0:26

now on Bumble. I

0:30

mean, beating pain, dental injuries. So

0:32

I've had a, yeah, it's all self-induced though. I've

0:35

had everything done, so I'll make it

0:37

about me, and I'll say, yeah, had that done that. Well,

0:40

I had a crown. I had a crown. Yep,

0:42

had one. Have you had one come out when

0:45

you're eating a lolly? Oh no.

0:47

So it was an older crown, as a

0:49

dentist said, probably would have come

0:51

out anyway. This is

0:53

a dentist, I've been going to Peter for about 20

0:55

years maybe, and when I first saw him, he

0:58

had a look in my mouth and he goes, do you eat

1:00

lollies and drink soft drink? I'm like, wow, are you a psychic?

1:02

He's like, no, I can tell by your teeth. Anyway,

1:04

so he's always on to me about what I'm eating,

1:07

and so the first thought I had was when it

1:09

came out, I went, oh no. We

1:11

pointed which one it was. About the top back.

1:14

Oh, that's right, so you couldn't see it. Yeah, you

1:16

can't see it. But you can still feel it now. Oh,

1:18

what happened? So I was eating a fruit

1:21

chew, which is a sticky

1:23

toffee fruit lolly, and

1:25

I just pulled it out and

1:27

I'm like, oh. Toffees are the worst. The

1:29

worst. So I go and see him, and

1:31

I kept it to show him. He

1:34

goes, yeah, that's no good. We're going to have to make

1:36

a new one. That's old. It probably would have fallen out.

1:38

He goes, but what was it with us? I said, I

1:40

was with a lolly, like a chewy

1:42

lolly. He's like, oh, I told you to stop eating

1:44

those. I'm like, yeah, yeah. So anyway,

1:46

he puts in a temporary crown. Yeah, pretty quick

1:48

though. Bang. Oh, yeah. It

1:51

was, anyway, about a week later,

1:53

I'm... Oh, no. The

1:56

temporary gate comes out. Not with a lolly. Yep.

1:59

No, well. I go back and see him and I

2:01

sit down and I go, your temporary crowns come out and

2:03

I present it to him. He's like, what, what, I'm not

2:05

gonna, he goes, I'm not gonna do anything until you tell

2:07

me what it was, what lolly was it? I'm like, it

2:09

wasn't a lolly. And he's like, nah, was it like a

2:11

fantail? I said, man, they've been discontinued. He's

2:14

like, he went through lollies, he's going, was it a

2:16

red frog? I'm like, nah, was it a jube? I'm

2:18

like, nah, was it a choo choo bar? And mate,

2:21

was it 1978? I

2:23

will never tell you. And was it Turkish Delight? I

2:25

go, no, I said it wasn't a lolly. He goes,

2:27

all right, then he turns around, I go, it was

2:29

juicy fruit. So

2:31

it was chewing gum that pulled it out. Yeah,

2:34

and so then, okay, he puts the. Temporary

2:36

crown back in. Yeah. I

2:38

said to him, so if I'm like down the beach

2:40

or whatever on my way, do I just stick it

2:43

back in with a bit of super glue? He goes,

2:45

what? Yeah, you can stick it back in. Oh, what

2:47

was it? Because it fits in perfectly. Oh,

2:49

why don't you keep listening because. Oh, no. Yeah,

2:51

a week later. Pull

2:54

the car over if you're listening. This is gonna be interesting.

2:56

A week later. I'm eating

2:58

party mix. Ah,

3:00

I was in Adelaide. I'm eating

3:02

party mix in Adelaide. I

3:05

was in Adelaide during a heat wave. I needed to

3:07

reward myself. I did six shows, six gigs that day

3:09

in Adelaide. You need to go home and reward yourself.

3:11

I'm in the motel room by myself and there's a

3:13

bag of party mix in the middle. Reward, reward. Staring

3:16

at me. And I don't know if you've

3:18

seen party mix. It's got like, got

3:20

little bananas and stuff with faces on it. They're all looking at

3:22

me. Like, all right, come on, I'll eat, yeah. So

3:24

I started eating it and I eat like a, I

3:27

would've been like a green jelly baby. It's

3:29

an a raspberry jelly baby. No. Pulled

3:31

out the. Now how many times is this now? This

3:34

is the third time. This one came out again, third

3:36

time. The temporary, no, this is the second time with

3:38

the temporary one. Second with the temporary. That was what

3:40

pulled it out. Yeah. And then he said,

3:42

stick it back in the next time he went back. Yeah, so all I did, I

3:44

just got, I had a look at it. I

3:46

cleaned the area with my tongue because it's very

3:48

sensitive because the temporary

3:50

crown is covering the nerves and

3:53

stuff, basically. Right. So

3:55

if you stuck your tongue in it, it would be. Woo

3:58

hoo! It's so painful. Yeah. And

4:00

so I just got it and I just stuck her

4:02

up and pushed it in. Yeah, all

4:04

good. So it was still a bit sticky

4:06

from its own glue, was it? No, from the lolly probably.

4:11

No, they kind of make it like a glove, so it kind of

4:13

fits. Like it fits in there. So

4:16

it holds on, it's sort of snug over the

4:18

top sort of thing. Until yesterday. Sell

4:21

it again. So I

4:23

was eating... Take it in now, take it out now, take

4:25

it out now. Well what's happened, I was

4:28

eating a salad sandwich, which is a very healthy choice.

4:30

I just feel something in my mouth, I'm like, oh no,

4:32

it's falling out again. And it's on the

4:34

plate. And my door's like, dad, your

4:36

tooth's falling out. And now the

4:38

temporary one's got all cracks and holes in it. So

4:42

I just ran up to Dennis and said, I've

4:45

got to come back in. And I said, look,

4:47

is it back in there now? He did the

4:49

permanent one yesterday. Oh, so you're back on track.

