WEBVTT - Goodbye to the Games 0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.560 Tell me we're starting this very special bonus episode of 0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.479 two Good Sports at the end because it's the end 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:13.240 of the games. The closing ceremony has literally just wrapped 0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:14.560 up at the time of record. 0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:17.560 I can't believe, and we will mention it is halftime 0:00:18.000 --> 0:00:19.919 because we do have the Power Games coming up and 0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:22.320 we cannot wait. So we get two weeks to get 0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:24.560 our sleeping schedule back on track. 0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:26.520 Because I am tired. 0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:29.320 Did someone set the alarm on Saturday morning thinking Jess 0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:30.520 Hull was running at four am? 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:30.680 Then? 0:00:30.720 --> 0:00:32.760 And wonder why we're watching the four hundred? Really? 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:33.640 Sure? 0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:36.239 Did I wake up this morning to watch the entirety 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.440 of the closing ceremony because I knew that we were 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:42.480 talking about it. Absolutely, So let's take you through. We're 0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:45.919 literally in pajamas. Are they the athletes pajamas? Yes they are, Yes, 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:47.000 they are, Yes they are. 0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:50.640 We have somehow got our hands on some very comfortable 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:54.319 pjs just in honor of our athletes eventually touching back 0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:54.880 down on us. 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:59.200 By roving enterprises. But let us have a look. What 0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:02.160 did you think the closing ceremony? First and foremost, just 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:06.399 like all of the gold medal predictions, did we or 0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:08.440 did we not tell you was a fun fact that 0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:09.800 Tom Cruise would be involved? 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:13.840 We told you it was a potential fact confirmation fact fact, 0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:17.360 it's a fact fact. And did we say potentially that 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:20.679 he would be repelling down from the stud de France? 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:21.520 Aha? 0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:22.960 Yeah, did that happen? 0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:23.880 Aha? 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:28.160 Yeah, we are once again psy kick geniuses. But before 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:30.360 we get to Tom Cruise, jell me, I have to 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:32.039 admit I was in and out. I was in and 0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:34.720 out of the closing ceremony. I was watching, then I 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.040 wasn't that I was watching again, then I wasn't. So 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:42.400 my notes upon the actual overall event little bit haphazard. 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.679 So let's go for it. Number one note that I've 0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:50.880 written here golden hummingbird. There seemed to be a whole 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.600 plot point that I missed exactly what the context was. 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.720 But there was a golden humming bird making its way 0:01:56.880 --> 0:02:00.360 around a stage, a very very decorative looking step, lots 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.000 of angles and I'm. 0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:04.320 Not sending what was just ended via a cable, and 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.520 I at first thought went, oh my god, it's Tom 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:10.520 Cruise and he's golden, and there's lasers everywhere, and this 0:02:10.560 --> 0:02:12.880 is what happens. But how did Tom get in circus 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.400 in true French style, there was a real apparently it 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:20.160 was extraterrestrial. So we're in this. Firstly, we're not on 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:21.280 the seend. We're not on this. 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:25.160 We're in and so we're watching the exit now. 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:28.760 And for me, the closing ceremony gives a vibe of 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.679 when the year twelves have left school and they've got 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:34.320 one more assembly they have to sit through where the 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:36.640 principal still has to speak and they're kind of in 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.040 party mode and they're like, right, oh, like we're all here, 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.880 we're all mingling. And that is the amazing thing about 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:45.000 the closing ceremony. And it's been since the fifties where 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.280 someone said, you know what, let's have the athletes all 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:47.959 walk in together. 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:49.400 Yeah, and so that happened again. 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:52.520 So you come just arriving as part of your country, 0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:54.400 under your nation's flag, and then they have all the 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:57.280 flag bearers come first, and then the athletes just roll 0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:01.040 on in and you can tell they are ready to party. 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.239 They started their own chance at one point, the unofficial 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:10.320 anthem that is no nonanaa. They all just started launching 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:14.200 into it on their own accord. Yes, listen to Thomas Bark. 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:15.920 Yeah, I got I got a bit confused about that 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:17.440 because that was a part where I had then came 0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:19.480 back in, So I tapped back into the coverage and 0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.280 I thought, hang on, what's happening here, I've missed some 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:24.080 key plot point. Where did that hummingbird goes? Then I 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.880 tapped back out and then tapped back in in time 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.440 to see Phoenix the band perform who everyone would remember 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.079 the days of big day out at any festival that 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.600 you used to have gone to, Zoomers, good luck. You 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.880 don't know who on a Phoenix is as a band. 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:39.760 I don't, No, you do. 