Speaker
Love it. um Yeah, so welcome to the Whare, Miles. I know you've kind of been looking forward to this session for a little while. So um is there anything you kind of wanted to kick us off with? any Anything you wanted to bring up first?
00:02:59
Speaker
Yeah, well, I'm um this First things first is I've got a bit of a bone to pick. um And I suppose it's it's a critique in myself for what I thought was off-air chat is always, is not off-air chat, off-air chat is whatever chat.
00:03:19
Speaker
But it's in regards to a recent conversation I shared, which I thought was in confidence, which, you know, again, what an idiot. um and And it wasn't.
00:03:30
Speaker
And it became um what I refer to as the Taupo Rendezvous. This was the the ah add-in bit that we added in from your... So the Taupo Rendezvous was supposed to be a yeah quiet agreement between me and a male or female friend.
Family and Travel Stories
00:03:49
Speaker
um Just a bit of a walk down Emmy Lane. But then when I got back to Australia, um think maybe not long after I landed, There's a text on my phone from my boss um asking about details about the situation. I'm like, what? but well i didn't I didn't fucking tell you that.
00:04:07
Speaker
And then um I had a hot flush, some shivers ran down my spine. Someone walked over my grave and then I opened up Spotify and um and and seen the evidence. He's a listener. Yes, yes.
00:04:23
Speaker
He's also the national manager of ah um Queensland's largest probably owned transport company. Shout out to... No, no. No shout outs? No, we're not going there.
00:04:36
Speaker
Who knows who he is? um But yeah, it was a it was I had the they ah hair on the back of my neck, not on my head, I don't have any, but the hair on the back of my neck, stand up. And yeah, was i all s sweating bullets for a little while until i listened to it and was like, actually, yeah, that's not that bad, but We're actually looking for a sponsor too if he's interested there. From what I remember, yeah, because it was pretty nondescript, there was no names, it was it was pretty vague. It actually worked out not so bad, but i'm the people I was visiting in New Zealand, there was only a couple of people who knew where I was going because they were looking after my kids. No one else knew, but um if they ever feel like downloading the podcast, now they know.
00:05:24
Speaker
It's all good. But i'm to go back on, there was a few questions like how how did I handle the situation and um removing evidence or DNA as you as you put it. yes um There was a slight mummification of the hand and there was a two knuckle dunk.
00:05:46
Speaker
So you'll have to go back and re-listen the podcast to get the full scope of what we're doing. That's a good technique there, Matt. That's a few listeners. Yeah, get them to go back and listen to our episodes. Yeah, in response to that, Mitch and Matt, there was a two-knuckle dunk and a mummification. Okay, we'll go and correlate that information maybe in a future episode as well.
00:06:10
Speaker
But yes, okay, a formal apology then for not clearing that content with you first. But as we do, we just kind chuck whatever we can find. It was pretty good. And it was on CuzzChat, so it's kind of a little bit open season there.
00:06:27
Speaker
don't fucking know if it is. But no, yeah, it's a good there was good trip, Dave. No, it was actually a good trip. It was a bit of a goal of mine since doing life by myself without the woman formerly known as my wife i'm living under my roof.
00:06:47
Speaker
There was a bit of a goal of mine to get myself to a certain position where I can go
Community Tales and Creative Segments
00:06:51
Speaker
and take my boys on these trips and do this and that. And it was it was actually awesome. Maybe we went back in... ah For Darius' 14th birthday. Shout out to Darius. Yeah, we just got whole bunch, shouldn't we? It's really good. And the day that we arrived, I thought, I'm going to go up and take this opportunity. I got little bit of free time to go and see Koroa up the Urupa. Got there and realised was actually Callum's 40th birthday.
00:07:17
Speaker
And then, yeah, we ran into a whole bunch of people. I think Tuikingi turned up. Oh, Johnce was there because we picked Johnce up. um Steve Max turned up, Junior, a couple of the kids, and um Jonas and all his kids and stuff. And Bucket was ah getting out of hand real quick, especially when you look out to the road and it's like four in the afternoon. There's people doing doughies and stuff. Jeez. So he was, what did you say, 14?
00:07:47
Speaker
Oh, no, no, Kellum, he would have been 40. Oh shit, no, Darius's birthday. Darius's 14th birthday. 14th, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then we arrived on the day of Callum's birthday and i thought, we'll just go up see the bros.
00:07:59
Speaker
And um yeah, realised fuck, it was his 40th and yeah, so quite a few people turned up. Well, it was meant to be then, eh? Yeah, yeah, one of the memorable piss-ups. Fucking perfect day, blue sky overlooking the lake and shit and we're talking about how long it's going to be till we'll be up there too permanently.
00:08:16
Speaker
um Yeah, a few few fucking laughs around that. And, um oh, actually, old Johnson adopting the name Fati Corona because he's just old as falling apart and still playing footy. we just call him the Fati Corona of our generation.
00:08:32
Speaker
That's how, let to um yeah, like legacies, they start naming people the same name because they embody the same yeah traits. But, you know, still fucking kicking ass on the field, eh, you know? there They're just talking about all his body parts that were slowly shutting down and we're like, bro, that's where you're heading to.
00:08:50
Speaker
He won't make much of a plumber, I'll say that. did a job for the other day and he was fucking shit scared of going underneath the house because he's like that afraid of spiders.
00:09:01
Speaker
What? There's no spiders in New Zealand. is yes well the dad long leg Yeah, don't know, I think he just doesn't like him.
00:09:12
Speaker
He talks a big game, that fella, but everyone knows that, that's ever met him.
00:09:20
Speaker
Yeah, I think we're planning a trip back to NZ soon for for a kid's birthday again. Yeah. Just to go back, and only like four days, just to quickly in and out.
00:09:31
Speaker
And we'll just go by us and the missus by ourselves, which is kind of what what I am, like you're saying, getting to a position where you can go away with your boys. Yeah. thats a A position where me and the missus can just go away by ourselves and not have to worry about, which we can, but every time I suggest something, she's like, what about the boys?
00:09:51
Speaker
Fuck them That's my response They make their own coin They've got it sweet here They don't need any more encouragement Oh damn
00:10:06
Speaker
Speaking of the boys I'll give them a bit of a plug that They're doing well rollley um um If you're looking for DJ services in Brisbane Call on Quality Control The hip hop duo that have been Taking the Fortitude Valley by storm um yeah they They do like pretty much him and his mate gig every weekend And when he's not When Riley's not gigging there, with a couple of bands that he plays in around the countryside as well. So DJing services.
00:10:34
Speaker
um And yeah. Band, live band performances as well. So if you're in in the Brisbane region, what are you even anywhere in Australia, really, because I've been down to Wollongong.
00:10:46
Speaker
I've had a gig down there. What sort of music are they playing, man? ah So his band, ah but both of them are kind of indie rock, or probably class it as. A little bit of kind of like soft reggae in there as well.
00:11:01
Speaker
what um What's indie rock? What would indie rock be? Incubus, is that indie rock? No, it's short for independent rock, so not like not like your big bands or, you know, it's a small, like, I don't know, who would you class as an indie rock band?
00:11:14
Speaker
um Like in Australia, like Sticky Fingers. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that sort of style. Yeah. I'm not too sure for what bands it would be there in New Zealand.
00:11:25
Speaker
But, yeah, that's, actually, Sticky Fingers a pretty good band. Some pretty good music. The Cat Empire?
