A list-nuff production.
Activate your internet.
Cos the heymission and the podcast starts in 3, 2.
Sorry, still buffering.
1.
A hoi to me distal felings, hey.
I think you pardon?
Distal felings.
Yeah, felings.
Yes.
Yes.
A Hoi to me metacarpal, Jack.
Oh, I am in the foot, am I?
You're also in the hand.
Oh, yeah.
And the whimsical I chose is metatarsles.
Metatarsles in the foot, Jacko.
It's because, hey, you have injured your distal felings at the moment. And the ones that I chose is metatastles and the foot jacko.
It's because, hey, you have injured your distal balance
at the moment.
Yeah, that's the tip.
Sorry, fowlings.
Yes, I have injured the tip.
Just taking squash the tip.
Squash the tip.
Squash the tip of the thing,
got a metal brace on at the moment.
What did you do?
The top of the knuckles, the distal,
the middle is the intermediate.
And then there's another one to do there. Your distal is out of place. Youuckles are distilled. The middle is the intermediate. And then there's another one to the end there.
But your distilled is out of place.
You just strap distilled.
I squashed it between a hair of rockin' hard place, actually.
Like a kind of a while heavy ball and a piece of metal.
But how's this, Jacko?
Just a quick, if we can just quickly deviate.
So got a massive blood blister immediately started.
You could see it swelling up under the nails.
Well, when you do that,
you're giving me the middle finger.
I am giving you the finger.
Close an elaborate joke just to give you.
Junkhead.
Actually, nail polish.
No polish, and this was eight bucks at the camera's price.
This price, yeah.
Has his show.
It started swinging up to me,
this guy has never had to you guys.
Like it's such swelling up under there,
like incredible pain.
Anyone that's smashed their finger with a hammer or something,
if you've got the nail, would know this pain.
As the day wore on, excruciate, like, throbbing, can't,
focus on those yelping if it touched anything.
Then I go, I go to my, I've got to go,
I've got to do something about this.
This is killing me, I can't, I can't, I'm seeing stars.
And I was like, I think what you've got to do
because there's so much blood trapped behind the nail.
I think you've got to heat up a pin or needle and drain
and put it through the nail and went the blood out.
Like, did you go, did you go to the little call?
Right, so it goes, where have you got that from?
I go, I think I saw a dad do it.
I was gonna say my dad did it.
She goes, no, I don't want some nul-blake barbaric actions. Like, you'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm daddy, I don't like his, you know, because dad's got a few kind of pretty old school.
Many of.
Yes.
Like if we got gravel rash, we had to scrub it till it bleeds
because otherwise it couldn't.
So it didn't get infected.
Otherwise it might have dirt in the wooden still.
So she doesn't like that take on it.
Anyway, she's, I'm like, no, no, I think this is,
I'm looking for a safety pin or something
to start heating up over the stove.
Anyway, it comes back in and goes, yeah, no, it is what you meant to do.
Because she's good at this, something on TikTok.
As soon as the TikTok has done it,
so in our house, if someone in TikTok has done it,
it's like, that's how you have to, you know,
it's between cooking, like,
I know that you have to cook macaroni this way or whatever,
because TikTok has done it,
but if I suggest it, you're a mad man.
Anyway, you do, here's a fun month of people.
It was no blank TikTok. It was like, man, you're mad, man. Anyway, you do, here's a fun one for people. It was no blank TikTok.
It was like, man, just dad on the farm going,
you know, well, you count, but it's actually quite
got an anesthetic.
What you actually have to do is you get a paperclip
and you heat it up red hot.
Just touch it, don't push it, touch it on the nail.
It melts through the nail.
And then boom, out comes the blood.
Oh wow.
It's actually quite intense because you're like,
this thing is giving me so much pain.
Feels counterintuitive to put a red hot thing
on the hooker into a wound that has been hurting you all day.
But it is, I mean, obviously go and take talk
in YouTube and stuff.
Just go to the podcast.
No, no, no, no, go to the podcast.
Go to the podcast.
Go to the podcast. Look at the professionals,, go to the podcast. Go to the podcast.
Look at the professionals on TikTok and once they do it,
it'll be, that's, you'll feel safe.
Ahoy also to Yolanda from Sydney who use the very easy
to use system at hamishney.com.
Tell us what she's up to.
Ahoy, Hamish, Annie and Jackie Boy, my name's Yolanda
and I'm coming to you from Sydney long time listener.
And I just wanted to start the Sydney long time listener and I just wanted
to start the podcast with a little shout out. My boyfriend Yannick and friend Sophie have
recently started listening to the show all the way back at EP 1 so I just thought I'd
leave them a little Easter egg for when they finally get up to date if this voice memo ever
uploads to your website. Anyways, love the show boys, peace out.
Peace out. Peace Out.
Peace Out!
Peace Out, so it's from a while ago.
So you started uploading that a while ago when we were saying
Peace Out a while.
That's nice.
