  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 A, Hamish, letters of the alphabet, types of holes.

• 0:32Speaker 03

  And Jack is a pint. And Andy is a black.

• 0:38Speaker 03

  And I find that offensive.

• 0:41Speaker 02

  No, it's not that you're an A-hole. Um, ahoy to me O.

• 0:46Speaker 03

  Jack.

• 0:46Speaker 02

  Vows.

• 0:47Speaker 03

  Vows? Can't be vows, vows are bad for vows. This game is over.

• 0:52Speaker 02

  Ahoy to me U.

• 0:54Speaker 03

  Oh, no.

• 0:55Speaker 02

  Andy, this is me.

• 0:56Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 0:57Speaker 02

  Then we, then we're complete. If I saw the type of A that you had, Ham, you'd be more of a

• 1:06Speaker 02

  if I saw the type of O you were, Jack, you'd be a

• 1:12Speaker 03

  Are we the, are we the only vows that exist in another language?

• 1:16Speaker 02

  Close. If I saw the type of U I was, I'd be in

• 1:21Speaker 02

  with lips rounded.

• 1:24Speaker 02

  What do you think we are?

• 1:26Speaker 03

  Yeah, French vowels or Japanese vowels.

• 1:29Speaker 02

  What about those letters that might sit? They get a little crown.

• 1:34Speaker 03

  Oh, they're the little, they're the letters that get the dots and stuff?

• 1:37Speaker 04

  He's got it. They are the three letters that get an umlaut.

• 1:42Speaker 03

  Doesn't it? Are they only just get the dot?

• 1:45Speaker 04

  I, I can have an accent, but the umlaut is the double.

• 1:48Speaker 02

  The double dot.

• 1:49Speaker 04

  Which you should know, married to an umlaut.

• 1:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're married to an umlaut.

• 1:54Speaker 03

  But isn't umlaut the double dot? No, it's something else.

• 1:57Speaker 02

  No, the umlaut's a double dot.

• 1:58Speaker 03

  Is it?

• 1:59Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:59Speaker 03

  I thought it had another name because I called it, I think I got, I got corrected and I called it an umlaut once and it was something else. But yeah, then Zoe, Zoe's got one on, on the E.

• 2:09Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:09Speaker 03

  And famously an ex-boyfriend gave her a Valentine's card and put it on the O. And she went, she went, hey mate, not the name. Zed, Zed, he knew it wasn't Zed. He knew it was, he's like, that doesn't look right at all.

• 2:25Speaker 03

  God, he really made me look good.

• 2:26Speaker 04

  Well, this one didn't list E as one available for umlauts. So, but there must be.

• 2:32Speaker 02

  Maybe it's not the double dot.

• 2:33Speaker 03

  Double dot's not the umlaut. No, I, I am.

• 2:36Speaker 02

  Oh, now Lys is panicking. Lys is absolutely

• 2:40Speaker 03

  Yeah, okay. Lys is on it here. We're just gonna do some fast.

• 2:47Speaker 03

  What's the double dot?

• 2:49Speaker 02

  On the top.

• 2:50Speaker 03

  Over an E called.

• 2:52Speaker 02

  Called.

• 2:53Speaker 03

  Something else.

• 2:55Speaker 02

  Is it?

• 2:55Speaker 03

  It's a diuresis. Yeah.

• 2:57Speaker 02

  What do you think, Lys? Do you want to counter that?

• 2:59Speaker 03

  For a tremor.

• 3:00Speaker 02

  Tremor. Oh, it may be, so maybe.

• 3:01Speaker 03

  Classic example, Zoe. Zoe.

• 3:04Speaker 02

  What if it's over an A? Is that called an umlaut? Like, is it, is it different over?

• 3:07Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah. I'm, I'm with someone fiercely defending their ground.

• 3:14Speaker 04

  Same hat, but depends who's wearing it. It gets a different name.

• 3:16Speaker 03

  Their ground.

• 3:18Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 3:18Speaker 03

  Uh, over an A.

• 3:20Speaker 02

  Is it, what's it called?

• 3:22Speaker 03

  Is, what's it called?

• 3:25Speaker 02

  Didn't need the defending ground bit.

• 3:26Speaker 03

  Well, I think I just gotta let him know what's going on here.

• 3:29Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 3:30Speaker 03

  If it's an A, the two dots are called an umlaut.

• 3:33Speaker 02

  Really?

• 3:34Speaker 03

  So your fiercely defending companion is standing their ground over an umlaut. They've stood it well.

• 3:41Speaker 02

  They have stood it well. Zoe does not have an umlaut. We today did have an umlaut. Well done.

• 3:47Speaker 03

  The double dots have a different name depending what letter they're over.

• 3:50Speaker 02

  Yeah, depending on the head that they have, that they sit on.

• 3:54Speaker 03

  Yeah, that, which is not the same as hats, Jack.

• 3:57Speaker 02

  No, no.

• 3:58Speaker 03

  You can't go, so you can't come in here with a baseball hat while popping on Andy. Oh, nice top hat, sir. Come in.

• 4:05Speaker 03

  That is not how it works with hats.

• 4:06Speaker 02

  That's not how it works. Ahoy also, well done, Lys, by the way. A big sigh of relief from outside the booth there. Um, ahoy also to Steph, uh, who used the very easy to use system, hamishandandy.com to upload what she's been up to. We love hearing from you.

• 4:19Speaker 05

  Ahoy, boys, and gusto to you all. Steph from Sydney here. I just wanted to give a quick thank you to Andy for sharing his gas leak story on the pod. That inspired me to finally reach out to my real estate about the gas like smell that had been coming from the cupboard next to my cooktop where the gas meter is located.

• 4:38Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 4:39Speaker 05

  Totally get it. I was nodding along with Andy about, oh, the admin when they're renting, blah, blah, blah. Uh, turns out they treat it like an emergency. So I did get a plumber sent same day. Initially, he couldn't find the leak and then he was able to get it eventually and congratulated me on my superior sense of smell and suggested that I should become an apprentice plumber. I guess he put me to training right away because after he left, I did have to restack the cupboard myself. I'm assuming Andy got some sort of premium service. Must be nice. Anyway, thanks again, Andy. And, um, if you smell gas, don't leave it, I guess.

• 5:22Speaker 03

  Um, yeah, that's a government, government message.

• 5:24Speaker 02

  I didn't, well, I might have got a premium service, didn't pay for it though, because that is on the owner of the property to fix those things when you're renting.

