Hey mates, welcome once again into the little dum-dum club for another week. My name is Tommy Dasolo. Sitting opposite me, the other half of the program, Carl Chandler. G'day dickhead. We are back in the country, back in Australia. This is our first episode back in the, what is it, five? I think five weeks of shows that we did from over there. Thank you very much to everyone who listened to those

and who sent us nice things about them. People enjoyed the road trip episodes and the guests that we had in the States. It was a good time, wasn't it? Sure. You don't sound convinced. It was a long while ago now. Yeah. What have you been up to since we got back?

What's been happening? Well, we talked about going to the town of Chandler. I think America's a good place to go and buy clothes and stuff. Are you stocked up on clothes? Yep. It's very cheap over there. You do that thing where you buy stuff and it just looks good in the shop and then you get it home and then it's like, why did I buy it?

It looks like a good piece. It looks like a desirable item. But when it comes to the practicality of wearing something. But for me, even more so than that, even if it's not the greatest piece, I'll convince myself in my head like, oh, and every time I wear it, it'll be a great memory of this trip that I had. I think that that's going to get me over the line of wanting to wear it all the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've got that bad habit of saying like, I've bought numerous silver items of clothing over

the years. Just going, that looks like a good thing. What, silver? I've bought a silver jacket. What? Like, a giant silver jacket and a silver shirt. What? A silver shirt?

Yeah, a silver shirt. Like, shiny, like, silver. Yes, actually made of silver. Wow. That is remarkable. Because we're recording this in your house. Do you have it here? No, no, no.

My girlfriend made me throw it out. But you know what? I held on to it. Take it down to the pawn shop and get some cash back for that. I held on to it. I bought them about eight years ago. And I've only recently been convinced to throw them out. Because I keep going, what if it comes up handy one day?

What if I need a silver shirt? Yeah, and now is the time that you will get invited to a costume party where the theme is precious metals. Dress as someone who's a dickhead. So I think I sort of did that in America because I bought, and we talked about going to the town of Chandler, so I bought a couple of shirts that say Chandler, Chandler, Arizona. Yeah, which is your name. Yeah, which is my name.

Yeah. Yeah, which, again, looks like a good thing on the rack, because it's like, hey, that's my name. And now the practicality of wearing a shirt walking down the street with Chandler written on my chest, it just makes me look like I'm not completely fully abled. It just looks like I'm going up to people pointing at my shirt and going Chandler, that's me

now this is a funny thing for you to be saying because I believe I said this exact sentence to you in the shop while you were looking at the shirts, because you had two and then you wanted to go back and get a third like you, I think if you I wanted to get I wanted to get one for my mum at one stage

and then I went, that's not even really her name So what, because I've seen you wear the Chandler shirt a couple of times I've seen you since we got back, I think you've been wearing it one of those times but very sheepishly kind of covered up with the hoodie had I not known what the shirt already looked like I wouldn't have picked it

so I put it on and then I not known what the shirt already looked like I wouldn't have picked it yeah exactly yeah so I put it on and then I go oh I'm just hedging my bets yeah we should have just bought more of them

and sold them as merch for this show yeah that's kind of the idea of things for other people I should have stuck a dum-dum badge on top of it somewhere

yeah so I'm doing that so that's in the cupboard let's see if I wear that again yeah and the other thing is I bought like my girlfriend wanted me to buy a couple of bits of clothing for her. So I bought her like a running top, like a casual sort of hoodie.

Yep. And it was like pink, like fluoro pink because she's just going to wear it running. With Carl written on it and silver leaves. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Viviana written on the back. So that's what hoodies are for and shirts are for, aren't they? Don't you just get them with your name on it these days? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Viviana written on the back. So that's what hoodies are for and shirts are for, aren't they? Don't you just get them with your name on it these days? Yeah, identification.

Yeah, yeah. How else do you know they're yours? Yeah. What if something happens to you and police need to identify the fucking... Yeah, I mean, I went to put on this pink hoodie the other day and then I saw Viviana. I'm like, oh, that's not mine. That's the purple one with Chandler.

That's mine. So I... Did you just quickly, as a deviation Would your parents or would your mum Sew those name tags on your clothes when you were a kid? No My mum would do that, but she did it like She did it for a bit too long

Like she was still doing it when I was like 13 Like well beyond the age that you should be doing it Now it's not written on me now Well very quick I'll do this and then we'll introduce it Yes I guess So I got her that pink fluoro top It was pretty fluoro me. No, it's not written on me now. Well, very quick, I'll do this and then we'll introduce it. Yes, I guess. So I got her that pink fluoro top. It was pretty fluoro. And I bought another item of clothing that I saw

and I went, you know what, this is a good thing to buy. I think that looks good on the rack. I'm going to buy it. And then I'd get it off the rack and go, I'm never, never wearing that. I think it looks alright, but you know what, I'm never wearing it specifically because of the friends I have, because I'm just going to

cop so much shit if I ever wear it I'll go and get it now, this is not going to be good for the podcast, but you'll like it I'll introduce the guests while you're going and getting it so with us today, two returning guests first of all, you know him from the circle please welcome back onto the program, Danny McGinley welcome back

I'm known from the Circle. Well, you are. It's either that or you say, you know him from Everybody Dance Now. I don't think people know Everybody Dance Now from Everybody Dance Now. Yeah, so I've worked on two acts shows.

Yeah, big year for you. Yeah, it's going a bit mental. You're a kiss of death. We'll get to that later on. Also returning to the program, you know him as Mr. Miyagi on Problems on the ABC. He's the angriest podcast guest going around. Please welcome back onto the show, Ronnie Chang. What up, bro? All right, guys, I'm back.

What do you think? Wow. That is, that's, even though this is a podcast, I'm pretty sure the listeners can still see that through the radio. People's ears have set fire and I'm not quite sure why. What would you call it? A canary yellow?

I would call it banana in pyjama yellow. Your standard looking hoodie, white drawstring, white zip, but a bright yellow you know what it's very reminiscent of Breaking Bad

you know how they put when they're in the lab how they put the hazmat suits on it's that kind of yellow wow so you bought this did you ever think that you'd get away with this

like why did you spend money well that's what I mean that's exactly what I meant that's an object that looks good to me but I didn't think of the practicality of actually wearing clothing that's exactly what I I went that's an object that looks good to me but I didn't think of the practicality of actually wearing clothing

so I just bought it I went oh yeah and then I got it then I put it on and went I can never wear this outside the house I just can't believe it

I can't believe you didn't pick that when it was just on the rack that you needed to that's my problem that's what I said when do I when do I see a silver jacket

and go oh yeah I'm going to wear this jogging or whatever the silver jacket over the yellow hoodie. Now that would be a combo. To play angel's advocate, it really does bring out your eyes.

