Team Tattoos

Tommy: It's a very low barrier to get into the Gronk Squad.

Josh: That's crazy. We've committed to do the Daily Talk Show for 10 years.

Tommy: Hi guys.

George: Hi guys.

Josh: Put it in the calendar. I'd just like to cheque the temperature in the room. I told you my squeegee story.

Tommy: It is outrageous.

Josh: Come on, let's go. It's the Daily Talk Show episode 1016.

Tommy: What is happening? Happy Hump Day, everybody.

Josh: Georgie Boy joins us today at the producer's desk.

George: G'day guys. Good to be back on hump day.

Tommy: Mate, how are you feeling on hump day?

George: Oh, nostalgic. Yeah. Wednesdays were my favourite day for a good 3 months.

Josh: Tuesdays were your worst? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You would—

Tommy: Most anxious, I guess.

Josh: You would spend many hours on a Tuesday evening finishing an edit. Is that right?

Tommy: Fretting about how awful it is. But then and then Pumped up on Wednesday because everyone would say, yeah, yeah, yeah, just clap it, just clap it in. You bit hung? Hung like a monkey?

George: Yeah.

Josh: No. So, yesterday we did do— I'm not really into drinking culture, so I don't want to spend too much time celebrating my hangover.

Tommy: But I was just asking. It was just a question.

Josh: Fuck off! No, no, he's hungover. I'm feeling tired today.

Tommy: Yeah, that's hangover mate. Remember when you said I've never had a hangover?

Josh: You actually— I don't know what like maybe I'm just— Maybe can you stop with the fidget spinner? I can hear the vibration.

Tommy: No, you can't.

Josh: I'm getting more and more— Are you doing that?

Tommy: You're actually bumping it. It was you that bumped it. The guy's hung over his shit anyway. You can't actually hear it.

Josh: So, what was happening? Were you— You banged it. You banged it. You were hitting the—

Tommy: No, but you banged it.

Josh: No, no, you did. Anyway.

Tommy: He's hungover. This is what happens, Josh. A telltale sign of being hungover. Anything shits you out. Everything shits you out.

Josh: No, no, I feel that. George was actually saying, because we were talking about the type of person you are when you drink. Which is funny because I had the domain name, you and I, before we went into business together.

George: Yeah.

Josh: We bought the domain name, When I Drink, and we were going to do a documentary exploring alcohol and culture and things like that.

Tommy: We got too drunk to finish it.

Josh: But it was interesting. Like, yeah. What do you remember from that time?

Tommy: Not much. I think I was drunk.

George: Yeah.

Josh: No, no, no. So, I just remember it must have been 2017. It would have been like just—

George: I was in your office at that point. That was a Diet Street. I met you.

Tommy: You met me?

George: Yeah. Yeah. I remember you came in for a meeting with Josh and you got some brainstorming ideas.

Tommy: I can't even remember that.

Josh: Yeah. Isn't that funny?

Tommy: And so— Diet Street.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: Can't even remember that.

George: Yeah.

Josh: I mean, I remember going to that place a few times, but Isn't that funny?

Tommy: And I remember you being there.

Josh: George being there.

Tommy: But I don't remember. But I felt like maybe I'd already met you.

George: Yeah, maybe. But maybe I remember Josh was like, oh, my mate Tommy. Do you know Tommy Jackett? He's, he was on Sunrise.

Josh: No, I definitely know you. I would always know. I think that that's been the consistent thing. I'm a good hyper.

Tommy: One cameo on the project. Yeah. Hasn't since been back.

Josh: Oobike and all. So, I think it was, maybe it was. Just after Obike Fishing.

Tommy: Did you make the connection though, George? Did you know who I was?

George: No, no, I didn't know.

Tommy: That sucks. This is a sad day.

Josh: So I think timeline-wise, I think in October, I think it was October 1st that you launched the Obike video. The reason why I think I remember that 2017 was because we got the domain name for it. Maybe I feel like you got like an Obike Fishing .com.

Tommy: Yes.

Josh: And, you know, but we did some filming. We went to Smith Street and we asked, we did vox pops and said, oh, you know, what do you like when you drink?

Tommy: It all got a bit sad because we were at the pub and it was probably 12.

Josh: Yeah. And there were some guys there that were drinking who were happy to talk.

