Hey, mates.
Welcome once again into the Little D-dum club for another week.
Fuck!
Thank you very much for joining us.
My name is Tommy Dasolo.
I'm so tired.
With me, as always, the other half of the program.
Exhausted.
Ronnie Chang.
No, no.
That's me, Carl Chandler.
Fuck you.
Say the catchphrase.
Man, man.
And welcome in this rotten Ronnie Chang and this is Nazeem Hussain
You're trying to kill yourself
On this chair Tommy
I know
I know
Can we talk about
What Tommy looks like right now
One word
What word would you
One word
I got a couple
You look like
One word
And then you can elaborate from there
You look like a hipster fisherman
So just hipster
You look like Someone remade Home Alone
and you're the 2019 version of the Wet Bandits.
Oh, right, but just merged together as one guy.
You look like you work at the Apple Store.
No, no, he looks like he's...
No, he looks like Steve Jobs because he looks like he has cancer.
For people at home, Tommy has new glasses.
Yep.
How do you describe the glasses? When I say new glasses, has new glasses. Yep. How do you describe the glasses?
I mean, when I say new glasses, you have glasses.
Yeah.
So you now wear glasses all year round, right?
Yeah, I guess.
I mean, I haven't done a full year in them yet.
Right, right, right.
Maybe I'll lose them in a week.
That's the plan.
That's the plan.
Yeah, yeah.
The plan is to do 52 weeks and then I'm going to chuck them into the ocean.
It's like dry July.
It's like I can't see 2019.
Yeah, exactly.
Are you short-sighted?
I have astigmatism.
That's why it's weird on the edges.
Yes, I think.
I don't know what it means.
Isn't it something where like it's just going to get worse in your life, right?
It's a weird shape or something.
I think that's what it means.
I checked out.
She started explaining it and I was like, I don't care.
Just give me the prescription.
Right.
Just give me them glasses.
You gave up on your body
at this point
you're like
yeah exactly
right another way
which is falling apart
yeah yeah yeah
just give me the
give me the solution
and I'll just use it
right
in this case it was
these clear glasses
is that right
yeah
but the glasses are whatever
but I'm talking more about
this double knit
you have going on
of knit
beanie and
beanie and then knit
yeah
jumper I'm starting to see the fisherman element of it I've just never seen a fisherman with clear knit you have going on of knit, beanie, hobo jumper thing. Yeah, jumper.
I'm starting to see
the fisherman element of it.
I've just never seen
a fisherman with clear.
And a fisherman
with an Apple watch as well.
Yeah,
yeah.
So is that where
the Apple store thing
comes from?
No.
The fact that I'm wearing
one of the products?
No,
no,
I didn't even see
the Apple watch.
Honestly,
you just look like someone.
It's the cool
cutting edge tech vibe
that gives you that impression.
No,
it's not that.
It's this fucking
try hard hipster look.
Now, what do they call it? Do you just call it clear frames? Is that what you call it. No, it's not that. It's this fucking try-hard hipster look. Now, what do they call it?
Do you just call it
clear frames?
Is that what you call it?
I guess, yeah.
Right.
Yeah, that's the style.
That's what you call it.
Why'd you go that
and not the traditional
not clear,
like the opaque?
I don't know.
Just like them.
Why do you have
every physical element
of a 60-year-old man?
Why do I have
the physical element?
Well, the next move
is going and getting my hearing checked.
I think I've,
I think I'm actually in need of a hearing aid.
You clean your ears though.
I feel like you are.
You're going to get a clear hearing aid as well.
Hearing aids,
hearing aids sound fucking sick now.
Someone was telling me they're like,
they're Bluetooth.
So you can just use it as a headphone.
You just,
you can just use the hearing a headphone. You just get into the AirPods and just use the hearing aid.
And you can actually...
And you can pipe your music in.
People cheat on exams with hearing aids,
because you can basically have an audio...
Take calls on them and stuff.
Well, like a 12-year-old has a hearing aid,
and just going, yeah, cool, I have a hearing aid.
Yeah, you basically can play whatever you like.
You can be in a conversation with someone.
It's like Bluetooth.
That deaf child is a genius.
He hates all his tests.
No, some kids have hearing aids.
Do they really?
Yeah, yeah.
It's called
an incocular implant.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not common though, is it?
It can't be common.
It's not uncommon.
But there are people in the world
that are kids that are deaf.
It sounds hard to believe.
You think there are
no deaf kids in the world?
I don't think so.
What about if a bomb
exploded next to a kid?
I've never met one.
I've never met one. I've never met one.
No.
I'll believe it when I see it.
I'll believe it when I see it and they don't hear it.
They don't hear it.
Tommy won't be able to believe it because he can't see it.
I won't be able to see it.
Is it because you masturbate too much?
Yeah.
We are the masturbatorium.
Because when Carl asked me to come tonight, I go, where is it?
And he said, it's at Tommy's Masturbatorium.
It's been given a bit of a nickname over the last couple of months,
so that's what we've been referring to.
Why, you don't have a girlfriend or what happened?
Are you single?
Yeah, I'm single.
Are these glass, what do you call them?
They're not.
Window.
Are they supposed to be coloured like as in clear?
Yeah, yeah, no, they're clear and now they're cloudy because of all the car.
Yes.
If that's what you're asking, yes. I'll try as in clear. Yeah, yeah, no, they're clear and now they're cloudy because of all the calm. Yes. If that's what you're asking, yes.
I'll try to get there.
That drum set isn't even,
that's made out of sperm as well.
We didn't buy that.
But Nazeem, you first time in here, right?
This is my second time in here.
Is this my first or second time in here?
No, you've been here before.
You came here like the day after I moved in
and I had like no furniture.
This place looked like shit when I first came here.
Yeah, and looking at Tommy's face,
you would think that this place looks like...
It's not his. Yeah, it doesn't match's face, you would think that this place looks like... It's not his.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It doesn't match.
This place is way nicer
than his face.
Absolutely.
Is that...
His face doesn't match.
Is that how interviews work
in New York?
Yeah.
You walk in,
they go,
your face doesn't fit
this apartment.
Come on, man.
You're talking like
you don't agree
that this apartment
is way too nice
for Tommy Dazzler?
I think this is a nice apartment.
This is a fucking nice apartment, man.
Yeah, it's a nice one.
Yeah. And it's a very good location.
Yeah, I don't understand.
Right across from the MCG.
Don't give out the address.
This is an obsession of yours.
It's a massive street.
Every time.
In fact, even if I give out the number of the building,
there's still how many apartments in there?
I am pretty secure.
Like, you can't get through the, you know,
the wiper and everything.
Don't say the number.
They know it's in the hundreds and the sixties.
It's Jollymon Station.
I sleep in the bin at Jollymon Station.
That would suit your face.
It's a nice bin.
Thank you.
If what you wore was a little dirtier,
you would look homeless.
Right.
Because it's a homeless look.
But to be fair, it's also your face that also looks homeless.
It is a cool homeless look.
It is like a nice upmarket
homeless look
you know what he's
doing to his beard
that's kind of like
you know he's lining
up your trimming
number one right
firstly and then
you're also lining up
like you're shaving
above the beard
oh I'm trying to
yeah yeah yeah
I've done a bit of
sculpting
but that's good
I just did that
just before
yeah you can do
you do that too
but this is a new
look for you man
this is like
that's why I was so wild
when I first saw you.
I was like,
you look at the Apple store.
Well, I mean,
the glasses are a new look,
but everything else is just,
I'm wearing a jumper and a beanie
because it's cold.
Also the sculpting of your facial hair
and everything.
Why do you think homeless people
work at the Apple store?
Isn't this a thin line
between being hipster and homeless?
It's just like a very thin line
of like cleanliness.
Skipping up.
Yeah, yeah.
Or reliance on something.
The running joke is that Tommy relies on his mum or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Homeless people rely on society's generosity.
Right, right, right.
So for this concept to work,
he'd have to be begging out the front of a train station
and his mum walks past every last time to chuck in a couple of hundreds.
Yeah, that's what I do.
I sit out the front of my mum's house with the ukulele and a little upside down hat.
Just in the suburbs in like a cul-de-sac begging outside of her house.
What's the process for you to get your mum's money?
Do you ask?
Do you send an email?
A text?
I don't get my mum's money anymore.
This apartment doesn't match your home.
This is how well the podcast, for people at home,
this is how well the podcast is going.
Tommy no longer gets money off his mum.
It's still a line in the sand under that one.
The last time you got money from your mum,
how did you get it from her?
Oh, do you get cash or transfer?
When was the last time I borrowed money from my parents?
I don't know.
It would have been...
It legitimately was a very long time ago.
But it would have been just a bank transfer,
me going, I'm going to borrow some money.
We've all been there.
Is your mum...
I can't remember that ever happening in my life.
She's au fait with bank transfers and stuff like that, like online.
Yeah.
My parents know how to use a bank.
Online, though.
That's cool.
Online.
Yeah, I guess so.
Yeah, she would have been.
Were you awksed?
Did you feel a bit weird asking her for money?
Oh, of course.
So did you think about how you drafted the text?
Did she call you straight after you text?
Oh, no.
That's an in-person conversation.
Was there an emergency?
What happened?
Do you give reasons for it?
This was, again, this was ages ago.
Do you just say it's happened again?
I've done a whoopsie.
I've become my face.
I've done a whoopsie
in my bank account.
Fuck.
Alright, alright.
She's like your Patreon
she was
she was pre-Patreon
she paved the way
for Patreon
except she didn't
get any benefits
out of it
no I drew a little
magazine every month
oh yeah
that's cool
that's cool
you stopped calling her
that was the benefit
yeah
get this guy off my ass
yeah yeah
well anyway
Ronnie's dressed like
the Unabomber or something.
It's pretty rich for Ronnie to do.
Ronnie's been masturbating in some bushes down the park.
He's about to shoot up a high school.
I'm just wearing a dress code.
You know what happened?
I went to my wife's nephew's three-year-old birthday party.

Can I just say one thing on that, by the way?
Please.
Carl has never come to any of my shows, ever, and he's in the same city.
For good reason.
I've come and done his rooms.
I book you at my rooms, and I see that every time.
Yeah, why don't you come to your show?
He's helped me with jokes as well, and he doesn't come and see the,
and I don't want to ask him because that's awkward.
Just like he didn't invite me to his wedding, you can't ask him.
Have you ever thought about going to his show? Why would he go to your show... And I don't want to ask him because it's awkward. Just like he didn't invite me to his wedding. You can't ask him. Have you ever thought
about going to a show?
Why would he go to your show?
I really don't know.
In your crowd,
he's the enemy.
Nah, man.
I would make him part of it.
I would make him part of it.
Well, I'll come.
I'll be front row.
I'll be front row next time.
So you're going to come
to my show next year?
Yeah, I'll come.
But I see all your stuff
when you come and do my rooms.
You know what's different, man.
You know what's different.
Okay.
Is it different?
I don't know.
How is it different? Yeah. I'm working during the Comic Fest. Well, you'll know if you come. do my rooms you know what's different is it different I don't know how is it different
I'm working
during the comic fest
you'll know if you come
I don't expect anything
from you Tommy
you'll have to ask
your mum for a fucking
I've sent my parents
to see you
so in a way
you've gotten money
off my parents
you fucking scab
I don't even need
to message
why did you send
your parents
to go watch him
because I thought
they'd enjoy it
you're as bad as him
now you're getting
money off his parents as well.
I just said that.
But have you sent your parents to see Ronnie's show or Carl's show?
They've been to see Carl a couple of times.
Yeah, way back in the day.
It's not really their speed.
I don't expect them to enjoy me doing jokes
and someone screaming at me off the side of the stage.
It's not my demo.
Yeah.
Thank you, Mum.
I will.
We went and saw Ronnie
and then we organised,
we saw your lovely wife
out the front
and you had her selling socks
out the front of your show.
So we talked to her
and then she said
you were going to go
and have a bit of an after party
at a bar.
I know you're getting to this thing
but also I just want to say I was just with my wife and she said you had a very nice conversation. Yeah, she said you were going to go and have a bit of an after party at a bar. I know you're getting to this thing but also I just want to say
I was just with my wife
and she said
you had a very nice conversation.
Yeah, she said that.
Very off-brand conversation.
You said very nice things about me.
No, no, no.
I enjoy talking to your wife
because she's like
your carer
or whatever the fuck situation it is
because she's like super lovely
and you're insane.
So it's like nice to...
What do you mean?
I'm insane
and you're talking like
all four people in this room
aren't fucking crazy.
We're all crazy. That's why it's so weird when people are mean I'm insane you're talking like all four people in this room aren't fucking crazy we're all crazy
that's why it's so weird
when people are
sincerely nice
we get like weird
like what are you doing
I actually don't know
how to take compliments
yeah
I don't know how to
take kindness anymore
well that's why
I don't turn up
I wouldn't mind
a bit of that
at this company
I'd settle for it
it's a nice apartment Tommy
thanks Carl
I can see through
your glasses perfectly
as well.
Thanks, man.
That's the point.
Tommy plays the roast perfectly.
He plays it perfectly.
We roast him and he just goes,
you know, he just talks about his problems.
You ask him how he asks money from his mom,
he just tells you.
Yeah, yeah.
He doesn't get defensive.
There's a certain friend of mine who gets paid a lot of money by me
who's going to have a pretty in-depth conversation
about this with me tomorrow, but anyway.
Is it a friend or is it an employee?
It's an employee.
Right.
Yeah.
Cool.
I don't know though, Ronnie, because Tommy goes back at people good.
Like he's good at this.
But there's something about you.
You're the kryptonite to his superman.
Really?
There's something about you that he doesn't defend himself.
It's like he's boxing.
He just puts his hands down.
I think with you, you know, like with with most people when friends give each other shit,
there's an element of like, well, I wouldn't say this about you
if I really thought it was true or if I didn't like you.
But you're one of those people where I'm like,
I think you might not actually like me.
Like quite genuinely, you leave me going,
I honestly don't know where I stand with this guy.
I don't know if it's coming from his insides.
Any specific incidents that has given you that impression.
The last 20 minutes.
Being called homeless repeatedly.
You apple hipster fuck.
That's what we do on this thing.
We give you that shit.
You were super nice, man.
You gave me a lift once.
That's true.
You gave me a lift when you were in the car.
That's so nice.
You told me about your car.
You were in the car.
We were talking about your show.
That show was the one on Vegem Mike or whatever the fuck it was about.
It was from Felix Bar Comedy.
Yeah.
He gave me a lift.
It was cool.
That's the other thing about you.
You have the most comprehensive memory of anyone I know.
The kind of bullshit details that you remember.
Your little filing cabinet of things that you have filed away at people.
What's the earliest memory you have of carl oh great question earliest memory of
carl was going to spleen of course and then um looking at spleen comedy on monday night
spleen comedy monday night you were running the open mic everyone said it was the mic to be at
it was in the big city where it was a a crowd that could be like real crowds, not just fucking weirdos.
This is like the big city crowds.
Anything can happen.
Meaning if they like you there, you can make it anywhere.
I remember thinking.
Trevor Noah's in the crowd.
He's the comedy seller of Australia.
Yeah, I remember seeing.
And you know the drill is you watch the whole show and then at the end you beg for a spot by sucking his dick.
Yeah.
I only ever enforce that once with Ronnie
so I'm a guy
who respects the process
so I waited
you know
I watched the whole show
I was there the whole show
and then at the end
I lined up with a bunch
of other desperate fucks
on their knees
on their knees
to suck this guy's dick.
On the set of Risky Business
and Tom Cruise was coming out or something.
And then I remember thinking,
man, this guy's face is a really weird shape.
It's like a moon face.
It's like a crescent.
It's a country Australian face that he's got.
Country Australian face for sure.
But this guy, a crescent is like a hat.
Thank you, soul of the earth.
It's not symmetrical, you're right.
Soul of the earth Yeah No one's ears
No the chin is
Coming
Comes out a bit
It's a crescent moon
Yeah yeah yeah
I feel like we're straying away
From the split
No but it is
Are you?
