Starting point is 00:00:00 As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors, like when our estrogen levels drop during menopause, causing the risk of heart disease to go up. Know your risks. Visit heartandstroke.ca. So Josh is camping on an island. What? Lifestyles of the rich and the famous.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Yeah, and he goes, I should be right though, give me a call. Okay. He goes, you know, reception might not be great, but let's find out. Hello? Josh? Yeah, hi. He can hear us, yes. He can hear us. Yeah, is this Tony and Ryan? Yeah, hi. Hi, Josh. He can hear us. He can hear us.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Yeah, is this Tony and Ryan? Yeah. Hi, Josh. Hey, I'm so glad it worked. I was a little worried that the signal wouldn't come through. Well, we were worried as well. Yeah, but just in case it cuts out all of a sudden, do you mind approving the podcast before we lose you?
Starting point is 00:01:07 Of course I will. Cut us there for a second. So where are you actually – where do we find you? Where actually are you right now? I am on the seaside little campsite on Vancouver Island in British Columbia in Canada. Yeah, that's – Wow.
Starting point is 00:01:23 That's incredible. Just spent the last four hours trying to put up a bloody tent. Nearly broke up with my girlfriend about four times. But we're now trying to put a fire on and hopefully not burn the tent down. Or break up again. So we call it a good time. My girlfriend's eagerly listening in, but I haven't allowed her to get on the phone because she hasn't paid for Champion Tapa.
Starting point is 00:01:44 So she's not allowed. What's her name? Felicity. Fuck you, Felicity. She's got it. She's swearing back at you. Yeah, great. It feels right.
Starting point is 00:01:57 It feels right. Hi, this is Josh from Vancouver, Canada and I approve this podcast. Happy Friday. Happy Friday. Welcome to the Tony and Ryan podcast. My name's Ryan, Vice Captain of the ship. Tony, our queen is with us.
Starting point is 00:02:24 I just feel so bad that when you call me, like it doesn't sound like it's a self-imposed nickname. Well, you called yourself muscles and mad dog. Would you like me to say that instead? You're the queen. You tell me what to say. No, no, no. As you were. I'm just the vice captain of the ship. Butter to your bread, mate. I'm just here to help
Starting point is 00:02:39 you with your needs. Are you into something that you're ashamed that you're into? Because there's a part of my personality that I'm really pumped up about that it's like embarrassing and it's a turn off for a lot of people. So is there something that you like that might be a bit embarrassing? Maybe it's just a TV show that's a bit cheesy. Maybe it's a hobby you've got that's a bit wanky.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Just have a think about that because later on this ep, I've got something to admit. You know this about me, but I don't think I've ever talked about it on the pod before, and I'm a bit embarrassed about it. So that's on the way. Oh, I'm very intrigued. First up, though, what's the craziest thing you've done for sex? And wasn't this a gift from Callie Krieger,
Starting point is 00:03:27 who popped this into the Facebook group, Tony and Ryan Podcast Facebook group. This is what she says. I'm about to be driving five hours and crossing state borders for a dick appointment with an old fling. Dick appointment. Wow. Isn't that visceral and just, you know, exactly, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Could you imagine she turns up? I'm here for my dick appointment. Yeah, I've got a dick appointment at 10 o'clock. Just this way, Kelly? Yeah. Oh, fucking hell. Yep. And, I mean, everyone, just getting around the term dick appointment,
Starting point is 00:04:01 bring it into your repertoire, your vocabulary, your lexicon. Vernacular. Fuck, that's the word I was trying to get into. What did I say? Vocabulary. Oh, it's the same. Yeah, okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:11 No, I was adding, not replacing. Yeah, I was so proud that I kept saying that word last week and now a week later it's no longer in my vocabulary. Vernacular. Vernacular. Fuck. Lauren Steele says, oh, better be good. Five hours, state borders.
Starting point is 00:04:29 And Callie replies, he's six foot nine. How tall are you? Six foot oh. So he's a foot taller than you. Yeah. Holy shit. And she goes, and yes, is the answer. Oh, my goodness. Yeah. Actually. I mean, traveling five, is the answer. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Yeah. I actually. I mean, travelling five hours, you wouldn't if, you know. Yeah. It's not the size. It's what you do with it. So. Well, he does both apparently.
