Speaker 1: This is an iHeart Radio New Zealand podcast.
Speaker 2: Out of the Gate with Maddie McClain, Chris Henry and
Speaker 2: Brad Christiansen.
Speaker 3: Oh she.
Speaker 1: Oh this is I'm so happy. Today was such a
Speaker 1: sunny day in Tom mckimccado in Auckland, and I was walking,
Speaker 1: keep going, keep going.
Speaker 4: Sorry, like a shotgun. I kind of found that was
Speaker 4: what was happening. So okay, though, I'm totally fine, don't
Speaker 4: tell you what one of these the wheels is going
Speaker 4: to come right off.
Speaker 3: I love that you don't need the he.
Speaker 1: So I was walking away today that was so sunny,
Speaker 1: and I thought, man, I could do a drink sometimes,
Speaker 1: just those days where it's beautiful and hot. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: thought I need a drink. And then I got a
Speaker 1: got a little ping, a little notification in the group chair.
Speaker 1: Brad Christiansen, I'm bringing beers tonight. Boys were like you,
Speaker 1: and then a hero comes along with a strength to care.
Speaker 1: How can you you know you'll know the answer to this.
Speaker 1: I reka like music music rights. Yes, obviously if we
Speaker 1: were to play Mariah Carey, we would have to pay
Speaker 1: for that. Yes, if you sing it like if we
Speaker 1: sing it, could we feasibly sing the whole Mariah Carey
Speaker 1: song on this podcast without being charged and having to
Speaker 1: pay rights.
Speaker 4: Oh, I think she's probably seen. It's a different sort
Speaker 4: of legal letter. Really, if we sung it, wouldn't Cheason dessssed.
Speaker 4: She's she's due for a big paycheck from the first
Speaker 4: of December, isn't doesn't she just she'd be climbing up
Speaker 4: those things. He'd be being defrosted deathward.
Speaker 3: At the moment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's coming out of the cryogenic freezer
Speaker 2: and ready to sing.
Speaker 1: I listened to I've been listening to and Embrace Yourselves. Boys,
Speaker 1: I've been listening to another podcast recently.
Speaker 3: Okay, not that you listen to your own podcast.
Speaker 1: No, Sometimes I'll debble in our podcast, though. If I
Speaker 1: feel like we've had an interesting chat or a funny chat,
Speaker 1: sometimes I will go.
Speaker 2: Back and listen and listen to that piece. I want, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I want to listen to the I was away. I'll
Speaker 2: clearly listened to.
Speaker 1: Listen I'm away. Did he get into your d N
Speaker 1: He hasn't slipped into my DMS yet.
Speaker 3: I reckon he's a listener.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna call him out on this podcast and see
Speaker 4: if he finds us.
Speaker 1: That's good. Yeah, that's good. Make a big bold claim.
Speaker 1: It's right off our alley, isn't it, big bold claim?
Speaker 1: And then see what happened.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I did notice on his socials today he
Speaker 2: posted a cup of himself drinking a cup of coffee
Speaker 2: or a hot, hot drink of some sort that had
Speaker 2: sexy on the cup.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes you are. I didn't message it that really.
Speaker 4: I thought that you were going straight into the DM
Speaker 4: is why. I mean, he's a very tall cup of
Speaker 4: water milk.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard drink of milk
Speaker 1: talk talk glass of milk, isn't it.
Speaker 3: I've never heard of that saying.
Speaker 4: And you know, you know a median saying tall glass
Speaker 4: of milk talk about let's google it. Oh god, I'm
Speaker 4: behind on my Googles. Just going back, just going back
Speaker 4: a couple of steps. A says, No, you cannot sing
Speaker 4: a song without paying royalties. If it's copywriters, it's automatedly
Speaker 4: copyrighted when it's written down, recorded, given the created exclusive
Speaker 4: rights to perform.
Speaker 3: Distribute, or replicate the work.
Speaker 4: So yeah, because obviously we're in a commercial, commercial space,
Speaker 4: you would have heard a lovely commercial on the way
Speaker 4: in and thank you so much. That'll be paying for
Speaker 4: our Christmas lunch, so we thoroughly appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Talk glass of milk similar to talk glass of water. Okay, tato. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we've got, we've got with zigged and we've zagged, and
Speaker 1: we've gone in so many different directions. I didn't even
Speaker 1: get to make my point, which is that I had
Speaker 1: been listening to this podcast and they asked the questions
Speaker 1: all about pop culture, and they say, what was the
Speaker 1: culture that made you realize like pop culture was for you?
Speaker 1: And sorry that this is a long roundabout way of thinking,
Speaker 1: saying that I've been thinking about what it was for me,
Speaker 1: and I think it was Mariah. I remember vividly, like
Speaker 1: listening to like the Fantasy album and thinking like I'm
Speaker 1: all about this, Like I love this woman, I love
Speaker 1: this music, I love everything about her.
Speaker 4: Now do we think this is you discovering pop culture?
Speaker 3: I mean I think it's a little bit of color
Speaker 3: made a little bit of comb.
