You know, I was really taken them back 41 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: by a tweet that went around recently, which is I'm 42 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: paraphrasing some of the effective Americans are always so shocked 43 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,119 Speaker 2: when they learned how much Australians hate them. 44 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: I didn't see that, and I didn't know that. 45 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: Well, I was taken am back, not because of I mean, yes, 46 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: I was shocked, but I was also taken him back 47 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: because not because I desperately crave the approval of a 48 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: bunch of sun burnt racists, because I can get that 49 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: if I just go to the South and pretend to 50 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 2: care about football, But it's because of how similar I 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 2: feel like Americans and Australians are. 52 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: Am I talking to my ass here? Do you feel that? 53 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: I have never really thought about that much? 54 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 2: We're both descended from the same awful British stock. 55 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: Well, only one of us are prisoners because it wasn't 56 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: Australia originally basically a gunt prison care. 57 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't like talking about that. Well I don't, okay, 58 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: But we are also alike in the way that we've 59 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: both committed atrocities against the indigenous peoples of our country, 60 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: and we're both rowdy and boisterous. I generally love every 61 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 2: Australian I've ever met, actually, you know, like like one 62 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: on one interactions. But I am struck by the and 63 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: hardly the first person to be so, by the disconnect 64 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 2: between the gregariousness and charm of the people and the 65 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: fact that half their country is just a vast screaming 66 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: waste land that occasionally issues constantly issues all manner of 67 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: fauna that are trying to kill you. And you know 68 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 2: they get a pass for me because of Nick Cave 69 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: and ACDC. Oh sure, and the song case sam by 70 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: Cold Chisel. 71 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Oh I saw Cold Chisel live. Yeah, okay, yeah, I 72 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: can see how hammered. Right. Oh sure, yeah, well wait 73 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: which one of us? But yes, I. 74 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: Wish it was you. Fair if you were drunker than 75 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: a performer at any given thing, I've seriously questioned. 76 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: Your health, especially if it was Cold Chisel for. 77 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: It's also funny that like a third of Paul Hogan's 78 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: wiki is about his alleged tax evasion. Oh yeah, no 79 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: that I didn't really get into that in here, but 80 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: it kind of adds to his mystique, his lore. Well, 81 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: it seems like he won like against the government, you know. 82 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he sued the Australian government. 83 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: And he won in certain like he won certain key decisions, 84 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 2: but at the end of the day they were still like, 85 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure you hid like forty million dollars from 86 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 2: us in a Swiss bank account yep. And he insists 87 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 2: he's done nothing wrong and I'm sure, within the constraints 88 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: of creative bookkeeping, he didn't. 89 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: But you know he compared the government to the Taliban, 90 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: which I appreciate. 91 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,559 Speaker 2: Is that classic Australian tact. 92 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: Well, for those of you who haven't seen Crocodile Dundee 93 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: in a while, the story begins when New York reporter 94 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: sued Charlton journeys to the Southern Hemisphere to interview Mick 95 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: Crocodile Dundee, a mysterious hunter who's rumored to have survived 96 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: in the wild after having his leg bitten off by 97 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: a crocodile before the fi the odds and making it 98 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: out of the outback and back to civilization and into 99 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: all of our heart, in all of our hearts. However, 100 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: when this reporter meets Crocodile Dundee, she discovers that the 101 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: story has been exaggerated slightly and he was just maimed 102 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: and scarred very badly by said crocodile, a love bite, 103 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: as he calls it. But his story is remarkable nonetheless. Apparently, 104 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: Dundee was born in a cave in the Northern Territory 105 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: and raised by Indigenous Australians. He's unaware of his age 106 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: with the Aboriginal elders, telling him only that he was 107 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: quote born in the summertime. Prior to the beautiful Reporter's arrival, 108 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: he'd never been to a city, equipping cities are crowded, right, 109 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: If I went and lived in some city, I'd only 110 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: make it worse, which is both logically true and self deprecating. Yeah, 111 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: soone the reporter winds up bringing him to New York City, 112 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: where hilarity and romance ensues. 113 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 2: I'm fully admitting that I'm about to steal a bit 114 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: from how Sparks on. 115 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: I love the eighties, Okay, go on. 116 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 2: Actually it might have been Michael Ian Black. It was 117 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: a It was a slight brunette man who was one 118 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 2: of the most popular talking heads on those shows. And 119 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: he was like, I don't think Australians are that confused 120 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 2: by like cars. He just says, a CA, What's a ca? 121 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: And it just it also reminds me of like when 122 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: in thirty Rock when Jenna is a method to in 123 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: character for the Unlicensed Janis Joplin biography and she's in 124 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: Jack's office and she's like, hey, man, what is that 125 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: iron boot. 126 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: In the sky? 127 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 2: They had planes in the sixties Jenna. So it's just 128 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: it is a funny premise that he's just like I mean, 129 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 2: bidays are, but days are confusing.

Have you got requests for that? No? 179 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 2: But I'm saying if someone is like, here's two hundred 180 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 2: bucks like cover you know, Neo Nazis punk fan Screwdriver, 181 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 2: I'd be like, I'll take your money, but I'm not 182 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: going to make that episode. So I don't think you 183 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 2: can request a refund. Maybe you can, I don't know. Anyway, 184 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: I didn't see that coming. 185 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: But yeah, one of the cool things about this bizarre 186 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: medium and this super weird technological time we live in 187 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: now is that so many great people have come into 188 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: our lives through doing this show. And you know, I 189 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: was just texting one of them today about Mama Cass's birthday, 190 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: and yesterday I had a great balbun lunch with another, 191 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: and next week I'm going to see a Paul McCartney 192 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: concert movie with another.