It's nice, a little easter egg for some,
and we do recommend people going back to episode one.
Yeah. Enjoy an order.
Enjoy an order.
Can we kick things off today?
Well, I know we're going to kick things off the special skill, because something very
special came to us on the show.
It's, we love a specific special skill.
It is one certainly classified.
Hey, Mishni and you, if you want to fill out the Valley of an important podcast, a
form, and we can learn a bit more about you and also get you in the show.
We love a dobbin' to Claire Dobdo, husband and in.
Love it.
I'm not a partner, sorry.
He said, look, he's got a,
and I hope he doesn't mind us saying this,
but he's got a bit of a receding hair line.
So he's at that stage in his life
where he's trialling different sorts of hats.
Yes, amazing.
He may be become a hat man.
Yeah.
And he wants to find his forever hat.
Yeah.
And that, I support the finding of a forever hat,
but if you are doing it due to thinning hair, my
worry is you can rush your decision.
Because you need to lock one in.
You're hoping to lock one in early.
As a thinning man, and as someone that's thinning myself, I'm not pursuing a forever hat,
I guess I'll just shave my head when the time comes.
Well, if I was, because the alternative to getting a forever hat is growing a very
big bead.
So if you've got a, if you're a boarding man big bead you're fine.
But if you've got no bead growing ability, you need to find a forever hat.
For a chase or forever.
My, because I speak as someone that could possibly entertain the idea of forever hat.
I imagine what you want to do is you want to put your forever hat on while you still got good coverage. So people don't see that's
why you're choosing a forever hat. And then and then behind the scenes the
hair goes. And then one day you take off, I go, you ball. Yeah, yeah. I just fell
in love with this hat. Well, I remember you did and it wasn't because of your
ball. Because you put it on with good coverage. But if you put it on after things get too late,
people will go, well, that's a panic hat.
And it's not a forever hat.
If you're putting on a hat native hair, that's a week.
That's a week, that's not a trip.
And that can be a forever hat,
although watch out for high winds.
And something happens to men that choose a hair hat,
where they choose their hair of a 25-year-old, even though
they clearly have the face of a 75-year-old.
One last thing on Wig's hem, the other thing I've found about Wig's for people who go
early is they forget to gray off their wig with their sideburns gray.
And it seems to be a clear, a quater line, where temptation is there, and oh,
because you're fighting two things,
graying and boring, and some of those don't wanna go gray,
and they wanna die.
And the black wig would be so tempting,
the efficiency of going on killing two birds
with one stone here would be so tempting
to keep deluding yourself to go,
I think I'm pulling it off,
because if I believe it, maybe the rest of the world believes it too.
Quite often we don't.
Okay, well, you know, he's the thing.
It's not nothing really to do with his own situation.
It's the hat situation.
His name is Ryan and he's found that as he's researching hats,
he's got a unique ability to determine whether someone
is wearing a fedora for the first time, or if they're a regular fedora wearer.
So he's claimed for years now to have 100% accuracy when judging this to go, that guy's
trying that hat.
That guy's looking for a forever hat.
And it's his first day versus, I think that guy's been wearing it for a long time.
He reckons he can claim the jury, not going to test him on this, but he reckons he can
claim the duration too of how long on this, but he reckons he can claim the duration to how long
They've been wearing a fedora. We just after regular or not regular fedora wearers. Yes
We've established the the experiment we're gonna do and Ryan joins us now Ryan a hoi maith a hoi blue
So I know you're on you're on hold for a lot of that and you probably couldn't hear it. We won't make you go back through it.
Quick question, have you decided on the Fedora as your forever hat?
I personally haven't.
I passed over the Fedora, but that's how I can cross my special shield.
Yep, gotcha.
Did you choose, have you said it on a forever hat?
So, Brieho.
It's probably like a process.
And at the moment, I've settled on a, um,
ponderoid dad hat.
Just like a five panel like a cap.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, nice.
Yeah.
He's into it, mate.
He's into it.
We, because we said, you know, if you are putting, if you're getting a forever hat
because you're like, okay, I prefer to wear a hat now with my hairs thinning,
you don't want to rush it. You don't want to rush it.
You don't want to commit to a top hat
would be a huge look to commit to for the rest of your life.
Capsule, I mean casual is probably a smart choice.
Yeah.
We're on the same wavelength.
We're pretty excited though.
We've got you on Zoom as well.
We're gonna play for you five different people
saying their name followed by the sentence
and I always wear a fedora. You say, you your special skill that you'll be able to tell us whether
that person does usually wear one or they're just wearing one for our game.
There's five of them. We need four out of five for you to get a coin. Is that fair?
Yeah, absolutely. It shouldn't be a problem.
Okay, and it'd be great if you are claiming they are or they are. I'd love to hear why.
Yeah, I'd love to hear what the master's looking for here.
Okay, let's jump into it.
Now, rise to your hats when he can't understand
if the hat usually won on this man is a fedora.
