This episode of The Little Dumb Dumb Club is brought to you by comedian Nick Cody.
I'm a huge fan of the comedy of Nick Cody.
Carl, the only other person in this room right now, what do you think about Nick Cody?
Big fan. I've bought tickets to his shows already.
Despite them both being in states I don't live in.
Yes? What states are those?
The state of comedy!
He has got two big shows.
Comedy. No. big shows. Comedy.
No, but really.
Comedy, but seriously.
He has got two big shows.
He's got one coming up in Adelaide in a week's time if you're hearing this hot off the press.
He's got a solo show going on in Adelaide in the Rhino Room
at 7 o'clock on Wednesday, October the 5th.
That is but 24 hours after we're in Adelaide.
What a coincidence, Tommy Dasolo.
It is a weird coincidence.
I wonder if he's doing anything else while he's in Adelaide.
I wonder if he's getting there early or not.
We should check in with him.
Anyway, so big old one-hour stand-up special,
as they call them these days, Tommy.
Yes.
I think Ronnie Chang started this,
where he's calling them the comedy special,
where it's just like
It's a solo show
It's your comedy festival show
Yeah
People used to use the term solo show exclusively
Then Ronnie Chang started calling it a special
And people would mock him for it
And now everyone just does it themselves
Yeah
Yeah
So go and see Nick Cody's comedy special
In Adelaide
October the 5th on a Wednesday night
Adelaide
I bet you've already sold it out
Because you love pre-selling tickets.
You fucking love it.
It's all you do.
And he put the ticket link up ages ago,
so you've had heaps of time.
So, look, go and see that.
It's a great chance for you guys in Adelaide
to have something to fucking do it all, let's be honest.
And then what's he got?
November, he's doing a big taping at the...
Enmore Theatre in Sydney, Thursday, the 17th of November.
Sydney, you guys know how to buy your tickets.
You've got the internet up there, don't you?
So you get onto it.
Thursday, 17th of October.
Nick Cody's comedy special.
And I'm just learning of this right now.
But he's actually calling it Nick Cody What Of It.
I cannot believe this.
I'm literally...
I went to his website.
Again, a good plug for nickcody.com. Actually, go to that site website. Again, a good plug for nickcody.com.
Actually, go to that site.
It's not there.
It's nickcody.com.au.
But if you go to nickcody.com.
There's a treat for you.
It is tickling me endlessly to think of people that are going there
to try and buy tickets to what of it and going to nickcody.com instead.
You know what someone needs to do?
His walkout music for that gig, for his special.
Because if you use someone else's track on your DVD or whatever,
you've got to pay them licence.
It's a very costly affair.
So you're much better off getting your own track made.
He's got to get someone to do a dubstep remix of the
Ronnie Chang impression of Nick Cody.
Oh, really?
What of it?
Imagine that, just walking out to that.
There's people there who probably haven't seen him before.
Just a very confusing thing.
There'd be maybe eight people in the audience who know what that is.
I like the idea of the narrator, the voiceover, whatever, going.
The narrator?
Well, I don't know.
The guy.
Little golden Cody.
Yeah, yeah.
The guy going, you know, there's a full Inmore Theatre
and there's a voiceover booming Inmore Theatre.
Thanks for coming tonight.
Guys, please give a big round of applause for the big festival show, Nick Cody.
What have I...
The big festival show.
I don't know.
Have you ever been to a live event?
I don't know.
The narrator.
I love comedy.
All right.
So keep narrating this ad.
What else have we got?
So he's got those two shows on sale.
NickCody.com.au.
We've been plugging the wrong website too much.
We need to remind people where they can actually get the tickets.
Hey, why not have both?
Hey, what of it?
What of it?
Comedy.
So go and do that.
Do a big road trip between Adelaide and Sydney
and see the same show twice for some reason.
Why not do that?
Narrate the URL of nickcody.com.au into your web browser and get some tickets.
Hey, don't worry about the Enmore Theatre.
How about just Moore Theatre?
You know, go to both.
What about that?
What of that?
What of that?
I like the Enmore Theatre.
You know what I like better?
The N-word theatre.
I like the N-word theatre.
You know what I like better?
The N-word theatre.
I love the theatre of N-words.
N-word obviously meaning Nick Coney.
That's the N-word.
That's the N-word. meaning Nick Cody. That's the N-word. That's the N-word.
Nick Cody.
Please, please, you're not allowed to say Nick Cody.
You're not allowed to use that N-word, please.
Only Nick can use that word.
It's a tribute.
It's a tribute to Nick Cody. Oh, God.
Please, Tommy, stop coughing.
Oh, wow.
It's weird that it's us laughing so hard
and we're the only two people in this room.
Okay, so that's it.
Go check out Nick Cody.
As we said before...
Fresh off the back of appearing on television's Conan.
Oh, yeah.
Conan O'Brien.
So we are doing a show in Adelaide as well.
This is your last warning, Adelaide, you motherfuckers.
Yes.
Pick up the fucking pace.
Hey, you know what, Adelaide?
People have got the tickets.
They're going to be in the runner room.
You know what?
That buys you safety because I'm going to bash every fucking other one of you over there.
I'm going to come over to Adelaide.
If you don't have a ticket, I'm going to kick your little
hiney. So that's a fucking
threat that I'll follow through on.
So this is coming up. This is
Tuesday. A mere six days away.
Us doing stand-up. Tuesday,
October
the 4th. Yes.
It's a big-ass show. It's stand-up.
It's Tommy's stand-up. It's It's my stand up It's the live podcast recording
It is three
Awesome guests coming over with us
Flying
We are flying three
Let's call them international guests
They've all performed overseas
They've all been on TV
They're fucking great
Well if you're in the audience
And you weren't born in this country
Then to you
They're international guests
Yeah Look you know what Australia's this country. Yeah. Then to you, they're international guests.
Yeah.
Look, you know what?
Australia's a country.
They're international guests.
So where's that happening?
The Rhino Room?
The Rhino Room.
Hey, I like the Rhino Room.
You know what I like even more?
Yes.
The Ry-N-word Room.
Fuck.
So that is 7 o'clock.
If you're listening to this hot off the press, it is next week.
Yes.
Get on.
It is.
Get your tickets as you're listening to this ad.
Because this ad only goes for another two hours.
So you've got plenty of time to get those tickets.
So do that, please, guys.
You know what?
I know we say this every time.
But fuck.
Jesus.
I don't know if I can do this again, Adelaide.
I don't know if I can fucking do this again.
This pressure of, you know, we're paying a lot of money to fly guests over and to put them up and whatever.
We need you guys to buy tickets.
Well, everyone knows that it doesn't cost a lot of money to go to Adelaide.
Well, hotels are in Adelaide.
It's costing some money.
Yeah.
It's costing some money.
It's costing enough.
Yeah.
Yeah, so anyway, get on to it.
Perth, get on to that.
October 30th.
Sunday.
Sunday afternoon going into the night.
We have changed locations.
People that have bought tickets, there's plenty of you that have bought tickets already.
Just so you know, we will send an email to confirm this, but we have changed locations.
We are at Rosie O'Grady's in Northbridge.
That's where we were two years ago when we did an episode with Luke McGregor and Ann Edmonds and Mike Goldstein.
So if you were there two years ago, that is the venue we're going to.
We have changed back to that venue because the other venue couldn't accommodate us that we had locked in.
So it is Rosie O'Grady's in Northbridge.
It's a great venue.
It's in a great part of town.
Lots going on.
So that is where we are going.
Please do not go to the other venue.
But again, we've got three great special guests,
three of our favourites again.
Rosie O'Grady's is a pretty good name for a venue,
but you know what a certain guest who's on this show sometimes
would prefer it to be called?
Yes.
Rosie O'Gravy's.
Please, please only say that when he's here.
That is not cool to insult someone like that
When they're not even here to reply
Alright
That is not
I like to have a certain sense of decorum about us
And you have stepped over the line Tommy
He likes to have a certain case of decorum
I don't get that
You said decorum
Yeah
I said cake-orum
Oh cake-orum
Alright
Like fat people eat
Okay I get that.
Okay, I'll let that one slide.
So do that.
Then Melbourne.
Hey, as we talked about last week,
and if you're on the social medias,
like we said, get on our Facebook, our Instagram, our Twitter.
You'll already know.
We've already sold a bunch of tickets.
Melbourne, we're coming back.
We're returning to Melbourne.
A triumphant return.
Direct from Melbourne, Australia.
Yeah, yeah.
We're travelling. We're getting on the tram and we Melbourne, Australia. Yeah, yeah. We're travelling.
We're getting on the tram and we're coming to the show.
Yeah.
We are doing a big double episode.
We've never done this in Melbourne before.
When we go to interstate, we always put on three-hour shows and stuff.
We've never done a double episode or a longer show in Melbourne.
So we are doing a back-to-back double episode.
You can only come to both episodes because we can't be fuck-figuring
at how you would buy them individually and get people in and out.
I'm glad we're having complete transparency about this.
That's the reason.
Well, it is.
How the fuck would we do it?
It's too hard to, yeah.
Yeah, so we're doing that.
Plus, as we said, we've got an unrecorded little fucked up stand-up show afterwards
where we have Bogan Baby appearing.
We have Gary Chook appearing.
Yeah.
We have the PJs.
PJ O'Brien appearing.
The PJs are returning.
I'm bringing back my original pyjama set.
We have official Peter Alexander merchandise.
I'm being dressed by Peter Alexander for the night.
And there's plenty other guests.
There's plenty other fucked up stand-up happening with that.
It's none of the stand-up that you know us.
You haven't seen it before, basically, have you?
Yeah, that's true of our normal stand-up anyway.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what else is that?
There is...
So all those tickets and dates and stuff,
littledumbdumbclub.com if people want to purchase them.
Yeah, or nickcody.com.
Go there.
Ask for tickets.
Let's try and get...
Look, we'll say it's not... Nickcody.com, it's not for the Nick Cody that you all know andody.com. Go there. Ask for tickets. Let's try and get... Look, we'll say it's not...
Nickcody.com, it's not for the Nick Cody that you all know and love.
No.
It's a different Nick Cody.
Yeah.
Let's try and get that guy on this show.
No.
Okay.
So there's that.
What else we got?
We got merch.
Hey, hit up...
While you're at littledunmanclub.com, we've got a limited amount of hoodies left.
We've got a limited amount of 0438 t-shirts left.
Yes.
We have got the I'm Aware of Little Dun amount of 0438 t-shirts left. Yes. We have got the
I'm Aware of Little Dungeon Club classic
black t-shirts that never go out of
fashion. Man, we sold a lot of them.
So keep that going. What if we woke up one day
and they had gone out of fashion?
White and black? I don't think that would ever happen.
What if what was going on on the catwalks of Milan?
Yeah.
Fuck, imagine the catwalks of the Milan we know.
Just
models that are pissed falling off the catwalks of the Milan we know Just Just models that are pissed
Falling off the catwalks
Just skinny
40 kilo French models
That are doing shots
And someone's screaming
At them
Best night ever
This is what's going to be happening
With fashion in the next year
Prove it
Prove it
So all that's happening.

There is sweet premium content

I'm actually proud of it. Yeah.
I hate doing it at the time and then when you send me

Yeah. So that's great and then of course
$10 or more, you get that.

a little cool, funny, full episode.
Last month, of course, I hope you all appreciated,
you got the exclusive edited highlights of the actual roast of me
at the 40th birthday spectacular.
So I hope everyone enjoyed how brutal that was.
I was too scared to listen back to it.
I really regret not doing it now because I had to edit it
listening back to it, then I got in the mindset
I edited it while I was in Japan and I was walking around
I just came up with all these fucking
great ones in my head, I was like fuck
yeah, well we'll do it
so now it's a few months too late
here we go, you sir are a cunt
yeah
wow you really got inspiration over in Japan didn't you
and of course part of the deal is if you subscribe to us on Patreon Yeah! Wow, you really got inspiration over in Japan, didn't you?
