Speaker 1: Is it just me a podcast by a couple of midges?
Speaker 2: How holl are you?
Speaker 3: Hallo, Mitchell Coupe, how are you? What's been happening?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Look at me? Do I have an Adelaide glow about me?
Speaker 2: A brown wine region?
Speaker 3: What did you think? What did you think? Because I've
Speaker 3: been banging on about how much I do Adelaide for
Speaker 3: so long and you think I'm a loser for it.
Speaker 2: You have and I'd never been, and I was kind
Speaker 2: of ashamed of it, but also like it didn't really
Speaker 2: bother me that I'd not ever been to Adelaide, which
Speaker 2: is I'm a shamed to say, but I am converted.
Speaker 2: That play God is absolutely beautiful. And I don't know
Speaker 2: what you thought when you went there for the first time,
Speaker 2: but it's gorgeous. It's laiden back, like the architecture is stunning.
Speaker 2: You've got like thirty minutes to wine region, thirty minutes
Speaker 2: to the beach, great food, great cafes, and it's on
Speaker 2: the up and up, like Adelaide. I was there. I
Speaker 2: was flown down by Essay Tourism, and the head of
Speaker 2: Essay Tourism is like, no, we got something to prove,
Speaker 2: So like you want good food. We guarantee we are
Speaker 2: investing to have the best food you want, a good hotel,
Speaker 2: we're investing. Like they're putting money into the States to
Speaker 2: make it compete with Sydney Melbourne. So they're like they've
Speaker 2: got a flame under their asses, and I'm gloving it.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I feel like they were probably putting on quite a
Speaker 3: show for you to try and win you over. But
Speaker 3: even someone like me who's been there a few times
Speaker 3: and they weren't, you know, going above and beyond it,
Speaker 3: I was still impressed. I absolutely love it. I think
Speaker 3: the first time I went was when I was like
Speaker 3: thirteen or fourteen or something on a family holiday. But
Speaker 3: then I went again recently for my comedy shows, and oh,
Speaker 3: I just adored it. There was one hiccup, though, I
Speaker 3: will say what happened. Well, you know that river cruise
Speaker 3: thing that goes around the Adelaide River, goes past Adelaide Oval,
Speaker 3: all that shit. Yeah, Sean and I booked one of
Speaker 3: the river cruises and we paid extra for the Devonsha
Speaker 3: tee package.
Speaker 2: Gorgeous.
Speaker 3: We got on board and they said we've run out
Speaker 3: of scones and we'd pre ordered our chocolate chip scones
Speaker 3: on the and I was absolutely shattered. I was really
Speaker 3: looking forward to my quaint experience of being on a
Speaker 3: gorgeous river cruise with a scone and a cup of tea.
Speaker 3: But you know, all's well, that ends well they partially
Speaker 3: refunded me. How good is that?
Speaker 2: See that that is Adelaide. Sydney had like, hey, we're
Speaker 2: out of scones. Fuck you pay double, you know, like
Speaker 2: Adelaide three funds. Yeah, deal with it.
Speaker 6: Prick.
Speaker 2: Melbourne would deconstruct it like they'd be like the tea
Speaker 2: water is taken from the river and the tea bag
Speaker 2: is actually a metaphor. There's no They'd.
Speaker 3: Give you some flour and a bottle of lemonade and
Speaker 3: be like make your own fucking scones.
Speaker 2: Very true. I just loved it. I just I went
Speaker 2: on a little scooter ride around the CBD. You had
Speaker 2: like half an hour to kill so.
Speaker 3: Oh those things scare me. Though I've never done the
Speaker 3: scooter thing.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize like, thank God, I've got all these
Speaker 2: during idiots in my DMS, because they put up I'm
Speaker 2: gonna go on a scooter ride. And there were orange
Speaker 2: ones and purple ones, and I thought they were just
Speaker 2: different brands, right, yeah, like different companies. But I think
Speaker 2: Orange is super fast, Purple is slow. So I got
Speaker 2: an Orange one. Oh sho, this is zooming around. Everyone's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you did well because the Purple ones you just don't
Speaker 2: go anywhere. So thank you to the Juran idiots that
Speaker 2: gave me some recommendations. I even met some.
Speaker 3: Mitch, you have to do. You have a lot of
Speaker 3: listeners in Adelaide, don't we?
Speaker 2: So many, so many, which it makes sense. Chill, it's
Speaker 2: laid back, everyone's horning. They've got nothing else to do.
Speaker 3: So and then I take themselves too seriously like Adelaide.
Speaker 3: You know, they are what they are. They're not up
Speaker 3: themselves and it's just fucking gorgeous and underrated totally.
Speaker 2: And I met Sam Smith, which was.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, gorgeous.
Speaker 2: Sam actually said that they think that sa Adelaide is
Speaker 2: their favorite place in Australia because it reminded them of Sicily.
Speaker 2: And they did say they just finished watching White Lotus,
Speaker 2: which so have I. But it gives Sicilyan vibes. And
Speaker 2: I know you're probably thinking I'm embellishing once again, but
Speaker 2: you go to White Region like no.
Speaker 3: I love Adelaide, but really it's like Sicily, Like Sisily's
Speaker 3: got the gorgeous crystal clear waters. Adelaide River is essentially mud.
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, get out of the river.
Speaker 2: I'm talking wine region and like the oceans like nimclaren
Speaker 2: Vale and the Barossa, they're are vineyards.
Speaker 3: Now that's something I haven't done.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you've got to do it. I went
Speaker 2: to the Darrenberg Cube, which is like four different cubes
Speaker 2: stacked on top of each other with a vineyard around
Speaker 2: it and a restaurant inside it is it was truly,
Speaker 2: it was very, very incredible.
Speaker 3: Have I ever told you my dream holiday?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 2: I don't think you ever have. Actually, so I feel like.
Speaker 3: It's something I'm going to have to do, like in retirement,
Speaker 3: because the plan is to go to Adelaide and then
Speaker 3: go to the wine regions and say at Kingsford Homestead,
Speaker 3: which is the house that they filmed Mcloud's Daughters at,
Speaker 3: but they've converted it into this gorgeous hotel like winery
Speaker 3: stay thing. I don't even know if you'd call it
Speaker 3: a hotel.
Speaker 2: Like a bed and breakfast, Yeah, I guess so.
Speaker 3: And then from there I'll catch the gan up to
Speaker 3: Darwin or Alice Springs or something.
Speaker 2: Oh you have met This is the most Bogan holiday ever,
Speaker 2: But I absolutely love it. Do you get that? Do
Speaker 2: you get the full experience? Like they put you in
Speaker 2: a tractor that's on like a roller coaster track and
Speaker 2: does it drive off an edge and then stop and
Speaker 2: then reverse back.
Speaker 3: No, they don't replicate Clamcloud's death.
Speaker 2: No, miss opportunity.
Speaker 3: I will be in my mind.
Speaker 2: Don't worry anyway. South Australian idiots and everyone really we
Speaker 2: love you, Thank you for listening. But you know what,
Speaker 2: my next trip is Perth because I've never been to
Speaker 2: Perth neither, and I feel I'll have a similar reaction
Speaker 2: because we live in our Sydney bubble Mitchell and it's
Speaker 2: beautiful as it is here. You know, it's a big
Speaker 2: white Australia out there. So I loved Essay so much for.
Speaker 3: All its faults. Would you concur that when you fly
Speaker 3: back into Sydney after being elsewhere, you do still get
Speaker 3: that kind of oh I'm home. You get that feeling
Speaker 3: when you look out the plane window and see Sydney.
Speaker 3: Oh one, it's like Stockhelm syndrome. This place sucks, but
Speaker 3: we love it. Even all the people in Adelaide, they're like,
Speaker 3: where are you from. I'm like Sydney, Like, oh, intimidated
Speaker 3: buy it. They're like, I went, there's too many areas.