• 5:31Speaker 03

  Yes, Jack. Um, and just on that quickly, Ando, and then we'll move on to what we have to do. Speaking of Andy's renting. Um, Andy turned to me actually on the weekend and goes, we have a treasure trove of content, just letting you know, coming for next year. Um, yeah, because, uh, I'm on a building WhatsApp with all the things that go wrong in the apartment building and everyone absolutely losing their bundle over various issues. And mentioned a few of them to me and they do sound

• 5:58Speaker 02

  terrific.

• 5:59Speaker 03

  But, you know, quite dreadful, quite annoying.

• 6:01Speaker 02

  Terrific, but terrific.

• 6:03Speaker 03

  Yeah. People are absolutely blowing up. And Andy goes, I just have to wait till I move into the new house before I can start reading this stuff out on here.

• 6:12Speaker 03

  But for dedicated listeners, little 2020 seventies, he didn't tell me any, kind of, kind of indicated like one arena of play.

• 6:20Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 6:20Speaker 03

  And even just hearing that, I was like, oh, that is a, that's a bad one.

• 6:27Speaker 02

  Uh, let's jump straight into this. In fact, we should just grab him out of his own sound booth.

• 6:32Speaker 06

  You're under the microscope right now. A powerful microscope.

• 6:35Speaker 01

  We're all gonna be under a microscope.

• 6:36Speaker 00

  You know what? I think, I think maybe it's time you put Darcy. Under the microscope.

• 6:42Speaker 02

  Welcome back to us. It's been a while.

• 6:44Speaker 03

  Thank you, boys.

• 6:45Speaker 02

  As per usual with this segment, where we put a, a person who traditionally likes being very much off air.

• 6:51Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 6:52Speaker 02

  On air and under a microscope.

• 6:54Speaker 03

  Drag, drag him into the light like a vampire at 10 a.m. in the morning. Kissing and steaming.

• 7:02Speaker 02

  Because I've found out something about your life.

• 7:06Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 7:06Speaker 02

  That, uh, from your wife who works with me.

• 7:09Speaker 03

  It's amazing, Darcy, because I, I look across at you on that side of the desk and, um, you know, even though you have exactly the same mic setup as Andy, it feels like that footage you see of like Mark Zuckerberg at the Senate Inquirer.

• 7:22Speaker 03

  Sitting there going.

• 7:23Speaker 02

  With a single light.

• 7:25Speaker 03

  Yeah. I don't know what's gonna come here, but I know it's not good and I'm waiting to defend myself.

• 7:32Speaker 02

  Um, this one's actually a work related one.

• 7:35Speaker 03

  Oh, okay.

• 7:38Speaker 02

  No, so.

• 7:39Speaker 03

  No.

• 7:40Speaker 02

  The report I heard

• 7:43Speaker 02

  from your wife.

• 7:43Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm.

• 7:44Speaker 02

  When you confided in her about something you'd done at work that you haven't told her.

• 7:48Speaker 03

  Gotta stop, gotta stop confiding, Darcy. You know, it's gonna come back. It's gonna be here.

• 7:53Speaker 02

  Often these studios can play up. Well, it's not fair. Sometimes the studios can play up.

• 7:58Speaker 03

  Yep. Goes to the machine.

• 7:59Speaker 02

  You were editing something and there was a big hum coming through what you're editing. And you complained to our lead engineer, Gino here, and said, there's a hum coming from the studio.

• 8:11Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 8:12Speaker 02

  They came and took apart a studio for several days trying to find the hum.

• 8:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 8:18Speaker 02

  And then said they can't find anything.

• 8:20Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 8:20Speaker 02

  You kept editing and then realized a day later.

• 8:25Speaker 03

  That did it. You were humming while you were editing.

• 8:30Speaker 02

  That you had a specific plugin clicked on Pro Tools, which is the sound recording.

• 8:35Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 8:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 8:37Speaker 03

  Also hum.

• 8:41Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 8:43Speaker 02

  You then clicked that button off.

• 8:44Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 8:45Speaker 02

  And you'd been putting your own hum in, in the editing software.

• 8:49Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 8:50Speaker 02

  Having had the, having, having had the engineers.

• 8:52Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 8:53Speaker 02

  Dismantle whole studio. Jane said, I said, oh, did Darcy tell Gino? And he said, I'm not gonna own up to this one.

• 9:03Speaker 02

  Is that fair?

• 9:05Speaker 03

  Uh, yeah, yeah. It's.

• 9:06Speaker 02

  Darcy's looking outside the window.

• 9:08Speaker 03

  I saw maybe Gino over there. I thought the studios were broken and.

• 9:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, but it was.

• 9:12Speaker 03

  There were emails, there were emails sent.

• 9:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, but no, no apology.

• 9:16Speaker 03

  Uh, no, well, we just, we move on, you know?

• 9:21Speaker 03

  Because, because.

• 9:22Speaker 02

  We've already wasted enough time.

• 9:23Speaker 04

  But isn't it worth telling them because they're fixing something? They might still be trying to fix it.

• 9:27Speaker 03

  No, but they're not because for me.

• 9:28Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 9:29Speaker 03

  The, the problem's fixed and I know what the, the solution was. And for the, for the, um, engineers, there's no more emails. It's, it, they, they just did, like, they're like, oh, this guy will heal this up if it's not working anymore.

• 9:42Speaker 02

  Right.

• 9:43Speaker 03

  And it, and it stops. So, and they just ticked that off the list.

• 9:45Speaker 02

  Even days of, days of work from them wasted time.

• 9:49Speaker 03

  Oh, I mean, I'm sure they, while they were pulling apart the studios, they would have found one or two things that they didn't know existed before. So. I would say it's a learning opportunity for everyone. Everyone. It was just more of a service for me, for the studio.

• 10:03Speaker 02

  Are you?

• 10:03Speaker 03

  Oil change.

• 10:04Speaker 02

  Okay, this is great. So you keep looking around and there's no Gino out there.

• 10:08Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 10:09Speaker 02

  Are you hoping that this remains a secret?

• 10:12Speaker 03

  Well, yeah, it's not going to now, but, um.

• 10:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, it definitely, it definitely isn't because Gino is in another studio. He's patched himself in because he's the only guy that knows how to do this. Gino, are you there?

• 10:23Speaker 07

  Hmm.

• 10:25Speaker 02

  That's my hum.

• 10:27Speaker 07

  I can't believe this, Darcy.

• 10:29Speaker 02

  This is unbelievable. This is such a stitch up.

• 10:32Speaker 07

  As Andy would know, our team, if we get a challenge.

• 10:35Speaker 03

  We'll work on it for two years until we find the problem.

• 10:38Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's true.

• 10:38Speaker 03

  So I'm gonna stand my team down right now.

• 10:42Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:42Speaker 03

  Uh, knowing that this was all just illegitimate.

• 10:45Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:46Speaker 03

  How many sleepless nights?

