Hey, mates.
Welcome once again into the Little Dum Dum Club for another week.
Thank you very much for joining us.
My name is Tommy Dasolo.
Sitting opposite me, the other half of the program, Carl Chandler.
G'day again.
I have a little bit of unfinished business from last week's episode that we recorded.
Oh, a bit of TBC.
A bit of TBC.
Right.
As you heard on last week's Little Dumb Dumb Club.
Yes.
Just quickly, can I say, just to follow up on something from the last couple of weeks,
it's actually really, you've shaved today.
Yes.
And it's weird.
Yeah.
A lot of people say that.
Yeah.
I've gotten used to seeing you with a beard and now it's...
I know.
I know.
I did look at it once I shaved and went, oh, is this what it's going to be like from now on?
That soft little chinny horse.
Yeah.
Anyway.
So this is a weird thing.
After last week's episode, we did with Michael Hing and Luke McGregor.
Yep.
And we recorded it at my house.
We're now at your house.
Yes.
And after we, very quickly after that recording, we went out and got dinner. And my girlfriend told me the next day that when she went into the bathroom,
the floor was covered in piss.
Really?
So I'm instantly cleared.
I'm instantly out because I live in the house.
Right.
And if that was my tendency, I would have been out long ago.
Yeah.
So I've been ruled out.
Yeah.
My girlfriend is going to give you the benefit of the doubt because you've been around a
number of times.
That wasn't me.
I took a shit in the shower, but I did not piss on the floor.
Well, I just did use your bathroom and I actually didn't need to use it, but another part of
it was my girlfriend telling me to go in there and see if there was piss on the floor.
What are you doing recon?
To kind of formally clear your name.
Did you dust for piss prints?
I pissed for piss.
So I pissed on top of the other piss that was already there.
So now we've basically...
Did you have like a, what is it called?
Not NYPD, CSI.
Did you have like a piss torch instead of a sperm torch?
It glows red, yeah, if it's piss.
If you've never listened to this show before, we're five years old, by the way. Yeah, yeah, if it's piss. If you've never listened to this show before,
we're five years old, by the way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So now basically what we have to do is it's sort of a two-horse race
between Luke McGregor and Michael Hing,
between which one of those two pissed all over my bathroom
and my lovely girlfriend had to clean up.
The most disgusting game of Cluedo ever.
Yeah.
So I don't know.
Honestly, I've been thinking about this a lot in the last week and I can't really pick
who my vote would rest with, who I think would be the most likely out of those two men to
do that.
This is definitely something.
We can use the poll function on the Facebook page for the first time ever.
Don't say the word poll when we're talking about human piss.
Well, let's bring in our two guests
and see if they have any...
They are also two...
They're two men who also know both of these men.
This is now a piss panel show, isn't it?
And then maybe at the end of the episode,
if we've worked out a consensus,
we can call one of those two guys.
Q and A and P.
Yeah.
The yellow room.
Well, first of all, making his first appearance on the show,
you may have heard him on the Shelf podcast.
You may have seen him live on Bowen on Channel 31.
Please welcome into the little dum-dum club, Dilrok Jasingha.
Yay!
Are we applauding?
That was me clapping.
I just realised I've introduced you a number of times on stage at comedy gigs,
but this is the first time I haven't had the benefit of big echoey speakers
and lots of crowd noise and clapping.
I was just kind of marked because it's always like,
Dilraba!
I did that last week.
I introduced him and definitely got halfway through the word and went,
oh, I'm not sure if I know this one.
And the last half of it was definitely on a
downward lilt.
Dilraja!
Dilraja!
Dilraja!
How was that, though, out of ten?
That was perfect. That was actually perfect.
I don't know why I keep insisting on it.
I think I've told you this. It was Daniel Towns
who pulled me aside once, because I used to just go as
Dil Space Ruck, or Rook,
and he pulled me aside.
Dil Space Ruck? That is. Dill Space Ruck?
That is weird.
I can see why you changed it because that's
so dumb. It goes with my NASA gear.
But yeah, no, Daniel
Towns said because his name is Pavelzik
but he used his mother's maiden name and now
it gets really fucked up when he books flights.
Everyone books him as Daniel Towns but there's nothing on his
ID. Hang on, Daniel Towns, that's
not his last name.
No, I know that.
I didn't know that either.
Neither does European Man.
His real name is Daniel Terrible at Twitter.
That's actually his last, it's his surname.
I'll enjoy listening to this right before I chop it out of the edit suite.
How are you going, Dil, anyway?
Because this is your first time.
You're a dum-dum debutante.
Yeah, I'm fucking excited.
I remember when I was doing a little radio show on a community radio.
Best place for it.
I'd finished editing and walked out,
and you three were walking in to do the first recording.
Oh, yeah.
So you've got the very newest,
and you've got the oldest guest that's yet to be introduced.
I know, and three years later, I'm here, I'm excited.
Yeah, awesome.
We're also making a return to the program.
It's, well, what would it be now?
200 and something days until his birthday
from something for the drive home.
Please welcome into the Little Dun Dun Club,
Nick Cody.
I think you got that name right.
I think you got the pronunciation right.
Nick Cody.
Has anyone fucked up Nick Cody?
No, no.
Oh, the age did.
The age did.
The age called me Nick Kobe Has anyone fucked up Nick Cody? No. No. Oh, The Age did. The Age did.
The Age called me Nick Kobe on a story about the X-Fed one night during Comedy Festival in like 2007 when someone got stabbed before the late night show on The X-Fed.
Did you get a mention in that?
Yeah.
Or Nick Kobe did.
Was that in the Arts or the Police Report?
Yeah.
And also, how'd you get that?
We should quickly, for context, The X-FFit is kind of a famous gig among Melbourne comedians.
Infamous.
Infamous because it's been around for a very long time
and it's a notoriously brutal gig.
It used to be a lot rowdier and it used to be a lot...
Especially during the comedy festivals, very hard.
Yeah.
It's just ridiculous.
And I remember that time, you know what,
because I was quite upset at that
because I turned up to that gig.
I wasn't on.
I just walked past on the way to a car, to my car.
On the way to a car.
Yeah, I was going to a car.
Is that another gig?
We're very excited.
I'm not fussy.
Any car.
I walked past and I actually walked over blood in the alleyway and went,
oh, this is looking like a big night.
And then there was a policeman with you know a guy
with his arm around
his back forcing him
into the ground
and I'm like wow
and it was next to
the expert
and then I went in
and there was a
you know there was
a policeman or
whatever and they
go oh by the way
that happened in here
and we're kicking
off in five minutes
and I was like
alright good luck
with that one
and left
and then the MC
then started telling
everyone
Tom Seeger
started telling everyone oh Seger started telling everyone
oh Chandler
was too scared
to do his gig
I was like
no
I saw
a crime
evidence scene
that I had nothing
to do with
and I kept walking
Tom Seger
very good on his feet
the blue and red
siren
like you could see
the lights
the police lights
coming through
the back of the window
behind him
and the show starts
and he walks out
and the very first sentence was,
why is everyone quiet for you?
You just say you can't get stabbed or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, boring.
Let's go back to talking about all the piss that's in my toilet.
Hang on.
And you got the mention in the paper and not him?
Yeah.
Yeah, what was your, what context were you mentioned in?
Oh, just the comics that were there that night.
Troy Kinney.
