Tongue Pics

Josh: It's The Daily Talk Show, episode 694.

Tommy: What's happening, guys? What's going on? Happy HB— DHR— what is it?

Mason: GBHDI.

Tommy: GBHDI.

Josh: It's Georgia Boys Humble Wednesday. I'm pumped.

Tommy: Yeah, mate, I'm pumped. I found a fiver before, guys. I'm absolutely flying. You said it was on your wall.

Josh: Did you mean walk, or was it actually You found it.

Tommy: Oh, I didn't say wall. Ah, fucking look how excited I was. I was so excited I wrote wall instead of walk.

Josh: Wall. Why is it on my wall?

Tommy: Thanks, George.

Josh: Why is your mum in the chat saying, hi, don't blame George today, please? What's going on? Oh, I don't know.

George: I think because yesterday I was, uh, slightly low energy and not great on the tech when usually I am.

Tommy: Oh, that's right, that's right.

George: No, that was Blame Monday. No, that was the day before. I don't know.

Josh: What I'm curious about, Karen still hasn't added me on Instagram.

George: Really? Yeah.

Josh: I'm thinking about moving my Insta to private just so she can't be doing a sneaky cheque without a follow, you know.

Tommy: Force her to follow me.

George: She was asking me, she was like, yeah, she said, why does he want me to? How does he know that I'm not following him? I said, oh, he just knows. He would have seen that, that you were following Tommy, and then, and then he would have been upset about it.

Josh: It's not how it happened, but— Is she following you?

George: Maybe I feel like not following anymore because he seems a bit weird.

Tommy: I mean, the reality is you don't know someone is outside of your window looking in when it's pitch black. They just do. They're just looking in. That's the reality of it.

Josh: I mean, the thing— would you prefer a friend policy on Instagram like Facebook where It all has to be mutual. That's a no.

George: Me?

Josh: No, no, I was just—

George: no, I don't think so.

Josh: Okay, we like the whole follow, follow thing. Just—

Mason: well, it's— if you— if you follow them back, then it's mutual. I mean, that's true. It's, it's great. You just don't follow them back if you don't want to.

George: It's great.

Tommy: I've left a few hanging. About 6 years I've got someone hanging.

George: Really?

Tommy: Could you accept—

Josh: could you accept someone right now from that's been sitting in your friend request.

Tommy: When I was living in Shepparton, Superstar, I had a bunch of randos add me. No, I'm just— here we go, um, 3 years ago, 3 years ago, 4 years, 6 years.

Josh: Definitely give the person who has been sitting there—

Tommy: I like this one, I like this one. I actually, actually have bumped into this girl since living in Melbourne. Sally just confirmed after 6 years. Sorry to make you wait, babe.

Josh: Sally's dear, why have you taken so long?

Tommy: Yeah, I actually, Sally was great. Worked at a coffee shop, friends of friends. We like, you know, there was some circles that sort of went out on the weekends and she was a part of it and lovely, lovely. I just left it too long and then I just was like, oh no. Then I bumped into her at Oasis Bakery, one of my favourite establishments. And she just grabbed me, said, Tommy! And I looked at her and said, hi, uh, what's your name again? I said that. I was like, fuck it. What's your name again?

Josh: Sally.

Tommy: And then I was like, oh my God, yes, Sally, Sally, how are you? What are you doing in Melbourne? You're living down here? You know, but, um, anyway, Sally's my mate now. I wonder if she'd see it and be like, what the fuck? I don't— I didn't ask to be Tommy's friend. Who's Tommy?

Mason: Caz has just followed you, Josh. She's just said in the chat, done. Takes her to 53.

Josh: Robbie has asked Caz, where's my follow? So it's really opened up a bit of—

Mason: Can I have a follow, Caz? That'd be nice.

Tommy: Caz, I'll follow you back.

Josh: I think I was already— I think I was following Caz, or maybe I requested and she hadn't sort of, um, allowed it yet. Also, Grace is saying on the chat that she just got a delivery from the Book Room Collective. Oh, that's right.

Tommy: That's nice. George, if I, um, do you reckon I have to be friends on Facebook with your mum for me to crash at her place if I happen to be in Byron? What's up? What do you reckon?

George: No, I reckon, I think you guys are, you can do it. You can, you guys can stay at us for sure. I'm saying, I'm speaking on behalf of mum.

Tommy: All right, thank you.

George: All right, uh, say something in the chat now.

Mason: We don't want 54.

Josh: Well, the chat is going off because I've started— F4F, says Jake. I agree.

Mason: Follow for follow.

Josh: Follow for follow. So I've started using the WhatsApp.

Tommy: Yeah, it's great. I mean, much time required on your end? How are you feeling about it?

Josh: Absolutely loving it though. So I've got— I set up my phone and like the iPhone 7. And so I even took the— like, I love the Quad Lock., but just to sort of make it feel extra naughty, I don't have a case on it, so it feels real. So like, it's— yeah, it's— so I've sort of just loved the feeling of the 7. Yeah, it is nice, isn't it? Yeah, yeah.

Tommy: I mean, are you in notification heaven?

Mason: Polish.

Tommy: Like, is it coming? Is it coming back? Are you getting people responding to you? I sent you feet shots last night. Uh, did you? I mean, yeah, I said, um, because I didn't know. I'm trying to understand. I thought that it was going to be— because I'm in a bunch of like— WhatsApp for me is purely just group chat and everybody can see, like I could grab someone's number out of the group chat. So I was thinking, is this just gonna be one free-for-all? There's 100 people in this chat. And then I just, I wrote back to it, Mr. 97, I said, is this a closed group? Or because I'm wanting to know if you want me to send through those feet shots you've been asking for, which was—

Josh: I appreciate you sending them through. Shannon's asked a good point. She said, Josh, For someone who doesn't like group messages, you're now head of the WhatsApp situation. Is that correct? Discuss, please. So, I have individual conversations going with around 90 Gronks right now.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And it's just like, so thank you, Andrew, for your message. Rachel says, I'm watching, don't have a YouTube account. This is coming straight through the WhatsApp.