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:43.920 Honestly, as they were everywhere, literally said I don't know 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:46.200 who this is. I'm also even worse. 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:47.000 Listomania. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:50.320 You know that Listomania came on and I went, oh, 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:52.920 I know this, and I went my oh my god, 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.000 it's happened. I've become my mother. 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.160 It's happened because. 0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.080 This is clearly a band that is so that everyone 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:02.960 knows who it is. And then the opening bars of 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.240 Listener it happened and I was like, oh, this is 0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:11.000 a begger. I know this one. What upset me? Okay, 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.240 I've just let everyone know that I'm a loser. Point one, 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:18.640 but point two. There had been rumors and the expectation. 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.920 I would go so far as to say, the expectation 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:24.760 that the icon of the Games, Yeah. 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:26.000 Snoop mister Snoop Doggy. 0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:29.280 Would be performing as a stage to France in front 0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:31.560 of all these athletes that have been obsessed with him, 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.560 getting photos with him, trading pins with him throughout the 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:35.520 last two weeks. 0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.000 Yep, we were carving it in stone. That's gonna happen. 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.800 And even the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And if I'm 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:42.839 an if I'm an athlete that's just gone through a Games, 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.960 I'm like, I deserve this. I deserve a front road 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:47.760 where concerts. 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.640 My gift, after the gift that I gave you with 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:52.640 my performance, time for me to be rewarded. 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:59.560 They performed, and thankfully I know who they are. It 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.240 was a re record and they were supposedly in a 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.720 beach in La So here's they were nowhere near the stadium. 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:06.720 I would have rid it. 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:08.719 Okay, So hang on, hang on, hang on, let me 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:11.160 get this right. If we're going through just an order 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.360 of events, We've got the hummingbird. We don't know where 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.039 the hummingbird goes. Then there is Phoenix. They're playing something. 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:18.320 There's very beautiful. 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.400 Oh there is a piano. The floating piano. There was 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.279 a floating piano. Was all very confusing. I was like, 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:24.320 is he playing a little bit beautiful? How was he 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.279 doing that? That was exceptional. Kazinski played a song from 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:30.400 Drive AKA one of my favorite movies with Ryan Goslin 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:34.960 and Gary Mulligan, and I know this song I'm gooding 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:38.760 you were No. Basically it was me being like, he's French. Well, 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.760 oh my god, they're French. Wow, incredible. And then we 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.080 had the moment of the transition, so where we were 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.960 gifting the games to La to see what was happening, 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:49.680 Tom Cruise ab sails his way down to the center 0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.960 of the stadium. Absolutely no, no one steals the Olympic flag. 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:57.359 We said, he's steal something so I mean a micro flag. 0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:57.719 Yeah. 0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:59.479 At some point he gave a lovely hug to the 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:02.360 goats and biles who was holding the flag, and then 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:09.000 he proceeds to drive through a relatively and surprisingly empty Paris. 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:13.120 In a pre recorded section, Sarah on a motorbike with 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.760 the flag before getting it to La and donning or 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.440 what did he do? He essentially he like base jumped 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.279 out of a plane to make the Hollywood. 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:22.440 Sign, which the. 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.919 Ing yes, and I thought that was really cool. So 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.880 they basically had incorporated the two o's on the Hollywood Sign, 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.719 which had become the symbol of the Games. And I 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:34.920 thought that's clever. Yeah, that's holy. 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:35.600 I liked that. 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:36.159 I liked that. 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:39.480 And then we went to Venice Beach, where as Gelmy, 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.000 you were right in pointing out. 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.960 The greatest concert happened ever in front of twenty extras. 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:47.919 To I was like, that's not real people, real people 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:48.520 in the crown. 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.680 Do you know who were real people? Our athletes that 0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:53.880 were made to dress like they were private school kids 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:56.640 on an excursion. And I'd also like to say that 0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:00.679 the female colourway looks like a Medicare car. It's really 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:02.839 hard when you scan a large crowd and all the 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:06.280 Australians aren't together, and they're not in green and gold, 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:12.080 they're in beij Safari style shorts. A belt that no 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.040 one's worn since the early nineties. 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:15.920 Now the belt. Can we talk about the belt? 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:17.720 No? I can't. It does because it does. 