Speaker 4: On the cutting room floor today. Are you a bit

6
00:00:48,604 --> 00:00:49,524
Speaker 4: of an entrepreneur?

7
00:00:50,684 --> 00:00:51,244
Speaker 1: Not really?

8
00:00:52,444 --> 00:00:55,204
Speaker 2: Are you me? You don't don't really know.

9
00:00:55,604 --> 00:00:57,324
Speaker 4: When I was a kid, I used to have a

10
00:00:57,364 --> 00:01:00,804
Speaker 4: mowing business. This is before Jim's Mowing. And it started off.

11
00:01:00,844 --> 00:01:03,564
Speaker 4: I'd use my dad's mo and I'm mowing Dad's lawn

12
00:01:03,924 --> 00:01:06,604
Speaker 4: and the lady across the road she said, oh, you know,

13
00:01:07,283 --> 00:01:08,764
Speaker 4: would you be out to mow my lawn? I'll pay

14
00:01:08,804 --> 00:01:11,764
Speaker 4: you and okay, and then she gave me five dollars,

15
00:01:11,764 --> 00:01:13,484
Speaker 4: which was a considerable amount of money.

16
00:01:13,524 --> 00:01:14,324
Speaker 1: What did you do with that?

17
00:01:14,644 --> 00:01:17,684
Speaker 2: Well, I kept it and I went okay.

18
00:01:17,724 --> 00:01:20,283
Speaker 4: And then the guy next door to the lady said

19
00:01:20,844 --> 00:01:23,004
Speaker 4: would you my law and what are you charging?

20
00:01:23,284 --> 00:01:24,804
Speaker 2: And I said, oh, you know, what do you reckon?

21
00:01:24,884 --> 00:01:26,484
Speaker 2: He goes, oh, I'll give you ten bucks, and I

22
00:01:26,484 --> 00:01:27,284
Speaker 2: went okay.

23
00:01:27,524 --> 00:01:29,644
Speaker 4: So that lady was giving me five, and then the

24
00:01:29,724 --> 00:01:32,404
Speaker 4: dude ten, then all the street. I ended up mowing

25
00:01:32,444 --> 00:01:34,643
Speaker 4: the whole street. So I started putting money back into

26
00:01:34,644 --> 00:01:36,724
Speaker 4: the business. I bought myself a whip, snipper as well,

27
00:01:37,084 --> 00:01:41,204
Speaker 4: and I used I would have been about fourteen, and

28
00:01:41,244 --> 00:01:44,084
Speaker 4: then I went to boarding school. So I lost the business,

29
00:01:44,084 --> 00:01:46,244
Speaker 4: but I gave it over to my business. I lost

30
00:01:46,244 --> 00:01:48,523
Speaker 4: the business, but I gave it over to my brother

31
00:01:49,004 --> 00:01:51,004
Speaker 4: and my mate Cassa, you know Casa.

32
00:01:51,404 --> 00:01:55,004
Speaker 2: Anyway, one day, the lady the og she.

33
00:01:55,164 --> 00:01:57,084
Speaker 4: When I came back from school holidays, I went around

34
00:01:57,084 --> 00:01:59,364
Speaker 4: and said, you know, how's it all going. She says, look,

35
00:01:59,444 --> 00:02:02,364
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but I just couldn't work with your brother

36
00:02:02,484 --> 00:02:05,964
Speaker 4: and his friend because that would sit there and argue

37
00:02:06,244 --> 00:02:08,404
Speaker 4: in the backyard about who was doing the whipper snipping

38
00:02:08,603 --> 00:02:10,964
Speaker 4: and who was doing the moa. And she said, one

39
00:02:11,043 --> 00:02:14,044
Speaker 4: day I just heard them talking about dog shit for

40
00:02:14,124 --> 00:02:17,124
Speaker 4: about twenty minutes, because you know, back in the days,

41
00:02:17,244 --> 00:02:17,604
Speaker 4: that was.

42
00:02:17,524 --> 00:02:18,884
Speaker 2: When no one picked up dog poop.

43
00:02:19,483 --> 00:02:21,684
Speaker 4: So they just me I'm not moment over that, you know,

44
00:02:21,764 --> 00:02:23,963
Speaker 4: And then she said she gave them twenty dollars and

45
00:02:24,004 --> 00:02:27,923
Speaker 4: said just go away. So when I built that business,

46
00:02:28,004 --> 00:02:29,763
Speaker 4: it took me probably about a year.

47
00:02:30,084 --> 00:02:35,084
Speaker 2: They destroyed it in two moning sessions. And that's the

48
00:02:35,124 --> 00:02:36,644
Speaker 2: story of my brother and Cassa.

49
00:02:36,884 --> 00:02:38,884
Speaker 1: What happened with the role of that went into someone's

50
00:02:38,884 --> 00:02:42,044
Speaker 1: front yard though a different story. That's right, Well, that's

51
00:02:42,084 --> 00:02:46,924
Speaker 1: for another Ginger megsigation for another sixty business was that ruining,

52
00:02:46,964 --> 00:02:51,364
Speaker 1: not yours. That was just us being children, youths. But

53
00:02:52,004 --> 00:02:54,644
Speaker 1: I do like the stories of entrepreneurs.

54
00:02:54,684 --> 00:02:56,764
Speaker 4: And I'm well or I don't know if you're aware

55
00:02:56,844 --> 00:03:00,364
Speaker 4: of the group called swim Shady. So it's a former

56
00:03:00,524 --> 00:03:03,203
Speaker 4: NRL player and they've got these shirts and stuff the

57
00:03:03,644 --> 00:03:07,004
Speaker 4: sun protection and they've caught it swim shady and wearing

58
00:03:07,084 --> 00:03:08,644
Speaker 4: the water and it looks good.

59
00:03:08,684 --> 00:03:11,604
Speaker 1: You know, Oh, I've seen that their shirts instead of rashy.

60
00:03:11,684 --> 00:03:13,043
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you look like a bit of a tool

61
00:03:13,084 --> 00:03:14,004
Speaker 2: and a rashy but their.

62
00:03:14,004 --> 00:03:16,324
Speaker 1: Shirts and they say, I don't know if this is

63
00:03:16,324 --> 00:03:17,844
Speaker 1: that brand, but you can wear it straight out of

64
00:03:17,844 --> 00:03:20,164
Speaker 1: the water and five minutes later sitting the cafes dry.

65
00:03:20,524 --> 00:03:23,364
Speaker 2: And it looks it doesn't look like I'd like.

66
00:03:23,324 --> 00:03:23,924
Speaker 1: To get one of those.

67
00:03:24,163 --> 00:03:24,244
Speaker 5: Me.

68
00:03:24,363 --> 00:03:25,324
Speaker 1: Do they make girls ones?

69
00:03:26,163 --> 00:03:27,844
Speaker 2: I don't know. It seems to be a man thing,

70
00:03:27,884 --> 00:03:28,804
Speaker 2: but I'm sure they would.

71
00:03:29,404 --> 00:03:33,763
Speaker 4: But they've come foul of none other than Marshall Maver's

72
00:03:34,084 --> 00:03:36,884
Speaker 4: the original slim Shady eminem.

73
00:03:37,404 --> 00:03:40,044
Speaker 1: So so this is called swim Shade.

74
00:03:39,803 --> 00:03:44,644
Speaker 4: Swim Shady so he's they're suing, well, Marshall Mayo's people

75
00:03:45,004 --> 00:03:49,444
Speaker 4: and him are suing for I guess it's copyright on

76
00:03:49,484 --> 00:03:50,604
Speaker 4: the name swim Shady.

77
00:03:50,684 --> 00:03:51,604
Speaker 1: They have to change the name.

78
00:03:52,044 --> 00:03:52,684
Speaker 2: I hope not.

