They'll never know. They'll never suspect a thing. Yeah. Now it's great to be back in the studio together, because we haven't seen each other in a couple of weeks. We had banked up a couple episodes, and now here we all are. The big reunion.

Matt's literally fresh off a plane. Yeah. Straight from the airport. His suitcase is sitting over there. I'm gonna have a rifle through it What have you got soap filled with dinghies? Oh Yeah Yeah, I'll perfectly sealed That is one day

I don't know I've been in the plane like a like Packers of chips to do I bought a packet of popcorn on the plane and I think yeah I'd never I'd never noticed that happening before maybe I've. I brought a packet of popcorn on the plane. And yeah, I'd never noticed that happening before. Maybe I've just never put a packet of things on the phone. I know. You've lived so much. I've lived in a world without flight. And popcorn. I never happened on when me and the Wright brothers

used to fly. We actually started out as a trio. And. Oh, you're the third Wright brother. Yeah, I'm the third Wright brother. Yeah. We were started out as a trio. And you're the third right brother. Yeah, I'm the third right brother. Yeah, we started out as a comedy flight team and they ended up in a duo thinking that chemistry was better or whatever.

It's still a bit of a sore point, but yeah, they went in a different direction and broke some sort of record that we probably talked about in an episode of this podcast. Yeah. I could go into more details because I lived that life. But why would you need to?

Why would I? It's weird I didn't bring it up. I know you shouldn't have an episode, but. Yeah, how about that? Well, why would we let you talk about when I could have just watched a documentary? Yeah, exactly. Well, that was good fun, though. That was a good fun episode.

Well, it's great to be back. Jess is also fresh off of playing last night from New Zealand. That's right. Mm. Landed a long white cloud and boy, did I say some clouds? Wow, you just showed me a couple of photos when you were literally in the clouds. Yeah.

I've lived, man. Yeah, I haven't. No, it was, it was stupidly beautiful. So if anybody from New Zealand is listening, hey, congrats. So country clouds. We love those country. We love those clouts. Really beautiful. Now I've got like a sick new cover photo on Facebook. That's all you travel for, really. Oh, for sure.

It's to flash that shit in front of your acquaintances. So you look like you're doing well. No need to go to that 10 year high school room. They all know I'm killing it. Oh yeah, I've seen you cover further. Yeah, I'm so wanting to. 16 likes, doing well. Oh, bloody dumb. Anyway, so yeah, we're here. We're back. We're ready for it. We're back and we're ready, gearing up for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, which kicks off this week. And on Saturday afternoon, the beer cafe is a first of four live podcasts at 3pm Which we are so stoked to do often some of our most fun live shows we've ever done I reckon I love 3pm as well It's a great time you've had lunch. Yeah, exactly. It's not too early, but also. It's not too late. Yeah They do good food at the beer garden as well. Beer cafe. Yeah, but they do havebe-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be-be- I'm excited about it. Yeah, so if you want to get him, get him. Get him. Just get him.

What are you sitting around? Get him. Just do it. Do go on. Do go on. On. On. On.

On. Not something or other. Just go on. Go on. Yeah, great. Just click the links. There are also tickets available for the following three shows, but you can also get a season pass.

That's right. We only pay for three, but you can come to awful. Yeah, so that would make most sense to do that now before the first show. Really? Next week before the second show, you can still see three shows for the process three, but you're really getting sort of reduced returns from you.

And the weeks after that, it's really an act of charity, which we still appreciate. I mean, it all kind of is, isn't it? We hopefully will give you a good time but I mean really. We know what's going on and we appreciate it. We do appreciate you sympathy. We love it, we live off it. It fuels us.

Thanks for selling out our shows in sympathy so we appreciate it. Oh bless them. And Matt. Oh yeah. 22 shows you got coming up. Do too. Yes and they start tomorrow night if you're listening to this on Wednesday. So I guess they it opens on Thursday, whatever the date that is. Do we know what date is it? Anyway. 28th, not 28th. Yes and I'm doing it the four months at the Chinese Museum. It's seven o'clock,

six o'clock on Sunday. That's a great venue too. You've been there the last couple of years, haven't you? I really like it. It's great. So we take you to Asia, yeah, in the wake of match-up, and then we take you to Europe

on Saturday afternoon. That's right. We're a worldly city and a worldly show. So much so. A world... A world... A world... A world...

A world of culture. Yeah, there's a world of culture. You get a cup of coffee and go down one of those lane. Oh, we love a lane way. And if you do come to Melbourne, if you're looking for a good tour guide, there is a great tour that you can, I think we've probably mentioned it before, but it's run by Matthew Webb. And you can maybe just ask us for the details. Yeah. And we'll put a link in the description, I reckon. Right, perfect.

But still, if you want to ask us for the details, we'll just send you to that same link. Yeah, just looking the day. If you just want a bit of attention, just send. Ask us. Yeah, ask us on Twitter. No, no, no, no. No, you're asking us on the Facebook.

On the G-mail. On Facebook is the best answer. They go on bar at gmail.com. No one checks the Instagram messages. Don't bother there. I've worked out how to do that. Have you? Yeah.

That I've shown you so many times. Thank you so much. But you got there. All right, well done. I did notice you put up an Instagram story the other day. Do my first ever Instagram story and I'm addicted. Yeah. Have your story tell them?

I'm out and you since but I'm addicted. I love the story. I'm all about the story. I don't post much anymore, but boy do I love a story. You don't post much to you. You do post much. I post constantly. I'm posting right now.

Oh wow. I'm gonna put that up on our page. I'm gonna flash on. Yeah, that's mean. No, flash is great. We didn't know where to hide. I've let him, yeah. No. We've just nowhere to hide. I've gotten, yeah. No, I don't need to hide anything.

Yeah. I post so well, it automatically hides all of my thoughts. Can I take a bad photo of me? Yes. Anyway, we've rambled enough. And yes, we have. We should also mention that we are doing the CoSIM International podcast festival in June

with the Little Dumb Dumb Club coming up. Not that long now, so we're very excited. I mean, some people in Brisbane and Ad little dumb dumb club coming up. Not that long now, so we're very excited. You've been in. I'm man, some people in Brisbane and Adelaide who are coming. That is so cool, Milly. Do you go on, listen to the camera show,

which is really cool. So that should be fun. The beach, apparently it's paradise. Someone there was telling me that there are six kind of shops, but each of those shops, there are hundreds of. I haven't fully figured out what that means, but... Wow! Okay.

It's an interesting idea, and there's some Sydney themed restaurants. Why would that mean? Why have Sydney themed? Not Australia, just Sydney. Yeah, so I don't know what that... I definitely went to an Australian bar last time I was in Coastamilly. You've been a coast before? Yeah!

Did people call it coast? They do know. Wow. You should be our tour guide. Okay. You know it. I will be your tour guide, yes. Tour guide to the stars.

For $100. Okay. Seems like a good deal. That's a hard no for me. Interesting. Interesting. Can I just show you around, but also take $100 out of your wallet?

