9
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 5: My uncle in usl E was assigned to a job.

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 3: The person he picked up was Elvis Presley.

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 5: My uncle is she trumpet player on the minder theater?

12
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 5: My mom she met mucellany at the train station.

13
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell's weakest claim to face.

14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 6: The Mussolini one. Last week she got a home from Mussolini.

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 6: All right.

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: Weakest claim to fine callo emails to kick us off.

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: This comes torom Monaca. While traveling to the US in

18
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety, my mama accidentally swapped her vanity case fancy

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: with the stunt double of magnum Pi Tom Selleck. Because

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: the vanity cases were identical, we had to organize a

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 2: meet up for her to swap the case back.

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 6: And yes, tom Selick's stunt double was a woman. Dressed

23
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 6: as Tom with Come on, that's a lie. I can

24
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 6: tell me. No one in Hollywood could double for Tom's.

25
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had to get a woman with a big

26
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 2: old hair and the dash. We need more on this, pending, pending. Okay,

27
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: this is huge if true. This comes from Rick Christian.

28
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: I have a real fresh claim to fame, a bad one.

29
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: I listed an old vinyl over the weekend on gum Tree,

30
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 2: got a message saying how quickly could I get them

31
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: to South Melbourne. They offered me extra money that I

32
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 2: was asking for, so went to a city dropped them off.

33
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: It turns out they brought us props for the new

34
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,120
