Hey mates, welcome into the little dum-dum club for another week.
Thank you for joining us.
My name is Tommy Dasolo.
Sitting opposite me, the other half of the show, Carl Chandler.
G'day dickhead.
Hey, a couple of days late on this one.
We're live.
We're live.
You know, we like our live episodes, you know,
when we go to different locations in front of audiences.
This isn't in front of an audience, but it's in a very different location today,
live from Luke McGregor's burgled house, I presume.
And he's not on the show either, which makes this extra interesting.
We should note that this episode is a couple of days late in being recorded
and apologies for that.
But, you know, we haven't – in the past we've been late
and we've had, you know, a good volume of people kind of going,
where the fuck's the episode?
This week not so much, which says to me that people have either started
to kind of, you know, abide by the contract of a podcast being free
and it's okay or people have just lost interest and no one noticed.
To be fair, your phone number isn't out there in the internet.
So I've had plenty of messages.
Great.
If you're missing attention, I can certainly put your number out there
and you can get the direct calls like I've been getting.
Well, I'm an only child so I got plenty of attention growing up.
It's not something I've ever been in need of.
And well, I really wasn't in need of this attention either.
This attention was thrust upon me.
So how many texts would you say you've gotten?
I think half a dozen.
Half a dozen?
So six?
Yeah.
Yeah, in a way.
You're right.
Why wouldn't you just say six?
You're an only child.
You got all the education from your family.
Just showing off that you know the phrase half a dozen.
Just say six.
That's a common thing.
And what's been the most aggressive?
Have they been sort of just queering where it is or have there been people, you know, angry?
Oh, I saw someone at a gig last night that went, where's the podcast?
Where is it?
Now, hang on.
Are you counting that in the half dozen?
No, no, no.
I'm not.
That's a separate one.
Okay.
So that's one.
That's a twelfth of a dozen people last night.
So you've done four ticks.
A twelfth of a dozen people last night a
12th of a dozen people last night okay thank you good a baker's a one-eighth of a baker's dozen
uh hey let's introduce our guest for the day first of all uh you know him from problems on
the abc please welcome back into the little dum-dum club david quirk it's good to be here
yeah for those who remember problems.
It's been quiet ever since.
How's life going, boys?
Yeah, it's good. We've had some laughs.
We've already had some pre-laugh.
Sorry, he's just laughing.
We do have a little warm-up session.
When we do a podcast, we do have a bit of a talk and a laugh before we start.
Here we go.
How the bread is made.
Let people know what happens before the podcast.
Yeah, guys. start and here we go how the bread is made let people know what happens before the podcast yeah guys if if only if only we let you in to see the funniest bits which is the first 10 minutes
hello my name is david copperfield would you like to see inside this hat
also joining us on the show live from his own apartment that he's just moved into
luke mcgregor thank you sorry it's uh really messy it is really so this is the Sorry, it's really messy. It is. See, this is the thing.
It is so messy in here.
And I know you've just moved in here, but you talk about having OCD all the time.
It is bullshit.
This place is...
There's not chicken bones everywhere.
It's just clump.
It's not far off.
It's weird that these things aren't still in boxes.
I've unpacked.
Just haven't put them away yet.
You had a how to play guitar book
in your sink
like
that's not even messiness
that's just
intentional insanity
because I have to say
I rang the doorbell
and you sort of
you sort of
leant over the balcony
and said
it's really messy
and I went
well he's got OCD
so it's probably like
there's just one
sock on the ground
in the corner of the bedroom
but he wasn't
he wasn't whistling Dixie
was he
no it's bad it looks like it's on purpose it looks the corner of the bedroom. He wasn't whistling Dixie, was he? No, it's bad.
It looks like it's on purpose.
It looks like you're the guy
that works on set of a movie
and you're trying to make it
look like it had been burgled.
You've spread every item
in the house
out over every square.
That's a good...
It's been stolen.
But it's like you've spread it...
So it's like there's
a boomerang down there.
It looks like burglars broke in
and then ran out of time
to steal anything.
They're just...
They're just scoping the joints.
Weirdly, you pointed at boomerangs.
I was like, God, there is a boomerang.
There is a boomerang.
It's right next to a frisbee, which is next to a soccer ball.
There's some coherence to the things he's got.
Are we in the games room at the moment?
Is that what this is?
The entertainment quarter of the house.
And then in the midst of all this mess, just some awards that you've won.
Just casually sitting on
the kitchen sink for us to see what we've got.
They were the first things I unpacked.
Just so the burglars are impressed when they
get in here. Now we should, the reason that we're doing
this here is because you're waiting on a fridge
to be delivered today. Yeah, that could come at any time.
Which I quite like because this is the day that the iPhone
6 has come out so there's people lining
up around the block for the new iPhone and meanwhile
It was today. Yeah, you're waiting on a bit of the block for the new iPhone. And meanwhile... It was today.
Yeah, you're waiting on a bit of new Fisher and Paykel gear.
And that is going to be a sweet through line through this episode, I think.
Just waiting for that fridge.
It's got a massive screen.
If we get to the end of this hour and there is no refrigerated machine here... Let's not stop the podcast.
Let's stop the podcast as soon as the fridge comes.
So if the fridge takes a while, then...
No, I say we let it roll and chat to the gentleman.
I'm a bit worried they're not...
Do you think they'll be here by now?
What time did they say?
From nine till six.
Did they promise to be here
before the podcast?
Nine till three.
Nine till three, I think.
Nine till three.
So what are we now?
We're, oh, we're ten past two.
Oh.
So it's, oh, this is a,
this window is narrowly closing down.
What am I free?
I want some food.
I haven't eaten today.
Oh, yeah.
So how long have you been in here for?
About two, three days, I guess.
Two days.
With no way of refrigerating food?
No.
You've just been eating awards.
I don't know.
Did you see?
Boomerangs.
You send the boomerang down to Macca's and hope that they catch it in the air.
It's really close.
Yeah, I know.
You've been eating at Macca's. I that they catch it midair. Have you seen how close? It's really close. Yeah, I know. It's close to Macca's.
You've been to Macca's.
I noticed.
So I've been having that a bit.
But I'll get there.
You guys can help.
That's why I have the podcast here so you can help straight after. This should be a reality show, Luke McGrew's reality show,
where you have to use what you've got in this house to get food without buying it.
And that's your boomerang.
You have to hunt your prey in Brunswick.
That's good.
You can play.
There's several guitars in here. You have to hunt your prey in Brunswick. That's good. You can play several guitars in here.
You could serenade someone out the window.
And if you don't know how to play it,
you can always get the guide out of the sink and learn how to play it.
That's right.
That's good.
Let me ask you.
You've got two guitars that I can see.
How good are you at playing guitar?
Can you actually play?
I used to be in a band when I was little.
Not little.
You were little.
When I was like… Were you in the band when I was little. Not little. When I was like... You were little. When I was like...
Were you in the Tin Lids?
Yeah.
Hanson.
Were you in the Muppet Babies band?
Yeah.
When I was at...
