You didn't want to do the word for word thing like this. I realized like one word into the word for word that I didn't want to go word for word any longer. It made me really depressed.

Yeah, that's cool. I'm only just coming out of that funk now. Absolutely. And you don't want to be depressed in front of Jack Truus, who Jack Truus is here today. You do not want to be depressed in front of me. Yeah, I'll tell you that. Because he will ruin your life you that. He doesn't show any vulnerability when I'm around. It's what I always say. It could be because you're

a psychopath or it could be because you're an empath. I know we know. Well, the proof is in the violent stabbing and it's psychopath is the answer. But then again, he could be stabbing you out of empathy. Oh! Sympathy stab! Yeah! Well I said empathy. Alright, I could be like... That doesn't start with a letter S. I could be so good at stabbing that I'm...

I can do it in a way that it guarantees a near death experience that would give you new perspective on life. Oh wow. Yeah that's great. Yes. Like you'd be... You'd have probably a rough few days I may. I don't know how stabbing's go.

But then after that you'd be like, oh, I see I see the light now Well, I know how near death experiences go and I can imagine if a rough few days you're involved It's the minimum you can expect a rough few days. Yeah, so is that the first sketch is the guy who's like a the like a precision near killer? Well, okay, he attacks people to make their lives better. I near killer. Well, okay. He attacks people to make their lives better. I look I think that's fantastic if we can make that work. I like it. It makes me think of that movie flat line is where they like stop their own hearts so they can have they can be dead and then come back again. Whoa, which I think they're making. Yeah, but do they do that with a knife? No, say this is what's good. Yeah, that's right. So what he like he cuts all the you know You got to watch out for those major arteries. Yeah, but all the minor arteries he cuts all the all the ones out

Every single capillary. Yeah, yeah, like you know He's he can he can still hit the major ones, but he just hit it in such a way Sure like, you know, he's, he can, he can still hit the major ones, but he just hit it in such a way that it's, it's, it's he'll have I should realize that he's good enough to do that. Yeah, I was putting limitations on his ability, but really, he could cut your head off, but do it in such a way. Yeah. I, I imagine that this, this person is sort of like a, um, you know, that thing where maybe he's, he began his career as a surgeon,

and then he realized, you know, like, I'm, I could be helping people. I could use my skills to help people in a more meaningful way by sort of attacking strangers who I think look like the need help. I like to think that it's a team of people. It's like, you know, sort of like the magnificent seven. Yeah, okay. Right.

But they all come from different backgrounds of knife use. Right. So one was a surgeon. Right. But then he realized that saving people's lives was good. But the real heroic act is in almost taking people's lives. Yeah. Right.

And you, because then in a way, you're giving them a life, aren't you? Yeah, that's right. But like, if you could have killed someone and you don't kill them, you've given them a life. I think so. I think, I mean, they already had a life. Yes. But a life that they didn't think that they were going to lose. And now they realize that life is precious Yeah, you've given them like because everyone's always telling you you know everyone's gonna die only live once you got to

Appreciate it, but you know words are cheap. I always say you got to really let them know you got to use a knife You got to use it since words are cheap and knives can be expensive It's like when you lend your top awareware to somebody, and you're like, it's okay, you can take it. I don't need that piece of Tupperware, and then a couple of weeks later, you're like, fuck, I want that Tupperware back. And then when you eventually get the Tupperware back, it's a little bit red,

because they've been putting tomato-based sources in there. But the Tupperware is still good, still seals real nice. And you've got a whole new lease on Tupperware. I've been thinking about Tupperware a lot, but hang on, look, I wanted to go back to my thing where I was just talking about all the other guys with the background.

So one is a South American knife thrower. Sure, right. Another one is a person who does those display cooking things with special knives in like a supermarket. These are all knife based guys. These are all knife people. I already love that second guy. These are all knife based guys. These are all knife people. I already love that second guy. I love the knife display guy who I picture a whole universe

with that guy. He can have his whole own movie. Yeah, great. As far as I'm concerned. I think there will be spin-offs. I think there will be spin-offs after the original movie. You know, they kind of all come together too. That guy's sort of origin story could be like his obsession is showing the worth of knives like he's like

shut cuts or shoes and cuts through I don't know other knives that suck or what like he just showed all about showing that knives are valuable and he's finally done that in the the most extreme way he can imagine by allowing knives to give someone a new life. Yeah, and I think it's kind of interesting to think because you often, let's say you are sort of practicing your knife craft, which I think is one of the main first steps of let's say French cooking, right? It's all about learning to use the knife and things like that. But there's only so far that it takes you, right?

And I think once you get your skills to a certain level, there has got to be next levels. And I guess the highest levels that we know so far about is improving people's lives by almost killing them. That feels like that's probably the highest level. Yeah, I mean a lot of really, I mean what we're describing here is surgery because you know like you know when you almost kill people a lot I think during surgery and then the trick is not kill them. Unneeded, during surgery. And then the trick is not kill them. I need a elective surgery. But it's also un elective, because you're forcing it on people.

Sure. Compulsory. Unnecessary compulsory surgery. Random compulsory wait no. Yeah. I'm imagining this entire discussion of just had, but someone just like, you're on her. In my defense, what I was wanting to achieve here.

A new lease on life. I call my first witness, the victim, to tell you how good his life is now. What's that he's still in hospital? All right. I request an adjournment. Anyway, I'll say you, you, you wanted to tell us all the knife characters. You only got two in there. Yeah. You quoted the magnificent seven. Yeah as your reference point

So that's three so is it is two I think well no, I've got to I've got to three already I've got the the South American knife-frowing guy. Yeah, I would say that there's probably somebody who is the son of a Samurai sword maker who just makes kitchen knives, okay, great I would say there was one guy who is an English of a samurai sword maker who just makes kitchen knives. Okay, great. I would say there was one guy who is an English sort of ornamental butter knife person. Yeah. He's sort of like spreads and jams and.

