Speaker 1: Take a few glasses and apologize to us.
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, but I'm not taking on my glass.
Speaker 1: What's a procedure?
Speaker 3: This is Roden Gabby versus.
Speaker 4: The world.
Speaker 1: Fry. Yay, we did it.
Speaker 4: We're finally there.
Speaker 1: Five day week. Well done. Hello Gabby, Hello, welcome to
Speaker 1: your final shift with us today.
Speaker 5: Dance.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good morning, and good morning to your of your
Speaker 1: joining uscross the greatest.
Speaker 4: Very happy about it? Oh no, yeah, I have a little.
Speaker 6: Bit excited for what's ahead, but that's still sad.
Speaker 1: If you are joining us for the first time. This
Speaker 1: is Darcy. He won't be here after today because you're
Speaker 1: your tenure wraps up as you decide to move to
Speaker 1: South America. I know you said you're gonna come back,
Speaker 1: but I for me in my mind's eye, you fine, love,
Speaker 1: you settle now, and you give us someone to visit
Speaker 1: on the other side of the planet.
Speaker 6: So you've got a hunch. I'm moving permanently to Mexico.
Speaker 1: And you're unwitting you're going to go over there. This happens,
Speaker 1: beautiful story.
Speaker 4: It happens to camera all the time. People go I
Speaker 4: just came to Cambra for a year, and I've been
Speaker 4: here for twenty that's.
Speaker 1: All the time. How does that happen? Do you come here,
Speaker 1: find love and settle down? I don't know, but certainly
Speaker 1: international adventure, anything can happen out there, mate. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: very excited for you, that's true.
Speaker 4: Also, if you're going for more than a month, you
Speaker 4: are moving there.
Speaker 1: Do you reckon?
Speaker 4: Yeah? If you go over six months, absolutely you're moving there.
Speaker 6: But it's not in one specific play.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I can see you integrating into Mexican.
Speaker 6: Village life with no Spanish at all.
Speaker 4: Now, but you'll figure it out in time.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we've got a morning together, so let's
Speaker 1: get stuck into it here. I'm going to clickbait us
Speaker 1: as a city and I apologize. However, the NBL's coming
Speaker 1: back to Canberra.
Speaker 4: It actually is.
Speaker 1: I'm right, I know. But you hear that and you
Speaker 1: go the Canons are back. I'm not saying the Cannons
Speaker 1: are back, but we are saying, Darcy.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Well they're coming for preseason. All ten teams are
Speaker 6: coming to play over a weekend in August and they'll
Speaker 6: be doing all at ais Arena.
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like Magic Round for the NRL
Speaker 4: in Brisbane, but it's for the basketball preseason here in Canberra,
Speaker 4: so every team will play. I think there's like twenty
Speaker 4: games or ten games over five days or something like that.
Speaker 4: Ten games and it is going to be so good.
Speaker 1: It is going to be fantastic.
Speaker 4: I'm so excited. And this has to be a precursor
Speaker 4: for us to get a team back.
Speaker 1: It has to be correct.
Speaker 4: Why else would you bring the NBL to Canberra if
Speaker 4: we weren't looking at getting a team back.
Speaker 1: Correct. So since the jujap of the Ais, that's how
Speaker 1: Kieran Perkins, who oversaw the juja describes its. Yes, but
Speaker 1: nevertheless that's the sentiment and it's right since he's done
Speaker 1: such an incredible job. We've broken the national ice hockey
Speaker 1: attendance record and now the eyes of the NBL turned
Speaker 1: back to the nation's capital where the once upon a
Speaker 1: time three time national champions, the Canberra Cannons, called home,
Speaker 1: and we count down now to when we're giving the
Speaker 1: green light to get back in there. And there's been
Speaker 1: talks on the down low for the last twelve months
Speaker 1: about that, behind the scenes, and so we just continue
Speaker 1: to hold our breath for that. But NBL are saying
Speaker 1: we have not forgotten about you. In fact, the most
Speaker 1: exciting part of the preseason in the NBL is this Blitz,
Speaker 1: ye and it's coming his a three day festival.
Speaker 4: I am so excited.
Speaker 1: I'm very excited. A couple of years ago there was
Speaker 1: a young Cambra kid called Alex two who turned up
Speaker 1: to the Blitz. Obviously it wasn't here. He set the
Speaker 1: Blitz on fire. They said, this kid's the next big thing.
Speaker 1: And today he will be drafted into the NBA today,
Speaker 1: which is incredible. It's the draft pick today, so the
Speaker 1: drafts yesterday. He's going to go in the mid thirties
Speaker 1: and so is he Marris boy, is he? That's right?
Speaker 1: Twenty one? Incredible and he will get picked up today
Speaker 1: in Day two of the NBA Draft in the US.
Speaker 1: I don't know which team he will go to, but
Speaker 1: obviously you'll be keeping an eye on it in the Newstent.
Speaker 1: But it highlights the importance of this Blitz. You see
Speaker 1: obviously the star imports that are joining the competition for
Speaker 1: the first time, and then you see the stars of
Speaker 1: the future like Alex, who are young guys that may
Speaker 1: have grown up in Australian towns all around the place
Speaker 1: and are on their way to the biggest competition on
Speaker 1: the planet. So this is fantastic. Tickets gone sale nine
Speaker 1: thirty this morning, Yes.
Speaker 4: So nine thirty this morning and they're going to sell
Speaker 4: out real quick. So it's happening from Wednesday, the twenty
Speaker 4: seventh of August to the thirty first of August, so
Speaker 4: five days, two games per day. Was so good. I'm
Speaker 4: so excited about it.
Speaker 1: If you ever went to a basketball game when you
Speaker 1: were a kid or a grown up, I remember going
Speaker 1: and seeing the Southeast Melbourne Magic, the North Melbourne Giants.
Speaker 1: I remember going to the Canbra Crocodiles and the Cans
Speaker 1: Taipe hands over the years, and of course anyone who
Speaker 1: grew up here going to Canberra Cannons games. There is
Speaker 1: no energy in atmosphere like this.
Speaker 4: Every Cannons game as a kid, mainly to see the
Speaker 4: halftime performers.
Speaker 1: But you know, whatever, the motivation was.
Speaker 3: Rod and Gabby versus the world.
Speaker 1: What nineties pets is making a comeback? And what is
Speaker 1: a nineties pets?
Speaker 4: I knew you'd ask that question, because the nineties pet
Speaker 4: is making a comeback. People are really excited about this
Speaker 4: it's been seen in Kmart, it's been seen in some
Speaker 4: other toy stores, and it is sea monkeys. Oh okay,
Speaker 4: how excited here it is?
Speaker 1: I I think sea monkeys have been around longer than that.
Speaker 1: Oh you got your childhood.
Speaker 4: Around for a very long time. But they just have
Speaker 4: like these these lifts in popularity every now and then.
Speaker 4: Right in the nineties, it was huge, right massive, and
Speaker 4: then now and then they kind of had a lull,
Speaker 4: and now they're coming back and people are getting really
Speaker 4: excited about it.
Speaker 1: It kind of had a forty year thirty year lull. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a lull.
Speaker 4: Luckily in their little dehydrated eggs they don't, you know,
Speaker 4: expire before.
Speaker 1: Even before television. I remember if you if you ever
Speaker 1: go to a comic book store and they let you
Speaker 1: go back through the super old ones, like there's sixties
Speaker 1: comic books. They're mail away things that you can cut
Speaker 1: out from them.
Speaker 4: I think there's actually a sea monkey's comic from back
Speaker 4: in the day.
Speaker 1: Too, probably like you know, and but you'd also be
Speaker 1: able to mail away for X ray glasses and all
Speaker 1: sorts of silly things. But sea monkeys, sorry, cool super
Speaker 1: smart things like sea monkeys that were just popular there
Speaker 1: for so many decades. But have had a lull explain
Speaker 1: to me, by the way, because I've never had them.
Speaker 4: I had these back in the nineties and it's like
Speaker 4: this little container. They're like a micro shrimp. I think
Speaker 4: that's what they are.
Speaker 1: And so they are a living organised yea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's dehydrated eggsit you get in a packet
Speaker 4: and when you put them into the water and with
Speaker 4: the special I don't know formula that they make you
Speaker 4: stir in there as.
Speaker 1: Well, brings stuff to life.