No no I'll allow it
It is crescent moon
He's got stubble
But it's
The stubble is like
In crevices
Yeah yeah
You can't
You know like
I don't know how he shaves
Cause there's
Yeah he has to
He has to like Stretch his skin out Yeah he has to I don't know how you shave How do you shave? You can't You know like I don't know how he shaves Cause there's Yeah he has to He has to like
Stretch his skin out
Yeah he has to
I don't know how he shaves
How do you shave?
You don't
You don't shave
There's angles going on
I do
I only have it at the moment
Yeah your face
It's very sharp
It's very sharp
There's like
Stuff sticking out
The chin
Angular
Yeah and so
That's my first thing
You just
You lined up to get a gig
And you thought
How does that guy shave?
Yeah yeah
I was like
Your face
How does your face
exist
because there's
weird angles
happening
that's how you
got on the list
at Splend so quickly
you gave him
a Gillette razor
oh did you
neg Carl
no no no
I don't remember
hey Carl
nice to meet you
whoa
what's wrong
with your face
as soon as he
got the gig

obviously I performed there eventually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think you were.
You were.
You.
Yeah.
You were in your booking mode.
Everyone's begging you for a spot.
I've heard.
I've heard like.
But you weren't rude.
You weren't.
It was just like.
Oh yeah.
Just do this.
You gave me some instructions.
Okay.
I'll just do that.
I just remember hearing about Carl before I ever met him.
Yeah.
From like other comedians.
And some like open Michael.
It's like he's dead.
You know.
But basically people are like. Oh man. Carl's really tough man he's a real he's a real
difficult guy if you can get if he can reply to your messages that's that's the start and stuff
yeah like you've got a you had a reputation and then I've actually told people who like oh you

come to Melbourne I'll hit you up again yeah hit me up I'll get you some spots at rooms if you
like I'll introduce you to I'll you know
introduce you to Carl

and then they start
describing you in ways
I've never seen before
yeah
they start asking you
how I shave and stuff
yeah

got that reputation
yeah
a bit of a harder
people have told me
that you've yelled

I mean everyone yells
but it depends if it's worth yelling at.
Yell at someone.
I've yelled at people before,
but not for good reasons.
Like people you work with.
Yeah, for good reason, for sure.
Because I've never worked at a job
where it's normal for, like,
a colleague to yell at another colleague.
Well, you've never done anything wrong,
so well done for not being yelled at.
Well done.
That means you're doing your job right.
Do you apologise?
Or is it not...
No, I don't think I've ever...
I hope I don't
Oh sorry
No if I yell at someone
They need to be yelled at
Well there's no HR in comedy
So you can get away with it
I hope I don't
Regret this statement
But
But
But I do feel that
Carl is quite
Is quite fair
He's quite fair
Exactly
He's harsh but fair
I'll take that
Hard but fair
I don't even think you're harsh
I just think you're pretty fair I don't think you're harsh. I just think you're pretty fair.
I don't think you're hard.
I don't think you're...
I've never seen you...
But he's kind of got that 90s firmness about him,
which now, I don't...
Like it doesn't really...
A real Gordon Gekko.
Yeah, like, you know, like...
Yeah, like, you know,
my mum used to smack me as a kid.
Right.
And, you know, growing up,
I don't know how you're supposed to discipline kids now.
You're not supposed to psychologically discipline...
Like, you...
Right, right, right.
I feel like your Way of managing staff
Or comedians
Yeah
Doesn't really suit the times
Sure
I disagree
This is what I think
I think
Do you think
Yes yelling at a comedian
I think it's
If it gets them to do
What they're supposed to be doing
And it makes them
But it depends on what it is
He went like
20 minutes
In a 10 minute spot
He comes to you
And you're like
Yo what are you doing
But not just
Yo what are you doing
Yo what are you Like yelling I've yo What are you doing Yo what are you
Like yelling
I've heard you
Screaming a yo
Is pretty great
I don't know if I've screamed
At anyone like that
You just said you yelled
How have you ever yelled
Would you have screamed at anyone
No
No
You just said you yelled
If someone comes in
If someone fucks up
And does way too long
Or says something really bad
And like makes people walk out
Or whatever
I go what the fuck are you doing
That's what I would do
Is that actually how you do it Yes So i've come off late man that was a good
gig sorry car thing i would have been over oh so if you've done role play if he goes on the front
if he goes on the front foot and apologizes first oh that was sick that crowd was red hot man that
was great man what the fuck were you doing that is you went fucking 20 minutes too long well it's
a five minute spot
there's no need to yell man shit get down and do what ronnie chang did 10 years ago and suck this
dick you know i'm still recording from the sense so this is all evidence now also you don't have
to yell we're on this podcast as well shit uh yeah i don't think that's yelling no that's all
right that's i'm pretty that's i with that Yeah I love how you're like
It doesn't suit the times
Like what am I
No I just
In my brain
I thought that
Like he closes the door
Or something
No
And it's just like
You fucking
You know
Dude
This is what I think
In comedy
This is
What I think
People think I'm hard
But maybe fair
In some regards
Because
Everyone in comedy
Is so fucked in the head
that
everyone's like
a man child
everyone's a baby
and so
everyone just does
whatever they want
and then I come in
from the real world
starting comedy
at age 30
and go
man what the fuck
are you doing
just do your job properly
what are you fucking doing
you're right
you're right
you started when you were 30
Jesus
how old are you now
he's like 50
are you 43 why do I talk are you now? He's like 50 Are you 43?
Yeah
Why don't I talk to you like
From our generation
Yeah he's way old man
You're not even
What are you?
Generation X right?
Yeah
Yeah he's old
I was in singles
How do you relate to half the things we talk about?
Yeah I don't know
When you say
Like when you were talking about Apple before
I was lost
Yeah
I don't know what that is
Are you a big fan of Tony Hawk? Yeah yeah yeah yeah totally okay he was a couple years under me
is there a part of you that regrets not having kids earlier in life back
in the era where you could just give him a good old fucking belting in the supermarket
because my kid would be good for you i don't reckon you'd be i reckon you'd be having those
kind of altercations with comedians if you had a 20-year-old son who you had just been beating the shit out of in public.
You can still do that in other countries, though, if you really want to.
He moves the family so that he can belt his kid.
You can even just go on holidays.
You can do sex tourism.
You can go on...
This is probably a bad conversation,
but if you really wanted to do stuff at other places...
No, no, no.
I've got comedians now to do it with
So it's fine
Yeah yeah yeah
I run an open mic
People fuck up
And then I just get to
That's my
That's my stress ball
Okay what's the worst
Kind of blow up you've had
At a comic
Man there was
A guy
I had
There's a guy
Man
And question
Why did you blow up
At Pablo Francisco
You just yell at all these
Other nice comedians
But you don't yell at the guy
Doing
Did you hear about this?
He did the eyes and everything
What?
I didn't hear about this
We had a guy
You know Pablo Francisco
He's on the podcast
He's done a lot of
My people's voice
He was doing you
He was doing Ronnie face
Right now I'm offending myself
Yeah
I didn't yell at him
Because his management
Got us to do it
And so I was being respectful
Of the management
True
I wanted to be nice to the management
You were sucking his dick basically
Yeah
And that wasn't a gig
That was a podcast
Like you're not gonna turn the mics off
And then go
What the fuck was that
No it's fair
It's fair enough
Exactly
Exactly
Did he do it in context
No
Nothing
He just brought it up
in the context of
this will be funny
me so sorry
no we were talking about
Hong Kong
and he was like
oh and everyone in the street
you see is like
John John John John
it's like
fucking
you guys really
testing the limits
of what does
accept the podcast
but we recorded it
and then we sat down
and had a fucking
hour breakdown
of like going
what the fuck
just happened
on the podcast
yeah yeah yeah
so you guys made it okay
yeah yeah yeah
it's funny because
I love how close
we get to cancelled
on this thing
like there's stuff
that happens on this thing
it's not even me talking
it's just me being
on a podcast
with him saying
some stuff
it's like enough
to get me in trouble
man so this is
you asked me
what's the worst
what's the worst blow up
so I think this is the worst blow up I've had there was a guy this is, you asked me, what's the worst blow up? So I think this is
the worst blow up I've had.
Okay.
There was a guy,
this is years and years ago, right?
Tommy Dazzler.
He didn't have cancer
and I yelled at him so much
that he got cancer.
I made up cancer
to get even more money
for my mum.
The ultimate con.
So there was a guy on
and he was,
this is like early days of Spleen.
So Spleen's Monday nights, it's a curated open mic night for people that don't know
that are at home.
And it's free.
Yeah, it's free to get in.
But, so it's like a mix of, you know, a lot of people have come up through, including
Ronnie and Nazeem, not so much.
That's where I started.
That's where I actually discovered comedy.
Nazeem just started playing Town Hall, Full House of Stride Wave.
No, no, we drove up.
It was his first gig.
But, you know, just plateauing.
I think his mum hired out Town Hall Wave it was his first gig I think his mum
hired out Town Hall
that was his first gig
it's nice when you
can just hit up
the local mosque
you've got a billion
fan base
take your shoes
off at the door
there was just
a lot of white guilt
and they just gave him
like 10,000 people
at his first gig
did you do your
first open mic
at the mosque
actually no
it was our community
I used to do this
thing on Muslim
camps called
Nazeem Live
remember Rove Live
Yeah yeah
Oh what
And so I'd be up there
Basically like
So there'd be like
Infotainment
And I'd be the info
And I'd be like
Doing the funny stories
About my family
This that
I thought you were
Going to be the info
And then I'd be like
Alright so
Please guys
Welcome to the stage
A psychologist
Who's going to talk to us
About mental health
And then I'd be
You know
So I'd be facilitating that
And then someone else Would talk to us about the Prophet Muhammad.
And then, you know, one time I was telling jokes about my mum.
Husey came on and lost it?
Yeah.
But that's how it started.
Kind of at the mosque.
Husey came on Salaam Cafe, which is a show that we did.
Your Channel 31 show.
One season on SBS.
He came on and he basically said,
Oh, yeah, I'll convert to Islam.
And on the show, we kind of converted him.
We gave him a Muslim name from David.
We called him Dawood.
He is, to be honest, he is the one that always, if he sees something, he wants that.
He doesn't want to miss out on anything.
So he doesn't want to miss out on being Muslim.
Because of that, he's like super well loved in the Muslim community.
People still remember that.
I've heard he's read the Quran. Has he? Yeah. Okay, I didn't know that. He's like super well loved in the Muslim community. Really? People still remember that. I've heard he's read the Quran.
Has he?
Yeah.
Okay, I didn't know that.
He's actually read it.
But he's not Muslim, which means he's come to different conclusions.
Well, I think he's come to an incorrect conclusion.
I think he's read it so he knows he can have arguments about it.
I think he's just done it so he can have arguments.
I believe that there's people who do that.
Yeah, yeah.
If you read a Quran, just say it when people are like,
you haven't read it.
And they can be like, yeah, I did.
Those are the worst people
because then it's like
well that's Huzi
I just want to tell
the Muslim community that
I love Huzi
he's the best
did you
did you
was Prophet Muhammad
hard to follow
you know people
some like real hardcore Muslims
are like
you're not brother
making jokes
yeah yeah yeah
but
did he not go as well
because you couldn't see his face on stage?
You need for that to happen then.
You better edit this bit out.
Can you get Jason Chatfield to draw,
live draw it as your...
Oh, who was it that did that?
I can't remember.
I remember I went to a gig once
with some Muslims and...
Oh, no, what's his name?
Rod Quantock.
He did this flipboard thing
and he kept...
And then it got to a picture
of the Prophet Muhammad
and we're in Brunswick in Cobra,
you know, Brunswick Green
and a couple of Muslims were like,
what the fuck?
And they walked out.
Wow.
Quantock.
It's a thing, mate.
Quantock.
Man.
That's like the
don't say her name
You can read the Quran,
you'll get it.
It's like the
don't say her name
of the Muslim world.
It's like the N word
of the Muslim world.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The prophet Mrs. Chandler.
So the guy, so spleen, right?
So this guy asked to be on.
This is the worst blow-up.
Guy asked to be on, and he's been around for years.
He's been around for years and years, this guy.
And he's like pretty shaky, pretty sketchy sort of character.
So he...
Say no more.
Yeah.
So he gets on, and this is only like a year or two into running spleen, so I'm like, oh, this guy's like a senior character. So he... Say no more. Yeah. So he gets on
and this is only
like a year or two
into Running Splendid
so I'm like,
oh, this guy's
like a senior character.
He's like, you know,
been doing it longer
than me.
Sure, like he's got
substance problems,
obviously.
This is not Greg Flake
by the way.
You're all thinking it.
You're all thinking it.
To be fair,
you just described
a lot of people.
And it's not Fiona O'Loughlin
because you said he.
No, no, no, no.
It's no one that...
No one's appeared
on the podcast
and no one that anyone knows.
And you'll get that towards the end of the story.
He turned up dressed like I am right now.
Yes.
Without the Apple Watch.
I think your Terminator style went back to like,
I think I know who this is.
So he came in, he did this gig and we're like, oh, okay.
Now this is like a year into Spleen or whatever
when you're getting like special guests coming in
and it's like
this is the first time
this has sort of
ever happened
and you're like
oh wow
this is really cool
that a big name
is dropping down
so Josh Thomas
dropped in
and like
it was the first time
he'd ever dropped in
and we're like
oh man
you know
he was like
height of popularity
what an awesome
thing to happen
so he was going to
go on
and this guy
was going on
just before him
so this guy
went on
and did all this
insanely homophobic material was drunk was going on just before him so this guy went on and did all this insanely homophobic material she was drunk was sloppy was just abusive sorry did he know josh was coming
yeah yeah oh he knew he just didn't think he just didn't think at all because he's an idiot
a serious question though yeah josh came out when like uh because it was certainly a fairly
recent thing from in my mind oh no no he was well and truly out for a long time by this point.
He was definitely out by that point because this was a thing where I was going,
what the fuck?
Because Josh was about to...
Then Josh had to go on and follow that after.
He had just this crazy guy just being homophobic and just insane
and clearly affected by substances and whatever.
I love your description before where you're like,
he's homophobic and also he's a bit
drunk as well
he's saying slurs
and he was slurring
the fucking gumption
of this guy
he can't even say that
yeah yeah yeah
he's slurring his slurs
so he did that
and then
Josh was on
and sort of had to go
oh god you know
that was a bit weird
and whatever
and it's like
you're going
oh fuck you want
Josh Thomas to come back
but he's like
all he's seen of the gig
is that
and then he's come on
after that and gone
well I won't fucking
come back to this gig again
this gig sucks
they just let whoever
on stage
anyway so then that guy
came back
like weeks later
or whatever
and also he
just rocked up
no no no
so before he was on
he hadn't turned up
a few times as well
just no show to the gig
like booked but not showed up.
Yeah, booked and then not showed up.
So he'd done all that, then had this horror gig,
and then he rocked up about a month later,
and it was just me and him in this room.
And he walks in and he goes,
yeah, yeah, I just want to come and get a gig.
And I was like, cunt, you will never be fucking getting a gig in this room
as long as I fucking run at you.
And just went in for about five minutes,
and this guy just like
was all like tough guy
but then he just took it.
He just absolutely took it
and didn't say a word.
Just like Tommy's been taken in today.
Exactly.
Yeah, like that.
So then he just took it
and I just went him crazily
about how much of a cunt he is
and how he'll never be on.
He's a fucking,
I would never put up with that
and it would show a bad example
to everyone else.
They could come on and be a shit cunt
and all this sort of stuff.
Anyway,
and he just sort of like whimpered and then sort of walked away and then he lost his mind and
like started going crazy about me and getting on facebook and like trying to abuse but like blocked
me on facebook but then was abusing me to everyone else and it's like okay cool like whatever anyway
that guy within a year or 18 months became homeless yeah and so now this guy is like still homeless
but he's got like so he's begging at the front of coals and stuff but he's still on facebook and
people still send screenshots of of it to me that are like him abusing me on facebook and it's like
still you've been homeless for like five years and i'm still your biggest problem oh my god
it's like i think i i think i pushed him into homelessness. That's it,
in his head,
that's exactly what's happened.
You're where all the troubles begin.
There's a moral dilemma here.