Starting point is 00:04:54 I guess, yeah. Are you blushing? Both is good. No, I just, I just, I don't know. I just, something that people probably don't really know about me is that obviously I'm disgusting, right, and I'm very crass, but I'm like a real prude when it comes to like actual sex with me. Happy to talk and tell dirty jokes, but then it comes down to it,
Starting point is 00:05:22 you're like, oh. Yes, like I'm not very good at actually being vulnerable, so when I comes down to it, you're like, oh. Yes. Like I'm not very good at actually being vulnerable, so when I hear stuff like that, I'm like. Vishmaya. I'm Canadian and I'm currently in New Zealand and it is what it is. Oh, they don't like New Zealand? I think someone else is in New Zealand and she's got to do what she's got to do. So how far have you travelled?
Starting point is 00:05:48 Let me repeat this one for you. I am from Canada and I'm currently in New Zealand and it is what it is. I forgot the question. Yeah, right. Oh, passport for dick. That's big. What's your reason for travel? Business pleasure.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Are you saying family or for business? Well, I'll be getting down to business, but can I write dick appointment on the customs for me? Yeah, what's your soul address while you're away? What do you put on your visa? Are you a tourist? I'll be travelling. Where are you headed?
Starting point is 00:06:28 Up and down. When are you leaving? Well, when am I coming? Chelsea Moon has got into the conversation. I bet she has. Ivan, now, just go with me here because I'm just going to read it word for word. Oh, Chels. Of what it says.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Yep. I've only ever driven two hours for a duck appointment. She's in New Zealand as well. Then Rich replies, oh, nothing like a bit of duck. And then Alma Fudd says, oh, it must be duck season. And then two hours later, Chelsea Moon says, autocorrect. Just like me in two hours can get absolutely fucked. What a wild ride that was.
Starting point is 00:07:19 We needed our passport almost. Holy moly. Holy shit. And it's like you didn't know whether she was saying fuck or dick because darker could be either. Are you going for dick or a fuck? Well, I mean, same. Hopefully it's a fucking dick.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Now, Christopher Pizarro. Hi, Christopher. I've seen Christopher's name pop up a lot, I think. Yeah. I wonder if this is the same Christopher that ran into me at the pub the other night and he posted that thing. Maybe. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Tarpa's in the wild last Friday night. Yep. Because we now record during the week. Yes. Tony and I have our weekends back. What fucking bliss that is. And because Tony and I have our weekends back, Young Ryan. Yep. Just thought he'd. Went out and got a bit loose, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:08:06 Stretched the legs on Friday night. Let's just say you drove there, didn't drive home. Rode my scooter there. Yes. And had to go and pick it up on Monday. Yep. Yep. But, yeah, some tapas in the wild in the bar.
Starting point is 00:08:18 And. I love that. If you see me at a bar, don't come over and ask how much phone battery I've got. No, please do. Don't do that. It's a good icebreaker, I feel. It's better than them being like, oh, have you been to the bathroom? They don't have any towels.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Like, what would you rather? Ask me about the phone battery. Take what you get, I feel. So I think this might be the same Christopher, but if not, hey, great story. I feel. So I think this might be the same Christopher, but if not, hey, great story. I've never travelled five hours, but one time I hid under this guy's bed for an hour. So this guy's parents come home.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Yeah. And the guy's like, fuck, my parents are here. I didn't know they were going to be here. They usually just like drop in for a cup of tea or whatever. Go out the back door. We'll probably be an hour. And they go, no, no, I've travelled here for a reason and I'm going to be getting it done. If I just need to hide for an hour, then that's what I'm going to do.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And he goes, fine, get onto the bed. Hope your fucking phone's charged. Yeah. TikTok's without any volume though. Now, he said that he had to hide while he was having a chat with his mum because he was in the closet. And I originally thought that Christopher was under the bed and the other guy was physically in the closet.
Starting point is 00:09:36 In the cupboard, yeah. And so it took me, admittedly, too long to figure out what this story was. Hang on, hang on. So why is the mum in the cupboard and why is he out of the bed? Yeah, you're having a chat with your mum. Is she also in the cupboard? So he hadn't come out to his parents and there's a naked Christopher under the bed who's like, I'm not leaving until I get this done.
