Starting point is 00:02:30 all from other places. No, but I mean in comedy. Well, I'm a Nepo baby. My parents were in the biz, so I grew up here around comedy.

Starting point is 00:03:04 Yeah. Did you just say Tommy Daslow falling out of her cunt? Yes. Yeah. Like hardcore pornography. And Tommy Daslow falling out of her cunt. Yeah. Yeah. Did you just say Tommy Daslow falling out of her cunt? Yes. Yeah, just clarifying. Falling out of, let's be clear, Dame Edna's cunt. Yeah, yeah. It's a great line.
Starting point is 00:03:18 That's such a punk band. That's a Queensland punk band name from the mid-90s. Dame Edna's cunt. Dame Edna's cunt. Fuck yes. From the mid-90s. Daymendous cunt. Daymendous cunt! Fuck yes. I love, it's just such a horrid image to say falling out as well, not sliding out or squirting out, like it's falling out. I mean, even the smallest baby is still pretty sizable, you know,
Starting point is 00:03:44 just that's a loose, that bloke's got a loose cunt. That bloke in drag has got a loose cunt I keep picturing your face for some reason you go out and you're all confused yeah you would be
Starting point is 00:03:52 no wonder he fell out of a man's coat yeah I was expecting the doctor to pick me up and slap me not to come tumbling out of there
Starting point is 00:03:58 mid-coitus while my dad Norman Gunston is fucking giving her one oh man this is a good start that'd be a good opener opener for like you get up on stage While my dad, Norman Gunston, is fucking giving her one. Oh, man, this is a good start. That'd be a good opener for, like, you get up on stage and go, I know what you're thinking.
Starting point is 00:04:13 I look like Norman Gunston fucked Dame Edna and I fell out of her cunt. And then you go, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. Yeah. That would be good to see how many people react to that by, you know, know going the audience go yeah yeah he does look like that yeah yeah yeah and i'm am i am i just dressed how i am now or am i am i kind of tricking it up a bit am i wearing like the dame edna wig i would i would i would i would have like a bit of a comb over going yeah but then wear some like nice like dame edna style
Starting point is 00:04:43 flamboyant glasses yeah Just subtle, just subtle. I just like the single sentence. I know what you're thinking. Oh, this guy fell out of Dame Edna's gun. I just think keep it straight. You know what I mean? You didn't mention the Norman Gunston. This guy fell out of Dame Edna's gun.
Starting point is 00:04:58 It's sort of an old stand-up trope of like, I know what you're thinking. I look like a cross between this and this. But that's funny if you dress up as Dame Edna and then go, I know what you're thinking, I look like a cross between this and this. But that's funny if you dress up as Dame Edna and then go, I know what you're thinking, I look like I fell out of Dame Edna's car as you're completely dressed as Dame Edna. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:14 It would also be funny... And you're wet. I was going to say, to come up and you're not, you're just naked and wet. Yeah. I know what you think I look like. With the glasses on. If I'm in the costume
Starting point is 00:05:25 people aren't people are thinking like we weren't thinking you fell out of a cut we're thinking you just look you just dressed up we're thinking
Starting point is 00:05:31 why is this man dressed up like Dame Edna at this comedy show fuck I haven't seen I know what you're thinking in a little while it's such a just a time
Starting point is 00:05:39 on a trip of comedy yeah that is a good one I know what you're thinking I know what you're thinking I remember trying like because a lot of especially with new comics we'll try and mess with the format of. I know what you're thinking. I know what you're thinking. I remember trying, like, because a lot of, especially with new comics,
Starting point is 00:05:46 we'll try and mess with the format of it and I know what you're thinking and I remember doing that. Like, I remember getting up. I can't remember exactly what I said, but I was like, I know what you're thinking. This guy looks terrible.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I didn't really know. It doesn't work because comics know what the original is to message, but audiences are like, yeah, you've never listened to stand-up comedy before. We're happy to hear about airline food. I remember when we started that I used to do a lot of bits about having a kid that were very run-of-the-mill, and then you started getting up after me going like,
Starting point is 00:06:17 I've got a kid, yeah, he vomits slime, and he's like a weird creature, and he screams at night. The kaleidoscope it's not so fucking out there i remember that was a bit i used to do i'd talk about my kid and i was like you know i it's hard raised a kid like how i remember saying like how old is too old for when they start talking you know like my kid like he started talking at like three days but he only says maggots yeah and i was like and then i'm a single parent obviously because he ate the mum yeah it's like when he came out he started eating it straight away and then i'd get up
Starting point is 00:06:48 obviously yeah yeah and then i got to get up afterwards and go anyway my son's a kindy and just do regular bloody kids man it's crazy yeah he says the craziest things there's a there's a well-known comedian in this town that used to say out loud, oh, you know, it wasn't his bit, but he used to say to other people, yeah, my kid's really intelligent and I have like full conversations with her at six months old and we were just like discussing things. I'm like, I haven't got a kid yet, so I don't really get it. But even me, I'm like, that sounds like fucking bullshit and you sound mentally unwell to believe that that's what's happening.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Yeah, if that is happening, there's something wrong. Like that's not a good sign. Yes, yeah, yeah. Quarantine your house. Yeah, yeah. If you're going to lie, you've got to at least wait until they're at school, and then you can tell people like, oh, he got, you know, ducks of his prep class or something like that. Or he killed a duck.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Yeah, that's a cool story. Or he stomped a duck to death. Stomped a duck. Yeah, my six-month-old killed a duck. That's Yeah, cool story. Or he stomped a duck to death. Stomped a duck. Yeah, my six-month-old killed a duck. That's cool. That's a cool story. That's a better, that's a funnier story
Starting point is 00:07:49 than having conversations with it. Yeah. And its eyes went all red. Like when it killed this duck and it looked at me and its eyes were all red and it smiled. And that's your opening bit
Starting point is 00:07:56 and you say it real panicked. Like, hey guys, sorry, just this happened today. My kid, like it choked a duck and like crushed its head. How old is your kid supposed to be when it kills its first duck?
Starting point is 00:08:05 Like mine's six months. Is that too young or too old? Yeah, I know what you're thinking. I probably came out of Damien's gut. And how would your slime baby bit go in Brisbane at the Sit Down Comedy Club? I don't know. Not well.
Starting point is 00:08:20 It would go well because I would do it for ages. Like I would go like, oh, would ask i would do it for ages like i would go like oh you know people always worry about you know like they i i have this i i continue the bit and i say you know it's it's common for parents to have thoughts about their kids like harming their kids or whatever you know like psychiatrists say that you know it's common for people to have like post natal depression or whatever but i've tried like i've tried to kill it i've tried many times it just gets stronger like yeah yeah which is surprising because my first four kids they died like like this is good stuff this sounds good i reckon it's not a bad bit it was just bad in the hands of
Starting point is 00:08:59 a new comedian who was like oh hey guys yeah yeah i know what you're thinking you're thinking the world has caught up with this bit yeah yeah I know what you're thinking. The world has caught up with this bit. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, this man has definitely tried to murder his kid. And you're right. All four kids fell out of Dame Edna's cunt. That's why I had to kill them. You can actually get away with attempted murder if it makes your kids stronger.
Starting point is 00:09:21 The cops are like, well, you've actually done it a favour. It's absorbed that power and now it's stronger. It's absorbed the power and now he's stronger. Yeah. Like the cops are like, well, you've actually done it a favour. It's absorbed that power and now it's stronger. It's absorbed the power and now he's seven feet tall. Yeah, I've just got to keep trying to kill him and then he'll be a world weightlifting champ. If I try to kill my kid enough times.
Starting point is 00:09:34 That's how I got him into the Olympics. By trying to kill him repeatedly. Why is your kid 30 foot tall and massive? Yeah. Funny story. I've been trying to kill it all its life. All the trouble started when I fell out of Damon
Starting point is 00:09:48 his cunt and then I just yeah you know nah I'm gonna do it I'm gonna I'm gonna give this a try I reckon you should I like that I've got
Starting point is 00:09:57 that's my opener and then I've just now got to do the whole rest of the gig in the Dame Edna get up covered in slime
Starting point is 00:10:03 for one 10 second bit at the start of the song. Man, I would love you forever if you do this. But also, like, all the other material should be really bland. Yeah. Like, the blandest jokes you can think of, just, like, talking about, I don't know, how, like, men on bucks parties versus women on hens parties. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Just real, like, real club. Middle of the road. Middle of the road. Middle of the road. PG rated. I don't do this just at like an open mic or anything. I wait until I just get
Starting point is 00:10:30 some like massive opportunity. Like I get the gala. Yeah. Righto. I'm debuting the Dame Edna. The Dame Edna's
Starting point is 00:10:38 gun. Hang on. Let's base this story in some form of reality. Let's just say it's an open mic. I just sit. I wait. I wait for something really big that I don't want to fuck reality. Let's just say it's a no-brainer. No, no, I just sit. I wait. I wait for something really big that I don't want to fuck up.