Speaker 3: I'm like, you're right, there is too many areas. Did
Speaker 3: you go to the gay club in Adelaide? Mary's Poppin?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good name, though I didn't go.
Speaker 3: I think am I confusing it with the drag queen?
Speaker 3: Is it Mary's Poppin'? Hold on, I'm just googling it.
Speaker 2: Funny name.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mary's Poppin. That's it. It's gorgeous. It's it's like
Speaker 3: so many different levels, so spread out. So if you
Speaker 3: get sick of one dance boy, you go to another.
Speaker 3: Why didn't you do that?
Speaker 2: That would have been right up your alley? No, because
Speaker 2: I was being wined and dined every night. I did
Speaker 2: have a free moment. I was being like jetted around
Speaker 2: on buses and it was a whole thing. But to choose.
Speaker 2: Sorry that the VIP.
Speaker 3: Life anyway, Shut the fuck up about your VIP live.
Speaker 3: What are we doing here? This is the best Bits episode,
Speaker 3: and it's possibly going to be the best of the
Speaker 3: best Bits.
Speaker 2: Yes, it is Mitchell today, we're doing this.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's talkback Tings, the segment where we play all
Speaker 3: of the weird cooked shit that we hear on talkback radio,
Speaker 3: and there's a lot of cookshit that happens on talkback radio.
Speaker 3: This was voted by our listeners. We did a poll
Speaker 3: in our Facebook group. This was voted our best segment ever.
Speaker 3: So we're doing the best of talkback tings today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've never put them all in one place, so
Speaker 2: this is actually good going forward. If you're a fan
Speaker 2: of talkback tings, just go back to this episode and
Speaker 2: you can listen to all the best ones in one
Speaker 2: little bit. So let's start off with this was Oh
Speaker 2: my god, it was in the intro of our show
Speaker 2: for a long time, from episode forty five. This is
Speaker 2: Pike's nursery.
Speaker 3: Yes, this is the famous John Laws talkback king himself.
Speaker 3: This is John Laws versus some deaf old lady that
Speaker 3: called into this show. We've done John Laws before here
Speaker 3: on the show. He's back again. I got one from
Speaker 3: the archives today. It's an old bit of goodie that
Speaker 3: my dad was telling me about. So you know how
Speaker 3: most talkback listeners are ancient, and maybe they don't have Google.
Speaker 3: So this particular audio we're about to hear, an old
Speaker 3: lady called into John Law's and she'd heard an ad
Speaker 3: during the ad break on his show, and she was
Speaker 3: asking for the details. She's like, oh, sorry, I heard
Speaker 3: that ad. What was their phone number?
Speaker 2: Standard?
Speaker 3: So it was an ad for a nursery, Pike's nursery.
Speaker 3: So firstly, how would you spell Pikes.
Speaker 2: P ykes correct?
Speaker 3: So he had a bit of trouble passing that message
Speaker 3: on to her, but he did not give up, So
Speaker 3: strap yourself in. This goes on for a while. He
Speaker 3: was determined to get it to her, and as you know,
Speaker 3: John Law's very little patience. Yes, but he persisted.
Speaker 8: Here it is, I'll tell you what to do ring
Speaker 8: Pikes nurseries. What nursery Pikes Pike? Yes, p y k
Speaker 8: e s I? What am I known to deserve this?

Speaker 8: the telephone number and it's a nursery, is it? Yes?

Speaker 8: got it. I so just dial a telephone number. And
Speaker 8: God helped Bruce Pike.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, they got there and the end, didn't
Speaker 3: they That is the best yet, And that would only
Speaker 3: happen on talkback. Oh hey, for kill I reckon. Halfway
Speaker 3: through he realized this is gold.
Speaker 2: Where was she getting the april?
Speaker 1: I'm never saying the four ka hoow?
Speaker 2: Could they be a number? I've heard him get that
Speaker 2: animated before.
Speaker 3: I know. We'll see this was many years ago, right right, Okay,
Speaker 3: So I understand now why they call him the Man
Speaker 3: with the Golden tonsils, because that was quite a booming.
Speaker 13: Rich boy.
Speaker 2: That was beautiful.
Speaker 3: These days, he doesn't really sound like that anymore.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 3: The reason I've had to dig into the archives as
Speaker 3: well is because his podcast doesn't get updated anymore. There
Speaker 3: hasn't been a new episode.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 3: Well, that's how I usually find shit of his to
Speaker 3: play on talkback teams, because I'm at work when he's
Speaker 3: on air. Ah, That's why most of the stuff comes
Speaker 3: from the night show. And now that John Law's podcast
Speaker 3: has disappeared, I can't find the audio. But also the
Speaker 3: most recent episode, which was mid March. He really doesn't
Speaker 3: sound well really, so play the old one. This is
Speaker 3: what he used to sound like.
Speaker 8: Okay, I'll tell you what to do. Ring Pike's nurseries booming.
Speaker 3: And now particulate. This is him in the most recent
Speaker 3: podcast upload in the.
Speaker 5: Past couple of hours. The World Health Organization has described
Speaker 5: the coronavirus as the defining health crisis of our generation.
Speaker 13: What day are at?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 3: Do you? Oh?
Speaker 5: What they are advocating is regata testing for the virus's
Speaker 5: pressure mounts, for personal restrictions on visits to pubs and
Speaker 5: movie houses and h care homes. Many ANZAC Day commemorations.
Speaker 3: You can tell the turning his mic off to clear,
Speaker 3: but it's still there. Irony, of course, being that he's
Speaker 3: talking about coronavirus.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she sounds like he's on a death a ventilator.
Speaker 2: I know, I know he is up in his eighties, right.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but good on him for still being on air. Right,
Speaker 3: given to go? But just like, how the fuck am
Speaker 3: I supposed to find audio to play on our podcast?
Speaker 3: And he stopped uploading episodes of your podcast? It was
Speaker 3: seventeenth of March, was the last up? That's the last
Speaker 3: podcast episode?
Speaker 2: Poor avid listeners, who can't you know, be up at
Speaker 2: the cracker dawn. They might have medical appointments to see
Speaker 2: to listen to their favorite shock.
Speaker 6: I know.
Speaker 3: Maybe they just assumed that his listeners don't listen to podcasts,
Speaker 3: but they're wrong, here I am, and here I am
Speaker 3: refreshing it going. Come on, mate, why should we call
Speaker 3: them great minds? Thinking light? Yeah, that's actually what I

Speaker 2: I can so calm, cool and collect this is it
Speaker 2: just me?
Speaker 1: Oh my god?
Speaker 3: I forgot that. That used to be a hidden talent
Speaker 3: of yours, Mitchell, just coming up with fake suburb names
Speaker 3: on the spot. Did you hear just then how you
Speaker 3: said that dot was from Wanga Barradine.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: We even made details with my fake suburbs on them.
Speaker 2: That was a real thing for a period there. I
Speaker 2: missed that in my recent trip.
Speaker 3: Have you lost your spark? Can you still do it?
Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, of course I go Bringington Ben. No,
Speaker 2: that's terrible. I lost my spark. I feel like I
Speaker 2: woke up one day and I just couldn't do it anymore.
Speaker 3: You know, I'll go one more chance.
Speaker 2: You're out of practice, okay, Well in Adelaide, Mitchell, I
Speaker 2: used to live in oh, Hassington hillside. That works.
Speaker 3: We're getting warmer, We're getting by the way. I need
Speaker 3: to actually correct myself because a couple of weeks ago
Speaker 3: I said that the first ever time Dot Wiggins came
Speaker 3: to be was when you were prank calling that guy
Speaker 3: that ghosted me. I think that was actually that was
Speaker 3: the inception of Dot. That was the first time you
Speaker 3: ever did DOT when you were calling after the Pike's
Speaker 3: nursery thing. Was that the first Dot, the very first Yes,
Speaker 3: I stand correct it.
