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. I am a lineman for the county. And I drive the main road. Searching in the sun for another overload.
Starting point is 00:00:42 I hear you singing in the wire. I can hear you singing in the wild I can hear you through the wine And the Wichita line man Is still on the line. Glenn Campbell, RIP. He's dead, eh? Presumably.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Had quite a drinking problem, as I understand it. Oh, really? The problem was he drank too much. Yeah, he died. August 8, 2017. We're recording this on August 9, 2017 so rip rip also never say the date on these recordings ever lost one of the good ones well it's a beautiful late midwinter's day in new zealand in 2017 um we've got an election around the corner. The world is a wonderful place.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Tim? Hey, everybody. Are you with me? I'm here. Are you okay? I'm here. What was that? What?
Starting point is 00:02:00 What were you doing? I was checking up on the emails. I had to get them up. There's some there. Someone's just sent us a video of them sprinting as fast as they can in their office. Oh, God. But... Hold on.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Let me fuck this off. Gee whiz. I hate it. What is that? Is that just us hearing that? I've always said... No, that's not the thing. It's always been a problem with this mic, to be honest, ever since I got it.
Starting point is 00:02:22 You hear that? You hear how fucked that is? Yeah. You bought new mics, haven't you yeah man they got delayed because of the pandemic so what i ordered them about six weeks ago tim need i remind you it's august 9 2017 get cute with me the only pandemic i can think of is can't fucking refer to microphones i've bought and then jump backwards. Yeah, I can. Why can't you buy a microphone today? August 8th.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Well, then I guess these are new microphones. The new ones are the ones that are broken. Anyway, we've got a letter here that I really want to read to you because I think you're going to like it, Tim. Do you reckon? We received this letter on the 10th of October 2020 and it says the following. How do you frost your stuff fellas? Tim. Do you reckon? We received this letter on the 10th of October, 2020.
Starting point is 00:03:07 And it says the following. How do you frost? Yes. The fellas. Yeah. I've been listening to you guys since season one. I'm a plant breeder. So my days consist of being alone with plants all day, every day.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Listen, I've never heard of that before. A plant breeder is an occupation. Yeah, man. That's so cool. Hell yeah. Your lighthearted Ki is an occupation. Yeah, man. That's so cool. Hell yeah. Your lighthearted Kiwi banter has kept me sane through all these years.
Starting point is 00:03:31 And the last year, I became one of the only legal cannabis breeders in the US state of Colorado. Wow. I know your love for the devil's lettuce and thought a cool way to repay you boys for the years of sanity would be to let you guys name a strain or two. You are my favourite podcast and I would love it to have a strain named by you all.
Starting point is 00:03:51 If you can't land on just one, we could have a couple of strains named from the twisted mind of the boys. Cannabis Sandler. It's simply that.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Cannabis Sandler. That should be the sub-breed. It should be one word though. Cannabis Sandler. Cannabis Sandler. Cannabis Sandler. That should be the sub-breath. It should be one word, though. Cannabisandler. Cannabisandler. Cannabisandler. Yeah, because, yeah, this works,
Starting point is 00:04:11 because the last letter's an S on cannabis. Cannabisandler. But it's like, it can be two words, because it's like cannabis sativa and cannabis indica, so it's just cannabisandler. Yeah, I've got no qualms do you want cannabis montgomery do you want it a bit more like personalized no i mean i would love to name a strain the worst idea of all time oh true right that didn't even occur to me that would not be a good marketing no
Starting point is 00:04:38 your dealer was like okay we've got uh got Purple Dreams, High Roller, Worst Idea of All Time. Can you hear the microphone farting now? Yeah, yeah, I can hear that. God. Everyone can hear that. That's a rickety old set. We've got to upgrade the set. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:04:58 I've got to get some new cables. I think it's partly the cables. But this microphone, I've always had trouble with it. Anyway, sorry. Back to our plant breeder friend. Well, anyway, this is from a man by the name of Josh. And they said, P.S. The next batch of new strains will be coming down around the beginning of November,
