Welcome back to another edition of What's New and Happening in the Little Dum Dum Club with me, Tommy, and my co-host, Carl. Welcome. Is this like the Brand Power bit of Little Dum Dum Club? Yes, exactly like we said the last time we did this. Oh, really? Yeah, we made that reference already. Oh, fuck. I wish I listened to this show. It sounds good. It is pretty good, yeah. What's your favourite bit about it so far?

Just thinking of the Brand Power. The Brand Power! The Brand Power lady. Hey, you know what? It's these Brown power. The brown power lady. Hey, you know what? It's these troubling times. Yeah, brown power. Yeah, sure. I'm with that.

I'm on that side of things. I want to be on the right side of history, sure. I'm on that side of things. Wow, what a chant. The right side. Yeah, the right side of things. So you're on the right. No, the correct side, I mean.

It's a bloody, language is tricky, isn't it? Isn't it? I'll tell you what's not tricky, though. Selling tickets in Adelaide. We are doing a live podcast in Adelaide. What's that, on March Saturday? March the 4th, yep. For your convenience on a weekend.

It's on a later afternoon, I guess, 4 o'clock. 4pm. Yeah, double episode. Heaps and heaps of awesome special guests are in town for that of which we have confirmed some already. It's going to be two very, very good episodes. And then we're going to get on a plane and put our heinies back to Melbourne straight away, aren't we?

I don't know. I might stick around for a couple of days. Oh, okay. Neil Finn's playing a free show the next day. Oh, really? I wonder how many people are going to turn up to that. Don't fucking tell people that. It's the next day and it's free. I wonder how many people are going to turn up to that. Don't fucking tell people that in Adelaide.

It's the next day and it's free. How is that clashing with us in any way? Because they'll just go, Adelaide people go, we only need one form of entertainment that weekend. We'll fucking do that instead. But they're doing that. They don't need the free form of entertainment to not come out. They're like going, oh, I could have lunch in a week instead.

No, you're an idiot. I met an Adelaide guy last night that was like, oh, no, I'm not going to come because the fucking car racing's on that day. Yeah, but that's that day. Yeah, they're looking for any excuse is my point. I'm saying if you live in like regional South Australia, come into the city for the weekend, see us on the Saturday, see a free concert by Australia's favourite adopted son, Neil Finn.

We don't need any distractions. We need people to focus on our show. Why don't we try and get Neil Finn on this? Fuck. No, he'd be shit, I reckon. You reckon? He'd be no good. I like him, but I think he'd be no good in this context. Why don't we just try and get him in to sing a song? We don't talk to him. He just comes in and plays one of the hits and then fucks off. No, I like him.

His brother would be better, I reckon. You reckon? The other one that was in Split Ends. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Tim. Tim. Tim Finn would be better. Tim Finn would be better? No one knows who the fuck he is. Well, why don't we get him on together? How about we get neither of them? How about we get some of his fans to come to our show the day before? How about that? Sure.

So fly into Adelaide the day before the free Neil Finn concert and come and see us. So all those tickets, well, tickets to us, not to Neil Finn. I mean, you don't need tickets. It's a free event. We'll put a link on our page, though. LittleDumbDumbClub.com. Saturday, March the 4th. The unofficial after party on the Sunday afterwards. The free Neil Fink concert on the Riverbank.

I'm going to head down. Then we are doing shows throughout the whole month. Every Sunday in April in our hometown of Melbourne. But you're skipping Brisbane. We need to remind people we're doing shows in Brisbane. Well, it's sold out. I know, but you want to remind people to go. Because people can buy tickets and then go, oh, fuck, we forgot. Well, we've oversold it, so we want doing shows in Brisbane. Well, it's sold out. I know, but you want to remind people to go because people can buy tickets

and then go, oh, fuck, we forgot. Well, we've oversold it, so we want some people to forget. Okay, forget I said anything. Quick, what if we have concerts on the next day in Brisbane that you can promote? Brisbane people, go and see Neil Finn. Yes, Brisbane Saturday. God, we haven't promoted that in so long that I've forgotten the very exact date of it. It's the 18th.

Yes, you're correct. The 18th of March. Hey, your bar. Yeah, don't lose your tickets, guys. You've probably got them stuck to the fridge under a little magnet. We put a few extra ones on sale, so I'm not sure if anyone is really whining about missing out. I know we've stacked two shows absolutely full of people. So I don't know whether it's worth a try to come down.

You know, people always forget and people don't turn up and people, whatever. So if you're busting, busting for a ticket, it's worth turning up and if there's room, we'll let you in. Yes, excellent. And so then Sundays in April at the European Beer Cafe, we have live podcasts every week. A little residency, you could call it.

Yeah, and we do them and then straight after them every Sunday, we do our Melbourne International Comedy Festival solo shows. Yes. Straight after in the same venue. So we're doing the podcast at 3 p.m. every Sunday in April. Heaps of awesome guests. You know, if you've ever listened or been to the live shows in previous years, man, they are awesome.

There's heaps of cool people around. We've got some very big names already asking us to be on, which is heaps of fun. Neil Finn? No, I believe he's busy. I believe he's doing a free show somewhere else, a free podcast next door. So come and do that. And then they will sell out, so get on it. Heaps of people have bought season tickets already.

So get on it and then come and see our solo comedy festival shows. Like I said, straight afterwards in the same building. It's my show, Carl Chandler, world's best comedian in the world. I still haven't learned it. World's best comedian in the world. And then my show, Dinner for Three. Oh, I mean two two So go and do that Also we put on an extra show as well

We're doing the roast of Dilruch Jai Singer That's on a Friday night April the 14th April the 14th Alright alright alright So late night show Man that's going to get wild

Yep Just a reminder Some people are asking questions People who have bought the season passes Which are already excellent value For seeing the four live podcasts yes they're going oh do we get to see the

solo shows and the dual recroses yeah yeah can we come into your house and fuck you after the festival do we get a fucking um fifty dollar gift voucher with that as

well uh can we see neil finn in adelaide well yes that you can that if you turn up to that neil finn concert on saturday oh no sunday march the fifth with your little dum-d Club ticket, they will let you in.

Well, you know what? They probably won't. They'll probably say, no, that's the one clause. Let's look up every free event that's on in Melbourne across the next two months and start advertising it as like, if you buy tickets to our shows, you also get admission to that. I like it. Fed Square, you can just go any time.

All you need to do is purchase one of our tickets. Free admission to Myers every day. Get one of our tickets. You can go through the makeup department, whatever you want. Go down to the local. Fill your pockets up with lipstick. Yeah. Do whatever the fuck you want.

Go down to the park, pick up a handful of dirt. Free lunch just for having a ticket to our podcast. Free dog shit all around Melbourne and probably within our podcast. So tickets for that and our solo shows, which also if you don't want to just go on the Sundays, our comedy festival shows are on most nights of the festival, the back two weeks. The back two weeks.

Back two weeks of the festival, every night. It's literally we do a sneaky little preview on April 2nd straight after the first live podcast and then we go from April 9th all the way every day until April 23rd yes and I gotta say that first show I'm dreading it no I'm having to do my first show right after we have to spend the whole day organizing the podcast it's not gonna be fun I just

realized last night yeah anyway and usually considering my former live podcast I'm getting quite drunk and then going here's the first time I've ever done a show yep should be good but also yeah April 9 till the 23rd every night you are on at 8.15. Yes. And then I'm at 9.30 straight after in the same venue.

Tickets to all that stuff, littledumbdumbclub.com. Let's make a point of saying this. Now, we, I don't know if you guys have ever bought tickets to see anything in the world ever. Not Neil Finn, because you haven't paid for that. We are dealing with a ticket seller that there's no commission. There's no sort of – once you buy a ticket from us, there's no – you're not paying any $5, $10 extra fee on top of it.

I'll tell you this. I went to the tennis. I went to the Australian Open this year. Yep. The clowns down there at that big ticketing agency, wow, they're taking the fat cats in there at that agency. Look, I don't need to name who they are. They are the biggest ticket sellers.

There's two big ones and they both have ticket in the name. Yeah. I may not be talking about them. Okay, sure. Maybe talking about another one. I'm not. But fucking hell, if I was a journo, that's the first story I'd be going after.

Where the fuck do these cunts get off? That's what I want to know. Is this the headline of the story? Yes. AlJazeera.com, where the fuck do these cunts get off? And then what's your subheading? You know where they should get off? The fucking Westgate.

That's the subheading. You don't need to read the article after that. I've sort of covered it all. Yeah, it's like The Onion. You know, they're like full, but why would you go in and read the whole thing? You're getting the best jokes in the headline. Yeah, you get the best gag there in about eight words and then they stretch it out for 450. No thanks.

So anyway, give us the 450. What have you got? Oh, man. They're fucking turds. That's what they are. We are not affiliated with them this year which means which means if you want to go and see uh me or tommy you are paying a absolutely dandy fee to come and see us compared to a lot the majority of everyone else

that's doing a show at the same because they're with these big agencies and they have to they have to cover these insane costs these inside charges and stuff that they have and yeah it's not their fault they just happen to to have to deal with them. Whereas down here at the little Dundum Club, we pass the savings on to you. Oh, man. We are such a good deal compared to everyone else. Fuck we're good guys. We are the best.

We're not only the best, we are the cheapest. We are the NQR of shows happening. Yeah, that's not bad. We're like a battered tin of soup. Yeah. We're like, what's the other one? Aldi's. We're like Aldi's.

We're like the Aldi's of comedy shows. Actually, Aldi's a better comparison because NQR people just think that everything in there is shit. Well, that's a better comparison then. Well, yeah, but Aldi's like if we want to class it up, it's like it's just different. It's just a different version of good. It's an overseas version of good. We've just got all of our jokes like in the wrong order and all over the joint.