79
00:03:53,803 --> 00:03:57,084
Speaker 4: Eminem is renowned for protecting his brand after being embroiled

80
00:03:57,324 --> 00:04:00,284
Speaker 4: in multiple lawsuits over the use of his likeness and

81
00:04:00,444 --> 00:04:03,044
Speaker 4: music catalog, and a judge would deem that the people

82
00:04:03,084 --> 00:04:05,364
Speaker 4: would get youse swim Shady?

83
00:04:05,564 --> 00:04:07,204
Speaker 2: Is is it a line to slim show?

84
00:04:07,324 --> 00:04:09,684
Speaker 1: It's not a line, but you know to pun on it,

85
00:04:09,724 --> 00:04:12,484
Speaker 1: So you think, oh, fair enough, what's next? Fifty cents

86
00:04:12,524 --> 00:04:15,164
Speaker 1: going to sue the Australian government for having fifty cents.

87
00:04:16,644 --> 00:04:18,443
Speaker 2: Come on people? That could happen.

88
00:04:18,564 --> 00:04:19,363
Speaker 1: That could happen.

89
00:04:19,444 --> 00:04:22,884
Speaker 4: But I've was doing a show on Channel ten, I think,

90
00:04:23,084 --> 00:04:26,364
Speaker 4: and they had a bunch of ACDC pinball machines. So

91
00:04:26,524 --> 00:04:29,204
Speaker 4: the new ACDC pinball machine had been released. They had

92
00:04:29,204 --> 00:04:31,884
Speaker 4: a bunch of them, and I did a report on it,

93
00:04:32,124 --> 00:04:35,124
Speaker 4: and then we weren't allowed to play the music of

94
00:04:35,164 --> 00:04:38,084
Speaker 4: the ACDC pinball machine. You could play it on the

95
00:04:38,124 --> 00:04:42,244
Speaker 4: ACDC pinball machine, not on camera because it's been authorized

96
00:04:42,284 --> 00:04:43,004
Speaker 4: by ACDC.

97
00:04:43,284 --> 00:04:45,724
Speaker 2: But once you put that on TV, it's a different deal.

98
00:04:45,924 --> 00:04:47,084
Speaker 2: It hasn't been authorized.

99
00:04:47,204 --> 00:04:51,164
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember once going to LA with the Living Room.

100
00:04:51,364 --> 00:04:52,804
Speaker 1: We were the only people in the history of the

101
00:04:52,844 --> 00:04:54,924
Speaker 1: universe who went to LA who were told to not

102
00:04:54,964 --> 00:04:56,804
Speaker 1: film the Hollywood Sign because it was owned by Hugh

103
00:04:56,844 --> 00:05:00,924
Speaker 1: Hefner and he might sue up. Real imagine if he

104
00:05:01,004 --> 00:05:03,884
Speaker 1: sued everyone who would film the Hollywood Sign.

105
00:05:04,004 --> 00:05:05,363
Speaker 2: It's crazy, isn't it.

106
00:05:05,724 --> 00:05:06,563
Speaker 1: Draw the line?

107
00:05:06,644 --> 00:05:07,924
Speaker 2: Come on fatally for us.

108
00:05:07,964 --> 00:05:10,804
Speaker 4: No one's ripping out stuff off just about that. We've

109
00:05:10,804 --> 00:05:13,964
Speaker 4: already stolen it. And if you steal from us, you've

110
00:05:14,044 --> 00:05:15,044
Speaker 4: stolen twice.

111
00:05:15,164 --> 00:05:16,524
Speaker 3: Everybody, it's time.

112
00:05:17,044 --> 00:05:22,164
Speaker 2: And a man, what's on the cutting room floor today?

113
00:05:22,204 --> 00:05:26,204
Speaker 1: Friend, my son sent a photo the other day and

114
00:05:26,244 --> 00:05:27,564
Speaker 1: I had such a flashback.

115
00:05:27,804 --> 00:05:29,044
Speaker 2: Which son, Jack or Liam?

116
00:05:29,244 --> 00:05:33,284
Speaker 1: It was Liam who sent it, but Jack also responded

117
00:05:33,604 --> 00:05:35,884
Speaker 1: to it saying, what a weird time. And many of

118
00:05:35,924 --> 00:05:38,524
Speaker 1: us would have memories of how wed well, all of

119
00:05:38,604 --> 00:05:40,684
Speaker 1: us will memories of how weird this time was. It

120
00:05:40,724 --> 00:05:45,124
Speaker 1: was Christmas Day twenty twenty one. Oh yeah, Jack had

121
00:05:45,164 --> 00:05:48,804
Speaker 1: just had his school formal and this isn't this isn't

122
00:05:48,804 --> 00:05:49,243
Speaker 1: the event we.

123
00:05:49,284 --> 00:05:50,804
Speaker 2: Actually get to have a school formal.

124
00:05:51,244 --> 00:05:54,644
Speaker 1: That was the very last event before everything closed down

125
00:05:54,764 --> 00:05:55,324
Speaker 1: for lockdown.

126
00:05:55,444 --> 00:05:58,724
Speaker 2: But because twenty twenty twenty, let me.

127
00:05:58,604 --> 00:05:59,324
Speaker 1: Just tell the story.

128
00:05:59,404 --> 00:06:00,604
Speaker 2: I'm to try now.

129
00:06:00,644 --> 00:06:04,484
Speaker 1: I'm twenty one. Jack had his school formal. This is

130
00:06:04,564 --> 00:06:08,324
Speaker 1: pre vaccination. This is all borders closed. This Oh no, no,

131
00:06:08,364 --> 00:06:11,164
Speaker 1: the borders weren't closed, but it was pre vaccination all

132
00:06:11,204 --> 00:06:15,884
Speaker 1: of that, and nearly everyone at that formal got COVID.

133
00:06:16,364 --> 00:06:19,324
Speaker 1: This was the first cases we had ever heard of

134
00:06:19,444 --> 00:06:23,044
Speaker 1: in our community of COVID and it was Jack's cool.

135
00:06:23,124 --> 00:06:25,884
Speaker 2: So that was But that would have been Christmas twenty

136
00:06:26,004 --> 00:06:27,444
Speaker 2: at the end of twenty twenty.

137
00:06:27,724 --> 00:06:29,964
Speaker 1: Is it, Well, he thought it was Christmas twenty twenty one.

138
00:06:30,204 --> 00:06:31,084
Speaker 1: Is he a year out?

139
00:06:31,124 --> 00:06:32,924
Speaker 4: Because there was a bunch of And it's funny how

140
00:06:32,964 --> 00:06:36,484
Speaker 4: you say that, Because okay, let's go timeline twenty twenty.

141
00:06:37,164 --> 00:06:40,604
Speaker 4: That March of twenty twenty, that's when sko Ma did

142
00:06:40,604 --> 00:06:43,284
Speaker 4: the big breakthrough announcement. You were hosting Dance with the Stars,

143
00:06:43,804 --> 00:06:46,164
Speaker 4: and he said, you can't go out, you can't do anything.

144
00:06:46,604 --> 00:06:49,764
Speaker 4: And then we had Lockdown twenty twenty, and I saw

145
00:06:49,844 --> 00:06:51,244
Speaker 4: the Christmas at twenty twenty.

146
00:06:51,404 --> 00:06:54,764
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, it came back to the cash prizes. Well,

147
00:06:54,804 --> 00:06:59,844
Speaker 1: what happened here was that this photo shows Liam Harley's

148
00:06:59,884 --> 00:07:02,524
Speaker 1: taken the photo. It's Liam and I are sitting on

149
00:07:02,564 --> 00:07:06,084
Speaker 1: a couch. Jack is smiling. It's Christmas Day, but Jack

150
00:07:06,804 --> 00:07:11,764
Speaker 1: is on a iPad. He was in isolation on Christmas Day.

