Tommy: The Daily Talk Show.

Josh: It's The Daily Talk Show, episode 765.

Tommy: Happy Fat Friday, Gronks. Welcome to the studio, Bendigo Basil.

Josh: Hello.

Tommy: Thought that was nice. When producer Jess isn't here, we need another Bendigo, uh, you know, local to be joining us.

Unknown: Keep the numbers up.

Tommy: Yeah. Um, what's—

Josh: I just want to know a Bendigo fact.

Unknown: Bendigo. Oh, no. Gold Rush Town. Is that—

Mason: We've already had that one.

Tommy: We had that. What's a Bendigo fact?

Unknown: Oh, my God. Killing me.

Josh: No, you got something.

Unknown: They used to run the dragon. Oh, I've got one. The second biggest dragon outside of China. Really?

Josh: Yeah.

Unknown: That makes a good fact. They used to parade.

Josh: Wow.

Tommy: That's a great one.

George: That was great.

Tommy: Do they do dragon boat races as well in Bendigo?

Unknown: They do.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: At the local lake?

Unknown: Yeah. Lake Aruna.

Mason: Love it.

Josh: Yeah, mate, I'm glad.

Tommy: I'm happy with those facts. We've got something pretty exciting for Fat Fridays which Georgie Boy will get to soon, but before that, I'm fairly, I'm fairly low, fairly down.

Josh: Really? Has it got anything to do with GB wearing a polo under his hoodie?

Tommy: Right, here we go. What's wrong with that?

George: No, that is, that is a little bit— I understand the crew neck.

Tommy: But George is a guy who's got a moustache and it plays into his vibe.

Josh: It looks like Year 12s have gotten across the line hoodies.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: They have to wear the rest of the uniform.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: I just wanted to bring that up because I said that there was something I wanted to mention about your look. You tried to fix your beanie and I'm just projecting. This is all I can wear at the moment.

Tommy: Yeah, it's— I actually put my jacket over this because I didn't realise I have a handprint of peanut butter on my back from Bodhi.

George: Oh, no.

Josh: It's so annoying. Yeah, it's very annoying. Bree suggested that I get, because she was complaining about her tights feeling tight. Yeah. I'm like, it's better having tights that feel tight than jeans. And she suggested that I buy skins. And I've got to say, I draw the line at skins. She's like, you could wear skins with some shorts. Or no shorts, just skins. Yeah. Could you imagine?

Tommy: You look like a footy coach.

Josh: A girdle. She wants me to wear a girdle.

Tommy: I mean, we were talking about pulling your sort of pants up above your gut because it makes you feel better. What about like—

Josh: I don't know if it makes me feel better.

Tommy: It definitely like holding in makes you feel a moment better. It doesn't do anything really other than hold it in. But don't you think it's like some sort of comforting thing if it's a bit higher?

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: You know, I get what you mean.

Tommy: Putting a pillow over your gut when you're feeling a bit frumpy. Like, that shit does it for me.

Josh: I feel like— I've gotten to a point where I go home and Bree gets my like big t-shirt to put on, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're lazing around.

Tommy: Like, I even felt last night sitting in bed, like, sitting up, and I was like, fuck, I hold my stomach in. Like, I activate my abs that are hidden, have been for a few years. Um, and then I was like, I let it all go. And I was like, I found a moment I had my gut in my hand, like what I— what my gut is. I had it in there and I was just like, you piece of shit. And I was like, real negative. I was like, fuck. I'm in the middle of a meditation. This is counter to that. I need to let go of this.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Anyway, I couldn't let go of something this morning, mate. I woke up and I grabbed my phone in the morning, jumped onto my Instagram account, Tommy Jacket, and it was like logged out. I was like, oh, whatever. Went on with my business, just, you know, getting up, going, going into the office, going to work. Jumped onto the computer first thing. We had a meeting at like 8 AM, and I quickly had a looked pre— 20 minutes to the meeting, jumped onto my Facebook. Oh, there's been some, um, uh, activity that we think isn't you. Can you please confirm if this is an email about it? Not sure, don't think so, didn't see one, didn't see one, could have gone spam. It told me the IP address of where someone had tried to log in to my account, so I pasted that. Mace taught me, look up IP addresses, just type that into Google, whacked it in, Ho Chi Minh City. Yeah, I ain't in fucking Ho Chi Minh City, I'm in Melbourne. All right, so I was like, absolutely not me.

