Starting point is 00:00:43 please. Alright I'll see you soon. Now on with the show. ["Syndrome on Fire"] Welcome to Who Knew with Matt Stewart, the show where the guests write the wrong answers. I'm the titular Matt Stewart. And our first guest is a regular on the show, also the host of the Good Tucker program on
Starting point is 00:01:05 SBS at Soren Jai Mana. It is a program and that's me, Soren Jai Mana. Hello. I'm sure they'll, Connor will edit out the long pause I did there when I couldn't, I don't know what I was pausing for but the sentence I was reading didn't make sense. Anyway, it's so good to have a long term player on the show because we've got a couple of first timers on. Now our second guest this week is from Australia's Got Talent and thank God you're here, it's He Huang.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Hello everyone, my name is He Huang. I'm here, yay! And our third and final guest is an Augie award-winning writer and performer whose recent writing credits include the Batuta advocate, it's Penny Greenhalgh. Hello. It's almost, almost correct. I look, I am like very good friends with Saran and I've only recently started saying his name right. So just gotta give me 10 years. You do have a full compliment of difficult names today, I think. Penny Greenholdge, Saren Jomana and Good Tucker, the program. All hard to say.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Well, as I was, I nailed her, Hwang, right? You did nail her, Hwang. Yeah, you did. That's great. That was the easy one. All right. So the way this show works is I ask a relatively obscure trivia question. Our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer. I then read their answers as well as the real one, and they have to guess which one is correct. And the first question comes from listener Kayla Hodquitz from Lemoyne in Maine.
Starting point is 00:02:34 And Kayla's question is, what does thornback mean? What does thornback mean? While you're writing your answers, I'll explain to the listeners how the scoring works. So you get a point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestants and another point if you're correctly guess the answer By the way, I'm also playing as the house I've put into a moment fake answers for each question and I'll get a point for each one of those that I guess choose So each of us could score up to three points for around it seems fair
Starting point is 00:03:00 But the probability actually favors me the house and the house always wins So if you've listened to previous episodes you'll know that is rarely even the case and for that reason anyway contestants now get triple points in the final round. Our questions do come from our great patreon supporters if you want to submit a question sign up on any level via patreon.com slash do go on pod which is linked in the show notes. All right, the answer for question number one, what does thornback mean? Flowers having sex without condoms. A colorful Amazonian bird whose head plumage is so long
Starting point is 00:03:36 that it's so long and full that it extends down its whole body making it look like it has back spikes. What? That's so elaborate. When your Valentine breaks up with you on February 15th and you ask for them to return the roses you got for them, but as they are going to hand them to you, they stumble and plunge a thorn into your back. Wow.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I thought that last one was elaborate, Penny. Um, a breed of hunting dog, a word used in the 17th century to refer to an unmarried woman over the age of 25, or actually it's pronounced Thorinback. This is a Marvel comic book term bad guys use after getting pummeled by the god of thunder gone to Thorin back so just very quickly you've got rough writing flowers so I'm just saying raw writing raw doggy raw doggy raw doggy flowers raw doggy flowers thank you I was trying to make it more efficient and I used so many more words to say it.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Colorful Amazonian bird. Valentine breaking up with you, tripping and plunging thorns into their hand, or into your back. Breed of hunting dog. The 17th century term for an unmarried woman or a Marvel comic phrase. Do you want to first crack here, Saran?
Starting point is 00:05:05 Yeah, I think maybe by process of elimination and how ridiculous they all are, I'm going to go with the 17th century unmarried woman. Okay, locking that in for Saran. What do you think, Penny? I agree. Consensus. Consensus. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Yeah, you as well, huh? Yeah. One, two, three, I all agree. All right, well here's who wrote the answers. Flowers having sex without condoms, that was her. Yeah. That's very good. It's really good.
Starting point is 00:05:36 That's the only thing I can think about. That's all I'm gonna think about now. Yeah. A colorful Amazonian bird, that was Kayla, aka the house. The valentine getting thorns in their back, that was Sarenne. Breed of hunting dog, that was Penny. Did you put that in the ridiculous category? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:55 It seems far too benign for a hunting dog. Marvel comic book terminology, that was The House. I mean the correct answer was 17th century word to refer to an unmarried woman over the age of 25 Wow one back good tonight into my new joke Wow That's good. I always thought that spinster sucked. Yeah, thornback is so much Yeah, don't know we're gonna sound kind of badass the thorn back. Yeah, I'm a thornback is so much worse. That's tougher. Yeah! Don't know what I'm gonna say. What is that? It sounds kinda badass though. Why? Thornback?
Starting point is 00:06:26 Yeah. Thornback? You wouldn't mess with a thornback. Yeah, fuck with a thornback. But I don't think they meant it as a badass kind of thing. No. Why would it be bad to have a thornback if you're unmarried? Like, what does that mean? Well, it feels...
Starting point is 00:06:40 Is it something to do with like, that's the reason that you've made it this far? People trying to hug you and they hugging you from behind. Yeah You reach around you reach around you do reach around hug in a hug. Yeah, your arms are always Spike your hands. Yeah, you're like you're trying to embrace somebody like I love you. Ah Yeah Yes, it's actually, I think it was, I'll explain it while you're writing the next one, but it's, let me see quickly.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Well, what's it do though? Like to make people think they're bad. It's named after some sort of sea creature. That is a- Sea creature, oh my. Famously sexy. Well, I think it's, I think they're saying it's unsexy. You're so old and unmarried, no one wants to touch you, you're a thornback. No, I think it's um I think they're saying it's unsafe you're so old and unmarried
Starting point is 00:07:26 No one wants to touch you your thorn back. No they got it all wrong Twenty-five isn't it well. I think we know that now, but in the 17th century the science wasn't in yet No, that's right, but now they know the older the older the hotter Shout out to all the grandmas Now you could you could write an Oscar-winning movie about a thorn back Sea based beast. Shout out to all the grandmas. Yay. Now you could write an Oscar winning movie about a Thornback. Thornback. What was that?
Starting point is 00:07:51 Who would you get to play the 25 year old Thornback? Thornback on road. 25? I don't know if I know a 25 year old. No, no. Sydney's sweet. Maybe she's going to be older than... Oh yeah, it's at least 25. Zendaya?