So this is what I did practically. So I went, I've got this, I put it on and went, and my girlfriend's like, well you're never wearing that. I'm like, oh yeah, cool. So you did it out of spite. No, no, no, no, no. She's just like, oh you can't actually wear that looks like there's something wrong with you. So...

Can you please now wear this every time we do the show? This is my podcast hoodie. I would love your girlfriend to be commentating you as you wore this as a fashion thing. This is Carl. He's wearing a yellow hoodie. It's part of his looks like there's something wrong with your selection. It's a very bizarre image because the bright colour is in stark contrast to your general gloomy demeanour.

It's just odd. It's like there's something wrong with it. It's very bright. So, because I've sort of decided in my head, well, I can't wear this around normal people, around people I know, because all I'm going to get is this everywhere I go. Yeah. So I went for a walk with my girlfriend the other day, and so she put on her,

coincidentally just put on her pink hoodie thing, and I wore this. Oh, look at you. You're a Florida grandparent. Yeah, but this, look, I didn't realise, but we've got so many looks, I'm like, oh, it's because we're wearing this stuff, because we look like we're both wearing high-vis. And it looks like

I've picked up on a construction site. I'm sweeping the streets and going, hey, you with the shovel, you look alright. How are you? How are you with me? Is that high-five going jogging? Yeah, yeah, exactly. You know what you could have done? This is kind of a waste,

because did you buy that in New York? Yes. Yeah, because I didn't see you bring it out on the trip for obvious, understandable,

but you really missed an opportunity because I think we talked about this on the show in Los Angeles on Hollywood Boulevard. There's all the people

dressed up as like Spider-Man. Yeah, yeah. You kind of look like, but there's always like the shit costumes like the people

who haven't, it's just like Spider-Man wearing tracksuit pants. Yeah, yeah. You could be like a shit banana, like a banana costume where you it's just like Spider-Man wearing track suit pants you could be like a shit banana like a banana costume where you've not

put quite enough effort into it it's very bright isn't it has anyone ever not regretted buying an Australian open t-shirt? well, I never have so, okay I went to Australia and opened

and I bought a t-shirt and at the time just like what you said it seemed like a good idea, it looked cool it looked like I could actually wear it out just unwearable this will remind me of the time I went to the tennis and everyone knows the Australian Open it'll be kind of a cool kitschy thing to wear out it's like as soon as the tournament ends

the t-shirt just becomes gross people do that with big day out t-shirts but I always think the irony of wearing it beyond the date will get it over the line. But then when it comes down to it, when I'm deciding what to wear, I'm like yeah, I could wear something that's kind of a joke or I could look half decent.

It's like you pick. It's a tough one I think even with band t-shirts where you go yeah, this is my message to everyone today. I like price. I do like fans that have put the effort into their band merch. Like, they design t-shirts. Like, they go out of their way to have t-shirts that just look like good shirts. And not just... When you see someone with just the text of, like, you know, whatever on there, that's lazy.

I don't like that. How's this? Speaking of my girlfriend, she told me whatever on the... Yeah. That's lazy. I don't like that. How's this? I, speaking of my girlfriend, she told me this, like, yesterday. She went on a flight a couple of days ago and she had this really good seat, like, up the front. She had plenty of leg room,

this really good seat, and then the stewardess came up and said, oh, there's been a, like, a mistake with the allocations. Would you be able to... And she was like really sheepish and weird about it. Can you swap seats? Is that all right?

And she's like, well, what do you say in that situation? Like, if you say no, do the air guards sort of lock you up or what? You know, you say yes to everything on a plane, surely. So she goes, oh, okay, well, you know what you're doing. So she got moved and then she realized she's moving over the person that she swapped with is this morbidly obese person and then as she's sitting in the seat she realizes that she's now sitting with another morbidly obese person what had happened was they put the two fattest people in the world next to each other.

And then they went, oh, this is actually tipping the plane over. We need to get one. Because you know, they do that. Have you ever seen that? When they go, you have to sit in the middle of the plane just to make sure that... Yeah, well, they'd put two massively, massively fat people on the one wing.

And they went, oh, we can't do that. So they put my girlfriend there instead. So now she's sitting next to this massive guy who's spilling into her seat. Literally, like she's telling me that the fat rolls are, like she had to go, excuse me, I want to use my headphone jack, but a roll of your fat is preventing me

from watching Magic Mike again. Now, just in case the listeners have forgotten, you are a man wearing a yellow track suit. Yeah, yeah, let's keep that up. So commenting on other people's appearances, I don't think is something people would like to do. Canary yellow is very slimming. I'm actually the man in question.

Although on airplanes, I think if the stewardess sheepishly tells you something, you kind of pick up the hint that something's not right because usually it's because they want you to move because the person next to you might be unstable and they need to take them down so they just go hey would you be okay because I've heard of that story where they go and this is particularly convincing given you're wearing these aviators

you look like an air marshal you look like Rong Cheng Hun why is everyone on this podcast dressing weird these days it's like one of those episodes of fucking hey hey it's Saturday where they get people to dress up yeah Chang-un. Why is everyone on this podcast resting weird these days? It's like one of those episodes of fucking Hey Hey It's Saturday where they get people to dress up. Yeah, McGillan's wearing a suit

because he's going to an audition after this. You know, I'm going to go on a limb here. I've been looking at this hoodie the whole podcast. It's okay. It's not too... I don't know.

Alright. Would you wear it, Ronnie? No, absolutely not. I like how ridiculously clean and shiny it is. But like you said before, the gloomy demeanour. But he's just... Carl just is the dictionary definition of unkempt. Yeah, exactly.

And it's such a nice dichotomy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That plane thing, though, we had a similar thing when we flew back from Los Angeles, meaning that Cody was sitting, Cody was the row in front of me in an aisle, in the middle aisle, on the aisle, middle row on the aisle. And across from him, there was a guy who had all his seats, who had the whole row to himself. All right. And this guy's just rejoicing, going,

come on, whole row to myself, I can lie down and sleep on this flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne, come on. And Cody's like, getting into it, going, oh, bro, you've scored the jackpot. You are a winner. Good one, man. And he's like, yeah, how good is this? And then, plane's just about to take off, and the student comes up to Cody and goes, we're going to have to get you to move into that aisle.

