Speaker 1: Is it just me a podcast by a couple of mitches?
Speaker 2: Well, is this a nice surprise? Hello everyone?
Speaker 3: I bet you thought you saw the last about Live
Speaker 3: from Glebe.
Speaker 2: I just about to give my address out. That's not fair.
Speaker 2: From the Glebe. The tower, I don't know. It's Mitch Churry,
Speaker 2: Mitchell Coombs. What tower are you in?
Speaker 3: I'm back in bog and Gate, back at Mam and
Speaker 3: Dad's play. Still here for Christmas and New Year's. You're
Speaker 3: still in Sydney, right, Mitch?
Speaker 4: You're at home?
Speaker 2: I'm here, Yeah, I mean, I mean Glebe at home.
Speaker 2: I'm on holidays. I've cleaned the house twice, I've vacuumed
Speaker 2: over the vacuuming. I've got no pants on, I've made pancakes.
Speaker 2: What else is there to do?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 3: Thank God, there's like hundreds and hundreds of kilometers between us.
Speaker 3: If you ever showed up to the studio with no
Speaker 3: pants on, I'll be furious.
Speaker 2: I mean white underpants too, they're almost translucent. I really
Speaker 2: didn't think it through. Thank God. There's no cameras here,
Speaker 2: but I am here. Jena is here too, Hi, Jenna, Hi,
Speaker 2: Hello our third wheel groundskeeper. Jenna.
Speaker 3: Happy New year, Happy New Year to YouTube Mitch. How's
Speaker 3: everyone doing in twenty twenty one so far?
Speaker 2: Yes, it's it was exactly the same. In fact, I
Speaker 2: think I'm so much fatter. I think I've put on
Speaker 2: ten kilos in three days. I don't know how it's happened.
Speaker 4: Me too, it's bad.
Speaker 3: I've also been like, I don't even have a new
Speaker 3: New Year's resolution. It's just kind of what my New
Speaker 3: Year's resolution was. Towards the end of the year, you
Speaker 3: know how, I was like, Oh, I want to cut
Speaker 3: back drinking. Like, I'm not going to cut it out altogether.
Speaker 3: I just want to drink less than I do. Perhaps well,
Speaker 3: I did start drinking less towards the end of the year,
Speaker 3: but oh my god, I've really the last two weeks
Speaker 3: has this completely undone any progress I made. I've just
Speaker 3: been drunk the whole time.
Speaker 6: Really?
Speaker 2: Is that a family thing? Do your family get boozy
Speaker 2: at Christmas? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And not necessarily in like a bad ways. It's like, oh, oh,
Speaker 3: the neighbors have come over and we'll have a drink.
Speaker 3: Oh they've left, and now you know that our auntie
Speaker 3: up the roads come and I'll have a drink and
Speaker 3: we just realized after all this socializing that they all
Speaker 3: seem to involve drinking, and I'm like, God, I've just
Speaker 3: I've put some recovery today. I'm gonna have to do
Speaker 3: a cleanse of some shit in Sydney when I get back.
Speaker 2: All on off the wagon. I can almost hear your
Speaker 2: throat closing up to your Paul thing. You've had the
Speaker 2: logic reaction, haven't you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a bit embarrassing.
Speaker 3: You guys know how I love my sensory toys, like
Speaker 3: my squishy stress balls and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Oh don't.
Speaker 3: Of course, it turns out that Plato is quite a
Speaker 3: fun sensory toy as well. My niece and nephew with
Speaker 3: you over Christmas and I was playing Plato with them
Speaker 3: and then I just broke out in this massive rash
Speaker 3: and all these hives. I couldn't sleep because I was
Speaker 3: so itchy, and we didn't know what the allergy was
Speaker 3: at the time. But then it's happened a few more
Speaker 3: times and we've put it back down to the Plato,
Speaker 3: which is just imagine trying to explain that to the doctor.
Speaker 5: Doctor.
Speaker 3: I need an aed to hiss meme, because I'm a
Speaker 3: grown adult that I've been playing with Plato.
