Starting point is 00:00:00 A listener production. Hello, Zach. Hello, Mark. And hello, listeners. We have a very fun podcast for you today, don't we? We are doing a podcast without Broden, without a script, without a structure, without scaffolding. It's gonna be bad. And why don't we hear how bad? Right now. And why don't we hear Hellbad right now? Hello, welcome to the Aunty Donna podcast welcome welcome welcome welcome welcome welcome welcome Broden is not here Broden has a prior appointment Broden couldn't make it I was meant to organize a guest, but I didn't we've replaced
Starting point is 00:00:52 Broden if you want to see what we've replaced Broden with I'm not gonna tell you if you're just listening because for that you got To head over to Patrion.com The Aunty Donna Club or just Aunty Donna Club. I don't know I can't remember It's just Aunty Donna Club. just Aunty Donna Club. I don't know, I can't remember. Just Google. It's auntydonaclub.com. We bought the URL. Auntydonaclub.com, check that out. It's one of my last. It's not the auntydonaclub.com.
Starting point is 00:01:09 I can't remember. It was one of my last things that I did before we hired other people to do this sort of thing. Just Google it. Don't be lazy. Just Google it. Just as easy. And then you just click through,
Starting point is 00:01:21 just Google Aunty Donna and Patreon. If you want to see the hilarious thing. We put Broden's face, we printed, well we didn't, our staff did. Yes. Our staffers. Yeah, we have, believe it or not, it takes many hands and many minds to make the Auntie Donna podcast run on the combustion engine. And instead of oil, we use giggles.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Our engine runs off giggles and the power and ad spend. There's a beautiful sales team over here at Listener who are working relentlessly to make us the money that we fucking deserve for doing this Yeah, we think about it. We usually we write scripts. We have ideas anyway Someone printed out Broden's face stuck it to the microphone. Yeah, it's not that good You know, none of you's was it was Nick. Did Nick do it or Nick did and then and then To go through it Nick printed it out. I don't know whose idea it was, but I'm pretty sure we've done it before.
Starting point is 00:02:29 It was Nick's idea. Nick did it. Nick printed it out. Lindsay came in, put it on there. Nick came back in, just slightly just kind of tweaked it or in the film industry, because I guess we are filming this I would say this term so any film heads out there or any teamsters would know that we just came in cheated it to the left. Cheated it.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Cheated it to the left a little which usually just means moving something slightly to the left or the right. For various reasons film heads out there, cinephiles will know what I mean, but probably more teamsters. Teamsters are truck. You know, uh, or just people, you know, just general crew, your gaffers, your grips, your best boys. They're gonna know that sort of thing, cheating it.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, so here's the story. That's the origin. That's the law. A lot of you probably don't know the inside of it. You know, we try and kind of shield you from it. It's no, you don't want to ruin that movie magic.
Starting point is 00:03:35 And you call it movie magic. Yeah. It's movie magic. It's magic. There's magic to it. There's magic in the air. Uh, in a way, this is a movie. What?
Starting point is 00:03:44 This? Oh yeah. There's moving images for some people. Most is, in a way, this is a movie. What? This? Oh yeah, these moving images for some people. Most people just listen to it. Yes, yes, yes. The ones that don't cough up those, those bucks. Cough up those dollars. We understand, and we love the ones that do. But we love all our fans equally.
Starting point is 00:04:02 All of them equally. But. But when you... Well, no, all all our fans equally all of them equally um but but when you well no all of them But if you are a patron mm-hmm I Just cannot can someone get me a piece of paper Basically I want to write I actually love you more to the patrons and then so they can visually see it I'm sure I'm a piece of the patrons'm just trying to find a piece of paper.
Starting point is 00:04:26 To the patrons, I don't have a piece of paper or a pen, but can you imagine I've written I actually love you more, right, and I'm holding that up to the camera so you can see that. But to all the listeners, forget I just said that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, the ones, the patron ones, they're the ones who you're keeping the mics on. And that's a little turn of phrase that I've twisted and manipulated to suit the podcast. Because usually it's to keep the lights on in reference to electricity bills, which are soaring. Now we've got Lindsay outside, our producer.
