Pub Crawls & Mr. 97's 21st

Josh: The Daily Talk Show.

Tommy: It's The Daily Talk Show, episode 630, and it's our final episode according to Hamish Blake. Well, it could have been our final episode.

Josh: You're not going to play that shit audio again, are you?

Tommy: No, but Hamish did say that, uh, you know, you might get to 630 and then decide, look, there's something else we want to do.

Josh: Is there anything you want to say?

Tommy: Um, uh, happy Saturday! What's going on?

Josh: How you feeling?

Tommy: I'm a bit tired today. Okay, it's, um, I think the thing about this show, I reckon I've had the worst diet of my life on this show based on a few of the, uh, activations and, um, things we sort of allow ourselves, uh, to consume based on, um, just people giving a shit. I mean, we've got a show baker, we do Fat Fridays.

Josh: Yeah, we had Leah in and now, uh, Glenn has joined us. Hello Glenn.

Unknown: G'day guys.

Tommy: Flying in from, uh Florida.

Unknown: Sunny Florida.

Tommy: Mate, I saw on your bag as you walk through, I'm observant, hand sanitizer. Is that a new addition based on shit that's going on?

Unknown: It was a restock.

Tommy: A restock.

Unknown: So it has been empty for quite a while.

Tommy: Okay, so it's not, it's not even, it's not for coronavirus. Yeah, yeah, it is. Yeah, it was, but you got through it so quickly and now it's just on your bag.

Unknown: Well, the one that was on there was, uh, just to, that had been there for a long time and gone. The new one, definitely made sure I had some for this flight.

Tommy: Yeah, good.

Josh: And so with that mask, you, you didn't answer the storey where you had a mask mask.

Tommy: I didn't see this.

Josh: What's this? It's almost like a hazmat spray painting. Okay, sure, because it was like a full-blown, like, uh, doomsday style. Yeah, I think maybe at Halloween did I try one on. Like, I was looking at one of those masks.

Unknown: I think that might have got some interesting comments in there. What if I'd worn that?

Tommy: Yeah, he was, he was wearing a gimp mask.

Josh: It was, yeah, similar.

Tommy: Um, Glenn found us, found the podcast. You live in Florida. We, you were at our Friday night drinks. Yes, um, that was in Jan, and now you, you're back in our great land.

Unknown: I'm Yeah, just for a couple of days, quick visit, and then back again in another month or so.

Tommy: I mean, is it true that you just came to give us snacks and that's why you're in Australia?

Unknown: That's it, snack delivery service.

Tommy: And that's what I was alluding to.

Unknown: I've hooked up with the baker and everybody else.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tommy: You're a candy dealer from the States. I mean, it was— this is what I was alluding to about sort of consuming calories that I probably wouldn't normally do. It's like if Nona hands you food, you eat it. Glyn gives you lollies from the States, you consume them. Come on, I want to see these.

Josh: Yeah, what do we got?

Tommy: I just need a little pep me up.

Josh: Okay, here we go. So Glenn has— so I love the sound of the rustling. Yeah, it's making me excited. Okay, great. Okay. All right. So, oh, oh, oh, oh, here we go. Here we go. So, so we've got— thank you. All right, Glenn, sharing size. Absolutely not. These are peanut butter and Twizzlers. Fuck me.

Tommy: Twizzler sticks.

Josh: Resealable. We won't need to be resealing ours.

Tommy: What are these? Mike and Ike Mega Mix.

Josh: What's the Mega Mix? I love it.

Unknown: That's a good question.

Tommy: The Mega Mix, uh, gluten-free, fat-free, good for you. Yeah, it's fruit, natural and artificially flavored.

Unknown: So these, like, I remembered you were a little critical of the last M&M's you tried, which I think were pretzel.

Tommy: Yeah, we tried those. Yep, yep.

Unknown: The peanut butter is the way to go.

Tommy: Oh, these smell like Nerds. I mean, we just did a whole day of eating yesterday, but—

Josh: oh, okay. They almost look like medicine.

Tommy: Mm. Well, it tastes like medicine.

Josh: Do you— Can I guess where you got them from? Yeah. CVS.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: So CVS, for people who don't know, it's like a pharmacy bottle shop.

Unknown: It's just, it's like an expensive tiny supermarket.

Josh: Yeah. But like a lot of confectionery.

