<v Speaker 5>it is. It is like, just be honest, this is

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 5>a friend of mine. I love him to love his kids,

0:00:55.640 --> 0:00:57.800

<v Speaker 4>And get them there's.

0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Nothing going on, really nothing. You shouldn't really go to

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:21.479
<v Speaker 2>being asked to come to a birthday. But until they're

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:22.039
<v Speaker 2>five and over?

0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but no, But it's more for the adults, isn't

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 4>It's nice to get together.

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 5>And you know what they should Actually, this is what

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:32.280
<v Speaker 5>we should do. All the parents should choose one day

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.039
<v Speaker 5>out of the year, like August twentieth and go, We're

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:36.800

<v Speaker 5>a big old.

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:39.479
<v Speaker 3>It's a very good idea each other.

0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 5>And it's all done in one horse's birthday.

0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.600

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 5>Are they mostly young dads or am they mixed?

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 4>from the park Field site.

0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>We were asked to come up with an idea about

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:49.800
<v Speaker 2>that to celebrate. Well, I don't know what happens like

0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:53.800
<v Speaker 2>he didn't like the idea.

0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 4>So they're not there yet, but they're there early next year.

0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:57.400

0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:00.800
<v Speaker 2>to where you get fifty nfs over the West Gate.

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 5>It's a nightmare, real animal spents.

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.479
<v Speaker 4>And millions out there, and they're eventually going to have

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:10.640
<v Speaker 4>a gondola ride across the Lion in closing. Yeah, it's

0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:12.080
<v Speaker 4>going to be amazing.

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean.

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:18.360
<v Speaker 4>Amazing like gondolas like half his seat?

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I thought you on a lake like that. I'm

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 2>pretty sure those big cats can swim close within an hour.

0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 3>But she was nervously with like a big poleh in

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:35.240

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:48.120
<v Speaker 5>The cable carr is still scary to be going across

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 5>the linings a swing. You can't help it going one

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 5>of those things and thinks what happens?

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes they just have a mechanical and you don't want

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 2>to be that one who's in the middle.

0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:58.760

<v Speaker 5>that Bank and I watched last night on Netflix was

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 5>called Will and Harper. It's about Will Ferrell and his

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 5>friend of twenty seven years is transitioning from a man

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 5>into a woman, and they go on this lovely road

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:56.960
<v Speaker 5>trip across the US.

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 3>I love if it were about half an hour into it, Yeah,

0:07:58.960 --> 0:07:59.520
<v Speaker 3>just started it.

0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 5>They go on the road trip to sort to have

0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 5>a conversation and sort out what this means for their

0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:07.480
<v Speaker 5>friendship now they've known each other for twenty odd years

0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 5>as two guys, and it's actually really moving. It's really beautiful.

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, things I'm enjoying at the moment.

0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:14.960
<v Speaker 2>You mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Patsy and I

0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:19.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't sure about it, but it's really good. The perfect couple. Yes, oh,

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 2>my god, it's very good. Nicole Kidman and Leif Schreiber

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:24.080
<v Speaker 2>very very very watchable.

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 4>Stupid dance. Like the opening credit, they do this ridiculous

0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 4>stay but Nicole's.

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 3>Doing all of them, all them.

0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:32.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's really really watchable. The other thing that I

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.079
<v Speaker 2>really enjoyed is a movie that came out last week.

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.120
<v Speaker 2>George Clooney and Brad Pitt together in a movie, first

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:41.319
<v Speaker 2>one together since Ocean's Eleven, which is lot older now

0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 2>than you think. They're still so good together. They need

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 2>to do more movies together. It's called Wolves. Very very good.

0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Really really enjoyed that. That is on Apple TV and

0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>on Foxtowl. If you're a big fan of Sopranos, probably

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 2>I would say my favorite TV show ever is The Sopranos.

0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 2>There was a great two part documentary with David Chase,

0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 2>who came up with the show Fascinate and its interviews

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 2>with all the cast as well, even the late great

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.720
<v Speaker 2>James Gannandlphini as well, and it shows you their audition

0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:09.600
<v Speaker 2>tapes that they did for the various characters as well.

0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:12.600
<v Speaker 2>It's brilliant. Can't recommend enough. That's on Fox TEW. You'll

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:13.680
<v Speaker 2>find it's called Wise

0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.880