Speaker 1: They go hand in hand, don't they.
Speaker 4: It's like, instead of a tall glass of milk, it's
Speaker 4: a tall you know, traffic light from com and coke.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's clean I do remember I was good, wasn't.
Speaker 3: It's so good to have you back, Hey, thanks very much.
Speaker 1: I do remember vividly, like choreographing dance routines like Fantasy.
Speaker 1: I can just picture you doing it, and I do
Speaker 1: remember having that thought of one not like the others.
Speaker 4: I kind of feel like it's almost like a little
Speaker 4: movie montage, and you're here when you were just sort
Speaker 4: of like And we pull away and little Matthew McLain
Speaker 4: is choreographing the song to the Fantasy album as we
Speaker 4: pull away from his room and realize he's.
Speaker 3: Not just like the other boys.
Speaker 4: Yeah, fast forward twenty five years him and as a
Speaker 4: little bit.
Speaker 2: Of so I can't remember why I sheard this last week,
Speaker 2: but we went to when I was in New York
Speaker 2: State side in the Northern Hemisphere.
Speaker 3: You went to Europe American Joe.
Speaker 2: We went to the show Wicked, right, and one of
Speaker 2: the friends I was traveling with said.
Speaker 3: God, you got your gay on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So apparently that was you know, a real really
Speaker 2: fagged it up.
Speaker 4: I got gated up a lot. Apparently, Well, if you
Speaker 4: can't be gay at Wicked, can you be gay?
Speaker 1: Wicked is inherently homosexual without even meaning to be homosexual.
Speaker 1: It is very gay, very gay.
Speaker 4: I mean this is a segue because there is one
Speaker 4: person in this room that has already seen the Wicked.
Speaker 1: Movie in the dark. I put it in the dark.
Speaker 4: Look at that. Were we gonna We're gonna break all roles.
Speaker 4: It just moved straight into the dark.
Speaker 2: Well, let's get it, let's let's do it. Wait the
Speaker 2: fucking what's the what's the timer on the clock? How
Speaker 2: long has it been with s?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Wow, it's with sex minism? And but I feel like
Speaker 1: we could have easily kept going before we got to this,
Speaker 1: But I might as well just bring it up.
Speaker 3: Absolutely.
Speaker 1: I went to worked last night and I went with
Speaker 1: high hopes, high expectations. It exceeded my expectations.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm so excited.
Speaker 1: It is. It is a masterpiece. And it's very gay.
Speaker 1: It's very gay.
Speaker 4: With lots of gays in the audience, lots of gays
Speaker 4: in the audience, lots of lots of well known gays.
Speaker 1: Celebrity Gaze were.
Speaker 3: C clearing you were the well known.
Speaker 1: Feed the backs mateo. It's my motto.

Speaker 1: Are you on the mailing list?
Speaker 5: On the rao to get you always on the mailing,
Speaker 5: award winning podcasts, award winning award own award winning in
Speaker 5: our own minds, if we were organized enough to ever
Speaker 5: like into awards.
Speaker 4: I think we're just going to keep this between us
Speaker 4: and the Gate.
Speaker 3: It's really appen.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they like, they like being here. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but it was epic.
Speaker 1: It was so good, and you know, sometimes you just
Speaker 1: I know, like lots of people felt this way about
Speaker 1: and I did, like I loved, but like Babby was great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but something about working, like those movies sometimes just come
Speaker 1: along that feel you It feels like you're watching peak cinema. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like I remember it. I remember the movies from my
Speaker 1: childhood that felt that way, Like Titanic really felt that way.
Speaker 1: I remember Jumuni really felt that way, those movies that
Speaker 1: those movies there. You've never seen Jumunji.
Speaker 4: Enough of this ship at home. I don't need this
Speaker 4: ship here. No, I don't think I've seen Jumunji.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, were you not a big movie kidders? All right?
Speaker 3: No, No, we lived. I've already been.
Speaker 4: I've already been called out in this in my life.
Speaker 4: So do I you know we're in a safe space, Yes,
Speaker 4: very safe, and we're not yacking. You're young, but young.
Speaker 4: By the way, we lived in a beach town, which
Speaker 4: means that after school you went to the beach. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and it's very privileged to come from the beach down
Speaker 4: and go to beat the beach up of school. But
Speaker 4: there are some key parts of pop culture I have missed,
Speaker 4: especially around the movie front, because of my.
Speaker 3: Very blessed child. Funny though, like it's a great movie
Speaker 3: to watch as an adult. Though is that? I think?
Speaker 1: I think I've got a.
Speaker 4: Lot of other movies ahead of this before I'm allowed
Speaker 4: to get under this one before very Potter.
Speaker 1: If you wanted to come around one night, I'd put
Speaker 1: on I'd put on Dream on Dren watch it with you.
Speaker 3: But I would do that some one that would come
Speaker 3: with you.
