They've been 66 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 2: winning so many awards. 67 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some great whiskeys down there now, and some 68 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 3: great gins. But I actually teamed up with the guys 69 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 3: from mckenry's. 70 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. 71 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: What they have got that's a little bit more special 72 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 3: than everyone else is that they've got this incredible pure 73 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 3: water coming out of the mountain and they actually harvest 74 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 3: that water and then that's how they make their gin. 75 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 3: And yeah, right, so I went down there, spent a 76 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: nearly a week with the guys and and sort of 77 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: you know, came up concoction of gin. We doubled juniper, 78 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 3: so it's quite quite strong in juniper, and then we 79 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 3: put a little bit of some native in it, so 80 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: some lemon thyme, and there was also some kunzia which 81 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 3: is which is a. 82 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: Herb okay, and. 83 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 3: Then we came up with gin. And we only had 84 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 3: one hundred bottles of whiskey. So I'm not sure how 85 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 3: many are left. But if you if you're lucky enough, 86 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 3: you can get onto Amazon dot com dot Au and 87 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 3: google Matt Moran. 88 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: And you're interesting. 89 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 4: Matt Moran's tip to avoid COVID.

He's not a doctor, but I'll follow his load. 91 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: When we had Dicky on it, you know, Richard Wilkins 92 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: well as well Maddie when he because he was one 93 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: of the first to get COVID in Australia and he 94 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: was asymptomatic for three weeks, had no symptoms for three weeks, 95 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: and we still swear it's the amount of gin that 96 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 2: he's gotunning through his body. That's killing off any disease 97 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: that's trying to attack his body. 98 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: That makes sense, you know, because I've been to the 99 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 3: Logis with him a couple of times. 100 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: It's just a barrel. He's a barrel of gin with 101 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: a head on it. 102 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 3: And even at the airport in the morning the next day. 103 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: Hey, the Great Australian Bakeoff?

So 106 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 3: we filmed that late last year, which was fantastic. We 107 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 3: had a couple of years off. So the same team's back, 108 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 3: Mill Butter and Claire and Maggie of course, and yeah, 109 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: and that was fantastic. I think the break was good 110 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: because we've got some great bakers this time. And so 111 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 3: that starts on the twenty seventh of January on Fox 112 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 3: Civil Lifestyle. And yeah, no, it's a great one.

And I had a little bit of a 123 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 3: list of people that I drop it off. And the 124 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 3: thing is, once you actually give me my a over 125 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 3: for bread, they kind of expect it every week exactly. 126 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. I walked past the Opera Bar 127 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: the other day. 128 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: It was good to see people out the front there 129 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: just enjoying that view and having a couple of drinks. 130 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: Mattie, So it must be good.

I 136 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 3: think of what we normally should. Places like Opera bar's 137 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 3: great because it's outside and people feel a little bit 138 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 3: more secure.