Hell, 201 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: yes it does, Yes it does. We've been slowly but 202 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: surely working our way through them. The Purple Rain two 203 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: parter went out to our friend Andre, and today's episode 204 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: goes out to friends of the Pod Phil, one of 205 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: the greatest friends this show has ever had. He's been 206 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: requesting episodes for literally years now and we have not 207 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: been there for him. So we all on one. We 208 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: hope he enjoys this one well. From a truly insane 209 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: real life story that kind of maybe sort of inspired 210 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: the plot to the tabloid love triangle that emerged from 211 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: the production the Ozzie rock Star who up bring the 212 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: movie to the big screen and all the ways it 213 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: changed the face of tourism for an entire continent. Here 214 00:10:51,640 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: is everything you didn't know about Crocodile Dundee. It's truth. 215 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: What does that mean? I keep seeing that. Don't know. 216 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: Oh okay, I don't know anything. 217 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: Half my Australian slang just comes from like a single 218 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: YouTube video of a guy ranting about Australia. Day. 219 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's like their fourth of July. 220 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 2: Right, wasn't the at me country, Get at me country, 221 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: get at me country. 222 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Wasn't he succulent Chinese male guy Australian? Or was in 223 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: Australia and he was English? 224 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: He did not have an Australian accent. No, he had 225 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: like a beautiful like King's English. Or he received pronunciation 226 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: boarding school boys in Australia. Sure, why not? 227 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: He just died recently? 228 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, and that's sad RP to that man. 229 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: Well. For years, Paul Hogan claimed that his fish out 230 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: of Water story of an Australian bushman in the Big 231 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: City was inspired by his own first trip to New 232 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: York in the early eighties, a time when apparently Australian 233 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: accents were relatively uncommon. Despite the fact that Greece had 234 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: just come out. Apparently, New Yorkers assumed that Paul was Scottish, 235 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: which would have made him the world's tennis Scotsman. 236 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: We are such a dumb people, He. 237 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: Apparently really did walk around New York saying good day 238 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: to all the New Yorkers, which is a hilarious image 239 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: for a city that had recently been terrorized by the 240 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: son of Sam. Yeah. 241 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: I mean it wasn't a great time to be weird 242 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 2: and super friendly in New York. 243 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes. As Paul Hogan later told the BBC, 244 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: I felt like an alien from another planet. Some of 245 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: the bushy guys I know would feel even more out 246 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: of place. There's a myth that there's a real crocodile Dundee, 247 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: but there isn't. Well, Paul, most of Australia would beg 248 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: to differ, though Paul Hogan would deny it. Many believe 249 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: that the character of Mick Crocodile Dundee was based on 250 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: the astonishing true life story of an Australian man named 251 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: rod ansel rod had become something of a folk hero 252 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: in Australia. After we survived, I have more than seven 253 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: weeks on a small island at the mouth of a 254 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: crocodile infested river in the remote Northern Territory. The incident 255 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: occurred in nineteen seventy seven, when he was sailing down 256 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: the Fitzmorris River. To this day, it's unclear exactly why 257 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: he was doing this. 258 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: I should do I have a do we have hang on, 259 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 2: I gotta drum up some ambience you can have like 260 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: a didgerido in the background. 261 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: Let me just just go an outback commercial. 262 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, that's a passable, but that's a kucku barra. No, 263 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: it is also part of my new noise project. You 264 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 2: should throw a bunch of reaver on that, Okay. 265 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: To this day, it's unclear why Rod Ansel was on 266 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: the river in the first place. He would claim it 267 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: was a fishing trip, but as his Wikipedia reads, he 268 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: was not specific about his plans, only telling his then 269 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: girlfriend Lorraine that he would be back in a few months. 270 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: Ansel's motor boat was then capsized and sunk by quote 271 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: something big. He would later sensationally claim that it was 272 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: a whale, and have also read that it was a crocodile. 273 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: It's definitely a crocodile. 274 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: The river is mile I went and checked because I 275 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 2: was like, that sounds implausible, and sure enough, there are 276 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 2: whales around the different coast of Australia, but that river 277 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: is so far inland it must have been an idiot 278 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: of a whale to get lost, or he was a 279 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: bad sailor and he hit nothing and he got that's 280 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: also equally like that. 281 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: It's whatever the case. The boat sank and Rod jumped 282 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: into a dinghy and salvaged his two eight week old 283 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: bull terriers. No idea why he brought two puppies on 284 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: this expedition, A rifle, a knife, some canned food and bedding. 285 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: The dinghy washed ashore on a small island at the 286 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: mouth of the river, and Ansel slept in between the 287 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: roots of a tree, just out of reach of crocodiles, 288 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: but up close and personal with a brown tree snake 289 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: without I mean drinking water. Ansel had to catch wild 290 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: cattle and suck their blood to keep them hydrated. 291 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 2: Oh that's normal, that's what the Mongols did. 292 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, and this is truly insane. He caught bees 293 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: and tied threads to their bodies so he could follow 294 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: them to their hives and obtain honey to wide'm nourished. 295 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: Isn't that that's insane. At one point, Rod shot a 296 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: sixteen foot crocodile whose head he kept as a souvenir. 297 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: They're good eats too, I don't mind, really mind crocodile? 298 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, have you had it? What's it taste to day? 299 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 2: There's a place in my my college town that did 300 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 2: fried crocodile bites. It was like the New Orleans bar. 301 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 2: I've had crocodile jerky, and I don't really like it. 302 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: I think you do have to deep I think you 303 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: got to just deep fry him. But you know, I 304 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 2: don't defry anything tastes good. What can SHA deep fry 305 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 2: these days? 306 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: Hell? Yeah, brother, that's a NASCAR baby. Rod roamed for 307 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: seven weeks. Apparently it was one hundred and twenty miles 308 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: from the nearest settlement, and he basically assumed that he 309 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: was running out the clock and would die where he was. 310 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: But then he stumbled on two Aboriginal stockman and their boss, 311 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: who led him to safety, or so he claimed, Grand 312 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: of salt, Grain of salt. According to ron Ansell, he 313 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: initially intended to downplays ordeal, fearing that his recklessness would 314 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: upset his mother. Oh yeah, remember that all? Remember that? 315 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know, I read ahead. 316 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 1: Once the media got ahold of his story, however, it 317 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: took on a life of its own. He was dubbed 318 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: the modern day Robinson Crusoe. Journalist Robert Milliken would say 319 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: of Ansel, he was charming. He seems to have never 320 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: worn shoes, even when traveling on aircraft ew and staying 321 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: in city hotels. At the height of his fame, the 322 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: press went absolutely mad over his story, and no one 323 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: seemed to mind that the details grew even more incredible. 324 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: Rod would publish a memoir in nineteen eighty entitled to 325 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: Fight the Wild, which was always viewed very skeptically by 326 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: locals of Australia's rugged top end, and many wondered why 327 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: he went fishing alone in such a dangerous area, which 328 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: is a great question. Privately, Rod confided to friends that 329 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: he wasn't fishing, but he was actually illegally poaching crocodiles, 330 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: which would maybe explain a lot of why he was 331 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: so cagy about all this. 332 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 2: He can't poach crocodiles. They're reptiles. They just like grow 333 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:27,959 Speaker 2: from the earth for dinosaurs. Dude, that's that's not poaching. 334 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 2: That's like a fair match between man and beast. It's 335 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 2: not like a white tailed deer. Yeah, I guess if 336 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 2: you have a gun. But you know, still, the. 337 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: Man was always good for a quote. Including this gem 338 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: which seems designed to remind people that he's Australian. Can 339 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: you do an Australian accent? Can you read this? I 340 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: can't do it. 341 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 2: It's so mine just falls apart. But let me see, 342 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: let me. 343 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: See if I try try it out here, I'll highlight 344 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: it for you. 345 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 2: All the blokes up in this country you work with, 346 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: cattle ringer, his stockmen, bull catches, whatever, all of them 347 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 2: have really narrow shaves all the time. It's getting it's 348 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 2: edging into New Zealand. I can only sustain it for 349 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: like a phrase or two. But they never talk about it. No, 350 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 2: that's just offensive. Sorry Stirlians. I think the opinion is 351 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 2: that if you come through in one piece and you're 352 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 2: still alive, then nothing else matters. 