It's the worst idea of all time
Season 2 Hello and welcome to the worst idea of all time.
Season 2.
Hello and welcome to the worst idea of all time.
Beautiful.
Season 2, episode number 46.
Coming to you from the dark.
We are in pitch blank darkness now, folks.
Tim Vant and Guy Montgomery are coming to you from a singular location for the first time in a little while.
And it's the middle of the night
we decided to just fucking do this
Lights out, lights out
it's a slumber party, put your gym jams on
get in your sleeping bag, make some
s'mores, it's time for some
bedtime stories
Yeah, it's halfway between
dangerous and lovely
that's very much the
sleepover vibe, eh?
That's what's so cool about sleepovers.
They're exciting.
Yeah, I was.
You're with your mates, that's cool.
I was a classic fall asleep early kid at a sleepover.
I'm sure it doesn't surprise you.
Did you ever wet yourself at a sleepover?
Oh.
That was the worst.
No, I don't think I did.
Pretty good bladder control.
I don't think.
What?
I don't know if that's true, mate. I good bladder control. What? I don't know if that's true, mate.
I guess bladder control, I guess technically you're right.
You don't have a very strong bladder.
I've got a powerful bladder.
No.
Yeah, no.
Straight up and down.
No, that's not true.
My GP told me when I was 12 years old,
he said your bladder has the density of an over-inflated football.
That's bullshit, though, because you and I both
know that you piss all the time.
You're built like an athlete, mate. You're just
constantly...
Built like a horse. Over the left
leg of a horse. Yeah, you're like an athletic
horse. Look.
Constantly escaping being
eaten by hungry people.
Constantly. People don't farm horse to eat
No they don't really
They should really stop that saying then
Because it's a hell of a misnomer
There was a lot of outcry when it came out
That McDonald's and other places have been serving
Horse meat
I don't think that was McDonald's
No it wasn't
It was in the UK wasn't it a few years ago
Supermarket meat
It was fucking TV din, wasn't it? A few years ago. Supermarket meat.
They were fucking TV dinners.
That was the whole thing.
I was like, oh, really?
You're up on your, excuse the pun, high horse buying TV dinners and expecting not to get a fucking horse in it.
The thing is, you're being so selective, man.
Like, what's the difference between a horse and a sheep?
That's the thing.
You've got some horse in there.
Yeah.
I would expect radioactive waste to be coming out of the filler in those TV dinners.
We're Stunny of All Time is a podcast where myself and Guy watch the same movie every week for a year.
We did a whole season of Grown Ups 2 and Adam Sandler's Stinker.
And this year, we're in the closing stretch of Sex and the City 2
and
old time fans of the podcast
who aren't just dipping in for the first time will notice
the theme has changed thanks again to
Josh Peters because I feel like the
mood has changed for these last few
It's quite yeah it's sort of
solemn it almost felt nostalgic
I haven't heard the music like that
music playing at the start of a really coloured,
yeah, it's really coloured my experience.
But just in terms of this home stretch, man,
like, fuck, I am done.
Yeah, you really are.
I am done.
It's been a long run around the block this year, hasn't it?
Yeah, it's ebbs and flows on this process, you know?
It really is.
But I feel like we're just in a stage now where it's like,
fuck off.
Just the whole thing needs to die.
Just put a pin in the entire operation.
No, but that is when, you know, this is, um, this is like you're doing,
you've got the stitch.
This is like, you know, you're running in the big race and you get the stitch and you're
like, well, I'm not going to let the stitch stop me from finishing this big race.
You just got a little bit of the stitch.
Put your hands on your head and run for a bit, like slow down and run for a bit.
That's the opposite of what I do.
I'd always like grab the bit that hurt.
Nah, rookie, rookie mistake.
So what are you supposed to do?
Put your hands on your head.
What does that do?
Does it change your blood flow or something?
Changes your breathing, I guess.
Oh, that's true.
I actually never looked into the science of it.
Someone told it to me when I was impressionable.
What the fuck is Stitch anyway?
