Today on The Little Dumb Dumb Club, a brand new episode
with Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds from The Dollop.
But before that, we've got to plug a couple of live gigs
that we've got coming up very quickly.
First of all, Perth, November the 19th at Rosie O'Grady's.
We are making our annual trek over to the West,
bringing some special guests with us.
What's your favourite thing about Perth, Carl?
My favourite thing will be catching the red-eye home.
Are you doing it?
I think I have to.
Oh, he's done it again.
You're a very vocal opponent of the red-eye flight.
Yeah.
I can't think of a way around it.
I have to be back on Monday.
You have to be back on Monday.
We could cancel the gig.
All right. Well, that could help me out back on Monday. We could cancel the gig. All right.
Well, that could help me out.
Guys, we're not doing the gig anymore because I want to be in my little bed on Monday morning.
And hey, my Sunday night just opened right up.
So if anyone's got a house party or anything I can come to, let me know.
I'm sure Perth really parties on a Sunday night as well.
I reckon Perth parties every night of the week.
Really?
Isn't it the – it's the Dexys capital of Australia as we discovered.
So why beat that into a drug like that that's going to keep you up
around the clock and not back it up?
Is that the number plate over there?
Yeah, the Dexy state.
Yeah, right.
Very nice.
So, yes, that is going to be awesome.
That's getting closer and closer.
Very much looking forward to coming over for that.
So, yeah, get your tickets.
Lovely, lovely guests. Like Tommy said,
always look forward to going over there for a couple of
days and hanging out with you guys all afternoon for a
big three-hour show or so.
Then the very next week, we're off to
Canberra, in a way, our nation's capital.
In many ways, our nation's capital.
Name more than two.
Well, I mean, in terms of Dexie's
consumption, it's not the capital. So that's
one that's off the list. All you're naming is reasons it's not the capital. Right. So that's one that's off the list.
All you're naming is reasons it's not the nation's capital.
I asked for reasons it's the nation's capital. Okay.
It's the capital of places that we're about to go to for a second time.
Very nice.
It's also the capital of places where I have one cousin who lives there.
Right.
All right.
No further questions.
This has sorted it all out in my head so that's
enough for you yep thank god two was a battle three would have been undoable all right changing
it's back to three uh oh three three this week um uh so yes that is going to be on november the 25th
uh yes that is selling very well already very much looking forward to our second time up there
it was a good time last year yeah Yeah, it's a nice little road
trip we're going to be taking, so we'll be nice and delirious
by the time we get up there. And we're in a
new venue, like we've been saying. No dirt floor
this year in a high-tech
USS Enterprise-style arena.
Yes, no venue that looks like a
small replica of somewhere that you'd go
see the Krusty Demons.
This place has got actual
floors. Not somewhere where you would look at and go,
this is where cunts lived in the 1700s.
Imagine that.
They didn't have running water.
They had scurvy.
It was fucked.
We're not doing a place in, we're not doing a gig in that.
Yeah.
So that's going to be good.
And then what do we got?
No places where Captain Cook once took a dump and went,
actually, this isn't good enough for my shit.
Are you deliberately mentioning Captain Cook every time we mention the old venue
or do you keep forgetting and resetting?
I just think of that place and I think of captain cook.
I think of me having a captain cook at that place and going,
what a shithole.
Oh, nice, nice.
I should have used that next week.
So that's it.
That's us sort of done for the end of the year, isn't it?
We had a few little sneaky things lined up.
We have some things lined up that you will find out about very soon.
In fact, we are going to announce one of them after this episode
with very pertinent links to the guests on this episode.
Yes, and the reason that we're not doing it up the front
is because we thought it would be weird to say
because it does not come up in the episode
because we confirmed this after this was recorded.
About five minutes after.
Yes.
So littledumbdumbclub.com for all those tickets.
You can also get our merchandise.
We've got new T-shirts on there.
Yep.
And at our live shows, we always bring along merch and whatever.
We've got about five or six or seven bloody T-shirts.
So come along, grab one of them.
I will say that was a high, it kind of had snuck up on me the number of t-shirts that
we have.
It was a point of personal pride for me having a look at our merch desk at the live show
we just did last Saturday.
All of these shirts, just like a nice little roll of them.
It looks cool.
We're going to have to do something else now.
We're done with t-shirts.
People, we're at t-shirt overload, I think.
Let's find something else to merch. Or we
just stop the podcast and become a full-time
t-shirt business. It's one or the other.
We become full-time Mambo. We're at a real
fork in the road.
Why don't Mambo start a podcast?
What if we did a... We should do a rip-off
Mambo t-shirt.
I just said no more t-shirts!
What about like a Dilruch,
like the farting dog, but it's Dilruch?
Yeah, then we've got to give Dilruch money.
Do we?
Don't we?
We didn't give Bintang any money.
Well, we had nothing to do with Bintang.
You know what?
The singlet we've got on sale that may or may not look a little bit like the Bintang logo.
I was in the gym the other day and there was a guy wearing a Bintang singlet in there,
looking very similar to our t-shirt.
Honestly, I reckon I walked past him five times going, fuck, there's
someone with our t-shirt in here. Great.
Every time I'm going, fuck, that's right, I already saw this guy.
Great, that's very good. Okay, so
also you can find the link to our Patreon, which
is a way that you can support the show
if you enjoy getting it for free every week.
And you can also get some sweet bonus content
in the mix, and part of that is us
reading out your name and opening it up to public ridicule.
That happens at the end of the podcast, so stick around for that, along with this big
special announcement.
Exactly.
Wow.
Lots of exciting stuff to listen to at the very end.
But you know what?
Listen to this episode right now.
It's a fucking ripper.
It's really funny.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
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 next to me on the floor,
the other half of the show, Carl Chandler.
G'day, dickhead.
You've missed out on a seat.
We're here in a hotel room.
You're perched up against the bed.
I'm absolutely fine on the floor.
I fucking love it.
It's your natural habitat.
It really is.
If only there was a bin that you could be sitting against, you'd be in heaven.
Yeah, well, close enough.
I'm sitting next to you.
Yeah.
Comedy.
Today on the show, two very dear mates of the Little Dum Dum Club in the country for
a bunch of sold out shows.
It's Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds from The Dollop.
Yay.
Everybody, let's get that bin for Carl.
Bin for Carl.
Bin for Carl. I guess I can start out by saying I'm confused why you get that bin for Carl. Bin for Carl. Bin for Carl.
I'm going to start out by saying I'm confused.
Why do you call that comedy up top?
Why do I call it comedy?
Because there was like a misdirection in there,
and it made me and the rest of the people in the room laugh a lot.
And so that's comedy.
And the people at home, they've lit up.
They're loving this.
They can't even hear you at the moment because they're still laughing.
This is paused.
It's hard to tell, actually. He called me a bin.
Didn't you hear it?
Because he's not a bin, but you look at him
and go, he could be. It's like the kind of
political satire that you do.
It's one of the many things
in my comic toolbox. Exaggeration.
When does this start going well?
Like this episode or the podcast as a whole
or our lives
yeah
I mean I think all three
so you guys came
and you did
the gig that I run
Catfish Comedy
you both did spots
there last night
very fun
and it was great
to have a lot of your fans
in through
through the door
yeah
there was a lot of
like me taking
people's money and then them kind of,
because I do the door at the gig, them kind of.
Oh, someone's doing well.
Slipped that in there, eh?
Bought a burrito this morning.
Yeah, things are good.
Yeah, people would kind of sneak past me and then, you know,
kind of pause for a second and go, I know your voice from somewhere.
Are you from the little dum-dum club?
And it's like, all right, you've heard me the three times
that you've listened to our show when the dollop have been on.
You know what I mean?
Like you clearly don't listen because otherwise you'd know
that I run this gig because I talk about it all the time.
But then there was a guy who, because you guys posted about it
on your Facebook and I went through and just saw like, you know,
it's like people tagging all their mates to like go to the show
and whatever.
Like the little Dum Dum Club fans do with us when we're doing a gig somewhere.
Yeah.
When they get really excited about our stand-up.
There's as many as three posts doing that.
But I saw a name that was like a guy who I'm friends with on Facebook
that I went to primary school with but like, you know,
one of those people who you're just friends because you went to school i've like i never catch up with him one-on-one or
anything so he comes through the door at the gig and goes oh hey oh hey man how you been oh you
work in the door here tonight i'm like oh no i'm one of the people that runs this thing and he's
like oh wow okay it's like hang on a minute yeah I plug this gig every week on my Facebook. So clearly you've got me hidden.
Oh, right.
You've just outed yourself as having blocked me from your page.
I like the idea that he's impressed.
He's like, well, my friend that I went to school with got the gig
of doing the door.
He's running the door.
Yeah.
How hopeless did he think I was as a 10-year-old that he's impressed
at this projection?
Look at you counting.
Unbelievable. What at you counting. Unbelievable.
What a Cinderella story.
Except she never got to the ball.
She just kept scrubbing the floors.
Yeah, in my yearbook I was voted most likely to have little plastic bags
full of 20-cent coins.
That's quite a category.
It's a real honour to fulfil that.
20-cent coins?
How much do you charge you for the gig?
60 cents.
People give us a dollar and they get two 20s back.
You know how maths works.
Well, I do now.
It was so great to go to a place that serves shitty American food.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
Really, really great.
But way more expensive.
Way more expensive.
Yeah.
Yeah, we do.
We're obsessed with your food except there's like a 300% markup on having a hot dog.
Why?
Or pulled pork or whatever the fuck you guys eat over there.
There's nothing.
Don't talk shit about it.
We just eat everything.
That really is the problem.
I just think, I know this is hacky, but we have to.
Why don't they make the whole plane out of the black box?
I mean, come on.
If the thing survives the crash, why is it not the whole plane
no but the outback really do sound the same yeah that's a good character the self-aware
hack so he's getting up and he's just doing dog shit gear but prefacing all of it i know i know
what's the deal with right it's writing premises they're very difficult and the punchlines are no picnic either.
That's my time.
But what were you saying?
The Outback Steakhouse is the only thing that we have.
We just call it the Steakhouse.
Of course, obviously.
You guys know it.
You guys have the shorthand.
The down the street Steakhouse.
Right.
But it's offensive
what that's made people think
about Australian food.
No, I think it's smart.
They have really...
I've never found out what a blooming onion is.
But what they did was they took American food and they just were like,
but it's from Australia.
Right.
And then there's enough people who are just like, oh, nice experience, huh?
You guys never heard of a steak before we rocked in.
No, that's true.
And I'll correct you there.
You've been a bit hoity-toity pronouncing it blooming onion.
It's blooming.
Oh, right, sorry.
There's no G there.
Drop that shit.
Get out of the ivory tower, Carl.
The queen's not writing the menu.
I love it.
Blooming Onion.
Looks like you've got a big night in the edit suite again tonight.
If you could chop that G out for me, it would be much appreciated.
I don't want my friend to look like a fucking idiot on this podcast.
But, Gareth, you got talking to someone who listens to both of our shows
at the gig.
Oh, yeah.
I was talking to someone who
was going to bring her son to
a dollop show while we're here
and she
was kind of approaching the subject and was
like, yeah, well you know, some
of the language, and he goes, it's
okay mum, I listen to Dum Dum Burgers
and he thought it was called
Dum Dum Burgers because it's burgers
That's great! that's great please change the
name please listen to dum dum burger so that's a great strategy so you have half your title is just
in the title and then the other half i have to go to the artwork for right it's like a rebus yeah
that's great you work it out we're not going to spell it out. Man, that's awesome. Dum Dum Burgers.