Fufufufu, fedora.
Does he wear fedoras?
The first person to throw at you is my girlfriend's dad Lee.
Hi, I'm Lee and I always wear a fedora.
That's a tough one.
Big inhale.
Yep. I mean, he was probably the biggest we've ever had.
He's the biggest we've ever had.
I'm the shiver.
Yeah.
That is a doozy of a bowl first delivery.
But how will you play it?
Does he always wear fedoras?
He comes to the Linda Fadoras
or is that the first time he's worn one?
I think that might not be the first time,
but he's not a regular fedora wearer.
Unfortunately, it's incorrect.
He regularly wears a Fedora.
Really?
Yeah.
I mean, I think he looks great in it.
Did you think he giving him some feedback?
Do you think it doesn't seem like he's out there enough
and doesn't have enough practice there?
No, it's definitely not the case.
Very good of man.
Poor definitely.
He wouldn't be the number one hat choice I'd go for him.
Yes, okay.
You're not dating his toy.
I, you don't need to be so tough.
But I, that's good.
No, there he is.
So you, what, what kind of a hat would you put on him?
That's a great question, I'm not really within the defined boundaries of my special skills.
He's not rather than the guessing hat.
Not my department, mate.
Not my department, but I it through the pork pies.
You're welcome.
I can still hear enough.
It's Ferdora or not.
I don't know.
You are one down, you'll need four in a row now.
Take the split at the coin.
The next person is Dassy.
All right, my name's Dassy and I always wear a Ferdora.
Hi, my name's Darcy and I always wear a fedora.
I'm going to say again, no. He's not a regular fedora wearer.
What makes you say that?
Oh no, fedora is normally, like, there is a process here.
And it's along the lines of whether they're a musician, yes or no, European woman, yes or no.
Not 100s detective.
It's a flow chart.
Absolutely, and if he doesn't fit any of those categories, he's in the like more subsection
of the bend diagram that I work in.
And I just don't think he's a regular doorweer.
Well, you've got it right.
Well done.
Yes, that's Darcy, the so much production fellow here watch out
holding up yeah okay are you ready for
number three yep this is David I'm David and I
often wear a fedora yep absolutely
bring it to the door where what made you
say that um just wear it with
confidence I guess yeah He's in the
age demographic that regularly
worth the doors and yeah, just
it's definitely his forever out.
He has got a bad news. Well, we know
Dave and that he's his forever hat
often seen and he's not a detective
but gosh, he dresses like what he's
done. He does. He does, doesn't he?
He does, yeah. Sometimes wears a waistcoat too.
Well, this is exciting at each his own.
Two of the four-nero required.
Check, check.
Let's go on to the next one. This is Matt.
Hi, I'm Matt. I'm always where I fit all the way.
The voice of a federal railroad.
You're asking me.
That is a tough one.
Why?
Ah.
He fits the A's demographic, the space chase,
and everything of the doorware, but I'm just getting a no.
Um.
Do you listen to your gutter?
Do you listen to the fly chat?
Great point.
Hey, I'll go with my gut gut and I'll say no to Matt.
Well done.
No, that is Matt.
He works in the office here.
Matt's definitely someone that could easily go into a fedora.
Like I can tell that it was his first time.
He's not a regular fedora where he definitely could go into the door.
Where he's a jolly photographer, but he's definitely going to the door wearing a
Well, he's a jolly a face, doesn't he? He's more of a Harrel Bishop, yeah, a young, young version, but like, you know, there's some good
chops there. I don't know who Harrel Bishop is, but sure.
Okay.
See, the neighbours finish this pretty quickly, and some people's mind.
I can't even direct you to the show anymore, it's over.
All right, final one, please. This is Ed Goodluck.
Hi, my name's Ed, and I always wear a fedora.
So he's the complete opposite of Matt.
No features that would say he should be wearing fedora.
He could have had, he'd change, but the fedora. I want to say yes to the Fadorah.
So if you see a thick head of hair coming out underneath, as a man who is potentially choosing
a Fadorah to cover a thinning scalp, you look at that and go, why would you?
Why would you cover that up?
Yeah, unless you're in a band or something I
Mean I don't think he's a regular to door where I just
No, he's not my only one thing. You want to say yes?
I do want to say yes because I mean it's very hard over zoom with a picture or a short video because you know me seeing like a few strides and you can kind of get a general vibe of what
they like and that's a lot of the process.
It's alright but if it was easy everyone would do it, man.
You're in the, you're in the league of your own.
So what are you saying?
He's not a regular fedora where he's got it!
He's got it!
He's got it! He's got it!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Come back right!
We thought you were dead and buried!
You've got yourself a coin?
Well done!
That's huge.
And yeah, absolutely go around and tell as many people as possible.
And can I just say, Ryan, this is one of our favorite schools that's come across the
desk and it's always great when a personal favorite skill gets up and achieves coin.