Josh: Do you reckon this is connected to the cyber attacks happening in Australia right now?

Tommy: I didn't know that the cyber attack's happening right now. Seb, can you look up where the cyber attacks are coming from?

George: Yeah, well, so that—

Tommy: I mean, don't tell me fucking Ho Chi Minh City.

George: They don't want to confirm anything, but apparently, uh, senior officials have mentioned that it's China.

Tommy: China. It's not Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnam? Ho Chi Minh City?

Josh: I was gonna say Taiwan.

Tommy: Taiwan. Where's Ho Chi Minh City? Don't look this way.

Josh: Thailand.

Tommy: I thought Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh.

Josh: I think you're right.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, Vietnam.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Actually, a lot of hackers coming out of Vietnam. The big issue I remember when working at Envato—

Tommy: oh good—

Josh: there was a huge amount of the fraud team working on because Very good coders, very good hackers in Vietnam.

Tommy: Well, I— It asked me to confirm my details where I needed to take a photo of my licence or some kind of evidence that it is me that's trying to log back into my account. I did that and it said, we will review your identification and then get back to you about logging in. I was like, sweet, I've done this before. Like, I've done something similar.

Josh: So, why have you done that before?

Tommy: The same reason, people trying to access my account.

Josh: And you had another issue, like Amy's had it.

George: Amy, yeah, I remember Amy had this once.

Tommy: Amy had it. It's the same. It's like, it's just they see someone trying to log in from somewhere and just sort of stops it. It is pretty good. So I thought, I tried to log back in. This is the thing. This is the, this is the response from Facebook. This is response from Facebook. Your account has been disabled. You can't use Facebook.

Josh: Not your Mark.

Tommy: You can't use Facebook because— do you want to get this cleaned? Sorry, let's get this clean.

Mason: Start again.

George: Hamtai.

Tommy: Uh, let's just get this clean, please. Your account has been disabled. You can't use Facebook because your account or activity on it didn't follow our community standards. We have already reviewed the decision and it can't be reversed. To learn more about the reasons why we disabled accounts, visit the community standards. My account's gone. I don't have Facebook anymore. My Instagram account has been completely removed.

Josh: You're done.

George: Really?

Tommy: I've been cancelled.

Mason: You've been deplatformed.

Tommy: I've been deplatformed. And so, I sent this to Jules Lund this morning, who has a business that relies on people having Instagram accounts.

Josh: What was your instant re— When it happened, where did your— Where did you go? Like, where did your head go?

Tommy: First thought, someone's hacked my account, posts— Posted some racist shit, and I've been taken off. And so I'm thinking, fuck, is that like— that's— it's almost the same, you know, when you get pulled over by a cop, you haven't done anything wrong, you're still scared. That, that's how I felt. And I was like, hang on, what account is this? I was trying to make sense of it all. And so obviously there's nothing to see because— but I haven't posted on my personal account. Like, my, my— this is my account I created in 2008, my personal friends account, and then it's connected to Instagram. But I haven't posted on Instagram in a couple of days. Nothing like nothing, nothing defamatory or racial. Like, I'm not doing that anyway.

Josh: Funny, like you saying it, you sound guilty, which I know you're not.

Tommy: No, but it's scary because you feel what it would like if you were. I guess if you're innocent of something but you're getting pointed the finger at and saying you've done it just because you go, I haven't done it, it's not me, it's not my fucking idea.

Josh: This actually reminds me of Bree with Uber. So she complained a lot with Uber Eats, things like, you know, cold chippies, massive delays.

Unknown: Nothing worse than cold chippies.

Josh: Yeah, exactly. Especially when, you know, when you're paying for— or, you know, you—

Tommy: You're both just ungrateful, to be honest.

Josh: Well, so the thing is that Bree complained so many times that they think that— they thought that she was being a fraudster. Yeah. And so they cancelled and they said, I'm going— we are reminding you of community guidelines.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: And, and Bree cracked it and she was like, I'm not going to accept. They basically wanted her to accept, like, you're going to be good. You're going to start being good going forward.

