Speaker 1: Well here we are finally. Good to see you, Gordon,
Speaker 1: I don't believe you. Good to see you, Pavle, good
Speaker 1: to see Are you being sponsored by that that dinosaur
Speaker 1: brand with the walking stick?
Speaker 2: Yes, you wear that a lot. No, I'm not.
Speaker 1: No, just did you just go into that store and
Speaker 1: just buy a whole heap of ship and just go this?
Speaker 2: I'll do it just fits my beautiful body.
Speaker 1: Yeah, your zeke, your your glistening pecks that wouldn't look
Speaker 1: out of place on a yacht in the Mediterranean.
Speaker 2: Guilty is charged speaking? Which I was there recently? Were you? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Colus enough, I was in Nice. It was quite nice.
Speaker 2: And where it is you've been sitting on that ever?
Speaker 2: Come back? You want to?
Speaker 1: You on some sort of boat surround by an electric boat.
Speaker 1: Fat kind of European men with you.
Speaker 2: Know we Australian man. That was other murtoring journealists. No
Speaker 2: Tremor was there. Yeah, that's it. It wouldn't be buoyant
Speaker 2: with him on it. No, just kidding.
Speaker 3: No, we were there for the porchum car launch, which
Speaker 3: we'll talk about soon.
Speaker 2: But we're on an electric boat.
Speaker 3: So this was basically a boat that runs a porschem
Speaker 3: of carn motor and one hundred kilo what our battery?
Speaker 2: Oh that's cool.
Speaker 3: And if you thought that electric cars were not great
Speaker 3: for long distance driving, how about an electric boat which
Speaker 3: we left the harbor with fifty percent literally fanged around
Speaker 3: in this just outside nice for I reckon ten to
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes maximum and it was down to twenty five
Speaker 3: percent and he had to put it in range mode
Speaker 3: to get hited back to the Oh god.
Speaker 1: So it's funny when man at Carr manufacturers do boats.
Speaker 1: Lamborghini's got a boat. Yeah, the Lambo Boat's call though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that is cool. That looks something straight out about man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one of my friends has two of them because
Speaker 3: you can in one frames. But this, this Porsche boat
Speaker 3: is it's more designed as a tender, so a little
Speaker 3: bitch boat for a bigger boat. So I guess that
Speaker 3: kind of makes sense, and it means you can every boat.
Speaker 3: Harbor has three phase charging, so it's easy to charge it.
Speaker 1: But I love how someone thought water and electricity. That's
Speaker 1: a good idea.
Speaker 2: Fucking do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wowe oh you know what, I you know what
Speaker 1: I did have a cheeky crack at that bloody Toyota
Speaker 1: b f z X whatever, the one that sounds like
Speaker 1: Elon Musk's kid, but that one.
Speaker 2: So you've been in this, right, you've been in this car.
Speaker 3: I can't see the speeder. Yeah yeah, yeah, So I
Speaker 3: don't know if that's just a mean thing. I think
Speaker 3: it's a you thing, you and your weird shaped head.
Speaker 1: I actually thought of that when when I sat in there,
Speaker 1: I'm like, what's Paul talking about? Like the head's up
Speaker 1: display looks all right. I think it sort of depends
Speaker 1: on how you maneuver it. But it was such a
Speaker 1: it's a confusing car that it's really confusing because it's
Speaker 1: what it's Toyota's first EV and it's actually the one
Speaker 1: I was in was top spec, well appointed, looks really
Speaker 1: quite plush in the outside. I mean it's like Toyota
Speaker 1: every now and then do this gimmecky sort of car design.
Speaker 2: It's eighty thousand dollars. That's my only issue with it.
Speaker 1: If it was a cheap, cheerful forty to fifty k,
Speaker 1: you kind of go, eh.
Speaker 2: Eighty k. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you where it makes sense. It makes sense
Speaker 3: in the entry level front will drive version. And the
Speaker 3: reason that car I think, Like, to me, I don't
Speaker 3: think it's an amazing ev but the market for them
Speaker 3: is Toyota customers. So it's someone who drives a camera
Speaker 3: that wants an electric car, and it is literally just
Speaker 3: an electric camera.
Speaker 2: You get into it and it's Toyota.
Speaker 3: There's buttons for everything, it does all the Toyota stuff
Speaker 3: that you expect it to do. It's just very safe,
Speaker 3: conservative Toyota. So to me it could actually do. Okay,
Speaker 3: I personally wouldn't buy one. I don't think it has
Speaker 3: the tech that I want out of it. I can't
Speaker 3: see the speedo, which kind of important. But yeah, I
Speaker 3: think that.
Speaker 2: I'll be interested to see how it goes for them. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Is it the same platform as that Subaru that they're
Speaker 2: bringing out, Yes, the yeah Solterra yep.
Speaker 1: I think the only difference that that's going to have
Speaker 1: is they'll rip out any interior that looks remotely interesting
Speaker 1: and just dumb it down, because the sol Terra interior
Speaker 1: shots were pretty plain. But yeah, look, I thought it
Speaker 1: was a good car.
Speaker 2: Like it drives. I think it drives great.
Speaker 1: I think it looks interesting, but the price tag blows
Speaker 1: my mind, Like, especially in that market, I mean.
Speaker 2: Sure, what are you gonna buy? You're gonna buy.
Speaker 1: You're spending eighty thousand dollars on something that you think
Speaker 1: is quality, you know what I mean, it's a brand name.
Speaker 3: Here's the biggest issue for them. Just when was it
Speaker 3: three or four days ago? Tesla dropped their prices massively.
Speaker 3: So let me quickly run through this because this is
Speaker 3: going to be Toyota's biggest headache because.
Speaker 2: Because now let me open this up. He's opening up
Speaker 2: his ass. Guys, he's not talking about anything here. We
Speaker 2: want said, just get rid of your shit all over
Speaker 2: a car brand. Here we go, Okay, here we go. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So Tesla has just dropped their prices again. And to
Speaker 3: put it into context.
Speaker 2: Model three now starts at fifty eight thousand, nine hundred dollars,
Speaker 2: which is the cheapest it's ever been.
Speaker 3: Cheapest Tesla Model Y sixty nine hundred, which again is
Speaker 3: the cheapest it's ever been for the price of or
Speaker 3: similar price to that top spec BZ four X. You're
Speaker 3: getting significantly more Tesla and you can even stretch to
Speaker 3: a model wide performance for eighty two nine hundred. So
Speaker 3: this is a huge price reduction. So if you compare
Speaker 3: it to the peak, So it peaked to just after
Speaker 3: Model Y came out at seventy two three hundred start price.