353 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:25,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 354 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 2: Then he says, it's like going out to shoot a kangaroo. 355 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 2: You don't come back and say you missed by half 356 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 2: an inch. He either got him or you didn't. So 357 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: that's how I looked at it until the paper got 358 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: ahold of the story and that changed a lot of things. 359 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: Very good, very good. Rod Ansell was interviewed by the 360 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: legendary British broadcaster Michael Parkinson. Parky to our beloved British listeners. 361 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: They'll be very familiar with him. And Ansel attended this 362 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: interview barefoot and admitted to sleeping on the floor of 363 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: the luxury hotel what the producers had booked him into 364 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: because he was more comfortable there. I'm sorry, good care, 365 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: come on guy, And he also shared the fact that 366 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: he was mystified by the bidet well, the whole sleeping 367 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: on the floor thing and the whole bidet confusion or 368 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: two details that was surfacing the Crocodile Dundee film. I mean, 369 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: say what you will about this Ansel guy. He and 370 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: his family would apparently live under a canvas sheet with 371 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: no electricity or running water, communicating by radio and cooking 372 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: over a campfire. So maybe the bed was a little 373 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: too foreign form after all. 374 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like you can get away with a 375 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 2: lot of stuff in Australia because people were just like, yeah, 376 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 2: that makes sense. 377 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: Sure, I buy that a ruthlessly practical people. 378 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 2: It's really funny to me because the there's this Johnny 379 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: Cash record I have called minas Hell, which is about 380 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 2: it's like Western ballads, and in the liner notes of it, 381 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: he claims to have prepared for this record by let 382 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: me see if it knew Johnny Cash sleeping under mesquite 383 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 2: and in gullies, sitting for hours beneath a man's and 384 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 2: nightA bush an ancient Indian burial ground, and breathing the 385 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 2: west wind and hearing the tails. It tells only to 386 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 2: those who listen that he also added that he ate 387 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 2: mesquite beans and squeezed the water from a barrel cactus, 388 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: learned how to throw a bowie knife and kill a 389 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,479 Speaker 2: jack rabbit at forty yards, and was once saved by 390 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 2: a forest ranger lying flat on my back starving. 391 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: So is that where we get that picture of Johnny 392 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: Cash with cake all over his face afterwards? Is that 393 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: the aftermath? No? 394 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 2: But I mean the famous thing about Johnny Cash, it's 395 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 2: so funny, is that I believe this was the same year, 396 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: or like within one year of him burning down like 397 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 2: an enormous chunk of California forest and like killing half 398 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: the condors that were alive in the world at that point. 399 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 2: And then in court he said, I don't give I 400 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 2: don't give a damn about your filthy, dirty buzzards. 401 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: Is that the quote something like that, Yeah, shades of 402 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: Charlton Heston and landed of the apes. 403 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly. 404 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if anybody's built up like the appropriate sort 405 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: of karma to kill half the condors, it's kind of 406 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: Johnny Cash, right, Yeah, who else? 407 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: Give it to James Brown? Sure, it's the hardest working 408 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: man show business. Let him kill a couple of condors. True, Yeah, 409 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: you really would. 410 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: Have be funny. 411 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 2: It was Brian Wilson that would have shut him down 412 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 2: for forever. God, we could we could have been spared 413 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 2: the entirety of the Mike Love era if he had 414 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 2: just killed well, no, I got dark. If he just snapped, 415 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 2: you know, in the right room with the right guy. 416 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: Sorry, you know, the Mike Love story about him in 417 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: the early seventies where he was just on this our 418 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: front of the pod door will remind me of more 419 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: of the finer points of this. But he basically like 420 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: went on like a juice fast and just like didn't 421 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: sleep for days and meditated and then like led. I 422 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: believe the police were involved with some kind of high 423 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: speed chase and he just completely freaked out. Good for him, 424 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: and he blamed it. He blamed it on his quote 425 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: tainted Wilson blood because he's Brian Wilson's cousin. That's a 426 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: good band name. I might have to use that tainted 427 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: Bullson Blood. Yeah, that's your new EP. 428 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. So it would be logical to assume that this 429 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: tailor made for the Zeitgeist story, complete with very specific 430 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 2: elements that would turn up in the film inspired Crocodile Dundee, 431 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 2: But Paul Hogan has never copped to it, which part 432 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 2: of me is like, never let him see you blink. 433 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 2: Pardon is also like a you're bad man, you garbage human, 434 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 2: because this made rad Ansel extremely bitter, and he's somewhat 435 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 2: understandably felt entitled to some royalties or at least recognition, 436 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 2: which would never be forthcoming. And after the global success 437 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 2: of the film, Ansel would eventually take Hogan to court 438 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 2: in an attempt to get a piece of the sweet 439 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: sweet Dundee cash. So the case was rejected, and then 440 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 2: things went from bad. 441 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: To worse for old Ronnie. 442 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 2: Fame took its predictable toll on his h I'm going 443 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 2: to do the behind the music the music bed shifts 444 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 2: into a minor chord. Fame took its predictable toll on 445 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 2: Ansell's personal life and his marriage soon imploded. By nineteen 446 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 2: ninety two, he was convicted of stealing cattle and assaulting 447 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 2: the owner of a ranch. He moved onto a parcel 448 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 2: of land owned by his new girlfriend, a former tour guide, 449 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: where he started growing his own marijuana and injecting speed 450 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 2: with what one outlet describes as a vengeance, leading to 451 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 2: increasingly regular incidents of drug induced psychosis. That's not fair 452 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 2: to drugs, could just be regular psychosis. He became increasingly paranoid, 453 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: blaming his problems on a government program culling wild buffalo 454 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 2: to decrease tuberculosis in the cattle industry. Now Ansel had 455 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 2: been hunting wild buffalo for part of his living ever 456 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: since he was a teen, and he began to believe 457 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 2: that the police and the government were conspiring against him. 458 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 2: His new girlfriend didn't do much to help. She told 459 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: him that her family had been members of a secret 460 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 2: medieval fraternity, and that as a child, she had witnessed 461 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: the sacrifice of young girls that were quote brought out 462 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: of the woods to be bound, raped and slaughtered. It's 463 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 2: actually pretty plausible, really, if you read some of the 464 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 2: weird shit I do. 465 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, can you elaborate? You know? 466 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 2: This is that whole David McGowan thing about serial killers 467 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: and the elaborate web of international one percent pedophilia that 468 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 2: sprung from it or because of it. I lost the 469 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 2: plot a little on that one, but clearly well both 470 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: of these people were on edge as it were, as 471 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: it were in the parlance of the times. It got 472 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 2: worse when they saw or claimed to see three bow 473 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: hunters dressed in camouflage with night vision goggles near their 474 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 2: bush camp. This and the meth didn't help. I mean, 475 00:24:59,200 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 2: if you saw. 476 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: Three camouflaged bow hunters outside your campground, I would. 477 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 2: Assume they were hunting. Sure, the man was a poacher 478 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 2: and hunter his whole life, and he just sees other 479 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 2: people with better outfits and flips out. But it was 480 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 2: definitely the mat. 481 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: I see people with better outfits and I flip out. Two. 482 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: This all ended in tragedy. That's not a great segue 483 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: in August nineteen ninety nine, when rod Ansell died in 484 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: a drug fueled shootout that left one police officer dead 485 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: and other civilians badly wounded. 486 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 2: Hell yeah, it dude's rock that's NASCAR baby. 487 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: In the days leading up to his death, neighbors heard 488 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: him ranting that the Freemasons were conspiring to kidnap his 489 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: two adult sons. Plausible, okay. Ansel wounded two men in 490 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: a shooting spree on the night of August second night, 491 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: ninety nine before disappearing into the bush. The incident is 492 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: described in riveting detail on a twenty fourteen Herald's Sun 493 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: article by Ellie Turner. Ansel fired six shots at a 494 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: caravan or RV on Kentish Road. Resident David Hobden jumped 495 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: into his truck, armed with his double barrel shoddy and 496 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: went to investigate the shootings. He lost an eye when 497 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: Ansel put a bullet through the windscreen of his truck. 498 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: That's sat.

