Speaker 1: Live from the Export Beer Garden studio and brought to you,
Speaker 1: as always by Export Ultra, the bear for here. This
Speaker 1: is the Agenda Podcast for Thursday, the twenty eighth of November.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and claf Trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Export a Vulture.
Speaker 3: And we are still in Crosshatch.
Speaker 1: We're coming to you live and direct from the Romata
Speaker 1: Hotel across the road from Takaha Stadium or what will
Speaker 1: be Ta Cars Stadium in a year or two time.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the gun helpful leather over there
Speaker 1: or that instructure.
Speaker 4: April twenty twenty six. That's what That's what our cap
Speaker 4: driver told us. Yeah, but it looks from the outside
Speaker 4: it looks like it should be ready sooner than that,
Speaker 4: but obviously there's a lot going on.
Speaker 3: Yeah elsewhere.
Speaker 1: It's one of those stadiums that sort of looks a
Speaker 1: little bit like Forsyth Bar, where it's like giant scaffolding
Speaker 1: worth glad wrap around it and you're like, how long
Speaker 1: could that take really?
Speaker 3: But they are they're over there guing health leathering. Impressive.
Speaker 1: This is not an ad for the Remata, but impressive
Speaker 1: soundproofing here I can hear anything.
Speaker 4: Because there is about a thousand people working on that
Speaker 4: site right now. But yeah, well it helps that we're
Speaker 4: on the other side of the building. A Test cricket
Speaker 4: starts today.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Happy cricket Christmas.
Speaker 4: So we're going to pop our cricket cherry eleven o'clock
Speaker 4: this morning. The first Test match. We went and checked
Speaker 4: out Hagley Oval.
Speaker 3: Yesterday. We had a good wander around.
Speaker 4: Had a heady yarn to your mate Bears, Yes, who
Speaker 4: was out heading catcheres to Olli Pope, who is the
Speaker 4: replacement keeper because the original keeper has broken his finger
Speaker 4: or something, so Oli Pope and he's not a full
Speaker 4: time keeper. So he was out there and Bears was
Speaker 4: absolutely creaming balls at him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was giving it to him. He was standing
Speaker 1: in front of the hoarding. The bloody hoardings are pretty resilient,
Speaker 1: I thought, because they were using that as their backstop,
Speaker 1: and Bears was just blasting him, like obliterating him.
Speaker 3: And I saw what I described.
Speaker 1: Yesterday as my first ever professional loser circle.
Speaker 3: Yes it was.
Speaker 4: I mean, look, the loser circle is you might know
Speaker 4: as the warm up routine before a usually before a
Speaker 4: social cricket match where everyone stands in a kind of
Speaker 4: big arc and one person just hats catchers and it
Speaker 4: is known as the loser circle. But this one was
Speaker 4: you that you can't. I don't think you'd call it
Speaker 4: a loser circle because pretty much there was a three
Speaker 4: man slip cordon and a wicket keeper, a man standing
Speaker 4: almost like on a mound, hiffing like a picture. Yeah,
Speaker 4: bears on one knee, yes, and him just like cutting
Speaker 4: everything into the slip cordon.
Speaker 1: He was getting like genuine edges. Yeah, that's on purpose,
Speaker 1: the level of skill you have to have.
Speaker 3: To edge it on purpose. Also, he had no gloves on.
Speaker 3: That was wild.
Speaker 4: So the guy's having a ball at him, a one
Speaker 4: hundred k's and he's down on one knee just nicking
Speaker 4: them to a professional loser circle.
Speaker 1: Yes, Well, I think what we found there is a loophole,
Speaker 1: the loser circle loophole where if you stand in a
Speaker 1: slip cord and it's no longer a loser circle, yes,
Speaker 1: it is now a slip cordon and you're actually training,
Speaker 1: it's not a loser circle.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 4: I also, I mean I wouldn't recommend that you suddenly
Speaker 4: changed from a loser circle into this format of catching
Speaker 4: because you really got to trust the thrower because you
Speaker 4: got no helmet, You've got no nothing like I'd imagine
Speaker 4: if we tried to do it as the acc eleven,
Speaker 4: the first ball would be thrown at my head yeap, yes,
Speaker 4: on purpose, and my nose would be splittered across my face.
Speaker 3: There be no edges. Yeah. It was good though to
Speaker 3: get down there.
