Welcome to Who Knew With Matt Shoe, the show where the guests write the wrong answers.
I'm the titular Matt Shoe and our first guest is back with a brand new season of their podcast.
Starting the worst is Claire Hooper.
It was me.
He was announcing me.
Hi, thank you so much for having me back.
Is it season two?
Season three.
Season three. What? Yeah. Time flies. They're pretty short seasons to be fair and then I don't
really take a very long break because I get excited and then I come back again
really quickly. Who's some of the guests you've got coming up season three? Oh great thank you for
asking usually I like to tease it and keep it a secret which is extremely bad
promotion. No no no keep it a secret. Look just give us their
initials. I mean we can guess. I've got Charlie Pickering coming up, I've got the lovely
Anisa Nandala, I've got Jante Blair although Jante's cancelled on me before. So will I.
That one's not in the hasn't been recorded as yet. No no
I haven't got it in the tank. I've got lovely Sarah Roberts on and I don't know
if you know her. She's from like home and away and neighbors. What's she doing on
the pod? She's such a good chap. The big double. Yeah imagine being on both of
Australia's most successful soaps. Not many do, I think Guy Pearce might have maybe done that. Maybe, probably. Not many.
I don't know.
But I'll tell you what, I also am crossing my fingers
that I will have an episode very shortly
with one, Han Arbuthnot.
Oh my gosh.
Oh, that's interesting that you brought them up.
Because our second guest this week performed their show,
How to Shave Across Australia this year,
it's Hannah Arbuthnot.
Hello, hello.
And did you just, don't pretend Claire's not in the room,
but did you just try to record an episode of The Worst?
Of The Worst.
Yeah.
And did you find out that The Worst was actually
about Claire's recording abilities?
Yes.
Yeah.
I'm just gonna keep trying guys.
Yeah, I was probably the best I've ever been and no one will know about it.
Such a good chat.
Yeah, just didn't manage to record that episode but we'll give it another crack.
We're going to give it.
What a great draw run.
Yeah it was a good dress rehearsal
It was also did you perform your show across Australia?
I don't know if you noticed but when Matt said that I did like a little bit like
And Melbourne, that's it
I mean is that not across Australia? It is sideways. It's not up and down. It's across
Is that not across Australia? It is sideways.
It is sideways.
It's not up and down.
It's across.
I'll make it, I'm bringing it up and why are you bringing it back down again?
I know how rude of me.
After I let a hand down so bitterly today to them.
The vast majority of the audience don't know about your exact touring schedule.
Well I found out today that I've never been anywhere ever.
Except for Ballarat and Adelaide.
Across Australia. I've been around Victoria a little bit. That's it.
But Adelaide is the only other state I've ever been to.
And well it shows because it's not even a state, it's a city. But you know what?
Our third guest this week is from the Do Go On and Booktube podcast. It's Dave Waterkey.
Hello fresh from my tour across the universe. It is a bit like how America talks about you know the the Miss Universe
pageant or the World Series in baseball. I think you just go big why not.
Yeah go huge. World tour of Melbourne and Adelaide. Yeah did my show in Melbourne and Adelaide. Yeah that was it.
Thank you so much for joining us everyone.
Han, this is your first time on the show.
I'll explain to you how it works.
Thank you.
I'll ask a relatively obscure trivia question
and you three have to write a convincing fake answer
and then read your answers as well as the real one
and then you have to guess which one is correct.
And the first question comes from, listen,
Emily from Lobethol in South Australia.
And Emily's question is, what is the meaning of the following Croatian insult?
Just quickly, do any of you speak Croatian?
Would I tell you if I did?
Oh, good point.
I'm going to have my best guess at it because the D has a cross through it.
And I don't know what that means, but Emily's given me phonetic pronunciation.
The insult is, rogen si iz guz itza.
Rogen si iz guz itza.
How many word breaks in there?
That's four words.
I thought I detected four words.
Yeah, the guzica is one word, but I made it sound like it could have been three or
seven or...
Can I get it one more time?
Rogin si is guzica.
So it's a Croatian insult. And while you're writing the English translations
of that, I'll let the listeners know. Should follow us on social media.
Who Knew It Pod started putting up little clips. We're recording this episode
right now and if I get around to it I will edit out a little clip and put it
up on the social medias. Who knew it pod? That's on
Instagram, Facebook, etc. And hey look why don't I tell you how the scoring
works. You get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other
contestants and another point if you correctly guess the answer. And by the way
I'm also playing as the house and I've put into a moment fake answers for each
question. I get a point for each one of these our guests choose. So each of us
can score up to three points per round which seems fair but the probability
actually favors me the house and the house sometimes wins and because of this
sort of unfair advantage I now give triple points to the contestants where
the house only gets single points in the final round and so really I think the
you know the odds are actually back in your favor. I'm gonna smash ya. Yeah I know
you've brought in a pretty aggro energy actually. Did you punch that you punch
in the wall in the way? Yeah I did. I'm a real boy. Anyway our questions cover our great Patreon supporters and if you want to submit a
question sign up on any level via patreon.com slash togonpod,
which is linked in the show notes.
All right, whoa, the answers are in.
Here is question number one.
What is the meaning of the following Croatian insult?
Rogin C is guzica.
Fall on your own vomit.
May your children walk backwards
and buy rear view mirrors for their whole lives.
You were born out of an arse. You smell worse than a damp horse. A street dog should bathe
after being patted by you. Wow. Or you're nothing but a gooey little zit boy.
Dave, do you want to have a first crack there? I'd love to. I'd love a quick recap please.
Okay. And direct them all to me. Okay. Are you ready for that kind of aggression? So early in
the game? Dave I wish you would just fall on your own vomit Dave, may your children walk backwards and buy rear view mirrors for their whole lives.
Oh, wow.
And I hope they're expensive ones as well.
Oh, Dave, you were born out of an ass.
Spell word double S, why can't, you were born out of an ass.
Okay.
Oh, you prefer the UK spelling of ARSE as well.
I'm so obsessed in that way.
More natural to say as well.
But they could be referencing a donkey there too. Oh, that's true. You're born out of a donkey. I quite like ass. Although I've started getting into the bad habit or the habit of saying badass. Yeah. I think it's maybe just a funny way of saying it. That's because you are one. Yeah yeah yeah. You're allowed to say it., Dave, you smell worse than a damp horse
But that one hurt
I think they smell all right a straight dog should bathe after being patted by you
Wow, or you're nothing but a gooey little zit boy. Oh man that one rang the truce
I think someone in this room wrote that whilst looking at me, but I don't think it's the
Croatian one.
I'm going for the horse.
Sorry, not the horse, the street dog.
Street dog.
Street dog, yeah.
Okay, looking at him for Dave.
What do you think, Han?
Can you tell me the horse one once more?
But to Dave.
Look me in the eye, Han, you know that's the one that hurt me the horse one once more, but to Dave. Look me in the eye, and you know that's one that hurt me the most.
Please.
Dave, you smell worse than a damp horse.
I'm sold on horse.
Are you?
For I think that I like the born out of an asshole one.
That is a fantastic insult.
A born out of an ass.
I think it's a really good insult. And when you think about it, it's the whole thing is only fantastic insult. A born out of an ass.
I think it's a really good insult.
And when you think about it,
the whole thing is only four words
and that's nice and short.
Well, that's, I mean, that's partly why I like that one.
I feel like you could cover that in four words
in any language, that concept.
I mean, you couldn't shorten it too.
You could just call people an ass baby.
Ass baby. You came out of a butt. Butt baby. Butt baby. I mean you couldn't shorten it to you could just call people in
Alright they're all locked in so here's who wrote the answers. You're nothing but a gooey little zip
May your children walk backwards and buy rear view mirrors for their whole lives?
That was Emily, the question writer,
but apparently, according to Emily,
that is another real Croatian insult.
Well, it had to be because it's so,
that's so strange, like it couldn't, yeah.
Yeah, how could you think of it otherwise, yeah.
What do you think it means to buy a rear view mirror?
Yeah, I don't know.
It can't be a very archaic insult.
No, yeah, that's pretty fresh.
That's reasonably fresh.
I don't understand it.
I don't either.
I mean, it feels like it'd be a...
It's just like, I hope your children have an annoying life, I guess.
Is that it?
Just wishing sort of...
Like a weird sort of... I think they're the
best insults, the ones that are just wishing a low-level thing. I love. Yeah. I
wish that you have a scratch in Everich or something You did. Ah, Claire's was, fall on your own vomit.
Also, very, that was good.
Hey there, how's it going?
Well, I don't know, it does feel like a good curse, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Because it's a double banger, because you're wishing them that they're vomited first.
I hope you throw up and then you fall on top of it.
Yeah.
And I reckon, translate that into any language and it'd
sound powerful. Yep. Would you rather... And this is... Combédon...
Vomit... I don't know what vomit is. And I also don't know how to speak French.
What were you gonna say? Yeah I was gonna say something. This is to everyone. Would you
rather fall in your own vomit or someone else's? Your own.
