2:01

pizzas but he refuses to put pineapple

2:03

2:17

pretty good at it. In

2:20

Naples don't ask for pineapple. Hey

2:22

if I'm down the road from

2:24

in the frozen section of Woolworths

2:26

I'll have pineapple. Do

2:29

you prefer the beach to the backyard pool?

2:35

I know what you do backyard pool for you isn't

2:37

it? Every day of the work yes. Has

2:40

that changed since Penrith got a beach? Slightly.

2:44

Oh don't lie. No it's my pool

2:46

every day. My pool is

2:49

my sanctuary. Do

2:51

you brush your teeth in the shower? Surely

2:55

not. What else do I do?

2:57

What are you doing in the shower MJ? I

3:00

brush my teeth I get straight in

3:02

the shower first thing in the morning which is about 340

3:06

coming into the show for that and I kill

3:08

two birds with one stone I have my toothpaste

3:10

and I have my toothbrush in the other section

3:12

and I brush my teeth and as

3:14

I'm brushing my tooth I do

3:17

a weezers. Oh stop. No you don't. Oh

3:21

you kept that out of the pole. Well look that's

3:23

three. Do you wear the shower? Do you wear the

3:25

shower? There's your next pole. Put

3:27

it out now and we'll see how that goes.

3:29

I'm going to do it right now. Do

3:32

you know what I do? I

3:35

put the shower on let it warm

3:37

up and go and brush my teeth. No

3:39

you don't. I do. What's

3:41

the shower's water? I pulled

3:43

a hairball out of my shower drain this

3:45

week that was like a skipping rope and

3:47

anything that had happened in that shower was

3:49

in the hairball so there would have been

3:51

toothpaste urine whatever else if I had been

3:53

in your shower MJ. So I cleaned mine once

3:56

a week my little drain. a

4:00

chroma hanging bowl from what's found in the box. What

4:02

about one of the threads which I

4:05

was shocked about. This is not a good

4:08

one. Which twist did you go to? Chicken

4:10

or cheese? Well that's

4:12

a big one. Chicken or cheese.

4:14

Cheese on the top. Cheese

4:16

may be chicken in

4:18

a sandwich but burger

4:22

rings blows them all off the desk. There's

4:25

burger rings in the vending

4:27

machine. Hello we have a winner. Um

4:30

one triple three five three if

4:32

you've got any opinion. You

4:35

just posted one now. What is your poll? Do

4:37

you win the shower? Yeah and I've got one

4:39

vote of yes. That's it.

4:42

Yes so far. Oh wow it's early

4:44

days. That's spooky my mate I

4:48

think. Are you a waffle stomper? Oh

4:50

my god. I've been known to

4:53

yeah. No you want

4:57

to twice in the. No waffle

4:59

stomping. Come on that's crossing

5:01

a line. So you're asking you're asking

5:04

the type of questions pineapple on pizzas

5:06

your eggs hard or not. What

5:08

do you prefer beach or gym? Here's

5:11

a couple you've got. Um

5:14

preference at the gym. Yes and

5:17

then you've got what have you

5:19

got bench personal squats. Yes there's not

5:21

much of a choice there. What's your

5:23

preference? I'm bench press. I love

5:25

a bench press. I hate doing squats

5:28

because I can't walk for three or four

5:30

days after it so I've always been

5:32

a bench press man. Anything

5:34

but the rowing machine for me. Oh that's a

5:36

bastard. That is no good.

5:40

Seriously. Get someone to row for you. That's

5:42

what God will use it for. You

5:45

know what I mean? I had an incident once with

5:47

a rowing machine. Oh here we go.

5:49

What happened? I was at

5:51

union there was a very attractive guy that I

5:53

was checking out and I wasn't concentrating on the

5:55

rowing machine and I had a long shirt which

5:57

got caught in the rowing machine. I

6:00

couldn't get out of the rowing machine and he

6:02

had to come and get me out. And

6:06

that man is now married to you. Well,

6:11

firm pillow or soft pillow. That's

6:13

what's that. Why would you put that out there?

6:15

Well, you know, I've already done one. I thought

6:17

I'd done one as well. When do you ever

6:19

turn the pillow over after five or six minutes?

6:23

It's very cool. It's cool. Yes.