151
00:07:12,404 --> 00:07:14,124
Speaker 1: And what had happened was he and a number of

152
00:07:14,164 --> 00:07:17,964
Speaker 1: his friends all got COVID around the same time, and

153
00:07:18,244 --> 00:07:22,324
Speaker 1: a group of them went into one house because someone's

154
00:07:22,364 --> 00:07:26,644
Speaker 1: parents said, okay, take the house. We're going to go

155
00:07:27,164 --> 00:07:29,444
Speaker 1: down the coast. You take the house. So four or

156
00:07:29,444 --> 00:07:33,084
Speaker 1: five of them went into isolation together. But they were

157
00:07:33,124 --> 00:07:35,724
Speaker 1: all very, very sick. As a parent, it was very

158
00:07:35,764 --> 00:07:38,204
Speaker 1: alarming to not have him live at home during that

159
00:07:38,324 --> 00:07:40,244
Speaker 1: but it was so much easier that they could have.

160
00:07:40,444 --> 00:07:42,564
Speaker 1: They could roam around a house and we could roam

161
00:07:42,604 --> 00:07:46,564
Speaker 1: around our house. So but they're all very ill. We

162
00:07:46,604 --> 00:07:50,324
Speaker 1: forget what it was like before vaccination. And then when

163
00:07:50,684 --> 00:07:53,804
Speaker 1: the daughter of that house had come out of isolation,

164
00:07:53,884 --> 00:07:56,644
Speaker 1: the family wanted the house back, so Jack had to

165
00:07:56,684 --> 00:08:00,884
Speaker 1: come home. So we went down the coast and Jack

166
00:08:01,004 --> 00:08:03,004
Speaker 1: was on his own for Christmas Day, and our neighbors

167
00:08:03,124 --> 00:08:05,964
Speaker 1: very kindly wrapped up Christmas food put it on the

168
00:08:05,964 --> 00:08:09,364
Speaker 1: doorstep for him, and a week later the daughter had

169
00:08:09,404 --> 00:08:13,244
Speaker 1: COVID and she's been I think it was her holidays,

170
00:08:13,444 --> 00:08:15,564
Speaker 1: sitting in the pool outside while everyone else was inside

171
00:08:15,604 --> 00:08:18,484
Speaker 1: the house. But you forget what it was like. You

172
00:08:18,604 --> 00:08:21,884
Speaker 1: forget what it was like. And I had prepaid for

173
00:08:21,964 --> 00:08:25,044
Speaker 1: all our family, my Queensland family and everyone, my dad,

174
00:08:25,124 --> 00:08:27,724
Speaker 1: my brother, sister in law, my niss and nephew to

175
00:08:27,844 --> 00:08:31,444
Speaker 1: all meet in Noosa, and I'd prepaid to render house.

176
00:08:32,044 --> 00:08:35,843
Speaker 1: And because I was a close contact of Jack's, we

177
00:08:35,884 --> 00:08:39,883
Speaker 1: couldn't go. That was the days where Anastasia Palichet.

178
00:08:39,484 --> 00:08:42,044
Speaker 2: It was going nuts for yes, if we would.

179
00:08:41,884 --> 00:08:43,884
Speaker 1: Have had to go into isolation in Queensland for two

180
00:08:43,884 --> 00:08:48,484
Speaker 1: weeks in a hotel. And so I was every morning illegally.

181
00:08:48,644 --> 00:08:50,284
Speaker 1: I took my dog for a walk at four in

182
00:08:50,284 --> 00:08:53,484
Speaker 1: the morning, and I cried and I cried and I cried,

183
00:08:53,524 --> 00:08:55,244
Speaker 1: and I'd crossed the street if I saw someone because

184
00:08:55,284 --> 00:08:58,004
Speaker 1: I thought I can't afford to breathe on them. You

185
00:08:58,084 --> 00:09:01,484
Speaker 1: forget how it was. And it's all right for people

186
00:09:01,524 --> 00:09:04,604
Speaker 1: now to complain about our vaccination program and being forced vaccination.

187
00:09:04,884 --> 00:09:07,524
Speaker 1: We forget what it was like before we had vaccinations.

188
00:09:07,924 --> 00:09:11,764
Speaker 4: It is true, and my memory is a deal dim

189
00:09:11,804 --> 00:09:14,884
Speaker 4: of it now. Because and it feels and this is

190
00:09:14,884 --> 00:09:17,924
Speaker 4: why we forget about world wide pandemics. This has happened

191
00:09:17,964 --> 00:09:22,604
Speaker 4: before to US, worldwide pandemically. Two thousand and nine, for example,

192
00:09:22,604 --> 00:09:25,484
Speaker 4: we had swine flu, but that weren't locked down, no,

193
00:09:25,604 --> 00:09:27,444
Speaker 4: but they still had a lot of cases. There was

194
00:09:27,444 --> 00:09:29,284
Speaker 4: a lot of cases and a lot of people that

195
00:09:29,324 --> 00:09:34,004
Speaker 4: were in ICU, more though, more than what was actually

196
00:09:34,044 --> 00:09:37,924
Speaker 4: in ICU at the time when we went through COVID.

197
00:09:38,124 --> 00:09:39,444
Speaker 2: And that's why I used to look at the Sydney

198
00:09:39,444 --> 00:09:39,964
Speaker 2: Morning Herald.

199
00:09:40,004 --> 00:09:43,723
Speaker 4: They had an article about we had fifteen hundred ic

200
00:09:44,604 --> 00:09:47,644
Speaker 4: ICU beds in New South Wales, meaning that they were

201
00:09:47,844 --> 00:09:49,324
Speaker 4: fully ventilated.

202
00:09:48,764 --> 00:09:51,004
Speaker 2: Beds, So fifteen hundred people.

203
00:09:51,004 --> 00:09:55,404
Speaker 4: If they had that would be fully incubated, incubated and

204
00:09:55,444 --> 00:09:57,764
Speaker 4: they'd be fall on looked after.

205
00:09:58,204 --> 00:09:59,724
Speaker 2: We never got to that capacity.

206
00:09:59,724 --> 00:10:01,644
Speaker 1: Well, we could see the footage from America where bodies

207
00:10:01,644 --> 00:10:04,644
Speaker 1: are being put into the back of vans and mass graves.

208
00:10:04,204 --> 00:10:06,244
Speaker 4: And some people will say, oh, like this thought it

209
00:10:06,244 --> 00:10:07,483
Speaker 4: would do. The other day he goes, how did you

210
00:10:07,684 --> 00:10:09,684
Speaker 4: did you get vaccinations? I said, the art think I've

211
00:10:09,684 --> 00:10:11,924
Speaker 4: got about five or six of them, because why'd you

212
00:10:12,004 --> 00:10:13,364
Speaker 4: do that? And I said, well, I just didn't want to,

213
00:10:13,644 --> 00:10:16,524
Speaker 4: you know, I just I've been getting flu shots since

214
00:10:16,564 --> 00:10:19,484
Speaker 4: I was in my twenties, have been vaccinated for everything else.

215
00:10:19,884 --> 00:10:22,324
Speaker 2: What does it matter? You know, like really, why wouldn't you?

216
00:10:22,404 --> 00:10:24,124
Speaker 2: Like I drink like a fish, you know, like there's

217
00:10:24,204 --> 00:10:25,324
Speaker 2: me and other Your.

218
00:10:25,244 --> 00:10:27,364
Speaker 1: Body's a temple, one of those temples. But monkeys throw

219
00:10:27,404 --> 00:10:28,244
Speaker 1: their feces around.

220
00:10:28,324 --> 00:10:31,083
Speaker 4: Like I didn't lean into the conspiracy theory out of

221
00:10:31,164 --> 00:10:34,124
Speaker 4: mate that was telling me that there were five g

222
00:10:34,404 --> 00:10:38,204
Speaker 4: like little tidy microbots being injected. I said, dude, that

223
00:10:38,324 --> 00:10:41,404
Speaker 4: is the most nuts unhinged thing. But people as well.