Speaker 1: I would do that annoying thing that you do when
Speaker 1: you put on a movie that you've seen and you're
Speaker 1: watching it with someone who hasn't seen it, and that
Speaker 1: I would just sit there on the couch watching you
Speaker 1: watch the movie, waiting for your reactions.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, and I.
Speaker 1: This is this is important part. You've got to watch
Speaker 1: this bit. You want to love this bit.
Speaker 4: I'm going any immortal words say less things now because
Speaker 4: I could definitely get in trouble. But yeah, I do
Speaker 4: have exceimilar experiences like that where ob guess I wouldn't
Speaker 4: have to pick my phone up because that's always one
Speaker 4: that causes that.
Speaker 1: This is the podcasting in trouble again.
Speaker 3: I love you.
Speaker 1: I'm I am mat and Ryan as you. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I get so annoyed when I put on something great
Speaker 1: that I know Ryan will enjoy and he's not paying attention.
Speaker 1: He's on his phone, and I go, you need to
Speaker 1: watch this bit.
Speaker 4: Type and type B is that it?

Speaker 4: are any penises in this movie.
Speaker 1: No penises and Wicked.
Speaker 3: No penises and Wicked.
Speaker 1: No, sort of like outline, Jonathan Bailey was tight pans. Okay,
Speaker 1: I do need to tell you in case you don't
Speaker 1: know this, and you should know this. Wicked is a
Speaker 1: musical because two minutes into the film, my husband turned
Speaker 1: to me and said, do they sing like this the
Speaker 1: whole way through it? And I said, yes, they do,
Speaker 1: my love, because this is a musical and that's what
Speaker 1: they do in a musical.
Speaker 3: They're talking as well, though.
Speaker 1: Lots of talking, yeah, but also inherently musicals do have
Speaker 1: singing involved, so you do need to know they're going
Speaker 1: into it.
Speaker 4: I've got a Wicked adjacent story because obviously Wicked is
Speaker 4: very big on the internet at the moment when Rip
Speaker 4: the Queen died, the Queen of England very sad.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm so I'm so fascinated to know where the
Speaker 1: story is going.
Speaker 4: So when the Queen died bucking In Palace, so she
Speaker 4: died in the afternoon, backing in Palace, put out a
Speaker 4: creed to the west end of theater in the UK
Speaker 4: and said, it's very saying that the Queen has died. However,
Speaker 4: it is her request that you continue on as normal.
Speaker 4: The show must go on. And so all of these
Speaker 4: Broadway shows you know, are going up and they've got
Speaker 4: sort of like God, it's very sad people in the morning.
Speaker 4: Maybe I'll bring some light ingertabments, some light theater. There's
Speaker 4: this great tektok doing the rounds of the poor manager
Speaker 4: of the theater that has Wicked, saying I'd like to
Speaker 4: welcome you to the theater. It was it was Her
Speaker 4: Majesty's request that the show goes on. The show is
Speaker 4: going to be performed tonight as written and as performed,
Speaker 4: So please enjoy the show if you haven't seen the show,
Speaker 4: and this is going to clock for you in just
Speaker 4: a second.
Speaker 3: The opening sequence.
Speaker 4: Of Wicked the Musical is a huge number where where
Speaker 4: they are going, where they sing the song ding Dong
Speaker 4: the Witch is dead right.
Speaker 3: It starts with like she's dead.
Speaker 1: It truly does it? Truly does? I just imagine the
Speaker 1: audience in there being like, oh, just performing it, being
Speaker 1: like you almost have to, like you'd have to break
Speaker 1: the fourth wall after the song and be like no disrespect, no,
Speaker 1: just refect your majesty. We love you anyway how much.
Speaker 1: So they're just my little p s. A Wicked is amazing. Okay,

Speaker 3: was their home over.
Speaker 4: Fun.
Speaker 1: I really hope, I really hope they don't. They don't
Speaker 1: come for us for the music rights, because we've now
Speaker 1: sung like four different songs on this plant. Maybe you
Speaker 1: get away with it when you do it really quickly.
Speaker 4: Yeah a megamix, bring it on, Bring aute, good luck,
Speaker 4: Old iHeartRadio towers seriously good.
Speaker 3: They'd be like the what what is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a guy that.
Speaker 3: Don't get back to the old ones.
Speaker 1: It's so good, so let's get back to them. The
Speaker 1: story at hand though, Oh yes, So last week on
Speaker 1: the podcast, we had to talk about the fact that
Speaker 1: you had gotten your international flight times wrong.
Speaker 4: I sucked it up. You fucked it up. I said,
Speaker 4: excuse me, your I didn't.
Speaker 3: Fuck it up.
Speaker 1: Yes, you are very You were very effusive in your
Speaker 1: defense that you didn't fuck it up. And you said,
Speaker 1: I think I'm quoting here. You said about your partner
Speaker 1: car who had told me specifically that you had fucked
Speaker 1: it up. Listen with your tartingers's.
Speaker 2: Tarting at all, which went down like a cup of
Speaker 2: cold sack.
