That's about 2500. 0:00:19.230 --> 0:00:23.790 Shows and roughly 26,000 talk breaks. Today we pick one 0:00:23.790 --> 0:00:26.189 one talk break only and try to remember what happened 0:00:26.190 --> 0:00:28.110 based on what was written down on the run sheet 0:00:28.110 --> 0:00:28.910 from that day. 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.260 As always, we've got podcast. Mike was here for any 0:00:31.260 --> 0:00:32.120 technical stuff. 0:00:32.130 --> 0:00:35.400 Hello, Mike, what date was randomly chosen today? 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.760 No date. Special episode. Oh. 0:00:47.450 --> 0:00:51.410 This is Hamish and Andy's remembering project. 0:00:53.930 --> 0:00:57.020 Haim. No. Date. Special. Special episode. 0:00:57.140 --> 0:01:00.650 Special episode of The Remembering today. Because I found as 0:01:00.650 --> 0:01:04.700 I was cleaning out my study at home, our old cassettes. 0:01:04.790 --> 0:01:05.649 No no no. 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:10.220 From sin FM, the radio student youth network. The first 0:01:10.220 --> 0:01:14.569 time we're ever on radio together. Um, technically, I mean, 0:01:14.569 --> 0:01:16.430 the whole the way this came about was I was 0:01:16.430 --> 0:01:18.470 working at the Village Bell Hotel in Saint Kilda, the 0:01:18.470 --> 0:01:19.040 pub you. 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:19.430 Were. 0:01:19.430 --> 0:01:21.860 And we were trying to work out how we could 0:01:21.860 --> 0:01:24.060 possibly get on the radio and see. 0:01:24.230 --> 0:01:28.520 In between some. I remember the beer being quite well priced. 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:29.510 They're very well. 0:01:29.510 --> 0:01:30.370 Priced for friends. 0:01:30.380 --> 0:01:36.170 I remember enjoying coming to visit you and and going, oh, 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:39.009 for such a cheap beer. This actually tastes pretty good. 0:01:39.020 --> 0:01:41.209 Yeah. Tastes exactly the same. Actually. 0:01:41.450 --> 0:01:43.759 Tastes like a Carlton Draught. Yeah. How does he get it? 0:01:44.060 --> 0:01:48.500 How does he get to taste the same taste? Nothing. Because. 0:01:48.500 --> 0:01:50.450 Nothing. How does the publican get it across the bar 0:01:50.450 --> 0:01:52.910 for no money and still make a profit? But I 0:01:52.910 --> 0:01:53.660 guess he did. 0:01:53.660 --> 0:01:56.120 Yeah, well, I viewed you, and maybe I was ahead 0:01:56.120 --> 0:02:00.530 of time. I viewed you as an influencer. Yes. I 0:02:00.530 --> 0:02:04.070 thought you being in the bar would definitely attract more people. 0:02:04.070 --> 0:02:05.600 In in the word would spread. 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:06.500 We would spread this. 0:02:06.500 --> 0:02:10.070 Fizzy amber fluid. We see this cool young man drinking. Yes. 0:02:10.070 --> 0:02:11.900 I'll try a cup of that. 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:12.790 It's. 0:02:12.889 --> 0:02:15.350 So what does he pay for it? He drinks them 0:02:15.350 --> 0:02:18.680 for free. But for you, sir, it's 380. I'm willing 0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:19.609 to part with that. 0:02:20.510 --> 0:02:22.040 Weirdly. Two bucks. 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:22.959 $2 pots, were they? 0:02:23.090 --> 0:02:25.880 Well, we had $2. We had dollar pots for a special. 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.870 But when I was serving them at price was $2.30 0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.680 for a pot of beer when I was serving them 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:31.520 back in those days. 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:33.500 Jeez, I don't know how many shillings that is, but 0:02:33.500 --> 0:02:35.270 that was that was the day as well. 0:02:35.570 --> 0:02:37.910 Those were the days. So we weren't ripping off the 0:02:37.910 --> 0:02:38.959 owner that amount. 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:41.930 But it was nice of the owner without even having 0:02:41.930 --> 0:02:44.180 to say it in as many words, to give you 0:02:44.180 --> 0:02:46.520 the authority to chop and choose who you saw as 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:47.300 an influencer. 0:02:47.330 --> 0:02:49.760 Very cool of him to never reference. I didn't have 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.140 to reference it back to him, and it was this. 0:02:51.139 --> 0:02:53.570 Cool, unspoken deal that as soon as you walked in, 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:55.880 what was his name follow? Yeah. As soon as he 0:02:55.889 --> 0:02:58.610 walked in, you could see Ike Barlow is the kind 0:02:58.610 --> 0:03:00.770 of guy that doesn't even need to say if you 0:03:00.770 --> 0:03:03.380 made some free beers, because that's great for business, and 0:03:03.380 --> 0:03:05.600 you're the kind of employee that doesn't even need to 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.570 acknowledge it hasn't been said. You're just. And I think 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:10.100 all the time that saved and it. 0:03:10.100 --> 0:03:14.300 Was good of you out of respect to Barlow to 0:03:14.300 --> 0:03:16.669 when he walked in the room. Pay for a drink. 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:24.110 Yeah, yeah. As a sort of a nostalgic joke to 0:03:24.110 --> 0:03:26.820 go look at. And he got the joke. He got 0:03:26.820 --> 0:03:27.980 the big of a joke. 0:03:32.550 --> 0:03:34.000 Yeah, that was good. 0:03:34.010 --> 0:03:36.470 It was a straight just three people on the same page. 0:03:36.710 --> 0:03:38.150 Nothing needs to be said. 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:41.600 So it was right. 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.760 We would we would set it the village bell and 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.250 plot and plot. Well, basically just be like, well, we 0:03:46.250 --> 0:03:48.170 want to do this is remembered. So we're talking what 0:03:48.170 --> 0:03:49.760 are we talking in 2002. 