Hello, welcome to Buntavista episode 184.
I am Theo, and I'm here tonight as the clock strikes midnight and we welcome in the new year, 2020,
the Palindrome year.
And there's a feeling of cautious optimism in the room as we contemplate the possibilities
brought on by a new decade.
Donald Trump is nearing the end of his term.
Bernie Sanders is picking up steam in the primaries.
And it seems like the world is ready to open its heart and its arms.
With that in mind, we thought we'd share some new year resolutions for 2020. And me, well, I think I'd really love to travel more before I have a the They'd finally get over to the States when things come down there.
I'm here with Ben, who's hoping to dedicate more time to his dearest hobbies,
attending swinger parties, riding on public transport, and visiting the ICU to care for the patients,
tenderly holding their hand and speceitting their eyes, nose and lips.
if before mopping their eyes, nose and lips. That's very noble of you, Ben.
I was also going to get into just sneezing without covering my mouth.
Mm-hmm.
You know, just like as a fun prank that I did at parties?
Like, hey guys, what's this?
Hey, check this out.
Everyone turned and face me.
In fact, come a little closer. Yeah, I think it's really going to be my to be my to be my to be going to be going to be going to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be my to be my to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a tooome. the the their. their. their. tooomome. tooomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomomom. to to to to to to tooomomomom. to tooom. to to to to toe. to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be the to be the the the the the the thoeaskueueueueueueueueueueue. theask. the the the theaueueueueueueueueueue. the the the the the the thiiooooomorrow. thea. to be my year. Uh-huh. Just nothing could stand in the way. No, I can't imagine anything.
It would have to be of enormous scale to stop me. Enormous, a global scale. And Andrews here as
well, cursing Ben's name because his resolution is to get into face sneezing this year.
God damn it. Got him. I was doing it before it was cool.
Well, I mean if you're if you're getting into it and he's getting into it, maybe you guys couldn't get together and
Just sneeze in each other's faces do you reckon maybe if you were lying on your sides
Sort of 690 but only a head so that your nose in your mouth perfectly tessellated. Oh, come face to face, like a reverse denying.
Yes.
Yeah, well, no, are you 6-9ing back to back?
Phrush, this explains a lot.
This whole time we were like, fuck, this sucks.
This is really boring.
There's really nothing going on.
Get a great night of sleep.
I'll be, I'll be really looking forward to my other news resolution,
which is kind of to get over my fear of physical intimacy
with other people.
I'm going to take up the European cheek kissing thing.
Oh yes.
When I mean anybody, firmly grasp their one hand by both of my hands,
pull them in, play a big wet kiss on either side of their one hand by both of my hands, pull them in, play a big wet kiss
on either side of their mouth, as close to the mouth as I can get it without being too weird.
Yeah, I'm having to pick up an extremely sexual form of the rumbaugh.
Oh.
The super close.
The more forbidden the dance, the more, the more I'm there for it.
Lambada.
A year of the Lambada.
Yeah.
I don't think they should teach it if it's forbidden.
That's all I'm saying.
Like make up your mind, you know?
Okay.
One of the firm stances taken by the podcast,
Buntavista, don't teach the Lambada if it's forbidden.
It's either forbidden or it's not.
Hey, keep it locked up.
Make those how to do the Lombarder YouTube videos private.
Do words just not mean anything anymore?
That's what, that's some of the important concerns I have right here as the clock ticks over in the start of the year 2020. Some of the really big things I've got going on in my life. Going
into dance schools and saying, well, which is it? And refusing to elaborate on what
I'm talking about until I'm asked to leave. Well, well, as being dragged out physically. Come on!
Then they throw me, you know, horizontal to the ground, out onto the street outside.
I pick myself up, dust myself off, and then I'm just looking for the next dance school on
Google Maps and going about my day.
And that'll probably take a good month or two of your life.
So I mean, we've got, how many dance schools could there be in Cambror?
Not really big into dancing in Canberra? No, we got a footloose thing going up but I don't want to get it.
You know what footloose leads to. Anyway, we've got a lot to look to look forward to in 2020, but I think we've actually got a little dispatch from the future. And I think we should check out what people are looking to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th dancing th dancing thin dancing thin dancing than dancing to than dancing tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha tha than to dancing to dancing think we should check out what people are looking forward to in 2021.
And that leads us to the the How long can we say that one? 43 seconds?
How long can we say that one? 43 seconds? That's a long 43 seconds.
This is of course our famous and much-loved segment, the poll report.
So I thought I could give you-
In which we bring you information from the future.
Yeah. Yeah. I thought maybe we'd take a look at what people at the end of 2020 thought
2021 was going to hold for them because I thought this is a relatively interesting poll.
This is from Ipsos.
They covered all sorts of different topics, interviewing somewhere around I think 15 or 16,000
people across 30 odd countries between 23rd October and the 6th November last year.
This mothucker said October. October. It's a Queensland only month that we have.
You guys don't get that one. It's for more time drinking beers in the sun.
So I'm going to start with a little breakdown here of technology. So the answers here were divided into likely or unlikely.
These were the questions that were given.
In the year 2021, robots will look like, think like and speak like humans.
36% of people said this was likely.
What was our robot technology last year?
It was, it was like the, um...
There's the dancing dogs.
There's the dancing dogs which we all hate.
Yeah, fuck those guys.
Well it's funny because we all, we all like loathe the ones that don't look like humans.
And we hate the ones that look like humans even more.
Yeah, you know, it's, I, the one that pops in my head is that weird disembodied head with the exposed
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you can kind of see you can kind of see it all the terminated to sort of like
Like little pistons and arms and stuff. Yeah, going up and down in a neck. It's not good. Yeah, it's meant to be that like naturalistic conversation one, but it's shit. Yeah, I think of the, I thi like the th. Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, like the Japanese one that's like a little a little concierge kind of thing and it's just sort of
it's just it's just from the it's from the shoulders up and it's meant to
look like a Japanese lady except it more looks like the it more looks like the
an animatronic head that Arnold Schwarzenegger takes off in total recall
when he's trying to sneak through security, you know?
Two weeks, yeah.
I really, I feel like we're kind of like spinning our wheels on robot technology because
there was, there was nothing for ages, I mean practically what, 11 billion years or something
like that, and then we had the big wheelie base. Yeah, then asimo. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's, the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the, the the the the the the the th, of th, of th. It's th. Of th. Of th. Of th.

Yeah, then Asimo.
Then Asimo.
Yeah.
Then, then, big, big, big, big, big, big mouth, big, big mouth, big mouth, big mouth, big
biobase.
So you got, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Big mouth, bio, thoo.
tho, thi, thi. th. tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho. tho. tho. thi, thi, thi, thi, tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. thi. thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big. the, big. the, big. the, big. the, big. the, big. the, big. the, big. the the the the the the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. bass fish. Now I've been saying bass my whole life.
Referring to fish. You've been wrong the whole time. I was... Wait, I'm sorry?
You've been saying the fish is base as well? Yes, I've been saying the fish is base.
So, when people say base, for me, it's ambiguous.
Yeah, and that's quite interesting.
Could be anything.
We are, we, I don't know if I was saying this recently,
we've been watching the Sopranos for the first time.