Starting point is 00:10:48 I want to go out on a limb and say, I think if you email whoever you need to email, at the comedy festival or whatever, and say, hey, I know that you don't just give the gala to anyone. Well, I don't know. I've seen a lot. But like,
Starting point is 00:11:03 it's a tough selection process. If I do the gala, I will come out all wet and say, I just fell out of day and I'm in this cunt. You'll get an email reply within 30 seconds
Starting point is 00:11:11 saying you're in. Yeah. And you've got as much time as you need. Maybe not saying you're in. I think I'll get a reply at the very least. I won't just be being
Starting point is 00:11:20 put in the spam folder. Yeah, it'll be an automated one. We're out of the office right now. We're out of the office and you're out of comedy right now. I don't know. Dropping Dame Edna's name, I mean, they did take that bloke's name off their award.
Starting point is 00:11:33 So I don't know if that's like such a good in anymore. Yeah, but I kind of spin it as like I'm sort of doing this in protest of the horrific things that Barry Humphrey said over his lifetime. I just like the conversation after the gig. You know how comics do that where they're like, yeah, I don't know if it was covered in slime.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I don't know if it's working. It's a bit working. Did they see the slime? Could you see the slime? Yeah. Was it too much slime? It's sort of like they pull back. They pull back, right?
Starting point is 00:11:56 It's just naked covered in slime. Did you see that bit where I said I fell out of Damon's cunt? Did you see that bit where I said I fell out of Damon's cunt?
Starting point is 00:12:02 Yeah. I was covered in slime. Did you see it? where I said I fell out of Damon's cunt? Yeah, yeah. And I was covered in slime. Did you see it? It was a ride. Yeah, yeah. Oh, they put me on first. They should have put me on in the second bracket when the audience was warmed up.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Because it's very hard to go, the first thing they see is I fell out of Damon's cunt. Not a very sophisticated audience. They didn't really know who Damon was. It'll go better on the actual night, I reckon. It would actually go well in America. I think if you take it over to America, because they know who Damonmender was it'll go better on the actual night I reckon it would actually go well in America I think if you take it over to a man
Starting point is 00:12:26 because they know who Daymender is in America oh as a reel it's gonna pop yeah it'll pop as a reel it'll make a great clip
Starting point is 00:12:32 yeah I'm coming in with the tripod and the full rig old school Melbourne comedian no one in Melbourne gets this joke
Starting point is 00:12:40 about me falling out of Daymender's gun I'm moving to London they'll get it the Edinburgh fringe the free fringe at 10am that's the real that's where this joke about me falling out of Dave Middleton's car. I'm moving to London. They'll get it. They'll get it. The Edinburgh Fringe. The free fringe at 10am. That's the real, that's where this joke's really going to come from.
Starting point is 00:12:50 This joke will go well at Scottish breakfast time, I reckon. That's the problem. When you're eating your beans. I've had that conversation with someone. What's his fucking name? The Clown. He's awesome. I can't think of it now.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Does a Spanish fuckboy? Does heaps of... Yeah, anyway, he's standing backstage, pants, crop top, covered in glitter, spiked up hair going. And he's like, yeah, the show just isn't working how I thought it would. And it's just so crazy. I'm like, fuck him.
Starting point is 00:13:18 What is his name, man? Yeah, I know who it is. We don't need a name in. He was on Magala this year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, I'm not saying he's awesome. He's actually really good. But I can't think of his fucking name.
Starting point is 00:13:26 But yeah, he's just backstage. He's like at the crop top, a little fake tits. And he's like, it's just not strong enough or something. I'm like, dude, I can't have this conversation. Yeah, that level of commitment to then have it not go well. He's got fake cum on his shoulder. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Like this, you know, like, I'm interested in that. Yeah. Well, guys, we're talking about the arts and being in the arts. Oh, yeah. So a friend of mine, we've talked a little bit on the pod. A little while ago I talked about one of my screen print artworks that my friend had and then broke up with his partner and moved everything out of the house and left the print behind.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Another friend of mine has one of my prints. And we talked about how that was cursed. It was cursed. Yeah, because we knew other people that had the same print that had broken up. Yeah, Brett Blake. Yeah, yeah. Including. So a different artwork, not the cursed one,
Starting point is 00:14:16 but from the same little run of them that I did. A friend of mine bought a house recently, and she's a very supportive friend. She has one of these artworks, and when she moved into the new place, she messaged me. She was very excited. artworks and when she moved into the new place, she messaged me. She was very excited. She's like, I just wanted you to know your artwork was the first thing I hung up in the new place.
Starting point is 00:14:30 I'm like, oh, that's so nice. And I finally got the chance to go around there the other day and see her place and see where my artwork was hung up. Now, I'll show you guys. You can describe this photo. That's where my artwork is displayed in her house. Yeah, covered so it can't be seen.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Completely covered by a plant. So just sitting there, plant right in front of it. But also like in the most, almost obnoxious way, it's like the plant has been positioned so one big leaf is covering. Yeah, there's nothing around it. There's like plenty of extra space. The plant is covering no other aspects.
Starting point is 00:15:03 The plant could be moved. Exactly. 30 centimetres and plant could be moved. Exactly. 30 centimetres and that would be fine. It's a direct attempt to block your art. It actually feels like that plant grew an extra leaf because it didn't like your picture. Yeah, exactly. You know when you see a flower that sort of grows sideways
Starting point is 00:15:17 to try and get more of the sun? That looks like it's on purpose grown a leaf to cover up your artwork. It's sitting at a very unnatural angle. It does not look like it's meant to be that way. You could say that it's because your artwork is like the sun. Yeah. It's nourishment. Your artwork is...
Starting point is 00:15:34 I've just got to point out, there's a fucking... I don't know if people can hear this, but someone is ripping up the road outside my... And they're in this giant truck and they're eye level with us. Yes. And they're just slowly going past. Yeah, yeah, yeah. These two construction workers in this big truck.
Starting point is 00:15:50 And there's asphalt going fucking everywhere. Yeah. Anyway. Yeah. So, yeah, great bit of support from my friend there. Just completely obscure. And, like, I'm standing there and i'm like is she done this to be funny i'm like and then afterwards she's like yeah what do you what do you think i'm like yeah
Starting point is 00:16:09 the place is great i don't don't know if i love the placement of my artwork and she's like i hadn't even noticed i'm like wow she's like what do you think any any like uh thoughts about like stuff i could move around i'm like yeah the plant could go literally anywhere else all the picture yeah all the picture either one of them. They don't need to be right on top of each other. She's like, no, I like it there. The fact it wasn't a joke is crazy to me. I mean, I just think this is a joke.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Because that is a funny thing to do to someone. Like, they give you something and then you, like, just hang it in the toilet or whatever. Or put it in the toilet bowl. Like, sort of, like, just, like, line the toilet bowl with it. Yeah. It's their artwork. They can do what they want toilet bowl. Yeah. Sort of like just line the toilet bowl with it. Yeah. It's their artwork. They can do what they want with it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:49 I'm going to do a new piece that's me falling out of Dame Edna's car. There you go. Now that the plant's there, I know that the rest of the wall is clear. Do it bigger than any plant. I honestly can't stress this enough, though. I don't want any of your listeners to take this as a flippant comment. Someone out there surely does art and graphic design. I really want to see hardcore pornography of Norman Gunston and Dame Edna having sex.
Starting point is 00:17:15 I think it needs to happen. We can make this like a colouring competition or something. Yeah. Let's just solicit this from anyone who's in any way vaguely artistic can't you like ai can't can't ai do this bullshit ai it doesn't let it doesn't let you oh really like you go into ai and you're like oh can you like can you write a joke about ham sandwiches and they go sure and it's like okay cool can you write a joke about you know killing peter dutton and it's like i'm sorry i'm not allowed to do stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:17:45 Oh, really? And so if you go on there and say, can you make a picture of Dame Edna in space with a kitten? It'll be like, yeah, cool. But if you go, can you make a picture of Dame Edna, cunt, splayed, Norman Gunston, cock, throbbing. I think it just calls the cops for you. If you said Norman Gunston making love to Dame Edna,
Starting point is 00:18:06 I think that'd be a work of art. You'd have to do... I think it's the specific language you're using is raising some... But also, there's... Because here's the thing about AI, right? You think it's splayed cunt? It's splayed cunt. I'm with the AI on this one.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Yeah. But people talk about AI based on what it can and can't do. But the problem is, as a punter, as a viewer, as a listener, whatever, as a consumer of art, if AI does make porno of Dame Edna and Norman Gunston, I don't care. Because I'm like, yeah, cool, AI can do that. It's like someone telling you their dreams, right?
Starting point is 00:18:43 When I'm looking at porno of Norman Gunston and Dave Medina, I want to think about the artist who created it. I want to think about a human being making it. And that's what gets me horny. And that's what gets me off. When I'm having a masturbation to Dave Medina and Norman Gunston. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, you want to think of a real human that you can masturbate.
Starting point is 00:19:06 There's a real human that's done this, that's made this. Because then you're thinking if it's graphic enough, they probably got horny while they were doing it. Yeah, exactly. And that's exciting. And there's like three levels of horniness going on. And you can also look at all the little details and go, I wonder why they made that vein on his dick so big.