Okay, that is a good compromise. So people can find out details for that as well on digawampod.com and for my show at Melbourne, and also the Sydney Comedy Festival next month, you can find details for that at mathsjewatcomedy.com slash gigs. How good is that? Yeah, now we should start the show. Oh, righty.

Have we been explaining the show much in recent episodes? I can't remember. If we haven't, this is what happens. The three of us get together. One of this has been chosen by a higher force, which is rotation. And we, then whoever's chosen by the rotation force, the rotary gods, they research a topic usually

being selected by a listener or suggested at least and then they tell the other two of us about that topic in pretty good detail and then we all sort of talk for a bit and that is podcast magic. Do go on style and tell the end of year to go on with the rest of your life. Yeah, that's right. To look forward to that. Yeah, that bit will be fun. Jess has been selected by the gods today and she's about to get us under the topic with a question. Jess, over to you.

My question is, which I just wrote, has that arrived so great. Which American actress has an emotional support dog named Gary? That's a great question. Whoopi Goldberg! Incorrect. Emotional support dog. Okay, who needs support, everyone? That's my answer.

Your answer is everyone? Yeah, who's the everybody actress? I'd say it is Goldie Horn. No. Did make her film debut in a film with Goldie Horn? I reckon it's the one who's always nominated for stuff. She was in that singing one about the beaches. You have Merrill Street?

Yes. It is not Merrill Street. That Midler would also have been an answer to that. I put a little bit of a trick in there and I said has when perhaps it should have been had. Oh. Oh, one of the, one of the hip burns. No, a bit more recent.

Okay. This is fun for me. So this person is no longer with us as of only a couple of years ago. Who have we lost? Frank Sinatra? Is it Frank? It's not Frank, it is a female. Okay.

Frank, Francine Sinatra? Okay, is it Francine Sinatra? Died on this within a couple of days of her mother? Oh, yes. Oh, Star Wars. Yes. Caroline, Carrie, Carrie Bigmore. Carrie. Grant, Carrie, Carrie Bigmore, Carrie. Grant.

Grant, Carrie. Oh no, Fisher Slayer. Fisher. It's Carrie Fisher. I mean, general layer or whatever. I'm a soy boy after all. Carrie Fisher. Carrie Fisher.

Yes, that is correct. Right, and her mum was also an actor. Correct. And I'll talk quite a bit about both of them because that's kind of the point. Right. So you've gone for a mother daughter, Hollywood comedy. Yeah.

Well, mostly this is about Carrie Fisher. I do have a little bit about Debbie Reynolds, her mother as well. Who played Toto in Winnie the Pooh? You're still flying in those clouds up in the fly-downs. You're feeling a little loose. You bit jet legs. From Brisbane.

We flew back from, it's a three hour flight from Christchurch. There's a two hour time difference. And this morning, oh, I'm jet lagged. I wake up at 6.30, I wanted to leave for work and I was like, I think you should go back to bed. It's 6.30. Is that because on the holiday you wake up every day at 6.30 and thought, I want to go to work. No!

Are you gonna hate this? It's about a bunch of jet lag. I don't want to be on holiday. That's just a good work ethic. Yeah, well, well, or hate me. Anyway, I need to get out of here. This sucks. I got to leave out of here. This sucks. I've got to leave for a between nine and five.

Ha, ha, ha, ha. Uh, anyway, I think that's a bit jet lag. It's also very late at night. So I'm just going to carry on. So, well, well, well, thank you. Carrie Frances Fisher was the daughter of actress Debbie Reynolds, star of the 1952 film, Singing in the Rain. That's right.

That's how she played Toto. I knew it was a classic musical. I was singing Wizard of Oz, but that is someone else. Another famous mom or daughter. The right play Toto. Not Toto, the Dorothy. Dorothy. Yeah.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'll try and keep it down. Liza Manelli's mom. Yes. Yes. Mm. Ha ha ha. Carrie's father was a singer and actor Eddie Fisher. And Carrie was born in October 1956 in Burbank, California.

And a couple of years later her brother Todd was born. Todd. Todd Fischer. Todd Fischer. Is that this Todd short of anything? That's it. Toddwood. Todd Fischer. Todd Fischer. Is that this Todd short for anything? That's it. Toddwood. Todd Lee. Todd Lee. Todd England. I think it's over Todd Todd. Toddie. Todd Toddie. Toddle. Toddle along. Yes. You're right. Thanks for all of them. This time could be the second part of the name.

You could be like John Todd or something. Hello, John Todd. That sucks. I love it. John Todd. Time for a quick tea, John Todd. Ginger. Todd was actually named after his father's best friend.

I called Mike Todd, Todd being the surname. Oh, I should've said Mike, Mike's great. Yeah. Who was also a famous American theater and film producer. Mike Todd is known as the third of Elizabeth Taylor's seven husbands, and is the only one whom she did not divorce because he was killed in a plane accident in 1959. Oh, I bid a respect for Todd, man.

Yeah. Sorry about that. Three of seven. What is this, the friend or the son? This is the friend, Mike Todd. It was shortly after the accident and the death of Mike Todd that Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher got divorced. And it was revealed that Eddie had been having an affair with his best friend's wife, Elizabeth Taylor, who was also good friends with Debbie. There's

like two couples. Right. And Todd had just died. He just died. And then it came out that Eddie's having an affair with Elizabeth Taylor. So that splits up Eddie and Debbie. Oh, Eddie and Debbie, Debbie, Eddie. So basically, the only one she didn't divorce, but pretty soon they were probably gonna get divorced if you hadn't have died first. Yeah, he just happened to die, but she could divorce him. That's what.

So Liza and Ellie's mom's Judy Garland. Yes. And she also had five husbands. Yeah. That's just how they used to do it back then. That was a different time. I'm bringing it back. Yeah, how many up to again?

Eight. Yeah, that's a good one. Wow, I think you've got it. But having divorced one of them, they've all died. In mysterious plain accents. Oh, oh. Somehow on the same plain together. All poisoned, anyway.

That's plain food. That's never happened. I've not killed a single husband. Right, they're all so alive then. Where are you keeping them? Basement. Anywho. So, the Eddie Fisher and Elizabeth Taylor affair was a huge public scandal.

It was massive. Shock waves. And it led to the cancellation of his television show called Eddie Fish's television show. You're kidding. You serious? Yeah. I reckon there's a few reasons that was canceled. Do I get it?

Because it was Eddie Fish's television show. Like you can't even television extravaganza. Like just like give it a little something. You know, spice it up a bit. Put a bit of cage on that chicken, you know what I mean? Ah, like it, he doesn't need to gloat about it. Well, the show does the talking for itself. Got himself canceled.

Heavy fishes TV aquarium. Okay. Alright, I'm listening. No, no television aquarium, sorry. The whole word television. Yeah, yeah. They haven't really for brevity here. Television show. Television show.

Television show. Eddie Fish's television show. So there are fair, yeah, cause he's, he's shown to be canceled. So then Eddie Fisher marries Elizabeth Taylor and they're married for four or five years before they also divorce as well. So he's gone and married the mistress

who was Elizabeth Taylor. That's not much of a factor in the world. Yeah, it's not. But also was Elizabeth Taylor. It's not a famous actor in the world. Yeah, it's not a good one. But also, Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds were good friends. So that's. Don't talk to the mates. Come on.