And of course, part of the deal is if you subscribe to us on Patreon,
we give you a little shout-out in our long-ass introduction to the episode.
We read your name out.
We say thanks.
Yep.
And then we… We bully you.
Put a bit of gravy on it.
And you know what?
We had a request this week.
We've always got guests on the show, obviously.
We had a first ever request for a guest for the Patreon read.
Because it's becoming...
It's the hottest thing in Australia.
It's trending on Twitter.
A lot of people are talking about it.
It's getting a lot of news limited articles about it.
It's a hot topic on the street.
Pauline Hanson's been talking about it.
It's almost getting more coverage than a new blackface scandal.
And in many ways, it's more offensive than that.
It's more offensive than the N-word theatre.
That's the best thing I've ever said.
That was so good.
It is very good.
So, hey, welcome our very first guest to the Patreon element of this show,
Dilraba Jaisingha.
Hello, guys.
What are the chances?
I was just walking past Tommy's lounge room
and then turns out you're doing the Patreon show.
And you heard...
Nice to be here.
You looked up in the sky and you saw the comedy signal.
Yeah, well, to be honest,
I really wanted to be part of this because you know what, guys?
With the Patreon reading, I realised that I love Riffy.
The way you said that before, you were joking,
but I didn't get told by Carl that you were planning to come past.
So literally that's what's happened.
We finished the episode that people are about to hear.
We're out on my front porch saying goodbye.
There's just a brown man running up and down going, Riffy.
No, no, no, you weren't running.
I got a glass of water in my hand.
It starts shaking like in Jurassic Park.
Jurassic Fat Park.
I think people weren't happy that the last couple of times
that the ads have been going for half an hour.
So let's jump in.
Let's get another voice in the mix.
Yeah, let's try and thin this out with Dilruch Jaisinga
I was a bit sort of on the fence about it
I was like worried
Like I don't want to piss people off
But after last week
I'm with you Carl
Fuck them
Let's just make these go for longer and longer
We don't want as much content
Alright here we go
The first official one.
Hey, thank you to everyone, but especially thank you to Patreon subscribers.
Tara Bell.
Tara Bell.
Does that name ring her own name?
Well, it sounds like Taco Bell, so someone over here is a rat.
I couldn't speak because my erection got in the way of the microphone.
Your bell end was over the microphone.
There you go, Tara Bellend.
Tara Bellend.
Fucking hell.
Oh, no.
Thanks, Tara.
My bellend is covered with tar.
You know what?
Let's just get rid of it.
Let's make this the podcast.
People just keep paying money to hear their names.
And by the way
that is part of what we're going to do
with the Fucked Up Stand-Up Show.
There will be a live Patreon read.
There will be a live Patreon read.
That's the headliner I reckon.
I think I might bring out a character
that I once debuted on the Fancy Boy Comedy Showcase
a character called Bollywood Bill
from India.
Which I did write some
gags for, so I'll do that again.
And the first draft of that name, wasn't it
Curry Humphreys? Curry Humphreys.
That was the first draft, yes.
With performing his character Dame India.
The second part wasn't added.
That's a good riff by you.
Actually, last time I introduced Carl Chandler at Spleen,
I was hosting and I introduced Carl as,
ladies and gentlemen, this next man loves riffing.
Please welcome to the stage the riff king.
Rene Riff King.
That's what I said.
I love you, Carl.
I called him Riff Tannen from Call Back to the Future.
I love you, Carl.
I called him Rift Tannen from Call Back to the Future.
But then Dill was wearing exactly what he's wearing now,
this big leather jacket, right?
On stage, man.
Leather jackets in comedy.
I don't know about that.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, Eddie Murphy.
You were wrong.
Yeah, right. Well, he wanted me to intro him as...
What is it again?
Andrew.
Andrew Rice Clay.
Can someone do a poster of Riff Tannen from Call Back to the Future for me?
Yes.
That would make me very happy.
Wow, it's about 20 minutes in and we've read one name,
so this is going spectacularly.
Thank you to Samuel Chappell.
Chappell.
Chappell.
El Chappell.
I'll go to the chapel and pray and thank you for your patronage.
Very good.
Certainly I've never been to your last name, Samuel.
And while I'm in the chapel, I get fingered by a priest.
There you go.
That's no good.
Wait, you've never been to a chapel?
You've never been in a church?
Yeah, I have.
Does your skin burn up as soon as you walk in?
Yeah, yeah.
No, I just got all these neck pains from my head swivelling around violently.
The power of cunt compels you.
That's great.
So your body is able to do that.
Your head's able to just swivel around 360 degrees,
but it still gives you pain.
It's not easy.
What, do you think that's going to feel good?
God.
Thanks.
Anyway, thanks, Samuel.
Thank you to Jack Tibbs.
Tibbsy.
Jack what?
I've just read his email.
It's actually got Tibbsy in the email.
Oh, right.
That's good.
Jack what?
Jack Tibbs. Jack what? Jack Tibs
Jack Tibs

Tibs
Yeah

Did you ever read about Jack Tibs
In Charles Dickens
Great Expectations?

It sounds like a name
That should be in a Charles Dickens
You ever read Biggles?
Well Oliver Twist
Oliver Twist had Charlie Bates
Who was fondly referred to as Master Bates
Oh yeah yeah right
Oh yeah
And we've got
Oliver Twisties

Anyway
Thanks Tibsy
Thanks Jack
Good on you Tibsy
Jack Tib's got the same first name
As a previous sponsor
Jack My Tiny Dick
Oh yeah
Yeah
You related to the two Jacks That's why I kept asking Jack who At the start of that Jack Tibbs got the same first name as a previous sponsor, Jack My Tiny Dick.
You related to the other two Jacks? That's why I kept asking Jack who at the start of that.
Oh, okay.
Sorry.
Thank you, Tibbsy.
Thank you to Richard Henderson.
Hendo.
Dick Hendo.
Yeah, Dick Hendo.
Dick H.
Dick H.
Thanks to the great Dick H.
Good on you, Dicky.
Yeah.
He's got a...
Because when it comes up with their names,
they also have their email addresses come up
on the little spreadsheet that I've got.
He's got a bit of an AOL email.
He's got a such and such at AOL.com.
From a bloke who's still with Yahoo.
Yeah.
That's interesting.
Fair enough.
I think I've never met someone with an AOL.
Do you want me to read out your email address?
0437 at…
No, that's not it.
That means that this person is probably American.
He is, actually.
Now that I think of it, he is.
Looking at his name, Richard Henderson does ring a bell.
Tara Bell.
Tara Bell-in.
He is active on the socials.
He's always saying, hey, you should send us Moose to America
or you should come and do a live show in America,
both of which are very not feasible.
But thanks Hendo for your sweet
Dickie H.
Also, get on the...
You know what his pick up line would be?
He'd be like, how about you get on the H?
Yeah?
Why? As in heroin?
Yeah, but that's like...
That's also the first letter of his last name.
I mean, anytime I'm trying to pick up chicks
I make sure the line exclusively relates to my name in some way
Yeah
Well, you've got the game, I'm sure that's in there
Which last name do you go with, Dazzler or Olson?
Well, that's the great thing, I've got the choice
You want a bit of the D or a bit of the A?
Yeah
That's good, now you're thinking
Anyway, thanks Dickie H
Oh interesting name
Here we go
Thank you to
August James
And I do have that
In the right order
This person's name is
August James
I wonder when
He or she was born
I'll look that up
I'll email them right now
In which month
Oh it's September now as well
So do you think
August is depressed right now
Because their month is over Oh no Because you'd cop so much Of it during August It as well. So do you think August is depressed right now because their month is over?
Oh, no, because you'd cop so much of it during August.
Okay, do you want to know what my – assuming if – is this a guy or a girl?
Assuming it was a girl.
It would be a girl.
Assuming it was the gender that I personally am sexually attracted to.
Whoa, big call.
Is that the first time you've mentioned that on the podcast?
This is very brave what's happening right now
Is that a bit of a newsflash?
Yeah, if you've got this far into the ad
You've just been rewarded
Here's what I would use as a pick up line
I was born in the month of August
How about I get inside the pussy of August?
That's what you would say to August.
Yeah, it's in the game.
It's true.
My birthday's in August.
It's true.
Just to confirm, you are single, yeah?
I like it, but I don't get it.
No shit you don't get it.
Look at you.
I'm kidding.
It felt like it needed just a little extra more and then I went too harsh.
Like you at a buffet.
Little harsh.
Little harsh brown.
Oh, there we go.
If I knew August James, you know what I'd call her?
August Jimmy.
Nice.
That's a good nickname.
Because you only have nicknames with your first name.
You abbreviate the first name like that.
Why can't you do it with the last name?
James is Jimmy.
Do you reckon anyone calls them eight?
Because the eighth month?
Oh.
Hey, call me eight.
It's pretty cool, right?
Why don't you...
Do you reckon she would ever have sex with a bloke called September
just to make sure she came first?
Yay!
Nice.
Yes.
Do we know that it's a girl?
No, we don't.
We have no idea.
No, we don't.
We don't at all.
I'm going to love it if it's like this is a fuck-up,
they've read the form wrong and it actually is James August.
That seems way more likely to me.
I kind of hope it is because it would be way less offensive.
Augustus is a male's name.
True.
Yeah, well, coming from a bloke who looks like Augustus Gloop,
you should know.
I'm going.
All right, all right.
Let's do a couple more.
Let's do a couple more Let's do a couple more
Yeah
Thank you to
The much more
Traditionally named
Thomas Stevens
Oh
Old two first names
Yes
Old TS Elliot
Yeah
So he's going
He's going by Thomas
Yeah
You don't say that that often
No
Thomas
Thomas Stevens
Two first names
Right there
Stephen Thomas
Thomas Stevens If you read his name there. Stephen Thomas, Thomas Stevens.
If you read his name out at roll call, wouldn't sound out of place.
Very multi-purpose name.
Unlike August.
James August.
There's no way it's not James August.
No, it could be James.
James is the last name.
Sure, but I know which one I think is more likely.
Yeah, sure.
Because also that option involves Carl having read it wrong in some way.
Yeah, which I like.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm looking at their email address.
I don't give it away because they've got one of those weird...
My first name is james at gmail.com.
Yeah, you'd never know.
How do you read into that?
No, no, no.
Well, I won't say who they're through, but their email,
August James' email is Life in a can at something
Life in a can
Life in a can
I mean
What does that mean?
I can't actually decipher it
Is it based on something?
Like a pop culture reference?
It must be a lyric or something
Yeah
Well, this is a new quirk of the Patreon
Just trying to decipher people's emails.
It's like reading tea leaves.
Yeah.
So anyway, back to Thomas Stevens.
Thanks, Stevo.
Thanks for all your sweet cash, Tomo.
Tomo Stevo.
Oh, double nickname, Tomo Stevo.
Thanks, Tomo.
All right, let's do, what, two more?
Two quick mores.
Let's go with, thank you to Elise Condon.
Oh, jeez.
What can we do with Condon?
I don't know.
I just hope she's safe out there.
I hope she's doing some safe patroning.
Before she donates, she wraps it.
I wonder if she's using her plastic to donate to us via card.
Cook your meat properly.
You don't want to go in raw.
That's no good.
Yeah, exactly.
Just, you know, hey, enough name calling.
She's rubber, I'm glue.
I mean, it's still, we're getting near summer,
but it's still, there can be a few chilly days.
Wear a jacket.
Don't go out bareback.
I come inside a dinger.
Yeah. I come inside a dinger.
We've never been this good.
This is so great.
Elise, please let them know if condom has ever come back to haunt you.
I'm sure going through high school.
We're the first ones.

Enjoy this week's episode with Bart Freeban and Anne Edmonds.