Starting point is 00:19:23 That artistic choice. Yeah. Well, there you go, guys. There's some good jumping off points for you. Let's get the entries. Let's get the submissions in. Greg, you can judge them for us. If someone does that artwork,
Starting point is 00:19:35 will you hang it up in your house? Yes. Like, I can't promise that it will stay hung up in my house. But I can promise that I will fight for it stay hung up in my house. Is there a... I can promise that I will fight for it to stay hung up in my house. Is there a giggy man cave? I feel like it's the whole house if you've been over there. I think the whole house has become a man cave.
Starting point is 00:19:57 No. Okay, I hate the concept of man caves. Yes, there is. My partner, she constantly refers to my office as a man cave. Oh, really? Right, right. But it's not. It's just where I work.
Starting point is 00:20:08 I'm where I do my work. What makes it a man cave? Nothing. All the dildos hanging off the wall. There's a big communist flag. There's a giant communist flag. Oh, there is too. There actually is, isn't there?
Starting point is 00:20:18 That's it. It's just a big communist. That's not a... Just with the boys on it, like Stalin and Lenin. Yeah, okay. Yeah. There's no famous female communist, I guess, is there? It's not your fault.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Interesting. Hillary Clinton. Oh, there we go. That's pretty good. So we'll get these Norman Gunston, Dame Edna pornos submitted in. Greg, you're committing. You're going to personally whack off to each and every one of them. And then whichever one makes you cum the fastest, that's the winner.
Starting point is 00:20:44 That's the victor and what's the prize the prize is all the cum I'll send you the cum no that's not possible I don't have cum left I don't have cum left
Starting point is 00:20:56 I don't have cum left some people can wear it lay yeah I know what you're thinking this guy has no cum left and you'd be right you were telling me that you said remind me to tell you I know what you're thinking. This guy has no cum left. And you'd be right. You were telling me that you said,
Starting point is 00:21:13 remind me to tell you about the road trip that I had with Damo. Yeah, remember that? Remember the big road trip? The one where we argued about Stalin. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Damo and I, I can't remember what was happening. Were we going to the comedy festival?
Starting point is 00:21:29 We were in Brisbane and we were going to Melbourne, right? Driving all the way. Driving. Oh, we must have been coming to the festival. Yeah. Either way, I lived in Melbourne at this point, and we were driving down, taking the road trip, going inland. Oh, no, we weren't going that far inland.
Starting point is 00:21:44 And so we're driving. Damo had a sore back for this drive. So Damo was constantly in his seat, reclined, staring at me. Like, side on. I was driving. I drove the whole way. Damo was reclined in his seat, staring at me the entire drive. Anytime you see someone in a car lying flat, it's like this is the fucking weird, it's
Starting point is 00:22:07 like Uncanny Valley. Yeah. Your brain almost can't figure it out. Yeah, it's weird. It looks fucked. I saw someone almost lying flat driving the other day. Oh, wow. Like full, like reclined way back and like literally like as if you're watching a laptop
Starting point is 00:22:22 in bed. Great. Like lying on his back and basically chin on his chest, driving along. It was wild stuff. We went to a wedding a while ago and people were camping where the wedding was and we slept in the back of my car
Starting point is 00:22:36 with all the seats down and a mattress on it and then we get up in the morning, hungover, we have to head off and my fiance's like, oh, can I just stay lying down in the back i'm like you can't stay like no and then like we stop at one point to get petrol and i come back into the car and she's just like crawled in the back into the mattress and he's like i just want to be driven home in the bed i'm like it's just so fucking dangerous like you're gonna die like something
Starting point is 00:23:01 bad is gonna happen it's dangerous and rude yeah and also i'm tired too i have to drive you have to be up the front with me and then she just fell asleep in like five seconds anyway like see it doesn't matter you didn't need to be on the fucking mattress yeah but yeah so damo's you're asleep in the passenger seat no he's not asleep oh eyes open staring at me yeah as he's lying down because he's facing me because that's the position of his back and also like we went into a servo at one point and I like Damo goes
Starting point is 00:23:28 I'm going to go into the servo and have a look around I'm filling up with petrol and when I walk into the servo Damo is in the middle of the service station lying on the floor what?
Starting point is 00:23:37 like on his back doing stretches he's going oh my fucking back I don't remember this I don't know like and I was like
Starting point is 00:23:43 what are you doing? and he's like I'm just stretching my back. It hurts. I stand by that. Yeah, that's not crazy. And he was doing stretches on his back. And then at some point, I don't know how we got into this,
Starting point is 00:23:55 we were talking about World War II, because, you know, there's two blokes in their 30s at the time. This is something I've never got. You think that people go, oh, you know how guys talk about fucking Rome or Nero or fucking World War II or whatever. I'm like, I've never had a conversation with anyone about war. Well, really, stick around after this. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:15 I'd love to have a chat. I want to hear about it. So we're talking about World War II, and this is the argument we got into, right? I still remember the specifics of it, and I want to bring this up again again we've since buried the hatchet damo said that when hitler invaded the soviet union stalin had no idea had no idea it was happening like thought hitler was his greatest ally blah blah blah it was like. It was, like, totally caught by surprise.
Starting point is 00:24:45 I said, and my argument was, he was surprised at the timing, but he knew war with Hitler was inevitable. Right. And that was the cause of our argument. And now, when I say an argument, I don't mean, like, oh, we were just arguing over the facts. Like, it got to the point where we were both kind of yelling at each other. one point damien got his phone out and i admittedly overreacted and i grabbed the phone i said don't look it up you fucking loser and i threw it on the ground and then we
Starting point is 00:25:13 didn't talk for like two hours and one of you's flat while this argument yeah yeah and and we weren't talking for like two hours just like actually actually both in rage. But Damien's also lying down staring at me the entire time. But also, you're nearly agreeing with each other. Yeah. I know. I've already forgotten what the point of difference was. It was semantics. It was like an argument of semantics.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Yeah. And then essentially... There's plenty of other things you could have argued about Hitler about. And then we went to Hooters yeah but I'll get to I'll get to that in a second that's true
Starting point is 00:25:50 but there's more there's stuff in between Hooters this is good storytelling I like knowing that Hooters is on the horizon Hooters is coming up it's like seeing a film
Starting point is 00:25:59 where they start at the end and then you get to figure out how do we get to this point it's like things are tough but there's this great moment you know what I mean I like you putting a bit of Pulp Fiction here so that we can forward it yeah start at the end and then you get to figure out how do we get to this point. It's like things are tough but there's this great moment. You know what I mean? I like you putting a bit of Pulp Fiction here.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I'm pretty sure, my timeline could be all fucked up, but I'm pretty sure that Damo broke the tension and broke the silence.
Starting point is 00:26:21 The bigger man. This standoff by saying, what would you do if I bare butt farted in your face? And I said, what do you mean bare butt farted? Like he's like pulled my pants off and farted in your face
Starting point is 00:26:34 bare butt. Yeah, point blank. Point blank. I like to imagine that that two hours where you're not talking, you're just like turning the hypothetical over in your head like, what's the thing I can say to get Greg back on site? Yeah, yeah. How do I break the ice?
Starting point is 00:26:49 And I said, and my response to if he bare butt farted in my face was, I would punch you in the face. Like, I would punch you. And then we got into another argument about whether that is an appropriate response to a bare butt fart in the face. And I said, a bare butt fart? Yes. Yeah, I think so. A bare butt fart? But if it to a bare butt fart in the face. And I said, a bare butt fart? Yes. Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:27:07 A bare butt fart? But if it wasn't bare butt and a fart in your face? I would probably punch you in the arm. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. That's a fair punishment. Yeah. It is interesting.
Starting point is 00:27:18 I think a punch in the face is fair enough. Yeah, bare butt in the face. Bare ass. I wouldn't even find it slightly funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If someone farted in my enough. Yeah, bare butt face. I wouldn't even find it slightly funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If someone farted in my face.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Yeah. I think it's pretty funny. Well, that's it. It's funny to everyone but the person it happens to. If you did that to Tommy right now, I
Starting point is 00:27:36 would laugh. And if Tommy tried to fight you, I'd hold him down and I would also bare butt fart in his face. Meanwhile, I'm going, I've definitely got
Starting point is 00:27:43 pink eye now. Yeah. So I can't enjoy it On the same level You're going Oh this is nearly As much time I fell out Of Damon's cut
Starting point is 00:27:50 As an aside This exact thing Happened backstage When we used to do a show It was me You Henry Stone And Sam Campbell
Starting point is 00:27:57 I had to mediate So I want to tell My version This thing happened What we're talking about So what happened was I was Are you guys friends Or not It's hard to tell my version. This thing happened, what we're talking about. So what happened was I was- Are you guys friends or not?
Starting point is 00:28:06 It's hard to tell. This is Queensland comedy. Yeah. We're colleagues. We are friends. You wouldn't last a minute in the asylum where they raised me. When we were doing a play, Damo, Sam Campbell, Henry Stone and I were doing a play
Starting point is 00:28:23 called Skills in Time, Got Damn Big City Dreams. And we're doing it in Sydney at the Sydney Fringe Festival. And there was a scene where I was on stage on my own doing Bush poetry. Great. I was doing Bush poetry. And it's a small venue. And there's probably about 20 people in the audience, if that. And there's a curtain separating backstage from the stage.