When I was like 17 till 20...
Oh, here we go.
Here we go.
The phone started ringing.
Fridgewatch 2014.
But where have you put the phone?
G'day, mate. How are phone? G'day, mate.
He's gone with the fridge guy.
We're doing a podcast.
Doing the Dum Dum Club at the moment.
The fridge guy needs to know this.
I don't think this is the fridge guy.
I don't know if this will make it in.
It's a bloody good podcast.
It's a bloody good podcast.
I like that you guys have come to the talent, haven't you?
Under any circumstance.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter if you can't be home.
It doesn't matter if there's a fridge being delivered.
Can we have you on the podcast?
Absolutely.
I think we should keep the podcast going while the fridge turns up.
We've set it up.
You can either edit this out or just double it in length later.
I think it's that strong.
McGregor's left his house now,
so I think I just heard him get in my car and drive away.
This was all... Let's take some of his stuff.
How is he going to notice if anything's taken?
I hope this is...
I'm going to be furious if this isn't the fridge.
Should we quickly talk about things that...
Let's be ruthless
now he's not in here. Yeah, right. On what else do
we see? We've already gone through some of the funny things.
Oh yeah, let's close to his stuff. He had
something really, there's a lot of DVDs with him on it.
He's got a lot of DVDs, I mean he's not, he hasn't
it doesn't seem like he's been preparing at all for the inevitable
downfall of DVD and Blu-ray technology.
No, he's really cutting heaps of DVDs.
A lot of other people have gone digital. I mean
if this was me, if I was moving and I had this many DVDs,
I'd probably get rid of them.
That's right.
I'd take them to Dixon's or something.
I find it interesting that I said there's no boxes,
which is obviously he's unpacked them, but it's strewn about.
Yeah, it's comically strewn.
I don't use the word strewn often.
Yeah, comically so.
Do you think he's done it so we could just riff on it so well?
For people wondering about how things are going for Luke McGregor,
he's currently able
to afford both
a PlayStation 3
and an Xbox 360.
He's one of those guys
that's rocking
both of the consoles,
doesn't want to have
to make the choice
between any of the
sclooses on either system.
He's got the new school
both forms of entertainment
as well as the old school
both forms of entertainment,
the Frisbee
and the Boomerang.
So he updated
quite a while ago.
The PlayStation Zero aka the Frisbee. He reallyomerang. So he updated quite a while ago.
The PlayStation Zero, a.k.a. the Frisbee.
He really does mix business with pleasure, don't you know?
Who was on the phone, Luke?
Peter Hilliard.
What?
Why didn't you put him on it?
How? With the phone?
No.
If we'd known it had been something other than the fridge delivery,
we would have made you hang up for sure.
Sorry about that.
Is Peter Hellyer bringing you a fridge?
He is.
Is he one of the good guys?
Sorry about that.
Sorry.
On that good guys thing.
Just for you to see how the podcast was going.
You know the theme song
The good guys
Yes
The beach boys
The beach boys thing they've used
I saw a band at Meredith
An American band at the end of last year
And they covered that song in their set
Which I'm sure for them they think
Hey this is a cool thing
We're doing this
Well they sung the good guys
Yeah
The
No the good
Good vibrations Yeah Right No the good Good vibrations
Yeah
Right
Yeah
Which I'm sure they think
Is a cool thing
But for here it's like
Oh that's the fucking
For anyone young enough
It just seems like
They're singing a song
Off an app
My friend Ted
I don't agree
I'm with Quirk
I don't agree with that
What is it
It was also used
On something else
What other Beach Boys song
Wouldn't it be nice If it's been sold to Cadbury?
It was Cadbury, wasn't it?
No, you know what?
I'm completely wrong.
I've gotten the song wrong.
It was Taking Care of Business, which is Officeworks.
Sounds a lot like a Beach Boys song, doesn't it?
Taking care of business.
Taking care of staples.
That's still a great song, though.
It's a great song, but I just find that interesting when a band chooses to cover it in another country
Not knowing that it's on an ad
And it's sort of like
Oh this is just like we're watching the ad
Guys that's the Bunnings theme
What do they change the lyrics to for Officeworks?
Just nothing, they just use the song
Just taking care of business
That's Buckman Turner Overdrive isn't it?
Is it?
I thought you would know that
No I did not know that Of all people David Buckman Buckman Turner Overdrive Isn't it? I thought you would know that No I did not know that
Of all people David Buckman
Buckman
Yeah
Buckman
Or Backman
Yeah yeah
Lovely stuff
Lovely music review we've just
Got into here
On the little Dumb Elm Club
I'm just still rattled
From the whole fridge thing
From before to be honest
Oh it's caused a real rift
It's coming and then
We'll crack a bottle of wine there
Was Hellier saying I wouldn't mind coming over for a drink And you going Not yet buddy Not yet pal honest? It's caused a real rift. It's coming and then we'll crack a bottle of wine there.
Was Hellier saying I
wouldn't mind
coming over for
a drink and
you going not
yet buddy.
Not yet pal.
Come over in
an hour.
We've got to
move the guitar
book out of the
sink first.
Well we had
speaking of
liquid what a
sweet segue.
Yesterday I
went and had
lunch with a
couple of
friends of the
show including
David Quirk
who's present
right at the
moment.
Ben, no not Ben Lomas.
No, we get to mix up with Harley Breen sometimes.
Harley Breen.
Same stature.
Yeah.
Harley Breen.
Kids.
We had lunch.
I don't know if that's married.
Sorry?
Nothing.
I'm just thinking out loud.
We had lunch.
We had lunch.
We had a good time, didn't we?
We did.
It was nice.
It was nice.
Oh, God, I see where this is going to go.
So then we left.
And as we're talking and whatever, one great point that David Quirk made was a little point
of conversation.
He's been swimming.
He's been telling me how much he's been enjoying swimming, going to the public pool and swimming
lately.
I've never done that in my life and it's new to me.
Yeah, good, right?
I grew up swimming in rivers.
So I find it very boring doing laps.
It's good to have you here tonight, Tarzan.
Rivers?
Is it dangerous?
Rivers?
You can immerse yourself in a body of water.
Yeah, rivers.
You can swim in rivers.
I grew up in the countryside like Tarzan.
Insert jokes about country people now.
And anyway, I can't swim very well
But I've been swimming
And somewhere along the way I said
Yeah they call
It's a 50 metre pool
Right yeah
So this is the point
Now
You said you've been swimming in this pool
And you said
Now I've got problems with this place
It's weird
Because it says it's a 50 metre pool
But it's not 50 metres
And we're like
What are you talking about?
And you said
Well I think it's like
It doesn't look 50 metres
It's much shorter It's not 50 metres So And we're like what are you talking about? And you said well I think it's much shorter, it's not
50 metres so they must
this pool, I think
what it is is it's a 25 metre pool
and they just called it a 50 metre pool
because if you swim to one end and you swim
back, that's 50 metres.
It could be a thousand metre pool with that length.
That's right.
