Starting point is 00:00:00 Well it's the friend zone with Tim and Guy. It's the friend zone we're gonna have a good time. It's the friend zone with Tim and Guy because making friends is the best idea of all time. Friend zone. Welcome to friend zone 104. Can you even believe it Guy Montgomery? We made itzone 104. Can you even believe it, Guy Montgomery? We made it to 104. I know. A lot of people say 100's the milestone, but Tim and I know better. We've always said if you get to 104, you're doing something.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Not right, not good, not well, but you're doing something. What are you going to say? That is the tag of this podcast. If you can't tell, Guy and I are talking over each other slightly because we're apart. Excited. We finish each other's sandwiches. Excited.
Starting point is 00:00:57 How many things have we recorded, like podcast things have we recorded and put out? I'm trying to do the math. So it's like over 100 friend zones now. Each season's got probably on average about... Each season better than the last. Tim, I'll tell you the answer to that question. We've recorded...
Starting point is 00:01:16 Times four plus 100. And then some other stuff like Overlooked and Undercooked. How many of those do you reckon we've done? We've done 16 that are out in the world. 16 of those. We have actually got another exciting spin-off of Overlooked and Undercooked waiting in the wings. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Absolutely. What are we looking at, buddy? Well, like, I don't know. This is very rough, but it's somewhere in the region of 330. North of that. It's north of that. We should figure out when 420 is and make a big deal of it because we are children.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yes. 320 is great. That's one for every day of the year. Minus, give or take, 100 days. 100? Guy, how are you? Yeah, look, I'm all mate i'm uh i'm actually down at my folks place in uh arrow town new zealand i am enjoying the freedoms afforded to we new zealanders after the second lockdown that was taking place in auckland recharging my batteries can you imagine this i've
Starting point is 00:02:23 done so many outdoor activities i've been going for some big runs I've spent a day skiing up a mountain you put a couple of fucking planks on your feet and you just roll down a hill amazing I've even entertained my father insofar as I went and played golf with him how was that?
Starting point is 00:02:42 how'd you do? I was okay the challenge is not really the golf it's more like keeping a healthy mental headspace throughout the experience of playing and he's difficult uh outside because your papa you're walking around true true but it is an immensely frustrating sport and one that i have no reason to expect to be good at but still demand of myself that i'm good at and he um cannot help himself here's a man who when he taught me how to do maths he would say no you do it like this and then take the the homework and solve the equation and then give it back to me and say how can you not see
Starting point is 00:03:19 this and so with golf he's sort of very helpfully i think in his own mind helpfully offers a lot of advice uh and it's like it's just too much data sometimes anyway i've been for a big bike ride with my sister i am just i'm really um i feel like i'm coming back to earth i've i've said it on the podcast i've said it to you and i I'm sure a lot of people around the world listening along have had a similar experience. I have found this to be a mentally exhausting and challenging year. And so it feels good to have even one hand back on the trophy of normalcy. It's a relief. How are you doing, buddy?