4:51

The gold one's back. So I've got the new

4:53

crown in there. It's fantastic. The

4:55

temporary one's gone. Because temporary didn't work out

4:57

well for me because being a lolly fiend,

5:00

it was no good. Well, I

5:03

know we should start the show because

5:05

we could go to the music from

5:08

that. Incredible story. But I had the

5:10

same thing happen to me. Really? Similar.

5:13

Riding on a bike, 17-year-old. Oh. Yeah,

5:16

forgot to tie up the front nuts. Oh,

5:19

that's right, the wheel came off. I flicked the

5:21

front wheel out, the forks hit the road. I

5:23

land on next door, the Hyde's driveway. Tooth

5:25

comes out on the road. Go

5:28

to the doctor's. And the doctor says,

5:30

where's the tooth? It's raining. My brother

5:32

goes back, gets

5:34

down the- Where's the flint or tooth? In the gutter. Wow,

5:37

lucky. Puts it in his hand key and

5:39

brings it back. Bang. Just push it

5:41

straight back in. And if you do it within a

5:43

certain amount of time- It'll take. It'll take again. Is

5:45

that still in there? No, eventually. Probably, I don't know how many

5:47

years later it eventually fell out. It used to wiggle. And

5:50

then eventually it fell out. And

5:53

now I've got bridge work there done. But yeah,

5:55

so if you, kids do unfortunately have something like

5:57

that. Over the crack tooth, it breaks in half.

6:00

If the whole tooth comes out,

6:03

just put it back in and then they

6:05

braced it. They put braces on it

6:07

so it could take. If it's in

6:09

there it will wall around. So anyway,

6:11

this show is quite informative. Don't

6:14

eat lollies kids and remember to tie your nuts up

6:16

when you're going on your bike. Look

6:18

after your nuts. Welcome

6:27

to Somehow Related Now. Please

6:30

welcome your hosts Glenn Robbins and

6:32

Dave O'Neill. Anyway,

6:45

welcome to the podcast. Welcome to the podcast.

6:49

You've got to look after your teeth and we should

6:51

pay tribute to the dentist and the dental nurses. They

6:53

do such a good job these days. As

6:55

compared to when we used to go to the dentist in the 70s. Oh

6:58

it traumatises the kids. Oh same here

7:00

because Mr, what was his name? Dr Ward. He didn't

7:03

give us an injection. There was no needle. He

7:05

would just do a filling with

7:07

no anesthetic. Why would he

7:10

do that? Because I don't know, I remember

7:12

leaving when I was about 14 in so much pain

7:14

and Mum goes, did he give you a needle? I'm

7:16

like no. You might

7:18

have been on the bad list. He

7:21

used to have, he'd only concession to children, Dr

7:23

Ward. He'd have a little sticker

7:26

of Mickey Mouse in the corner of the room and

7:28

he'd go, look at Mickey, he's happy, look at Mickey.

7:32

Oh I hate Mickey Mouse. Yeah, he had a sticker of

7:34

Mickey Mouse. Look at Mickey, look at Mickey. Well

7:37

that's not a bad idea. I wiggle

7:39

my toes when I get home. Wiggle the

7:41

toes and then you go, holy, you go, holy,

7:43

huck. I got out. He always

7:45

talks to you. He goes, ahhh. And

7:49

then he had to do the slosh. Anyway,

7:51

we should get our topics. If you've never heard this podcast,

7:54

we're both comedians, we do the podcast because it's

7:56

somehow related. But we do know a lot about

7:58

medical things, dental things. now. So if you want

8:01

up to date references, come to us because

8:03

we've been there done it

8:10

all. Absolutely. And I'm doing the

8:12

comedy festival very soon. The

8:14

last two weeks of the comedy festival in Melbourne, so come

8:17

along. I get some of the related fans coming all the

8:19

time. If you were a dentist, if you compared, you would

8:21

be a specialist dentist. I've been the

8:23

guy that pulled the teeth. You know when they send

8:25

you upstairs to the guy that pulled the teeth. I

8:27

went to him the other day. My

8:30

dentist said I don't really do that. I went

8:32

over the road. He goes I do that. And

8:34

he did it within like it came in

8:36

like five seconds. It was a wisdom tooth. Yeah,

8:39

I'm a specialist of comedy. You're

8:41

not a teeth puller. No, you're

8:43

orthodontic. Yeah, surgeon.

8:46

Yeah, orthodontics. Hang on. What's that?

8:48

Yeah, braces. Yeah. Yeah. That's what

8:50

you are. You're lining it up

8:52

perfectly. Anyway, my show's good. Good

8:55

one. Come along. You're going to put that story

8:57

in your show? Oh my. Because

8:59

I know there's medical stuff in there. A lot of

9:01

medical stuff. You've had your hip problem. You've had your...

9:03

Irritated testicle. I forgot about the irritated.

9:05

Yeah, man. That makes it a fair... It's not like

9:07

a kids character. Yeah, like a kids book. Which box

9:09

do you want? I think it's really a little pig.

9:12

No, I want the irritated testicle. Yes,

9:14

the new wiggle. Pirate joke.

9:16

No, we've got the irritated testicle coming

9:18

out, kids. Here he comes. What

9:21

a job. Oh God. We've got two topics going to

9:23

work out how to relate. What are they, Sam? Neil

9:25

Young and Dances with Wolves, the

9:27

movie. Oh, Kevin

9:29

Costner. Kevin Costner. I like Dances

9:32

with Wolves. It's a great movie. Well, I remember talking

9:34

to Jeff still sent about... I said to Jeff, I

9:36

said, I went and

9:38

saw that new film called Dancing with

9:40

Wolves. Yeah. He laughed. Not about

9:43

Dancing with Wolves, but it is about Dancing with

9:45

Wolves, isn't it? At some

9:47

point late in the day, doesn't he get around there and

9:50

have a bit of a duck a duck a duck a

9:52

duck a duck and scratch them on the collar and stuff?

9:54

Yeah, he hangs out with wolves, doesn't he? Yeah. What year?

