1
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,400
We're fading in, we're fading 
in. 

2
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,040
We're fading in. 
We're fading in. 

3
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,760
We're fading in, we're fading 
in. 

4
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,520
Guess what? 
It's Season 4, episode one. 

5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,000
Halfway to what? 
Is it 400 halfway to 800 or one 

6
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,560
halfway to two? 
I I guess it's halfway to 8028. 

7
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,040
02. 
OK, now let's just go. 

8
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,280
Let's just go straight into it. 
Let's when I'm mucking around. 

9
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,960
No, you don't even ask where I 
am. 

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,480
Yeah. 
Well, how are you? 

11
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:44,360
Where are you? 
Well, I'm still in Melbourne. 

12
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:45,720
It's still. 
Cold. 

13
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,120
Oh yeah the other morning it was
I think the coldest it's been in

14
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,920
the morning was like 0.4 or 
something wow it's not nice no I

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,840
mean at at at least we're in a 
house and we're not in the in 

16
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,560
the van 'cause then we would be 
feeling the 0.4 a lot more than 

17
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,560
in a house yeah A house keeps 
the heat mostly, which is nice. 

18
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,000
Hmm. 
But we're still in Melbourne so 

19
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,600
yeah I'm just hanging around OK 
not doing much. 

20
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,680
It's cold, Yeah, so. 
Not mucking around. 

21
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,360
Let's let's get. 
I'm not my hand. 

22
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,920
Let's just go straight into it. 
We're not wasting any time. 

23
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,240
No, now I have a it's coffee 
related story, but I don't think

24
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,000
it's coffee update. 
So I'm just gonna tell you a 

25
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,280
little story because and it's 
not. 

26
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,760
Cue the related music. 
I don't I don't have any coffee 

27
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,480
related music. 
Now this is not good or bad, 

28
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,000
which is why I'll just do it 
here and it's not specifically 

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,360
like coffee from a coffee shop 
related. 

30
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,600
So I'll just tell you a little 
story, OK, A coffee that I buy 

31
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,440
from the supermarket, it's a 
Malaysian sachet coffee. 

32
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,040
It's old, it's Old Town white 
coffee, right? 

33
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,360
And you get 15 in a pack. 
You used to only be able to get 

34
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,080
them in like these Asian 
supermarkets and they're about 7

35
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,440
bucks, 8 bucks for this like 15 
pack. 

36
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,280
At some point I just started 
using half a sachet. 

37
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,120
Yeah. 
And then putting like one spoon 

38
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,880
of decaf in with that. 
Yeah. 

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:04,880
And that that's. 
Enough. 

40
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,840
Yeah, so then I'm getting 30 
coffees out of a 15 pack. 

41
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,520
So that's a I'm already, I'm 
already ahead, right. 

42
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,080
I'm getting 2 for the price of 
one. 

43
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:13,920
Yeah. 
Anyway, the big supermarket 

44
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:18,200
started selling these probably 
sometime into Covad, like maybe 

45
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,280
21 or 22, OK, They started 
selling them and they were like 

46
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,680
7 bucks and then like everything
else, they've just slowly crept 

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:25,880
up. 
Then they were $8. 

48
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,040
That were 850. 
They were 950. 

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,960
I walked into Coles about a week
ago and I saw them on the shelf 

50
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,280
and now we're 1150 and it said 
new. 

51
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,080
It's like, is it you've sold it 
for about 3 years now, so. 

52
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:41,840
Right. 
What's new? 

53
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,320
Why is it new? 
And so I just went, OK, 

54
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,880
whatever. 
Who knows what these idiots do. 

55
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,040
I just wandered around the rest 
of Coles. 

56
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,600
And then right up in the back 
corner at the end of an aisle, 

57
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,440
they've got like the clearance 
section, beautiful clearance 

58
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,160
shelf, one of my favorite spots 
in the whole, the whole place. 

59
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:57,640
You never know what's going to 
be there. 

60
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:01,040
Yeah, what do I see? 
I see about 30 packs of Old 

61
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,720
Town, right, with a big yellow 
tag clearance 495. 

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,040
And I'm like what? 
What is going on? 

63
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,920
OK, so I'm like, OK, logically 
I, I know what this is going to 

64
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:15,560
be. 
So I have a look at the size of 

65
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,720
the pack. 
The size that they're clearing 

66
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:23,520
is a 570g, that's 38g each. 
And they previously were selling

67
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,880
for $9.50. 
OK, so then I go back. 

68
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,360
I take one with me, I go back to
the to compare. 

69
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,560
I go back to the other aisle and
I have a look at this and this 

70
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:39,120
is well it's new $11.50 not 570 
gram 525g. 

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,680
Shrink flation. 
So they've put $2.00 on the 

72
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,280
price and chopped off. 
Yeah, I think, I think 3G per 

73
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:46,880
sachet. 
OK. 

74
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,320
So I'm like, I literally drink 
this every day, at least six 

75
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,320
days a week. 
It's usually the first coffee of

76
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,800
the day. 
And then I might get one 

77
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,440
outside, but it's #1 So I'm 
like, I need to buy up these at 

78
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,840
495 because that is an insane 
price. 

79
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:02,560
Of course. 
Yeah. 

80
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,920
I mean, they, they haven't been 
495 for like 10 years. 

81
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,000
So I had a look. 
There was like 30 of them. 

82
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,120
And I'm like, OK, first of all, 
how many can I didn't have a 

83
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,960
bag. 
So first of all, I'm like, how 

84
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,520
many can I carry? 
Yeah, I can go. 

85
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,440
I can take them down to the car.
OK. 

86
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,680
And then the second thought was 
how many can I buy before my 

87
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,240
wife loses it? 
About how many coffees I've 

88
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,320
bought. 
So why don't you just? 

89
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,640
Chuck them all in the trolley 
and take it all in one go to the

90
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,240
car. 
I never even thought of the 

91
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,480
trolley or the basket. 
Oh God I'm an idiot. 

92
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,480
I never even consider that I'm 
just like no I'll I will submit 

93
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,040
marry 5 things right OK. 
I always try to just carry 

94
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,840
everything like an idiot if I 
forget the bag. 

95
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,720
OK, so I'm like, how many can I 
carry? 

96
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,400
So I picked up 246. 
I got 8 and it was starting to 

97
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,600
get a bit slippery. 
So I'm like, OK, I'll get 8, 

98
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,080
right. 
So I bought the eight. 

99
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,240
I thought they scanned at 495. 
I just said I didn't scan all 

100
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:55,320
eight. 
I went to the girl. 

101
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,600
Can I just scan one? 
And you just do magic, you know,

102
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,520
add 7, whatever. 
So she did that, took the eight 

103
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,840
down to the car. 
It's good for steps because, you

104
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:04,760
know, it's a fair walk back to 
the car. 

105
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,600
OK, And then so I get down to 
the car, I just dump all them in

106
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,320
the boot and then I'm like, 
where's the bag? 

107
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,360
Look in the back seat. 
Not not in the boot. 

108
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,720
There's no bag. 
So right. 

109
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,680
So I'm making another trip back,
buying another eight, buying 

110
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,360
them, walking back to the car, 
dumping them in the boot, 

111
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,760
walking back again. 
What? 

112
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,680
Did you buy? 
All of them I bought 8 more. 

113
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,040
So I'm I'm at 24 now. 
OK took all them down to the car

114
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,480
and I'm like, you know, there's 
literally about 5 or 6 left. 

115
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,760
Do I go do I get them? 
And I'm like no, I'll leave them

116
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,680
for someone else 24 That's nice.
I worked it out roughly. 

117
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,640
It's going to last me like 6 
months or eight months or 

118
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,080
something. 
Yeah, great. 

119
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,840
So you know, instead of paying 
1150, I paid 495. 

120
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:48,680
So that's, that's a good like 
60% off roughly. 

121
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,360
Yep. 
So that's my story. 

122
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,640
It's great. 
It's bad they it's shrink 

123
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,080
inflation and the price has gone
up. 

124
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,360
But it's good. 
I got coffee for the next 6 

125
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,160
months at least. 
Did you go to other coal? 

126
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,840
Stores looking, because I did 
put it in a, a I'm in a 

127
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:07,720
Malaysian Facebook group and I, 
I took a picture of this price 

128
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:12,040
and this weight this one and the
other the the new one and the 

129
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,880
old one and I just said if 
anyone's wants to go and check 

130
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,840
out your local Coles, this is 
what's going on Most people said

131
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,800
they've already all got the new 
ones so that they might have 

132
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,920
just run down the stock to zero 
and then replaced it but this 

133
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,240
place down where I am there's 
not a lot of Asian people around

134
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,520
it's very white. 
So I'm guessing they just wanted

135
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,680
they they'd never sell it right 
yeah. 

136
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:36,360
So they they will probably like 
thank God this guy just came in 

137
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,960
and bought like all the stock 
we've only got about 5 left 

138
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,120
yeah. 
When they do that with the 

139
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,720
obvious shrink flation, they 
just want to get rid of that old

140
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,440
stuff ASAP so people don't see 
it, Yeah. 

141
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,600
Exactly. 
And it's confusing for, I guess,

142
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,480
people who work there because 
there's different weights and 

143
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,880
different prices. 
Yeah. 

144
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,040
You know, I think they just want
to clear it out just so, so 

145
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,040
people don't see it and get 
angry, right, about what's going

146
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:58,520
on. 
Yeah. 

147
00:06:58,520 --> 00:06:59,680
Yeah. 
Because I saw the same thing the

148
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:00,600
other day. 
I saw that. 

149
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,680
The big block of Cadbury 
chocolate. 

150
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,800
Yeah. 
You know, the big one, like, 

151
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,120
yeah, yeah. 
Is it like 250g or something? 

152
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,840
Yeah, something like that. 
It's big. 

153
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,720
Yeah, it was a fruit and nut. 
I don't love the Cadbury fruit 

154
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,920
and nut, right. 
But again, it was a shrinking of

155
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,040
about, it was like 20 or 30 
grams less when I went back and 

156
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,960
looked at the the new one. 
And so I bought that. 

157
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,760
I always used to go any Cadbury 
chocolate more than like $1.66 

158
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,640
per 100 gram is too expensive. 
That's crept up now, obviously 

159
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,880
to around, I think it's $1.94 is
about the cheapest you can ever 

160
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,920
get it. 
OK, But usually it's around 2:10

161
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,080
now 'cause chocolate price has 
gone up, blah, blah, blah. 

162
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,000
Yeah, this Cadbury fruit nut, 
What? 

163
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,120
I can't remember the actual 
price, but it was like a dollar 

164
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,560
three per 100 gram, unbelievably
cheap. 

165
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,960
I mean, it's garbage chocolate, 
but it it does the job. 

166
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,880
I only bought one. 
They had three left. 

167
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,240
I only bought one. 
That's that's called 

168
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,400
self-control. 
Because I was just looking at 

169
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,800
the dollar per 100 gram and I'm 
like, Oh my God, this is so 

170
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,760
cheap. 
OK, but I just thought I've 

171
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,560
already bought 4000 coffees. 
I don't need anything chocolate.

172
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,720
Yeah. 
Very good. 

173
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,560
So that's the story. 
I I saved a lot of money. 

174
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,760
I spent upfront a good amount, 
but I saved a lot. 

175
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,760
That's good. 
That was a good happy start to 

176
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:09,880
the to the week. 
Yeah. 

177
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,000
And I don't have to think about 
buying coffee for six months, 

178
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,480
which is always good. 
OK, so that's that story. 

179
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,760
Now you know who's 58, Who Adam 
Sandler is 58. 

180
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,080
OK. 
Until the 9th of September, 

181
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,840
Yeah. 
So I hope he's having a good 

182
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,120
year. 
Well, they're doing a new Happy 

183
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,160
Gilmore, I think. 
I heard, yeah. 

184
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,480
Some movie that were doing 
another one. 

185
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,840
Yeah. 
Is that one? 

186
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,840
Yeah, Yeah. 
I haven't seen a lot of Adam 

187
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,200
Sandler movies. 
Like I know Happy Gilmore was a 

188
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,080
big one, right? 
And there was another. 