Speaker 2: I need some Claraty and he's like, oh, degn, you
Speaker 2: had some craft peanut butter, did you?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: I played with yellow playdo when it got underneath my
Speaker 2: fingernails and now I can't breathe properly.
Speaker 3: Did you see the video? I put it on my TikTok.
Speaker 3: It was me mixing all the colors together.
Speaker 1: It was very impressive. I quite liked it.
Speaker 2: It was very impressive. You really were asking for it.
Speaker 2: That's that's quite horrific. I can't believe it didn't really before,
Speaker 2: Like you haven't played with Plato as a kid?
Speaker 3: No, I did, but I never had that problem. I
Speaker 3: don't know if it's developed over the years, but yeah,
Speaker 3: there you go. No more Plato for me.
Speaker 1: Maybe they added more ingredients to.
Speaker 4: It since it well, they must have.
Speaker 3: But the thing is, I because I loved it so
Speaker 3: much when I first started playing with it, I was like,
Speaker 3: I've got to get me some of this. So I
Speaker 3: literally click and collected from when I get back to
Speaker 3: Sydney a bunch of Plato. And so now that I've
Speaker 3: realized I'm allergic, I'm like, what the fuck am I
Speaker 3: going to do with all this Plato.
Speaker 2: Oh no, let's still a Plato giveaway instead of leave
Speaker 2: a review and you get, you get the spaghetti Plato
Speaker 2: making kid. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now that we've run out of mugs and we've still
Speaker 3: got red Rooster bouchers for anyone that leaves the review,
Speaker 3: we'll have to start giving away Plato at some point too.
Speaker 4: I've got I've got oodles of it. What do I
Speaker 4: do with it?
Speaker 2: Also, the people that messaged me before the Christmas break
Speaker 2: about the mugs. I got one yesterday saying Hi, Imach,
Speaker 2: Happy New Year. Still haven't received my mug. Don't message
Speaker 2: me now. It's in the off season. I'll sort your
Speaker 2: mug in due time. People want these mugs just like
Speaker 2: they're a fucking Oscar reward, Like relax, it'll come.
Speaker 3: It's because we put our foot down and said that
Speaker 3: you have to you have to contact us within a
Speaker 3: week of hearing the episode or you don't get the mug.
Speaker 2: So I know one girl. The one girl screenshot her
Speaker 2: original message date and said, just FYI, I messaged you
Speaker 2: within the date, then sent me a screenshot of the
Speaker 2: episode she was mentioned in. I'm like, all right, babe,
Speaker 2: you're not applying for a fucking border permit. It's all good,
Speaker 2: you'll get your mug relax.
Speaker 4: I don't want to.
Speaker 3: I don't want to be involved in all the prizing.
Speaker 3: It sounds very stressful. You can look after that. No
Speaker 3: that speaking of the border closures or whatever you just said,
Speaker 3: aren't you meant to be in Queensland right now?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, Oh I'm meant to be sitting by the
Speaker 2: pool and the pallas over Sadchi a six star hotel,
Speaker 2: didn't even know they were possible, but they heard I
Speaker 2: was coming and they had at an extra star. I
Speaker 2: booked well in advance that I had flights and everything organized,
Speaker 2: and it's all since been canceled.
Speaker 1: Oh and when did you book it? When did you
Speaker 1: book it?
Speaker 2: We only booked it two days for all the cancelations. Sorry,
Speaker 2: all the border closures went into place. Well like, let's
Speaker 2: leave it till the last minute, and then we did,
Speaker 2: and we're like, all right, we probably should book now.
Speaker 2: So he booked accommodation and then bloody you know, Plebiseca
Speaker 2: whatever the premier's name is, said everything is closing. You
Speaker 2: cannot come to Queensland, and we just yeah, we've had
Speaker 2: to cancel everything we got our money back. It was fine,
Speaker 2: But yeah.
Speaker 3: I haven't had much luck this year with cancelations and
Speaker 3: stuff like Miley canceled the Melbourne concert that you were
Speaker 3: going to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot about Yeah, I know the start of
Speaker 2: Sorry last year, I should say it's twenty twenty one.
