Speaker 1: Life in the Export Beer Guden Studio and brought to you,
Speaker 1: as always by Export Ultra of the Bear for Here.
Speaker 1: This is the Agenda Podcast for Wednesday, the seventh of August.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Export a Culture.
Speaker 1: I'm back lane, you put your areavement, leaving from observing
Speaker 1: the days of national grieving for the retirement of Shawn Johnson,
Speaker 1: and Yeah, beauty can't come at a worse time, men,
Speaker 1: I literally just been forty minutes talking about how we
Speaker 1: didn't think he.
Speaker 3: Was going to retire.
Speaker 4: That was noted yesterday.
Speaker 3: And I didn't. I genuinely didn't.
Speaker 1: My take was other clubs have been offering him money,
Speaker 1: which means our club's offered him money. And I don't
Speaker 1: think that you turned down six figures if it's still
Speaker 1: being offered to you.
Speaker 4: I think he has got a big enough future outside
Speaker 4: of the game.
Speaker 1: That is what That's sort of what I've come to learn.
Speaker 1: And I've always said that being rich isn't about how
Speaker 1: much money you have, It's about how much money you
Speaker 1: can say no to. Yeah, and he said no to
Speaker 1: what I presume to be an eye watering amount of money.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't know if it's eye watering. He
Speaker 4: is coming to the end of his career.
Speaker 3: It would make my eyes water if you present to
Speaker 3: me with that contract.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but not I mean it would make.
Speaker 1: Your eyes water to present me with that contract.
Speaker 4: But yeah, Like like I mentioned yesterday, he's got a
Speaker 4: lot of interests outside of the game. Yeah, he's obviously
Speaker 4: launched his own little media empire as well. So you
Speaker 4: know what, he probably worked out that he could probably
Speaker 4: make more money with less stress, let's travel more time
Speaker 4: with his family if he concentrated on that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's a good point. What's he been off
Speaker 1: a outside of that? Obviously? I thought when I saw
Speaker 1: whenever I see an athlete launched their own podcast, I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's one foot out, yep. And I think the more
Speaker 1: violent the game that you play, the further that foot
Speaker 1: is out, you know, because if you if you start
Speaker 1: making money off something outside of your sport, you're like,
Speaker 1: I've just done my pick my hilles, fucking my hammi
Speaker 1: this year in the last calendar year. And God bless
Speaker 1: him because most athletes, We've said this before, most athletes
Speaker 1: don't get to decide when they retire. Yeah, they are
Speaker 1: told by the agent after about six months after their
Speaker 1: last game, Hey, we're not giving a lot of nibbles here,
Speaker 1: so you're done. So yeah, it is said that he's
Speaker 1: not going to be playing one more year, but the hell.
Speaker 3: Of a career.
Speaker 1: And he has to be in your all time Warriors
Speaker 1: squad otherwise you don't know anything about the Warriors.
Speaker 3: This was an interesting question.
Speaker 1: And I know this is a few days old now,
Speaker 1: but it's been asked to me twice today, just this morning,
Speaker 1: by two different people. Would you rather win bronze and
Speaker 1: the pole vault or loose because of year downstairs?
Speaker 3: And I said the same thing.
Speaker 1: To both those people. Every year, well, every four years
Speaker 1: someone wins bronze at the Olympics for pole vault, but
Speaker 1: not every year does someone get to write their name
Speaker 1: into the history books for lodging the bar with their
Speaker 1: downstairs And can you imagine him walking into the Olympic
Speaker 1: village afterwards.
Speaker 3: Just full of confidence.
Speaker 4: He should walk around dislodging all sorts of things with
Speaker 4: his downstairs like he should go past the Olympic village
Speaker 4: like bar and just knock off a tray of Heinekens. Sorry,
Speaker 4: pat was he was he telling, I don't know, but
Speaker 4: just go what else can what else can you knock off?
Speaker 3: He's French, you know, you go around to the to
Speaker 3: the the.
Speaker 4: Particity and just go across and just swipe off all
Speaker 4: the classons off the top.
Speaker 1: A jewelry store should have him in their ads where
Speaker 1: he walks into the shop and it's all shot from
Speaker 1: above the waist and he turns around and you just
Speaker 1: hear millions of dollars jewelry smashing the endorsement deals.
Speaker 4: About absolutely, I mean even a spray and wipe ads,
Speaker 4: walks past, he cleans it off, maybe like an ad
Speaker 4: for No More Nails, or like gorilla glue, where he
Speaker 4: goes over as downstairs, hits the bar and it doesn't
Speaker 4: dislodge because it's been glued down with the only only
Speaker 4: substance known demand strong enough to withstand this guy's downstairs. Yeah,
Speaker 4: as he lands afterwards, he goes and tries it again
Speaker 4: and it smacks his nuts on it, and he goes
Speaker 4: Silly's griulla. Ste's fast, and he's like and then he's like.
Speaker 3: Fu, first time I've ever seen it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that he's already been offered like two
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand dollars to film an adult video.
Speaker 1: And I think that the way he should play this
Speaker 1: is he should launch an only fans, but not post
Speaker 1: any pictures of his just post a picture of his face,
Speaker 1: post a screenshot of the bar being dislodged.
Speaker 4: This is controversial, Okay, I believe he's got a tiny pee,
Speaker 4: but massive bees.
Speaker 3: Do you think it was the bees that dislodged it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, having looked at the footage and gone back on
Speaker 4: the tapes, yeah, controversial. I mean he's probably loving life,
Speaker 4: although there could be some disappointed partners coming around the
Speaker 4: corner because I believe he may be op rating a
Speaker 4: cashew with some big tractor wheels.
Speaker 3: Right, Okay, that's.
Speaker 4: If you look at the footage, it's not his d
Speaker 4: that knocks it off, it's his bees that wrap around
Speaker 4: the pole and dis lodge it. So I'm just going
Speaker 4: to throw it out there, small.
Speaker 1: P B bees, Okay, huge conspiracy theory, the dumb just yeah,
Speaker 1: you are like, do your own research, do your own research,
Speaker 1: do your own research into that. Are we allowed to
Speaker 1: use the footage? Could we cut this footage from this
Speaker 1: podcast in.
Speaker 4: With that once is over?
Speaker 3: Yeap?
Speaker 4: Yes, we will because when the Olympics over very litigious
Speaker 4: the new Zeallympic Committee and the Olympics for some reason,
Speaker 4: I don't want people sharing the content or talking about it.
Speaker 1: But it is an important issue that you've raised, you know,
Speaker 1: for the last week now, all anyone's been talking about is.
Speaker 3: The z Yeah.
Speaker 1: No, it's his bees, but you're saying on this podcast,
Speaker 1: their gender podcast, Yes it's actually his bees.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And people are going to be bitterly disappointed at the
Speaker 4: closing sermoy when they strip them naked at some state
Speaker 4: Yeah and go ah.
