Out both ends

Tommy: Wait a minute! Crossface, the Daily Talk Show, a conversation sometimes worth recording with Josh Janson and Tommy Jackett.

Josh: It's a Daily Talk Show, everyone. Episode 118.

Tommy: TJ, mate, it's 6 AM in Melbourne, and where the fuck are you?

Josh: I'm currently in London and it is 9:04 PM.

Tommy: Mate, it's still bright.

Josh: Yeah, that's what I was confused about when we were getting the Uber to the Airbnb. Yeah, I was asking the guy, when does it get dark? It doesn't get dark until after 9 o'clock and it's been like 30 degrees today.

Unknown: Wow.

Tommy: That's, that's rare for London. I know, I've had such shit weather in London. But how was your flight? Fuck, if anyone's been watching and seeing a few little, uh, Insta stories, um, they would have seen you in luxury.

Josh: Yeah, it was a, um, so we used points to— I feel like I have to preface it anytime you're flying business class, uh, first class, you need to preface it with the fact that you think rich people do that, like —Just to say you're not rich. Yeah, I think that, man, there were some interesting people who were doing pretty well. Bree is— This is the first time we've got Bree is probably half a metre away from me watching live. And you can see her in the video. To explain the sort of technology we're using, it's sort of like Skype on steroids. You can see me. I can see you. You're in your car. It's still pitch black.. But no, so we went from Melbourne to Singapore, Singapore to London. In the Singapore first class from Melbourne to Singapore and then Singapore to London, it's what they call their suites, which, yeah, it's sort of like—

Tommy: It's a double bed, mate, on an aeroplane. Yeah, it was pretty crazy. I've told a few people that you were flying first. Yeah. And told them that, no, you used points to do it. And most of the people have been like, fuck me, how many points did he have? So, like, how many points do you actually have to have to do this shit?

Josh: Uh, it was like 350,000 points, so it's a lot of points. But, um, we probably could have done— because, yeah, yeah, if you look at it that way, we could have done a bunch of economy flights. But, um, my thought behind it is reward tickets are quite hard to come by with a lot of airlines. So, actually trying to redeem the flights is pretty hard. But the— You're getting the most amount of value if you actually book first class or business. Using it for economy isn't that great when you can like fly to, you know, Europe or, you know, LA for super cheap at the moment.

Tommy: How many calories did you consume whilst in the air?

Josh: It's an embarrassingly amount. Like, you'd think that they would have some sort of, uh, they would be doing calorie counting for you, but there's literally like, there was, I think for lunch, I sent you, did I send you the photos or was it too big of a file to go on aeroplane Wi-Fi?

Tommy: No, I got it. I was disappointed that they only gave you 100 megabytes of Wi-Fi.

Josh: Yeah, that was shit. The Wi-Fi was annoying, but probably a good thing because I don't need to be Spending my whole time on a flight on Instagram.

Tommy: But— You sent me some lamb shanks that you had.

Josh: Yeah, the lamb shank wasn't the highlight, but we had like, yeah, just so much ridiculous food. But probably the— I want to talk about the shitty bits in the sense of not the first class shitty bits, but just the shit that happens when you travel. Just because I realise that people probably think I'm a piece of shit. If you're listening and you— Well, if people are listening in their car, there's nothing more annoying than JJ in London right now talking about his first class flights, which were really good. But I don't think it's— Having done business class, having done premium economy, I don't reckon like there's not enough of a difference. Well, the difference you see is everyone's a little bit nicer to you. Like you have— Yeah. You know, rather than waiting for the toilet, they'll say, "Oh, Mr. Jansen, the toilet's unavailable, but we'll let you know." And they'll come and get you and just shit like that, which is—

Tommy: Tap on the shoulder, time to poo now.

Josh: Time to poo. That's the title of this episode. But time to poo. But no, the problem that we had was when you—

Tommy: Just before you go on, you do realise that people in their car are probably going to be more annoyed that you're focusing on the negative bits of flying first class. No, well, it's just— Because most people never fucking fly first class.

