Starting point is 00:00:00 A LISTEN-UP PRODUCTION Activate your internet Cause the Hamish and the Podcast starts in 3, 2, sorry, still buffering 1 Oh, hi, Andrew. Sorry he was dancing to the music and had been reading something else. Well, you're reading. Well, I've got something exciting to share with you guys in a second. I was just double checking. I've got it in front of me.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Okay, she's saying it's not prep. No, I suppose prep would happen before the show. Yeah. So it was, that was intro show, intro show, cramming. Yes. So to get, I got it would have been before the show. Yeah. So it was, that was the intro show, intro show, cramming. Yes. So to get, I got it up just in time. Yep.
Starting point is 00:00:50 So God, I was close to having Prep done. How do I got this up? Five seconds earlier, I would have counted as Prep. Yeah, but as unfortunately, it can be as, yes, intro show on the fly cramming. But I'm here and I'm excited. Oh, what are you, Jack? Oh, hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:01:04 How does it feel with someone that's not present? You just experienced that from hanging in the jack. Oh, no, I thought it was a cute quirk. Like, oh, that's just me. That doesn't come from me. That doesn't come from me. It was a nice little sort of a sim, little distraction sim for Jack to go,
Starting point is 00:01:25 what is it like to be in a room of three? Instead of having the triangle of attention, you have one solid beam of attention between two, and then a variable whisper going on the other side. I'm also a Hoi to Jason. He sent him what he's up to from New York City. Ohoy boys, this is Jason from New York City. It's currently July 20th 1969, and I'm watching New Armstrong right now getting out of his spaceship, and he's about to take his first steps on the moon. Must be pretty nice. I'll be working on uploading this file right away.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Not sure how long it might take to reach you guys. And happy birthday. Yeah, again, Jason, you joking. He's not, it didn't sound like a joke to me. It's very easy to use the system. You should come if you'd like to tell us what you're up to and potentially be at the top of the pod home.
Starting point is 00:02:19 You see the top control of the stuff. I just said, I got some good stuff coming in. Two rolling issues from a couple of weeks ago that have come back to us. The first one was we've been looking into this for I would say nine on a year now, the health star rating. The health star system on foods. Who does the stars? Who does the stars?
Starting point is 00:02:44 We have many theories flying around about who does the stars. Why is Salah Kreme half a health star? And why is steak cut pub chips four and a half stars? Out of a possible five, who does the stars? And the stars, we reached out, we found who does them. They don't even know us. They've put the hand I'm saying, no, don't talk to you. Yeah, it's like a scene at a stranger things where like the authorities like just don't look
Starting point is 00:03:10 here, don't just don't be here. And you're like what's going on? It wasn't a very nondescript sort of Soviet era concrete building. It's where they're doing the star rating. And we needed detective that the hunter caused the hunt to try and track Harrison Ford S. Hunk, please. If we also put a call out more recently for a mole and that is what I've got. That is what I've got.
Starting point is 00:03:37 As we know, we've long theorized that the stars aren't mandatory because some companies choose not to play. Some companies that are in supermarkets, you know, a pastoral or something, would rather not say what stars they are. It would rather not be random. You don't ask someone what they own and you don't ask me how many stars I am. If you would like to enjoy me on your personal, it's an inflict show. You don't know how many people watch.
Starting point is 00:04:04 Everyone's telling me it's great. But I don't release the figures. Works for us. And if you'd like it, enjoy. So we've known it was up to you. Anyway, this came to a friend and he said, look, I've got someone that consulted for 12 months at the company that does the stars.
Starting point is 00:04:22 And this person that consulted, he'd be happy to talk. And I said, fantastic, we're doing the podcast tomorrow. Can we call them? Yeah, probably. And now this guy's getting called feet. Right. So, don't worry, we can put the fake voice in my code. Yeah, but my code.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Put the vocoder on to Masky's voice. Friend panicked. Yeah. Again, adding weight to the theory that the people that do the stars are a much more powerful government organisation. Or we first gave them credit for. Or just unsure whether Jack would be able to work the vocoder fee. Which is also...
Starting point is 00:04:54 And my voice is being masked as it goes. Absolutely. And you'll beep it out when I say my Dan, my name's Dan Williamson. Yeah, we'll beep that out. No worries there, Dan. And I'll beep that, beep out, beep out. No worries there, Dan. And I'll beat that, beat out two ways, call you Dan. So there might have been two areas of concern for him. Daxiability to work the desk, which is a valid concern, and the hammer coming down from the
Starting point is 00:05:18 authority that is the hell star rating that don't care what's in their way. He's the thing, he goes, because the reason this guy's nervous to come on is because technically they all sign an NDA. Really? And now that's just, I mean, this just tells me that we are onto something. Very often do I really genuinely feel like we're onto something,
Starting point is 00:05:39 but we are onto something here. They're not allowed to talk about it. So I just said, okay, well, can I go back as it's through an intermediary and made of mine? So can I just ask a few questions? Like, don't have to come on the show, can I ask a few questions? Is it opt-in, is it confirming it's opt-in?
