Speaker 4: a proper price.

15
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,839

00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: So who plays, So it's just punters from the audience.

18
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 4: I get people out of the crowd and it's great

19
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 4: because see the ABC, they'revery diligent. So with the auditioning

20
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 4: process it's quite quite concentrated. Quite you got to jump

21
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 4: through a lot of hoops. Yes, with the live show

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 4: you turn up, there's only one hoop. It's called me.

23
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: And you can you can.

24
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 4: Just get up on stage and abuse me straight up?

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 2: Really?

26
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 4: How many shows invite people out of the crowd to

27
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 4: get on stage and call them an arshole?

28
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 3: Not many.

29
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 2: It's a free all for you as well, I imagine.

30
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 3: So hey, let's let's not focus on that.

31
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 4: Let's focus on let's focus on what the contestants can

32
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 4: say to me.

33
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: Will I be able to handle it? Maybe? Maybe, maybe not.

34
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: We're not going to do not try for a second.

35
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: You concern though a little bit obviously what happened earlier

36
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: in the week Will Smith's hitting comedians. You're now inviting

37
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: people in the crowd to walk up on stage.

38
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 4: Well, unlike Will Smith, I'm not worried because people who

39
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 4: come to my shows have a sense of humor, so

40
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 4: they're they're fine, They're comfortable with themselves. They can come up,

41
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 4: I can have a go at them. They can ever

42
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 4: go at me, and it's no problem. Well, we don't

43
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 4: smack each other in the face.

44
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 3: You know why. We're adults.

45
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, we are adults, and we're not in daycare.

46
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: Have you actually we actually spoke to Will Anderson earlier

47
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: this week just about people in the crowd showing like

48
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: physical taunts or effectively angry about what a comedian said.

49
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: Have you ever been physically threatened before?

50
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 3: Quite so.

51
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 4: There was someone in the front row at the comedy

52
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 4: Store many years ago who wanted to fight me, and

53
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 4: I think it was I don't know, I just made

54
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 4: fun of his head or something. I don't know what

55
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 4: it was. It was nothing that, you know, outrageous, but

56
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: he was really angry. Obviously his masculinity had been compromised.

57
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 4: So the way I fixed it was I just crawled

58
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 4: down out of the stage and sat on his lap

59
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 4: and gave him a big hug and we spit into

60
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: his ear, not so the only he could hear in

61
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 4: not the crowd. I just said, it's just comedy, mate.

62
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 3: You know what happened. He relaxed, his arms went down here. Yeah,

63
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: he just needed a bit of love. Often men do

64
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 3: they just need a hug.

65
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 4: I mean Will Will Will Chris Rocket said hey, what's

66
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 4: wrong in your life? And gave him a hug. As

67
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 4: we see, the tears would have flowed very easily.

68
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 3: One hundred.

69
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: Do you think that was the issue. I mean, obviously

70
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: this has been dissected all week because obviously we just

71
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: don't know what the relationship was between those two. I

72
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: still don't we still haven't seen the turning point in

73
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: him where he goes from laughing out loud to walking

74
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: up and slapping Christock in the face. Exchange for me

75
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: is the footage.

76
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 4: It's like his associate path, isn't it someone who's divorced

77
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 4: from their own emotions And he has been doing emotions

78
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 4: for money in acting for so long he's forgotten who

79
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 4: he is. That's what I think might have happened. Who

80
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 4: is Will Smith? We all don't know any more, do we.

81
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 4: It's going to be hard for him to do a

82
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 4: comedy now, isn't it, because people are going to want

83
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 4: to slap the screen.

84
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: I don't like that joke. Well, smack.

115
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,280

116
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 4: what kind of banter do you have? Because I know

117
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,640

118
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,080

122
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,960

Speaker 4: the same.

137
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 3: Track immediately it was opened the door, he walks straight through,

138
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 3: joing the best mum joke I heard.

139
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: This is saying that Shane Warn, the Great Shane Warn

140
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: needs to tell this story.

141
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 3: He was sledging a Sri Lankan.

142
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 1: Cricketer by the name of a Juna Ranatunga who was

143
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: a little bit heavy.

144
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: He was he was overweight aDNA Ranatunga.

145
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: And and Shane WARN's in the s lips and he

146
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: starts giving him heaps about his about his weight, just like, oh,

147
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: you are so fat, how are you getting between the weeks?

148
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 3: My god, look at the size of you. How did

149
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 3: you get so fat?

150
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: And apparently turns around, looks at warning and goes, well,

151
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: I put them a fair bit of way because every

152
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: time I slip with your mum she gives me a cookie.

153
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 3: And warnings that. He just started laughing.

154
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 4: Yeah done, Yeah, he didn't do. He didn't go and

155
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,120

Speaker 3: Get my mother's name out of your mouth. You didn't. Yeah.

157
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 4: And also just quietly, if you're upset with the comedian,

158
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 4: don't mention anything about your wife and someone's mouth in

159
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,320
