It's 58. 58 Fade again, Fade again, Fade
again. Episode 200 and ten Oh wow,
halfway to 424. 20 I know what that means.
Did you know 1% of people will plagiarize this podcast, pass it
off as their own work, and 99% will say it's the greatest
podcast on earth? Exactly.
Yeah. How are you brother?
Well, now you bring that up. You made me pissed off again.
I'd forgotten about it for a few hours.
Oh, trust me, I haven't forgotten.
I haven't forgotten Where are you.
Where are you at the moment? Well, you're not holding moldy
this house. It is only a few days from
ending. Ohh OK.
There's one big black cat, Ohh black cat 100% black and like
these yellow eyes, but this is the thing.
Which I don't recall ever seeing before.
It's all black, and it's got like one tiny little spot on its
chest or somewhere, but it's all black cat, you know, like
everything. But it has black whiskers as
well. I don't think I've ever seen
that before. I've never looked at a cat's.
I've never noticed pay attention.
Yeah, it is. It's crazy.
So there's one. There's this one black boy cat.
He's a big fat thing. He's not fat.
He's just big. He's probably 6 or 7 kilos
Muffins. Only 2 1/2 kilos.
Oh, OK, that's that's a big cat. They're.
They just walk past each other. I don't care.
And then there's this three little dogs.
There's a black little Scotty something terrier.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Westy Scotty. One of them.
Yeah. And then there's two little Shih
Tzu cross something. I don't know.
OK. Yeah, what's only a few days?
Well, by the time I edit this will we will probably be driving
out of here. Yeah, and then we'll be off for
about two weeks camping. The only problem is it's
freezing cold. Yeah, you've been sending me
the. Every single morning it's like 5
degrees feels like 0.22 degrees feels like minus one.
It's like, I don't want to be on a freaking caravan in that
weather, but that's that sounds gonna be because it's only two
weeks. We're just gonna stay in places
that have power so we can use the heater.
Otherwise we'll die, yeah, well yeah, And then you're eventually
off to Melbourne. Yeah, well, yeah, When this
house, it ends slowly. Go to Melbourne, we got, we got
about two weeks, we got I think 12 or 13 days to get there.
So we'll just drive about 3 hours, stay there for two or
three days, do that well about four times and we'll get there.
Good. Yes, good.
Good. What about you?
Busy. Busy.
Always busy. Yeah, I went to the airport this
week, sent my daughter off on. Ohh yeah, off.
Off to Europa? Yeah, right.
And she's currently in London, but by the time this comes out
she'll be, I don't know, Amsterdam or something, but.
Oh, look at yeah, she she got there and she's having fun.
She says half of Australia's there.
Oh yeah, holidays as normal. And she went to that Harry
Potter world and Oh yeah, like it was the greatest thing she's
ever done. I've never read the books or
seen the movie, so I've no idea. Yeah, Harry Potter is another
thing. Like a massive, massive, yeah,
cultural, pop culture thing that, yeah, I totally missed.
I don't know if it was just my age, but I know other people who
were like in their 40s and love it, but just somehow I just
missed it. I never saw any of it so.
I know, like, I know all the references.
There's always references around, and I know Hagrid and
Hermione and all the stupid names, but I don't know what it
all is. He's just a magic boy.
I don't know. Right.
Yeah, Same. I have no idea.
Like, I mean, when the books first came out, I was actually
working in a bookstore. Oh, it was, you know, it was
originally marketed as a children's book.
And but then the adults started to like it and people were
saying to me, oh, you know, you should read it.
And I just, at that time, I just never had the inclination to
read it. It just didn't really interest
me at all. But then it became this big
thing and then it's like, well, I'm not going to go and catch up
now. So I just never got into it so.
I I think, well, he's a he's a weird thing.
I like scifi, but I don't like fantasy, right?
Like, I think I know. I don't know why.
I think the only real difference in my brain is scifi.
I guess mostly based on actual science.
A lot of it could be possible in the future, but fantasy is just
total fantasy. To see it's just anything
whatever you want a flying donkey.
It's fine anything but I can watch Star Trek and like you go
back and watch Star Trek from the 90s and like, you know they
predicted like all the laptop computers and like these tiny
little phones and all this stuff which they're like this can be
possible in the future half of its come true right.
Yeah. So yeah.
But fact just fantasy I'm just like, yeah not bothered me like
what was that David Bowie movie like Labyrinth and.
Oh yeah, like those massive There was a there was a few
matter about 80s movies. What dude?
I haven't seen that, yeah, but that that's kind of fantasy.
On the fence, I think of both, Yeah.
Yeah, because it could be scifi. Yeah, because.
Didn't they remake that they remade that not that long ago?
I think, yeah, yeah, they remade it.
Apparently it's really good. I haven't seen either the 80s
version or the new version, but the author of that book, he's
like a very what they could. I think it's considered Scifi.
Is it Asimov? Isaac Hasimov, Yeah, Yeah, I
think it's Asimov that did that. Yeah.
Anyway. But yeah, just fantasy stuff.
I'm like, I'm not bothered. Yeah, fair enough.
Do you have any updates? Coffee.
Chocolate. Oh, do you know what?
I have an update. It's not coffee.
Oh, what? What is it?
What is? It I have a kebab slash EUR
update kid the music. Whatever music, it's a big NEWS
UPDATE about me going to tip by Take Away.
OK, here it is. So we're in the Barossa Valley,
which is like an hour, hour and a half out of Adelaide city.
It's not, it's not that far. And I had to take something into
the city to drop it off. And so this was my last trip
into Adelaide. I won't be going back in there
now. I was, I was driving down there
and I was thinking, what am I going to eat today?
What? This is my last time in this
city. For who knows how long.
And I'm like, I can go to a Malaysian place.
I could be lazy and just get some deal at McDonald's and then
I'm like, no, I've got to try and get a proper year us just
one time. I've got to try and get the
actual thing I've been trying to get.
I love that you put this much thought into it.
You don't. Know how much I plan and I've
already I've already got down a bunch of places I want to go
back to in Melbourne in three weeks.
So yeah, that's all planned. So I went to a place in in
Norwood, which is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
To Norwood again. There's a place called Yanni's
Eros, which is not the best place in Adelaide, but it's in
like the all these lists that people make.
It's always in the top 10. So I'm like, okay, I was, I was
driving right past her anyway, so I'm like, I'll go here, but I
didn't want to go into the actual city because I was
driving and Parking's a pain and blah blah blah.
Yeah, Norwood's easy to park, so I went to this Yanni's Eros.
They opened at 11. I was there at like 1103.
That was still like putting the chairs out and now, but hang on,
didn't you say a few weeks ago it's bad to be the first
customer when something opens? Burgers for burgers?
