Hey, mate, welcome into the Little Dumb Dumb 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, dickhead. Yeah. Hey, Melbourne at the moment is in the grip of Bieber fever. Do you know what that is?

Yeah, I know what that is. Yeah, you've heard of that before? I've heard of fever. Mm-hmm. Yep. It's not an actual illness. Right. People aren't in the hospital.

Justin Bieber. Yes. Of music fame. Yes. Teen pop idol. Yep. I was in at a radio station the other day. Yes.

And it was a radio station where he was scheduled to make an appearance. So I rock up out the front and there's like all these like young screaming girls and there's like cops there. Easy joke. I won't make it. Yeah. This is the first time you've ever held yourself back. Wow. You are becoming a man.

You're growing up. I went through a story. I thought, you know, let him have this. Okay. Yeah. It's like you can fill in the blanks listening at home. Yeah. So it was pandemonium. There were a lot of cops around to try and control the scene,

like a lot of girls in homemade T-shirts and stuff. And I normally would never give a shit about Justin Bieber at all. Like if someone said, do you want to meet him? I'd go, I couldn't care less. But then once you're around that kind of environment, like it's infectious. I'd be excited. Yeah. So I went from not caring at all to when I was in the elevator going up to the studio,

I was like, I really hope I see him. Like I got really, really excited. And then, uh, yeah, I was standing around and he walked right past me. Oh, wow. Got a bit of a g'day and got a bit of a nod back. It was exciting. It was really, really exciting. It would have been.

I mean, you two have got, you know, shared and related things. You've both been mistaken for girls a lot of times. Yes. You're probably about the same height. Does he get mistaken for girls? Does that happen? Yeah, people make jokes all the time about that. Oh, okay.

Well, he's lost the fringe. He's done the haircut that everyone used to make fun of. Right. He's got like a big spiky sort of dude now. Right, now he's got the Rachel. Yeah. Yeah. He's like gone from little Bow Wow to. Right. He's got like a big spiky sort of dude. Right. Now he's got the Rachel. Yeah. Yeah. He's like gone from little Bow Wow to Bow Wow.

He's got the little. But then I, when I left, there's like the radio station in question, it's next to a supermarket and there's like an underground car park that all these like young girls were crowding around the exit to the car park. Yeah. And any car that came out, like a busted up Barina, they were like, oh, Justin! And all the paps were there. And it's like, first of all,

as if they're even going to be parking his limo in the Coles car park. That's not happening. But it made me wish if I'd known that was going to be happening when I rocked up, I would have deliberately parked in the car park and paid to be in there. Just to get that sweet moment of coming out, you know. That would have been sweet if he had done the interview and then gone and got a couple of hands of bananas down there at $4.99 a kilo. Yeah, a couple of Milky Ways, a little sweet treat, post-interview sweet treat.

Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it was exciting. A little brush with fame. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. And then I was texting, I believe I was texting you to tell you about it on the drive home and I got pulled over by the cops. Oh, really?

Yep. You know what? I've got to cut that out because I'm not, yeah, I'm a bad person. Yeah. And I have, you know what? I keep seeing cars in front of me getting pulled over and stuff like that. I'm one car off getting pulled over so many times. Yeah.

I've got to put all it on it. I mean, I'm bad with it. I've never gotten caught, so I sort of figure, you know, this is what this is. To be fair, you love it. Like, I know you... Well, I don't love it. I think you do. I don't love that I've gotten a fine.

No, no, not love it. Not love a fine, but love the phone in the car. Oh, yeah, big time. I've been in the passenger seat, and as soon as there's any delay in traffic, you pick up the phone and go, da-da-da-da, and I'm like, wow, you are... Yeah. Now, there's been no retweets you pick up the phone and go, da-da-da-da-da, and I'm like, wow. There's been no retweets in the last four and a half seconds. Yeah.

I was stopped at traffic lights checking my phone and there was a truck next to me and the guy kind of had his window down and I had my window down and he leans over and he goes, watch where you're going, you fucking idiot, and then drives off. And my first instinct was, this would make a great tweet. Like, it's just so deeply ingrained in my generation-wide mind. There's no, you know, it's boring.

Being at the traffic lights is boring. I would have been tempted to take a twit pic of this guy spitting venom at you. Yeah, for sure. They need to put little videos at the traffic lights. Just say that again, mate. I just want to Instagram it. Yeah. Just look directly at the iPhone.

Oh, put the dickhead filter on there. Oh, you look like a 40s truck driver now. Hooray. Should we get into it? Let's introduce our guest for today. Woo! The good bit. Making a grand return for the program.

She has not been on in quite some time. You know her from the Download podcast. Please welcome back into the Little Dumb Dumb Club, Geraldine Hickey. Yeah! She's awesome. She's back. I'm back. Episode seven. That's how long it's been. Wow. And so long that I wasn't gay last time.

Yeah, I was going to say that. Was that anything to do with being on here or? Maybe a little, maybe a little. Yeah. Wouldn't that be great if every time we had people on, they just changed sexuality? Like every time they weren't on. But only girls. After dealing with us two, it was just like, nah, if this is the best it's going to get.

I think it would be with everyone. Like we have a guy in here. They leave the show. They become gay. I don't think that would make any sense. They come back in. They go straight. I don't think we could make any guy gay.

Can I just say that I didn't become gay. I just realised that I was. I should point that out. You just remembered. We made you realise. Yeah. Yeah. You were one of my signs.

We were like a massive stop sign. Yeah. Literally. Oh, what have I done? And making another return to the program, he has been... Begrudgingly. Begrudgingly. Only on the show two short weeks ago,

there was a bit of controversy regarding him in last week's episode. He's demanded to be on. Yeah, so if you haven't heard last week's episode yet, pause this, go back and listen, and you'll understand a bit more what's going on. Or don't listen to it. Back in here to defend himself against some of the charges levelled against him.

Please welcome back onto the program, Luke McGregor. Boom! Yay! Well, thanks for having me. So what's the easiest way to sort of describe what's the situation? Let's do a little recap of last week. Should we do a little recap of last week? On last week's show, I said, very quickly, I said, I'd had a conversation with Luke.

Luke had said that he'd got, he'd said, thankfully, he got a lot of followers on Twitter because of the show. And I very quickly sort of said, well, oh, well, you should mention the show maybe. And he said, that is not part of my Twitter policy. I do not respond to people on Twitter. I do not retweet. That's my Twitter policy, which I sort of took as being a bit showbiz and being out of the reach of what I saw as Luke McGregor.

That word for word and in the same tone as I said it. So that was it. Now, that was what I put out there. And then I talked to Luke and went, oh, you should listen to this week's episode. You get a nice mention. And then I've had nothing but phone calls and tears since. Just anger. No, not anger. Now let's just quickly, before we get into this, Hickey, what do you make of this situation?