Speaker 1: Of course, he messaged me and he said, I have
Speaker 1: never felt such boiling rage as I have when I
Speaker 1: heard Brad say that phrase. Yeah, so he posted He
Speaker 1: posted on Instagram some receipts he has.
Speaker 4: So if we read the best leads, okay, here our
Speaker 4: story time. Who are we the blue one? I there
Speaker 4: we having on that? He said, Hang on a minute.
Speaker 4: Read the date of the message as well, The thirty
Speaker 4: September at nine.
Speaker 3: Thirtieth of September. Be get this in mind, Oh don't you.
Speaker 1: I don't know whether you're going to use this opportunity
Speaker 1: to anyhoy. No, this we can. We can run this
Speaker 1: like a court of law. So you're allowed to put
Speaker 1: a defense for it doesn't mean you're going to be
Speaker 1: found note but.
Speaker 4: To be fair, I'm the Crown prosecutor, so I am
Speaker 4: so I think that I was starting and you will
Speaker 4: hold your defense that he called so Carl says, morning babe,
Speaker 4: how are you today? My work dates down south of
Speaker 4: shifted from the four to the third of November and
Speaker 4: increased of seven weeks. It hates morning, get done? Is
Speaker 4: that clash with your travel question Mark?
Speaker 1: And then Brad.
Speaker 4: Says, morning babe, that's exciting. I'm back fourth of November,
Speaker 4: proud of you. It's going to be awesome down the are.
Speaker 1: And then he has added to the story Brad.
Speaker 4: Land and Wednesday, the sixth of November, and he's used
Speaker 4: the song Taylor Swift, Look what You made Me Do,
Speaker 4: which is really the ultimates match.
Speaker 3: It really is.
Speaker 1: So you did tell Carl that you were landing on Monday,
Speaker 1: the fourth of November.
Speaker 3: On the thirtieth of September.
Speaker 1: What did your flights change to?
Speaker 3: They No, because I.
Speaker 2: Read my new Zealant apt wush you know, which is
Speaker 2: quite handy, and read the fourth of November right, And
Speaker 2: I wasn't leaving until the whatever it was in October,
Speaker 2: two weeks after those messages. And then while I was
Speaker 2: in the States, I said, Babe, I've got this wrong.
Speaker 2: I leave on the fourth and land on the sixth.
Speaker 4: You realize that you were absolutely is issuing the biggest challenge.
Speaker 4: If you said to him that there's a change of notes,
Speaker 4: he is going to absolutely rip you back with those
Speaker 4: to seats because he'll have them.
Speaker 3: Well that's all the receipts.
Speaker 2: He's got to think, No, because I was I was
Speaker 2: verbal over the telephion.
Speaker 3: Oh of course in a quarter of low.
Speaker 4: But I will fought on.
Speaker 1: But the argument was never like. The argument was never
Speaker 1: that you didn't tell him that you'd fucked up. The
Speaker 1: argument was that you just fucked up in the first place.
Speaker 1: Like he never claimed that you never told him that
Speaker 1: you'd fucked up your dates.
Speaker 2: So I'm going to fall on my sword because there
Speaker 2: are receipts that on their September I had sucked up.
Speaker 4: Would you like to apologize to your darling in this
Speaker 4: public forum.
Speaker 2: Publicly on out the gate who the iHeartRadio Ivory Tower
Speaker 2: knows about. Wow, I sincerely apologize and I love you dearly,
Speaker 2: my love.
Speaker 3: It's so big of you, big man. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The other person, I'd like to apologize to them about gators. Ah,
Speaker 2: I won't name your name, but you did send quite
Speaker 2: a few messages. Admittedly you did say the next morning
Speaker 2: I was drunk. You will know who you are, and
Speaker 2: I think you're fantastic because when I read the messages,
Speaker 2: you brought me so much joy and energy, and I
Speaker 2: did reply to you saying I love it. We're all
Speaker 2: about the energy. So receipts are there. I've apologized, and Locke,
Speaker 2: we've talked about how many promises we make and what
Speaker 2: we've want to do on this podcast.
Speaker 3: We will get to your request, hopefully in the new year.
Speaker 4: I think my favorite part about it, and also we're
Speaker 4: not going to name this gator, but also he'll be
Speaker 4: listening right now and he will be like, oh fuck,
Speaker 4: because you know what it's like when you get a
Speaker 4: little bit drunk in the DMS. Here's a couple of
Speaker 4: my favorite lines, boys come on field days, even on
Speaker 4: your gay radar.
Speaker 1: It's a mystery to me. Different message.
Speaker 4: I'm a gain for episode one, most of the Chris's
Speaker 4: kiwi xent, which is the worst of the lot use
Speaker 4: and the inflection upwards It's coming for.
Speaker 1: You, oh my god.
Speaker 4: And then the other one the dirt you conditioned ways
Speaker 4: you never could Wags and then yes the next morning
Speaker 4: a future many one. Sorry boys, now I'm here.
Speaker 2: Hey, if I'm actually here for those messages, I thought
Speaker 2: it was brought me joy and laughter that when I
Speaker 2: read those.