Speaker 2: Who were gaslighting people? Well that, yeah, you're right, Actually,
Speaker 2: good call got so long ago. Who remembers now?
Speaker 3: Anyway? Sticking with John Laws, do you remember this Mitch
Speaker 3: back in episode seventy three, which just sets my heart
Speaker 3: on fire. My favorite numbers are three and seven, So
Speaker 3: seventy three, Holy shit.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 3: I adore the fact that this is from episode seventy three.
Speaker 3: This is when we took inspiration from John Laws's poetry,
Speaker 3: because sometimes he just goes rogue and gets a bit
Speaker 3: self indulgent, plays his own poems on his radio show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I think should be some sort of it
Speaker 2: should be illegal, right, like that's cook in the books.
Speaker 2: US is not selling these poems, like if they're in
Speaker 2: Berklour books and he's reading them out on air. You
Speaker 2: know that's a conflict of interest, but I think they're fine. Otherwise,
Speaker 2: I wanted to give it my best shot, so I
Speaker 2: did an improvised poem on the fly, John Laws. But
Speaker 2: it was at the time of the Free Britney movement
Speaker 2: and that was my inspiration. So from episode seventy three
Speaker 2: here is Talkback Tings and my Free Britney poem.
Speaker 3: I heard something during the six hour drive back home
Speaker 3: to Bogenate Wearingham right now, and I thought, oh, that's
Speaker 3: very out there. That's odd, But I'm thinking, Mitch, you
Speaker 3: can implement it into your FM radio world. So John Laws, right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: the King We've heard from him quite a few times.
Speaker 3: In this segment, he was taking a call from someone
Speaker 3: and halfway through he sort of just broke into song.
Speaker 3: What but he wasn't singing. It was more like poetry.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: It sounds weird, but give it a listen. I really think,
Speaker 3: Mitch you should take this on board.
Speaker 2: I don't think I need it. I think my show
Speaker 2: is just fine. But all right, we have the audio.
Speaker 2: This is John Laws on AM Radio.
Speaker 5: One three hundred five six four sixty five two. Should
Speaker 5: you like to give us a call and tell us.
Speaker 2: What sorry that fucking number. Simplify it.
Speaker 3: It's like one three hundred John Laws. It spelled his name.
Speaker 2: The listeners already have damage frontal lobes, like don't make
Speaker 2: them have to hours? Is thirteen one o six five easy?
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure you know when you use the text
Speaker 3: on a Nokia as the letters and numbers would be there.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure one three hundred whatever it is that
Speaker 3: spells one three hundred John Laws. Oh my WSFM.
Speaker 2: Oh that's actually smart. So they catered for that back
Speaker 2: in the day when that was really cool.
Speaker 3: But he doesn't say that. He says the number four
Speaker 3: one three hundred five sixty four six fighter. His listeners can.
Speaker 2: Barely remember to take their blood pressure medication, not alone
Speaker 2: that number. All right here continuing the audio.
Speaker 5: But it is that is on your mind. We better
Speaker 5: talk to Ross Ross. Are you there? Yeah, Mite, Okay,
Speaker 5: what do you want to talk about? Ross? Oh?
Speaker 16: Yeah, just I had a bit of a culture shock
Speaker 16: myself the other day. I drive a truck up and
Speaker 16: down the up the coast and Queensland coast and out
Speaker 16: as far as Mount Eyeser and I was getting ready
Speaker 16: to time in the me truck and the gear bag
Speaker 16: was missed five minutes on the front sets. And I
Speaker 16: come from a country team where you went down the
Speaker 16: pub and you left your wallet and your money on
Speaker 16: the on the bar when you went to the toilet.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and nobody touched a thing.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Oh, god knows what's happened to that lovely attitude we
Speaker 5: used to have in little towns where you could do
Speaker 5: anything you like. You just got to be so careful
Speaker 5: these days because the world has become a much more
Speaker 5: violent place than it You have a much more dishonest
Speaker 5: place than it used to be.
Speaker 16: Yeah, and you know, everyone looked after everyone else.
Speaker 5: That's right, everyone.
Speaker 16: Looked up for everyone up now. It makes a really
Speaker 16: paranorid about people.
Speaker 5: You know, I remember a story I did about little towns.
Speaker 5: I might read that for you. Oh no, okay, Ross,
Speaker 5: turn your radio on and listen, because it's a good
Speaker 5: story about little towns. Are you ready?
Speaker 3: Where do you get a guitar from?
Speaker 18: Let's just think about the magic of the little town.
Speaker 18: A little town is where everybody knows what everybody else
Speaker 18: is doing, but they read the weekly newspaper just to
Speaker 18: see who got caught doing it. A little town is
Speaker 18: where if you get the wrong number, you can talk
Speaker 18: for fifteen minutes anyway if you want to. In any town,
Speaker 18: the ratio of good people to bad people is one
Speaker 18: hundred to one.
Speaker 2: Where'd you get that statistic from?
Speaker 18: Thee hundred are uncomfortable in a little town, the one
Speaker 18: is uncomfortable. A small town policeman has a first name.
Speaker 18: The small town school teacher has the last word. The
Speaker 18: small town preacher sometimes a full time farmer. This small
Speaker 18: town farman takes turns, and you say, why would anybody
Speaker 18: want to live in one of these tiny, blinker New
Speaker 18: Missic towns. I don't know, maybe because in the class
Speaker 18: play there's a part for everybody. What at the town
Speaker 18: jail there's rarely anybody?
Speaker 8: And then.
Speaker 18: You're still among friends.
Speaker 2: Oh my, Mitchell, what did you think when you heard
Speaker 2: that live?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I'll be honest, I did think, what
Speaker 3: the fuck is going on? Where did this come from?
Speaker 3: And I also did think, oh, he's clearly not reading
Speaker 3: that live. His voice sounds way younger.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was in the mid eighties. At least the
Speaker 2: plem wasn't on his throat as well at that point
Speaker 2: in time.
Speaker 3: But then I thought, this is John Laws. We're talking.
Speaker 3: He has been in radio for four hundred years, and
Speaker 3: so there must be some key to his longevity, and
Speaker 3: I feel that that might be the fact that he
Speaker 3: really thinks outside the box. So, Mitchell, I think you
Speaker 3: should take an inspiration from his poetry. I was quite inspired.
Speaker 2: And start some poetry on the night show or the
Speaker 2: national breakfast show that I'm doing.
Speaker 3: No, precisely, that's what I'm thinking. You've got this new
Speaker 3: fancy radio gig. You're doing breakfast hours at the moment,
Speaker 3: and I was thinking you should call your boss and
Speaker 3: find some gentle guitar music similar to what John Laws
Speaker 3: has with the pan Flete and then just say to him, Hey, man,
Speaker 3: I've got this idea. Can you let me know what
Speaker 3: you think of this and then wing it? Just improvise
Speaker 3: something similar to that.
Speaker 2: Hold on, wait a second, now, I don't want to
Speaker 2: implement this in my show. I've got enough content. I'm
Speaker 2: more than a cross it.
Speaker 3: Hey, if it's good enough for the great John Law,
Speaker 3: it's good enough for you, Bucko. Exactly. You can learn
Speaker 3: a thing or two from him. I feel like poetry
Speaker 3: could be your thing.
Speaker 2: I found some music. This is perfect. This is lovely
Speaker 2: sounds like something from Banjo.
Speaker 3: KAZUOI okay, so call you bof dB.
Speaker 2: No, no, I'm going to call my producer. I'm going
Speaker 2: to call my producer, Alex Alex. Yeah, Alex is my
Speaker 2: producer for the Winter Breakfast show that.
Speaker 3: I oh wait, is that the same intern Alex that
Speaker 3: we had on this podcast. We brought her into Oust Jenna.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yes we did, and.
Speaker 3: Then we offered her a role on this podcast as
Speaker 3: a producer, and then she ghosted it.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she fucking did.