I don't call myself a 12 foot person
because if you double it, that's what I am. If you get. Exactly. Like, I don't call myself a 12-foot person because if you double it,
that's what I am.
If you get to my head and then go back down to my feet
and then go back up to my head again.
It should be known that I hadn't thought this through
or said it out loud to anyone until this moment.
No, no, no, because this went for a long time.
Because I'm thinking they're not going to put a 25-meter pool.
It doesn't have the same ring to it.
It's like you're allowed to double whatever you want
because it's ringless without doubling it.
It depends how far you swim.
It'll eventually be a 50 metre.
I've been trying to sell my six centre sofa for ages.
Depends how small these people are, right?
We're laughing at this, right?
But this is a real thing coming out of David Quirk's mouth yesterday.
So he's telling us that and we're going, what are you talking about?
And how quickly are you chiming in?
Are you instantly on him or are you kind of letting it
unwind and letting him tie his own?
Because it's that thing where there's, it's like this environment
here where there's a few of you and you don't want to
let it go because someone else is going to jump in
and get the good meat off the bones.
I was getting a good serving but I thought I'm right.
I'm right, like it's clearly not
50 metres long. Yeah, so we're going like this
at him for like 10 minutes or so.
It ends with him going – Someone says ring them.
I'm going to sort this out.
Gets on the phone to the pool.
Gets on the phone to the pool and goes, hey, you know that 50 metre pool?
The phone won't go each morning.
A phone to the pool I swim in each morning.
I call them up all of a sudden.
1-800-SWIM.
Yeah, they disconnect you to your nearest one.
Your nearest body of water.
So if it's a river, there's like a payphone next to the river
and someone picks it up and goes,
G'day, the river.
Yeah, he has to make an STD call to the river, though, from here.
I'll give you an STD.
Chlorine's good for that.
He rings the pool and says,
hey, you know that 50 metre pool you've got?
How long is it really?
Like it's some conspiracy.
Like it's 7-Eleven JFK in the Fitzroy Public Pool.
Are you a journalist?
I called them up and I said, hi, your pool,
it's a 50 metre pool, isn't it?
And they said, yes.
Because there's signs.
I know it's a 50 metre pool, but I'm just unsure about it.
And they said, that's right.
I said, how do you measure it?
What do we think to be unsure about, though? No, it was a waste I said, how do you measure it? What do we think to be unsure about, though?
No, it was a waste of time.
How do you measure it?
End to end.
Is that right?
And she goes, that's right.
And I said, and you're telling me that's 50 metres, end to end.
And she said, yes.
I said, oh, I said, good boy.
And I thought that still didn't satisfy me, did it?
No, no.
Well, it didn't.
So we walked away.
We went, right, let's see.
This just quickly, this doesn't end with you going
to a bunnings, getting a tape measure, and
going down to the pool. I'm going to be
really disappointed. You're skipping too far ahead.
And how did that theme song go? Did that tape measure house?
So, we
walked along and he... Measuring the pool
every day.
Wouldn't it be
nice for pools to be measured?
That's funny.
So, we're walking away.
We're trying to go to the next pub and he's like,
no, we've got to go to the pool.
We've got to sort this out. And we're like,
I reckon it's sorted out enough.
It's called a 50 metre pool.
You rang the pool, asked if the
50 metre pool Was 50 metres long
I reckon it's sorted already
So I said
No no no
I said we're so close
And then Harley
I said you guys
Have got nothing to do
He goes
I've got so little to do
And I still don't want
To walk down to the pool
And I said
I understand that
But just come down
Just come
He's like
He's trying to put money on it
He's trying to bet us money
Even though the pool people
Whose one job
Is to be in front of that pool
All day Have told us as managers No no you've got to come down So we went down He's trying to bet us money Even though the pool people Whose one job Is to be in front of that pool all day
Have told us as managers
No no you've got to come down
So we went down
We went down to this pool
To the Fitzroy pool
That's right
Yeah Fitzroy pool
We get there
You meant to pay to get in
Yeah well no
The first bit is
We get there
There's a giant wall
In front of the pool
And so
From the outside
No well not from the inside
We didn't get there
And I'd look at the pool
From the inside At the wall From the inside of the pool no, well, not from the inside. We didn't get there and I'd look at the pool from the –
at the wall from the inside of the pool.
But we get to the outside and it's this big brick wall
and so he goes, oh, well, I reckon the pool starts about here
and ends about there.
So what do you reckon?
So now we're guesstimating a made-up pool.
He's just pointing at bricks and going, I reckon that's where a pool is
and I reckon that's where a pool is. Guesstimate isn't a real word. Yeah, it is. It's just pointing at bricks and going, I reckon that's where a pool is. And I reckon that's where a pool is.
Guestimate isn't a real word. Yeah, it is. It's not.
Unless they put it in the dictionary recently.
It's not a real word. Guestimate? Guestimate
you said. Anyway, that's fine.
Moving on.
I think he's going crazy.
It's not a real word.
What it is, is you put two words
together and it makes it that.
Much like putting two 25 metre laps together to together to make a 50-metre pool.
That's right.
You see the grand irony of what you tried to do.
We're going to have to take this out of the little Oxford Dictionary Club podcast.
So do you want to just tell them how this ended?
So you're trying to measure a pool.
Again, we could have stayed at the pub and measured it
because we weren't looking at a pool.
You're trying to make us estimate a pool that's not there.
So then we walk around and go, the only way to do this properly is to go inside the pool.
And Quirk, you're imagining yourself, you're sort of thinking that you're going to be like,
you know, the guy who sort of tried to write out Bernie Madoff early days and no one believed
him.
And then he comes crumbling down.
It's like 10 years time.
There's going to be this big scandal.
The bloody Fitzroy public pool, they've been claiming for decades to have a 50 metre pool. Literally
decades. They've been getting away with it
and you were trying to speak out and no one
believed you. Do you reckon he'll get a
flotation device through his window with a note
saying leave it alone?
No, he'll get a pool pony's head
in his bed. Let it go.
You're not welcome here
So we go inside
And it's like
It gets to the end
And you're like
We're going to have to
Just pay and get in there
So we walk inside
This pool going
This is insane
We walk in
You go up to the
The girl and say
I'm sorry
But can we just
Go inside your pool
Just to see
If your 50 metre pool
Is 50 metres
And it's not even a nice day yesterday.
So it's not like you could even just like have a swim while you're doing it.
She was genuinely confused.
It's safe to say.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
So then –
It is weird to go to a swimming pool that has a gym facility, yoga,
and use none of it.
Yeah.
Can we just have a look at your pool?
Yeah.
So we walk in and I can't deal with it anymore.
He's talking to the girl and I can't deal with it.
So I just go out to look at the pool like at the glass door
and then Quirk comes rushing by and goes,
we've got 30 seconds.
So then we've got 30 seconds to look at the pool.
So then we go out and look at the pool and go,
and you just go, oh yeah, I guess it's 50 metres.
And then Brandon Maloney just started doing that thing
where you walk out, the stride is each metre,
that kind of thing, roughly.