Yeah, I call him the Toff. Yeah, I don't know, I don't get that, but I call him the crumpet. Yeah, really. So that's four. Yeah, I don't get that, but they call him the crumpet. So that's four. Yeah, I know that's five. I think Al's counting an extra one that we haven't. No, okay.

Original guys, the surgeon, just a original guy. Okay, you're counting. Yes, guy. Okay, non-specific man, hypothetical knife. Oh, bloke. He's never one. One's got a it's a he's a fisherman sort of guy so he comes from he's a he's the

full letter. And then of course there's the person who who's only real use of knives is to snort cocaine off of the tip of the blade. But he's the cool one. Yeah, he's the cool one. He's sort of like, this is a slight distraction, but I was thinking about the Supern, the Ninja Turtles recently, and so, Donatello is the... Why is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Yeah, okay. You know the Leonardo's the leader.

Donna tello is does machines. He's the instead of the inventor. He's the smart one. Michelangelo me too. That was my favorite one. Michelangelo is the party guy. Right. Raphael.

He's the depressed one. Is he the bad boy? Was he the bad boy? Or was he just Was he just sad? He was always walking out kind of like, I can't handle this. Moody. Yeah. I think he was just depressed.

He was the one with mental illness. In the song, I remember it, it did specifically reference Michelangelo's party, dude. Yeah, Michelangelo's a party,. Yeah, Michelangelo's a party dude And also they don't they never hung out with any other people. Yeah, so he like in a part like of all of them The party is only ever gonna involve them. I guess so yeah, maybe April Maybe splinters not getting involved. I don't know. What about Casey Jones He looked like he would have enjoyed parties Yeah, I think Casey would have been up for a party Was there when we were growing up?

Do you remember some kind of a Musical outfit they might have been Christian or rap But they refer to themselves as rap rock and soul There was some bit I just I have this this momentary vision of like a, they're saying, and together we make rap rock and soul. Was that a thing? Or is this just like another one of those obscure Christian television ads that only played in Tasmania because it's so cheap to buy television advertising down there? Well, if that is the case, it definitely means that it's still possible that it exists.

That's all that I'll hold on to that. Yeah, I just haven't seen it. So you think it's separate, disparate elements that combined make rap rock and soul? Well, I mean, they were three people, they introduced themselves in some way and they said, together we make rap rock and soul. And like maybe that was their different things that they brought to the group. So they're sort of like a rapping soul soul boy. Soul boy. Yeah. And so did they have different outfits? I mean I think it was filmed in black and white and I think they all just look generally cool.

I think it was filmed in black and white and I think they all just looked generally cool. Just sort of like most Christians. Yeah. Well, they might have had big crosses. I mean, big crosses are kind of like had a period in which they were cool. Did they? Yeah, I think amongst people.

I think big crosses like translated between people who lived a very Christian lifestyle. Yes. And also people who were sort of gangster rappers who did kill people and did deal drugs. So because Ironic those crosses. Also sort of claimed to have a deep love of God. Yeah, right.

Despite spitting in the face of everything that God intended for them. Well, I mean, how do we know what God intended? God's, God's, God's had some complicated messaging over the time. He's, he's had less than clear cut through when he's messaging. Yeah, I would say.

If he came back, do you think that he would sort of, he would point out sort of gang banging or something that he would be against? I think maybe that would, if he came back and he said that, it would feel like he had a real racist agenda. Yeah. Because that would be pointed towards a definite... If he came back and started referring a lot to street thugs like... Oh, you go, that's not good, God.

Trump has been... Yeah, when you're talking about all the issues in the world, if he came back and he, like, specifically kind of early 2000s hip hop like all right we're gonna sort this out like puff daddy 50 cent get out of here what are you guys doing don't like you guys if god came back do you think you could make a movie in which god comes back and it's his mission to clean up the streets and he's on and he does like one of those sort of the rock or like you know an old what's his name? Mel Gibson type movies, you know, Dwayne the Rock John's. Okay, right. Where he's you know he's he's had enough and he goes out, gets some guns or a bat or something and goes out and just bashes people. Oh man. And so he would be cleaning up the streets like with a bat or something and goes out and just bashes people. Oh man.

And so it would be cleaning up the streets with a bat. Yeah, with a bat. Well I guess his son was killed, right? And that was sort of, you know, that's a very sort of Liam Neeson take any kind of motivation for sort of revenge, I have an extremely broad set of skills, I am God. I can do literally anything at any time Yeah, but if you did it with a with a hammer Like as it is clearly revenge and this is gonna be brutal Like that I don't like I mean that would be the most violent movie you've ever seen yeah

Yeah, cuz he would have sort of like Everywhere and he's got a hammer. Yeah Fitching the how just how dangerous God is like he can do anything at any time He can flood the entire worth he can give famine Pestilance just instant genocide and he's got a hammer Now what I want to know is if God's everywhere at all times and he's attacking people with a hammer, is the hammer everywhere at all times or does he still have to sort of pass the hammer along to the other bit of himself that's in another region.

So like there's a bad guy here but God's using the hammer over there. Does he need to get the hammer to hear in order to be able to bash the guy that's here? I think in the movie it would give sort of Bruce Willis a sporting chance if there was only one hammer. Right. Okay. And you could follow sort of the tracking of the hammer. You know, you could say, yeah, if you followed like the destruction of the hammer, I mean, I think it would still move pretty fast. Yeah, yeah sure But sinners could keep track of you know, they're like the hammers appears to be in Russia at this point Yeah, it's making it's way across Europe to do some business and then get out get then hide yeah

Look, I'm gonna write it down. Yeah, sure. God cleans up with a hammer. God cleans up the streets. The hammer of God, a mighty, big hammer, God's hammer. Look. I mean, but like, how would you stop God? And that, first of all, I just, there's something I was gonna say before it,

but I don't think it's, it can be that link to it. But with when we were just saying, like let's say he did start going on about game bangers and things like that, the idea that maybe God could come back and that you would be disappointed in him. You know, like, you know, like, you sort of can be like a little bit with, say, some of those big atheist guys like docks and stuff like that. When they, they do a few things that are like, you know, I'm going to be like, it's a

bit sexist and you know, going, oh, that's a bit sexist and you're disappointed in you. Yeah. Well, I mean, I guess sort of strictly reading the Bible and a lot of the stuff that has been done in the name of God, it's quite possible to be disappointed with God already. Yeah. But I don't think I'm having to come back and sort of do anything.

