Speaker 1: Out the Gate with Maddie McLean, Chris Henry and Brad
Speaker 1: Christiansen cheers heavy dry July. Yes, it ain't happening for it.
Speaker 1: I mean it was never going to happen for us.
Speaker 2: I have to say today it is Wednesday, the third
Speaker 2: of July, and this is the first step of alcohol
Speaker 2: that's gone into my mouth since quite late on Saturday morning.
Speaker 1: I think at my best, so so dry drive first
Speaker 1: and second of July. We can say that.
Speaker 2: And you know, if you take the days in June
Speaker 2: that I didn't drink and then edit to I'm probably sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've built up like a little stockpile. You're like
Speaker 1: a little squirrel. You're just like you just put the
Speaker 1: nuts away. Its free days for winter, and then here
Speaker 1: you are reaping the rewards of that cold beer on
Speaker 1: a Wednesday night. It's so we really just threw the
Speaker 1: gators out, didn't we We threw the gators out, and
Speaker 1: to be fair, we threw ourselves out because I always
Speaker 1: get a little bit heldy pigoty when we changed the plans.
Speaker 1: But we did, and that's fine.
Speaker 2: Oh thank you. It's a mahi last night. That's why
Speaker 2: why I couldn't make it, so thank you very much
Speaker 2: for changing it. And also we just one step closer
Speaker 2: to the weekend.
Speaker 1: I reckon, once you get to a Wednesday night. So
Speaker 1: for our Gators, we usually record on a Tuesday, upload
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday. We are now recording on a Wednesday,
Speaker 1: uploading on a Thursday.
Speaker 2: I tell you what the gap between this podcast? Actually no, no, no,
Speaker 2: continue because.
Speaker 1: I was just going to say that the that the
Speaker 1: Wednesday night record is great because it means it feels
Speaker 1: like we're so like this is we're over the hearm,
Speaker 1: well over well over the heart.
Speaker 2: I reckon, we'll get this one down and then maybe
Speaker 2: we'll get there. But like you just nip up the
Speaker 2: road for a sneaky totally totally.
Speaker 1: I'd like to use this opportunity to welcome in our
Speaker 1: wonderful co host Bread Hi Bred Oh oh nothing crickets,
Speaker 1: absolute crecket crickets. Where the bloody hell It's like I
Speaker 1: feel like Lara Bingle and the Tourism Australia aired from
Speaker 1: years years ago, Where the bloody hell are you? Well? Look?
Speaker 2: Bread is away at the moment. He's busy, very he's
Speaker 2: very busy. He did say I'm in. He accepted the invitation.
Speaker 2: There was a quick little pop into the group chat
Speaker 2: this morning, but as of this afternoon.
Speaker 1: Silent Silence, Radio Silence, Radio podcast Silence. Can I tell
Speaker 1: you two things. One, I looked in the in the
Speaker 1: dock earlier, and to be fair, I was a late
Speaker 1: dock adder today and I when I was, when I
Speaker 1: was putting stuff in the dock, I thought, there's nothing
Speaker 1: from Bread. I don't see a BC on the dock.
Speaker 1: On the dock, that's not unusual, that's not uncommon. No,
Speaker 1: even when we know he's coming, that's not unusual. So
Speaker 1: that that gave me a little pause for thought. But
Speaker 1: it wasn't the biggest of red flags. There was a
Speaker 1: lot of radio silence, and I did think to myself,
Speaker 1: I feel like he's not he ain't showing today.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean it looks it looks that way.
Speaker 2: I mean, we we have taken some really good precautions.
Speaker 2: We have installed. We have got some of our really
Speaker 2: great radio help us here in the iHeartRadio stable to
Speaker 2: help us get zoom to run through the computery desk thing,
Speaker 2: which went really well.
Speaker 1: And for you and I well for this whole podcast,
Speaker 1: which is not known for its technical technical like knowledge.
Speaker 1: Now I feel like we've actually done pretty well, very good.
Speaker 1: So this is just a little take you behind the curtains.
Speaker 2: We have a live zoom link that Brad does have
Speaker 2: the link for Yes Live and Opera. We're streaming live
Speaker 2: into the zone. At some point across the next forty minutes,
Speaker 2: if Brad does pop his head up and jump in,
Speaker 2: we're going to bring you him live.
Speaker 1: Well we're good to go. Yeah, I've just got to
Speaker 1: click one button that says on and then he'll be
Speaker 1: beaming into us. I've had a look and because we've
Speaker 1: got a group chat, the three of us, and if
Speaker 1: all three of us have seen the message, the text
Speaker 1: turn blue on WhatsApp. There ain't no blue tics from
Speaker 1: the last few messages we've sent God, so he has
Speaker 1: not seen it yet.
Speaker 2: Well, look, Bradley, for all of your flaws, we still
Speaker 2: love We do adore you. We adore you. We miss
Speaker 2: your beautiful ris we miss you up the bum no babies,
Speaker 2: we miss.
Speaker 1: You're a useless prack, but we do love you.
Speaker 2: So look fingers across that he arrives on the podcast
Speaker 2: at some point today, so we can just sort of
Speaker 2: rinse him live for the remainder of the podcast.
Speaker 1: Here's my thinking if he doesn't show next week, because
Speaker 1: I'm look, I would love if he just randomly popped
Speaker 1: up today and we got him on today's podcast. I'm
Speaker 1: not holding out any home, so I've I've written today
Speaker 1: off like it is probably just going to be the
Speaker 1: two of us. If he doesn't show next week, do
Speaker 1: you think do you think this podcast can afford to
Speaker 1: have its second use of the sea words? Maybe? Do
Speaker 1: you think you would? Do you think we would call
Speaker 1: him the sea words? I was thinking call him the
Speaker 1: seaworks and a loving in a loving way, but drop
Speaker 1: the sea word. I mean, I think it's probably appropriate.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be nervous about doing it because remember the
Speaker 1: first time we did it, I did not go down.