Speaker 4: They hatch and they're really really tiny, and then they
Speaker 4: can grow to be I don't know, maybe the size
Speaker 4: of about four or five millimeters long. Like they don't
Speaker 4: get huge, but you can create little worlds for them whatnot.
Speaker 4: You've got to feed them every couple of days. You've
Speaker 4: got to airrate the water to make sure that they survive.
Speaker 4: As a nineties kid, you've got to have patients to
Speaker 4: get them to be big, and not many people.
Speaker 1: Did, especially nineties kids. That was the beginning of the
Speaker 1: end of the patients.
Speaker 4: You're right. And my sisters and I all had sea monkeys.
Speaker 4: We've got them for Christmas and my sister's friend hates
Speaker 4: me telling this story because she still feels bad about
Speaker 4: it to this day. But I was dedicated to my
Speaker 4: sea monkeys and I was really keen to see them
Speaker 4: get big. My sisters had given up on theirs, but
Speaker 4: I would say, no, I'm going to get these sea
Speaker 4: monkeys big. And then at my sister's birthday party one year,
Speaker 4: her friend accidentally knocked the container and spilt all over
Speaker 4: the couch, and to my sea monkeys were no longer,
Speaker 4: and I was devastated. And she still feels terrible about
Speaker 4: it to this day every time I bring it up.
Speaker 4: Because I do bring it up because it's funny.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I mean in her defense, and I
Speaker 1: don't want her to carry, you know, this burden she's
Speaker 1: guilty any longer. Yeah, And I don't know for a fact,
Speaker 1: but I'm guessing that sea monkey has no, you know,
Speaker 1: sort of awareness memory. I wouldn't think so consciousness.
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you you're the Vergio. You tell me,
Speaker 4: I gladly dream.
Speaker 1: That jug full of sea monkeys and not feel guilty
Speaker 1: for a Second's sick because the play tastes terrible, but
Speaker 1: I would drink. I mentioned I don't know a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. North Melbourne supporters don't need to freak out.
Speaker 1: Your team's good, coach is great, You're going to be fine.
Speaker 1: And then they came out and they won as I
Speaker 1: kind of you know, forecast in a roundabout way, and
Speaker 1: none kid, everyone w Carlton is a disaster. I can't
Speaker 1: believe you're lost to North Melbourne. They're the worst, which
Speaker 1: now makes you the worst. Fire the coach. Now that
Speaker 1: is a that is a short summation of an entire season,
Speaker 1: perhaps even longer. But Melbourne, but Carlton supporters were banged
Speaker 1: for blood, you know, and you know, you know that
Speaker 1: your team can be good when you start shouting to
Speaker 1: fither coach. I'm a security supporter and now we have
Speaker 1: nothing to show for. You know, my entire lifetime of supporting.
Speaker 4: Them and changes of coach haven't helped.
Speaker 1: Correct And so now you know, we don't even say
Speaker 1: fire the coach. We go, well, what are we gonna do?
Speaker 1: We're to fire this guy and get another guy that
Speaker 1: can't get it done, stick with this guy. Just see
Speaker 1: what happened. But Carlton have had success you when a
Speaker 1: lot of their supporters were younger. And then they go,
Speaker 1: we want some more of that. We don't know what
Speaker 1: that's like. So we got.
Speaker 4: Anyway, you don't have the baseline.
Speaker 1: We don't have we have no reference. And so they
Speaker 1: went into last night's game against port with people going listen,
Speaker 1: they're gonna show up, get right, really pumped up. They
Speaker 1: need to show they've got some heart and some courage.
Speaker 1: And then they didn't score pretty much for half the game,
Speaker 1: and then they lost by a million goals by the
Speaker 1: end of the game, and so it was very bad anyway,
Speaker 1: bad from bad to worse. The news this morning that's
Speaker 1: being reported on the TV from out the front of
Speaker 1: Carlton HQ is going like this.
Speaker 7: Well, Blues fans are absolutely fed up, and that is
Speaker 7: evident because written on quite a number of the walls
Speaker 7: here at Princess Park is.
Speaker 1: Now written seems like a polite way of saying, spray
Speaker 1: painted slash graffiti haven't gone a little text up. It's
Speaker 1: not a little bit of chalk. This is there's someone's
Speaker 1: got a terrible job on their hands, having a scrub
Speaker 1: the HQ clean today.
Speaker 7: Graffiti starting with this sack the board that spray painted
Speaker 7: last night.
Speaker 8: There's also a number of other messages.
Speaker 1: Shot his Shavot supports and me might not even have
Speaker 1: an AFL team, you, Sydney boy, I have no idea.
Speaker 8: I don't know, including Sack Austin, sack Lloyd.
Speaker 7: That's the list manager Nick Austen and footy manager Brad Lloyd.
Speaker 8: Interesting to you though, it says Keith Voss.
Speaker 1: Well, I think that gets us to the bottom of
Speaker 1: who's done it?
Speaker 4: Who's boss?
Speaker 1: He's a coach, he says the world. Now this is
Speaker 1: good new good timing. So, Darcy, we had the big
Speaker 1: game with Penrith taking on Bulldog's top of the table
Speaker 1: last night and you just reported that Penrith got it done.
Speaker 1: What must have been an old fashioned arm wrestle. What
Speaker 1: was the final score eight to six, which is.
Speaker 6: Very low scoring across the whole game, but reports that
Speaker 6: I've seen across today. So it's the game of the
Speaker 6: season so far.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you don't usually have an eight six final
Speaker 1: score where people go to the game of the season,
Speaker 1: but old fashioned arm wrestle. It sounds like it was.
Speaker 4: It was a struggle to the end.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look great defense. I said this weeks ago.
Speaker 1: It was at last ten minutes of that game. I
Speaker 1: watched of the Raiders, and while it sounds like a
Speaker 1: boring thing to say, if you want to watch great defense,
Speaker 1: that was fantastic. Well, it sounds like this was a
Speaker 1: game of defense. And so halfway through the second half,
Speaker 1: the Pennies were still only on two, the Bulldogs were
Speaker 1: on six. And then the man they say is the
Speaker 1: best player in the world did.
Speaker 4: This charge down.
Speaker 1: It's clearing. We gets back, he catches eightest. God, she's
Speaker 1: good and I usually don't get around him. But he
Speaker 1: now puts the Raiders in prime position to go top
Speaker 1: of the table.
Speaker 4: That's why you love Cleary today.
Speaker 1: Today's's day. We as a city, we cared about that
Speaker 1: game more than we otherwise would have. Hayden, have you
Speaker 1: got the update on where tonight's game. If we win,
Speaker 1: we go top of the table. If we win on
Speaker 1: top of the table, that's it. We got to win,
Speaker 1: all right. The newsboys are all across it today. We'll
Speaker 1: cross back to the newsroom with both you gentlemen throughout
Speaker 1: the morning. Gee, you'd be loving amazing news. That maybe
Speaker 1: would be the greatest thing I've heard in my entire life.
Speaker 1: So no pressure to not clickbait to see Gabby but
Speaker 1: it is a dream of mine to see a Disneyland
Speaker 1: built in our great country.
Speaker 4: Well, I think we are a step closer. And this
Speaker 4: is me saying that this is not somewhere else that
Speaker 4: I've pulled that from. I think we're a step closer
Speaker 4: to having Disneyland in Australia because the US have trusted
Speaker 4: us to have the world's first Barbie cafe outside of
Speaker 4: the United States of America.
Speaker 1: Solid but nowhere near our own Disneyland.
Speaker 4: But the fact that they've trusted us to do that
Speaker 4: means that we're in good stead for a Disneyland.
Speaker 1: So where is the longboat drawer? I get it side
Speaker 1: as they love Sydney Harbor and so if they can
Speaker 1: put a pop up there, a Darling Harbor there or
Speaker 1: somewhere near the bridge or whatever, they think it's iconic.
Speaker 4: No, it's not in Sydney.
Speaker 1: Where is.
Speaker 4: It's in Melbourne. It's a Chadstone shopping center.
Speaker 1: It's in Chatty Shopping it is it's the.
