  Activate your internet because the Hamish and Andy podcast starts in three, two.

• 0:17Speaker 01

  Sorry, it's still buffering. One.

• 0:23Speaker 02

  Ahoy to me horns wogglers. Hamish.

• 0:28Speaker 03

  Good evening or morning, depending on how fast you downloaded the podcast. Feels, I don't think it's in the Harry Potter universe, which would give Jack a very big advantage. Could be, but it could also be in the Roald Dahl universe.

• 0:43Speaker 02

  Ahoy to me snoz wangers.

• 0:45Speaker 03

  It's Roald Dahl.

• 0:46Speaker 02

  It sounds Roald Dahl.

• 0:48Speaker 03

  I think it's like the BFG or something. Is it something like this?

• 0:51Speaker 02

  Very good. You're really close.

• 0:53Speaker 03

  Charlie and the Chocolate, no.

• 0:55Speaker 02

  Ahoy to me wang doodles.

• 0:57Speaker 03

  It's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

• 0:59Speaker 02

  He's got it.

• 0:59Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:00Speaker 02

  Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

• 1:01Speaker 03

  And what is it?

• 1:02Speaker 02

  It's Willy Wonka's like animals or is it from Loompa Loompa?

• 1:06Speaker 03

  Wow.

• 1:06Speaker 02

  Wow.

• 1:07Speaker 03

  Wow.

• 1:08Speaker 02

  It is the monsters of Loompa Land.

• 1:10Speaker 03

  There you go.

• 1:11Speaker 02

  The three main monsters.

• 1:14Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:14Speaker 02

  Are the horns wogglers are sneaky troublesome creatures. That's you, Ham. The snoz wangers are.

• 1:21Speaker 03

  They sound like they do.

• 1:22Speaker 02

  Rejected IPL teams.

• 1:26Speaker 03

  It's the, it's the New Delhi snoz wogglers.

• 1:29Speaker 02

  That's Jack. He's aggressive and a ferocious beast.

• 1:33Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:33Speaker 02

  That's you, Jack. And, and the wang doodles are the most feared of the three, which fell on my side of the fence. But well done, Hamish. Full marks to you. Ahoy also to Caleb. Um, he's in Seattle. Went to hamishandandy.com. If you ever want to upload there, it's very easy to use system.

• 1:48Speaker 03

  I mean, if you've got time.

• 1:49Speaker 02

  Some audio and tell us what you're up to.

• 1:51Speaker 03

  Lot of time.

• 1:51Speaker 02

  Do what Caleb did.

• 1:53Speaker 04

  Ahoy, Andy, Jack and the King Bee. This is Caleb in Seattle.

• 1:58Speaker 02

  Us does.

• 1:58Speaker 04

  I wanted to ask you to help me sort out some confusion regarding my brother who introduced me to the pod. My brother has gone on, he is now, on a forty day solo canoeing and backpacking trip in the wilderness. Whoa. And so he has literally lost touch with not only the common man, but the uncommon man. And yet he's getting in touch with the ancient man, I think, in my opinion, but perhaps not the ancient common man, but the ancient uncommon man with the high-tech camping gear and such that he has. So I just don't know how to categorize him in my brain right now and wondering if you could help me out. Thanks.

• 2:38Speaker 03

  I mean, it's bloody impressive to go a forty day solo mission.

• 2:42Speaker 02

  Yes, but has he lost touch with the common man, literally? Because he's obviously in the wilderness, no one can touch base with him.

• 2:47Speaker 03

  Is his gear too good?

• 2:48Speaker 02

  Is his gear too high-tech to have been able to say that he has lost touch?

• 2:53Speaker 03

  I mean, unless he's got a powered canoe and he's, you know, got a butler going ahead, setting up glamping spots. I think anyone doing a forty day trip.

• 3:01Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's not luxurious.

• 3:03Speaker 03

  Pretty common man.

• 3:04Speaker 05

  Common man.

• 3:05Speaker 03

  Yeah, I agree.

• 3:05Speaker 02

  Yeah, he certainly can't be accused of losing touch. I think he's.

• 3:09Speaker 03

  I mean, there'd be some in the outdoor world, though, that it's like, oh, you know, that's a store-bought canoe, should have carved your own. Still would be some common canoeists that would sneer at that, but I, you know, maximum respect and hopefully, you know, once he's out of the wilderness, he celebrates with this episode and hears us saluting him. Although that audio probably was several decades old, so probably either well out now or.

• 3:31Speaker 05

  Didn't make it?

• 3:32Speaker 03

  Yeah, lost in the legends of time.

• 3:35Speaker 02

  It's been two weeks since Golden Day.

• 3:40Speaker 02

  Didn't really touch on it last week.

• 3:41Speaker 03

  Didn't touch on it. Probably still in a bit of a buzz from last week, but now a chance to get our head around it.

• 3:46Speaker 02

  Credit card has been safely secure again, as in out of your hands, but also the walls are back up.

• 3:54Speaker 03

  Here's what I wanted to talk to you about the credit. I mean, people would have followed along with Golden Day and knew that I had about $70,000 to spend on that credit card. And I should point out, I know 70,000, people hear 70 grand and go, that's such a huge amount of money. And it is, we are giving it away. I should point out, I think there was a few, like sometimes on Instagram comments, people are like, oh, this, you know, it must be nice. So like, yeah, it must be nice for you guys. Spend, this is $70,000 of prizes.

• 4:17Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 4:18Speaker 03

  It's not.

• 4:19Speaker 02

  75, I think we end up going to.

• 4:20Speaker 03

  Did we say 75? Yeah. It's not federal money.

• 4:23Speaker 02

  No.

• 4:23Speaker 03

  It was going somewhere else and we seized it.

• 4:26Speaker 02

  No, no.

• 4:27Speaker 03

  To spend on elaborate prizes.

• 4:30Speaker 02

  There's not a kindergarten that's not getting a playground update.

• 4:33Speaker 03

  That's still on charmers, whether they are or they aren't.

• 4:36Speaker 02

  Yeah, because of our 75 grand, no.

• 4:39Speaker 03

  The, here's the interesting thing. It all happened so quick. And this is the first thing I want to just flag in the spirit of honesty. It all happened so fast and there's also some follow-up logistics with things. Like sometimes there was something we saw. There's one big item in particular.

• 4:54Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 4:54Speaker 03

  I was like, okay, mate, it didn't really have a credit card option. So yes, it has to be purchased and we're going through the process of purchasing that at the moment. But the figure you see on that account on your phone is not the total number.

• 5:10Speaker 02

  What do you mean?

• 5:11Speaker 03

  I suppose this is a two-part question to you. Number one, are you happy with how things went?

