Stacks On At The Big Strawberry

Tommy: The Daily Talk Show.

Josh: It's a Daily Talk Show episode 361.

Tommy: Live from the big strawberry.

Josh: What? Anyone else expecting more than that? Yeah, in particular.

Tommy: Can I do it? Well, no, I mean, so where we are right now is in Coonamoo, which is Northern Victoria, I think. There's a giant strawberry here. This is what I think Sam Mack would feel like.

Josh: Literally what I was gonna say. And now let's look at the national forecast. You get that vibe?

Tommy: I don't know how we'd survive because my hands, like right now it's like 9 PM, 8 PM, and it's, I think, like 7 degrees and windy. It's freezing.

Josh: Yeah, you're a big baby when it comes to weather.

Tommy: I think I am a bit. I mean, we, I just like being inside. So this is not far from Shepparton where we did yesterday's episode.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: And it's like, it just, it gets so much colder than Melbourne out here.

Josh: The one thing that I do want to point out, so if you don't know about the big strawberry, Australia, I don't know, 3D Deal, do you in Canada have any big items?

Mason: We have a big apple, but it's not the big apple.

Josh: It's not New York?

Mason: It's a big apple.

Josh: Okay.

Tommy: You've just taken off the ground.

Mason: It's like 2.5 hours outside of Toronto.

Tommy: No, but Australia is famous for the big things like—

Josh: Big prawn?

Tommy: The big prawn, the big pineapple. The pineapple was in—

Josh: Queensland?

Tommy: No, the pineapple. No, big banana. That's what I'm thinking. Coffs Harbour.

Josh: Can we look up where the big pineapple is, please? I believe that is in Queensland.

Tommy: I could imagine that's in Queensland.

Josh: But if you're ever wondering, what are they made of? The thing that I don't know, I can't answer that thing, but I was getting slightly worried because I know I feel like this would be hot property to be stolen.

Tommy: Oh yeah, I could imagine things getting stolen. When I was in Shepparton, there was gates being stolen. So like, yeah, so it was a legit thing. Mugs would rock up and steal people's front gates, like the big steel gate.

Josh: Well, it's like gardens and plants and things like that. Like having been to plant farms or places where you buy plants.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: I understand now why that actually happened. Like people actually rip plants out of people's gardens.

Tommy: Rip them out. Yeah. What a gronk move. That's an absolute gronk move. So, we've been filming for the last couple of days. In a place called Leeton, which is in New South Wales, and we're burning the midnight oil. We're just going to get this episode out so we don't break our streak. Oh my God. So none of us have Snapchat. Actually, 3DDILL has Snapchat.

Josh: 3DDILL is prolific. His good friend Autumn, he is constantly Snapchatting with her. Yeah.

Tommy: So is that just how you communicate? You just send a photo plus some text on it?

Mason: That's the premise of Snapchat.

Tommy: No, I know what Snapchat is, you little smart arse. But I'm saying the way you use it use it? Because so I had a work experience kid on once, Mitch, and he was literally just taking photos of his feet, but then using the text on screen as the way to communicate. So you just actually use the messaging thing?

Mason: No, I'll use my actual face or I'll send a picture of what I'm doing.

Tommy: Okay.

Josh: Is it a way of him making it so that things aren't sort of sticking around?

Tommy: Maybe.

Josh: If he's saying something dirty or something?

Tommy: Yeah, but I don't know, it was just like he's just doing it all day. That's probably why I didn't hang around after work experience. But a friend of mine, Ryan, Bodie's godfather actually, he just shared some news, some big news that he's just celebrated his 1,000-day Snap streak with his mate. So there's like, they released like an award system, which means people just gamify it. So it's like, if you keep your streak going, It celebrates and so—

Josh: It tells you, like you can actually, it has like a flame and shit.

Tommy: So he's got a 1,000-day snap streak.

Josh: Well, I wouldn't be surprised if 3D Dill is getting pretty close to 1,000. Where are you at with Autumn?

Mason: Autumn and I currently have a 943-day snap streak.

Tommy: Oh, Jesus.

Mason: We've had this streak almost as long as we've known each other.

Tommy: Oh, so you're gonna go, you'll get to the 1,000.

Mason: I'll get my 1,000.

Tommy: Maybe we should do a big celebration.

Josh: Yeah, what could we do?

Tommy: I don't know.

Jess: You can FaceTime him.

Tommy: Get Autumn on the show. So we do the 1,000th snap of all of us.