Oh no.
Yeah, definitely my own.
But if it's, but if it means that you didn't have to have a vom.
Oh, that's, yes, that's the bit that makes it more interesting.
Mind you, fall in someone else's vomit, there's such a good chance of doing a chamber.
You're gonna add to the pile.
You're gonna be like, ah, ah.
Sorry, I didn't mean to do this.
I vomited in response to someone else's vomit once.
Did you?
Oh my god, me too!
Whoa.
I wanna hear your, I wanna hear.
This show better not.
There will be a back and forth between you two
if one of you go, then it's just gonna be
back playing tennis.
So I wanna hear your story.
My vomit story. I was in the car with my sister and a little dog that she'd been
babysitting that was sitting on my lap. The dog vomited on my lap. I was upset.
Once we got back to my sister's house I got out the car and was trying to
like clean it up off myself and get it out everywhere.
I can't remember if I started vomiting a little bit
and then my sister vomed,
or if my sister vomed a little bit and then I vomed.
But that was it.
Well, it's a tremendous coincidence.
Because my dog did a vomit once, and then I vomited.
You.
That must be powerful, whatever the scent is in there, in there that it's like whatever the opposite
of a pheromone is.
I was pregnant and I was having a good run.
You know, I like pregnant women are notorious for doing vomits and I was like, I'm actually
doing pretty well.
And then the dog did a vomit.
I was like, I'm lost.
But it was the only time I did.
So that's pretty good run.
That's pretty good run.
Dave, what's your best vomit?
My best vomit.
I try not to vomit.
I recently broke a nine year streak.
Yeah, sorry, I'm going again.
That's up to you to vomit.
Oh my God, yeah.
See, I'm like you.
I'll just close my eyes and stop breathing
and just concentrate. I hold it. I don't wanna let it out. I won't tell my eyes and stop breathing and just concentrate.
I just hold it.
I hold it.
I don't wanna let it out.
I won't tell my worst vomiting story
cause I already told it on I'm the worst.
Oh yeah.
You can hear it in full.
Oh, love that.
It's, I thought it was almost saying,
I'm like, I don't need to say that.
I'm like, oh yeah, I already told Claire.
And-
It was a ripper of a story.
You don't need to hear that again.
My most shameful day.
Where were we up to?
Oh, a street dog should bathe after being patted by you.
That was the house, Dave.
Good work, love it.
You smell worse than a damn horse.
Hand went for that, that was Dave.
Ooh.
Meaning Claire is correct, you were born out of an ass.
It's great, it's a really good one.
It's a good one.
Butt baby.
Butt baby. I'm going to make a t-shirt that says butt baby.
Butt baby sounds like a really good like little cartoon.
Yes it does.
Alright. Hey, maybe we should all make butt babies.
Butt baby, I'm in.
Do you guys want to make butt babies?
That's a really cute pick-up line, isn't it?
Is it?
Really cute.
So that means after that round, who've we got?
Claire's got a point, House has got a point,
and Dave's got a point there.
It almost feels mean when everyone but one gets a point,
but unfortunately, that's how it is.
And you know what?
That's fine.
Question two comes from Lars van Koviden from Utrecht in the Netherlands and Lars' question is name a species of
fish so you just got a name a species of fish oh okay wow that's wide open yeah
you can make up whatever you like don't have to describe it or anything like
that just we just need the name and while you're writing your answers I'll talk a bit more about this
Croatian insult. According to Emily, yeah according to Emily that
review mirror one is also a real Croatian insult and on a Balkan
forum a guy called Saban writes, he lists so many and some of them are
really putrid and like
heaps of slight variations on some, a lot of mothers are involved.
Mothers really cop it, don't they?
They do, yeah.
In insults.
I'm not going to, won't go through those, but this is what Saban writes, warning, some
bad language is very harsh.
I would not invented or use them, but unfortunately they are in the speech of our people.
Mostly poor people. Therefore do not think that we are bad people if we have a bad curse.
There are just some people." And then they list heaps of them. A lot of them are full on, but, there's a few baffling ones that I don't mind like, God give your mother to recognise you in a sausage.
Wow.
God give your mother to recognise you in a sausage.
Yeah.
I would love to be recognised in a sausage.
I don't know what I meant by that.
I regret it.
And then there was some kind of brilliant ones like,
May everything in your garden go dry except from the laundry.
What?
All your plants go dry.
May everything in your garden go dry except for your laundry.
Oh.
That's kind of, that's a pretty good insult.
Yeah, I like that.
Or low- key curse.
My old neighbour at one time when I lived in a different house
to the house I live in now, used to put spikes and nails
in her garden beds because our other neighbour
was a real freak and would hop the fence
and poison her plants, so she put nails in the garden bed.
Oh my god, both of those are full on. Yes. Why do you know if the a fish name. Oh but I had to keep writing
Butt Baby and then deleting it again. I was saying take this serious too soon. If you
if you soon to give up. If you've played an episode with Saren before he almost
definitely would have done Butt Baby I'm sure. Yeah there would have been a few Butt Babies in the room.
If this was a live episode 100% there would have been a Butt Baby. It's so hard not to write Butt Baby I'm sure of it. Yeah there would have been a few Butt Babies in the room. If this was a live episode 100% there would have been a Butt Baby.
It's so hard not to write Butt Baby. So I think listeners just appreciate the restraint shown in this room if that is if you don't hear a Butt Baby.
There's gonna be a Butt Baby! Alright, answer for question number two. Which of these are real species of fish, brown spotted bloomer, the speckled poosler, green finned hogsuck, smooth
leather jacket, floppy Frederick or patchwork bright eye.
They're all great.
Yeah.
They are great.
Prop to you Hanford.
I'm going to buy an aquarium and I'm going to name my fish every one of those names. One of it, yeah. Can you?
Hmm, you look like a speckled poosler to me.
Is it annoying to ask you to read them?
No.
I'd love it too.
Brown spotted bloomer, the speckled poosler, green finned hogsuck, smooth leather jacket,
floppy Frederick or patchwork bright eye.
I just want you to put that to a dance beat.
Um, the first one.
Brown Spotted Bloomer.
Yeah, right.
Or the Speckled Puzler.
Nah, let's go with the Bloomer.
Bloomer.
Beautiful. I'll go with the Smooth Leather Jacket.
Okay.
That's so great.
I mean, is Hogsuck 2 out there?
Could it be Hogsuck? Could it be Hogsuck?
Could it be Hogsuck?
Dare to dream.
I want it to be so bad.
What was the second last one?
Floppy Frederick.
I love that as well.
And I could see someone calling, that's a floppy Frederick.
And then Rex Hunt kisses him and throws him back.
Yeah, it can't be Hogsuck.
I'm afraid I love that so much.
I'm going to go with floppy Frederick, please.
Okay.
That's so funny.
Like, it can't possibly be Hogsuck.
Lock in floppy Frederick.
A reasonable answer.
All right, here's the answers.
Patchwork, bright eye.
That was Claire.
That was beautiful.
I can picture that.
That's a tropical fish, I reckon.
When you first said it, I was like, oh, that's a tropical fish. I'm like, oh, that's a tropical fish. I'm like, oh, that's a tropical fish. I'm like, oh, that's a tropical fish. I'm like, oh, that's the answers. Patchwork Brideye, that was Claire.
That was beautiful.
I can picture that.
That's a tropical fish, I reckon.
When you first said it, I thought you were going to say Patchwork Bride.
That's pretty fun too.
Green-finned Hogsuck was Han.
Oh, that's so great.
I'm pretty sure.
Are they a real fish called Hogsuck, Sam?
No. Okay. I was sold on it. I'm like, that's so great. I'm pretty sure. Are they real fish called hogs that Sam? No, okay.
I was sold on it.
I thought that could be real.
I was really hoping that you were gonna say that.
I would have picked that one for sure.
I was really close to that one.
The speckled poos-a-lar.
That was Dave.
That's good though.
Brown spotted Bloomer.
Han went for that.
That was Lars.
Okay, the house.
All right, Lars.
Floppy Frederick. Dave went for that, that was Lars, aka the house. All right Lars. Floppy Frederick, Dave went for that,
that was also the house.
Fanny house!
Meaning Claire was correct, smooth leather jacket.
Oh yeah!
That's so good.
That's good.
Yeah.
I know about leather jackets,
my dad's caught leather jackets.
Oh, there you go.
Cause they are an Australian and New Zealand fish apparently.
I've never heard of them before.
Sounds so cool.
It does.
I'm picturing a Fonzie fish.
Yeah, I'm picturing it's holding the jacket over its shoulder somehow.
I don't know how a fish could do that.
That is smooth.
You can only use one fin the other way.
So it's just going in circles because the other one's holding a jacket.
Just doing laps.
Yeah, I'm still cool.
Hey guys, look at my clothes.
Check this out.
Yeah, we saw it mate.
All right. Hey guys, look at my clothes. Check this out. Yeah, we saw it mate.
Alright.
