Speaker 1: Come on there.
Speaker 2: Everyone, h girls, Welcome to the show, everybody.
Speaker 3: I have to share what just happened off the air
Speaker 3: because we were all a bit peckish today, so we
Speaker 3: ordered some food.
Speaker 2: Peckish is an understatement. We're fan starving.
Speaker 1: I haven't had lunch, so yeah, we went on.
Speaker 3: We ordered food to be delivered to the studio, right,
Speaker 3: and I just said, because it comes delivered to the
Speaker 3: radio station. So I write what the show is, I
Speaker 3: say it's for the pickup, just so when they get
Speaker 3: to reception, the team the reception bring it up to us.
Speaker 2: I was always going to be confusing.
Speaker 4: Some poor fourteen year old got that order at the
Speaker 4: takeaway joint and was like, oh, this is for pickup.
Speaker 2: So they just didn't delivererate.
Speaker 1: So we have been sitting here waiting.
Speaker 3: We thought we'd get an hour before the show in
Speaker 3: the prep, the prep meeting for the show. It's never arrived.
Speaker 3: So we called the restaurant and they go sitting here
Speaker 3: waiting for pickup.
Speaker 2: For the pickup. We like the pick It makes it
Speaker 2: really sad that they hadn't heard of us.
Speaker 1: It's probably for the role. Show's name was eat me
Speaker 1: what well? They were eating.
Speaker 5: It at the same time we're starving.
Speaker 1: Okay. Coming up on.
Speaker 4: Today's show, we have our it's our favorite. Every Thursday
Speaker 4: we do it. It's Ask Gun Cut. But we have
Speaker 4: a woman right now who is on the phones and
Speaker 4: she is dealing with the fact that her partner is
Speaker 4: obsessed with fantasy football.
Speaker 2: It's ruining their relationship. I've been there. You did your
Speaker 2: ex love fantasy football. I have had an ex. Yep, fantasy.
Speaker 1: Was going to go there.
Speaker 2: That's why I feel a bit.
Speaker 1: You don't want to out the we had once a
Speaker 1: famous one.
Speaker 2: If you google you pretty quick. I have a lot
Speaker 2: of people in my life that like fantasy football.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, well we'll discuss it. Coming up next year
Speaker 1: at pick up around this Strailia.
Speaker 2: Ask ourcat.
Speaker 4: We love Ask and Cut Here it's where you guys
Speaker 4: call up. You have your big, deep, dark, biggest problems
Speaker 4: and we do our best to answer them, even though
Speaker 4: we're completely unqualified. And today we have Nat on the
Speaker 4: phone who is dealing with her partner who is obsessed
Speaker 4: with fantasy football.
Speaker 6: Hi, guys, a bit of a pickle. Fantasy football is
Speaker 6: taking over my life and it's not my life for
Speaker 6: it to be taken over.
Speaker 2: So how obsessed is he? What's like, what's happening.
Speaker 6: He's ridiculous. You'd think that he's dating fantasy football team
Speaker 6: because we've been together for six years and I'm expecting
Speaker 6: a ring sometimes soon. But I think that's being put
Speaker 6: on the backburn because all he talks about, all he does,
Speaker 6: is just fantasy football team.
Speaker 7: So to be clear here, for those playing all at home,
Speaker 7: fantasy football is like a fake football team that has
Speaker 7: real players in real life. So you've got to watch
Speaker 7: You've got to watch the real players with what they're doing,
Speaker 7: but then you've got to take that information back to
Speaker 7: you a fake.
Speaker 2: Team, and then usually you're also in a WhatsApp group
Speaker 2: with like fifty other people. Is that correct?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it just sounds so silly when you say that's
Speaker 6: what's taking me no idea.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I had no idea what this was, and the
Speaker 4: team were trying to explain it to me earlier today,
Speaker 4: And if you're on the outside of fantasy football and
Speaker 4: you're just hearing it for the first time, it sounds
Speaker 4: crazy that they would become addicted to this.
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm a man, I have no idea what's going on.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of this in my life.
Speaker 3: Well to paint the picture that, so you'll be cooking dinner,
Speaker 3: you'll go, baby, I've got lingerie on, and he'd just
Speaker 3: want to look his head stuck in the phone.