Hello.
Come on in.
Griffey.
Hey, mates.
Welcome once again into the Little Dumb Dumb Club for another week.
Thank you very much for joining us.
My name is Tommy Dasolo and sitting opposite me is the other half of the program, Carl Chandler.
G'day, dickhead.
You've forgotten your little content machine this morning,
your little laptop that's got all your little secret notes for the podcast.
Yeah, that always comes up on the podcast.
No, it doesn't.
I don't think this really matters, Tommy.
I think you've chased a wrong lead. Really? It's all in the memory bank. You're all ready to go? It's always in the podcast. No, it doesn't. I don't think this really matters, Tommy. I think you've chased a wrong lead here.
Really?
It's all in the memory bank.
You're all ready to go?
It's always in the memory bank.
Okay.
Okay.
Well, what about this?
We got asked, a lady emailed us during the week asking us if we would wish a happy 33rd
wedding anniversary to her husband.
Oh, are we doing this?
And she'll pay us 50 bucks.
Oh, really?
Will we do it?
Okay.
Do we want to do it? It could be anyone. Should we read the name out? All right. All right really? Will we do it? Okay. Do we want to do it?
It could be anyone.
Should we read the name out?
All right.
Because once we do that, it's binding.
She has to pay us 50 bucks.
Okay.
Is it Ronnie Chang?
To Ronnie Chang.
Happy anniversary, Jeff, from Tracy.
Cha-ching.
There you go.
They normally go away for their anniversary,
but bad stuff keeps happening to them when they travel
And you'd swear they were jinxed, according to her
And so she thought this is a better alternative
Than going on a holiday
It's just getting a podcast to shout him out
Wow, so anyway, if you're just tuning in
Welcome to the Royal Melbourne Children's Hospital Appeal
If you donate $75, we'll both kill ourselves
Yes, well she said $50
And she said,
use it to go buy yourselves a drink or something
or just do whatever you want with it.
I don't mind.
Which is extremely generous of her, I think you'll have to admit.
Should we use that on our anniversary?
Of this podcast?
Let's get a really, really, really bad hotel room
and shack up for the night.
Yeah, let's share a bed in a backpack for a night.
Yeah, let's share a bunk.
Let's do it. Okay. Let's share a bed in a backpack Let's share a bunk Let's do it Okay
Let's welcome our guests into the show
First of all
You know him from his other podcast
Well his podcast
We Are Not Doctors
Please welcome back into the little dum-dum club
Bart Freebear
Hey
I feel so good to be here
What would you do with 50
If I gave you 50 bucks right now
What would you do with it?
I'd shelve it probably
Because the pressure in my butt had turned it into a diamond.
Oh, that's pretty good.
And then I'd use that to marry somebody.
You're an anal...
An anal...
Fuck, I wish I...
An anal alchemist.
An anal alchemist, yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
We are all kind of anal alchemists because we turn food into shit.
Yeah, well, that's reverse, but yeah, sort of.
If you think shit's gold, sure, but it's not actually.
No.
Comedy-wise, I think shit's gold.
If you're a plant, then shit's real good business.
Yeah.
Because it's gold for you.
Also joining us, you'll know her from Have You Been Paying Attention.
Please welcome back into the little dum-dum club, Anne Edmonds.
Hey, I'm back.
Yeah, it's good to be back.
Eddie.
Buddy, it feels like science week in here.
50 bucks right now.
What are you doing with it?
I just get up the bloody Woolworths and I've got a few things I need like icing.
You need icing?
Yeah.
I'm making my niece a Shopkins cake.
Oh, yeah.
What's a Shopkins cake?
They're these little pieces of shit that live on the floor.
That's cockroaches. You're making a cockroach cake. No, they're these little, I don't know, they're like little pieces of shit that live on the floor. Hey. That's cockroaches.
You're making a cockroach cake.
No, they're these little, I don't know, they're like little pieces of food and you collect
them all.
The kids are mad for it.
Oh, it's a kid's toy thing, right?
It's a kid's toy.
I thought it was like a brand of food that we'd never heard of.
No, no, no.
It's a kid's toy and I'm replicating one of the toys into a cake.
I love it.
So she can eat it.
Yeah.
You've become a real, you're really into the baking, into the cooking.
I love baking, yeah.
Is this a recent thing Or is this just a
No I always baked
Like since I was a kid
But
It's good for my
Yeah I like it
It's good for my mental health
What's the biggest cake
You've ever baked
What's the most famous cake
You've ever made
How fast have you ever baked
I make
The one I'm making at the moment
It's pretty big
It's a double
Yeah
Like two on top of each other
So two
Like two stories
Two stories yeah I bake two Double decker a double. Yeah. Two on top of each other. So like two stories? Two stories, yeah.
Double decker.
Double decker, yeah.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, I need a bit of height.
Well, I think you'd be familiar with this.
We were talking about this the other week on the show
and we got a lot of feedback from it.
We were talking about Junket, a product that I had never heard of
and the text lines lit up with people sharing their Junket memories.
Did you get fed Junket as a child?
Yeah, I know what junket is.
I'm trying to remember.
Is it sort of custard related?
It's in the genre.
It's the custard genre.
I remember it.
I've got a product that you might be interested in.
Oh, yes, go on.
In the custard genre.
Yes.
Close your eyes.
Don't get on the cake.
Oh, I've junketed on Carl.
What a junket Do you add water
Hot water to something
Yeah yeah
Something like that
It's like
It's a bygone era dessert
Yeah I know it
Anything where
The only steps are
Sashay
And water
No good
Really
I'm going to say
Really jelly
Because I get fascinated
In that island supermarket
Where you've got that whole
That whole Branch of that stuff,
of those little packets where it's $1 to $1.50
and it's like, it's an instant meal right here.
Just chuck this on top of your meat.
I'm like, oh, wow.
It looks so good.
It's a science dessert, really.
It looks so good but then you look at it and go,
you can't pay $1.50 and have a great meal.
Yeah.
That's not going to work.
You've got to have meat have a great meal. Yeah. That's not going to work, is it?
You've got to have meat to chuck it on.
Yeah.
It's like how McCain are always trying to turn around
and convince you that their pizzas are getting slowly better.
Nah.
And it's like, they're $3 and they're in the freezer.
It doesn't need to be any better.
Nah, that's what it is.
It's fine for what it is, but they're always like,
nah, we're using real chook now.
Yeah.
Great.
Good on you.
Have you tried it though?
Yeah, that's what I was going to say because back in the day I would get that stuff and
go, oh yeah, I'll get a $2 pizza or whatever.
It can't be that bad.
Oh, fuck it is.
But now I haven't seen the equivalent.
Has it gotten any better?
How can it?
Like what can they be doing?
I was pretty fucking bad back then.
Like it was sort of pretty cardboardy with a couple of bits of-
It can only get better, can't it?
Yeah.
It's pretty wet from my memory.
I love a wet food though.
I do love a wet food.
A wet pizza?
You like a bit of wet pizza?
I like a wet sandwich.
Do you?
Yeah.
One that's been in with a primer in your lunchbox.
It's got juicy wetness to it.
I like wet chips.
Like hot, hot ones wet or crisp scum wet.
No, no, not soggy barbecues.
The soggy biscuit.
No.
I like when you get those hot chips that have been in not enough air
or whatever it is and they've gone all soggy.
Oh, the best.
They're the best chips.
We need to do like a dum-dum digustation night where we have junket,
we have a McCain's pizza, we have wet chips.
Wet chips out of a juicy arsehole.
Number one best food.
Who knew that was going to happen?
Am I right, guys?
Nostalgia.
Call in.
1-800.
Who remembers when you were a kid and your dad had pulled chips out of his arsehole?
Yeah.
I was talking to someone the other day about when I was a kid and Fruit Loops always had
the best ads on TV for children.
Oh, yeah.
They're always like a little – the bird's going on adventures
and it's very colourful and you get sucked in.
Do they have a teak – what's that bird?
It's a toucan.
Toucan.
Teacan.
Toucan, Sam.
Teacap, Sam.
And I would always go – I'd always see the ads and go,
I want Froot Loops.
This is what I'm – mum and dad, I've got an announcement.
This is what I'm doing for breakfast from here on out.
It's Fruit Loops every day. And Dad would always go,
no, no, no, we go through this every six months.
You see the ads, you get excited, we get the Fruit Loops
and then you don't... You have one bowl
and you don't touch them again because they're shit.
Your dad's a bit homophobic. My son,
my only son wants Fruit Loops every day
of his life.
Dad, I want to suck off the toucan
on the Fruit Loops ad and there's nothing
you can do about it. This is what we get for
feeding him junkies when he was young.
But yeah, and then
eventually mum would cave at the
supermarket. Mum was a bit of a softer
touch than dad.
Your mum was soft to touch?
I knew as that was
coming out of my mouth. Oh, it looks like he doesn't want Froot Loops
anymore.
But yeah, we'd get the Froot Loops.
I'd have one bowl of them and then, you know, they're shit.
They're the worst cereal.
So much sugar.
And then they would just sit in the pantry for like months
until Dad would go, I'm going to feed these to the birds
and not even the birds would touch them.
Oh, not even the toucans?
Not even the toucans.
Ironic, right?
Wow, that's false advertising.
I wonder if they've gotten any better.
Froot Loops were always, they were so shit.
Did you call your cupboard at home a pantry for food?
Yeah.
Righto.
Is that a bit la-di-da?
Ooh, la-la.
Is that a bit la-di-da, is it?
This is when Tommy lived on the French Riviera, by the way.
What?
Is this really a thing?
Yeah.
What do you call it?
Cupboard.
Food hole.
The bin.
You know what I did this morning?
Talking of cereal Ate over a bin?
Oh no
This is the one morning where I didn't
It's a very good way to eat
It's good because that's what I do
Eating over the toilet is probably better
I believe last time you got grilled about this on the podcast
Was perhaps by Adam Richard
You were like I don't eat over the bin
He loves it
As soon as Bart goes, it's pretty good.
You flipped and you went, yeah, it's great, isn't it?
I do it.
I'm Carl Chandler.
Yeah, sure.
Wet chips have an arsehole.
Eat over the bin.
They're just going to end up there anyway.
Cut me at the middle, man.
Just get your food and just throw it into the bin.
Eat your food out of your own arsehole.
It's just going to end up there eventually.
Cycle of life, mate.
Haven't you watched Lion King?
Haven't you watched Human Centipede?
So I got through my cereal cupboard this morning.
You know, do you do this?
Wait, wait, wait.
I'm getting shit.
You've got a cupboard for cereal specifically.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm getting shit for being la-di-da.
You've got a whole cupboard for it.
It's the bottom shelf is where all the all the cereal goes. Then you call the
cereal cupboard. Well, I called it in that sentence.
But I'll do it from now on. So,
do you have that thing where you collect
like, where you'll have a heap of cereal boxes that you
don't get through? Yeah.
Got through them all. Cleaned it out this morning. That's it.
Hang on a minute. How many, did you
just go, I'm going to have a bowl out of all of these?
I didn't have ten breakfasts
this morning. Because you were about 15 minutes late to this. We were just sitting at home eating cereal. I've got to have a bowl out of all of these? I didn't have ten breakfasts this morning. Yeah, because you were about 15 minutes late to this.
We were just sitting at home eating cereal.
I've got to have something to talk about.
I'm going to eat eight bowls of shit.
Oh, fuck, I've left the laptop at home.
How am I going to remember all the cereals I ate?
Let's fill up the mop bucket.
How many litres of milk we got?
Five?
That'll have to do.
We'll use a wooden spoon.
No, it's been filling up and I was like, you know what, I'm going to get
through it. Today, today's the day where I chucked
at the last box. I am
sans cereal. Did you,
I know what's going to happen. You're going to forget to buy
new ones today. Of course I am. You'll wake up in the
morning and go hungry until lunchtime.