189
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,679
Oh, Billy Madison. 
Yeah. 

190
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,280
But the only actual movie I 
remember seeing is Click, which 

191
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,120
is not a famous movie. 
That's the one with Hasselhoff, 

192
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,600
isn't it? 
I don't remember, maybe right. 

193
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,640
I just just remember I love that
movie because I love the idea of

194
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,200
having a remote control for life
for just like someone's just 

195
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,880
screaming their heads off at you
and you're just like pause or 

196
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,640
like mute, volume down. 
I don't have to listen to this 

197
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,120
or Fast forward through all the 
crap. 

198
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,120
Oh, it's a genius idea. 
I really like that movie. 

199
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,240
I need to watch it again. 
Did. 

200
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,920
You ever see wedding singing? 
Yes, like well that. 

201
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,320
Was the other big one, Yeah. 
Yeah, yeah. 

202
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,200
But when, like when it came out,
whenever that was, like I barely

203
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,000
remember. 
I know Drew Barrymore was in it.

204
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,160
That's probably the reason I 
watched it, is because Drew 

205
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,400
Barrymore was in it. 
Yeah. 

206
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,480
So that's that. 
Let's go to what's good. 

207
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,920
What's good this week? 
Well, I'm guessing I finally 

208
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,840
recovered. 
I went to the doctor 'cause I 

209
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,960
was like, still coughing a bit. 
Oh, yeah, yeah. 

210
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,120
And like he said, look, have 
this antibiotics, do this for a 

211
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,320
week because he, you know, he 
did the stethoscope here and 

212
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,800
there, cough, cough, cough. 
And he's like, oh, this section 

213
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,400
cough again. 
Or it sounds like you might 

214
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,240
have, you know, infection or 
something. 

215
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,200
Whatever he heard, I don't know.
He said there might be an 

216
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,680
infection. 
Have these antibiotics for a 

217
00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:45,200
week, see how it goes. 
I just finished then like 

218
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,320
literally yesterday. 
OK, I think I'm fine. 

219
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,000
Yeah, OK, you you notice the 
difference? 

220
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,720
I'm not coughing anymore, I'm 
not feeling congested, I'm not 

221
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,200
feeling like there's still 
something there, right? 

222
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,080
I think I'm 100% now, finally. 
I hate when you have that last 

223
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,560
little bit and you just can't 
get over. 

224
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:03,040
It well look, it's been since 
the 10th of April. 

225
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,120
Wow, yeah. 
So that's six weeks. 

226
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:06,880
Right. 
That. 

227
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,640
Yeah, That's, that's, that's. 
Annoying. 

228
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,840
I mean, it started as 
laryngitis. 

229
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,000
Wow. 
And then either I just picked up

230
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,560
something along the way, who 
knows, but I'm fine. 

231
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,600
That's good, very good. 
What else is good? 

232
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,600
OK, this is good. 
To me, totally shocking, 

233
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,920
unbelievable news. 
The right wing main party in 

234
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,240
Australia at the Liberal Party 
after their crushing defeat, 

235
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,160
their solution was to choose a 
woman. 

236
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,000
I can honestly say I never saw 
that coming. 

237
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,280
I never thought that would 
happen. 

238
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,000
Well. 
You know what they've, they've 

239
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:44,560
recognized that, you know, they,
I guess they've alienated all 

240
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:47,720
these groups of people, 
including women, including like 

241
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,120
a whole heap of groups. 
So it's like, Oh, well, we can 

242
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,720
be progressive and we can, you 
know? 

243
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,800
Yeah, this is this is the fine 
line falling either side of of 

244
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,720
the the needle. 
It's not that they've recognized

245
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,280
that they're a bunch of 
chauvinist pigs and it's all old

246
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,520
white men. 
Yeah, and they think a woman 

247
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,840
will save the day. 
No, the only reason they chose a

248
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,400
woman is because they think 
that's what people will vote 

249
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:11,240
for. 
Correct. 

250
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,720
It's not because they've had any
self reflection and realization 

251
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,080
that they're an absolute pack of
dogs, right? 

252
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,160
It's just we've tried everything
else. 

253
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,800
Let's try this, correct. 
So I'll, I'll be very interested

254
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,120
to see how that goes. 
She seems, I've only seen very 

255
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,120
little of her. 
She doesn't seem very likable, 

256
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,760
I'll say that much. 
Yeah. 

257
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,160
Exactly. 
So it's probably they still got 

258
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,760
to fail because, OK, they chose 
a woman, but if you chose a 

259
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,880
horrible woman representing 
horrible values, which they do, 

260
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,440
who's still going to vote? 
It's just interesting. 

261
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,360
I can't wait to see how it goes.
Yeah, it's a great experiment, 

262
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,400
I'll say that. 
Yeah. 

263
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,120
Oh, man, that is like the last 
thing I thought would happen. 

264
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,640
I really did not see that 
coming. 

265
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,640
Yeah, what's good where I am in 
Melbourne, South of Melbourne, 

266
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,560
Mornington Peninsula. 
I think I can say that Nice 

267
00:11:57,680 --> 00:11:59,040
safely. 
Nice part of it. 

268
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,800
It's a big area no one's going 
to find. 

269
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,560
Me. 
They just go to the local Coles,

270
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:05,560
look at the clearing section, 
they'll find you. 

271
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,120
Just like around the Coles and 
wool somewhere I'll be, I'll be.

272
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,760
I'll turn up eventually. 
Right. 

273
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:17,080
But here's the thing, it's after
the majority of my life. 

274
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:22,720
It's just really funny to be in 
a really like rich white area, 

275
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,960
right? 
And like I go into Coles and 

276
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,120
wool. 
It's almost every morning. 

277
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,040
I'll go to one first and I'll 
look at all the options and then

278
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,920
I'll go to the other one. 
So that means I walk into the 

279
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,560
first one, usually walk OK with 
nothing. 

280
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,160
Now, if you try this in in 
Sydney or a lot of other big 

281
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,600
city places, straight away, if 
you just try to walk out of 

282
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,240
there without buying anything, 
they're like, it's a, it's a 

283
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,200
criminal. 
It's a criminal, yeah, they've 

284
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,600
stolen something. 
Who would possibly walk into a 

285
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,080
supermarket and walk out without
buying something like that is so

286
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,160
unconceivable to some people's 
brains. 

287
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:53,680
Yeah, exactly. 
Yeah. 

288
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,200
So down here, like, they, they 
know me. 

289
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,880
They see me almost every day. 
Yeah. 

290
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,960
And they, they know my what I 
do, Right. 

291
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,440
But it's just so funny to to 
walk out of a shop and not be 

292
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:08,240
treated like a criminal. 
Is your caravan blocking their 

293
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,160
view by chance? 
No, it's not. 

294
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,160
No, no it is not. 
OK, well, that's that's even 

295
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,560
better. 
It's just, and it's so funny to 

296
00:13:17,560 --> 00:13:20,200
walk past, like, what are those 
bakeries? 

297
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,560
Is it like Brumbies or. 
Yeah. 

298
00:13:22,560 --> 00:13:26,960
Brumbies or Baker's delighted. 
Baker's Delight Solely staffed 

299
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,480
by white people. 
Yes, they are. 

300
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,320
Yeah. 
Is that the same everywhere or 

301
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,560
is it just down here? 
I think it's everywhere. 

302
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,240
Oh, it's interesting. 
Yeah, 'cause walking around most

303
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,880
places in Sydney, any other 
bakery, they're gonna be like 

304
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,520
Vietnamese or yeah, some, some 
Asian of some description, 

305
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,080
right? 
Usually Vietnamese. 

306
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,960
And that's where I usually go to
get by me. 

307
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,280
But it's weird down here because
it's just all white people. 

308
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,200
And it's just really strange 
because I'm not used to being 

309
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,320
yeah in such a white area. 
It's just really, I mean, it's, 

310
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,480
it's not disturbing, it's just 
you notice it, you really notice

311
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,480
it, right? 
It's just, it's funny to me. 

312
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,280
It's just, it's just not normal 
to me because. 

313
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,840
Well. 
Of course, because Sydney's a 

314
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,840
multicultural. 
Being in, Yeah. 

315
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,320
Growing up in in Sydney, yeah, 
there's everyone. 

316
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,080
Yeah, exactly. 
And even when I'm in Melbourne, 

317
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,760
in the city, a lot of Asians, a 
lot of European, just everybody.

318
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,440
Yeah. 
And then you come down here and 

319
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:25,080
it's just so white. 
It is just like a sea of white 

320
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,800
faces, right. 
Oh, it's funny. 

321
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,360
Anyway, so that's good, not to 
be looked at as a criminal just 

322
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,120
for existing. 
That's a good thing. 

323
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:35,720
I've only got one more thing. 
Yeah. 

324
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,720
Now this does have a flip side, 
which we'll get to later. 

325
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,760
But the good part of it is, 
let's say what's good in 

326
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,160
general, and that is that we 
have fairly unrestricted access 

327
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,440
to the Internet. 
Like just about anything I want 

328
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,960
to get, I can get, I can acquire
in some way or another, right, 

329
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,840
with little to no cost yet. 
So that's what's good. 

330
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,520
We'll get to the bad part of 
that later. 

331
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,120
But right now, just enjoy your 
Internet access, OK? 

332
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:01,840
It's just going. 
That's what. 

333
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,960
That's what I'll say. 
OK, You'll hear the the other 

334
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,600
part of it later. 
So what about you? 

335
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:06,960
What is good? 
Well, I don't. 

336
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,200
Really have a lot this week. 
Last night I went to a gala 

337
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,080
dinner. 
Oh, with what was? 

338
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,320
Was Nicole Kidman there? 
No, she wasn't. 

339
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,280
But see, this is where the 
story's going. 

340
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,040
But myself and my colleague that
we work together, our boss 

341
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,960
invited us to this. 
It's a charity dinner for Humpty

342
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,320
Dumpty, which is they buy 
medical equipment for sick kids 

343
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,280
and it's connected to the, the 
charity, which is actually 

344
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,120
tomorrow, the Balmoral Oral 
Burn, which is like they run up 

345
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,800
a hill in Mosman and like it's a
deceptive hill. 

346
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,240
Like at the bottom of the hill, 
you look up the ceiling and it's

347
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,640
like, Oh yeah, that's not too 
bad. 

348
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,360
But then you, it's like 400 
meters up. 

349
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,880
And apparently if, if you make 
it to the top, everybody that 

350
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,880
does make it to the top, they 
throw up everywhere. 

351
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:54,920
So apparently it's like it's a, 
it's a deceptively killer kind 

352
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,120
of hill. 
But anyway, there's this gala 

353
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,400
dinner and they had the gala 
dinner. 

354
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,760
I got invited to it. 
My colleague and I, we drove out

355
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,480
there and like, we were talking 
about about like, you know, just

356
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,240
like restaurants in the city and
how they're not really doing 

357
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,320
good business and, you know, 
with rent and, like, prices of 

358
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,040
things and all that sort of 
stuff that don't seem to be 

359
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,320
doing any good. 
Anyway. 

360
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,560
This is going somewhere. 
Yeah. 

361
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,720
So anyway, we go to Balmoral and
there's this this massive 

362
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,160
marquee that they've set up for 
this gala dinner. 

363
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,800
And we got there at, like, 6:00 
and the things started at 6:30, 

364
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,440
but no one else was there. 
So we were kind of killing time.

365
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,960
And then right next to this 
Balmoral marquee that they've 

366
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,840
held, this gala dinner, there 
was a restaurant right on that 

367
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,800
corner. 
And my colleague and I are 

368
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,560
looking in the restaurant and 
the restaurant is like bare. 

369
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,680
There's nobody in it, no one. 
But there was like 20 staff. 

370
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,320
And there like, there was people
in the kitchen. 

371
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,480
There was waiters and waitresses
and all this sort of stuff. 

372
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,840
We're looking through the window
and we're talking to each other 

373
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,800
and we said, see, this is what 
we're talking about. 

374
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,080
Like, where's the people in this
place? 