Starting point is 00:04:02 I'm doing just fine. Surrounded by junk. Exactly where I want to be in my studio i've got a can of solvents sitting on the table waiting for me to do some uh sound paneling in here what else we got we got a little mirror that i stole out of the bathroom i'm playing trumpet guy which i'm not sure if i've brought up on the uh the friend zone you're playing quite a lot of trumpet um i'm not i'm not going very well at it but i am enjoying the challenge of learning that is healthy the hardest thing about like
Starting point is 00:04:32 you know when you're when you're younger you can turn your hand to anything and you've got the time and like sort of the it's so it's socially expected that you're not good at it and it's also socially acceptable that you'll battle through that. Like the hardest thing about being adult and picking up new habits is living with yourself, being not good at them. Like it is hard to cultivate that self-discipline and patience. It's so good for you though.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Exactly. It is awesome. It's just, it's just the practice of it. It's just about grabbing something that you cannot do and going, I'm going to just keep bashing my head against this a little bit until things change. Because like, speaking of the snow thing,
Starting point is 00:05:14 I went snowboarding for the first time in my damn life a couple months ago. That's hard yakka. Everyone told me not to do it. They were like, Tim, you've got one day on the mountain. It would be a stupid idea to pursue snowboarding. That's what you do if you've got like a week so that you can actually you know learn yeah use it you want to go skiing because it's a little the learning curve isn't as steep and i said to those people snowboarding looks kind of fun and i'm an idiot so i did that and uh it was fucking
Starting point is 00:05:41 hard but i got there in the end if you had if you had your time over would you go snowboarding again yeah definitely yeah big time i don't think i'll ever go again it's like jumping out of an airplane i went skydiving once i will never repeat that activity have you been skydiving yeah i don't know that about you yeah yeah a uh my ex-girlfriend rachel bought it for my birthday it's very cool present and um very unexpected and i remember it so vividly i was like real excited about it you know it was months away um looking forward to it looking forward to it looking forward to it day comes looking forward to it driving out fucking excited get there get the briefing all good get the harness on fuck this is exciting and then got on the plane and i was like oh
Starting point is 00:06:29 fucking hell oh no no no no no and then we're going up in the air and the planes are i don't like tiny planes we're going up in the air in one of the little planes and you're just kind of like from memory you're kind of perched on like a beam in the middle. There's about 10 of you there with your instructor strapped to you. And it was just like, I was totally fine because I hadn't really put myself mentally to the point of where you need to jump out of the plane
Starting point is 00:07:00 until I was on the plane and in the sky, which is probably the way to do it. Fun and something I will never repeat. I have never been more scared in my life. I love that. I want to do that. You should. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:14 I've been bungee jumping. Have you done that? I've never been bungee jumping, no. I keep hearing the risk of it is probably overblown, but I have heard that you can detach your retinas. Bungee jumping? Yeah. Yeah, and you can get hit by a car
Starting point is 00:07:31 when you step outside of your house. Yes, legend. Yes. I am a legend. Jackson writes, Kia ora, Guy Halifax Alexander, The Flash, Chadwick, Bloomington Montgomery, Journey the Third, and Tim.
Starting point is 00:07:43 I'm writing to you boys in the hopes of... Got him. I think he got me. And then he also got you a little bit. It gets even better. The hopes of making the cut for the 100th Friend Zone. Discommunicate data, June 26. Well, the writer will be pleased to hear
Starting point is 00:08:04 that this is in fact a more significant milestone to us. So a sincere congratulations on that. I'd like to say I've been a long-time listener of the podcast, but I couldn't lie to you good bloody boys. I've been a fan of both of you for a few years after watching you live at an impressionable age and having seen some of your stand-up shows. I always felt like jumping on board to a podcast
Starting point is 00:08:24 would be such a big commitment, especially when I saw how many seasons you boys had done. Whoa. Whoa! Bloody top Kiwi blokes. And YouTube, we're damn fools for not picking up your pilot. That was some of the greatest television I've ever seen. On par with shows like Nathan For You. I'm touched. I finished writing my first feature in lockdown and started another one with a role for each of you in either film respectively. I'm sorry to say I'm not a Patreon supporter,
Starting point is 00:09:21 but I just copped a t-shirt and we'll be seeing you both perform stand-up in the mighty capital city of Wellington next month. It didn't happen. June, July. Oh, no, it did. Maybe independently. I did a show with Rose, and I think you went down and hosted a show. I think it got cancelled.