And on the way out of our show, you get a fucking jet ski and fucking some golf clubs. And a can of tuna. Oh, yuck. JokesAboutAldi.com. Yeah, you can make your own. They'll most likely be better than professional comedians or the same. They're tough ones. Oh, what about a joke about Ikea?

Why don't you put it together yourself? Oh, boom, I shot my head off. How inside baseball is this getting? Sorry, I'm getting a bit crazy about that ticketing agency. Okay, we've got to get into the Patreon. Thank you to everyone who is contributing on Patreon.com. It is a way that you can support the show. You chip in a little bit of money each month.

It helps us to keep this little shit show running. Oh, by the way, just before we do that, how about this? Just a tiny little teaser for the few people that listen to this bit before the regular bit. There's a bit of Thailand update going on inside the regular episode. Usually I'll put it here, but it's such good news that I want it to be in the guts of it so no one can get away from it. And this is rare for us. We're recording the ad before we've the regular episode. Usually I'll put it here, but it's such good news that I want it to be in the guts of it so no one can get away from it.

And this is rare for us. We're recording the ad before we've recorded the episode. Yes. We normally do these after, so you'd be able to go take a listen. Guys, you're putting all your eggs in one, but you're banking that you're going to be that starved for content in this episode that you're going to have to talk about some emails we extract. Yes.

Yes. That's the only thing I want to talk about. Yes. So fast forward it right now and get straight. No, don't do it. Listen to this bit. Keep an ear out. Don't sleep through the rest of the episode. Patreon, we've got to do this quickly because those aforementioned guests that we're about to do an episode with are minutes away from

turning up at my house. So Patreon, you can chip in. You can support the show for each different amount that you chip in. You get a little reward including your name read out at the start of this program. Yes. Who have we got to say thank you to this week, Carl? Let's do a quick couple, a quick few. Thank you to Patreon sponsor, subscriber, good person, Kit Allen.

Kit Allen. Kit. What's the name, Kit? Yeah, well, it's Knight Rider. Why wouldn't you like someone named after a talking car? For my generation, it's, do you remember the show, the series Tailspin? No. It was about, it was based on the Jungle Book.

It was all the characters in Jungle Book, but they wore clothes and they like all talked and like it was the bear from the Jungle Book running like a delivery service. And he had this little friend called Kit. Oh. It was this little orphan boy that he took under his wing. Is Kit short for something? Because it seems like it should be. I know, it should be, yeah.

I don't think it is, though. Oh, what a weird name. There was a point I went through in my life where I wished I was called Kit. Oh, really? Mm-hmm. I think when I was really little, I wanted to be called Richard, which was very silly. Dick Chandler.

Yeah. That's good. Yeah, not really. That's not bad. Not really. Dick Chandler. Dick Chan. G'day, Dick Chandler. Yeah. That's good. That's not bad. Not really. Dick Chandler. Dick Chan. G'day, Dick Chandler.

Oh, fuck. Imagine that being the best of anything you've done. Jesus. Well, I mean, for us, it was quick. It wasn't about cum. I mean, what more can you... It didn't veer off into a 30-minute discussion about fucking, you know, peanutminute discussion about fucking peanut butter or – we do a lot of condiment talk in this bit, I've noticed.

We could have done that on Breakfast Radio. That was a good one for us or just a solid one. All right, let's race through. Thank you to Staff Del Medo. Staff Del Medo. Or Del Medo. I'll tell you what – Let's go Del Medo.

Well, Medow would have been easier to work with. Oh, let's go Staff Del Medow. Well, I was going to go... I was more going to go like Staff, like... I had a bit of a Staff infection, but then this injection into my bank account has cleared it right up.

I was going to go with a bit of Golden Staff. With all the cash he is slinging us. Staff. Staff's a – I keep thinking it's a girl's name because I keep thinking it's Steph, but it's not Steph. It's Staff. It must be – that's short for something for sure. Yeah.

Cain and able to give us some fucking money. Oh, yeah. Very nice. Again, I've done it again. I can't tell if I've said that one before. Maybe we just have multiple Cains who support the show. We haven't done that one before. Okay.

I'm sure we haven't. I did a search. I'm sure we haven't done it. And even if we have, fuck ites who support the show. We haven't done that one before. Okay. I'm sure we haven't. I did a search. I'm sure we haven't done it. And even if we have, fuck it, good on this guy. Just check how much money he's given us. Oh, really? Okay, he deserves a couple of shout-outs, does he? Sure.

Oh, well, let's say I'm good at my job, and that's the first one. Okay. Yeah, I know you're generally good at most jobs you do. I've seen your note-keeping process for this, and I've got to say, I definitely see how things can slip through the cracks. It's good now. Early days it wasn't good, and that's why things have slipped through the cracks. Exactly.

So we're now dealing with the repercussions of not having a good bookkeeping system early. Yes, there's still a bit of cleaning up. Yes. And let's do one more. Let's do one last one. One quick. Okay, last one is One quick. Okay.

Last one is, oh, God, again, weird, unusual name. Anyway, I hope I'm pronouncing all this correctly. Yep. Ticket. First name Ticket. Yes. Last name Master Go Fuck Yourself. So that's the full name there That sounds

It's weird that someone Has their title In the middle of their name What do you mean? So shouldn't it be like Ticket go fuck yourself But then Like they're a young man

And so to shorten it It's like Master Master go fuck yourself Like they're You know like they're They're royal or something That's not a title though

That's just the full name So master is in the name Yeah yeah That's the full last name That'd be like If the name. Yeah, yeah. That's the full last name. That'd be like if your name was like Mr. You know? Carl Mr. Chandler. I feel like this name's weird enough for you to try and think of another weird name.

Sorry that Ticket, Master Go Fuck Yourself, isn't weird enough for you. Oh, yeah. If your name's Master Go Fuck Yourself, don't call your kid Ticket. Thanks, Ticket. Anyway, thanks, Ticket. Thanks for finally chucking some corn back our way. Any journos out there, if you're going to do this, if you're going to go digging up dirt in these big ticket companies, mention us in the story.

Yeah, we broke it. Mention us as the whistleblowers. We broke it for the geniuses to finally go, this is too much. Seven bucks to print it off at home. That's not good, I reckon. Oh, man. What a fucking rort. We're like the deep throat of Ticketgate. We're like the deep throat of sex.

Thanks, Deep. Do you like my Richard Nixon impression? We're going to blow this case wide open and our load. Yay. Well, Watergate, more like Westgate. We've done it again. All right. We've done it again Alright so patreon.com slash little dumdum club Or you can find all those links

Yeah all the tickets and stuff we've talked about Our solo shows You're welcome for all the references to 70s political drama in America Little dumdum club.com for all that information Yeah stay tuned to this episode for an update on the Koh Samui podcast. Sorry, the Koh Samui International Podcast Festival. Is that right? Well, yeah.

I mean, well, you know, we're international guests of the festival. Yeah. We're festival directors and we're bringing ourselves out for it. That's good conflict of interest. I love it. There's a lot of that going on in the world. Who says nepotism's a bad thing? Yeah, yeah.

You know what? I know this is a visual gag, but I feel like describing it anyway. I'm dreaming of of that going on in the world. Who says nepotism's a bad thing? Yeah, yeah. You know what? I know this is a visual gag, but I feel like describing it anyway. I'm dreaming of – Mate, you've got your dick out. You're working it real hard. Oh, yeah, it does work in words. Cool. We're in your bedroom, funnily enough, at the moment,

and I'm looking around. You've got a few posters, a few sort of like bandy sort of posters. What I'm already dreaming of with the Koh Samui International Podcast Festival is one of those like music festivals. Oh, definitely. Where they've got like the eye chart sort of format. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Where the first thing is Little Dum Dum Club and then there's a hundred to be confirmed.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not bad. Yeah. Not bad. Or NAs, not applicable. Like this happens with music festivals constantly now in this country. Bands pulling out at the last minute. Right. Do you think we're going to be do you think we're going to have to deal with that well find a replacement podcast at the 11th hour you know

what i'm happy if we pull out and then us as festival directors have to find a replacement and you and i both have to set up new shows just to fill the void fine um how about this how about we go hunting if there's i wonder if there's actually a podcast on Koh Samui that already exists. I wouldn't mind betting that there is. I don't know if there would be. I mean, the population is not that big. I've never been. I don't know anything about the layout or how residential it is.

Well, if you look it up, I think there's only about – there's between 10,000 and 30,000 people living there, I think. But what about nearby? Places nearby that are easy enough to get to? Is that a thing or not? There's Copenhagen, which is half an hour by ferry, which is smaller again. Okay, right.

And then Koh Tao, which is smaller, smaller, smaller again. So, look, there could be one podcast within those three islands, maybe. Well, I mean, we have to fly to Singapore to get there, so maybe we find one in Singapore and we just go and have some Singapore podcasters on a regular episode as guests. We could do it. Let's team up with Singapore's most popular podcast. All right.

Let's find who it is and get them on. Fuck. I wonder if there would be a Singapore comedy podcast. There must be. There'd have to be. There's not that much comedy there, though. Yeah, but still, podcasting is so easy to do, as this is evidence of. Right, alright.

I'll look it up. I'll look it up. We'll look into the Thailand podcast scene. Yes. And Singapore podcast scene. Alright, so enjoy this episode with guests Ray Badren and Aaron Gox. Hey, mates. Welcome once again into the Little dum-dum club for another week. Thank you so much for joining us.

My name is Tommy Dasolo. Sitting opposite me is the other half of the program, Carl Chandler. G'day dickhead. We're doing a rare one of these in my bedroom. I'm not into what I've got to say. Yeah, well, I know that you're trying to hide something because I get in here and there's a bit of... There's incense going. Yeah, there's incense. A lot of incense burning.