Speaker 4: First ever Malibu Barbie cafe outside of the States. As
Speaker 4: I mentioned, it's only here for a limited time. They
Speaker 4: reckon it will stay open till at least summer. But
Speaker 4: you know, if it's really popular. I reckon it'll just
Speaker 4: keep going. But it's like stepping into your own Barbie dreamhouse,
Speaker 4: like life size version, and they've got like a pink
Speaker 4: Barbie scooter out the front, and everything's very Barbie centric
Speaker 4: and it's very cute and I really love it. But
Speaker 4: I just feel like, you know, America, our owns Disneyland.
Speaker 4: I know that it's in other countries, but in every
Speaker 4: country except here originated in America. I feel like this
Speaker 4: is them dipping their toe into Australia to see how
Speaker 4: the Barbie Cafe goes, to see how much we get
Speaker 4: around it, and if we do, then they might say, alright,
Speaker 4: at this time.
Speaker 1: You're giving us some hope. So Mattel, who owned Barbie,
Speaker 1: are not even mid They're deep through construction of their
Speaker 1: first theme park in America. And so you think about
Speaker 1: Mattel and so that roller coaster is going to be
Speaker 1: the hot Wheels, rolling awesome, Barbie Land will be in there,
Speaker 1: Masters of the Universe Land will be in there, and
Speaker 1: so all those incredible assets that Mattel have, Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: take in Mattel World. Okay, Okay, there you go.
Speaker 4: Okay, you're not super disappointed? Are you a little bit.
Speaker 3: Versus the world?
Speaker 1: And good morning to produce Chelsea, good morning. As a
Speaker 1: Perth girl, do you feel pride with Perth making the
Speaker 1: news today for the pub thefts or shame?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Pride, pride and really if we all think about it,
Speaker 1: I mean, none of us will, with the exception of
Speaker 1: some you know, like fingered people who are like the
Speaker 1: five finger discount. None of us steal anything. But after
Speaker 1: you've had a skinful of the pub and you're a youngster,
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, someone wants to steal the eight ball
Speaker 1: from the pool table. Someone thinks, oh, it's more glasses
Speaker 1: at home, because you probably do. You're in a sharehouse
Speaker 1: or whatever, and you're swipe stuff from the pub.
Speaker 4: I haven't woken up the next morning with stuff in
Speaker 4: my bag, but I swear it was me right. People
Speaker 4: are sneaking stuff in.
Speaker 1: I'm sure who knows how. The point is, it's a
Speaker 1: great slash shame for all ossie tradition to get on
Speaker 1: it be young and steal stuff from the pub, and
Speaker 1: Perth is keeping that tradition alive today. Yes.
Speaker 9: So in Lancelin, which is about an hour north of Perth,
Speaker 9: a video has gone viral from a tavern. It's got
Speaker 9: like twenty seven million views on Instagram of these blokes
Speaker 9: stealing the bar mats from the tavern, like one by one,
Speaker 9: just sneakily going up and like taking the bar mats.
Speaker 9: And they ended up taking the AFL premiership flag as well.
Speaker 1: I touched the premiership flag. That's where they draw when
Speaker 1: there's going to be trouble. Okay, but it would be
Speaker 1: so sticky, they'd be sticky, they'd be they'd.
Speaker 9: Be the video of how they do it, one by
Speaker 9: one stealing.
Speaker 1: So the security footage from behind the bar.
Speaker 4: And it's one of those bar mats that's like a
Speaker 4: material bar matt, by the way, not like one of
Speaker 4: those thick rubber ones. Well, no, they are underneath. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I think there's just different ones.
Speaker 1: But they're a long they're a long bar rudder. Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: So it's looks like it's a hearneken matt there and
Speaker 1: it's quiet because it's silent, I should take it as
Speaker 1: a security camera. And old mate is it's.
Speaker 4: Got a bit stuck. Well, there's sticky a the MAT's
Speaker 4: just trying to.
Speaker 9: Act so casual about it, but like they're probably having
Speaker 9: the biggest laugh. Look at them shoving them in a
Speaker 9: woolwortz bag.
Speaker 4: I might mention that they've pre planned this.
Speaker 1: I planned nothing. They've got no. I'll tell you why
Speaker 1: this isn't. This is when you hear the term daylight robbery.
Speaker 1: Have a look at this footage. It's the middle of
Speaker 1: the day. And so if you have ever indulged in
Speaker 1: in a late night pub swipe, it's late night and
Speaker 1: the place is packed and no one sees anything, right,
Speaker 1: you wake up and get home Like Gabby, I don't
Speaker 1: even know what happened with all this stuff. There is
Speaker 1: no one else. There's like three or four of these boys.
Speaker 4: It's like a Sunday session or something. Yeah, and what
Speaker 4: is the jacket over the bag?
Speaker 1: The stiest looking blokes, they're smiling, they're looking sideways and
Speaker 1: this I guess the flag right? Okay, so now the
Speaker 1: attempt to try and steal the premiership flag from the
Speaker 1: local footy.
Speaker 9: Club up the back of the jumper.
Speaker 4: That's actually that was the most they've been so far.
Speaker 1: That was pretty good. It is it's it's turned into
Speaker 1: a crime spree at this stage. I reckon they're up
Speaker 1: to about eight bar mats.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think stolen. He just folded up one of
Speaker 4: the bar mats and put it into the back of
Speaker 4: his pants. He would have the grossest drippings down his
Speaker 4: boat crash. That was a really bad idea.
Speaker 1: At a certain point in this, you know, this escapade,
Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing.
Speaker 4: But he's going to wake up in the morning. He's
Speaker 4: going to go to the loop and he's going to go,
Speaker 4: oh my god, am I sick?
Speaker 8: Like what is this?
Speaker 1: That's all right, it's a bar You're the Sticky Bandits.
Speaker 1: Have you heard of the Sticky Bandits?
Speaker 4: Start briefing just then, come on, has no one seen
Speaker 4: Home Alone? Have you seen Home Alone?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: So in the first Home Alone, they're the Wet Bandits.
Speaker 4: When they rob the joint, they turn all the taps
Speaker 4: on and the basement's all flood and everything. They call
Speaker 4: themselves a wet bandits. Oh they've got a curly haired
Speaker 4: guy decides that's a name, and the bald guys, I
Speaker 4: know we're not. That's silly. He doesn't anyway, And then
Speaker 4: in New York for the second Home Alone, he decides
Speaker 4: they're the Sticky Bandits now and he does double sided
Speaker 4: tape around his hand and as they go past the
Speaker 4: donation tints, he sticks his hand in and comes out
Speaker 4: with all the coens and so he decides their name
Speaker 4: is now the Sticky Band.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, So this was brought up because we've been
Speaker 1: covering the thirsty thieves in Perth. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you saw these guys. See apparently twenty seven million people
Speaker 1: around us, around the world, around the eyes of the
Speaker 1: world have turned to Perth. And so we were just
Speaker 1: taking a look at this security footage from behind a
Speaker 1: bar like in some outback pub, like an hour north
Speaker 1: of Perth. What's let's go to produce a Chelsea. What's
Speaker 1: the name of this township up there?
Speaker 4: It's Lanceloon, Lanceloon, I just want to say Lancelot.
Speaker 1: Well, it's Lancelot and so Lancelo and they had the
Speaker 1: premiership flags. Obviously the local Lanceloon teams won the cup.
Speaker 1: The what's the Lancelo and footy team called up there? Chelsea?
Speaker 4: I would have no idea what animal starts with.
Speaker 1: L the Lions, the Lanceloon Lions, all the Lanceloon.
Speaker 4: There.
Speaker 1: That's a funny name. The Lancelo and Lemurs have won
Speaker 1: the premiership and so a few blokes depart in the
Speaker 1: middle of the day which turned into night, just got
Speaker 1: on it progressively through the day. They started stealing the
Speaker 1: beer mats and then they ended up stealing the premiership
Speaker 1: flag and then they did a run up. Anyway, so
Speaker 1: you won't be surprised to learn over in w A.
Speaker 1: This is big enough news that Perth TV has picked
Speaker 1: up on it. So this is nine News Perth. This
Speaker 1: is part of the report from last night. I think
Speaker 1: they're talking with the owner of.
Speaker 9: The up the Lanceloin pub left nine bar mats short.
Speaker 1: Jade, my office girl, she put together a little bit
Speaker 1: of a real and posted it just a pretty much
Speaker 1: name of shame and try and get them back. That's
Speaker 1: gone viral.
Speaker 9: The video posted on the tabin social media has now
Speaker 9: had more than ten million views.