Josh: It's not specifically the flight, it was more just the clusterfuck that can be travel. So, we arrived in Singapore, we had a 16-hour layover. I think it was 16 hours, it was like 4, we arrived at 4:00 PM and our flight was at 9:00 AM. And so, we had an idea of going to a hotel But we were booking, we were looking at the flights while we were on the plane and they were—

Tommy: The accommodation.

Josh: Yeah, the accommodation. And it wasn't that cheap. It was like if you wanted to be close to the airport, it was going to be like close to $300, which for, I don't know, with a long trip—

Tommy: Peasants flying first class.

Josh: I know, exactly. People might think—

Tommy: The peasants who have infiltrated first class.

Josh: Well, they must have thought it was so weird because like I was asking the flight attendant, about where to stay. And obviously, like, I'd probably set them up with an unrealistic expectation of, you know, our sort of style, but we would have been happy with an Ibis. But anyway, so we decided that we'll just sort it out when we landed. Specifically, on the— they had an advertisement for a free tour that you can do with Singapore Airlines if you're flying with them. Basically, if you've got a layover, you can spend a couple of hours and they'll take you out on a bus. Which sounded sick, right? Sick. So, we got to the— We landed, went to get our bags, and we waited and waited and it didn't come around. And this is how much of an amateur I am. I fucking went around the world, 34 flights, and I still can't get it right. But on the flight that we were on, even though it was a layover, even though like we were staying overnight, They cheque the bags all the way through to London. But then the thing is, is that we only have the clothes that we're wearing. Like, we didn't bring extra clothes in our carry-on. We just had them as checked. So, that was the first stuff up. Lucky you didn't shit yourself. Yeah. Have you done that though before? Would you assume that it was going to be checked or like that you're going to be able to get access to your checked bag?

Tommy: Not with that long of a layover. I'd assume that they—

Josh: That you would get your bags. Yeah. Yeah.

Tommy: But first class, the whole service is that they— you shouldn't see your bags. You should just have the least amount of effort applied. Well, so that's what first class is.

Josh: Yeah. But I think anyway, I think economy, the same thing would have happened. But anyway, we ended up going— we ended up deciding, okay, we'll just go out and find that bus. Right. So, we go through customs, get our stamp, you know, passport stamped, go to the information desk and say, hey, whereabouts is that bus? And he says, it's actually in before you go through immigration. And if you've gone through, you can't go.

Tommy: Fuck off. So, why couldn't you go back through?

Josh: Can't you just line up? Well, so, this was the thing. He was, and we probably could have pushed back, but what we ended up doing was We went through, we went out of the airport. I don't even know if we actually didn't go outside. We stayed in but went up a lift to get into departures because we were in arrivals, went into departures, went through security again, cleared immigration. But at that point, Bree was— We haven't even spoken about Bree's food poisoning. We mentioned it on last episode, but Bree was still feeling shit house. So, the big thing with flying first class, which my mate Marshy, who we've got to get on because Marshy is like a points hacker, he's amazing at all of this stuff. And he was telling me one of the good things about flying with on the suites is you get what's known as access to the private room. So, the private room is like basically we got this invitation with our boarding pass. When we left Melbourne, and they said you can use this in Singapore. And you go to the lounge and then they walk you past the first lounge, then the business lounge, then the first class lounge, and then there's the private room. And they have like a chef that's cooking all the time with like a menu and all that sort of thing. But what I thought, it said the 26th, sorry, the 27th that would have access to it, but this was the 26th. Because we obviously was— it was still the same day. It wasn't the next morning, but they let us in. And so, we like mooched it so bad. Like normally you would think someone would be in a lounge or whatever, or like the private room for maybe 3, 4 hours, 5 hours. We were there for 16 hours. Just Bree was— Yeah, go on.

Tommy: Did you become friends with the people who were there?

Josh: No, they were all quirky characters. So, like, we felt a little bit out of our depth. But there's this American dude. He was like— What? Bree shaking her head. Why are you shaking your head? No. Well, I guess we weren't out of our depth because of the out of the depth. Oh, yeah. They were just normal people. But there was—

Unknown: So, you were like on board with the Monopoly man? We weren't.

Josh: No, we weren't on board with the Monopoly man. We can confirm we weren't. But no. What does that mean? I don't fucking know. She made like someone with a top hat.