And he got partway up the pool and I said,
how many have you done?
He goes, 20.
So if that's 20 metres, I looked at the rest of the guys,
like, if he's already done 20, that's going to be a 50 metre pool.
It seemed impossible.
It's an optical illusion.
I'm going to sue the city of Fitzroy for confusing me.
If you visit Melbourne,
please come down to the Magic Eye pool in Fitzroy.
That pool has been the subject of nearly being closed down several times.
A lot of comedians, Dave O'Neill being one of them,
has done fundraisers to keep it open. That was about
20 years ago, wasn't it? Yeah. So now if you want to have...
I'll offer myself on the line-up if you want to
do a benefit to get it shut down.
I'm happy to help.
Did Dave O'Neill get paid
in five metres off pool? Is that why
maybe it's shorter now?
And then we walk out
and then all these fully grown clothed
men just walk back out past the woman who's very bewildered
and it's just like, sorry, have you met Rain Man before?
We just had to show him the pool.
And it's not busy, is it?
It's like it's the middle of the day.
There's like an old lady doing some stretches.
That's right.
I thought it was quite good.
Admittedly, I did think I was right
Which makes no sense to me now
But I also did it
From a point of view of just brotherhood
And just idiots
Sounds like a fun joke
I'm prepared to be the butt of the joke obviously
Not really
So you had this much trouble with a pool
That's in a fixed space
How did you go about measuring that river
That you used to swim in?
Maybe that's what it is.
Maybe it's like, maybe it is the Tarzan thing. Maybe
it is like, you know how people
they find those lost civilisations sometimes
and they've never seen... You know when people find those
lost civilisations sometimes, yes. Something we've
all been, something we've all been to. You know, they try
and throw spears at the helicopter to take a photo.
That's kind
of how I am now that I'm in the city,
you know.
Why are there straight lines around this water?
So you just try and swim on everything.
Is this like the water gods must be crazy?
Is that what was happening yesterday? Pretty much.
I'm too raw
and I'm just not ready for these
straight lines. You're one of these savages
from Africa that comes out and says,
why is there a person inside that talking box?
So are you going to be able to go back to the pool now?
I was there this morning.
Oh, okay.
But weirdly that was still ringing in my ears, this 50 metre thing.
So today I did about five laps and I was like, wow, that's 500 metres.
I still can't count obviously but I was like –
Take your phone and get one of those how far have I walked apps
and then just reset it and walk from one side to the other.
That'll give you the…
I think Maloney proved to me that it was going to be a 50-metre pool.
So it sounds like there's still a little bit of doubt in it.
Well, that's what I like.
I like there's still doubt.
You're still not 100% convinced.
So now you think it might be like, what, 40 metres?
Well, that came up, didn't it?
One of the other pools.
I can't believe we forgot that point.
Just richer and richer.
And at one stage we talked about it being 45 metres as well,
so it was quite a conversation.
How did I think it was 25 metres?
I'm twice as wrong.
Someone's phone is ringing.
So that was their story yesterday, guys.
How do you – because you don't see many things in life that are 25 metres.
I know.
Look, look, I know this.
That's the thing.
That was the thing that intrigued me, you going there and going,
let's prove this once and for all.
And we're standing there going, how are we proving anything?
We're just looking at a pool.
Yeah, it is interesting.
What this really highlights for me is how dull the conversation at the lunch must have been
Before this came up
I don't think it was dull
How willing you were to leave and go to the pool
I've never seen someone so passionate about the length of a pool
It sucked me in
You need to know
That's right, I was dogged about it
It was strange
It's like
Because you sang with the butt of the dog
It was like I was terminally ill
And it was my last wish
Was to prove this wrong.
You guys, the Make-A-Wish Foundation,
please shrink the Fitzroy pool down to 25 metres.
What were you saying, Luke?
You said you were the butt of the joke, but it sounds like you were the leader.
Were you going to go to the pub and then you convinced everyone to go to the pool instead?
It was like I was exposing myself as a true idiot really.
Most people would just keep that to themselves.
They wouldn't podcast about how wrong they are.
But yeah, I wanted to sort of show the guys a good time basically.
But it's that thing.
Once you hit a certain point, you can't back out and you know deep down that you're probably going to be wrong.
But you think if there's a shred of hope that you can that you're probably going to be wrong but you think that if there's a
shred of hope that you can get out
of it and you know not be wrong
you've just got to commit.
That's exactly what it was but even I
having that told to me now I know how dumb I must sound
because I'm thinking it's 25
metres so if I thought it was
it just didn't look 50 and it was
48 metres you'd kind of understand
right? But I'm just so warped.
My perception of length is apparently…
I can't wait until this fridge gets here and we can debate the depth of the fridge.
And the height.
And the breadth.
And the temperature.
The temperature.
That is a problem because I'm getting a washing machine as well.
Did you see how small that bathroom is?
A 25-metre washing machine?
A 25-metre washing machine.
It might be just a pool.
At the moment, do you think this house is one foot by one foot?
It's like the TARDIS.
Depth perception quirk.
Yeah, so that was…
So you go and you swim laps?
Is that what you're saying?
Well, if you want the truth, there's one lane…
No, no, no.
Make something up about the pool.
I walk it. No, no, no. Make something up about the pool. I walk it.
No, I walk on it.
There's a called aqua play.
There's a fast lane, a medium lane, slow lane.
There's two of those each.
And then there's just one where they've made two lanes,
which is just they call it aqua play.
No lap swimming allowed.
And that is where I swim my laps.
So that is just complete anarchy.
People having sex.
People killing each other.
I have sex in it.
Then I swim laps.
Because I go there sometimes to swim laps and I get very stressed out about what lane.
Because I don't know how fast.
Who knows how fast they are at swimming.
Can you get kicked out of the fast lane if you're not going fast enough?
I guess it's just like someone smashes into you.
That's my great fear is that someone's just – I get a head –
just someone's head goes up my date as I'm swimming a lap
and that's how you find out you've got a getup.
They don't realise they're still swimming and you're like flailing around.
Is there anyone policing that?
There's lifeguards.
I assume it's just self-police.
Like if you crash into someone
Or if you get crashed into
I'd assume that you're
You have to know that you're in the wrong spot
I do feel like a sort of
An out of touch rebel in there though
Because I don't use the lockers
Like I always bring my stuff out to the pool
Like a weirdo
And you know what I mean
Or take your pants off
Yeah I strip down on the side of the pool
Really?
Yeah
Not naked Where's your phone, yeah. Not naked.
Where's your phone and stuff?
Not naked.
As a matter of fact, that's my next point.
I've never been naked once in that pool or the change rooms
and I am surprised.
You've never been naked in the pool?
Well, good.
I've never been naked.
That's what you're supposed to do.
You're letting the aqua play lines again.
Anything goes.
Anything goes.
Lord of the Flies.
