<v Speaker 2>looking for a new TV show, movie someone to read

0:00:33.125 --> 0:00:33.765
<v Speaker 2>this weekend.

0:00:34.205 --> 0:00:35.525
<v Speaker 1>We call it double thumbs up.

0:00:35.725 --> 0:00:38.285
<v Speaker 2>Now, a couple of weeks ago, Alex, you mentioned TV

0:00:38.325 --> 0:00:40.805
<v Speaker 2>show called Terran and I actually think it was like

0:00:41.004 --> 0:00:43.205
<v Speaker 2>maybe even last year you mentioned it and you were

0:00:43.205 --> 0:00:45.044
<v Speaker 2>saying it was very interesting about kind of some of

0:00:45.045 --> 0:00:48.845
<v Speaker 2>the elements that's going on right now. And suddenly the

0:00:48.925 --> 0:00:50.644
<v Speaker 2>last couple of weeks have had a lot of emails

0:00:50.644 --> 0:00:53.764
<v Speaker 2>and people who remember that. I've started watching it, and

0:00:54.085 --> 0:00:57.965
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, it really foresaw what's.

0:00:57.765 --> 0:00:59.925
<v Speaker 1>Really been played at right now the global scale.

0:01:00.045 --> 0:01:05.125
<v Speaker 4>I cannot recommend this show enough. It's unbelievable, engrossing, fascinating,

0:01:05.405 --> 0:01:08.045
<v Speaker 4>also deeply deeply disturbing because you get.

0:01:07.885 --> 0:01:10.845
<v Speaker 2>A real especially now it must because you're watching the

0:01:10.885 --> 0:01:11.485
<v Speaker 2>news and.

0:01:11.805 --> 0:01:14.085
<v Speaker 4>In light of current events, absolutely christian and like you

0:01:14.125 --> 0:01:15.965
<v Speaker 4>get to see the kind of the inner workings of

0:01:16.005 --> 0:01:19.444
<v Speaker 4>that secret battle between moss Ad and the Iranian Revolutionary

0:01:19.485 --> 0:01:22.245
<v Speaker 4>Guard and It's fictional, of course, but geez, I think

0:01:22.285 --> 0:01:24.645
<v Speaker 4>it rings true for a lot of people, especially in

0:01:24.725 --> 0:01:27.245
<v Speaker 4>that part of the world. And you just it centers

0:01:27.245 --> 0:01:30.885
<v Speaker 4>around this young female Iranian who is a Mossad agent and.

0:01:31.525 --> 0:01:36.405
<v Speaker 1>Hugh Laurie, No, that's not He's got range. He can

0:01:36.445 --> 0:01:39.164
<v Speaker 1>do American women.

0:01:39.325 --> 0:01:43.365
<v Speaker 2>Now is Mossad moss Sad Ladies, spy, roxyre goodh jab Yeah,

0:01:43.365 --> 0:01:44.365
<v Speaker 2>old Hugh Laurie.

0:01:44.445 --> 0:01:46.485
<v Speaker 4>He comes into it a bit later, But I guess

0:01:46.525 --> 0:01:49.605
<v Speaker 4>the main character is this this young female agent and

0:01:49.645 --> 0:01:52.805
<v Speaker 4>her family is dragging into it. There's double crossing, there's

0:01:52.845 --> 0:01:56.845
<v Speaker 4>love interests, there's that choice, that awful choice between family

0:01:57.325 --> 0:02:00.005
<v Speaker 4>and the state, between family and the regime.

0:02:00.165 --> 0:02:01.765
<v Speaker 1>And man, it.

0:02:01.805 --> 0:02:04.805
<v Speaker 4>Is so engrossing. I cannot get enough of it. I

0:02:04.845 --> 0:02:08.165
<v Speaker 4>can't stop watching it. The trouble is Bonnie's not watching it,

0:02:08.205 --> 0:02:09.645
<v Speaker 4>so I have to sort of go off and sneak

0:02:09.685 --> 0:02:11.525
<v Speaker 4>around and say, we all.

0:02:11.445 --> 0:02:13.165
<v Speaker 1>Have that, we have your own little side show.

