Speaker 1: Look who it is. It's Jimmy, often described as the
Speaker 1: Darryl Lee Chocolate of executive producers. Jimmy, good morning to you.
Speaker 2: I don't think so, but there you go. Thank you.
Speaker 1: That's the first I've got this thing at the moment
Speaker 1: for Darryl Lee licorice dripping in dark.
Speaker 2: I love that. I loved him. You know, remember the
Speaker 2: chocolate bullets what you were talking about.
Speaker 1: Well, the bullets is one thing, but to have these
Speaker 1: big chunks of beautiful licorice, also dripping in dark chocolate,
Speaker 1: and they're on special at the moment. They were last week.
Speaker 1: I don't know where it will be this week. Two
Speaker 1: for the price of one.
Speaker 2: Oh, how good that you did? You head down to
Speaker 2: the supermarket while you're a bit sick.
Speaker 1: About you that's right. It makes you feel better though
Speaker 1: I was very sick Enoughter you eat a packet of that,
Speaker 1: you just feel better about the world.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I reckon, So I reckon. Something to make you
Speaker 2: feel better is when you start the day with a
Speaker 2: bit of gratitude. What do you reckon? Does that work? Sometimes?
Speaker 1: It's very important. Gratitude is a very very powerful sentiment.
Speaker 2: It is it is, and that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 2: Actually on the weekend, I thought of because I was
Speaker 2: driving out of my garage and it's been really frosty
Speaker 2: these mornings. It's been freezing here in Melbourne, and I
Speaker 2: was in the garage and I drove out, and I thought, actually,
Speaker 2: it's not too bad because I'm in the garage. But
Speaker 2: I remembered when I was younger and I would have
Speaker 2: to park out on the grass. We didn't have a garage.
Speaker 2: We had a car port, but I couldn't park in
Speaker 2: there and the windows were frosted completely iced over. I
Speaker 2: used to have to use the water to get off
Speaker 2: the ice, and I was freezing. The heat didn't work properly.
Speaker 2: And I thought, that's something I didn't have, But I
Speaker 2: can't live without now. I thought I might ask Tony
Speaker 2: Max something you didn't have, but now you couldn't live without.
Speaker 2: I couldn't live without a garage now impossible.
Speaker 1: No, it would be very, very difficult back in my
Speaker 1: day for the brother me and my brother Phil would
Speaker 1: we didn't have an inside a toilet.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good one.
Speaker 1: So you can imagine getting up at one, two, three,
Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning. Here two boys that you're
Speaker 1: thinking to.
Speaker 3: You, I've got to go to go and it would
Speaker 3: be you know, like zero degrees down in the backyard
Speaker 3: just to go out and go and have a tinkle.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, no, thank you. How yeah, so you must
Speaker 2: be really grateful now to be able to do that.
Speaker 1: That's right, all these years later and we've just got
Speaker 1: the inside version, and I got to tell you it
Speaker 1: brings great job. We are grateful.
Speaker 2: That's grateful for that. I've got another couple on the list.
Speaker 2: This is a bit so. You know Fox Tell Ko
Speaker 2: Sport on TV. When I was growing up, my parents
Speaker 2: no Fox Tell, no cable TV. I would have to
Speaker 2: listen to what to get the Richmond games, I'd have
Speaker 2: to look in the paper and find the radio stations
Speaker 2: that were calling the games, either radio in my room
Speaker 2: listening to Richmond, which was okay, you know, because I
Speaker 2: fell in love with Rex and the three W callers
Speaker 2: and that sort of thing. But all my mates had cable,
Speaker 2: they all had Foxtel. I didn't have it. Another thing
Speaker 2: I didn't have was the air con and central heating.
Speaker 1: We had no Why did you have air condition?
Speaker 2: I know, not a chance until I was I think
Speaker 2: there was would have been eighteen I reckon, but yeah, no,
Speaker 2: I couldn't live without it now, absolutely brilliant. Did you
Speaker 2: have any others on your list?
Speaker 1: Yeah? So for the other one for me would be
Speaker 1: we only have had brick hits and when you think
Speaker 1: about now, brickheads, so we didn't have guests. And then
Speaker 1: some years that it might have been the late sixties
Speaker 1: we were kids that maybe early seventies, we got this
Speaker 1: thing called a gas heater. Oh yes, and that was
Speaker 1: just like top of the was a ub to have
Speaker 1: this incredible new gas heater that warmed the lound room
Speaker 1: like we'd never known a before.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's what well, that's what I grew up with,
Speaker 2: is the gas heater. So that was really you know,
Speaker 2: that was okay. But then once when we had central
Speaker 2: heating heat, it was like.
Speaker 1: Holy central heating.
Speaker 2: That was the top of the was correct.
Speaker 1: And you go to somebody else's house and they'd have
Speaker 1: the maybe you go to somebody else's house at friend's
Speaker 1: house and they'd have under the concrete heating and it
Speaker 1: would come up through the floor. The whole house was warm.
Speaker 1: Just to know the floor was really warm to walk on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know. Well I used to go to
Speaker 2: friendsus for Foxtel and watch the footy and that sort
Speaker 2: of stuff. But no, I still like them as well
Speaker 2: and have that this one, you know Spotify now. Back
Speaker 2: in the day, as you know, I mean, well for me,
Speaker 2: I'm obviously a bit younger than you, but we'd have
Speaker 2: to go and by the CDs or tape video hits
Speaker 2: on a Saturday morning to listen to our music and
Speaker 2: and all of that. But now we've got it at
Speaker 2: our fingertips. Spotify any song you want or album or
Speaker 2: do you think it takes away a bit of the
Speaker 2: magic used to go and buy that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Look, Billy and I have talked about this. Billy
Speaker 1: Panella and I have discussed this over many many years.
Speaker 1: One of the joys was and people listening no go
Speaker 1: you'd go and get to say an album, and you
Speaker 1: would learn the lyrics because often they'd be published on
Speaker 1: the back of the album, or you would learn who
Speaker 1: the players were. You'd learn the which tracks fell into
Speaker 1: each other after, you know, so it was very important
Speaker 1: you listen to track side one, track one right through
Speaker 1: and you knew the context of each of those songs
Speaker 1: sitting on the album, what that album cover looked like.
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's available as much as it was,
Speaker 1: but we're going back sixty seventies and eighties, of course, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, you're so right, you're so right. And I
Speaker 2: think it also it's a thing with the you know
Speaker 2: movies these days, when you've got on the streaming platforms.
Speaker 2: Used to go to the video store and get it,
Speaker 2: and you'd rewatch it. You watch it a few times,
Speaker 2: you'd read the cover, you'd see who the actors were,
Speaker 2: you'd pay attention to every line. But now it's like
Speaker 2: everything is to our fingertips and we've got so many
Speaker 2: options you don't really pay attention. So I think some
Speaker 2: of that magic has gone.
Speaker 1: And the other thing too, for me Jimmy's APO would
Speaker 1: be the fact that you might be watching one of
Speaker 1: the streaming things. Show comes to an end and then
Speaker 1: you're looking to look at the credits. You want to
Speaker 1: spend time with the credit, and then it disappears off
Speaker 1: the screen. They've moved on to a promo for another show,
Speaker 1: and go, no, I want to watch the credits.
Speaker 2: Go back to the credit. I've done the same thing.
Speaker 1: I love it one, double three, six nine three. So
Speaker 1: what are we going to ask the audience.
Speaker 2: So something you didn't have, but now you can't live without.
Speaker 1: Oh there, it is something we didn't have when we
Speaker 1: were growing up, but there's something with which you just
Speaker 1: cannot do without. One double three six nine three. Jimmy,