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:50.570 2002. 0:03:50.660 --> 0:03:55.820 2002. So it's like the internet obviously exists, but you know, 0:03:55.820 --> 0:03:58.970 this is Hotmail was big news back then. Obviously no 0:03:58.970 --> 0:04:01.640 social media, no Facebook, no no anything. So a guy 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:01.970 that worked. 0:04:01.970 --> 0:04:04.870 There had said, hey, you should check out the sin 0:04:05.330 --> 0:04:06.130 FM student. 0:04:06.500 --> 0:04:07.400 Community radio. 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:09.890 And I was like, that'd be fun, fun. And you said, well, 0:04:09.890 --> 0:04:11.300 I've got to make good rye that we used to 0:04:11.300 --> 0:04:14.869 muck around doing, doing some fun comedy. Funny. So I 0:04:14.870 --> 0:04:16.789 reckon we should involve him. And I said, this is weird. 0:04:16.790 --> 0:04:19.310 I said, well, I've got to make quid, whipper. Yeah. 0:04:19.310 --> 0:04:19.729 We're out. 0:04:19.730 --> 0:04:22.430 Wow, that maybe we should get him involved. And this 0:04:22.430 --> 0:04:25.849 one cassette tape was part of this show. Whip was 0:04:25.850 --> 0:04:29.599 on the entire show. It was you, me, Ryan and Whipper. 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.450 And now I don't recall whipper b, I remember him 0:04:32.450 --> 0:04:34.729 being a guest, maybe at times, but he's been part 0:04:34.730 --> 0:04:35.750 of this entire show. 0:04:35.779 --> 0:04:40.940 I remember vaguely the whipper being somewhat around and involved. 0:04:40.940 --> 0:04:43.100 I thought he came in twice. Maybe it was just twice. 0:04:43.100 --> 0:04:45.440 But maybe it was just because. Also, we had no 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:47.089 idea what we were doing was just like, hey, anyone 0:04:47.089 --> 0:04:49.279 jump on? Like, let's just try and get flying hours. 0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:51.979 Yes, we should point a whipper whipper now. 0:04:52.790 --> 0:04:57.380 Sydney breakfast icons on radio and been there for many years. Um, 0:04:57.500 --> 0:05:00.620 whipper celebrity Apprentice it's in whipper one season. I think 0:05:00.620 --> 0:05:02.690 of 20 to 1. Possibly did two. I don't know 0:05:02.690 --> 0:05:07.729 if it was it. Two does. Yeah, possibly so. Certainly 0:05:07.730 --> 0:05:11.539 no stranger to fame and fortune. But do you know 0:05:11.540 --> 0:05:14.570 what else was around at the time in Melbourne and 0:05:14.570 --> 0:05:17.779 this would this appeared in other radio markets around the 0:05:17.779 --> 0:05:22.159 country was a popular format on triple M was the cage. Yes. 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:23.510 And so it was. It was you didn't have a 0:05:23.510 --> 0:05:26.150 breakfast show of just some people you knew. The idea 0:05:26.150 --> 0:05:28.670 was more just, here's a bunch of people. Yes. And 0:05:28.670 --> 0:05:30.860 you don't even need to know who they are. They're 0:05:30.860 --> 0:05:33.110 just in the cage. It was like the thing we've 0:05:33.110 --> 0:05:35.779 trapped them in is the famous thing. Yes. We want 0:05:35.779 --> 0:05:38.330 you to know the show by the by the the vessel. 0:05:38.330 --> 0:05:40.539 They live in the cage. Which was. Which was. It 0:05:40.550 --> 0:05:43.230 doesn't matter what animals are in there, it's just the cage. 0:05:43.230 --> 0:05:45.210 Sometimes there was five in the cage, sometimes was. 0:05:45.470 --> 0:05:48.080 Doesn't matter. You're not coming to the zoo for the animals. 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:50.120 You're coming because of the quality of the cage. 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:51.350 James Brayshaw was in the cage. 0:05:51.350 --> 0:05:52.860 James Brasher was a cage man. Bridget. 0:05:53.910 --> 0:05:54.400 Pete Berner. 0:05:54.550 --> 0:05:56.929 Pete Berner there's a lot of people rotating throughout the 0:05:56.930 --> 0:05:57.470 cage now. 0:05:57.470 --> 0:05:59.870 There are pros and cons for having a cage like 0:05:59.870 --> 0:06:04.609 system or a radio network. The pro is this is 0:06:04.610 --> 0:06:05.270 the big one. 0:06:05.779 --> 0:06:07.700 No one can get more famous than the show. 0:06:07.700 --> 0:06:11.450 Yes, so you can. If you don't like a performer. Yeah, 0:06:11.450 --> 0:06:12.650 you can shift them away. 0:06:12.860 --> 0:06:14.900 Hey, no, but this is. People love me on this show. 0:06:14.900 --> 0:06:17.300 No they don't. They love the system. You're trapped in 0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:20.839 the cage and they love your containment system. 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:24.690 So you did end up having to pay 5 or 0:06:24.690 --> 0:06:26.929 6 on air talent opposed to just two. That's it. 0:06:26.930 --> 0:06:28.880 But you never had a Colin Jackie situation where they 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.890 were like, hey, we could leave and destroy you. Yeah. 0:06:30.890 --> 0:06:34.350 You can't. They'd be like, no, we we own the cage. Yeah. 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.490 You just come in and out of the door. 0:06:37.580 --> 0:06:39.230 Occasionally we open the door. You're allowed out. 0:06:39.230 --> 0:06:40.279 Yeah. That's it. 0:06:40.310 --> 0:06:42.110 We might remove you and lock the door. You can't 0:06:42.110 --> 0:06:42.529 come back in. 0:06:42.529 --> 0:06:44.540 We've got 25 other lemurs that would love to be 0:06:44.540 --> 0:06:47.210 in the cage. Yeah, so Ali Mo might have been 0:06:47.210 --> 0:06:47.600 in the cage. 0:06:50.660 --> 0:06:52.310 Yes. Anthony Lehman. 0:06:52.310 --> 0:06:55.940 Yeah. Lima. Lima, Mo. So the reason I mentioned the 0:06:55.940 --> 0:06:58.160 cage is because I think that would have been us 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.320 just being like, we would listen to the cage and 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.240 we would go, and this might have been our idea 0:07:02.240 --> 0:07:03.799 of being like, oh, just get whipper in. Like doesn't 0:07:03.800 --> 0:07:06.169 you don't show doesn't have to be about people. It's 0:07:06.170 --> 0:07:09.860 just a general gathering of whoever's around. 