I've never watched it all the way through before.
That's good. Well, Elor and I have been watching it.
And because it's a show that started in 1999 when I was
17, it means that the there's this prominent big mouth Billy Bass representation throughout the show.
He gets he gets given a big mouth Billy Bass at some point it starts to hold this like
it starts to hold this terrifying significance for Tony Soprano.
But it makes me think of when
I was 17, I was turning 18 in 1999, and this friend of mine I used to go and hang out at
his house of his family a lot, and they bought me a gift and that gift was a big mouth Billy Bass
when they were new, just like for Tony Soprano.
And just like Tony Soprano.
I'm unsure if you're dead or not.
And their way of explaining this gift to me was, you know, because you're funny.
You're funny.
You're a guy likes laughs.
Yeah, you like jokes.
You like funny stuff. Check this out. I got you a little like jokes you like funny stuff check this out.
I got you a little penholder for your desk and it's shaped like a toilet. Yeah.
You know because you're a guy who loves to laugh. That kind of thing and I was like
thank you so much and in retrospect I have to say they were right now.
Dope gift like awesome like if you had that right now you'd put it up above your desk. I would I would I would mount it on the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. I the like th the like the like thu thu the like the like the like th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I to th. I to to to to to to to to the like like like like to to to to to to to to to to toke like like like like like to to thek. thek. I thek. I the like awesome. Like if you had that right now, you'd put it up above your desk.
I would mount it on the wall if I could still find my original 1999 Big Mouth Billy Bass.
And we can all agree that is as far as robot technology has come.
And now what I would posit is that if you want robots that would look like, think like and speak like humans in 2021, all we really have to do is just a little upgrade to the big
mouth Billy Bass technology, make the head, instead of a flapping fish, make it Billy Zane's
head.
Give him just enough sentience to wonder whether or not he's going to be able to get to the
toilet or not before he needs to shit and just get him to recite the Rutgerhauer monologue
from the end of Blade Runner.
Bingo, it's over.
You're done.
All right, so if you're handy with home electronics, you've done a few of those Dick
Smith electronics kits.
You might have to do this, yeah.
Do it, does it, so we need Billy Zane's voice doing...
We do need to be able to synthesize his voice?
Oh, we can use that, the deep fake tech they've got.
Okay, all right, I'm gonna work that out.
This is actually not that.
This is feasible, which means you now have to do it. Billy Zane deep fake?
I mean you only have, you just, they've got the thing now where you just plug in like a couple
of hours of audio of him talking and uh, yeah, it's that easy.
Where am I going to find a couple of hours of Billy Zane talking? Um, I mean, I mean, the super cut of the phantom that's just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just thian. thian. thus a thus a thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. that thi, that thi, that's that's that's th th th th th th th th th. th thi. that's th. thi. that's th. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's is that's is that's th that's th th. th. th. th. that's th. th. th. that's th. that. that. that's that. that. that's that. that that's that that's that that's that that that's that that that. that. that. that. that. th that. that. th. th th thi. th. thantom that's just Billy Zane. Don't forget of course you could
be making this harder for yourself so you need to you can't always reach out
to Billy Zane himself and say so could could you maybe maybe her right yeah if
Billy Zane is doing cameos hey I'm just gonna need you to sing the chorus to take me to the river. No I think it's gonna be there. I thi thi. I think it's thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the this their this this their their their this this this this this this this their their this this their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to to thi to. to. tm. tm. tm. tm. tm. tm. tm. the the the the the need you to sing the chorus to take me to the river
Though I think it's got to be the tears in rain thing for sure Billy Zane is on cameo
Oh fuck Uh, currently not available, but he's got lots of positive reviews. All right. Well, he's a lovely man, you know.
Oh boy, he is.
Do we need him to do a voice, though?
No, it's his voice.
Billy's voice.
Billy's voice.
It's not going to work if you get a recording and,
and like, it sounds like Rutger Hauer.
No, no, I'm not saying he's doing Ruckahauer's voice. Like he could do it in like the style of Steve Bishami or something.
Yeah, I think the rocker-hauer thing.
If we get Billy Zane doing Roy Batti's monologue from Played Runner in Jarja Bink's voice,
it's really only going to muddy the waters.
Which so far I'm crystal clear on this concept.
So can we start this from the ground up?
So it is a big mouth Billy Bass with Billy's Ed's consciousness I'm going to do it?
No, no, no, no.
We don't need his.
That's just the face and the voice.
Yeah.
Okay. So we've made a latex motorized mechanized version of his
face on a big mouth Billy Bass it is a recording of Billy Zane from cameo of him
doing the Roy Bodey final monologue from the film Blade Runner and that is how
we will get robot technology to look and speak like humans in the year 2021.
That's right that's it that's how... humans in the year 2021. That's right.
That's that's how that's 36% of respondents were correct and the 52% who
said unlikely can suck out dicks. Yeah specifically out of spite I'm gonna.
Yeah not for fun. We'll just get those numbers up. Next question here. One of my
online accounts will be hacked into.
34% of people said that this would be likely.
They're probably right.
And the other 45 who said it was unlikely don't know that one of their accounts has been hacked into it.
I feel like probably some of my accounts have been hacked into it.
You know, like when there's a big password leak and then you just don't look into it?
Well, you've got the sites where you type your password into and it says yes or no you've been hacked so I've got I mean I've got one of them up now
and if you'd like to just tell me just I don't want to do that if you're a
hacker and you're listening to this was that have I been pooned? There is
have I been pooned by Troy someone I can think of is Troy Baker.
Can we try? Troy someone, all I can think of is Troy Baker.
Can we try, um, Latham's real email address, the one that's in that Buzzfeed article?
Oh no, 12 of my passwords have been leaked.
According to a vast hack check.
Okay, so Andrew, it's been four years. Extremely hackable.
It's been, it's been four years since the last one,
and I have absolutely changed every password that I have since then.
With the help of password manager, last pass,
password manager of the show, last pass.
I've not received any money for this endorsement.
I merely like the product.
I would be willing to receive money for this endorsement if anyone from the
good people at last pass is listening.
So I think everyone has probably been hacked at some point.
Absolutely.
But did they get hacking 2020?
No, I don't think I did either.
That's why I haven't tried to log on to my BattleNet account though, so that could
be just flapping in the breeze.
That's your main account.
And the final technology question, of course, was,
do you think that human cloning will be legalized in some countries,
with 21% of people thinking that that's likely?
That's probably one of the better outcomes of 2020 that that didn't happen, I guess.
Unless it did?
I don't know. I'm not keeping up on cloning laws.
Cloning news?
Yep.
How about a cloning feed to my various feeds?
Next up we have the society and culture section.
This is a good one.
I like this one.
How likely or unlikely do you think the following thing is to happen?
46% of people felt that they were likely to make a new friend in their
local area.
Surprise!
You're not leaving your house, mothfucker.
Higher than the 37% who felt that they would not be making a new friend?
That's so grim.
What is being like, do you think you'll make a new friend next year? No. No. Haven't for the last 30 years, don't see why 2020 would be any
different. 2021, I will say that 21 would be any different. Well, we're in 2020 on January the
first thinking about it. So, yeah, we should definitely keep sticking to that because
that won't make this cool tool for it.