Mason: This is live.

Josh: This is live right now. So feel free to message through the WhatsApp. But, um, it's— I wonder if I can turn notifications off on the computer because it's sort of— it's gonna go wild.

Tommy: We need someone somewhere just dedicated to just going through that message, you know, messaging service, looking at them for the show.

Josh: It is so much fun.

Tommy: Like someone remote, uh, typing in stuff and it comes across the screen or something, you know. In the future we can sort of start bringing in that.

Josh: I'm happy to definitely—

Mason: all the API stuff.

Josh: Yeah, now let's just have to pay.

Tommy: Sorry, mate, you lost me there.

Josh: Uh, HB's listening, she says thanks for the reminder. Uh, Andrew White's actually— he's, uh, Whitey's listening whilst he's making coffee. But the great thing is it's just something that you can sit on the couch. I was watching The Castle last night and just texting Gronks. Dr. K and I were going back and forth Talking about CrossFit, talking about mechanical keyboards.

Mason: Oh, great.

Josh: Yeah, real good stuff.

Tommy: I mean, yeah, yeah. Is this the romance of, you know, a new relationship up front? You sort of flat out and it's sort of, you know, just sort of starts to even out, get a bit more normal.

Josh: Well, no, because the thing is it's like being in a relationship with 96 people, so you can sort of pick your flavour who you like.

Mason: Um, who do you feel like tonight?

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And so, Isaac actually messaged and asked if he would get merch if he sent tongue— how many tongue photos for a mug? I said 5.

Tommy: Well, absolutely not.

Mason: 5?

Josh: 5 tongue photos. If he sends me 5 tongue photos on the WhatsApp.

Tommy: Not enough?

Mason: Nah, nah, not enough. I could send you 5 tongue photos.

Tommy: I know you would.

Josh: I think you probably have.

Tommy: It's pretty ridiculous seeing as we don't have mugs to give away.

Josh: I haven't said how long it's going to take.

Tommy: It makes sense if you said But why do we want tongue flutters?

Josh: Hmm?

George: Why do we want tongue flutters?

Josh: It's more of a control thing I guess. Doesn't have to be tongue—

Mason: You're at our mercy! Send us tongue pics!

Josh: That's what being a Gronkh is all about. It's sort of leaning into the whole... What about money? Money for a mug. Doge cash sent to the PO box. PO Box 400 Abbotsford Victoria 3067.

Mason: If you wanna send more cash.

E: George.

Tommy: Yeah, George wants that hard money. He wants that cash. He wants that fiver. What's that fiver action?

Josh: It's really nice. How does it smell?

Tommy: Well, I can smell it now because I washed it with soap, because I was thinking, is this a setup? Is this a COVID setup? And, uh, we'll never know. We will know in 14 days if I just come down with a savage, savage, uh, fever.

Josh: Could be.

Tommy: But is it, is it time, guys? Is it time?

Josh: I think so. I wanted to ask very quickly because Grace says no one wants a tongue photo. George, if you were in a, um, in a new relationship, or even just in your relationship now, if you wanted to send a thirst trap, or if you wanted to sort of be provocative but it had to be TG, what sort of image would you— like an image that you could send that's sort of a bit of how you're going? But it's completely PG. Legs.

George: Legs. Yeah.

Mason: Would you?

George: I got quite, quite nice legs.

Tommy: Do you, Joel?

Mason: What's nice about them?

Tommy: Yeah.

George: Good, good shape.

Tommy: Shape what your mama gave you.

George: They're slightly hairy from like the knees down, but my thighs are smooth.

Mason: Really?

George: Actually, under my thighs. My thighs, they got a bit of hair.

Josh: So like an under-thigh shot would be a thirst trap?

E: Yeah.

Mason: Is that under thigh?

E: Okay.

Josh: Yeah.

George: I don't know about that. Like, yeah, you're— Stop judging his nudes. Not your quad.

Tommy: Quads.

E: Yeah.

Josh: Imagine how you're doing, maybe a photo. Like if you were to set that up so it looks natural, 'cause you don't wanna just send a leg photo without anything else. You could probably put a remote and be like trying to decide what to watch on TV. What do you think?

George: Oh yeah, that's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good.

Mason: But you'd go, you'd go the tongue action, wouldn't you, Josh?

Tommy: Just—

Josh: no, no, the whole tongue, that's just, that's a bit of a joke. But, um, anyway, why everyone's here— 40 people.

Tommy: This is— sorry, hang on, I was just going to say, this is the closest. You know how I said I've never sent a nude? I've never sent, I've never sent any sort of private part photo. I found this in my in my Google Photos the other day. It is the only thing I've sent to a female that is of my body. That is, I don't know, you tell me. It was when I was actually fucking ripped.

Josh: Yeah, you look pretty.

Tommy: Look how much more muscular I am. Jesus Christ. Yeah, that's me, bro.

Josh: That's actually—

George: I thought you were joking.

Tommy: No, dude, that's amazing. I was so upset when I saw this photo. I'm like, dude, what the fuck's happened to me?

George: Look at that.

Josh: I mean, part of it's lighting too, like just it's coming from one side.

Tommy: Oh, piss off, mate. With the right light, a lot of hard work in there. I was fucking lifting, bro. I was lifting and I got— and I don't think she's impressed. I don't think she was impressed. Anyway, my wife was. She saw it the other day.

Josh: Oh my God, who's that guy?

Tommy: Was that you? Was that you? Fuck, you should get your back tattooed.

Mason: She's slightly disappointed now.

Tommy: Yeah, I did. My muscles were just so big, it sort of just ate it.

Josh: It almost like you're— Anyway, cleavage. All right, well, let's, let's do this. So this is the week 3 of, uh, Georgie Boy's Hump Day Replay. George, anything you want to say before we kick it off?

George: Uh, no, not really. They're just— they're getting quite ridiculous.

Josh: But let them have it.

Mason: Okay, here we go.