0:07:10.540 --> 0:07:14.210 What are your memories of our first ever community radio shows? 0:07:14.230 --> 0:07:17.679 Mine was we tram down from Melbourne University because it 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:22.600 was at a different university, and we do one kind 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.140 of meeting before it. 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:24.910 We go to the pub. 0:07:24.910 --> 0:07:27.790 Yep. Yeah, go to the pub and often we, one 0:07:27.790 --> 0:07:29.950 of us would say I've read the odd spot. 0:07:29.980 --> 0:07:31.450 It was kind of a race to the odds. 0:07:31.930 --> 0:07:34.530 In the paper. I want to read that out in between. 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:36.040 That's and I've got the jokes. 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.230 And there was also a free newspaper at the time 0:07:38.230 --> 0:07:41.950 on trains and trams, Amex. And didn't it. It had 0:07:41.950 --> 0:07:43.000 its own little thing. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.550 It had multiple kind of odds, body type things. That 0:07:45.550 --> 0:07:47.030 was a boom. That was a boom scene. 0:07:47.290 --> 0:07:51.160 Because honestly, this is the very first time where, you know, 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:52.780 this is how you get into radio or you get 0:07:52.780 --> 0:07:55.180 into this sort of thing. You go, hey, we're pretty funny. 0:07:55.180 --> 0:07:59.080 I like being funny. We have fun together. Wouldn't it 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.210 be fun to do it on, on air? And we 0:08:01.210 --> 0:08:04.630 could spread that fun. Yeah. That's good. Oh, what a 0:08:04.630 --> 0:08:06.850 dream would it be if all day we could just 0:08:06.850 --> 0:08:09.940 be having fun? Yes, that. That's good. That's a good intention. 0:08:09.940 --> 0:08:13.240 And it's not until you are walking in the building. 0:08:13.900 --> 0:08:16.450 There you go. But hang on. What are we going 0:08:16.450 --> 0:08:20.260 to be funny about? What are we going to say? Yes. 0:08:20.260 --> 0:08:22.030 And then the other person, we like just funny things 0:08:22.030 --> 0:08:23.530 and you'd be like, yeah, that's what I was thinking. 0:08:23.530 --> 0:08:26.980 But if you thought more about what they will be, 0:08:27.130 --> 0:08:29.140 what will they be? The things we talk about and 0:08:29.140 --> 0:08:31.750 you're like, just what's going on? And then you go, yeah, 0:08:31.750 --> 0:08:35.260 but what is that? And then you start to go, 0:08:35.260 --> 0:08:37.300 oh no, what am I going to talk about? Oh 0:08:37.300 --> 0:08:39.609 my God, I've got to talk about something. Then you 0:08:39.610 --> 0:08:42.010 literally sit there and go, what do people talk about? 0:08:42.100 --> 0:08:44.739 And you, that's when the penny drops. That's when the 0:08:44.740 --> 0:08:47.080 penny drops. Like you actually need to have something to 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.540 say if you're going to ask people to listen. And 0:08:49.540 --> 0:08:52.120 then we just had we're like, the only thing we 0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:56.740 can think of that wouldn't be arrogant to talk like 0:08:56.740 --> 0:08:59.110 it wouldn't be just self-centered to talk about. No one 0:08:59.110 --> 0:09:02.650 cares about us talking about current news. No one cares 0:09:02.650 --> 0:09:05.010 about our personal lives. Because at that time you're like, well, 0:09:05.020 --> 0:09:07.090 no one knows who you are. Yeah, I guess it's 0:09:07.090 --> 0:09:11.410 odd spots. Yeah. That's fun. And factoids. Yeah. Tidbits. That's fun. 0:09:11.410 --> 0:09:11.970 It's always nice. 0:09:11.980 --> 0:09:13.360 You got spots? 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:14.949 Oh, sorry. In the age. 0:09:14.950 --> 0:09:17.469 Oh, it would be like, oh, a man, you know, 0:09:17.470 --> 0:09:20.470 left his entire fortune to his donkey. And now it's 0:09:20.470 --> 0:09:24.310 the richest animal in America. Or, you know, $71 million. Yeah, 0:09:24.309 --> 0:09:25.960 it was on the front page. Last of the age. 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:28.150 We saw Sydney Morning Herald equivalent. It's a true. 0:09:28.150 --> 0:09:28.720 Story. 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.000 It was just it was a it was an odd 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:36.699 spot of news. Yeah. And then then you would hear, 0:09:36.700 --> 0:09:38.950 if you're lucky enough to tune into senior FM, you'd 0:09:38.950 --> 0:09:42.520 hear out 221 year olds, then teeing up three minutes 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:44.980 of witty observations about what that donkey might do with 0:09:44.980 --> 0:09:48.460 the money. Yeah, if other animals were jealous of the money. Yep. 0:09:49.870 --> 0:09:52.090 List goes on. Anyway, this goes on of the comedy 0:09:52.090 --> 0:09:53.439 that would open up from there. 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:58.270 I'm. I was pressing the buttons for us and all 0:09:58.270 --> 0:09:59.890 songs were played off CD. 0:10:00.700 --> 0:10:02.200 And they were our own music too. 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:02.830 And our own music. 0:10:02.830 --> 0:10:05.829 I remember you played Air the French, the front of 0:10:05.830 --> 0:10:11.920 the French soft lounge electronic act air every show. You 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.559 loved it and I loved it. I loved You got 0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:19.809 me into air. But it's it's like absolutely the music 0:10:19.809 --> 0:10:21.310 that you put on it to in the morning to 0:10:21.309 --> 0:10:22.300 wind things down. 0:10:23.980 --> 0:10:27.069 And the other thing am is between you, me and Ryan. 0:10:27.220 --> 0:10:27.939 What a mix. 0:10:27.940 --> 0:10:28.770 We would have spot. 0:10:28.870 --> 0:10:29.770 Comedy in here. 0:10:30.940 --> 0:10:35.470 We would have such different music tastes that if you 0:10:35.470 --> 0:10:37.990 were tuning in to try and get some kind of 0:10:37.990 --> 0:10:41.590 level of entertainment, it was bouncing so far around, and 0:10:41.590 --> 0:10:43.090 then you get a knock on the door from the 0:10:43.090 --> 0:10:46.719 station manager there, Matt, saying, hey, we have to support 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:47.559 one band. 0:10:48.070 --> 0:10:51.460 The Aussie music as well. Oh no, University music and music. 