He would 558 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: later say, the only verbal communication I had with the 559 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: gunman was when I was reloading the shotgun for the 560 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: first time. I called out to him to put his 561 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: weapons down. He called back, You're all dead.

The four wheel drive rolled when the 566 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: second car crashed into it, Unable to stop in time. 567 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: Ansel got up on one knee and began lining up 568 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: the cops who were crawling out of the vehicle. But 569 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: this rookie cop, Constable J. D. O'Brien, got a clear shot. 570 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: The autopsy showed thirty three bullet wounds and grazes to 571 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: Ansell's body, Two were fatal, one shot ripped through his 572 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: order he fell face down in the dirt. The real 573 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: mystery is the fact that rod Ansel had apparently escaped 574 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: the roadblocks by clinging to the back of a train 575 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: so metal, which would have essentially allowed him to live 576 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: forever in the bush, but instead he came back to 577 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: fight the cops. But then again, you gotta have goals. 578 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: Then again, this mystery is likely solved by the autopsy, 579 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: which showed that he was very high on meth amphetamine. 580 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: Rod Ansel was given a full aboriginal burial in Arnheim, Land. 581 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 2: Citation needed. 582 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: A strange sad end to the man who is most 583 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: likely the real crocodile dum dee.

Producer John Cornell would 831 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: explain that the target audience for Crocodile Dundee is the 832 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: eight to eighty age group quote a demographic like a 833 00:44:56,280 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: double barreled shotgun shoty. Paul Hogan was quoted as saying, 834 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot about Dundee that we all think we're like. 835 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: We meaning Australians, but we're not because we live in Sydney. 836 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: He's a mythical outback Australian who does exist in part 837 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,280 Speaker 1: the frontiersman who walks through the bush picking up snakes 838 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 1: and throwing them aside, living off the land, who can 839 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,360 Speaker 1: ride horses and chop down trees and has that simple, friendly, 840 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 1: laid back philosophy. It's like the image the Americans have 841 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: of us, so why not give them one. We've always 842 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,479 Speaker 1: been desperately short of folk heroes in this country. Ned 843 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: Kelly is pathetic. Some are the bush rangers. Ned Kelly 844 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 1: catches trays from Paul Hogan. Yeah, the script for Crocodile 845 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: Dundee was written by Hogan and his manager John Cournell, 846 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 1: who produced the thing himself. This is really they're kept 847 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 1: in house. 848 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 2: Only for him. 849 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:55,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. 850 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 2: Ned Kelly is like a Jesse James kind of figure 851 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 2: in Australia. His Wikipedia page has one of the most 852 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 2: like He looks like a guy who works at a 853 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 2: barber shop in Brooklyn. He's incredible beer. 854 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 1: He's played by Mick Jagger, right, perfect hair. 855 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 2: Well, don't hold bad against him, and many people think 856 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 2: his image is mushroomed into this like Robin Hood kind 857 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 2: of situation in Australia. But there are a lot of 858 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,839 Speaker 2: people who just say he was like a violent outlaw. 859 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 2: But most importantly to my interests, he is famous for 860 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 2: wearing a homemade suit of armor bulletproof vest in his 861 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 2: last standoff with police was a bulletproof Given that it 862 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 2: was his last stand up with police, I'm guess he 863 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 2: was bet attesting it. He was also a bare knuckle boxer. 864 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 2: He thought a guy over a chestnut mare and one 865 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 2: in twenty rounds. You know, I mean, I'd feel like 866 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 2: somebody to feel like well, I guess you could say 867 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 2: on Dillinger. A lot of people do, but those people 868 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:05,879 Speaker 2: are wrong. 869 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: Have you seen a picture of his homemade suit of armor? Yeah, 870 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:14,800 Speaker 1: it's sick. Yeah. I mean I don't see any eye holes, 871 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: which I guess would say to reason. I do see 872 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 1: a lot of bullet dance. So I guess it didn't 873 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 1: do that bad. 874 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he didn't know, he didn't. 875 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, let's try. That's cool though. 876 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 2: I mean the battle lasted a half an hour wow, 877 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 2: and he was only brought down by two shotgun blasts 878 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 2: to his unprotected legs. He had twenty eight wounds and 879 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:43,760 Speaker 2: then they found him. 880 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 881 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 2: So Ned Kelly was the subject of the first dramatic 882 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 2: feature length film ever, The Story of the Yes, the 883 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 2: Story of the Kelly Gang, in nineteen o six. 884 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:05,760 Speaker 1: Ever, not just in Australia but ever. Ever, that's wild regard. 885 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 2: Well, uh, because it's the seventeen minutes of it that 886 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 2: still survived. But it is u's pretty long fribed in 887 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 2: its it's literally enshrined in UNESCO, which is the United 888 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 2: States Nations Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, for being 889 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 2: the world's first full length narrative feature film. You Paul Hogan, 890 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 2: you don't have that keep Kelly's name out of your mouth. 891 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: So, in short, you disagree with Paul Hogan's assessment that 892 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 1: Ned Kelly was pathetic. 893 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, everybody needs folk heroes. And it's also it's 894 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 2: also rich of Paul Hogan to be like, yeah, bad 895 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 2: other guy, this guy who's life I stolen out of 896 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 2: any money for it. That's the guy. I'm the guy, 897 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 2: you man. It's just like somebody bold basically being like 898 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,840 Speaker 2: like making a thinly veiled biopic of like Jesse James 899 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 2: and then being like, no, it's not based on him. 900 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I was from when I went to New York. 901 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: Come on. Paul Hogan and his business manager John Cornell 902 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,240 Speaker 1: sketched out a ten million dollar budget, which was fairly 903 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 1: modest even for the time. Crocodile Dundy was unusual because 904 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,840 Speaker 1: it didn't go through the Australian Film Commission, which usually 905 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: supplies financing in exchange for some degree of creative meddling. 906 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: Instead of going for a few big investors, they targeted 907 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: a lot of small donations for many just like us. 908 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's also a big B movie horror movie crowdfunding situation. 909 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 2: Like Sam Raimi, the initial the rights to the first 910 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 2: Evil Dead, and I believe largely why the Second Evil 911 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 2: Dead is basically a shot for shot remake of the 912 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 2: first one. The rights are disaster because he would they 913 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 2: were just going around to anybody being like, we have 914 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars, you'll be a producers. A lot of 915 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 2: dentists in particular. That was his. That was like one 916 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:00,439 Speaker 2: of the things he's been on record is saying, yeah, 917 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 2: we went to a lot of dentists. They have they 918 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 2: have a lot of money. 919 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:07,800 Speaker 1: They have a lot of money in there and they're depressed. Yeah, yeah, huh. Interesting. 920 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 1: In the pre go fund me days, to promote this 921 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: project to potential investors, they gave an interview to the 922 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: Australian business magazine Ridges. How'd you say that, Rydgeses Rogs. 923 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: I mean that just sounds like you're saying it with 924 00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 1: an Australian accent, Yeah Rogers. Okay, all right, well there 925 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 1: you go. The articles read how's this for Kisman? The 926 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 1: article is read by Paul Hogan's childhood friend who just 927 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: happened to run an investment bank. This bank agreed to 928 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:43,399 Speaker 1: underwrite seven million dollars of this ten million dollar feature. 929 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 2: Sake. 930 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: I know, I know, what is that? 931 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:48,720 Speaker 2: An eighty five money? 932 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 1: I would say seven million dollars I would put it 933 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 1: at I'm gonna say prices right rules without going over, 934 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say twenty one million. I know it's Australian dollars. 935 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,359 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's Australian dollars though, I don't 936 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 1: really know what that means. It's not a real currency. 937 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,280 Speaker 1: They paid in a crocodile meat teeth. 938 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 2: They say that's the cristis I say. 939 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: Eighty five eighty five. Yeah, I'm gonna say it's close 940 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: to twenty million today. 941 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,320 Speaker 2: Twenty million, eight hundred and eighty six. 942 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: Dollars, I said twenty one. So I went over. I 943 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 1: lost my prices, right, rules, I lost, but that's pretty close. 944 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:21,920 Speaker 2: I didn't guess I abstained. 945 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 1: How big of you. Hogan and John Cronell each kicked 946 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: in six hundred thousand dollars apiece and the rest of 947 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 1: the budget, so some two million dollars would come from 948 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:40,560 Speaker 1: fourteen hundred small investors, one of whom was the frontman 949 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 1: of Australian rock band In Excess, Michael Hutchins. Do you 950 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 1: have anything you'd like to share about Michael. 951 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 2: Hutchins handsome, handsome guy. 952 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's like an Australian Jim Morrison, but. 953 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 2: In excess, a reportedly great band. That one song is good, Yeah, 954 00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:57,919 Speaker 2: I know that one song. 955 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: It's a good song. Yeah. 956 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 2: He died cranking it, cranking the hog and the news, 957 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 2: as so many of us have. 958 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true, I because I always 959 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 1: assume that. And then before we taped today, I went 960 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 1: and looked that up and the only person who claimed 961 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 1: that was his I believe. I believe A strange girlfriend 962 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:23,799 Speaker 1: at the time, Paula Yates. 963 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that makes sense, something an X would say. 964 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: But then there was some kind of because she was 965 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 1: dating Bob Geldoff at the time and they had kids together. 966 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 1: There was love triangle and then and what did what 967 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,959 Speaker 1: was it drugs? She died of drugs not too long 968 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 1: after talking about her I don't give it. 969 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 2: He was. 970 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: No they I mean, they just said it could have 971 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,280 Speaker 1: been depression and suicide. She said as much when interviewed 972 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:55,319 Speaker 1: by the police, but then later when speaking to some 973 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,080 Speaker 1: journalists or news outlet, she changed the story and said 974 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 1: that it was autoerotic asphyxiation. But she's the only one 975 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: I think he's claimed that. I think, well, that's sad 976 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 1: and I regret the error. But but we'll never know. 977 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,840 Speaker 1: But thankfully before he went there's really no segue. I 978 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 1: can't there's I can't get back to this in a 979 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: way that. 980 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 2: Is sucks to man. I mean, I just have to 981 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 2: assume that's true. And you know what, I just did 982 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 2: a whole bit slandering that man, and like, imagine dying 983 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 2: and your ex is like, yeah, he killed himself wanking 984 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:36,240 Speaker 2: it in the noose, and that's lodged in someone's brain 985 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 2: thirty years later forty years later, My god, what a wait? 986 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:42,399 Speaker 1: What I mean? 987 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 2: Hey, at least we're talking about him, right, No such 988 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 2: thing as bad publicity. 989 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: We aren't talking about his songs though. Yeah. As a musician, 990 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,800 Speaker 1: I'd like to know how you feel about that. Would 991 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,920 Speaker 1: you rather be remember for the songs you write or 992 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:55,760 Speaker 1: for the way that you didn't die? 993 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 2: I mean, does anyone want to be remembered for the 994 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 2: way that they didn't die? 995 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,840 Speaker 1: Is that great? Great? I think I forgot it was. 996 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,799 Speaker 1: I mustn't Frankie Boyle. That sounds like Frankie Boyle.

Livington John No 1003 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 1: Gibson maybe gave something.

He's like Jim Morris that 1016 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 2: he's like one to two of the spirits of the 1017 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,240 Speaker 2: Native Americans. Probably flew in me.

I mean, these people were fabulously wealthy 1020 00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:42,920 Speaker 2: and lived out their dreams and talented. We're banking one 1021 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,239 Speaker 2: money still alive. We're begging for money from strangers. So 1022 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 2: but still, we've ragged on a lot of dead guys 1023 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 2: and we'll continue to business as usual in excess. 1024 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 1: Michael Hutchins Band You Remember, provided a song for the 1025 00:55:56,440 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 1: soundtrack for Crocodile don the a different world.

I did, however, 1033 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,399 Speaker 1: learn that the meaning of the refrain where Beard does 1034 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: flow and men chunder has a meaning I didn't realize. 1035 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 1: Apparently to chunder means to vomit.

I like Waltson 1070 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 1: Matilda a lot. I can't say Rolf Harris because he's 1071 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 1: been like me too in a major way. But there's 1072 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 1: a song called Sunrise which is very pretty, which uses 1073 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:32,439 Speaker 1: aboriginal instruments because that was kind of his thing.