Alright, well that means that round the house actually gets two points and Claire also gets
a point.
We've really got to pull together against this awful house.
So the scales after two rounds, hand on zero, Dave on one, Claire on two, but now out in
front on three points
as the host. Here's question number three. This is from Tana Nordstrom-Young from Calgary
in Alberta, Canada. The question is, what nickname did backup NFL quarterback Joshua
Dobbs receive in the 2023-24 season? What nickname did backup NFL quarterback Joshua Dobbs receive in the
2023-24 season? While you're writing your answers, I'll let the audience know a bit
more about the smooth leather jackets. Lars writes, hopefully you haven't already
seen this one since it lives in the waters around Australia, but you might
know it by its other name, the creamfish. It's also known as the velvet leather
jacket, which I guess would make it a
blended fabric fish. Beautiful observation Lars. According to Wiki, leather jackets have a hard
sandpaper-like exterior, which they use as a defense mechanism, which causes the fish to
swim slowly. Because of this, the diet of leather jackets is atypical, focusing on slow-moving
species such as sponges, sea squirts and barnacles. Geez that barnacles, I didn't even, they're very slow moving I would have thought.
Those things on ships right?
I guess a barnacle moves as fast as the ship is stuck to.
That's true.
Smooth.
That's how I refer to my husband.
You're the ship or he's the ship?
Yeah I don't know, I was trying to turn it into something.
If you had said it in Croatian, I think that would have sounded really biting.
That would have been a thing.
Smooth leather jackets are monogamous.
Adorable.
Adorable. How adorable is monogamy?
It's adorable, okay.
The fish developed a poor reputation among early European fishermen in New Zealand as
the fish would often eat bait without being caught due to their small mouths.
No wonder it's monogamous.
I also don't know what that means.
I think there's enough there.
You don't know what monogamous means?
What I'm saying is, is it possible that people with small mouths are not as highly sexual?
That was what I was trying to...
Yeah.
But they're real quick.
Can you cut everything out that I've said?
I think that played, Claire.
Okay.
You're doing a great job.
Oh, thank you so much.
Yeah, apparently they were really hard to sell as well, and that's why they gave them a new name, Creamfish, and that boosted sales.
Sorry, Creamfish sounds disgusting.
That sounds like a deviant.
No, thank you.
That sounds like something you'd get if you put fish
steaks in a blender?
I would-
Cream fish.
Cream fish was my answer to the next question.
It will be now.
That's a good nickname for an NFL player.
Cream fish.
Touchdown by cream fish.
Cream fish.
You keep talking.
Oh, okay.
I gotta do something.
I just check my messages.
Oh, here we go.
Yeah, sorry.
You've done some serious copying and pasting over there.
No, I just, one of you wrote one of the answers
I already have, so I'm like, ugh.
Oh.
Which I love.
Really?
To say it twice.
That's incredible.
Yeah.
What are the chances of a nickname?
I don't think that's ever happened before.
Love it. Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
So the answers are in for question number three,
which is what nickname did backup NFL quarterback
Joshua Dobbs receive in the 2023-24 season?
The Dobb Gobbler.
Yeah.
Big scooter.
Bleach ball.
Dobby the house elf.
The Pastronaut.
Or the delightful entrée. Dobby the house elf, the Pastronaut or the Delightful Entree. It's up to you Claire.
Dobb Gobbler, Big Scooter, Bleach Ball, Dobby the house elf, the Pastronaut or the
Delightful Entree. Wow they're all so good. I'd be proud to have any one of
those nicknames. I mean, sometimes when playing this game,
I think it's just important to give points
to the one that's the best,
regardless of whether you believe it's it.
And that is why I choose the dog goblin.
I look forward to it, Claire.
Thank you so much.
Dave?
So is it Pastronaut?
Is it like astronaut with a P in front of it?
Yeah, or a double S, like Pastronaut.
Oh, like Pastronaut.
I thought it was like a play on pasta.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I thought it was very food focused
at the tail end of the options there.
Maybe they like carb load before a game or something.
I think it's a passing the ball and astronaut play yeah and which apparently means it doesn't quite work. In American accent
that would work better. Oh yeah, astronaut. Yeah it works better. Yeah put me down for
astronaut. Hannah, were you laughing at how good my accent was? Yes, yes. I
laughed in like a way that not because I thought it was funny or bad, it was in like
I couldn't believe.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, you're just so shocked that nothing comes out like a laugh.
I was like, whoa.
Well, you're like, whoa, dude.
I was like, whoa.
See, I did it again.
Yeah.
And you didn't even notice it's how good it was.
That's incredible.
Go on, run me through them.
In American accent?
Yes.
Yes. The Dobb Gobbler.
Big Scooter.
Bleach Ball. Dobby the House Elf.
Pastronaut.
Or the Delightful Entree.
It's hard.
Ours confused me so much in American.
What was before the Dobby one?
Bleach Ball.
Yep.
Really?
Yeah, why not?
Yeah, why not? Why not? I was tempted by Bleach Ball. Yep. Really? Yeah. Why not? Yeah, why not? Why not? Why not? I was tempted by bleach ball. Okay. Really? If that's what his head looks like, I don't know.
Are we allowed to see a picture of his head?
I can show you after. Okay. Big dude, dyed blonde hair.
Bleach ball. But like, like buzz cut, but like buzz but blonde, right? Oh yeah.
Hmm.
All right.
That's amazing the things like, yep.
So, here's our at the answers.
Big scooter, that was Han.
Thanks.
Cute.
I tried to reel it in this time,
and it didn't work, so.
Dobby the house elf. That was Claire.
Oh, good.
That was beautiful work.
Thank you.
Uh, the Dobb Gobbler.
That was the house elf.
As was Bleach Ball.
Which is the one I just came up with in no time.
No!
That makes sense.
And everybody liked it.
Why did you?
Isn't it funny?
What was the one you had to swap out?
Dobby the house elf.
No!
Isn't that amazing? Wait, what's his real name?
Yeah!
His real name is Joshua Dobbs.
Oh, okay, that's where all the Dobbs bits came from.
One of the odds of all these Dobbs.
Yeah, that was all I...
Yeah, I was just...
Just had to be a Dobbs...
And I also thought...
It was all going to be Dobb based for me. I was like...
Dibba-Dobba? Yeah, Dibba-Dobba... thought I was it was all gonna be dub based for me I was like I was gonna do
ding-dang Dobson I don't know anyway keep going oh the delightful on tray that
was Dave I really thought that was the one that you just came up with because you seem to like struggle saying it every time.
Entree?
Is that right?
Entree.
Yeah, you really question yourself every time.
Entree.
Great.
The delightful entree.
And that means the correct answer was the Pastronaut.
The Pastronaut.
That's what got me across the line.
Hang on, who did the Dob Goblin again?
Who was it?
I did the Dob Goblin again who was it I did the Dob Goblin can we high five again so good again
yeah we've high-fived already this episode I was watching pay attention
all right what does that mean so oh my gosh the house got two points again and
Dave got a point the house is really it's getting out of hand here.
It's embarrassing.
No more points for the house, okay?
We agree.
Okay.
We agree.
Okay.
Question number four comes from Matthew Ball of Victoria, Canada.
And the question is, what superhero first appeared in Savage Dragon, which is a comic
book I think.
I should have looked that up.
Issue number 32, and what was their power?
So superhero, a weird superhero and their power.
You know, the name and then a sentence sort of
talking about their power.
While you're on your answers,
here's a little more info about the Pastronaut.
According to Tanup,
Dobbs has long showed an interest in space exploration,
studying aerospace engineering in college
and interning at NASA.
NASA.
I really...
That's two episodes in a row.
I overthink.
I'd like, I go, it's not, I think NASA.
No, it's not.
I always get it wrong.
It's not NASA.
It's NASA.
And then I sat there like, no, that is definitely not right. It started because a character I played on this show years ago, he worked for NASA.
NASA.
And he didn't know how to say it.
And now it's fully mucked me up on it.
Anyway.
While Dobbs might not be an astronaut just yet, he can be the pastronaut, which serves
as a play on the word. Thanks,
Tanner. NASA even shouted out Dobbs nickname after he led the Vikings to a comeback win
in his team debut, sharing an image of Dobbs wearing astronaut gear.
All right, while you're still writing your answers, let's go for a quick break.
And we're back and the answer for question number four! What superhero first
appeared in Savage Dragon issue 32 and what was their power? Bell-bottomed Badger. A Funkadelic
humanoid Badger whose strut is powerful enough to cause earthquakes. Terry Tungsten. With
an extendable tongue so sticky it can wrap up opponents or allow
Tungsten to lick his way up walls. Yep, great. Mandible. He can chew through rock.
I love it. Excellent.
Hangry Henderson. The hungrier he gets the more rage-filled he becomes.
Hangry. Okay. Handsome the horse, his power is a mighty backwards kick.
Yep.
Or heavy flow, can shoot high pressure menstrual blood
at her enemies.
Ooh. Wow.
Wow.
Why does he?
Why has that one convinced me?