Starting point is 00:09:39 My one. Sorry for the long one, boys. Live every moment, love every day. Please bro me, even though you don't know me. Jackson. Oh yeah no i know jackson i did meet this guy say my name and please call me a real piece of shit jackson you ever loving piece of shit nice fuck him up bro um i think i met jackson in auckland though i'm getting i love that i love i love cats being an entry point to someone who says yes you know like it's it is a it's a fantastic distillation of what you're you're really
Starting point is 00:10:09 strapping in for the full immersive experience of how do you feel about this guy because i i feel like this is a good marrying of what we were talking about before we've got hundreds of episodes of the podcast that looks i wouldn't want to engage with that if i saw that if i knocked on the door it's like hi who's home and they were like 350 episodes I'd be like wrong house I'm so sorry I'm off down the street do you like that that it creates a bit of exclusivity or do you hate that that it's limited I hate I hate that like as someone who's mentally tries to be organized and you know like just in my own head I want everything to be in the corresponding you know manila folder in the corresponding cabin cabinetry or whatever like i find it very unwieldy to think
Starting point is 00:10:52 of 350 episodes spanning multiple seasons and mini projects and it's like it's very difficult to download and listen to like you know ui is everything and so i find that challenging but it does make the achievement more commendable especially if you're entering it at this point from the back end and being like i can go back to the beginning i can organize this yeah um i mean i admire i love it but yeah it is part of the charm and appeal i think of putting out mini projects is like it does give people an opportunity to to engage with the entirety you know like if you're a completionist to engage with the entirety of a project in a way that is not like prohibitively time consuming
Starting point is 00:11:31 but i mean you know it is what it is if people want to listen to it they can is two kiwi battlers watching uh over and over again uh this one's from the 16th of August 2020, Tim. So, aka two months ahead of you. So, during lockdown, I have no idea, but I remember the Vice article about your podcast and forwarded to someone. I'd look on Spotify and found it. And in the past two weeks, I live alone,
Starting point is 00:11:59 I've got up to episode 38. At a party tonight, we took it in turns for the Orcs and I requested the REO Speedwagon song. I realized I'd listened to a 30-second snippet 76 times in the past two weeks, but never the full song. The chorus makes me extremely happy. Also, I think maybe episode 36-ish, someone said they started thinking in a New Zealand accent. That's been happening for about a week and a half already. Well done, guys.
Starting point is 00:12:24 I'm forcing my new... This sounds guys. I'm forcing my new... This sounds dangerous. I'm forcing my new girlfriend of two months. I just told I loved to listen to an episode tomorrow morning. Gonna be great,
Starting point is 00:12:34 I hope, from David. We have got to check in with how that went for our boy, David. David, we demand an update and we demand to anyone else watching that you do not endanger
Starting point is 00:12:44 your relationship by doing that. Podcasts are not worth throwing. I mean, I don't know about the relationships people have to podcast, but it's not worth jeopardizing new love for. Although new love is like so, I guess all love is forgiving, but new love is like, you know, you run towards everything. Two months? We've been podcasting for six years. This is significant. boys before love what rhymes
Starting point is 00:13:08 with love that could mean podcast glove glove before love okay can i tell you this this might be this is i don't know if there's anything i actually wrote this as a joke in an animated show idea i had but uh it's someone in a car they're getting out of their car and they go to put like their phone in the glove box and they open up the glove box and just like hundreds of different gloves come pouring out of the box i like that it only occurred to me like two years ago that it's called a glove box because you put driving gloves in them back in the day. I know! I never, like, thought about it. That's so crazy. Hey, do you remember Cody Forks, who does very good art for us?
Starting point is 00:13:53 Yeah, he does really good. He did that fantastic TWIOAT sort of Easter egg-laden three-season retrospective poster. You're a good memory. Hello, Tim and Guy. in a three-season retrospective poster. You're a good memory. Hello, Tim and Guy. I'm writing this almost an hour into the broadcast of the 100th Friend Zone. Let's see if you boys catch up to this one. Just wanted to thank you good boys
Starting point is 00:14:14 for all the laughs over the years. Just to share my most memorable podcast experience, you reached out to me at the end of season four about using some fan art of mine as a poster on the US tour. It was truly humbling and inspired me to book some last minute tickets to fly clear across the continent to see the final show with matt goarley in los angeles california quite a feat to achieve three weeks before the show date when as it turns out my passport was
Starting point is 00:14:40 expired and my birth certificate nowhere to be found regardless i made it and dragged along a friend who had never even listened to the potty before one of the best trips of my life and a hilarious show again thank you fellas very much for the good laughs and your terrible choices from cody i have two things to say about that or three things first of all cody thank you i love you i remember the art you are an absolute champion I can't believe the commitment you showed. Secondly, I have still, and I've mentioned this on the podcast before, a disposable camera of that trip sitting in my desk drawer waiting to be developed.