• 5:15Speaker 02

  Well, yeah, things are arriving at Marshy's studio. You guys left the address for Marshy, so he's, he's sitting there cutting out.

• 5:23Speaker 03

  Storage is an issue.

• 5:25Speaker 02

  Cutting our packages of music with like boxes all around him. So we have to sort that out.

• 5:29Speaker 03

  Do you remember when we did the world's tours, had it at Hogs' warehouse?

• 5:32Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 5:33Speaker 03

  I couldn't help but notice there was so much space there.

• 5:35Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 5:35Speaker 03

  We're going to talk to Hogs and go, can we use your warehouse? Can we use a corner?

• 5:39Speaker 02

  Is there an item that big?

• 5:41Speaker 03

  There are two items that I would say will come in a box, actually three, that are about the size of a skip or a street sweeper.

• 5:50Speaker 02

  Wow.

• 5:52Speaker 03

  That's too big for Marshy's office.

• 5:54Speaker 02

  Would you want to? That seems like a hassle, like when Jack decided he didn't want the golf.

• 5:59Speaker 03

  You'll want them, you'll want them. Just to follow up on my first question. So you're happy with it?

• 6:03Speaker 02

  Yep, very happy.

• 6:05Speaker 03

  In the frenzy, you'll know that tight accounting and the word frenzy don't go hand in hand.

• 6:12Speaker 02

  Oh, you've over spent.

• 6:13Speaker 03

  It's possible we crept into the eighties. My second question for you is, how's that sponsor going? Cause I would love, I, I don't think it would be too hard to hide six or $7,000. We may have squeaked over. Yes. I don't think it'd be too hard to hide that in a sponsorship. Yeah. Check.

• 6:31Speaker 02

  Yeah, we'll just put it in beverages or.

• 6:33Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 6:34Speaker 02

  Extra sundries.

• 6:35Speaker 03

  Taxis and beverages. Sundries. So, yeah, okay, sponsors hasn't come forward yet. So like, as we said, we'll talk about this now, but we probably will then, it'll lie dormant until a sponsor comes. Yeah. And says we'll do it. That was my other question. Can we, do you feel okay with us? Actually, I'm requesting a pause. I know you're still hunting for a sponsor and this will help you. But the most premium item, the thing I'm most excited about. It is coming from a faraway. Land. Kingdom.

• 7:05Speaker 02

  Is this the thing the size of a car or something else?

• 7:08Speaker 03

  Uh, this is about, yeah, this is about the size of a skip.

• 7:11Speaker 02

  Okay, right.

• 7:11Speaker 03

  And you want it.

• 7:13Speaker 02

  It's bigger than a car.

• 7:14Speaker 03

  Is it?

• 7:15Speaker 02

  A skip's bigger than a car, isn't it?

• 7:17Speaker 03

  Imagine a car came in a box with polystyrene wrapping and stuff on it.

• 7:20Speaker 02

  Right.

• 7:20Speaker 03

  That box would be very big. That'd be a shipping container, smaller than a shipping container.

• 7:24Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 7:25Speaker 03

  About the size of a skip. This prize is the jewel in the crown of.

• 7:30Speaker 02

  Really? It'll be the master prize at the end of the game.

• 7:33Speaker 03

  Yeah. Well, this is where I would like us to narrow in on because sponsors are asking, what are we sponsoring? And I'm like, we're not quite sure yet. So it's hard for them just to sign off on something. But there will be a game show. It's a game show where you, the prize, the, the prize, all the prizes will be given away to listeners. The audience will just be full of listeners. It'll be the hottest ticket in town. Because I think it's gonna be, if you, I don't know, let's say there's a hundred people in the audience.

• 7:56Speaker 02

  Yeah, I think we should go for more, but yeah.

• 7:58Speaker 03

  You're gonna be, well, let's say there's 200 people in the audience. I reckon it'll be a one in five shot to get something.

• 8:04Speaker 02

  Yeah, that again, doesn't tell the sponsor what the show is.

• 8:06Speaker 03

  Again.

• 8:07Speaker 02

  You, you just said, well, it's the biggest ticket in town was something you mentioned. You, again, we need to give a bit more substance. So can I run a few things by you? First up.

• 8:17Speaker 03

  I'm just saying the big, just let me finish. The big item, size of a skip. Four months away.

• 8:22Speaker 02

  Wow.

• 8:23Speaker 03

  Some customisation has to happen, then it goes through a factory, then it gets here. Very worth it.

• 8:28Speaker 02

  Okay, well, that gives us a timeline. So we're looking more like October, November.

• 8:32Speaker 03

  Just bump it a bit, because I think, I could show a picture of this thing.

• 8:36Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 8:36Speaker 05

  No, it's not the same. Price is Right, they always have the thing there.

• 8:41Speaker 03

  It's a jet ski. And then the thing turns around and it's a picture of a jet ski. And we've got Barry here from the Kawasaki factory. Barry, tell us about jet ski. Oh mate, we're putting it through. You're gonna love it.

• 8:52Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 8:52Speaker 03

  Big seat, good engine.

• 8:56Speaker 02

  It's the same way as a lot of your family members give you a Christmas present with something just printed out on a piece of paper.

• 9:03Speaker 05

  Oh, ten nights of babysitting.

• 9:06Speaker 03

  Okay, first one, name. We start out with Bitcoin Blitz and then we were urging back into the Price is Correct.

• 9:14Speaker 02

  I think Price is Correct makes the most sense.

• 9:16Speaker 03

  So the show will be kind of in that feel, but not exactly like that. So we avoid any copyright issues.

• 9:22Speaker 02

  We don't want to get sued, but I do think we want to play a series of, with all due respect to Larry and the gang, kind of shitty games to win the prizes.

• 9:32Speaker 03

  Is it gonna be about price guessing?

• 9:34Speaker 02

  Well, the whole thing about Price is Right was guessing the price of the kettle correctly.

• 9:37Speaker 03

  Yes. I didn't actually, I'm just more thinking like the yodeling game and the putting and all the.

• 9:43Speaker 05

  But they were all just different versions of Guess the Price.

• 9:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, they were, weren't they?

• 9:46Speaker 05

  Like even the yodel was Guess the Price.

• 9:48Speaker 02

  And then, and then basically the yodeler who went up the mountain represented how close you were to the prize.

• 9:56Speaker 03

  Yes, yes. So I didn't record, I think Carly did. I'm just saying, I didn't really write down the prices of anything. That's how we ended up squeaking a bit over the budget.

• 10:06Speaker 05

  Yeah, Carly says she's got them.

• 10:07Speaker 02

  And I've got the bank statement.

• 10:10Speaker 03

  Does only go to me after the fact. Do we need to know the prices of these things?