I don't know what it is yet.
But having said that,
he was like being homophobic
and he had substance abuse.
Okay,
imagine fast forward
and he was homeless
and he said homophobic stuff.
Would you have yelled at him like that?
If he was a homeless comedian
walking on stage and being homophobic.
Yes.
Fair enough.
Just because you don't have a house,
that's not a get out of town thing.
But if someone came up to me homeless
and said,
you Muslim,
curry munching fuck,
terrorist,
I'd just be like,
here's 20 cents.
But what if he walked into your house
and said that
that's not the analogy
though
that's not the analogy
this guy's not walking
this guy's walking
to a job
yeah
you're right
I'm just
sifting through
I think I know
who this guy is
there's not too many
homeless comedians
wait
does this guy also
sell drugs
as merch
yes okay yeah that's funny he used to sell are you serious he used to sell Wait, does this guy also sell drugs as merch? Yes.
Okay.
Yeah, that's funny.
Are you serious?
He used to sell mushrooms on stage.
He would say, if anyone wants to buy mushrooms,
and people would laugh, he'd go, seriously.
And then he would seriously say.
And he also had a taser on stage as well.
What?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where'd you get a taser?
I don't know.
Also, are you worried?
Through the underground homeless black market.
Here's updates about life underground homeless black market. His updates about
life being homeless
on Facebook,
it's like one of those
character accounts
that people do online.
He might be the next
Kyle Sandilands though.
No, he's not.
Because he started off homeless
and he had obnoxious views as well.
Yeah, but like bullshit homeless
I think.
A little bit.
This guy's full time homeless.
He doesn't go home at night. You can't be homeless and go home at night. Yeah, yeah little bit. This guy's full-time homeless. He doesn't go home at night.
You can't be homeless and go home at night.
Yeah, yeah.
Shit.
This guy's been on the street for like five years or something.
And I think initially he was like doing it and like sharing it online.
Going, check it out.
I'm pretending to be homeless.
And a week later it's like, I'm actually homeless.
Would you ever try and find him and reconcile with him on the street?
No, absolutely not.
He still hates me, I'm telling you. He's still on Facebook and reconcile with him on the street no absolutely not he still hates me
I'm telling you
he's still on Facebook
like blaming me
for everything
that's the point
of reconciliation
this guy is
homeless
he blames you
he's on drugs
and he has a taser
yeah yeah
I don't think
you want to be
in the same city
as this dude
yeah okay
you've got a feud
with a homeless guy
it's a one sided feud
I'm not
you know
I don't need to take it any further and here you are with a platform shitting on a homeless guy it's a one-sided feud I'm not you know I don't need to take it
any further
and here you are
with a platform
shitting on a homeless guy
talking about it publicly
he has no right of reply
I'm kind of on his side
apart from the homophobia
I'm trying to teach
my lesson here
is I'm teaching to people
that are listening at home
if you're homophobic
that can lead
you deserve to live
on the street
yeah
homophobia can lead
to homophobia you are literally homophobic That can lead You deserve to live on the street Yeah Homophobia can lead to Yeah yeah yeah
You are literally
Homophobic
Yeah
You have a phobia against homes
Yeah
That is the button on that story
Let's move on
So we went to
Ronnie's after party
last night
we went there
and he got us to go
to like a
it's like a what
a video games themed bar
yeah shout out
Bartronica
yeah yeah right
easy place to go
you know no cover charge
usually it's relatively
empty and quiet
fuck it was full last night
and I've never been
in such a nerd themed
bar in my life
it was insane
are you gonna finish
the story
because yeah yeah what happens at the end yeah yeah we'll talk about it it's fine yeah And I've never been in such a nerd-themed bar in my life. It was insane. Are you going to finish the story?
Because what happens at the end?
Yeah, yeah, we'll talk about it.
It's fine.
You say you've never been in such a nerd-themed bar.
You've been in bars where we've done shows.
So you've seen many of those same people.
No, no, no. This is a different level.
This is a different level.
I've never seen so many ponytails.
It's fucking crazy.
And people dressed like you in the trench coat.
And a guy in a full spider-man outfit
was there a spider-man
outfit
yeah
there was a guy with a
full on what do you
call that like mohawk
yeah but that's cool
in comparison to the
fucking
you saw all this last
night and you're still
commenting on my
appearance 24 hours
later
no but here's the thing
we were in a fucking
arcade bar
you're in your house
yeah exactly
I'm comfort
this is leisure wear.
Are you going to join the world's most deadliest catch?
World's most deadliest what?
Deadliest catch.
I don't know.
He looks like he's going to set some traps to catch some crabs or something.
He's a nice trucker.
He's a nice trucker.
That's who he is.
Yeah, this bar tronic I got last night looked like an episode of Stranger Things for sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Look, I was there last night looked like an episode of Stranger Things for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was there and I was like,
Santa Ronnie, thanks for fucking, you know,
thanks for hiring me as an extra on the set of fucking Big Bang Theory.
It looked like that.
It was fucking insane.
But what's the funniest thing is...
So then we're sitting in the booth.
Yeah.
We're in a booth and we finally...
You're shitting on this place.
You keep shitting on how these people are fucking nerds.
Yeah, yeah.
This place sucks.
And I started filming.
There were people talking to you
and I'm really slyly getting my phone out.
And I'm filming all the exchanges
and going, fuck, and I'll check this out.
And I'm filming it.
And as I'm filming it,
we're sort of going,
fucking check all these nerds out.
What the fuck is going on here?
And then Milan is there.
And Milan's like,
oh yeah, do you want a drink or whatever?
And the guy goes, yeah, sure, Milan.
And he goes, what? How do you know my name or whatever and the guy goes yeah sure Milan and he goes what
how do you know
my name
and he goes
because I listen
to that guy's podcast
and I'm like
fuck
and he starts
hysterically
crying laughing
I laugh for a good
five minutes
are you unaware
that your listeners
are nerds too
like a large
segment of them
are people I would
characterize as nerds
this is different level
slash dorks
this is like what we would say back in Maribor.
When I lived in Maribor, there was a second half of the bar.
The main bar was called the Bull and Mouth Hotel, right?
So there was a main bar where everyone went,
and then there was this side bar where all the absolute freaks of Maribor were.
Where everyone called it the Star Wars bar
because it looked like that scene in Star Wars
where you just walked in there and went,
there's a lot of different species going on in there.
That's what it looked like.
Why do you hate them? They're the friendliest people on Earth.
First of all, this fucking guy talks like he's some kind of jock.
You're the nerd of Maribyrnals.
You have a podcast, mate.
You're Maribyrnals nerd.
You look at CCTV fucking cameras in another country.
That's how people in Maribyrnals look at you.
You go to Thailand not for the sex tourism.
You're a fucking nerd nerd you're a country nerd
country nerd
okay
probably the worst type of nerd
oh man
I played soccer in Mirabar
of course
I was like
yelled at people
I had long hair
I was like
all the fucking bogans
would yell at me for sure
you're trying to rebel
against your past
is what's going on
yeah
you're faced with
what you were
and you're
angry about it
you're just fucking nerds you gotta resolve that man about it. Yeah, he's fucking nerds.
You gotta resolve that, man.
No, it was fine though
because those guys were nice.
Those people who were listening.
They were super nice.
Yeah, they were nice.
And you shouted for five minutes.
Took us a while to get to that.
You shouted for so long
before they came over
and said hi.
I didn't shit on them specifically.
Oh, you were shitting on them.
It was the fucking people
dressed as Aquaman
that were walking by.
By the way,
you, Milan and Nick Capper sitting in that bar,
I said, you guys look like you're here to collect money.
You guys did not fit in in that bar at all.
We were the most...
It's the first time we've ever been the most alpha people in the bar.
You were not the most alpha.
You were not cool at all.
You just looked like a bunch of criminals.
We still...
That is still better than the guys who are dressed as the Smurfs
standing in the bar or whatever.
I know, that's pretty funny.
I said, why don't you go to the fucking Melbourne Backpackers where you belong then?
What's your bar?
What's your city bar?
Splain Comedy where I get to yell at whoever I want.
X-Food.
You're probably an X-Food hotel guy.
So you know what happened?
So we left there.
So then you guys left and we hung out and talked to those guys.

And we're like, really?
And he goes, man, I took a photo of him.
I'll show you right now.
And I go, cool.
And he gets the photo out.
And here is the photo.
Absolutely not Will Ferrell.
What the hell?
What the fuck?
Oh, my God.
Closer.
Oh, my God. Closer. Oh my God.
So some guy...
You've got to put that
on our page.
I'll put it up
on social media.
Can we make that
just for a week?
Can we make that
our profile picture
across on our account
across the board?
We've got to find this guy.
We've got gotta find him
and get him
but he kinda
has some resemblance
in some ways
this guy is the
best comedian
in the world
yeah
you gotta get him
on as
get him on a
spleen
as Will Ferrell
and then I'll yell
at him because
I find it's not
Will Ferrell
yeah
man yeah
so we're just
me and Cabra
like laughing
but going wow it's it's one of the it's one Will Ferrell. Man, yeah. So we're just... Me and Cabra are like laughing but going,
wow, it's one of the stepbrothers.
He was in your cab.
And I'm like,
the anchorman himself.
You got him in your cab.
So you don't break this guy's heart.
Absolutely not.
You can't.
You can't.
It's like telling him Santa Claus is in the room.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
And also, I want him to...
And he woke his wife up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I want him to give this beautiful gift
to other passengers. Sure, sure. But what I want him to give this beautiful gift to other passengers.
Sure, sure.
But what I want to know now is,
I'm obsessed now with trying to find this guy
because it would be great to know,
was he a guy from Melbourne?
You know what I mean?
Was it a guy with an Australian accent?
Yeah, you're right.
Because that does change it.
If this guy gets into new speaking and an Australian accent
and this guy going like, wow, he must be...
Unless you just put her on.
He must be preparing for a role or something.
Because this guy, this taxi driver, had no idea who he was anyway.
He only knows...
He didn't even know the name.
He just only knew...
That's so funny.
Because for him to get that story to him,
this guy who's pretending to be Will Ferrell,
who looks like 10% like Will Ferrell,
has walked in and gone,
I'm world famous comedian Will Ferrell
that smile looks like
he knows that
this photo
is going to be shown to him
he's pissing himself
as he's getting his photo taken
but do you think that's happened
or do you think this guy
has just gone
oh this is that famous guy
I don't want to embarrass him
I'll just chat to him
no this guy had no idea
who he is
like I said
I asked his name
I asked what he's been in
he goes I have no idea
about any of this stuff
fuck
but I just got told
that I
no but also he's probably watched movies with him in I have no idea about any of this stuff. Fuck. But I just got told that it was like...
No, but also,
he's probably watched movies with him in it
and gone,
oh yeah, that's a funny guy.
No, he knew nothing.
He literally is just parroting the information
that has been given to him by fake Will Ferrell.
We have to find this guy.
So then we're like pissing ourselves in the back,
but like,
okay.
And he's like,
what are you laughing about?
Oh, just remembering our favourite Will Ferrell moments.
No, no,
just remembering Ronnie Chang's jokes
you know Ronnie Chang
oh yeah
I drove him around too
yeah yeah
he's a 70 year old
Korean man
I drive him around
every day
he's always
honestly
so this is the thing
I'm in the back
and so we're making
our jokes like going
oh yeah yeah
it's the stepbrother himself
oh it's Anchorman
you've got Anchorman
in the front
and I'm like sitting there
going fuck who can we pretend we are we're in the back who Anchorman in the front and I'm like sitting there going fuck who can we
pretend we are
we're in the back
who can we pretend
we are
and I'm like
the lookalike I get
if I get one
is like Adam Gilchrist
the cricketer
Australian cricketer
so I think
okay I've got that
and then the taxi driver
goes you know the only
other famous person
I've had in my cab
Adam Gilchrist
no way
so then I couldn't do it.
I should have asked him
for a photo.
It might not have even been him.
It might have been you.
It might have been me drunk
like a month ago.
Dude,
if you had gotten him
to take your photo
as Adam Gilchrist.
Yeah, fuck.
You should have gotten
Capper to be like Leo Sayer.
Oh, but he's cut his hair.
He doesn't look,
doesn't have quite the hair
for a moment.
Yes.
No, you know what? If I had thought of that, exactly, I would have totally done that. Yeah, Gary Sher oh but he's cut his hair he doesn't look doesn't have quite yeah yeah yes no you know what if i'd have thought of that exactly i would have totally
gary shandling he's back from the dead yeah and again kappa's not the homeless comedian that i
yelled at either no no no this guy i bet i could convince him i'm ken jong yeah yeah yeah i could
be like i was in a hangover yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Fuck. Damn. We honestly,
if we... And that's a great ad
to not get Uber.
Like taxi drivers
play better.
Yeah, there's a different,
there's something a bit
different going on.
Yeah, there's something
where they just
don't give a shit.
There's no shame,
no rule,
no etiquette
because there's no rating.
They don't give a shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're the most
interesting interactions.
I got an Uber last night
and the guy was
eating a lollipop
while he was driving me but in the most disgusting way. Yeah. He was last night and the guy was eating a lollipop while he was driving me, but in
the most disgusting way.
Yeah.
He was just like really slurping away on that thing for like the entire, drove to Footscray.
So it turned you on, is what you're saying.
Yeah, it was really making me uncomfortable.
Those early spleen days.
Disguised my erection in the cab, in the Uber.
I gave him five still.
Do you ever do compliments?
Do you ever tip?
No, I don't tip.
I don't leave comments
Of course you don't tip
Well a compliment
That's just literally a tip
How do you think I afford this?
I can't afford this apartment
If I'm tipping Uber
Do you kind of afford
Your fucking outfit?
I don't tip Ubers
I tip taxi drivers
Yeah
Because you need it more?
Ubers get less
I feel sorry for them
Can I be honest?
I don't feel sorry for them anymore
Really?
Because they ought to have seen
The fucking demise
Of their industry,
and now they're complaining about their license.
Right.
Why didn't you just fucking see it coming?
No.
But maybe they're going to sell it to everybody soon.
Just calm down, man.
Just treat people as people, though.
I feel like I have a right to talk about this.
Stay in your lane, Carl.
What do you think our chances are of finding this fake Will Ferrell?
Honestly, I could die happy.
If we can track him down.
Look, I'll put it online.
I'll put it on all of our social media platforms.
And if anyone recognises this guy.
If he's American.
Okay, Ronnie, you've got to retweet that.
I'll retweet it.
Even if you don't go on social media and you just think,
man, I know someone who 10% looks like Will Ferrell.
Ring him up right now and say,
have you ever impersonated him in a taxi?
What if someone starts impersonating that he's this guy?
Happy to see any impersonators of Will Ferrell's impersonation.
Right, so we just end up with like multiplicity Will Ferrell.
I think it would be awesome to actually have them all in a room.
I look like the guy who kind of looks like Will Ferrell.
We can have an event night of a thousand Ferrells. We can have an event, Night of a Thousand Ferrells.
We can just get all these different people to come in.
What if this episode, what if people love this episode so much?
You know, we've had some great episodes where people,
it's their absolute favourite.
What if this is one of them and then they make a movie of it
and then they get Will Ferrell to play this guy?
Oh, that's great.
I've got an idea.
Okay, so I'm just thinking out loud here.
So obviously everyone knows, Tommy, you had AIDS. What was it? Cancer. Yeah, that's great. I've got an idea. Okay, so I'm just thinking out loud here. So obviously everyone
knows Tommy,
you had AIDS.
What was it?
Cancer.
Yeah, I had AIDS.
A childhood AIDS.
Childhood AIDS.
He had AIDS chemotherapy.
You were like,
you've got to make a wish, right?
Yeah.
But my friend,
he's got AIDS on his kidney.
So I can't tell what it is.
Jesus.
So he's getting his kidney cut out.