Do you have any kind of Twitter policy? No, no, not at all. But where did it come about? Where did the philosophy come about? Carl sent me a text. Saying you need to write out a Twitter policy and then stick to it? Where did your policy come from? Why did you decide that you don't retweet and you don't respond? When did you stop being such a good bloke? Carl sent me a text that said, give us a dum-dum retweet or we'll never drag you across the country to talk to you for two minutes

on our show again. Was that me? No, it was probably somebody else. And then I rang him and said, I feel bad plugging stuff I'm in. So even when Campbell and I – But why? When Campbell and I did our festival show, I didn't even plug that.

I just... Yeah, that's because it was not good. I didn't even join the Facebook event group. Oh, so you've got a Facebook policy as well. I always feel bad advertising myself, so I just don't... That's not what you said to me on the phone. My theory is this.

It's not really... Well, I guess it's a policy, I suppose. But I always think that if people like you, they will find you. Mate, it's not fucking 1976. It's 2012. It's like my life. I want it to be like National Treasure. Whenever I do a gig. I just do a little.

So you want Nicolas Cage at all of your gigs from now on? I want people to unlock the desk to find that I'm a spleen. All right, so once someone's found you, and where's their prize? They'll go, hey, Luke, how's it going? And then they get no response. Yeah, yeah. To be fair, that is not what you said to me on the phone, and I did tape it, so let's have a listen.

Hi, Carl, it's Luke. To be fair, that is not what you said to me on the phone, and I did tape it, so let's have a listen. I can't look. I won't talk to anyone or retweet anyone on Twitter because I hate everyone. There you go. Oh, that is... Wow. Compelling evidence. You bastard.

It's like, you know how breakfast radio people get in at like three in the morning to do work before the six o'clock shift? Yeah. That was me on the phone on the way in today, on the car. No, but it's funny how Luke, when Luke doesn't think he's being taped, he sounds a lot more like Carl. Like, it's good of you when you're on the show with Carl to kind of take the Carl-ness out of your voice so there's not confusion. You know what? The radio adds 10 pounds to the larynx.

Clearly Tommy has a very large... In real life, Tommy's voice is literally helium. Yeah, that's why it's a miracle that people can even have conversations with me in the studio. You're guessing what I'm saying. Before we started this podcast, dogs were well aware of the show before it even started coming out. We've got a very similar voice. Yeah.

Well, someone wrote in recently and said that the recent episode that Anne Edmonds was on was a nightmare for them to listen to because it just sounded like me talking to myself. Your friends came to see my comedy festival show and I do my own introduction and they were convinced that you were doing my introduction. They came up to me afterwards and said, hey, that's pretty funny. You know, you do Hickey's introduction to her show because, you know, people say that you sound like a little lesbian and it was kind of that her show was about coming out.

And I was like, I didn't do that. And I reckon I know what's going on here. And then I saw you later that night. I went, hey, I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to this question, but who introduces you on the stage? And you said me. And I went, oh, I'm going to go drink a bit. You've got a beautiful voice.

What gets me about that is that it's not only a girl's voice, but they pick your sexuality out of your voice as well. I don't get it. Yeah, I don't know. But hey, can we go back to you? The not replying thing, I can tell you where it started. I was replying to people at first, and then a girl who listened to the

Green Guide podcast wrote, I'm crushing on Luke McGregor, and I didn't know what to write back. And then I tried to think know what to write back So I And then I tried to think of something to write back I couldn't think of anything And then sort of time passed

And I'm like Oh now it's Now it's been like a week and a half And I still haven't written anything Now it's weird And I thought Maybe if I don't Reply to anything

It just looks like I don't So it's So literally It was literally that And then someone else wrote back This will be worth it. If no one ever finds out about a Comedy Festival show, I do it ever again.

And then I just sort of went, well, maybe I should just give it a minute and then just get on. Because I don't get on Twitter heaps. I've only got like, I've got 37 Twitter. I've got more now, I think. You've got a big cloud score, though, we found out. Oh, yeah. And then I just, but now I, so I started replying again because I felt bad.

And then I can't get it. I can't. Her tweet is gone now. They only keep so many new mentions. And now I can't reply to her. So if you're listening, thank you. Not only that, she's dead, Luke. She's passed on.

If you were still up there, what would your reply be? Not other than thanks. Ask her out. Yeah, okay. Let's do it. Let's go out. Oh, that was one thing. You know that,

what's the, at the gig at Soft Belly. Yes. Someone said, last Thursday night. Yeah, someone, someone said, who listens to Dum Dum, I don't know if I should name him or not.

I was talking to the girl at the door who was quite pretty. And this guy goes, oh, Liv McGregor talking to women. And then it's pretty hard to still look like a cool guy after that. I'll have to change. I was, I don't know, I'll have to change, I don't know what to do. I have to write a whole bunch of jokes

about how good I am at sex or something. Well, maybe, maybe you'll just have to Geraldine Hickey it up and as soon as you finish the show,

change sexuality. Done. Yeah. All right. Are you, are you more comfortable talking to boys? Yeah,

no, that's pretty good. Got that down. We've decided what's happening here. The sexuality police are here and we've put the hammer down. Yeah, we've got a pretty in-depth and mature view of sexuality, obviously. So we've just decided what's going to happen. He'll look for the rest of his life. So has your Twitter policy changed now? Oh, I still, I don't know.

I just, I don't get on there that much. So I don't, do you guys, I know you delete your replies after a while, don't you, Carl? So when you, people look at your Twitter profile, it's just your tweets. Yeah, I just have lots of jokes. So I reply to people, but then I delete it after they read it. Yeah, that's what I do as well. Yeah. I think I've got some people, should I just reply to them now?

Sure. Yeah, let's have some replies. Okay. Timothy Odo. to them now? Sure. Let's have some replies. Okay. Timothy Odo? No. Tim Odo? Tim Odo. I'm a big fan through Dumb Dumb Club, but heard about your Twitter policy.

I will not follow you. I don't expect a reply. So I did. I said, you've still got to be best man at my wedding. And then he said, this changes nothing. Nothing. So I he said, this changes nothing. So I'm sorry, buddy. But thank you.

Very quickly, while you scroll through and find these, to be honest, I'll recap what happened during the week where we put this episode out and I told Luke and Luke got very concerned and I got quite a few phone calls from him being very worked up. I told you I've texted you. I said I've apologised to a guy who stepped on my foot once.

So of course I'm going to worry about it. In my head I'm going, oh, I know everyone hates me. And that's all I thought about at work and then I'm thinking about it and I go, I'll just ring Carl again. That'll make me feel better. Because you were, you would call me and then I'd go, well, what do you want Luke? And you'd go, oh, I just thought I'd call you.

