<v Speaker 1>Also a Friday.

0:00:47.845 --> 0:00:51.885
<v Speaker 2>One of the most popular features we do are our recommendations.

0:00:52.284 --> 0:00:55.005
<v Speaker 2>We live in a kind of golden age of choice

0:00:55.045 --> 0:00:56.245
<v Speaker 2>now for TV.

0:00:57.485 --> 0:00:58.325
<v Speaker 1>Back in the day, for.

0:00:58.405 --> 0:01:00.325
<v Speaker 2>Most of us of a certain age, TV used to

0:01:00.365 --> 0:01:03.205
<v Speaker 2>shut down. There was one or two channels, there was

0:01:03.245 --> 0:01:06.125
<v Speaker 2>no choice. The TV was on when the TV wanted

0:01:06.165 --> 0:01:08.245
<v Speaker 2>to be on, and then they totally go bed at night.

0:01:08.285 --> 0:01:09.765
<v Speaker 1>Now, well, every.

0:01:09.565 --> 0:01:13.045
<v Speaker 2>Movie, that's literally every movie that's ever been made is

0:01:13.325 --> 0:01:16.525
<v Speaker 2>two seconds away. We're powa lined by choice. Though every

0:01:16.525 --> 0:01:19.005
<v Speaker 2>Friday there's too many TV shows?

0:01:19.205 --> 0:01:21.365
<v Speaker 1>Is that good? I don't want I don't like that guy.

0:01:21.725 --> 0:01:22.765
<v Speaker 1>He's always a good guy.

0:01:22.765 --> 0:01:25.085
<v Speaker 2>He's always a bad guy that you get all these

0:01:25.125 --> 0:01:27.045
<v Speaker 2>arguments now on the couch. Trying to find a TV

0:01:27.085 --> 0:01:29.805
<v Speaker 2>show that works for everybody is really hard. You're not

0:01:29.845 --> 0:01:32.165
<v Speaker 2>going to go online starts with research and shows you

0:01:32.205 --> 0:01:34.765
<v Speaker 2>don't know. If you trust Rotten Tomatoes, we are here

0:01:34.885 --> 0:01:37.405
<v Speaker 2>for you. We have our recommendations. It might be books,

0:01:37.445 --> 0:01:39.125
<v Speaker 2>it might be TV shows to stream and watch, it

0:01:39.205 --> 0:01:42.245
<v Speaker 2>might be movies, apps, anything that we're genuinely into and

0:01:42.325 --> 0:01:45.485
<v Speaker 2>enjoyed we recommend to you guys. This also works the

0:01:45.525 --> 0:01:47.525
<v Speaker 2>same way you recommend. What have you enjoyed the last

0:01:47.565 --> 0:01:50.205
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks? Lots of big shows over Christmas and movies?

0:01:50.245 --> 0:01:52.805
<v Speaker 2>What have you really enjoyed? Share it with me? Four

0:01:52.885 --> 0:01:55.645
<v Speaker 2>seven five three one oh four three. A couple of

0:01:55.645 --> 0:01:57.005
<v Speaker 2>things for me to go to go in there. First

0:01:57.045 --> 0:02:01.245
<v Speaker 2>of all, I am I love more technology, but I

0:02:01.245 --> 0:02:03.365
<v Speaker 2>am somewhat of an analogue rebel.

0:02:03.605 --> 0:02:04.445
<v Speaker 1>I say this right now.

0:02:04.445 --> 0:02:06.325
<v Speaker 2>We're ware that I brought my Polaroid camera into the

0:02:06.365 --> 0:02:08.204
<v Speaker 2>studio today. I want to get some photos of you

0:02:08.245 --> 0:02:11.525
<v Speaker 2>all to mark. I want an actual physical reminder of

0:02:11.565 --> 0:02:15.484
<v Speaker 2>week one of our national radio show, right and yeah,

0:02:15.484 --> 0:02:15.924
<v Speaker 2>I could do.

