And if you're a fan
Starting point is 00:01:19 of numbers, you might be looking at this episode title and thinking, boy, those two motherfuckers are creeping up to big old 400 pretty quickly. And let me tell you, that hasn't gone unnoticed in here at Dumb Dumb HQ either. Yeah, so if you
Starting point is 00:01:36 like the sound of this live episode and you're thinking, well, you know, traditionally you guys do a bit of a landmark live episode, well, you're fucking spot on. Good work, Sherlock, you fucking idiot. So, look, there is going to be a live 400th episode, but who knows where it's going to be. We're going to have to – look, it's not going to be in Melbourne.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Put it that way. Yeah, we know where it's not going to be. Yeah. So that rules out one capital city. We've done a lot of live episodes in Melbourne this month. So let's do one somewhere else for number 400. So we'll be eking out the details soon. Yeah, great.
Starting point is 00:02:08 So keep an eye on the social media because we are working on that at the moment. But yes, in the meantime, nothing more to say except enjoy this episode live from Melbourne, Will Anderson, Fiona O'Loughlin and Tom Ballard. Hey, mates. Welcome. Hey mates, welcome once again into the little dum-dum club for another week. Thank you very much for joining us. My name is Tommy Dasolo and standing next to me is the other half of the program, the 42-year-old Carl Chandler. Go you kids! This is the sequel to the 40-Year-Old Virgin,
Starting point is 00:02:46 The 42-Year-Old Cunt. But that still implies I've had a couple of roots, so that's pretty good. Someone came up to me just before I was walking up here to do this gig that I'm currently in, and they... Oh, yeah, that's relatable for me. They said, hey, man, have a good show, and you know what? Fuck that fucking puppet.
Starting point is 00:03:08 I honestly couldn't tell if they meant aggro or you. Yeah, I have had a birthday. I am one of the rare people that has had one of them. Who's had a birthday this year so far? Oh, boo. Well, not many.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Yeah, all fucking, oh, our parents had a root in December. Oh. I, look, I think it's time for me to get over the fact of all the people who didn't bring me wedding presents and starting to fact of all the people who didn't bring me wedding presents and starting to get angry about the people who didn't bring me birthday presents. So, I've made a list. First of all, my wife.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Wow, Borat's angry. Who not only didn't give me a present, but isn't in the country at the moment, so... ..given herself a little present instead, so it's good. Wait, so, wait, did she go away on your birthday? On the night of. Wow. Did you give her a lift to the airport?
Starting point is 00:04:22 I did. LAUGHTER Did you give her a lift to the airport? I did. That was a pretty sweet birthday night of just me and Crunchy in the bed. In a nice way, yeah. Like tender and loving, not brutal. Yeah. She wasn't that brutal on me. Yeah, so... So, number one one my wife number
Starting point is 00:04:48 two any of my family number three well not even your brother that's surprising not even your brother you're fucking only child fuck got me you barely noticed he was an only child Anyway Mum and dad only rooted once That'll show me Number one my wife Number two my family
Starting point is 00:05:15 Number three my friends So just to wrap it all up Just the three people Types of people But But Someone has left me Some presents on stage which is um
Starting point is 00:05:27 very nice slash creepy um is this going to be one of these things where i open them and they are very disappointing for anyone that's listening what's going on what's your bets what's what's your what's your bet here um it's going to be worth me opening these presents i think it's something that someone thinks is funny like it's a personal joke from the show, and you open it up, it's like, oh, it's a crunchy bar, because that's your cat's name. Sorry, I know you don't want us to say its name on the podcast, but... I just don't want anyone looking it up on Facebook, all right? Finding out where it works.
Starting point is 00:06:02 All right, so... But having said that, you said that, I got a laugh. That would have been alright. Yeah. Alright. Okay, well, I hope I've stepped on the joke of whatever present this is. Alright, well, there's a card to start with. Read the card.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Read the card. Yeah, that's the... Alright, you fucking cunt. Is this to the card or to me? Well, look, I'll just give this much. It says, old person's birthday card. Is this to the card or to me? Well, look, I'll just give this much. It says old person's birthday card. Now, look, I don't know why I... For whatever reason, I'm the only old person on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Yeah, you get it. Guests, come on, who are way older than me and they don't fucking cop this shit. All right, all right. And it's wrapped in Hot Wheels wrapping paper. So there's mixed messages going on here. Yeah, exactly. Old person card, children's toy for the wrapping paper.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Pick a theme, dumb cunt. All right. Oh, you, fuck. Alright, uh... Oh, you, fuck! Oh, fuck. What is it? They've given me a t-shirt that says, I love barley.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on, seriously. I'm not putting it on. I'll put it on then. You put it on. Fuck. What? Oh!
Starting point is 00:07:38 Oh, what? What's it say? Everywhere. Oh, right. Everywhere. That's my name. Everywhere. Well, right. Everywhere. That's my name. Everywhere. Well, hang on.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Hang on. I'm not legally allowed to wear it then. Yeah. Hang on. So, sorry. I thought this was just a store-bought I Love Bali shirt. This is something that someone's made themselves. Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:07:58 This is a... You've gone into a shop and gone, excuse me, I'd like an I Love Bali and an Everywhere t-shirt. That's fucking worse than I thought. That answers my next question. Who did this? Alright, well there's... Put it on.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Put it on. Put it on. No. Put it on. Guys, respect on, look. Respect my religious convictions. You get to wear your birthday t-shirt and then you have to take your current shirt off so you get to show everyone the results of the gym you've been going to.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Carl's rig. Carl's rig. No, no, no. If the king sees this, I won't be led into the Costa Mui podcast festival. Come on, man. Just take your shirt. These podcasts are such a sausage fest.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Give the ladies some fucking eye candy. Keep them happy. No, no. I'm not going to... I cannot go along with this joke. You're actually not going to do this. I cannot go along with it. You're going to draw the line for comedy somewhere.
Starting point is 00:09:00 This is a mental illness. This is great. Just the minute it touches your skin. Yeah. I will never go to Bali. I will never be inside a Bali T-shirt. Now, if this next person is full of fucking spoons from Bali... Well, it is the home of spoons.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Yeah. All right, here we go. I hope this is a bit more respectful. All right, so you've got to read the card first because that's polite. That's what Mum taught me. So... Oh, yeah, all right. So now this one's happy birthday, girl.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Imagine. Imagine being a girl. Oh, fuck, money. Yes. Are you fuck? This is a rollercoaster. To Kyle, happy 50th birthday. But, oh.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Sweet tenner. Ten bucks inside the card. Thank you, Nan. Nice. And what else? What's that? You got a voucher? That's a two-for-one drink coupon from the European Beer Cafe.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Does that mean... The bartender just put his arm up like that was me. Was that actually you? Is this present from European comedy? All right, so... We'll hold on to that one. And so for people at home, this present is, like, in quite a big box. Yep. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:10:35 What is going on here? Yeah, well, fucking hell. All right. It's already been opened, so... Fuck. Oh, no, I'm not doing that one. Someone's given me a rival podcast hat. It's a hat from the serial podcast
Starting point is 00:11:02 and there's an embroidered dead body on it. It's pretty inappropriate, guys. Alright, well I wish I was back in the days when no one had given me a present. Happy birthday, Carl. I love the idea of people just going to shops, spending quite a bit of money, specifically for me to hate it. Thank you to the 198 of you who didn't give me a present, by the way. I really appreciate your lack of effort, genuinely.
Starting point is 00:11:29 So we've... In the past, we've kind of had people... We've had problems with people coming to these shows and, like, you know, coming in on the door fraudulently, like, sneaking in. Yes. So we've had to institute a policy this year of cross-referencing people's IDs with, like, the names that they booked the tickets under. So if everyone can get their ID out, it shouldn't be
Starting point is 00:11:47 much of a problem for most of you. The one that we are going to need to check first is Carlos Hoofter Comedy. We are going to need to see a driver's license that matches that name, otherwise you are going to be forcibly ejected from the venue. Where are you, Carlos?
Starting point is 00:12:05 Back here in here. So he was forced to spell out his name at the door, wasn't he? Carlos Hooft to comedy. So Why bother? I guess I get to read out your fake name now, so that's something. It gets you a little dicky hard, I guess.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Something. Well, anyway, good to have you, Carlos. Thanks, Carlos. What else? So what did you do for your birthday? Oh, yeah, yes. From drive your wife to the airport. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Maybe she was just waiting to get you something duty free and you'll get a present when you get back. Yeah, I wouldn't have thought so. She went to Malaysia. She went to Ronnie Chang Town. She's gone to Malaysia. So it's just, yeah, me and Crunchy at home. So what we did do was I got invited to the in-laws' place
Starting point is 00:13:00 for birthday lunch before that. And now you've met my father-in-law. I have. All right, mate. He, like, he's quite a bit older. He is, like, my wife is very... Because he's older. Put it this way, like, my wife is very clearly an accident
Starting point is 00:13:24 compared to the rest of the siblings gee I wonder why she's fled the country she's like quite a bit younger than the rest of the siblings so that means that
Starting point is 00:13:36 the parents are quite a bit older so the dad's quite getting on so you've you've met him and he did a quite a memorable speech at my wedding where he's sort of you know he's one of did quite a memorable speech at my wedding
Starting point is 00:13:45 where he's sort of, you know, he's one of those guys where, and it's like my dad, where they just go on and on about a story and they just go like this. Like, honestly, I was there the other night for lunch and he showed me a map of Bendigo for half an hour. Fuck. So anyway, that's what he's like. So he just goes on and on and on and I just tune out.
Starting point is 00:14:06 I tune out. Imagine going on and on and on about the one thing for way too long. That would be... I'd kill myself if I was ever found guilty of doing that. You better not watch your own comedy festival show then. So, um... So...
Starting point is 00:14:23 That was a good one. How's the writing of your comedy festival show going? Perfectly. I've got enough for next year. So, anyway, he was going on and on, and I just sort of tuned out. And then, you know the thing when you sort of tune out, and then you start getting flashbacks as to what you've subconsciously heard? Like, I was thinking about all the work I've got to do,
Starting point is 00:14:43 and then I go, and then I realise he's been talking about 10 minutes about something which I haven't been listening to. And then I start realising what he's been saying is, like, going, yeah, and then they all walked into this club and they weren't supposed to be in the club, and the guys are wearing these vests in this blue bar, and, yeah, it's all a bit awkward. And then I sort of click back into it and go, hang on,
Starting point is 00:15:07 what are you talking about? He goes, yeah, the blue. And I go, is this? And I realise he's talking about the blue oyster bar. He's been telling a story for ten minutes about a scene in the Police Academy movie. Over Good Friday and my birthday lunch, this 80-something-year-old bloke is just describing Police
Starting point is 00:15:25 Academy, scene for scene. That's him trying to reach out to you. He's like, this guy likes comedy, this will be a good present. One-man Police Academy. But he's describing the one bit and he just can't get over it. It's like, and that's a gay bar and these guys are going in there and it's like, you're not supposed to be in there. Alright, pass the
Starting point is 00:15:42 Easter egg. Cheers. He's an old man, he falls asleep and starts snoring. You're like, wow, he's doing some Michael Winslow gear. This is a motorbike tearing through the streets. Did they get you a present? No. They made me a big, big jug of
Starting point is 00:15:59 mousse though. It wasn't properly set so I didn't eat it. To be fair, they didn't yell out during the bit in the wedding where they say, does anyone have any objections to why they assume she's not being married, which is a pretty big gift I have to say. Yeah, so it was a bit disappointing.