Speaker 4: Now that was last year.
Speaker 2: Oh, very true. Sound like my taxi driver on New
Speaker 2: Year's Eve. He was like, oh see you next year. Well,
Speaker 2: you're probably never going to see me again. The odds
Speaker 2: of this happening are very slim, but sure make that
Speaker 2: joke every every passenger tonight. But anyway, we still need
Speaker 2: to go on a holiday. Let's go down the South
Speaker 2: Coast of Australia. Clear no one there will have COVID,
Speaker 2: so we book a hotel at a beautiful resort down
Speaker 2: in Mollymook, and then we get the notification Wollongong on
Speaker 2: the South Coast shut down, confirmed case of COVID cluster
Speaker 2: in Wollongong. So now the South Coast is looking like
Speaker 2: it's going to get shout down next week.
Speaker 4: No hell, so you're just going to have to stay
Speaker 4: at home.
Speaker 2: Yesterday, Hayden and I didn't know what to do. We
Speaker 2: had nothing to do. So we went to my parents'
Speaker 2: house and they even had plans, they couldn't squeeze us
Speaker 2: into that schedule. So we just sat at home at
Speaker 2: my parents' house in the air conditioning. We have nothing
Speaker 2: to do. What do you do when you spare time
Speaker 2: so difficult?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I've just been drinking, making tiktoks and stuff
Speaker 3: like that. I'm not sure what's going to happen when
Speaker 3: I get back to Sydney because I've still got a
Speaker 3: bit of time before i have to go back to work.
Speaker 3: I'm not actually sure when I'm going to be able
Speaker 3: to get back because how ironic is this? This time
Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen or start of twenty twenty, I should say,
Speaker 3: the whole Blood Country was on fire and everything was
Speaker 3: dry and gross because of the drought. Now I'm not
Speaker 3: sure when I'll be able to come back to Sydney
Speaker 3: because I maybe flooded in.
Speaker 4: How weird is that?
Speaker 2: Oh? My, oh, your poor thing, Your poor parents, What
Speaker 2: a roller coaster? Is it their property?
Speaker 3: Okay, oh yeah, everything's fine. It's like it's just the
Speaker 3: land of extremes. Or there's this massive in parks and
Speaker 3: it usually takes around three days for all that water
Speaker 3: to trickle down the lake that goes across like near
Speaker 3: my farm, and so it's the roads nearby. Usually takes
Speaker 3: around three days for them to flood. And I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: it's been three days, Okay, great, So I'm just waiting,
Speaker 3: waiting and seeing.
Speaker 2: When did you start back at work officially.
Speaker 4: January eleventh?
Speaker 1: The thing, Yeah, I start back then as well. But
Speaker 1: my boss called you know our boss, Kieran who we
Speaker 1: had on the show, Yes, he called me the podcast.
Speaker 1: He called me the other day saying he was actually
Speaker 1: quite angry, saying, you've been working during your break because
Speaker 1: I was so bored that I did do it, uploaded
Speaker 1: a photo.
Speaker 4: And you're meant to be taking time off.
Speaker 1: Well, he's disciplined me and said you're not coming back till.
Speaker 4: The twelfth, so he's giving you an extra day off.
Speaker 3: Yes, what a monster, a monster that never happens.
Speaker 2: That's ridiculous, that never happens yet that that can't be
Speaker 2: a true story.
Speaker 1: And then he said he might restrict my access.
Speaker 2: You don't go to prison, and then and then the
Speaker 2: prison guard doesn't go. You know what, you were very
Speaker 2: good during breakfast this morning. Go I know you killed
Speaker 2: twelve children on a school bus. But you can leave today.
Speaker 2: Go on, you were very good, get out of here.
Speaker 4: Go buy the something nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, choget yourself an eye hat because you've got bodily
Speaker 2: scars all over yourself from being attacked in the showers.
Speaker 2: Go buy a hat or a face mask. Well done, Jenna.
Speaker 3: Here's Jenna and I rubbing in the fact that we've
Speaker 3: had all this time off and we've still got even
Speaker 3: more time up our sleep.