Tommy: Yeah, loved it.

Josh: But yeah, it's interesting. Yeah. Booze, I think if you think about over the course of the show, I've spoken about starting to drink, like I just started to drink.

Tommy: And so, now you can't say that because you've—

Josh: Yeah, exactly. But I definitely see the appeal in not drinking and I see the appeal. So, one of the interesting things about what we— Some of the stuff that we read when we're researching about drinking is that there— I remember seeing a graph and it was like anxiety and people who drink a lot. And people who don't drink at all have a higher level of anxiety.

Tommy: Oh, yeah.

Josh: And so, I remember being like, oh, well, maybe, I don't know if this is good science or makes any sense, but I'm like, maybe I'm anxious because I'm not drinking at all. Maybe I need to just drink just a tiny bit, just like be a little bit more carefree with things, you know.

Tommy: But I think it comes with the mindset of the person that doesn't really think too much about it, but then doesn't push it across the line. And that is like saying, use something that's addictive in moderation and have no issue with it. And so social media is that. It's like you totally smash social media, you end up being anxious and comparing. You don't use it at all, maybe there's— maybe it's not the same comparison.

Josh: I get it. Yeah, someone who's not on social media at all, they could be very sort of headstrong, but there could also be a bit of pain that's associated with the social media stuff. But what, uh, GB and I were talking about was what type of person you are when you drink. And I was sort of happy that I wasn't yelly. Like, I was nice. And there was even a point where I think that we were being mean to each other. And Jess said that I said, guys, we're going to— If people are going to be mean to each other, we're going to stop.

Tommy: Okay. That's good. That's good.

Josh: Which— So, my control freakness remains. But GB was saying that if you have rum, you're more likely to be angry.

Tommy: Yeah, I remember hearing all this. I was like, yeah, mate, if you drink Jim Beam, you know, you'll be fucking punchy. I think it's like— did you say that? Yeah, yeah, but I think that was what people used to say back in the day. Um, insurance, you get aggressive. But I mean, is it just the time? If you're not an aggressive person, yeah, yeah, you probably won't get aggressive just because of the liquid. It's like— but then there's the problem with, remember, Pulsars?. They were like guarana energy drink plus vodka. Bad combo for any individual.

Josh: Bad for your heart.

Tommy: Bad for your heart. Bad for you if you've got anger issues. Lots of problems. Anyway, there was no pulses drank yesterday.

Josh: Yeah, but there was very much like a just leaning into stuff that would— you would normally be embarrassing, embarrassed to do. I just remember Jess and I walked and met Bree at a bookshop. And on the way there, just hyping Jess up like, I'm so excited for like your future. Like these big things have— there's big things happening. And I reckon, you know how long Lennox Street is? I reckon that whole time I was doing a motivational speech.

Tommy: Who got more out of it? Me, definitely.

George: Definitely me.

Josh: Yeah. I reckon there's a version of a hangover which is just living with whatever I said to someone.

Tommy: No, 100%. But at least it was a motivational speech, not a— Exactly.

Josh: Like, imagine being crying. Imagine being like toxic or just being angry or like, I'd much prefer.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: But I could also see the other thing. This is one thing that Jess said to me. She's like, ah, like when I drink, as in me, I tend to deconstruct like the, like the next day I'm going through all the elements, like I'm trying to paint the full picture. I'm trying to remember every single thing that happened. Yeah. Well, I don't know if that's like a Natural thing that everyone's trying to do?

Tommy: No, I think people either do it in their head, you just do it verbally, or people push it down, suppress it.

Josh: Yeah, I said to Jess, I don't want to think about what hap—

Tommy: What happened yesterday.

Josh: But some of the things, but it's good to ask because I said, Jess, I had a feeling that I touched your face. Did I touch your face? And she said no. And because when I got home, when you're sort of a little bit intoxicated and you go to sleep, I sort of— This is the funny thing. I was in bed by 8:30, but I slept from 8:30 to 11:00. And when I woke up at 11:00, during that whole time, it felt like I was actually still out and about. And so, half of my night didn't actually happen.

Tommy: Imagine if in the future there's shit that like you plug your head into, like Neuralink. But you actually go out and you can get up to mischief, but it's in your head and it's through like a computer system. And then it's 11 PM. You're like, I'm all, it's all done.