Starting point is 00:15:14 That is a treasure trove. I'm so excited. I actually got a different roll of disposable film processed not long before the second lockdown in Auckland. So I'm looking forward to taking that to the same place getting them printed you get the digital on file and the hard copy it's going to be great fuck yeah third of all that show which was at nerd which was at nerd melt a now defunct venue i was so fucking bashed for i remember being like having a few sort of powerful ipas and then going to pick up
Starting point is 00:15:46 some more maybe like one beer or something go to pick up more beers from a liquor store afterwards sort of done the setup and we knew the venue and we're familiar and someone had either given us or we'd bought some incredibly powerful weed and i remember like having one long drag on the way there and coming back and just my eyes were rolling all around inside of my head. I remember even though Matt was a guest on the podcast and it was the last episode of the season, in my mind's eye, all I had to do was be a disruptor. And I'm like, it's such a stupid thing to think and do.
Starting point is 00:16:20 But I just have such, not vivid memories of the actual experience, but, you know, like sort of me coming in and out of contributing. You were messy. Yeah, messy is the word. It was a messy show. I remember that one being fucking hectic. It was a really chaotic vibe in the room. It falls into that classic live podcast experience of being phenomenal in the room
Starting point is 00:16:40 because it's electric in there and then awful to listen back to. Yeah, I really, I remember that show quite vividly, in the room because it's electric in there and then awful to listen back to yeah i i really i remember that show quite vividly not sort of all the content of what was talked about but just the way i felt and i was like man i don't know if this one was anything i think it was but i always do i the thing is like the beauty of the premise is that whatever state we arrive at the episode for totally is permissible but when the people have flown from the east coast to come to california to see us you want to put on a show no you do but you don't want to you don't want to change the trajectory of the art oh no no fuck you it's my turn oh Oh, sorry, it is too. Big fun.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Sorry for swearing. August 19, 2020. Hello, friends. Lep to my key... Happy birthday. Lep to my keyboard upon hearing Tim's explanation of anamorphic lenses. Emmanuel Ep 2. Fun little bit of historical pretext. The optical technology was originally developed as a tool to allow tank gunners a wider field of view through a periscope. Whoa. bokeh out of focus highlights that the squeezing effect creates hopefully this little nugget of
Starting point is 00:18:05 information was of interest to you good boys loving the fresh content stay groovy lads and that is from ben ben thank you that rules nose is shit i love that history i like it when things that were weapons becomes things that aren't weapons this is my favorite i like it when things that were weapons become things that aren't weapons. That's my favourite. I like it when things that weren't weapons become weapons. We're different in that way, aren't we, Guy? Yeah. I've got a long one, so why don't you do a couple?
Starting point is 00:18:35 Because I just had a long one too. Okay. At your insistence. August 21, 2020. Hey Tim and Guy. I was out enjoying a socially distanced drink with a friend in London when we
Starting point is 00:18:45 bumped into a work colleague of hers from Riveria New Zealand she was describing her experience of being in Auckland for lockdown and I then told her that I had a micro insight to her experience through the Frosty Fellas I found myself weirdly knowledgeable when hearing about areas and locations that I'd never been to and had to explain that it was through listening to yourselves for so many years the idea that someone in London would have been listening to two kiwis for this time certainly made her chuckle she asked who you were and upon revealing your names she said oh yeah i've heard of guy sorry tim she went on to explain how you were one of the scenesters the trendy cool kids i can only. This in turn made me chuckle.