• 10:47Speaker 04

  Sleepless nights for the engineering team trying to figure this out.

• 10:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, well, on top of everything else.

• 10:52Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:53Speaker 03

  Hame, we've, we've just, we've lost a lot of sleep over it. And we're going, what is the issue here? This studio is set up the same way as 10 other ones that are the same and don't have the same issue. So unbelievable, mate.

• 11:04Speaker 04

  I'm sorry, Gino.

• 11:05Speaker 03

  Oh, there it is.

• 11:06Speaker 04

  Oh, there it is.

• 11:06Speaker 03

  Sorry.

• 11:07Speaker 04

  Sorry, Gino.

• 11:08Speaker 03

  Did you, did you, as Darcy's hoping, learn something new about the studio during this exciting project? Not a single thing, Hame.

• 11:18Speaker 04

  Ah.

• 11:19Speaker 03

  They already put it together once, mate. No, they didn't do a dick.

• 11:23Speaker 02

  Well, all I'm hoping here is, like, I only bring this to the attention because we, we, we want the best.

• 11:31Speaker 03

  You're forced to by me.

• 11:32Speaker 02

  Because we want the best from the studios and the engineers do such an amazing job.

• 11:36Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 11:37Speaker 02

  But it's, it's, it's for the Hamish and Andy podcast.

• 11:40Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 11:41Speaker 02

  That we want the best possible quality. So I'm hoping that the fact that you've brought this to the table, everyone's now aware of it. And the engineers, uh, would rightly be quite annoyed with me.

• 11:53Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 11:53Speaker 02

  Hopefully they don't now refuse to help me because I'm just trying to help you guys.

• 11:59Speaker 03

  You're the boy who cried hum.

• 12:03Speaker 04

  Start with the man in the mirror, Daryl.

• 12:06Speaker 02

  Thanks, Gino. Cheers, buddy.

• 12:07Speaker 03

  Thanks, guys.

• 12:08Speaker 04

  Very good investigation.

• 12:15Speaker 02

  The Price is Correct is coming at us. What, three weeks away are we?

• 12:18Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm.

• 12:19Speaker 02

  This is our game show featuring the tip in point.

• 12:21Speaker 03

  I feel.

• 12:22Speaker 02

  I cannot get you to.

• 12:23Speaker 03

  Overprepared.

• 12:23Speaker 02

  Well, I cannot get you for any meetings, you two, like.

• 12:27Speaker 03

  But what else is there to do? It will be all right on the night. We have so much prepared.

• 12:33Speaker 02

  It seems like I just have to run another quickfire logistics with a game show bed under it. That's the only way to get answers out of you where the TV studio keep asking me questions and I've got to get back to.

• 12:44Speaker 03

  Will this be the last meeting?

• 12:45Speaker 02

  It might be.

• 12:46Speaker 03

  Because I do feel, oh, wow.

• 12:47Speaker 02

  Do we have to do a rehearsal? We've done one of them. Yes, we have to do a rehearsal.

• 12:50Speaker 03

  No, we don't.

• 12:51Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 12:52Speaker 03

  Most of it's with live contestants. What's the point of rehearsing?

• 12:55Speaker 02

  Because the cameras need to know where to go. So rehearsals, rehearsals not for you, not for me, not for Jack, although he probably might need some. The, we, we, this is for the cameras to know where people will be to cover it.

• 13:06Speaker 03

  Yeah. And don't we want to know where, like, where the prize is going to be? I would actually like to go, it'd be fun to go before we got a live audience in there. Just check out the pool, to be honest.

• 13:16Speaker 02

  Okay, let's do quickfire logistics.

• 13:19Speaker 03

  Bring your bathers.

• 13:22Speaker 02

  This is the question that came in from me, to me this morning from the TV studio.

• 13:27Speaker 03

  Right.

• 13:29Speaker 02

  Do you definitely want the pool?

• 13:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, what? Yes. The whole thing's built around the pool now. That actually makes me worry that you're not having proper meetings with these people. God, don't even have a go at us about meetings. I don't think you've been clear enough.

• 13:41Speaker 02

  I was just as shocked as you to receive that, to that email. I wrote back, yes, the entire show is fine, but I thought I'd better raise it with you guys as well. But yeah, it did, it alarmed me a little bit that that's what they, it seems like it's hard.

• 13:55Speaker 03

  Like, on the eve of Squid Game, like, the, the head guy in the lion mask going, so do we definitely kill them if they're out? That's the whole game. Get coffee on me now. One winner.

• 14:07Speaker 02

  Or else it's just a regular game show.

• 14:09Speaker 03

  That's ridiculous. They're gonna go back to Korea and squeal.

• 14:11Speaker 02

  I think they've pulled up the floorboards. It's pretty manky in there. There's a lot of cleaning. In fact, if there are any pool cleaning services that would like to sponsor that section of the pool clean.

• 14:20Speaker 03

  Is that why they're asking?

• 14:21Speaker 02

  It comes, it comes at quite a cost.

• 14:23Speaker 03

  This can be a surprise to no one. They were the ones that were bragging about how intact it is.

• 14:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's, it's quite sexy to clean it. I've been given the bill. Yeah, okay.

• 14:34Speaker 03

  We're not asking for two pools, not, not a new pool, just.

• 14:36Speaker 02

  Yeah, okay.

• 14:37Speaker 03

  Well, is it, can we get some photos of how manky it is? I would love to see the, it before and after.

• 14:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, I've seen it. I'll send some through. It's.

• 14:43Speaker 03

  Like black water?

• 14:44Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, it's bad.

• 14:45Speaker 03

  Do you remember the jacuzzi that I had at the place, that house, their share house in Shelley Street? Worse than that?

• 14:50Speaker 02

  Yeah, worse than that.

• 14:51Speaker 03

  Worse than that?

• 14:55Speaker 02

  Worse than that. Anyway, I'm gonna get through more. Uh, I think we need a voiceover person to yell out, come on through.

• 15:00Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 15:00Speaker 02

  Um, who do we want that to be? Do we want to go out to the original guy from The Price is Right, from Australia? Or do, like, do you want to go with?

• 15:08Speaker 03

  I think I went to school with his kids. I think I was in year 12 when Sean Cosgrove's kids were like in year two.

• 15:14Speaker 02

  Do you still have the class list and numbers? You can, you can.

• 15:17Speaker 03

  I guess I could talk to the bursar.

• 15:21Speaker 02

  Do we want Sean? Do we want someone else?

• 15:23Speaker 03

  I think that was a rumor that went through school, like, you know, you'd see him at our, like, school fete.

• 15:27Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 15:28Speaker 03

  And be like, that's the guy from Price is Right.