How's flow spelt?
Yeah, we really-
F-L-O.
Oh, yes. We really wanna know the date.
Obviously 31, don't we?
Cause it really, it's like,
well, if this is from the fifties,
it might not be heavy flow.
Right.
Yeah.
But if it's from the nineties, yeah.
Well, if everyone, does everyone wanna know,
cause it-
When? Yeah. Oh, really? Well, if you want to know? Because it- When?
Yeah.
Oh really?
Well if you want-
Well we should have known before we wrote our answers.
Yeah, that's what I mean, so maybe we shouldn't know.
I think we shouldn't know because otherwise we probably could have tailored our answers
to it.
Yes, that's what I was thinking.
I was saying, only if you all thought.
Maybe later.
Alright, Dave, we're back to you.
Can we have just the names again, not the powers, just the names?
Yep.
Uh, Bellbottom Badger, Terry Tungsten, Mandible, Hangry
Henderson, Handsome the Horse, or Heavy Flow. What are H's? Wow, okay. Okay. And I believe
this isn't like a DC or Marvel. This isn't off the beaten path. Yeah, okay. Good alternative.
Oh boy. Dave, I think it's your craft. I know it is, I'm sorry.
Handsome the horse.
With a very bad, just has a powerful kick.
Also just like the simplicity of mandible.
Mmm.
But then heavy flow, is that so out there that it's the answer?
Yeah.
Is it so out there that it's in there?
Yeah.
Is that what you mean?
Yeah.
Maybe I'll go handsome the horse.
Handsome the horse.
All right.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse.
I'm going to go with the horse. I'm going to go with the horse. I'm going to go with the horse. I'm going to go with the horse. I'm going to go with the horse. So out there that it's in there. Yeah Yeah
Maybe I'll go handsome the horse handsome the horse. All right
Handsome the horse and just while the I'm sure like comic book people listening are like actually some it's Oh, I was image comics. So that's not DC or thing. Oh, is it? No
Correct. I mean if it was it would have the same name.
It would be Marvel or DC.
They surely can't get defensive over any of the characters you just read out.
None of those are good characters.
No.
Alright, Dave's locked in, handsome horse, what about Han?
What was the bell bottomed badger?
And what does he do? Funkadelic humanoid badger
Did you? Oh no, it's a funka. Who's strut is powerful enough to cause an earthquake. Yeah, we really need to know the data
if you don't. Nah, I think
I'm gonna, nah, I'm gonna pick flow. It's just so if I don't pick flow and then it's flow
I'm gonna kick myself. Like handsome the horse. Like handsome. Yeah
So are we going with heavy flow? Yeah, we're going with heavy flow. That gonna kick myself. Like handsome the horse? Like handsome. Yeah. So going with heavy flow. Yeah we're going with heavy flow. Leaves you clear. Yeah I'm really I'm really struggling.
Um yeah look let's put one in for bell button badger shall we? Yeah. Let's just we'll just have a
like yeah the badger deserves one.
Okay.
Give it to me.
And I, I'll be honest, I like Terry Tungsten a lot.
Oh yeah.
But um.
It's not too late.
Woof.
Wow.
Okay.
I'm.
What are you feeling?
I mean you chose the one you wanted.
I'm, I, to me,
just before I give such a big opinion,
our answers are all locked in.
Well, I don't know if Claire's is.
Or is it?
All right, we'll go Terry Tungsten.
No, I think, yeah, all right.
I'm giving my opinion to myself.
Oh. Oh.
Even after the lock-in?
Cause we can't change that.
We've locked in now.
Oh no, I just think Terry Tungsten sounds very Matt coded.
I can just hear him saying it.
Well, that's cause I did say it.
Yeah, he has.
I don't know, there's some reason
I can hear it in his voice.
It just sounds like he...
Yeah, I think you're right.
Anyway, this guy, house needs a break.
Hmm, all right. Well, here's who wrote the answers.
Oh, no. Bellbottom Badger.
That was the house. Very mat-coded.
I thought that was great. Yeah, I liked it.
Probably the one that, if I had to, if I had to read one of these comics,
I probably would have picked that one. Yeah. Yeah.
The other one, which was a bit of a collab between Matthew,
the question writer in the house house was Hangry Handerson.
Okay, you're right.
Yeah.
I think you're onto something with Terry.
Mandible, who chews through rock, the most succinct of them all was Claire.
I loved it.
You'd read it?
I loved it.
You'd read it.
I love to chew through rock.
Like what's he doing?
Like he's got to rescue some kids that are trapped under rubble and he's just sort of
chewing his way through.
Not even just quickly like biting it and get his chewing.
He's just going to be like, oh my god.
Get through this next one.
He's got to do his hundred chews or whatever.
That can't be the rule, is it?
Hundred.
Terry Tungsten. That was actually Dave.
Oh, good job.
Good job. Try to job. Good job.
Try to write.
Try to think what would matter.
Handsome the horse which Dave went for.
That was Han.
Great work.
It's Flo.
It's Flo.
Meaning Han is correct.
It's heavy Flo.
Well done.
Han gets a point.
Two points for Han.
Two.
One for Dave.
Wow.
That really changed things.
So, Han.
I gotta get my children a copy of this comic book.
That's Han's first points.
Congratulations.
Your first episode.
Thank you.
That means now after four rounds,
it is Claire and Han on two apiece,
Dave on three, but out in front,
still on five points, it's the house.
Wow.
And I don't like that.
Two questions together, still time.
Here's question number five.
This comes from Matt Rowe from Stanmore in New South Wales.
And the question is, what was the headline
of a Manchester Evening News article from May, 2021?
This is a bit of an interesting headline.
What was the headline from a Manchester Evening news article, May 2021?
Evening?
You know what I don't like about this?
Really exposes me for how little I know about what was happening in 2021.
Well, I don't this, it doesn't necessarily have to-
I know, but still, if you were smart, you'd reference the thing. I don't still if you were smart you'd reference the thing.
I don't know if you want to see a picture of heavy flow or not. Yes.
Oh wow!
What's going for it?
What's the noise?
That's not a flow though is it?
Glub. The noise is glub.
That's not a flow. That's a like a, you know, like a jet.
Hang on. so it says,
I don't, the,
Brappa, it says Brappa,
Lurch,
Glub.
That's the sound effect.
That's what they sound like, right?
Yeah.
That's what periods sound like.
It is.
I see, was it, did you do this on the tell,
I don't know, I might've seen you in a club somewhere.
What?
No.
No.
Have you done this?
No. I was the only woman in the No. Have you done this? No.
I'm the only woman in the room.
Have you done this?
No.
No.
Not quite.
Look, it's slightly tangential.
I haven't, but it is how I delivered my babies.
You did have, you used to have a bit about-
I shot them at my enemies.
Pissing so quick it's like a fire.
I shot my butt babies at my enemies. What? You used to have a bit that like, you or someone, you know, pisses so quick it's like a fire. I shot my butt babies and my enemies. What?
Can you just have a bit like, you or someone you know pisses so quick it's like a fire,
a bushfire helicopter.
Yeah, it's like a helicopter putting out a bushfire.
I think about that all the time, it's so funny.
Thanks mate.
That's such funny imagery.
Oh man, I'm very jealous, it takes me ages.
All right, while they're writing their answers,
here's more info about Heavy Flow.
I just need a news headline from 2021.
According to Savage Dragon Wiki,
Heavy, oh by the way, this edition came out in 1993.
So you were like, Heavy Flow could be right in the 90s,
he was spot on.
I'm so proud of myself
So according to the wiki Heavy Flow became one of
Freakforces bounties bringing her in when dragon had been abducted by the fiend and his soul sent to hell
Many years later. She was similarly
Arrested for the price on her head this time by a freelancing dragon. On a raid on a Belko
factory she ended up being shot with freak out and was depowered before being
killed by Melvin Belko. I mean that just is absolutely gibberish but anyway people
who know what that means know what that means. According to Matthew if the goal
is to get a gross
out character that is also full of outdated menstruation jokes, the creators
succeeded. Though a lesser known 2000s comic Red Dragon features the
character in multiple issues before she meets her end. If the idea was female
empowerment, they may have missed the mark All right, the answers are in. Here is question
number five, penultimate question. What was the headline of a Manchester evening news article
from May 2021? Bank robber caught after being trapped in shopping center lift.
Mother report son missing after game of hide and seek was behind curtains all along
Smoking estate broker tokes chokes and croaks. Well that sounds like a rhyme zone.com to me
iPad kids, what are they and should we be afraid?
kids what are they and should we be afraid women man the cannery it's all caps or everyone makes mistakes says teen who karate kicked 74 year old man
into a river
Well, it is your go ahead.
Yep. Lock it in.
The last one? Yep.
Okay.
Kick in.
I've forgotten all of them, but they're so long.
Also, what Manchester in?
Manchester, yeah, in England.
Yeah.
And what date?
Oh, 2021.
And what was the name of the newspaper?
Manchester Evening News.
Why evening?
