00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 3: It's something I never thought I would actually do a

7
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 3: book because my job is generally standing up, talking rubbish

8
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 3: and walking away, whereas the book involves a lot of writing,

9
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 3: rewriting forever exactly. That's what stress me out because it's

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 3: like I wanted to get everything right and then there's

11
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 3: a point where you've just got to get it out there,

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 3: and then you're editing and they're like, send me a

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 3: word document and it's okay.

14
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,360

Speaker 2: your story.

18
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: But then obviously with you know what you've been going

19
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: through the last few years, it's all so about hope

20
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: and motivation and people can take a lot for their

21
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,119
Speaker 1: lives out of what you've gone through.

22
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: That's the whole thing with this book. It's got a

23
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 3: lot of laughs in it, It's got my sort of

24
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 3: trajectory through comedy, and then it moves into what I've

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 3: been dealing with sort of an incurable cancer diagnosis over

26
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 3: the last four years. A lot of tips in there

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: how you just can deal with anxiety and depression and

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 3: things like that.

29
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: So I'm super proud of it.

30
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 3: Plus it's got just the weird life I've lived and

31
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 3: the weird how I've ended up doing gigs. I's got

32
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 3: a great story in there about my weirdest gig where

33
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 3: I show up and look at the lineup. Savage the

34
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 3: rapper is myself and buzz Aldron.

35
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: There was the lineup. It's go Grand Convention Center.

36
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: Now, your average late sixties space nerve is not a

37
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: massive fan of New Zealan Savage and I right, we've

38
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: got a bit of crossover audience. And so so buzz

39
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: Aldron goes up and yeah, so I go up and

40
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 3: I just welcome people. Then buzz Aldron is the warm

41
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 3: up peck. He comes out and he's always good value,

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 3: buzz Aldron because he Neil Armstrong got on the moon right,

43
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 3: he had the one great step for man, one giant

44
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 3: step for mankind.

45
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 4: Buzz Aldron, it was the last person out of the spaceship.

46
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,240

Speaker 5: He should have locked us, locked us.

50
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: He should have been the line that we all remember if.

51

54
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 4: Remember who said they didn't land on the moon.

55

Speaker 3: Come the Savage. There's no one else just with.

64
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 2: I reckon. People have been at a long.

65
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 3: Lunch in a sort of flashed up restaurant. You're on

66
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: your third bottle of peanut grey, maybe seven. Maybe you

67
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 3: go buzz Aldron the seven. These fun stories in there.

68
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: It's a very conversational read. Jackie Brown, who's just we

69
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: were talking off here, Megan.

70
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it and it was great that you

71
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: guys are still friends because you talk at the book

72
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: that you know. She was hosting a show Pop Goes

73
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: to the Weasel, and one of the gags was to

74
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: tip mayonnaise all over you at the end. You had

75
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: no idea about it, like drop from the roof and

76
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: you're allergic to eggs.

77
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you glossed over quite a crucial point in

78
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 3: that story. I was meant to just be wrestling a

79
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 3: porn star and a paddling pol of mayonnaise. The mayonnaise

80
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 3: had nothing to do with it. It's just the peddling pool,

81
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 3: which was the It was the diameter of the ring.

82
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: Jeez, you've done some high concept stuff over there.

83
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: Pawn stars and they were like this Pop Goes the

84
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 3: Weasel music game show. If you lose this round, you

85
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 3: have to wrestle a porn star in a paeddling pool.

86
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: So I'm standing in a peddling pool just saying that,

87
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 3: how can I do this?

88
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 4: It's awkward?

89
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: We do you grab them without it getting awkward?

90
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 3: So then we both step into the peddling pool twenty

91
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: leaders and mayonnaise falls out of the lighting grid and

92
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 3: I'm just panicking. I'm allergic to egg I get anaphylactic shot.

93
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 2: All right, start swelling a bit. Oh, you actually reacted.

94
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: I'm just screaming. I'm allergically. You gotta tell someone when

95
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 2: you drop mayonnaise. Strangely, this felt like just another day.

96
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 3: I dividently had a few more issues with it, and

97
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 3: then I know you've got to tell someone, because I'm like,

98
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 3: I could just act it.

99
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: And even if you.

100
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: Know someone's going to drop twenty leaders and mayonnaise, it's

101
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 3: still surprising. And so then once the furoria died down,

102
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 3: I had been checked up, I hadn't swallowed in it.

103
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: It was sort of okay. I just said a bit

104
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: of swelling.

105
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 2: On my face.