And I'm like, I just wanted to talk to you. That's it. That was it. I was like, I could feel you going. You wanted to sort of say, Hey man, this is, this is not on. I didn't like what you did or whatever. It was like, you just ring up and go, it's me. Because I tried to ring Tommy as well when you said,

Luke McGregor will not be changing his Twitter policy. I'm like, no. Tell him I give to charity or something. You should reply to charity on Twitter from now on. It's very loose. I do reply to people now. There's a couple I haven't replied to. Burt Maverick, I'm confused about all this.

If I unfollow, can I still get a free Xbox? Because I told someone I'd give him an Xbox. I can't remember why I did that, but it's going to be very expensive. And Michelle Edwards, can I borrow your phone? It's for an awesome practical joke. Yes, you can. That's a callback. She's brought a callback in.

That's good. I'm glad you're not wasting your Twitter feed on crummy replies and just wasting our bandwidth with it instead. I won't do any more. I won't do any more. I won't do any more. But it really did. I was worried about it. This is pretty disrespectful of our podcast policy.

I'm sorry. Do you have a guideline or anything for social media? I don't know. I try. No, not really. Like, yeah, I'm not on Twitter that much anymore. I think I'd probably tweet about once a week. Yeah, I'm even less.

I'm on the draft screen a lot. And then I delete them. You've got some quality tweets. Yeah. Oh, cheers. You've got some good ones. I especially enjoyed the Queen one, where you said, if I ever meet the Queen, I'm going

to say, oh, if it isn't my old arch nemesis, she runs with it. That's right. Hey, I want to be clear. We're not advertising Luke McGregor's Twitter feed on him. Yeah. I like that he just laughed at a retelling of his own tweet to him. Yeah, that was a great one. You can't retweet your own stuff.

That was in the top 10 of my 10 tweets. Oh, wow. I've only done, yeah. Yeah, we found out in Sydney we were hanging out with Dan Illick and he was telling us about Clout. Do you guys know that website Clout? I know the word. It measures your, it somehow measures your social media influence

through Twitter. So I guess it's based on a combination of how many followers you have, how many times you get retweeted, like all that kind of stuff. It takes into account all these different things. And 100 is like the highest. Mine was 47 and I've got nearly 2,000 followers. McGregor's got like a few hundred followers and his was like 42. And he barely tweets.

What's mine? Can we look it up? I don't know how you do it. I do a lot of TV commercials though. Oh, right. Just myself. For your Twitter feed. Hey, I'm out there.

I'm out there, guys. I won't reply, but come and join. But you won't retweet your own ad though. They'll unfollow me. Have you started retweeting? I think people did

unfollow me too. They didn't. You got more followers. No, no. It sort of kept fluctuating. It went up and down. Oh, but you're not on Twitter very much. No.

But you are on there. I just check, write a draft and then delete it. That's what happens. But do you retweet anything now? Or is that policy still stands? It wasn't really a policy. I just didn't really retweet. Have we learned anything out of any of this? It literally all came down with me feeling bad advertising myself.

That's what it came down to. Will you be promoting this episode of this show? I should. I'll tell my parents. Are you worried about coming across as a bit, I don't know... I'm worried people will go, stop telling me bad stuff. Stop following me and wanting to know stuff about me. To be fair though, there is that fine line between, you know, you do accept some people go, hey, I'm doing the show,

and you go, fair enough. But then there's some people that do it, not to name any names, but there are some people. There's a fine line with self-promotion. There is. Like some things you accept and then some people do it all the time and you go, why don't you just back off. That fine line from McGregor is one.

I think Jimmy James has got a good policy. He says, if I do an ad, I'll tweet a gig. I'll immediately do a tweet straight after. It's just like a funny tweet. Oh, yeah. So he'll save up his joke tweets and then just put them straight after he's plugged a gig. So people don't get just an ad from him. I thought that was a good way to do it.

Yeah, that's all right. That's all right. Yeah. I'm not a fan of the humble brag in tweets. You mean like the feed or when people do it? When people do it. You know, there's the account, like the humble brag account. But yeah, just the whole, I know you mean the whole idea of that sort of thing where

it's like, oh, stuck in traffic on my way to the airport going to London. Oh, FML. Hey, I just picked up you're going to London. I'll say this. I'm going to London tomorrow. And I will not be, my least favorite thing is when people do the old on Facebook tagging themselves at the airport, Melbourne International Departure Lounge,

and then a photo of fucking the plane. See you, everyone. Enjoy winter, assholes. My absolute least favourite thing. If your holiday is looking like it's going to be that shit, that you need to do that to give yourself some thrill, you're going away. You don't need to rub it in any further.

Just enjoy being away without having to rub our noses in it. But when you're at the airport tomorrow, you're going to twit you're at the airport tomorrow, you're going to tweet about being at the airport. If I notice anything, if I observe any funny goings on. I doubt that will happen. You'll have a heap of stuff

I would say because no comedians have ever broached any topics at airports or airplanes, have they? No, it's an untapped resource. I think there's been a bit of a treaty on it where we're not allowed to touch it. But you know what? You will walk into that airport and just scream, Eureka! There is a gold mine here.

The jokes will be all over my face like oil. Like Daniel Plainview, just all over me. It'll be like when Neo saw The Matrix for the first time. Hey, we've got a policy about not promoting movies on... And guys, if you haven't seen that film, it's a real disease. Just Wachowski Brothers movies we don't want to promote. So no Speed Racer, no Matrixes. But don't you feel like when I'm at the airport, I always feel pressure that I should be tweeting that I'm at the airport.

I just want people to know that I'm slightly successful. Yeah, for sure. So there's that pressure. But then at the same time, I go, oh. I think the other day I was on Twitter and there were so many people at the airport. I was like, hey guys, I'm at the airport. Yeah, because it was, I mean, Edinburgh's coming up, so a whole bunch of people were heading off within a day or two of each other.

That's what it seems like to me on Facebook at the moment. It's not social media anymore. It's just keeping track of your friends in America because of the strength of the Australian dollar. It's just, look at me next to the Statue of Liberty. Yay! Do you know what else I hate on Facebook at the moment? It's all those people putting up those inspirational

quotes on posters. I can't stand it. Unfollow, or not unfriend, block. Maybe one of them will change my life, so I always read them. That was the one I'm confident now. Did you ever used to forward when you were younger when you'd get those chain emails that were like, send this to 10 people and you'll find your true love? No.

Did you ever do that? No. There was a window of about a year where I thought, look, it's probably bullshit, but just in case, I'm going to cover my bases and send this. Because there was a really scary one about some ghost girl. I can't remember what it was. Like the ring. Like a ring.