Yes, Just for that's. So that's a rule for just
burgers. Well, that was fine in this
case, But for burgers, if you're the first meat on that freshly
cleaned grill, it can stick, it can burn, It's not good.
And that comes from a time I went to in Burger Place in
Maroubra in Sydney and it was the same thing.
They opened at 11. I was there at like 1102.
I ordered the first burger. All the reviews I'd seen at his
place were great. But I got the first burger and I
was not impressed because it was burned because it was off the
silver clean grill. You need all the gunk on there.
That's the flavor. Anyway, I went into this kebab
shop, Yanni's EUR. So I look at the menu and I I'll
just get the EUR. So I'll get the chicken and he's
like, you know, the, the accent lettuce, tomato, onion, yeah.
Garlic sauce. Yep, all of that lighter on the
onion. Don't love the onion.
Just a little bit. So he, he starts shaving off the
chicken on the big rotisserie thing, starts cooking that on
the grill. The grill was there's there's
places, right? You know, you know, you hear
about these places in Italy where they've been cooking the
Bolognese sauce in the same pot for like 40 years and they've
never cleaned it. Yes, yes, And they're.
Always keeping the original flavor.
Some places do that with their grill.
They don't fully. They clean off the grill, they
clean it, but they're not scraping every oz off it, so
there's still a good cover. So it's not going to burn my
chicken. So as soon as I saw that, I'm
like, I'll be okay here, even though I'm the first one.
So he's cooking the chicken on the grill.
He gets out the big, the Pitta bread.
Slow down. Like when it's on the
rotisserie, does it not cook there where they shave it off
and then they just pick it up so they cook it twice?
Is that what you're saying? I don't think I've ever seen
that. What?
Yeah, I mean they are cooked through on the rotisserie, but I
guess this is just to make it hotter.
I guess hot, maybe a bit crunchy or something.
I'm with it, so that sounds great.
I've just never seen it. Come to think of it, the places
I go I've been to in Sydney, they shave it straight off onto
the bread, correct? Correct.
Yes, that's right. Yeah, yeah, All these guys put
it down onto the grill, let. Yeah, I'm jumped.
Chucked it around a few times. Probably was there for about two
minutes, which is gets his bread, puts the chicken on the
bread, gets his lettuce, tomato, onion.
And then he realizes he put loads of onions.
So he grabs A Tong full of the onions and just chucks it back
in the bin. And I'm like, oh, you don't have
to Chuck it out. And he's like, no, no, you said
no onion. OK, garlic sauce.
It's at that point I realized he's not cooking any chips.
There's not going to be any chips in this year.
See, this is this is not this is the thing.
And I didn't even think to ask. When I went in there, it was
fine. I sat outside, I ate it.
It was very tasty. But again, it wasn't what I was
trying to get right. That could be my fault.
I could have said, do you have, do you put chips in it?
And he might have said we don't, but we can.
And then I would have got what I wanted, but I didn't even think
to ask about it. So this that was my last attempt
out of the three. Well, actually I did want to try
like the the packs as well there the A/B, yeah.
They do, which they claim they invented.
But then I was thinking about this and I'm like, there's a big
difference between somebody who invented something and someone
else who perfected something. I think that's the difference
here in Adelaide. Yeah.
They can say they claim they invented it all they want, but
I've had way better in Sydney, who obviously have perfected it.
And here, yes, they maybe they invented it, but I haven't had
any evolution. It's still just what they
invented. Yeah, you see this reminds me of
this man versus food show where they've got these competing.
Oh, there's always the two wars, the wars.
That's not the original way. And then like one does something
slightly differently. But then they say, oh this.
Yeah. This is the authentic way, yeah.
There's so many like that. There's there's the Juicy Lucy
one in Minneapolis, correct? Yes, yes.
And there's there's two places in like Philly that do cheese
steaks. There's two places in Buffalo
that do the Buffalo wings with the blue cheese sauce.
And it's always this war between two places that claim we were
the 1st and did New York. The delis with the sandwiches,
with the sauerkraut and all that sort of stuff.
Yeah, like they all have their own versions and frozen custard
and all sorts, all sorts of food, especially in the US Yeah,
but I guess it's no different here.
Everybody will have their own sort of version and maybe that
place you went to in Adelaide, like their version is without
the chips and you probably says this is the original.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. If I asked him to like, Nah,
Nah, this is the traditional way, brother.
Probably, yeah. I think some Greeks might
disagree with you, but OK, so that's it.
That's the, that's the EUR update.
I finally got it in the bread. It just didn't have the chips.
So I'm just going to wait till I get back to Melbourne and start
looking there. Yeah, I think you'll get a
decent, decent day in Melbourne for sure, yeah, yeah.
Well, so. I mean, Melbourne's got a lot of
things, but some things, they're pretty pathetic.
Like you try to get a a decent fund me in Melbourne.
It's not gonna happen, are you? Nah.
As many places. As they have selling them,
they're about 2/3 the size of the ones you get in Sydney, and
they're the same or more expensive in cost.
Yeah, taste. Taste is fine, but it's got to
be value. It's got to be value for money.
But here's the thing. We were talking the other week
about Greeks in Melbourne. Like, Oh yes, after you're us,
you're gonna get an authentic experience.
Yes, yes, it should be. There's more Greeks there than
anywhere in this entire country. So if anybody can do it, it's
got to worry. In Greece.
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
OK. So that is the the EUR update,
EUR update no, coffee update no. Nothing's happened.
I've just been gone. Every second day I'm at
McDonald's getting the deal. I either get the 2.2 or three
dollar large coffee, which is a big size, or I get the $4.00
deal, which is the small coffee and two hash Browns, which is a
good deal. That is a good deal.
Considering a single hash brown cost $2.85 and I'm getting them
for a dollar and I'm getting the coffee for $2.00 which should be
about four. So it's a great deal and I'm
sure they do those deals hoping someone will come in, they'll
get this deal. And then they'll like, they'll
get a a sausage, a Mcmuffin as well, which is like $6.
I never buy that shit because that's too expensive.
That's right. Yeah.
So I'm the one who just lost all the deals.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, live on those. Well, it's better than the deal
that my daughter got when it like because when she, like, the
stopover was in Dubai, she messaged me when she got there.
Oh wow, you're crazy. Oh yeah.
And she was like, I just bought a coffee.
Oh, sorry. Two coffees and a bottle of
water. Cost a 38 Australian.
You're crazy. Yeah.
I mean, like, did this sort of, like airport prices they're
charging. Wow.
Yeah. I mean, Dubai is expensive, but
that's, yeah, airport prices on top of that.
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Because I've actually been looking at some house.
And she said, she said that because she had the stopover, it
was only for an hour. It's over there because the
hottest month of the year over there is like July and August.
And she said like on the tarmac she could see like, Oh yeah,
Ling of the. Chuck, Chuck you bacon out
there? Yeah, exactly.
