Welcome to Who Knew It with Matt Stewart, the show where the guests write the wrong answers.
I'm the titular Matt Stewart and our first guest is host of Shut Up A Second, it's Cass Page.
It's true.
And our second guest is coming in live from across the ditch.
He's host of the Cult Popture podcast.
It's AJ.
Hello.
Hi, I'm here from across the Dutchutch that's how you say i say it
well finally you're speaking normal normal kiwi uh the dutch what is what that's what
what is the it's the tasman sea right i guess so yeah well it Well, it's the, yeah, the Tasman, yeah. I was going to, I almost just demonstrated my very, very loose handle on geography and
it's like, he already said Tasman, just say yes.
That'll do.
Cass, do you want to jump in here and say we're wrong?
Or do you want to go with, you can either go with me or you can go your own way.
What do you want to lock in?
I do know that the sea
Is between where we are
And where you are
So in a way it could be all of the seas
How do they say where the sea ends
That's a good point
It's all one ocean
It's all the wet maybe
We gotta go back
Get rid of those borders in the sea
Yeah, Sea borders.
Super continent.
Oh, yeah.
Super wet continent.
Yes.
Oh, man.
I mean, really, isn't that all the ocean is, a wet continent?
I think so, yeah.
Yeah.
How do we know that, you know, we're putting so much emphasis on land because we live there.
But that's what the fish feel about where we live.
You know, the sea is their super continent
The fish probably call land the ocean
Yeah, because they're like, oh, you know, you go up there, it's fun to visit
But if you stay up there too long, you die
We can't bring it up there
Yeah, exactly
There's a theory, one theory of why we haven't seen extraterrestrial life
Or haven't been visited by it
Is because other worlds that have life would be water worlds
and they can't leave the water, right?
Well, I mean, we did.
Holy shit. They can't be that super intelligent if they've not even figured out
how to grow legs. Okay, that is a wow. We figured it out.
Whales figured it out. Whales went back.
Yeah, that's sick. That's the thing.
Maybe the aliens have gone
back because what is
arriving on land given us humans?
It's brought nothing but hardship
and terror. It's destroying the world.
We must return to the ocean.
That's our future. I think our future is in the sea.
Kevin Costner was right.
Do you know how much money I've spent and time I've wasted moisturizing myself because my skin is dry?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That says enough, doesn't it?
That says.
I'm too dry.
Your body is longing to return to the brand moisture.
Oh, my God.
I'm slicking myself up every day.
I'm buying tinctures and potions.
You yearn for the ocean.
Oh, my God. Every moment that I am buying tinctures and potions. You yearn for the ocean. Oh, my God.
Every moment that I am not wet, I die.
All right.
So, the way the show works is ask a relatively obscure trivia question and our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer.
I then read their answers as well as a real one.
And then they have to guess which one is correct.
Here we go.
Here's question number one.
This comes from listener Nick Dennis from Edders in Pennsylvania.
And Nick's question is, what does the word droid witch mean?
Droid witch?
What does the word droid witch mean?
Can we get some spelling on that?
Yeah.
D-R-O-I-T-W-I-C-H.
Droid witch.
And while they are writing their answers,
I'll explain how the scoring works.
So you get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestant
and another point if you correctly guessed the correct answer.
By the way, I'm also playing as the house
and I've put in two of my own fake answers for each question
and I get a point for each one of those that our guests choose.
So each of us can score up to two points per round,
which seems fair, but it probably actually favors me the house and the house always wins.
So if you've listened to the show over the duration,
uh,
that is more often than not,
not the case.
Uh,
anyway,
our questions come from our great patron supporters.
And if you want to submit a question,
sign up on any level via patrion.com slash do go on pod,
which is linked in the show notes
uh the do go on patreon is that's the network that this podcast is a part of it also includes
shows like primates book cheat and would you believe it do go on no relation
you came up with the network name first. Yeah.
All right.
The answers are in.
Here's question number one.
What does the word droid witch mean?
An iconic sandwich from Detroit, which is a slice of square pizza between two slices of rye.
The moist patch left on the sand after a reptile mating session.
A term used by witch hunters when they are not sure if someone is a druid or a witch where you try to move out of the way of someone but just get in their way again
or an illegal move in professional wrestling there are so many illegal moves in professional
wrestling all right name name two tickle okay is that illegal? I think, well, it might not be illegal, but surely it's frowned upon.
Maybe that is the Droid Witch, though.
Biting someone's ear?
I don't think that's allowed.
It's a cover-all term for professional wrestling illegal moves.
So, what do we have?
We had wrestling, a sandwich I really want to try even if it's fake.
I think the rye really sold it to me.
Love rye.
I'm like, oh, that would really break it up.
Yeah, I get that.
You got two different kinds of grain in that one.
Then you've also got the moist patch left on sand after a reptile mating session, term used by witch hunters.
session term used by witch hunters if they're not sure if someone's a druid or a witch uh where you try to move out of the way of someone but just get in their way again and the illegal wrestling move
i gotta go for the uh jizz stain left by reptiles well and i'm the most i don't know if i necessarily
said anything about jizz stain a moist patch could have been the sweat, you know. It could have been the sweat, you're right.
I don't think they do, actually.
They're cold-blooded.
But again, maybe they do, and I shouldn't have tried to correct you.
Cass, what do you want to lock in?
Oh, I reckon there has to be a word for when you are trying to get out of someone's way
and get in someone else's way.
Or you get, you know, you're jumping into each other.
I don't know what that word is, but why not this?
I'll say when you try and get out of the way and get in the way.
Droit witch.
All right.
And did me spelling it out to you rule out any of them like the one with the other spelling of witch in it, perhaps?
It swayed me.
As I'm reading it out, I'm like, no.
It swayed me.
As I'm reading it out, I'm like, no.
I made a mental note not to read out the spelling of that one, but I forgot.
Anyway, that one, the term for witch hunters, that was written by Nick, a.k.a. The House.
The House also wrote the one about that delicious sounding pizza from Detroit, which I agree. I mean i wrote it i wrote it for me i want
it because i'm imagining it's only the so because you've got two layers of bread i imagine you're
you're getting all middle of pizza in that square right and i think that i think their square pizzas
are like a deeper like a cheesier pizza as well the detroit's there's a detroit style yeah yeah i know chicago's the
the square ones yeah yeah yeah yeah totally different i think uh because there are squares
i'm hearing that yeah fully changes the texture of how a pizza is it's gonna cook okay why are
you laughing i'm being serious here it's all the same after you eat it it's the same shape geez this guy philosophical aj an illegal move in professional wrestling that
was aj yeah let me explain here i nearly described the move then i thought if i describe the move
that like if i don't describe the move it might sound like it's you know when we're writing
our next answers matt will then describe what the move is so i was like oh it's a strategic but then
the first one was a description of a sandwich and i was like okay i probably should have been a bit
more creative there and described it uh well i thought it was fantastic all the same thanks so
much what move were you going to have it be illegal?