We're going to have to get you to move into that row with that guy. And Cody's just looking at the guy and then looks up at the steward and goes, I can't. And the guy's like, no, no, you have to. Because he's the only guy that's got a spare seat next to him. It's not fair. There's two people in this row. You're going to have to move.

And Cody's like, no know I don't want to. And the guy's like looking at him going, why is this happening? And then the guy's just gone, sir, you have to move. And so Cody just has to really sheepishly get up and just sort of go and sit in the row next to the guy and just be like, oh, I'm really sorry, man. And the guy was like, actually, even though he'd heard this whole thing the guy was actually a bit cut

he was like yeah okay yeah nah I guess that's fine and Cody's like man

I didn't have a choice the guy made me do this did anyone sit in Cody's seat no because they were like Cody's row was full so it was like we'll spread this out

so there's still only two people in this row also on the fat plane Also on the fat plane. Back on the fat plane. But how do they do that? So they go, when they're moving this fat person,

what are they saying to the person they're moving? I think he said, there's cake up the front. Oh my God. So, now, the in-flight meal today

is a KFC double down. Yeah. Only for these rows. Only for rows 1 till 12. Yeah, so this guy went up the front, and so my girlfriend had to sit next to the fat guy and was just like, oh, it was impeding everything. Everything, and it was that embarrassing where she literally had to go, can you move that row of yours?

Oh, God. She had to get her headphone jack in, and the guy was like, you know, really, not enjoying it and whatever, but that's know, that's his life, whatever. He's made his choice. Yeah, yeah. He's had a lot of good meals, he's fine. Yeah, yeah, he's made a lot of choices off the McDonald's menu. So, anyway, it gets to the end of the flight and, you know, given that the air stewardess had been so weird about the question and not sort of told her what's happening. And she's got there and gone,

oh, this is clearly what's happening. I couldn't tell you anything because you're really saying, can you come and sit next to the fat dude? So she gets to the end of the flight, goes to go outside of the plane, and the stewardess goes, thank you very much, and gives her a bottle of champagne. Oh, wow.

Fat tax. Yeah, so that's a nice reward for doing that. But it's also like celebrating sitting next to a really fat guy for a few hours. Like, it's like, wow, Laura, I'm going to, you know, I'm covered in fat man sweat. Pop the cork. Hooray. Where was she flying to? I think. Like, how long was the flight?

I'm not sure whether it was Sydney or Brisbane. Okay. Like how long was the flight? I'm not sure whether it was Sydney or Brisbane Okay The stewardess actually wanted her to baptise the family So it's like an hour long flight $50 bottle of champagne It's like $50 an hour for a bit of work

It's not bad I don't know if there's any $50 bottles of champagne on They just hand her a cask Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just like Tommy's story, I'm actually a firm believer. I'm a little bit superstitious with plane rides, and I actually believe in not quite airplane karma. I don't know what you call it, but I never prematurely celebrate.

I know, exactly. Yeah, that was Cody's mistake. That was this guy's mistake. You should not have celebrated the open. If you had just shut up, it would have happened. Well, on the way over there, me and Cody are sitting in aisles opposite each other. Cody's on the edge. He's got the two seats next to him empty.

And he's done that same thing. He's going, come on. And then the last person to rock in is this huge, huge bloke with his kid. The kid takes the window, so this huge guy's just sitting next to him and he's spilling over into his seat. And Cody, no subtlety, just turns to me and goes, oh, well, at least I'll get plenty of shoulder room for the next 12 hours.

That's good. He's there, by the way. The fat hasn't covered his ears. He's still a human being with feelings. So let's address this. We've talked on the show the last couple of weeks. Can we also address that you're the only one wearing earphones, so you're screaming. I know. I. So let's address this. We've talked on the show the last couple of weeks. Can we also address that you're the only one

wearing earphones so you're screaming the loudest of estimates. I know. I can probably take these off now. This feels weird. It doesn't feel like

a real thing anymore. Actually, how are my levels? Yeah, fine. Yeah, fine. Like the angry podcast. Yeah, you told us that you were going to do

this angry podcast before the show. What are you like normally? What's the mild podcast character? Yeah, the the show is this what are you like normally what's the mild podcast character yeah it's levels are important what are you talking about

that was a serious question please stop yelling at me calm down about the levels so we talked about this the last couple of weeks on the show Podcast City the dream is gone

we've been kicked out of our old recording studio technically we were kicked out 11 months ago. We were sneaking in undercover. Oh, you're the cheese TV of podcasts. Yeah, sure, okay. So now

we're recording. This is our first one back. It was kind of acceptable while we were away that we'd have to make concessions, even if we hadn't been kicked out of the studio. It would have been the same deal. We turned the Saharan motor into our new podcast city. Yep. Two-star city. We can now claim... Two-star city. We can now claim our $50 that it cost us for two weeks there as a tax write-off, so that's good.

So now, this is what we're used to. We are recording in Carl Chandler's house at 9am on a Wednesday morning. And this is it now. This is what the show... I think this is better in a way. Is it? This is a better studio, I think. Yeah, I mean, just while I had the headphones in,

it's a very windy day. I feel like people are going to be able to hear that on the recording. Oh, really? There was some construction going out. Yeah. This thing's kind of quite sensitive, so it picked up construction work down the street. That's a big construction job as well.

That's going to be a theme for the next year. Yeah, that's going to be one of those little running jokes that we have on this thing. But now it's kind of gone from, this show was kind of like a professional thing where we'd go into a studio and it had at least an air of, you know, at least its production quality.

But now I feel like it's just turned into people's bad assumption of what a podcast is. Four blokes sitting around a kitchen table, this little recorder that looks like a toy. Like no one, you guys don't even think this is recording do you? Like look at it, this doesn't look like a real thing that's happening. No, no, we just came to hang out with my little special yellow friend.

By the way, I was pointing to Carl then, I was not talking about body. How's Mr Angry going to respond to that? Well that's why I can't wear that hoodie. You wouldn't be able to tell where my skin starts and the shirt begins. Christ almighty. I would like to, since this is the first one in Carl's Place, I'm going to do what I presume every other guest can do.

I am going to point out to everyone the DVDs at Carl's. Because I'm moving house later. I am going to point out to everyone the DVDs at Carlton. Because I'm moving house later today. Oh, really? Yeah, I've got keys to a new place in Carlton. Congratulations. Thank you very much. We're not neighbours anymore. I know, it's false. You probably shouldn't say where you live. That's why I gave a false sub.