Bacon and eggs. MMM.
It'll cook straight away. Yes.
Easily over 40 degrees every day there.
But there's a lot of shopping centers full of air
conditioning. There's like these massive
indoor water parks. Yeah, and if we're doing house
sitting, we're at a house which is all got air conditioning.
So it could be all right. But again, it depends on the
cost of things. If it's still super expensive,
yeah, it's still gonna be expensive even though we're not
paying accommodation. Still gonna be expensive, right?
But anyway, where are we? Well, we're up to what's good
this week? Oh, what is good this week?
What is good this week? There's the music.
OK, this this house. I've got a beautiful TV.
It's an LG. It's either 70 or 75.
I haven't measured it. Oh, nice.
But it's that's what she said It's.
Really nice. It isn't.
I've just watched that so much Star Trek Deep Space 9.
Like, I'm literally watching 234 episodes a day, right?
Because it's just, it's beautiful.
It's good. Like a big size TV.
Yeah, it's great. Yeah.
And like, I can only watch Star Trek when it's dark, because
it's in space. It's dark.
It's it's dark. Anyway, I've got to watch it at
night or early morning, so yeah, for the authentic experience.
Normally I go to bed like 8:39 o'clock.
I think I'm a bit like 1110 o'clock 11:00 o'clock, because
I'm watching two or three Star Treks every night starting at
about 8:00. O'clock.
Well, you may as well take Avenge of the Big TV.
Oh yeah, you got I don't need to wake up early because.
Yeah, why not? It's still dark early in the
morning because it's winter, It's the middle of winter, and
it's 2 degrees outside, so why would I be getting up early?
So it's working out well. Yeah, I finished season three.
I'm already This is back with a season of these shows.
Had like 24 episodes. 26 episodes.
Yeah, I'm up to like, about four.
Or you said we're halfway to 4:20.
I think I'm up to about 4:18. So I'm like, I'm near the end of
season four. Like, I've watched a lot since
I've been. If anyone sees the Instagram,
they'll see all the Star Trek episodes.
There's been a lot. OK, OK, that's one thing.
The TV is great. I've been watching Star Trek.
Here's the other thing I've been watching a thing I downloaded a
few months ago, and it's a because this Deep Space 9 is
from like 90. I think it started 90.
Three or something 94 and it went for like 7 years.
So is this the one we would be Goldberg?
In it. No, no, that's next generation.
That's before. OK, OK, just asking.
I have no idea. Because it's that era.
It's you know it's it's for three ratio.
It's standard definition and it's doubtful they're ever gonna
remaster it. So I found online an AI upscaled
version oh, which is still for three ratio.
OK, but it's. I mean it is really clear it is
a. Amazing what these robots are
doing. It's crazy.
It is unbelievable. Yeah.
Well, I saw, I think I had this in my notes the other week and I
asked it that this, what is it? The firefight?
Yeah. Amazing stuff that you can do
with that. Like, it'll fill in if you've
actually got a picture that's like a small ratio.
It will fill it out with like, what it thinks the rest of the
picture should look like. It's it's amazing.
Just the stuff that you can do now, it's just incredible.
Yeah. For a show that was put out in
the 90s, it's and hasn't been like remarked.
In any way. And this is just somebody just
ran it through some program and made it like at least three or
four times clearer than it was. Is just amazing.
It's. And it's not like it's a you
couldn't tell the difference. You could so easily show anybody
the old one and the new one and they'd say, oh, that's way
clearer. Yeah.
It's not like it's a little difference.
It's amazing. Yeah.
So that's what's good. That's what's very good.
The magic robots are at it again.
And the big TV. And the big TV, I've got a
couple more things. But what do you got?
Well, I saw this week Burger King, Thailand has a new
cheeseburger with 20 slices of cheese on it.
No meat. It's just bun and cheese.
Now look, this isn't for me, like, I think it's like, I like
cheese. Don't get me wrong, I like
cheese. But I reckon the limit may be 4
slices. Four or five, Yeah, yeah, plus
meat, you know? But just like a literal block of
cheese, it's literally like just a.
Buying a block of cheese and just chop it into it?
Yeah, no, it's just it's here's. The thing that I was confused
about when I first saw the picture.
Can see the picture. It's got all the slices of
cheese, but it's not melted in any way, it's just cold cheese
put on the burger. If it was at least slightly
melted or something, it'd just be a big, gooey, disgusting
thing. But that would still taste
better than just chomping into a block of cheddar cheese.
Yeah, that's right. Yeah.
So when I was a kid and I worked at McDonald's, the actual cheese
for a cheeseburger came in those blocks, and you would peel off
the cheese to place it on the cheeseburger.
But it's like it just picked up that whole thing and put it on
the bun. That's it.
You're done like. They're just being lazy.
Yeah, they're being lazy. But I mean, like, what's the
market for this? Who's demanding?
Like a cheeseburger just up cheese.
When I first saw it, I'm like, it's not April 1st, is it?
Because this is just one of those dumb things that you'd
expect well to come out at this time?
There's a lot of weird stuff coming out now.
Like, you know, there's this Barbie movie and they're doing
all these Barbie burgers. Oh yeah, burgers with pink sauce
and just all this weird stuff. It's like, what's the market for
this? I mean, I know it's just pink
food coloring, you know, and they can just put it into
anything and just market it as or.
This is the Barley Burger. And yeah, I don't want a burger
covered in pink sauce. It's like Ken got too excited
and had an accident. I don't want to.
I don't want that. That's it.
Just it doesn't look good. Yeah, like I thought of you when
I saw this, I thought, I'll look at this.
This isn't for you. No, I wouldn't.
I I wonder, like I said, who? Who would eat this if it'd be
popular? It, you know, who was for.
It's for a bunch of drunken idiots who turned out a big
night out. Yeah.
Yeah, I have a big. It's just like how people go and
get a kebab at like 2:00 AM They'll turn up and they'll see
that and they'll be like, oh, go on, you get it and they'll make
some idiot try and eat it and then just vomit everywhere.
That's what it that's the market.
And they'll all stand around filming it and then put it on.
Bloody tick, tock. That's what it's that's what's
going to happen. Yeah.
Wait till all the Tick Tock and Instagram reels come of everyone
Thought I went up the pink Barbie burgers.
Yeah, exactly. Oh my God, exactly.
What else is good this week, bro?
Oh, how's your Instagram threads going?
You're loving that. Oh yeah, I've put a couple of
things on there. Yeah, you like it as an
alternative to Twitter? You reckon it'll kill to?
It's a Twitter killer. Well, here's the thing that I I
don't quite understand yet. As soon as you get on there,
you're just automatically following everyone.
Is that how it works? No.
Like when you did the setup it asks you the question.