Speaker 1: We did not go well, and we turned to each
Speaker 1: other and we went, we're we're smutty. Yeah we're filthy,
Speaker 1: but we're not there. We're not there, and we are
Speaker 1: now part of sort of a wider go on roots,
Speaker 1: like a more professional like, yeah, yeah this building is
Speaker 1: paying your wages. Yeah, we're in a more professional operation.
Speaker 1: Not that producer Joey wasn't professional professionalism to a dying days,
Speaker 1: but Yeah, there's more people involved in the setup of this.
Speaker 2: Now it goes the higher chains. We can actually get
Speaker 2: in like legitimate trouble.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. They send out every every year they do
Speaker 1: a list of the the worst words that you can broadcast.
Speaker 1: I think it's like the BSA might put it out
Speaker 1: and that word definitely tops the list. Still, every year
Speaker 1: you can get away with you can get away with
Speaker 1: your ships and your fox farm more than you ever could.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and we I mean we use all of them
Speaker 2: deck balls Fanny, Yeah, but not not that one rusty trombone.
Speaker 1: What were the other one with? What were the ones
Speaker 1: got the rusty trombone? What were the other ones?
Speaker 2: That some sort of eagle there, there's an eagle an eagle, yeah.
Speaker 1: Which we never tried. I never tried. No, I mean
Speaker 1: no I have. I haven't tried it either. I was
Speaker 1: gung ho I was going to try. I could be
Speaker 1: a homework for that space.
Speaker 2: I've got to question, there's gonna be your off gred
Speaker 2: you know, you're worried about your off grad holiday and
Speaker 2: not having things to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe we need to sort of get the Gators.
Speaker 2: Is suggest sort of a series and it could be
Speaker 2: sort of positioned a day.
Speaker 1: So that's a great idea. That's a great idea because
Speaker 1: we will need to kill some time. Absolutely. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: got actually because we talked about got the fact that
Speaker 1: we're going off grad for this holiday, and I got
Speaker 1: the they semmed out like a full file beforehand, and
Speaker 1: I just got sent and I was having a look
Speaker 1: at it, and it's it's full on they call it,
Speaker 1: they say, because they've got a whole heap of Kevins
Speaker 1: scattered around the country, and so they kind of rank
Speaker 1: them in terms of ease to heart the gardeners. And
Speaker 1: they call this one a spice. This was thinking like
Speaker 1: hot or not, Like this is hot super hot Kevin. No, no,
Speaker 1: fugly no, no, no, this is like levels of extremism,
Speaker 1: I guess. And they said that this one's a spicy cabin.
Speaker 1: So it's an it's a you're coming nearly it's a
Speaker 1: nearly one kilometer walk from the car park to the hut.
Speaker 1: Really when you when you park your car, So you
Speaker 1: park your car, then you've got to obviously get all
Speaker 1: your stuff out. There's a wheelbarrow waiting for you that
Speaker 1: you can utilize to like transport your gear. It's your
Speaker 1: first position the wheelbarrow. Yeah, yeah, I could do this,
Speaker 1: but they say, don't like, don't pack anything crazy, because
Speaker 1: I'll let you in on a little I'll let you
Speaker 1: in a little tidbit.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 1: I was contemplating packing the Brevel coffee machine to take
Speaker 1: away with us. That's fair. I thought so too, until
Speaker 1: I realized I've got to lug this thing uphill eight
Speaker 1: hundred meters in a wheelbarrow. Maybe the maybe the coffee
Speaker 1: machine can stay at home. We can have to do
Speaker 1: a little macona instant instant or plunge your Oh, I
Speaker 1: don't I like a plunge. I don't mind a plunge.
Speaker 1: But you know, when you wake up in the morning,
Speaker 1: I just want my I want my I'm used to
Speaker 1: my phoony, my, my phoamy milky flat white, and that's
Speaker 1: what I want, and so you deserve it. So I
Speaker 1: deserve it today. But also I've chosen to go off gred,
Speaker 1: so I guess I've gotta I've gotta live with the
Speaker 1: consequences of that, and one of those consequences is I
Speaker 1: might not get a frothy, milky flat white in the morning.
Speaker 2: Although I do think that, I mean, you've got a
Speaker 2: resourceful husband like I do. He is, he's a problem solver,
Speaker 2: absolutely makes things happen. I reckon just sort of over
Speaker 2: the course of the week because you get towards holiday,
Speaker 2: just start to like drop hints about like.
Speaker 1: I'm maybe gonna miss this coffee.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, and see if maybe can just do
Speaker 2: something like you're got to do guest lighting in a
Speaker 2: positive way.
Speaker 1: I think so if it benefit of guess life, if
Speaker 1: it benefits both parties, I feel like a little bit
Speaker 1: of guest lighting is okay. I think this was your idea.
Speaker 1: Even the thing even gave us like recipes of things
Speaker 1: to cook. I suppose if you're gonna.
Speaker 2: Go that far, you wouldn't want to be taking many
Speaker 2: canned goods, would you know?
Speaker 1: There's a full fire like full fire and everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's going to be very fun.
Speaker 2: It actually will be really nice. I think you had
Speaker 2: the twitch for the first day or side. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: I think you're calm it down.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'll obviously report back after the after the holiday.
Speaker 1: So it's nice to see you again. It's to see
Speaker 1: you too.
Speaker 2: The last time I saw you, we were really getting
Speaker 2: amongst the dancers in Auckland.
Speaker 1: Shit she was fun. She was a big night. So
Speaker 1: we talked about this in the podcast last week.