9:56

Can I... 1990s? I would say 1990

9:58

here around then. I remember seeing it

10:00

when it was one of the first movies I saw

10:03

when you work at a radio station where you get

10:05

to go along. I went to the Triple-A premiere and

10:07

it was three hours long. I

10:09

sat next to not far away from Mick Molloy.

10:11

Was Kevin Costner in that well? Mick Molloy. I

10:13

thought wow there's Mick Molloy. He's great.

10:16

Kevin Costner wasn't there. He's great then you

10:19

met him. You were like. Have you

10:21

met him? Mick Molloy yeah. No, Kevin Costner. No,

10:24

no of course not. If you could

10:26

look like a movie star who would you like to look like? Kevin

10:28

Costner? Um Brad

10:31

Pitt. Yeah, Brad

10:33

Pitt. Bradley Cooper. Cooper? Who

10:36

was there to be ones aren't they? What's

10:38

his name? John Candy. John Goodman.

10:40

I remember there was a time there where everyone

10:42

wanted to look a bit like what's his name?

10:45

What's his name? Kevin Costner. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It

10:47

is funny isn't it? I remember when Miami Vice

10:49

was big everyone would look like John Johnson. I

10:52

remember liking it. All I remember is that he's a white

10:54

guy who sort of lives like an Indian doesn't he? And

10:57

he has the wolves hanging around him. I

11:00

think it's something about him joining the Sioux. Oh

11:04

that's right. He joins the Indians. Yeah.

11:06

And is it during the Civil War

11:09

that he's there or something? There's some

11:11

good battle scenes isn't there? I

11:13

think so. Yeah. That he hangs

11:15

around with them and learns about their

11:17

culture and learns about life. You're married. And late in the

11:19

day he gets up the wolves come in and there's a

11:21

bit of a dance with them. And

11:24

they call it and that's why you know.

11:26

He directed, I bet he did. I think

11:28

he directed it. Yes.

11:30

Remember Waterworld? He did Waterworld? That

11:32

was the one next to the big one that came out of it and

11:34

that was like Mad Max wasn't it? Yeah

11:36

but in water. That would have been a

11:39

nightmare to film that. Gotcha. Yeah. He

11:41

must have had some and he also was in Build

11:43

It Now or Come wasn't he? The

11:46

Filled Dreams. Filled Dreams, well done. Yes.

11:49

And he's in that new western now. Oh

11:51

yeah he's great, Yellowstone. You've seen all

11:53

of that haven't you? I like that. He

11:55

must have done

11:58

a few flops. of

12:00

absolute peak for him in the 90s with Dance

12:02

with Wools, Waterworld. I wonder what the ones that

12:05

filled the dreams... He kept his age well. He still looks

12:07

good in the western one.

12:09

Yellowstone? Have you watched Yellowstone or...? I

12:12

watched half the first episode in the... From

12:14

what I'm told... From what

12:16

I'm told... Look, it is like a soap opera.

12:18

It's a bit melodramatic. What the hell is going

12:20

on here? And he's always got a new enemy.

12:22

It's like, this series is a casino, I want

12:24

to take my land. And then it's like, nah,

12:26

don't worry about him. Now it's the

12:28

Indians, the Indians want to take my land. And

12:30

now it's a rich guy from New York trying

12:32

to take my land. And he ends up basically

12:34

just killing everyone. Was that one of the first

12:37

movies, Dance with Wools, one of the first movies

12:39

that acknowledged the plight of the Indians as a

12:41

pro? The clichéd version of the Indians,

12:43

the baddies and the Americans

12:46

with the goodies. So you know...

12:48

Funny though, because that's probably one of

12:50

the reasons he got Yellowstone, because that

12:52

movie made him so famous in that kind of western

12:55

world. Probably one of the reasons

12:57

they chose him for Yellowstone, I'd say. Yeah, I think you're

12:59

right. I think I'm right. I think I'm

13:01

right. If anything of any of his flops that he did,

13:03

he must have had some movies that

13:05

didn't... I've got to remember them. Do you want me to look

13:07

up IMDB? You go, and they'll run me through them. But I

13:09

can't, I can't, I'm not allowed to look... The answer might

13:11

be there. The answer's not going to be there.

13:14

It might be. I just want to let the audience know that

13:16

we don't... Why don't we ask Sam to run us through? I

13:19

know you do it. I'll do it. You do it.

13:22

And I'll tell you... What's his name? Kevin

13:25

Costner, IMBD. I'm doing

13:27

this in real time, so I'm not very fast.

13:29

Kevin... Don't look up yourself. Kevin...

13:31

Don't look up the comments on yourself. Hi, I'm

13:50

to go back? Yeah, all right. Let's go through the timeline

13:52

of what Kevin Costner did. Yeah, well I think there's going

13:54

to be a lot of ones that... Was

13:56

13:58

way back. Okay, Dazzleville

14:01

14:23

four massive movies. Okay, I'm going to drop down

a little bit now. A Perfect World. Oh

14:28

yeah. It looks like it was a kid and a...

14:30

The kid sort of thing. Yeah, Wide Earp. Okay,

14:33

don't know it. Okay, cowboys. Then we go The

14:35

War. Don't know what that is. Then

14:38

we go Your Water World. Okay, so they had

14:40

a few... Yeah, go on. So that's like five

14:42

massive hits. What about golf called Tin Cup? Oh,

14:44

that was big. Tin Cup was big. The Postman.

14:48

Yeah, that was a Western. Yeah, no, you're right.

14:50

It was a Western. Message in a bubble. That

14:52

was like a love song, love story thing. Yeah,

14:55

is this interesting? I like it. Okay,

14:58

for the love of the game. For the

15:00

love of the game. No. Yeah, play it

15:02

to the bone. No. See, now we're going

15:04

at 13 days. Oh, we're going down

15:06

now. 3000 miles to Graceland. Oh,

15:09

Road to Graceland. No, Dragonfly.

15:12

Open range. The Upside of Anger.