Starting point is 00:05:00 How are you doing, Lindsay? Very well. Now you're our producer, yeah? Yep. Now Lindsay, I meant to check this with you before we did this podcast, but I have made the decision to go full Kyle and Jackie O. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:19 So you are now going to be a character for this podcast and I'm going to make you do questionable things for the content. We are... No, I'm just joking. No. But yeah we don't want to do shock jocking. We're not shock jocks. In fact we let Lindsay do the hard work behind the scenes. We thank the team at listener but we don't make them this bad. We don't make... You just do the make the content. Let's just talk... We're not gonna call on Jackie O'Hare. Don't worry about that.
Starting point is 00:05:52 We never would. We respect you too much. To ever do that to you. And to our dear listeners. To our dear listeners, we are going to go more shocking though. Yes. We are tired of being soft. We are too soft, too soft, everyone's too soft. Yeah, yeah, everyone, it's like everyone's made out of, it's like everyone's John C. Riley in Chicago.
Starting point is 00:06:21 And they're made out of, I mean, cellophane's not soft. No, it's quite, it's quite, it's quite, it's quite, it's quite crispy. It's more about being noticeable. I always notice cellophane. If there's cellophane in a room, I'm like, wow. Yeah, especially if it's a, well, if it's a, he never says if he's a colored cellophane, if he's like a blue cellophane or an orange cellophane. But even if he's a clear cellophane, if he's cut up into little strips, I think party time.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Well yeah, but if he's one solid piece of cellophane that has been hung from the taut, it's tight and it goes all over, you know, across the roof, all the way down the walls like a giant window and the lighting is just right, I can imagine a scenario, a very particular scenario, where I would just see through the... but then no I think just cellophane you see through anyway and that's more the metaphor. Not so much that you don't notice it, more that you just see through it and it doesn't. If someone stood up in a crowd and raised his voice up where I'm not. Where I'm designed to be. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:28 I don't know the words. I just want to say we're not going to go full Kyle and Jacio. We're not going to do that. There will be no pissing and recording of the pissing and whatever it else. Did they record pissing? They got their staffers, their female staffers to piss and they recorded it and then they made other people guess who pissed. We're not not gonna do that. We're better than that. We are better than that. We are above that. We are... I don't know if we're above it but it is...
Starting point is 00:07:56 We're... A bad choice. It's a bad choice. We are around the middle. We fall somewhere between ABC and Kyle and Jackie O. Yeah. Closer on the spectrum to Kyle and Jackie O. Yeah, we're not that dissimilar. We just don't put at risk, I guess, the lives and the reputation of the people that work for us. If we were to do a pissing guessing thing,
Starting point is 00:08:29 the first piss clips that would be recorded would be the three of ours. Yes, I would never expect Lindsay or Nick to piss into a bowl and record themselves if that was something I was not willing to do myself. And in fact, ever. Ever. Ever. No staffers of ours, unless they want to. Unless they are fucking begging for it.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Unless we do a yearly review and we sit down with any of our staff at Aunty Dada or Haven't You Done Well Productions and we say,, we wouldn't say this. Georgia, our general manager would say this. Say, what is it that you wanna get out of the new year? What do you wanna get? More listeners, we want more people tuning in. Or if they say, oh, I'd love more responsibility around editing or maybe I wanna do more around the social media stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:21 If, and Lindsay's not our staff, Lindsay is a staff member of Lysner. Yes, we don't pay Lindsay's wage. We work with Lysner. Yeah, yeah. But if one of our staff members said, in that meeting said, well, one thing I would love to do is piss
Starting point is 00:09:35 and record my piss and have people guess. Yes. I think we would be open to accommodating that, but they would have to bring that to the table. It would need to come from them. We are not the kind of bosses who would demand the recording of the piece. Even ask. Or ask.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Or ask. I would never ask. But I also want to be very clear. We are not the kind of bosses that would reject or curtail our staffers' desire to record themselves pissing. I think that's a, it's a noble, it's something noble to aspire to, to want to record yourself pissing and then have someone else be able to guess whether it was you or not. That is some, that is a source of pride for some people. And if one of our staffers, Jim, if one of our staffers came to us in a desperate plea to have the sound of him pissing recorded and then have our audience try to guess whether it was...