We'll be right back with more too 1084 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 2: much information after these messages. 1085 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 1: All right, now, let's move on to the production Crocodile Dundee. Obviously, 1086 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 1: Paul Hogan is gonna be the titular character, but for 1087 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 1: the role of his love interest, the writer Sue Charlton. 1088 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 1: They met with Linda Kozlowski, a Juilliard classmate of Val Kilmer, 1089 00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 1: who'd appeared on Broadway with Dustin Hoffman in Death of 1090 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 1: a Salesman. 1091 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 2: You imagine you go from doing Death of a Salesman 1092 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,919 Speaker 2: on Broadway to like showing your ass for this Australian 1093 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 2: tourist movie. I about that girl on some rough days, 1094 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,560 Speaker 2: being like, oh yeah in here. 1095 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, she uh was the only American on the set 1096 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:56,520 Speaker 1: and a blonde woman. 1097 00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 2: Good lord. I'm surprised she survived. 1098 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,000 Speaker 1: Well, she had ed up marrying Paul Hogan, so and 1099 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:06,000 Speaker 1: I'm happy she survived. Yeah. Yeah, Not only was she 1100 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 1: the only American, but she was the only American living 1101 01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 1: in a hut in the outpack. For a significant portion 1102 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 1: of the production, Crocodile Dundee was filmed on location in 1103 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 1: Australia and New York City, and per Travel and Leisure, 1104 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 1: the outback scenes were shot in the isolated Kakadu National Park, 1105 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 1: which is roughly the size of Germany. 1106 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 2: Good god, which I'm sure. 1107 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure we could pick a state that's like bigger 1108 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 1: than Germany to compare the size of the park too. 1109 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: It's something about being the size of Germany feels very 1110 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 1: like impressive, like an achievement. 1111 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, it's better than being bigger than France. 1112 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 1: I mean honestly kinda. Yeah, this park was located in 1113 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 1: the Northern Territory of Australia. We should have been home 1114 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 1: to a uranium mine, which I know it's probably not dangerous, 1115 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 1: but it just seems like it is dangerous. 1116 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 2: It's just they killed John Wayne filming in irradiated locations. 1117 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:07,760 Speaker 2: Oh well that was that was because they did a 1118 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 2: bomb tests there. This is just like mined from uranium. Yeah, 1119 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 2: isn't that like plutonium. It's like like like the Russians 1120 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 2: drop like one ten thousandth of a milligram into people's 1121 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,360 Speaker 2: coffee and they die horribly of massive tumors and organ failure. 1122 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: But I'm sure that has to be like somehow like 1123 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:29,640 Speaker 1: made unstable by combining it with something. And I'm sure 1124 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 1: it's when it's like taken out of the earth. All right. 1125 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll google it, I'll keep reading. See what 1126 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 1: you get. Go go choogle it. Craig Bowles, the Australian 1127 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 1: Location scout for Crocodile Dundee, selected the isolated location because, quote, 1128 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 1: it showcased a part of Australia that I don't think 1129 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: had been seen and it was inherent and Paul's nature. 1130 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: He seemed to fit into the landscape perfectly because they 1131 01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: were so far from hotels. However, everyone on the cast 1132 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:00,439 Speaker 1: and crew slept in huts left behind by the Pan 1133 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 1: Continental Mining Company. Despite the dilapidated condition of the camp, 1134 01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: the cast and crew made the best of it, spending 1135 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:11,760 Speaker 1: their nights around the campfire, singing songs in a summer 1136 01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:13,080 Speaker 1: camp like atmosphere. 1137 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 2: Well, the Ranger uranium mine was operational until twenty twenty one, 1138 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 2: so they were filming near an active uranium mine. 1139 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 1: I just can't imagine uranium being pulled out of the 1140 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 1: earth being dangerous. I feel like we had to do 1141 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 1: something to it. 1142 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 2: Let me just scroll down to safety breaches and controversy. Okay, 1143 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,360 Speaker 2: the Government of Australia has documented over two hundred environmental 1144 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 2: impacts since nineteen seventy nine. Great majority of these were minor, 1145 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,840 Speaker 2: but oh, here's one. In May two thousand and five, 1146 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:49,200 Speaker 2: the company was convicted for breaching environmental guidelines, the first 1147 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 2: such prosecution of a mining company in the Northern Territory, 1148 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:58,920 Speaker 2: relating to accidental radiological exposure to employees radioactively contaminated process 1149 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:05,040 Speaker 2: water cools. The Rods Rods had entered into the drinking 1150 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 2: water supply. Sure dozens of mine employees were found to 1151 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 2: have showered in and consumed water containing four hundred times 1152 01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 2: the legal limit of uranium. Here's another one. A mechanic 1153 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:19,400 Speaker 2: in Jabiru opened the engine bay. He was unaware of 1154 01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:21,960 Speaker 2: the nature of mud and dirt which fell on the floor. 1155 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:24,800 Speaker 2: Court testimony said in the following weeks he had swept 1156 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 2: material outside of his shed where his children played and 1157 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:32,480 Speaker 2: built sand castles in mud contaminated with uranium. Jesus about 1158 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 2: two mega leaders of potentially polluted water came out in 1159 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 2: two thousand and two. Two thousand and seven, water breached 1160 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 2: a retention pond. In May twenty ten, it was reported 1161 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,680 Speaker 2: that a dam may have released millions of leaders into 1162 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 2: radioactive water into World Heritage listed wetlands and Kakadu National Park, 1163 01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 2: home to about five hundred Aboriginal people. In November twenty thirteen, 1164 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 2: four drums previously used to transport yellow cake were found 1165 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,520 Speaker 2: in a rural area of Darwin. The company recovered the 1166 01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:03,360 Speaker 2: drums amid concerns about the tenship spread of radioactive contamination. Yeah, no, guys. 1167 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 2: In twenty thirteen, there was an incident at a mine 1168 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 2: inside Cockerter National Park with about a million liters of 1169 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:13,600 Speaker 2: slurry comprising crushed or and acid believed to have been spilled. 1170 01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 1: Sure, but aside from that, Missus Lincoln, I just I 1171 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 1: can't imagine that like pulling uranium out of the earth now, 1172 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: I like really want to get to the bottom of this. 1173 01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 1: Our uranium mine's dangerous. Although the uranium itself is barely radioactive, 1174 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,680 Speaker 1: the ore which is mind must be regarded as potentially 1175 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 1: hazardous due to uranium's decay products. 1176 01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:45,920 Speaker 2: All right, fine, I biggrudgingly concede this point that I 1177 01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 2: made a weird wedge issue of all right, look at 1178 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 2: you go into bat for mining concerns. 1179 01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:56,920 Speaker 1: And you're going to bat for cop killers. Yeah, hell yeah, 1180 01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 1: that sounds right. 1181 01:04:57,640 --> 01:04:58,600 Speaker 2: I hope she sees this. 1182 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:06,360 Speaker 1: King Well, it stands to reason that this unforgiving terrain 1183 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 1: was teeming with wildlife that the uranium hadn't killed. Fittingly, 1184 01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:13,800 Speaker 1: there were crocodiles all over the set of Crocodile Dundee, 1185 01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 1: and an armed guard was hired to protect the production 1186 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:23,280 Speaker 1: from what was referred to euphemistically as crocodile interference. I 1187 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 1: guess it's not really euphemism. I guess it's pretty literal. 1188 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 1: It's still great choice of phrase. As Paul Hogan would 1189 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:32,760 Speaker 1: later say in his own inimitable fashion, we had guys 1190 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 1: up in trees with rifles just in case one crocodile 1191 01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: came along and ruined everything or enhanced everything. Yeah right. 1192 01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:45,680 Speaker 1: There was also a crocodile wrangler on set. This is 1193 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 1: presumably because Paul Hogan had planned on using a real 1194 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 1: crocodile for close ups during the scene where Sue was 1195 01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:53,000 Speaker 1: attacked as she was cooling off in the. 1196 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 2: Water, aforementioned eighties speedo scene. 1197 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: Ah yes, yes, But ultimately they opted for a forty 1198 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: five thousand dollar do animatronic crocodile, which proved so lifelike 1199 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:06,800 Speaker 1: that someone on the set reported the crew to the 1200 01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 1: authorities as suspected poachers. 1201 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,040 Speaker 2: Hell yeah, movie magic. 1202 01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:16,160 Speaker 1: The water buffalo used in the scene where crocodile Dundee 1203 01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:20,600 Speaker 1: mesmerizes it was in fact real and apparently was a 1204 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:24,000 Speaker 1: real diva. Paul Hogan would say that the scene took 1205 01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 1: hours to shoot. If the buffalo doesn't want to do anything, 1206 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 1: it weighs two thousand pounds, and you know it doesn't, 1207 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 1: so you have to hang around the Asian buffalo in 1208 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 1: Australia with the eight feet of horns. That scene took 1209 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,600 Speaker 1: all day. It's like he said, I'll just sit here 1210 01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:42,960 Speaker 1: and you can't do anything about it. I've also seen 1211 01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:45,720 Speaker 1: it sighted in various listicles that the animal was drugged. 1212 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:49,440 Speaker 2: I just want everyone to know that. Jordan title this 1213 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 2: New York Bidets and Nights Thank You, said that the 1214 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 2: New York scenes were slightly easier to film. Some scenes 1215 01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:00,919 Speaker 2: were filmed at the Plaza Hotel, but not the ones 1216 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 2: where Dundee is mystified by the bidets. There are no 1217 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:07,520 Speaker 2: bidets at the Plaza, apparently, something the front desk would 1218 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:09,680 Speaker 2: get calls for years asking if they could book the 1219 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 2: Crocodile Dundee room. Sorry, sir, no can do. There are 1220 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 2: no bidets in this establishment. Is that a reference to something? 1221 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:18,440 Speaker 1: No, let's just really assume that's say, it would. 1222 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 2: Be better if you had like a really thick, like honkin' 1223 01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 2: like Hell's kitchen accent. No bidezz that's the cigar chumping executive. 1224 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:29,919 Speaker 2: I'm losing my mind. Funnily enough, the movie though, that's 1225 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 2: playing in Crocodile Dundee's hotel suite is the nineteen sixty 1226 01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:37,840 Speaker 2: five Sam Peckinpah feature Major Dundee starring Charlton Heston. A 1227 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 2: little nod there. Do you know that a young Melissa 1228 01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:43,080 Speaker 2: Joan Hart was originally supposed to appear in the film 1229 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 2: as the little girl who skins her knee in Central 1230 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 2: Park and is miraculously healed by Crocodile. Dundee, I heard 1231 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 2: something about that. Sadly the scene was cut. 1232 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1233 01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 2: They also filmed on location at Vazak's Bar in the 1234 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 2: East Village, which was used with The Godfather too, also 1235 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 2: in the abandoned lower level of the Ninth Avenue subway 1236 01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,160 Speaker 2: station in Brooklyn for the final scenes of the movie. 1237 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:08,840 Speaker 2: And lastly, the damn knife line. Do it with me, now, Jordan, 1238 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:12,720 Speaker 2: that's not a knife this now you didn't do it with. 1239 01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 1: Me, but you started before. 1240 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 2: One, five, six, seven eight. 1241 01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 1: That's not a knife. Yes, nif it's not, it's that 1242 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 1: that's a knife. 1243 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 2: Well, that's a line undered by Mick Crocodile when he 1244 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:33,360 Speaker 2: and Dundee. Dundee, what do you call someone whose name 1245 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 2: is crocodile? 1246 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 1: Croc croc. Yeah, it's a crock That Croc's not bad? Yeah, 1247 01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: all right? Is it Ray Kroc, the founder of McDonald's. 1248 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:47,559 Speaker 2: Yes, it's about differently, but sure when he and Sue 1249 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 2: are being held at knife point by does it really 1250 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 2: even matter? 1251 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:50,559 Speaker 1: Like? 1252 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 2: Where are you talking about that? Everyone knows that scene? 1253 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:57,479 Speaker 2: Would we bother describing it? However, Ken Shady Shade, one 1254 01:08:57,520 --> 01:08:59,559 Speaker 2: of the film's writers, didn't think the line was funny 1255 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,200 Speaker 2: at all, saying it just wasn't funny on paper. He 1256 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 2: was wrong. The knife that was used in the scene, 1257 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 2: unsurprisingly into many, was not a real one, and it 1258 01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 2: was made of rubber. 1259 01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:16,760 Speaker 1: And aluminum aluminium as they say, Yeah, I got good call. 1260 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,880 Speaker 1: After filming was complete, Paul Hogan's manager, John Cornell flew 1261 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:23,360 Speaker 1: to the US to look for a distributor. Per the 1262 01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:26,679 Speaker 1: New York Times, Paramount snapped up the US distribution rights 1263 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:31,200 Speaker 1: of Crocodile Dundee after twentieth Century Fox turned down after 1264 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 1: only watching twenty minutes of it. Later, after the first 1265 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 1: and second Crocodile Dundee movies were huge hits, Cornell gloated 1266 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:41,160 Speaker 1: to The New York Times that this Fox executive was 1267 01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 1: quote extremely rude. I sometimes get pleasure from thinking about 1268 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 1: what the look is like on his face at a 1269 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 1: time like this at Tracks and their Defense. 1270 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:54,280 Speaker 2: Though an Australian movie wasn't exactly an easy sell in 1271 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty six because at the time the biggest Australian 1272 01:09:57,160 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 2: movies were Mad Max and picnict Hanging Rock directed by 1273 01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:03,519 Speaker 2: Peter Weir. There's a someb genre of exploitation movies called 1274 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: osploitation from that basically you're kidding, no not. There's two 1275 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 2: famous ones, in particular, Donald Pleasance is in one of them. 1276 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 1: But what's the like the underlying is it just like 1277 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:20,600 Speaker 1: shootouts in the outback? 1278 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:21,479 Speaker 2: Kind of? 1279 01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:21,800 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1280 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:28,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, So Nicholas Rogue rog who famously directed Performance Manufeld 1281 01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,400 Speaker 2: to Earth and Don't Look Now and The Witches. It's 1282 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 2: always so funny that Nicholas Rogue did The Witches the 1283 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:38,200 Speaker 2: Rolled All adaptation. There's a film called walk About Witches 1284 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 2: about two h white school children who are left defend 1285 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 2: for themselves in the Australian outback. 1286 01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 1: Uh. 1287 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:49,519 Speaker 2: And then there's another one from the same year called 1288 01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:53,320 Speaker 2: Wake in Fright and that is basically just about like 1289 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 2: one dude hanging out with a bunch of insane like 1290 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:02,360 Speaker 2: Australian rednecks. The tagline for this movie is incredible.