Oh, it was what I said when I was very subtly trying to not give away that it was me that wrote it.
As it's like a catch-all term for an illegal move.
It was a bad answer.
I'm off to a bad start.
I'll admit it.
I'm man enough to admit that.
That's fine.
Well, AJ, you picked the moist patch left on sand
By a reptile
A reptile
That was Cass Page
Oh my gosh
Wet rips
Can I call you Cass?
A lot of people do
A wet stain
It was right there in front of me
We've just been talking about wetness
For like 10 minutes
I thought that as I read it out i'm like someone's got wet on the brain
someone yearns for a moist patch of her own
and that means cass you are correct it's where you try to move out of the way of someone but
just get in their way again that is excellent to know that I now have a word for that
thing that I do. Everyone
does it. Everyone. Everyone does it.
I do that all the time. It's one of my
favourite moves. Always feels
really good.
Legal in wrestling though. Sorry. Yes.
You have to contact each other.
Not a droid witch in wrestling.
No, no. Alright, after
one round, it is Cass on two points
AJ on no points
The house on no points
Here is question number two
This one comes from Betsy N from California
Oh fun name
It is a fun name
And Betsy's question is
What song was released by blues musician Blind Lemon Jefferson
In October of 1927
Blind Lemon Jefferson in October of 1927. Blind Lemon Jefferson.
That song was released by a blues musician, Blind Lemon Jefferson, in October of 1927.
And while you're writing your answers, here's some more info on Droit Witch.
Nick writes,
In the fictional dictionary, the meaning of liff, written by Douglas Adams and John Lloyd,
the word Droit Witch is defined as a street dance.
The two partners approach from opposite directions and try to politely get out of each other's way.
They step to the left, step to the right, apologize, step to the left again, apologize again,
bump into each other and repeat as often as necessary or unnecessary, it says.
This book is a dictionary of things that aren't uh there
aren't any words for yet based off a game adams played in school instead of coming up with original
words you would just take the name of a place and come up with an interesting definition for it
other fun words include abilene the pleasing coolness on the reverse side of a pillow
that's a good one diddling which i think hasn't that hasn't that hasn't we know what that
is but anyway adams calls it the process of trying to work out who did it with uh when reading a
whodunit and trying to keep your options open so that when you find out you can allow yourself to
think you knew all along nick said he tried to find other instances of the phenomenon being given
a name but the only one he could find was from the Simpsons, and it didn't quite give it a name.
But in episode 12 of season 18, Little Big Girl, Lisa wants to bring something interesting to the school's multicultural day, saying that the Simpson family heritage is boring. invents a Native American tribe called Hitachi, and one of the facts she gives in her presentation
is that the Hitachi tribe has seven names for that thing
where you're walking and someone's walking towards you
and you each try to step aside, but you both go the same way
and you do it again and again until one of you just scoots around,
but they never actually gave it a name.
But there you go.
If only they'd read Douglas douglas adams's yeah meaning of left
yeah i mean the simpsons invent lots of words as well so i'm surprised they didn't just go for
another sort of culturally touchstone uh you know made up word they're like cromulent and
embiggen or whatever those words oh right it's cr Is cromulent one of theirs? I think so.
What is it?
Embiggen and...
Is it cromulent?
Which is like, it's a perfectly cromulent word.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There you go.
Yes, cromulent.
Acceptable or adequate.
Yeah, yeah.
There you go.
All right.
The answers are in for question number two what song was released by blues
musician blind lemon jefferson in october of 1927 watching the puddles gather rain
i got them top hat blues while my guitar is being repaired Please enjoy this knee slapping solo Apples to oranges
And back to the tree
See that my grave is kept clean
Wow
What a range of tunes here
What a great EP this would make
Big fan of see that my grave is kept clean
Yeah yeah
I like what was the guitar one while my
guitar is being repaired please enjoy this knee slapping solo i like that one because it starts
out sounding like while my guitar gently weeps and he takes a sharp lip turn do you think this
is where george harrison got his inspiration yeah He's like, blow my guitar, yes, yes. Yes, yes.
Didn't stick the landing, it's alright.
They did, I mean,
the Beatles did borrow a lot of ideas. There you go.
Did they give them back? Yeah, I think
they gave them back. They're all out there in the public domain
now, if you want any Beatles stuff
I think you should be pretty right to grab it.
In fact, just let's play
a Beatles song right now on this podcast.
It's fine.
I think if they owned their own music still, it probably would be okay.
Sure, yeah.
Otherwise, you could call it a little hypocritical, maybe.
Sorry to get political.
I think AJ went first the first time.
Do you want to have a go, Cass?
Okay, what were they again?
Watching the puddles gather rain.
Wet, big fan.
True.
I got them top hat blues while my guitar's being repaired.
Please enjoy this knee slapping solo.
Apples to oranges and back to the tree and back to the tree in brackets.
Or see that my grave is kept clean.
See, this is, it's your's your turn cast but i just want to
say this is why i become kind of bad at the game because i start trying to like approach it from a
meta angle and i'm like only two of those are funny or two or three of them are funny and the
others are just like legitimately interesting sounding songs and i'm like would someone submit a question if the answer wasn't funny you know what i mean
i think interesting is enough yeah okay okay maybe yeah it depends like there's a bit of a range
funny i think ideally funny but there's sometimes you got to go for interesting.
I'm going to go the top hat one.
The grave one is like a good instruction to give out, but I reckon I'm going to go top hat.
Top hat for Cass.
If the graveyard one is fake, I'm stealing it for something I make in the future.
I reckon I want to go apples to oranges and back to the tree.
That compels me.
All right. Locking that in for AJ to oranges and back to the tree. That compels me. All right.
Locking that in for AJ.
Here's who wrote the answers.
Watching the puddles gather rain.
That was written by Betsy, a.k.a. The House,
and was actually taken from an existing song by Blind Melon.
Betsy having a bit of fun there.
Blind Lemon, Blind Melon.
I made that connection when you first said Blind Lemon,
but then didn't stretch that connection to watching the puddles gather rain.
That's funny.
Yeah, I haven't looked it up, but Blind, that's no coincidence,
I'm guessing, Blind Melon.
Probably, yeah.
Because apparently Blind Lemon, he was big.
But Blind Lemon, his birth name was Lemon.
Oh.
Right, right.
Was he blind?
And he was blind.
Was he Lemon? Well, he gets the name then. Yeah. The answer there was hiding in plain. Right, right. Was he blind? And he was blind. Was he Lemon?
Well, he gets the name then.
Yeah.
The answer there was hiding in plain sight really, wasn't it?
While my guitar is being repaired, please enjoy this knee slapping solo.
That was The House.
Really good stuff, Matt.
Yeah.
Big fan.
Cass, you went for I Got Them Top Hat Blues.
That was AJ.
Yeah.
Really well done.