Starting point is 00:19:27 In one tangent of conversation, she said, I bet one of them has lived in one of the leakies, whatever that means. I have no idea. Please explain. Some kind of hipster apartments? After lengthy describing defending, she wasn't actually put off the potty. In fact, I think I may have increased your homegrown quota by one. Keep up the good work. Say my name harry from brighton g'day harry i don't know what the leakies are specifically but they may be like a central city apartment or it could just be any of our houses yeah we had a specific scandal here we can't build houses in new zealand it's a it's we do a lot of things good we can play rugby um we
Starting point is 00:20:05 can cook a snag on a barbie but one thing we can't do is build houses that repel water very well yeah it's become a bit of an issue over the years a never-ending crisis very damp very damp place because a leak sounds so minor yeah but it's really not um cassidy writes hey timbo and guy guy i have been an on and off listener of the pod since the first season unfortunately i've not been able to hashtag pay the boys as my journey through the hallowed halls of higher education has taken some let's call them awkward twists and turns i'm a journalist in canada living in the northern part of my province meaning i've been able to dive feet first into the pod it's an eight to nine hour drive back to my hometown and you two make that
Starting point is 00:20:55 journey a breeze 20 episodes of the pod and i'm good for the journey there and back fuck me 20 20 episodes of us i can't i yeah it's i just think about it though like shotgunning it it it makes sense yeah you should do it guy you never have listened to the podcast yeah i'm not gonna associate myself with that clap trap i'm working to get a raise so i can join the patreon and unlock the treasure trove of content behind the paywall which is exactly why you get a raise i respect and i respect and admire i can only imagine what great stuff will be revealed once i unlock that wall now i'm gonna just hit pause on the email to be honest and correct me if i'm wrong guy there's like there's video content on there which is mainly like just some some some video records of us doing the friend
Starting point is 00:21:45 zones but i think like periodically i'll use not all but a lot of the patreon content to fill in some gaps later if we're going through a tricky time you i yeah upon the first new zealand lockdown the the floodgates were open from the patreon pals in terms of the yeah yeah but we we there is yeah there is now a new podcast called uh calionia where we're going to um it's a fundraiser for jeff bezos so we can murder him wow it's at this point it's a fundraiser for Jeff Bezos. And can I say, because of us or not because of us, currently, it's going very well. Jeff Bezos is certainly raising some funds. I'm working to get a raise.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Oh, yeah, sorry. I read that already. Anyways, I wanted to tell you how recent efforts to pay the boys in my own way were thwarted. Every year at my paper, we publish it. I'm going to pause it again if you're in journalism don't pay us anything that is such an important job that is currently in my experience paid so poorly you're golden um we publish a tourism guide for our area
Starting point is 00:23:01 it goes out to business and bigger centers in my province this year i wrote a piece about how enjoyable and scenic the drive to canada's north can be in it i gave out podcast recommendations and dropped one for you boys game changer unfortunately my editor cut out that part i assume because when he asked me for podcast recommendations i referenced you boys and he has not asked me for any recommendations since i guess not everyone is cut for listening to the project in a similar vein uh sorry cut out for listening to the project in a similar vein to watching the same movie every week for a year just isn't for everyone either i'd invite you boys to the canadian wilderness but by the time this reaches you who knows where i'll be at the media production world is a harsh mistress right now. Feel free to say my name or don't.
Starting point is 00:23:45 I'm not your mother. Cassidy. I'm a man, by the way. P.S. If you're ever thinking about taking a long look at straight-to-sci-fi channel Monster Horror Flicks, I can give you a few to start out with. It's a genre I genuinely love,
Starting point is 00:24:03 but has led me to watch what i can confidently say is the worst movie in existence or to have another film in the genre um somehow pass it i'd have to know what that movie is how do you feel about being associated with bad cinema um like how do you mean well like if someone watches a bad movie and they know that we exist or someone sort of comes up against a movie that is objectionable or bad i love it for the same reason that i still have my twitter handle as tim quote eat my piss bat because it means that I can never ever get too big for my boots it is a fantastic crushing glass ceiling which I could never escape and I like that this eat my pisses is your glass ceiling well it's like whenever I'm tweeting, because I often tweet somewhat earnest political musings,
Starting point is 00:25:05 and it's just such a good tonic for that to kind of cut through it and be like, well, I can't be taken too seriously because my name is Tim Eat My Piss Bat. And eat your piss I shall. How do you feel about it? I mean, yeah, I feel okay. I'm just like, people, I very rarely do I get recommended things that I will enjoy. And I just find that interesting. It's like the traditional role of a recommendation is, oh, this.
Starting point is 00:25:39 But all of the recommendations I receive or solicited are usually like, oh, man, this is awful. You've got to see this this it's fucking terrible and i just feel oddly about it fair enough september 6 2020 tim and all all those listening this is the last piece of correspondence on the worst idea of all time facebook page certainly not the email though not the email but with respect to facebook we've cleared the decks i would love that not to be the case so if you want to message us on the facebook it's a go-to source for these friend zones where the worst idea of all time send a message this one reads as follows hi timbo and guy i recently realized that i confused ste Buscemi and Jeff Goldblum, and I'm sincerely rattled.