Speaker 1: I would just love because I like when so every
Speaker 1: year and say Super Rugby, NBA, whatever, when there's a
Speaker 1: grand final and they have to print the winning team's
Speaker 1: hats and jerseys before because they don't know who's going
Speaker 1: to win. So every year there is a losing team's
Speaker 1: winning hat, yes, that they presumably burn. I would love
Speaker 1: to get so, say, for example, when the Blues played
Speaker 1: the Crusaders in the Super Rugby Grand Final, I'd love
Speaker 1: to have had a Blues champions hat and wear that
Speaker 1: and have people.
Speaker 3: Say they didn't win that year, did they? No, they didn't.
Speaker 1: And I would like to if I was home, I'd
Speaker 1: have the bronze medal, and I thought you didn't win
Speaker 1: the bronze medal at the twenty twenty four Olympics.
Speaker 4: You're right, and that's because I did this.
Speaker 1: My downstairs just lodged the bar. Yeah, one hundred percent. Yesterday,
Speaker 1: while I was in my day of morning, I went
Speaker 1: and did the groceries. I went to back and say
Speaker 1: there was a guy there with a basket grabbing a
Speaker 1: couple of things, box of chocolates, a bottle of wine,
Speaker 1: and a thing of flowers, a bouquet of flowers. Pack
Speaker 1: and save flowers out of pack and save flowers.
Speaker 4: Okay, Is there's a caveat on the pack and save
Speaker 4: flowers the ants?
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm in okay, there is a caveat.
Speaker 4: You've got to unwrap them and rewrap them yourself before
Speaker 4: gifting them. You've got to take all that cellophane shit
Speaker 4: off and the kind of what's everything that screens pack
Speaker 4: and save about it.
Speaker 3: You've got to jig up a bit, so you got
Speaker 3: to repackage it.
Speaker 4: If you've got any colored paper or home or brown paper,
Speaker 4: buy two or three. So buy two or three of
Speaker 4: them as well, and so you can look the bouquets.
Speaker 4: You mix them up and then rewrap them.
Speaker 1: Oh, because one day she's going to go into Pack
Speaker 1: and Save, she's going to look, she'll see the exact Bokay,
Speaker 1: you've given her her.
Speaker 3: Bloody pack and save flowers. But if you mix and
Speaker 3: match them, she'll never see them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and look, the key is rewrapping, just kind of
Speaker 4: just mask it. The same with It's the same with
Speaker 4: service station flowers. You never buy one, you got to
Speaker 4: buy two. Three. Judge it up. Stop on the side
Speaker 4: of the road, Grab a fern, fucking whack that motherfucker
Speaker 4: in there, Like, just grab some greenery from anywhere and
Speaker 4: just whack it in there.
Speaker 1: Off the lawn because I guess at the end of
Speaker 1: the day these flowers have been grown presumably where all
Speaker 1: the other flowers have been grown.
Speaker 4: Correct, you can only grow the flowers a flower. It's
Speaker 4: the packaging and say that's the that's their mono. You know,
Speaker 4: everything's out of a box. It's concrete floors, stack to
Speaker 4: the roof. Wouldn't want to be there in an earthquake,
Speaker 4: but you know that's the that's the moner. That's same
Speaker 4: with the flowers wrapped and shitty, shitty kind of this
Speaker 4: plastic clear plastic stuff. Yeah, so you just gotta you've
Speaker 4: got a salt bad.
Speaker 3: I don't mind it because I was looking at.
Speaker 1: That and I was like, brother, brother, brother, surely not
Speaker 1: not the peck and save flowers.
Speaker 3: But he sounds like, what do you buy chocolates? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I saw a bottle of wine Lindau Oh, didn't see
Speaker 1: what it was.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: If he's got Lindy's chocolates, and just that he's he's
Speaker 4: on a tinder date, he's cheap. Oh right, yeah, he's
Speaker 4: on some sort of Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was thinking he's done something horrific.
Speaker 4: Eh, Well, there's a scale, isn't here of what you've
Speaker 4: done that's horrific and what you purchase to make up
Speaker 4: for it. So that doesn't sound like a horrific crime.
Speaker 1: There's a minor crime potentially, I don't know, stacking the
Speaker 1: dishwasher wrong.
Speaker 3: Or I just not maybe coming home late.
Speaker 1: But blowout didn't come home one night.
Speaker 3: Either, didn't come home. That's quite a big one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, so you do escalate that one a little
Speaker 4: bit potentially with maybe a bigger bouquet, maybe at dinner.
Speaker 3: I've only ever done that once.
Speaker 1: Didn't come home and I was on Leehart's couch watching
Speaker 1: Beatles documentaries. There's my story and I'm fucking sticking to
Speaker 1: that until I die.
Speaker 3: And Lee will back me up on there as well.
Speaker 1: He's good that he's a great New Zealander and that
Speaker 1: in the industry is called a segue because we are
Speaker 1: crunching the numbers on who is the greatest New Zealander
Speaker 1: of all time at the moment, I would like to
Speaker 1: remind people because this has gone massive across social media,
Speaker 1: hundreds of comments on every platform. I didn't make the
Speaker 1: fucking I mean, I made the images, but I didn't
Speaker 1: set the brackets.
Speaker 3: You guys voted for these on social media.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's why we're getting so many comments now
Speaker 1: that it's live of like this guy should have been
Speaker 1: in there, this guy should have been in there.
Speaker 3: Well, where were you? You know?
Speaker 1: Because we had and we had your chance on social
Speaker 1: media and the voicemails to send through who you wanted.
Speaker 3: And a lot of people got overlooked.
Speaker 1: And again I keep going back to voter apathy came
Speaker 1: Williamson's not in there because I think everyone thought that
Speaker 1: he was going to be in there.
Speaker 4: Sam white Locks not even in there, Sam White Lock's
Speaker 4: not in their greatest kept All Black of all time.
Speaker 1: Some are saying that there's too many cricketers in the bracket.
Speaker 1: There are four. There are also four rugby players. And
Speaker 1: to those people, I would say that cricket is our
Speaker 1: too long a wai wai. This is where we came from,
Speaker 1: so there's always going to be an overrepresentation of cricketers.
Speaker 4: It's the same as rugby though it's our two national sports.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 1: There are not a lot of politicians. In fact, there's none.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. And that's, you know, again a
Speaker 1: reflection of who we are as a people. And I
Speaker 1: heard Heath talking yesterday on the podcast like, oh, there's
Speaker 1: going to be some real popularity. You know, some people
Speaker 1: are going to get through just because they're popular, like
Speaker 1: I don't know, like the four Square guy, maybe mister
Speaker 1: Whippy yeah.
Speaker 3: Or Horald the Draft howld the draft so beat?
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's and like I said yesterday, there's not some
Speaker 4: sort of manipulated rock countdown.
Speaker 3: No, this is for the people, by the people.
Speaker 1: And if a joke nomination nominee makes it through, then
Speaker 1: fucking so bad. If the four Square guy beats Charlie
Speaker 1: up and then the four Square guy beats Charlie Upham.
Speaker 4: That's like, you know what, it's proud of the people.
