And I said the youngers like as if there
2:02
was a lot of them. So then I'm worried
2:04
someone's gonna write it and go, well actually the
2:06
second youngers, why is this shield? And I'm like,
2:08
okay, cool. That's why I threw the apparently in
2:10
at the end. If I'm going a little bit
2:13
off the sheet, it's because
2:15
I'm worried about someone sitting there with
2:17
this voice ready to just take me
2:19
down. It's a high wire act that
2:22
we always start the show talking
2:24
about the most technical thing that has clear
2:26
right and wrongs that we know nothing about. It
2:29
does set the tone well for the show. This is the
2:31
show where these girls would pretend to know anything. Yes, Ahoy
2:34
also to Andrew from
2:36
the US who has used the
2:38
very easy to use system at heymishnony.com to tell
2:40
us what he's been up to. Ahoy
2:43
boys and number six calling in from
2:45
the States today. Ran
2:47
into some Aussies up here last week, hit
2:51
him with an Ahoy, was pleased to
2:53
receive an Ahoy back listeners and fans
2:56
of the show. And
2:58
also pleased to relay
3:01
that we did not mention Mr.
3:04
Ralph, we had no conversation about him.
3:07
Now I did upfront mention
3:09
that we should not mention Mr. Ralph,
3:12
but it went no further than that.
3:14
And I'm grateful to know
3:17
that the international community, even though they were
3:19
up here in the States is leaving
3:21
well enough alone so that our
3:24
weasel can get his precious, precious
3:26
flights. That
3:29
is beautiful. That's lovely. It is just really
3:31
lovely. Yeah, lips sealed everywhere, Jack. That must
3:33
be music to your ears. Yeah, well, I
3:35
mean, he said it a bit too many
3:37
times for my liking, but he's right. The
3:39
USA is ground zero for Mr. R. So
3:42
be careful, be most careful.
3:44
Be very careful over there.
3:48
heymishnony.com if you'd like to take the pledge in
3:50
shirt form. I'm not sure if there's T-shirts still
3:52
available worth throwing it out there. I think we're
3:54
getting very low, but worth a crack. And as
3:59
you know, I... Jack O's, as
4:01
you guys know, over the years, I
4:03
have struggled somewhat with impulse control when
4:06
it comes to being served ads on
4:08
Instagram. Oh yeah. And I've had strong
4:10
times and I have regrettably
4:12
had relapses. Golf,
4:16
ever since taking up golf a couple of years ago now, maybe 18
4:18
months ago, the algorithm
4:21
is onto that. And boy is there a
4:23
product for everything. Like it's the weirdest. Ball
4:25
that goes between your arms to get at
4:27
the wrist brace so your wrist is in
4:30
the right position. I've seen that one. Sit
4:33
your wrist on a little anchor type splint that comes
4:35
up off the wrist. So proud to say I don't
4:38
own that, Jack. Like I do have some of them,
4:40
but I'm so proud. Like I'm
4:42
so proud there's still a few out there where I can go, oh, not
4:45
that bad. I don't have that one. So
4:47
there's the golf stuff. And I accept that now
4:49
because it's kind of my own fault. Cause I,
4:51
I go, well, I know I'm looking at,
4:54
you know, I know I'm looking at golf reels.
4:56
And so it's figured it out. That's, that's, that's
4:58
easy. I'm an easy, I'm a soft target. They've
5:00
looked at my purchase history. Like, hang on. Didn't
5:03
this guy buy a mesmerizing sphere? He,
5:05
we have this guy down as the
5:08
biggest rube of all time. Like, if
5:10
he likes anything, let's get him, let's just get him.
5:13
So I understand there's a bit of a, there's a
5:15
rush to get me with that. So it bothers
5:17
me when stuff comes up.
5:21
Why am I, why is this coming up? Why
5:23
am I, I understand some targets. There's some things
5:25
I understand I'll be targeted for, but this,
5:28
this pan comes up, right? And
5:30
it's a frying pan, like a
5:33
kind of a deeper wall. I'll admit it looks
5:35
pretty cool, but it's a deeper walled
5:37
frying pan, right? And it's like, this,
5:39
it's a chef. It's a kind of a rad chef.
5:41
It's not the guy from the bear, but he has
5:44
tons of that tats, cool American
5:46
kind of chef. He's got a few Michelin stars. Can't remember
5:48
who it is. He's like, this is hands
5:51
down the coolest invention, the innovation of our
5:53
time in the kitchen. Like I freaking love
5:55
this pan. This is an amazing pan. What
5:57
makes it so amazing? take
6:00
you into the mind of an impulse buyer.
6:02
We don't ask those kinds of questions. If
6:07
a cool chef says this is the greatest cooking
6:09
innovation of our time, the only thing
6:11
my brain can think is, thank God I'm
6:13
hearing about this. I
6:20
can't believe I haven't heard about this yet. This must
6:22
be day one. Must've been invented today. I hope I'm
6:24
hearing about this first. I hope they've
6:27
got some left. We
6:31
might have a few more of them. So
6:35
he's just, he's any swear in and I'm
6:38
like, that's cool. He's like, I freaking love this pan.
6:40
This is the best. I'm like, yes, look at that.
6:42
He wouldn't be that passionate about a pan. And
6:47
you see how busy he is. He's in the kitchen, so
6:49
he's taking time out of his day to share the good
6:51
news, to share with all of us his fans. But
6:53
I'm still going, I'm like, this is a sponsored post,
6:55
right? This is all that's like an ad and it's
6:57
like sponsored and that's why I'm getting it. But
7:01
then on these days, you can look underneath and go like,
7:04
what? You can see
7:06
who you follow, who's liked it. Oh,
7:08
you know what I mean? Like the pan. Yeah. Yeah. Rebecca
7:11
Harding. Yeah. I'm
7:14
like, no, I'm getting,
7:16
I'm not strong enough to
7:18
resist this. Why is she
7:20
liking an ad? Don't like
7:23
ads. This isn't even this, like
7:25
I understand when I get random stuff pop up,
7:27
you know, I get a lot of stuff in
7:29
my feed from not that we have like super
7:31
close buds, but the algorithm just has decided that
7:33
I like what he likes. I'll
7:36
get a random thing coming up. Like honestly,
7:38
really example yesterday, just an Instagram page of
7:40
very close up and almost
7:43
like ASMR audio of
7:45
an apple and a samurai sword
7:47
slicing it extremely thinly, right?