Starting point is 00:16:19 But you know what happened this week? Is that I... I've talked about this a few weeks ago. I put out my first comedy album. And I'm trying to get it put onto USB. Yeah. So... So check back in for six years later
Starting point is 00:16:41 and the conclusion of this story. So what I did was... because it's available online, like it's on Gumroad online, right? But I want to put it on a USB to sell at gigs, right? So I hit up the guy who took care of it for me, which is Andrew Dootson, who used to be in Ending On For Tennis. So he's got it. I actually don't have a copy of my own album.
Starting point is 00:16:59 So I have to send it to... Well, I don't want to pay money for it. How did you get it online then? Someone else did it. So I hit up Andrew, I hit up Doody, and said, look, I need a copy of it to send to this Chinese manufacturer. Right. So he just sends me this file and I...
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's like Dasty Ari Records are putting this out. Awesome. He sends me this file and I go... And it's like, you know, in a... Like a... What do you call it? Like a... MP3.
Starting point is 00:17:35 No, no, no, no, no, no. Folder. Desktop. Computer. No. I don't know. No, you know when you send someone like a big file, like on a... Zip.
Starting point is 00:17:47 No. Oh, Dropbox. Yeah, Dropbox. The cloud. Something like that. Steve Jobs. So he sends me this file and I just forward it straight to China, right? I go, oh, that's it.
Starting point is 00:18:04 I just forward it straight to the manufacturer USB at China dot com Here you go boys It's not a big place it won't get lost So I forward it And then like a day later I go I should have probably opened that first
Starting point is 00:18:20 And so a day later I open it And I realise that what Andrew Doodson sent me wasn't my album at all. He just sent me a clip of me doing the joke duck sandwich on TV.
Starting point is 00:18:39 And I've sent that off to China to get manufactured. They love duck. It's like it's a 30-second clip. It's great. The duck is a fountainhead of Chinese cuisine. They love it. It's right up their alley. I had to fucking email him straight away and go,
Starting point is 00:18:54 stop making the USB. I can't sell a 30-second USB with duck sandwich the only thing on it. So now the list of things blocked in China, Google, Facebook and Carl Chandler. And had they listened to it yet? Did they have any response? They didn't make a comment either way. They just stopped manufacture of it.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Stop the presses. If I get any, if there's any, look, if they've made any, I'll ask them if they've made any like a short run of it. Oh, yeah, sick. And then we'll get some limited edition. Yeah, put them out for record store day. Seven-inch USB. Double A-side.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Duck sandwich and duck sandwich. Yeah. Oh, that's everything that happened to me this week. Well, should we get our first guest out here? Please. Folks, please welcome on to the little dum-dum club, Will Anderson. please welcome on to the little dum-dum club Will Anderson.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Yeah, go that one. Yeah, thank you. Thanks for having me. Just before we get into it, that's for your wedding and your birthday. Ten big ones. Someone's got breakfast radio money. And Tommy, this is from your mum.
Starting point is 00:20:06 Thank you. Thank you. For the listener at home, it's a box of condoms. So thanks, mum. She said, can you climb inside one and she's going to try to shove you back in. Good time to let you know, Will, that she's actually here tonight. I mean, that's how I got the money. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:20:31 It's a whole new program. She believes it's her body, her choice. I'm glad my wife is not in the country for this. Will, thanks for doing this. That's all right, my pleasure. By the way, can I just say before, if you are actually, you're like, what, there's people older than me on this podcast and why aren't they?
Starting point is 00:20:57 I'm older than Carl, just for the record. But the reason people don't mock me for it is because I've had a career in dumb shit. What sort of a crowd are you for chairing a millionaire punching down on some dumb cunt? I know. I do your main thing in my spare time
Starting point is 00:21:30 Well maybe you can help us You know what, I fucking miss aggro I know, it was kind of like this but without jokes Well, maybe you can help us because we had a... You know what? I fucking miss aggro. I know. It was kind of like this, but without jokes. It was an interesting experience. Yeah, because we had a really good year last year with the podcast. We went to Montreal, we saw you there, and we did the show at the Sydney Opera House.
Starting point is 00:22:06 We want to keep making the show bigger and bigger from here. Is there any advice you can give us to really break through into that next realm? Yeah, no, there is, of course. I'll stop you there. It can't involve suicide. Nope, no advice I can give you. Sorry. I had ten
Starting point is 00:22:21 different options for my first one. I love this podcast. You know that I love this podcast. I'm a big supporter. I'm a Patreon subscriber. You are? I had my name read out on the Patreon read section of the show because I support the show, so I love the show. Oh, you're Mohammed Comedy, right.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And a lot of my followers are mad at that picture you did of my face. This is... Should I say this is a spoiler for episodes coming up about what happened in Adelaide? Obviously, for people at home, they will know this by now, but in Adelaide, Daniel Sloss gave me the money and we made a dare. I'm changing my middle name to comedy. So...
Starting point is 00:23:07 So I've just done the paperwork, so... Really? Well, there's your wife's birthday present to you putting up with this kind of shit. So now I'm a person who's going to be driving around with a got-him number plate and the middle name of comedy. You are responsible for all of this. Imagine getting pulled over by the cops.
Starting point is 00:23:38 Can I see your licence? All right, we're going to need to bring this guy in. Is this your real name, Mr. Dasolo? Carl Comedy Chandler. I've never had a middle name, so finally. You know, that's something. Everyone always asks me, what's your middle name? And I always
Starting point is 00:23:57 say my initials are KFC. Carl fucking Chandler. So now I've got a... Now I say... Now you've got a... Now I say... Now you've got a new bit. Yeah. That's not quite as good and more confusing. You still don't have a middle name.
Starting point is 00:24:13 It's just a word that's in between your surname and your first name. That's what middle names are. What's your middle name? Tommy Fridge Dasolo. What is your middle name? Howard. Howard. Howard? Howard?
Starting point is 00:24:28 Hey, the perpetrators are in the room if you've got any. Little Howie. Little Howie. Little Tommy Howie. Little Tommy Howie. Is that named after? Because usually Howard, like your middle name is named after a grandparent or something. Was that just named after a duck?
Starting point is 00:24:45 Not just a duck, the duck. Oh, what was his name? Dassolo, that's where it came from. Dassolo the duck. Right. Tommy Howie Dassolo. Wow, I never knew that, I don't think. You definitely did.
Starting point is 00:24:59 Okay. It's not like me to forget something, so I doubt that. What's your middle name, Will? James. Oh, see, that's a nice... That's the name I wanted as a kid. I was actually upset as a kid I didn't have a middle name. And I asked my mum and dad for the middle name of James.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Well, firstly, it's good to know that you've always complained about shit beyond your control. I, uh... James, well, I'm named after my two grandfathers, so William and James. Very traditional naming of a child, but yes, so William James. Right, all right. That's all I am.
Starting point is 00:25:31 I don't have anywhere to go with that. I'm so sorry. That's fine, that's fine. Mate, you know what? Maybe I'll have comedy for a year, and then next year I'll get Sloss to pay me to change it to James. I want to know how much money it costs to change your name. It's like a couple of hundred bucks, that's it.
Starting point is 00:25:45 A couple of hundred bucks? Yeah. But then every time, like, aren't you, when you're filling in a passport form or any other form for the rest of their life, they're going to go, have you changed your name recently? And then you have to provide documentation about the fact that you've changed your name
Starting point is 00:25:57 and then on that legal document they're going to see that you changed your middle name to comedy and that's going to create a series of hassles for you that will ruin your life ongoing for the rest of your life. Here's my plan. I'm not going to do any of that. I'm just going to change my name and not change anything.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Yeah, and I can't see this... No, no, that's a much better plan. This is all part of your plan to be not let back into Australia so you can live in Thailand. Doesn't match the passport. I can't come back. I'm so sorry. I don't want to happen.
Starting point is 00:26:29 It was an administrative error. But I have to live here now forever in Thailand. I'm sorry. My name's Carl James Chandler, so I can't believe. Okay, Carl, this week we need to let the listeners know that we are brought to them by ShipStation.com. Nice, I'm looking at their website right now. Are you really?
Starting point is 00:26:52 Yeah, because I heard the ad at the top of the show and I was intrigued. I want to know more. I can see the reflection of your computer screen. Didn't know there were so many big busty women on the SuperShipStation.com. I just called them super ship station. I just say get ship done
Starting point is 00:27:08 and I'm getting some stuff done on this website. Oh, hell yeah. So if you sell on Amazon, eBay or Magento 2 or your own website then you need ShipStation. It's the fast and easy way to manage and ship your orders all from the one place. A lot of this copy feels like it's a deliberate tongue
Starting point is 00:27:24 twister. Even the title of the company, Ship Station. I think it's feeling deliberately like a tongue twister given that we're only one day out of having done the drunk cast. So just saying A, B, C, D, E is probably a... Yeah, walking into the cafe this morning and going, one coffee please was a bit of a tongue twister for me. So whether you're using eBay, Magento, Amazon, Shopify or over 100 other popular selling channels, Coffee, please, was a bit of a tongue twister for me. So whether you're using eBay, Magento, Amazon, Shopify,
Starting point is 00:27:47 or over 100 other popular selling channels, ShipStation brings all of your orders into the one place, making them really easy to manage from any device, even your mobile phone. Wow. I was going to say, I bet my mobile phone won't go into this category, but... Not excluded. The mavericks in at ShipStation
Starting point is 00:28:01 have made the unprecedented call to include mobile phones. Well, obviously, ShipStation was invented after 1982 and I doffed my hat to them. So then you can use ShipStation to create shipping labels for all the top carriers including Australia Post and Sendl. With ShipStation, you can ship more in less time with the best rates available. No wonder ShipStation is a popular choice of online sellers all across Australia. available. No wonder ShipStation is a popular choice of online sellers all across Australia. I dare say, looking at that big box of our merchandise t-shirts in your spare room and
Starting point is 00:28:32 the hastily scribbled addresses on post packs on your dining room table, this is something we could probably use. Yeah, look, I'm looking into this right now. I'm thinking, my wife could be using this. wife could be using this. I could be using this. It's a good looking website. What would your wife use it for? Because she's been selling stuff on eBay.

Starting point is 00:31:45 What's that? It's a fake business that we set up for your charity. What was your charity that you were competing for? Angel Flight. What's that? It's a... Fake business that we set up for this podcast. Is that a bar in King Street? No. It's a charity whereby pilots donate their time and their planes to fly people from the bush who need treatment to hospitals. Oh.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Yes. That's very nice. It is. It's very nice of me. How much did you donate to them? They won $100,000. Oh, nice. How much did you get paid to go on the show?
Starting point is 00:32:23 $150,000. You know what I like about that is that you didn't make that up. That's the sum, isn't it? Yeah, that's... Webby, Jesus Christ. Webby, our sound guy, is missing his anniversary with his girlfriend to do this. Fucking make it worthwhile, dude. Come on.
Starting point is 00:32:45 You're killing us, brother. She's going to dump you and so are we. We've got Will Anderson up here and someone that won a fucking reality show. Please. Won it by 62% of the votes. 62%? Nice.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Who were the people you were up against in the final vote? Shannon Knoll and Danny Green. No, but seriously. Seriously, though. Who were you up against? That's who I was up against. Oh, OK. All right.
Starting point is 00:33:20 What were they... Was there anyone good in there? Who was your least favourite? Who was my least favourite? Oldfields. They were revolting. David Oldfield, he's a politician, isn't he? Yeah, he's horrendous.
Starting point is 00:33:37 And I had a fight with him and then I just stormed out but it was in the jungle so it kind of didn't work. I just had to keep storming. More jungle. I had to come back in. I was really ineloquent too. And the fight went to air.