Tommy: Get your insulin from there. Get your diabetes.

Unknown: Get your diabetes, your insulin. Well, there's plenty of candy and no hand sanitiser. Really? Totally gone. Everywhere I looked for hand sanitiser this week, gone.

Josh: Where?

Tommy: In the States?

Unknown: Yep.

Josh: What about toilet paper?

Tommy: They're freaking out too.

Unknown: I think they're good on toilet paper.

Josh: Really?

Tommy: They're freaking out though?

Unknown: No, not yet. Maybe after they see some of the video from here this week.

Tommy: Trump went hard, banned people from coming into the country.

Unknown: Uh-oh.

Josh: Really?

Tommy: No, banned people from China are entering the country. Like, he went harder than Australia has.

Josh: Oh, really?

Tommy: So anyway, right, this is good.

Josh: What's the, um, what's the vibe like in the US with the Democrat stuff?

Unknown: Uh, so they just had Super Tuesday, that was yesterday, and that's when, uh, Biden got on a bit of a run with votes. Um, so he won a few states, Bernie Sanders won a few states, and then they had 2 or 3 people drop out. Um, 2 of the more centrist candidates dropped out, Buttigieg and, um, Bloomberg or something. Oh no, he's standing. Well, sorry, and so they both dropped out and pledged their support behind Joe Biden.

Tommy: Sure.

Unknown: And, uh, yeah, it'll be interesting. It's like sport. They'll be down to 2 in a couple of weeks, would be my guess.

Josh: It's so weird. Who is like a sport?

Tommy: Who do you think's gonna win it? Like, what's the vibe in Florida? What are people thinking? Well, they're not there at the beach.

Unknown: They don't like the Democrats in Florida.

Josh: Very interesting.

Unknown: Very red state.

Josh: So the—

Tommy: oh, wow. God.

Josh: Back to the candy where we just quickly— where we can speak to with authority. You can speak. I also— yeah, I agree. I haven't been taking into account like the different colors, but these Mike What are they called?

Unknown: Mike and Ike's.

Josh: Mike and Ike's. I love the Mike and Ike's. They're delicious.

Unknown: Pretty good.

Tommy: Mike and Ike Mega Mix sounds like a DJ.

Josh: And so there's like—

Tommy: they just dropped the new Mega Mix.

Josh: So there's pink, there's purple, and they've got real like dialled in. Like my face is stinging. That's how much like flavours in them.

D: Really?

Josh: The M&M's, I haven't had them yet because I'm pumped. I'm just holding, holding back. But Rhett and Link, Um, these YouTubers, have you heard of Rhett and Link? They do, um, Good Mythical Morning. They're almost like a, uh, Hamish and Andy in the US, uh, from North Carolina, now living in California. They're great. And a lot of their content is around food. And this week they did a video where they tried every flavour of Ben Jerry's. That's a great video. It's 54 flavours.

Tommy: Oh wow.

Josh: And they, the number one flavour they voted was the, I think it's called Peanut Butter House, and it's just like actual peanut butter in and amongst it.

Tommy: The problem with it, it's flawed because once you just have sugar in your mouth, like by the 5th scoop, all you taste is just sweet sugar.

Josh: They had a salt lick.

Tommy: That's funny. What is a salt lick?

Unknown: Salt lick, you would use a salt lick if you're trying to attract deer to your Interesting.

Tommy: You get a salt lick if you had a guinea pig or a rabbit.

Unknown: Yeah.

Tommy: You can get little salt licks for the side of the cage. It's just really funny though.

Josh: And so does the salt lick go down in size as you lick it?

Unknown: Sure it would eventually.

Josh: Like a gobstopper.

Unknown: Yeah.

Josh: I rate these.

Tommy: I think I've never heard this saying, but you could say it doesn't pay to be sad. Or do you think it does pay to be sad?

Josh: If you're Limo, he gets a lot of content from that.

Tommy: True. Depends if you're a comedian. For my wife, it doesn't really pay to be sad, but it paid off recently. She was sad when she was walking around.

Josh: Did you do your first segue on the show?

Tommy: That was a great little bit. Listen, I'm going to—

Josh: I'm sorry, I fucked it.

Tommy: Yeah, it's— you don't point out segues or you don't point out sound effects.

Josh: No, well, no, it was just the—

Tommy: point out intros.