7:49
Like, and it's like the noise is like, but
7:54
it's very satisfying to watch because this guy slices it.
7:56
It's slow mo or is it going slow? He's just
7:58
slicing it so slow. So thin that
8:00
it's this translucent piece of apple comes
8:02
off, right? Like perfect thin slice. I actually
8:05
think you'd quite like to watch this. Okay.
8:08
Then it goes to a loaf of bread and he's cutting like
8:10
a micron thick
8:13
slice of bread with the samurai sword and it doesn't break
8:15
or anything. It's like a perfect slice. Proving us just
8:17
how sharp and how good this guy is with the samurai
8:20
sword. You're just seeing an extreme close up of the stuff
8:22
being sliced. Liked by Kelly Slater.
8:26
Kelly Slater. He's on Instagram all the
8:29
time. Right? Like I actually have days, weeks
8:31
where I'll delete it, go back on the app. You know, you
8:33
go in and out. I
8:35
reckon honestly, 60 to
8:37
70% of the random pages I get
8:39
served have been launched by Kelly Slater. He
8:41
is just loving everything out there and it's
8:43
really obscure stuff. But the reason I'm getting
8:45
it is because I follow Kelly Slater and
8:48
I'm just getting what I can just see
8:50
what he likes. Well, Beck is you, when
8:52
you were telling that story before, I'm like,
8:54
Oh, this is Beck and maybe I'm drawn
8:56
to these other people in my life, but
8:58
Beck has to buy anything like
9:00
it, the amount of deliveries, anything she sees,
9:02
she has to purchase it. You guys are
9:04
both. But why is she liking it? This
9:06
is my request to you. Can you please
9:08
say to Beck, you can enjoy the ad.
9:10
Don't like it. Don't like an ad. Save
9:13
it if you have to. God knows
9:15
I've done a few of those. But
9:17
don't like the ad because now it's
9:19
coming at me. Okay. Yeah. And
9:22
obviously I've bought the pan. Have
9:25
you used it yet or it's still in the mail? I don't
9:27
want to say. Well,
9:30
okay. So that's their best
9:32
pan. But
9:34
when you go to the website, they also make other,
9:37
they also make other pans. And while I was
9:40
there, I thought maybe we could just do a
9:42
whole cookware overhaul. So the three other pots and
9:44
pans that I bought have
9:46
arrived, but I didn't, I was in such a
9:48
rush to get this best one ever. I
9:51
didn't realize it doesn't come out till the end of like,
9:53
it doesn't come out, I think until the end of July.
9:56
Right. You pre-bought a pan.
9:58
It looks like it. It's kind
10:00
of like a concert. LAUGHTER
10:04
Maybe when they come out, I might be able to scalp
10:06
it for hire. LAUGHTER
10:10
MUSIC Paying
10:14
people flooding in at hamishnanny.com for their chance
10:16
to play Chit Chat Champion. So let's jump
10:19
into it now. MUSIC
10:24
We're away! Chit Chat Champion.
10:29
The game that tests your ability to
10:31
fill in the blank in a pause
10:34
in a conversation that you determine to be the
10:36
right time to talk. A
10:38
lot of calculations going on
10:40
in the mind when you play Chit Chat
10:42
Champion. It's like a golf swing. There's a
10:44
lot to balance. Am
10:47
I a little too heavy here? Do I do
10:49
this now or do I do this bit now?
10:51
What do I do next after that bit? And
10:53
if you overthink it, similar to golfing, the chat
10:55
doesn't go well. We've got brothers that are keen
10:58
to play against each other. Hamish and Jules,
11:00
Jonas. We'll start with Hamish. Hamish, ahoy to
11:02
you. Ahoy, boys. Congrats
11:04
on the SP, Hamish, and happy birthday to
11:07
the weaver. Thank you.