• 10:14Speaker 02

  Well, here's the thing. Vaughan, for instance, has written in. He said, touching base with regards to the prize distribution system, that is your area.

• 10:23Speaker 03

  What do you mean?

• 10:23Speaker 02

  The showcase and how we present the prizes.

• 10:25Speaker 03

  Yeah, but I'm not sending them out.

• 10:27Speaker 02

  No, no, no, as in like on the day during the game.

• 10:30Speaker 03

  Screams of logistics, I'm not doing that.

• 10:32Speaker 02

  He said, I know you guys are debating whether it's a Wheel of Fortune style.

• 10:35Speaker 03

  Yep, oh showcase where.

• 10:37Speaker 02

  Where there's a showcase and then the contestants pick what they want.

• 10:40Speaker 03

  Oh, good question.

• 10:42Speaker 02

  Or is it more Price is Right style where the prize is nominated for you?

• 10:48Speaker 03

  Hmm, I think it's a mixture of both because let's just say, for example, this isn't in there, but you know, something comes up, but it's like those, those boots that squirt out water that you can fly around in.

• 11:01Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 11:01Speaker 03

  Like whatever they're called. And you know, you, you see them down at the.

• 11:04Speaker 02

  The hot, the, yeah, on lakes and stuff.

• 11:07Speaker 03

  Like jet boots or something. Yeah, boots or something. Again, that's not one of the prizes, but it wouldn't shock you to find out something like that was.

• 11:14Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 11:15Speaker 03

  So let's just say that comes up. If you're there for, but you would prefer something else awesome. You don't want to be forced to win the hover boots. Wouldn't you rather the chance to win the thing you want the most?

• 11:27Speaker 02

  So you think it's more showcase and people go through and pick.

• 11:29Speaker 03

  Well.

• 11:30Speaker 02

  It's less exciting though, because every round they go, what are we playing for? And then you wanted a rotating like system where you can come around.

• 11:38Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's right. It's hover boots.

• 11:40Speaker 02

  It's hover, which I think is exciting. We'll come back to that, but these are the things we have to think about. This is from Ben Benson. Is his name is from Sweden, double S.

• 11:49Speaker 03

  Okay, I was gonna say fake name, but possible from Sweden.

• 11:53Speaker 02

  He said, you've had so many great games over previous years of radio and podcasts. Will any of those feature in the people's game show? For instance, am I naked?

• 12:06Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

• 12:06Speaker 02

  Um, the dupe game.

• 12:08Speaker 03

  Also good.

• 12:09Speaker 02

  Friends galore. We had that game where we brought someone in and with listeners said, is it their dad? Or is it a stranger, stranger or dad? Would we play any of those games that are signature games to our show?

• 12:21Speaker 03

  I like it.

• 12:22Speaker 02

  The chance for people to win.

• 12:23Speaker 03

  Can you imagine someone playing for, playing random John for hover boots?

• 12:26Speaker 02

  Yeah. And Stranger Dad in studio makes a lot of sense.

• 12:31Speaker 05

  Much better than the radio.

• 12:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, the radio. It was all visual. We had to spend half that segment describing what the dad looked like.

• 12:39Speaker 03

  One of the more visual things you can do that really relies on every now and again, when we remember it's an audio format, to say things like, trust us. They look really similar.

• 12:49Speaker 02

  So say, say, say, am I naked?

• 12:52Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 12:52Speaker 02

  Will we have some behind a sheet?

• 12:56Speaker 03

  Or even just seeing their neck, like someone behind a board and their chin's over and you have to go, are they naked? And because this is like, not, we're not filming this for TV.

• 13:05Speaker 02

  No.

• 13:05Speaker 03

  YouTube at best.

• 13:06Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 13:07Speaker 03

  Drop the board. Let's see this nudist.

• 13:11Speaker 02

  There you go. So that's a possibility.

• 13:13Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 13:13Speaker 02

  I like the idea of that as we build this show.

• 13:15Speaker 03

  And then everyone's a winner.

• 13:16Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 13:19Speaker 02

  Finally, Jack, how are you going with the jingle?

• 13:22Speaker 05

  Well, I couldn't. So the instructions were.

• 13:25Speaker 03

  What a surprise. The first line is, this is why it hasn't happened.

• 13:29Speaker 05

  A show only just got named five minutes ago. What was I gonna do?

• 13:35Speaker 03

  Two versions?

• 13:36Speaker 05

  No. That's unrealistic.

• 13:41Speaker 03

  That number's far too high.

• 13:42Speaker 02

  So now this one sent, bear in mind, you are tendering this. This one has already been sent in for Bitcoin Blitz. But to give you an idea of what you're up against, this came in from a couple that are in the music industry.

• 14:10Speaker 03

  Jeez, that's good, Jack. Probably AI, but still very good.

• 14:14Speaker 02

  No, they guaranteed it wasn't AI and then listed their credentials as musical performers and recorders.

• 14:21Speaker 03

  Take it back.

• 14:22Speaker 02

  Which they could have put into chat.

• 14:23Speaker 03

  That could have also been the prompt to go, uh, give me a guarantee.

• 14:29Speaker 02

  I did believe them. I did believe them. We don't want AI ones. We want people legitimately submitting to Tinder. But see, that's exactly what I was talking about. Now they've done all that work and.

• 14:37Speaker 05

  You've gone and changed the name of the show from Bitcoin Blitz to The Price Is Correct. So what a waste of their time.

• 14:43Speaker 03

  But that's showbiz, mate.

• 14:44Speaker 02

  They'll be able to update.

• 14:45Speaker 03

  So break fast, move things and break fast, things, break everything, move fast, whatever the slogan is.

• 14:50Speaker 02

  Okay, so we will, you will tender yours though eventually?

• 14:54Speaker 05

  Yes, yep, next month.

• 14:58Speaker 03

  That was a great insight into your head. Next week, internally, he's just like, what are you doing? What are you doing? Don't ruin the week, we're enjoying unemployment.

• 15:09Speaker 03

  Give us a month.

• 15:11Speaker 02

  Okay, one month's time from now, everyone else get your submissions in as well. And we're the tendering system.

• 15:17Speaker 03

  The good thing about this game show is it's full of prizes you want to win. Let's not forget that most game shows, it's like crockery, a kettle, a daffel iron.

• 15:25Speaker 05

  And encyclopedias.

• 15:26Speaker 03

  Until maybe you get a shot at a car. Yeah, that was the whole game show world. This is, I promise you, wall to wall, and I asked my wife before I did it too, I was like, honey, unlimited, like I'm about to go crazy with this credit card, what would women want?