00:11:32
Speaker
Not Australian. Random as Australian man, the cat empire.
00:11:38
Speaker
But no, they're going good. um But yeah, they they to do their own stuff now, eh? How old are your kids now? like Darius 14, Nikola 10, Hudson 5. Wow.
00:11:49
Speaker
Yeah. So pumping along there. This is almost like most five years apart. Yeah, yeah, yeah. all um All savages in their own right. But yeah.
00:12:01
Speaker
Yeah, fucking keep you on your toes, but no, they're fucking actually awesome kids, eh? Morale, um, morale, um, morally
Household Humor and Online Shopping Challenges
00:12:09
Speaker
fucking sound, eh? Those kids are good kids. It's the best you can know for, I guess, bro. Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:15
Speaker
ah Sweet. All right, we'll move on to any other topics. Lord, you got anything you want to kind of kick us off with? Oh, actually, before we do, there was a thing on Couch Check that we were kind of like, I don't know how but we get onto most topics on there, but um what we're looking for from the listeners or from maybe ourselves as we get through the podcast is Cousy's wrestling names, what their finishing move would be, and entrance music. I think entrance music is probably a little bit like 50-50 but definitely a finishing move and name I think we can come up with and I think the first one off the rank that we had we'll kick it off and then we'll talk about it later was was it Mitch's one?
00:12:59
Speaker
I think he self nominated didn't he? Because he thinks so thinks about it quite a lot.
00:13:09
Speaker
ah I forget what his one was. So Mitch, remind us, you should have been on the podcast to to say it. But if any of the listeners out there have got some, you know, whether...
00:13:20
Speaker
through your own personal experiences with a said person has got a real succinct wrestling name and and theme music or finishing move where we'd love to hear it. I think we went Mitchell's ah finishing move was Interlock.
00:13:35
Speaker
yeah awesome The Interlock he had installed in his car for such a long time. This is a one. ah was Did somebody nominate Rodder's one as the rim slayer?
00:13:51
Speaker
e Toilet rim? I think Mitch could be the rim slayer as well. That's a double entendre there somewhere. Yeah, so yeah, um i thought I'd drop that in there before we kind of move on because, ah you know, inspiration might come whenever. So there we go. Back to you, Lord.
00:14:12
Speaker
Yeah, I suppose we'll get updated on what's been happening in Pope lately. Kim hasn't paid her tick. it's just Yes, yes.
00:14:24
Speaker
Kim hasn't paid her tick. You have to give us a bit more to go on there, because I mean, we know, but the listeners may not know who Kim is and why she has a tick.
00:14:37
Speaker
Basically, I actually first saw it from from Raw's of Snapchat that he sent to the cars chat the other day, and someone's tagged across one of those intersection signs with the yellow and black arrows.
00:14:50
Speaker
Kim, pay your tick. And red spray paint. It was the biggest intersection sign in Turkey. The main intersection in Turkey. Yeah, Maraitai onto Stay Highway 1 there.
00:15:02
Speaker
But it's also been tagged in numerous other locations around the um around the town. and um Other signages? nobody that Yeah, I still haven't found out who Kim is or how much the tick is.
00:15:17
Speaker
But yeah, don't know whether it's big or whether it's the principle of it, eh? But to all of you TOKE listeners or one of you, if you have any information on Kim and why she hasn't paid her tick, we'd be interested to find out.
00:15:31
Speaker
But, yeah, man, that's actually marketing genius, isn't it? Yeah. Well, it And, like, New Zealand Today or Guy Williams, that's ah that's a good article for him to come and check out, I reckon.
00:15:45
Speaker
Yes, yeah, for sure. The first thing I was going to put in there is, you know, the old, where's my 20 bucks, I'll give you 20 fucking slaps. Yeah. Karen's thing. Yeah, I want that 20 bucks. Actually, talking about that guy, William Singh, the story did on it, and was talking to that dude in the mall and trying to get him to say Karen's debt collection agency, and he come up with something like...
00:16:19
Speaker
agent collection C or something like that? Get Karen's agent collection C onto it. They'll get Kim to pay their ticket. But yeah.
00:16:30
Speaker
I was thinking like, how can we monetize this? Could we um find out how much Kim's ticket is? um pay it and take that debt and become a debt collection agency for Karen yes but you know and just start charging some interest I reckon there's I reckon there's something like we could we could start um the new afterpay you know afterpay but just for ticks
00:16:58
Speaker
Well, that's a big business, though. the as People buy debt all the time just to do exactly what you said. Yep, the Italian mafia. yeah Allegedly. yeah I mean, you could just set up a give a little, um make up a fake Facebook profile with the name Kim someone, send it to you, chuck your bank account up there and profit.
00:17:22
Speaker
Really, people will pay. Go fund me for yeah Kim's tick. yes yeah Somebody needs to go slap a QR code on that sign. Yeah. That's a good idea. That's a real good idea. Free advertising. Yeah.
00:17:39
Speaker
There you go. Fucking. Well, it could be a part of the whole group. could be the whole group, you know. There may not even be a camp. Well, that's right. Yeah.
00:17:51
Speaker
That they could lead to you. You around the place just fucking looking side to side though, eh? Well, that knows a Kim, they'll be like, didn't know Kim was into that. I just thought of Auntie Kim, but she's over here now. I mean, was the word tick originally from like the old ticks going next to your name on the old tinny list?
Car Projects and Personal Growth
00:18:13
Speaker
Yeah, have you paid your tick? You gotta pay for that tick? Yeah, tick it up. That's a good idea.
00:18:20
Speaker
Oh no, we just used to grow it. Allegedly. Allegedly.
00:18:27
Speaker
I had some, mom well, I was asking the question to the cuzis, are you running a dishwasher? Are you two running dishwashers at home? Yes. Yes. I have extension to this, but yeah.
00:18:38
Speaker
Yeah. i think um the dishwasher has become a necessity these days. Have you, have you ever heard the concept? Go ahead. Go ahead. kate Well, I haven't got one.
00:18:50
Speaker
I haven't got a dishwasher. It's little bit tricky to actually fit one into the kitchen. so um But I come up with an idea the other day. you know like One of the worst parts is kind of drying the dishes.
00:19:01
Speaker
That's one of the best things that the old dishwasher does for you, right? Yeah.
00:19:07
Speaker
What if you just, you know, you cooked your roast, your oven's cooling down around 90-ish, smack the dishes in there. Dry them out.
00:19:17
Speaker
you'd have to You'd have to get into the washing and stuff quite quickly, though. Yeah, straight away, pretty much. Or just turn it down to the warm, keep warm function.
00:19:29
Speaker
Yeah, you'll bang them in the warmer drawer, even. mean, you've even got those racks. You could just slide the the plates in between doing the racks. The whole rack. Or they just slide the whole freaking dish rack in there, you know?
00:19:44
Speaker
it's your myself to say aird dry Air dryers are actually a lot better Do they? Like your dirty details contaminating Contaminating your nice clean dishes You don't want to contaminate it Contaminating is even worse Um thetaations way is the contamination du this is I'm to take it to the next level, because and I reckon that most houses should have two dishwashers.