Starting point is 00:09:59 So he said it might not be a five-hour drive, but I feel the commitment is equal. And I tend to agree. I always remember watching, like, movies as a teenager or whatever where, you know, a boy would climb into a girl's window or something, and I always think, like, oh, how romantic that would happen. But you don't think that that would actually happen in real life. So hiding under the bed feels like a fake story but I'm like,
Starting point is 00:10:27 I'm not saying this is a lie but I'm like, how did that happen? And laying there for an hour, you would need to poo while you're under there. Me being in a place for an hour, terrifying. Maybe there was a towel under there. No, it was fine. Is that comedy from you? Have you ever done the, not shit on a towel because we know you've done that, but have you ever done the long wait for a dick appointment?
Starting point is 00:10:56 I was sort of, when I, I hate to bring up the fact that I lived in the US, but I sort of had a friend who was in a different state. Hang on. Where did you live? Don't fuck with me. What were you in? I was in St. Louis. You lived in the US?
Starting point is 00:11:12 What for? I played volleyball at a college. At college. And I met a girl on the plane and she was a singer and dancer in New York and then so we like met up a few times while we were over there. That's a hot story. Did you not know that before? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Yeah. So we met on the plane on the way over and she was a singer. Meeting a girl on a plane? The thought of it now. Hello. Amazing. I think about that now and I can't recognise the person I was because she wasn't sitting next to me, but there was a spare seat
Starting point is 00:11:45 and I had a laptop and I was, like, watching movies or whatever and we stopped in Auckland on the way to LA, which I didn't realise at the time. So we got to Auckland and they're like, oh, just a layover, half an hour or something. And then I was like, oh, how's the trip? She's like, oh, it's great. And I was like, oh, I've got a spare seat next to me
Starting point is 00:12:02 if you want to come over and watch movies on the laptop. She's like, oh, sounds great. And I'm like... Did she give've got a spare seat next to me if you want to come over and watch movies on the laptop. She's like, oh, that sounds great. And I'm like. Did she give you a handjob on the plane? No. She did? No. Did she?
Starting point is 00:12:16 Well, there was some. No. No, like, no, no. But, like, we definitely, like. Did you hook up on the plane? We were, like, you know. You fingered her on the plane? What happened? We made out on the plane and we, like? We were like, you know. You fingered her on the plane? Tony. What happened?
Starting point is 00:12:25 We made out on the plane and we like spent like a little, you know. What? Did you have sex with someone on a plane? No. What happened? Because it's like the logistics. How much happened on the plane? Like we're in the seats and it's like how far from Auckland to Los Angeles?
Starting point is 00:12:49 Ten hours. Don't – stop making hand gestures at me. Did you do hand stuff? No. You did? No. You absolutely did. Fuck off.
Starting point is 00:12:57 No. You did. I listened to this podcast. My wife listens to this podcast. That's a great story. Then we get to the other end and she has a, of the flight. Yeah, thank you. And she has a US passport because her parents were born in the US.
Starting point is 00:13:13 And because I was a foreign, I had to go to the foreign line. So she just walked straight through security. And I'm like in security for two hours. By the time I get through security, she's already gone. Oh my God. This is like a Meg Ryan film. Yeah. And then I reckon it must have been two months later.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Did you, like, add her on Facebook? Facebook was just starting, so I reckon I had it. MySpace or something? MySpace was embarrassingly a thing. Yeah. And about two months later, I was emptying my laptop bag, you know, the little laptop carry bag thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:46 And I found a little note and it had her email address. And so I emailed her. I was like, oh, hey, I don't know if you remember. You would remember, right? Yeah, I'd remember getting fingered on a plane. I'd think about it every day. That didn't happen. But I emailed
Starting point is 00:14:05 and was like you know how you been how are you settling into New York and whatever and she's like yeah great
Starting point is 00:14:10 and then I think we met up at Christmas and then I went to her family's place in the Bahamas and Miami
Starting point is 00:14:17 and then I went to meet her in New York and stuff as well yeah that's a great story I can't believe I never talked to that
Starting point is 00:14:23 and she came to visit in St. Louis, which is from New York, she's like, oh, this is nice. Hey, it's Josh from Vancouver, Canada and you're listening
Starting point is 00:14:33 to Tony and Ryan. Hey, sorry, Sorry, trying to get over that story. Wowza. A massive thank you to a few of our champion tapas. Joanne Tubby, Ace May, thank you so much. Justin D. Stocker, Marley Jane Greenway, Jacko Brown. Oh, hang on. Marley Jane Greenway? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Oh, mate, one of my good, good friends from high school is Marley Jane Greenway, Jacko Brown. Oh, hang on. Marley Jane Greenway? Yeah. Oh, mate, one of my good, good friends from high school is Marley Jane Greenway. Oh. Is it the same Marley? How many Marley Jane Greenways could there be? And I do know because she messaged me. She's been living in Mexico. She's been teaching English in Mexico and stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Oh, wow. And she messaged and said, can't wait to get my Frank Green water bottle. Do you deliver to Mexico? Oh, well, we absolutely do. We deliver everywhere. We're not hand deliver. And if it's a different Marley Jane Greenway, I mean,
Starting point is 00:15:31 what are the chances? Surely not. I think ours is back in Melbourne. I might call her. Oh, okay. No, continue on. Oh, are we still recording? Did you want to stop and you good?
