Speaker 5: half as well. But in fairness you are very good,
Speaker 5: like as Cooper said, you soldier on well, like you
Speaker 5: get on with it. In fairness, though, you do treat
Speaker 5: yourself horrendously, like the first day you're sick. For instance,
Speaker 5: here you went Jimmy trained in the gym and it's
Speaker 5: like freaking fifteen degrees at the moment, Like, you know

Speaker 3: Yeah wow, you are an inspiration everyone.
Speaker 6: That's why Matt never complains about being unwell becoose. He
Speaker 6: doesn't want to miss out on any party time, just
Speaker 6: like the time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh the lip your lip was hanging on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've told this story.
Speaker 6: And he didn't want to have to go to that
Speaker 6: hospital because like then he wouldn't be able to go
Speaker 6: out for a beer.
Speaker 1: Could I just say something, right, just change the subject
Speaker 1: for one minute. I'm a little consumed with the house,
Speaker 1: the house next door to us, Bob, the next house.
Speaker 1: My god, amazing people. I noticed there's cameras in the house,
Speaker 1: and they have cameras at their place to make sure
Speaker 1: you know there's breaking in. I was laying in bed

Speaker 1: solo mission, Han solo, literally, Han solo.
Speaker 2: Can you I threw up the throat goat before? Can
Speaker 2: you tell the people the story of what happened?
Speaker 3: Because you come home and told me you apparently you
Speaker 3: didn't know what the term throatcoat gained.
Speaker 1: So the genesis of when I heard the term throat
Speaker 1: goat is when you and all your mates went up
Speaker 1: to the hunta valley and Dad organized a bus and
Speaker 1: made of his who was the driver, Sternie Sternie, And
Speaker 1: you said to the boards, you said, you said, to
Speaker 1: the boys, this is Sternie. He is the throat goat.
Speaker 1: Now you said, I don't know. I just felt right,
Speaker 1: I just did it. So I thought, yeah, okay, it's
Speaker 1: a good term, like throat goat, like it's the gat,
Speaker 1: but he's the throat goat. Yeah, And I just thought
Speaker 1: it was a right. I thought that's I thought that
Speaker 1: was it. And so I've said it to people at
Speaker 1: the time, like throat goat. I've had a few strange looks.
Speaker 1: But last week in sen it really dawned on me
Speaker 1: because what had happened. We've got our audio technician who's
Speaker 1: an Ecuadorian, Raoul, and Raoul was over the moon. Ecuador
Speaker 1: had really had some really great performances in the fifth
Speaker 1: World Cup, and we're going, mate, rolled at the call
Speaker 1: of the goal, go the boys goal, roll all you
Speaker 1: the goat. You're the goat, And I thought I'll throw
Speaker 1: it in. I said, roll all you are the throat?
Speaker 1: Got right, and everything just went starlight and they were
Speaker 1: and I said, okay, let's go to all break and
Speaker 1: I'm there going eight. Are you serious? They said, well,
Speaker 1: I'm going to cut that out of the podcast. Why
Speaker 1: They went, You're called roll all the throat goat?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I went, do you know what a throat goat is? Oh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Cooper says, He goes, no, mate, do you know what
Speaker 1: a throat coat is?
Speaker 5: And what is it?
Speaker 3: It's like they are the goat of It's like giving
Speaker 3: really good head job.
Speaker 1: I just want to say right to Rowl's family in Ecuador,
Speaker 1: a Quito, Ecuador. Your your your, your beloved one is
Speaker 1: not over here giving people blood jobs.
Speaker 5: Okay, I did not, I remember you.
Speaker 3: You also you also said, who did you say? You
Speaker 3: said it on the show one time you have one
Speaker 3: of the boys and you remember.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there was something I was just about to say.
Speaker 5: We've had this before. We've actually spoken about reverse influencing
Speaker 5: your child, but in.
Speaker 4: Reverse child influencing the parent.
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly right. So you've had something like that happened before.
Speaker 5: You went on air with a player and you said
Speaker 5: something that Cooper said everyone went.
Speaker 3: Oh, it might you know it might have been throw
Speaker 3: you said on the Sunday Night Show one time at
Speaker 3: last year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we just didn't. I don't know why because
Speaker 2: I said all the time, but who was the player?
Speaker 2: I can't remember.
Speaker 1: I think it was Joe Voyage. He used the throat, goat.
Speaker 3: But it also works in the context of if they're
Speaker 3: a real good, a real good singer, you say like, yeah.
Speaker 4: The throat, Is that why you called me a throw
Speaker 4: coat every now and again?
Speaker 2: Definitely don't fully don't use it.
Speaker 6: What we're going to say, what are some other things
Speaker 6: that have been misunderstood.
Speaker 4: Got any others?
Speaker 5: Oh, there's a there's a mile out there. Do we
Speaker 5: want to go near the personal?