Has it covered up the semen smell or is that punctuating through a little bit? I'm not sure if it helps when there's still plenty of sperm dripping from the walls. Like it's only the – And the roof. Give me a bit of credit. You put a bit of incense in front of it but it hasn't hidden all of it. It's like it's the worst thing walking into like a bathroom at someone's house

after someone else has been in there and you smell the whatever it's called, the air freshener in there. Yeah. And it's no because it always cuts through. Yeah. What they're trying to hide, it's always cutting through. Yeah. So what are we hiding? Just nothing particularly bad.

Just, you know, wanted to get a bit of vibe going in here. Yeah. How does that make you feel relaxed? Oh, man. I feel like I'm in Jamaica right now. It's so good. I feel like the Bob Marley of podcasters. It's excellent.

Let's get the guests in. All right, let's get our guests in. First of all, returning to the show, this is the first time. Don't take a sip of water when I'm introducing you. Yeah, right. It's his first time on a quote-unquote studio web. Please welcome back onto the program, Ray Badron. Yeah.

Thanks, guys. I feel very loved today, actually. The first time I've actually been – usually I get a call from Carl when he's in Sydney and he's like, oh, I can't get anyone to do the podcast. I reckon he's like – An hour before it or the night before, like, oh, please, there's no one to do it. They've all dropped out.

Can you just come in? I'm like, oh, yeah, thanks, mate. To be fair, I reckon there's a request to crash on your couch before that oh yeah yeah oh no I don't think so but

you did I did talk to you earlier today about how to get here and whatever and you said you got any tips what's the difference

between a live episode and a studio episode I'm just like about fucking a hundred less people watching you do it so that's about it that is a bit different

also joining us on the show today his first time on the program you may be familiar fucking 100 less people watching you do it. So that's about it. That is a bit different. Also joining us on the show today, his first time on the program. You may be familiar with this thing on the internet. And sometimes, you know, videos get a lot of hate. We saw it with Opera Gangnam Style. We saw it with... Oh, we got Psy in here. Awesome. We saw it with Charlie Bit My Finger.

But the latest heir to the throne, you'll know him from his classic Stitch Up and Ocean Girl videos. Please welcome into Little Dumb Dumb Club, Aaron Gox. Oh, grumpy cat himself. Yay.

We got your kids out in the living room. They are watching Monsters vs. Aliens. This is, I don't know, how do we feel about this, about this podcast just kind of being a babysitting service? How do you feel? I would not feel comfortable about all of us being in my bedroom, like, right now, let alone strange kids being out in your lounge room. I don't know what you keep out in your lounge room or what's on your TV.

Yeah. Oh, man, what if they accidentally hit a button on the TV and go into the secret... Just for the record, they're not my kids. They're Gox's kids. Yeah, yeah. I didn't make it clear. I thought it would come out and I was like,

no, it's not coming out. How many kids do you reckon you got, Badrin? Zero. Okay. Are you sure about that? Fairly sure, yeah. Okay. Pretty sure.

How many kids do you reckon you've got, Goxy? Oh, too many. So did one of your kids just start school today? No. They went back to school, but they both did last year. So are you one of those parents that's just absolutely thrilled that

school holidays are done, you finally get some time to yourself? How would you describe your parenting style, Goxie? It's a work in progress. Learning on the run, yeah. On the way here, right, he was like, I've got to get out of the road here. And Goxie got out of the car, right? This is a little indication of his parenting style.

And he goes, oh, wait, wait. He goes, I've just got to teach the girls. I've got to get them into good habits, right? And it's quite a busy road out the front of your place, obviously, and there's cars going. He goes, I'm just trying to get them into good habits. And he goes, all right, girls, after the van, run. And there was no hint of irony whatsoever.

That's a good habit. See, I think that's better. Let's do the checklist. Running, healthy. Wait, wait, wait. One of your children ran and the other one walked across whilst reading a book at the same time. Again, again, education.

Preparing her for when she's old enough to have an iPhone and she's going to be looking at that while she crosses the street. This is good because my parents were like... You can't fault it. You're right. My parents were always like, you've got to make sure you're holding her hand. It's like, well, you're not always going to be there. You've got to make sure you're holding her hand It's like well that's You're not always going to be there

Yeah You've got to make sure you cross at the lights I mean who does that You get bullied at a certain age If you're still crossing at the lights And a car A car is more likely to stop If it sees a kid reading

We don't want to lose a smart one Is that what you're saying The thinking is Did you just give your kid a book And just go don't read it It's just a prop To make sure you don't get skittled Is the book about road safety Because that's the ultimate Does the book Did you just give your kid a book and just go, don't read it. It's just a prop to make sure you don't get skittled.

Is the book about road safety? Because that's the ultimate. Is the book called Stop? Because that would help. No. Does the book have an airbag in it? No, no, and this is not a joke as well. The book's called Genius.

It said Genius. Oh, great. Let's ask Carl what he said to them when I took him to the Brisbane Live podcast. Yes, this is one of the weirdest interactions I've ever seen. Well, you'll have to set this up a little bit, I imagine. Okay. Goxie, your children. How would you describe your children?

Compared to you. Female. Yes. That's a start. Huge if true. Yeah. I don't know. Their mother is from where?

Mozambique in Africa. Right. So we're getting a little bit of a few pieces of the puzzle. I would have said that would have been the obvious difference. Yeah. Yeah. We really danced it. No one wanted to just come out and say it.

We're asking the biggest softball questions And somehow So there is quite a few points of difference Between the physical appearance of you and your daughters Yeah that's right Yes They're from The mother is from Mozambique

From Africa Yeah Right But you Oh I don't think they heard it But what did you say right Well it was the first time I'd met them. Yeah.

And I said, well, no, you can say it. I feel like I'm repeating my own joke. Oh, you just come up and you go, hello, little girl. Wow, you've got your dad's nothing. Yeah. And, yeah, I think the joke kind of went over her head, luckily. But everyone else standing around just went, is this the first time this guy has ever interacted with any kind of child?

To be fair, I didn't mean to say it. I literally made that gag on the fly. I was like, all right. No, it rhymes with... No. Dinze. All right, we should give a bit of context. We've just said the mother was from Mozambique.

Goxie, for people who don't know you, who can't see you visually, do you want to tell the listeners which part of Africa you're from? Chad? A little part. If I were going to see the photo, I'd think, oh, I'm Goxie. Goxie's very Aussie. You've got a big mullet. How long have you had the mullet for now?

Again, too long. It started off as a joke, like most things in my life. Yeah. And, yeah, it's gotten out of hand. And now it's serious. It's just, well, it's so practical, you know, like. Name three ways it's practical. Just one.

Content on this podcast right now. Protects your neck in summer. Oh, that's like a built-in Legionnaire's hat. That is actually a bit practical. Okay, two more. Yeah. Well, because I like having longer hair, but I don't like having the fringe so that it's good.

That's right. To have short on top. Okay. And keeps you warm in winter. I mean, you could just go bald like I'm doing. And keeps people away. That's right. You've made a lot of sense so far.

You do really suit the mullet, I will say. You really, you wear it well. And I've had like so many styles over the years. So it was just Jew. And it was a lot better than the dreadlocks. Now you had cornrows at one point, is that correct? Yeah, that was another joke. That one didn't stick around.

That one didn't make it past the trial phase have you ever attempted to do a bit of a jokery with your daughter's hair like if you think it's so

funny to fuck your own hair why don't you just do it to your daughter's because give them a mohawk I like them

actually I did have a mohawk at one or just like shaved it wasn't spiky but yeah I've had a lot

of styles what do your daughters think of your mullet? They just think it's normal? They don't like it. Why don't they like it? Because when you pick up your kids like at school and the other parents don't have mullets?

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Fair enough. Speaking of you guys just getting here, we're at Casa del Daslo this afternoon recording this. And you have got One of the The lovely Old fashioned milk bars

That are just on your corner Yes One of the old school ones That everyone always goes Oh they should stick around forever And oh isn't it sad When they close down Like you go in there

And it's like one of those Crazy old Hardware stores Where they've got Everything Like every possible Inch of the whole milk bar Is filled with

Like you know Ice cream Spatulas Fucking fishing wire, anything. I walked past my old house's old local milk bar the other day. Gone. Closed down. Very recently closed down too because there was like, you know,

the apology note in the window where it's clearly happened very quickly and they're like, they're just like, oh. They've changed the locks. They're like, we fucked up. We're sorry to all our loyal customers. We fucked up. And it is that thing where I went in there then and went, oh, like, we fucked up. We're sorry to all our loyal customers. We fucked up. And it is that thing where I went in there then and went, oh, man, this is awesome.

You look around and it's all, this is great. It reminds me of being a kid or whatever. And then you start paying the prices and go, ah, fuck, I might go to Woolworths. This is no good. Totally. And I've talked about this milk bar before. They're dodgy in there.

They're doing some dodgy stuff. You looked in the ice cream cabinet, didn't you? I did. That's why I'm bringing it up. They're doing the old not to be sold separately. They're selling them separately. Yes. Going down to Aldi, getting a box of 10 paddle pops for three bucks.

Yeah. Flogging them at $2 a piece. Exactly. They're illegally selling Magnums down there, which I reckon is in your wheelhouse, Gox. You're doing a bit of profiteering off the back of ice cream. What's your favourite ice cream, Gox. You're doing a bit of profiteering off the back of ice cream. What's your favourite ice cream, Gox? Oh, God.