15:14

So this is his down theory. I reckon Rumor has

15:17

it. I reckon he played the Dad in Rumor has

15:19

it? Because Jennifer Aniston is in that. The

15:21

Guardian. Mr. Brooks. Swing vote.

15:24

Look out. The New Daughter. The Company Man.

15:27

Hatfields and McCoys. Man of Steel.

15:29

Jack Ryan. We're way off

15:31

now. Three days to kill. Draft day.

15:34

Black or White. Macfarlane, USA. Billy

15:36

the Kid. Batman. Okay,

15:38

now we're into the Batman. And he goes back to Westerns

15:40

with Billy the Kid. And then,

15:43

the more unknown, unknown highwayman.

15:45

I think we've established it

15:47

now. And then we just get the

15:49

Yellowstone. Yeah, so basically

15:52

you had those five, in the 90s into

15:54

the 2000s, those massive movies. Like JFK was

15:56

huge. So if we were interviewing, if we

15:58

were like ringing him up now, would you say that? you had a

16:00

bit of a slump there for a while? No. What would you say?

16:03

Kevin, there was

16:05

the era where you had absolute

16:07

blockbusters and then you made more kind

16:09

of interesting choices. Oh, that's good. Yeah.

16:11

You're kind of doing more interesting roles.

16:14

And then I need to talk about that and

16:16

I go, but you seem to always be drawn

16:18

back to Westerns. Why is that? No,

16:20

that's why you're... Then I'd say, and some

16:23

absolute crap in there, Kevin. Yeah,

16:25

absolutely. Oh, that's really interesting. There you go.

16:27

I reckon he's a good guy. The

16:30

person's starring in and

16:32

directing. Yeah, that's tough. It's tough.

16:34

Okay, we're going to do a two shot here with

16:36

the pan where the track is shot and then the

16:38

helicopter's going to come in. Hang on, hang on. I'll

16:41

put my hat on. And action.

16:43

And someone else would have to call action because he wouldn't.

16:46

And then they go and they go and cut and they have

16:48

to walk back over as a split. That's what they call it

16:51

in the movies, a split. That means you get the TV screen

16:53

and you get the... It would take a while because he'd have

16:55

to watch playback, wouldn't he? Yeah. Yeah. The

16:57

directors would see it on the

16:59

run and go, oh, that's fine. We got it.

17:01

Let's move on. As an actor, normally what you're

17:04

doing between takes is eat the props. Yeah. If

17:06

there's... Go to the craft service. But

17:09

he would be hard at it. And that film, how long

17:11

was it? I know. No, you said it

17:13

was three hours. Did I say three hours? Yeah. What's your

17:15

sweet spot for a film length? Hour and a half.

17:19

You don't want to want to go to the toilet. You

17:21

know what I mean? You want to go beforehand.

17:23

Good measure. Sit there, eat your ice cream, come

17:26

out at the hour and a half, maybe two hours

17:28

and go... You don't want to sit

17:30

there just... Because you're often sucking on a drink

17:32

anyway. So... And then

17:34

if you're with your partner, do you go, what did I

17:36

miss? Do you say that? No, here we come back in.

17:38

We've hit the corner of the stupid toilet. You wouldn't know

17:40

why. I rarely leave a movie to go to the toilet,

17:43

rarely. I just hang on. Do you just hang on as

17:45

we sit in the other podcast, go

17:47

to the toilet like a horse? Yeah. Well,

17:51

we're talking about Kevin Costner, have we? I don't know

17:53

what it's... It's Kevin. We just like to congratulate him

17:55

on his... Yeah, well done, Kevin. Well done, Kevin. And

17:58

he's had a resurgence of the yellow... stone and as

18:00

we know all the interesting work now is on TV

18:02

so don't feel bad about going back to TV. If

18:04

you're a movie star and your name is Kevin would

18:06

you change it? That's not my

18:08

dad, it's an old fashioned movie star. But it doesn't sound

18:10

like a movie star name does it? No it's like a

18:12

70 80 year old man Kevin. What

18:14

did he get called Kevin? Mine I

18:17

got called Kevin. You know what Kevin costs

18:19

is Kevin. Hey Kevin. Hey Kevin. It does

18:21

sound like you work it. No disrespect to

18:23

your dad but Kevin is a mechanic to

18:25

me. Yeah well my dad was a mechanic.

18:27

Yeah good name, strong name. Yeah Kev. Kev

18:30

can handle stuff. But he's not a romantic

18:32

hero. No. With the wind in his hair

18:34

sitting on the back of a horse with

18:36

a you know going right off with the

18:38

cavalry. I fall in love with this amazing

18:40

man called Kevin. What? Well think

18:42

of the other famous Kevins Kevin Bloody Wilson. Yep.

18:45

Kevin Hines. The um Kevin Hines.

18:47

You're good. The gardener. Yeah. Kevin's

18:50

Victoria. Yeah Kevin Dennis. Around the country.

18:58

19:01

the comb over. Yeah fantastic. Yeah

19:03

well there you go. So look I take

19:05

it back. Kevin says a lot

19:07

to me. I did a gig. I've done a

19:09

few gigs with Kevin Bartlett. KB who played in

19:12

three decades of football. He's like a stand up

19:14

comedian. He's talked that he used. Never follow a

19:16

footballer. Oh no you can't follow some of them

19:18

but you can't follow KB. Yeah. There's a Kevin

19:20

Bartlett reserve. Yeah. He's had a reserve named after

19:22

him. Yep. And he does the joke

19:24

himself. He goes and so during winter we just grow

19:26

the grass on one side and we comb it over.

19:28

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So he goes on there every Friday

19:30

night collecting the gold coins from the barbecues. Some of

19:32

the perks. That's hilarious. KB.

like Neil Young, he's Canadian

20:28

and he's got some great songs. What

20:30

would you say his style is? It's

20:32

um... It's the first... Sing a songwriter,

20:34

country folk. Yeah, rock. Country

20:36

folk. See, Beyonce's got a country song out now. I've

20:39

heard that. And it's pretty totes

20:41

up and good. Yeah, it's not bad. Called Texas

20:43

or something. I heard it

20:45

the other day and I really felt like boot scooting.