Josh: It was just good. It's like, do you know what's good? Do you know what's not good? I don't know. It was just a funny— like, if we were having a conversation, I'd pick up on it. That's why I have— But so it paid to be sad.

Tommy: She was walking around and she was a bit sad and she's like, I was looking down, I was a bit sad, and then I found $50. Only because she was looking down though. Like usually she's, you know, if you're a bit chipper and you're up and about, you're looking ahead, you're fucking sniffing around, you know.

Josh: That sounds like real sad.

Tommy: She just said she was walking and she was sad and that she was She's like, I was looking down more than normal.

Josh: Was she looking down just like, what am I doing? What do you reckon? Did you say, hey babe, why were you sad?

Tommy: Or you're like, oh, that's great, she just texted me, just said I found $50. I said, let's go, um, to the Veneto Club.

Josh: Oh, that's great. So you're going to—

Tommy: oh, we've been. Oh, it happened. But I was like, it's so true. If you're looking, it's just because if you observe— do you think you're observant, Glenn? No, of your surroundings?

Unknown: Not— no, terrible memory, not very observant. I think things will get by me.

Tommy: Good to know.

Josh: Yeah, that was on your yearbook.

Tommy: Things will get by me. Whatever.

Josh: That should be— I'm not sure, this should be your Instagram bio. Things will get by me.

Tommy: What's the most cash you've found?

Unknown: Oh, um, not much really. Like, uh, You'd be doing well to find $50 on the ground.

Tommy: I mean, you find dollar notes in the States, but it's like, it's only $1, and they're just annoying to have on you if, you know, if you're walking around.

Josh: But I guess like tipping and stuff, you still need it. Like, when was the last time you had a $2 bill?

Unknown: I actually have one.

Josh: Really?

Unknown: Found it years ago, and so they're pretty rare. Hold on to it. They— you never see them. I thought— I didn't realise it was a real thing when I found it.

Josh: Really?

Unknown: Yeah.

Tommy: Have they discontinued the creation of it?

Unknown: I don't know. I'm not sure. They might, but they're definitely not common. So, you never get one in like change at the register or anything like that.

Josh: It'd be a big deal.

Tommy: Yeah. Casey Neistat made that video about getting a whole heap of $2 bills and he got like a suitcase of them.

Josh: So, Steve—

Tommy: He's like loves the $2 bill.

Josh: Or Steve Wozniak. Apple founder? Yeah. One of the founders of— Can you look this up, Set97? Can you look up $2 bill? Steve Wozniak. When you're that rich, you can be pretty eccentric. And so what I believe I read that he did was, you know how you have a notepad and at the end of the notepad it has like the glue adhesive sort of thing and you tear it off? He added that to stacks of $2 bills. And so that's how he would tip people, is he would pull out a notepad of $2 bills and would tear them off.

Unknown: I thought you were going to say it wasn't— he'd figured out it wasn't worth his time to bend down and pick one up.

Josh: No, but I, I wonder if that is actually— serves You say anywhere, is that a thing?

D: Yeah, so he self-printed his own $2 bills.

Josh: Okay, well, that's slightly different.

Tommy: That's fraud.

D: It's legit. No, no, it's actually like he bought like the printer or paid for it or whatever.

Josh: Um, this isn't adding up, but go on.

Tommy: No, he went— I get what you're trying to say. He got a deal with the Mint or whoever.

Josh: He just went—

D: He's got perforated pads of $2 bills that he rips off. Is that what you were saying?

Josh: Yeah.

D: Yes.

Tommy: I wonder how much he paid.

Unknown: There's a photo of him doing it.

Josh: That's pretty cool, don't you reckon?

Unknown: Yeah, it's not bad.

Tommy: It's eccentric.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: What, um, like you think it's bullshit. Yeah, I mean, Banksy, uh, the street artist, he created the, uh, fake notes and was like, and threw them or something. I think this is right. And so many people were finding them and actually trying to use them that he's like I got to not do this because it's fucking with everybody. And so he realised that the bills were like looking good. I mean, it looks American.

Josh: Was it a $100 bill or what was it?

Tommy: Look it up. Banksy pulls notes from art. Like he was doing it as an art installation, throwing money or something, but then had to like, nah, I'm not doing that anymore.

Josh: You could see that happening. Venmo. Do you use Venmo?

Unknown: Yeah. Venmo or Square Cash.