After some American test screenings, Paramount made a 1374 01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:33,320 Speaker 1: special international cut of Crocodile Dundee. A similar thing was 1375 01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 1: done to the German made Never Ending Story, basically to 1376 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:40,680 Speaker 1: make the movie dumber. Seven minutes of Crocodile Dundee was 1377 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,639 Speaker 1: cut to quote speed up the pace to the taste 1378 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:47,479 Speaker 1: of the American consumer. As reported by The New York Times, 1379 01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:49,559 Speaker 1: most of the cut screen time came from the first 1380 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 1: half of the film, when Mick Crocodile Dundee showed Sue 1381 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:55,800 Speaker 1: Charlton around the outback of Australia. 1382 01:15:56,040 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 2: Lose the gangage.

Over there's a horizon and 1384 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:10,400 Speaker 2: there's a few of those blokes were killed, the descendants. 1385 01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,360 Speaker 2: They'd been on his land forty thousand years, and then 1386 01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:19,800 Speaker 2: we came here. Fancy of Falster's out I could see 1387 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 2: why no one wanted that committed the screen. 1388 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 1: They also dropped scenes that contain too much Australian slang 1389 01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 1: because they fear that American audiences wouldn't be able to follow. 1390 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:31,120 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, and they cut some f bombs to ensure 1391 01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:34,439 Speaker 1: a PG rating, which is probably why I was allowed 1392 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:35,840 Speaker 1: to see this. Is probably the last time I saw 1393 01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 1: this when I was like PG movie age. Hilariously, Paramount 1394 01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 1: added quotation marks around Crocodile on the posters of the 1395 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 1: movie and the title card so that Americans would understand 1396 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:50,519 Speaker 1: that this was a man's nickname and not a movie 1397 01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:52,160 Speaker 1: about a crocodile. 1398 01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 2: Would be so much better for us about a crocodile, 1399 01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 2: like free Willy, but with a crocodile, or like Gentle 1400 01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 2: with a crocodile. 1401 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 1: That was in the in the Flipper remake in the nineties, 1402 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:07,800 Speaker 1: right he was with who is the kid in that? 1403 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:10,640 Speaker 1: Was that Elijah Wood?

Americannians were already dimly familiar with Paul 1496 01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:43,479 Speaker 2: Hogan due to all of the work he did for 1497 01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 2: the Australian Tourism Board, which he apparently did pro bono 1498 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:48,679 Speaker 2: just in the name of Ozsie Pride. 1499 01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 1: He's the top Australian, He's the Australian of the Year. 1500 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:55,960 Speaker 2: Seventeen years running. The success of Crocodile Dundee revolutionized tourism 1501 01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:59,520 Speaker 2: in Australia, seeing how it was basically one giant advertisement 1502 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 2: for how awesome they are. In twenty sixteen, Peter Hook 1503 01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:08,600 Speaker 2: not that one, but the communications manager at Kakadoo Tourism 1504 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:11,800 Speaker 2: told Travel and Leisure in eighty six Australians hadn't even 1505 01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 2: been to Kakadu, let alone Americans. Basically, Kakadoo is a 1506 01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 2: mining area. Uranium was its biggest mineral. The government actually 1507 01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:22,759 Speaker 2: built a road from Darwin to kakado not for tourism 1508 01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:25,400 Speaker 2: but for mining. I don't know what that last sentence means. 1509 01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:28,920 Speaker 2: The film brought tourists and the area became more accessible 1510 01:23:28,920 --> 01:23:32,360 Speaker 2: with the construction of improved roads.

There's an article in a 1533 01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:51,439 Speaker 2: Guardian by writer named Luke Buckmaster from twenty eighteen that 1534 01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:56,240 Speaker 2: just shows the astonishing breadth of the offense quite offensive 1535 01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:59,080 Speaker 2: things that happened in the film. They'd be for starters 1536 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 2: sue the journalist she is not actually a journalist, but 1537 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:07,240 Speaker 2: working for her boyfriend for her father's paper.

There are comparisons 1539 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:14,120 Speaker 2: made between the indigenous Aboriginal tribes arguing for land rights 1540 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:18,160 Speaker 2: in Australia to Flees arguing over who owns the dog 1541 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 2: they live on, and of course Mick asking sue Charlton's chauffeur, 1542 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,799 Speaker 2: who is played by Reginald vel Johnson aka Carl Winslow 1543 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,320 Speaker 2: from Family Matters and the cool cop from Die Hard 1544 01:25:30,479 --> 01:25:35,160 Speaker 2: what tribe he's from?