Nick Coby was better than seeing someone get stabbed?
Marginally.
So you guys, Dill, knowing Michael Hing and Luke McGregor,
who do you think would be more likely to have done this to my toilet?
I'm sorry, I know you've got things to talk about, Chandler.
I'm going to go with Hing purely just on racist reasons.
Okay, yeah.
This is another thing we need to talk about quickly because this is two weeks for two
now where my dog, Jack, Time Dog, who's made an appearance in the show a couple of times.
Last week when Michael Hing came in, who is of Asian descent, the dog barked at him.
If the Hing didn't give it away.
Just in case, you never know.
Yeah, and you pronouncing Michael as Michael.
Michael.
Michael.
Should be a good 15 seconds in this episode so far.
So he got barked at.
Luke McGregor came in, no barking.
This evening, Dilra comes into my house, gets barked at.
Cody comes in, no barking.
Literally, he was barking at me and I said, mate, I've got my citizenship
and he stopped barking. Stopped instantly.
This week he was probably just barking
going, his barking language was actually
saying, mate, we had your mate last
week and he pissed all over the place.
Don't come in here. Well, because for a dog that's very
territorial, so he would think that Michael
Hing or Luke would be trying to kind of like take
over his role in the house. Or could your dog
have just pissed on the floor?
That's likely.
That is awesome if he's done it next to the toilet.
Next to the toilet.
To frame an Asian person.
Who framed Lodger Labbit?
Jeez, we are going to lose so many sponsorship dollars over this one.
Doris, please.
And break.
Yeah.
So your dog, though, it could have been your dog.
It could have been the dog.
I hadn't really thought of that because my girlfriend kind of has
rose-coloured glasses when it comes to the dog.
The dog can do no wrong.
And the way she's framed this whole incident,
it never even entered my mind that the dog could have possibly done it.
But now that you say it, the dog probably did do it. But the dog, if you...
I'm going to be honest.
Out of the two humans versus the creature that he's done to piss on floors,
it's still the Asian.
If he's pissed right next to the toilet, that's pretty impressive.
Yeah.
If he's learnt that far and just got there and gone,
mate, this is as close as I can get.
Yeah, it's like the cat out of Meet the Parents
So what you guys are suggesting
Is that we should have the dog put down
No I'm suggesting we have Michael Ng put down
Just in case
What's your house made like?
Are they likely to have pissed on the floor?
No because this was like
There was a bit of bathroom usage
straight after we did the show,
and then we went out and then she would use it.
And how come Chandler got ruled out?
Because there was no piss just now.
Chandler got ruled out because he's been in the house
a few times before.
We know we can trust him.
I don't think I've ever gone to your toilet.
That seems...
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
So where did you piss then?
On the dog.
In the dog's mouth, and then it came out of the dog.
So it kind of is Chandler's Piss.
You know, whoever touched it last, it's theirs, so...
It was Carl in the kitchen with his dick.
Yeah.
No, it was Carl in the dog with his dick,
which sounds even worse than what the original story was.
Okay, well, I'm going to put the dog on the table and I'll...
So it's one vote dog, one vote Michael Hing.
No one's willing to vote for McGregor.
I'll vote for McGregor.
I could also say it is a thing that if it had to be a human
to piss on the floor out of those two, I would pick McGregor
just because he'd be the guy that'd go,
oh, um, oh, and then just walk out.
Apologising to his piss as it's coming out of him.
But also, I did think about this because he has OCD.
Yeah.
So surely his OCD would not allow him to leave pissing.
No, he's pissed on it another 18 times.
Yeah.
We did have to wait three hours to start the podcast
for him to do it and then mop it up and then do it again.
And he did surf into the podcast on a yellow wave,
so maybe that was actually him.
Surf in the yellow wave.
It's too bad we don't give these episodes names
because I'd go back and rename that one.
Surf in the yellow wave.
Which actually is a good title because Michael Hing's in it.
He's allowed to say it
because that's his mate.
People who can't see me
just listen to my fucking last name.
Got a bit of the dark here.
That's a nice attempt at it.
That is a very good point.
Yeah, McGregor.
McGregor wouldn't let that happen
unless he was trying to frame Michael Hing.
Or the dog.
Yeah.
Everyone hates your dog.
I love the idea of McGregor going to that much effort to frame a dog.
And why?
Like, what's the motive here?
Why is this happening?
Yeah, so, yeah, anyway, I just thought I should bring that up as a bit of literal and metaphorical housekeeping.
If that's not a good reason for the listeners to email in with theories.
Who they think.
Yeah, Michael Hing versus Luke McGregor.
Piss theories.
Yeah.
I should just make people do a piss test every time we record at my house now.
Just cause.
Just like the Olympics.
Just like the Olympics.
You just have your own sample when you rock up.
Yeah.
And if I test it for drugs and it comes back positive,
I just go and I delete all the episodes that you've been on.
To teach you a lesson.
Hey, I just finished a run today, a proper run,
the Age Run Melbourne, I think it's called.
And I did that last year.
And you did this exact, the same same Was this the exact same one?
Yeah same event
Not the same one
As in the same day and year
Because I can't do that again
Last year's version of it
I did
And that was the one where
There was a
There was a bit of
Argy bargy
On the
On the finishing line
You pushed through the ladies
Yes
Is argy bargy a cool new term
For domestic violence?
Abuse against women?
Is it domestic violence if I don't know the women?
Gee, I don't know.
That's another poll we can put up.
You know what?
You need a bit of domestos violence to clean up your piss problem,
don't you, mate?
Domestos violence.
People listening to this have lost it,
so let's just leave a good minute for them to catch their breath.
When do we start the poof-to-bashing?
Because we've done racism.
Vows against women.
Yeah, that's minute 40 that stuff comes in.
Don't jump ahead, Dylan.
So last time, if you'd heard, a year ago,
what happened was my girlfriend got in front of me.
We'd been going the same level the whole time.
I'd been sort of trying to let her, you know, going as slow as she could go
so that we were going at the same level.
And then it got to 100 metres before the end.
She took off and just went, I'm going to win it.
I'm like, what?
And so I raced through.
I busted through a bunch of women to catch up to her in time.
They took a photo right as that happened.
There's a camera on the finishing line.
They happened to get the exact moment
where I'm going sideways
busting through two women
and they're just looking
at me going
what the fuck are you doing
and you're
you're breaking through
because you're worried
that this is symbolic
of your relationship
as a whole
but one day
she's just going to
break away from you
and sprint out to freedom
and you're thinking
I'm fucking not having this
if that's going to happen
I'm going to take down
some women on the way through
so
and the photo you look very aggressive as well the moment of snap yeah yeah And you're thinking, I'm fucking not having this. If that's going to happen, I'm going to take down some women on the way through.
And the photo, you look very aggressive as well at the moment of snap.
Because Chandler knows there's only inches between 1292nd place and 1293rd place.
And if you want to be not a champion, you've got to go above and beyond.
Yes.
Yes.
I'm a competitive person.
I didn't want to be – because it gets printed in the age as well
All the times
I didn't want to be below my girlfriend's time
So what happened was
We did the same thing again today
Which is good
We did the same run and everything
How many female casualties on the track today?
Strike?
Was it ten?