Starting point is 00:15:40 Yeah, no, I'm good. Good to go? Cool. Jacko Brown Bear 72, thank you so much. Oh, BrownBear72, he's an English teacher. Mate of mine. Aliyah Hardesty, thank you so much. Shannon Wilson, Molly Ruiz, and Jessica Annette, thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:15:56 And Lauren, thank you for being part of the Patreon. Did you say and Lauren? And Lauren, yeah. Is that the same girl from the plane? What's her last name? I don't know. I think she's married now anyway. I actually, there's no Lauren here.
Starting point is 00:16:07 You just added that? I was doing it for a joke because you obviously privately told me that her name was Lauren during the break and I didn't think you'd acknowledge it. I just thought you'd be like, oh, my God, what are the chances? But, yeah, so the girl that Lauren fingered, that Ryan fingered on the plane is called Lauren. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:16:22 That actually didn't happen. It obviously did. Thank you so much. That actually didn't happen. It obviously did. I'm so embarrassed. I'm blushing. It didn't happen, but I'm so embarrassed. It obviously did happen. No one listened to Ryan. She was a lovely lady and so was her family. Alright. You made it so much worse. I know.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Get me out of this. Who's talking? Fuck, it's me. You need six boys to pull you out of this phone pit. Yeah, actually, it doesn't matter what happens. I don't have the most embarrassing story of the week. Thank you. Is there someone in your life who loves to share an inspirational quote, a business metaphor, a sporting analogy? And if so, would you consider that person useful, thoughtful, educational,
Starting point is 00:17:06 or are they a complete flog and really annoying and need to get a life? Because something I haven't admitted, and Tony brought this up when we were on the car trip to Sydney a few weeks ago. She goes, Ryan, you love an inspirational quote. You do. You love all that lame shit, and no one knows that about you. I really like it about you. Really?
Starting point is 00:17:28 Yeah, I've told you this. But don't you reckon some people, like, I don't want to be that guy on his high horse all the time. No. Telling people what he thinks, even though I say that all the time. You know what I mean? I do know what you mean. You know the flog I'm talking about?
Starting point is 00:17:39 Yes, I do. Probably a boss. Yeah. And it's always someone who, like, is very privileged in what they, like, have and do. and they're like, oh, well, if you want that, you've just got to climb to the top of the mountain and fucking whatever. We've all got 24 hours in a day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Like those kinds of people are always the ones that say that stuff and you're like, oh, it's obviously a very different situation for you to get to there than for me. If I can buy five houses by 21, anyone can do it. Yeah. Because if I dream it, I do it. Yeah. Thanks, Grandma, for the inheritance of $5 million.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Yeah, exactly right. So I love a good saying, though. Is she calling me out because last week I said good things happen outside of your comfort zone and you'd only said that to me that week and then everyone quoted me on Instagram? It's actually not. But thanks for bringing that up because fuck you. I felt so bad.
Starting point is 00:18:25 I've been saying that for years. I felt so bad. Okay, context, backstory. Last week or the week before in a podcast, I said, mate, nothing good happens in the comfort zone. The magic happens outside. Yeah. Then in our Facebook group, someone who's a realtor made that
Starting point is 00:18:44 into like an inspirational quote and like quoted me at the bottom. Tony Lodge, 2022. And I was so flattered. Like that's so fucking lovely. And people were sharing it and people were fucking posting it everywhere or whatever, and I felt really guilty because you had only just said that to me that week. I drew it.