Maybe he'd never seen a black person. That 1547 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:47,040 Speaker 2: part I buy. There's also a yeah, there's a trends. 1548 01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:50,400 Speaker 2: There's a moment of outright transphobia. You know, there's a 1549 01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:53,559 Speaker 2: trans woman that Paul Hogan is talking to before a 1550 01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:55,760 Speaker 2: friend pulls him aside and says, I've been trying to 1551 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:59,080 Speaker 2: tell you all night that girl she's a guy. And 1552 01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:03,040 Speaker 2: Dundee grabs the woman in the crotch and points and 1553 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:06,439 Speaker 2: yells a guy dressed up like a shila, how about that? 1554 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:07,240 Speaker 1: Or look at that? 1555 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 2: And the pub explodes into rapturous laughter and applause. 1556 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 1: You know. 1557 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:17,919 Speaker 2: He also he grabs another woman in the art gallery 1558 01:26:18,080 --> 01:26:22,840 Speaker 2: and Sue says, it's okay. He's Australian, of course. Paul 1559 01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 2: Hogan has some enlightened thoughts about this. While discussing Cancel 1560 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 2: culture with the project, he's quoted as saying it's sometimes 1561 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:32,760 Speaker 2: understandable and in some cases stupid. In the case of 1562 01:26:32,800 --> 01:26:35,120 Speaker 2: me and the shows I did, it was never designed 1563 01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:37,920 Speaker 2: to hurt anyone. I just love starting a sentence with. 1564 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:43,000 Speaker 2: In the case of me, I'm taking that per The 1565 01:26:43,040 --> 01:26:45,680 Speaker 2: Daily Mail, Hogan told The Australian, I don't think I 1566 01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 2: ever did anything with any sort of malice. Okay, man, 1567 01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 2: the success we forgot We've got to mention one. Sorry, 1568 01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 2: there's in the sequel. He's trying to talk a suicidal 1569 01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,360 Speaker 2: man down from a leg edge and so he stops 1570 01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:03,920 Speaker 2: this guy from killing himself and then hugs him, and 1571 01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:05,960 Speaker 2: the guy says like something like, well, now I can 1572 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,679 Speaker 2: go back to Steve say he's a gay guy and 1573 01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:13,439 Speaker 2: uh then dundee, let's go in disgust. 1574 01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:15,600 Speaker 1: And does the guy fall off the bridge after that? 1575 01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:17,360 Speaker 1: I don't believe so oh. 1576 01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:22,520 Speaker 2: Oh greatest Living American of the Year character actor Dan Hidaiya. 1577 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, what were you still alive? 1578 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:27,599 Speaker 1: I would have accepted Leslie Nielsen. 1579 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:28,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, goodness. 1580 01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:32,000 Speaker 1: Is he Canadian? He seems like he would be Canadian. Yeah, 1581 01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:34,160 Speaker 1: so well, look he's Canadian. 1582 01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 2: I have a sincere vote, and it's Willy Nelson. I 1583 01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 2: have a sincere vote. Sure, and it's Willy Nelson. 1584 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:44,280 Speaker 1: Okay. The success of Crocodile Dundee proved to be the 1585 01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:47,479 Speaker 1: predictable blessing and a curse for Paul Hogan. In twenty 1586 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:50,639 Speaker 1: twenty two, he told Mark Meets because of the ridiculous 1587 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: success of Dundee, which is still the most successful and 1588 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:56,200 Speaker 1: defended film ever made, it's sort of like, oh, whatever 1589 01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 1: I do next will flop by comparison, so I bother 1590 01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 1: so I mentally sort of retired after the first one. 1591 01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:06,679 Speaker 1: And although Paul Hogan and Lynn Koloski started the nineteen 1592 01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:09,760 Speaker 1: eighty eight follow up, Crocodile Dundee two, it was not 1593 01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:13,040 Speaker 1: well received by critics and failed to out earn the original, 1594 01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: Although it's still made the top five of the box 1595 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,959 Speaker 1: office in nineteen eighty eight, It has a nine percent 1596 01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:23,240 Speaker 1: on Rotten Tomatoes, but Ronald Reagan watched it at Camp 1597 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:24,760 Speaker 1: David and apparently liked it. 1598 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:26,840 Speaker 2: This was during the Middle East Accords. 1599 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:29,600 Speaker 1: So Scott that going for it. At one time in 1600 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:33,680 Speaker 1: the early nineties, Paramount was considering a crossover sequel with 1601 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 1: one of its other Big Eighties franchises, which would have 1602 01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:41,360 Speaker 1: birthed Crocodile Dundee meets Beverly Hills Cop. That is so funny. 1603 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:43,320 Speaker 2: I assumed they would have come up with a better title, 1604 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:45,240 Speaker 2: but I also assumed that they wouldn't have. 1605 01:28:45,520 --> 01:28:48,759 Speaker 1: Yeah no, and it would have been the Avon Costello rule. 1606 01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:51,320 Speaker 2: Just being so funny that Axel is not referred to 1607 01:28:51,439 --> 01:28:55,679 Speaker 2: as anything other than Beverly Hills Cup, like the Hunchback 1608 01:28:55,720 --> 01:28:56,400 Speaker 2: of Notre Dame. 1609 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:02,720 Speaker 1: Ultimately, Murphy vetoed the idea, but then he went on 1610 01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:06,559 Speaker 1: to make Pluto Nash. As you mentioned earlier, Paul Hogan 1611 01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 1: was offered the lead role in Ghost, which eventually went 1612 01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:12,519 Speaker 1: to Patrick Swayzee, and he turned this movie down to 1613 01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 1: star in Almost an Angel, the third installment of the 1614 01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:19,200 Speaker 1: Crocodile Dundee franchise. Two thousand and one's Crocodile Dundee in 1615 01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 1: Los Angeles is so bad that we just assumed not 1616 01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:25,400 Speaker 1: mention it. He was nominated for a Razzie Award for 1617 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:28,559 Speaker 1: Worst Remake or Sequel, but lost out to Tim Burton's 1618 01:29:28,600 --> 01:29:29,559 Speaker 1: Planet of the Apes. 1619 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,040 Speaker 2: Good he did get a marriage out of it, though. 1620 01:29:32,439 --> 01:29:34,760 Speaker 2: There was a love connection made between Paul Hogan and 1621 01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 2: his co star Linda Koslowski, which is hilarious because Roger 1622 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,320 Speaker 2: the God Ebert specifically commented on the lack of romantic 1623 01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:45,599 Speaker 2: chemistry between the two leads. Their union caused a bit 1624 01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:48,679 Speaker 2: of a typically Australian scandal, since Paul was already married 1625 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,360 Speaker 2: to a woman named Noline Edwards, whom he met as 1626 01:29:51,360 --> 01:29:54,240 Speaker 2: a teenager at the pool where he was a lifeguard 1627 01:29:54,280 --> 01:29:57,160 Speaker 2: way back in nineteen fifty eight. He would later say, 1628 01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:59,320 Speaker 2: I had three sons by the time I was twenty two, 1629 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,919 Speaker 2: so I had to grow up very fast. As reported 1630 01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:06,040 Speaker 2: by e T Canada, the famed bigamist and Edwards separated 1631 01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:09,080 Speaker 2: briefly in nineteen eighty one, but married again less than 1632 01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 2: a year later. They would part for good following the 1633 01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:14,800 Speaker 2: film of Crocodile Dundee. It was but one of the 1634 01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:18,839 Speaker 2: downsides of Hogan's experience. It became a very public divorce, 1635 01:30:18,920 --> 01:30:22,679 Speaker 2: with the media depicting Hogan rightfully so, as abandoning his family. 1636 01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:26,920 Speaker 2: But Hogan wed Koslowski in a private ceremony in Australia 1637 01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety at a mansion that he built as 1638 01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:31,120 Speaker 2: a wedding gift for his bride. 1639 01:30:31,479 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 1: That's cute. 1640 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:34,280 Speaker 2: There were no rooms for his other three sons. 1641 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 1: Has there ever been a you know those marriages like 1642 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,040 Speaker 1: Lizen Dick where they divorce and then they marry again. 1643 01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 1: Has the second marriage to the same person ever stuck? 