Speaker 1: This is so Australian that to try and name in
Speaker 1: shame they put the video up and these guys are
Speaker 1: being hailed as legerd for stealing.
Speaker 4: But not only that they put out the reel, but
Speaker 4: at the bottom they were like, bring the bar mats
Speaker 4: back and we'll give you a pint, So they weren't
Speaker 4: really in that much trouble.
Speaker 1: We are shaming you and if you've got enough front
Speaker 1: to turn up and have your beer of shame, we
Speaker 1: will put the bill on it. You better believe we're
Speaker 1: going to drink a beer in shame. Absolutely every beer
Speaker 1: ultimately ends up being a beer of shame. It's pretty
Speaker 1: huge for us and our Instagram followers. Its tripled.
Speaker 4: I want to go all of a sudden, well, this
Speaker 4: just in.
Speaker 1: The lancelom Lemurs are changing their name to the Beer
Speaker 1: Bandits and the Thirsty Thieves will be their mascots. This
Speaker 1: has put Lancelon on the mak. Okay, that's the best
Speaker 1: bad news story that we'll have today, unless Darsie comes
Speaker 1: up with something else in the next half an Hour'll
Speaker 1: catch up with you, Dan, Mate, God.
Speaker 3: And Gabby Versus The World.
Speaker 1: Stranded on Honeymoon Island began at the start of the week.
Speaker 1: We had one of the stars on after she nearly
Speaker 1: drowned in the first five minutes of the show, and
Speaker 1: we knew we were I don't know, peaking early, or
Speaker 1: we're in for something special.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well we thought so. But it turns out that
Speaker 4: other people didn't think it was quite as good as
Speaker 4: we did, because the following or the viewership definitely fell
Speaker 4: off for the second episode. So episode number one was
Speaker 4: on Monday Night and there was over five hundred thousand
Speaker 4: people that watch that, and then episode two was Tuesday
Speaker 4: night and it went down by a couple of hundred thousand.
Speaker 4: So that's a really bad indication of how it's going
Speaker 4: to go for the rest of the season, to the
Speaker 4: point where Channel seven have decided to push it back
Speaker 4: on Monday night. It's not going to be on at
Speaker 4: seven thirty, It's going to be on at eight thirty,
Speaker 4: which is really unfair. Like two episodes in, you can't
Speaker 4: make that kind of call to push it to a
Speaker 4: later time slide.
Speaker 1: Well, they'd have enough experience. Let's go to the ratings.
Speaker 1: So this was Tuesday night numbers, was it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tuesday Night. I think it was three hundred thousand
Speaker 4: viewers on Tuesday night across the country June twenty four.
Speaker 1: Okay, here we go. Where are they?
Speaker 2: There?
Speaker 1: They are? Yeah, they are, that's maybe ten or eleventh.
Speaker 4: Three hundred and seventy six, right.
Speaker 1: It's they use just woulds look where they are and
Speaker 1: relative to the other shows because they use metro and
Speaker 1: non metro numbers and all the stuff. It'll be confusing,
Speaker 1: But look as far as being indicative of where they
Speaker 1: landed on night too. If you're the thing that they've
Speaker 1: invested all this time and primo money in, and you're beaten.
Speaker 1: We didn't even know Master Chef was still on, and
Speaker 1: they were beaten by Master Chef and Honeymoon.
Speaker 4: Sorry, Home and Away is up there, and honey and
Speaker 4: Stranded on Honeymoon Island literally goes off the back of
Speaker 4: Home and Away, So you'd think that they would kind
Speaker 4: of keep those numbers.
Speaker 1: No, No, it's okay, yep. That answers the question why.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, and the other controversy has come out. We
Speaker 4: were talking about this earlier in the week that the
Speaker 4: camper guy Tom Brown, who's on Stranded on Honeymoon Island,
Speaker 4: we were checking out his Instagram and since filming he
Speaker 4: has met a woman who was on Survivor, Australian Survivor.
Speaker 4: They have had twins and gotten married, So in the
Speaker 4: time that it's taken for them to film and actually
Speaker 4: put it on TV, he's lived a life.
Speaker 1: All that said, he's he's found love, got married and
Speaker 1: had babies in a pretty tight time frame.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's very it's like within a year that
Speaker 4: that's happened. It looks like they got pregnant and had
Speaker 4: the babies and then tied the knot soon after that.
Speaker 4: But it's all hit the national media now that that's happened.
Speaker 4: And normally these reality stars have to keep their private
Speaker 4: life off social media until airing has completed, and normally
Speaker 4: their social media is actually controlled by the network. But
Speaker 4: I think because they took so long to put this
Speaker 4: to air, like it was meant to be put on
Speaker 4: TV six months ago at the start of the year,
Speaker 4: and they pushed it back by six months. You can
Speaker 4: only hold onto people's instagrams for so long and expect
Speaker 4: them not to post their life on their own personal
Speaker 4: social media for so long, and so they've just gone,
Speaker 4: oh whatever, I do what you want on your socials
Speaker 4: and everyone's like, well, we know the result of most
Speaker 4: of these stories because of their social media, So why
Speaker 4: would we watch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and as humans, we love a surprise, but if
Speaker 1: we can ruin it for ourselves.
Speaker 4: We will and we have.
Speaker 1: We're looking forward to Monday night. Season three of Parental
Speaker 1: Guidance kicks off, and gee, I watched that show because
Speaker 1: you know, I learned things and I try to apply
Speaker 1: them and there's another part of me as a parent
Speaker 1: that goes this is terrifying, terrifying, and I wonder how
Speaker 1: Ali Lange and the host goes with us with it.
Speaker 1: We're lucky to have her joining us. Now, Ali, good morning?
Speaker 5: Did I Gooday? Guys, I'm a little bit like you.
Speaker 5: I just watched it and going, man, I am screwing
Speaker 5: these kids of mine. You know they have me on
Speaker 5: the show is I can make every other parent feel
Speaker 5: better that they're doing as a little You know, no
Speaker 5: matter how bad it gets, you doing a better job
Speaker 5: than Ali. I swear this is the third season included
Speaker 5: for that take you to dawn on me. It's like, oh,
Speaker 5: I finally get why I'm here.
Speaker 4: You're the control, You're all of us. But being the
Speaker 4: third season, now, like, have you actually learned things off
Speaker 4: the show that you've gone home and tried to implement?
Speaker 4: And I very much highlight the word tried.
Speaker 5: My husband always says that I am an amazing parent.
Speaker 5: For the month after I do this show, you I
Speaker 5: go back to my old trusted ways. But no, you learn,
Speaker 5: you learn a lot. I think I particularly when I
Speaker 5: did the first season, my kids were pretty little and
Speaker 5: so and we hadn't even really thought about how we parent,
Speaker 5: so they just kind of we at least had that
Speaker 5: conversation in the house as to sort of, you know,
Speaker 5: how we parents and all and and this season it's
Speaker 5: entirely different because obviously we've talked about smacking, do you smack,
Speaker 5: don't you smack? And once you've done all that, you've
Speaker 5: done it. So this time we've broken it down into
Speaker 5: four topics. It's screen time, peer pressure, body image, and
Speaker 5: mental health, which are kind of just the really big
Speaker 5: ones that all parents are facing, kind of regardless of
Speaker 5: the age of the kids. So it's a bit different
Speaker 5: this time around. But I've learned the most from this one.
Speaker 5: This one's been the biggest eye opener.
Speaker 1: I think this is the one for us that's going
Speaker 1: to perhaps be the most valuable but not maybe definitely
Speaker 1: the most confronting. But the reality is we bury our
Speaker 1: head in the sand and we can't help. So we
Speaker 1: need to get on the journey with our kids. Have
Speaker 1: you had a moment in this season where you've perhaps
Speaker 1: felt overwhelmed. It's all good and well to be reporting
Speaker 1: on it, but we just instinctively then go, hang on
Speaker 1: a second, how does this apply to our kids.
Speaker 5: There's there's been some really big moments like that, because
Speaker 5: there's there's there's been a lot that happens in that room.