It's aqua play, Flies It's Aqua Play
It's like Sim City
In that one
You can just build
Your new civilisation
Aqua Play
Not Aqua Business
You can start again
I can't believe how
I said this to you guys
Yesterday didn't I
And Harley had a point
That I can't believe
How men
Love to get nude
I'm not that guy
In change rooms
And Harley said
Unless you've got a big penis
Or old dudes love it And he's right It's older men Happy to go naked nude. I'm not that guy. In change rooms. And Harley said, unless you've got a big penis, or
old dudes love it. And he's right. It's older
men happy to go naked for long periods of time.
Longer than if you just dried yourself
and put your clothes on. They sort of seem to just
bask in it. I wonder if it's something that just clicks on in your
brain where you go, I'm not long for this world.
It's time to just, you know,
the time it takes to take your clothes into
a private change room and lock yourself in there.
Who cares anymore?
Time's ticking.
There is something about that.
I get embarrassed about it too, but I don't know why I find it embarrassing.
You're never going to see these people again and you're in a change room.
I don't know why it is embarrassing.
They would all recognise you though, Luke.
They'd be like, there's Luke McGregor.
There's Luke McGregor's penis.
It's awkward too.
It is a strange inbuilt thing that we have in our heads The amount of shame we have about something that every single
That we all have
Do you know what I mean?
It's so weird
But that is the thing
When people get older it's that thing of going
Because all you're doing is caring what other people think of you
By doing that
And when you get older you're like
If you were 70 and you're looking at some 20 year old
Would you really care what're like if you were 70 and you're looking at some 20 year old would you really care
what they thought of you?
Probably not.
When I was in
year 7
You can only wait
and find out.
When I was in year 7
and we went on a school camp
we all had to shower
in the nude
next to each other
with a teacher watching us.
Now
I don't reckon
that's happening anymore.
I don't reckon
that's allowed to go on
at my school these days.
When you say you had to
so was there someone saying,
you've still got your undies on, take them off?
Pretty much, yeah.
It was like, come on boys, in the shower, we're all doing this at once.
It's the teacher watching.
It's not like it's a dangerous activity that requires,
it's not like you need a lifeguard.
It's not like you're going to drown in the shower.
Yeah, it's less likely, isn't it?
These boys, if I leave them alone,
they're just going to start jacking each other off
and we can't have that on this school camp.
That's unsafe.
But it's one of those things where just at the time it was like,
you don't question it.
You go, well, an adult's telling me I've got to do this,
so I guess I just do it.
And then looking back on it now, it's like, that's bad.
Was it the same teacher always saying they'll do the shift
or was it different teachers?
No, it was just the same.
It was like, so it was a school camp and we just had the one teacher there
for the whole time. And then you just go, so it was a school camp and we just had the one teacher there for the whole time.
And then he'd just go, alright, hit the showers and then
they'd just follow you. Yeah, but looking at it now
it's like, I guess for him it's like as
bad as well. It's like, you know, he's
like, ah, fucking great. I've got to look at a whole
bunch of 14-year-old
boys in the nude in a row
all day, every day. What a great job I've
signed myself up for. But who would have policed
that? Someone above him and sort of
you know, come up with that as like, well,
part of your job. Yeah, you're right. If I was that teacher, I'd just go,
boys, you're just not showering for the week. Just go home
stinking. Or I might turn my back
or just... I'll bring a book.
What's the policing of, like,
get to the end of the year and it's
like, well, he did really well in maths and English, but
on camp he didn't take his undies off, so he's going to have to
stay back another year.
That is a vital part of the curriculum.
I just can't give him a proper assessment
unless I can picture in my head what that dick looked like.
Was there an incident in the showers the year before?
Maybe it was.
Because without a teacher, it's Lord of the Flies.
It's the Aquaplay lane.
Hey, Luke, you've just come back from travelling heaps. Where have you been? You've been like heaps of Asia Flies. It's the Aquaplay. It's the Aquaplay line. Hey, Luke, you've just come back from travelling heaps.
Where have you been?
You've been like heaps of Asia, Edinburgh.
Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Hong Kong, then Glasgow, Edinburgh, London.
Those are the, yeah, those.
Kuala Lumpur was, I really liked it.
Was that Roadshow?
Yeah, yeah, Roadshow.
But every now and then there was just like a massive hole in the ground.
Like a...
What?
Like while he was chasing you or something and set a trap for you.
Like every now and then there was just a massive hole in the ground.
In Kuala Lumpur.
Yeah.
So you'd just be walking around and there'd be a bit of construction work
that hadn't been finished.
And they're just like, you know what, we'll just...
That'll be fine.
And then just a massive hole that leads into the sewer.
Oh, wow.
It was, I mean, not common.
They weren't everywhere.
But every now and then.
And how wide do you think those holes were?
I guarantee you this, I bet you didn't see a single roadrunner while you were there, did you?
No.
Yeah, there you go.
They've all been caught.
But it was, but it was, it was great.
But it was just, it just had, it was just stuff stuff like you're so used to having –
you're seeing cones everywhere or everything taped off.
Whereas there, there was nothing like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you couldn't look at your phone and walk along.
What I'm intrigued by is you being on tour there.
Like there was a couple of comics over there
and you guys were using Tinder in like Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know why it amazes me, but it does amaze me that it's,
you know, I think of it as like a dating thing with an eye to a long relationship.
But if you're in Kuala Lumpur or Singapore for two weeks.
It was weird because I've only ever had coffee date to start off with
and then, you know, two or three dates.
So I had one, I met So I had one date in Singapore.
Oh, yeah.
And it was just we met for lunch and then didn't see each other again after that.
I think I'm bad at it.
I don't know.
I know people use Tinder and pick up.
But I haven't had that success yet.
Carl, there wouldn't be many people that think the way you think about Tinder.
Right, okay.
I don't know.
Certainly the most men I speak to.
Just on there for a good time.
Yeah, I think so, absolutely.
It's just a good time.
Blokes, I think in particular.
Ladies probably less so, hopefully.
But yeah, I was on there once and apparently your profile never goes away.
I just sort of, I chatted to two people once, never met them.
You can delete your profile.
You can take it off completely.
Yeah, right.
I'd be interested to know how many people have had actual success with it.
Like actually ended up in a relationship.
Long term.
Yeah.
I'm sure people have had a fun night or whatever.
But people who are in a…
And also because it links you through your friends.
People who would not have found each other otherwise.
Do you know what I mean?
Like just through their friends.
I saw a lot of people I know when I was on there.
I've got some mates who are still together from meeting on OkCupid
and they've been in a relationship for maybe a year now I think.
Old school.
Old school.
What are they, 50?
So it can…
But Tinder…
It's hard because…
I mean we talk…
A lot of us talk about it in stand-up.
Because you've only got a face…
…and then you've just got to start chatting to each other.
And you've got no information about them.
You know that…
…oh yeah, so they drink alcohol because I can see them holding a margarita.
And it looks like they've been to a beach.
And that's all you know.
And then you've got to start chatting.
And so you just just seeing random stuff.
Usually, have you seen True Detective?
And then you've just got to start chatting.
Have you used that as an opener?