Speaker 1: We let to go a bit of a trojan horse
Speaker 1: sort of a route to get into the ground.
Speaker 3: Because we got there and the securities like who the
Speaker 3: hell are you guys?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we said, oh no, no, we just we know
Speaker 1: a few people here, know Dave, Can you let me in?
Speaker 3: Yes? No, we lock down mate.
Speaker 1: Then eventually someone actually did show up for New Zealand Cricket.
Speaker 3: It was like, what are you guys doing here? Oh no,
Speaker 3: we come down to just come to look at the pitch.
Speaker 3: I don't have a look at the pitch and he's
Speaker 3: like oh yeah.
Speaker 1: So then so then we got they didn't and they
Speaker 1: just so happened to be out there training. We had
Speaker 1: a bit of a gas bag with the ground stuff
Speaker 1: there as well. Yeah, worrying stuff. They've got detimo in
Speaker 1: the pitch.
Speaker 4: Not Didimo, but they had they have a grub. That's
Speaker 4: some sort of grub. Yeah, that's come from Scotland. It's
Speaker 4: that they keep it bay by spraying it. We just
Speaker 4: sprayed him down there and it drives him down. So
Speaker 4: it's like the upside down. It's yeah, there's something's going
Speaker 4: on under the ground that we don't know.
Speaker 3: So it's an organism.
Speaker 1: I thought it was some sort of bloody well like
Speaker 1: I said, I thought it was dimo.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, it's a living organism. Okay, so they
Speaker 3: got nuts.
Speaker 4: Basically, they got nuts, they got catoos oval they have
Speaker 4: and the pitch is a classic Hagley start of the
Speaker 4: season pitch.
Speaker 3: She's as green as the outfield. Yeah that's what the
Speaker 3: that's what the ground stuff said. When we were talking
Speaker 3: to them. What do you think it is?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but they said that they played a
Speaker 4: plunk shield Northern District's Canterbury and on day one, three
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty runs were scored in nine wickets were taken.
Speaker 4: So I was like, yeah, okay, that's not not too bad.
Speaker 4: So it's not not a total mindfield, no, but.
Speaker 1: It's I thought it was funny talking to them about
Speaker 1: how they think about preparing because I've never talked to
Speaker 1: a grounds person about that kind of thing before, and
Speaker 1: like the stats that they want to sort of reduce,
Speaker 1: and yeah, he was like, yeah, three and fifty rouns,
Speaker 1: but there's also nine wickets and you could see his
Speaker 1: eyes lighting up and he got that glow. It was
Speaker 1: the same look that Gary steerdead in his eyes when
Speaker 1: he was teaching me how to bowl leggies on the
Speaker 1: floor of TV and Z. It was that, oh, this
Speaker 1: is my thing. I love talking about this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they had it real stiffy for it. So the
Speaker 4: toss is going to be pretty important. I think whoever
Speaker 4: wins the toss will definitely bowl, unless Bears he goes
Speaker 4: for Bears and.
Speaker 3: Decides to bat.
Speaker 4: So but I don't, I don't know. I don't I
Speaker 4: don't think he will. Yeah, their chance, their World Test
Speaker 4: Championships chances are done. England they're out. They lost to
Speaker 4: Pakis are two to one last series, so they're they're
Speaker 4: they're mathematically impossible. So they've got they've got you know,
Speaker 4: they've got the freedom. We have got the pressure. We
Speaker 4: have to win all three of these games first time
Speaker 4: for a while. No Anderson and no broad No, No,
Speaker 4: Jimmy Anderson.
Speaker 3: I thought he'd retire.
Speaker 4: So it's the bowling intake is led by Chris Wokes
Speaker 4: Murder Murder she Wokes and then Gus Atkinson Brighton cass
Speaker 4: Is show him the spinner. So it's all kind of
Speaker 4: unknowns to us. Yeah, you must have checked Brayton or
Speaker 4: in Brighton, Brighton cass So yeah, so it's kind of
Speaker 4: an all new bowling lineup that we're gonna we're going
Speaker 4: to see here. By all accounts, gust consent as a
Speaker 4: pretty as pretty rapid, right, so that's going to be
Speaker 4: And seeing they've got Jacob Bethel number three, he's on debut,
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, doesn't ring a bell left left
Speaker 4: hander at first time betting at number three as well,
Speaker 4: So it's a bit but there's a bit going on. Obviously,
Speaker 4: Nathan Smith will be making his debut for New Zealand
Speaker 4: as part of the Saudi O'Rourke and Matt Henry combo,
Speaker 4: so there's a little bit going on for that England team.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a fascinating first day, yes, because I
Speaker 4: just don't know how to how to pick up. I mean,
Speaker 4: obviously we've got the confidence from India. Yeah, they got
Speaker 4: a fairly kind of fresh team. But they'll be coming
Speaker 4: with the BBC, the McCallum with the Bears BDC.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe they. Who's Sir Jeffrey Boycott.