Starting point is 00:05:53 And why, if it's opt-in, why are some people? Why would you opt-in to assist him? Why would sour cream opt-in? It's a system that displays it as a half a star out of five. I mean, why would you do stand up at a festival that routinely just gives you half a star? You'd prefer not to be reviewed. You're not selling any tickets at half a star. Unless someone at the sour cream factory thinks it's low, low, with a better, like golf.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Yeah. And it's almost a zero sour cream. So, it keeps celebrating the half star like golf. Yeah. Andy, and almost a zero cello cream. Keep celebrating the half star. Okay. Here's what I got. This is great. The reason that it is opt-in, but you can't opt-in if you're opting in, let's say you have a cello cream company, like Andy's dairy, and you've got a nice creamy yogurt
Starting point is 00:06:45 and a sour cream. If you want that big fat four star for your low fat yogurt, poor choice of words by me, if you want that big juicy four star for your low fat yogurt, you need to get start on all your products. So that's where we're gonna get you on your ice cream, we're gonna ping you for a one and a half, and that's where I'm gonna seriously give you half for your sour cream, because you wanted your ice cream, we're going to ping you for a one and a half and that's why I'm mysteriously going to give you half to your sailor cream because you wanted your
Starting point is 00:07:07 big star pig, you wanted for your yogurt. So that's what happens. So the people that are getting, when you see a half, it means somewhere else in the range, they've taken a hit on that because they think it's worth it to go for and up for four or five. They're the frontline soldiers. They're being sent in to be slaughtered for the good, for the good, of the big, for the low-fair. Yeah, meanwhile, the generals are sitting there laughing their heads off.
Starting point is 00:07:32 In the same dairy-candy case. Yeah. On the upper shelf, laughing their heads off. Yeah. You know, heckling. As the four star yoghats flying off the shelf, they're all heckling the half-star sailor going, oh, nearly mate, someone looked, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:47 someone, someone's nearly bored. Close one. Yeah. Oh, I like the thing that they are thanking him as he goes out to do the hard, the hard job. Yeah. That was the unpopular choice. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Anyway, so that is what's happening. Then this guy goes, although some companies are beginning to ask if there's a way that they could just have a bit of their product start, in which case I go, if this is happening, what's the point of the start? Exactly. What's the point? It's always just going to become five stars or nothing.
Starting point is 00:08:19 If you open this loophole up to the star assistant, people are just going to go, well, and yeah, we'll hear celery. We do a bit of celery, so we'd like a five star on that. But we think we'll keep our deep fried donuts. Yeah, we might just tuck that one away for us. Keep it as a state secret. Right. OK.
Starting point is 00:08:38 The plot continues, we're still welcoming moles to come forward to have more to this pie. Second thing I want to bring up is a couple weeks ago on the show, we talked about old El Paso and the evolution, the frustration that must be at headquarters for all El Paso as customers continue to not be able to get all the Mexican food into their mouth without some mess, without some spillage. Couple of things, couple of things came to my attention, Andy. The first one was, you know how we were saying, we didn't remember the name of the tube.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Of the tube. Essentially, it's a tube. It's a tube of tortilla. And that is now the evolution of the boat, because the boat people are still spilling, you know, some fajita was getting off the edge of the boat. I've never seen a tube yet. Is it softshell, is it? Softshell tube, yeah. They're called pockets, or the tortilla pockets,
Starting point is 00:09:35 but it's basically a tube. Yeah, you can't. You would think you can't miss it. Got sent this. Someone DMed me on Instagram, Isaac, and he goes, mate, really liked listening to the old El Paso bit Wasn't aware of the tubes so I googled it to find out what they are this review sent me into fits So someone's gone online and reviewed the old El Paso tubes which are designed to
Starting point is 00:10:00 Get all the all the all the food in your mouth. No, no, no, finally, after all these years of hardshell softshell boat now. 20 a kid thrown in the air. In the small Mexican town. Finally, you know, all of us has gone, they must, they must be able to get it in them. Yeah, there must be nothing left. This review comes in. Well, this is the review. Still gives them two stars. Well, deaf, these are tears of lovely and soft, but definitely not no mess. That claim on the
Starting point is 00:10:31 packet was completely inaccurate. We ate them with a pulled pork and it splirted everywhere, making far more mess than the burger buns we would normally use. Would work with small amounts of dry filling. So because a poor pork has a juice in it, you assume that the juice is degraded. Degrade the structure of the grade at the bottom of the tube. And that has caused a fracture. Seemingly impossibly once again splitting the Mexican food delivery system open for Mexican food to fall onto the plate,