Speaker 3: It's now sixty nine hundred, so twelve thousand dollars cheaper.
Speaker 3: So Tesla is definitely trying to compete with its other
Speaker 3: Chinese manufactured siblings, and the I guess the side effects
Speaker 3: of that are going to be anyone that has gone
Speaker 3: and bought any of these other evs that are now
Speaker 3: significantly more expensive than the Tesla. The other thing that
Speaker 3: that Tesla hasn't really thought maybe they have thought about
Speaker 3: and they just don't care, is people that are trying
Speaker 3: to now.
Speaker 2: Sell these because.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I was going to ask with the Toyota,
Speaker 1: because the depreciation on evs is terrible, but a Toyota
Speaker 1: being a Toyota, they kind of hold their value, okay.
Speaker 3: And Toyota's selling a lot of these on leases. They're
Speaker 3: not really trying to push a driveway price. They're trying
Speaker 3: to push a lease that means they just take it
Speaker 3: back at the end of it and then who knows
Speaker 3: what they're going to do with it then. But the
Speaker 3: interesting thing here is if you took out a novated
Speaker 3: lease with a model y at its peak, your car
Speaker 3: on a two year ovated lease is going to be
Speaker 3: coming up for it's residual and balloon that for me
Speaker 3: is forty three thousand dollars. So at the moment, if
Speaker 3: your balloon is forty three thousand dollars and a brand
Speaker 3: new one is sixty thousand dollars, you're going to be
Speaker 3: on the second hand market at about between forty and
Speaker 3: fifty grand. I just think, I don't know that a
Speaker 3: lot of people are going to be buying these secondhand,
Speaker 3: and that is going to push the price of them
Speaker 3: down even more as people try and panic sell because
Speaker 3: they want to meet their balloon payment. And if you
Speaker 3: have a look at a lot of the instant offer
Speaker 3: people on the internet. So at car Expert, we've got
Speaker 3: an instant offer thing. Car Sales has an instant off
Speaker 3: a thing. They're all offering high thirties for the model.
Speaker 3: Why at the moment, wow, I just speak, it is
Speaker 3: going to be grim. And that's why people who ran
Speaker 3: into this novated least thing thinking oh well, I'll save
Speaker 3: money on my tax and all this sort of stuff,
Speaker 3: they're going to get the shock of their life when
Speaker 3: it comes to the balloon payment and not being able
Speaker 3: to sell the car for anywhere near the balloon payment
Speaker 3: and then being under So if that is you, email
Speaker 3: us contact at the Dryshow dot com today. What do
Speaker 3: you think about Tesla taking you know, twelve grand off
Speaker 3: the price of this thing that you bought that hasn't
Speaker 3: changed at all.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Tesla, what I saw drive around Sydney yesterday.
Speaker 1: They decided to sneak in a cyber truck.
Speaker 3: It's a little bit cheeky and you know what they did,
Speaker 3: just not not trying to get too much attention.
Speaker 2: They drove it to Bondai and parked a.
Speaker 1: Bit park it parked at a Bondai and they did
Speaker 1: park it at the shopping mall in Double Bay.
Speaker 2: Now that whole area is quite affluent, and it looked
Speaker 2: so out of it.
Speaker 1: Just there's something about the cyber truck, maybe because they
Speaker 1: haven't been here, but you know what it is, It
Speaker 1: looks so out of place in Australian roads.
Speaker 2: It is it is. This is going to sound creepy,
Speaker 2: but it is the guy that goes to the children's
Speaker 2: playground in a trench coat. It's you. It has nothing
Speaker 2: on underneath them open to his trench car. It's the
Speaker 2: shock that is the most amazing compots.
Speaker 1: You know what, This car is like a pedophile, That's
Speaker 1: what it's like. This car's like a guy who owns
Speaker 1: a trampoline but doesn't have kids, but.
Speaker 2: It's one of those people who just wants shock factor. Right.
Speaker 3: That is what the car is about, and that is
Speaker 3: why it will be short lived in terms of its popularity,
Speaker 3: because if you're the first to have one, everyone's like, oh, well,
Speaker 3: look at this thing.
Speaker 2: But I think it will end up being like the
Speaker 2: what was the as Tech Pontiac Oh yeah, yeah, Pontiac Aztek,
Speaker 2: the car out of Breaking Bad.
Speaker 3: It just looks like that, which at the time would
Speaker 3: have been like, oh wow, I've got a Pontiac as tick.
Speaker 3: It's look at me now. You look at and you're like, oh,
Speaker 3: it's a Pontiac as Tech. I think that's what the
Speaker 3: cyber truck is going to end up being, because I
Speaker 3: think it looks cool now and cool in the sense
Speaker 3: that it's different to everything else. I can't see it
Speaker 3: being a longer term thing. It's in Australia, where people
Speaker 3: were asking why is it in Australia, Right, It's probably
Speaker 3: in Australia to test software and hardware. So they actually
Speaker 3: brought out a model ess plaid played a little while back,
Speaker 3: which we don't get here and we won't be getting here,
Speaker 3: and they brought that out to do some testing.
Speaker 2: Typically, if they're testing.
Speaker 3: New cameras, for example, they want to check that it
Speaker 3: works with our road signs, and they might roll those
Speaker 3: cameras out into the Model three and the Model Y,
Speaker 3: which we do get in Australia.
Speaker 2: Interesting though, that they did that with a cyber truck.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, look at you get two things out of it. One,
Speaker 3: you get to drive up interest. Tesla sales are declining
Speaker 3: that they're having big issues as a company in terms
Speaker 3: of hitting targets and selling cars. Second part is you know,
Speaker 3: if you bring it around here, everyone wants to go
Speaker 3: get a photo with it. And next to it, conveniently
Speaker 3: is a Model three and a Model Y. So I
Speaker 3: think they'll end up probably doing a bit of a
Speaker 3: road show tour around the country with it just to
Speaker 3: get that interest up.
Speaker 2: But who does.
Speaker 1: There is a picture of it parked at Double Bay.
Speaker 1: Oh god, just in my cyber truck trying to fight
Speaker 1: a car park because I'm late for plarties.
Speaker 2: Oh, I've got to meet up for cappuccinos with the girls.