Tommy: Well, you jump onto where it said, cheque out our community guidelines and it's serious shit, which I don't fall into the category of doing any of the stuff that they say makes you eligible to be kicked off.

Josh: Scooter Derek was talking a bunch about this around, is it ska? The genre ska music or whatever. Yeah. And apparently there is like connections back in the day with skinhead type of culture. And so a bunch of people who were in the Scar community have— who like pages and things like that were getting deleted off Facebook. But I don't know what this— I think that there's, um, I just feel like it's someone has gone into your account. I don't know if they've posted it.

Tommy: I don't think they have because you can't see anything. Like, I can't see on my Instagram, like, to the point where you go to the Daily Talk Show and we were hyperlinked in the bio and said hosts Tommy tommyjacket, @tommyjacket, @joshjansen. Mine's now still there. Don't fucking delete it.

Josh: I was just thinking I probably should fix that.

Tommy: It's @tommyjacket without it being hyperlinked to anything because the account is completely gone. What if I had 2 million followers?

Josh: What if?

George: What if?

Josh: It's like your house burning down. What if I had stuff in there?

Tommy: I can't even— like, what would you do, Josh? You'd have a meltdown if this happened. No, I reckon it was The Daily Talk Show.

Josh: You thought it was The Daily Talk Show.

Tommy: I would straight away go into whose fault it was, and it would be George's. Or even when in doubt, blame George.

Josh: Well, yesterday, actually, Basil, when you DM'd us yesterday.

Mason: Yep.

Josh: Someone opened the DM that you sent, and I had a blow up about it because I said, who opened Basil's DM and didn't write back.

Tommy: And I, hand on heart, was not me. Was not me. Mason, look down the barrel of the camera.

George: Wasn't me.

Tommy: George, look down the barrel.

Mason: Was not me.

Tommy: Okay. And so at that point I said, who the fuck has our login details? Because we have given it to a few gronks that have been on the inner circle. But where are they now? We can't trust them.

Josh: 3D Deal just went back to Canada.

Tommy: I wasn't going to say names.

Josh: I don't think it was 3D Deal, but it could be. The thing was, it's It was scary, scary stuff.

Tommy: Mate, try having your account removed completely.

Josh: There's a difference between—

Tommy: I've got branded through my Instagram. MTV are relying on us.

Josh: Well, I think that yours is just a hacking case. The idea that someone is— It's almost like you go, you put a mug on your coffee table at home, you go out, you come back. And the coffee—

Tommy: There's lipstick on it.

Mason: No.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: And you don't know who the fuck's been there.

Josh: Well, I was going to say it's like the mug's gone.

Tommy: That's theft. That's real theft.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: But there's no evidence of the mug. The message, Basil's message is still there. But the mug's gone. If it was deleted.

Josh: The mug's in the dishwasher.

Tommy: That's a great person.

Josh: That's helped you out. But he's like, I didn't do it. It's very confusing.

Tommy: It definitely fuck wasn't me.

George: It would have been that case. If they wrote back to Basil's DM.

Josh: That would be absurd. Yeah, yeah, mate, come on in.

Unknown: But how are they linked? Because if someone's already in the back door of your, um, Instagram, couldn't they then, you know, they didn't—

Tommy: Oh yeah, yeah, no, they just have the password in our account, so they'd have the Daily Talk Show's username password, and then they'd just be looking through, and they might have opened it and seen yours. But for mine, I reckon they haven't even got in I reckon it's just an attempt. And then they've prompted to say, and I reckon like they said, it takes time for us to get back at this moment. And so Jules Lund said to me, the key is you have to find a way to appeal, which I tried a couple of times. And then they just said, this cannot be reversed. So is Facebook gonna go back on that? Like, this is abrupt, them saying we, you cannot reverse this. So it is, We have reviewed the decision and it can't be reversed. So have I lost my Instagram account and my Facebook page?

Josh: Yes.

Tommy: Should I just accept defeat?

Josh: And I—

George: what I was going to say was, hey, it's a great way to retire from social media.

Josh: Exactly.

Tommy: Or a great way to rebrand and come back as a photographer. I could be anyone. Yeah, could I be Tom Guru?

Josh: I did look up TJ Daily. I thought you could be Yeah. Did you look that up too?