Josh: What's the deal with Venmo?

Unknown: It's great. Just makes it so simple to, uh, transfer money between people. You don't need any of the bank account details or anything like that. You just link your own details to the app and you can use it to send money to anybody. It's really good. There's a lot of places in the US, I'm sure you guys saw it, where they don't like to split bills. Yeah, like in New York, if you go to a restaurant, they're really, really big on not splitting bills.

Josh: So what do you reckon?

Unknown: So 5 years ago, that was a huge mess if you'd go out with a group of people.

Josh: It's bullshit because I, um, even, uh, last weekend went out to dinner with Jordan Michaelides, went to a Persian—

Tommy: paying, wouldn't he?

Josh: Yeah, he's got a vibe. We, um, we, uh, we had Persian—

Tommy: met him.

Unknown: Yeah.

Josh: Oh yeah. And so we had Friday night drinks. And so we were, um, uh, got to the end of the night, it was time to pay. We're at a Persian place in Prahran and I, uh, I said, oh, can we just, uh, split this 50/50? And they said, uh, no, sorry, no split bills, right? And so I said, I'm like, okay, in that case, that's fine, we don't need to split bills. I just want to pay, uh, on two different cards.

Tommy: Which I—

Unknown: what happened?

Josh: Because it fucking pisses me off.

Unknown: Sometimes they'll go for that over actually splitting the bills because at least they don't have to move items around and figure out—

Josh: that's the whole thing. But that's what, that's what I was wanting, right? So I'm like, Maybe it's in the framing, so I'll say this.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And then anyway, the lady says, you're a bitch. No, no, what she said, she said, um, she piped up from around the counter who she was like doing something else. You said, oh no, we can't do it because then we're going to pay double GST and tax. I said, I was like, okay, GST is a percentage, all right?

Unknown: So 10% making up reasons.

Tommy: Yeah, so 10% And so, and then, um, so were you living in Australia when they brought GST in?

Josh: Yeah, yeah, big deal.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: Um, as in, I actually meant that is a big deal, not just you, John Howard.

Tommy: Who was it?

Josh: John Howard? Yeah, yeah.

Tommy: Just adds 10% to everything. No, adds a tax to the— it's full.

Josh: And so anyway, yeah, it was annoying because I wanted to enter into it a bit more, and then Jordan's like, ah, I'll just get it and Josh, you pay. And I was like, you stole that argument from me, Jordan. You know, I could have really Or wasn't it Persian?

Tommy: Isn't— wasn't it just a tariff?

Josh: Yeah, it was a classic tariff. But, um, I know what you're doing here.

Tommy: No, no, I want to pay in 2 cards. No, you can't.

Josh: Yeah, it was the opposite of a tariff. They weren't helping me at all. Yeah, it was— they were nagging me.

Tommy: I think if you pushed, if you pushed it, you could have got it. It's like, mate, the guy was shocked. This card only has this and this card only has this.

Josh: The guy was— when I said about the 10% thing, He was like, his eyebrows like going crazy. He was like, started blinking. He's like, ah, sorry, um, maths wasn't my— like, I could tell that if his colleague wasn't there, he would have just done it.

Tommy: What if you said, I'll give you a tip of $10? Did you? I mean, no, no, because then it's at that point it's too confusing.

Josh: Well, the whole thing is, I was like, we were the only people in the restaurant. Yeah, they fucked it. Like, they've fucked it forever. Like, I'm not going back there.

Unknown: It usually works out like for the servers, if they split the bills, they usually end up with a better tip anyway.

Josh: Yeah. Well, the thing is, like, Melbourne obviously doesn't have that whole tipping thing. But no, the— was the food good? Yes. But the thing was that the food was good based on what I had. You're opening the Twizzlers. Just on the ground. That's fine. Blow on it. Do you want some Twizzlers?

Unknown: I'm alright for now.

Josh: Yeah. So the food was good for us, like for Bree and I, because we know exactly what we want. But Jordan, obviously he—

Tommy: Brought his blender.