6:26

Oh my lord. But I like a soft

6:28

pillow. Everyone seems to like

6:30

firm pillows. I like my head sinking into a

6:32

pillow and kind of nestling

6:35

in around my ears. I

6:38

like when the feathers come out when girls have a pillow

6:40

fight. You know that one? In

6:42

the gym jams. Well, we're going to need some at my house. We're

6:46

going to need some at my house because we

6:49

have four pillows but one of them has gone

6:51

missing. We can't track it. We can't track it

6:53

down yet somehow in the middle of the night

6:55

all of a sudden. You know that magic trick

6:57

where they can take the teat out but they

7:00

can take your table cloth with. Oh yes. All

7:02

of a sudden my pillow just goes yink. She

7:06

absolutely just takes the pillow out into my

7:09

head in the middle of the night. Smart

7:12

girl. Hey,

7:14

I've got one for you. What

7:17

do drunk vegans eat? So

7:21

if we get drunk and you go to a cabab,

7:23

you know, you go, yeah, I'm just using it to

7:25

get a cabab. You

7:27

know what I'm going to do? I'm

7:29

going to get up and have, you

7:32

know, a burrito. But hang on.

7:34

But if you're vegan and you're drunk, your go-to

7:36

is what? Filippo. Wouldn't

7:39

it be? Yeah. That's a

7:41

cabab shop. Tabouleh? Where's the fun in that?

7:43

Well, it's not fun. Oh man, I could

7:45

murder some tabouleh. You see, you can't answer

7:47

it, can you? I'm

7:50

going to start my own poll. I

7:54

put that one up. But what's a

7:56

vegans? Oh, that's...

7:59

Yeah, hot shit. Yeah, they don't

8:01

have hot chips. They go hot chips. Yeah,

8:03

it's potato. Yeah, it's potato. But

8:05

no chicken salt. Hey Jason, Jason,

8:07

Jason, what's your question? You

8:11

want to put a thread style question? Yeah, good

8:13

morning. Oh, your ham and cheese toasty. Do

8:15

you put on the outside before you put

8:17

it in the Breville? Oh,

8:20

it's a good course from you. It's like a browner.

8:22

Yes. Oh, is it

8:24

though? Is it? Or do you just go

8:26

nude? Well, I put

8:28

butter on the outside, but my wife doesn't put the butter

8:30

on. So when she makes the ham and toast, he's ice-roll

8:32

in the bin and make another one. Yeah, probably. That's what

8:34

I was going to say. You should have sorted that before

8:36

you got married. That's fine.

8:38

It's like a mixed marriage.

8:42

That is right there, Jason. Matt. Matt,

8:45

what's your vexing question? Thread style. Yeah,

8:49

I reckon... Matt. Hello. Go,

8:51

Matty. Yes, Matt. Yeah,

8:54

yeah. I'm here. And I'm naked.

8:56

OK, Matt. You're wasting my time. You've

8:59

got... Oh, no, Matt. Quick.

9:02

Matt. Hello. Oh,

9:04

no. Quick, Matt. No, Matt.

9:06

No. Get it out of the bag. No,

9:10

Matt. My throwback. After I'm

9:12

done. Do you put your Milo in the glass before or

9:14

after you're milked? Oh, it was worth

9:16

waiting for. Oh, yeah, before.

9:18

After. After. Before.

9:22

Oh, yeah, you put it in before and then you let some of

9:24

it rise to the top. Yes, that's right. It

9:26

breaks loose. It sinks through the milk.

9:28

It sinks through. Oh, I think we've heard enough

9:30

from you, Matt. Oh, hey, Mickey, by the way,

9:32

Mickey, I'm just checking my pollers were going everywhere

9:36

in the shower. OK. There's

9:38

been 10 votes and seven have said

9:40

yes and three said no. Oh, animals.

9:42

That's great. That's my problem. And

9:44

we're talking threads because MG's on it. He

9:47

loves a poll. He's polling, do you, Wayne, in

9:49

the shower this morning? What do you got?

9:51

What's the latest? 63% of people say

9:53

they do. 38% of people say they don't. That's

9:57

pretty reflective of what happens here on the program. Here's

10:00

one for you guys, do you wee in the pool?

10:03

Yes. No. You do?

10:05

I do. Sometimes

10:07

10:58

through the Rhys earns Michael Clark. Yes

11:00

sir. Yes sir. That's

11:02

interesting. He was first Australian captain with

11:04

a sleeve tattoo. Yes. I

11:07

would have thought so. I think Wally

11:10

Grout used to have a nipple ring

11:12

but beyond that. He had a Prince

11:14

Albert. He had a

11:16

Prince Albert underneath his box he shored

11:18

in. Of course Michael Clark went on

11:20

to do much bigger and better things as

11:23

Australian captain. Isn't

11:25

that right Carlos? COAT

11:28

was the good count now. Triple L.