Tommy: Who was on board with the Monopoly?

Josh: Like, as in there wasn't a man with a top hat in there. Like, they were real people. No, but they were just— There was this one guy who was eating and he was like, everyone speaks loud. Like, the one thing with lounges is everyone, all the older people are on FaceTime. They haven't worked out that you can use headphones. And they're all talking really loud and you've got like, you've got half a dozen people who are all doing it, like they're eating their posh food. And there's one guy and he said, Oliver, he's talking to his kid, Oliver, Oliver, he's American. Oliver, I can't see you, Oliver. I shouldn't do the voice. And then he's like, he was like, oh, do you think he's mad with me? Oliver, I'm only gone for a week. Oliver, I'm going to buy you some clothes while I'm away. Oliver, Oliver. Like, it was just the class. He was so insecure, but it was just amazing that he was just like straight away going to, he's going to buy his kids clothes.

Tommy: So I would have been over, I would have been over there talking to him. Did you talk to any other people within the lounge?

Josh: No, no, no, no. So Bree was not there. Missed opportunity, mate.

Tommy: Business, you know, mingling, networking.

Josh: I don't know. There seemed like there was some, I mean, we'll just tell it like telling storeys in our head on what all these people were doing. Who they were, why that, you know, I love doing that.

Tommy: And so what's the rules? Can you actually milk it for a 16-hour layover?

Josh: Yeah, well, so we, so yeah, you arrive, you get a menu. You were telling me, like, I was sending you some links or some photos of the menu when we're on the plane, and you're saying that there was some fancy booze there, and we actually ended up on the Dom Pérignon. Yeah, well, when we were on the the flight from Singapore to London, we— I ended up drinking a fair bit. And like, I don't— for people who don't know, I don't normally drink. But no, I had— I would have had like 2 glasses of white wine and 2 glasses of red.

Tommy: Was it the Krug?

Josh: I just asked for like the nice one. I was just like, because you could tell that they were really wanting us to have that experience. Like when we're like, "Oh, I'm not sure." They're like, "Have it, have it." like really pushing it on us. But no, so the menu, you can just pick from the menu whenever you want when you're in the private room. And— But Bree was knocked out because she was— because she had her food poisoning. She was just sort of coming off it. She hadn't— She didn't vomit after leaving Melbourne, which was great. But we went to a pharmacy and she got some medication and just knocked her out. She went straight to sleep. So, I was just there with her knocked out and I just was— eating, just like ordering stuff and just like they had little chockies and stuff in there, like all this really nice sweet food.

Tommy: So just, just to touch on it, Russ Keys emailed through and said, have you ruled out pregnancy with Bree? Yeah, Bree, we can rule out pregnancy.

Unknown: Can we rule out pregnancy? Yes, 100% you can.

Josh: Yeah, great.

Tommy: And can we confirm that that's not the Singaporean drugs that were given to you to stop the gastro that was actually a baby? No, that's not the case.

Josh: I think like, do you shit yourself when you're pregnant as well? Not that Brooke was shitting herself, but like, do you get, do you get a sore tummy as well? I don't know, mate.

Tommy: You could just perpetually sick if you've got, um, morning sickness, just constantly feeling horrible. It would be like, I don't know, I saw a woman recently that I know, she has been vomiting for 12 weeks from morning sickness. So Safe to say it's not.

Josh: So, Russ, she's not pregnant. Yeah, not pregnant. We can— the rumor, the daily talk show rumour mill has been going crazy on that one, I'm sure. But no, so I was eating so much. But yeah, I don't know. I'm just— I'm glad to be on because it was probably 40-something hours of just transit.

Tommy: Luxury. But so you've touched down now. I can see in the background there's like, is that a stuffed bird? Have you touched that bird?

Josh: I don't know if it's a stuffed bird. Yeah, I think it might be a stuffed bird.

Tommy: Yeah. So you're in an Airbnb in London. Whereabouts in London?

Josh: Whereabouts in London are we, Bri? We're East London. East London. It's been described as like the Fitzroy. Near where? Hackney. We're near Hackney. Lovely.

Tommy: And so what's the experience like? You rock up. Yeah. So, when do you meet Geoff?