Starting point is 00:19:00 I drew the circle. You drew it on a post-it note. And I was like, fuck, I feel really bad. That's actually Ryan's gear. Well, I got it from somewhere. Well, yeah, you didn't make it up. But, like, you'd only just said it to me, but then I, like, got the credit for it.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Is this you calling me out for that? No, but I'm glad you've self-called me out for that. Okay. Why do I do this to myself? Yeah. Say less. Literally, like, that's my inspirational quote for me. Say less.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Say less. Say less shit. Fuck, that's my inspirational quote for me. Say less. Say less. Say less shit. Fuck, that's so funny, though. Let's just call it a day. Yeah, go fuck yourself. One thing that I've been on my high horse about for a year, I reckon. Yep. And this, hey, welcome to Ryan's spiritual learnings.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Oh, if I can't have fact fucks. Wait. If I can't have fucked fact, you can't have Ryan's spiritual learnings. Oh, if I can't have fact facts. Wait. If I can't have fact fact, you can't have Ryan's spiritual learnings. If this goes well, people can say whether it can stay or not. Hang on. No. We talked about it last time and the people decided it was no good. No, people liked fact facts.
Starting point is 00:19:55 You said I couldn't have it. Okay. I changed my tune. If you accept that this is good. Thank you. Then it can stay. Okay. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Okay. Well, let me just do this one and we can move on with the last. Everyone get a pen and paper. Write this down. Oh, should I be writing down? No, you know this because I've pumped it into you as well as the saying. I was going to say. Don't self-reject.
Starting point is 00:20:17 You do say that a lot. Example. Yep. I used to work at the radio station Kiss. Like most sort of commercial radio stations, prizes, contests, guess the song, win the cash, you know, a lot of that sort of stuff. And this lady calls up and she's about to win $1,000. All she needs to do is like listen out for the Miley Cyrus song.
Starting point is 00:20:36 When you hear it, call me, win $1,000. A little peek behind the curtain. If you're good on the phone, they're going to give you the prize. They're going to give you the prize. Like if you want to win a radio contest, call up and go, hey, I'm so fucking pumped. I listen to Kiss every day. Oh, my God, thank you so much for taking the call.
Starting point is 00:20:54 How are you, mate? You're going to win. You'll win. People go, this person's got a vibe. Put them on air. Yeah. If you scream, you're going to win. All they're looking for is something that's going to sound good in a promo.
Starting point is 00:21:05 100%. And I hate to fucking call you. No, true. All they're looking for is something that's going to sound good in a promo. 100%. And I hate to fucking call you like that's what it is. What are you going to do with the money? Oh, I don't know yet. Well, I'm not going to put you through. I'm not going to put you through. What are you going to do with the money? Oh, I'll probably pay my rent.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Don't give a fuck. What are you going to do with the money? Oh, I'm going to buy a luxury handbag. I've always wanted one. You're fucking winning. I'm going out with the girls this week. I'm going to pay for everything. We're going to have cocktails.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Fucking put her on. Yeah. Oh, I got fingered on a plane by this guy that I then went to meet in St. Louis. You're winning. That happened to you. You did. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Oh, now I get it. Anyway, so this girl's on the phone. And she's about to win $1,000. Yeah, because you're like, she's lovely. She's great. Whatever. Puts through. Hey, how can I help you?
Starting point is 00:21:48 Give me a random name. Beverly. Beverly. Sorry. How can I help you, Beverly? And she goes, oh, I was calling because I heard the song and I wanted to win $1,000. But have I called too soon? I have called too soon.
Starting point is 00:21:59 I'm so sorry I've called too soon. Sorry to annoy you. Have a nice day. And hung up. Hangs up. And I just sat there stunned and was like, Beverly has just decided. That she's not getting. We didn't decide.
Starting point is 00:22:11 A thousand dollars. She essentially had a thousand dollars and just self-rejected. And maybe it's like she was too scared that I was going to say, you've called too early. So she wanted to say no first. First, yeah. Like me before. I said, say less. Say less, say less first. Yeah. Like me before, I said say less.