Speaker 5: There are some big discussions. There are some big discussions
Speaker 5: around consent, which that for me in that room was
Speaker 5: an eye opener just hearing how some of the parents
Speaker 5: were talking. We're like, holy hell, we got a long
Speaker 5: way to go. Wow, you know, and and then some
Speaker 5: of the stuff we were doing only screen time, because
Speaker 5: I feel like our room's kind of divided. You've got
Speaker 5: we've actually got the one set of parents who are
Speaker 5: called protech and you know, actually the kids actually make
Speaker 5: money from what they do online at all. They're sort
Speaker 5: of almost one extreme. And then you've got quite a
Speaker 5: few parents in there who are so anti tech, and
Speaker 5: you realize that's a big problem too, because our kids
Speaker 5: are going to access it and be on it, and
Speaker 5: if we don't know what's going on with it, So
Speaker 5: there are there are flaws in sort of both really,
Speaker 5: and I know that I kind of lean anti tech
Speaker 5: and sort of go don't we kind of get it
Speaker 5: and I don't like it. I find it overwhelming. This
Speaker 5: just made me realize, like, holy crap, and I need
Speaker 5: to get across this and anything my kids are talking about.
Speaker 5: I need to know it. I need to be able
Speaker 5: to navigate it because there's some there's some there's some
Speaker 5: pretty eye opening stuff around like chatbot friends and AI.
Speaker 5: That for me was and that's in episode one. So
Speaker 5: that's that's our that's our first show. That's part of
Speaker 5: it where you know how we kind of like we're
Speaker 5: just behind the eight ball with social media and like
Speaker 5: our kids got on it and we realized, oh, this
Speaker 5: is this is pretty damaging in this way, in this way,
Speaker 5: this is go like, this is kind of the next thing.
Speaker 5: So we cross it. Yeah, we really do. It was
Speaker 5: I mean, terrifying in some ways, but then it's like, Okay,
Speaker 5: now I know about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, correct knowledge is power, right, Yeah, and I get
Speaker 4: the parents everything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there'll be there'll be parents listening. Now they go, oh,
Speaker 1: that's it's too much to cope with. But overcome that
Speaker 1: challenge yourself, do the hard thing, watch that first little bit,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you're in the game.
Speaker 4: I'm where you were for first. You're too hard.
Speaker 5: It's not too hard, like it's not too like we're
Speaker 5: dealing with kids and needs of challenges with kids, and
Speaker 5: we've got psychologists who work with it. So it's not like, oh,
Speaker 5: I can't watch this because this is going to be
Speaker 5: way too heavy, Telly Like, there's some fabulous light moments
Speaker 5: and all in it too, but the conversations are just
Speaker 5: kind of you know, we say that they're the ones
Speaker 5: we actually have to have.
Speaker 4: I'm where you were for first season Ali, where I've
Speaker 4: got a really young child and I'm still figuring out
Speaker 4: what parenting style i have. So I'm like really intrigued
Speaker 4: by the names as protech, active, upfront authority. What is
Speaker 4: the hard way parentee?
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, I loved these guys. It is literally,
Speaker 5: if there is an easy way to do something, we
Speaker 5: don't do that. We go the hard. Like every meal
Speaker 5: is cooked from scratch. The kids are involved in in, in,
Speaker 5: in everything. It is just to everything you apply in life,
Speaker 5: do it the hard way.
Speaker 4: No, I'm barely surviving trying to do it the easy way, I.
Speaker 5: Know, and it just instead And I'm looking at me,
Speaker 5: so you don't you don't like take away?
Speaker 4: No, I know that's not the parenting style.
Speaker 1: I'll be taking no, but.
Speaker 5: You learn so But I sat there going I wish
Speaker 5: I could be like them, and and then you just go,
Speaker 5: nah's but their kids. But you see the benefit. You
Speaker 5: see the benefit of the effort they put in. You see,
Speaker 5: you see you see the reward. I mean, and looking
Speaker 5: all the kids are beautiful. But so yeah, you'll look
Speaker 5: at it and you'll aspire to be like that. But
Speaker 5: I can promise you.
Speaker 1: Halfway there and we've done better than we otherwise would
Speaker 1: and that's the goal. This is a fantastic show. Season
Speaker 1: three Parental Guidance Monday Night, seven thirty on nine and
Speaker 1: then of course we can get it on demand on nine. Now.
Speaker 1: Congratulations gold Logi. We're going to put our vote for you.

Speaker 1: the TV Monday Night.
Speaker 5: Thanks guys, Rud and Gabby.
Speaker 1: Versus the World in the UK, The polar Opposite of
Speaker 1: what we're experiencing with our feels like minus eight to start.
Speaker 1: They have a heat wave, remembering, of course a heat.
Speaker 4: Wave for them is very different to a heat wave
Speaker 4: for us.
Speaker 1: Yes, so they're got used to hot temperature. Here's the quote,
Speaker 1: the UK is in the midst of a heat wave,
Speaker 1: regularly experiencing thirty degrees celsi as temperatures.
Speaker 4: I shouldn't laugh because that can actually be deathly for them.
Speaker 4: But rast we're like, that's just like spring. I look
Speaker 4: to Darwin with.
Speaker 1: Their thirty one top the Sarfner and that looks beautiful
Speaker 1: up there, doesn't it. Anyway, So footage of the cost
Speaker 1: COEs over there is blowing up on social media, but
Speaker 1: you can get the bulk waters and so people are
Speaker 1: going bananas over there.
Speaker 4: Oh they're getting like huge, it's like crates of water.
Speaker 1: Yes, as are they.
Speaker 4: That's what my husband brought me to put in my
Speaker 4: car because I'm constantly buying water out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's to say hydrated. I mean the panic
Speaker 1: over there with the temperature soaring to twenty eight degrees
Speaker 1: twenty nine.
Speaker 4: They're not equipped to deal with twenty eight and thirty.
Speaker 4: It doesn't houses are not built for the heat. They're
Speaker 4: built for the cold, so they don't have proper air
Speaker 4: con and ventilation of that kind of thing, so they
Speaker 4: do struggle a lot.
Speaker 1: Is there something? Is there something when you're not used
Speaker 1: to it that you're more likely to keel over as
Speaker 1: a result of a thirty degree temperature though? Or is
Speaker 1: the body okay?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 4: People do die in these heat waves in the UK
Speaker 4: and Europe. It does happen. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Produce a Chelsea welcome back. Thank you. You have a
Speaker 1: cool game for us that we can all play wherever
Speaker 1: you are if you're in a relationship, and it's called
Speaker 1: Chelsea's Wedding Last Name Game. How does this work?
Speaker 9: So the game is you play rock paper scissors and
Speaker 9: the winner is the winner of the last name that
Speaker 9: you the wedding couple takes home.
Speaker 1: Right, So you can do it at the wedding. You
Speaker 1: can do it now, which saves you're doing it at
Speaker 1: the wedding now.
Speaker 4: We been doing it at the wedding's high stakes. It's far better.
Speaker 1: It's stakes that is. There needs to be a willingness. Gaby,
Speaker 1: you've kept elgood.
Speaker 4: I have kept my last name, and you know I
Speaker 4: would have loved Okay. When I first saw this, I
Speaker 4: was like, I love this. This would have been great.
Speaker 4: I would have definitely done this. And then I thought
Speaker 4: more about it and I was like, no, because if
Speaker 4: I lost, I would have refused to change my names.
Speaker 4: I would have loved it if I.
Speaker 1: Won, right, Yeah, I would have loved this. So my
Speaker 1: husband became an elder. I get that back and go
Speaker 1: either way. Mate.
Speaker 4: We did have a robust conversation about who got their
Speaker 4: last name for the kids, and maybe this could have
Speaker 4: solved that because we were still arguing, not arguing. We're
Speaker 4: still having a conversation about it even after Olivia was
Speaker 4: born as to which last name she would get, and
Speaker 4: the decision we came to, and I think rock paper
Speaker 4: Scissors would have been a far better idea because the
Speaker 4: decision we came to was if we had a girl,
Speaker 4: it would be Neb's last name, and if we had
Speaker 4: a boy, it would be my last name because there's
Speaker 4: no boy Elgoods in our family, so that last name
Speaker 4: may potentially die out very quickly.
Speaker 1: Some thinking there.
Speaker 4: And so then we had a girl and I was
Speaker 4: really devastated that she wouldn't have my last name, and
Speaker 4: I regretted that conversation.
Speaker 1: I don't think this game is a good idea unless
Speaker 1: either of you, you know, don't care.