0:02:13.484 --> 0:02:15.685
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And I can't talk to her about it, and

0:02:15.725 --> 0:02:17.845
<v Speaker 4>like she'll she'll walk in halfway through an episode and

0:02:17.845 --> 0:02:18.965
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, oh, I can't explain it.

0:02:19.405 --> 0:02:22.565
<v Speaker 2>A lot of us where we don't understand. It's incredibly complicated.

0:02:23.045 --> 0:02:25.005
<v Speaker 2>What's going out I'm gone to being played out and

0:02:25.605 --> 0:02:28.165
<v Speaker 2>Iran in the Middle East, and so I guess for

0:02:28.205 --> 0:02:29.885
<v Speaker 2>a shot that you're probably learning a lot about the

0:02:29.925 --> 0:02:30.965
<v Speaker 2>history of the area as well.

0:02:31.005 --> 0:02:33.845
<v Speaker 4>Definitely, and and and the lengths they are willing to go,

0:02:34.085 --> 0:02:40.245
<v Speaker 4>like Mossad, especially what they press us. No, I'm sorry, it's.

0:02:40.125 --> 0:02:42.725
<v Speaker 2>Written that's going to hang around everyone right now. It's

0:02:42.725 --> 0:02:45.325
<v Speaker 2>going to be some telegand sport to keep it light.

0:02:45.805 --> 0:02:49.365
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, but it's just so you know, you're going

0:02:49.445 --> 0:02:50.285
<v Speaker 1>to be having dinner tonight.

0:02:50.285 --> 0:02:52.445
<v Speaker 2>You're right, Johnny, Beit quiet, just a lengths they're going

0:02:52.445 --> 0:02:55.565
<v Speaker 2>to go to radio.

0:02:57.285 --> 0:02:57.885
<v Speaker 1>Didn't do this.

0:02:59.405 --> 0:03:01.205
<v Speaker 2>Hey, the other one I watched, h Lurie got himself

0:03:01.245 --> 0:03:04.885
<v Speaker 2>mixed up in there. He play some sort of shifty

0:03:04.965 --> 0:03:06.125
<v Speaker 2>triple British agent.

0:03:06.205 --> 0:03:06.845
<v Speaker 1>Is he he's work?

0:03:06.925 --> 0:03:09.645
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it works in weapons I think we're but weapons detection.

0:03:09.765 --> 0:03:10.965
<v Speaker 1>Selling them out webs of master.

0:03:11.645 --> 0:03:13.605
<v Speaker 2>Whenever there's an English guy in those shows, there's always

0:03:13.605 --> 0:03:14.725
<v Speaker 2>someone shifty.

0:03:14.365 --> 0:03:17.285
<v Speaker 1>Aren't they. Yes, they're always the most evil of people.

0:03:18.245 --> 0:03:21.805
<v Speaker 3>In the eighties, it used to be Russians Simon.

0:03:21.965 --> 0:03:24.725
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's very complicated out there in the regions.

0:03:24.765 --> 0:03:27.645
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's tribal see there's a lot of money

0:03:27.645 --> 0:03:29.245
<v Speaker 2>to me those Well.

0:03:29.285 --> 0:03:32.525
<v Speaker 3>Actually I haven't watched the Miley Cyrus Hannah Montana movie recently,

0:03:32.805 --> 0:03:33.885
<v Speaker 3>and the English Guy.

0:03:33.805 --> 0:03:35.685
<v Speaker 1>Was every movie.

0:03:35.765 --> 0:03:40.005
<v Speaker 2>Remember the English Guy turns Shifty up to eas the

0:03:40.005 --> 0:03:41.685
<v Speaker 2>puppet Master, he's so good.

0:03:41.685 --> 0:03:45.125
<v Speaker 4>And black Adder, Oh my godness, it's wonderful old shows.

0:03:45.325 --> 0:03:47.205
<v Speaker 1>Patsy, what do you what's your double thumbs up to

0:03:47.285 --> 0:03:47.605
<v Speaker 1>this week?

0:03:47.725 --> 0:03:50.845
<v Speaker 5>I just had to this week get into belmain Born

0:03:51.205 --> 0:03:54.005
<v Speaker 5>rose Burn. If I had legs, i'd kick you. You

0:03:54.005 --> 0:03:57.165
<v Speaker 5>can watch it on STAN. I do like to Oscar season.