Starting point is 00:10:49 I think they were coming to the studio and they guessed. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. Try to guess whether it was him or another one of our staffers, not one of us. But if Jim went, I just want to know if a listener of this podcast could be able to tell the difference between me pissing and another staffer, then in that very particular scenario. Can I actually say what I would say to Jim in that circumstance? I'd say Jim, I respect
Starting point is 00:11:21 your desire to piss and record it. Can I have to check with Jim? Lindsay, make a note to check with Jim that he's okay with this episode. Now I would say Jim, we can beep the name out. I think Jim would be all right with it. Oh, he'd love it. The last time I was speaking to him, he was asking about recording his piss. I would say Jim.
Starting point is 00:11:44 See if other people could come in and guess whether it was him or not. I said, Jim, if you want to record your piss and have people guess if it's you pissing, go for it. Well, I would also say, oh no, go. I have a but. But, Jim. But.
Starting point is 00:11:59 And a big but. And actually an and. And if you want to do it on our time and on our podcast, yes, but you've said you want them to compare your piss sound with the piss sound of another staffer. Well, yeah, he said he wants them to be able to guess whether it was him or not. And I would argue to Jim, I would say to Jim, I go, Jim, that's all very well and good. And we are happy to accommodate you, you know, whatever you need.
Starting point is 00:12:32 That's what you need. If that's what you need. But if you're the only one. And I would say, Jim, I, in my position of power, am not comfortable asking anyone else to piss in order to have this guessing game. So you're going to have to take that up with your union rep. Who is you? Who is you, Jim? And you're going to have to work with the staff and I'm going to need multiple staff members coming to me with this request.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Minimum two. Minimum two. Minimum you and someone else. Otherwise... And I don't want to know that you're pressuring them into this either. I want... Yeah, check, you know, I check his drawer for knives every morning to make sure that there's no violent threatening of the other staff.
Starting point is 00:13:22 This is not because he's done this. No, no, no. This is just if he's done this. No, no, no. This is just if this would happen. This would be any staff member. If any staff member. Well, this is a note to any boss. Any boss. Any way is to check your staff's drawer for knives or sharp objects, shivs, things that
Starting point is 00:13:38 could be fashioned into knives, just to see if there's any sort of threatening of physical violence to get other people into a piss competition, a piss sounding comparison competition because look, you know, when we started, we never wanted to be bosses. That's not why we got into this. We got into this to be comedians. Blosses. Blosses? And there was a huge misunderstanding. So I said I'd like to be a Bloss and then other people were like alright well then let's set up a production company and I wouldn't say I am a Bloss. What is a Bloss? It's not a thing and that's on me for making up a thing
Starting point is 00:14:23 that has no meaning. Yeah, you know I I said I want to be a Bloss. And when people would say, what does that mean? I'd say, I don't know yet. Right. But we'll find out. Yeah. And that's what it's about. We'll find out and that's what it's about.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Full disclosure, I know some of you are listening thinking, wait a second, Kyle and Jackie O pissing. This is all sounds a lot like 2024 news, but it's 2025. Well, we've got a secret. We've been holding onto this podcast. We haven't banked any other podcasts that we've been holding onto this podcast. We are coming to you live from 2024.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Yes, we are. And it is a crazy time. Let me tell you that much. You probably don't remember it very well. No. 2024, baby. Yeah, but back on Jim wanting us to listen to him piss and compare it to other staff members.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Yeah. You're going to check, are you going to just sit down with Jim and tell him that this was the bit? Yeah, I'll probably mention it. I'll probably just say, hey Jim, I'll pop into the office, into the edit room and just be like, hey, man, we just mentioned your name on the podcast. Is that cool? And you'll probably be like, yeah, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I'd say Jim. And I'll record that. And so that then if he comes up later, then I can go, you actually said it was fine. So you have, you don't have a leg to spare. Because Jim's a great editor. Incredible. Jim edited my music video that I did outside of Auntie Donna and really well. Yes, beautifully edited. Beautifully shot. Well, that's irrelevant to this conversation.