375
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,920
Right? 
So we had this like a little 

376
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,400
interaction about the Bathers 
Pavilion or whatever it's 

377
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,760
called, whatever. 
And then we went into the 

378
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,040
marquee, did the gala dinner, 
blah, blah, blah. 

379
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,880
Came out at the end of the 
night. 

380
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,440
There's a bit of commotion at 
the same sort of restaurant. 

381
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,359
And, you know, I don't know, 
something's going on. 

382
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,000
Didn't think much of it. 
Anyway, I'm watching the news 

383
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,960
this morning and they're like, 
ah, Kamala Harris last night 

384
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,520
turned up at this restaurant in 
Balmoral and it's like, yeah, 

385
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,440
she was there. 
And that was why the restaurant 

386
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:24,800
was empty. 
Because they were. 

387
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,680
Catering did it, yeah, just for 
her and her entourage. 

388
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,680
But like we were looking in the 
window just before like that, 

389
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,360
all things sort of happened. 
So you're like, look at all the 

390
00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:38,120
This is why restaurants fail. 
Look at all these staff and no 

391
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:39,880
customers. 
Yeah, of course they're gonna 

392
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,400
fail. 
Exactly. 

393
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,920
Yeah, yeah. 
She was like, I'm being nice to 

394
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,680
any of us. 
She was right there eating her 

395
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,400
dinner. 
And we're in the place next door

396
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,080
eating out so. 
That's the way they want it, 

397
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:50,440
yeah. 
I don't want anyone knowing 

398
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,920
anything. 
So yeah, it's it's quite 

399
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,840
shocking that it was Kamala 
Harris. 

400
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:55,760
That's. 
Interesting. 

401
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,560
She's out here for some like 
real estate seminar or? 

402
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,760
Something I was just gonna say 
it'll be some conference that 

403
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:01,880
she's gonna talk at. 
Yes. 

404
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,320
It's gonna be a private thing 
and they get paid loads of 

405
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,200
money. 
Yeah, as always. 

406
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,200
Yeah, exactly. 
That story just reminded me of 

407
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,200
something else I just read the 
other day and it's related to 

408
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,080
you know This is why this cat 
face failing. 

409
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:16,320
And it said, again, the numbers 
might be wrong, but the, the 

410
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,520
overall thought is right. 
And it said something like due 

411
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,680
to, you know, massive, all the 
inflation and everything's price

412
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:29,480
increases, staff wages overtime,
the cost of coffee has gone up, 

413
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,240
stupid prices. 
And it literally said they 

414
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,480
expect 50% of Australian cafes 
to close in the next like 18 

415
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,040
months. 
Yeah, because it's just not 

416
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,760
feasible to continue. 
That's crazy. 

417
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,640
That's how, I mean, there's 
always been this horrible number

418
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,160
of, like, you know, 8 out of 10 
small businesses fail in the 

419
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,400
first year or two. 
Yeah, that number's always been 

420
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,960
thrown around. 
But 50%, if that actually 

421
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,760
happens, that is massive. 
Yeah. 

422
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,320
But but it also said we do have 
one of the highest coffee shops 

423
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,280
per person or whatever. 
Yeah. 

424
00:18:59,280 --> 00:18:59,960
Per capita. 
Yeah. 

425
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,440
I think we're in, like, the top 
five. 

426
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:02,960
Like, there's just so many 
cafes. 

427
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,600
Everyone's idea is like, let's 
open a cafe and sell coffee. 

428
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,240
Everyone needs coffee. 
Yeah, exactly. 

429
00:19:07,360 --> 00:19:08,400
Yeah. 
Forgetting that there's already 

430
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,080
5 million other cafes doing 
that. 

431
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,360
That's right. 
Exactly. 

432
00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:12,120
Yeah. 
So yeah. 

433
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,320
I reckon like in order for you 
to survive, you need to be. 

434
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,920
It's it's all about the 
location. 

435
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,760
If you're in a location where 
there's nobody else, you don't 

436
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,040
really have any other 
competition. 

437
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,640
There's no other options. 
You, you fare a bit better. 

438
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,480
Yeah, you've gotta have, I 
reckon, 3 things. 

439
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,000
You've gotta have location. 
Yeah, you've gotta have quality 

440
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,440
and you've gotta have value. 
Exactly. 

441
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,320
You don't have to be cheap, but 
you've gotta have the right 

442
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,400
price for the right quality, and
people will happily pay that. 

443
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,440
Yeah, OK, Well, I guess that 
coffee thing goes in. 

444
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,600
What's bad? 
But you just reminded me of from

445
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,240
that story. 
OK, so now let's do what's bad. 

446
00:19:44,360 --> 00:19:46,320
And I've already done 1, so 
there's one already done. 

447
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,400
OK, So what else is bad? 
Foo Fighters have fired their 

448
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,760
drummer Josh Freeze, after I 
think about two years. 

449
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,440
Yeah, he replaced Taylor 
Hawkins. 

450
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,840
Obviously, they thought it 
wasn't working out. 

451
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,520
So I guess they've decided to to
go in a different direction, as 

452
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,000
they say. 
I mean, that'd suck for Josh 

453
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,280
because, I mean, I'm sure that 
would have been a nice paying 

454
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,240
gig, right? 
I mean playing for Foo Fighters.

455
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,040
I mean, yeah, you've got to be 
good and you've got to be on 

456
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,920
time and be great, but it would 
have been a nice payday every 

457
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,440
week. 
But I guess. 

458
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,080
Yeah, it was unbeknownst to him,
right? 

459
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,320
He he kind of, he didn't see it 
coming. 

460
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,560
Yeah, apparently it was just 
like he. 

461
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,560
See you later. 
They've lined up somebody else 

462
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,560
to take his place or something. 
Is that the reason they let him 

463
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,440
go or I don't know, personality 
clash? 

464
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,400
But people sort of turned a bit 
against Dave Grohl when he found

465
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,400
out he had like another kid or 
another, another woman or 

466
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,040
something. 
So that didn't help his image, 

467
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,120
which up until then was like, 
he's the nicest guy in 

468
00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:48,160
Rock'n'roll, right? 
And he, he, I, I believe he is a

469
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,120
nice guy. 
He's made some mistakes though. 

470
00:20:50,120 --> 00:20:53,160
Yeah, but those mistakes that 
you're talking about really is, 

471
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,520
is his private business got 
nothing to do with Yeah, yeah, 

472
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,520
yeah. 
But then you look at like, you 

473
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,320
know, he, he does the feeding 
the homeless stuff and all that 

474
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,320
sort of stuff. 
Like they they kind of ignore 

475
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,760
that. 
Yeah, you can't cancel all that 

476
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,080
out just because of other stuff.
Yeah, Yeah. 

477
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,840
But then I see this. 
And if it was actually a 

478
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,080
surprise to the guy, that really
sucks. 

479
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,680
I mean, just be a man and have a
conversation about it. 

480
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,160
Don't just send him an e-mail 
one morning saying thanks for 

481
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,000
your service. 
You really helped us out. 

482
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,920
You really helped us out to make
a crap load of money 'cause we 

483
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,600
were without a drummer. 
But yeah, we've sorted something

484
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,960
else out and that that sucks. 
Like like Prince and the 

485
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:26,800
Revolution? 
Yeah. 

486
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,880
If that's the way it happened, 
that sucks, right? 

487
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,400
That's that's not good. 
Again, that makes me think, is 

488
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,120
he that good a guy? 
I don't know. 

489
00:21:36,120 --> 00:21:37,640
But again, who knows the 
details? 

490
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:38,600
I don't know. 
Yeah. 

491
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,960
What else is bad? 
OK, Remember when I was on the 

492
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,840
Central Coast a year or so ago 
and I went and saw Grinspoon? 

493
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,760
Yes. 
And I saw them and they were 79 

494
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,680
bucks. 
And I'm like, that's getting up 

495
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,520
there. 
That's getting up there for a 

496
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,040
band of that size. 
MMM but I paid it, I'm like, and

497
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,320
it was great. 
It was a great gig. 

498
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,320
It was worth the money. 
And all the tickets on that tour

499
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,200
were the same price. 
It was just under 80 bucks. 

500
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,600
So just about a year ago. 
So now they've just announced 

501
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,440
they're doing a 30th anniversary
tour. 

502
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,160
They've been around for 30 
years, right. 

503
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,000
And then I, I looked up the the 
ticket prices, which just were 

504
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,280
announced. 
All dates have a guess. 120 

505
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,560
bucks. 
Oh, you're so close. 109 

506
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,600
dollars, OK, $30 more than a 
year ago. 

507
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,120
Right. 
Which so I I'm pretty sure I'm 

508
00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:24,680
not gonna go. 
OK, I might hang out for like a 

509
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,160
last minute. 
All my friends sick, social 

510
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,040
media, all my friends sick, They
can't go. 

511
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,520
Here's a here's a ticket. 
Whoever DMS me first. 

512
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,520
OK, Yeah, I'll hang out for 
that. 

513
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,560
I'd even pay 50, but 109 bucks, 
that's out of control. 

514
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,160
It is, yeah. 
Considering Super Jesus are 

515
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,720
still sticking to under 50 
bucks. 

516
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,040
Yeah. 
Which I have mentioned to them 

517
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,120
and congratulated them on 
several times, saying don't 

518
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:51,640
think that the fans do not 
notice that you're staying at 

519
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,560
that price when everyone else is
80 plus. 

520
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,320
We notice that. 
So you are great. 

521
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:58,400
Yeah. 
So there's that. 

522
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,400
Yeah. 
The only one other thing I have 

523
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,280
Have you heard of this band Amel
and the Sniffers? 

524
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:07,680
No, okay, you shouldn't. 
You shouldn't have, because 

525
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,120
they're awful, okay. 
But against all odds, 

526
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:13,240
miraculously, they have become 
famous. 

527
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:18,560
They're an awful Australian sort
of rock slash punk. 

528
00:23:19,120 --> 00:23:20,840
I don't even know what to call 
them. 

529
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,360
Apparently they've been around 
for at least six, 7-8 years, 

530
00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:26,800
something like that. 
But I'd never heard of them 

531
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,760
until I saw Adam Hills put them 
on the last leg a few months ago

532
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,000
and that really gave them a 
boost in the Uki just see on 

533
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,880
YouTube last week they were on 
Jimmy Fallon. 

534
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:41,640
How the F How the hell did this 
useless awful ban from Australia

535
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,960
somehow get this Unbelievable 
believable opportunities like Oh

536
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,080
my God they are awful. 
Maybe I'm just old and they're 

537
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,960
just too shouty and noisy and 
screaming. 

538
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,920
I don't know. 
But I saw this one comment and 

539
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,280
it's like she is the ray gun of 
singers. 

540
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,280
It was the best comment. 
Say no more. 

541
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,640
So if you want an if you really 
can be bothered to look it up, 

542
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:10,640
it's Amyl and the Sniffers, like
AM YL and the Sniffers and I'd 

543
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,440
be very surprised if anyone 
likes them. 

544
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,520
Lisa, have a listen. 
I don't know, but I always say 

545
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,520
there's no good music. 
There are good bands out there 

546
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,240
that never get a chance. 
And then absolute trash like 

547
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,840
this gets national TV audiences 
in the UK and the USA and it 

548
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,160
just blows my mind how awful 
they are. 

549
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,720
And that's what they get. 
That's the chance they get. 

550
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:36,720
Sounds like Prince social media.
Oh my God, it's just, it's. 

551
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,160
Horrible. 
Hang on a SEC. 

552
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,560
You said to me this one last 
good thing, but there's gonna be

553
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,520
a bad thing and just wait. 
And now we've gone bad and you 

554
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:45,680
haven't mentioned it. 
Ohh. 

555
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,400
OK, I'm gonna call this now. 
It's the middle of 2025. 

556
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:56,080
And just saying everything 
that's happening, every product,

557
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:59,040
every company, they're all in 
the battle. 

558
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,360
Is it a battle? 
The quest for ultimate profits. 

559
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,240
Yeah. 
And shootification. 