00:20:10
Speaker
Because that way, when you're filling one, um you're you're putting your dirty dishes in one, and then running that, and then while that's clean, you're taking all your clean dishes out as you need them,
00:20:25
Speaker
And then b you've got a second dishwasher, so when those ones are dirty, you put them in the empty dishwasher. So the dishwa the plates never leave the dishwasher. Yeah, or the cupboard space. your cupboard space.
00:20:37
Speaker
Well, that's how you sort of run the double dish drawer. That's how we run those at at a work. And we've just got a sticker that says for dirty and for clean, and they just do the rotation constantly. Oh, so this a double drawer dishwasher.
00:20:50
Speaker
Yeah, you can get double drawers.
00:20:53
Speaker
Independently wash and dry. yeah Okay, yeah well that's the concept so yeah That's the one you want if you want that you up Yeah, I reckon that's the way to go away ah Big family though You probably need two dishwashers It'll be a bit pricey I don't think people like Kim Are going to be able to afford a a double A double drawer dishwasher She pays that tick mate Maybe that's what the tick was for Yeah, they're going to have no problems running the oven, though.
00:21:20
Speaker
I mean, the old element's going to be on most of the day. That's right. That's right. I've actually seen a couple of boys come to work, eh? They bring their little bag with their lunch and their cutlery and burnt knives. Oh. Every time you're like, you have to dig into your lunch bag to get some utensils out. You're sterilising some knives, eh, man?
00:21:42
Speaker
Bone handles. yeah ah Those are the best, eh? Or I've even seen the old um the the hose handle. Yeah. yeah yeah Or just like heaps of electrical tape. Yeah.
00:21:56
Speaker
Or just feel the burn. Left on for a whole hour. Yeah. While you just stand around the stove and zone out.
00:22:06
Speaker
Yeah, what are you going to be more cost effective? Sort of running that um element or the old gas fucking gas lighter? The fondue lighter.
00:22:18
Speaker
Fondue lighter? Oh, the one with the flattened out spoon on top of it. Oh, yep, yep, yep. You get those from Reptile and Shade.
00:22:28
Speaker
Yeah. remember Remember Jonas used to run those in the back of the rugby van? Just blow it out the window and put pretend like no one can tell, but it just bombs out the whole bus.
00:22:41
Speaker
and I haven't done the um the equations on that for many, many years. It's like running a gas burner as opposed to power. As opposed to running the oven. like I mean, these are the sort of things that might, you know, if Kim had paid more attention, she probably could have paid that. Yeah, yeah. Could taken a deep dive into the admin of life, a Yep.
00:23:02
Speaker
You could probably just steal some something like that. You just, you know, if you're going to Supercheap, or do they even um sell those at Officeworks? You could steal those from Officeworks?
00:23:12
Speaker
What's that? I don't think they have office works in New Zealand, do they? Whitcools! Whitcools! was referring to ah to an old topic there. Somebody robbing a stationary joint.
00:23:23
Speaker
Or an attempt. Paperplot. Paperplot. They're gone now. Are they? jeez. I wonder if that was a catalyst, eh? It was a needle in the haste. That's the broken virus. That there was our one margin we need to mate in that store. and Caused trauma and our bottom line to crumble. i don't know why they got it back.
00:23:48
Speaker
Unless those school kids took it. pocketed stuff Actually, on the topic of closing stores, I hear all the EB Games stores are closing in New Zealand. I wouldn't be surprised.
00:24:01
Speaker
I couldn't tell you where they would... Taupo's got at EB Games, haven't they? Yeah, they have. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they have. Oh, yeah, they did, yeah, down the old frickin' by the cinemas and that, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:24:14
Speaker
Um, you know, they never, I don't know, buy games are not online now, don't you? That's why, bro, that's why. Hmm. Even the ones here, I don't think they'll be far behind actually. The majority what they sell is controllers and people and shit. Yeah, accessories. The physical accessories and all those fucking pop whatever those things are. They waste the money.
Family Life and Listener Engagement
00:24:37
Speaker
yeah those's all Those things my kids always point out. And I just say, do you want spaghetti bolognese this week? or fucking we're We're not going to get that anime shit that you don't even watch anyway.
00:24:50
Speaker
good But yeah, it's it's been probably a lot of those... um yeah Businesses have been going under left and right these days. Especially the old brick and mortar stores, eh? People just getting everything online now.
00:25:04
Speaker
yeah but Do you you guys order online and a lot of stuff? Oh, everything. i I very rarely go and shop, eh? I just don't have time for it, man. If I can buy local, I kind of will.
00:25:16
Speaker
But... um I mean, you can't get anything. Look, in New Zealand a lot of the time now, like I bought some car parts the other day. had to order it in from Australia. It's like $1,300. Fucking cunts charge me $380 duty tax on the way in.
00:25:37
Speaker
Fuck, yeah. That's fucking 30%. Damn. Tariffs, eh? Yep. Tariffs. Tariffs. Hmm. Cunts are fucking... get them in New Zealand so why am I fucking putting them to you know yeah oh we had free trip for them if it's small enough ah you can get somebody to bring it over but I had old auntie Maggie's husband Morris good cunt proper good cunt hitting me up to oh can you bring some parts back and you wanted to send them four coilovers to my house and put a whole set of coilovers in my bag 60 kilos wow
00:26:16
Speaker
Yeah, that's probably, yeah, paying the day extra weight would be just as much as my lord paid. Yeah, that ain't happening, I'm bringing three kids and 60 kilos of coilovers back. That's bit of an unreasonable quest, isn't it? It's not like, hey, yeah take things back, a pair of shorts back for me.
00:26:36
Speaker
They're just 60 kilos and they look like coilovers, but they're my shorts. What were the coilovers for? Falcon? I think it might have been for Ataro's Mazda Mazda 3 something I think it was think Mason's got one of those too doesn't he?
00:26:57
Speaker
Yeah I think so might Yeah something like that can't remember now It was that and Chad of a fuel pump or some shit Oh right But yeah that's hard to get parts back there Anything man
00:27:13
Speaker
anything man Yep. So as like me the parts you got were for your wagon tour, is that coming along? or Because think you were doing you do a few updates on Kutshad there for while on different things you were kind of doing.
00:27:29
Speaker
Yeah, I've just, I've welded my exhaust up, I've been teaching myself to pig weld, so... Sort of getting a little bit better day by day on that. But yeah, just working through it, bro.
00:27:41
Speaker
New intake, new turbo. New front mount, intercooler. don't know, hoping to go for a few more horsepowers. what's the what's the What's the final goal for that? Is it going to be a um strictly off-the-street use, or is it going to be a bit of both?
00:27:59
Speaker
Streetcar, track car. street car tre car Yeah. um Yeah, like a drive to the track fucking... lamb it out and drive home bro. My sort of goal for it is reliable reliable and street horse pouched high street horsepower so 400-ish just below 400 probably and just something that would be fun to drive on the track so I kind of want to modernise the performance of it, you know make it perform like a more modern turbo car.
00:28:31
Speaker
Yeah, like less lag.
00:28:35
Speaker
Yeah. So hopefully. Yeah, nice. i think um with YouTube and things these days, a lot of people think are if it's not a thousand horsepower, why are we talking about it? But think 400 and that is like, especially demanding that from a two liter engine. You know, it's, it's quite a feat.
00:28:56
Speaker
Yeah. Especially if you're sort of building it yourself, but yeah, on the street, like there's absolutely no need for any more power than that. You know, we're not, I was going to say, yeah, it depends on where you' what you're using it for. Going to KFC.