Speaker 6: Yeah, pretty much. So basically he plays cricket over summer
Speaker 6: so I don't get seen them, and then we have
Speaker 6: this little window and I think, brilliant, we're gonna catch
Speaker 6: up again. And then no Fantasy football starts up and
Speaker 6: it takes every more than the cricket does, so he's
Speaker 6: he does a draft night, then the boys come over
Speaker 6: and then, as you mentioned the WhatsApp messages, they just
Speaker 6: go back and forth and it's like I don't exist anymore.
Speaker 2: So what happens? Have you brought this up with him?
Speaker 2: Have you tried to have a conversation? What does he say?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 9: And he says we all need hobbies.
Speaker 1: I can't agree with you. I reckon let him have it.
Speaker 7: You can't say that if it's actually consuming the entire
Speaker 7: life and affecting the relationship.
Speaker 2: Hobby is not a five six, seven day a week thing.
Speaker 2: That's not ay.
Speaker 1: Do you have a book club?
Speaker 7: Net?
Speaker 1: Do you watch Real Housewives?
Speaker 6: Like?
Speaker 1: Are you not giving him attention when you're doing things
Speaker 1: you enjoy.
Speaker 6: No, I like a lot of attentions. Anytime I can
Speaker 6: get a bit of it, I jump at it.
Speaker 2: What's going to happen in your relationship?
Speaker 4: Like if he continues down this path prioritizing cricket, fantasy football,
Speaker 4: where do you see things heading?
Speaker 9: To be honest, But at the end of each season,
Speaker 9: because he tells me he's going to pull back every
Speaker 9: yearly drift and drift, and then we regain a little
Speaker 9: bit over summer and then again it so I'm just
Speaker 9: worried that we will drift too far that we be
Speaker 9: able to come apart.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I reckon that. Would you be down to call
Speaker 3: him on the show, Nat, because between Britt Laura and
Speaker 3: I I think we could we could use, you know,
Speaker 3: some tact and some skill to get him to come
Speaker 3: around to put down there.
Speaker 2: I think, woman to woman, I think I could have
Speaker 2: a word to him.
Speaker 1: Would you call it all the would you be down?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, pe preasure is always great and I need to.
Speaker 2: Well you're gonna you're gonna start the conversation. We'll just
Speaker 2: come in when when you need us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a phone tap situation Producer Grace, can
Speaker 3: you you can grab NAT's partner's number and we'll go
Speaker 3: to a break and we'll come back and we'll do
Speaker 3: the confrontation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm on it.
Speaker 2: The conversation.
Speaker 1: Confrontation.
Speaker 2: It's a confrontation. Conversation. Oh all right, we don't want
Speaker 2: to confront.
Speaker 1: Next, the intervention fantasy football.
Speaker 3: All right, Nat, Sorry, we're not making fun of your situations.
Speaker 1: We'll give you a help. We'll do it next.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, back after this on the pickup. If
Speaker 3: you're just tuning in, we had asked gun cut just before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we're hearing from Nat who's having some problems
Speaker 4: in a relationship at the moment with her husband Rob
Speaker 4: because he's obsessed with fantasy football, and she feels like
Speaker 4: she goes from cricket season straight into fantasy football season,
Speaker 4: and she doesn't feel like she has any connection with
Speaker 4: her husband because she's deprioritized and all that.
Speaker 1: They're not married, they're just boyfriend girlfriends. So there we go.
Speaker 2: That's even worse. She's waiting for the ring. She said that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she thinks she's not gonna come now.
Speaker 1: She wants an intervention. I know you didn't call it
Speaker 1: an intervention. Did you, Matt, No, we.
Speaker 2: Said it a conversation, Matt, Yeah, a conversation.
Speaker 1: Okay. So we have your beautiful boyfriend Rob joining us.
Speaker 1: He's on the line. Hello, Robbie, Welcome to the pickup mate.
Speaker 8: Hi, great to be here, guys.
Speaker 2: Hi Rob, I'm sure you're thrilled.
Speaker 5: Rob.
Speaker 2: Do you know why you're here in the court of
Speaker 2: the pickup today?
Speaker 8: I think Simpeple wanted some advice on fantasy footy if
Speaker 8: I got.
Speaker 4: A crap okay, So I think we need to give
Speaker 4: we need to give Rob a second Okay, Rob, how
Speaker 4: important to you is fantasy football? And in terms of
Speaker 4: how you feel about it? Do you think that it
Speaker 4: prioritizes and takes up a lot of space and time
Speaker 4: and mental energy and just pretty much everything else.