I think there was one question that says would you like
everyone that you follow or follows you on Instagram?
And I said no, and you ticket. And I said no to that.
I said I don't want to follow. Everyone that is on Instagram,
right. I just want to follow a few
people that I know. And then and it and it was just
full of people, just we, I don't even know if it's people I know
or not. It's just random crap.
It's like Twitter when you don't Click to see the people that
you're following, it's just that random crap that they show you.
Yes. And it's like, yeah, no, I don't
like that you don't like. It so I've put a couple of
things in there, but I don't think it's gonna.
Unless they sort that shit out, that's that's just dumb.
Unless the Elon Musk keeps limiting Twitter to the We'll
see. We'll see what else is good for
you this week. I showed you a week or two ago a
new Chocolate Cadbury's block of chocolate.
It is an inside vanilla passionfruit.
Oh yeah, this one. Have you tried it yet?
Yes, I have. Yeah.
Do you like it? See, I do, but I think it'd be
well, I know you hate white chocolate, but I think it'll
work better with white chocolate.
Really. Passion fruit, for me, like,
this is the weird thing about me.
I love passion fruit flavor, but I hate anything that's passion
fruit that has seeds. I don't get that how people eat
the seeds. Like the seeds have got to go.
The passion fruit, just that, like the yellow part and juice,
that's that I love. I don't see how people eat
seeds. Like, it's annoying.
Like, you know, like when you eat a watermelon or whatever you
like, you spit out the seeds or like, yeah, yeah, anything.
Like with the seed, it's just like you don't eat that part
because. I'm the same.
I don't like even eating an orange because it's got seeds in
it. That's annoying.
Right. And even mandarins that have
seeds? That's annoying.
Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of fruit.
Yeah, some reason I can chomp passion fruit seeds.
They have a they have a texture, and there's a certain feeling
when you chomp those little seeds.
And there's a taste as well, which is different to the taste
of the actual source. So I don't know what those seeds
are, but there's something satisfying about chomping on
those, and I don't know what it's.
It's a texture thing. It's greedy.
Yeah, it's greedy. You know, I just.
I don't like that. So, and I can't think, I can't
think of anything else that I will eat the seeds, but
passionfruit is somehow the exception, right?
So when I see something like this where it's a chocolate with
that's passionfruit, like the first thing I think is, you
know, if they put seeds in or whatever, but it's just the.
Just the sauce, yellow part of it, yeah.
Yeah. Which is good.
Like so I like it. I.
Really like the flavor. It's one of the best ones I can
think of in ages. You like it?
Like, there's all the normal ones, like in the snack block,
there's like the pineapple strawberry, and I love that.
Yeah, all of them. But this is something else.
It's really. Yeah, it is so.
If anyone could find that, go and eat it, it's recommended.
It's a recommendation, yeah. And apparently in a few weeks
they're going to bring out a gooey caramel kicker.
Oh, I see. They tried that though, ages ago
when they I remember when they first came out with those chunky
Kit Kats. Yeah, the chunk.
Yeah, yeah. In the chunky Yes stuff.
Yeah, in chunky. And then they sort of
disappeared. And then even the chunky's
disappeared for a while. I haven't seen them for a while.
Maybe they're still there. They are still.
I just. I don't look at them.
Anyway, what else is good? What else is because it's been
so cold, I finally gave in and bought a thermal like long
sleeve shirt. Like under clothing?
Well, yeah, but. It's.
Just like it's just like a black long sleeve shirt.
Really. Yeah.
Yeah, Yeah. But where did you get it from?
I. Actually got it from ALDI and I
wasn't even gonna buy it because because I'm from Goulburn, home
of the Marino wool home of the jail.
Yeah, that too. And supermax, Supermax.
And I know that getting stuff that's made with that Marino
wool is the warmest thing you can get.
And then I saw in ALDI thermal, you know, long sleeve shirt made
from this Marino wool cotton or whatever it is and it was 30
bucks, which is quite expensive. I kind of remember the last time
I bought any item of clothing that cost that much.
It's been at least 10 years, OK, But I bought it.
It is warm. It is very good.
Yeah, yeah. See I got the one from Uniqlo.
They got that heat tech technology and it's really good
because you can wear it under your clothes and it's quite thin
in its material, but it keeps you so.
Warm. That's the thing I was looking
at there, realizing your body heat, yeah.
I looked at this and I could look.
I can see through it, yeah. And it's like, yeah, that's
right. And before I bought it, I'm
like, how warm is this going to be?
I can see straight through it, correct, Yeah.
And then I wore it, Yeah, because I'm in Australia.
It's never that cold. We don't understand like this
wearing layers thing as good as people in Europe and Canada and
stuff. Because they have to, yes, but
here. Sort of just a interesting idea,
but not a lot of people do it. Unless you live in a really cold
area. Yeah, so I'm always just wearing
a tshirt and a jumper and that's it.
I never wear more than those two layers.
Like, hardly ever. But it's just been so freaking
cold lately. I've had to spend the money, and
it was worth it. See, when I go to work, because
we work in like hotels, you have to wear suits, right?
Oh yeah. And you can't wear like, you
know, you can't really wear big jackets and and stuff.
It's not part of the look. So I wear these stuff underneath
even like the pants, like these Long John thermal pants, And
they're like hugging to your skin.
Yeah. And then when you wear your
actual, like, business suit pants, they don't even feel like
they're there. So sometimes I have to check
that I'm actually wearing pants sometimes because it feels like
they're not even there. Yeah, but it's good because it
like, it just keeps you warm. And you know no one knows the
difference. Especially some places in the
city where you've got all these, like skyscrapers, some of them
streets just turn into freaking wind tunnels and the wind can be
so cold just flying down those streets.
Yeah, but yeah, I bought a pair of the the pants as well.
Like, I don't know, great few months ago.
That's my recommendation. This week.
Yeah, I'm a lot underwear. Yeah.
It's good stuff. It's good stuff.
What else? What else is good this week?
Have you seen this Las Vegas sphere?
Have you seen this thing, this big screen in the middle of the
middle of nowhere? No, I haven't seen it.
OK. It's just this big Dome thing
they've built in Vegas and it's covered in like you're talking
about the 70 inch in the in this place house.
Yeah. Wait till you see this thing.
I think the resolution is 19,000 by 13,500 pixels.
OK, And it's 100 times clearer than today's best H.
DTV Oh wow. Look at it.
It is an actual giant sphere. Wow, correct.
Yeah. But all these people driving
through Vegas, like, I don't know how, there's not car
crashes and stuff because it'd be, it's just so big, this
thing. And you know, like distracting,
you know, like when they built the Sydney Opera House, they're
not using like white tiles, like white white tiles because the
sun would have reflected off the Opera House and blinded the
people driving across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
So they're like an off white, but it's like, but yeah, it is.
