Hey mates, welcome once again into the Little Dumb Dumb Club for another week. Thank you very much for joining us. It is 216 days until Nick Cody's birthday. My name is Tommy Dasolo. Sitting opposite me, as always, the other half of the show, Carl Chandler. G'day Dickhead and Karen. New segment for us. Very exciting. Karen's Corner. Karen's Corner. If you were

listening last week, Carl, you regularly get updates from Nick Cody's mum about how many days it is until Nick's birthday. Tom Gleeson suggested that we start a regular segment, the Nick Cody birthday countdown. I like it. I like doing it. I think we're going to have to do it every week from now on. How many did you go?

216 from the day this goes online. This episode goes out. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. 216. So maybe if you- So how many shopping days is that until Nick Cody's birthday?

Oh, boy. So what would that be? Oh, man, I'm too bad at maths. Yeah, probably like 150, I reckon. Something like that, yeah. Yeah. So if you are friends with Nick Cody on Facebook, get on his page today and just give it a bit of 216. Well, fine. No, just are friends with Nick Cody on Facebook, get on his page today and just give it a bit of 216.

Or find, no, just send it to Keren Cody. Oh, okay, yeah. K-E-R-R-Y-N-C-O-D-Y. You send, give it back to her from me. What if we, that sounds bad. What if we do a bit of internet flash mobbing of Nick Cody's mother on Facebook? Please. Oh, I would be so happy.

If anyone wants to make me happy on the internet, please do that. Yeah. Hey, question. Is it bad to not have a hubcap on one of the wheels of your car? Is that a bad thing? It's not perfect. I've got that. It's not perfect, whoever that is.

Because I've got that at the moment. When do you introduce the guests on the show? Should I bring the guests in and then I'll introduce them? Oh, gee. You're talking about Nick Cody like everyone knows who he is, like Steve Weisshardt or something. Because everyone knows Steve Weishardt or something. Because everyone knows Steve Weishardt. Sweet example.

He had his own show for 10 years, didn't he? Yeah, back in the 60s. Oh, it's the 80s, 90s. All right, come on. So Nick Cody's a comedian. For people listening in Canberra, I wouldn't know Nick Cody. To be honest, this bloke's done well to shut up for about a minute. I'm starting to think the studio we record in is haunted.

There's always voices in here that we don't know where they're coming from. Old comics that used to work here. The ghost of grill teams past. We're being haunted by right now. Okay, well, let's introduce our guests. Where's Timbo and Bettis? Our first guest, you may have heard him on the show before. He's one of the co-runners of Comedy at Spleen in Melbourne.

Please welcome back into the little dum-dum club, Pete Sharkey. Pete Sharkey. The Sharkey. Last time you were here, you told one of my all-time favourite stories about you being drunk, having a blackout, and waking up in the middle of The Talented Mr. Ripper. And in cinemas, we should point out. Not on DVD.

Actually, in the cinema. You woke up in the cinema. That's awesome. Yeah, overseas trip. So I was in Birmingham. Oh, did you start The Bender in Australia? Yeah. I think you actually made that, in the cinema. You woke up in the cinema. That's awesome. Yeah, overseas trip. So I was in Birmingham. Oh, did you start the bender in Australia? Yes. I think you actually made that joke on the show the first time he told that story.

Classic Chandler. Classic Chandler. Classic Chandler. Why mess with the classics? And also making a return to the program, you may know him from Can of Worms. Please welcome back into the little Dungeon Club. Tracy Bartram. Dave O'Neill.

Great to be here. You've got a bit of the Bartrams about you. Apparently. She O'Neill. Great to be here. You've got a bit of the Bartrams about you. Apparently. She lives near me now. I haven't seen her. Can you sing? Oh, yeah. No, not really.

No. I can play the guitar. Not that good. Yeah. I'll give you a tune now. Yeah, go on. No, it's okay. I won't.

Give us a torch song. A torch song? You've gotten all quiet all of a sudden since you've been introduced. Yeah, I have. This is introduced. You prefer not being. I prefer. You prefer the mystery.

Yeah, and you're talking about people and no one knows who they are. To be fair, people on this podcast know Nick Cody a lot more than they know Tracy Bartram. Okay, all right. All right. Point taken. Point taken. I mean, I love Nick Cody, obviously. He's a great comic.

But, you know, I've never met his mum, though. We know our demo. Don't worry. We're all right. You're aware of it. Yeah. 216 days till his birthday. Yeah.

Unless we start a new corner, Tracy's birthday. How many days till Tracy Bartram's birthday? Oh, man. I could find that out pretty easily. We don't know. Next week. Next week. So, back to your story.

So, back to my story. Hubcap. Which isn't very good to begin. I mean, you know, it was one of those ones that's kind of good for before we introduce the guests and now that there's this pressure on it. Yeah. Anyway, the other day. I didn't have high expectations, if that helps.

At least we can join in now and laugh. Sure. I wasn't going to laugh at it normally. The other day I was driving around doing an errand for you, Carl, helping you out. Oh, you did? Thank you for that. Yeah. Yeah.

That's, you're welcome. In Carl's courier business. Yep. Yeah, right. helping you out. Oh, you did? Thank you for that. In Carl's Courier business.

Yep. And I took a corner a bit too sharply and went, oh, okay, that was a lesson was learned. And then as I drove off, I looked in my rear view mirror and one of my hubcaps was like a cartoon just wheeling itself along the road, like across where I'd been. And so I kind of thought I should pick that up. And like, I don't know anything about cars. So now it's just sitting on the back seat of my car waiting to be – should I put it back on? Take it to a mechanic in Bill Chandler for us.

That's what I was going to get to because I was – I only had this accident because I was doing an errand for you. If you unfortunately hit a pole and became a quadriplegic, he'd have to push you in the wheelchair for the rest of his life. It's like an episode of a sitcom. Yes. You can just pop it in. It should be able to just – I mean, I'm not very mechanical,

but you should just be able to pop it in. If you were in a wheelchair like Stephen Hawking style, you could actually directly line the wheelchair up to the soundboard here and talk straight into the podcast. You'd win raw comedy if you were in a wheelchair, man, or green faces at the very least. Do you mean like in a wheelchair or like were in a wheelchair, man. Or green faces, at the very least. Do you mean in a wheelchair or just in a wheelchair in your scenario? Or have I got the voice box?

You've got the voice box. You've got the voice box. Bad accident. Yeah. Nasty. Yeah. Huh. Yeah.

So that would be quite cool. We wouldn't have to figure out all the mechanics like we did before the show. So hang on. He'd be in a character but also get throat cancer at the same time. Stephen Hawking doesn't have throat cancer. He was born like it, wasn't he? Yeah. No, he'd be in a character but also get throat cancer at the same time? Stephen Hawking doesn't have throat cancer. He was born like it, wasn't he? No, he wasn't. No, he wasn't.

He was normal at 18. Was he? Yeah, it was just a degrading sort of a... Degrading? Dehabilitating. It is degrading. Yeah, well, the degrading was having... So it's like motor neurons.

He's bum wiped for them, I think. Yeah. Hidden affair. Yeah. Wow. See, how does that work? Anyway. They probably for him, I think. Yeah. Hidden affair. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. See, how does that work? Anyway.

They probably, yeah, I don't know how that happened. They started wiping his bum. There's a video that you can look up on YouTube that is awesome of Stephen Hawking's time travellers party. Have you seen that? No. Where he did this thing where he threw a party in an effort to disprove time travel. He made this invitation saying, on September the 20th, 2003, I'm going to have a time travellers party.

I want people to come back in time to my party. There'll be a whole spread on for you. And he wrote this invitation up and he said, I want people through the ages to make sure that this invitation is preserved throughout time. So then there's a video of him on the internet. He's got this party all set up. He's got like all these food, all these streamers in his house.

He's sitting there in the room with a little party hat on, and it's really dramatically, like, counting down to 8 p.m. when he's told time travellers to rock up, and then the minute hand hits 8. And you're actually, you get sucked into it because it's so dramatic. You're watching it going, are people just going to zap in out of nowhere? And then it hits 8, nothing happens, and he just goes,

no one came to my party. What a shame. It's like the 21st, Tommy. In a couple of years when he has it. The Baldwin Girl Guide Hall. I'm putting it out there right now. It's Sunday 23rd of September. It's 9.18.