Speaker 4: You both can't care, you both both have to be
Speaker 4: really blase and go don't care. We'll just pick one.
Speaker 4: Let's go.
Speaker 1: Chelsea is one of four girls in your family? Or
Speaker 1: with his last name Boothman, as there've been in a
Speaker 1: discussion about whether or not there'll be a name flip,
Speaker 1: let's just apply it to you and Jared. What's his
Speaker 1: last name?
Speaker 4: Thatcher?
Speaker 1: Thatcher? Yeah, that's a fantastic.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and my middle name is Margaretta.
Speaker 1: Do that, Chelsea Margaret Thatcher.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's so bad.
Speaker 1: You're the wrong personal terrible. Yeah, you've got a lot
Speaker 1: to gain by changing. Yeah, I mean, and I know
Speaker 1: your dad listens. We love the last name Boothman.
Speaker 4: It's a fantastic, but it's not Margaret Brouthman isn't a
Speaker 4: famous politician.
Speaker 10: No, no, And he didn't know this combination of things
Speaker 10: was going to happen all these years down the track,
Speaker 10: So you would change to margaritecture? Yes, yes, okay, all right,
Speaker 10: so see people, you guys care, But clearly this couple,
Speaker 10: this isn't just a hypothetical. This is making news today
Speaker 10: because a couple at the wedding in front of all
Speaker 10: the guests is gone.
Speaker 1: It is on rock paper scissors. We're about to decide
Speaker 1: on missus.
Speaker 4: Rock or rock papers.
Speaker 9: They're calling it row Chambeau.
Speaker 1: That's funny, though, use let's go all right, let's let's
Speaker 1: see how this couple goes here in front of all
Speaker 1: the guests. I assume that it doesn't mean that much
Speaker 1: to either of them to do it in such trivial way.
Speaker 1: I don't know if one of the guests has got
Speaker 1: this voice or this has happened in the UK, but
Speaker 1: I like it's a great point, mate. It's rock paper Rochambeau.
Speaker 1: Here we go, one, two, three, al right, round one
Speaker 1: and he's gone.
Speaker 4: The sus must be must be doing best of three.
Speaker 1: It's always roe sham bo best of three. That's what
Speaker 1: it means. It means all right, it's old mate, he's
Speaker 1: a peer, and no one cares if you've got a
Speaker 1: normal last name. There's nothing to be gained or lost
Speaker 1: between the pierces and the hunters.
Speaker 4: Except.
Speaker 1: It's tight. He went for a rock, she went for
Speaker 1: the paper. This is It comes down to this, alright,
Speaker 1: around three, she's done and he becomes a hunter. And
Speaker 1: he went for the paper, she went for the scissors.
Speaker 1: And he doesn't care. He's just married the love of
Speaker 1: his life.
Speaker 9: You have to keep playing it so we can see
Speaker 9: his reaction.
Speaker 1: Okay, hat, he's disappointed. He's so disappointed, he's he doesn't care.
Speaker 4: He does, He absolutely cares. And do you know what,
Speaker 4: I really wish they'd done pan the camera around to
Speaker 4: see his family, because I bet you his parents care.
Speaker 4: My my nana in law, my nanner in law. We
Speaker 4: made a pack that we would never tell her that
Speaker 4: I didn't change my name because she would be so upset.
Speaker 4: And so she sends me mail and I am missus Andrews.
Speaker 1: Wants trying to like recruit for the Andrews team.
Speaker 4: What does It's so old school that for me not
Speaker 4: changing my name would be such a thing for her
Speaker 4: that I'm like you, only you know you're older. You
Speaker 4: don't need that argument in your life.
Speaker 1: As of twenty twenty three, in Australia, seventy three percent
Speaker 1: of women still change their name, so it's still the norm.
Speaker 1: But I'd like to see more of this. I want
Speaker 1: to see more of this I'm more weddings if we
Speaker 1: are rock paper scissoring.
Speaker 3: God and Gabby versus the world.
Speaker 1: Beautiful start to the end of the week, and made
Speaker 1: even better by the news that we are one step
Speaker 1: closer to returning to the NBL. I'm assuming part of that.
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, it's a good assumption.
Speaker 1: But it makes sense today, Darcy, what's the big news.
Speaker 6: So the NBL is having a blitz at the Aas
Speaker 6: Arena in late August. They'll have across five days, all
Speaker 6: ten teams playing twice, I believe.
Speaker 4: Yeah, two games per day for five days.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so very exciting. It's the first time in a while.
Speaker 6: I don't know how long since that's happened, but Andrew
Speaker 6: bart says he's very excited himself.
Speaker 1: All Right, Wednesday, August twenty seven at the Wildcats. So
Speaker 1: that's going to produce a Chelsea here. We know that
Speaker 1: she's the West Coast Eagle. You guys over there, you're
Speaker 1: right into the Wildcats because you win a lot of championships, right.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Like there's a lot of home games in Perth
Speaker 9: at rac Arena.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, you're making the big track.
Speaker 4: Across the debut debut game, and.
Speaker 1: So you're against the Tigers. They call themselves Melbourne United
Speaker 1: now but they'll always be the Tigers to me. The
Speaker 1: thirty six is from Adelaide and the Illawarrahawks. It's a
Speaker 1: great thing about the NBL. You've got a couple of
Speaker 1: provincial size, yes, cities that have teams in the comp
Speaker 1: and illawar I've always been a great team. And so
Speaker 1: that's the double header on the Wednesday. Then the Bullets,
Speaker 1: the famous Brisbane Bullets against the Sydney Kings.
Speaker 4: Sidney Kings were my team after the.
Speaker 1: Cannons were that. Yes, well they were a glamour team
Speaker 1: and they still are with the same colors as the
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Lakers. And of course the young fellow from
Speaker 1: Can has been playing for them for the last a
Speaker 1: little while, Alex Towey. He'll be picked up in the
Speaker 1: NBA draft today. Sat a couple of great seasons with
Speaker 1: Brian gorsh in there, who was the Australian coach, and
Speaker 1: he's got him ready for the biggest of big league.
Speaker 1: So we'll give you news about that across the day.
Speaker 1: And then on that Thursday, August twenty eighth, Can mckenn's
Speaker 1: got kicked out of the comp for a hot minute,
Speaker 1: as so many of us have. Like us, they were
Speaker 1: then turned up again for a couple of seasons, and
Speaker 1: then they got back I wonder if that was a
Speaker 1: round COVID. They got let back in. And then the newcomers,
Speaker 1: the famous Tasmanian jack jumpers. That's going to be cool.
Speaker 4: What's that name from jack jumpers?
Speaker 1: Is it like the jack jumper? Is it a bug?
Speaker 4: Is it?
Speaker 1: I don't know what's a jack jumper? Is it? Is
Speaker 1: it a marsupial?
Speaker 6: I'm going to say it's a bug jack jumper.
Speaker 1: It's something down there. Anyway, they're a great team. And
Speaker 1: then the old Magic, the now Southeast Melbourne Phoenix. The
Speaker 1: kiweeds are coming over. The Breakers will play, and then
Speaker 1: it's Hawks and Wildcats again. What is it an It's
Speaker 1: an ant? Is it a jack jumper? Not particularly leaf,
Speaker 1: but they're very strong. Ants can relative to their size.
Speaker 4: Yeah, can hold like eighty time said body weight or something.
Speaker 1: So that's going to go on for a bit, and Gabbie,
Speaker 1: I wonder, this is the final chance for you to
Speaker 1: have a redo in life after As a little girl,
Speaker 1: all you wanted to do, all you wanted to do
Speaker 1: growing up was to dance at halftime.
Speaker 4: I did.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 4: My family a huge basketball family. So herb mcgeachen played
Speaker 4: for the Cannons for fourteen years and his son's played
Speaker 4: basketball with my sisters and the road Runners and yeah,
Speaker 4: and one of his sons coached, and it was a
Speaker 4: whole thing. So massive basketball family, and we'd go to
Speaker 4: every Cannons game. But I was really young and into dancing.
Speaker 4: I was a black sheep of my family. And we'd
Speaker 4: go and I'd be sitting there and I was so young.
Speaker 4: We'd go in the torrago and I'd be with my
Speaker 4: dad and the halftime performers would dance, and afterwards he'd
Speaker 4: look at me and go, what do you rate them?