That is insane. It's like, you know, they're
just putting this massive LCD screen in in the desert.
Like, who gives a fuck? Look at that.
Yeah, yeah, everyone Google that.
And if you're if you're going to Las Vegas, holy moly, go there
and look at this thing and watch the videos, because the video,
like the the video of the content on this Dome changes.
It's always like changing, but inside it's like a big
entertainment facility. They're going to have you.
Two's going to do a concert in there.
They're gonna do movies. It's got something like 160,000
speakers inside, like 80. 1000 seats?
That is insane. Yeah, it's this big
entertainment complex. You know what else is insane?
Apparently in East London, they're building one of those
there. But it's bigger, this one.
And then this one in Vegas, it's gonna be bigger, apparently.
Imagine watching Star Trek on that screen.
Holy cow, That looks just unbelievable.
Yeah, it's greater. Wow.
Of course it has. So this thing cost, apparently
it was one point something billion projected, but now it's
blown out to two point something billion of course, like the
final cost. So it's.
Yeah. I'm surprised you haven't seen
this. Like watch some video on it
because it'll show you like the outside of it, like it like
they've got a as a giant basketball and like they put all
these different content on it and it's it's yeah, it's
amazing. Wow.
I probably won't ever go to that one, but I all might go to the
one in England, right? Yeah, well, if it's open by the
time. Yeah, I don't know if I'm ever
going to go to America again. I love it.
Why aren't we doing the road trip next year, bro?
I'll do Canada. I'll do it.
I'll go to Canada. I can drop you with the border.
You can run on down to Minneapolis for a week or two
and then you can come back. Sounds good.
I'll probably heat you up for those plans that you had.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you're the plan, guy.
Yeah, I am. I like planning.
Sometimes I think I like planning more than actually
doing the plan, right. Doing all the research.
And you know, I'm going to eat here, I'm going to go to this
place, I'm going to do this, do that.
I'm going to drive from there to there.
That's going to take two hours, 45 minutes.
Yeah, I do all of that. And then when you, when you.
Do it. It's like, yeah, OK, I I did the
thing, but I knew I was gonna do the thing because I've already
planned it, so it's just as much fun planning it anyway.
Well, I'll, I'll, I'll give you a mission to plan, plan, trip
for me. OK.
I hit us with it. One more.
A good thing I have, and that is KFC.
We talked about this before. KFC had their Christmas in July,
11 days or whatever it was, all the deals.
Yes, first day was a massive failure.
Everything crashed. People weren't happy, but it
seems like they learned and I even said let's hope they learn
and you know put more capacity or whatever they have to do to
have, must be listening to Super Chuck Amania.
Who doesn't? Who doesn't?
We probably talk about KFC more than any other podcast, so of
course they're listening. Anyway, I went and got a.
Deal. It was 2 Zinger meals and it was
$12.00. But it was also with Nuggets or
something. Yes, it was the zinger burger,
the chips and the drink. Two of them.
Two of those meals plus 10 Nuggets.
Very 12 bucks. Very good deal.
Just one of those deals costs. I think about 9:00 or 10 bucks
now. Yeah, so it was.
That's an amazing deal. That is amazing deal.
Yeah. So I did that, it worked.
And then they repeated that single Zinga burger for $1.00 on
the the last day to make up for the first day being a massive
failure. Yeah, and I got that as well.
Yeah. So I was happy.
I was happy it was do. It was a good deal.
It was annoying. I could only get a single Zinga
burger for a dollar because I'm like McDonald's and angry Jacks.
I don't have 8 accounts on each thing.
I've only got 1. The KFC, because they usually
don't have those sort of limits, but.
They did on this, right? It was annoying for me because
these deals were between the 3:00 and 5:00 and I was a KFC at
those times, so I always missed out on the deal being at work
and stuff. That's a pain.
It was a pain, but it worked for me.
And I mean, even from here I had to drive.
I think it was. It was about 6 KS to the KFC,
but that's fine. If I'm getting a Zinga burger
for a dollar, yeah, I would have preferred two or three, but
it'll do anyway. That's all I've got for good.
That's good. So then, that must lead to
what's bad this week. I actually don't have that much.
Everything's been nice and nice, OK?
The only I mean the bad thing is I'm going back to camping,
getting out of this nice warm, central heating, comfortable
house screen. Yeah, with a big TV that that
that's bad because I I could stay here for.
A lot longer, yeah. But he's the only real thing
I've got. It's, um, I went to McDonald's
in Gawler. This is this morning actually,
Gala and I went. I went in there at about 8:00,
o'clock 8:30 or something, and I walked in.
There was no one in there drive through with.
There was. There's always six cars in the
drive through. Because people, yeah, are just
unbelievably fat and lazy. They can't even get out of their
car, right? So I go in, No one there, no Q.
That's great. You know, the thing that I don't
like about going to a drive through McDonald's is the
McDonald's prioritize the drive through because.
They do, I have noticed cars. So if you're standing there and
wanting food, they're ignoring you.
Anybody in the car is getting the Food First, yeah.
That's why as soon as I walk in, I'm just like hello.
Yeah, exactly. And make sure everyone knows I'm
there because I know that they're so focused on because
you know, they've got, you can see the timers on their screens.
They've got 22 seconds to get this food out that window,
exactly. So I know I'm not the priority,
but I'd still rather walk in there and wait 30 seconds or a
minute, then sit in the drive through for 10.
Yeah, which they do. It's unbelievable.
Yeah, because they cannot literally stand up.
They're just so fat and lazy they can't even get out of their
car. It's amazing.
Anyway, wedding there. Got my deal. $4.00 deal went and
sat down and no one in there and I said you know how they have
like a long bench seat and then along that I've got like maybe 3
tables, yes. And then single seats on the
outside. I sat right at the end because
there was a PowerPoint there with the USB.
So I plugged in the phone, charged the phone, got to do
that right, got to take that power, and then I was in there
only maybe 5 minutes. I'd just gotten my coffee and
hash Browns, and I'm starting. Chomping on them on the
magnificent hash brown. Yeah.
And I see this old Grandma grandpa with some little, you
know, grandkid or whatever, walk in and they ordered their stuff.
And yeah, do you know where I'm going with this?
They got their food. They got their food.
They walk over to the area of where all the tables and chairs
are. Yeah.
And where do you think they have to sit?
Right next to you? Yep.
Literally 40 centimeters next to
me. Right next to me.
There's thirty other tables in the whole freaking restaurant.
Yeah, anywhere else they could have sat, but no right?
They have to sit right next to me.
These people couldn't believe it.
Yeah. I couldn't believe it.
It's like in my head I was like I was screaming, what the hell
is wrong with you? I sat there about a minute or
two minutes, and then I just got up and went over and sat at a
different section because I just couldn't deal with it in those
instances. See, when the people don't take
a hint, you got to drop like a massive fart or something like
that, because then they look at you like what's wrong with you.