Yeah. So well done, mate. Congrats, buddy. I'm glad, hey, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
will just like to say quickly that I didn't nominate, I did not choose to be, I test on this.
I'm, I'll definitely dobed in. Yeah. And I'm, I'm glad we were able to prove my partner wrong because she has doubted me for years.
I'm glad we can finally say that I have this special talent. You do. You do. And that's the way we actually chose people getting dubbed in.
Because obviously it takes all sense of arrogance out of it.
You're walking around with this brilliant skill and it took someone else to put your hand up for you.
It's so true, isn't it. It's such a difference between, you know, Superman going, oh, you know, look at me, I can
do this.
I can fly to the top of that building.
I can rescue that person.
I can stop a new key weapon versus someone going, going, go on, Clark, why don't you do
that thing where you're changing to Superman?
No, I don't want to.
No, I want to see that.
No, I think they were.
I go, have a go.
Exactly.
It'd be a lot more endearing that way.
I enjoy the comparison to Superman.
Thanks boys.
Guys, we plan a band.
I think it's fair to say we're still in a band.
So glad you're bringing this up.
Yes.
We do.
I tell people I have our band.
Yeah, cool.
I don't say the moment we play, because we haven't gig for you or two.
That's true.
We're having some time off,
but we're called cool boys and the frontman.
We've got, we don't,
the band our band doesn't have a chart
or a band constitution,
but they're unwritten rules.
It's a many.
They're unwritten rules.
Well, sometimes you have to contract some things.
We haven't got to contracting stage.
We're a band, you see.
Do bands have constitutions?
Well, I think I understand.
You can't imagine the red hot chili peppers here.
That's unconstitutional.
I don't think we should play that game.
That's true, but what I'm saying is, is,
take it to band court and see if the supreme court
of bands up all the constitution.
Unwritten rules we all abide by.
Yeah.
That's why I'm a band by a constitution.
An ethos.
An ethos, yes.
And, you know, for instance, points might be for us,
if someone makes a mistake, tell them
as loud as possible, as quickly as possible.
Because I suppose in the constitution is,
one of your amendments would absolutely
be keep all the attention off you.
I keep pretty cool attention off yourself at all times.
One of the best ways to do that is to highlight highlight others flaws. Yeah. Outfits are more important than
the music. I would say it's probably... Oh, basically all the stuff they wouldn't teach you
with classical music class. Yeah. We only play one song gigs. Yes, don't overload yourself.
And a secret song. But we don't talk. Sometimes you play a secret song.
We only play pre-arranged events where we can guarantee the crowd, big bit.
That takes the pressure.
Upgrading a promoter or anything like that.
And the pressure of an anxiety of where the people rock up.
That's it.
They're already there.
If we're looking to replace a member of the band, we would tell each other.
Yeah, big time.
In fact, in fact.
I mean, is this what this is going?
Well, I just end similar to some other contracts, if someone put their hand up to join the band,
yeah, we would have to tell the group, wouldn't we?
We would have to vote on the group.
Well, we would have to vote, and there's nothing to know what normally happens with the band.
Who's leaving?
Who are you trying to kick out of the band?
I'm not trying to kick out anyone.
It's a good idea.
You're pretending to read a constitution that we never wrote.
I mean, we've often threatened to kick people out of the bank,
but again, that's really just to speak to a manment one,
which is to keep attention off yourself.
Yes.
Well, this only comes by.
Someone has...
Someone once in.
Right.
Well, there's a rotating frontman.
They can have them as rotating.
Yeah, they're so good.
If they're so good, they could try it as the frontman.
So we've had this person on the show before,
Russell Halcroft.
He's a breakfast show in Melbourne.
And he's on the good side.
Possibly shunned me.
He didn't shun me.
Yeah, didn't shun you.
Shun by Russ.
Unshun by Russ. Now Russ, didn't send me. Yeah, didn't you? Sun by Russ. Unsun by Russ.
Now Russ, deep love for Russ.
I got a WhatsApp video for him this morning,
just him playing drums.
So I can open up.
I know he's sun is in a band.
He suns in a band.
So I can only assume it's an audition piece.
Wow.
Yeah, because I was gonna say I couldn't imagine Russ
as a frontman.
Yeah, we do.
But I could imagine. I was like, I don't imagine Russ as a frontman Yeah, we do but I could imagine
So as soon as we see a video of someone playing an instrument we check out the members out So I didn't even know what you need to kick you out
Jack if I see a video of someone playing guitar you're in big trouble
If I see a video of someone playing guitar, you're in big trouble. No, you've seen them.
He's not using you, sorry.
If someone sends you a video of them playing guitar.
I've been playing guitar.
He doesn't mention the band at all.
He doesn't mention anything.
It has sent me a video of him playing drums.
Yep.
And that's why I'm a huge fan.
I will send you one now.
And now I'm back here.
What?
He was unsolicited.
What was he?
This small backstory is there.
There we go. He asked me whether I had a spare drum kit because
he wanted one because he had an upcoming gig.