Loved it. Thank you. Thank that was AJ yeah on the board apples to oranges and back to
the tree which AJ went for that was Cass what a beautiful moment my grave is kept clean now that
can is one of your funny ones or interesting or what? Well, that's the thing. I don't think that that's particularly funny,
but I think it's a really well-written sentence, you know?
I think it's sort of, yeah, to me that's a pretty fun name for a song
without being funny.
I think maybe fun is the threshold then.
Okay.
I will take it back to just fun.
I'm going to add it to my library.
Nice. It's been covered so many times, which I'm going to add it to my library. Nice.
It's been covered so many times, which I'll tell the listeners about in a second.
And, yeah, apparently his singing style and playing was quite unique, so much so that his contemporaries, the ones coming up underneath him, didn't really even try to emulate because it was too difficult.
really even try to emulate because it was too difficult so he he sort of didn't influence the music at the time but in in the generations later a bunch of big names did start like covering him
and um which is yeah i've never heard of him before but kind of a fun story fun that's the
base level hey as long as we're having fun there's you having fun are you guys having fun
all right here's question number three this one comes from tamara pots from perth i was hanging
out with tamara just a couple of weeks ago all right so tamara's question is what is the real
name of a small bird native to the south island of New Zealand. Oh! Oh! Oh!
Advantage!
Advantage!
As I read this out, I think,
because I've been holding this question back for a while
thinking I like this one for a Cass episode.
It's been highlighted in my notes for a while.
And then as I read it out, I think,
not the ideal other guests to have on that episode, probably.
That's all right.
I'll get truck.
But you also, maybe there's a clue in there
For you that I think this is
A Cass appropriate question
I'm touched and honoured and I
I recently bought
I went overseas and one of the things I bought
Myself was old prints of birds that had funny
Names it was a bunch of
Bunch of different birds that were tits and then
A bunch of different birds that were peckers
Nice They're all drawn and they're like all the A bunch of different birds that were tits and then a bunch of different birds that were peckers.
Nice.
Wow.
They're all drawn and they're like, all the tits are in one page and all the peckers are together.
It's this beautiful black and white old print from the 1800s.
That is beautiful.
It's really beautiful.
Can you send us a picture so I can post it?
I will.
I will happily send you my tits and peckers.
All right.
While you're writing your answer about these small Kiwi birds, but not Kiwis, I'll let the audience know a bit more about Blind Lemon.
According to Betsy, Blind Lemon Jefferson's real name is Lemon Henry Jefferson, which
is such a freaking great name.
And he was born blind and learned to play guitar in his early teens.
Bob Dylan recorded this song for his 1962 debut album, Bob Dylan.
He recorded it again with the band, which is included on the basement tapes.
Other artists to cover the song include BB King, Peter, Paul and Mary,
Canned Heat, The Grateful Dead, Lou Reed and Mavis Staples.
And there's a long list, but they're some of the bigger names.
Staples' version of the song came from her 2015 album, Your Good Fortune,
and it won the 2016 Grammy Award for Best American Roots Performance.
So, he's winning Grammys, you know, 100 years later.
Well, it would have been nice if he were alive for it.
Well, I didn't ever say he wasn't.
Was he?
I haven't looked it up.
Okay. So, he could have been. Who knew it?'t ever say he wasn't. Was he? I don't, I haven't looked it up. Okay. So,
he could have been. Who knew it? Not Matt Stewart on this
occasion. The British
band who we've talked about on this show before
as well, Half Man Half Biscuit, recorded
a parody titled, See That
My Bike's Kept Clean, on their
1997 album. Very funny.
Watched to the bottom of the road. That is funny.
That is, that is weird
our level level I reckon
I'd change Grave to Bike
I bet there's more to it if you hear it
This is an occasion
Where the parody of the song
Just sounds less edgy than the actual
Song you know
Like if you're already starting
With Grave you've got to go
Deeper to be
Cutting edge with that one.
Yeah, I feel like you'd take it to, like, Corpse.
Yeah.
Or something like that.
Or check that my ears are kept clean.
You know, something gross, maybe.
I don't know.
See that my toilet is kept clean.
That's a very 1970s attempt at a parody, I think.
Toilet?
Toilet could work.
AJ, please.
This podcast is for all ages.
All right, the answers are in for question number three.
What is the real name of a small bird native to the South Island of New Zealand?
Where I live.
Yes, okay.
You don't go out much.
You don't look at the birds. You don't ask them their names. You don't go out much. You don't look at the birds.
You don't ask them their names.
I don't know.
I doubt I will know the name.
To be perfectly transparent,
I probably need to brush up on my native bird names, yeah.
And if you do know, you don't have to say.
You will be answering first, though,
so it'll be interesting to see what Cass does with that info.
Okay.
So your options are lanyard
Pipipi
Pipipi
Pipipi
Grug bunnies
The miniature flunge poof
Or the mouse-tailed
Bat-winged parrot beak
Can I get those all again?
Lanyard Pipipi grug bunnies the miniature flange poof or the mouse-tailed bat-winged parrot beak oh my god naming a bird lanyard is the most new zealand
thing i'm so drawn to that it just seems like so and it's specifically like a south island thing too
um oh god so the only one that sounds like a maori bird name was pepepe right but i also
is that just there because it's a bunch of i'm doing this fun funny thing again um i'm gonna i'm gonna go lanyard i think that's hilarious and i hope it's true
okay looking lanyard in for aj uh what are you thinking cass i was thinking pppp how many
how many is it ppp three p's ppp p. I think that sounds like the sweetest name of the bunch,
and I want that to be real.
AJ, even though it sounds like you're not sure if it's real or not,
how would it be pronounced if it was real?
P-P-P.
How is it spelt?
P-I-P-I-P-I.
R-A-E-P-P-P.
P-P-P. Yeah. R-A-E-P-P-P. P-P-P.
Yeah, I think.
All right.
Maybe don't quote me on that.
I don't have to quote you.
Don't worry, we're not recording you or anything.
Yeah, don't quote me.
Don't worry, AJ.
We won't.
I won't quote you.
No, absolutely not.
There may be audio of this out there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Probably worse than a quote.
Well, I can say if it's I, then the multi-i vowel signs are A-E-I-O-U with A-E-I, A-E-I.
So maybe it's pi-pi-pi, maybe?
I don't know.
Pi-pi-pi.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, here's who wrote the answers.
The mouse-tailed bat-winged parrot beak.
That was AJ using his local knowledge there.
house-tailed, bat-winged parrot beak.
That was AJ using his local knowledge there.
Well, it was inspired by a couple of years ago,
a bat won New Zealand Bird of the Year.
And so I went to look at what the name of that bat was.
It's a Maori name that I didn't know how to pronounce and wasn't funny or fun.
So I was like, well, let's skip that.