11:32

Yes. Yes. It's

11:34

when you are the war no it's the same year

13:45

as you make ninety ninety seven but of on

13:52

holder Well,

14:00

1982 was a good year. That

14:02

was 1098 was one of the

14:04

great albums of my childhood and I remember that. Let's do

14:06

it. 1 triple 3 5 3. Want

14:09

to get involved? What was the year? Name the

14:11

songs. We can't take any more calls about 1991.

14:14

Sorry. You got

14:16

to stop. We've established that was

14:18

a pretty good year. Greg from Blacktown's on

14:20

the line. What's the year for you, mate?

14:22

86 Dias Straits. Matty

14:25

for napping. Tick for free. You

14:28

got to stop for nothing and you ticked down for free. What

14:31

an album. Alright, well it's obviously

14:33

resonated with you. Yeah, Greg? Did

14:35

you ever see them live? No,

14:38

never. No, no. I've got

14:40

a very bad memory of them. Why?

14:43

I went and saw them. It was

14:46

outdoors. It was like a show. I

14:48

lost my sunglasses. That was it? That's

14:51

it. No, it was

14:53

like it kind of killed my buzz. You

14:56

know, I just walked home going, got

14:58

my sonnies. Lay bands gone. Well,

15:01

thanks for nothing, Dias, great.

15:05

So in the break, we couldn't stop talking about the

15:07

Blue Light Disco. Now I'm going to

15:09

be full disclosure. I've never been to a Blue Light Disco.

15:12

I just missed that whole thing. So

15:14

what was the vibe again? What happened? So between

15:17

about 1982 and 1985, you'd go to a high

15:19

school. My

15:22

school was in Clare High School. I'd go to

15:24

with my mates on the way. I

15:27

was about 15, I was. And

15:30

you'd have a drink. You were about 22 in

15:32

high school, I reckon. Last year. You'd

15:37

buy a flagon of wine. You'd

15:39

have a sip of each. And then by the time you got to the

15:41

Blue Light Disco, you were half cut. Why?

15:44

Because you weren't allowed to drink it. You weren't allowed to

15:47

drink at the Blue Light Disco. No,

15:49

no drinks at the Blue Light Disco. Because the

15:51

police there were the security guards. Obviously the Blue

15:53

Light Disco was the Blue Light from the police.

15:56

And They would chaperone

15:58

everybody. Some the

16:01

best memories or random sample of this

16:03

as. Also you know like this guy

16:05

didn't get out used. To have them in Muncie

16:07

19:09

that was realize it as an eight speed

19:11

and power. You guys are unstoppable and die

19:13

in in in with a bit more length.

19:15

We sort of rang directors assess as as

19:17

I said have be attacks will pay per

19:20

view a what famous on the field because

19:22

you would run to you dropped and effect

19:24

on a couple of guys as you're running

19:26

so hard to throw up on the field

19:28

say on different I would give up why

19:31

Before that we. All

19:34

get off on a flight of stairs and

19:36

get by of these yes, I know when

19:38

to pull. The Pin Pam. so anyway

19:40

much greater be back. On the South

19:42

is Paypal. so curious about what you

19:44

doing when are you reading the news

19:46

over there in Perth you're a bad

19:48

to go around on dancing with start

19:51

until I ask what is tougher pre

19:53

season with a whisker sales or dancing

19:55

the president like ah well, is this

19:57

in. I knew I was told.

20:00

dancing was going to be tough and it really is. I

20:03

would have done more hours on the

20:06

dance floor each week than I've ever

20:08

done playing football, which is

20:10

hard to fathom, you know, and I didn't know

20:12

what to expect. I thought I'm not going to

20:14

know until I'm three or four days in and

20:16

then once you're three or four days in, you

20:18

are three or four days in. So

20:20

I thought, but fortunately I did love it. And,

20:27

you know, the long days and the tough

20:30

sessions were the easy bit for me. I

20:32

really did enjoy it. Don't

20:34

pull your hamstring off the bone.

20:37

Not cheering dancing with the stars.

20:40

What you going to dance? The nut bush in here, get a

20:42

nut bush in there somewhere. I

20:44

haven't come across that yet, but yeah, I'd

20:48

like to think my best dancing is still ahead of me.