Starting point is 00:08:04 Zendaya. I'd get Zendaya in. She's gonna be older than... Oh yeah, it's at least 25. Zendaya? At least 25. Zendaya, I'd get Zendaya in. She's hot. She's a hot 25 year old. No. Okay, that's a bit weird, but okay. Yeah, she is. All right, so that means after one round, all contestants, apart from the house, are on one point.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Here's question number two. This one comes from Jason Harrison from Leeds in the UK. And the question is, speaking of sea creatures, which of these is a real species of fish? So you've just got to name, make up a species of fish. Okay. I don't have to describe, just give us the name. Oh.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Just a made up fish. Made up fish? Yeah, just come up with a weird name for the name. Oh. Just a made up fish. Made up fish? Yeah, just come up with a weird name for a fish. Okay. And while you're writing your answers, here's some more info on Thornbacks. I was reading on the University of Maryland, Baltimore County's website,
Starting point is 00:08:58 Amy Froedai, or Freud, wrote in 2019, In a recent interview with Vogue, actress Emma Watson opened up about being a single 30-year-old woman. Instead of calling herself single, however, she used the word self-partnered. I've studied and written about the history of single women, and this is the first time I am aware of self-partnered being used. We'll see if it catches on, but if it does, it will join an ever-growing list of words used to describe single women of a certain age. Women who were once called spinsters eventually started being called old maids, but in 17th
Starting point is 00:09:33 century New England, there were also words like thornback, a seascape covered with thorny spines which was used to describe single women older than 25. Okay, so are they saying their faces look like fish or something like that? I'm not sure. A skate. Yeah, a seaskate. Is that a, that's a type of fish?
Starting point is 00:09:54 Yeah, I guess so, I'd never heard of it, but it's, yeah, it does feel like a funny term. Spinster, is that because they- Yarn? Something like that yarn? Yeah I think so. Well they're great storytellers. All right answering for question two which of these are real species of fish? Northern hog sucker, West Yorkshire bubblefish, trout mouth flat bass, or French blowjob. Can you repeat it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Just looking up, thornback is a ray. So yeah, it is a thornback is a ray. So yeah, it is a ray All right, here's your options again northern hog sucker West Yorkshire bubblefish thornback Squirty bottom ulcer troutmouth flat bass or French blowjob Maybe it's your turn first penny. What what do you think I fully tuned out when you just said those things I'm so sorry there's so many details I like the Yorkshire one the Yorkshire Yorkshire bubblefish yeah I'll go for that one because it's the only one you remember yes I can give you the others if you like no no no it's illegal what
Starting point is 00:11:19 do you think her and the one was the blast what is a blaster or blast my squirty bottom ulcer no no no I think he's right after the Yorkshire one or Thornback no after that that's Squirty Bottom Ulcer then Trout Mouth Flat Bass yes that one that mouth sounds legit to me yeah legis certain maybe just for a point of difference the ulcer. Squirty bottom ulcer. Squirty bottom ulcer. Feels like that kind of answer someone would be like hey this is interesting. Yeah that's right that's part of the game is figuring out what's an answer where someone has gone I should send that in to Matt's stupid show. Yeah, yeah. All right, here's the right answers. A French blowjob? That was her.
Starting point is 00:12:05 That's so good. I loved it. It's so good. And he laughed so much. Of course. Fuck, I wish it was real. Yeah, I know. I would love to see a French blowjob in the wild.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Thornback, that was Saran. A French blowjob is saltwater fish? It's fishy, it's fishy. It's cheese based. Troutmouth flat bass. Who went for that? That was the house, I'm afraid. As was the West Yorkshire bubblefish, which James, the question writer, wrote that one. Saran went for the Squirty Bottom Ulster, that was Penny.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Oh, maybe the correct answer was actually the Northern Hogsucker. Wow, you said that first. Yeah. Wow. The order, you never know when the real one's gonna come out. It's crazy when you say it first and it's the answer. That's wild. You really got me with that. I thought for sure that's not one.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Oh wow. It is. They're not great looking things. Yeah, it's cute, but's not one. Oh wow. It is. They're not great looking things. Yeah, it's cute, but it's weird. Yeah, yeah. It's a tiny one. It could be called a French blowjob. So it's a hog sucker?
Starting point is 00:13:15 Hog sucker, yeah. It's a hog sucker. Somehow a French blowjob is a white class, you're saying, right? I mean, it's French. Yeah. Oui oui. Ooh la la. Hog sucker though, Yeah. Oui oui. Oh la la.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Hog sucker though, yeah. That's west clattering. Oh, it's native to United States and Canada. It's not French. Yeah, with a name like hog sucker. Oh yeah, that's true, right? It sounds like you put it in a sandwich. So that means-
Starting point is 00:13:39 Hoagie, hoagie hog sucker. It looks so gross. One point for Penny and two points for the house, meaning after two rounds, we've got her on one, Saran on one, and Penny in the house out in front on two points a piece. The next one was written by Louis Falstone from Leeds. That's still in a row from Leeds.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Leeds, Leeds, Leeds in the UK. And the question is, in the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who is Jeneca? In the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who is Jeneca? There's a character called Jeneca apparently in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles universe. Jeneca. So I guess you just got to give us a sentence or something, description of who the character is or whatever. Is it like a personality or a job description?
Starting point is 00:14:27 You can take it, I guess take it out of your life. Okay, okay, just whatever I like. Yeah, I mean, I don't want to give you any notes because so far you've come up with condomless boning flowers and French blowjob fish. More about my camp boys. While you're writing your answers, I'll let the audience know a bit more about Northern Hogsuckers.
Starting point is 00:14:51 According to the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign campus, I guess, the Northern Hogsucker is a seldom seen bottom dwelling species that prefers clear, fast flowing water in small streams and rivers. Aside from a few red-horse species with flame-red fins, most sucker species are plainly coloured. However, the northern hogsucker has dark-coloured barring across its back that acts as highly effective camouflage as it rests on shallow gravel beds or on rocks.
Starting point is 00:15:22 One story in the scientific literature comments that the northern hogsucker loves to bask in the sun, lying atop some large rock or in a shallow riffle. What a laugh. Colloquial names for this small species include hog-nosed sucker, big-headed sucker, hammerhead sucker, crawler bottom, hog mullet, hog molly, and the writer's personal favorite, pugamoo. I mean... The same thing happened I just tuned right out. No you weren't, you were meant to in this case. I wasn't... Hogamoo is great though. Yeah. Hogamoo, that's a fish is it? No they're all alternative names for the hog sucker. H Hogamoo. Pugamoo. Pugamoo. Pugamoo.