Speaker 4: Jeffrey boy He is an old Yorkshire cricketer, used to
Speaker 4: play for England. He's the dry ass guy who on
Speaker 4: all the commentaries.
Speaker 1: So he's written an article this week saying that what
Speaker 1: New Zealand should do because we just beat India in
Speaker 1: India three nil. They just lost to who Pakistan two one,
Speaker 1: two to one, both in dust bowls. He said, if
Speaker 1: we had any balls, we'd prepare a dust bowl here
Speaker 1: in New Zealand.
Speaker 3: Well that's what I mentioned.
Speaker 4: You said, it's like Justice one dust bowl. Yeah, well
Speaker 4: for the start and Wellington's my basin, Rezis was my ground.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well he said we don't have the stones to
Speaker 3: do it. Fucking Boycott.
Speaker 4: So Boycott was notoriously slow. He was notoriously known as
Speaker 4: the world's slowest and most boring batsman. People would run
Speaker 4: him out just to get rid of him, like his
Speaker 4: own team. His own team would run him out because
Speaker 4: he was so dull.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, that's like when Chris k occupied the crest
Speaker 1: for all twenty overs of Trade's eleven yea, and yeah
Speaker 1: he scored twenty something himself, but it was directly the
Speaker 1: reason we lost him.
Speaker 3: It wasn't the catchers, it was him holding up an
Speaker 3: end to the T twenty. It's not what you do.
Speaker 3: He set up the brick wall. He's like, I did.
Speaker 3: We're like, yeah, thanks mate, you did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I just I reckon we should do it
Speaker 1: as well. But I don't understand why we don't do
Speaker 1: more of It's so much more fun bowling spin watching
Speaker 1: spin bowlers. Yeah, but we just go green zeema.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. What what do you do to Pip?
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe ask kJ Maybe we'll give him a call.
Speaker 3: How do you prepare a dust bowl? Do you just
Speaker 3: burn the grass off? Is it the type of clay
Speaker 3: that you use? Is it? How do you do you
Speaker 3: just fucking roll the ship out of it until nothing
Speaker 3: can live on it? I don't know.
Speaker 1: You'd have to get the deimo out of it first. Yeah,
Speaker 1: issue didn't get the cartoos out.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think Wellington is the one. I don't know why
Speaker 4: it's got the vibe. Hamilton potentially could turn into it.
Speaker 4: You could turn that into a dustball.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, what happened last year when all of a
Speaker 1: sudden the spinners looked incredible, that was because it was bouncing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, something happened last season where it was remember we
Speaker 4: misread this African Test and it was turning on day one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we dropped no spinner. We had no spinners. That
Speaker 3: were like fuck Glenn and you can turn it on
Speaker 3: this It's like oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, no, there was.
Speaker 1: That's great. There should be more of that. Have we
Speaker 1: heard anything about the Barbie Army that in town? Yeah?
Speaker 3: They.
Speaker 4: I don't think I've got a big traveling party, but
Speaker 4: all the Expats come out of the cracks. H they
Speaker 4: like come out of the sewers whenever England tour and
Speaker 4: they all gathered together and sing their sing their songs and.
Speaker 3: Yeah whatever cross Roads is very English town as well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there'll be there'll be a lot of them and
Speaker 4: they will sing every Yeah, that's good. It shows the
Speaker 4: Yonders and we're just so rubbish it doing any of
Speaker 4: that kind of thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah we are.
Speaker 1: Five memories have been a kid at Bloody Jade Stadium
Speaker 1: at Lancaster Park and you know the barmie Army is
Speaker 1: there and they're going crazy.
Speaker 3: They are very song focused.