Dum Dum Burgers.
Yeah, nice.
Welcome to Dum Dum Burgers.
How old was the kid?
The kid's 30.
No, I think he was young.
I think he was like 10 or something.
Really?
He was a 10-year-old there.
Yeah, he snuck a Dum Dum Burgers in.
Right.
There's a 10-year-old who listens to this.
There's a lot of little kids that listen to the dollop.
I suspect there's a lot of irresponsible parents playing podcasts in the car.
Yeah, but isn't that what being a parent is all about?
But I do think it's different now because I think we look at it like,
what if you were to hear a podcast when we were kids?
But now with all the shit you can watch online,
it's truly like this is not the worst shit out there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, Net Nanny didn't work.
You can get porn if you want, whenever you want it.
If you listen to a podcast, cool, well done.
What is the worst shit out there?
Man, there's some terrible stuff.
What's the worst podcast out there?
I don't know.
I think Eddie F's.
Well, Eddie's is done, and no, it isn't.
But I don't know.
There's so many.
What are there, 10?
There's a lot of them.
Yeah, there's Dum Dum Burger.
There's you guys.
There's Dum Dum Burger.
There's us.
There's a couple others.
Eddie Yift, apparently.
There's 10 and depressingly enough,
I don't think this even cracks the top 10.
So that's a sad day for us.
Yeah.
I can tell you what it is and it doesn't exist yet.
It's when Steel Saunders starts doing a cat podcast.
Oh.
That's going to be the worst podcast.
Steel Wool?
How many cat podcasts do you think there are?
I know of one.
He's been on one.
Yeah.
Oh, really?
Yeah, it was on one called The Purrcast.
But it was actually, it was fun.
The Purrcast.
Now tell us what the real name is.
The Purrcast.
Let's start a rivalry with the Percast.
Let's just start getting on here and shitting on them every week.
I would challenge...
Yeah, let's get the nerdiest podcast out and we'll fight them.
Actually, you do a video game podcast, so we have to fight you.
Tommy might have to fight himself.
What's going on in gaming?
You beat your big into gaming, huh?
It's a pretty cool scene.
Women very well respected.
How are you able to control the console with all the blowjobs?
This eight minutes is the longest I've gone in recent memory
without sculling a Mountain Dew.
So I'm a little on edge.
Please forgive me.
Sculling a Mountain Dew.
One time, I can't remember what it was,
but I want to bet with my wife or something.
I don't know what happened.
She goes, okay, I will blow you while you play a video game.
What?
I couldn't do it.
Shut up.
I was just like, I can't.
It's just too.
Hey, it's like this for the percast.
This is a little too lowbrow for the little dumb dumb club.
Amazing offer.
I know, but I couldn't.
It was just too weird.
I couldn't do it.
But what video game?
Carl, that should not be the first question.
No, that's a fine question.
It's a good fucking question.
Because I'm like playing.
I'm like, get off my dick.
I got to kill this guy.
I know you're like watching Miss Pac, playing Miss Pac-Man and going, yeah, fucking swallow
those pellets.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Eat those white ghosts.
It's the horniest video game, isn't it?
Miss Pac-Man
holy shit yeah
and then right when
you're about to finish
it starts blinking
and the music speeds up
oh here it is
here it is
here it is
I'm ghosting
I'd love to know
what this bet was
like
I can't even remember
because she must have
been very confident
that she would win
to have that
yeah
yeah I don't remember what it was she was very been very confident that she would win to have that. Yeah. Yeah, I don't remember what it was.
She was very confident, but she's often confident that I'm always right.
So it's that kind of relationship.
Is she on Twitter?
No, she's not on.
Oh, man.
She hates social media.
At Mrs. Dave Anthony.
Oh, that's amazing.
I wish.
Can you imagine?
I would love to see a Twitter fight between you and your wife.
Because you versus everyone else is bad enough on Twitter.
But her with a different political standpoint,
I would pay Twitter to see that.
She doesn't have a different political standpoint, though.
She's totally on board.
No, Dave did a smart thing, which is he married somebody
who is totally separated from anything that he does.
And has probably very little interest in it while being supportive.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got one of them. being supportive. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I got one of them.
You do?
You guys both have girlfriends now?
Yeah.
Well, no, not really.
We met Tommy's girlfriend.
Yeah, we met Tommy's girlfriend.
She was lovely.
Great kissers.
Oh, what?
Yeah.
Did she play video games with you?
It's weird.
Did she make video games with you? It's weird. Did she make any wages, perhaps?
I bet that I can't suck your dick while playing Ghosts and Goblins.
The house always wins.
All right, what do I get if I win?
I'm going to put the goblin in Ghosts and Goblins.
Well, we did it, guys.
We turned gaming culture into the second most problematic thing.
Oh, no.
Does your girlfriend like
gaming? Is she into that?
She likes it a bit, yeah. She plays a little
bit of stuff, but not like, she's
not super hardcore or anything.
How long have you guys been together? Just over a year.
Where'd you meet her? Is she a comedy?
Just through friends.
She wasn't a comedy?
Tommy realizes right now he's in a All right. She wasn't a comedy? No.
Tommy realizes right now he's in a snake pit.
A comedy groupie.
She wasn't a comedy.
I'm rooting Billy Madison on VHS.
Tommy is going out with a comedy.
A comedy groupie would not seek out Tommy.
Tommy, how far?
She used to go to your room before you were going out.
Yeah, she came to the gig a couple of times.
Yeah, right.
So she's a skill.
So you had to overcome that to get her to like you.
Yes, yes.
Yeah.
I'm great is the point of the story.
This is all good stuff for me.
I don't see why.
I don't see what the problem is.
I'm happy for you.
She is a comedy.
You're going out with the genre.
Yes, the whole genre.
That's how committed I am. Yeah, that's her
name, Carmody.
Last name Eddie.
First name Com. Yeah. Com's not
a girl's name. What are you talking about?
That's the issue. That's silly.
Save this for after the episode.
A certain Patreon. Yeah, that's serious
then. I'm in serious territory.
Did you have a... Carl's squatting everyone. I'm getting up. He's serious then. I'm in a serious territory. Did you have a... Carl's squatting, everyone.
I'm getting up.
He's getting up.
I'm literally getting erect.
It's a two-part process.
He's dropping his pants.
What's going on?
Oh, my God.
Who wants to play video games?
Who wants to bloom an onion?
So it's a year.
Did you do anything
for the anniversary?
We didn't really
because we kind of both forgot.
Oh, you guys are perfect.
That's a perfect woman for you.
Perfect.
Well, we were kind of hanging out for a bit before like making it a –
Making it a –
Making it out.
You were just fucking.
Yeah.
Sure.
What else is going on, guys?
Tommy, why uncomfortable?
First question, what's her first name?
And second question, what's her last name?
And her tag's on all of the social media accounts
so everyone can make friends with her.
Yeah, that's what she wants.
That's really what she wants.
I can't think of anything worse for any woman in the world
than to be somehow associated with little Dum Dum.
Dum Dum Burger, thank you very much.
Like the fans of any podcast sliding into your DMs
has got to be a nightmare for any kind of partner.
Yeah, it's not great.
No, I go to great lengths to not mention the name of my partner.
That has to, I would imagine.
Oh, especially with what you've been through.
But you guys probably are very aware of that
because you know that people will just have fun with it
and you're not looking for that, right?
Yes.
All of that.
Yeah. All of that. Yeah.
All of that.
That's so funny.
I mean, because you guys have, I'd say,
some on the edge of obsessive fans.
Has anyone tried to track down your wife online, Dave?
Oh, yeah.
I have.
She gets a lot of.
Can't find her.
Have you met Dave's wife?
Yeah, a bunch of times.
Can't find her online, though.
She had an account that was just basically Instagram for our kid,
you know, pictures of our kid.
And she started getting tons of requests to friend her,
and she just left.
Want to come over and play Donkey Kong, et cetera.
Yeah, et cetera, on and on.
Yeah, so, and she's on Facebook, but she uses,
she has a different name name but sometimes people will still
and what is it?
why don't you go ahead
and get that name out there
it's so close
it's Carl Chandler
that's a good one
that's a good one
that's a good thing
that wasn't taken
that's a good one
it's a bit silly
it's a bit silly
it's a bit over the top
she sounds hot
it's no calm Eddie
but what is?
sounds a bit made up
for my life
I like grounded names
personally yeah I've got I've got a bunch of friends that Know what is. Sounds a bit made up for my life. I like grounded names, personally.
Yeah, I've got a bunch of friends that, like, I think they listen to this a bit,
but they're way more into you guys, and they always tell me that,
and it's never like rubbing it in.
They're just like, oh, my God, have you heard the dolloper in town?
I'm like, fucking yes.
I've heard.
I'm going to go sit on the floor.
I got a date with some carpet carpet if you know what I'm saying
Dum Dum Burger's out
yeah
my partner is like
yeah
she got hit up
to go to you guys tonight
by friends that were like
you know
we're gonna go to the dollop
and she was like
are you going to
Carl's thing on the weekend
no
we're gonna be wiped from the dollop yeah she was like, are you going to do Carl's thing on the weekend? No.
We're going to be wiped from the dollop.
Yeah, we're going to be exhausted from that.
This is going to be really fun.
It's just like falling off a cliff,
like the enjoyment of the dollop and then Carl's thing.
It's like a nosedive.
I like that our podcast is now Carl's thing.
What?
I'm changing it from Dumb Dumb Burger to Carl's thing now. This has been a lot of changing.
I think we're coming out with some good stuff, though.
So it can be like Blue's Clues, Carl's thing.
You're this little, it's like you kind of drawn as a little animated dog,
and I'm like that guy in that who ended up killing himself,
who comes in and is like, hey, boys and girls, where's Carl?
I like that.
Did he kill himself?
Which bit?
You know what bit.
Did he?
That was the rumor rumor that was like the
big i don't think he killed urban legend did the dog solve it by tracking the clues
oh my god steve the ultimate clue yeah to the west gate i can see what's going on here um but
yeah that's that was the old thing when there used to be rumors about people killing themselves or
people dying there's no rumors anymore you just look. Yeah, exactly. So we can find out whether he's dead or not right now.
Yeah, but now you can act like someone's dead.
Like every once in a while, I'll just do RIP in someone's name
and then people flip out.
It is a great thing to do.
It's great.
I always say I'm just practicing.
I'm getting ready.
It was better when I was in college.
We said that David Hasselhoff died and it became reality during the
day because nobody could figure it out
exactly we did that
that happened with Michael Jackson like three times
so when Michael Jackson died
everyone was like good one
we should start one now
over the course of this podcast like tweet out
something now and then see like by the time
we're done recording if it's gotten any traction
my favourite one was when they said there was a rumor big rumor that bobby mcferrin had thrown
himself off a cliff and died because i i love it that a because it's like the perfect he was the
one saying don't worry be happy yeah and he threw himself off a cliff b he doesn't live in a fucking
warner brothers cartoon no one's throwing himself off a cliff well they don't understand himself
with an anvil what a tragedy he walked 30 feet before he realized there was no cliff below him,
and then he fell.