And I always thought it was so interesting that, like,
two, three years after the world went into a pandemic because of a bat uh a bat what a
comeback story the bat had one bird of the year you know that's beautiful that's really nice uh
so yeah the mouse tailed bat winged parrot beak that was AJ the miniature flunge poof that was
cast am I pronouncing that right yes thank you so much
for checking my my my new zealand bird knowledge told me it wasn't that one because that's not
really the typical way that birds are named here yeah i should have gone with pepepe
now that i'm saying this stuff now that i'm putting my money where my mouth is. Too late, AJ. Grug Bunnies, that was the house.
As was Lanyard.
Oh, fuck.
No.
Lanyard's such a good name.
Meaning, and Lanyard was actually written by Tamara specifically from Perth.
So, I don't know if she has any New Zealand knowledge, but you reckon that was a very accurate...
Yeah, inspired guess.
Like, maybe not typically for naming creatures,
but the idea of promoting, like, a run-of-the-mill object
to the name of something feels very Kiwi.
So, yes, that means that Cass is correct.
It is Pipipi.
Okay.
So, one point to the house, one point to Cass there this round.
Thank you.
And that brings us up to question number four.
I'll tell the listeners a bit more about pipipi soon,
but this one comes from Millie Bailey from Brisbane.
17th century French opera singer and expert swordswoman Julie d'Albigny,
or Le Maupin, was almost sentenced to death for what crime?
Apologies for the pronunciation there.
17th century French opera singer and expert swordswoman
Julie d'Aubigny or Le Maupin, also known as,
was almost sentenced to death for what crime?
While you're writing your answers,
here's a little more information about a pepipi.
According to Tamara, the pepipi is also,
or the pepepi, what did you say aj uh let me i've
got a pronunciation open i just didn't want to play it while you were talking but i'll play it
now we can all hear it pi pipi pi pipi according to this pi pipi according to tamara the Paippi is also known as the brown creeper or New Zealand titmouse.
So, Cass, I mean, its alternative names are so good as well.
The brown creeper.
Brown creeper titmouse?
Brown creeper and New Zealand titmouse.
It's not a tit, it's not a mouse.
Fantastic.
Doesn't creep, is it brown?
Ah, yes.
Fantastic.
Does it creep?
Is it brown?
Ah, yes.
Research shows they use UV light to recognize the eggs of the long-tailed cuckoo when they've been replaced in the nest and they reject those eggs.
In the late 19th century, when food was short, they would descend on slaughter yards in sheep stations and feast on the meat of butchered animals different brown creeper populations have different dialects meaning that for example a population on stewart island will have a slightly
different song than a population at the foothills of mount cook it was discovered that the male
brown creeper would respond more significantly i.e sing louder around the presence of an unknown
bird with the same dialect than to a bird he recognized from a neighboring
territory, which is interesting.
All right, while you're still writing your answers, let's go for a quick break.
As women, our life stages come with unique risk factors, like when our estrogen levels
drop during menopause, causing the risk of heart disease to go up. Know your risks. Visit heartandstroke.ca. All right, and we're back.
And the answers are in for question number four.
17th century French opera singer and expert swordswoman Julie d'Abonie,
a.k.a. La Maupin la malpin la mopan was almost sentenced to death
for what crime arson body snatching and kidnapping after she set fire to a convent to create a
distraction to help her lover escape placing a dead body in her place oh my god where'd she get
the dead body i love her she sounds cool well you should hear the other cool things she's done like
She was charged for indecency and public lewdness
After she kissed a woman on stage
In front of King Louis the 14th
Nice
Great stuff
She was charged with murder
When she performed an opera piece
Where she had written about killing a man who attacked her
Admitting to murder
However she performed this in a church And it fell under the protection of confession.
Wow.
Holy crap.
Treason by way of promoting a Roman made cheese.
In France, sacre bleu.
Or with murder and impersonating a wolf after a bizarre conspiracy blamed her for a spate of wolf maulings.
Okay, so you've got arson, body snatching and kidnapping.
Indecency and public lewdness.
Murder, treason or murder and impersonating a wolf.
What was the full first murder one there uh she performed
an opera piece she had written about killing a man who attacked her admitting to murder however
she performed this in a church and it fell under the protection of confession that's so good i
gotta go that one because that's either that's either the truth or like a good idea for like a movie you know ah any one of these i want to know her
yeah um i want to go cheese treason cheese treason i want to go cheese treason
cheesing cheesing you have committed cheesing the most delicious crime of all
on last week's episode
It was real hot in the studio
And cheese came up again
It's a very cheesy podcast
And we're all talking about what's the most refreshing cheese
It's a tricky question
I don't think we came to an answer
I would say one of the cream based ones
So you know how you can get a brie or a camembert
And it's like pretty yellow inside and it's pretty runny You can get ones that are more On the cream cheese side ones. So, you know how you can get a brie or a camembert and it's, like, pretty yellow inside and it's pretty runny?
You can get ones that are more on the cream cheese side, but they come in a round.
And I've forgotten what they're called, but that's straight out of the fridge.
Oh, yeah.
Put a straw in it.
Slurp it up.
Yeah, I reckon cream cheese is a good one because that's what Cheesecake's made of.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or what about, like, the real gross, gross like processed cheese you buy for school lunches
that are in like little funny shapes. I wouldn't be refreshed by that.
But a real cold one? Oh, a stringer. I see
where you're going. Yep, a stringer is a pretty refreshing cheese. There you go.
I knew you two would have an answer. Alright, let's go through who wrote the answers.
Charged with murder and impersonating a wolf because of a spade of maulings.
That was the house.
Really good stuff, house.
Nice.
Thank you so much.
The house also wrote indecency and public lewdness after she kissed a woman on stage in front of King Louis XIV.
Well, I'm glad that's not true. I wrote both of these because our question writer, Millie,
she wrote two that were real things that Le Maupin did,
and I'll tell you about them after this.
They were also great.
But, yeah, all of this makes me think a full Do Go On podcast report
should be done on there for sure.
Mm-hmm. Treason by way of promoting a Roman-made cheese. I think a full do-go-on podcast report should be done on there for sure.
Treason by way of promoting a Roman-made cheese.
Cass went for that.
That was AJ.
Hello.
Excellent stuff.
I'm the cheesan inventor.
Really good stuff.
Big fan of cheesan.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I hope that catches on if it hasn't already.
Can we quote you on that?
Yeah, yeah, please.
Cheese-based treason.
Murder after performing an opera, admitting she killed a man,
but was performed in church, meaning that it was protected by confession.
That was Cass.
So you again picked each other's.
We should write something together, Cass.
We're on the same page. We both like each other's ideas. write something to give a cast we're on the same page we both like each
other's ideas yeah yeah it's good writing part of the situation and that means the correct answer
is arson body snatching and kidnapping after she set fire to a convent to create a distraction to
help her lover escape placing a dead body in her place wow also a good movie yeah so the dead body
was a nun that just happened to have died there recently.
So, there was a body lying around.