Speaker 4: I don't know if you recall in England. Every year
Speaker 4: in Britain there Britain's Got Talent or with their whatever
Speaker 4: talent contests they have and Simon cow is involved in
Speaker 4: and Britain's Got Talent or whatever they the winner always
Speaker 4: releases a Christmas song and it's fucking shit, but it
Speaker 4: always goes to number one because it's been on that
Speaker 4: reality TV show, right, and the group or the band
Speaker 4: released the song, it goes to number one everyone in
Speaker 4: Great Britain because it publicized so much. Yeah, and there
Speaker 4: was an app one year and one guy said, fuck this,
Speaker 4: this cannot happen again. This is a national embarrassment and
Speaker 4: he did a campaign to people to go out, download
Speaker 4: and buy Killing in the Name of for the Christmas
Speaker 4: number one. You know what, the Christmas number one that year,
Speaker 4: because they make a big deal of it in the UK,
Speaker 4: the Christmas number one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, it was Killing in the Name of It. See,
Speaker 3: this is for the people, by the people.
Speaker 1: It's like when they had that Arctic exploring boat that
Speaker 1: they wanted to.
Speaker 3: They ran a competition, what are we going to call
Speaker 3: this thing? And they came up with body mc boat face.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they didn't call it that.
Speaker 3: I know they pulled out. So they pulled out.
Speaker 1: Then they tried it again a couple of years later,
Speaker 1: and the winning vote I'm pretty sure was body mcboat
Speaker 1: face too, and I don't.
Speaker 3: Think they called it that either.
Speaker 4: You can't go to the public and then pull out,
Speaker 4: that's bullshit. I recall a certain national body went to
Speaker 4: the public with what uniform should we wear for our
Speaker 4: short form format games?
Speaker 3: What one beij ye? And they were like, what about
Speaker 3: till Yeah?
Speaker 4: And he goes, oh, we counter other votes outside of
Speaker 4: social media as well, because the social media votes were
Speaker 4: off the scale.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we know for a fact you can't can't.
Speaker 4: Do that two months before a summer because those uniforms
Speaker 4: have already been made. I've already gone to print, have
Speaker 4: gone to print, and so we all knew that was
Speaker 4: going to be teal because it already made it. So
Speaker 4: it's like, don't go to the public, yeah, and if
Speaker 4: you do, you've just got to go through it, no
Speaker 4: matter how humiliating the results are.
Speaker 3: So that's that's where we find ourselves.
Speaker 1: And so the first bracket, the first round, the first
Speaker 1: matchup was Sir Edmund Hillary versus Sir Ernest Rutherford, and
Speaker 1: I took to social media to voice my concerns about
Speaker 1: and again not to belittle, will besmirch the good name
Speaker 1: of Sir Edmund Hillary, but I did say ed climbed
Speaker 1: a mountain, Ernest Rutherford unleashed the power of God.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But like I mentioned on your comment, I feel like
Speaker 4: I really know er Rutherford, whereas I feel like I've
Speaker 4: got a bit more of an affinity with the apurist,
Speaker 4: the bee keeper. Yes, and Edmund Hillary.
Speaker 1: And I think people like to see themselves in Edmund
Speaker 1: Hillary as well. Here's the quintessential Kiwi.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 1: So he won, so he yeah, he, I think it
Speaker 1: was there were a lot of votes for Ernest Rutherford.
Speaker 1: To be fair, he went, I was sort of having
Speaker 1: this debate with my party yesterday and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: Ernest Rutherford's one hundred dollar note and ed Hillary's on
Speaker 1: the five dollar note, that should show you that at
Speaker 1: least says to me that Ernest Rutherford is five times
Speaker 1: as important to our country as Edmund Hillary is, to
Speaker 1: which she said, well, which do you see more often
Speaker 1: a five dollar note for one hundred dollar note. I'm
Speaker 1: with her, so and so is the public as well.
Speaker 1: So they've gone with They've gone with ed and Sir
Speaker 1: Edmund Hillary. So Edmund Hillary will be going through to
Speaker 1: round two.
Speaker 3: The Greatest bee Keeper a live live like No, I can't.
Speaker 3: I couldn't even tell you who's second.
Speaker 1: This morning, Gary Poyton, the soundkeeper, Gary from zid M,
Speaker 1: He's the sickond bess this morning it is Susie cadovers
Speaker 1: Jason Gunn Ah. I'm a gun guy. Yeah, I'm a
Speaker 1: gang guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: He's the first of the celebrities still with us to
Speaker 1: have weighed in in the comments, and when this first
Speaker 1: went live, his comment is that a vote for Jason
Speaker 1: gunn is a vote for Thingy.
Speaker 3: Absolutely it is. So you've basically got a two for
Speaker 3: one there. If you're a Thinging fan.
Speaker 1: Me personally, I have a long held grudge against Susie Cato.
Speaker 3: You can't hate Susie Cato.
Speaker 1: You can't has to see the cultural impact you've had
Speaker 1: on the country. I'm not going to say it's not
Speaker 1: a great song. The cleanup, clean Up, everybody everywhere has
Speaker 1: helped kindergarten teachers, not just nationally but globally.
Speaker 4: And lovers throughout the world at the end of a
Speaker 4: heavy love making session and lovers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so look, kindergarteners and lovers worldwide, thank Susi Cato.
Speaker 1: My issue with Susi Cato, and I think it's a
Speaker 1: very specific one, is that my mother auditioned to be
Speaker 1: Susie Cado when the auditions were happening, and so she
Speaker 1: went in and when you say.
Speaker 3: Susie Cado, she's a real person.
Speaker 4: You're not playing. You're going for the role of Susie
Speaker 4: Cato here and Susie Cato we're going imagine.
Speaker 1: If you showed up for the Susi Cato You're like,
Speaker 1: She's like, I'm Susie. I was like, you're going to
Speaker 1: get it there, you already got the same name, and
Speaker 1: she was going for the same role.
Speaker 4: Yes, that Susie eventually won.
Speaker 1: That eventually became Susie Cado. Yeah, but at one point
Speaker 1: could have been Lisa Fleming, right and didn't get it.
Speaker 4: And I just so, who holds the grudge? You or
Speaker 4: Lisa Fleming?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Me?
Speaker 1: Yeah right, I don't mom cares at all, but I'm
Speaker 1: just like, my life would have been way different if
Speaker 1: my mum was Susie Cado.
Speaker 3: What do you think I reckon?
Speaker 1: I reckon it would have I don't know, for better
Speaker 1: or worse.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, you always assume the grass is going to
Speaker 4: be greener.
Speaker 3: I think he would have been teased quite heavily. You're
Speaker 3: assuming I wasn't.
Speaker 1: Teas more than usual. I think it would have been
Speaker 1: a rock star my mum. I feel like having a
Speaker 1: dad who was a wiggle.
Speaker 3: Still, I don't reckon that's a good thing. Okay.
