<v Speaker 1>and over the long weekend, families getting together. You'll all

0:00:36.285 --> 0:00:39.364
<v Speaker 1>be gathering out around the couch. You confronted with way

0:00:39.405 --> 0:00:41.644
<v Speaker 1>too much choice. There's too much choice. You don't know what,

0:00:41.725 --> 0:00:43.885
<v Speaker 1>you don't know what to watch, and so that's what

0:00:44.045 --> 0:00:46.885
<v Speaker 1>we do double thumbs up. For me, it's still on

0:00:46.885 --> 0:00:48.764
<v Speaker 1>the cinema. I earned you go and see at the

0:00:48.845 --> 0:00:51.685
<v Speaker 1>cinema because that's where it really. It needs a big

0:00:51.725 --> 0:00:53.765
<v Speaker 1>room because we're talking about a big talent. We're talking

0:00:53.765 --> 0:00:57.084
<v Speaker 1>about Elvis Presley, the Baslam movie. Elvis was bull in

0:00:57.085 --> 0:00:59.885
<v Speaker 1>a couple of years ago. But he's found the sixty

0:00:59.885 --> 0:01:03.285
<v Speaker 1>boxes of unseen footage of Elvis live in constantly stitched

0:01:03.325 --> 0:01:08.805
<v Speaker 1>together forensically. This live performance. You see Elvis performing and

0:01:08.805 --> 0:01:11.285
<v Speaker 1>and also rehearsing as well. Us how hard he worked

0:01:11.285 --> 0:01:13.845
<v Speaker 1>with that the world's greatest backup band as well. It's

0:01:13.845 --> 0:01:17.125
<v Speaker 1>called epic Elvis Presley Live in concert. I can't recommend

0:01:17.165 --> 0:01:18.805
<v Speaker 1>you go and see that enough and only be on

0:01:18.845 --> 0:01:20.165
<v Speaker 1>for another week or two. It's one of those things

0:01:20.205 --> 0:01:23.205
<v Speaker 1>where you do not need to be a big Elvis fan.

0:01:23.525 --> 0:01:26.445
<v Speaker 1>It's the joy in someone who is just so amazingly

0:01:26.485 --> 0:01:29.765
<v Speaker 1>good and live to perform as well, and it reminds

0:01:29.805 --> 0:01:32.245
<v Speaker 1>you just one amazing voice he had. He doesn't get

0:01:32.325 --> 0:01:34.845
<v Speaker 1>enough credit. There was such a big circus around Elvis

0:01:35.125 --> 0:01:37.765
<v Speaker 1>his whole life, especially how it ended as well. That's

0:01:37.805 --> 0:01:40.645
<v Speaker 1>the story of Elvis. It's just the tragedy, not the talent.

0:01:41.085 --> 0:01:44.485
<v Speaker 1>My god, that voice. I haven't stopped listening to Elvis

0:01:44.485 --> 0:01:46.325
<v Speaker 1>this week. I love that. My wife said, are you

0:01:46.365 --> 0:01:49.165
<v Speaker 1>going through on Elvis revival went? I just felt like

0:01:49.245 --> 0:01:51.965
<v Speaker 1>I got to really experience one of us must have

0:01:52.005 --> 0:01:54.165
<v Speaker 1>been like to see him live and forget about the

0:01:54.205 --> 0:01:57.725
<v Speaker 1>historics and everything else. Just what a singular talent, which

0:01:57.765 --> 0:01:59.525
<v Speaker 1>also leads me to the next thing I'm giving a

0:01:59.525 --> 0:02:01.925
<v Speaker 1>double thumbs up to that I watched last night. I

0:02:01.965 --> 0:02:04.965
<v Speaker 1>love a sports documentary, and the really great ones will

0:02:05.045 --> 0:02:08.045
<v Speaker 1>draw you in because it's about us what it is

0:02:08.085 --> 0:02:10.765
<v Speaker 1>to be huge. The Senate documentary is one of my

0:02:10.805 --> 0:02:14.125
<v Speaker 1>all time favorite movies. Also, When We were Kings of

0:02:14.205 --> 0:02:18.045
<v Speaker 1>Hummadali one is incredible. Last dance I'm rewatching for the

0:02:18.045 --> 0:02:21.325
<v Speaker 1>third time. I love that it did. I draw power