20:54

Well, we look forward to it of

20:56

course, but we also look forward to

20:58

you coming on the front tonight, 8

21:00

30, check your local dials. We've been

21:03

going through your highlights package

21:05

and it's clearly one of

21:07

the best. Can I tell

21:09

us what it was like to play with that midfield at

21:11

that time? Because famously it was one of the great mid

21:13

fields of all time, including Judd, yourself,

21:16

and a couple of other all right footballers. Do

21:18

you have fond memories? Oh

21:20

yeah, it was a great time to

21:22

be playing footy. And we

21:25

developed from a side that not

21:28

too similar to where the Eagles are at the moment. Winds

21:31

were few and far between. And it's

21:34

a tough gig when you're not having the

21:36

odd win. And then we slowly got better.

21:38

And then those days

21:40

when we were competing for flags, it

21:44

was just a privilege. Those guys were so talented,

21:48

but I guess the foundation of

21:50

not just that midfield, but the

21:52

side was built on hard work

21:54

and you sort of, you can't go

21:57

wrong really. And yeah, it was

21:59

a special time. It was a special

22:01

time and it was a great team and that's some classic

22:03

encounters 2005 and 2006

22:06

against the Sydney Swans, the

22:08

local mob from here. What are your memories of

22:10

those encounters? They

22:13

were amazing. They very

22:15

much were a side that

22:17

was similar. They were built

22:19

on hard work too. We

22:21

knew that through

22:23

the course of a game we may find

22:26

ourselves on top but

22:28

we probably didn't think we were going to

22:30

break them. That just wasn't the way they

22:33

were and we sort of prided ourselves in

22:36

a similar vein. It

22:39

was uncanny how they would always come down to

22:41

probably less than a kick to go either way.

22:44

We admired, really admired the way they went

22:46

about it. They were tough. It

22:51

was probably a true reflection on how

22:53

even both sides were that they got

22:55

the win one and so did we.

22:57

It doesn't always work like that quite

22:59

easily. Luck could have

23:01

it that we could have found ourselves winning or losing

23:03

to. I can

23:05

look back on it a little bit more diplomatically

23:08

and fondly now that we managed

23:10

to square the ledger. Well,

23:12

it's good to see you're reading the news rather

23:15

than making the news these days, mate. You're

23:17

over there in Perth. It's a lot easier. Never

23:24

introduce a story about yourself and you'll

23:26

be right now. Can I ask, do

23:28

you get together the boys? You do

23:30

a reunion because you were pretty close-knit.

23:32

Bunch, do you get together? The

23:35

West Coast boys, yeah. Yeah

23:38

often. Usually

23:42

now there's a day in October,

23:44

the first race meeting, we all

23:46

go out to the races and

23:49

have a big day so that

23:51

by now it's guys flying from

23:53

wherever and the

23:55

numbers are always pretty good. It's a great

23:58

day. We do that often. And

24:00

then even now there's two or three things

24:03

through the year that we all try and get to.

24:05

So, you know, that's a big part of the reason

24:07

why you do it. Let me say before... Sorry,

24:10

go. I was

24:12

just going to say, any reunions at Tigerland?

24:15

Because people get... You were

24:17

a Richmond champion as well. Oh,

24:20

listen, I love my

24:22

time at the TIGs. Any

24:24

excuse to get to Melbourne is largely

24:28

based on catching up with the

24:30

Tiger boys. So it's

24:32

funny, I've been here for a few days and

24:35

the TIGs were in Perth playing. So I missed

24:37

that. The kids went and

24:39

watched them play. But

24:42

because I've missed them, I'm going to try and come back

24:44

in a couple of weeks' time. There is actually a reunion

24:47

for the free-air game. So I'm trying to get back for

24:49

that. Good idea, mate. Well, thanks for

24:51

your time today. We look forward to catching up

24:53

with you tonight. Ben Cousins on the front bar,

24:55

Channel 7, 8.30. See

24:58

you there, big fella. Cheers, guys. Thank you.

25:00

See ya. What the **** is going on? Could you let

25:02

us follow up? What the **** is wrong with you? What the

25:05

**** is wrong with you? Meek and MG, what the... WTS? Let's

25:08

start with you, MG. What have you got? I've

25:11

got one on

25:13

Stephen King, perhaps the greatest horror novelist

25:15

of all time with novels such as

25:17

Misery, The Shining, Salem's Lot, Pet Sematary,

25:19

P.J. Wells. Yeah, yeah. What

25:21

is it? He's got a sleep with the lights on. What

25:24

the ****? That's not true.