0:10:51.460 --> 0:10:55.010 You'd end up playing something really out there. But we 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.670 we would try and do a lot of Aussie music. 0:10:57.670 --> 0:11:00.339 John Butler definitely got a hell of a run. I know. 0:11:00.340 --> 0:11:04.329 And I actually remember thinking this is like the the 0:11:04.330 --> 0:11:07.150 arrogance of like being 21 or whatever in the studio. 0:11:07.150 --> 0:11:10.360 You think you're helping him? Yeah, yeah. Like if we 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.250 bump into John Butler, I'd be like, yeah mate, we've 0:11:12.250 --> 0:11:16.120 been spinning your music. We've been just just letting you know, mate. 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:17.860 Fighting the good fight, getting the word out. If you 0:11:17.860 --> 0:11:21.489 notice a few more people at Byron like going to 0:11:21.490 --> 0:11:22.000 your gigs. 0:11:22.750 --> 0:11:26.590 So I said to marshy, marshy. There's no round sheets 0:11:26.590 --> 0:11:28.480 for this. Of course not. We didn't have producers in 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.490 our run sheet. So marshy is the guy that puts 0:11:30.490 --> 0:11:34.270 these beats together for us. I said, pick out what 0:11:34.270 --> 0:11:36.970 you want, pick out two bits. He said, well, there 0:11:36.970 --> 0:11:39.459 was three bits. He goes, there was kind of a 0:11:39.460 --> 0:11:41.920 story from Hamish. There's a story from you, Andy, and 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:43.569 there's one from whipper, but I don't think the one 0:11:43.570 --> 0:11:45.940 from whipper is worth listening to, because he didn't really 0:11:45.940 --> 0:11:48.910 put any effort into it, and there's no real direction 0:11:48.910 --> 0:11:49.660 that was going. 0:11:50.290 --> 0:11:53.679 Can we hear that one, please? 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.920 I know you'd want to hear that. And I said, 0:11:57.760 --> 0:11:59.980 now let's just leave the whipper one. 0:11:59.980 --> 0:12:02.109 I reckon this was almost one of the first day 0:12:02.110 --> 0:12:04.179 I met whipper, because you were like, I know this guy. 0:12:04.179 --> 0:12:07.270 And because we met by the Yarra. But like, we'd 0:12:07.270 --> 0:12:10.280 park at a secret park near the. There's. It sheds 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:13.160 along there that like private schools, use for rowing. And 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.920 there was a few unregulated parks and that was kind 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:17.750 of the best free parking in the city. So I 0:12:17.750 --> 0:12:19.490 remember we met down on the Yarra and he had 0:12:19.490 --> 0:12:21.560 a toolbox with him. This is my mate. I was like, 0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.059 what are you. What do you do? And he was like, 0:12:23.059 --> 0:12:27.079 he introduced himself as a handyman. Yeah. 0:12:27.380 --> 0:12:29.420 Yeah. So what we're going to hear is I said, 0:12:29.420 --> 0:12:32.150 I want the start of a show. Okay, so we're 0:12:32.150 --> 0:12:34.670 about to hear the start of a show. 0:12:34.670 --> 0:12:35.360 Yeah, well, you go. 0:12:35.570 --> 0:12:37.970 Somewhere, and then I said, and then pick out another one. 0:12:37.970 --> 0:12:40.640 But let's let's this the start of what I think 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.520 we called cruise control, which was the name of the show. No, 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:45.680 we'd been going with the cage theory. Get a good, 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:46.400 strong brand. 0:12:46.950 --> 0:12:48.650 To ourselves, though we should have been the ones calling 0:12:48.650 --> 0:12:50.870 ourselves Hamish Andy to get the name out there. We've 0:12:50.870 --> 0:12:54.710 we've sided with management, build up, cruise control, cruise control, 0:12:54.830 --> 0:12:56.870 cruise control, cruise control. Tell you what, when the when 0:12:56.870 --> 0:12:59.599 you kicked into French banned air. Yeah. Boy, did we 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:01.370 cruise at 12 k's an hour. 0:13:03.950 --> 0:13:06.860 Here we go. No date. 0:13:06.860 --> 0:13:09.410 Year 2002. 0:13:12.340 --> 0:13:17.839 Come on. Oh my God. Two. 0:13:20.809 --> 0:13:24.290 Yes. In a very good afternoon. You're on cruise control 90.7. 0:13:24.860 --> 0:13:28.250 I'm here with Michael Whipple. Whipper. Hello, Randy. Very, very well. 0:13:28.250 --> 0:13:31.250 And yourself? Ryan. Sheldon. Yes, I'm good too. And boy, 0:13:31.250 --> 0:13:33.870 do we have an average show for you today. Go 0:13:33.950 --> 0:13:36.710 above average for today. Yes. I'm subpar, though. I feel 0:13:36.710 --> 0:13:39.470 up to it. We're going to go live to. We're 0:13:39.470 --> 0:13:41.540 tweaking right now, but he's in the exam, so we're 0:13:41.540 --> 0:13:43.400 going to cancel that. We've got a brand new segment 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.949 for you to catch up with all the World Cup fever. Yeah. 0:13:46.490 --> 0:13:48.170 And amongst other things, all that in the next hour 0:13:48.170 --> 0:13:50.870 on cruise control. Looking got the best reading show in 0:13:50.870 --> 0:13:53.960 Melbourne largely due to statistical errors. But the second magic 0:13:54.950 --> 0:13:59.000 welcome to Hamish Blake just entered. Oh here he is 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:00.949 from his exam. Ladies and gents out there. 