My favorite one is in the Searching for Sugar Man documentary,
how there's, because no one can find that guy,
and the rumor goes around that he's in the middle of a concert,
he's pulled out a shotgun and blown his head off.
What a way to go out.
Like, fucking hell.
People aren't quite sure if it happened or not.
It was just a rumor. Let's keep it to ourselves. What a way to go out. Like, fucking hell. People aren't quite sure if it happened or not. Surely.
It was just a rumour.
Let's keep it to ourselves.
It won't make the press or anything.
We don't want to embarrass him.
Doesn't make his Wikipedia page.
This is a more special gig if we all just keep it to ourselves.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, last time we did a podcast with you guys, it was in a hotel.
Did you wear that hat because you were coming here?
Yeah.
I've got a Liverpool Football Club hat on. Do you understand?
And it's the thing that me and you both support,
isn't it? What you're doing is violence.
It is a hate crime.
I've got a big red hat on.
A red soccer hat. You like that. You've got a big dickhead
hat on. A big dickhead hat.
It's got a 47 on the side.
Is that the last time they won?
That's a long time ago. That's actually longer ago than when we did win. It was got a 47 on the side. Is that the last time they won? That's a long time ago.
That's actually longer ago than when we did win.
It was not as long ago as that.
I think it's tremendous that you guys have just settled into the seventh spot
and that's where you're going to stay.
We're in the Champions League.
Liverpool Football Club won 7-0 yesterday morning.
Keep in mind that I host a video games podcast when I say this.
You guys sound like fucking losers right now.
That's been kept in mind. You didn't have to say this. You guys sound like fucking losers right now. That's been kept in mind.
You didn't have to say that.
We're talking about physical exercise.
If you want to leave the room,
you can. You can come back in.
You're talking about watching other people do physical exercise.
Yeah, I don't know how much exercise that is, Carl.
Sitting on the couch at 6am
jerking your dick over these guys.
You're not on the bench running wind sprints.
I don't jerk my dick to football, buddy.
Yeah, and it was 5.30 Nazis.
So that's getting up even earlier.
That's more exercise.
I jerk my dick after I watch football.
Before I play video games, when I get it, jerk for me.
I'm also not talking about masturbating.
I literally jerk my dick.
I mean, Dave, I guess all of us are wondering,
what is masturbation to you?
You know, masturbating when you put it in a mug.
That's exactly what I was going to bring up.
None of that.
We did the last time we had you guys on the show
in a studio episode.
It was in a hotel room in Sydney
when Ronnie Chang generously sponsored the episode
to fly us up.
Yeah, which I heard was a fine trip with no speed bumps.
Absolutely correct.
Now carry on with the story.
No, that was great.
That was very good.
For the people who listened to that episode a year ago,
Tommy Daslow missed his plane and was very, very frantic.
Well, hey, we both missed our plane.
Yeah, because you sat at the gate next to it and were just like,
well, they don't go to all the gates.
There's Sydney here.
That must be it.
Yeah.
Why look at those convenient numbers they give you on the ticket?
That's a lot of work, isn't it?
Yeah.
Hey, I come from Maribor.
There's likely to be one plane there.
I thought there was one plane up there.
Anyway, it was all fine, wasn't it, in the end?
Yeah, you got to see me kick a bin, but in the end it was-
You did too, yeah?
You kicked yourself, huh?
You got very-
Oh, the king of the callbacks.
Hey, that's just one.
Now that's what masturbating is.
You kick your own bin.
Why don't they make the whole airport out of the bin material?
That's what I want to know.
That's crazy.
What's the deal?
Cool, let's just go back to the first thing we said in the episode.
What's the first thing we said?
Hey, mates.
Hey, mates.
Oh, yeah.
Imagine saying hey to mates. Sorry, Carl. So we were in the first thing we said in the episode. What's the first thing we said? Hey, mates. Hey, mates. Oh, yeah. Imagine saying hey to mates.
Sorry, Carl.
So we were in a hotel.
We were in a hotel.
And we did, because you guys do a, the dollop is like a history podcast where you talk about
Paul Bunyan every week or some shit, right?
It is a history podcast.
Yeah.
Paul Bunyan fucking cast.
I get it.
We do a lot of him.
Someone with Wikipedia on the way here.
Paul Bunyan.
He really jumped into American history there, didn't he? He's a good hero.
How many episodes have you done on that guy?
Paul?
We did a two-parter on Bunyan.
Well, the second one was mainly the Blue Ox.
How many episodes on the Apples?
We did five on the Apples.
But they're all different.
They're all like different takes on it.
Some Macintosh, some Pink Ladies.
The Honeycrisp one is amazing.
Golden Delicious was unbelievable.
I can't believe the Golden Delicious did that.
Yeah, neither can I.
Killed the president.
Killed the president.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Now, I wonder if all my friends like your bunion cast more than they like our show.
It's a good one.
Very angry.
We sort of turned into one of your shows's turned into one of your shows because like
i feel like it just turned into one of our shows you you flew up to talk about yourself yeah but
then you talked about you talked about my history yeah i guess i guess that's what it turned into
well we listened about the pajamas the pajamas yeah yeah yeah which was um so i thought i was
racking my brains i thought i'll give you another story to to I'll regale you with another story. Did you do a show after that in pajamas?
No.
No, no, no.
You posted pictures.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, you did.
We did a live stand-up show.
And you wore the pajamas.
Yeah, and through talking about that,
we ended up getting Peter Alexander,
the pajama magnate.
You don't need to explain.
Sent us free pajamas.
Because his niece
Listens to the Dum Dum Burger
I mean Tommy's emotional
Over the free PJs
You guys got
Fucking free pajamas
For your two of us
That's amazing
The sweetest thing
That's ever happened
Is to Dum Dum Burger
Three Jimmy Jammies
Yeah yeah
Both very feminine
I have to say
Yeah
Mine had like pink
Something from Frozen on it
And you
I think you took the ones
That had penguins or something on them.
I don't know.
I don't wear them.
Are they soft?
Are they soft?
They're soft, yeah.
Yeah, you like them?
I like them a lot.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I'm just going to say that any further engagement with Dave,
he is taking it sexual.
I can tell from his body language.
Do you want to bet on how soft they were?
Are you wearing them now under those pants?
That would be amazing.
Doing it Chandler style.
That's right.
I had a friend that once had to go to hospital because he was at school.
He had to go to hospital.
He was running this crazy fever.
And when they got to hospital to sort of like go, man,
we can't figure out what's wrong with him.
All right, we're going to have to, you know, like really,
really sort of bring in another doctor.
The other doctor comes in and then goes, you know that he's wearing
pyjamas underneath his real clothes, don't you?
And he was just wearing, he'd just gotten up in the morning
and forgotten that you've got to take off pyjamas.
And he just put another couple of sets of clothes on over the top.
Have you never done that?
So that's why he's got the fever.
How does the second doctor know this?
He just comes in and automatically knows?
He was a specialist.
He was a specialist.
I'm the pajama doctor, and he's tested positive.
He has them on.
He does have them on.
He actually has four days' worth of clothes on because he forgot.
So he's just been adding.
He's got a case of the Fridays.
Yeah.
Get the jaws of life.
Cut him out of all these clothes.
All right, hurry up.
Oh, they sliced him open like a blooming onion.
So this is what I always love about these kinds of things in like,
is this primary school?
Yeah.
Yeah, where like how do you let that get out?
Do you know what I mean?
How do you let people, that's bad PR right there.
You've got to squash that story.
No, he did.
He did because I didn't find out about it
until his 21st birthday
when his mum got up
and told the story
and we were like,
fucking thank you.
Yes.
Oh man, so funny.
But yeah,
I was telling you guys
about the phenomenon
of me doing stand-up
in pyjamas.
Yeah.
How is that a word?
The movement.
That fits there. The movement. That is that a word? The movement.
That's not a word that should be applied to it.
What does phenomenon mean?
Culture can't wrap its head around it, Carl.
It is the stranger things of outfits.
That sounds right.
If it was being written about in a magazine,
the headline would have been,
Carl Chandler is having a moment. Yeah. Yes.
As Carl's on the red carpet at his PJs.
Carl, who are you wearing?
Pete Alexander.
Just one pair?
Or did he send you more than one pair each?
Two pairs.
Two pairs, yeah.
That's it, not two?
One for Tommy. Guy owns a company.
He couldn't send you like five?
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that's a good point.
That's a good point.
But he's good enough advertising. Not that that he needs our help but he's nice listens
so now he's there's someone in a boardroom right now going like you see the dum-dum bounce yeah
look at the profits in the third quarter yeah exactly it seems like it'd probably be more the
opposite sales have just plummeted and we can't work out why. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your number's up to like a thousand yet?
Nearly.
Listeners?
Nearly.
Nearly.
Yeah.
I mean, only 600 off.
It's closing in.
It's close.
We sold out Adelaide, by the way.
Oh, did you?
Yeah.
Right.
We don't want to talk about it, though.
Right.
Cool.
Maybe if we bang on about Ned Kelly for a bit, we'll get some business.
Adelaide or Bunyan country, as we call it.
Let's do an Aussie version of theirs, the Bloom and Bunyan podcast.
We're just talking about the history of us going over
and having shit times in Adelaide.
That would be good.
In many ways, this is a history podcast because it's like us
not learning from our previous mistakes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And just trapped in our own personal history
or we just go around in a loop for eternity.
It's less a history podcast and more people who don't learn from history are destined
to repeat it podcast madness is doing the same thing and expecting different results
so i was trying to think of why i finished doing the pajamas. Why I stopped doing the...
Carl, we all know why.
It was absolutely fucking insane.
It was fucking ridiculous.
It's the craziest thing to do.
I can't figure out why I just stopped wearing that clown suit all the time.
Why did I grow out of my pajama phase?
Why did I stop punching myself in the dick every morning when I woke up?
I'm a pajimian. Hi, everybody.
Well, apart from it just getting too hot when I put my street clothes on afterwards and get into the weekend.
So did you have underwear on underneath your pajamas or were you free-flowing?
Oh, fuck.
Did I?
You must have.
No, I did.
I did.
I definitely did.
Silk will show the definition.
You're like we're just doing that last year's episode all over again.
I'm into it.
It's a deeper exploration.. I'm into it. It's a
deeper exploration. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was, um...
A revisit. It used to kill.
It used to fucking kill. You, right?
My soul, but also the audience.
This is it. We're literally just doing the HD
remake of last year's episode.
No, we're doing the director's commentary
of last year's podcast. Let's listen to it.
Yeah. We'll talk over it.
This is a new thing.
Right.
People can't hear this, but there's some sweet CGI stuff going on in the background of the
conversation this time.
Yeah, yeah.
So what happened was, what ended it was, I did a real open mic-y room where there was
just comics there.
And so I went there and went, you know what, I'm not going to get in the pajamas just for
these people.
Because it's not audience.
They know that I wear pajamas.
These guys all know me.
And I'm trying out new stuff.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
So I just did the show.
Did anybody know who you were?
You know this next guy from pajamas.
Guys, give it up for Carl Chandler.
Who the fuck is this guy?
Yeah.
Who's fucking Clark Kent up there?
We want to see Superman.
Yeah, totally.
Yeah.