Speaker 8: Look, it takes up a lot of mental energy. But
Speaker 8: I've got two great loves in my life. One is
Speaker 8: mad at cost and the other fantasy footies. So it's
Speaker 8: all about finding the balance. And you know, I think
Speaker 8: we're pretty happy with where relationships at at the moment
Speaker 8: that NAT is, how.
Speaker 2: Do you do you do you feel like you're pretty
Speaker 2: happy with where the relationships out?
Speaker 6: I think Rob, you know that I'm not. We speak
Speaker 6: about this nearly every night. You do not show me
Speaker 6: enough attention when the fantasy football league starts up. You
Speaker 6: cancel on so many social events, especially on weekends, and
Speaker 6: you say that you put me first, And I definitely
Speaker 6: think fantasy football is coming first. It's your first love,
Speaker 6: not me.
Speaker 7: Rob.
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, yeah, no, no, I say where you're coming from.
Speaker 8: But I mean, you know, we got knocked out at
Speaker 8: the cricket finals, so we had sort of a two
Speaker 8: week break there where I wasn't doing anything.
Speaker 4: Or a two week break, Rob, Rob, that sounds like
Speaker 4: a holiday, not a relationship.
Speaker 7: Probably, if Nat has just said to you that she
Speaker 7: feels like she doesn't get the love and affection and
Speaker 7: care and attention that she needs from you everything, what yeah,
Speaker 7: what are you going to do about that?
Speaker 2: How does that make you feel?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 8: I'll sly after Thursday night, Claion Oliver is my captain, sod,
Speaker 8: so how many disposals he gets in?
Speaker 2: Probably you're about to get a divorce before you're married.
Speaker 1: Rob, you're being a little a little naughty boy.
Speaker 4: Okay, it's upsetting that, But also you guys have been
Speaker 4: talking about getting engaged.
Speaker 2: Has this do you has it gone down the priority
Speaker 2: list for you?
Speaker 4: Because NAT's saying that she feels like, you know, it's
Speaker 4: taking second fiddle now to fantasy football.
Speaker 8: There is a big fall of prize money on at
Speaker 8: the end of this year, so I think the best
Speaker 8: way for me to save up for that ring is
Speaker 8: to win this fantasy footy league. Let me put my
Speaker 8: head down and focus on this that and we'll worry
Speaker 8: about that.
Speaker 7: You might not have anyone left to propose to Rob
Speaker 7: by the time it's called gambling. I feel like you
Speaker 7: have a bit of an addiction there, and I think
Speaker 7: you need to listen to your partner.
Speaker 8: Look, this is a year though, Like I don't want
Speaker 8: to quit just before I've got the big win. For
Speaker 8: three years, it's all going to come together. I can
Speaker 8: feel it.
Speaker 3: Rob.
Speaker 2: It sounds like you've got a bit of an addiction.
Speaker 4: Really like that sounds like this goes beyond being a
Speaker 4: normal a normal obsession with fantasy football. And I know
Speaker 4: people can get obsessed with that. I don't you know,
Speaker 4: I don't discredit that, but this doesn't sound normal. And
Speaker 4: the fact that you're not prioritizing your relationship, I mean,
Speaker 4: how I maybe one left mat how does it make
Speaker 4: you feel sitting there listening to all this.
Speaker 6: I mean, I've heard it all before. To be honest,
Speaker 6: I mean I still, I still obviously I love you, Rob,
Speaker 6: But yeah, it's really I'm getting to the end, to
Speaker 6: be honest. And especially, I mean, my sister's wedding is
Speaker 6: coming up, and I feel like there's an asterisk on
Speaker 6: that if he's going to be attending, because there is.
Speaker 8: We always have one one day night a week where
Speaker 8: we do the trading, so we all get together, all
Speaker 8: the boys and and just so I always said, like
Speaker 8: as a maybe.
Speaker 2: For that wedding, Rob, No, no, sorry, you're about to
Speaker 2: lose the love of your life. That is, I'm calling
Speaker 2: bullshit on that.
Speaker 7: You cannot not go to your sister in law's wedding
Speaker 7: because of fantasy football meet up with the boys.
Speaker 2: You are literally going to lose nap.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well this is saying a bit of a serious turn.
Speaker 8: I thought, you know, we had a good thing going
Speaker 8: at but yeah, like I think maybe if we just
Speaker 8: split at like fifty to fifty you know, each week,
Speaker 8: maybe we have a few more nights out, we can
Speaker 8: get back on track.
Speaker 6: I think we'll be having some more conversations to be.
Speaker 2: Honest, guys, so unnecessary. Rob's not so great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, what's the compromise, Mat, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: you do something.