Starting point is 00:16:07 How do people come up with this stuff? What about crawler bottom? And that's it. Crawler bottom. Yeah, that feels like that's what it's doing, but that can't be its name. Crawler bottom. Crawler bottom.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Here, have a look at that crawler bottom. Here, we're gonna go get it. Gotta go get it. Gotta go get it. Get some crawler bottom. Get some crawler bottom. Don't come back, you don't got those crawler bottom. They're gonna go get it. Yeah, go get it. Go get some crawler bottom. They're gonna get some crawler bottom. Don't come back, you don't got those crawler bottom. You feel it, boy, in that neck,
Starting point is 00:16:28 get some crawler bottom. Hey, we got crawler bottom, we got a huck molly. Hey, cook up those, bottom, what do you call them? Pugamoo. Pugamoo. Yeah, cook up that Pugamoo. We've been so cookin' that Pugamoo.
Starting point is 00:16:42 That Pugamoo beans. So cookin' that Pugamoo. Myugamoo beans. My favourite. My favourite. My beans on the side. Mama been cooking up there. Grits. And grits on the side of that Pugamoo. I don't even know who I'm offending now. Alright, answering for question number three.
Starting point is 00:16:58 In the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who is Jenica? Jenica. Splinter's robotic wife made after the turtles moved out. A portmanteau of Jennifer and Mecca. Wow. That is such an elaborate answer. Yeah, who's fan of that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Yeah. What does Mecca mean? I think it's a makeup shop, isn't it? Mecca? Like the makeup? Makeup. Make up as Medica? Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Oh wow. Well, it's named after the city. I'm guessing it means the robot thing, up? Make up? Oh yeah. Oh wow. Well it's named after, you know, the city. I'm guessing it means the robot thing there. It's that sacred city. Oh. Oh, maybe I'm saying it wrong. It's M-E-C-H-A.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Oh yeah, no idea. Whereas I think the city's M-E-C-A. Yeah. And the make up. All right, well that one's, that one poses as many questions as the standard. Option two, a former foot clan soldier who had a blood
Starting point is 00:17:45 transfusion from Leonardo and mutated into a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle themselves, then joined the turtles and fell in love with Casey Jones. I don't know, what is that? Was there a fifth turtle at any point? Well at this point. Okay. If that's the correct answer. I don't know any of these names. This is so deep. Casey Jones, I know Foot Clan because I grew up with it a little bit. The Foot Clan were like the the Shredder's army. Shredder was the main, he was sort of like the Darth Vader guy and then the Foot Clan were like why am I putting in the Star Wars terms? Does that help you at all? Not at all. And then... The Foot Clan were sort of like the... Just like the plebs of the banders. Yeah, they were sort of like
Starting point is 00:18:28 the stormtroopers, I guess. That's what I was going to say. I'm like, this wouldn't have helped me two years ago. So I don't... Anyway. And then Casey Jones is like a human sidekick of them whose weapon of choice is a hockey stick. And he wears like a hockey mask. Okay. There is no direct equivalent from the Star Wars. I think that's Hans Solberg. Okay. Okay. Then you've got the pizza delivery guy.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Oh, what's a gender neutral name? Sounds like it's a she. Yeah, it sounds she-esque. Yeah. Well, guy, maybe in this case is gender neutral as well. Janika.

Yeah, I don't. I'm not interested in Japanese. Yeah, I didn't grow up with Japanese anime a lot. But you did grow up in a tiny... what was the population? In the mountains of China? Is that right? Half a million. Half a million, tiny. Tiny, it's a tiny one.
Starting point is 00:24:05 It's so small. That is so funny. I read, I was reading a bio of yours before and it said a small city in the mountains. Half a million people. In my head I'm picturing like, you know. Yeah, it used to be smaller. Now it's bigger, half a million.
Starting point is 00:24:18 It used to be like 300,000, I think, yeah. So it's like Hobart or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or maybe even the whole population of Tasmania. Yeah,000. I think, yeah. So it's like Hobart or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or maybe even the whole population of Tasmania. Yeah, probably. Tiny little place. Tiny little place. All right, after three rounds,

Starting point is 00:24:46 All right, up to question number four. This one comes from Kira from Melbourne. And the question is, what is song number three, track three on the album, Dear Love, a beautiful discord by The Devil Wears Prada, which was released in 2006. And have you metalcore fans? No.
Starting point is 00:25:03 There's a band called The Devil Wears wears Prada an American metalcore band from Ohio You just got to come up with a track name, you know somewhat interesting I guess interesting enough for someone who have sent it in Come up with the name of a song that was released in 2006 by the band the devil wears Prada While you're writing your answers. Here's a little more info about Jenica. According to Lewis, Jenica isn't the first female turtle. There was a character named Venus de Milo who was a turtle mutated at the same time as the others and Splinter just forgot her and left her in the sewers. Wow. Whoa. It's pretty dark. That is dark. That's the
Starting point is 00:25:43 dark gritty comic books. Alright while you're still writing your answers, let's go for a quick break. Alright we're back at the answer in. So here's question four. What is track three on the album Dear Love, a beautiful discord by the Devil Wears Prada, released in 2006. Here are your options Anne Hathaway you take my heart away
Starting point is 00:26:07 That's cool Eye sockets full of piss Mmm River flow to the east and sun sets in the west Dogs can grow beards all over Smash crash thrash bash Or the last guy to cross me is known as the golf course now because I put 18 holes in him. Oh that's so funny. I think we're back to you Saran. Okay so you said that this was they were
Starting point is 00:26:35 like a death metal band. A metalcore band I believe. Okay because that was a... I don't know the difference between anything. Neither do I but that was a big variation in those years. Well, I think metalcore's like a hybrid of heavy metal and hardcore, maybe? To me, I can't tell. I'm not a connoisseur. No, neither. Me neither. I'm a casual admirer. And how does death metal differ from heavy metal?