A scary email. Yeah. It was like a ring type scenario. R.L. Stein sent you an email. Were you reading an email around the campfire? It was something like you'll be dead or possessed or something. I can't remember what it was.

But they said, unless you tweet this, unless you send this to 10 people. You tweet this. So part of me was like, why don't you send this? And you wouldn't even do that. Like you... Well, part of me, I was,

I think I did say, because part of me was like, why do I want anyone else to be cursed by this? But I also don't want to be cursed myself. So I can't remember what I did with it.

I think I just... Killed yourself? I think I did. I think that's why I'm a curse. You hadn't worked out your hot male policy at this stage. So, yeah. I will... I know...

Sorry, I actually had a question for you. Actually, have you ever unfollowed anyone? Has anyone ever unfollowed anyone? Oh, for sure. For sure. Any of people. I actually do have a policy about that. It's to... Once I follow you? Oh, for sure. For sure. Any of people. I actually do have a policy about that. Is once I follow you, no matter what you do, I'm sticking with you.

Because it always hurts my feelings when I see the number go down. Yeah, that'll show. So I just stay. You follow. Once I follow you, I'm following you for life. You're safe. Do you know what would make you feel better? Like every time my numbers go down, I just assume that I was being followed by some sort of spam.

Bots. Yeah. Oh yeah, that's true. Because you do get those like just hot girls sometimes and it's just like. I get a lot of those. Yeah. You know the ones where they say, I'd love to have sex with a lot of people and then they just got no followers.

No, they were all real and you really fucked up. Oh damn. That was your window, McGregor. I should have clicked on the link. Getting back to Facebook annoyances. Now, I know this is a topic that will irk you somewhat, but the new Batman movie, you know, obviously it's out. Is it?

A lot of people talking about it on Facebook. That in itself is a thing that, you know, whatever, it's kind of annoying, but I'm fine with it. But I deleted someone. I haven't deleted anyone off my Facebook in ages. Someone pushed me to the edge. Someone gets on there, on my Facebook who, to start with, I don't even know how I, I don't even know how I know them.

You know what I mean? I've let them through in a moment of weakness ages ago. And they've gone to see Batman and they haven't liked it, which is fine. You can not like it. But he's put this big thing up going, and as for the ending, yeah, picked that. Fucking worked out the ending. What a load of shit. It's like, good on you. You managed to work out that Batman saves the day at the end of the

film. Fucking you get a medal. You deserve a medal. Alright, that's it. You're deleted as well. You're off. You're all deleted. I'm on my account right now. You're all out. You're all unfriended. We're all going to IMAX to say that. Have you organised that yet? I'm getting onto it. I will. Carly, you'll be going with them, won't you? I'm not going. Did you see the other two?

I saw one. I'm not sure which one. But you know what? I really didn't like it that much. Really? Tommy, by the way, we're seeing Ghostbusters at my house on Blu-ray. Oh, okay. Sure. You haven't seen it, have you? No. What?

This is going to be like showing my child for the first time. That's how proud I'm going to be when you watch it. Did you have one of those when you were a kid? Do you have a Ghostbusters t-shirt with a ghost and a glowing dart? I had a full suit and the... Did you really? Yeah, the whole lot. I didn't have the backpack, but I had a...

Did you have a black friend that you didn. I didn't have the backpack, but I had this... Did you have a black friend that you didn't talk to that much? You betcha. It was a proton pack, but without the pack. It just was the gun. Yeah, yeah. And it ironically made the ghost appear as well as zapping them. Because to zap a ghost, it also served as a projector to make the ghost.

Hang on, is this the ghost that came out of your email account after you didn't forward that chain mail on? I didn't have, I managed to get it with the, I couldn't think of a joke. So this was officially, this was like merchandise. This is like a, right. It had batteries and it made a noise. It was basically a portable projector. I was starting to think that you'd made this yourself.

I'm like, wow, look, McGregor. I'm pretty happy. Probably 50 cents went into Bill Murray's pocket because of you. Probably. That's pretty good. Now we're friends. Follow me on Twitter, Bill. Did you read what he's doing at the moment?

He's doing this crazy party tour. Is that a real thing? Yeah. Because he's got this reputation for just rocking up to people's parties, like house parties and whatever. And, you know, everyone recognises him. It's like, oh, there's a stranger. Oh, it's Bill Murray.

And he's officially, he's announced that he's just going to go, he's given the dates of when he's going to go to all these different cities in America. And he's done this whole thing of like, if you want Bill at your party, he's going to, you know, you can submit requests and he's just going to be in the street. So if you're having a party on a certain night, you need to be able to put a banner out the

front of your house saying, Bill, you can crash our party. And you need to be able to provide a bed for him to sleep in. And if you can provide all that, put a sign out the front and if he sees it, he'll just rock up and do it. That's the best thing ever. Isn't it great? He's like a 60 year old man or something. It's Bill Murray.

It's awesome. Is he homeless? Is that why he's doing this? Yeah. How good is that? That's awesome. It's Bill Murray. Is he homeless? Is that why he's doing this? Yeah. How good is that? That's awesome. That is so cool. Wouldn't that be great if that's how they trick him into doing Garfield 3?

Yeah, I was going to say, it's sort of the same. You can do a voice here. Sort of the same policy as him doing Garfield, really. Trick him into Ghostbusters 3. Get him to start filming. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just put a sign at the front of Universal Studios' backlot or whatever. Fill it with ghosts.

You can crash here, and then you go through, and it's like, we're halfway through the movie, Bill. Here's the party. Have you heard about the story of why he ended up doing Garfield? Yes. Because he thought... The Coen brothers were making it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It had the same last name.

It was just a director with the last name Coen. So he just went, okay, this will be a gritty reboot of Garfield. John will get shot in the face by Odie. Yeah, I'll be part of it. I always thought if they had Tom Hanks playing John and then Bill Murray doing the voice, it would have been the best film ever. I'll have to write it, I guess.

Going back to the Twitter policy about you saying unfollowing. No, no, no, no, sorry. I think I'm just used to saying that now when I, come on. No, no, no, no, no, sorry. No, no, no, no, no. I think I'm just used to saying that now when I talk to you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, about everything. Oh, you want me to be your best man? Okay, I will. No, because a friend of the show, Xavier Michaelides,

he unfollowed someone. He was telling me the other day. He unfollowed someone. And then, oh, this was a little while back. He unfollowed someone. And then he met during the day this person who was staying with the person that he'd unfollowed and the other person was just like complaining going oh i've had a really bad day and xavier's like why like oh the person i'm staying with has been furious all day just been

smashing stuff and just going why what what what, what for? Because he found out his numbers, his followers went down one. And he was just so upset. Like, why would they unfollow me? Who's done this to me? Whatever. And so he's like, it was me. And the girl just punched him. You have given me great grief today.