When I watched Blue Jasmine, I was copying and pasting what I thought of Blue Jasmine
because I thought it was a good film.
So you're like live tweeting it
But over Tinder
I just said
Hey just watch
Are you asking
At David and Margaret
Yeah
They're finished
They're quitting
They're on their last show
Yeah
Apologise
Yeah Blue Jasmine was
When I watched Blue Jasmine
I was texting people
Hey
Just saw Blue Jasmine
Great film
It was wittier than that
but that was pretty much the
crux of it
I noticed that the short time I tried
this Tinder thing
that the profile picture
like that a person might put up
a girl will have
several a shot of all their friends
sometimes up to four or five people and so you
can swipe and you go I wonder which one of those five it is.
And there'll just be, every photo will still be groups of people.
And have you noticed this?
Yeah.
So there's no.
You're really making this difficult.
You need an individual shot.
So you just have to either, I guess the only way you can do it is if you find all of them
attractive, swipe right.
Or take your, just get, just get.
I want all these women to be my girlfriend
Yes, it's a yes from me
Well that's the thing
Obviously it's easier
Well I would assume it's easier for girls than it is for guys
And I saw
I know I've never used Tinder but I saw a girl use it the other day
What do you mean you saw her?
Well she was doing it in front of me
Yeah
That's how I saw it You watched her like a teacher And again... What do you mean you saw her? Well, she was doing it in front of me. Yeah. Yeah.
You watched it.
That's how I saw it.
You watched it like a teacher.
Have any of you guys met...
I can't believe I've got to watch this girl use Tinder.
Have you ever met someone and dated someone who you met
just through a customer service situation?
Yes.
Yes?
Yeah.
Customer service?
As in?
Just like you, I don't know.
A waitress.
Like someone serving you at a restaurant
or someone serving you at a...
Someone was serving me in a brothel
and we got married.
We hit it off.
Let's get back to that though.
But what were you saying there, Carl?
I know.
I just watched a girl do it
and it was that thing where,
you know, what is it?
You swipe right or swipe left?
Left if you're not interested.
Swipe left is...
Swipe right is interested.
And I just watched her go, oh, I'll just have a go at this.
And she swapped right on like 20 in a row and they were all yeses.
Yeah.
Wow, what a world.
That's very.
What a world.
My friends who are girls who are on it, they get, it's just match after match.
Yeah.
Match after match.
And then it's, which is why if you get a match on Tinder,
you might not even get a – they might not even reply to you
just because they're getting so many messages.
I've been using this app recently that not many people are on,
so it's not as good as it could be, but it's called French Girls
and it's like you take a photo of yourself and upload it
and then people draw you.
And then you can also go on and look at and find all these people's selfies
and pick one to then do like a little drawing of on your phone. And then you hit yes. I can look at and find all these people's selfies and pick one to then do like a little drawing
of on your phone. And then you hit yes. I can see
why it's got that name. Yeah.
French girl. You know like from Titanic
like draw me like one of your French girls.
Oh okay. So it's so like.
I've never seen Titanic. And people on there
are brutal. Like because you
can look through and it's like if you're a little
bit fat people just fucking tee off.
Ah look at you.
You've got a big snout, you pig.
And I've put a couple on and I've been smashed a lot.
Are they just writing them instead of drawing you?
People are doing a lot of ones of me calling me a pedophile.
So there's like – so all of the ones that have drawn me have drawn me
and then little text going, where are some young boys I can find?
Or no, there's one where they've drawn my tongue coming out of my mouth
and then a little stick figure of a little boy bending over
and my tongue is like going up his ass and I'm going yum, yum, yum, yum.
And my girlfriend loves it because she just looks at it and goes,
they fucking got you good.
They got you good.
But yeah, and you look through the –
Congratulations on being the subject of an Archibald winning prize picture again, Tommy.
But you look – yeah, you look through the galleries and yeah, man,
there are some like, you know, girls that look like they're 14, 15
and, you know, a little bit on the heavier side and they've –
you know, God bless them, they've put their photo up,
they thought they were going to have a bit of fun
and they just get fucking desecrated.
It's like 500 likes.
It's savage.
It is really brutal.
Wild.
Luke, what were you saying about service industry, did you say?
I'll just have you ever met someone.
You know how you've had – maybe you've had some good banter with someone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're like, oh, it'd be nice to see them again.
I've never had the guts to actually go, all right, let's –
Yeah, when I was younger that was like my dream because I was like,
oh, this is how it had happened in the movies.
I met a girl once when I was maybe 19 or something and got talking to her
and she'd mentioned that she worked at a Safeway but she didn't say which one.
I think I've said this on the show before.
And then one day I just went, I was like, I'm going to go find her.
So I just like went around to like different Safeways
and tried to find if she was working.
Oh, that was, yeah, the shop girl.
So I had a thing in Maribor like it would have been a good thing to,
the prettiest girls always worked in either the hairdresser or the chemist.
So that would have been a great notch on the belt so to speak.
Yeah.
For some reason.
For some reason they, was that a thing in every town?
It felt like a real country town thing.
Hairdressers?
When you lived in the Amazon Tarzan, how did it work?
There were no shops.
No shops?
All the hot girls were in the river.
Yeah, river girls.
Just bathing nude.
Jane.
It was just one thing on Tinder, Jane.
She doesn't like me.
She swiped left was the last I heard from her.
So Luke
Have you got something
Have you
Have you had any success
With Shop Girls
No
I've
I've had
I
I
I remember when
When we were doing
Utopia
There was an
Extra
TV show Utopia
It's on ABC
Oh yeah sorry
Not when you and some people
Were trying to create
A utopia over your own
Yeah
You fenced yourself off from the rest of society.
Not to be confused with dystopia.
Just trying to find a girl to repopulate their perfect race.
But yeah, and there was a girl who had a…
I think she had one line where she had to say, I'm in marketing.
I think that was her line in the show.
Something like that.
And we got along well
And I thought
I'd be nice to
Catch up with her again
And
But I
For whatever reason
I didn't do it
I was
We were filming another scene
And then she left
Before I got to say goodbye
And so I thought
Oh
I really liked her
Maybe I should just ask for
Maybe I should just
Because I
I knew her name
Because she acted in the show
And then so
Did you just know her character name?
So you were looking that up? So then I Then I went The only way I could find her Was she acted in the show and then so I… Did you just know her character name? So you were looking that up?
So then I went to her.
The only way I could find her was to go on the website,
to go to her acting website or go to like… No, the real only way to find her is to get her written back into the show
and you guys totally get it on.
Lead a fan campaign on Twitter the night that episode's on.
But by the time I'd sort of got…
I'd found the website.
The only way to like, you know, leave her a message
if you had like a role for her or something.
Like one of those, you know how people have generic.
Contact form.
Yeah, contact form.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I'm like the only way I could do it is to get on this thing.
But I thought by this stage it's getting, it's too much now.
I can't casually ask for coffee.
Now I've done all this detective work so I just bailed on it.
I couldn't.
Oh.
Well, if she's listening.
Yeah.
Yes.