Yes, we do every time, yeah.
But, um, I definitely feel like we've, we've like hung out with our neighbors more in 2020,
which has yet, are they the other ones you played Dungeons and Dragons with?
Yeah.
That's so nice.
Oh, we played a, we played wingspan with him the other night. Oh, I really wanna play that that that that that that that th play th play that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin th. thin thin thin thin thin' thin' that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. th. Yeah, th. that, that, that, that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th him the other night. Oh, I really want to play that. My sister got that.
Frens-beet is great.
My friend Ben fucking loves Wingspan.
It's really cool.
We bought it for, we bought it for my mum for Christmas because she's a keen bird watcher and
photographer and stuff and it has, and it's a beautifully designed game with like,
all these hand-painted illustrations of hundreds of different birds and stuff. And we got it out and said, okay, let's, let's, oh, these rules,
they're like rules for a real game, you know?
It's, this ain't your grandma's monopoly kind of thing.
And Elna puts on, wife of the show, my wife Elna, it's like, let's just watch this explainer on on th.. on thing and Elna puts on wife of the show my wife Elna
is like let's just watch this explainer on YouTube and we all sit down on the
couch me and her and my parents and she puts on this video from a guy who
professionally reviews and explains rule sets complex games what does he look like or
what's his name do you recall because I think. What does he look like? Or what's his name? Do you recall?
Because I think I love this guy.
Like glasses and short hair, short brown hair,
American guy.
Is he wearing a polo shirt?
Probably.
I feel like I've watched videos for him.
He's a very just a calming man to listen to.
Except, I think the issue is that this type of video is for people who play this type of game.
Because he starts the video by just explaining disparate mechanics within the game.
And I look over at my parents and they're both just like, what the fuck is this guy talking about?
Yeah, everybody loves getting the family together and then all sitting down to watch a video on rules.
Listen to a 16 minute video about rules, yeah.
And like... No, no, we can't have fun yet.
Still 10 minutes left, isn't it?
Yeah. What this video did not have was, like, until something like the 10 minute mark. What this video did not have was say like, like, what the, the, th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th not have was, like until something like the 10 minute mark.
What this video did not have was say like an overview of the objective of the game?
You know, anything like that?
So we played through it for the first time, all feeling quite terrified and disoriented
and everything.
But after the first playthrough, we all got it and it clicked,
and we realized it was much easier to grasp
than we had kind of been led to believe by this video.
And now we all love it.
It's really, really great.
And you said your parents were
Derek dedicated bird watches and photographers.
My mom is. Okay, cool. I got a friend, a good friend of the show, th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, th, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, we all, th.. We all, th... We all, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that, th. thi, yes. Your mom? Okay, cool.
I got a good friend of the show, Andrew.
Hello, Andrew.
Hi, not you.
So when I say Andrew, I need you to not say hi.
Okay, so good friend of my, good friend of the show, Andrew.
Hi.
Whose dad is also a keen bird watcher and photographer, by which I mean he asks people to take nude
photo, if he can take nude photos for them. So shout out to my friend Andrews dad.
Anyway Ben. Just to clarify, that's not what my mother is doing. Yeah, she's bird watching. Oh, she might call it
Bint watching, it's regional.
Okay.
Okay.
Next one.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, oh no.
The number of, how likely you think the following will happen, the number of people
living in big cities will shrink.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
34% of people think that this is likely.
52% think it's unlikely.
It did.
Yeah, it did.
It did.
Hmm.
Also, I was just reading about how, um, despite the fact that everybody in the US has been,
well, the people who are trying to not get coronavirus,
have basically been confined to their homes unless they are forced to go and work at their
workplace.
Despite all of that, there has been no expected baby boom of people like staying home
and getting pregnant.
So it's not like when there's like an extended blizzard or whatever
and everyone gets horny from the blizzard,
everyone has coronavirus depression, they're not fucking.
Yeah, basically, this article I was reading was saying,
no, more like a baby bust.
The levels of, the babies are busting, to be fair.
The levels of pregnancy are levels of new babies and stuff are down, let alone, not spiking.
So that's, that's fun. How likely or unlikely do you think the following will happen?
I will feel lonely most of the time. 31% think that's likely and 59 optimistic percent.
That's a big, there's a big percentage for most of the time.
Like, they don't even know that they absolutely are going to because they're going to be locked in their apartment.
This is just their life. This is an ordinary year.
Holy fuck!
My goodness.
But this, I mean, this is all taken at the end of 2020. So these people had already lived through, you know, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi all taken at the end of 2020, so these people had already lived
through, you know, at least six months of fully-fledged pandemic.
It's definitely the worst part of it.
Yeah.
Hey, how about this one?
The police in your area, horny police in your area, will treat all people equally regardless
of their differences.
33% of people with no televisions or phones.
Where's your cotton socks?
Yeah, that was all the people they canvassed in remote monasteries and things of that nature.
Yeah. Middle-aged white correspondence.
There's 56% of people saying, unlikely, having, I assume, opened
their eyes at some point in 2020.
I mean I'm cynical, but that's quite a high number.
I'm not completely aghast at 56 of people saying, hey, there might be something wrong here.
That's good.
I don't have goods the word, but...
How likely do you think following is to happen?
People in your area will become more tolerant of each other.
29% of people said, sure I guess.
And 61% of people said, no, I hate them.
Hate my neighbors.
I mean, they're probably not wrong.
Things are probably going to get worse.
So our next section here is global threats.
Dund-dun-dah.
Is that really interesting?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, as in like what we consider a threat.
Yep. Okay. So let's clear your minds for a this. Oh, as in like what we consider a threat. Wow, yeah.
Okay.
Um, so let's clear your minds for a second folks and just think about the things keep
you awake at night, the things that make you think.
That's it. Existence of humans across the globe is going to be snuffed out by blank.
Maybe yours is a big mouth Billy Zane Bass gaining sentience.
Just be clear they come with the sentience built in, so...
Um... Oh, the big mouth Billy Bass is crying all the time? It's supposed to do that.
It was one of the respondents that said, I will feel lonely all the time.
Just, it on the... it on. It was one of the respondents that said, I will feel lonely all the time, just it on the
other end of the phone.
It's all good if it's crying all the time though, and that's annoying you because it's
only got a hardwired three-year lifespan.
So.
Tell me how likely or unlikely you think the following is to happen.
A average global temperatures will increase. 75% of people said likely. With a
paltry 15% of Sky News watches claiming that it was unlikely.
There's 10% of people though that were just like no idea could go out of
the way. Not ready to take a stance. Talk to me in 2030 if we get that far.
Wait and see. What's this next one here Andrew? me in 2030 if we get that far.
Wait and see. What's this next one here, Andrew?
Okay, so again, when I said blank and you thought of threats to human life across the globe.
So like a world war or something?
How likely?
Like a terror attack, like a cloud burst nuclear blast releasing seizium 137 across
the globe, so on and so forth.
Yeah, imagine that you and your family are in your home, planks nailed across all of the
windows, you've barricaded the door, you're all hiding behind the upturned couch and what's
outside?