Speaker 4: So wait, he was calling us out for not doing
Speaker 4: anything that we see the empty promises that we've made.
Speaker 1: But isn't this a cornerstone of our podcast. It's a
Speaker 1: character trait, it's a foundation. It's a foundation that we
Speaker 1: make these promises and we don't follow through with them.
Speaker 1: We got merch and it's only because somebody made the
Speaker 1: Can I just hit say here and now it is
Speaker 1: a fucking wonder we get a podcast out at all
Speaker 1: any week. So do not come for us in the
Speaker 1: DMS and drag us for not going to field days
Speaker 1: or presenting a WAG episode.
Speaker 4: We'll get there, mate, and good time, good things time.
Speaker 1: Should we do the wag episode.
Speaker 4: Really thinking we need to really do it and Christmas
Speaker 4: it's easy, this is get it done a couple of way.
Speaker 4: We won't get it done the side of Christmas, but anyway,
Speaker 4: watch the space and also to be fair, if you
Speaker 4: do to get drunk and then just drag us on
Speaker 4: Instagram and we when we love the free contents.
Speaker 3: So I love it. It's so good that brought me
Speaker 3: to I wasn't angry at all.
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, they're cool.
Speaker 1: I did think. I was thinking today, you know, like
Speaker 1: we've done this, we've been doing this podcast. We're coming
Speaker 1: up three years now, my wild right, three years I did.
Speaker 1: I thought about it today, Sorry, bab, I thought about
Speaker 1: it today. Should we be should we be soliciting for
Speaker 1: feedback because we you know.
Speaker 3: Oh we're too centsy for feedback.
Speaker 1: We just turn on these mics and we go for gold.
Speaker 2: Like when we tuned up this afternoon, someone else didn't
Speaker 2: have content in the podcast and we see that in
Speaker 2: the dock, but we said we got yeah, we got yeah,
Speaker 2: and you said many the best.
Speaker 3: Podcasts that we ever do.
Speaker 2: We talk shit and don't even touch the dock until
Speaker 2: at least twelve minutes into it.
Speaker 1: Well, we're twenty five minutes in and we're only touched
Speaker 1: one thing on the docks so far, and that is wicked.
Speaker 3: Look, I'll be honest, it feels like a good podcast
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 1: Feel like that's what I meant. It's my favorite ones
Speaker 1: are the ones where we don't even get to shore
Speaker 1: on the dock. Maybe it's the maybe it's the be
Speaker 1: But do you think is this a dangerous thing for
Speaker 1: us to do? Maybe like a to do a little
Speaker 1: performance review three years in and say to the gators,
Speaker 1: what do you think about our podcast? What do you like?
Speaker 1: What do you want from us?
Speaker 2: I think what we would like is to definitely give
Speaker 2: us all the stars on our We never asked that
Speaker 2: we get to ask and write a write a review
Speaker 2: on our you know, on the on the platforms iHeartRadio
Speaker 2: app and will really you find your podcast?
Speaker 4: So give us, give us some stars, give us some
Speaker 4: feedback reviews, but also slip into our DM.
Speaker 1: Slip into our dams and maybe we'll do a little
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll do a little I reckon.
Speaker 4: We we'll put a little story thing up. I'm getting
Speaker 4: good at this next ride it in the docks, I remember,
Speaker 4: but we could, we could ask for some performance reviews.
Speaker 4: I think so.
Speaker 1: Was his brackets be nice the gate. This is the
Speaker 1: thing about Gators. Though we love the Gators even when
Speaker 1: they're drunken and like and ringing us for not going
Speaker 1: to field days, that we still love them.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So and again I think I think that's great. That
Speaker 2: communication has been so good.
Speaker 1: So I feel like we can do it. And even
Speaker 1: if they're roasting us a little bit, I'm.
Speaker 4: Here for I'm here for it.
Speaker 2: I'm here for it, no spect roasting.
Speaker 1: Well, sweet for yourself. Okay, should we do it quick
Speaker 1: because we're twenty five minutes in? Do we need to
Speaker 1: do a quick little work around? And how are we
Speaker 1: or have we moved on from now?
Speaker 4: Okay because that's part of the show. Yeah, fair enough,
Speaker 4: but Gus changing up the format crazy?
Speaker 1: How are we good?
Speaker 3: I'm good.
Speaker 4: I'm going to piggyback on Brad's good News of the
Speaker 4: week because I also participated in it.
Speaker 3: So, Brad, what was the parlor of your week? The
Speaker 3: week cold Play got on the Bend week?
Speaker 1: It was I went to did you go Friday Night?
Speaker 1: So Goodnesday? Friday?
Speaker 4: Were you fridayy?