She's like, I've got to use this.
Is anyone using this?
Yeah.
Can I have this?
Can I?
I'm just, yeah.
I'll just, don't worry.
If you need it again, it'll just be over here anyway.
Yeah, it'll be, it's fine.
Nice.
I'm taking its clothes, though.
All right. So, we'm taking its clothes, though. All right.
So, we're up to question number five.
This one comes from one Paul Stewart, my dad, my old man.
Wow.
He gave me this question when we were drinking well into the night on Grand Final Day a week
or so ago.
That's really special.
And we started playing a lot of uh old bands on on
youtube just like switching between and uh this song he loves this song uh whamma jamma
by the jay giles band the live version of it and he goes you know what the harmonica's name is
anyway that's how this question came about what is the stage name of j. Giles Band's harmonica player?
What is the stage name of J. Giles Band's harmonica player?
This is really good.
I'm having a really good time.
I love to hear it, Cass. I'm about to learn a harmonica's name.
A harmonica?
Well, sure.
But the player in particular. Wait, it's not the harmonica Well sure But the player in particular Wait it's not the harmonica
Not the harmonica
The harmonica player's stage name
Oh I thought you
Okay well
But in the fun fact later
I do tell you the name of a harmonica
You invented
So you will get to enjoy that too
Alright I'm back on i'm back
while you're writing your answers here's some more info about la mopin and i reckon really you could
i think you could probably just use whatever you're thinking anyway you'd think that it
would probably translate while you're writing your answers here's some more info about La Mopin According to Millie
Other true stories where she got in trouble include
She duelled and beat three men at the same time
And then after kissing a woman at that same ball
She got into trouble with the law
Another time her lover, the Elector of Bavaria
Declared her insane after she stabbed herself on stage with
a real dagger so i think they're just bird manning yeah nice uh millie also has a an unrelated fun
fact saying despite being considered fancy to many people nowadays mozart composed a piece for six singers that roughly translates to kiss my ass uh there are multiple recordings of it that's fantastic stuff managed
to record it i guess since i wouldn't have been i don't know maybe they were just quoting mozart
on the arson story culture trip writes uh do boni, Her most notorious run-in with the law sounds so absurd
that you could easily mistake it for a legend.
But there's a shocking truth to the seemingly unbelievable tale.
After seducing a local merchant's daughter,
who was then sent to a convert to keep the pair apart,
she forged an incredible plan.
It just so happened that a nun had passed away,
and so she stole the dead body and placed it in her lover's room
before setting the whole convent on fire.
This provided the necessary chaos to elope,
though she was later charged with kidnapping, body snatching, and arson,
and was sentenced to death by fire.
This is great.
But she didn't die?
No, she obviously got out at some point,
which in a future episode of Do Go On On I'm sure I'll tell that whole story
Can I come? That sounds great
This sounds awesome
This should be a movie if it's not already
This sounds awesome
Yeah so good
Sure there's got to be something in it
Anyway yeah I'm looking forward to doing a deep dive on her life
Oh I don't
I can't imagine a situation in which I would set a convent on fire
Also it's not body snatching. She moved it.
Yeah, body moving.
Without a permit, maybe.
But the nun wasn't using it anymore.
Yes.
And they would know better than anyone.
It's a husk.
It's a husk to Christians.
They believe the soul goes when it dies.
Yeah, exactly.
The nun's fine.
Where's the nun at this time?
She's in heaven.
She's got no qualms with it.
Yeah.
What problems does she have with it?
Nun.
Hey.
That's good stuff.
Thank you.
All right.
The answer for question number five.
What is the stage name of J. Giles Band's harmonica player?
Okay.
I really missed.
I misheard that pretty severely.
Here are your options.
The Easy Breezy.
Dirty Baby.
Magic Dick.
Yes.
Jean Shorts Johnny.
Or Whistle Teeth.
I think these are all really great.
These are really good.
What's the dick one again?
Magic dick.
I'm torn between Dirty Baby and Magic Dick.
That's a tough spot to be.
In between Magic Dick and the Dirty Baby.
God, they're perfect.
Do you want to have first crack, Cass?
I've got to go Whistle Teeth.
That's whimsical.
Old Whistle Teeth.
Can I ask how old your dad is, Matt, or what generation he belongs to?
Yes, you can.
He just turned 70 70 so he's
right in the baby boomers yeah right and i know you have a problem with his generation
i know that i know that you do do we i didn't also cast aj as a big
he's got big beef i i got famous on tiktok making fun of boomers about two years ago
nice um i'm gonna go with magic dick because i think a boomer would find magic dick a more
amusing nickname than i think a zoomer would think dirty baby is the funniest name ever
but i think a boomuma thinks magic dick is
obviously more funny what fantastic logic and see the fact the way you can show your workings out
there as an expert of the generations yeah thank you all right let's go through who wrote the
answers the easy breezy that was cass which i think is nice great work it definitely you could
see that being the name of a famous...
That was the one I wrote for the harmonica.
It works.
It works.
I think that works.
Definitely.
There's a great nickname for an old golfer.
A South African golfer called Ernie Ells was the Big Easy, which I think is a good nickname.
I don't really understand what it means.
He just reminds me of such a big egg.
And does it mean that things are easier for him or...
I guess so.
I don't know.
I'm guessing maybe it's like he had an easy, like his swing was easy or something.
Or that he's easy.
Oh, yeah.
I've heard that about golfers.
I think he gets about.
Is that what you mean?
He's a man about town.
Yeah, they spend so much time standing up, they've got to lie down somewhere.
What did you say his real name was?
Ernie Els.
I reckon it's the amount of E's in his name.
Easy. Oh. Ernie Els? I reckon it's the amount of E's in his name.
Easy.
Yeah, it's one of those ones that was right in front of us all along.
Okay, maybe I don't like it. I'm turning around then.
I'm putting it behind me.
It would have started as Big E, you know?
Oh, here's Big E, come along.
Oh, Big E's?
Where's Big E's golf club?
Oh, Big E's.
It's so often when you hear the background story to a nickname,
they become less good of nicknames
Yeah, wait till you hear what AJ stands for
It's not exciting at all
Dirty Baby was the house
Nice
And yeah, you're right
Because there was family around
And it was a younger generation person who came up with that one
So
There you go
Really? Wow
What immaculate logic you had there
uh jean shorts johnny that was also the house that was me do you does that seem like something
like an an old millennial might come up with the jean shorts johnny absolutely dude i definitely
had a time in my life where me and my brother were trying to rename the cat Jean Shaw. Beautiful name
for a boy or a girl or a cat.
Whistle Teeth, which
Cass went for, that was AJ.
Yeah!
And Magic Dick was correct, so...
Yes!
Your logic was flawless there.
Oh my god, you nailed it.
Thanks so much.
How did you clock all the generations?
That was impressive.
I just figured, like, what's a, like, classic Aussie dad going to think?