And so I lent him...
Russ is in the band.
Russ is in the band.
And so I lent him my drum kit analog, not electronics, that one problem with him, because
we know it's been asked to have an instrument that's not even your instrument in the band.
So I lent him the drum kit.
You have a drum kit?
Yeah.
And I'm saying it very nonchalantly.
I have out in the band room at my parent's house.
And so Russell went around and got dead.
You have a drum kit too, Jack, if you bother getting it back from more of the event.
Well, don't, the guy off Instagram and actually the longer we leave it, the worse it gets
because I forgot his name.
I know it starts with him.
What happened?
Jack's beating my drum kid off me for a dollar a month.
He's not paying it.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying.
He's not paying. He's not paying. He's not paying. He's not paying. He's not paying. Yeah, so Jackson was clogging up our spare room.
Remember, Jack was accusing me that I only,
I gave him such favorable deal.
So it was as a trick to get him to store the drums,
which I've fiercely reviewed.
No, that's.
I just enjoy other men, all women enjoying the drums.
Anyway, Jackson a reiss, he's a terrible client.
He then sub leased it to someone else on Instagram.
And now he's got this guy's name.
Yes, he came and picked it up off Instagram.
He was very trustworthy.
His name started at M like a Martin or Morgan.
He was like, it was Liam.
Oh, you could have ended with an M.
He'll know who he is though.
He's not paying me.
He was meant to but I never figured it out with him.
We don't know.
You certainly can't, Jason.
I know.
You know what my client is.
He came to my house and he was only 18.
And he's like, thanks for doing this
because I don't have a lot of money.
I don't have a job.
So I was like, I can't really ask for, you know,
BSB details and do a direct deposit every month.
So I just sort of let him have it.
Now I forgot who he was.
Wow.
What those?
Did you take a photo of his license or anything?
No.
Okay.
No, Jack.
Like I said, $2,000 drum kit.
Yeah.
He'll reach out to the show.
I'm he, he seemed like a trustworthy guy.
Well, just because you didn't care about them, doesn't mean you just give him away.
The nearest guy that meanders past and gives you a sob story about how he cut a afforded dollar a month.
Jack that's appalling. But the other thing as our band that we're left with is our drummer doesn't have a drum kit.
And the Russian drummer.
The Russian Russell does.
Yeah, but he doesn't have electronic drums.
And we don't have analog drums.
I wanted to play you what he sent me this week and I've listened to his drumming.
Is that him? You know that. You know that. You know that. You know that. I'll be honest with you, like, that was mostly guitar and it sounded like some tambourine.
It's pretty straightforward stuff.
I reckon you've got in there home.
But of course I've got in the jack.
You've seen me on stage.
There was one part of it that I thought was interesting.
It was in time.
Oh, so he's one of these guys, is he?
That's one of these drivers.
Oh, I do the numbers, I do the counting.
I'm in time, a real square, a real nerd,
a real driving nerd.
Might as well as a robot do it, then.
No, you can't believe me, I'm the bus.
That's what you might, it's lovable.
I mean, you've taken all the
emotion out of it, all the human spirit. You're right, Jack. Very robotic drumming. Okay,
Russell's out. Ain't back in. Well, I think he was auditioning. But it was an interesting
coup. I'm not.
Hey, as we rock it towards the end of the year, we should point out that last week we started
a raffle giveaway in Prompt 2, which is you've got a 1 in a 1000 chance to win your incinerator
back.
I can't wait.
And Jack, you've got a 1 in a 1000 chance to win the Lou that I just got removed.
It's pretty new to Lou from...
It's not a great thing.
I'll point for toilet.
From the beach house.
And I thank you for the gesture,
but yeah, we don't need it.
But people, people want to know.
And I'd like to say for my prize,
if you do win the Insincereator,
I haven't done a poo online.
Oh!
Ever.
And you've done a poo on the pool.
No, not only. Not just a lower mound of poos. I mean, ever. And he's trying to give you something.
He's done quite a few poos on. But not as many as some might have done on their version
of the item. True.
Hamishney.com, the forms up there now, if you want to enter the raffle to get win, either
the insincurator or the toilet.
And the other thing we've got to chat about is, of course,
the emergency slide party is back on.
We haven't actually talked to anyone from Rex for a while.
Can we just say for people listening to this episode,
we're words 2022, you might think you're back listening
to an old episode, hey, we're listening.