It's a biological kind of function of it.
What's the, you know, why do we, what's that about? It's like a, it's like biological Kind of function of it What's the You know Why do we What's that about
It's like a
It's like the
A bubble of
Air
Being like
Oi chill out
A bubble of air
I don't know
It feels like
It's a real weakness
In humans
A real Achilles heel
Cause running's the only thing
We've got Guy
As an animal
We don't have a good defence. We don't have
claws. We don't have great senses.
Everything's another sea beast.
No, we...
Middle distance running is the one thing that we're
awesome at. Yeah, that's true.
We're the best... As a defence
mechanism. We're we ourselves.
No,
I was saying we can run away for a long time.
But that is our defence mechanism.
We're we ourselves. Where are you getting that science brah
science brah is that that magazine you subscribe to pictures of those dudes in board shorts and poker necklaces yeah just holding up an abacus in a fucking periodic table
an abacus holding a monkey's hand to just allude to the concept of
evolution champ you guys got the wrong fucking primate you're reading science bruh ah geez
well i tell you what guy um we're here we're in the dark we're in the sleepover mode
what do you think of this movie?
To be your lawfully wedded partner for another eight go-arounds or so,
if I'm doing my math right.
Sex and the City 2?
It's just... I want you to propose vows to the film.
You have to start, I, Guy...
What is your middle name?
Alexander Halifax.
I fucking knew that, sorry.
I, Guy, Alexander Halifax I fucking knew that Sorry I Guy
Alexander
Halifax
Montgomery
I Guy
Alexander Halifax
Montgomery
Am I doing
With you guys
To the heart
Would like
To ask
You
No you're not proposing
You're at the fucking
We're there
We're at the wedding
Ah
Spouse
These are the spouse.
Ah.
I solemnly swear to do my best.
I'll do, honestly, I'll do my best.
You're difficult.
You can be difficult to be around.
I mean, at this stage, it's kind of just like you know we just
we can be in a room with each other and we can keep things
civil but
and I guess
knowing that there's a time gap
I'll try and improve on that with you
and obviously you
as a sort of non-sentient
non-responsive
you know vide videophile,
you will continue to do what you do.
And I respect that.
Let's have a kiss, baby, and we're married.
No one's toasting that, are they?
You're so guarded.
I wasn't that guarded.
You've got to lay it on the line, guy.
There's a line from the second season of House of Cards.
And Kevin Spacey's wife says to Kevin Spacey,
it's like the all is lost moment in the series right before it ends.
And he's falling out of favor with the prisoner.
And she says, seduce him.
Cut out your heart and give it
to him. That's what I was
looking for from those marriage vows and I did not
find it. You do your marriage vows
I
Timothy Andrew Batt
take you, Sex in the
City 2
to be my
partner through thick
and thin across the next eight watches.
I promise to give you my entire human attention as much as I can absolutely master in the moment.
I promise to be with you through good times and troubling times. I will be faithful to you.
good times and troubling times.
I will be faithful to you.
I shall solemnly swear to try super hard to not look at my phone.
From here till eight watches, amen.
Dude, I like mine better.
Yours were weird.
They came out like a prayer. That was uncomfortable uncomfortable you've made everyone at the ceremony very uncomfortable uh i'm wondering what's going on between you two
i knew what was what was going on when they came it's not as likely to this and then it does if
if anyone has any reason why these two should not marry speak now if we ever hold your peace. I do. Head it up.
I think this is a bad relationship.
Why? What part of it?
I just don't think you guys are good for each other.
I don't think you... Is it because I'm asking a movie to be my partner?
No, I'm talking about...
I'm not even talking about it as a movie.
I'm talking about you and Sex and the City 2.