If you come down to Podcast City in Melbourne, you can be part of this Little dum-dum club At 9 No we gotta Like what is it It's 12 past by this clock Let's say half past Get here at 9.30

Half past In 18 minutes time Alright Okay Come back to What is it September the 23rd 23rd

Yeah 23rd Sunday night Podcast City You don't need to give If you're giving the date You don't need to give the day as well Oh okay

2012 Some people get mixed up Come back Sunday Yeah Podcast City. If you're giving the date, you don't need to give the day as well. Oh, okay. 2012. Some people get mixed up. Come back. Sunday, yeah. Podcast City in Melbourne. Come down. I hope an alien turns up. I like the idea that time travellers are sitting there and that they're getting a message from Stephen Hawking and going, nah.

And then the little Dundum Club rocks up and they go, nah, we'll go to that one instead. That one was too obvious. They would have been caught. There's not that many people listening to this. But they're all kind of fame hungry. They don't want to just turn up to a party and just be there. They want to be on a podcast. They don't want to be seen.

They just want to be maybe heard. Yeah. I think that makes sense in some way. So in summary, Dave, Carl should pay for my hubcap thing. Yes, pay for the hubcap application to your car. No. Because it's embarrassing though because the hubcap came off and I don't know anything about cars.

I don't know. And it kind of – because my girlfriend doesn't drive. She doesn't have a car. No. Because it's embarrassing though because the hubcap came off and I don't know anything about cars. I don't know. And it kind of, because my girlfriend doesn't drive, she doesn't have a car. And that's such a blessing because I'm never called on to tinker with it or fix it or tell her what's going on. So I'm just literally driving around with no hubcap on one wheel and then a hubcap on my back seat. I'm like an idiot. So you stopped and ran out and grabbed it?

Yeah, I drove off and then I kind of thought, oh, I probably will need that at some stage. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you should. I mean, they're not that functional, hubcaps, I believe, but they look good, don't they? Yeah. Because I lost one of my cars. It just looks like a homeless car now.

No hubcap. You know what you should do? You should either fix it or pull all the other ones off because that's what makes it look stupid if it's missing one. I actually did think that. I actually thought maybe it's just easier for me to just trash the rest of the car. It's like losing a tooth and going, well, I'll just pull them all out now. The Greg Fleet method.

The Greg Fleet. I was thinking that. Hello, Greg. You won't be listening, but anyway. Hey, it's free. Oh, Jesus. Hey, he'll turn up at 9.30. That's for sure.

I'm from the future, dude. Got some money. Another one Greg Fleet called your dude. We'll say, oh, you've come too bad. We've only That's for sure. I'm from the future, dude. Got some money. Another Win-Win-Fleet called me a dude. We'll say, oh, you've come too bad. We've only got pounds for you. You've come back too far, mate. This is 1963. Pure uncut stuff back here in the, what?

All right. Okay. You know what happened to me? I was doing something the other night and I was away from home and I rang my girlfriend just to make sure she was all right because I feel a bit bad sometimes. You guys would all feel this when you go out and you leave your girlfriend at home. It's the life of a stand-up widow. It's comedy widow, my wife calls it.

Yeah, that's it. I'd say you're out more than most because you run rooms where you have to be there and also then this. Yeah, for sure. And you have a horrendous drinking and gambling problem. So that chews up the other spenders. And I'm homeless. How many nights are we home?

A couple, not heaps. Tuesday's your big night, isn't it? Tuesday's my weekend. It's pretty good. Yeah, but then every now and then you book gigs on a Tuesday night as well. The Shane Blue Heelers is not on anymore. Could have been a big night for you Tuesday night. Sorry, I'm going to have to step in.

Tuesday night was All Saints night. Wednesday was Blue Heelers night. You're. It's going to be a big night for you Tuesday night. Sorry, I'm going to have to step in. Tuesday night was All Saints night. Wednesday was Blue Heelers night. You're right. So Tuesday I am busy. So really, Friday and Saturday I like my weekend in a way. Friday and Saturday is the weekend, man. I don't want to point that out. Well, that's good for you.

Because I work a lot of weekends. Because for people listening, I'm more of a busy comic than Carl. I do footy clubs. The West Wyalong Seconds need an MC. And O'Neill. O'Neill will do it for 400 cash. All right, send him out. O'Neill's straight on the V line.

On the highway. Straight on the V line. We did a gig together, didn't we, Carl? I know. We did Ringwood. What was it? Football club. North Ringwood?

No, East Ringwood. East Ringwood. Because then you did West Ringwood no no East Ringwood East Ringwood because then you did West Ringwood in the middle of the gig yeah I went off and did another one that's what I do

that's what I do yeah that's right because you were MC and then I was the middle or whatever and then Jeff Green was headline Jeff Green was headline

and then you took off for a gig and went oh I'll just finish the gig if I don't turn up back in time I'm doing a gig 100 metres away

it was bizarre it was 100 metres away it was very bizarre so then you didn't turn up back in time. I'm doing a gig 100 metres away. It was bizarre. It was 100 metres away. It was very bizarre. So then you didn't turn up back in time. So then I finished the night by going, thanks for coming. The only reason Dave O'Neill isn't here is because he said, you assholes weren't worth it. So he just left.

Oh, no wonder they were angry when I got back. And then he said, no, just joking. What he's always doing at this time of night is at Adam Hills' window crying, saying, please bring Spix the Specs back. Man, no wonder they ripped all the hubcaps off your car. Man. Well, that's where I pulled up in the disabled spot. I never park in disabled spot.

But I have had a broken leg. And that guy goes, there's a guy smoking the classic, you know, Ringwood Bogue. I grew up in there, Ringwood Bogue. And he goes, hey, mate, can't see the sticker on your car? I'm like, yeah, yeah. Because I just want to get the PA. Me and Chad, I had to take the PA system out there, the speakers and the microphones.

And that's what people don't know what PA system is. Stands for public address. Yeah, yeah. So we've explained Nick Cody and PAs today. And Steve Weisshardt. And so anyway, he goes, I can't see the ticket on your car. And I went, oh, God. So then I moved it.

And then he goes, oh, you're that guy from Spigs and Spegs. And he was right up my ass, wasn't he? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He wanted to be my best mate. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then he said I could move my car back there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, that's too bad, buddy.

I've had to move it. Like, that was the sweet spot. Like, oh, no, he's the master of the disabled parking. Yeah, yeah. God. Anyway, hey, so I rang my girlfriend when I was out and I was like, oh, you know, you call it home tonight? You're busy or you're doing anything?

And she's like, yeah, I know. I went to the movies. I'm at the movies now. I'm about to go into the movies. I'm like, oh, yeah, what movie are you going into? She goes, Magic Mike. And I went, oh, really? You're going to see Magic Mike?

Right. Who are you with? And she's like, oh, I'm just by myself. Oh, fantastic. Hang on a minute. You've gone to Magic Mike, the movie about strippers by yourself. You know that that's just like some dirty old man going to the Crazy Horse Cinema by himself. The barrel.

Yeah. And then she's like, oh, oh, oh, no. What? No, no. It's not like that. And I'm like, yes, it is. And she goes, oh, I don't even know what this movie's about. I went, hang on a minute. Yes, you do. I love magicians. Yeah, yeah, yes, it is. She goes, oh, I don't even know what this movie's about. I went, hang on a minute.

Yes, you do. I love magicians. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just on a whim. That's it. It's not like Pixar's latest release. Like, Magic Mike isn't some little boy played by Justin Bieber. The only thing disappearing in that movie is a lot of chicks' hands down their pants.

Or she thinks it's like, you know, Philip Seymour, yeah, Paul Thomas Anderson's done that, The Master, which is kind of like about Scientology without saying it's about Scientology. She thinks Magic Mike is about Copperfield, but without saying it's about Copperfield. Yeah, she knows. She knew. Of course she knew.