00:29:10
Speaker
even Even like if you're running out of the track, it's going to feel very like a very fast car, you know? Yeah. um Unless you're running actual semi-slip tyres. Yeah. Yeah, you lose performance in a lot of places that people don't realise. They just think more numbers is better. The higher the number goes, the better. Yeah.
00:29:29
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. ah And you could have a thousand horsepower, but it'd only be fucking a really high RPM and stuff like that. a So
00:29:40
Speaker
I've probably put a slightly smaller turbo on it and just ah more modern. So less lag all that.
00:29:52
Speaker
But the goal is to do everything, wire it up and then street tune it myself and then take it to the dyno.
00:30:01
Speaker
So, yeah, it's not going to be able to handle the block in that way and handle more than 400 horse. No, it's 100 horsepowers. That's going to be plenty enough. Yeah. Yeah, especially for a little 2-liter. So, yeah.
00:30:14
Speaker
No, it's been fun, though. It's like um I'm not in a hurry. So that's kind of just something I could chip away out of the work rather than sitting out on the couch, of you know, and just vlogging out watching TV.
00:30:28
Speaker
um yeah, so it's always good to see something next to nothing about cars and engines and all that sort stuff, but appreciate the ah people who do and and yeah i definitely get that sense that the passion's there for sure ah that that for me is Yeah, I get kick out of people getting a kick out of things. kids It's like, yeah, man, fucking A. For me, to like I like the learning along the way with it, you know, like you fucking spend just as much hours researching shit up as you do doing stuff, you know, like you'd know miles working in the trade.
00:31:09
Speaker
um There's a lot of that, isn't there? Yeah, you can you can take a learning from absolutely fucking anything. And if you if you don't leave every day without some sort of learning, you've missed an opportunity, I reckon.
00:31:22
Speaker
Yep. Like even when there's people that piss me off at work or some shit and I end up losing my shit at them, you know, like I can go away and just say, well, that was fucking crap, but then I can always like look into that and I can take some learnings from it. Yeah, reflecting is ah definitely a skill, eh?
00:31:36
Speaker
I reckon. I find that with a lot of young people, that's something they really do lack is just being able to reflect on their actions and, you know. But i guess that's a bit part of growing up, I guess. Yeah, that's right, eh?
00:31:48
Speaker
takes the model It takes a while to be able to actually look in the mirror, doesn't it? Yeah, yeah. Especially when you look like me. It must be hard. I just wrote all my goals on the mirror so I can't see myself.
00:32:04
Speaker
I mean, a classic um sort thing I was thinking the other day is you you always um you always need it empty to empty the ketchup right after you mow over the dog shit, you know? Yeah.
00:32:16
Speaker
What does that fucking mean? Say that in a Confucius voice. Confucius
Sports Highlights and Humorous Reflections
00:32:22
Speaker
saying. Puss empty. a couple interpretation there you know to say they don't know like Confucius confuciia say yeah yeah plus empty when run over dog shit awesome
00:32:39
Speaker
they thought nearly right ah yeah ah It's better to wake up needing a piss than wake up needing a drink. need hydration.
00:32:53
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. As in too hydrated. Yeah, well, you're better to be too hydrated that yeah than not enough. Oh, that's a good one. but you're You're better off to have enough you' better have to have enough pipe than be caught a couple of inches short as well, you know? Yeah.
00:33:10
Speaker
Yeah. See, always say stuff like flags fly harder in the wind, you know, when I'm having a fucking tough day, always think about that. but i like And that reminds me of like, well, that's why I'm here.
00:33:21
Speaker
That's why I'm chosen to take on this task because I can do it. yeah But then I still don't understand why you got an empty catra and you're putting dog means that when shit hits the fan...
00:33:40
Speaker
You know? every All the shit hits the fan. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. Tainted. Once you mow over the dog shit, that's when that' right when you're going to need to empty the fucking ketchup.
00:33:54
Speaker
Yeah. but I'd probably try and run over it with a full ketchup because then it sort of gets mixed in there and then you're not scraping it out. But... paul realistically a half patch would be the perfect time to run over the dog shit because then he'll be laying up in all that grass you know if it's right when you're emptying it it's going to be on the top of the pile yeah yeah okay game the thing most
00:34:23
Speaker
Yeah, that's right. I think I got the sack from mowing lawns for one of my cuddles because i was just like, I don't get paid to do this shit. I don't get paid $7 an hour to do this shit. And so I just stopped mowing over the shit and he just sacked me.
00:34:37
Speaker
I was like, oh, righto. Let's have to mow over dog shit. Doesn't Rotos do so every fucking, every lawn had dog shit on the day?
00:34:51
Speaker
Because of the, yeah, because of the but rados Yeah, because it's just It's a fucking shit hole thought was going to say like Is it the dog capital of New Zealand? Nah, it smells like it too I don't know it is about rotos I fucking hate rotos And you know, know that's not the right the right way to be thinking But fuck, I just hate rotos hate the road to get there It's a piece of shit yeah From Toke Well, the the one from Stay Highway 1 to the Rotos.
00:35:27
Speaker
So you you drive on it, either whether you come from Taupe or... Oh, Yeah, actually, and even like coming from Rotuiti in that day, it's just a bit of a cunt. Yep.
00:35:39
Speaker
See? Just every time I go there, like, it's just... It stinks. It's always fucking wet. There's so much homeless people there. And besides the Russell whanau, that's the only reason I need to go there, you know, is just to go see there Yeah, every town's starting to get a lot of homeless people now.
00:36:01
Speaker
Fuck yeah. Yeah, would be tough, hey, out there, especially in New Zealand, fuck. Yeah, and they ask you for change, and then you say no, and they point out an ATM. You're like, fuck it, I can't. Yeah, even I see some in Taupo. was like, hey. Yeah.
00:36:13
Speaker
yeah Well, no shit, I said it. Well, this is an orca, and I think I told you as the the guy had a, he actually had an F-Post machine.
00:36:24
Speaker
but You're not homeless. You're an entrepreneur. I think you're not. Well, because there was a guy that looked like he was coming in to too. Work in the corner, eh? Yeah, it was like on the phone, like, when are you going to be here? Yeah.
00:36:47
Speaker
would you Why would you need a break from being homeless? He just goes around the corner, has a smoker, picks the smoke up off the ground, and has it, comes back in five. I've found all these smokes, but I want to smoke them. But I've got to put them all in together to make one smoke.
00:37:05
Speaker
Puts a sign out, eh? in five. Oh, fuck God. I shouldn't laugh, Mike. Yeah, it's alright. It's fine. I mean, if you're homeless, you kind of really, yeah, somewhere on the line, a major failure has set you back.
00:37:23
Speaker
Yeah, that's not their fault though. Don't worry about it. Oh, that'll be right. Like that.
00:37:33
Speaker
Dangerous, alright. And sorry to any Rotorua listeners out there who's just bagged off your city or your town. Look, I've had a pretty bad rap from a German tourist lately about how much things.
00:37:48
Speaker
Oh, that just seems someone who's uneducated. That's about Rich coming from a German guy. but and Weren't they just pumping pollutants that were made out of humans like back in the 1940s? Like, whoa. Oh, it smells a bit gassy here. Get a grip, mate.
00:38:09
Speaker
Get a grip. These are not fucking, yeah, Asian orange. Yeah, oh I'm changing my stance on rotos. I'm coming into bat. If I can show these German terrorists.