No, actually, obviously, I want you to write out the relationship but you know that was a good little exercise
because when i was saying that i did feel like i was like this is i can you know it's a new it's
a new way of because it's difficult to see the forest from the trees or the trees from the forest
at this point um so it was a so it was a new angle I had on
seeing how
sex in the city 2 is impacting you
this is what you gotta do guy when you're watching something
50 times you gotta change your point
of entry
like a space shuttle it's like okay 23 degrees
all the astronauts
we'll try
a different one 22 degrees
alright guess what
I'm looking at a fireball
they didn't provide that one either
what are we going to do
are we going to cancel the space program
no
try more angles of re-entry
so that's what we're here to do today
try different angles of re-entry
see what works
what are some other angles
you took a note on your phone fuck it Try different angles of re-entry. See what works. What are some other angles?
You took a note on your phone.
Fuck it.
It's too far away and it's the dark.
I've actually just put it within arm's reach.
I can't feel it.
Oh, here we go.
Here's the phone.
I think it was something to do with the joke that I have been,
I still don't.
It's bright in the, oh, no, I've all my apps My power My phone's gone to extreme power
I'm so over it
It was um
That sandwich joke
Oh yeah
From
You take it
It was your thing
You say that you
Fucking cracked me up
Because this is something
That guy flagged very early on
Like perhaps in the single digit watches
And we just We went back and forth on it a lot
because you were like,
I just don't get that she's having a little sandwich joke
as a joke fundamentally.
I think we discussed this with James Acaster at length as well.
And it's when Miranda, sorry, Charlotte falls off the horse.
The camel.
She's in the desert.
She pulls all her clothes up to kind of get ready to get back on it
and inadvertently pulls her underwear and pants suit thingy up too high
and creates a camel toe for herself.
And then Miranda says, it looks like she's having, oh no, sorry, SJP says, honey, you've
got a real camel camel toe.
Righto, we get it.
And then Miranda says, it looks like she's having a little sand wedge.
Yeah.
There is the bone of contention, that last line, a little sand wedge.
I just don't understand why are we talking about sandwiches?
Yeah, I get it.
There's no, like, the second level of the joke has no application.
Because a joke is something that has two meanings.
Yeah.
It's pretty much a, yeah, okay.
It's like a...
Double entendre.
It's like she's a joke machine and just threw out the wrong,
you know, the context for the joke was not quite right.
And it made it through to the cutting room floor.
Hey, full disclosure, guys.
Guy and I, and this is, see me just a plug for the subreddit as well,
but we went back on the old TWIOAT subreddit
and found at the top at the moment
is an interview that Jon Stewart did
with Mattress Paykel King in 2010
when the movie was being released.
And those guys go fucking back, man.
Yeah, it's a very good interview, actually.
Well, kind of.
It's very good for Mattress.
Yeah.
It's nice. He's on the junket for sex in city too but it's not discussed at all yeah uh they play a
very long we thought we've been rickrolled because at the start of the interview they play down about
a minute and a half worth of footage from the movie which is the most terrifying yeah terrifying
experience but then he comes out and the the
footage doesn't get any laughs when it's being played down it's actually that exact scene we
were just talking about the lead up to the gag yeah this is the camel and the uh and then yeah
then my it might you know the mattress pikelet queen uh or king you know um you're on there
quite yeah you decide he comes out
and they do an interview
and he's funny
and they're like
old old friends
from early comedy days
he gave
he gave Jon Stewart
his first job in TV
was your interpretation
just based on that interview
because I
I guess I'll look this up
later maybe
do you reckon
Mattress used to do stand up
no he used to do improv
ah
it's groovy.
That's a very good word for improv.
Improv is very groovy.
It made me warm to Mattress.
Yeah, yeah.
Hold on, dude.
Pockets of energy.
They were riffing and scatting.
Sure were.
Squeaking and bopping.
They were doing a great job of it.
It was funny.
You know, they were squeaking and squawking.

It's the question this time.
There is a man A certain man
Who
It's like a country song
There is
It's a
It's the start of a
White stripe song
A certain man
He loves
Just drinking all his coffee
He goes to the cafe
Cafe And three sips because this coffee guy he
sure don't fuck around fuck around oh we love him oh we love him we follow him we will do whatever Whatever he tells He's a coffee guy
He's a freaky guy
He's got pockets full of sand and chips
He seasons his chips with sand
That's why he's got a gravelly voice
He sounds like Macy Gray
He's talking about how she tries
He's actually Macy Gray Is Macy Gray doing talking about how she tries. He's actually Mesa Gray.