That's not when you get the newspaper.
I don't have time to read the news in the evening.
So you got Bank Robber Court
after being trapped in shopping center lift.
Mother reports son after game of hide and seek
was behind curtains all along.
Smoking estate broker tokes, chokes and croaks.
iPad kids, what are they and should we be afraid?
Women, man, the cannery.
Well everyone makes mistakes as Taneu Karate
kicked a 74 year old man into a river.
Oh, can it be that one though?
Yeah, let's, is it okay if I do that too?
Of course.
It's so charming.
We're in agreement together.
Everyone makes mistakes.
It is so.
Oh, hang on, no, no, no.
All right.
Let's just spread these answers out.
Let's give all the answers some love.
I'll take the shopping center lift.
If that's all right with you, Dave.
I really wanted to go the Karate Kick too.
It's so charming.
And it feels like the one that would be like a UK.
They love tabloid sort of crazy stuff.
Yeah.
All right.
Shall we all go this one?
But what are the other...
Oh, but now I'm thinking...
I don't think it's...
I mean, Harden's Seag is so great, but I don't think...
And then I don't know about the rhyming one.
What was the...
Why don't you like the rhyming one?
I like it, but I think that might matter.
Come up with that one.
iPad kids, what are they and should we be afraid?
Women man the cannery.
I mean, should I go that one?
That's so fun to say.
Give it a try saying it. Should we be afraid? Women man the cannery. I mean, should I go that one?
That's so fun to say.
Try saying it.
Women man the cannery.
Is it saying that they do that
or is it telling them to do it?
Oh yeah, that's the question.
This is how they're finding out.
It's like you picture Manchesterian women
across the city reading the paper
and just dropping and running in shit.
In the evening too.
In the evening, we gotta do it.
Women man the cannery.
I'm thinking about going that one.
Women man the cannery.
Don't whisper it, that's terrifying.
Oh yeah, that's.
Women man the cannery.
Yeah, put me down.
Women man the cannery?
Which one am I?
I'll go with the lift.
I'll go with the lift.
Should I go with the lift?
No, let's spread it around.
Okay.
I'll go with the lift.
Spread it around.
Spread it around.
It'll be...
Surely one of us has got it.
Alright, here's the answers.
This might shock you.
Smoking estate broker tokes, chokes and crooks.
That was the house.
You tried to brush over it. Smoking estate broker tokes, chokes and croaks. That was the house. Smoking. You tried to brush over it.
Smoking, estate,
Broker, tokes, chokes and croaks.
Basically makes sense.
What story are you sort of telling?
Well, it's just like an estate broker was out,
you know, showing a room or a house
and he died in front of them.
Sounds like more like page 10, page 12 to me.
That's a good point.
iPad kids, what are they and should we be afraid?
That was Han.
That was Flounder.
That was Flounder.
I loved that a lot.
Mother reports son missing after a game of hide and seek
behind the curtains all along.
That was Matt, the question writer.
Okay, the HAL.
Great stuff.
Then Claire had bank robber caught
after being trapped in shopping center lift.
That was Dave Warnock here.
Yeah.
No, it's all right, mate, because you chose mine.
Oh no.
Women in the gallery was Claire.
I liked it a lot.
And that of course means that Han is correct.
Yeah.
Everyone makes mistakes.
And they do.
And they do.
It was such a good one.
Very good job.
Karate kicked 74 year old into a river.
That's so funny.
And the other funny thing is that if you all went
for that one, you would have got one point.
But as it was, you all got one point.
Oh!
Oh, it could be swapped ride and you two switched.
Do you want to know why I wrote Women Man the Cannery?
Yeah, I love it.
To me, it sounds like a World War I.
Yeah, because I heard 1921.
Okay.
Okay.
I still got a point for it.
That's so funny.
That's so funny.
It really does sound-
I started hearing the others, and you're like, oh no.
Well at first I was like,
show me a little lift.
Hilarious, in 1921.
They didn't have lifts.
iPads. Hang on a minute.
Very good.
Alright, one round to go.
Triple points for you three.
I hate this one. But the scores are tight. On three points it's Han and Claire, on four points it's Dave,
and still maintaining a slender lead, on five points it's the house.
So this is truly anyone's game.
And the final question comes from Tolia from South St. Paul in Minnesota, and the question is,
what is the synopsis of the 1994 film Holy Matrimony? So Hann, it's like a short like a paragraph probably like four or
five sentences something like that. That's too many. Yeah yeah so it's like
this is your longest one it's a little film plot synopsis. It's basically harder
than writing the blurb for your festival show. So okay so you're breaking down the
whole film. Oh yeah I'd know often though it can do but so you're breaking down the whole film. Oh, yeah, I'd know often that
it can do but usually you're leaving a little question at the end. Okay, no, so is it like...
Will they find themselves along the way?
Okay, I wasn't sure if it was that or when like you don't want to watch a horror film
so you go on Wikipedia and read the whole thing. No, I think it's more in the back of a DVD cover.
Oh, okay. You go, oh, should I watch this? Yeah.
Ah, okay. But you can probably a bit more deep, dates or you know do it however you want to do it. It's a holy matrimony 1994. That's right
That's all we've got. That's what you got. Okay. I was literally about to be like is there a synopsis
What's it about? How am I expected to write about this?
1994
While you're writing your answers, Matt writes of that great article headline.
He says, here's an abridged version of the article with some of the more grim stuff cut
out.
I appreciate that, Matt.
A teenage boy who karate stole flying kicked a 74 year old man into the River Mersey has
apologized for his behavior and said everyone makes mistakes. The victim was left struggling in the water
before being rescued by two heroic school girls, Ellie Hughes and Chloe Woods, both
14. Well done. The girls made 14 year olds. Yeah. Jumping in the cold river in Manchester.
Yeah. I love that sort of stuff and it'll still like that that old man
They fished out still the next day would say something about
kids today
Forget all about it
The girls made a human chain to get him out of the water as he left Warrington Magistrates Court Benjamin Bridgeman
Gave an apology and claimed he didn't realize how old the victim was
Obviously, I'm very sorry about that. You know, it wasn't supposed to happen. I didn't realise he was 74 years
old. Oh my god. It's so like, I thought he was 60 something.
That's why I cried.
That's why I fly kicked this man. Bridgeman added, obviously everyone makes mistakes in
life. Do you know what I mean? That's the honest truth from the bottom of my heart.
There's not much I can say. His mum who supported him in court said,
For me, I want the elderly gentleman to get better because my son's not a rogue. That's
an interesting reason to want him to get better. All I want is for that man to just get his
life back because it shouldn't have happened. Pointing to her son she adds, he's well in the wrong
and he knows he's in the wrong 100%. Benjamin adds, back in court in three weeks everyone
will see me get sentenced then which I know that's what everyone wants so you'll see me
do my time which I deserve and yeah man sorry for what I've done and that is it. That's such a funny way to,
his head space there is pretty, a bit muddled I reckon.
I know everyone wants to see me get sentenced, great.
I hope you're all happy.
Anyway, I'm absolutely in the wrong.
And I deserve it, yeah man, I'm sorry.
What else can I say?
So good. Hope that man's okay.
Okay, the answer in for the final question. What is the synopsis of the 1994 film Holy Matrimony?
It all comes down to this. Triple points.
Wow, on the 30th anniversary of that great, great film.
Oh my god. That's right.
The two best detectives in Boston just got married.
I'm in! I'm in!
I'm in!
But their newlywed celebration doesn't last long as they are assigned to a major sting
operation.
The Catholic Church has been covering up one of the biggest drug rings in America, oh that
could have gone elsewhere, and the two sleuths must go undercover as priest and nun to infiltrate
the dangerous world of crack-fuelled clerics
without giving away their sexy secret."
Terrific.
That's option one.
Then you've got, Kevin, the deceased husband of Mallory Rogers, haunts every date she takes,
even eight years after his death.
Her second shot at happiness looks forever cursed until she turns to a medium for help.
Will they be able to convince Kevin
that his wife deserves to move on?
Brilliant.
These are all very good.
Then you got, what's better than donuts?
I love a movie that asks a question.
What's better than donuts?
Donuts and love.
That's what Dana and Eric Graham realized
when they decided to come up with a fresh new business idea.
A bakery that doubles as a wedding venue.
Don't have a ring? Use a donut!
Don't have a garter? Use a bigger donut!
This quirky comedy of eras is sure to be a fun family classic for decades to come.
They got girl meets boy.
Farm boy.
Swiss cheese farm boy.
Toby's struggling family cheese farm is about to be shut down for good, unless he can fix
it.
After meeting Beth, a young woman just trying to find her dream wedding venue, they decide
to team up to turn the farm into a wedding location of the century.
Will this save Toby's farm?
Will Beth fall for Toby and leave her American
dream life for the cheese life?
The cheese life.
So we've got two venue related. That's interesting.
Havana is a worldly wise Marilyn Monroe impersonator who, along with boyfriend Peter, hides out
in the strict Protestant Hutterite community after committing a robbery,
and to satisfy the elders, get married.