Yeah, because people are just going to now be walking around Carlton going, McKinlay! McKinlay! There's only like two houses in Carlton, so you would have been known for it. Yeah, you probably should keep that information on the downline. Have you guys done, you go to house inspections, and

I've found it really hard to be able to judge the house without taking into account the current tenant's belongings. You know one trick I learned from some TV show, I can't remember, what's that location,

location, or here, buy a new house. MASH. It could be MASH. They said that when you go into a new house and you need to visualize

that stuff, just look at the ceiling. You can visualize the house empty. That's good if you go into Lionel Richie's house. Because he was dancing on the ceiling. Was he dancing on the ceiling? Dude, I'm like

27. He's only listening to Gangnam Style. Dancing on the ceiling because it's like one of the most famous songs of all time. I know you only know Gangnam Style. I was going to say, you guys are going to think that this is because

I lack pop culture knowledge, but it's just because I'm not old enough. You need to take those sunnies off and pay a bit more attention. I think you're in denial. You're getting old. 27, that's old enough. You can't be 30 and going,

yeah, I don't know what's happened in the world before. I don't know. There's this thing called World War 2 you're going to love it I know you weren't born during it are you seriously comparing Lionel Richie to the World War 2 it's all in the same bag

of things you don't know about I like with house inspections and stuff like I like because I've been to a few like where you go to ones where you know the tenants are fine with moving out so they do tidy up the house a bit and then they make an effort to make it look very kind of like generic and like this could be anyone's house but then I went to a bunch where you know there were rental properties and the people were not happy about having to move out because they couldn't have the rent like bumped up on them

or whatever so they just left shit everywhere. Most people will leave when there's an inspection on. We went to one where people were going out of their way to just be standing there smoking inside going, yeah, I guess the house is fine. There's a pizza box on the floor. It's just shit everywhere. Going out of their

way to try and get people to not move in. A dead guy in the toilet. Just very bitter about what's happened to them. Yeah, I had to hang around when I gave up my last flat just before I went overseas. And yeah, I didn't want to give up the flat, but I just hung around in the thing. It was all clean and everything, but it was really like, and all these people coming in, it was pretty much like your ex-partner being seen by other potential with the real estate agent acting like a pimp.

It's a weird thing. This bitch do such dirty shit, we've got to get her steam cleaned. I'd never do it. I'd never hang around. Congratulations on moving to a new place. You're so angry. Notice how I'm the only one who's professional enough to talk into the microphone.

Everybody else is talking away like this. I'm the only one professional enough to have earphones on. What? Screaming. Screaming at people. So if I was inspecting this house, I would be probably not keen on it. Just because. I'm going to give five examples.

I glance over and these are the ones on display. I notice there's actually drawers where you've hidden which Sex and the City season two. Not hidden, contained. Contained. But there's at least two more Sex and the City. Three more Sex and the City. Wimbledon, Bride Wars.

I can tell you what's exactly there. Leap Year. Eat, Pray, Love. Eat, Pray, Love. Sex and the City 2. You've actually got the second movie. Yeah, and wait till you see what my girlfriend has bought. The 2006 FA Cup.

Yeah. All good games. That's hers. Liverpool West Ham. Went to penalties. Yeah, look, I don't own a lot of DVDs, so there. She is a fan of a white cover, which means it's a romantic comedy. Imagine if Carl was moving out of this place and there was a rental inspection going on this morning,

like, while we're doing this now. And we're like, this is the only time we can do it. We have to be doing this now. If you look on the coffee table, you'll see a copy of It's Complicated, What to Expect When You're Expecting, and two highlighters which created my hoodie that I'm wearing. See, now, this is interesting that we're giving a bit of an audio. I think this will genuinely be fascinating for the listeners because I think most listeners

or people that know you, Carl, just expect that you live in a cave. You live in a very well-lit house. Yeah, yeah. You know, two big windows on either side of the living room. There's a whiteboard here telling you to clean your car to pay your fine. And someone called Boo Boo owes $26 for the gas bill. Let's take bets. There's three of us here.

Boo Boo could be either one in the relationship. Or is that me? Did Carl pay my gas bill for me last month and I'm short on cash? Oh man, I didn't think this out. Someone needs that, Jake Fosdyke, the artwork guy, needs to draw a new dum-dum thing with Carl as Yogi and you as Boo Boo. Oh, yeah, that would be good.

That artwork guy is freaking awesome. Yeah, he is good. I can't get him to draw me. Yeah. Yeah, okay. What about this? What about this as a challenge to James Fosdyke? Nah, I don't challenge him.

You and me as Yogi and Boo Boo, and then Ronnie is Ranger Smith yeah yeah really angry Asian Ranger Smith with aviator sunglasses that guy is cool

by the way I'm not looking for freebies honestly that guy is cool that guy is really cool if I could be in the background

as some sort of James Bond President of the United States sort of character that'd be a great chance you could be in the picnic basket with a chef's hat this is why you guys need Bond, President of the United States sort of character. You could be in the picnic basket.

With a chef's hat. This is why you guys need a website. God. Holy crap. How does the most popular podcast in Australian comedy not have a website? It's just a pretty short soap opera. You know what? The same reason why we're recording this in my house.

If only Boo Boo would pay to make this stuff. what the same reason the same reason why we're recording this in my house i guess i'm the only one here who hasn't been in uh i'm the youngest guy in this room so no you're not i know i know it's it's jokes. But I want to know how what's the dynamic, what's the protocol when you have a long term live-in girlfriend? You guys still separate the bills? Yeah. I've got a wife and we still separate the bills. Is this a touchy subject? No, you have the bill of the house you live in. No, just pay for that shit. Really?

Yeah, just pay that shit. Mate, we're not all on the bloody ABC. We're not all rolling that sweet Sam Simmons bus. I'm doing the right thing by splitting the bills because my girlfriend's got a real job with real money coming in. And that's why my wife won't let that happen because she's a real person and I'm a comedian. Yeah, yeah. But what about this?

Can I bring this up about Danny McGinley? You put something up on Facebook a couple of weeks ago that I was very interested in. It was... Now, you might be able to tell me what it was a bit better. You've obviously done a bit of a vanity search for yourself on the internet. Oh, yeah.