Starting point is 00:15:52 I was trying to compliment your work on it. Well, I didn't shoot it. Jesse Visaya's leap shot it. But you helped set up the frames. Well, yes, I did do the- And it was your concept. I did do the- Thank you. But it was edited by Jim and this is what I want to say. I want to say Jim is an asset to the team and if Jim feels slighted by becoming a riff about pissing, I worry that Jim could leave and go to the Kyle and Jackie O Show. Well yeah, because that's where he'll be able to do this thing that he desires so much. In a hypothetical situation, let's make it very clear, Jim has never once yet come to us, but he told me he will. Are you familiar with the concept of divergent evolution?
Starting point is 00:16:34 I think that's the word for it. I think I've only seen the second one. So there's five different crabs. Do you understand this? So there's five different crabs and they all became crabs on their own. Right. You understand? So did I, but I don't see the point.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Well you became a crab. On my own. Well then there's six crabs. Right. So you don't understand what I'm saying? There's like a hundred crabs. But there's six crabs. But five of those crabs aren't related to each other.
Starting point is 00:17:01 So there's five crabs. Nature loves crabs. Nature loves crabs. Yes. So whatever's five crabs. Nature loves crabs. Nature loves crabs. Yes. So whatever you are, evolution loves crabs. Oh God. Three wings. You understand? There's three wings. Three wings? The dinosaurs with wings, the bats, and then there's wicked wings, and the birds with wings, and the insects with wings. Four wings. Four wings. All separate wings. What about Valkyries?
Starting point is 00:17:28 Oh, I don't know. Valkyries are mythical being. Well, then it doesn't evolve. Yeah. Mark, are you familiar with this five crab concept? I mean, to an extent. I'm aware that there are different crab forms that aren't, yes, that come from different evolutionary
Starting point is 00:17:45 paths. Yeah they all became crabs on their own. Yes. Do you know what that means? Um. You too can become a crab if you wish. You Bono? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Wow. All of them. Wow. They can all become crab. The edge? He can't. Really? No.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Fuck the edge man. Yeah he can't become a crab. No crab become a motherfucker. Yeah. Fuck the edge, man. Yeah, he can't become a crab. No crab becoming motherfucker. Yeah. I hope the edge doesn't listen to this because... He'd be so upset to hear this. He would be. He'd be like, I could become a crab if I wanted to.
Starting point is 00:18:14 It's like, nah, man. I'm a rock and roll star. No. I'd like to become a crab very much. If this podcast leads to the edge having plastic surgery and becoming some sort of crab like monster just to prove us wrong to all the YouTube fans out there, I am sorry. Sorry, because he won't be able to play a guitar. Well, with the way he plays the guitar, it's mostly effects and that stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:38 He'd probably be able to figure it out. If he left one hand, if he left at least one hand, a non-crab claw. Well do you want to find out? But then is he truly a crab? Do you want to find out? Let's go get him. Hello there, it's me, The Edge. The Edge, how are you? Hello, I'm The Edge, I'm The Edge, I played the guitar for you two. Edge.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Hello. We said something about you on one of our most recent podcasts. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah and uh... Oh, say that Lily. What? Oh, I used to do... we used to be like a pop-pop band and then we teamed up with Defiantino and... Yeah, look, yeah, we're not... yeah, look... So to create at Stadium Rock.