Starting point is 00:11:06 enraging the old El Paso customer, and causing them to return to the company and go, you thought you could get it in our mouth? You thought you had it. Bet you couldn't, because we found a way to screw it up, and it dumped, and we're still hungry. We're still hungry, so what are you gonna do? Well, back to the drawing board, I guess.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Back to the drawing board, and you think to yourself, what can they do? Can they invent some sort of edible waterproofing sleep? Like when you're retarbing your bathroom, it's a flashing. They need flashing inside the toilet. You need a waterproof membrane. They need an edible waterproof membrane. Because it doesn't there.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Yes. Van, they must think, can these idiots get the proper fit to their mouth? And I've got some exciting news, and the edible waterproof membrane could be on the way. Because as we talked about the tube tube the autopazotube audio passos themselves DM to me. We're simply this the eyeball looking emoji The burrito emoji the taco emoji and in the words
Starting point is 00:12:20 Stay tuned. Oh, that's so exciting. That's not specifically in reference to the edible waterproofing membrane, the flashing inside the pocket. But that's the direction they'd be going. But there is only one more step to go. Hey, I also want to play something, but just while we're still on the auto-passo thing, a few people picked up on this and I feel like we've got to cover off on this. This is actually when we started talking about auto-passo. Jack, you said you had a bone to pick with auto-passo feel like we've got to cover off on this. This is actually when we started talking about older Opasso. Jack, you said you had a bone to pick with older Opasso, but we never got to the bone.
Starting point is 00:12:50 This is the audio. Remember we started talking about this. This might joke you remember, hang on, play the audio. We're a fan of older Opasso. Oh yes, it's one of the rough. Don't you think it's enough? We can't afford that. Oh, Jack's fault.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Jack's absolutely full as a goat with peanut butter. Admission chips. I actually have, if I can jump on the very end of this, I've got a bone to pick with old alpaca. Oh. Yeah, and then we went on a 12 minute rant about it. Then we got into the chub and we completely forgot about it and we've had a few people go, hey, we didn't hear Jack's bone.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Yes, and great that you have a direct line of communication with them now, Hamish, you might be able to ask them this. They sell taco mix, which you mix in with the mince meat or the chicken, as you're cooking your tacos. They have a chili rating out of three. So they'll highlight how many chilies of spice it is. I don't think there's such a thing as all three chilies spiced up. I think they have mild at one chili and medium at two chilies,
Starting point is 00:13:45 but I don't think there exists the three chili have you punched? Look for it. I've looked for every time I go to the supermarket, I will look through their mouth. You don't think they do a hot? I don't think they do a hot unless you can't fight in supermarkets.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Oh, too dangerous. Because you know they do on the salsa lids, they do grain-mild yellow medium, there is a red hot lid. Yeah, and implies having three chilies out of, you know, counting out of three chilies implies there's a third chili. Okay, so just so I'm clear, on the icon, there'd be three outlines of chilies. Yep. And one filled in for kind of mild, two filled in for medium, but still one waiting to be filled for hot, and I've never seen the hot pack.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Get onto it, eh? I will get onto this, Andy. I'm also surprised they go with one for mild. That seems too many. That seems like too much, Chile. If I saw one Chile icon for mild, mild is actually really... None. Almost none.
Starting point is 00:14:42 It's basically just peppery tomato. Yeah. I think they're using it more of less of how many chilies they're putting in just more as a scale. So if they just had nothing on the side, it would be harder. I'm just saying nothing, but can you do a half? Oh yeah. But they have a cap, could they actually have a capsicum first, then two chilies? Could actually have Capsicum first then to you, which made colour in the Capsicum. I, uh, they kind of need us to work for them. I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Well, hey, we kind of are. We're full up on the 10 minute brains. And I guess hopefully in due course we'll hear back for them. Right. Yeah, absolutely. Edible membrane. Come on. really edible membrane, come and see. But very rare will we bring our own power moves to the table. We've had a few. Yeah. We've had a few in the past. One occurred to me the other day and this hasn't come in an email, but who knows, maybe it's floating around. We just haven't seen it yet. But you know what phrase I love in movies?
Starting point is 00:15:55 Is when somebody, it's usually to sort of, you know, let's say there's a crime boss or someone, and somebody makes a bold suggestion or whatever and there's a tense moment. Usually the crime boss will go, I like the balls on this guy and then kind of like agree to entertain their thought. But it still keeps the crime boss in a very high position. I nominate and I try this out at a cafe the other day Where it's a place we go a lot and so I kind of know the guy there But I was like let's let's we could up this yeah, we could up this you get up this just changes go go counter to the Tell them and say he guys ready to order and I said to my wife. I like the balls on this guy. Okay, you kid So to any request you can make it look like it was balls of them to ask you, but you're going to allow it.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Really like it. It's my home park. And this one's from Tom. Hey boys, a subtle yet extremely effective power move. If you're ever leaving your family or partner for a few nights on a trip, take all the toothpaste with you. Oh!