Josh: So we make it about us. I appreciate that. With these road trips, if we do a bit of a sort of a retro, I know we haven't arrived in Melbourne yet. We're still about 4 hours away. Yeah. Is it 4 hours or no, 3?

Tommy: 2 hours and 50 minutes from this destination. But we're going to stop for an HSP, maybe a kebab.

Josh: No, that's a good idea.

Tommy: That'd be good.

Josh: So how are we feeling about how things are going in the car?

Tommy: Yeah, all I've been thinking about is I'm annoyed I didn't bring lip balm. I just, I just, I'm not— we've talked about this before. No, but I don't have like a, I don't have a skincare routine or like I don't bring a pouch with all my things.

Josh: Like a toiletry bag.

Tommy: I'm a useless bloke.

Josh: You didn't bring any toothpaste?

Tommy: I brought a toothbrush. I brought my asthma pump because I had an asthma attack.

Josh: That's the ultimate not my problem, isn't it? Or it's not bringing toothpaste.

Tommy: I forgot. Okay. And so I strive, like, I think I want to get— if we start doing more of these road trips with it, which I think we should now.

Josh: You want to be the guy that—

Tommy: I want to be the guy that has a little pack, maybe has a little bit of cologne in there, has a little hand lotion, make sure that I can cater for the boys, a bit of lip balm. Everyone's had cracked lips, we're all dehydrated, drank way too many Coffee had too many bikkies thanks to RWW Group.

Josh: Yeah, we were— RWW Group are some guys who they specialise in like safety, like PPE or like uniforms and stuff, and they embroid, you know.

Tommy: If you see any bloke on a building site or woman, or woman wearing like hi-vis, chance, chances it's come from their warehouse.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: And the funny thing was I was— I do get conscious, self-conscious that potentially I show some of my city boy vibes. Like, it feels like in the country or regional Australia, people are a little bit harder.

Tommy: Well, I think it even makes you recognise those city traits within yourself.

Josh: Like lip balm. Like, that feels like a bit of a city trait.

Tommy: But even just things like cold. There's a few things.

Josh: What did you just say?

Tommy: Like cold.

Josh: Oh, being cold. The cold.

Tommy: I think, yeah, it's just they just get on with it. There's a resilience that people from regional areas, the country, have.

Josh: Well, Mr. 97, I think, has been showing where he sort of is a great dude. He's got a lot going for him. We've pushed him hard from a dating scene point of view. Yeah, but maybe not the easiest guy to date.

Jess: Why?

Josh: What do you think? Like, if we start, I think if we start at the pasty.

Tommy: So the kid hadn't had a pasty. We introduced, we gave him his first pasty. We've given him his first lot, a lot of things. His first job, we found out. This is your first job, isn't it?

Jess: Yeah. First proper job.

Tommy: Working a part of the Gronk Squad. How's that? First job, Gronk Squad.

Josh: We haven't even started yet. So first, the pasty. I asked, we got him a pasty, which he called a pasty, not a pasty. It's a pasty. I asked him, what did you think? He said, I wouldn't order it myself. And then we, he doesn't drink. Drink coffee, so we got him a hot chocolate. He managed to burn his tongue on the hot chocolate on day 1 and ended up in a situation with somehow 5 PM the next day he was still complaining about the hot chocolate.

Tommy: We go to the pub last night and he orders, which I thought no one would order this at this place, it was a stir-fry from a pub. Yeah, they came out and they said, sorry mate, we don't have the noodles because we don't make this fucking thing that much.

Josh: You know, I can sort of understand, you know, there's obviously vegetarians, vegans, all that sort of thing. It's a clear line. The one that Mr. 97 is bringing me sort of attuned to or starting to understand is he's very particular of where his chickens come from. He's got real fucking poultry, fucking, he's a big fucking poultry pumper.

Tommy: We've eaten a lot of schnitzels.

Josh: Well, yeah, but I have, but Mr. 97 has turned away most chicken based on not knowing where the chicken comes from. Do you get free range? I know you get, Free-range eggs. Do you actually get free-range chicken?

Tommy: Yeah. So if you have the option, you buy free-range chicken?

Jess: Yeah, I think it's just standard at home.

Tommy: You just—

Josh: yeah, Denise's money. Yeah, buying just free-range.

Tommy: I said to Mason, do you, do you buy your groceries?

Josh: He said no, but he's got a strong opinion on Aldi given that he loves Aldi.

Tommy: No, actually he does the shopping, but he doesn't pay for them.

Josh: Okay, sure.