Starting point is 00:05:13 if this reaches you before then. If not, I'm always making new strains, but it'll probably be in 2021 when I get to naming them. He's always making new strains. Strains. He's always making new strains. So's always making new strains so would you like maybe if we have um how do you say t-w-i-o-a-t twiat twiat twiat oh that sucks as well people hate that yeah people there was one letter we got in the friend zone from someone who really didn't like
Starting point is 00:05:40 that i did that i remember that but it was for good mathematical reasons why because usually you would say a um acronym to save time it's kind of the whole point of acronyms but there's actually more syllables in tw i o a t than there is in worst idea of all time because of the w yeah twiowat how crazy is w a yeah w is a real rebel in the alphabet. We don't think about W enough, I think. W strikes me as quite a recent letter. I'd think it was a late addition to the English alphabet. Everything else is one syllable. That can't be true.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yeah. Really? Find me a letter with more than one syllable apart from W. Shit. And then W's got three yeah it's not even like it's double it's triple u god damn it it's boosting the uh average by so much like the mean there's only one the median is the same there's always one it's the exception that proves the rule I've spent so much time thinking about the alphabet lately And words I've been flooded with words that people like Yeah
Starting point is 00:06:53 Tell everyone why, Guy I'm hosting some spelling bees here in Auckland, New Zealand And I was soliciting for words And one person sent me a list You're a tool onto the mic Oh yeah, sorry I can move it for you and one person sent me a list onto the mic I can move it for you I should stop touching it touch it more
Starting point is 00:07:10 this one person sent me a list a listener Alex McLeay fuck, shouldn't have said their name said I've been working on a list for 6 years to be included on the list words must feel good to say out loud it's not edited so there may be some double ups and i'm not sure how trickily
Starting point is 00:07:30 spellable they are but enjoy and then it's just like about 12 screenshots of the list words including plump okay blemish yeah archipelago Flourish Blustery Crescendo Haberdashery Itch Concoction Query My god There's so many plosives
Starting point is 00:07:52 Concoction Query I've already said that Conundrum Fragrant Shrapnel Supine Debauchery
Starting point is 00:08:03 Supine Launch These are such nice words Do you want to read some? Read out these ones What does supine debauchery supine launch these are such nice words do you want to read some read out these ones what does supine mean I don't know what supine elixir
Starting point is 00:08:13 panache plinth it means like it means lying face upwards supine hmm huh
Starting point is 00:08:20 I just did the research or failing to act or protest as a result of moral weakness or indolence. Oh, God. So I guess like rolling over. I'm going to stop touching my line. What's going on with you at the moment, man? What's happening?
Starting point is 00:08:36 I had a really nice walk this morning. I've been going for walks. I've been getting up early recently. When we don't have Olive, I've been getting up at 6. I do an hour of work and then i either go for i've been i usually go for runs in the afternoon olive's a person by the way not the food uh so i've been going for a walk i walk up or wairaka which is the local moanga and then i come down for a coffee uh from a guy called kay who i think makes the best coffee in a. I would say that. He's near my house,
Starting point is 00:09:05 but I fucking love his coffee. I think you put a best of stamp quite readily. You put very authoritative best in Auckland claims on this podcast. It's a shame we can't receive visitors, really, because I would love to... Get challenged on that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Also, take someone out for a day in my Auckland. There's a, there's a, there's a stretch of road that I look at from the top of Awadaka, which is like, it's Mount, it's Mount Albert road.