Speaker 2: Pockets and I and a group of merry men descended
Speaker 2: on a party in Central Auckland. I don't know about you,
Speaker 2: but it'd been all since I'd sort of been out
Speaker 2: and about and I had a bit of a nervous
Speaker 2: excitement about it.
Speaker 1: You're same, I was like, oh, this is quite fun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we were like discussing.
Speaker 2: I kind of felt like I was a little bit
Speaker 2: back in my youth, like, oh, we're gonna have some
Speaker 2: pre drinks, all right, who's coming over?
Speaker 1: Who do you know? That's going? So we had a
Speaker 1: few predrics which you came around to you you did, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you did? You bo obviously your wonderful partner Mat and
Speaker 1: then a couple of friends as well. They were lovely,
Speaker 1: absolutely lovely, as were your friends. Yeah, one of them
Speaker 1: I definitely recognized, and you know in the gay world
Speaker 1: where you do have that moment going have I did
Speaker 1: I did we? We didn't? Or did we? Oh you
Speaker 1: might have? I was. I didn't even add feedback either way.
Speaker 2: I did have that thought when I it's always when
Speaker 2: you arrive in new group of gays, you're just like, oh.
Speaker 1: Hi, yes, yeah, have we been on Have I been
Speaker 1: on the back end of view? Have I just seen
Speaker 1: you in a grid somewhere? Have you seen me a
Speaker 1: picture of your a nurse before? I can't recognize your face,
Speaker 1: but just oh yeah, yea yea yeah yeah, yah yeah yeah. No,
Speaker 1: never seen that one before. No, oh no, I didn't
Speaker 1: have that feedback, okayod no, no, no, I don't think so.
Speaker 1: But I did look at him and I was like,
Speaker 1: you look familiar. And in any other circumstance, I would
Speaker 1: you would never think of anything of it. You'd be like,
Speaker 1: you'd look you look familiar. We must have met at
Speaker 1: some point or you know, just seeing each other around
Speaker 1: or whatever. But in the gay world, it's you look familiar.
Speaker 1: Have we hooked ark? Yeah? Have we shared pictures on Grander?
Speaker 2: Absolutely? I definitely felt that a little bit more. We
Speaker 2: got to the party, I was like, oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah the roster, yea, oh you you were we are used?
Speaker 1: You were my Wednesdays.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen you before, some of them obviously, Now
Speaker 2: that it runs a content creator, I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: I spotted one at the party. I was like, I've
Speaker 2: seen your content, your spicy content.
Speaker 1: Hello, hello.
Speaker 2: But it was so fun to get amongst so it's
Speaker 2: such a great job with the party. We danced and
Speaker 2: we danced, and we danced and we danced some more,
Speaker 2: and then it was very late in the night.
Speaker 1: Yes, gators, guess who was there? Regular gators will remember this.
Speaker 1: The stripper from My hens Doom.
Speaker 2: Strippert from the hens Do was there, and he was
Speaker 2: painted head to toe in gold like he was. I mean,
Speaker 2: he was obviously an Egyptian god before the event, but
Speaker 2: he was very much an Egyptian god at the event.
Speaker 1: He looked so good. And here's something that I haven't
Speaker 1: told you is that when he was on stage dancing,
Speaker 1: he spotted me and recognized me and came down and
Speaker 1: like I was quite drunk, but he definitely acknowledged me
Speaker 1: and came and talked to me. And then my friends
Speaker 1: that were around me got were like what was that?
Speaker 1: What was that? And I was like, oh, that's the
Speaker 1: stripper from my Ends to I've had got so much
Speaker 1: podcasting got gone out of him, my god, And then
Speaker 1: I told him about the voice memos. Remember do you
Speaker 1: see me voice me? I think your voice memos And
Speaker 1: he was like, it is a very sensual that's not
Speaker 1: exactly and I'm doing a tear. I'm butchering it. But yeah,
Speaker 1: oh I don't really care what he sounds. So he
Speaker 1: was there. It was a great night. Remember last week
Speaker 1: we're saying Egyptian theme, Egyptian theme, So what does that
Speaker 1: mean for us? Does that mean we have to dress
Speaker 1: up an Egyptian were and you and I both decided no,
Speaker 1: a cultural appropriation be It just doesn't feel like that
Speaker 1: kind of vibe either. I think we'd be to just
Speaker 1: wear our regular clothes.
Speaker 2: Well, this was quite a ruckus in my house because
Speaker 2: my darling, Matt, he listens to the podcast. He came
Speaker 2: home and he turns around to me and says, as
Speaker 2: this party of dress up, And I was like, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: no no no no no, no, no, no no, we can
Speaker 2: just wear whatever. Yes, yes, I think he was concerned
Speaker 2: that he had to find a new outfit, but instead
Speaker 2: we just went with Homer Cute is how I would
Speaker 2: describe it.
Speaker 1: So I was in pockets, headed shorts on. So you
Speaker 1: do you know about the stress before you arrived at
Speaker 1: our house for pre drinks. I do know. So I
Speaker 1: had I'd been stressing all day about what to wear,
Speaker 1: and I don't know, like something about one of these
Speaker 1: like very cool, hip gay parties just like it's like
Speaker 1: it reverts me back to my like high school days
Speaker 1: where I'm like, oh god, I'm not cool enough and
Speaker 1: what do I wear? And oh my god, I'm going
Speaker 1: to talk to and what if the cool kids are
Speaker 1: there and blah blah blah. So I was stressing all
Speaker 1: day about what to wear. I finally landed on an
Speaker 1: outfit i'd bought. I had some new sh jeans, so
Speaker 1: I wore my new jeans and I wore like a
Speaker 1: linen long sleeve linen shirt. And then a couple of
Speaker 1: friends came around first for the pre drinks, and one
Speaker 1: of my friends, Harry, said, no, that's not going to
Speaker 1: work straight away. Straight away, he didn't say he wasn't
Speaker 1: like you don't look good. He was just like, this
Speaker 1: isn't this isn't suitable for the party. You look too
Speaker 1: like nice, yeah, okay for cool yeah. And he said also,
Speaker 1: I've been to this party before it gets really hot,
Speaker 1: you're going to overheat. So then that just threw me
Speaker 1: into a whole tailspin. And then he was like, come
Speaker 1: with me, come with me. So he took me into
Speaker 1: the bedroom and we'd like that some dodgy took me
Speaker 1: into the bedroom and we looked through my closet. You
Speaker 1: put him on the chair and he was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: let's do this and let's do this. And that's how
Speaker 1: I ended up in shorts and a short sleeved collared shirt.