Potentially if God came back and sort of do anything. Potentially if God came back and sort of disappointed people in the same way that sort of George Lucas did, where he created this thing that was just like pretty great, but then over time it became clear that the elements of the world that he thought were good, actually everyone thought was very bad. And the element said everyone enjoys, like he was just sort of doing out of necessity. Like, you know, so like let's say, it's like God doing a, you know, sort of like a new revamped version of the creation of it all. But he's like, okay, first of all, getting rid of the northern lights. Yeah, we're real, I don't know what I was thinking there. Right. But a lot more rats, love in these rats.

I didn't put enough rats in the first time. This is great. So God comes back and he's like, well, I'm back and I'm gonna fix all my mistakes. He's done fixing stuff and everyone's like, oh my God, this is wow. And then... He does not know what he's doing. Can we get JJ Abrams to take this over? Okay, so then the world turns on him and then that's when he starts attacking us with a hammer.

Oh yes. Yeah. You know? And they were like, we like this even less. So I think it's what George Lucas would have done, you know, as well as things. If George Lucas could have attacked the world with a hammer, you bet he would have. Yeah. He had a shot, so yeah, as well as things. If George Lucas could have attacked the world with a hand like Betty would have.

Yeah, he'd had a shot. So yeah, I think this kind of gives it, you know, to give it a fuller, you know, fuller idea that God came and he was ready for the third book and he was making the third level of changes, you know. Like with the second book, he brought in some compassion and things like that. And then with this third book, he's really bringing it.

He's really working on the rats and- Contained, yeah. This latest update contains bug fixes and repairs some security flaws in the earth. George Lucas didn't want it to be industrial light and magic. He wanted it originally to be industrial hammer. It was just one big hammer. But, anyway, they couldn't get a hammer. He went with light magic instead.

You look at the original screenplay. It's like the briefing, the rebels on how to destroy the Death Star. It's like there's this small thermal vent in it. I reckon if we can get in there with that hammer we could smash it to bits and the damn Hollywood big wigs destroyed his image lightsabers they were originally habits just two guys wailing on each other's habits dunk dunk dunk dunk this was your father's hammer. I really destroyed his hand with this hammer. Oh! Just, yeah, I think that was less clean. And maybe that's what the notes that he got when Darth Vader just matched Luke Skywalker's

hand with a hammer and it just laid their floppy. You know. It's just wapy and it was just laid there floppy, you know, like that. Wapy, it just, just awful. Just a bag, just a bag of flesh, almost unrecognized. Yeah, just like when you fill one of those like plastic washing gloves with water for fun sometimes, it's just that kind of floppy. It's almost like you fill it with like oatmeal.

Just to kind of give it a bit more texture. Oh, that's great. I don't know. Can we have a little note in there about like a hammer-based version of Star Wars? Yeah, I've seen documentaries about like the, you know, this big studio execs, like sort of, is that movie about Joderowski's Dune? I think I'm getting that in Kray, but it's like sort of revolutionary sci-fi director

who wanted to do this movie and then he kind of, his idea was too big and too far out or I feel like you could do a sketch that was that type of documentary, but it was just about someone who insisted that the movie be just about Hammer's and Hammer based violence. Does that mean that the Death Star is just a really big hammer? Well I don't know because then why would

you attack the hammer with a hammer? Well I mean maybe that's just your mindset. These are exactly the creative problems you're trying to overcome in the early drafts. Look I like it's still. What if it was just a collection of hammers? Wow. You know, it was just a ball of hammers. Ball of hammers? Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. Can I change the subject and talk about something that's been bothering me recently? Absolutely. The band name Leonard Skinnerd. I think my entire life, I'd sort of just vaguely assumed that that was a pun of some kind, right?

Sort of like the Beatles. And then you know, the Beatles was a pun? Yeah, which is a pun on beat. Be-e-a-t. And Beatles, be-e-e-T-L-E-S. Yeah, right. Okay, right. So I assumed Leonard Skinner was some kind of a joke or something.

And then recently I thought about it for like an extra second. I was like, there's nothing there, is there? As Leonard Skinner, is that a reference to something? There's a lot of wise. There's a lot of wise in there Yeah, but I like I think I'd sort of vaguely assumed it was Leonard something But Leonard's scattered I mean if it's a reference to Leonard's scattered, then that's great I apologize. I really I shouldn't have brought it up. Yeah, but I think I until recently Maybe maybe until five years ago thought it was just a guy called Leonard Skinnerd.

Right. Yeah, I didn't know that was a whole band name. Did you think he was a pun? No, I thought it was his name. Oh, right. It sounds almost like it could be like some of a southern name. He had a wellon, you know, or clementine. Leonard?

Leonard? Leonard? Leonard? I don't know anything about any of this, to be honest. Oh, look. But... I'm not very little. So I'm only just ahead of you. But just in case, you know, they did sweet home Alabama.

Oh, okay. Yeah, right. Just so that you had that... And that... Lynne skinned... Skinner. I think there's no third word. Okay. Yeah. But close. Yeah try again, but then I think I think all of the vowels in it are wise. Yes. Yes.

L Y and N Y R D. Skinner with the wise. It's K Y and N Y R D. Yeah. I assume. Look, this doesn't feel like it's a very fertile area for comedy, I just wanted to... But it was bothering you for a long time. It was bothering me for a long time. Well, could we take turn the sketch onto you so that where we're possibly, this is a thing that bothers somebody.