I want to bring up this.
I think this is something that is
your obsession with the pool kind of reminded me of this.
I was in Sydney a couple of weeks ago
and I was getting a taxi home from a gig
and it was raining at night
obviously and I'm just making
a bit of small talk with the taxi driver,
and we're talking about advertising or something for some reason,
and he goes, oh, have you heard this new thing that they're doing
where they're going to start advertising in the rain?
And I start laughing.
It was raining at the time.
And he goes, no, no, it's seriously.
They're going to allow billboards to still be there while it's raining.
Is that the concept?
And you look up and you're like, oh, look at that rain.
Oh, Coke.
This market share we're missing out on.
Do you know when people only look at the footpath when there's inclement weather?
But he said to me, so he goes, I'm like going, what?
And he goes, no, no, I swear this is true.
They're going to be doing this in Chicago.
They're starting it in Chicago because it rains a lot there.
What companies are going to be able to do is they're going to be able
to sort of put smells into the clouds so that then when it rains
that smell will come through in the rain.
So like McDonald's can put a French fry smell up in the clouds
and then when it rains you'll be like, oh, I could go some French fries.
Oh, really?
And I'm laughing going, what?
And he goes, I promise you, it's a video, look it up,
I promise you this is a real thing
and I'm like okay so I get
home I get back to where I'm staying and I
look it up on YouTube and
it is the most
obvious sketch that I've ever
seen so obviously
it was like by the onion or something
it was so obviously a comedy bit
did you hear about this guy that wanted to know
who was on first
I think it was on heraldsun.com you know the only thing. Did you hear about this guy that wanted to know who was on first?
I think it was on heraldsun.com.
You know, the only thing I don't like about this story is that I just realised I'm being equated to that cab driver.
Yes.
That's the only thing I don't like about the story.
It's quite good otherwise.
Because the shame was it was too late by that.
Like I'd gotten out of the cab and I'd realised it and I was like,
I've got to save this guy because he's just going to go around telling this
to everyone and Barrett making an idiot out of himself.
A little go-to conversation piece.
And it was an Uber thing and I'd already raided him and I was like,
I wish I could go back and give him two stars for being a fucking idiot
and trying to spread.
I wonder how successful that, because I think it's the thing where they have...
You know the marketing where they have someone
in a shop going...
Talking to someone else going, man, that
soup tastes real nice.
And someone... While someone's in the
soup aisle. What?
It's advertising, so it's...
It's sort of subliminal.
Like while you're in the place,
they're paying someone to stand there and join the party
They pay someone to go
Man I love that jumper
I've heard this is happening
It's a real thing
I haven't heard of that happening
And you're already in there
No but it doesn't matter
It's the same way advertising works isn't it
Yeah they pay people to be in the shop
Boy the little dum-dum club podcast is excellent
Is that working?
How do you get that job?
Why can't we have that job?
You just sit in Maccas and talk about how good Maccas is.
I'm positive that's a real thing.
They have people in the store and they talk about how good the products are.
Where did you see it?
You're already in the store.
There's a name for it.
No, but they talk about doing it in the street and stuff.
Like paid actors just walk past.
Isn't that horrific?
The people that pay to sell stuff to talk about brands and things.
I can't remember what it's called.
Yeah, it's like a branding kind of thing.
They might even do it on trains, you know?
You always don't need paid – because people crap on so much anyway.
Like the way you guys talk about McDonald's.
They should be bloody paying you.
Yes, you're absolutely correct.
Are we paying Quirk to say that?
Yeah, McDonald's.
Don't eat at McDonald's.
Don't eat at McDonald's. Don't eat at McDonald's.
We'll tidy that up in edit.
Don't eat at the great restaurant McDonald's.
You should be sponsored by chlorine for all the work that you did
for public pools the other day.
You should be sponsored by the metric system.
I'm real imperial, aren't I?
I'm an imperial fighter.
You should be sponsored by the clothing brand Rivers because of your heritage.
Keep going.
This is good refuge.
All right.
You should be employed by Fuckheads Company.
Shit.
And that's all we have time for.
So, Luke McGregor, did you have any luck with the ladies When you were overseas?
No
I
You were in Edinburgh
In London
Yeah I
There's no one in London
I checked into Rome for a little while
But I just turned it off
I really
I honestly didn't
It was a
What about people that come and see your show though Luke?
A lot of soul searching
A lot of A lot of Just getting and see your show though, Luke. A lot of soul searching. A lot of…
A lot of…
Just kidding.
Hotel room soul searching.
No.
No.
I thought…
No, the Australian accent…
No, not in London.
It's not in it anymore, is it?
Probably get more cred having an actual just British accent in London.
That's probably more exotic at this point.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was…
But no. No luck. It was all business probably more exotic at this point. Yeah. Yeah, it was. But no, no luck.
It was all business.
It was all showbiz.
Oh.
Sorry.
That's all we've got time for.
Oh, we just had a bit of off mic.
Off mic, I believe he was saying there's a girl in the house at the moment.
Is that what that is?
A wife and kids are in the cupboard.
Are you banging the fridge delivery guy?
Is that what's going on?
Are you about to give him 25 metres of McGregor?
50 if he goes twice.
Well, I do believe that is all the time we have for today
on the Little Dum Dum Club.
Luke and Dave, anything you guys would like to plug?
If anyone wants to help me clean up...
So you're just plugging that to us three, really?
If anyone wants a miscellaneous USB drive or Frisbee,
I'm giving them away.
You were throwing out a 50 cent coin before
because it had some dirt on it.
It was really dirty.
I fished it back out though,
didn't I?
And washed it.
Oh, did you?
And if anyone wants it,
it'll still be here.
Can I have these nunchucks?
Oh yeah,
you've got nunchucks here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's got to be
the most surprising item
in Luke McRee's house,
surely.
Hey,
Napoleon Dynamite
made them not cool anymore
when he said nunchuck skills.
I swear before that
they were cool. So did you get in on the nunchucks before Napoleon Dynamite came in? Yeah, I was back inunchuck skills. I swear before that they were cool.
So did you get in on the nunchucks before Napoleon Dynamite came in?
Yeah, I was.
They are cool.
And then you saw that scene and you were like, oh, they've ruined it.
80 bucks down the drain.
They've got official nunchucks.
They've got pictures of Bruce Lee on them.
So they're official.
Yeah, they're the real deal.
I went to a I went to a
martial arts store
two days ago
and
really
bought some
bought some shoes
to practice in
I just
I thought
I thought about
I want to start a
self defense
you think you know someone
then they drop the whole
martial arts angle on you
don't they
I used to do it
when I was a little kid
and I just thought it would be fun
to start it up again
I haven't been yet.
What would be your thing?
What's your favourite karate?
Wing Chun Kung Fu.
Wing Chun Kung Fu, really?
The real thing?
Apparently it's what Bruce Lee did.
It is, it is.
But anyway, I was talking about,
because they had all these weapons there,
and I'm just like, can I buy a,
can I just buy a bo staff?
Yeah.