Tommy: He's still living at home.

Josh: Does mum just give her credit card?

Tommy: Have you ever Do you say, "Mum, I'm going to put through an expense claim"?

Jess: Yeah, well, luckily enough, I've actually got it attached to my Google Pay.

Josh: So I can tap my mum's card on Google Pay.

Jess: Wow.

Tommy: How have you felt? Is this out of your comfort zone going away for a bit of a road trip with the guys? Work trip? This is your first work trip?

Jess: First work trip.

Josh: Yeah. Yeah.

Jess: It's not that. I don't feel that uncomfortable.

Josh: No?

Jess: It's a bit of fun. It's like hanging out with the boys.

Josh: Yeah. It's just the boys. This is the first boys trip I've ever been on.

Tommy: Yeah, but we're also here working, so it's a part of the business.

Josh: Yeah. I mean, the one thing that I like, if we were to stacks on anyone, because there is— you did mention the fact that when it's the boys and they're out being the boys and doing that sort of stuff, there is a tendency to play a bit of stacks on based on trying to avoid being the one that's getting stacked.

Tommy: So yeah, because what happens is I realize, and I hadn't ever had this thought, is we say if you're the one getting stacked on, it feels horrible. So if you see an opportunity, an opening to jump on and jump on the gravy train of someone else getting stacked on, you do it really quickly. And so that way promotes a culture of just looking for your opportunity to stack someone on.

Josh: But the problem is Mr. 97's wanting to know how was the gravy made? That was a free range. It didn't land.

Tommy: I didn't know it didn't land. So anyway, moving on. I am—

Josh: was that— am I bombing on my own show?

Tommy: I didn't even get where the gravy reference came from.

Josh: Well, because you said the gravy train, get on the gravy.

Tommy: Okay. Anyway, it doesn't matter.

Josh: What I want to— who I want to be stacking on is Mr. 97 because we'll just go through the list. Okay. But no, he said to me on the first night, he said we just had a few final things to do. I appreciate he's doing long hours anyway. Yeah, but he did say he's like, I'm going to get this thing done. I'm going to have a 30-minute nap and I've put my alarm on.

Tommy: When was this?

Jess: It was probably like it was almost midnight.

Tommy: So this was the first night we got—

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: So Sunday night we had shit to deliver on, specifically the 360 video.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: So Sunday night, that fucking 360 video, that was 100 gigabytes.

Jess: Yeah, it was a lot of effort to get that up.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: So be thankful if you watch in 360. We appreciate you watching in 360. No, but I appreciate that. So, so what happened?

Josh: So you went to bed. Because I'm stacking on him, he can't say whatever. No, I, Mr. 97 was specific in, he's like, I'm going to be more productive if I just have a quick nap and then do this rather than just doing it now, which is fine.

Jess: Well, I couldn't do it now anyway.

Josh: Because I was using the laptop.

Jess: Yeah.

Tommy: Okay.

Josh: But anyway, he, Fell asleep. Great for a nap. That's what you want. But he didn't put an alarm on. And so 45 minutes went by, an hour went by, and I was like, do I wake him up? I already felt bad with him.

Tommy: He's in deep REM sleep by then.

Josh: Yeah. And so I decided not. I just, I was like, you know what? I'll let him panic because he cares. And so he'll wake up at 4 in the morning and go, pfft.

Tommy: And what happened? I didn't know about this.

Jess: Yeah, well, I got a, I heard Dill turn the light off. I think, I think Dill was turning the light off and then it was just sort of like a, it was like safe, I'm safe. I can not do this anymore. But yeah, I got up in the morning early to cheque if Josh put on the render for the GoPro video.

Josh: Which I had. You had.

Jess: Which was lucky.

Josh: Yeah.

Jess: 'Cause we would have been in trouble.

Tommy: I mean, I can't believe I didn't know about this.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: Well, you got the single.

Tommy: I would have jumped on you straight away.

Josh: You were already in bed.

Tommy: No, I was asleep. But the next day I would have at least taken him a dead arm.

Josh: I think I came in. Oh no, that was the next night I came in and you're watching our own 3-second clip. 360 video.

Tommy: Oh yeah, tucked up in bed, privilege. Just how good's this? Yeah, just like turning it, not realising that Josh was the reason it all came together again.

Josh: Uh, did you, uh, I feel like there's a slight— there feels like a slight delay, uh, based on us being tired and also the fact that we're in front of a fucking strawberry.