Starting point is 00:17:10 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! And I can't be disabled. He goes, I could explain it, it leaves them stranded like, we know.
Starting point is 00:17:20 No! It's a terrific way. And if they notice, just send them a shot of you lounging with it at the hotel. Great one. And it comes in from Kathy. Sneezing power move. Like a sneezing power move. Don't interested in the environment.
Starting point is 00:17:36 COVID-19. It is, but why not bring a bit of fun back to it? When someone sneezes more than twice, wait for them to sneeze again. So I guess she's, when someone's got to run on, wait for them to sneeze again before saying firmly, that's your last one. LAUGHTER LAUGHTER I really like it.
Starting point is 00:17:58 I don't really like it, happy, but she's thought about this, because if you go, OK, that's two. I'll let him have three, because if they stop, it makes it look like you stopped him. Yes. And if they keep going, then it just makes them look like they're an absolute renegade. Betrayed you, but I like her idea that three is usually the max. I agree. Three is normally the max, so it does feel like that they're a bit... You were good chance to have him a bat.
Starting point is 00:18:23 This is from Tim from Brisbane, Pam. Powmove, when someone is looking for something that they've lost, say, there it is. And when they say where, say, I'm just practicing for when I find it. Just... And I've seen this down in real life. It's classic, but it's a good one. Yeah. Aaron has sent this in. When you're with a friend that buys communal food for the table, like chips or wedges, tell anyone who listen, if you're the person that hasn't
Starting point is 00:19:02 bought them, tell anybody who listen. Feel free to have some. There for everyone. He's just making a book like you will be person who got the food for the table. Really like it. Hey, this one is from Jordan and he says, I saw this on Reddit and it's a power move. So it's a little unconventional, it's a little longer. There are some classics that float around from Tata. I mean, the all-time classic that we get off over and over kind of goes in waves was the you put the candle in front of the the air freshener. Yeah. To a little flying through the water. The
Starting point is 00:19:37 water that one that the cable goes off. Yeah. This one was just a guy's post. So it has happened. Set a friend of mine got panced, underwear and all the party, so he got dapped, everything came down. Instead of pulling his underwear and pants up immediately, he just kept going about his business with hanging dong. Wow. Those of us that knew him thought was hilarious, some of people at the party that didn't know him,
Starting point is 00:20:03 really got uncomfortable. Yep. As he went across to play table tennis, William thought it was hilarious. Some people at the party that didn't know really got uncomfortable. As he went across the plate table tennis, the host came up to him and said, dude, why don't you pull your pants up? Pants guy said, I didn't pull them down. No! No!
Starting point is 00:20:17 No! No! No! No! The host then found the guy to pick them down and made the employees man's back up. Oh, nothing control. Really, not a bad guy, sir.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I understand the distress it's causing, but I'm not responsible for the pants being lowered. stress it's causing but I'm not responsible for the pants being lowered. Hame excited about this all week. Here we go. Homissionary Digital Stable is up. We are of course talking about this new crypto horse racing. Digital Z horses, Z racing. Z horses, you buy them with Ethereum, which is a cryptocurrency, which is a crypto, you get I going.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Guess we get paid in Ethereum. Jack's keen on the payment side of these are looking, his wallet is looking his lips. I've never seen a wallet have a tongue, but it's a game. I'm a little $20 bill comes out. That's a sweet cash cash. No, I'm just excited about the sport. I mean, money, windfall is a bonus. Okay, lovely.
Starting point is 00:21:36 And that's what we are all excited about the day when we get our digital horse as racing. Yep. Last week we met our trainer, Christian, who really seems like he knows what he's doing in the digital horse arena. One thing we've got to ask that I've been asked quite a lot is, what does it actually look like when a horse runs? Like, can you watch the race?
Starting point is 00:21:56 Is it just the printout of results? He joins us right now. Why do you Christian? Digital hoi boys, how you going? Digital hoi, Christian. The first off the bat, what does it actually look like when the horse races? Do we see a race or what do we see? So there's races that pop off every single minute, right? And there's I think now we're up to about
Starting point is 00:22:17 nine different tracks. Really well-designed futuristic think tron,, thinking looking into like the year 2050, where we're sort of evolved as a human race. And we're now watching these digital race tracks up in the sky above the skylines of some of the biggest cities in the world. Wow. Oh, sorry, you're watching. That's what you're seeing.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Right, so you could be everything. So we all like pop on our Oculus goggles or whatever That's what you're seeing. Right, so that could be everything. That's what I watch. We all pop on our Oculus goggles or whatever, and then that could be how we go and watch digital horse racing. Well, they're building race tracks if anyone knows anything about the metaverse and decentralized land. They're building actual race tracks. They could actually go to the racetrack and watch it.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Like on the Oculus, or we can walk around with your friends and go to the racetrack and watch it. Like on your Oculus or you can walk around with your friends and go to the racetrack there. At the moment, the best place to watch it's just on your phone or on your computer, on the Z Run website and you can actually just watch the live racers or replays there. Are they horses running? Are they the shape of horses running like a graphic? Yeah, absolutely. So if you haven't seen them running yet, you've got 12 lanes, 12 horses running down a straight line. As I said, on one of the nine or 10 tracks, they're always straight. Always straight at the moment. There's been talks about round ones, but that's just a digital coding nightmare I've heard. Wow.