0:14:00.950 --> 0:14:05.480 Hey welcome everyone. I'd just like to know I started 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:07.880 that applause. Pretty good bloke. So he took it up 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.400 quite quickly there. Yeah, I've just come from an exam, 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:12.440 as I'm sure everybody knows and all wishing me the 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:16.040 best job. Everyone knows appreciate the wishes and. But they 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.020 might have fallen on deaf ears because I think I 0:14:18.020 --> 0:14:21.280 performed quite badly in this exam. Um, needless to say, 0:14:21.290 --> 0:14:23.150 had to ring in a few of the old tricks, 0:14:23.150 --> 0:14:28.340 such as writing after pens down and elaborate cheating cheering these. 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:29.240 Along with that. 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.480 These are the thing though I rely. Andy and I 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.330 have a very similar study pattern. Whereas we attend, we 0:14:35.330 --> 0:14:39.229 selectively attend. It's selective attendance. Yes. Or some people call 0:14:39.230 --> 0:14:43.250 it null attendance. Yeah, but then I really rely on 0:14:43.250 --> 0:14:46.280 the more I procrastinate and procrastinate. Procrastinate on the 15 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:48.920 minutes in the car park, before the exam, during reading 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:50.810 time to learn my stuff. 0:14:50.810 --> 0:14:53.800 Yes, you skipped reading time. Reading time. Wasting time. 0:14:53.810 --> 0:14:55.820 I think I'm not an idiot. I can't just go 0:14:55.820 --> 0:14:57.920 into a digital systems exam like this morning and do 0:14:57.920 --> 0:14:59.300 it off the top of my head. I need to 0:14:59.300 --> 0:15:03.260 15 minutes of learning to reproduce that semester's work. 0:15:03.260 --> 0:15:05.570 You can't push it the last minute. It's crazy. Okay, so. 0:15:05.570 --> 0:15:08.330 Here's here's a deal. I'm in my car. The pony, 0:15:08.540 --> 0:15:11.120 as the gents in the booth know and has probably 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.040 not many of the listeners know I have a car. 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.680 What do you do now? I'm on my way to 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.770 the exam and the pony decided to, well, play up 0:15:18.770 --> 0:15:22.640 a little bit. I break down. Yeah, just really getting 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:25.640 in the exam spirit. Hey, Hamish. Yeah. Big morning. Huh? 0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:27.680 Like we just let's just mix it up a bit 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:32.030 and I'll break down. And what happened is my Hamish car. 0:15:32.150 --> 0:15:33.770 Is similar to Herbie. It talks to him. 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:35.780 Yeah, it does actually. It's got a look computer that 0:15:35.780 --> 0:15:38.420 says okay, which is a big lie because it's never okay. 0:15:38.420 --> 0:15:42.950 It's always breaking down. The car decided it overheats a 0:15:42.950 --> 0:15:44.330 fair bit, and that's all I can deal with that. 0:15:44.330 --> 0:15:46.520 If it wants to run hot, then let it run hot. Yeah, 0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:50.450 but it did. I had overheated the brakes, and they 0:15:50.450 --> 0:15:52.730 swelled up to such a point that when you press 0:15:52.730 --> 0:15:54.680 on the brakes, normally they go onto the wheel. Then 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:56.060 you take your foot off and they come back off 0:15:56.060 --> 0:15:58.400 the wheel. I get it, yeah. Spring loaded. Well, I'm 0:15:58.400 --> 0:15:59.720 doing a lot of hand actions, but I think it 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:01.760 really gets to the idea they don't like that come 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:02.930 across on radio that way. I'll say. 0:16:02.930 --> 0:16:03.610 The swelling. Yeah. 0:16:03.660 --> 0:16:07.490 The diagram you bought into the you project the. But 0:16:07.490 --> 0:16:10.010 today they overheated so much that they just swelled up 0:16:10.010 --> 0:16:11.600 and pressed against the brakes. So when you took your 0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:13.790 foot off the brakes, the car's still stopped. The car 0:16:13.790 --> 0:16:14.930 is not going to go anywhere. 0:16:14.930 --> 0:16:19.970 So you go with rice rest, ice compression, compression elevation. Yeah. 0:16:20.030 --> 0:16:23.270 Enhancement of breaking down the. And so I just had 0:16:23.270 --> 0:16:25.400 to set the car to turn it off and let 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:27.740 her have a bit of a cool, like just cooling 0:16:27.740 --> 0:16:29.750 upon a windowsill. I was having fun. It didn't have 0:16:29.750 --> 0:16:32.240 to be anywhere except my exam, which was worth 80% 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:34.700 of my mark. So I was just kicking back. It 0:16:34.700 --> 0:16:37.310 was a one line kind of thing, kind of rides 0:16:37.310 --> 0:16:39.440 everyone behind me. Hey, Hamish, how are you going? Oh, 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.660 sorry about your car. Although I could read it in 0:16:41.660 --> 0:16:45.020 their eyes. Their mouth was saying a lot of expletives. 0:16:45.020 --> 0:16:47.660 And why did you break down here and just head down? 