Speaker 4: And I'd give him a school out of ten, I'm
Speaker 4: like seven, giving him a like nine point five. But
Speaker 4: it was always the one dance school in Cambra. It
Speaker 4: was Legs Dance School that always had the honor of
Speaker 4: doing the halftime performance. But I was at the Bung
Speaker 4: Indoor Dance School, so I never got that chance, and
Speaker 4: I was so envious because I just wanted to be
Speaker 4: out there.
Speaker 1: Did the Bung Indoor Dance School ever get the call up?
Speaker 1: When the Green Machine were playing its seafe. No, you
Speaker 1: never right, that would have been nice of them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we never can for anything. So I don't know
Speaker 4: if that was a thing because of our skill or
Speaker 4: just our location could have been either. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, we can't go back, all right, So I'm hearing
Speaker 1: you want more time. So you're saying, if the Cannons
Speaker 1: are let back into the camp, if the okay, yep, right,
Speaker 1: you will dance at half time?
Speaker 4: Sure, if that is something that gets the Cannons.
Speaker 1: Over the line, Oh this is this is Bolsted the
Speaker 1: bid all of a sudden, hasn't it.
Speaker 4: I'm not doing it to the Blitts. I can tell
Speaker 4: you that right now. But if the Cannons get back, yes, right,
Speaker 4: if not even game for the Blitz, No, it has
Speaker 4: to be the Cannons.
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying that it can only be
Speaker 1: the Lifelong Dream has made halftime performance for the Cannons. Okay,
Speaker 1: I wish I could just confirm this right now. You can't,
Speaker 1: but it's definitely a work in progress. The NBL turns
Speaker 1: its attention back to.
Speaker 4: Bars, like, well, if Gabby's going to dance, we got.
Speaker 1: It to we go to this. I wasn't even trying
Speaker 1: to make this happen, but now got to do it.
Speaker 1: I'm going to make a whole lot more effort that
Speaker 1: I have there. The can bearn who's been scammed is Gabby,
Speaker 1: and this is a concern for all of us. However,
Speaker 1: you reckon we all would have formed for the same thing,
Speaker 1: which I reckon alarming.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if everyone would have, but you
Speaker 4: would have definitely.
Speaker 1: Well, I think we all would have.
Speaker 4: So it's my wedding anniversary on Sunday, and I had
Speaker 4: bought something for my husband because it's a leather theme
Speaker 4: for the third anniversary.
Speaker 1: So I bought him.
Speaker 4: I don't even so I had. You know, every wedding
Speaker 4: anniversary has a thing that you're meant to buy a
Speaker 4: gift around go on. So third wedding is the traditional
Speaker 4: is leather, but the modern is crystal or glass. So
Speaker 4: he's got it easy. He can just get me some
Speaker 4: scrotsky jewelry so.
Speaker 1: Easy you can't believe it a gift.
Speaker 4: So I had to get creative and trying to figure
Speaker 4: out what I could get him that was leather all right. Anyway,
Speaker 4: I bought the gift, but I knew it wasn't going
Speaker 4: to get here in time. And I saw something else
Speaker 4: that popped up on my Instagram feed that was also
Speaker 4: in leather, and I was like, all right, I'll quickly
Speaker 4: get that because it's same day delivery and at least
Speaker 4: i'll have something to give him on Sunday until the
Speaker 4: real gift comes.
Speaker 5: Goodness.
Speaker 4: So I bought it, and I'm pretty sure they've taken
Speaker 4: my money and run. I don't think I'm getting this
Speaker 4: gift because they said same day delivery. I have had
Speaker 4: no confirmation that it's been sent or I've got a
Speaker 4: confirmation of purchase. That's it. And then radio silence. So
Speaker 4: what it was is this ad came up on my
Speaker 4: feed of this cool little leather wallet. It's like just
Speaker 4: for your cards for nothing else. That's really slim line,
Speaker 4: but it has a cutout in it in the shape
Speaker 4: of Batman's mask, so when you slide your license into it,
Speaker 4: your face is Batman's.
Speaker 1: This is the greatest gift.
Speaker 4: Herul is thing, right, and so I'm like, he'll love this.
Speaker 4: At the same day of delivery, I'll have it. Can
Speaker 4: he can get it on Sunday and then the real
Speaker 4: gift can come next week. Perfect so I bought it,
Speaker 4: and I could do it with Apple pay, which I
Speaker 4: feel like is a bit of a safeguard because they
Speaker 4: don't get your details then because it's through the third party.
Speaker 4: So I was like, all right, we're good, we're safe.
Speaker 4: They're not stealing my card and hacking my bank account.
Speaker 4: We're all good. So I did it. But I'm pretty
Speaker 4: sure they've just taken that. It was eighty dollars.
Speaker 1: More than Batman exactly.
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure they've just taken that eighty dollars and
Speaker 4: they're like thank you and moving on.
Speaker 1: And I think I'm getting it, but Apple Pay, I'll
Speaker 1: get it back. Oh it's like PayPal, like they'll give
Speaker 1: you the money back and then they'll chase them up,
Speaker 1: not neither. You'll get this. This will be all right,
Speaker 1: don't talk down Batman Leather Wallets.
Speaker 4: It's been four days and I've heard nothing. So I'll
Speaker 4: report back after our holiday and let you know if
Speaker 4: Batman Wallet came or not.
Speaker 1: Is every license in the world, does it position the
Speaker 1: person's frie That's.
Speaker 4: Another thing I don't know. And then I've looked at
Speaker 4: the reviews and they're like, oh, it's not great quality.
Speaker 4: I'm like eighty bucks a better be good quality.
Speaker 1: You don't respond to a review by going, well, you'd
Speaker 1: better be wrong.
Speaker 3: Not in Addy versus the world.
Speaker 1: And this is the moment Darcy's last news chat with
Speaker 1: US seventy five shows. Darcy, congratulations seventy five. Today is
Speaker 1: your seventy fifth show.
Speaker 4: And only three that you were in isolation for.
Speaker 1: Oh well, well, well remember the time Darcy started the
Speaker 1: shift and he sounded sick and I freaked out and
Speaker 1: we had to build another studio very quickly, and then
Speaker 1: you were stuck there for a week. What a memory
Speaker 1: that was. What are the other big memories from the
Speaker 1: last seventy five shows with us?
Speaker 6: I don't even know where to pinpoint it. I've just
Speaker 6: had so much fun since the start of this show,
Speaker 6: since you guys started in feb I believe we were
Speaker 6: talking about before, but it's just, yeah, the most fun
Speaker 6: I've definitely had at Amplify. And thank you so much
Speaker 6: to both of you for giving me this opportunity, because
Speaker 6: it's just been awesome. Every morning, it's much easy waking up.
Speaker 1: Well, it's very kind to say, Spoker, and we feel
Speaker 1: very privileged to have had you. I remember Kraichi twenty
Speaker 1: three years ago I started my commercial radio. This sounds
Speaker 1: more dramatic with this music, but I started my commercial
Speaker 1: radio career and we had a fantastic newsman of the
Speaker 1: Central West out there in Clint Brannigan, and I didn't
Speaker 1: know a different world. I thought that breakfast radio always
Speaker 1: had a news person integrated into their show.
Speaker 4: Not the case.
Speaker 1: Well, then I got the call up to Townsville and
Speaker 1: I learned real fast, No, no, you don't get that, and.
Speaker 4: Not many places do anymore, at least no.
Speaker 1: And I've been insistent ever since, from going to Townsville
Speaker 1: and they're ninety six a m. In Perth to always
Speaker 1: have someone from the newsroom integrated into the program. And
Speaker 1: so we were very privileged because it is a privilege,
Speaker 1: certainly not a rite, when we came here to have
Speaker 1: you as part of the SHOWMATEE so seventy five. Congratulations,
Speaker 1: you're off to to set up a new home and
Speaker 1: life in Mexico. I know you think it's only for
Speaker 1: six months, but I want to live. I want to
Speaker 1: live vicariously through an adventure that takes you right around
Speaker 1: the world. So I've got someone to visit when I
Speaker 1: go on these you know, these international holidays.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we can go to the theme parks. If there
Speaker 6: is any in Mexico.