Speaker 3: Came never. We did a welfare check and we just
Speaker 3: presumed she was dead. So she's back from the dead
Speaker 3: working on your radio show, is she?
Speaker 2: Yeah, she got the call up. She's my head producer.
Speaker 17: She's alive.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow. I can't believe she faked her own death just
Speaker 3: to get out of working on this podcas Cars, That's unbelieva.
Speaker 3: That's something I would do.
Speaker 2: You should imagine myself when I got a call from
Speaker 2: a number I thought.
Speaker 3: It's as anyway, So maybe call Alex then your producer
Speaker 3: and just say, oh god, this is actually better, because
Speaker 3: she'll be really polite. She won't have the heart to
Speaker 3: tell you that it's fucking stupid. Yeah, like, hey, babe,
Speaker 3: I'm thinking outside the box. I want to bring something
Speaker 3: fresh to the radio show next week.
Speaker 2: What do you think of it?
Speaker 3: And then what do you want your poem to be about?
Speaker 6: Ll?
Speaker 2: Maybe ask her, now, what's what's my poem to be?
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna have to have an idea for a poem?
Speaker 2: What about Princess Diana's mural that?
Speaker 3: Nah, you do better? You do better when you're improvising.
Speaker 3: Maybe ask her to give you a random topic.
Speaker 2: Oh good, Yeah, okay, I'm going to dial her through.
Speaker 2: I'm going to connect my phone so she knows it's me.
Speaker 2: Fucking hell.
Speaker 3: Can I hear the music again?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I've got options. So there's gentle Guitar number three, which
Speaker 2: you've heard. This sounds like the final Ballad of the
Speaker 2: Titanic as it's something to the North Pacific does.
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 3: That one's too emo. It needs to be a bit inspiring. Yeah,
Speaker 3: this one sounds like New Poins panty line if by
Speaker 3: Libra it does?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does. I liked about truth it's true milk
Speaker 2: because I don't want kathium and take from regular milk.
Speaker 2: That's why I drink so good all right, I like three,
Speaker 2: this is it, This is it? Okay, that's it. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna call it, but I'm gonna get her opinion on
Speaker 2: which it's me. You're not you won't speaker phone rule
Speaker 2: number one, like I taught you. Oh, I had an
Speaker 2: idea for the show. I'm thinking, you know how you
Speaker 2: have Tom Gleismer and how he been paying attention Monday. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm thinking on Tuesday, just to like tie into that
Speaker 2: comedy aspec and the fun we should do, Like I
Speaker 2: should do poetry on the air, okay, like live poetry,
Speaker 2: live lyrics about a topic that's current.
Speaker 13: Okay, cool fun.
Speaker 2: It'd be like, yeah, like a like a slam poetry
Speaker 2: kind of thing. Yeah, not even slam, like inspiring, Like
Speaker 2: I want to inspire like like people like kids listening,
Speaker 2: what's topical, what's happening at the mow in like culture? Well,
Speaker 2: I mean you could you know, kind of do something inspiring.
Speaker 6: In terms of Brittany you know Britney Spears, people control you, Oh.
Speaker 2: My god, Britney Spears.
Speaker 13: Coobie.
Speaker 2: I just like get some music out and I like
Speaker 2: i'd sing to music. Ideas.
Speaker 13: It'd be like.
Speaker 19: We knew you from a girl. You tightened, cube, but
Speaker 19: now look at you like an old haggard boot free Brittany.
Speaker 19: Let her out of that cage, Poor poor Brittany. It
Speaker 19: makes me filled with rage.
Speaker 2: Blonde hair, blue eyes, her father doing this.
Speaker 8: I desp.
Speaker 2: Something like that, you know, like a poem, a current,
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, that could work. Or what else is topical?
Speaker 13: Well, I mean royal or topical royals?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You shouldn't have got in
Speaker 2: that taxi cab.
Speaker 8: I'll die.
Speaker 2: Why did you have to die? You would have been
Speaker 2: sixty today. It's the sixty of an adversary of her life.
Speaker 2: There was a statue made for die and it was
Speaker 2: built from concrete.
Speaker 5: And live.
Speaker 2: Concrete and live.
Speaker 15: A beautiful son's attended. Tension was at an all time
Speaker 15: No sign of Queen Lizzie, no sign.
Speaker 2: Philip wasn't there. I guess he probably couldn't, because Philip.
Speaker 1: Died, just like Die.
Speaker 2: Princess died. Yeah. See, I think there's something you die too.
Speaker 18: I love.
Speaker 2: All Right, Well, well we can talk Monday and we'll
Speaker 2: send it to managementcause I reckon that's good to send
Speaker 2: to like dB and the buses.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I love that. Okay, fabulous all.
Speaker 2: Right, thanks Alex, I'll talk to you over the weekend.
Speaker 2: Love you, love you. See thanks the tipsy.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, now that didn't That didn't even feel
Speaker 3: like a prank call. That felt like a genuine fucking brainstorm.
Speaker 3: And you know what, I'm soul I loved it.
Speaker 2: I actually might run that audio on Monday morning.
Speaker 3: That was inspirator.
Speaker 13: Is it just me.
Speaker 2: Listening on Spotify?
Speaker 3: I don't forget to leave a five stark you, Doug.
Speaker 3: We've got so many more best bits of talk back
Speaker 3: teams to come. By the way, John Laws, we did
Speaker 3: actually end up interviewing him at the end. We were
Speaker 3: face to face with the man with the golden tonsils,
Speaker 3: which was just very intimidating. It's back in episode ninety
Speaker 3: four if you want to go listen to that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a lot going on, it was. He
Speaker 2: was in a weird mood. He definitely warmed up by
Speaker 2: the end.
Speaker 3: I'll say that that was the first time I've ever
Speaker 3: seen you struggling in an interview, because you've got the
Speaker 3: gift of the gab. You interview people for a living,
Speaker 3: but you, John's a tough nut to crack, and you
Speaker 3: were just struggling You're used to people just falling in
Speaker 3: love with you from the first sentence, and so you
Speaker 3: were like, it was so funny. You were so out
Speaker 3: of your comfort zone. I'd never seen it before.
Speaker 2: I just couldn't crack him. And then I also was
Speaker 2: very intimidated by him. But I also don't think he
Speaker 2: could hear me. So there was many issues happening at once,
Speaker 2: so I think that was the problem. But we got
Speaker 2: there in the end. We really did well.
Speaker 3: Moving on from John Laws, let's move on to Graham Gilbert,
Speaker 3: who is another talk back radio host at night, and
Speaker 3: he is so prone to prank calls. He's constantly on
Speaker 3: the receiving end of prank calls, and this one that
Speaker 3: we're about to listen to, back from episode fifteen, is
Speaker 3: possibly the best.
Speaker 2: Of the best.
Speaker 3: Today we're not listening to John Laws. We're listening to
Speaker 3: the guy that does the night show on the same station.
Speaker 2: To SM, So I'm competing with him.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, technically your rival at nighttime. So his name's
Speaker 3: Graham Gilbert, And as Wikipedia very generously phrases it, it
Speaker 3: says in two thousand and two, Gilbert's nighttime show on
Speaker 3: two SM scored a rating of zero point one in Sydney,
Speaker 3: the lowest rating ever recorded for a commercial program in
Speaker 3: metro market in Australia. Two of them subsequently withdrew from
Speaker 3: the Sydney Radio ratings. So now they don't really have
Speaker 3: any way of knowing how many people do or don't listen.
Speaker 3: But he does get callers.
Speaker 2: He does get it, I'll tell you that.
Speaker 3: But unfortunately most of those callers calling Peter Graham Gilbert
Speaker 3: are prank callers.
Speaker 2: I don't know why.
Speaker 3: He's just become a target for prank callers. I've done
Speaker 3: it before. I'm not gonna lie. Oh yeah, yeah, it's
Speaker 3: just so easy. He's such an easy target. He's had
Speaker 3: a lot of them over the years. Most famously, I
Speaker 3: would say, would be the India prank calls.