11:09
Celebrate them. Thank you, Haim. And
11:11
may you also have gusto with
11:14
your P. Haim, why do you think
11:16
that you're better than your brother Jules when it
11:19
comes to chat? I
11:21
wouldn't maybe chuck myself above him. He kind
11:23
of just chucked my name into the Chit Chat. I
11:26
think that was a bit of a power move on
11:28
me, but I've been doing some training last
11:30
night. What, talking to people? My new mate's my girlfriend. Wandering
11:34
up to people. I just kept finding
11:36
cocktail parties and I'd jump into their
11:38
conversation. I love that you're coming in
11:40
as an underdog. Did it sting a little bit when
11:42
you realised, like, your brother obviously thinks you're a bit
11:45
of an easy beat, so he'd throw you in there
11:47
to win? Yeah, classic big brother stuff,
11:50
but you can't underestimate the little brother. I
11:52
got some stuff on him, I reckon. Okay,
11:54
okay, very interesting. Jules, ahoy to you. Ahoy,
11:56
boys, and gusto be with
11:58
you. And gusto. are you pretty
12:02
confident then that you'll take down a
12:04
young Hamish? Well as a big brother
12:06
the answer has to be yes. Alright
12:08
well you guys know how it works. Hamish
12:10
and I will start a conversation. You guys
12:12
will be judged on how well you pick
12:15
up the conversation, add to
12:17
the conversation, you cannot ask
12:19
a question. You guys ready to go? Yep. Jules
12:23
will go on hold, we'll start with Hamish and good luck
12:25
Hamish. Cheers. G'day
12:30
Andrew. G'day. Gee
12:32
we're not too far away from the Olympic Games
12:34
now. Yeah our first time to see breakdancing as
12:37
a sport. Yeah
12:39
they're adding a lot of new sports I've noticed in
12:41
the last couple of years. I think that rock climbing
12:43
and the skateboarding was last time and I think it
12:45
really took off. Wow
12:49
the underdog. The underdog. Oh geez
12:52
boys cheers. Yeah he's happy with it
12:54
as well. Yeah a bit of a smile
12:56
on the face when I heard that pop up. I
12:59
mean you launched well, you cruised
13:02
well and you landed well. Yeah
13:04
that's the thing sometimes you can get away with
13:07
your launch and then you just stay out there
13:09
too long. We
13:11
do occasionally have people that think they get the ball
13:13
and they're running with the ball and they think I'm
13:16
killing this and they don't realise they're running the wrong
13:18
way on the field. Yeah I practiced a
13:20
couple of entries with the boys last night and they
13:22
said the best thing to go on was just a
13:24
little bit of curiosity going on and it gives me
13:27
a second to find my foot in. I
13:30
think you found it. Well homey, okay. We'll
13:32
put you on hold. Jules joins
13:35
us now. Jules your brother has gone, we
13:37
won't reveal how he went. How are you
13:39
feeling? Yeah I'm feeling confident. Okay. Good
13:42
luck. G'day
13:46
Andrew. Gee we're not too far away from
13:49
the Olympic Games now. Yeah our first chance
13:51
to see breakdancing as a sport. Breakdancing
13:55
as a sport, I can't believe that. I
13:57
thought that the skateboarding getting in was a
13:59
good chance. was a bit of a hard
14:01
pass but break dancing, come on. Good
14:07
jills. How did you feel your
14:10
visuals? Could
14:12
have done better but I like to,
14:14
you know, I could have gone
14:16
for two runs there but I just took a single. Well,
14:18
I'm not sure I've did.
14:21
You went for a tactic which we
14:23
see from time to time which is
14:26
mock outrage. Yeah. Like I'm hoping
14:28
that that maybe adds a bit
14:31
more weight to the argument. I
14:33
didn't feel as believable,
14:35
Hamish, that you
14:38
were that outraged with break dancing
14:40
being added. It is impressive but
14:42
I'm a traditionalist when I constantly
14:44
think I think keep it to the swimming,
14:48
etc. Yeah, that was a better
14:50
constructed argument. Sticking to his character
14:52
well, all
14:54
right, well we're bringing this back up. Ando.
14:58
Oh, it was a clear winner. Unfortunately, we had
15:00
to duck for your jewels. You'll listen back, you'll
15:02
have to agree with it. Hamish, you're the winner.
15:04
Congratulations, mate. Oh, let's go. Congrats,
15:07
Hamish. I think we
15:09
know who the new little bro is. Oh no,
15:12
you've always been a little bro. No, you just
15:14
don't blow it now. Don't blow it now with
15:16
some bad chat. Yeah, let's
15:18
have a recount. No, time is done.
15:20
He's tripped over as he's gone to
15:22
get his metal, smashed his nose on
15:24
the dais. Everyone's gone, that's the gymnast
15:27
that won? No, it's all right. I
15:29
mean, you did what you had
15:31
to do when it counted. We could only judge you
15:33
on what happened. As soon as you have a season,
15:35
you can do whatever you want. There's no rule. He's
15:37
already on the end of season trip. He's having
15:39
a great time. See ya lads. I'm talking to
15:42
no value going to you, Hamish. And
15:50
you and I went to uni together. Jackie
15:53
boy, did you know uni? I went to
15:55
TAFE. Good boy. Did you
15:57
finish? I did. Yes, I did a
15:59
film and television. I'm a television diploma. Excellent.
16:03
How long did that take? That's like two years.
16:06
Really? So if you ever need
16:08
me on the TV projects you guys do, I am
16:10
qualified. Often the first question you ask, got
16:12
you diploma? Yes. Just
16:15
like Paramount Films will be like, well, Mr.
16:18
Scorsese, we'd be happy for you to direct
16:20
the, actually, got you diploma? Yes,
16:22
obviously I've got the diploma. Okay, good. Beverly
16:26
Hills, TAFE, good. Couldn't do it without
16:28
diploma. No, great course. Well
16:30
done, Jack. Well done for seeing it through. And
16:33
I did not get to the end of... You're
16:36
a dropout. Well,
16:38
I just didn't quite make it to the finish line.
16:40
Got confused halfway through the race at a drink station.
16:43
Have we done yet? Is this, you know... So you
16:45
got no certificate then? I don't
16:47
have a certificate. And he's got a degree, I got a diploma. I got a hex bill.
16:50
They still give you that. They still give you that. I
16:53
don't have the certificate though, Jack. What happened?
16:56
Well, I was just sent it to
16:58
me in the post. And then my mum caught wind
17:00
of that and said, no, no, no, we need to go
17:02
and wear the funny hats. Wow,
17:05
so I am particularly most educated on the show. Don't
17:07
you remember we did the whole graduation ceremony for
17:10
Andy's degree, like, out on the rooftop, like
17:13
10 years ago, because he never picked up the diploma? And
17:15
then Haim said that he was organizing at the radio station
17:18
and invited my parents in, who didn't
17:20
realise it was a joke, and
17:22
dressed up in a suit, and mum dressed up
17:24
all lovely, and came and sat there and were
17:27
the only people in the crowd. Plastic chairs. And
17:29
plastic chairs. And
17:31
then Haim is panicked and ran out and asked
17:33
for Miss Universe, Jennifer Hawkins, whether she could come
17:35
and sit in the crowd with my parents and
17:37
she said... She said no thanks. She said no
17:39
thanks. I'll be okay. She was
17:41
in the building doing some other interview. Please,
17:44
Jen, 10 minutes. attend Andy's
17:46
graduation. She said
17:48
nah. Only... And then also,
17:51
mum and dad, as you got up and
17:54
made a speech on behalf of the Dean. It
17:56
was only several minutes in that I... I
18:00
figured dawned on both of them that their
18:02
son was. There would be
18:04
no attendance from the real Dean. Do
18:08
we have catering afterwards? We would have had catering. I
18:11
think you had two very disappointed middle-aged
18:13
people. Here's
18:15
my question to you, Andrew. I didn't
18:17
finish. You
18:20
did. Got your bachelor's degree. Am
18:22
I still an alumni? Oh, great question.