Josh: This is a good— You sound very similar to a guy that's got a VR headset and a fucking, a fuck doll. You know, like just sort of messing with—

Tommy: No, what is this?

Josh: Like imagine this is the future. Just like a guy with VR just Having sex with a— with the— It is.

Tommy: It will happen too.

Josh: It is happening. 100% is happening.

Tommy: What do you mean it's a bit nerdy having to put the headset on? I mean, like, just fucking strap in like you're in The Matrix and then you're gone for an hour. But it's, it's, it's actually like you would feel pathetic after you pull that headset off.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: You know, and you're like, where am I? Like, It's actually like going to sleep.

Josh: Yeah, that post-headset.

Tommy: You're put into a new world.

Josh: Well, it's almost, and then it becomes like chasing the dragon.

Tommy: The problem is, though, when that starts happening and it gets so good, people want to stay in the realm of, you know, thinking like, you know, in the universe that's been created. The problem is—

Josh: It's Insta-reality.

Tommy: Beyond that is it's like Inception. You won't know which world you're in.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: It'll get that good. And that's the whole thought about this being a simulation. So, the point that it's got, it's evolved, the simulation's evolved that you don't know you're in the simulation.

Josh: I've ordered myself an açaí bowl that's arrived. If we hear a doorbell, can you just go down, George? I don't have to eat it on the show, but—

Tommy: I'm going to call you Mr. A from now on.

Josh: I do love an açaí bowl.

Tommy: And you're, and you wear, in my mind, you wear purple suits.

Josh: Like the mask.

Tommy: George, you're here because we love you, but you're also here because you've got something for us.

George: Yeah. I mean, it's not to the standard of the old Hump Day Replay videos, obviously. It's actually not a video, but this was sent in by Gronk Shayna, who is a great archivist because she actually, you'll remember that when, you know, the Spotify things come up where it's like, oh, I listened to this many.

Tommy: Yes.

George: Yeah. Last year she listened to 18,000 minutes of the show. Oh, so she knows her stuff. And so she sent this in and said, oh, can you play this? It's great. And it'd be good to get your thoughts on it. It's from episode 111.

Josh: If we got to 1,000 episodes of The Daily Talk Show, would you get a tattoo?

Tommy: We're saying what?

Josh: The Daily Talk Show. Where? I don't know. Anywhere.

Tommy: Hmm.

Josh: Nah, because maybe. Man, what? It's 1,000. Like I've done it in a way that it's so far away that you'll say yes. And then it will come to 1,000 episodes. It gives us some content.

Tommy: Okay, I'll get something.

Josh: I'm worried about my acai bowl.

Tommy: No, no, no, put it down. Something tattooed.

Josh: That's not, that's not an exciting piece.

Tommy: I'll get the Daily Talk Show tattooed in my, in my world, in how I want it, if we get to 1,000 episodes. Oh no, that's it, that's it, that's it.

Josh: Tattoo. Sorry to, uh, ruin that with my acai bowl. I was just worried about your acai bowl.

Tommy: Tattoo.

Josh: We did speak about—

Tommy: What did I say there? Was I saying that I would get one?

Josh: If we hit 1,000.

Tommy: In my own— Now we're gonna have to listen to it again. Too distracted. Mr. A, you fucked it.

Josh: I did warn you that it was here.

George: I did.

Josh: And then you decided to play the audio.

Tommy: Georgie.

Josh: When it was there. We'll just wait a few seconds.

Tommy: So, hang on. I did— I can't— I don't know if I said I was getting— Was it on the ground? They just leave it on the ground.

Josh: Texted and said leave it on the ground.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. George, did I say that I would get one or did I say I'd get something?

George: You said you'd get something in your own way or the Daily Talk Show in your own way.

Tommy: So I was just pushing back on the logo.

Josh: Yeah.

George: Yeah.

Josh: So that was before we had the new one that looks great.

Tommy: Yeah. Yeah. Yep.

Josh: Yep. So yeah, what are you thinking?

George: Would you get one?

Tommy: Well, we were talking about this yesterday. It'd be great if you could actually get tattoo artists to come to you, which it doesn't have. Like, there's—

Josh: is that your biggest concern is going to the tattoo place?