And then it's like, hang on, what's wrong with you sitting
right there? Yeah, I had my earphones in.
I was listening to some podcast. I should have just pretended I
was talking to someone and just started swearing my head off.
They would have left then. Because they had like the little
6-7 year old girl with them. Yeah, and I'm just there.
What are you talking about? Oh my God, you stupid fucking
idiot. Yeah, see what I say?
What they do Then? What's what's wrong with these
people? I mean, you know what it is?
It's this is called self-awareness.
These people have no self-awareness, not or not none.
And I'm sure I've said before how much I like going into like
a shopping center at like 7 in the morning when it's totally
empty. I just love it.
I love it's great empty. I just like things where there's
no people. Yeah.
People, yeah, places that normally have people, but they
don't right now. So it's a good time to be there.
There was not a single person in this McDonald's and Oh my God,
this is this is nice. And then that happens.
And I just, I was, I was shocked.
I was angry. I was just disgusted.
Dumbfounded as made the stupidity.
It's like, why? Why would you do that?
I cannot think of a single reason.
The only reason is, like you said, they just have no idea.
Like, there's people. There's so many people who just
go around this world thinking that they're the only people in
this world. Yeah, exactly.
It's crazy that they have no idea what is happening around
them or who is around them or anything.
Correct. It's insane.
So that's what's bad. It was just, oh man, it was just
so annoying. So yeah, that's the only real
bad thing. It's just And I'm still angry.
I mean, it was only this morning I'd be angry.
But I'm still like don't come in to my empty.
McDonald's and ruin. My, my, my sanctions.
My beautiful, silent, empty, calm, nice morning relaxing
coffee hash Browns time. Yeah, by being a total moron.
Seriously. See, I'm like you.
If I can avoid people at any cost, I do it like those
self-serve checkouts in supermarkets.
Yeah, I'll go there just so that I don't have to talk to people,
you know, I just. Don't.
Yeah, Yeah. Most of the most of the time I
use those. Yeah.
If they're standing, they're looking bored and then there's
no customer there. I might go to them just to give
them something to do, right? Because it's so rare that
they're actually free? Because usually there's only one
or two open in the whole place. So if they're empty, I'll
usually go there because they can scan my stuff.
Why should I? I don't mind talking small talk
rubbish. If I save me doing your job,
we'll see. You know what the ones that
annoy me is like, OK, the self-serve there is for, you
know, if you only got like really a handful of items and
you can scan them and go and then you you're freeing up those
ones, their actual checkouts where the people are for, the
people that have doing the like the really big shop.
But then you get the people that do have to do the really big
shop and go through self. It's like, what's wrong with you
like. I've got a trolley half full of
stuff and I'm gonna scare it myself.
It's like, good luck with that, Yeah, but that's that's the only
real annoying thing that's happened.
Like everything else has been OK OK, well that's that's good that
you don't usually the the bad list is outweighed way bigger.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, That's what she said.
Yeah, yeah. What about you?
Anything. Let me look down my list here.
Here we go. Hugh Edwards?
No. Plagiarizing Prince fans?
No. Lily Bonker?
No. SAG Strike?
No. I've got to mention, I'm just
gonna say this, what everyone knows that there's this big
There was first there was the writers strike, and now that
actors also have decided to strike.
And I don't know all the details.
I don't really care, but I just found out.
I'll tell you what the details are.
It's residuals. It's residuals.
Oh, OK, so I want to get. Again, it's Americans wanting to
get paid. So it's all about getting paid?
Of course it is. OK, I did this piece of work.
I got paid for it. But if it goes into the sort of
reruns or whatever, well. I want to get.
You've got to pay them forever. Exactly, Yeah, it's that.
Imagine if you were like a car salesman, right?
And you sold a car and you got, you know, your 5% Commission.
OK, here you go, It's 5 grand. Whatever.
But then you're like, no, no, no, no.
Every time this guy drives this car, I have to get paid because
I sold it. So you know, that's only fair.
That's just dumb. But that's anyway another
another part of this is the riders are saying, well, we
don't want to get eventually replaced.
We want to add an assurance that we're not going to get replaced
by AI. And I just looked at it and it's
like as if you're not using AI as part of your current job
anyway or in the future you're going to at some point rely on
AI to conduct your work. It's just.
It is very good for just throwing up basic ideas and then
they can work from that. Yeah.
But would they ever admit that they did that?
Probably not. No.
So, you know, But here's my
point, though. I saw there was some big speech
by Fran Drescher. And then and then I'm like and
she's like the president of the. American Actors Union.
She's the president of actors in America.
The Nanny. Like, I never really watched The
Nanny that much, but I wouldn't think she was the greatest
actress. And I don't think anyone's
saying she is. But for her to be president of
all the actors in America, I find that quite bizarre.
You know, it's not like it's Anthony Hopkins or, you know,
some really reviewed experience. Yeah.
Patrick Stewart It's not something or they're all
English. Welsh but it's yeah, I just find
it just so random that the nanny random is the president of
actors in America. I I could as I'm laughing
they're like, what's this speech?
Oh, it was a great speech. It was so passionate and I'm
like, I can't watch her do anything.
I don't want to hear that voice. I can't take anything she says
seriously. But and and I'm sure she's done
stuff since the Nanny. But I don't know.
I just hear that voice, really know the, the, the.
Screechy voice. Yeah, you know, Like, remember
Janice in Fields? She was exactly the same
Sheffield. Janice and friends was exactly
the same. Chandler's on off again,
girlfriend or whatever. She was just, she had that voice
and I'm just like, she's the Anyway.
I interrupted your your list. I think you were just about to
get to the thing well. You actually sent me this about
the influence of picking up rubbish on a beach.
Oh yes, So the story is there's this.
Influencers filming themselves on the beach, doing the good
deed of picking up rubbish on the beach and putting in a
garbage bag and all that. And going, look at me, aren't I
saving the world? Aren't I great because she
thinks she's gonna get a million hits?
And everyone liking it and saying, oh, aren't you amazing,
right. This is like the people paying
for the shopping. Same sort of concept, you know,
this feel good things. Little does this person know
that in the distance somebody's filming her being filmed and
when she presses stop on her recording, she actually dumps
all the rubbish and then walks away.
So you know, it's all a big act and it's a new story.
And then you send it to me and it's like, yeah, this is.
That's exactly what this is. Not a surprising yet.
Yeah. Yeah, that's what's bad.
Another one that you sent me, which I actually saw a bit
earlier today, was the the tourists going to Death Valley.
This is literally a tourist hotspot.