• 15:29Speaker 02

  What about Broden Kelly? He's got a good voice or like Tony Mann or something.

• 15:33Speaker 03

  Broden would be good.

• 15:34Speaker 02

  Well, okay, so just someone?

• 15:35Speaker 03

  Just someone who can do an authoritative voice. Yes, yes.

• 15:38Speaker 02

  Great. No extra, but it's only, it's only logistics. Don't need any extra flair. It won't flare when they, they say the things, but we don't need jokes or anything. It's just like.

• 15:46Speaker 03

  No, no, you really, it's the easiest job on the day. Come on through. Could we get, could we get an up and coming voice person who'd do it for, just to add it to their, um, you know, profile?

• 15:56Speaker 02

  For free, for free.

• 15:56Speaker 03

  Well, yeah, yeah, this is a great way to cut your teeth in the industry and could help, could help your show real.

• 16:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, better. Let's do that.

• 16:02Speaker 03

  But up and coming doesn't sound like, don't you need years of living to get that deep authoritative voice? At some point, Jack, you have to be knocking on the door of the big leagues and I think we just want one of them.

• 16:12Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 16:13Speaker 03

  Yeah, we don't want to, we don't want an eight-year-old who dreams of.

• 16:16Speaker 02

  Even someone like fresh out of high school, we don't want.

• 16:18Speaker 03

  No, no, no, no. That's not up and coming. That's just beginning.

• 16:22Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 16:22Speaker 03

  Up and coming, yeah, you go, probably about 28 years old. Your pipes, your pipes have ripened enough.

• 16:29Speaker 02

  Yep, 28. Thanks. Great, got it. Um, uh, Jack's role, have you watched any of Man O' Man?

• 16:35Speaker 04

  No, I will. I mean, not since, not since the 90s when we did watch it.

• 16:40Speaker 02

  That's the show that had the pool originally. So what happened was the person that used, the girls used to push the men in the pool.

• 16:45Speaker 04

  It was a dating show where they pushed them in if they didn't want them.

• 16:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, and they kind of flirted with them a little bit.

• 16:51Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 16:51Speaker 02

  Like, I just wanted to know how flirty you're gonna be. What do you?

• 16:55Speaker 04

  I wasn't, I wasn't planning to flirt with any of the contestants because I'm.

• 16:58Speaker 03

  I didn't, I don't, yeah, yeah.

• 17:00Speaker 02

  But it's like cheeky.

• 17:01Speaker 03

  You don't have to, you don't have to kiss them, but.

• 17:04Speaker 02

  But it's like cheeky. It's like, you know, like, ooh, where are you going in? Like, what are you, okay, yeah, I can add a bit of cheekiness.

• 17:10Speaker 03

  I was gonna say, I think it's more of suspense that we're looking for, not sexual tension that you have to build with people. Because we don't have a, we don't have a romance element to our game show and they did.

• 17:20Speaker 02

  Okay, great. I think I'll make that clear if Jack was gonna go watch it to try and mimic it.

• 17:23Speaker 03

  Because I think, I think in the game show, we're gonna go like, okay, there's four people, they've all locked in a price. They don't know who's high or low.

• 17:30Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 17:30Speaker 03

  So Jack, you're walking up and down, I see it as you walking up and down the contestants who are in the tipping point.

• 17:36Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 17:37Speaker 03

  They're at the tipping point on the edge of the pool and you're kind of like faking a few.

• 17:40Speaker 02

  Yes, I love that. Yes, playful. I see that.

• 17:43Speaker 03

  Just a note though, don't overregret it. Just a little bit of that would be good.

• 17:47Speaker 02

  I think I can strike a balance. Okay, we don't, we're gonna build like little plinths, like lecterns, so then to stand behind when they come out.

• 17:53Speaker 03

  Yep, great.

• 17:54Speaker 02

  We don't have enough money to make them electronic to display the people's prices.

• 17:59Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 17:59Speaker 02

  But Jack is responsible for working out who was the closest without going over.

• 18:04Speaker 03

  Why don't you have a waiter's notepad, Jack?

• 18:06Speaker 02

  Yeah, okay.

• 18:07Speaker 03

  So if someone goes 7,822.

• 18:10Speaker 02

  Yeah, like you're taking a run down.

• 18:11Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah. Write that down.

• 18:12Speaker 02

  And then you'll have to do the maths quickly and then go and push.

• 18:15Speaker 03

  Who's closest?

• 18:16Speaker 02

  Three people that aren't the closest in.

• 18:18Speaker 03

  Cool.

• 18:18Speaker 02

  But it's not really maths. It's just like the biggest number that's closest to it without going over.

• 18:22Speaker 03

  Yep. I think we're doing your closest without going over.

• 18:24Speaker 02

  Oh, no, we're already.

• 18:25Speaker 03

  We're out of time. How long was that?

• 18:27Speaker 02

  Five minutes.

• 18:28Speaker 03

  Five minutes, damn it. Quickly do one more.

• 18:30Speaker 02

  Wardrobe.

• 18:31Speaker 03

  Yes, I actually bought us gold sequins suits the other day on Alibaba.

• 18:37Speaker 03

  No, Jack, forgot to tell you. Gold tuxedos.

• 18:40Speaker 02

  Great.

• 18:41Speaker 03

  Yeah, I know.

• 18:41Speaker 02

  And Jack's wearing a suit for the wedding. Because it's for his, for his chance to get, did you get him one?

• 18:45Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah, I got three.

• 18:47Speaker 02

  Oh, right, because he was gonna wear his suit for, waiting for his chance to actually wear it again. But do you want him in the gold?

• 18:51Speaker 03

  I'd wear the gold, Jack.

• 18:53Speaker 02

  Go gold.

• 18:54Speaker 03

  I think, I think there's a good chance we're going in the pool at some stage, so.

• 18:56Speaker 02

  No, that's what I, what I think is good is about us all having a nice outfit is we, we've got incentive not to push the other one in.

• 19:02Speaker 03

  I'll still push you in regardless.

• 19:04Speaker 02

  No, no, but then I would push you in.

• 19:05Speaker 03

  Fine, I'm in, I'm in an Alibaba gold sequin suit.

• 19:15Speaker 03

  Over the journey, we, I feel like a few times we've sort of seen a number plate on the road, haven't we? And we've gone, what is the story going on behind there? One that comes to mind was, I think in our sort of second or third year of radio, I remember way back in the day, we saw, yeah, we saw a number plate that was bonkers.

• 19:33Speaker 02

  Bonkers.

• 19:34Speaker 03

  And we were like, how bonkers is this guy?

• 19:36Speaker 02

  And we put up alongside him and he didn't, he didn't look bonkers at all.