20:47

Woo! And you can boot scoot with

20:49

Sing A Rock. Well, no, I can do mock boot scooting. Can't you

20:51

make a music mix feel good? I like country music. Yeah. I'm

20:54

going to see... What's that joke? I'm going

20:57

to see a country band. Oh really? This weekend,

20:59

Wilco, they're like... Oh, that's my brother loves Wilco. Oh, your brother

21:01

loves Wilco? He's going to be there. Neil

21:03

or Phil? Phil. Neil.

21:05

Phil, Neil? Neil. He's going

21:07

to be there. Neil came on the phone a couple of weeks ago. Is he

21:10

going to Melbourne or Sydney? He's got places all around the world.

21:12

I'm joking. No, he's down in Melbourne. Oh.

21:15

Because his boys are down here and it'll go with his

21:17

boys. And some of Phil's

21:19

kids are Sing A Songwriter. Hey, Jack, Jack,

21:22

Robin. Jack will be there? Yeah. He

21:24

came on 3 L... we came on 7th

21:26

and 7th with us. And he sang a song? Sing A

21:28

Song For You. Yeah, he's good. He was good. He

21:31

too is in the US now. So he won't be at Wilco? No,

21:33

he won't. It's funny that Neil

21:35

likes Wilco. Well, it's all older men and women.

21:37

I saw a woman at the airport. I thought

21:39

it was young and hip. Wilco

21:42

would be in their 50s now, those guys. Oh

21:45

really? Yeah, Wilco. They've been around forever.

21:47

They've been around... I remember first hearing

21:49

Wilco when I was on 3 RRR

21:51

which is 96, 97. Oh

21:53

wow. So

21:56

you don't need a special section for you? You'll

21:59

be the whole section. I'll be the young

22:01

guy there. First I heard of Neil Young was Crosby,

22:03

Stills, Nash and Young. Yeah, because he was in that

22:05

band, wasn't he? He was, but they were Crosby, Stills

22:07

and Nash, and then they were doing that. And, ah,

22:09

you're going to join now if you put another name

22:12

on there. Yeah. But

22:14

he's mainly known as Solo. Solo,

22:17

and his voice is what

22:19

I like. Article. Oh,

22:21

man, look at mine. I'm

22:24

a lollipop. I seen a needle

22:26

and the damage done. That's it.

22:29

It's a bit Bob Dylan. He's a bit Bob Dylan-ish.

22:31

Mine. I've got to

22:34

say, I've got on my phone. I don't

22:36

have any Neil Young songs on my phone except for

22:38

Computer Age. So he did an

22:40

electronic album. Look out. Computer Age. It's

22:42

a great song. Computer, computer, computer, computer

22:44

games. That's my sex. Yeah,

22:47

it's not dissimilar to that. Similar

22:50

to when Bob Dylan took up electric guitars. I remember we

22:52

did Bob Dylan on this podcast. And

22:54

Brian and Kevin saw us at someone yell at

22:56

Traitor. And he brings out the

22:58

electric guitar. When Neil Young did his electronic album, everyone

23:00

was like, oh no. He

23:03

went back. Yeah, there was something about him with the

23:05

guitar and a harmonica. He was bigger than a harmonica,

23:07

wasn't he? He also is famous for

23:10

telling Spotify to take my songs off because I'm

23:12

not going to get off

23:14

on anything. I don't want to. We're on Spotify.

23:16

This podcast is on Spotify. But they just, can

23:18

they do that? Can they just? Yep. And

23:21

not pay you? Yeah. Well, no,

23:23

no, no. And

23:26

so Neil Young started a thing. And now

23:28

that people follow, maybe Taylor Swift, maybe some really big

23:31

names followed him. But he was the first one to

23:33

say, well, the first one that I heard about that

23:35

said, artists aren't getting paid

23:37

enough. Well, I tried to do that

23:39

with Actors' Equity years ago when streaming

23:41

came along because I signed contracts pre-streaming.

23:43

Yes. Well, that was a

23:46

writer's strike in America was about. Oh, was it?

23:48

Yeah. And the actor's strike was about streaming. Yeah,

23:51

just on a loop. On a loop. And

23:54

they often will sell it under a threshold. And if

23:56

it doesn't go above the threshold, the actors don't get

23:58

paid. So, Kaz and Kim was on Netflix. More

24:00

money, give us it now, more money. But

24:02

you had another boom again. You

24:06

know yourself, you would have people come out in the street. Yeah,

24:09

okay, I'll go pay for that. Oh, you

24:11

got to pay for that. Anyway, there we go. Yeah,

24:13

no, YouTube had a bit to do with it. I

24:16

know, Russell Coits had a resurgence on

24:19

YouTube because of the ads as well.

24:21

You got to pay for that. You're

24:24

not doing that for free. No,

24:26

not for free. People always send them to me, there's heaps

24:28

of knock off Russell Coits stuff out there. What is it?

24:30

Oh, stickers. Oh, yeah, there's a lot of that.

24:32

I'd get nothing for any of that. If you see anything out

24:34

there, we had nothing to do with it. And people say, well,

24:36

why don't you know, a working dog who owns Russell Coits, why

24:38

don't they, but by the time they go after them. Well,

24:41

they achieve its aim. Yeah, they just take

24:43

it off the market. I've been on ads for

24:45

certain companies and then you go and they'll put

24:47

it just online and on Instagram or something

24:49

and then you go, hey, you can't do that. And they go, yeah,

24:51

fair enough. Yeah, but they've already put you

24:53

out there. Yeah, I know. The job

24:56

is done. How annoying. It's

24:58

like to a list of down. It's like, you know,

25:00

in front of the Herald's own Glen Robbins pedophile. And

25:02

then you say, no, that's wrong. I go, oh, okay,

25:04

we'll issue an apology. Page 35 tomorrow. They

25:06

don't get about the news. When someone

25:08

says or does something inappropriate, say someone says,

25:11

you're like, you made a sexist remark.