0:02:15.885 --> 0:02:16.565
<v Speaker 1>It on my phone.

0:02:16.605 --> 0:02:19.645
<v Speaker 2>It sits on my phone it sits on my phone

0:02:19.645 --> 0:02:21.925
<v Speaker 2>with the thousands of other photos I'm never really going

0:02:21.965 --> 0:02:24.965
<v Speaker 2>to look back on. The polaroid camera does not take

0:02:25.365 --> 0:02:28.605
<v Speaker 2>very good photos. Even if I'm one foot away from you,

0:02:29.005 --> 0:02:30.765
<v Speaker 2>it still looks like we're at the bottom of a

0:02:30.805 --> 0:02:31.484
<v Speaker 2>mine in Perth.

0:02:32.085 --> 0:02:35.605
<v Speaker 1>However, I love those polaroid photos. So a long part

0:02:35.605 --> 0:02:35.765
<v Speaker 1>of it.

0:02:35.845 --> 0:02:38.484
<v Speaker 2>But the big thing I'm starting this with this year

0:02:38.525 --> 0:02:41.965
<v Speaker 2>with is a pocket diary old score and bringing m

0:02:42.085 --> 0:02:42.485
<v Speaker 2>right now.

0:02:42.605 --> 0:02:44.005
<v Speaker 1>Yes it is mock leopard skin.

0:02:44.485 --> 0:02:48.565
<v Speaker 3>Notice that leopard skin diary.

0:02:48.645 --> 0:02:51.605
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think as I head into eight years living

0:02:51.605 --> 0:02:55.645
<v Speaker 2>in Australia, I think I'm awakening my eboguy. Definitely the

0:02:55.685 --> 0:02:58.405
<v Speaker 2>mock leopard skin pocket diary spoke to me and I've

0:02:58.445 --> 0:03:01.365
<v Speaker 2>got it now. I do have quite nae handwriting, so

0:03:01.405 --> 0:03:04.085
<v Speaker 2>I've only ever got room for one or two things

0:03:04.125 --> 0:03:06.965
<v Speaker 2>a day. So it's actually happening to me really focus

0:03:07.005 --> 0:03:09.204
<v Speaker 2>on what's es central day to day, not in the

0:03:09.285 --> 0:03:11.325
<v Speaker 2>kind of minimalist way just because I don't have room.

0:03:11.525 --> 0:03:12.805
<v Speaker 2>You know, people say I don't have room at the

0:03:12.805 --> 0:03:14.485
<v Speaker 2>moment in my schedule, I really don't have room to

0:03:14.485 --> 0:03:17.325
<v Speaker 2>write it today. What have I got? The air task

0:03:17.365 --> 0:03:19.245
<v Speaker 2>of Vick is coming at three point thirty. I've got

0:03:19.245 --> 0:03:21.805
<v Speaker 2>a point with Larry Ender at ten to twenty five.

0:03:21.885 --> 0:03:24.725
<v Speaker 2>That's right, I'm on Channel seven talking about I'm like, yeah,

0:03:24.725 --> 0:03:29.605
<v Speaker 2>I'm on your home I Channel seven best. I will yes,

0:03:30.205 --> 0:03:32.805
<v Speaker 2>non stop Lass attack me and last ten to twenty five.