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, so the audition tape existed for a while
Speaker 1: as well, that mum did, and it was a good audition,
Speaker 1: but you know, when you see yourself on camera, it's
Speaker 1: just more device. So every year that would come out,
Speaker 1: and me and my uncle would take turns hiding it
Speaker 1: somewhere at my grandparents house so that she couldn't find
Speaker 1: it and destroy it, so that every year we could
Speaker 1: pop that thing back into the VHS around Christmas time
Speaker 1: the whole family could watch it. One year it got
Speaker 1: ripped out of the VCR and thrown into the fireplace.
Speaker 3: Oh so heartbreaking.
Speaker 4: Oh no, so that's that's before you could digitize it
Speaker 4: and it stays online forever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I never got I never got the chance to
Speaker 1: put it onto DVD, and so yeah, we'll never get
Speaker 1: to see that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, so you're a Jason Gunny then.
Speaker 1: So I am by default Adjason gun guy. Thingy very
Speaker 1: unlucky not to make the final bracket. We had to
Speaker 1: cut the line off somewhere, but he did get a
Speaker 1: lot of votes initially. So yeah, I am by default
Speaker 1: going for Jason Gunn, which is subsequently a vote for Thingy.
Speaker 1: If he makes it through this round, we should probably
Speaker 1: get him on the show to pitch his case. But
Speaker 1: as it stands, the only way that he can make
Speaker 1: it through is if youre going to vote for him.
Speaker 1: You cound do that on Instagram. You can do it
Speaker 1: on Facebook. You can send a voicemail in here. You
Speaker 1: can bring Mike Lane. His number is Hey. So get
Speaker 1: your votes in. I got enough of those messages. Get
Speaker 1: your votes in right now, We're going to take a
Speaker 1: quick break. We'll be right back to talk Olympics. Right
Speaker 1: just before we talk Olympics, this is your last chance
Speaker 1: to get in the drawer for the exclusive opportunity to
Speaker 1: win a VIP Warriors experience, tickets, food beverages, vouchers. Helenstein's
Speaker 1: kit takes VP to three two, three six to be
Speaker 1: a VP at the one and only Warriors game left
Speaker 1: the season, thanks to the a sec in Helenstein's brothers.
Speaker 1: I want to start with the Olympics overnight. We weren't
Speaker 1: in middle contention for anything last night, but the story
Speaker 1: of last night was the C two debacle.
Speaker 4: Those are the two canoeing dudes. This is the drop
Speaker 4: knee teapot. Quite sexual looking. Well, you're on one knee.
Speaker 4: It's a lot of hip thrusting, yeah, and it looks
Speaker 4: dangerously hard to balance in those things.
Speaker 3: It looks about thirty centimeters wide.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're on You're on one knee with another big
Speaker 4: steak in front of you, and you have to like
Speaker 4: fully hip thrust your way to the line. It looks
Speaker 4: quite ungainly but.
Speaker 3: Also quite hot. And they lost by like so much.
Speaker 1: It was it's been compared this morning to Edie the
Speaker 1: Eagle or Eric the Eel. Yeah, who Eric the Eel
Speaker 1: was the guy who I forget what country is from.
Speaker 1: But basically to qualify he had to go and swim
Speaker 1: around a barrel in the middle of a river. And
Speaker 1: then come back. He had never swum, I don't think
Speaker 1: in an Olympic lengths pool before. He was not familiar
Speaker 1: with the starting gun. He didn't recognize it when it
Speaker 1: went off.
Speaker 3: But there's a big difference here because there was a
Speaker 3: means to an end.
Speaker 1: Yes, this So these guys had only picked us up
Speaker 1: three months ago, and it was because they'd actually never
Speaker 1: done the sport before. They are kayakers, not canoers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and so we had qualified the K two team, yes,
Speaker 1: the men's team. So that's that K two is kayak
Speaker 1: with two dudes in it. Yes, yeah, but our K
Speaker 1: four had misqualification. But whoever won the Oceania Champs in
Speaker 1: the C two, which is the canoeing the thing that
Speaker 1: happened last night thrust they got to register two more boats.
Speaker 1: So this was the second opportunity for us. So these
Speaker 1: two dudes went into the Oceania qualifiers which included Australia
Speaker 1: and Fiji and US and that was it. And they
Speaker 1: just managed to beat Ozzie and Fiji, which gave us
Speaker 1: another entry into the Olympics. It's a it's a bizarre
Speaker 1: set of circumstances.
Speaker 4: The loophole that we melt so good on them, that's right.
Speaker 1: And they showed up and instead of just being like, look,
Speaker 1: we'll pull out sick on the day or whatever, they
Speaker 1: were like, fuck it, we can never go.
Speaker 4: Now, you have to. Their biggest worry was disqualification, right,
Speaker 4: but they're not going to take our other boat out
Speaker 4: if we're getting squalified. I think yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure if there was, because that's what they said.
Speaker 4: They said, we just wanted to get to squalified in.
Speaker 1: But I just I love that there were the two
Speaker 1: Kiwi dudes to shout up, just like fuck it, let's
Speaker 1: have a crack.
Speaker 3: How does this on go? Right? It looks quite hard.
Speaker 3: It looks like you need a very strong core to
Speaker 3: keep that balance.
Speaker 1: It also is the least like Olympic looking out of
Speaker 1: all of those sports. It's real, who's our man with
Speaker 1: the flannel shirt, the bloody lumberjack like it looks they
Speaker 1: just look like lumberjacks come up to the thing. One
Speaker 1: of the articles, I think it was on Stuff was
Speaker 1: going after them, saying that they were the disgrace the sport,
Speaker 1: and it was like and then the article was.
Speaker 4: Classic Stuff was was on spin off as well.
Speaker 1: It was like most embarrassing New Zealand performances in an Olympics.
Speaker 1: Fuck it off. They did our country of massive service here.
Speaker 4: Because they turned around with their fucking K four and
Speaker 4: they made the semis. Yeah, so they turned around and
Speaker 4: said suck on that. Yeah, as a means to an end,
Speaker 4: We've got our K four boat in first time in
Speaker 4: like twenty summing years, that K four New Zealand boat,
Speaker 4: and they've made the semis to qualify for the finals.
Speaker 4: So fucking bite it.
Speaker 1: And the other part about it, not only does it
Speaker 1: show the world what we're about as a nation, we're
Speaker 1: about just showing up and having a gods on his crack.
Speaker 3: So I just have like we've never done it before.
Speaker 1: They said they couldn't keep the thing in the lane
Speaker 1: because the kayaks have a rudder but the canoes don't.
Speaker 3: So they are both rowing.
Speaker 1: The fucking only done it like a handful of times
Speaker 1: between the two of them. And then if I row
Speaker 1: on this side, then he rose on that side. Now
Speaker 1: we're out of the bloody lane. So God bless it. But
Speaker 1: the other part of it is how many times do
Speaker 1: we talk about on this podcast at the pub.
Speaker 4: We'd love to.
Speaker 1: Have someone in the lane, who's just like a normal guy,
Speaker 1: just to see how good this is.
Speaker 2: It.
Speaker 1: We had it here. These two dudes have never done
Speaker 1: this before.