These are the... I didn't realise the big questions would be... Sorry, welcome to Parkinson's. Sorry, Michael Moore. When is he going to expose the ice cream industry for what it really is? Fuck, it looks like he knows a lot about it, to be fair. He's been investigating for about 30 years, I reckon.

He's deep undercover. I love a splice. Oh, splice is a good choice. Really? Because it's the... It's almost an ice block, though. Yeah. But that's what I was going to say, you get the best of both worlds.

Exactly. It's filling and it's satisfying because you get that richness of the ice cream, but it's also refreshing because you get that little lime flavour in there. Ice cream or ice blocks or that whole food in general, it's very temperature dependent. If it's too hot, you've got to go ice blocks and no cream and then as it gets a bit cooler, maybe a bit more. Maybe something a bit richer

Taster There should be There should be an official temperature Like you know When On your apps or whatever When it hits 23 It's like

Alright Go to ice blocks now Whatever it is There should be a certain temperature What it should be On the news When they do the weather report And they're like

It's 30 But it feels like 32 Fuck that off And just tell me What ice cream I should go and get It'd be way better Yeah yeah It's ice block But it feels like ice cream Fuck that off and just tell me what ice cream I should go and do. It would be way better. Yeah, yeah.

It's ice block but it feels like ice cream. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. They should recommend, you know, instead of that thing, you know, traditionally you watch the weather going, oh, what should I wear tomorrow? It's like, what ice cream? Which bit of the corner store cabinet should I be going into tomorrow?

Yeah. Is there an app? There must be an app for that, right? Because there's just a straight up weather app. But there should be a weather app that's like it takes the weather and the humidity and then it tells you wear this and eat this. I tell you, plus 32, definite ice block, like plus 32. 30 to 32 is like debatable, like maybe a splice is good in that one. And then below that you can go into like gelatos,

but I'd say like fruit-based gelatos for like the 29 to 28. And then you'd go like dairy, more chocolate and like, yeah. See, this is – Gotsi, you're writing this down? Now, this is what's different about a live ep and a studio ep. You can really get into the nitty-gritty on the studio one. We would not get away with this shit in a live episode. People would be baying for blood by now.

I was just thinking how there's already so much product placement out there and then cash for comment sort of thing. Oh, fuck. I would love that. You'd have like Peter's and Streets Ice Cream paying off the weather. Oh, fuck yeah. Yeah, telling them to lie about the weather. It's like I know it's going to be 15 tomorrow, but here's 10 grand.

It's going to be 27. So we can push a few more ice trains. You know, people are like, I don't know how they do that week ahead forecast or like, is it done in the shade or is it done on a hill? And it's like, I don't really know if I like this new streets weather. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But again, that's a concession that I would happily make for practice because I look at a thing and I go, oh, it's 25.

But I couldn't tell you now what do I wear for 25. I don't know. I can't tell you off the top of my head. With sponsorship and stuff, I find it like I went to the tennis recently and every element of the tennis is just there's some corporate sponsor attached to it, literally every element. Like you know how you can challenge. Sorry, Badger, you'll be allowed to talk at some point.

You're just checking your phone as we're talking. I was trying to read this flavour of an ice cream, to be honest with you. Like, I couldn't remember it, but I thought this would be funny. Like, just let me get it up. Oh, it's fucked now, but now you brought it up. I've got it. The Connoisseur ice cream, they've gone too far. You know, they've gone too far.

They're those mad men that are charging like $6 for a fucking ice cream. Yeah, and it's like a store-bought ice cream, they've gone too far. You know, they've gone too far. They're those mad men that are charging like $6 for a fucking ice cream. Yeah, and it's like a store-bought ice cream. With a $10 one litre tub. But it's you know, they've got the Oh, this is fucking bullshit. Sorry, mate. It's, you know, it's like Moroccan, like Moroccan

chocolate or something like this. Himalayan salt or something like this. I gave a shit about chocolate from the Himalayas before this. The minute that they started trying to get you with salt-based flavours in things is a rort in my opinion. What does that mean? I've never had the salty caramel

or whatever it is. I don't understand salt with ice cream. It killed caramel. There is no caramel anymore. Salted caramel is the new caramel. I'm with Badger on this one. It's like when they started going vanilla bean flavour instead of just vanilla. Yeah. What's the difference?

Yeah. I mean, vanilla, it comes from the bean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a bit bullshit. Now, this is... No, but there is a difference between salted caramel and caramel though. Right. I just don't understand because when I see ice cream and salt, I go, no, that's not cool.

Well, it works with the caramel for some reason. It doesn't really work. They've tried it with the chocolate a bit and, like, it doesn't really work that much. You've never had salted caramel? No. You've got to try it. But, like, I feel like ice cream industries always try to be fancy.

Like Neapolitan, what are you talking about? That's pink, brown and white. So you just order ice creams in colours. Yeah. It's not, there's not a lot of Italian in there, is there?

It's not like, even like, you know, it's not come from a fucking gondola or anything in Naples. Well, it's funny you talk

about vanilla bean because I think it's so ingrained in us that vanilla equals plain. Yes. Yeah, yeah,

yeah. It's kind of like plain chips, but they used to be called like salted, but it's just plain. You. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of like plain chips, but they used to be called like salted, but it's just plain. You've got to like, yeah. Maybe that's literally all it is. Putting bean on it makes it sound like an actual flavour.

Right, yeah, yeah. Because vanilla is actually really nice, like a nice scent. Yeah. But I think vanilla ice cream is really just plain. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's your default ice cream before you add something to it. Yeah, yeah. And it's seeped in because, you know, someone will describe someone a bit boring and they'll go, eh, they're's your default ice cream Before you add something to it Yeah, yeah And it's seeped in Because you know someone

Will describe someone a bit boring And they'll go like They're a bit vanilla Yeah And it's like Vanilla's fine Yeah I'm a constant orderer

Not constant But I do get it a lot Vanilla ice cream And there's always someone going What are you fucking getting there for? Yeah It's like What do you mean?

It's fine It's a good flavour What's wrong with that? Yeah Hey, let's do one of our patented anti-ads I was at Gelato Messina the other day Oh yeah Oh fuck, are they copping it? They're like packed It's fine. It's a good flavour. What's wrong with that? Yeah. Hey, let's do one of our patented anti-ads. I was at Gelato Messina the other day. Oh, yeah? Oh, fuck, are they copping it?

They're, like, packed. It's packed in there. Big, kind of long counter with all the ice cream behind it. So, you know, you go in and you're kind of, like, in this little line. And by the time you get to the end, you can only see a small segment of the whole cabinet. Yeah. And they don't have the flavours listed up anywhere. Yep, yeah.

So, you're just limited to whatever flavours are in front of you at the bit that you happen to stand in. And it's whole cabinet. Yeah. And they don't have the flavours listed up anywhere. Yep, yep. So you're just limited to whatever flavours are in front of you at the bit that you happen to stand in. And it's high pressure. Yeah. Like, there's a lot of people behind you, you can't take your time trying everything, you know. And you don't know what the, they're not going with the traditional flavours. So you can't just go on the fly and go, I'll go with strawberry, because they don't have

like plain strawberry. Well, I go to her, do you have like cookies and cream? And she goes, oh, no. And I'm like, well, what do you her, do you have like cookies and cream? And she goes, oh, no. And I'm like, well, what do you have that's kind of like cookies and cream? And she's like, oh, we've got bounty. I'm like, I don't want bounty. That's not like cookies and cream. That's coconut.

You don't look at coconut up a tree and go, oh, that reminds me of Arnott's. It is funny when you get so used to these gourmet fancy ones and then you go to those ones that just don't give a shit. I remember I think in Brisbane where we swam in South Bank, you know, opposite the city. Yeah. And there's like one of those, it's real Aussie type. Yeah.

Like Baskin Robbins but a more independent one. Yeah. But anyway, one of the, because I like getting the milkshakes there, but one of the flavours was just – it was called cake dough. Great. So it's not even like – It's not even a cooked cake. It's not even like cheesecake.

Like a cake descriptor, just cake dough. Yeah. Is it – do you have dough for cakes though, isn't it? Well, what I'm thinking it is, you know when your mum made and you lick the sticks? Yeah, right, right, right. But you're right. The real mum and pops Ice cream stores

Man they've been Fucking right out of town Haven't they You never see Just your simple Beach side Well you wouldn't You wouldn't trust them

For I would never trust One of those shops For your old scoop Ice cream anymore Yeah Because they're those ones Where you go to an

Unpopular ice cream shop Like that and go I'll get that It's like fuck That tub's been open For about three months Yes definitely Definitely

No good Like we'll get into I want to talk about Thailand for a little bit. But that reminds me of – in Thailand there's a lot of resorts. They have the branded Movenpick resorts now, like ice cream themed resorts. Oh, resorts. Right. Wow. Resorts.

And you go, fucking awesome. And then you go there and it's like, yeah, you have ice cream for sale there. And that's it. It's like, why is there a Movenpick resort and it's like yeah you have ice cream for sale there and that's it it's like why is there a movenpick resort if the only thing is you have ice cream you can possibly buy if you want i mean i know it's unreal expectation but i'm like thinking oh you get a room there and it's fucking covered in ice cream there's there's open bar you can get whatever you want there's yeah your room's got about fucking 20 cones in it yeah go and do whatever the fuck you want with it you sleep in a giant scoop yeah yeah yeah i'm thinking room's got about fucking 20 cones in it. Yeah. You go and do whatever the fuck you want with it. You sleep in a giant scoop.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that would be cool. I'm thinking there's got to be something more than just naming it after an ice cream. It would be cool. An ice cream themed resort and all the rooms are like different flavours. Yeah. And they're kind of, so like cookies and cream, like everything's kind of like black and white in there.