Speaker 1: Yes, the Barmie Army and English sports fans in general,
Speaker 1: the football fans, the cricket fans will be. They're saying
Speaker 1: swing law Stweech area.
Speaker 4: In the early days, that are one of their greatest chances.
Speaker 4: When when you can get three dollars to the pound,
Speaker 4: and then that's saying we've got one dollar.
Speaker 3: To the pound, we've got two dollars to the pound,
Speaker 3: we've got three. Yeah. I love a good financial about
Speaker 3: coming over here. Just yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I remember going to a game where I actually watched
Speaker 1: Shane Warn play one time, and these dudes up behind me.
Speaker 1: They went to the Barmi Army obviously, but they were
Speaker 1: just yelling who ate all the pies the entire game,
Speaker 1: who ate all the pies? And I just as a
Speaker 1: like ten year old kid, I was like, this is
Speaker 1: the greatest day of my life. You ate all the pies?
Speaker 1: You're allowed to abuse so much? Yeah, what are your fair? Past?
Speaker 1: Me and my dad up there just giving it to him.
Speaker 1: That's powerful. Just while we're talking cricket as well, and
Speaker 1: before we take a quick break, we did. I just
Speaker 1: realized this morning we actually didn't touch on it at all.
Speaker 1: But the IPL auction was over the weekend, a slave auction.
Speaker 1: The slave auction. I hate the way that they say
Speaker 1: that they were sold.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the slave auction that was held in Reed.
Speaker 3: Oh I don't know it was in Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 4: Any Yeah, but only really from Lovely twenty for New Zealand,
Speaker 4: I think. But he got paid to lat On a
Speaker 4: bit million now when he that goes straight to him, right, yeah,
Speaker 4: it does.
Speaker 3: A part of it goes to New Zealand, not.
Speaker 1: For him, no, because he doesn't have the central contract,
Speaker 1: so they wouldn't get a cut of it.
Speaker 3: He doesn't.
Speaker 4: That's it's it's really convoluted about how they pay them
Speaker 4: as well. You've got to play every game, right if
Speaker 4: you're available to every game. It's different from if you
Speaker 4: play every game, and it's kind of kind of pro
Speaker 4: rata to that. So if you don't have the maximum, so.
Speaker 3: If you just don't get picked but you're healthy, you
Speaker 3: don't get paid.
Speaker 4: You get paid not the full whack. Yeah, right, and
Speaker 4: then you got Rishian part went for five million.
Speaker 3: That doesn't pass the sniff test.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they love him though, they love they love him.
Speaker 4: He's the every day's hero. He's a little bit chubby.
Speaker 4: He keeps and he's smecks the ball.
Speaker 1: Like I said, I saw them warming up and we
Speaker 1: were playing against him and he did a bloody handspring.
Speaker 3: I was like, what the fuck is that? This ud?
Speaker 3: Looks like meat?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well he's got for six weeks work, he's got
Speaker 4: five got a million bucks a week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is that is ridiculous.
Speaker 1: I saw that Mitchell, Darrel Mitchell didn't go and I
Speaker 1: was like, that's confusing because I remember he got the
Speaker 1: bag last year.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because Conway. Conway's been selected along with Ravendra. Yes,
Speaker 4: they're the only ones in the first round.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Mitchell missed out and I found out that
Speaker 1: he actually had a reserve price of about four hundred
Speaker 1: and something.
Speaker 3: K oh, we have a limited space remaining on the podcast.
Speaker 3: Set up the memory card. This could be a short podcast.
Speaker 1: No, but well he had a reserve of four hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty cable, which I don't know. I don't understand
Speaker 1: how that's sit but that he just missed out on
Speaker 1: money because of that reserve.
Speaker 3: The reserve too high.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well Ben Stokes has sit them out completely.
Speaker 4: He's pulled himself out of the auction. He's going to
Speaker 4: concentrate and playing for bears.
Speaker 3: He's decided he's got enough money. Yeah, that's ridiculous. And
Speaker 3: Dave good news though, David, dam dumm. He also got
Speaker 3: left off. Oh thank god. Yeah, he didn't get packed either.
Speaker 1: I'd actually probably rather he did get picked than then
Speaker 1: this list of him in the commentary.
Speaker 3: Yeah true, actually, yeah, all right, let us take a break.