Absolutely. You're Clark Kent and your pajama want to see Superman. Yeah, totally. Yeah, absolutely.
You're Clark Kent and your pajama, you're Superman.
Yes, yes, exactly.
My one weakness is comedy.
Your kryptonite is punchlines.
He's getting weaker.
So I did the show right.
And so I did it without the pajamas.
So in the show, a guy who was like a sort of reasonably well-known guy that's done like had a TV show, had profile, a well-known guy.
Lawrence Mooney.
No, no, not him.
I said well-known.
So this guy comes in.
He comes in and he watches the show and I'm like, oh, wow,
this is weird because this guy never drops in anyway.
So it's sort of weird and we were like, oh, wow, an actual weird because this guy never drops in anyway. So it's sort of weird.
And we were like, oh, wow, an actual famous guy is coming
into this shithole gig.
That's sort of funny.
Anyway, after the show, he hits me up and goes, rings me up and goes,
and this is, you know, again, this is me one year into comedy.
He hits me up and goes, man, I like what you did up there.
I'd like you to come and support me at this big gig I'm doing.
And I'm like, wow.
You know, a year in I get to do this support of this big guy,
this famous guy from TV.
Let me tell you something.
I feel very uncomfortable right now.
I'm worried.
I don't like what's happening.
I'm worried.
This is just a very successful story that's due to come up.
I'm dying inside right now and I haven't even heard it.
Is there a reason you don't want to say who it is?
Totally.
And you'll find that out coming up later on Dumb Dumb Burger.
There was a little bit of foreshadowing going on.
So I get booked and I'm genuinely excited because this guy's got profile
and everything and I'm literally saying to people, man,
this could break me.
You know, like this guy's got profile.
I could be touring.
If this goes well, I could be touring all around.
Oh, it's going to break you all right.
I could be touring all around the country.
This could be really big for me. I then find out. Get a new set of pyjamas. Yeah, it's going to break you, right? I could be touring all around the country. This could be really big for me. I then
find out... Get a new set of pajamas.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fancy digs.
I then find out
that the gig that I've got to do is on the
same night as my work Christmas party.
I'm like, fuck! Because that's like the
best night of the year. Fuck, who gives a shit?
No, no, no. But this is like
when you're like, you know,
in your 20s and it's like the only time you can.
Okay, so I'm in my 20s.
I have a dream of being a professional stand-up comedian.
But Dave, some people you work with are getting together with eggnog.
It's the night.
Okay, no, you make sense.
You make sense.
Yeah, you're not listening.
I see the dilemma.
No, throw your career in the Tommy.
Three. There make sense. I see the dilemma. No, throw your career in the Tommy. Three.
There it is.
It's good now. The golden number.
Don't work Christmas parties. They're awesome.
They're great. It's like near Christmas and
everyone gets to go out and get drunk.
Your first qualifier for why they're so
good is that it's near Christmas.
Yeah.
These people with five days a week are having a thing Your first qualifier for why they're so good is that it's near Christmas.
These people I'm with five days a week are having a thing where I go hang out with them. I get to see them at night and piss on my dreams at the same time.
Three of them are probably going to get drunk enough to tell me what they really think of me.
It's going to be sick.
Hey, look, I'll take it from you two, but this is about an office job.
You don't fucking understand.
This is a job.
He was pointing at Gareth when he said that.
Okay, okay.
So you're torn for some reason that none of us understand.
Yeah, yes.
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah, so I have to give up the greatest night of the year.
The greatest night of the year to go and do this gig.
Oh, what a night.
Boy, this gig sounds like a burden now.
Yeah, well, it's just like, which should I do?
I mean, so I'm torn.
So I'm going, no, I do want to become
this world famous comedian.
So I'm going to go
to support this guy,
this big gig.
I mean,
I also want to kiss Stacey
under the mistletoe.
Yes!
There'll be other parties
when I'm a comedian.
Totally!
How hard is Stacey?
I can do shots with Bob!
Bob and I can do shots!
And this guy's offering me
the gig of a lifetime.
Be on TV
or photocopy my ass.
I mean,
that's kind of like a form of television.
Man, fuck, you know what? I'm going to quit
comedy and go back to a day job. This sounds good.
Yeah, it sounds great.
I was going to stick with comedy,
but fucking Christmas
office parties are so great.
I just stayed in a cabin. I mean, instead of being in comedy,
I get to go and drink with all my friends at a
bar late at night. You can't do that at comedy.
I just get a job full timetime at an office Christmas party.
You just do that year-round.
Why don't they make the whole job out of the work Christmas party?
I mean, we're laughing, but I actually got offered the role
in the last Jurassic Park movie, and I turned it down
because my brother was having a pool party.
And the dates really didn't need, they could have fixed it, but I was like, I want to be
focused on the party.
I like that you said you got offered the role.
Yeah, the role.
I was going to be the part.
I was going to be the Diplodocus.
The dinosaur.
Okay.
All right.
Wow, man, that bit I didn't even think was going to be funny.
So wait until you get to the rest of the bit.
So back to the story where you have no idea what priorities are.
Yes.
So I went to the gig.
I go to the gig.
And what the gig is, is because this guy, because he's Canadian.
Is he a Canadian comedian?
He's not a Canadian.
Is he Canadian?
He's a stand-up Canadian.
Okay.
That's different.
He's not.
You can't even pronounce the word Canadian.
You are so eloquent.
I'm still thinking about that sweet office party I could have gone to. He's not. You can't even pronounce the word comedian. You are so ill-equipped.
I'm still thinking about that sweet office party I could have gone to.
That's a great opener for a gig.
Hi, guys.
I'm here to do some chem and comment.
Fuck.
I'm a chemist.
Who's up for some stand-up?
Canada.
I'm a kennel.
Oh, fuck.
Ah, shit.
I'm a late-night Canadian.
That's my time.
So I go to it.
This guy is, shall we say, an ethnic comedian.
Yes.
Okay.
So you're in that genre.
Like Will Anderson or Dave Hughes.
Not those guys.
They're the opposite of that.
They're very white and very from Australia.
Dave doesn't see color.
Right, right, right.
He doesn't see Canada.
I get it.
So I get to the gig and realize that- Where is the gig?
Is it a big venue?
It's at the office.
No, no, no.
It's far away from the office.
There's my quandary.
So it's in what I then find out to be a very Italian sort of club.
Yeah, okay.
An Italian club.
Yeah.
Is that a thing?
Yeah.
Do you call them Italian clubs? you call them italian mafia hangout
no i'm not talking about that i'm on air sure sure you like those kneecaps okay
so i go there and go oh wow and see the audience and there's a lot of there's a lot of old women
there's a lot of old women who english is not their first language. And I'm walking in there going, pajamas have got 100% strike rate.
Yeah, pajamas are.
Yeah.
Absolutely bulletproof.
How could they not?
Absolutely bulletproof.
How could they not?
Yeah.
But this was, you got booked for this off the back of doing a gig without the pajamas.
Exactly.
Is that the story?
Exactly.
But you recognize the venue is probably going to receive pajama Carl better than real Carl.
Totally.
No, it's a pro-pajama audience.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So were you, before this,
were you thinking about giving up the pajamas?
No, no, no.
Having just not done them at that one gig?
That was just an accident.
It's a home run.
Pajamas are a home run.
Pajamas are a home run.
That's actually chapter one of my comedy book.
Actually, that's the title.
So I go in there and go, well, this is a big Italian.
You know, the audience, English is not their first language.
Good for you.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
I've seen your act.
I think that's actually very helpful.
Can I take a punt on what their first language was?
Yes.
Italian.
Whoa, how did you get that?
That's good.
That's good.
I've told you this story before.
Yeah, you must have heard that before.
I'm looking at your notes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So think you know if it's if it's not their first language then you know this is only going to be a bonus if i've got something visual for them to
look at you know international language of sleep attire yes right yeah if it's not out loud funny
it's going to be visually funny like right totally right yeah no i think treat it like a silent film
yeah yeah yeah.
Like Mr. Bean.
He crosses the language border.
Everyone can find that funny.
Totally.
Especially when I drive on stage in my three-wheeled car.
So I get there, I go, right, well, I'm doing a pro job.
I'm bringing out the hits, you know, the hits you have one year in.
And I've got the pyjamas and I walk on stage.
And the setup to me, you know, showing the pajamas is i sort of strip off i do a bit of a setup and i strip off
and so i do this right so you take sorry you can't just jump past this you you go up there in
clothing yes and then you slowly reveal that underneath it you're a pajama man yes exactly
are you talking about it while you're doing it yes i, I'm pretty sure I set this up on the last podcast,
but to retell it very briefly, I do a little bit of a setup like,
I've got some weird thoughts at night and I think, you know,
they sound a bit weird, but I think they sound a bit more normal
if I tell them in the attire I'm wearing when I'm thinking
of these weird thoughts.
It's so amazing that you never killed yourself.
So these Italian women see you start to take your clothes off
and they're all sitting there thinking,
Santa Maria.
Yeah, yeah.
Matta bene.
Whatever is Italian for this looks shit.
A neck of yourself.
So I start doing that.
And warning signs straight away.
Because if I do it anywhere else,
as soon as you take the street clothes off and the pajamas come out,
people are already laughing normally.
Normally.
But I'm hearing stunned Italian silence.
Yeah.
It's the best kind of Italian silence.
But you also can't go, you know what, never mind.
I'll just do the regular stuff once you reveal your pajama top.
Yeah, actually, cars are weird, aren't they?
Imagine that being a stripper and doing that.
Like just a straight stripper and going, oh, nothing?
All right, I'll just put them back on.
You know what, never mind.
Yeah, I'll dance with my tracksuit pants on.
Now there'll be no cock for anyone.
So I do this.
I start to take them off.
I'm getting nothing.
There's no reaction from the people.
I look side of stage to see the headliner guy who's booked me,
who is now looking in absolute shock because I realize, oh, that's right.
He booked me without seeing any of the pajamas.
So he's seeing me do this pajamas thing and going, what?
What's this?
So then I do the jokes and it's getting absolutely nothing.
It's so awkward.
It's so awkward because you're so committed.
Yeah, yeah, totally.
You're in pajamas.
Like there's no –
No, no, you don't go to the hits.
You don't go to your closer that doesn't work with the pajamas.
You're in the pajama material.
Because I hadn't had this experience.
The pajamas were gold.
They always worked.
And then all of a sudden, if there's no reaction,
experience the pajamas were gold they always worked and then all of a sudden if you if there's no reaction it's very it turns from me to being this eccentric you know crazy comedy genius into
some cunt in a pajamas yeah the more effort you're going to in anything the more crushing when it
doesn't get there yeah because you just hung up there going well here i am a big old fuckhead yeah
yeah totally totally and there's and so i'm doing 10 minutes and it's just the longest 10 minutes ever it's just me saying stuff and people looking at me being so confused
and a woman and a woman in the front row very loudly saying what does this mean
because it's not even a heckle it's just a woman trying to understand what's happening yeah i just want answers yeah
i just want answers it's fine i'm not even angry i just would like to know yeah so i look side of
stage and the headliner guy is just fucking hating it and he's just giving me the the the cut off at
the neck signal you know just just get off stage just get off because he's also told me this very
elaborate uh setup of me saying a big spiel about the DVDs
that he's going to sell.
And so I start to – I cut it off early and I start to say the DVD stuff
and he goes, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
Just get off.