Who's the person? Is it someone we know? Yeah. Oh, God, I can't wait to hear this up there. That sounds amazing. That's great grief today. Who's the person? Is it someone we know? Yeah. Oh, God. I can't wait to hear this up there. That sounds amazing. That's great. Wow.

Do you look at it or do you just not worry about it? It sort of worried me. I think your policy about the bot policy is good. I imagine that it's a bot. Yeah. I'm going to do that from now on. I'm going to do that when I lose a friend too. I'm going to assume they were a robot.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's like that because it goes up and it friend too. I'm going to assume they were a robot. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's like that. Cause you know, it goes up and it goes down. You go, well, it goes up on it. Who are these people? Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. And it's the same thing. When it goes down, you go, well, I didn't know who they were. Cause I, I didn't, cause when, uh, it was, it was on this podcast, wasn't it? The John Saffron thing. Uh, there was someone unfollowed him and then he asked him about it live. Uh, maybe. No. I he asked him about it live?

Maybe. No. I think we talked about it. I think, didn't he ask, oh, didn't he ask Adam Zwaar at another thing? Maybe. Yeah. Okay. Who can keep up with that guy?

Yeah. Yeah. I think he asked Adam Zwaar. I think Adam Zwaar unfollowed him and then he asked him. He was in front of me in line at the supermarket the other night, Safran. Yeah. And I don't like talking to people at the supermarket. You know what I mean? Because you're always sort of on your own.

Everyone's on their own sort of path. Well, you're buying. What? You're buying dodgy stuff. Yeah. Because you know you bump into someone, you're on your way in, they're on their way out. You're in aisle 12 hardcore porn. Yeah, exactly.

You can't sync up with them in any way. You know what I mean? So you have a supermarket policy. Yes, I do have a supermarket policy. I want a quick wave. I want a wave g'day. And then I just want to be there. Well, it is that thing where you say hello to someone and then you take off separate

ways and then you join up in the next aisle and you just have to keep thinking of a new thing to go. Still shopping, are we? Yeah. Yeah. Looking forward to getting home, aren't we? Yeah. Oh, you look like you've got some good stuff in your trolley.

Yeah. Or if they're in front of you in the line and then, you know, you're talking to them and they get all their stuff before you. And then what's the etiquette there? Are they meant to wait around for you to have a chat on the way to the car or can they just leave? No, they can go. Oh, no, they can go. I want them to go.

I don't want to see them to begin with. Yeah. I'm on my own. I'm in the supermarket. I'm not there to socialise. So you wouldn't talk to someone in front of you because you're worried that they'll be worried that they have to stay and talk to you? Mm-hmm.

It all depends. If it was you, like someone I know well, I would do that. But if it's someone I don't know very well, it's the grey area of friends that I get stuck with. I don't know what to do. What about if it was Bill Murray? I'd just keep following him. What if you had a sign on your trolley saying, Bill, you can crash here?

I'd get in his trolley. So he accidentally bought me and then he... What about this? Now, this was in the news. Hang on, we've had... Very quickly, we've had some live questions for Luke McGregor. What are McGregor's tips on being suave and alluring? Is it style or just attitude?

Okay. All right, or just attitude? Okay. All right. Here's one. Okay. Can you, there's going to be a long pause. Yes. And then edit it. Yeah.

So whatever I say. Yeah. Sounds like I just said it. I'm going to leave this explanation of the pause. We're going to play this twice. Is it okay? Suave and alluring. Wear a tie that

looks great. Wear a tie that looks great. Okay. This definitely should have been in the draft folder. Oh, God. Oh, look, there's another one that says from a Twitter user, Cameron James, saying, at Luke McGregor, don't worry, I'm sure Dumb Dumb Club will be nice.

Carl Chandler is well known for his sensitivity. That's true. I felt safe. I always felt safe. You've read that out with a different inflection than how it was meant. Carl Chandler is well known for his sensitivity. I think how that was meant to be. Is it in remedies?

Is it in quotations? Well, I don't know Cameron James' Twitter policy, so he could have a no sarcasm policy. I've met him and it's no quotation marks in Twitter. I'll tell you this. Last week on last week's show, I did talk about how I did the fun run thing, the 10 kilometre thing. I did mention this bit. I had a bit of news today with it.

I did mention this, that I had quite a few people ask me, cause I was running with my girlfriend. We'd been training for a long time. And a lot of people asked me, were you going to run separately? Were you going to run together? And I was like, well, definitely we're going to run together because we've, we've trained together for like six months. You know, we've been running together all the time. And at the, at the start, my girlfriend wasn't very good at running and we've, uh, it was a lot of me coaching her along and stuff like that. So we've had this really. Every time you talk about this, it just makes it sound like you're some buff Adonis who's

like just the, the, like the, like the, like some golden symbol of athleticism. And she's just like a hopeless case. Like you're teaching her to walk again. It looked like, it looked like Fabio running with Danny DeVito all the time. Is that a wig that your girlfriend wears when I've seen her? No, she was Fabio. So a lot of people would ask if we were going to run together. Of course we're going to run together.

We've had this great positive experience. I think we've had a really good experience training together and we've both gotten a lot fitter and lost weight and stuff like that. So as if I'm going to get to the race and just go, see you toots and just burn off. See you at the finish line, Sheila. Maybe. Toots and Sheila in the same sentence. Yeah.

So we ran together, obviously, and we got 9.7K, you know, along and we get, we turn this corner. Yeah. We turn this corner. I checked my pedometer before I started this story we turn the corner and we can see the finish line and she was like, is that the finish line? and I'm like, yeah, because she doesn't have

great eyesight, which may explain why she's going out with me, but we got very close to the finish line and she went great and then took off put on the afterburners and took off on me. Wow.

And I was like, what? And then I got sort of behind this slower girl, and I couldn't get around her properly. And then there was another person on the other side, and my girlfriend's burning off towards the finish line. Like, this is not happening. Yes. Because they time you and everything. They send you the times, and you get put in the paper your exact time and everything. I'm like, no way.

She's like doing the Bradbury thing where everyone falls over and she just wins by default. So I'm stuck. I'm corralled. So I go. I literally, we're only like 50 meters to go before the line. So I just sort of jam in between these girls, clip one of the girls' heels. She nearly goes over. And I'm like, oh, sorry, but I've got to catch my girlfriend.