You found this website. I am involved as well, so... Oh, right. With Oh yeah! You found this website. I am involved as well. Oh right, with you as the focus of this website. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was all that about? It was just something that you didn't know what it was. Yeah, first of all I'll clarify. My producer at Seasalt Productions

has some sort of media thing where if a new entry with my name comes into Google, she gets an email about it and she usually goes and checks it out. And yeah, this weird... I don't even have the text speak to describe it. We'll link it. We'll put it on the Facebook and the... It's been taken down now.

Is it gone? Oh, okay. How are you going to Link it without a website? What are you going to Link it to? I'm just going to Your keychain I'm going to write I'm going to link it to

I'm going to write the URL on the back of my Fluoro yellow hoodie Everyone's going to be Able to see it That's how you share things We'll put the link On the whiteboard

In Carl Chandler's Locked round Yeah Google will see it What was it? It was just a bunch of It was like Very poorly laid out

Various images of you Headshots from over the years Different weird text about you That seemed to have been sourced from nowhere But it was like Just laid out appallingly It was like a thing that had been automatically done It was a virus

But it was A virus that attacked A shipping company in the United States done. It was a virus. McGinley virus? A virus that attacked a shipping company in the United States when the virus automatically just picked a name and picked Danny McGinley and grabbed all the info about me. One of the funniest bits

is it's clearly gone Google images Danny McGinley and there's all these photos of me, but for some reason there was a photo of Ronnie Ching. Yeah, yeah. What a coincidence that we're both on this podcast. Did you guys arrange this? No, that was weird. I think Mel Butter was... We are the shipping.

Boo-boo shipping. Yeah, we called up the shipping company and went, we're struggling for guests today. Can you recommend anyone? Yeah, I think Mel Butter was on as well. Oh, right. And it was just a jumble of words. A jumble of words and a lot of pictures and whatever,

and your name at the top and whatever. So anyway... But all the words did relate to me. They were all clearly from interviews and stuff. Well, I know it's been pulled down, but I copied and pasted everything. Oh, did you? Oh, good man.

So I'm going to read you now what it said on that website. Danny McGinley. Way to the sum, Danny McGinley. Happy endings comedy since. Full stop. Want a film-themed stand-up with but comedians love football too and familiar face. End taken at school but comedians.

I think we all need one of these spam pages. Yeah, yeah. How nice is it to have your whole life... James Fosdart, can you create spam pages? Just have your whole life just laid out in keywords like that. Yeah, yeah.

I mean, while reading this, and Danny's just recalling, oh, yeah, I remember that word. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember Trophy. I remember Trophy, boyfriend. I remember a trophy. I remember a trophy, boyfriend. I remember when someone corresponded with me

and it wasn't cool. Yeah. I remember when a shipping company brought in the 10 kilos of tort. And I was like, 10 kilos? Who's shipping 10 kilos in? It's sort of like

a weird version of like, because I've always thought, you know, like with Big Brother, I've always thought coming out of that show when they show you like the highlights reel of just your life over the last month would be the most

strange thing. It's kind of like that. It's kind of like that bit of your internet life. It's like, oh wow, I'm even, oh yeah, trophy boyfriend. This is out of context. Oh god, I'm silly. It's like this is your life hosted by a mental person. Yeah.

Well, I put it, yeah. So I woke up to that early one morning, probably hungover, and it seriously, for a second, I thought, oh, it's got to mean something. It's got to be. One of my favourite films is National Treasure. And I was just thinking, oh, if we get Nicolas Cage in here, he'll be able to work this out.

You know what it's like? It's like someone's bought the Danny McGinley version of those words that you buy and stick on... Oh, man! All the key words in the news. Magnetic poetry. Yeah, magnetic poetry. DannyMcGinleyMagneticPoetry.com

Oh, you got it. Yeah, that's good. Whoever can make that, go to their pretend website. So I put that on Facebook going, what's going on? And immediately two of my computer boffin friends worked out what it was. Well, one had a theory and the other one was correct. That's the one I take my laptop to.

Oh, that must be the dreaded McGinley virus I've heard so much about. Hang on, whose website is this? On a shipping magnet? Yeah, I take my laptop to. Oh, that must be the dreaded McGinley virus I've heard so much about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hang on, whose website is this, on a shipping magnet? Yeah, yeah, I know what it is. I just love the idea of someone at that company just opening up their webpage and going, Boss, I've got bad news. We got McGinley. The trophy boyfriend himself, the very same.

Yeah, Rick Astley's going to get McGinley rolled. He's figured, which he guest programmed Rage on Sunday morning. He's been in on tour. My friend went and went supposed to go see him on a Saturday night and and he didn't show he pulled out because of throat problems. So I said oh wow you got reversed Rick Rolls. Yeah. You were supposed to see Rick Astley but he wasn't there. He programmed Rage. I would have thought that every song would have started five seconds in and then never going to give you up comes out every song. Yeah, that's what I was expecting.

But it was great. It was actually great. Like, he played some good stuff. Sorry, I cut you off. That's all right. I think there was one more point I was going to make. Your computer-blocking friend. Oh, yeah.

They actually went, oh, yeah. And then Jed Wood, who's a producer at the ABC, probably a friend of Ronnie, Oh, yeah, and then Jed Wood, who's a producer at the ABC, probably a friend of Ronnie, he sent an email to the shipping magnate, and BCC'd me in, and he's gone, hi, I can't remember what the guy's name was in charge of it, you know, hi, Steve's Trucks.

I'll tell you right now, mate. Oh, really? Okay. Hi, Steve Dahl. Steve Dahl, president of... President of, I don't know. What is he president of? Somewhere in Chicago. And he's going, I've been in charge of organising the ABC Christmas party and we'd like to book this comedian, Danny McGinley.

Are you his agent? Oh, wow. So you've got a gig through the show? He never responded. I like the idea that that would be... I like the idea that that would be like a management off to one of his other acts. I like the idea that that would be like a management company would have that on their website as your page.

Very good. Chicago. Steve Dahl or Michael Dahl? There's two names here. I don't know who to eat up. Yeah, that could be why I lost the gig. This website's confusing. Let's talk about this quickly. This is something that we did just before we left That we haven't really talked about on the show yet Now we're doing

More live Dumb Dumb shows Next year's Melbourne Comedy Festival, Brisbane Comedy Festival And hopefully a couple of others So we went out and got new photos done We had a little photo shoot For our posters and what not With a friend of the show, Louisa Bailey She took some great photos for us

And we put it up on our Facebook for our posters and whatnot, with a friend of the show, Louisa Bailey. She took some great photos for us. And we put it up on our Facebook. We got some of them. We put all of them up. Yeah. Is there any with you on children's playing equipment? No. Like you're having anal sex? Well, we got some done in a McDonald's.