1644 01:30:44,680 --> 01:30:46,559 Speaker 1: I can't think of one. I don't care. 1645 01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:50,439 Speaker 2: The pair had a son named Chase, and they settled 1646 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:53,840 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles, where they raised him together. Sadly, they 1647 01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 2: split up in twenty thirteen, with Koslowski telling the Sydney 1648 01:30:56,479 --> 01:31:01,080 Speaker 2: Morning Herald, Honestly, we just naturally grew apart. They would 1649 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:03,639 Speaker 2: frequently say in interviews how little they had in common, 1650 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 2: but previously spuned his opposites attracting. She said, I lived 1651 01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 2: in Paul's shadow for many, many years, and it's nice 1652 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:12,640 Speaker 2: to feel my own light right now. The divorce was 1653 01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:15,280 Speaker 2: very amicable, with Hogan himself saying it was twenty wonder 1654 01:31:15,320 --> 01:31:17,360 Speaker 2: four years two or three that were sort of like 1655 01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:21,559 Speaker 2: worn out. I'm very flighty. A woman lasts for about 1656 01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:23,479 Speaker 2: a quarter of a century and then they get bored 1657 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:26,880 Speaker 2: with me. That's medium funny. He refused to characterize the 1658 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,320 Speaker 2: nineteen year old marriage's a failure, saying how can you 1659 01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:32,120 Speaker 2: fail after a quarter of a century? Failed marriages are 1660 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:34,080 Speaker 2: when two people stay together even though they have long 1661 01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:37,680 Speaker 2: ago lost interest. Kozlowski received a one off payment of 1662 01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:40,439 Speaker 2: six point twenty five million dollars and the right to 1663 01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:43,080 Speaker 2: remain living in their Venice Beach home for four years 1664 01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 2: or until she remarried, which ever happened first. While Hogan, 1665 01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:49,800 Speaker 2: bless his heart, kept his eye on the prize, he 1666 01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:53,519 Speaker 2: retained his rights to Crocodile Dundee, the character, and the 1667 01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 2: film company that produced the classic films. 1668 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:59,439 Speaker 1: Australian actist Rebert Wilson said in recent years that she 1669 01:31:59,479 --> 01:32:02,920 Speaker 1: approached Paul Hogan to make a Crocodile Dundee reboot with 1670 01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:06,360 Speaker 1: her starring in the lead role. Obviously it would have 1671 01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:08,720 Speaker 1: Paul Hogan in it in some way, she said, but 1672 01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:11,880 Speaker 1: he didn't want a female to play Crocodile Dundee. I 1673 01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:14,559 Speaker 1: think it's a travesty, as I think out of anyone 1674 01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:17,640 Speaker 1: in Australia. I'm the one most suited to do it. 1675 01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:21,400 Speaker 2: There's like, we're misreading all of these quots. 1676 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:24,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there's yeah as Americans, and I think yeah. 1677 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:28,800 Speaker 1: I'm fairly certain that there's some degree of sarcasm there, 1678 01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:31,439 Speaker 1: although she clearly did really want to do it. In 1679 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:35,000 Speaker 1: January twenty eighteen, fans of Crocodile Dundee were excited to 1680 01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:37,719 Speaker 1: see teasers that seemed to hint at a new sequel. 1681 01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:41,599 Speaker 1: This was followed by an expensive and extensive ad at 1682 01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:45,400 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl featuring Danny McBride, Chris Hemsworth and Paul 1683 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:49,320 Speaker 1: Hogan himself. The trailer light clip fooled many into believing 1684 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:51,759 Speaker 1: that there was something bigger in the works, but instead 1685 01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:55,480 Speaker 1: it was merely a twenty seven million dollar ad campaign 1686 01:32:55,960 --> 01:33:00,960 Speaker 1: designed to revitalize Australian tourism. Australia's Minister for Trade, Tourism 1687 01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:05,200 Speaker 1: and Investment, the Honorable Steven Siabo, told Tourism Australia this 1688 01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:08,559 Speaker 1: is the single largest investment Tourism Australia has ever made 1689 01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:12,320 Speaker 1: in the US market. The ad campaign had another result, 1690 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:17,679 Speaker 1: pissing off Crocodile Dundee super fans. According to Slate. Many 1691 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:20,920 Speaker 1: people wish the reboot was real, with some fans even 1692 01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:24,960 Speaker 1: banding together to sign a petition. The Daily Mail reported 1693 01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:27,679 Speaker 1: that Paul Hogan had no plans to make another Crocodile 1694 01:33:27,760 --> 01:33:32,360 Speaker 1: Dundee movie. He told The Today Show It's not gonna happen. 1695 01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:37,160 Speaker 1: But you know, for all we've said about Australia over 1696 01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:40,920 Speaker 1: the course of this episode, I find a certain degree 1697 01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 1: of sweetness in Mick Crocodile Dundee. Yeah. 1698 01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:46,080 Speaker 2: I mean, the ways in which you can point out 1699 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:49,080 Speaker 2: the negativities are so cartoonish. But I also think this 1700 01:33:49,200 --> 01:33:53,200 Speaker 2: movie is very funny. Paul Hogan is an incredibly charming man. 1701 01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:57,920 Speaker 2: He might be not good at sketch comedy, but he's 1702 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:04,639 Speaker 2: very charming. Readily, uh things I do for nineteen eighty 1703 01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:08,520 Speaker 2: never mind. And like I said again, man, every Australian 1704 01:34:08,520 --> 01:34:11,600 Speaker 2: I've ever met has just been a delight, you know, 1705 01:34:13,160 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 2: sometimes a delight that would result in astounding hangovers for me, 1706 01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:22,559 Speaker 2: but a delight nonetheless. So please don't take my taking 1707 01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:26,960 Speaker 2: the piss of them for off them, taking the piss 1708 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 2: of them, taking the piss from them, from them, I'll 1709 01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:36,000 Speaker 2: go from them, taking the piss to them, within them 1710 01:34:36,080 --> 01:34:37,639 Speaker 2: of where. 1711 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:40,160 Speaker 1: Is the piss and where can it be removed? How 1712 01:34:40,160 --> 01:34:41,479 Speaker 1: do you remove the piss? How do you take the 1713 01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:42,760 Speaker 1: piss off? Someone? 1714 01:34:43,040 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 2: Catheter very quietly cath Yeah, Australia is great, you know, 1715 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:52,800 Speaker 2: just like two of my favorite bands of all time 1716 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 2: and history of Lovely, lovely. 1717 01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:57,599 Speaker 1: Charming people and great Barrier Reef fun movie. 1718 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:00,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they got great reefs. Oh Royal Headache. I 1719 01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:03,839 Speaker 2: forgot about Royal Headache. They're probably one of my favorite 1720 01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:09,040 Speaker 2: bands of the past ten years. Incredible punk band who 1721 01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 2: I believe just broke up because they were Australian and 1722 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:14,240 Speaker 2: the lead singer was like a moss. But I forgot 1723 01:35:14,280 --> 01:35:15,120 Speaker 2: about Royal Headache. 1724 01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:19,719 Speaker 1: Great band. Uh you got a kicker? I write a kicker. Okay. 1725 01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:21,920 Speaker 1: So I'd like to leave you with this quote from 1726 01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:25,479 Speaker 1: Paul Hogan. He talked about how kind of disturbed he 1727 01:35:25,680 --> 01:35:27,760 Speaker 1: was that people in the US saw his character as 1728 01:35:27,760 --> 01:35:32,080 Speaker 1: they cross between Chuck Norris and Rambo, but for him 1729 01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:35,000 Speaker 1: this really wasn't the heart of his creation. He said, 1730 01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,880 Speaker 1: when Crocodile Dundee was due to be released, the movie 1731 01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:40,559 Speaker 1: scene is screaming out for a movie hero who doesn't 1732 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 1: kill seventy five people less of those commandos, terminators, ex 1733 01:35:45,360 --> 01:35:49,280 Speaker 1: terminators and squashers. Makes a good role model. There's no 1734 01:35:49,439 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 1: malice in the fellow and he's human. He's not a 1735 01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:55,200 Speaker 1: whimp or a sissy just because he doesn't kill people. 1736 01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:59,599 Speaker 1: And you know, from an Australian, that's as much as 1737 01:35:59,600 --> 01:36:04,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna get a kidding. 1738 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 2: I mean, I also think it's funny where he's like, 1739 01:36:06,520 --> 01:36:08,439 Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, Americans just thought of me as a 1740 01:36:08,479 --> 01:36:12,240 Speaker 2: cross between you know, Robert Redford and Bruce Lee and 1741 01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:18,000 Speaker 2: Sylvester Saloone, Arn't Schwarzenegger, Ronald Reagan, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, 1742 01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 2: Marlon Brando, Ned Kelly, Ned Kelly, three of the four 1743 01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:24,680 Speaker 2: guys on Mount Rushmore. 1744 01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:26,560 Speaker 1: At least two of the Beatles. 1745 01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:30,240 Speaker 2: The's two of the Beatles. Sure, yeah, yeah, Elvis Presley's 1746 01:36:30,240 --> 01:36:33,400 Speaker 2: bass player, Jerry Lee Lewis's bass player that he shot 1747 01:36:33,400 --> 01:36:37,360 Speaker 2: in the chest. But I didn't think of myself that way. 1748 01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:39,519 Speaker 2: Australians hit me up. 1749 01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:40,200 Speaker 1: You're hilarious. 1750 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:41,960 Speaker 2: I love you.