But I'm like,
oh bro,
you know the good thing is maybe you get make a wish. And he's like, nah. And he actually'm like oh bro you know the good thing is
maybe you get Make-A-Wish
and he's like nah
and he actually was like
I'm too old for it
by the way
Freddie Mercury didn't have
musical cancer
well that's not too soon
we're allowed to
yeah yeah
he's not listening
so like
so if you
Make-A-Wish
you actually get to meet
like actual celebs
like if you go
I want to meet
you know
usually you get to meet
whereas people that are older
they don't get so maybe what we could offer or what you guys want to meet you know usually you get to meet whereas people that are older they don't get
so maybe what we could offer
or what you guys could offer
as a service
is you get a collection
of shitty lookalikes
and we find someone
that maybe has got a cold
or like is a bit unwell
maybe one of the listeners
and we deliver them
this fake celeb
I love
I love the
the bad lookalikes
and we actually
looked into doing that
once for a live show
yeah we were going to get
the drunk cast this year we were going to get a bunch of bad celebrity lookalikes to come down and into doing that once for a live show yeah we were going to get the drunk cast this year
we were going to get
a bunch of bad
celebrity lookalikes
to come down
and we couldn't find
anyone that were
bad enough
we wanted some
really bad ones
it was just all
Marilyn Monroe
in a blonde wig
anyone can just
whack on a wig
we wanted some
genuinely dodgy
Ricky Gervais
lookalikes
yeah there's heaps
on those websites where it's like,
oh, I'm Borat.
And it's like, you're just a cunt in a mankini.
Yes.
Like, you don't look like Sasha Van Der Kolk.
But if, Nani, we've got to find people that wouldn't make a website for themselves.
Someone that, everyone's like, you look like Ben Stiller.
I thought when you were saying the Make-A-Wish thing,
you were going to say, we find a sick kid and we get their wish to be,
I want you to find this man in the photo.
I mean the resources of the
Make-A-Wish Foundation
going in and just
finding some random guy
dude
convince a kid
you're gonna die anyway
what's it matter
fuck it
what's it matter
if you get a computer
or not
yeah
just give us this thing
wait that's right
you got a laptop right
I got a laptop yeah
you know what we could do
we could take that photo
to the
we go to the cops we take that photo to the... We go to the cops.
We take that photo and we say,
this man assaulted me.
And then we get crime stoppers in on the act.
Then we're going to get more eyes on the...
And then we find him and we go,
oh, sorry, it was actually a guy that looked like John C. Reilly.
You'll get charged for that, though.
I get confused, I watch all the columns.
It was a bad movie.
It didn't actually sexually assault me. What I meant was it was a bad movie it didn't actually sexually assault me
what I meant was
it was a bad movie
and I want him
in trouble for it
or you could just say
he's gone missing
how does a missing person
say
so for instance
let's get his photo
on the side of a milk cart
but you need to be related
I couldn't just go
Carl Chandler's missing
find him
well who are you to him
a friend
so if I say
that this is my uncle
and he's gone missing
we could find him that way yeah well he has gone missing, we could find him that way.
Yeah, well, he has gone missing because we can't find him.
Well, we don't know where he is.
His location is unknown to us.
Technically, he is missing to us.
Last seen in a taxi.
We could put up missing posters and shit.
We do a whole, so we find this guy,
then we'd have to like, you'd have to look at maybe,
I don't know if you took down the details of this cab driver.
Absolutely not.
And we recreate the whole night.
We just do a one-hour special where we just...
Look at his fucking face.
He is fucking...
Ronnie's having a good look at him again.
I want to see again because he's just loving it.
Because his photo...
He fucking really is loving it.
I know this is a podcast.
Because by the way, this is a photo.
By the way, this is a photo.
I'll drag it out
It's a photo of
This is a photo of a
Of a photo
Because
He was holding it
He was
The cab driver was holding up
The
The iPhone
Yeah
And so I'm in the back seat
Just going
Yeah cool
Just hold it up for a minute longer
And me just taking a picture
From the back of the cab
That's how you got it
Yeah because I was
That's the actual
Yeah because I was like
I'm going to laugh at this tomorrow
And then I Because we'd had a few'm going to laugh at this tomorrow And then I
Because we'd had a few drinks
And I woke up this morning
And then talked to
And then went through my phone
And went
Oh fuck I forgot all about that
Oh the best
So you didn't
He didn't even legitimately
Let you take a photo
Of his phone
You just took my back
Yeah yeah yeah
You just kept on holding it higher
Yeah yeah
But I'm assuming that
What he's holding up on his phone
He's zoomed in right
It's not a photo
Of the two of them
Wow No no no It's just a Is not a photo of the two of them.
No, no, no.
Is it a photo of the two of them that he just zoomed in on?
So he just got a photo of the guy on the screen? He just turned around in the cab and said, smile, and took a photo.
Yeah, I think he's just turned around and taken a picture of him.
That's great.
Saying to a celeb, would you mind if I get a photo?
Not with me in it, just a photo of you.
Just a worse picture of something I could have got in Google Images.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
of your face just a worse picture
of something I could have
got in Google Images
yeah yeah
I've got to say
my
the people that
that like my comedy
the most
and if I ever get recognised
it's the most
it happens in taxis

I was in an Uber pool
in New York
last time we were there
with two girls
that I didn't know
and they were talking about
having just been at a gig
and then eventually
I realised that
they were talking about you Ronnie
they'd literally just been
to see you do
I think a trial show
or something
and they were
they were talking for a while
and then I turned around
and I went
oh I had to interrupt
but he's my buddy
like we've you know
met him in Australia
and they're like
why didn't you
chime in earlier
and I'm like
I was kind of hoping
you'd tee off
in some way
I was waiting to get
a little treat
up my sleeve
where was this
this is in New York
this is when we were
in New York
in 2017
oh they came and watched the trial show.
Yeah.
The trial show, okay.
And where did you meet these girls?
In an Uber pool.
What?
That's crazy.
What did they say about the trial show?
Actually, don't tell me.
I can't know this stuff.
Well, it's in the past now.
It's the old hour.
Yeah, exactly.
That you said is really great.
Yeah.
And that's what they thought, as far as you know.
Okay.
Let's leave it as that, yeah.
I mean, it's a trial show hopefully it got better
from there
yeah you gotta start
somewhere guys
that was two years ago
it's probably got better
Jesus
yeah there was this guy
who he contacted me
oh you know
you know what
while you say that
sorry
fans of yours that go
that don't go to your show I've just got exactly the same thing.
We just got back from Koh Samui, right?
Yeah.
Third year in a row.
Got hit by a guy.
You got hit by a guy?
No, I got hit by this guy.
He was commenting on stuff as we were over there on Facebook and stuff
and going, oh, yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah.
Oh, yeah, sorry, it was bad weather today.
Oh, I think it's better weather tomorrow. I'm like, what are you talking about? He's like, oh, yeah, Samui blah, blah. Oh, yeah, sorry. Sorry, it was bad weather today. And oh, I think it's better weather tomorrow.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
He's like, oh, yeah, Samui's only had one day of rain
and you've copped it.
Sorry about that.
I'm like, are you, do you live in Koh Samui?
And he's like, yeah.
I'm like, oh, it's cool.
I'll see you at the show.
He's like, no, I'm not coming.
Prick.
A guy lives in Koh Samui and he didn't come to our show
at the Koh Samui International Podcast.
That makes no sense.
What did he say?
Why was he busy?
I don't know.
I don't know what he did.
What was he doing?
These are the sorts of people
that vote for Trump
and just are pedophiles, man.
There's nothing wrong with them.
Koh Samui doesn't have
that many permanent residents.
There's like 80,000
or something like that.
And he's Australian.
I don't know.
Oh, but was he like white?
I don't know.
What's his name?
What do you know about him?
You sound like the taxi driver
describing the comedian. It was just comments on Facebook. It was just a guy talking on Facebook? I don't know. What's his name? What do you know about him? You sound like the taxi driver describing the comedian.
It was just comments on Facebook.
It was just a guy talking on Facebook.
I didn't click on his profile or anything like that.
Okay, okay.
Bloody hell.
He wasn't Thai because we have no Thai listeners.
I know that.
He must have been an ex-thiever.
Do you try to do outreach with the local community?
Or is it basically a colonial project?
You're just going out there.
He goes there.
He creates an enclave.
You create your own little fucking resort.
Yes.
What's your interaction
with the local culture
apart from the elephant reserves
pumping thousands
and thousands
I thought you were
going to say
pumping the locals
you fucking scum
pumping a lot of money
into the local economy
oh really
don't you pay all the comics
pumping a lot of semen
into the local economy
and that's from
I'm going to name names
but you said
you're stopping it right
Because it's grown too big
And you can't handle it
No it wasn't because of that
Just because we're moving on
We'll do something else
No man
You can't handle the success
You're scared of it
You're scared of success
Well how do you deal with it
Ronnie
You clearly

I could
We could end
Comedy Central Network
You're going to lose your job
because we found out
about a guy who looks like
Will Ferrell
a little bit
no
they're going to lose it
because we're talking about
homeless people

I don't want to talk about it.
I don't want to talk about this thing.
I don't know if they want
to be associated.
It's good enough for Instagram
but not good enough for a podcast.
When you met Quentin Tarantino,
was he really interested
in the socks?
Is that a good conversation

I know.
It couldn't ever happen on our timeline.
Is this a David Lynch movie or something?
It's like Black Mirror.
Salvador Dali or something? No, if it helps.
If it helps, it's actually one of those movies

Of China I don't know I don't know enough about it Where's the too Asian for you or something. But what are the good points of China?
I don't know.
What's the next new place that you think you'll go?
Good question.
What do you mean you don't know enough about China?
You probably know.
You've bumped into more Chinese people in your life.
I think it's Chinese people, but I don't need to go to their house.

Shout out to Andy Curtin.
Do you know Andy Curtin?
I know Andy Curtin, yeah.
He went to law school.
He went to my law school, yeah.
I did Beijing.
It was cool.
It was cool to see.
What'd you do?
What?
Beijing.
I did a show in Beijing.
Don't worry about it.
Don't you have to say it?
Beijing.
You know Beijing?
Nah.
I thought it was.
Fucking Morgan.
He's such a

Beijing.
Beijing.
But you say,
what did you say?
Beijing.
Beijing.
Beijing.
It sounds like Des Bishop.
Beijing.
Sounds like Des Bishop.
A Chinese guy sounds like
Des Bishop
pretending to be a Chinese guy.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It was cool to see.
Beijing is very modern
And it's very hipster
You'd be surprised
Can't concentrate
I know
I know
I haven't heard a word
Apart from Beijing
He literally
After you say Beijing
He stops listening
Yeah
He stops listening
He's like
What the fuck
His brain just
I put the rest of it on hold
I'm like
Let's deal with this first
Wait
How many places in Asia
Have you been?
Other than Thailand
Japan?
Tokyo?
You've been to Japan?
Yeah yeah yeah
That's cool right?
That place is nice
Yeah it's nice
I gotta go back there
I gotta go back there
Where else?
Malaysia?
Malaysia
Have you been there?
Malaysia
Where did you go to Malaysia?
As a stopover
Back from Thailand one time
Wait did you get out of the airport?
Yeah yeah yeah
Like three or four days
In KL
Oh really?
Yeah
It's hilarious how much you like Thailand
You're such a bogan
It's great
I've never been to Bali
In my head that excuses me
You gotta do
Something there
You gotta go to Bali
I've been to Singapore
A bunch of times
So what are you gonna do
With the Koh Samui podcast?
What's the next thing?
I don't know
We only just finished it We only just finished it I know but what do you In your head you know like Do you have to do with the Koh Samui podcast? What's the next thing? I don't know. We only just finished it.
We only just finished it.
I know, but in your head you had no like...
Do you have to pay tax or anything there?
Can I ask you a question?
Here's the thing.
Now that we're not doing it anymore,
this is the thing I only thought about as we were there.
I was like, are we technically earning money?
Well, you technically are.
I'm going to tell you that.
You're going to another country.
You are doing activities that derive profit for you.
And what did you give back to them in terms of tax? What are you talking about? You're talking to another country. You are doing activities that derive profit to you. And what did you give back to them in terms of tax?
What are you talking about?
You're talking about tax?
It's a tax deduction.
As in in Australia?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I just want to...
For instance, you come and do a gig in Australia.
You have to pay tax in Australia, right?
Yeah.
So they did a series of gigs in Thailand.
Yeah.
I'm just saying, you might want to consult a professional.
Yeah, look,
we're not there.
We're not there anymore,
so I'm pretty sure we're all fine.
Like, we didn't charge anyone over there.
I just remembered.
So, you know, we went...
Oh, you just remembered.
So you got all the money in Australia.
What money?
As in admission fees.
It was free, I think.
So any listener,
they might disagree with what you're saying.
I think some people donated money to us here for something unrelated.
They donated when they were in Australia.
I believe they donated.
This is a new tactic to get cancelled.
You're trying to get the ETO.
Did you sell a t-shirt in Thailand?
No.
Not a single t-shirt.
Some people stole t-shirts from me and left money afterwards, I think.
My mum gave us a lot of money and she just filtered it through about 150 different people
and passed it on to us in an envelope.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so the Coastal Movement International Podcast Festival has no tax obligations outstanding.
Look, whoever runs that festival, I mean, I don't know.
We just perform.
We went over there at the behest of the festival.
Whatever they do with their offshore accounts is their business.
We're mere minstrels.
We're performers.
What do we know?
We don't have that side of the brain.
That is the best defense I've ever heard.
The tax evasion.
Your Honor, we want mere minstrels.
The minstrel defense.
We would like to invoke the minstrel defence.
That's awesome.
I rest my case as Will Ferrell.
If you want to go after me, hit up my company, funny or die.
It was Adam Gilchrist who ran the course.
Hit up the Australian Cricket Board.
ATO, hit up the ACB.
It's between you guys.
Please leave us mere minstrels out of it.
All right.
We'd better wrap it up for another week on the Little Dumb Dumb Club.
Nazeem and Ronnie, thank you so much for joining us.
Thanks for editing all the stuff that goes in trouble out of this.
No worries.
You're very welcome.
Do Patreon people get to listen to that at least?
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Everyone gets to listen to it.
The bits that you
edit out
do you give them
no
because they would
be the sort of
people that would
then get us in
trouble
so you trust
none of your
listeners
we don't trust
anyone
there's not even
a tier of
listener that you
trust
you trust none
of them
the people who give us money,
they think,
well, that justifies.
We give you money,
we're allowed to get you in trouble
with the police or fucking whatever.
It's so stupid.
That's the tier of Patreon
where they're allowed to like
fucking get us in the papers.
You know after a comedy show,
the people who ask you
those stupidest questions,
100% of those are their fans.
It's a complete correlation.
What do you got coming Ronnie you're back
on the Daily Show
and you got a
yeah
I might be back
in Australia
in August
to film like
another film
oh really
yeah yeah
Crocodile Dundee 4
nice
I wish
that's a great idea
so if I come back
I'll come and see you guys
but thanks for
promoting your show
and I had a really
good run this time
I got one more show
in Canberra next week
but this probably
won't come out
in time
so don't worry about it
yeah maybe not
yeah but it's okay man
it's always fun
to be in Australia
and see the friends
and try to catch up
with everyone
very nice of you
thanks Ronnie
thanks
Nazeem what do you got
I've got Darwin shows
Darwin festival
oh yeah
that's a good festival
that's pretty good
I love it
the outdoor thing
yeah outdoor thing
and people who are there
really want to be there
that's our gig
fake Koh Samui
podcast festival
that's the imitation
except I pay tax over there
oh
yeah
I'll be paying tax
okay
I'll be giving back
to the people
that get to me
I'll be mingling
with the locals
Carl gave the people in Koh Sam me. What do you mean? Are we mingling with the locals?
Carl gave the people in Kosovo
lots of his sperm.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's valuable.
And they had to be
on their knees
to promise to gig.
They could breed
new cricketers
out of that.
The tight cricketers.
Fuck.
And I know
Tommy's not going
to edit that out.
So now I've been
a lot of trouble. And an Adelaide that out so now I'm in a live show
and an Adelaide show
one more
oh a solo show
in Adelaide
yep
at Winterfest
something called Winterfest
lots of people in Adelaide
that like us
and buy tickets really early
so
they come to my show
yeah
they probably do
on the day
on the fucking day
you're right
you're right
on the day
tricks
Tommy what do you have
I got this podcast
so listen to this one, guys.