Speaker 1: I remember remember your great friends of ours kath Martin.

Speaker 1: a talk. And and Alan Jones, the race car driver,
Speaker 1: Alan Jones had just the world title. And they said
Speaker 1: to one of the one of the students, you're gonna
Speaker 1: get up there and talk about the Grand Prix. He
Speaker 1: got up there and was talking about the Grand Pricks.
Speaker 2: Really, Oh, there's like a there's another turn of phrases.
Speaker 2: Someone always well.
Speaker 5: There's a big difference between effect and effect. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 5: that I go well, I still just just throw the
Speaker 5: dice on that one.
Speaker 2: I think, really, what is the difference?
Speaker 4: Affect is like an emotional response effect, an effect like
Speaker 4: Vicero hit you in the face.
Speaker 1: The effect is pain. Effect is different.
Speaker 4: Effect is like it's emotional.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's right, yeah, pain your effects? No.
Speaker 6: I think the effect of a tranquil like a of
Speaker 6: a taser on you, that's an e effect.
Speaker 2: Well, look, we are sounding awfully stupid.
Speaker 4: Even effect is like affection.
Speaker 5: How about I get it effect for you?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you google it.
Speaker 6: It's like the effect of him being nasty.
Speaker 2: Makes me so.
Speaker 3: But then what effects?

Speaker 6: stone is that it moves.

Speaker 1: up and sing that song. But I'm still the saying car,
Speaker 1: I'm going to say cock and just do it so
Speaker 1: peak it up. And all the nuns were playing the
Speaker 1: like playing the piano and that he was going, I'll
Speaker 1: take you riding in my car. Car.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the teachers, mister Henry after and said Phil
Speaker 1: little yard, he goes, you were saying car.
Speaker 2: Little fist pump. Did you get a date?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I got to hear.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 5: Effect usually it means to influence something. So the rain
Speaker 5: will affect our planes. His speech affected the crowd deeply.
Speaker 5: That's a effect. And then effect it means the result
Speaker 5: of something. So the rain had a big effect on
Speaker 5: our plan on our planes. Okay or plans?
Speaker 2: Clear effect?
Speaker 4: What about what about inquiry and inquiry? You know the difference?
Speaker 3: Don't inquiries like you I n is to inquire about
Speaker 3: something like him here to inquire.
Speaker 6: The other way is to inquire about something. An inquiry
Speaker 6: is actually an inquisition into something.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, is this way? We could do this all day?
Speaker 1: What's the difference between amal and amil?
Speaker 4: Is the little purple vile thing around point and stuff?
Speaker 1: And is George Cloys you're an idiot?
Speaker 5: I can we can we talking about a bit of
Speaker 5: social media stuff. This week, Cuber John's was spotted on
Speaker 5: someone's feed and in the week I want to bring
Speaker 5: up that her feed had something to do with the
Speaker 5: toilet roll that Cooper John's sort of screwed around in
Speaker 5: the house.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well we didn't leave. Alluded to the fact that
Speaker 2: he's locked up now Coober John's. So we went hard.
Speaker 3: We had launched last week. Yep, a lot of our
Speaker 3: listeners got behind it. A lot of our listeners.
Speaker 2: Sledging me actually in the comments.
Speaker 4: Well, just your girlfriend's got bigg muscles.
Speaker 2: Then you do a lot of a lot of chat
Speaker 2: like that, a lot of chat like.
Speaker 4: She's fitter than you.
Speaker 3: That's not a funny one. Just a lot of stuff like,
Speaker 3: you know, he couldn't be an athlete of his own,
Speaker 3: so I had to had to get to get one.
Speaker 2: Stuff like that, why are you a green?
Speaker 1: Yeah it's true.
Speaker 2: Really because the other day, what's the effect of them?
Speaker 1: What about this chat? Like lots of times young lovers
Speaker 1: will sort of go and have a coffee together or
Speaker 1: go and do stuff. Guess what Poppy and Kuba did.
Speaker 1: They went and had to kick together. It was just
Speaker 1: as Cooper left the room. It wasn't the first time
Speaker 1: Jemma said to Jack and I, I just don't see
Speaker 1: Cooper like as any kind of athlete.
Speaker 5: Just when he got so for listeners that sort of
Speaker 5: know the timeframe of when me and Keeper finished up.
Speaker 5: I started going out with Gemma after we met Cooper
Speaker 5: had both retired. She sucks and like, we started properly
Speaker 5: going out about five months after Cooper had been on
Speaker 5: his like had been played his last game, and he's
Speaker 5: pretty much been on a five month bender, right, so
Speaker 5: his body probably wasn't what he used to be. And
Speaker 5: she honestly goes, I can't imagine Cooper doing exercise three years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a whole new person to tell my stories.
Speaker 4: And she's really kind to you, just like her.