No, there was a spare
I had to do another lap
And get one of them on the way through
uh no it was good we were in good form and uh yeah it was it was it was really good run and
because i got the impression from talking to you and things that you've said on the podcast that
you'd that you'd let yourself go a little bit there'd been a lot of mcdonald's and secret
chocolates and yeah but not time for a lot of exercise. That was all talk before Thailand.
Thailand was like a training camp.
We ran every day in like 35 degree heat every day along the beach.
But you've been back for three weeks and you've had McDonald's 89 times in that three weeks.
But I've run 88 times.
Okay.
Fair enough.
Yeah.
There's this weird equilibrium in my head that evens out all the bad things I do.
Yeah.
No, I'm exactly the same. When I go for a run, I'm like, this is a cheeseburger. Yeah. I out all the bad things I do. Yeah. No, I'm exactly the same.
When I go for a run, I'm like, this is a cheeseburger.
Yeah.
I've earned a cheeseburger.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Look, I've literally been to McDonald's today straight after I went for a 10-kilometer run.
So, yeah.
I had a big flurry and everything.
So, the run was good.
We were in good form.
It got to the end, and this is a thing where, honestly, I didn't think about it, but I sort of had a, not a repeat of what happened last year,
but a very similar repeat.
And after I did it, I was like, oh, no, this is where the camera was last year.
So I'm really hoping that this hasn't been captured as evidence.
But what happened was we got to the end,
and I was actually a little bit in front of my girlfriend this year.
Did you give her the finger?
No, I just spat behind me.
Because you put cement in her shoes.
So I was running in front of her.
I sort of went, all right, I'm going to let her catch up a little bit
and what I'm going to do, and this is all split-second decision.
I haven't planned this out.
I just thought very suddenly, I thought, you know what would be good?
If we ran in hand in hand.
Like, that would be equal.
My order is just tingled.
Yeah, yeah.
So I went to...
Because it's going to be better when you knock over other women
if you're holding a woman's hand.
I was trying to clothesline her.
We can team up and clothesline her.
See, I'm friends with one of them.
I don't hate them at all.
No, no, no.
I was going to grab her hand and then just throw her at someone.
So I went to grab her hand and what I did was like,
so we were like 10 metres from the line.
Some other dude's hand?
No, no, no, no.
I went to grab her hand and me thinking,
I'm going to grab her hand, she's going to appreciate that
and we'll run through together.
She made her drop her iPod.
She went, fuck off! and then we ran through and i know
i'm thinking the photo is going to be of the ipod and her swearing at me awesome yeah so because
last time when this happened last time you mentioned that there were photographers and
you were very reluctant to to give people any clues as to how they could find the photo yeah
and then people found it anyway so i would be saying to the people any clues as to how they could find the photo. And then people found it anyway,
so I would be saying to the people who listened last time,
who found it, to go back to that source.
Yeah.
And hopefully they'll be able to find it.
I'm hoping there's like an article where the photos are put side to side
and serial pests.
I'd love it if instead, because you're saying,
you reckon the photo's going to be of her saying,
fuck off, if there's not even a photo,
they've given the photo
to Mark Knight
and then he's
caricatured it
and this big bubble
saying fuck off
and then I'm angry
because the little pig
is beating me over the line
so
little pig in a tutu
running over the finish line
yeah
and I've got Chandler
written on my side
just in case he can't
draw me properly
yeah
and then
yeah no
like your left leg
is like the Liberal Party
and your right leg is the Labor Party.
No, I've got my name on my side.
My girlfriend's got her name on her side
and then the iPod has got written on it.
Chance of a lovely relationship happening from now on.
Were there, because I remember you last time saying
there were a lot of people in costumes.
Yeah.
Not so much this year.
Still a bit of that?
Not so much this year, but I did the onesie.
You know why?
Because there was like some kind of comic books or video games kind of convention thing
on this weekend that must have flushed them all out.
Yeah.
I think they were very early on because we were sort of very late on.
So there wasn't so many people, but I did...
You were headlining.
You were headlining.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I did have my phone.
I was filming several things at one point and I did have an idea... Just a bit of high speed upsklining. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did have my phone. I was filming several things at one point,
and I did have an idea.
Just a bit of high-speed upskirting.
Yeah.
It did go through my head.
I was going to just collect video,
every person in costume that I ran past,
and on the way past, film me going past them going,
fuck off, and they just kept going.
But there wasn't that many of them.
Not enough, yeah.
There was only a couple.
There was a guy dressed as Shane Warne and a guy dressed as Wonder Woman.
80% of the kids.
Yeah.
Shane Warne cosplay.
I love it.
That's so good.
There was a guy dressed as Tony Abbott, and it was Tony Abbott.
He was just ahead of us in the start line.
Yeah, he was running it today.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Okay.
It was actually him.
Because they just kept saying it over the loudspeaker.
Well, Tony Abbott's here today.
So I bet Tony Abbott's having a good time.
Aren't you there, Tony?
And it went on for a minute until I went, oh, this isn't taking the piss.
This is actually a guy.
A real guy.
He just kept saying it.
Yeah.
Better not be dressed as a boat, you know, going to get mad.
Yeah.
Is he wearing his budgie smugglers?
Hashtag political.
I did a triathlon a while back, obviously.
Mate, you don't have to say that.
We're looking at you.
We can see that.
Pieathlon?
Podcast.
Thanks.
I'm happy to be here.
I'll see you guys.
I'm done.
Pieathlon.
So that was meat, curry, steak and onion.
Is that it?
Are you going to be doing a triple bypass?
No, he's going to be doing a tri-full.
It's bullying, guys.
It's literally just straight up bullying.
So excited to be here, guys. There's not even an ironic tinge to it. It's just, guys. It's literally just straight-up bullying. So excited to be here.
There's not even an ironic tinge to it.
It's just actual bullying.
If you're at home not finding this funny,
you should be here because he is quite fat.
Those things on TV and in magazines
about how we need to stamp out bullying,
this is exactly what they're talking about.
As you're hunting down the person who pissed in your toilet yeah yeah exactly how's
that bullying and naming and shaming oh okay yeah no you did a triathlon i did a triathlon i forgot
to know whatever my point was but i think it was because i started off with the age category of 25
to 30 and by the time i finished a swim leg i was with the 60 plus year old people but let's go back
to talking about how i'm fat have i talked about the time that a friend of mine did the,
what is it, the Portie Peter Pub swim,
and he was feeling really good about it,
and then he did super shit in it,
and it was the year that an old man had died in the middle of it
and the dead guy beat my friend.
Like his corpse washed up onto the dead guy beat my friend. Like his corpse washed up onto the
beach ahead of my friend.
Don't you have to run through a
go over a line or something?
I love that if the photographer
didn't even realise he just published it.
It's just Chandler holding his head
down under the water.
Holding her head down, please.
He's got a touch. Yeah, I don't know.
I'm very specific. her head down please he's got a touch yeah I don't know I mean there's there's a lot
very specific
there's a lot of holes
in the story
but it's one of those
things that you hear
and you go
you know what
the more I fact check
this the more likely
I am to find out
that it's not real
and I so much prefer
living in this world
where that's a thing
that's happened
let's just
settle with
agreeing on the story
that a dead person
got out of the water
and then ran over the finish line.
They weekended Bernie's dim just for the last leg,
just to rub it into my mate even more.
That would be very good.
That would be very good.