I don't have to imagine it, but go on.
Tell me how likely or unlikely you are for the following to happen.
We will discover that ghosts exist.
No.
I enjoy the question, but I also enjoy the thought of that being like a...
Just a super nefarious thing.
We found out ghosts. Yeah, they're in thing. We found out ghosts exist and they're arsholes. Yeah.
They're in their...
Turns out no walls can hold them.
They're in the nuclear facilities.
Yeah.
I can't, like I just, I really need to stress that this poll is about what people think will
happen in 2021, not in the future in general, that this year, out of all of the
tens of thousand years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years years thousan years to this year, out of all the tens of thousand years of human existence, 2021, 16% of people,
so like one in six people out of 16,000 people asked, were like, yep, I reckon it's the year.
I reckon we come up with the ghost detector.
It's that 16% that are like, well I've already seen one, this is the year that everyone's
getting on board.
65% of people said this was unlikely.
Now here's a threat that's very similar in scale and magnitude.
Humans will become extinct.
16% thought this was likely.
It's the same number.
It's exactly.
Due to the ghosts. Yeah, it's the people who think that we'll will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will will that we will that we will that we'll will that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that we'll that's that's that that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. that's that's th. that's th. that's that's that's that's thi. that's that's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the the. the. the. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the. the ghosts. It's the people who think that we'll discover ghosts are real and also they're getting
in and pushing all the buttons of the nuclear silos.
Or, well, they're the ghosts of us.
Oh damn.
Wow, this is exactly like Final Fantasy, the spirits within.
We will discover the ghosts are real when we become the ghosts.
It's like if one-third of the movie Deep Impact was the asteroid hitting and the next two-thirds.
It's just like a cast- It's the spirit's within.
You guys are just describing, uh, what's the name of the Nicholas Cage, uh, rapture movie?
Um, next? No, that's the one where we can see two minutes into the future.
Left behind? Yeah, left behind. No, next is the one where he can see two minutes into the future. Left behind? Yeah, left behind.
No, next is the one where he can see the ghosts in the future.
You know?
Oh boy, wandering around the earth being like, whatever happened to that asteroid?
Well anyway, time to continue my life as normal, Bruce Willis style.
Yep. Just like in the movie Ghost, when Patrick Swayze has to realize that he is in fact the
titular ghost.
Wait, I'm the guy this movie is about.
His famous piece of dialogue from that film.
Patrick Swayze getting to that point in the script as he reads through it for the first
time and then going, oh, turning back to the front cover.
Oh. So I get it now. I get it. I, I, I the the the th it. I th. I th. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I. I the the the the th. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I that. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I. I. I, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I get it. I'm. I get it. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'mto the front cover. Oh. So I get it now.
I get it. I get it.
All right.
I wondered why it was called ghost.
Uh, okay, so for the next one, how likely you believe it to be that an asteroid will hit the earth a slightly lower number of 15%.
Sorry. It's less likely that ghosts will become real and wipe out human existence as we know it.
I kind of feel like the... Okay, so average global temperatures, we know there's like, you know,
there's modern things happening. We know that that's quite likely.
Ghosts really existing, like Ben said, we might invent the technology. You know, we're just traveling pretty far, you know, fast and far ahead and stuff.
But like, there's no, there's nothing making it more likely than an asteroid's going
to whack into the earth next year. So are they thinking, are they living every year being
like, well, I'm probably going to get Tunguskid today.
Today's the day.
That was that other Ashton Kutcher prank show, right?
You've just been tongue.
So I'm trying to get the overlap.
So, of the humans will become extinct, 16% think it's likely.
I guess what we're really saying is that 1% of those people think that humans will become extinct,
but it's not because of an asteroid.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And this final thing, Ben, I would be very interested as to your thoughts on this,
as the resident expert of the show.
Yes. Thank you think the following global threat is to occur?
Aliens will visit the Earth 12% say yes, 69% say no.
I mean, aliens have been visiting the Earth the whole time.
Thousands, Egyptians all the way back.
Well, we've been talking to them since the 40s. I don't think think th th th think th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their their thi, their th. thi, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. their, they. thi. the 40s. I don't think the Egyptians are aliens, but that's...
Agree to disagree.
That's one of my beliefs.
Modern-day Egyptians are aliens.
The entire country...
Oh, I believe the Egyptians built the pyramids.
And I believe that aliens built the pyramids.
You're just sitting there like waggling your eyebrows.
Go on. Miming two circles overlapping. Yeah.
Don't be stupid.
Egyptians aren't aliens.
They are the descendants of aliens.
They are the naturalized citizens of the earth now.
Oh boy, I think if the aliens wanted to kill us, they would have done it by now, you know.
I think if the aliens wanted to enslave the human race,
they would have made themselves essentially invisible to our eyes
and overtaken the elite powers, and they would only be visible through a certain set of sunglasses.
Or if they were looking to enslave the entire human race, they just invent the iPhone and drop it to us.
You know how people are kind of like... Oh, damn. So this, if they they they they they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're th. th. th. thi. thi. the. the. tho. thoo. thoooo. the. thea. the. thea. thoooooo. they're they're they're and drop it to us. You know how people are kind of like...
Oh damn.
This sort of very, you know, it's quite deep commentary on how people are enslaved to their
devices and so on and so forth and just want to make sure that...
No, I, no, I own my phone.
Oh.
Like I bought it.
It's like mine. It's like my possession.
I like my possession. I'm sort of exerting my will over it. It's not a slave to you. It's quite passive.
It like the Britney Spears song. It is a slave to you.
You, do you being Ben? Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. In a dominant relationship with your phone. Yes, it is the sub.
Okay. Yeah.
And the final section we have here is outlook for 2021.
Outlook not so good.
Please indicate if you agree very much, agree somewhat, disagree somewhat or disagree very much
with the following statements.
Boy.
2021 was a bad year for my area area for my country, whatever it might be.
90% say yes.
Sorry, I was just going to point out that it says 2020 was a bad year for my area.
So looking back at the end of 2020, it's kind of a bad year.
I am optimistic that 2021 will be a
better year for me than it was in 2020. 77% of optimistic souls say yes.
We've got the vaccine. That rollout appears to be going tremendously.
And now what we're going to do is we're just going to put a pause on all the mutations.
Going to get it out there before those kind of get out of hand, which is not going to happen.
It's all good. We're going to say South Africa, knock it off. The United Kingdom, knock it off.
the United Kingdom, knock it off. Brazil, knock it off.
We've kind of got a cap on all that sort of like racial tension going on. Just put a little stopper in that bottle. The economy's looking good.
Uh, yeah.
Stock market, doing wonderfully.
That rash, probably going away by itself.
You will make a new friend.
You'll make a new friend.
They'll be kind to you. They won't judge you.
I will make some personal resolutions to do some specific things for myself or others in 2021.
75% so yes. 2020 was a bad year for me to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi the thi the thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their th. Do th. Do thi thi thi thi. Do thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the tru tru thooooooooo the the the thi thi thi thi thi thi to to do some specific things for myself or others in 2021. 75% say yes.
20% was a bad year for me and my family. 70% say yes. That's a bummer.