Starting point is 00:09:33 And it runs, it's like one of the main arteries. It's around a bend and it runs down to, you can see it runs down to where Sandringham meets. And every morning when I walk, walk up there, I, I,
Starting point is 00:09:41 I squat down. I've got like a really open hips i can squat very comfortably which is quite uncommon for someone of my build for like four to five minutes and i just watch the cars go down the road and i think about all the people in the cars all of their lives and all the different places they're going and how they've you know like bought the cars from someone else who also was just going about their life and had a good day at work because they sold the car. And I think about, I look at all the houses
Starting point is 00:10:12 and I think about all the lives, all the fully fleshed out lives of the people that take place in the houses. I look at all the trees and there's quite a lot of birdsong up there. And I just think none of these people know or care about me, and I take great power and comfort in that. Hell yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:10:33 And I've been doing that every morning for the last two or three weeks, and it's put me in a really good space. That's awesome. Sounds very meditative, zen it's quite zen very rob schneider ish yeah i have been trying to channel more of my schneider it just seems like a really well put together dude um so that's been what's up with me i've got a bit of i've got a little bit of live work on at the moment you know i've been um i'm in a rich vein of form but it's like getting enough places to enjoy it you know like you know i've been um i'm in a rich vein of form but it's like getting enough places to
Starting point is 00:11:07 enjoy it you know like you know sometimes you suddenly you're being funny for a while and you're like get that man on a stage and then get a camera on that man you don't know how long it lasts for it'll be gone before you know it exactly and then you go rats that's what you worry about um but i'm good i'm in a really good i'm in a good zone i feel like um weather is such a big you know representation for how it is and it's been balmy here in early august 2017 how are you doing tim it has been balmy um good tired actually i got a good i got like the first good night's sleep that i can remember in ages the night before last last night's one was fine but i got up early today to do work before this tell me about the one the night before last it was just very good it was like
Starting point is 00:11:56 it's the kind of sleep that i only get if i'm absolutely physically spent yeah and my body is like in shutdown mode which is what happened is that um it's probably not desirable that that's what you have to do to get yourself a good night's rest every time uh no probably not probably not the best but it felt good it felt good that night i was how long was it i was hot off the heels of a political victory i know um Thank you. I was part of a campaign to get a real outside progressive candidate a seat in Parliament. An electoral seat. An electoral seat to represent our city, the central area that makes up where Guy and I live. And she wasn't supposed to win, but she did, because we tried very, very hard,
Starting point is 00:12:46 and we got it across the line. That's right. I read an article in the newspaper this morning about one of her competitors who was meant to win, but was so threatened by your candidate that they asked your candidate to drop out. Yeah. And it was like a photo of all of the
Starting point is 00:13:07 new mps that were being welcomed into see the americans might not get this as much because they've got a two-party system but in mmp or any political system where you've got multiple parties you have to be conscious of this thing of splitting the vote or you kind of like it's the argument people made about jill stein steining if you will um steining is it no it's all right i like yeah sorry your one's better i'm mucking around with words um hillary clinton's chances because if you i think if you added all of jill stein's votes to hillary clinton's then she would have um won the electoral college but it's not a very good way of looking at things because you usually have to assume
Starting point is 00:13:46 that 100% of those voters would get added to the other side, and that is not how people behave in a group. It's the microphone just making itself known again. I just want to show you this diagram of someone in a supine position. Supine and prone. Prone, okay, so we've got a three-dimensional model of a man in black
Starting point is 00:14:05 underpants he has got a short back and sides and no stubble he is hairless in fact he has a completely hairless body and there's the word supine raised above his face he is in a horizontal position looking up with an arm um so stretched out by his side and his his fingers are what would you what's the adjective for that what is that called splayed splayed splayed fingers and then a prone position which is underneath him um and labeled as such has the man sort of rolled onto his front i'm just going to tweet this picture out without any context from the Worst Idea account. That sounds good. I quite like doing that.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I like doing that on the Worst Idea Twitter, just throwing some things out without any context or any words. Yeah. It's a good way to live. True hustlers know. Oh, we should read some mail. Speaking of which, I've actually got a message on the Twitter account,
Starting point is 00:15:01 which is at twioatpod, by the way, or twioat. What do you think of the phonics of saying it as a word? Because it's rubbing me. I love it. I love it because it bothers people. I'm a real piece of shit. Anyway, we've got a DM here received that says... That's a direct message for those of you not in the know a joke i wish i came
Starting point is 00:15:27 up with it was written by a woman named uh clarissa chandra hassan who's a comedian in wellington was um talking about how she needed something quickly and she said she needed it as asap as possible which is just a perfect joke. What's it called? Tortology. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, Timbo Bimbo and Guy in the Sky.
Starting point is 00:15:52 It's me and you. I'm a relatively new fan of the worst idea of all time, meaning both that I'm young and I've also not been listening for that long. That's good. One of my very favorite things in the world is long or ridiculous titles for things. Preferably both. Long or ridiculous titles for things. Preferably both. Long or ridiculous titles for things. Preferably both. Personal favorites include pretty much all the song titles of the Surfsharn Stevens record, Illinois.