Starting point is 00:28:45 It's just a curtain and it's right there. Like it's, you know, it's like Damo and Henry and Sam are right behind me, just behind a curtain. And in a moment of silence while I'm doing my Bush poetry, I hear... And then, oh, fuck! And then, ow! And the whole audience laugh. And I'm like, what the fuck. And then, ow. And the whole audience laughed.
Starting point is 00:29:05 And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? And then later find out what happened was Sam was bending down to do something. Damo then bent over and farted in his face. And then Sam got up and punched him in the balls. That's true. And they were genuinely mad at each other afterwards. And I had to mediate because I had just recently been in a situation where I got hit in the balls with a cricket ball.
Starting point is 00:29:35 That's right. He thought he had ball cancer. I'm the only one that can understand this situation. No, but I just had been hospitalized for a hit in the nuts. Right. And I was like, I understand. You're the ball whisperer. Yeah, I'm the ball like, I'm like, I understand both
Starting point is 00:29:49 aspects of this. That's what I was trying to say is that I think a punch in the balls is an overreaction for a filtered fart. Yeah, right. I mean, you know what I mean? Filtered, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? It's like, come on, man, I farted on you backstage. Let's not punch me in the balls
Starting point is 00:30:05 Sam but Sam Sam's Sam's there was bigger things at play Sam was Sam was talking about how it was disrespectful and it was a power move
Starting point is 00:30:13 he's like it's like gorillas see that's how he saw it Sam thought that I was like trying to dominate him or something I just
Starting point is 00:30:19 farted on the guy backstage I know I see where Sam's coming from it's disrespectful it's rude it's disrespectful I mean I rude. It's disrespectful. I guess you're right.
Starting point is 00:30:29 In a way, farting in someone's face is a little disrespectful. It does show a lack of respect. It's certainly not a greeting. It's not a welcome. If you met Noam Chomsky, you wouldn't be like, I know what I'm doing to this guy. This guy's a prime candidate. He farted in my face.
Starting point is 00:30:44 I can't believe it. I mean, there's what's happening in the this guy. This guy's a prime candidate. He farted in my face. I can't believe it. I mean, there's what's happening in the Middle East. Yeah. And so, happy ending. Not that bit,
Starting point is 00:30:51 but you went to Hooters. Yeah. So we stopped at, I want to say the word Campbell Field or Campbell Town outside of Sydney. And we stayed at like
Starting point is 00:31:04 one of those motels where it's basically it was two bunk beds and then a pod that was the shower it was me and Damo just close quarters we were just next to each other
Starting point is 00:31:13 for the whole 48 hour drive and then there were two places to eat that were open McDonald's and Hooters and I went well we gotta go to Hooters like it was literally across the road and I was like I, we got to go to Hooters. It was literally across the road. And I was like, I've heard that they actually have real good chicken wings.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Hooters, and for anyone listening not from Australia, they're rare here. You don't see that many of them. Are they even here anymore? I don't think they... I've never seen one other than that one. The horse is one of the Gold Coast. That would make total sense. And is one of the Gold Coast. Yeah. That would make total sense.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Yeah. And we go into Hooters. And I've got to tell you, going into Hooters with Damien Power is really fun. Because the waitress comes up, she's like, Hey, guys. Damien's farting on girls' boobs. She sits at the table. She's like, hey, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:32:03 And we're like, yeah, nothing. We just want And we just got this It had been a long trip Yeah We wanted this buffalo platter Like it was like buffalo wings Like onion rings
Starting point is 00:32:13 All kinds of stuff Yep And there's like a few dudes around There's also like some kids there And at one point there was like a birthday Someone sang happy birthday. And like all the Hooters girls came around and all started clapping and going like happy, happy birthday.
Starting point is 00:32:32 But they weren't singing happy birthday. They were singing like their own version of a happy birthday song. In case they get sued for singing the original happy birthday. Yeah, because there was that big myth going around for ages that it was actually copyrighted to sing Happy Birthday. In case Mr. Birthday comes in, there's a bit of mystery shopping. Paul McCartney, I think, owned it at one point.
Starting point is 00:32:50 What? Yeah. Really? I heard it was an urban legend that it was never, someone said it was true, that it was like a copyright, and then everyone just stopped doing it. Oh.
Starting point is 00:33:02 But anyway, they were singing this birthday song for like a kid and all these girls were jumping around and i remember and then when the woman came back to our table going is everything okay i remember damo looks at her and goes what is this and she's like what he's like what what is what what's the what is what happened to you like i remember how you said it. Do you remember this? I do remember you putting up with something, but I don't remember what I... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:29 It was just like you were saying, what's the... I don't think you said the word, is this a sexual thing? Yeah. But it was like you were confused as to what we were supposed to feel. What's here, Dave?
Starting point is 00:33:42 Is there a strip show at some point? Yeah. I get that. I get that. I get that. It is a confusing place. Because you go in there, people are wearing very little clothing and whatever,
Starting point is 00:33:49 and you're like, oh, is this this sort of thing? And then it's like, no, it's a family restaurant. Stalin had no idea Hitler was coming. That is the funny thing about Hooters. It is ultimately quite wholesome. Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Like it's just, yeah, they're wearing, you know, they're wearing skimpy tops and whatever. Yeah. But that's it. That's the extent of it. And they're just really nice to you and like you say, it's just, yeah, they're wearing skimpy tops and whatever. Yeah. But that's it. That's the extent of it. And they're just really nice to you.
Starting point is 00:34:08 And like you say, it's a family restaurant. Yeah. The food's delicious. We stayed in this super sketchy street in Bangkok. And we went to Hooters one day. And we realized, oh, this is the safe haven in this street. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like McDonald's.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Well, you and I, when we were in Vegas, we were staying across the street from a Hooters with Nick Cody. And first night there, we're like, oh, we've got to go to Hooters. That's funny. And then we go and we're like, fuck, this is actually fucking really good food. And then we just went there like every night. Yeah, we went there every night. And we're like looking at other people going,
Starting point is 00:34:37 I can't believe this cunt brought his family here. And it's like, we've been here every night, by the way. The wings were so good. Yeah. Just walking in us again. Now I know what you're thinking. We were only perverts wings were so good. Yeah. Just walking in us again. Now I know what you're thinking. We were only perverts on the first night.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Now we're back for the food. I mean, you're on a dodgy street in Bangkok. It's like, come on guys. You think we're here for, there's many options.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Yeah. Yeah. And so we ate at Hooters and that was a big night. Well, this is a good mix of both of you actually now Damo
Starting point is 00:35:06 you're on socials you do you put your clips up and they go viral and all this sort of stuff I don't I don't have any of that sort of stuff
Starting point is 00:35:14 you know I guess me and Tommy don't do that stuff maybe we should but where's this going this is this is the closest
Starting point is 00:35:21 to anything I've ever done anything that's gone viral I've got a clip on Instagram at the moment that I just've ever done, anything that's gone viral. I've got a clip on Instagram at the moment that I just put up because I thought it's like we've talked about this sort of thing or it's in our wheelhouse or whatever. But for some reason, all these fucking hundreds of people have been sharing it. And it's literally from Thailand, from Copenhagen. I filmed a menu in Copenhagen in this restaurant where, you know, Thailand menus are renowned for there being like 85 pages worth of food.
Starting point is 00:35:50 You know, there's just so much stuff where you're like, how big is your fucking kitchen out the back? How can you have this many dishes? So there's one restaurant I went into where there's six pages of just mashed potato related choices. And it's just like you just page after page. Like this is just mashed potato. I love that. This is just mashed potato related choices. And it's just like you just page after page, like this is just mashed potato.
Starting point is 00:36:08 I love that. This is just mashed potato. Yeah. And it's like, and it's the own... Done like what, all different ways? It'll be just like, there'll be a big picture, go mashed potato with a bit of bacon. Oh, okay. Mashed potato with a bit of butter.
Starting point is 00:36:19 Right. Mashed potato, but they have to take a picture of each... So it's just different flavours of mashed potato. Well, just that and mashed potato with a biscuit next to it. Mashed potato with sauce. Yep, yep. But for each one of them, like it's classic Thai style, they have to take a picture of the dish.
Starting point is 00:36:33 So you're just wading through these. And it's like, okay, well, now we're finished with the mashed potato. Now just for the potato. And then it's like potato with bacon, potato with a biscuit next to it, or whatever. So I'm like, I'm just going through and you're looking through this big menu going
Starting point is 00:36:46 how do they have all this out the back when it's just like three quarters of the menu is just potato I love it it's good I love that they're like
Starting point is 00:36:56 that's I guess that's what they eat like white people yeah yeah yeah potato with with something potato with something else potato with something else actual quote from my fiance on the trip.