Because it's just this massive staff that's bigger than you
and I'm like,
can I just buy,
and they go,
yeah,
50 bucks.
Are you going to kick start
this new thing
at Comedy Festival?
Like, you know,
everyone does a song
at the end of their show now.
You next year,
you just kick the shit
out of someone
in your audience.
That's a McGregor
merch next year.
Just a Luke McGregor sigh.
I got assaulted
by Luke McGregor.
I asked him about nunchucks and nunchucks you need a weapons license.
So I don't know.
These are not official.
I'm not allowed to have those.
They're toy.
I think they're like for illegal.
You've got to have a weapons license.
So how did you get these?
Just a friend got them for my birthday.
Just ordered them online.
I guess I don't check them that thoroughly.
Black market.
Hey, if he can't talk about what happened in London,
he bloody sure can't talk about those nunchucks.
I just love that they're just out, like, ready for use.
They're just sitting on your couch.
It's like, oh, well, I better get these out
because, you know, you never know when I'm going to need to...
Do a demonstration.
Yeah, you never know.
The fridge delivery guy might turn up
and then he pulls a mask off
and it's fucking Shredder himself.
Yeah, yeah. And you've got to take mask off and it's fucking Shredder himself.
And you've got to take him down.
He brings a two-star. Or Crang.
Rebop and Rocksteady are moving the fridge in.
Michael Bay needs a scene pick-up.
We didn't quite get it.
He brings over a two-star rating fridge and goes,
no, sir, not on my watch.
Maybe.
One of three.
That was one of the longest and most bizarre plugs
that's ever happened on the show.
Quirk? Mine, I've got nothing to say. Cool. that was one of the longest and most bizarre plugs that's ever happened on the show quirk
mine I got nothing
to say
nothing just
I'm eating
McDonald's
eating McDonald's
and if you have
time go to the
swimming pool in
North Fitzroy
and just see what
you think
bring a tape
measure to the
Fitzroy pool
I'd say trundle
wheel but yeah
oh okay
what's a trundle wheel?
You know, those wheels that people...
Yeah, you wheel them along.
You know, so click, click, click.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I use that pool frequently, and it is an excellent public pool, so shout out to the pool.
Why don't we try and podcast this live from there one day?
Seriously.
In the middle of summer, on that grass area.
We'll get a bunch of people in there.
That would be pretty great if we did that on the grass area in the middle of summer.
That's a cool idea, I think.
Yeah.
All right.
Okay, give it two or three months.
Let the weather warm up. If there is one way that we can prove the length of a pool, did that on the grass area. That's a cool idea, I think. All right. Give it two or three months. Let the weather warm up.
If there is one way that we can prove the length of a pool,
it is on an audio medium.
It's to podcast.
We should.
The Little Dumb Dumb Club pool party is an excellent idea.
Why don't we...
I'll bring them out.
You know what we can do?
We'll cast pods and rods.
That's...
We'll try and...
We can...
You know what we can do?
We can somehow fashion a little buggy for us and we can do it live on the little buggy
and we can move one metre per minute and see how long it takes us to get to the end of the pool.
It's a 15 minute podcast.
Oh man.
And yeah, 25 minutes, like A, quirks right and B, people don't have to listen to as much
of our shit as they normally do
so everyone wins.
I'm looking forward to this.
I look forward to consigning that
to the great barrel of ideas
that we've had on the podcast
and they've done nothing about it.
I'll keep on you.
Have you done a special theme-y one?
You did one.
We did it live from McDonald's.
The McDonald's one, yeah.
But have you done like a...
Like a what?
I don't know.
I'm just making an emotion with my hand. Sneaking into McDonald's. The McDonald's one, yeah. But if you've done like a... Like a what? I don't know. I'm just making an emotion
with my hand.
Sneaking into McDonald's
isn't good enough.
That wasn't good.
Oh, yeah,
because they didn't know
that we were in there.
Yeah.
So that's good.
And as a plug,
Luke McGraw,
you're on Utopia.
That's on at the moment.
Yes, we've got two left,
I think.
My big nunchuck scene's
coming up.
Oh, thank you.
You're right.
Oh, this is a prop. Oh, awesome. No, it is not. It's a no nunchuck scene's coming up. Oh, thank you. You're right. Oh, this is a prop.
Oh, awesome.
No, it is not.
It's a nunchuck scene, unfortunately.
But it will be when my space opera movie comes out.
We've got the live podcast happening in Perth on Sunday, November 2nd
at Rosie O'Grady's in Northbridge.
Tickets are on sale now.
LittleDumbDumbClub.com.
It's going to be huge.
And we're also doing our solo shows in the same ticket price.
That's it.
It's like a 4 p.m. till 7 p.m. or 7.30 p.m. show.
At the same time.
Perth Aquatic Centre.
Do you want to go to the podcast or the solo show?
Because they're on the same time.
Yeah, we sometimes do them all at the same time.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just a sweet mash-up that makes no sense.
A little time and space joke there.
And yes, Quikurated is at the Perth Sports and Aquatic Centre. Yeah, yeah, yeah. PSAC. a sweet mashup that makes no sense little time and space joke there and yes
Quikirad it is
at the Perth Sports
and Aquatic Centre
so yeah
peace
glad you caught that
a little treat
and you know
shout out if
I mean
this is very loose
and I haven't consulted
you Tommy about this
but I think
we should kick you
out of the show
no
the other idea
that I had was
even though it's a joke I am fine with that I had was I had two. Even though it's a joke
I am fine with that.
I had two ideas.
Do we have time?
Maybe we should be doing
another Melbourne podcast
and maybe another Sydney
podcast before the end
of the year.
Yeah, definitely.
Give us a yell
if you're into that.
That's happening
at the pool in Melbourne.
I'm telling you.
Yeah.
I'm making sure.
In like December maybe.
Early December.
Okay, well that's a good idea
in the summer.
So there'll be lots
of people there that will be very They'll be so distracted they won't even think about measuring the pool. It'll be such a good idea in the summer so people there'll be lots of people there that will be
they'll be so distracted
they won't even think about
measuring the pool
it'll be such a good time
why don't you do
like a thing where you say
you get
people who listen to the podcast
to send in
I bet you can't do it here
suggestions
and then try and get one of them
so try and get a really bad location
well you don't have to
you don't have to
take every suggestion
I like the idea of us doing a live podcast from the pool really bad location. Well, you don't have to take every suggestion.
I like the idea of us doing a live podcast
from the pool,
then paying to get
into the pool,
but then us immediately
after the door going,
oh, can we have
ten bucks as well?
Yeah, so people
paying double entry.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But that's fair.
I mean, if you go in there,
you pay to get in,
then you pay to get
an ice cream from the
canteen.
Yeah.
So you're paying
for the entertainment of the podcast.
Maybe we can have a dum-dum canteen.
We'll just do it in the change rooms.
Fully nude with my year 7 teacher watching us.
There we go.
Alright, let's wrap this up guys.
Thank you for joining us and thank you very much for listening
and we'll see you next time.
See you mates.