Josh: Yeah. No. So, yeah, John is our Airbnb guy, but we— Close. I nearly got it. You did nearly get it. But no, we arrived in Heathrow, really easy to clear. I don't know what it is about Heathrow. I feel like I have a meltdown every— Like it's sort of a rite of passage whenever I go to Heathrow, I have a slight meltdown. I think that it's because the— I'm always going to London when it's a, when there's like a heat wave. So, that's one thing. It's always the heat wave and it's also always trying to get my SIM card working. I remember one—

Tommy: I saw a friend in Heathrow yesterday take a photo and he just wrote on it, fuck Heathrow. And it was the exit, the immigration, whatever it is.

Josh: Really? Do you know what happened to him? Like it was just a busy You got through, you got through, but it was just crazy busy. Well, we were lucky because we had the fast track. Last time I'll mention our luxury, but it was— It took us 2 minutes.

Tommy: And Josh was going through the fast track while eating a steak.

Josh: So, we—

Tommy: On a segue.

Josh: I was actually— What you do get to a point, because the older people, like the one thing that first class does do is all of a sudden your expectations go through the roof. So, I was sort of, there's a part of me that was seeing people getting wheelchaired off the plane, like from first class, like older people, they were getting like the full treatment wheelchair. And there was a part of me which was waiting for my one to rock up so I can sit down. But the, yeah, no, so getting the SIM card, I don't know what it is, but last time, a few times ago when I was with my mate, Naysan, I had a slight meltdown on the rental car bus. You know, you get a bus to get the rental cars. I remember I was just like, I can't remember what I said, but I just remember swearing and there was kids there and I was embarrassed at my actions. But anyway, it wasn't that much of a meltdown, was it, Bri? How do you describe what I was like at the airport?

Unknown: I can't, there's no words. No words.

Josh: I know, I just literally, it's not that bad. I just get a sweaty back and I just maybe a bit short.

Unknown: Yeah, a bit short, snappy, and you go red and you just focus, like you just stare at your phone and you sort of get in a, you just zone out, I suppose is the word.

Josh: Yeah. What do you like, TJ, when you travel? Do you have meltdowns?

Tommy: I have had meltdowns, but nah. I'm okay. I just, my problem is when I've got bags to carry, it makes me fucking, so I get really annoyed when I'm uncomfortably walking with lots of bags. Yeah.

Josh: Well, we obviously had the guy with the golf cart carrying it. No, we didn't, to be clear, we were carrying the bags.

Tommy: Yeah. And so there is an anxiety. I think if you were to fly, I think about if I could, if flying first class. Is it this? Because I can confirm now that I have a friend that's done it. Do you— is it— is that anxiety of carrying anything or like having to get through or waiting, is that all gone? Because I think that would fix it for me.

Josh: No, I think like they're pretty— they're really good. Singapore Airlines were like amazing, but there's still definitely, um, you don't get told everything. So we— it would have been nice to know about, hey, I think what I was probably expecting is they would have asked, okay, where are you going from here or something like, I don't know, like we arrived in Singapore and it was, we sort of were left to our own devices, which I feel like what I was expecting was for them to communicate like, here's where you go or this is the bus type of option. But—

Tommy: Interesting. And so, what time did you arrive at the house where you are now?

Josh: So, we arrived only an hour ago. So, we arrived at— It would have been— What's the time now? So, yeah, we would have arrived around 8 PM.

Tommy: Can I have a guess how the conversation went with John?

Josh: We haven't even met John yet. Oh, you haven't? No. So, John sent us an Airbnb message. He had something come up, so he left the key. I don't know what he called it, but it was somewhere on the car and he used some car terminology. Was it a— It wasn't the wheel, it was near the wheel.

Tommy: The bumper bar.

Josh: I don't know what it was, but he was— It took us a little while to find it on the car. It was just—

Tommy: Can I see an English flag out the window of where you are?

Josh: I know, I think you can see it's like a— Stars. It's, yeah, it's the— I think it's the European Union, maybe. And so, John's very passionate about the the whole Brexit thing, as in he hates all the shit that's happening with Brexit. He obviously wants them to stay in the European Union. So, I guess that's a way that you can show your support, which is interesting.