Josh: Yeah, he's known as the guy that he used to have to blend his food. And so he, he wanted to go. I think he wanted to go the same option. He's like, yeah, man, I'm going to get what you get, whatever you get, whatever you get. And then like, you see Lauren being like, you know, if you fucking have what he has, you're going to be up all night. And then so he's like, then the fucking last minute he's like, oh, I'm going to get the fish. I'm like, what, bro? What happened? So I gave him some of mine. The fish was dry, to answer your question. So his fish was like, and it looked, yeah, it was very, it was sort of a strange thing. And the other thing too is my favourite dish in Persian is kashk-e-badamjun, which is eggplant. And the way they do it is like they, um, they crush up like walnuts and stuff. Like it's eggplant with crushed up walnuts and then like cheese curd. And Lauren was allergic to, um, uh, walnuts, and so she couldn't have that. So she had to— and then Jordan said, I'll have to brush my teeth before I kiss you tonight. All right, mate.

Tommy: But to you?

Josh: No, I just love the idea of Jordan is real brushing his teeth. Yeah, gotta get it out.

Tommy: Glyn, you missed the first Adventure Club, mate. I know, it's very sad.

Unknown: No good. Next one, maybe.

Josh: No good as in? It was a no good day. You saw the Insta stories, eh?

Unknown: No, but, um, I was thinking there might have been more people out of frame that I didn't see.

Tommy: Exactly, mate. We needed 15 people to take that photo.

Josh: No, we actually, we hired people for the photo.

Tommy: No, I've, I think I've worked out how you have a lot of people come and it's including alcohol in the event because it was very easy to get people like 18 to 20 people, I think, you know, whatever it was over that time to a Friday night drinks. So maybe I want to like wrap together, could be a pub, pub crawl. That is the Adventure Club. So it's like a Friday night. You sort of start in one location. Sort of. I'm just trying to explain. I don't like the idea.

Josh: I don't like the crawl bit.

Tommy: We're not calling it a pub walk.

Unknown: Sorry, depends how well it goes.

Josh: Yeah, well, I just feel like we don't need to move. Let's just settle in at one place.

Tommy: That's a bit of fun though. Some larrikins that I knew, which was, you know, probably not safe for them to be doing this, it was like this booze cruise and it was use it like they'd get bikes, old shitty bikes, start, get on the train, head down to like Sandringham, end of the line, and then start the pub there and they'd all cruise down, you know, to like probably 5 different pubs along the way. And by the end, they're buying food each time, mate. They're not that responsible.

Josh: What does that mean?

Tommy: Why are they having nibbles each time? Like, why would you do that? Like, what comes to your mind as a non-drinker? Why are you thinking that? Are they having—

Josh: hungry? Well, you're going to a pub.

Unknown: Yeah, but they're not going for the food.

Tommy: No, they're going for—

Josh: they're just going for the alcohol.

Tommy: Maybe you get a bit of nibbles, but it's not like—

D: what's the point? You're You just exhaust the crowd and you move on to the next one.

Unknown: 2 non-drinkers here.

Josh: Where am I mate?

Unknown: What's the point?

Josh: Is that what happens?

Unknown: What's the point?

Tommy: Have they got nibbles?

D: You're just sick of the vibe and you move to the next place. The drinks are all the same.

Josh: Yeah, exactly.

Tommy: Have you been on a pub crawl? Yes.

D: Yes.

Tommy: Yes.

Unknown: It's like a classic uni thing to do, really.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: It's like there's an adventure in it. You start at one, you're like, oh, off to the next place, boys.

Unknown: You pick people up, you drop people off. Yeah.

Tommy: You meet us along the way.

D: Where are you now?

Josh: Where does Bond club fit into it?

Unknown: End of the night?

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Potentially whoever makes it. But then you're too sloppy by the time you get there. Think about it. By the time you get to your 5th venue, you've probably had 2 drinks at each. If you're— yeah, if you're capable and then you're done. And so there's walking. It's like go through the gardens. It's good fun. So you'd start, start in Abbotsford. You could like cruise up, walk through the sort of Fitzroy Gardens, find—

Josh: What shoes are you wearing? Are you wearing like—

Tommy: For you, just wear your shoes.

Josh: Yeah, my Asics.

D: It's too much walking otherwise.

Unknown: You're not—

Tommy: got your bloody tappers on. I mean, you haven't got your suit shoes on.

Josh: You know who would be great at a pub crawl?

Tommy: Pete Sheppard.

Josh: Pete Sheppard. But also Jason, our accountant. Yeah, I think he'd be really good. He'd be great. And he'd be able to walk long distances in tidy shoes.