And then I'm going to go and buy
chips from KFC for breakfast.
So you eat cereals, your
standard breakfast every day?
Yes.
You don't go for toast or?
Off bread.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, no bread.
Trying to drop a few kgs.
Cereal is in the bread family.
Yeah, but it's not directly.
You know, it's a second cousin or something.
He's worked out all the angles.
Don't try and pin him down.
Well, don't try and tell me that a fucking Cocoa Pop is a loaf of bread.
I don't like it when people say this.
Pies are in the bread.
No, they're fucking not.
Well, it does come down to just calories, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, but so does everything.
This fucking table's got calories if you eat it.
No.
There's some very similar logic going on in Donald Trump's part of the debate at the moment right now, I think.
So that's true.
Everything's got calories.
Because one calorie is the energy to bring water up by one degree.
That's what a calorie is.
Oh, right.
Oh, we're back to science class.
This is so educational.
You're fucking science jackets, friends.
Actually, what happens?
Like I just said, if you ate that table, that would have calories in it.
No.
It would, wouldn't it?
No.
Fuck, the calories that you're putting on are the least of your worries
if you're eating a table.
I've tried to cut out tables from my diet.
I'm going to look like such a fat bitch when I've eaten this table.
Oh, my God.
I'm just moving down to chairs.
But literally, is that the case?
You know, you go to McDonald's and you've got the whole
this burger is 2800 calories.
If you ate that book
if you ate Tommy Daslow's copy of the game
how many calories would that be?
None. Because your body
can't process it.
There's a certain white fluid on some of the
pages of that book that are contributing to the calorie
count. Your liver would be a lot sleazier.
You're shooting loads over how to get women.
Put on a feather bower.
Tell her that you don't like her.
Oh, fuck.
Imagine what happens after that.
Yeah, because you've got to burn it so there's calories in it.
Yeah, but your body can't burn it.
Right.
So if you eat pages, if you eat paper.
I used to eat paper.
No, you won't get anything out of it.
You won't get, there won't be calories.
No, because it's not, there is energy in it,
but your body can't get it out.
It can be burnt.
Right.
But you can't burn it.
I like how Edo just made the statement.
Who's burning it?
Just someone in the backyard.
I like how Edo just made the statement,
I used to eat paper.
A genuinely insane proclamation
And it just got absolutely passed over
Edo, have you done the paperwork?
Oh yeah
I'm fucking full
Couldn't need another page
What was that?
Oh no, nothing
Is that how you keep so slim, Edo?
Because there's no calories in paper.
What dress size are you, A4?
Trying to get down to an A5.
Do you want a leaflet for supper?
No, just a page, thanks.
Trying to cut down.
She looks sick.
She must be a DL.
That's showing some good knowledge of paper sizes.
Thank you.
I've owned a printer
So you
What did you do?
So you were putting
You went through the last of your boxes
So what did you do?
Did you just have a little bit of each?
Or did you put them all into the one big bowl?
No, no, no
I just had
You know, a couple of weeks ago
I just had six, seven boxes there
And I'm like, oh, this is crazy
Because I've got a bad habit of going to the supermarket
Name your cereals
What are your cereals?
What do you have?
All the old people
You'd have Just Right and All Brand and all that shit, I reckon.
Keeping in mind, if you say Nutri-Gran, I'm going to bash you.
With the microphone.
I did have Nutri-Gran.
Oh!
You're fucking bashed.
Is that bad?
Why is that bad?
I just reckon it's the pits, that stuff.
In what way?
Just gross little bricks made of pulp.
Are they still doing this?
Because remember in the 90s or whatever
the ads for it were like
it was, you know,
it's always,
it's Iron Man food
but it's so,
I can't imagine anyone
doing anything active
after eating that cereal.
It's so heavy.
It's got to have sugar in it.
Oh, definitely.
That's all it is.
That's all it bloody is, mate.
Having said that,
I've tried to not have it
because that's why
that's the last thing
in the larder.
That was the last thing in the larder today.
But I try and get the – because I've got a bad habit of going to the supermarket and just seeing –
Just quickly, larder is more posh than pantry.
Yeah.
Larder's the top of poshness.
Larder does sound a bit more like la-di-da.
Yeah.
I think larder is what a fridge was before there were fridges.
Oh.
I don't know that for sure.
Now we're getting fucking scientific, aren't we?
In those like wooden boxes that you see.
Yeah, I feel like a twig.
It's like, that's the old school fridge.
No, it's not.
It's a box with meat in it.
Yeah.
No, I feel like it's where you'd put butter before there was.
I've been reading a lot about boxes with meat in it in the game.
Hello.
Anyway.
Delete your account.
Eat some paper. I've got a bad habit Delete your account Eat some paper
I've got a bad habit
Of going to the supermarket
And seeing cereal on special
And I'm a sucker
For cereal on special
Really
So that's why
My house fills up with cereal
Anything else on special
Float your boat
Or just cereal
Cereal's a big one
Yeah
Because you can't get meat on special
Because it's like
Oh I'm not going to eat that this week
But cereal
Hang on
Week
This week
I've already got a lot of meat Backed up Can't get any more None of that special meat But cereal is sitting you. Hang on. Week. This week.
I've already got a lot of meat backed up.
Can't get any more.
None of that special meat. What's your meat turnaround?
Well, my meat cupboard's full.
Yeah.
You've got to eat meat within the week, yeah?
Yeah.
No meat gets to the front of the line either.
There's a queue.
You've got to eat the meat you bought.
Yeah.
For, you know, like if you buy meat, you can't, it goes to the back.
Yeah, exactly.
But with cereal, it's's like you got 12 months
Yeah
Don't you
Yeah
Roughly
Longer I'd say
Like as long as you're willing to wait
And take a chance
Well that was my
That was my big wake up call
Because I went to get cereal
A couple of weeks ago
And it had run out of date
I was like fuck
Wow
How do you run out of date with cereal
Have you heard about that whole
Thing about the dates
Being a bit of a lie anyway
Like they used to be secret and hidden
and then they'd just have it
so they could cycle the stuff.
And the whole idea of food going off
I mean it obviously goes off but it doesn't
they're used by dates a bit of a lie.
It's more like you can tell if it's off.
Fuck, there's a lot of chunky milk at home
that I'm going to drink tonight.
Interesting theory. Now what about 9-11?
Tell us your thoughts on that.
Jet fuel.
9-11 was actually the Twin Towers expiry date.
That's completely correct.
Prove me wrong.
It's very good.
Put a bit of milk on it.
Finally someone got through those last two towers.
Just shave off the top.
It's probably good to go.
God was like, I've got to finish these.
Or I'll get sick.
I spent all of last night thinking I was going to get sick
because I ate some leftover food from my fridge
and was like, oh, yeah, I've got this.
And then ate it.
It was some pasta with bacon in it.
And then was sort of doing the maths in my head about when I cooked it
and went, oh, I might be in trouble here.
Like really – and was tempted to Google how long you can keep it for
but then I thought, I kind of don't want to know.
And then it's like, you know, when you think you might –
you know, you think you might have done something to yourself,
any like slight feeling that you get, you're like –
I was lying in bed going, ah, this is it.
I'm going to have to call off the podcast in the morning
because I'm going to be fucking violently ill.
You're wearing an adult nappy going to bed. Just ready. I'm here to tell to call off the podcast in the morning because I'm going to be fucking violently ill. You're wearing an adult nappy.
Just ready.
I'm here to tell the tale.
So what else have you got?
You know what I've got?
Nutri-Grain.
Yeah, Nutri-Grain.
Pretty much Nutri-Grain and home brand Corn Flakes
or Sanitarium Corn Flakes.
Wow, you got them on special?
They are.
They're always on special.
No, they're a dollar.
They go down a little bit.
And they go below $2.
And I'm like, well, you're an idiot not to buy cornflakes.
You are a fucking shyster.
But that's great.
You know that it gives you a little endorphin when you get something on a remarkable special?
I'm like, that is crazy to buy food for at least five or six mornings for $1.90.
You're crazy not to buy that.
You're an idiot not to buy like cheap home brand cornflakes.
Yes.
Yeah, you're a fool.
All of you aren't.
If I go into that larder now and it's a jam full of $1.90 cornflakes,
you're a fucking idiot.
It is so easy to go in and you're like, this is what I want.
And then right next to it, there'll be the same product,
slightly different.
Maybe it's a different flavor or whatever.
And it's 50 cents off.
And you go, oh, you got to get that then.
And you come home and all of a sudden you've got a whole trolley of stuff
that you sort of actually don't really want.
Yeah, they get you.
80% of what you kind of went in there wanting to get.
Yeah, they get you.
Yeah, you save 10 cents on each item and then you go out Friday night
and go, I'll buy 17 shots for everyone.
Cool.
That's literally it, though.
Like, you'll, yeah, beer doesn't factor into that at all.
Like, if you're going out drinking, it's like, hey, money is no object.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's go crazy.
You're not looking at the taps going, what's that, $6.70?
And what's that, $6.80?
I'll have the $6.70, thanks.
So what have you got now?
You've got a blank slate.
What are you going to do?
Yeah, what are you going to do?
Starting from day dot, what are you going to do?
Well, I'd be an idiot not to go and save myself another bunch of money
and get a bunch of $1.90 cornflakes, wouldn't I?
Are you into your brick-type Weet-Bix, Adam?
Yeah.
No, I haven't.
You're not into it?
Man, they're good.
You know the dirt out the front of your house?
That's free, right?
That's a good deal.
How many calories?
That's low calories.
Is it?
Dirt.
Who's burning the dirt?
I don't think dirt burns very well, to be honest.
Ed, you would have been a dirt eater as a child.
Should we get back to the paper eating?
Ed, you would have eaten a bit of shit in your day.
Yeah, if you hadn't said the paper thing,
that would have been the harshest comment.
Yeah, no, I don't remember eating dirt,
but I definitely ate a lot of paper.
I was worried my organs were paper maché for a while.
What age was this?
I feel like we've talked about this before perhaps.
Yeah, I think we have.
Because particularly, you know,
because I talked about the dot metric printer
and those holes down the side.
They were my favourite thing to eat.
Oh, they're delicious.
Yeah, I used to rip them off and eat them.
It's like the aero bar of paper.
Oh, yeah.
It's delicious.
I like that a lot.
It's paper but not too much paper.
Good texture.
I read something about it.
It means something too.
Eating paper?
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure I know what it means.
I can take a few stabs if you'd like.
I've got a lot of funny words that I could use.
But what age was this up until?
Probably like 10 or 12.
Okay.
Until your dad got rid of the printer?
Yeah.
You sort of were – like, you know, you could have said like 23.
Yeah, yeah.
And it wouldn't have shocked me.
No.
Well, I still suck my thumb.
Right.
Oh, that sentence ended better than I...
I still suck my own dick.
Do you get...
When you go to the dentist, does he know?
Is he like...
Yeah, well, no, there was a time where...
Or she.
All right.
Or it.
It.
Let's not just have...
Or she.
All right, mate. It's all right. 2016, don't email in. Don's not just have violence. Oh, she. All right, mate.
It's all right.
2016, don't email in.
Don't write a fucking blog.
I, yes, no, there was a standoff between my mum,
the orthodontist, and me for a while over.
I was only allowed to have braces if I stopped sucking my thumb
and I refused to stop.
And then I didn't get the braces.
How does that conversation go when you say, I refuse?
No, thanks. Watch me putting it in. when you say, I refuse? No thanks.
Watch me putting it in.
Oh, yeah, I just put it in.
I just stare at it.
There wasn't a conversation.
It was just you sticking it in.
Yeah, just putting it in.
Because I remember seeing you at gigs when I was sort of first getting to know you
and you'd be pacing around sucking your thumb.
And I was always like, well, that's an interesting thing.