Would it kill you to have like some free shit in the minibar? Like you're in an ice cream themed resort. Yes. Even, you know what, you go to breakfast, you're always getting your free buffet breakfast. You're there with your bacon and eggs. The waiter comes along, puts a bit of fucking vanilla on the side of it. All these ideas sound terrible.

I think they're doing the right thing. Or maybe a room is like a cool room. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And you freeze and die. You've got an ice cream buffet. Ice cream buffet, that's the least you can do. Yeah, at the die No I thought You can ice cream Ice cream buffet Ice cream buffet

That's the least you can do Yeah the very least It should just be ice cream It should just be free ice cream Like if I'm basically It hits It hits at that temperature Like we're talking about

It hits 27 or something Bell rings Bang Ice cream buffet Three o'clock What about this Instead of the little mints On your pillow

A little ice cream A little scoop Very good Yeah In the packet maybe. It's a lot to be silly to put in a packet. I mean if I'm basically staying in a big ad, I want that

thing for free. Like I'm paying to be inside this company. Why would you go to a place that's named after an ice cream brand if you're not getting ice cream out of it? Someone's got to take that to the newspapers, to the consumer board, along with that ticketing agency.

Well, given that you've just said an ice cream company have done one, it's amazing that there's no McDonald's resorts. Oh, yeah. Isn't it crazy that there's not a McDonald's hotel? Yeah. Like if they just basically put rooms above a McDonald's, boom, they'd be booked. What kid would not be badgering their put rooms above a McDonald's. Yeah. Boom. They'd be booked.

What kid, what kid would not be badgering their parents to live in McDonald's for a week? You're absolutely correct. If I was a kid, I would be totally doing that. Yeah. I reckon theme park. Macca's theme park. Yeah. Go, go.

Yeah. Well, you have your hotel and then you've got your playground, your extended playground. Oh, yeah. The kids party. They've already, I was trying to think, like they've gone from the, you know, the furthest they've gone is the kids party. You know, they have the kids party, but it's still think, they've gone from the, the furthest they've gone is the kids party. They have the kids party but it's still in the restaurant and stuff like that. You've got the play equipment but just extended a bit more.

Yeah, gigantic play equipment. Goxy, you were getting stuck in for a little while to the various fast food chains and the ones that don't have good play equipment. Yeah, well, I couldn't quite work out. Are we allowed to say brands? Go for it. This isn't the ABC. Who's governing us? Are you saying that after we've said Messina, Movenpick,

Peter's, Street? Or are you just going to go... You should have a list of the ones that are willing to send you stuff. That's this show. That's sort of the theme of this show. We just talk about food products constantly in an effort to get any of them for free. So far it's yet to pay off.

Well, I find they don't like you doing it. I think they want you to shut up because I don't mean you, but a couple of years ago at the Comedy Fest I was doing the Big M Challenge, drinking as many Big M's as I could. You're saying you're doing the Big M Challenge. That's a thing you made up. You weren't competing in something. You just decided to drink Big M.

It's not an actual challenge. It's your challenge. It was on the back of 100 beers that another comedian was doing, so I decided to do the 100 Big M's. You were the creator and first participant of the Big M Challenge. Well, as they say, be the change you want to see in the world. Think globally, act globally. No, I don't think that one.

Anyway, but yeah, so I got to about like 26 big M's in a fortnight. And then the diabetes kicked in. Yeah. I think I said to them, I messaged them saying their page, like I'm doing this, and they sent me a shirt. Yes. I think it was just like, leave us alone. Like, here's a shirt.

We don't want you going on a current affair. You know that like the lady who's like, these are all my Coke Zeros, and there's a big table. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To be fair, if it was Miranda Kerr doing it, they probably would have sent us some better stuff. But a bloke in a mullet going, I'm going to drink milk for a month. They're going, yeah, if you could, you know what?

How about try Coke? Coke's pretty good. It is weird that they gave you their branding to wear around because it's sort of like this guy's like, you know, 100 big M's in a month. It's like at one point you're going to be walking around with like a leg that's fallen off because of the diabetes. And also they're going to have to start you on the medium

or the large and then up you to an XL if you're going to be drinking a big M every day. Because, yeah, you would get another comedian to be in all the photos with you. You came and grabbed me to be in one and I was very hesitant to participate because it just felt like this is not healthy. I don't want to be a part of it. Well, since then someone has told me like you could have repeated because I was getting a new Big M each time and I'm like, that's cheating.

Each Big M needs to be a unique experience. Well, I think I saw you. You were on like the third Big M. You were in one, I think. Yeah, it was the early one. It was like the third or something and I remember and you were like, oh, no, it's just like, he goes, I'm trying to do 100, this is the third one

and I was like, oh, you know, 30 days in the festival, it's maybe possible and he's like, no, I'm just here for under two weeks. It wasn't very well thought out. Flavour-wise, what were you doing? Were you jumping around flavours? Yeah. You've got to mix it up.

You've got to have a strawberry to keep it healthy every now and then. Yeah, exactly. Put some milk in. But it was like, it was interesting to like, I know they're not good, but also I didn't think beers are great and no one, everyone was like this is a lot worse than beers. Yeah we need to get Dr Carlin on this. What's worse? 100 beers or

100 big ants? Yeah yeah yeah that's actually a good question. Because I mean milk does have good properties, like milk does have good stuff in it. So at base level no one ever goes you actually do need to have a bit of beer to keep this going. Yeah yeah. Well and. You must have fucking strong-ass bones.

I've always just thought it's a funny concept too. There's a little bit of gear coming in. What do you say for that? Gear alert. The amount of people when they're drinking booze on a night out, if you were to drink that of another liquid,

that's just something. Yeah, totally. It's nothing to have 12, 13, I was going to say a litre. No, like five litres or something. Yeah, no, you wouldn't go, hey, guys, I've got a slab of Coke. Yeah, yeah. Let's go for it. Yeah, so something to think about.

You know what? Well, speaking of beer, and sponsorship, this welds in very nicely to this. So Nick Cappa was on the show last week and um this is this is what is it's a new phenomenon with our listeners this is what happens he's on the show he hits me up the other day rings up and goes hey do you want to go and me and you and tommy uh let's go and have a few beers i'm like what for he goes man i was on your podcast last week one of your listeners from from America just wired me 60 bucks and went, why don't you go and have a few beers?

What for? Was he complaining about having no money? No, I don't think anything. So guests have to announce their bank account on this show? Yeah, I'm not sure how that works. Hey, if you guys want to, let's test this out. Try it out. Yeah, sure.

082-916. My gas bill is Energy Australia if you want to pay that. So wait, yeah, I wonder if that works, if you can call up Energy Australia and go, Aaron Gox, can you just find him? I just want to pay his gas bill for him. Yeah. Yeah, like you know those commercial rails,

like they have those like pay off your bills contest. I was going to say it's like I've talked about this on the show before but there are porn stars that get out there and go, here's my Amazon wish list. Oh, yeah. Get me this and that. And then you just put yours up. It's like AGL bill 07691.

Just whack 60 bucks off that, will you? I've had it at a coffee shop before. Like got my coffee and they've gone, don't worry about paying the person before. It's paid for you. And they've gone. What? And I was like, oh, that's so nice.

Is that a random thing though? Yeah, it's just a random thing. It was a random thing. It wasn't because they knew it was you. No, no, it's just a random thing. So this person, wait. That's a thing. So someone's standing in line at a coffee shop and going,

hey, whoever this is behind me, I want to get their coffee as well. Yeah, I think it's a thing. What? Like they'll just get the next person's coffee as well. If I was at a shop, I wouldn't have said it. Yeah, put it in the tip chart. Yeah, you're right. Yeah. No, but that is a thing. It's a bit of a pay it forward have said it. Yeah, put it in the tip chart. Yeah, you're right. No, but that is a thing.

It's a bit of a pay it forward, isn't it? Really? I've never heard of that before. Oh, really? Yeah. No, that's amazing. Yeah. So, yeah, look.

So, Kappa needs to now go and buy a slab for someone else, I think. What about when you call up your phone company to pay the bill and they're like, oh, we just need to confirm that it's you? It's like, you know what? If someone wants to call up and pretend to be me and pay my bill, let them go for it. It's like, you know what? If someone wants to call up and pretend to be me and pay my bill, let them go for it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you tell the phone company to let that happen?

Yeah, totally. It's like the thing of do not resuscitate. You know, if you find this guy, do not resuscitate. Do not stop someone from paying my bill. Background check this person. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A little bit different of that, but a couple of times I've gotten money out

And just walked away Have you ever done Like accidentally Oh yeah It's the worst feeling in the world Yeah And then It's bad that it happens

And then you're like telling them And they think you're being dodgy Like oh Well you go to the bank And you tell them that Well yeah I got it It happened twice

I think both times I got it sorted out But they think They think it sucks What are you doing? What are you doing Walking away from From ATMs without getting your money? Wait, really?

So wait, you're able to go to them and go, I fucked up and walked away without getting my money. And they reimburse you? Yeah, I think it sucks it back in or something, the machine. Well, now we're in my wheelhouse. Like I think they'd have footage of it and if you're trying to live off that, constantly doing it, they'd be on to it pretty quickly. Yeah, that's interesting because I think I've done it maybe twice

in my whole life and at no point did I go, I could get that back. I'd go, I fucked up, it's gone, someone else would have taken it. I'm in surplus, I've never done it. Found 50 in there one day. Really? Did my best to look around and go, is this anyone? Like didn't go, is this anyone? Because someone's just going to grab anyone? Oh, mate, I reckon

that was mine. Can I get it back? Yeah, yeah, no worries. It was yellow. In Thailand as well to tie it back, I was there and I was so drunk and I'd taken money out and I was standing at the ATM just so drunk and I just was too slow to grab it

and I saw it go back in the money and my card and it was just gone. Fuck. And I'm in Thailand and I can't get it back and then I'm flying out to like Laos the next day with no card. Jesus, fuck. I'm the dickhead in the group that has to get like my, wire my money to a friend.