560
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,440
Just everything getting worse, 
right? 

561
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,560
Prices going up for less quality
and less quantity. 

562
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,280
Every few months the prices go 
up. 

563
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,800
And I'm saying now the Internet 
in general will practically be 

564
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,800
unusable in the near future. 
This is what I'm thinking, OK, 

565
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,360
It's just, it's happened to 
everything else. 

566
00:25:22,360 --> 00:25:25,520
Everything else has been ruined.
But in general right now the 

567
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,440
Internet is still usable, but 
it's creeping in. 

568
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,320
I just have this feeling I, I 
can see this coming, you know, I

569
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,120
mean, there's ads and there's 
pop ups and there's all this 

570
00:25:33,120 --> 00:25:35,840
crap, but I just know. 
And like everything's changing 

571
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,680
to subscription. 
I just know what's coming. 

572
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,720
I don't know how or what form. 
And again, I'm on some 

573
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,320
conspiracy rant. 
I know. 

574
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,120
But I just, I just have this 
feeling like the Internet is 

575
00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:49,200
like the last thing that we've 
still got that is not totally 

576
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,200
ruined, right? 
So yeah, that's what's bad this 

577
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,080
week. 
Well, OK. 

578
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,120
I heard a story this week that 
you know how you can access AI 

579
00:25:57,120 --> 00:25:59,320
and you can ask it a question 
and all that. 

580
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,360
Yeah, I think one of, I'm not 
sure which AI it is. 

581
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:06,520
It might be Google or whatever. 
And they're like, oh, we're 

582
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,640
gonna introduce ads so that 
every time you ask a question, 

583
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,120
like an ad will pop up. 
Oh, there you go. 

584
00:26:11,120 --> 00:26:12,680
Listen. 
So, so there you go. 

585
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,760
Like, yeah, anything that's sort
of like barely touched or, you 

586
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,080
know, whatever, let's let's ruin
it. 

587
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,760
Let's put ads in. 
Let's, you know, Yeah. 

588
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,960
How can we make even more money,
right? 

589
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,680
How do we ruin this product to 
make more money? 

590
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,880
I saw that, yeah. 
It's like, let's bombard it with

591
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,160
that. 
So every time you use it ads ads

592
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,080
ads. 
Yeah, like that's what's bad 

593
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,320
this week. 
I mean it, it hasn't actually 

594
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,440
happened happened yet, but 
that's what's bad this week, 

595
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,160
this month, this year, this 
decade. 

596
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,080
This lifetime. 
We had a good run. 

597
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,160
I mean, I remember when I 
started getting online in oh 

598
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,240
man, now I'm not talking like 
BBS bulletin boards where I was 

599
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:50,360
playing Usurper and Legend of 
the Red Dragon and Captain Teos,

600
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,160
those amazing text based games, 
like actual Internet. 

601
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,280
I remember being at school in 
the computer room looking up 

602
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,720
some Prince website and they 
were talking about him and Maite

603
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,560
on Hawaii holidays, Valentine's 
Day. 

604
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,840
So I'm guessing that was 96 
February 96. 

605
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,320
It would have been right. 
So that's the first real time I 

606
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,160
remember. 
Oh, this is Internet this you 

607
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:12,840
can just look stuff up. 
How amazing. 

608
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:15,080
Look, here's the news. 
They're not going to show this 

609
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,760
on Channel 7 news tonight, but I
can get on the Internet and see 

610
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,000
what he did. 
How amazing. 

611
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,360
After 15 minute dial up noise 
before looking. 

612
00:27:22,360 --> 00:27:24,800
On Oh yeah, Yeah, yeah. 
The lovely, the lovely sound, 

613
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,840
the the great sound. 
So we had, we had just about a 

614
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,600
good 30 years of Internet, 
mostly unrestricted, but I, I 

615
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,920
just have this hunch I've got a 
sixth sense. 

616
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,360
I just have this feeling that 
it's all coming to an end 

617
00:27:38,360 --> 00:27:40,040
because everything else is 
ending. 

618
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,120
Everything else good is getting 
ruined and restricted. 

619
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,920
You know, and I don't think this
is even related to America and 

620
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,280
the the, the stupid orange 
clown. 

621
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,720
It's just everything in general 
is getting worse and more 

622
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,680
expensive and less quality. 
I just have a feeling internet's

623
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,920
on it's last legs. 
But look, I really hope I'm 

624
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,400
wrong, I really do, but I just 
have this feeling. 

625
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,480
So I've said it. 
That's all I've got to say. 

626
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,160
Well, I saw something on the 
news because in Sydney in the 

627
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,880
last week we've had major rain 
which has resulted in flooding 

628
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,840
and then. 
Oh yeah, I saw that Like 

629
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,080
regional places, massive floods.
Yeah. 

630
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,680
And then on the news, ah, you 
know, the supermarkets can't get

631
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,160
food to the supermarket, so, you
know, it's going to be shortages

632
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,520
and we're going to raise prices 
and all this sort of stuff. 

633
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,720
And I thought, I thought to 
myself, OK, they're gonna raise 

634
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,800
prices. 
No shock there in the second. 

635
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,040
No shock is they're gonna blame 
it on the floods. 

636
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,040
And then the third thing is, 
Yep, they're gonna raise the 

637
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,120
price. 
Do you think it's ever gonna 

638
00:28:29,120 --> 00:28:30,000
come down? 
Nope. 

639
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:32,960
They'll just keep it at that 
level and say, oh, just the 

640
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,600
funny. 
Thing is, it's not like they 

641
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:35,840
need an excuse. 
No. 

642
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,000
Why the like it's just an 
obvious easy thing to blame 

643
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,720
because the look, the prices 
were going up regardless, 

644
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,840
everything goes up like a little
bit like every few weeks. 

645
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,360
Alright, I saw this guy posting 
about coke. 

646
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,880
I think it was the two litre 
coke, which yeah, is actually a 

647
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,720
bad deal now compared to what a 
1.25 litre cost. 

648
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,720
But the two litre, first it was 
like 370 and then it went to 

649
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,040
like $4.00 and then it's gone 
back to 390. 

650
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:02,560
And this is all over like a 
month. 

651
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,240
I think they've just decided 
let's just change the prices so 

652
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,080
often that no one could possibly
keep track of what the real 

653
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,720
price actually is because 
nothing else makes sense. 

654
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,640
Right? 
Like don't say, oh, well, this 

655
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,720
week there was this factor that 
caused this price up. 

656
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,680
And then next week it went Nah, 
Nah, that's not happening. 

657
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,760
That's right. 
They're, they're not that on the

658
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,920
ball. 
There is no way they're that in 

659
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,760
the weeds on prices that like 
every single week something 

660
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,960
affects the prices. 
Like you've worked it out over 

661
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,120
the entire year. 
Don't give me this weekly 

662
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,760
bullshit. 
Yeah, but they're like, Oh, 

663
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,480
well, this this week, this 
happened, so this is going to. 

664
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,240
Yeah, I was like, oh, the floods
just happened. 

665
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,720
So oh, that's going to change 
the prices down the line. 

666
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,520
No, the prices were going up 
anyway. 

667
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,640
That's right. 
It's just convenient for you to 

668
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:43,760
blame them. 
That's right. 

669
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,640
Because if you didn't have them 
to blame, then we'd all be 

670
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,040
screaming, oh, look at the 
supermarkets putting the prices 

671
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,600
up again. 
Yeah, but what a convenient 

672
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,200
scapegoat. 
Oh, half the country got 

673
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,000
flooded. 
Yeah, Anyway, that's all I've 

674
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,800
got for what's bad. 
What about you? 

675
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,240
What's bad this week? 
Let me look down my list here. 

676
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,960
Tina Arena No. 
No idea. 

677
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,720
Susan Leigh, No. 
No idea. 

678
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,520
Marty Gojo Zambodo No. 
No idea. 

679
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,080
I thought you would have an idea
being Eurovision. 

680
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,280
I'm I'm surprised about that. 
Oh, I watched Eurovision, but I 

681
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,400
don't know anyone's name. 
Chris Brown, No. 

682
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,480
No idea. 
Trains No. 

683
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,240
Oh yes. 
So here we go. 

684
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:29,040
You might have remembered a few 
years ago now I applied for like

685
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,600
to be an extra in like. 
Tea. 

686
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,200
Yes, yes, yes, yeah. 
You were. 

687
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,760
You were. 
You were talent, Wolf. 

688
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,680
Yeah, so when I signed up to 
this thing, it's like they put 

689
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,360
you on the books, but then like 
one of the stipulations was, you

690
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,600
know, people's looks change 
every like 6 months and you're 

691
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,680
required to come back every six 
months and get your photos read,

692
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,320
done. 
I remember that. 

693
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,640
At the six month mark, I emailed
them and say, hey, like at six 

694
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,600
months, do you want me to come 
in? 

695
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,920
No reply. 
And I emailed them again, no 

696
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,920
reply. 
Tried calling them, you know, no

697
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,760
answer. 
So it's just like, well, I don't

698
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,320
know what to do if they're if 
they're not gonna. 

699
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,000
Does this company still exist? 
Well, they do, because this is 

700
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,080
where this is going. 
I got an e-mail during the week 

701
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:13,200
saying, oh, we've put your name 
forward for a car insurance TV 

702
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,240
commercial. 
Oh, and it's like, oh, OK, they 

703
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,640
still got me down. 
Like, and The thing is, is like,

704
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,960
I think that when I joined and I
paid whatever it was to, to join

705
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,400
it, I think it was only for a 
year or maybe maximum two years,

706
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,200
which I think is longer than 
that now. 

707
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,160
But they've still got me on 
their books and they're still 

708
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:31,800
submitting me. 
It's like, OK, that's 

709
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,680
interesting. 
But it's just like, what are you

710
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,320
guys doing? 
Because my hair is very short 

711
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:37,840
now. 
When I got my photos done, my 

712
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,280
hair was long. 
So yeah, like I look very 

713
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,280
different. 
So if they're expecting one dude

714
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,800
to rock up, another dude's going
to dude's going to turn up. 

715
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,320
And I just looked and I thought,
oh, this isn't gonna go 

716
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,640
anywhere. 
So I, I just ignored it because 

717
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,640
that's what they do. 
They kind of inform you that 

718
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,960
they've submitted you. 
And then, like, like, be 

719
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,160
prepared because, you know, you 
might get called or whatever. 

720
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,480
It's like, you're not gonna 
call. 

721
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,600
Yeah, Yeah. 
That's something that's bad this

722
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,120
week. 
What else is bad this week? 

723
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,000
I see coming up in the next week
is the Prince celebration. 

724
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,240
I have seen a couple of pictures
with like the around the world 

725
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,360
in a day background art, right? 
And like there's a bunch of like

726
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,280
guest speakers, but I've, I've, 
I don't even look at it. 

727
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,520
I just scroll past because I I 
just do not care but. 

728
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,600
You know why you're scrolling? 
It's because they're advertising

729
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,040
every day. 
And the reason they're 

730
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,280
advertising every day is because
they haven't sold the. 

731
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:28,120
Tickets. 
No tickets? 

732
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,240
Yep. 
So like last year, I think when 

733
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,040
I went like the the headlining 
act was a revolution. 

734
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,640
They put on this revolution 
concert and like it's sold out 

735
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,960
pretty much straight away this 
year. 

736
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,920
I mean, like the the people that
are on there, like there's the 

737
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,840
family and there's Jesse Johnson
and then that actual Morris Day 

738
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,840
and the time last year it was 
just Morris and he sang. 

739
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,360
Oh, it was Morris and a weird 
mix of the NPG, wasn't it? 

740
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:53,560
Yeah. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

741
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,320
So it's still a good line up. 
But like this, you can tell 

742
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,400
they're struggling because every
day it's like, get your tickets,

743
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,920
get your tickets. 
It's like it's a week out and 

744
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,800
you're still asking people to 
buy tickets. 

745
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,600
And it's like there's a easy 
solution for this. 