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:21.000 It's giving oshkosh b gosh. Now that is our next 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:32.720 reference that something I know certain people I don't know, funny, 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:34.800 got it, but they're hideous. 0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:38.240 But meanwhile, the American athletes come out in ralph Lorin 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.200 looking like sexy astronauts. 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:42.840 Yeah, sexy astronauts. 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.680 They look so cool. We look so lame. 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:47.840 Yeah, the new host of the Games, where they're the 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:51.520 sexy astronauts that are taking us, you know, the advanced 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.920 AP class kids off on an excursion around NASA. 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:58.120 Granted it was still thirty three degrees and people had 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:00.440 fans like they were trying to keep themselves. Was cool, 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:03.920 So I'm guessing that the breatheable linen was probably very 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:05.000 handy for our athletes. 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:10.080 But I just thought, really, really, why why are we 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.320 in these colors? They're not even like. 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:14.800 Not everyone and again showing that I went to a 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.200 private high school, Not everyone tucked their shirts in. There 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:20.480 was no uniformity in how everyone decided to wear this stuff. 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:24.160 It just looked, I mean, so terri closing ceremony flag 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.920 bearers in Kaylee McEwan and Matt Waren, who we've talked 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.080 about a lot during our two Good Sports Green and 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.680 Gold addition, is there a part do you think where 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:35.600 they're like, Oh, I'm in that, I'm in that, I'm wearing. 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:38.640 Kaylee's part of glasses. Can only do so much. They 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:42.520 can only they can only try to elevate so much. 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:45.160 I am I am sad that it wasn't Snoop. I'm 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:46.640 sad that we didn't get Snoop live. 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.480 It would have. It was such a layup. It was 0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:52.800 such a layup to have everyone lose their mind. Yeh, 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:55.880 he had have descended, like if he had have just 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.400 walked on, because he doesn't need to ab sail off anything. 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.560 He just needs to walk out in the middle or 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:03.920 maybe on a dressage horse like this itself. 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:10.000 Let's think about that, right, imagine itself. Imagine Snoop doggubj God. 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:14.640 I was being like Noah Las there couldn't spell being 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.280 a Snoop Dogg just on a dressage horse getting led 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:20.080 by Martha Stewart, his friend. He's great friends obviously, like, 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:22.520 you're right, it does right itself. 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:26.319 But what does bring warmth to your heart is there 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.400 is something amazing about seeing all of these athletes just 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:34.720 clearly release the shackles in the stress of their lives 0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:36.840 leading up to this point and how much they would 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:40.319 have anticipated their performance. There was also a rendition of 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:42.800 we are the champions, so DJ read the room very well, 0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.839 so they're all belting out we are the champions and 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.200 swaying together. And again it's that blur of different countries. 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:52.160 I did. One of my first notes when the athletes 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.640 were entering, was like, gee, this would look prettier at night. 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.440 Because they ended while it was still daytime. 0:09:57.440 --> 0:09:59.800 But then of course it descends in tonight, so you 0:09:59.880 --> 0:10:02.640 do you get Oh I missed the start effect. I 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.640 do feel they also handed out what you get at 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:08.280 a Taylor Swift concert on the wristbands and then light up. 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:11.120 They give you an idea. And the stage itself was 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:13.920 I think designed to look like the moon. There was movement, 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:14.920 there was same. 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:16.800 I got confused about the stage because when I was 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:18.120 looking at it, I was like, hang on a second, 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.080 are they all the continents of the world and they've 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:22.040 done it in like an abstract version, But then when 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.560 they zoomed out, it kind of looked like a dog 0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:24.240 holding a scepter. 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:28.720 Yeah, And there was the return of our mast vigilante. 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:30.120 Oh, so he came. 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.760 He came back because the golden guys come down, so 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.800 he's back flipping around. There's there's a Greek flag, there's 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:39.160 a lot of things going on, But essentially I'd love 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.240 to go to a closing ceremony if I was ever 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.120 going to fake being an athlete, I'd go in there 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:43.600 and be like. 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.199 Whoo, do you know what I think they nailed? They 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.959 absolutely nailed with the closing ceremony is that they farewell 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:52.800 to Paris with an high art interpretation of an ancient 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.560 myth that no one really quite understood. Yes, and don't 0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:56.240 you think that that right? 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:58.520 And then went to a beach in La and went 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:02.120 this this year get may as well have had Katy 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:04.280 Perry come out and seen California girls and just be 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:04.680 done with it. 