Speaker 4: Forty five seconds behind the finishes. Yeah, in the quarterfinal.
Speaker 4: What I was gatted about that was in their heat.
Speaker 4: They got smoked in the heat, and it was watching
Speaker 4: and luckily the commentator got given the information beforehand and said, hey,
Speaker 4: there's the reason they're in theres loophole. They may be
Speaker 4: doing it for three months. They don't expect much from
Speaker 4: the kiwis, and then from the start it's got smoked. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but then they lost their heat by miles. They still
Speaker 4: qualified for the quarter finals, so they had to come
Speaker 4: back again, and in the quarter final they went even
Speaker 4: slower because they were trying to preserve energy for their
Speaker 4: K four, which was like forty minutes later. So they
Speaker 4: just basically just yeah, because the other part of it
Speaker 4: is like, yeah, they've they said they've only been doing
Speaker 4: this for three months.
Speaker 1: I reckon they did it three months ago. I haven't
Speaker 1: done it since because.
Speaker 3: Why would they?
Speaker 1: Why would they? That training is a completely different sport.
Speaker 1: And then every now and then that I reckon they
Speaker 1: would have been like, oh fuck. We also have to
Speaker 1: do the other one on Sunday on yours have a crap,
Speaker 1: I've only got the kayakers, yeah, or we'll just turn
Speaker 1: around and just use it one way.
Speaker 3: God bless those dudes. I love those two.
Speaker 4: I also love the kayaking the K four when they
Speaker 4: take off and the women's K four have made the
Speaker 4: they made the final semi.
Speaker 3: I think it's tonight they.
Speaker 4: Won their heat.
Speaker 3: But I just love it.
Speaker 4: It's like a propeller when they all go once, you know,
Speaker 4: when they're just like that when they're in sync.
Speaker 3: I think it looks awesome. Yeah it does.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Carrington's throw in the K two in the K
Speaker 1: four our other K two that qualified Amy Fisher and
Speaker 1: her mate and they.
Speaker 4: Got knocked out.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: But and I like the fact that all the women's
Speaker 4: K four all had the same here does They had
Speaker 4: the tight plat on, the kind of corn Rows Viking style,
Speaker 4: same glasses, same badass black long sleeve out the top.
Speaker 1: Our kit looks sick. Yeah, we look mean when we
Speaker 1: show up in black and all black. Some of the
Speaker 1: get ups that other people are wearing look ridiculous.
Speaker 3: It was another team looks like they had polo shits on.
Speaker 1: They did and I was like, you're not gonna win
Speaker 1: if I if I showed up again, this would have
Speaker 1: been my hunch on the on the court, on the field,
Speaker 1: you're not winning.
Speaker 3: With the zip in your uniform. It's sorry, fully like
Speaker 3: her up.
Speaker 4: I want you, I want the full crey, I want
Speaker 4: the full wrap around glasses.
Speaker 1: Yeahs in terms of kit ours is number one. Number
Speaker 1: two is Albania. They've got the red flag with a
Speaker 1: black eagle dragon thing on it and they put and
Speaker 1: that's the uniform and it looks terrifying.
Speaker 4: I did see Amy Fisher rolling pit vipers as well,
Speaker 4: revolving the That was good.
Speaker 3: Enjoyed that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's again another massive hunch. The other one, I
Speaker 1: know that the sport's caught your our man, King Julian
Speaker 1: the Lemur from Madagascar. He's climbing for New Zealand.
Speaker 4: They ran up a drain pipe. The climbing event as easy.
Speaker 4: My favorite, Like they get up a fifteen meter wall
Speaker 4: and a guy set the world record.
Speaker 3: He got form four.
Speaker 4: And a half seconds or something. Get up a fifteen
Speaker 4: meter wall. You need to hire those kind of people
Speaker 4: to rob banks and shit for you. Yeah, Like they
Speaker 4: just scale stuff out of here. Yeah, imagine imagine imagine
Speaker 4: he pinched your handbag or your camera took off. You
Speaker 4: chased after him, and he's been straight up fifteen. Me'd
Speaker 4: be like four seconds is fifteen the fucking owl.
Speaker 3: I quite like it.
Speaker 4: I don't quite like the technical one. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you out checked out the technical. That one's goofy
Speaker 4: so and it's like they fall off and have another go.
Speaker 1: So it's that one's bouldering and the walls on all
Speaker 1: different angles and you've got to climb up and you
Speaker 1: get points for touching different it does it looks goodyous.
Speaker 1: They got one foot behind their head and then they
Speaker 1: got one hand on the thing and then they reach
Speaker 1: over with the other hand and that's how they score.
Speaker 1: It's just kind of lam it's cool when they jump
Speaker 1: across the wall.
Speaker 3: That looks cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but make that an event.
Speaker 1: Yeah, then do water on that the wall climbing thing.
Speaker 1: I had to ask a few questions about this because
Speaker 1: I was like, how how does it work? First of all,
Speaker 1: the wall configuration is the same at every.
Speaker 4: Event, and it's the same size holes.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah right that there's like a standard thing for it.
Speaker 1: And so our girl who tits leaf. She's apparently got
Speaker 1: one of those set ups. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: at her house, but so it's yeah, it's the same
Speaker 1: configuration every time.
Speaker 3: That's why she was up against this.
Speaker 1: Polish woman who I think set the world record then
Speaker 1: broke it like three times in the heats.
Speaker 4: Well that's what I think, King Julian he beat her
Speaker 4: former world champ, the Iranian. Yeah, and he was like
Speaker 4: shocked and he shook his hand and then dropped down
Speaker 4: to his knees and started like to the Iranian guy
Speaker 4: because he's a bit of a legend and he just
Speaker 4: knocked him out of the Olympics, right, and now he's
Speaker 4: up against the current.
Speaker 3: World world record.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so man for that, that will record one. When
Speaker 4: I saw them to it four and a half seconds,
Speaker 4: that was insane.
Speaker 1: It honestly looks like when they film movies and like
Speaker 1: a Spider Man movie and you see the behind the
Speaker 1: scenes and he's got the harness us or like a
Speaker 1: pink concert, Yeah, shooting out over the crowd.
Speaker 4: Well, you threw out a conspiracy theory, but really that
Speaker 4: rope is pulling them up.
Speaker 1: Yes, I have a I have a strong suspicion. I
Speaker 1: have a strong suspicion that the rope is helping them,
Speaker 1: and so I said, if I think, what we need
Speaker 1: to do to test that theory is get rid of
Speaker 1: the rope and have a net that follows them up instead,
Speaker 1: so there's nothing, they're not touching anything, and if they
Speaker 1: fall off, they're still safe.
Speaker 4: I reckon, go one further and then as soon as
Speaker 4: they start, the floor disappears into a pool. So then
Speaker 4: if they fall off, they fall into water of acid
Speaker 4: and and sharks with leaser beams on their heads.
Speaker 1: That opens up into a pit of saw bloodes. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just looking at it. It's probably
Speaker 1: an optical illusion.