00:38:23
Speaker
Roto's back in the good books. That's the smell of life. Yeah, yeah.
00:38:33
Speaker
right, let's get this podcast back on track.
00:38:37
Speaker
Miles, I have to defer to you again. You've got a laundry list of stuff here that you really can't make sense of the head or the tail of, so pick up. Yeah, just a bit of fucking shout out. I see old Shia Perry. She's flown into...
00:38:51
Speaker
The Gold Coast last week, and she's um ah she's got a bit of a start with Wynnum, I think. I went down and watched her play her first trial match against Tweed yesterday.
00:39:05
Speaker
was good watch. She was fucking hot, she was fucking humid, and I could see Shia was feeling it, but there was so many others were. oh it was It was ridiculous. I was about to put a complaint in.
00:39:16
Speaker
But yeah, you're just you're just watching it, and you're just drenched, away But um, yeah, so yeah, be good on you Shia for fucking stepping out comfort zone and coming over here and having a crack.
00:39:28
Speaker
Yeah, shout out to Shia there. So yeah, next few weeks I think, I think this weekend coming up she's playing in Wyndham so we'll go and watch that one as well. Ah sweet. you But you did you watch um the old Jack Paul Anthony Joshua showdown the other week?
00:39:44
Speaker
Ah, I did watch that, yep. I've seen the end of it, pretty much. Yeah, well, that was the important part. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I watched kind of like a highlights package of it, yeah of all the rounds, um but just the main bits.
00:39:59
Speaker
I always get a bit, you know, i get a bit in two minds because Jake Paul was doing a lot of dodging and and all this sort of shit, and And people say, you know, oh, that's just a shit fight to watch. But it's all a tactic, you know, and and that's something he would have put together before. And it gets him to the end of the rounds and, you know. Keeps him in the game. as essential Yeah, it opens up some opportunities and stuff.
00:40:25
Speaker
But then, on the other hand, um you know, I like watching Nick and Nate Beers in the UFC and they say, well, we're here to fight. Stop fucking running away, you know. If you run away from fights, you've lost. But what's your What's your thoughts on there on the Joshua and um Jake Paul scrap there, Lord? um Yeah, I mean, like, if you go and look at it as ah as a scrap, there was really no other tactic for him.
00:40:53
Speaker
Joshua was, fuck, he must have been giving 20 kilo easy
Mechanical Projects and Light-hearted Banter
00:41:01
Speaker
Joshua. And he's an actual heavyweight boxer.
00:41:06
Speaker
like, ah was a champion, you know, it was a UK champion. Was a gold medalist as well? Yeah, fuck, he was up there. He's definitely ah a great fighter. He fucking knocked the fuck out of France, folded France and Gano like a lawn chair in less time.
00:41:23
Speaker
Yeah, that's right. So, i don't know, like, Jake Paul, like, if you're looking at it, if you're We're looking at it as if it is an actual fight and he's not obviously, you know, they're not doing it as an exhibition and they're just putting on a bit of a show, which is possibly also what's happened.
00:41:45
Speaker
um Did pretty well. And it's probably about what you'd expect. um And good on him for getting in there, you know, if that's the case, because like that's, you know, that's a, that's pretty hard.
00:42:02
Speaker
Yeah, you're putting yourself out there to go up against, like you said, like probably one of the best boxers in the world, if not the best at the moment.
00:42:13
Speaker
um And a longer reach and bigger. yeah Yeah, you're getting your fucking head punched in there no matter what the result. and But though I think there was only yeah one result. Well, that's it. The fact that went on as long as it did was surprising. you know I think Joshua only went to the second or third round of Ngannou.
00:42:32
Speaker
Yeah right He had him on skates Yeah and then you know we know that Jake Paul he got nothing on Ngannou Have you seen that knockout Matty I don't think so i may have while like i watch I see all the stuff you know highlight package stuff but yeah I don't follow it enough to kind of remember who's who Have you looked that up on YouTube Who was it Joshua you and Ngannou Anthony
00:43:06
Speaker
Yeah. mean, you know, Jake Paul's not exactly a terrible boxer. There was no way he was, yeah he because he didn't want to stand in the pocket at all, as you wouldn't. Like, he was just overextending the whole time, and there's no way his punches were going to do any damage on Joshua because of that fact. You know, he was just touching him.
00:43:27
Speaker
Whereas Joshua's punters, you could fucking tell how hard they were. Did he get a first ah a first round knockout or something? No, no, that was no just one of the knockdowns. One of the knockdowns. Yeah, right. That was a pretty fucking hard straight punch, that was.
00:43:41
Speaker
He's one of the biggest men out there. And then he comes back in, then he gets saved by the bell, comes back in and fucking, oh no, he got a standing eight count, then comes back in and what bell? And Garno.
00:43:55
Speaker
Yes, Ngani's the big guy. the Yeah, the big, big one. Fuck, he's, he's. But they both like, at least. Ngani was a UFC heavyweight champion.
00:44:10
Speaker
And he like, went to fucking 10 rounds of Tyson Fury. Well, he went to a decision, didn't he? Yeah I think so and oum But then I seen how Anthony Joshua was Had the car accident the other day And reckons he's pulled the pin on Boxing for good Oh true Oh yeah well that was loose man Yeah I shouldn't even see much of that crash Was it filmed was it Oh, like, there were whole lot of people filming after it happened, but they were over in Nigeria, eh?
00:44:40
Speaker
Yeah. And all packed into big SUV, and they must been overtaking a few cunts. Oh, just smashed into the, don't know whether they back to the back of something, they had a head on. But he was basically, him and one other fellow were the only one that survived, eh? Him and the driver? Wow.
00:44:56
Speaker
Three, two or three, did he? fuck yeah like the couple was destroyed yeah but they're over there they're basically gone over there to go spend up all that jake paul money by the looks of it because they're on it they're all having a great old time and then boom was one of them driving i'm not sure or did they have someone like a driver i don't know whether they had a driver or yeah whether it was just stem yeah I'm pretty sure it was. I don't think it would have been a professional driver that would have been doing that because apparently they were boosting it. That's what thinking, yeah. Yeah. Jeez, that dude folded, didn't he?
00:45:35
Speaker
I was watching the rest of that fight as you're as you're talking. Yeah. He was gone before he hit the ground. Yep. Yeah, you got bent over, eh? Yeah, his leg fucking gave way. Yeah, the launcher.
00:45:47
Speaker
Yeah, the launcher, yeah. Folded like a launcher, all right. Shit.
00:45:53
Speaker
That's pretty crazy. Yeah.
00:45:57
Speaker
yeah i had a little bit of that accident the other day as well with the yeah my dog taking me up on the mountain bike track. Oh, man. I showed my kids that, eh? And they just wanted to watch that over and over again, eh? Fucking hell.
00:46:13
Speaker
But yeah, the dog cutting the corner, then coming back across, eh? And just fucking wiping that front wheel out. Yeah, she just forced me off into the dirt.
00:46:23
Speaker
I slowed the video down and she like clearly looks, slows on there, and then still jumps right in front of me. Bitch.
00:46:34
Speaker
what's ah what's You slow it down and then you can see there's like a big tyre mark her in her back as well. oh Jesus. what's ah Any injuries sustained from both parties?