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.560 And I just say, the cleanest I've ever seen that 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:10.280 Venice beach look the cleanest it has ever looked. 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:15.000 But Snoop and his lack of performance at the State 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:17.000 of France, we say he should have been there because 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:18.800 he's one of the icons of the Games. And George, 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:22.280 we have been so busy talking through all of the 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:26.800 Australian medals because it has haranged, we haven't had a 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:29.480 chance to talk about some of the things that are 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:33.680 really sports news told differently, and one of those has 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.080 to be the Turkish assassin. 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:39.480 Yo, the Turkish shooter came silver. Our matte Yusuf is 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:40.079 what we're calling. 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:41.480 He won. 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.960 He won silver in the shooting, and I mean, this 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:49.160 is Jeremy one of those rare times where I can't 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:50.360 tell you who won the gold. 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:51.160 Oh no, you can't. 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.160 I don't care who won the gold, because you know 0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:56.400 what that silver is gold. He won the games. He 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.560 won the games with his celebration. 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.200 If you haven't seen this in me, where have you been? 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.200 Because it has gone to the point where he has 0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:06.960 infiltrated celebrations of athletes around the world. Nina Kennedy did it, 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.680 our mate Mondo did it. The Jamaican who won the 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.040 discus did it. So you Basically, it's where you look 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:16.480 super relaxed, you put one hand in your pocket and 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:18.920 you make the other one a pistol. Because the guy 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:22.040 had absolutely no equipment and looked so nonchalant on his 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:25.160 way to silver, while everyone else looked like they had 0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:27.760 a half a hardware store on their head trying to 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.120 help them see that's the thing was made at Iconic. 0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:36.760 It looked like, I mean, Google glasses or whatever, whoever's. 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.479 Totally good virtual reality, virtual reality. 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:37.520 Good luck. 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.400 Everyone's using everything to try and live in the matrix 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:42.480 and then old mate just comes out with his reading 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:43.760 glasses and goes bam. 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.480 And he's not someone that looks modelesque. 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:49.560 He looks like someone's dad that came to pick him 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:51.160 up from a party and said where's my daughter? And 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.480 you're like sorry, yousuf. Yeah, like he does. It looks 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:57.040 like someone that you do not want to mess with. 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.599 But I say this because Jordan Clark from Fremantle is 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:02.920 using that celebrations in the AFL. Now when does it 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:03.600 get too old? 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:04.839 When does it get too old? 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:06.040 Oh? 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:07.800 I mean for him never, he's allowed to do it whenever. 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:11.600 It's actually also genuinely his technique for shooting. But when 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:12.160 is it too. 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:15.920 Horror recond it or probably the end of the Power Games. 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:18.360 Yeah, I reckon it's going to have its circuit and 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.400 have its time, but you never know. It could it 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:24.000 could go beyond that. But in terms of icons to 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:25.640 come from the Games, he certainly has to be. 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:27.760 He's up there, he's up there. I think something else 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:31.040 jell me. Because of course the city of Love. That's 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:36.400 another term that we used to describe Paris and another iconic. 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:38.800 I've got that in quotation marks because I'm not sure 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:40.439 how I feel about Luckily, I do know how I 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:43.560 feel about this iconic thing we saw at the Games 0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:46.360 was a lot of proposals, a lot of wedding like 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:50.800 marriage proposals for athletes, and I hate it. I just 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:52.320 hate it. I hate it so much. 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:54.920 You know how I feel about this. It reminds me 0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:56.800 of the time that someone during a Test match at 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:58.960 the Gabba proposed to their partner in the pool and 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:00.520 I just went all. 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.600 Glass, not the pool, in the pool. Cricket Land. 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:05.920 We actually, we actually saw over the weekend a proposal 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:07.600 in the AFL. No for Melbourne. 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.719 No, that's happened, so it is not I have you been. 0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:13.080 I have gone to Broncos games before where they've proposed 0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:17.000 and they've said no, there was no there multiple No. 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:17.680 I'm sorry. 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:25.480 If you're proposing insan like Yoda, it's multiple. But if 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:29.000 you're proposing at a football game or oh you see 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.640 it and like I guess this sort of originated from 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:33.840 the US, where there's sort of the jumbo troll or 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.960 you're up on a big screen and it can be organized. 