Starting point is 00:27:00 Well, heavy metal's broader, but death metal is just a more narrow version of it. I think it's lyrics are important maybe in Death Metal, but also the sound. And what's Screamo? Screamo? That's like, I think that's kind of what it sounds like. It's like emo music where they scream. This is going to be pissing off like metal nerds because I'm not nailing this, but. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Well my answer is all. Black metal, they're all very, got specific. Some of them are specific about the drum sounds. Some of them are specific about the lyrical content. It can depend on different things. Okay, cool. Very neat. But metalcore, yeah, I think it's just, I think it's like a hybrid of heavy metal.
Starting point is 00:27:43 I'm only guessing that based on the name really. But anyway, Saron, what do you reckon? The last guy to cross me, they call him the golf course because I put 18 holes in it. Okay, look at that in for Saron. I love that answer. I just think that's amazing. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Yeah, what do you think? Well, I'm interested to know what her set thinks. Yeah, which is the last one. I'll choose the last one. You want to choose the last one as well? The golf course? Yeah, the golf course and put like a hose in the man, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:14 I love that one. Yeah, I love that one too. Yeah, I'll just go. Yeah. Sounds like very hardcore. All right, well this is who wrote the answers. Anne Hathaway, you take my heart away. That was Kira, okay, the house. Eye you take my heart away. That was Kira.
Starting point is 00:28:25 Okay, the house. Eye sockets full of piss. That was Soren. I was definitely thinking death metal. River flow to the east and sunsets in the west. That was her. Yeah, that was the one that I was like, is this death metal? And also, I like, a bit of a change up from her as well because I know, I'm trying to mess with you guys Yeah
Starting point is 00:28:48 It was very poetic Yeah I know, it's very poetic Well I mean they've all been poetic French blowjob, that's the best poem I've ever read I know, it's very poetic Smash Crash Thresh Bash, another great poem, that was by Penny Oh, that's nice That was fun
Starting point is 00:29:04 The last guy that crossed me, it's known as the golf course now because I put 18 holes in him, that was the house I'm afraid to. No! The correct answer was dogs can grow beards all over. And the lyrics, I mean, I don't know this band, don't know them beyond their name,
Starting point is 00:29:21 but that sounds like a fun name, but the lyrics are very serious. I'll read the lyrics while you're writing the next answer, but they have nothing to do with dogs being furry. The first word is, welcome to the war, a martyr's challenge. I like it. It feels like it's a big discrepancy between tone of the title and the song. Anyway, which is probably, I imagine, on purpose.
Starting point is 00:29:44 So that means, unfortunately, if you three, three points to the house, which is probably I imagine on purpose. So that means unfortunately for you three, three points to the house which means the house is leapt into the lead with a couple three rounds to go. Question five comes from Steven Carter who's a Kiwi living in Sydney and the question is what is the nickname of South African-born New Zealand cricketer Grant Elliott who played for the Black Cups between 2008 and 2016. I don't think I knew this guy. Saran's a bit of a cricket fan. Either of you into cricket? No. No, I dropped out after like Shane Warne era. Yeah, yeah. Like I've got no idea. Probably, which would have been around this time. But he only played a couple of tests for New Zealand, so he wasn't like a household name
Starting point is 00:30:29 or anything. What's his name again? His name is Grant Elliott. While you're writing your answers, here's the lyrics to the song, Dogs Can Grow Beards All Over. Welcome to the war, a martyr's challenge, chainsaw brutality, tornado strength. King of the diamond, king of the grave, lawlessness stains black on whitewashed tombs. We're too strong to compromise. Don't be ashamed of your faith.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Dear Lord, deliver me from hypocrisy. And sir, cease the scarlet desire. Not sure if that's the word. The answers are in for question number five. deliver me from hypocrisy and cease the scarlet desire. I'm not sure if that's the word. The answers are in for question number five. Yeah. What is the nickname of South African born New Zealand cricketer Grant Elliott? Here are your options. Big Maccas. Cricket McCricket Face.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Durban. Mystery Elliott. Harry Javelin or Nelson Grant Della Born New Zealand cricketer Grant Elliott, what was his nickname? Big Mac is cricket mc-cricket face Durban mystery Elliott Harry Javelin Nelson Grant Della. Okay. I think we're up to you, Panny, first crack. I like the one towards the end, Nelson Grant Della.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Okay. I think for Panny, what do you think? Oh, because he's from South Africa. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going for, because it's a nickname, he has to be quick, right? I'm going for Durban. Yeah. It was quick, especially how you said it, man.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Why did you look so Durban? I was I don't know, because it was short. I was trying to I was trying to give it the South African accent. But it's hard to do that with such a short word. What do you think, Theron? Remind me what the first one was. Big Maccas. Oh, yeah. And remind me what the one after Durbin was. Mystery Elliot.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Okay. There's one about being tall. Harry Javelin? Oh yeah, I'm going to say Harry Javelin. That's a good one. Is that what you meant? I'm like, that's the closest to being tall. Does that mean he's tall?
Starting point is 00:32:43 On a Big Maccas I guess it'd be the tall? Yeah, the two. It felt like... Harry Javelin. Harry Javelin, all right. That's good. Here's who wrote the answers. Big Maccas, that was her.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Yay! I was messing around. Not even Kiwi Maccas. Oh, you were just thinking like the burger. I just wanted to get it out in my head. Cricket McRicket Face, that was Stephen. Okay, The House. Mystery Elliot, that was also The House.
Starting point is 00:33:11 That was a bit of fun there. Mystery, like Missy Elliot. But his name's Elliot. It's actually really clever though. Anyway. It's hard. It's so... It's such a weird hybrid, Missy Elliot and Cricket.
Starting point is 00:33:24 Yeah, yeah. I think we are about to find out... There's an unnatural bedfellows. There's an even more weird hybrid, Missy Elliot and cricket. Yeah, yeah. I think we are about to find out. These are not natural bedfellows. There's an even more weird hybrid coming up. Durban, in brackets, said in South African accent. Durban. Well, it was Penny. Durban. It wasn't Durban. I'm like, that's why I was panicking.
Starting point is 00:33:37 We got a point. And you knew why I was panicking because it was your instruction. Hey, why are you? Oh, you instructed the accent. I was just instructing the accent and then said, oh, why were you... Oh, you instructed the accent. Instructed the accent and then said, oh, why were you taking the time with that? Durban?