Starting point is 00:33:54 But you know when you have an argument with someone, you just want to go back and edit it? Yeah. I ended up just going, you made my fucking skin crawl. You fuckwit. And then I stormed out. But is that what you do when you're in the jungle? You're sitting there, like, everything you're doing,
Starting point is 00:34:06 you're going, this is going to be on TV. I'm just going to manufacture this. I'm going to stagecraft it. No, you can't. My mind is so old. Like, I could not. Finally, someone older than me. Good, another one.
Starting point is 00:34:18 I couldn't just keep thinking, oh, this is being televised. You go mental. Yeah, yeah. I didn't even realise where the main camera was until week five. And the shiny ghost. I just loved it. I didn't even realise where the main camera was until week five. And the shiny ghost. I just loved it. I'd lay around. I loved lying around. And I'd just lay around
Starting point is 00:34:32 and watch people. I mean, I'll stay on a tram for three extra stops if there's a Barney on the tram. I loved it. And I lost weight. Oh, but you were slim anyway. You didn't need to lose any weight. I went on a jungle moon before I went in. On a what, sorry?
Starting point is 00:34:47 A jungle moon. I just watched reality TV, ate whatever I wanted, and smoked inside my apartment. So I nearly had lung cancer. Okay. Now, just talk us through that. Why is that called a jungle moon? Because I was going to the jungle.
Starting point is 00:35:01 It's a play on honeymoon, baby moon. I don't know that being in the jungle is going to get rid of the stench of cigarettes from inside your apartment, to be fair. It's a play on honeymoon, baby moon. I don't know that being in the jungle is going to get rid of the stench of cigarettes from inside your apartment, to be fair. I was watching Real Housewives. I was just watching garbage, like mashed potato from my brain. I was watching Real Housewives
Starting point is 00:35:17 of Melbourne, screaming at this girl, Jackie Gillies, going, shut up, you fucking cyclops! And then... Because our eyes are really close together. And then I got to the jungle and she was in the jungle with me. You know that she didn't hear you through the TV, so you're safe.
Starting point is 00:35:41 I mean, technically you were right. She had fucked off from where she was to a jungle. She's the psychic, right? Who's married to the guy from Silverchip. And she actually is psychic, which is annoying. Yeah, she would be if that was a thing that you could be. Not psychic. No, but Jackie, I don't believe in it either, but she's in the camera.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Hang on, you don't believe in it. You just she's in the camera. Hang on, you don't believe in it. You just said she actually is a psychic. How do you explain this? She walks into the camera and she goes, oh, somebody's got a really sore tooth at the bottom back left side of their mouth. And I'm like, oh, I'm not telling her it's me. You know?
Starting point is 00:36:18 And you know when you've got a really bad tooth that you don't know what side it is? I'm like, anyway, it's up the top. What a bullshit psychic, you know? But then it turned out it was down the bottom and 45 minutes later they blindfolded me and drove me 45 kilometres. Because you're not allowed to see anything.
Starting point is 00:36:33 So when you've been taken out of the camp, you've got to wear blindfolds. I was blindfolded and taken to a dentist and had a molar pulled out of my tooth. Yeah, and that was off the back of Jackie Gillies prescribing? No. No, because I had a really sore tooth. Yeah, and had you told anybody else about that before that?
Starting point is 00:36:49 No, I had not. No, and 40 minutes later, just a coincidence, that happened, did it? It did. That's not the power suggestion in any way, is it? You know what I'm sensing at the moment? There's someone in this audience here who has a sore tooth. Does anyone have a sore tooth? Does anyone feel a bit sore in their tooth?
Starting point is 00:37:05 Are anyone's ears bleeding right now because of this constant feedback? I mean, it's nice to do a podcast inside a lightsaber from Star Wars. It's really terrible. I watched the last episode, Fiona. I watched the finale. I wanted to see if you won.
Starting point is 00:37:25 And you did. And it was such a great moment to see on TV because you've shared so much of your life over the last couple of years on this podcast. It was awesome to see you on the show. Because I can't write jokes. It was awesome to see you win it. And I was like, oh, this is such an amazing moment for my friend.
Starting point is 00:37:40 And then they came over and they put this, like, traditional African headdress on your head and you're just looking into the barrel of the camera and I was like oh no they've fucked it like she's going to get rinsed on Twitter for cultural appropriation like I was so scared for you in that moment I was screaming at the TV going get the hat off Fiona
Starting point is 00:37:57 and I couldn't bring the hat back, it was brown because of customs, it had wood and feathers in it so they made me leave it in Africa with my tooth. They wouldn't let you bring the tooth back? No, they wouldn't. Full of wood and feathers? Nor the 10 kilos of part
Starting point is 00:38:13 of my body. A lot of my body in South Africa. If Jackie Gillies is so psychic, why did she bother doing the show when she must have known she wouldn't win? Oh. wouldn't win. Because her real passion is dentistry. She saw an opportunity.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Did you see, we had that... What sort of magazines did they have in the African dentist, by the way? Oh, sorry, the blindfold. You didn't see. Really, really up-to-date National Geographic. Yes. All right, should we get our next guest out here? Yes, please.
Starting point is 00:38:58 Is he some sort of technician who can fix his fucking self? Let's see what he's got up his sleeve. Please welcome into the little dum-dum club, Tom Ballard! Tom, Tom. Great to be here, everyone. I love podcasting. Hello. I love all podcasts. Especially this one.

Starting point is 00:39:36 Have you got... Sorry, Tom, I know you've just got on, but I just have one more question for Fiona before we focus on you. No, no. It's all about the women. Have you got Jackie's phone number? No.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Really? Why? I just want you to text her and ask us what's going to happen to us. Not much. Oh, we can all guess that. I don't have to ask Jackie. Nothing. I get it.
Starting point is 00:40:06 So, Tom, you've been doing a show for the last few months on the ABC called Tonightly. I have. No-one's watching it. Pretty cool. No, we've brought in your audience here. There's about 10% of them, right? It's great.

Starting point is 00:40:44 He'll be back. Oh, truly a dark day that shall be. So you moved out because you moved from Melbourne to Sydney to do your late night show on the ABC. Now, look, it's no secret that, you know, we'd both like
Starting point is 00:41:04 to write for that show. so what I've done is in the spirit of like late night comedy, I've written a top ten and I've got here tonight the top ten things that are good about not living with Tom Ballard so, alright the top ten things that are good about not living with
Starting point is 00:41:20 Tom Ballard, here we go, number ten I'm now by default the most successful comedian who lives in that house. Yeah, Tommy. Number nine. I'm now by default the gayest man who lives in that house. Number eight. I'm no longer forced to send
Starting point is 00:41:35 anonymous daily messages to the Triple J Facebook page that say, this new breakfast team suck. Bring back the hot socially conscious blonde guy. Number seven. I was able to finally take down the free the refugees poster in the living room. Number six, I was also able
Starting point is 00:41:54 to finally take down the I love wanking poster in the kitchen. Number five, I can finally watch clips of Joel Creasy stand up without hearing, you know, he's actually not even gay. I'm a truther. Show me the evidence.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Show me. It's some fucking Andy Kaufman shit, man. Number four. It's really hard to think of ten of these. I genuinely don't know how Letterman did it every night. Number three. Now when I go to Sydney, I have somewhere to crash. And also I can take back a bunch of my kitchen utensils that mysteriously disappeared after Tom moved out.
Starting point is 00:42:30 I did not take your kitchen shit, cunt. Then where's the colander then? Number two. That was my colander. That was my colander. We're the original odd couple. Why don't you rinse your yourself through that fucking hat? Number two...
Starting point is 00:42:48 How long is the drum roll? Can I just find out? Number two, I can safely watch the Comedy Festival Gala without seeing some bum who's stolen clothes out of my wardrobe. And the number one top ten thing that is good about not living with Tom Ballard, I don't have a rich housemate to borrow money off anymore, which is good because my mum was starting to feel neglected.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Thank you very much. Woo! Alright. Now do a stupid pet trick. That's time for Small Town News. That was some quality content. I liked it. That was some quality content. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:43:26 That was good, yeah. All right, bye, everyone. The colander, can we get your opinion? Is it your colander? I mean, it feels like this is an issue that is a wedge between the two of you. And the phone's ringing. Maybe that's the head of colander HQ to weigh in. You know the colander is religious headwear for some people.
Starting point is 00:43:43 If you're a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, your religious headwear that you're allowed to wear is the colander. And I know this because my favourite news story was this guy on the news who got kicked off Threadbo because he was dressed as Chewbacca snowboarding and he was scaring children. And the guy who owned the mountain came over to tell him to stop scaring the children.
Starting point is 00:44:03 So he smacked him in the head with his snowboard and had to go to court and he wore a colander on his head to court. And he has it on his driver's licence photo because he's one of two people in New South Wales who's allowed to wear a colander on his head because he's a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I can relate. I have some religious headwear as well. Was that yours? Oh. I can relate. I have some religious headwear as well. Was that yours?
Starting point is 00:44:26 Oh, I'm sorry. The guy owned a mountain. How much do mountains cost? Well, I don't know if he owned it. He was just the boss of the mountain. I guess.
Starting point is 00:44:34 He didn't really own the mountain in the same way you were really in the jungle. Jeez. Look at Fiona. How much do mountains cost? Someone's I'm a Celebrity money is burning a hole in their pocket. You weren't really in the jungle and Tom's not really on TV.
Starting point is 00:44:55 It's ABC comedy. It's barely Channel 31. Sorry, you actually got the name of the channel wrong. ABC 2. ABC Carl Comedy Chandler. Carl Comedy James Chandler. Will your grandkids be named after you and therefore their first name will be comedy?
Starting point is 00:45:26 Yeah. Oh, yeah, it's going to become a traditional name in the Chandler family. Yes, great. Have you told your parents that you're doing this? Absolutely not. Well, I honestly don't know what my mum would make of it. She doesn't know what this is.
Starting point is 00:45:42 She certainly doesn't know what comedy is. Hey, I didn't know what this was and I'd done it four times. You know what? I talked to her on the way in today and she asked who was on, who was on the show and I said everyone and then she said, oh, Fiona, say hello to Fiona for me because she knows who you are and she goes, oh, how did she get on on that TV show? And I went, what, you mean the I'm a celebrity show?
Starting point is 00:46:06 And I went, yeah, that one. And she goes, and I said, oh, yeah, she won it. And she goes, oh, did she really? Well, pass on my congratulations. So, yeah. Now it feels complete. Yeah. Speaking of complete, you both worked with a complete cunt.
Starting point is 00:46:25 That is no way to talk about Tommy D'Asolo. That's me. You've both done reality shows with David Oldfield. Well, ours was an observational documentary, so I actually think... And also, you got more money for doing that. He bitched about you in the jungle. Oh, what did he say? Yes!
Starting point is 00:46:44 Yes! All right. All right. Guys, guys. Now. He bitched about you in the jungle Oh what did he say Yes Yes Alright Alright Guys guys Now Can we Can we turn all the lights off now Can we
Starting point is 00:46:51 Why does it always have to be about that for you I can't do it with the lights on Let's talk about boys we like He said To Peter Roselon He said Are you going to do a comedy skit for us later tonight?
Starting point is 00:47:06 And she was like, no. And nearly vomited. And then he said, oh, you're like Tom Ballard. I did a show with Tom Ballard. He didn't say one funny thing. Oh! He's heard our podcast. Yes, he doesn't know what funny is. No, it's quite hard to be funny
Starting point is 00:47:23 when you're just looking at him and yelling, you're a cunt. Although we do manage to do that on tonight, Lee, so something for everyone there. What was... Yeah, you're not a fan, obviously. Well, I'm banging on about Indigenous Australians not having invented anything. Yep. They didn't even invent the wheel.