Yeah, she did say, and I rang her back in the end. She said, yeah, there was a lot of women in there, but there were some guys, but they were gay. I'm like, yeah, well, yeah. That would be a strange image if you were that, like you were with some mates and just you saw

just a woman on her own seeing Magic Mike yeah that's sad well you'd sit next to her yeah start up a conversation you like stripping do you

hey yeah I'm a stripper myself yeah what if there was a blacked out Pete Sharkey in the middle of Magic Mike for half the film he just comes to

I'd be truly embarrassed imagine that. Talking about it. Yeah. And you wake up and go, where's Matt Damon? Matt Damon's not in this. Isn't the talent of Mr. Ripley, isn't there a twist to it somewhere? There's a twist, isn't there?

Yeah, he's chatting Tatum doing dancing. Yeah, yeah. The twist is Peter'd shit himself. So you would have bought a ticket. That's an amazing story. You bought a ticket? Do you have a ticket? I bought a ticket,'s an amazing story You bought a ticket? Do you have a ticket? I bought a ticket Did everything

That's the thing I go Went to the candy bar? Hoyts don't have a breathalyser So Yeah Like the guy Someone's ripped my ticket

Which means you're in buddy That's Birmingham though I wonder if So you were drunk And you don't remember I wonder if you watched the previews And then subconsciously went and watched those other movies just because drunk sharky like.

And you must have chosen the movie. Yeah, you chose Telling Mr. Ripley. Yeah, which is not a bad choice. I've never gone back and watched the film, I thought. I'll leave it at that. But that's such a great story because it's one of those stories that, you know, even if it didn't, like telling it as a second party, even if it didn't happen to you, you're still a legend for telling it.

Like it's that good of a story. Sometimes those stories are like, yeah, but it didn't happen to you. Who gives a shit? Whereas that one. It happened to you, man. Yeah. What else have you done drunk? Oh, look, because when I was in England, so for a year,

I stayed with my uncle and I would just go on mad sessions and like- English are big drinkers though. Huge. Birmingham. Were you in Birmingham? Yeah. So I was working during the day on a construction site and then we'd have a few knockoff drinks.

So I was going out drunk and I was literally filthy. I had black hands. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Working and getting shit-faced, trying to pick up women with like, you know, like a chimney- With black hands. God. Chimney sweep. Yeah women with, like, you know, like a chimney sweep. God. Chimney sweep. Yeah.

It's like, this is retarded. But they would have loved you, wouldn't they? Well, maybe, but I can't remember. Did you ever wake up on a date at a movie? Yeah. You haven't bought me popcorn yet, Pete. You wake up. But me and Ruff.

Yeah, pretty rough. They all drink at, like, these sort of social clubs. You've got to be members of. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You wake up. But me, I'm rough. Yeah, pretty rough. Yeah, yeah. It was a, they all drink at like these sort of social clubs, and you've got to be members of, so across the road. Yeah, yeah, yeah, workers' clubs. Yeah, that's it, exactly. Yeah. There was one across the road called the Barford, Barford Workers' Club, and they had a little hall that they'd hired out, and it was a Sunday. I was blind, and there was a Jamaican wedding, and so, because I was feeling pretty confident

and pissed and wanted a few drinks. Had a crack at the bride. No, yeah, I got in and had a few drinks at the wedding. The only white guy, I mean. Only white guy, yeah. And my cover was, I was in the band. You look over, it's a reggae band. It's just a tambourine.

To be fair, you still had black hands. Hands up to your face. Black yourself out, man. Next you wake up, you're on Hey Hey It's Saturday. I read faces. Black yourself out, man. Next you're on, wake up, you're on Hey Hey on Saturday on red faces. You literally

had jazz hands. That's fantastic. I'm the white guy on UB40. There was a few white guys from Birmingham. Yeah,

you just pretend you're a black guy, you just white it up on your face. Pretty racist. That's a great story. Harsh part of the world. Yeah,

Birmingham. You're a good drunk because you get drunk because you've got this safety, what would you say, like a handbrake. If we go out and we have a lot of drinks, you just have this safety valve where you just disappear because you know what you're capable of. Yeah, but he goes to the movies. Yeah, that's where you find him.

At that time of night, you must have seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show a lot. Yeah, the late night one. Blues Brothers. It'd be The Room at the moment. The Room, yeah, yeah, yeah. Fair enough. The Room Inside Out. Yeah, Magic Michael would be the next one.

Yeah, Magic Michael. Hey, what about this? Now, Tommy Dastley, you sent me this thing the other day, which I've been looking at, and you had it passed on to you, but someone's made a Tumblr about me. Someone's made a Tumblr that is fuckyeacarlchandler.tumblr.com, which is people do that about, I think there's like a fuck yeah Ryan Gosling. Yeah, yeah.

There's all sorts of different ones. Well, there you go. Rob Patterson. There you go. Two peas in a pod. Fuck yeah, Magic Mike. Who's made that? I don't know, but this is the sweet bit. So, you know, it's nice that someone's bothered to make a time about me, right? Yeah, there's stuff on there. But the reason it

probably hasn't come up in front of me, like it's a couple of years old. The reason I probably haven't noticed it is because they've spelt my name wrong on it. No, with a C? No. No. Better than that. So it's K-A-R-L-C-A-N-H-D-L-E-R. Oh. You know what I think? Candler. I think that may have been a deliberate effort to stop me from finding it. Really?

But it would stop everyone from finding it. Yeah, but I don't think that's, I don't know that that's part of it. I don't think they want, you know, they don't want the attention. They're just a fan of... Oh, I've just... I'm looking at it now. And yeah, you're right, because he's misspelt my name in every occurrence in the Tumblr. Yeah, it's on purpose.

Because then there's a quote from me, and then it says Carl Changler. Oh, is he misspelling it in different ways? Yeah. I like that. That's the part of it I like. No, the part of it I like is all the captions of all the bits he's put on there. So I don't know, because I'm looking at this going, is this a joke? I don't know. I will say this.

I think he's a young guy. Right. And so I think it's young, current internet speak. Why are you assuming that it's the guy? Meeting an old man. Could be a girl. Could be a girl. I know, it's a guy.

Right. Okay. I like it. Here's a girl. Could be a girl. It's a guy. Right. Okay. I like it. Here's a caption. There's a picture of people poking me in the face, and he's put a caption that says, I wonder who is poking him. I would have put my hand up to help out a mate.

Good men always support each other. Yes, he's all the way. Yeah, that's a young person. I hope. Yeah, that's a young person. That's an old guy. I hope it's not Tracy Bartram. Steve Visor.

He's not doing much now. I just like how you just glossed over the fact of there's just a photo of people poking me in the face. Where's that from? Oh, it's from a magazine. Oh, of course. Penthouse. Outrage. No.

There's another thing. There's a picture that we've had done of us. The one in the pipe? No, no, no, no, no. A drawing. A drawing by James Fosdyke, a big podcast illustrator. Oh, is it up at the Comics Lounge when you walk in? No.

No, no, no. There are cartoon portraits of comedians. I'll show you now, Dave. You may not have seen that. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Who did that? James Fosdyke. I just told you now, Dave. You may not have seen that. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Who did that? James Fosdyke.

I just told you. Who's James Fosdyke? He's a professional illustrator in Sydney. Is this like that gig in Ringwood? Did he just piss off to a neighbouring

podcast studio and went through that story? Again, you're saying James Fosdyke like everyone knows who James Fosdyke is. I just explained it. He's Nick Cody's mate.

Okay. He's very good. Yeah, yeah. It's a great picture. Yeah, I don't know how you'd find it on the internet, but it's a picture of me. Put it on there. It's on our Facebook page. Yeah, it's way back.

Put it on the Dumb Dumb website. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's got a picture of Daslo's head as a dick on my head, as in me saying, G'day, dickhead. And the caption says, bit gross, but at least he's the head, not the dick. I still pay it. Yeah, Bob. So am I learning what the kids talk like today?

I guess so. Is that now? It's just, yeah, Bob. You've got to get this guy on who this kid is. I like it. Probably a school kid. Yeah. Yeah.

Maybe we should. Should we try and get him to phone in? Would you be down for that? I'd be more happy with us sending him questions and him writing them back because I like his written stuff. Yeah, the way he speaks. Great. It's always disappointing when you meet them.

Great. Yeah. There's a picture of me with the book that speaks. Great. It's always disappointing when you meet them. Great. Yeah. There's a picture of me with the book that I put out. It says, he has a book too. So talented. Yep, he is. Yepo. Yepo.