18:24
Well, I'm not sure if you're cupping
18:26
this, but the university has
18:28
reached back out to me, to go and speak.
18:31
And they asked about you as well. You finished.
18:33
You're an alumni. And asked about you as well.
18:35
And I'm like, we're not
18:37
the greatest. Like universities are
18:39
great, all of them, you know, they're doing a great
18:41
thing. But we aren't the greatest example of that. We
18:43
stopped going to uni and went to the pub across
18:45
the road and started trying to write skits and mucking
18:47
around. So I don't think that
18:50
we're the best people to go and have a
18:52
chat there. And so I think
18:54
they, I have to be honest, I think they're
18:56
just trying to make us
18:59
feel a bit more like we're alumni now.
19:01
Well, I would understand because you've got a
19:03
piece of paper from them that said you
19:05
successfully navigated somewhere. You navigated the
19:07
course. I don't, but am I
19:09
allowed to still say I'm an alumni? If
19:12
you went, you're alumni. Yeah. You're
19:15
a graduate at some point. Yeah, I think that's right.
19:17
Well, I didn't graduate. That's the thing. But like, you
19:19
know, sorry. So then you'd be a graduate, like, oh,
19:21
I wish to graduate of the university. So you got
19:23
to do as a role. I think
19:25
you got to intend. Yeah. So you
19:27
could enroll in like a summer course
19:29
at MIT in America and go, I'm
19:32
an alumni of MIT. I
19:34
think you can. But also, what does that give you,
19:36
though? I'm bragging rights,
19:38
Jack. I've just found that my
19:41
mission for the rest of the year, enroll
19:43
in it in many correspondence courses I can at high
19:46
level university. So I can say I'm an alumni. Well,
19:48
the reason I ask is I got an email the
19:50
other day congratulating me for
19:52
my inclusion in the King's birthday lists.
19:55
And but they go from the uni
19:57
and they go to great lengths to.
20:00
guard me as an alumni. Oh yeah.
20:02
Now they're coming for us. What?
20:06
How the turns table, because
20:08
this is not the attitude.
20:11
This is not the red carpet service I was
20:13
getting as a student. Nor should I like you.
20:15
Certainly. I would be an interesting card to play
20:18
as a 19 year old. How
20:21
dare you question my attendance. I'll have you
20:23
know, in 25 years, I'll be back here.
20:25
I feel the same. I
20:28
feel that retrospectively. I
20:31
love to be honest. I loved it. This is, I
20:33
mean, I see the letterhead and I've, the
20:36
only things I ever had received on
20:38
that letterhead before were like, please explains,
20:41
like denial of applications for
20:43
leniency, a reiteration
20:46
of the rules that I was trying to break.
20:48
So to see something on the letter here. Your
20:50
assignment looks a lot like Andrew Lee's. Do you
20:53
know? Getting called in
20:55
for plagiarism. And I think it's obviously times of
20:57
change. We were there 20 years ago, but it's
20:59
from the vice chancellor. So I was like, I
21:01
think that's the, isn't that how we had to
21:03
go and see when they thought we plagiarized each
21:05
other's. Yeah. Nice to see you. Yeah, it did.
21:07
I did. I was like, oh, it's a, it
21:10
was a woman's name and I remember seeing a
21:12
man's. I was like, okay, it's obviously a different
21:14
vice chancellor. That would have been the only thing.
21:18
She's calling now. Hello, Hamish speaking.
21:21
Yes, I would be interested in being the Dean for a day. Have
21:34
either of you guys been to
21:36
a proper beauty salon and had a facial before?
21:40
Uh, never. No.
21:43
Had a face massage. Well, that's what I thought they
21:45
were. So Beck's really been on my back. It's
21:47
not facials. Beck's been really
21:50
on my back lately about the lack of skincare
21:52
that you, we, we always have a little joke
21:54
about between all this. She's really
21:56
hitting the year about to hit mid
21:58
forties keeps saying it keeps emphasizing. mid
22:01
and she's a lot younger than you. Yes, he is. And
22:04
she said, she'll never be as old as
22:06
you. I can't imagine. He says it's rapidly
22:08
too far away. She used the phrase, it's
22:10
rapidly catching up with you. Your age is rapidly
22:12
catching up with you. Well, which
22:14
and even your dog has mud baths, so you really
22:16
have to start doing. You're the only one in the
22:19
house that's not taking care of themselves. Did you do
22:21
we, we've already talked about this about the old, the
22:23
spot, right? The liver spot. Like you just, like
22:26
the age box. I noticed you had one up
22:28
here on your face. It wasn't there in old
22:30
photos. Yeah. And I've kind of got one. I
22:32
didn't just, I'm only just noticing it for the
22:35
first time now. An old man's spot. Yeah,
22:37
but I've got one on my head and you're
22:39
just like, well, you know, we've been doing Hamish
22:41
and A since we were like 19 years old.