• 15:40Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 15:40Speaker 03

  And she gave me a list of the stuff that she would buy, you know, if she was just like recklessly spending.

• 15:46Speaker 02

  Beck was so jealous of you.

• 15:48Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 15:48Speaker 02

  She said it would have been the best day. All right, well, there are things to think about, we won't, well, we've got months now.

• 15:54Speaker 03

  Jack, you have a month.

• 15:55Speaker 02

  You've got a month, next time we'll speak about this is a month, but we'll do some work in the background to try and get the formation of the show. And we'll try and get a sponsor.

• 16:04Speaker 03

  We will.

• 16:10Speaker 03

  Um, a little bit of a parenting update, and Jack, this could be a little bit of an echo into your future. You know, we've mentioned before, we've both got little boys, mine's a little older than yours, so sometimes maybe something pops up, you're like, oh, this could come up in Gordy's life.

• 16:24Speaker 05

  Yeah. I mean, Sunny's not feeling little anymore. You send me videos of him jamming on his drums and stuff, I'm like.

• 16:31Speaker 03

  He's a little man.

• 16:32Speaker 05

  Yeah, little man.

• 16:32Speaker 03

  Doing great. And in that vein, you know, it's fast, it goes quick. And he turned 12.

• 16:40Speaker 03

  And a little bit after his birthday, kind of called a family meeting and went, listen, I'm 12 years old now, you know, swearing in our household, you know, obviously the kids aren't allowed to swear. They love the concept of swearing. Yeah. Wait, so you're allowed to swear, but they're not? We tried not to for a while, but that slips. And I think a lot of families run this was like, guys, you can't swear to the kids. Mum and dad do, but just sort of. But you've had, you've got the experience because you did so long on radio where you have to train yourself not to be able to swear. And we don't swear on this podcast very much. Like, you can do it, but it's not like, after the first few times where they catch you like swearing under your breath or something and they're like, you just get a bit over that. You go, you know what? I

• 17:22Speaker 03

  can. I'm not gonna be, stop policing me. It's annoying. I can do it. Mum can do it. We're grownups. We kind of know how to do it appropriately. Yeah, we know how to use it. You explain to them, the reason people don't swear is because depending on who hears it, that could be upsetting to them. It's not that you guys don't know the word. And early days, we went music and like, you know, no worries. Take out music or they're allowed to? No, no, they've been, you just have a lot of. If it comes up in a music. A lot of songs with fair words in them. And especially as you get into the comedy song era, like a lot of, we'd listen to a lot of Auntie Donna and you just gotta just. Yeah, I played Tribute from Tenacious D.

• 18:07Speaker 03

  There's a couple you gotta ride, you know what's coming up. Yeah. And there's a few mother effens in there. That's fine. Mother effens, fine. But when it's like, you know, a couple of people that are Tenacious D fans, a couple of the deep cuts. Yes. Like, you know, you don't always have, skip, skip, skip. That's fine. We'll come back to that song when you're on. So you learn how to ride the volume a little bit on that. But then day to day, they're hearing it, but they will never say it. They'll never, they'll say, sometimes for effect, if somebody wants to like repeat a funny song, you'd be like, can I please? Can I have an F?

• 18:42Speaker 05

  That's so polite.

• 18:43Speaker 03

  And they'll be like, all right, it's for effect. Sure. And it's like an actor going, okay, this is, we have a rule here. There's a, there's a water slide park we like to go to, sort of like a few hours out of Sydney. And there's a ride there that's a tunnel, a dark tunnel. And I, just for the fun of it, go in the tunnel. We can swear.

• 19:03Speaker 05

  That kind of makes sense. I don't know why, but that makes sense.

• 19:05Speaker 03

  Makes me laugh so much just to hear Rudy, she can't get him out past the.

• 19:14Speaker 03

  And, and knowing that you can combo them together.

• 19:17Speaker 05

  Yeah. You'd hear some odd combos, I'd imagine, because she tries to go through what she can remember.

• 19:22Speaker 03

  Once you go, you can have whatever you want.

• 19:24Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 19:24Speaker 03

  It's just like, they run out in 10 seconds.

• 19:26Speaker 05

  Being at Sizzler and you're just like, God, I'm full. Sure, I'll put a sausage in the chocolate booth because I'm not access to everything.

• 19:33Speaker 03

  I don't want to go home.

• 19:35Speaker 03

  So Sunny comes to the family and goes, I think I'm old enough now at 12. I think I can have the S word.

• 19:43Speaker 05

  Ooh.

• 19:43Speaker 03

  I can use it responsibly. And I went, you know what? I said, well, because you've mature enough to bring that up and you've obviously thought about it. I agree. Like, let's.

• 19:53Speaker 05

  Shit, yeah.

• 19:55Speaker 03

  Okay. And he was like, he was like, all right, this is the shit. And I was like, yeah.

• 20:02Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 20:02Speaker 03

  Well, that's me. We're at the dinner table, like, until I trust you. And you know, you're, you've got a great sense of what, you know, you can read the room. You know how to use it. He's like, yes, he is having a ball.

• 20:16Speaker 05

  Right.

• 20:17Speaker 03

  So he's having a ball.

• 20:18Speaker 05

  Would you say he's overusing it?

• 20:20Speaker 03

  No, but he's certainly enjoying finding times to use.

• 20:24Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 20:24Speaker 03

  And then, so Rudy's there, Ru's eight.

• 20:27Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 20:27Speaker 03

  And she put her hand and gone, well, can I have it? I was like, no, you're right. I mean, when you get to 12.

• 20:33Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 20:33Speaker 03

  You've seen Sunny, it's like a pen license. He's got a shit license, so you can say shit. And you're, and she goes, well, so what? I get nothing.

• 20:43Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 20:43Speaker 03

  I said, well, yeah, that's, you've got to wait. She goes, give me the P word.

• 20:47Speaker 05

  What's P?

• 20:48Speaker 03

  Piss.

• 20:51Speaker 03

  So I'm like, you know what, it's not.

• 20:53Speaker 02

  It's harmless.

• 20:54Speaker 03

  It's just soft. It's a very soft. So I'm like.

• 20:56Speaker 02

  I didn't even know what you were talking about.

• 20:57Speaker 03

  I was like, all right, you can have piss. And she's like, piss, piss, piss. There you go. If it's same as Sunny, you have to use it appropriately.

• 21:07Speaker 02

  It's got to, we got to see that you can.

• 21:09Speaker 03

  It's okay. So Sunny, the table and he'll say something like, you know, oh, look, no offence, but this thing that, you know, was an absolute piece of shit.

• 21:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 21:20Speaker 03

  Right. And then bruising there and she'd be like, hmm.