• 19:39Speaker 03

  Like a guy that was thinking about a long day ahead at work.

• 19:42Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 19:42Speaker 03

  And then someone rang up and said, actually, no bonkers, my friend. And we're like, is he bonkers? They're like, can be.

• 19:50Speaker 02

  But he had bought.

• 19:51Speaker 03

  I might be misremembering this.

• 19:52Speaker 02

  He bought, no, you're right. I think from memory, he bought the car that came with the number plate.

• 19:57Speaker 03

  Oh, he bought into bonkers.

• 19:58Speaker 02

  I'm pretty sure. I think that's how it ended up.

• 20:00Speaker 03

  That does ring a bell. And also that's even funnier to me now because the person that got the bonkers personalised number plate, you would think if you bought a personalised number plate, you want to take that with you from car to car. That's who you are.

• 20:11Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 20:12Speaker 03

  But that person's obviously been gone. Look, now that I think about it, I'm not that bonkers.

• 20:16Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 20:17Speaker 03

  You could be bonkers. You could be bonkers now. We're all a little bonkers when we're 19, but like, I'm 28 now, so.

• 20:23Speaker 02

  Yeah. We've all got two kids. I can't have this number plate anymore.

• 20:26Speaker 03

  Yeah. I'm the artist formerly known as, so you're now, you're now bonkers.

• 20:30Speaker 02

  Do you think it raises the sale price or lowers the sale price having bonkers as a number plate?

• 20:35Speaker 03

  I don't think you would mention it.

• 20:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 20:37Speaker 03

  I think you'd just go, look, you know, Mitsubishi Lancer. And then when they came around to look at it and go, oh, bonkers. Is that you? Like, well, it actually comes, yeah, I'm not, I'm not going to change it. It's you.

• 20:51Speaker 03

  You're bonkers.

• 20:53Speaker 02

  You're right, because they're costly.

• 20:54Speaker 03

  I don't know if I'm very bonkers.

• 20:55Speaker 02

  Number plates are costly. Like, that's 300 bucks or something, 350 or something.

• 20:59Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 20:59Speaker 02

  So you'd be keen to say, and.

• 21:03Speaker 03

  Extra value.

• 21:03Speaker 02

  Extra value. But then if they said, I don't really want to be bonkers, you're not going to, yeah.

• 21:09Speaker 03

  Come on. Not with that attitude, you're not going to be. Tell me some of the funny things you do. Oh, there you go. That's pretty bonkers. Well, driving in this way, I don't think we need to launch a full investigation on this one, but I noticed something driving along the road. You guys familiar with the butter brand Lurpak?

• 21:27Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 21:28Speaker 03

  L U R P A K.

• 21:29Speaker 02

  Beck always makes me go and put the other one I get. Put that back and get Lurpak. I don't know why.

• 21:35Speaker 03

  I'm not trying to do a weasel, a jackpost weasel situation here, where I give an inordinate amount of airtime to a spread in hopes that I can save seven or eight dollars by getting a free spread and then taking on two sponsors like Peanut Butter Gate with Jack. So I'm not trying to do that for Lurpak. I'm a mainland guy myself.

• 21:54Speaker 02

  Right.

• 21:55Speaker 03

  I like a mainland spreadable. But again, not trying to weasel. If we were weaseling, we'd do it for bigger items.

• 22:01Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 22:01Speaker 03

  I would say mainland is the tailor made of the butter.

• 22:08Speaker 03

  Premium.

• 22:08Speaker 02

  Yeah, premium.

• 22:09Speaker 03

  The ultimate, what everyone strives to have. Not a compliment for mainland, more of a compliment for tailor made.

• 22:15Speaker 02

  Good golfing brand.

• 22:16Speaker 03

  Personally think is a great golfing brand. So, but there's a, driving past me on the freeway is like a normal, kind of a four wheel drive. I don't know if it was like a, whatever, like a patrol or a Land Cruiser or something with the number plate Lurpak.

• 22:32Speaker 02

  Right. And just what colour car? White?

• 22:36Speaker 03

  No, just a regular, yeah, kind of like what, regular car colour, white or sandy grey or whatever.

• 22:41Speaker 02

  No other detailing on it?

• 22:42Speaker 03

  No decals. So I'm like, is this their promotional vehicle?

• 22:46Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 22:47Speaker 03

  I was like, they're a bigger company than that, aren't they? If you're going to do a promotional vehicle, you'd get more.

• 22:54Speaker 02

  Do the stickers.

• 22:55Speaker 03

  You'd do the car up more. And why just a four wheel drive? It looked like it could potentially go a little bit off. It was a slight, it was an off-road capable vehicle.

• 23:04Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 23:04Speaker 03

  Which isn't the message the butter I would think is trying to send.

• 23:08Speaker 02

  No.

• 23:09Speaker 03

  Aren't they French? Shouldn't they have a Peugeot or something?

• 23:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, exactly. It's not, they're not like, we'll get you, you, your butter anywhere.

• 23:15Speaker 03

  It's not, it's not the butter. Yeah. It's not like, oh, everyone knows this butter keeps for days and it's everyone's favourite camping butter.

• 23:20Speaker 02

  No.

• 23:21Speaker 03

  Like, that didn't feel like, oh, does this person, does this person love the butter so much that their friends got them a Lurpak? Are they trying to get free butter?

• 23:31Speaker 02

  I know that you said you didn't want to do an investigation on it, but I definitely want to find out the answers. So we're going to leave it out to people out there. If you've seen the Lurpak, if you know the Lurpak owner.

• 23:41Speaker 03

  You're not getting it. If you love the butter that much, you're not getting it for yourself.

• 23:46Speaker 02

  No, but maybe it's a removable decal, like a magnet decal.

• 23:51Speaker 03

  It was their number plate.

• 23:52Speaker 02

  I know, but.

• 23:52Speaker 03

  Now, he's saying like they could fancy up the car.

• 23:55Speaker 02

  Was it on a weekend that you saw the car or the weekday?

• 23:57Speaker 03

  This morning.

• 23:58Speaker 02

  Oh, this morning. Okay.

• 23:59Speaker 03

  Driving along the freeway.

• 24:00Speaker 02

  Maybe they're responsible for driving to work with it on. They put their magnetic decals on and then they don't want to drive a sponsor car around.

• 24:06Speaker 03

  I see what you mean. So normally that is the company car.

• 24:09Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 24:09Speaker 03

  And it has extra magnetic decal.

• 24:12Speaker 02

  Yes, that's what I was thinking.

• 24:13Speaker 03

  Again, that is a very, my dad did that for his, for Blake Irrigation.