Speaker 2: Lander two. That is as a fat little bagger, isn't that. Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean, look at it's right up against the curb
Speaker 3: and it's sticking sticking out, so it's a big old thing.
Speaker 2: Can't see it coming here? I just can't. Well, it
Speaker 2: won't be coming here.
Speaker 3: And I'll explain why they build it only in Texas
Speaker 3: and currently they have a huge order bank in the
Speaker 3: States for it. Their production is incredibly low like that.
Speaker 3: They haven't figured out how to actually mass produce it yet,
Speaker 3: so they're going to be figuring out the States for
Speaker 3: quite some time before they even look at anything.
Speaker 2: In right hand drive. What is that? That's a hememache
Speaker 2: on the back of a I know why you're sitting
Speaker 2: at a patrol Yeah, this and via patrol Warrior. That's
Speaker 2: just because you can want to know anyway. Anyway, the
Speaker 2: key ut right? What is it called the Tasman or
Speaker 2: some Tasman?
Speaker 1: So the ad dropped, which we forgot to talk about,
Speaker 1: but I'll bring it up now. I think everyone I
Speaker 1: think it's some bloody clever advertising. I think it's it's
Speaker 1: fantastics x Yeah, it's really well done. The problem is,
Speaker 1: I'm not the sportiest bloke in the world.
Speaker 2: I didn't know who the fucking of them were. Ash Barji, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like ash Barti. Is she the one that sailed
Speaker 2: solo around the world? Which run?
Speaker 1: She?
Speaker 2: It wasn't that the guy in anyway.
Speaker 3: So apparently they filmed that in Bondai at a pub. Yeah,
Speaker 3: over a couple of days.
Speaker 2: The Bondo pub. Yeah, it was filmed in Bondo Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 3: But I was actually asking someone about this. I thought,
Speaker 3: this is an expensive ad. If you have to get
Speaker 3: that many celebrities.
Speaker 2: Please wend All Sailor's in it. That's his first gig
Speaker 2: in quite sometimes who that is? But I was at
Speaker 2: the Sailor the one that went around Yeah probably.
Speaker 3: So yeah, And apparently what happened was they got a
Speaker 3: couple of big names on board, and when the people
Speaker 3: they approached her that the big names were on board,
Speaker 3: they wanted to be involved as well, So it ended
Speaker 3: up becoming a fomo thing. Yeah, they weren't all there
Speaker 3: at the same time, but they look like they were.
Speaker 3: So it's a clever campaign because this is a big
Speaker 3: deal for Kea and if you look at Australia for
Speaker 3: KEA where home of the Australian Open. Obviously they're a
Speaker 3: global sort of partner of that event, so Keia Global
Speaker 3: spends a lot of money here, so that means that
Speaker 3: KEA Australia benefits from the advertising, the cars that they
Speaker 3: have to buy to run the event, et cetera. And
Speaker 3: the ute is going to be we will probably be
Speaker 3: the primary market for that vehicle unless it goes to
Speaker 3: the States as well, and they're putting a lot of
Speaker 3: effort into right and handling tuning here. Australia has had
Speaker 3: a lot of involvement in the development work for that car.
Speaker 3: What we do know and we've just put a video
Speaker 3: up on car Expit about this, we do know that
Speaker 3: it won't have V six so it'll only be four cylinder.
Speaker 3: There is an electric ute coming, but it may not
Speaker 3: be coming to Australia, so that's due to be launched
Speaker 3: next year.
Speaker 2: Four cylinder. Could this be a hybrid, No, just diesel,
Speaker 2: straight diesel.
Speaker 3: Currently their only four cylinder diesel is like four hundred
Speaker 3: and forty ut meters, so it is pretty piss week.
Speaker 3: If they do want it to compete, it'll need to
Speaker 3: be the or seventy to match Triton or five hundred
Speaker 3: to match Ranger and high Lux, so that they're the
Speaker 3: things that they have.
Speaker 2: To focus on. The design. I don't know if you've
Speaker 2: seen it, but it's interesting looking. I don't hate it, Okay,
Speaker 2: I don't hate it. I think it looks all right.
Speaker 2: It looks good.
Speaker 3: So we had our guy do some sort of renders
Speaker 3: based on all of the spy photos we've had so far,
Speaker 3: and this is what he's come up with.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's what do you think? It's just showed me
Speaker 2: some Butcher's paper and crayon drawing geese. Your guy must
Speaker 2: be really good. I like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it looks good. The headlights yeah, vertical, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that. I think they're a little bit more
Speaker 1: square on the real thing, aren't they.
Speaker 2: No, this is this is the okay, look like right? Well, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think it looks good. I think it looks good. Interesting. Well.
Speaker 1: Most of the time, I'll shit on a car, literally
Speaker 1: I did. I did want on yours on downstairs. Unfortunately
Speaker 1: it wasn't actually yours tops car.
Speaker 2: The key I'm excited for it. I'm excited. You know
Speaker 2: what the care you could even be my new car.
Speaker 2: Oh watch out you, you tray to you.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm getting a bit itchy. I'm getting a bit itchy.
Speaker 1: I'm getting some new car fields.
Speaker 2: I'm currently kind of going, I think of only.
Speaker 1: I mean, I've really taken the out back to the
Speaker 1: art back and beyond.
Speaker 2: I mean it's dark. You would if it wouldn't run
Speaker 2: out of fuel.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to the edge of s We're still bloody,
Speaker 1: averaging twelve twelve leaders per one hundred k's something weird.
Speaker 2: Do you know what else I noticed about it too?
Speaker 1: I don't think it's got front sensors, like parking senses doesn't.
Speaker 3: I don't think it has risk senses either. Nah, it's
Speaker 3: got a camera, yeah, and that's about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The other day I was like, this car doesn't
Speaker 2: have front parkers. That's a screaming noise. Yeah, Oh that's
Speaker 2: my key. What's her a handbag on the bottom. Oh
Speaker 2: that's my wife. What's going on? Oh? Well, their fault,
Speaker 2: not mine.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No. The other day I was like, I'm going to
Speaker 2: test this. This definitely doesn't have senses. And we're at
Speaker 2: our house.
Speaker 1: We've got one of those those gates, you know, that
Speaker 1: electronically open with the driveway, and so I'm just kind
Speaker 1: of like, before I do this, I'm just going to
Speaker 1: give it a little bit of a Yeah. It definitely
Speaker 1: doesn't give it a nudge. Yeah, yeah, definitely doesn't have
Speaker 1: fucking senses.