It's an early tangent, but it is fascinating. In 2011, I'll get obviously, I'll get back to carrying a sick, but I'll skip to it all. She did something good, Star Wars, whatever. Anyway, 2011... That's just more on that kind of... that scandal. Debbie Reynolds was on the Oprah Winfrey show just weeks

before Elizabeth Taylor passed away. And she explained that she and Elizabeth Taylor happened to be traveling at the same time on the ocean line at Queen Elizabeth sometime in the late 1960s or early 70s and they reconciled. Debbie Reynolds sent a note to Elizabeth Taylor's room and Taylor sent a note in reply asking to have dinner with her and they ended their feud and became friends again and as Debbie Reynolds described she said we had a wonderful evening with a lot of laughs. And's right. And in 1972, she noted the bright side of the divorce and her remarriage. She said, now in retrospect, though it was not my will, I think it probably was the best

thing that ever happened to me. You did give me two great children, and for that I'll ever be grateful. Our door is always open to him. I believe in peaceful coexistence and being friends with the father of your children. So not the classic kind of Hollywood of like parents are split up and it's really messy. I think they still had a good relationship with both parents. Even though they divorced, Macari was about two years old. Right, but I never lost her mother was, was with Taylor. No, her mother is. Sorry, stepmother, I mean. Yeah. That's amazing.

Isn't that wild? Did not know that. It's so crazy. And then her father, even after Elizabeth Taylor, he, I think, then remarried again. And he had, oh, yes, he married later to a woman called Connie Stevens and had two daughters with her as well. So Carrie has her brother Todd and then half sisters from her dad's side. And then I think step sisters are half siblings from her mum's remarriage as well. So it's kind of this big blended mixed family.

Amazing. So in 1960 her mother married Harry Carl, who's an owner of a chain of shoe stores, and Debbie Reynolds and Harry Carl divorced in 1973 when Carrie Fisher was 17 years old. I mean, I don't want to speak barely of Henry Carl, but your dad's just married Elizabeth Taylor. Yeah. And the amount of marriage to shoe salesmen. Yeah, but like a chain of them. Okay.

Okay. But still, you know, it's like a lizard at times. It's hard to compare. It's hard to compare a lizard at Taylor. I don't know, and I think that's something quite nice about that, you know? What? Free shoes. Fuck yeah, love shoes.

That's true. What kind of shoes Rick and Harry Carl is selling though? Probably a great range. Oh good, I want range. Let the school shoes. Yeah, I'm picturing leather school shoes all the way up to no name tennis shoes. Does he have any kind of like casual

street wear shoes? Yeah yeah but they're like they're like the off brand off brand strap-on songs what do you call those? Sandals. Strapp on thongs. That would sound quite different to anyone outside of Australia doesn't call them thongs. Well, do they call them footflops everywhere else? Footflops? No. Oh, they're jandals. Jandals in New Zealand. I love culture so much. So good.

Yes, a strap on thongs. That's amazing. And we're right now. And you look great. I got distracted by the Julie Garn page for a second. She was married at one point to a guy called Vincente Manelli, who was Liza Manelli's dad. Yeah. Does it feels like it's all very interconnected. Holly would, big time, Holly would back then. Yeah, I would say so.

So did you say so as an expert in the field? Well, I think it was probably a smaller group than it would be now, arguably. You know, so yeah, probably is a lot more connected. But still, Debbie Reynolds, big star, married a shoe salesman, because she's down to earth. And I like that about Deb. Yeah, comfy feet. Love that.

That's what I always said. Come, be wife, come, be life. So as a kid, Carrie was a bit of a bookworm. She spent a lot of her time reading classic literature and writing poetry. And as a teen, she went to Beverly Hills High School. In 1971, her mother was starring in the Broadway production of Irene, and Carrie also performed in the production as a singer and debut time.

She was kind of in the chorus. So she's 17, and she's, no, sorry, I beg your pardon, she's 15, and she's making her debut on Broadway. And her work on Broadway. And her work on Broadway interrupted her schooling, so she dropped out of school at the age of 15. And a couple of years later, in 1973, she enrolled at London Central School of Speech and Drama. She attended classes there for about 18 months.

And she was planning on studying at Sarah Lawrence College, which I think she did for a time, but she left without graduating. And in 1975, when she was 18, she made her film debut as the, this is the description of the character, precociously seductive character, Lorna Capps sexy. Launa Carts Sexy Carts Launa Carts K-A-R-P-S Oh wow, that was awesome. Also my grandma's name was Launa, so I think I like Launa as a name I think that could have gone either way, but Carts really have at home. Yeah, I am creaming in my strap-on thumb right now

That mean would you got a foot, and some sort of a waping wound on your foot. Yeah, and it's a cream cone. It reacts to sexy names. Lorna Capp. Oh, stop. Oh, I'm standing in a puddle right now. Oh.

Well, Lorna Capp was a character in shampoo alongside Warren Beatty and Goldie Hawn. I mentioned before. He did. Goldie Hawn. So her film debut is with Warren Beatty and Goldie Hawn. Pretty good. She's 18. Only a couple years later, she got the role in a film that Carrie wasn't sure people

would like, but she thought the script was fantastic She was a bit unsure if it was any it was gonna be any success. I reckon that was suck that film was Star Wars. Oh hang on Dave you idiot you knew didn't you Oh, no, Dave we've been we've played cheeky. I guess I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess.

I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess.

I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess.

I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess. I guess.概. Hmm. Lovever girl. That is a great. Clever girl. No, it's not Darth Vader.

Oh, Clever girl. Clever girl. Um, here's what I think it would say. Like if Darth Vader was swallowing his last mouthful of a subway sub while seeing a raptor in a dinosaur park. I have a thousand noises. Cool, cool, cool. Thank you. It's very good.

What does he get in the subway sub? Oh, he gets the works. Is that one of that? Is that an option? What a beach, please. Meatballs and like chicken to nitsore, or the veggie patty. Four types of cookie.

Yeah. All in there. He wants it all. Yeah, it's all in there. He wants it all. That's gross. He wants it now. You would get your mouth real in that. Well he has to, yes, it's two buns. So one's open on the bottom, the one's open like a bun.

It's like a sandwich sandwich. And then he gets a wrap around that as well. And then does he say, step aside, I'll do this myself. And he uses the force to make it, and all the ingredients are like floating around. And he like said, you cannot do that. He starts choking out the woman. And then he goes, it's the dollar extra for beetroot.

And he takes the beetroot out. But don't worry, he's got a bit of beetroot juice in there for free. Yeah, it's not moved. God, he's good. Yeah, he's good. That's why he's the best. He's brutal.

That's the die side. So when I see the question, I like stars. And that is great. The film opened on Wednesday, May 25, 1977, in 32 theaters, expanding to 43 screens on the Friday. So within a couple of days, it had expanded. They put on more screens on the Friday. So within a couple of days it had expanded, they put on more because of the demand. And it earned $2,556,418 in its first six days. That's insane.