Why we're listening to the slide party episodes again? Yep, we know the end of
the year is near. It's like, you know, November 22, we get it. That's coming up. However,
it's back on. I know people might have missed episodes. It faded out, it faded out,
and has come roaring back. It's a raw back. Yeah, you're right, Andrew. We haven't spoken
to anyone from Rex, who are the airline that are gonna lend us the plane
Yes, our point of contact. He was lots of fun back of the day was Mark. He is
So joining him is he's good mate. Apolline from Rex Jeff. Jeff, for what are you good? I said guys house things
I had a mark finish up. Do you have a party or we had a we had a we could have a plane party
we considered it but we had a flight deck party and said I think you really enjoyed that
and we were sorry to see you go and did you get the vibe from him that he was sort of
hanging around to see if this event would ever happen and in the end it just got too much
and look he absolutely was I knew that we're at the flight deck party he said to me Jeff
I got a hand about it to you. I've been waiting for Hey Mission Andy they've taken forever
get this clear Jeff I mean we are two men we're ready I think believe it was I believe it was the
freeing up of a biggie yeah of a plane that became the issue.
Well, I was probably actually covered, but yes, I hear you.
Yes, yes.
Jeff, okay, couple of quick questions.
Will you be our pilot on the day?
Look, I'm certainly hoping to say, guys, I know that you and I are talking about, I feel
like we're besties.
I think that I should be your pilot.
I can be trusted.
Yeah, I agree.
Now, how much of a, how much of a, when they're doing the rosters and stuff,
that they yell out what planes they've got this week
and you go, I'll take that one or, yeah.
You know, if they go, hey, we've got a, you know,
we've got a light aircraft that's going, you know, regional.
Can grow Ireland and we've also got a biggie.
We've got a biggie that's fine sitting in the middle
and just like, okay, I'll take the biggie if no one else wants it.
Is that, how does it work?
Look, if only that was the case,
like you sort of walked through,
you take the keys out of the bowl
and then you go up on the plane.
But that doesn't quite happen like that.
But we only have a fly of the biggies.
So you either fly the jets
or you fly the turbo-pops on the regional routes.
Yeah.
And that's a course to make sure nice and safe for you guys
puts on our only need to remember
how to fly one airplane.
Yes, so your biggie's only. Biggie's only. Did you have only in the interview, but you're only in the interview, but you're only in the interview, but you're only in the interview, but you're only in the
interview, but you're only in the
interview, but you're only in the

jump out at some point.
This question, with a taxing, is the pilot doing anything?
This looks like someone's telling them out the front.
Well, look, that's probably a closely guarded secret, but yes, in this case for the
party, we will be towed down to the hanger.
We won't actually be taxing the aircraft.
So, Haynes could be the pilot?
I don't think Casza,
our Australian regulator, would approve
him to be the pilot for that.
Okay, I'll do it.
Have you had the other side?
You would have.
First and most is not what you want in the cockpit.
But, I mean, I assume there's things up there
that you still can't, you know,
no handbrake,
things like that.
Like, there's still buttons to push even though you haven't turned the keys on.
Yes, yes, quite correct.
So even when the aircraft is moving, there's always, we've got to maintain a high level
of safety.
So it is important that we have qualified people sitting in the front.
That's right.
Just to get to see how I noticed that stuff.
So maybe I am a good candidate.
Well, it's very true. I haven't a great guy. Jeff, do you see how I noticed that stuff? So maybe I am a good candidate. Oh, my God.
This is very true.
I am a person so far that will be a closer to the end of this conversation to see how
much you took on board.
Jeff, have you ever used an emergency slide?
Well, thank goodness no, but of course we are trained.
So all the Rex crew are trained to defend, to send down the slide.
But never use one and anger.
Of course, I don't think you or any of your listeners would be keen to use one and anger either, of course.
No, no, no, we just want the thrill of it. Is it exciting going down the slide?
Look, it is exciting. So from, we'll be jumping out of the, the floor heights,
around about three meters. So you'll be jumping down. The slides designed to take about 60
people per minute. We won't be doing that
Of course, we're gonna make sure that you all your listeners have a great time on board
So we're doing it a nice controlled luxury and yeah, it's over it's over quite quickly
It's lean forward grab your knees and before you know you're at the bottom. How is that?
60 people a minute is that one per second or two?
Yeah, one per second. Yeah, one per second.
Yeah, right. So you really pump it in. It's like a baby gun.
Yeah.
How are your ankles at the end of it, Jeff?
My ankles are great.
Yeah, go go.
Do you do any of that?
I know how to make sure to put my toes up.
Tows up. Okay.
Do you think that's the trick?
I think the toes up is the trick.
Okay. We'll yell that before we go down.
I think that's all the questions we have at this stage.
This is so exciting.
Jeff, we hope that you're our pilot.
We'll gather a bit more info as we go,
but we just wanted to confirm with someone from Rex Airlines
because we've announced that we're not having anyone
on from Rex on the show.
So thank you very much for joining us, bud.
Absolutely, please look forward to talking to you soon.
See you.
Oh, can't wait, mate.
Eyes up, toes up.
[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪
[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪
Andy, I must bring this to the team's attention.
Right, yeah.
Because I'm excited because it involves chocolate.
And I've done research.
And I think there's a big case to answer here.
It's here. It's a pretty chocolate company.
Okay. This was brought to my attention by Matt.
Just quickly, it's not Toborane, is it?
It's not Toborane. Good, because Jack's still scared of Toborane.