Starting point is 00:47:41 And so, well, what were they going to attach the wheel to, you fuckwits? Kangaroos? You know, there's no animals in this country you can domesticate. I want to headbutt him. I hate him so much. I don't even think God likes David Oldfield. I think you're being a bit unfair, because I'm now imagining a kangaroo with two wheels on its tiny paws. And that would fucking get across the country at speed. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:10 He said, don't you think when white people rocked up and they would have used their guns to shoot a kangaroo, the Indigenous people would have been like, oh wow, look at this incredible technological advancement. I said, probably not, when they turned around the guns and shot them in the fucking face, mate. And then we made up. Oh. Nice. I said, probably not, when they turned around the guns and shot them in the fucking face, mate. And then we made out. Nice. Out or up? What?
Starting point is 00:48:32 You made out. Made out. I said made out. Oh, dear. I thought you said out or up there like you thought those were two sexual positions. Captain Eyebrows, his wife. Who's Captain Eyebrows? Oh, yes, Lisa, yes.
Starting point is 00:48:44 So they were odd. How many more reality shows is this Oldfield guy going to do? That's all he does. He did that food one. He did Hell's Kitchen. He did Celebrity Survivor. Yes. Wow, he's like the Adam Richard of comedy.
Starting point is 00:49:02 Because, Fiona, when you got back, you sent me a text message and went, Oh, I can't wait to come on your show and tell all the bad things that happened, all the real deal. What's the real deal? Well, oh, Paul Burrell, that was weird. He was Princess Diana's butler. Yep. And he, like, Princess Diana must have been a real nutter. Okay, God bless her.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Like... Because he was totally butlered up. Like, he was the queen's butler and knew all the protocols but then when she got him as her butler she said to him can you stop she was so lonely and she said can you please stop being the butler and just be my friend and so she kind of opened the gate and the horse bolted but i was really interested in how furious the royals would be with him because that's how he makes his living, talking about her. And he said, no, the queen is actually very... Because the queen still kind of gets messages to him
Starting point is 00:49:53 and she's very fond of him. And I'm like, why? And he said, well, Her Majesty is very grateful to me, not for the things I have said. Not for the things I have said, not for the things I have said, but for the one thing I will never say. And I was like, well, Paul, we need to go for a little walk. Would you just tell me?
Starting point is 00:50:21 But he didn't tell me. He didn't take you through a tunnel somewhere, did he? No. Don't tell me. He didn't take you through a tunnel somewhere, did he? No. Don't do that. He just... He killed me because... I mean, that's really anti the idea of this podcast, which is killing yourself off a bridge. But different because there's people wanting to take photos of you
Starting point is 00:50:40 in that scenario. Paul Burrell's anecdotes were all a bit like he was in some kind of Victorian fairy tale, you know. And I said to him, what did... That's right, because he was married and had kids. And I asked him, I said, when did you first realise that you were a florist? You know, because that's what he does now.
Starting point is 00:51:00 And he... Are you saying this is like when Elton John got married? Is that what you're saying? Yeah, because he's married to a man now. Hang on. I thought he'd gone from being a butler to a florist. He has. Oh, no, he has as well.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Okay, thank you. And he's married. It's a metaphor and it's literal. Because I'm a genius. I can't believe he's not Butler. But this is his... He said, when I told my wife that I was marrying Coop and told her that I was gay and I was going to marry Coop,
Starting point is 00:51:37 he said, she said... Sorry, say that you're gay first. You can't be like, hey, I'm marrying a dude. Yeah. Also, I'm gay. This is his version of events. He said, she said to me with a tear in her eye, she said, does that mean we won't be having Christmas together anymore?
Starting point is 00:51:51 I don't think that's what she said. I mean, I think she would have said a few other things. It's like the last sentence in a novel, in a mystery. The butler did it with a bloke. Carl Comedy Chandler, ladies and gentlemen. Carl Comedy Chandler. Happy birthday to you.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Happy birthday. That's fine. You had your chance a couple of fucking days ago. Who else? Who else was in the jungle? We had John Edward come into the jungle. Oh, right. So he's the other con man.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Crazy bullshit, that kind of shit. Like, he goes, so somebody over here... Has a sore tooth. We get it. We've heard that one. No, he's going, I don't understand this J. He said, there's a J name,
Starting point is 00:52:47 a John or a Joe. Someone's passed over. So, the spirit's going to come all the way from the other side. Why would it just come with its full name? You know,
Starting point is 00:52:56 fuck it, give us your street address. What's this about? And then he said to me, I'm getting a call. Comedy. Is there any comedy around here at all? Not tonight.
Starting point is 00:53:12 He said to me, he said, and your grandmother has passed? I'm like, yes, I'm 54. And then he said to Paul Burrow, he said, and you know someone who died of a massive heart attack? I was just, like, bursting to say... That is psychic, cos you do no deal, so... What I love about this the most is... People don't die of minor heart attacks.
Starting point is 00:53:37 I love the most... I love how sceptical you are of John Edward, but how all-in you are for Jackie fucking Gillies. She's a psychic dentist. Psychics can still be fucking idiots. But exactly like if Jackie was psychic
Starting point is 00:53:54 she would have married a dude who the band still continued on. Like there's fucking no more silver chair. Like why not marry someone from Coldplay?
Starting point is 00:54:01 That band's still around. Proof! Because her eyes are too close together. Alright. She was staring at the other two guys in the band. Did John get to die through Paul? Was he saying to
Starting point is 00:54:19 Paul, like, you lost someone in a tunnel? He said that. He actually said that. You had a friend in a car accident? I'm seeing a tunnel. I'm seeing a candle and some wind. That's just what I'm... I'm feeling there's a clue in her name. Die.
Starting point is 00:54:46 And all this... I'm feeling there's a clue in her name. Die. And all this... I can't stand pass away. Why do we have to say pass away? You're dead. Like, pass over, pass away. All right. I said to my cousin, her husband died,
Starting point is 00:54:57 and I said to her a couple of years ago at Christmas, I said, how long ago did you lose John? And she goes, I didn't lose him until he died. I don't know exactly where he is. So what language would you like us to use for your inevitable end, Fiona? That old bitch croaked it.
Starting point is 00:55:11 All right. Julie Known. We'll get T-shirts made and everything. Yeah. First line of the eulogy. Finally. I mean, it's a bit mean that considering how many times you've gone closer. This is the first time we're asking what your preferred term would be. I mean, it's a bit mean that considering how many times you've gone closer... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:29 This is the first time we're asking what your preferred term would be. It must have been about six times where someone said to you, go away from the tunnel. Go away from the tunnel, Fiona. I've got another name. I've had to add all these names. Now I'm Brenda. What's your middle name? I'm Brenda from the jungle.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Carmel. Carmel? Yeah. That's the name of my wife's sister. It's a Catholic name. Don't say her name. Yeah. Now I can find them all on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:55:54 I'll never give you Crunchy's middle name. Would you be, if we paid for it, would you get another middle name put in that just starts with a D so it can be Carmel D O'Loughlin? Well, I was in a cab last year. Sorry, that went unnoticed. No-one got it. Carmel D. I said some of that brilliant, subtle, cartoonish humour. Yeah, tax, that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:56:25 No, this cabbie last year, he said to me, you make a lot of people very happy, and I said, thank you very much. And he said, have a good one, ding dong. So I put D in there. Ding dong. Ding dong caramel. Yeah, can you get, yeah, a middle name ding dong. Man, I wish the fucking...
Starting point is 00:56:40 Man, just tell us what we need to do, Webby, for the last five minutes of the show. My God. Kill yourselves. Right. No, don't. I swear, we need one minute. We need one minute of this show that doesn't sound like shit.
Starting point is 00:56:56 It'd be awesome. We're not releasing any of this. I understand that it's like you're complaining a little about the sound. A little. But it is the first time you've played this venue, so obviously there was going to be some teething problems. If we could just, you know what, this would be like my comedy USB. If we could just get a 30-second joke out of it,
Starting point is 00:57:18 out of this podcast, get rid of the rest of it, we'd just get 30 seconds of no feedback, it'd be fucking sweet. You do know that's all that people will listen to on the actual CD anyway. What's wrong with, hey, what's wrong with having a number one hit as long as people buy the album that it's on? You know what you also need?
Starting point is 00:57:36 There was, you know Kamal Nanjiani? Has he done this podcast? Yes. And, you know, he made that movie with his wife Emily V. Gordon, The Big Sick, and they got nominated for an Oscar and stuff. Also, did you just call him Kamal? No, Kumail. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:57:50 Kamal is the other entertainer. Yep. It's okay. Kamal Nanjiani. Kumail. Dil's uncle. Yeah. We got there.
Starting point is 00:58:02 I mean, why are people so unkind? No, it's why are people so unkind? No, it's why are scales so unkind? So, Kamal Nanjiani, I have no idea why I fucking started telling this to you, you miserable prick. Made the big sick with Emily V. Gordon. Good to see you, mate. It was put up by somebody on Pornhub,
Starting point is 00:58:25 but it was one of the biggest Pornhub downloads. You've got to get duck sandwich on like Pornhub and that under dick sandwich. No, I would have gone with fuck sandwich. Fuck sandwich.
Starting point is 00:58:39 Fuck. Alright, alright. Let's do that. That'd be great. Someone should post that and see how many hits you get. Alright, I'll put it up on Facebook or whatever. I don't know how people rip it or whatever, but I'll put it up
Starting point is 00:58:49 if you can, if everyone could. Someone else can do the work for me. I don't even know how to send my album to China, as if I'm gonna fucking Send it to your little Chinese friends, get them to do it. Totally. Do they get YouTube? So what would the porno version of that joke be?
Starting point is 00:59:06 Well fuck sandwich sounds like a position Of like three people with some sweet little meat in the middle Yeah So the actual Finally I was surrounded by The actual joke starts with I was in a cafe The other day so you'd have to start
Starting point is 00:59:21 I was getting my dick sucked in a cafe the other day Just had bawdy stuff the whole way through. It's Easter. Come on. Fiona didn't come all the way back from Africa to hear this rot. I converted in Africa. I'm a Christian. Really? Did you get visited by
Starting point is 00:59:40 a missionary? Or did you have some? How about Mundine? Did you have much to do with Mundine? I didn't like him. Me neither.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Not a fan of the old gay bows that one. He said that if homosexuals if you were executed for your homosexuality
Starting point is 01:00:03 there'd be less of you. Well, I mean, you can't deny... He's got a bloody good point. Can't deny the maths. I did a TV show called The Fat with Anthony Mundy. Do you remember The Fat? It was Tony Squire's, like, panel show about sports. And I was on that show with him.
Starting point is 01:00:22 And at the time, he'd just become a boxer. And at the time, he was he was like fighting people who were mostly over the age of like 70 to try to get his rankings up and so I said to him as one of the questions, I said who's your next fight against, Ruth Cracknell? Who was alive, rest in peace, at the time it was a good joke, the lady from Mother
Starting point is 01:00:40 and Son. She's dead now. You'll enjoy that joke, it's what Carl calls topical material. And I... So... I say Ruth... Hang on, hang on. I've just got to edit my new show. So I... He stands up
Starting point is 01:00:57 and starts coming towards me. Seriously. Because that show used to go out live on TV. And Liz Ellis is sitting next to me Because I go to stand up Because I'm like Well it's funnier If I stand up
Starting point is 01:01:08 And he stands up Right But she's digging her hands Into my leg Going don't stand up He's going to fucking Punch you on live TV But in my head
Starting point is 01:01:16 I'm going He's probably not But if he does Fucking that's a win as well Because Like this is a moment That will be played Remember when that
Starting point is 01:01:25 Normie Rose on the midday show every fucking year Normie Rose doing nothing but yeah Normie Rose hit Ron Casey
Starting point is 01:01:32 on the midday show right if I could walk away I'd still make a 20 to 1 in 5 years so it's a good moment
Starting point is 01:01:41 right so I'm there ready to go and eventually Tony Squires gets him to sit back down. Because I'm a fucking dickhead. I say, well, we all saw who sat down first.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Anyway, they had to escort me to my car. Wow. But, so... What I got out of that show was that there were... So, there was two quitters. There was Mundine... Yeah. And there was Tomek, and they both quit.