Tommy: Yeah, we looked it up early days, but doesn't matter. Tully Smyth's got like T Smyth 67 or something.

George: There's something nice about just your vanity.

Tommy: Just like Tommy Jacket says the guy's got 62 followers. It doesn't mean anything at a follower level.

Josh: What would you love?

George: I'd love Mason Lauder.

Mason: Really? Really.

Josh: But you don't even have— you say yourself, mate, you don't even say Mason Lauder on your Instagram account. It just says Mason.

George: No, no, no.

Josh: You updated it?

George: Yeah, cheque it.

Josh: When you did the fruity bit?

George: Nah, it was actually before that. I probably did it a week and a half before I did that.

Tommy: Okay, so I'm so fucking— like, I'm slightly sad, but then I have the moment of like, what does it all mean?

Mason: Doesn't mean anything.

Tommy: Doesn't mean it. But this is the storey you tell yourself to get Instagram account. But then I've linked off to it so many places and the website and all the fucking bullshit that we have to I never thought of that. Go through.

Josh: I think it's a good— I mean, I did retire from social media if you've only started listening the last year.

Tommy: It's one of the many things he's committed to but hasn't stuck at.

George: Do you remember that though?

Josh: That was— there was— yeah, I remember GB.

Mason: I remember, of course.

Tommy: You know what I didn't remember is how long it actually was because it was a fair bit of time.

Josh: Yeah, 6 months, I think it was. Yes, it was Maybe July and— No, hang on. It was when I got back from overseas.

Mason: But also retire is a strong word because you just—

George: You're on a break.

Mason: Archive Josh Janson photos.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: He was the guy that quit coffee, but just took a week off.

Mason: And then you spent all your time on the Daily Talk Show instead.

Josh: Yeah, I did.

Tommy: Oh, that's right. So, I— Yeah, man.

Josh: And so, but I like the idea of retiring from social media again.

Tommy: But for me, I'm not doing it. No, but what if I come back and it's fully— You developed the strat. And I'll execute it. Okay, I'll be over here, I'll get new headshots, we'll just fully rebrand it.

Josh: It's a good opportunity.

George: Can you just, can you just go in on Tommy's face when he does that so we have a TDT?

Josh: Oh yeah, we have a little frame, full frame. Yeah, yeah, just now. Perfect.

Mason: Great, great.

Tommy: Or I come back as a TikTok.

Josh: For the podcast listeners, he, he grabbed his chin.

Tommy: TikTok boy.

Josh: Nah, no TikTok.

Tommy: TikTok boy, just fully get it hung out, go blonde. Why don't you just go, why don't you just go strictly TikTok now?

Mason: That can be your—

George: You don't have to be the TikTok guy.

Josh: No, it's too predictable. Is it? What about— What do you feel like?

Tommy: What about if I go blonde hair?

Josh: Blonde hair?

Tommy: If I go blonde hair, like I full go—

George: Would you do tips? Could you do tips?

Josh: No, he will go— Let's go full bleach. Will you bleach your hair? Will you do that?

Tommy: It's too expensive. And how many favours can we pull in?

Josh: Because it's true. Would you do your beard as well?

Unknown: Oh, now it's awkward.

Josh: That would look good.

Tommy: The beard's easy because it can just shave it off.

Josh: Do you know who looks fucking great at the moment?

George: Who?

Mason: Eminem.

Josh: Does he?

Tommy: He was running. He was a drug addict for a while, and the way he kicked it, he was running on a treadmill every day. Like, I feel like he's the dude that is a real sicko. Like, the pain is what he sort of drives. Like, he's feeling pain on the treadmill just to get out of the pain of the drug.

Josh: Do you reckon he still ate mum's spaghetti? Or is it no carbs?

Tommy: Bring him out. No carbs. I mean, he's an interesting character. Cat Eminem. He dyes his beard. Is that why you were thinking about it?

Josh: Yeah. No. Well, he dyes his beard for sure because he was all blonde or whatever on the top. But then, yeah, he's got very dark features now. It's all like a dark beard and stuff.

Mason: You reckon that's dyed?

Tommy: I reckon it's dyed, man. Yeah.

Mason: Oh, I reckon that's natural.