224
00:10:41,444 --> 00:10:43,404
Speaker 4: But I don't judge people for not getting vaccinated in

225
00:10:43,444 --> 00:10:45,644
Speaker 4: it because a part of it is there was a

226
00:10:45,684 --> 00:10:48,404
Speaker 4: great fear you didn't know. Of course, with astrazeneka, all

227
00:10:48,444 --> 00:10:50,284
Speaker 4: of a sudden we're getting it and.

228
00:10:50,564 --> 00:10:52,364
Speaker 2: You're thinking, what, I'm going to get a blood clot now.

229
00:10:52,244 --> 00:10:55,084
Speaker 1: That's right. But having said that, people are looking back

230
00:10:55,084 --> 00:10:57,324
Speaker 1: at that time and saying, why did we have to

231
00:10:57,364 --> 00:11:01,124
Speaker 1: do that? We've forgotten why, we've forgotten how hard it was.

232
00:11:01,204 --> 00:11:02,564
Speaker 2: And you know what, in another.

233
00:11:03,924 --> 00:11:07,124
Speaker 4: What ninety five years from now, when it comes around again,

234
00:11:07,444 --> 00:11:09,564
Speaker 4: everyone'll be saying, oh, hang on, what well this.

235
00:11:09,524 --> 00:11:11,404
Speaker 1: Is like childbirth. Do you think we have more than

236
00:11:11,404 --> 00:11:14,124
Speaker 1: one child? If we remembered exactly.

237
00:11:13,644 --> 00:11:16,644
Speaker 2: What childbirth was like, you just got to keep on living.

238
00:11:16,764 --> 00:11:19,484
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll let you know when I have my next baby.

239
00:11:19,724 --> 00:11:22,644
Speaker 2: Well, we'll have a radio.

240
00:11:22,364 --> 00:11:25,004
Speaker 1: Competition and the Guinness Book of Records will be there too.

241
00:11:25,524 --> 00:11:28,684
Speaker 5: Hey, hey, everybody, here's some more Chelsea and a man's

242
00:11:28,724 --> 00:11:32,964
Speaker 5: curtain room for Hey. Hey, hey, get ready, everybody, here's

243
00:11:32,964 --> 00:11:38,284
Speaker 5: some more Chelsea and a man's curtain room for Hey, Hey, hey,

244
00:11:38,284 --> 00:11:38,484
Speaker 5: are you.

245
00:11:38,524 --> 00:11:41,764
Speaker 2: Ready for on the cutting room floor today?

246
00:11:41,884 --> 00:11:47,364
Speaker 4: Gen Z are ready to quit their job over bathroom anxiety.

247
00:11:47,364 --> 00:11:50,244
Speaker 1: This is interesting many gen Z. Did you say? You

248
00:11:50,284 --> 00:11:51,124
Speaker 1: said gen Z?

249
00:11:51,404 --> 00:11:53,284
Speaker 2: I say gen Z. It just rolls off the time.

250
00:11:53,364 --> 00:11:56,404
Speaker 1: Gen Z Washington. Gen Z is in the people in

251
00:11:56,404 --> 00:12:00,124
Speaker 1: their twenties. They're saying here that the workers are reporting

252
00:12:00,164 --> 00:12:04,644
Speaker 1: feeling uneasy using office bathrooms, with worries about noise, privacy,

253
00:12:04,764 --> 00:12:08,884
Speaker 1: awkward moments becoming a recurring stress point. Some even say

254
00:12:08,884 --> 00:12:11,444
Speaker 1: a single embarrassing incident has made them think about leaving,

255
00:12:11,524 --> 00:12:17,524
Speaker 1: highlighting how small discomforts can influence how younger employees view

256
00:12:17,924 --> 00:12:23,604
Speaker 1: their workplace. I wonder if this is COVID. This is

257
00:12:23,604 --> 00:12:26,564
Speaker 1: the generation that did a lot of their schooling at home.

258
00:12:26,924 --> 00:12:32,324
Speaker 1: A generation that hasn't had those social norms, and privacy

259
00:12:33,124 --> 00:12:37,044
Speaker 1: was an easier thing. You're not leaving your embarrassments out

260
00:12:37,044 --> 00:12:39,204
Speaker 1: in an office setting and might be working from home

261
00:12:39,244 --> 00:12:41,244
Speaker 1: a couple of days a week. I wonder if this

262
00:12:41,284 --> 00:12:43,764
Speaker 1: is one of the fallouts from that. Yeah, because the

263
00:12:43,884 --> 00:12:48,964
Speaker 1: toilets are embarrassing work toilets are embarrassing for men, probably

264
00:12:49,004 --> 00:12:51,004
Speaker 1: not so much for women. Usually embarrassing.

265
00:12:51,044 --> 00:12:54,044
Speaker 2: Some people are more open about it than others they are.

266
00:12:54,084 --> 00:12:55,684
Speaker 1: I wonder if are they people have come from big

267
00:12:55,724 --> 00:12:57,844
Speaker 1: families or people who went to boarding school. You're a

268
00:12:57,844 --> 00:12:58,404
Speaker 1: bit of both.

269
00:12:58,564 --> 00:12:58,764
Speaker 2: Yeah.

270
00:12:58,804 --> 00:13:02,884
Speaker 4: I went to a big family and boarding school, and you, yeah,

271
00:13:03,484 --> 00:13:05,884
Speaker 4: you just had to go, you know, you.

272
00:13:05,884 --> 00:13:06,604
Speaker 2: Go to the toilet.

273
00:13:06,644 --> 00:13:08,084
Speaker 4: That's what you had to do because you lived at

274
00:13:08,084 --> 00:13:12,124
Speaker 4: the school, That's right. So that was difficult and in

275
00:13:12,164 --> 00:13:15,404
Speaker 4: the workplace as well. I remember I used to work

276
00:13:15,444 --> 00:13:20,244
Speaker 4: at a factory making aluminion casings for various things, and

277
00:13:20,284 --> 00:13:22,484
Speaker 4: you'd run off to the duney to go and kill

278
00:13:22,524 --> 00:13:24,364
Speaker 4: twenty minutes, and then you have the boss being on

279
00:13:24,364 --> 00:13:24,764
Speaker 4: the door, what.

280
00:13:24,684 --> 00:13:25,404
Speaker 2: Are you doing in there?

281
00:13:25,764 --> 00:13:28,244
Speaker 4: Because you've been off the factory line for twenty minutes,

282
00:13:30,124 --> 00:13:32,764
Speaker 4: and I think with the in the main office here,

283
00:13:33,124 --> 00:13:38,124
Speaker 4: I try not to do a WP explain a work pooh, because.

284
00:13:37,844 --> 00:13:39,124
Speaker 2: You know there's a good chance you got to run

285
00:13:39,124 --> 00:13:40,083
Speaker 2: into someone that you know in.

286
00:13:40,044 --> 00:13:43,444
Speaker 1: There that worry you. Girls would rather go into witness

287
00:13:43,484 --> 00:13:46,884
Speaker 1: protection than have to do that. How But what guys

288
00:13:46,924 --> 00:13:47,764
Speaker 1: don't seem to mind.

289
00:13:48,004 --> 00:13:49,444
Speaker 2: And then there's some people like Brad.

290
00:13:49,764 --> 00:13:52,564
Speaker 4: He one day I understood the urinal and he walks

291
00:13:52,604 --> 00:13:55,764
Speaker 4: into Go for a Borrington and he's just chatting away

292
00:13:55,804 --> 00:13:56,964
Speaker 4: and then he's doing a big pooh.

293
00:13:57,004 --> 00:13:59,364
Speaker 2: You know that. I don't stop. Stop. I don't want

294
00:13:59,404 --> 00:14:00,404
Speaker 2: to hear. I don't want to know this.

295
00:14:00,564 --> 00:14:01,284
Speaker 1: I don't want to know.