Tommy: Well, there's your first bit of gear with him, first conversation. Yeah. But how long— Did you find the Wi-Fi?

Josh: How did you get the Wi-Fi password? The Wi-Fi is great. He gives us a manual with all of the details, which is nice and handy. But the thing is, man, it's the London just isn't set up for this heat. So, it's like, it is very, very hot right now. It shits itself.

Tommy: Are you in a jumper?

Josh: No, I'm in a t-shirt. The problem was that I was in a jumper for a long time. Bree's just taking, Bree, what are you taking a picture of?

Unknown: Perfume that we got on the flight. I'm trying to give it to a friend.

Josh: So, Bree—

Tommy: Oh, so they gave you perfume on the first class flight?

Josh: Yeah, so that's one thing that you do get is you get like these, you get like a candle and perfume and all of that sort of stuff. And so, you wear pyjamas, like I put pyjamas on straight away when I got there.

Tommy: Can you not be one of the guys that wears the pyjamas around? Is it your rebrand?

Josh: No. Well, no, I don't think so.

Tommy: You've done a rebrand? Getting the full use of your first-class experience.

Josh: Well, I've got the— It's not like the classic, because I feel like when you think about the people that wear it, they wear the Qantas ones, which are very obvious. These feel like they're a little bit subtle, but, um, they would be good probably winter attire. You wouldn't want to wear them in the summer. But, um, yeah, I mean, are you missing—

Tommy: mate, it's been 48 hours and I've had updates. Nah, it's actually really fucking depressing seeing your mate, uh, going through something like this.

Josh: Well, that's why I feel like the funny thing is it's like really— it is really, really enjoyable, but I think What people forget is you still, even in the best situations, little things happen and you just need to like get perspective straight away and like revert to gratitude. Because you can be like, "Wait, hang on, how am I getting upset that my SIM card's not working?" Like, no joke, the reason I was getting all hot was because I was— they said that you get a bonus 10 gig of data and I only had 3 gig and the guy wasn't being very helpful. I was just like—

Tommy: Well, you see how rich people can be out of touch. Yeah. Because it, yeah, it's just the same. The same behaviour will translate throughout. Doesn't just mean that you'll be like, oh, so thankful for once you have everything.

Josh: Well, some people are just used to it, right? Like there was a, like they're very good at getting drinks and stuff like that. But people like the guy who was saying, Oliver, Oliver, he was, he sat down and said, could I get 2 slices of lime in sparkling water, please? I just thought that that was such a— Oh my God. It was such a specific thing to ask. Bree's nodding her head. What are you— What were you going to say?

Unknown: And then I don't know if you were there, but he then also asked if he could have a small sample of almond milk and soy milk to take aboard the flight. Wow. So, he said this is particular requirements, but I think he had issues with dairy. That's why. Maybe. Yeah, he did.

Josh: I did hear him asking for soy milk.

Tommy: There's a lot of people. There's a lot of people have issues with dairy. Nice. Well, yeah.

Josh: So, I think that, I mean, that is definitely the thing that is nice is that there are people who are, if you have, like, they were so nice to Bree. Bree, talk about what was your experience like having food poisoning? Talk us through beat by beat from Melbourne to when it was all over for you.

Unknown: So, from when I was completely vomiting and everything?

Josh: Yeah, I'm going to put my headphones on. So, Tommy, I'm going to put the headphones on Bri so she can hear Tommy. And so, Tommy, feel free to ask Bri questions or anything like that.

Tommy: But so, Bri— Thank God Josh is gone. Thank God it's you and me now, Bri. How are you, babe?

Unknown: Yes, feeling much better now.

Tommy: You look much better. Josh sent me a photo and I said that looked like Amy the whole entire honeymoon that we were on. You look so sick.

Unknown: I was so sick. So from, it was Monday, was it Monday night? It was Monday night, wasn't it? I was having dinner at my dad's place and all of a sudden I just started to feel really sick and then just started vomiting like terribly. And so that day all I'd pretty much had was a banana smoothie and then I had a soba noodle salad, which I basically like shoved down my throat within 5 minutes. And I thought—

Tommy: So you reckon it was that?

