1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:01,680 Speaker 1: Well and Woody podcast. 2 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 2: Minni. We're just taking calls on what you used a 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 2: vegetable for aside from eating, obviously, and I'm going to 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: be honest with you, pretty disappointing responses. But the reason 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 2: we asked that question is because a man called Adam Fukuerson. 6 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 2: I'm going to throw to Adam rights. We are we 7 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,280 Speaker 2: saying your last name correctly there. 8 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: Adam, Yeah, I means you say it wrong. It does 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: sound like a squear word. So you've done well, Thank 10 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: you mate. 11 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 2: We are live on radio, so we are really walking 12 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: the tight rope when we say funks, which is. 13 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 1: Last probably say you just call me Adam. 14 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 2: Then, yeah, Adam, I've actually cunning farker. I've actually thought 15 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: of a quite an appropriate nickname for you. I call 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: you the pump King, because well, you tell everyone pump King. 17 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: What have you just done? 18 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: Well, there's a bit of a story to it. To 19 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: a made of mine grew an enormous pumpkins. So I 20 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: actually went around a certain when it was growing and 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: put stuff on Facebook. Fair to say, this guy, Mark 22 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: Peacock put in a lot more work than I, So 23 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: he spent four months go on this thing and it's 24 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: a bohemoth. The we had to use a tractor with 25 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: forks to get it onto a youth to take. He 26 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: took it up to the Sydney Needs To Show and 27 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: he won the blue ribbon up there. So it's four 28 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: and seven kilos, which is the size of a horse. 29 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: Oh my, the size of a horse. Wow. 30 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: Well it's the weight of a horse. So it's yeah, 31 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: his big nugget. So it's imagine and it's big orange thing. 32 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: It looks like Chuck Norris's testicle, I think so allegially. 33 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 1: So I've heard what what I've done when I saw 34 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: this thing and said what are you going to do 35 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: when you finished? And he goes, well, I don't know, 36 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: and I asked him I a good paddle and he 37 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: thought that was a great audea. So that that's what happened. 38 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: So you you had the idea to so you obviously have. 39 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: Did you hollow the big boy out? 40 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yep. So he actually hollowed that out with 41 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: his dad. Because the seeds are fifty dollars each, so 42 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: it's sort of like a Melbourne Cup winning horse and 43 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: you've got foal so's to sell the files off later. 44 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: And he doesn't trust me with that amount of money, 45 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: I guess. So yeah, he did all the hard work 46 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: and all I did was scribbled Cinderella on the side 47 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: of it, hopped in and paddle it down the river. 48 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: Wow wow, slide down, hopped in and puddled it down 49 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 2: the river. 50 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: My lord? 51 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 2: So which which whereabounds in particular? Were you Adam? 52 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? So we're in Tumid in New South Wales. We're 53 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: right at the bottom of the snowy hydro scheme. It's 54 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: our river. Barregon is one of the most beautiful rivers 55 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: in Australia. It's very clear, but with that it comes 56 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: it's very fast and very cold. So paddle it for 57 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: a mile down that river, I mean an hour. Was 58 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: she in it? Very slimy, so it's very it's not 59 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: a pleasant feeling at all, but yeah, it didn't didn't 60 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: handle it all well. It's like a very heavy, fat 61 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: inner tube the sort of paddle down the river, but 62 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: very stable and did you stay dry like fairly? I 63 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: had all of the goose. It's his slimy stuff on 64 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: the inside of the side of a marrow. So yeah, 65 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: it was pretty growth. 66 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 2: This has captured the nation, mate, This is making national news. 67 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: I mean you're on our radio show right now because 68 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 2: it's the talk. What were people's reactions like though when 69 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: they saw you on the side of the river there, 70 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: when you were floating down inside of humongous Pumpkin. 71 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: Well, I put a post up on Friday because my 72 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: wife said you probably should put it on face. I 73 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: would have really basic like tomorrow, I'm going to paddle 74 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: a bit of first person a paddle of Pumpkin and 75 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: the Tyne River at eleven o'clock. That was all I put. 76 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: We had more lights on that than I have friends, 77 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: so I knew something had gone wrong. But we rocked 78 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: on down to the river in the first vehicle I 79 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: saw was an Eblan, So I thought that had really 80 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: gone wrong. Mark reckons there about a thousand people there, 81 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: which is incredible in it down with only six thousand. 82 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: All right, So this is the maiden voyage of this 83 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: humongous Pumpkin, I mean, Adam slash Pumpkin. I'm keen to 84 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: really test this thing out. Do you still have the 85 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: hollowed at pumpkin in your position? 86 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: Well kind of so, because it's so big where we 87 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: where we pulled up, we had no way of moving it. 88 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: So you couldn't physically list it because it's so heavy. 89 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: So the end for for Cinderella was, Yeah, we cut 90 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: it up with an axe and put it in a 91 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: trailer and now it's feeding some cattle out at moreen 92 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: Law's farm. That's a shame. 93 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 2: Is there any chance you make the peacock could grow 94 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: another humongous pumpkin? Because I wouldn't mind seeing how this 95 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 2: thing goes on the open seas. 96 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: Good luck to make sure you get plenty of life, 97 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: is sure.