George: Here we go.

Josh: Here is, uh Georgie Boys.

George: All right, I gotta do my today.

Mason: Here we go.

George: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Today I'll be drinking Familia Zonin Prosecco. And please enjoy this Hump Day Replay. It's Georgie Boys Hump Day Replay. On Friday night, we got in our limos, covered ourselves in cologne, because it was the TDTs formal.

Tommy: They still fit! Oh, actually, I've got to sort this hair out. Oh, that's better.

Josh: DJ Precious here rocking a bit of Rod and Gun.

Mason: This vomit stain's a lot worse than what I thought it was.

Tommy: Woodstock bourbon, and just to make it a little bit classy, a glass of red.

Josh: Cheers!

Mason: Oops.

Josh: Cheers, let's do this!

George: Queen Gronkh was in charge of giving out awards.

E: The king and queen Ebs and Grace.

George: No surprises there, those guys are an absolute power couple.

E: The best dressed male, Hayden Dibb.

George: If it was up to me, it would have gone to Nick Callan, but anyway, well done Hayden.

E: Best dressed female of the Daily Talk Show 2024 MOOC, Emma Lang.

Josh: Emma!

Tommy: Emma! Beautiful.

Josh: The one strap number is beautiful.

George: DJ Precious was back in form on Friday night and had a recommendation of a song we should be listening to.

Josh: Pete Murray's track Opportunity I have been playing non-stop all week, and I'd love for him to do it live on the show one day.

George: Performing his hit song Opportunity, Pete Murray. This week saw a whole lot of exclusives. Run the man, just go on, okay? Sorry, hit the I'm not gonna look because it's gonna make me laugh.

Mason: Grace and I are a thing. Yeah, it came up the other day in chat and I, I was sort of calling out, just calling it out just for banter.

George: Shh. One of the bigger ones was Josh's rebrand.

Josh: I'm the chores guy. That's what I do. That's my rebrand. And so that means everything from doing the dishes, washing clothes, the dust issue. You know, I was complaining about the dust. I could have just dusted it, so I'm going to do that now.

George: Josh may be the chores guy, but Tommy's got a very strong opinion on one type of vacuum.

Tommy: It's one of my favourite things to do, put some headphones in and vacuum, and with a cyclonic.

Josh: If it's not a cyclonic, I don't want it.

Tommy: Cyclonic vacuum is one that you see the spinning like a cyclone dirt, and so you're actually seeing the particles of the dust and the dirt and the shit that you're picking up. Mate, cyclonics are the way forward. I think most people—

Josh: Well, we're actually thinking about moving away from our Dysons.

George: However, things did get dark on the Daily Talk Show when it was revealed that Mr. 97 had been having a sexting relationship with Josh's partner, Bree.

Mason: I was messaging Bree midway through the show.

E: Why?

Mason: Just because of how loose you were getting.

Josh: So you thought it was appropriate just to message her?

Mason: I have officially showered. I was like, okay, great. And then she said, but not dressed, just chilling in my towel now, lol.

Tommy: We begin with that sexting scandal.

Josh: Sexting scandal.

Tommy: Sexting scandal.

George: A sexting scandal that has shocked a nation. Brianna, thank you so much for joining me tonight.

E: Look, I really appreciate you, um, giving me a voice, um, in all of this. I feel it's a setup. I've been set up. Um, I expected more from Mason. I expected more from, um, the relationship I have with him. Never sexted or texted the guy in my life.

George: You know, I believe you. I think he's blown it way out of proportion. I think the whole thing is ridiculous.

E: And, uh, I've actually got to go. Mason's FaceTiming me. See ya.

George: Okay. And of course, a huge thank you to the guests we had on this week. We always love having Tall Gronk Peter Shepherd on the show.

Josh: I think the why shouldn't change, but the what should definitely change and be flexible to context and circumstances like we're in right now.

George: We learnt lots from the show's accountant, Jason Robinson.

Tommy: Having that initial conversation to say, hey, this is my circumstance, do you think you can help me? And have that conversation and see what the potential is.

George: And we were lucky to hear some great storeys from Shane Jacobson.

Josh: Thanks to all the wonderful listeners who, you know, give a show like this its time to get an audience, because without an audience, we're kind of yelling into a shoebox. Never going to forget the Logies when I was there behind the camera. Shane walks in, he's on the red carpet, pushes all the celebrities to the side. Josh, he gives me a big hug. And yeah, I appreciate all the support over the years.

George: That's it from me. I've been Dodgy George. Good night, Australia. Love you.

Tommy: Oh mate, he's killed it. Back bigger and better than ever. Oh, pop that, mate. Oh mate, absolutely.

George: Jesus, you've absolutely smashed it.

Tommy: We come on.

George: Oh sorry, it's just a screen.

Tommy: Okay, because that was underwhelming, but the video was not.

Mason: Oh mate, the video, I mean, people are going crazy in the comments.

Josh: Uh, uh, Grace says amazing. Uh, Oliver says this is gold. Helen says Gemma's the best hot accountant. Um, tears, OMG, says Grace. Uh, Show Baker says, uh, this is too good. Um, yeah, this is—

Mason: Russ Key says love you, George, you killed it.

George: This is amazing. Thanks, guys.

Mason: So good.

George: Yeah, can I just say, yeah, What an actress.

Josh: Did you even do that? When, like, I'm like, hang on.

Tommy: Yeah, when does Sev do all these messages?

Josh: It's outrageous.

George: Exactly. How many times?

Josh: How long did that take to do the—

George: not long. She smashed— I just said like, this is what— it was her idea to be like, let's keep it a secret from Josh. And I was like, oh yeah, that's funny as.. And then she— we pretty much ran it, ran through it once, and then she just, just killed it. And I was like, you've done it, that's saved the video.

Mason: What about the Pete Murray stuff?

Josh: Oh, it's getting a lot of love, getting a lot of love. David says George has pipes. It was, um, thanks, Dad. The harmonising of the whole thing. I mean, how do you feel being in the studio on your own setting up the camera to do this stuff?