296
00:14:01,564 --> 00:14:04,284
Speaker 4: But he's talking to me while he's going through emotions,

297
00:14:04,444 --> 00:14:06,124
Speaker 4: and I'm sitting there and I'm thinking, well, and I'm

298
00:14:06,164 --> 00:14:08,083
Speaker 4: washing my hands. I'm thinking, well, at what point do

299
00:14:08,204 --> 00:14:10,244
Speaker 4: I wrap this conversation?

300
00:14:10,804 --> 00:14:10,963
Speaker 5: Now?

301
00:14:11,004 --> 00:14:12,204
Speaker 1: I should this one up.

302
00:14:12,244 --> 00:14:15,404
Speaker 4: He can't see me, but I'm outside and he's going anyway,

303
00:14:15,404 --> 00:14:15,924
Speaker 4: what about that?

304
00:14:17,404 --> 00:14:17,644
Speaker 2: Brad.

305
00:14:17,644 --> 00:14:19,684
Speaker 4: I'm leaving the room now because I didn't want I

306
00:14:19,684 --> 00:14:21,444
Speaker 4: didn't want him to be awkward that I've left the

307
00:14:21,484 --> 00:14:23,164
Speaker 4: room and he's still talking to an empty r.

308
00:14:23,284 --> 00:14:24,524
Speaker 1: That's when you have to say I leave you to

309
00:14:24,564 --> 00:14:29,764
Speaker 1: it drop. This is Remember we used to work another

310
00:14:29,844 --> 00:14:32,644
Speaker 1: radio station that was very masculine, and no one cared.

311
00:14:32,644 --> 00:14:34,164
Speaker 1: The guys just didn't give a right.

312
00:14:34,324 --> 00:14:35,124
Speaker 2: They didn't care at all.

313
00:14:35,204 --> 00:14:38,244
Speaker 1: There's a certain freedom and not caring, but women care enormously.

314
00:14:38,444 --> 00:14:38,644
Speaker 2: Yep.

315
00:14:38,884 --> 00:14:41,524
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well when we worked at that particular radio station,

316
00:14:41,764 --> 00:14:44,124
Speaker 4: and I go in there in the toilet for a smoke,

317
00:14:44,564 --> 00:14:46,604
Speaker 4: and there's back when I used to smoke, So weed

318
00:14:46,604 --> 00:14:47,924
Speaker 4: all go in for a smoke.

319
00:14:48,204 --> 00:14:54,284
Speaker 2: I remember the boss, Dobbo, me and Gibbo because I

320
00:14:54,284 --> 00:14:58,244
Speaker 2: know this story. He goes, he says, are you guys

321
00:14:58,244 --> 00:15:01,724
Speaker 2: coming in for a smoke? And no, but I'll go

322
00:15:01,844 --> 00:15:02,844
Speaker 2: in for a shit.

323
00:15:04,524 --> 00:15:05,404
Speaker 1: A social poop.

324
00:15:06,284 --> 00:15:08,804
Speaker 2: Yes, we're having a smoke, and Gibbo's just in the

325
00:15:09,644 --> 00:15:10,444
Speaker 2: having a Barrington.

326
00:15:10,964 --> 00:15:14,124
Speaker 1: My youngest son was working at a pub and it

327
00:15:14,204 --> 00:15:16,404
Speaker 1: annoyed him that he didn't like the idea that half

328
00:15:16,404 --> 00:15:18,924
Speaker 1: the cubicles were taken up by people doing drugs right

329
00:15:18,964 --> 00:15:21,524
Speaker 1: when he's trying to work. So he'd go on his break,

330
00:15:21,604 --> 00:15:23,564
Speaker 1: sit on his phone and do a number two and

331
00:15:23,604 --> 00:15:27,164
Speaker 1: people were snorting expensive drugs all around him while he

332
00:15:27,244 --> 00:15:29,564
Speaker 1: was just stinking up the place. That was his kind

333
00:15:29,604 --> 00:15:30,284
Speaker 1: of revenge.

334
00:15:30,924 --> 00:15:32,764
Speaker 4: And that's the weird thing where you say Cavali. You know,

335
00:15:32,764 --> 00:15:36,484
Speaker 4: I'm a big mate mate tone. We're one day at

336
00:15:36,484 --> 00:15:39,444
Speaker 4: his house and he lives just down the ray from

337
00:15:39,484 --> 00:15:42,324
Speaker 4: a pizza hut, and we're getting pizzas. So we walked

338
00:15:42,324 --> 00:15:44,484
Speaker 4: down to the pizza hut and while we're to pick

339
00:15:44,524 --> 00:15:45,924
Speaker 4: up the pizza and the guy said, oh, mate, there'll

340
00:15:45,924 --> 00:15:48,484
Speaker 4: be another six or seven minutes, and he goes, I'll

341
00:15:48,484 --> 00:15:50,004
Speaker 4: just go next door to the dunny. I said, we're

342
00:15:50,004 --> 00:15:51,844
Speaker 4: just at your house, and he goes, yeah, I'll go

343
00:15:51,924 --> 00:15:56,124
Speaker 4: to do a shit, which Brandon please. So that's him

344
00:15:56,164 --> 00:16:00,444
Speaker 4: talking of course sorry, And I said, hey, god, your house.

345
00:16:00,284 --> 00:16:03,284
Speaker 2: Is like literally one hundred meters away. Why wouldn't you

346
00:16:03,324 --> 00:16:05,324
Speaker 2: wait till you got home? And he didn't care.

347
00:16:05,364 --> 00:16:07,924
Speaker 4: He just picked up Drum magazine and walked into the

348
00:16:07,964 --> 00:16:12,804
Speaker 4: pub toilet for a pub poop. Who does that except

349
00:16:12,884 --> 00:16:13,244
Speaker 4: your son?

350
00:16:13,284 --> 00:16:15,844
Speaker 1: In big tone, Well, my son was working, didn't have

351
00:16:15,884 --> 00:16:16,284
Speaker 1: an option.

352
00:16:16,524 --> 00:16:17,644
Speaker 2: Yeah, but didn't you have to go?

353
00:16:17,764 --> 00:16:21,164
Speaker 4: And it wasn't a situation you had to go to

354
00:16:21,444 --> 00:16:24,324
Speaker 4: a pub at inner city pub and do a number two?

355
00:16:25,324 --> 00:16:28,044
Speaker 1: Yeah you were telling me about it, Okay, you don't

356
00:16:28,084 --> 00:16:31,724
Speaker 1: share the news. People to think I don't have normal

357
00:16:31,764 --> 00:16:32,604
Speaker 1: bodily function.

358
00:16:32,724 --> 00:16:34,484
Speaker 4: You didn't walk in a drum media though, you walked

359
00:16:34,524 --> 00:16:37,444
Speaker 4: in with the form guide.

360
00:16:39,444 --> 00:16:41,324
Speaker 1: I hope you've enjoyed this delightful conversation.

361
00:16:41,964 --> 00:16:48,604
Speaker 4: Sorry on the cutting room floor, the stuff that we

362
00:16:48,644 --> 00:16:50,364
Speaker 4: couldn't get to on today's show.

363
00:16:50,564 --> 00:16:54,604
Speaker 1: Who asked you a simple question? Do you practice witchcraft?

364
00:16:55,084 --> 00:16:59,084
Speaker 1: You don't think you do, but maybe you do, and

365
00:16:59,324 --> 00:17:03,364
Speaker 1: maybe you have. Do you want me to keep going

366
00:17:03,364 --> 00:17:03,884
Speaker 1: with theatric?

367
00:17:04,283 --> 00:17:07,884
Speaker 4: I don't know my over selling getting the villagers together here.

368
00:17:07,964 --> 00:17:10,843
Speaker 1: I want to put your head on a stick. Well,

369
00:17:11,124 --> 00:17:13,964
Speaker 1: these are I saw a list of these childhood habits

370
00:17:13,964 --> 00:17:18,044
Speaker 1: that were actually witchcraft, childhood habits that we did as kids,

371
00:17:18,044 --> 00:17:19,724
Speaker 1: and our kids probably did them too, But I'll tell

372
00:17:19,724 --> 00:17:23,684
Speaker 1: you what their origins were. Sleeping with a favorite stuffed animal.