Speaker 1: Any in Mexico, Darcy's gonna find out. I'll do my research,
Speaker 1: investigative reporting. Why do I feel like we can go
Speaker 1: on spring break? Spring bring gave Jerusys gain and so
Speaker 1: I think I want I want us to focus on
Speaker 1: a story that you that stays with you. There's your
Speaker 1: last story that we cover together, and so every time,
Speaker 1: wherever you are in the world, I want you to
Speaker 1: think about tomatoes. Because there is a tomato shortage that's
Speaker 1: about to hit camera and I think it's important that
Speaker 1: we cover it.
Speaker 6: It's absolutely devastating. So there's wild weather in Queensland and
Speaker 6: South Australian Victoria have a new tomato vine rush, which
Speaker 6: means there's a shortage and prices are set to go up.
Speaker 4: What's the virus? Because I'd be happy to eat.
Speaker 1: It right, probably even just.
Speaker 4: Looks a bit weird, let's still eat it.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry when planning the show, I didn't really think
Speaker 1: about the significance of the last news story that we
Speaker 1: would do together. No, I'm happy with this, but anytime
Speaker 1: we need to get to the supermarket to pay extra
Speaker 1: for something.
Speaker 4: It's a big story.
Speaker 1: Well we're going to cover it and ed you.
Speaker 4: Will see tomatoes everywhere you go in your travel. So
Speaker 4: this is a great last memory because every time you
Speaker 4: go to a Mexican supermarket and there's a tomato, you'll
Speaker 4: be like, no, I'll.
Speaker 6: Just send the tomato photos to the Roden Gappy Instagram.
Speaker 1: Page every week.
Speaker 4: I love it.
Speaker 1: What a group chat we're going to have. We might
Speaker 1: share screenshots of the group chat with everybody. Yes, thank you, mate, congratulations,
Speaker 1: well done, good luck, be very safe while you're over
Speaker 1: on the other side of the planet, and we will
Speaker 1: all live vicariously through you when we look forward to
Speaker 1: chatting to you on your adventures on the show.
Speaker 6: That's all, and thank you to the both of you
Speaker 6: as well.
Speaker 1: That is our pleasure. You're really honest around the mum fails,
Speaker 1: and to be honest, your strike rate's very successful. I
Speaker 1: think we're on the up to mumfail three so far.
Speaker 4: For twent Sure there's been more, but they haven't been
Speaker 4: entertaining fails, so I haven't bothered to share them.
Speaker 1: Hashtag mum fail three entertaining ones? Is this the first
Speaker 1: Dad failed from your husband? This year, the first.
Speaker 4: One that he would probably not be mad at me
Speaker 4: for telling, like you do, parent fails every day, and
Speaker 4: it would get very boring to talk about it in
Speaker 4: those kind of details, So only bring the ones that
Speaker 4: are half entertaining. But the dad foil that happened yesterday.
Speaker 4: I bought new shoes for our daughter. There was a
Speaker 4: big end of financial year sale and she was growing
Speaker 4: out of her current shoes and the ones she has
Speaker 4: at the moment, they're great. They're really flexy, but they're.
Speaker 1: Not very warm.
Speaker 4: So I wanted to get similar shoes that were warmer
Speaker 4: the winter, obviously, so I got these ones online. They
Speaker 4: were really cool. They were like pink sneakers with like
Speaker 4: a velcrow little strap so she can try to put
Speaker 4: them on herself. She's in a she's starting the adult
Speaker 4: myself kind of face, like yesterday. I had to hold
Speaker 4: her hands while she put the shoe on the ground
Speaker 4: and then tried to slip her foot into it while
Speaker 4: standing so she puts her shooes on. Took twenty minutes,
Speaker 4: but we kind of got there the.
Speaker 1: Part where you have to let them do things, oh
Speaker 1: and gain their independence and times longer. Anyway, it's fun stuff.
Speaker 4: It really is. You gotta let them do it anyway.
Speaker 4: So we got these new shoes in the mail. I
Speaker 4: got really excited about it. I unpackaged them and they
Speaker 4: looked great, and my husband got home and I was
Speaker 4: showing him. And when I was showing him these cool
Speaker 4: little pink sneakers, Olivia saw them and she loves pink.
Speaker 4: I think I've really rummed off on it when it
Speaker 4: comes to that, and she was like, yeah, I want
Speaker 4: to put them on, and so we wanted to make
Speaker 4: sure they fit and they've grabbed them and luckily she
Speaker 4: was not in there i'll do it myself moment. So
Speaker 4: she was allowing him to try to put them on
Speaker 4: her and he's trying to jam her foot in there,
Speaker 4: and she's like this is this is not this doesn't
Speaker 4: feel good, and he's like I'll be fine once everyone.
Speaker 4: And she's like squirming and he's like, oh, you know,
Speaker 4: she's just getting anty. It's fine. He's like trying, and
Speaker 4: it was going on for a minute until she finally
Speaker 4: cracked it and was like absolutely not, I am not
Speaker 4: wearing these shoes. Get him out of my sight. Dad,
Speaker 4: and I pick up the shoe and I'm like the
Speaker 4: paper is still in the tona go on. She's trying
Speaker 4: to shove these shoes on and I were going anywhere,
Speaker 4: and he thought it was just because she's got a
Speaker 4: bit of a high foot, like there's really got to
Speaker 4: get him in there otherwise, like you gotta get the
Speaker 4: heel up and literally.
Speaker 1: A physical barrier stopping them going on. But on behalf
Speaker 1: of Dad's yeah, we do that versus the world. So
Speaker 1: I have had one eye on a story that Channel
Speaker 1: nine have been covering. They parked one of their journalists
Speaker 1: next to a roundabout and not in camera. No, And
Speaker 1: that's why I bring it up because during the break
Speaker 1: just then I was able to get to the bottom
Speaker 1: of it. Anyone who has a crack at our world's
Speaker 1: largest roundabout with the traffic lights that everyone goes, it's
Speaker 1: the worst round about in Australia, Well, well, well we
Speaker 1: do not have the patch on the roundabout that has
Speaker 1: been making news today. This will go viral around the world.
Speaker 1: I'm ashamed to say Channel nine have been covering it.
Speaker 1: And if you haven't seen it yet this morning, instead
Speaker 1: of a circle in the middle, it's a diamond and
Speaker 1: it makes no sense. We'll think about that so it's
Speaker 1: fine if on the sides of the diamond that have
Speaker 1: the less angular points, but when you go to get
Speaker 1: around the pointy ends of the diamonds, you're doing a
Speaker 1: hard turn, and not everyone's car has a turning circle
Speaker 1: that allows you to do that, people having to stop
Speaker 1: and revert to.
Speaker 4: A three point turn around the roundabout.
Speaker 1: Correct. Alright, this is Carl's take on it this morning.
Speaker 2: Have a look at this bang around about in one
Speaker 2: of the many brilliant solutions to traffic congestion on our roads.
Speaker 1: Check it out. Check it out.
Speaker 2: The Pool City Council has taken chaos to a whole
Speaker 2: new level. And for more I'm joined by Liverpool City
Speaker 2: councilor Peter Restevski.
Speaker 1: Okay, ten points to Liverpool City Council. They've obviously embarrassed themselves.
Speaker 1: This is a disaster. The last thing anyone in their
Speaker 1: right mind does is show up to this interview. That
Speaker 1: said anyone in their right mind would have never built
Speaker 1: a diamond shaped roundabout. So he's shown up in camera.
Speaker 1: What's he doing in camera?
Speaker 4: Don't give us a bad name. We've got the good
Speaker 4: roundabout camera.
Speaker 1: He's from Liverpool though, he's just here for some reason.
Speaker 2: Get him out in camera, get a pete. Nice to
Speaker 2: see you this morning. Congratulations. Your council has built Australia's
Speaker 2: worst round about.
Speaker 6: Yes, it's quite embarrassing and quite ironically, I'm in the
Speaker 6: camber for the Australian Local Government Conference.
Speaker 1: What do you mean ironic? Mate, is here for a conference?
Speaker 1: So the Australian Local Government Conference. You've brought shame to
Speaker 1: your city and by virtue of just being here, all right, Well,
Speaker 1: everyone's going to be absolutely taken a Micky out of
Speaker 1: him at that conference in the capitol today.
Speaker 4: We have a roundabout almost like that in Bamendor.
Speaker 1: That's fine, that's new South Walest Mate, that's absolutely fine.
Speaker 1: You do silly staff over there all day