Starting point is 00:22:25 Say less, say less. Another example. Sorry about that, Bev. Sorry about that, Bev. Yeah. If there's a job ad that has 10 requirements, yep, two years in that, know how to use this program, blah, blah, blah, has a degree, men will apply for the job if they have six out of 10
Starting point is 00:22:43 and women will apply if they meet 10 out of 10. Yep. A hundred percent. So the woman looks at the list and goes, I only know eight out of those 10. I better not apply. And I say, it's the company's job to tell you you're not qualified. Why don't you just apply and see what happens? If they let you know, oh, you need a few more skills. Well, thanks. But you know what? Eight out of 10 would probably might get you there. Don't you self-reject. You let them reject. And I get it's tough because you don't want to be told no, right? Yeah, because you like have to psych yourself up to apply for a job and you want them to say yes,
Starting point is 00:23:18 obviously, because the reason you're applying for a job is because you need one or you really want to get out of your current job or you need more money. It's a big thing. Exactly. And so I think that you don't want to get out of your current job or you need more money. It's a promotion. It's a big thing. You know, and so I think that you don't want to get to the point where you are putting your – it's being vulnerable. Absolutely. Well, I think that's the underlying thing. It's the vulnerability because then, yeah, if you're not – Imagine you having eight out of ten not applying and some bloke applies.
Starting point is 00:23:39 He's got six out of ten and he gets the job. Oh, 100%. It happens every day. Don't self-reject. Wow. Don't self-reject. Wow. Don't self-reject. I'm here for it. I'll be your reference.
Starting point is 00:23:49 If you listen to this podcast, put me down as a reference. I actually put you down as a reference for something the other day. Are you applying for – where are you going? No, no, no. What? Tony is just – you're applying for a job. I just needed to give a personal reference to something and I put you down. Is that okay?
Starting point is 00:24:00 They needed your address and stuff. It was actually pretty involved. Personal – what was it? No, it's personal. If I get a call that's like, oh, Tony's applied for a full-time job in Japan. She's a podcast host. Is she good? I'll be like, if I say yes, are you going to hire her?
Starting point is 00:24:15 I would do that, actually. I could do both at the same time. I'll just be like, no, she's awful. I'm like, oh, she'll have to stay in her current role. Oh, no. So now we get to Tony Lodge, who, as we've just said, you know. What's going on? You don't want to.
Starting point is 00:24:30 What's going on? You don't want to feel rejected. What's going on? You don't like to put people out. You don't like to feel vulnerable. Is this true? What's going on? No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:24:43 You used to be an audio producer in Bunbury, a small town in Western Australia. Yeah. And you wanted to move to Melbourne eventually No, I don't. You used to be an audio producer in Bunbury, a small town in Western Australia. Yeah. And you wanted to move to Melbourne eventually and we both love the Jason PJ radio show. And you tell me if I'm wrong here, but as I paraphrase a bit of your backstory. Yep.
Starting point is 00:24:58 You're like, I want to work on that show because that show looks fun. Yep. Another job comes up in Sydney, but it's the same company, it's the same brand and you think, oh, I might not get to my dream job straight away, but if I get this other one, I'm a step closer. Well, I applied for the job at Jason PJ and didn't get it. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:15 And then they said, do you want this one instead? And I was like, oh, it's still way more money than what I'm on in Bunbury. It's Metro, which is like the big city, so that's why I took that job. And closer to the dream, right? Yeah, because I was like, it's more experience at is like the big city. So that's why I took that job. And closer to the dream, right? Yeah, because I was like it's more experience at what I might get to do. Yeah. I only took that job because I didn't get the other one. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Okay, great. Does that fuck your story? No, no, no. But then what happens six, eight months later? Six months later, the person that they hired instead of me quit. And in the meantime, you'd gone and proven yourself. And I was in Sydney, yeah, and the big boss, I marched into his office and I said,
Starting point is 00:25:48 you'd be crazy not to give me that job. So you've put your best foot forward and I love that. Yeah. And I love that. And DB, good mate of mine, he said, oh, you haven't been here for very long. And I said, you'd be crazy not to give me that job. I belong there.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Really? Yeah. I was in his office. Let me give you the flip side of that story that I heard on Friday night, which sounds a little bit different. So on Friday night when I was having a few beers with our mate Boz. Who hired me. Yes.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Who hired you. Yeah. So he hired you. Yeah. And he hears that, yep, he hired you to Sydney and done this and done that. And then you wanted to move to Melbourne. And I think he was a part of that because he's like a production guy and they all whatever.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Yeah. He calls you because he goes, yep, Tony's put her best foot forward. She's keen. She wants to do this. He calls you and says, I would like to offer you this job. And this is what Boz said to me. He calls you and goes, Tony, I would like to offer you this job. Yep. And there's nothing more, Tony, I would like to offer you this job. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:45 And there's nothing more Tony than your response. This sums up Tony, my mate Tony, better than anything else. Tony says to Boz, oh, you don't have to. And he goes, no, I'm calling you and I would like to offer you this job. Oh, you don't have to. If you don't want to, it's, I don't, you don't have to. If you don't want to, it's fine. Don't worry about it. It's all good.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Thanks though. Like, I don't want to put you out. And he said he had to ask. Okay, first of all, this sounds like a private HR matter that he shouldn't have told another employee. Well, I quit two weeks ago. So now once I've left, he's like, oh, no HR issues anymore. And he said he had to like, and this is the job you wanted,
Starting point is 00:27:27 by the way, but he had to like ask you and then tell you multiple times before you were willing to be like, oh, as long as it's okay, I don't mind. And I'm listening to this story like, she's self-rejecting. No, that did happen, but for the job in Sydney. Right, okay. But that did happen because I was like, are you fucking sure? Are you sure there's not a Tony with a Y? You were meant to call and not Tony with an I?