373
00:17:24,204 --> 00:17:27,804
Speaker 1: Every kid does that, but apparently this wasn't just comfort,

374
00:17:28,364 --> 00:17:31,924
Speaker 1: it was spell work for protection. Should we have some

375
00:17:31,964 --> 00:17:36,564
Speaker 1: oogity boogide music and some ethereal music, probably some ethereal

376
00:17:36,644 --> 00:17:41,364
Speaker 1: music the theme from Bewitched.

377
00:17:41,604 --> 00:17:46,084
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's a witch, hot witch, too compliant.

378
00:17:46,164 --> 00:17:47,804
Speaker 2: She was a compliant, She's a witch.

379
00:17:47,804 --> 00:17:50,524
Speaker 1: She would do the housework all right, and she wouldn't.

380
00:17:50,244 --> 00:17:53,204
Speaker 4: Use her magic powers, although if I was married to her,

381
00:17:53,404 --> 00:17:56,124
Speaker 4: I would say that, Okay, honey, let's conjurrupt some.

382
00:17:56,404 --> 00:17:57,803
Speaker 1: What would you conjure up more money so I had

383
00:17:57,804 --> 00:18:00,724
Speaker 1: a better house? Yeah, animal, if she could conjure up something,

384
00:18:00,764 --> 00:18:02,244
Speaker 1: wouldn't she have a more handsome husband?

385
00:18:03,244 --> 00:18:05,004
Speaker 2: I thought he was all right?

386
00:18:05,284 --> 00:18:11,364
Speaker 1: Nah, iteration and iteration too were both ugly.

387
00:18:11,484 --> 00:18:13,724
Speaker 2: Well, they were both Dick York and then Dick Sergeant.

388
00:18:13,764 --> 00:18:18,684
Speaker 1: They changed dis She liked Dick but needed a different one, Dick.

389
00:18:18,804 --> 00:18:23,604
Speaker 1: Let's get let's get baked to this sleeping with a

390
00:18:23,724 --> 00:18:25,964
Speaker 1: favorite stuffed animal. It wasn't just comfort, as I said,

391
00:18:25,964 --> 00:18:29,964
Speaker 1: It was spell work for protection. Children intuitively charge objects

392
00:18:30,004 --> 00:18:34,244
Speaker 1: with emotion, turning them into guardians, and it's an adult.

393
00:18:34,284 --> 00:18:36,364
Speaker 1: You can recreate this by keeping a small charm or

394
00:18:36,444 --> 00:18:40,164
Speaker 1: crystal on your pillow, letting it absorb your energy each night.

395
00:18:40,204 --> 00:18:42,884
Speaker 2: Do you do that? Brendan Matt Brocky was into the crystals.

396
00:18:42,924 --> 00:18:45,004
Speaker 2: Remember I think that's been holding.

397
00:18:44,724 --> 00:18:46,204
Speaker 4: The cut him loose when he said, you know what,

398
00:18:46,404 --> 00:18:49,043
Speaker 4: We've got to put some crystals in the cars and holding.

399
00:18:49,524 --> 00:18:51,564
Speaker 2: Okay, mate, maybe you can just get Peter.

400
00:18:52,044 --> 00:18:54,324
Speaker 1: They would just get a girl called Crystal to sit

401
00:18:54,364 --> 00:18:54,804
Speaker 1: in the car.

402
00:18:55,604 --> 00:18:57,244
Speaker 2: I think that was the problem.

403
00:18:57,284 --> 00:19:01,204
Speaker 1: That what about this one? Wishing on the first Star?

404
00:19:01,804 --> 00:19:04,924
Speaker 1: Classic celestial magic, and you know it's old world magic

405
00:19:04,924 --> 00:19:09,884
Speaker 1: because it's spelled m A g ic K. Children believe

406
00:19:09,924 --> 00:19:13,844
Speaker 1: the first Star listens more closely, and many traditions say

407
00:19:13,884 --> 00:19:17,684
Speaker 1: it does. You can return to this by speaking one clear,

408
00:19:17,684 --> 00:19:20,844
Speaker 1: simple wish to the night sky and trusting the timing.

409
00:19:21,524 --> 00:19:23,164
Speaker 2: Remind me when it's bin night.

410
00:19:24,204 --> 00:19:28,204
Speaker 1: Blowing on dandelions. You thought this was just making a wish,

411
00:19:28,404 --> 00:19:31,283
Speaker 1: but blowing dandelion seeds is an old form of air

412
00:19:31,404 --> 00:19:34,364
Speaker 1: magic with a K on the end. Each seed carries

413
00:19:34,404 --> 00:19:37,884
Speaker 1: your intention into the universe. You can do it consciously

414
00:19:37,924 --> 00:19:40,204
Speaker 1: now by whispering what you want and visualizing the seeds

415
00:19:40,204 --> 00:19:44,444
Speaker 1: delivering it to the right place. Making potions out of

416
00:19:44,524 --> 00:19:47,284
Speaker 1: leaves and petals. Have you ever done that? No, I've

417
00:19:47,284 --> 00:19:47,644
Speaker 1: seen you.

418
00:19:47,604 --> 00:19:49,724
Speaker 2: Cook when I was at art school with the gets

419
00:19:49,724 --> 00:19:52,563
Speaker 2: some waves in wed what Brendan nothing?

420
00:19:53,444 --> 00:19:56,763
Speaker 1: This was your first bit of kitchen witchcraft. Kids, stir, combine,

421
00:19:56,804 --> 00:20:00,004
Speaker 1: and mix with pure intention, which is the essence of spellcraft.

422
00:20:00,564 --> 00:20:03,324
Speaker 1: Try recreating this energy by making a simple herb infusion

423
00:20:03,364 --> 00:20:05,564
Speaker 1: while focusing on what you want to call in interesting

424
00:20:05,564 --> 00:20:07,844
Speaker 1: as they say, they call it witchcraft when women healed

425
00:20:07,884 --> 00:20:09,604
Speaker 1: with herbs, but science and a man put it in

426
00:20:09,644 --> 00:20:15,044
Speaker 1: a pill right on staring into the rain from a window.

427
00:20:15,444 --> 00:20:20,523
Speaker 1: This is early scrying, s c R. Why I and

428
00:20:20,604 --> 00:20:24,604
Speaker 1: you haven't heard across gazing into natural movement to slip

429
00:20:24,644 --> 00:20:26,364
Speaker 1: into a soft intuitive state.

430
00:20:26,484 --> 00:20:27,323
Speaker 2: It's nice, isn't it.

431
00:20:27,484 --> 00:20:29,684
Speaker 1: You can bring this back by sitting quietly during rainfall,

432
00:20:29,764 --> 00:20:32,444
Speaker 1: letting your mind wander upon clarity. Blah blah blah, blah blah.

433
00:20:32,564 --> 00:20:34,523
Speaker 1: I've got one of those apps that I've downloaded. I

434
00:20:34,524 --> 00:20:36,803
Speaker 1: haven't had to use it yet, that we recreate the

435
00:20:36,844 --> 00:20:37,684
Speaker 1: sound of rain.

436
00:20:39,004 --> 00:20:40,084
Speaker 2: And you do you use that?

437
00:20:40,164 --> 00:20:40,283
Speaker 5: No?

438
00:20:40,324 --> 00:20:43,244
Speaker 1: Because it makes me anxious. I haven't closed the forgola.

439
00:20:47,004 --> 00:20:49,044
Speaker 2: This one. You don't You for gola open all night?

440
00:20:49,404 --> 00:20:53,044
Speaker 1: Talking to the moon stop that, That's what I say.

441
00:20:54,004 --> 00:20:57,444
Speaker 2: Kids do that.