• 21:24Speaker 02

  That sounds like it would have pissed me off.

• 21:29Speaker 03

  Cut. So I'm like, how do I use a piss to agree with this shit?

• 21:37Speaker 03

  And I've, she's since coined the phrase that it was a pissing good time.

• 21:44Speaker 03

  Gotta get him away.

• 21:50Speaker 02

  Hame, a lot of people asking to play this game again. Tell us someone we haven't thought of in a while. Uh, we're halfway through the year now. We played it early.

• 22:00Speaker 03

  As it gets deeper in the year, it is gonna get harder to win hats.

• 22:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 22:04Speaker 03

  It's gonna get harder.

• 22:05Speaker 02

  Hats are sent in from different companies. Uh, Hame, run us through the hats on offer today that people could potentially win.

• 22:11Speaker 03

  I gotta be honest with you. Usually this segment, we are poo pooing one of, if not all of the hats.

• 22:17Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 22:19Speaker 03

  I feel like all three hats are pretty good.

• 22:21Speaker 02

  Have merit.

• 22:22Speaker 03

  Today. We start off with Wolf Hydraulics. That's a flexi fit hat, but it is, that's a high quality hat. You wear this playing sport.

• 22:31Speaker 02

  And it's a pretty cool logo on the front.

• 22:32Speaker 03

  It's actually a cool logo, kind of quite an angular wolf, obviously is what they're going for there, but simple.

• 22:37Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 22:37Speaker 03

  It says, only reason I knew it was Wolf Hydraulics was at the back. It is, it is kind of like a, it's a fitted hat, but that's where the snapback would normally go.

• 22:45Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 22:47Speaker 03

  Yeah, I mean, it really screams. You go, geez, if I needed to use the power of hydraulics to move something, otherwise would be too hard to move for human power. Yep, I could turn to Wolf. Looking at Wolf if they. Cause they trust, I trust their hat. Trust their hat and that's a large, extra large flex fit if you know your size there. Yep. Next we have direct flow plumbing, parachute materials, sports, lightweight, trail hat. Very good for the hipster. Very current. Yeah, very current. I can't pull off that hat, I don't think. It's, it is, it is, the idea is, I mean, you could wear it beachy, sporty. Yep. Kind of fire panel system. Yep. You know. Kind of the inspired unemployers or their friends would get away with. Yeah, they're almost getting too old.

• 23:30Speaker 03

  You can pull it off into your footies. Ryan, our mate Ryan would wear one of these. He could wear all those. He lives in Fitzroy's.

• 23:37Speaker 03

  So that's fine. And then my sister asked whether she could offer a hat. So she has made it through the vetting system with a bit of nepotism. We have a net system. Roof carrier system. We've got a net hat here. Roof Carrier Systems, which is Andy's sister and her husband's business. Yes, roof rack company. Roof rack company. So it just says Roof Carrier Systems there on the left. And I, I've used Roof Carrier Systems, so I can attest to. Me too. And they also do roof boxes. I got a roof box there. I paid full price for mine. I think I got a good deal.

• 24:10Speaker 03

  Didn't you get it for? No, no, I didn't get it for free. From the, the old radio show I used to work on, wasn't it? No, no, no, that was the, the radio show I'd worked for did get some free roof racks that weren't for me. They, they got them for. That's right. And they never gave, they never. Didn't do the on air mention. Yeah. Didn't do the on air mention. And then the mid morning guy had to do the mention, which isn't really the deal. Yeah. Doesn't count. It was meant to be in the breakfast show, a big promotion for Roof Carrier Systems. Yeah. And they forgot, you forgot. I didn't, I didn't know any. Said no, he didn't want to do it. And, and then it got pushed. Yep.

• 24:44Speaker 02

  That's unfair.

• 24:44Speaker 03

  Was that around the same time that you got this alleged good deal?

• 24:50Speaker 05

  I got the good deal just recently. So thank you, guys. And once I'd left the radio show. So I think if anything, it was I parted ways with that radio show.

• 24:57Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 24:58Speaker 05

  That had bad, done bad to them in the past, and now they can give me a good deal.

• 25:01Speaker 03

  Roof carry systems on one side. So black hat, white font, nice and simple. You know, save money on a graphic designer. And then they just says snow tires on the other side.

• 25:13Speaker 05

  They sell snow tires as well.

• 25:14Speaker 03

  Is that a brand or is that just?

• 25:16Speaker 02

  Yeah, good question.

• 25:17Speaker 05

  It's a double, double branded hat.

• 25:20Speaker 03

  Double branded hat. It looks like a brand. It has like a mountain with a snowflake.

• 25:24Speaker 02

  I should know that.

• 25:25Speaker 03

  Green, white, green.

• 25:26Speaker 02

  I don't know, but.

• 25:27Speaker 03

  But it racks the snow tires. Seems like you're just saying a product.

• 25:31Speaker 05

  Yeah, maybe they're the only ones that do it. I don't know. I should.

• 25:35Speaker 03

  Good hat.

• 25:36Speaker 05

  Well, I would say.

• 25:38Speaker 02

  I'd say it's hat three, though, when it comes to like selection.

• 25:42Speaker 03

  Just a, I mean, I think today comes down to head shape, really. You've got a large, extra large flex fit. That's the navy blue wolf hydraulics. You've got a really reliable, stock standard kind of black trucker for roof carry systems.

• 25:55Speaker 05

  As reliable as a service at Roof Carrier.

• 25:57Speaker 03

  Don't expect the Jack deal. I was very happy with the regular deal.

• 26:01Speaker 05

  The H and A loyalty card.

• 26:02Speaker 03

  They do. And then the parachute kind of material five panel hat. Okay. Comes down to your hat preference. That's what I love about the haul we've got.

• 26:10Speaker 05

  Shall we jump into it? And do you have someone?

• 26:12Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 26:13Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 26:18Speaker 05

  About Antonio Banderas.

• 26:27Speaker 02

  Because we've played the game so regularly, I forget how much room we've got to say it. So we generally, we jump in really fast. But we've got plenty of time to say.

• 26:35Speaker 05

  You have more time.

• 26:36Speaker 02

  But that's a great one. I haven't, that would have won. I haven't thought of Antonio Banderas for some time.

• 26:42Speaker 03

  You take as if anyone has watched Shrek or Puss in Boots lately. He does an excellent job in that as a puss. But if you haven't.

• 26:50Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 26:51Speaker 03

  You've been probably Banderas free for the year.

• 26:53Speaker 05

  Blake, ahoy to you. Ahoy, lads. Gusto twos. Tell someone who ever thought of for a while. I'm gonna have to go with Crazy John from Crazy John's Mobiles.

• 27:01Speaker 03

  Whoa. I haven't.