Speaker 2: What I've learned from this is not to buy a
Speaker 2: car from Gordy. Yes, it's going to be on the
Speaker 2: second hand market very soon.
Speaker 1: I'll let you know, to be honest with you, I'll
Speaker 1: probably still keep it because I think I stand by
Speaker 1: It still drives great, just choose up the fuel a
Speaker 1: little bit.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm starting to shop around, start to shop around.
Speaker 1: Maybe I could be looking at one of the cars
Speaker 1: that we're sort of going to be talking about later on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, go on. Oh, We'll just going to give you
Speaker 2: a little bit of a sneak. Yeah, okay. Well I
Speaker 2: drove the BYD Seal Performance oh wow, and I freaking
Speaker 2: loved it. Interesting, I did. I really, I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: The problem, which we'll get into, but the problem with
Speaker 1: a lot of these cheap performance evs, and I mean
Speaker 1: seventy thousand dollars is not you know, but it's not
Speaker 1: exactly MGX power.
Speaker 2: Cheap which is like what fifty.
Speaker 1: They tend to drive fast, obviously in a straight line,
Speaker 1: and then the handling on them is just generally rubbish.
Speaker 1: This handles brilliantly. So well, it's such a smooth car.
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's got the speed when you need it too.
Speaker 1: It's tucked away there, so we'll talk about it later.
Speaker 2: But get you some tissue paper for that gushing, just
Speaker 2: to clean it up. What do you need? That's some
Speaker 2: tissues for your gushing?
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. She just took that. Someone's been on Born
Speaker 1: Harbor bit too much. God, something's front of mind. Hey,
Speaker 1: some cars that have been dropping lately, the new lambou
Speaker 1: Urus was it the s Yeah, top of my head?
Speaker 2: V eight hybrid?
Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting, I'm plugging hybrid now listen. Can we just
Speaker 1: take one second before anything else? Is it just me
Speaker 1: or a plug in? Hybrids just a bit shit in
Speaker 1: terms of just a pain.
Speaker 2: In the ass.
Speaker 3: So yes, yeah, well, especially when they're half a million
Speaker 3: dollars and you're just adding weight to this thing. Know,
Speaker 3: the vight engine is augmented by an electric motor, so
Speaker 3: it adds one hundred and forty kilo. What's a power
Speaker 3: four hundred and eighty new meters of talk. The problem
Speaker 3: is that it's integrated into the eight speed auto, and
Speaker 3: every car I've driven now that has a plug in
Speaker 3: hybrid integrated into an eight speed automatic transmission hasn't been
Speaker 3: great because unlike a Toyota hybrid, for example, where you
Speaker 3: have a CVET or you know, it's not actually a CVT,
Speaker 3: but something that's designed like a CVET, you're getting instant
Speaker 3: talk because you're not waiting for this thing to figure
Speaker 3: out which gear it needs to be in. When it's
Speaker 3: integrated with the transmission, the electric motor doesn't do anything
Speaker 3: until the transmission is in gear effectively, so when you
Speaker 3: go to step on the throttle, there's still momentary ladag.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I don't know. To me, yeah, it seems fine.
Speaker 3: But they tend to and obviously haven't driven it, but
Speaker 3: they tend to work better once you actually have an
Speaker 3: electric motor that can operate independently of everything so that
Speaker 3: you can actually get that initial surge of talk, and
Speaker 3: then once the engine's ready to get then sort of
Speaker 3: picks up the balance.
Speaker 1: It just feels like it like to fill something up
Speaker 1: with petrol and to plug it in as well.
Speaker 2: Just that alone on any car I just find just pointless.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I think this will end up feeling a
Speaker 3: bit like the BMWXM and that is just not a
Speaker 3: great car.
Speaker 2: Like it's fast, yes, but it's just a bit complicated
Speaker 2: and annoying to drive. So I understand why they're doing this.
Speaker 3: Obviously the Volkswagen Group needs to move towards electrification. But
Speaker 3: to me, I would just be buying a regular Urus.
Speaker 3: And you know what, we actually have just filmed a
Speaker 3: new drag racing series. We're filmed in regional Wa and
Speaker 3: one of the cars we used was Anenorus perform Ante
Speaker 3: that you can only buy if you've bought the CNSA
Speaker 3: SCV twelve. So that is all no plug in hybrid
Speaker 3: stuff in that, and it is so much fun to drive,
Speaker 3: so you don't need the plug in hybrid.
Speaker 2: You know. It's yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1: Know what else has dropped? Oh haal have been dropping
Speaker 1: a few little bits and pieces. I know we've got
Speaker 1: quite a few. Haveal fans? Have we have apparently who
Speaker 1: listens to this podcast apparently.
Speaker 3: Have a look at them, then huh, have a look
Speaker 3: at them, then have a look at what the fans
Speaker 3: look at them? Then Okay, the cars, I'll make the
Speaker 3: jacks bro.
Speaker 2: What about that they've called it the havel wrapped there
Speaker 2: you go. We should swap your wraptor out for a
Speaker 2: havel rap.
Speaker 1: I might have to one hundred and forty five kilometers
Speaker 1: of electric range. Speaking of feathers, super cute not on
Speaker 1: a half from Fee fee feather Neck. I don't know
Speaker 1: that's a radio show here in Melbourne. This is me
Speaker 1: just me doing the old play on words.
Speaker 2: And why Melbourne? Is that because you're national?
Speaker 3: Now national guys, Brizzy, Sydney.
Speaker 2: And min Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Actually, you know what I noticed with our merch
Speaker 1: drop that I decided to tease the people with we.
Speaker 2: Went out of extra large very quick. Did Donna just
Speaker 2: take them?
Speaker 1: Donna took four and just sewed him into a bed sheets? Yes,
Speaker 1: you don't want to know about Donna's bed sheets. We
Speaker 1: should give her a call later. You should check in
Speaker 1: with Donna latter.
Speaker 2: I think that's a good idea. I think that's a
Speaker 2: great idea. We'll check in with Donal later. What else?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I wanted to get your thoughts on the
Speaker 1: Porsche McCarn ev because I remember seeing the press photos
Speaker 1: when they dropped this. Press photos are an interesting I'd
Speaker 1: love to talk to somebody who does press photos for
Speaker 1: these car companies one day, because I feel like they
Speaker 1: can make or break something like in terms of a
Speaker 1: McCann or there's been so many cars where the BMWM two.