When Peter dies in a car crash, however,
Havana must marry, in true biblical tradition,
his younger brother Zeke, who happens to be 12 years old.
Wait, that's a lot going on there.
Or finally, golf instructor and ladies' man,
Troy Champs Crawford is informed
of a clause in his ailing wealthy father's will. Get married or his father's estate
will go to his sister. But it's hard to find a fiance when you're busy teaching wealthy
married women how to get a hole in one. What's he then Troy?, Champs Crawford. Crawford. Crawford.
Champs is like in quotation marks.
Champs.
Champs Crawford.
So you got the two best detectives in Boston.
Oh, it's good.
They get him married, then they have to go undercover,
keeping their sexy secret.
That's really good.
I love sexy secret.
Then you've got Kevin, the ghost, haunting his ex
or his wife, sort of cock-blocking her,
I guess.
Did we have any more information?
It was just 94, was it?
94.
We don't have where it was made.
No.
Just 94.
Go on.
What's better than donuts?
Donuts and love.
That's the donut wedding venue.
Then you've got the Swiss cheese wedding venue.
That's a tough pick.
Then you've got the Marilyn Monroe impersonator who hides out at a Protestant community, ends
up having to marry his 12 year old brother or the golf instructor slash ladies man has
to get married to get his father's estate.
All right, Claire, your first up. Oh no okay. I don't
think any of them said that. I'm really I'm really torn I hate that I'm going first so I'm just
going to... okay this is ridiculous but I'm choosing the one where she has to marry
the 12 year old. Thank you. Lock it in.
Okay, it's locked in. Dave, what do you think?
This is the trickiest choice of them all. I'm probably going to, I think I'm going to
do the first one. The two best detectives just got married.
Is it you're playing this game like I want this movie to be real
Yeah, that's the other one. That's the one. Yeah, this is kind of fun to have them look like a priest in an arm
But they're hiding their their nearly wet attraction to another that's fun
This is this would be around sister act era, you know, yeah
Cover cheap sister act. Yeah Aldi sister. They're Sisterac, but imagine there's also a priest.
Whoa!
Yeah, it's a good pitch.
It's a valuator.
That just leaves you hand.
Mm-hmm.
I'm going with between the first one, the married detectives, and the last one, because
the have to get married for his father's estate
is very, I would, I can picture a lot of movies
being like that that were made then.
It seems, feels legit, except it also-
You didn't live through the 90s, did you?
No, I did not.
I didn't make it.
Oh my god.
Are you a 98, baby? 97. Oh my god. Are you a 98 baby?
97.
Holy moly.
Oh my, are you Princess Diana reincarnated?
Yeah.
When did she, what time of year did she?
September or August?
I was born in October.
Oh yeah, it does take a little bit of time.
I've heard that, I've heard that.
31st of October to be precise.
Is that Halloween?
Yeah it is, it's also my birthday.
Oh yeah, that's a spooky birthday.
I'm a spooky boy.
Um, uh, I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I I know that. 31st of October to be precise. Is that Halloween? Yeah it is, it's also my birthday.
It's a spooky birthday.
I'm a spooky boy.
What's the last line of the last one that threw me?
But it's hard to find a fiancee
when you're busy teaching wealthy married women
how to get a hole in one.
See there's two meanings there, I don't know if that's-
Yeah no, go on. Go on. Go on? All right, there's two meanings there, I don't know if that's. Yeah, no, go on.
Go on.
Go on.
All right, here's who wrote the answers.
Oh no.
We had a real spread here, three separate answers.
Yeah, it's good, it's great.
It's exciting.
And I tell you what,
all your answers have affected the result here.
Ooh.
This is going down the wire.
I don't know what that means.
All right, Kevin, the ghost who haunts his ex-wife,
or is he... I was tempted. that was Dave Warnocki Dave
Really? Thank you. That is a real 90s feeling. Yeah
I remember that movie truly madly deeply like if you told me it was a UK film. I'd be like, it's the Kevin one
What's better than doughnuts doughnuts and love that was tall yeah, okay the house
Yeah What's better than donuts? Donuts and love? That was Tolya. Okay, the house. Great work. Pressure writer.
That's good. I wanna see that.
Yeah.
Don't ever ring.
Don't ever come in.
I got ya.
You're a mega donut.
And I like how Han and Tolya's heads
were in a similar place.
Swiss cheese.
Oh, are you the Swiss cheese?
And I didn't get it until then.
Holy, of course.
Yes, of course.
That's the holiest of cheeses, Swiss.
That's great.
I liked it a lot.
Thank you so much.
Will Beth fall for Toby and leave her American dream?
Her American dream life?
For the cheese life?
Look, I really almost had something
and then I gave it away.
I gave it up.
I really like it.
Thank you. For the cheese life.
I would love to leave for the cheese life. If there was an option of choosing cheese life, I'd it away. I gave it up. I really like it. For the cheese laugh. I would love to leave for the cheese laugh.
If there was an option of choosing cheese laugh, I'd take it.
It's like choose life.
Yes. But it's cheese laugh.
It's anything you want it to be.
It's like the New Zealand version of train spotting.
And then I guess you've got to also get pro cheese.
Nah, it doesn't quite work.
Pro-life and pro-choice.
Anyway, I was trying to cheese it up.
Isn't that what?
Choose life.
Wasn't that a, wasn't that from that?
From the pro-life campaign.
I don't think so.
Yeah, no.
I just thought it was.
I'm like, wham, what are you doing?
What is it?
We'll look it up later.
Doesn't matter. That's so funny that I've had that wrong in my head for a long time.
I'm like, weird thing. But yeah, anyway.
Dave went for the two Boston undercover newlyweds.
That was also Tolya. Tolya is on fire.
Ruddy movies that I want to watch. Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
So that's a point for the house there, which extends the house's lead.
Oh no.
They're going to win again.
But can one of you reel it in by being correct?
Then we had golf instructor and ladies man Troy Champs Crawford.
Hand went for that.
That was Claire.
Oh.
I did it. Good job. Maybe Claire is also correct.
Good job.
Oh!
Married the 12 year old.
Yeah!
Yeah!
That's the real movie.
Wait, was it a man that married his brother
or a lady that married her brother?
She was a burlesque dancer.
But yeah. Sorry.
There was so much going on in that.
There was a lot, but you know what I heard?
I heard you trip over
Hutterite oh yeah, and I was like well if Matt can't read the word
It hasn't made it so probably a real word. That's a good point. Well done. But also
Isn't it amazing that that film exists? It's so amazing and they got a budget for it. They had a full crew
They raised the finances
I think we should all watch it together at a sleepover.
Can I say the Marilyn Monroe actor was Patricia Arquette.
Oh, Oscar winner.
And the 12-year-old brother-in-law slash future husband was Joseph Gordon Leavitt.
Oscar nominee.
Isn't that amazing?
Really?
Talia wrote that Amanda
she double checked
these with another patron, Amanda.
Amanda, so we learned
about five weeks ago that
Talia and Amanda
were at a book club and
one of them said, oh this would be a really great fact
for this
Australian comedy quiz show I listened to.
And she goes, what, not who knew it?
And she said, yeah.
So they were like, they bonded over this.
And now they're like collaborating on questions they're sending in.
Oh my god, that's so great.
I love it.
Anyway, so she said that Amanda read these for me before I submitted and asked her to
give me notes, but she didn't have any.
So if they suck, it's her fault too.
But Dave you already said you want to watch those movies.
Yeah.
It's all these movies.
Oh those ones sound great yeah yeah yeah I don't know if I want to watch Holly Matterman
when I was looking up.
Did you say who the director is?
No.
Leonard Nimoy.
No.
What?
I couldn't believe that this exists so I had to look it up.
And can I just say on on Rotten Tomatoes,
the critics consensus is 0%.
What? Wow.
Audience slightly friendlier, 24%.
Wow, but I do want to watch it.
I want to watch it.
A review by Steven Amidon reads,
"'This sappy hymn to family values should offend nobody,
"'except people who like good cinema.'" Rawr. Wow. That's uh, that's pretty sick. Um, alright, final scores. Holy moly.
Oh, that's not what it was called. Oh my god, I only just got the gulp thing as well.
I was not paying any attention to how everyone did a whole pun. Yeah.
And I'm like, oh, I love how everyone took this in a different direction.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry.
It's funny.
I'm, you know, I'm locked into hosting.
I'm not able to pick up on all these little nuances and subtle things you're all going
for there.
Very subtle, right?
Okay.
Final scores in fourth place. First time on the show with a respectable score
of three points, it's Han.
Thank you so much.
Woohoo!
On four points in third place, it's Dave Warnocky.
Thank you very much.
In second place on six points, it's The House.
What?
But leaping to the lead with a huge final round
on nine points, it's Claire Hoopf.
Woohoo! I think that last round is heavily weighted. What? But leaping at a leap with a huge final round on 9 points is Claire Hootboy!
Woohoo!
I think that last round is heavily weighted.