Speaker 5: Mitch.
Speaker 3: Didn't you literally work up until New Year It's like
Speaker 3: you working on New Year's Eve?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've Yeah, my holidays have just started. Like on
Speaker 2: the first was my first day of holidays. So I
Speaker 2: worked right up until Yeah, New Year's Eve, literally until midnight.
Speaker 2: I worked up. I was essentially working in twenty twenty one,
Speaker 2: and I didn't stop and have any day. I had
Speaker 2: Christmas and Boxing Day off. Everything was pre recorded and
Speaker 2: then I had to go straight back to work. And
Speaker 2: because there's no one, it's actually more intense. We're on
Speaker 2: skeleton staff. I was like, that's a complement. The first
Speaker 2: time I was ever been called thin, But I'll take
Speaker 2: it skeleton stuff. So it was just me and one
Speaker 2: other person, the skeleton stuff. I kept going boom, this is.
Speaker 3: Actually perfect timing. I can't believe this has happened. Now,
Speaker 3: this is ridiculous. I just got a text saying, oh,
Speaker 3: your delivery has been your your order has been delivered.
Speaker 3: So you know how you only just went on leave
Speaker 3: mit tool.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I felt bad for the fact that you'd had no
Speaker 3: time off and that you were only just starting your holiday,
Speaker 3: So I sent a little something is it?
Speaker 4: Is it at your house? I just got a text
Speaker 4: saying it's been delivered?
Speaker 2: You send something to my house. Oh my god, that's
Speaker 2: Hayden something you just got to Can you hear my
Speaker 2: text going off? I can hear it. Hayden says something
Speaker 2: is at the front of Oh my god, I'm in
Speaker 2: my under pants. I'm gonna have to put pants on.
Speaker 4: I can't believe I ordered it days ago.
Speaker 2: I would normally play elevator music during this period. Have
Speaker 2: any to edit the elevant music and I'll be right back.
Speaker 1: I'm so sweet. Oh, I really want to know.
Speaker 6: I want to know what it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I felt like I needed to do something nice,
Speaker 4: you know, Dinna.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so nice. Hopefully night delivery there in time
Speaker 1: as well.
Speaker 4: I can hear his footsteps. Oh my gosh, I'm oh hello,
Speaker 4: here's what is it?
Speaker 5: What this is?
Speaker 2: Oh my god?
Speaker 5: What is this?
Speaker 2: Is so exciting? What is it? Mitchell?
Speaker 7: This is very sweet.
Speaker 2: It's a small box, the size of maybe a child
Speaker 2: size four shoe box, lamb. And there's a card on top.
Speaker 2: Let you read it out or is it personal?
Speaker 4: I don't think it's too personally. You read it out, it.
Speaker 2: Says happy New Year. Can't wait to start podcasting with
Speaker 2: you again in twenty twenty one. Once you're feeling rested,
Speaker 2: you deserve a break, so take all the time you need.
Speaker 2: This is very sweet, Mitchell.
Speaker 7: Do you know what?
Speaker 3: It's actually hilarious that this has turned up while we're recording,
Speaker 3: Like what are the odds of that? You would almost
Speaker 3: think that I'm some evil genius that I plan this
Speaker 3: just because I wanted to look good on this bonus episode,
Speaker 3: Like look how nice I am everyone. I was gonna
Speaker 3: let that be just an off air thing that happened
Speaker 3: privately between us, but there you go, it's happened now.
Speaker 2: Okay, so I've opened it up. This is very sweet.
Speaker 2: This is very nice, and it's catered to me. Normally
Speaker 2: you get these, and it's like a donut with twelve
Speaker 2: kit cats shoved inside it, and someone's crushed a twirl
Speaker 2: and they've put three green m and ms on it.
Speaker 2: It's like great fancy donut, that's who I thought it was.
Speaker 7: But no, it's like a.