No, I'm not scared of it. I just said many times.
I can't believe how much. I can't believe how much of a nerve we touched.
The roof of the mouth nerve.
So many people writing it about Toblerone going,
oh yes, I've got the same problem, very sharp.
And somebody even gets in in a diagram
of the triangle across section of a Toblerone
with suggestions on where to eat it,
how to bite the tips.
Do I see Toblerone probably don't know
that a lot of people are avoiding their chocolate bar
because it's so pointy.
If they were around, like a limp all say,
they'd probably sell a lot more toplorites.
You toplorone rounds for Puzzies.
Don't wanna go.
For mouthwint.
Mmm.
Soft, soft edges for those that can't hack the point of the 90-materon.
Inspired.
I'm not the only one. That's all I'll say.
I'm not the only one. I have a lot of you out there, Jack,
which blew me away. Just people, people, I do agree.
They're totally right. This will be killing to the wrong.
And I bet you there's two camps in it, to the right.
Yeah, one camp.
Are you like new management going, listen guys,
I don't know if you're out there chatting
to the people on the street. Yeah.
Some find it too sharp.
You're like, what are you talking about?
I mean, it's tooth versus chocolate,
which you would be winning every time.
There would be a camp in a top of your own,
I'm pushing for rounder edges.
And the traditionalists in there would be holding firm.
I'm with the traditionalists.
Yes, it's not great for the bottom line,
but I do think there's a badge of honor
of your mouth being a top of your head.
I can't wait for top of your own being a toad. Can't wait for Toblerone.
Can you hack it?
They're there.
You're right.
If they do, Toblerones for whims.
They're for toads.
It will be a sad day for the purists.
Yeah, but again, the bottom line talks doesn't.
Well, they'll probably be someone from help and safety going,
because they have to shut these pointy ones down and get the domes in.
Someone missed their mouth and got their eye.
And now they're a pirate.
It's not total, right now.
This comes just to be quite at the end.
So you're unaware of time.
I know we're tired for time, so really the refs.
Yep, ref's keeping you close on us, only three minutes of injury time left,
and he will not hesitate to blow the whistle.
It's a lot closer to your heart, and oh.
Oh, no.
Cabry.
Oh.
Cabry, the only chocolate company in my mind.
So I'm demin' it.
This is...
LAUGHTER
No, don't mind a Nestle, like a kick-cat.
You do like a kick-cat.
So yeah, just the big four for you, but apart from that, not interested.
Matt has sent in an amazing, amazing scoop, I reckon.
He works in a server and he said, look, I'm pretty aware of the new flavors of chocolate
bars when they come out because they usually go to servers first.
I didn't know that, but it makes sense. You do see a premium display or economic
service. There was a new variation of a chocolate bar that was really called my attention from
Andy's favorite, Cabri. The bar in question is a new variation of the flake. Now let's
pause here for a second. I know we're tired on time, but let's pause here for a second.
My wife and I have recently had some flakes at our house.
We enjoy a bit of chocolate each night on the couch.
It's kept in the bowl.
We have a salad bowl that has various blocks
and bits and pieces in it.
She bought some flakes at the supermarket
because she was like, I love flakes growing up.
I'm in a real flake mood.
Okay, okay.
She opens the flake up, takes a bite of it, goes,
oh, so crumbly.
So crumbly.
It goes everywhere.
And I go, honey, read the packet.
And I'm reading for the bag of year,
the crumbliest cabridarian chocolate.
Like, that's their selling point.
It's crumbly.
I question if that's the greatest selling point.
It's very low in my hierarchy of cabrid chocolates
because it's messy.
And who is chasing a crumbly a chocolate?
Delicious taste, but yeah.
Or the chocolate taste.
Terrible taste.
So much every chocolate.
Jack I reckon they might get it at the same time using the family box.
And he's right, twirl is like a flake with barrier around the toes.
It literally, literally twirl is that.
Yeah, this is good. Let's move this discussion that? This is good.
Let's move this discussion here.
This works well.
12 is the flag with the wrapping.
Yes.
So they obviously make the flag first, send it over to the 12 station.
They case it.
Now they would argue if you watch the ad for 12,
that it actually is a twirling to create the bubbles.
Right.
It's not just the stuffed flag, but it's a very similar taste and texture.
Well, I see.
But in the sake of a chocolate case.
I seem to remember, and I seem to remember.
Now, that's interesting.
Let's keep, let's remember you said that, but it's a different construction system.
Right?
I seem to remember, and that correct me from wrong, but you've eaten a
lot of twirls in your time. I thought on the pack of twirls, it used to say delicious
flake and with the logo of flake, delicious cabriflake encased in Cabri Chocolate.
That rings a bell. Didn't it say that? I think when the first winter market, it was
somewhere about to go, you don't be spooked by this. Just, it's okay.
We're not total wrong.
We're not going to hurt you.
It crumbles.
It won't stab you.