Unknown: Well, I thought maybe it's because I ate so quickly and that's why I was feeling that way, but I don't think so. So anyway, from there I then had to go from my dad's, which is in Berwick. So that was like, what, 30 minutes from our house where we're staying. And then I also had to drop my car in Pakenham at my mum's. So I was already vomiting and sick and I had to drive to my mum's house in Pakenham to drop our car because that's where we were keeping our car while we're away. Got to my mum's—

Tommy: I just want to vomit I just want to vomit for having to do that. Oh, having to do what you had to do.

Unknown: It was so bad. And then my poor mum, like, I got to her house. This is like the last time I'm seeing my mum before we're going away. And I just walked through the door. I was like, I have to go to the toilet. And just like, oh no, that poor thing. And then left her house. And then dad came with me. My dad drove me back in his car to the place we were staying at so that I could leave my car there., and then got home and was just vomiting and just terrible. And then by that point, I hadn't even called and told Josh I was feeling unwell because I just felt so shit. And then basically I was supposed to pack that night. I'd sort of laid everything out on the bed and just couldn't do it. Was just absolutely vomiting the whole time, just didn't stop. So it went from a pack for you? No, no, he just sort of said, oh, what do you want me to do? Is there anything I can do? Can I help you? No, I'm saying like he after if you packed for me. He couldn't pack for me, really.

Josh: I did offer to, like, I went and got like a paper towel to clean up Bree's vomit.

Unknown: Yeah, yeah, no, he did. I know there was a point where I vomited and I was in the bathroom and he sort of kept trying to come in. I said, do not come in here, 'cause I just didn't want him to see me. And then he still came in and then I had vomited on the floor, which was disgusting. It was just a real point.

Josh: 'Cause she was going to the toilet, 'cause it was coming out both ends. So she's sitting on the toilet and she vomited. Thank you, yes.

Unknown: So I was like, it's better to go that way. And so he came in and then I was trying to clean up the vomit from the floor. To your listeners, I am so sorry, 'cause this is, you should put some sort of warning at the beginning of this. And so then Josh cleaned up my vomit, which was just, It was so romantic and disgusting at the same time. I really, really appreciated it.

Tommy: So my concern was that it was not food poisoning because I've actually spoken to doctors and they say that you can't tell other than how long it lasts for. Sometimes you actually don't know whether it is food poisoning or gastro because it can be like a 24-hour bug or it could just be food poisoning, but they can't tell.

Unknown: Yeah, well, I still don't know what it was because I was pretty much vomiting up until about, I think, 5 AM the next morning. Morning, um, and I'd just gone to bed. Like, I gave up on packing, got up at 3:30 in the morning to pack, um, and then after that I sort of felt okay. But I just was nauseous pretty much the whole time. Couldn't eat on the first flight.

Tommy: Well, Josh has been, um, going from both ends, but it's just because he ate himself stupid on the first class flight. Yeah, he did, he did.

Josh: I haven't been— the problem, actually, one thing about all of this food, you eat all of this food enough to both of us, which was good. Not only do— but the other problem was that there's not much fibre. So, I've eaten all this food and I've taken one like tiny little shit. So, it's all just sitting in me. It's disgusting.

Tommy: No, it's because of flying. Flying makes you constipated.

Unknown: Oh, yeah, that makes sense. But that was so good aboard the Singapore Airlines flight. Like I was worried to tell them that I was feeling unwell because I thought maybe they were going to think I was contagious or something. Um, but they sort of kept asking me if I wanted to eat, and I ended up telling the air hostess that I felt really unwell. And she was just like, she got me a hot cup of water, she got me tea, she's like straight away got me a blanket. And then she was like, oh, I can get you some medication. Like, they were so lovely, like pretty much tucked me in.

Josh: They were feeling her head like temperature.

Unknown: Yeah, they kept coming over feeling my feet. They're like, oh, you've got a fever. Like, so lovely because I got the shakes, like I was shivering and stuff. Um,, and I kept going into these things where I was like freezing, um, and they were so— yeah, it was awful. And they were so lovely, like I wanted to hug her at the end. I almost felt like I had a mum on board. It was so nice. And it was the same when we got to the lounge. They were so lovely. It was— a few people have said to me, oh, what a shame and a waste of first class. But in a way I'm like, well, if I'm gonna be sick, like it's a good place to be sick because they really just looked after me, which was really nice.