George: Well, the framing was a bit shit, so I had to like crop in and stuff like that. So not great about that. But to the keen eye, you would notice that I wasn't actually playing guitar because I don't know how. I was just drumming along. It was great. But the harmonies were sort of me. Yeah, they were me, I guess.

E: Yeah.

Mason: What does that mean?

Tommy: Parody law got us over the line with the music.

Josh: It was actually too good. I think it was just a straight cover. I recommend licensing.

Tommy: Yeah, he's gonna sue us. He's absolutely gonna sue us. Oh my God, I feel like, um, oh, I feel like, uh, I've eaten a big meal after every one of those. Like, I feel just like, oh, you know, I need a nap. So good. That was like great food, need a nap.

Mason: Love you, George.

George: Thanks. Well, thank you to everyone in the, in the chat. That's, uh, lovely.

Josh: And so, George, is this going to be, um, sustainable? I mean, we're—

George: just see everybody The hell am I going to do next week? Yeah. Oh mate, it's going to become a full drama.

Josh: It's going to become more than the show, I feel.

Tommy: Well, it's going—

George: Oh yeah. No, I was doubting myself today because like, you know, you guys are doing 12 shows a week and you're talking about some pretty deep topics and they're, you know, they get serious. Like the psychology episode Tommy was just amazing in. And then I was feeling bad because I've kind of created this spin-off version of the show that sort of makes everyone look like idiots and they're dumb.

Josh: And so was it either you were going to chat with Bree or you're going to have Tommy Syke as a surprise? I think it was good. Keep it light, George.

George: I mean, it's light. It's light and silly. That's the whole idea.

Tommy: No, it's great, mate. I just, uh, yeah, I don't know where you're going to next week, but I think You know, you've put more— you, you've put to use the office more than Josh and I have with all those angles you're shooting on and the content you're pumping out. It's unbelievable.

Josh: And, um, Instagram or our YouTube if you're listening on the podcast, uh, to check, cheque out the full video. Uh, on all the other videos, they're on YouTube as well. Yeah, we've posted them now. Uh, no, I got an email— oh, sorry, a WhatsApp from Oliver when I was chatting last night, and he had a suggestion for the Lifehack Club, which I actually think is quite good. He says, hey, I was thinking, what if the Lifehack Club had an episode where Sev teaches us to make a face mask? That would be awesome. My country has made it mandatory to have one, so a lot of people made their own. It would be cool to keep people safe in Australia too. What do you think?

Tommy: Love that. That is so good. Um, uh, Sevs, is that your boy Lex? Lex Freidberg or Lex? Lex, um, from Freedman. He, he's a part of some foundation that, uh, is— talks about— it's like something about masks. Anyway, he's got this great way of doing it. Do it with a t-shirt, old t-shirt. You cut it like just under the sleeves. And, um, anyway, I'm sure you could just rip it off. You You don't have to be the pioneer of the how to do it, but you can just take someone else's and make it your own.

Josh: Have you got a song?

Tommy: Just like George did with Pete Murray's tune.

Josh: He really made it his own.

Tommy: Forget Pete Murray. We don't need to get Pete Murray on the show.

George: We've got it. What do you mean?

Josh: That was Pete Murray.

George: He was in here.

Josh: Sebs, have you got a— have you got a, um, what's that called? A stitcher?

Tommy: A what?

George: Oh no, no sewing machine!

Mason: No, no, thank you.

George: Nah nah nah—

Mason: oh mum might have one.

Tommy: You don't need one for the ones I'm talking about.

Mason: You definitely wouldn't need a sewing machine and people can't follow along if you need a sewing machine.

Josh: Okay.

Mason: You just have a little thread and you'd thread it through the material and like that would be the strap for your head and then you've just got the cloth there.

Josh: Have you ever used... Yeah, go teach me.

Tommy: I've seen ones with rubber bands bits of string all different types. I mean, the thing is, I don't think they're going to make it mandatory in Australia. It's that way in LA at the moment.

Josh: I think it's still a fun project. I like the idea. Seb, have you ever used a needle and thread outside of some form of school?

E: No.

Josh: Like, George, have you?

George: Oh, no.

Josh: Okay.

Mason: Just like repairing stuff.

George: Like buttons and stuff?

Mason: Yeah, just like a button. But then I have to go to mum and ask her how to do it. So, I don't actually know how to do it.

Josh: Is it not just tie it at one end? Like, do a knot, pull it through, and then just loop it a few times?

Mason: Yeah. And then you're doing the tie off at the end.

Josh: Okay, that's the hard bit, is it?

Tommy: Have you ever been fishing, Josh?

Josh: I went Port Macquarie, 2000 and— 2002, I used— What, Josh?

Mason: How do you remember that?

George: How can you remember 2002 you went fishing? Huh?

Josh: What, you wouldn't remember? You don't remember when you went fishing?

Mason: Mate, I was 3 years old.

George: Oh, there you go.

Tommy: Look, to be honest, Josh, unless it hap— unless it happened in 2012, I have no recollection. I don't even know when my son was born. But 2012, mate, great year.

George: Great year.

Josh: Now, when I went, I actually used— I was obsessed. My dad's not really into fishing. And when I was growing up, he sort of— him and I, I think I was quite full-on as a child, and so there was a lot of mum saying, Richard, just absolutely— I don't know if you could believe it. But anyway, so yeah, he wasn't really into fishing, but once we did go on a catamaran in Vanuatu, and that's when I learned the word momentum. Because, um, Dad yelled when we were in the middle and I wanted to use the catamaran, like, use the, the thing, the, the turner thing, whatever thing. I don't know what the technology is, but he said, you fucked the momentum, and we're stuck in the middle of the water.

Mason: We couldn't move.

Josh: I was like, what's a momentum? So we're fucked, like, we can't move.

Tommy: Um, actually, anyway, you could get into fishing. Yeah, decide the Like, my dad used to take us fishing heaps, heaps when we were young. He's now like not really keen for killing animals, killing fish, which is— your dad, there's a lot of fish. Yeah, my dad, he's just like, can't—

Josh: funny about fish. Is he a vejo?

