1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:05,399
Speaker 1: We've just been swapping festival recommendations with the wonderful Umbilical

00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,879
Speaker 1: is here. Distraction, the distraction.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 2: You're going to say disgusting discussing.

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: Costraction, it's that the Pleasure Garden from until I should

6
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: say February eleven.

7
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 3: Tickets are through fringe world, dot com, dot you.

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 4: It is a bit discussion, is a bit distraction.

9
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 5: It is a distraction.

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,319
Speaker 2: But there there is a moment in the show where

11
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:34,919
Speaker 2: we turn We've got a lot of cameras and there's

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: green screens. People are looking at a big screen because

13
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 2: they're distracted. You're coming to see two live people performing,

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 2: but you can't because you've been you're distracted like you

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 2: have been with your screen.

16
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 4: You watch the pole to see all the screen or.

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: The screens, but we look at the backgrounds and four

18
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: grounds of special effects up there, so we look much

19
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 2: prettier up there. Oh okay, right, But some of the

20
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: times we turn the camera on the audience and don't worry.

21
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 5: It's the safest. You don't have to do anything.

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: It's the safest audiencearticipation because we put like you know

23
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 2: that Nina Conti, like we put mouths over your face

24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: and things like that. But there's one show where we

25
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 2: explode people's heads and a few we were.

26
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 4: In It's a Lucky Lottery.

27
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 5: And we're speaking of just speaking of Germany.

28
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 2: We're in Germany last week and last month's and I

29
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 2: saw a baby in the audience.

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 5: Somebody was holding a baby.

31
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: So I made the baby talk and exploded the baby.

32
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: And then like a few days after that, there was

33
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: a canine, a support animal.

34
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: Support support in the front rows, in the front row.

35
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: So I brought the camera down the audience and the

36
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: titles already come and the audience member whose head explodes

37
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: the audience, just can you do in the audience? When

38
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: when the when the camera went down? I did it,

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: and it's it's on Instagram.

40
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 6: You want to future in politics, you have to kiss babies,

41
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 6: not exploding.

42
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 5: That's that's what they going wrong.

43
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 4: Fantastic.

44
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: So basically it's a case of if you want screen time,

45
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: here is your screen time.

46
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: Please bring support animals, Please bring it with. We haven't

47
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,120

Speaker 5: was a grandfather.

53

Speaker 2: It is an all ages show even though things do

54
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 2: it sounds discussing things to explode, but it's very family

55
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: friendly experience, right and and we've had a six year

59
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,480

Speaker 5: And I'm in that memory.

65
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,440

Speaker 2: I keep saying last last month, but I think it

94
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,240

96
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,800

Speaker 4: Yes, not as far as they're concerned.

99
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,000

100
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 8: and I've forgotten my name.

101
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 4: Has that ever happened to you? Or is it just me?

102
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 4: What's my name? What's my Oh it's come back. I

103
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 4: took about five seconds for my name to come back.

104
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember because I used to, you know, like

105
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: read news and if my name wasn't written at the top,

106
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: there would be a moment at I mean, you know,

107
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 1: it's it's because you're sixteen degrees and blah blah blah

Speaker 1: blah blah, and I'm I'm Channel seven.

109
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:49,200

Speaker 7: Implus you forget.

111
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it is weird how it can happen now,

112
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: you guys, let's you.

113
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: Are the ogs of festival.

114
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: Let's face it, you and performing together since the late

115
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: eighties at least, do not do.

116
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 4: You remember?

117
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 3: It seems like you've never got tired of each other.

118
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 8: Well as we're kind of children, really, there's a there's

119
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 8: a healthy level of immaturity that persists to this day,

120
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 8: and that's where there's kind of the creativity comes from that,

121
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 8: just messing around, sort of playing cowboys. Not the people

122
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 8: play cowboys anymore, but that's that's where it came from.

123
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: And first, we don't see each other all of our

124
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 2: shows are smashed together. So we do, you know, eight

125
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 2: countries in a month, and then we don't see each

126
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 2: other for a month and then we.

127
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 5: See each other. So that's this is the first time

128
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 5: I've seen Shane for.

129
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 4: It's a little bit so yeah.

130
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 2: So youselve you like the mustache mussache is you need

131
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: a little bit of wax on.

132
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 5: You've got wax on one side that you're meant to do.

133
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 4: It's actually a fake it off. It's a nice salad

134
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 4: that would be nice.

135
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 7: Coming to the river end of the way.

136
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 4: Cabaret named Louis.

137
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 2: Albadore, and he good wax it back so he could

138
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: done faster faster, wouldn't he.

139
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: You're just talking about performing in Europe and places all

140
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: around the world. Do you find that physical comedy is

141
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: a real universal ye draw card.

142
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 5: Except for where is that Belgium? Belgium?

143
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,039

144
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: let you know how much they love the show. But

145
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 2: during the show they're a very reserved crowd and they.

146
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 4: Don't make they're too polite to laugh any noise.

147
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 5: And so you do the whole show and you think

148
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 5: are we dying?

149
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: Are we?

150
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:38,840

152
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: You know, Koreans. The Koreans weren't even that bad. The

Speaker 7: and also.

156
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,080

00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: we do like you know, a month in the Netherlands,

158
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 2: which is about to do something. Actually, and the closer

159
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 2: you get to Belgium, the quieter the audiences get.

160
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,000

Speaker 2: cut his lip.

177
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 8: And that's when we were doing, you know, one of

178
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 8: the shows with the noises, the sound effects. I jumped

179
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 8: my knee hit the mic which my lip and so

180
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 8: I spent the last five thing five minutes of the

181
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 8: show no trying to suck while making.

182
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: And there's nothing funny about blood. There's nothing. I got

183
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 2: him to leave stage, there's nothing. Yeah, it happened in Belgium,

184
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 2: paradedic Belgium, when we we were in ironed Hooven in

185
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 2: the Netherlands, when we I've cut this eye open three times,

186
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 2: once at school when I hit a wall lucky, and

187
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 2: then another time on a fallback speaker in Brisbane when

188
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: I got four stitches there, and then in Eindhoven. Shane

189
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: and I just before the show, the show went down.

190
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: There's too much smoke on stage. We were running around

191
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: trying to fix it and we ran into each other

192
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: in the darkness.

193
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 4: It flited like twenty seconds before the curtain was due

194
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 4: to come up.

195
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's complete still, complete darkness, and you're feeling your

196
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 8: head and you feel this liquid.

197
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 4: Yeah that's not sweat, No, it's not sweat.

198
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: Man, we ran the kilometer down to the dressing room,

199
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 2: and you know, they said, no, there's going to be

200
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: no show. We need it, We need a hospital, and

201
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 2: they put us in a car. They went to the hospital,

202
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: but the hospital was closed.

203
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, that one was closed. They had to do the

204
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 4: next hospital.

205
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 5: How bizarre.

206
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 8: But you would have easily found your way down to

207
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 8: the dressing room after that because of the blood trail.

208
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 5: Yes, there was something funny about that.

209
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: Because the technician had to go on and tell the

210
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 2: crowd that the show had been finished and there was

211
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: some six more blood I hope, yes true. Excuse me,

212
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 2: but sorry, there's been an accident and the show has

213
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 2: been canceled. And they all started, they all started laughing

214
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: and then just stayed in their seats and it came

215
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 2: out and told them again, and they laughed and laughed

216
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: and stayed in their seats. And it wasn't until they

217
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 2: heard a heard an ambulance and they went, oh, maybe.

218
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:44,839