Starting point is 00:23:37 So you can have a racetrack floating above a city, but put a bend in it. That's 2070, mate. Okay, get that done by 2050. Awesome okay well Christian you said we've transferred the money I've seen it leave our cows so thank you for coming today. You trust all your trust fall is complete. You're fast the first test. Talk us through. You trust all your trust fall is complete. You're fast the first test talk us through. Yeah, let's talk Um, how'd you go this week trying to acquire the will we want you to sit out and get the good horse? We wanted the champion not one of the misfits would yeah, but what was it or shit? Um, no one of the misfits how'd you go acquiring the good horse?
Starting point is 00:24:25 So the first thing we had to do was set up the stable. And we had a couple of chats about the stable name. Yeah. The one we spoke about was taken. So I took it upon myself to just name it for now. We might have a word about this. But the stable name is called Happy Birthday Andy. Yeah, we're changing it, immediately. It's going to be called, hey, machine-ady stables.
Starting point is 00:24:41 So people will be able to check it out there. Yeah. But yeah, nice little dig Christian. Talk us through though. What, how does it work buying a horse? Like, did you go to the marketplace? Was it, we, the, we were, we were ebbs the CEO of this digital racing was talking about a drop of horses. Do we get it in the drop? So what we're buying here is called a Genesis horse. So these are, these the limited edition horses. There's only ever gonna be 38,000 of them ever
Starting point is 00:25:09 in the history of the game. So that's where they get their rearer ready from. And they currently are, they're bred on the ecosystem and drops to the community in these drop format. Now, they're almost sold out, okay? And at the moment we have probably about four times the amount of people trying to get in versus the amount of horses that were left.
Starting point is 00:25:30 So I was into mine. I was thinking, do I try my luck in the drop, or do I hit the secondary market, the P2P market, and try and find an unraised Genesis horse there for the same price as the drop. So I went knowing what I've known from previous drops. I found one that was exactly the same price and I pulled the pin. I just said, you know what, I'm not going to risk it on the drop. I'm going to buy this one and this will be the first horse. I pulled the trigger. I think pulling the pin is...
Starting point is 00:26:03 We're even getting out. Yes, pull the trigger. All the pin on the grenade, and which caused an explosion of value. We hope. Right. So we have all, sorry, let's be clear, we have a horse.
Starting point is 00:26:17 You have a horse. Great. So does the horse come named already because we bought on the second hand market? So all of the Genesis horses named already because we bought it on the second hand market? So, all of the Genesis horses come pre-names. You can only name your horse once you breed them. Right, right, okay. So, what's our horse name?
Starting point is 00:26:32 You ready for this? Yes. Thunder Castle. Thunder Castle. Yeah. I think you mentioned before you were talking about a lightning last time. So, very close. Very close.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Thunder Castle. Like it. Like it. And give us, give us thundercastles stats like boy or girl. She's a girl. She's a Philly. So the idea. We get babies. You heard a breeder. That's right. Yep. She's right in the middle of, she's right in the middle of the, of the, the rarity Z numbers. So they come from Z1 to 10. Yep. Um, and she's a Z5, Z5 genesis. Love it. Right. Now, I remember reading about this very early days with Z digital horses. What's the Z1 is the best, isn't it? And Z10 is the least best. Yeah. Easy way to do it. And the, the, the costs range from the costs range from 120 USD for a Z10 up to 40,000 USD for a Z1. And we've got ourselves a Z5. Z5's nice. We like it on shelf. Not lagging back in behind.
Starting point is 00:27:34 We like it. Maybe part of the curve. Okay, so we like this Z5. Any misfits purchased yet? Not yet. So this comes back together. together second half of that story about the drop. It didn't go to planned. And it came in ways and actually had to stop the drop halfway through. So we were actually in the second half of the drop in the third wave. And it stops maybe five, ten minutes before it was our turn to pick up a horse. So very happy with the decision of hitting the secondary market and just getting one secured.