Because it's funny enough to say to your adult son,
you know what the harmonica player's called, you know?
After 12 beers?
And it's got to be magic.
Yeah, exactly.
Have a bit of fun?
Because, Matt, he'll have told A million people that
You know whenever their band comes up
In conversation he'll have told the person
Closest to them
We've talked about that band and that song in particular so many times
We always play it when we're drinking
And he's never mentioned it before
I'm like he's been holding out on me
Yeah
Fun fact
Alright we're up to The second last question here Question number six holding out on me here. Ah, fun fact.
All right, we're up to the second last question here.
Question number six comes from Matthew Ball from Kalauna in British Columbia.
And the question is, what annual event happens in Trento, Italy on June the 19th?
What annual event happens in Trento, Italy on June the 19th?
Quick score update after five rounds.
It's the house on one point,
AJ on four points, but down front on
five points, it's Caspage.
Oh!
While you're writing your answers,
here's a bit more info about Magic Dick.
He was born Richard Salwitz
on the 13th of May, 1945.
As well as the harmonica, Dick
plays the trumpet and saxophone.
Magic Dick was one of the founders of the J. Giles
band in 1965 and has
been involved with every incarnation of
the band since. His harmonica
playing was one of the most distinctive elements
of the J. Giles band's
sound through their hard rock period
of the 70s before
possibly their better known phase or
maybe just to me in the 80s when they had hits like freeze frame and centerfold i think that's
the era where they were sort of having top 10 hits but um i think they're probably equally well
known for both uh his performance of whamma jamma and you're gonna have to after the we stop
recording aj look up whamma jamma live. I will, I will.
Live at Full House.
And you can chuckle to yourself as you leave.
I'll say to my flatmate.
Can you do the most niche ever TikTok video about the generations reacting to finding out the Jay Gulls band's harmonicas?
That would be really funny, actually.
Let's do it.
You've got to release it next week after this pod comes out and everyone should go to What's your handle on TikTok?
AJ and HD
AJ and HD and that's the same as
On Twitter and stuff isn't it?
If you do that let me know
And we'll have to yeah everyone should go to his account
And make sure you gotta keep him
Accountable
Cause AJ is flaky as shit um in a hiatus for of the band he created
a harmonica designed of his own called yeah it's not that great the magic harmonica at least it's
not the dick harmonica and he got a patent for it uh with co-inventor Pierre Beauregard.
Apparently, he's often referred to as Magic Dick and his Lickin' Stick.
Which I don't know.
That's bringing it down some generations, I reckon.
Lickin' Stick.
All right.
I can get behind that.
All right.
The answer in for question number six.
What annual event happens in Trento, Italy on June the 19th?
A festival dating back to the 19th century where they would dip the same apple into toffee each year, making it slightly larger year on year.
The end of the festival would be marked by the mayor giving the apple a lick.
Local butchers compete to make the longest salamis.
In a cheeky tradition, the winner stands behind their winning entry, so it looks like an extension of their manhood.
Yes.
A jury sentences a local, usually a politician, to be locked in a cage and dunked in the river.
The Swat Fair.
At the height of summer, the townspeople spend one day swatting fruit flies and other bugs off the wine grapes.
Or finally, cat senses.
That's it?
Wow, do you need any more explanation?
Not at all. Cat senses.
Make sure you're honest on your cat senses, people.
It's going to improve them. How many cats are living in your apartment tonight or staying there yeah yeah and that includes the ones under the house
you have to include your neighbor's cat who has worked out that if they go to your house you'll
also feed them yeah that's a dependent yeah the one that the one that uses uh your house as a kitty litter.
Yeah.
Cheers, cat.
What are we thinking here?
Anyone have any Inklings?
I feel like the dick answer last round did me well,
so I might go for the salami manhood answer this time.
You're going to stick with dick?
Yeah, there were licks and dicks in the first two.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
All right, so you've got the Toffee Apple Festival, the Salami Festival, the jury dunking
someone in a cage to the river, the Fruit Fly Swatting Festival, or the Cat Census?
I was going to go salami, but we are foes so maybe cat sense
all right locking that in yeah here's who wrote the answers uh the toffee apple festival that was
written by the house i wrote that while you were writing your answer as well so the lick was not a
coincidence there oh good that's cool to know.
But I also thought, well, they won't know that I'm writing it now.
I didn't.
I was like, that's crazy.
We were just talking about lick dicks.
The Swap Fair, where they would swap flyers and flot swires.
That was Cass.
Twas I.
Twas I.
Cat Census, which Cass went for. That was AJ. Yes. T'was I T'was I Cat census which cats
Went for
That was AJ
Really good stuff
That's ruined my life
I'm always going to want the cat census
After so many long winded ones
And then it's just a two word poem
And AJ went for local butchers with the salamis.
That was the house.
Oh, my God, it was the dunk.
In particular, Matthew Boar.
So, the correct answer is a jury sentences a local,
usually a politician, to be locked in a cage and dunked in the river.
And they bring them back out, I guess.
Does dunk infer the resurfacing or is that just going they dunk three
times and it goes back to like quite an old tradition i bet yeah uh used that sounds modern
it was a genuine punishment in the 14th of the 17th century now they do it sort of as a bit of
a nod to that where it's a bit more comical and whatnot. I would hate that.
Despite talking about how much we want to return to the ocean, I actually hate being
underwater.
Oh, yeah.
It's because they're bringing me back up.
Yeah, yeah.
If they were just dunking us.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
It wasn't a dunk.
It was a plunge.
A true return.
A plunge.
Very good.
Yeah.
Speaking of plunges, I guess, here is the final question.
of plunges, I guess.
Here is the final question.
This one comes from Melissa Gussie from Maynard in Iowa in the United States.
And we always finish with a film plot synopsis, normally about two, three sentences long.
And it is, what is the synopsis of the 1998 film No More Baths?
What is the synopsis of the 1998 film No More Baths?
It's a bit tricky.
You're both cinephiles, so hopefully neither of you heard of this one.
I think it's pretty obscure.
While you're writing your answers, here's some more info about the annual dunking.
According to Jessica Stewart, writing for My Modern Met,
In the northern Italian city of Trento, an annual tradition leaves local politicians shaking in their boots the tonka is a comical reenacting of an ancient punishment used from
the 14th to the 17th century in which one person is placed in a cage and dunked in the freezing
waters of the adage the second longest river in italy the tradition is part of the Festi Vigilani, which is a week-long celebration of the town's patron saint that takes place in late June.
While many could probably name a few politicians who could use a refreshing dunk, there is a traditional ritual in selecting who deserves
this honor prior to the event the court of penance or the tribunale di penitenza i've been doing a
bit of duolingo is held publicly this spectacle is a comedic satire in which members of the court
nominate people and state their cases for doing so there is a judge defense attorney prosecutor
and even someone who plays the role of the accused while those are nominated aren't blasphemers which
is whom the original punishment was reserved for they have done something over the course of the
year that was scandalous or newsworthy very often politicians are nominated but that's not always
the case for example uh recent nominees include the last four presidents of the province
for their role in delaying a new hospital,
as well as a nurse who was charged
with falsifying the results of COVID tests.