Speaker 1: When I saw pictures of that, the press photos of that,
Speaker 1: I thought it was the most hideous looking thing ever.
Speaker 1: But then when you get in it and you see it,
Speaker 1: and you know, when you actually see it in the flesh,
Speaker 1: it looks so much better, like when you're standing in
Speaker 1: front of it. But yeah, the mccarne v. I mean,
Speaker 1: technically there shouldn't be too much difference styling wise, but
Speaker 1: I thought it looked a little bit boring the way
Speaker 1: Porsche announced this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look so I have the chance to drive it
Speaker 3: in in France at the launch and okay, so let's
Speaker 3: start with the styling. So it definitely looks good in person.
Speaker 3: That's great, except if you get the taxi yellow color
Speaker 3: they have, which looked pretty awful. The thing is with
Speaker 3: this McCann, the McCann is fifty percent of Porsche's volume.
Speaker 2: It saved Porsche, so they're.
Speaker 3: Going to go and take the car that saved them
Speaker 3: and the car that accounts for half of their sales,
Speaker 3: and they're killing the internal combustion version. They've increased the
Speaker 3: price significantly, so it now starts at one hundred and
Speaker 3: thirty three plus on roads, and that is before you
Speaker 3: even add one option to it. Started it under one
Speaker 3: hundred Previously, the McCann Turbo, which was I think about
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty grand, is now one hundred and
Speaker 3: ninety plus on roads.
Speaker 2: So it is a huge step up.
Speaker 3: And to me, I think that is their first mistake,
Speaker 3: because you used to have someone who could stretch their
Speaker 3: budget from let's say Q five to get a McCarn. Yes,
Speaker 3: they get a Porsche, they get the whole experience.
Speaker 2: Everything's great.
Speaker 3: But now that person isn't just going to go, oh, well,
Speaker 3: I'll just spend another forty grand.
Speaker 2: I mean, I just don't.
Speaker 3: I don't see how they didn't get that sort of
Speaker 3: logic step. They will announce more so they're only launching
Speaker 3: with McCarn four and McCarn Turbo will do an entry
Speaker 3: level version, but that will probably still be well over
Speaker 3: one hundred grand. In terms of the design itself. I
Speaker 3: thought they were actually doing two versions this coupe sort
Speaker 3: of looking one and then a standard one. This is
Speaker 3: the only body style, so they're not actually doing a
Speaker 3: sort of standard looking one in terms of the way
Speaker 3: that it drives. So starting off with the interior, it
Speaker 3: is beautiful. It looks fantastic. This will be built in Germany,
Speaker 3: so it's not like the kN that I drive last
Speaker 3: which was where was that built in Slovenia. That thing
Speaker 3: was a bit of a bit of a shit beriaky doors. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it really wasn't very good. So this will be German built.
Speaker 3: That will present volume issues because Germany is doing mccarne
Speaker 3: v for the world, so it means that immediately I
Speaker 3: can see this becoming a volume problem for Australia, which
Speaker 3: is a smaller market.
Speaker 2: So the interior is nice.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of customization options, so there's a lot
Speaker 3: of stuff that you can pay to customize to make
Speaker 3: it your own. So they really want to make this
Speaker 3: quite a style statement.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen you can definitely do the passenger side
Speaker 1: display yep display, thing's pretty cool. A lot of money
Speaker 1: for a cool little feature.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've replaced the operating system with Android Automotive OS,
Speaker 3: so it gives them far better building blocks to work off.
Speaker 3: So the skin looks similar to other Porsch products, but
Speaker 3: beneath the skin it is a completely different operating system
Speaker 3: to the last generation mccaun. In terms of the way
Speaker 3: that it drives, the McCann turbo is now two point
Speaker 3: four tons. That's heavy, so it is three hundred kilos
Speaker 3: heavier than a V eight kN It is bloody enormous.
Speaker 1: It handles beautifully, yeah, does it Does it feel rigid
Speaker 1: or does.
Speaker 2: It feel like a Porsche?
Speaker 3: Feels good, so, steering feel is fantastic, The breaks feel good.
Speaker 3: It does the standard Porsche YV thing with a lot
Speaker 3: of region handles well. The problem is though, that we
Speaker 3: drive it on just sort of mountain roads. It's not
Speaker 3: really the perfect place to be testing this car. The
Speaker 3: real test will be when we get it back here
Speaker 3: in Australia and we take it for a bit of
Speaker 3: a more spirited drive and see what it's like on
Speaker 3: city streets. You can get up to twenty two inches.
Speaker 3: In terms of the wheels, air suspension is available on
Speaker 3: the four standard on the turbo rewill steering.
Speaker 2: I wasn't a huge fan of that standard.
Speaker 3: On the turbo, it sort of just feels a bit
Speaker 3: funny when you're sort of going a little bit quicker
Speaker 3: with it. It is monumentally quick. It's like three point
Speaker 3: three seconds to one hundred or something like that. With
Speaker 3: the McCann turbo as I think it's over a thousand
Speaker 3: meters of talk like it is. It is an absolute
Speaker 3: monster of a thing. So they've got the fundamentals right there.
Speaker 3: But to me, where this will fall apart is on price,
Speaker 3: because I just don't think a consumer that was spending
Speaker 3: that much on a mccahn is really going to run
Speaker 3: and dive into this, and perhaps that's what they're expecting,
Speaker 3: and which is why they've increased the price, knowing they'll
Speaker 3: get less volume.
Speaker 1: Well, they're not going to be able to meet the
Speaker 1: demand anyway. Really, I'm predicting they won't be able to
Speaker 1: meet the demand anyway. Well, I'll tell you why I
Speaker 1: reckon that. I don't know that there is that much demand.
Speaker 1: So the reason why I say that, whenever we.
Speaker 3: Publish a review, I'll know pretty quickly how popular it is,
Speaker 3: and typically a car that sells well will get a
Speaker 3: lot of views quickly. You could not pay people to
Speaker 3: watch our McCann review and then I thought, that's really weird.
Speaker 3: I then had to look globally at all the McCann
Speaker 3: EV reviews, and some of them had barely any views.
Speaker 3: Some of the biggest channels in the world had barely
Speaker 3: any views. We saw the same thing with the only
Speaker 3: five M which we'll talk about soon. So that tells
Speaker 3: me that perhaps the demand they think is there isn't
Speaker 3: actually there. So the time will come at the end
Speaker 3: of the year when the cars are here, we'll see
Speaker 3: how many they sell and how it sells compared to
Speaker 3: the previous generation.