Tommy: My back's done in. Like, this is— yeah, I'm just— I'm sore, which I—

Josh: to be an old man, can I say that it makes me feel some form of good feeling when everyone's back sore.

Jess: Yeah.

Josh: Do you get what I mean? Because I'm like, when I see your back sore, I'm like, you know what? Everyone's back sore. This isn't a problem that I just have.

Tommy: Yeah, I've said it many times.

Jess: Tommy goes to the gym.

Tommy: I said it many times. I actually haven't been deadlifting and squatting enough, and I know it's probably why my back sore. And so it's annoying that I have to do it while I'm in pain. And it gets better. It's like moving into the pain helps the pain. It's annoying. It's so annoying.

Josh: That's what a guy said to me doing fucking kettlebells. I herniated two discs.

Tommy: Yeah, but he also did—

Josh: Don't go towards the pain. If you've got pain—

Jess: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tommy: If you've got slipped disc pain, herniate— Or if you've got pain, you think could lead to a slipped disc. I saw a guy, it was the most graphic thing. He was like a strength and conditioning coach online and he had made up, he probably spent so much time He made up this vertebrae and he had like the jelly in between the discs that is there to, you know, that is what happens. So when you get a herniated disc— What was that?

Josh: I was jumping.

Tommy: What the fuck was that?

Josh: Like, I was feeling the vertebrae.

Jess: They could have just pulled that all the way out. I know, I was panicking for a second while you were in midair.

Tommy: Don't do it, you're not a surgeon.

Josh: Nah, I don't reckon that's a good idea.

Tommy: But what he'd done was had this, and he had this really graphic image of him like moving the vertebrae And it blowing up some of the stuff in the middle that would like shoot out this— look like strawberry jam. It was a bit of a homage to the— to the Coonamoo strawberry. But it was horrible. Anyway, that was horrible. Yeah.

Josh: Anyway, what's the time right now, Mr. 97?

Tommy: Give me a second.

Jess: My hands are so cold.

Josh: My Apple Watch—

Jess: 8:52.

Josh: My Apple Watch is dead because I didn't bring a charger.

Tommy: It's classic, like my brother who went to a music festival. With his Apple Watch and what happens at a music festival when you— he's got no charging point.

Mason: Yeah.

Tommy: And so he's waiting for those kids to sort of—

Jess: I was a multi-day one.

Josh: Multi-day one. Multi-day one. Don't ever call it a multi-day one. I mean, I haven't been to a music festival. No, I know you don't call it a multi-day one.

Tommy: Have you never been to a music festival?

Josh: No, my brother used to go to Big Day Out and I was very impressed by that.

Tommy: That was very popular.

Josh: It was like a—

Tommy: yeah, it was a bit rocky.

Josh: There's like The Offspring, I feel like, may have been there. Yeah, I don't know many bands, but, uh, one thing I wanted to bring up is, uh, Mr. 97 and 3D deal. They had two different bedrooms. One of them had two single beds.

Tommy: Yeah, so I booked the— I booked the accommodation in Leighton and found these lovely serviced apartments, and they were nice, although security wasn't great thanks to our gronks. What So there was a PIN code at the front door. Beep, beep, beep, beep. Push the door. And all I hear is Mason. Oh, it's 3131, isn't it? It's like, mate, people can hear you. He's never traveled. I mean, he's never traveled. You travelled with a butler, right? When you went to Europe?

Josh: But I feel like it's a common dad. It's a common trait. He sometimes forgets where he is. He sometimes— because the thing is, I say fuck more than anyone. However, there is times where it's just like You say he's in the boardroom office or whatever, he's like, "Ah, fuck this, fuck that." He gets— it's like Mr. 97 works it. It's like even when we're leaving the office, just, "I haven't put the alarm on." Like, he's the first guy to say the alarm's not on, or it's like, "Oh, hopefully no one steals the computer." No street smarts.

Tommy: Anyway, so I booked these two rooms and I actually went in. I'm so grateful. That I went into the one that Josh and I shared, checked both the bed, you know, queen-size beds, just went into the next one. I only checked one room of the second apartment.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: And I checked the queen bedroom. So I didn't actually know that the second room had a room that just had two single beds, which is where Mason landed.

Josh: And so the big question is, how does Mr. 97 and 3D Deal decide Who gets the single bed?

Tommy: Yeah, it didn't need to be a discussion between you and I. Same beds. Yeah, same beds.

Josh: You got the nicer room. Did I? Yeah.

Tommy: Yeah, I know.