Starting point is 00:16:17 The Chumbawamba album, The Boy Bands Have Won. Please look up the full title. I'll do that right now. Midleter, everybody. That's right right it's dynamic it's a dynamic way to live because then it dies then it's over
Starting point is 00:16:31 then it's done and the boy bands have won it's the 13th studio album by British music group Chumbawamba released in 2008 I've talked about them before on the podcast day
Starting point is 00:16:42 and most recently the titles of Guy Montgomery's comedy shows A Man of Fine Taste I've only about them before on the podcast day. And most recently, the titles of Guy Montgomery's comedy shows. A man of fine taste. I've only been able to scour two from the internet and potty. I was wondering if you could enlighten me on any others I've not been able to find and also come up with one for his next live show, live on the pod. Big love from the deep dark depths of Western Sydney. Say my name, you handsome motherfuckers.
Starting point is 00:17:03 James. So most recently, the titles of Guy Montgomery's I've only been able to scout two from the internet and potty. Here's your next title for your live show. An approximation of the formula
Starting point is 00:17:14 to make people laugh during these uncertain times. I can't, I can't. By Guy Montgomery. I can't, I can't run with that. I've already,
Starting point is 00:17:23 I think I've already talked about what I want the next one to be on the pod. What? I can't operate on this. I've already talked about what I want the next one to be on the pod. What? I can't operate on this boy. He is my son. Yeah, that's very good. And I am Guy Montgomery.
Starting point is 00:17:35 My first show title. Have you experienced them being a fucking nightmare to get on registration for? And also on the tickets. When you print the tickets, I always have to hack off half the titles. So it's just like, I cannot operate on this boy will be what it says on the ticket. That's still very good.
Starting point is 00:17:52 But my first one was, which is where it started, was back in 2014. It was called Guy Montgomery Presents a Succinct and Concise Summary on How He Feels About Certain Things. That was at our pop-up comedy venue. That one wasn't.
Starting point is 00:18:10 The next one was. I got it wrong. Don't feel too badly about it. A lot of reminiscing on this podcast because we've been doing it for so long. There's a lot of memories to recount, you know? Remember that time we went to California and you shat your pants? Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I'm trying to get into... That was only the morning after you bailed out some 17-year-old teenager at a house party in Malibu because you thought he'd put video cameras all over the house. I was utterly convinced. To film a prank show. Yeah. I did.
Starting point is 00:18:51 I fully believed that with every fiber of my being. You really did believe that. And I hit him up. And from memory, he was the bassist of the band, The Neighbourhood, who had a big hit. Sweaterweather. Sweaterweather. Okay. Do you know what I was trying to do, guy?
Starting point is 00:19:08 Log into Patreon because I never read their messages and I always put mine the fact that I don't. But it's surprisingly hard on my phone to get in. Do you want to do it on my computer? No, because the hard thing is I'm trying to remember like passwords and stuff that are normally just saved in to the browser. This is absolutely bullshit.
Starting point is 00:19:28 And if I move the microphone at all, it's going to make that great sound again. Did I tell you I introduced a third password to my life recently? What is it? No. Even by my thinness. Well done. Well done, you. It took a minute.
Starting point is 00:19:42 It was a test and you passed. So here are some messages, everybody. Brought to you by my laptop tim's laptop it's got all his passwords saved in it which is good because he can't remember freaking any of them off the top of his head tim's laptop like a regular laptop but tim's aaron poppleton um oh shit oh yeah cool that's good because the message i opened up was ps you can obviously say my name i mean i signed the fucking thing with my name but now you like have to make it explicit because you all are rightfully cautious and kind about saying people's names without their permission so now i'll read um the body of text that it was a postscript for which i may have already read because it came in six months ago and it has been marked as red i'm sure you've already seen this but just in case you haven't
Starting point is 00:20:30 someone made a butthole cut of cats a glorious reality yeah we've definitely we've seen that thank you aaron from germany um okay here's another message um sidebar so this looks like it's a postscript something else as well sidebar i did some googling and vimeo's official stance on that feature seems to be here's our api build the add-on yourself this will be about you when you're setting up for happening is that no that wouldn't be on here mate hello the worst oh maybe that was when we kept trying to do a live stream and they kept on taking it down because we were playing homo lone three on youtube live yeah but not really only like a tiny bit only the visuals well it wasn't even that
Starting point is 00:21:14 though like if we had had it in full screen it was just our voices i could understand taking it down but we just had it in a tiny like on a fucking little thing yeah Yeah, it's true. This is all good. Hello, West Idea of All Time. Quick question. Your Deercom videos are on YouTube, which I like, because YouTube remembers my place if I stop and come back later. The live shows are on Vimeo,
Starting point is 00:21:35 which as far as I can tell does not have that feature. Are there, could there be, YouTube versions? I noticed they cost money for non-Patreons, and I don't know if YouTube can do that, so I totally understand if not. Alternatively, a download would suit my setup.