Cool.
Go back to the start
and listen to it.
Yeah.
Listen to it in reverse now.
When are you casting off
to fish again?
Yeah.
Casting off to fish.
After you guys leave,
I'm going to head down
to the docks.
Not to do any fishing.
Not to fish, though, yeah.
You got to post the photo
right at the start
just so people know
what you look like right now.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, that'll be
in the episode thing.
This'll be in the episode picture.
And for the record,
I don't not not like you.
Oh, nice.
What a happy ending.
Don't not not like me.
So I don't like you would be...
He could have said,
I don't like you. Yeah. could have said I don't like you
Yeah
Right
So he doesn't like me
He cancelled
The two nots cancelled
No no
I don't not
Not like you
So yeah you
Don't like him
No no
I don't not like you
So
Right
Then he said another not
Yeah just say one not
I don't not not like you
Just say you like me
Yeah
Yeah
Wait
What I meant is
I don't like you.
Oh, okay.
That's what you're
correct.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right.
Thanks very much
for listening, everyone,
and we'll see you
next time.
See you, mates.
Thoughts?
Thoughts, Tommy?
Would you like to
do the honours?
Would you like to take this champagne bottle and smash it across the bow of this boat?
Of this podcast?
I believe.
The reverse christening?
I am HO.
They've done it again.
Mm-mm.
What do you think?
Not that humble.
Maybe I am O.
They've done it again.
In your opinion.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sometimes you've got to take the H out.
Sometimes I'll be drafting a text, got the H in there, and then go, there's nothing humble about a text that says...
IMHO, I got a massive wang.
Send to mum.
IMHO, it's average size.
No, great.
In my opinion, ep.
Love having Rotten Ronald.
Two of our favourites on the show, Rotten Ronald, Chang and Nazeem Hussain.
Always good to drag celebrities down to our level and try and get them in trouble.
Very nice of Rotten Ronnie to waste his time on us once he gives every
appearance like he hates us and then at the last second he agrees to a pod and we get him in here
within like it's it's like like when rolling stones used to do secret club shows no one would
know about it and then an hour to go the word go out that's that's what it's like i will get yeah
i'll get a message from ronnie like an hour to go and go okay i'll do it where where's your stupid house but then the but then if the rolling
stones were on stage just like abusing the audience yeah yeah yeah and and genuinely you
say give every appearance that he hates us yeah and then comes and does it and then continues to
give every appearance that he hates us i love rotten ranald um, fun times. That's one way of looking at it.
No, it was.
It's good.
I think it must be the episode that I look forward to the most contrasting with that you look forward to the least.
I hate it.
Yeah.
I hate it.
I enjoyed seeing the photo that you had.
Oh, yes, right.
Of course, right.
That was an oasis.
Yeah, right, right. Yeah, well,, right. Yep. That was an oasis. Yeah. Right.
Right.
Yeah, well, I'll put that up on the socials.
So get on your Facebooks, get on your Instagrams, get on your Twitters.
But everything else.
Right.
Not to my taste.
Well, thanks for putting up with it.
It's what I like.
Yeah.
If I could have him on every week, I would, but you'd be dead by now.
Yeah.
I don't think I'd enjoy that at all.
Yeah.
Love it, love it.
Like we said at the top of the show, we've got a new show announced.
We're going to Tasmania for the first time.
Show-wise, we are.
We're doing a live podcast down there.
We've resisted it for many years.
I've always thought, I don't know if we'd get the numbers.
Look, it's really been rammed into my face that we do have the numbers down there.
So, okay, we're doing it.
It's a small place.
Yeah.
We put it on the socials.
You look at the population down there and it's really not that big, is it?
So, that's what always put me off.
They are towns rather than cities, really, down there.
And that's no disrespect to them.
That's just...
That's just facts.
Yeah, it's just figures.
Don't blame us.
Blame the census.
Yeah, you can't have – it's not an opinion.
It's a fact.
So, yeah, we have decided to go down.
It is selling well already.
We put it on sale.
We notified people on the social medias.
So this isn't the first time some people are hearing about it.
So that means it's already been selling. So, look, it is a small room um we don't know what to expect so
we thought we'd book a small room um so get onto it if you have any interest in coming along we're
not going to put on a second show uh we don't have that many guests but we do have ripper guests so
come down um get a ticket get online right now if you're hearing this and get onto it and this
this should be sold out pretty soon.
I can't wait to get the feedback from people that they can't be fucked driving from Devonport or wherever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A place that's an hour and a half away to come and watch the show.
Yeah, well, Samui style.
And, you know, the Perth one's a recent one as well.
So that's, man, you just told me the figures before.
That's looking like it's two-thirds full as well, so within less than a week.
Yep.
So get onto that.
Again, we can't be doing extra shows in either of those cities.
Nope.
So if you want to come, get onto it.
It's our one trip to both those places for the year, so get onto that.
And of course, look, Timewise, Sydney and Newcastle,
neither of them are quite sold out yet,
but they're very close, so please, that's our one
trip for the year. Get into it,
please. And it's coming up pretty soon. Yes.
Something that I would like
to plug quickly, a personal endeavour
of mine. I haven't
talked about this on the show yet, but I am doing an
exhibition in Melbourne from
November the 20th until December
the 1st at b-side gallery on
brunswick street uh it's called vanilla hills it's all stuff that i am purpose doing for this
exhibition a lot of you guys if you've seen our posters or the patreon magazine and stuff you will
have seen uh my illustration work so this is a whole bunch of stuff that i'm doing brand new for
this um there's going to be like a big kind of opening night party thing on November the 20th at
6pm at the gallery, which yeah, if you're someone who likes to travel to our gigs and
stuff, you could maybe make a bit of a week out of it.
You could come to the exhibition on the Wednesday night, then you could go to the European Beer
Cafe on the Thursday, and then you could get yourself down to Tassie in time for our gig
on the Saturday.
Yeah, I was going to say, how's that going to affect the preparation
for the live podcast in Hobart?
That's but a couple of days before that.
I mean, usually before a live podcast, me and you go away for the week
and we go down to a beach chalet and really plot out every second
of the live podcast.
Yeah, we do a lot of trust exercises.
Me falling and you never catch me, so I just hit the dirt. Yeah, both of us lot of trust exercises. Me falling and you catch. You never catch me.
So I just hit the dirt.
Yeah.
Both of us falling at the same time.
Not thinking out that someone has to catch.
That is a great metaphor for this podcast.
We both forgot to catch.
But yeah, I'm really looking forward to that.
There's going to be a lot of cool stuff involved in that,
which I'm very excited about
um so yeah worth worth putting in the diary now even though it is a fair way away if you're
someone who likes to travel for these sorts of things what happens when you put on one of these
uh does that mean you have to uh i mean you'll make a speech you'll uh no oh no no you know
would you like me to make a speech no weird um've got to put on like hors d'oeuvres
and, you know, grog and stuff, wouldn't you?
The gallery supplies the grog.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
So it's free booze for the opening night.
Right.
Which they supply.
Hang on, I just...
A lot of ears just were pricked, I think,
listeners of our show suddenly into art.
Yeah, a lot of people that were mere minutes away
going, art gallery, sounds gay.
There was a... No, there was a guy. I don't know if this guy's around anymore or whatever,
but there was a guy that used to come to a lot of comedy.
And by a lot of comedy, I meant a lot of free comedy.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he used to turn up to these free comedy gigs, pretty pissed sometimes.
And it'd be like, how are you pissed already?
It's like the start of the gig.
And he just somehow found out when all the art galleries were having opening nights.
And he would go along and just get sozzled at the art gallery openings.
No interest in the art.
Big time.
Or deodorant.
And then come along to, this isn't Kappa we're talking about.
This is someone else.
And then would come along to the free comedy.
He would just go to everything that's free.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I found that out.
I was doing a few years ago, I would go and help out at gallery openings every now and then.
And I was thinking, like I said to one of the gallery owners, like, oh, this would be thinking that I had like invented this scam.
You know, if you were across it, you know, there's one of these things happening nearly every night of the week.
You could just cruise in and just be getting drunk five days out of the
week and never paying a cent and they're like yeah that happens right and this lady was like
see that guy over there and it was this guy with like a shopping trolley full of like all these
fake plants that he had like stolen from somewhere right and i was like how did i not notice this guy
when i started making the speech about what a scam it'd be oh how did you not notice him when
you just walked into an art gallery and saw a man with a shopping trolley verse well i thought he
was one of the pieces i thought it was like performance art he was just a drunk installation
yeah so i am that's it i mean i am looking forward to am looking forward to more than likely seeing some of those kind of people at my opening
and also finding it very hard to differentiate between those people and fans of this podcast that have come along.
Right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Are you ready for the reviewers?
Oh, yeah.
Are you ready for some online bloggers?
Yeah.
I wonder if it'll get reviewed.
Can you do me one favour?
Can I ask one request?
Yeah, what do you want?
Just one request.
Can you please wear a beret when you're there?
Oh, okay.
Yeah, okay.
What are the chances?
Well, my dad will probably be there and he's very into a beret.
You would have seen him wearing a beret before.
This doesn't stick in my head.
Right.
He'll probably dust off the beret. Okay. You would have seen him wearing a beret before. This doesn't stick in my head. Right. Yeah.
He'll probably dust off the beret and bring it out.
If you make a speech, can you put on a beret just for the speech?
Yeah.
Right.
I kind of like the idea of not doing a speech, though.
Like, the gallery people were like, why don't you do stand-up?
And I'm like, because I don't want to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like the idea that you work on the exhibition.
You know, with stand-up, you work on the jokes and everything.
Yeah.
And then you get to the night of.
And then the job is only half done.
You have to get up and do it.
Right.
Whereas with this, you put all the work in.
And then you have the opening.
Once it's all hanging, I'm off the clock.
You know what I mean? I think you're wasting an opportunity because there's a lot of goodwill in the room for you.
Yeah, that's true.
If they're coming to your thing.
Like you've always said you don't want to get married.
This is the closest to like a wedding speech you get to make.
Oh, that's not bad.
Yeah.
So if I treat it like that.
Yeah.
Right.
So I'll do a speech about a woman that doesn't exist.
Yeah.
And end it with, she'll be back.
Yeah, okay. Maybe i will say something that would make that would
actually be funny if you use that as your setup for the speech and say i didn't want to make this
speech but then someone told me this is this is like a wedding speech and i would never want to
get married so here's my wedding speech the best man of this exhibition convinced me that i should
do it yeah yeah well it's just it's mostly because the things of that ilk that I've been to,
they haven't had that.
Right.
They haven't had speeches,
which has made me think that it's not a thing that's done.
But you're a performer.
That's true.
It's a good reason to do it.
Yeah.
If they've got a PA, if they've got a mic, all that sort of stuff,
I think it would be good.
Try some new.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Man, they're there to see you.
They're happy.
They've got free drinks off you.
Yeah, that's fair.
This is their night off. Why not, mate? Man, make the there to see you. They're happy. They've got free drinks off you. Yeah, that's fair. This is their night off.
Why not, mate?
Man, make the most of it.
And it's something different.
You get to then figure out a way of playing that situation.
It'd be fun.
All right, you've convinced me.
Put in a few plugs for last-minute tickets for Hobart while you're there.
That's not bad.
People sort out a lift to the airport for when we go to do the show.
Do a funny one and I'll record it and then we'll put it in the Patreon.
Oh, that's not bad.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Yeah, okay, you've convinced me.
But maybe this has turned people off of like, oh, God, I've got to sit through him fucking
doing stand-up and this thing.
Oh, God, I don't want to go to something and hear Tommy talking as I'm listening to him
talk on a thing I'm choosing to listen to.
Well, when we promote our stand-up shows, we don't get as many people to them.
So that's what I'm thinking.
Maybe that element traditionally scared people off.
I think people who are in a podcast are not so – maybe they see stand-up as a very staid way of doing things.
I think they're more into like they come to the live podcast
or if there's something weird happening, they're into it.
But something like stand-up is what your dad used to listen to, you know.
Is that maybe?
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah, maybe that is it.
Maybe.
I don't know.
That's just a guess.
Well, then if that's the mentality towards stand-up,
then I hate to see what the mentality towards an art exhibition is.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, I was going to mention this down the line,
but I'll mention it now.
So I think this is what's going to happen as part of my exhibition.
I think that I'm going to have a support act.
A support act artist?
Yep.
Right.
In the form of, some of you folks may have seen his artwork online,
Nick Capper, who I was talking to about this in Samui,
and he was like, oh, that's cool that you're doing an exhibition.
I'd love to do something like that.
And I was like, why don't you do support for me?
I'll just have some of your pieces up the stairwell as people walk in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he was into it. Right. support for me i'll just have some of your pieces up the stairwell as people walk in yeah yeah and
he was into it right and then i went and met the uh gallery owner when i got back and i was telling
her this idea and she doesn't know me previously she doesn't know him she doesn't know the world
of comedy or anything she's into the idea and then she unprompted goes we've actually got a
pretty big bathroom that he could hang stuff oh my god
so i go in and it's like it's like a unisex bathroom that's just got like three cubicles
in it but it's got it's like a pretty long kind of expansive wall kind of looking onto the cubicles
so i've talked to capper about it so he's going to do support for my he's going to have like a
mini pop-up exhibition doing support for my exhibition
inside the toilet at the gallery great perfect absolutely perfect so what if so i do a speech
in the actual gallery yeah and and that's me opening my exhibition yeah and then as part of
the pop-up exhibition that's within my exhibition we all move into the toilets yeah and we have the
opening of kappa's exhibition and you get the full Kappa experience where you see the art and you smell the Kappa experience as well.
And so the gallery take a commission of everything I sell.
And then anything Kappa sells, I get a commission.
Oh, really?
Plus then the gallery takes a commission out of that.
Oh, man.
So Kappa's on about 5% takings for the art that he sells.
Great.
That'd be good if then Kappa took that as a sort of inspiration.
He could sort of, like if he knows he's creating art for the toilet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, he can base it around that.
I mean, this will be brutal if I then notice, like, man, it's pretty quiet in this gallery.
I guess maybe people are going to show up later.
And then I just hear all this noise coming from the toilet and it's packed.
The toilet show is like killing and everyone hates my exhibition.
Well, you're pushing people towards his exhibition by giving out free grog because all of a sudden
their bladders get full and they're like, I think I need to take a visit to the little
capper exhibition.
Well, it's the least I can do.
Yeah, right.
capper exhibition.
Well, it's the least I can do.
Yeah, right.
He should get some of his drawings printed on exclusive dunny roll.
What do you mean?
Like get some toilet paper printed up with his illustrations on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you do that?
Can you get like custom-made toilet paper?
Surely that would be a thing, right?
It would be a thing.
I don't know if it's – you do it in small loads though.
Excuse me? You know what I mean. A short run. Short runs. Right. Yeah. I don't know if it's – you do it in small loads though. Excuse me?
You know what I mean.
A short run, short runs.
Right.
Yeah, I don't know.
Look, possible.
Look, if anyone can get it done, it's someone with an unlimited bank account like Nick Happer.
Yeah, great, exciting.
So that's mid-November.
November 20.
And then the exhibition runs for what, a week?
Two weeks.. November 20. And then the exhibition runs for what, a week? Two weeks.
So November 20.
So that's obviously the thing I want everyone to come to is the opening night.
But if you can't make it for that, it'll be there until December 1st.
Right.
And you've got to put prices on your work, do you?
I know.
That's very intimidating.
That is.
Yeah.
Well, great.
Well, my little thing I'll bring up before.
Look, we'd like to thank all the Patreon subscribers,
and we will do that in a minute.
I'll just do a tiny little update of this.
We talked about the live shows coming up,
which is Sydney on the 27th of July.
It's very next day, Newcastle, 28th of July.
It's Perth on the 13th of October.
And just added, it is Hobart in Tasmania on the 23rd of November.
Please come along.
All of them selling very well.
We'd love to have an absolutely full room wherever we go.
We always want that.
We usually get it.
That's what we want now.
The end of the – ending the 2019 world tour in Hobart.
Yeah.
At the end of the world.
the 2019 world tour in Hopeheart.