And people aren't always put up for the punishment
due to serious offences.
Two other politicians were nominated last year
for their opposition to a concert
by popular Italian singer-songwriter Vasco Rossi.
The official verdict of the court is announced a few days later,
and at that time, whoever was deemed the worst of the worst must take their place inside the cage.
They're then ceremoniously dunked in the river three times, just as in the past.
But don't worry, the ritual is all in good fun.
Through humour, locals honor their past
while also holding accountable those who have done something not in keeping with how locals
from trento should act i think that sounds like pretty smart way to pretty smart way to keep
people in line you know uh all right here is the final question what is the synopsis of the 1998 film no more
baths jane stroud is struggling to make ends meet when out of the blue she inherits a mansion from
a distant uncle on her second night in the house she decides to take a long soak in the ornate tub
but there she sees a ghostly apparition committing there and then to never take a bath again but will that be enough
to stop the hauntings an animated film about a little boy who does not want to have a bath
so he runs away from home to live in a landfill after befriending the local vermin including a
raccoon named big bad larry the dirty boy leads an uprising against the pro bath society which
they refer to as the cleans jake lets the children play at his home and tell stories of his role in
the civil rights movement a developer wants to have the elderly jake evicted from his home to
increase real estate value so the kids decide to go on a bath strike a A Belgian anthology film that includes 12 shorts
written and directed by the country's oddest minds,
including one story where a donkey is elected mayor
and another where a time traveller arrives
in a future utopian society.
Everything is perfect, apart from one thing.
No one bathes.
Or finally, after completing a school project
on the woman's strike in Europe, 10-year-old military kid Kelsey convinces all of the military kids on her street to go on strike so that their dads come home.
All right.
So, you've got the bathtub haunting.
You've got the animated dirty boy who lives in landfill.
You've got the animated Dirty Boy lives in landfill.
You've got old civil rights activist Jake being kicked out by developers.
You've got the Belgian anthology film.
Or you've got the women's strike in Europe leading to the military kids going on strike.
Do we have a year?
Did you say a year that this film came out?
Yes, 98. 98. 98 okay I'm going with Belgium
anthology film that sounds like the
exact kind of thing that would come out
of Belgium in 1990 oh and I should say
this round is worth triple points oh oh
so it's truly still anyone's game. I would have tried harder.
Yes.
So, I mean, I'd still just say go for the one you think is right, AJ.
Yeah, I reckon Belgium.
Belgium anthology film.
All right.
What are you thinking, Cass? Oh, I was going to go with the anthology film purely because of the donkey becoming mayor.
Join me, Cass. Go join me cass go for it go for it we we now both know that neither of us wrote it because we're both guessing it right yeah okay i've never done this let's let's unite at the final post yeah
exactly done okay we're going donkey if you if you this, it means AJ can't win because you've got to lay it on him.
Is that what you...
When I said join me, Cass, I was more meaning, like, in spirit.
Okay, okay.
I'll join you in spirit only.
It's fine.
It's fine.
You can do it.
Okay.
No, if we both get it, then we both win.
Okay.
You want to change the rules too?
Yeah.
It seems right.
Okay. In the spirit of all the wonderful writer's strike successes, we're going to share in
the spoils here.
Okay.
We kept picking each other's things.
We did.
It's only right that we hold hands and cross this line together.
That's beautiful.
Never knew I was going to get emotional at the end here.
All right.
Here's who wrote the answers.
Jane Stroud, struggling to make ends meet, gets haunted in the bath
That was written by Melissa, aka The House
Melissa wrote a lot shorter
I'd flubbed it out a lot and probably made it
Less believable
Let me read what
Melissa actually wrote, it was pretty fun
It was very short and to the point
So So when people um suggest their
uh questions there's also a bit where they can um write uh fake answers so melissa wrote matt
i'm bad at this help me out lol i'm not even sure if this is a good question i'm sorry
and they wrote a horror film what about a horror film about someone seeing a
ghost in their tub but so they decide never to take a bath again i'm like that's great and then
i just flowered it out to the point where i don't think either of you even considered it
no it was good it was good i wrote the word apparition
uh the animated film about the little boy
Who does not want to have a bath and lives in landfill
That was AJ
I can see that being made
I can see that being made
Cass wrote the one about the
10 year old military kid
Kelsey who convinces the other military
Kids on her street to go on strike
I liked that angle, Cass.
I like making it a strike statement.
That was good.
Thank you.
Yeah.
So, two answers left here.
The Belgian anthology and Jake, the civil rights activist.
The Belgian anthology, that was written by the house.
No!
Meaning the correct answer is Jake lets the children play at his home
and tell stories
of his role in the civil rights movement.
The developer comes in and the kids go on a bath strike.
It was the other bath strike one.
Oh, no.
I was tapping into something real.
But hey, at least we ended on a wet question.
It was a wet question.
You're right.
It's not a small ocean.
You're so right matt really well
done on that belgian anthology thank you so much oh yeah i um i didn't know if it sounded believable
but was it the belgian part that made you go those belgians could european 90s cinema in general is
very like i don't know that just fit that would fit right home and and that era i think uh
at the so i mean as a as a movie maker yourself aj feel free to put that vision to it's going to be
hard for you to make it as a belgian anthology but in the 90s you can do it thank you so much
you could do it as a you know that could be the conceit actually i'm actually directing a short
film this month that's set in the 90s and boy are we not being very stringent with with everyone's using smartphones
yeah yeah i reckon we're gonna get to the editor there'll be some like major like obvious thing
that's not in real in the 90s the real film only hasn't got a lot of reviews or anything accessible
it's got a 45 audience uh score from Rotten Tomatoes.
On your website, you work for Letterboxd, don't you, AJ?
Yeah, yeah.
Here's a couple of quick ones from there.
Charlie gives it one and a half stars saying,
going to show this to my kids when they're five years old
is the first step to radicalising them.
Okay.
This is classic Letterboxd review shit.
This is what they're all like
Avant emoji gives it one and a half stars
While saying
Like confused faced emoji
And also what happened to the dog
So yeah so it sounds like it could be pretty good
Someone else said
How woke the kids are
Ah very nice
Sounds good Here's the final score check
i can't believe this he's come from the clouds here uh in third place on four points it's aj
in second place on six points it's cast but for the first time in a long time outright winner on
eight points it's the house damn we got housed absolutely housed. Yeah. I can't believe it.
The triple points, both of you go for it.
That's unprecedented.
Yeah.
I kind of tried to get you to change your answer, but...
I never even considered that this would mean the house would win.
Yeah.
Go on.
Well, I feel uncomfortable.