Starting point is 01:02:13 Yeah. Which I was like, I cannot believe that they quit before you. Why not? You know what I mean? Because... But they're sportsmen. There's no vacuum cleaners in the jungle.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Yeah. Oh, go fuck yourselves. Too far, mate. We're all here for a good laugh and then you take it too far. Fucking hell. And for the record, the one thing that Fiona is not famous for is being able to quit this. to quit this.
Starting point is 01:02:50 So she kept relapsing in the van as they were trying to drive her out. Take me back. I'm an addict. Leave me in here. How do you suck vodka out of a panther bottle? What's his name? Tommy. I did a trial with him and he pegged on that and he said,
Starting point is 01:03:12 we're up in the air being, we're a harness though, what's the problem? But he got all sick and he had to finish and he had to say, I'm a celebrity, get me out of here, which finished the trial. And then when we were going back, it was in the rain, I'm carrying the stars. He was put to rest. Not that he wasn't dead.
Starting point is 01:03:31 He came in on a quad bike. It's a 30-minute walk back into camp. He's like on his back on a quad bike. And I'm 100. I'm like, you fucking piece of shit. So you walk back and he's on the quad bike? He's on the quad bike, yeah. Fuck.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Just too freaked out. And he got bitten eight times by a snake. Well, that makes it a little... It wasn't venomous. Simone got bitten eight times as well
Starting point is 01:03:58 but she didn't carry on but he's just a baby. Big fat baby. Are all the animals that bit you now dead? Or having a lovely sleep They're all loosey-goose I just bit O'Loughlin
Starting point is 01:04:15 Fuck, quick, suck it out, suck it out Before then they'd never heard a snake yell I'm a celebrity, get me out of here Yeah, there are snakes going Where's the antidote to O'Loughlin? But why would you leave the camp anyway? Because Josh Gibson was in there and the shower is open. Uh-oh. He's a good-looking cat, right?
Starting point is 01:04:41 Oh, yeah, and just sudsing up. Yeah. He was a sofa.looking cat, right? Oh, yeah, and just sudsing up. Yeah. He was a sofa. He pervs legally. You know there are men in Australia as well. You can just... You don't have to go all the way to Africa to perv on people in showers. You can just...
Starting point is 01:04:55 Is that right, Carl? Tell us more about how easy it is to perv on people in showers. Well, I'm a big fan of webcams, so, you know... Carl's Rick. Carl's know. Carl's rig. Carl's rig. Carl's rig. I feel like we're waiting on a last thing
Starting point is 01:05:12 that is, is it going to happen or not? Yeah. I'm just getting a big no from everyone. Okay. We meant to have
Starting point is 01:05:17 a last thing, but it's... Okay. Is there a joke coming? No. Well, we almost got there, everyone. I can tell this like... But the last five minutes, Webby, has been great sound up here.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Yes, yes. Worth it. Congratulations. If we can do... We just need to do another 40 minutes now so that we have a full usable hour and that'll be great. If we can only do the sound more than five minutes before the podcast next week, it should be good.
Starting point is 01:05:44 I finished my show the other night and I was talking to people at the end of it and there was a couple there and the girl in the couple, in my show I talk about how I've been taking epilepsy medication and she asked me, what's the medication that you take? And I told her and she said, oh I took that for a bit
Starting point is 01:06:00 be careful because it can cause really it can cause short term memory loss and it really like fucked me up. And I said, yeah you told me that the other night when you came. So Good stuff. Tommy it's Easter. Are you an epileptic as well? Huh? Are you an epileptic as well?
Starting point is 01:06:19 I'm not but I, it's like I have seizures in the night in my sleep. Man just take it, it'd explain a lot my sleep. Jeez. Man, just take it. It'd explain a lot of things. Just say. You're epileptic. What would it explain? I don't want to spell it out, but...
Starting point is 01:06:37 What about you, mate? What's wrong with you? I'm fine. What's going to explain this? I'm fine. So after my show the other night, this couple came up to me and... Are we getting the sound? Is that denial coming through? Is that alright?
Starting point is 01:07:00 Maybe I've got epilepsy because I've been taking a medication that affects my short-term memory loss as well. All right. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Are we? This guest is on his way but not sure how far. Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 01:07:18 All right. I want to look over your shoulder and see who it was. Can we spare another five minutes? Well, isn't there another show? Doesn't Josh Earle have to do this? Yeah, but who cares? I care.
Starting point is 01:07:30 That's one of the shows. Don't you know what time this is meant to start? Don't you know there's more people in here than your podcast? Oh!
Starting point is 01:07:46 Hey, guys. Guys, come on. We're all great podcasts here, okay? We're all friends. All right, we have... Oh, we're doing it. Okay, folks, we have our final special guest for today. No pressure on this bit at all. We've been talking a lot about I'm a celebrity, get me out of here.
Starting point is 01:08:05 Fiona, we actually managed to, in a huge coup for the podcast, we've managed to get someone who you were on the show with. Please welcome, fresh out of the jungle, it's Burn Atomic. Yeah! For the people at home, he's proving it by hitting balls into the ground. He's doing some great work. Hey, Bernard. Yeah, it's great to be here.
Starting point is 01:08:35 So wonderful. You guys are great. Bernard's from Australia, but go on. I'm not sure what's happening but thanks for coming on you remember Fiona obviously from the jungle I remember Fiona from the jungle when she used to wake me up in the middle of the night
Starting point is 01:08:59 showing me her big red pussy red? you didn't have any argument with the big but yeah me her big red pussy. Red? What? Oh, you didn't have any argument with the big, but yeah. All the fact that it happened. Just one specific...
Starting point is 01:09:22 Bernard, so there was a lot of controversy where you left the show early. You were like one of the only people who's ever gone on and uttered the I'm a celebrity, get me out of here in the second week. So why did you bail? What was the real reason? Well, you know, when you spend your entire childhood
Starting point is 01:09:37 you know, doing tennis and practicing and playing the game. Doing tennis? Yeah. Tennis is hard to do. It's really confronting when the queen of Australian comedy gets you to touch her big red pussy in the jungle. So I don't know if you heard this. None of this made it to air.
Starting point is 01:10:02 We didn't see any of this on the show. No, of course not. No one wants to see a big red pussy. I mean, it was really red. Super red. It was like, you know, the Batman phone when it glows? It was like it was emitting its own light. It was hard to sleep.
Starting point is 01:10:21 Her pussy was so big and red. I'd be like, can you please turn off your pussy for one moment? And she was like, it never turns off. The tech problems are back. It's hard to know if it's the tech or if this is the microphones trying to get themselves out of this bed. Or is it Fiona's pussy just radiating something? That's been the problem all day.
Starting point is 01:10:46 It's on the same frequency. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought it. Big red pussy, worst Wiggles spin-off ever. Will's going to faint. Don't talk to me, red pussy. It's going to haunt me through my dreams. Bernard, where are you from? I'm glad again, I'm sorry. I can't remember.
Starting point is 01:11:08 I'm from Europe. Idiot. Don't be so mean to me. So was there anything else that... So what, it's just being haunted by the pussy that made you leave the jungle? Yeah, I just was like, this isn't worth it. You know? How much
Starting point is 01:11:25 did you get paid? I got nothing. They were like... You didn't deserve it. They were like, you are a good boy. The thing that's convincing me you're a tennis player is that you are remarkably sweaty. Yes.
Starting point is 01:11:42 Almost like you were playing a game of tennis just before you came here. Almost like you had another show and you raced up really quickly to be here. Yeah, it's almost like that. Because there was a lot of tucker challenges over there as well, so that must have been hard. Well, I tell you what, once you have spent a night
Starting point is 01:11:57 growling out a big red pussy. Oh, Bernard! Come on, it's Easter, mate. Yeah, well, I tell you what, once you've done that, you are begging for a cockroach milkshake. Bernard, we very quickly... Much like the actual Bernard comic, you had us and then you lost us.
Starting point is 01:12:34 Fuck off and count your millions. Is it too much talk of the big red pussy? I think just the right amount. We've got to wrap this up pretty quickly but I can't help but notice you brought something in with you. Yes. Listen, this is a little behind the scenes. I brought it for my friend Carol.
Starting point is 01:12:55 And it is just a little behind the scenes, a little shot. Is this for my birthday? Yes. No. Yes. You forgot that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's for your birthday. Birthday, okay. Good. That was the context that sentence? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's for your birthday.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Birthday, okay. Good. That was the context, remember? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You told me to say big red pussy as much as possible. No, no, I didn't. We did not say that.
Starting point is 01:13:16 No, you did. We did not say that. Don't go too far behind the curtain. Saying that in front of, I've got a gay friend here, a gay man, he doesn't need to hear that. I'm not gay. Pro I've got a gay friend here. Gay man. He doesn't need to hear about it. I'm not gay. Prove it. Prove it. Prove it.
Starting point is 01:13:30 Prove it. I'm so sorry. Aha, you're gay now. That's how it spreads. That's how they get you. I want to go back. I'm just hanging in here behind the dudes. Watch out, Joel Creasy.
Starting point is 01:13:47 I'm coming for your career. And you, Colander. All right. It's me. Actually, that's probably what the pussy looks like. Yes, Ray. Drain some spaghetti and it's time. All right.
Starting point is 01:14:04 Ray, that's unfair. Coming from two guys who have little experience in that area. Alright, Bernard, do the bit. Okay, here's a little picture of us in the jungle. Oh, yeah, right. I wear glasses.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Right. That is proof that you guys really got on in the jungle. That's ten bucks at Officeworks you guys really got on it on In the jungle That's ten bucks at Officeworks right there Thanks guys Some children were around when I printed that Anyway, can't go back in there anymore
Starting point is 01:14:34 Alright folks We've got to wrap this up We should have gone out a big red pussy Big round of applause Fiona O'Loughlin Will Anderson. Tom Ballard. Burn Atomic.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Yes. No, that's alright. Guys, thanks very much for listening and we'll see you next time. See you next. And once again we are back with another
Starting point is 01:15:03 landmark edition of Talking Dum Dum. And this episode of Talking Dum Dum, we just sent it to ourselves via ShipStation. Yes. So it's very handy. Yep. Yep.
Starting point is 01:15:15 A bit of a roundabout way of me getting my hands on the episode. You know, me downloading it, putting it onto a USB, shipping it to myself and then beginning the editing. There's probably an easier way to do that, cutting out the middleman. I don't think there is. Okay, cool. Shipstation.com. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 01:15:34 Should we do any housekeeping off the back of that live episode? Is there any answers? I mean, we recorded quite a while ago now, so I always feel like we should be talking about explaining something within a live episode. Apologies for the audio quality. Oh, really? It's not ideal, but what can you do?
Starting point is 01:15:50 Oh, really? Yeah. If only we'd paid a good tech to... If only. Fuck. A sleep at the wheel on this one. Really? Fuck.
Starting point is 01:16:00 It's fine. Webby, what the fuck are you doing? It's fine. Well, just as well we're not bringing him to Koh Samui. Uh's fine. Webby, what the fuck are you doing? It's fine. Just as well we're not bringing him to Koh Samui. Uh-oh. Good ep though. Yep. I think.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Right. Still a good ep. I hope it's fun to listen to. The quality of the content outshines the quality of the audio. Oh, God. Webby, what the fuck did you do? This is the same man who then after this episode forgot to hit record on the bonus Patreon episode as well.