Starting point is 00:27:55 Yeah, that did absolutely happen. I heard that and I was like, bless her. And then you know what he said on Friday night? What? And I'm so proud of her now when I see her. I'm really happy for her. Look at her go. What?
Starting point is 00:28:10 Yeah. He said some really nice things. Oh, why were you talking about me? I don't know if you know this, but we have a podcast together. Yeah, we do. Oh, yeah. And I left working with him to do this podcast. To work with me.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Yeah. Oh, so that would naturally come up. Oh, so how's the new job? I won't talk about it. We don't talk about Tony. What do you want to know about Tony? What do you want? Well, I'm going to have to repeat this back to her later.
Starting point is 00:28:30 On the podcast. Oh, well, but in the end it worked out. Yeah. Obviously. But don't self-reject. But it did work out, but don't self-reject. Don't self-reject. Yeah, say less.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Give people a chance to accept that people are saying what they want to say. Yeah. People aren't just saying stuff. Let it happen. Like take people at their word. If they say, I want to hang out with you, if they say, I want to give you this job, if they say,
Starting point is 00:28:57 I want to do this thing with you, accept that they're making the right choice for them. Tony. Accept the love. Just accept it. Don't self-reject. Accept the love. And if they've made an empty offer and you take them up on it,
Starting point is 00:29:14 that's their fucking problem, not yours. Can we agree that inspirational quote Ryan will return? Yes. I love it. I was not expecting that, to be honest. Accept the yes. Yeah, you're like, accept everything. Can I do this segment again?
Starting point is 00:29:25 Fuck no. No. Ask me off air. She won't want to do this segment again. I won't ask her. All right, what did you love to see? Besides you getting pumped up from former bosses. Oh, yeah, I fucking love that, actually.
Starting point is 00:29:38 And this just makes me sound like a real shit guy. My love to see it is a TV show recommendation. Is it better than Hunted? That was a good recommendation. People are loving that, by the way. The finale just happened. I won't spoil it. Oh.
Starting point is 00:29:53 But just watch from the start. You've been live tweeting the show as well. I have. Which I am in two minds about. It's a new personality for me. Yeah, it is new. I don't know if it's one I like. It's not bad, but it's definitely different.
Starting point is 00:30:04 Yeah. It's called The Resort. It's on Stan. And I think it's a Peacock original. So you'd be able to watch it on the Peacock NBC thing overseas or whatever. But it's on Stan in Australia. It's called The Resort. It's got Kristen
Starting point is 00:30:19 Malotti, who's the mother from How I Met Your Mother. How I Met Your Mother. Ah, okay, right. Yeah, obviously she's like in the last season. And Chidi from The Good Place, you know. So real top tier talent. Oh. I don't think I know either of those two. I haven't seen the last season of How I Met Your Mother.
Starting point is 00:30:38 But don't be an arsehole about them being top tier talent. That's not Brad Pitt. What a shit thing to say. Yeah, that is a shit thing to say. What a shit thing to say. It is a shit thing to say. Yeah, that is a shit thing to say. What a shit thing to say. It is a shit thing to say. I just meant I hadn't heard of them. So you're the be all and end all of deciding this good stuff?
Starting point is 00:30:51 I haven't heard of anyone. Exactly. So why would that change the thing? I'm calling you out here. That was a shit thing to say. I'm taking it. It was a shit thing to say. But the show is really, really good.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Basically, the couple, they're going on their 10-year anniversary trip. They're kind of like maybe going to break up. They're like not really doing – Midlife crisis vibes? Yeah, they're like – you can tell they don't really like each other. They go quad biking like through the forest. She flips off the bike and finds a phone buried like in the ground and it turns out it's the phone of a kid who went missing like 10 years ago.