We got us in suits eating at a McDonald's. And it was like two or three in the afternoon, so there were a lot of schoolchildren around, and we're sitting there, you know, very homoerotically eating McDonald's. Grooming them. And there was a point where there were, like, all these 16-year-old kids, and then there was a point where the teacher came along

and, like, instructed the kids to get away from us, to not go anywhere near us. And we were sort of laughing and joking and going, the funny thing is, is that these young school children are actually kind of our target demographic. We get home that night and we've got a message on Facebook from a school girl going, what were you guys doing

in Eltham McDonald's today? I was there with my class. Oh, that's pretty weird. I'm surprised they managed to find you on Facebook. Because you're not a face known from Facebook. Yeah, exactly. Unlike trophy boyfriend. Yeah, yeah.

But how did my photo end up with the McGinley virus? That's what I'm wondering. Yeah. It would have been, my boffin explained it, Stan, by the way. Friend of a friend of the show. So in showbiz terms, you're asking how did I get that? Yeah, how did I get that? Yeah.

How did I get that gig? It would have been like a gig we did together but they gave you top billing probably from probably a room run by old banana man

over here. Banana man. Old Ra the sun king over here. Sorry to bring it backwards. We should move forward.

So Ronnie Chow What up broay What up bro What up bro Oh there's the angry podcaster again Here we go We mentioned at the start of the show You have just been seen In Sam Simmons' show

Problems on the ABC Dressed as a big cat Yeah Mr Meowgi I believe your character name is Yeah Receiving a lot of praise On the internet

A lot of lawsuits from Wilfred A lot of praise on the internet a lot of lawsuits from Wilfred a lot of hate on the Facebook page really? on the Facebook page? yeah haters gonna hate really?

on whose Facebook page? not me not hating on me personally just hating on the show or whatever but haters gonna hate yeah

you get like 60 likes and then you get like 10 you know hating comments so I thought you meant like people love the show But then they hate you being in there as a cat

Oh no, no, I'm pretty I don't know. No one's singled me out yet. I'm pretty sure he's not actually Siamese That's a Malaysian accent One thing is that when you're dressed up, I guess people can't recognize your face So you haven't received any is you know, has life changed for you since being a cat on the ABC? Not much, uh Not much pussy? Bang! fees so you haven't received any has life changed for you since being a cat on the ABC got much pussy what up bro what up bro

you love that you're a son of a bitch I'm trying to turn into a catchphrase but unfortunately it sucks

it's not working out I'm going to let you know about it on your Facebook page as well it's not that

far removed from hey man. Yeah, that's true. Maybe, unfortunately, it sucks. That could be the catchphrase. Unfortunately, it sucks. Unfortunately, it sucks. My podcast catchphrase is actually, why are you listening to this?

I say that all the time. Very angry. On my podcast, which is approaching its fifth season, by the way. The Ron effect. Yeah, the Ron effect. How which is approaching its fifth season by the way the Ron Effect yeah the Ron Effect how long is the season? one episode literally I do

one episode I take a few months off and then it's a new season that would be unfortunate if you got axed halfway through a season and it's only a 20 minute long podcast

so it's like after 10 minutes you just oh we just got axed this is my new thing I talked to you about this the other night I want to be your first guest

on the Ron Effect. Yeah, I know, but my podcast is, you know... It's like your Twitter feed. Yeah. There's no one. I'm just Ron. Yeah, you don't follow anyone. You don't listen to anyone.

This comes up every single time I go. You're not even listening to us now. You're a true enigma. You've got a very strange approach to Twitter. You're the angriest podcast guest going around. I have a website. That's crazy talk. I have a website. That's crazy talk.

I have a website. Who has a website? Seriously, who needs a website? The most popular podcast in Australia doesn't have a website. Someone just needs to launch the dum-dum virus and attach it to a bloody banana bending company. If any shipping magnates out there want to be hacked, please.

Okay, I can tell you just one story from what's the show I was on? Problems, yeah. Is it a story about you discovering the name of the show you were doing a shoot? So I filmed the whole thing. Well, not the whole thing. I had other characters,

but the character in the cat suit was wearing Lycra, and it's very revealing. And so we did a photo shoot, and the results, the photo looked awesome, me and sam but uh was it sam and me what's the current sam and i and um uh the photo came out but you can see

everything like down there oh really it's super revealing so i actually emailed the producer just going hey this is kind of weird but could you please just phot Photoshop the photos before you release them? Is this part of your bashful photograph persona that you have? Yeah, yeah. If only you were like us and didn't have a website, no one would see us. Because I don't want some spam bot pulling this photo of Ike and David. And your groin getting better billing than McGinley. From that gig that you did.

How does spam bots know who has better billing? It's a robot. How does Spambox know who has better billing? It's a robot. How does it know who, how does it know who, just because it's on top doesn't mean it has better billing. It's been in a splint, it knows.

The Spambox spins its thing. So you can see everything. I emailed the producer, I emailed the producer saying, hey, can you make sure you Photoshop this? The producer goes, oh yeah, no problem, don't even feel embarrassed for asking,

we'll definitely make sure it's okay to go out. And then the photographer, who I won't mention, but he's a cool guy, he's one of the most prominent photographers in Melbourne, he just releases these photos like going rogue, like Sarah Palin. Just releasing this on Flickr, on Facebook, on Twitter. Is this a very good looking Greek photographer?

Yeah, and he's a great guy, dude, and you know, I'm totally not... There's not enough detail there. There could be anyone. There could be anyone who did my wedding. Yeah, and he's a great guy so I'm not angry about anything. He's also the guy that released your photos for this shipping magazine. Yeah! Yeah, some of his great work on that.

I think he's printed that website off and put it in his portfolio. You look at my wedding album and there's just Ronnie in half of it It's actually you getting married to Ronnie's dick Yeah so you can basically There's these photos going around where you can see my dick And then the producer releases the photoshop ones And the photoshop ones where they remove my dick They go too far the other

way and so now it looks like i have a vagina if you look at this so there's there's only there's only two promo photos from problems of me one is either you can see my dick or i have a vagina you should be able to vote on it like the el? Like that Elvis or skinny Elvis? Ronnie Dick or Ronnie Vagina? I can show you the vagina if you guys care to see. This is great. I'd love to see. You should do a side by side. You know how like in magazines they're obsessed with doing like pre-photoshop.