Starting point is 01:16:29 Until 10 seconds in, yes. He's had a good day. Thanks, Webby. Something going on. He was great all the other weeks though. There's something going on this week. But, hey, why be negative? Because that's what this show is.
Starting point is 01:16:42 That's our brand. But, yes, good times. Yeah, and hey, three more weeks of these to come, plus in the middle of this schedule we did a little studio episode. So I think we're going to slot that in what, in the middle of these? Yeah, sure. Yeah, we do have a lot of episodes up our sleeve, which is very unlike us, which is great,
Starting point is 01:17:03 which means that we, A, have got plenty of time to stretch out and record some other episodes, or B, we'll forget about that and in four weeks' time go, oh, fuck, we've got to do an episode. I know. Which won money, which, oh, God. Anyway, like you said before, the drunk cast was two days ago. Yep. Like we said, like we teased at the top, 400th episode is coming up.
Starting point is 01:17:23 So, yeah, we would like to do a live episode somewhere. You'll find out where that is very soon. But it will not be in Melbourne since we've drained Melbourne dry, I think. I think Melbourne's podcasted out. Looking forward to this coming out and absolutely copying it on social media. Oh, why not Melbourne? No, I think – I didn't come to any of the comedy festival ones and now I'm shitty about this. Yeah, I like a bit of that. I love a bit of – can I come to the drunk cast. No. I didn't come to any of the comedy festival ones and now I'm shitty about this.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Yeah, I like a bit of that. Love a bit of, can I come to the drunk cast? No. Why not? Because you need to have gone to one of the other live podcasts that's been on in the last four weeks. I just didn't go, but I still want to go to the thing that you're not allowed to go to unless you go to that one.
Starting point is 01:17:58 Yes. Hey, fuckheads, how much clearer can we make it? Fucking hell. And yes, thank you to everyone who came down to the drunk cast. Should we talk about that a little bit? A very fun night. Yeah. Do we need to talk about it?
Starting point is 01:18:11 I don't know. Yeah, if you want. I don't know. We had a good time. Yeah. That's all I wanted to say. Okay. Thanks to everyone who came.
Starting point is 01:18:16 And once again, yes, always a great night. Always a very fun, you know, always a very fun crowd. People turn up and really get into it and that's what makes it good. Yeah, and also we, just so you know, when people say, why don't you record it? We're not going to record it. That's not what it's for. It's for a release button at the end of a long run of everyone doing shows
Starting point is 01:18:37 and stuff like that and it's our little end of season party and we don't have to think about how it's all going to get recorded properly and come out. We can do a bit of visual stuff. Yes. It's just a lot of fun and it's a nice little feeling in the room of you're getting this on the night and you can't get it any other way. Yeah. So I like that. There was a costume that I hired that I took back to the costume shop yesterday.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Yes. Very worried about what the state of it would be. Yep. Whether I'd be getting, whether that imprint of my credit card would be being used. And? And I've gotten away with it. Oh, nice. They've done it again. Nice.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Four years running where we've hoodwinked a, no, three years running. Yeah. Hoodwinked a costume shop into, yes, giving our deposit back. Great. Nice one. Long may it continue. Big relief. It was a fun night.
Starting point is 01:19:27 It was a pretty brutal night. Lots of favourite friends of the show popped up and had drinks on stage and things like that. And we had a – A bit of karaoke. Yeah, a little bit of karaoke. That was fun. It was fun. We haven't done that before, so that was nice to see.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Some of your favourite friends of the show have a little little belt out a few show tunes and etc um i had a little play at the start yeah it was fun yeah but all that's over with um so you've got a heap of lovely live episodes to look forward to in the next month or so yeah and looking ahead it is only six weeks or so until the kosamui international podcast festival my god so if you're keen to come to that, you know, still time.

People are – like you said, what, six, seven weeks out, something that they have just suddenly decided to go. So people are still doing that.
Starting point is 01:22:45 People are, like you said, what, six, seven weeks out, something like that. There is time to go. There'll still be plenty of, you know, breakups that happen in the next six weeks where people go, okay, fuck this. I'm not with my partner anymore. I'm going to Thailand.
Starting point is 01:22:58 And you can still get your flights because, after all, we haven't fucking got ours yet. So there is plenty of time apparently. Absolutely.

Starting point is 01:23:30 names out here on Talking Dum Dum. A big thank you to you guys to make you part of the little club. And of course we get the unplanned
Starting point is 01:23:38 Total Alternative out every week just to make it fair. So let's crack in this week. Thank you to Patreon subscriber Tom Coppola. Tom Coppola? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:50 Or Coppola? Coppola? Is this – Coppola to the money Tom gave us. Is this related to Francis Ford? I can only assume that he's spending the Apocalypse Now inheritance on us, $5 a month at a time or so. Brother of Sophia?
Starting point is 01:24:09 Very cool. Yes, in relation to Nicolas Cage for some reason as well. Really? Yeah, yeah. Nicolas Cage's original real name is Coppola. Oh, really? I did not know that. No, you didn't know that.
Starting point is 01:24:20 Didn't know that at all. I'm not sure whether he changed it or the Coppola family made him change it, so he's not associated with it. That's cool. Sofia Coppola, The Virgin Suicides, very much on brand for this show. Oh, yeah. I haven't seen it. I assume they all drive off the West Coast in that movie.
Starting point is 01:24:36 I was just watching Lost in Translation the other day just to see if it held up or not. Does it hold up? I only got, say, 20 minutes into it, but I was enjoying it. Well, fuck, mixed reviews there. I'm loving this. Stop. No. Well, you know me. I'm got, say, 20 minutes into it, but I was enjoying it. Well, fuck, mixed reviews there. I'm loving this. Stop. No. Well, you know me.
Starting point is 01:24:48 I'm a businessman, Tommy. I don't have a lot of time to sit down for 100 minutes and watch one thing in one go. I'm on the go, mate. You split it up over five separate 20-minute installments. Man, I honestly watched the end of Full Metal Jacket today, and it's taken me two months to watch it in 20-minute increments. I'm starting to think maybe that's affected my enjoyment of that movie. Yeah. No, I know what you're talking about. metal jacket today and it's taken me two months to watch it in 20 minute increments i know i'm starting to think maybe that's affected my enjoyment of that movie i yeah no i know what
Starting point is 01:25:08 you're talking about i i yeah i have a hard time watching movies at home because i know i'll get distracted or i'll think of something else i have to do and i can't i can't watch it in increments do you know what i mean like once i'm in i want to sit and just watch the whole thing yeah and it's rare that i can bring myself to go i'm going to commit to something in my house for an hour and a half now. Yeah. No, that's totally me. I feel guilty watching one thing all in a row because I think I've got something else to do.
Starting point is 01:25:31 But having said that, now that we're out of doing a lot of live shows and a lot of work and stuff like that, I am trying to force my body to act like a normal person and just sit down and relax and watch a couple of things. Yeah. So I just finished season two of The Good Place. Oh, yeah?
Starting point is 01:25:49 Yeah. Love it. Really? Yeah. Okay. Do you not like it? I watched two or three episodes on a plane and liked it but not enough to follow it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:59 But maybe I will. When I've run out of other stuff to watch, maybe I'll go in. I recommend it. Okay. You know what? I watched quite a few episodes at the start thinking sort of the same. I thought I'll just stick with it and I very much appreciated my own decision. Okay.
Starting point is 01:26:14 Yeah. And towards the end, it then turned into a show where I was like, no, I want to watch the next one straight away. Yeah. I've heard that it progresses really well. For me, the first one I liked, but it was a little too quirky. Right. You know what I mean? A little too much like, eh. Yeah, I've heard that it progresses really well. For me, the first one I liked, but it was a little too quirky. Right. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:26:26 A little too much like, eh. Yeah, yeah. No, I'm enjoying what they're doing. Okay. Yeah, I think it's a well-worked show. But lost in translation. Yeah. People very off that film in 2018.
Starting point is 01:26:39 Yeah, that's what I'm hearing. A bit culturally insensitive. Can't fucking do anything anymore. You know what I did do? I watched, I think I got up to the bit where, you know, when Bill Murray records the ad of Santori Dry and there's that scene where he goes, how do you want me to do it? And then the Japanese director goes, da-da-da-da-da,
Starting point is 01:26:59 and talks for like five minutes and then the translation is, just look at the camera. I looked up what he was saying. I think that's when I stopped watching the movie and I just translated it and it's just him saying a lot of boring English stuff. Oh, really? Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 01:27:15 Okay. Because you watch it and go, oh, I wonder what he's saying. Well, of course you can just look that up now. Yeah. I looked it up and it's like there's ten websites going, have you ever wanted to know what he says in that ad? Here's what he says in that ad. The results will shock you. Yeah, yeah. And I looked it up and it's like, there's 10 websites going. Have you ever wanted to know what he says in that ad? Here's what he says in that ad. The results will shock you.
Starting point is 01:27:29 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you know Suntory Dry? That is, I was doing a bit of research for something else and this came up, but that's a real brand. Yeah, I know. I didn't realise that. Oh, and, fuck, here we go. Now, this is talking dum-dum.
Starting point is 01:27:43 So, you know the reason why Suntory Dry is in that ad is because Sophia Coppola directed Lost in Translation and Francis Ford Coppola, Sophia's dad, did an ad for Suntory Dry in the 70s. Oh, right. It's actually in an ad for them. Okay. In a very bad ad for them. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:02 Why did you say now this is Talking Dum Dum? Well, this story about Francis Ford Coppola has nothing to do with this podcast. But this is like, you know, Talking Dum Dum, we talk about Dum Dum. Well, this is behind the scenes of, well, it's more talking lost in translation. It's Talking Coppola. Yeah. Talking Coppola. It's Talking Coppola.
Starting point is 01:28:19 Let's do a new segment within this spinoff segment every week where we just check in with the Coppola extended universe. Yeah. We could talk about the band Phoenix for a bit because the main dude is married to Sophia. Well, you know what? That reminds me of maybe following up on last week. You proposed a regular segment last week.
Starting point is 01:28:38 We were checking in on your next-door neighbour, Dilruch Jones. Oh, yes, Dilruch Jones. The baby. Yeah, Dilruch Jones. Who you live next door to. So he's the one actually who tipped me off about Lost in Translation being problematic in 2018. I'm surprised you didn't think of that before we just came out.
Starting point is 01:28:53 So a baby said to you. A baby said to me. And that's what made me think, I'm like, fuck, if a baby has an issue with this, what kind of self-respecting 30-year-old can enjoy this movie? That makes a lot of sense because the baby wasn't around 15 years ago whenever that was made. So he's really tuned into the now moment.
Starting point is 01:29:10 He's probably woke. Yeah, he doesn't have nostalgia. He doesn't have like any previous. He's not like you watching it, remembering watching it at the time, being a fan of the previous work of Bill Murray. This is the first thing he's ever seen Bill Murray in. Right, right. So he's like.
Starting point is 01:29:22 He's not one of these Bill Murray tragics and stuff like that. He's just seeing an old man being a little bit inappropriate. Yeah, he went from – yeah, so he watched that. He likes Bill Murray in it. Right. So then – How old is Dilwick Jones, by the way? He's a one-year-old baby.
Starting point is 01:29:35 He's one years old. He's the one-year-old baby that lives next door to me. Right. Do you still call a one-year-old a baby? I think so. Okay. So he – what was his first words to me? Last week I had a story about what his first words to me were.