Like 30% of people like that. That's pretty good actually. It's on the up and up.
Yeah. Why what's the new? What's a bit? What's a what? And finally, the global economy will be stronger in 2021 than it was in 2020.
54% of people say, yeah, I guess.
Now that the market is full of workers who have respiratory illnesses, I reckon it's going to be stronger than ever.
They'll get jobs at the new game stops. So that'd be good.
And Ben, if you could just quickly explain the situation there.
So a stock is a kind of share. Right, so this is about sharing?
Imagine you playing the game Railroad Tycoon 3 and you invest in one of the other guys that's the train guys.
And then suddenly he has more money now. Which was your money. And you gave it to him.
Yeah. I think.
Yeah. I should really play Railroad Tycoon 3. Really 3 over 2? Oh, I love 3.
Oh, I love 3. Had a mysterious crash to desktop issue though that was very frustrating.

Yep, you are now across that big issue. Speaking
of being across things, let's go across the pond. To our... He's always on. Disgusting
Neighbours in England. We were talking very recently about their horrific habit of eating
jellied eagles. Yuck! Somebody, can't remember your name, sorry, I apologize, did let me know on Twitter that
I had spoken erroneously to say that you know you just you just whang some aspick in
there with them and make yourself some eel jelly and they pointed out to me that eels are
in fact a self-jellying food.
Oh the thing I said.
Yeah, like of justice is long. I thought it was a joke. I take Theo. I th that I th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very th.

I thought I thought it was a joke.
I take Theo very seriously.
Somebody else also wrote in to say this is like a joke food.
Nobody in England has eaten this for years except for like 60 year old people who were trying to prove some point about the gross shit they used to eat but that
really doesn't track with like canning millions of eels every year and
selling them to someone. No that's part of the prank.
Someone's someone's eating them surely. Is it is this like how in America they pay all that money to corn farmers to just keep making corn and they throw it out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out th. th. th. the the the their. th. their. th. their. their. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi tho tho tho tho-I their thi. they they they they they they they they they they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's. they's. they's. they's they's. they's. they're they're they're their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their their their their their their their their their the. the. the. thr-I's just just thr-I's thr-I's thr-I's thr-I's thr-I's thr-I's thrown. the. that money to corn farmers to just keep making corn
and then they throw it out or dump it on another country? They're just like we have to keep people
convinced that there is a viable jelly. Sort of a sort of like a welfare make work kind of system.
While we're in the world in the wind up for this segment, I didn't just...

The New Deal. This story is from the
BBC. The big beautiful corporation. So this this is coming to us in what is
apparently a flood of injustices taking place in England
this week.
Bolton Ice Cream Man who chased children loses license.
An ice cream man has lost his street trading license after losing his call and chasing
a group of children down the street with a stick.
Yep. Sorry, you're saying the injustices that he was punished for cha--a-chaie--uh---uh, he was punished for cha-cha'-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-a-a-ininininininininininininin, tha-in, tha-in, tha-in, this-in, this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in this-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in, thin, th Yep. So are you saying the injustice is that he was punished for chasing children down the street
with a stick?
Did he hit any of them with the stick?
Okay, all right.
The man claimed the children had thrown stones at his van.
Oh, you think that's fine, Ben?
Yes.
And he wanted to find out where they lived and tell their parents And how is the stick involved? Just in a kind of just try to get
a point across you know. But a Bolton Council Committee took a dim view of
his actions and said it was concerned with public safety. It ruled there was
reasonable cause to refuse the street trading consent. A report to the
council's licensing subcommittee outlined full details of the incident,
the local democracy reporting service said.
Minutes from the meeting said, quote,
the committee also took account of the nature of the alleged incident and two witness statements from parents
which included that the applicant wanted the children to get into the ice cream van.
Oh, okay.
And subsequently chased the children while holding a black baton in his hand.
Mm-hmm.
Who's all that listeners that are kind of sided, yep.
Unfortunately for everybody listening at home, I chose my side at the start before reading
the article.
Mm-hmm.
And as I am a man of principal, I'm going to have to stick with the ice cream man and say, hey, it's part of
the deal, you know? It's just part of the deal of the ice cream man. You get to throw rocks
at him, make him enraged. He gets down to the Billy Club. Just kind of run after you with it,
you know? That's the pact we have made in society. That's part of the back and forth, you know? He's got a little thing that plays green sleeves while he drives around.
That is the social cost.
And also, if you don't get in the van, he's coming after you.
The subcommittee found the witness statements to be credible.
The report also gave details of the ice cream man's version of events.
It said, the applicant admitted in his signed written statement that he got
out of the van to remonstrate with the children and also that he had a stick in his hand which he
had got from his vehicle. He said that he did chase them, but only to find out where they live.
Uh-huh, yep, so that's, so that's fine. What's your address? I've got this stick. I'll let you go as long as you tell you live.
Yeah.
So that he could tell their parents
what they had been doing in terms of allegedly throwing stones
at his vehicle.
In the meeting, the applicant denied elements of his written statement by saying he did not chase them and did not have a weapon. Now look, I'm I lawyer, but a rookie mistake to start off by putting
down in writing that you got out of your van, chased children with a stick to scare them
into giving their home address, and then later on to say, no. Who said that? I mean, yeah I wrote
it down, but no, come on. Why would I do that and then say I mean, yeah I wrote it down, but no.
Come on.
Why would I do that?
And then say I did it and write it down.
He fucked up big time.
In more ways than one, I guess.
Yeah, probably chasing kids with the stick was the first big fuck up.
Yeah, then?
Oh, then the second one was writing arying to later say no. I would say that was the third one.
Yeah, the third one was, yes.
Really part and parcel was the second, I think.
Yes, a great injustice has been visited upon the ice cream man.
But what of the humble bin man?
This is from the Hereford Times.
Now this, I actually do think this one is an
injustice. The ice cream man, he made his ice cream bed and he can lie in it. This one
from the Hereford Times, Hereford Bin Man refuses to apologize after kicking snowman.
A bin man who lost his job after being caught on CCTV kicking over a child's snowman
has refused to apologize, branding the boy's parents, quote, snowflakes.
And why would you apologize? You're innocent.
It's not a crime. It's perfectly legal.
It's not a crime. Also, I choose to believe that the use of the term snowflake is just a bit of funny irony.
Yeah, and not sort of signal that he's some sort of racist man.
No, I think it's more to do with kicking over a snowman.
Three-year-old Joseph Taylor was left in floods of tears after watching the worker boot the head
off his seven-foot-toll creation with a Bruce Lee-style kick.
I watch the video. It's a style kick. I watched the video, it's a pretty good kick. It's a good kick.
It's effortless I would say.
I would look like a fool if I tried to kick the head off a seven foot snowman.
Oh, his technique is flawless.
He doesn't hesitate for a second.
He just decapitates that snowman, one perfect kick.
One of the reports I read, described it as a roundhouse style kick, and I have to say the report is accurate.
100% is it a mortal combat, Lou Kang, back high kick, kick.
Yes, I would describe it as a roundhouse or perhaps more of a wheel kick.
If you guys are familiar with that one.
Nope.