Tommy: No, I'd be like, just the convenience. I think we— more people would have tattoos if— but professionals don't necessarily do it because there's, uh, liability.

Josh: Yes.

Tommy: And infection and stuff like that. But I was thinking team bonding, team bonding.

Josh: This is the thing Is what I appreciate with George. George is keen for a tattoo.

Tommy: Yeah, he'd get one.

George: I'd get one.

Tommy: But what would you get?

George: I think just like T-D-T-S on my thigh.

Tommy: On your thigh? My thigh. My nickname is Matthias. There's a lot of attention. I've got big thighs. A lot of people look to my thighs when they look at me.

Josh: T-D-T-S on the thigh.

Tommy: I would probably be, um, I'd probably do a small of your back, your little—

Josh: No, I would do, um, inner wrist.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: In a wrist.

George: Yeah, that's very visible.

Josh: No, not if you're wearing a smartwatch or something.

George: Oh yeah. Jess was a hard no. Yeah, she was disappointing.

Tommy: No, that's fair. That's fair. Look, we're not bullying anyone into getting anything.

George: I reckon it'd be great.

Josh: So how would we— See, this is the thing. I'm not in the mental state to be able to make this decision.

Tommy: Oh, you are. Just how about you get a 9-iron?

Josh: Just a golf club. Oh, golf. Yeah, there's something about—

Tommy: How about you be an absolute little fuckboy and get an RGC, the 2 golf clubs?

Josh: Random golf club. Yeah, I mean, but that's got nothing to do with the show at that point.

Tommy: My point on that was I'd get in my own way, meaning something that would either— it's a homage.

Josh: So what would your homage be?

Tommy: A fidget spinner.

Josh: Would you really?

George: No, I'd never.

Tommy: I'd never. No, the problem is if I haven't even got one for some something else in my life, like for, for Bodhi or Amy or, you know, something to symbolise that. I'd rather get that. But maybe, maybe it is just doing a tattoo in the last couple of weeks is the time. It was all a part of the Daily Talk Show. So then whatever it is, it's a reminder.

Josh: I could do like my knuckles, TDTS, the 4.

George: Yeah, you could do that.

Josh: That would look cool. But then you have to ask, do you do it inwards? So, it's looking in or out?

Tommy: It's always outwards.

Josh: Always outwards. So, like when you're doing a fist, it sort of does that.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: It is a good point, but it would look— Too many people would say, oh, those letters are upside down. Don't know what it says if it's on the, you know, it's optics. This guy who went to jail has self-made.

Josh: Yeah. What does that mean?

Tommy: Yeah. Freelance.

Josh: Freelance is a good one.

Tommy: Good, good. You should have got freelance. Jail time.

Josh: Uh, GB, with you being here, uh, do you have any— looking back, I think it's like we're starting to slowly move into nostalgia and looking back at the show— what is the thing that you— that stands out in the last 3 years for you? Uh, just like personally, or And you can't say the redundancy. It was fresh. That's happened in the last 2 weeks.

George: Yeah, but still, what stands out? Like, from, like, I mean, I don't know. I really liked doing the videos. All the montages were good fun.

Tommy: Yeah.

George: Yeah. And so, yeah, they were great. I'm trying to think.

Tommy: What he's saying is his editing stands out.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, there's so much work that's gone into all of that stuff, right? Like, that's the— most amount of time you've spent on stuff.

George: Yeah, definitely.

Tommy: Learnings? Like, is it the— that you enjoyed the process? Is it—

George: I think just having the creative freedom to be myself and, and make edits, you know, that I found fun to watch, and you guys were just like, yeah, go for it.

Tommy: Yeah, great.

George: That was nice. And we're listening back to some early episodes yesterday, um, and your voices are so You sound so much younger, I reckon.

Tommy: Can you play that audio just one more time? This is just from 111, episode 111.

Josh: If we got to 1,000 episodes of The Daily Talk Show, would you get a tattoo?

Tommy: We're saying what?

Josh: The Daily Talk Show. Where? I don't know, anywhere.

George: Hmm.

Josh: Nah, maybe. Man, what— it's 1,000. Like, I've done it in a way that it's so far away that you'll say yes, and then it will come to 1,000 episodes. It gives us some content.

Tommy: Okay, I'll get something.