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:50.870 I didn't mean it. It would have broken down at 0:16:50.870 --> 0:16:53.330 home if I could have. Or in a petrol station 0:16:53.330 --> 0:16:55.610 or never. So at the end of the story, at 0:16:55.610 --> 0:16:57.230 the end of the line, the car got better. It 0:16:57.260 --> 0:16:59.720 brakes cooled down enough for me to limp to the exam. 0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:02.630 The pie was cool, was cool. 0:17:02.630 --> 0:17:04.909 People were questioning that. What's that by doing? I don't 0:17:04.910 --> 0:17:08.990 know the but I've had to take. Now my car 0:17:08.990 --> 0:17:10.970 has a few things that it's just not able to 0:17:10.970 --> 0:17:12.859 do that other cars can it kind of go over 0:17:12.859 --> 0:17:15.830 a hundred and I know. Yeah. On the bad, on 0:17:15.830 --> 0:17:19.160 the bad day it won't activate which is other cars can. 0:17:19.160 --> 0:17:21.410 I've had to really I'm starting to notice I'm taking 0:17:21.410 --> 0:17:23.030 a lot of things out of its repertoire now. It 0:17:23.030 --> 0:17:25.010 kind of driving traffic because it stops art, makes its 0:17:25.010 --> 0:17:28.310 brakes overheat. It can't stop. It's getting to the point 0:17:28.310 --> 0:17:31.640 where if I'm standing on a long, flat piece of 0:17:31.640 --> 0:17:34.700 gently downward sloping road and you're at the other end, 0:17:34.700 --> 0:17:37.010 Andy and I want to get to you. And it's 0:17:37.010 --> 0:17:40.520 about 18°C. It's just been serviced. There's a cool wind 0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:43.040 blowing and the gods are with me. I could probably 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:44.960 start the car and drive down to you. You mess 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:47.870 with any of those factors, puts dampening curves in the road. 0:17:47.869 --> 0:17:50.630 Start raising the heat a little bit. Introduce one other 0:17:50.630 --> 0:17:53.810 car as traffic. Not a chance. We just let's just jog. 0:17:53.810 --> 0:17:56.990 Incidentally, how much you selling an Audi prefer? 0:17:57.050 --> 0:18:01.879 Not to mention the the brand name, mate, call 999925 3711. 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:05.630 She's a great car. Runs perfectly. Yeah, she's topped cruise control. 0:18:08.580 --> 0:18:12.480 I mean, it's your first time on radio. Yeah. You're 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.330 having a go at telling a great story. It's a 0:18:14.330 --> 0:18:16.080 great story. You're racing through it. 0:18:16.410 --> 0:18:19.109 And I'm trying to be a supportive as possible. Yep. 0:18:19.500 --> 0:18:21.629 But I didn't leave a lot of room for whipper, 0:18:21.630 --> 0:18:23.220 did we? I mean, even here. 0:18:23.490 --> 0:18:24.770 That line right. 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:25.560 There as. 0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:27.690 Well, right? He doesn't even get a microphone. 0:18:28.859 --> 0:18:32.700 Maybe we'll rotating people. I don't know, guys. Okay. 0:18:32.700 --> 0:18:34.620 We have a sub cage. We had a pen that 0:18:34.619 --> 0:18:38.010 you'd sit in. It's funny, isn't it? Because I can 0:18:38.010 --> 0:18:41.730 hear I mean it's funny. I've often you think back 0:18:41.730 --> 0:18:43.500 to those early days and I don't really have an 0:18:43.500 --> 0:18:46.260 answer when people go, well, you you guys started as like, 0:18:46.260 --> 0:18:49.650 it wasn't Hamish and Andy always like, why did it happen? 0:18:50.070 --> 0:18:52.500 And I can even hear it. They're like, I'm just 0:18:52.500 --> 0:18:54.389 talking to you. I'm just talking back to you. 0:18:55.109 --> 0:18:56.370 It was like, look. 0:18:56.670 --> 0:18:59.190 Pretty rough for the other guys in the room. I 0:18:59.190 --> 0:18:59.969 think we just. 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:02.160 That was the thing I noticed the most is you 0:19:02.160 --> 0:19:04.770 and I are in sync. Talking with each other, finishing 0:19:04.770 --> 0:19:05.790 each other's sentence. 0:19:05.940 --> 0:19:08.340 What he was like on the batch. You know, I 0:19:08.340 --> 0:19:11.850 referenced Sam Woods season of The Bachelor. You can tell 0:19:11.850 --> 0:19:13.620 him in snares, we're in love from the moment they 0:19:13.619 --> 0:19:15.030 said eyes on each other. And you had to go 0:19:15.030 --> 0:19:18.150 through the whole season with him pretending. I think it's 0:19:18.150 --> 0:19:20.550 a little bit Sam and says, well. 0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:22.619 We've heard one of your stories. It's only fair to 0:19:22.619 --> 0:19:25.920 hear what I'm buying. That's marshy. Put it. So, Mike, 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:28.709 you give a nod to the sponsors, will. Yeah. 0:19:28.710 --> 0:19:31.080 If they're still willing to be associated with this quality 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:31.650 of radio. 0:19:32.660 --> 0:19:33.439 Thanks, Mike. 0:19:33.590 --> 0:19:35.570 You're nervous, and we're about to hear your story. 0:19:35.780 --> 0:19:36.920 It's going to be worse. All right. 0:19:37.100 --> 0:19:39.080 If we were going back to coach this show now, 0:19:39.080 --> 0:19:43.700 feel like. Okay, guys, we've we've now. Hi. We're Hamish and. 0:19:43.820 --> 0:19:46.220 Don't worry about the time travel stuff, but we've been, 0:19:46.220 --> 0:19:48.470 you know, we've had. We've been in the industry for 0:19:48.470 --> 0:19:51.830 a while. I think I mean, as people that are 0:19:51.830 --> 0:19:53.300 doing their very first show because you've got to start 0:19:53.300 --> 0:19:55.850 somewhere you can't you don't want to create a culture 0:19:55.850 --> 0:19:58.040 of like, don't have a go know. And, you know, 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:01.700 we're like, we're so young. I think we're like 21 here. 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:04.730 So I think you'd go so young to how I 0:20:04.730 --> 0:20:07.610 feel now, but you'd I think you go like, guys, 0:20:07.609 --> 0:20:11.119 story selection. Great. You know, talk about something that is 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:15.020 relevant to you. Probably rushing. You're rushing quite a bit, 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:17.210 but I don't think you're confident in any of your points. 