I love it. Oh. I love it. A poster of a gig I was doing. Would have loved to have gotten an evening off work and gotten down to this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. Yeah factors in a lot.

Yeah. He likes yeah. Yeah. We'll get in touch with that dude. Hit us up, littledumbdumbclub at gmail.com, and maybe we can have you on in some capacity. It'll be fun. Yeah. No, for sure.

Yeah, hit up me, Carl Changler. Yeah, Changler. Yeah. Carl Changler at fmail.com. What are the different permutations of my name? Is it going to be on the internet? Wow. Carl Changler. There was a guy pretending to to be on the internet? Kyle Changler.

There was a guy pretending to be me on Facebook before I was on Facebook. Really? Yeah, some dude. And he put status updates, which were hilarious. Like, going to the movies with Rowe. He always had me hanging out with comedians. Were you drinking? No, no.

I was like, I'd be down the park and I'd check it and I'd go, what the hell? We're going to the movies in Rove. Hang on. Why were you down in the park checking your own Facebook that wasn't yours? No, I could get it on my phone. Someone sent me the link or something like that. Said, you've got to check out this guy who's pretending to be you.

And he was based in Newcastle. That's the only thing I remember. And he had my photo and people would join. Because, Mom, you know how I found out. My mom said, oh, your cousins are pissed off with you. You won't friend them on Facebook. I was going to say, she called up and said, how was the movie? Tell her I said hi.

I was going to say, why is your mom more in control of social media than you? No, because the cousins rang up and said, oh, Dave won't friend us on Facebook. And I had a look at all my cousins that tried to join. And this guy wasn't friending them back. So he was denying them, apparently. That's pretty funny. And then there was another one. I like that he set up a fake you, but he's still got some kind of like,

he's got standards about it. Like he's not just going to let any old schmuck into this fake Dave O'Neill. Maybe he's thought up a new biography for Dave O'Neill thinking, I'm pretty sure he's not friends with his family. There's been a falling out in the family. The real Dave O'Neill wouldn't be friends with Harry O'Neill. Well, because he didn't invite them along to that movie with Rove. Yeah, yeah.

And then we're talking about Hamish and Andy. Go to Hamish and Andy's launch of their something or other. Oh, yeah. Oh, man, I love it. I'm going to make up a fake Pete Sharkey Twitter and just put pissed at Magic Mike. Pissed at the Avengers. Kath and Kim woke up pissed. Yeah, just updated about one in the morning every night.

Found a midnight screen of your takeaway. Yes, beers are on me. Yeah, Bob. Yeah, 105, popcorn sold out. Damn. What's Dave O'neill and rove doing here i did go to the movies with rove once i did no i went to one of those screenings when i worked in radio and you had to you know you watch the movie and that's called the movies yeah and we went and uh but for media only media only and we we went to a like we went to a sandwich shop below the cinema and these guys in in construction outfits were pointing and stuff,

and this guy comes up, and he goes, me and my mates reckon that you look a lot like Dave O'Neill. And I went, yeah, I am Dave O'Neill. He goes, oh, are you kidding? And he had his camera, his phone. He goes to Rove, mate, could you take a photo of us? That's a true story. That was a long time ago, actually.

But Rove was massive. I don't think he was taking the piss either. No, we get it. You're bigger than Rove. We get the point of the story. What was the movie? That's what I want to know. I can't remember.

Sorry, I'm coughing. I can't remember. It was a long time ago. I was at Hoyts, though, in the city, which isn't there anymore. So it was a while ago. What about the... Did you end the Facebook? Did you... Yeah, no. He stopped. The guy stopped. I assume it was a guy. He just stopped. So it's a while ago. What about the, did you end the Facebook? Did you?

Yeah. No, he stopped. The guy stopped. I assume it was a guy. He just stopped. So it's still active? I don't know. I don't think it is still active.

But I had a look because I remember seeing two different cousins from different sides of the family trying to, you know, saying, hey Dave, why won't you blah, blah, or something like that. On the wall. Yeah, on the wall. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh man, that is too funny. Yeah, I just remember that. My mum told me about it.

Yeah, that's how I found out. Your real account now looks kind of fake because the picture is just a cartoon. What is it? A cartoon cat or something? Yeah, yeah. No, because that's because I've got a fan page and my personal page. Because if you want to have a fan page, you've got to have a personal page. Right, right.

And so you don't want people to go to your personal page. There's nothing happening on my personal page at all. There's nothing. I occasionally just slag, chammer off, something like that. I was going to say, on Facebook and Twitter, your hobby recently has been calling me and Carl a couple of poofs. Yeah, hey, poofs. You've done it a number of times now.

If anyone listens to you from Herald's Unconfidential, there's a well-known celebrity being quite homophobic between me and Tommy. Which, yeah, we were talking about it the other day. We find it funny because people in your position have lost their jobs for far less than that. Yeah, true, yeah. But I've got no jobs. It doesn't matter. You're going to lose your job as MC out at...

Funhouse. No, no, MC at whatever that footy club we did was. Ringwood North. Ringwood North. We don't like your homophobic comments on Twitter, frankly, mate. You're going to lose East and West Ringwood. You're going to only have North and South Ringwood. That'd hurt me.

You're not going to be invited to Hamish and Andy's next launch for whatever it is or was. Yeah, that's true. Well, I see that as like a friendly term. Hey, poofs. Oh, yeah. No, you say it that way. Yeah. Hey, poofs.

What are you poofs doing? Last time I believe it was, hey, you poofs would really like this show called The Shire That's right The Shire That was your last one I thought I was on a roll with Shire jokes and I put America's got the wire we've got the Shire Then I tried to write a joke about Sending members of the wire to the Shire

To sort them out Wasn't very good You just got abusive instead Sending black eyes machine guns to the Shire Not a great idea Back to Pete Sharkey instead. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Setting black eyes and machine guns to the shy. Not a great idea. Back to Pete Sharkey. Look, I want to get more drunk stories

out of Pete Sharkey because it's... He's from Geelong. You've got Irish in you and there's... It takes control of you. You're like...

Do you still drink a lot now? No, I'm good now. I'm really good. So between the ages of 18 and 25 you should have drank a lot. Yeah, mental. Just, you know,

there was nothing else to do in Geelong. So it was every weekend just get on. Go to Lambie's? You used to go to Lambie's? It used to be called Last Chance Lambie's

because it's on a Sunday night. You hadn't pulled. We should explain Lambie's. You had your last chance. Everyone knows it. Nick Cody's been there. Nick Cody's done a gig there. The Sphinx?

Did you used to go to the Sphinx, the big hotel? No, never. Oh, yeah, once to watch Martin St. James. Oh, the hypnotist. Yeah, went on stage. Did you react well to the... No, I wasn't hypnotized, but I was too embarrassed to get off stage. Is that what happens at hypnotists?

Because that's all I hear. People get up there and go, oh, I think we should do this. This is the right thing to do. I'll tell you a story. I did Midday, right? Stand up on Midday in the 90s. Oh, did you? I did it twice.

Ray Martin? Deron Hinch. Right. Deron Hinch hosted Midday. Did he? Yeah, for like a year, two years. Yeah. It wasn't the peak times, but Jeff Harvey was still there on the piano.

Yeah. And I went back. I'll tell you what. He's turned up in the talented Mr. Ripley a few times. I reckon. And he, anyway, so one of those guys was on. I'll tell you what, he's turned up in the talented Mr. Ripley a few times. I reckon. And he, anyway, so one of those guys was on, I think it was one of those St. James, because he's got a son or a brother does it as well. Yeah, Shane's the son, but he was massive in the UK.

Oh, yeah. Marty. So I'm backstage and there were all these guys there and I said, what are you guys doing here? And this guy goes, oh, we're with Martin St. James. I go, really? And he goes, yeah, we respond well to his hypnotism. Oh.

I'm like, what? And so the next thing I think they have to go sit in the audience and one of them is a chalk. And I'm like, Okay, okay. So he's like, You come from the car.

Yeah, they're all plants, basically. But they respond well. We respond well. Respond well. I've got to get some of those people that respond well in my comedy festival crowd. Oh, yeah.

Same here. What are you guys doing out here? We respond very well. Two Carl's jokes. Carl, yeah. Come along. I need some people that respond well. Carl Changler's 2013 festival show.