0:02:21.325 --> 0:02:23.484
<v Speaker 1>from it. But anyway, the thing I watched last night,

0:02:23.845 --> 0:02:25.845
<v Speaker 1>my wife came halfway through and was like, I'm not

0:02:25.845 --> 0:02:28.045
<v Speaker 1>a big golf fan. And then I found her. She

0:02:28.085 --> 0:02:30.005
<v Speaker 1>sat down the couch an hour later and what happened

0:02:30.045 --> 0:02:32.525
<v Speaker 1>to that big golf fan? You've been watching this for

0:02:32.565 --> 0:02:35.764
<v Speaker 1>an hour. It's the Rory McElroy documentary about him finally

0:02:35.765 --> 0:02:40.285
<v Speaker 1>getting the US Masters. The Master's Weight is his story.

0:02:40.765 --> 0:02:43.045
<v Speaker 1>It goes through the whole everything he did on the

0:02:43.045 --> 0:02:46.245
<v Speaker 1>final nine, the highs and the lows, takes you through

0:02:46.325 --> 0:02:48.845
<v Speaker 1>all the chokes he's had, not winning a major in

0:02:48.925 --> 0:02:52.965
<v Speaker 1>twelve years. Commentators talking about him, all the crashing loaves

0:02:53.085 --> 0:02:56.005
<v Speaker 1>him as a kid on TV shows when he was five,

0:02:56.445 --> 0:02:59.405
<v Speaker 1>his brother talking about how you know they shared a

0:02:59.445 --> 0:03:02.165
<v Speaker 1>bedroom growing up together in Ireland. Mum and dad were

0:03:02.165 --> 0:03:05.005
<v Speaker 1>working class and his brother would fall to sleep holding

0:03:05.045 --> 0:03:07.764
<v Speaker 1>that golf club in his hands where he just wanted

0:03:07.805 --> 0:03:10.845
<v Speaker 1>to that motion to something at a young age and

0:03:11.005 --> 0:03:12.885
<v Speaker 1>kept saying that he was going to win all the

0:03:13.525 --> 0:03:15.205
<v Speaker 1>and then his mum and dad. You know, it takes

0:03:15.205 --> 0:03:17.965
<v Speaker 1>a family to really really get behind a kid who's

0:03:18.005 --> 0:03:21.245
<v Speaker 1>got this, this supernatural talent. His dad worked a ninety

0:03:21.325 --> 0:03:24.365
<v Speaker 1>hour week, he had three jobs for eight years. Oh

0:03:24.445 --> 0:03:27.685
<v Speaker 1>my gosh. And I was watching that, and so the

0:03:27.765 --> 0:03:29.925
<v Speaker 1>dad worked during the day, the mum worked during the night.

0:03:30.005 --> 0:03:31.885
<v Speaker 1>So between the mom and dad were working twenty four

0:03:31.925 --> 0:03:34.085
<v Speaker 1>hours a day to back him. Because it just takes that,

0:03:34.205 --> 0:03:35.525
<v Speaker 1>you know, to fly your kid around the world, and

0:03:35.565 --> 0:03:38.685
<v Speaker 1>you're you're working class Northern Irish family. I was watching

0:03:38.685 --> 0:03:41.125
<v Speaker 1>that thinking, thank god, neither my daughters were good at sport.

0:03:42.205 --> 0:03:45.365
<v Speaker 1>The thought of working a ninety hour week brought me

0:03:45.405 --> 0:03:48.525
<v Speaker 1>out in a rash team. Wait this, ninety hours in

0:03:48.525 --> 0:03:52.725
<v Speaker 1>the week sixty nine, find a breakfast show, get some

0:03:52.805 --> 0:03:57.565
<v Speaker 1>of the Irish Carl and Jackie Oh money, Jackie olshe

0:03:58.485 --> 0:04:02.085
<v Speaker 1>so yeah. Rory mclory the documentary The Master's Way, cannot

0:04:02.125 --> 0:04:05.525
<v Speaker 1>recommend that enough. What an uplifting story. You've been tears

0:04:05.565 --> 0:04:07.605
<v Speaker 1>at the end when he wins it, you feel like

0:04:08.125 --> 0:04:10.285
<v Speaker 1>it's a win as well. I don't know how, but

0:04:10.405 --> 0:04:12.765
<v Speaker 1>it just did. Eat my Dorito's and a glass of

0:04:12.845 --> 0:04:15.485
<v Speaker 1>red wine. Yessay, I jumped up. When he finally when

0:04:15.485 --> 0:04:18.244
<v Speaker 1>he just collapses to the floor, you've seen iconic image.