0:03:33.085 --> 0:03:35.325
<v Speaker 2>So that the other thing that I've really enjoyed over

0:03:35.405 --> 0:03:38.845
<v Speaker 2>Christmas I loved the Netflix show Runaway. I thought was

0:03:38.965 --> 0:03:43.125
<v Speaker 2>absolutely outstanding, thriller, very very good, starring a great Irish

0:03:43.125 --> 0:03:45.325
<v Speaker 2>out to James Nesbit. And then the thing I got

0:03:45.325 --> 0:03:47.765
<v Speaker 2>This is a Christmas present for one of my kids

0:03:47.805 --> 0:03:50.805
<v Speaker 2>who loves true crime, absolutely loves it. Ruby, my twenty

0:03:50.845 --> 0:03:53.125
<v Speaker 2>moe old daughter loves true crime, and I found out

0:03:53.165 --> 0:03:58.605
<v Speaker 2>you could get this interactive detective for a day. It's

0:03:58.925 --> 0:04:03.405
<v Speaker 2>an evidence wallet arrives okay, it takes three to four

0:04:03.445 --> 0:04:05.485
<v Speaker 2>hours to solve the crime.

0:04:05.525 --> 0:04:07.685
<v Speaker 1>As a group or yeah no, no, he plays a group.

0:04:08.005 --> 0:04:10.005
<v Speaker 2>I had to go and get my big I've got

0:04:10.045 --> 0:04:12.525
<v Speaker 2>a court board that I use for ideas and planning stuff,

0:04:12.725 --> 0:04:15.285
<v Speaker 2>and so I had to use it. You get the photos,

0:04:15.685 --> 0:04:20.284
<v Speaker 2>newspaper reports, forensic reports that are so detailed you have

0:04:20.404 --> 0:04:22.605
<v Speaker 2>to work together to work out who it was, and

0:04:22.685 --> 0:04:24.604
<v Speaker 2>it has rounds and you can't go to the next

0:04:24.685 --> 0:04:27.445
<v Speaker 2>round until you make a guess, and then you turn

0:04:27.484 --> 0:04:28.964
<v Speaker 2>over the next guard and it says with your right

0:04:29.044 --> 0:04:30.525
<v Speaker 2>or wrong? When you need to go back and look

0:04:30.525 --> 0:04:33.844
<v Speaker 2>at the evidence trail again, you have to review witness

0:04:33.844 --> 0:04:35.245
<v Speaker 2>statements that are typed up.

0:04:35.685 --> 0:04:37.085
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know it would be this much fun. It's

0:04:37.085 --> 0:04:38.444
<v Speaker 1>called Detector for a day. It is.

0:04:38.724 --> 0:04:40.284
<v Speaker 2>We're doing it. We've got a couple to do this

0:04:40.325 --> 0:04:43.724
<v Speaker 2>weekend because she's getting over surgery. It's great fun. If

0:04:43.765 --> 0:04:47.005
<v Speaker 2>you want to do something different that's interactive with mates

0:04:47.245 --> 0:04:48.964
<v Speaker 2>or with family, Detective for a day.

0:04:49.445 --> 0:04:51.044
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't believe how detailed it is.

0:04:51.205 --> 0:04:52.525
<v Speaker 3>Do you do it as a team or are you

0:04:52.645 --> 0:04:53.285
<v Speaker 3>working against it?

0:04:53.445 --> 0:04:54.645
<v Speaker 1>No? No, you got to do it as a team.

0:04:54.724 --> 0:04:55.964
<v Speaker 3>Ah sick. That sounds great.

0:04:56.044 --> 0:04:58.484
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and there's red herrings and that it's really really

0:04:58.525 --> 0:05:01.724
<v Speaker 2>good fun. I'm not someone that normally has the concentration

0:05:02.125 --> 0:05:04.404
<v Speaker 2>to sit down for a couple of hours unfocused on

0:05:04.484 --> 0:05:07.604
<v Speaker 2>a singular tasks. That's why speaking every three minutes about

0:05:07.645 --> 0:05:10.724
<v Speaker 2>something random. Perfect job for me, don't breakfast radio.

0:05:10.924 --> 0:05:11.845
<v Speaker 1>But I love this.

0:05:12.284 --> 0:05:14.685
<v Speaker 2>Even their kids are like my god, dad's still sap focused,

0:05:15.885 --> 0:05:17.205
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm a human Lambrador.

0:05:17.325 --> 0:05:18.404
<v Speaker 3>Isn't that a tantrum yet?