Tommy: Funny about— no, but hey man, he's the guy that took us bloody yabby hunting, fishing, like all these kind of things, you know. As a kid, he was doing it all, but I think he's actually got something that he doesn't like about it now. But I think you'd get around it. I wanted to go fishing with Bodie. My mum used to take me fishing as well when I was a little bit older, so I can imagine myself doing it with Bodie when he's a little bit older. But I think we should do a fishing trip, the three, like, yeah, that sounds like the Gronkhs fishing trip.

George: What about PewDiePie?

Josh: Just worried about motion sick of being on a boat, especially.

Mason: No, you're gonna go, no, full experience on the boat.

Josh: Or could we do it in the river?

Mason: Could we do it in the river?

Tommy: Yeah. There's some nice rivers that you can head up to, like you could do a fly fishing. You're probably catching less, you're catching less in the river.

Josh: Actually, fly fishing I could get around. So when Bree and I went to Tassie, it was off-season for fly fishing, but we stayed at a place that that's what they did, like it was a fly fishing—

Tommy: Oh yeah.

Josh: Sort of Airbnb. And it does, there is something nice and sort of slow and fun.

George: Aren't you flicking the line on the surface? Is that what that is?

Josh: There's a little bit of flick.

Tommy: You're holding the line. I've been, um, up in Queensland. There's some river, like rivers that run around the back of the properties out the back of, um, Coolangatta, maybe Coolangatta. Um, awesome fishing. Like you can fish off your back porch. I said, I know these guys that went to high school with, they live down in like, um, Patterson Lakes in Victoria, in Melbourne. And like these, these places probably like 45 minutes from the city with no traffic, but he fishes off— he fishes from his couch. He goes out onto the balcony, casts it into the river behind that sort of wraps out to the ocean or to the bay, and then he pulls it back in and sits on his couch and fishes. And he's caught some— he's caught a huge fish. He's fucking awesome. But I think there's some kind of camping fishing adventure trip that we can do definitely when we can, when we come out the other side, when we've got the Cybertruck.

Josh: But what about the— Yeah, the Cybertruck would be great. But I was only using in Port Macquarie, I was just using a hand reel and I was on my own.

Tommy: A hand reel.

Josh: And I was on this like tiny, you couldn't even call it a pier. It was basically a square and like a wooden square just next to the water. And but I got eaten alive by sand flies. Like I had to be inside the rest of the trip. I was that badly injured.

Tommy: Really? And you were picking them? You know what, I think Bodhi— Bodhi's a picker. He's got something on his— he's got a mozzie bite that now looks like a fucking— some kind of snake bite. It's ridiculous. He just won't stop picking it.

Mason: Doesn't everyone do it?

Tommy: Grab his hand.

Mason: No, like when you're a little kid, everyone does it.

Josh: No, no, I haven't had a scab in a long time. Why did we get so many scabs as kids?

Tommy: Just falling over. Falling over on the concrete, asphalt, running around, PE, skateboarding, rollerblading, all that shit. You're just putting yourself out there. Now we're just, nah, too precious. I don't want to get—

Josh: Shannon says she's allergic to sand flies. I reckon I am too, Shannon, with the experience that I had.

Tommy: What is it that you're allergic to? What are they doing? Like, are they putting something into your skin? And well, the, um, that seems weird, right?

Josh: I also, was it the same? No, this was another. This might have been Marimbula. I can't remember where it was, but I grabbed, like I was on a playground and I grabbed the playground and I put my hand on a bee. And my, like, it was like I basically got stung by the bee and my hand went so fat.

Tommy: Oh, it's not funny, but it is.

Josh: No, but so when, but the funny thing was obviously because of my thumb, the doctor thought that something was really wrong and then they took my other thumb.

Tommy: You need an upgrade ASAP.

Josh: Have you like, I remember going on one of those in California at Disneyland, what's it called? Adventureland, which is like part of Disneyland. And I went into a ride and they lock you in. And then I had like a bee come into my face.

Tommy: Oh no.

Josh: The thing is you can't fucking do it. Like when you're strapped in, You actually couldn't do anything. It was a nightmare. Are you allergic?

Tommy: I mean, your hand went up. Well, I don't know. Maybe that's—

Josh: I think so.

Mason: It is one of the things that you don't have.

Josh: We could test. How do we test?

Tommy: How do you test? Is there some sort of fingerprint test?

Mason: Sting you with a bee?

Josh: I could.

Tommy: You're an animal.

Josh: To be honest, I mean, that's not funny. That's like saying let's give someone that might have a peanut allergy some peanut butter to see what happens.

Tommy: Well, we don't know. So I see how it sort of You wouldn't be, yeah.

Josh: Why are you saying that?

Tommy: So if you've been bitten, only your hand has swollen? Yeah, yeah, your throat didn't close. You hear about the kids at primary school. I remember Ben, this kid, was severely allergic, like his throat would swell up, and he had a bee on his head and I pushed him into the pool. We were out swimming and he, uh, mate, he thanked me. He thanked me. Saved his life, to be honest.

Josh: Did you all— Is it compulsory in Australia when we were growing up to do swimming lessons? Has everyone here done swimming lessons?

Tommy: Yeah, I don't think it was compulsory, mate. Fireworks were still legal in Georgia's state. If they—

George: If—

Tommy: Sorry. If when we were growing up, it was— If fire— Like, fireworks must have been a— But it must have been legal, George, at your age. Were they still?

George: Yeah. Yeah. They weren't. Til I was probably 15, I reckon.

Tommy: Yeah. Yeah.

George: So, that would be—

Tommy: But it wasn't mandatory to do swimming lessons.

George: Don't know. We did them at school.

Tommy: This is why you don't call back times, George, because you don't have the razor-sharp memory like Josh.

George: Yeah, I'm trying to remember.

Josh: No, I think it's compulsory. It has to be compulsory.