And could this affect their life in some negative way? Um, yeah, well, I mean, you know, Leonard's skin, Leonard's skinned, the band, a lot of their members did die in a plane crash, you know? Right. Because that's somehow be connected to it. Do you think the pilot was just like, is it a Leonard skinned, what are they,

and then just the, the bother caused by the pilot and distracted them? Yeah, you could have been, yeah, it could have bothered the plane out of the sky. Yeah, the guy who was flying the plane was actually trying to just almost kill everybody in the band. Yeah, wow, so that they could come to their senses and change and change their name to something less bothersome for everybody. Maybe he just thought it was when he heard the name, Linitz, and he thought it was just one guy.

He just thought it was a guy. Yeah. And so he didn't have enough fuel for the plane. Because it turned out there was a whole band. Yeah. Yeah. Look, that's not so crazy. Is there, do you think that's a sketch?

No, definitely not. Oh, it's a small sketch. You think that's this one. Oh Well, okay that I that if there is something that Look, maybe it could be if it sort of ties into and references that broader thing of like that, you know when There's a band right there's some some like foster the people, right? Yes, they had that song pumped up kicks some like foster the people right? Is that a band? Yes, they had that song pumped up kicks.

Right? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. That song, right? Foster the people and you say to somebody, oh, I really like that band and that person says, actually it's just one guy because foster the people is just one guy and that happens seems to happen a lot. And it goes both ways as well.

Yeah, yeah, through a tile. Oh, I really like him. Actually, that's the name of the band. Yeah, like what's Eskimo Joe? Is that a man named Joe or is that a band? I think it might be a band. Yeah. It's a band of people.

Yeah. So, so. Well, look, I think that's kind of what's happened to this, to this drive, the plane playing driver And but then within there there's also How you react when you when you see somebody famous and so they would have got on to the private plane Yeah private jet and he would have realized that it was more than one person right right But you don't want to look like an idiot no and like I think we're down playing the level of shock Like imagine if you were the plane driver

for Ed Sheeran, and you found that Ed Sheeran was like 10 people. Like, that's the level of shock. If you truly believe that's what Leonard Skinner was, that's how rattled you'd be. And there's a chance that he believed that Leonard Skinner was one person so badly that his brain didn't allow him to see the other people Yeah, the other people, you know, and so he just saw a guy. I assume he was wearing a big hat Yeah, I think Leonard Skinnerd even if the guy wasn't wearing a big hat

But Leonard Skinnerd sounds like a guy who wears a big bra primmed hat with long hair He does possibly tinted sunglasses. Is it possible that every member of this band is wearing the same lot? That's how broad this hat is. It circles the whole band. Wow. And it's one hand that has multiple like dimples in it. Yeah, yeah. It's all one brim.

One, but you can all put your heads into it. It's a long brim. Like one of those extended subway sandwiches you see promoted but never in real life. Sure sure. We've stretched out real long. Kind of like a tandem sombrero. Yeah. I'm the inventor of the tandem sombrero. You know, because it feels like a kind of band that's either one person or a group of

people all with long hair who wear a tandem sombrero. I think the idea of the tandem sombrero has to exist independent of all of this mess, all of this unpleasantness. If we could just let that float free and just I want to give that a lot. I feel like something in like that, the idea of that's the only way you can really prove that you love someone prove that you love someone is that you would share a tandem some rarer. And you see people in singular some rarers as being kind of a bit lonely and pathetic, but if you could combine, you and your loved one or just that just that walking in sequence

in a tandem some rarer. That scene in a movie where somebody's broken up, right? And they're feeling really lonely and they look around and everyone's holding hands or swinging together on a swing or going on a ferris wheel or whatever it is that people in love do. And then you see people walking along in a tandem sombrero.

You're like, ah, they could have been loved. We used to do that. I've put tandem sombros as another half sketch. Sure. I've also written down the Linnard-skinned crash as a sketch, because I think that it could also potentially be a series of sketches about famous deaths and how you could misinterpret that they had. I think though that this man who flies a plane,

who seems to suffer from totally faith-based delusions on random things, I don't think he's the ideal person to be flying a plane. Probably that should have been picked up earlier in the screening process, so that he didn't get to this point where he's flying private. I think just policy in the airline should be adapted so it's not, they don't fill up the

fuel of the plane based on sort of what he reckons abandoned. Yeah, and also just don't let him fly at all if he's just the kind of guy who just sees what he wants to see. Yeah, but maybe like back in those days the policy wasn't that good like you know They didn't have a strict policy for writing down how many passengers there was gonna be they would just write down the band or Single performers Yeah, yeah, and then you'd just guesstimate You know if it was the if it was the one you'd take only exactly and a fuel

For that quantity yeah for that quantity. Yeah. For that guesstimate. Yeah. Well, you know, you're not going to waste fuel. No. No, it's peak oil. It's probably happened during your time when there was a lot of buzz about peak oil. Yeah.

Which we don't talk about now. We don't talk about peak oil anymore. I think everyone would quite like that to be peak oil now, so that we could start using a bit less oil. But I like that in the way that people I see a lot of like kind of crappy news headlines will be like is this peak hipster where it means like like quintessentially hips that like oh this is peak oil. It's real slippery and flammable. That is peak oil right there. Well, that's also most oil, but I see what you're saying. Oil being the oiliest it can be. Yeah.

That's peak oil. I am. But peak, yeah, peak hipster would be like according to the proper definition of peak oil, peak hipster would be we've been using so much hipster that from this point on we're not going to have as much hipster. Sure, but we can go back to the other meaning of peak oil for just one second. Where I was thinking, there's a chance that if you had something that was peak oil, it could still not be oil.