That's insane. Which is about 10.6 million today in six days. That's pretty good for an unknown film at the time. Yeah. It replaced George as the highest earning film in North America just six months into release, eventually earning over 222 million during its initial theatrical run,

which is about 910 million today. That's pretty insane. Yeah. Highest earning film. Do it's current, because there are billion dollar films now, right? And there's only the modern sewers on that tape. Why would it? Yeah, yeah, no, yeah, they did now.

Yeah, I think the third highest racing film at the moment ever. It's like Avatar Titanic and then the Force Awakens, I think. Right. Or one of the new ones. Don't quote me. I told you I like it. I don't love it. Yeah, but how good is the music in Avatar? Tadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadadad robot suit. I have some sort of weird connection with their animal. I was thinking that too. I have to fly this thing now with my ponytail. My ponytail into its anus. Now we are one. No, that's just a bit of self-bud with hair and a sauce. What's the things I remember? Yeah, I don't remember a lot of Avatar now, I think. I remember there were trees. There were a lot of trees.

And it looked very pretty. Yeah, it looked fun. It was a fun! Trigger that had fun. I think it was fun. Tractang didn't look that fun. It looked fun in the first two thirds. Oh, I thought so.

Remember that scene on the front of the boat? Oh, I do remember what the violinists play as the boat goes down. What was that song, that was, He's a couple of reviews for the film. Vincent can be of the New York Times. Said it was the most elaborate, most expensive, most beautiful movie serial ever made. Wow. That's a high praise. And Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun Times called the film

an out-of-body experience. And a tiny side note here to say that Roger Ebert was the first film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize for criticism. Yeah. He's a big deal and they still, even though he's now gone, they still RogerEbert.com is like one of the... Got a Pulitzer Prize for criticism. Imagine being his kid. No, pleasing him. But that's pretty amazing. That's very cool. That is so cool. See, it's he called it an out of body experience.

And Star Wars won six competitive Academy Awards at the 50th Academy Awards. What does that mean? I'll make some competitive. I don't know. It's not honorary. Right. Like lifetime achievement award.

OK. For this film that came out last year. Yeah, that'd be cool. So one best art direction, best costume design, best film editing, best original score as we all remember. And they sadly the Darth Vader, you know, the deathmarch one. It went like this. BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM

I loved that. That was so fun. Manacing. You never really thought about this, but in the world of Star Wars, can they hear that music? Because it would be so funny if everywhere he goes, he demands that the Death Star play that song. Yeah. One day someone accidentally plays Tom Jones. He's trying to look at the missing.

He's just looking around at his helmet going, what the fuck? It's not unusual. That person would be killed. And then he gets to the bit, oh, one, a die. That person would be killed. I mean, it gets to the bed. I want to die. And he says that's chasing you. I will help you with that. It's best visual score, obviously, and deservingly so. Best sound and best visual effects as well. Also one for. And I won the Golden Globe for Best Score, received six British Academy Film Awards, a Film Award nominations and a one

for two. So it was nominated for Best Film, Best Eddling, Best Costume Design, Best Production, and Art Design and at one Best Sound and Best Score. So it is just, it is cleaning up awards wise. John Williams is a soundtrack album, one, the Grammy Award for Best Album of Original Score for a Motion picture or television program. It's a wordy title, but he won. So yeah, it is a...

What song did he win it for? The whole album. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Sorry, that just had really got me. Wow. What song? The got me. Wow.

What song, the whole album? Wow. I don't know what to say to that. Oh, wow. All 15 songs. Oh, there's the album tracks, one of them which went, da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da. He later, he was like, no one's gonna remember that.

I put that in one of my early Star Wars films. Yeah. So that was her second feature film. It was a smash hit and it launched not only her career, but also the careers of her co-stars Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill. Also whilst she was filming Star Wars, she met and began dating musician Paul Simon. I'm not unusual. Yeah, known famous leafy song. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Kerry had a couple of television roles, including playing the love interest in Ringo Stars 1978, TV special, Ringo. Ringo was loosely based on the Prince and the Porpo

and starred Ringo Star playing both a fictionalized version of himself and his fictional half-brother, Onki Rats, which is Ringo Star, spelled backwards. That's clever. This sounds like it'll be great. Yeah, that sounds great. That sounds clever and fun and great. Yeah. Ringo, what a guy.

Everyone knows, hottest beetle. Mm-hmm. Second best drummer in the Beatles, am I right? Thank for that bullshit on me, man. It was the best drummer in the Beatles, because it was the only drummer in the Beatles. Even if other ones were better at the drums, he was the only one who was playing the drums at the live shows.

I mean, some of them, I think Paul did play on, anyway, I just don't want to hear bad words at about Rink. I know he's a listener, so he's doing good. That's from all of us. It's from the stars. I like it. Yeah. Don't love it.

Like Star Wars, I like him. Don't love him. Yeah. You don't want to get the big ring go now. Oh, they freak out if you get it wrong. Yeah. They get annoyed. They do.

They are passionate and don't blame them. The ring heads. So that was in 1978. That November, she played Princess Leia in the TV production Star Wars Holiday Special, which included her seeing as well. I'd have not seen that. No. I don't know what I'm saying, either.

Apparently, it's one of the worst things ever, though. So this did an actual little special? Yeah. I didn't kill the franchise. No, they've tried a barrier to a bit since. And I believe Chewbacca goes back to his home planet and spends their equivalent of Christmas together. It's a low budget.

We never had a family, you know? Yeah, family's important, even a walkies, or especially to walkies. Well, then of course, in 1980, she played the role of mystery woman in the Blues Brothers. Oh, yeah. Ah, yeah.

That's cool. Yeah, she was, what a great student. She's so good in it. She's good in it, yeah. But they don't give a lot of context. She just does a lot of face work, you know? I love that. What a holding of weapons.

On the set of Blues Brothers, Carrie started dating one of the film stars, Dan Acroed, and he proposed to her on set. Oh, in front of everyone else. Don't like that. Yeah, I hate that. No public proposals. Please, no. Don't put us through it. No. I would get someone comfortable. Unless both want it to happen, but I feel like normally that's just used as a way to pressure. I'm not sure which way this is gonna go. Let's do it safely on camera at a basketball game. Oh no. And if it goes wrong, at least I've got a viral video on my hands. What a roll of the dice. Unless you're both shameless. So Carrie said of her relationship

with Janet Quartz, she said, we had rings. We got blood tests the whole shot. Yeah, right. Hang on. What? What did I ring? Zant bod test. Same thing. But then I got back together with Paul Simon. They got back together. Three. Then I got back together. She said, oh, they said, they got back together. Then I got back together, she said. Oh, thank you. Then I got back together with Paul Simon. So they're just collecting numbers as they went. That'd be amazing. You win. You win. Who's in? There's going to be the best marriage. I love it. And who wants to get married? Who wants to get married to us? The biggest public proposal of all time. Everybody. So it sounds like this is still that Hollywood thing that we're talking about before where everyone's marrying like everyone's famous getting together