Tommy: Tully too, because like I've seen her just rocking whatever they are. She's got just whatever shoes, like they're like Converse or whatever. I feel like she'd, you know, get a quick pace on to keep the gronks in check. But I think, yeah, pub cruise anyway.

Josh: I didn't know how to explain why Why? What? No, I get it. Just nothing on boats. The idea of doing like a booze cruise because you get boat sick. Yeah, but also boats— no, it is river sick. River sick.

Tommy: Yeah, it could be because you can't go— I mean, it's half seawater, half— I think just like—

Josh: but also you're just like in sort of— and also you have the experience the last time you shit yourself was on one of those experiences.

Tommy: I'm happy, I'm happy to face my fears. Yeah, you won't be allowed on the boat.

Josh: They'll be like, hang on, were you 2000 12, are you?

Tommy: No, but I think it's, uh, I think it'll be a sure way to get people in. And what you could actually do is take a $50, um, it's sort of like a buy-in, $50.

Josh: That's what I'm worried about actually, just the money.

Tommy: Yeah, you don't, then just go, come, just come, bring cash.

Josh: So can we just, well, why don't we, we just get a deal. Is it too much to contact all the pubs beforehand and say, hey, There's going to be—

D: Yes, time.

Josh: There's going to be 20 of us.

D: How do you know when to leave one pub?

Tommy: When someone yells.

D: Yeah.

Tommy: Who's yelling? I don't know. Glenn sounds like he's the guy that would do a bit of yelling. Hey, you were off alcohol. How are you going?

Unknown: I think I told you I was planning on going down to Daytona for the Daytona 500, and that would probably be the end of it.

Tommy: That was not the end of you.

Unknown: Yeah, that was supposed to be second week of February. Our plans fell through for the 500. We didn't end up going. So that brought the end of drinking date forward a couple of weeks to Super Bowl Sunday.

Tommy: Oh yeah, yeah, you had to allocate it.

Unknown: So I've been trying to behave myself since then.

Tommy: But what did you— had you give it a good nudge?

Unknown: Ah, no, it wasn't too bad.

Josh: On the plane when you're coming here, do you get on the— no, no, you don't drink anything? Oh, it's a red wine.

Unknown: Yeah, something with food to maybe, uh, help sleep a little bit, but Nobody likes a hangover on a plane.

Josh: Does it help you sleep, do you think? Okay, because I was, um, talking to someone about— because I went to bed tipsy the other night, like I just sort of fell into bed, and they were saying, oh, you're not meant to do that, you're meant to stay— like, what, stay awake until you're fine to go to bed? What do you think's right?

Tommy: I'm just thinking of like CCTV footage of this giant baby It's like a young child who's got into the alcohol cabinet but doesn't know what to do. But just, I think it'd be really funny, just your joint CCTV'd up while you just— JJ's drinking red again.

Josh: Yeah, well, it's always around like you, a movie. I don't have— like, Bree wanted to watch Forrest Gump.

Tommy: It's a good flick when—

Josh: if you're drinking.

Tommy: Yeah, is it?

D: Well, that was a weeknight as well.

Josh: Yeah, it may not have been that night actually. I went to bed early though from that, but I didn't realise that he actually, um, the metal bits fall off and he runs normal. Not to ruin it.

Tommy: Well, he runs out of the house, he's like limping, and then he's—

Josh: and then it's like kids are chasing. I understand why all these films— seems very common that there's a bunch of guys in like an old ute or whatever chasing people. Yeah, it's happened in multiple films. Yeah. Um, uh, Glyn, uh, Mr. 97 turns 21 at the end of the year. What should we do in regards to a party, do you think?

Unknown: That's a good question.

Tommy: What'd you do for your 21st?

Unknown: Uh, what did I do for my 21st? I was still in Australia. Um, I don't think we did anything too crazy. It was, uh, your typical suburban hire a hall kind of thing, I think.

Josh: Oh yeah, hire a hall. Fuck, we could hire a hall. We could definitely hire a hall.

Unknown: How big was it?

Josh: Oh yeah, fuck yeah. Could we hire the Veneto Club?

Tommy: There'd be a room.

Josh: I'd love to do a speech or whatever.

Unknown: You could hire it and not tell them and just hold a function in amongst the pokies.

Josh: Oh, definitely true.