Starting point is 00:33:50 Durban? Yeah, what was it? Did I do it in... It was more Kiwi then. In my head I'm saying, Grudge is a place to park your car. Which is like the talk man doing Tony Gregg. Not the only South African I can think of. Grudge is just a place to park your
Starting point is 00:34:05 car. Park your car. Park your car. Durban. Damn it. Is that closer? How do you say Durban? I've got no idea. I thought you named it just before. Durban. Durban. Durban. Pretoria. Oh yeah. That's good. Jo Berg. Jo Berg. Jo Berg. I'm over from Jo Berg. So what's your re-answer? Well Penny went for Nelson Grant-Bella and that was Sarenne. Oh yeah, that can be true, I know that. Meaning the correct answer is Hairy Javelin. Yes! It's gotta be one of the worst nicknames or best nicknames, I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:34:36 The best. Why Hairy Javelin? He's so good. Is he hairy? Is he a hairy man? He's hairy and tall and skinny, apparently. Yeah, that's what it felt like a cricket club kind of vibe. Yeah, yeah. So good. Teammates dubbed him that.
Starting point is 00:34:51 So that means two points for Seren that round. One point for Penny. I almost did go with Big Mac instead. Oh my God. You are getting left behind. I know. As a Chinese, I feel like I failed at my test. Don't worry, triple points in the final round,
Starting point is 00:35:05 still to come, so. Okay, okay, okay, okay. You're still- I have to have one chance to win. But yeah, you are at the moment in fourth spot on one point. Saren on three, Penny on five, but still just out in front on six points is the house. What a loser. Second last question comes from Dane Helmers
Starting point is 00:35:22 from Dingley Village, and the question is what is poor When you hear the word that was meant to be you'll be like, oh that was a mile off when is What is Pope for Moses best known for what is put What is Pope for Moses best known for he's a pope from the from the well-olden days. Oh he's an actual pope. An actual pope from years and like centuries and centuries ago. Which one specifically? Do you want me to find out? Oh no. He was born in 816. Oh wow this is a long long time ago. Jesus was like fresh in the grave at this point. Yeah, well you know 816 years fresh I guess. Fresh. No, hang on. Oh no, that's half way.
Starting point is 00:36:10 He died at 33. It's pretty much half way. Yeah. Did you say well? 800, yeah. Did you say Jesus? God, that would be so disrespectful. I have extreme Catholics in my family. Jesus is rolling in his grave right now. So yeah, so a Pope called Formosus from way back in the 1800s, what's he best known for? And while you're writing those answers, I'll let the listeners know a little bit about the hairy javelin. According to alternative commentary collective founder Paul Ford, the collective have been credited with semi-final hero Grant Elliott's hairy javelin moniker but it actually came from within the team. For those who haven't heard the reason behind the name yet, Elliot is both very hairy
Starting point is 00:36:53 and very skinny. Wiki lists his other nicknames as magic and shunt which is yeah I don't know shunt there's something about shunt I don't know, Shunt? There's something about Shunt, I don't mind. He only played five test matches but was handy in one-day internationals at the 2015 World Cup in the semi-final against South Africa. His birth nation. He scored an unbeaten 84 and was man of the match, putting New Zealand into their first ever Cricket World Cup final. He also top-sc scored for New Zealand with 83 in the losing final against Australia. Alright the answers are in for question number 6. What is Pope Formosus best known for?
Starting point is 00:37:35 He was a 9th century BCE pimp, owning and running the largest Roman brothel of its time. He was dug up after 9 months after his death so he could be put on trial. He fathered illegitimate children with at least 15 nuns. Along with his mother Mim, he created the cocktail Mimosa. He was named Pope by accident when someone in the papal conclave farted in quite a big way and this was mistaken for white smoke. Oh my god. Or he could burp the alphabet on demand. So stupid. I wonder what the alphabet was back then. It would have been A, B, C, D, what would it have been?
Starting point is 00:38:23 Yeah it wouldn't have had the... Latin? It would have been in Latin. Latin? Latin? The Latin alphabet. No wonder, yeah. That's impressive. That's our popularity vote in a lot of ways, getting to the Pope. It's our popularity vote, but...
Starting point is 00:38:33 Popularity. I guess it's all that blood of Christ he probably sipping down. Yeah, it's amazing that one answer was burping and one was farting. Hahaha. Alright, her. Do you want to first crack here? I think it's a newspaper that accidentally named her. Is that the one? A name put by accident? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:57 Name it by accident. Locking that in for her. What do you think, Saran? I would love it to be the burping the alphabet. Yep. But I don't think it's that. I reckon it could be the
Starting point is 00:39:13 he had illegitimate children with a number of nuns. But that's Mamosa, right? No, the Mamosa was the next one. Oh, can I choose that one too? I thought it was the illegitimate children one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was the next one. Oh, can I choose that one too? I thought it was the illegitimate children one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought they're together. Oh no. I thought they have children and they named the children mimosas. All right, so her and Saran going for
Starting point is 00:39:37 fathering illegitimate children with nuns. What do you think, Penny? I think it's the one, I think it was a pimp. Pimp. B.C.E. The ninth century B.C.E. pimp. Yeah. All right, locking that in for Penny. Here's who wrote the answers. He could burp the alphabet on demand, that was her. Yay!
Starting point is 00:39:54 I love that. Your answer's real. It was funny. He was named Pope by accident when someone in the papal conclave farted in quite a big way. That was serene. That's so... Well, it had to be to go up the chimneyed in quite a big way. That was Saran. Well it had to be to go up the chimney. In quite a big way.
Starting point is 00:40:09 It had to be a big fart. That reeks of Wikipedia entry. You farted in quite a big way. Along with his mother Mim created the cocktail mimosa. That was the house. That's very good. The house also did the big time pimp. Dane, the question writer in particular, got you there. Fathering illegitimate children with nuns though, that was Penny. Meaning the correct answer was dug up nine months
Starting point is 00:40:36 after his death so it could be put on trial. For what? For what crime? The pope who came in after him just didn't like him. Really? And he said, you know, like you weren't, this guy wasn't legitimate How do you answer to this?