25:27

He's absolutely scared of the

25:29

dark. Stephen

25:32

King. What do you mean? Why

25:35

are you hearing that? I've got no fact checkers. I

25:40

get to send a lot of crazy stuff,

25:42

as you would imagine, and a lot of crazy

25:44

stuff I like to reiterate to our audience and

25:47

you beautiful people, but this is one that I

25:49

thought, and it's true, I'm a fact checker

25:51

on this, I'll give it to 100%. Do

25:55

you sleep with the light on? I've got a bit of light

25:58

in the house here, I can't sleep. Like

26:00

a dimmer? Yes, a dimmer. And what do you

26:02

wear to bed? What do you wear to bed? Just a pair

26:05

of boxes. A pair of boxes?

26:07

A bit of breathing room downstairs? Yeah, no

26:10

one needs to know. Okay. Alright,

26:13

well, good for you. Sometimes

26:15

nudists as well. Okay.

26:20

Okay, I'm getting that fact check.

26:22

Yep, thumbs up. Alright, Cat, what

26:24

do you got? Dolphins are born

26:26

with a tiny moustache. What the fuck?

26:30

I don't need that. Like

26:32

a full on little French painter moustache.

26:34

Aww. A little Hitler.

26:37

Like one of those? Or David

26:39

Niven? Little David Niven? More

26:42

of a cald up. Yeah, I'd

26:44

like to see an honour with a

26:46

goaty. Or

26:51

what about a dugong with mutton

26:53

chop sideburns? Oh, I'm just sure.

26:55

Caligong. Alright,

26:57

Tash, what about you? A

26:59

woman has sued Disneyland after

27:02

Goofy reportedly permanently injured her.

27:05

What the fuck? Idiot,

27:07

Goofy. Goofy? What did Goofy do?

27:09

Dry humped her leg? No, this

27:11

is, she's alleging that while she was

27:13

bending over to tie her daughter's shoes,

27:15

Goofy walked into her, causing her

27:18

to fall on the cement. Yeah.

27:20

Aww, she'd been rear-ended by Goofy. He's

27:23

probably trying to sniff her

27:25

butt-butt. That's

27:28

what dogs do. Goofy's

27:30

just... Goofy's pretty

27:32

dodgy. Goofy? Okay, I can't wait

27:34

to see Goofy in a police

27:36

line-up. Alright, can you? You

27:39

get the idea? 1,

27:42

2, 3, 5, 3, how much money we got to give away? Oh,

27:45

baby. Wow. Good

27:47

ball. Yes. It's all been

27:49

happening today. We know that Stephen King sleeps with

27:51

the lights on, MG wears boxes

27:53

to bed. Yeah, it's just

27:56

this segment just delivers. people

28:01

wearing the shower. How's your poll going? 70-30 people

28:05

wearing the shower. Oh there

28:08

you go.

28:10

And what about you again Tarsh? You were gonna

28:12

say what was your soap fact? Oh

28:14

I was just saying I thought an interesting

28:16

topic for you MGE threads followers is do

28:18

you use soap in the shower because a

28:21

lot of people use I use the fancy

28:23

remember Imperial leather? Yes. Oh

28:26

that was the old Tahiti. Simon Tahiti

28:29

looks nice. What's

28:36

your point? So you use soap is that what you're

28:38

saying? Yeah

28:40

but a lot of people don't say it's hygienic and they use some

28:45

shower gel. Oh so a bar

28:48

of soap. Yeah a bar

28:50

of soap. I don't use either I just

28:52

throw a few urinal cakes around. No soap

28:54

on a rope. Remember soap on a rope?

28:56

Oh yes very dangerous.

29:00

Why is that dangerous? It

29:05

wasn't dangerous. If

29:07

you're in prison it is. Wouldn't it

29:09

be handy with the rope you'd need the rope in

29:11

prison. They pick the soap up. All

29:13

right I'm going with the calls because I'm not

29:16

quite frankly over this conversation. Craig

29:20

what is it for me? Draft beer

29:23

mic is not a style of

29:25

beer. Draft is in

29:27

fact a process. Take

29:29

that back. Wow what are you?

29:31

Well a slab of Jenny

29:36

Road draft for you Craig.

29:39

Enjoy the process. I'll tell you

29:41

what the process is. Chugging

29:43

them one after the other. Oh yeah.