The youngster and his six-year-old sister Amelia and their friends had built the snowman outside their homes last
Sunday. On Tuesday, Joseph was watching the bin men collect the rubbish from his
home in Topsley Arafood but cried out,
oh! When he saw it attacked.
Oh! Saw it attacked, Jesus Christ. The family's security cameras already suss.
Captured the bin man wearing an orange boiler suit like some kind of convict.
The bin man wearing his uniform for words.
Yes. Yes. Yeah, like they make it sound like he's escaped like transportation to
a maximum security prison.
Dressed like Michael Myers.
The family security cameras captured the bin man, take a run up before kicking the snowman
in Hampton Rise. That's the most damaging place to kick a snowman.
I don't think he really took a run up.
What I'm sorry, he just sort of strides up to it and kicks it. Yeah, no, he like pivots on the spot. It's masterful.
He then continued to empty the green wheelie bins with two colleagues
before turning back to the snowman where he launched a flurry of kicks, sending it toppling over.
This article is written in a very hysterical tone.
A flurry of kicks. He does like two kicks to the torso of the snowman So flurry he has brutally murdered this snowman
Sorry about my chickens by the way
Yeah, they are fucking going off. I thought that was fin for a second. Hold on let's have a little listen for a second
Yeah, go off girl. What are their names there? We don't have to go into that. No, we do come on. I think we need to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their tho. to. tooooooooooooooooooooooooom. tooooooo. tooooooo. their their their their their their names, Theo? We don't have to go into that. No, we do. Come on. I think we need to tell the listeners. I think the chooks. Just in case they're personally identifiable.
What, you're kind of docks your chickens? I hate to say this, Theo, but we're not moving on until we establish the names of the chickens.
All right. They're called Rogue and Jubilee, all right? Right, and those are sort of just random, sort of words that you picked, are they sort of
from something?
Then you and I both know that it's a reference specifically to the 1990s, X-Men cartoon.
Yeah, not the comics, you thinne, therea.
Yeah, not the comics, because you never read the comics. You did love the thanga. Banger. Banger. tha. tha. tha. tha. th. thi. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thi. that, tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thooooooooooooooooo. the. the cartoon. Banger of a theme song. Absolutely! Oh it does bang that's right let's deflect. Rogue and
Jubilee from the X-Men and so is this maybe like Caitlin's really big into the
X-Men or something as well like you both are? No I don't think she's
ever seen so that's kind of just you you you chose this. Out of like all of the types of books and movies and television, anything that you've ever possibly consumed
what related to you the most, the thing that occurred to you, that was, it was from the X-Men cartoon, that you watched the child. Two other ladies from it. Well, they're too much, I guess that makes that that that that watch the child. Two of the ladies from it. Well they're too much
chickens I guess that makes sense. Just to take the attention off Theo's chickens
for a second we have some relatively new chickens and their names are pickle and penguin.
Oh those are good names. And you can call them in it whatever you want because they're
named by children. Well we didn't we didn't name them we got them from somebody else who was giving their chickens away
And so they came with the names and as we all know
Chickens you know if you if you try and change their names after the fact they're gonna get a severe identity crisis. Yeah, well, they won't they won't respond to it their names anymore. Yeah, not like the way they normally respond to Yeah, the tho, they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they won't they won't they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to they they to vocal commands, you know. But yes, we got these
chickens from a lady who already had a whole bunch of chickens. She also had a
border collie and she was like, the border collie is fine with our chickens. It
likes these two chickens too much. Like it's just following them around very keenly
watching them all the time.
So we think we will move these chickens on before something terrible happens.
And that's how we got Pickle and Penguin.
It's a good name.
Black one and a white one.
The black one, Penguin.
So back to this horrible murder that's been committed here.
This assault on the senses of this three-year-old
child. The Bin Man has since taken to social media to defend himself and bizarrely compared the
row to a coronavirus pandemic. In a rambling Facebook post, I feel like they're really doing the
man dirty. Yeah, awful. Doing him dirty. He wrote, yes Ithe bin man dirty. Awful. Doing him dirty.
He wrote, yes I kicked a snowman.
No, it doesn't have feelings.
Yes, the people who made it, kids, have young feelings.
Let's look at the bigger problem in this world.
COVID-19.
People have feelings about this.
People are dropping dead by a virus. Think of it like this. That snowman wouldn't th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I thi, I thi, I, I thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th. th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi. thi, thi. thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin. I'm thin. thin. thin. thiiii. That snowman wouldn't be there tomorrow.
Any feelings then?
No.
I understand people made this snowman,
but it's gotta melt anyhow.
I don't understand why it has come to this.
Fine.
And here's an explanation as well of the snowflake comment.
When asked on Facebook if he would say people who were criticizing them were snowflakes, he replied, yes. So he didn't call them snowflakes, somebody prompted him to say, would you call them snowflakes?
I bet it was this fucking, Wormy, fucking Herifid Times journalist. Yeah, just commenting,
ooh, would you call them pathetic little snowflakes? Would you call them little snowflakes? Um, but the, to me, it's this, this combo of things, right thinks, right thinks, right thinks, right thi things thi things thi things thi? thi.. thi. thi. Like, thi, thi, the the kind, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. Would, th. Would, thi, thi, thi, th. Would, th. Would, th. Would, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, th.. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, the th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to to to to to to thi. So, to thi. to thi. thi. So, thi. So, me it's this combo of things, right?
Like this makes me think of the kind of person who, you know when like you get a bin man
who comes through your area and they're like a bit too enthusiastic with putting the bins
back down.
So as you look down the street, like they're all lying on their side, they've just
kind of been cast back into the, back into the nature strip. I'm not in the hat today of telling bin people how to do their jobs.
Well that's what I'm saying. Oh it's a bit too hard, Jesus Christ, listen to yourself.
Well what I'm saying is this to me is the type of person who would see of a bin that I didn't pay for down on
its side.
Your truck scared my shit zoo.
Yeah, I'd better get the authorities involved.
And like, using the CCTV cameras that you have set up outside your house, which I'm sure
was put there theoretically in the event of capturing a crime in progress and then you've
said this is close enough to a crime I've I've witnessed an emotional murder
sir my child was upset for a moment your three-year-old is going to be
upset about some things what you would say to your three-year-old
in this circumstance is, oh it's a shame. That's not good. Would you like a
transformer toy? Yeah. Imagine... Do kids see the transformer toys? I think they do. I
remember the one that had like a little tape in his chest? Soundwave? Yeah.
Yeah. Founcing. Fuck, that was so good. Uh, some of those little counting blocks?
What do you call them?
Counting blocks.
Cunisare what?
What?
I don't know what you call them.
Theo, can I recommend to you watching the movie Bumblebee?
You can?
But you won't.
It's not going to happen.
It was like a standalone transformer movie they made after the Michael Bam.
No, he's aware of it.
Yeah, it's fun.
It's fun.
It's nice.
And it's got sound wave in it and he sounds fucking cool.
Has it still got the ones that are like stand-ins for urban youths?
Like doing like, outdated racist drive talk? I believe you mean the, uh, the like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, thi, thi, thi, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, they. the, they. they. the, the, they. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, mean the the like pink and green
robots that were clearly, sorry I'm doing that in the book, because it's meant to
be clearly white people trying to be black. Those are the ones I'm referring to yes.