Yeah, and this is this next sentence is fun. Cari was married to Paul Simon from August 1983 to July 1984 So just under a year at which time they divorced but continued to date for about eight more years Huh, right Just got divorced. So being married put too much pressure. Yeah, let's go back to the start. Let's just take our rings off, do a bit of paperwork and then continue our lives as normal. So I don't really, obviously, I don't have a lot of information as to the ins and outs of their relationship, but that's what happened. Anyway, over the next few years she acted in quite a lot of films,

and also, she appeared on Broadway in the censored scenes from King Kong in 1980. The same year, there you go, as a primate, it's tip-fleeve, honey. Ooh, that sounds great. Well, Trevor, back in time and see that on Broadway. I should say also, people who think we've skipped over the Star Wars, we did a full episode on Star Wars

last year. Yes, as told by Star Wars expert. Mr. Sundan Mimic. Yeah, I definitely didn't want to go into that everything to do with Star Wars because I am not an expert and we've already done it. And this report is about the life of Carrey Fisher. Yes, she's so much more than just... She's more than just that. General Otaga or whatever. My next sentence though is Star Wars related

So what help me out general otago. Is that right? No, oh fuck. Oh You really made me think that's pretty long. Oh, is it close to something princess like Is that what you think you have? Yes, sorry, that's But who are you thinking of I'm thinking what is she caught in them in the in the in the The newer ones what she called in that funny this general take on you're right Shut you down again. I don't love it. I just like it. Why are General it's general something

General general or Ghana. Jesus was You were close. It was pretty close. But you weren't correct. Because that must be a surname, Princess Leia Organa.

Now is the time, mycomputercareer.edu. Hmm, curious. Well, the same year that she was on Broadway in the sense of the scenes of King Kong, she reprised her role as Princess Layer in the Empire Strikes Back. And she also starred as Sister Agnes in the Broadway production of Agnes of God in 1983. And that's a play that is notoriously demanding and challenging to perform. It's a story of a novice nun who gives birth and

insists that the child was the result of virgin conception. And it's just three characters, a lot of stage time, it's pretty grueling. One of the characters not Agnes, who she was playing with. One of the characters is on stage the entire time, like does not get a break. So it's really grueling, it's like, yeah, it's notoriously demanding, people kind of respect you for doing it. So she did that as a general lot of broad way. Also in 83, Carrie returned to the role of Princess Leone, return of the Jedi, and posed in the character's metal bikini on the cover of the summer of 1983 issue of Rolling Stone to promote the film. That cover kind of became quite famous as well. In 86, she

starred along with Barbara Hershey and Mia Farrow in Woody Allen's Hannah and her sisters. And that film also starred Michael Cain. I just put that in because Michael Cain was in the movie. What a guy. I mean, I love him. I want to read his biography. Autobiography. I would like to be read his autobiography by him. I imagine. Surely he's a...

Surely that's a... Do you reckon he's a Red-Ezone audio? I reckon. I love it when they do. Yeah. Oh. He has to check that. And I, I know, is Mark O'Kaim.

This is Mark. Story. When I was a boy. Yeah, it goes on. Except for, except, yeah, no spoilers please. Sounds, yeah, please. Yeah, it's just sound more like Michael came when he does it But I feel like I wasn't even it I wasn't even committing to that. It's um I Thought I'd read this before I just wanted to confirm it He's book is called blowing the bloody dolls off and other lessons in my life. Yes, it is. It's cold

I don't know if that's it. I say we'll do You are only supposed to blow the bloody dolls off What's that from the Italian job? Yeah, you know mark you wallberg The original the original is a very young mark you all back. He was in that piece That's cute. Detailing job, baby. I liked the second, like, the reprisal when they all had different colored mini-coopers.

Yeah. Thought that was very cool. I reckon also the only reason that film was probably made, right? Funded by mini-coopers. Possibly. Well, in the first one, there are also mini-coopers. That's right, but that's why I reckon that's why they made that particular film again.

Because I was really grateful. They're capable again. They're capable of the whole thing. Yeah, re-releasing mini-coupes. Wouldn't be surprised. That's a good one. So somewhere around this time, at the age of 29, Carrie was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Now, diagnosis came after a year-long battle with addiction that it turns out was kind of made worse

by her mental illness. So she said, I used to think I was a drug addict, pure and simple, just someone who could not stop taking drugs willfully. And I was that, but it turns out I am severely manic depressive. So she said her drug use was a form of self-medication. She kind of used pain medication, like percordin, to dial down the manic aspect of her bipolar disorder.

And in another interview, she revealed that she used cosine cocaine during the filming of the Empire Strikes Back. So the second the second see is soft. Cousin. Oh, yeah, I'll try. Mm, you want to try some Cousin? We're going to do a few lines of coast. That sounds nice. Yeah, I'll try. Mm-hmm. You want to try some Cossain? We're gonna do a few lines of coast. That sounds nice. Yeah

Chirical And his Perkiden that related to you at all. Yes. Yeah Grandpa Perkiden. Giuseppe Perkiden Before he changes name to to Perkins invented it. Yeah, Papa Giuseppe, we miss him. But we thank him for inventing Perkins. So yeah, she said she was using cocaine during the film of Empire Strikes Back.

And she said, slowly I realized I was doing a bit more drugs than other people and losing my choice in the matter. So she had a bit of an issue with addiction there as well. In 1987, she moved away briefly from her acting job and into a new role as an author. She wrote and published her first novel called Postcards from the Edge. I love that. The Edge of What? You'll have to read to. Okay. It's a semi-autobiographical in the sense that she fictionalized and satirized real life events such as a drug addiction of the late 70s and her relationship with her mother.

They're, Carrie Fisher and her mom, you'd sort of think Hollywood mother daughter, they probably hate each other. They are best friends. They live next door to each other. They're very, very close. I love it. So cute. The book was a huge success. She received the Los Angeles Pen Award for best first novel. It's a great penmanship. It's great. Really neatly. Yeah. In the lines. Wow. People are like legible. You know, we have computers. You can you can type it out. Yeah. There wasn't a lot of competition. I'm two thirds of the way through now. Yeah. I'm just going to finish it.

Yeah. Yeah. And there's obviously only going to do a short print run because I don't have enough time to. We're doing 12 of these books. Carrie, we can like scan and make copies and no, no, no, no. It's important to me. So I can't use that. Excuse me. I'm just going gonna put back on my writing music. And it starred Merrill Streep,

Shirley McClain, and Dennis Quaid, bit of an all-star cast. And when she was asked why she didn't take on the role of her story as protagonist named Suzanne in the film version, Carrie Fisher remarked, I've already playedie. Which I like. Had the film go. Yeah, quite well. I didn't know about any of this. No. I knew her book was called that, but I didn't know that...

So did Merrill Street play her? It was the reasoning, Merrill Street will be better at playing me than I am at being me. Well, I think it's like... It is semi-autobiographical. Obviously, she's like, Yeah, and I'm not Suzanne. Everything else is the same. That's all she's ashamed.