Speaker 2: But yeah, it'll be interesting. If you are wanting a McCann.
Speaker 3: That isn't the EV you have until the end of
Speaker 3: May to order it because that's when they're closing their
Speaker 3: order books for custom build vehicles. So if you do
Speaker 3: want that, you need to get in before then otherwise
Speaker 3: it's done.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know performance evs. Maybe people are just
Speaker 1: not ready for them yet. Look at the resale value
Speaker 1: of the time.
Speaker 2: Can't talk about a bargain, absolutely, ty can't.
Speaker 3: So I think that if that's your if that's what's
Speaker 3: coming for you by buying one of these, maybe you
Speaker 3: don't care.
Speaker 2: Maybe we don't care about resell.
Speaker 3: But to me, if I was buying a regular Portra
Speaker 3: in the resol was typically pretty good, and now the
Speaker 3: evs aren't very good.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, did you see this, the Alpha Romeo Milano.
Speaker 2: Ugly little turd box. It's what I think of that.
Speaker 1: Okay, moving on to a re vibe about it. Did
Speaker 1: you see that to change the name? Oh, because it
Speaker 1: was called junior or something.
Speaker 3: No, it is now junior because it's like champagne. You
Speaker 3: can't call a bubbly wine champagne unless it is from
Speaker 3: Champagne in France. Same with this, the Italian government, not
Speaker 3: from Milano. Tallian said, well, because this is made somewhere else.
Speaker 3: I don't know where it's made, you can't call it
Speaker 3: the you can't call it the Milano. So it's now
Speaker 3: called the Junior or whatever it is called the Manaro Manara.
Speaker 2: It's not from Manaro made. You can't fucking naman Manaro.
Speaker 2: Shut up, Donna, we'll talk to you later. Come on, darling,
Speaker 2: Alfa Romeo Junior. It's just such a stupid name. Stupid.
Speaker 2: Well that suits because I think it looks stupid. But
Speaker 2: they could have given it anything. They could have told anything.
Speaker 1: Look, I think Alpha makes great cars are great looking cars,
Speaker 1: especially the interiors.
Speaker 2: But have you seen this? This is yeah, I'm looking
Speaker 2: at it right now. Well, well let us know contact
Speaker 2: at the Drivers Show dot com today you I.
Speaker 1: Think I'm in Do you know what I think? I'm
Speaker 1: easily just impressed today with everything. Usually i'm quite critical. Ah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: Have a look at this thing.
Speaker 1: There's bits about it. I don't like that. Those lights
Speaker 1: look a bit look a bit reno. Oh, I tell
Speaker 1: you what looks great? Like really great. The fore Runner
Speaker 1: is coming back.
Speaker 2: Yes, now that I'm excited about. Yes, that is really cool.
Speaker 1: It's really cool and it looks good too. I think
Speaker 1: we'll get the typical the burksuits of Pokey. I saw
Speaker 1: some videos coming to Australia. Oh shit, well it hasn't
Speaker 1: been announced for Australia.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's that's a real disappointment.
Speaker 1: They, I mean, were what was that That was a
Speaker 1: sort of a mid nineties car, a real kind of
Speaker 1: coasty sort of surfers coupled.
Speaker 2: I think they were called like a Toyota surf they and.
Speaker 3: I think they were called a fore Runner as well. Well,
Speaker 3: that was a variant or something like that. It was
Speaker 3: like a tougher version of the Prato effectively, And yeah,
Speaker 3: I think I think they look great.
Speaker 2: Yep, I think they look fantastic.
Speaker 3: I think what they've what Toyota has been able to
Speaker 3: achieve with this TNGA platform that this is built off,
Speaker 3: is so cool. They've done such a good job with
Speaker 3: just all these different variants and just giving them a
Speaker 3: really unique vibe. I love the Toyota lettering on the dashboard.
Speaker 3: They've got RB accessories. Yeah, blood bloody cool, I reckon.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, the front looks the front looks tough
Speaker 1: and now just looks like a proper kind of go
Speaker 1: anywhere little machine.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I really do hope they bring that that see to me,
Speaker 1: that makes more sense like that bringing that out rather
Speaker 1: than their the ev that they're just planted.
Speaker 2: But we will see, we will see.
Speaker 1: Hey, okay, so let's talk about the Naive.
Speaker 2: So what a great car.
Speaker 3: Yes, So I had the chance to drive it at
Speaker 3: Eastern Creek on the track.
Speaker 2: It was incredible fun.
Speaker 3: And just recently I mentioned this before, we've we've launched
Speaker 3: a new drag racing series and we hired an airport
Speaker 3: in regional Western Australia and shout out to the locals
Speaker 3: in Wildcatchum is.
Speaker 2: That the is that the traditional name? I don't think so,
Speaker 2: okay what you mean, but.
Speaker 3: That's how you wouldn't know what But anyway, so yeah,
Speaker 3: we hired an airport there, had all of this emergency
Speaker 3: services and stuff, and then borrowed a stack of cool
Speaker 3: cars from from a friend of ours to do drag
Speaker 3: racing in. And this ironic five N is a beast
Speaker 3: like we genuinely when we started this series, we thought,
Speaker 3: you know, look, it's probably not going to win, but
Speaker 3: it'll look cool when it goes up against some of
Speaker 3: these cars.
Speaker 2: And then when it started.
Speaker 3: Beating most of these cars, I was like, oh, this is.
Speaker 2: Going to look fake, This is gonna look staged like it.
Speaker 3: Literally bett cars are worth over a million dollars across
Speaker 3: the quarter mile, So.
Speaker 2: And what is that on road? That's like one hundred
Speaker 2: and ten thousand dollars plus plus on roads. Yeah, okay, so.
Speaker 1: It's a let's call it a one hundred and fifteen.
Speaker 2: It's one hundred and ten thousand dollars worth of supercar.
Speaker 3: And yeah, and it's not even just that it goes
Speaker 3: fast in a straight line. When we did our full
Speaker 3: review of this at Lang Lang Lang. It's actually just
Speaker 3: some of the features that it has so you can
Speaker 3: control so much in so you've got everything from traditional
Speaker 3: engine sounds and it does sound gimmicky, but when you
Speaker 3: pair the traditional engine sounds with the gear shifting, it
Speaker 3: just feels like a fast internal combustion car. Like it
Speaker 3: will literally pulse gears. It will allay to downshift. It
Speaker 3: does pulses on downshow do you do hear crackles and
Speaker 3: pops anything, which I loved, which is really cool. You
Speaker 3: can then adjust talk split. It's got a drift optimizer.