Speaker 1: Snurday got them all covered, got the bases covered, wedness,
Speaker 1: isn't it. We went we we jumped on the bandwagon
Speaker 1: late in the piece, like we got offered tickets late
Speaker 1: in the piece. And then Friday came around, and remember
Speaker 1: Friday was terrible weather, very and Ryan messaged me in
Speaker 1: the afternoon and went, because we were uncovered, and he went,
Speaker 1: should we just sell the tickets? I don't know, I
Speaker 1: don't want to go on the rain And I went, no,
Speaker 1: I think we should go. It's meant to clear. Let's
Speaker 1: hit your bits and given you with the man, let
Speaker 1: your finger and put it in the air and ah
Speaker 1: and far out. I'm so glad we stuck with it.
Speaker 1: It was incredible.
Speaker 4: I would probably say this is the summary of the
Speaker 4: conversations that I've had over the last over the last
Speaker 4: week about it. If you isolate the music of Coldplay
Speaker 4: and you put it within like a top forty radio
Speaker 4: format or when you're on hold of the bank or
Speaker 4: you're in an elevator, like track by track, there are
Speaker 4: some bangers, but there are also some very sad kind
Speaker 4: of slow songs.
Speaker 1: And sometimes do I say it like vanola, like vanilla music,
Speaker 1: white people.
Speaker 4: Music absolutely not offensive when you put it into the
Speaker 4: confines of a stadium experience with balloons, light up wristbands, fireworks.
Speaker 1: It was confetti. It was probably the best show I've
Speaker 1: ever been.
Speaker 4: To from a show perspective thought likewise, I can't speak
Speaker 4: highly enough.
Speaker 1: We were there the night that the guy got up
Speaker 1: on stage because he said he had been woken up
Speaker 1: from a coma because of Coldplay's music, and that was amazing.
Speaker 2: I just think the show, the in the audience inclusion interaction. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the music was great, but just I think the vibe
Speaker 2: on just peace and kindness and how they sold that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and the music was beautiful.
Speaker 1: Ryan said. He read an article with Chris Martin who said,
Speaker 1: we perform every show like we never take it for granted,
Speaker 1: and we perform every show reminding ourselves before we go
Speaker 1: out that this.
Speaker 4: Technical issues in the studio, the cheese is falling.
Speaker 1: Oh, we're going to be such a beautiful sets, Okay,
Speaker 1: we he said. Chris Martin said, we perform every show
Speaker 1: and we remind ourselves before we go out again.
Speaker 2: Jesus I had the Ivory Tower is going to be
Speaker 2: you cannot play that that that this is going to
Speaker 2: be a someone's first ever show that they've been to,
Speaker 2: but b someone's.
Speaker 1: Last ever show that they will go through. And so
Speaker 1: they perform every concert like that, and you could.
Speaker 4: Tell you could feel the infantas.
Speaker 1: It was very authentic, and I go on, play your
Speaker 1: bloody clip. I'm sorry, I play your clip?
Speaker 4: Well it makes sense in context? Okay, so no, no
Speaker 4: you can't. This wasn't in the dock. So coldplay do
Speaker 4: as part of the show where he goes around and
Speaker 4: he puts the camera on people and he sings a
Speaker 4: little ditty about them and then kind of imprompt you ditty.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And on one of the nights, the Detective going viral
Speaker 4: because he goes out and the songs that were like
Speaker 4: he made beautiful brother, well, he made beautiful sister. Well
Speaker 4: he picks a wonderful young person who happens to be
Speaker 4: non binary. And that was on said day at the
Speaker 4: concert I was at, do you want to hear how
Speaker 4: he played?
Speaker 3: So he's putting up a video, So.
Speaker 6: Okay, okay, you beautiful person. That's all I wanted to say,
Speaker 6: thanks for coming to our show.
Speaker 1: Telling me what I should already know.
Speaker 6: I'm represented l g B t q I A.
Speaker 1: They held up a little signing phone saying I'm non binary.
Speaker 4: And he handed it so well, I was alive and
Speaker 4: we used to be bringing this to the doc and
Speaker 4: it was. It was a beautiful moment. It felt a little.
Speaker 2: Pre premeditated, yeah, but it was still a beautiful moment.
Speaker 2: And how he wrapped it up and how he was
Speaker 2: represented with the rainbow flag and the streamers and yeah,
Speaker 2: it was just but back to your point around it
Speaker 2: was someone's first or someone's last because the age range
Speaker 2: of the audience. There were you know, six year olds
Speaker 2: or seven year olds on parents' shoulder, you know.
Speaker 1: People with gray here, our older generation.
Speaker 2: It was just really lovely to be was it was
Speaker 2: filled my cap I was, I had a traffic light,
Speaker 2: very full.
Speaker 4: And so I'm good.
Speaker 3: After that, it's me.
Speaker 1: We're all good. We're all good or really good.
Speaker 4: Though, before we wrap it up, there is one thing
Speaker 4: that's in the dark that I would really like to
Speaker 4: cover because we talked about this in great detail last week.
Speaker 4: Matthew McClain, can you please go to agenda item number
Speaker 4: one on the document.
Speaker 1: So I told you boys that last weekend I went
Speaker 1: to the Medillos, the gay Tennis social tennis group.
Speaker 4: Yes, just seeing someone out the window with a head on.