• 24:17Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 24:18Speaker 03

  Which was a one man show. Like on the side of the ute, he had magnetic signs that said Blake Irrigation. But this is a big butter company. They should have more promotional might than Noel Blake. I'm not even going to go at dad's.

• 24:31Speaker 02

  No.

• 24:31Speaker 03

  We thought it was great when he got the decals. We were like, oh my God, we've made it. Like, that's our name in magnet.

• 24:43Speaker 03

  Quite famous.

• 24:46Speaker 03

  So I don't even go to dad for doing that.

• 24:47Speaker 02

  Excited by as a kid.

• 24:49Speaker 03

  Dad, you'd drive us to school and linger, linger. Let everyone see. Their name is now in magnet form.

• 24:58Speaker 02

  Any leads? There's any leads?

• 25:00Speaker 03

  We're not going to follow this up. So it could easily be a peter out. Yeah, that's, now it's on you.

• 25:04Speaker 02

  But it's on you.

• 25:06Speaker 03

  This is a fun way to do it, isn't it? Much easier. All right, your job. Email us several times. So we definitely get it.

• 25:19Speaker 02

  Hame, we believe there's many benefits to tuning into this podcast and we prefer that the serving be from the start to the end. Start with considered show one an entree and working through to mains and dessert as you go progress through the shows.

• 25:34Speaker 03

  Mate, I mean, I'm just without wanting to derail too much, met a legend the other day who had run, well, and hiked, but he said run from like a marathon a day from Canada to Mexico, down like Aussie guy down through, and he'd listen to, he listened to the pod the whole way. Just had it downloaded. Think he got through it three times.

• 25:59Speaker 02

  What? The, the whole, the whole back?

• 26:00Speaker 03

  End to end. Yeah. He only did the country once, but he did the, he did the whole back catalogue three times.

• 26:06Speaker 02

  Good on him. Well, yes.

• 26:07Speaker 03

  So here's us thinking, oh, wow, look at all these listeners. I think it's just him.

• 26:14Speaker 02

  Oh, look at these people listening to the back catalogue.

• 26:16Speaker 03

  No, I think it is just him over and over and over again.

• 26:18Speaker 02

  Well, one of the main reasons you should listen is to get your advantage on your fellow man in life because power moves keep coming in.

• 26:30Speaker 02

  HameShow.com. If you ever want to contact us or anything, 50% of the emails go to Hame, 50% go to me so we can surprise each other. Billy, this one landed on my side of the fence, Ham. Power move. Buy a spiky succulent as a gift.

• 26:45Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 26:47Speaker 02

  And slide it into a tight gift bag. Hand them the gift in a group setting and ask them to show everyone.

• 26:57Speaker 02

  It's so specific, but obviously trying to.

• 27:00Speaker 03

  It's a good hand spiking.

• 27:00Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 27:08Speaker 03

  This comes in from Panag. And they say, oh, boys, got a bit of power move. When you're making or eating a sauce or another slightly thick liquid, offer a nearby friend to taste something, saying something like, mm, you need to try this. Right? Then when they accept and put their hand out, dispense a small amount on their thumb. They will then have to suck their thumb like a baby. Now, that is a good power move if you can get someone's thumb. Like, that's really the trick.

• 27:35Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 27:36Speaker 03

  Trying to get their hand up, really, that's the toughest part.

• 27:40Speaker 02

  Are they meant to be grabbing the?

• 27:44Speaker 03

  I don't know. Yeah, maybe you go here. Or maybe if you go, you've got the spoon and you go here, take this.

• 27:49Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 27:49Speaker 03

  Then they put their hand out, then you dab it on their thumb.

• 27:53Speaker 02

  I tell you what.

• 27:55Speaker 03

  I like it.

• 27:57Speaker 02

  Zane, power move for you three.

• 28:01Speaker 02

  When speaking to someone and they have their phone in their hand, just say to them, your torch is on, mate. They'll check. I promise you, they'll check.

• 28:15Speaker 03

  It is everyone's biggest fear.

• 28:17Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 28:17Speaker 03

  I think both from a boomer perspective and also a battery perspective, the more you just don't want to be the person with the torch on. This comes in from Sam and he's just gone, look, don't know if this is the right place to submit it. And I don't care either. So a little bit of a power move in his opener. But here's a power move if someone hasn't thought of it. Dog walker coming past. Now I need to bounce this off you guys because you're a dog owner. Yep. Dog walker coming past. Ask if you can pet their dog. Bend down, unclip the dog.

• 28:52Speaker 02

  It's a good one. It's a good one. If you walked off, there would be panic. That is, yeah, it's dangerous.

• 29:00Speaker 03

  Definitely not telling people to untear the dog. You can't deny who has the power in that situation.

• 29:05Speaker 02

  It's definitely a power move. I mean, the only danger for you is if it is a larger attack type dog.

• 29:11Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 29:12Speaker 02

  The tables could turn on you very quickly.

• 29:14Speaker 03

  I suppose you've got your choice. If you're out there all day waiting to do this, you can play a little bit of pass, pass, pass. Here we go.

• 29:20Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 29:21Speaker 03

  Yep. Based on dog.

• 29:22Speaker 02

  Got time for more? This is from Quinn in New Zealand. He goes, my mate got power moved. He's quite short, about five foot six if I had to guess. He was leaving a convenience store as a taller man entered. Rather than hold the door open and standing on the same side of the door, the taller man held the door open and stood on the other side of the door, creating a tunnel under his arms. So my mate was forced to walk under like some kid playing a game with his dad.

• 29:56Speaker 03

  That's a goodie. That's a goodie.

• 30:03Speaker 03

  Hey, I'm down the beach on the weekend and I saw a guy at the supermarket in front of the deli section, or the small goods kind of fridge section, and he just looked devastated, like absolutely crestfallen. And he did a big hug, he's like, and he pulls out his phone. And I'm thinking, I think I knew where he was going with this. The outcome of this phone call was gonna really change his life. The headline for whatever it is is, they don't have them. They don't, yeah. And it's later in the day, probably too. Was it like 5 o'clock, 6:30? 6:30 at night. And there's nowhere else I can get them. Yep. And I know you wanted them. Yep.