0:03:57.365 --> 0:03:59.845
<v Speaker 5>Just see what all the boss is about, and I'll

0:03:59.885 --> 0:04:04.005
<v Speaker 5>tell you what Her nomination for an Oscar was absolutely

0:04:04.205 --> 0:04:05.085
<v Speaker 5>well deserved.

0:04:05.125 --> 0:04:06.485
<v Speaker 1>This what's seen the movie? Is it good?

0:04:06.845 --> 0:04:11.485
<v Speaker 5>This won't be for everyone? Is unsettling. It is anxious.

0:04:11.925 --> 0:04:16.205
<v Speaker 5>As a mum, you will actually feel exhaustion watching it.

0:04:16.284 --> 0:04:16.925
<v Speaker 1>You will relate.

0:04:17.005 --> 0:04:20.085
<v Speaker 5>Just there's so many scenes there where I thought as

0:04:20.125 --> 0:04:23.724
<v Speaker 5>a mum it just rung true and related. I physically

0:04:23.765 --> 0:04:28.805
<v Speaker 5>felt exhausted watching some scenes. She's a therapist who is

0:04:28.844 --> 0:04:32.325
<v Speaker 5>struggling with a very sick child and an absent partner,

0:04:32.364 --> 0:04:35.845
<v Speaker 5>a husband who is really not there, and just the

0:04:35.924 --> 0:04:40.284
<v Speaker 5>struggle and the Torment. It is absolutely brilliant. It is

0:04:40.404 --> 0:04:46.964
<v Speaker 5>excruciatingly good. And her performance, seriously is I think she

0:04:47.005 --> 0:04:49.124
<v Speaker 5>should have got the Oscar. Personally, I think she was

0:04:49.325 --> 0:04:52.364
<v Speaker 5>absolutely brilliant. I mean, we've seen her in stuff like

0:04:52.484 --> 0:04:57.004
<v Speaker 5>Bridesmaids where she's absolutely hilarious. But this, oh my goodness,

0:04:57.125 --> 0:05:00.445
<v Speaker 5>this is the role of her lifetime to date. See

0:05:00.484 --> 0:05:02.404
<v Speaker 5>it if you can. If I had legs, i'd kick you.

0:05:02.445 --> 0:05:05.245
<v Speaker 5>It's on stand right now this week.

0:05:05.325 --> 0:05:06.325
<v Speaker 1>We really enjoying this.

0:05:07.404 --> 0:05:09.565
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it's the way the world right now talking about

0:05:09.604 --> 0:05:12.284
<v Speaker 2>and recommending the Apple TV show Terran at the moment.

0:05:12.765 --> 0:05:16.405
<v Speaker 1>For me, it's a German spy thriller. Unfamiliar.

0:05:16.844 --> 0:05:20.164
<v Speaker 2>Now, I'm going to say something in a minute and

0:05:20.325 --> 0:05:22.564
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine point nine percent of people listening and go,

0:05:22.604 --> 0:05:27.244
<v Speaker 2>I'm never gonna watch that. It has subtitles, it's in German. Actually,

0:05:27.245 --> 0:05:28.765
<v Speaker 2>I don't think anyone's going to get this. There's no

0:05:28.804 --> 0:05:31.364
<v Speaker 2>point we even saying anymore. But there's two types of

0:05:31.364 --> 0:05:34.364
<v Speaker 2>people in this world, those who can read subtitles.

0:05:34.604 --> 0:05:35.245
<v Speaker 1>It is out.

0:05:35.445 --> 0:05:39.284
<v Speaker 2>There's only six episodes. It is so good. Oh my god,

0:05:39.404 --> 0:05:42.004
<v Speaker 2>it is really really good. You know, something's worst show

0:05:42.125 --> 0:05:46.765
<v Speaker 2>so good? It starts to infiltrate the dreams. Oh I

0:05:46.804 --> 0:05:48.164
<v Speaker 2>woke out the middle of the night and I actually

0:05:48.164 --> 0:05:52.244
<v Speaker 2>thought I was in a burning safe house. It's Frans coming.

0:05:53.125 --> 0:05:54.084
<v Speaker 2>It's Frans coming.

0:05:54.205 --> 0:05:55.124
<v Speaker 1>Sounds terrifying.