Josh: No, that's so dumb.

George: No, no, no.

Tommy: Something.

Josh: No, no, no.

Tommy: That's not it. That's not it. I'll get the Daily Talk Show tattooed in my world, in how I want it.

George: There you go.

Josh: I mean, we didn't— Even the earlier episodes, I think was— GB described it as it sounded like I was always smiling. When I was talking. Yeah, he was saying, he was saying, like, you haven't smiled. Well, that's what he's saying. He's saying, like, you sort of see the, like, stress come through, which, um, I don't know, like, I think there's, uh, I'm more comfortable.

Tommy: Yeah, that's 100%.

Josh: The thing is, it's, um, yeah, it's a comfortable thing around just coming on. And even think about, like, I don't know whether it makes for a good podcast or not, but just the ability just to be, just to say exactly what you're thinking. It's not always the most broadcast professional thing. Like me getting pissed off about my açaí bowl just then, just real, like there'd be a lot of content directors saying, Josh, you fucked that whole, that whole bit. But there is something fun also about just being able to fucking pull from things and talk and just be a bit sort of Outrageous.

Tommy: There is, um, there's hints in that audio of you from the clip of you and your mum walks in, like that same twin.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, sure.

Tommy: You know, like there's something in that, and my voice sounds like the old me. It's weird, but you're right. It's like the comfortable thing. It's like you're not trying to put on some fucking voice, which I don't think you do it from, you know, it's not a conscious thought. It's like Hamish Blake sounding British in the early, like, he might have been, he influenced by Ricky Gervais back then or something. Like, he might have been listening to a lot of a comedian.

Josh: I don't think Ricky Gervais would have been around then, would he?

Tommy: What do you mean?

Josh: Ricky Gervais?

Tommy: Ricky Gervais has been around for— Really? Ricky had like one of the first podcasts. Did you know that?

Josh: 2000 and— I feel like, so, Ricky Gervais became—

Tommy: The Office.

Josh: When was The Office made?

Tommy: But before that, the pod—

Josh: Yeah. So, it would have been right on that time, I guess.

Tommy: Ricky Gervais.

Josh: Ricky Gervais. I feel like The Office would have been, what, 2000 and— 2008. I remember 2010 though.

Tommy: The Ricky Gervais Show was a podcast very, a very long time ago, and Rhys Mitchell got me onto that. This is, I didn't even, it's funny, I didn't even register the thought of what a podcast is. It was just, I was listening to audio.

Josh: But when, when did the Ricky, because I always think like Ricky Gervais started later in life.

Tommy: The Ricky Gervais Show aired 2010. Yeah.

Josh: That was The Office. Like Hamish Andy, 2004, 2005.

Tommy: Ricky Gervais' The Office, 2001.

George: Really?

Tommy: Yeah. The Office started in 2001. But I always found Hamish's comedy similar to Ricky, like at his time, like the timing and—

Josh: So, the— Yeah, the US one came after, didn't it?

Tommy: The US.

Josh: I don't even know. US Office.

Tommy: It went just as a US Office.

Josh: I love the US. I actually watch more of the US Office than I have—

Tommy: But I think if you're a fan of Ricky and then he's the guy that made it and then actually did the— I just consume that.

Josh: So, the US Office was '05.

Tommy: And so, that's '01. Yeah, it's very old. Ricky's been killing it, baby.

Josh: Isn't it crazy? Because you think about like, I remember hearing he started later in life.

Tommy: Dude, he didn't make it until late 40s, I think.

George: 38, I reckon.

Josh: Yeah, it can't be late 40s because he'd be like, what? In his 50s now. How old is Ricky?

Tommy: Dude, Ricky Gervais is 59.

Josh: Yeah, no, but if you were saying late 40s.

Tommy: Yeah, 2001. No. So, yeah, late 30s breaks and then he's the most famous he is now and he's nearly 60. So, that's like, yeah, that's 20 years. So, he's been around 20. What was 2001? How long ago was that? 20 years ago. And so, The Office was his break. And then fucking Skyball.

Josh: What year were you?

Tommy: Skyball. Skyball.

Josh: What year were you born, JB?

George: '93.

Josh: '93. What do you remember of Y2K?

George: Nothing. Really? Completely. All I remember, went to it.