So if there was something that was very slippery and extremely flammable, something like a bunch of really small round twigs. They could act like oil, because they're round and they're slippery like that. And then maybe pine needles, maybe like just too many pine needles that in one place would actually be more oily than actual oil. I don't have to be more oily alistair. Oh but like to be fair the flammability of pine needles does come

from oil. So I feel like oil still doing the heavy lifting here. Some of it's coming from the woodiness. Oh that's true. Yeah. If you had like a real soapy slip-in slide that you had made a track into a forest fire Yes, and you like zipped through the forest fire on the soaped up slip and slide would that be peak oil? Okay, wait, so there's a slip and slide that I've soaked up. Yeah, and it's going into your it's going right right into a bushfire. Yeah So wait, how is it peak oil? Oh, it's both slippery and flamm a bushfire. Yeah. So how is it, Picoel? Or it's both slippery and flammable. Of course.

Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's in two different ways. I guess you can have all the different parts of the oil. We've separated out the properties of the oil. Yeah. Sort of the opposite of getting together a whole lot of knife fighters. Yeah.

Got to part a whole lot of oil. And we've separated. It's different characteristics. Yeah, yeah I guess and then you could you could sort of part out other characteristics. So let's say you know like a like a soaked up slippery slide and a bush So those would sort of make up parts of the peak oil. Maybe something like that really peak oil, maybe something like that really... This episode is brought to you by Progressive. Most of you aren't just listening right now.

Discount is not available in all safe and situations. Eads with massaging of a back. Yeah, you know, let's say like a... A Barry White song. Like a Barry White song, exactly. And so we can construct something that is greater than actual oil using sort of many different things. Well, maybe if we did use up all the oil in the world,

we could still recreate the experience of oil. Yeah. Four people in a very realistic way. You could go to an oil museum where you've maybe got like a boom box that the wiring is real bad, so it's spuck enough everywhere. And it's playing a very white song, but it's also been really soaked up real good. Yeah, it's real, real soapy, real detergenty, boom box. Yeah.

And you're like, wow, I mean, this, we obviously, we don't have any samples of oil and we can't. We can't recreate it. This is the closest we can get to what it would have been like to see some oil. To experience some oil. I like the idea as well. It's like maybe there's, it's people and they're trying to prepare

for the future, you know, these, these futurists and they, one of the obvious real problems for the earth is that we can run out of oil. But the way, the thing that they're concerned about is children of the future, not being able to experience oil. Yeah, nothing to do with resources or powering things. We just, how do we get people to know the sensation of oil? Look, there's no reason why this isn't a whole museum of lost things that we've used up, you know,

because at some point, it'll also be, you know, we don't have any more floppy disk drives. Yes, we won't have any more pandabares. We don't want any more pandabares. And so you could recreate all of those experiences using sort of every day either household items or just things that you've actually got, you know, you're sort of I think I think this is yeah, I think this is really fun Heston Blumenthal the chef does that thing where he like will recreate like an egg, right?

But he recreates it out of You know sweets. Yeah, you know, sweets. Yeah. Or, you know, he'll turn one food, one genre of food into another genre of food. So it looks like one thing and it tastes like a completely other thing. But there's a sort of, there's an element of that to this that we are.

Yeah. But it's more sort of conceptual, because you're just trying to convey an experience. So why limit that to food? You know why? You know you could you could have it for things that you look at, you could have it things for it that you sort of touch with your tongue like the tip of a battery when they don't be things like that like you know you will never have to put your tongue in the end of a battery which I've never done because it always everybody always goes ah

and you do that and so that's the thing you meant to do it apparently less how you checked if it's still got some charge in it but that only works with nine volt batteries as well unless you can get your tongue around both ends of it. Oh yes that's right. Yeah. And you got a real real thing going on. Gene Simmons could do that. I bet he could yeah, he could test a lot of batteries Now Jean Simmons is that one man or is that multiple man? We don't know how many battery testers are we talking about here? He's actually one man, but then there's another man inside his tongue

Wow That's that's how he inside his tongue. Wow. That's how he got his hair like that was licking batteries. I don't know what his hair is like. You may need it, but I assume it's like what you would assume that somebody who licks a lot of batteries is hair as like. Yeah, you're visualizing what a battery licker's hair could be. A battery licker.

Gene Simmonsy. I'd like to live in a world where battery liquor was an insult. I think we could create that world. As in sketch form? Yes. Why not? Or like actually change the current world that we live in. Insults have got to come from somewhere.

Yeah. There's a person who comes up with every insult first. And a lot of insults, like they're what they come from, is not a bad thing. Like if you, like bastard is an insult, but it's also not a bad thing in society, no? And I think it was when it was became an insult, though. I, yeah, but I feel like could the same not,

I imagine in the early days of batteries, looking them would be a very bad thing before they'd figured out all the necessary safety procedure. I feel like on one of the earlier batteries, if you looked at you were in big trouble. But also when they came up with batteries, they were new, they were like, sort of almost the opposite of peak battery.

Like there was, it was very minimum batteries, right? It was trot battery. And so the opposite of peak battery. There was very minimum batteries. It was trot battery. The kind of person who had this amazing new technology of a battery and what they chose to do with it was lick it. That would be an insult because they're just a very wasteful person who doesn't respect technology and science. It would be like if Elon Musk made this like, what is it, this hyperloop, but he made it only to lick it, and then that was it.

I never transported anyone across America, it just gave it a good lick. I thought we were going with that, was that the building that huge battery storage in South Australia, with a test loop. Oh, that's what I've been going with. Yeah, changes to that. Like, when they build that, they're like, are now just to test it? What is it like 500 gigawatt or something? Yeah, it's good. Is that, is that, that's like at the at the at the opening ceremony instead of like cutting a

ribbon or whatever it is, Elon's just going to lick the terminal and opening ceremony instead like cutting a ribbon. Yeah, whatever it is Elon's just gonna lick the terminal and He went with a roll The press snapping So like what they've just got like an anode and a cathode and maybe one of them maybe they hold hands and one licks the anode and one licks the cathode Well, maybe one of them, maybe they hold hands and one licks the anode and one licks the cathode at the same time. I know, but it is nice the idea of just picturing one person put it both on their tongue. You wrote, this is a sentence, simplicity to that. Yeah, and then they take turns and so then you know that he's got Elon's, Elon's germs on there. Yeah.