I'd like to bring that up.
But what if this is like sleepwalking and like she doesn't know that she's doing it and if
I bring it up it's like you're not meant
to wake up a sleepwalker. What if me
telling her makes her go insane?
I don't know I'm doing it when I'm
doing it. Right. Because I get, particularly if
I'm anxious or something, it goes in there. Right.
And then I suddenly realise where I
am. Especially when I used to have off jobs.
Just take up smoking. I know.
Or suck and dick.
Sorry, I'm just really anxious. Sorry, mate. I used to have off jobs. Just take up smoking. I know. Or suck a dick. Sorry, I'm just really anxious.
Sorry, mate.
I think that more helps other people that are anxious, but yeah.
How long have you been driving buses for?
Mate, that's a lot of cum.
That's a lot of cum.
How many calories in that?
In cum?
Yeah.
Depends, I suppose, how big the load is.
If you've been eating paper, not so much.
Well, I think if you're...
Can't burn it.
Yeah, a couple litres of cum is a solid meal.
But is the amount of calories in that,
is that like consistent from person to person?
Or would it change based on like their diet and stuff?
Cereal intake.
Cereal intake.
Can you have fat cum?
Glad you're asking me as I am the number one foremost expert on cum calories.
It's what I've spent my whole life on.
You think I'm doing stand-up.
No, I'm at home.
Number one cum camp.
I'm at home getting loads and testing them.
Oh, that's a bit of a lemony one.
Let's test that for calories, shall we?
Yes, sir. How do you sit fire to cum? Who's that? A little kid. Yeah, it's a bit of a lemony one. Let's test that for calories, shall we? Yes, sir.
How do you sit, fight and come?
Who's that?
A little kid.
Yeah, it's my lab assistant.
What's he doing there?
He's a grown man who loves sucking helium.
Making a lot of assumptions.
As well as dick.
Here's my question about food.
I have a thing where we're talking about expiry dates of food and cereal and so forth.
And you made that great 9-11 call. Yeah. It was good. Very good. Thanks, everyone. about food. I have a thing where we're talking about expiry dates of food and cereal and so forth.
And you made that great 9-11 call.
Remember that?
It was good.
Very good.
Thanks everyone.
Next t-shirt I reckon.
Bit of a stretch.
This is what I do
with meat.
We're talking
about shopping for meat.
If I buy a bunch
of meat
and I've got it
for the week
then I'm sort of
panicking going
I've got to cook
this this week.
And quite often I'll be out I'll be busy I'll be doing stuff and I get to the Friday or the Saturday I've got it for the week, then I'm sort of panicking going, oh, I've got to cook this this week. And quite often, I'll be out, I'll be busy, I'll be doing stuff, and I get to the Friday
or the Saturday, I've got that meat from the last weekend and go, oh, I've got to cook
it now.
But then, is this, in my head, this works.
I'll cook it on the Friday or Saturday and then go, oh, we've got another week.
Yep.
Bingo.
Is that how it works?
I mean, I'm the same as you and I've never known if that's right or not.
That's all right.
I was like, oh, yeah, I've just wound myself another week there.
Yeah, yeah.
I've extended the shelf life.
Have you then eaten it after the week and gotten sick?
Because there's your answer.
I've got a bit of an iron gut, I think.
So I think I could sort of eat pretty much anything.
You're killing all the bacteria when you cook it and then it's got to start over again.
Yeah, it's a new one.
Right.
It just depends on how, well, if you're like not putting, you know, like you clean up and
then you put the meat on a fresh plate and you cover it and you put it in the fridge
straight away.
Yeah.
You're good.
No, that's your cum procedure.
Hey, come on.
Who's been sneaking around my lab?
Your larder.
My cum larder.
That's my cum pantry.
Thank you. Magna cum larder. Demi cum larder. My cum larder. That's my cum pantry. Magna cum larder.
Demi cum larder.
It's me old cum pantry, I like to call it.
The old spoof cupboard.
I do that where, like if you Google like how long can you keep this kind of meat
under these conditions and whatever, it's kind of not helpful
because there's always like yeah there's
always like a chandler like an iron guts gun ah fucking six months just leave that chook there
it's good to go it's fine there's someone who's just like got this iron constitution who just like
does not care well if you're like the opposite you're the opposite of me i think i've got a bit
of an iron guts and i think you you know you walk outside and sniff a sausage and go oh no I've got to sit on the toilet.
How often does that happen?
Every day.
Let me tell you the election was very difficult waiting in line.
I mean I've got, mine's clearly a medical thing that I have just never gone and had checked out.
I clearly have an intolerance to something but I've never, because you know if you go
and see someone about it –
I'm closed off.
Closed up.
If you have to go do that exclusion diet where you spend a week going through
and it's like –
Yeah, just eat paper.
Now just eat cardboard.
Now discount cornflakes.
Week three, this is the fun one.
Only cum for the whole week.
Let's push it another couple of weeks.
Go to Bart's lab, get a jug.
Bart's lab.
I've gone on to...
I used to...
My breakfast routine was that of a child.
I'd just get like...
I just would get anything with a fucking cartoon animal on the box.
And I've drawn a line under it because it's no good.
I'm on porridge now.
Oh, right.
How's that going?
I've gone completely the other way.
Do you put stuff in the porridge? Put a little bit of honey on top. What are you using there? Full cream milk to make it's no good. I'm on porridge now. Oh, right. How's that going? I've gone completely the other way. Do you put stuff in the porridge?
Put a little bit of honey on top. What are you using there?
Full cream milk to make it? No, water. Just water.
Water? What about cinnamon?
No, just honey. Get into
the cinnamon. It's good for you. That's gluggy, mate.
Is it really? Yeah, good for your insulin sensitivity.
Your what? Insulin sensitivity?
What's that?
Insulin sensitivity, thanks.
Sensitive.
You guys know about insulin? Yeah, insulin's the… Insulin sensitivity, thanks. Sensitivity.
You guys know about insulin?
Yeah, something about diabetes. No, like it's in…
You gave it a crack there.
Guys, put on your lab hats.
Oh, no.
Hang on.
He's going to spoof everyone.
There's your insulin.
Lick it up.
It's the good stuff.
It gets the…
It regulates your blood sugar.
So it is something to do with diabetes.
Well, if you don't have it, then you've got diabetes.
If your insulin doesn't work properly, you get diabetes.
But everyone else has got it shooting around all the time.
And what does cinnamon do?
Make it sort of...
It makes it work better.
Supposedly.
My dad got told that he had diabetes and then he went to a naturopath and she was like
Nah you don't have diabetes
Who would you listen to?
Are you allowed to just tell people that?
That's a pretty risky diagnosis to me
Also a disease shouldn't be an opinion
You got cancer
Nah you don't
Just wash your hands you'll be fine
Your hands are just covered in grime They're filthy You wash it all off all of a sudden Just wash your hands, you'll be fine.
Your hands are just covered in grime.
They're filthy.
You wash it all off, all of a sudden, completely clean. No, it's just a bad pollen day.
You don't have cancer.
I thought I had stage three leukaemia.
Turns out I just had a bit of grease on my hand.
Went to the dietician.
He put me on a diet.
I'm just eating eggshells and paper.
Low calorie, high fibre.
What about this slight gear shift?
We haven't talked about this.
Tommy Dassler, you've just been on holidays in Japan.
Yes.
And we haven't talked about that.
I mean, you were there for two weeks.
I was there for two weeks.
I went to Japan.
I made the interesting decision to travel with my mum and dad over to Japan.
You chandled it.
Two weeks.
I chandled it.
Tough because your dad's got diabetes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He couldn't enjoy all the sugary treats over there.
Yeah.
Now, you've done it.
We've talked about it on the show a little bit.
I've done it twice now.
You've done it twice.
Yeah.
Thailand with your parents.
Ed, you've done a bit of parent travelling, have you not?
Yeah.
I spend a lot of time with my parents.
But I don't know if we've had an actual night away
Oh yeah I do
Family holiday
I feel like there was a family holiday with you recently
Where you spewed in the car or something
Oh cracker
That's great
But you ever travelled with the folks?
Yeah I travelled through South East Asia with my dad
Oh really?
Just dad, mum stayed at home
Okay
Wow
By choice or just not invited?
Well we wanted to do a bit of backpacking
And she likes the good life.
So not that we did all backpacking but –
And how did you find it?
It was great.
Yeah.
Travelling with Dad was awesome.
Right.
He was real chilled out.
Did he pay for everything?
He paid for a fair bit of stuff.
Yeah, it's good.
I was really keen to slum it a little bit and just go into weird places
and go for hikes and stuff and then he'd go,
let's get a nice hotel.
Come on.
That's all right.
We'd get somewhere nice.
It was great.
Yeah.
I found it to be one of the most exhausting experiences of my entire life.
Like fucking hell.
Like it was great and they had a really great time.
And I think, I don't know, I think you go on holiday with your parents
and you look at it as like you'll look on it more fondly
the more time goes on, if that makes sense.
Did you take pictures?
Yeah.
What do you mean?
Of like you all together.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's the sort of thing that I found when I came back.
You look at the pictures and you're all smiling.
You've taken a picture of a nice thing and you remember that.
You don't remember the hard times.
Yeah, you don't remember the fight in the train station. What about cultural faux
pas? Did they do any things that
made you just want to run away?
What's the paper over in Japan like?
Yum, yum.
If you eat one of those origami little birds, is it still
the same calories? Yeah, they're pretty filling.
That's why origami was invented.
So there were more meal choices.
That's like a happy meal over there.
Well, we – so we flew over and like we – on the plane over,
we were all sitting kind of separately, like not near each other.
Who did you fly with?
Jetstar.
Ooh.
Rough bottom.
Good deal.
Sounds like the pantry's dried up.
Had to downgrade from a larder to a pantry.
I think they sold their pantry on Gumtree.
Yeah, so we were sitting like not near each other,
which I passed off as, oh, wow, they just randomly assigned these.
No, I did that deliberately when I got the tickets.
So mum, like we take off and then, you know,
the point where you're allowed to take your seatbelts off and stuff.
Mum is like motioning at me going, hey, hey, come over, come over.
So I undo my seatbelt and I'm on the other aisle on the other side
so you don't have to walk up and cut through and go all the way around.
So I get my way over there and I'm like, what's up?
And she goes, jeez, the plane's big, isn't it?
That was it?
That's why I came over here?
And she's like, yeah, just look at it.
I'm like, fuck, here we go.
Well, this is the first thing that's happened.
It's going to be a good two weeks.
So the toughest bit of it was we were mostly in Airbnbs that I booked
that were like apartments where, you know, there was plenty of space.
But then mum went rogue and just booked in because we were in Tokyo
at the beginning at the end, just booked us into hotels,
all of us in the same room.
What?
At the beginning and the end.
I didn't know this had happened.
Why?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I wish I had overseen this part of it.
Yeah.
Because it was pretty fucking brutal.
So you're talking double bed and a single with you on it?
I'm talking one queen bed that we're all in.
No!
Well, I got scared.
There was a thunderstorm.
Mummy, hold little Tommy.
I'm surrounded by
Japanese people. I'm scared.
So we get in and the
second night we were there, a guy that I
know, I don't even know him that well.
I just saw that he happened to be
in Japan. Your dad?
No, go on. Yeah, I'm not on first name basis with him yet. I just saw that he happened to be in Japan. Your dad? No, go on. Yeah, I'm not on first name basis with him yet.
I just saw that he happened to be, and, you know,
he's just desperate for an escape.
So I was like, oh, hey, man, I'm in Japan too.
Do you want to go get a beer?
And he's like, yeah, that'd be great.
So I have dinner with my folks.
They go to bed.
I go out.
And I end up just getting fucking blind with this friend of mine.
Like we go to a karaoke room where it's like,
I think it's like $30 an hour and then you can just drink
as much as you want when you're in there.