Took over to chest across the line to make sure I came equal with my girlfriend. Wow. Now, that was fine, right? Was that fine, bro? Sorry, that was fine. That's the story where you've beaten some women into submission. That was fine for me. So what happened was this week, just last night,

I got an email from the organisers of Fun Run or whatever. Oh, yes. Now, what's happened, you know, they give you the signs and whatever. They give you the number that you put on your chest. So you've got, you know, 8884 or whatever. And they use that to then check what your times are and take pictures of you on the course so that you can send you can you can buy pictures of yourself after the thing

so i've the one picture they took of me was me bumping these girls out of the way i'm the picture of me and not only that not only that I'm bumping these girls out of the way, but I've gone sideways to get in between them. So the one picture of me is me sideways with this ridiculous look on my face. Everyone's running. And there's these two girls looking furious at me while I'm running sideways with this look of, sorry. And they send it to you going, here you go. You can have this look of, sorry.

And they send it to you going, here you go. You can have this for only $40 or if you want it framed, $50. I'll buy it. Can I buy it? No. No? Let's put it up on the Facebook page. No.

I want to see it. How do I get it? How do I get in touch with them? You can't. Why not? Because I'm going to make sure it doesn't happen. Why don't you buy it? I know how to do it.

We'll do it later. Yeah? Do you know how to do it? That's so good. This is. Why don't you buy it? I know how to do it. We'll do it later. Yeah? Do you know how to do it? That's so good. This is going to happen. I hope you don't know how to do it. Oh, I want to buy it. And instead of having our little logo as the picture for this episode when people download it, it's just going to be that image.

I'm ready for my first retweet. That could be the new image for the show. It's you and then one of the girls' heads is me and the other one's McGregor. Very symbolic of what happens on this show. The girl's head is me and the other one's McGregor. Very symbolic of what happens on this show. When you go running with your girlfriend normally, like how far do you normally run?

We ran this morning and we ran six, six and a half K kilometers. And how often do you do it? We were running, before the big front run came up, we were running two to three times a week. That's good. When we went to, we just come back from Thailand, we ran every day. In Thailand? Yeah. Because we want to get fit for this race.

So now that the race is finished, we will probably ease it off a bit. We've run like twice this week. Yeah. That'll be probably it. I've started exercising. Oh, yeah. What do you do? What's your jam?

What's your jam? Well, I bought a Wii. Okay. With like the Wii Fit game? Yeah, I bought a Wii. Okay. With like the Wii Fit game? Yeah, I bought Wii Fit. Or just Super Mario Kart because that doesn't do anything. No, yes it does because I've tried, I do play Mario Kart and I think I burn off a lot of energy getting frustrated falling off Rainbow Road.

Oh man, Rainbow Road can go fuck itself. Can't it? Yeah. Like it's so, like it's not even on the same level. Like I just. It's so dangerous. Yeah. It is, but it's like, like you do all right at all the others.

Yeah, you're doing fine. You're coming first in the Grand Prix and then that, because it's the last track, that can just wipe you out. Yeah. Into last. It's like, why do you have to make this so much harder than all the other tracks? Like, it's just boring.

Nintendo, if you're listening. Shigeru Miyamoto, if you are listening. Head credit designer. I did buy a Wii Fit because, yeah, I don't exercise and it shows. And I thought, I just don't exercise because it's boring and I don't know. I just don't get it. But I thought the Wii Fit would be a good. Well, now that you've heard about a form of exercise where you can like shove other women out of the way.

Does that do anything for you? Is that appealing? Can you do that on Wii Fit? I'm going to. Well, you have to make sure other people are not standing around you when you do. Yeah. Wii Chandler. Yeah.

Oh, that'd be good. What a great game. What would be in the If you were a video game What would the challenges be? I reckon probably just to I reckon it would just It would probably be like a Microsoft Connect game

And it would sort of get your facial profile And then they'd have some sort of I guess algorithm or something That just takes the shit out of you I'd like I think you'd Doesn't even have to be a computer game I guess an algorithm or something that just takes the shit out of you. I'd like, I think it doesn't even have to be a computer game, but one of those boppy things with your face on it, and each time you box it, you go back and then you come out,

G'day, dickhead. That'd be great merch to get made. Yeah, there would be a lot of people that do want to punch me. Yeah, wow. My girlfriend would buy a couple. Yeah, I could make millions if merch to get made. Yeah, there would be a lot of people that do want to punch me. Yeah, wow. My girlfriend would buy a couple. Yeah, I could make millions if I get these made. Can I talk about... No. I always worry if I'm going to say something...

God, even now, I always worry it's going to be boring. You know, this is what I was going to talk about. I wanted to talk about... Sorry. You should have seen me. I was having dinner with four girls from work last night. Clang, clang, clang, clang. It turns out that if you just hang...

Are you sure it was workmates? It wasn't your mum? It was... They're four mums. Oh, God. They were... I was testing the theory of whether if you just hang around a girl long enough, you will eventually make out if you spent, anyway, it didn't work.

What I wanted to talk about was if you're at a party, right? Okay. And you're talking to a group of people. You're talking to one person. And you're out. You're done. That's all the conversation you had left. Yeah.

How do you leave them? And you can't go to the toilet. You can't say, I'm going to get a refill on my drink because your drink's full. Okay. How do you leave that conversation? So you've run out of conversation. You need to leave. You need an exit.

I've talked to you at a party. Yes. And I thought Tommy probably wants to go talk to other people. But I didn't, other than just sort of, what's that over there and run away. I didn't know how to leave. Why can't you go to the toilet? Well, I've already been to the toilet.

You just come back. You get a full drink. But you know that they can't see your liver or anything like that. Let's say, okay, so here's the scenario. You come back and you're just going, oh, that was a good toilet run. I won't need to go again for a while. To be honest.

I don't even want to talk to you now. Yeah, yeah. If you're saying things like that, I don't think a lot of people are getting stuck in a conversation with you. What do you do without, how do you leave? Double fisting works. I'm talking about it or attempting it on them. No, no, no. In America, that's what they call it.

Double fisting is you have a drink in each hand. Oh. So you always have two drinks. So when you get stuck in a conversation and you want to exit, you go, oh, sorry, I've got to go pass this to my friend. That's genius. Yeah, and if you get stuck in a conversation that you want to stay there, then it's perfect because you've got two drinks.

That's brilliant. I'm doing that forever. Go get two drinks right now. Or you could have two drinks and say to them, you are so boring, I need two drinks to listen to your shit. And then I reckon that would probably be the end. I'm so happy. I've got a part in that.

I'm going to be using that all night. As I get older, I've gotten more and more comfortable with just not even having an excuse. Just at the end just going, I'm just going to go and talk to someone else now. Not even feeling embarrassed about it. You're at a party. You're there to mingle. You're there to talk to people. I guess everyone's dealing with the same

thing. Yeah. As long as you're not just walking out mid them saying something. I hate it when people go, I've had this recently where someone just said to me, oh, this is really awkward because we don't have anything to talk about. So this is really awkward. And I'm like, it's not awkward at all. It's, you know what?