Yeah.
At the end of the world.
So Sydney and Newcastle are back to back coming up very soon.
Newcastle, if you've been listening along to recent episodes,
we are going to do the Sydney show then in the morning.
We get up. I entered in Run Melbourne in a running competition fundraising event.
I found out on this very show from you
that that's the same day that we're in Newcastle.
You need to raise funds to get a calendar.
Yes.
So now I am running in Newcastle.
Some people have done it online,
but if someone can nail it down,
and I'm doing my 10K run.
It was supposed to be in Run Melbourne.
I'm doing it now in Newcastle.
If we can nail down a good run
so I can run from somewhere in Newcastle
straight into the door at the live show
at five o'clock on that very day.
How many different route options have you been given?
A few, but then,
I don't really know Newcastle at all,
but a lot of people are going,
you know it's fucking really hilly, right?
Jesus Christ.
And again, if you've been listening,
I busted my toe the other week. And so i've literally taken the little plaster off today um and so i'm now i haven't run
for a couple weeks i've got to get back into that but um uh part of the reason of doing it is of
course i am raising funds for shake it up australia uh a lot of you guys uh pitched in already thank
you very much for doing that.
There is a link on the website if you want to jump on and contribute there. I've made
a little goal of $3,500 or about $2,000 at the moment, so with a few weeks to go, it
would be great if we could make that goal. That would be awesome. So if you can get on
there, click that link. Now, the little tiny bit of news this week that I was given is that Shake It Up Australia,
with all those funds that you guys at home have very generously chucked in,
they noticed that straight away and emailed me and went,
oh, man, what's happening?
You've raised a lot of funds straight away.
Thank you very much for that.
What can we do for you or whatever?
I'm like, I don't know.
What can you do?
Cure Parkinson's?
Yeah, yeah.
All right, it's the least we can do to say thanks.
We were just going to go off and do a Parkinson's convention in Thailand with this money.
But anyway, so they've sent me a singlet and a hat to run in.
So I'm going to be running my little shake it up.
It's amazing what you can get for $1,500 these days.
It's made of Versace, so it's pretty sweet right yeah so uh uh yeah thank you very much i'll be i'll be wearing the
official merch of shake it up australia um what's it look like i just got their logo and stuff on
it it's like what's their i'm gonna look this up i actually don't know what their logo you can't
well you just gotta you know with something about park Parkinson's, you know, like it's partnered with the Michael
J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
So you can't do a funny little logo.
Oh, right.
So it's not like cartoon style, a little like wobble shaky on the side of it.
No, no.
It seems like a missed opportunity.
Yeah.
I mean, we all know what we're here for.
There's nothing wrong with that.
You can't have Michael J. Fox jumping in the DeLorean.
What's it called?
DeLorean. DeLorean. DeLorean. What's it called? DeLorean.
DeLorean.
DeLorean.
Oh, la-di-da.
DeLorean and going forward into the future to find the cure.
Yeah.
That logo's pretty nice, pretty tasteful.
It's okay.
It looks like an Escher painting.
It's kind of the words are all kind of different.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's got a...
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anytime I see angles, I'm like, oh, fucking slow down as you mc mc angles himself um yeah so lovely thank you very much for sending
that to me so i'll be running live uh running onto the live podcast in all that gear and yes
to answer the question of a lot of people being saying yes that means i will be with shorts on
stage um at some point until hopefully I find pants on stage
and put them on.
But didn't we talk about this, that we could –
We basically could have –
Reverse stripper style.
Yeah.
So we could have like a banner for you to –
like a finish line thing for you to run to that's onto the stage.
Yeah.
I'm then –
Yeah, I'm then on the other side of that holding open a pair of pants yeah
that you then run immediately into yeah or i could just run on stage and you would be good if you're
on stage by yourself and then you're like and welcome the other half of the show as i puff
into the venue yeah run up the stairs and you say carl turn and i go g'day dickhead just as i jump
in the air and you put a pair of pants underneath me and i jump straight into them. Right. So you freeze in midair bullet time style.
Yes.
Which gives me enough time to attach the pants to you.
I can't see anything going wrong with that.
No.
Well, done.
Fuck, I really hope this is one of those things where like you shit your pants immediately
after the run.
I really hope it's like, you know, those marathon runners that just like their body just fucking
conks out on them.
Yeah.
At the finish line.
I haven't, you know, look, a lot of people fit and whatever and whatever i haven't done i haven't run a 10k for a long time
so um so it's it's i'm looking forward to it like i'm looking forward to doing it and then
seeing what energy that means i have then on stage or how i feel or however it works yeah i mean i
guess you'll be pretty like you'll be tired but i, I mean, I guess you'll be pretty, like you'll be tired,
but I guess for the immediate hour afterwards you'll probably be fine.
You'll be pretty energised.
Yeah.
Like I did that 10K last year and I remember like just really buzzing
right afterwards because it was like fun and like I hadn't run
that distance consecutively ever.
Yeah.
So feeling like, oh, wow.
And then later in the day just crashingively ever. Yep. So feeling like, oh, wow. And then later in the day, just crashing pretty hard.
Right.
But for the immediately afterwards, I think the adrenaline will just like get you over
the edge.
Sure.
And also, like you mentioned last week, we're doing a live podcast in Sydney the night before
in front of 300 people.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That'll mean some form of refreshments.
And especially this week, finding out that a friend of ours called Milan
looks like he's coming up on the Sydney show as well.
Yeah, right.
Is he going to come to Newey?
No.
Right.
Don't think so.
I don't think his vibe.
No, I don't think there's –
I don't think it seems as entertaining as Sydney for him.
I think as I said, oh, does that mean you're coming to Sydney as well?
He's like, fuck no.
So, yeah, anyway.
He might be, if anyone's betting against me finishing the 10K,
the odds on that will be going right down if Milan does come.
Just stay up all night, bro.
Oh, easy, dude.
Cool.
So, guys, jump onto the website and chuck in.
Man, chuck in.
You know what?
Everyone has been chucking in big donations, which is very appreciated and good for you.
But what we need now is a bunch of the little guys.
You know what?
Don't be shown to put five bucks in.
Just do that.
That's great.
If we had just a bunch of five buckers, it would really soar up at the moment.
So that would be great.
Very much appreciate it.
All the people have been chucking in $69 and all that stuff.
But if you've just got a spare five bucks, chuck that in.
That would be great.
Lovely.
All right.
Let's get on to speaking of chucking in money.
Here's some people that are chucking in money to a much more honourable charity.
Us.
Fucking hell.
To cure whatever we have.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
To work out, A, work out what it is, and B, then get cracking on a cure.
Yeah.
That's not a shotgun to the head.
Yeah, right.
Thank you to everyone who pitches in for our Patreon at patreon.com slash littledumbdumbclub.
People that like that this show continues to be on air, as it were.
As we've said many times before, when people talk to us about doing these podcasts and how long we've been doing it for,
and they go, oh, how did you go in the first couple of years?
Like, yeah, we did it for absolutely free.
We didn't do, you know, we got no money out of the first bunch of years of it.
And it's like...
For four years easy, I reckon.
Yeah.
Minimum.
If it went back to that again, we would in no way be doing that.
I mean, you say that a lot that if Patreon hadn't have come along, then we wouldn't still
be doing this.
I also think there's an argument to be made that we're perhaps too dumb to have realised
that this is a thing that we could just stop doing.
Yeah.
I do love the alternate reality. Yeah. It's just like, we could just stop doing. Yeah. I do love the alternate reality.
It's just like we're not even doing live shows.
We're just doing this completely for free every week.
But it's hard to do to go to do it and then get money for it
and then go back to doing it for nothing.
Oh, right.
I don't know why you're – yeah, I don't know what this hypothetical is.
What, that we just take ourselves off Patreon one day?
Yeah, if we... Yeah, somehow.
Back to just a love...
You know what?
We need to get rid of the money
because we're being influenced by that too much.
Yeah.
We need to really make it more pure for ourselves
and just get back to the love of the art.
No, but if everyone...
What I'm saying is because I'm very thankful
for everyone that chips in.
If everyone stopped chipping in...
Oh, I see what you're saying.
...and we didn't get any more,
we'd be like, well, fuck this.
Yeah, okay.
It's like getting a job and rising up through the ranks
and then getting to CEO and then someone going,
actually, we don't want to pay you for that anymore.
It's like, well, fuck this.
What am I doing this for then?
Don't you think?
Just that there's a real love of the craft of being a CEO.
Maybe that's what keeps you going.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I see what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you guys are literally responsible for us still being on the airs.
The shareholders.
Yes.
So thank you very much for doing that.
We try and give some of that love back every week by individually shouting you out.
We go to a lot of effort, so much effort, in fact, that we spend most of your money
on a device, on a computer program called the Unplanned Title Alternator, just to make
it absolutely fair.
Yeah, you were just saying it means a lot to us that we get to do this for
a living and that people enjoy and
appreciate the show enough
to chip in. But those are just mere
words. And that only goes so
far. And so what
better way to really show our appreciation
than by the physical manifestation of a
large device that we
cart to other cities, both in Australia and around the world manifestation of a large device that we cart to other cities,
both in Australia and around the world.
We have to spend thousands of dollars of our own money refurbishing it
and getting the software updates.
I'm, of course, talking about the unplanned title alternator,
the way that keeps it fair for us, reading out names every week.
It's when you see that old footage of uh you know you
see that old footage of computers in the 70s and they go oh you know what you what you've got in
your iphone today this is this is how big of a machine it had to be in the 70s and they'll show
a computer the size of a room yeah well that's where they're still at with the unplanned title
alternator um technology they're still at that stage of the computer filling up a full room.
The unplanned title alternator fills a room, but 40 years time, that's what the iPhone will be.
Yeah.
You know, people will be saying, you know, the technology.
Oh, right, right.
This unplanned title alternator used to take up a whole room.
Yes.
And now it fits in your hand.
Yeah.
But we're decades away from that.
Now just several hundred names can fit in like an iPhone-shaped device.
But back then.
Yeah, several hundred.
Yeah, yeah.
A huge number.
Yeah, yeah.
You could read any number of these that you want.
At this point, just so you know, for people that subscribe at home,
your name is about six foot long inside this computer, I think, at the moment.
Yeah.
So thank you very much for being part of that and being jam-packed in the computer um and i guess it's time to uh
read out the first one this week can i ask a question quickly before we begin sure well okay
but it might cut down the amount of uh names we read this week that's a risk i'm willing to take
okay um it's been a while since we've heard from the adjudicators. Yes, it is.
They haven't really bothered us for a while.
Nothing.
Are they like, do they just trust us now?
Well, I assume so.
I mean, they're really only, I mean, there's not a lot of, you know,
lottery draws where you see one of the guys stand up and go,
no, 37, that's not correct.
You're right.
It's almost like anything could be getting by them.
Yeah. And then just having no idea. What are you complaining about?
You know, like your plane going smoothly.
Like you don't notice it when it's all going smoothly.
So don't, you know, don't, you know, touch wood that we never hear from the adjudicators
because that could be a fucking disaster.
Yeah, okay.
No, I just was wondering if maybe they, yeah, maybe they wanted to poke their heads back
in this week, but, you know. Well, I just was wondering if maybe they wanted to poke their heads back in this week.
Hopefully not.
Okay.
Hopefully they might come halfway through.
I mean, it would be an awful coincidence if something like that happened this week now.
I hate that gotcha adjudicating where they just spring it on you at the last minute.
Well, let's try and do the right thing.
And like I said, it's better if we never hear from them.
Yeah, I agree.
That means things are going absolutely perfectly.
Anyway, sorry.
Sorry for that needless deviation.
Yep.
Dare I ask, I mean, you're the one watching the clock.
I have no idea.
How many, you mentioned possibility of a reduced number of names
how many have we got
the time for now
well put it this way
it was looking at
double figures
but now
I don't think we have
time for that
wow
so like nine then
because that's officially
one less than double figures
well you
no technically you're right
yeah yeah thank you
but the more we talk about
the figure going down
oh right
the less time we have
so it's down to eight now.
Well, look, I didn't even guarantee it was at nine.
And I certainly didn't guarantee it was eight.
And now I would almost guarantee.
What are you guaranteeing that it's at then?
There's no...
Oh, I'm trying to shut this conversation down
because I can see on the computer and the time we've got,
it's literally going down as we talk
after how many names we have time for.
Yeah, right.
I know how time works.
I mean, you can see on the six-foot number
that's on our huge computer,
you can see how many names yourself.
If you turn your head slightly...
I've got my back to it.
It's the one LCD display that's on the computer.
Right.
That huge six-foot number just there,
that's the amount of names
that we can have time for now this week.
That huge one there. Yeah, that huge number.
That huge number right in front of you.
But this can't be right.
Why?
What does it say, Tommy?
I mean, we've mentioned
my new glasses. Maybe I need a new
prescription because I swear to God, my eyes
must be deceiving me. Put it this way.
That is not an s
that's not an s that's what i was confused about yeah right right we don't have s names left
we have to do the entirety of every person that subscribes to us that has an s
in their name it's yeah it's it's not um it's not algebra. That S doesn't stand for a number.
It's actually a number itself.
Well, I mean, I guess... Capisce?
Unless my grade one education is failing me,
I guess that means we're doing five names this week.
All right, then.
Well, let's...
You know what?
Let's...
I might need to make a backup of the...
I might need to print out the names this week
because the amount of rot we've gone on with,
I do believe the batteries on the unplanned title alternator
are about to run out.
Why didn't you bring the charger for the unplanned title alternator?
Look, that's a...
You know what?
I really didn't think that we would talk for this long
and it would suck that much.
Well, that is extremely foolish of you.
Yes, I know.
I know.
I would lend you the charger that I have for my unplanned title.
Oh, you have one.
But unfortunately, it's a different – yours has the – what is it?
What type of plug is it?
I don't know.
Is it the same as that one over there?
That one sitting on the bench?
Yes. USB-C? That? Is it? Yeah. Is it the same as that one over there? That one sitting on the bench? Yes.
USB-C.
That?
Is it?
Yeah.
Is it?
No, I don't think it is.
Okay.
That's a shame.
I didn't even know we had a backup unplanned title alternator.
Well, I've got an older one.
Oh, right, right, right.
Oh, that's the old one that we had before.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay.
All right.
Let's get on to it.
Fucking hell. Yeah. Right. Okay. All right. Let's get on to it. Fucking hell.
I love theatre.
So, thank you to Patreon subscriber.
Oh.
Carla Carroll.
Carla Carroll.
Yeah.
Wow.
The gal so nice they named her twice.
I love this.
That's a bit like if my name was, you know, Tommy Tim.
Right.
Kind of.
Right.
You know, Carol.
Tamina Tim.
Yeah.
Carla Carol.
I mean, that really is, it's like you take the letters from the first name
and then you sort of jumble them up, you mix them up.
Yeah, it's a little bit like that.
And then, you know, it's like it spits out a different thing at the end.
I love that.la carol yeah it's a bit um you know how like in the in the marvel comic books at the
very least how uh stanley would just create every character to have like the same first letter on
both their names what's that called again you hate it talk about it all the time but i can't
remember is it alliteration alliteration that's it that's it every character is like alliterated in that so that's she said is she is she a secretary at um the the fucking
daily bugle or right carla carol carol carol i love it i mean i'll be honest i'm in love
oh really yeah from someone who hated alliteration now you're in love yeah but this but this is like
fruity enough that it kind of
i do like it yeah it i do like the idea of going steady with a cartoon character yeah me too yeah
which one we've must have had this discussion before yeah we would have which cartoon character
would you smash well there's there's there'd be a there'd be a few i I mean, Veronica from the Archie comics. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Betty and Veronica.
Yeah.
She was part of my awakening as a child.
Okay.
Who else?
I mean, the obvious one is, what's her name?
Jessica Rabbit.
Oh, big time.
Yeah.
She wasn't a rabbit, though, was she?
She was just a person.
Like, that was her married name.
Well, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. She marries Roger Rabbit. Yeah. I guess she's technically a person, was she she was just a person like that was her married name well yeah yeah yeah she marries roger rabbit yeah i guess she's technically a person even though she's a cartoon that's what i found weird in that movie yeah it's like there's humans and then
cartoons oh yeah some of these cartoons are of humans yeah right i don't that kind of always
that kind of always bothered me right yeah that makes sense what happens like cartoons are a race
Right.