Starting point is 00:40:48 Were decaying corpse and they found they found him guilty today. Mm-hmm Yeah guilty of guilty of just being a shit Pope or I think it was I'll explain it in more detail while you're on in the next answers, but it was I'll explain it in more detail while you're on in the next answer, but it was Accused of violating canon law and of perjury among other charges and it was yeah found guilty So that brings us up to the last question. This one's worth triple points still anyone's game here But penny probably more so your game than anyone else's is I think you've now jumped into the lead There were actually no equal leaders with the house
Starting point is 00:41:27 Penny scored two points and the house scored one point there. So hers on one, Saren's on three, but Penny and the house both on seven points, but triple points this round. Anyone's game. And that is iron. Iron space sky. Well your answers are being written. Here's some more info about Pope Formosus. So he was born in Rome they think in 816 lived till 896. It's a pretty long life. He was owned the Pope from 891 to 896, and his posthumous trial is one of the most bizarre incidents in papal history. Apparently, at a Roman synod conducted by Pope Stephen,
Starting point is 00:42:17 the sixth or seventh, depending on who's counting, political enemies of Formosus had his nine-month-old corpse exhumed, propped up on a throne and subjected to a mock trial, during which a deacon answered for the corpse. He was accused of violating canon law and of perjury among other charges. After he was found guilty, his election as pope was declared invalid, his axe were quashed, and his fingers of consecration were cut off. His corpse was then cast into
Starting point is 00:42:46 a grave but later thrown into the Tiber River. These axes divided Rome politically, provoking an insurrection that resulted in Stephen's imprisonment and his death by strangulation. During his brief 20-day tenure, Pope Theodore II reinstated the ordinations of Formosus and solemnly reburied his body in St. Peter's Basilica. Pope John the Ninth also condemned Stephen Synod, probably saying Synod wrong, and he burned his axe. So the guy who dug him up and put him on trial, he ended up getting killed basically for doing it and a lot of his work was undone. What a hectic time in potpourri.
Starting point is 00:43:25 This is so consistent with what I know of Catholics. It's a long, long and wild history of being dramatic. Would you believe that? I grew up Catholic. Very dramatic man. And refusing to take the plank out of your own eye before taking the speck out of someone else. Yeah Yeah, that's good That one of yours. No, there's biblical Do I say that was I was reading from Britannica then I don't know if I said that
Starting point is 00:43:57 Just in case anyone thought I was putting that in my own words. I Mean I do talk like that for sure The answer in for the final question, what is the synopsis of the movie Iron Sky from 2012? Linda Hamilton plays world-renowned wrestling heel Sky Vladimirovich, aka Iron Sky. She must wrestle not only with her insecurities about being a boo-worthy villain of the WWWF, Women's World Wrestling Federation, but also with keeping her burgeoning relationship with rival Frida Columbia within the bounds of K-WF, Women's World Wrestling Federation, but also with keeping her burgeoning relationship with rival Frida Columbia within the bounds of kayfabe.
Starting point is 00:44:31 That's option one, option two, a team of rebels try to save the people who are detained in a camp where they have to work, study, and live as instructed by the big brother. Option three, when grumpy mother Maggie Compton gets mad and throws a steaming iron out the window, little did she know she would unleash crazy weather. In the last moments of World War Two, a secret Nazi space program flees to the dark side of the moon. During 70 years of utter secrecy,
Starting point is 00:45:02 the Nazis constructed gigantic space fortress with a massive armada of flying saucers. When American astronaut James Washington puts down his lunar lander a bit too close to the secret Nazi base, the moon Fuhrer decides the glorious moment of retaking the earth has arrived sooner than expected. Then you've got Skye's in trouble. She has a very important presentation but also a crinkled shirt. There's nothing presentation goers hate more than a crinkled shirt. Can Skye find an iron in time or will she have to give her talk topless? Rated R18 plus contains nudity. Or finally they've put a metal roof on the world.
Starting point is 00:45:45 All I can see for miles is iron sky, is the famous quote that kicks off this mind-bending psychological thriller where no one inside the film or watching without knows what's up and what's down. Without spoiling too much, it turns out up is down and down is up and the iron sky was really just a cast iron floor Whoa, whoa?
Starting point is 00:46:07 That sounds mind-bending. So you've got the world women's World Wrestling Federation One you've got the big brother is watching over the rebels who are detained in a camp Grumpy mother throws an iron out the window changes the weather unleashes cut crazy weather you got moon hitler with coming to attack earth you got woman the topless woman who can't find an honor on a shirt or you got the They got the movie where it turns out everything's upside down
Starting point is 00:46:40 That sounds like a spoiler Yeah without spoiling too much. Yeah. Yeah, it sounds like you're spoiling too much. Like everything. You want to have a crack here, Saran? But also the other one sounds like a spoiler because it's like, will she find an iron or will she have to be topless? Contains nudity. Gives it away. I reckon it is the moon Hitler. Moon Hitler moon Hitler walking that in for Sarand. What do you think Penny? I think that it's the Not the wrestling one the one after that
Starting point is 00:47:16 Team of rebels big brother rebels. Yeah rebels big brother rebels big brother for Penny. What do you think her? I think it's the wrestling wrestling Rebel's big brother, with an M for Penny. What do you think her? I think it's the wrestling. Wrestling. All right. Locking that in for her. Here's who wrote the answers.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Da da da da. The one with the big spoiler, that was the house. Ah, ah. The one where the woman can't find an iron, or can she? That's Sarenne. The one with the grumpy mother who throws an iron out the window and unleashes crazy
Starting point is 00:47:45 weather that was Penny. Her went for the one about the Women's World Wrestling Federation that was Harry aka the house so a point for the house there. Penny went for a team of rebels with Big Brother that was her. That was a good one. And Saran got the correct answer. Moon Nazis. Moon Nazis. Yeah that's good. That one a good one. And Sarenne got the correct answer. Moon Nazis. Oh, Moon Nazis.
Starting point is 00:48:05 Yeah, that's good. That one's good. Should've thought about the Moon Nazis. So that means three points to her. Three to Sarenne. Oh, am I catching up? All right. Before I count up all the numbers,
Starting point is 00:48:22 just very quickly, critics gave this film 41%, audience 37% on Rotten Tomatoes. The famous David Stratton wrote, "'The performances are fine and the film, "'mainly shot in the studios on the Gold Coast, "'looks terrific most of the time. "'It's the script that needed more oomph.'" So yeah, people didn't love it.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Moon Narty's final score in fourth place on four points, it's He Huang. In third place on six points, it's Seren Jai Mana, meaning equal first place, both on seven points, it's Penny and the House. It's a tie. It's a tie. Congrats, well deserved.