So you're trying to hit that $30 at least.
Trying to get your yen's worth.
Yeah, yeah.
We're there for like three hours.
We just get fucking so blind.
I come home at 4.30.
My parents are awake.
They're waiting up for me.
No.
Yeah, they're sitting up waiting for me.
I come in just fucking leathered and they're like,
why haven't you been replying to our messages?
And I'm like, I told you, my phone's not working here.
I'm on a different SIM.
And they're like, oh, we forgot.
We thought something had happened.
And like they're up waiting for me.
They're sitting up.
What do you do if you're just waiting for someone to come home?
They've got the TV on but it's all in fucking Japanese.
So they're just sitting there trying to pretend like,
oh, yeah, we're just killing time just seeing what's on the old idiot box.
It's some fucking guy.
It's some guy getting fucking cream poured on his head
and people shouting at him.
They're like, oh, yeah, this is good, isn't it?
Just a bit of –
Just stay in Bart's lab.
Hey, those experiments are confidential.
Bart's son's lab. Hey, those experiments are confidential. Bart's son's lab.
Just seeing if you turned up on the news probably.
Yeah, pretty much.
So I come in and I'm just fucked and then I just like pass out straight away
and then I get up in the morning.
We were checking out.
Dad wakes me up with like ten minutes to go because I'm about to sleep
through the checkout time.
I just quickly pack up and I've forgotten kind of coming in
and so we're in the lobby just kind of sitting there and I'm about to sleep through the checkout time. I just quickly pack up and I've forgotten kind of coming in and so we're in the lobby just kind of sitting there
and I'm like, I'm just kind of like, oh, man,
I had a really fun time last night.
Mum's like, oh, I'm glad it was fun for you
and just fucking rips into me.
I'm sitting there.
I'm 30 for fuck's sake.
I'm sitting in this hotel lobby just getting torn apart by my mum.
All these people are walking past just seeing this going,
what a fucking loser.
Like this fucking bald little man who's also dressed like a child
getting treated like one.
It was one of the most fucking humiliating nights of my whole life.
Just fucking no good.
Yeah.
No good at all.
I had a big blow up with my family coming back the last time.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
But not during the holiday.
In the airport. Oh of course. Like
coming home. Enough's enough.
So just a big one just a bit before
we get on the plane to come back to Melbourne.
It's like oh wow. This is
what a ridiculous place to have it. You came so
but that's it. But that's kind of it's like
you know if you really need to go to the toilet and then you get home
and once you can see the toilet your body just
goes this is it. It's sort of like that. it's like you go well whatever we're near the end
here yeah but so my defense was like they were pretty they were really shitty and i'm like well
you know what back in melbourne i'm doing this stuff every other night like and you just have
no idea about it wrong defense because then they're like are you genuinely an alcoholic so
then every every beer that i got was under intense scrutiny. They're like, do you really need one with lunch, do you?
And I'm like, all right.
Which is one reason why we wanted to do the podcast.
Tommy, here are your parents.
It's intervention time.
I'm drinking a beer with lunch and I go, I'm on holiday.
My dad goes, your life's a fucking holiday.
Yeah, you've got, instead of the fucking breakfast cereal larder,
you've just got a beer larder out there that you're trying to get through. Yeah, you've got – instead of the fucking breakfast cereal larder, you've just got a beer larder out there that you're trying to get through.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, my dad – so my dad was just walking around constantly talking
about how crazy it was that we bombed the Japanese.
Like striking – using it to strike up conversation with locals going,
oh, it's so crazy how nice you guys are to us given, you know –
And also – It wasn't us. the expiry date of Hiroshima.
Yeah.
Also, I like we.
It's like, you know, white people.
No, the all sops.
Did your dad fly the plane?
Did you bomb someone when you were drunk that night?
Yeah.
So that was tense.
But, yeah, it was just – it was mostly really good.
But there's just so much, like, fucking – Japan is, like, great
and it's very easy to get around.
It's not conducive to dawdling.
So there was just a lot of, like – so we'd go through a gate
in the subway station.
I'd get them their tickets.
I'd go, okay, there's a gate up there.
Hold on to the tickets.
You'll need them in a second to go through the gate.
We get to the gate.
Everything has to be filed away immediately.
So it's, you know, suddenly the fucking tickets are right down the bottom
of Dad's bum bag.
He's fishing around.
People are fucking knocking them out of the way.
I'm like, just keep the fucking tickets in your hand.
It's non-stop.
I'm on the other side of the gate.
I'm getting pushed along in the stream of people.
It's me going, just hold on to your fucking tickets.
We'll lose them.
You won't fucking lose them.
Anyway, one day we're walking around Kyoto.
I lose my fucking bullet train pass.
So then they're like, yeah, you see.
And yeah, not a good scene.
Who's worse, your mum or dad?
What, kissing?
Hey.
No, like who can get you to like react quicker?
Oh, definitely dad.
Like you turned into a child more.
Definitely dad.
Like so they're all very helpful over there.
Like you go to a train station, you're like we want to get here
and they'll give you like a printed out sheet of instructions,
go to this station, get on this line, all in English.
And so I'm like, great.
We'd get halfway through.
We'd stop at a station.
Dad would look out the window and go, yeah, I recognise that name.
Let's get off here.
I reckon we can get there going here.
I'm like, oh, maybe we can here but we definitely can if we follow the instructions that the
person who works at the station gave to us.
And he's like, nah, nah, we'll get off here.
So we get off.
We're on another line.
We end up fucking back where we started and Dad's just like, oh, well, can't win them
all.
And that fucking just sets me right.
That's what fucking gets me. And then I'm like, and this is after a day of mum going like, come on, we can't win them all, and that fucking just sets me right off. That's what fucking gets me.
And then I'm like, and this is after a day of mum going like,
come on, we can't dawdle.
Like, I've gotten in trouble for sleeping in.
It's like, come on, we've got a lot to get through today.
And then I'm going off going, just fucking follow the instructions.
How hard is it?
And then mum's going, oh, don't yell at him.
And then I'm like, oh, yeah, cool.
I'm the bad guy.
I'm fucked.
Put me in the bin
I'm so tensing up
Oh this is not
Bad boy Tommy
In Japan
With his delicate
Little parents
I know
I was telling a friend
When I got back
And my friend was like
You just sound like
The biggest fucking brat
And I'm like
Oh I had a great time
But the fact of the matter
Is travelling around
With two people
Who are nearly 70,
one of whom is 69, who happen to be related to you is just – it's exhausting.
It is.
Yeah, you just automatically become 14.
Yeah, totally.
It doesn't matter what age.
Yeah.
Or you become the parent.
Totally.
Like the big fight that we had that kicked off, I had a big fight with my dad
as we were coming home from Thailand the last time,
which came off because of this.
We're coming through the, not customs or I'm not sure.
Yeah, security.
We're coming through security, right?
And we all go, there's three of us,
there's four of us, three of us go through the same one
and we all go straight through.
My dad lines up behind ten people.
And so we're through waiting and he's just standing there behind ten people.
And they're two along, there is no one.
And we're sitting there waiting going, oh, this is insane.
And I go, dad.
And then I go, oh, fuck, well, there's no yelling dad in an airport.
So then I go.
Everybody just goes, yes.
And again, talking about how it makes you feel like a child again
Being in a public space and calling out mum
Just makes you feel like you're fucking three
Yeah so instead of that I go
Robert Chandler
And then he looks up and I'm like
Just there
And point over and I'm like just there And he looks up and then looks over there And then sort of up and I'm like, just there. And point over and I'm like, just there.
And he looks up and then looks over there and then sort of slowly goes over there
and goes through, straight through.
And then meet up with him five minutes later and then he goes off his guts at me.
Really?
I'm like, what's all this about?
It just goes me, goes through the throat.
And I'm like, where's all this come from?
You trying to tell me what to do and all. And I'm like, where's all this come from? You trying to tell me what to do.
And I'm like, what?
You yelling out my name. I'm like, what am I
supposed to do? This is filling in a lot
of the blanks about why you are the way you are.
Oh, no, no. Just
insane. Like,
you're behind ten people.
Two aisles along, there's
no one. I'm just telling you to do the
common sense thing.
Oh, man, he went off his head.
Well, this actually plays into, I was thinking this recently.
If you're ever like, you know, if you're at a cafe and you're catching up
with a friend and you're telling them about like, you know,
say you're having a problem with a friend or something
or like some drama that's going on in your life,
if it's crowded enough and you know that,
if there's someone sitting near you by themselves
and you know that they're like eavesdropping
Which I know Anne you're a big fan of the old eavesdrop
Like when you overhear other people's
Like dramas in their life
They sound fucking brain dead
Like they sound like this guy was standing near me
At a place the other day and he was talking to his friend
And he was going yeah it was just fucked
Because like you know he comes around
And it's like I know
And it's like pretty obvious that all he wanted
to do was watch the footy and, like, then he leaves and he's all in a half
and I was, like, saying to him, I was texting him afterwards, like,
why didn't you say that you just wanted to watch the footy?
Like, it's obvious that all you wanted to do was watch the footy
and that's fine but, like, you know, we wanted to do other stuff
but you just wanted to watch the footy and I wanted to interrupt
and go, you sound like a fucking idiot.
Like, do you know what I mean?
Like, imagine overhearing that, like, argument about standing behind ten people.
They're generally pretty shit arguments, though, aren't they?
Totally.
Like, the problems are pretty meaningless.
Except for not being able to find discount cornflakes.
Yeah.
I heard a good one the other day, which was I was in a Hungry Jack's
and I was behind two ladies that definitely do not frequent Hungry Jacks or anything of its ilk.
How could you tell?
Because of their next question.
All right.
Which was to the girl behind the counter,
do you guys sell chips?
Maybe she was winking because she wanted wet ass chips.
Oh, yeah.
Like, do you sell chips?
What are you even doing going into a Hungry Jack's if you don't know that they sell chips?
That's crazy.
And how do you be, if you've been in line, I take it was reasonably busy.
No, no, no.
Really?
They were the only people in the store apart from me.
But there's pictures of chips everywhere.
There's nothing worse than when people are consulting the menu.
Because we all don't want to be, it's all shame that we're all in there.
And if someone's up there going, oh, what's that up there?
You're like, just get on with it.
Someone's going to see me.
It's a long chicken burger, is it?
How long?
How do they do that?
Two.
You get two of them.
One with hot sauce.
How hot is that?
Oh, I'm having flashbacks.
This is me two weeks in Japan because they don't – you know, my parents don't –
How are they with the food anyway?
They were pretty – this is the annoying thing.
I'm like, I want to look up what's meant to be great.
I'm happy to travel for like an hour to get like, you know,
something that's meant to be like the best of a certain type of food
or whatever.
Dad wants to walk for five minutes and then just have fucking whatever.
Like he doesn't care.
It's fuel.
Who gives a shit?
So there was a lot of times of just sitting there eating.
Him in the stationary shop.
Yeah.
Eating paper, fueling up.
There's a lot of times of him just us sitting there eating a fucking ham sandwich and me
going, oh, well, this is a great Japanese experience.
This is what I would have.
Because this was a big part of the, I think, the fuel of the argument with my dad.
This is the most we've ever bonded over anything.
This and Mad Magazine are the only two things we really have in common.
This is part of the
big argument with me
and my dad
is I think he got
his back up
because we would go
every meal would go out
and he'd go
right what's the most
Aussie thing on the menu
have you got a hamburger
have you got
oh actually
even that's a bit
Asian for me
can I get seven eggs
that have coated
a kangaroo
that's half Jimmy Barnes.
Have you got a slice of Uluru that I could eat?
Yeah, so he would get whatever and I'd go, you're not having that.
What you're going to have is a curry or a stir fry or something.
You're in Thailand, you can't, like it was a game of him to evade all the Asian things
on the menu to find the most Aussie thing on the menu.