Yes so that was a fun that was a fun idea to attempt to execute. Damn!
A lot of that kind of thing.
Yeah.
To answer your question, no, there is a bubble-be in the car talk.
So imagine, imagine if you will, having CCTV cameras on your house, seeing this take place, your
three-year-old goes, my snowman, Which if we look at the footage, if we look at
the footage, there is no other snow on the street. So I don't fucking understand what
I'm looking at. Oh my god, it is grim. Like all of England, it looks like shit. It is just
a wet suburb and like a filthy snowman sitting in the driveway basically by itself not surrounded by any other snow.
And this guy's gone, oh lads check this out and done a sweet roundhouse, right?
Seeing that your kid goes, oh me snowman, as a three-year-old would say in England.
Oh, it's me snowman, governor. Ah, it's me snow gent.
And then being like, oh, sweetie, don't worry.
I'm taking the capture card from the CCTV system and immediately contacting someone with this footage
in an effort to have them fired from their job.
Imagine finding out you got someone fired because you complained about a fucking snowman.
Well, the good news is, technically they weren't fired because they were a contractor.
They were just kind of just let go from that job.
No protection whatsoever. So that's really cool.
That's what we all love to see is the wonderful world of casualized employment where you can simply say, hey, um, no more shifts for you.
You're still employed, but you just don't work anymore.
Pretty good. That's very cool. Cool as ice.
Speaking of someone else who's very cool.
Uh, one of the coolest people in the world, which is why we talk about them so much.
It's beloved friend of the show.
Shane Warny Warn.
In his house, maybe he has a projector.
Let's go to Shane's...
Where in the wide world of warning is Shane Warn?
Well, he's probably at his house.
I guess. I don't know if he goes out a lot.
Is he still in, is he still in the UK or is he back in Australia? I have no idea. I think
that's why we have the segment where in the wide world is Shane Warren. Well, he's always,
he's always doing the like the cricket commentary, so he's probably here. Which is, I don't know where in the wide world of warn is Shane warn. the the wa. thininin shshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshh. I. I. I. I. I. I. I don't know where in the wide world of warn is Shane Warren. No way of finding out.
However, he was asked upon the website Twitter to name his top five movies.
And he's, he is such a lover of cinema.
Such a lover of the film, a real cinefile that he said, don't think I can do top five.
Let's do top ten. Ha ha ha. So, you know, couldn't, couldn't keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep it it the the the to keep keep keep keep keep keep keep keep it to keep it. to keep it. to keep it. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the website.

Let's do top 10.
Ha ha ha.
So you know, couldn't keep it down a five, basically.
And now to give us the top 10 movies of masterful Australian spinbola,
Shane Warnie Warn.
Here we go. These are not ordered.
I think they're ordered. They're not, that we know of. He's not indicated in order. And we th. And we th. th. th. th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th.

He's not indicated an order and we wouldn't even dream of inferring one.
No, well that's the thing, unless he has specified it, you would hate to put that on him.
Yes. The first one is, Shawshank Redemption.
The first one is Shawshank Redemption. that's a great movie. The first one is a great flick.

Credit to Frank Darremont, you know?
Or they're just big Clancy Brown heads.
Who isn't?
I love Clancy Brown.
Who sees Clancy Brown?
thu' that?
thu. Is this? I'm out. I'm fucking right enough. I'm walking out of the cinema during Hail
Caesar when I see Clancy Brown instead of going, oh my god.
So good, he's in, he's in Fallout 1 as a bunch of the characters. Is he now? Yeah.
So is Jim Cummings. Oh, I love Jim Cummings. Well, he's a wife beater, so. I hate Jim Cummings. But he does the voice of
the master at the end which is like the pile of flesh and computers. Never beat
that. Check out Fallout 1. Huh. And of course in Russell McCahue's classic thethe Highlander, as the Kurgon.
Oh, we fucking know he's the Kurgin.
With his cool sword that he assembles out of several pieces of sword.
Yeah. Like it's a sniper rifle. Yeah. That's cool as shit.
Second one here is Top Gunn.
I'm, I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I would actually really like
to see the Top Gun sequel. What is that, Top Gun, too? You can. Like, we're not going to stop
you. Like, do you think it's, you're surprised telling us I'm probably got to watch a movie
that looks like shit. God damn, there are some good voice actors in fallout. Richard Dean Anderson. Kiefied, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there,, Richard Dean Anderson, Keith Eveard, Tony J.
Tress McNeil, Ron Perlman, Pamela Adlin, Tony Shal Hoop.
Um, fucking hell.
Frank Welker, David Warner. My goodness.
What a game. Check out Fallout one.
Also if you, uh, re-watch the English dubs of all the Miyazaki movies, Tress McNeil is in most
of them.
Yeah, and so she's in most animated English speaking movies.
She's got one of those voices where you just like, damn, that's Trace McNeil.
She's so good in our Futurama. She's amazing. All the meanest characters, Chess Mi. Her is the Grand Midwife. I'm not going to get very specific specific in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in in the very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very in in in in the meanest characters, the Gress MacMail. Her is the Grand Midwife, the, uh, I'm not going to get very specific about Future Arm because
I will, but I love her.
Thank you, Tress McNeil, if you're listening.
Love your work.
Uh, RIP, Tress McNeil.
What?
What?
Don't say that?
I don't think so.
No, that can't true. Are you sure? Oh no, she's still alive. Oh, my fucking God, what the fuck's wrong with you?
Who am I thinking of?
The lady from the Simpsons.
You asshole.
Who am I thinking of?
It was the lady who did, uh...
Oh, some other broad, right?
Because women are all the same to you. Marshall Wallace, man. Women are just disembodied voices voices, the voices, the voices, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thued, thued, thu, thus, thus, thus, thus, thu, thus, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, actors are, yes. Most of my relationship with voice actresses is there being
disembodied voice. I hold a computer printout of Tress McNeil in front of me while I'm listening
to her talk in something and I look at it to remind me that she is a human woman and I love her very much.
I spend hours and hours deep faking footage of Tress McNeil saying the lines that she's saying in animated
movies so I can watch her saying them instead. That's how much I respect her.
Silence of the Lambs is the next one. Kind of a surprise. I can't imagine him watching
Silence of the Lambs twice. Yeah. Yeah, that is definitely not the movie you remember
that you watched when you're like 12. Such a good movie.
So good, but it's also, yeah, no, I'm with you.
Next is a few good men.
Rob, I'm a classic.
Absolutely not.
He's lying about half this list.
Yeah.
Warn he's not like sitting down and watching a few good men and me like, this is the good shit.
It really makes me think about justice, just the the the the the the the m justice the m justice the m justice the the m justice the the m justice the the m justice the the good shit. Really makes me think about justice, he's saying, an honor.
Once again, I can't help but feel like at least some of this list is cribbed from the
I. 100% this is somehow, either we're experiencing some sort of statistical miracle and his top 10 movies
are also like the geometric mean of IMDB.
I mean, that would not be hugely surprising.
Yeah or he's...