00:46:47
Speaker
Nah, well, I can't really speak for her. She didn't really complain too much, but she got out just in time because I had the video there.
00:46:57
Speaker
ah she didn't just keep pumping with the back legs, I would have ran her front leg over because that had like splayed out. Oh, yeah, they were broken.
00:47:10
Speaker
Yeah, right. The road is my front wheel. But yeah. Kind reminds me that time when I was doubling Josh on the handlebars and he went off on from the front and then I ran him over.
00:47:26
Speaker
Well, he jumped, I should say. he I didn't push him, he jumped. Pushed. Anyway. Papa all right, though? dont Yeah, no.
00:47:37
Speaker
No, no. Back out there. So he did. There was some talk the other week, ah or the other last podcast of the little brinket type things in the toilet. I was saying I actually do remember that. That that thing that was in the toilet there is something that I just remembered my whole life too because I don't know what it was about it.
00:47:59
Speaker
What was this? Oh, so he's referring to the um things that the aunties used to have in their toilets and shit like that. Like the stand closer things maybe shorter than you think. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The little trinkets. Yeah, I'm like, like, your mum. Yeah, yeah. Even you used to have, like, Reader's Digest and shit. Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:48:20
Speaker
Yeah, that's why I have such a great vocabulary. It's from the registered address in the toilet. Because that was a whole section of like, expand your vocabulary. Yeah, sure.
00:48:32
Speaker
Well, they should bring those back into toilets, you know, did you get people off the phone. Yeah, the just, yeah, it's not a bad idea. them so Get some general trivia in the air or some little, yeah, maybe put your little,
00:48:50
Speaker
and when When you run over dog shit, time
Podcast Conclusion and Future Teasers
00:48:52
Speaker
to empty the catcher. A little quote yeah on something on ah on something as well.
00:48:59
Speaker
I'll put that on a freaking lawnmower. Ceramic. You know, clay. Ceramic. Yeah, ceramic. That could be a business. People will buy that for sure. Yeah.
00:49:12
Speaker
good 3D printer. yeah Is this the start of our merch store? Don't t-shirts. Don't do mugs. Let's do toilet trinkets.
00:49:25
Speaker
Can't pay your ticket. Oh. Because you don't see those anymore, do you? I've never really...
00:49:34
Speaker
this like a little bit of the eye cause you don't see those anymore do i' never really I wouldn't know where. Who would, I mean, the gift stores, maybe? They're the only ones, you know, they like the tobacco slash gift stores. Oh, I know, here, anyway. it's but Like your paper pluses and stuff? Yeah, if they were still around, maybe. Yeah.
00:49:53
Speaker
Yeah, I think I was in Chinchilla while ago, and I went into, oh, a news agency. I was trying to think, what the fucking shop was it? News agency, and they had fucking lots of shit like that, eh? Oh, yeah, they did a lot of, yeah, that sort of stuff. ridiculously small cup set, there's no use in them.
00:50:08
Speaker
they have some weird shit in there too, eh? Which is perfect for, you know, place to sell toilet trinkets. Do you think about it? Yeah. Oh, fucking Hudson, man. My boy, he just...
00:50:23
Speaker
um He must just have such a short attention span, he has to take things in the toilet with him. But, like... And he has this thing that whenever he takes clothes off, he has to throw it, no matter what. He's five, he's not fucking a baby.
00:50:37
Speaker
But um we have three toilets in my house and one of them I don't really use a lot. And then i went in there the other day, i was like, fuck, I better clean that bathroom. And I opened the door and there's four sets of clothes behind the toilet door.
00:50:49
Speaker
So many toys and shit just in there. And then I seen he's got everybody's toothbrushes lined up on the window sill right beside the toilet. And I'm just like, what? Why are you taking a shit and playing with toothbrushes? until You can't be fucking doing that. Why not? Time to replace the toothbrush, bro. That's all I'd be doing. I'm taking any chances there. I think you're probably cleaning it. like Get those stains off.
00:51:19
Speaker
Yeah, well, they've got these Formula 1 cars and they're roll and one of the wheels come off and they were rolling it in and out of the bath and was doing all these tricks and shit. And went in there the other day and Nikora, who's 10, by the way, is fishing a um wheel out of the toilet.
00:51:34
Speaker
Rinses it off, throws it back in the bath.
00:51:38
Speaker
Just like you fucking dickheads. Ah, that's boys though, eh? Yeah, yeah. Typical boy behaviour, eh? Yeah. youre what ah They're good entertainment, that's for sure. 100%, bro. 100%. It's the gift that keeps on going there.
00:51:53
Speaker
Sure. e Anything else you want to kind of touch on, Lord, before we hit the the back straight?
00:52:03
Speaker
Oh, yeah. By the back straight, are we talking about poor form? You can go there if you want. Yeah, sure. i just had a quick one. of The classic apprentice And we're running some pipe work, and I see him looking down there, holding his level to try and check whether the pipe work was straight to the wall.
00:52:30
Speaker
um Yeah, well, Miles might know what I'm sort of talking about here. What, with pipe work? Yeah, if I can know. Yeah.
00:52:40
Speaker
But he's not trying to he's not trying to check the pipes to see if they're level, he's trying to check them to see if they're straight but with the level look on its side, you know what I mean? Is he checking if they're parallel with a wall by using the level? Yeah, or he's just checking if they're both parallel with each other by using the level.
00:53:05
Speaker
I can't really wrap my hair on that. I'm having a hard time visualising that because it doesn't make you sensible.
00:53:12
Speaker
So he's... If you're a builder or something, you you definitely know what I'm talking about. I know there's a disconnect there somewhere. I'm just having a hard time. Are the pipes running along the wall? Are they on the ground? or So the pipes are out on the ground.
00:53:27
Speaker
They're doing a 90 degree bend. And he's trying to check whether that 90 degree bend on the... on the other plane is straight as opposed to checking if it's level
00:53:43
Speaker
so the pipe has to be well you've got a pipe coming up and then doing a 90 degree bend and he's testing to see if he's trying to check for level but he's really but he needs to check to see if it's straight like imagine a pipe coming off the wall and you're trying to check if it's even if it's running perpendicular from the wall and then trying to check if it's at 90 degrees by using the level.
00:54:08
Speaker
yeah kind like no Yeah, you need something that actually shows you the angle of that 90 degrees, don't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But he was trying to check that with the level. Just with the level. Oh, yes.
00:54:20
Speaker
But she had 90 degrees, yeah, she's level. Yeah.
00:54:25
Speaker
40 degrees she's still level so it's completely wrong tool for the application he's trying to use it for by the sounds of it yeah i had to get yeah had to get from the other bro and i'd go check this out check this out that's what think what was struggling with was like what you trying to measure the angle but the level Yeah, yeah. There it is. Yeah, did Would have had better luck with a compass, you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, 100%.
00:54:52
Speaker
the What was the outcome of that? Did he see the error of his ways? was like, how straight is it, bro?
00:55:03
Speaker
And then he picked up what he was up to. Was that apprentice Mason Doig? and was Was he currently related to me? I wasn't in. No, he's been let go.
00:55:18
Speaker
He was only on work experience here. Yeah. Good time, not a short time. Oh, good time, not a long time. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to have to...
00:55:34
Speaker
I think you have to kind of do stuff have poor form come your way. That's probably where I'm lacking a bit. Yeah, you do got to put yourself out there. You got put yourself out there. That's exactly right. Poor form does come your way. um Because I think when I was in NZ, all I did was come back from work and there was fucking quite a lot of poor form. Yeah.