29:45

He'll love it. The Jenny Road draft

29:48

is unbelievable. Get

29:50

on board trust me. I don't know much but I know

29:52

beer. Matt

29:54

what have you got for me? The late

29:56

great Donald Bradman was the inspiration for

29:59

the next episode. gaming of Donald Duck.

30:01

And how that came about was Walt

30:04

Disney was a massive cricket fan and he

30:06

traveled and especially of the Dons and he

30:08

traveled over to watch him play and he

30:11

got out for a duck and it was Donald

30:13

Duck. Oh no. No. Getting

30:16

a thumb go. No. This is

30:21

a hundred percent bonafide in bullshit. If I'm getting,

30:23

now I'm getting thumbs up from the fact check

30:25

out and I'm saying that is

30:27

the wildest story ever told. So

30:30

just to recap Matt, Walt Disney

30:32

was a huge cricket fan. At

30:35

the height of his powers he's traveled

30:37

out to the Adelaide to watch

30:39

Donald Bradman bat. Donald

30:42

Bradman's got a duck and he's gone,

30:44

I know I've got a character called

30:46

Donald Duck. Wow. There

30:48

you go. That's how you got the

30:50

name Donald Duck. Excuse

30:53

me. Thumbs up. I'm

30:55

getting thumbs up.

30:58

Thumbs up. Five hundred bucks

31:00

to you Matt. Five hundred

31:02

bucks. That

31:04

is unbelievable. If it's proved

31:06

to be false I'm taking

31:08

it all back. That's true.

31:11

That's true. That's five hundred for you. Well

31:13

done. All right. Well

31:15

keep Mark for tomorrow. Can we have Mark for

31:17

tomorrow? Because there's nowhere to go now. I'm absolutely

31:20

blindsided by Donald Duck.

31:23

Yeah. An absolute bombshell

31:27

has just been dropped on what the

31:29

F that's caused consternation in the studio.

31:31

Five hundred bucks has been given away.

31:34

Call I suggested that Donald

31:36

Duck's character was came about

31:38

because Walt Disney was

31:40

a cricket fan, traveled to Adelaide

31:43

Oval in 1932 to watch Donald

31:46

Bradman play. He got out for a duck.

31:48

However is that. Hands came up with

31:50

the character Donald Duck. Natasha

31:53

Belling you've done a deep dive. Is

31:55

this true? Yeah. All the fact checkers are

31:57

saying it is correct. We've just had a number

31:59

of sources. saying that Walt Disney did take

32:01

inspiration for the ducks name from

32:03

Donald Bradman. As you mentioned in 1932, Bradman

32:06

was dismissed from an Australia verse England game

32:09

at the Oval for a very famous duck.

32:11

This just happened to be exactly the same time

32:13

that Walt Disney was creating a friend for Mickey

32:15

Mouse and that's how his friend

32:18

was named. So it wasn't an

32:20

Adelaide Oval, it was at the Oval

32:22

in England, which is more believable because

32:24

he might have been there at that

32:27

time. Wow.

32:29

Wow, you mean that's our Donald Bradman?

32:32

Yes. This one. That

32:34

would be the key to play the song I

32:37

would have thought. So are we. Bradman. Now

32:39

I ask you is he any good?

32:41

Our dog. Wow.

32:44

There it is. Unbelievable. There we

32:46

go. Well done. Dr. Darkman. Give

32:49

me the news I got it. That case loving you. This is got

32:51

it all. And that's it. Give me

32:53

the news I got it. That case loving you.

32:55

This has got it all. It certainly has it

32:57

all. Can you

33:00

believe, Dr. We are in round

33:02

seven of the NRL and Zach

33:04

Lomax has probably been the most

33:06

spoken about player thus far. You

33:09

know a lot of, you've been to a bit of digging

33:11

on his move to Parramatta and whether the lure of playing

33:13

fullback was used to get him over the line.

33:15

Tell us more, Dr. Yeah, good morning, MG. Look,

33:18

it's spot on. There is layer upon

33:20

layer when it comes to Zach Lomax

33:23

and his start for the season. Just

33:25

as far as Parramatta is concerned, we know

33:28

that he secured that contract and will

33:30

head to the eels at the end of

33:32

this season. A lot

33:34

of discussion about whether he'll play fullback

33:36

at Parra. Now I understand that at

33:38

no point through those negotiations did Brad

33:40

Harper say Zach, you're coming to

33:42

play fullback. However, there was

33:44

always that potential. There was always been talk

33:47

of Parramatta that Clint Gufferton will move to

33:49

the centres in Lomax or any

33:51

other player to fullback. There's actually

33:53

another player, MG, that the eels have

33:55

got their eye on to play fullback

33:58

once Gufferton makes that move. And

34:00

it's Blaze Tlungi. Blaze Tlungi, the

34:02

young rookie, he's off contract at the club.