25:13

They would then report that sexist remark on the

25:15

news and you go, you're just as guilty because

25:18

you repeated what Dave Van Hill said. Yeah, they'd love

25:20

that though, I reckon. You're going, you can't like, remember

25:23

there was a thing where someone called the footballer gorilla.

25:25

You're going, you can't say it again. You're

25:27

guilty by saying, oh, don't get me started on this.

25:30

But it's sort of like, oh, he called him a gorilla. So

25:32

then we're the news. We can say anything we like. We're going

25:34

to go. Now you've offended the guy again. My

25:37

least favorite thing in the modern news world

25:39

is when they just get stories off Twitter

25:41

and they go, the reaction to Taylor Swift concert

25:44

was mixed or whatever. And they just got filled

25:46

from court and going, yeah, it was all right.

25:48

Not great. You know, it's

25:50

like, this is one guy. Yeah. You

25:52

want to know my number one about the news is

25:54

when they take the plight of people, maybe a death

25:56

in the family with Carax and something, then they use

25:58

that death. of that death

26:01

to promote their product. So

26:03

they'll go, man died as soon as

26:05

I was in the car accident, fire,

26:07

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

26:09

we were there first. How dare you

26:11

use the life of someone to promote

26:14

your commercial product? Terrible. Disgusting.

26:18

You should be outraged. Yeah, we should get Tom

26:20

Elliott, my good friend, went surfing with Tom the

26:22

other day by the way. Oh, Tom Elliott, Dave,

26:24

you've got to sell those shares, they're going no

26:26

good. He's advised me of my stocks. I don't

26:28

have any stocks anymore, but anyway. So,

26:30

Holley is successful, still is. Canadian.

26:32

Does a lot for the environment, does

26:34

a lot for charity from what I

26:36

believe. Canadian, I

26:38

reckon he's a good guy, how old would he be now? Yes.

26:43

Definitely 70. Do you reckon he gets up in place?

26:45

I reckon he's still 2. If you put him in YouTube, I reckon he would

26:47

have been seen. What's the thing about

26:49

America, you can exist forever over there.

26:52

Bruce Springsteen still 2, isn't he? He's 70,

26:54

he's similar, isn't he? Neil Young,

26:56

the boss. But he

26:58

would be, you know music better

27:00

than me, he's legendary status,

27:03

beyond legendary. Yeah, well okay, so

27:05

you've got like the Bob Dylan,

27:08

he's up there with, he goes Bob Dylan, Neil

27:10

Young, Bruce Springsteen. In

27:13

terms of singer songwriters. Singer

27:15

songwriters, one man, one guitar.

27:17

Yeah, then you'd go

27:19

Dolly Parton's. There's

27:23

a lot of them, I don't know, your favourite James

27:25

Taylor. He's coming out, I

27:27

know, you've seen his photo? No.

27:30

Looks old. Has he? I'm

27:32

hoping he's got Wiltshire access. A Really,

27:52

Joel, they're up there too, but they're more piano guys, aren't they,

27:54

they're not a guitar guy. They're piano guys. So

27:56

Neil Young, up there. Up there, up there.

27:58

If he was here now, sitting around, over one of

28:00

the tables over there and he had his guitar. What would you want him

28:02

to sing? I'd like

28:04

to hear him to sing Computer Age, my

28:06

favourite. But that's an electronic song. But he'd

28:08

probably go, no, look, I'd be

28:11

happy with Heart of Gold. I'd be happy with Old

28:13

Man. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Yeah. Look

28:16

at Mother Nature on the run.

28:19

What's that song? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

28:22

1917. If you're a young audience member out

28:24

there, you probably wonder what we're talking about

28:26

because we're whining into this. Ask Dad. Yeah.

28:29

I remember at school, at high school. It was

28:32

very big at our high school. Yeah, but see,

28:34

we were, again, a bit younger than you,

28:37

we went to New Wave and Punk. So

28:39

we had like madness. You wore a Devo

28:41

at some time. Devo. You wore a Devo

28:43

hat, didn't you? On the train? That's a

28:45

true story. The train, under my book. You

28:48

wore a Devo hat on the train. We're

28:50

not men, we are Devo. I saw him the other night. Where

28:52

did you get the Devo hat from? Mum made it. Mum

28:56

made it for an ice cream container or

28:58

something? Yeah, I can't remember. It's because... Carboard

29:01

maybe. The actual... How many of you

29:03

nearly got beaten up? I actually got energy dimes.

29:05

That's the correct time. There were kind of hippy

29:07

girls, surfy girls, and I remember one of them

29:09

had a Neil Young Russ Never Sleeps thing. Oh,

29:11

even today you get a baby from your front

29:14

heel. You're pulling that baby out. The

29:16

baby boomers listening to this podcast are

29:18

having lovely vibes going through it. But

29:20

back then, I'm going to her. Neil

29:22

Young? I'm into Duran Duran. Come on.

29:24

Come on. I mean, now I appreciate

29:26

Neil Young. I like him. Yeah. Great lyrics.

29:29

He would have written everything. Yeah.

29:32

Yeah, absolutely. Probably hard to

29:34

work with. And you reckon it's biographical, a

29:36

lot of it? I reckon. I

29:38

wonder where he lives. How many of you live in Canada? Where

29:41

Neil Young lives? Yeah. I

29:43

love... Yeah, who's the other guy that's a bit

29:45

like Neil Young but not as successful? Who did

29:47

Jack and Diane, John Cougar, Melancon? Oh, yeah. I

29:50

live in a small town. Yeah. I grew up

29:52

in a small town. Yeah. Yeah. I actually looked

29:54

it up. He actually doesn't live in a small

29:56

town. The town's a city now. What's...