00:55:56
Speaker
What we've done recently is we we have these two tug trucks, two brand new ones, and all they do is just hook up to trailers and just move them around the yard all day, every day. um So they're not like a normal truck. You don't have to climb out of them, go down, wind up the legs, connect the airlines and that. You literally just go underneath it, you lift your turntable up, it hooks up, and you can lift the front of the trailer off the ground, plug airlines in, drive away.
00:56:20
Speaker
Well, these two brand new ones, like brand spankers, week old. One of the drivers decided to wash his trailers after hours. And the way we do that is it's very similar to a car wash at a gas station, but this thing's fucking huge.
00:56:38
Speaker
It's like, it's fucking huge. And you can drive your your truck and trailer into it, or two trailers, um drop them, drive out, go and push a whole bunch of buttons, and this machine will start scrubbing the front,
00:56:52
Speaker
um The two arms will go around the side and it'll travel the length of the trailers and wash the side, front, yeah roof and back and everything. And it'll go over it twice. um but It's a huge thing. like that's The track is, I'd say, maybe 20 metres long, 22 metres long.
00:57:11
Speaker
um It's really fucking high, obviously, because you've got to drive the trucks and stuff in it. um So this guy's tried to do it after hours um instead of just parking his trailers up and then going home and letting the people who actually operate the wash bay do it.
00:57:24
Speaker
And he's gone and driven his truck and trailer in there. And instead of unhooking his truck and driving out, he's gone and turned the machine on. And the machine has started and it's brought um the roller down to start scrubbing the front of the trailer.
00:57:41
Speaker
But his truck's in the way. And he shit himself, hopped in his truck and tried to drive out, hitting it, realised something's gone wrong. While it's still operating. Yeah. And then just nailed it. So 600 horsepower truck um just pushing and it ended up pushing over the whole fucking trailer wash.
00:58:01
Speaker
Flipped the thing over and it landed on the brand new tug truck. yeah Shit. So, yeah, we just got that quote approved the other day. It was a quarter of a million dollars. Yikes. Yeah.
00:58:14
Speaker
Jeez, that's at a very expensive poor fucking situation. What a fucking idiot. that Yeah. that Why don't you just leave it? It's not my job. What else do I do? Drop trailer there and go home and fucking drink 30 beers like the rest of the drivers, you know? Yeah.
00:58:30
Speaker
That's, yeah. Oh, yeah. Poor form by him. Quarter a million dollars down the drain. yeah Yikes. That'll put your premiums up. Yeah, yeah. I'm definitely charging out more hours now just to cover cover costs.
00:58:44
Speaker

01:00:12
Speaker
d ba A G-Banger, yeah. and i saw them, they'll get a couple ground shots in on them too, the old streakers there, they'll always get a bit of a chug, a bit of a hook in. That cameraman got a few high fives, I reckon. He got angle of the day, land the lady with the G-Banger. Yeah.
01:00:29
Speaker
oh yeah but I was like a good event oh with Jordie Barrett with MASH and Neil Wagner were for fucking six yeah he him and Lou Vincent they to be the standouts for the day reckon yeah even that Bochet dude was Bochet or whatever he was fucking mean too yeah mean William Wairua yeah hilarious Playing for cricket team. So they have quite a lot of cross-section of different celebs and stuff.
01:00:57
Speaker
Sports stars and celebs. sort of thing yeah And they they they mic up some of the players too. Oh yeah. Commentary while they're playing and things like that. It's really good. Rugby's never actually won it.
01:01:09
Speaker
But they came fucking close last night. Down to one ball. They just needed a six to win. Missed it. Yeah. Jordy Barrett. Airball. They needed a caller and I would, Oh, yeah. Fucking... What's his name?
01:01:27
Speaker
The, uh... Jeez, I'll fuck that up. Move on. It's got the team lists here. Kieran Reid, Geordie Barrett, Cameron Boshier, Andy Ellis, David Hill, Michael Hussey.
01:01:39
Speaker
Yeah, every time Andy Ellis was on the field, eh? They just start playing that Who the fuck is Ellis song. Excellent. Good use of the song. Yeah.
01:01:52
Speaker
Yeah, they've got a pretty fucking great catch from Lou Vincent too, wasn't it? Yeah, he had a couple, eh? There was like a full sideways verical or horizontal one and then there was one running backwards over the shoulder, I think, in a dive.
01:02:10
Speaker
Old Jesse Ryder, he's got to be an inspiration for a lot of big men out there, surely. don't know what you're saying. Jesse Ryder?
01:02:22
Speaker
I felt like you were talking directly to me. I was a little bit puzzled in his back then. would be your poster boy. Nah,
01:02:33
Speaker
nah, nah, it's obviously just taking it that way, but, yeah, nah. I mean, I reckon a great athlete.
01:02:41
Speaker
Yeah, nah, it was. um he shot you He shot 80, didn't he? Yeah, yeah. No, it was really, really enjoyable going to watch. had to watch it on YouTube, though, because I thought Kaya was streaming it, but they weren't. and um And the YouTube coverage was just streamed, and was very staggering.
01:03:00
Speaker
And then about halfway through, they had a message come up on the screen to click OK to continue, but for them to sort out. And it stayed there for ages. Oh, really? For ages until like the last three overs.
01:03:11
Speaker
But it was still a good watch.
01:03:16
Speaker
Can you guys get TVNZ on demand there? Probably not, eh? Nah, it's region locked. Yeah, you've got to use those VPN things. Get around it. if we were sponsored by them, we'd plug them, but no.
01:03:30
Speaker
I'll try that out. Are you regularly using them, Matty? I've looked into it. I haven't really had a... I don't really have a a a good use case. like yeah yeah Apart from from that, but like I wouldn't probably like watch it a lot. you know I don't know if I 100% trust them, eh?
01:03:49
Speaker
Whenever I see something just advertised hard out on YouTube or anything like that, I just immediately get some distrust for it. Yeah. You should, that's good to be honest. Yeah. No, that's a good stance to have, cuz. Oh, yeah. i I hate being marketed to.
01:04:06
Speaker
Yeah. Yep. Turns me off. Turns me off your product. I mean, the word... I mean, influencer, eh? Like, what does that really mean? Influence you to buy shit is what that means. 100%, yeah. They're literally describing things that I don't like.
01:04:20
Speaker
like Yeah. Like, I don't want your influence. I want my influence. Yeah. Yeah, fuck them. chicken ways Maybe ah maybe we become anti-influencers.
01:04:32
Speaker
and be hey What does an anti-influencer do? Fuck all actually, eh? I'm actually one right now. so yeah How little can you do? yeah we We need to influence people not to buy shit so we can just talk about how shit a lot of products are.
01:04:53
Speaker
yeah thereby influencing them not to buy it. I think we've already done quite a lot of that on this podcast actually. What think care what if Kim was the first anti-influencer? She's like, no, not paying my tic just because you're trying to influence me to do it.
01:05:09
Speaker
I always said I wouldn't buy any drugs, that's illegal.
01:05:17
Speaker
Kim, if you'd like to share your side of the story, please reach out to us on the cuzchatpodcast.gmail.com. We'd love to chat to you. Well, then that's that's a good topic. Are there any products lately that you guys have been disappointed with?