22:43
So you're going to be, you are going to look
22:46
different and it does happen. But I was just like, oh,
22:48
you know, this isn't, things are
22:50
changing. I'm not saying I think you
22:52
do a good job and I've come to it
22:54
together. Oh, I pop the occasional pimple and I'll
22:56
rub a moisturizer on my face one or two
22:58
every 20 days. And I feel like that's kept
23:00
me going. It doesn't mean you're an adolescent, just
23:03
as you get pimples. Exactly. So
23:05
Bex said, no, I've booked you in, you have to
23:07
go to this thing. I'm like, okay, I'll go. It
23:09
was seem like really important to her. I'm
23:12
thinking it's going to be fine. I mean, you
23:14
get face front massage, like great. Kind of like
23:16
a haircut. Like they put oils and stuff. I would
23:18
have thought. Zoe does it to me. She's done it
23:20
to me before at home with like go to stuff.
23:22
So she would just be like, come
23:24
on, we're doing something about this. And then there's
23:27
a particular order. Zoe always laughs at me because
23:29
I go, I just use all
23:31
her stuff in the bathroom because she has a
23:33
skincare company. But I rub it
23:35
on. Like sunscreen. Yeah, she's got a problem with how
23:37
rough I am rubbing it on. I was just like,
23:39
what are you doing? What are you doing? I was
23:41
like, well, if there's some leftover, I rub it through
23:43
the beard. Exactly. Apparently there's
23:45
this like circle thing you meant to do
23:47
around your eyes. Now I do it
23:50
all like face wash. Doesn't matter what the cream is.
23:52
It just gets a vigorous rubbing. I'll tell you what
23:54
though, on the haircare
23:57
side of things, this is sort of facial because
23:59
of beard. But Jack, do you do this with
24:02
Bianca's products in the bar? If Zoe's away and I know
24:04
I'm not going to get caught, she's not going to walk
24:06
into the shower, I'll go wild
24:08
with her shampoos and conditioners in my
24:10
beard. Like I take, I treat
24:13
my beard to a day spa. Yes.
24:17
And it is amazing. She's called me once and she's
24:19
told me off because there was like a hundred dollar
24:21
shampoo in there or something. But
24:24
I, it feels incredible. Like I,
24:26
it's one of my favorite things to do is
24:28
to have a legal day spas for my beard.
24:30
When Zoe can't catch me. And it's like taking
24:32
in a, like you find a rescue dog
24:35
and you like take it to one of your dog's
24:37
day spas and stuff. It's like watching a reality show
24:40
on Bravo. He's got his beard on the street. I'm
24:44
doing all these wild treatments to this hair. Well, this
24:46
is what I'm thinking. It's
24:48
not that these days, they electrocute your
24:50
face. What? They
24:53
electrocute your face. It's like some scene out of a James
24:55
Bond where they're trying to get the codes off him or
24:57
something. So I lie
24:59
back down and she puts
25:01
blackout goggles on me. Right?
25:04
She said, this is for the safety
25:06
of your eyes. I'm like, hang on. What lotion in
25:08
my eyes? Yeah,
25:10
you don't want to get suds in there. I think I'll
25:12
cope. And then she
25:14
says, it'll feel like just a bit
25:17
of warmth like barley. Then
25:19
I hear, then I hear, then
25:21
I hear this sound. And
25:27
that wand comes closer to your face
25:29
and she starts electrocuting my face. Sounds
25:31
like she's starting the barbecue. It
25:34
does. You actually hold the gas and then
25:36
once it engages, twist it to lower. It
25:38
won't engage, so you twist it to lower
25:40
flight. It's like a
25:43
Guantanamo facial. It was the weirdest thing. She
25:45
said, I thought it might hurt. It hurt
25:47
so much. What's the point of the electrocution?
25:49
She said it. To stimulate skin cells
25:52
or something. Yeah, simulate something. And.
25:54
Get away with a lot. Stimulations is
25:57
such a great buzzword for like
25:59
the. lights, the lasers, the,
26:02
you know, the red light mask you see. Yeah.
26:04
It's just all about, oh no, it penetrates deep. And
26:06
that's the other trick too. This, oh, it goes deep.
26:09
Yeah. Sorry. It's
26:12
happening backstage. You'll see it later.
26:14
So one point I was trying
26:16
to, I was like, if Japet
26:18
gets this done, and she's
26:20
never mentioned that it hurts, like it
26:22
was very painful. And at one point
26:24
I squirmed a lot and
26:26
she said, is this sore? And
26:29
I said, yes. She said,
26:31
maybe it might, for a male's face,
26:33
it may be exploding the hair follicles
26:36
in your beard. Have you shaved today?
26:38
And I was like, no,
26:40
I hadn't. She goes, well, next time you're in here, like
26:43
there's not going to be a next time. She
26:45
said, next. Is it because you're such a leather face? Like
26:47
you've got, you do have that sort of weathered old beaten
26:49
up face. You're such a leather face
26:51
that it can't break through the skin. Whereas Beck
26:54
is like silk. I think it's just, I think
26:56
it's the hair. I think it's the hair. No,
26:58
I think it's the leather face. I
27:02
think it's like trying to get a staple through a handbag.
27:06
She couldn't do it. So
27:08
she says, I'll just try and stay above
27:10
the beard line. And we're hearing, as
27:13
it's still going through and occasionally grabbing me. Then
27:17
she noticed, I go, and I
27:20
says, are you smelling something? I say, yes. She
27:22
goes, that'd just be burnt skin. What
27:25
is this place? This place that Beck
27:27
has sent me to. So I said,
27:29
okay, I think that's enough of that. I'm
27:32
smelling that pretty strongly. And
27:34
she said, right. So you're not enjoying that. I
27:36
said, no, no, no. She goes, well, I'll just
27:38
finish up with. It's like the origin story for
27:40
a Marvel villain. Leather
27:42
face. You know, he
27:44
went to, he went to get a beauty
27:47
facial one time and it went wrong. Yeah.
27:50
She then says, that's okay. We'll just finish
27:52
up with inside your mouth. They
27:55
electrocute the inside of your mouth. The inside
27:57
of the cheeks. The inside of the cheeks.