746
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,720
Just sell streaming packages to 
people that can't go and you 

747
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,800
make your money. 
And I remember last year, 

748
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,600
because I was talking to that 
Spicer dude and he was, it's 

749
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,240
like, Oh yeah, we don't live 
stream it because it's not fair 

750
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:20,560
to the people that have bought 
tickets. 

751
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,080
And it's like, it's not the same
experience. 

752
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,680
It's not the same. 
You sitting your ass on the 

753
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,760
couch watching it on a TV screen
or a computer monitor is not the

754
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,320
same as being there. 
Like if you want to spend that 

755
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,040
money and go to it and it's the 
experience that you're paying 

756
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:36,600
for, then that's what you're 
paying for. 

757
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,360
Because there's everything else 
attached to it. 

758
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,880
There's like, aside from being 
there, you get to her and all 

759
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,160
that sort of stuff. 
So it's not the same. 

760
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,880
If they want to stream the 
concert, they can make easy 

761
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,480
money from that. 
And they have like a whole crew 

762
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,520
of people, like 30 people or 
with cameras filming it all. 

763
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,000
But what do they do with that 
footage? 

764
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,160
They didn't do anything with it.
So it's like, you know, you 

765
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,720
can't tell these people. 
It's like if you're struggling 

766
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,720
to make it like selling these 
tickets, then sell streaming 

767
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,920
packages. 
It's like it's no brain like 

768
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:05,920
these things and you know, you 
know what? 

769
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,199
The outcome will be nothing. 
Right. 

770
00:34:08,639 --> 00:34:11,159
They won't sell a lot of 
tickets, which means they won't 

771
00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:13,719
make a lot of money right And 
then what will they do Will they

772
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,440
ever self reflect and think we 
could have done things better 

773
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,719
No, no, no. 
They'll they'll think of 60 

774
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,800
other reasons that they can 
blame before they'll ever look 

775
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:23,440
at themselves. 
They. 

776
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,000
Like the Liberal Party? 
Yes. 

777
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:27,920
Like the Liberal Party, Yeah. 
No self. 

778
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,560
Reflection, they'll never, 
they'll never think, well, maybe

779
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,239
we could have done this better. 
They'll be like, well, you know,

780
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,800
all the inflation as you know, 
everyone's stuck, you know, no 

781
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,480
one's got any money. 
They'll they'll just blame 

782
00:34:37,639 --> 00:34:41,280
everything else on the planet 
except for the the celebration 

783
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,560
that they put on not being good 
enough. 

784
00:34:43,679 --> 00:34:45,560
Yeah. 
So that's the bad thing, that 

785
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,280
they will learn nothing. 
You know, you can hope that they

786
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,560
would just one time just go, OK,
maybe we need to do better. 

787
00:34:51,639 --> 00:34:55,000
And next year they actually do 
better, like they actually learn

788
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,440
something and try and improve, 
but that's highly unlikely from 

789
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,760
everything they've done 
previously that they will ever 

790
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,080
learn from their mistakes. 
Maybe they'll park the bus in 

791
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,040
the car park and let people take
pictures of it. 

792
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,680
Maybe. 
Who knows? 

793
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,120
Oh my God. 
Well, if they don't sell enough 

794
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,680
tickets they they won't even 
have enough money to renovate 

795
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,880
that bus and it'll still be 
sitting out the back with four 

796
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:18,400
flat tyres. 
So that's what's bad this week. 

797
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,720
Oh, I've got one more thing. 
I didn't know if you were going 

798
00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,400
to say it or not. 
I've got one more thing. 

799
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:27,760
Joe Biden has revealed diagnosed
with aggressive form of cancer. 

800
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,560
It's it's spread to the bone, 
which I think is a bad thing. 

801
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,920
And OK, yeah, that's horrible. 
But then like within hours, 

802
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,880
Donald Trump, junior, all these 
right wing guys were like, Joe 

803
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,160
Biden's been lying to you. 
There's no way the White House 

804
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,400
doctors would have missed this. 
During all his medical, he hid 

805
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,920
this from you. 
He hid this from the American 

806
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,000
people for years. 
And it's like, is this really 

807
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,040
the time for this bullshit? 
He's not even, he's not even the

808
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,800
president. 
Who cares, right? 

809
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,240
What does it matter? 
He's gone. 

810
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,480
He's gonna literally be gone 
soon anyway. 

811
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,240
Why does this matter at all? 
He's gone. 

812
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,280
Like he's already dead. 
Jesus. 

813
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,000
Well, yeah. 
It's just, it's just so 

814
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,320
pointless. 
It just shows you how obsessed 

815
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,640
they are with never having any 
sort of policies, just this 

816
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,880
ridiculous war against the left.
It's just culture war crap to 

817
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,760
keep people angry. 
It is so irrelevant and it's 

818
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,920
pointless. 
It doesn't make sense either 

819
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,080
because let's say that let's 
assume that what they're saying 

820
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,160
is true and he knew that he was 
sick and all this sort of stuff.

821
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:34,800
Then if the outcast is short and
grim, which it probably is, then

822
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,080
what would happen is you have a 
sitting president that 

823
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,240
essentially dies. 
And then the replacement, which 

824
00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:44,160
would be Kamala Harris, I would 
imagine, just picks up, right? 

825
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,040
Well, yeah, I think if the 
president dies, then the vice 

826
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,880
president comes in. 
But yeah, that's why. 

827
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,680
It's, it's not good. 
Like I mean cancer's, but 

828
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,600
aggressive. 
First it was cancer, then it was

829
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,360
an aggressive form of cancer, 
and then they're like it has 

830
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,760
metastasized to the bone or 
something, which can't be good. 

831
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,800
No. 
Once that happens, I don't think

832
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,080
there's any there's any gum 
coming back from that, no. 

833
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,760
So that is what's bad and. 
Now it's time for. 

834
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:13,080
Did anybody die? 
The only one I've got is George 

835
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:17,600
Went, who was Norm from Cheers 
right again. 

836
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,680
I'm sure he did other things, 
but that's what everyone knows 

837
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,120
him from. 
Well, I know him from OK. 

838
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:28,320
There was a movie in the 80s and
outside of Australia the movie 

839
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,640
was called Gung Ho and it had 
Michael Keating in it and George

840
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,000
went was in it. 
He was like a MAGA, A MAGA guy 

841
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,400
in it. 
And in Australia they named the 

842
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,480
movie Working Class Man and it 
had the Jimmy Barnes on Working 

843
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,760
Class Man. 
But outside of Australia, it was

844
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,680
called Gung Ho and it was all 
about, yeah, like a Japanese 

845
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:52,280
calf factory, like setting up in
the US And like the US workers, 

846
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,760
it's very much like now like, 
you know, this China Asia tariff

847
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,600
thing, you know, but it was with
the Japanese instead of China. 

848
00:38:00,720 --> 00:38:04,000
And there was like these MAGA 
and he was one of the MAGA guys 

849
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,760
that would sort of oppose like 
these Japanese workers coming to

850
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,240
America to so-called take his 
job, blah, blah, blah. 

851
00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:13,000
So yeah, he was in that. 
So he was in that movie. 

852
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:18,240
Like he was 76 past away 
peacefully in his sleep, which 

853
00:38:18,240 --> 00:38:21,600
is the best way to go. 
Oh, I just I just saw this. 

854
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,720
His death coincided with the 
32nd anniversary of the Cheers 

855
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:28,400
series finale. 
Wow, wow. 

856
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,640
What's the chance of that? 
A poignant detail noted by fans 

857
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,080
and media alike. 
I think you'd want to double 

858
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,720
check that. 
But if that's right, that is, 

859
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:38,520
that's something that's. 
Spooky. 

860
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:43,600
Yeah, he appeared in all 275 
episodes of Cheers from 1982 to 

861
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,960
1993. 
Oh, he was in Fletch. 

862
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,800
Yes, he was. 
Yes, he, he sat on the beach. 

863
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,600
He was the drug looky lookout 
guy on the beach. 

864
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,240
Yeah. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

865
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,160
I need to watch Fletch again. 
Yeah. 

866
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,720
He also portrayed Edna in the 
Broadway musical Hairspray. 

867
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:00,160
OK. 
Interesting. 

868
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,560
His nephew is Jason Sudeikis. 
I did not know that. 

869
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:04,560
I didn't know that. 
Either. 

870
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,680
Wow I've probably never 
mentioned this. 

871
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:10,040
I am on a very slow rewatch of 
Cheers. 

872
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,320
Like I literally watch a few 
episodes a year but I am getting

873
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:14,880
through it. 
Like I'll go through a stage 

874
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,320
where I'll watch like 20 in, in 
like a in a month or two and 

875
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:19,880
then I won't watch it for six 
months. 

876
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,840
I'm I'm somewhere around season 
8. 

877
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,240
So I'm, I'm almost done. 
OK. 

878
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,240
I've only got like three seasons
more, so it'll probably take me 

879
00:39:26,240 --> 00:39:27,960
about another 12 years or so, 
right. 

880
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:32,320
But yeah, that's it's, he was 
great, but that's the only one 

881
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:33,800
I've got. 
So that was. 

882
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,800
Did anybody die? 
So now it's time for. 

883
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,640
E-mail. 
Emails. 

884
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,800
Also emails. 
Yes, we have two emails. 

885
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,040
We put the call out. 
The people have spoke, replied. 

886
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:05,880
Yes. 
Written. 

887
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,840
Yeah. 
So first we got an e-mail from 

888
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,240
Lisa, I think literally a day or
two after the last episode. 

889
00:40:11,240 --> 00:40:13,800
So, OK, it's a little bit late. 
Almost two weeks ago. 

890
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:15,120
OK, here we go. 
Lisa. 

891
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,800
Hey, Lisa. 
The subject is Mum's the word. 

892
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,080
I guess we'll get to why. 
Hello, Captain and Player. 

893
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:21,880
Captain. 
It sounds like you had quite the

894
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,720
whirlwind experience seeing all 
those comedy shows. 

895
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,480
Do they all start to blur 
together after a while? 

896
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,000
I've never been to a comedy show
before, but I agree that it 

897
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,240
seems far more suited to small 
clubs than big arena shows. 

898
00:40:33,240 --> 00:40:35,040
Absolutely yeah. 
Do they all start to blur 

899
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,800
together after a while? 
No, they don't. 

900
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:44,960
Like everyone I saw was like 
this individual unique person. 

901
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,480
There wasn't like, maybe some of
the jokes. 

902
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,400
If I like, try to remember 
something someone said, right, I

903
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,840
might get that wrong and say 
that it was somebody else. 

904
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,760
But probably not because I can 
usually when I remember 

905
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,400
something like that, I can see 
their face saying those words. 

906
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,720
Yeah. 
So the answer to that is not OK 

907
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,800
I have yet another McDonald's 
update. 

908
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,600
Here we go. 
I went there again recently to 

909
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,840
get some breakfast after an 
early morning appointment. 

910
00:41:09,240 --> 00:41:12,440
I got a breakfast sandwich meal,
which includes my favorite, the 

911
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,600
hash brown. 
Yes, and coffee breakfast 

912
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,320
sandwich meal. 
So I'm guessing that's like some

913
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,680
sort of Mcmuffin sausage or? 
Yeah, bacon and egg. 

914
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,040
OK. 
By the way, they charge you an 

915
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,560
extra $0.40 to get a medium 
sized coffee. 

916
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,080
Yes, I paid it. 
Yeah. 

917
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:29,880
OK, that's OK. 
You gotta have coffee. 

918
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,960
When my meal was ready, I picked
up the bag and walked out of the

919
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,960
store. 
The bag felt a little light to 

920
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,840
me. 
I heard Captain's voice saying 

921
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,160
how you should always check the 
bag before you leave. 

922
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,080
Yeah, you should always check my
job. 

923
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,920
My work here is done. 
If I if I've got that through to

924
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,480
just one person on the planet, 
I'm happy. 

925
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:48,680
Yeah. 
Always check the bag. 

926
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,960
Sure enough, there was no hash 
brown. 

927
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,400
Oh, my God, The the travesty. 
I went back inside and got it. 

928
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,600
And the dumb thing is, they 
weren't even busy. 