Starting point is 00:51:28 It was for like when the neighbours come round to... What did you bicker about? Who did the laundry? No, I think before we went on we were like, oh let's keep this real tight. Oh yeah, no, I was... And then we both were sort of... I was sick last week and my head wasn't quite helping me out there. So our tight first few minutes went for ages.
Starting point is 00:51:52 Like 15 minutes. You were on stage at the same time? Yeah, we do like a little warm up together. And then I was... So you both decided we're going to keep this tight. In my head saying, oh, we should probably start this. Yeah. And me going, uh, actually, uh. we're gonna keep this tight. In my head saying oh we should probably start this. Yeah and make it on. Actually that makes me think. And then you pick it? Yeah maybe.

Those are kind of gross. So it looks kind of like a stingray or something. Yeah, flat stingray kind of. Well, I guess, I mean, yeah. Any culture that has a specifically just like terms set aside for women who are single over a certain age? Doesn't seem like they would have much respect.
Starting point is 00:52:49 For women of a certain age. Yeah. Cause what they want, they just want breeders, don't they? Yeah. That's what they want to. Over, you know, over the age of 25, can you even still have kids? Yeah. Well, I guess the 17th century. Yeah. Yeah, you probably you would be like there'd be grandmas at age back then probably yeah
Starting point is 00:53:15 Went home I grew up in a little town and one of the girls in my year in year nine had a baby and I Was in like a RFS was doing fire training and there was a a baby and I was in like a RFS, I was doing fire training and there was a guy there and I was like, oh that guy, he's got a face I recognize. And I kept sort of glancing and I was like, oh fuck, there's something really familiar about this guy's face. My mum introduced me to him at the, whatever morning tea or whatever she's like, um, Oh, this is your friend's son.
Starting point is 00:53:48 This is a man. He had facial hair. I was introducing myself to a man being like, I knew your mother and in primary school. It was so, This is her. Is his mom still alive? Hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:02 She's, she's like 36. And a great grandmother. Wow. How many kids does she have? Three. Okay, that's enough. Single now though, so she's a Thornback. A Thornback?

They should have a medal because they already have kids. Yeah, that's right. It's a retired, you know, retired Thornback.

This one comes from Lewis Foulstone. Foul, it says foul like soul. Foulstone I guess. Sorry. Foul like soul. I'm guessing it's hard with when people give you pronunciations like that They're assuming that I say that word like they want me to
Starting point is 00:55:11 And I really do but anyway soul fall it'll be fall fall. Okay. Thank you Mama been cooking up the grits and grits on Saturday I don't even know who I'm offending now. I think because it's not a good accent anywhere, every region of America would be like, Jesus, he's not quite nailing the state next door. You know, like one of the states. It could also be an old version, you know, like it could be Huckleberry Finn era because I reckon sometimes I listen to archive from the ABC and people speaking with those old Australian accents. Isn't that amazing? What do you mean? Isn't it? That blew my mind the first time I saw one of those videos because I always thought you get older
Starting point is 00:56:02 and you start speaking like that somehow but But no, that's just how old, like my grandparents' generation always spoke like that. Yeah. And the old person, like, accent is soon going to be, hey, how's it going? I'm like, all right, grandpa. But yeah, but then it was, oh, hey, yes.

I have a big old man's yawning and lots of air inside me Trying to get out Fascinating it's just fascinating to see how the mind of He Huang works. It's
Starting point is 00:57:49 been a real insight so far. It's a good insight. I'm a twisted little mind. Sick bastard. Twisted mind of He Huang. Like a French bulldog, you have French bulldogs. Oh yeah, it worked, cause it's like pufferfish blowfish, French bulldog, French blowjob. But just somehow it, all that together made it sound like it could be real. It could be really real. If people don't install blowjobs like that. Give me a blowjob like one of those French girls.
Starting point is 00:58:25 Is that a saying? I don't think so. Paint me like this. French people are connected with lots of sexual activities. Like French kiss, French cards, postcards. What are French postcards? It means porn. Like porn books. Porn of a pun up on a pornographic books. I think I say excuse my French or someone after swearing
Starting point is 00:58:52 Yeah, I say that in my joke. It's like it's shorthand for For just being blue. Yes, oh yeah Excuse me. I just give you a felicia. What is that? Is that an English word? Felicia's gotta come from French, right? All right, while you're still writing your answers, let's go for a quick break. Are we having actually a break? No, or you know, we can if you want. No, just kidding.
Starting point is 00:59:20 This has been a very fun episode, guys. I think you're all doing a great job. Thank you so much. Thank you. I'm losing. I don't like it. Yeah, it's not all about winning. Fuck. Sorry. Do you mind? This is just like I've got to organize an interview tomorrow. No worries. Just fuck with it.
Starting point is 00:59:42 You know actually I never win in my life. You've never won anything. Best Newcomer? No. Yeah you've won. I mean I was reading your bio before. That's oh yeah. You're multi award winning.
Starting point is 00:59:53 That's interesting. Multi award nominated. Yeah maybe. That's comedy. Okay then that's comedy. But that doesn't count. Before that. I didn't even win lottery at all.
Starting point is 01:00:03 No I mean that's pretty normal I think I think it's famously a one in multi-million chance and also like I'm a nervous exam like test taker so like whenever taking exams and tests I just get extremely anxious oh yeah yeah so I'm like the opposite of good Chinese student I quite liked exams Really because it was just the set thing you had a certain amount of time everyone had the same or it was homework I found a lot harder. Oh, maybe I was more the discipline and stuff. I'm autistic. Do you think so? Serena it's happening again
Starting point is 01:00:41 People keep diagnosing me this week for some reason. Um No, I'm not I am a little bit. I think people keep diagnosing me this week for some reason um no I'm not I am a little bit I think people say that to me yeah I mean I have no idea I need to see a therapist yeah I think it's I think that's probably if you want someone to diagnose you I'd say a professional is who you should go to see yeah yeah but I don't I think so. Okay autism You don't have to have a label on yourself. Oh, there's nothing wrong with anything. I think being aware of functioning Yeah, of course being aware of of anything means that you can Yeah, you're prepared. You just like I always yeah when I first realized that hangovers led to feeling a bit down
Starting point is 01:01:24 Yeah When I first realized that hangovers led to feeling a bit down, that made me feel like the second day hangover. Like I'm so depressed and I don't know why. And now knowing it, you're like, well, I understand why now. It's my own fault. Right. I don't feel depressed though. Don't you?