Yeah, that makes sense.
It's like cartoons are a race.
So they, in that, I mean, I haven't seen that movie for a long time,
so I presume you don't see them rooting at any stage.
No.
Right.
But surely they do in that world.
It's assumed that that's what's happening.
I think it's been a little while since I watched it.
I think it's kind of alluded to that they don't.
Oh, really?
Yeah, because I think there's a bit where Bob Hoskins' character is saying to her, you know,
what do you want out of a little rabbit like that?
And she just goes, he makes me laugh.
Right.
So there's a bit of an implication that they're not fucking.
I don't know well that's
the i wouldn't i wouldn't say that i would say that's just not her primal urge i know but that's
part of it but there's a i i don't know i kind of interpreted that as like there is other stuff in
there yeah yeah getting to that right um but hey good excuse to go in on a re-watch, I reckon. Right.
Just to make sure
that there's no rooting in.
Yeah.
Poor over the deleted scenes
on the DVD.
Yeah.
That's probably,
I reckon that's in my top five
of favourite movies.
Really?
It's a great movie.
I love it.
Wow.
I re-watched it maybe,
probably about two years ago
and it holds up.
It's really good.
Yeah.
I remember liking it. Is Christopher Lloyd the baddie in. It's really good. Yeah. I remember liking it.
Who was,
is Christopher Lloyd
the baddie in it?
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
And even from a technical
standpoint too of like,
for it being pretty old
and the whole thing of
cartoons and people
side by side,
being very believable
for the idea where,
for the time where
they'll make those kinds
of movies now
and they can't get it
to look realistic.
Right. That a CGI thing is get it to look realistic. Right.
That a CGI thing is interacting with a real person.
Right, right, right. But that's like they've got basically no technology.
Yeah.
And it still holds up.
Yeah.
I remember they did some good work with shadows
and the cartoon characters.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Betty Rubble?
Betty Rubble?
Yep.
Yep.
Betty Rubble from the Flintstones?
Yep.
I don't know if there's any more I don't know
You'd be
You'd have some more modern cartoon references than me I'd imagine
Here's my top three
Right
Locked and loaded, ready to go
Bebop and Rocksteady
From the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Okay, yep
And then the Billy Cart from Ginger Megs
Top three hottest cartoon characters.
Okay.
So you wanted to fuck a billy cart.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
So like a homemade sort of a couple of bits of wood with wheels attached.
It's like a kink thing.
So I lie down naked on the road.
Okay.
And billy cart kind of comes at me down a hill and just runs over me.
Oh.
Okay.
That's even weirder than what I thought.
So it's like a dom sub thing.
I sort of got it before, but now I'm starting to think it's weird.
What bit of it's weird?
Well, you're lying at the bottom of a hill waiting for a car to run you over.
That's weird.
Well, you're just describing the thing that I just said.
I'm asking you to tell me what's weird about it.
I don't know.
I'm not a fucking freak like you.
I'm still trying to work out if a rabbit fucked a woman. Wouldn't it be great talking about this exhibition and i'm saying it's all it's all new
work that i'm doing it's not going to be like the posters for this or it's not going to be stuff from
my instagram yeah and then people come and it's just every weird sex thing we've ever put on the
show illustrated it's just it's me getting fucked by a No, it's just you fucking different cartoon animals.
And you're not drawing you.
It's just you've posed for photos and then you've just drawn cartoon characters that you're rooting.
So you mean it... So it is Who Framed Roger Rabbit style.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's great.
Who fucked Tommy Dasolo?
It's me and the cover's me and you know the cab?
You know, what's his name?
The cartoon cab?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I'm not in it.
I'm behind it with my dick in the tailpipe.
All right.
Can you make...
Is there another room?
Is there another toilet?
Yeah.
Is there a dungeon?
In the disabled toilet within Kappa's exhibition...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you make a smaller exhibition called Who Fucked Tommy Daslow?
Well, I mean, I've got to put it to him because I can only...
You've got to sublease his space.
I've granted him the license to have a pop-up within mine.
Right, right, right.
It's not up to me to be auctioning off his exhibition space.
Right.
I highly request it, please.
I'll just ask him to make that one of his drawings.
You have a separate exhibition because it's its own self-contained exhibition because
it's got a door on it and everything.
Yeah, yeah, in one specific cubicle.
In the disabled toilet, in the bigger one.
So you've got a bit more room to move in there.
Right.
Both as an art appreciator and there's more room for you to flex your
creative bones so to speak. But I would feel a little
bad about like anyone that does need
to use the disabled bathroom for
legitimate reasons being unable to get
in there because all the
hoi polloi are in there.
Mona Lisa style like 10 deep
take getting out the iPhone.
Wow Tommy's eyes as he's fucking Porky Pig really follow you around the iPhone. Wow, Tommy's eyes
as he's fucking Porky Pig
really follow you around the room.
Now this is the thing
I'm looking forward to the most
about the exhibition.
I insist upon this.
I'm sorry.
It's nice to have your support.
Thanks, Carla.
Nice now that I've thrown a few fucked spanners into the works
that I can actually guarantee your attendance,
which previously I was only 50-50 on.
Thanks, Carla.
Thanks, Carla.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Harry Caddy.
Fucking hell, this is a great week. I know, isn't it? This really is a great week i know this really is a great
honestly i mean if i was to look ahead i would you know hope that there's some more to come
quality can be maintained yeah wow i think we almost lost this to i know poor poor battery
management this is making up for the emotional abuse I suffered within the main app. Yeah. This has lifted my spirits right up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm on fucking cloud nine.
Harry Caddy.
Harry Caddy.
Harry Caddy.
What do you reckon the family home was called growing up?
Oh.
See where I'm going?
Yep.
I get it.
The Caddy House.
Yeah.
Animal House.
I like it.
Damn.
That's very funny though
Like when
Not sure if we brought it up before
But like you know
People
People's
Family history
Going back to like
What they used to do
For a living
Way back generations ago
But it's always like
Ironmonger
And blacksmith
And stuff like that
Not
Not fucking
The cunt that took
Sand wedges out of
A fucking golf bag
Yeah yeah
Oh we gotta keep this In the family history But I guess How out of a fucking golf bag. Yeah, yeah. Oh, we've got to keep this in the family history.
But I guess, how old of a game is golf?
Is golf like one of those...
A couple hundred.
One of those things that's been around for...
Yeah, yeah.
It's like Scottish originally, so it goes back.
It's old school.
It is that old?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's old.
I mean, I guess it's like just looking out over a field
and thinking, imagine fucking just trying to hit a little ball as far as you can just over that hill.
Yeah.
I mean, that's classic.
But you don't, you know, you got Harry Caddy.
We've never got fucking Peter Golfer subscribing.
Like, Golfer's not a fucking surname, is it?
So it's weird that the Caddy is the name that's endured rather than Golfer.
Rather than Golfer.
Yeah. To think we've got to let future generations know that we once got the bucket of sand out
when someone hit a big fucking hole in the ground and said,
replace your divot, governor.
And you saying that we've never had a golfer subscribe.
This is kind of like the other week when we were talking about that mining magnate that we had subscribing.
Right.
The Telfer family dynasty of mines.
So, I mean, I guess golf on the whole is kind of a more upper class sport.
Right.
But, you know, the caddy, you know, they're carrying someone's clubs around.
Yep.
You know, so they're not the big earner.
So why don't we have golfers?
They've got the money.
This guy is basically a servant.
He's able to kick in.
Haz are over here.
That would be...
That's so weird.
And also, just have his first name, Harry Caddy.
It's like a vocal warm-up or something. Harry Cad Just have his first name, Harry Caddy. It's just a... Let's have his first name. Harry...
It's like a vocal warm-up or something.
Harry Caddy, Harry Caddy, Harry Caddy.
It's fun to say.
I imagine it's fun to look at.
You know?
Also, a guy with the same...
You know, it's set up the same way.
You've got...
Exactly.
You've got a Y on the end.
Yep.
You've got the double consonants as your second and third last letters.
And you've got an A as your second letter.
I love it.
And then you've just got another consonant at the start.
It's like a fucking duplicate almost.
The symmetry of this is beautiful.
Now this is a cartoon character name.
Yes.
100%.
Carla Carroll might as well be real life now.
Yeah.
Or like a fashion brand.
Oh, yeah.
I can see this being a thing where it's like,
you know, you travel or you see a shop where you're like,
I've never heard of this before.
And then you do a bit of a Google and you find out like,
this is some pretty high class shit.
And that's Carla Carroll though, yeah?
No, no, no.
I reckon that's Harry Caddy.
Oh, really?
Yeah, yeah.
I reckon Harry Caddy is like a sportswear brand that, you you know you go to a part of the world that you haven't
been before and it's like no it's huge here i say that is more of a bit of a ben sherman type
operation oh yeah yeah i mean that's still a big brand no no no but it's a bit more like uh
a bit more casual a bit more for the boys yeah yeah okay in english for the boys right you you might get yourself a little ironic uh union
jack uh uh vest i see what you're saying something like that yeah you might get yourself a little
flat cap there so you think carla carol that's like the kind of high class thing for ladies
mid mid and upper yeah yeah and upper maybe yeah yeah i mean you're still gonna sit at a shopping
center yeah it's not you're not seeing it and, you know, the Paris end of any high street.
You mean more like a sort of a Gorman kind of.
I don't really know what that is.
That kind of, that's a ladies brand, clothing brand.
I wouldn't know.
Not too, not too high up.
Yeah.
No.
But like still like it's nice.
Like it's known as a good brand.
Yeah.
That seems to fit that description.
Yes. And then Harry Caddy is...
Yeah.
For the lads, I reckon.
For the lad wear brand.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A lot of mods getting around in Harry Caddy.
Yeah.
Polo's done all the way up to the top.
You might be in Harry Caddy and you might be waiting for someone to try on their corduroy jeans that they want to buy.
waiting for someone to try on their corduroy jeans that they want to buy.
And then you're sitting there waiting in the changing room and you might flick through an old issue of Loaded as you're waiting.
Thanks, Harry.
Thanks, Harry.
All right, what do we got this one?
Fucking hell.
I know.
We have brain damage.
Thank you, DuPage.
I'm just hearing a name and going,
what kind of fashion label would this be? Honestly, I have brain damage. Thank you, Dupecha. Just hearing a name and going, what kind of fashion label would this be?
Honestly, I have not...
Is this a stacked deck this week?
You check the adjudicators.
I have not tampered with the machines.
But they're not here, so I have no way of knowing that.
They are here.
They're in the corner.
Oh, they are?
They're stuck in.
Yes, they're always here.
They're always here.
Yeah, you just don't look around ever.
Well, I'm fixated on that huge number.
Right, yeah.
That big S.
Yes.
Take it to Patreon subscriber Mike Steele.
This is real.
These people are real.
Mike Steele.
It really is.
I mean, honestly, it's like fucking Saturday Disney in here.
It's just, it's a real, it's a murderer's row of cartoon characters.
Do you know what I think?
Mike Steele.
Mike Steele.
Private detective.
Yeah.
Well, not private detective as much as this.
You know when you have like porn stars.
I guess they don't do it as much anymore, I assume.
Porn?
Yeah.
You know what porn is, right?
Yeah, you think they don't do it that much anymore.
No, let me finish.
Not literally, but...
Cut someone off mid-sentence.
Yeah.
What a foolish thing to have said.
Comedy.
You didn't wait for the full stop, you idiot.
Like in that movie, they had Jack Horner.
You have punny names about people's anatomy.
You know, stuff like that.
Oh, does that happen anymore?
I don't know if that would happen anymore.
That seems like a bit of an old school way of doing things.
I don't know if they still do that.
Probably.
And I guess, I mean, I thought for a long time that the era of people kind of knowing specific porn stars was kind of done right with
the proliferation of how people consume porn being yes free on those sorts of sites yeah but then i
was listening to something recently about a porn star that was that kind of put you know through
that theory aside like there are still like famous porn like people do still get attachment to like
one and there's those conventions and stuff you, where weirdos go and get photos signed
and shit like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I thought everyone was just, like, anonymous now.
Right.
I thought the era of porno celebrity was done for.
Yeah, I mean, it shouldn't.
I think people are not, I think they're not earning as much from, like, stuff anymore.
I think it's a lot harder to make money.
Yeah.
But, of course, with the internet, it's a lot easier to become famous.
So...
Yeah, yeah, right.
Yeah.
I guess porno stars would have Patreons as well, I guess.
They do, yeah.
Yeah, they must have.
Yeah.
You see, there's, like, a lot on Twitter and stuff...
Right.
...that are just like, hey, here's, you know, here's 10 seconds of a little vid.
Right.
But if you want access to the...
I'll put up videos like
every week or whatever yeah yeah yeah yeah right well what my point being is you see like there was
an old school uh porn star called peter north and so that was like a vague you know north as in
north pole or or he's he's going north as in erect um and look that's that's that's not it
couldn't really work out the meaning of that because I was like, North's like up.
Yeah, right.
Well, I would say that's even a bit of a stretch as it were.
But like there's plenty of punny sort of titled actors.
Like with it going down towards their penis or being a pun about their penis or whatever.
Yeah.
So like Johnny Cock.
Great pun.
Sort of. You know, Rock Hard. I don't think there's a guy called Rock Hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah Cock. Great pun. Sort of.
You know, Rock Hard.
I don't think there's a guy called Rock Hard.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Stuff like that.
I can't think of any of those guys' names at the moment.
But anyway.
But I feel like this guy, Mike Steele, I feel like he –
that's a name if you were trying to do like a parody of like a open mic comedian because it's mike steel
as in like you're talking about you're talking about the thing that you use when you do comedy
the mic and it's made of steel yeah yeah you know what i mean yep yeah it's like the porn star name
of comedy oh so yeah right right or it's even it's the name of the comedian in the porno.
Oh, yes.
Right, right, right.
So he does stand up and then he's backstage.
Right.
Like he fucks someone after the gig or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because it also does, it is a little porno in a weird way.
Like Steel, you know what I mean?
It's a very powerful kind of.
Right.
So in that porno with Mike Steel in it, he's on stage and he gets heckled.
And he goes, hey, look, I don't interrupt you at your work.
I don't come down and knock the dick out of your mouth down at the docks.
Yeah.
And then the person in the crowd goes, well, why don't I come and do that right now?
And then walks up and sucks him off on stage.
On stage.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then you're up the back giving them the life.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I wrap it up.
Blowing up at him when he comes on.
Someone else is getting their dick sucked for five minutes.
Right, right.
Yeah, due coming on stage right now.
Yep, yep.
That's Mike Steele.
Yep.
Yeah, what could...
I mean, that's...
I don't know.
Maybe that's...
I don't know if that quite works,
like getting sucked off mid-gig.
But what would the...
What's a legitimate plot of the stand-up comedy porno,
which surely exists somewhere in the world?
Well, I would say we just follow around Tommy Little
and just map whatever happens to him.
Yeah, okay.
I'd say that.
Yeah, yeah.
That would be a wilder porno than anything we could think of right now.
You know what it could be?
It's like so Mike Steele goes on,
does too long at the gig,
room runner,
you should have finished on time,
you know?
Then he's like,
how can I make it up to you?
Oh, right.
Then it's like,
you know,
well now this is somewhere
where I'm fine with you taking too long.
Right, right, right.
It'd be a bit of that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I guess that is pretty inside baseball. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I guess that is pretty inside baseball.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just this, that is very funny to do a porno that's set in a workplace
and it's like very specific.
It's all this stuff about the workplace that like no one would know
if they're not into it.
But people like that's like, you know, they made pornos about like Seinfeld
and stuff and it's like, what are you going to do here?
Like who's going to fuck who?
How are you going to make someone who, you know,
or I guess Jerry's going to fuck Elaine. But like what are you going to do here? Like, who's going to fuck who? How are you going to make someone who, you know, or I guess Jerry's going to fuck Elaine.
But like, what are you going to do with Kramer?