But she kind of, I think she hammed it up a bit or she just drew from her experiences more so than... Drew with a pen. Drew with a pen, it was a picture book, and she's quite the artist. So yeah, so then over the next few years she had roles in films like When Harry Met Sally, The Burbs, Drop Dead Fred, Austin Powers, International Man of Mystery. I can't remember any of those. I've seen all those films. When Harry Met Sally, she plays

like the... Maybe I haven't seen them. I've seen the out of it because it used to be played on Channel Tan or something. You know those moves that it's played too much and I always felt so depressing. It's a classic. Yeah, that's a word. Yeah, that woman, she orgasms in the shop while she's asking for cornflakes or something. Yeah, cornflakes. It's good stuff. Was that an ad that was parodied off it?

Maybe I've never even seen the actual scene. I'll have what she's having. Cornflakes winked at camera. Yeah, that sounds about right. Yeah, is yeah that it's not like a classic to me I think that's it you nailed it I don't remember in Austin powers though no oh I think she plays mini me yes she plays all the roles that fasted Awesome wow That's good writing She also wrote a couple more novels surrender the pink in 1990 and delusions of grandma

It's a horrific title surrender the pink oh god pink. Oh God. I was wrong with that. I was wrong with Serendor the pink. I do not agree. Where did your lines go? I do not agree. Serendor the pink. I'm sure. I mean, whatever you want it, I don't think you should be ordering people to surrender

their pink. I'm not ordering anything. I'm reading a book title in my report. Oh, that would be so. What is that? Yeah. I'm not even sure how Dave's interpreting it. But I mean, you also, not me, certainly not me. I looked at you when I said it. I mean, you were looking straight at Dave. I can't take like, what the hell is that? You have no problems with delusions

of grandma. That's fine, but surround the pink. Dave the pun Is that delusion to grandma a delusion of grand jute? Maybe how do you feel about the terrible pun? How do you feel about the pink? Oh, yeah What? No, no, no, I hate it. You try to be non-committal. Okay, so I like it. I don't love it I want to move away from surrender the pink move away from the pink in 1991 Carrying Paul Paul Simon finally split up for good so that whole time she's they're done so as she's still dating him They're not married, but they're they're dating any classic songs about her at all. Yes Which I read about and didn't write down Which I read about and didn't write down. Oh, yes, there's a couple of his songs that are about her.

Yeah, right. Like a bridge over the carries. Fischer. Yeah. She's still up bridges. She's up blowing under bridges. So, after they split up for good, she began a relationship with Brian Lord, who was a well-known talent agent with creative artist agency.

And their first and only child, Billy Lord, was born in 1992. Ah, that's a name. I love Billy. Billy's a girl too. I just Billy Lord. Billy Lord is great. Be hard to find. I don't even even Todd Lord would sound good.

Because that sounds like good Lord. Todd Lord. Todd Lord. Which is, good Lord is possibly my favorite phrase ever to come out of someone's mouth. My grandma used to say good Lord. Good Lord. Good Lord. When my parents told her that they were going to Russia for a holiday.

Good Lord. Why are you going there? Fantastic. When did they go to Russia? Your parents have traveled a lot haven't they? Yeah, I've been to quite a few places. See, good Lorda when they were going to Egypt as well. Good Lord! Because you know, what she is still in her 90s, so she views Russia as a very different place to what it is now.

Yeah, right. Yeah, right. Anyway, so they've had their first non-child, Billy Lord, born in 1992. And a couple of years after Billy was born, the relationship between Carrie and Brian ended when Brian left to be in a homosexual relationship. And he married Bruce Bosey, the co-owner of the palm of fine dining steakhouse in Manhattan in 2016 Bruce Buzzy is a great name.

They got married would Bruce keep Buzzy or do you become Bruce Lord? Bruce Lord is very good. You bit Buzzy what about Bruce Buzzy Lord? Oh yeah. Yeah. Whatever went the other way. What's Lord's first name? Brian, Brian Bosie.

Brian Bosie, yeah. Brian and Bruce Bosie, that's not a contest there. Brian and Bruce Bosie, Lord. Lord Brian and Bruce Bosie. No, no. Bruce, Lord Bosie. Bruce, Lord Bosie, yeah. Bruce and Brian, Lord Bosie.

Lord Bruce Bosie, no. Lord Bosie. And that's you. Lordbosy. Oh, I'll never see you again. Bruce Bosy. My Lord. Oh, I'm Lord Bruce and also my Lord Brian Bosy. I like the ball. My Lord. My Lord. This is what you often address the owner of an outback story. Yeah. Yeah. Oh Lord. Oh Lord. What are you doing?

That's their name. I love Malaud. Oh, it's fun. Oh, good, good Malaud. Good Malaud. Through the 90s, Carrie did a lot of uncredited script work. Just Carrie Bigmore? Yes.

Okay. Carrie Fisher. Oh. Did a lot of uncredited script work for a bunch of different movies, including writing a lot of Renee Russo's dialogue in Lethal Weapon 3. What? And the script for the wedding singer. What?

She wrote the script for the wedding singer. No, she just like, she just sort of works on scripts. Right. Yeah. You sure someone has been freaking around with the wikipedia? Oh, maybe. That would be amazing. But, maybe that'd be amazing But that's what I read and this is Carrie Bickmore

No Because that yeah, that didn't at no point here. I might talk about Carrie Bickmore. Okay, great So I could say Carrie I hear Carrie Bickmore. I know, but I thought I was weird that you were talking about Carrie Bickmore in my report About Carrie Fisher. Yeah, it seemed a bit off topic. I don't know, it's just about carries. Right. Yeah. Also that one where the girl who gets veins on her face. Is that something?

So she's talking about the film. Kerry? Kerry? And that's all about someone getting veins. I don't. No, if it's about getting veins. She's got lines on her head. She's got a TV show Puberty Blues and you're confusing veins with Puberty Cat.

Tell me, uh, if you'd grab the vaso. I remember from the beginning. All I remember is a rack-off mowl. Rack-off mowl. Incredible. Yeah, sure. So about vaso and mowls. Yeah.

And banging in the back of a yut. Uh, panel man. To be young again. To be young again. To be young again. Oh, to be young again. It's romantic, Dave. Yeah.

Just because you haven't banged in the back of a panel there. Just because you've never had to grab the vaso. You know, a rack off, Mowl. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha. Great town trip. That's all you're going to be sharing some Australian culture. Yeah.

But then you listen as who are like big carry fish fans, obviously want to hear about her laugh a little bit more. You want to hear about puberty blues. Yeah. The Aussie classic film. Guys, if there are any big carry fish fans listening for the first time, they've stopped listening a while ago. Let's not kid ourselves.

They're cool. In 2001, she co-wrote, these old broads, and it's about three Hollywood stars who were brought together again for a TV special. They were like in a film musical called Boy Crazy Back in the 60s and it's being re-released so they're all being brought back together. But they all hate each other. So the film starred her mother, Debbie Reynolds, Joan Collins, and Shirley McClain as the three Hollywood stars who hate each other and are all managed by the same agent played by Elizabeth Taylor. Holy, schmoly. So she's got her mum and a old step mum.