Yeah.
But I'll take it.
You said before the round that you hated this one.
I hated that round.
But now do you love it?
Yeah, I love it now.
Great work.
And Troy Champs Crawford loves it too.
Alright, where can people find you?
So Claire, you've got a Sydney show coming up. Claire, you've got a Sydney show coming up.

I think I'm jigger on.
Well, for our shows, you can get a jigger on.
Oh, hang on, no, I can't do it.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Having thought of it, I'm not know how people find out about that. I think I'm going to go on. Well, for our shows, you can get a jigger on.
Hang on, no, I can't do it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Having thought about it for a few more seconds.
Yeah.
We're also, I'm not sure if you're streaming your show.
We're streaming our shows.
Anyone can watch them live around the world or on catch up.

Matt Stewart, goodbye!
Why are they called a manila folder?
Yes!
Um...
Seems racist. Is that a color?
I always, cause I always, as a kid, I was just shooting like the vanilla-y kind of
colored and that's what my hair always did. Vanilla folder. Vanilla folder.
But it is obviously manila from Philippines. Is that the Philippines?
Well it's spelt like that. Named after, I Googled it, Manila,
capital of the Philippines.
The paper was traditionally produced
with Manila fibers from Manila hemp.
Okay, there is a lot of Manila.
I mean, I'm starting to see why they called it that.
Okay, that feels okay.
It feels like this could have been a question on the pod.
Oh my god.
Where did the manila? And that's the dullest answer ever because of the manila file. It's literally a folder made of manila. Oh no more questions. Yep.
You're on episode 44, 48, 71. What? Have I done that many? Have I done three? You've done three. Wow.
They go for so long you sort of pass out by the end and you think, is that a dream or a nightmare?
What happened? Because you were gonna be on an episode about a month ago. Yeah and then I forgot that I think I was working. Yeah, yeah.
Dog walking, working. Escape room, working. Escape room, working. Wow, two interesting jobs. Yes.
So I- Agree. Now my day jobs are I work here like one day a week and I- In the escape room here?
Stupid old should totally have an escape room. Yeah that'd actually be really cool.
Yeah. Stupid old should totally have an escape room.
Yeah, that'd actually be really cool.
And I can get my friends to play for free.
Oh, I've never done one.
You didn't tell me that.
I'm keen.
That is how I indirectly found out I'm not Hans' friend.
The offer has never been made and I showed a great deal of interest in the escape room
and at no point.
I'm pretty sure.
I'm pretty sure.
But Dave just brings it up and Hans going well you know what I can do.
Come on. That's fair though. All right good to go? Yes please. Sorry was that not the
podcast? No that'll be in at the end for sure. Connor will clip out all that. No because
then I'll get doxxed. All right well tell Connor what can't be in there? Any of that? Nah, whatever. No.
Will you get doxxed?
Nah.
You get doxxed.
I'll get doxxed, not anymore.
But people will message you
and ask for free tickets to the Escovery.
You don't know me, but I think of you as a friend.
I don't know, I'm just like, I'm pretty famous.
I'm like, I'm a big time celeb, as we all know.
Yeah, yeah.
So people will figure out where I work
and they'll come and they'll get me.
Yeah, come on, don't put any of the specific things.
Because I'm incredibly well known across the lands.
Yeah, whether you're not already been doxed
by all your customers.
It's crazy.
Actually, I did get recognized once.
It was a bit awkward,
because I was about to take them into a room
and put on a bit of a silly voice.
That is hard.
That's hard to do.
Can you please do the silly voice?
I wasn't really a silly voice.
Please.
No, I'm too shy.
I just had to get a bit serious because I was taking them
into a horror themed room.
But seconds before I took them in, they were like,
beware.
Nah, I am,
I'm too shy.
Don't be coy with us, Anne.
So disappointing.
It's mostly that I'm too giggly
and I can't do it cause I'll giggle.
I'm just starting to sweat.
I haven't said your name since I've MC'd to show you're on.
Arbuthnot.
Yep.
With the th.
Yep, it's entirely phonetic.
I lean in on the second syllable.
I go, I buffen it.
And some people do.
And I will stop.
Honestly, who really knows?
I just know what my dad says.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's not really.
So he goes. He's not real.
He's not real. It's Scottish, but like we're not really, he's, yeah. He's not really... He's not real. He's not real. It's Scottish but like we're
not really... whatever. I don't understand it. I'm gonna say it entirely
differently now so look forward to that. And there will be some awkward pauses
hand while I cut and paste the answers. Please leave them in. The awkward pauses?
Well this one might be. It's a beautiful pause. Hopefully, I think this will be the Cut and paste the answers. Please leave them in. The awkward pauses?
Well this one might be.
It's a beautiful pause.
Hopefully, I think this will be the end of the episode around the time you're talking
about.
I imagine I've already bleeps over it, but you're a place of work.
Oh yeah.
Hey, on the topic of beautiful pause, how good's Dave's duck?
Oh, great pause. Paws. Um. How good's Dave's dog?
Oh, great paws. I thought it was gonna be a compliment of someone's skin.
Paws.
Oh.
Yeah, my dog's paws.
Beautiful.
There he is.
Oh my goodness.
Paws are a funny, like skin paws would be a funny thing
to compliment, wouldn't it?
They're really scratching, just searching around.
Oh, you got beautiful paws.
Lovely paws.
Paws. Look at them. I've always
admired. Right through your body there. I just thought you were making some comment about people who are not rich.
Beautiful paws. Beautiful paws. We say as we we let them peel our grapes. It's a fine production of Les Miserables. Ah, you beautiful paws. I've been cast as one of the beautiful paws.
Alright. Do that person get another point for it? Oh. Do that person get another point?
Um, do that person get another point? Do that person win? One of these is what I'm coming up with right now
All right, that's no good
Doesn't make any sense, but will it stand out? I don't know
The Delafal entree would be a great superior.
That one's very versatile.
As would Butt Baby, of course.
I really smashed that drink bottle
into my front tooth before.
It's still there?
Yeah, it's still there.
I was half expecting to see it.
You're like, oh, it is looking a little black,
the bottom half.
I'm gonna tell you guys a secret.
I got a wee.
Yeah, go do it.
Oh my God.
Thanks so much for letting us in.
That sounds like a kind of thing a friend might tell us.
Maybe someone who might get us in for free at an escape room.
I don't think you do the voice.
I will.
Great.
I said it's a voice.
It's really not.
It's just me being serious.
Is it a character?
It's a character.
Full character.
It's not just a voice I mean.
It's a costume.
It's a character.
Let Han go to the toilet guys. Sorry. Oh sorry. Full character. It's not just a voice I mean. It's a costume, it's character.
Let Han go to the toilet guys.
Sorry, sorry.
Oh sorry.
We'll go right here right now.
We did another episode earlier and there was a similar question to this but it was like
a mad magazine.
They did a spoof of Superhero and everyone had to come up with one and one of them was
Scout Woman and then Lizzie Who took on the character.
Dibbapadoop.
And Damon Cannon was on as well and he's like setting up a scene. All right, me and Dave,
we're doing a crime and scat woman comes in and says, how does it play out?
It turns out the character can only speak in scat is the way Lizzie played.
We were, I mean, just losing our minds. That's what this is all about.
It sounds really funny.
It makes me realize we're not lifting our weight today.
Well, no, I can see, I can see, I can see this, whatever the, some of these answers
here I can see you really playing out a scene with later.
Okay.
No pressure.
No, I know that's.
What's expected?
Why this show makes me feel very
I find it very hard to take things seriously.
Like it is so it's just silly words
and it makes me get it.
I just feel so giddy
from the minute I come in to do it.
I love it.
Yeah.
You know, like, you just say.
You don't have to be serious.
Yeah.
All right.
Cause it's so interesting to see
how it affects different people.
Cause there are some, some people come on
and it's like, all right, game time.
And you can tell that they're like, I'm to win no one will say it like that but you know
no bad answers. Imagine if my phone battery died it's not 20% I think it'll make it
yeah no that's an iPhone isn't it yeah Dave. Dave you're not, do you have an iPhone?
I have a charger with me sorry. Nah it's alright, we're near my house, just go home get it.
Oh yeah do you need it? It's gonna be fine. Would you need it to record the worst? Nah. Sick. Thank you.
Oh, was that my stomach? Was someone's.
Were you checking the tracks to see whose track made the tummy noise?
No, that's the merged down track.
So I was just checking the time because I know that you don't like podcasts going on.
Yeah, I do. I keep coming back for more.
Okay hang on I'm nearly done now.
Are you making me the bad guy that hurries these guys up?
That's... we did a live one at Comedy Republic a few weeks ago and I was making Luke the tech the bad guy.
I'm like, Luke do we really, we need to finish up?
And I told him before that I was gonna do that.
And he played it so funny.
He's like, well, I don't know, man.
You know how long you meant to run,
like you kept putting it back up to me.
I'm like, I was trying to make you the villain.
Do we all agree that Luke at Comedy Republic is the best?