Starting point is 00:26:30 I might need to re-listen to season one. I also had the horrifying realization that I may have said the sentence, Steve Buscemi is my style icon, to another human being. That rules. I meant Jeff Goldblum. Well, thanks for the podcast and that's all man steve buscemi can be your style icon i'm gonna google image him see what he's wearing by all accounts i i reckon the steve buscemi guys uh he's a good egg yeah yeah same. Like, modest. He's in some photo shoots where he's wearing a really cool cream white suit.
Starting point is 00:27:13 I love that. He knows what's good. Oh, I need another bloody Java. Go ahead. From a friend of ours on Twitter, but it's been emailed. Dear friendzone, let me be the first to congratulate you on arriving here in the present. In this email dated
Starting point is 00:27:32 30th of June. You chose the worst fucking time to get here, but welcome nonetheless. Let me show you around. Give you a bit of a tour, if you will. If you were looking for the pandemic, you will find it just about anywhere you look large concentrations of it are in the america right now murder wasps yeah we gave that shit
Starting point is 00:27:54 a hard pass no more of them if it is too bright in here for your liking you will find the switch for the sahara dust cloud right over there it It is a bit fucked though. You can only ever make it darker. Don't you worry if you're getting a bit chilly. You can either put on one of those mega rompers or just wait for a bit because we still haven't changed, we still haven't addressed climate change. So it is only getting hotter.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Anyways, it is great to have you here in the present. Make yourself at home, sipping some milk, the Brooks. Oh, brooks i should have known it was you that opener really still tickles me i almost couldn't listen to half of that message because i was just enjoying that if you're looking for the pandemic you'll find it pretty much everywhere you look oh man ain't that the truth huh i don't want to end on that one actually I love the Brooks but that was a bit of a dumbass I'm going to forward you an email to read ah to my email
Starting point is 00:28:50 yup let me send that right away I'll open my email it hath been sent I don't know if they want their name read but I'll also address the fact that the Brooks accompanied his message with a 10 us dollar donation so thank you very much rock on tim rock on guy fuck blaze pizza drink milk this guy loves
Starting point is 00:29:12 drinking milk he fucking cannot get enough of the stuff you got to follow him on twitter a new milk pick every day you didn't change your name and send me a contract for a venue did you i don't think so. What did I change my name to? First name only. Nisha. No, that's not me. It's Nisha.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Oh, there you are. Tim Batt. July 3, 2020. Hello, my sweet boys. My sweet boys. My sweet boys. My boys. Hallelujah. I really want to ride to you. I'm listening to Friends on 100 as I write this
Starting point is 00:29:53 and loved your idea of a dream guest ensemble consisting of Reverend Chris Knoth, Squirrel, Candice Burgin, and Nick Swartzen. Are you guys aware that several of these fine celebrities are on the app Cameo? Just for future reference, Nick Swartzen will run you a cool
Starting point is 00:30:14 99 huck and Chris Knoth charges a whopping 250 dineros Sadly, Squirrel isn't on Cameo yet, maybe tweeting at him could help, and Candice 150 dineros. Sadly, Squirrel isn't on Cameo yet. Maybe tweeting at him could help. And Candice Burgin, don't play that game.
Starting point is 00:30:30 It's also worth noting that you can get Runkle Crunkle himself for only 100 smackaroos. All this to say, I know it's not the same as a real interview, but I bet us friendzone chums could pony up enough dough to get some pretty funny videos made. Just a thought. Say my name, you scurvy dogs. Michelle Doughbosh.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Pronounced Doughbosh as in here's some dough to get Chris Knopf to crack open that book of big ideas. Bosh. Man. Oh, man. What do you think about cameo guy uh i think one of the funniest things i heard i'm sure we talked about in the podcast was what was done through cameo where someone in australia got flavor flave to record a cameo for, this is not funny, trigger warning here, but a very disgraced former bishop in Australia, George Pell, who is a known-