106
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 3: Then we suddenly realized they went, oh, this is a

107
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: TV studio. Those lights are really hot. And it was

108
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: the three News studio. Oh, the pilots so Sam Hays

109
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 3: and McRoberts. The whole studio stung mayonnaise for.

110
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 2: Like three weeks. You boys, remember the C four days.

111
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: Oh wold, there was no apartment, there was nothing.

112
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 3: You've got an idea, you have to.

113
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,239
Speaker 2: Go to air, so we've got to do something.

114
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and sometimes you haven't fully thought through the repercussions

115
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 3: of how my play out Honestly, I believe that's.

116
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 5: How all of our TV careers started has just out

117
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 5: of pure desperation for them to fill it on.

118
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: We were pretty much delivering this tap as it was

119
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 3: going into No one was watching any of this before

120
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 3: it went to air.

121
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 5: Got Die in with Us, Life of Died the book

122
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 5: out now, you must have.

123
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 2: Fd it quite therapeutic.

124
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, going through this whole writing process I magic.

125
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 3: So ironically it was therapeutic, but it was also I

126
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 3: was doing chemotherapy at the time of writing it, and

127
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,559
Speaker 3: at the publication of the book, I'd done twenty rounds

128
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 3: of chema.

129
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 4: I've done twenty six now.

130
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 3: It was also sort of therapeutic yet traumatic in a

131
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 3: way because I was then going through this intense six surgeries.

132
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: It's had six major surgeries and all this chemo and radiation,

133
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 3: so I sort of going through that and piecing it together.

134
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 3: But then it was actually sort of a testament to

135
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 3: how much a human can go through. And also, I'm

136
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 3: a very positive person, and my sort of motto through

137
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 3: this and my motto for life, is that optimism won't

138
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 3: cure me, but pessimism will kill me. You got to

139
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: keep I've got to just get out there and live life.

140
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: And it's about just remembering you've got to love.

141
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: You've got to love yourself, you've got to love your friends,

142
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 3: and you've got to just live today.

143
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 4: I'm living with cancer and not enough.

144
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 3: People people who aren't touched with something that maybe makes

145
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: them aware on the clock, like actually have a finite time,

146
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 3: which we all do. A lot of people aren't living

147
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 3: and I'm like, I can pack so much life.

148
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: In not today. I'm not doing treatment, talking with mates

149
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: at moment.

150
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 3: And that's the thing is, like you're on Instagram, you

151
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: see a lot of people living in the moment with

152
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 3: Lululemon leggings promoting a portable glender.

153
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 2: You know, I'm just living in the moment.

154
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 3: But it's actually so hard to do that whole idea

155
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 3: of mindfulness being present is really hard to do. So

156
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: now I'm far more conscious of Okay, I'm going out

157
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 3: to play mini girlf with my daughter.

158
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: Just put the phone in the cat.

159
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: You got a putter in your in your in your

160
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: front yard or backyard as well. Yeah, and that sort

161
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: of gives you a moment to stop and reflect as well.

162
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm sort of when I was younger, I

163
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: was over in Japan and I my dad was touring

164
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 3: a theater show and one of the actors was a

165
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 3: Buddhist and she took me to a monastery and I

166
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,479
Speaker 3: learned fools in Buddhism and Zazen meditation.

167
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: Then I got on the puss.

168
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 6: For a bit, and then strangely enough, just as I said,

169
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 6: I sort of got sober just before.

170
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 3: My diagnosis, and then when I had my diagnosis, I

171
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 3: could fall back on this foundation of meditation I had

172
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 3: in that and that's been so amazing for keeping my

173
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 3: head straight.

174
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,479
Speaker 2: Because the thing is, if I'm worrying about my next.

175
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 3: Chemo, which I'd probably have to do some radiation and

176
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: chemo in the near future, if I'm worrying about that

177
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 3: now it's ruining today, I'll.

178
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 2: Have plenty of time to freak out about it when I'm.

179
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 4: Driving there, you know, like, don't worry twice.

180
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 5: What a great way to approach it because you you

181
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 5: obviously went through it, but just personally for I think

182
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 5: it was one to two years when you before you

183
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 5: were went public with it. So a lot of people

184
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 5: go through cancer, but then having to go through it

185
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,479
Speaker 5: on such a public platform, I imagine a huge outpouring

186
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 5: of support.

187
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 2: How do you handle that? It helped being public.

188
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 3: I was worried about how it was going to happen

189
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 3: because I've been private and people were just coming up

190
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 3: to me the street or after gigs, coming up real

191
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 3: hard out.