It's Mesa Gray doing a, like for a reality show.
Ah.
She gets put on full prosthetics.
Yeah.
And went on the set of Sex and the City 2 as a Java drinking maniac.
A man who we've been interpreting as Sex and the City 2's coffee guy
is actually top 100's Macy Gray.
You're gonna...
I don't even know what century to start with.
2000? Yeah, it'll be
early noughties.
Travis, say goodbye.
It's a great song.
Great song. What was the movie
that it was featured prominently in?
The movie of Guy Montgomery's
life.
Oh, dude, you're a big old Macy Gray fan.
Just that track.
Oh, and also, there's just,
I've Committed Murder.
It was a great song.
How's that go?
I'm not going to do it justice at all.
Look it up.
Oh, now you're getting gunshot sitting on the mic?
Are you kidding me?
We've got like a thousand hours of us singing.
I'm so far.
Why would you choose now to get all bashful about it?
I just, you know, I want people to like the song
and I feel like I'm...
I've committed murder and I think I got away.
And then there's more lines, but I can't remember them.
There's also a great Jay Diller remix of I Tried.
I Try.
To say goodbye.
Did we get to the bottom of what movie?
It's fun, wasn't it?
No, we didn't.
It's just, it's Macy Gray doing a character piece
for a reality TV show.
Whoa, hold on.
You're chucking more components in there
and I'm really sorry if I just burped on the mic.
I'm not too worried about it.
Wait, so not only is it...
What have you got there, guy?
Tape measure.
You've got a retractable metallic tape measure.
I'm just measuring the length of this studio.
Okay.
Go for gold, mate.
I will.
I tell you what, I can still hear the bounce in here.
We need to get some...
I need to get some of that...
I'm sure people love...
People love...
You know what people love hearing about?
What do they love?
Is the way to improve audio
quality on the product they're listening to nothing spins a human being's wheels like
listening someone figure out how to fucking nail it hey hey isn't that right listener the
alternative is guy that i start filtering what comes out of my head and i refuse to do that
i'm right there with you pal you know what i'm saying that's not what a sleepover is about a sleepover is about staying up later than
you're meant to hearing secrets talking about crushes making big old you know pots of milo
yeah oh you guys don't have milo in the states nesquik no no it's different yeah what the fuck
do that it's drinking chocolate cocoa but you can have it cold it's crunchy yeah what the fuck do they drinking chocolate hot cocoa but you can have it cold
it's crunchy
Milo though
is Milo like more malty
yeah it must be
the Nesquik
Nesquik goes right
in the milk
but Milo stays crunchy
they did a good job
they came into New Zealand
they went
oh the mothers here
want to raise rugby players
so we can't call it
hot cocoa
because that's just
pure treat
we've got to make it
some sort of sport sideways fuck around product we'll call it milo and we'll have get more go from get
more go from milo doing tries and shit it's like nutrigrain man do you remember that fucking ad
that wepix had one time god it was a stormer came out when i was a kid and Weet-Bix just went boom here's how much sugar is in all
the fucking shit
that is in us
and it was like
blam
Cocoa Pops
blam
Frosty Flakes
blam
and it had like
a thing next to it
that was how much sugar it was
the last one
the top of the bill
was Nutri-Grain
and it was
it's a fucking
chocolate cake
I'm talking
Nutri-Grain
literally feeding your kid
cake for breakfast
buy some wheat bix
or
you will lose your
or
be wary
sanitarium
who own
wheat bix
and are a huge
breakfast
cereal company
here in
New Zealand and Australia
owned by the
Seventh Day Adventist church
they don't pay they don't pay fucking tax it's crazy stuff here in New Zealand and Australia, owned by the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Correct.
They don't pay fucking tax.
It's fucking outrageous.
It's crazy stuff.