Starting point is 00:37:07 God, they do a good chip over here. She's just like, they just do them differently in Asia. They just know how to fry up a chip. That's all we want. Yeah. Good chip. I'd go to a restaurant that was just all mashed potato. That's it.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Yeah. Just done all different ways. Yeah. Fuck yeah. Open one. No, but it also hits harder, you know,
Starting point is 00:37:28 when you go overseas and you're like, you know, I'm in this place, I'm going to eat the local cuisine and then you eat a week of it and then you go, you know what would be
Starting point is 00:37:34 really fucking good? A cheese sandwich. Yeah. Oh, fuck. And then you have one of them and it's like, oh my God,
Starting point is 00:37:40 this is so fucking good. You need that midway meal where you reset yourself. So, what, this potato video that you put up yeah of the menu yes what it's it's popping off it's the only thing we've viral this is on on our dunham insta it's the only thing we've ever done that's got fucking some action happening yeah right it's like you see the stats and it's like it's every all the time if i check my phone there it'll still going. It's just getting sent around fucking hundreds and hundreds of times.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Yeah, interesting. That's the thing, man, is that like sometimes that's the depressing thing is you can put up a bit that you honed for like two years, put it up, it goes viral, you're like, fuck yeah. And then you see a clip of a dog taking a shit in a storm. I don't know if you've seen that, by the way. It's fucking awesome. It's just like, oh, and it's just like in a tornado or whatever but it's trying to take a shit yeah i'm like that
Starting point is 00:38:29 is funnier and better than anything i'll ever create yeah i mean that video in a way without having the production on it it is very tiktok like come with me as i go to the kopanyang restaurant where they have 40 different types of mashed potato that would be that sort of stuff is really popular yeah so without knowing it you've kind of stumbled on sort of like what what people are doing on their life that's the annoying thing it's like my my algorithm now because i'm constantly i constantly watch videos that pop up that are the most boring videos i've ever seen and i'll re-watch them trying to figure out what so what what what's the point of this video? Yeah. And now that's all my videos. It's just like people just going like,
Starting point is 00:39:08 here's a day of the life of an Instagram influencer. I get up, I have some breakfast. Then I have a go on the Instagram. Well, I'll see you next time for more videos. Yeah. And that's all my videos now.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Yeah. Just the most, you gotta have a burner account, get the burner account so you can watch all that dog shit and then you can curate your own one. I don't want to watch it anymore. I just want to go outside. Something's showing up that you actually have no idea
Starting point is 00:39:34 what you've done to make the algorithm show you this. I brought this up to some people the other day. I made the mistake of bringing this up to people the other day and I know this is going to sound like, know i doth protest too much but like genuinely i do not know what i've done to bring this up on my algorithm three times a day on facebook i'll get shown these like ai generated images of billy eilish with big tits wearing basically nothing and i was showing my friends i'm like i don't know what I've done to inspire this. And they're like, oh, yeah, you don't know what you've done.
Starting point is 00:40:09 I'm like, no, no, but if that was the case, if I was just Googling Billie Eilish big tits, then I'd be like, well, that's why. That's why it's coming up. Your Honour, we won't need the courtroom for too long today, I think, for this one. Well, get out of your head. Because you can't say...
Starting point is 00:40:29 I'm just saying myself out loud as I'm saying it, Your Honour. Because you say like, I don't know, you know, you're thinking, oh, he doth protest too much. Yeah, I am thinking that. You can't just say that and then... I'm not on my phone. I'm not on my phone looking up big tits. I want to know.
Starting point is 00:40:42 I don't listen to Billie Eilish. I don't talk about Billie Eilish. I don't talk about Billie Eilish. I know why. Because the algorithm now is just good at demographics, right? How old are you? 37. 37. You play video games.
Starting point is 00:40:58 You've got interesting glasses. And that's a big overlap with Billie Eilish. They just go, you want AI images of pop stars with big tits. That's what you want. That's what you want. And they know what you want. The algorithm throws at me a dude who shoots rats. You know what?
Starting point is 00:41:18 You know what? This is a great... The algorithm sounds like it's doing its job, I reckon. Because I reckon that's quite fitting for both of you. This is such a good... Okay, so it's like hard quiz, but instead of you going in and going, this is my thing that I know everything about, this is what the algorithm is serving me up.
Starting point is 00:41:36 This is what a program thinks that I am obsessed with. And now I just have to answer 15 quiz questions about shooting rats. It's like the... What's it called? The Rorschach test. The Rorschach test, except AI or, you know, the algorithm is doing that test on itself, looking at you and going, this is what he'd like.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Yeah, exactly. Can I ask, because I've been doing that a bit on stage. I've been treading the boards. Okay. I've been doing this bit about this this video that had that came up on my algorithm right this is a real video that i saw and i found it like gross and funny but some audiences are really upset by this like genuinely like they it can turn audiences right and it was a video i saw of a puppy dog trying to drink milk from a bigger dog,
Starting point is 00:42:29 but the bigger dog was a male dog. Oh, yeah. And it started sucking the dog's dick. Yes. And then the dog just started humping its face. So the puppy's sucking its dick and the dog is humping its face and then my heart will go on and starts playing. But like a child recorder version.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Hang on, hang on. Did you make this video? No, no. I just saw it. It just came up on my algorithm. Does Billie Eilish factor in at any point? He loves this video. He's shown it to me multiple times.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Every time I come over he's like, fucking dude. The little dog's dressed like Dame Edna. The big one's dressed like Norman Gunn. And I think it's fucked And like I think it's fucked Like obviously I think it's fucked But it's funny Do you have this saved on your phone
Starting point is 00:43:10 Or do you just know Yeah I do have it saved now Or I was going to say Do you just know exactly where to find it I have it saved now yes I have it saved on my phone And computer and a backup hard drive It is very funny
Starting point is 00:43:21 It is very funny But like there's Sometimes when I just describe this video, audiences turn on me. And I'm like, what? I'm just telling you this is real life. This is what's out there. What's going on out there?
Starting point is 00:43:35 This is what's out there. This is what's happening in the streets. This is real life. Yeah. This is real life. Guys, if you want to live here on planet Earth, you're going to get used to A dog Fucking a baby dog
Starting point is 00:43:46 In the mouth It's happening out there You can engage with it or not But that doesn't change The fact that it's happening You can bury your head in the sand Yeah But this is
Starting point is 00:43:53 I'm up here Speaking truth to power And just trying to Shine a light On the realities Of 21st century Because the reality The fact of the matter is
Starting point is 00:44:03 We're all the little dog And society at large And the corporations They're the matter is, we're all the little dog and society at large and the corporations, they're the bigger dog, just fucking us in the face. We think we're just suckling on the teeth, getting some milk, but actually we're getting drilled in the mouth. I just, yeah, I just, I guess I wanted to know,
Starting point is 00:44:18 is it... Yeah, was there a question here? Yeah, the question is, is like... What's the point? Am I crazy? Am I going crazy here? Like like i feel like no one else does the people not remember rotten.com i feel i can understand you describing that maybe people think you've made that up for you know that's like a bit in your show that you've just like invented this yeah which when then you're thinking like if a man has just invented
Starting point is 00:44:42 this himself we're in the presence of a really fast-up individual. You're saying that you've been saying this on stage. Why are you telling people that? What do you mean? Why are you telling people about the video? It goes into a larger – it's a whole larger bit that I talk about content. I was going to say if you're just telling them about it and you're like, they're getting really upset.
Starting point is 00:45:00 I'm like, I can see why. You're just describing a terrible video and then saying the end. But it's a funny video. Yeah. And I i've do you mind if i say this yeah carl he not only describes it he then does show it yeah yeah yeah it's a spoiler yeah no it's a spoiler but it's fine you get to see yeah you get to see it it's true i mean it's a big laugh yeah you would get more annoyed if you just heard about it and didn't get to see it. Like, you know, at some point today, I will be asking to watch it now. Yeah. It is worth watching.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Yeah. It's beautiful. Are they pulling back during the description? Do they like the video? The video gets a bit... The video is like a callback. Right. It's a little spoiler for my show, but it's fine.
Starting point is 00:45:40 The video is like a callback at the very, very end of the show. A callback is when... It's a montage. It's a from before yeah yeah it's like when you talk about something that's
Starting point is 00:45:50 already been talked about right earlier in the show like Dame Edna's cunt yeah yeah yeah exactly
Starting point is 00:45:55 so that's like a callback yeah yeah yeah exactly and it increases the comedic effect or something I guess because you'd heard
Starting point is 00:46:00 it already earlier yeah it feels familiar yeah it's sort of like the nostalgia effect, but in a more kind of condensed. And often in shows, comedians will end,
Starting point is 00:46:09 they'll have a callback or something to an earlier bit and it often serves as a big punchline at the end. Instead of screaming at the audience going, fuck you, fuck you, I'm the devil, I'm going to fuck you in the face. Yeah. Which you do in your show. It's a good bit. You can laugh if you your show sometimes it's a good bit you can laugh if you
Starting point is 00:46:26 like but sometimes callbacks can be seen as sort of cheap and easy but obviously not in this case where they're calling back to a video of a dog fucking another dog in the face exactly you either sometimes they're clever like sometimes sometimes you go wow yeah yeah like that's actually made me think you either die yeah you either die a call back or live long enough to see yourself pull out the stool. Yes, yes. Pull out the stool and whack on a good video that we can all enjoy.