01:05:37
Speaker
I bought a fan for um Christmas. Well, not for Christmas. I bought it for Ampi. It was a remote-operated fan light from Kmart. And I generally don't buy from Kmart, but it's in there.
01:05:50
Speaker
All right for temporary stuff. Yeah, it was temporary all right. Temporary all right.
01:05:58
Speaker
Lasted two hours, I think. And in that two hours, the buttons were only sometimes working on the remote. So it was... and Not only was the time that I was using it not enjoyable...
01:06:13
Speaker
it just died anyway, you know? Yeah, I've got a, actually, of mine's the reverse though. I've got an LG stick vacuum and it was great and then now it is shit and I know it's just the batteries.
01:06:27
Speaker
Yeah, it's always the battery. The batteries are so expensive. Yeah. so I just didn't get it and I went to Kmart and bought $50 normal plug-in cord vacuum and to my, my, my delight and humour,
01:06:41
Speaker
trying to watch my kids work out how to turn it on because they'd never seen a corded vacuum before. It was hilarious. Shit. yeah yeah But man, she fucking, she sucks like ah like a whore on a sailor ship. Fuck, she goes, hey.
01:06:53
Speaker
Like, you just forget yeah how good a corded vacuum is. A 240 volt vacuum is, eh? We ditched our cordless one. I believe in the mate. Because the other ones, they really don't get in. They really don't get in.
01:07:05
Speaker
Yep. I reckon 2026 bring back the corded vacuum. Yep. And the jug cord. What, the cord or hitting people with it?
01:07:18
Speaker
i read them for i read into that why you i reckon you get some good velocity swinging around that cord with the big round base on it that you get all the time. Yeah, that's true.
01:07:30
Speaker
I mean, even just as a home defence weapon. Yep. It is the poor man's nunchuck. Yeah. but That revolutionises the home security system.
01:07:44
Speaker
If you see someone running to the fucking kitchen, you're like, he's either going to get a knife or even worse, the jug cord. The jug cord. hell.
01:07:54
Speaker
um quite a lot of trauma related to junk food. What about the mum chucks? The mum chucks? Well, I just thought it straight away, thought saggy tits. Are those mum chucks?
01:08:12
Speaker
No, yeah, I've copped a couple of what would you call it? ah the The Australian Open, the the forward and the backhand from the old lady, you know, and then in those moments, I thought like, fucking hell, she could, you know, be Serena Williams' training partner with the jug cord. The jug cord. And they cut you, eh? They cut mum chucks.
01:08:36
Speaker
Another utensil used by my mother, anyway, like a broom, packed by a broom. Um... When you get hit with a wooden spoon and it breaks, you you get in more trouble? Yeah, what's up with that?
01:08:50
Speaker
but That's bullshit. but Just because you want to buy your fucking wooden spoon from the $2 shop, that's not my fault. I'm paying for your failure. yeah Yeah.
01:09:04
Speaker
Well, that's probably why you get in more trouble because you've had to have so many hidings you've worn out with fucking wooden spoon. Yeah. I used to remember the old jug court on the table while you're having dinner.
01:09:17
Speaker
It's like an intimidation tactics. but is Just waiting for you to step out line. That's not okay, eh? That's what said. a lot of drama related to jug courts. That is not okay.
01:09:32
Speaker
I'd say my dad used to put the belt on the table, but my dad wasn't there. He was always at some other lady's house.
01:09:41
Speaker
Daddy wasn't there. Yeah, he was. take me to the fair He was always there at one of my mates' parents' houses having dinner with
01:09:51
Speaker
their kids. Oh, I'm glad you can laugh about it now, Guzzy. I thought it was a bit you could've got it from, eh? There's obviously, the end with the prongs on it's a little bit worse.
01:10:04
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah, the straight, what is it there? Yeah, the male side of it, eh?
01:10:10
Speaker
The dad. The prongs. The prong side. You want to get hit with the mum end.
01:10:20
Speaker
least no one was running the three-phase jug aid. Big fucking bummy knocker on it. Yeah. We'll take some teeth out. Not that ever got hit in the face with jug cord, by the way.
01:10:33
Speaker
No. Definitely the jandal. Jandal on the back of the legs is always fucking stings, eh? Yeah. You've got the jandle, eh? Jandle, bro, yeah, jandle broom.
01:10:44
Speaker
Got a fair amount of verbal abuse.
01:10:48
Speaker
Useless as tits on a bull was quite common.
01:10:52
Speaker
I mean, we'd gone to the cordless jug fairly early. um We did still have the old wooden spoon. Yeah. The old favourite. Always on hand.
01:11:04
Speaker
nice Nice light action. Yeah. And you can get a good noise out of it too if you get it right. It's going to spook them more than anything.
01:11:19
Speaker
I still reckon the kick up the arse is probably the worst one, though. Just with the amount of surface area that it that it catches. i used to get the old flick on the back of the ear. Oh, that's annoying. one The classic one about that is you bucking you can hear it coming.
01:11:38
Speaker
I swear you hear the fucking tension. You sp hear the tension and the shaking of the fingers about the fucking... You can hear the intent mean it's the it's the same It's the same sound you get when you're standing next to the power station, eh? You can hear the electricity running through the lines. The hair's stuck there on your neck. Almost stand up similar to the opening credits of um Once Were Warriors.
01:12:10
Speaker
the bull roar going on. But the thing, you can't dodge it. You've just got to wait and take it because if you dodge it, it's disrespectful, you know? They've loaded up their energy. They've got to release it onto you. Normally, it's been focused on the fucking mischief shit that you're up to at the time to actually register quick enough.
01:12:31
Speaker
Because whatever you're up to, if you're getting a flick on the back of the air, you're up to something. Yeah, you knew you were doing wrong. And that's usually done when you don't know. you don't like you say, you can feel it coming, but they've obviously caught you unawares because you haven't yeah spun around to see what's there.
01:12:49
Speaker
Has someone just fired up the microwave? My spider sense is tingling. Somebody's left a screen in the microwave. Yeah. ah see
01:13:02
Speaker
Fucking it burns wherever you're all fucking air flick by and then you're left with a red air for like 40
01:13:11
Speaker
I reckon your mum's one would really sting eh you know but my mum's one would you know it leaves ah it leaves a bruise you know there's there's a different thickness of that finger you know yours is whipped through air my mum would have even had the dexterity to get it away but it was always from old band that would get that one yeah the old flick on the air oh that's a haymaking finger is pretty sure they're in it pretty sure that was a Bryce fucking classic too that one yeah I see you've had a few of those ones Matty I was more referring to the old kick up the ass because that was yeah I got lined up with a couple of those and I'm pretty was always fucking corn getting me in trouble yep up to mischief yeah yep
01:13:55
Speaker
Or you get the the ones from Nana will be the ones where ah every slap is it syncopated with, you know, word that she's saying. Don't ever fucking do that again, you fucking moody. That's so stupid.
01:14:12
Speaker
Just try and fit as many words as they can in there so they get more slaps in there. And they've still got the energy in it. My mother said to pick this one. Start playing pancake.
01:14:24
Speaker
This ain't musical number, lady. This isn't rent. Just go into high school musicals.
01:14:36
Speaker
Oh, geez. All right. Well-adjusted humans now, so it's all good. Yeah, I have zero trauma. Yeah. It's all good.
01:14:47