27:59
to try and apparently to try and
28:01
stimulate the muscles inside and pull it
28:03
up. And I stimulated
28:06
these mouth muscles by saying, no, I'm
28:08
not going to. Yeah. Oh,
28:10
no, thanks. Not doing that. Yes.
28:13
But I will tell you the code. How much was
28:15
this? How much? Don't know, because Beck paid for it.
28:18
But I tell you what. We've got bad news. At
28:20
no point today have I thought you looked any
28:22
different. Yes, I haven't noticed either. In
28:24
fact, if I had to, you've had to look at
28:27
the black box recording in my head. When
28:29
you sat down, I was like, there's all leather face. I
28:33
think, unfortunately, I can't lie because it's in my
28:35
log already. It's in, it was said. The only
28:37
thing I've noticed about Andy today is when Hamish
28:39
pointed out his old man spots, so you do
28:42
look older to me than normal. She might've stimulated
28:44
it. She wanted to get rid of it. She
28:46
said, can I burn off the old man spot?
28:48
Right. She didn't refer
28:50
to it as the old man spot. Let me get
28:52
this lightsaber. I'm going to poke it through your head.
28:55
No, keep it Ando. Hey,
29:02
boy, are we excited about this one? After speaking
29:04
to Charles last week on the pod, if you
29:06
missed it, please don't have to go back to
29:08
the start, but just catch that one because it helps for this
29:10
segment, but he wrote in hamishnanny.com.
29:14
He said, brace yourselves for the
29:16
most ribbiting special skill.
29:19
And he had that ribbiting in quotation
29:21
marks because it was frog related. And
29:24
he spoke of a girl
29:27
that could identify a frog by its
29:29
croak. And we thought that's our show.
29:31
If that's true. This is
29:33
what special skills were invented for. We had
29:35
the early days catastrophe with, is it
29:37
a duck, is it a coot? And
29:39
we've learnt our sort of species
29:42
lesson there. Maybe we're not the show
29:44
for ducks. No. We could be the
29:47
place. Is it a duck,
29:49
is it a coot? A coot is a
29:51
duck. We could be the place for frogs
29:53
and people that can identify their individual croaks.
29:56
Charles has put us in contact
29:58
with Jordan. She. joins us
30:00
now. Ahoy. Hi. Now,
30:03
Jordan, you are a young
30:05
woman that is specialized in amphibian
30:08
pronunciation or croaks and ribbits.
30:10
What is your title in the fro- like what,
30:13
what degree do you have? Do you have a
30:15
frog related degree or are you just an enthusiast?
30:18
Well, a ditical, a me, a ditical
30:20
and bee. So I am a, we
30:24
call, we're called a herpetologist. So
30:26
I study reptiles and amphibians. Okay.
30:30
I am currently doing my PhD. So
30:32
I'll also be, I'll almost be a
30:34
doctor in frogs. But
30:36
I, yeah, my,
30:38
my day job not
30:41
long ago was at the
30:43
frog ID app. So I was a
30:45
frog ID validator. So my
30:47
nine to five job was listening
30:49
to frog calls and identifying them.
30:52
Yeah, based on their croaks. Oh my
30:54
gosh. So do people send them in? Is that how
30:57
it works? Do people send in and they go, I
30:59
recorded this frog here and I think it's this frog.
31:01
Yes. Yeah. So the frog ID app is a free
31:04
app that you can download. And
31:06
yeah, it's, you can go outside and record your
31:08
frogs in your backyard or in your local area
31:10
and then they get sent to us. And
31:13
there's a team of us doing this.
31:15
So it's not just me. I'm not
31:17
the only frog call export. Is
31:21
it a free app that does involve in-app
31:23
purchases? Like,
31:26
could it be like, whoa, you've requested the Toad
31:28
Pack. That will be $4.99. We
31:33
probably should have thought of that, but no, it's all completely
31:35
free. Good on you. I
31:37
mean, so if you guys are
31:40
all obviously volunteering your services here
31:42
to help mankind's understanding of frogs.
31:45
We know Carly, Carly our producer
31:47
who has sourced today's frog calls.
31:50
She's a convert. She bloody loves that. Completely
31:53
fallen in love with frogs and frog calls. Can
31:56
I ask a question? We've listened. I
31:58
listened. We listened to a few of these just before we. got
32:00
you on. To me, it's a
32:03
few of them actually sounded, I thought
32:05
Andy was doing a funny, sounded like
32:07
Andy doing the frog call. Like some
32:09
of them sound like a human mucking
32:12
around. Did you ever have people send them
32:14
in that were doing that, that were like,
32:16
let's, let's see if we can stitch up the frog
32:19
people and we'll send in us doing the voice? Oh,
32:21
absolutely. If I could get money
32:24
for every time that someone had
32:26
just went ribbit and then started
32:28
laughing. Yeah. Guys,
32:30
that's not on. The frog people that
32:32
volunteer in their time, they're working hard,
32:34
they don't need prank croaks coming
32:36
in. Anyone leave a fart? There's
32:39
a few, but I don't know if they're
32:42
on purpose or accidental. As
32:44
we've seen from this show, both are
32:46
possible. Jordan, thank you so
32:49
much for doing this for us. Charles,
32:51
the one that recommended you, you seem
32:53
like you got a supreme skill, but
32:55
we do have to test that. There's
32:57
going to be five frogs with five
32:59
different sounds. You said you're confident
33:01
you can do this down the phone, which is
33:03
incredible. We've checked. There's no
33:05
type of frog shazam where you can be holding the
33:07
phone up to some kind of app that identifies it
33:09
for you. So it'll be coming out of your brain.
33:12
Five of them. Hamley saying four out of five gets
33:15
her a coin. Yeah, yeah,
33:17
I think four out of five will get you a
33:19
hey, mission Andy coin. Jordan, are you ready?