The only thing that makes the most popular breakfast cereal in New Zealand,
and they don't pay a lick of income tax.
That is a fucking grift, man.
I'm not down with that.
Back to the film.
Your Shining Light I wrote wrote down But it's fine
Which is now kind of off limits
Because it's gone into a
I remember it
I got it
So when they are
When it's amazing how much
Food and clothes
Four butlers can fit into four Maybacks
It was amazing
You were amazing.
Charlotte, they served a plate of macaroons
when they arrived from the camel ride
and they get lunch.
Charlotte and Carrie sit next to one another
in one of their plush tents.
Different colours too, those macaroons.
Yeah, and a plate of macaroons is put down.
Macaroons became pretty popular, but 2010, that was pretty,
you know, that's one thing that hit from Sex and the City 2.
They called macaroons big time.
Yeah, they did.
It was an early strike, 2010.
Yeah, man.
At least in New Zealand.
I don't know what the macaroon industry is doing in America right now.
And for that, I apologise to any macaroon enthusiasts.
But yeah, she picks
a mac, so they get placed in front of them.
Charlotte picks a macaroon up,
looks at it,
then looks at
Carrie, goes
wow, then
mimes putting it in her mouth
and puts it back down on the
plate. Oh, that's great.
And I noticed it for the first time last week
and forgot to bring it up.
It's a wonderful little moment.
It's like, oh, wow, look at this.
We could eat these, but not now.
You're really diverging from the spirit
of the shining light again.
This isn't the first time I've pulled you up on this.
A shining light is not a time for you to recognise a continuity
error or an act of fucking up
it's a time when you take a breather
from shitting down the film
every time you
think that I'm, that's not an act
of shitting, like that
to me is a good character decision
it's very Charlotte
okay, I feel like you talked
your way out of this one but really good job,
but it's all out.
My shining light is kind of a broad one unfortunately this week but I just feel
like Runkle is the greatest acting talent of our generation.
There is an, as I said to Guy while we were watching this film today there isn't
a frame
where he hasn't made
the best decision
in the moment possible
I
agree
Runkle
is incredible
and I feel like
he's been
hamstrung by being
in this movie
because otherwise
you put this performance
in a different film
Oscar worthy
yeah he's
I'm not afraid of that.
He's not going to...
I'm playing with the tape measure a little too much now.
It's all right.
It's a good sound though, eh?
Yeah, it's satisfying.
I think, yeah, he does a good job
with limited opportunities in this movie.
I wouldn't say he's the greatest actor of our generation,
namely because you couldn't tell me...
Give me two people who are better than him.
No, the onus of proof is on you for your outlandish claim.
Give me two movies that Runkle has starred in.
Nah, I don't need to.
I'll tell you, his body of work in Californication,
from the limited amount of that series I've seen,
is flawless.
So he's not necessarily the greatest actor of our generation.
Hey, bro, do you remember a
little guy called james dean who people seem to consider this fucking monstrous talent despite
the fact that he was in what like six films total it's not about the quantity of shit you put out
it's the quality of what's out there of your work and runkle brings yeah the noise. Yeah, so I don't disagree that Runkle brings the noise.
All I'm challenging is that he doesn't, he's not the greatest actor of our generation.
He's just maybe the, he's got the lowest error rate.
But that's Oscar.
You don't get, there's no Oscar for having the lowest error rate.
Anna Paquin won an Oscar for The Piano.
That was the first movie she was ever in.
She is New Zealand's shining light.
She is New Zealand's shining light.
I wonder what Anna Paquin's doing right now.
Listening to this podcast.
Oh God, that would bring me so much joy.
Even if I found out she'd listened to five minutes of one episode,
I'd be like, yes.
Big Anna Paquin fan over here hey um what about we dust off that big old leather bound book sitting
in the corner makes me cough yeah dusty it's not good for your lungs but uh it's important
you say asthma or asthma i say asthma you're on you, because you're not a goober.
Asthma's, fuck, such a horrible way of saying it.
It's Mr. Big's big book of ideas.
Guy.