Because then the dead person beat, and also two people are saying to your mate,
we beat you and we were carrying a dead person.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like his parents line it up because they've been trying to convince him
to lose weight and get fitter,
so they do that.
That would be awesome.
That's what they should have done today
on the run Melbourne.
Weekend at Bernie's costume
and be carrying around a dead person.
A paper mache dead guy on top of you.
Yeah, for 10K.
Yeah.
That would be awesome.
Okay.
I can't believe I excited you.
Do it.
I'm trying to throw more stuff into the mix,
but all I can think to say is you're right.
You've really hit on something there.
Of all the movies to pick for a peer-to-pub or whatever,
Big Wiggin' and Burnin's.
I like to think that it was peer-to-pub to cemetery.
Yeah, peer-to-cemetery.
He was running his own.
Peer-to-public cemetery.
Oh, you know what
Now this reminds me of something
We talk about your toilet
I should have said this
At the top of the show
I cannot
I cannot wait to hear what this is
No no this is not as dramatic
Speaking of your toilet
No I had a thing this week
Where I was in a public toilet
And
Well you know what
How do you
Do you carry around Like a notebook to think of?
I sit down to piss.
What?
When you're thinking about your little skits or your little riddles or your little skits,
do you carry a notebook and a pen on you at all times?
I generally tend to use my phone.
Like, when I can, I have a notepad on me.
But if I'm just, you know, if I don't have a bag or whatever,
I just use, or if I don't have a jacket with a lot of pockets,
I just use the notes on my phone.
What about you guys?
Oh, no, you don't.
No, I'm fine.
Yeah, you.
You don't write anything down, do you?
No.
No.
It's just another 25-minute diary story in your festival show.
Marty Cody!
You're just too ashamed to actually put your material to
write.
Oh, I've had to write it out word for word sometimes and go,
oh.
Yeah, my set list at the moment is like the two items back to
back, a wank bin and then dating mum.
And then following on from that, pizza.
And then after that, Fred Flintstone.
Well, your set list for this episode has been McGregor piss
Question mark
Dead swim
What else what else have we had
Racism
Punch women
Yeah
I have no book
I find that but most of it
I don't know like every tenth word of mine is jizz
So I feel like
it is again
another
it's jay singer
thank you for calling back
to my material
yeah no
I carry a notebook
just because I don't trust myself
to remember anything
I don't like using
the phone thing
I will say though
like it feels very
I just do it
because it's there
and it's
you know better than
forgetting it
if you don't have it on you.
But it just feels – there's something a lot more romantic about having a great idea
and having to scribble it down.
I completely agree.
And I feel sad because I'm starting to use my phone more often to do exactly that just
because it's a bit easier.
Yeah.
But I – in my old job, you know what?
When I worked an office job, I used to like for a lunch break or a toilet break, whatever,
go to the toilet and bring out my notepad, my notebook in the toilet and force myself
to write a joke while I'm sitting on the toilet.
So I was actually at a job last week where I had to use the toilet.
I went, you know what?
Can I just say quickly, you owe everyone at this table a thank you.
There's an obvious link between you taking shit and you writing your material,
which is shit.
There's a number of things we could have done,
and everyone here, for whatever reason, respect or whatever it is,
just decided to let it pass.
So you're welcome.
Well, I was just censoring myself because I realised that's what I do as well,
but that's why I was saying hemorrhoids.
So I found that being on the tour.
But I thought maybe I shouldn't share that to the public, but no.
No, I'm leaving that in.
I'm the gatekeeper here.
Just cut and paste and use it a few times.
I have hemorrhoids.
Give me your fucking hemorrhoids.
So, enough callbacks to things that happened before the episode.
I pulled out my notepad, my notebook and my pen
and I dropped my pen on the toilet floor
and it went directly between the next cubicle and my cubicle
and before I picked it up, someone walked into the toilet
and then went and sat in the next cubicle.
And then as they sat down, I went, oh, okay,
and just sort of grabbed the pen.
And I was just thinking, maybe that guy's now just thinking.
He didn't see me drop it.
He's just seeing me.
Oh, free pen.
Yeah, just go, toilet pen.
All right, well, why wouldn't you pick that up?
If you didn't see the pen itself, you just saw your hand moving away.
And he's like, oh, what is that?
Yeah, there he is.
That guy's just picked that off the floor of the toilet
and he's put it
behind his ear
and he's the editor
of the Daily Planet.
Old Penzi.
Yeah.
Old piss pen.
It's a weird
kind of silent
arrangement
slash relationship
the being in a cubicle
next to someone.
Yeah.
That you,
like if you look down
for a second and you see their feet and you go, man, that's so someone. Yeah. Like if you look down for a second and you see their feet
and you go, man, that's so close.
Like I could really easily see some dong right now if I wanted to.
And I get very embarrassed of going to the toilet
when I'm sitting next to someone.
I'm thinking, oh, I better not let him hear me take a dump.
It's like, well, what else was happening?
In Lorne a few weeks ago, I had to go and use the bathroom for number twos
and sat down and there was somebody in the cubicle next to me.
There was just two cubicles.
Normally you'd leave a space.
And it was just really silent.
And then this guy has just made a fart noise that I just laughed
and then he started laughing.
It was like bonding over there.
I was like, oh, this is fine now.
Can you high five afterwards when you can? Because it's bad. I reckon it's worse. No was like, oh, this is fine now. You high-five afterwards when you can.
Because it's bad.
I reckon it's worse.
No, no, do you know what?
He farted, you laughed.
He's like, oh, fuck, I should write this down.
Oh, I dropped my pen.
It's kind of weird in just a bar or a pub
or just a public toilet in the street or whatever.
But I've hated doing it when I work office jobs
because it's such a small group that if someone comes in,
you see their shoes and you know who it is.
Well, the floors at my work are granite,
or granite, I don't know how you pronounce it,
but you can actually see the reflection of whoever's in there.
And my boss and I made eye contact while I was wiping my ass once.
But you don't talk about it.
You just go, here's the text return you wanted.
Sorry if it's a bit brown.
When we worked at Channel 7's The White Room,
I don't know if we've all heard that.
I ended up taking a lot of shits next to Declan Fay.
We were on the same, we synced up.
We were working that job. And then when you finished on the same, we synced up. All right.
Through working that job.
Right.
And then when you finished writing those sketches, did you go to the bathroom?
Yay!
Excellent.
Excellent stuff.
How are we going to top that?
I challenge us to try and top that.
I challenge us to talk about worse subject matter than this.
Shit, shit, piss, shit, shit, piss, piss, shit.
Yet still, it's been one of the more highbrow ones we've ever done.
Yeah, so far.
Wow.
Has anyone got anything that hasn't come out of an orifice of theirs to talk about?
Quick follow-up again to another thing we were talking about last week.
No, a couple of episodes ago now,
we were talking about last week we, no a couple of episodes ago now we were talking about
having to get flights
and you know being on a plane and
kind of accepting
your fate a little bit you know and the whole
you know how many things can go wrong
on the flight back I just went to Tasmania
for a couple of nights, oh yeah, just this weekend just gone
plenty of dum dum fans?
yeah a few down there, it was very nice
I, we flew back in in a pretty small plane,
like one of those ones that's just two rows of two seats,
so kind of like a little light plane.
And I'm sitting there with my headphones on
and the lady comes past with the cart with the coffee on it
and I take my headphones off, I ask for a coffee,
and then she goes,
oh, by the way, sorry about that noise that's going on above you.