Is that a sketch? Yeah, I think launching the world's biggest battery storage and licking it, like it's not working, or maybe it doesn't work straight away or something, you're like, you should lick it to test it and they lick it. And then I don't know what are they die? They evaporate? I mean that almost feels too, too graphic. I think they kinda just go, ah! Yeah.

Oh, no, it's good. Yep, yep, good. Thumbs up. Yeah, it's good. And then everyone wants to lick it. Yeah. It becomes one of Adelaide's bigger tourism attractions. Yeah.

The city of churches and lick this bloody battery right here. But then it fails to solve their power crisis because instead of using it for what it's supposed to be useful, it's just a bunch of battery lickers down there. And they're all, they're all like, curing up to have a lick. But I think it could do for South Australia what Mona did for Tasmania.

Yeah. And so, finally, it's good that it brings a new type of person down to. If you're an internationalist, Mona is a Tasmanian museum. It's very confrontational, very interesting art, private museum. And J Weatherall is the premier of South Australia. And South Australia is the bottom middle of South Australia, which is not the southern most bit of Australia.

It's bits of New South Wales, most of all of Victoria and Tasmania, and there's quite a lot of Western Australia as well as further South than South Australia. Would you say that as South Australia is sort of like Australia's new Mexico, maybe like an, you know, like, Adelaide is like an Aralbacurkey? Yeah. Sure. And what about like-

It's sort of like our center of gravity, I mean, I think. I mean, yeah. I think- I mean, yeah. I think it's our center of gravity. Like, if you span Australia, I think we would probably pivot around. Yeah. If Australia was a fidget spinner, you'd be holding bloody South Australia with

your your thumb and forefinger so you'd probably you'd probably hold airs rock yeah probably yeah and he still calls it airs rock so I'm so sorry I love that anyway do you love it I really like it you're always explorer it was like a Freudian slip. Yeah, that's okay. We know what you really believe. I feel like this could be one of those, like viral social media things.

Like if nations were a fidget spinner, where would you grab it? Where would you grab it? Where would you be grabbing it? And would it be insulting to save a luru? Like that you would grab it on a luru and then you go, well that's a sacred rock. Yeah, well, okay.

Yeah. All right, let me. I think there's another mountain. It's quite similar to a luru, not too far away. Maybe we grab it by the devil's marbles. That sounds pretty good, doesn't it? That sounds really good. Yeah.

Maybe you could just grab it over like that. What's that salt lake? Lake air. Lake air. Salt Lake, yeah. Yeah, that's what? Like air. Like air. Salt like air. Yeah. Yeah. That's what you want. Get a real good grip. Yeah, but smooth as well. Yeah. Exactly. It's like you chalked it up like the end of a pool queue. Like the end of a gymnast. Yeah. Where would you grab a gymnast if you were going to spin them around like a fidget spinner? Belly button? Belly button. Yes. Yeah.

Or I can, I can belly button. Or like if you were actually gonna spin a gymnast, like a fidget spinner, but you had to do it with your hands. Yes. How would you do it? Would you grab them, let's say like, at the round the belly and back, like that,

and then sort of move your arms backwards and forwards and kind of try to pivot them around that point. I feel like a gymnast is a very good example because they're one of the few people who could contort their body in a way that was quite similar to a fidget spinner. They could get this sort of try... I think shaped there. But the problem is, I'll say, like you're asking us this, like it's a serious question, but your arms would have to be so long to be out of the way of their legs. A lot of the, a lot of gymnasts are quite short.

They're quite short and I guess they could fold themselves, right? I reckon if you got a very little gymnast and then maybe a basketball player, we could make this happen. Yeah. Well then we should invent a human fidget spinner, like panel thing that's got bearings on it.

We'll strap it around. You could just use a lazy Susan. A couple of lazy Susan. I guess a couple of shirts that have lazy Susan's sewn into them. Sewing into them. Maybe on the other side of the lazy Susan, there's sort of gloves. Like gloves that are sewn into that panel. So then you could sort of hold them out and then just spin them

um i think this is this is this is oh my god i just came up with a name i just came up with a name but it's not good midget spinner i'm so sorry i'm so sorry i mean that took the heat of my ears rock yeah i was gonna say oh dear okay let's not call it that but but just know that the model that some Chinese company steals from us at some point is gonna take that very obvious The Chinese steel idea. I think the fidget spinner idea was stolen like you know like a lot of those kind of Money-raising things that was that crowdfunding type of. Some people steal it and then just crowdfund it themselves. That's a great. I mean, that's how capitalism is supposed to work.

You're not supposed to have to write around to like raise money from your friends and stuff. I have a lot of ideas that I would absolutely be fine with the Chinese stealing. Yeah. Because I think the good thing about creating things is having them exist. Yes.

And the bad thing about creating things is doing any work. Yep. I feel like if I could just have the idea part, and then have it stolen from me. And then maybe history later on goes, oh, but Jack came up with it. And then I can go, yeah, thanks.