Starting point is 00:21:50 But it's even more obvious why you might not want to do that. I'm rambling. Sorry. Thank you. Brave boys, etc. Yada yada. In case it wasn't obvious, this is not a question for the friendzone. So do not say my name. Well, I've read it, but I haven't said your name Shout out So let's talk about it There are some live shows that are on
Starting point is 00:22:10 For the Patreon supporters And that's connected through Vimeo Because they do the best paywall That I could invest the tiny amount of time That I had into figuring that bit out And those are great videos For anyone who misses the sparkle of live performance they're pretty good but if you're not a patreon supporter for whatever reason
Starting point is 00:22:30 you can buy them independently i think you rent them for like five dollars you get all four for the year or something yeah i can't i might have i'm pretty sure that's still the case and um please fuck my shit up on twitter if it's not, and I'll try to correct that. I've found it here. Yep. Worst day of all time, live shows. Rent all for US $4 for a one-year streaming period. If you do that, you will get five,
Starting point is 00:22:57 roughly five hours of content, five shows. You'll get our live show from New York, Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles, and the London Podcast Festival last year. That's pretty cool. And some of them look really good. Some of them I missed the focus a tiny bit on the cameras. But most of them look pretty good. I was quite happy with how that turned out. It took me a long time to figure it out.
Starting point is 00:23:14 I know that we shouldn't really be doing another Reminisce. But my God, didn't we? I mean, one of the things I'm so grateful for this year, 2017, is how much travel I snuck in in 2016 before it would become an impossibility. And this year, 2017, is how much travel I snuck in in 2016 before it would become an impossibility in this year, 2017. Like, didn't we fucking go out and see some of America last year?
Starting point is 00:23:31 We sure did, Alan. And some of London. First time I had set foot on the continent of Europe, which means if I hadn't gone on that trip, maybe I'd never go to Europe. That's right. If you were to go to Britain now, you would still technically be in Europe, but if you were to go to Britain now You would still technically be in Europe
Starting point is 00:23:46 But if you were to go next year You'd just be in Britain What's the deal with that? Is it like Does it still count I mean it's still continental Europe Is that right? Yeah
Starting point is 00:23:54 Well I mean it is an island Sorry? Oh it is an island I thought you said it's in Ireland No no no Is it? Next to Ireland It is an island.
Starting point is 00:24:05 So, I mean, technically. But, like, we're in continental, you know, Oceania. Yeah. We're some islands. But I've done research into Oceania, and people, like, a lot of people just call the continent Australia. Yeah, I've heard that. Which feels exclusionary. I know, I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:24:21 It's a country. It's a region of not just New Zealand, but a whole lot of fine nations that comprise our part of the world. Micronesia, Polynesia. Yeah. Those are areas. Regions. Man, this fucking microphone. I wonder if it's the cable or the mic.
Starting point is 00:24:35 We'll never know. Hey, Frosty fellas. Long-time listener. First time Patreon here. Feels great to join you, and I'll be staying for a while, especially because I love the friend zones. This is, ostensibly, a message for Guy, but Tim, hello, and thank you to you too.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Guy, I've been watching the Guy Montz Spelling Bee every week since it started, and I've thoroughly enjoyed it thus far. I suspect you may have thought that, having done New Zealand and US versions, it might be time to do a version with some British people. However, as you well know, we don't have any comedians here.