0:05:19.964 --> 0:05:21.885
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, that's it for me, Rya. What are you into?

0:05:21.885 --> 0:05:23.405
<v Speaker 2>What are your Friday recommendations?

0:05:23.445 --> 0:05:26.044
<v Speaker 4>I am watching Ball Kids on Netflix, which is a

0:05:26.125 --> 0:05:30.845
<v Speaker 4>documentary about the surprisingly competitive, ruthless world of the Australian

0:05:30.885 --> 0:05:31.844
<v Speaker 4>open ball kids.

0:05:31.885 --> 0:05:32.925
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I have to see that.

0:05:34.044 --> 0:05:36.684
<v Speaker 4>It's sort of like drive to survive, but for ball kids,

0:05:37.005 --> 0:05:37.485
<v Speaker 4>because you.

0:05:37.445 --> 0:05:43.684
<v Speaker 2>Know, come on, one is an extreme edgy sport.

0:05:43.885 --> 0:05:46.645
<v Speaker 3>This is more competitive running to pick up a little ball. No,

0:05:46.724 --> 0:05:48.564
<v Speaker 3>that's what you think. That's what you think.

0:05:48.645 --> 0:05:52.844
<v Speaker 4>But actually they're all competing against each other for this

0:05:52.964 --> 0:05:54.844
<v Speaker 4>top gong at the end called top Gun.

0:05:54.924 --> 0:05:56.164
<v Speaker 3>So two of them get crowned.

0:05:56.325 --> 0:05:59.484
<v Speaker 4>There's six judges at every single match watching every move

0:05:59.525 --> 0:06:01.884
<v Speaker 4>that the ball kids do. Are they dragging their foot

0:06:01.885 --> 0:06:03.925
<v Speaker 4>too much? Are are they rolling the ball a bit

0:06:03.964 --> 0:06:06.164
<v Speaker 4>too high? Are they fast enough at the net? Every

0:06:06.245 --> 0:06:09.404
<v Speaker 4>single move is scrutinized and marked. And then at the

0:06:09.525 --> 0:06:11.885
<v Speaker 4>end of it, they get picked for finals, and two

0:06:12.005 --> 0:06:15.004
<v Speaker 4>of them get picked for the top gone top gong,

0:06:15.164 --> 0:06:18.884
<v Speaker 4>which is top Gun, And so they're all completely makes.

0:06:18.724 --> 0:06:21.604
<v Speaker 2>Sense because I have wondered how do they select who

0:06:21.645 --> 0:06:23.164
<v Speaker 2>goes through to do the finals?

0:06:23.284 --> 0:06:25.005
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because you can't muck that up.

0:06:25.085 --> 0:06:28.885
<v Speaker 4>It's a really rigorous process and it's they're really like, how.

0:06:28.765 --> 0:06:30.924
<v Speaker 2>Do they even make it to be working at the

0:06:30.964 --> 0:06:32.164
<v Speaker 2>finals at Slam.

0:06:32.404 --> 0:06:37.204
<v Speaker 4>Five thousand entrance and only I think it's three hundred

0:06:37.245 --> 0:06:39.404
<v Speaker 4>get picked and they go through boot camp.

0:06:39.445 --> 0:06:41.724
<v Speaker 3>It's six months of training to become a ball kid.

0:06:41.804 --> 0:06:42.525
<v Speaker 1>I did not know.

0:06:42.885 --> 0:06:44.684
<v Speaker 4>They put their heart and soul into it. It's like

0:06:45.125 --> 0:06:48.085
<v Speaker 4>it takes up half their year just to get that such.

0:06:47.964 --> 0:06:50.845
<v Speaker 2>You know, I wonder if there are people listening right

0:06:50.844 --> 0:06:54.244
<v Speaker 2>now whose kids have done it. All the kids now

0:06:54.284 --> 0:06:56.004