30:00

I live in a small city. Dave

30:02

O'Neill was like a Neil Young type. Could you

30:04

write a song about, how would you do a

30:06

look for your song? I

30:09

like hamburgers, dawg. Yeah, yeah,

30:11

yeah. I could

30:13

go through my day. I wake up at seven, welcome

30:16

by the builders next door, doom and

30:18

rattle. And I get up,

30:21

I'm making the lunch for the kids,

30:23

drop them off at school, get a

30:25

wife my coffee then I'm back to

30:28

bed for my nap. It's early morning

30:30

nap time. Early morning nap time. That'll be the

30:32

chorus. Early morning nap time. And all the Gen

30:34

X and Boomers in the audience are like, yeah,

30:36

why would early morning nap time? Do

30:38

nap time, do nap time. What's he

30:41

gonna have for lunch? This is such

30:43

an exciting song. Go down to prophecy,

30:45

Glen Robbins. We

30:47

had a curry for lunch. Curry

30:49

for lunch, early morning nap time.

30:52

Early morning nap time. Of course,

30:54

we all remember Dave O'Neill for

30:56

nap time. Early morning nap time.

30:58

Early morning nap. Early morning nap.

31:00

Look, new young legend. What more can we say on

31:03

that, Mark? What more can we say? Well, let's have

31:05

some thinking music. Let's have a scene from Dances of

31:07

Wolves. I can't remember any scenes.

31:09

Is there any classic scenes? We could have

31:11

it because John Barry. Oh no, we're

31:13

not allowed to play music. John Barry did the music

31:15

for Dances of Wolves and he is a classic cinematographer.

31:17

No, I don't know. Cinema, he don't really know. Well,

31:19

it'd be good to play a bit of Neil Young

31:22

but we can't. We can't. We just sing along.

31:24

Hey, here's my theory. I reckon, as you

31:26

just did, I reckon a lot of his songs.

31:29

He's been out and about with a little pad in his pocket. He's

31:32

getting ideas. And he'd probably be on the bus. And

31:35

you know what, they always talk about this. Periods

31:37

where they go through... Writer's block.

31:40

Yeah. So who would he go and see to

31:43

talk to a psychologist? I'll

31:45

be Neil Young, you'd be the psychologist. Neil's got

31:47

writer's block. All right. Neil's got writer's

31:49

block. Okay. Good

31:57

morning. Hello

32:01

there, my name is

32:03

Neil, oh yeah. I realize

32:05

you're a singer. I'm

32:07

here to psychoanalyze you and just walk

32:09

you through, I hear you're having a

32:12

few problems with you. I'm

32:14

a traumatic child, the one with the talk about that.

32:18

I've got rhinoplasty, you know, I don't know, I

32:20

need a sp... I can't unblock myself. Well,

32:23

as you know, I see many people

32:25

with problems, I see many people with

32:28

family problems, with drug problems. I

32:30

have seen the needle and I've seen the damage done.

32:32

Hang on, I don't want a needle in that damage

32:34

done, I'm just writing down there. What are you writing

32:36

down there? I'd just like to take a few notes

32:38

while I'm here, okay? What else do you see? Well,

32:41

what you need to do when you're an old man... An

32:44

old man? You need

32:46

to look at... well, old man, look

32:48

at my life. I'm a lot like you work. Hang on, Dick.

32:51

Let me put that into words. Oh

32:53

man, look at my life. I'm

32:56

a lot like... You work? You work.

32:58

Hang on, that's good. Are you?

33:00

No, no, no, keep going, that's all right. Everything's

33:03

a song with you. No, no, no,

33:05

no. Just listen to the therapy and take on the

33:07

wisdom. Okay, I've got problems. There

33:10

comes a time... There

33:12

comes a time, yeah, go on. When you

33:14

will be able to go back to songwriting. Oh,

33:17

yeah. You know, it's

33:19

a natural thing that you have

33:21

to go through. Look

33:25

at Mother Nature on the run

33:27

back in the 1970s. Look at Mother

33:29

Nature on the run. I

33:31

like that. Yeah, you know what? Your therapy's

33:33

really helping me, Dick. Yeah, well... Well,

33:36

she got it. Yeah, well, what I'm trying to do

33:38

is I'm trying to open up that part of your

33:40

brain. There are certain times

33:42

that I find that I am

33:44

creative. This may work for you.

33:47

Especially around the harvest moon. Harvest moon? Wow.

33:51

Yeah, keep going. Harvest

33:53

moon, maybe try writing then. Maybe jot

33:55

a few things down. Listen to people.

33:58

If you hear something... Say

34:00

something, I'll just let the windows a bit of a...

34:03

What's that there? Is that a hurricane?

34:05

HUR-CANE! Not

34:07

tornado, hurricane's better. Yeah, that's good.

34:09

Sorry? Hey, I gotta keep

34:11

going. Eh, eh. Anyway,

34:14

look, um... I'm

34:16

getting a weird vibe. Yeah, well, you know,

34:19

I mean, I'm still my blockage. You

34:21

start doing block, you really helped me here.

34:24

Look, I'm gonna have to wrap it up. Oh.

34:27

But all I can say is, if you get

34:29

a block... Yep. And you can't get around this. Yep.

34:32

Don't worry. Has it got something to do with my heart

34:34

at goal? Hey, that's good. I'm coming

34:36

with stuff myself. Go on, keep going. Oh,

34:38

I'll tell you. Yeah. Don't worry about it. Let

34:40

it be. Let it be. Nah,

34:43

that's not good. Alright, thank you.

34:56

Wow. What's the name of the song?

34:58

Inside. He'd be talking to his assistant

35:00

saying, Don't get that Neil Young in here again. Yeah, yeah,

35:02

yeah, yeah. That was very clever. Robbing about ideas. Very clever.

35:05

Those writers that we have write those skits are very good.