Speaker 4: It is because it's counterweighted, that's all I think. You
Speaker 4: don't think it helps you.
Speaker 1: But you can't fall right, So once you're up, you
Speaker 1: could conceivably lean against the rope. So like say you've
Speaker 1: gone up three meters, Yeah, could you then lean against
Speaker 1: the rope?
Speaker 3: You probably could, but you're going to that's to one
Speaker 3: or two seconds gone. No.
Speaker 1: No, But what I'm saying is I feel like it's
Speaker 1: helping them. I feel like the rope.
Speaker 3: Is so I regon they've I reckon, they've played that loophole.
Speaker 1: I reckon, I reckon that bamboozling us all I reckon.
Speaker 1: I reckon as a sport. So behind the wall, that
Speaker 1: guy set the world wreckord.
Speaker 4: Behind the wall, there's like Oblix who's just like leaning
Speaker 4: back and just dragging this guy up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I think I think three of his mates
Speaker 1: are over the other side of the road.
Speaker 3: Yeah and yeah, just pulling him the whole up of
Speaker 3: the wall.
Speaker 1: I've hoodwinked us as a global community only, I mean
Speaker 1: it's only the second time it's been in the Olympics.
Speaker 4: How fast you reckon?
Speaker 3: You hear get up that fifteen met war.
Speaker 1: I could not get up that fifteen meter wall? Is
Speaker 1: how fast I could do that. I would die of
Speaker 1: old age before I ever got up that thing.
Speaker 3: You know, I reckon, you're able to do it.
Speaker 1: I have the perfect combination of fat and weak that
Speaker 1: would stop me from getting up a wall.
Speaker 4: It is also, you know, on a five degree overhang,
Speaker 4: so like backwards, yeah, well five degrees.
Speaker 1: It's slightly bad. I'd fall over looking at the thing.
Speaker 1: I reckon if I tried to. I know, I'm very
Speaker 1: acutely aware of how Yeah, I can't climb. If you
Speaker 1: were to design a climber, it would not look like me.
Speaker 3: Nope, you're right.
Speaker 1: Do you think you'd get of it like.
Speaker 3: I get out at it?
Speaker 4: Eventually, I reckon, But not in four and a half
Speaker 4: seconds or five seconds. No, no, no, no no, I don't
Speaker 4: reckon even in a minute. I regon not even two minutes.
Speaker 4: I reckon. I reckon. I'm getting the like sewing machine out,
Speaker 4: you know when you out there, and yeah, I reckon.
Speaker 1: That free solo dude could climb El Capitan before I
Speaker 1: could get to the top of that thing.
Speaker 3: Receiving old King Jillian can give the sky tower goo
Speaker 3: just on on the outside.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, no, I think I'd need to
Speaker 1: pitch one of those canopies, you know when they sleep
Speaker 1: on the side of the hill for a night and
Speaker 1: they keep going two meters up you pitched. I'm boiling
Speaker 1: a jug another meter yeah, put the team down again.
Speaker 4: She's gonna shut it down.
Speaker 1: Of the day fellas, and I'm in the teen again,
Speaker 1: just and I'm up again.
Speaker 3: I reckon.
Speaker 1: It'll be like a four day exposition. I'm ordering uber
Speaker 1: eat sohile I'm up there as well, because I'm only
Speaker 1: three meters off the ground. Doing bull doco full Netflix it.
Speaker 1: I need to be my partner's just like ya. I
Speaker 1: just wish you'd stop doing it.
Speaker 4: You know. It's so date.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a family one day, and I just
Speaker 1: need to start thinking about that four meters up.
Speaker 3: The big back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so no, I don't think I could get up
Speaker 1: that well. The other Olympics last night was our girl Ramsden.
Speaker 1: She came Maya Ramsden. She came sixth, and it was
Speaker 1: the most and the fifteen hundred meters heats and it
Speaker 1: was the most hectic sixth finish that you'll ever see
Speaker 1: in your life because sixth was the cutoff for qualify,
Speaker 1: for automatic qualifier, and so she was. This girl was
Speaker 1: in sixth. There's about ten meters between her and the
Speaker 1: person and fifth. Our girl was another ten meters back.
Speaker 1: I think she was an eighth when they came into
Speaker 1: the last one hundred meter and she just burned them
Speaker 1: all and just pip this girl right at the post.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were hauling ass though those last ones.
Speaker 3: But that's quite. That is quite.
Speaker 4: That's fifteen hundreds brutal because they have I think they
Speaker 4: have two heats then a semi in a final like
Speaker 4: you've got to run the fifteen hundred like three or
Speaker 4: four times to make the final, and I.
Speaker 1: Reckon it's the most brutal distance. Oh fuck, that take
Speaker 1: it from me. I know, but I know a thing
Speaker 1: or two about running.
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, yeah, you run, run a couple of half marathons,
Speaker 4: run a couple of half baths, right, one enough when
Speaker 4: you overran.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know much about it. I
Speaker 1: ran about twenty four k's in the first one. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you know about much about how the
Speaker 1: metric system works. But that's a lot of fifteen hundreds,
Speaker 1: all right, So I know a thing or two about
Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred. But if you ever ran it at school,
Speaker 1: it's the like lactic acid. Yes, it's the king of
Speaker 1: the lactic acid build up. Yeah, those hundred meters. Dudes,
Speaker 1: they'll run two to three in a night. You're not
Speaker 1: running two or three fifteen hundreds in a night. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's brutal. When she threw I presume she's got another
Speaker 1: one tonight.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Is it the court to their quarters or straight
Speaker 4: to Seemi's. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just remember there's always a hell of a lot
Speaker 3: of them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, too many and it's and it's hectic as well
Speaker 1: because you're in there just mixing it with people.
Speaker 3: And these people shovening, pushing.
Speaker 4: It was one of them. Did you want one of
Speaker 4: the heats where they started screaming at each other? Yes?
Speaker 4: I did see that was that was great And a
Speaker 4: lot of pushing and yelling. Yeah, that's thing. To mike
Speaker 4: them up, oh one hundred percent, that would be great.
Speaker 4: All yelling at each other in different languages. Even making
Speaker 4: up the sprinters would be good because I'm sure they're
Speaker 4: smack talking. Not while they're sprinting, no, but at the start,
Speaker 4: oh big time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're sting.
Speaker 4: It be funny.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't thought.
Speaker 4: So you're going a hundred and you're fucking smack talking
Speaker 4: talking ship the whole way down the track.
Speaker 1: Uh. In off field action. Luana Alonso she has she
Speaker 1: is a Paraguayan swimmer. She has been asked to leave
Speaker 1: not just the Olympic village, but Paris as a whole
Speaker 1: and probably the country. What she's back in Paraguay. Now,
Speaker 1: what she did was she showed up. She's twenty years old.
Speaker 1: I think it's her second Olympics. She bombed out in
Speaker 1: her heat and then retired from the sport and then
Speaker 1: went back into the village and was just presumably I'm
Speaker 1: reading between the lines, presumably just on the past from
Speaker 1: there on out.