Starting point is 00:25:05 So as an avid fan of the bee and a fairly proficient speller, I'd like to put myself forward. Evidence as to why I would be a good participant includes that you have liked and even responded to a couple of my tweets. So we already have a rapport. A rapport.
Starting point is 00:25:21 And that I have a sense of humour, e.g. I like The Simpsons in the worst idea of all-time podcast that is the litmus test surely for a sense of humor and god knows the thing to make this really fly is another straight white man with the confidence to submit himself with basically no reputation record or viewer pudding clout pulling clout i like viewer pudding clout viewer pudding clout i would also be happy to play if it wasn't televised as i can't get any of my friends to do a spelling bee with me although i'm not sure um what would be in this for you so keep it frosty fellas henry kiss and he's got his twitter handle henry balcom i got him here well henry i've had to put the ones online on
Starting point is 00:26:10 hold at the minute um and if you can make it to new zealand by tonight saturday oh 2020 you got three years dude 2020 i'll put you on. 6.30pm at the basement studio. Be ready, friend. Ticket's still available. Paul writes, Tim Thumb and Guy Guy, long-time listener, first-time mailer, say, My name, it's Paul Mahone. Sounds like a sentence when you say that.
Starting point is 00:26:39 I'd say Paul Mahon. Oh, yeah, that's probably right. Yeah, true. Many years ago, my wife and her brother were sitting down to watch you with Zac Efron-fueled Bender, We Are Your Friends. Having seen the trailer,
Starting point is 00:26:51 I knew they were in for all sorts of cinematic badness, although I had never checked to see if it was as critically panned as I'd imagined, so I surfed my way over to its IMDb page to clarify my suspicions, but zero surprise to see it was rated at a solid 38 but what really grabbed my attention was when i finger dashed my way down to the ever curious trivia trivia section where lo and behold i found a nugget
Starting point is 00:27:16 of information that would change the course of my life season three of the new zealand based podcast the worst idea of all time is dedicated to watching we are your friends once a week every week for a year and then reviewing the movie raised eyebrows and curiosity at an all-time high i had to dive right in i started with season two as above mentioned i'd not watched we are your friends yet but somewhere somehow along my life train, I'd actually seen Sex and Darcy 2. Already knowing how bad the film was and some of the lore behind it, I'm putting a comma there, I was all sorts of intrigued to hear two strapping young fellas week by week respond to it all.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Little did I realize it would digress into such madness a joyful madness i say this podcast has brought me laughs to say that this podcast has brought me laughs is an understatement i can't even listen to it in bed anymore as the shakes from laughing have disturbed my wife to the point that i'm certain she just doesn't like ye because of it i've never heard so much mention of this heard much mention of this in your friend zone but the fact ye guys for the most part stay clear of current topics slash politics etc etc is also absolutely refreshing i'm going to hit pause on that my apologies for bringing up specific recent political events in the year 2017 uh knowing ye pressing play on pure nonsense and escapism i feel like
Starting point is 00:28:48 in the friend zone it's different right a little friend zone's pretty fucking stupid i mean we've spoken a little bit about um you know we've speculated about a pandemic yeah and in this one and not this one but in friend zones this year but that's inevitable we're all right we're all right we're good um escapism is something not other podcasts can do for which i congratulate ye on while on the topic of topics sometimes timbo has uttered stuff that question my own reality and that the jokes or rants seem almost too much directed toward me that some overlord has constructed a podcast just to feed my senses i got to a point where i started Please send that along, Paul. I had a huge 8-bit phase in my MySpace days and my first music video is for an 8-bit track. Please send that along, Paul. I'd love to see it.
Starting point is 00:29:48 For some reason, you talked about walking around with a backpack full of electronics in the rain. I can't even remember the context, but that's just been my entire life here in Ireland. I reckon this person's just a geek, like me. And also, does this sound familiar?