Speaker 4: It's a nail. Sorry, cancel them. Sorry, I just caught
Speaker 4: the corner of someone's here.
Speaker 3: Sorry. I think I did a report on a story.
Speaker 1: You got that one wrong.
Speaker 3: Well, I just say it was so wrong.
Speaker 4: No offense to you, don't ye, you're young man, not
Speaker 4: worthy the podcast, stop though. Sorry Anyway, I went to
Speaker 4: the Amadillos last week and played tennis and I talked
Speaker 4: to you boys about my feelings about it, and it
Speaker 4: was very It was a very yeah, it was an
Speaker 4: interesting experience. I felt very like I loved I loved
Speaker 4: a lot of it, a lot.
Speaker 1: Of it, but I also really really did not like
Speaker 1: a lot of it as well.
Speaker 4: It made you feel like you had gone back in
Speaker 4: time and you were back in high school sports and
Speaker 4: not being good at that and.
Speaker 1: Feeling humiliate, like very embarrassed, and very like. It was
Speaker 1: almost an outer body experience where I remember like being
Speaker 1: on the court and I just had this overwhelming feeling
Speaker 1: of I don't want to be here, I don't want
Speaker 1: to do this, I hate this, this is not for me.
Speaker 1: And then I said to you boys that I After that,
Speaker 1: I thought to myself, I need to go back because
Speaker 1: I need to. I need to do that for myself
Speaker 1: and for younger me. I need to give it another go.
Speaker 1: So I went back. I went back on the weekend.
Speaker 4: And I'm very very proud of you for this and
Speaker 4: that because it is very easy when something happens to
Speaker 4: us that we don't feel like we're absolutely winning, and
Speaker 4: especially at our age where time as sure.
Speaker 3: But that's not what I mean.
Speaker 4: Freshious and you know, if you're not into something about
Speaker 4: something doesn't work, get off the pot.
Speaker 1: And I'm very proud of you for getting another thank you,
Speaker 1: And I went back. And I don't want it to
Speaker 1: I don't want to sound like, you know, we talk
Speaker 1: about how I'm very competitive and I don't like to
Speaker 1: lose famously. I did win a I was part of
Speaker 1: a few winning matches on this weekend that I just
Speaker 1: went to. And I don't want it to sound like
Speaker 1: the experience was only good because I like won a
Speaker 1: game or something. But there was just something very powerful
Speaker 1: about like I was able to stand there and go.
Speaker 1: I went back, even though there were lots of things
Speaker 1: about it that I didn't enjoy last weekend in terms
Speaker 1: of how it made me feel. So to go back
Speaker 1: and then to have a couple of wins, and I
Speaker 1: had lots of losses as well, and I played. There
Speaker 1: was some games where I played terribly, but also some
Speaker 1: games where I felt like I had almost like improved
Speaker 1: even within a week.
Speaker 6: Yea.
Speaker 1: And so I just had this very powerful moment where
Speaker 1: I was still in the court and I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm so so pleased I came back. H and I
Speaker 1: had such a great day out. I had so much fun,
Speaker 1: and even with the losses, I was like, no, this
Speaker 1: is good, and this is so much fun to be
Speaker 1: able to come and be part of something like this
Speaker 1: because I haven't felt part of like sporting athletic thing
Speaker 1: for a very long time effect almost never really because
Speaker 1: I was never felt a part of that at high school,
Speaker 1: and so to be part of that was just amazing.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I was so pleased I went back.
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, awesome, go the Armadillos.
Speaker 1: That great. It's getting busy though.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was going to come on Sunday, but it had
Speaker 2: had to finish up the yard work and go.
Speaker 3: To the you do a dump run a dumb run?
Speaker 1: Do you want to come though?
Speaker 4: I do?
Speaker 1: Yeah, come with me?
Speaker 3: Oh, I was thinking I wouldn't mind coming. I wouldn't
Speaker 3: mind coming to jump.
Speaker 1: Come with me, though, Yes, come along Sunday. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't go this. I can't go this Sunday, but come.
Speaker 4: I do, and I want to. I want to join.
Speaker 1: I'm in their group chat now so oh nice, great,
Speaker 1: let me get there.
Speaker 4: We'll get there, criss No, no, no, definitely for me
Speaker 4: responsibilities in an all time high. Totally need the Lord's
Speaker 4: day to.
Speaker 3: Get on. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Shit, yeah, I've covered watching the outside as long as
Speaker 1: long as well, like it's a fourth three art like,
Speaker 1: I like.
Speaker 3: It as a concept.
Speaker 4: But I as I older, I'm aware of my limitations
Speaker 4: of what I am good for you, what I what
Speaker 4: I can't accept, And.
Speaker 1: It's easier to say used to things, and you sometimes
Speaker 1: got to take stock and go actually no, yeah, not
Speaker 1: right now, not right now. Maybe one.
Speaker 4: Some of them just need a day at home and
Speaker 4: that's my and that is Sunday. Can you talk to
Speaker 4: me about your Bunnings trip?