Literally. Because this Death Valley gets
at least. Known for being literally the
hottest place in North America. Like it's just the conditions
and it's a valley and the way the heat gets trapped in the
thing and it gets, you know, over 100 and. 2000 and 30
degrees or whatever it is in Fahrenheit, Fahrenheit.
And now there's these idiot. Oh man.
Just want to experience the heat.
Yeah, who has? To do that, have they never
heard of a sauna? They're way better than 50
degrees. What is wrong with these people
that they're driving like 5 hours just so they can say I
experienced 55 degrees Celsius? It's it is bizarre.
I mean, if you come from like, what's it, what's a cold place
in Russia? Canada.
I don't know if you've never ever had a temperature anywhere
like that, maybe that could be a one off crazy thing that you'd
want to do. But again, those cold places
have saunas. Just go and do that right?
It'll be way cheaper than traveling all the way to
California or wherever it is, Arizona, just to say, oh, I had
this temperature, I was there. Yeah, it is bizarre.
It's all just these idiots who are gonna do Instagram and
TikTok and film themselves being there.
That's what it's going to be. They're all just going to be
standing there with their phones in their hand, filming their
stupid faces sweating. Correct.
I it's it's hot in this country in summer.
Oh, yeah, I've had 4748 degrees. It's not nice.
No, it's not. So maybe I cannot understand
anybody who would want to do that because it's here.
It's a thing you want to avoid Void.
Yeah, exactly. I remember that.
I remember that day, there was a day when it was 4847.6 or
something and I was out West. In Sydney and I would literally
fill the bath with cold water, get in the bath.
Not an image I want everyone to have, but I'd get in the bath
and it wouldn't even last about 20-30 minutes and that water
would be almost hot. It was really warm and I'm like
get out, fill it up again with cold water.
It was just insane. We didn't.
Again, we didn't have an air conditioner.
I'm so jealous of people who grew up with enough money to run
air conditioners. Yeah, you just spend the day in
the shopping center. Yeah, exactly.
Yeah. I think that's where I did end
up one of those days, yeah. Which was also packed because
that's what everyone else did. All the poor people who didn't
have air conditioning were also at those places, yeah.
Exactly. Oh, man.
Yeah, America. That's what's bad this week.
One last thing I'll throw in for what's bad is the estate.
The Prince estate finally released.
This little was it. A single whatever.
It was all that they released. Some all shared together now or
whatever it's called and some other version of seven from
simple album and it's it's just not great the the song of the
sound quality. Yeah, one of the tracks.
I think it might have been fixed, but the original version
of one of the songs, which was on I think iTunes was in mono.
OK, that might have been fixed now.
I think maybe the Spotify or somewhere else versions were
both stereo. And then there were all these
tweets that went out with spelling mistakes and they
couldn't even spell legendary. Seriously, you can't.
I do. You know, I know exactly.
I know exactly who this is. As Ken Jong likes to say, Do you
remember a year or two back when they were advertising for they
wanted to hit social media? Social media person to handle
all this stuff and they got it. And they got it.
They have got it more than they could have ever wished, right?
Yeah. Man, it is just so.
It's so. It's so embarrassing.
It's just total amateur hour. Like they cannot even spell who
doesn't check a tweet. It wasn't even a tweet.
It was. It was an image that that
actually mocked up with words. Even if you can't spell it,
there's a thing called spell check.
How could they not even use it? What is wrong with people?
Well, you know, I'm not that really outraged because like it
like I've, I've just fallen so far off from, yeah, Princeton,
yeah. It's just a bunch of people sent
it to me. A bunch of people have sent to
me all these things and I'm just like, oh, if they hadn't sent it
to me, I wouldn't even know and I wouldn't be angry.
And This is why I don't follow any of this crap anymore,
because it's just, it's infuriating.
And I'm not saying don't send it to me because I do like to know
what's happening, but it's just, oh man, just it's so amateur.
It's it's sad. Yeah.
Anyway, did anybody die? Did anybody die?
We got to laugh. People died, OK, the biggest one
which Australians will know is Alan Wilkie.
Oh, the weatherman, yes. I'll read a little thing here.
I found pioneering weather presenter Alan Wilkie, heralded
as the first weatherman on Australian TV, has died at age
94. He began with a ball he began
with ABC News in 1956, while then he went to Channel 7 in
1968. Then 9 News in the in the late
70s. Where he did the news, the where
he did the weather for more than 25 years.
And yeah, he retired late 90s, I think.
Yeah, I remember when I was a kid, he was a weatherman.
And he would like, you know, how now they stand in front of these
fancy electronic screens with that, he had the cardboard
screen with like, the little. And he had his stick.
Yeah, any stick. And he would point the stick,
yeah. There's a cloud.
There's the sun. There's the rain.
Yeah, He's my little magnet. Bang.
I love it. I love it.
And he'd be cool if Weatherman could go back to and you know
where the presenters go back to? That sort of that reminds me.
That'll be like there's a Steve. Even King Book, it might be
called Cell, where like there's some sort of magnetic pulse and
it renders everything electronic just dead on the whole Earth.
So then they would be doing it with the stick and a cardboard
map. But then there's no cameras or
any TV, so there's no point. They'd just be out of the
street. Yeah, just going around with
their bat all it's going to rain tomorrow.
But yeah, it used to be Alan Wilkie doing the weather and
Brian Henderson doing the news, Channel 9.
Correct. And they did it together
forever. Dynamic.
Like at least 25 years. Yeah.
Brian Henderson was another one who died a couple years ago, and
he was on TV again since the start, since the 50s.
Yeah, Bandstand. He did Bandstand, which was like
a music show. Yeah, it would have been weird
actually, if you were around then and then watching.
That's right, end up being the main guy on the news, right?
Like the most respected news guy that there is started out on
this music show with all the hip young teenagers and it would
have been weird to see that transition.
Very weird. Anyway, that's sad.
Who else? Many.
Toe. Which probably he could.
Only Star Trek people are gonna know he was like a showrunner.
Whatever that means. I don't even know.
For Star Trek Enterprise. That was the one with Scott
Bakula as the the main guy. He died like a tecular, yeah.
Yeah, he also did stuff on 24 Dexter, American Horror Story.
He did lots of stuff. He died and he was he wasn't
old. He was like in his. 50s I think.
OK. That's all the ones this week.
But then I've got like, the anniversary ones.
And here's one I didn't even know 2020.
Kelly Preston died at 57 years old.
She didn't get 58. Kelly.
I didn't even know she died. Wasn't she with like John
Travolta? Yeah.
Yes. Yes.
Yes, That's right. Yeah.
I was thinking about the name was Yes.
She was, Yeah. He's had a bad time.
He had had a bad time. Think about it.
He's lost Kelly Preston. He lost Kirstie Alley.
He lost Olivia Newton John. Yeah, like, plus he, I think
he's got like a disabled son. Think he has had rough time.