34:04

That's going to be the lure to get

34:06

him to stay at the footy club at

34:09

the Parramatta Reels. Moving him to fullback. He's

34:11

currently playing in the hards. I suspect Lomax

34:13

will be in the centers. Clint Gufford will

34:15

be in the centers. And Blaze Tlungi

34:17

will be the fullback within the next two

34:20

years at Parramatta. Well, doctor, we just spoke

34:22

about one Zach. Zach Lomax onto another Zach.

34:24

Zach Hoskins for the Raiders. He's out for

34:26

a lengthy stint on the sideline

34:28

course of the shoulder injury. What's the latest with

34:31

him and will the Raiders go to the open

34:33

market to try and replace him? Well, devastating blow.

34:35

He's looking at about three to four months on

34:37

the sideline facing surgery. MG meets

34:40

with a specialist today. We

34:42

should get some confirmation around that. All my mail

34:44

is he's gone for at least three to four

34:46

months. Wow. For

34:48

shoulder surgery suffered last weekend. Displicated

34:51

shoulder. Now it leads the

34:53

Raiders in a situation where they are

34:55

constantly connected to David for feed up

34:58

at the Gold Coast Titans. He's a player

35:00

that the Raiders would happily

35:03

take in a heartbeat. He's yet to take up

35:05

his option in his contract to stay at the

35:07

Titans. I think it only

35:09

takes a phone call from David for food

35:11

as manager to get this ball rolling again.

35:14

At this point in time, the Raiders are

35:16

saying that they're open to it. They're not going

35:19

to chase it because it could develop on the

35:21

basis of what David for food. It does at

35:23

the Titans following this huge blow

35:25

for Zach Hosking out between three to

35:27

four months. Wow. Finally, just a one

35:30

word answer. 49 days till origin

35:32

is upon us. Who wears the number six

35:34

for New South Wales? Oh, geez MG. I

35:36

am counting the days. Look, I'm

35:39

going to go Nico Hines. I just think the

35:41

way he started the season is a big body. Big

35:43

body. He's been sensational for the Sharks

35:45

to launch the season. Great kicking game.

35:48

I'd go Nico Hines. I'm with Jerome Lloyd,

35:50

a fight back and win his spot. Dr.

35:52

David Ricciot will see all your stuff on

35:54

Fox, the Daily Telegraph and everything else on

35:56

Triple M. Brother, thanks for your time again.

35:59

36:49

into like in international visitors here at the comedy

36:52

36:54

37:07

tomato sauce in the fridge or the shelf?

37:09

Yeah, I mean look these are the big

37:11

questions I'm a learning question I

37:14

mean it is and I'm glad that they've never

37:16

been asked before they feel fresh. That's what I

37:18

like about these You really Make

37:24

a record pool for you Take

37:28

that time with me Pen

37:35

red peach or backyard Less

37:40

people where you'll because Another

37:43

issues Involving

37:45

triple-m we were talking about this our favorite year

37:47

for music triple-m are doing one of the big

37:50

queso The goat

37:52

best year of them all do you have

37:54

an era of music for you that stands

37:56

out? Oh, that's pretty good. Actually. Well. I

37:58

mean I you tend to associate it

38:01

with, I don't know, you probably would

38:03

have been across this story in your

38:05

radio years when it came out, but

38:07

it turns out that like sex establishments,

38:09

they will play era-specific music for their

38:11

most, like when they're kind of the

38:14

age demographic of their visitors were at

38:16

their prime. Like so, like

38:18

basically it's meant to remind you of like when

38:20

you were sort of 18 to 25 or whatever.

38:22

I can't get you to just fly. Yeah, exactly.

38:24

So you're young, you're virile. If

38:26

that was going to be me, it's that real

38:28

crossover period between hair metal and grunge. Anything

38:32

in the last days of big hair into

38:34

the early days of flannel, like anything in

38:36

that era is right up my alley. They

38:38

stripper songs. They cry and they pour some

38:41

sugar on me. Which is

38:43

better, cherry pie or pour some sugar on

38:45

me? Which is the goat? You know what

38:47

the goat's stripper song is. Stop doing MG's

38:49

thread. That's his next topic. Which one of

38:51

those two is better? I'm going to say

38:53

this, why do you need to choose Mick?