It's not even awkward to me that you've just said that because I don't care. Yeah. Idiots pointing out something being awkward always, like it, for me, that's what makes it awkward. Yeah. You know? Yeah. always like it for me that's what makes it awkward yeah you know yeah when we were yesterday uh no it was off barely and i remember i was going to go meet those girls at the

yes girls friends well we i hang on which day was this because there's so many times it ended by you saying i'm gonna go and meet multiple girls it's uh that you uh sorry how did how did it go with the girls i um i don't know when i was when you said i've got to go put those posters up and i'm going to walk down the street yep i felt i was going to send you a text because i said i might just get going so i'm going to go meet them yep i was going to send you a text because i felt bad that i didn't walk with you to put the posters up, even though you had two people with you. So you were just going to get a late night text. Hey, man.

Still mates. You know my posters policy. I need three people around me at all times. One of them has to have red hair. Yeah. I let you down. You really let me down. Geraldine, how about this?

Now, I know that we've got a very light policy on here for serious stuff and whatever, but I'm genuinely intrigued. I haven't really had a proper conversation with you about, at the start of the show, about your coming out. And, you know, I know that you did a whole show about it, but I don't want to hear about gear. Because you've always been a person that would say, like, oh, someone thought I was a lesbian and I'd be like, yeah, cool. Because, you know, it's very easy to believe anything that someone tells you because you go, okay, well, someone thought I was a lesbian and I'd be like, yeah, cool. Because, you know, it's very easy to believe anything that someone tells you because you go, okay, well, they've said it.

And they should know. So I completely went, yeah, fine. And then when you, when it came out that, when you came out, when it came out that you came out, I was genuinely, I was genuinely shocked. Because I'm like, but that means she lied to me. I lied to you and to myself, Cal. Yeah, right. I lied to myself for a long time. But yeah, no, I guess I always had a lot of people, but unless you, you've got to realize

it yourself before. And that's the thing. Like, it was like, I don't know. I'm, I wanted to be the one to decide whether I was gay or not. I wasn't going to come out just because someone else told me that I was gay. Yeah. So. But how does that work?

Does it, is it like, so you, you obviously still confused about it then? Is that why you, or you just weren't ready to talk to people or? No, confused and I don't, cause I actually came out when I was about 21. Right. And I went back in pretty soon after. How does that work? How do you... I really want to know how things work.

Yeah, I do. So you came out, but then you went back in. So how do you then say to people... How do you go back in? Do you say that when I kissed that girl, I thought that was a man? Or how do you... No in do you say that well when i kissed that girl i thought that was a man or how do you no no well i guess when i when i first came out like to myself i said oh okay i'm gay and i i told you know a few people but not a lot and i didn't make it public knowledge or anything like that so and i was only out for a very short time and i remember you know going to like a uh the

first time i went to a gay bar and I walked in and I felt like really judged. Like it was just weird. I just kind of felt all these people looking at me and thinking, oh, maybe I don't belong here and stuff. And, you know, I guess I thought that I had to change who I was. I thought, oh, you know, I should dress a different way. And now that I'm gay and I should be listening to this type of music and stuff. And then, so I just kind of went, oh, I just, I don't kind of fit into the category of being gay and all the stereotypes and stuff.

So I went, oh, okay, well, maybe I'm not. And then for the next 10 years, it was like, uh, you know, people would ask me and stuff and I was just always like, oh, why do I have to put a label on it and just come up with excuses and stuff. When you said you told a few people that you came out to a few people, what did you then say to the people when you went back in then? Oh, I just said, oh, listen, I think I'm, I'm probably not, not gay. Right. And that was it pretty much.

That's easy. Yeah. So. And, and, and then, but then 10 years later you went, nah. Right the first time. Sorry about that, guys. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah.

Well, I have a different set of friends now, so I didn't. Oh, really? You burnt them? Yeah. Yeah. So you didn't have to lie to them. You didn't have to lie to them. Yeah.

They had two. No, sorry. It's a very sensitive issue, I know. Quick, McGregor, go and give one of those drinks to someone over there We're just making fun of everything anyone says And then when it gets to this, everyone's like Oh no No, it's alright

But yeah, I guess You know, and Like during the ten years that I was in the closet, so to speak It's not like I was trying to hide it or anything. I just didn't realise kind of thing. I just was like, and also in my head I had this thing of like, oh, no, no, I came out, I tried it and clearly I'm not, you know. Was everyone really supportive?

When I came out, the second time or the first time? The final decision. The most recent. I guess you don't have to lock it in, but the most recent one. The reboot. Yeah, amazingly supportive. I wasn't.

No, I wasn't. No, I'm joking. Sorry. McGregor's got a horrendous homosexuality policy. Most of the support I got was from replies on Twitter, so I don't understand why. I'll send one now.

But, yeah, on the most part, yeah, it was a bit dicey coming out to mum and dad, but it's all good now. So the thing that I forgot, you know, mum and dad, they're conservative Catholics living in regional Australia. So, you know, they're a bit, but they're cool about it now. I mean, when I talk about it. I was thinking about this the other day, like, my parents are, like, super supportive of,

like, they could not be, like, you know, more laid back and more cool. And I kind of feel like it's almost a shame that I'm not gay. Like I'm, I feel like I'm wasting having understanding, support it. Like there's, there's a kid out there who's probably, you know, got a dad who's like, no son of mine is going to be a homosexual who could probably, you know, bet like my parents could be as homophobic as they want. It's not going to make a difference. Like they're never going to have to accept anything.

I feel like I should swap parents with someone who's, you know. I feel the same. I feel like I've got to get out of jail free card as well because my parents have never said anything to me like, oh, you should get a job, you should do this, you should do that. Or, you know, hey, shouldn't you be doing homework? Or anything through my whole life, they've just gone, oh, he knows what he's doing.

Like, oh, man, I could have had a sweet major fuck-up and asked for $10,000 and I probably could have got it. My parents are supportive, but every now and then they'll do weird things where, like, you know, when I told Dad that I got cast in an ad for the Commonwealth Bank, I said, oh, you know, I'm going to be doing these ads for the Commonwealth Bank and it might mean going to London and it's pretty exciting.

And Dad goes, yeah, the bank. You should see if you could get a job at a bank. That'd be good. I just told you I'm in an ad on television. I don't need to work at a bank. Why would I work at a bank? It's a bit of extra money. I'm like, yeah, but then I wouldn't be going to auditions.

Yeah, but that's a sweet end. Like, your dad's got a point. That'd be very easy to go into the Commonwealth Bank and go, hey, I'm on your ad. Yeah. That's. Go in wearing the C. Yeah. Yeah, just instead of having a CV,

just send them a YouTube link of the ad. Here I am. Here's how much I believe in your company. I'd like to be the boss. It's good having another job. It's good. What are you working at at the moment, Geraldine? I work in outside school hours care.