Speaker 2: Yeah, girl, what she's is there stuff she can work on?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Probably just hanging out in your room though there what.
Speaker 1: Is I never know what you're doing in there?
Speaker 5: What are you doing in there?
Speaker 2: We're playing board games?
Speaker 1: Students. We used to hang upstairs all the time, flatmates. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean they.
Speaker 3: Would imagine what imagine what they're saying about you, So
Speaker 3: you know what's funny, Like obviously when you you got
Speaker 3: to introduce. When you get a partner, you got to
Speaker 3: introduce some like the friendship groups and obviously your family
Speaker 3: and whatnot.
Speaker 2: But I took her into the storm Sheds at the
Speaker 2: cob John's cut.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, And I've introduced Poppy to a few of
Speaker 3: the boys, but I was really excited to introduce her
Speaker 3: to Belly A.
Speaker 2: Craig Bellamy. You know, someone's had a big impact my life,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I've brought her in, I mean, Harry talking Billy's
Speaker 3: come back from the press Commons. I went by like,
Speaker 3: this is this is my new partner, Pobby, my not me,
Speaker 3: this is my new partner Poppy. And then and really
Speaker 3: it goes and he's looking at her. He's looking at
Speaker 3: her up and and at the st like looking behind
Speaker 3: her and that, and I thought, look at I said, jeez,
Speaker 3: you old horn dog, you having a decent looking And
Speaker 3: he goes, well, I can't see the guy dog, so
Speaker 3: you must you mustn't be blind.
Speaker 2: What are you doing with this idiot?
Speaker 3: And that's actually pretty good for you. But I have
Speaker 3: heard him regurgitate that same joke to like forty yeah,
Speaker 3: And I said, hey, you've got to stop using that same.
Speaker 5: And now I'm going to regurgitate it forever. It's not.
Speaker 2: It is actually pretty good. I was like pretty good
Speaker 2: from the old fossil.
Speaker 1: I love it. I tell you what to say something.
Speaker 1: The fifth of World Cup has been senacial.
Speaker 4: I have not watched one ball.
Speaker 1: Trish some of some of the games. I mean the
Speaker 1: other day Mexico versus you versus England Mexico.
Speaker 4: Now that was very nice.
Speaker 1: Was it was an insane game. And then today Man
Speaker 1: Egypt to nail up against Argentina should have been three
Speaker 1: nail up, but two nail up, and then twenty minutes
Speaker 1: ago and make the back and beat them three too.
Speaker 1: It's been it's been an amazing World Cup.
Speaker 4: But the VA what are the surprises. I haven't followed
Speaker 4: anything so.
Speaker 1: Well, there's not.
Speaker 5: There were a few that made it through, but they're
Speaker 5: sort of out now right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's yeah, some big surprises in the early one.
Speaker 1: Some of some of the minnows have done did really
Speaker 1: really well. Minns sides like.
Speaker 2: You know, miniscule countries or something.
Speaker 1: Well, a minnow may can be a big country, but
Speaker 1: they don't really play that sport. It'd be like like
Speaker 1: South Africa playing rugby rubby. League, the Rubby League, World Cup.
Speaker 1: I know there, but I mean what it is this
Speaker 1: year was forty eight teams that went down to the
Speaker 1: round of thirty two, and so you had sides like
Speaker 1: New Zealand in this World Cup. They actually played a
Speaker 1: really good brand of football New Zealand they were good.
Speaker 1: And some of the other African some African countries that
Speaker 1: were expected to do nothing did really really be held
Speaker 1: there aren't.
Speaker 2: It has been. People are like, I'm not massive.
Speaker 3: I enjoy the sport of soccer, but not really here
Speaker 3: in Australia's look. I like the charade of like overseas
Speaker 3: soccer pageantry, but like the World Cup stuff is brilliant.
Speaker 2: Like what Trump did to get that player off.
Speaker 3: Getting band so a player banned him, a player got
Speaker 3: red carded and he basically a US player, a US player,
Speaker 3: and then he was supposed to miss the following game.
Speaker 2: He didn't tell them what to do, but he just
Speaker 2: if you're getting if you're getting a call.
Speaker 3: From Donald Trump, he rings FIFA and just said, you know,
Speaker 3: I don't think that was a I don't think he
Speaker 3: deserves a red coat.
Speaker 2: A little learned to miss a game and they overturned it.
Speaker 2: And they just overturned it.
Speaker 1: It's unprecedented. The leader of the free world just flexing
Speaker 1: his mustard form and in corruption uh in the past. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can clearly say that, yes they have so who
Speaker 1: gets the World Cup? All those sort of things, guitar, saldi, ravia,
Speaker 1: all these things. It's been proven and this one is
Speaker 1: just another one because okay, just excuse me, sorry everyone,
Speaker 1: not just because Donald Trump with is the fact, there
Speaker 1: is no doubt in the world. I mean, they put
Speaker 1: they put the World Cup on in America, in the
Speaker 1: USA because they want to make football a major sport thing.