Starting point is 00:19:15 We're not here to discuss the history of your band, you two. Right. Right? We're not here to... Then we did some good stuff in the 90s. Sure, but then you also made everyone who had an iPod... Was that so bad? They had to have your album on their phone. I was bitching on about that.
Starting point is 00:19:33 I wouldn't have wanted it on there. It pissed me off. You needed to delete it, right? What? You couldn't. Oh, you couldn't. No, you made it so you couldn't delete it. That's what you did.
Starting point is 00:19:41 You did that. Have you had the curry chips, the Chinese chips that everyone's talking about? Yeah, like a spice bag. Yeah, a spice bag. You did that. Have you had the curry chips the chip the Chinese chips Oh, yeah, like a spice bag. Yeah spice bag Now listen the edge you recently had a conversation on one of our most recent podcasts about how are you aware of the fact? That there are five different crabs Right five different crabs. Yes, andling around. Yes. Unrelated. Jesus, Mother Joseph. Jesus, Mary and Joseph. What are you doing there little crab? Oh,
Starting point is 00:20:12 what are you doing little crab? That's what she said. Yeah, five different types. Five different crabs, all on their own. All on their own. They all become crabs on their own. Yes. We are of the firm belief. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We are of the firm belief. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We. That you, unfortunately, even though evolution loves a crab,
Starting point is 00:20:29 that you, despite your best efforts, doesn't matter how hard you try... Can't become a crab, yeah. Yeah. It's true. Really? You know this? Barna can become a crab. Yes. Adam can become a crab.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Yes. Donald O'Han can become a crab. Yes. I can't become a crab. No, but do you understand why? Ah, Jesus Mary Joseph, I'll tell you crab. Yes. Yes. I can't become a crab. No, but do you understand why? Oh, Jesus Mary Joseph, I'll tell you why. Okay. Because I am the edge. You're the edge? No, I'm the edge. Oh, you're the edge. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What is that? How does that? What? That's your name? I'm not a man, you see. Oh, you're the edge.
Starting point is 00:21:01 You're an edge. I'm the edge. You're the edge. I'm all edges. Have you ever edged? Edging? Yeah, that's all I do all the time. That's all you do? I'm edging every day. Really? Every day I'm an edge. Really? I'm the edge.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Have you ever climaxed? No, no, no, no, I'm an edge. Don't have a willy. I'm an edge. Right. You see the edge of that table there? I am that. You are all edges. See the edge of that table there? I am that. You are all edges.
Starting point is 00:21:27 See the edge of that television screen there? I am that. I am the edge. This is an exclusive for the Anti-Donate podcast. What was it like writing Spider-Man the Musical? We weren't really that involved in it to be honest. We sort of did the songs and then we were on tour and then the whole show fell apart. Probably needed to like take some time off and actually focus on the musical if I'm being honest. But let's be real here, it's a musical about a spider-man.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Not that good. Tell you what would make a good musical about Jesus, Mary and Joseph. That would make a great musical. The nuns and the priests and whatnot. Yeah right. Although they don't like the priests and the nuns as much in Ireland anymore. This is an outdated cliché by about 20 years. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I love Guinness. I'm sure you do. Well, the end- Never pay a tax in my life.
Starting point is 00:22:19 What? Don't pay tax. It's a true story. You just don't pay tax. Have you heard about this? No. So the Irish government, in order to encourage more artists in art, they made a thing where if you're an artist you didn't have to pay tax. That's fucking sick. And the idea was that, you know, so to get more people making art
Starting point is 00:22:35 and get artists to move to Ireland to make it, because it was having a bit of trouble because everyone moved to Boston. That happened about a hundred years earlier. But anyway, there was no one making art in Ireland and they said, no, every artist doesn't have to pay tax, right? Which makes sense when you think of like little artists down the road making paintings or singer singing these little songs in the pub. But it also meant me, Bono, Enya, Sinead O'Connor.