And I'm like, oh, I've had my headphones on.
I didn't even know there was anything going on.
And she goes, yeah, we're not really sure what it is,
but we're going to get it looked into when we land in Melbourne.
I'm like, should be if we land in Melbourne.
There's just a loud noise going on that you have no idea what it is.
And I've introduced this conversation by saying I wasn't even aware of it
to start with.
And so she's not only alerted me to it but made it just sound fucking horrendous.
The sun's going to be looking in on us in a second
when the roof fucking tears off at 35,000 feet.
And ladies and gentlemen, if you look above, you can see.
Welcome to Con Air.
You know Cyrus?
Is this coffee warm enough?
Doesn't matter.
This plane's going to be a burning wreckage pretty soon,
so that'll heat it up for you.
But, yeah, I just found that very strange.
That doesn't come up in...
The old Boeing convertible.
The old Jetstar soft top.
Sorry about the noise above, and also the piss stains around the toilet.
We almost got through a whole story.
And then on the way up there, the flight was a bit late.
We're on the plane and this huge storm hit in Melbourne.
So they were like, oh, flights have been grounded for a bit.
So we're just going to wait here.
So we had to do that thing when you're already on the plane
and you're just sitting there not moving for 45 minutes.
And then finally, and the storm outside just looks like
it's getting worse and worse and worse.
And I've got a gig there in like three hours.
So I'm going, fuck, am I even going to make it to Tasmania?
And then the captain comes on and goes, all right,
we've just been cleared to take off so we're just going to go now.
And if anything, the storm's gotten worse.
And I'm like, look, I really want to get there and all, but...
My name's Tommy Dastley, not Rob Jell, but...
Yeah, so it was a terrifying...
But every time I've been down to Tasmania,
the flight has been super turbulent.
Is that a thing?
Is it more like it's windier down there or something?
I love the show Air Crash Investigations
and nothing would make me happier to see at the start of next season
a shot over Bass Strait with a whole bunch of grey
Dum Dum Club t-shirts in the water.
Great publicity.
And then black box footage of some little boy
putting his hand up to the stewardess going,
excuse me, but I've got to perform
my joke wank bin
in under three hours.
And then I'm like doing stand-up
as we're going down. I'm like, well, it'd be a shame
if I died without these jokes getting out there
at least one more time. I'm recording
an album on the black box.
The last thing they heard was, see you, mate.
And then him saying, get it?
See you, mate?
Oh, boom.
Another interesting Tassie thing, we did this gig and there was a guy on who was funny,
who was like a little bit of an older gentleman, I'm going to say.
We haven't bashed the elderly yet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's why I brought it up.
That's what made me think of it
I was doing a mental inventory
and I finished, I did the gig
and it was really good, it was a lot of fun
and I'd done a bunch of stuff
about a few little skits
that I do about having cancer
was some of the stuff that I did
oh man, I love that one
so at the end of the gig
we're sitting around and you, I don't know anyone.
So I've just met all these dudes for the first time,
and there was this younger guy there who has done stand-up a little bit,
but he was sort of saying, oh, you know, I haven't gigged for a little while,
and, you know, I haven't really written any new material.
And, you know, to be honest, I'm kind of struggling.
I don't even really know, like, what to write about.
I'm just having a bit of a writer's block.
And this older guy who's sitting there kind of points at me and goes,
oh, well, you should just get cancer.
That seems to work out pretty well, doesn't it?
I'm like, nice to meet you.
James, was it?
Yeah, that did work out pretty well for me, didn't it?
What a great old time that was.
Give him the dice.
It came up six.
It's fine.
Just another in the recurring, in the continuing adventures of people seeing you talk about
it and go, oh, well, it's bloody hunting season, is it?
We've got a free pass, have we?
We're in the same room when this happened.
I just like the idea that he says you should go and get cancer.
It's like you go to a shop and say, what do you want today?
Oh, just some noodles and cancer things.
Just go into the toilet after death,
so I sit on the same toilet seat and pick it up off you.
Contract cancer.
Do you want that sub heated up?
Yeah, and also,
can you leave the microwave door open
as you're doing it
so I can contract some sleep?
Chicken teriyaki and asbestos.
Does that come in there?
No, no onion.
What kind of cheese do you want?
Oh, just a leukaemia tape.
Thanks.
Yeah, so apart from the points
where I thought I was going to die
and I got bullied,
it was a really good trip
apart from those two instances.
I love those gigs.
Those in Salon System. It was great. I think we from those two instances. I love those gigs. Those in Launceston.
It was great.
I think we've all done them now except for Dilrock, if that is your real name.
But they are sweet gigs.
Yeah.
Any Tassie listeners, yeah, definitely go down to the Fresh Cafe in Launceston and the
Waratah Hotel in Hobart.
Did you go to the Servo near the Fresh Cafe?
No, it's near the Hobart one.
It's not.
I know where it was.
Was it in Launceston?
It's in Launceston.
Yeah.
It's in Launceston.
What are you doing?
A deal impression now.
Give me a pizza, motherfucker, in Launceston.
It is a Bollisimo.
What?
You mean the pie shop or Tinny's?
Is it Tinny's? Because that's what I was in touch with. It's a Servo. There's a pie shop called Yeah Or Tinnies? Is it Tinnies?
Because that's what I was in a chat with
There's a pie shop called Tinnies
There's an all night servo that does gourmet bakery goods
Well no, I didn't go there
An all night servo
That does gourmet
Yeah
I believe they call it down there 4 and 20
I tweeted about this the other day, but around the corner from that Fresh Gig,
there's a bottle shop called the 9-11 Bottle Shop.
Right.
Which struck me as a weird thing to latch on to.
Is it that thing of going, it's like what we were talking about,
going down on a plane and going, oh, let's just have sex.
It's the last thing.
It's like if you're in 9-11, wouldn't it be nice to have a few tinnies?
Yeah, I found that very odd.
Yeah.
It's an odd thing.
Yeah, because it's either been named after 9-11 happened or 9-11 happened and they went,
oh, nah.
Ah, people off again.
Yeah.
I'm kind of fond of the name.
We'd have to get the stationery changed, you know.
This is not going to be newsworthy for more than a week.
Feb's going to get his cock out again.
Someone's tittle fall out.
That's what I hope all the conspiracy theories are about.
George Bush was actually on tour in Tasmania
and he's like, went to 9-11, love it.
Love the idea of just talking about a bottle shop.
No, it's got a special place in his heart
because it was the cheapest slab he's ever bought in his life.
So he's like, I've got
to take this and run with it. I've got to spread
this message throughout the world.
I've got something that's a bit
overdue that I keep meaning to talk about.
It's basically
the podcast has
finally paid off for me.
What's happened is that someone
like a friend of the show,
what they have done is they have added me to the Maryborough Wikipedia page.
Oh.
Yeah.
So now if you go to the Maryborough Wikipedia page,
under notable people.
Yes.
You've got Jed Adcock who plays for AFL for the Brisbane Lions,
Troy Chaplin who plays for Richmond, Stuart Crammery who plays for Essendon,
Matthew Delvedova, Olympic basketballer.
Edmund Herring, Lieutenant Governor of Victoria and Chief Justice of Victoria.
John Nicholls, Premiership Player of Carlton.
And Carl Chandler, stand-up comedian.