Plus he's in in Scientology. I mean, can he?
Yeah, So if. He's in Scientology.
He probably thinks everything's great.
Probably. They've all gone off to meet
Xenu. They're having a great party.
Everything's fine. Yeah.
Charlie Murphy, 2017, five years ago.
Wow. And 20 years ago, Barry White.
I was trying to think. I didn't remember when he died,
but yeah, it was 2003. Wow.
And how old was he? 58, exactly.
Wow. It is amazing how often this
number comes up. Yeah, it's so true. 3030 years
ago this week. Fred Gwynn, Do you know that
name? No.
Herman Munster. OK, he was in.
Yeah, he was in the Monsters, obviously.
Pet cemetery. Great Stephen King movie.
My Cousin Vinny. He did lots of stuff.
He was 66. Yeah, that was 30 years ago.
Wow. That's just that's odd.
That just sounds odd. Yeah.
But here's these the big 150 years ago.
Betty Grable, do you know the name?
Yeah, I have a Betty Grable to me is like a name, Like, like
Cary Grant. Like, I know the name, I guess.
I guess he was an actor. I guess she was an actress, but
I don't know anything. I didn't see the movies.
Yeah, but she was basically like the Pamela Anderson of the day.
She was like the big Pin Up girl that everyone had posters of.
Right? Like the biggest sex bomb in.
Or two time. Everyone had the poster.
Yeah, everyone had the years ago.
It's crazy. Geez.
But anyway, that's Did anybody die?
MMM, yes, some people died. Let's go straight to
recommendations. I need our recommendation.
You have a recommendation. I have a recommendation for you.
Do you have a recommendation? I'm just gonna throw in there at
John Farnham, Song called In Your Hands.
Bang, Bang. He's on the mend, isn't he?
He's a recovery, recovery. This is the one thing I don't
like, but I also understand him and his family are super.
Private. Like, yes.
Nothing. You don't hear anything.
Like, we've literally had two updates since it came out that
he had cancer, right? They're like, we'll tell you
when something happens. So I'm guessing he's getting
better, but no one actually can confirm anything because nobody
knows until they say something. We can just hope that he's
getting better, right? So that's one recommendation.
Yeah, that's all I got in your hands.
That's all you got. OK, It's.
Good song 1990 from the Chain Reaction album.
That's a good one. What have I got for
recommendation? OK, there's a song called Ready
for the Summer by Disco Boogie. That's my first recommend day.
Yeah, Disco with a K Di SKO Boogie.
Disco Boogie Ready for the Summer.
And the second one is called Tie Me Up from Zacky Force Funk,
which I've mentioned here before once before.
New track. They're my two recommendations.
Very funky tracks. Oh, you know, last show I think
it was, Lisa said Go and listen to like the cactus.
Yeah. Blossoms or something.
I went and listened to a couple of songs.
Man, they're. OK, not something I'd go back
and listen to. I see the appeal.
It's just not something I'm gonna listen to.
But it was. OK, I don't stop
recommendations. I always want recommendation.
Because of course I keep saying all the new music's garbage.
So if anybody can convince me otherwise.
Go ahead, send me songs to listen to.
I'll listen to anything anyway. That's it.
So, wow, we're already at the end.
What did you learn this week? Oh.
Good question. I, you know, the dumbest thing.
I know this happens at every episode, but every time we get
to it, I'm like, oh, geez, let me think.
Like I never like. I write down loads of other
stuff to say, Well, I never think to write down this part.
And every time we get to it, I'm like, oh, I don't know.
Well, he he might be a suggestion.
You learnt this week that when you get a Euros to check if it's
got chips or not. Maybe that's what.
You learnt this week? Yes.
OK, ask before ordering. I wanna get the EUR.
Does it have chips inside? Correct?
If not, can you put chips inside?
Yeah, that's what I love for chips.
Yeah, see, it's just you just forget sometimes.
Like, I know if I go to McDonald's and I buy like a Big
Mac meal, if it's not a busy time, you could get some fries
that have been sitting there for 15 minutes in the thing.
And they're they're covered in salt and they're not great,
they're all soggy and rubbish. But I know if you just order
fries with no salt, they cook them fresh because they have to.
But if I don't buy fries for ages, I forget to do that.
And then I just can end up with some garbage fries.
If they're that bad, I'll just take them back and say this is
crap. Give me some new ones.
Yeah, I got no problem doing that.
Don't give me something to be hard to standard soggy, yeah.
Yeah, Where's the crunch? Where is the crunch?
It's all about the crunch. Yeah, I learned.
What exactly did I learn? Don't.
Again, it's just my brain. I forget.
The point is, remember to ask questions.
Don't be afraid to ask questions, but remember to ask
the questions. That's that's my problem.
I'm not afraid to ask them. I just don't think, remember,
yeah, I don't think, oh, I want that thing.
I have to make sure that that thing is what it's going to be.
But I just don't think. I just expect.
And this is the thing assume that makes an ass out of you and
me. As everybody says, don't assume
that you're going to get. What you expect to get because
you'll be disappointed a lot if that's the way you go through
life, absolutely. You have to check because
there's a lot of idiots out there.
There's a lot of useless people. There's just a lot of really
useless people. And you have to make sure, like,
I I got when I, you know, when I got that double KFC deal, when
she handed it over, I opened it up and I'm like, I'm just going
to check everything's in here. I don't want to get home.
Yeah, find out something missing.
And she looked at me like she was offended.
And it's like, yeah, no, what can I do?
Yeah, I'll be way more offended than that if I get home and
something's missing. Yeah, So I don't care.
Look at me with that face. I don't care.
And I checked it. But two burgers and chips, Yeah,
all. They're perfect.
Good stuff. Good See ya.
But. Never leave a store.
Even in drive through. Never leave until you have
checked everything is in that bag.
This is what there's so many things I can teach.
I'm, I'm a teacher. It's a teaching moment.
Think of it like that. Do you know when you go to all
these stupid corporate and the meetings and bullshit they
always have this teaching moment garbage?
Yes, you've made a mistake. But look, we can turn this into
a teaching moment and it's like, why don't you shove that up your
backside mate? I'm so glad I don't have a job
anymore. I don't work well in those
environments anyway. What did you learn?
What did I learn this week? This is what I learned.
Don't ever record a Peach and Black episode every game because
others will pass it off as their own work.
It keeps happening. It keeps happening.
We don't need to point out who and where anybody with the brain
can see it anyway. That's it.
Wow, we've reached the end of
the Reach, the end of the show, and we'll see you.
We've done it again. We'll see you next time.
Thanks for tuning in. Send us an e-mail.
Let us know that you're out there from the four.
Corners. The Four Four Corners of the
globe. We'll catch you next time.
Bye, bye. 58.