• 30:47Speaker 03

  Do you wanna just do tacos? Like, just what do you want? I'm sorry. Well, yes, honey, as I said, I'd love them to have them, but they don't have them, they're out. Hey, bingo. So, I said to myself, because I'm not in a rush. Yep. And I said to myself, I'll, I'll stick around and see how this goes for him. What's the fallout? And so he steadies himself, and I could see from the body language, he's not, he's not confident. And I jotted a few points down from his conversation, just so I could get it quite accurate. I know what it would have been. I know what it is. I know you know what it is, but I, this is a fun game to play, but what is so critical? That it can't be interchanged. And it was small goods, it's not meat. It hasn't been like, I'll go down and get

• 31:27Speaker 03

  a lamb, or I'll go down, it's not, that's why I'm struggling with small goods, because no one's that passionate about, we can't have salami rolls for dinner. Do you know what I mean? But if, if, if, if they've got, hey, the Wilsons are coming over, let's do a leg of lamb. It's pretty late to get a leg of lamb in the oven at 6:30. Or if it was like, let's do whatever, sausages. And he's gone, yeah, great, I'll go and get sausages. And the supermarket is completely out of sausages. Situation I have seen once before, but it was in a small town in New Zealand, and the meat truck hadn't come. What did you substitute that day? Oh mate, that was grim. Yeah. I was actually meant to get mince, but all the meat hadn't come. Yep. And I had to, I feel like, I'm not sure if I told you guys this or not, but I feel

• 32:12Speaker 03

  like I might have told you the story. They had meatballs, Wagyu meatballs, that were right on expiry, that were like 80% off. And it was like one pack. And I was meant to get mince, because we were just doing tacos. Like, I was just trying to do an Old El Paso kid. You can make something meatballs to make it. Yeah, that's what I thought. Can I cut this back into its core principles? Reverse engineer the board. Because Zoe had gone, she'd given me the shopping list, and she'd written, she'd sent me the message, and it was like, premium organic mince. And I get there, and it's bare. And there's, there is, they had gone to the freezer and just got any meat they had out. There was a big sign going, hey, meat truck hasn't come for two weeks. You know, what can you do? They'd gone to the deep freezer, and they had cheese sausages

• 32:57Speaker 03

  in like, plastic, like McCain's kit bags, almost like that kind of thing. Deep freeze cheese sausages. And there was like, a boulder of these frozen together. Nothing in the freezer except that. Like, in the fridge is that, just defrosting, and this one pack of meatballs. Which you know, everybody else has said no to that day. Yeah. We were, we were on a bike riding trip, so we're actually staying in like, a caravan park. We're in a cabin at a caravan park that has one electric cooker. Yeah. And, and, and of course, a frying pan that has a really wonky bottom. So like, one side cooks, one side doesn't. It's rocking around on the while we're drinking. I get the meatballs, cutting up as small as I can. I wonder if this will return to mince. But

• 33:38Speaker 03

  of course, meatballs have, you know, breadcrumbs and other things in them. And it, what it creates is actually just very small, squeaky shiny meatballs, which have been doused in the Old El Paso seasoning. And it wasn't a hit. But it was, it was, but I'm sorry, what I'm saying is, very rare for a supermarket, no sausages. This is a huge supermarket. Like, is it a cheese? Is it a cheese? You're kind of in the realm, but you're not gonna get it. So. Yeah, I might, we might, we might, Andy. Give us the category. I'll go for John. Because I wrote down specifically the conversation. Okay. He goes, oh, hi honey. Yeah, yeah, I'm at the fridge section now, and they don't have the chili tofu you like.

• 34:21Speaker 03

  Oh, that's what it is. It's veggie. That's our only up there. Makes total sense. So the next conversation, very similar to ones we've had before. Yep, yep, they're out of stock. Yep. Yep, I've asked whether they're out the back. Yep, none out the back. Yep, he did look out the back. No, there's none out the back. That is hitting those points. And then he attempted something we've all attempted, where we're, particularly where you're the male sitting there, wanting to please his spouse. I'll tell you what they do have. Bingo. Hey, I tell you what, is what he said. Wow, this would be, this would be awesome. The honey soy looks pretty good. Yeah, I know you like the chili tofu.

• 35:04Speaker 03

  Yeah. That is the preference. As established preference not available. Have you tried the honey soy? Oh, Denise said she didn't like it. Well, we all have different mouths. Did he go, was there a plain one, and could he get chili sauce? He went, right. That'll be my next tactic. Might be worth trying yourself. So obviously. Yeah, yeah. Can we trust Denise? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. So that was, she's obviously. Denise is never wrong. Yeah. Classic soft? God, there's a good tofu selection at this supermarket. Yeah, I know you had your heart set on the chili tofu. Sounds like explaining to the women in my life, when the number one preference,

• 35:48Speaker 03

  we've all acknowledged, we would have loved, and I'm on your team too, I would have loved a perfect outcome. But a perfect outcome isn't on the table anymore. Perhaps we could find a very good one. And then we caught each other's eyes, him and I, we're looking at each other. And he just shook his head to me. So he's just, this isn't going well. And, you know, it felt like the patient wasn't gonna make it, I suppose, from a, from a doctor's perspective of me. And he'd done all he could. As a visiting doctor, Andy, you could put a hand on his shoulder afterwards and go, hey mate, you get called into a regulatory board for this, you did all you could to save this situation. I saw it. And then he threw this out, which I couldn't believe. Yeah, no, it's Coles, but

• 36:33Speaker 03

  it's probably another 25 minutes away. Are you sure they have it? What a husband. Did you wanna check before I? No, yep, all right. I'll put my stuff back and I'll head straight there. So he's. Wow, wow. When you said, I can't believe he did this, the thing that flashed into my head, and remember, this is not what I would do necessarily, but this, but this is an audacious move available to him. Actually, they do have it. I'll buy it now. And, um, boy, I hope this, yeah, I've bought the, I've bought the bags with the holes in them. I hope it doesn't fall out on the way home. You know, I hope I don't have a car accident on the

• 37:16Speaker 03

  way home, or it flies out the window. It's always an option. Or he could say, he could genuinely say. Yeah. He could buy a bunch of things, and then leave one bag behind, and be like, wait, the bloody bag, I must have left it on the roof or something, as I was putting it in the boot. I, I don't think, I think. I'm just saying, it's not the perfect scenario. It's an exciting way to pile more lies onto a bad situation, if you're up for it. All right, quickly before we go, only because I hate sitting, when I've got a surprise organised, I hate sitting on the surprise. We haven't learned enough. I think I know what you're gonna say. I just wanna do a few more prizes for the prizes. We haven't, we haven't learned enough of them, at this stage. So yeah, jump into

• 38:01Speaker 03

  it. Yeah, let's do it. LED face thing. Red light face masks for girls, for girls, for girls. Or boys, if they like to do whatever it is that the LED scary red kind of ice hockey goalie mask does. Well, my, my reply is nothing. Like, I don't think it does anything, but. Girls love them. Beck is always in it. Does she have one? Yeah, she's got, she's got multiple. She's got, apparently there's red light therapy, and then there's another light. This one's a red one. This one's a red one. If she, if that's your favourite therapy of light. You're not gonna say the dog has one?