Oh, I don't know what that is. After school care., I don't know what that is. After school care. I still don't know what that is. It's all in the title. How does that work? After school care. After school, like, so kids. Yeah, look after kids after school.

Oh, okay. People whose parents are careful. What do you do, Carl? You never had that? I do this. I didn't do that. I used to go to after school care. Yeah.

I didn't It's a sweet job Right I lived in Maribor They just let us roam the streets For like three hours Go learn things guys See you back at three

No it's a good job Like there's Because I work in In Fitzroy In Atherton Gardens Which is where You know where the commission flats are Yeah So We get kids that You know Fitzroy in Atherton Gardens, which is where the commission flats are. Yeah.

So we get kids that, you know, they pretty much all live in the flats. So these are all, you know, refugee kids and kids from low socioeconomic background. So we get these kids in afterschool care, not because their parents are working necessarily, but because there's, you know, five of them living in a two bedroom flat and they just need some, parents need some time away from their kids and stuff. And also, you know, it's just good for them to interact with other kids and whatnot and have something to do after school rather than just roam around the grounds of the flats and stuff.

Like Chandler when he was a kid. Yeah. Hey, I turned out, well, not that great. You've got to be a positive influence so they don't grow up to run marathons and shove women out of the way. One of my fantasies is to go back. Here we go. Are we going to get the rest of the fantasies after this?

It's a really gross one. Is to have all of us, same knowledge we have now, but like be able to maybe just spend a week, um, in kid bodies and go back to school. I think it'd be so much fun. But we're all the, all, all, all us who, you know, comics remember, but we're all in the same school and we just get to just, it's like Groundhog Day for a week and we're at school. I think it'd be fucking awesome.

Yeah. I like when you, when you get drunk drunk because you're a very good drunk. Yes. And you're very chatty, but then you're very sleepy as well. So it was like one of the last times, oh, not one of the last times, but one I particularly remember was me and you drinking together and you just getting,

the first time I realized how bad you were at drinking. And it was one-on-one and you were just so drunk and you were just going, apropos of nothing, going, don't worry, you know, if I get a sitcom in America, I'll get you over there, and we'll all come over. You're alright. You're alright.

And then you literally fell asleep mid-sentence. I've never seen anyone do that before, and you fell asleep in the middle of a sentence. Well, Carl, I did get that sitcom, and you're all coming with me. I remember that night that you came to that party with two left shoes. Oh, yes. That amazing night.

Yes. It was really dark, and I was in a rush. And you didn't want to turn the light on, because, God, that would blow out your time by a good four hours. But that didn't even feel the same. It's a wonder you got to the party. You should have been going around in circles.

But I remember during that night, we were all sitting around the table talking and stuff, and I spent the majority of time looking at you because you'd just be sitting there with your eyes closed. And then every now and again... You're like a junkie.

It's really bad. It's like McGregor playing Christy Brown in my left shoes. Because the guy I live with now doesn't drink, so I'm hoping he sort of rubs off on me. That's a plan, anyway. And wears right-foot shoes as well.

I'll never do that. That two-left-shoes night, that was the great night where you met Declan Fay of the Sweetest Plum for the first time. And Declan, in classic Declan form, after he's known you for a good half hour, goes, hey, does anyone else here reckon that he looks a bit like Sick Boy from Trainspotting? And you've just gone off at him. Because it was just before that party.

Because one of the things you have to put up with is redheads. Everyone, if there's a character that's a redhead that's horrible, someone will at some point go, hey, you're just like that. What's the, like that guy from Daria? That guy with the, I don't know, anyone who has red hair and is a horrible character. Someone will compare you. Someone will go, you're just like that guy from Daria, that guy with the, I don't know, anyone who has red hair and is a horrible character, someone will compare you. Someone will go, you're exactly like that guy. And just before Declan had said that, because I was pretty drunk, you know, I had a character. And then this group of car of girls had gone past and, and yelled out at me.

Oh, look, it's it. They, they yelled out. Oh, it's a fucking wrangler. And,

and it, and I was really annoyed. No, I'm not. Oh, I am. What can you yell out? And then,

and then I got to the party and that was the first thing Declan said to me. And it's sort of, I just like, oh, and I just, and it was, yeah thing Declan said to me. And I was like, aw. And I went on a rant. I believe it was the rant was when I'm president of the world, you'll be the first one to go. I know. I think it was like you're taking a big risk, buddy, because I could become president of the world.

And then where will you be? You'll be in jail. Yeah. No popcorn for you. You'll be too busy being capital world. And then where will you be? You'll be in jail. Yeah. No popcorn for you. You'll be too busy being capital punished. And that is why you should be. Exactly. I like that under your reign, everyone in the world gets free popcorn,

except for the people who wronged you. Call me a ringer. It'll be Declan and that group of car girls. Well, this is what happened in Sydney. Similar thing. When we were doing the week of gigs at the comedy store before we did our live show, Dave Callan was on before the break and he has a joke about saying that you're a vegetarian but eat chicken is like saying I'm celibate but I still fuck orangas.

And we were saying you should come on after the break, because you were first on after the break, and say, I've had sex with Dave Callen. And then the next night, Dave Callen was on, he did his bit, there's a break, you come on, and before you've even gotten to the mic, someone goes, ranger, in the crowd. So your response is to just go up to the mic and go, I fucked Dave Callen.

But having said that, there was probably a good 40 minutes in between Dave's reference and your reference, so the whole crowd will have completely forgotten about it. And not everyone heard Ranga Ruse. No one knew the context. It wasn't worth

having sex with him at all. It was sort of like that weird thing where the MC will intro an act by saying, oh, he was on Rove, he was on this, just to explain how good he's going to be. Where you've come on and gone, I fucked Dave Callen, so I might have caught funny off him. Strap in, guys. I'm going to be maybe as good as him. Well, guys, that does bring us to the end of the Little Dumb Dumb Club for another week.

Okay, sure. Can you please do that? Can you please wear the sunglasses, make your hair blonde and wear a towel and welcome people in? Have a party with a sign at the front saying Bill Murray. Yes! Have a Bill Murray party. Everyone's got to come as a different Bill Murray character. I'd love it if no one came a Bill Murray party. Everyone's got to come as a different Bill Murray character. I'd love it if, like, no one came except Bill Murray.

And it was just me the whole night, me trying to explain to him that I'm a little loser and that I must have got the dates mixed up or something. Yeah, you've got two drinks in your hand trying to get away from him when there's no one else around. Guys, thank you very much for listening. You can find us on Facebook and Twitter.