Speaker 1: At the moment, it's well behind the NFL, the NBA,
Speaker 1: it's still a big sport into Miami and whatnot. But
Speaker 1: it would have been the dream result for FIFA to
Speaker 1: get the USA in the final four. They were desperate
Speaker 1: to get them there.
Speaker 5: That they's just a massive sporting market, right there are
Speaker 5: a nation of sports fans that have their given sports NBA, NBL, sorry, NBL, NBA,
Speaker 5: and NFL, but like that's a market. Like even the
Speaker 5: NFL am looking at over here, even just trying to
Speaker 5: get with that Vegas game, just trying to get point
Speaker 5: five percent of the audience. We do damage.
Speaker 1: You look at the money in that in the Major
Speaker 1: League Soccer there like the MLS, it's not you know,
Speaker 1: it's about number five in the list of sports, but
Speaker 1: some of the wages.
Speaker 3: Messy again and like Beckham's and owner and it like
Speaker 3: they're doing a lot to try to grow sport in general,
Speaker 3: let alone soccer.
Speaker 1: But Karma got them com because they're playing Belgium. Belgian
Speaker 1: is very very good side and they just gave bell
Speaker 1: Um enough immunitient. Belgium just wiped them for I saw
Speaker 1: that very very good side.
Speaker 5: What's that word you said, karma?
Speaker 1: Karma?
Speaker 5: It's like in that song by boy George car Macamellion.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the t camacamellion and I'm literally how it's spelleda kameleion.
Speaker 2: And we spoke about during the week the TV rights
Speaker 2: deal as well. While we're on Sport.
Speaker 3: I saw some stuff during the week you had. You
Speaker 3: had a good stat on like what they're saying that
Speaker 3: potentially the Sally Cap you got twenty million, They reckon
Speaker 3: it's going to hit twenty million, so the.
Speaker 5: Next ratchets are going to be freaking huge.
Speaker 1: To let people know what that is, or Jack was
Speaker 1: talking about a ratchet. What what managers start to do now,
Speaker 1: just think about this is it'll be if you've got
Speaker 1: a player and they'll say, right, oh, my player is
Speaker 1: on ten percent of the salary cap. Right, let's say
Speaker 1: the salary cap is twelve million. They said, we want
Speaker 1: out a player to beyond teen percent of the cap,
Speaker 1: which is one point too. But then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: now with the salary cap going up to twenty million,
Speaker 1: that same player next you will be on two million dollars.
Speaker 1: What it isn't pople know? It's not a renegotiation. This
Speaker 1: just gets written in to their contract. It just gives up.
Speaker 5: They've been written in since COVID, So like I think
Speaker 5: because that obviously the timeline of the CBA, the deal
Speaker 5: getting done has been to and fro and all the like.
Speaker 5: The last CBA like just after COVID that was done
Speaker 5: like that took ages to get done, right, and this
Speaker 5: one like prior to that, everything every deal just about
Speaker 5: Like I think, if you're a manager doing his job
Speaker 5: and signing a player on a two or three year deal,
Speaker 5: like if you don't put a ratchet in, you're probably
Speaker 5: not doing a disservice to the player.
Speaker 1: Well, I'll just say this. I'm not going to name
Speaker 1: the player because I really like him and it's not
Speaker 1: his Fault's a great deal that was done. He's on
Speaker 1: twelve per cent of the salary cap, so the moment
Speaker 1: goes up to twenty million, he's on two point four million.
Speaker 1: But it's like, so be it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's the same percentage of it, doesn't It
Speaker 3: almost doesn't matter. You shouldn't look at it on how
Speaker 3: much the players on should be look at it the
Speaker 3: percentage of the salary go. It doesn't really matter. If
Speaker 3: he's still on the same percentage of the salary cap
Speaker 3: he's one of their best play.
Speaker 4: Well, if he's one of their best players.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well your input on the squad should be that,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, like that reflect Yeah, exactly right.
Speaker 1: And the rumors just keep abounding that P and G
Speaker 1: will get three or four of the Panthers boys really
Speaker 1: some of their top blokes. And you look at Sellar
Speaker 1: Crabs twenty million, Well, P and G they're on that
Speaker 1: forty me in that first ten years.
Speaker 4: Did we say it on the podcast? Jack? You actually
Speaker 4: brought it up. You thought you had a bit of
Speaker 4: a theory you think that the the P and G
Speaker 4: Chiefs are going for a group, like.
Speaker 6: A cluster of players, show that the whole families and
Speaker 6: the friendship groups and everything move over.
Speaker 4: Said that there's an instant community, Well.
Speaker 5: There's that, but I just personally like if you're I'm
Speaker 5: not even thinking from the P and G Chiefs perspective.