Starting point is 00:28:10 So the wave's gonna actually, the new drop's gonna come in the next sort of week or two. I'll keep having a look on the T2P market to see if there's anything else that comes up at a good price, but I think we'll use the next drop to pick up one or two more horses there and start getting the other stable. so we own Thundercastle right now. It's in the stable, ready to race whenever we're ready to start racing. How much was she?
Starting point is 00:28:33 Just for everybody. Oh yeah, that's good question. She was 3800 USD. So it's used close to half of the budget. Yeah. Yeah. Wow, he ando. That feels good though, doesn't it? It feels smart. It feels right. And it is on behalf of the budget. Yeah, wow, Eando. That feels good though, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:28:45 It feels smart. It feels right. And it is on behalf of the people. Let's not forget, Eando, that the loyalty card from last year has far more than this. And this? And then we're happy to do that as a service to the listeners and the people.
Starting point is 00:28:57 But this is very exciting. This is a great use of the joint accounts money. I really like this. So how long does it take to make a baby in the digital horse world? Like could we give her a cheeky baby this week? Could we have a race for the baby? Yeah, but she might be able to bang one out very fast. They normally can, they normally can, but they're actually breeding itself takes, you know, a matter of a couple of minutes, breeding time down at the moment until the 12th of July.
Starting point is 00:29:25 So we're gonna have to sit on our hands until the 12th of July to start breeding again. So we'll try and build up a few more. So why don't you go about the training part, which is you just start running it in a few spots, you know, practice matches. Practice matches, but what we'd love is you to set a date for its first race,
Starting point is 00:29:43 the one that's big money race. And then everyone can log on and we can all watch Thunder Castle go at it. Is that a good plan? Great idea. I like it. And also, so I'm just going back to the babies. When they breed,
Starting point is 00:29:58 like, so it's like a few minutes to inseminate them, how long's gestation? Instant. Right, so then they're pregnant. And then they're pregnant, they're bred, and the horse can hit the track the next minute. She can raise her post-partum, one minute post-partum. Far out. Okay, it's a whole new world, this digital stuff.
Starting point is 00:30:17 And she's riding in the sky above the city, but not on a bend. So they breed, but you get a baby, and then the horse is running one minute later. That's right. What you can choose to. You can choose to. Yeah, sure. I mean, choose. Give it a size.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Or when you look at that race and this guy is there, this tiny digital horse trying to keep up. Hopefully, they're all the same size. Okay. So it comes out fully grown. Yeah, fully grown. I guess the difference is the colors on the track. There's quite a few different colors and different rarity of the colors for collectors items or whatnot. So we've got
Starting point is 00:30:53 a dark moss coat color, a nice dark green. Love it. Love it. Thundercastle will ride soon. We'll be we'll be in touch next week. Thanks so much, Christian. Thanks, Lutz. Awesome. Hey, it's been a while. I've got a song sleuth for you guys. Oh, the sleuth is back. This sounds like this sounds like this sounds like this. If this sounds like that, I'm your man. Andy Lee, Song Sluth Hey, this one comes in from Oliver O'Donohoo. What people come in, thin them in, and similar to with both things wide open at times,
Starting point is 00:31:36 they're piling up at a bit. Absolutely, piling up. You got to do your own research a little bit, because they'll say, hey, this song sounds like that, yeah, it's actually a cover. Oh, yeah, yeah. I've also had, yes, they acknowledge, just go to Wikipedia. That's all they need.
Starting point is 00:31:53 They acknowledge that they are taking the rift in this modern music world. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore.
Starting point is 00:32:03 There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. There's a lot of fore. Well done and yes, but Oliver had gone the extra mile here and he said I can't find anything. I had an additional check and I couldn't find anything either. Okay. Song is from a guy called Matt Kerney who we don't know as a household name at the moment. No, I went to school with a Jake Kerney. Different, but different family. Different guy I would assume.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Due to the name's situation. He wrote this song which was a hit and was on our station. I think it's had a billion listens as well. So we'd probably know the song, maybe not the name, but this song wanted man. I know butch Cassidy or Sundance kid but it's gone with your heart with just one kiss. Do we know that song? I'm probably have heard it. An interesting, yeah, I mean, he writes his thieving ability, he doesn't even, because he lists two of the great thieves of all time,
Starting point is 00:32:59 two of the great cowboys, and then puts himself in the same category, but it's a heart-stealer. The warrior is, and Oliver pointed out to me that he said it sounds so spissiously like an edgierin song, what do I know? How are we feeling just off the bat gents? Go back to the regional heart-faving. Which came in first. Ed Sheeran has won that race by a full calendar year. Ed Sheeran 2017 Matt 2018. Now obviously we've talked about this before because when we're
Starting point is 00:33:58 not going to get too technical here we're in the music game we're in a band so we understand music. The thing about songs is, the thing about melodies tunes is it's notes in order to a certain time. And when you have a song you often have much more than one note. It's a collection of notes in a specific order. The longer you go, the less, the less new combinations there are. Yeah, we talk about this. We do do, and so the combinations ran out in 2017. But let me just count out the notes he's done.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, now really 12 and then me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me that's another 10. So he's got a he's got a primary 12 and then they sort of do split for the second secondary supplementary. So 2022 options to go in a different direction. Zigg does act in any time. Yes. So we took it to the lab as we do,
Starting point is 00:35:11 Marci, this is, now Matt has decided to go slower with his, which won't, which won't for anyone. Which I mean, we'll point once the, once the sleeves onto you, just slowing down to a job to distract him, won't deter the sleeve. But the pitch has not been changed whatsoever, the chords have not been changed. We've just slowed down, sorry, a quickened up mat so he's in time with Ed's, this is the two combined. I'm just a boy with a man show was right and shot done in that on the record
Starting point is 00:35:54 I was also a bass type instrument in there. He can't just add a bass and expect anything else base and expect it. You can't steal a Ferrari if he put a hat on it and go out to do a car. The cops will just take that off. They'll get you. So you're taking the hat off, you suspect that it is the same. Anyone else sniffing around on this where you're doing your investigation has it been bought up in any chat rooms, music sites? It was a meme. It's on, okay.