Speaker 6: Yeah. I don't think there's much for me to do.
Speaker 6: I think it's for me to speak to him, but
Speaker 6: I mean, I'm open to suggestions for him to come
Speaker 6: to the party, but he needs to come.
Speaker 2: To a first Yeah, guys, keep us. We want to
Speaker 2: know how this all pans out. But at the moment, Rob,
Speaker 2: it's not sounding good.
Speaker 1: Matt and Rob, good luck guy. One last thing, Rob.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was just going to say, what do you
Speaker 8: think of Zach Williams this year joke? And he's going
Speaker 8: to come back and have a good year.
Speaker 1: Men, Matt, we will find you. We'll play matchmaker.
Speaker 3: If you leave, Rob, I might need you to come
Speaker 3: to the wedding with me. Yeah, no worries a dance
Speaker 3: for Well, that was an interesting couple. I feel we
Speaker 3: should call the Channel nine production crew. We got two
Speaker 3: new members for Mats next season.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's terrible.
Speaker 1: That's so bad, all right? Next on the show, speaking
Speaker 1: of so bad, I don't know if you heard, Mitch.
Speaker 2: I felt so bad for you.
Speaker 7: I heard on Willem Woody when I was driving home
Speaker 7: that they pranked you real good.
Speaker 1: I'm actually not happy about this.
Speaker 2: I know it was pretty humiliating. It was funny, butting.
Speaker 4: This is the thing about radio that people like it
Speaker 4: still gets you when you get pranked on radio. Everyone's
Speaker 4: like ah, but really the person getting pranked it sucks for.
Speaker 1: I thought I was safe being in radio.
Speaker 3: I can't get play if if you didn't hear what
Speaker 3: Will and Woody did to me on their show yesterday,
Speaker 3: we'll play it for you next.
Speaker 1: This might be my last show. I'm in a terrible movie.
Speaker 7: Mis Mitch.
Speaker 2: We came in today and I knew the reason.
Speaker 7: But Mitch was very upset about something that went down
Speaker 7: and I heard it on Willem Woody yesterday.
Speaker 2: I heard the prank that the boys pulled on you.
Speaker 2: Are you good?
Speaker 3: I'm okay now, but in the moment, I was really
Speaker 3: I was really gutted. It was really upsetting that the
Speaker 3: boys Will and Wody, who were on after us yesterday,
Speaker 3: pranked me.
Speaker 2: We were all in the car and we all heard it.
Speaker 4: But this, I mean, you got told by Will and
Speaker 4: Woody that you were interviewing Fred again, which was a bloody,
Speaker 4: huge interview and you were excited about it and it
Speaker 4: turned out to not be.
Speaker 7: I got a message from Mitch that was like, I
Speaker 7: don't say that. Literally got a message He's like, YO,
Speaker 7: get this. Guess who I'm interviewing today.
Speaker 2: So awful. He's like a thread again. Okay, kicking career goals.
Speaker 1: This is my own show.
Speaker 3: I was embarrassed on will you I don't want to
Speaker 3: be embarrassed on my own show. Can I tell you
Speaker 3: the context? Fred again massive DJ like he is one
Speaker 3: of the biggest in the world. He sells out shows
Speaker 3: in ten seconds. People want to go to his concerts.
Speaker 3: He also has never done an interview. He doesn't do press.
Speaker 3: So our producer here on the show, producer Grace calls
Speaker 3: me and goes Mitch because I interview celebs. They go
Speaker 3: Willem Woody had this interview with Fred Again and they've
Speaker 3: pulled out right Grace and.
Speaker 2: They were like, we can't do it. We need you
Speaker 2: to help us out.
Speaker 3: So I went, great, this is awesome. I'd love to
Speaker 3: interview Fred Agham. We can put on the pick up,
Speaker 3: we can do the interview. It's amazing. It's all above ball.
Speaker 3: We get emails from the record label. Will and Wood's producer,
Speaker 3: like it's all above bord.
Speaker 2: He produced Grays got pranked as well.
Speaker 10: Yeah, that's really sad. Net a prep for it, like,
Speaker 10: we'll help you out, We'll send you a prep sheet.
Speaker 10: And I looked at it and I went, he's a
Speaker 10: pretty big deal. I should put some work into this.
Speaker 3: Because they rushed it because it was fake. Grace looked
Speaker 3: at and Mitch won't be happy with this. I had
Speaker 3: to re edit it all, so you has.
Speaker 4: A lot of work.