Josh: It did have sort of a nicer sort of—

Tommy: I mean, we spent hardly any time. We were hanging out in their room more than ours.

Josh: Well, I've actually travelled with people and did a bit of reverse psychology.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: I said, oh my God, this room is fucking great. And then they're like, they come in like, oh man, it is sick, isn't it?

Jess: Like, yeah.

Josh: When I was On the road, they ended up taking that one and I got the one that had the bigger fucking windows.

Tommy: They fucked up. That's so great. And you're a psychopath.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: When I was on the road stripping.

Josh: And I'm the psychopath. Through New Zealand.

Tommy: So every, so we did like over 20 shows in different areas of Mr. 97's motherland, but we were staying in motels, different hotels. And it was, it was 6 blokes and it was always a fight.

Josh: A lot of testosterone.

Tommy: It was a lot of testosterone, but we just sorted it out with a rock, paper, scissors. It's rock, paper, scissors. Everyone says fucking rock, paper, scissors. So it was just straight in.

Josh: Paper, rock.

Tommy: So yeah, you cut me. I always went scissors.

Josh: Oh really?

Tommy: Yeah, because I worked out they were just gronks. They were just— this one guy I kept doing it with, I was like, what?

Josh: You were always doing paper?

Tommy: I fucking knew what he was doing.

Josh: What was he doing?

Tommy: I just went rock. Scissors, and if it didn't work, I went rock, and I won every time. And so I worked it out.

Josh: No, that doesn't make sense.

Tommy: Oh, just because it must have been a pattern. So every time I started with scissors, and if he— and if he— no, no, that doesn't work. I must have got him always on scissors. Now I see what you mean. So I always got him.

Josh: I reckon there's no strategy. You think that you've applied some kind of strategy.

Tommy: Well, I always— no, but I— no, I went scissors every time, and I got the fucking queen or king-size bed is my point. How did you, Gronks, work it out?

Mason: Pretty easily. Mason's like, man, you're from Canada and like you're here for 4 months, you can have the good bed.

Josh: Oh, that's nice.

Mason: And I was like, thanks dude, I appreciate that. I was going to take it anyways, whether it was with a simple conversation or by brute force.

Tommy: I mean, we spent 20 minutes beating up Mason and he's done a really nice thing.

Mason: Yeah, yeah.

Josh: No, like, why don't we take a moment?

Mason: Yeah, it's a redeeming thing.

Josh: Yeah, he's been very good. He, uh, he's getting better at backing up footage, which has been sort of a pain point. His language around it needs to change though. Yeah.

Jess: Yeah.

Tommy: Well, so we had a good system going. I would change the cards in the camera and I would get them off Mr. 97 who had done his work. So I didn't even see what he said, but I just said to him, mate, can I initialise the media? Which is just reformatting the card in the camera. And I'd have to go through a process to get there and give me a prompt. 'Do you want to do this?' And I'd just say, 'Mr. 97, can I do this?' And he'd say, 'Yeah, I think so.' Yeah, it should be right. Yeah, it should be right. No, mate, I'm about to delete all the footage we just filmed.

Josh: You just said the client, mate.

Tommy: He said, 'Should be right.' And then I'd give him another one, which was, '3, 2,' and I pressed it once and he goes, 'Oh, shit.' Little prick.

Josh: The thing is, yeah, he's being funny, but he doesn't realise that There was actually a time, Mr. 97, where he was trying to back up the Daily Talk Show. And this was a few weeks ago when we didn't have a system at all. And can you describe what happened, 97s?

Jess: Oh, panic.

Josh: Why?

Jess: A lot of panic. Yeah, so I was setting it back up to go and I accidentally configured it the wrong way.

Josh: He did the wrong way. So instead of backing it all up, he deleted the whole fucking thing. Could you see anything worse happening?

Tommy: Imagine his little sphincter.

Josh: Yeah, he was like, I'd never get pretty much. He started doing this, like, he actually, like, his hand was like, he was like resting his head on his arm.

Jess: I was like, I'm trying to process what happened.

Tommy: We defeated.

Josh: But the thing is, how did it go? Can we just, I just want to appreciate me in the moment. What happened?

Jess: Oh no, Josh was great about it. He was like, oh, so, so what, what can we do? How much have we lost? I was like, mate, we've lost all of it. I like it.

Tommy: I like it.

Josh: Well, what else can you do in those situations? You've got to be, you know, you've got to be a good team.

Tommy: Other than it was his last day. Well, it's his job that he gets fired.