E: He doesn't know.

Josh: I'm sure it's compulsory. But the— I've never swam in anything outside of an ocean or a pool. I've never swam in a lake or in a, um, a river. Rivers freak me the fuck out. Like, the fact—

E: the—

Mason: why? Why?

Josh: The sticks.

Tommy: Oh, okay. Yeah, sticks-wise, they're dangerous.

Josh: It's just like, just like, what's in the river? Unless I can see the whole— yeah, no, I'm not interested.

Mason: Yeah, no, I get it. It makes it— it's okay, it's okay when you've got like, um, I don't know, like pants on or something, like you've got something on your legs or you've got shoes on, but you don't need to be worried about any, any, uh, anything biting you.

Tommy: You're more worried about sticks stabbing.

Josh: Yeah, I'm worried about like just putting my— I mean, you couldn't do Yarra River, that would just be disgusting. You'd put your foot in a bike or something in like a Shane, you can swim up further.

Tommy: You can swim in, um, Warrandyte. There's an area you can swim. That's, um, still the Yarra River. Yeah, I've swum in the, the Murray River, which is great.

Josh: Do you know what we haven't done in a while, uh, on the sort of river thing and talking about, um, uh, when we're talking to Shane about his, his lifestyle at the moment, what he's doing, we did the whole our perfect day TJ, your perfect day, I think it involves some surfing and things like that. Now that you've completely changed your life, has your perfect day changed? Can you describe your perfect day, please?

Tommy: Nah, same, same again. Okay, same again.

Josh: It's up in the morning.

Tommy: Yeah, poached eggs in the morning, definitely. Moving on to a training session. I think my life would just— if I You know, outside of this, I would just be doing shitloads more training, just like focusing more on my health. I mean, it's like—

Josh: is it diminishing returns? Like, you see, like the definition that you had in your back, like at what point is it just like you're not feeling the difference anymore mentally, like the actual benefits? So like, as in, if you could, you get to—

Tommy: is it different? Like, how do you feel when you when you're muscular versus how do you feel when you're leaner, so you're lighter. There's, um, I sent you another photo. I was just really just sort of getting down on myself of where I've been and where I am. But, um, I— you feel— when you— when you're really fit, you feel fucking amazing, other than when you're training hard and you can feel shit. But there is something about like walking and just doing little tasks when you are fit. And they just— walking upstairs, you just don't even feel it. Like when you're cardiovascular fit and definitely there's something about it. Like, I haven't been there for a long time, like, I just remember feeling like I've— like, yeah, yeah, definitely. It's like, um, Sunshine Beach up in Queensland. Um, awesome, awesome. Just, you can— yeah, long stretches of beach and Beautiful.

Josh: Yeah, yeah. George, I mean, what's, what's your reality?

Tommy: You could do it. I could do it.

Josh: Yeah. What's your perfect day? Um, go into detail because we haven't really had yours, so let's get sort of blow by blow.

George: All right, wake up at 8 o'clock, have a nice breakfast.

Josh: Um, home cooked, or do you go to a cafe?

George: Home cooked. Why? And I don't know, it's nice being at home, having a nice cooked breakfast.

Josh: Okay, then who cooks it?

George: Uh, probably me.

Josh: Really? Your perfect day involves you cooking yourself breakfast? Are you being serious?

George: Well, okay, yeah, but is it more just you don't want to feel—

Josh: you don't have to say— it would seem a bit misogynist saying, okay, I reckon Hannam, like every day, especially after the tones and eye comments.

George: Yeah, exactly.

Tommy: Um, let the man through his day.

Josh: Sorry, go on.

George: I'll make breakfast in the morning for me and Hannah. We'll have a nice bacon and eggs, avocado, and, uh, and then we'll go for a walk and get a coffee, and then, uh, then walk around a bit more, then come home.

Josh: What's the location? Where are you based?

George: Uh, Fitzroy North.

Josh: Really? So same location?

Tommy: Okay, just talking about last Saturday.

Josh: Yeah, this is like my Red Brick.

Tommy: Are you gonna be working on, mate, are you working on your half-day replay as well? Yeah.

George: All right, dream big.

Tommy: Okay, put it this way, you've just won $10 million, so the cash is not an issue, location is not an issue. Just take it away, Georgie boy.

George: Living in Tokyo with Wake up, go for a walk down the street. Go and get ramen.

Josh: Do you have, did you say ramen?

George: Yeah, ramen. Yeah, breakfast ramen.

Josh: Do you have that? Is ramen a breakfast meal? I don't know much about ramen.

George: It's every hour of the day meal. And then walk around, meet up with a group of friends, probably 10 of us, go out for lunch and drink beers. And then we will go back to our hotels and—

Josh: or actually, not our hotels.

George: So, you're living in the hotel? No, I'll be living there. So, we'll go back to my house and then we will have some more food, play some games, and then we'll all go out for dinner and then go to a gig after and then come home.

Mason: How sustainable is this, George?

George: Well, it's my favourite time.

Mason: Drinking every day at midday.

Josh: Yeah.

George: Can't have your perfect day every day. I'm saying this is a one-off.

Tommy: Oh, he's a realist.

Josh: Yeah. Emma says, "Oh, I love that his perfect day is his normal life. You do you, George." Thank you.

George: I do have a perfect life, so.

Mason: You are.

Josh: I mean, that plays into your sort of chill, happy—

Mason: Calmness. Yeah.

Josh: Yeah. Happy-go-lucky. You're a happy-go-lucky guy.

George: Yeah, I am. I can't really say that about yourself, can you?

Josh: Yeah, you can.

George: You happy-go-lucky. I just, I'm just loving life, guys. That's it.

Tommy: He's loving it. That's good.

Josh: Any changes to you with the, with Perfecto?

Mason: Changes? Um, I think, I think same location and stuff.

Josh: Uh, I can't even remember. Can you reset for the people?

Tommy: Byron, I think you— I'm pretty sure you've just taken over Chris Hemsworth's house.