929
00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:58,560
Yeah, that's about right. 
Yeah. 

930
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,720
Oh, well, standard. 
The food was actually very 

931
00:42:00,720 --> 00:42:02,920
fresh, and it was worth it for 
the famous hash brown. 

932
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:04,800
This is. 
You said something like this not

933
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,640
long ago, Like they stuffed up 
an order and they weren't busy 

934
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,160
at all. 
And it's like, what else are you

935
00:42:09,240 --> 00:42:12,440
you even doing if if you've got 
10 cars in the drive thru, 

936
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,040
there's people waiting in store,
OK, make a mistake. 

937
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,280
But when you've got nothing else
to do, come on. 

938
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,280
There's no excuse. 
It's not that hard. 

939
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,280
I know you hate your job, I know
you got minimum wage. 

940
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,600
Life's not great. 
But come on, just give me my 

941
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:25,760
hash brown. 
You know what? 

942
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:27,400
You know what? 
They're getting the orders wrong

943
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,520
because there's some idiot 
ordering A2 Patty burger and 

944
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,600
that's saying -1 meat. 
What's this listening? 

945
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:36,320
You listening? 
What are you doing? 

946
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,960
Just do it right next time. 
Oh my God. 

947
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,240
That's why they're getting the 
other orders wrong, Yeah. 

948
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,840
On the last episode you were 
talking about the Olympics and 

949
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,360
what a huge waste of money it 
is. 

950
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,280
Yes, I will never change that 
stance. 

951
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,760
For last year's Summer Games in 
Paris, they kept making a point 

952
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,080
about how it was the first green
Olympics. 

953
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,120
I remember them talking about 
how the beds the athletes slept 

954
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,040
on were made out of cardboard 
and recyclable. 

955
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,560
Yes, I do remember that. 
And I remember the athletes 

956
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,520
complaining how uncomfortable 
they were. 

957
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,560
I don't think I saw one media 
outlet not ask someone in the 

958
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,640
village what are they like when 
you want to, you know, have some

959
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,880
fun times with somebody else? 
Every single question that was 

960
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,240
what they asked. 
Oh, my God. 

961
00:43:17,240 --> 00:43:20,280
Geez, get a life. 
Apparently they weren't as 

962
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,840
uncomfortable as it sounds. 
Well, yeah, it was. 

963
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,680
It was about 5050 from what I 
heard. 

964
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,840
Some people said it was fine. 
Other people said not so much. 

965
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,720
They also mentioned that the 
buildings where the athletes 

966
00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:33,080
stayed were going to be used as 
apartments and office space 

967
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,240
after the games were over. 
OK finally some common sense. 

968
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,760
I've done some quick research 
and it says that 95% of the 

969
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,200
venues were pre-existing or 
temporary. 

970
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,200
That's interesting. 
Much of the sports equipment and

971
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,320
computers were rented. 
OK, and the games were powered 

972
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,320
by renewable energy and lower 
carbon emissions, whatever that 

973
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,400
means. 
I totally see your point about 

974
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,880
the wastefulness of it, but it 
sounds like they really tried to

975
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,240
lessen that in the Paris Games. 
It will be interesting to see if

976
00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:01,320
this trend continues with the 
next Olympic Games. 

977
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,040
I think the major thing with 
everyone having to build new 

978
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,960
stadiums and all this stuff is 
because the IOC just keep 

979
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,640
ramping up the requirements. 
It's like you have to have a 

980
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,040
stadium that has to have this 
and it's got to have this and 

981
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,280
it's got to have all this stuff 
or we'll just go and give it to 

982
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,360
somebody else. 
If you can't do it, that's it's 

983
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,840
like it's, it's our way or the 
highway and everyone's just 

984
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,880
like, OK, we'll do it. 
Here's $100 billion of a new 

985
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,320
stadium. 
So in Paris, I mean, that's not 

986
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,800
an option. 
Paris is very old city. 

987
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,640
There's no spare land for them 
to build new stadiums. 

988
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,640
They don't have a choice. 
They just got to use what they 

989
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,520
got. 
And I guess for whatever reason,

990
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,280
the IOC was just like, OK, it's 
Paris. 

991
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,000
Yeah, for whatever reason, they 
just conceded and said, OK, 

992
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:45,360
yeah, but if they can keep doing
it that way, wow, they would be 

993
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,000
saving literally billions. 
So, yeah, good plan. 

994
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,040
Yeah. 
Now, OK, it's her final comments

995
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,880
on the the AI. 
Here are my notes for the last 

996
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,560
few AI theme songs. 
Episode 2 Five four 1950s Rocket

997
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,320
and roll Elvis style. 
The music is actually pretty 

998
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,680
decent and catchy, but the 
lyrics are still clunky. 

999
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,080
Also it's kind of long, but it's
probably my second choice for 

1000
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:06,760
now. 
OK. 

1001
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:11,920
Episode 255 early 2000s bluesy 
guitar and piano pop Reminds me 

1002
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,320
of Gavin DeGraw, Jason Mraz or 
someone like that. 

1003
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:19,360
It's just OK I guess. 
Episode 256 Female singer. 

1004
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,080
Yeah, generic pop sound with 
acoustic guitar and slightly 

1005
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,320
country electric guitar. 
One of the shortest of the theme

1006
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,360
songs. 
I swear AI is against women. 

1007
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:30,440
Yeah. 
It's like it refused so many 

1008
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,520
times to just give me a female 
song and then when it did it was

1009
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,120
the shortest one of them all. 
Come on. 

1010
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,200
Yeah, not much going on. 
Pretty bland episode 257. 

1011
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,560
Modern dance pop very mediocre. 
That last one I didn't mind. 

1012
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:45,360
I didn't mind the last one. 
It had catchy chorus but but 

1013
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,560
very mediocre. 
The dance beat gets repetitive. 

1014
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,240
Not much else to say about this 
one. 

1015
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,080
My top pick was the one from 
episode 253. 

1016
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,400
But don't let me be the only one
to pick the song. 

1017
00:45:55,240 --> 00:45:57,480
Maybe you could do a multiple 
choice survey for the? 

1018
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,200
Although if I'm perfectly honest
the theme songs are all much 

1019
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,600
longer than most other podcast 
theme songs so I'll probably 

1020
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,560
just skip over it each time. 
I did actually listen to the 

1021
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,440
Peach and black theme song every
time though. 

1022
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,080
Thank you. 
Toe jam, shoot the duck. 

1023
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,680
Classic. 
OK, so here's a recommendation. 

1024
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,520
Recommendation. 
It's the Netflix special of 

1025
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,440
Conan O'Brien receiving the Mark
Twain Prize for humor at the 

1026
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,880
Kennedy Centre. 
It was really funny, lots of 

1027
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,440
great comedians and his 
acceptance speech was top notch.

1028
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,840
Definitely worth checking out. 
Would you believe, Lisa, I 

1029
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,600
literally watched this a day or 
two before I got your e-mail. 

1030
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,960
OK. 
Because the house sit I was 

1031
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,840
doing, they had Netflix and I 
flicked through what's new? 

1032
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,600
Conan Kennedy Centre. 
Here we go. 

1033
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:38,840
Right. 
And it was like an hour and a 

1034
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:39,960
half. 
I've got time. 

1035
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,000
And yeah, it was great. 
That's telepathy. 

1036
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,320
It was great. 
It was so many funny people. 

1037
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,400
And of course, the last guy to 
come out and talk was Letterman 

1038
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,080
and he gave him the award. 
Oh, it was really good. 

1039
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,160
Yes. 
Agreed. 

1040
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:53,080
Agreed. 
It was good. 

1041
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,520
And we have a new Pope. 
I was raised Protestant. 

1042
00:46:56,720 --> 00:46:59,880
I was raised intestine so it 
doesn't impact me much directly,

1043
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:03,880
but it's still an important 
historical event and the first 

1044
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:05,480
American too, which is 
interesting. 

1045
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,160
So I guess I'll recommend 
Princess Song Pope as well, 

1046
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,120
although it's not very religious
at all. 

1047
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,600
A loop is a loop is a loop. 
Yeah. 

1048
00:47:12,720 --> 00:47:15,600
Lastly, yes, we like that. 
We are members of the secret 

1049
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:19,000
Super Checker Mania Society. 
Nobody else knows it exists. 

1050
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:21,280
Exactly. 
Yeah. 

1051
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,800
Have a great week, everyone. 
Lisa done. 

1052
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,720
Thank you, Lisa. 
Great, great, great, great. 

1053
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,840
So. 
There's that Thank you, thank 

1054
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,880
you, Lisa. 
And now another e-mail from 

1055
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:36,680
Brian and may I say it, may I 
say this is I'm gonna I'm gonna 

1056
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,240
say it a return to form. 
Wow. 

1057
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,960
I think I think I really hurt 
his feelings and he was he was a

1058
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,760
bit sort of offside for a while,
but I think he's come around. 

1059
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,160
I I read this e-mail and I'm 
like, this is almost back to the

1060
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,800
old Brian so. 
I'm bracing myself for a for a 

1061
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,360
clip clop clip. 
Clop yeah, I'm happy to say 

1062
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,680
Brian is back. 
So he's back the the subject 

1063
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,480
Hopscotch, flip flops, belly 
flops and chip shops. 

1064
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,080
There you go, There you go. 
There, there you go. 

1065
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:05,880
How did I know? 
How did I sense? 

1066
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,120
Dear George and Mildred. 
There you go. 

1067
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,920
Yeah. 
I still can't get my head around

1068
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,880
that you guys on the other side 
of the planet would be aware of 

1069
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,800
such a niche culture as the very
English 70s sitcom George and 

1070
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,960
Mildred Mesh. 
It was big. 

1071
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:21,640
It was big. 
Yeah. 

1072
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,800
Let me say Yeah. 
Just like there's some 

1073
00:48:25,240 --> 00:48:28,680
Australian shows which I've 
almost never heard of and people

1074
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:30,760
in the UK say, oh that was 
massive. 

1075
00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:33,280
George and Mildred was massive 
here. 

1076
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:36,200
It was like 730 Thursday or 
Friday night. 

1077
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,560
It was like prime time viewing 
for years. 

1078
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:44,520
It was like a big show, So and 
even like, was that the spin off

1079
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,560
from Robin's Nest or was it the 
other way around? 

1080
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,040
I think yeah, something like. 
That Yeah, all of that, all of 

1081
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,080
that UK 70s sitcom got repeated 
here like non-stop through the 

1082
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:55,600
80s. 
Benny Hill, Ohio. 

1083
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,760
Yeah, yeah, some mothers do have
them. 

1084
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:01,480
All of that stuff was because we
barely made any decent comedy 

1085
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,960
till about 1986. 
So up until then it was just all

1086
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:08,400
UK like import stuff and 
American, obviously, right. 

1087
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,160
But a lot of UK stuff anyway, I 
trust I find you. 

1088
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,840
Well, me. 
I'm quietly stressing out over 

1089
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,520
my best man's speech that I'll 
have to perform at my brother's 

1090
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,360
wedding in a few days. 
I'm sure he could nail it now 

1091
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,640
he. 
Can write out the best 

1092
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,680
hopscotch, flip flop, belly flop
speech no problem. 

1093
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,240
No problem. 
I wouldn't have any doubts, no. 

1094
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,960
We have no doubt for Brian. 
No, I mean, who doesn't love 

1095
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,360
public speaking where you have 
to entertain and be funny, 

1096
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,640
right? 
Oh well, I'm sure it'll be fine.

1097
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:38,080
We had the obligatory stag do 
some weeks back at a Butlins 

1098
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,800
Weekender at Skegness. 
Ah man, classic. 

1099
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:46,280
Yeah, could could it be anymore 
cliche stereotype exactly where 

1100
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:50,160
the theme was late 80s and early
90s dance and indie music? 

1101
00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:53,240
Yep, it was a blast. 
But keeping control of a group 

1102
00:49:53,240 --> 00:49:57,160
of 25 blokes wearing Cobra Kai 
outfits is like herding cats, 

1103
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,400
let me tell you. 
Oh my goodness. 