Oh, wow.
I don't need the pyjama guy selling my DVD and tarnishing the DVDs.
Wow.
Holy shit.
People are going to think he's on there or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or he touched them.
Yeah.
So I go, all right, all right, I'll just get off.
I'll just get off.
And I go off and I go, man, this is the fucking toughest crowd of all time.
Fuck, this is the worst thing.
I walk off.
This guy's fucking hating me as he walks past me.
Won't shake my hand on the way past.
Oh, my God.
I go off stage.
He comes on and you can see him just going, fucking hell,
what have I fucking done?
Walks out.
First thing he says is like, what's up with nonnas?
The place fucking erupts
goes absolutely insane he says nonna yeah he's in a sentence and people are fucking jumping up
and down going crazy right and i go oh my god like he just starts absolutely destroying harder
than i've seen anyone it's tension and release it's like you know when you've been at a funeral
or whatever and then something very minute happens when you walk out
and you just piss yourself because it's all that.
Your comedy is like a funeral.
Yeah, yeah.
But a brightly dressed funeral.
Yeah.
Right.
So I walk off and then.
Did you guys, I mean, is this in town or did you drive together?
Like is it.
This, no, no, this is like not too far out.
Yeah.
So I'm then getting on a tram
putting the street clothes back on over the top of the pajamas that's awkward yeah and does anybody
see this happen no no not on the train like i do it backstage and then get on the train with the
whole thing and then go the the shame of putting clothes back on sorry yeah no it is but also why
wear the pajamas still you're done No, he got off stage and started
putting on his clothes. Yeah, yeah.
But surely you're about to leave. Could you not go to a bathroom
and take off the pajamas? But where do I put
the pajamas? I didn't bring a
bag or anything, so I've come to the gig
with the pajamas on. You didn't count on
him being this much of a dumb cunt, did you?
What about the fact that they
have now... I like how you're trying to
pick fault with this story, by the way.
Hey, why not say no to the gig?
No, but that still doesn't make sense to me.
No, well, look, the pajamas are now associated with one of the worst moments of his life.
So what you should be doing is setting him on fire.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But you're like, I don't want to get rid of these.
And then you should jump in that fire after the set.
So I put him back on over the top.
I get on the tram and I go to my work Christmas party.
Yeah, you do.
You burnt it, mate.
Yeah, totally.
And it's bad because I didn't want to hang out.
I wanted to go to the work Christmas party
and then I didn't want to hang out
and roll back in my own shit at the gig
and wait for the headliner to finish.
Oh, you left before he was done.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, wow.
Totally, totally.
So I go there and then, you know, the party's nearly finished.
Did he pay you?
Here's the next bit of the story.
Okay.
So then I'm like, it's that thing where, you know,
when you have a gig that's that bad and you sort of go,
oh, man, I sort of didn't deserve that money, you know.
Yeah.
But then I go, you know what?
I go, you know what?
I had to give up my work Christmas party for this.
The best night of the year.
Yeah, okay, we get it.
It's a great night.
Jesus God.
You work with them.
I got to say, it's October now.
I got to try and get a job before the end of the year.
Oh, you're missing out.
You're missing out.
I got a job mid-November.
We don't hire someone on December 20th normally,
but you seem really into it.
You seem like you're really going to bring a great vibe to the party.
I'm sorry, are those pajamas under your suit?
They are.
Thank you for having me.
So I'm like, you know, I'm on the verge of going,
you know what, I'm not going to chase up the money
because I did such a bad job.
Everyone hated me so much.
I'm like, I missed out on the fucking greatest day of the year so i'm gonna get this money i gotta get paid i gotta get compensated
yeah for that for missing out on that party because when i got there the party was done
oh really finished yeah fuck so you didn't you did you text it's just tragedy after tragedy yeah
there's just no wins yeah yeah did you text them him and say, oh, I'm on my way?
I don't think there was texting then.
Yeah, maybe.
No, I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
Because that reeks to me of, all right, guys, he's on his way.
Let's shift venues.
Make it look like we're taking down decorations.
Yeah, yeah.
I get comedy now.
So after all of that, I go, right, I've got to get this money.
So I text the guy.
I'm like, oh, yeah, sorry to bother you.
I'm going to get that money.
He's like, yeah, yeah, cool.
Nothing happens.
I'm like, here's my bank details and everything.
He's like, yeah, yeah, cool.
Nothing happens.
It's like $100 or something.
But I'm like, I need to get this money to make myself feel better about this.
So it goes on for months.
I say, I'm going to be at this gig.
He's booked on the same gig.
He doesn't show up to the gig. Oh, my God.
That's how bad you are.
That happens a couple times?
Carl was so bad that a headliner is now not going to gigs.
He quit comedy.
That's how bad of a set he had.
Two people quit comedy that night.
One was more forced out, but yeah.
So eventually I go, he's booked in for this big gig that he can't pull out of.
It's not some shitty gig. He's booked in for this big gig that he can't pull out of like it's not some shitty gig
he's booked in for this big gig
and I text him
and I'm not on the bill
hey mate can I do support
no no
need some pyjamas
yeah
you got some nonnas in the front row
because I got something for him
so I go
hey man I see you're headlining this gig
I'm going to come along
if you could get me that money
that'd be great
he's like okay
so I go to the gig I go up to him and go hey man so you know you know what I'm could get me that money that'd be great he's like okay so i go to the gig
i go up to him and go hey man so you know you know what i'm here for for that money he goes
oh yeah yeah i know i know why you're here you told me so i prepared and everything
so here's your money and gives me the full hundred dollars in coins yes yes in fucking loose coins
wow like just sort of drops them into coins wow all hundred
hundred bucks in coins
fucking hell
and it was like going
20
30
really stretching it out
I love this guy
he's a fucking dickhead
what a piece of shit
first of all he went and picked a guy to open for him
that he didn't really know anything about. He saw one
set. At an open mic with five people.
He invited him to do it. The guy's
inexperienced. The guy made a fucking mistake.
That's on you. Probably has an acquired brain injury.
Yeah, the guy's clearly not smart.
He went to the hospital for wearing pajamas
under his regular clothes and pretended it was another
kid.
So a deranged human.
So this guy,
this guy is a fucking dickhead.
Like the thing you do
is you go,
hey man,
that didn't work
and I'm sorry
and you might not have been ready
for it or whatever.
Yeah, totally.
You know,
you don't just,
it's his fucking fault.
It's 100% on him.
How bad is this guy
where Dave Anthony's
sticking up for me all of a sudden?
Yeah, I'm shocked.
I'm shocked.
I'm on this guy's side.
And I feel like you should name him.
Well, I'll tell you one more quick story about him because this is like the same guy.
This is what he then does a couple of years later.
Like this is about five years later.
He's just walking out with a pocket full of change.
That's the other thing is like that's inconvenient for him.
Oh, it takes effort.
He's deliberately like hunting you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So inconvenient. He's deliberately, like, hunting you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, he cunted the coins out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Who wants to walk around?
Like, he's walking around with $100 worth of coins in his pocket going,
this is such a pain in the ass, but it's going to be so good
to make this guy feel even worse about that horrible gig he did.
Walking there jingling.
Yeah.
Oh, fuck this pajama guy.
How dare he try his best 12 months into a bunch of my audience.
And like having to go to the bank and like,
can I just get this in coins?
Yeah.
Oh, any like ones or twos, just whatever you've got sitting around.
It'd be fantastic.
What would really inconvenience an open mic a more?
Yeah.
Like what denomination?
Yeah.
Is this for like a fundraising event for a till?
It's for spite
It's to fix up the letters
If you can throw a couple of foreign coins in there as well
That he won't recognise until he goes to pay with them
That'd be great
Yeah, what are you going to do?
You're going to throw them at him?
No, no, much worse
I'm going to count them out really slowly as he's paying
And that'd be great
Then you go to cash all the coins
And just by chance you get the same teller
It's like, oh yeah, okay, I see
This all makes sense now.
Yeah, I recognize those coins.
And the pajamas you're wearing
in the bank. Want to hear a joke? Absolutely
not. Did you say anything?
No. You didn't say
a word. No, because I'm still like
18 months into comedy. You're a little tadpole.
Yeah, and I'm like, I know I did
a bad job. What am I supposed to do?
Like go, you fuck you you
you paid me you did exactly what i asked for technically but i'd love this to happen to you
now just to see the just to see the change in time if oh yeah someone to pay you a hundred dollars
in coins oh my god go off this would be i know this is one episode that'd be a three-parter
so this same guy like five six later, he rings me up.
It's basically nearly the first bit of contact we've had since then.
And he rings me up and he's saying, because at the time,
I don't know if I mentioned, but the work Christmas party,
I had a job back then.
Yeah, no, no, you brought up the work Christmas party.
Okay, I did.
Very aware, yeah, yeah, for sure.
I can't remember if you were pro Christmas party or.
No, he was into it
I remember
it was ages ago I kind of tuned out for a second
I was fixing the levels
I was going to do the tonight show once but I got offered a Christmas party
they came to me at work
and they were like hey man do you want to come to the Christmas party
and I was like I'm supposed to do the tonight show
I did a similar thing
earlier in this episode someone offered me a million dollars once and I was like nah I'm supposed to do the Tonight Show. I did a similar thing earlier in this episode.
Someone offered me a million dollars once.
I was like, nah, I got a pizza.
We've all done it.
We've all done it.
To be fair, the million dollars was in coins.
That was a fucking hassle.
Pain.
Two trucks.
Oh, did you have non-agia to earn that money? Yeah.
Maybe that's how Scrooge McDuck filled up that money pool.
Just eat heaps of shit gigs at Italian clubs.
Just to give the dickheads who came.
Those Beagle boys really fucked me over on this Italian club gig.
They've done it again.
So he rings me up and the office party,
to which the office I worked in, I did graphic design.
I used to work as a professional graphic designer.
So I still do the occasional poster for comedians, right?
So this guy rings me up and goes, oh, man.
Oh, fuck, that's who this is.
Oh, my God.
So then he rings me up and goes, hey, I've seen your posters going around.
I really like them.
And I think, you know, I'm going to do a show and I'd like you to do a poster for me.
And I'm like, oh, yeah, cool, man.
You know, that's completely fine.
I can do that.
And he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, here's all the details and I want you to use it. This is going to be the theme. And if you can do that and he's like yeah yeah here's all the details
and I want you to
this is going to be the theme
and if you can do this
it's all this work
and photoshop this
and that and whatever
and I go yeah yeah
the show is called
how about those nonnas
yeah yeah
so I go
and I'm thinking
wow this is going to be good
getting to the payment bit
I mean this is going to be
very interesting
how I'm going to get paid
and everything
I don't know where this is going
I don't think you do.
So then he goes, I said, oh, so usually I charge a certain amount,
but I do a good rate for comedians and whatever.
So what were you sort of thinking, like in terms of payment?
And he said, oh, well, what I was thinking in terms of payment was
this weekend I'm running a comedy workshop.
And so if you do the poster,
you can come along to learn how to be a good comedian for free. Why aren't you naming this guy? This weekend I'm running a comedy workshop and so if you do the poster,
you can come along to learn how to be a good comedian for free.
Why aren't you naming this guy?
He's a fucking cunt.
Oh, my God.
He made the change payment look good.
Yeah.