192
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

193
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 3: But and then I was had all the sadness and

194
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 3: trauma was going on.

195
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 2: I was just bottling it up.

196
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 3: And now people just come up with so much empathy

197
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 3: and so granted a lot of people get.

198
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 4: The wrong end of the stick sometimes.

199
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 3: I've done this interview with Jackie Brown where I came

200
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 3: out publicly.

201
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 4: And went out.

202
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 3: Was it an hour on YouTube? It was a little

203
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 3: segment on the project. The next day, this guy comes

204
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: up to in my KFA went mate. The interview just

205
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 3: really touched me.

206
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm so sorry to hear about your aide.

207
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 3: When I watched the whole thing, you really got the

208
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 3: wrong end of the stick.

209
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 4: Thank you.

210
00:10:54,320 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 3: The thing was he was honestly kind and got me thinking,

211
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 3: what else in your life are you just kidding? Urenssly wrong.

212
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: About the bog as before. It's great for you what

213
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: you can do, yeah, supporting people, you know, things like

214
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: you I thought was really good and you're like just

215
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: do something. Don't ask them questions. You go through something,

216
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: don't bring them around a me or take their kids

217
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: out or things like that without asking them giving them

218
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: another question.

219
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: Definitely make sure you know the kids. That's the thing

220
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 3: that is because when people are going through something massive,

221
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 3: especially on the health front, so much of it is

222
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 3: decision fatigue. But if you just go, look, I just

223
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 3: put fifty bucks, here's a fifty buck or you know,

224
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 3: he's for me. I was given some amazing like linen

225
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 3: sort of sleep pants, and they have been they went

226
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 3: through all my hospital trips for me. They're so comfortable.

227
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: It's that thing of I wouldn't have thought to get

228
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 3: them for myself. And it was just a little bright spark.

229
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 3: And we've got mates who are very close with my kids,

230
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 3: and that thing of take you out to the Blues

231
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 3: game or something like that, and it's just then the

232
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 3: kids are having a great time, you know, because even

233
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 3: though we've been very honest with our children, there's still

234
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: you know, they can feel attention or the worry yes

235
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 3: the house, so no, just get just jump in. And

236
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 3: also you can't do anything wrong. It's a bit like

237
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 3: when you're trying to speak a language you can't speak.

238
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 3: If you're making the effort. Honestly, people appreciate that. It

239
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 3: doesn't matter if you make mistakes. And if someone out

240
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 3: there is dealing with something bigger and you just when

241
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 3: you're having a coffee of them, hey do you want

242
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 3: to chat about it or not? And you know, just

243
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 3: go sometimes just sick of talking about it.

244
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: Let's just because you wonder that. And I've got up

245
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: with you and we did the warriores. You know, do

246
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: you bring it up or do you just go, hey,

247
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: we're here for the warriors. You probably don't want to

248
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: talk about it. That's still about the Warriors. We watched

249
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 1: twenty to thirty hours a week of league.

250
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 2: I read the box quite.

251
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 3: And I would time at odd time my surgeries with

252
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 3: the league round. So like I'd always get a surgery

253
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 3: on a Thursday, and it would usually I come to

254
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 3: about nine pm and then I'm watching on my iPad.

255
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 3: I came out of my liver surgery and because I

256
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 3: don't tolerate opioids very well, they give me Kiddymine instead,

257
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: so they gave me Kiddine which is quite full, and

258
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 3: I'm watching and I'm watching my iPad with the and

259
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 3: the Warriors are playing in three D, and I was like.

260
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 2: To the nurse, check this out. This game is amz.

261
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: So I did have the.

262
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 3: Joy of watching probably the most amazing game and rugby

263
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: in my life. And then because there's like eight games

264
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 3: in a weekend, then I'd be in hospital and I

265
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 3: would have something.

266
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 2: To look forward to.

267
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 3: Although when I'd had a lung surgery and they're really

268
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: monitoring your vitals, they wouldn't allow me to work the

269
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 3: Warriors because they said I was in the it's like

270
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 3: lung and heart area and they said, oh, it's just

271
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 3: people have had heart hard issues in they put the

272
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 3: Warriors on and that's they're sitting there, sitting in the

273
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: nurses bay and everyone's heart monitors.

274
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 2: Oh, dying with wonderful human being.

275
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 5: Now the life of diets and must read really really

276
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 5: good book and all good bookstores. Now we appreciate your time, mate.

277
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 2: Oh it's lovely to be in here. Awesome to see

278
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 2: it