Josh: Like, the thing is, I always look at it as like, okay, what could I have done better? I probably could have communicated, like, I should have checked. And so I think that's the only thing that you can do in those situations.

Tommy: Oh yeah. I mean, that's something we're trying to work out the solution of. Like it is, it's everyone who plays in the digital space is relying on some kind of media storage. I'm surprised my hard drives haven't gone at some point. I think I'm just lucky.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Like you're—

Josh: I just don't want to be playing into it. You do not want to play in that game where it's like, I'm just, I'm one of the lucky ones.

Tommy: Well, right, right now we have a project. If we lost all of our data, we'd lose in excess of $80,000.

Josh: And so you don't want that. But I mentioned, I constantly mention it because it's like we need to make sure that we have backups and all that sort of thing.

Mason: Well, yeah.

Tommy: Figure because it's like time people have invested reshooting things.

Josh: You just don't want to have to deal with it. Road tripping. Where would you go when you were growing up?

Tommy: Oh, we went to Flinders. Which isn't a road trip. No, it's only an hour. But then we used to go to a place called Marlo, which was down Gippsland, quite far away, 4 hours, I think. But I just have fond memories of going fishing, going out on boats, driving. Like, we had this property. I burnt my hand there, spilled hot chocolate on it. I was notorious. Was that a joke?

Josh: No, legit, legit.

Tommy: But I was 6. I wasn't fucking 19. But I remember I'd burn my hand all the time, and I burnt my hand there, and I just remember having to hold it hand in a bucket, bucket of water. Yeah, that was me at most things. My grandpa's 80th, 70th, handed a bucket of water. Most nights, handed a bucket of water.

Josh: I remember the, the, uh, the time that I learned that you could use a magnifying glass to burn things.

Tommy: Oh no, what happened?

Josh: No, I just like burnt it. It was during Easter. I just remember sitting just out the front.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, I remember burning shit. Paper, burning through paper.

Josh: The funny thing is that parents like You know, that's the— if you've got a boy, you know, a kid, the only reason they're using a magnifying glass is to burn stuff.

Tommy: Of course.

Josh: Like, how did I even learn that? That's the other thing. There's got to be someone who says—

Tommy: It's in Toy Story.

Jess: Oh, that's right.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, totally. Totally.

Josh: You are spot on.

Tommy: So you bring it back and when you get the really small, it's all about getting that really small piece of light. That's when it gets the most—

Josh: I haven't done it in a long time. It'd be hard to do it in Melbourne in this time of year.

Tommy: I mean, if you're 29 and you're still doing it.

Josh: 28.

Tommy: If you're 28 and still doing it, yeah, it's— what are you up to, bro?

Josh: The one thing that I have—

Tommy: you might not be here, it's fucking bit weird.

Josh: This trip has been inspiring me to get a telescope.

Tommy: They're very expensive.

Josh: It depends which one you get.

Tommy: Jules Lund was going to get one. He asked around, everyone willing to chuck in for a friend's birthday present. I don't think he went ahead because of how expensive it was.

Josh: Could we do something? That would be a cool brand integration. The daily talk shows, goes to space, but it's all like we actually go to the desert and we do like star watching.

Tommy: I reckon we could find this guy. So on St Kilda Beach, 3DDU, you'd love this as a tourist. I even found it. I felt like I was in Barcelona or something on the beachfront where there's all sort of, you know, stalls and people pulling you into tourist traps. A guy had the— I don't know if it's a reverse telescope, so it doesn't look up to the stars. It looks to the sun. And so he's like, that's not a reverse telescope. I don't know what they called it.

Josh: Reverse telescope. I was imagining, wow, how far in the ground does it see?

Tommy: No, so the reverse telescope, maybe the, the opposite. So it doesn't look at night, it looks at the sun. And so there's only a few that can do it. And he had this, and he had this sign on the ground that was like, one of the only telescopes. And you had to pay to look at the sun.

Josh: But what do you, what do we think it is?

Tommy: It has like a big polarising filter.

Jess: Unless it was a solar telescope.

Tommy: Solar Telescope, maybe that's it. Anyway, looked up at the sun, he did some branding around it, and you paid. I didn't pay, but I think we could probably find him, and he's like, you can see the heat, the heat, and like, that's cool, fucking fire on the sun. Like, that's how far it went.

Josh: But so I do like the idea of doing something.

Tommy: That bloke's trying to make money out of how much you spend on that thing.

Josh: It would be expensive.

Tommy: It'd be so expensive.