And it was just driving me crazy.
You can't flow nine hours over here and just eat what you could have at the Mirabie thing on the menu. And it was just driving me crazy. I'm like, you can't flow nine hours over here
and just eat what you could have at the Maribor train station.
Yeah.
I left my parents alone one night to get dinner by themselves
because they don't like ramen and I love ramen.
Oh, ramen's the best.
And I was like, you know what, so buy your fucking selves.
I'm going and getting ramen.
And they go and I find them.
They text me.
They're like, we're at this place.
I go and find them and they're in a Chinese restaurant. And I'm like, and they're like, we're at this place. I go and find them and they're in a Chinese restaurant.
And I'm like, and they're like, yeah, so it turns out this place is Chinese.
I'm like, yeah.
And mum goes, oh, how did you just know immediately that it was Chinese?
I'm like, the music that's playing, the food that you're eating,
the decor of the place, there's Chinese characters out the front.
I'm pretty sure underneath those Chinese characters there's English words that
say Chinese restaurant and they're like
wow you've really got to keep your wits about you don't you?
This place is called the
Golden Chinese Emperor Dragon.
We were on a train
one day. This is Tiananmen Square
food court.
What other clothes do you need? This is called
the Ronnie Chang Pantry.
This is another point where I nearly blew up.
We were on, so some of the trains there, they have women only carriages.
Oh.
Now we're talking.
Women in trains.
Getting in on one of those carriages.
Hey, couple of shields for me.
Waiting for a bloody bit of few negs.
Everyone just let him go for a little while.
Let's see where this ends up.
So yeah, it pulled up and we nearly got on.
I'm like, oh, Dad, we've got to get on the other one.
And he's like, well, we get on and doors close.
And he's like, what was that?
I'm like, they have women-only carriages on some of the trains here.
And Dad goes, oh, yeah, that's actually really good.
Because I had this friend of mine, she used to say she'd be on the train
and it'd be really packed and there'd be men up against her and all of a sudden
she'd feel, and then he acts it out on me.
He goes, she'd feel a bit of this. He just
starts honking me on my little
tit, on my little breast.
And like, so imagine
Did your dad then have to get his
own carriage after that?
Imagine you're on your way to work
and two foreigners get
on, speaking a language that you don't understand,
and then the one who is very clearly the parent
just starts grabbing the younger one on the chest.
I was like, can you?
And I hit him.
I'm like, can you fuck off?
Just molest your son on the train in Japan.
Fuck.
We're going to do it somewhere.
Have you ever travelled in Asia, Edo?
Yes. Where have you been? What's the checklist? I've been to Japan. Yep. We're going to do it somewhere Tommy Titty Have you ever travelled in Asia, Edo?
Yes Where have you been?
What's the checklist?
I've been to Japan
Yep
Went there a couple of years ago with my ex-boyfriend
Was he your ex-boyfriend then?
Yeah
Oh, he was
Yeah, okay
Yeah, we like to go travelling together
Yeah
So you're still
You're still in touch?
Yeah
Oh, great
Been travelling lately?
No, we haven't travelled lately
But yeah, we went to Japan together for two weeks
It was gross I loved it
Yeah
But before that I've been to Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia
The first place I ever went overseas was Thailand
When I was like 19
Oh really?
Yeah yeah yeah
Like just dropped in the middle of Bangkok as a 19 year old
Group of mates
By yourself?
No no no
Three other girls.
Right.
And we just had this like wild.
Get crazy.
Fuck yeah.
Like a lot of drinking, a lot of dangerous behaviour really in hindsight.
Yeah.
Really.
Drinking over there just in general, like I went to Phi Phi Island,
which is like a big party island.
And on one side it's like pretty chill and really beachy
and then on the other side it's just like full party times.
But then you hear all the stuff about you know them like
all the dodgy, like what are they, the bucket
drinks? I cannot
believe anyone is game enough to
drink that. Yeah and the drugs
like I think they took drugs.
What did you take? I don't know, like some sort of
some sort of speed or something.
I don't know. They got those magic mushroom shakes
as well. But like in hindsight what the fuck, what were we doing? something. I don't know. They got those magic mushroom shakes as well. Yeah, yeah. In hindsight, what the fuck?
What were we doing?
Yeah.
Like just, you know.
That's how people end up in prison in a mini skirt and a boob tube going, oh, no.
I feel that way about the first Saturday night I had in Japan two weeks ago.
What was I thinking?
Why are we wearing a mini skirt?
When was the last time I wore a boob tube in Tokyo?
I was driving Dad wild. I wonder if he's honking
Walking around Japan
Like uncovered men
You should have gone
On the women only carriage
People who sound
Like women only
I would love to get into this
Because we talk about
Because I've been to Thailand a lot
Because I talk about it a lot
I get hit up a lot
By people on social media and stuff
About people going
Yeah, yeah, well you talk about it so much
It sounds so good
I'm going to do it
I'm going to go
Inspired by Chandler
Yeah
I got to
And then I go
Automatically my brain goes to
I should hit up the Thailand tourism board
Yeah
And see if I can get a sweet, you know, channel to us.
Well, because the other thing that's funny that people deciding to go
based on you talking about it on this podcast is that you, like,
you obviously love it because you talk about going back there so often.
But then, you know, the only actual stories that you tell about it,
what's interesting?
Bad stuff.
So it's you spewing or you being there with your parents
Stupid stuff happening
Just bad stuff happening to you
Which then makes you say, oh it's so good
It's like, how bad's his normal life?
Because that's a good holiday
I went over there and shat myself
Best holiday ever
I've been backed up back in Australia for nine months
Couldn't do a shit, get over there
Have one fucking chicken wing on the street
There's like Aussies that go over there and do things like they host
like the drunk cruise, I think.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
The drunk cruise where you basically go out in a boat
and they just bring a bunch of slabs out and you get drunk
out in the middle of the ocean or whatever it is.
So I should do one of them but a Chandler reality tour.
Go there and host all the stories that have come from Thailand.
Yeah.
Is that really a tour you can do?
Yeah. Like the slabs. Yeah. It's not slabs. It's heavier liquor than that. all the stories that have come from Thailand from me. Is that really a tour you can do? Oh,
yeah.
Like the slabs.
It's not slabs.
It's heavier liquor than that.
But it's slabs as well, yeah.
Is it that Samsung whiskey?
Samsung's a television
made for it.
Samsung?
Yeah, I know what you're saying.
It's like that
real cheap whiskey
you can get at 7-Elevens
that they put into buckets.
Yeah, yeah.
They're like the buckets
where you were talking about.
It doesn't sound like
there's a lot of drinking
responsibly going on. No. Man, I remember being in Copenhagen at the full moon party. Yeah, yeah. They're like the buckets where you were talking about. It doesn't sound like there's a lot of drinking responsibly going on.
No.
Man, I remember being in Copenhagen at the full moon party
and it just being so hectic.
People fucking in the water and like jumping through rings of fire
ineffectively and lighting their hands on fire.
After they've been fucking?
Well, like as they're fucking.
Yeah, my friends, I've got a couple of mates that went to Thailand before me.
This is the ridiculous thing because I've been to Japan.
That was the first place I ever went overseas.
I went to Japan but I went there instead of going to Thailand.
I knocked back Thailand for my first ever trip.
Some of my very good friends went there and went, come with me.
I went, nah.
So they would tell me stories after that that were all these great stories of being in Thailand,
including, like you saying, Copenhagen.
They went to a full moon party
and everyone's off their heads and whatever.
Crazy, yeah.
And then there was this guy near them that just went,
that's it, I can't handle it anymore.
I can't deal with it in my head anymore.
I've got to finish this.
And runs out into the ocean and just tries to drown himself.
And my friends go, oh, wow, I've got to go and help him.
And they grab him and drag him back and then immediately he goes, no,
and runs out, jumps in there and they go, oh, fuck, grab him.
Then he goes, oh, okay, I'm okay now.
No, I'm not.
And then runs out again and they go, no, we can't be fucked anymore.
If you're going to do it three times, we helped you twice.
And again, you hearing this and going, I've got to go there someday.
You could just kill yourself.
People only try to stop you three times.
Yeah, here I've got no mates.
No one will stop me.
That's the thing that stuck with me though because I go, yeah,
three times is not a charm.
We didn't do it.
So what happened to the guy?
I don't know.
We didn't chase him.
Oh, fuck.
So we flew Jetstar there and back and so, you know,
you're not getting a meal on there
Unless you pay for it
Or whatever
So my parents were
You know my parents got snacks
And stuff like that
You know you see a lot of people
Kind of bringing out their own
Foods on the plane
Which I guess
I just wait
Because it's not that long of a flight
Like who cares
Tiny little tidbit in the middle there
Flying Jetstar
I went to Thailand by Jetstar once
I went with my girlfriend
Maddened me
Because the whole point It's just like the $1.90 cornflakes The whole point of getting Jetstar I went to Thailand By Jetstar once I went with my girlfriend Maddened me Because the whole point
It's just like the
$1.90 cornflakes
The whole point of getting Jetstar
To go there
Is it's a cheap flight
Right
You get it
Crazy cheap
So we go there
I get on there
I go great
At least you know
I've got that feeling
Of having a bargain
Made
We're sitting there
Then we get the food
We get the food
And the fucking iPad out there
I'm like what
Are we getting this
And my girlfriend's like
Yeah I bought that I'm like, what? Are we getting this? And my girlfriend's like, yeah, I bought that. I'm like,
that's, you just paid as much
as we paid for the flight.
So they're just infuriated because we
paid all that money for the, and then we get the food.
It's the worst fucking food in the world. It's like $40.
Yeah. You get $40 for a
fucking horrible food and then you get
an iPad that came out, had
three movies in it, and two of them
were Iron Man 2.
Sounds like a great relaxing time for her.
Do you know how many fucking pad ties you could get for 40 bucks?
Exactly.
About 80.
Exactly.
About 90 pad ties.
Honestly, I felt like running out in the ocean and necking myself up.
So, you know, we're on the plane and, you know,
some people bring their own snacks on, whatever.
Some people are fine to just buy the stuff.
Two women sitting next to me, two Japanese women,
they open up their bags and they pull out two full corn on the cob.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
I've never seen – yeah, wrapped – I couldn't get an idea of temperature.
I wasn't close enough.
Glad wrapped.
Glad wrapped.
Yeah.
Glad wrapped corn on the cob.
Glad wrapped corn on the cob.
It must have been cold then if it was glad wrapped.
It's one of the weirdest things I've ever seen.
Foil, it would have been hot, right?
Foil?
Foil, yeah, that's why I asked.
Couldn't get it through security though.
Yeah, surely you're not getting that through security.
No, they might have had it up their arse.
I've got pigs in there.
That wasn't glad wrapped, that was a condom.
But that's one of the...
That's coming from Melbourne, yeah?
No, no, this is on the way back.
Oh, okay.
Well, that makes a little bit more sense.
Maybe.
Does it, Carl?
Why is that?
Because they have corn on the cob in Japan.
Hey!
Somebody knows their country.
Were they on a stick or were they just like nibble hands?
Yeah, so everything's wrong.
It's a messy dish.
Yeah, it's really messy.
It's not like it's the most – you're not eating some corn and going,
oh, I am stuffed.
Like it's a side at best.
Yeah, yeah.
It's a big undertaking for a few little –
Then you've got a free cob.
You've just got this cob that you've got to fucking deal with on the plane.
Yeah, yeah.
Plane cob.
How much do you love corn that you're not having just anything else?
Yeah.
It was mind-blowing.
If you love corn, you love the cob.
That's how it works.
Maybe they ate the cob.
Maybe they ate the whole cob, yeah.
Yeah.
A few calories in the cob.
Eat the cob, you dog.
Maybe there was something smuggled in the cob.
Yeah, maybe.