1104
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,960
Well, I can just see it now. 
I could, yeah. 

1105
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,360
I could imagine it any road up. 
You say that there's a load of 

1106
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,520
people listening to Slash 
downloading Super Chuckle Mania.

1107
00:50:08,720 --> 00:50:10,640
Can you give us numbers please, 
Captain? 

1108
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:14,480
It would no doubt be of interest
to the four corners of the world

1109
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,440
for such important data. 
Well, it's it's under 10. 

1110
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,080
We know that. 
Look, there's there's four 

1111
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,720
corners of the globe with 
occasionally one or two extras. 

1112
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,360
So less than 10 there. 
There's a lot. 

1113
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,240
But like I said, the tiniest 
percentage actually interact, 

1114
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:34,440
which still just blows my mind 
how some people they just it's 

1115
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,920
not an interacting thing. 
It's just like you do your 

1116
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:42,000
podcast thing and I listen to it
and the the Twain Never Shall 

1117
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:43,640
meet or whatever the saying is 
do. 

1118
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,360
You know what I think it is? 
I think it's like they listen, 

1119
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,000
but they're listening out for us
to mention print stuff. 

1120
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,240
I I'm sure there's a few, but 
that can't be everyone, yeah. 

1121
00:50:52,240 --> 00:50:56,600
But OK, when when we have to Jim
and MC on the the numbers went 

1122
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:56,840
up. 
Oh yeah. 

1123
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,000
When we talked about 
celebration, the numbers went 

1124
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:00,720
up. 
So like these people like I 

1125
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:02,200
think it's yeah. 
There you go. 

1126
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,320
Well, yeah, that that that is 
indicative. 

1127
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,160
There are people waiting for us 
to talk about Prince right after

1128
00:51:08,240 --> 00:51:12,960
five years now, right, And we 
still really hope we still 

1129
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,920
rarely do, which is right. 
And when we do, it's, it's 

1130
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:17,640
probably quite negative, I would
say. 

1131
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,240
Anyway, talking of data, a 
little nugget of info that 

1132
00:51:22,240 --> 00:51:24,960
caught my attention and thought 
I'd share it with you all as I 

1133
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,680
thought it was very interesting.
I listened to a very interesting

1134
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,880
interview on the excellent 
podcast Leading with Alastair 

1135
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:34,480
Campbell and Rory Stewart from 
the Rest is Politics podcast 

1136
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:39,520
with James Manika about AI, how 
it works, and what it does and 

1137
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,400
can achieve now and in the 
future. 

1138
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,440
It's very illuminating and 
certainly a recommended listen 

1139
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,160
if you're interested. 
Why I flagged this is that it 

1140
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:51,040
also touched on quantum 
computing, and although a fully 

1141
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,360
proper functioning quantum 
computer is a long way away, 

1142
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:58,160
scientists have an intermediate,
not perfect computer that can 

1143
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,720
already do extraordinary things.
For example, they did a 

1144
00:52:00,720 --> 00:52:03,280
computation that was solved in 
under 5 minutes. 

1145
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,040
Guess how long it would have 
taken the world's fastest 

1146
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,200
supercomputer get this 10 to the
power? 

1147
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:13,480
25 years. 
That's 10 septillion years, or 

1148
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:17,000
10 with 25 zeros after it, which
is older than the universe 

1149
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,840
several times over. 
Mad. 

1150
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,760
But hey, if you couple that with
AI Wolf. 

1151
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,240
Yeah, exactly. 
I let your minds have a think 

1152
00:52:25,240 --> 00:52:28,440
about that proper head Buster. 
Unfortunately, it would take 

1153
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,960
that same amount of time to 
check the result. 

1154
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,600
I only hope this technology 
stays in the right hands. 

1155
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,000
Well, we know that's not gonna 
happen. 

1156
00:52:37,720 --> 00:52:39,720
Yeah, exactly. 
I think that's the Willow chip 

1157
00:52:39,720 --> 00:52:42,560
that he's referring to. 
I haven't even heard about this.

1158
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,880
Very interesting. 
Yeah, just Google or watch 

1159
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,480
YouTube videos on quantum 
computers or quantum computing, 

1160
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:51,040
OK. 
But yeah, like it's supposed to 

1161
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,960
solve like the world's problems,
you know, because it can do it. 

1162
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,960
So like fast and and breakneck 
speed and all this sort of 

1163
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,440
stuff. 
It's it's quite fascinating. 

1164
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:03,560
Do you know what we don't need 
computers to solve the world's 

1165
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:06,640
problems. 
You know what will solve the 

1166
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,000
world's problems? 
All the billionaires could just 

1167
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,400
pay their taxes and that'd solve
almost all the problems. 

1168
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,760
OK, instead of having $200 
billion in the bank, how about 

1169
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,560
you only had ten billion? 
What's the difference? 

1170
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,200
You're never gonna spend it all.
Just fix things instead of 

1171
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,760
trying to make more profit, you 
greedy pigs. 

1172
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,720
Exactly. 
Is that a fair statement? 

1173
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,840
Yeah. 
God, it's ridiculous that it's 

1174
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:33,680
ridiculous that it even needs to
be said. 

1175
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,680
Yeah, that is how screwed up the
world is. 

1176
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,320
Now that's something that 
simple. 

1177
00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:39,320
Oh my God. 
Anyway, back to the e-mail. 

1178
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:43,040
Talking of AI, my favorite AI 
tune was on Superchecker Mania 

1179
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:47,040
Edition 249, and to be perfectly
honest, none of them are a patch

1180
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:50,400
on the intro music you currently
have now, as Mark so rightly 

1181
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,200
points out. 
OK, so that look, that's two out

1182
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,680
of three, which is what I joked 
would happen. 

1183
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:57,640
Two out of three. 
Now just keep the original. 

1184
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,360
After all that, keep the 
original. 

1185
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,640
Oh OK, so recommendations? 
I'm banging to an excellent 

1186
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,960
Aussie series called Mr. In 
Between at the moment which has 

1187
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,040
gained A cult following in the 
UK. 

1188
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,840
You should check it out. 
I was just talking about this. 

1189
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,560
I've never heard of it, but you 
know, it's, it's blown up in the

1190
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,200
UK and I don't, I don't have a 
clue. 

1191
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:20,320
It's the George and Mildred of 
Australia. 

1192
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:23,800
What is it? 
Is it like a drama? 

1193
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,360
I think so. 
Or it wouldn't be a sitcom, 

1194
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,760
because I would have seen it. 
OK, you should check it out. 

1195
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,640
Although, Captain, you probably 
won't. 

1196
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:35,560
Why waste time on Mr. In Between
when you can watch Mr. Spock's 

1197
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,840
Lost Toenail in Deep Space 9, 
series 345. 

1198
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:40,080
Right? 
Well, yeah, I'm. 

1199
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,160
I'm getting back to Star Trek 
soon, don't you worry. 

1200
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:47,440
Another one I haven't seen the 
classic live love sexy tour 

1201
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:48,920
from. 
Was it Dortmund? 

1202
00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:50,920
Germany? 
Yeah, Dortmund for decades 

1203
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,840
because I watched it so much 
when I was younger and it's been

1204
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:57,120
burned into my retinas. 
But I dusted it off the other 

1205
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,320
day and watched it and wowzer, 
what a gig. 

1206
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,640
What a tour. 
What an era for Prince. 

1207
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,240
Absolutely loved it and it 
brought back so many memories. 

1208
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,480
Oh wow. 
It was the first Prince tour 

1209
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:10,240
that I saw live. 
You lucky bastard. 

1210
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,520
My God, I even went to Paris to 
see the opening concert because 

1211
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:19,240
having been stiffed by a ticket 
operator for Parade 86 and then 

1212
00:55:19,240 --> 00:55:22,400
Prince cancelling the Sign of 
the Times UK dates due to the 

1213
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:26,000
freaky weather in 87, I made 
sure I was not going to miss out

1214
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,480
again. 
So I went to Paris as well as 

1215
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,560
Wembley in the UK. 
But yeah, watching him let RIP 

1216
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:35,240
on my favorite of his guitars, 
the Blue Angel, as well as all 

1217
00:55:35,240 --> 00:55:38,840
the theatrics, the piano medley,
the great band, I don't know, 

1218
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:40,640
all of it. 
The Paul shebang was just 

1219
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,440
brilliant and brought back so 
many memories. 

1220
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,880
I was lucky enough to be in the 
4th row at the Wembley gig and 

1221
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,520
got to touch the Thunderbird. 
Wow. 

1222
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,880
Which was a neat little buzz. 
I could bleed on about it all 

1223
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,080
day. 
Wow, what a gig Prince at the 

1224
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,520
peak of his powers. 
So if it's been a long time 

1225
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,040
since you've seen it, crank it 
up and check it out. 

1226
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,960
I watched it like about two or 
three weeks ago 'cause it was a 

1227
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:05,680
version that went up on YouTube 
that had like AAI. 

1228
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,120
Upscale. 
Upscale on it, it looks really 

1229
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:08,920
good. 
Oh wow. 

1230
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:09,520
OK. 
Good. 

1231
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:11,240
Like the close up shots look 
really good. 

1232
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:14,280
Some of the long shots, yeah, 
some of the long shots don't 

1233
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:16,440
like this in pixelation and 
stuff, but some of. 

1234
00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:18,240
That's just 'cause it's so dark,
but yeah. 

1235
00:56:18,240 --> 00:56:20,160
I can. 
I can just imagine on videotape.

1236
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,640
Yeah, I can just imagine those 
close-ups on his face in the 

1237
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,000
piano solo. 
Yeah, they would be great. 

1238
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,280
Yeah, I haven't watched it in a 
long time, but you know what? 

1239
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:31,120
Before I would watch that, I 
would go and watch some of the 

1240
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,680
the audience shot ones like 
there's Pittsburgh and Toronto 

1241
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:35,760
and. 
There's a few Toronto. 

1242
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,840
Yeah, like they're pretty bad, 
but I just want to see a 

1243
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:39,920
different show. 
Right? 

1244
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,880
Like him. 
I've seen that one so many 

1245
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,200
times. 
I know every millisecond give me

1246
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,240
something different. 
But I might look at that upscale

1247
00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:48,920
now that you've said it. 
That's all, folks. 

1248
00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:51,240
Cheers, Brian. 
PSPS. 

1249
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,760
I was down at my local gardening
centre the other day and imagine

1250
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:58,240
my surprise when I thought I saw
Michael J Fox there. 

1251
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:01,920
Unfortunately I couldn't be sure
it was him as he had his back to

1252
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,440
the Fuchsias. 
Oh my gosh. 

1253
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,600
Oh, I told you he was back. 
I told you he was back. 

1254
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,160
Yeah, OK. 
Local gardening centre back. 

1255
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,960
He had his back to the fuchsias.
Classic class. 

1256
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:19,080
That's classic Brian. 
He will have no problem at the 

1257
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:22,920
wedding so I swear to God if he 
comes back and says it was a 

1258
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,960
disaster, I won't believe. 
It No, I wouldn't. 

1259
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,920
I wouldn't even. 
He could just go back through 

1260
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:31,040
all the emails he sent to us and
come up with the best speech 

1261
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,880
ever. 
Well, he could like, he could 

1262
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,800
like, Oh my God, living like a a
wedding. 

1263
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:38,520
Speechwriter. 
He could be a speechwriter for 

1264
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:40,440
the the politicians. 
Who knows, he could might 

1265
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,560
actually make them funny. 
He might be a speechwriter for 

1266
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,400
Trump. 
I mean, a lot of the stuff that 

1267
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:45,840
he comes out of his mouth is. 
Quite. 

1268
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:49,120
Oh my God, like that idiot as a 
speechwriter. 

1269
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,240
Actually, he does. 
That's the crazy thing. 

1270
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,240
He barely sticks to it, but you 
can tell when he's reading off 

1271
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,600
the prompter because it sounds 
nothing like him. 

1272
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,800
And he keeps saying like, 
furniture instead of few because

1273
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:03,000
he can't read because he's a 
dumbass. 

1274
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,240
I love it. 
Anyway, what are we up to now? 