And then you get your call from your bank going, look, I know this is obviously not you, but we've had something weird happen in Thailand where apparently your card can't be used anymore because they let the money go back in. Obviously that's not you. You we've had something weird happen in Thailand where apparently your card can't be used anymore because they let the money go back in. Obviously, that's not you. You've been hacked. No, that was me.

I'm a real fuckhead. I had that in Bali because in Bali it comes, like here you get your card and then you get the money, I think it comes out in that order. Yeah. But over there it's the other way. So money comes out first and then the card comes out and so in my head i'm like oh i've got the money this is the last thing i do at the atm bye everyone and then

some guy had to like chase me down the street and go hey fuckhead you've left your card i've done that with that but i'm a big one for doing that in shops where i get the change and go thanks for that and walk away and then they run down the street and go do you want the stuff that you bought or did you just want the change? Yeah, I've done that. And there was a guy, I think a mutual friend recently, who lost his card and then he put his statement that showed like, because, you know, the pay pass,

but these people had just gone and licked a lamb 20 times because I think 99 bucks is the max. Oh, right, right, right. That you can do pay pass. The lick a lamb plea must have been just so dumb. He's just like, oh, you know, they're not meant to, if something sus is going on. Yeah.

They're not good paid enough to give a shit about that. Yeah. Well, I hope that guy's having a good party with his seven times 99. Yeah. So we do have a little bit of Thailand news coming up, but speaking of that, you've already been there You've been there before, right? Have you been there a couple of times or something?

Yeah, I went there when I was like 18 or 19 Went like travelling through Asia Oh yeah, yeah You did the old get out of school and go through with mates? Yeah, I went there and I went to South America As soon as I got out of school On like a big sort of out of school holiday. What, like gap year?

No, just holiday. Right. Did you find yourself over there? No, I was too young and just taking drugs and drinking and stuff like that. So, yeah, found myself, yeah. Found myself in trouble. Found out I love taking drugs and not being around my family.

Man, I was in... I can't even fucking remember the island. They all sound the same. What, PP and Pa Pa or whatever. They all got Ko at the start. Oh, right. Well, yeah. There was one of these islands.

Is this racist? No, they do actually sound... Isn't there a PP island? Yes. Yeah. And there is like a PP Island? No? There's a lot of islands.

But they do sound similar That's a very famous island Peepi Okay So maybe you're right Maybe it is slightly racist So I was in one of the islands though

And I can't remember which one And there was like this Peepi Yeah Peepi Island And there was this like On this mountain There was like this hut That had like mushrooms and pot and stuff like this and other stuff.

And I went up there one day with a friend and we were smoking heaps of pot. When you say there's just a hut up there, it belongs to someone, yeah? How do you know the person that has a hut? It was like a cafe almost, but like not really. And it's like decked out. It's not like when I say hut, I'm not talking like traditional sort of. How do you make almost a cafe? What does that mean? Well, it like not really. And it's like decked out. It's not like when I say hut, I'm not talking like traditional sort of – How do you make almost a cafe? What does that mean?

Well, it has a menu. It has a menu. It has a menu. Yeah, literally. It has a menu with like weed tea, weed mushroom tea, opium tea, and like food. Mr. Tea. A bit of food.

Mr. Tea. A bit of food and stuff like that. And then – so I was just smoking heaps of pot and I had some mushrooms and we're in there and it's like decked out with lights and shit like that. It's pretty shit. But like, you know. What? Oh, sorry, this shit room we're in right now.

No, like I tried to make it like all spacey, you know. Look at this shit decor as I'm trying to buy marijuana tea and opium coffee. No, but it's just like, you know, like they've just tried to make it look like all spacey. I'm going to buy marijuana tea and opium coffee. No, but it's just like, you know, they've just tried to make it look like all spacey. I'm going to take my business elsewhere. I mean, I don't want you to imagine it was this cool little hut in like somewhere in like the jungle in Thailand. That's exactly how you've described it.

No, I was trying to describe it. Then you guys started bagging me out. It was all it was all decked out like as if some fucking 16 year old kid had done it you

know yeah exactly neon lights and shit like this this fucking huss decked out like some 16 year old fuck

has done it meanwhile he's 18 someone two years below me at school did this what a fuckhead

yeah it's like me and 10 kid did it. But yeah, fuck, I was in there. I'll be taking my copy of On The Road and bidding you adieu. I don't know why the fuck I ever bother trying to say a story. I can't hear this story. I know why we ask you.

This is like the lonely planet Beavis and Butthead. Go here if you like sick stuff. Great. It sounds good. Oh, I thought you meant more Beavis and Butthead as in when they're watching the video clips and they're just ragging shit over the top of them. So it's like a Lonely Planet guy who's like,

this would be good to do. And we're like, yeah, I fucking bet it would be. All right. So wait, who is Beavis and Butthead in this analogy? I think it's us And you're Gwar on the TV I didn't think about it Mate

I just meant It's just The description's just like It's sick It's mad It works on a lot of levels Let's go on You put a frog in a blender

Yeah So I smoke Like I smoke these joints And I have a few mushrooms And I'm just like Sitting Sitting down Chilling out Lying mushrooms and I'm just like sitting down, chilling out, lying around and I'm getting a dry mouth, like a very dry mouth.

And I think it's a side effect from one of the drugs maybe. And there's like my friend was having like a milkshake on the table and I just pick it up and I – Oh, well, Goxie's fucking tuned in. I've got to go to this, Tyler. Wait, this drug cafe has milkshakes as well

I'm gonna do the the 30 day drug milkshake challenge well yeah that's that's what it was it was a

I'd scull it right because I'm having such a dry mouth and I scull it and it's a mushroom shake without me realising

like it's a mushroom shake that's a nightmare of mine to be eating drinking something and then someone go by the way you know that's full of yeah oh and you've like this is like it's very weird of them to serve you drugs in this drug cafe i know i know i know you think you know someone i mean i just and it was so tight i was like oh this is great and i just i was like i'll get you another one and then I'll finish it. And he's like, that's a mushroom shake. And we're up on this, like it's quite a hard trek to get to this place. How's the dry mouth going though?

The dry mouth's going now. I've got bigger problems now. Your mouth is now floating outside your body. Your mouth is now literally the ocean. I haven't really done mushrooms before. Like I'd only done them the first time, like maybe once or twice, but like I hadn't really done them and certainly not like that and I wasn't really comfortable with them either.

Like pot's fine, but that I was not comfortable with. And then like just everything started like converging in front of my eyes, like all the building and stuff like that did and all the mountains and stuff. Was the decorations in the cafe looking better? Possibly, yeah. Much better actually. I was like, we've got to get the fuck out of here. I've got to get back to the hotel.

This looks like year 11 decor now. Yeah. I was like, yeah, the high school kids did this one now, didn't they? And we get down the mountain and I'm like, and it's just fucking packed. Thailand's almost like you're on mushrooms without the mushrooms, you know? And I'm like, so I go to like, I buy these and everyone's like,

we bump into someone, they're like, your eyes are fucked, you're fucked. And I'm just like, my skin's fucked. I can't, like I can just feel the wind on me and shit. I'm like, oh, this is fucked. Did you drop the milkshake on you or did you drink it? Mate, I don't know what's going on, but I'm fucked. This person who said you looked fucked, was this in Thailand or was this at Sydney Airport before you came?

Who knows? Who knows if there was even a person? But I was like, I need some sunglasses immediately, right? This will disguise me. So I buy like the biggest like Corey Worthington fucking sunglasses you've ever seen, right? Thinking that this will make me look less like a drug addict, right? And so I put these on.

You've really just put a starfish on your face. Yeah, and I'm like, I've got to get back to the hotel. So I get back to the hotel and I can't get in my room and I'm locked out. I'm like, oh, fuck. Or I'll just go to the pool in the hotel and I'll have a swim and that'll fix me up. And I go to the pool and the pool's packed.

And I'm like, I can't get in the pool. I'm going to have a shower next to the pool. And so I go to the pool and the pool's packed and I'm like, I can't get in the pool. I'm going to have a shower like next to the pool and so I go to the shower and I stand under the shower heads and I'm trying to turn it on and I'm looking for the taps to turn on the shower

and I can't find them and I'm like, oh fucking, I don't know how the showers work over here. They must be different and I'm looking for it and after a while, I find out like,

I'm standing under a light glow, just a light glow that I thought was a shower the whole fucking time. So, yeah, that's my Thailand experience. That's a sweet ad for our Thailand trip. How was your – how did you pull up the next day? Any residual effects? Yeah, a bit scattered and a bit scattered for the rest.

Like that was bad but the worst part was the after effects, you know. You're just scattered And a bit anxious And I didn't like that Yeah Didn't like that So I've never really liked Mushrooms or hallucinogens

Afterwards So you've been drug free Ever since No A cautionary tale Yeah Yeah Just clean living

Since then Shout out to that cafe Have you got the name of it No I can't remember I can't even remember the island I think that was the first move and pick resort. Just go to Thailand, walk around, try and find a big hill, walk up it, look for a hut.

Yeah, it shouldn't be too hard. A hut up a hill in Thailand? Easy. That has drugs on it. And grade 11 artwork. Yeah. Just go around asking people where the nearest drugs are. You'll find it.

Yeah, easy. So we've been talking a lot about this recently on the show, this little obsession I have with Thailand. The obsession, the great idea that I've put out there that people are very keen on, hopefully. It sounds like there's a lot of great interest in listeners out there. We are going to do a show in Thailand. Well, hey, we're not just doing a show.