Maybe they were using the cob to, like, you know, bring stuff back in.
Did you guys ever do this where –
Who knows, cobber?
Do you do this now where you try to see how much stuff
you can sneak into the movies?
Because all cinemas are in shopping centres.
You go to the supermarket.
I want to talk about something.
Oh, okay.
Well, this corn on the cob thing,
this reminded me of one of the great sneak ins I've seen.
I was at the movies once and a guy in the cinema had bought in a full curry,
just a fucking like a butter chicken or whatever.
I've done a full roast.
You can name him.
Dilruba Jaisi.
Hey.
And like full, like pungent, stunk out the whole cinema.
Yeah, it's excellent.
And not something that's good to eat on the lap.
Just no good.
I've done a whole roast chicken.
Have you really?
Yeah, I took a whole roast chicken in.
What?
Yeah.
What did you watch?
It was ages ago.
It was like 10 years ago.
Wow.
That's great that you remember.
I remember the chicken, not the movie.
But not the movie.
I've got my priorities straight.
Were you alone or with a friend?
We used to see how much we could get in.
So we got like one of those mud cakes that you get from Coles and a chicken.
I remember me and a friend sneaking when we were in high school.
Both of us sneaking a full large meal from Oporto's into the cinema.
That's great.
And feeling like we'd just won everything.
You're the champions.
You're the heroes.
It feels so good sneaking hip food.
What did you want to talk about?
I went to somewhere I've never, ever been before
and I'm never, ever going again.
Oh, wow.
Last week.
And that's Gold Class.
Oh.
That's the worst.
Right.
The worst.
Why is it so bad?
Gold Class Cinema?
It's really expensive.
Well, a friend of mine had a voucher.
My ex-boyfriend.
Oh.
Yay.
And it was like, it was just, you don't need nachos brought in. Sounds like someone needs to check their privilege just a little bit, Anne.
It's disgusting.
Because you can sort of ask for them to bring stuff at specific times.
So you get there and it's like going into the Qantas lounge or something.
They're like, welcome.
And you're already like, oh, I want to kill myself.
And then they like sit down and like,
and then they make you go through the menu and select things
that are going to be brought in throughout.
Oh, right.
And we had to spend like 70 bucks on top of the ticket.
So we're just like…
You have to spend that.
Well, when you've got a voucher, what are you going to do?
It's part of the voucher, right.
Oh, it's part of it, right.
I thought you meant like you have to not only buy the ticket
but then there's like a minimum, there's like a five-trip minimum or whatever.
So we're like nachos, fish tacos.
Oh, yeah.
Wine.
And it's at specific times?
Yeah.
At every 20 minutes, I would like potato skins.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
At 45 minutes, please bring a bedpan.
Yes.
I would need to pee.
And there's no good movies there.
So we're watching Sully.
Right.
Oh, mate, he's a bloody hero.
I don't know.
Fucking hell.
As soon as that plane hits the ocean, give me a pizza.
No, bring in the fish taco then. So it's like a four-dimensional experience. As soon as that plane hits the ocean, give me a pizza.
Bring in the fish taco then.
So it's like a four-dimensional experience.
Every time Tom Hanks looks distressed, come in and slap me in the face.
But then they like scurry in with the stuff and it's like distressed and then everyone starts crunching.
I did a similar thing on a voucher where, yeah,
like I found it really good before the movie started.
Great, we're having drinks, we're having something to eat.
But then, you know, yeah, you've got to take advantage of it
and it's kind of like someone comes and interrupts you
during the movie and you can see them go into other people's seats.
Also, I was putting my seat back and it kept squeaking.
Like every time I would move it, it would go, eee.
And I get the guy over, I'm like, hey, is there something I can do
about the seat because it's like it's making a really loud noise every time I move it.
He's like, no, we can't do anything about it.
And I'm like, can I just move seats?
Can I just move to another seat then?
And he's like, you're here on the voucher, yeah?
And I'm like, yeah.
And he goes, no, we can't move you.
So I had to just sit in this fucking busted seat for the whole film.
And we had salted caramel popcorn.
I've never felt so crook in my life.
And the movie was the worst.
I hated it.
That's not Gold Class' fault.
It is Gold Class'.
It's just a bad concept.
You should have taken it to the next level where you said,
I want nachos every 30 seconds.
It is kind of like in principle, it's an like kind of like basic desire, isn't it?
If the movie was so bad you should have gone,
I want Rotten Tomatoes 20 minutes in.
Boom, boom, boom.
At five minutes I want a different movie.
Yeah.
Imagine, yeah, but imagine thinking about the kind of person that,
you know, like the person that is obsessed with Gold Class.
Oh, fuck, imagine going to the movies and you just get booze brought to you
and you get food for free.
Fuck, you're in a big comfy chair.
Be fucking sick.
Entourage is up on the screen.
Fucking there's no other way to do it.
Mate, next Star Wars, Gold Class, already booked it.
Can't fucking wait.
Locked in, me and the boys going in.
Drinks at O'Brien's next door before we get into it.
I used to love going to the Hoyts version of it at Chadston
because they have their nicer version but it's just up the very back upstairs
of the regular version.
And there would be a thing where on Tuesdays everything's cheaper
so this like kind of gold class version becomes the price of just a normal ticket.
So me and my rat bag 15-year-old mates would go up
and just get absolutely blind on, you know, coke and popcorn
and throwing it around the cinema, which, you know,
everyone who's trying to watch it down below you is just going like,
wow, these little cunts on school holidays are just fucking it for everyone.
Did you ever have the all-night sessions?
Yeah.
Like a marathon kind of one?
Yeah, movie marathons.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you ever go to those ones? I think I did once, yeah. Yeah. I a marathon kind of one. Yeah, movie marathons. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did you ever go to those ones?
I think I did once, yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't know whether that was a – they definitely had them in Ballarat.
I didn't know whether that was a –
No, they had that when I was a kid too.
Right.
Or a teenager.
Because that was not an environment suitable to actually watching movies.
No, no.
That's for fingering.
That's it.
How many calories did that?
Fingering marathon.
All my fingering.
Be some pruney fingers at the end of that.
That's what you want, 20 minutes into Gold Class.
If I could just have a fingering 20 minutes.
20 minutes into Sully, if someone could come out and just stick a digit right up me.
Bring the fleshlight out.
I'd like a triple digit up my court at 20 minutes.
As soon as that plane hits the Hudson,
I want that finger to hit my arsehole.
Does the Crazy Horse Cinema have gold class?
Very good question.
Extremely good question.
Someone, some entrepreneurial young,
I'm going to say probably man, must have set that up.
Yeah, surely.
Set up a gold class porno cinema.
What would you get?
Yeah, you'd get presented your own fleshlight.
Yeah.
You'd get a bit of food, I guess.
Fish taco.
Yeah.
Some things are the same.
You'd have to get the food first, I guess.
Would you?
Why?
Well, because it's all leading up to someone coming out
and doing something to you, I would presume.
Oh, yeah.
You'd buy a free man for his lab.
Somebody needs some food, just use a bit of carbon, my friend.
A lot of calories.
Check the pantry.
We've got to find out if this exists.
The jizz cupboard.
I've got a feeling that it would exist,
but it probably is not going to be advertised, surely,
unless it's in a country where something like that would be legal.
But is there countries like that?
I don't know.
It would just be you'd get a sex worker and watch a movie.
Yeah.
At the same time. Yeah. Just in a hotel just be a, you'd get a sex worker and watch a movie. Yeah. At the same time.
Yeah.
Just in a hotel.
Just go to gold class
with a sex worker.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Stop going on about it.
Now suck my dick
every ten minutes.
Yeah,
what if you're in gold class
and you think it's just like
international waters
so you're just there
getting a handjob
and they're like,
asking you to leave
and you're like,
whoa,
I fucking paid 80 bucks
for this.
Mate,
bring me my nachos
and shut up. And it's like, and I haven't even paid for her. I figured you, you'll be like, well, I fucking paid 80 bucks for this. Mate, bring me my nachos and shut up.
And it's like, and I haven't even paid for her.
I figured you guys would pick up the tab.
You're the gold class.
Well, on that note, we've got to wrap this podcast up
because I think we all know what we're doing this afternoon.
Eating paper?
Going to gold class.
Oh, I thought we were going to eat.
Never again am I going there.
Yeah.
Banned.
I've banned myself. That's a sign of like
I figure Gold Class
Is really only something
You should go to
If you've got it for free
Yes
You copped it for free
Still bad
And you still hated it
Yeah
You didn't watch a good movie though either
Nah
Well there's no good movies at Gold Class
Isn't there
It's all the worst movies
Oh they just keep shitty movies
For Gold Class
Yeah yeah
Or it's just that
Bogans want to watch Sally
They're all like Oh oh, fucking hell.
What a hero.
Who's a fucking hero, mate?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's your problem?
I want to see you land one in the Yarra.
What's your problem, eh?
He saved everyone.
He fucking saved them.
Tom Hanks can fly.
Come and see some guy land a plane in the Yarra.
Sallow. Walking past the Birdman R a plane in the Yarra Sallow.
Walking past the Birdman Rally.
Oh, fucking what a bunch of heroes.
This is great.
I fucking love Moomba.
It's so inspiring. Oh, fuck.

Bart Freeman and Edmunds, thank you very much for joining us.
Thank you.
Thanks, mate.
Have you guys got things that you would care to plug coming up?
Nah!
You'll have a series on iview starting up soon,
sometime in the near future.
The Edge of the Bush, so keep an eye out for that.
We'll give that a real hot plug when it comes out.
And Edmund's in The Edge of the Bush.
Yeah, sure.
It'll be out soon.
I don't know when.
Have a preview screening at Gold Class.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, mate.
I'll have nachos and watch that.
Yeah.
To be honest, it sounds like something you could have a gold class
at the Crazy Horse, the edge of the bush.
If you know what I'm saying.
He's edging.
If you can just every 20 seconds, if you just can come in and touch the edge of my bush
that would really help me out.
I'm waiting for Edo's follow up series, Penetrating the Bush.
Balls deep in the bush.
Going around behind the bush anyway.
Bart, what have you got?
I've got my new iview series, To the Base of the Bush.
Just go to my website, bartlaw.com.
It's got all my jizz on it.
And you've got your podcast with friend of the show, Demi Lardner,
We Are Not Doctors.
We Are Not Doctors.
Yeah.
And that's about it.
Cool.
I'll be a gold class if you need me.
We've got Adelaide in six days,
so get off your little fannies and buy tickets to that.
We've got Perth coming up.
We've got Perth on October the 30th.
It's a three-hour show, all that sort of stuff,
so get on to Perth, pick up your game, get some tickets in.
And as we talked about last week, Melbourne is officially on sale.
November 12th, doing two big ones back-to-back
and then a fucked-up stand-up show somewhere in there in between or at the end.
That's it, double episode and then fucked up stand-up show afterwards.
So we've never done something like that.
Gary Chook, Bogan Baby.
Bringing Back the Pyjamas.
Bringing Back the Pyjamas.
Me and Carl's double act.
Our double act improv group, the most fuckedest cunts in the universe.
Are we officially naming that?
Alright, cool.
So it's just you guys doing different acts?
No, no.
There'll be a few other people as well.
Other people.
Me and Josh Earl are going to do our one time only double act.
The cheeseburgers.
We're going to bring that back for one night only.
If you guys have got any ideas.
If you guys have got stupid ideas.
Okay.
Yeah, right.
Okay.
I'll go blackface for it.
You should. Alright. If you're a Okay. I'll go blackface for it. You should.
All right.
If you're a police
don't come to the show.
Carl bringing back
the pyjamas and Bart
bringing back the blackface.
Just put your money
where your mouth is
really I say.
If it's fucked up
let's go.
Let's go deep.
Guys, thanks very much
for joining us
and we'll see you next time.
See you mates.
Bye.