38:56

You can pay for both those lap dances.

38:58

That's going to get expensive. It's either

39:00

or. In

39:02

stripper dolls, that sure is. So

39:05

you're telling me. Late high

39:07

school. That's your era. So it's pour some

39:10

sugar on me, Def Lebitt. That's late high

39:12

school. And then last year of

39:14

high school for me is Nevermind by Nirvana

39:16

comes out. So Smells Like Cancer is the

39:18

start of 91. And so

39:20

that's when it all changes. 91 is the biggest.

39:23

So it's 1987 for me when this came out.

39:26

I mean, talk

39:29

about the high watermark that's

39:32

off the, what's the old, Boardigan Pistain.

39:34

Boardigan Pistain. Kevin Bloody Wilson. Is it

39:36

the greatest, like I mean so many

39:38

great songs. Kevin Bloody Wilson. Let's be

39:41

honest. But do you think it is

39:43

the greatest? Does it stand above all

39:45

others? I think to me that's up

39:48

there with I Saw Mummy effing circle.

39:52

I mean, they're both classics, right? Of course,

39:54

you're in Melbourne for the Comedy

39:56

Festival. This is your natural habitat. I've

39:59

said this before. I'm loving

40:01

it. I'm loving

40:03

this show. I'm having a really good time. But the

40:05

weirdest thing of all these also I Packed

40:08

40:10

this tour because I'm on tour for a couple

40:12

40:14

40:16

40:19

40:26

40:42

loose fancy for healing free. I checked into the hotel

40:44

40:47

40:49

40:51

40:54

they said but where are you when you're not here I said I'm out

40:57

41:00

41:02

generally nosey you get a real bank Can you try and

41:04

I've heard this because I don't have these amounts of monies

41:07

Okay, if you go in and go I want to draw

41:09

8,000 bucks. I go what for I go.

41:12

Well, it's nothing That's

41:15

not your business. I'm starting a cult I'm

41:19

gonna burn this bank to the ground. What

41:21

is it? You don't you can't say They

41:25

can take out $8,000 in cash, you know

41:27

someone asking you couple quick, but what right

41:29

do they have to know? You

41:36

know, maybe they've just seen how many like yes 3 a.m. $300

41:40

with Jorals have come out of the account. They're like, no, we're

41:42

not giving him a Anything

41:48

I could have crippling gambling

41:50

debts. Yeah I could

41:52

be backing dogs in Hong Kong Either

41:54

way, yeah, I'm in any of you business. I think

41:57

there's the things they try to protect you from We

42:00

weren't meant to be the thing you needed to do. It's

42:02

a very close friend. And

42:04

he's in this room. Have

42:09

you got a show for the festival for us? Have

42:11

you got out and seen... Well, it's no

42:13

point. We're in Sydney. A

42:16

lot of these acts will be coming to the Sydney

42:18

Comedy Festival. Will you be coming to Sydney? Yeah, I

42:20

am at the end more in Chatswood. Those shows are

42:22

almost sold out. They want to come along and see

42:24

me in Sydney. Get on board. It's been really good

42:26

fun. It's actually about my dad. He didn't

42:28

come to the show though. Because I think

42:31

that's good for both of us. So it's

42:33

about your dad? Is that what your dad did?

42:36

Well, here's what it is. It's about me finding out something

42:38

about my dad that I didn't know last year. But

42:40

the problem is the show is called Will Legitimate.

42:42

And that is not a clue. That

42:45

is led by Will Legitimate. The

42:47

name was submitted well before I came up with

42:49

the idea of the show. And that has caused

42:51

me some issues. I've heard very good word on

42:53

the street with this show. Also, is it one

42:55

of those shows where you say you know what

42:57

you're dead to go? Because like when you

43:00

go to see stand-ups, they do a lot of stuff about

43:02

their girlfriend or their partner. And you

43:04

can tell the night that their partner's

43:06

in the crowd. Because let's just say

43:08

the act is wildly different. The

43:11

show meant to be 25 minutes. Someone's

43:18

here tonight. Will Anderson, one

43:20

of the best in the business. Thanks for swinging by. Good night.

43:23

What about the podcast? Oh yes, all my podcasts.

43:25

Everyone relax on the, of course, the listener feed.

43:27

People can check those out. And of course, MG's

43:29

polls on Fred. Oh, you're going to get it.

43:31

What's the latest MG? Latest please.

43:33

Update about winging the shower. Oh,

43:37

the gap is coming.