0:05:55.364 --> 0:05:58.164
<v Speaker 2>You're a middle aged DJ living in Australia. Wait, it's

0:05:58.205 --> 0:06:02.325
<v Speaker 2>something cover. I'm in a safe house in Sydney. I

0:06:02.364 --> 0:06:05.724
<v Speaker 2>cannot recommend enough. It's called unfamiliar. And another thing. One

0:06:06.085 --> 0:06:08.245
<v Speaker 2>one thing I would really recommend to to parents as

0:06:08.245 --> 0:06:10.244
<v Speaker 2>you can get older and start to leave home is

0:06:10.565 --> 0:06:14.364
<v Speaker 2>you have to find these pockets of connection because as

0:06:14.404 --> 0:06:16.724
<v Speaker 2>she wants to leave home, they've got this whole of

0:06:16.765 --> 0:06:19.044
<v Speaker 2>the life that you are you don't know that much about,

0:06:19.364 --> 0:06:21.205
<v Speaker 2>and so you can quite easy get quite disconnected and

0:06:21.205 --> 0:06:23.844
<v Speaker 2>then almos get irritated. They start talking about stuff you

0:06:23.924 --> 0:06:27.164
<v Speaker 2>really don't know their interior world. And so whenever they're

0:06:27.164 --> 0:06:30.125
<v Speaker 2>into TV shows or reading books, I always make sure

0:06:30.164 --> 0:06:33.124
<v Speaker 2>that I will read and get up on whatever they're reading.

0:06:33.205 --> 0:06:35.205
<v Speaker 2>So we've got something to talk about then. And there's

0:06:35.245 --> 0:06:37.325
<v Speaker 2>like people like sharing something that they're interested in. So

0:06:37.685 --> 0:06:40.005
<v Speaker 2>my daughter's got into My oldest daughter, Ruby is twenty one.

0:06:40.125 --> 0:06:43.964
<v Speaker 2>She's really into this brilliant ABC podcast I've been running

0:06:43.964 --> 0:06:46.365
<v Speaker 2>for a couple of years since the Mushroom trial, and

0:06:46.445 --> 0:06:49.044
<v Speaker 2>it's called The Case of Two Brilliant Journalists.

0:06:49.085 --> 0:06:50.324
<v Speaker 1>I cannot recommend enough.

0:06:50.604 --> 0:06:54.084
<v Speaker 2>It's a really great series of journalism where they follow

0:06:54.125 --> 0:06:57.685
<v Speaker 2>true crime court case and there's one the moment that

0:06:57.724 --> 0:07:01.124
<v Speaker 2>they've got called the Two Intruders. The Case of the

0:07:01.164 --> 0:07:05.884
<v Speaker 2>Two Intruders. It's an incredible, barely believable story and the

0:07:05.924 --> 0:07:09.125
<v Speaker 2>police sting operation involving setting up eight gangs.

0:07:09.245 --> 0:07:11.925
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible. It's set in Australia, is it.

0:07:12.085 --> 0:07:14.725
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Australian crime stories the one at the moment I'm

0:07:14.725 --> 0:07:16.045
<v Speaker 2>listening to it and it's about an act of trial,

0:07:16.125 --> 0:07:18.805
<v Speaker 2>so I can't say much more. But anyway, I'm going

0:07:18.845 --> 0:07:21.364
<v Speaker 2>for a walk yesterday, I'm listening to the new episode.

0:07:21.364 --> 0:07:23.285
<v Speaker 2>This is going to fry your minds. I'm listing a

0:07:23.325 --> 0:07:26.845
<v Speaker 2>new episode and they start to go to their emails

0:07:26.885 --> 0:07:31.125
<v Speaker 2>from their listeners. Suddenly, my daughter Ruby has sent an

0:07:31.125 --> 0:07:32.245
<v Speaker 2>email in Oh.

0:07:32.725 --> 0:07:34.845
<v Speaker 1>I almost got emotional. I was like, really, what is that.

0:07:35.125 --> 0:07:37.885
<v Speaker 1>She's not the same name as my daughter Ruby. That's

0:07:37.885 --> 0:07:40.245
<v Speaker 1>the sort of thing she would write. And they praised

0:07:40.325 --> 0:07:44.205
<v Speaker 1>her question for being astute. Congratulations and you're.