• 38:41Speaker 03

  No, the dog is petrified of it. So just as a warning, you, I think, there's a lot of reasons why I think the dog likes me more. But one of them would be the fact that once a day, it's terrified at this robot coming at it, still speaking. It thinks Beck's head changes, yeah. Yes. But people love that. They're expensive, though. Yeah, not cheap. I think it was about 1,500 bucks. It was basically. You're giving away the price. Ish, ish, ish. But it's part of a bundle, I imagine. It's gonna be part of a bundle. But this is, this, this, to take our minds back, this was during Golden Day, where I had to buy all the prizes. And I was just sort of. Did you have a panic that you didn't have enough, you know, stereotypically female-led prizes?

• 39:24Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think I'd bought a few things in a row that felt a bit blokey. And so Carly was in there with me, and I was like, Carl, what are you, what would you love if you just had, what would you go to the, right now to buy on the internet? And she was like, I want a red light face light mask. Red light therapy. And so I was like, boom, Googled the best one. It wasn't from an Instagram ad, but I think also too, there was a patch in Golden Day where I kind of beat the algorithm. Oh, yeah. Did you know that, Jack? The ads got exhausted. Like, the guy that was feeding the ads, just like, I can't do it anymore. This lion at the zoo has eaten 10 cows. We thought we had enough for the week. So I think there was a bit too, where I had to kind of go off piste and just start surfing the net. Yeah, great stuff. What else is in there? Here we go.

• 40:13Speaker 03

  Gel blasters.

• 40:15Speaker 04

  What's that?

• 40:15Speaker 03

  That's right. They're gel blasters. They're kind of like Nerf guns, but they fire little gel balls.

• 40:21Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 40:22Speaker 03

  Not a hundred percent sure on the legality outside of Queensland, but I bought them and they shipped.

• 40:29Speaker 04

  So the gel explodes or the gel is a little pellet?

• 40:32Speaker 03

  It's very painless. I've used them before. They're great fun. Plus 7,000 gel balls included with each blaster.

• 40:38Speaker 02

  Well, that really has balanced out the red light therapy.

• 40:41Speaker 03

  Might have been, might have been.

• 40:43Speaker 04

  I'd love to track the, I'd love to track the order of your purchases.

• 40:48Speaker 03

  Right at the end, just me going, okay, red light mask, candles, what else? So gel blasters, if you know, you know, they're great fun. Again, not that, they're like, they're, they're the ones where you, you soak the gel balls kind of for six hours and they turn into kind of, it looks like it's like the size of a BB, but it's like a squishy thing that just kind of like, you can feel them when they hit you, but they're not that painful. They're mostly water. They're mostly water and they biodegrade outside.

• 41:20Speaker 02

  Love it. Would, would you, quick question, would you bundle it with the robotic clay pigeon shooter? Like, could you shoot them?

• 41:27Speaker 03

  No, no, wouldn't be able to, couldn't, couldn't, I don't think you'd struggle to even kind of knock an empty tin can off a fence. It's more just for a bit of, bit of a laugh, but they do look like, you know, they look pretty real. So keep them away from public. Just really one for the backyard or the basement, the basement. It could be fun to set up, you know, Lego men down in the basement, have your own little, you know, no one needs to know what's going on down there. And that's a little bit of fun for you and the boys or you and the girls. If you'd like to get a set of gel blasters.

• 41:57Speaker 04

  Do you want more?

• 42:02Speaker 03

  Nah, what the hell, I'm going to tell you guys, mini jet boat.

• 42:06Speaker 04

  What?

• 42:06Speaker 03

  What? It's a jet boat. But a very small one.

• 42:11Speaker 04

  How many?

• 42:12Speaker 03

  One man, one person.

• 42:14Speaker 04

  What, you're in it?

• 42:15Speaker 03

  You're in it. Think of it just like the car, but it's a jet boat. It's an electric jet boat that is listed as a fun alternative to a jet ski.

• 42:26Speaker 04

  I love it.

• 42:28Speaker 03

  It's sick.

• 42:29Speaker 04

  Yeah, it sounds sick and we've got a pool.

• 42:32Speaker 03

  We've got a pool.

• 42:33Speaker 04

  We might be able to see the boat in the pool.

• 42:35Speaker 03

  I don't know if it comes with a mini trailer. It's kind of looks about the size of a jet ski, but think of a jet boat.

• 42:40Speaker 04

  And it's, and it's. It's just fun enough to start to have someone in it.

• 42:43Speaker 03

  Yeah, it's fully, it's good. This thing is not cheap. It's not as expensive as the car, but it ain't cheap.

• 42:50Speaker 02

  You've got to put that in the showcase, don't you? Is that, I mean, that sounds like the best thing we've got so far.

• 42:55Speaker 03

  I can't give anything away, but it could be in the showcase. I can't give anything away. Yeah, the jet boat. I mean, I might have, I'm, I'm, I'm, I feel like I'm blowing my load here just a bit, just kind of revealing everything, but I wanted to tell you guys about the mini jet boat.

• 43:09Speaker 02

  It's so exciting.

• 43:10Speaker 04

  That's awesome way to finish.

• 43:12Speaker 03

  Electric, mini jet boat. Get it out. I think, I figure, and again, I'm not, I haven't researched this, but I get the sense that you could drive it anywhere a jet ski is.

• 43:24Speaker 03

  That's the sense I'm getting.

• 43:25Speaker 04

  That's the sense. I think you're going to get a lot of those.

• 43:27Speaker 03

  Just check the, check your local laws.

• 43:29Speaker 04

  Yeah, I can't imagine, like, who's going to say, yeah, jet ski's allowed, but mini jet boats aren't.

• 43:34Speaker 03

  That's exactly what I'm thinking, Jacko. I think, you know, make sure, just, just jump, jump on in. Wear a life vest and have the time of your life. Probably more of a river. If you've got some kind of flat water river situation, you're going to have them all in this thing, a dam.

• 43:49Speaker 02

  Perfect.

• 43:49Speaker 03

  Just a pond, any, like if you live near a park that's got a duck pond.

• 43:54Speaker 04

  Hmm.

• 43:55Speaker 02

  Maybe not.

• 43:56Speaker 03

  Not encouraged again, just saying, just saying, wouldn't that be a bit of fun hanging out the side of the jet boat with your gel blasters? No, not in public, not in public.

• 44:06Speaker 04

  If you want to be in the audience and jet with the boat and other things.

• 44:11Speaker 02

  Gee, well done.

• 44:12Speaker 03

  Let me send you a little picture of it.

• 44:13Speaker 02

  Therapy in its wake, didn't it?

• 44:15Speaker 03

  It did.