Come along. I went on Midday twice. Midday twice. And the first time was really good. Good crowd. And, you know, when you start, I'd only been doing sound for maybe four years. I had a great three to five minutes that I'd, you know, push my 20 into five. Yeah. All the good crowd. And, you know, when you start, I had only been doing stand-up for maybe four years. I had a great three to five minutes that I'd, you know, pushed my 20 into five.

Yeah. All the good stuff. And they said, oh, can you come back in two weeks' time? I'm like, yeah, no worries. Came back the next time, it was terrible. Terrible. Would have been an ideal crowd, though, a bunch of 70-year-old people being bussed in.

Yeah, well, no, they were all right. They were all right. But the second time, they were mainly Japanese tourists. Oh, right. And the guy came up to me and said, oh, look, the audience is terrible. They were all right. But the second time, they were mainly Japanese tourists. And the guy came up to me and said, oh, look, the audience is terrible. They're going to bump you. And then he went, oh, hang on, no, you're on. So I went out there.

And did you open with good morning poofs? Yeah, good day, poofs. The only reason that didn't work was because they were Japanese. Japanese, oh, yeah, yeah. They didn't get the reference. I didn't know the Japanese word for poof. Konnichiwa, homosex. I don't know.

What are you guys? I don't know. Why didn't you the Japanese word for poof. Konnichiwa. I don't know. What are you guys? I don't know. Why didn't you use the cough button? So, Pete, you were on stage during a hypnotist, but you didn't actually know how to get hypnotized. You didn't respond well. I went up with my brother and another mate, and it was all happening. And then it was like, oh, well, I'll just act. Yeah.

There was things like, pretend you're at the races and your horse is about to win. So I was like, I can handle that. It was cheering and stuff. But then it started like, oh, well, I'll just act. Yeah. There was things like pretend you're at the races and your horse is about to win. So I was like, I can handle that. It was cheering and stuff. But then it started to get really provocative. Like, all right, you're in the room with a stripper and I fucking got my parents in the audience and I'm like, I can't.

No, no, no. Get off. Yeah, his assistant kept coming over and I was whispering to her, I'm not hypnotized. And then he came over and clicked his fingers and was like, fuck this. Put my head down again. And then it was getting worse and worse.

And I'm like, I stood up out of my seat and said, I'm not hypnotized. And so they escorted me. Good on you. And I bought the VHS that you get. Oh. Have you still got it? Yeah. It's so funny.

Oh, man. It's embarrassing. It is. Yeah, it's good. That sounds good. I like that they offered you the chance to buy a VHS with you acting like that on it. Why? That's amazing.

So they were filming that and then selling him afterwards. Yeah. Because you'd think it should be like, you know, if on Space Mountain when people get their tits out, it just gets deleted. Yeah. You'd think it would be like that. Why would they delete that? They just want no evidence of it.

Yeah. That's bizarre. So I bought it and we watched it back. Because my brother and his mates, they were so funny. So my brother's mate would always come into the house and I'd get the VHS and shove it in and make him watch it. He would just have a tantrum. He couldn't handle it.

Did you buy the video on the night? You could buy it on the night? Yeah. Because they'd have like about- Eight video recorders. Yeah. And just stacked and just high churning out all these videos. Oh, man.

We've got to do this. I bought it. I was obsessed with hypnosis when I was growing up. Really? Got Martin to sign it and everything. You know Rowan Gazard and The Amazing Gazard? He used to be a comic and he does hypnotism now. You'd surely come across The Amazing Gazard.

Is he the 90s version of Nick Cody? Yes. Anyway, he learned hypnotism and he now does it as a job. Yeah, I don't know. You can learn it. I just like how you're that into hypnotism and you loved the show so much that you got him to sign the videotape even though it didn't work on you. Yeah.

Like you've been there and you know it's a fraud and you're still that into it. Oh, no, because my brother and mate were on it, so that was the big highlight. And they got hypnotised, though. Yeah. They were deep, were they? Very deep. Wow. You get a ticket to go back to his show, but he's not in town for another 12, 18 months.

Because you respond well to it. I met your brother on midday, I think. He doesn't have a Japanese brother. Chucky, you were quite into stuff like that. So you're into hypnotism. You're into like, you used to go to like self-help stuff and stuff as well. Oh, really? Yeah, but I was like linked with-

Anthony Robbins. Yeah, really? Yeah, but I was like linked with where I was working. Anthony Robbins? Yeah, I went to that. Forum? Up in Sydney at the big- No, but you do the forum. Have you done forum? No. That's like self-help. Not landmark.

That might be similar. I don't know. No, I don't know. You'd meet someone in the 80s and go, hi, how's it going? I'm great. You go, oh, they've done forum. Yeah.

Straight away you would pin them. They've done forum. Because I think they can do anything. So which ones did you go to? Oh, just the one in Sydney. Because where I was working, all my done four of them. Yeah. Straight away, you pin them. They've done four of them. Because I think they can do anything. So which ones did you go to? Oh, just the one in Sydney. Because where I was working, all my work were into it. And they were like, oh, come up and do it. We'll pay for you and everything.

I'm like, oh, okay. And yeah, that was fucking four days of hypnosis. That was just full on. Do you have to catch people sharing exercises? Yeah, and just hugging people. It's like you need such an incubation of high intense. Yeah, emotion. Emotion, yeah, yeah. Like I was swapping details with everyone. Like, we'll catch up next week and we'll make all this happen. Yeah, and just hugging people. It's like you're in such an incubation of high intense.

Emotion, yeah. Like I was swapping details with everyone like, we'll catch up next week and we'll make all this happen. If fucking nothing happened. Nah. We'll go to a movie together. But that's like, I went and saw a therapist once because when I broke my leg, I was taking the piss out of Nick Riewoldt. Went and saw a therapist when he lost the grand final.

I'm like, oh, come on, man up. And so as a joke, the radio station. Yeah, exactly. Sent me to a joke, the radio station. Yeah, exactly. Sent me to a therapist, but this woman was not joking. She was a serious therapist. I had to go like for three sessions and sit there. And she'd just stare at you. And so she just goes, so, how are you feeling?

And you just go, oh, yeah, I'm all right. And you'd start making stuff up. You were not conductive to her therapy. No. What was your relationship like with your dad? Well, yeah, he was a good dad. Yeah. Was he home a lot?

Well, no, he was not. And then she'd just try and dig this thing. You're like, what's. Did she, did she heal your leg? I wish she did. No, no. It was, but it was, you know, they try and get, people love therapy though, but I don't know.

Didn't do anything for me. But you're a get up and go now guy, Sharky. So you've done all right for the old. Well, Dave Hughes, I remember going to see him when he lived in his flat. He shared it with about three or four other comedians. Now, is this for real or was this just on your old Facebook profile? This was with Marty Lappin. He was like the 1990s Nick Cody.

It was like with Marty Lappin. He was like the 1990s Nick Cody. And there was CJ Fortuna. He was like the 80s Nick Cody. Anyway, but Hughes, he had in his bed. I don't know why I was in his bedroom, but in his bedroom, he had like things on his wall like saying, you can do it. You're a winner and shit like that.

And I'm like, what's all this bullshit? And he goes, oh, yeah, I'm into self-help books. I'm into it. Yeah. Well, it helped him. I lived with CJ for a year. You lived with CJ? Yeah.

It was my first when I moved to Melbourne. Oh, my God. Was he into those books too? Oh, no. No. Just bongs. He'd like to. Yeah. A book on bongs.

Did he go to a forum on bongs? And he woke up in a Cheech and Chong movie? Hey, man. Oh, I love Cheech and Chong. They're funny. Anyway. Interesting. You've got a good video.

I thought you were going to say you've got a DVD out. My bad, Jess. What's the other story about you that I think you've done? I think you've done it in a show about you being an extra in a film where you're in a crowd scene and you didn't know the context of the scene you were doing when you filmed it. Oh, yeah. On the Beach.

Remember the movie? Yeah. Man, Frankston. Yeah, did a remake. Yeah, with Brian Brown in it. Was it Brian Brown? Yeah, Brian Brown. Amanda Sante. Yeah, did a remake. Yeah, with Brian Brown in it. Wasn't it Brian Brown? Yeah, Brian Brown. And Amanda Sante.