Speaker 4: I can't imagine she's the only one.
Speaker 3: No, absolutely not.
Speaker 4: So why she been picked on.
Speaker 1: The official line from the Paraguay and Olympic team was
Speaker 1: that she was creating an inappropriate.
Speaker 4: Environment.
Speaker 1: Environment an inappropriate environment is what she was creating. So yeah,
Speaker 1: Luana Alonso is both her name and her Instagram handle.
Speaker 4: She must have done something terrible because there is a
Speaker 4: lot of athletes that go out in the first week.
Speaker 1: They was saying that she was distracting other athletes who
Speaker 1: still had yet to com pete, and I think that
Speaker 1: part of it is also that she retired from the
Speaker 1: sports straight away, so I think they were like, oh,
Speaker 1: come on, so you knew you were going to do this,
Speaker 1: and we flew you out here to Paris to bomb
Speaker 1: out in the semi final and then walk around in
Speaker 1: the in the Olympic village.
Speaker 3: God bless you, Luni.
Speaker 4: I mean, you're you're welcome it in the New Zealand
Speaker 4: accommodation anytime. I'm sure the New Zealand seven Steam me
Speaker 4: and seven steam were welcome out.
Speaker 3: They've been there for a couple of weeks now, yep,
Speaker 3: just on they have.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So apparently part of the issue was she wasn't wearing
Speaker 1: the team kit around the village, and also that she
Speaker 1: was sort of starting to overstay welcome. She's distracting out
Speaker 1: the other athletes. They said, you have to leave the village. Yes,
Speaker 1: So she went and put herself up on the Champcelsa
Speaker 1: in a hotel there, went on a shopping spree, was
Speaker 1: still hanging around the village. All right, that's it. You're
Speaker 1: still distracting all the athletes. You now have to leave Paris,
Speaker 1: and so they flew her back to Paraguay. So ah
Speaker 1: Alonzo au revoir. Ell you a in a alonzo al.
Speaker 4: Like Fernando, like Fernanda.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Like, so I go and search that to search Luana
Speaker 4: Alonzo like Fernando Lonza.
Speaker 3: You'll find it.
Speaker 6: Ok.
Speaker 1: It is time now for it is a Wednesday, despite
Speaker 1: the fact that I thought it was a Tuesday because
Speaker 1: it took your toself. It is time then for a
Speaker 1: halfbake sports idea, half b sports idea, And I think
Speaker 1: that today's will be the dumbest half bake sports idea
Speaker 1: that I've ever unleashed white something and it is it
Speaker 1: is that England are going to waste us at cricket
Speaker 1: this summer. And that is because if you have a
Speaker 1: look at Afghanistan at the most recent World Cup, they
Speaker 1: went tremendously. Pakistan historically have done very well in the
Speaker 1: one days. Afghanistan has been at war for the best
Speaker 1: part of twenty years. Yep, Pakistan's had its own issues. Yes,
Speaker 1: England at the moment, I don't know if you've seen
Speaker 1: the riots that are going on over there. They are
Speaker 1: losing the plot over there in England. And if I've
Speaker 1: learned anything over the last few years, it's that domestic disturbances,
Speaker 1: civil wars, uprisings, these kind of things translate to success
Speaker 1: on the cricket pitch. And I think England are about
Speaker 1: to have an historic summer of cricket based on the
Speaker 1: riots that are going on over there. I will throw
Speaker 1: into that Bangladesh, who I think may conquer the cricketing
Speaker 1: world over the next twelve months.
Speaker 3: Political issues going on.
Speaker 1: Two hundred and fifty people killed in riots in Bangladesh.
Speaker 1: That equates directly to cricketing success.
Speaker 3: Okay, that is one of the stupidest things you said,
Speaker 3: is it?
Speaker 1: Or the most famous victory that we've had over England
Speaker 1: was only a few months removed from the Wellington riots
Speaker 1: outside Parliament with our tearing cobblestones out of the floor
Speaker 1: and throwing them at people. Well, that was only about
Speaker 1: six months before we then turned around in Wellington and
Speaker 1: one one of the most historic Test match victories of
Speaker 1: all time.
Speaker 4: I can't you can't count that tense city best as
Speaker 4: a riot. Surely it was just a fucking bunch of
Speaker 4: unemployed and unemployable.
Speaker 1: And so I'm calling for cricket fans across the catch right,
Speaker 1: this is if you want the Black Caps to win
Speaker 1: this and start throwing some rocks, get out there and
Speaker 1: cause some civil disobedience, get into some good trouble. Let's
Speaker 1: start a civil war if we're serious about this cricket thing.
Speaker 3: There. I know this thing, the stuff that's happening in
Speaker 3: England is it's outrageous.
Speaker 4: But there is one hilarious piece of video of an old, bald,
Speaker 4: white supremacist guy yelling at the police and like banging
Speaker 4: on these shields and he gets.
Speaker 3: Hit from behind by a brick thrown.
Speaker 4: By one of his own and he kind of goes oh,
Speaker 4: turns around and kind of goes for and then just
Speaker 4: gets one from straight in the nuts and he drops
Speaker 4: down on one knee and he says, under friendly fire
Speaker 4: is coming lef right and said, it's one of the
Speaker 4: most poetic pieces of footage I've seen in a long time.
Speaker 4: If you haven't seen it, you'll be able to find
Speaker 4: it four times good.
Speaker 1: It's just something so funny about the way it happens
Speaker 1: in slow motion. Yeah, blah blah blah. Anyway, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think England are in for a hell of a summer cricket,
Speaker 1: So Bangladesh and about it.
Speaker 4: Let's put this into the archive and replay it again.
Speaker 4: And when we do the hot take time machine, yep,
Speaker 4: and replay it again Wednesday in mid December, when the
Speaker 4: Third Test is over.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and in between then we're going to start a
Speaker 1: civil war here in New Zealand, maybe a bit of
Speaker 1: north first south.
Speaker 3: It's just good. That's good on it.
Speaker 1: That's good, honest fun, good honest civil disobedience. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take one more quick break. We'll come back with
Speaker 1: yours please.
Speaker 2: Yours please, brought to you by Leader Home of.
Speaker 1: The been brought to my attention that one of the
Speaker 1: ones that I put in for today was actually played
Speaker 1: out yesterday, and it was the guy talking about how
Speaker 1: do you drink water?
Speaker 3: How do you drink I've just bought a water bottle
Speaker 3: in an attempt to h drate more. I drate more.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so do you just buff that whole bottle or
Speaker 1: you just no? It's a leader, so it's unbiffable. But
Speaker 1: I go, I'll go half their bottle in one go.
Speaker 1: We're about to go to beer fist. You're saying you
Speaker 1: can't puffer leader. I'm saying I could, but I'm not
Speaker 1: sitting beer fist pace every time I drink water.
Speaker 3: But I may need to start training.
Speaker 1: You're right, that is a good point, So that one's
Speaker 1: the button, but will have been that excuse me first
Speaker 1: call here?