I was begging for $100 worth of $1 coins now.
What a fucking petty bitch.
Did this guy ultimately go on to invent cryptocurrency?
Because it's like paying in a shitload of coins, paying in comedy workshops. It's just him trying to get out of the realm of like.
Why don't we exchange trades?
Who fucking holds on to someone not doing well for five minutes in front of you for fucking six years.
Do you think it's related to that?
I feel like I'm looking at the sort of person who would right now.
Sorry, but I have empathy and I would feel bad for the guy.
If you're a normal comedian and a comedian tanks it in front of you,
you feel terrible for him.
Absolutely, yeah.
This guy's like a psychopath. It's a bit funny.
He's like a psychopath.
A gambit.
Yeah, yeah.
So he offers me that, and I go, oh.
And, you know, it's been six years.
So now, you know, I'm doing comedy full time.
Yeah, you're even worse now.
He doesn't know that yet.
Oh, I feel even worse.
I don't have an office party to go to.
Well, that's the problem with this comedy workshop.
It was the weekend of the office.
You're like still turning up to the party, David Bredstein.
You haven't worked there in six years.
I can't believe Ard would do this.
Famous Italio-Australian comedian.
I didn't say he was Italian.
Who knows what ethnicity he is?
Okay, so you happen to be in an Italian club.
Who knows?
Who knows?
So I get that offer and because I'm now – it's six years later.
I've now got the balls enough to not be like, okay, sir, what have you say?
So I go, oh, I'm actually – I'm really busy on the weekend.
He's like, oh, I've got another one coming up in a few months.
I'm like, oh, I'm pretty sure I've got something on that time as well.
Nothing better than someone who's determined to just corner you
in a conversation.
Like you've got it out and they're on to you immediately
and it's just they've got options coming out their eyes.
It's like we can do this dance for as long as you want, buddy.
I can teach you swimming.
You want that?
So I never respond to him after that.
And I just say, and I'm thinking, man, is this a normal thing?
Should I be outraged?
Should I be insulted?
Yes.
So I ring Lawrence Mooney.
Oh, okay.
Straight after that.
That's a good guy to ring in this situation.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's weird, though, because he's the guy who was offering to get you
into the comedy workshop.
No, no, no. You can't cover your tracks here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's weird though because he's the guy who was offering to get you into the comedy workshop. No, no, no.
You can't cover your tracks here.
I'm on to you.
Lorenzo Munia.
So I ring him
and he loses his mind.
He's like,
what a fucking piece of shit
except I've given him the name
so he's getting violently angry.
And he's like,
I can't believe
this is how the fuck he thinks.
He thinks, I know what I'll do.
I'll get your years and years, decades of experience learning your trade
and going to university and I'll swap that by taking a big shit
on your fucking spaghetti bolognese.
Because that was when the guy in question,
because you told me this story before, when the guy in question put it to you,
he referred to it as a bit of contra.
Yes, sweet contra.
It was a bit of, that's how he set it up.
It was like, let's get a bit of contra going.
So that's a thing that Mooney's still to this day obsessed with.
How about a bit of sweet contra?
Yeah, so if you ever say, how about some sweet contra to Mooney,
he'll go, I'll take a shit on your spaghetti, sure.
It's incredibly brazen.
But do you think specifically he was offering you the comedy workshop
because he remembers that gig?
Or do you think he's just being a cheapskate and just going,
this is a thing that I have to live with?
Honestly, he saw.
He never forgot his name.
He saw that he was doing posters and he fucking rang him up
just to be a fucking bitter asshole.
You reckon?
Honestly, as I told the story, that idea only clicked just then.
What?
That it was because of –
That they're related.
Yeah, yeah.
It was payback from –
Oh, it was 100% payback.
He never forgot it.
I just thought it was two unrelated stories of him being a massive cunt.
Oh, my God.
It was up until just then.
You stupid.
You thought that you saw no link.
You stupid.
Now I'm on his side.
How am I on his side now?
Buy me lunch and I'll give you free entry to my
How to Not Be a Dumb Fuck Course workshop
that I'm running this afternoon.
Okay, why aren't we naming him?
I just think it would be, because it's a small world.
Comedy's a small world comedy is a small world
who gives a shit
he's a fucking asshole
yeah
you can't name him
you just got to give
heaps of specific details
about the kind of thing
he does
and the kind of gigs
that he does
so that people can
look him up online
you know what
you want to be smart about it
you know what
whenever I don't name someone
it makes people
way more interested
in the story
yes definitely
because then people
you know people just
come up to me every live show.
Anytime we do any live show, I'm going,
tell me who the fuck this person is.
So this will make those people very happy.
Yeah, we've been doing this a lot on the show recently,
like kind of giving out scant details about things
and then all the fucking amateur detectives fire up on the Facebook page
and try and do a little bit of sleuthing.
And they're all always absolutely wrong.
Okay, so I have an idea.
Where does he live?
In Melbourne, Sydney?
Who knows?
In Australia.
So say he lives in Sydney.
So the dollop comes.
It's coming.
Yep.
We call this guy up.
Yep.
We ask him to be a guest on the show.
We really like his comedy.
And then he shows up and we go, oh, no, we meant for you to watch to see how comedy works.
How you get people to laugh at stuff.
So just sit back there and watch.
This is how you get a crowd.
And then you walk out as the guest.
In pajamas.
In pajamas.
And then we throw coins at you and we don't have a guest.
That's very nice of you.
I don't think Will Anderson will ever forgive you
for doing that to him.
You can do it tonight.
It's fine.
Wow, that is so crazy.
Do you run into this person still?
Not often.
Because he's more successful?
Or just successful?
Or just successful?
This needs a third act.
This needs a third thing that you don't think is connected in any way.
All right.
Well, next time these guys come back in a year,
I'll try and have another run in.
This should be the story that we keep spider webbing.
Yeah, because he's fucked you twice.
You've got to work out a way to – we need justice.
Either get fucked again or me fuck him.
You need to fuck him.
You need to get vengeance for these two.
You need to fuck him.
You're right.
My goal shouldn't be to get fucked again.
What you really need to do is you need to get a gig
that you can book this guy on
and then just pay him
and change.
Oh my God.
This is an idea we had.
I don't know whether
we talked about this
on the podcast
but this was an idea
that I proposed
that I,
so I got married
about a month or two ago.
Oh shit.
And so,
congratulations.
Congratulations.
That's the word.
So, thank you.
Yeah, no, sorry. At first I viewed it as a tragedy because i thought of her but then i realized you're involved and that's
great for you so i got married recently and this was the idea that i was pitching um for the bucks
party uh or stag do whatever you guys call it sure um bachelor party Sure. Bachelor party. Neither are a book of all time. Stag, yeah.
Bachelor stag.
Stag is English as well.
So we had this very perverse idea of like all of the people in the stag party,
in the bachelor party, being comedians.
And then we book a really bad comedian.
Oh, God.
To do the gig, except not telling him any of the details.
So it's just like, yeah, it's just this corporate thing.
It's downstairs and lead him in.
And as he walks on stage.
Women can be shit at comedy as well.
Right.
Got to be fair, Carl.
He or she walk on stage.
Equal opportunity for the worst gig of your life.
Sure.
Yeah.
As they walk on stage, they look down at the small audience and realize it's all comedians
going, ah, fuck you.
This is going to be the worst gig.
So, man, I should have got him to do that.
Yeah, yeah.
That would have been a fucking dream.
But we've also, haven't we, we've kind of talked about doing that as a comedian's Christmas party for many years.
Oh, yeah.
And maybe we could do it this year.
Maybe this is when we do it.
Carl's got the office thing.
He can't make it.
It would just ruin his year.
We could do this.
We could put this on and totally shit.
This could be the comedian's office work this on and totally get listeners along.
This could be the comedian's office work,
but this could be the thing.
This could unite all of the stories.
Yes!
This is like a vulture.
We have a third act.
And you can book this person,
and we can get listeners to come along
and just make it very useful.
Wow.
And you just have to say,
only thing you've got to remember
is you just have to do 40 minutes.
The only requirement to get paid is hit 40.
If you hit 41, you do not get paid.
It's the equivalent of the speed bus.
Yeah, yeah.
And plug my DVD at the end if you can.
Right, yeah.
Make sure he does that.
And make him do it in pajamas.
Yes.
When I used to do kids' birthday parties, I one time had a friend of mine text me and
he was like, what's your favorite character to dress up like for kids birthday parties
and I was just like what
and he was like what is it and I was like
I guess if I had to pick one I would say Spider-Man
and then him and my buddy
had booked me and felt
too bad to show up
at a park for just the two of them
but they bailed
they bailed on it
but they told me.
And I was like, what the fuck is wrong with you two?
That's amazing.
Yeah.
Holy shit.
So did you turn up in a park as Spider-Man to no one in the end?
No.
They canceled the party.
I guess they had requested me.
So they ended up having a soul.
They had a soul at the end of it.
Oh, damn.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a real bummer for sure.
Yeah.
There's a lot of other nightmares in that history.
But yeah, that was one where I was like, wow, that is crazy.
And would have been so fucking funny.
I would have definitely been like, all right, this is funny.
You should just do all your shows on this tour dressed as Spider-Man.
I want to.
It could be my pajamas.
Yeah, yeah.
Look at how excited Carl is.
Get in the costume bandwagon.
Another freak.
All bad things happen to you, and then I can come and make fun of that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Carl's time. Carl's time.
Carl's time.
Well, we'd better wrap it up for another week
on the little Dum Dum Club. We've got to get this
Christmas party idea going. This is how you can finally
have your revenge. Dave Anthony
and Gareth Reynolds, thank you so much for joining us.
Thank you, gentlemen. Check out the dollop
if you don't already, but I
would believe that people probably already... I believe everyone that listens to this Check out the dollop if you don't already, but I would believe that people probably already...
I believe everyone that listens to this listens to the dollop.
If you're a friend of Carl's, then you've heard the dollop.
And you're not listening to this, so it doesn't...
And hey, to anyone who is tuning into this for, what,
the third or fourth time just because these guys are on,
lovely to see you again.
There's other episodes.
We'll see you in a year.
This is our office Christmas party.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we got all our stuff on sale on the website,
but you know about that from the ad at the top of the show.
Thank you very much for joining us, and we'll see you next time.
See you, mates.
And we are back.
That was fun.
That was great.
Yeah, a lot of fun when those guys get to town.
Yeah.
I wish there was a way we could see them again,
you know, like maybe in the middle of next year.
Okay.
Well, let me have a think.
Do you want to fly them back to Melbourne?
Do you want to see them in Melbourne?
Do you like seeing them in Melbourne?
Well, I'd feel bad because it's like the start of winter then
and I just would feel bad bringing them in
when the weather is so, you know, unreliable
and pretty awful. And you, but you want to be
here though? You'd like to
winter? I don't have to be here, no. I'd prefer
not to be. I mean, I don't care. I'm, you know,
I've got a valid passport. I can go anywhere.
Okay, alright. Well,
now that you say that, I've got a
great idea. Please. Let's stay
here in winter. I mean, no, fuck. Alright. What we're going to do is I've organised a great idea. Please. Let's stay here in winter.
I mean, no, fuck.
All right.
What we're going to do is I've organised this. We should have just said the news.
We shouldn't have done a skit around it.
I don't know what this is.