Stand-up comedian and co-host of the Little Dum Dum Club podcast.
Excellent.
But do any of those things have a link?
Do you yourself have an article now? Oh, no. Or is your name in red? No, it's not. Excellent. But do any of those things have a link? Like, do you yourself have an article now?
Oh, no.
Or is your name in red?
No, it's not.
No, I don't have a page.
Get onto that, whoever added him to the movie.
Yeah.
But your childhood friends who were in a well-known Australian band, have they not made the cut?
No.
Well, you know what?
I think that basically when they had to do
interviews with anyone
they would go
where did you grow up?
And they're like
it's not important.
Sold out.
The anti-you.
The opposite of you.
You can't talk about it enough.
Yeah, yeah.
I haven't been there
for two years but still.
Love it.
I love the idea of it.
But that must be
a good feeling though.
Yeah, I love it.
But what I'm more fascinated with is I'm positive that no one in Maribor remembers me
or knows what a podcast is or anything like that.
So they've got to have, like I'm pretty sure they have the internet now
and they've got to have looked themselves up on that page and then gone,
what the fuck is this?
Yeah.
I love that they've finally got the internet in Maryborough
and the first thing they do is,
what the fuck else is there to do in Maryborough?
We better look up ourselves just to see if this thing's real.
No, they're like, oh, we know.
We've been to the Ballarat McDonald's.
I wonder if they've got one in Bendigo.
Is there a Bendigo McDonald's?
Ask Jews.
I want someone to put me on the Notable People of Melbourne.
Is that any chance of having the Melbourne Wikipedia page?
What about your school?
Would you have notable people from your school?
Yeah, maybe There's already a couple of people from my year level
Who are doing things
Who are doing pretty well
Yeah
Well, I'm more keen to find out how you found out about it
Were you googling
Mary Burra
No it was sent to me
The person who
Changed it for me
We've got to explain to Dilrock
When there's people that like
What you do in comedy
They're called fans
They don't just complain
To the establishment
Like you'll probably experience it
It's about time Dilrock
Got taken down a peg or two
On this podcast
Because he's had it
Too fucking good so far.
He's been getting away with it for far too long.
Oh, you're lardy darn not pissing on the toilet floor.
So that's fans, is it?
What is it?
Fans.
Okay.
Our approach to quotes supporting new comedians,
anytime we have someone on this show who's not, like, you know, been on before,
it's just, like, Woodbury, just any...
We just fucking bully them.
We just drive them into the ground.
And Paul, I'm finally in the room where all these people...
Shut the fuck up!
It's the podcast equivalent of, like, working at a plumber's
and going, can you go down the hardware store
and buy us a Skyhook?
And they get down there,
there's no such thing as a Skyhook, fuckhead.
Yeah, the podcasting
apprenticeship.
Yeah, yeah.
I think that's why
I was on the first episode
because I was the only one
that I could walk in.
What's this all about?
Shut up, you fucking idiot.
I don't like it.
Mate, you guys should
host my birthday one year.
Just getting back
to the school thing,
I've put myself through the idea,
like you have those grand moments where you go,
what if I ever got asked to go back to school and do something?
Would I do it?
Yeah.
And I honestly don't know if I would
because I remember being that age
and I remember any time anyone came in,
no matter who they were,
I'd just be like, this guy is a cunt.
I don't need to know anything about him.
And just knowing that there'd be people, you know what I mean?
I don't think I could do it.
Would you do a gig at your school?
Well, I'd be more scared of physical violence.
Yeah, right.
That's more, yeah.
I have debated over the years whether to go back and do a gig
and I sort of think, oh, no one remembers me,
and my friends moved away from Mirabarra.
Yeah.
When we all get to 16, 17 years old and just go, boom,
let's just tell Mum and Dad we're going to McDonald's and not come back.
So I don't really know many people that live there anymore,
so I think the only people that would have any fascination with seeing me
would be like someone going,
I remember this dickhead from school.
He wasn't funny.
Let's turn up and deliberately not laugh.
Right.
That's my idea of how the gig would happen.
Yeah.
But I feel like it would be a thing where you'd get asked to do it
just because you're a notable kind of graduate.
And then, yeah, of course no one there is going to know who you are.
I got asked last year to go and speak at Westbourne Grammar School to the Year 12 students. Really? I was in LA with you blokes. Yeah. And then, yeah, of course no one there is going to know who you are. I got asked last year to go and speak at Westbourne Grammar School to the Year 12 students.
Really?
I was in LA with you blokes.
Right.
Yeah.
So who did they get instead?
Like one of the really good cleaners from years ago?
He's mean.
Hey, mate, I'll have you know Julian Knight went to my high school, all right?
Really?
Yeah.
Hoddle Street Hero?
Is that the...
I don't know what his nickname was
we got in trouble
Julian Knight
was the guy
that did the
Hoddle Street Massacre
and we got
before my time
yeah that's why
we're all laughing
so
yeah
I'm going to explain
what jokes
out of this look
I'm representing
your international listeners
who don't know
who Julian Knight is
I didn't know
who Julian Knight was
either
yeah Hoddle Street Massacre
I used to get in trouble
on one of those days,
one of the days called
when like parents,
prospective students
turn up to the school
and they get shown around.
Oh,
open day?
Yeah,
open day.
Yeah.
And they'd be like,
was there anyone famous?
And I,
yeah,
Julian Knight?
Mr. Cody,
please go to the...
Yeah.
I like to think that 10 years from now someone's going to say,
Nick Cody, and they're like, Mr. Little Kiddo,
when you go to the principal's office,
don't bring up that fuckhead's name in our school ever again.
I like to think that the teachers have gone off at you thinking,
you shouldn't say Julian Knight because the parents might think
that he learnt that in gun class.
When was this? The Hottel Street?
Oh, you've never heard of...
No, no.
This is like one of the biggest tragedies in Melbourne's history.
Yeah, no, I honestly...
That's great.
I'm so glad you're here.
Yeah.
You're making me feel less like a dick.
Yeah.
Let's not go into complete detail about it, but I think like 20, 30 years ago...
Why not?
It's been pretty funny so far.
It was before 9-11 bottle shop.
Yeah.
Actually, you know what?
There is a Hottel Street milk bar.
I presume it's named after that tragedy as well, so... Yeah, actually, you know what? There is a Hoddle Street Milk Bar.
I presume it's named after that tragedy as well.
So roughly when was this?
Oh, this would have been late 80s.
Oh, okay.
I thought you meant like he was in your year.
And I was wondering, because this then must have happened a few years ago, in which case, how have I not heard about this?
Wow, okay. Yeah, how have I not heard about this? Wow.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's old school.
Do you want to get on Wikipedia right now and put Nick Cody into the Julie Wikipedia page?
Yeah.
Under a compost?
No, man.
We have gone way too far with this.
Let's talk about something else.
Notable schoolmates.
Nick Cody, stand-up comedian and host of podcast Something for the Drive Home.
Oh, man.
Jesus.
What about this?
I know this is one of your favourite subjects, Nick Cody.
I went to a wedding yesterday.
Took up a whole day of my weekend.
Yours?
No, I would have probably prefixed.
Surprisingly, not married yet.
Was that why you were doing the marathon today?
Are you like Runaway Bride?
Runaway Crew?
Yeah.
And my girlfriend, or now wife, nearly caught me.