Starting point is 00:46:56 What was that? The show's over, but here's a little video I'd like to show you of a dog. Can we bring up this? This is my favourite show title of all time. video i'd like to show you a dog like another dog's face yeah can we bring up this this this is my favorite show title of all time are you talking about can we can we bring that up yeah so obviously every festival and you guys would know this i reckon this this show title every festival obviously show titles get pushed around that people think are funny yeah show posters
Starting point is 00:47:23 obviously legitimate shows that are hilariously bad. What's your best show title? Of yours. Of yours. Violent Chaos, anyone? That's a pretty bad one. Sell Mum Into Slavery is pretty good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:39 Not as bad as the previous one, but this dude's show was called Glass Half Fool. Yeah. And it's him in a full pint glass half in it yeah and it says um may contain traces of nuts yep that's great and then a big stamp did no pc humor yeah okay did have a quote this guy's really funny dash my mom i feel like that could have been something like that going on I love when people put the like
Starting point is 00:48:07 ratings from a DVD cover on their show poster when they put like the R18 plus oh yeah oh that's a good one that's niche too
Starting point is 00:48:15 that's like and this poster was a direct inspiration for my slurps up poster ah right yeah it's brilliant jackets must be worn
Starting point is 00:48:23 and like so Heg went, or someone went and saw it anyway. Oh, is this the guy that had a Viking helmet on? Yeah. Right, okay. I know who this is. Well, I only know the ending, which is he's like, gets to the end of the show and he just shows a video. Well, the ending, this is
Starting point is 00:48:38 what I heard. You might know more context. I've heard from a few people that the ending was, he goes, alright, I've got enough time for one story do you want to either hear the story of why I'm wearing a viking hat
Starting point is 00:48:49 oh so that's an option he wears a viking hat for an hour and doesn't go to talk about it it's on the poster and then he's wearing it for the whole show and then he goes
Starting point is 00:48:58 or would you like to hear about the time I was in a porno and everyone's like well obviously the porno but but like, fuck. When's anyone ever going to vote for the fucking Viking? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I mean, I do want to hear the porno more, but in the back of my head, I'm like, I kind of would love to know why the fuck you decided to wear a Viking. Absolutely. And also, I assume we're 55 minutes in. What's been so good that's knocked out one of those stories? Exactly. Nothing, nothing. What I'd be
Starting point is 00:49:25 hoping is that they're actually one and the same story. Oh, yeah. He wore the Viking helmet in the porno. That would be clever. This is what we call a win-win. You know what's actually funny and smart is if he wears the Viking helmet all as an absolute ruse, gets to the end, who wants to hear about the Viking helmet or the porno
Starting point is 00:49:41 story? Everyone votes the porno story. He doesn't even have a story about the Viking hat. Yeah he's just got there to show up yeah yeah um but anyway so everyone goes to porno story and then he's like he tells a story about how he was in a like he was at a like a festival like a beer festival in germany or something not october fest like something or a music festival maybe i don't know and someone was filming someone was getting a blowjob in public and people were filming it and like it was for a porno and he goes and i was in the background he goes don't believe me i'll show you and then he goes he opens up his laptop but like hasn't got it queued up and yeah that's great so like has to like turn on the projector
Starting point is 00:50:23 sorry guys wait for the projector to warm up. And apparently does nothing. Apparently just stands there. Shit, I've got to download the driver. Then he goes, opens up his laptop, opens up Chrome, types in www.pornhub.com. He's got the website there. Hasn't even got a bookmark.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Then searches for it. Fuck. Then finds it and then watches it and then you just see a woman give a guy a blowjob and everyone's sitting there watching him watch them. With him out of focus in the background. And then you just sort of see him out in the background going like, ah!
Starting point is 00:50:58 And he does a thumbs up and then it's like, anyway, thanks guys. And he fucking didn't even get nominated for an award. Yeah, I mean, that is a stretch to say. And then it's like, anyway, thanks, guys. And he fucking didn't even get nominated for an award or anything. Yeah, I mean, that is a stretch to say. When you say, do you want to hear about me banging a porno, I mean, technically he's in the video, but if that's the end of it, you know, when he's there fucking around installing the driver
Starting point is 00:51:17 for the fucking projector, there's a moment where everyone's going, is it too late to just hear about the Viking helmet? Yeah, they're bailing out. This isn't going to be as explosive as we thought. That'd be great if it's like, oh, too late to just hear about the Viking helmet? Yeah, yeah. They're bailing out. This isn't going to be as explosive as we thought. That'd be great if it's like, oh, no, we don't want this. Can we get the Viking helmet story instead?
Starting point is 00:51:31 He's like, oh, okay. Jumps into his bag, gets his diary out, starts going through page by page. I've got to find where this story is. Logging on his net bank. It's like November 1997. I bought a Viking hat. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:45 There's the receipt, everyone. My point is how different is that to your ending? My ending? Where you have a dog fucking another dog's face. Is it that different? Yeah. Actually, it's better. That's you.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Yeah, it's like... It's better than Greg's ending. It's nicer. Because at least it's personal. Last half cool. I don't know. What would you do if I killed myself later today
Starting point is 00:52:07 would you feel responsible in some way I don't think any of us would be surprised I suppose I'd go down to the TAB and collect
Starting point is 00:52:15 my winnings yeah I'm not going to be like that was the thing like oh you know what I mean there's so many I'd be into the
Starting point is 00:52:23 chat with these guys like should I edit that bit out? It's pretty funny. Oh, the ep's still going up. I'll go and get my $105 from the $100 I put on, on the bed. Maybe a little bit at the start. We like to dedicate this to Greg Larson.
Starting point is 00:52:38 He sadly jumped into a fucking tar map. As a direct result of this episode. Yeah, we don't want to shy away. You know, it would be disingenuous to edit this whole bit out. As he always said, we want to speak truth to power. This is real life.
Starting point is 00:52:53 And then it just cuts straight to, Dame Enders, can't you be confident? You've got to be wet. People that weren't going to do those drawings before, all of a sudden, outpouring in tribute. Tribute, RIPI.P. Greg. Have me in the background with a single tear rolling down my cheek. Cartoon in the newspaper tomorrow of you turning up at the pearly gates
Starting point is 00:53:16 and the guy being like, wow, that dog really fucked you pretty hard in the mouth. With Tame Ender and Norman Gunston, who's not dead. I don't believe. I don't believe. I don't know. Is Norman Gunston still with us? Yes. Yeah. Gary McDonald?
Starting point is 00:53:33 Yeah. Well, he'll hear this and then he'll be like, oh, wow, one of my biggest fans has shuffled off this mortal coil. Beautifully put. All right. Well, we'd better leave it there for another episode of Little Dumb Dumb Club. Greg, you've got a big day ahead of you.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Won't keep you. We'll keep all this in just as a warning to young people that might get into comedy and think I can have a video with a dog fucking another dog in the mouth and everything will be okay. And we can see today that that's not the case. It's not worth the risk, guys. If you're listening, it's not worth the risk.
Starting point is 00:54:11 I actually had the thought, like, it would kind of be funny if I did get out. Like, if I committed. If I committed. Yeah. Best joke ever. Yeah, yeah. Greg rings us tonight.
Starting point is 00:54:23 When's that ep come out? How long have I got? All right. Damo, Greg, thank you for joining us. You've both got shows coming up? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When does this come out? Tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Tomorrow? Oh, cool. Yeah, you've got time if you're in Melbourne to see me at the Replay Festival. Comedy Republic, the 11th and the 13th of July. Your show's called? Revolting. So if they go to this, do they see the dog?
Starting point is 00:54:51 You've now gotten a spoiler for that bit. There's so many more bits. It's a great show. It's great. It's a great show. I do want to see the video. Yeah. And you get the bonus of the video.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Yeah. And at the end, Greg says to the audience, do you want to hear a story about how I went to Hooters with Damien Power? Or do you want to see the video that I made of a dog fucking another dog? And guys, I know that you've heard the Damien Hooters story now. So, you know, you've got to vote for the video. There's at least one surprise. You get to go along and see that in the video,
Starting point is 00:55:18 one of the dogs is actually Greg. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I suck at those things. And, yeah, I'm doing it in Edinburgh and London. So my show Revolting is on in Edinburgh and London. My first time doing Edinburgh Fringe. Probably, maybe my last time. I'll lose a lot of money.
Starting point is 00:55:36 So if you're in the UK, see my show in Edinburgh. Please, I'm begging you. I'm begging you. Go see Geggy. Yeah. And also, just a great, this is genuinely a good sales pitch for your show, is the people that are there going, yeah, maybe I might pay for a ticket to come along and see this YouTube video
Starting point is 00:55:55 or whatever you've got. Yeah. Yeah. And there's more videos. There's crazy shit in there, man. I say some wild stuff, honestly. No, I just go off tap man I'm also doing
Starting point is 00:56:09 the replay festival this Thursday I'll be at the art centre and then I'll be in Sydney doing my
Starting point is 00:56:17 latest show on the 19th of July and then I'll be doing what videos do you have no videos but I might have to chuck one in after this. Put the monkey smelling its finger.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Oh yeah, that's an old classic. So that video will be now my opening bit. So come and check that out. And I'll be at the Edinburgh Fringe as well with Greg. Well, not with him, but I'll be there and he'll be there too. By that time,
Starting point is 00:56:42 you'll probably have a fucking episode of Mr. Bean in the middle of your show just to pat things out. Yeah, it needs some patting. It really fucking needs some patting. We'll lose all the Australian-centric stuff. So for the Brits, I'm going to put in a full episode of Mr. Bean in the middle of my show. And I sit with the audience and watch it with them.