33:21
I hope so. I think so. Yes, let's
33:24
do it. So
33:33
what was that frog? He
33:35
Jordan will know just
33:38
one croak and she'll guess
33:40
the time. Now,
33:43
what was that frog? Jordan
33:45
will know. Let's
33:48
hope she lives up to
33:50
the high. We
33:52
really do. The hype is high. The hype is high. Jordan.
33:56
We're going to be very quiet. No
33:58
fake sounds. But, hold
34:01
him in boys. Ahhh! Can't
34:04
promise anything for Jack. Ah,
34:07
here's your first prop. Ooh,
34:16
okay. Um, that,
34:21
hmm, I'm gonna take, I guess.
34:25
Mm-hmm. Hmm, I'm
34:27
worried you've already stumped me. Um...
34:30
So are we. Mm.
34:33
That, uh... Chuck
34:37
any odd frog in there. Um,
34:41
a tree frog. No, it was
34:43
a Martin's Toadlet. Ahhh,
34:46
okay. Does that sound familiar
34:48
now? It's not like I said, oh gosh,
34:51
of course, it's a Martin. That
34:54
looks quite a rare species, so you really, you
34:56
threw me a loop straight away. I have to
34:58
pick up my game. No, that's my
35:00
fault. It is quite small, no, it's
35:02
medium-sized frog, only 3.5 centimetres in length
35:05
from memory. Alright,
35:07
alright, Jordan, you can now not miss
35:09
any of the next four. Here's your
35:12
second. Alright, you're boys for a great
35:14
comeback. Okay. Hmm,
35:22
okay, this one's definitely one of
35:24
the Latoria Frogs. So
35:27
a tree frog based frog.
35:30
Um... I
35:33
wanna say it
35:35
might be a Centralean tree frog?
35:39
Hmm. Ahhh!
35:42
It might not be. No, Jordan, it
35:44
might be that. We've
35:46
got written here, Dally Waters Frog
35:48
from a cyclorama business. Oh,
35:51
I know. Yeah. Or Dally
35:53
Waters, probably even found around the Dally Waters area,
35:55
but how do we feel about
35:57
that now we know the name? Does that sound...
36:00
more like it. I mean
36:02
yes I am aware of that frog, the
36:04
NT is not my strong point but I
36:06
did claim that I could do any Australian
36:08
frog so. True but maybe maybe
36:10
with. Not doing well. But with three
36:12
fast ones you could finish with honour.
36:14
Yes that's true. The key point up
36:16
for grabs but then if you miss
36:18
on the next one you definitely risk
36:20
being one of the worst players on
36:22
our show. Yeah we're right at the
36:25
tipping point here. Yeah of being still
36:27
memorable but for very bad reasons. I
36:32
should probably claim now that this is not
36:34
a reflection on the frog id app this
36:36
is an reflection on one
36:39
false claimed employee. No
36:42
Jordan you've got this. Here comes frog
36:44
number three. Okay. Okay
36:55
I know this one 100%. Go
36:58
for it. This is the quacking frog
37:01
from WA. She's got it. Quacking frog
37:03
from WA. All right here we go.
37:05
All right here we go. The wall
37:07
of shame. Well charging back. Charging. Charging
37:09
back. What amazing that frogs can
37:12
quack. Yeah. Because they say
37:14
that isn't that they're saying if it looks
37:16
like a duck and quacks like a duck
37:18
is it doesn't look like a duck because
37:20
we have the picture of the frog here.
37:22
Yes but it's still the quacks like a
37:24
duck. Quacks like a duck that's why they've
37:26
included looks like. It looks
37:28
like a frog and quacks like a duck. It's a
37:30
quacking frog. Okay number four here we go.
37:32
Boom go for it. Okay.
37:42
I'm not I'm not popping out of this
37:44
one but I think it's the perfect socialist
37:46
frogs for a nursery frog but
37:49
I can't tell you the exact species. We
37:52
don't have that information to have. We don't
37:54
you sort of keep mentioning it's almost like
37:57
you're mentioning like the band it's from. I
38:00
can't remember the singer's name. I'm a complete singer, yeah. I
38:03
know it's someone from Wutang Clan, but I
38:05
can't remember which guy it is. We
38:09
have down here, Rain Whistling Frog. Is that
38:11
part of the same band? No,
38:15
it's not. Oh, no. Okay.
38:19
Now we're in real tricky territory. Do you
38:21
want to give up now at a 25%
38:24
hit rate or
38:26
play on for the possibility? The
38:29
tricky thing is the final frog is a
38:31
Northern Territory frog, not your favourite area of
38:33
frogs. Oh, true.
38:36
Look, I'm going to go down with the ship. Great.
38:39
I've, you know, I've committed, so let's see.
38:42
Okay, here we go. It's
38:50
like he kind of is getting zapped or something, doesn't it? Yeah, sort of.
38:53
It sort of sounds like you're stepping on it. The
38:55
noise when my cat's makes it, you step on him. How
38:58
do you feel about that one? Okay. It's
39:02
a toadlet species. Correct. Good.
39:05
Good. Which is a frog we
39:07
all have learnt today. It's probably
39:09
about five or six toadlets it could
39:12
be. So I'm just
39:14
going to take my
39:16
best educated guess and say Northern
39:18
Toadlet. What would number two
39:20
guess have been? LAUGHTER Hmm,
39:24
okay. Maybe a Howard Springs token. Yeah.
39:27
She's on your second guess every time. Second
39:30
guess specialist. Jordan, well done. We
39:34
loved having you on. You cannot tell everybody that you're that's your
39:36
special skill because we have proved that you can't do it, but
39:38
we will send you out a token of no value. It's
39:42
probably one of our best fails, to be honest. It's probably
39:44
one of our most interesting fails. Yeah, an interesting fail. I
39:46
mean, there was no, I mean, because also the skill level
39:48
requires a lot of work. Yeah.
39:52
I mean, I was surprised to find out. Oh, I'm
39:54
much better than throwing an engineer a ceiling. He
39:57
did get very close on his second chance. Thank
40:00
you very much for joining us. Appreciate it.