Starting point is 00:36:31 I noticed it was a meme. So people are aware of it. I think Matt would be aware of it. At the end of Ed Song, he does some humming and woo-hooing and what I found alarming. Yes. The last thing we want you to be. We like you being alert. and what I found alarming. LAUGHTER The last thing we want you to be.
Starting point is 00:36:47 We like you being alert. We don't like you being alert. It's Matt also decided to take part in this game. You'll hear it. I've got it for you now. The beat of the... Look, it changed the world in a moment. But what do I know? Oh, man. Oh, man. What do I know?
Starting point is 00:37:05 Oh, man. What do I know? Oh, man. What do I know? Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. And it is such an interesting thing. I think it happened, someone might have done a pair of chair and this, but I reckon it just happened more in the olden days that you'd have extra time in the studio and you could do silly noises. You just do sing however you felt.
Starting point is 00:37:32 I guess it's singing how you feel. Feelin' the music like, who's, who's, what's, what's, what's what's, whatever you feelin'. You just, I guess when you're recording the album, you might not be more about this, then Manda, you are an album, musician, I'm more of a live guy. But it seems to me that in the studio sessions, sometimes they might just say, have another take and just have fun with it. And the people might just start making some noises that they feel could fit.
Starting point is 00:38:01 It doesn't happen on every song though so I think that the fact that we've got two, you know, the second song here he's decided he felt the need to put some feeling noises in. I mean, I look, I like... I'm in the coffin. And he says, I love Matt Kerney as much as the neck. I was just... I was just...
Starting point is 00:38:21 I was just... I was just... I was just... I was just... I was just... I was just... I was just... I was just feeling it's clear that's what I've been trying to say for the last ten minutes. But, and it's not, and it's probably not just singly his fault, because I would say that the producers, as they were mixing this down, being worldly musicians would should have or could have gone, hey, is this sound a bit, especially if it's a little bit like the biggest solo artist in the entire world.
Starting point is 00:38:45 No, we're doing ooze. He's a hum. He does a hum. He does a hum. And I think, and if you were the person I met, Sam, let's just say, and this is pure speculation, let's just say someone heard this and went, hey, boss, I got a song for you. And they played it. And he went, yeah, this is great. And they didn't reveal that perhaps was heavily inspired by. Let it be by the bit where you're going. And then I think at the end, we just go, ooh, and you know, and you know,
Starting point is 00:39:13 I mean, that's the bit where you should have pulled yourself up. As a, as a, and again, I'm making this up. But if you are a song that, if you are, a song that's pitching to someone, you gotta cover your tracks a bit better than that. And that is... That's a hat on a car. TELLING THEME MUSIC
Starting point is 00:39:34 And I tell you what, I mean, a lot of things have changed since 1921 and 2021. Mm-hmm. Yes. One of the key... Oh, not one of the key things, but... I think I probably won't be able the key things is the internet. Or cars, cars planes, net health care, couple of big advancements, no leeches, more MRIs, across all specers. Yeah, lifting humanity up, hopefully as a whole.