0:20:17.210 --> 0:20:19.430 And you know what? I definitely wouldn't have written any down. 0:20:19.430 --> 0:20:21.409 I would have gone. I know the gist of it. 0:20:21.410 --> 0:20:22.760 I only know that because then I did that for 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:24.649 the rest of my career. Yes, like I know the 0:20:24.650 --> 0:20:28.980 gist of this story and I'll it'll reveal itself as 0:20:29.090 --> 0:20:30.230 as I tell it, but. 0:20:30.410 --> 0:20:34.490 The nervous I can just even the red light going 0:20:34.490 --> 0:20:37.700 red and just being on air. I was just so 0:20:37.700 --> 0:20:40.580 nervous every time it started when it started, because it's 0:20:40.580 --> 0:20:43.040 like we are broadcasting, we're putting ourselves out there for 0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.260 this and you can't. It took ages to get to 0:20:45.260 --> 0:20:48.200 the point where I don't really care. Oh, and you. 0:20:48.200 --> 0:20:51.410 Also are so used to in real life and doing 0:20:51.410 --> 0:20:52.790 stand up, which I was doing at the time, to 0:20:52.820 --> 0:20:55.370 do go like if you get a laugh. That's funny. Yeah. 0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:59.240 If you don't, you've missed something. Yeah. And that's not 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:01.190 how it happens on radio. You obviously aren't getting laughs 0:21:01.190 --> 0:21:03.109 the whole time. You have to kind of learn to go. 0:21:04.130 --> 0:21:07.490 I'm confident in what I'm saying. Yes is connecting. Like 0:21:07.490 --> 0:21:10.490 you don't have to just keep rushing until you get 0:21:10.490 --> 0:21:13.820 like people falling off their chairs laughing. Yeah. So that's 0:21:13.970 --> 0:21:16.250 and that's the thing. But that's why you say that's 0:21:16.250 --> 0:21:18.170 like a whole new world. Yeah. It would have been. 0:21:18.170 --> 0:21:20.330 This would have been. Yeah. That's early, early days. Early 0:21:20.330 --> 0:21:23.300 early days. I remember that funnily enough, I, I remember 0:21:23.300 --> 0:21:25.609 that digital systems and microprocessors exam. 0:21:25.609 --> 0:21:28.100 Well, the car also is a big part of our lives. 0:21:28.100 --> 0:21:28.850 Huge part of our lives. 0:21:28.850 --> 0:21:30.350 We then yeah, we did a road trip, made a 0:21:30.350 --> 0:21:31.580 comedy show about it. You and I. 0:21:31.580 --> 0:21:33.560 Did comedy festival show off the back of that. 0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:36.050 And it kind of was like the template for every 0:21:36.050 --> 0:21:39.650 travel show we ever did then afterwards. But the I fail, 0:21:39.650 --> 0:21:42.680 I failed digital systems of microprocessors. I've got a 46. 0:21:42.890 --> 0:21:48.260 Oh yeah. Yeah. Because I remember I went to argue. 0:21:48.260 --> 0:21:50.240 I'd heard that if you get close enough to, you 0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:50.600 can argue. 0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:51.440 Yeah, we got told that. 0:21:51.440 --> 0:21:54.290 I tried to argue and that was where I learnt that. Gee, 0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:58.040 you need a good argument. Yeah. Because my argument was 0:21:58.040 --> 0:22:01.250 I would have liked my argument was you'd have to agree. 0:22:01.250 --> 0:22:03.860 I'm pretty close. And they're like, yeah, but that's why 0:22:03.859 --> 0:22:06.800 we have the rule of 50. We draw a line there. Yeah. 0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:10.490 All right. I just heard that if you were, if 0:22:10.490 --> 0:22:11.629 you really wanted it. 0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:14.390 Let's have a listen back to what I was up 0:22:14.390 --> 0:22:19.190 to him. One thing Marshall pointed out about this is 0:22:19.190 --> 0:22:22.340 that apparently there was a renovation going on in the 0:22:22.340 --> 0:22:26.390 studio next door, or like a shop next door at 0:22:26.390 --> 0:22:29.090 the university. I don't remember this, but he said it's 0:22:29.330 --> 0:22:30.530 quite obvious that. 0:22:30.530 --> 0:22:33.889 There's building going construction. Remember then what the whole uni 0:22:33.890 --> 0:22:36.320 was being rebuilt, remember? And you'd walk out and you'd 0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:39.590 be in scaffolding, right. And because I remember that because 0:22:39.590 --> 0:22:42.980 remember I used, they used often had a sausage sizzle. Yes. 0:22:42.980 --> 0:22:45.619 And there was like a quadrangle outside of this part 0:22:45.619 --> 0:22:48.140 of the university. And, and the day we did our 0:22:48.140 --> 0:22:50.330 show was always the day they had the sausages along. 0:22:50.330 --> 0:22:53.210 And I loved getting a sausage after the show. And 0:22:53.210 --> 0:22:55.400 then they were close for months while they were renovating. 0:22:55.400 --> 0:23:00.020 I still remember the disappointment that these renovations shut the quadrangle, 0:23:00.020 --> 0:23:02.270 therefore no sausage and bread for home. 0:23:02.420 --> 0:23:04.640 Well, what it seems like is they were down tools 0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:07.070 looking for their own sausages. The workers, when you told 0:23:07.070 --> 0:23:10.159 your story about the car and Marty says that I 0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:12.379 think they're back working construction. You might be able to 0:23:12.380 --> 0:23:13.430 hear some construction. 0:23:13.430 --> 0:23:16.970 Just awesome. Awesome. Good on anyone that ever listened to 0:23:16.970 --> 0:23:20.060 this show. Anyone ever did. Yeah, like if someone's out 0:23:20.060 --> 0:23:23.960 there that listened for more than a minute, considering the 0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:26.119 options you had of how to spend a minute of 0:23:26.119 --> 0:23:30.080 your life. Thank you. Yeah, if you did, there's no 0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:32.180 evidence anyone ever did. But if you did, that just 0:23:32.180 --> 0:23:32.990 blows my mind. 0:23:32.990 --> 0:23:33.560 Here we go. 0:23:34.580 --> 0:23:38.270 No date year 2002. 0:23:39.200 --> 0:23:42.350 Welcome back. You're from Cruise Control 90.7. 