Speaker 2: But your college shirt was cute though, because it was
Speaker 2: like you'd come down a couple about it.
Speaker 1: Yes, a little bit, a little bit of Jess. I
Speaker 1: think you were cute. Thank you, thank you, I will say.
Speaker 1: Once I got to the party, I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't think I would have overheated, you know, No, it
Speaker 1: wasn't like I wasn't boiling or sweating or anything like that. No,
Speaker 1: I mean, I won't even think what I wore. But
Speaker 1: I'd made my choice, so I kind of stuck with it.
Speaker 1: There were maybe two people I think that I saw
Speaker 1: definitely their head dressed and to toe like first scene,
Speaker 1: look sharp Egyptian costume. Well would the thing on the
Speaker 1: hea'd be called a name, isn't it? Yes? And I
Speaker 1: don't know what the name is, but you know, like
Speaker 1: think a head piece, I think an Egyptian head piece
Speaker 1: for a male they were wearing that. There were definitely
Speaker 1: some sort of like robe situations.
Speaker 2: But to be fair, at the parties it doesn't almost
Speaker 2: really matter because by the time we were in there
Speaker 2: and we were dancing way for a bit, and then
Speaker 2: at one point it turned around and.
Speaker 1: No one had any shirts on side. Know, the shirts
Speaker 1: came off quite quickly as well, very quickly. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: then I woke up the next morning and I was
Speaker 1: still pulling little bits of gold like confetti out of
Speaker 1: a comfetti cannonal I forgot about the confiti canon until
Speaker 1: I saw it the next morning and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's right, the confetti canon went off. Anyway, a lot
Speaker 1: of fun. It was a great night, and it was
Speaker 1: very nice to have you guys, you boys around for
Speaker 1: pre drinks. It was fun. Absolutely, it was really fun. Fun.
Speaker 1: Now I've speaking of parties. Yes, I've got a bit
Speaker 1: of a dilemma, so bring it to the group. This Saturday,
Speaker 1: we are hosting a little midwinter Christmas late lunch with
Speaker 1: some of our friends. There's a group of like eight
Speaker 1: of us. Yes, and yeah, it's going to be really
Speaker 1: really nice, low key but fun. We'll have a few
Speaker 1: drinks and yeah, and part of the reason we're doing
Speaker 1: it in the afternoon is it was just one of
Speaker 1: those things, you know what it's like, getting a group
Speaker 1: of friends together is important. There impossible trying to lock
Speaker 1: in a specific date that everyone can do, it's such
Speaker 1: a nightmare.
Speaker 2: It's it's the curse of modern society, the bane of adulthood.
Speaker 1: Absolutely months. Yeah. But then, so we were trying to
Speaker 1: do night like a nighttime thing, and then someone would
Speaker 1: always pipe up with, no, I can't do that night right,
Speaker 1: And we wanted it to be a weekend and we
Speaker 1: wanted to have fun and all the rest of it.
Speaker 1: But then Ryan said, what about an afternoon thing? Like,
Speaker 1: we don't have to do a nighttime thing of reason,
Speaker 1: isn't he And then everyone kind of went, actually, I
Speaker 1: love I'm so vibing with the afternoon thing. So we
Speaker 1: locked in this Saturday. And then that my friend was like,
Speaker 1: that's great because I've got a leaving party to go
Speaker 1: to at night time, so it's perfect. I'll come to
Speaker 1: the midwinter Christmas, we'll wrap things up. Then I can
Speaker 1: go to my leaving party and everyone I just can
Speaker 1: get on with the night. I can go out again,
Speaker 1: they can go out afterwards, or they can just go
Speaker 1: home and put themselves to bid whatever they want to do.
Speaker 1: And then he said to us, by the way, you'll
Speaker 1: be invited to this leaving party and right, and I went,
Speaker 1: we're not. We're definitely not. And these aren't the people
Speaker 1: who are leaving. We've only met them recently. They're more
Speaker 1: of like friends of friends. But we love with are great.
Speaker 1: We get along with them really well. But we're not done.
Speaker 1: We're not in their lives big time. We haven't known
Speaker 1: them for a long time, so I wouldn't have expected
Speaker 1: to been invited. But we message on social media, you know,
Speaker 1: from time to time, and we had been messaging this
Speaker 1: week and I said to one of them, knowing for
Speaker 1: while there was a leaving party, I said to him,
Speaker 1: will we see you before you go? And he said,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you will. And I was like, okay, so
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not. I'm not the best of fishermen
Speaker 1: at the best of times. But I took the line
Speaker 1: out and nothing came back. Right, So that was that.
Speaker 1: And then and then literally this week yesterday, the invite
Speaker 1: has come in for the party. But I feel like
Speaker 1: maybe it's a like last minute thing, and I don't
Speaker 1: know if we should still go. Do we just turn
Speaker 1: up anyway? See, it's it's a tough one.