Josh: Or maybe he's a wacky dude who built it himself.

Tommy: There's some wacky people in— nah, definitely it was It was very, very fucking legit.

Josh: But the thing is, right now where we are, there isn't that many stars, but it's because we've got light around us. Yeah, but about, what, maybe half an hour, an hour before we got here, we were stopping to take a leak and I'm doing the driving, so I haven't been able to do much looking up at the sky. And I was blown away at the amount of stars.

Tommy: Oh, well, what are we, 2.5 hours from a a capital city. Yeah, there's no light pollution out here. It's so nice.

Josh: And so, uh, 3D Dill, you know, how did you learn what you know about the solar system?

Mason: I was pretty into like space and astronomy and stuff when I was in grade 12, and, uh, I just pointed the camera up at the, the sky to try and photograph it because I had seen people on Instagram were posting pictures of, uh, Jupiter and Saturn and stuff. Yeah, I was like, oh, I can do that.

Tommy: I did that time-lapse. I fucked it.

Josh: Was that with Rupert?

Tommy: Yeah. When I was in Central Queensland. Yeah, yeah. Central Queensland. You could see it like you see the Milky Way move within the time-lapse. We should have probably got out last night and done it.

Josh: It would be good, but I think there's definitely something we could do show-wise. Like, I would like to be— there's all those things. If I put it on the list, it's like learn how to tie a knot, learn how to like the solar system, like, learn how stars work.

Tommy: I mean, it's what we learned in primary school. Don't you remember? But the thing is, what were they called? A diorama. And everyone would do it of the solar system.

Josh: Like, I just remember learning about cold fronts.

Tommy: Cold fronts.

Josh: Do you remember, like, what— like, I remember in grade 3 specifically learning that, like, on the weather map, what a cold front— like, when they would do the cold front symbol.

Tommy: No use anymore. Just get an app.

Josh: What do you mean?

Tommy: Hey Siri. What's the weather?

Josh: But this is what people say. I just look at the radar. I know how to fucking read the radar. Isn't it true? How do you read the radar? It's like, okay, the clouds are here now. I know where the clouds are. How do I know where the clouds are getting?

Tommy: It's pretty simple. Like you see like the real time, it's just like, doot doot doot doot, sends the clouds.

Josh: So you're assuming the clouds just start to keep going the same way?

Tommy: Well, I think it shows you the wind pattern.

Josh: Do you know anything about radars, 3D Dill? Sorry? Anything about radars?

Tommy: I can't hear anything. You've got headphones on.

Josh: Sorry. Anything about radars? Do I know?

Mason: Weather radars? Yeah, do you?

Josh: I don't know anything about radars. What about you, Mr. No Sad Ending?

Tommy: I don't know anything about radars.

Josh: Alright, great. Hi@thedailytalkshow.com. What's the deal with radars?

Tommy: What do you mean radars?

Josh: Weather radars.

Tommy: What do you want to know about them? Yeah, what's the question? It's like saying, what's the deal?

Jess: I'm pretty sure that they just send something like a balloon or something up into the atmosphere and it's got little like sensors on it.

Josh: I love his like, I don't know what it is, but I think it's a balloon that they throw up in the air.

Mason: Yeah, well, I didn't know what you wanted to know about it.

Tommy: What do you want to know about it?

Josh: No, I just want to know how to read— like, could I—

Tommy: I would love to He's workshopping this as we're going.

Josh: I would love to have a screen in the office that had, if I could read the radar properly, be able to be like—

Tommy: But hang on, there's apps that do it for you. Why do you need to add like this old update?

Josh: What's the app doing? The app's showing you the radar.

Tommy: Yes.

Josh: And what I'm saying is—

Tommy: But then it shows you the real-time data of, you know, the incoming rain or the wind or—

Josh: Well, that's what excites me.

Tommy: There was an app that was called the Swell Report. I used to do that as a young guys, you'd look at like northeasterly winds, which would mean that it's going to have offshore breeze, which will be better for the waves. And there's a bit of a tide. So I think you need to find something like something. Yeah. I mean, that's a lot of people know how to read the surf radar.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Based on the thing that it will give them versus just going, what's the radar? I can walk to work.

Josh: You've just triggered me by saying the tide. This morning we learned in New South Wales how to order a coffee that's—

Tommy: I don't know how— I was gonna say universal. I don't know how state official it is. I wanted to order, and I didn't want to confuse her.

Josh: She's your roomie.