442
00:20:57,604 --> 00:21:00,044
Speaker 1: Kids naturally speak to the moon because if it listens,

443
00:21:00,044 --> 00:21:04,524
Speaker 1: because energetically it does. I've never spoken, well, you would

444
00:21:04,524 --> 00:21:05,084
Speaker 1: have as a kid.

445
00:21:05,644 --> 00:21:06,364
Speaker 2: I know I didn't.

446
00:21:06,684 --> 00:21:08,724
Speaker 4: I know myself as a kid, I speak to any

447
00:21:08,724 --> 00:21:10,404
Speaker 4: of the and I never spoke.

448
00:21:10,164 --> 00:21:10,644
Speaker 2: To the moon.

449
00:21:10,764 --> 00:21:13,164
Speaker 1: I've seen I imagine you, as a kid would have

450
00:21:13,164 --> 00:21:16,004
Speaker 1: looked for the man in the moon. Yeah, definitely, And

451
00:21:16,044 --> 00:21:19,644
Speaker 1: I reckon your neighbors would have stopped you mooning. Collecting

452
00:21:19,684 --> 00:21:23,724
Speaker 1: special rocks was your first crystal practice. I can see

453
00:21:23,764 --> 00:21:26,244
Speaker 1: you getting bored. How about one more? Drawing symbols on

454
00:21:26,284 --> 00:21:29,363
Speaker 1: a fogged up window? D and B doesn't count, Brendon,

455
00:21:29,844 --> 00:21:34,283
Speaker 1: you were unknowingly casting siggles, sigils, s I g oh,

456
00:21:34,284 --> 00:21:37,004
Speaker 1: don't yet, don't wrap me up? S I G I

457
00:21:37,124 --> 00:21:41,364
Speaker 1: l s. Kids draw hearts, swells and shapes that carry emotional.

458
00:21:41,044 --> 00:21:43,164
Speaker 2: Meaning and a good old D n B.

459
00:21:44,204 --> 00:21:45,204
Speaker 1: Why do I bother?

460
00:21:46,324 --> 00:21:51,763
Speaker 2: Maybe should go and talk to Uranus bee witch bee

461
00:21:51,764 --> 00:22:14,724
Speaker 2: witch be witch be witch bee witch on the cutting

462
00:22:14,804 --> 00:22:15,724
Speaker 2: room floor today.

463
00:22:16,084 --> 00:22:18,523
Speaker 1: Now this probably is rage bait, but I'm going to

464
00:22:18,564 --> 00:22:22,404
Speaker 1: read it out anyway. Testos, which is a UK supermarket,

465
00:22:23,004 --> 00:22:27,164
Speaker 1: has renamed its Christmas trees evergreen Trees, and they're calling

466
00:22:27,244 --> 00:22:32,803
Speaker 1: Christmas cake fruitcake, and people are saying, why are you

467
00:22:32,844 --> 00:22:37,884
Speaker 1: stripping us of our traditions discuss Furious customers have branded

468
00:22:37,884 --> 00:22:41,804
Speaker 1: the store hypocritical, suggesting it's rebranding Christmas. But someone has said, hey,

469
00:22:41,804 --> 00:22:44,004
Speaker 1: test Gooes, you don't want to have Christmas anymore, but

470
00:22:44,044 --> 00:22:47,603
Speaker 1: you'll still take our money, you know all that.

471
00:22:47,644 --> 00:22:50,924
Speaker 4: Yes, I was in at my local km art store

472
00:22:51,004 --> 00:22:55,244
Speaker 4: and they had festive tree instead of Christmas tree.

473
00:22:56,044 --> 00:22:58,924
Speaker 1: What percentage of our population. I know we're multicultural and

474
00:22:59,004 --> 00:23:04,044
Speaker 1: different religions, etc. And people who don't have religious affiliations, but.

475
00:23:04,044 --> 00:23:06,004
Speaker 2: I think celebrate Christmas.

476
00:23:06,244 --> 00:23:09,763
Speaker 1: But people would still accept the nature of a Christmas

477
00:23:09,804 --> 00:23:11,484
Speaker 1: tree at Christmas. You either have one or you don't.

478
00:23:11,484 --> 00:23:13,724
Speaker 1: No one's you don't need to rename them.

479
00:23:13,764 --> 00:23:15,844
Speaker 2: No, And you're right about the rage bait.

480
00:23:15,884 --> 00:23:17,644
Speaker 4: I don't know if then this is when it comes

481
00:23:17,644 --> 00:23:19,444
Speaker 4: down to virtual virtue signaling.

482
00:23:19,484 --> 00:23:20,924
Speaker 2: When big corporation.

483
00:23:20,564 --> 00:23:22,524
Speaker 4: Does that mean, Well, it means that, hang on, I'm

484
00:23:22,564 --> 00:23:26,204
Speaker 4: going to before there's any offense taken right or caused,

485
00:23:26,284 --> 00:23:28,604
Speaker 4: I'm going to nip it in the butt and that

486
00:23:28,684 --> 00:23:29,083
Speaker 4: happens all.

487
00:23:29,724 --> 00:23:31,323
Speaker 1: I saw a story this week and I'm glad we

488
00:23:31,364 --> 00:23:34,244
Speaker 1: didn't do it on our show. Some other radio stations did.

489
00:23:35,244 --> 00:23:37,564
Speaker 1: Now we're being asked to ask our babies permission before

490
00:23:37,604 --> 00:23:40,964
Speaker 1: you change a nappy. It's just rage bait. The papers

491
00:23:41,044 --> 00:23:43,484
Speaker 1: lean into this too. There'll be one person who wants

492
00:23:43,524 --> 00:23:46,524
Speaker 1: to stop kids singing Christmas carols and that'll be the headline.

493
00:23:46,524 --> 00:23:48,364
Speaker 4: Well, there was one time, keep it in perspective on

494
00:23:48,364 --> 00:23:51,004
Speaker 4: the talk back radio stations. I had a thing about

495
00:23:51,044 --> 00:23:53,564
Speaker 4: how they were going to cancel Easter East was gone,

496
00:23:55,124 --> 00:23:55,804
Speaker 4: and that was the thing.

497
00:23:56,044 --> 00:23:57,363
Speaker 2: And then when you got to the number of it,

498
00:23:57,404 --> 00:23:58,563
Speaker 2: no one had suggested it.

499
00:23:58,684 --> 00:23:58,884
Speaker 1: No.

500
00:23:58,964 --> 00:24:01,964
Speaker 2: But what it does is people buy into it. They

501
00:24:02,004 --> 00:24:04,763
Speaker 2: ring up the radio station, they're outraged. I can't believe this.

502
00:24:04,924 --> 00:24:08,204
Speaker 1: You know, the media outlets like we feel, we feel

503
00:24:08,204 --> 00:24:11,004
Speaker 1: three hours a day. Media outlets and content creators are

504
00:24:11,044 --> 00:24:13,644
Speaker 1: looking for stuff to talk about constantly, so they lean

505
00:24:13,684 --> 00:24:15,204
Speaker 1: into this stuff because it fills the space.

506
00:24:15,244 --> 00:24:17,124
Speaker 4: Well, we could make up all sorts of stuff, and

507
00:24:17,164 --> 00:24:18,364
Speaker 4: this is what Joe Rogan does.

508
00:24:18,604 --> 00:24:20,724
Speaker 2: Joe Rogan is very good as a podcaster.

509
00:24:20,724 --> 00:24:23,283
Speaker 4: Of what he does is he asks people's questions about

510
00:24:23,364 --> 00:24:27,684
Speaker 4: anything from vaccine efficacy to Donald Trump's election campaign chance

511
00:24:28,044 --> 00:24:30,124
Speaker 4: and what he does he tells people what they.

512
00:24:29,964 --> 00:24:33,564
Speaker 2: Want to hear. So in a way, we could quite

513
00:24:33,604 --> 00:24:34,644
Speaker 2: easily be like that.