Speaker 2: Little minish do I white chikuterie board. There's a bree
Speaker 2: cheese and there's a little prosecco, and there's crackers and
Speaker 2: there's chocolate. This is very sweet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there were lots of options on the website I
Speaker 3: was looking at, and I was just gonna do like
Speaker 3: a chocolate bouquet or something. But I figured, because I
Speaker 3: don't know about you, I actually have this written on
Speaker 3: my is it just me? List for next year, but hey,
Speaker 3: I may as well bash it out now.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Is it just me?
Speaker 3: Or does it suck when everyone just gives you chocolate
Speaker 3: as like a filler present for Christmas?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: I got so much of it, and so I ended
Speaker 3: up thinking I could send chocolates. But then I'm like,
Speaker 3: he's probably gotten so much already that I'll send something else.
Speaker 4: And I found that. Thank god.
Speaker 2: Oh guys, that is very sweet. That's very thoughtful.
Speaker 4: Why are you saying, guys?
Speaker 5: It was me.
Speaker 1: Actually I did have something to do with the gift.
Speaker 4: I pick no Jenna had that, but don't you dare
Speaker 4: try and take credit.
Speaker 2: Oh this is so so sweet.
Speaker 4: I went against the chocolate thing, as I figured that
Speaker 4: you would have gotten it. I got this, like you
Speaker 4: could tell that.
Speaker 3: One of the aunts was like, I'm just gonna go
Speaker 3: buy a million boxes of favorites and give them to
Speaker 3: all the nieces and nephews just as like, just so
Speaker 3: that I've given them something, because I can't actually be ballied.
Speaker 4: And so we all just got that. And then another
Speaker 4: aunt did the same thing. So I got a tobler
Speaker 4: and I was like, oh, it's just so much chocolate.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's too much. I got that much, Darrie Rocky Road.
Speaker 2: I could pay the new Body Highway and your Ganda
Speaker 2: for all those kids. There is that much and I
Speaker 2: just don't need it.
Speaker 4: It's like, it's so nice that you did that.
Speaker 3: It's like a nice token gift just to say yes,
Speaker 3: I thought that you know you're mean enough to me
Speaker 3: that I wanted to give you a gift.
Speaker 4: But I'm like, just not chocolate. Like, what are some
Speaker 4: alternative feeler gifts that people can get a candle.
Speaker 2: A candle always works well, and love me a candle definitely.
Speaker 2: I got a wick a wick trimmer.
Speaker 4: Oh, what's wrong with scissors?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Wow, what what's wrong with scissors? Why do you need
Speaker 4: a wick trimmer?
Speaker 2: No, Mitchell, you would love it. It's like perfectly measured
Speaker 2: and it's long and slender, and like you know, with scissors,
Speaker 2: the little finger holes are quite close to the blades.
Speaker 2: The finger holes are right at the end of like
Speaker 2: a twenty centimeters piece of metal, so like you don't
Speaker 2: never burn your fingers, you just go straight in and go.
Speaker 4: Chin's so good.
Speaker 2: They're so good.
Speaker 1: I've got one.
Speaker 2: It's a dust one.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's the one I have as well, Dusk.
Speaker 3: You know what ause the thing with candles that they're
Speaker 3: kind of expensive, so I can see why someone would
Speaker 3: just get a box of chocolates because it's like a
Speaker 3: nice token and it was only seven bucks. But you
Speaker 3: know another thing that I actually really think it's quite clever.
Speaker 3: One of my uncles every year just gives us all
Speaker 3: a card with a scratching in it, so it's like
Speaker 3: you could be a millionaire or not.
Speaker 2: That's good, Yeah, here's the chance, but it's your fault
Speaker 2: if you fuck it up. I actually haven't scratched it yet.
Speaker 4: Should I scratch it now?
Speaker 2: Yes? Oh my god, scratch Imagine if you win Local
Speaker 2: Bogan gate boy who online sensation six years ago wins
Speaker 2: big While holidaying with family.
Speaker 3: I put on my cards back in my suitcase, so
Speaker 3: I have to find it, like Scratchy from Uncle Trevor,
Speaker 3: get them out.
Speaker 2: This box is very nice, Mitchell. First time I've ever
Speaker 2: been surprised by a box. But it is very sweet.
Speaker 4: Weak enjoy it.