Oh, sorry. I take it back. Yeah. We are launching the first annual Koh Samui Podcast Festival. At the moment, the only podcast confirmed is Little Dumb Dumb Club. Sorry, get the branding right. The Koh Samui International Podcast Festival. Apologies.

I'm wrecking the brand. Yeah, the big headliners are from Australia. Only one podcast confirmed Only one podcast invited as well Yeah But I am doing a lot of work Behind the scenes Trying to

You know what I'm doing the right thing By the listeners All the listeners That want to fly over I'm doing the right thing I'm trying to get the best deal I'm trying to get the best deal

On flights On accommodation Ice cream Ice cream Yes I've knocked back the deal From Movenpick Resort Because they wouldn't even

Throw in a fucking paddle pop. Jesus Christ. Well, it's not their brand. It's a bit much to ask them. Maybe that's why they wouldn't throw it in, to be fair. I should have gone back with a better negotiation. You should let any keen futsal teams out there know you can get a good uniform deal.

Yes, exactly. Yeah, that's where I go for a lot of cheap soccer top knockoffs over there. That's where I go shopping. I played cheap soccer top knockoffs over there. That's where I go shopping. I played one game in Carl's team before I got fired because apparently a goalkeeper shouldn't have a bottle of Big M in the goals. He literally did. He came and played one time in goals and he put a two-litre bottle

of Big M in the goal. You've got to keep your fluids up. That's Gatorade, Gox. You're not fucking Big M. That's acting as like an extra boundary. You know what I up. That's Gatorade, Goxie. Not fucking Big M. Okay, that's acting as like an extra boundary. You know what I mean? That's like the ball could bounce off that. No, literally this is what happened.

He goes, he puts it in the back of the goal and then we warmed up. We're just taking shots going, Goxie, you idiot. Why have you put the milk in the fucking goals? He's like, I'll save everything. We're smashing him in. He's actually saving them all. We get 30 seconds of the game. Someone puts one straight past him, hits his fucking

big end, spills it everywhere. You had the lid off while you had it on the ground. Now that's bold. No, he had it in his hand. You were also in slippers, weren't you? Yeah. You've got to be comfortable. He also snuck onto the field one time mid-match.

He snuck on. He was behind the goalkeeper and he goes, he wasn't playing. And then the goalkeeper's there and he's just behind the goalkeeper going, just put me on. He's like, mate, I don't think you're playing. I think I'm in goals. He's like, nah, just put me on. And then we turn around.

We turn around one stage and Goxie's in goals. His ball goes from half field straight. And we go, I just go, Goxie, what the fuck are you doing? And he goes, oh, and just ran off the field and jumped in his car and drove home. Why does anyone play with you? It sounds awful. It sounds like it's nothing. It's a good operation.

Hang on, now I'm the one that's wrong for not having a fucking bottle of milk in my goal. Yeah, you're absolutely roasting me. It's like eighth grade. You're giving me plenty of fucking cereal to be true. I mean, I think he's only just described the situation, really. I think, yeah, like high level sports have Brazilian fake Thailand uniform. Yeah, no, that's the level I was trying to keep us up to. We're playing the Brazilian top, nothing but the best for us.

Yeah. And no fucking chocolate milk in the goals. That is a big failing of sports, I will say, like a professional level. Like imagine if you went to the AFL and every player had to be carrying at least one item of drink or food in their hands at all times. Now that would make it more interesting. I'm going to take a mark while eating a 4 and 20. I'd be way more into that.

I think what is consumed during sports events is a good way to judge the level of it because a long time ago, almost a decade ago, but back in Brisbane, I used to play American football, which it can get pretty intense, but it's basically for fun. And my team at like quarter time, half time, there'd be like a huddle and where your coach is telling you what to do and then there'd be a group about 10 metres away with like just a cloud of, because they're all having a ciggy.

And I think that's a good way to say this isn't the highest level of sport. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're not taking this as seriously as the other people. Yeah. Can put down the diary for two hours. Yeah, yeah. I think top level sports you wouldn't see a Siggy. Yeah.

That would be great. That would be like at the tennis at a certain level that should be a handicap where you just like in between each set if you're like – like if you're the number one in the world and you're playing someone who's like not ranked, in between each set you have to smoke three Daris before you go back out there. There's a couple of professional football players Or soccer players that smoke

Probably not during the game No But there was one that got caught smoking on a train recently Who was that? Like a Man City Yeah, there's a few Premier League people Who go out for a drink and have a smoke Which is pretty insane

Given what they're doing But the Coastal Million Podcast Festival So what we've done is we've made up a mailing list given what they're doing. But the Coast to Million Podcast Festival. So what we've done is we've made up a mailing list. So if you get onto our social media pages, if you get onto Facebook particularly or Twitter or Instagram, you'll get the link to join up to the mailing list just to keep you guys informed as to exactly what's going on. There's all the developments take place.

But, yeah, just today I got a confirmation from a hotel that we'll probably confirm next week, I reckon, in the next week online certainly and then on the podcast next week. But I have- We hit them up with a pretty, well, you hit them up on behalf of us with a pretty, you know, I'm going to say it, a fairly brazen proposal. Yes. Like it's fair, but it's also also let's put ourselves in their shoes.

You're a hotel manager. You get this fucking email with all these demands from a podcast you've never heard of which claims to be extremely popular from the other side of the world. From a Yahoo email account. Now I would say any right thinking

person in that position would write back and tell that person to get fucked. Yes. That's what I think is the fair thing to happen. Yes. But these motherfuckers. But you know what? It's not like I only emailed one place.

I've emailed plenty of them. Plenty of people have had that reaction and gone, I don't think we're even going to reply to this obvious spam email. Yes, yes. And some people have just taken the piss and come back and gone, yeah, we've got a deal for you. This much per night. Suck my dick. Yeah. Some people have come back and gone, we've got a deal for you. This much per night. Suck my dick.

Yeah. Some people have come back and gone, we've got this deal for you. Here's the price. And it's like, you're trying to charge me $40 a night more than what you can get online. What do you think I am? If I, like, I just quickly Googled and, like, mushroom shakes. There's a place called The Rock Bar that sells mushroom shakes in Koh Samui. Oh, right. Okay.

What's your question? Well, I'm saying you've got to get someone to have one. Who would have one? Oh, we'll all have one. I love mushrooms. I'll have one. Oh, right. Yeah.

It's The Rock Bar. Hang on. You love mushrooms? Yeah. But when they say, you can't advertise it. That's not an ad for a mushroom. No, that's a forum. It's a little forum.

Oh, okay. That's why I'm on the dark web here. Silk Road. Right, right, right. You're on Silk Road, mate. All right, so what's it called again? The Rock Bar. It might even be the one.

Look, it might even be the one that I was at. But you said you were on Pee Poo. That's Costa Mula. Yeah, but that was just one of the places I went. I can't really remember. Fuck it. They might have moved. Oh, right.

Sorry. Sorry, there might be a chain. It's a franchise, mate. There might be a chain of year 10 designed. It's the bloody, yeah, it's like the Moven pics. They've horizontally diversified into other cafes. It's like off your tree. Mushrooms on your pillows.

Come in. I like it. It's good. Plenty of gear in the fridge. Yeah. Plenty of syringes. Yeah, wait. Maybe if we just say that we're going to go over there.

Goxy's just had a good point. If we just say we're going to go over there Goxy's just had a good point If we just say We're going to go over there And take Fucking a million drugs Maybe we can get Off your tree To sponsor this trip

Maybe we get them On board as a sponsor We could be on the cover Of High Times Magazine Oh fuck That would be amazing Cyprus hell Yeah

You will be arrested Before you get Like off the plane Yeah Now that's all fiction We're not doing anything We've said enough bad things About the certain royalty involved So we don't need to be Before you get like off the plane. Yeah. Now, that's all fiction. We're not doing anything. Geez, we've said enough bad things about the certain royalty involved.

So we don't need to be dobbing ourselves into that. But yeah, so if you want to join up to that email list, like I said, we've got this – man, I've chosen this hotel. Like I've hit up a bunch of different hotels that I've stayed at before and honestly, this hotel that I hit up, I didn't think would even bother responding because it's the best one out of all of them. And they couldn't have been keener. They come back going, oh, really?

This sounds great, your podcast. And you sound like you've got this big social media reach. And you know what? We've got a place in the resort where you can record your podcast. The Trump Resort in Koh Samui. Who would have thought they'd be keen? Just keen to get their image back on track. They're fine to get people image back on track.

They're fine to get people from Australia to come there, that's for sure. You can't bring me over. Some of your kids can't come either, Gossie, unfortunately. Jill Rux, no, you can't come over. No, Jill cannot come. Yeah, so, man, it is so good. Like I said, we'll reveal all the details of this hotel, but they're going to be the official hotel of the Koh Samui International Podcast. Man, it is such a fucking great hotel.

And like Tommy, you have had reservations already privately and publicly about everyone staying in the same hotel. Yes. So I can't imagine. I will say I've since had other people hit me up and go, you are right to be concerned. It's not something I would ever do in a million years if I was you. Right, okay. Well, I think it's going to be cool. I mean, because we don't have to spend every second of every day with everyone.

I'm pretty sure this will be the first and only podcast festival at that hotel. This is going to be cool for people to listen back to when we're all dead from this trip. Because the sort of people that I think are the ones that think this is a good idea, and not the sort of shy retiring types either, I think, I think these are the people who are going to come over and go, what if we have enough beers if we could fucking kill Tommy and Carl?