The main issue is that with the IMDb top 10 is that he does not have any Lord of the
Rings or Matrix movies.
No, that's true.
And they pat out a lot of...
And Christopher Nolan movies also...
Not a single Marvel movie.
Not a Nolan head.
Next is another the usual suspects.
I don't believe he's watching the usual suspects.
I think he knows what the twist is and he likes that idea.
Well in the same way that I imagine him occasionally watching the clip of the you can't handle
the truth speech from a few good men and thinking I love the movie. That is exactly exactly. That is the the the the the the the the the that is exactly. That is exactly. That is exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly exactly. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the usual. Um. Um. Um. Um, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, th. thi, thi, thi, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the the the you can't handle the truth speech from a few good men and thinking I love the movie a few good man.
That's right. That is exactly what has happened. Yep. Gladiator he probably does like that one. Rusty getting out there and
just getting amongst it with a sword, you know. But he thinks Russell Crow was playing himself and that's all true.
Good on you, Rusty. You're really showing what Australia could do on the world stage.
You show those Italians what-to-what.
I do enjoy Waking Phoenix in that movie.
Oh, he's good and just about everything.
Yeah, but he's a real slimy little bitch in that movie, you know?
Yeah, but it's not real.
He's acting, he's pretending to be that character.
All right, so we got a few, we got a few out of left field at the end here.
He's digging deep for some indie gold. We've got the movie Rush, which is not a biopic of Jeffrey Rush.
It is in fact a 2013 movie about a rivalry between Formula One races starring Chris Hemsworth.
And Daniel Bruell, who's the guy from the German guy from Inglorious Bastids, who plays the famous German sniper.
Yeah. Nobody has ever heard of this movie or watched it.
Directed by Ron Howard.
Bloody runout. Just likes pumping him out doesn't he? Yeah, I have not of this movie or watched it. Directed by Ron Howard. Bloody Ron Howard.
Just likes pumping him out, doesn't he?
Yeah, I have not seen this.
88% on Rotten Tomatoes, 8.1% on IMDB,
74% on Metacritic.
That's a shockingly well-rounded high score there.
Kind of concerned about this.
Maybe I'm gonna have to watch the movie
Rush and then let Shane Warren know what I think about it. Then we're back to the IMDB
Top 10 with Goodfellas. Absolutely wonderful classic movie. I've been revisiting a lot of
the score saysies lately. That really is the masterpiece, Goodfellas. I'm just imagining
Shane Warren sitting and watching Silence. No, what's it?
Is that it?
It's called Silence.
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, the Adam Draver one.
No, that's sort of, yeah.
Also having, having watched the Sopranos for the first time recently, you will notice that
every character that is in it was in Goodfellas. I think there are 23 actors who were in Goodfellas
who went on to be in the Suprellars.
Just as an estimate or?
No, no, that's the number.
Okay.
Like, like I read a little list recently,
because I was looking someone up and going, is that?
And then it was like, 23 actors who were in Goodfellas good fellas who went on to be interesting. That's a that's a listical I could I could read. Then we got Ford versus Ferrari towards the end here. Apparently
quite good from what I've heard. Not gonna watch it. But again I like to imagine
Shane Warren watching just the scenes where the cars are going fast and being like
oh it's awesome and that's kind of the main thing. And finally, spelled incorrectly, I assume as a
sign of disrespect to Italians is Divencci Code. Divinci Code. Divinci Code.
Divinci Code. He loves to dive in and watch it. A another Ron Howard turd. Yeah he's a real real Ron Howard head. That's got nothing to do with the movie, the app.. Uh the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Uh things. Uh things. Uh th. And th. And th. And th. And thi thi thi thi thi thi things. And things. And things. And uh. And uh. And uh. And uh. And uh. And uh uh. And uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh. And uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh. And. And. And. And uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh. And. And. And thing. And thing. And th. And th. And, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, thi. And, thi. And, thito dive in and watch it. Another Ron Howard turd. Yeah, he's a real Ron Howard head.
That's got nothing to do with the movie, the app you've got for when Ron Howard takes
shit just went off, right?
What a list.
Oh, so thank you for sharing that with us.
Shane Warn. Hey, if you've never heard of any of those movies, like... I just love that the the the their their their their their they they they they they they they they they they're they're with the exception of Rush they're all the most heard of movies in the world and I respect that a lot
I can really imagine that he just sat down and tried to think of 10 movies.
His favorite movies are movies he can think of. Yep. Looking over at his shelf of standard definition DVDs.
He has to get them special.
I need you to do a downscaled version of a 2019 movie for me.
You got that in X-Vid?
I want, I would like the DivX watermark and the bottom right, please, if you can put that
on there.
It doesn't feel like home unless the DivX watermark.
I need just be inexplicably cropped to 4-3 and I also want to see someone stand up to go
and get more popcorn halfway through the film.
Oh, fuck.
Remember those.
But it's a telesink though, so the audio is good so don't even worry about it. Yeah good audio. Got this from a street market in Bangkok. When people used to have those ones just like in the
paper slip you know. Dad used to like go on trips for work and just come back with a bunch of
clearly bootleg dvds it was fucking awesome. Oh sorry no it clearly bootlegged VCDs.
V CDs awesome. I remember I remember like somebody once being like hey I got a copy I th I th I th I th a th a th a th a th a th a th a th a th a th a th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. I got a th.

hey, I got a copy of the Phantom Menace and we can watch it. And it's only just like out of movies,
you know, being like wow. And they put it on. And you can see like one third of the screen.
You see like the top left corner of the screen. And
then the Star Wars fanfare begins and so does all of the hooting and
applause of the audience. It's lucky there. Flash photography going off and
people standing up talking and yelling all the way through it. I love live cinema.
I was like I will not watch you, I will not be watching this handy cam. My dad. My dad. My dad. My the the the fan. My the the the the fan. My the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the star. the star. Then the the the star.

And the star. the star. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the star. the star. the the star. the the star. the the star. the star. the star. the the star. the star. the star. the star. the the the the way through it. I love live cinema. I was like I will not be watching
this handy cam. We had my dad had two two movies on VCD. They came on three CDs each and they were
dirty dancing and young guns with Lou Diamond Phillips, Emilio Estevez, Terrence Stamp.
Terence Stamp and so forth.
My dad's favorite movie in the world is allegedly men at work.
That's a fun movie.
Brothers Emilio Estevez and Charlie Sheen.
Haven't seen it.
Maybe there'd be a good, a good bonding moment if we're still doing those.
Bonding? We're to check with Dad if we're still bonding.
Yep, or if you've gone through the bonding period and what you've got now is what you're
going to have the rest of your life.
That's right.
Possibly a little uptick near the end.
That's so grim.
It's so weird to think that Charlie Sheen's like, I guess he's quarter Mexican.
I, let's not, let's, I'm not here to say what race people are.
No, let's not get into that.
Guys, can I, can I lead us out with something a little hopeful?
No.
So while we're doing the show, what we're doing the show, I do a little search because I thought maybe this Billy Zane thing's got legs.
And um, fishes don't.
No, this, well, I mean, this is Billy's, it's not a fish, but it's just its head so it also
wouldn't have legs.