Mason: Yeah, yeah, definitely. Yeah, 100%. Chris Hemsworth's house in Byron.

Tommy: We can share that.

E: I'd—

Mason: right next to the beach.

Tommy: Fuck yeah.

Mason: Oh, right next to the beach. Um, yeah, and then it would be nice to have Grace there as well.

Tommy: Oh, there you go.

Josh: And so how does that change anything though? Like, are you But what do you do during the day?

Mason: Yeah, I mean, I still probably train in the morning.

Josh: Take the train.

Mason: Take the train. Take the bus. A lot of public transport.

Josh: Yeah.

Mason: Train in the morning. Hopefully together. And then, yeah, down at the beach. Maybe have like a dog. How old is this?

Josh: You're 25.

Mason: Okay, 25. Okay, yeah, 10 years away.

Josh: It's fine. Who said— what is he talking to?

Mason: George. George said that.

George: It was a joke. It was a joke.

Tommy: He's 15.

George: Didn't land it.

Mason: I mean, it, it depends. I was, I was questioning how many years it was. Because then that would involve like kids and stuff. But anyway, yeah, so go off, train on the beach, uh, and then go out. What are you gonna say? Here we go.

Tommy: I just, I just wanted to say hold off again. Okay, mate, keep it distant. Um, it's not about you anymore. This perfect day changes, baby.

Mason: Yeah, go out for breakfast. Um, and they can have like the, you know, avocado and eggs and all that. Coffee.

Josh: You don't even drink coffee.

George: You don't know.

Mason: It's for Grace.

Josh: Oh, that's nice.

George: What does she drink?

Mason: Uh, long mac topped.

Josh: Do you use your Aussie accent when you say that? Can we get a grab?

George: Just say that again.

Tommy: No, we got it clean.

Josh: I just want to get it as a— no, you got it.

Mason: You got— I think George got a claim.

Josh: Long mac topped.

Mason: Long Mac topped.

George: What does she drink? What does Grace drink for coffee?

Mason: Long Mac topped.

Josh: That's cool. You can just see that.

George: Look at that clean.

Mason: I think it's a latte. It's a latte with an extra shot, I believe.

Tommy: Yeah, but it's Perth speak. That's Perth speak.

George: Never heard that in my life.

Tommy: George has been a barista.

George: Have you ever heard that, Georgie boy? Topped before? No, I don't know what that means. Topped.

Tommy: Other than when you were signalling about that guy. Dodgy George.

Josh: Jeez. The, um, Grace is saying, 'Long Mac topped up.' Topped up. I'm pretty sure that the reason you said that, Seb, is because I'm pretty sure that one of Grace's friends in a comment said 'long Mac topped.' I do remember that as well. Is that where you picked that up from?

Tommy: Long Mac topped up.

Mason: Uh, I—

George: How topped up?

Mason: I don't know how topped up.

Tommy: What are you topping up a long mac for in the first place? It's long. You've gone the option of the—

Josh: Yeah, so you want a large short mac.

George: It's like my guys say, strong. It's two shots with a little bit of foam on top. And I'm assuming she wants a bit of hot milk or hot water. That's where you need to be clarifying. You need to clarify that bit. Yeah. Topped up with what?

Tommy: I mean, George, it could be also a strong long mac. Double shot. Well, Mac, we need confirmation on this. I didn't understand this translation. Translate it from Perth to Melbourne, please.

Josh: But Sevs might like Byron, like if you wanted to do the whole Western Australia thing. Like, there's some really nice beaches in WA if you didn't want to go Byron, like Broome.

Tommy: Yeah, are you talking about his perfect life?

Josh: Yeah.

Mason: Yeah, I mean, see, that could be like, it's just a flight, right? Like you're just dialling in how often.

Josh: It's a long flight. W—

Tommy: like, um, it's 5 hours from Brisbane to Perth, I'm pretty sure. 5 or 6, 5 and a bit.

Josh: It's a long time. Like if we want to go to LA, it's hard, I guess. So, but then, um, WA, you can go direct to London. Is that still a thing?

Tommy: God. Now it will be, it will be one day. I saw someone actually coming back from London to Melbourne and there was, it was on one of the big, big planes, like 2 other people on the whole plane. It looked ridiculous, crazy they're still even flying them. How much is that, that's costing them?

Josh: Uh, Russ says East Coast for life. Shannon says WA beaches are only second to Queensland beaches. The problem I do have, so I went to Broome, and Bri and I went there 2013, Christmas time. You couldn't go in the water, there was jellyfish and stuff.

Mason: Oh, really?

Josh: And I fucking, the idea of getting stung by jellyfish, the last thing. If I ever go to Bondi, I'm definitely all rashy. With a fucking jellyfish sting.

Tommy: You'll be fine in Bondi. I lived in Bondi, I didn't get stung, and I was there for a good 6 months swimming every day. It's, um, you just know. There's like, they stop if there's blue bottles and shit. They, they say stop.

Josh: Actually, New South Wales beaches, um, no babe, those are cliffs and weird little bays.

Tommy: Well, if you're on the harbour, that's rich. There is some lovely beaches. But dude, I want to live in Byron. Actually, is your mum got a spare room for Amy, Bogie and I?

George: She actually commented on the chat, said front room.

Mason: Front room.

Tommy: Front room? How big's front room, Georgie boy?

George: Front room's, yeah, it's about the size of this office, I reckon. No, not really. About the size of the, this bit.

Josh: The studio.

George: The table is the studio.

Tommy: Right.

Josh: That's all you need.

George: There you go.

Josh: There is something about being a minimalist. Like, I feel like Bree and I would go heading in the minimalist direction. When we went away and we sold everything and travelling really light and not buying shit. But to have a fucking stream, there's actually a lot of gear. Think about all the shit that we have now.

Tommy: I know. Yeah, well, we've spent nearly 10 grand on kitting out our places.

Josh: Sebbs, can you show what your room looks like? Have you got— can you bring up the other camera?