That is a hot line up. Huge. That'd be one of the biggest on some blizzes of all time. Massive. So, that film did really, really well as well. It was a big success too. But it kind of cool that she co-wrote something that started her mom and like, her ex-step mom and very cool. For 15 years between 1991 and 2005, Carrie was one of the top script doctors in Hollywood,

working on screenplays of other writers. I had no idea. That's amazing. She was a great writer. Carrie was one of the top script doctors in Hollywood, working on screenplays of other writers. I had no idea. That's amazing. She was a great writer. In 2004, she published a sequel to her novel postcards from the Edge, and it was called The Best Awful There Is.

And a bit more about some of her writing as well, but she was also, all during this time, she voiced in a character and family guy, she voiced Peter Griffin's boss, Angela. Oh, right. Which I was like, I don't remember Angela, and then I looked up on YouTube, and I was like, oh yeah, okay.

And I only then watching it. I was like, oh my God, that is Carrie Fisher. But before that, I had no idea. She wrote and performed in her one woman play wishful drinking at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles. That's a pun. From November 2006 to January 2007. And then she toured the show all over the country in 2008 and published a book by the same

name based on the one woman play. So wishful drinking then opened on Broadway in New York and played an extended run from October 2009 until 2010. So over about four years she's performing this show. And then there's a book and then she's performing it some more. In December of 2009, she did an audiobook recording of Wish for Drinking and it earned her nomination for the 2009 Grammy Award in the Best Spoken Word Album Category and she lost to Michael J. Fox with always looking up. She was nominated for a Grammy for her audiobook. No, Michael J. Fox.

Michael J. Fox is one of the old time greats. Obviously playing Marigamek Fly, also Alex P. Keaton, and family ties, also the Wolfman in Teen Wolf. Yep. Some of the best. So I'm just saying, and obviously, when he speaks words, I listen. I don't know when. I do. I do know what you mean. I can't believe how much stuff she's done at a high, like at a high, critically acclaimed level. Yeah. I really thought this was going to be a sadder tale.

But this is just like, and then she was graded another thing. Yeah. And then she had to go up this, which she also was loved for. Wait, I just don't know any of this. I didn't really know a lot of this either. She's wickedly funny, but yeah, and a very good writer, very talented writer. So she's working on a lot of other people's scripts and

sort of helping them with their scripts. She's writing amazing shows for herself. Her books are doing really well. I think it's just very difficult to be from a very young age to be associated with Star Wars. Right, the biggest film of all time. I had that point and then, like one of the biggest franchises ever. So when we think of her, we think Princess Leia, even though she was like 22 or something then. And it did something for 40 years after that,

but unfortunately, it just gets overshadowed. Yeah, she did heaps. And I think Star Wars as well is like quite a serious role for her, but she's hilarious. She's really, really funny. She had various cameos on a lot of TV shows, including Sex and the City. It was even nominated for an Emmy for her performance when she guested as Rosemary Howard on an episode of 30 Rock called Rosemary's Baby. She was nominated for an Emmy just for that cameo.

Yeah, right. Very good. Hey, you know sex in the city. Yeah. There are four characters. I knew this would happen. Which one are we? Is that what I've seen it? Yeah. I've seen the movie and some episodes of the... I guess I'm the red-headed one because I got red hair. So I personally line up with her. That wouldn't be why you're her, but I reckon you probably are. Because she's a go-go-getter top quality lawyer. Yeah. I'm guessing Maceo is probably the Samantha. Yeah.

You are the... I'm Carrie. Are you Carrie? That means you're the boring one. Mr. Big. No. No, no, no, no. No, man. Come on. Which one shall it? Shall it. She's the brunette. Yeah. She's like the prude. Yeah, that's so sign me up. Do you all think it's Charles? Yeah. I'm Carrie because I'm I'm very introspective and kind of the worst. Oh, she's no good.

No, they're all shit. We just introduced a third carry here and I'm really confused. Oh, yeah. In a March 2013 interview, following the announcement that a new trilogy of films would be produced, Fisher confirmed that she'll reprise. What kind of trilogy is going to be?

Do you think it's going to be a remake of Big Foot Show? Big Foot Show. The Big Pink. Greg Watson television show, or whatever his name was. Imagine if they turn that into a movie, trilogy. Well, let's see if you can guess it. Fisher confirmed that she would reprise her role as Princess Leia. Yeah, I think it's Greg Watson's television program. There it is, he got it, God, he's good. I love how they still call it television program even though it was a movie now.

Yeah, I just love to keep it authentic. Yeah. She said she'd reprise the role in episode seven, the Star Wars of the Star Wars series. And she claimed that Leia was elderly. She's in an intergalactic old folks home now. I think she would be just like she was before, only slower and less inclined to be up for the big battle. And this scoop took off. The media picked it up. They're like, oh my god, she's going to be in it slower and less inclined to be up for the big battle. And this scoop took off. The media picked it up. They're like, oh my god, she's going to be in it.

It's going to be huge. But nothing had actually officially been confirmed at all. So media outlets are reporting it. This is back on March 6, 2013, after which her representatives had to say, on the same day, the fish was joking, but nothing had been announced. And it wasn't until the following January, so nearly a year later, that she confirmed her involvement and the involvement of the original cast in the upcoming sequels. But it's pretty funny that she kind of trolled them.

She's like, yeah, so, uh, ladies, uh, in an old folks home now, out in space. And, uh, people like, this down right this down right down and running to a pay phone yeah yeah yeah uh... anyway so the fours away games release worldwide on December 18th 2015 and Fisher was nominated for 2016 sat in a ward for best supporting actress for her portrayal

and uh... around the same time or or sorry, just the next year, her memoir, The Princess Diorist, was released in November 2016. The book's based on Dior, she kept while filming the original Star Wars trilogy in the late 70s and early 80s. There's a lot in there as well about, I was around the time of, she was driving with drug addiction

and alcohol and stuff like that. So it's, yeah, pretty interesting to be based on those diaries that she was keeping during that time. It was very scandalous as well because in the book she mentioned a three-month affair she had with Harrison Ford during the filming of Star Wars, which previously had never been mentioned before. And he was in that film as well. He played the character on solo. Is that true? Dave? I can't remember what his character was called. I like it when I was a little bit. I don't remember the biggest character. I don't remember Darth Vader, Princess Leia. Jar Jar Binks. Yeah, my favorite character. God, he was funny.

Jar Jar thinks. Yeah, my favourite character, God, he was funny. So, it's a witty dialogue and funny noises. I love funny noises. But also really endearing. Oh yeah, cute. So cute. Ticked all the boxes. Can I bring you back?

Yeah. You do like Star Wars. I hope he turns spin off film. I think that's it. I think that's it. I think that's it. I think that's it. I think that's it. I think that's it. I think they bring you back. Yeah. You do like Star Wars. I think that's got to be in the works. It feels like they can't sit on a cash cow like that for too long.

What did happen to him? Mino, Mino, so sorry sir. Is that sort of what he would talk about? Yeah. I think at the end of the film, Mino, so sorry. At the end of the film, we'll be- Me no, so sorry. At the end of the film,

it was just like poochie on the Simpsons. No, I have to leave. And he's just sort of dragged out of a shot and goes to his home planet to never return. Yeah. Good. In her later years, Carrie had an emotional support animal, a French bulldog named Gary.