Like, all of a sudden the soup Nazi was rooting someone in that porno.
And, you know, it's like,
how are you actually going to get the sex out of these characters?
Well, that is a good specific example where there's only one female character.
So it's just Elaine getting fucked by everyone.
But I guess they would just, they would have a Jerry girlfriend.
They probably would set it around the time that George is with his...
Wife, girlfriend, whatever.
Yeah, wife that he kills.
Fiance.
Fiance, yeah.
You know, you'd probably see Frank and Estelle Costanza banging.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't they often take like the episode where George goes and sees his mum in the hospital
after she catches him jacking off?
Yeah.
So that's one thing.
You'd see him beating off maybe.
Or it'd cut to like a dream sequence where he's like imagining.
There's not too many pornos where you're just seeing a guy jacking his dick.
No, but you'd see like,
it'd be like him fantasizing while he's jacking off.
And the scene would just be like his imagination.
Ah, okay, that's good.
But so then when he goes to the hospital to visit his mum.
Hang on, are we working at a Seinfeld porno reboot?
Yes.
Yeah, right, right.
But so then you know that episode when he goes and sees his mum in hospital
and there's the woman getting the sponge bath in the bed next to her.
So then there would be something where he ends up joining in.
That wouldn't just be him observing it.
Or maybe it would just cut onto the other side of the thing
and you would just see them start fucking.
Or maybe your final scene was like a reimagining of that episode,
the contest, and they're all just rock hard, ready to go,
and they all give in and just have an orgy.
Orgy, yeah, that's pretty good.
Yeah, that's good. that's not a bad one.
Can we wrap this up so I can have some time alone?
Yes.
All right, thanks, Mike.
Thanks, Mike.
Thanks, Mike Steele.
All right, here we go again.
Wow.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Barry Honey.
Barry Honey.
Yeah.
Barry Honey, repeat offender
on the socials
this one has been
leaping out at me
for a long time
yeah
have we not done him before
I don't think so
no
okay
yeah
we have no way
of checking
no
no I really don't
do you want to borrow
some double A's
and maybe have a check
I'm pretty sure
I'm pretty sure
we haven't done this
Barry Honey is
such a good name
yeah
it's so good yeah this must be a pseudonym we haven't done this. Barry Honey is such a good name. Yeah.
It's so good.
This must be a pseudonym.
This can't be this guy's real name.
We've said that four times now this week.
No, the others I all kind of buy.
Like, they're good, but they're... Mike Steele?
Mike Steele I buy.
Yeah, weirdly enough.
Harry Caddy?
Carla Carroll?
Can we...
What sort of a week are we having where Carla Carroll is the most absolute normal name?
Can we try and...
We need to get all these people together.
The former Hanna-Barbera cartoon?
Honestly, like, we need to find...
If these people all live in the same place,
fingers crossed they're all from Melbourne and we can just, like, get them together.
We can get them together along with our Will Ferrell lookalike.
Actually, you know what?
Isn't, you know, in Seinfeld's movie Bee Movie, right, the main bee is called Barry.
Barry, yeah.
I don't think it's called Barry Honey, but that would be a good name for it.
No, I think his name's Barry Benson or something like that.
I don't know.
Barry Honey.
By the way, I just want to bring this up because I know that people will be commenting on it from their main app.
You kept pronouncing it as Will Ferrell.
Right.
And I think it's Will Ferrell.
Okay.
I just wanted to make it clear that I was aware that that could be one of those things that will probably drive someone insane where they're like, why is no one commenting on this?
Okay, yeah, sure.
Because in my head, it sounds like it's
your association is like pharrell williams okay and you're like starting to say that right and
then remembering that it was a different name every time okay i could be wrong but i think
it's feral probably is maybe i'm maybe i'm wrong yeah i don't know maybe this is the bit that's
annoying people will pharrell williams yeah yeah now that's a good character yeah yeah like like more cowbell but it's actually
good yeah yeah yeah it'd be i wish i knew more nrd songs off the top of my head but like one
of their lyrics but he's just like screaming it in the world for yeah yeah straight lines but
but funnier and not about rape yeah yeah not lines. What's it called? Blurred lines. Straight lines is a silver chair song.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, Barry Honey.
I mean, this really is,
this is a hard,
I mean, this is too good.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
This guy,
what do you say?
This guy's been to live shows
and he is a Everton supporter,
which is the crosstown rivals
of Liverpool Football Club.
And he's been very nice enough
to do a bit of gentle ribbing without being one of these
dickheads that goes over the top or anything.
Ah, really?
Knows the line.
Knows where the line is.
Yeah, yeah.
And also good enough to, as an Everton supporter, know his place.
Okay.
As in they're not that much of a job.
Right.
But very nice of him.
He came to a live show and gave me a pair of Liverpool socks, which I wore.
He'll be happy to know this.
I wore on the morning that I got up and watched us win the Champions League
a month ago.
Your lucky socks.
Yeah, so Barry, honey, thank you for the good luck there.
Good on him.
Yeah, you caused us to get number six in the trophy cabinet.
Thank you very much for that.
Barry is just an incredibly funny name.
It's weird that Barry hasn't been
outlawed as a name by now.
Yeah. It's just a name that's like
We talk a lot about this
about like kind of old people
names. Yeah. I think it's just kind
of outlawed itself. Right.
Where no parent now
in 2019 is going.
Barry.
Barry also sounds like an abbreviation, but for what?
Barrents?
Yeah.
There's no – it sounds like an abbreviation, but it's not.
Barry holds a special place in my heart,
and I suspect for a lot of people of my age.
Maybe you might not remember these.
Do you remember the old ads for Yogo on the TV that were all clay animated?
Vaguely, yeah. They were great. They would do like a new one every year or something and they were like these kind of like in the space of about two minutes like a full cartoon with like a crazy plot
with the yoga gorilla having to track down someone that's stolen all this yoga
and a recurring part of them was that there was this lizard that would be on the phone like he's
kind of like a wall Street kind of style character
where he's on the phone doing a big business call
and he's screaming at someone called Barry.
And then every time he's doing this,
he then notices in the background this big action scene is happening
and his car gets crushed.
And so the catchphrase of all of the ads is him going,
Barry, Barry, and then noticing that and going,
I'll get back to you, Barry.
That's a classic catchphrase from the schoolyard.
Oh, really?
So the name Barry, I mean, I've got to be honest,
I probably would consider it for a kid.
Right.
Just because of its attachment to yoga.
Also, I mean, one of the best childhood lunchbox treats going around
when I was growing up.
Right.
Is it still going around now?
Yoga.
Yeah.
I think it still exists, yeah.
Right, right, okay.
So that surprises me that you're not across Yogo.
Do you like pudding?
Yep.
Get a Yogo.
I think...
Get a Yogo up here.
I think it's...
I think it was...
I was a bit too old for it.
As in, I don't want to be seen buying children's desserts.
So put like some, you know, red velvet on the packaging or something maybe.
But I'm not buying...
What are you talking about?
You eat M&M's nearly every time I'm hanging out with you.
Yeah, yeah.
That's partially fair.
M&M's are fucking good.
You have the diet of a 10-year-old that's just gotten back from the Royal Melbourne show.
Yeah, it's not unfair.
I'm not arguing against that.
Nah, try a yoga.
I reckon you'll like it,
especially the ones where it's like the pudding in one side of the carton and then on the other side, it's got a little thing of chalk chips.
Nah.
You can like empty it.
You've lost me already.
Well, you don't have to have it.
I'm just saying.
Try the regular yoga and then you can like scale up from there.
Don't.
Not into that.
Not into that stuff.
Not into that rot.
No.
Chalk chips in stuff that's like almost liquid.
It's just like Oh this is nice
Oh what the fuck
There's a fucking rock in here
It's
I hate that
That mixture of textures
Open your mind man
No I typically do agree with you
Like a cold rock
When people get like gummy beans
And shit put in their ice cream
That I'm not into
The dumbest
That cold rock stuff
Yeah
Oh yeah
You've got cool ice cream
How about we just
Put in stuff that's nice by itself
And ruin both of them
Yeah
Nah
Well look it would be remiss of us not to go into this quickly.
Honey, where do you stand on it?
Oh, that's a good question.
Look, I've always been a bit fussy and I've never been a big honey fan.
I am into it, but that being said, I would go years without having it.
I very rarely ever have it.
You know what?
I'm way better now than I was growing up, but I'm you know I'm very I've always been I'm way better now
than I was growing up
but I was a very fussy eater
I would say you're still pretty fussy
yeah yeah sure
but I'm saying
I was worse
yeah
I've gotten better
yeah
I was
I don't know how my mum put up with it
so I'm
I'm
like I said
I'm way better now.
I'm very happy to be way better now.
That's crazy to me that you were worse.
Yeah.
I think I've only ever seen you eat about three things.
Really?
Yeah.
No, I'm not that bad.
No, I'm not that bad, am I?
I don't know.
In my personal experience, in the things that I've observed you eating,
just based on my own experience,
I've only ever seen an extremely limited palate.
Yeah, I don't know.
Look, I'm happy to be judged by others.
There's no use in me judging me.
I think I've gotten a lot better over the years.
But I love that thing of like you get onto a new thing where you just go, oh, my whole world's changed.
You know, I thought I hated this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was wrong.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There are certain things that I would be like a child with.
If someone said, here, eat this, I'd be like, no.
Yeah.
No, I can't do that.
Yeah.
I can't.
Why not?
Like a sandwich that my mum made for you.
No, I just – but that was obvious.
I told you why.
Yeah.
I was not eating bread, but –
Yeah, but you also said you don't like duck.
Even if you had have been eating bread, I think you may have turned –
I would have been – I would have eaten it.
I'm not that against it.
All right.
I'm like – you know, I'm not that bad.
What's an example?
What's a food right now that you just would refuse to eat?
Like a – I'm not a big fan of the texture of tomato.
Okay.
So if there's tomato in a sandwich, I'd be like, can we immediately take that out?
Okay.
If I, if I ordered a sandwich and it was up there and it said on the board with tomato,
I would immediately go without the tomato, please.
Actually, yeah.
I think every time I've had a burger with you, I don't think I've ever seen you order
a burger from a store and just get it as is.
No.
There's always a severe, a laundry list of moderations that need to be done.
There is certainly a take out the, I'd rather go without the tomato sauce.
Really?
Yes.
Wow.
Yep.
And probably whatever comes with it, a gherkin or whatever it is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's pretty much it.
That's the laundry list.
That's me looking to take out tomato and gherkin or whatever it is.
It comes with it.
So that.
There's your example.
Okay.
Yet, I do love a good tomato soup.
Interesting.
Yeah.
I am fascinating.
You're right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, you should be studied.
A lot of people tell me that.
Barry Honey. Well, thanks that Barry Honey Well thanks Barry
Thanks Barry
This is ticking along
Yeah alright
I've got to get to the gym soon
Yep
I need a fucking pump iron
Who's iron?
One of the trainers
Alright we've got one left
We've got one left
For this week then
If you've got to go
Well
Well I mean first of all
It's what the big number said
Big number S
Yes
S number of names
This is the S
Yep
One this week
Well you know
It's been a real
Gut buster of a week
With the names
There's been a real
I mean something in Sync what do you call it?
Synchronicity.
Synchronicity.
Is that it?
Is that the word?
In the feel of these names.
Yeah.
Hasn't it?
Don't you think?
I think so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, guys, if you're any of the people that we just read out, block your ears.
Some absolutely fucking ridiculous names for some completely fucking moronic people. It feels like. Okay, uncover your ears. Some absolutely fucking ridiculous names for some completely fucking moronic people.
Okay, uncover your ears.
Yeah.
It feels like all the people we've read out so far have been behind the wheel in the wacky races.
Yes.
Yes.
All right.
Look, and this fifth one.
And it can't.
Well, sorry to interject, but I was about to speculate.
Odds are.
There's no way we can keep this up.
Well, you would have said that after the...
Maybe the second one.
You've definitely said that after the third one.
Yet, we got the fourth one.
That's even less.
The odds are shrinking every time.
I know, but...
Look, look.
I'm going to have to say, as they say in the classics,
they've done it again.
Really?
Maybe if we had time to do the sixth one this week, we could have broken the seal.
Yeah, we would have broken the streak.
But I'm glad that we're not.
Yeah.
So the unplanned title alternator, it's, you know, it's something's...
What do you call this?
Do you call this fate?
Do you call this divine intervention?
Some weeks we have clunkers.
Some weeks we have five dud names.
We've had five entertaining names this week.
Yeah.
So that's just what it is.
Yeah.
All right.
Thank you to Patreon subscriber Clementine Comedy.
Wow.
I tried to warn you.
Clementine.
Clementine.
Clem Comedy.
Yeah.
Clem, Clem.
Clementine.
Clem, Clem, Clem Comedy.
What do you think about that?
I mean, first of all, let's talk about the elephant in the room.
Comedy.
Weird surname.
Weird surname.
I've got to be honest.
Like, sure, in any other week, this probably would have stuck out as being a bit peculiar.
This is only the fifth weirdest name this week.
Is that what you're saying?
But after it's coming off the back of Reggie Fuckknuckle,
or whatever we just heard,
this sort of just blends into the wallpaper.
Clarence Clitoris and whoever else was on this week.
Clarence Clitoris.
Now, I write this down.
That's going in the funny, fellas.
Clarence Clitoris has got to be in there.
You know what that is?
That's just a simple joke as you go in the post office and there's like a missing sign. It's Clarence Clitoris has got to be in there. You know what that is? That's just a simple joke as you go in the post office
and there's like a missing sign and it's Clarence Clitoris.
No one can find him.
Good stuff, everyone.
What if your Will Ferrell lookalike's guy's name is Will Ferrell
is Clarence Clitoris?
And we're trying to find him.
And it's like just a bunch of guys going, where is he?
And all the girls going, we know where he is.
What are you talking about?
Just to deviate quickly, I fucking cannot wait to see the response to that pic when we put it up.
Well, look, when you hear this immediately, I'll give it a day just so everyone's very much juiced for it.
Oh, yeah, chomping at the bit.
Because some people don't listen to this show for a day or two
before it comes out.
So I don't want to just have people's first thing they see on the Wednesday
go, oh, who's this cunt?
Really building the hype.
Let's set a – you should set like an exact time that you're going to put it up.
Right.
Friday morning, 9 a.m., Australian Eastern Standard Time.
It's going live.
Friday morning.
Friday morning, 9 a.m. That's. It's going live. Friday morning. Friday morning, 9am.
That's a full two days after the Eps been out.
Guys, line up out the front of Facebook.
Get in your sleeping bags out the front of Zuckerberg's house.
All you hypebeasts out there waiting for the latest drop from Supreme.
No, don't get too excited because then you'll be a little bit disappointed.
This is not a guy.
It's not like you're going to see a picture of Snow White and go,
that's fucking nothing like Will Ferrell.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just a guy that doesn't look like Will Ferrell or Will Ferrell.
Yeah, that's true.
I'm worried that I'm overhyping.
Yeah, yeah, don't.
It's just funny.
It is funny.
It's funny.
Yeah, it's a funny photo.
As you heard on the episode, fuck, Ronnie was in tears laughing at it.
So anyway, yeah.
I mean, the dream is the next drop of merch that we do is just T-shirts with this guy on.
That would be good.
That truly is the dream.
That would be good.
You know what I'd rather it happen is...
And then that's how we find him.
He just sees one of our listeners wearing his shirt with him on it.
I would love that it's a running joke that everyone that gets in a cab from now on
just tries to con the taxi driver into thinking that he's Will Ferrell.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And get a picture.
Or, you know, a picture and give a different name.
And so just all these taxi drivers are going around with all these stupid stories
about meeting these huge famous people.
I think it's better if it's all Will Ferrell.
Yeah, yeah, okay.
Then that doing the rounds in like,
you know, the taxi networks of them going,
yeah, yeah.
How fucking often is this guy in Australia?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, great, great.
All right, thanks Clementine.
Sorry Clementine,
sorry we can't, you know,
chew in on that one a bit more
but like I said,
any other week it would have stuck out
but, you know,
we're just a bit clapped out at the end of this.
Just a garden variety name at this point.
This week, yeah.