Just one with this big veiny dick and then one with a sweet amount of camel toe. And the problem is it wasn't even that veiny on the day. I should have, you know... Veined it up a little bit. Yeah, I should have veined it up a bit. Given it a few of these ones.

Well, if you flick, that's how you vein it up. Try to tourniquet it a bit. Tommy, I don't know how you make your dick look bigger, but... Yeah, yeah. That's how they do it with McDonald's burgers as well. They just flick them, make them look better. Oh, God. I can't.

One of my favourite things about Dumb Dumb Club is when I'll listen to an episode and then I'll look back because you sort of will give three subjects to it. I think today should be Ronnie's veiny dick slash vagina. Please don't put that on there. Because that'll come up in the chain virus.

That's the robot's part. The robot listens in. No, hang on. Robot, friend of the show. Robot, robot of the show. Stand by, friend of the show. Please don't put Ronnie's beanie dick. Put Ronnie's revealing photos. Okay, okay.

And please no one start up a Twitter account called Ronnie's beanie dick. And it's just a dick wearing aviators. Oh, man. What a great idea for a parody account. And it's just a dick wearing aviators Oh man What a great idea for a parody account Finally a good one Finally one worth committing to Well put that picture up on Instagram They're going to start selling that picture off now

Oh is that the new thing now Where Instagram will sell your photos Yeah As though you take really good photos What photos are you taking That you think Instagram is going to sell them photos. As though you take really good photos. What photos are you taking that you think you're going to sell them? Do you believe that Instagram is listening in today? There's all these people around

the world who go, we need a photo of a sandwich. How can we get that? Now we were talking before you mentioned briefly Spleen which we mention on the show a lot. Comedy Room in Melbourne on a Monday night. The best room going around in town.

And on Monday night, it was the infamous Spleen Christmas show slash party, which has sort of become, I guess, the official, unofficial comedian's Christmas party. Because we all work together and there's no one meeting place. So it's become kind of the thing that we all get together and get on the piss. Yeah, it is. It's a good... It's a good night. That's a vady dick talk. The Christmas party was on Monday. It's often a night of very drunken behavior. This year being no exception. Now, I did something that I was told about later on in the evening that I had no recollection of whatsoever. And it kind of really shocked me. Basically, at about 2 or so in the morning, pretty drunk,

someone comes up to me and goes, you have no idea what you did before do you and I went oh that's always great yeah I know what did I do

and apparently as it was told back to me I was at the bar waiting to get a drink and now a friend of the show Jackie our girlfriend

old friend of the show Steel Saunders was there and she works at I think she works at like a modelling agency or something so she was there

with a couple of models because they'd had their Christmas party they'd come up to so she said to me she goes you were in line to get a drink

you were trying to get to the bar and because it was so crowded and so jam packed you were trying to get forward in the bar

and she said without knowing what I've done I've reached out and I've literally shoved Miss Brazil out of the way to get myself to the bar.

And she, oh, like, I've got no memory of doing that. I've got no memory of touching anyone nearby. She goes, yeah, you've put your hand on a Miss Universe contestant, not even made eye contact with her, literally just shoved her out of the way so that you could get a drink. And I said, please message my girlfriend right now and tell her that that happened. Because that is, that looks good on me, right? You had me amazed that there was Miss Brazil in Splendid.

Yeah. If you had said there was Brazilian cockroaches in Splendid, I would have bought it. But that's, well, you know what, that's how anecdotes work, though. You do something silly or amazing amazing or whatever someone notices that and then comes back and tells you yeah i was there the other night and everyone was drunk and friend of the show david quirk came up to me and went oh you should have seen what i said before and i went well okay what did you say and he goes oh i just said um this is the worst night in the melbourne comedy calendar and i went oh, well, who'd you say that to?

He's like, no one, I just said it. So you're coming back to me and telling me that you said something to no one. That's your story? You're quoting yourself. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. But that's how Quirk works.

Yeah. So, like, look out for his Comedy Festival poster next year. There's just going to be a quote at the top of his poster saying, David Quirk, he's great. David Quirk works. Yeah. So, like, look out for his Comedy Festival poster next year. There's just going to be a quote at the top of his poster saying, David Quirk, he's great, David Quirk.

What about this also, since we've been back, I went to the Meredith Music Festival, which I go to every year, it was a great time. Was it sweaty? It was sweaty,

it was very hot that weekend. I thought so. And we were sitting around on the Saturday, for those who don't know, it's a two day music festival, it's about two and a half hours out of Melbourne and you camp there. And this year, it was particularly around on the Saturday. For those who don't know, it's a two-day music festival. It's about two and a half hours out of Melbourne, and you camp there. And this year it was particularly hot on the Saturday.

And, you know, there's a big culture when it gets hot of people just getting their clothes off and, you know, getting crazy and getting the hose out and whatever. And we're all sitting around talking about how hot it is. My friend Drew goes, this is in the morning, he goes, how long do we give it until someone gets out the slip and slide and makes that happen and we're all going it's got to be an hour

until that happens surely and then our friend Chuck goes what's a slip and slide and we went are you serious like you know you put a bit of tarp down

you put water on you slide on it you slide down the ground Ronnie I know what it is yeah so we're all just amazed that he'd never heard

of what a slip and slide was but you know you slide on the ground on a bit of tarp, whatever. And he goes, oh, okay. I just heard the word slip and slide and assumed it was like vomiting while shitting yourself. Okay. Very strange. Very strange choice to make based on just those two words.

I like the idea that someone's given that a turn. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. I love how idea that someone's given that a turn. Exactly, yeah, exactly. I love how it's something that you get out. How about you and I do a bit of a slip and slide? I like the idea that people have done it enough that it's like, we've got to have a turn. This is taking too long to describe the whole thing.

Yeah, but when they're all going, what was summer's like round at your joint? Like, we bring the crocodile mile at us. No, it's a live crocodile, and the children take turns shitting into its mouth. Yeah, yeah. That classic summertime fun that we have. It's a crocodile mile.

It's a crocodile mile, that thing that you'd have at the local swimming pool where you had to climb over the humps. It was like a toy that you could buy. It was like a bit of tarp that you could attach to a hose. You just slip inside, but then it had little kind of arches that you'd go through. Yeah, right.