Speaker 2: I wasn't gonna bring this up on the podcast, but
Speaker 2: I had a similar situation in the last couple of weeks. Okay,
Speaker 2: it was a birthday that I wasn't invited to and
Speaker 2: I was a bit surprised about not being invited. Yeah,
Speaker 2: if I'm on it, and sort of the invite never came.
Speaker 2: So I would say to you, considering it's it's Wednesday
Speaker 2: today and the party is this weekend. If it's a
Speaker 2: leaving party, I say, swallow your pride, go along, go along,
Speaker 2: one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: And I guess. I guess they have off their own bet,
Speaker 1: really put the invite out, Yea, even though I dropped
Speaker 1: a little hint last week, this is off their own
Speaker 1: bet this week that they've invited me. And although it's late, notice,
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 2: But it's not dinner ornything. There has reservations. One hundred percent. Yeah,
Speaker 2: go along, I think so. Well, otherwise you're going to
Speaker 2: be the person at your own party where everyone's going
Speaker 2: to leave you and then you and yours been to
Speaker 2: cry on the.
Speaker 1: Cry on the catch here the first time that Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm going to go along. I'll let you know how
Speaker 1: it goes.
Speaker 2: That sounds amazing. Off the back of the weekend, I
Speaker 2: have been having interesting sleeps. I think you know, when
Speaker 2: you have a big night and you start at my heart,
Speaker 2: it takes you a while quite kind of recover that.
Speaker 2: And I had a dream a couple of nights ago,
Speaker 2: I had a six stream a sextreme, a really intense
Speaker 2: sex stress.
Speaker 1: Vivid, very vivid. Wow, because it's not always you don't
Speaker 1: always remember your dreams when you wake up. I was
Speaker 1: quite across this one. Yeah, okay, but not with the boyfriend.
Speaker 1: With Troy Savant. That's good. He was like quite into
Speaker 1: it in the Fearness. We have been talking about Troy
Speaker 1: quite a bit. And also update on the Troy scenario.
Speaker 2: Have you watched the fact that in his last concert,
Speaker 2: Ross Lynch was one of the dances that was part
Speaker 2: of it. No, so Ross Lynch. Actually, I can't even
Speaker 2: know why Ros Lynch is a famous person. Why is
Speaker 2: Rosslynch famous person?
Speaker 1: Actor?
Speaker 2: Maybe it's Ross's the guy that was in the first
Speaker 2: White Loners that did the rimming.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, wow, he is.
Speaker 2: Follow from me and So he had done this video
Speaker 2: with Ty Savar and at one of the one of
Speaker 2: their concerts where Troy is like and that's it's not
Speaker 2: most respect because he's definitely portraying it like super firm,
Speaker 2: down on his knees, like looking up at Ross's He's
Speaker 2: like sitting in his own cutch yair legs, white spread.
Speaker 2: He like gives him a little slap around the face.
Speaker 2: It's super hot.
Speaker 1: Okay, I think maybe he's not the white load of guy.
Speaker 1: So when is he famous? But he has. He was
Speaker 1: a teen actor that was in like some of those
Speaker 1: like Disney movies. He was in Teen Beach Movie, which
Speaker 1: is like a Disney thing. But what you might know
Speaker 1: him from is that he was he was in the
Speaker 1: Choice of Our music video One of Your Girls. You know,
Speaker 1: when troye of Arn dresses up in drag and so
Speaker 1: that's what they were doing on stage. They were recreating
Speaker 1: that video, that music video, and oh my god, it
Speaker 1: was it was so so hot and.
Speaker 2: So yeah, so Trey and I we were sort of
Speaker 2: at one of his shows. We're kind of backstage. He
Speaker 2: sort of really just got right in my growl and
Speaker 2: hes pretty persistent. Also, weird thing about the sex dreame
Speaker 2: very across in the sex dreame that I was not
Speaker 2: allowed to be having sex with choice of varn Roll.
Speaker 1: So it was a very much I'm doing wrong and
Speaker 1: and he's really forcing their equation.
Speaker 2: Also looking forward to the fact that I haven't told
Speaker 2: my partner about the stories, that he's going to hear
Speaker 2: the story on the podcast, which is right, excellent.
Speaker 1: What a debriefing on this In fairness, if it's anything
Speaker 1: like my partner, he'll just be like, oh, tell me more,
Speaker 1: tell me. Everriefing, what happened? What was it like? Big? Yeah,
Speaker 1: what a sexy dream? It was really sexy. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: feel partially responsible for that because we have been debriefing
Speaker 1: on choice of art hard on this podcast. We're definitely
Speaker 1: a choice of our fan account were actually yeah, we've
Speaker 1: been sharing a lot of tiktoks about him. I think
Speaker 1: it's you can't be responsible for your subconscious No, you
Speaker 1: can't be. I had a six dreame a couple of
Speaker 1: months ago about one of my friend's partners also hot. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I told them as well, they like it. She found it.
Speaker 1: It was there's a heterosexual couple. I was like a girl, No, No,
Speaker 1: I had a sexam a girl's husband. She found it
Speaker 1: weird but funny, and I think he just found it weird.
Speaker 1: Did you feel like you looked at them a little
Speaker 1: bit like different afterwards? I haven't seen him in the flesh,
Speaker 1: so to speak, since the dream because they don't live
Speaker 1: in Auckland, So next time I see him in person,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it might be weird, or maybe he's
Speaker 1: put it into the back of his mind and it
Speaker 1: will never be spoken of again. Oh, it's more just
Speaker 1: about you looking at him being like I've seen you dream, Dick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was nice. It was It was nice too. It
Speaker 1: was a nice dream, Dick. Yeah, I liked it. Love
Speaker 1: love a dream. Hey, I wanted to have a little
Speaker 1: bit of a chat about something I saw this week online,
Speaker 1: which is that Matthew Ridge. You know, you know Matthew Bridge,
Speaker 1: Mark and Matthew sports Cafe? Was he in the way?