Speaker 3: Probably the coolest part though, is the repeatability of the
Speaker 3: drive train, So you can set it into a drag
Speaker 3: mode or a just like you on Saturday, or you
Speaker 3: can set it into a track mode and it will
Speaker 3: keep the battery temperatures at optimum levels for those two tasks.
Speaker 3: And even with launch control, you can set what kind
Speaker 3: of grip level you have available and that will then
Speaker 3: vary how hard it launchers.
Speaker 2: See that's some good tech, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like for that sort of car, and you know you
Speaker 1: can really deep dive and put some stuff on it.
Speaker 2: How did you.
Speaker 1: Find the drift function work. How did you find the
Speaker 1: effectiveness of it?
Speaker 3: Well, we were given the green light to cook a
Speaker 3: set of tires, so it was fantastic fun. So I
Speaker 3: spent hard an afternoon fucking around with that, and it
Speaker 3: was fantastic. It is when you set it to one
Speaker 3: hundred percent rear talk split and you switch everything off,
Speaker 3: it is all entirely off, whereas with the EV six
Speaker 3: GT when you're in drift mode it's not exactly off,
Speaker 3: whereas with this it is entirely off. So the biggest
Speaker 3: issue they had with that feature was actually limiting the
Speaker 3: RPM on the motors, because what happens is once an
Speaker 3: electric motor starts, once you lose traction, it will spin
Speaker 3: up to twenty thousand rpm immediately and then it will
Speaker 3: stay doing that and you can have a lot of
Speaker 3: issues with so just as an example, if you do
Speaker 3: set it to rewill drive, you get it into a
Speaker 3: state where the rear tires have lost traction and it's
Speaker 3: spinning at twenty thousand rpm. When you let out of
Speaker 3: the throttle, because it's spinning so much, it takes a
Speaker 3: while for it to slow down, and it could become
Speaker 3: dangerous in the sense that the only way you could
Speaker 3: stop the car is by standing on the brakes and
Speaker 3: standing on them for like three seconds to slow the
Speaker 3: rear wheels. So what they've done is some talk limiting
Speaker 3: on the motor when it is in that in that mode,
Speaker 3: so it means that when you do unleash on it,
Speaker 3: well won't just go straight out. So they've done some
Speaker 3: really clever stuff there that a lot of people don't
Speaker 3: know is actually happening in the background. So from that
Speaker 3: point of view, it's great, great driving position. Unfortunately manual seats,
Speaker 3: and the reason they have that is because the electric
Speaker 3: seat doesn't sit low enough, so they've gone with a
Speaker 3: manual seat to have it sitting lower. Steering feels great,
Speaker 3: the breaks are fantastic and it's repeatable as well. We
Speaker 3: managed to get like one lap out of the Mustang
Speaker 3: MARKEEEGT at the track.
Speaker 2: The what do you mean one lap?
Speaker 3: It just started degrading, derating performance. It was a hot day,
Speaker 3: granted then Model Wide Performance got three laps before the
Speaker 3: breaks started cooking I think five in it ended up
Speaker 3: doing seven laps continuous without any heat issues with the motor,
Speaker 3: the brakes or anything.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 3: So yeah, they've got some fantastic tech in there, and
Speaker 3: to me, I just think that if you're going to
Speaker 3: be buying a performance ev, this is the best of
Speaker 3: the bunch. The issue that they've got now, though, is
Speaker 3: what Tesla is doing with their pricing. So we mentioned
Speaker 3: earlier that Tesla's dropping their prices. I mean, if you
Speaker 3: can get a Model Wide Performance for eighty something grand,
Speaker 3: that's thirty grand cheaper than an Ironic five Inn. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's not quite the same in terms of performance, So
Speaker 3: it's not the same at all.
Speaker 2: I think you're looking at two different cars almost to
Speaker 2: be honest, but it's yeah grand.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I drove a Model Y here. God, that thing
Speaker 1: has some creaks and cracks in it. I forgot, like
Speaker 1: it'd been a while since I'd driven a Model Y
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, I forgot how firm that was? Yes,
Speaker 1: And at the time I was like, maybe it's just
Speaker 1: my hemorrhoids playing up, but it was it's really I
Speaker 1: was like, my brother in law bought that for like
Speaker 1: eighty grand at the time, and I was like, he's
Speaker 1: barely driven it.
Speaker 2: Barely.
Speaker 1: I didn't look at it, but I know he's barely
Speaker 1: driven this thing. He would have to have under five
Speaker 1: thousand k's on it, and like the like it was
Speaker 1: actually doing my head in the creeks and stuff that
Speaker 1: I think come from that that roof the fact that
Speaker 1: that glass roof must heat plastics or something that surrounds
Speaker 1: it and things just kind of snap out of shape.
Speaker 2: And but I was like, oh, nah, yeah, nah, a's
Speaker 2: your model, while going yeah it's fine, but yeah, same thing.
Speaker 3: It's the suspension is overly for is really uncomfortable, not
Speaker 3: very nice to drive.
Speaker 2: So hopefully they'll fix that.
Speaker 1: But that's what I mean, and I think this ionic
Speaker 1: five in. I think it's they've got the cred to
Speaker 1: put this up with the grates now.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And part of the problem is what I mentioned before,
Speaker 3: the review that we did didn't really go that great,
Speaker 3: and I had to look globally again, none of the
Speaker 3: reviews went too crazy. And if you have a look
Speaker 3: at the availability of this car in Australia right now,
Speaker 3: you can get anything basically for immediate delivery as in
Speaker 3: any color.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, so available for immediate delivery.
Speaker 3: So I think that tells you that the demand perhaps
Speaker 3: isn't there despite it being a fantastic car. So let's
Speaker 3: see how it goes once we get this drag racing
Speaker 3: series out where we're literally doing everything we've done. The
Speaker 3: first video that will go live is the ON five
Speaker 3: n up against a six cylinder which was a nine
Speaker 3: to eleven GT three, a V eight which was a
Speaker 3: G sixty three Brabus with a stage one versus a
Speaker 3: V ten which was a hurricane sto versus a V
Speaker 3: twelve which was an eight twelve competitory only, and that
Speaker 3: was the first video. We then did another six videos
Speaker 3: after that, including one which I'm so excited to see.