0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:39.840 But for me, something about the Olympics where it's like 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:43.200 it's a sacred space. I would like to highlight Alice Fino, 0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:47.280 the French steeple chase runner for the three thousand meters. 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:50.280 She then at the end of her race proposed to 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:54.040 her partner and it went viral because the Olympics posted 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.680 it and her quote was, I ran under nine minutes 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:58.880 and nine is my lucky number. We've also been together 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.040 for nine years, so I thought, I do it if 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:01.760 I'm the partner. 0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:03.880 I'm like, wait, so you run ten and you don't 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:04.640 drop a knee. 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.840 How circumstantially in the balance so much our future. 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:11.320 And also everything about the lead up to this month 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.160 hasn't been about me, babe, Like. 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:16.640 What I hate it so much. I remember I saw 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:18.640 it at the badminton. We also saw it after the 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.200 rhythmic gymnastics, where in my mind it's ingrained. 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:22.320 One of them is on a podium. 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:26.640 Oh, an athlete from Italy. She just literally just got 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.280 off the podium and her partner drops to a knee 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.160 and I think she said, yes, look I each to 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.120 their own it could be the happiest moment of their lives. 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:34.600 I if someone. 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:37.960 Did that to me, automatic, No, I am on a podium. 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:40.480 This has nothing to do with you. It is about 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:44.240 my relationship with the sport that I have dedicated my 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.240 life to and that's been in my life for far 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:51.160 longer than you. Get out of my space. This is 0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:54.720 the time for me. I am so mad about it all, 0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:55.080 all of that. 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:56.920 I hate it. I love the idea of you stepping 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.160 back onto the podium to use it as your soapbox. 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:04.160 Just say no, get up and go absolutely not. No. 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.280 And look, I completely agree with you the fact that 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.440 you can't wait a week just to let everything settle 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:13.400 down and to not But we do need to go 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:16.480 through some honorable mentions of some things that we love. 0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:19.240 Talking about the guy that became obsessed with the chocolate 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.720 muffins in the village, to the point where people have 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:23.600 now created hacks of what you can do with the 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:24.760 coals or Woolworth's cake. 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:27.000 I would say that, also, do you think that those 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:29.600 countries just eat a lot healthier than us, because I 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:31.480 feel like our ones at Woolies and Coals are just 0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:34.680 as good. They're just good, They're just as good. But 0:16:34.800 --> 0:16:37.800 this was all because the athletes. There was a lot 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:40.440 many a TikTok about just how shit the food was. 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:44.400 Total and the beds and the experience and it might 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:46.680 be eco, but I'd like some air conditioning please. 0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:49.480 Exactly exactly. So therefore a mate. I think he was 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:54.600 a was he Dutch? He was Christians and that's yes Dutch, yepish. Anyway, 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.040 he was a swimmer and he went viral for doing 0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:58.880 his reviews on food and then he decided that chocol 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:00.480 muffin was the greatest thing that he ever eaten. 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:02.000 They it exploded. 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:05.000 It exploded so much so that the village then had 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:06.880 to release a statement they thought that they were going 0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:09.800 to In the end, I think it was bake one 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:12.920 hundred thousand of these, because two thousand were being consumed today. 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:14.920 At one point it was really hard to even get 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:19.600 them because it doesn't it really really doesn't. So obviously 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:22.919 honorable mention to the icon that was chocolate muffin man. 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:26.520 The horse guy. He's pomerhorse Guy. Our next honorable mention. 0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:29.359 He was part of the USA gymnastics team that was 0:17:29.400 --> 0:17:31.200 such a nerd that I think he can complete the 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:35.320 Rubik's Cuban under twenty seconds, under ten under ten. 0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:36.680 He does it for fun as a way to take 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:37.560 his mind off his nerves. 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:39.920 But the reason why everyone fell in love with him 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.200 was that he wears glasses so it looks like Clark 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.320 Kent and then he just takes them off. And the 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.879 only discipline that he competes in is the pomber horse, 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:51.679 and my god, does he own the pommel horse? And 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:54.600 all of the United States has just gone, who's Clark 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:57.280 Kent that we only pull out for this one discipline 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:00.720 that help helped the medal. It was so funny. 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:03.119 And the reason that he takes his glasses off is 0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:05.880 because he does have a pretty serious vision impediment. He's 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:09.040 cross eyed. It has a fancy scientific name, but essentially 0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:12.280 he's cross eyed. And obviously with the pommel horse fair bitted, 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:15.720