Speaker 1: I don't actually think he was on sports KFA. I
Speaker 1: think Mark Ellis was on sports Cafe? Was Game of
Speaker 1: two Halves married? Sally married Sally Ridge? Did they Matthew
Speaker 1: and Mark weverywhere in the like nineties, early two thousands
Speaker 1: they were like I would score Johnathan Ben. Absolutely, he
Speaker 1: definitely did. He definitely did a celebrity treasur Elenston at
Speaker 1: some point, I'm sure he had done the one one
Speaker 1: way like a cocraft. Got the all, got the coral, Yeah,
Speaker 1: got the toxic shock. Yeah. But he has started a
Speaker 1: new podcast and it's called The Brink. They promote themselves
Speaker 1: as it's him and another guy. They promote themselves as
Speaker 1: two rambling dim wits, and the show showed shared some
Speaker 1: snippets from the show to Instagram, and in it he
Speaker 1: uses the IF word and I don't mean fuck, I
Speaker 1: mean the gay slur if.
Speaker 2: Word, which I think for this podcast will be worse
Speaker 2: than saying the sea word. I think you'd say the
Speaker 2: sea word before you'd say the F word on this podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah. In the clip, for some reason, he's telling Matthew
Speaker 1: Ridge is telling his co host that he has plenty
Speaker 1: of gay friends. His mum's gay, and then the co
Speaker 1: host starts describing pride parades with twinks and dikes on bikes,
Speaker 1: and then Matthew Ridge cuts them off and says, hang
Speaker 1: on the guys that we call if word.
Speaker 2: So slight context of this, the guy that he is
Speaker 2: hosting the podcast with is an out homosexual, all right,
Speaker 2: So there's this like weird safe space thing where it's like, well,
Speaker 2: you can't cancel me because a he's a gay but
Speaker 2: obviously not a very card caring member of the actual community.
Speaker 1: I mean, don't the two of them live in Monaca
Speaker 1: or something like that, yeah, overseas And he just he finished
Speaker 1: off by saying, I don't care if you cancel me either.
Speaker 1: I couldn't give a shit. And it's like that whole idea.
Speaker 1: And this is what I've been thinking about because I
Speaker 1: was like, I feel like we need to talk about
Speaker 1: it on the podcast, and I was thinking, what am
Speaker 1: I what are my thoughts on this? My thoughts are this.
Speaker 1: I just feel like there is a lot, there is
Speaker 1: a lot of conversation around wokeness and cancel culture, and
Speaker 1: I do think we are in a dangerous situation where
Speaker 1: people can't, you know, people can't say anything for fear
Speaker 1: of being canceled. And I do think sometimes society goes
Speaker 1: too far and they are too too quick to cancel
Speaker 1: someone without giving them the chance to like learn and whatever.
Speaker 1: In this situation, though, I do think it's being used
Speaker 1: as an excuse for like bravery, like Oh, I'm so
Speaker 1: brave for saying this thing and not caring if you
Speaker 1: cancel me. You reasoning the F word is not brave,
Speaker 1: Like you're not clever, you're not smart or anything because
Speaker 1: you've used this word trying to be brave in the
Speaker 1: face of wokeness and cancel culture. You're just a bit
Speaker 1: of a dick. And there's no need, like, there's no
Speaker 1: need for it. And I know, like he might say, oh, well,
Speaker 1: I've got lots of gay mates. I don't give a shit,
Speaker 1: Like that's not that's like me. That's like someone in
Speaker 1: America saying I've got a lot of African American friends,
Speaker 1: so I can use the N word. Nah, you can't.
Speaker 1: You can't say that word. That's not for you. That's
Speaker 1: not that's not for you to say. And it holds
Speaker 1: a lot of power. Whether you think it does or
Speaker 1: not is actually irrelevant. You're not part of the community
Speaker 1: that has been called that, that has been like that,
Speaker 1: that that has had comments on social media written about
Speaker 1: you saying that word, where people have been attacked and
Speaker 1: brutalized while that word has been shouted at them. And
Speaker 1: I'm not, like I said, I do think sometimes we
Speaker 1: go too far with wokeness and cancel culture and society
Speaker 1: these days. I do think, i'm, i'm it's fair enough
Speaker 1: for the queer society to say you can't use that.
Speaker 1: You can't just drop that word casually and say as
Speaker 1: a defense, oh, everyone's too woke these days. No, it's that. No,
Speaker 1: you can't do that.
Speaker 2: And you've got to remember that he's not using it
Speaker 2: just in a random part of the podcast that someone's
Speaker 2: gone and found. They've actively chosen to promote most of
Speaker 2: the podcast knowing.
Speaker 1: Full well it's going to get clicks, and it's going
Speaker 1: to get listens, and it's going to you know, and
Speaker 1: it's going to drive news articles, which is how I
Speaker 1: saw this thing in the first place. Absolutely, they're just
Speaker 1: there and so they're kind of weaponizing a word that
Speaker 1: they have no right to use. They're just using it
Speaker 1: as a way of getting attention.
Speaker 2: And I had a feeling that we're going to talk
Speaker 2: about this on the podcast this week because it come
Speaker 2: through and I was.
Speaker 1: Like, oh my god.
Speaker 2: And I can appreciate the irony in this sentence, but like,
Speaker 2: here's just another two white men with a podcast being like, ah,
Speaker 2: I can do this, I know, and it just it
Speaker 2: bores me. I'm like, get in the band, totally in
Speaker 2: the fucking bit. I totally agree with him.
Speaker 1: And they might even hear this because actually followed us
Speaker 1: on Instagram. Oh god, did they? Well, Hi, Matthew, No,
Speaker 1: don't be scared of him. No, No, I'm not scared
Speaker 1: of him, and I would, honestly like the more I
Speaker 1: think about it, the more i'm I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: I'm at an age and a place in my life
Speaker 1: now where I would happily say this kind of stuff
Speaker 1: to someone's face happily.