Oh, really? From Eye of the Jury. Yeah. Judge Dredd, wasn't he? Yeah, Judge Dredd. Yeah, right. I remember it more as Eye of the Jury. What happened?

All right. I didn't want to cut Carl off, but then he stopped. I thought you were going to, so I let you. Yeah. They had a – so I was just like a dude on the submarine, so all I had to do was run up and down and pretend I was a part of the submarine. What do you call those guys? Yeah, Navy.

Crew member. Submarine crew member. Torpedo guy. They just had all these tense scenes where we'd be running back and forth, cameras all over the place, and then they – like the film basically is we were trying to travel around the world and try and find clean oxygen that we could bring the sub up and clean and live happily ever after.

So they bring it through. And then, you know, because they're having all this running around, I never knew what the film really was about. I watched it on telly and then I'm watching it there with my family and they had this like submarines come up and then Amanda Sante's character gets on and goes, guys, goes guys we've got you know we've got clean air and we're in melbourne australia and we could tell you a couple of things you know they have funnel web spiders they're dangerous they'll kill you and they've got you know these snakes by you and lastly they've got this thing called the beaver they've got beaver on chapel street fucking beaver on

chapel street and then the camera goes straight on my face and I'm doing these massive fist pumps. And it's just, it looks so retarded. I'm sitting there with my family and it's like, yeah, beaver on Chapel Street and then just a full shot of my head on there doing pump actions. I had no idea that that was all part of the film. It reminds me of the time I was on Stingers.

Were you really on Stingers? Yeah, I played a drug dealer. Oh, what else do you play on Stingers? Well, that's right drug dealer Oh, what else do you play on Stingers? Well, that's right As my father pointed out Bloody, you died before the opening credits Which was true I died in a hotel room with a hooker From a cocaine overdose

That was my part Really? Yeah, so it was So what happened was that I lay on the bed And I had a big moustache I'd grown a moustache for the role And I was wearing a trackie and I lie on the bed and this lady of the night

knelt over me and I said nice fun bags, chow down I'm Mr. Happy. And then I died. I had an overdose. Famous last words. Yeah, I know. It was embarrassing for mum and dad because they told it when I was on it. You know, like, it was, oh, embarrassing.

Is that on YouTube? I don't, you know, I've got a copy of it at home. I was on it. You know, like, it was, oh, embarrassing. Is that on YouTube? I don't, you know, I've got a copy of it at home. I should put it on. Oh, you definitely should. I should.

I've got it somewhere. Yeah, I was on Stingers. I've been on a few. Oh, what else was I on? I'm trying to think. Have you done,

because I love it when you see stand-ups turn up on dramatic. I saw Greg Fleet the other night. I don't know if this is a sequel. I think it's not. Not Neighbours?

No. No, he's in a new thing. Fleet, he's going to be in the next season of is a secret. I think it's not. Not Neighbours? No. No, he's in a new thing. Fleety's going to be in the next season of Underbelly. Yeah, that's great. How big's his putt?

I think he's like a real, real, real baddie. Yeah, he wouldn't be a cop. Unless he's in deep cover. Yeah, he's not in deep, deep cover. Fleety. 20 years of deep cover.

Deep cover, yeah. Incredibly deep. Yeah, he told me that too. So, yeah, I don't know if it's public knowledge, but that doesn't matter. I'm sure we'll be fine. If Channel 9 Legal are listening to this, we'll edit it out later. No, we're talking about something else. Hey, is there people? Hang on, hang on.

No one's turned up from the future. Oh, what? Hang on. What, we've given them an extra 15 minutes. Oh. Boring. It's annoying. Hang on.

No, hang on. Actually, no, there is some. Some people, some. It's annoying. Hang on. No, hang on. Actually, no, there is some. Some people, some aliens. No, there's not. No, sorry. We could have really had some fun there. We could have done a bit of character work. Yeah.

We could have done a bit of improv gear. I know. Maybe another time. Yeah. Hang on, hang on. A drunk 70-year-old Pete Sharkey just stumbled in. I'm from the future. Let go.

There's no movies in here mate Fuck off Hey guys I went to the Royal Melbourne show today Oh you got a show I got you all show bags I got you each Oh yes

Don't give us a cheap one mate I got you each a Birdie Beetle show That's the cheapest one That's a dollar That's a dollar Two dollar one Oh that's alright It's got some redskins in it

Awesome Thanks for that Ideally I had The plan was I wanted to go around That's a dollar. That's a dollar. $2 one. Oh, that's all right. It's got some Redskins in it. Awesome. Thanks for that. Ideally, the plan was I wanted to go around and I wanted to actually get a specific individual show bag for each of you. I was going to get the complete idiot show bag for Carl. I was going to get the Zoo Weekly show bag for you, Dave. And then I was going to get the talented Mr. Ripley show bag for me. But the problem was two of those things combined, they kind of cost way too much for a joke

and then the other one doesn't exist. And plus you can't fit a slab in a show bag. But the Birdie Beetle, for listeners overseas or whatever, the Birdie Beetle is a show bag. It's an agricultural show. Has anyone got a red lollipop? Yeah, I have. You want one? Can I swap?

Thanks. It is a show bag. It's based around the lolly, the birdie beetle. It's the cheapest bag at the show. It's based around a Russell Gilbert routine. I want a birdie beetle. It's a great routine. It's $2.

It's the cheapest thing at the show, and it's gotten to the point now where you actually cannot buy the Birdie Beetle anywhere else but in its own show bag. Really? It doesn't exist outside of the show bag. Yeah. Really? You can't get Birdie Beetles anymore anywhere else? No. Just only in the show bags, as far as I know. It's like that Morrow bars from Cadbury. You can't get them

outside of the favourites. So there is somewhere a machine still making bite-sized Morrow's but not normal-sized moros. I'm going to take this home and show the kids tomorrow. Hey, I went to the show last night, kids. And you weren't invited. Yeah, I paid $30 to get in, and then I bought a $2 show bag, and then I left. And I've eaten all the contents.

You went with Rowe. You know what's funny? From back as far as I can remember when I was a little kid, when you'd go to the show, Bertie Beadle show bag, $2, cheapest bag at the show. Now this year they've got Bertie Beadle. It used to be a dollar. Oh, no, maybe back in Steve Weiser's day, but I don't remember it being a dollar.

Yeah. You know show bags were free originally? What? Yeah, they're free. Show bags don't exist anywhere else, do they? In any other country. Like, it's a very foreign idea everywhere else. Yeah.

They have them at Sydney, though. The Sydney show and Adelaide show. That's in Australia. Oh, that's right. To be fair. I think you're right. Yeah, they're originally free. They were sample bags.

They were free. Oh, okay. It's a sample bag that you pay for for any internationalist. But the Birdie Beetle, it's always been the cheapest bag. This year, they've got the Birdie Beetle, $2. They've got the Birdie Beetle Gold, $3. The gold class. And then they've got the Bertie Beetle Platinum, $5.

And what do you get in the extra ones? A handjob from Bertie Beetle. Can you say that? That's all you get. You just get more Bertie Beetles. That's what you get, Dave, for $5. I would have appreciated the platinum. A handjob.

A giant Beatles. Maybe on stingers, but not. I want to get the Mr. Happy show bag. Yeah. And chow down on it. Chow down on it, man. Big wiener schnitzel in there for you to chow down on. Because I love some of the show bags.

You can still get the Mafia show bag. Yep. The Mafia show bag. The Army show bag. Yep can still get the Mafia show bag, which is the Mafia show bag. The Army show bag. I like the Birdie Beetle one. It's $2 still. It's been $2 all my life, but you just get less and less stuff every day, obviously. What have you got in this one?

You've got three Birdie Beetles. You've got a lollipop, and you've got five Redskins. Some Redskins and a Milko. A Milko. Yeah. You've got about $0.30 worth of mixed lollies in the old language. Milko sounds like something that kid would call you on his blog. Yeah, hey, Milko.