• 27:04Speaker 05

  Real flashback.

• 27:05Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think it's pretty good for me. For a second I had a flicker, but then I think I was thinking of Aussie John from Aussie John.

• 27:12Speaker 06

  Crazy John.

• 27:13Speaker 03

  No, not in rather than Crazy John's. Was Crazy John just Victoria? I think he was. Might have just been Victoria. He was mobiles, wasn't he?

• 27:20Speaker 06

  He was mobiles.

• 27:21Speaker 03

  Yeah. And Big Kev was around the similar time of ads where someone would yell at you. No, you're thinking Ken Bruce. Oh, Ken Bruce has gone mad. Ken Bruce has gone mad. Crazy John versus Ken Bruce. Who's the maddest? Who's gone the most insane? Who doesn't understand pricing the most? Who can take advantage of? Uh, Blake, you've got it. Yeah. I haven't had a Crazy John for some time. What hat would you like?

• 27:42Speaker 06

  Oh, it has to be the roof racks. You had me at the double branding.

• 27:44Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 27:46Speaker 03

  It's gonna be a hit of all the parties you go to. You'll be answering questions about both roof racks and snow tires. Left, right, center.

• 27:52Speaker 06

  Get a Weasel deal, I'm happy.

• 27:54Speaker 03

  Yes, they will honor the Weasel bill. Use code word Weasel at checkout.

• 27:59Speaker 03

  Thank you, Blake. Uh, Katie, ahoy to you, Katie.

• 28:03Speaker 07

  Ahoy, boys. And Mr. President Weasel, how are you guys?

• 28:07Speaker 03

  We're great. Tell us some we haven't thought of for a while.

• 28:10Speaker 07

  I can't actually claim this one. My friends and I, we play a lot of your segments often and we played this over the weekend particularly. It was my husband, Wilson, who suggested this and we got, he won a fake hat, no hats. We don't have, must be nice, don't have hats to give.

• 28:24Speaker 06

  Maybe you'll game one today.

• 28:26Speaker 07

  I hope so, but I kind of like them, so it'll probably be mine, not his. Um, I think I'm gonna go with Crash Bandicoot.

• 28:33Speaker 03

  Oh, no.

• 28:36Speaker 07

  Oh, no.

• 28:36Speaker 03

  I wanna give you the win so bad, but my son has like a Guinness World Record Video Games Edition book. And we were reading it on the weekend together and there is a chapter dedicated to Crash.

• 28:50Speaker 06

  What did he break? What record did he break?

• 28:51Speaker 03

  Well, it's more just like well-known franchises and he was big and I was reading his origin story.

• 29:00Speaker 07

  My brother did say Sonny probably knows about him, so I knew. I should have come with a backup.

• 29:05Speaker 03

  Yeah. Katie, sorry, I'm afraid no hat for you.

• 29:09Speaker 07

  No worries, thank you.

• 29:10Speaker 03

  Hydraulics, sorry, I've just gotta be honest. I've read, of all the things I read on the weekend, that was probably the most I read.

• 29:21Speaker 03

  Because I think he's, he's got, there's like a camp, there's like a chemical mishap or a DNA splicing or something that happens. Generally is for the kind of more animals. To launch him into the world and then he has the power and he spins around and he can destroy things like Tazzy Devil, but in his own unique way. Was that?

• 29:37Speaker 02

  Yeah, he did. That's how he hit things.

• 29:39Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 29:40Speaker 02

  Sebastian, ahoi to you.

• 29:42Speaker 05

  Ahoi boys, the number six, first time, long time.

• 29:45Speaker 02

  Nice to have you on. Sebastian, tell us someone we haven't thought of for a while.

• 29:50Speaker 05

  My person is Barbra Streisand.

• 29:52Speaker 03

  Ah, sorry. Oh, how come?

• 29:58Speaker 02

  Great singers edition. Well, we were looking, Beck was looking and while in New York City, yet all the past, like she was like, it was Breakfast at Tiffany's and we were going through all those yesteryear photos of the stars back of the day that continued on. Meryl Streep was in the, in the mix as well and Barbra Streisand did come up as someone that had a very long career.

• 30:19Speaker 03

  She did well.

• 30:19Speaker 02

  And, and started out as kind of like a chic diva and then, yeah, just kept going. So I'm sorry, mate.

• 30:26Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 30:27Speaker 05

  All good, all good.

• 30:28Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 30:30Speaker 03

  We want to give it, but we must be honest.

• 30:33Speaker 02

  Uh, Sebastian, thank you. Final one. Tess, tell us someone we haven't thought of for a while.

• 30:39Speaker 07

  Ahoi gentlemen and the little boy. Um, my one is Mrs Doubtfire.

• 30:45Speaker 03

  Have we, have I thought of Mrs Doubtfire this year? I, look, it's things I think of a lot. He is up there, she's up there, um, Robin.

• 30:58Speaker 07

  That's distinct from Robin Williams.

• 31:00Speaker 03

  Yes, no, no, not, not Robin Williams.

• 31:03Speaker 02

  Have, I think I have.

• 31:04Speaker 03

  Look, I often use it as a reference. Like you often will go like, oh, it's a bit of a Mrs Doubtfire scenario. If someone accidentally goes to be in the wrong outfit at the wrong time, you know how when she, there's the great scene where she, you know, bouncing back and forth between the, there's a business dinner. I think we might've even watched it this year, but I give benefit of the doubt to say we watched it as a family last year.

• 31:25Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 31:26Speaker 03

  But there's a bit where like, you know, he's having a few drinks, running to the toilet, changing character into Mrs Doubtfire.

• 31:31Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 31:32Speaker 03

  Sitting back down with the family, running back to the toilet, getting out of character. Anyone that has any experience in makeup or television will know that

• 31:40Speaker 02

  Possible.

• 31:41Speaker 03

  It gives the very false impression of how long it takes to get into and out of facial prosthetics.

• 31:47Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 31:47Speaker 03

  But you put that aside because it was the nineties.

• 31:50Speaker 02

  I think I have.

• 31:51Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 31:52Speaker 02

  I've thought about Robin Williams, I know.

• 31:54Speaker 03

  And it's close and it's.

• 31:55Speaker 02

  And we were, we were, we were listing his films more recently. I'd be surprised if Mrs. Doubtfire didn't come in. I mean, it's hard for us to, this is the hard part of the game.

• 32:03Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 32:03Speaker 02

  But we've got to be honest with our gut. I think I've thought about Mrs. Doubtfire.

• 32:07Speaker 03

  I was about to retract, man. I was about to go, you know what? I'll call Ben for the doubt. I think we watched it last year.