Speaker 2: It almost disappoints me that this sort of thing brings
Speaker 2: us outrage, and then we bloody give it air time.
Speaker 2: I know, recording a band, we're not listening to it,
Speaker 2: and we're not engaging.
Speaker 1: We're drawing a lot in the sand. We've spoken about it,
Speaker 1: and let's move let's move on to talk about GAYTV.
Speaker 1: So I was actually we've got two parts on this. Great.
Speaker 2: First of all, we need to do a quick recap
Speaker 2: because obviously last week we debuted the out the Gate
Speaker 2: the Gays Facebook group and oh my.
Speaker 1: God, is it fun. It's gone off. We have eighty members.
Speaker 1: My god, welcome. That is so exciting. It was like
Speaker 1: it was a flurry, a flurry flurry vacations. So if
Speaker 1: you haven't joined yet, then you have to.
Speaker 2: It is Facebook dot com, forward Slash groups forward Slash
Speaker 2: at the Gate. There's a lovely post on here where
Speaker 2: people are introducing themselves and kyoto to all the gates.
Speaker 2: It is so amazing to see you all are in
Speaker 2: person and sort of chatting amongst themselves, some great familiar
Speaker 2: faces that we see in our dms, And it's so
Speaker 2: nice that you get the chants to meet each other
Speaker 2: because that was the That was the dream, really, wasn't it.
Speaker 2: We've got some very very nice people. Special shout out
Speaker 2: to the conversation between Brooke and Ed about who was
Speaker 2: the first person to send us a dick back.
Speaker 1: I love love that Brooks said, I've the privilege of
Speaker 1: being the first to send it. It put to the out
Speaker 1: the gate boys Tommy Lee a couple of years back.
Speaker 1: Boy do I remember that pack?
Speaker 2: That was absolutely true. And then there's been a discussion
Speaker 2: from Ed who said I must be a close second.
Speaker 2: Then I suppose we just set the record straight. Ed
Speaker 2: would have actually been first because Ed is the old
Speaker 2: es and that was very much a clinical image, but
Speaker 2: Ed did he did help us we move very early
Speaker 2: in the podcast, and Kilda, for those that are you
Speaker 2: welcome man early in the podcast history we had a
Speaker 2: fascination or a strong interest in a Prince Albert? Yes, yeah, correct,
Speaker 2: how it worked? Could you do we's? Did you have
Speaker 2: your pee going everywhere?
Speaker 1: How did it go? And ed?
Speaker 2: Kilda did a great job at explaining the process.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and I hope that he's here. I'm sure he'd
Speaker 1: be happy. I'm sure he would be us mentioning it.
Speaker 2: So it was very educational, very helped us through the
Speaker 2: process which she saw quite a few Prince Albert we.
Speaker 1: Did in the end. Yeah, there are some open to them. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: There are some really really nice messages in here as well,
Speaker 1: this one from Katrina. I've been a day one listener.
Speaker 1: The boys bring me so much joy and after it's blessed,
Speaker 1: that's so sweet. When I was learning how to breast
Speaker 1: pump after much birth and breath feeding trauma, my midwife
Speaker 1: told me to listen or watch something that made me
Speaker 1: feel happy and relaxed. So I listened to Out the
Speaker 1: Gate on repeat, night and day, and the milk started flowing. Yes, girl,
Speaker 1: do you know what do you know what. I love
Speaker 1: that we have been responsible for some healthy breast activity
Speaker 1: for all your lactation needs out the gates. I love it.
Speaker 1: Let's put that on the let's put that on the trailer.
Speaker 1: So anyway, come join the party. It's so nice to
Speaker 1: see there and get amongst like. Yes, will absolutely be
Speaker 1: super active, but it's a space for you guys to interact,
Speaker 1: to get to know each other. We love. We love
Speaker 1: when you drop into our dms on Instagram and show
Speaker 1: us like funny memes or send us videos or show
Speaker 1: us the new hot guy we should be following. We
Speaker 1: love that, particularly love that one. But that feels very
Speaker 1: like private and if that's the way you want to
Speaker 1: communicate with us, absolutely continue to do that. We love that.
Speaker 1: But also feel free to drop anything like that in
Speaker 1: the Facebook page so the other gators can get amongst
Speaker 1: it as well.
Speaker 2: We've already seen a great chair from one of our gators,
Speaker 2: so that's great, solid chair.
Speaker 1: I like to see those solid cheer.
Speaker 2: I throw a funny meme on the internet, definitely drop
Speaker 2: that in there. Absolutely, maybe send us a photo or
Speaker 2: put a pot out there if we're listening to the podcast.
Speaker 2: If you're an exercise that we would love to make
Speaker 2: sure that this goes global. So if I don't know,
Speaker 2: maybe this is some sort of spot prise. Yes, can
Speaker 2: be just making out something that we definitely can't deliver on.
Speaker 2: You look at a radio session, you'll be a price
Speaker 2: covered up here somewhere. I can't promise anything super exciting,
Speaker 2: but there'll be merch. There was some some I'll find
Speaker 2: something a CD.
Speaker 1: My CD is is the latest from Anastasia. I'm out Love.
Speaker 2: Free.
Speaker 1: She's going on a twin. She's going on a tour.
Speaker 1: That's why she popped into my mind because I've just
Speaker 1: writt an article before that She's going on a tour
Speaker 1: to celebrate twenty five years since that album. Sho'd be
Speaker 1: playing a smaller at the power stage. I have sidalone
Speaker 1: with the like purple glasses. Remember she definitely have to
Speaker 1: read the purple glasses.