Starting point is 00:30:03 Yes. Yeah, same, eh? These are pretty popular, I guess, but in the mix fit me right down to a T. Ye love for the office, extras for your spieler, spicy food, a hatred of the sounds of people eating. I've no idea why, but ye talked about someone looking like Hayley Joel Osmond before, and I can't even begin to express how much that played a part in my life when six cents came out my entire school just called me i see dead people rough thankfully it sort of died off by mid by my mid-20s but i i think am told i look so much like him for such a long time timbrose also dropped some knowledge bombs about OLED burning, fav icons, as well as the sales pitch in a meetings of which off fuck topics. I have literally never heard any other media address.
Starting point is 00:30:55 And I, for one, I'm glad you boys are out there fighting the good fight. Oh, and my wife's name is Zoe as well. You are me. This is like that scene in Sex and the City. That's right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:07 At the gay wedding. Anyhow, guys, I've rambled enough. From one island to the other side of the world to ye's, peace out. Paul, probably Mahone. Thanks, Paul. That's lovely. And I'm sorry to everyone else if I read it twice, but it's gratifying that I've got a version of me in Ireland.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Yeah. Probably a better one. Just take it as you get it guys just relax this is a relaxed friend zone this one this one is very relaxed it's laid back we kicked off with glenn campbell do you the rhinestone cowboy himself do you feel zen do you know a great rhinestone cowboy himself. Do you feel zen? Do you know a great rhinestone cowboy song? It's the Fortet remix of Mad Villain's Rhinestone Cowboy. I've not heard that. I'm so relaxed I'm yawning. I think that's just tired, actually. They're different things, eh? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Do you reckon they are kind of similar? Like, when you're tired, you feel more relaxed? No. say yeah do you reckon they are kind of similar like when you're tired you feel more relaxed no sometimes you get stressed out when you're tired um that's true but no like relaxation is not i think it can be like there's nothing more relaxing than being tired and having permission to sleep but i think relaxation is more a frame of mind. And it is like probably close to what I aspire to. Like if someone's saying, how are you going? And I say, relax to me,
Starting point is 00:32:34 that is equitable to good. Like if I'm in a relaxed frame of mind, life is good and performance. If I'm relaxed, that's the, that's the dream. Like what is your, what if someone relaxed, that's the dream. Well, that's very specific. Because if you're performing relaxed, you're right.
Starting point is 00:32:51 That's fantastic. What's your preferred state of mind if you're going out on stage? Oh, same, man. Relaxed. There you go. Here's the Rhinestone Cowboy quartet. Oh, I've heard this Bit of fun
Starting point is 00:33:09 So is this Mad Villain? How does it all work? So we've got You've got MF Doom And Mad Lib And they combine The producer They combine to make Mad Villain
Starting point is 00:33:19 Gotcha And then Fortet released A remix of that entire Mad Villainy album And then the things That has been For years everyone's like There that entire Mad Villainy album. And then the thing that has been... For years, everyone's like, there's a Mad Villain 2 album coming out, but it's just not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:33:30 And I think that's because of MF Doom. Because Madlib is one of the most prolific music producers of the last 10 or 20 years. MF Doom rules, though. Apparently he did a bunch of gigs where he just sent other people out dressed up as him. In the mask. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:48 Does that rule? Yeah, fuck yeah, man. That's what New Zealand comic performer, the boy with tape on his face did. What? No, he didn't. Yeah, he trained up a few other tape faces. And so if you're going to a tape face show, you don't necessarily know that you're going to get the guy because you could be getting a performer doing tape face in a tape face show.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Holy shit. It's like franchising yourself. I totally get it because he has created that act. And so, I mean, seeing the act is the kind of magic thing. He hasn't really built a business on himself as a persona per se it's like seeing this amazing act so you kind of could do that that's so impressive but people didn't know and business savvy yeah people didn't know and people were pundits were upset because they thought that you know like until it he sort of had to do
Starting point is 00:34:41 would he get people who matched his physicality obviously so it wouldn't like kind of you wouldn't clock to it but he sort of had to retroactively acknowledge that this is what was happening because like that wow sam right yeah there was finesse in the language of the way that it was presented it was like you know tape face the tape face experience or whatever yeah it was like if you were... It's like the Pink Floyd experience. Yeah. It's not the actual band, folks. That's why they have to call themselves that.