Speaker 4: Yours, hey fellas, are just a little fact check here.
Speaker 4: Yesterday you said that Dominican Republic is beating US per
Speaker 4: capitol Dominica, but they actually have a million eleven million people.
Speaker 4: I think you might be thinking of Dominica, you uncultured
Speaker 4: fucking swine. Okay, fu booking North.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we did change it.
Speaker 4: We got corrected by someone else that it was Dominica,
Speaker 4: not the Dominican There.
Speaker 1: Were four messages waiting in a books this morning.
Speaker 4: I know and look Dominica, Dominica Republic. You know tomato tomato, like,
Speaker 4: come on.
Speaker 3: What's going on with it?
Speaker 1: Also, don't don't pretend any of you guys that affect
Speaker 1: chick does that.
Speaker 4: You fucking knew that before. Correct, there's Olympics, googled it.
Speaker 4: You didn't know that exactly. You're not walking around with
Speaker 4: that fact in your head. Yeah, in fact you, but
Speaker 4: thank you for you miss.
Speaker 1: The Dominican Republic shits half of the island with Haiti obviously.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really hat another call here your spirts.
Speaker 6: Great yarn about the Turkish shooter, even if it was
Speaker 6: clearly bullshit, mainly because there's not many Turkish ladies called Sharon.
Speaker 6: But I still loved it. And I would love if
Speaker 6: you guys could make up some more about random athletes
Speaker 6: and see if I could spread them before some miserable
Speaker 6: kill joy fact check. Everyone's the fun for everybody. Also,
Speaker 6: Moti games not sport, get rid of it. And I
Speaker 6: love water. I reckon, it's great.
Speaker 4: There you go, there you go. That's the water debate.
Speaker 4: Do you you do enjoy water.
Speaker 3: Enjoy is not the right word.
Speaker 4: He he covered a lot there, Yes, in that thirty seconds.
Speaker 3: I think the first point was the most salient.
Speaker 1: We need to for every medal that we win from
Speaker 1: here on out, we need to come on here the
Speaker 1: next day and just write a completely bullshit article about them.
Speaker 4: Read it as if it's facts. Here's the backstory on
Speaker 4: such and such.
Speaker 1: We miss the real trick with Fin Butcher because I
Speaker 1: feel like he would have loved it, in fact, did
Speaker 1: we Let's do it tomorrow.
Speaker 4: I have heard a great story about his upbringing. Oh
Speaker 4: really yeah, so we'll do that tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Okay, great, Yeah, I think this is something we need
Speaker 1: to bring in for every metal that we earn and
Speaker 1: just complete complete bullshit. See how long it takes Burmers
Speaker 1: to catch on and take it on Facebook, particularly on Facebook.
Speaker 1: Nice story, guys, but maybe chicky fact before you read
Speaker 1: them out into a podcast.
Speaker 3: Don't come to us for actual facts. Another call here,
Speaker 3: you're swizz Yeah, good a fellows. Two things right?
Speaker 1: First, one speed climbing pretty good addition, But how mercenary
Speaker 1: and boring? Why can't we just have like twelve athletes
Speaker 1: just try scale all up the Eiffel Tower first one
Speaker 1: up the top to the observation deck gets gold medal.
Speaker 3: Easy.
Speaker 2: And second thing is the track.
Speaker 3: How good is it?
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what is a sore thing to
Speaker 1: watch is when the athletes line up and do their
Speaker 1: punishing little Fortnight dance when they get introduced.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the King Kong does sound appealing.
Speaker 4: Where you just get all the athletes and whatever city
Speaker 4: it's in, you climb the tallest structure and you get
Speaker 4: to the top and fly around biplanes around the top.
Speaker 3: You gotta grab a biplane.
Speaker 1: Twenty sixteen at the top of Christ the Redeemer. Yeah, Rio, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would have been delightful. I don't know what they've
Speaker 1: got in Tokyo. Presumably got Tokyo Tower. Yeah, yeah, the
Speaker 1: Tokyo Tower. Oh see, that is a brilliant idea. And
Speaker 1: then you just have the medals there waiting on a rack.
Speaker 1: It's the first person to come and grab it and
Speaker 1: put it around their neck like it's the amazing race.
Speaker 4: Yeah. And then you just got to lean back like
Speaker 4: full King Kong and just give it that one.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great idea. I think that's a good idea.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 4: The Fortnight dances, We're not going to get away from that. Unfortunately,
Speaker 4: there's only going to be more of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I enjoyed the purple track though, that's that's really
Speaker 3: mixed it up. Purple track is cool.
Speaker 1: I think what we're going to see over the next year,
Speaker 1: and I already know I'm going to do it too,
Speaker 1: is the Swedish pole vultue. I think you won, and
Speaker 1: he has celebration. He's put the old one hand in
Speaker 1: the pocket and then did the old Turkish shooter celebration.
Speaker 1: I'm going to do that to celebrate anything that I achieved.
Speaker 1: It's the Turkish shooter, the Turkish shoter.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think that's we're going to see a lot of
Speaker 1: that will be sick of it quicker than the Hot
Speaker 1: Tour Girl, the Career one more yours Pace.
Speaker 3: Get an.
Speaker 5: I was just listening to some older gender podcast and
Speaker 5: I was wondering what Julane's thoughts are on the bro
Speaker 5: job and if he's done any bro jobs lately. Cheers
Speaker 5: love you, Glane.
Speaker 3: The bro job.
Speaker 4: Look, I've done a self job, but you know we're
Speaker 4: talking about we're talking about I'm talking about the same
Speaker 4: thing here with a bro job. I am, I am.
Speaker 1: I think I pitched this as a promo idea in
Speaker 1: my early days, just the bro jobs, just for Men's
Speaker 1: Health Week. Yeah, it's just about men helping men. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and sort of just two dudes just looking into each other.
Speaker 3: Hey, doing man do a bro job?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Everything okay with you give you made a bro job?
Speaker 3: How's everything at home?
Speaker 1: And then one of the dudes just slowly goes down
Speaker 1: out of shot and it cuts the black and white
Speaker 1: bro job.
Speaker 3: It's men helping men.
Speaker 4: Didn't take off, didn't it?
Speaker 1: Nah? I say, I couldn't find a sponsor for it.
Speaker 4: I thought there was going to be a little bit
Speaker 4: more wholesome than what you went with it. I thought
Speaker 4: it was like men helping men do jobs. So like
Speaker 4: you come around the house and do jobs, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean? Maybe do some earthworks. Maybe that is
Speaker 4: exactly what I meant. I mean, what did you think
Speaker 4: I meant? Well, the head disappearing below the shot? He
Speaker 4: disappear or yeah, the bro job. I'm a huge fan,
Speaker 4: if you want to do it. I don't think I've
Speaker 4: partake and a bro job myself, but I hey, I'm
Speaker 4: still young.
Speaker 3: H Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't say no to many things.
Speaker 1: I don't even know if we're talking about the same
Speaker 1: thing at this point. Now is as good as times can?