0:07:45.605 --> 0:07:47.605
<v Speaker 2>I'm just listening to the new episode. Oh I thought

0:07:47.605 --> 0:07:49.325
<v Speaker 2>you said you listened to it. Then I'm listening to it.

0:07:49.405 --> 0:07:53.845
<v Speaker 2>Your question got read out, and what a great praise, astute.

0:07:54.405 --> 0:07:55.845
<v Speaker 2>I want to try and weed all the word a

0:07:55.925 --> 0:07:57.324
<v Speaker 2>stew into the show next week.

0:07:57.525 --> 0:07:59.525
<v Speaker 3>I love that you, a radio DJ has been on

0:07:59.565 --> 0:08:03.045
<v Speaker 3>for twenty plus years, still gets excited with your family

0:08:03.045 --> 0:08:03.725
<v Speaker 3>member gets.

0:08:03.525 --> 0:08:07.005
<v Speaker 1>Really and I was so proud of her. I want you.

0:08:07.485 --> 0:08:09.965
<v Speaker 2>And now I'm like, I'm going to try and get

0:08:09.965 --> 0:08:11.965
<v Speaker 2>a question right out as well next week, but it

0:08:12.005 --> 0:08:12.965
<v Speaker 2>will not be as stupid.

0:08:13.045 --> 0:08:14.725
<v Speaker 1>They're probably going to go this is a bit base.

0:08:16.045 --> 0:08:17.204
<v Speaker 1>This was actually moronic.

0:08:17.445 --> 0:08:20.004
<v Speaker 3>I think it's just from a ten year old charge.

0:08:21.285 --> 0:08:22.925
<v Speaker 1>Ria. What are you giving double thumbs up to you?

0:08:22.965 --> 0:08:25.285
<v Speaker 1>What do you enjoying double thumbs up to rip a Ride.

0:08:25.325 --> 0:08:28.925
<v Speaker 3>It's a brilliant website if you're looking for accommodation for

0:08:28.965 --> 0:08:30.725
<v Speaker 3>the Easter holidays. I know a lot of people are

0:08:30.725 --> 0:08:33.085
<v Speaker 3>booking at the moment. I would sort of describe it

0:08:33.165 --> 0:08:36.565
<v Speaker 3>like a hipster Airbnb. Al Right, it's very I've used

0:08:36.605 --> 0:08:40.085
<v Speaker 3>it three times, actually used it last year for very unique,

0:08:40.205 --> 0:08:43.765
<v Speaker 3>unusual accommodations. So last year I stayed in sometimes I

0:08:43.885 --> 0:08:46.245
<v Speaker 3>like to take myself off on a little solar holiday.

0:08:46.925 --> 0:08:51.204
<v Speaker 3>Just not much, yeah, just incredible. So I've done, and

0:08:51.365 --> 0:08:53.565
<v Speaker 3>a lot of the accommodation is off grid. So I've

0:08:53.605 --> 0:08:57.285
<v Speaker 3>done a log cabin in the wilderness with a bath

0:08:57.405 --> 0:08:59.085
<v Speaker 3>tub and a sky roof.

0:08:59.564 --> 0:09:03.765
<v Speaker 1>I've done. It was stunning on the bush. Yeah, just

0:09:03.804 --> 0:09:04.204
<v Speaker 1>out in.

0:09:04.125 --> 0:09:06.485
<v Speaker 3>The bush, no phones, no internet, You've got your own

0:09:06.485 --> 0:09:07.485
<v Speaker 3>little fireplace.

0:09:08.285 --> 0:09:08.724
<v Speaker 1>I've done.

0:09:08.725 --> 0:09:10.925
<v Speaker 3>I've stayed in a cave house, which is like literally

0:09:10.965 --> 0:09:13.765
<v Speaker 3>in a cave that they've turned into this like beautiful home.

0:09:14.084 --> 0:09:15.965
<v Speaker 3>And then I've stayed out on a tiny home in

0:09:16.165 --> 0:09:19.285
<v Speaker 3>a in a farm where you can feed the cows,

0:09:19.324 --> 0:09:24.685
<v Speaker 3>feed the animals. It's incredible and you just give. So

0:09:24.725 --> 0:09:28.444
<v Speaker 3>that's all right, Christians just dying. Do you want some water?