Starting point is 00:35:10 And Credence Clearwater Revisited. Hmm. John Fogarty's not in that one, I'm afraid. The music's good, though. The music's all right. Wings? They're only the band the Beatles could have been. Alan Partridge, terrible impression, great line.
Starting point is 00:35:29 I'm going to read just the last one for me, and you can do more if you want. No, you close it out. Okay. We've been going for ages. Such a mellow pace. Zarina has committed to the digital form of the written word the following. the digital form of the written word the following hey major timber anian maganian and sir guy batter see wait i've definitely read this one right
Starting point is 00:35:51 fuck i wish i had a better memory it would really make this show better i think i just wanted to say that i feel the three of us are in a one-sided correspondence relationship right is this picking anything for you i'm going to keep reading one-sided on my side is this picking anything for you i'm going to keep reading one-sided on my side is i am now dependent on the dulcet sounds of your beautiful friendship with one another to raise my tired bones from bed every morning this chronic depressive appreciates your levity and all that you do definitely read it on the podcast yeah but it's a lovely message it really is i'm gonna go to the last few sentences um to close it out yeah uh oh dear that's me running my mouth without having seen the films i better check myself before i wreck myself well wishes and posh air kisses from serena
Starting point is 00:36:37 thank you serena and thank you to all of you who are i've potentially read two messages twice this is not good this is not good content yeah but I think this has been a good hang this is from August hey there Timber T Mutual and Geico you're panicking I've had an unfortunate amount of tequila and I'm 100% ready to make it your problem
Starting point is 00:36:59 I love your podcast and always listen to it when I brush my teeth here's the order I listened season 4, half of season two, overlooked and undercooked. They've written underlooked and undercooked. That's cool. Your emergency broadcasts and the other half of season two.
Starting point is 00:37:17 I'm almost done with season three. I laugh every time I hear you talk about not doing season four. Boner Patrol, is that even what you're calling it? Has been fantastic. You've got some A-grade meat here and I'm not just talking about cock. Shit has not been good and listening to your lovely dulcet New Zealand voices always cheers me up. May you live forever solely for my pleasure. Stay safe, stay sane, stay frosty, and say my name. It's fake, but the thought counts. August.
Starting point is 00:37:51 I'm not going to say their last name because I don't know if they realize that I'm grabbing that from what Gmail is telling me. Shout it out from the rooftops. Thank you, August. Look after yourself. I hope you had a lot of water between drinks and i hope that you woke up the next morning feeling fresh is there a bigger delta in life between two things that are the same thing than cheap and expensive tequila i think not well you think that is you're drinking the same thing either way no it's the opposite oh yeah they are entirely different beasts i've
Starting point is 00:38:24 only a few times in my life drank really good tequila and oh yeah they are entirely different beasts i've only a few times in my life drank really good tequila and it is a whole other story and i've drank for a lot of times in my life bad tequila bad tequila is kerosene yes it's genuinely disgusting yep it's the smell that hits you as soon as you put it up what is it i was thinking about this was it this morning or yesterday it It's not really relevant when, but like, I just can't believe how often I just drank very cheap, uncut spirits as a youth for the sole purpose of just getting absolutely hammered. Why can't you believe that?
Starting point is 00:39:01 What's not to believe? It's a core human desire to fuck with our consciousness always i know but like there's just better apple i wish i could you know if i ever have a child it's just it's just impossible the circle of life is impossible because i'm like it bothers me that i did that i look at it as wasted time not wasted years but those instances wasted time like alter your state of consciousness, sure, but don't keep going until you're physically ill or you're not generating memories. Where's the value in that?
Starting point is 00:39:31 Not wrong. I used to just neck cheap vodka or cheap tequila, and it's like... It didn't taste good. It didn't feel good. It felt good for a very limited window That's the thing isn't it That's what gets you
Starting point is 00:39:49 Keep it in mind people We're going to go now We're off to watch some pornography For it is 13 minutes after 11am And that is the perfect time To watch some softcore porn And I need you more than want you. And I want you for all time.
Starting point is 00:40:13 And the witch at alignment. Well, it's the friend zone with Tim and Guy. It's the friend zone. We're going to have a good time It's the Friend Zone With Tim and Guy Because making friends Is the best idea of all time