Starting point is 00:56:59 You know what I mean? Because we're all just people. You know what I mean? You can sit down and do whatever you want. Fuck, imagine doing this Jesus Christ He's a good physical comic Yeah
Starting point is 00:57:08 Isn't he Yeah Alright guys Thanks very much for listening And we'll see you next time See you mate See you mate And
Starting point is 00:57:16 They've done it again Bernie Well done You've really launched that Hit the showers Bernie Yep Hit the showers Get your dacks off Put your dick in the showers, Bernie. Yep. Hit the showers. Get your dacks off.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Put your dick in the showers with other men with their dicks. Yep. Cut a little hole in the wall of the showers. Yes. Spy on some of the sexy ladies in the showers next door. Oh, yeah. Is that a thing? It was in Porky's. It hasn't been a thing in film for a very long time.
Starting point is 00:57:42 No, not for a while. It's not that cool anymore. Back in the, you know just 30 years ago that used to be really cool it used to be really cool and the funniest thing you could think of to spy on a naked woman without her realizing yeah i remember i remember you know that being a thing in movies or whatever it is and then going okay so that must be like what happens when you grow up and that's a really good thing to look at. But like what's the end goal here? You're just looking and what happens then? Well, if you're young enough, just the sight, just a naked person in real life is enough
Starting point is 00:58:17 to titillate you. Yes. At age, yeah, 15 or whatever. Yeah. Oh, no, no, but like younger than that. I'm like, I don't, you know, why does everyone want to, you know, but what happens than i'm like i don't you know why does everyone want to you know what but what happens you know they're that far away you're not going to do anything with them i just i just i hadn't discovered the concept of masturbation yet
Starting point is 00:58:34 yeah it's a bit like people who love going to the strip club and it's like this is awful yeah look i agree uh i have yeah it's that thing where i'm i'm always like i i would get it if like you got to jerk off or something but you don't get to do that so the internet makes sense sitting in your room and jerking off over some movie makes sense yeah that's being at the strippers and and there being a rule like you're not allowed to touch anything yeah okay well that sounds bad yeah sounds like i'm gonna be very frustrated yeah I'm going to pay a lot of money for it. It's a weird concept. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Let's go down to the Spearman Runner right now and tell them what we think. And have a rotten talk. Go in at lunchtime and just see who's hanging out there. Let's go down and protest at the front with big placards. We should be allowed to tug our dicks in this joint. Yes, yes. Otherwise... We're feminists.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah, yeah. We want to show the ultimate appreciation for the female form. Oh, I think we've been too grubby off the back of this episode. Greg and Damo, both great stand-ups. Go and see their shows if you want. Yeah. You can in Edinburgh, in London, in Melbourne, in Sydney to some degree. Yep. We have a show in Sydney.

We can get through the list a lot easier that way. At the current rate, do you think we're any chance of ever getting to the end of the list? Yes. Okay. Yes.
Starting point is 01:01:32 Really? Yeah. Wow, that's going to be a great day. We got to think about what we should do when we hit the end of the list. We actually used to be like ages behind, but I don't know whether to celebrate that or not celebrate that, the fact that we are catching up on the subscribers, because that either means that, that could mean that we're getting less popular, we're getting less subscribers. Yeah, I mean, you have a little bump, and then you have a little plateau, kind of makes
Starting point is 01:01:55 sense, makes sense a bit there. Yeah. Well, wow, that's going to be an interesting, that's kind of like the, you know, the third wish from the genie being like, I wish for you to be set free. Yes.

Starting point is 01:03:32 Thank you to everyone who subscribes on patreon.com slash littledomnomclub, but especially this week, these people. Thank you very much to Patreon subscriber Jessa McCoy. Hmm. Can't say I've ever heard that before.ccoy jessa jessa so it's like yeah is it short for jessica is it i mean you get jesse yeah jessa is that just the full name is it j-e-s-s apostrophe a no to signify that the i and the C have been fucked off. No. Damn. Jessa, J-E-S-S-A.
Starting point is 01:04:07 Jessa. I like it. I'm not against it. I quite like it. Yeah, I just haven't. The more I'm hearing it, it's phonetically very nice. Yeah. I haven't heard of it before, and I'm just catching up with my feelings about it.
Starting point is 01:04:19 And is the surname in there to kind of show you, you know, hey, this isn't a made-up name. This is the real McCoy. Oh, right. Hey. Okay. Hey. All right. I mean, yeah, where does that saying come from, the real McCoy?
Starting point is 01:04:34 Can you have a – do you think there's a – like Jess and McCoy, someone marries into the family and it's like you're not a real McCoy. This is not the real McCoy. Yeah, that's a you almost would be like i couldn't possibly take the surname because i'll always be living in i'll be living a lie yes i'll be a i'll be a fake mccoy i wonder if jessa is married and that's the that's the name she's had to adopt if she's a fake mccoy that'd be interesting um i'm gonna look it up where's the saying come from where does the saying real the real mccoy
Starting point is 01:05:07 yeah is it like was there like a yeah something some kind of item called a mccoy that there was all of a sudden like a big fake trade in them or something what is the origin of the phrase the real mccoy um oh the real mccoy was the inventor elijah mccoy born in canada in 1844 he had many different inventions including an ironing board and a lawn sprinkler other companies copied his devices but they never worked as well as elijah so people would say i want a ironing board but make sure it's a real mccoy there you go but then oh no this is one of those ones where it's a real McCoy. There you go. But then, oh no, this is one of those ones where it's like, okay, here's all... Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's just an urban legend.
Starting point is 01:05:51 Yeah, here's all these other answers. Okay. But... I like that version. I'll cop that one. Let's just say that's the version. It's the real McCoy. I like the idea.
Starting point is 01:06:05 The real McCoy is because someone didn't want a fake ironing board. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. And this one guy, his wares become so popular that all of a sudden, yeah, the marketplace is flooded with fake, yeah, fake knockoff McCoy. The alternative story is that a lot of people here are saying that it's come from the Scottish whiskey called McKay. But that's not the real McCoy because it's McKay.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Yeah, that's the Scots wanting to get themselves involved. That's them wanting to have a bit more history. That's an insane history of that saying. What's the origin of the real McCoy? It may have come from the brand of Scottish whiskey called McKay. A reference to it appeared in print in 1956. It talked about the origin of the real mccoy it may come from the brand of scottish whiskey called mccay a reference to it appeared in print in 1956 it talked about a drop of the real mccay that distills a.m mccay of guys go use the slogan the real mccay to advertise this whiskey brand in 1970 the phrase eventually reached the united states and eventually morphed into the real mccoy which is insane because the the real mccoy the real mccoy isn't the real mccay
Starting point is 01:07:04 it's going against everything the fucking phrase is there for yeah that's fucked in the head yeah okay well we're going with the previous story yeah no it's the inventor guy that's the that's the like way more it's the and at a certain point it doesn't matter what the truth is the truth is the better story yeah yeah well that's what it is. Well, thanks, Jessa. Well, thank you. Jesse, you are the real McCoy. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:28 You're a genuine ironing board. You are the ironing board to us. I mean, look, you may be better endowed in the chess region than that. Who's to know? I don't know. Oh, yeah, okay. I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:38 But to us, look, you could be triple Fs. I don't know. But to us, you are the real ironing board. The real ironing board. The real ironing board to us. Yeah. Thanks, Jessa. Thanks, Jessa.

Starting point is 01:09:59 Really should have done them the other way around if you could have. I know. The hope is that she's sick of good weather and fun things to do. Yeah. And wants to stare at a filing cabinet for 72 hours. Sit in a wet farm. Yep.
Starting point is 01:10:13 So I don't know how that'll go because it's going to be a little bit of this trick. Me driving up there, having dinner with the folks and then getting up in the morning and saying, hey Blanket, I'm going back now for a little bit. You have fun here for a few days. Yep. And then her crying and me going home anyway.
Starting point is 01:10:30 Yep. And then coming back in a couple more days. You think there will be a big... Has she stayed there before? No. Right. Yeah, okay. She stayed down the beach at my mum's beach house.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Without you? Without me. And that went okay. Yep. But I think that's a little bit more entertaining than the farm. Yeah. I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:49 So we'll see how that goes. But anyway. But she's been there before and she likes it or? Yeah, it's okay. Okay. But, I mean, this is pretty shit weather at the moment. Yeah. It might not be that good.
Starting point is 01:10:58 Yeah. So we'll see. But I haven't seen her for a week, so it'll be a good little road trip for us at the very least yeah um James Ransel you're happy to come along not in our car

Starting point is 01:11:29 Yep. I had a talking point for the normal episode. It was rattling around in my head. I'm like, I can't believe I've forgotten it. This would have been a good thing to chat about, and I've just remembered it. Okay. Fuck. Well, this is the beauty of podcasting. You can do it next week.