Tommy: Um, I love that though. 21st at a, uh, at like a scout hall, something old and dingy, bit dusty floor. That's great. You get— we pay for some sound and lighting. Oh yeah, DJ, you know, like even a jukebox, or we'd get someone on the decks.

Josh: Scooter could be in charge of like all AV stuff.

Tommy: Imagine if we got Grant Smiley.

Unknown: His return.

Tommy: You could easily get you a solid DJ to play.

Josh: Who else could we get? So who would be at the guest list? Tully. Would she make a speech?

D: Sure.

Josh: Okay, who else do we need to—

Unknown: What would she talk about?

Josh: LA? Good question. Yeah, I think she's just— yeah, little sort of I could imagine her making like a movie in iMovie, like taking all the clips.

Tommy: So let's— I mean, we've got a video production company, but I'm sure we could do—

Josh: I feel like the 21st part of the thing is like somewhat like shit clips. Yeah, shit. A shit video with all the shit at it. Holding on to the shots. Vertical video.

Tommy: How many friends do you reckon if you were just to put a number out there of who you could get to your party in terms of your friends?

Josh: Why are we turning the show so sad?

D: Yeah, literally. As in people I want there?

Tommy: Yep.

Josh: If you're not comfortable—

D: less than 10.

Tommy: Okay, let's go.

Josh: Which what he really means is less than 5, and he's also including his—

Tommy: without offending people—

Unknown: not including colleagues.

Josh: Yeah, 3. They can't be on our Slack channel.

D: Um, no, I mean Yeah, I mean, of my mates that are outside of the show, there's maybe like 7.

Tommy: So we've got 7 people at the hall.

Josh: Yeah, geez.

Tommy: So, you know, so we had a hall, you could use this room.

Josh: Yeah, we don't need a hall. Why do we need so much space though?

Tommy: I mean, so 7 people, that would be great if we had a percentage up on the wall at the party of like people beyond 7. Mason's friends and then 90 95 other people.

Josh: Chairman Rick would be there. Can you see what date?

Tommy: Like, include your parents, include your friends if you want to invite your auntie from NZ.

D: It'd be 10.

Tommy: Still 10? Jesus, I was trying to give you a bit more there.

Josh: Can you look up what episode number it will be?

D: Sure.

Tommy: Oh yeah, what's, um, 1st of November? 1st of Nov?

Josh: It's your birthday. Saturday. So it's—

Tommy: Is it a Saturday?

Josh: No, I don't know. So it's, it's a Saturday the 7th right now. And so what's the, um, what, how many days? So it's episode 630. What episode number?

D: 241 days. So that's so 871.

Tommy: And what day is your birthday?

D: It's a Sunday.

Tommy: Oh, that's great because you do Saturday night into Sunday.

Josh: So 870.

Tommy: That's so good. 8:71.

Josh: 8:71 is on a Sunday, but we're doing a Saturday show.

D: Yeah, great.

Tommy: We do a show from the—

Josh: all right, so what date is that? Let's put it in the cows. Yeah, Glenn, do you reckon you could make it?

Unknown: I'll check.

Josh: November?

D: Yeah, we can have 11 people.

Josh: I thought you don't like— Glenn was part of the team. What's the, um No, I think it's one of those ones you—

Tommy: we can— over the year we can start taking some suggestions. But the first one, I think it's locked in. Hall. Yeah, I love it. It's like Balwyn in Balwyn. Just find one.

D: Greythorne Park, there's a scout hall.

Josh: Oh, is that your old primary school?

D: No, no, Greythorne Park is just like a booking site.

Tommy: Can you look it up? What, hiring Greythorne?

Unknown: Gotta get in early.

Tommy: Park.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah. What about your primary school?

D: Yeah, Greethorn Primary School.

Tommy: Nah, I don't know if you can hire— not hiring primary schools. No way. Scout halls, that is. Make some cash.

Josh: Footy clubs.

Tommy: Footy clubs.

Josh: Yeah, they're off season.

Tommy: Sandringham, sick. It's in Sandringham. There's like some of the footy clubs have great views. Anything, Sivs?

D: Yeah, we can hire it.

Tommy: How much?

D: You have to send an email. I mean, you have to fill in a form.

Josh: Classic. Talking about filling forms, do we have, um, a business hire only?

D: Do we have public liability insurance?

Tommy: Yeah, we do. We're holding an event. This is great. It's a business event.

