1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: He's busy and with Richie.

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 2: God, I've just completely forgotten what we're about to do.

3
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 3: We're our chat that we had with Russell Crowe now

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 3: the reason we do have to bring this up. And

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 3: we had a brilliant chat with Russell Crowe. Some of

6
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 3: the stories that he has given us were priceless. They're

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 3: up in our Facebook page right now. But the one

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 3: that we didn't pick up was his chat that he

9
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 3: had about Ed Sheeran. We know those two were good mates,

10
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 3: but we didn't know how they met. He also revealed

11
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 3: in this chat, or supposedly revealed.

12
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: In this chat. We didn't pick it up.

13
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 3: It was picked up by an English newspaper, The Sun

14
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 3: that Russell refers to Ed's girlfriend.

15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 2: As his fiance. Was this a slip of the tongue?

16
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: Does he know something no one else knows? Sir? These

17
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: are the questions was engaged.

18
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 4: So that's where I didn't react because when he said it,

19
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 4: I was just looking and nodded no.

20
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: But that hasn't been.

21
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 4: Revealed, right, But I didn't think that because they've been

22
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 4: together the frages and always talks about her so glowingly.

23
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 4: I just maybe that's too No, I reckon he would know.

24
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 4: I think he's let it out.

25
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: Have we still got his coffee cup as well? We

26
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: do still have his coffee cup?

27
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 3: Yeah right, well we'll do that tomorrow where people have

28
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 3: to guess what kind of coffee Russell crowe ordered.

29
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: A great game. It's a really tough one. All right,

30
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: Let's have a listen. This is this is Russell's story

31
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: about Ed. We thought we'd replay it for you this

32
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 2: morning because it's such a great story. And of course

33
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: listen for how he refers to Ed's girlfriend. We were

34
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: lucky enough for Russell.

35
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 3: You came along to the Opera House for Nova's Red

36
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: Room that night to see Ed and Whipper and I

37
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 3: still one of the biggest regrets of our lives.

38
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: Hard to talk about, to be honest, when we went

39
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: home unbelieved, Well, we had to be up at four

40
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning.

41
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: Edward was on Sunrise that morning singing, what do you

42
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: guys have to do? Push a button and say, oh, Matt,

43
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: please take over.

44
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: A bit of honesty with the situation about this thing.

45
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 3: How did that friendship with Ed start? How did you

46
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,279
Speaker 3: guys become mates?

47
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: Well, just through people that we mutually know to start

48
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: with and he was on tour here and he was

49
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: getting a bit burnt out, so he came up and

50
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: stayed at the farm and just got some sleep, you know,

51
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: and then we just you know, became conversational Matson and

52
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: he has subsequently gone back to the farm with his

53
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 1: fiance for more time and stuff, you know. But that

54
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: night in Sydney, he's going, I've got this big tour

55
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: coming up, right, so i can't do this thing where

56
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm like on water. You know, I've got to be

57
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: able to have a drink after the show. It's sort

58
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: of like, you know, help me relax and something like that.

59
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: I can't be doing five or six years a night.

60
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: It's going to be it's going to be like I'll

61
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: be twice the man after the tour, you know. And

62
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: so I said, look, this is what I've been doing lately,

63
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: you know. So I showed him I've got a water jug.

64
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: In fact, I took all of the things that I

65
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: needed to show him backstage, and because I just I

66
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: just wanted to do it right way to say, here's

67
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: the jug, full to the top with ice. Take your

68
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: bottle of silver petron and empty the entire contents over

69
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: the ice, and now you wait and he's like, what

70
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: do you might last weight? You've got to got to

71
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: give it like ten to fifteen minutes, so we can't

72
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: have a drink now. So just so we had a

73
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: little you know, weight within. I put a little bit

74
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: of passion fruit on top, stir around, right. Then I

75
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: take that mixture, pour it over fresh ice, right, and

76
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 1: a little touch of water. Oh okay, So now you've

77
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: got the ice is sunk into the tequila. Right, You've

78
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: actually added fresh water as well, and you've got fresh ice.

79
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: So there's a large amount of water in this. And

80
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: when he SIPs it, he's like, oh wow, that's really

81
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: light and it's refreshing, and you can do two or

82
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: three of those again. So we proceed to actually knock

83
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: off the entire bottle of tequila. Right. But he you know,

84
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: he's texting me at five o'clock in the morning on

85
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: his way to Sunrises, going, I feel fine, you know,

86
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: I got a few hours sleep and everything. You know

87
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: what's the secret, I said, mate, it's the water, because

88
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: you're hydrating drinking, so you can have a little bit

89
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: of a drink, but you're not going to get the

90
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: killer hangover. You know, and now again I saw him

91
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: in London recently, you know, and he's like, man, you

92
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: got me so like in so much trouble. And I'm like,

93
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 1: what are you talking about it? He goes, well, you know,

94
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: I went to New York, right and I had to

95
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: have this dinner with this Rolling Stone guy as journalist,

96
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: you know, And he said, so what you know, what

97
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: would you like to drink? And I'll show you that

98
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: Russell Craig taught me. Hees, and it took him a

99
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: while to find the passion fruit. But you know, I'm

100
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: pouring the tequila the same amount, you know as you

101
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: poured right and putting the passion fruit on top, and

102
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: he's drinking it straight. So he's having four or five

103
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: ounces of tequila peer glass. No, So he thinks, you know,

104
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: he's had a normal night. He wakes up the next morning,

105
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: speaks to his security bloke keV. You know, good good man. Yes, yeah,

106
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: last night was pretty good. I feel a bit rough

107
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,119
Speaker 1: and don't think ke Kev's like stony faced, what's wrong?

108
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: And he's like, last night was all right?

109
00:04:58,520 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 3: Was it?

110
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: And he said, yeah, wasn't it? He goes, you took

111
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: your shoes off in the middle of it. We're in Manhattan,

112
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: We're one of those fancy restaurants and you've taken your

113
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: shoes for socks off? What's going on with that? And

114
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: everybody's looking at you? And then you licked that woman's face. Kidding,

115
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: It's like I did what the first time in his

116
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: life he's experienced like this three hour blackout? And he's going,

117
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: what did you do to me? I said, I said, well,

118
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: did you pour it over ice? Did? I? What? Listen? Edward?

119
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: Edward.

120
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: The principle this is your father's piece of wisdom I

121
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: was passing on to you is the hydration aspect, So.

122
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 2: Stop licking faces.

123
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 3: Think I think the best thing about that story is

124
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: Russell Crowe rocking up to the Sydney Opera House with