All right.
So the news is last year, or this year, we went to Koh Samui for the International Koh
Samui Podcast Festival.
We have decided to go back there next year.
Well, I mean, we've been invited back.
Well, I mean, sorry.
Two things have happened.
We've been invited back.
Yes.
And also as festival directors
we've invited the little dum-dum club back.
Yes, yes.
And also another thing that we did as directors was
we've invited the dollop to come with us.
Dave Anthony, Gareth Reynolds.
And they said no, big shame.
Yeah.
Anyway, thanks for sticking around for this news.
No, they said yes.
Yeah.
So they are coming.
So our little joke of being the Koh Samui International Podcast Festival containing
only one podcast, us, is no longer the joke.
We've had to put it to bed.
Yeah.
But there's no other podcast that we would even consider putting to bed such a great
joke for.
Yeah.
Except for anyone else that had offered us.
So they are coming.
So exciting.
Exciting enough news that we are going to go back there and do it again.
Yeah.
And for all the people that complained and missed out.
There's a lot of people that just presumed.
But no one would ever hit me up and go, are you guys going to do it again?
I just kept getting hit by people saying, when you back next year can i come yeah i'm coming and
i'm like i honestly hadn't really thought about going back i didn't think it was sustainable i
didn't think we would go again but this is this is the secret you know what i mean this like their
wish came true yeah just telling you that they were going to do it you just ended up being coerced
into doing it. Yeah.
So there's so many people interested in doing it already.
And then we've added it on the dollop.
And they haven't even told their people yet.
Yeah.
So, so many people are going to be there.
It is literally going to be a sold-out resort.
So we're back at the wonderful people at the Ozo Choing Samui Resort.
We are going back there.
They looked after us last year.
They're going to look after us this year.
We are going to...
Honestly, the resort's a good size,
but we are going to pack it out.
Yeah.
So June 13 to 18.
Yes.
It's also a ticketed event this year
to cover the costs of getting all of us over there.
Exactly.
Hopefully, very...
Sorry, all of you people at home
chucked in for the GoFundMe fundraise last year
and made us a lot of money
to be able to bring everyone over and make it all happen and whatever.
We just don't think we want to go back to the well and say, hey, give us that same money
again.
And we probably think it wasn't going to happen anyway because you were very generous last
year because I think a lot of it was, imagine if this happened.
Let's give them some money.
That was the thought behind people.
Yeah.
Whereas this year, we're like, you know what?
All those people came over last year and had a great time.
We didn't charge them a cent.
So let's make it fair.
If you want to come over, it's not a big amount either.
Yeah.
If you're already planning a holiday, $100 on top of that is nothing.
Exactly.
And like I said, we're not trying to gouge people.
It's literally, this is just how we're going to fund it and get people over there and make
it all happen.
We've got to fly our guests over.
Yeah.
We're flying the dollop over there.
They're making, you know, they could be doing good, interesting jobs.
Yeah.
Or doing big theatre shows.
Instead, they're going to get a piece of the pie with us.
Exactly.
So I don't think that's unfair at all.
And even if it was $100 in your own town, we're doing a heap of nights of shows.
Yeah.
There's going to be heaps of stuff going on.
It's great.
If it was $100 in Melbourne, it would be great value.
Yes.
So what it is is the deal is go to our website and you'll find out all about it.
You get your $100 ticket to the whole festival and you're there for five nights.
Heaps and heaps of shows.
It'll be a mix of stand-up, live podcasts, probably other shit.
Other shit that we'll figure out in the eight months between now and then.
And by then you mean the night before we go, as is common with us.
So, but the other thing is, like I said,
if you go to the website, you go to our page,
find out all the info about the ticket.
You'll also find all the details about going
to the wonderful Ozo Choeing Resort,
which, you know, we sort of insist on you staying there
as part of the deal because, you know, they help us out,
so we need to help them out and get them involved
and you stay there and it's a hub for the whole festival.
Oh, I like that, a hub.
Yeah.
That's nice.
Yeah, so we can't sort of have people staying anywhere else and coming in.
We sort of need to, you know, check ID and all that sort of stuff.
Well, they give you a deal if you use the, is it the password podcast18?
Exactly.
They give you a deal which means that it's an amazing resort
and you get it for a super great rate.
You actually would be an idiot to not stay there.
Yeah, it's like 20% off normal price, plus their normal price is really good.
So it's a great deal.
If you saw any of the video, we're going to try and put up video and little bits and pieces on the social medias to really show you what it was like last year.
And there's a thread in our Facebook group of some people
who came this year talking about how good it was
and, yeah, just really, really hyping up the resort.
Yeah.
And a few people have emailed saying,
will it be weird if I go by myself?
And a lot of people did it last year and...
Or this year, I should say.
And all of them had a great time.
Like, no one has spoken ill of being there by themselves.
Oh, not only that, but I think people, you know, have really made lifelong friends of
the people they met there.
Like, because a lot of single people went along there just going, okay, I guess we can
just watch the shows and then go our own way the rest of the time.
But everyone sort of banded together.
There was no loners or anything.
Everyone just went out and did stuff together.
And not only that, since then, that group of people have, like, met up heaps of times.
Yeah.
You know, a heap of them flew down to see flew down to see the last Melbourne show we did.
Yeah.
They joined up in Brisbane or Sydney or Melbourne, wherever we go.
There's like a big contingent of those guys that just like hanging out together now.
I keep asking the group who fucked and no one will tell me.
Right.
No one will be honest with me.
Yeah.
I mean, that must have happened.
But people will not answer my questions.
For the new people that come along, you have to tell us who fucked.
Yes, yes.
Let's put that in the terms and conditions of the ticket.
Just sneak it in.
So you are required to be hooked up to a polygraph.
I will name everyone who's there,
and you have to say whether or not you fucked them,
and then I'll know if you're lying or not.
Yeah, that's part of the thing.
You have to pay the ticket price for the festival.
You have to go to the OZO, and you have to show us who you're fucking at the time. Ring us when you're doing it not. Yeah, that's part of the thing. You have to pay the ticket price for the festival. You have to go to the OZO
and you have to show us who you're fucking at the time.
Yeah.
Ring us when you're doing it.
Okay, right.
Yeah, just ring us.
Okay.
Skype us, whatever.
So get onto that.
Get all the info.
Man, it's going to be fucking awesome.
Like this year was absolutely amazing.
Yeah, it was so good.
And for that to happen again, this is mind-blowing.
And honestly, I think this year is going to,
like next year I mean,
the next one is going
to be so big.
Yeah.
So I reckon it will actually sell out.
So if you've got half a mind of doing it, get onto it quick.
Yeah.
Of course, that's when it's going to be its cheapest.
That's when, you know, airfares are, you know, wait for a special, whatever.
Yep.
You can get over there.
For people that have been asking and people have been saying to me, oh, you know, I looked
it up and it looks like a fair bit of money.
No, no, no.
Be smart about it. You know, chase your bargains, get
on Jetstar, whatever you need to do. You'll need to go to Singapore or KL or Bangkok first
and then get your flight from there to Kuala Lumpur.
And that's why we kind of wanted to get this out as soon as we could to give you guys plenty
of time to, yeah, sit on and wait for a sale or whatever you've got to do.
Well, we only gave people like two months notice last year, didn't we? So this time
you've got no excuse. You can plan your gave people like two months notice last year, didn't we? So this time you've got no excuse.
You can plan your holiday for the year around this if that's what you want to do.
We've got a lot of response already.
I know we've just announced it on the show, but we sort of snuck it out there.
Yeah, we announced it on Saturday night at the live gig.
Yeah, at the episode you'll hear next week.
But man, genuinely, genuinely exciting.
And from talking to the people who went there last year, a heap of them have already signed up to go back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So we need to now thank all the people who,
well, not all the people,
some of the people who support us on Patreon.
Thank you to those who continue to do that
by sending us money each month.
Part of the deal is that we will read your name out on the show.
So should we...
Oh, look, you know what?
I just want to do it now, and we'll just watch the clock.
I've got to be gone in a couple of minutes.
I've got something to do, so we'll just do as many as we can
in this certain amount of time that I won't name at the moment.
Okay.
Yeah, but I've kept the time right here myself.
Okay, so you're just going to...
Once the clock stops, is it a countdown timer?
And as soon as it's done, you'll just have to leave.
I've just got an alarm.
I've set an alarm.
Cool, cool.
I can't wait to hear what the alarm sounds like.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, I don't know why anyone's ever said that before about an alarm, but anyway.
Well, it's, you know, you've got a lot of options available to you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right, okay.
All right.
Yep.
Just that'll give me a little bit of time to figure that one out.
So, all right.
We'll get into it.
We'll do one here now.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Russell McNall.
Russell McNall.
McNall.
That sounds like a brand of Atlas or Encyclopedia or something.
What's Rand McNally?
It sounds like Russell McNall.
Russell McNall.
It's the rip-off.
Russell McNall's big book of cocks.
Yeah.
No, not that.
Russell McNall's big book of podcasts he gives money to.
Yes.
Wow, so you think there's a lot of these in there?
Well, no, I think it's more like the Costa Mui podcast festival,
the first one that only had one.
Right, okay.
Yeah.
But we were in there.
We were in the old Russell McNall.
We've made the Russell McNall big book of podcast donations.
Number one, Little Dum Dum Club.
Why, thank you, Russell.
Thanks, Russ.
I like the name Russ.
Do you reckon, tell me when I read these out,
do you reckon any of these will go to Koh Samui?
Russell McNall, does he sound like a traveller?
Russell McNall.
No, I think Russell McNall sounds like he's pretty set in his ways.
I think he's one of those guys who, you know, hasn't travelled much.
Russell's a bit of a safe name.
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah, yeah.
I think he's, I'm picking he's from like a, you know,
he's from a little town or a little village.
Would you say he's from a...
The outside world scares him. Is he from a hamlet? I'd say say he's from a... The outside world scares him.
Is he from a hamlet?
I'd say maybe he's from a hamlet.
Right.
And hey, you know what?
No offence if that works for you.
That's fine.
I'm casting no judgement here.
No offence to anyone out there that lives in a hamlet.
Yes.
So yeah, I think he's just...
Not coming.
I think that's why he likes podcasts
is because it's his connection to the outside world.
All right, we'll put him down as a no.
Sorry, Russ.
Sorry.
Hey, prove me wrong. to the outside world. All right, we'll put him down as a no. Sorry, Russ. Sorry. Hey, prove me wrong.
Maybe the third one.
You know, if we're still doing it in 2019, maybe, Russ, come along to that one.
But we've ruled you out of this next one.
You know how many times I think we should do the Koso Movie Podcast Festival?
How many?
I think five.
I reckon let's do five.
I don't know why you're...
You know, we're only up to our second one.
I don't know why you're pushing so hard into the future.
I'm just looking like...
You must have really loved the first one.
I mean, I'll be 35 by then.
That seems like a good...
Like, midway into my 30s seems like a good time to kind of cap it off.
Right.
That's weird.
I mean, it says to me...
I don't want to be 40 and still go into Thailand on a little holiday with my little comedy friends.
Oh, you're talking sense now.
All right.
We'll leave at five.
Cool.
Okay, number two.
Gee, we're racing against the clock.
Second subscriber this week, Grace.
Thank you to Grace Jarvis.
Grace Jarvis.