Speaker 1: Do you know?
Speaker 4: This is mean on another level? Because Grace is really busy.
Speaker 4: I don't want her wasting her time on these pranks.
Speaker 4: I feel mad about that, but you are a little
Speaker 4: bit less mad about me.
Speaker 1: You're you guys are like the mums of the show.
Speaker 1: Can you come in and defend me?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 2: How dare you? Can you play the prank I.
Speaker 1: Don't want to have. I'm going to lay and I'm
Speaker 1: going to play it because it makes me physically sick.
Speaker 3: No, this is me what happened? I Will and Woody,
Speaker 3: you press play? This is me thinking I'm interviewing Fred again.
Speaker 3: Would we make Mitch Tury who does the Night Show,
Speaker 3: believe that Tom Cashman is Fred again.
Speaker 1: He's coming in now. Hello, buddy, how are you you are?
Speaker 1: Tell you what? You're funny, You're handsome, you're talented, I
Speaker 1: mean you are? Are you single? I mean I'm sure
Speaker 1: people would want to know.
Speaker 2: Oh I'm single for now.
Speaker 1: But you know who knows what goes on on the tour?
Speaker 7: You know?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly right. Singletch, don't make this about me. God,
Speaker 1: you're good.
Speaker 3: The psychology you freda sorry, Matte just done a lot
Speaker 3: of a couple of years ago, I didn't know who
Speaker 3: Fred again was?
Speaker 2: Can I say a few years ago I didn't know
Speaker 2: who you were either?
Speaker 1: So it's even this is a real accent.
Speaker 7: This.
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm on a sketch show. This is
Speaker 3: a brilliant accent. Where were you born?
Speaker 8: Well, I've been in Australia for about five days, so
Speaker 8: I'm putting one over on your humige.
Speaker 1: You're such a shit.
Speaker 3: Does anyone else smell burnt toes? Give me your normal voice,
Speaker 3: your silly bugger.
Speaker 1: Oh, don't tell me how to speak me.
Speaker 2: I know how to speak.
Speaker 1: It's willing, it's willing. Why and you're not talking to
Speaker 1: Fred again? You're talking to Tom Cashman.
Speaker 5: I knew it.
Speaker 2: Actually, I feel viscerally uncomfortable listening to it.
Speaker 4: Oh look, it gives me a giggle, but only because
Speaker 4: I know that you're strong enough, Brazilian enough to overcome this.
Speaker 2: And sometimes when you work in radio, your free game,
Speaker 2: we all do it to each other.
Speaker 5: You just have to.
Speaker 1: I've been doing this for like ten years and I've
Speaker 1: never preaked anyone. I don't like.
Speaker 10: That's not true.
Speaker 1: Guess what I am scorned? This is war, Will and Woody.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a three to four pm war, three to
Speaker 2: four war. I'm read for it. We're gonna pre I
Speaker 2: just came to me right now. I think it's time
Speaker 2: to get one up on them.
Speaker 1: Let's get them back.
Speaker 7: We've got to come up with something to our radio show.
Speaker 7: We can't cannive up this plan while they're listening to.
Speaker 5: The next door.
Speaker 1: I can see Woody.
Speaker 4: No, but I do think that maybe they need to
Speaker 4: watch their backs because you can't mess with that.
Speaker 1: That was such a like loss of threat.
Speaker 2: That was the mummiest threat I've ever heard.
Speaker 4: Because I feel like if it's part and parcel of
Speaker 4: being with radio, I don't like how far they went
Speaker 4: with it.
Speaker 2: And I know that you're a bit upset, Mitch, because
Speaker 2: it was. It was a disappointing one, But I do I.
Speaker 7: Think you've got to be imagine if you thought like
Speaker 7: I would be devoed, if I thought I was about
Speaker 7: to interview like somebody that I would I looked up to,
Speaker 7: or that it was amazing, and you prepped it and
Speaker 7: you were like pumped, and then it was psych spoilers,
Speaker 7: just bob down the road, devot.
Speaker 3: I called my brother in law and asked him if
Speaker 3: you knew about Freddi again? He did, It's most people
Speaker 3: the bonded in two years of knowing each other. And
Speaker 3: then he called me after and he went, how was
Speaker 3: fred again? And I didn't have the guts yet?
Speaker 1: Good regards? All right, Well will mony if you're listening,
Speaker 1: baby four War three and four, we'll see you tomorrow
Speaker 1: to end the week. Goodbye, everyone, say guys,