Oh, here we go. This is the start. Well done. This is good. Thank you so much. And she brought him to numerous appearances and interviews. He'd be with her everywhere. He's very cute.

Can you chew it? He's got lots of... Gary. Lots of times, Gary's with her as well. Little French bulldog. Did she ever come to your show, Dave? In your time? Nothing I knew of. Wow. with her as well. Did she ever come to your show, Dave? In your time?

Nothing I knew of. I'm sure I've seen her on there, but maybe it was before your time. What show are you thinking of? Fact Effect. The project, you think of? Thank you, man. I thought you were not going to be like, did you ever come and see you do stand up? Yeah, did you ever come to

a real world record show or no? I think the project did a cross tour before. I don't know if she was alive in the studio. Yeah, I do feel like you remember that as well. Good memory there, mate. Yeah, and I reckon it was maybe around the time of these d'arris coming out. Yeah, quite possibly.

So finally. The time you So coming on my quiz show. All right. She did great. Carrie is at porn or not porn. She's very funny. She'd be up for it. She would be very good. Well in 2016 she was on a huge book tour for her Princess Dyrist book and I she's still handwriting them. Yeah took ages She only had when I say like oh based on her Dyrist from the seven it was just her Dyrist so one copy Yeah, just everyone took a tear everyone have a look have a quick squeeze stop hogging it fast it on Have a quick squeeze. Stop hogging it. Pass it on. Read faster. Anyway, so she's just finishing up the European leg of her book tour. And she was on a flight from London to LA.

And around 15 minutes before the plane landed, she had a medical emergency. And a fellow passenger reported that she wasn't breathing. And another passenger performed CPR until paramedics arrived. She was taken by ambulance to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, where she was placed on a ventilator. And on the morning of December 27, 2016, after being in intensive care for four days, Fisher died at the age of 60 at the UCLA Medical Center.

And the next day, her mother Debbie Reynolds suffered a stroke while she and her son Todd were making funeral arrangements for Carrie. And so that was the next day, so that was the 28th of December. She was taken to hospital where she died later that afternoon, so they died within a day of each other. That's amazing. Isn't it? Isn't it sort of bizarre and weird and poetic? It's a bit of everything.

Yeah, brutal for Todd. Yeah. So they had a joint, there was a joint private memorial for both of them on the 5th of January 2017. So like a week later, this is so good. A portion of Fish's Ashes were laid to rest beside her mother in a crypt at Forest Long Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills. The remainder of her ashes are held in a giant novelty pro-Zac pill. And where's the pill? I don't know, I would assume with their family, with their daughter or a brother. Whatever that is. She's just such a like, she's a real flycracker and all of it into this stuff she's very funny and I think that's I think she would have found

that I was probably her idea I would guess she would find that very funny. It'd be such a weird call to make. Yeah. I know what would be funny. Trust me. I should think this is funny. Yeah. I can't believe it. Yeah, 60 years to fit so much shit into so much huge in 2016 so The year that she had of our Lord 2016 the year of our Lord Harvard College gave Fisher. I'm just just to finish up. I've just got a few like 16th year of L.O.D. Harvard College gave Fisher, just to finish up, I've just got a few like kind of awards and other things as well. It's fun fact awards?

No, that fun. Just interesting, nice way to wrap it up, rather than being like, she died. Bye. Harvard College gave Fisher its annual Outstanding Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism, noting that her fourth-right activism and outspokenness about addiction, mental illness, and mental illness have advanced public discourse on these issues with creativity and empathy. She was also- So that's an uncompetitive award, right?

That makes sense. It's an honorary award. She was also, I always say this word wrong, posthumously. No, now of it. Yes! If you stuff it off again, there's a copy and paste. You, posthumously. No, no. No. Yes! If you stuff it off again, just copy and paste, are you saying that one there? Yeah, nice.

She was posthumously made, a Disney legend in 2017, and in 2018, she was awarded a posthumous Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word album, so that would have been for Princess Dyerist, so she got that Grammy. Along with being a celebrated actress and writer, Carrie was a supporter and advocate for several causes, including women's advocacy, animal rights, and LGBT causes. She was open about her experiences, caring for friends

who suffered from AIDS, contributed financially to various AIDS and HIV organizations, including hosting a benefit for the Foundation for AIDS Research. And she also served as an honorary board member of the International Biopolar Foundation. And in 2014, she received the Golden Hard Award for her work with the Midnight Mission, which is a not-for-profit that provides services and assistance, like educational training, a mobile kitchen, and family housing with an emphasis on developing self-sufficiency for the underprivileged.

So yeah, as Matt just said, 60 years, she fit in a lot of stuff. Amazing. Yeah. Right, so she's like, obviously hugely successful actress, award-winning author. Great drug user. Great drug user.

That's actually used a lot like a probably record amounts of certain stuff. And well, you know? Really? To use some well. And that is admirable. Yeah. So that is my report on the life of Carrie Fisher.

Great report. I should have said it as well. I forgot to say at the start, it was suggested by quite a few people. I pulled this one out of Carrie Fisher. Great report. I should have said it as well.

Jordan says there was a species of frog that was found in Queensland in the early 70s. The females would swallow their fertilized eggs and after six weeks, they wouldad out. I can't believe it. What's going to be?

What's going to vomit out? What's it going to be? Coins? What's it going to be? Bommad out. So it's crony turning out in jokes. They vomit out. Live fully developed frogs.

Around 20 of them. I'll keep going. Thank you. Oh. But they went extinct by the 80s because humans ruined everything. And fungal disease everything and fungal disease A fungal disease that was introduced accidentally by humans wiped out the gastric brooding frogs and many other amphibians

supporters for their support. And normally Jessica gives us a game to go along with the name. Oh yeah. This week, what's it gonna be? I kind of like to name their memoir. Oh great. What do you reckon? Like the edge of the bush?

What was it? The edge of the postcards from the edge. Postcards from the edge. Or like the Princess Dyrus. Did you reckon there were any people disappointed that they weren't a series of postcards from the YouTube guitarist? Yes.

I reckon a lot of the sales were that... For some sort of art installation. But all bookshops, like, clued onto that pretty quickly and changed their refund policies. Yeah, great. No refunds? Yes. It used to be full refund. Now it's no refund. But they still kept it in the YouTube section

So I know sometimes that's a cool way for people to share the episodes with friends that may not be podcasted. And a bunch of the live ones from recent months or last year will be going up around now, I think.

I can't remember. I've been, sorry, I've been bits like on it, but I think we'll be back up today sometime in the near future. Absolutely. I'm a sure and biguous time frame.

Hmm. And I know he does because he's long dead. Yeah. He never knew. He never knew. He never knew. No. The giants that he would be listed next to you. Yeah. That's weird for someone to walk on the shoulder, stand on the shoulder of giants when those

people haven't even been born yet. But that's what we're hoping for too. One day we'll be lifted up long after we die. That's right. That's the dream. Before to that. Anyway. We got that. Anyway. We got to go now.