I recognise that name from the socials.
Oh, do you?
Jarvis is a memorable name.
Yes.
I like the name Grace.
Jarvis sounds like a butler in the way that she's delivering us money.
Yes.
For doing this podcast.
We are receiving some money by her good grace.
Yes.
Wow, we've tied both names in.
That's a sweet combo.
Grace is one that you were asking a while ago
if I were to have a kid, what I would call it.
Grace would be up there for a girl.
Really?
Yeah, I like the name Grace.
It's nice.
Okay.
Well, if I had a girl, I'd be calling it Jarvis.
It's one of those rare ones where it's like a nice sounding word
and it also is an actual word that does mean a nice thing.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, you're right.
Grace is a good thing.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
All right, convinced.
All right, well, I look forward to this daughter of yours
being popped out in the next, what would you give it?
Six to 12 months?
Three months.
Three months.
Three months, yeah.
Did I not tell you?
No.
Fuck. All months, yeah. Did I not tell you? No! Fuck!
All right, great.
Well, I can't wait to read through the rest of these names
to see if any of these tickle your fancy
with this very impending birth of your child.
Yeah, yeah.
Right.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Linus Firth.
Linus Firth?
Yeah.
Linus is another one that would be on the...
What?
Parallel with Grace is a girl's one.
So if you have a boy,
if it's a very impending child that I didn't know anything about
that is being popped out in the next three months,
would you be tempted to name that child
after another Peanuts character?
Snoopy?
Linus if it's a boy,
Pigpen if it's a girl.
If it comes out of my partner,
if it comes out of the mother and it's just surrounded by a cloud of smoke
and everyone in the room goes, P-U, then I'll know.
Right.
What if she pops it out and it just lands immediately on a dog kennel back first?
You're going to be Snoopy Dasolo then?
It'll be Snoopy Dasolo.
I'll turn to my wife who's also an adult.
Wait, what?
Well, it's illegal to have a child out of wedlock.
So you're going to get married in the next three months?
I'm married in this scenario, yes.
Oh, right.
Okay.
But I'll turn to my partner who's just given birth and as an adult I'll say,
Oh, nice.
Very nice.
And so the baby will be saying better words than the adult will straight away.
The baby will come out and it'll get a look at me as its father
and go, good grief.
Right, right, right.
So Snoopy says good grief now.
Sure.
Right.
I feel like this is a very clear, linear storyline we've created now
that will definitely continue on.
Thanks, Linus.
You're a fucking dumb cunt, Charlie Brown.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber.
And here is someone that has been subscribing for a long time.
And you know what?
Has needled me over the weekend to go, fucking, where's the action?
And I said, good call.
Greg Fleet.
Thanks, Fleety.
No.
Oh, yeah, he's giving us money.
Good one.
This person has been giving money for a while, and you know what?
He squeaked, and I'm giving him the grease right now.
Great.
So here it is.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Matthew Mandile.
Mandile?
Yeah.
I like it.
What do you got to say about that?
Or woman-dile.
That's what I've got to say.
Very nice.
Very nice.
He's a Melbourne comedy-goer.
He goes to the Room Eye run on a Thursday night, Thursday Comedy Club at the European Beer Cafe.
He comes there a lot.
And he walks in and says, we've got a bit of like a Cheers-style relationship or something going on.
Or maybe a Warner Brothers cartoon-style relationship.
He walks in and goes, Chando.
And I go, Mando.
Nice.
It's a real husband and wife scenario.
Sounds like this is the highlight of your week.
You sad, lonely man.
Yeah, it's good.
Thanks, Mando.
Thanks, Mando.
I hope, unless, you know, Mandile.
I felt like you were about to riff on that, to do some sweet riffing.
Mandile.
Well, the Mandile kind of sounds like a euphemism for the cock, doesn't it?
Oh, does it?
Get him right on the Mandile.
Right.
I thought it was going to be more like a young lady saying,
I feel like doing a bit of man dialing tonight.
You know, like...
Call up a man.
Ringing up a bloke.
Okay.
It could go either way.
Yours is a bit more sanitary.
Yours is like the PC version.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mine's like the...
Mine's the...
Mine's just a bit in the video store behind the curtain.
Yours is grotty.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Thanks, Mando.
By the way, I'm resisting the temptation to ask if I can see the countdown timer because
I want to be surprised.
Yeah.
I don't want you feeling any pressure.
Yeah.
No, I don't.
I feel absolutely relaxed.
And I wouldn't be able to concentrate if I knew how much time we had counted out.
Exactly.
Yeah.
You're doing good.
I'm a little bit stressed here.
I'll bet.
Yeah.
I'll give you a bit of a clue.
There's not much time to go.
Oh, there's not much time left. Well, how many have we done? We've done four. We've done four. So we're probably only going to- We'll just keep going. We'll bet. Yeah. I'll give you a bit of a clue. There's not much time to go. Oh, there's not much time left.
Well, how many
have we done?
We've done four.
We've done four.
So we've probably
only got time for
about another three
or four or something.
Stop talking.
We won't have time
to get three or four
in if you don't keep
talking like that.
So anyway, right.
So thank you to
Patreon subscriber.
Okay.
All right.
Yep.
Patreon subscriber
Don Comedy.
Don Comedy?
Yeah, but look, I'll tell you this
It's not short for Donald
Oh
It's like
No, I didn't think so
Oh, right
Is this
Am I to believe that perhaps
The reason that
This man supports the Patreon
Is because you came and asked him to chip in
On the day of his daughter's wedding
I did ask for a favour Yes is because you came and asked him to chip in on the day of his daughter's wedding.
I did ask for a favour.
Yes.
Put in $69 a month to my Patreon.
And he's from the same country as, obviously, last week's subscriber, Pope Comedy.
Oh, yes.
Pope Comedy II.
Look, I really don't want to ask questions about where he's getting this money from, to be honest.
Because I feel like... I don't want to speak out or tell tales, but I feel like we're almost laundering some money.
That's why we're getting this money.
You went from saying you don't want to speak ill of him to just outright accusing him of using us as a laundering operation.
Oh, is that bad?
I always hear just laundry and think that's a good thing.
Isn't that good to do your laundry?
Is that the biggest discrepancy between two different uses of the word?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like laundromat being good for cleaning but then money laundering like pretty bad.
Yeah, that's bad.
Yeah.
Well, I always thought – I just thought that's a good thing.
I don't know.
You know, that's – to me, laundry is good.
That means you don't stink anymore.
Yeah.
So, maybe that's bad.
But it feels like these are ill-gotten gains, maybe.
Well, I mean, I don't want to speculate
because it sounds like we might get whacked by this guy.
It feels like he's going to give us an offer we can't refuse
and the offer is comedy.
This is a strange family where in the one lineage
they've got a pope and then by the sounds of it some form of mob boss.
I would imagine this is a bit of a Cain and Abel thing
where there's a black sheep and there's a white sheep
in the Italian comedy family.
One's taken one fork in the road and one's the other.
And they have both gotten to the top of their their uh you know their chosen
do you think they speak anymore oh good question this would be yeah look i i'd love to hear from
either of them or from any fight me too i'd love to hear from any of the other fuck how many do
you reckon it is now how many members of this family yeah i don't know i mean i haven't seen
anyone update the ancestry tree for a little while i'd love to see it now i think that's because i stopped saying how they're
related so people have just given up but you can still have you can have separate bits branching
off like you can have separate yeah they can estimate how people you know what i'm giving
people permission to estimate how everyone is related so far great um but look uh i don't
really want to um you know look look, thank you Don Comedy.
Thank you Don.
I'd kiss his ring if I could.
I bet you would.
What do you mean?
I'd kiss his ring, but, you know, I haven't met the man, so I won't do that.
But yeah, thank you.
Thank you very much.
We are in your debt.
Yes.
And if we can do anything for you,
if there are any guests that you don't like that come up... Please, let us know.
And you need them to be disappeared or anything like that,
absolutely fine.
Put the old concrete shoes on.
Yeah, anyway, I'll just go on to my next...
Yeah, we've got to move on.
We've riffed on this for too long.
Let's move on to number...
So we'll move on to...
Who's the next one?
Six, it'd be.
Oh, hang on.
Oh, shit, my alarm just went off.
Now, what is that?
What's that you've got
as your alarm?
Oh, that's a tune,
just a tune on my iPhone.
What's the song?
The first song that came up
when I opened it.
No, give him a shout out.
Oh, well, big shout out
to the artist Beck
and their new track
Up All Night.
Up All Night.
Okay, good.
So you've got that as your alarm.
Yes.
That's ironic because like Up All Night and it's like waking you up.
Yeah.
That's a good alarm.
Thank you.
So, oh, that's a shame.
Like I felt we were just starting to, you know, we're kind of meandering through the
other.
We just kind of started to get a bit of momentum going.
But hey, if you've got to run off.
I've got to go.
If the alarm has spoken.
The alarm.
Yeah, the alarm has spoken. So what did that end up being? Man, I'm in a rush, man. I've got to run off, if the alarm has spoken. The alarm, yeah, the alarm has spoken.
So what did that end up being?
Man, I'm in a rush, man.
I've got to go.
I've got the alarm off.
I think it was six.
Right, okay.
Well, we did six this week.
Great.
Unless anyone wants to correct us.
No, sorry, we were about to do six and then the alarm went off.
We did five.
Okay, right.
Cool.
Well, that's cool.
No worries.
We can go back to our normal number, whatever that is, next week.
And can we give a quick personal shout out to friend of the show will anderson who we bumped into in the street
the other day and who singled out this bit where we try and work out how many names to read out as
a personal favorite of his well i don't want to tell him what to do but he wants to listen to
some more comedy is that one of the worst things we've ever said about someone on this show? Yeah, what a horror.
That's like we've just run an anti-ad for Will.
He's usually, his comedy barometer is usually on, all right?
That's a rare misstep for Will, all right?
Sorry, sorry Will for saying that.
Great, so littledumbdumbclub.com
for all the information you need
for the 2018 Coastal Movie Podcast Festival.
Very exciting.
All of our upcoming gigs, Perth and Canberra
as well as our t-shirts. Can I say this?
No.
I think I've just made a little bit of time before
my next alarm goes off. Yeah, we could have done two more names
this time. So
when you book in to the OZO, to the OZO join,
like I said, they've done the right thing by us, do the right thing
by them, stay in the hub of what we've
created. That is the way that you'll be allowed to
attend and everything by paying the ticket money by staying in the ozo that's where we are
hosting the show after all and um if you book if you want to book for longer than that you can
but you basically need to make one separate booking for those times for the 13th to the 18th
because that's when the you put the password in and it applies to those days and not the other days.
So if you say you want to stay there from the 1st to the 31st
and you think that deal's going to apply for all the dates
or even that chunk of day, it doesn't work like that.
You'll need to specifically book the 13th to the 18th
to get that discount, to put in podcast 18 and get that discount.
Okay, thanks for that, Rain Man.
So yeah, a little dum-dum club for all that.
Oh, I should have mentioned this earlier.
If you're listening to this as it's come out,
if you're in China, I'm doing gigs this Friday and Saturday,
and if you're in Singapore, I'm doing a gig there Tuesday, October 31st.
So, yeah, any listeners there, come out.
Otherwise, thanks for listening, and we'll see you next time.
See you, mate.