40:03
Thanks for having me. Bye. Thanks,
40:06
John. Bye. Tell
40:13
me if you agree with this
40:15
theory, right? Here's
40:17
my, here's my, I'll go general theory on
40:19
the speed of things. Okay. Familiarity
40:23
breeds are like speed. Okay. If
40:26
you're familiar with something, you can be fast. We've talked about before with speed
40:28
corners in the home. Yes. I
40:30
was thinking about this the other day. I was like, I
40:32
don't think I'd nominate this as a special skill, but
40:35
I reckon I could get close where here's
40:37
one example of it in nature. If
40:40
you showed me someone driving into their driveway
40:42
at home, I could tell you how long
40:44
they've lived in there. That's
40:46
so true. Because we've got
40:49
like a quite an awkward angle on
40:51
our driveway. And when we first moved
40:53
in, it was a slow approach. I
40:55
come into that thing now. With
40:59
the zero braking and
41:01
land and I landed on a dime. Yeah. I
41:04
landed on a dime and you go, that guy's lived in that house.
41:06
He's, it has to be tears. That's a tear. Yeah.
41:09
Has to be tears. My whole warehouse apartment,
41:11
which everyone used to go, oh my God, it's so tight to get in
41:13
and out of. I'm like, what do you
41:16
mean? No, we, we, we, when we say
41:18
your place, we dented the car door coming
41:20
out of your driveway. You've always known the
41:22
parameters of your cars though, Andy, from when
41:24
Andy and I first met and he's on
41:26
his P's and would take very
41:29
tight gaps in the traffic. Hmm.
41:33
Hmm. Without flinching and we would
41:35
always come up with a, he really knew the
41:37
parameters of the Nissan Pintao. I,
41:39
I saw a guy the other day I was,
41:41
I saw a guy in a Tesla Jack, one
41:44
of your friends in a Tesla three who really
41:46
didn't know the parameters of his car. He didn't
41:48
know. Terrified trying to get between the garbage
41:50
truck and the traffic parked on
41:52
the street like a good foot either side.
41:54
And I'm like, mate, you have the
41:57
world's best radars on that car. Yes. It
42:00
varies like it's, I find the
42:02
Tesla's the first car I've had with any kind of
42:05
sensors on it that tell you if you're
42:07
getting close to something. So I don't really
42:09
know what to compare it to, but it
42:11
starts making a lot of noise before there's
42:13
any real danger. We may have talked about
42:15
this before, but there should be different modes
42:17
within the car about how much censoring you
42:19
want in your car. We talked about it
42:21
with my car's lost its ability
42:23
to sense it. My car's getting old because
42:26
I hit, remember I had, I hit the
42:28
tree, then it beat. Fucking had woken up
42:30
the security card. Sorry. That's
42:34
my one. So coming into my gate,
42:36
like there's only one way to get through
42:38
it. And I fit in it every time except the car goes,
42:40
yeah, yeah. I
42:43
think it should just be, hey, I'm cool, bro. Should be
42:45
like, I'm all right. Or it learns that you go there
42:47
all the time and you haven't had an accident there. Yeah.
42:49
Just cause just letting you know, and we're entering a relaxed mode now. Here's
42:52
another example of speed. Familiarity.
42:55
Familiarity, breeding speed. In
42:58
my house is one of the crystal car washes, like, you
43:00
know, four minute car wash for 16, whatever
43:03
12 bucks, nine bucks, whatever it is. You
43:06
have to drive onto, first you
43:08
have to drive onto a circular turning thing
43:10
to line the car up. And then
43:12
you have to drive the car to the bit where
43:15
the wheel goes in the guiding system. The
43:18
franticness with like when you're driving your front,
43:21
when you're driving, you're inching your car forward
43:23
to get the wheel into the guide thing
43:25
for the car wash. The
43:28
way the guy waves at you like, come on,
43:30
come on, come on. Like the speed at which
43:32
he's calling you in. It's like you're a hundred
43:35
meters from the thing. Like he is
43:37
like, come on, come on, come on. But
43:39
I can't be that far off. Like I'm almost
43:41
hitting you, but he's like so angry at you.
43:43
Like just come, come, come, come, come. Like, you
43:45
know, do you need a bit of extra oomph
43:47
to get over? Like, is it to catch the
43:50
wheel? No, you don't. And then he changes. It's
43:52
always the same guy. And he goes from, and
43:54
I've said to the kids, like, watch how fast
43:56
this guy will go. I'm like, come on, come
43:58
on. match the
44:00
scenario. He waves so fast
44:02
and you're inching forward like, you know,
44:04
creeping forward and he's acting
44:06
like, mate, you keep this speed up, it's going to
44:08
take you an hour to get on the plate. So
44:10
he's like, more, more, more, more, more. But you inch
44:12
forward and as soon as you near it, he's frantically
44:14
yelling stop, like you're about to run him over. He
44:20
needs another gear. He needs to
44:22
go nearly, nearly. Yeah, and you'd
44:24
think he'd be familiar. And
44:27
he's doing it every day. And it's the same.
44:29
It's actually the same now I think about it
44:31
as airport security. You know, when you've had like,
44:34
you don't want no one to do the wrong thing at
44:36
airport security. If it goes off and you go back and
44:38
you take your belt off or whatever. The wave
44:40
through after that, like, come on, you're holding
44:42
everyone up. It's like, all right, we get
44:45
it. You're here every day. I don't
44:47
have the speed capable to me because I don't
44:49
operate in this system every day. You guys should
44:51
see me in my driveway. I'm amazing. Okay. I
44:53
wish I could just show you. I'm going to
44:56
get a little video of me driving my car
44:58
into my driveway to show them that I'm actually
45:00
very good at speed in situations that I'm familiar
45:02
with. I love taking time out to view that.
45:10