Starting point is 00:40:02 A lot of stuff like that. Yeah, social justice, you know, you hope a lot of work to be done, but so this isn't one of the biggies, what about to announce? One of the big things that you will notice if you happen between those two years, as you jump a century, is in about 19 to 1920s, you haven't seen a movies and stuff. It seems to be that if you were often a man, because it was a much more misogynistic society, but often a man, if you were a man that could just sing a song, hold a tune, you could be the hero of a bar. For a night. Or a boat. or a boat, or a boat, if you're in a steam ship going across the Atlantic or something, or even like a campfire, it was regarded as, it was basically the regarded probably as
Starting point is 00:40:55 having the DVD as a heat. Like, let's say if someone was like, what do we do tonight? Well, I've got heat on DVD. Great. Let's watch that. We'll do that. And the excitement everyone goes like, oh, heat, that's a good movie. That vibe was the same as if someone said,
Starting point is 00:41:09 oh, well, Bill's here and he can sing a tune. Yeah, George. Or a song. And it was always, you know, like everyone would be quiet and Bill would take off his hat, usually, like put it on his chest. Like, I knew a girl from Counticleer with her in her eyes, where as green as a hair was fair.
Starting point is 00:41:34 She winked at me in the summer time. That was the girl from Counticleer. I know it's not even drinking their polins, but I don't think it builds anything. drinking their pints. Oh my God, they're built here. Absolutely, I love it going on. I hope they never invent the TAB because I love this. It's my favorite thing to do at a Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:41:51 You know who wishes they were in that time? Mike Liberal. Right, you're Mike. He's constantly trying to sing well for us. Yeah. You've got a half scholarship to sing. And I reckon you're singing was better back then. And I think it's sucks for us. You got a half scholarship and I reckon you're seeing was better back then. And I think it sucks for guys like that just born at the wrong time.
Starting point is 00:42:11 He's got to be much better back then as well. 100 years ago just going guys. I know an old Scottish ballad. Oh my god, please. This is what a treat to have you in the room. Yeah. Now you just, you don't get that. Hey, I was talking to a real estate agent, right?
Starting point is 00:42:33 Yeah. And you guys know that on my message bank, it says, you've missed me, but please leave a killer pop song after the picture. Gotcha, yeah. Yeah. I've kept this one, and I've been've been meaning to play it to you guys. His name's Phil, right? This, he's, he's, he's had a cracker.
Starting point is 00:42:52 He's had a cracker. Oh, I made me think a bit. Phil. Is the fact that it probably, I think, feels a bit older. Yep. And, and so. And Pop is hard to, I mean, we're talking talking about you can get away with anything in the ballad format
Starting point is 00:43:07 Mm-hmm, okay, pop is what's sure pop your last face Victor hard genre Does your chewing gum lose this flavor on the bed post overnight? If your mother says don't chew it do you swallow it in spite? Do you wrap it on your tonsils? Do you heave it less than right? Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bad post overnight? On the bad post overnight? Oh, but 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 I mean, a thousand marks for commitment just sends it. But he would have been Bill. Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Back in the day, I want to join Gumson. I mean, before he started, you'd be turning to your friend Stan and going, it's very funny. Why do you hear it? Wait, it's a whole song about chewing gum and what you like to do with it. I'm spoiling it. Just, just, just, just go for it, Paul. I mean, is it a jingle? Is it like a wrinkly song? Is it, I must be a known song for sure.
Starting point is 00:44:20 It's a ditty from the 1830s. I think that's, yeah. And I haven't kept the others, but it's not the first from the 1830. I think that's... Yeah, and I haven't kept the others, but it's not the first one he's left. It's like probably from the era when chewing gum first came out and was like, definitely cancerous. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:44:34 a mystery drug in it was 150 years ago. Amazing. Oh boy, oh boy. Hey guys, Mike here from the Hey Mission Andy team. Once again, coming in at the end of the episode to remind you all about Hey Mission Andy's Remembering project. We are well underway for season two into the home stretch of episodes now. Here is a little clip from this week where we hear some behind the scenes happenings on
Starting point is 00:44:59 the Caravan of Courage in Island. 2010, you and I got in the caravan and drove from the bottom of Ireland in Cork, pop the Cork. Pop the Cork. Yeah, you caught. Got a borderline sexy massage before we got it. We got very confused by that.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Well, we were confused for a moment and then when you exactly what was going on and then it just became more good to try and get out of it. We had was, security guard. Yes, so he goes, what do you want to do? It's like, we've just been in a really long fight. Can we, we're going to go for a massage. We were always hunting for massage.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Yes. We were always acting like we were a performance athlete. Like, we were just always needing massages on the caravan. So he, indeed, to look it up and walk as to this place, sat outside guard against. But it was slippery. Wasn't it the massage?
Starting point is 00:45:42 Yes, there was, there was a lot of baby oil. And no pressure. And no pressure, and then we went, I suspect we know what this is. So, I'll be honest with you. I'm not getting this anyway. I'm especially not getting it with Andy next door. I'm especially not getting it with, I'm not going to make it my first one of these.
Starting point is 00:45:59 We've, we've was guarding, now. It's kind of the front. This is my sexy massage guard. Go and listen to that now. We will catch you next week for the main pod as well as the remembering project every Monday and season one is all there for you to binge as well. See you next time, guys.