Speaker 5: I'm thinking if you look at the best team of
Speaker 5: the last six years that's handled the COVID period, the
Speaker 5: post COVID period and the COVID periods. You look at
Speaker 5: Penrith and then you go, You've got all these players
Speaker 5: that are on good money right for the average Australian wage,
Speaker 5: but they could be earning more at lesser clubs. Let's
Speaker 5: be honest, yes, and the next move for a lot
Speaker 5: of them would be to get there, you know, before
Speaker 5: their careers and make some money. Right, And they're they've
Speaker 5: got the rare opportunity now to not only make more
Speaker 5: money but continue their legacy at a strong club with
Speaker 5: the same players, like they'd be silly not to do it.
Speaker 1: Well, to add to that, Ivan's coaching next year, right
Speaker 1: and not stepping stepping away. That's if you've got the model.
Speaker 1: So P and G got this certain model, but the
Speaker 1: first people who come in have to make that model work.
Speaker 4: Who are they having as their coach? So they've signed
Speaker 4: a coach.
Speaker 1: P and G chiefs, Yes, But what I mean is,
Speaker 1: you know, like basically you know that with Ivan going,
Speaker 1: it's almostly say that is the end of the pen
Speaker 1: But that team.
Speaker 3: It's like the Big Three stopping playing, you know. I mean,
Speaker 3: even though it's just a passing of a like the
Speaker 3: next Penrith generation might carry on.
Speaker 2: A legacy of dynasty.
Speaker 3: We don't know that for sure, but the Nathan clear
Speaker 3: reason whatnot if he doesn't stay at Penrith.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like trying to explain it to people is like
Speaker 5: like a player going to a lesser club. Yes, you
Speaker 5: might be on big money, but your expectation goes up
Speaker 5: and the likelihood of success goes down, and that can
Speaker 5: like it can't be underestimated. Surely making bank, But if
Speaker 5: it's a three year deal and he's a playing poor
Speaker 5: and you're in good money, you're going to be copping
Speaker 5: the like you've seen it in the past. You'll cop
Speaker 5: a lot of heat from people and fans and that
Speaker 5: plays a part.
Speaker 3: And you ask you ask any player that leaves like
Speaker 3: cashes in and goes to a bad club on four years.
Speaker 3: Literally a year or two in, they're like, it's no
Speaker 3: longer about the money. They're like they couldn't care how
Speaker 3: much they are on. They're almost just like, I just
Speaker 3: like don't want to feel like this anymore because they
Speaker 3: can't go to the shop. They literally feel shit about
Speaker 3: themselves and they feel like they're just ranked players because
Speaker 3: they can't do what they can do.
Speaker 1: A lot of of course they come from successful clubs.
Speaker 1: They take success for Greenock. That's right, and that what
Speaker 1: it feels like to be Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So even like say, let's just say someone who
Speaker 5: at the Panthers who might be under I reckon he's
Speaker 5: on probably like eight hundred right MOSTLYTA for example, Like
Speaker 5: he could go to a lesser side and get close
Speaker 5: to a million as one of the like the premiere
Speaker 5: front rowers in the competition, but he could he's on
Speaker 5: one hundred. Now he could be on that same salary
Speaker 5: in P and G bet a different team with the
Speaker 5: same group of players and make double bubble, Like I
Speaker 5: just don't. I just feel like that's just too good
Speaker 5: at like being the best team in the last six
Speaker 5: years just too good a carrot for them to throw away.
Speaker 6: I just I just want a clarity on double bubbles
Speaker 6: chewing double bubble make it bank.
Speaker 1: Well, someone's getting kick that ass to.
Speaker 5: The highest percentage. What are you getting taxed? Like forty
Speaker 5: four percent or something like that at the moment. So essentially,
Speaker 5: if you're on that money and not getting taxed, you're
Speaker 5: making double bubble.
Speaker 1: Say a dog double.
Speaker 4: Bubble such I just I would go and play for
Speaker 4: the P and G chiefs.
Speaker 3: I think double bubble Michael, Yes, very ship gets double
Speaker 3: bubble jack title of the podcast.
Speaker 1: Double bubble Throat.
Speaker 4: Okay, one of my beautiful nephews.
Speaker 6: In traveling around which you've got a couple of dead ships,
Speaker 6: Ah Simon Simon's dead ship.
Speaker 2: I'll seek you're thinking of the other one thinking the
Speaker 2: mats I'll know them.
Speaker 6: And he brought up a post of the day and
Speaker 6: he said, oh, look who's walking out of the restaurant.
Speaker 6: And I'm looking and I had to do a double
Speaker 6: take and do another look, and I went and I
Speaker 6: sent a message going, is that Michael Jordan is not
Speaker 6: moving in Italy? I think it was either Capri or Sorrento.
Speaker 6: I'm not sure.