Yeah, yeah, Milko. Yeah, Milko. Milko was always the inferior partner to the Redskin. My son actually asked me, do Redskins come in any other flavors? And I said Milko, but there used to be a Spearmint one too. It truly is your son. Yeah, it was on there. It was a spearmint one too. It truly is your son. Yeah it wasn't there. It wasn't there

it was a spearmint one. It is my son. Spearminto. I don't know I can't remember. The Nicody bar. Dave you got

plans to go to the show this year? Yeah. I went last year with my dad and my three kids and my mother-in-law. Hang on did your

dad take you to the show? Yeah he did. We met him. Because he said I'm going to go by myself. I said, what are you going to do, Dad? You can't go by yourself. You know, walking around by yourself.

It looks a bit sus. Yeah, yeah, yeah. As he would say. Because he used to go and- Handing out sample bags. Well, he used to go and do the scout stand for an hour and then go and walk around. I'm like, not in your uniform, are you? And so I said, come with me.

Oh, that's true because your dad is a scout? Oh, he's a scout leader. Yeah, he's a scout leader. Yeah. So he did used to do the scout stand and then walk around because he got free entry, you see. He put the scout uniform on. Oh, the scout leaders do have a bit of free entry, don't they?

They get free entry everywhere. Boo. Milko. Yeah, Milko. Yeah, yeah, Changlar. I said, come with me and the kids, you know. You've got grandkids. So he came along and also then Betty, my mother-in-law, came too.

So it was fun. It was good. Yeah, it is good. I know. I enjoy the show now, and I hadn't been for years and years, but I like now, and I feel like I'm slowly turning in my dad because I go now and I go to the animals first. Yeah, right.

That's what I did. Yeah. And that's what they would always say. Let's go and see the animals. I'm like, the animals aren't in show bags. What are you talking about? I wanted the show bags when I was a kid. I didn't even want the rides.

I go to show bags. Really? Yeah, when I was a kid. Yeah. Show bags number one. That's all. I went today for the first time Like as As a not child Going with a parent

And yeah I was the same Because there was a dog You know the dog shows Or whatever Yeah yeah yeah The dog judging For some reason

It was pug day And pug is like My favourite kind of dog And I just went I could just sit I'd be fine with the Price of admission Just sitting here

Watching pugs walk around All day And that was I had that same thing Where I went Wow It was like I've changed. Did you get with your girlfriend?

Yeah. Did you get lost and then make an announcement? We've got a young Tommy Daslow here at the Lost Children's Tent. If his parents aren't here to pick him up, Dovo Neal's dad's going to have him at the Scout Tent. There's so many bits of it, though. You go when you're a little kid and you go with your family and it's, oh, we get show bags and lollies.

And then, like, going as an adult, you just see it in completely different eyes. Oh, carny folk. You see the carny folk for what they are. Or even there's like a bar bit that me and my girlfriend sat in and had a drink. And there's just parents there with their kids just knocking them back. And the kids are, like, so bored. And you go, you know what? You've got kids.

This is just a day where you don't drink. This is just one day where you can go without getting pissed because the kids are just going insane. It is a bogan magnet, though, the show. You see people there that you haven't seen for, you know, you've never seen people there for years. Where do they come from? Well, man, like we walked through the big show bag pavilion,

like the big shed where there's all the show bag stalls. And, man, if you are in any way lax about your contraception methods and your birth control, walk through there for five minutes. You'll be just rolling a frang-a-ron in anticipation before you've even left. Like, it was just, I just, man, I. I'm genuinely disappointed that you've gone already and I didn't know. I want to go now. I've been the last couple of years and I need to go with someone else.

But the thing was, like, I hadn't been. My dad. Were many people there? A serious question. Was it packed or not? It's only been on for a day. So I don't think a lot of people. We just went today because it's like the only chance we get to go while it's on.

So I think a lot of people haven't clocked that it's on yet. Yeah, clicked on to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it was, I mean, I wouldn't go. I don't know. I wouldn't go again. Like, I liked going today as like a nostalgic kind of fun. And, you know, it wasn't go again. I liked going today as a nostalgic kind of fun. It wasn't even ironic.

It's fun to just buy into something without irony. Did you get on the Mad Mouse? No, we didn't go on any rides. Did you go to CWA Pavilion? Yep, we were there. Did you get scones? We did not get scones. Did you go to the food bit and get cheese on toast?

No, you know what? We really fucked the food bit. Food bit's great. But you know what? We really fucked the food bit. Like, we, yeah. The food bit's great. But you know when you get paralyzed by choice and you kind of, you make a decision too early and you go, nah, that looks pretty good, and then you're eating it, walking around, and then seeing all these other great things that you could have gotten instead. I'm genuinely tempted to go just for cheese on toast because it's the only place I can think of.

It's the only place you can get it. Where's that? At the CWA? No, no, no. In the food tent there. They have like a sunny crust tent or something like that. Like there's some bread that they just, no, no, I think it's the cheese. And they just go cheese on toast and they just continually make cheese on toast.

So you can go and buy main meals or whatever, but people are just lining up for $2 cheese on toast. It's the only place I can think of I've ever seen that sells cheese on toast. Yeah. I mean, I know my kitchen makes it. You can make it at home, yes. You can make it very easily at home. You can get a recipe card at the end of the day and come home and make it.

It was fun. It was fun to just buy into it. We were sitting in the stands at one point just, you know. Jet Pack Man? Was Jet Pack Man on? There's a guy in the jet pack who flies in the main arena. He was on late. He was on like at night.

Well, you didn't go last year because last year you were going to come and then you stood me up as I was going to the show. We were going to all go with Geraldine Hickey. I think it was two years ago. Oh, was it? Yeah. Okay. So it ended up being Geraldine Hickey

went and watched BMX bike stunts and stuff like that and ate cheese on toast. Yeah. Wood chopping. What about the wood chopping? The O'Tools? No. I didn't see the wood chopping.

I liked it. Yeah, the animals. The animals get my fancy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's awesome. It was good, though, because we sat in the stands at one point and just had a drink and just people watching.

And there was no one else in the stands except for this young couple who would have been like 14, 15, a few rows behind us, just macking on in a fashion that I have not seen for many, many years. in a fashion that I have not seen for many, many years. It reeked of two kids who are at school and they've got strict parents and they've got a lot of siblings at home, so this is like the only time that they have alone. But, man, it was like really intense. I thought they were at the big day out, man.

What's the ride when you get inside the cage? It's not the Mad Mouse. You're inside a cage and it swirls around and the cages twirl around as well. That's my favourite ride. Is it? The zipper. All the time. Oh, man. That is the best ride. Have you ever blacked out and woken up in that? Yeah. Waking up on around as well. That's my favourite ride. Is it? The zipper. All the time. Oh, man.

That is the best ride. Have you ever blacked out and woken up in that? Waking up on a ride. Waking up on a ride. That would be good. I think they just re-enact one of Sharky's blackouts, the zipper. The zipper. Yeah.

How long until the show gets the Sharky? Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. So you know how like when you go to a restaurant or whatever, you get, you know, at the end you get tips and stuff like that. The zipper is just the carnies making their own tips.

Oh, yeah, the money falls out. Yeah, the money falls out. And then people go, oh, I think I dropped some. And they go, nah. And they just keep it. Yeah. I've seen it heaps of times. My mates have gone in and tried to argue with them.

No, my money really fell out. And he's like, nah. So Dave, when you're at the show, what kind of parent are you at the show? Do your kids get a show bag budget? We have them on a lead for a start. We have them on a lead. No, they get to choose one each. Okay.

They choose one each. Up to a certain value? Or are they just really taking you for a ride? I only know the name of one of your kids, Dave, because every time I talk to you on the phone, it's like, oh, yeah, and what else is it? Barney? Yes, Barney. Bar and what else is it? Barney? Yes, Barney.

Barney. Put it down, Barney. He's the youngest. Yeah, so anyway, what else is going on? Yeah, yeah, that's Barney. Yeah, well, he's the youngest, so that's why. And he's home all the time. Right.

Because he's 27 with learning disabilities. No, he's three. So, yeah, no, there's Jasper and Kitty as well. Right. I can't believe you haven't called your kid a poof yet. Don't you love him? Of course, young poofs. No, he's three. So, yeah, no, there's Jasper and Kitty as well. Right. But no, you get, yeah, you. I can't believe you haven't called your kid a poof yet. Don't you love him? A poof, yeah, a poof, young poof.