Anyway, thanks, you two, for coming and letting me win again.
Great job on winning.
Hey, everybody.
Claps for Matt.
Snaps for Matt for winning.
Thank you so much.
That feels fantastic.
Before we go, Cass, where can people find you?
You can find me on the Sandspants Radio Network.
So, sandspantsradio.com.

Yep you can listen to my podcast
called Cult Popture. We
cover a different film franchise every
fortnight. We just got through all of
the Star Trek films. Oh god
what a slog. There's so
many. We split it over because
there's three generations so we did three fortnights oh my god instead of one um we're
about to start uh on the butterfly effect trilogy which not a lot of people know as a trilogy or
just not a lot of people know about that film either so i remember ashton kutcher
yeah but i didn't know it was a trilogy yeah yeah he's not in any of the others and ashton Kutcher did one. Ashton Kutcher, yeah. But I didn't know it was a trilogy. Yeah, yeah. He's not in any of the others.
And Ashton Kutcher, so on topic right now, right?
Like the best time in history to be covering an Ashton Kutcher-led franchise.
Sorry, are you punking us right now?
Thanks so much for joining us, you two.
And hey, listeners, why don't you give us a five-star review?
We've been getting a bunch of them lately,
and they've been making me feel real warm inside.
Nice.
And if you think you know of anyone who might enjoy this show please let them know cheers for tuning
in to who knew with matt stewart and now that you know it i've been matt show it goodbye
hey jay you i mean i nearly always trust your thoughts and I think you should always correct me.
Please always feel free to do that.
All right.
No matter what.
Even if it's in one of my pet categories.
Okay.
What's your pet category?
Yeah.
Oh, I don't know.
Yeah, that makes it hard.
I'll just try to correct you on every front from here on out then.
What about the St Kilda Football Club?
Oh, something.
I mean, I did edit a five-hour podcast recently about the St Kilda Football Club, so I've retained a bit of knowledge.
Oh, that's funny.
Five hours?
Yeah.
You just beat records every week, aren't you?
You do go on record.
yeah you just beat in records yeah every week you do go on record i didn't even i knew the tits were funny but i didn't even recognize that the other ones were
peckers as well until i showed someone else they're like ah tits and peckers i'm like ah
peckers yeah peckers not a big i don't really hear peckers that feels like more of an american
yeah term you only really hear it if you are trying to buy dick paraphernalia for a hen's night.
Right.
Because no one's putting dick on their stuff, but it's all like pecker.
Oh, yeah.
A pecker straw, pecker lipstick.
There's a like a famous bit of stand up from decades ago where someone's impersonating.
Maybe it's I can't remember who it is, but they're impersonating white men like hey get over here packer head
that's what you sound like
that's good stuff
what a comeback story the bat had at one bird of the year you know that's beautiful i love that
that's really nice same year as the batman and morbius came out as
well so bats have had a big swing back since like is morbius about a bat he's a vampire it's about
a man who is injected with bat dna something that in real life caused the pandemic and then they
made a movie where it didn't happen and bat like surely he should be called Batman. That feels like I think you get to take the title.
Yeah.
Oh, the other guy went first.
Oh, went first.
But do you have any bat DNA?
Yeah.
You're a man, man.
Okay.
That seems rude.
I'm glad.
Well, he went with Morbius, right?
Yeah.
Well, that was just his name.
The living vampire, I guess, is his superhero name.
So he didn't die.
Is he also the guy from The Matrix, Morbius?
Morpheus.
Oh, Morpheus.
Are they related?
No.
Yeah, and that is how words work.
Just double checking.
Are you familiar with the-
Is it a problem to ask questions now?
Are you familiar with the Batman villain Man-Bat?
Because he is, I believe, got bat DNA.
It's a good who knew it question if I didn't just spoil it just then that's great but man bat is in fact
a batman villain that's that's like more bat than man if you can picture that man bat that's fun all
right should have gone with my gut should have gone with the obvious Toreo bird name, I think.
It's the least that I've learned here.
And you've never, so you haven't heard of that bird?
No.
I was thinking, oh, I wonder how common it is.
No, I looked it up as well.
I don't think I've ever seen it either.
Right.
It looks pretty nondescript.
It's been in, yeah, I don't know.
I just thought it was a real, just a real nice sounding name for a bird, which I thought
Cass would enjoy.
Cass really likes nice sounding things.
She's very unique in that way.
Yeah, I'm special and different.
No, it's why I come on this podcast.
This might be.
That's nice to listen to.
I think this might be our, yeah, this might be our record for most gentle energy on one
podcast.
Oh, how beautiful. it's very beautiful we got an ice off
who will win because they keep bleeding the other one oh we're bringing you'd be you you two would
do that dance down the street forever no you, you go. Sorry. Detroit Witch.
No, Detroit Witch.
Detroit Witch.
I'm thinking of that pizza again. I'm thinking of that pizza sandwich.
You remember, have you seen that when Richard Nixon was running for president,
there were campaign slogans that were like,
they'll never lick our dick.
It was like, lickers and beat
and yeah i guess dick didn't mean what it means now back then oh so yeah that that wasn't even
meant to be a pun yeah just meant to rhyme yeah and what did lick mean back then like uh beat
defeat i guess yeah like you you would you would get your licks in, your punches in, right?
Am I making stuff up or is this real?
No, I heard that when people talk about getting a lick in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, something different today, but.
Yeah.
All right, here's question number three.
This one comes from Tamara Potts from Perth.
I was hanging out with Tamara just a couple of weeks ago.
Nice.
Brag.
She bought me a cocktail.
Oh, what did you get?
Espresso martini.
That's fun, though.
Sea fun.
Yeah, that's fun.
It's not funny.
No, it's not funny.
It's not a funny cocktail.
It's no six on the beach.
Yes, exactly. There's a six on the beach. Yes, exactly.
There's a slight embarrassment when you're like, can I have the one that probably most people get?
You know what I mean?
But most people get it because it's really nice.
Yeah, that's the thing, isn't it?
And it's essentially a Jager bomb, but you're an adult.
That's classy Jager bomb.
Nice.
Yeah, it's a vodka Red Bull.
After dark.
Nice.
Yeah, it's a vodka Red Bull.
After dark.
Oh, do we need it?
Let's do the sing.
Can I sing it or do you want to sing it?
You go for it, man.
So no one told me life was going to be this way.
There we go.
AJ told me that. Cass, do you think that that voice sounded like me having just met me did the
voice matt just did that wasn't you can you can you do this do the song as well just so
maybe at the end of the episode we'll put back to back okay see if if people can tell and i'll be
which one's which all right yeah that sounds good do you want me to do it now? Yeah, go for it now.
Okay.
So no one told you life was going to be this way.
I can't tell the difference.
Wait, that wasn't Matt again. as women our life stages come with unique risk factors like high blood pressure developed during
pregnancy which can put us two times more at risk of heart disease or stroke know your risks