Speaker 2: How she'd have to so deeply, absolutely have to. So
Speaker 2: I wanted to say, quick, you're onto the gators, Yes,
Speaker 2: you so much. I'd also now like to ask the Gators.
Speaker 1: For some help.
Speaker 2: I am what some would call on the biz time poor
Speaker 2: at the moment, and I'm seeing all of these ads
Speaker 2: around for this new show that's.
Speaker 1: On TV and Z Mary and George. I'm seeing the
Speaker 1: same thing.
Speaker 2: I so Matt and I discussing this is this our
Speaker 2: new show. He things a bit medieval and kind of
Speaker 2: fantasy side of things, So I feel like it might
Speaker 2: hit completely in the market for us.
Speaker 1: What I want to know and this needs and only
Speaker 1: get us out with us. I want to know how
Speaker 1: gay is it? Great?
Speaker 2: I want you, I want to I want you to
Speaker 2: give me the I want you to watch the first
Speaker 2: episode and I want to hear how gay it is.
Speaker 2: The billboards definitely have old Nicholas galazzy between him and
Speaker 2: Julian Moore, like with another man's face in it, so
Speaker 2: there has to be some gay in it.
Speaker 1: So the thing I'm thinking is one, all of the
Speaker 1: posters make it look super homornic. Two, it's got Nick Gallatine,
Speaker 1: who was in Red, White and Royal Blue. Yes, where
Speaker 1: he was the Prince the UK Prince fell in love
Speaker 1: with the President of the US's son. Yes, so very gay.
Speaker 2: Fun fact, I worked on a film with him in
Speaker 2: christ Church about ten years ago, called The Changeover. So
Speaker 2: I've actually met.
Speaker 1: Him and wow, he's a babe. He was quite young then,
Speaker 1: but it's still quite gay. And third thing I'd say
Speaker 1: about Mary and George to put it in the very
Speaker 1: gay camp is it's got fucking Julianne Moore on it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's definitely Akwayne. She's such a question. She's such a
Speaker 1: gay icon, like she's amazing. So all of all signs
Speaker 1: point two. But I'm with you. I want to know
Speaker 1: how gay it is.
Speaker 2: It Absolutely, I'll put it in. I will put it
Speaker 2: in the groups and people can comment on it. I'll
Speaker 2: do this, but I definitely need to know, and I
Speaker 2: need the Gates to help me with this one.
Speaker 1: Perfect because I'm in the I'm in the market for
Speaker 1: a good new TV show. I don't know if I'll
Speaker 1: be able to watch it off the grid. We might
Speaker 1: not have the right reception, but I'll put it. I'll
Speaker 1: put it on the list. Any to watch it illegally,
Speaker 1: but I'll put it on the list.
Speaker 2: Now I can act something this week that I put
Speaker 2: in the dock a few days ago because I saw it.
Speaker 1: And it just made me think of.
Speaker 2: You, Poka okay, and actually, to be fair, made me
Speaker 2: think of Brad too, And I wonder whether this is
Speaker 2: you know, we often talk about like different words and
Speaker 2: phrases that we need to know it is and this
Speaker 2: is not a sexy thing. This is actually this is
Speaker 2: a lovely kind of thing, like we really we've really
Speaker 2: taken to riz.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, very much. Have you heard of pibbling?
Speaker 2: No, So pibbling is the idea of like sending memes
Speaker 2: and links and videos to your better half because it
Speaker 2: signals that you are thinking of them and you want
Speaker 2: to share your joy with.
Speaker 1: You might be a pibbler that I'm definitely a pibbler
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. Why is it called pibbling.
Speaker 2: So it's called pebbling because it's based off penguins. So
Speaker 2: actually what they would do, they would gift pebbles to
Speaker 2: their potential.
Speaker 1: I've definitely seen that. Yeah, So, my little pebbler, I'm
Speaker 1: in it's who you are. I'm a peopler. You're a
Speaker 1: bit of a pep like I think I'm a peopler.
Speaker 1: My partner is a pibbler. He's a beautiful pebbler. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a sweet thing to do. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: it's very much like no matter what time of the
Speaker 1: day it is, it's very much a I've seen this thing.
Speaker 1: It's made me think of you. I'm going to share
Speaker 1: it to you because I hope that it makes you happy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's quite a sweet thing when you think about it.
Speaker 1: I've never really thought about it that deeply before.
Speaker 2: And they say in this in this post here, peopling
Speaker 2: is an active care. Every people is a bid for connection.
Speaker 2: That's adorable. So, Gator, is you a pebbler?
Speaker 1: Let us know? Yeah, let us know on Instagram or
Speaker 1: join the group, join the group, join the Facebook group.
Speaker 1: We'll see you there. Brad did not make it. No,
Speaker 1: I'm just going to double check the zoom. No, no,
Speaker 1: I'm going to close the chat. Close the chat. How
Speaker 1: probase it? Well, he will come back. Here's a live
Speaker 1: we do know that, and he will be back. We'll
Speaker 1: be back. And if he's not back next week, then
Speaker 1: I'll think about whether it it warrants a sea bomb drop,
Speaker 1: our second sea bomb drop ever. Now at least I've
Speaker 1: got this wildly wrong. We won't actually be here. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, yes, I'm away.
Speaker 2: So next week we're going to take a well deserve
Speaker 2: week off. We'll give bread and I have been, have been,

Speaker 2: be off.
Speaker 1: Gred, I'm off gred so I can't this is not
Speaker 1: I can't even join via zoom. No, and we wouldn't
Speaker 1: want that. They would defeat the purpose of that.
Speaker 2: And so if you slide in the group, were into
Speaker 2: the DMS pockets a SA we want to come back
Speaker 2: to you, but he will come back.
Speaker 1: I will, I absolutely will. And then it gives Bread

Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Bye.