Starting point is 00:23:01 All of it. Well, I don't know about Sinead O'Connor, but all of it. Enya lives in a castle, never paid tax. Fun fact about us. Well, is it still true? I think they maybe changed it, because it's a bit crazy that we do a show at the sphere and not pay any tax to the Irish government over it. I can understand to a certain point. I can understand to a certain point. Once you're living in a castle...
Starting point is 00:23:24 Pay a bit of tax. Once you're living in a castle. Pay a bit of tax. Once you're living in a castle. There. Being Enya, maybe just a couple of dollars. Enya lives in a castle? Enya lives in a castle. I think we all do, because none of us paid tax. Of course, I'd live in a fucking castle too.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I didn't have to pay any tax. Pretty cool, hey? That's awesome. I had no idea about that. Fun fact for you. And you learnt about the crabs? And I learnt about the crabs And you learnt about the crabs? And I learnt about the crabs? You learnt about the crabs?
Starting point is 00:23:48 I kind of, I'd seen that going around. Do you like U2, Mark? No, not really. I mean, there's songs, don't get me wrong, there's songs. You'd listen to Joshua Tree? Yes, I've listened to, yeah, I've listened to, yeah, First Half's great. Yeah, First Half. Yeah, and a second cousin's license plate is I Love You Too. Oh, thank you. But I never said I love you.
Starting point is 00:24:11 No, you're banned. You're banned. Oh, thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're welcome. You'd be shocked how much that happens. Yes. All the time people are saying I love you too. And I say, well, I didn't say I love you. And they say, no, you're banned. Well, that must be horrific. But you know, you don don't pay any tax so I'm sure you get over it.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I'm very rich about paying tax. Well this has been great. We were discussing something vile earlier and so I'm glad that you came in. That's what I came along to talk about, you're playing the guitar. Yeah. You know you play, do you want to know the trick? To playing guitar? Yeah you put some Brian Eno on, so it's all like, and then you, we only did this for like three albums, but it's our best albums.
Starting point is 00:24:51 And then you go, then you put on lots of effects and then you have the guitar come out of the Brian Eno. So it's like, and then it's like, every time I hear the name Brian Eno, I think of the Italian lemon tummy powder that you mix in with water called Eno. That sort of just helps your tummy. Brian Eno is the experimental electronic musician. I think there is a comparison to be drawn between the two in a lot of ways. Sort of minimalist music, minimalist 70s and 80s music. Yeah, and then sort of a powder that you put in a glass of water to settle your tummy after
Starting point is 00:25:39 a big meal. I suppose, you know, one settles the mind, one settles the tummy. No, I don't think that's it. I don't think that's it. I'm sorry, Derek. I tried, you know, one settles the mind, one settles the tummy. No, I don't think that's it. I don't think that's it. I'm sorry, dear. I tried, but I failed. That's okay. Do you have any other questions about you two?
Starting point is 00:25:52 No. Should I head off? No. Yeah, I reckon head off. Okay. But you are welcome to join us at any time. Oh, I'm back. I didn't, okay.
Starting point is 00:26:03 I didn't mean, you didn't let me finish. Right here, right here. I'm the edge from you two. Yes you are. I'm a rock and roller star. Well, I'm in a rock band with my friend, Bono. Fuck off. Okay, bye bye.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Fuck off. Bye bye. You handled that so well, Mark. Dude, at the end there he was just really starting to get up my fucking back. Yeah. The Edge is great in small doses. I'd love to meet Bono. Um, alright, well maybe one day Bono will join us.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Oh, here he is. Hi Bono. Hi. How are you Bono? Oh, you want me to play Bono? Yeah. If you want to. I can play Bono.

Starting point is 00:32:12 You're an activated almond. You're about to get eaten by that coked up, that former cokehead who lives in Byron Bay now. I said that former cokehead. Let's end on this. Zach Rewane in an attempt to speak of a specific person said that former cokehead that now lives in Byron Bay. That never, never has a man created a bigger category in order to get to someone specific for all people that live in Byron Bay or former Cokeheads.