No, you, yeah, yeah, yeah. One each, you say, one each. And what happened this time, I went and got the show bag. I said, no, we're not going to, because it was like a massive line. Was there a line to get the show bags today? To get into the pavilion, yeah. Into the show bag hall. Yeah.

All of show bags. All of show bags. Yeah. And so, my mother-in-law took the kids to the animals and dad, I don't know, did some scouting stuff. I don't know what happened. But they want to go on the rides and stuff like that. They want to go on those.

Yeah. But Barney was behaving so badly, he'd get escorted off by a carny. I've got a photo of it. The carny. Because he's too little to do that with a carny. So when I play the whistle, you've got to get off. And he wouldn't get off. So the carny had to grab him.

Good times, good times. When you were a kid, Carl, did you go for, and you too, Pete, did you go to the show when you were a kid? Geelong show only. Never been to Melbourne. Oh, the Geelong? You've never been? Never ever been, ever.

Not to the Melbourne, no. Wow. Just Geelong. Take the day off tomorrow, we'll go. We'll start drinking now. Yeah. Wake up in the show bag pavilion. Were you guys with show bags?

Did you go for the lollies or did you go for the toys? Because I was never interested in the lollies. I wanted stuff where I had mates who would just go crazy and just have a stockpile of lollies for months. I wanted toys and I wanted- You wanted Spider-Man. Well, I grew up with my parents running shops, so I always had easy access to lollies.

So I didn't have parents that ran a toy shop. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would go in whatever's popular on TV, get the show bag for that. Get the Knight Rider one. Yeah, it seemed like a big waste to me to not get stuff where you got. Get the Stingers one. Stingers one. Fun bags.

Fun bags. It's not a show bag. It's a fun bag. Get a Mr. Happy doll. Get some lollies in it Get a Mr. Happy all day sucker on there I remember going along And getting the You and your stupid mate show bag

That was a good year That was a bumpy year at the world I got a nugget show bag That's a good one That's a good one I've got a nugget hat somewhere I did a gig in Mildura recently, and this guy said, you've got to come and meet my daughter.

She's the biggest fan of the Nugget. Now, the Nugget was a movie you wrote? No, I didn't write it. I was just in it. I was in it with Eric Banner and Stephen Curry. And the three made leads. And it's about three guys who find a gold Nugget. And it's not about KFC or, you know, whatever.

It's a good film. It's actually a good film. It's not bad. But I just thought, he goes, my daughter loves the Nugget. And it's not about KFC or, you know, whatever. It's a good film. It's actually a good film. It's not bad. But I just thought, he goes, yeah, my daughter loves a Nugget. She's worn out the VHS. I thought, how retarded is she going to be? Like, but she was nice. She was like a normal 19-year-old girl.

She even, she taped that movie over the top of the Martin St. James VHS. Worn out the VHS. Worn out. No, Sharky. Worn out, the VHS. Worn out. Like when you read Basic Instinct. Yeah. There's all these bits of Dave O'Neill. The paws. Dave O'Neill spreads his legs and it goes all blurry.

That's where they find the nugget. Oh, man. Great memories. The blur over Mr. Happy. Mr. Happy. Great, great, great memories. What about just before we get out of here, I want to bring this up. I've got my housemates at the moment doing two things that I reckon are two of the worst

annoying things that a housemate can do. I want the opinion of the room. Not washing the dishes? No. This is, okay, number one. Watching you have sex? That's not annoying. Not replacing the toilet of the room. Okay, not washing the dishes? No, this is, okay, number one. Watching you have sex? That's not a playing line. Not replacing the toilet roll?

Close. So you go in there, toilet roll empty, like the discarded roll on the hook, with the new roll just on the floor next to it. How hard is it to just put the bloody roll on the thing, you know? Sometimes they put the roll and they try and squash it on. Yeah. With the cardboard still on there. I mean, that is ridiculous.

You've gone into the cupboard. You've gotten the roll. What are you doing? You know the trick in Shed House used to be you'd leave like one sheet of paper hanging on there. No, there was still some left. There's still some left, guys. Someone could use that.

The other one, I kind of always end up being the only person in the house who buys milk. Because I'm the last one to get up. It's four of us in the house. I'll be the last one to get up. The last person to use the milk has gone, oh, I don't want to use all of it. That would be rude. They needn't

have bothered. There is like a puddle. There is like maybe two eyedroppers that end up... I end up having to go to the shops anyway. It drives me absolutely nuts. Yeah, they used to kill me because I'd have a housemate that was a real drainer on all that sort of stuff and he'd just go, because a litre of milk's $1.50 or whatever, so it's such a small thing to bother about, but you have to do it when he does it every day and you get up and you go, the point of milk is to have it there and not have to walk out to buy more

to have cereal, right? Yeah. And so you get up and there's none there. So it's like, I'm sorry, you're going to have to, you know, if you pinch the mincemeat or whatever, that's fine because during the day you can go and replace it. Yeah, yeah. First thing in the day, you've got to leave me some milk.

I tell you, have it live until you have – I would rather have none than have that little – Yeah, true. That token effort of leaving a little, which is, yeah, like you've tried to, but you just accept the fact that you're using it up. It's like getting out of having to leave the house and go and replace it. You haven't lived till you've had water on your Cocoa Pops, though.

I've done that before. I used a bit of milk in what I cooked for dinner tonight, and I was just looking at what was left and going, oh, that's me going to the shops in the morning. Do you know what? I used to have a housemate. This is the worst thing. I used to try not to live with mates because it never sort of ends well.

It never works out well, no. You start off as mates and you end off as not so much mates. I had a mate that I moved in with and I should have known better, and it sort of degraded and degraded and it wasn't good, and by the end we were having a house party and one that I don't think I was, you know, told about, but there was a house party happening and it got halfway through and this guy was just like, I was in my room, I think at one stage and this guy come in and no, it was in the kitchen and he goes, oh yeah.

So it's, you know, it's a good house, isn't it? And I'm like,'t it i'm like oh it's all right he goes uh yeah it's a shame you're uh your mate's moving out i'm like oh it's his farewell party yeah yeah and then so i just found out that like that way and then he goes oh didn't you know and i go no i didn't he's like oh i just assume you knew because he was out there telling everyone else oh right so then. So then anyway, I was like, nice one. And then he sort of went, oh, and felt bad and disappeared. And then the housemate came back, you know, 10 minutes later, who'd obviously been told and went, oh, oh, yeah, yeah. I was going to tell you.

I'm like, yeah, I bet you were. Just after the people out there that you've met three times. Down at 21 Arms in Ballarat. And anyway, I just said just said man I don't care Because we weren't getting on at that stage So just let me know when you're actually doing it So I've got some notice Because he didn't have anything lined up or anything

Just give me some notice because you've got to get a housemate in Yeah yeah no worries So we never spoke about it the whole time This was like two months later or something And I said to him It was like a Saturday morning I said oh yeah yeah what are you doing tonight

are you going out tonight yeah yeah yeah do you want to go for a beer tonight whatever yeah yeah okay we'll go for a beer tonight had a beer he's like what are you doing do you want to go for a beer tomorrow

nah I'm busy tomorrow okay okay so we went out whatever come back next morning I wake up he's moved house is gone

oh really and I walk out and his parents are there moving the last things out of the house. Are the parents moving in? Because that'd be all right. And I'm like, oh, and they're like, oh, yeah, it's a, you know, the parents are like, oh, sorry, Carl, you know how it's all ended.

So, yeah, we'll see you next time, I guess. And this guy was a mate beforehand. Yeah, this is a mate beforehand. And he was just gone. That was it. And I was like mate beforehand. Yeah, this is a mate beforehand. And he was just gone. That was it. And I was like, right. And the thing was, I worked with his girlfriend at the time. So I'd be going to work with his girlfriend,

and I'd just say to the girlfriend, by the way, your mate owes me a month's worth of rent. Because you're supposed to get. But he was just one of those people that couldn't do confrontation or couldn't be a good bloke. I don't know. He truly was the talented Mr. Ripley. Yeah, that might have been it.

There was a twist. He might have moved house drunk. I'll let him off then. Yeah, that's fair enough. He can't be held accountable. Well, guys, that does bring us to the end of a little Dumb Dumb Club for another week. Dave O'Neill, Pete Sharkey, thank you very much for joining us.