Tim.
Let's open it up.
Let me just wet my finger.
That is a horrible sound.
Thumb and through.
Thumb and through. Thumb and through.
Page, page, page, page, page, page, page.
A diagram of a woman upside down in a wheel made of wood.
What's it for?
No time to explore it.
Page, page, page, page, page, page, page. Oh, there is what appears to be spouting around a house, right?
But it's filled with birdhouses as well.
Some sort of self-sustaining ecosystem around a home.
No time to dwell on that.
It's a drawing of a hot air balloon
attached to another hot air balloon
attached to an entire small model village
of hot air balloons.
Okay, here's what's happened, guys.
Mr Big has been taken to the seaside by his mother
for the first time ever at age 58
she said
John
John Biglets
I hate it when you call me that mother
you've been hanging out in that
huge storied building of yours
for too long and I know how much you hate heights
colour blindness can be doing you no good in that job of yours for too long and i know how much you hate heights color blindness can be doing you
um no good in that job of yours playing with the stock market so we're going to the seaside and
god knows the vertigo of being 50 stories up when you're afraid of heights can't be very good for
you either absolutely so his mama takes him out of there um and they go to the seaside and John's wearing stripes.
Those ye olde striped kind of almost Jim Jam looking.
Yeah.
Singlet and short shorts.
It's a onesie.
Yeah.
And it's horizontal stripe.
It is.
You got it.
He looks like the human equivalent of a milk jug.
Like a really attractive milk jug in the fridge nice and he's there with his
mama and he sees a tugboat for the first time and he's like what an incredible concept this tiny
little thing that has all this power he's he's like he's 58 years old mind you so the fact that
he hasn't seen a tugboat before
is mildly comical.
What was that light that came in the room?
That was the great idea light.
It's when you have a great idea
and the neighbours want you to keep going.
That scared the shit out of me.
Are you being robbed?
No, you're not being robbed.
Okay, cool.
That's funny because you thought
the worst thing that would happen
would be being robbed and I just thought that the police were going to knock on the door and be like what's
going on here you boy you boys aren't podcasting are you you know it's after podcasting hours
yeah in new zealand we've got this crazy law on the books that you're not allowed to podcast after
11 p.m it is fucked got a couple of renegades on the mic though, so. Mr. Big takes this idea of a tugboat
and transfers it to a bigger scale
and he's like,
what if you could get something
that is comparatively as big as a tugboat
if you compare it to a thing?
It's like, oh my God.
A poster just fell off the wall in the studio.
There is a ghost here.
It's very scary. this is quintessential sleep
over um they aren't they aren't supernatural beings at quintessential sleepovers explain
that timing then to me guy coincidence almost definitely absolutely is um so what he says
doing is cocking up in his in his brain's like, what could move a whole village?
And he's like, I know, a hot air balloon.
And so he tries it and it doesn't work.
And he's like, all right, I've got it.
A hot air balloon attached to another hot air balloon.
We'll double the hot air balloons involved.
Twice the power.
What we've walked in on is him drawing a diagram of the same failed concept but doubling
up the hot air balloons with some sort of belief that two will really change the game um the logic
spoiler alert two hot air balloons does not move a village only a professional public speaker can move a village.
Yeah, well, yeah, what you're saying is...
Oh, God.
The poster just finished its descent,
but it's on the floor now.
Can't go any further.
What you're saying is philosophically sound,
but I think that, for me,
if I'm trying to lift a village with one hot air balloon
and it doesn't work,
the next place my mind immediately goes to is put another hot air balloon in the mix.
Yeah, I know, and that's what we've walked in on.
Oh, Mr Bigto, and he's scribbling down that idea, he's doing diagrams of it.
He's trying to figure out the physics of moving a village using a hot air balloon.
The reason that he's so motivated to move an entire village is buried in a conspiracy theory that he deeply believes in
but is afraid to acknowledge to his loved ones
for fear of sounding crazy.