Speaker 2: This is so so funny.
Speaker 3: I can't explain to you've heard it. Yeah, I've heard this, Jenna, No, okay.
Speaker 3: So I've got a quick example for you just to
Speaker 3: hear that. So basically, people call in and troll him
Speaker 3: by answering every question he asks in his quiz with
Speaker 3: the answer India.
Speaker 9: Question one, which Australian gymnast won Commonwealth Games gold in
Speaker 9: nineteen ninety and again in nineteen ninety four for his
Speaker 9: performance on the pommel horse India. I didn't think you
Speaker 9: were that done. I didn't think you were that done, Lincoln.
Speaker 9: But clearly I was wrong. Hello Thomas Graham.
Speaker 6: Yeah, mate, God he's bloody idiots calling up.
Speaker 13: Again then, but you'll have the answer.
Speaker 3: What do you think India?
Speaker 9: Yeah, Thomas, it's bedtime. Now, off you go, Okay, off
Speaker 9: you go. Thirteen twelve sixty nine. Hello there, Marcus, Yes,
Speaker 9: yes mate, Have you got an answer for us?
Speaker 5: India?
Speaker 13: Are you Marcus? Grow up? You women?
Speaker 8: Grow up?
Speaker 13: Good on you boys are going to be one of
Speaker 13: those nights, Robert good evening. Hello Graham, Hello, not too
Speaker 13: bad mate.
Speaker 6: Sorry after all that nonsense, could you repeat the question?
Speaker 9: Yeah, the question is, mate, which Australian gymnast Commonwealth Games
Speaker 9: gold in nineteen ninety and again in nineteen ninety four
Speaker 9: that his performance on the pommel horsephone.
Speaker 13: It wasn't even clever, mate, not even clever. Hello, ev
Speaker 13: I am, is who do you think it was?
Speaker 9: India even than fall for their silly games?
Speaker 13: Okay your match too nice to fall for their silly games.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I love how he says.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 3: Another one of those nights. This must happen a lot.
Speaker 2: So what the fuck is a pommel horse?
Speaker 8: I have no idea.
Speaker 2: I don't think anyone actually knew the answer. Poor Eve
Speaker 2: just like couldn't do it all I know.
Speaker 3: But who are these people? I've done so much research.
Speaker 3: I cannot find out how the India call started. And
Speaker 3: I don't know if they're still happening, but they've happened
Speaker 3: plenty of times. It's all over YouTube. But obviously he's
Speaker 3: aware of those prank callers. Often he just plays music
Speaker 3: because he gives up trying to do talk back. But
Speaker 3: some prank calls do slip through the cracks and he
Speaker 3: doesn't realize that they're a prank caller.
Speaker 13: I think I know what you mean.
Speaker 3: So this one that I'm about to play, someone called through,
Speaker 3: and rather than talking to him, they just recited the
Speaker 3: lyrics to the Family Guy theme song, I've given you
Speaker 3: the themes song over there, Madge players. It seems today
Speaker 3: that all you see is violence, you know what classic?
Speaker 20: But where its good old fashion?
Speaker 3: And so someone called through with those lyrics to see
Speaker 3: if he would notice. Here's how it went.
Speaker 13: Talk Tonight on thirteen, twelve sixty nine. Hello, Brian good
Speaker 13: even Graham.
Speaker 11: How are he is?
Speaker 3: Good?
Speaker 13: Thanks?
Speaker 5: Mate?
Speaker 11: It seems today that all you see is.
Speaker 9: Violence and movies and sex on TV.
Speaker 11: Right, Where are the good, old fashioned values on which
Speaker 11: we used to rely.
Speaker 13: Well that's a good point, isn't it.
Speaker 9: And it's interesting that they've done a couple of surveys
Speaker 9: of Blade and people are not going to movies.
Speaker 13: As much as they used to.
Speaker 9: And the reason they give is because of the unnecessary language,
Speaker 9: the unnecessary sexual scenes.
Speaker 13: And you're right, people are simply.
Speaker 9: Wanting to go back to movies where the whole family
Speaker 9: can go and it can be wholesome.
Speaker 17: We're lucky there's the family guy, you know.
Speaker 13: Okay, thank you very much. Okay, good on you, mate.
Speaker 9: I thought he had more to say thirteen twelve and
Speaker 9: sixty nine talk tonight, the.
Speaker 2: Best fuddy is and old fashioned values on which were
Speaker 2: used to like, couldn't agree more. The movies, the movies, Gias,
Speaker 2: it's awful.
Speaker 9: I know.
Speaker 3: And he took the bait. He had no idea. And
Speaker 3: so the challenge is because Graham Gilbert it is so
Speaker 3: hyper aware of prank callers, is to try and slip
Speaker 3: through the cracks. So what you just heard, Mitch. I
Speaker 3: bet you're wondering why I asked to push back the
Speaker 3: recording time this week a bit later at night.
Speaker 2: My actual night show starts very soon.
Speaker 3: Yes I know. And Jenny, you've it's Lumba for this
Speaker 3: pump class and he's on seven till midnight. So there's
Speaker 3: like a two hour window and we are currently in
Speaker 3: that window. So I was I was thinking, oh, do
Speaker 3: you want us to to call in? I want you
Speaker 3: to call and like that person did recite some lyrics
Speaker 3: that sound like a conversation and see if he notices.
Speaker 3: So thirteen twelve sixty nine is the number? Get it ready?
Speaker 2: Oh I don't think I can.
Speaker 3: You knew this was coming though, Like I you act
Speaker 3: so like, oh, you're gonna make me do this, But
Speaker 3: like every time we do talk back things, I always
Speaker 3: tend to make you do something. I'm like, what have
Speaker 3: you learned from?
Speaker 5: Sure?
Speaker 9: You do it?
Speaker 3: You do something off the back of it.
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, if you give me the lyrics, I'll do it.
Speaker 13: Well.
Speaker 3: A couple of the ones that I thought of were
Speaker 3: Partying in the USA by Miley Cyrus. Here's the lyrics.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you? Oh yeah, so just say hello? Ready,
Speaker 2: good a mate, Oh Graham, I hopped off the plane
Speaker 2: at Las with a dream and my cardigan. Welcome to
Speaker 2: the land of fame excess. Oh am, I gun fitting. No,
Speaker 2: it's the the rhyme. It's too Yeah, you can't do that.
Speaker 2: So then I jumped Graham. Here I am for the
Speaker 2: first time. No, you're right, I can't do that.
Speaker 3: The other one, another one I came up with, was
Speaker 3: all Star by smash Mouse.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, do you want to try?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 3: You know that song from Shrek Jenner? Yes, yeah, So
Speaker 3: I talked to night Graham. Gilbert's good evening Graham.
Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody once told me the world is going to
Speaker 2: roll me Andy Graham on the first tom and I
Speaker 2: ate the sharpest still in the shed. She was looking
Speaker 2: kind of damn right with her fingers.
Speaker 3: I reckon that one's okay. That one's better than party
Speaker 3: in the rhymes.
Speaker 2: The rhymes throw us off.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you reckon, Jenna, let's gover that one. Can
Speaker 3: you think of any others? No, that one's the best. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's better than anyway.
Speaker 2: No, I've got it. I've got one.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 2: I don't want to see what it is, but I've
Speaker 2: got one.
Speaker 3: What is it.
Speaker 11: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't want you to know. God is gonna put on.
Speaker 13: I mean three thousands stuff over a long period of time.
Speaker 13: Talk to like your name please? Vern, you're on here, Vern.
Speaker 13: What did you want to say? Mate?
Speaker 2: I just wanted to talk about ancestry dot Com and genealogy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: very quickly, Grahame, you wouldn't believe it, But I just
Speaker 2: took a DNA test and turns out I'm one hundred
Speaker 2: percent that bitch.
Speaker 13: Yeah that sounds right, Vern, So.