Speaker 1: We're going to check the equipment here, make sure it
Speaker 1: doesn't fail us, and then they will be right back.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we don't know how long this podcast
Speaker 1: is going to go for, because we've just received a
Speaker 1: warning on our remote recorder that it's got limited space.
Speaker 1: Didn't tell us how much space it's got left. No,
Speaker 1: there is a number on there.
Speaker 3: This is fourteen.
Speaker 1: Now, that could mean that we've got fourteen minutes left,
Speaker 1: but we've also been recording for fourteen so well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, it's like when Petrolt comes on in the car.
Speaker 4: You don't know exactly how far you can go. Some
Speaker 4: say eighty ks, some say fifty, some say twenty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't have the range on here, so we're
Speaker 1: just going to ride this thing into the Rocks. Joe
Speaker 1: Juria's had to go back early. He would know how
Speaker 1: to fix this. But he is in Auckland setting up
Speaker 1: for the commentary, which is everywhere we go and everyone
Speaker 1: that we've seen since we've been down here in christ
Speaker 1: it just said the exact same thing.
Speaker 3: Oh, he goes down for the cricket. Wow, funnily enough. No, no,
Speaker 3: we'll be back up.
Speaker 1: We will be back up in Auckland to commentate the
Speaker 1: game that's going on just down the road from where
Speaker 1: we are right now. Some other stories in the sporting world,
Speaker 1: Joseph park has just announced a new fight. He's going
Speaker 1: to fight d Boys Dubois du Bois, who is the
Speaker 1: guy who just knocked out Anthony Joshua. Yeah, yes, Anthony Joshua.
Speaker 1: He's going to fight him in Saudi twenty twenty two
Speaker 1: for the IBF title. Which is great news for Joseph
Speaker 1: Parker because he had I believe a contract or some
Speaker 1: sort of agreement in place for the for one of
Speaker 1: the fights in December that he was going to be
Speaker 1: on the card and then for whatever reason, they announced
Speaker 1: the card and he saw he wasn't on it. So
Speaker 1: he's like, oh, they've they've bloody slocked me. I've turned
Speaker 1: my microphone on and my notes ap, it's just written
Speaker 1: down everything. I just said, what the hell? So yeah,
Speaker 1: so Saudi again, Saudi again. That's where it's all happening. Now,
Speaker 1: all happens in Saudi, all of the boxing. I'm fine
Speaker 1: with it. Like I said, for the longest time, I've
Speaker 1: been saying, we should just have one place and everyone
Speaker 1: does all of this sport there and it's happening, and
Speaker 1: it's the Middle East, if youah.
Speaker 3: The only problem is, I mean, the Middle East is fine. Sadi.
Speaker 4: Saudi's a little bit tougher to have a good time,
Speaker 4: and yeah, you know, it's not quite as loose as
Speaker 4: Dubai or even Abdhabi.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, I don't know if all of.
Speaker 4: It needs to be played in Saudi unless they create
Speaker 4: a little principality where you can actually.
Speaker 3: Get past them. Yes, I feel like they'd be open
Speaker 3: to that. Yeah, they probably would.
Speaker 1: They don't mind letting the wistern pigs just roll around
Speaker 1: in their shit if they want to, you know, as
Speaker 1: long as they're not doing they'll let.
Speaker 3: You just sort of go on go and do your
Speaker 3: thing over the Western pegs rolling around in this shit. No.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's good news for Joseph Parker. I'm pretty
Speaker 1: excited about that. To the social media disc do you
Speaker 1: follow Bryson dis Chambeau on Instagram?
Speaker 3: No? I don't. Well, he's worth a follow at the moment.
Speaker 1: He's doing this thing where he's obviously got a putting
Speaker 1: green at the back of his house and he is
Speaker 1: standing in the front of his house on a little
Speaker 1: astro turf thing and he's doing every day he's trying
Speaker 1: to hit a hole in one over his house.
Speaker 4: I've seen memes of people trying to do it and
Speaker 4: then just caning it through their front window.
Speaker 3: Well, this is the thing.