514
00:24:34,844 --> 00:24:37,164
Speaker 4: We could say, oh, you know, the vaccines that they

515
00:24:37,244 --> 00:24:39,084
Speaker 4: do cause autism or whatever.

516
00:24:39,604 --> 00:24:41,444
Speaker 2: We could say any of those things. But I don't know.

517
00:24:41,524 --> 00:24:43,564
Speaker 2: I'm not a scientist. I'm just a radio DJ.

518
00:24:43,844 --> 00:24:47,043
Speaker 1: But I do I do appreciate the science.

519
00:24:46,804 --> 00:24:47,684
Speaker 2: Of course, you understand.

520
00:24:48,364 --> 00:24:51,043
Speaker 1: But I take this job as a broadcaster. I think

521
00:24:51,084 --> 00:24:54,563
Speaker 1: it's a privilege, and I take it with the responsibility.

522
00:24:54,844 --> 00:24:56,324
Speaker 1: I know, we like our poo and our wee jokes

523
00:24:56,364 --> 00:24:59,444
Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff, but the information matters

524
00:24:59,444 --> 00:25:05,084
Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, And I do not want to disseminate misinformation.

525
00:25:05,764 --> 00:25:07,763
Speaker 4: But I've noticed there's a lot of rage bait in

526
00:25:07,804 --> 00:25:12,004
Speaker 4: the motorcycling world, particularly from various social media posts.

527
00:25:12,124 --> 00:25:14,124
Speaker 2: They'll have a car cut me off, you know.

528
00:25:14,164 --> 00:25:17,484
Speaker 4: Because everyone's got a helmet cam now, and you can

529
00:25:17,524 --> 00:25:20,124
Speaker 4: see the car coming from miles away, and the ride

530
00:25:20,204 --> 00:25:22,884
Speaker 4: is blowing up to likes, and you think, is he

531
00:25:22,964 --> 00:25:25,484
Speaker 4: doing that just to get rage bait because people go, oh,

532
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:29,004
Speaker 4: that's outrageous that this car has cut this motorcycle earth off.

533
00:25:29,044 --> 00:25:31,604
Speaker 4: But in actual fact, the motorcycle has no doubt seeing

534
00:25:31,604 --> 00:25:34,684
Speaker 4: the car. The car certainly hasn't seen him, because that's

535
00:25:34,764 --> 00:25:37,204
Speaker 4: just what happens when you're on a motorcycle. But there's

536
00:25:37,204 --> 00:25:40,804
Speaker 4: this victim mentality which gets put out and becomes rage bait.

537
00:25:41,004 --> 00:25:44,004
Speaker 2: So therefore you get more clicks, more likes, more followers.

538
00:25:44,124 --> 00:25:50,004
Speaker 1: And not just that, the tech companies themselves know that

539
00:25:50,084 --> 00:25:53,604
Speaker 1: people lean in to conflict and anxiety. Exactly, you stay

540
00:25:53,604 --> 00:25:56,924
Speaker 1: online longer and they make more money that way. And

541
00:25:56,964 --> 00:25:59,563
Speaker 1: so even simple things like a woman I saw the

542
00:25:59,604 --> 00:26:05,484
Speaker 1: other day who was making a tiramassu in her vegetable crisp. Yeah,

543
00:26:05,804 --> 00:26:07,884
Speaker 1: and she said, look how effective this is. And you

544
00:26:07,924 --> 00:26:08,804
Speaker 1: know it's just to in fly.

545
00:26:09,244 --> 00:26:10,524
Speaker 2: It's just rage bait.

546
00:26:10,564 --> 00:26:13,564
Speaker 4: And now remember the old days when you had you

547
00:26:13,644 --> 00:26:15,724
Speaker 4: just followed what you followed, that would all pop up

548
00:26:15,764 --> 00:26:19,124
Speaker 4: in your feed. Now the algorithm just gives you whatever

549
00:26:19,404 --> 00:26:22,283
Speaker 4: that you click on, good, bad or ugly. If you

550
00:26:22,364 --> 00:26:25,804
Speaker 4: click on it, that picks up your what you're into.

551
00:26:25,924 --> 00:26:29,964
Speaker 1: And you know what, Apparently your screen it follows your

552
00:26:30,004 --> 00:26:33,164
Speaker 1: finger scrolling. So even if you're clicking on something just

553
00:26:33,204 --> 00:26:36,164
Speaker 1: out of curiosity, it will register that, which is why

554
00:26:36,244 --> 00:26:37,244
Speaker 1: you get flooded.

555
00:26:36,844 --> 00:26:37,563
Speaker 2: With more and more of it.

556
00:26:37,924 --> 00:26:41,763
Speaker 1: So I try not to lean into my lower self

557
00:26:41,804 --> 00:26:44,523
Speaker 1: by clicking on clickbait yep, because that just feeds on it.

558
00:26:44,524 --> 00:26:48,284
Speaker 4: But also on that on have you seen those all

559
00:26:48,324 --> 00:26:51,444
Speaker 4: those phone bots. So you've got places like China where

560
00:26:51,484 --> 00:26:56,204
Speaker 4: they've got just banks and banks of phones, Android phones,

561
00:26:56,604 --> 00:27:00,523
Speaker 4: and there I've got fake Instagram accounts and their ais

562
00:27:00,764 --> 00:27:04,124
Speaker 4: making them comment, So they're fighting with each other, fighting

563
00:27:04,164 --> 00:27:04,644
Speaker 4: with humans.

564
00:27:04,644 --> 00:27:08,324
Speaker 1: So if it's not for political gain or what's its gain,

565
00:27:08,484 --> 00:27:09,843
Speaker 1: is it just to keep people online?

566
00:27:09,924 --> 00:27:12,964
Speaker 4: Long y, Yes, And it's all about advertising as sure

567
00:27:12,964 --> 00:27:15,604
Speaker 4: as we do. And we're probably a bit more thick

568
00:27:15,644 --> 00:27:17,884
Speaker 4: skinned about it because we've been in this business for

569
00:27:17,884 --> 00:27:20,244
Speaker 4: a long time. And when I first started, they used

570
00:27:20,244 --> 00:27:23,964
Speaker 4: to say sell the sizzle, not the steak. So the

571
00:27:24,044 --> 00:27:26,283
Speaker 4: thing was about what the smell of the steak is.

572
00:27:26,324 --> 00:27:28,724
Speaker 4: It's not about the actual the actual steak. That's not

573
00:27:28,764 --> 00:27:32,404
Speaker 4: what you're selling. You want people to go five minutes

574
00:27:32,444 --> 00:27:35,364
Speaker 4: more so someone will listen to this, and you want

575
00:27:35,444 --> 00:27:38,204
Speaker 4: them to stick around, so they have to listen to

576
00:27:38,364 --> 00:27:40,803
Speaker 4: five minutes of ads and then they'll come back. You

577
00:27:40,884 --> 00:27:43,444
Speaker 4: have to be that compelling that people will come through.

578
00:27:43,804 --> 00:27:46,244
Speaker 4: What's happened in time. Now you've got pop ups that

579
00:27:46,284 --> 00:27:48,204
Speaker 4: come up on your screen. There's all sorts of different

580
00:27:48,284 --> 00:27:51,364
Speaker 4: advertising that pops up, but it's all part of the algorithm.

581
00:27:51,404 --> 00:27:53,164
Speaker 1: I stopped listening when you said steak because I'm a

582
00:27:53,164 --> 00:27:55,684
Speaker 1: little bit hungry. So who's selling that steak?

583
00:27:55,724 --> 00:27:59,644
Speaker 2: Then Boon Star Steakhouse and Salot that I waited for.

584
00:27:59,604 --> 00:28:14,444
Speaker 5: That awesome more Jonesy and Unmanas honing

585
00:28:16,204 --> 00:28:16,604
Speaker 2: Floor