• 32:11Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 32:12Speaker 03

  But you do reckon.

• 32:13Speaker 07

  Yeah, I think it was last year you watched it.

• 32:15Speaker 02

  That's right.

• 32:15Speaker 03

  And I was.

• 32:16Speaker 02

  Tess, what, how would you like, how would you like, Tess? I reckon we actually, we're on the line might be in here.

• 32:21Speaker 03

  Yeah, okay, let's do it. What hat, Tess? You've got it.

• 32:23Speaker 07

  Uh, love the plumber hat.

• 32:25Speaker 03

  Oh, well done. Directly plumber. How old are you, Tess?

• 32:28Speaker 07

  Twenty seven.

• 32:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, you can wear this in the zone. Yeah.

• 32:30Speaker 03

  Well done.

• 32:33Speaker 07

  Looking forward to it.

• 32:34Speaker 03

  How about leave Wolf Hydraulics Jackpot? It was actually one of the best hats.

• 32:42Speaker 02

  Guys, I don't flat out lie very often.

• 32:46Speaker 03

  Hmm.

• 32:47Speaker 02

  Trickster, yes.

• 32:48Speaker 03

  Kind of being a liar at the same time.

• 32:50Speaker 02

  I know. Exaggerate it, you bet.

• 32:52Speaker 03

  Traitor, traitor.

• 32:54Speaker 02

  I've been cleverly wording something that's not lying. You and I very enjoy doing that.

• 32:59Speaker 03

  Love.

• 33:00Speaker 02

  But hiding what you're actually doing, of course, but just a blatant to your face lie.

• 33:06Speaker 03

  There is no sport in that.

• 33:08Speaker 02

  Have always struggled with it.

• 33:10Speaker 03

  Yeah, coming up, coming up with fun ways to say what you mean that sort of sound the opposite. That's the classic not lie. But we, but we like to play like, you know, what did you think of the meal? Wow. I wasn't expecting it to taste like that.

• 33:22Speaker 03

  Sounds a bit like a compliment, but it, and it's not a lie.

• 33:25Speaker 02

  Not a lie.

• 33:26Speaker 03

  But you hated it.

• 33:26Speaker 02

  So yeah, do a lot of that.

• 33:28Speaker 03

  Yeah, great.

• 33:29Speaker 02

  But a straight to your face lie, not so much. My dad used to say like, anytime I did anything wrong, the conscience would be so big. By nine o'clock that night, I'd knock on his door and say, hey, I did this like that.

• 33:37Speaker 03

  That's good. And it, and I would back that turn. Are you inherently an honest person?

• 33:42Speaker 02

  Tried to, tried to full lie the other day, just straight to someone's face.

• 33:45Speaker 03

  Was it liberating?

• 33:46Speaker 02

  No, it was uncomfortable.

• 33:48Speaker 03

  This must be what happens in junior real estate agents world.

• 33:53Speaker 03

  When they do their first one on their, like, they're showing a one better and like the outskirts of town. And then the person's just like.

• 33:59Speaker 02

  Water damage. No.

• 34:01Speaker 03

  It's actually waterproofing.

• 34:05Speaker 03

  It's, we sprayed on some black waterproofing, so you'll never get mould there. I was like, oh my god, that felt so easy.

• 34:15Speaker 02

  So you both know that I go get my ears cleaned out.

• 34:19Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 34:19Speaker 02

  Um, at the audiologist.

• 34:21Speaker 03

  You have unfortunately inferior canals.

• 34:23Speaker 02

  I do, I do.

• 34:25Speaker 03

  I do.

• 34:26Speaker 02

  And I see.

• 34:27Speaker 03

  I never, I never get mine cleared out.

• 34:29Speaker 02

  I've got lace, they're lace shaped, not like round, so the wax doesn't come out, waxgate to court.

• 34:35Speaker 05

  What's the lace, what's lace shape, like a bow?

• 34:37Speaker 02

  Like, you know, like a shoelace, you know, like.

• 34:40Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah, I was thinking like a decorative doily that a grandma would have on her table, like a sexy bra.

• 34:46Speaker 05

  You're definitely gonna get wax stuck in there, it's a doily.

• 34:49Speaker 03

  You shouldn't have wax, you should have lace in your ear.

• 34:51Speaker 02

  No, sorry, instead of like a round, like a pin.

• 34:53Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 34:53Speaker 02

  They're like lace.

• 34:55Speaker 03

  It'll be a telly instead of spaghetti.

• 34:58Speaker 02

  That's probably a better analogy. So I go and get them cleaned out. Julie, who does it, she says to me, I go every six weeks, this is 12 weeks, she says to me, oh, she puts a little camera in there and goes, oh, I think you might get, and having an ear infection coming up and see these white spots, da, da, da, da, that might be like a fungal and it could lead to an ear infection, can be very dangerous. Will you go to your GP and get that checked out? I was like, yeah, absolutely. No problem. Six weeks later, I go back in for the clean.

• 35:29Speaker 03

  This is a good one.

• 35:30Speaker 02

  She says, wow, that white stuff has grown. What did your GP say? And I said, he was fine with it.

• 35:39Speaker 05

  He just doesn't serve that life.

• 35:43Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 35:43Speaker 03

  Degreaves faith in the medical system, but keeps Andy's squeaky clean record of a guy that does get stuff done.

• 35:51Speaker 02

  Follows up on things. So I was like, yeah, he's fine with it. And she goes, really? Like, yeah, but I think I'll.

• 35:58Speaker 03

  Says the best he's ever seen.

• 36:02Speaker 02

  And so she says, really? I said, yeah, yeah. Look, you know what? Doctors can be a bit blasé sometimes.

• 36:09Speaker 03

  Yeah, he was on his phone a lot.

• 36:13Speaker 02

  Maybe I'll head back in.

• 36:14Speaker 03

  I'm actually never gonna go back to that guy. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go to a new one.

• 36:19Speaker 02

  I said, maybe I'll go back in and get him double checked. And she goes, yeah, that'd be great. And she's over by the computer. And she goes, and you did go see him? And I said, yes.

• 36:34Speaker 03

  This is, this feels like, I mean, I do this like the dentist all the time.

• 36:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 36:38Speaker 03

  I mean, it's like, you know, have you all the, have you been flossing? I have actually. Maybe there's something wrong with the floss, maybe that's why I've still got gum disease.

• 36:47Speaker 02

  So what I thought we could do right now.

• 36:49Speaker 03

  So do you think she was, my mind would have gone, oh, she can see my Medicare and she can see all the doctor visits I've had. Cause they've got your records. That's why, that's why I would fault of that. I would have, cause you do sometimes come to me for lying advice.