Speaker 2: I've only just clicked over to holiday mode too. I
Speaker 2: mean this is my second day.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of perfect.
Speaker 5: So well it did.
Speaker 2: It was very well timed. The worst thing about Christmas
Speaker 2: gifts is when they've got Christmas packaging, so you can't
Speaker 2: even keep the bastards to regive them because they know
Speaker 2: that they were gifted from Christmas.
Speaker 5: You know what I did.
Speaker 3: I got a bunch of presents for people this year,
Speaker 3: and none of them had Christmas wrapping on it. Remember
Speaker 3: in our last episode of the season, we did our
Speaker 3: gift exchange on the show. Did either of you notice
Speaker 3: any merry Christmas?
Speaker 4: Ho?
Speaker 1: Ho?
Speaker 5: Shit?
Speaker 4: I gave that she so that you'd be able to
Speaker 4: reuse the box.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that is so funny that you say that,
Speaker 2: because Hayden and I just cleaned out all our Christmas
Speaker 2: stuff and you're the only two Christmas presents left under
Speaker 2: our wonky Limp dick tree for Mitchell and for Jenna,
Speaker 2: and the box with all your lavender shit in it.
Speaker 2: So Hayden's like, should we keep this box? I said, yes,
Speaker 2: we can regive that box, and you look full circle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I told you, And I did the same thing
Speaker 3: for Mum's presents and everyone else's. I've got like just
Speaker 3: generic wrapping paper and generic bags and stuff because I'm
Speaker 3: like I appreciate a good bag I can reuse.
Speaker 2: That's a level of thoughtfulness that is, yeah, unparalleled. All right,
Speaker 2: do you have these scratches?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I just found them.
Speaker 2: Could give you some dramatic music. Hold on, I do
Speaker 2: have sound effects here. Everyone, This is my at home radio.
Speaker 4: Should you have sound effects in your home studio?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Really? Just just say all right, I'm about to
Speaker 2: scratch the scratchy Mitch.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, I'm about to scratch the scratchy Sorry.
Speaker 2: Wrong one?
Speaker 1: What was that?
Speaker 5: Sorry?
Speaker 2: That's like a and then the what about that? Aeroplane food.
Speaker 2: It's the symbols, Jenna. Why don't you say I'm just
Speaker 2: about to stand up. I'm just about to stand up.
Speaker 2: Oh there's crickets falling out of Jenna. That's awful.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 2: Anyway, sorry, Jane. I don't know what the other ones do,
Speaker 2: so I won't play them. How are you going with that, buddy,
Speaker 2: Scratchy Mitchell. I can't find a coin.
Speaker 3: I don't really carry change anymore. I don't have anything
Speaker 3: to scratch it with one. I see you and Jane
Speaker 3: have one, so suspenseful, Jane, do you can I have
Speaker 3: a coin? I'm gonna scratch Trevor scratch.
Speaker 2: Oh fuck the Scratchy. Put Jane on. Jane. We want Jane,
Speaker 2: We want Janey.
Speaker 7: Hey Mitch, Jane, Hello.
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas? Season? Is greedy?
Speaker 4: Too happy to your boat?
Speaker 2: Did you have a nice Christmas? Is nice to have
Speaker 2: your son back.
Speaker 7: It is really nice. Ana and I were just talking
Speaker 7: about this is the longest he's been home, probably since
Speaker 7: he left home pretty much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking that he's really cleaning on. Why
Speaker 2: doesn't he want to come back to this? Didn't he
Speaker 2: That's the big question.
Speaker 7: I don't know something to do with the unlimited booze.
Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, the Plato that you're poisoning him.
Speaker 7: How scary is that?
Speaker 2: It's awful. He's a real family man, though I've come
Speaker 2: to learn I really didn't think he was. But he
Speaker 2: loves those little grandchildren and he's really good with the family.
Speaker 4: He's great.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I know, he's Yeah, he's had a really nice time.
Speaker 7: And our friend from Sydney, our family friend, came up
Speaker 7: for the last few days. So yeah, it's been so
Speaker 7: much fun.