Speaker 4: And then in the next post in his stories, he.
Speaker 6: Goes, what a gentleman said, Hi, he said, then when
Speaker 6: he was leaving, he was sitting at the table behind him,
Speaker 6: and when he was leaving and gave him a tap on.
Speaker 4: The shoulder and said here. But he finished this and
Speaker 4: it was a bottle of a Keiler no way, and
Speaker 4: it was Michael Jordan. Michael John was moving.
Speaker 1: As Jordan was leaving, just tapped him and said, Amen,
Speaker 1: the rest is yours.
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool. Michael, Like, I I don't get he's
Speaker 2: the throat.
Speaker 1: Jordan.
Speaker 5: He may double bubble that.
Speaker 1: Dog.
Speaker 2: I don't think there is anyone.
Speaker 3: I would I'd really get starstruck for in the sporting world.
Speaker 3: But Michael Jordan like, I like, I've met Tom Brady
Speaker 3: in that you have to yeh yeah. But Jordan's and
Speaker 3: shack yeah, big shack shot at the diesel.
Speaker 5: But he's like Michael Jordan's like he's the white unicorn.
Speaker 5: Like you can't, you can't even I've heard Dana White
Speaker 5: even talk about being nervous to ask for his autograph,
Speaker 5: like on a on a card he had and the
Speaker 5: value of the card would go up exponent like one
Speaker 5: hundred times. Right, It's like one of his rookie cards
Speaker 5: that are like in mint condition. And even he says,
Speaker 5: I won't I can't ask.
Speaker 2: I think this.
Speaker 3: There's just something mysterious about Jordan, like because I think
Speaker 3: Shack and like Brady they did, they do a lot
Speaker 3: of me Bradey's in't the thing. So when he when
Speaker 3: he come out here and was lucky enough to meet him,
Speaker 3: it was like, oh, you kind of see so much
Speaker 3: of these guys on TV and different stuff, but Jordan's.
Speaker 4: Jordan's a little cranky potentially, bet He's just.
Speaker 3: Mysterious, like since he stopped playing, and obviously he's got
Speaker 3: the air Jordan brand, so he's like he's just making back.
Speaker 3: He doesn't need to do commentary or anything. He's almost
Speaker 3: just like disappeared. And then you see him again when
Speaker 3: he did the Last Dance documentary. So it's just like this,
Speaker 3: like Jack said, he's like a man.
Speaker 1: Be Ben Hogarth and Leon the two producers their NBA
Speaker 1: man And I was talking to them about it to
Speaker 1: amount of different guys, and I said, made Jordan's Jordan's
Speaker 1: the number one, right, And I said, I.
Speaker 4: Don't think remember last time he went into the basketball anyone.
Speaker 1: Jordan's number one. Honestly, it's just got the put it
Speaker 1: back on you. You've got no idea. When Charles Barkley
Speaker 1: laughs and says, if you think Lebron's better than you know,
Speaker 1: you're kidding me. I'm with Charles, like, I mean seriously anyway.
Speaker 1: But to think of it is with Jordans. We we
Speaker 1: saw Jordan on the Gatorade and the weedy boxes and
Speaker 1: that before we really got to really see him. Because
Speaker 1: you've got to understand that there wasn't there wasn't Fox
Speaker 1: Sports back in the day. There wasn't paid, It wasn't
Speaker 1: like that pay per view, that that sort of thing
Speaker 1: around in Australia. So you only got drip fed little
Speaker 1: bits from NBA and NFL, Like the ABC had a
Speaker 1: show with Don Lane one hour every week show on
Speaker 1: the NFL highlights. You never got any of the games.
Speaker 1: You didn't really get NBA games, and so all you
Speaker 1: had with the highlights occasionally of Jordan slam Donkey and
Speaker 1: so what you what you were handed was this mythological
Speaker 1: figure who never missed a basket anything like that. Now,
Speaker 1: the first time I sat and sat and nactually watched
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan play. I went, oh fuck, he does.
Speaker 5: Miss you know, you know, it's very much like it's
Speaker 5: like because he does our social media and stuff like
Speaker 5: that anymore and these days like it. No, he doesn't
Speaker 5: have it so like a lot of people like when
Speaker 5: you're that good and then that will not It's a
Speaker 5: bit like Pele, like even Soccer. Like I'm not a
Speaker 5: soccer fan or Mari Donna, but like Pele, I know
Speaker 5: exactly who Pela is. I know like enough about him
Speaker 5: to know that, like people what he's done in the game.
Speaker 5: Jordan's very similar in the fact that like because he
Speaker 5: was so good, but he doesn't overexpose himself. But that
Speaker 5: actually adds to the mystery. Whereas a lot of people
Speaker 5: like that are like goats of their sport over time
Speaker 5: will lose their relevance because they're not over exposing themselves.