Speaker 17: Oh my god, he didn't take the bait at all.
Speaker 17: I don't know where it came.
Speaker 3: So that was what was Wait? Which song was that again?
Speaker 3: I can't remember what.
Speaker 2: Let me get it that Lizzo Truth.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. It's a Lizo lyric classic he caught
Speaker 3: up with last week.
Speaker 13: Dragon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my bff, miss Liza.
Speaker 3: You can only play five second. That's around five second.
Speaker 2: I just took a DNA test. Turns out I'm one
Speaker 2: hundred person.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I like the time with the ancestry
Speaker 3: dot Com. Yeah yeah, mate, I'm just like That's how
Speaker 3: I wanted his old fart callers would start. You wouldn't
Speaker 3: belave it.
Speaker 2: I found the internet, said ancestry Dot cup. Yeah, keep
Speaker 2: it quick. I didn't have time for burns.
Speaker 3: But do you have flashback on there?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, can you go and find two s M and
Speaker 3: then just like scroll to what just happened and send
Speaker 3: it to mine. I want to know what he said after,
Speaker 3: because I reckon he would have like slagged you off
Speaker 3: a bit more.
Speaker 2: He said, Oh my god, what did he say? Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I don't remember I just asking the wrong person again.
Speaker 3: Can we just talk about the fact that that was
Speaker 3: way too easy to get on air?
Speaker 2: He didn't even vet me. Like normally, when someone rings
Speaker 2: my show, okay, I go, Hi, it's Kiss Nights. What
Speaker 2: do you want to talk about? What's your name? Get
Speaker 2: the name and if they're ship I get rid of them,
Speaker 2: or if they want to talk about something stupid, I
Speaker 2: don't put them on. But I never go straight to
Speaker 2: air with someone.
Speaker 3: No, And like if you call a talkback station, which
Speaker 3: is different to kiss, they still go through the basic
Speaker 3: what's your name of? What do you want to talk?
Speaker 2: Speak a phone?
Speaker 3: Usually get your suburb Jane from Croydon.
Speaker 2: That was weird that he put it straight on air
Speaker 2: and says, what you know that I was going to
Speaker 2: says asking to be babe.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I can't believe that just happened. That
Speaker 3: that was We were in and out so quick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it's over before it even started. It's like
Speaker 2: getting a needle form. Have you got a Jenna?
Speaker 3: Yeah, just sent it.
Speaker 2: I can get it in the system right there. So
Speaker 2: this is after he hung up on me. We obviously
Speaker 2: didn't hear what he said on air, but this is
Speaker 2: him carrying on after the print corps.
Speaker 13: Here we go, Talk Tonight. Your name please, Vern, you're
Speaker 13: on air? Vern? What did you want to say? Mate?
Speaker 2: I just wanted to talk about ancestry dot com and genealogy.
Speaker 13: Yeah, very quickly.
Speaker 6: Great.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't believe it, but I just took an a
Speaker 2: test and turns out I'm one hundred percent that bitch.
Speaker 13: Yeah that sounds right, Vern. So you hung on for that,
Speaker 13: did you?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 13: I think you've described yourself one hundred percent.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 13: We've got your numbers, so we won't put your back
Speaker 13: on Talk Tonight on thirteen.
Speaker 3: And that wasn't too bad. Actually got better. It's actually
Speaker 3: better hearing it from the other a point of view.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very smug. I reckon.
Speaker 3: We can easily go back on that was that was
Speaker 3: not hard at all?
Speaker 21: Is it?
Speaker 1: Just when the podcast by a couple of mitches.
Speaker 2: Now this next one Mitch from episode forty, I don't
Speaker 2: even remember the Carter Edwards. Who's Carter Edwards?
Speaker 3: This was I completely forgot we did this. So what
Speaker 3: we did was we played a grab from Carter Edwards
Speaker 3: which was him just sitting He goes call the number now,
Speaker 3: you know, still listening for people to talk you for
Speaker 3: the talk back, and then he just sat there in
Speaker 3: silence waiting for someone to call. And then we did
Speaker 3: the same thing because we were on TikTok Live, Instagram
Speaker 3: Live and we got so many calls. It was amazing.
Speaker 3: I completely forgot this happened, but it was such a tree.
Speaker 3: Take a listen. I was listening to the other night
Speaker 3: Carter Edwards late at night on a weekend, and I
Speaker 3: I witnessed the moment that Carter Edwards just gave up. Really,
Speaker 3: he's been in this game for a long time, been
Speaker 3: hosting his talk back show for many years, and I
Speaker 3: just thought this particular he was like, I'm over it.
Speaker 3: I'm over it.
Speaker 2: Not his heart, I thought, but his heart gave out,
Speaker 2: eyes like that.
Speaker 3: You'll know what I mean. But first of all, let's
Speaker 3: just give you a little taste of what Carter Edwards
Speaker 3: Ratio show is.
Speaker 8: Like any topic any time called thirteen twelve sixty nine.
Speaker 10: Baker that it's the truth. Yes, okay, it's your station.
Speaker 10: I just pushed the buttons and give you the chance
Speaker 10: to have your freedom of speech. And there's all kinds
Speaker 10: of things that we'd like to give you a chance
Speaker 10: to talk about one thing I wanted to do, and
Speaker 10: I want to try and get your opinion on whatever
Speaker 10: it is that we throw in your direction, because everybody's
Speaker 10: got a a thought on whatever it is that we're
Speaker 10: talking about. Whoops, where have I got this happening? A second?
Speaker 13: Hang on? Okay, so he's not super.
Speaker 3: Coherent, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Everyone's got a thought but him.
Speaker 3: Yes, So you wouldn't really tune into that show. If
Speaker 3: you're wanting slick, polished radio FM rubbish, you have to
Speaker 3: make exactly.
Speaker 2: He left so many lulls. I could never do that.
Speaker 3: Thosells are bad. So when I listened the other night,
Speaker 3: I heard him do his thing. He's like, you know,
Speaker 3: this is the number call in talk about whatever you
Speaker 3: want to talk about and then he just sat and
Speaker 3: waited for someone to call on air. He didn't fill
Speaker 3: the silence. He literally just sat in silence waiting for
Speaker 3: the phone to ring.
Speaker 2: But was it a joke?
Speaker 13: Was he doing it?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 3: No, no, he just played the audio. You'll know what
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 13: Thank you for your thoughts, Maureen, Okay, bye, mate, than dyl.
Speaker 10: And Boboy okay, agree or disagree?
Speaker 13: What are your thoughts on that one? Folks?
Speaker 10: Please give us an idea?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 10: Thirteen twelve sixty nine. I've got the one line waiting
Speaker 10: for somebody.
Speaker 3: You'll wait, No, oh my god? Wait is this real?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I'm not going to make you sit through all the
Speaker 3: silence it went for over three minutes.
Speaker 2: Was in a bad mood?
Speaker 3: I don't know, But can I tell you there is
Speaker 3: actually nothing he could have said in that moment that
Speaker 3: would have been more engaging to me than that silence.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't get out of the car. I'm sitting there
Speaker 3: in the car park for over three minutes, being like,
Speaker 3: what's going to happen next? It was actually so gripping.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but also my brain goes straight to death. I'm like,
Speaker 2: has he died? If something has happened in the studio.
Speaker 2: There's a terrorist isis of broken in? That's just Carter Yeah,
Speaker 2: off the week. This is why we love his program.
Speaker 3: He's not ed off again. But anyway, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to make you sit through the entire three minute silence.
Speaker 3: But this is what happened when he came back on
Speaker 3: air and finally someone called through.
Speaker 2: Okay, what good evening?
Speaker 3: Hello, Yeah, can you hear me?
Speaker 13: I can hear you, yes, sir, thank you. Yeah, I
Speaker 13: was listening to your conversation earlier.
Speaker 3: It went on from there.