0:04:18.245 --> 0:04:20.925
<v Speaker 1>It's something like when Muhammad Ali on those iconic sports

0:04:20.925 --> 0:04:24.925
<v Speaker 1>shots when an Ali has stood over sunny liston, sprawled

0:04:24.924 --> 0:04:26.564
<v Speaker 1>on the canvas and he's just like dropped him and

0:04:26.565 --> 0:04:29.085
<v Speaker 1>walked off. There's that shot and Rory clapsed into his

0:04:29.164 --> 0:04:31.844
<v Speaker 1>knees where there's no words. You get what he's feeling

0:04:31.885 --> 0:04:34.964
<v Speaker 1>in that moment. Cannot recommend enough that is on Amazon

0:04:35.005 --> 0:04:37.125
<v Speaker 1>Prime RIEA. What's your double thumbs.

0:04:36.885 --> 0:04:39.125
<v Speaker 2>Up, Aaron Chen, He's got a Netflix.

0:04:38.885 --> 0:04:41.604
<v Speaker 1>R stand up. Yes, love his delivery just gets straight

0:04:41.604 --> 0:04:43.924
<v Speaker 1>into it. Yes, he's built for comedies in the way

0:04:43.964 --> 0:04:45.645
<v Speaker 1>he looks. Yes. Yeah.

0:04:45.685 --> 0:04:48.404
<v Speaker 2>But also it's amazing to see someone like him. So

0:04:48.445 --> 0:04:49.564
<v Speaker 2>he's an ausie comedian.

0:04:50.364 --> 0:04:51.645
<v Speaker 1>He's a big global megastar.

0:04:51.724 --> 0:04:54.964
<v Speaker 2>Now he's just a kid from Hornsby and Sydney who

0:04:55.085 --> 0:04:57.685
<v Speaker 2>sort of just was doing Sydney pubs. And then he's

0:04:57.724 --> 0:05:01.004
<v Speaker 2>on Fisk. If anyone's watched good really good show or

0:05:01.005 --> 0:05:04.245
<v Speaker 2>Guy mont Gurry's gone Maurice spelling Bee. Then he blew

0:05:04.325 --> 0:05:06.124
<v Speaker 2>up a couple of years ago when he went on

0:05:06.205 --> 0:05:08.404
<v Speaker 2>Late Night with Seth Myers, and he did this brilliant

0:05:09.125 --> 0:05:11.605
<v Speaker 2>and now it's incredible to see because he's just this,

0:05:11.804 --> 0:05:14.484
<v Speaker 2>you know, small little Asian kid with messy.

0:05:14.885 --> 0:05:16.245
<v Speaker 1>Homegrown talent story.

0:05:16.325 --> 0:05:18.724
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, he just sort of shuffles around the stage.

0:05:18.765 --> 0:05:22.805
<v Speaker 2>He's very awkward, but he's so so funny and now

0:05:22.844 --> 0:05:25.404
<v Speaker 2>he's got a proper us Netflix special. It's filmed in

0:05:25.525 --> 0:05:29.125
<v Speaker 2>New York. To see someone like that on that stage

0:05:29.164 --> 0:05:33.365
<v Speaker 2>and this moment is so cool and something. He's got

0:05:33.404 --> 0:05:35.565
<v Speaker 2>a real ossy sense of humor as well, so it's

0:05:35.565 --> 0:05:39.724
<v Speaker 2>really great to watch that very understated, quiet, ossie dry,

0:05:40.044 --> 0:05:42.645
<v Speaker 2>very very dry sense of humor. To make it on

0:05:42.685 --> 0:05:44.685
<v Speaker 2>the big stage in America is so cool.

0:05:44.724 --> 0:05:46.445
<v Speaker 1>He's a careless stand up as well. Okay, so what's

0:05:46.445 --> 0:05:48.125
<v Speaker 1>the special coolness on Netflix?

0:05:48.245 --> 0:05:50.205
<v Speaker 2>Yes, on Netflix, it's called Funny Garden.

0:05:51.044 --> 0:05:54.245