Tommy: But I did. Like a strong 3/4 latte, which is not a— it's just a Melbourne order. There's less milk, strong amount of coffee, you know, lots of coffee. But she said, "No, it's called low tide." Yeah.

Josh: And the problem is you then asked one of our clients to go and he was getting us coffee. And so he went to the local bakery, small country town. And he said, "Can I have 4 low tides?" We don't know if he did. So he can't go there anymore.

Tommy: Well, we don't know if he asked for the 4 low tides.

Mason: He did.

Josh: He said they looked at me strange. I had no idea what I was talking about.

Tommy: Well, then it was the lady from the other cafe who's really fucked that because I'd only heard the low tide thing in New Zealand. And I don't know, maybe ask one of you, ask your auntie who lives in New Zealand.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: If low tide coffee is the thing, the place in Auckland, that's where I got it from this bagel shop. Oh, you would have loved it.

Josh: I love bagels.

Tommy: Action Bronson, who has a food show. Did an episode from this bagel shop and they cook all their own bagels. And anyway, I got this strong 3/4 latte and she said, "Ah, that's a low tide." I do worry the food stuff. What food stuff?

Josh: You just did a shakka on the official shakka day. International Shakka Day. International Shakka Day. But no, they— I've got a slight concern that there's too much comedy going around my diet that I'm going to keep doing it as gear like I did when I was a little fat kid where it's like, Positive response. You're back to 130. Well, the thing is, it's like the, um, uh, I was proud of myself yesterday.

Jess: Why?

Josh: Uh, based on the McFlurry and what happened.

Tommy: What do you mean? What happened?

Josh: Well, so we ordered two, we ordered three McFlurries. Mr. 97's a bit of a health nut and so he didn't want a McFlurry.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: And, um, so 3D Dill had one because he's a Animal. You are an animal.

Mason: You are an animal.

Tommy: When in Australia.

Josh: And so, and so anyway, we got the McFlurries, the Oreo McFlurries, and we had fudge.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And you straight away, like the rat that you are, took the one with the most amount of fudge and said, this is my one.

Tommy: No, I didn't even say anything.

Josh: I just went, shoom. Yeah, you said, that's mine. Hahaha. And I was just like, cool about it. Did you not think like afterwards like, "Ah, I didn't get any reaction from Josh." No, but I—

Tommy: this is the reaction. You telling me that you really thought about it and thought you'd bring it to this show.

Josh: But did you think— did you think about it? Did you think about, "Josh didn't react, maybe it wasn't that funny." No, you did react. How did I react? Hmm.

Tommy: Oh yeah, see what you did there. I just see inside you thought about it though.

Josh: Well, I wasn't gonna let it rattle me. I think that's fair. We've got a truck who is— they've got their orange lights on and they're sort of reversing. Yeah, I think it's probably a good time for us to go.

Tommy: Yeah, let's wrap this one up. It's been The Daily Talk Show from the Coonamoo Big Strawberry.

Josh: hi@thedailytalkshow.com is the email address if you want to send us an email. Where should we do our next show from? Some form of big item. Yeah, let us know if there's one in your town and we'll Jesus is getting a little bit— Sam Mack, which I love.

Tommy: I think Sam Mack got nominated for a Gold Logie.

Josh: So please, uh, if you do, if you do the voting process, do it. TV Week. TV Week.

Tommy: Either way, I hope Sam wins the Gold Logie.

Josh: It's a daily talk show. Uh, we will see you tomorrow from our new desk with— we've been doing heaps of renos.

Tommy: Oh yeah, the studio's looking great. Back to you, Kochie.

Josh: Uh, yeah, that's right, Shay.

Tommy: Is it? Yeah. Back to your coffee.

Josh: All right.

Tommy: Cash cow coming up after the break.

Josh: Let me do the outro. It's a daily talk show, everyone. We'll see you tomorrow in the renovated studio. But definitely, if you, if you want to watch an episode, you should definitely watch this one because the strawberry is very impressive or even subscribe to us on YouTube. And the other thing, just very quickly, we haven't done this in a while. Just a bit of admin. Can someone leave a review? Because since on the Apple Podcasts app.

Jess: Yeah.

Josh: Exciting stuff too with WWDC and Apple. They've separated out iTunes and Apple Podcasts.

Tommy: God, are we doing a whole nother show?

Josh: I thought you were wrapping it up. I know, but I just sort of—

Jess: It's cold.

Josh: I just got a little— I got a level of energy. All right, today was your show. We'll see you tomorrow.