Mason: Yeah, yeah, I can bring up—

Josh: it's an absolute nightmare. I mean, you—

George: here we go.

Mason: Give me a second.

Tommy: What's he doing?

Mason: Take it off charge.

Tommy: He's gonna mobile phone.

Josh: Yeah, he's gonna, he's gonna bring up— this is exciting, everyone. We're about to see Seb's room for the first time. Okay, here we go.

George: All right.

Tommy: Oh geez.

Josh: Okay, uh, so you still got the— hang on, this is sad. Show your bed.

Mason: Okay, that's my bed.

Tommy: I got my own maid.

E: Cute.

Mason: How annoying is How annoying is that? Just looking at the, um, it's literally a, um, I've, I've actually, I got my blinds sorted though. Like, the, the blind guy, blind guy, the blind guy came around today and, um, can you put it back on you please? Sorry, I've got blinds for the, um, whole room.

Josh: And so right now I'm using a— and then there's picnic rug, is that what you're using?

Mason: Yeah, a picnic rug and then a towel up there, which is It's a slight nightmare, but it looks not like—

Josh: you look at your shot, you wouldn't know of the sort of abomination around it.

Tommy: How did you do that, to be honest, with the camera? It wasn't plugged in.

Mason: Now there's a little— there's an app, there's an NDI app that connects. It comes up in our little Ecamm software. He's on my family account.

Josh: He's on my family account. On there it actually says, I think, that you're my kid. Basically what Apple believes.

Mason: Well, that's all good.

Josh: I'm fine.

Tommy: Um, love it. George, mate, thank you again. We appreciate you doing these.

George: Thank you.

Tommy: These hump day replays.

Mason: Well done, mate.

George: Thank you. I appreciate it.

Mason: I love you, George.

Tommy: Full creative control. And so if one comes out where you defame anybody, we take no responsibility because we just let you go.

George: Oh yeah, definitely.

Tommy: And run more ads.

George: That's true. This is definitely my perspective of the show. This isn't the show.

Josh: If you want to actually— Maybe you should do a disclaimer at the start of each one.

George: Yeah. If people are actually only watching this and not listening to the show, then—

Mason: Or could you do like a— Could you do like a gov— You know, when the governments run the ads and it's like they have their little disclaimer really quickly at the end? Could you do a little one of that?

George: Great idea.

Mason: Just with, you know how you do the shot at the end? This has been George. Thank you, Australia. And then you could just do a little disclaimer really quickly.

George: Yeah, that's a good idea.

Josh: So, Rachel Love WhatsApp'd to me this morning. She's in Townsville. Beautiful in Townsville, but she did say, she just WhatsApp'd and said, "WA is like Townsville, you can't swim at the beaches because of the jellyfish and the crocodiles." It's a bit annoying.

Tommy: Yeah, when we're talking about rivers and it's fine to swim in rivers, We're strictly talking like Victoria. As you get further up or the other way, it's, yeah, dangerous.

Mason: A few crocs.

Josh: Good NDI banter coming from Whitey in the chat. I despise NDI. We use it for events all the time and always end up with broadcast storms and other random issues from it. Grace says, cannot wait until next week, George. Shannon says, Serv's putting his producer hat on. And Oliver says, I loved it, George. Thank you.

Mason: Uh, great.

Tommy: We love all of you.

Josh: We love you, thank you.

Mason: I love you, George. Love you, Gronks.

George: Love you.

Josh: If you haven't signed up to be a VIP Gronk, you can do it. All you have to do is go to thedailytalkshow.com/groenks. If you have already done that and you have WhatsApp, make sure you go in, uh, write back to me and add the phone number to your contacts and then you get notified. So when we do a live show, which is twice every weekday and then once on Saturday and once on Sunday, you'll get notified. And so you don't have to, you don't have to worry, it's all there.

Tommy: Does that mean that people are going to get a minimum of 12 messages a day? Sorry, sorry, a week?

Josh: No, uh, yeah, minimum. Yeah, no, I'm sending minimum 12.

Mason: They're definitely getting 12 a day at the moment.

Josh: Is there a replacement to our Insta Stories? I'll just sort of send it through through that.

Tommy: Can they unblock? Can we just get confirmation? If someone does block the message, can we— do you know? Will you know?

Josh: I can find out, I'm sure. Yeah, you know, if you sign up, that's what you're signing up for.

Mason: But I will say there's a video call function as well, which is cool.

Josh: Well, that's what I fucked up yesterday. I called, uh, Graham, Gronkh Graham. Oh no, accidentally pressed a button and it started calling him. He was on the toilet. Luckily, oh, he didn't answer and I hung up in time. But it's good fun. Let's, let's, uh, let's banter. I'm, I'm available from now until, uh, 9 PM if you want to jump on. Let's chat.

Mason: We'll sort it out for you, Russ. Don't worry about it.

Tommy: Yeah, Russ is texting me personally as well.

Josh: What's Russ saying?

Tommy: About— he's wanting to know the number of the, uh, that's attached to the WhatsApp account. But isn't he getting—

Josh: Russ, go through the VIP Gronks program.

Mason: He's— I think he is a VIP Gronk. He's already signed up.

Josh: He's gonna see if he's on the WhatsApp now before we go. Hang on, let's see.

Tommy: And also, just a bit of admin, bit of admin. I know Ruru last week had signed up to our mailing list, but which isn't the VIP Gronks list, and then she couldn't use that same email to sign into the VIP Gronks. So she missed it. I don't know.

Josh: Okay, so I've just WhatsApped with Russ. It seems like— has he just signed up? I'm just saying if he's just signed up to the— anyway, I've just WhatsApp him and he should be good to go. He was last seen at 4:51, 1 minute ago. Russ, it's not Teams, mate. He said it's not.

Tommy: All right, uh, George's mom, see you pretty soon. Amy and I will be up in Byron next week and, uh, Love you all.

Josh: Love you guys. Have a great night and see you on WhatsApp. Send your feet photo and tongues for my tongue pics. Yeah, tongue pics.

Mason: Tongue pics.