Speaker 2: It was almost like he was asleep with a newspaper,
Speaker 2: right Hello, Yes, Hi, I've been waiting.
Speaker 3: Can I just ask Mitchell, as someone who works on
Speaker 3: air in FM radio, how much trouble would you get in.
Speaker 2: If you did that?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: If I say my name, I'm Mitch till midnight, I
Speaker 2: can't even leave a pause between the till and midnight.
Speaker 2: I said it was one word, Mitch till midnight. I
Speaker 2: can't even know Mitch till at midnight.
Speaker 3: A very very fast paced and nothing like that talk
Speaker 3: back ship.
Speaker 2: Also my call because I take so many calls every night,
Speaker 2: I can if they're bad, I chop them they're done
Speaker 2: really oh of course, but it's also funny that way.
Speaker 2: But this way, like this is next level.
Speaker 3: Well, as we've learned, they kind of just let anyone
Speaker 3: on air on talkback. They don't really bet them. It's
Speaker 3: it's like whatever someone's called, they'll take back.
Speaker 2: That lady that he let go didn't even know his
Speaker 2: name by mate.
Speaker 3: But anyway, I did feel bad for Carter and the
Speaker 3: fact that he was just left hanging, yeah, for three minutes,
Speaker 3: waiting for someone to call. And so right now, as
Speaker 3: we're recording we are on Facebook Live, yeah, TikTok Live,
Speaker 3: and Instagram Live. I'm thinking that our listeners, because they're
Speaker 3: fucking legends, they wouldn't leave us hanging like that.
Speaker 2: Your body hope not, absolutely not.
Speaker 3: And so we've never done this before, but we're going
Speaker 3: to give out the number of the studio that we're
Speaker 3: recorded here it is, and then Jenna, I want you
Speaker 3: to get a stop watch out yep, and see how
Speaker 3: long it takes someone to call, because I don't think
Speaker 3: our listeners would do that to us, leave us hanging
Speaker 3: for three over three minutes.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think they would, although our listeners is
Speaker 2: that way Incline that they might just do it because
Speaker 2: they like a mile.
Speaker 3: Anyone right now is considering doing this is control us.
Speaker 3: I will be furious because like that's going to be
Speaker 3: so tense.
Speaker 2: They probably would knowing them.
Speaker 3: We're also on Facebook Live. There's like a I tested
Speaker 3: it earlier. There's a seven second delay, so we're guaranteed
Speaker 3: at least some silence. Okay, So we're just going to
Speaker 3: sit here and wait and see how long it takes
Speaker 3: one of our listeners to call. So Mitch without further
Speaker 3: to give out the number.
Speaker 2: All right, I'll do it. I'll it'll be my the
Speaker 2: very best carter I can be. Give us a call
Speaker 2: wherever you are. Thirteen one oh six five thirteen one

Speaker 3: Okay, Doug? And finally, this is from episode one hundred
Speaker 3: and four. We're going back to Graham Gilbert because, like
Speaker 3: I keep saying, it's very, very prone to prank calls,
Speaker 3: and we actually managed to get through and do one ourselves,
Speaker 3: which was a bit of fun.
Speaker 2: You know, if I was Graham Gilbert, I'd lean into
Speaker 2: the fact. I mean, people work for years without building
Speaker 2: a brand. He's got a brand. Yes, it is being
Speaker 2: the butt of the joke and being the idiot, but
Speaker 2: take it Graham take the rank calls while people still
Speaker 2: think you're relevant, you know, because once that goes, you're done.
Speaker 3: Like, take inspiration from the John Laws Pike's nursery thing.
Speaker 3: Just roll with it. It's gold. Don't get all uppity
Speaker 3: and cranky. He got very pissed off when this caller
Speaker 3: came through and let some dirty words slip on air. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so talk back teams is where we bring you some
Speaker 3: of the cook shit that we hear on talkback radio.
Speaker 3: Because it's it's live, it's dangerous. You get see these
Speaker 3: quirky old callers calling through to those places. Then do
Speaker 3: you remember back in episode fifteen said we're going back
Speaker 3: a while. We played you the time that a bunch
Speaker 3: of people banded together to sabotage Graham Gilbert's nightly quiz.
Speaker 3: Oh we're talking.
Speaker 2: India, yep, India.
Speaker 3: Every question he asked, every single question he asked, they
Speaker 3: would answer with India just to piss him off.
Speaker 9: Which Australian gymnast one Commonwealth Games gold in nineteen ninety
Speaker 9: for his performance on the pommel horse India.
Speaker 13: Are you Marcus grow up whatever? Yeah, grow up? Good
Speaker 13: on you boys are going to be one of those nights,
Speaker 13: Robert Good evening, Hello Graham, how are you not too bad?
Speaker 13: You'll have a sensible answer, aren't.
Speaker 6: You step on a phone?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 13: And please, no more please?
Speaker 3: That was in our show opener for a while, and
Speaker 3: that was iconic to I have you ever heard a
Speaker 3: more defeated man?
Speaker 13: How please?
Speaker 9: I know?
Speaker 2: No, God, you never think about talk back that. I
Speaker 2: don't think we've ever addressed. Like these guys. They have
Speaker 2: to time out to the hour for the half hour
Speaker 2: for the news, so they sometimes have to feel minutes
Speaker 2: of audio of dead air just to make it out
Speaker 2: to the news break. So you just the ship you
Speaker 2: have to come up with. It's a tough job.
Speaker 3: But although it's not that hard to get through to
Speaker 3: Graham show. So that's why so many prank callers slip
Speaker 3: through the crack. He does like we tried it once, room.
Speaker 3: He didn't even vet us. He just put us on
Speaker 3: air straight to it, didn't even ask our name off air. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So he's quite used to prank calls at this point,
Speaker 3: and he's got quite a short fuse when it comes
Speaker 3: to being on the receiving end. So he was asking
Speaker 3: his listeners about salt water in the ocean, and what
Speaker 3: makes it so salty? And this old bird called through
Speaker 3: with a dirty joke. I suspect it's not actually an
Speaker 3: old lady. You can tell by the voice.
Speaker 2: Oh you think it's a dot Wigan scenario.
Speaker 3: It is very dot Wiggans. You can just tell by
Speaker 3: the voice that it's not a real person.
Speaker 2: Okay, here it is.
Speaker 13: And the salt in the sea eleanor is it.
Speaker 1: The saltiness of the ocean?
Speaker 13: Yes, my grandson told me.
Speaker 11: Can get up on the internet, all right, because of
Speaker 11: all the streamen?
Speaker 13: Is that your answer?
Speaker 22: All the streamen in the ocean makes them salty?
Speaker 13: Thirteen twelve sixty nine.
Speaker 22: We will totally ignore that answer, okay, because I just
Speaker 22: wish these people wouldn't phone up and put on body voices. Alrighty,
Speaker 22: they think they're going to get away with it, but please,
Speaker 22: do we need to say it one more time?
Speaker 13: We do take all of your numbers. And is an offense? Okay?
Speaker 13: Is an offense to Communications Act?
Speaker 3: Shut up, horse, I just don't think that's true, Jana.
Speaker 3: Can you look up the Communications Act? It's even an
Speaker 3: offense to prank call someone? Because I really don't think
Speaker 3: it is. We do it all the time.
Speaker 2: I have to do radio codes once a year, and no,
Speaker 2: you can call us having no legal binding, right, I
Speaker 2: can do whatever they want.
Speaker 3: It's just so easy and so fun to get through.
Speaker 3: And I just love his overreaction, like, oh please, we'll
Speaker 3: just totally ignore that. I have another example.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Graham, right.
Speaker 3: Now, it's not Graham. This is a show in Melbourne
Speaker 3: on three a W. And they were on the receiving
Speaker 3: end of a filthy prank call and their reaction, Oh
Speaker 3: my god, they overreacted so much. It's like, oh, laugh
Speaker 3: a little darling.
Speaker 2: Oh they were angry.