Speaker 3: One of the mechanics that was down there helping us.
Speaker 3: He owns an eighteen hundred horsepower HQ that runs on methanol,
Speaker 3: so he trucked that down on the last.
Speaker 1: We've seen Donald drink some of that stuff. Sure neck
Speaker 1: a bottle cookie, that's a cook one.
Speaker 2: Hey.
Speaker 1: I had the by d C or Performance slightly different
Speaker 1: car it has a flirted with.
Speaker 2: Before, really enjoyed it, really enjoyed it. I think it's great.
Speaker 1: It's such a it's if you compare that to a
Speaker 1: Model three, I personally think it's almost it's pretty much
Speaker 1: neck and neck. I think I think it's just now
Speaker 1: apples and like which one do you prefer? Like, I
Speaker 1: think looks wise, I think the Seal is a far
Speaker 1: better looking car. I think stats wise, off the top
Speaker 1: of my head, I think the Tesla Performance obviously has
Speaker 1: some you know, quicker it could be slightly quicker.
Speaker 2: This is one hundred in about three point eight seconds.
Speaker 1: But the thing with a lot of these performance evs
Speaker 1: is great in a straight line, but when it comes
Speaker 1: to handling, they're absolute rubbish. This, on the other hand,
Speaker 1: is not that this handle's great, like it's such a
Speaker 1: well sort of tuned car. It's just it's it almost
Speaker 1: feels like it's been tuned for Australian roads.
Speaker 2: It drives great, it's.
Speaker 1: Got the performance sort of tucked away there. It's not
Speaker 1: overly in your face as well. Starling wise, I think
Speaker 1: it looks far better than the Model three. I think
Speaker 1: the interior actually looks better too. If you told me
Speaker 1: like eighteen months ago the BYD interior. You know, remember
Speaker 1: when we sat in the Atto three the dumbbells and
Speaker 1: the water and the muscles and all that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're bringing out the Seal you really.
Speaker 1: Soon or actually I don't know if I'm allowed to
Speaker 1: say this, but I guess we can call it the
Speaker 1: Sea Line six. They're bringing that out, which is the
Speaker 1: four wheel drive version of this, which I think looks good.
Speaker 2: But I just love this Satan. I love it. It
Speaker 2: was such a great commuting car too. Yeah, I think they.
Speaker 3: Look fantastic performance wise, it's great fun. This is I mean,
Speaker 3: when you do compare this to a Model three performance,
Speaker 3: especially the new one. They've just launched very different cars.
Speaker 3: This won't. This doesn't have repeatable perform mormans. It sort
Speaker 3: of you hit it once and it's there. On handling front,
Speaker 3: I think it's good, but it is let down by
Speaker 3: some of those electronics. If you really start picking up.
Speaker 3: It sort of just struggles a little bit with the
Speaker 3: amount of power that it has. But that is all
Speaker 3: something that they will eventually get better at when it
Speaker 3: comes to tuning and all that sort of stuff. And
Speaker 3: for the price just under seventy grand, it is significantly
Speaker 3: cheaper than everything else on the market.
Speaker 1: So yeah, do you know the one thing the big
Speaker 1: thing for me that I was a bit like, oh really,
Speaker 1: but I think I've been told it's a software update.
Speaker 1: It's not even a fault. It's actually deliberately there. I
Speaker 1: left my dog in there and went into buttings and
Speaker 1: the fucking thing was like the alarm was going off
Speaker 1: left front and center. It's apparently you know that function
Speaker 1: if you leave kids in the car, which is annoying too,
Speaker 1: because I left Pops in the car when I went
Speaker 1: to the casino for.
Speaker 2: Five and he went on holidays.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I left her at the airport only there
Speaker 1: for four weeks. It was fine, But yeah, they've got
Speaker 1: this alarm that sort of goes off.
Speaker 2: Can that not be there?
Speaker 3: Well, a lot of modern cars have the ability for
Speaker 3: you to switch off the motion sensor insight.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll dig about take a Patty's Market. I'm sure
Speaker 1: there's someone who can fix it. So some good stuff, some.
Speaker 3: Good cars, exciting stuff. So yeah, we're going to have
Speaker 3: to try and make this more regular.
Speaker 2: It's been quite.
Speaker 1: Busy so yeah, I mean I've I've moved house, moved jobs.
Speaker 1: You've been out of the job, shockingly homeless for quite somebody,
Speaker 1: which is evident. You disgrace doing hand jobs as well.
Speaker 1: You are doing hand jobs. So that's been that's been
Speaker 1: your life issues, I guess. But I'm here for you
Speaker 1: if you want to talk. That's what all the good
Speaker 1: podcasts do now? Is talking about every three months?
Speaker 2: Is? But yes, this will get more regular and some.
Speaker 1: Exciting stuff on the horizon. You know what, you should
Speaker 1: check in with Donna. You should give her a call.
Speaker 2: Have you a number? You've saved it in your phone?
Speaker 2: That hole in the wall, why don't you Why didn't
Speaker 2: you put your phone? Allows on speaker phone?
Speaker 3: Let me let me give her a tingle d D
Speaker 3: D double D Donna. There she is, see if she answers?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 5: Gee, hang on, Darlan, hang on, Donna's killing Ben hang on. Oh,
Speaker 5: but don't usually get up till one in the afternoon.
Speaker 5: How are you, Dalan?
Speaker 2: Good? How are you doing? Love?
Speaker 5: You haven't called me angels pabbly have you been?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Good? I haven't been out that way for a
Speaker 2: little while. Last time kind of left me a little scarred,
Speaker 2: so to speak.
Speaker 5: You've got a bloody come and visit Donnor in the caravan,
Speaker 5: darl And you've got you remember having it there?
Speaker 1: It's near the Adelaide Glory And if you get.
Speaker 5: A little bit lost, you fucking follow the yellow.
Speaker 2: Droupe bro that's will be just in. Have you been
Speaker 2: has your n f ha's all that? Yeah? Good. I'd
Speaker 2: love for you to meet my mate Gordy.
Speaker 3: Sometimes he's sort of, you know, a bit lonely and
Speaker 3: stuff like that.
Speaker 5: I listened to the podcast and he sounds surprisingly well high.
Speaker 6: Basic looking at their bloody n ft is the n
Speaker 6: f T, the Sties.
Speaker 5: You're a girl, have some psy from fun Randed, Donna
Speaker 5: Fight Darlin, Hey, well when he when are you going
