Can you talk 110 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: about like, yeah, I know you touched on it briefly, 111 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: but actually having something practically beneficial that you can turn 112 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: out and look at. I mean, Woody and I are 113 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: really lucky that we've got the radio show every day, 114 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,559 Speaker 1: so that sort of just keeps us going. For people 115 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: that don't, that aren't Ryan Shelton, you know, who don't 116 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: have a platform, who haven't written with Hamish Nandy, who 117 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: can't put a podcast out or a website out in 118 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: getting noticed, what advice would you have for them to 119 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: sort of reinspire themselves to get creatively busy, Because I know, 120 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: particularly during lockdown and all that sort of thing, and 121 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: how isolated the world is right now, a lot of 122 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: people kind of feel a bit stuck in a right 123 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,679 Speaker 1: in that sense. 124 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a tough one because I think the thing 125 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: that I used to get really stuck in is trying 126 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 3: to make every idea the best idea in the world 127 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 3: and trying to kind of like and being like terrified 128 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 3: of releasing something if it wasn't perfected to within an 129 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 3: inch of its life or what I thought was perfected. 130 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 3: So I'd ended up doing draft after draft and kind 131 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 3: of and I think in hindsight, probably hiding behind that 132 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 3: process and the safety of not having to release something 133 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 3: meant that I kind of feel like, well, I can't 134 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 3: get criticized if I don't put it out there, so 135 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 3: I'll just keep working on it. So the thing that 136 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 3: really kind of I think liberated well reverse that and 137 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 3: allowed me to move past it was giving myself a 138 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 3: deadline which essentially allowed me to finish things. I was 139 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 3: forced to finish things. But finishing things is like the 140 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: best way to learn and get better or to like 141 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: just even to feel like creatively fulfilled. I think, because 142 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 3: once you finish something, that's a great thing about like radio, 143 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 3: especially daily radio, like what you guys do and I 144 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: did years ago. Is there's a disposability to it, which, 145 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: depending on the idea, can be incredibly frustrating, but I 146 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 3: think more often than not it's actually quite freeing. Yeah, 147 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: because you don't overthink things. You just do it and 148 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: you move on. 149 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: And the bar the bar actually can't be that high 150 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: because you just don't have that much time at the 151 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: end of the day when the MIC's are on. The 152 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: mics are on, and you just got to get on 153 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: with it. And I suppose that has a similar effect 154 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: with your monthly release of content. 155 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: Like yeah, at the end of the day, now that 156 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: you've set. 157 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: That for yourself, you can want it to be better 158 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: than it is as much as you like, but you 159 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: still got to share it. 160 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's like I love there's like a 161 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 3: Lawn Michael's quote, which I'm sure you guys know Lawn Michaels, 162 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 3: who's the creator and EP of Saturday Night Live and 163 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 3: every week they're on at eleven thirty pm live to 164 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: air across America, and he he's always said that like 165 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: we we don't stop right thember perfect. 166 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: You can tear a phrase, you can paraphrase if you 167 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: want it was the set was beautiful. 168 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: By the way we would have hard work. 169 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 5: We wouldn't have pulled you up as when I've got 170 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 5: incorrect Sheldon, We've got the quote in front of us. 171 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: It's something like I want to remember.

It's finished because 173 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: it's eleven thirty essentially, like you know, like you guys, 174 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 3: you get to show time and it's like, well, there's 175 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 3: a lot of stuff that we could work on it 176 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 3: for another hour, but there's no time, so let's just 177 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 3: do what we've got. Yeah, And then I know, I 178 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 3: often find that if whether I give myself like a 179 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 3: month or a week to do something, they're not going 180 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 3: to be that much different. Here's the time you have. 181 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's been. It's been a really good project 182 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 3: for me to be able to just like, in a 183 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 3: positive way, churn through a bunch of ideas and just 184 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: play as opposed to what I would have done, which 185 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 3: is probably sit on one or two ideas for ages 186 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 3: and then eventually get bored of it and move on 187 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: to something else. 188 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 5: And it like to me like it sounds stressed for 189 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 5: a lot of creative people or anyone with any project 190 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 5: would feel a bit stressed by the idea, but I 191 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 5: quite enjoyed. And this is a bit of a spoiler, 192 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 5: not too much of a spoiler, but one of your videos. 193 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 5: I love that you just leaned right into it, Ryan 194 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 5: And on the eleventh of the I forget which month 195 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 5: it was, but you just embraced the fact that you 196 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 5: made a video apologizing for the fact that you didn't 197 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 5: have an idea for that month, and that became the video. 198 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that was. That was pretty early on. And 199 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 3: sorry I'm about to name check a rival radio show, 200 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 3: but different timeslots, so not not a big deal. But 201 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 3: early on, like last year, I went on Fitsy and 202 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 3: Whipper on Nova in Sydney, and I'm a good and 203 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 3: Whippers a good friend of mine, like old friend of mine, 204 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 3: and and that video had just come out, and he 205 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 3: was like he got on and like sort of tried 206 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: to stitch me up and pull me up on the 207 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: fact that I hadn't made a video because he just 208 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 3: like he clearly like watched the first minute or two 209 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: and got bored and then didn't watch the rest. And 210 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 3: if you watch the video, you realize after all that 211 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 3: the video in itself is a video. It's like there's 212 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 3: a lot in it. Yeah, but that he is not 213 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: a patient man, guys, so he didn't he didn't give himself. 214 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: And a poor journalist go to say, you know, really 215 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: just an indicator of an awful radio show. 216 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 2: And there's a reason that. 217 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: Kyle and JACKIEO absolutely smoked him in the morning.