Starting point is 01:29:49 They were something to do with this. But anyway, his second words, not just to me but in this life, were lost in translation. I watched it last night. It doesn't hold up. And it's extremely problematic. Right. Well, there's a lot of first words there, a lot of second words.
Starting point is 01:30:05 He's developing at a pretty impressive rate, I have to say. For a one-year-old, he sounds a bit like a wanker, I'm going to have to say. I'm not looking forward to by the time he turns 20 or something. He's, yeah, I'm a bit, I'm worried about, I think it's like a bad first Bill Murray film to go in on. Right. Because it's now he's turned off, he doesn't even want to watch Garfield 2. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:30:24 Well, maybe this is good then. Like, you'll love it. This is what – you're a one-year-old baby. You should be – your first exposure to Bill Murray should be in the Garfield movies. Yeah. Not in Lost in Translation. That's a bit – yeah, that is a bit weird to see a baby watch Garfield 2 and go, oh, the guy from Lost in Translation.
Starting point is 01:30:41 Yeah. And it's weird because it's like him thinking it's problematic is weird because this film is the first time he's ever seen a Japanese person either. Right. Okay. So, I mean, that speaks volumes about how problematic it is. Right. He doesn't even know what racism or sexism yet.
Starting point is 01:31:00 He doesn't even have cultural context of the Japanese or anything about them. Wow. But somehow still it's such a glowing beacon that he's able to go, this don't feel right. Right. He doesn't even know what racism is and he knows it's racist. Yeah. Wow, that's racist.
Starting point is 01:31:15 Man, he's fascinating. Yeah, it certainly sounds it. This one-year-old baby that lives next door to me. As Hank Hill famously said, that boy ain't right. Does he just roam around? So he looks over the fence like Home Improvement style? Yes. Right.
Starting point is 01:31:30 He's always, he's got a little fisherman's hat on. Right. Oh, right. So I, yeah, I've. And does he look over the fence or does he look under the fence or? How's he, how could he, how could he look over the fence or is it just a really small fence that he's like a one foot fence? There's a crack in one of the, like one of my fence posts kind of like lifts up under
Starting point is 01:31:49 the bottom. Oh, right. From when the little rascals kind of like cut through my backyard. So he kind of, yeah, he's on ground level and he kind of pushes that up. Right. But I still can only see like half of his face. So I've actually never seen his full face. Oh, right.
Starting point is 01:32:04 Yeah. So you just, so you actually, if Dilwrook Jones walked in right now, you wouldn't even recognize him. Um, no, I wouldn't. Right. Yeah. I wouldn't. Um, I mean.
Starting point is 01:32:12 Could be any baby to you. Could be any one year old baby. Yeah. Right. Okay. Wow. Fascinating. So is that enough of an update on Dilawrook Jones, the one year old baby that lives next
Starting point is 01:32:20 door to me? I think I've got a lot of questions, but I think we can eke them out over the next few weeks. All right. Dilawrook Jones. Sorry've got a lot of questions, but I think we can eke them out over the next few weeks. Alright, Dilruch Jones. Interesting. Also, but weirdly enough, tying back to the episode of Talking Coppola that we just did, big fan of Suntory.
Starting point is 01:32:36 Are you? I've never had it. No, Dilruch Jones is. I am though, but I got him onto it. But Suntory make everything. They make canned coffee and stuff as well. Yes, you're right. So I'm into it for that. So I've gotten Dilrub Jones, the one-year-old baby that lives next door to me.
Starting point is 01:32:51 I've got him hooked on coffee at a young age. It's like when we go to Thailand and they have like Chang and Singha beer, obviously, but then they also make water, which is odd. But Suntory, you know, when you watch that movie, when you watch Lost in Translation, you think, oh, this is a made-up brand. It's not a made-up brand. It's a real brand. They didn't even hit up Suntory to go know, when you watch that movie, when you watch Lost in Translation, you think, oh, this is a made-up brand. It's not a made-up brand. It's a real brand. They didn't even hit up Suntory to go, can we use this?
Starting point is 01:33:09 They just did it. Well, I don't know. First of all, I don't know how many people would just assume that it's a made-up brand. And the other thing is, yeah, why would you need to get – it's just like, cool, here's a free ad. I know, but like you would say in this day and age that you would tie up a deal with someone
Starting point is 01:33:26 if you were going to feature them so prominently. Oh, you would get money. Yeah, right. Because now I would go, if I was in Japan, I'd go, oh, I'm going to get a Suntory or whatever because that's cool because of that movie. Yeah. They're just getting that free sale from me. That would have been sick if like, so they don't ask Suntory for permission.
Starting point is 01:33:42 So if Suntory then for their next ad, they literally had just ripped footage from Lost in Translation and just played that as the ad. Because you think Bill Murray has just done a big old, like a fake ad in the movie for Suntory, but effectively he's done a real ad for Suntory. Totally. Yeah. They just got Bill Murray as their spokesman for free.
Starting point is 01:33:59 Yeah. That's fucking insane. That goes back to Doug Stanhope the other week on our show going, let's just get yourself a sponsor that doesn't agree to it at all. Yeah, and they sponsor it whether they want to or not. Because I was thinking maybe we make Greenbird Restaurant or Mr. Crab Restaurant our sponsor for the Coast of Millie podcast. That's not bad.
Starting point is 01:34:17 Just grab one of our favourite places that's in Coast of Millie and just force their sponsorship against us. Yeah, that's pretty cool. We should do something like that. Yeah. Well, let's work on that as us. Yeah. That's pretty cool. We should go – yeah. We should do something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let's work on that as well.
Starting point is 01:34:29 Okay. All right. Thanks, Coppola. Thank you to – I hope they all take this along. Thank you to Patreon subscriber Sabrina Catarellis. Oh, Catarellis. Big fan of the name Sabrina. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:43 The Teenage Witch. Yeah. It's – I mean, it's forever linked with that. You can't get away from that. Now, I loved that show because I think I was the exact right age for it when it came out. I dare say you've got some thoughts. No, it's just a show that existed without me needing to be part of it. Never watched it?
Starting point is 01:34:59 Oh, without you needing to be part of it. It existed in spite of them not having you in it. One of the rare shows. Yeah, it was just a show. It was like, it of it. It existed in spite of them not having you in it. One of the rare shows. Yeah, it was just a show. It was fine. It was okay. It was a bit young for me. I didn't really watch it.
Starting point is 01:35:12 I did think, was it Melissa Joan Hart? I do find it odd that she gets work with her technique of acting. She's very rah, rah, rah, rah all the time. Yeah, but when you say get work, apart from that one show, is she in much stuff? I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I'm not –
Starting point is 01:35:31 You've answered your own question. She doesn't get work because of it. Well, I'm sure she's not poor now. I'm sure – I'm looking up her IMDB as we speak. Let's have a look. She would be in other stuff, surely. You don't just go from being the star of Sabrina the Teenage Witch for 10 years or something and then get nothing else, surely?
Starting point is 01:35:50 She'd probably have like bit parts here and there. She was in a show called, oh, she was in Clarissa Explains It All for three years. Oh, yeah, okay, that's right. She was in Melissa and Joey for five years. So, well, there's a good 15 to 20 years of work Should be getting some Sweet residuals off Of Sabrina and stuff as well
Starting point is 01:36:09 Yeah exactly Exactly So That'll be rebooted pretty soon I'm sure Ah yes Yeah Boy I can't wait to see that
Starting point is 01:36:16 You know That talking cat When it's just not some Piece of shit puppet When it's like a full on CGI Oh yeah Andy Serkis Running around the house
Starting point is 01:36:24 Yeah Yeah totally What if they came to you And they said puppet when it's like a full-on CGI Andy Serkis running around the house. Yeah. Yeah, totally. What if they came to you and they said, we want to cast Crunchy as the new Salem character in Sabrina the Teenage Witch? I would say, good luck getting Crunchy to do fucking anything. That's what I would say. She is a... We found this out.
Starting point is 01:36:41 She's not... Like, I've had cats before, and they're always pretty compliant with stuff but she's a breed that doesn't particularly want to fucking do anything that you want it to do. So she's – yeah, she's a bit of a pain in the ass. I love her still. Wow. You turned – oh, cracks are starting to form in this relationship. Yeah, she's a bit of a pain.
Starting point is 01:37:01 She's a bit painful. She wants to wake me up every morning at 4 a.m. She doesn't – she won't sit on your lap. She's a bit painful. She wants to wake me up every morning at 4 a.m. She won't sit on your lap. She won't give you too much affection. So it's like, all right, come on, Kat. We've got to get something out of this relationship. You're getting fed. It's pretty one way at the moment.
Starting point is 01:37:15 Exactly. And I'm hoping, she just turned one. We had a birthday party for her. Did you really? Yes. Saddest thing I've ever heard. Now, this is what happened the other day. You'll enjoy this. So it is what happened the other day. You'll enjoy this.
Starting point is 01:37:27 So, it was her birthday the other day and so my wife said, we should throw a party for her. And I'm like, well, that's just a word. Like, we're not actually going to have a party. And she said, I'll make a cake for her. I'm like, okay. What does she like? Now, what she does like is, like a lot of animals,
Starting point is 01:37:42 she likes whatever you're eating. Yeah. So, I'll quite often me personally yes i'll i'll quite often if i'm making a meal like at lunchtime i'll make like a bit of meat and then some potato mashed potato and carrot and peas and stuff like that so she gets fascinated by that she loves mashed potato now okay so if i make that she just wants mash she jump on the table she wants mashed potato so I feed her big nuggets of mashed potato and she fucking chomps it all up so then my wife goes
Starting point is 01:38:08 okay I'll just make her a cake of mashed potato and like makes a cupcake and puts a massive big ball of mashed potato in it and sits it down and expects the cat to eat a cupcake
Starting point is 01:38:18 full of mashed potato and by the way more than she did for your birthday which we talked about in this episode absolutely correct yes and so she puts a big cupcake of mashed potato By the way, more than she did for your birthday, which we talked about in this episode. Absolutely correct. Yes.
Starting point is 01:38:26 And so she puts a big cupcake of mashed potato and just sits there and puts a couple of bits of ham on it. Oh, here we go. Now it's firing up. Even more than what I got. But, yeah, sits there and waits for the cat. And the cat just walks up and goes, absolutely not, and just walks away.
Starting point is 01:38:42 You know what's weird? It's the exact same way that I helped celebrate Dilawar Jones' first birthday. Really? The one-year-old baby who lives next door to me. Really? Yes. What, a mashed potato cake?
Starting point is 01:38:51 Mashed potato cake. With a bit of ham on top. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he loves it as well. And he ate it though? He ate it all up. Okay, well, you've just disproven my slight theory I had in the back of my head that Dilawar Jones might be my cat.
Starting point is 01:39:02 No, no. So they're not the same person. They're separate. No, no, no. Right, okay. So we can clear that up. Wow, that's something we have in common. So they're not the same person. No, no, no. Right, okay. So we can clear that up. Wow, that's something we have in common. We live very closely to one-year-olds, both of us.
Starting point is 01:39:10 Yeah. Right, okay. I wonder what Crunchy's opinion on Lost in Translation is. What if she thinks it's absolutely fine? Probably. Thanks, Sabrina. Thanks, Sabrina. Thank you to Patreon subscriber Steven Woods
Starting point is 01:39:26 Big Woody We have Woods Finally As a Patreon subscriber And this is only name number three Who knows how many of these we're going to do But I'll say this much, we're not out of the woods yet Oh nice

Starting point is 01:39:59 That's a shame you've said that because our next subscriber is Anal Woods. So you could have used that on the next one. Fuck, what a waste. Yeah. You're going to have to think up something new that's funny about anal. Stephen Woods. Same name as, obviously, Tiger Woods.
