00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: got to go and start. You got to get regular

8
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: check ups. This is where you start. Your libido starts. Well,

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: probably in your case, you're going to hope your libido

10
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: starts settling down. But how is the body going? Are

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: you feeling any aches and pains?

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: I'm doing pretty good. We're going to run yesterday with

13
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 2: my security guys. They think I'm keeping up paced.

14
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, Tom, I man, I don't want to sound

15
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 3: like I'm attacking you on your birthday, but I did

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 3: make a comment earlier that I thought it was quite

17
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 3: lazy that you put your wedding anniversary, which was yesterday

18
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 3: to your beautiful wife Helen. That you've paired it with

19
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 3: your birthday, so you obviously don't forget any special days.

20
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 2: That's absolutely correct, that's exactly what happened.

21
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 3: Maybe it's just clever. How was your wedding anniversary mate.

22
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: It was great. We've betten parliaed till a late last

23
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: night and back there again today. So no, it was lovely.

24
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: All the kids are around so great.

25
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: Oh that's beautiful. Actually you were you got to shout

26
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: out the other night because the premiere of the new

27
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: movie Tickets Ticket to Paradise with George Clooney and Julia Roberts.

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: You and Brad Hazard were there and the producers did

29
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: a special obviously letting them film here in Australia. Dom.

30
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: This is really exciting. I feel like we're getting a

31
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: lot more movies now, especially around New South Wales and

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: up in Queensland as well. Have we got any more

33
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: coming up?

34
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 2: We have a lot actually, and we put it during

35
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: the pandemic. It was nice they did that shout out

36
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: because during the pandemic we ran this covert operation to

37
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 2: keep bringing them in. Yes, because of the tourism dollars.

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 2: And it's not just obviously the benefit for making those

39
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: movies here to the industry, but for the local communities

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: that that that were based in, particularly during that difficult time,

41
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: made a real difference. So yeah, that was that was

42
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: That was nice. But again Sidney and you know, particularly

43
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 2: in the Northern Rivers and ed Byron. They're becoming they're

44
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: becoming great location. They were doing really well and that's bad.

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: Did you do you get personal phone calls from Rusty

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: every now and then because I know't poker face. Yeah,

47
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: his new movie was being filmed here in New South

48
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: Wales as well. Does he give you a call everything

49
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: and then done?

50
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 2: He doesn't, but I've seen him a couple of times

51
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: and we were up Port mccoff Harbor, ub at Coffs

52
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 2: Harbor where he's been doing some work as well. But yeah,

53
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: look there's a lot of interest. Chris Emma's worse than

54
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: those guys, so they're very interested in and they want

55
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 2: to make films here not overseas.

56
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 3: If you've got the power and the actual lead role

57
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 3: on the main actor, if you Chris Hemsworth, well he

58
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 3: can put his hand up and say yeah, I'll do

59
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 3: another Thoor, but we'll film it here. I mean they

60
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 3: were filming in Centennial Park last time.

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: Dom that's right, they were. I meet him there actually,

62
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: and yeah when we went out there for that. So

63
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 2: obviously we've got we're getting more and more great Australian

64
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 2: actors and they'd rather be here than overseas. So I

65
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: think it's great for our industry and great and great

66
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 2: to continue to develop.

67
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: Telling you, hey, Dom, can I ask you this question?

68
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: Do you get a public holiday tomorrow as well?

69
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 2: Well? I'm going down for the memorial service in Cambra

70
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: in Cambra tomorrow, so I'll be down there right.

71
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 3: What is what is the roll out tomorrow?

72
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 1: Dom?

73
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: Well, I think all the Prime Minister flies in from

74
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: I think he just literally flies in on the morning

75
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: and it's all every premiere and their partners will be

76
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: down there. So no, and I think former prime ministers

77
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: as well, so it'd be it'd be a very special moment,

78
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: I think. So, you know, the way that Australia has

79
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: run a lot of memorials for the Claire I Menages

80
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: is obviously a very special person and the connection to

81
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 2: Australia and the service I think. You know, I think

82
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: in my role right that it's difficult. You know in

83
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: politics you kind of moved through the role and of

84
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: doing something like that for over seventy ordinary, isn't it extraordinary? Yeah?

85
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: It's a phenomena.

86
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: Premier.

87
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 2: I don't want to be a Debbie downer on your birthday.

88
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: But the double demerits like, we're pretty heavy handed in

89
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: New South Wales, aren't we.

90
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: Look look, it was a controversial decision. I accept that,

91
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: but we would have had to overturn the regulation. Every

92
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: state that has double demerits has it in place. Bilik Sarah,

93
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: you don't speed, you won't get a fine and you

94
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 2: won't leave your point.

95
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: That is true.

96
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: And if I don't try and change the song on

97
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 2: the Spotify while I'm driving, I get that.

98
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you are stitching at and he's another I've got

99
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: another event for you.

100
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: I really appreciate it on my birthday.

101
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: Birthday. He's another one for you. Now we know that

00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: go rolling the arm over because Tom, I don't know

106
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: if you've been told, but we are locked in for

107
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: our backyard cricket game at Kira Billy House. Anthony albanezy Is,

108
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: the Prime Minister, has given us the all clear. We

109
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: would love for you to be there and get involved

110
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: and show us what you like with the willow well.

111
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 2: I'd love to come and the guys in the Office

112
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: of Race. We were at Parliament that day. But I'm

113
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: going to try and get see what i can do

114
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: to move a couple of things around, a bit of

115
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: this bit of less medium pay. But I was over

116
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 2: in I was over an India recent aount a trading mission,

117
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 2: and he was over there and we had these and

118
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: we had there was the Odest sixteen team from Mumbai.

119
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: So we were playing. We were doing a training session. Yeah,

120
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: I thought I was going pretty well right, falling following

121
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: good medium pace to Killy. Anyway, one ballobawl was just

122
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: an absolute shocker, all right, that's the one that Channel

123
00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 2: nine played all over.

124
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 3: It's not fair. It's really not fair. This is that

125
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 3: they'll stitch you up no matter what they will.

126
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: John Howard.

127
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you think you're nervous Anthony Aber. This is

128
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: the first time he has to bowl in front of

129
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: the cameras like that. That is huge for a prime minister.

130
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: Dom absolutely, but he's home, home grounded, Dannie, Yes, not sure.