Speaker 1: It's interesting to that Jack and I've spoken to YouTube
Speaker 1: bokes about this, and the big debate at the moment
Speaker 1: is MESSI the goat is the greatest of all time.
Speaker 1: For me, it will always be married Donna.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Debate between hang on one set before you get emotional,
Speaker 3: Oh no, you're good, now get it back in Yeah,
Speaker 3: you're good.
Speaker 1: Always the debate was Peal versus Mari Donna, And now
Speaker 1: the debate was is it was it Ronaldo for a
Speaker 1: bit he's dropped away. Yeah, everyone's saying pretty much, Messi's
Speaker 1: greatest of all time. Yeah, And the debate is always,
Speaker 1: like with soccer, people go, Messi is the greatest of
Speaker 1: all time. For me, Messi is a phenomenon, unbelievable, certainly
Speaker 1: in the top five at the very loost. But Maradonna
Speaker 1: was from another planet. You watch Maradona, the things he did. Man,
Speaker 1: he was from another planet. He was almost he was
Speaker 1: almost not human. He was so good.
Speaker 2: He's an alien.
Speaker 1: Dad, as Jack says, unicorn, Jack, you've got.
Speaker 3: You come on with a new segment today. Look, we've
Speaker 3: given you so many segments over the years, but you
Speaker 3: have been very excited. You've pitched this one to me
Speaker 3: and let's just see how it goes and explaining to
Speaker 3: the people.
Speaker 5: Yes, So it's it's basically would you rather segment? But
Speaker 5: it's just my would you rather segment? Essentially. So I
Speaker 5: want you I'm going to give you two scenarios or
Speaker 5: two things, and I want you to compare which is
Speaker 5: which is better? Is that possible.
Speaker 4: You have to justify it.
Speaker 5: No, Oh, yeah, you can do it.
Speaker 1: I'm going to just pause for one second. Cooper, if
Speaker 1: you've got what.
Speaker 3: We what we're going to do, let's play. Let's play
Speaker 3: the game and so people understand what we're talking about.
Speaker 3: Jack sent me a voice memo when he pitched this
Speaker 3: segment to me.
Speaker 5: Sound like that. No.
Speaker 2: I had to coach him.
Speaker 3: Basically into how we should explain to the people on here.
Speaker 3: We're going to play it after the segment because it
Speaker 3: is so funny on how it's just a great insight
Speaker 3: into Jack on how we can just over explain and
Speaker 3: make it.
Speaker 2: It's so confusing, like you just lost.
Speaker 4: You know what, Jack, that's probably my fault.
Speaker 2: You reckoned.
Speaker 5: So today it is, which is the better superpower? Okay, okay,
Speaker 5: here you okay, So the first one here is now
Speaker 5: listen carefully, which would you rather every time you hit
Speaker 5: the pedestrian crossing button? There's no way it instantly goes
Speaker 5: green and you walk. You can walk or give me,
Speaker 5: or every time you say the word dollar, you conjure
Speaker 5: a dollar coin in your hand. Only condition is that
Speaker 5: it can only happen once a.
Speaker 1: Week, Which is a better superpower, piss poor superpower.
Speaker 5: Which would you rather? You gotta pick one, I'd go that.
Speaker 1: I'd go the dollar because I just find a lot
Speaker 1: of breaking rules. I do like jaywalk, jaywalking.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I rarely go up to the cross to the man,
Speaker 3: see to the man. I mean the dollar is kind
Speaker 3: of useless, like once a.
Speaker 2: Week, so that's what fifty two dollars dollars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you can make money off that.
Speaker 3: That's actually a really good you know, I'm with your
Speaker 3: dad because imagine that is a superpower. You're a magician
Speaker 3: at a kid's birthday party.
Speaker 1: Boom.
Speaker 5: Yeah, every Saturday at four pm.
Speaker 3: Yeah, dollar boom straight in there. But you know, obviously
Speaker 3: only once a week, once a week.
Speaker 5: But think about the convenience of the pedestrian cross.
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't go in to the pedestrian crossing.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the meat in the sandwich. You know,
Speaker 1: let's get to.
Speaker 6: Go no, because like you know, on those big city
Speaker 6: intersections where there's loads of people, you just walk up
Speaker 6: and like the pied piper turn walk and everyone follows you.
Speaker 2: It'd be pretty cool because I like that's me.
Speaker 3: I like to do that as a power move, like
Speaker 3: I'll boom Jack, sem me do this at the lights
Speaker 3: before your tap tap tap it, but as soon as
Speaker 3: because I'll look at as soon as he goes red
Speaker 3: and I know it's about to go green, I'll walk
Speaker 3: out before anyone else does. And then the green man
Speaker 3: goes and I'll look back at everyone go.
Speaker 2: What are you waiting for?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Or follow me, guys, And then it looks like everyone
Speaker 2: has to cross over.