But it basically, yeah, you attach it to a hose, and it's got little sprinkles in it. It's self-lubricating. What do Kind of arches That you'd go through But it basically Yeah you attach it to a hose And it's got little sprinkles in it It's self lubricating What do you call it? Crocodile mile Alright Kyle asked me to be on this And he said

Hey are you free for the podo? And I was like What's a podo? No no no I gave you a text And then you rang me And went Hi man

What's a podo? I actually tested you back That's why I was concerned You didn't get my message I said what is a podo? I actually tested you back, I saw you didn't get my message, I said what is a potter? I didn't get that message. And when you rang him, did you do that Arnold Schwarzenegger impression? Yeah, I don't know,

working with me for a week is all it takes for a comic to start imitating my voice. Everyone starts doing that. In my defense, I was also doing Gason Chong. And how do you feel about that? Are you cool with that? Is that a thing

That you're okay with? I'm okay with it yeah Usually it's done I can't think of a situation When I wasn't okay with it It's usually The racism is usually Tastily done

It's usually Because I actually YouTube all this stuff And then just get viral We were to keep with you In Brisbane Just before we went overseas And we went out For dinner I remember that I remember that Yeah I remember gig with you in Brisbane just before we went overseas and we went out

for dinner afterwards. I remember that. I remember that. Yeah, I remember that night. It was in Brisbane. Yeah. So you had had a beer at the gig

which you don't really, I mean you drink but you don't really drink. No, I've got this reputation for not drinking. But I do drink by my standards. You had a beer

and we were very ensconced by this because you hadn't had dinner at that point and you said you felt a bit buzzed. So we went out we were very you know ensconced by this because you hadn't had dinner at that point and you said you felt a bit buzzed so we went out to dinner was it ensconced does that involve top as well

yeah no sorry I was just being foolish is this a powerhouse or sit down a powerhouse yeah so we went out to dinner afterwards there was a group

about 10 of us you're sitting there in silence everyone else is having a chat and then you've interrupted the conversation you go good news everyone this restaurant has unguarded about 10 of us you're sitting there in silence everyone else is having a chat and then you've interrupted the conversation you go good news everyone this restaurant

has unguarded wifi the first time you've spoken in about 15 minutes and I was very taken by that well at that time

of night really unguarded wifi is the only thing that can really excite me yeah when you're that drunk that's your

unguarded wifi is like your version of kebab at Ronnie's Bucks party we're just going to be occasionally bringing out some wifi. It's just going to be everyone downloading Game of Thrones. Good news

Photoshop, the guy in this cat suit has an unguided pen. Can we talk about this quickly? This is something that we found out in LA that I've become fascinated by. A certain film that I see is coming out here. Now, we were having lunch with a friend of ours in LA who works at a company editing movie trailers. And he was telling us there was this film that's being advertised in the States when we were there that is now being advertised here quite heavily.

So keep an eye out for it. It's called Parental Guidance. And basically, they've done the trailer up to make it look like a Christmas film, but it's not a Christmas film. It was filmed three years ago, and apparently it is completely shithouse, so they've just gone, if we just

trick this up and make it look like a Christmas movie, that's the only way we can trick people into seeing it. Oh man, we're never going to get Billy Crystal on this show. And I've since looked at the trailer, and it is hilarious. Because knowing that, you can tell... They're going to take that quote off you now. What?

Hilarious, Tommy Daskal. Oh, no! Hilarious, David Coype. Take it back. I heard Tommy Daskal say hilarious, David Coype. So do you mean that this trailer, they made it purposely look like the Christmas... Yeah, because they've gone,

this film sucks, there's no way people are going to see it. Our only chance of making any money back on this is if we sneak it out during Christmas. They photoshopped Santa onto some of their groins. Well, that's just like Skyfall then, because the trailer made it look like a James Bond film, but then it became Home Alone.

Robbie! I'm a TVer that's a sweet reference point I get on my show. Yeah I thought of that gag as well. So what James Bond's got no

the high tech gadget is a paint can on a bit of string. Well basically there is a bit of that. Oh really? Yeah that last thing where he beats up Joe Pesci.

But learns the true meaning of Christmas. So it's not some kind of international crime syndicate. He's battling the wet bandits. Sticky bandits. Sticky bandits. But the wet bandits is the original one. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They change the name. Q gives him marbles to put on the stairs. Essentially, he does, kind of. He doesn't at all. It's actually M who does a lot of the really cool Home Alone. You know what? I already wanted to see it, and now I want to see it even more. I want to see it again.

I'll come with you. So this parental guidance thing, watch it or don't watch it, what are you trying to say? Well, I'm fascinated by it, and I kind of want to see it now based on this. I think we should organise like a dum-dum, it comes out on Boxing Day, let's get a dum-dum movie club going. Yeah, you could. The Hobbit comes out on Dumb Dumb, it comes out on Boxing Day. Yeah. Let's get a Dumb Dumb movie club going. Yeah, you could. I want people to see it.

The Hobbit comes out on Dumb Dumb today, but we'll go dressed as Billy Crystal and Ben Midler. Right, great idea. And dress up as the Hobbit to go see Parental Guidance. I like the idea that it's been made three years ago, and they went, man, this is a terrible movie, and then gone, oh, in 2012 they'll like it. The world will be ended by then.

Like a fine wine just sitting in the cellar. But my impression of how Hollywood works is that, like, what are you going to do? You can trick maybe the first week of people,

but you trick people for like a month? I think they just figured like that first week, that's as good as it's going to get for this film. It's that or nothing. But the text in the trailer,

it's like red and green, like very deliberately going over the top. I'm pretty sure the music in it is a bit Jingle Bells-y. Apparently, I don trailer, it's like red and green, like very deliberately going over the top. I'm pretty sure the music in it is a bit Jingle Bells-y. I don't think it's even set during Christmas. I think it's got literally nothing to do with Christmas. And I sort of thought it either won't come out here or it'll come out straight to DVD.

But yeah, it's out Boxing Day in the cinemas. Let's all go. Did you hear earlier this year the producers of Drive, which was that Ryan Gosling quite intense film, they got sued because a lady saw the trailer and thought it was going to be

like Fast and the Furious and she actually sued them. Wow. Yeah. For like $16. Yeah. At $24 she got popcorn. I wish you were gold class

and not crazy like that. Well, you know what Abraham Lincoln said, you can fool some of the people all the time, and all the people some of the time, but you can't fool everybody all the time. Was that Abraham Lincoln or was that David Quirk out loud by himself? And then he slayed some vampires. Well guys I think that's just about all the time we have for today. What? No! On the little dumb numbers last week. I've got two hours for my audition, I thought it was just about all the time What? No! On the little dumb numbers last