Starting point is 01:11:45 I know. Now you're ahead. I think it would have been good for these guys, but anyway. Too late now. But James Renssel. I don't want to burn it on this thing. When we've got something so plentiful as the surname Renssel. Renssel.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Yeah, it's almost the name of a brand of condoms. Yes. If it weren't for that one pesky letter. Rooting Ansel, yeah. It's almost the name of a brand of condoms. Yes. If it weren't for that one pesky letter. Rooting Ansel. Yep. Yeah. With the condoms, eh? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:15 Thoughts? On them. Yeah. I'm pro. Are you pro? I'm pro them. You like them? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:21 Okay. Yeah. You're always insistent on on wearing them yeah you're always a bit of a white knight yeah that's pretty cool yeah not pulling it off halfway through just leaving it on the whole time wow yeah i'm currently i've still got on every condom i've ever worn really right now yeah you're always like before you let anyone put their dick in your ass you always insist they put put one on yeah and I want to have one on as well just in case. Just in case it goes all the way through into your dick and then out the other end.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Yes, yes. Wow. If you must know. Right. Pretty personal, but yeah, if you must know, that's what I do. I mean, in my head, I'm like, that doesn't work. But then you said it with such confidence. I'm like, well, maybe I don't know anything.
Starting point is 01:13:02 I'm not backing down. So it must be true. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm starting to feel like, oh, I'm an idiot know anything. I'm not backing down. So it must be true. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm starting to feel like, oh, I'm an idiot. It's like high school all over again. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:12 Actually, I did hear about that. That's real. Yeah. I did hear about that, actually. Gaslighting is like bullying. It's only bad when you're the one not doing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When you're doing it, it's great. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:21 Convincing someone of something else that they know in their heart to not be true. It's a great feeling. It's a victimless crime as long as you pretend that the victim isn't real. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:34 If you're a psychopath and you don't view other people as real people, it's a victimless crime. Yeah. If you forget about the other person. Yeah. Perfect. Yeah. Well, thanks, James Ransel.

Starting point is 01:14:22 Pellets. Pelletge. I mean, it can't be Palleges. Yeah. It can't be that. Pallage? I wonder if a person like this gets off on hearing us fumble all over their name. No.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Like, they've signed up and they've gone, this is going to fucking really stop. No. This guy's lived like this his whole life. This is all he's copped his whole life. Yeah, but now he's hearing his two favorite podcasters get tripped up by it. Yeah, you're right. He's hearing these guys he listens to get slightly annoyed by something he's brought to the table. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:58 Well, well done. I hope you've got a real stiff dick off the back of this, James. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope you're real proud of yourself. Congratulations. You're a real big man now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope you're real proud of yourself. Congratulations. You're a real big man now. You couldn't go with Smith, could you? You had to do whatever the fuck this is.
Starting point is 01:15:13 I'm looking this guy up. That's it. I've had enough. You're hoping that in his bio on Facebook he has, here's how to pronounce my name. His profile pic is just a video of him pronouncing his own name. Fuck yeah. That's a good idea.
Starting point is 01:15:25 That would be a common sense thing to do. God, there's only one person on Facebook with this name. Only one person. Must be him then. Well, I think it is. I think it really is actually. Because in his pictures, there's like a Sydney Swans player, which means that he's from Australia. Yep.
Starting point is 01:15:51 Let's look if he is in the Millionaires group. That'll be the real deal. That's the real giveaway. Yeah. He might not be, though, because he might not want to be posting and then have every comment be like, how the fuck do you say this name? Yeah. No, he's not in the group. He's not be, though, because he might not want to be posting and then have every comment be like, how the fuck do you say this name? Yeah. No, he's not in the group.
Starting point is 01:16:08 He's not in the group. Not in the group. Interesting. What a waste. Yeah. Well, I don't know what to say about this guy. I'd be a lot happier about it if I knew how to say this name. I just feel extremely uncomfortable
Starting point is 01:16:25 usually i back myself i've got some form of confidence about this name but i've got i feel like a real weak it's a tough one it's a real tough one like a really weak man i haven't done my job properly i got one thing to do i've got five things to do can i ask are you currently sick i've got a i got the the end of a bit of flu yeah is that okay yeah i'm just wanted to know well i told you yeah yeah i'm uh right at the end of a little bit of a cold yeah yeah a little bit flowy um but we're sitting our distances you know i just i'll just take some uh take take my Flintstones chewable vitamin C when I get home. Yeah, you do that. No, it's been good timing with the family being away
Starting point is 01:17:15 because I have been, I don't feel bad or anything, but I have been absolutely sweating it up in the bed sheets. Really? Yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah, no good. A bit of that going around at the moment. A lot of that going bed sheets. Really? Yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah, no good. Bit of that going around at the moment. A lot of that going around at the moment.
Starting point is 01:17:28 Yeah. Yeah. So, but not too bad. But, you know, that horrible thing of like when one of you in the bed is sick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just ruining for everyone. Yeah. So, I've got it out of the way.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Otherwise, I would have been on this couch for the last five days. Oh, yeah. I did a out of the way. Otherwise, I would have been on this couch for the last five days. Oh. Yeah, I did a bit of that recently. My fiancé had a fever and I went, you know what? Yeah. You just take the bed. Yeah. I'll go couch mode for a few nights.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Yeah. That's the way to do it. Well, thanks, James. Please get in contact. Let us, put us out of our misery. Yeah. Let us know what's going on. Answer the great riddle.
Starting point is 01:18:02 Yeah. Thank you very much to Patreon subscriber. And look, here's one of these things where you don't have to put your real name in Patreon. Makes our jobs easier. Yeah. But this guy's put whatever this is in. So thank you very much to Patreon subscriber Moron Powered Mohawk. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:25 That's him. Moron Powered Mohawk. Moron Powered Mohawk. Okay. That's him? Moron Powered Mohawk. Moron Powered Mohawk. You never know with these things. Like, you know, often there'll be one of these random things and we're like, oh, yeah, okay. Imagine that. And then it turns out it's, you know, it's a line from a song or it's like a fucking obscure band name or something like that that we just don't know about.
Starting point is 01:18:43 Yep. Because this seems to me to be too specific to be just a thing that this guy made up. You're right. I'm going to look it up. Moron powered mohawk. You're right. Let's look it up. It's got real like Nirvana B-side kind of.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Yeah. Yeah, that's not bad. Anything coming up? No, just... You know what? I think this guy's Twitter account, maybe. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Oh, fuck. If this is who this guy is... He's got heaps of followers. Oh, no. It's called Rocket Powered Mohawk. That's not it. That's a different person. It's a different word, isn't it?
Starting point is 01:19:24 It's a whole different entity. That's actually a. No, that's different. That's a different person. It's a different word, isn't it? It's a whole different entity. That's actually a different word. Might have been his inspiration, though. He might have thought like, yeah, rocket-powered mohawk. That's cool. But if you had one that was powered by fucking the morons around you. It'd be the biggest mohawk in the world. Because everyone's fucked.
Starting point is 01:19:43 Because everyone's so dumb. Everyone's a fucking idiot. Everyone else's so dumb. Everyone's a fucking idiot. Everyone else is so dumb. Yeah, exactly. Well, we are a – our podcast is actually a more on powered mohawk powered podcast. Yeah. Thanks to his dollars.
Starting point is 01:19:59 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's converting some of that more on power into AUD. Yes. And then funneling it into patreon.com slash little dumb. You're right, Tommy. It's been turned into AUD from what sort of currency do you think? Because this is actually a little thing that's come up. What sort of currency is he chucking into Patreon
Starting point is 01:20:21 and it's being spat out as AUD? Oh, you can see where he's from? Yeah. You can see what where he's from? Yeah. You can see what money. What currency. Yeah. Hmm, interesting. And now, here's the interesting part.
Starting point is 01:20:33 You have to guess the abbreviation. As you've said, AUD is Australian dollars. What are we getting? Oh, right. What's it being converted from and what's the interesting part again well it's better than fucking james ransel or whatever true um okay moron powered mohawk i am going to guess, hmm, I'm tempted to say the good old USD, but I don't think that's saucy enough for you to bring up
Starting point is 01:21:12 and make a little game out of. Thank you. Poro. So given that it's taken your interest, I'm going to say THB. Very close. SGD. Singapore dollar. That's right. Yeah. Well, that's, I mean, that's very closeD. Singapore dollar. That's right.
Starting point is 01:21:26 Yeah. Well, that's, I mean, that's very close to the Australian dollar. Yes. In terms of conversion. You're right. So he's not getting any nasty shocks when it's coming out of the bank account. Yeah, yeah. Fucking hell, it's actually.
Starting point is 01:21:40 Yeah. Now I want to know more on Powered Mohawk. Is this some sort of blip or are you actually from Singapore? Because it is good to know where our listeners are from around the world. And the idea that we have listeners in Singapore is fascinating. Really? Don't you think so? Well, Singapore's a huge expat community. Singapore's a huge expat community. I know, but I still, you know, you've been to Singapore, I've been to Singapore, walking around there and going, thinking of someone walking around Singapore listening to us.

Starting point is 01:22:17 I'll cop anything. Yeah. You know, at the rate we're catching up with our subscribers, I'll cop the interesting story of someone walking around in Melbourne listening to us. Well, let us know, More Unpowered Mohawk, were you More Unpowered Mohawk before living in Singapore or have you taken a job there and seen something out in the street
Starting point is 01:22:38 that's made you want to take on the name More Unpowered Mohawk or maybe you are one of the very rare people that is an actual Singaporean, of which there are not all that many in Singapore. Yes. If you're an expat, let us know what it's like to move to Singapore. It looks good. It looks like a bit of fun to me. Yeah.