Yeah, the problem might be that nobody wants to steal your idea, right? No, be quite depressing. Hmm, you know, like if it's not stealable, there'll be some sort of version of Kickstarter where you... The only way that you would know that though is if you knew that everybody had seen it, because there's a chance that the only reason people aren't stealing your ideas is because they don't see it and they don't get access to them. I think that that's one of the main reasons why my tweets don't get retweeted is because

not enough people are seeing them. If Twitter had a function where it showed you tweets to every single person who used Twitter, I reckon I'd get more retweets. I don't think you'd need the retweets though, LSD. You would have already been seen by everyone's Twitter. I reckon I'd get more retweets. I don't think you'd need the retweets though, Alice. Yeah. I would have already been seen by everyone on Twitter, like what would be the point in them retweeting it? Validation. Listen up Chinese Internet thieves. Here's an idea I'm pitching. It's Twitter. But everyone sees everyone's tweet and no one has the option to follow anyone or be followed Yeah, I call it the night. There's no and it's free to download on iTunes

No, it's compulsory to download on iTunes. Everyone has it now. It's like that. Your phone is always open to it. Yeah, that's yeah Look, we do have enough ideas. We've got so many ideas. Do you want to take us through them? I'll take us through. We got the near killer, which is a man, but then also later on we'll find out it's seven men or women or other, all with different knife based skills. Knife-based skills, right? And, you know, we named him earlier, go back early if you want to see it, but one South American he throw knives, not that I'm saying that South Americans are knife-throwers, but this particular one, Daddy, comes from the streets of Brazil.

But I know that. I think, could we have also one guy on the team who's like Sean Beans character in Ronan who's like talked his way onto the team, tells everyone that he's a big knife guy, but then it's revealed that he actually knows nothing about knives. He only knows about forks or something like that. He's been trying to get by. He only knows about spoons. He's a spoon man.

I think there's a lot of like those type of like, um, that style like magnificent seven sort of thing Whether it be one of them who, you know, he's he actually has lost his nerve because he actually killed so many people before Where maybe this guy he doesn't want to dare Almost kill someone because last time he tried to almost kill someone he didn't affect them at all in any way Irra didn't have any revel them at all in any way. You're right, they didn't have any revelations at all. They were just a bit scared, because I got him out of with a knife.

They just developed PTSD, which in a way is a revelation. Revelation that you never safe. And then also, I've got written down here that it's called random unnecessary surgery. It's good. Great. And then we got, God cleans up the streets with a hammer. It's really like this one alone. I'm just going to say random unnecessary surgery could be a really appalling reality TV show.

Like in the vein of like those ones that are set in a hospital like 24 hours in the Royal Albert Hospital or whatever. Yeah. But this one's random unnecessary surgery and it's people who don't want this done. They have like those ones that are set in a hospital like 24 hours in the royal hour, but hospital order. But this one's random unnecessary surgery and it's people who don't want this done. No, absolutely. I think that's good. Random unnecessary. So, somebody brings them in.

Yeah, will they come to you? That's good. Yeah, or they just wake up and they're in there. There you go. Sorry to be rude. I don't know if there could be an point or if you want to keep rolling, but I need to pee so bad. That's okay. I'll go through God cleans up the streets. Yeah, we'll keep talking. Yeah, I'll come back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sure you won't miss

too much. We'll be back in time to tell us which ones ants would like. Yeah. God cleans up the streets with a hammer and so he'd returned with a third book and some new changes for Earth And so he's kind of just trying to like implement these changes for some reason and evolves that he turns on that He really loved rats Yeah, and he was trying to push that a little bit more so to make every city a bit more like New York City. He thinks When he made word earthworms he meant to make a whole lot more leeches He really wanted all of whole lot more leeches. He really wanted all of those to be leeches as well. He sort of got rid of all the categories of invertebrates

and just made leeches. So these kinds of things. So the people of earth decide that they're quite disappointed with these new changes. They don't like it and they completely turn on God. he didn't want there to be any oceans. He actually wanted it all to be land so he takes away all the ocean. He just puts quick sand. Yes. And then so yeah, so then God gets angry at everybody being disappointed with them and then he cleans up the streets with a hammer because that's what we killed his son with. That's how you-

In a way, we did, yeah. Yeah. You know, God, I mean, Jesus would have been able to run away from the cross. Where it not for that. The hammer, you know. A lot of people blame the Romans, but God- Really?

The flames, I mean, if God came back and he killed blame the Romans, but God... Really? ...games the... I mean, if God came back and He killed everybody with Romans, that would be crazy too. Anyway, we got half a sketch here, which is a hammer-based version of Star Wars, which is just, I guess, it could be just a sketch where it's an alternate universe or it's a behind the scenes on the making of Star Wars and they show how much George Lucas fought for everything that all the lightsabers all to all be hammers rather than lightsabers and that he lost in that Indeed, yeah, and then we got the other one which is just another half sketch which is just about the tandem some braira

Oh, yeah, yeah, I. I'm really keen for this. I feel like we could even make a tandem sombrero quite easily. I think you get two sombreras, right? Mm-hmm. Stick them together. Yeah. You sew them down the brim. Oh, I know, but if you, it would be great to see like a five, a five tip.

A five way. Yeah, five way sombrero. Great. Like, arranged in a line or in a circle I picked through it in a line, but I mean it could be it could be and like you could set it up a Pentagon sort of you could do a Pentagon. I was thinking maybe like you could set up like billiard balls like a triangle And so you walk set it like a flying V information Yeah, maybe it's then yeah, you know, I guess if you were going into battle. Yeah

Which I don't know how practical it would be in that but still yeah, you know, but it's just one way that you could You don't need to do as much marching to practice marching and staying in line with each other. Yeah, right. Oh yeah You know with you and Lux it in yeah Anyway, there could be one that's weaponized, so like odd job had, you know, in those, in those, the James Bond movies. But he just wears a bigger hat with that has could, has more people that could be wearing it. I guess because that would be also statement

wearing a tandem sombrero when you're just a single person. Wow. Yeah, I mean, a statement that is, I'm so sad. Yeah, but I mean, like let's say it was all in one line. You could picture it kind of going down your back sort of like the back of like a stegosaurus. Yeah, you know, it could be a cool kind of fashion statement. I think in the, maybe in the future when the sun is so hot and the streets are baking Instead of taxi drivers will just have people who walk around You know tandem sombrero and then you know they'll come to your door and then you can step out and join them