Speaker 2: Also with the Bunnings after the dump really Sunday, Yeah,
Speaker 2: because I am on on the said day. I broke
Speaker 2: a set of secateurs, some garden snips.
Speaker 1: This is really the content we're here for.
Speaker 2: Off because I couldn't finish all I needed to do.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, So anyway, I loaded the track
Speaker 2: up with what I needed to went to Bunnings and
Speaker 2: needed a half brush and shovel.
Speaker 3: Pir of sic of tours found some rubbish bags.
Speaker 4: I've got those as well.
Speaker 3: You know, is a sausage.
Speaker 4: No, I didn't, so I didn't have any cash on me.
Speaker 4: They didn't get us I do the I didn't know anyway, friends.
Speaker 2: Is so I just want to pose this to you guys,
Speaker 2: and the and the gators, and I think we've talked
Speaker 2: about this before, but there was a couple of other homosexuals,
Speaker 2: and I'm pretty sure there are a couple, but when
Speaker 2: you're in public and you don't you know that because
Speaker 2: you've seen them on socials or you've seen them all yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's that kind of like and you know, I
Speaker 2: was really like down by the pergola section, by the
Speaker 2: outdoor furniture, you know, absolutely close to the bathroom and
Speaker 2: the cafe and enough of a sauce, you know.
Speaker 3: You know, Sidney's this lovely couple.
Speaker 2: And I said, oh hi, and then kind of got
Speaker 2: the eyebrows smile from both of.
Speaker 1: Them because what happens in that scenario.
Speaker 3: So I reckon this is my theory on it.
Speaker 4: If you're in a scenario like that, both of them
Speaker 4: immediately going through the head, is the other one fact here?
Speaker 2: Yes, So the answer to that question for those so
Speaker 2: it's absolutely not absolutely no, it didn't happen.
Speaker 1: But that'd be the conversation they're having in the car
Speaker 1: on the right.
Speaker 3: I was just being nice and like, how are.
Speaker 1: You totally you know, I'm very much a gay thing.
Speaker 1: It's very much a gay thing, and I have found
Speaker 1: that there are some gays that are very receptive to
Speaker 1: that and will acknowledge the fact that it's a small
Speaker 1: town with a small community and everyone knows everyone. And
Speaker 1: then some will just not give you the time of day.
Speaker 1: There are some real mean gaze out there.
Speaker 3: Mean case.
Speaker 4: I like that. Actually, I hope these guys that the
Speaker 4: threat buddings aren't gators or our gators and can come
Speaker 4: forward and say, yeah, I'm sorry they didn't give you that.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that these guys are men gays, but
Speaker 1: there are men gayser.
Speaker 3: And I'm not offended by that.
Speaker 2: It's just that kind of like, you know, you want
Speaker 2: to say you know, I say hello to just reading
Speaker 2: people sometimes.
Speaker 3: Hey how are you?
Speaker 4: You know? Yeah, but you know, just that was my experience,
Speaker 4: and well, I don't read too Bread was in a hat,
Speaker 4: a T shirt, like shorts, you know, like the cloth shorts,
Speaker 4: you know what do they you know, like, you know,
Speaker 4: cloth shorts and red bands. So I looked pretty rough.
Speaker 1: Also, you're a bit too straight acting, and they were
Speaker 1: like also, there's also that thing though, there are definitely
Speaker 1: like I've definitely seen gay guys out where I'm like,
Speaker 1: do I have we met before or do I just
Speaker 1: know you from like social media or whatever? And there
Speaker 1: is that moment where you go, how how enthusiastic am
Speaker 1: I going to be about seeing this person because realistically
Speaker 1: they are more or less a stranger or maybe I
Speaker 1: have met them, and you kind of have to make
Speaker 1: that snap decision of am I just going to treat
Speaker 1: you like a regular stranger or am I going to
Speaker 1: acknowledge that actually I.
Speaker 3: Do know you? Very true?
Speaker 4: But is it similar similar to stopping at a pedestrian
Speaker 4: if you're pedestrian and give a wave to say thanks
Speaker 4: to the that's a total stranger, Yeah, isn't it? So
Speaker 4: you know, like you know, a wave or a maybe
Speaker 4: we need to have like a special wave and maybe
Speaker 4: you need to like, as you see someone coming, you
Speaker 4: need to like.
Speaker 3: Just drop a rest. And they were like, Hi, I
Speaker 3: think that's I think.
Speaker 1: Don't even let the actions of others diminished.
Speaker 4: I like my Dallas I was my life wasn't demosed
Speaker 4: at all, but it was, you know, just just it's
Speaker 4: definitely a gay thing, isn't it. If you're a gay
Speaker 4: couple and you see us out at Bunning's, smile, smile.
Speaker 1: Say high, say and Cryst will see you in the
Speaker 1: bathroom and not for Dodgy, not for Dodgy, not for Dodgy,
Speaker 1: just because that's that's because just because that's just because
Speaker 1: you you spend a lot of time at Bunning.