Speaker 1: It absolutely amazes me. Where there's no cars going either way,
Speaker 1: there's no one there, and people still wait for that.
Speaker 4: Well, some people actually lack a vision.
Speaker 1: The it just costs yourselves twenty seconds. You'll love.
Speaker 4: Things are, Matt. The things are cars turn right, they
Speaker 4: go around corners.
Speaker 5: You know what.
Speaker 4: Please follow the rule sp that's normal, Matt.
Speaker 2: You've spoken as a woman who doesn't have true vision
Speaker 2: like a half back does.
Speaker 1: Exactly.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Five eighth correct?
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, Now let's get this is Jack, he said, Dad,
Speaker 1: can I just play something to you. This is Jack's
Speaker 1: good idea for a segment. Tell me what you think.
Speaker 4: This is the initial explanation.
Speaker 2: Jack said.
Speaker 3: I said, send it to me in a voice message,
Speaker 3: because I knew Jack was no hope in hell and
Speaker 3: typing it and it makes me sense, so it says
Speaker 3: send it to me as a voice message. This is
Speaker 3: a forty five second piece of audio Jack trying.
Speaker 2: To explain this.
Speaker 5: Jack. It was just an idea. I had it while
Speaker 5: I was walking along in the city.
Speaker 4: Don't talk over the audience.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's go.
Speaker 5: So it's a segment, so like I'll start it off
Speaker 5: like this. The first one is, let's go best of
Speaker 5: the worst things, and you just going to decide between
Speaker 5: two things which one is the best. But they're always
Speaker 5: like really shit. So I was like thinking, the first one,
Speaker 5: we do the worst sorry, the best of the worst
Speaker 5: superpowers ever and just have them like a really like
Speaker 5: pedestrians and like really like like just boring. So I
Speaker 5: have them like, Okay, you have to decide between is
Speaker 5: this superpower or is this superpower better where you every
Speaker 5: time you touch the button at a pedestrian crossing it
Speaker 5: instantly goes green to walk or something like that, like
Speaker 5: just make them real stucky.
Speaker 2: What it's like you have seen that kid who's like
Speaker 2: trying to get the question out. It's like a mean
Speaker 2: back in the name. He's like you ever you ever get?
Speaker 2: You ever get?
Speaker 3: And it just it's like a traps you into watching
Speaker 3: this video for fifty eight seconds and he never gets
Speaker 3: the question. Now that's like Jack trying to squeeze that
Speaker 3: segment out.
Speaker 1: I just wrote down something here when you had celebrity
Speaker 1: run ins, Could I just do this because if I
Speaker 1: don't do it here, I reckon I'll never do it again.
Speaker 2: If you don't score here, you won't score anyway.
Speaker 1: Now, celebrity encounters people run into. When when we lived
Speaker 1: in England, myself and my dear friend Brian can'ty we
Speaker 1: get a Starbucks at Bolton and we go there, we
Speaker 1: get a frabuccino and then we go watch a movie.
Speaker 1: We were sitting one day and Brian, now the blue goes, mate,

Speaker 2: Do you think Brian saw him? Because that's such a
Speaker 2: Brian thing to bait him into.

Speaker 5: That sounds like a Brian thing to do. He would
Speaker 5: make you bag him out, knowing that he's right behind.
Speaker 4: You, that.
Speaker 3: We've said this prank that Brian used to do when
Speaker 3: he Brian used to stay with and he'd go up

Speaker 3: Apparently it's awsome and they're like, it's right, he's literally

Speaker 1: I have faith a really big game this one South
Speaker 1: versus the Knights and Joe Row's birthday, the biggest biggest
Speaker 1: birthday celebration out there, and it's perfect time we come
Speaker 1: up against the Newcastle Knights. As I said the Sunday
Speaker 1: Nights Schapi, the Newcastle Knights and the South in the ravedos,
Speaker 1: the region of Newcastle and the South Club, it just
Speaker 1: got great affiliation together players. When when Sous would come
Speaker 1: trying to get back into the competitions, Newcastle Knights just
Speaker 1: got so far behind him. So I used to be

Speaker 5: the Newcastle Knights.
Speaker 2: So you tip and then Jack, I'm going to go.

Speaker 5: been there other than that Origin game, he's been that
Speaker 5: good for him to have him out now and Trey

Speaker 5: going to be a pretty hard, hard for battle.
Speaker 1: I'm going to get I'm going to go Knights, no
Speaker 1: Curdie Walker, no Latrial.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gone Nights.
Speaker 2: I'm going to go the Mighty nineties as.
Speaker 4: Well, Monday nineties mainly and the Cowboys.

Speaker 3: Titans come up against one of my old teams. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna that my loyalty can can waver.
Speaker 1: Okay, you imagine personally, it's.
Speaker 4: An what is it exactly? It is a lemon. It's