Tommy: 7.

George: Yeah, I was 7. I went to a New Year's Eve party and I was dressed as mini me.

Josh: Oh, that's funny. And so you'd seen Austin Powers?

Tommy: You can't see, but he's doing the little thing.

George: So you'd seen Austin Powers?

Josh: I remember seeing Austin Towers. It was a huge thing.

George: Yeah, my brother, my brother was Dr. Evil and I was mini me. We had the bald—

Josh: Oh, that's fun.

George: Yeah, spray-painted silver suits.

Josh: But the thing with, um, all of that stuff is like, um, the, the Y2K thing. Like, I, I remember looking outside waiting for the planes to fall, fall, because remember, that's what they thought was going to happen at midnight. The dates were all going to be fucked, the clocks. And so planes were going to fall out of the sky.

George: Were they talking about this on the news?

Josh: Yeah. Yeah, it was huge.

Tommy: It was huge.

Josh: It was a massive deal. I saw a—

Tommy: Computers were going to stop. I saw— Missiles were going to fire.

Josh: James Altucher did a— This is very sort of memey content, but he did it like a meme where he showed all of the different things that have happened in the world. Uh, like, like Y2K or things like that. I think it's just to give some perspective, even though I think it's very fucked up, everything that's happening now. Um, and it's like every, every decade there's been some sort of global thing where we thought the world's ending.

Tommy: Yeah, Y2K, September 11th, Afghanistan War, Vietnam. It's going way back.

Josh: Here you go. Here he is.

Tommy: The financial crisis.

Josh: Yeah, so he said, think GFC, 1960s, no more— I'm sorry, fucking thanks for being here, uh, 1960s, no more oil in 10 years. 1970s, another ice age in 10 years. 1980s, acid rain will destroy all crops in 10 years. 1990s, the ozone layer will be destroyed in 10 years. 2000s, ice flows will be gone in 10 years, whatever that is. 2000s, Y2K will be— will destroy everything. 2001, anthrax will kill us all. 2002, West Nile virus will kill us all. 2003, SARS will kill us all. 2005, bird flu will kill us all. 2006, E. coli will kill us all. 2008, the financial crash will kill us all. 2009, swine flu will kill us all. 2012, the Mayan, the Mayan, Mayan, Mayan calendar will end.

Tommy: They predict that.

Josh: We will all die. 2013, North Korea will start the Third World War. We will all die. 2014, Ebola will kill us all. 2015, ISIS will kill us all. And it goes on.

George: Jesus.

Tommy: The Mayans got it wrong. 2012 was a great year.

Josh: It was a great year.

Tommy: It was a fucking great year.

George: What were you doing in 2012? 2012 was a good year for me. I was just in Byron. I was 19.

Josh: Started at SAE, was that what?

Tommy: Yeah, before all the blow-ins.

George: Actually, no, it was my gap year. I think I finished because I finished in 2011.

Josh: What'd you do for your gap year?

George: Just, just not much. Just partied. Really?

Tommy: Down at Cheeky Monkeys. What is this called?

George: You hate locals, don't go to Cheeky Monkeys.

Tommy: Don't they? Where do they go?

Josh: Rum and fistfights is what.

George: Yeah, the, um, the La La's was open back then. That was a good club.

Tommy: The pub in Byron, was that?

George: Beach Hotel. Yeah. Yeah.

Tommy: Was that good? Would locals go there?

George: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Tommy: Any pubs that locals wouldn't go to outside of?

Josh: Cheeky Monkey.

Tommy: Yeah. That's like a bar.

George: Yeah. I don't know. Nah.

Josh: What's like 3 local tips for Byron? Just anything.

Tommy: If you're flying to Byron right now, we have a local—

George: Here's the thing. I haven't lived there for 5 years.

Josh: Yeah.

George: And I was only there for 5 years. So, like, calling myself a local is a bit disgusting.

Tommy: Your mum has a bookshop there. If you're Family member has a business there, you're a local because you're connected to a lot of locals. So, your mum knows a lot of people.

Josh: Yeah.

George: Well, 3 local things to do. All right.

Josh: But they need to be non-touristy. Like, if you want to—

Tommy: Walk to the lighthouse.

Josh: Yeah. If you want to live like a local, what are 3 things you can do?