Starting point is 01:01:40 You don't get that. I just don't like, I think hangover is more how you feel physically. Yes. I think that's what I always thought as well. And then I just don't like I think hangover is more how you feel physically. Yes I think that's what I always thought as well And then I just started noticing but anyway, it's helped me cut down on drinking because I've yeah realize that it's not worth helpful, not drink. I'm like drinking I'm always like oh my god. Sorry. I'm usually willing to I have five shows to do, Sharon. Just kidding. Take this outside, man. Alright?
Starting point is 01:02:08 There's a lady here. You know what killed me was that gin. I haven't recovered since... Oh my god. I bought a bottle of Japanese gin. The Asian Rose Battle. Right. I was gonna say, where was... We all finished. It's great. I loved it. Where was mine from? Sorry, they finished it.
Starting point is 01:02:28 Australasia? That was the night we cancelled the show. Yeah, I was sick. It was a good show. Yeah, it was so fun. I bet, yeah. It was really dismissed by the festival though. No promotion whatsoever. It was so fun.
Starting point is 01:02:41 Yeah, well, that's interesting because it's obviously... They don't want to be too out loud that we're taking over. promotion whatsoever. Yeah, well that's interesting because it's obviously... They don't want to be too out loud that we're taking over. But now they saw how successful it was. Is it? Do you reckon they don't even have lots of people turned up? But what? I mean the only reason they'd have it on there is because they believe in it to some degree surely. that's true like they could easily just not have it but I think yeah the roast thing's never really caught on in Australia
Starting point is 01:03:12 yeah um because it's a very American thing to do yeah it is it's an interesting thing but so taking spotlight and just like making each other feel shit about yourself and then that's a very American thing to do. Yeah because we're tall people but it's almost funnier to them. Yeah. To big people up. Right. Like Americans love that and then they think that's the but that's the way they can enhance their friendship right like I think all the roasts without humor are just like Chinese. To me it feels like it's somehow it's like more natural for it like that's just the average Australian Day is like right. Yeah, so maybe that's why it's it doesn't work on stage as much. I don't know Yeah, maybe yeah
Starting point is 01:03:57 American thing is you like overly you're very confident and flattering about yourself and others so it's funny to yeah subvert that on stage I guess whereas that's what I meant we should be complimenting each other yeah I was just over explaining what you said because I didn't hear it but I agree then that is funny you should use that still get that and every family thing I go to you get that what you can you thing I go to, you get that? You'll probably use that. Someone will say some of the most mundane thing.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Oh, you can use that on stage. Yeah, you can probably use that on stage. Oh, we better be careful, we'll probably use that on stage. Put that in one of your little skits. No, I promise I won't. My neighbour, his name is Rouchie. He's a farmer. That's a great name.
Starting point is 01:04:44 And he... Wait why do you live that man you live next door farm oh well I grew up on a farm he's like my neighbor who grew up with my dad kind of thing yeah and they're both farmers and they live on farms next door to each other and he goes and he goes, what's a sex shop? And Hungry Jax got in common. Oh, man. Something about H.J.'s, head jobs? Hand jobs. I think they're full of fake meat.
Starting point is 01:05:17 Oh, that's so funny. It was topical because, you know, Hungry Jax had just got a vegan burger. Okay, yeah. He was like, you can use that. Why don't you give that to your mate, Huzy? That's what he said vegan burger. Okay, yeah. He was like, you can use that. Why don't you give that to your mate, Hughzy? That's what he said.
Starting point is 01:05:27 Why don't you give that to your mate, Hughzy? That is good. Did you give... Yeah, I think I saw Hughzy use that in the gala, didn't you? Fake meat. I'm like, that's the last thing I would have thought about Hungry Jax being full of. You can use that. That's so funny. Love it. You've gotten straight to whoppers. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:48 Sure. Whoppers. That's the misdirection that makes it work. Maybe I said it wrong. But also, you know, I think that... You're giving him too much credit. No, it could have been... Maybe the line was like the the big what was a full of fake meat Oh Maybe that's but I also think that's closer to a joke than anything anyone's ever said that about to me You know, I'll be like, I don't even understand How do you how much context so I have to give an audience before your quip there makes any sense at all Like I need to know so much backstory about your relationship with your cousin or something. Neither of those people are
Starting point is 01:06:29 known by the audience. How much work do I have to do and the pay-off isn't really there? The audience needs to have lived both of our lives. To find it mildly amusing. But if you're cousin, but you see if you're from Tassie they will get it. Oh yeah that's true. That's true. That's short hand isn't it? Yeah it's very quick. They're very quick down there. They're very savvy. Is that what you mean? How many listeners do you have in Tasmania? We got a few. Oh yeah. Or Alberta. Alberta Canada. Probably similar amount to Tasmania. Now, if you say like, I'm me and my cousin from Alberta, Canada, and they were like, oh, I got it.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Oh, I got it. Yeah. Okay. Is there a province in China that's the equivalent? I don't know. Since Chairman Mao comes, he banned. Yeah. Among many things he Chairman Mao comes, he banned. Among many things he banned, that thing he banned as well. Okay.
Starting point is 01:07:30 He was like, I can't. He banned cousins. Yeah, he banned cousins. Jeez. Shelbyville in America, I think. He doesn't... Yeah, he doesn't want everyone else to have fun. Was he the...
Starting point is 01:07:41 Yeah. But he does still have fun with his cousins? I don't know. One... Isn't that always the way? Yeah, it's always the way. He has so many concubines, mistress, you know. And he's telling everyone else to be loyal to your family. Right. It's very like that. Well, is that... I mean, are we talking about the same thing as the cousins thing?
Starting point is 01:08:01 There's some... Is that not being loyal to your family? Oh yeah, yeah. That's against... actually that's against Chinese tradition. They normally keep it in the family. They wanted to keep it in the family. That's how you keep your blood pure. Like the royal family. Yes, yes. Like a royal family. Royal family stuff. And as time's gone on we've realised that the pure bloodline is probably not the ideal way to go about it. I know, I know. I can tell from all the French paintings.
Starting point is 01:08:34 The jawless. Yeah, what are they? The Hamburg, the Habsburgs. Yeah, the Habsburgs. No idea, but they look really long. Like a Jenny's long leg.