Wouldn't it be funny? Yes, yes. Mushroom shakes. There's a lot of reasons people could die, actually, just for this podcast. Yeah. You know you usually have the drunk cast. Maybe it'll be like the hallucinocast. The for this podcast. Yeah. Maybe, you know, you usually have the drunk cast. Maybe it'll be like the hallucinacast.

The shroom cast. Yeah. Fuck, that's not bad. That is. Wasn't there a Meredith similar one? Yeah, I've done podcasts from Meredith where I've been off my guts. Fuck, that would be interesting, especially given, you know, look, we've put a loose sort of a message out to a bunch of comics just going availabilities if anyone's interested and that sort of thing.

We're big shot festival directors now. Yeah. It's amazing the respect you all of a sudden get when you're in control of one of these things. We're gouging everyone for prices. Let's make comics pay to register in the Kosa Movie Podcast Festival. Fuck. As guests on your show. Fuck. There's no way that's happening. If you play your cards right, you'll be Samui Podcast Festival. Fuck. As guests on your show. Yes.

Fuck. There's no way that's happening. If you play your cards right, you'll be on the road show. Yeah, exactly. We've talked about that. We've talked about running a road show for the podcast festival. Yeah, because there's an island half an hour away on the ferry, Copenhagen.

That could be our – we could go over there and do one night of the road show and make it the Copenhagen Podcast Festival. It's going to be great. Yeah. I hope the locals like us over there. So what was I up to? So, yeah, look, the hotel. That's great.

So the stuff that you're doing at Koh Samui, all of a sudden you go over to the nearby island and you're doing the roadshow gig and you're like, see, they just don't get it over here. Like those big city guys back in Koh Samui, they're just a bit more into it. What are the local references over here? Like it worked over in Koh Samui. Where's the a bit more into it. What are the local references over here? It worked over in Koh Samui

but you still don't know. Where's the local shithole? I was just in. PP Boo! Boo! They beat us last year in the cup final. Fuck that guy. Up the roosters. The PP roosters. The PP roosters.

I think they'd be all fighting over who's the PP shrooms and the Samui shrooms. The Koh Samui 10th grader. Is it a doco or Google Maps or something your parents were in or something? It's YouTube. Was it a doco or Google Maps? Google Maps is technically a doco.

Yeah, exactly. It's a document of the world. None of it's made up. It's not fiction. It's a doco or Google Maps. Google Maps is technically a doco. Yeah, yeah. It's a document of the world. None of it's made up. It's not fiction. It's a doco, sure. It was a webcam, a web stream. It was a... No, no, it wasn't. No, it was a YouTube...

Oh, sorry, yeah. It was someone's YouTube video, yeah. Yeah, yeah. It was some guy walking down the main street of Samui, main street of Chewing Beach. You wouldn't know this, Ray, but I'll quickly, quickly retell this for you, which is someone walked down with a GoPro on their chest

and I'm just watching this late at night one night and they walked in and I watch it for half an hour because I'm an idiot. And then right at the end, they swing over into a restaurant and I'm loving it because I've been there and I'm looking at it and they swing over and it's me and my mum and dad. And it's on YouTube. It blew my fucking mind.

It's so good. How many Coastal Muli videos have you watched? What? How many Coastal Muli videos have you watched to get to that? Oh, quite a few. Yeah. Yeah. I do.

I'm back on the treadmill at the gym and I do, I alternate between what I'm watching on the video screen. But I'm back in it. That's cute. So it's like you're running towards Thailand. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Except I'm running quite fast on it. But the guys are only dawdling down the street. So it's like,'re running towards Thailand Yeah Yeah Except I'm running quite fast on it But the guy's only dawdling down the street So it's like It's a bit weird It's like I'm in quicksand Going down the main street of Thailand Yeah It's like VR

How people say when you play a video game in it Where you're walking But you're not moving in real life Oh right It makes you feel really sick No it's like a bad dream You know when you're running And you can't get away

Yes Except it's a great dream And there's spiders there Yeah Yeah and then my dad turned into a goat. And I fucked him. Yeah. Thailand.

That's Thailand. Come along, everyone. So, yeah, great news. That is the offer that has come out to us is this great hotel. If you sign up, you'll find out all about it. Sign up to the email list and we will let you know. If you sign up, you'll find out all about it. Sign up to the email list and we will let you know.

But the offer is they are doing rooms for you guys way under what you can get anywhere online. Yes. So they're doing some very special deals. Great rate for – and the place looks – I'll back you up on this. The place looks great. It's amazing. It's so good. It's got this – and the most important thing in any resort is – the first thing I look at is the pool.

The pool is fucking massive. Yep. And it's on the beach. And it's quite very close to some of my favourite restaurants on the island. A certain cafe? No, but some of the other great ones. But we'll have to get a bus to Cafe 69. Yeah. This is my all-time favourite thing that's ever happened.

Carl looking up what he'd heard was the best eatery on the island, according to TripAdvisor. Great reviews. Goes to his girlfriend. We've got to go. This place is apparently the best eatery on the island, according to TripAdvisor. Great reviews. Goes to his girlfriend. We've got to go. This place is apparently the best. They get there. They discover the place is called Cafe 69.

And she goes, no way are we eating in here. Yeah, we go in there. It's all pink and all weird and whatever. I'll bet it was. Now, is that deliberate? It's all pink. Yeah, it must be. Could just be the address that they got given.

Yeah, it's probably like just 69 Koh Samui Street and they're like, oh, it's a cafe. That's what cafes do, isn't it? But like you said, dinner for two. Maybe there's just one guy who works in there who knows, who gets it and no one else does and he's just like, fucking look at all these people working for me. None of them know the true meaning of this place.

It's probably that thing where you – because it's such a tourist island. You know, you've got English backpackers and they've gone, oh, how do we make our business better? And two poms have just gone, call it Cafe 69. That means great food in England. Well, yeah, heaps of exciting developments there. Get on the Facebook and the Twitter for all the updates. Yes, and join the email list if you'd like to as well

So hopefully what we're aiming for is to make it as easy as possible for all you guys to come over because we really think it's going to be the experience of a lifetime. It's going to be insane. Yeah. Like we're so excited. When we get together and start talking about it, we get really excited about how crazy it's going to be. experience of a lifetime. It's going to be insane. Yeah. Like we're so excited.

When we get together and start talking about it, we get really excited about how crazy it's going to be. I didn't know they had drugs in Thailand. So now that Ray's shared that story, that's interesting information. Yeah. Okay. That's something to look forward to. Maybe it was just that island though.

That's not the same island we're going to. Wink, wink. Yeah. Goxy, you're a world traveller. Yep. This year I've been to Tasmania. Oh, very nice. Overseas?

Yeah. Well, we haven't done a podcast there, so that's impressive. Where did you go in Tasmania? Just Hobart and I was in and out on the same day. What for? I did a comedy show. So you're obsessed with driving everywhere? I can say I did a show.

I'm not like a, what do you call it, like a triple fret. I'm barely even a single threat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're possible of harm. You're not a full threat. So you love driving. That would have been a big thing for you because you don't take planes. You drive absolutely everywhere.

If I'm ever talking to you, you're usually driving from Brisbane to Melbourne for some reason. I even looked up, didn't go through it, but I looked up Melbourne to Perth. I know. It's like three, it's massive. I was trying to talk you out of it because you were honestly thinking about doing it. No, I didn't. No, I didn't know like that it was that long.

It's ridiculous. Yeah. It's a big country. It is, man, but like. You're driving across an entire continent by doing that. Yeah, it's crazy. But if you look at a map, it doesn't look like three days away. The one I was looking at is probably like those ones on the train

that aren't to scale. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know if any maps are to scale. You know those ones on the train where it's like... You're talking about the earth, Ben. You know those ones on a train where, like, in a city, even though they're only 100 metres apart, the same spacing as, like, the last two?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, right, right, right. This Ken Doan guy has fucking steered me wrong. It looked like on his little map like it was going to be one day. This tea towel's fucked. It's not even... I'm using, like, a McDonald's bag. I've gone past Grimace Land.

Yeah, I turned right at the Hamburglar. I'm still not in Perth. Fuck a girl. Yeah, you're treating it like it's a maze. So you're just only doing like hard left and right turns like on a grid. Oh, dead end. Fuck this.

Yeah, I'm well aware it's pretty crazy, but I do have a few reasons why I do it. You don't like flying? You like Mr. T. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, I just... You like Mr. T. I had bad food once.

B.O. Baracus? No, like, if you want this... I don't know if you want the serious end. It's pretty boring, but... Then we don't want it. What else is happening? Well, we'd better wrap this up, right? We're getting right near the end of this episode.

Okay. We've got your kids out the back watching a movie that's just about to end. Right. Yeah. Ray Badger, you're about to move to England. So, man, that's – you've been to England before? Yeah, I have. Oh, right.

I was going to say because I always find it crazy when someone – and people do do this where they go, yeah, I'm going to move here. I'm like, have you ever been there? No. How are you making the call to move somewhere you've never been? It frustrates me. I mean, you have to. Yeah, then you could never go anywhere, really.

Yeah, no, but I'm saying move somewhere. Yeah, yeah. No, I'm not moving there, moving there. I just got a two-year visa. So, like, I turned 31 at the end of last year and I got it because I had to turn it. Plus, when they listen to the Thailand bits of this podcast, it'll be shortened A little bit

But yeah No I've been there before When I was like 21 or something Went to the World Cup You were still off your head From Thailand Yeah

Partied a lot In the UK too And then went to Hang on you said You went to the World Cup Yeah in Germany Oh yeah I was going to say There was no World Cup

In England So it was the World Cup? Yeah, in Germany. Oh, yeah, I was going to say, there was no World Cup in England. So it was 2006 World Cup maybe? Yep. And yeah, it was a pretty good time.