Starting point is 01:40:19 Not the same name. Same surname. Okay. I guess that's right, in a way. Stephen Woods. It's like his mild-mannered brother. It's his alter ego. Ah, is this his Clark Kent?
Starting point is 01:40:33 Yes. That doesn't have his back window smashed by a golf wood after he went to Cocktail Waitress. Exactly. This is the golfer that was a nice boy the whole time. That's still winning majors Yeah That's not
Starting point is 01:40:46 Balls deep In some stripper In New Jersey We could get sued for this Could we? Anyway You ship station So
Starting point is 01:40:57 Yeah Thanks Stephen Woods Thanks Stephen Woods I'm sure you've copped it all before With the woods But Happy to Hey Happy to Happy to give it out again. Thank you to Patreon subscriber Brett Vaughn.
Starting point is 01:41:13 Vaughny. What do you think about Vaughn? Like that name, recognise it from the socials. Do you? I do. It's unrecognisable to me. Never heard of it. I do like the spelling V-A-U-G-H-N
Starting point is 01:41:27 That would be a thing where You know when you're a kid And you have to learn your own name All of a sudden You've got to learn something Fucking a little bit difficult You know Do you like
Starting point is 01:41:34 Do you have to learn your own name though? I don't remember I don't remember consciously Being sat down And that being a day In the Allsop household Listen son You're going to be asked time and time again
Starting point is 01:41:47 for this marker that we've given you. So now's the day where we're going to teach you what your name is. I reckon… It's just instinctive, right? Is it? Like it's basically if you're spelling stuff and you're writing stuff, the number one thing, everyone's pretty up in their own head. The first thing anyone writes is their own name, surely.
Starting point is 01:42:05 Because you've got to learn that pretty quick, I would have thought. You're writing down your own name before you're writing down pretty much anything else, surely. Yeah, you're just getting blank pieces of paper and writing your name on them. Who knows what for? Getting ready for Czech practice. All that sort of stuff. Yeah, that's the first thing you're writing down So he's gonna Basically the second word he's gotta learn how to spell
Starting point is 01:42:29 As a Dilwick Jones-esque infant Is Vaughn Which is fuck What a stumbling block There's a lot of shit in there Like grown adults would struggle with Vaughn Do you think that there's any chance that this gentleman is in the band The Vaughns Who did the song Who Farted?
Starting point is 01:42:47 Was that a band? From the Dumb and Dumber soundtrack. Yeah. Was that the name of it? Yeah, The Vaughans. Yeah, I feel like Red Dead should know that. I remember it because, do you remember when, back when there'd be a big song from the soundtrack of a movie, and when you'd get the movie on VHS, they'd just whack the video clip at the start of the film.
Starting point is 01:43:05 Oh, yeah. Right. Yeah. So many a time I rented Dumb and Dumber from the video shop and had to fast forward through the video clip for Who Farted. It's one of those video clips where they've just taken just a few random bits from the movie, stuck them together for three minutes. Bob's your uncle. There's a music video. Do they do that anymore?
Starting point is 01:43:23 I don't know. Yeah. Because there's not's Your Uncle. There's a music video. Do they do that anymore? I don't know. Yeah, because there's not really the thing. Is that the thing of like a big pop song from a movie when it comes out? There's not really, is there? I mean, they did that album for Black Panther where Kendrick Lamar made a bunch of songs, but none of them are in the movie.
Starting point is 01:43:38 I don't think they did video clips. Right. Yeah, because the old tradition of a bunch of scenes or sketches from the movie and then every 20 seconds just cut to the band in a studio playing for a couple of seconds and then let's get back to see what Keanu's doing on the big screen. Yeah, let's get back to that big car that looks like a dog. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:57 Bring that back. Bring it back. Yeah, yeah. I'd like to see people just start making them for songs that didn't have them originally. Yeah, I'd like to see people just start making them for songs that didn't have them originally. Yeah, just see how much trouble you could get into just make your own film clip to your song. Whack some old footage in there and pretend.
Starting point is 01:44:13 Even if it's an old film, just put a new band now, make your film clip, film all your bits in a studio where you're playing every now and then and then just intersperse it with clips from The Towering Inferno from 1977. Someone do a cover of Turning Japanese and then just splice in Lost in Translation over the top of it. Yeah, just whack and pretend that your song is the soundtrack to a really old movie.
Starting point is 01:44:40 Just put it out there. Now, if you were a band now now That would be a great concept album All songs that you wrote That got rejected from major motion pictures Yeah Yeah that's good And then all the little video clips Are just like yeah
Starting point is 01:44:52 Yeah Just a big bunch of songs And you know like For example that Say it's like The band is Tommy and Carl So it's like You know song
Starting point is 01:45:01 Turning Japanese Tommy and Carl In brackets Theme 2 Lost in translation. Yes, yes. Just a lot of songs are the themes to movies that are completely unofficial. It was always a big thrill, though, when they, you know, sometimes they would manage to get the people who were in the film
Starting point is 01:45:15 to actually film a unique film clip for the song. So there's that great, there's a Madonna song in Austin Powers, The Spy Who Shagged Me, and it's Austin Powers driving around with Madonna. And Madonna's just trying to fuck Austin Powers. Oh, no, not Bora. And Ali G. Yeah, but that's another one that she's in. Oh, is it?
Starting point is 01:45:34 No, sorry. That's one of her songs that she got Ali G to be in. Right. And same thing. She's just trying to fuck Ali G. Right, right, right. This period of Madonna where she's just trying to constantly root comedy characters. Bring that back as well.
Starting point is 01:45:52 I remember that clip that she did when she was trying to fuck Muttley from Wacky Races in that film clip. That was great. Reboot that. Reboot Madonna Who would it be now Just Madonna Taylor Swift Taylor Swift trying to
Starting point is 01:46:09 Trying to root No no no It's still Madonna Oh it's still Madonna It's still Madonna trying to fuck like I don't know The dad from Modern Family or something Yeah
Starting point is 01:46:16 Yeah Who's But what are comedy movies these days What's the What's the latest What was the last big comedy character Yeah Fuck
Starting point is 01:46:23 I'm trying to think of who's Is there a big Big broad character There hasn't been a big Big catchphrase machine What was the last big comedy character? Fuck. I'm trying to think of who's... Is there a big, broad character? There hasn't been a big catchphrase machine for a little while, has there? Yeah, because I want to reboot Madonna and then reboot the comedy character. So I want Taylor Swift to root... I don't know, who... It'd just be some fucking famous YouTuber or something.
Starting point is 01:46:41 That's where catchphrase comedy's gone. Would it be Taylor Swift trying to root The Rock from Jumanji reboot? Is that it? I don't know. Classic comedy character, The Rock. Well, I don't know. He's the closest that there is at the moment, isn't he? Probably fucking Madea.

Starting point is 01:47:37 Also, my cat is trying to chew our microphone cord. It's trying to chew through the power cable, which would be interesting to see how that pans out for us. For both parties. Okay, all right, one more time. Thank you to Patreon subscriber. Oh, okay, this is an interesting one. Well, you know what?
Starting point is 01:47:59 This is actually a little bit cheeky, but anyway. It's cheeky this week, is it? This is the cheekiest subscriber we've had yet. Thank you to the Patreon subscriber titled CoComedy. Now, this is not one person. This is a very cheeky attempt at getting sponsorship for the, of course, the Thailand island of CoComedy. Right, so you've of Koh Komadi.
Starting point is 01:48:26 Right, so you've got Koh Samui. Koh Penang. Koh Penang. Koh Komadi. Koh Komadi, right. And where's that located in relation to Koh Samui? Because I haven't been to Thailand enough to know. Yeah, it's not too far away. 69 kilometres off the eastern seaboard?
Starting point is 01:48:39 I wouldn't have said eastern. I think it might be off the west, so you're wrong there. Sorry. Again, I don't know yeah yeah yeah so i haven't i haven't actually been there i haven't actually this is this ironically enough the one island of thailand that you haven't been to has comedy in the title i just never i just looked at it and never rang my bell before i just well i guess it's like instinctively to you like that's work you know comedy's work so you're not like gonna go on a
Starting point is 01:49:02 holiday to like oh god when i'm going to Thailand, I'm getting away from comedy. Yeah, like other people aren't going, oh, I'll go to Accounting Island. That sounds fun. Yeah. I think, so what comedy, I guess, they're trying to get a mention on here, with a very cheap subscription, to be honest. So this could be the cheapest tourism campaign. Oh, how much do they pay?
Starting point is 01:49:19 Well, it's only $69, it says here. $69, right. Off the top of your head, what's that in baht? That's about What 71 Morning About 180 180
Starting point is 01:49:31 180 180 170 It's amazing to me And I know you do go there a lot But your capacity To still remember The exchange rate
Starting point is 01:49:37 Like any Anytime I'm somewhere If I'm there for Even like two weeks And it becomes so instinctive By the time I leave Within a day Of getting back The conversion rate has just gone out of my head. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:49:49 I know the history of the conversion rate over the last six years that I've been going there. I definitely know it. Right. So this is a very cheap advertising tourism campaign for them. Well, I guess, you know, like we're saying, everything's a bit cheaper over there. They don't have the money to be splurging or whatever. So this is – they thought – they obviously got a bit annoyed that we didn't go on the – we haven't planned a trip to Co Comedy as part of
Starting point is 01:50:13 their roadshow. Well, I mean, you know, in this country we had that dumbass advertising campaign as part of the Super Bowl. They would have spent millions on it getting Hemsworth and getting Danny McBride to do that fake Dundee reboot trailer. Yeah. We should have just, Australia should have just sponsored an episode of Marc Maron instead.
Starting point is 01:50:30 Yeah, that's not bad. And instead, this is, CoComedy's decided to sponsor this, just by a subscription and it turns into a sponsorship in a way. And instead of, you know, like the Australian ad campaign that had, where the bloody hell are you? It was like, hey, you dumb cunts, why aren't you coming here? Yeah, well, okay, well, let's look into it. I'd be happy to unwind.
Starting point is 01:50:49 Have we got any information about the island, like the, you know, things to do on there, like population or anything like that? You'd think we would, but we don't have a heap of it here. You seem caught off guard by that question. Well, I can only give you what they've supplied me. Okay, sorry. You know, it's just that I've just got what's in front of me. I don't have the whole history.
Starting point is 01:51:11 What a lucky out to get to have every week. I mean, sure, I had a lot of information on other stuff that we've talked about during this episode. But for some reason, Google's down at the moment. Google's down at the moment. Wow. This is huge. It's interesting, isn't it? But it's not too far away.
Starting point is 01:51:25 Boy, it's a funny old life. Maybe we can zoot off there for a day. I mean, it's obviously the funniest of all the islands. Well, again, STA travel, if you're thinking of travelling to Co Comedy, hit them up. See what they have to say. Totally. I want to go to Co Comedy.
Starting point is 01:51:41 Can you help me? Yes, totally. See what the good work at STA have to say apart from stop wasting my time. They're known for their good customer service, so put that to the test and see what they reckon. Just say you're staying in Samui and you want to riff off over to CoComedy. See how that goes. No, actually, I do remember one part of it now.
Starting point is 01:52:03 Oh, wow. The memory's fired up. I know. You can remember things. That's how the brain works sometimes. Is Google back up or not? No, it's not back up. It's still down.
Starting point is 01:52:12 Yeah, it's just what I know. You looked something up just before it crashed. It just reminded me of something. Yes. Yeah. I mean, you know how Australia has the Great Barrier Reef? It has the Great Barrier Reef. So maybe that's something that you can go and see when you go to Co-Comedy.