Speaker 3: Oh they were furious.
Speaker 2: Okay, So this is a three a W in Melbourne.
Speaker 8: Night Lion with Bruce Mansfield and Philip Brady on twelve
Speaker 8: seventy eight, three a W Newport.
Speaker 2: Toby is at Newport.
Speaker 13: Hello Toby, Hi Bruce, Phil Yes, Toby, how are you cool? Good?
Speaker 8: Thanks?
Speaker 13: I have a joke. Yes, what's the funniest smelling thing
Speaker 13: in the whole wild world?
Speaker 20: The funniest smelling thing in the whole wide world.
Speaker 16: Perhaps your nose horns an anchovy cunt?
Speaker 20: What a pity, Toby, Never call us again. Play never
Speaker 20: in your life even think about it.
Speaker 18: And think we've dumped your Toby, but there are people
Speaker 18: like Carmen and Queenie online and could hear that in
Speaker 18: the ear.
Speaker 13: And we heard it, and Simon heard it, So you're
Speaker 13: ruined it for all of us. Toby.
Speaker 20: If you've ever thinking of tuning in again, just don't
Speaker 20: get a life and Toby, grow up.
Speaker 3: Grow up. Carmen and Queenie, I found an answer to
Speaker 3: the communications.
Speaker 12: So threatening to kill or cause serious harm to someone
Speaker 12: is considered a criminal offense.
Speaker 2: Of course, Oh my god, Jenna, do you think we
Speaker 2: didn't know that.
Speaker 3: Even that's a brand new information.
Speaker 2: Drowning a human will send you to prison. Oh good
Speaker 2: to know.
Speaker 3: No behead your mother in law, or even threatening to
Speaker 3: do so.
Speaker 12: Even if the prankster doesn't threaten their victim, repeated calls
Speaker 12: can amount to harassment, stalking, or bullying. So that person
Speaker 12: wasn't doing committing an offense.
Speaker 2: God, that call was who they were so upset?
Speaker 3: Do you love how as soon as he said an
Speaker 3: anchover's c word, you just heard the hosts in the
Speaker 3: background be like, yeah, like turning all the buttons of.
Speaker 2: God, that's so funny, good joke. So I'd have heard
Speaker 2: that one before that's fresh good.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I was going to suggest that we get
Speaker 3: dot Wiggins. You're eighty year old, ninety year old, I
Speaker 3: can't remember how old she is, your alter ego, the
Speaker 3: old lady that comes out to play every now and then,
Speaker 3: Because we haven't heard from dotting a bit, no I
Speaker 3: miss her. I was going to suggest that we call
Speaker 3: a station and try and get through. But if it's
Speaker 3: repeated prank call, that's like maybe that is we'd have
Speaker 3: to call a different show for example. Actually, no, grand
Speaker 3: it's not even on at this time of day, so
Speaker 3: it's probably fine.
Speaker 2: We could call an FM station.
Speaker 3: Oh that would be way harder if it's an FM
Speaker 3: music station.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 3: True, but you have to call and basically use a
Speaker 3: dirty word and see if they even notice. Oh, like slip,
Speaker 3: because you know how she said the streamana in the
Speaker 3: ocean that was like a double what's the word? Yeah,
Speaker 3: because she was referring to men of the sea, men
Speaker 3: at sea, which is the men, but she tied it
Speaker 3: in with the saltingness, so it's actually dirty. So we
Speaker 3: need like a hidden meaning.
Speaker 2: What if I talk about the fact that my pussy
Speaker 2: won't stop itching and I think she might have mine
Speaker 2: that's not even life. Yeah, smaller than lies, like.
Speaker 3: Words that sound dirty.
Speaker 2: Beaver, be fever, Oh, beaver's good.
Speaker 3: I don't think we even have beavers in Australia though,
Speaker 3: so that's too obvious.
Speaker 2: No, we don't. Maybe I can just say that I've
Speaker 2: got suddenly I've been I'm fascinated with beavers. And it's
Speaker 2: very late in life because I haven't normally been interested
Speaker 2: in beavers. But I watched something on Telly.
Speaker 3: What about the word rump?
Speaker 2: Now I want more vogele like it needs to be
Speaker 2: like I could say, whole, like a butthole, like Fanny
Speaker 2: Fanny flange. What's flange?
Speaker 7: Ma?
Speaker 2: Oh my god?
Speaker 3: Flaps?
Speaker 2: Oh flaps is good?
Speaker 3: Hi, I'm calling them having issue with my flat. What
Speaker 3: could you actually be talking about? Obviously not your badge.
Speaker 2: When i'd flaps on, I've got a four wheel drive.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, flaps are just no matter how much I
Speaker 3: clean them, they have it in grime and grunt.
Speaker 2: And it stinks. Let's go with flaps. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: I like flaps.
Speaker 3: I've heard otherwise about you. What about like we're using flaps,
Speaker 3: but you're actually talking about flapper jacks like the pancakes,
Speaker 3: you're like, when I come home, my my husband loves
Speaker 3: to nore on flaps. But I'm just having some trouble.
Speaker 3: The flaps are too dry.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, flaper jacks. Is that too much of a life. Also,
Speaker 2: don't think it's flapperjacks. I think you're mispronouncing that. I
Speaker 2: think it's flapjacks. Oh whatever, you upset the Canadian. Yeah,
Speaker 2: flap jacks.
Speaker 3: Like you, you have this whole narrative that you like
Speaker 3: to cook your husband pancakes when it comes home from
Speaker 3: work every day, but you're having problems with the flaps.
Speaker 1: The flaps.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I like that that work, and there's nothing
Speaker 3: more he enjoys more after a hard day at work
Speaker 3: than my flaps, some moist flaps.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what I just start with them having some
Speaker 2: meritable problems and then because I don't want to lead
Speaker 2: with the flaps, because that'll that'll be a red flap,
Speaker 2: maybe red fla.
Speaker 3: Maybe when you speak to the producer or whatever, you
Speaker 3: say you've got a cooking question. Yeah, on who's even
Speaker 3: on it?
Speaker 2: I'm looking now who's on air?
Speaker 3: Oh okay, so same station is Graham and John Laws,
Speaker 3: Brent Bultitude. Oh yeah, I don't think he'd be hard
Speaker 3: to get through too.

Speaker 2: I really didn't weave it meant to be. I cook
Speaker 2: him a beautiful stack of flaps.
Speaker 3: Like you know, it could be something else.
Speaker 2: When he got to black my dry flaps, I got
Speaker 2: distracted by the eye, you know what. I felt bad

Speaker 2: then he I am being a bastard to him and
Speaker 2: I called him Trent.
Speaker 8: Isn't just me?
Speaker 1: You should follow these idiots online. Search a couple of mitches.
Speaker 3: There we go the best bits of talkback things. And
Speaker 3: we were saying a couple of weeks ago, Mitch that
Speaker 3: when we come back to season five, we've already got
Speaker 3: stuff ready to go. There's been some cook talkback shit
Speaker 3: happening over the summer.
Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, And there was something that happened on
Speaker 2: FM Radio. I mentioned it in the Last Best Bits
Speaker 2: that we've been plagiarized, and I've got it and we
Speaker 2: will will unpack it. You haven't heard it yet, Mitch.
Speaker 3: But no, you didn't mention it was the FM radio.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that counts as that talk back.
Speaker 2: I'll pitch it to you and it could be a
Speaker 2: first you know, season five for God. So if they
Speaker 2: can change things up, we can shake things out. But oh,
Speaker 2: that's my doorbell. Oh oh fuck, it's the open house.
Speaker 2: I have an open house in a minute now, an
Speaker 2: open house, and I think that's a real estate agent.

Speaker 2: can you just sit here and smile and I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna put the webcam on full screen and then if
Speaker 2: people see you, they might bid more. It might make
Speaker 2: us some more cash. Do you mind take your top
Speaker 2: off as well?