1275
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:07,560
Thank you, Brian, for the 
e-mail. 

1276
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:09,440
Thank you, Lisa. 
So then look, that's two out of 

1277
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:13,200
three votes to keep the original
music, which is probably what I 

1278
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:14,600
thought was going to happen, so 
that's fine. 

1279
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,680
Yeah, predicted. 
But it was a fun, it was a fun 

1280
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,480
thing to do. 
That's a fun exercise. 

1281
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,360
Yeah, we went, we went through 
the AI songs. 

1282
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,200
Remember we had the AI lady for 
a little bit and everyone's 

1283
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:25,360
like, Nah, I don't know about 
that. 

1284
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,480
Now we've done the AI songs, 
they're like, Nah, I don't know 

1285
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:32,680
about that. 
I see it's not working AI. 

1286
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:34,120
It's not. 
It's not there yet. 

1287
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,720
Let's say that, yeah. 
It's got it's got a bit to go. 

1288
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:41,120
OK, so now it's time for 
recommendations. 

1289
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:43,280
Recommendation. 
I need a recommendation. 

1290
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,520
Do you have a recommendation? 
What's your recommendation? 

1291
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,640
I have a recommendation for you.
I've got a song if anyone 

1292
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,720
followed my Instagram. 
I listened not that long ago to 

1293
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:55,080
all of the Aerosmith albums. 
Yes, yes, yes. 

1294
00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:58,760
And a song which wasn't even on 
any of those albums, if I'm 

1295
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,600
correct, it was only on like the
greatest hits and everyone knows

1296
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,800
it. 
It's from the movie is a deep 

1297
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:04,840
impact. 
No Armageddon. 

1298
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:05,640
Yeah, Armageddon. 
It's. 

1299
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,520
I don't wanna miss a thing. 
It is just one of the best power

1300
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:11,720
ballad songs it is. 
It is good. 

1301
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:14,960
From pretty late, like power 
ballads, you know, late 80s, 

1302
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,960
early 90s, this came in like 98 
and just wiped the floor with 

1303
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,880
any anything else for power 
ballads around that time. 

1304
00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,040
It was like, I think that might 
have been why I did so well 

1305
00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:25,920
because no one was doing power 
ballads anymore. 

1306
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,200
Exactly. 
It's so good and it's one of the

1307
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,080
best songs to sing along to in 
the car. 

1308
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:33,320
Oh my God. 
The problem was I was listening 

1309
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,520
to this like a week or two ago 
and my voice I was so worried 

1310
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:40,760
about like screwing my my voice 
and like having some relapse and

1311
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:44,560
it's so hard to not sing that 
song at 110%. 

1312
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:47,560
Like belt it out I'm. 
Trying to do like 70% and it's 

1313
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,160
just like, oh, this is just 
dumb. 

1314
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:50,800
Yeah, I can't do it. 
Just stop. 

1315
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:54,240
Just listen. 
I couldn't do it, but you've got

1316
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:55,840
to put it. 
I want to miss a thing by 

1317
00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:57,240
Aerosmith. 
Done. 

1318
00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,440
What else? 
Oh my God. 

1319
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:01,320
OK, the song. 
It's OK. 

1320
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,040
Here's the thing. 
I was listening to one of the 

1321
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:07,200
Aerosmith albums and I heard 
this song and I didn't know it 

1322
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:08,920
at the time. 
Is it called hands up? 

1323
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:11,840
No, no, no. 
It's called remember in brackets

1324
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,280
walking in the sand. 
And I just heard this. 

1325
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:17,360
I just heard arrow. 
Walking Sand, The Prince song. 

1326
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,840
I just heard Aerosmith singing 
this song, remember Walking in 

1327
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:25,200
the Sand? 
And I heard a quite familiar 

1328
01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,080
refrain. 
And I'm like, that is the same 

1329
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:33,120
stupid sound which I've heard on
a billion Instagram reels and 

1330
01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,920
YouTube Shorts, right? 
And so then I started looking it

1331
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:37,680
up. 
It's not even an Aerosmith song,

1332
01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,080
but I I never even knew it was 
what it was. 

1333
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:44,040
It's from the Shangri Lars in 
1965. 

1334
01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:52,160
Here's the stupid sound. 
Everyone knows that dumb thing 

1335
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:54,480
from all the stupid video clips 
you've seen, right? 

1336
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:56,480
Yeah. 
So I want you to add Aerosmith 

1337
01:00:56,480 --> 01:01:00,480
version of of this song because 
the you've heard the original, 

1338
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:01,920
right? 
I think it's pitched up for the 

1339
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:03,960
stupid meme. 
It's pitched, Yeah, Yeah. 

1340
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:08,240
But the original song's fine. 
OK, but I heard Aerosmith do it 

1341
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,440
and I'm like what the heck is 
this? 

1342
01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,440
I had no idea. 
Anyway, that's the two, two 

1343
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:14,520
Aerosmith songs. 
There you go. 

1344
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,800
And not Neov. 
Ohh yes. 

1345
01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,480
Oh my God, the K pop song. 
I sent that to you. 

1346
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,160
I've totally forgot about it. 
Yeah. 

1347
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,160
You don't want that added. 
Yes I I sent you this song 

1348
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:26,360
going. 
I cannot get this song out of my

1349
01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:29,080
head for like 3 weeks now and 
then I totally forgot to mention

1350
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,840
it right now. 
And you mentioned it earlier. 

1351
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,520
You said is it called hands up? 
It's called hands up right? 

1352
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:39,480
I'm guessing it's supposed to be
pronounced meow, but it's MEOVV 

1353
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,960
because K pop love doing weird 
stuff with English letters. 

1354
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,680
All right, again, all these K 
pop songs I recommend. 

1355
01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:46,600
It's just got this really catchy
chorus. 

1356
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:47,880
Yeah. 
And yeah. 

1357
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,120
Oh my God. 
OK, have a list of that or go 

1358
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:52,160
and watch the the music video. 
One or the other. 

1359
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:53,000
Yeah. 
OK. 

1360
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:54,320
What about you? 
Well. 

1361
01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:58,920
I'm gonna recommend Blvd. 
Breezes by Ronnie Hudson and 

1362
01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:02,400
Diamond Ortiz. 
It's just an instrumental song, 

1363
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,320
but it's it's like, listen to it
with headphones. 

1364
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,480
It's really good. 
I'm also going to recommend 

1365
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:10,240
Burning Blue by Mariah the 
Scientist. 

1366
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,560
Mariah The. 
Scientist. 

1367
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:16,520
Yeah, it's a bit printy, the 
song, it's a bit lean drummy and

1368
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,680
it's it's cool. 
I will add these to the list but

1369
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:22,840
I'll also recommend which I 
can't add to the list. 

1370
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:27,840
Today I saw Final Destination at
the cinemas Bloodlines. 

1371
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,360
OK, explain what that is. 
OK, final. 

1372
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,200
It sounds like a video game. 
No, no, no. 

1373
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:37,840
It's a movie franchise, OK, 
where people die and they die. 

1374
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,640
They die in like, ridiculous 
ways. 

1375
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,200
One, ridiculous ways, but two, 
it's like serendipitous effects.

1376
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,200
Like you know someone will bump 
something off a table which then

1377
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:50,040
links to it like a chain of 
events that end up like people 

1378
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:51,240
dying. 
OK. 

1379
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,440
It's kind of like that, yeah. 
It's kind of like all these 

1380
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,840
little things happen, but they 
end up being big things and all 

1381
01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:59,040
these people die and then it's 
like, I like a curse, but like, 

1382
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,160
then it happens to other people 
and yeah, it's pretty cool. 

1383
01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:04,560
So that's recommended, yeah, 
that's what is it. 

1384
01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,840
That's Final destination. 
It's called Final Destination 

1385
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:08,840
Bloodlines. 
It's about like I think six or 

1386
01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:11,720
seven other movies in the French
in the series, but they were all

1387
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:14,320
filmed in like the 2000s. 
And this one, they haven't done 

1388
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:16,720
one in like a long time and 
they've just, they've just done 

1389
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:19,240
this now, so. 
Again, something that just 

1390
01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:21,080
totally part. 
I never even heard of it. 

1391
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,560
Yeah, now I'm thinking of Final 
Fantasy. 

1392
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:25,880
That's the video game, isn't it?
Ah. 

1393
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,120
Yes, I guess. 
I don't know anything about the 

1394
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:29,280
game. 
I just know there's like about 

1395
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,080
25 of them, right? 
It's just every, every, every 

1396
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,120
time I look, there's another 
Final Fantasy something. 

1397
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,360
Yes, yes. 
Anyway, so that's our 

1398
01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:39,320
recommendations. 
Recommendations. 

1399
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,960
So that's it. 
That is it. 

1400
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:44,040
I don't have to remind you. 
Don't have to remind me about 

1401
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:45,560
the AI. 
See, now that it's not there, I 

1402
01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:47,480
remember it. 
I was just thinking, I don't 

1403
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:49,240
have to say the AI thing because
it's not there. 

1404
01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,880
So it's time for what did we 
learn this week? 

1405
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:55,760
Holy cow so much numbers are 
meaningless counting. 

1406
01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,000
It's pointless. 
Right. 

1407
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,720
Well, what I learnt is people 
didn't go for the AI song. 

1408
01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:03,720
They're, yeah, they're quite 
happy with the original song. 

1409
01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:05,040
Should we? 
That's what I learnt. 

1410
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:07,800
Should we be surprised? 
I guess not, Right. 

1411
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,560
I mean, it's not there. 
It's a tool. 

1412
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,640
Again, I've been using it for 
travel planning again and again.

1413
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:16,720
It just gets to a point where it
just starts making mistakes it 

1414
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:20,240
just cannot handle over a 
certain amount of information. 

1415
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:21,960
Yeah. 
And like you can't get. 

1416
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:25,840
I must apologise, I'm sorry. 
You can't get more memory. 

1417
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:28,040
You can't. 
You know it, just you cannot 

1418
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:29,720
expand. 
To do the cache. 

1419
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:32,480
Yeah, you've gotta go and delete
all the previous memories and 

1420
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:33,920
then it forgets stuff that 
you've told it. 

1421
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,560
And I mean, maybe if you pay 
more, that's always gonna be the

1422
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,600
answer, isn't it? 
Oh, you could pay more to get 

1423
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,000
more space and more memory. 
Yeah. 

1424
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:43,120
But yeah, until you do that, 
it's a stupid little thing which

1425
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:44,240
can't do very much. 
Yeah. 

1426
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:47,240
So yeah, it's just not there. 
Yeah. 

1427
01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:49,080
But see, that's the thing. 
This is the how they do 

1428
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:50,880
everything. 
They come out with this great 

1429
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:52,880
new thing and it's free. 
Yeah. 

1430
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:57,120
Chat, GP AT Gemini, Grok, They 
all come out. 

1431
01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,120
Here's this great new AI, 
finally. 

1432
01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:00,360
We've been talking about it for 
years. 

1433
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:01,480
Now we're finally putting it 
out. 

1434
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:02,560
Here you go, go crazy. 
Yeah. 

1435
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:04,400
And like they get you addicted 
to it. 

1436
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,120
Yeah. 
They did keep a tree for a 

1437
01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:09,360
while, but then straight away, 
now there's like, yeah, you're 

1438
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:11,680
saying there's gonna be ads 
coming up every bloody time you 

1439
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,760
ask it a question, right. 
And there's already paid to get,

1440
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:17,960
you know, a higher level and get
more features. 

1441
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:19,480
It's like, now stuff your 
features. 

1442
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,800
Yeah, exactly. 
I'll just use it for what it can

1443
01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:24,160
do and then I'll just delete 
that and start again. 

1444
01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:26,640
Well, that was the show. 
That was it, thank you for 

1445
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:28,960
listening. 
I'm player, that's captain and. 

1446
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:33,440
What a way to kick off Season 4.
Season 4, We'll be back next 

1447
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,920
time and here comes the music. 
We'll catch you then, see you 

1448
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:49,880
later. 
Bye, bye, bye bye. 58.