D: Do we need a kitchen, toilet, outside area, tables and chairs?

Josh: Yes.

Tommy: Just chuck it all in. Great. Are you going to email them?

Josh: Do they have an internal AV person or are we going to have to hire externally?

D: Look, to be fair, I don't even know if they have a screen.

Josh: What do we do with security?

Tommy: Um, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know a guy who runs a security company. Up in shit.

Josh: How many would we need? What, you need one security guard per 10 people?

Tommy: No, no, no, it's not a licenced venue, so it's—

Josh: oh, alcohol or no alcohol? If it's not licensed, can we still have alcohol?

Tommy: No, I'm saying if it's— I think if it's a licenced venue that is selling alcohol, they might have to do some security stuff. There is some, there is some, uh, rule Would we just have—

Josh: Glenn, what would the expectations be if you're attending? Finger food and like beer and wine?

Unknown: Yeah, beer and wine. And then, uh, Tommy can smuggle in some, some harder booze perhaps. Someone's gonna have to get their responsible serving of alcohol certificate.

Josh: Oh yeah, who do we know? I'm sure we know people.

Tommy: I know someone who does.

Josh: Maybe, um, Hayden Dibb tattoo.

D: 18th and 21st birthday parties and schoolie celebrations are not permitted.

Tommy: Well, you know what, it's our 870th episode party.

Josh: Yeah, I wonder why they've got so much pushback.

D: Why can you do— that doesn't make sense. What if you're 19 and you want to throw a party? Or 20?

Tommy: Nah, losers do that.

Josh: Yeah, I don't think it's a thing, but no. Okay, um, I'm excited for that. Well, we need to start getting any suggestions. If people have them, they can email us.

Tommy: Otherwise, if you want stickers or be a part of the VIP Gronk Squad, what do they have to do, Sams?

D: Uh, go to thedailytalkshow.com/gronks and fill in the form.

Tommy: We've had a few people submitting their, uh, addresses. Who—

Josh: any favourite addresses? I'm joking. We've just— we're darling.

Tommy: You're head of privacy, aren't you, Mr. Sams?

Josh: Yeah, definitely. Um, yeah, so it's all trusted.

Tommy: All right, hopefully, Glenn, you're back in Melbourne for some reason.

Josh: We'll find her on that day. We have a reason.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, there is. No, there's a— I'm talking about someone pays to you for you to come over.

Josh: Oh, that would be great. Would you do a bit of a, like, a, um, a kappa type of thing where we fly you the longest way around in a tuxedo?

Unknown: That sounds terrible.

Josh: It'd be good fun though. The hand sanitizer would be helpful.

Tommy: You'd need a bigger bottle.

Josh: It doesn't work, the hand sanitizer thing. That's, that's what they're reporting. And they're also saying, guys, it's not a reason to not wash your hands, which is a big wake-up call for me, to be honest.

D: Yeah, you don't wash your hands, you just sanitize.

Josh: I do, but I go very light because we've got the Dettol outside the toilet. So I'm like, I don't soap it, I just, and then I go straight.

Tommy: I mean, peanut M&Ms, uh, A classic case of just contamination. Contamination. I found myself like, I touched my nose or something and I was like, I realised you could probably watch it back. And then I started pouring them into my hand.

Unknown: That's fine.

Tommy: I was like, that's disgusting.

Josh: All right, Glenn, thanks for coming in.

Unknown: Thanks for having me.

Josh: Yeah, you'll have to, you definitely have to come for that. How often are you going to be in before the end of the year, do you think?

Unknown: Yeah, I'll be, my nephew's coming over to visit me in the US in a few weeks and I'll be flying him all the way back here.

Josh: So what is that?

Tommy: Yeah, what day?

Unknown: Uh, April, first week of April.

Josh: Oh, perfect, mate.

Tommy: You're here for a weekend?

Unknown: Friday night.

Josh: Should we organise a drink?

Unknown: Wednesday to Saturday.

Josh: Wednesday to Saturday, the first week. So did we say the first week of April then?

Unknown: It's like the 6th or something like that.

Tommy: You might have stuff on, but we'll try and coincide with some drinks.

Josh: Yeah, Venero Club, maybe. We'll see how we go. All right, let's do the talk show. Uh, see you tomorrow, guys.

Tommy: See you guys.