• 37:02Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 37:03Speaker 03

  Quick as a flash, you sort of said, yeah, I did, but it's not my regular one. And they saw me without needing my Medicare.

• 37:11Speaker 02

  It was cash, like at a barbecue.

• 37:13Speaker 03

  Was it a car park? Yes, that's exactly what it was. It's actually my friend's uncle. And we were at his house and he's got all the gear there.

• 37:21Speaker 02

  Yes, and I don't know his name.

• 37:24Speaker 03

  So. I barely know my friend's name. I'll need a second for that.

• 37:28Speaker 02

  I've, since this whole incident, all I've wondered is, did Julie believe me? So she hasn't been able to hear this, but I've got the producers out there to call the clinic right now.

• 37:41Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 37:42Speaker 02

  She's standing by.

• 37:43Speaker 03

  So what are you, what are you gonna ask her?

• 37:44Speaker 02

  I'm gonna ask her, did you believe me, I suppose?

• 37:47Speaker 03

  Like. She has no reason not to, Andy. I mean, you, you meant to be telling the truth.

• 37:52Speaker 02

  I know, but that's, but why would she come back? She like, she was looking at the computer and went.

• 37:57Speaker 03

  And I think she maybe saw your track record.

• 37:59Speaker 02

  She joins us now.

• 38:00Speaker 03

  She can hear you now.

• 38:01Speaker 02

  Julie, are you there?

• 38:02Speaker 07

  Uh, yeah. Hi, can you hear me?

• 38:04Speaker 02

  Yes, thank you so much. And sorry to keep you waiting. You didn't hear just that little bit, but meet Hamish and meet Jack.

• 38:11Speaker 03

  Hello. Hi Julie.

• 38:12Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 38:13Speaker 07

  Hi, how are you?

• 38:14Speaker 02

  Julie, I can hear you very clearly by the way. Thanks to your ear work.

• 38:19Speaker 03

  Well, I'm glad Andy can still hear because I hear there's a chance he might have a bacterial fungal infection creeping into his ears, canals. That he told you he got checked out.

• 38:30Speaker 07

  Uh, yeah. Yes, yes. So last time we saw him for his regular wax removal, we did uh see uh something in the ear that suggested there might be an infection. So I recommended that he go and chat with his GP.

• 38:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah. And then, and then Andy came back and he said, this is from what I understand and and please feel free to discuss Andy's medical records. You don't need to worry about this at all.

• 38:56Speaker 03

  I, I believe Andy, yeah, then came back and he said, yes, I saw the GP and the GP said, don't worry about it. When Andy said, yes, I went to the GP and he didn't, he wasn't too bothered by it. Did you believe Andy had gone to the GP?

• 39:12Speaker 07

  I'm very trusting. So yes, I did.

• 39:15Speaker 02

  Because you did go back to your desk and you went, and you did see him, like as a confirming moment. And it felt like you didn't believe me.

• 39:25Speaker 07

  Oh, no, did I? No, I'm sorry about that. I, I do have to trust people when they tell me these things.

• 39:32Speaker 03

  Well, you should have actually trusted your gut.

• 39:37Speaker 03

  It sounded like your gut was, gut was trying to tell you something, but the desk when you, when your gut was saying, press him on this, there's something slippery about this guy. And it's not just these lace shaped canals.

• 39:48Speaker 03

  And you were correct because unfortunately, Andy lied.

• 39:54Speaker 02

  I lied to you.

• 39:55Speaker 07

  Why, Andy?

• 39:57Speaker 02

  I know. I just, I guess I just wanted to know whether you realised that I was lying and whether we were just gonna walk out and nothing happened. But it's pleasing to know that you did trust me. But now have I misplaced your trust for the future?

• 40:10Speaker 07

  Oh, we'll, we'll have to see.

• 40:13Speaker 02

  Okay, okay. By the way, I have gone seen him. It's all fine.

• 40:16Speaker 07

  Very good. Okay.

• 40:17Speaker 03

  He hasn't.

• 40:19Speaker 03

  I don't think he has at all.

• 40:23Speaker 02

  No, we're good, Julie. Thank you very much for joining us.

• 40:25Speaker 03

  I would say the most common lie, uh, thanks Julie, most common lie you get as an ear doctor would be, and have you poked anything up here? You go, no, because I, if I feel wax in my ear.

• 40:39Speaker 03

  Why do they sell us Q tips? What are Q tips for if they're not like, why are they selling you this perfect ear shaped stick?

• 40:45Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 40:46Speaker 03

  I see them in the

• 40:47Speaker 02

  They're originally called ear buds.

• 40:49Speaker 03

  Yeah. That's what they were branded. Don't stick it in your ear, don't stick anything in your ear. I'm like, well, I can feel it like, you know, after you swim or something and the wax is right on the borderline of is it blocked, is it not? I just, I'm, I see my hand reaching for the Q tip.

• 41:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 41:04Speaker 03

  And my brain is going, you're not meant to do this. But my hand is going, I'm just gonna touch it a little bit. And I'm, I'm actually just gonna put it in and not push it, just where it sticks to the Q tip. And I'll pull it out, suction. And it doesn't work that way.

• 41:19Speaker 02

  No.

• 41:19Speaker 03

  It is a pusher.

• 41:20Speaker 02

  It's a pusher. It's a big plug pusher, the Q tip.

• 41:23Speaker 03

  I still do it.

• 41:24Speaker 02

  Really?

• 41:25Speaker 03

  Still do it.

• 41:25Speaker 02

  I had in there was a skewer. Julie's still there.

• 41:29Speaker 03

  Oh, no. Julie, is Andy meant to put a skewer in his ear? I can't imagine the advice is yes.

• 41:37Speaker 07

  Sorry, guys. I was listening now. I will say, we can absolutely tell when you've been sticking things in your ear. And no, we don't recommend it.

• 41:48Speaker 03

  Okay. Hey, going back to something we talked about, I think this was last year. I gently, and I must stress this, gently, um, used a toilet plunger on my son's friend's head, who got a blocked ear after the pool. Now, I didn't just like plunge it onto the side of his head. I depressed it first, so then it was only gonna be like the suction part, not pushing air in, then pulling it out. That actually worked to clear his ear. Is that a medically supported technique?

• 42:20Speaker 07

  No, we can't endorse that.

• 42:23Speaker 03

  Can't endorse it, but, and did I correctly hear there an impressed silence?

• 42:31Speaker 07

  I think it might've been horrified, actually.

• 42:34Speaker 02

  Horrified silence, yeah, we're used to that one. Julie, thank you so much.

• 42:38Speaker 03

  You know, back in the eighties, washing, washing your hands was considered crazy in the medical community. So you can live and learn.