He's so lovely.
So lovely. Imagine if we lovely. Mm-hmm. So lovely.
Imagine if we found out he wasn't.
Wouldn't we be devastated?
What if he got cancelled?
Milkshake ducked or whatever they say.
What?
Milkshake duck?
What? Excuse me?
Is that not a thing?
Yeah, that's a phrase, yeah.
Is that it though?
That doesn't sound right.
But what does it mean?
I mean, I'm so sorry, I don't watch YouTube.
I don't know what it means.
YouTube.
When they're like an internet hero, you know, someone from nowhere, and then soon after
they find out, oh no, they've actually got a really bad...
Backstory.
And why milkshake duck?
Originally there was someone who was famous for something to do with a milkshake duck
and everyone was like, what a legend.
What is a milkshake duck? They had a bad part. Was it a duck or a milkshake duck and everyone was like, what a legend. What is a milkshake?
They had a bad part.
Was it a duck or a milkshake?
I can't remember.
Was it a duck called milkshake duck or a milkshake called milkshake duck?
Did he make a milkshake with a duck in it?
Yeah.
I would cancel you for that.
The phrase is derived from a Twitter post made in 2016 by Ben Ward, an Australian cartoonist
using the online handle, Pixellated Boat.
His Twitter joke describes a fictional internet viral phenomenon of a lovely duck that drinks
milkshakes which is immediately discovered to be racist.
So it came from a joke.
Milkshake duck.
Milkshake duck.
Okay.
So something that at first looks innocent and then you realise.
And even like is celebrated. Oh no, that's terrible. Yeah. Okay. So something that at first looks innocent and then you realise. And even like it's celebrated.
Oh no, that's terrible.
Yeah.
Yeah.
An early example of the phenomenon was observed in 2016 with Ken Bone during a 2016 US presidential
debate.
After initially becoming a viral sensation on social media and receiving multiple corporate
sponsorships, Bone began receiving backlash when his questionable Reddit account history was
revealed after he hosted a Reddit AMA.
Women, man the cannery.
I love how Dave picked it.
Because it's like, I was like, I could see that as like a big headline, like the front
page, women man the cannery.
You're like, what the hell does that mean?
But you do hear it in this voice, women man the cannery.
Stop the presses.
All right, that'll do.
I like that as a...
Because the funny thing is like yours might get picked over the real one and they've spent
years making a real movie and you've spent five minutes a real movie. Yeah. And you've spent five minutes, you're like,
ah, that'll do.
That'll do.
And we're all like,
no one would ever make that piece of shit.
And they have spent their life making that piece of shit.
Anything cool coming up, Claire?
What?
Didn't I see you're doing a tour,
you got a tour or something coming up?
No.
No.
I mean, I don't know.
You just always getting around doing shows.
What do you have to do to call it a tour? Yeah. But it's not a tour or something coming up? No, no, I mean, I don't know. What do you have to get around doing? So what do you have to do to call it a tour?
But it's not a tour.
I've got a day in Sydney of the old show, you know, like the twenty
twenty four show. That's what man.
Oh, the twenty twenty four show.
Me and Dave are going to redo our twenty twenty three shows and film here.
But I'm like, I'm going to have to.
It's so hard to get it back in your head.
Even even the twenty twenty four show it's like, there are some corners
of that that have gotten a bit cobwebby.
So I'm gonna, I've got a lot of audio recordings of it
and I'm gonna try and I'll book a handful of shows around.
What a sweet nightmare.
Just listening back to you.
Oh, it's the worst.
A full hour of yourself talking.
Well, they didn't like that bit. Or that bit.
Oh, I remember that going better.
Well, that must have been a bad night.
Let's try another one.
Oh, nope.
Oh no.
Four in a row.
Geez, I had an unlucky run there.
Yeah.
Good luck to you.
I've made a mistake.
You've made a mistake.
No, you haven't.
No, you'll get it there, but it's going to feel terrible.
It's going to terrible. Yeah. In the, you know,
like the working environment. It's gonna be an effort. Gonna try and set up some shows in front
of very friendly audiences and work it back in. Yeah. And then when you're bombing in front of
friendly audiences that's when you know. I'm in trouble. But it's gonna be better than it was
when I first started doing it. Yeah it is. I think and I think some of it because I've done it similarly once before about three or
four years during lockdowns and stuff in between it and it came back in like I
did never going back to how flowing it was but I did it like five times and
then taped it. Yeah. It was you know it was fine. You'll be alright. You added it down a bit. I mean nobody would
describe your comedy style as flowing anyway. Slick. Yeah. It's not as slick as where I used to.
Hmm. It's a bit rusty. Yeah. Yeah I don't have a tour. I thought you did. I just keep doing bits. Oh, you know what I'm doing? I'm going on Melbourne Comedy Festival roadshow to Korea.
Oh, wow. I'm doing the Korea leg. So that's in just over. Yeah. You know, they had the India. Yeah. For a while.
Yeah, that's not happening anymore. I said had. I used past tense. I don't know why. But it does seem like the Indian scene probably is it like is it it seems to be doing
really like it's pretty wild now right? Yeah yeah yeah yeah I feel like it's an established part of the culture
yeah stand up and in Korea is not as much I think there's been traditionally more like clowning than
stand up and it is definite so Busan International Comedy Festival do three dates there
Then go up to the soul and do two dates there. Oh my and we have had our expectations managed
Like as in don't expect the shows to be like
outrageously
Like they will be small audiences and they might not
Them might not be on fire. I'm not a super vocal. I'm so stoked to do it though.
That's so great.
Because you learn so much, like yeah,
that little dance you do when you're feeling out the culture,
when you're like, does this,
like is this too rude?
Is this too verbose?
Is this too, you know, like I'm just, yeah.
Gonna have to be, gonna have to be nimble.
So when's that?
I leave on Sunday night.
Oh wow, so soon.
No, not this Sunday.
Sunday in a week and a bit.
Still, that's amazing.
It's really soon, it's just over a week.
What about after this episode comes out then?
I've had my, yeah.
Are you allowed to talk about it?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
Yeah, great.
Yeah, I don't know why I've missed that,
but that's awesome.
Maybe I haven't bothered telling anyone.
Would love to go to Korea.
Yeah.
Well, it's a weird one to come through because it's always been one of, my husband Wade has always wanted to go to Korea. Yeah. Well, it's a weird one to come through
because it's always been one of my husband Wade has always wanted to go to Korea so
much and then when I got the offer he's like, oh you gotta go. Well we got two kids and if you
if you buy three tickets for your family to come with you. Yeah. You kind of enjoy
it less because you're
doing that weird juggle of doing daytime stuff with a family and but like trying
to keep your gig head-on and you spend more than you earn. Yeah, yeah it goes
from work to like a stressful holiday. So it seems really selfish but it's just it
makes more sense to put that air those air flight. Yeah, you
Go on a proper holiday with them when you're not working. Yeah, right. Yeah Yeah, yeah and flying and the tickets that you'd be paying that's the expensive bit
Anyway, so we better to do go over for it
Oh, if he was gonna go for an extended period of time when you're not working go another time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
We like yeah, that's that's such a fun thing
that I never thought about comedy,
which is silly to think back on,
but the travel and the weird places you end up in.
Like, Dave and I did Carl's podcast festival in-
You did Thailand. Thailand.
Yeah, that was crazy.
Isn't it fun to need your passport for work?
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
And later this year we're doing a Berlin show.
Are you really?
Yeah.
We're doing a pod in Berlin, yeah.
Really?
That's so great.
Do you need me to come?
And Belfast.
Yeah.
I'll come too, don't worry.
I think Berlin's the most interesting of them.
But Belfast and Dublin and-
No, Belfast is.
But Berlin is really interesting.
It's like, wow.
Yeah, I never would have thought in a million years
we'd be doing anything over there. Yeah, I haven't done heaps, but I've done a couple in
Fiji
Cool and enjoy. Yeah, just enjoy just cuz hopping on an international flight to do your job is such a treat. Yeah
Yeah, I know babe. I don't know much about it, but I believe it's paradise
Yeah, yeah, is that that's like just beautiful beaches and,
oh my God, Han's answer's been in probably for a while.
All right, so we've just been-
Just been enjoying each other's company for nothing.
That's beautiful.
Sorry, Han.
That's all right, I edited it about six times.
It's not where I wanted it to be, but you've got it.
Is it true? It's the worst one isn't it? Like write a convincing essay. I think it's so funny to be like, I'm not happy with it.
It's just, this is a nonsense podcast. It's just a game. It could be better.
I just throw it in now this one. Just put it in. Yeah, just sort of you try.
I just sort of start typing wherever it goes and I go, that sounds like a good sentence.
What Dave does is he gets in a, what's the word, frugestate or something?
Fugestate.
Dave's a little bit different from the fugestate.
He does a frugestate.
It's kind of a combination between a comatose state and a frozen yogurt.
Yeah, yeah.
Whilst being frugal.
Homemade, yeah.