Starting point is 00:31:26 What the fuck? So it's like they then go on like sleuthing to figure out like what happened. The resort. It's so good. It's called The Resort. It's on Stan, not sponsored. Just a fucking awesome show.
Starting point is 00:31:36 At the moment there are like three episodes out. Torbs and I watched them on the weekend. Fucking awesome. Such a good show. That's a great recommendation for the weekend. That's your weekend watching. There you go. The Resort. Yeah. You know what I love to see?
Starting point is 00:31:48 Thanks to everyone who helped me with my university assignment in the Tony and Ryan Facebook group. You are fucking kidding me. I said, you know those... Luckily you're a top tier talent. We're allowed to talk about it on the podcast. I deserve that. I don't like it. But I deserve it. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:32:04 I posted in. Thank you. Yeah. I posted in the Facebook group. A fucking survey monkey fucking thing. Thanks. You know those annoying people that ask you to do a survey for the university study? Yes. I am now that person. And thank you to everyone who did my little survey about their travel,
Starting point is 00:32:22 because I'm going to use it for my assignment. It was very helpful. Thank you. But you know what I really love to see about this uni thing? What? This weekend on Sunday we have to do our presentation to the clients. Oh, I love that. I love public speaking. I love doing shit like that. Really? Yeah. Oh, I couldn't think of anything worse. Oh my god, I fucking love it.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Really? I'm in my element. Yeah, I fucking love it. Do you want to do the report? Yep. Oh no, I don't want to write anything but I'll do the talking. So there's six of us in the group assignment and usually like two or three will present. But I hosted a little focus group for the research. Yes. And then I said, oh, since I hosted the focus group,
Starting point is 00:32:55 I'd be more than happy to let someone else take the reins. That's fair, actually. That's totally fair. With the presentation. And I knew when I volunteered to do the focus group that that was my out. To then not have to do it. Yeah. That's smart.
Starting point is 00:33:10 And I think we mentioned this. I can be an introvert. When I'm at uni, I'm like, just keep to myself. And because you're a celebrity, obviously, it makes it more difficult as well. Who's being an arsehole now? Sorry. It's Friday. Often there's an assumption that, like,
Starting point is 00:33:26 the guy with a podcast and radio will, like, do the present. Oh, you're in radio. You're great. You can do the thing. Yeah. I'm terrified. The thing about this podcast is we can't see anyone. It's just the two of us in a room.
Starting point is 00:33:35 It's really easy. And then luckily the feedback's very positive. Yeah. And my love to see it is I'm loving that I got out of the presentation and I don't need to do it. Someone else, I'll just sit there in the corner and nod. I'll write up the report. I'll do the appendices and the references. I don't know how to do references.
Starting point is 00:33:52 See, I'd rather do the talking 100%. No, absolutely not. But smart out though, because the focus group, how chill. Because you're just like on Zoom. It's like, you know, whatever. That's very smart from you. Thank you. MBA educated. That's what you get. That's what I took out of it. I'm glad that you all love to say it's about uni and mine's about TV.
Starting point is 00:34:08 Really shows the parts of places in life we are. Well, you know what Tony and I are doing separately this weekend? What? We are watching TV and I'm going to uni. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. See how that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. Come back around. Come back around. We'll chat to you on Monday, exclusive on Spotify. Download the app over the weekend if you haven't already got it. And I can tell you.
Starting point is 00:34:30 It's free. People keep saying like, oh, my God, I don't want to pay for another app. It's free. You don't need a premium account to listen to a podcast on Spotify. Are you okay, mate? Oh, no, no. I'm just like excited because people just like don't know that it's free. Want to know a hot stat?
Starting point is 00:34:44 Always. I think we're about 60, almost to 70% we're on Spotify anyway. That's where most people are. Yep. And since we've said you've got a few weeks to move over, about 88% of people are now listening on Spotify already. Oh. So we're almost there.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Most people, so those people in between, most of them have free app, download it, follow Tony and Ryan. We'll come Monday. It won't be a choice. You it. Follow Tony and Ryan. We'll come Monday. It won't be a choice. You can only listen there. Or fucking enjoy the rest of your life. Love you so much. Love you.