That's why I was like, no!
Fuck off, man!
No.
I went to a wedding.
And you know what just struck me?
I don't know.
Have you been to weddings before, Tommy, or not?
I've been to – I went to Josh Earle's wedding.
Oh, yeah?
And then, like, cousins' weddings when I was, like, a little kid.
But I haven't really been – I haven't kind of reached the point yet
where, like, my school friends, like, that are getting engaged
or anything like that.
It hasn't quite started happening yet.
Yeah.
But I reckon it's close.
Anyway, Cody, you've been to some.
Yeah, yeah. Dilrock, you went to your arranged one, obviously.
Fuck off.
Is that the only reason?
You thought that up today, didn't you?
Like earlier today.
No, no, no, no, I didn't.
I thought of it then.
This has a point to it.
It wasn't just an excuse to say that.
And then move on.
He was actually a part of a dowry.
They got Dilrach and a pig and a sheep.
I was going for a couch.
Yeah, I got it.
I was with you.
We're back to fatness now.
We move from race.
Let's the jury show that Dilrach has laughed at all of this so far.
One of my favourite things is racism when it show The Dillrack has laughed At all of this so far One of my favourite things
Is racism when it's
When it's wrong
Like when it's just off
Like it's just
As a poster of the right racism
Yeah exactly
Yeah that I can't stand
I like the really accurate stuff
That was a Daryana fat joke
I thought I nailed it
Anyway
Is this still a thing
Like this is obviously Traditionally correct still a thing?
This is obviously traditionally correct and a thing that people used to do.
Do people still have, like, one side of the chapel
is for one family
and the other side is for the other side of the family?
That's still a thing, isn't it?
I just find that ridiculous.
Why is there a need for that?
Because to me it just seems like you're at the footy
and you're sort of being split in half.
Like one team's on one side.
Like an English Premier League game.
Yeah.
You've just been segregated by the aisle
and you're both like barracking for your man,
going, I hope he gets married before she does.
Yeah, marry the shit out of her, bro.
We won.
Oh, no, we're taking that one.
Yeah.
I just find that weird, like you can't just sit among,
like we actually sat on one side and it was like,
no, no, you're on the wrong side.
Like, really?
Are you trying to be like the Rosa Parks of weddings?
You're right, it is pretty weird because like you would think...
That would be awesome if they had actually said,
no, you can sit up the back of the wedding.
You just come back from Thailand, you've got a pretty severe tan.
It's pretty weird because like,
yeah, I mean the whole thing is
these people are coming together
and they're joining their lives together.
Yeah.
You would think having everyone
sit in amongst each other
would be symbolic of that.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
But we were physically moved.
Who was the,
whose wedding was it?
Like how close were you to that person?
It was my girlfriend's friends.
Okay.
Did they have a gift registry or did they have that wishing well bullshit?
The latter bullshit that you mentioned.
The wishing well one?
Yeah.
That nothing sickens me more than a wishing well.
Hey guys, we just dropped 30 grand on this day.
We'd love if you could give us a bit of cash.
Yeah.
How about save my Saturday and just buy your own shit?
I hate it.
That's the thing.
My cousins got married recently and they did that and there was a lot of uproar in the
family about it.
I don't get why people give a shit.
You're going to get a gift.
You're going to spend the money anyway.
What do you give a fuck if people want to spend the money on their honeymoon?
I don't see why people get worked up about it. Should we just scale back the day and then just use your own money to buy it?
Yeah, but then what?
You're going to ask if you're still going to have a gift registry and ask for a heap of shit.
Because the wishing well is like, guys, we've got everything we need,
but if you give us some cash, we'll figure out some other shit in the future.
There's always going to be new Xbox games.
Pay for the honeymoon. This won't last. We'll need this money for the future. There's always going to be new Xbox games. Pay for the honeymoon.
This won't last. We'll need this money for the divorce.
That's what it should be. The money should
go into a safe account
that's locked down and then if you have a divorce
it busts it open
and you both use it to go through the
tricky and heartbreaking court proceedings.
Would that really entice you
to put more money towards it?
This is just going to go to the courts. I'll chuck $200. in heartbreaking court proceedings. So would that really entice you to put more money towards... For sure. Really?
Fuck yeah.
Yeah.
If you thought, this is just going to go to the courts.
Yeah.
I'll chuck 200. No, it means that it's not going to bankrupt them,
if anything.
Like my mate, if she cheats on him or whatever
and they get divorced,
it's not going to mean he loses all his money.
I'll chip in a little bit now so that if...
I love my optimistic...
I'm going to say it.
I'm the only one that's got the balls to say it.
I'm onto something here.
You're breaking ground.
I've really done it.
Divorce parties.
Let's do it.
Now can I say what you just said now that you've broke the barrier for me to say?
I wasn't listening.
I had a mate's wedding about a couple of months ago
and they had gift registry and I bought them some,
I can't even remember it was
like whatever the it's just the rice yeah the rice to get to the chicken you got to the end
and there was only like five chickens yeah yeah like hand towels and rings for hand towels and
stuff so that's why i got them a bunch of stuff when you get down to the point where it's like
you don't really want this at all you just felt like you had to put a certain number of things for a certain number of guests.
I've ordered it, but I'm quite broke at the moment,
and it got rejected.
So my credit card got – they said, oh, there's not enough money or whatever.
And they said, well, we'll hold it for you.
And I get paid on a Thursday.
I was like, oh, okay, cool.
I'll sort it out on the Thursday.
You put your gift on lay-by.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I never got around to it.
And I only remembered on Thursday I got a letter in the mail from my friends
thanking me for me showing up to the wedding and getting them a gift.
I'm like, I guess my job's done.
They think I bought them something.
Perfect.
But I feel bad.
I feel like I need to still give them something.
But I don't know.
Maybe I might.
Yeah.
Yeah, they got it, didn't they?
They assume I've given them something.
I don't.
You know what?
Is that what a Sri Lankan giver is? Yeah, they got it, didn't they? Yeah, they assume I've given them something. I don't, you know what, I'm not...
Is that what a Sri Lankan giver is?
I could see you like...
Speaking of lengthy court proceedings...
This is a racist one that makes sense.
Finally.
Shout out to the jury who are listening to this episode
in the court case against Cody and Chandler and me.
I've got a Fool's Festival show ready next year.
By booing.
The Little Sad Sad Club featuring Fatty McPiper.
But, no, I do agree with both your points.
Yeah, I'm torn on that whole wishing well thing
because it's like, you know what, it makes sense.
Technically, it makes sense.
But it's also that thing of people going,
I want some money.
And I'm like, no, you're not allowed to ask for money.
It's so cold.
It feels like, and it's also like how much you put in.
Because when it's broken down,
we're going to waste your Saturday
and you're going to give me some money for that.
It's just like being bullied for a whole Saturday. Like, you're going to dress up Saturday and you're going to give me some money for that. It's just like being bullied for a whole Saturday.
Like, you're going to dress up.
You don't want to.
You're going to come here.
You don't want to.
You're going to get us a thing.
You don't want to.
And give us some of your money.
But see, to me, like, I...
And again, I've not been in the position
where that's been an option presented to me.
But to me, like you're saying,
it's a lot of time out of your life and whatever.