Speaker 1: The entire front of his house is glass too, and
Speaker 1: so he for every day he's doing it, he gets
Speaker 1: that many shots. So it's day fifteen today and he
Speaker 1: took fifteen shots to try and get it spoiler alert
Speaker 1: didn't get it. But every day, yeah, day one one shot,
Speaker 1: day two to two shots. He's very close, like very
Speaker 1: very close. And so he's standing in his driveway heads
Speaker 1: it over his house and his mate standing up on
Speaker 1: top of the roof film in the whole thing so
Speaker 1: that he can see how.
Speaker 3: Close he got. Yeah. Shit, he's getting close. It's like
Speaker 3: the level of skill.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not breaking any news here, but he's
Speaker 1: a pretty good golfer, but just the level of it,
Speaker 1: like to be able to head it over the house
Speaker 1: of that smashing it would be, yeah, what I would
Speaker 1: be aiming to do. But he knows he's about a
Speaker 1: foot off. I'm actually gonna be a bit disappointed when
Speaker 1: he finally does it, but gonna look up Bryson Dcembo.
Speaker 1: It's a good fun little thing to watch. If you
Speaker 1: can spell d chambo, I Billy could. And sticking with
Speaker 1: social media, I saw a video this morning. You know,
Speaker 1: over in the States they can gamble on just about anything,
Speaker 1: so like they you know famously they'll gamble on the
Speaker 1: color of the gatorade after a champion, the tip over
Speaker 1: the coach. You could gamble on the elections over there
Speaker 1: octually to mate who won a lot of money on
Speaker 1: Donald Trump winning the twenty sixteen election. And one of
Speaker 1: the places will take bets on basically things that happen
Speaker 1: in the broadcast. So this morning I watched a video
Speaker 1: of two dudes who won twenty five thousand dollars for
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant's bald spot to appear on the broadcast. So
Speaker 1: the videos of them, they're lining up for free throws,
Speaker 1: he's just checked into the game. They're like yes, yes,
Speaker 1: and then as he's walking in to you know, get
Speaker 1: the rebound from the free throw, it's just right in
Speaker 1: the middle of the screen, just kdi's bald spot. And
Speaker 1: they had a twenty five thousand dollar bet. We need
Speaker 1: to talk to the THEBA about this kind of stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that sounds right for corruption as well, if you're
Speaker 4: going to mate who's working in the broadcast.
Speaker 1: Because that would too like over unders on the length
Speaker 1: that national anthem, right, like celebrity spottings and things like that.
Speaker 3: I think that's something that the ACC could, you know,
Speaker 3: if there was an ACC.
Speaker 4: Shat our own sports pok which is ridiculously like someone
Speaker 4: chugging a beer.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, match. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think we thought big enough because through Super
Speaker 1: Rugby we did have the ACC power play, which was
Speaker 1: any jersey six or nine to score, which I thought
Speaker 1: was quite good, very innovative, But we didn't think far enough,
Speaker 1: you know, like if we had over under one and
Speaker 1: a half butt cracks to be despite yes underpants or yeah,
Speaker 1: underpants budgie smugglers. How many players are wearing you know,
Speaker 1: full undies versus wife fronts. Yeah, I reckon that there's
Speaker 1: a lucrative market that's being untapped there.
Speaker 3: Butt cracks. Yeah, the over under on butt cracks.
Speaker 1: Look, we have to I have a half baked sports
Speaker 1: idea that I haven't I haven't done a half baked
Speaker 1: sports idea in a while. So you got six minutes,
Speaker 1: all right, let me take a break and then let
Speaker 1: me come back and give you a half baked sports
Speaker 1: idea in six minutes or less. Well, it has been
Speaker 1: a long ti time since I've just out a half
Speaker 1: back sports idea. But I was listening to a podcast today.
Speaker 1: I don't follow NFL really or college sport, but I
Speaker 1: do follow NBA, and so when I'm listening to NBA
Speaker 1: basketball podcast, they'll often talk about college football balls mid
Speaker 1: of tears. But they it's Thanksgiving today, I think actually
Speaker 1: tomorrow in the States and over there, what they do
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving is a full day, a full slate of
Speaker 1: college football games.
Speaker 3: So because everyone's off for.
Speaker 1: The day, you've adjusted you sorry, yeah, yeah, phone, You've
Speaker 1: got to have his phone on. He's chasing charge his
Speaker 1: whole life. His phone's upside down on the charge right now.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so they have a full slate of games
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving, we should have that on White Tonguey Day
Speaker 1: because super rugby is already fired up by the end.