But he believes that there is a war that is waging
in the sewers and the side streets of New York City
that a lot of people are either choosing to be ignorant of
or unaware of.
city that a lot of people are either choosing to be ignorant of or unaware of, but there is a battle brewing between the so-called, his name is only whispered in hushed tones,
but the rat king, Brady, and his legion of hench rats. Hench rats and trench rats
he's got them separated into two streams
the hench rats are the ones that do all the
duty work and the trench rats
are kind of like the commissioned officers
that's right
there's a hierarchy
anyway and a
marauding sort of
almost it's not a cowboy
in the western American sense but certainly a cowboy ining sort of almost, it's not a cowboy in the Western American sense,
but certainly a cowboy in the sort of lonely sort of, you know,
beyond the word lonely, I can't think of how to describe Dick Bop.
David Bowie sense, you know.
A David Bowie sort of cowboy.
His level of genius is so great that he feels isolated from the rest of humanity
just like David Bowie does.
Is that how David Bowie feels?
I can only imagine, yes.
He's just so fucking
good that it's like I can't even relate
to these people anymore. It's like Dr. Manhattan.
Don't know.
He
basically just becomes so powerful
that he just goes to Mars to chill out and have a think basically just becomes so powerful that he just goes to mars to chill out and have
a think and just becomes so infinitely powerful he's like god i can't even be bothered with this
human shit fuck it that's where bowie's headed and to a slightly lesser extent
dick bot is yeah i think on the scale,
Dick Bott is approaching David Bowie.
He's not there yet, but he'll get there one day.
You better believe it.
When future generations look back on influence
across all manner of genres of music and style,
it'll go one, David Bowie,
two, Freddie Mercury, three, Dick Bott. and style it'll go one david bowie two freddie mercury yeah three dick bot yeah man it's gonna
be a big day big day when he composes his first hit um listen i don't know what's left for us here
because i know we're running out of time this way lies madness um i would like to say the
following things numero uno to anyone who's bought something from our store one million thank yous
can't say thank you enough count them it's so awesome it's and it's it's bonkers to think that
there's people rocking around with this stupid shit we thought of that is now a physical item.
An artefact.
Second of all, we're coming to New York,
which we announced last episode.
We're going to be doing a show at a theatre yet to be announced
on the 3rd of March, so mark that out in your calendar
if you're in NYC.
Or if you're near NYC. We know what we should do? Or if you're near NYC.
We should start an event on Facebook for this,
and then we can get an idea of how many people might be coming
because they can RSVP on the thingy on the Facebook.
That is a savvy idea.
Savvier yet would probably be to just, you know.
Stop talking about it and do it.
That's right.
But you live and you learn, don't you?
What is the other thing?
We're all learning all the time.
Oi, are we going to do a stand-up show over there or not?
Yeah, we are.
Sweet.
Obviously, that is yet to be arranged also.
Cool.
I've already done something with this tape.
I've sort of accidentally locked this tape measure against the cable.
You've just got to shift the lever.
Oh, no, no.
It's bigger.
The problem's bigger than that, mate.
Oh, really?
Check it out.
That's right.
We'll do this afterwards.
So, look, that's all happening.
And I guess, good on yous.
Good on you.
We're only eight away, guys.
And we've got, hopefully, is it the next episode we're doing that thing that we discussed?
Mm-hmm.
That's going to be next episode, eh?
Having a guest?
Yeah.
Yes.
Oh, two.
No, one guest.
Oh, okay, that's the next one.
Okay, cool.
We've got a guest who you may not have heard of before ever
in the next episode who I, like, am real excited to get that person on.
You might have heard of them.
Oh, should we just announce it
yeah sure
why not
see ya
see ya there
and then we've got this other cool idea
which we'll do in a couple of episodes
if we remember
cause you know it's us
so bye
you heard it what was that Because, you know, it's us. So, bye.
You heard it.
What was that?
Ah, it's nothing.
What was it?
No, it's nothing.
It was a kiss.
But why?
Because a kiss is always a gift.
It's the worst idea of all time.
It's the worst idea of all time. It's the worst idea of all time. Season 2.