Tommy: Yeah, we justify it to ourselves. We said when we spent $20,000 on our honeymoon and Amy was sick the whole time, we said, well, would rather be sick while overseas and in Greece on an island versus being sick at home in Melbourne in the cold winter. Yeah, well, that's— we make it work for us. You make it work.

Unknown: And I got to enjoy the second leg of the flight. To its full by having all the food and all that and had a couple of wines with Josh. So, that was good.

Tommy: Ooh la la.

Unknown: I know, how fancy. There we go, all right.

Josh: There's Bree's story.

Unknown: Thanks, babe, here you go.

Josh: I'm just putting the headphones back on. So, yeah, it was a great experience. Oh, before we go, one thing that is always awkward is people asking about whether we're married or not. And I just like—

Unknown: You went bright red, so red when they were asking him if I was his wife.

Josh: Because the reason that I went red was because they didn't say, they didn't say, "Are you married?" They said, "You're married." And I was like, "Okay." So, it put me in this position where he sort of said, "How long have you been together for?" And I was like, "10 years." Like, married for 10 years. And I didn't know that, you know, like in Dubai, you have to be married to be in a hotel room. See your wife? Yeah, exactly. No, well, you have to be married to be in a hotel room with someone of the opposite sex. It's like, it's a law. So, if you go to Dubai, you can't be just boyfriend and girlfriend. It's always husband and wife. And so, when in Singapore, when we were on the flight and he was doing that whole like, oh, the married thing. Oh, yeah, of course you're married. I didn't know whether it was some legal requirement, so I was going with it and I was like fogging up, like my glasses were all fogged up. And then at the end of the fight, he said, "Oh, I just found out that you guys aren't married." I was just like, "Yeah." He was, "I'm so sorry." Yeah, it was a big confusion.

Tommy: Oh, no. See, this is what you own it from the start, Josh, because then it makes it more authentic.

Josh: Oh, yeah, we are basically, like we are like everything but the wedding. Oh, are you? Yeah, all right.

Tommy: And the certificate and the actual legal binding of the relationship.

Josh: Okay. All right. Settle down.

Tommy: It's the day of the podcast. Stickers are going out tomorrow. Amazing, man.

Josh: I saw the— I just had a quick squiz at the inbox. There was a bunch of people who asked for them. So, thank you for organising that.

Tommy: So, what do you reckon? 4 or 5 stickers each? 4 or 6? I reckon 1 or 5.

Josh: I think you do, I think you do, I think you do 5, uh, do 5 stickers each. Uh, but the— what I was gonna say is it would be nice for you to write a personal note for each one, but you have— you don't have great handwriting. Oh, get fucked. But do you have good handwriting?

Tommy: Better than yours.

Josh: I've seen yours. I write in all caps. Um, okay, no, well, that's exciting. So yeah, people will get their, uh— can you actually— I know I said that I was looking after the Europe ones. I'll still look after them. That.

Tommy: I'll still do. No, you're looking after the year. We've got Sam Mack on tomorrow.

Josh: Yeah, really fun chat. He is the weather guy for Sunrise, which is a huge breakfast, what do you call it, morning show, TV show in Australia. And him and I have a history that he probably wasn't even that aware about, aware of. So, that was good fun.

Tommy: Yeah, when you stalk people, Sometimes if you do it well, they don't know.

Josh: So exactly, it's the Daily Talk Show, everyone. So yeah, that's, that's what's happening tomorrow. It's Thursday here. Well, it's actually Wednesday night, Thursday morning in Melbourne. And, uh, it's just confusing.

Tommy: It's episode 118.

Josh: Yeah. And we'll, uh, we'll talk about— now that we've gone over the flood, it's all downhill from here. So there'll be less lux, less lux storeys to come. But, uh, Thanks for, thanks for listening, everyone. I think I'm going to go to bed soon.

Tommy: All right, guys, I'm going to get up and go to work. All right, catch ya.