0:23:42.650 --> 0:23:46.459 That was, uh, la the wise guys there. And before that, 0:23:46.460 --> 0:23:48.950 we had Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson. Now we've got 0:23:48.950 --> 0:23:51.080 Andy Lee talking about work related incidents. 0:23:51.230 --> 0:23:53.150 And the third person we'll just sit back. 0:23:53.900 --> 0:23:56.750 Might be gentlemen you are familiar with my work. But 0:23:56.750 --> 0:23:58.669 next door there's a Thai restaurant and we're trying to 0:23:58.670 --> 0:24:03.580 establish a relationship with this, this guy whose name is Dez. Um, 0:24:03.710 --> 0:24:06.590 so we can get the discount, obviously. So Wednesday, it's 0:24:06.590 --> 0:24:07.850 green curry. Wednesday. 0:24:07.850 --> 0:24:09.979 Can I just say something? Certainly, man. I think I'd 0:24:09.980 --> 0:24:12.500 like to go and establish a relationship with the carpenters 0:24:12.500 --> 0:24:15.830 next door. I don't care what the relationship is, just 0:24:15.830 --> 0:24:17.990 as long as I end up with the hammer afterwards. 0:24:18.109 --> 0:24:19.970 Not gonna hit him. I just think it would be 0:24:19.970 --> 0:24:21.739 good for the radio show if they weren't banging on 0:24:21.740 --> 0:24:23.480 the wall. Just want to contribute. Yeah. 0:24:23.960 --> 0:24:25.669 Well, on Wednesdays down at. 0:24:25.670 --> 0:24:26.930 Mine, keeping the bait. Yeah. 0:24:27.830 --> 0:24:31.280 My work. We have green curry Wednesdays. All right. Whereby 0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:35.130 we order. A grain carry on a Wednesday. So very. 0:24:35.170 --> 0:24:36.220 Yeah. No that's like that. 0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:38.189 Yeah that's good but and so I'm in there. I 0:24:38.190 --> 0:24:40.110 got called up by my work by Paul to go 0:24:40.109 --> 0:24:43.230 in and establish the relationship. A bit of gags going down. 0:24:43.230 --> 0:24:45.450 I've gone in and I've gone, yeah. Liz how are 0:24:45.450 --> 0:24:48.810 you doing green curry Wednesdays Liz a yeah.

And I said, Liz. And he went, It's Des. 0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:09.540 And I thought, oh no good down days deep a 0:25:09.540 --> 0:25:13.770 discount L for Liz, L for losing the discount I think, 0:25:13.890 --> 0:25:16.320 which was a real problem for me. And I thought, 0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:17.909 I've ruined it forever. And I thought, I've got to 0:25:17.910 --> 0:25:20.610 establish this. I've got establish this relationship back. Yeah. I 0:25:20.609 --> 0:25:22.590 can't let this slide. I've got to go back back 0:25:22.590 --> 0:25:24.270 in and work it out. So I got out the 0:25:24.420 --> 0:25:27.209 my work letterhead and wrote a letter for him. And 0:25:27.210 --> 0:25:30.530 here's how it went, guys. Okay. Uh. Dig it.

Nice. 0:25:45.300 --> 0:25:47.820 I'm sure you can see past this picture. I'd like 0:25:47.820 --> 0:25:51.180 you not to tell people because it's close to my heart. Dave. Andy. Oh, 0:25:51.180 --> 0:25:52.109 there I go again. 0:25:52.680 --> 0:25:54.270 Seems to be a writing impediment. 0:25:55.170 --> 0:25:58.470 So yeah, no.

And we can have a 0:26:08.850 --> 0:26:10.530 talk about it, mate, I'd like to patch things up. 0:26:10.530 --> 0:26:13.109 Anyone can call. Really? Yeah. Similar to callers who people 0:26:13.109 --> 0:26:18.540 look like sporting equipment. 9927 3711 that's right. No it's not. No, no. 0:26:18.540 --> 0:26:19.169 It doesn't matter. 0:26:19.170 --> 0:26:19.950 No, 9 to 5. 0:26:19.950 --> 0:26:21.990 It'll just throw all those callers off because we get 0:26:21.990 --> 0:26:26.340 a lot for the real callers. 9925 30 711 are perfect. 0:26:26.340 --> 0:26:29.359 Thank you very much. Time is Shaun cruise control. Oh. 0:26:31.650 --> 0:26:31.980 What. 0:26:35.609 --> 0:26:37.500 What a lot to unpack this. 0:26:37.500 --> 0:26:42.179 Summer of flurries. First of all just barreling through the 0:26:42.180 --> 0:26:45.720 story which is great. We're really good. Good story I 0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:51.110 mean forming an alliance with with leaseholders. Yeah. Just the banging. 0:26:51.359 --> 0:26:55.200 So funny that we reference it once ago, but I 0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:57.210 think it's because it's like we were only allowed in 0:26:57.210 --> 0:27:00.600 once every two weeks, like, yeah, this was our time 0:27:00.600 --> 0:27:02.030 to do radio. We weren't going. 0:27:02.100 --> 0:27:04.530 And you're only allowed six week lots. That's right. 0:27:04.619 --> 0:27:07.260 So we had one a weekly show for six weeks 0:27:07.350 --> 0:27:09.480 and then you wouldn't get one for the next year. 0:27:09.480 --> 0:27:10.410 I think it was the next. 0:27:10.410 --> 0:27:12.480 6 or 12 weeks. It was a long wait. So 0:27:12.480 --> 0:27:14.639 it was like, we don't get many chances and I 0:27:14.640 --> 0:27:16.410 think we have to play 2 or 3 songs in 0:27:16.410 --> 0:27:19.350 a row or two. So if there's a carpenter, if 0:27:19.350 --> 0:27:22.859 there's someone's building a house next door, we must keep going. Yes. 0:27:22.859 --> 0:27:25.260 And good on you, because you're like, I'm going to 0:27:25.260 --> 0:27:26.969 get the flying out, I am. I don't care if 0:27:26.970 --> 0:27:29.160 I'm flying in a storm. I'm getting the hours in. 0:27:29.160 --> 0:27:30.630 I've written a funny letter that I. 0:27:30.630 --> 0:27:31.530 Need to read out. 0:27:31.650 --> 0:27:33.930 I don't care how much banging is going on. 0:27:34.380 --> 0:27:37.080 And then right at the end, I don't think that 0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:39.330 was a joke. Where we went, if you look like 0:27:39.330 --> 0:27:39.960 sporting equipment. 0:27:39.960 --> 0:27:40.260 Yeah. 0:27:40.260 --> 0:27:44.190 The phone topic of do you look like. I mean, 0:27:44.190 --> 0:27:48.090 considering we never got any calls anyway, I don't think 0:27:48.090 --> 0:27:50.460 we would have even tried that on a national radio 0:27:50.460 --> 0:27:53.219 show where you have millions of people listening. I feel 0:27:53.220 --> 0:27:55.920 like percentage wise, I don't think we get 2 or 0:27:55.920 --> 0:27:58.950 3 calls out of it.