In under the sombrero as you walk to another location. Yeah, like like a bus for pedestrians. Yeah. Yeah the location. Yeah. Like a bus for pedestrians. Yeah. Yeah. We got littered, skinned crash was caused by the strong belief that the band was one man. I'm amazed we got anything out of that fucking terrible suggestion from me, but that could be the worst sketch we've ever come up with. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, than one person. It can't sound like it is one person. And if your band is one person, it cannot sound like it's more than one person. Yeah, because there's a lot of, there's a lot of incidents with my favorite band, the mountain goats, where the mountain goats is one person. But they're not always one person. Not always, but the mountain goats early stuff is one man. Really? And then other men were added to play bass guitar and drums and saxophone over

the years. But there's a lot of songs that will be like, you know, you look on YouTube, like mountain goats and then this name of track. And then it's just a guy. See, this is really hitting home. There is on the plane way too much fuel. They've wasted so much money on fuel, assuming there'd be several mountain goats. Yeah, he's done it real, like not only is it a word, you know, that is like, that doesn't specify sort of anything, but it's also a plural, right?

Like you could call a band mountain goat, right? And I'd still probably think that was multiple people, but you could call a band mountain goat, right? And I'd still probably think that was multiple people, but yeah, the mountain goats The mountain goats. Yeah, all of them all the goats. I mean is who me? I've written that down as a sketch. It's a guy who's trying to get this law passed. Yeah, yeah It could be related to the littered skinned crash. Yeah. I think that this law is like, this is maybe in parliament, like they've got some big reform that they're trying to like maybe, you know, passing marriage equality, but they can't get to it because they've got to sort this yet issue at first. Yeah, yeah.

And I think maybe instead of the linen skinned crash, because I feel like a crash where people died is a good reason that you should try and have law form. I think it's more back to you as saying earlier Andy of just being sick of looking a bit dumb sometimes when you assume it's the wrong one. And that's why you're trying to get the low pass. Yeah, but that's the main drive of it. Yeah, definitely the main drive. But death is always very helpful in passing laws. always very helpful in passing laws. We got a recreating oil using other objects, like a soaked up boom box on fire.

And so this is like a museum where objects that no longer exist can be written about in a second museum, but for objects that no longer exist. And so they don't have the objects themselves. We didn't save any oil for the future that we could put into a museum. But you have a museum that would just have some oil in it. You would go to experience the oil. But you can go experience what oil was like by touching this soapy boombox that's on fire.

It's playing Barry White. Yeah, it's playing Barry White. It was because it was something that helps lubricate a massage. I think that's really great. Launching the world's biggest battery storage by licking it with your tongue. And so that's about South Australia, that's when they're gonna have Elon Musk who's setting up the biggest battery.

We got this fidget spinner for humans. Right. I think it's kind of like in the end, it has to be a story about the people that just want to achieve this. Yeah. You know, it's a character piece about the odd balls. Well, maybe because we were talking about the original idea was stolen.

So maybe it's someone claiming their original idea was stolen, but their original idea was this nightmare bullshit where they're like, you get someone real little, then you get a basketball player and you strap a lazy Susan to them and it's just this total mess and then someone else invented the little fidget spinner. They've got a stolen my idea. And I was spinning a thing around. Yeah, I think I liked that you could see a scene of him trying to present it to like a shark tank type.

Yeah. And he's just got like, he's got his son or his daughter and he's just trying to like a shark tank type. Yeah. And he's just got his son or his daughter, and he's just trying to spin him, and they're going, he's just somehow supposed to be relieved stress. Yeah. Yeah. Helps with anxiety. Come on. Tuck your head.

Tuck your head, Sandra. Don't kick my face. Did you do any of those core exercises I told you about no? Look like it look more make it make your leg look like a circle Like one of those fidget spinners Yeah, and so and then I've got the the man passes law where a a band they've can't sound like a person and or sound like a person can sound like a band. Now I'm sorry to say, I've looking back on all of that counting of a single sketch that

ants would like. I was thinking that a bit, yeah, I mean what would ants think of a soaked up boom box on fire? Because I don't know what I think about that. Yeah. I think they'd probably avoid it. Well, I think that there's a chance that, do you think the bassy tone of Barry White would just sort of attract them? Because they're on the ground and just the rhythms would be interesting.

I think the near killers that would probably leave a lot of random blood falling on the ground and that would maybe attract ants. I don't know if dead bodies attract ants. I think ants would eat meat. I don't think they're too picky about that kind of stuff. I think they could take it or leave it to be honest. Yeah, or if one of the bodies had a snickers in its pocket. Well, hello.

Now you've got answer to you. Also I'd like to say at this point I feel like a lot of why you sometimes review whether or not ants would like it. It may be a bit of my doing because I- It's entirely your doing it. I am I doing because I listen there was one time you did it by chance and I requested the the irregular segment and I want to say on on behalf of the the listeners, it's not, I don't think whether or not ants like it is a judge of the quality of the sketch. I just think listeners need to know. So even if none of them ants would like, I think it's important to those listening that they know whether or not they would. Yeah. It's about openness rather than it's not a

representation of quality. No, absolutely. And look, don't get me wrong. Like the ants not liking these sketches is not because they're not bad sketches. They're just not to their particular taste. I think the ants would tell us that as well. Yeah, yeah. You know, they'd think I'd like to have a little attention on the whole of the world.

Or at least touch our antennae and sort of give us a general gist of whether or not. I guess in that regard, if they touch sort of antennae and just get a general gist, they probably wouldn't mind the sort of the people touching the tongue and getting a little Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. That is that is probably the closest in a sensory experience that we come to what it's like to be an ant. Yeah. And if we're thinking, as well, if we're thinking that the the amount of sort of a loose blood on the ground with these almost killers would answer like that.

Surely to the same extent they would really love God cleaning up the streets with a hammer. The amount of loose blood in the streets then would be, the answer would absolutely go wild for that. I mean, maybe one of the things that God wants more of his ants. Yeah. Just all over. I like that. I like that more. No, there was supposed to be in your sandwiches.