Speaker 2: Are you chopping dinner as we speak?
Speaker 7: No, that's Mitchell scratching.
Speaker 2: Scratching, scratching, scratchy. I thought you were chopping up a
Speaker 2: cucumber for dinner. How did he go? What kind of
Speaker 2: scratchy is it?
Speaker 7: It's what is it? Live the life? Oh oh, well,
Speaker 7: you get a thousand dollars a week for five.
Speaker 2: Years, or as Mitchell calls it, one ins to story
Speaker 2: for Tinder.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's it, something like that. So how do he
Speaker 7: do you guys enjoy your Christmas and New Year?
Speaker 2: We had a good break. I've only just gone on
Speaker 2: holidays on the first started I've been working, but yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm back into it now on holidays now for two weeks.
Speaker 2: So I'm good, and Jenna's sort of right in the
Speaker 2: middle of yeah, I'm right in the middle.
Speaker 1: So I just got back from double so I'm in
Speaker 1: Sydney now, so I had a time there, and yeah,
Speaker 1: I go back to work next week.
Speaker 7: Okay, Yeah, I was sort of nice when you're still yeah,
Speaker 7: you're feeling really relaxed and you know you've still it
Speaker 7: a few more days before you've got to start thinking
Speaker 7: about gone back.
Speaker 2: Best feeling it's so good, yeah, but then the dread
Speaker 2: kicks in, like you know on Sunday nights when you
Speaker 2: know you have to work the next day and you
Speaker 2: just can't enjoy the last few hours of Sunday. I
Speaker 2: feel like that, like the last couple of days of leave,
Speaker 2: like it consumes my thoughts.
Speaker 7: You should talk to Ian about We had just had
Speaker 7: that conversation here two nights ago, and so when he
Speaker 7: lived in Sydney, that's exactly how he felt every Sunday, Like,
Speaker 7: get to Sunday lunchtime and dread would just build up
Speaker 7: all afternoon and he does.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's yeah, exactly how I feel.
Speaker 7: And that hasn't happened to him here.
Speaker 2: See, maybe maybe Ian and I kindred spirits. And what
Speaker 2: that is saying is the world wants me to come
Speaker 2: and work on your farm exactly.
Speaker 7: I think it does. That'd be great, that'd suit me fine.
Speaker 7: Then I wouldn't have to.
Speaker 2: Your grocery bill would go through the roof. But it'd
Speaker 2: be good for morale. And I'm sure I could recarry
Speaker 2: the ill sheep, the lame sheep back to good health.
Speaker 7: I'm sure you could. Yeah, do that sometime we actually should.
Speaker 2: Mitch and I have to the toy with the idea
Speaker 2: for for like the last year, to do a show
Speaker 2: from bog and Gate and come up and see the family.
Speaker 2: And is there a spare room in a big bed
Speaker 2: with good strong springs.
Speaker 7: Good strong springs. What are you planning on doing?
Speaker 2: Oh god, no, no, it's just for me, dear God.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, goodness me no no.

Speaker 2: confront him.
Speaker 4: No, who, I'm not doing that?
Speaker 2: Where's Ian? Is he out tending the asparagus crops?
Speaker 4: We don't grow with sparagus. We go wheat and barley,
Speaker 4: and harvest is finished for the e mate.

Speaker 3: Ian quickly before he has to get back to the

Speaker 2: Oh of course, yeah, he really needs to because I
Speaker 2: tell you what, those dury and crops they just dry
Speaker 2: out overnight.
Speaker 5: With that I know.
Speaker 4: And he had no luck last year with the chrysanthonyms.
Speaker 2: No, it was absolutely terrible. And that year that he
Speaker 2: attempted to do Marischino cherry crops was horrific. He made
Speaker 2: no money. He actually did.
Speaker 4: Ask him about them. I'm going to put him on
Speaker 4: now here.

Speaker 6: here and put that on there, shouldn't we?

Speaker 1: True?