To me, the wishing well thing is like, well, at least that's a lot of time out of your life and whatever to me
the wishing well thing is like well at least that's one less thing to do i don't have to go
to fucking david jones i just turn up i get me wallet out i just chuck money at whoever i'm into
it for that reason because it is it is already a big commitment and by the way i always do the
give the money thing i'd prefer to give the money than look for a gift. It's just that not – there should be a – An option to not give them anything.
Just a durable option.
Like give some more money, you know.
You want to opt out.
Because they're pretty much just going to give us cash.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think it's weirder when like people will do it.
I've seen people do it for like birthdays and stuff like that.
Like when someone's having a party and they go,
if you're going to get a gift, no thanks.
I'm going overseas and I'd just like your money.
It's like, eh, I'll be the judge of that, thanks.
The wedding thing, they're showing you how financially irresponsible they are
on that day.
My shoes cost me $1,500.
Can't borrow $20 to put on a lay-by for a flight to Bali.
No, you fucking shit. Stop wasting money on the lay-by for a flight to Bali. No. You fucking shit.
Stop wasting money on the shoes and just get the flight.
Yeah.
Have you been asked to do any, like, comedy,
anything at any friends' weddings or anything like that?
No.
I've had people.
It's from my website.
I'm going to be the emcee at a wedding soon.
Oh, really?
Yes.
Who's?
A friend of the show?
A friend of the show?
Will Anderson?
No.
Pete Sharkey?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Nice.
Wow.
Yeah.
That is one of the biggest human errors I've ever heard of.
Well, I was thinking...
Both of those families are going to come together in their church to boo the MC.
You got your wish, fuckhead.
No, you know what?
I was watching the MC last night going, and it calmed my jangled nerves.
Yeah, you don't have to do much.
I was watching it going,
I am not going to do as rotten a job as this guy.
Are there any spots?
How'd you get that?
Yeah, I think that's the term.
Are you doing a poster for it as well?
Sorry, what were you saying, Cody?
Wedding.
You got a job at a wedding?
So I've had, in the last six months,
three people contact me through my website
wanting me to be the MC for their wedding.
Go, hey, we saw you at this thing
or we saw your festival show.
We'd love to.
And I'm like, I'm pretty sure.
No, he's kidding.
He's kidding.
When he's screaming veins in his neck,
you fucking idiots. Don't do it. He's playing around.'s screaming veins in his neck. You fucking idiots.
Don't do it.
He's playing around.
It'd be great.
Yeah, I can see the potential in him to do the opposite of what he's doing at the moment.
It's actually like the marriage itself.
It's like, no, I think I can change him.
Because Dave Thornton said to me a little while ago,
he was like, I think we were at something and he was hosting,
he was emceeing a friend's wedding like the next day.
And he said to me, oh, you know, you'll probably be getting to this point now
where you're getting a little bit older and your friends start to get married
and so they hit you up to emcee the wedding because it's like,
and then it's like, oh, you'd be able to do it for free.
And yeah, you do comedy and you'll be able to come.
I'm like, I think you're severely overestimating my friend's faith in my abilities.
Like, I don't reckon I'm going to get ever asked to hold that.
I just thought that my best childhood mate.
You what, sorry?
A mate that I've been friends with since we were four.
I've just knocked him back.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
How come?
Not paying enough?
No, he was just saying, like, in in the future If you wanted to do it
Would I do it
And I was like
No I can't do it
Because you know him too well
Or
No just because I cannot
Like first
It's mainly the pressure thing
Like it would be
Someone's biggest day ever
Yeah
You don't want that
I don't want that pressure on me
Would you rather do it
Like for someone
Because I reckon it would be easy
Doing it for someone
That you don't know at all
Someone who's just seen you
And liked your stuff
And want you to do it
It's weird
Because everything I've said
About thinking the whole day Is ridiculous Goes against what your stuff and want you to do it it's weird because everything I've said about
thinking the whole
day is ridiculous
goes against
what I'd be saying
there
and then it just
feels weird
I got a year
into starting stand-up
I got given
an MC gig
at a wedding
and it was given
to another comedian
who does a lot of
it was like an Indian
wedding and there's
a lot of ethnic
based material
and I don't do
any of that
chop this out
and just Chop this out.
Tommy's just hitting his head.
Thinking, I cannot believe I'm going to take
two weeks to edit this.
You're right.
I bombed in front of 400 people.
Don't say the word bomb.
You notice I haven't said a single one.
I've been saving it.
I've been saving the juice up.
You get nervous when you see a bomb and when should the word bomb be?
Yeah, no, you're right.
I just felt like I ruined two people's special day
because all of a sudden there was 10 minutes of all their guests
just staring at someone trying to be funny with clean material
that he's never done before yeah yeah i couldn't do it for friends for that reason because you
you know everyone a bit too well in the pressure i took the cash though yeah it made me feel better
threw it back into the wishing well first big paid you took cash out of their wishing well
yeah i did a a free gig uh emceeing a charity night uh and i'd been like sober for a whole
month and i dedicated that day that i'm going to get drunk at this thing and it was like a a free gig emceeing a charity night and I'd been like sober for a whole month
and I dedicated that day
that I'm going to get drunk
at this thing
and it was like
a gig for
it was for kids
it was for disabled children
and all this good wine
and stuff
but then I got there
after
I'm just going to not say
anymore
everything that popped
in your head
yes yes
it's a rolodex
but this was about
200 people
and they were all
cashed up bogans,
and at one point this one table, just one dude just kept yelling,
Oi, Kuma! Oi, Kuma!
And I was like, give me a bottle of wine, and he started drinking.
I can't believe we haven't brought this up yet.
You've kind of come up before on this show.
A few months ago there was a dude who wanted Chandler to do a gig in his
backyard for his birthday that we were talking about.
Yeah.
And you were the person, you were the comedian that ended up doing it.
Well, I remember listening to that episode, hearing you guys discuss, I think it was like
Charlie Pickering and Hamilton as well?
It was Pickering and Hamilton, yeah.
So all of you talking about-
At this very table.
Right.
And you're talking about what's the minimum you would have accepted
to go to a dude's house for his 30th birthday to do a gig in his backyard.
And I'm listening to how you guys are just talking about
what's the absolute minimum.
And I'm listening going, I've fucking already done that gig
not knowing it was paid.
I was like, yeah, someone wants me to do a thing on a Saturday night.
I'm free.
The champ was like, I would rather turn up to a show called
This Nation is Very Talented and
Bomb for Free.
I'd rather spend
11 hours
being abused
by a Spice Girl.
Hey, look,
at the end of it,
the chick off the Coles had and Kyle got married.
So, you know, that was...
What a hopeless attempt at tying it all in together.
And then they pissed all over a toilet at the wedding reception.
Yay!
Hey, mate.
Well, guys, that brings us to the end of Little Dum Dum Club for another week.
Dale and Cody, thank you very much for joining us.
Dale, have you got things coming up that you would like to plug?

I probably should have been mentioning a bit more before now,
but, you know, the rooms that I run or help run,
like Spleen on Mondays and Felix Bar on Wednesdays
and Five Bars on Thursdays,
had a lot of Dundon fans coming up while they've been in town
from interstate
in that if they couldn't see a gig with me or you on, Tommy,
they've just come to that room
and got to see a bunch of people
that have been on the show before
and they've come and gotten to see me,
introduced the MC,
and that's about it.
For 20 minutes, yep.
So, yeah, thanks for coming in