35:07

How do they do that? Ah, they're

35:09

busy. They're writing stuff. Yeah, we get people all

35:12

over the world writing stuff. Incredible. I

35:15

hope people enjoy them. We enjoy doing them. We love

35:17

them. But anyway... I

35:19

reckon I know what this is. So, Dancing

35:21

with the Wolves, Neil Young. Okay, well, Neil

35:23

Young was the original composer for Dancing with

35:26

the Wolves. And you said it was someone

35:28

else. Maybe he did songs that were rejected.

35:30

Oh, that's good. What are

35:32

you going to say? I'm going to say that,

35:34

is it Dunbar? Is that the name of the

35:36

guy? That he was real and that he was

35:39

related to Neil Young. Well, the character that Kevin

35:41

plays. Yeah, Kevin. I think it was someone Dunbar.

35:44

That was his name or something. So,

35:46

Neil Young. Alright. And

35:49

maybe that's why he cares about people so

35:51

much that he realizes he has heritage. Oh,

35:54

he's got the Native American...

35:56

Yeah, in his blood. Even though he's Canadian.

35:58

Alright. answer

36:00

Sam. As Kevin Costner

36:02

has now often told the story,

36:05

the iconic buffalo hunt scene in

36:07

Dances with Wolves involves thousands of

36:09

buffalo. One of them was owned

36:11

by none other than Neil Young

36:14

himself. Neil Young provided his pet

36:16

buffalo, Mammoth and the South Dakota

36:18

meat company provided their mascot, a

36:21

tame buffalo named Cody for the

36:23

film. Wow

36:26

that's amazing. Who is this? You

36:32

have been listening to somehow related with

36:34

Glen Robbins and David Newton. Neil

36:45

Young? He kept buffalo? You have a

36:47

goat or is that you domesticated buffalo?

36:50

A dog or a

36:52

pig? How would you domesticate

36:55

a buffalo? Well they must

36:57

be born in captivity. They

36:59

got penguins at the

37:01

aquarium here in Melbourne. I said to the woman,

37:03

how did you catch these? She said, I know

37:05

they're all bred in captivity. But I'm like, yeah

37:07

but back, not all of them were. Yeah no.

37:09

It's like the mummy and the daddy. Yeah that's

37:11

right. And so these buffalo, so

37:13

much of caught two buffaloes, well

37:15

whatever the man is, buffalo

37:18

is all men. They must be lady buffaloes.

37:21

Bufflets, and they must have bred

37:23

them in captivity and they just

37:25

like a horse. Who's to know these things and

37:27

what people do with it? What a great fact.

37:29

Yeah interesting fact. I'm starting to look at my

37:31

cats thinking maybe I can farm them out.

37:34

Farm them out like make some coins. Well

37:36

I think in Hollywood if your cat has

37:38

a special talent or a dog, you

37:40

put it with an agent you go, my

37:42

cat can. My cat can't do anything. I

37:45

told you about the when

37:47

I work in the agency. Yeah

37:49

yeah. When I was filling

37:51

in my partner of the time had an

37:53

agency with talent. A showbiz agent. And she

37:55

was away and she asked me to mine

37:57

the phones. This

38:00

is true. This is true. Okay? So

38:03

I'm mining the phones and the guy rings up and

38:05

goes, he goes,

38:08

can I, do you represent dogs?

38:11

I said, no, no. We

38:13

just represent actors and some singers and stuff

38:15

like that. Oh, I've just got a dog

38:18

that can sing. His name is Socrates. Socrates.

38:21

That's right. Yeah. Socrates.

38:24

Could I just get him to audition over the phone? And

38:26

I'm going, I am pissing myself and I'm not

38:28

for a second believing this is

38:30

a setup. Not for a second. No. You

38:33

go Socrates, Socrates, sit, sit, Socrates, sit, sit,

38:36

Socrates. Okay, sing Socrates and Socrates

38:38

go. Yeah. Red

38:41

Socrates, red Socrates, sing. Come on,

38:44

put your boys up here and Socrates, sing.

38:50

I am banging the table

38:52

laughing and then he

38:54

goes, aha, I got you. It's Jamie

38:56

Dunn who was Agro who was with

38:58

the agency and he

39:01

was represented by the agency. Because

39:03

he did radio for years. Yeah, represented by

39:05

the agency and wanted to do his funny

39:07

character. Gotcha. Got you a beauty.

39:09

Gotcha. And got me a beauty and

39:12

then I don't know, you probably hear it somewhere. Sometimes

39:14

when people ring up you do think, is this a prank? Oh

39:16

yeah, I know. He goes, is this a prank? Yeah.

39:19

Yeah. Sometimes you don't though.

39:21

You go, how could I not pick that up? I saw

39:23

a ring me up once and said, we want you to

39:25

come on at half time with a footy and dress

39:28

as a giant master card and

39:30

lead the crowd in Mambo number five. I

39:33

was like, oh, this is a set

39:35

up. This is Mick Moore. Who's ringing up?

39:37

Who is this? Yeah.

39:39

That was real. I always regretted saying no. Just, I

39:41

just wanted to be. No, the experience of having that.

39:43

Imagine that wearing a giant credit card and going out

39:45

at half time again. A little bit of Monica in

39:47

your life and a little bit of, whoa, here comes

39:49

a beer bottle. Whoa. And you

39:52

can hit people and they probably people

39:54

kick you and you know, what are

39:56

they called when they get into fights?

39:58

Those things. like

40:00

the Mascots. Oh

40:03

the Mascots, they have fights. Yeah. So I could have

40:05

been a giant Mastercard having a fight with a Visa

40:07

card. I could have made me in show business. Oh

40:09

here we come. Would you welcome to the stage now.

40:11

Why do you do this with your show? The Giant

40:13

Mastercard. You remember him from the Giant Mastercard. Would you

40:15

welcome Dave Aineal. The famous YouTube fight with the Visa

40:18

card. Yeah. But then I'd have to wear the costume

40:20

all the time. No but you pull your pants down

40:22

and they do the credit card in the crack of

40:24

your arm. Oh yeah. That

40:26

would take you around the

40:28

world. Uh, missed opportunity.