Speaker 2: Amen? Are we all feeling good? I mean look for
Speaker 2: those listening now. You've got a great year full of podcasts,
Speaker 2: podcasts and oh my god, I have to say very quickly,
Speaker 2: we went through McDonald's drive through with my dad the
Speaker 2: other night and guess how he pronounced Ali. Oh god,
Speaker 2: I hate to think this is a mispronunciation. On the fly,
Speaker 2: he went, hiler, Yeah, what do you want me one
Speaker 2: of those chicken Ali raps? Oh, one of those chicken
Speaker 2: areol wrapps? Please sweet No, he did not not even close.
Speaker 2: That's the brown skin around the outside of a nipple. No, yes,
Speaker 2: we are.
Speaker 3: We just wanted to pop in for a quick happy
Speaker 3: New Year's episode for you guys. This isn't the start
Speaker 3: of season three. It's it's a little bonus thing on
Speaker 3: the end of season two. But hey, we'll start season
Speaker 3: three eventually one day.
Speaker 2: I feel I really am excited for this year. We
Speaker 2: have a lot planned. There's a lot coming up, and
Speaker 2: actually we want you guys to be more involved than
Speaker 2: you were last year for season one and season two.
Speaker 2: If we want to start doing essentially more, is it
Speaker 2: just use which we've done before. But if you guys
Speaker 2: have one, if you're not part of our secret Facebook
Speaker 2: group Enduring idiots. People are posting their ISA just use
Speaker 2: like almost daily we're getting a lot that are coming through.
Speaker 3: It's quite cute actually, because we often get people like
Speaker 3: last in the past, we've gotten people on the phone,
Speaker 3: but sometimes people find that a bit daunting, so they
Speaker 3: don't want to do it, so they write it in
Speaker 3: the Facebook group. But what we might get people to
Speaker 3: do in stat is send, which obviously feel free to
Speaker 3: keep doing that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want it, don't stop.
Speaker 4: If you want if you want to post your is
Speaker 4: it just me in the Facebook, go right for it.
Speaker 3: Really, but if there's any good ones yet, But if
Speaker 3: there's any really good ones, from now on, we're going
Speaker 3: to start hitting you up and saying, oh, send us
Speaker 3: a voice message. So then we just play the voice
Speaker 3: message on the show and discuss we don't need to
Speaker 3: come on the phone, but hey, we're still open to
Speaker 3: calls as well.
Speaker 1: That's a good idea.
Speaker 2: DM at twenty of us, we have access to a studio,
Speaker 2: will record it in then we'll play it on the podcast.
Speaker 2: But please forgot I mean, I have one come through
Speaker 2: the group chat and someone said is it just me?
Speaker 2: Or are the tops of muffins? The best part of muffins.
Speaker 2: So that's not your thought. That's been everyone thinks that
Speaker 2: that's been around for years. People are plagiarizing, Is it
Speaker 2: just me?
Speaker 3: Well, I don't actually mind the bit on the bottom
Speaker 3: of the muffin that's kind of gone a little bit
Speaker 3: soggy because of the paper, like after you peel it off.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 5: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a bit wrinkly, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well maybe the tops gravitated to the top and
Speaker 2: the bottoms to the bottoms.
Speaker 3: Anyway, what we're saying is we want we want everyone
Speaker 3: listening to be involved with the show even more than
Speaker 3: they already have been in the last season. Yeah, so
Speaker 3: keep you is it just me as coming in the
Speaker 3: group and feel free to flat into our DM through
Speaker 3: the Voith message or we can get you on the phone.
Speaker 2: We're very excited for what's to come this season, and
Speaker 2: we love you, we miss you. We hope you're having
Speaker 2: a safe holidays sort of Christmas period of the New
Speaker 2: Year period, and we have a lot of listeners overseas
Speaker 2: and in Australia. We're very lucky covid is. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's sort of coming back, but it's nowhere near what
Speaker 2: it is in the States and over in Europe. So
Speaker 2: if you're a listener over there, we're thinking of you.
Speaker 2: We love you. Where your masks sanitize, stay safe, and
Speaker 2: there'll be more episodes to get you through isolation very soon.
Speaker 3: I've got so many cooked ideas, you guys have no idea.