You're safe with us.
Yeah, it was just, it was an endorsement.
It's like when you're here at the end of a podcast,
go, if you like this, you might.
Yeah, yeah, both like this.
Maybe you like another podcast that it is to time limits.
Okay. Here's where we're going with this. Maybe you like another podcast that it is to time limits.
Okay, here's where we're going with this.
Hey, why are you talking about flakes?
Why are you talking about flakes?
I think I'm nervous, I know where you're going.
There was a new variant of the flake out.
Do you know what it is?
Well, no, but I'm assuming that it's just a flake
with a chocolate casing.
It's the flake luxury.
And it is exactly that Andy.
It is flake, cased in chocolate, which is 12, which is 12.
Absolutely.
And does it say it can't advertise being the most crumbly,
the crumbiest of all time?
No, and it can't also say in brackets, PS, this is a 12.
Because they're also pushing hard to tell you that there's a new flake hat.
It's luxurious.
Now, first of all, let's take the word luxury to one side.
I don't know how wrapping something in chocolate makes it more luxurious.
If you knew the crumbling was a problem, why you advocate like, why'd you make a crumbling
chocolate in the first place?
Yes.
What they've done is they've wrapped it in chocolate and pretending it's a new bar. Has this ever happened in the chocolate kingdom
that a company is selling exactly the same product
under two banners?
I don't know, I don't think so.
I mean, it is mind-blowing.
So to do some research, we're adding nuts.
You're like nuts.
It's like, yeah, but it'd be like if Mars bar was also making
like new-garts sticks.
Yeah.
And they're like, now new gut stick luxury.
It's a new gut stick with caramel wrapped in chocolate.
It's a Mars Bar.
Oh, thanks to Mars.
Oh, she can't already make it.
An easier analogy would be if Crabri makes crunchy,
but they also sell honeycomb logs, which are new crunchies.
Yes, yes.
And now they sell honeycomb log luxury wrapped in chocolate.
Well, hang on a sec, you've made in crunchy.
We know what you're doing.
I don't know if anyone's got a promotion or what's going on.
The cabbary factory.
Here's where it gets interesting, Andy.
So, flake luxury is a twirl.
Twirl is a flake luxury.
They're the same thing.
So, go, right, is one a rip off or is one good value?
Yeah.
I go to the servo and I bought a 12 and a cabri
twin path for lake luxury. Right. Because I can, from what you're holding up, I think the
flake luxury comes as a single. You're at 12. You get two sticks. Yeah.
12 is 39 grams. Okay, I've chuckled it in there. A flake luxury is 45 grams.
Wow. But a flake luxury is 45 grams. Wow.
But a flake luxury is 50 cents more expensive.
Flake luxury of 350 at the server,
$12, $3 at the server.
So I divided it.
Hang on, there's 39 grams in two sticks of squirrel.
Yep, and 45 in one much longer single bar.
Right.
So what is the price per gram of chocolate here? Mind blowingly,
once 39 grams, 145 grams, they both work out to 7.69 cents per gram. What's 7.7?
What's 7.7? 17.69. Pretty body. So I look at the flake. Okay. That's that's the same product basically being sold for the same price.
You then go over the flake.
That's only $2.50.
So you might think, okay, pretty good value.
But the flake doesn't have the wrapping around it.
And it's crumbly.
Most of it's here.
That's 30 grams.
$2.50.
This is a whopping 8.3 cents.
It's more expensive.
So hey, the original flake cents. It's more expensive. So hey, the original flame,
original flame is more expensive.
Less for your money.
Less is more luxury than the flake luxury.
So that throws that throws a further cat amongst the pigeons.
How's this?
This is my final bomb Michelle.
This is my closing argument because as I said,
got to keep it tight today.
If you look here at the end of the flake luxury, it gives you a cutaway of what's inside. Okay. Look on the twirl packet,
they do the same thing. They do the cutaway. Sorry, the twirl is empty. You ate twirl.
Pictures still there, Jack, we're just talking about the pictures. Right? They both do the cutaway.
just still there, Jack, we're just talking about the pictures. Right?
They both threw the cutaway.
It's the same photo.
You look at the swirl pattern and they're the fingerprint of the chocolate on the inside
is exactly the same pattern.
They know.
They know Andy.
They've literally put the picture from the twirl packet on the pack of the flake luxury.
Now what I wanted to ask you to do is if you had a finger of the twel there, could you might want to then bite the plate luxury?
And do it side by side, can you tell by side comparison?
Yeah, well, I mean, I ate the plate 12, I'd be recently. So how long
remember?
Barely an hour.
You're on.
Obviously, remember, let me buy this.
No, anybody me buy this.
It's not quite the experiment.
Yeah, so signed.
Oh, what about...
That's what I remember.
Glad you split the twirl in the merry bag
and just kept it in the front.
You would hate.
No, I would need this. Next thing comes into my mouth.
Yeah.
Check it.
Good for you, dear friend.
you