George: Get oysters from the local fish shop and go and eat them on the beach.

Tommy: Okay.

Josh: That's a local thing to do?

George: That's probably— Maybe. Okay. Go and eat them at home.

Tommy: To live like a local is pretty boring.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, go to the supermarket shops and go to the supermarket and buy toothpaste and toilet paper.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, be annoyed that it's Sunday and you're gonna go to work on Monday. Yeah, that's like when you're at home.

Josh: Yeah, yeah. What else?

Tommy: What else?

George: Ocean swim. Swim from the pass all the way across to the wreck.

Josh: Tourists aren't doing that?

George: No, not really.

Tommy: Without getting bitten by a shark.

George: Yeah, yeah, I've never done it.

Tommy: Tourists get bitten by sharks.

Josh: Yeah, yeah.

George: And third? Third, third, go find a waterfall somewhere in the hills.

Josh: Yeah. Oh, that's nice. And fourth, put the bins out.

Tommy: Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Because it's what night's bin night for your mum?

George: Oh, couldn't tell you.

Josh: Friday? I did the Daily Talk Show.

Tommy: Now he's a local. You know what? He's definitely not a local.

Josh: I'm actually going to get George's mum's bin night tattooed. Tattooed.

Tommy: Yeah.

George: You took the bins out last night.

Josh: I did.

George: Yeah.

Josh: I took a photo. That's right.

George: Yeah.

Josh: Not a hero.

Tommy: Segue, dude.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Yeah. I fucking lobbed it up for you.

Josh: But yeah. Do we have— We got some nice messages. We've got to go through them all. Trev—

Tommy: Do we?

Josh: Trev— Well, Trev Long sent a great one. The thing is that it's so— It's so detailed that it will take a little bit to go through.

Tommy: I've got one from Krista. Christabel, uh, on Insta, this has come through. Hey team, just wanted to say congrats on your awesome run. I discovered you boys at the start of 2020 through Shameless and immediately subscribed. Without wanting to sound dramatic, your podcast became a real highlight of my daily routine during Melbourne lockdown, and now in 2021, you've been the soundtrack to my commute every day. Thank you for sharing so much of yourselves, and best of wishes for your next adventure.

Josh: Imagine, uh, Some people have, you know, Fleetwood Mac as their soundtrack. Some have Billie Eilish or, you know.

Tommy: Some have Ben Shapiro.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: P-word. A nice one from, yeah, Chris.

Tommy: Chris Scott.

Josh: Lads. No, no. What's your one? You read your one first.

Tommy: That's exactly it.

Josh: Is it? Is it? Oh, you've clicked through to his.

Tommy: Lads, celebrate for the next couple of weeks. Longtime podcaster from near the beginning. Fuck, that's an effort. Love that you're both ending on your terms. That's it. Epic run. You could have stopped it at 14, to be honest.

Josh: How do you know he's Christian? His name's Christian.

George: Chris Scott.

Josh: Chris Scott. Yeah.

Tommy: What did I say?

Josh: You said Christian.

Tommy: Did I?

Josh: Yeah, that's why I thought it was a different one. Um, anyway, bogged down. Uh, thanks everyone for listening. hi@thedailytalkshow.com if you want to send us an email. Would love to hear from you. Yeah. Yeah, be good. Like, what do you want to hear for the, you know, the next—

Tommy: Next, how many?

Josh: How long? Not long. 6 eps? 7 eps. 7.

Tommy: 7 eps.

Josh: Your torch is on. That's a real problem. They need to fix up with the iPhones.

Tommy: Yeah, I know.

Josh: Just torches turning on all the time.

Tommy: Is it too much to tell people, though? Like, should you just— Should it be a rule between everybody? No one tell anyone that their torch is on.

Josh: Actually, hi@thedailytalkshow.com. Have you completely ruined your battery? Have you gone from 100 to 0% based on, based on leaving your torch on all day?

Tommy: I have had it in my pocket on, and the only reason I've worked out is because I'm like, ow, oh, you got hot. Yeah, the heat on my thumb. Like, oh, what's that? Pull it out.

Josh: I'm like, that's not good. Fuck, the 10,000 lumens would kill you. Um, all right, have a good one, guys. We'll, uh, we'll see you tomorrow.

George: See you guys.