Tommy: And he was dyed blonde. Nah, nah, nah, nah. I reckon it's too dark. It's too dark. Way too dark. It's too perfect.

Unknown: I don't think he has any like little scraggly like whites and greys coming through.

Josh: Do you reckon he ran so much he got vomit on his sweater?

Mason: All right, mate, give us one more.

Tommy: Just one more.

Josh: Fuck, I don't know any more of his lyrics. Hang on.

Unknown: Oh, his palms are definitely sweaty.

Tommy: I can tell you, right? Listening to this, he is.

Josh: Yeah. No, but then here we go. No, but when he ran so long, his knees were weak.

Tommy: The problem is, Josh, you just didn't seize the moment.

Mason: Oh, that's good.

Josh: And that's when we stop it.

Tommy: George, you've organised Fat Friday. I mean, we've organised Fat Friday. We think Josh is going to really fucking love this. Yeah. Would you mind?

Mason: I get it.

George: I'm actually excited about it.

Tommy: Might take you a few minutes to get it set up.

Mason: I was thinking, would we do a before and after viewing?

Josh: Of me?

Mason: Or do you just want to see the finished product?

George: What are you thinking?

Josh: Are you making a pavlova?

Tommy: Yeah.

George: What do you reckon? Just finished product?

Mason: I'd be interested to see it.

Tommy: Just finished product, because then we can get straight into having a bite.

George: Yeah.

Josh: Did you see the guy who does all the security or something for like, I don't know what his official title was for Trump. He was, he was high up with Trump and he's, he got kicked out. We've got the microwave going.

Tommy: Yeah, he's firing it up.

George: The—

Josh: but he's written a book and in the book he talks about like all of these allegations and one of them, which I really enjoyed, I haven't had a chance to dig deep into it, but Trump was—

George: John Bolton.

Josh: John Bolton. Yeah. He was— What's his official title? Or what was it?

George: He was the National Security Advisor.

Tommy: Are they trying to block this book from coming out?

Josh: Yes.

George: Really?

Josh: And so, he—

George: It's crazy that they can try and do that.

Tommy: They're doing it with— Have you seen the thing that they're trying to block it with?

Josh: No.

Mason: What?

Tommy: An intervention order or like a—

Josh: Oh, really?

Tommy: Like an AVO.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: They're trying—

George: Trump just tweeted, Bolton's book, which is getting terrible reviews, is a compilation of lies and made-up stuff.

Tommy: All right. Tell us a lie and made up story, Josh.

Josh: My favourite one at the moment was apparently like he was with all the Kim Jong Un stuff. You know, I love all the North Korea. It's great. Yeah. He, he was obsessed for 2 months. He was trying to get Kim Jong Un a CD of Rocket Man by Elton John signed by Elton that he wanted to gift to Kim Jong Un because he was famous in Trump Called. Kim Jong-un, Rocket Man. Don't you think that's a funny thing?

Tommy: That's good.

Josh: Like, is that a funny, like, haha, this, or is that sort of a troll?

Tommy: It's a layered, a lot of effort to have a dig at somebody because would he get it?

Josh: I think so. Like, I think you play the song, it's like, oh, that's pretty, that's pretty funny.

Tommy: But you'd have to pay that, wouldn't you, as Kim Jong-un?

Unknown: Yeah.

Josh: I mean, I think that Trump, Trump has done a good job at making that John guy seem crazy. Can you read out his other tweets?

George: There's another one. Bolton's dumbest of all statements set us back very badly with North Korea. Even now, I asked him, what the hell were you thinking? He had no idea and just apologised. That was early on. I should have fired him then and there.

Josh: He also said John wanted to go to war, didn't he? God. And I was like, I feel like when you think about Trump, you think of he's the war guy. So, he also tried to get fucking the Chinese president to help him be re-elected.

Tommy: I mean, he got called a sick puppy and a wacko by Trump.

Josh: Yeah. And then now—

Tommy: Oh, you're sick puppy, you're a wacko.

George: He looks like this old, old, oldish bloke.

Josh: He doesn't look—

Tommy: Well, old, he's not fucking politician. He's a white old guy.

George: Yeah, I know, but he doesn't look like, you know, that's what they always say.

Tommy: But James Cormier. Who's the— was the head of the CIA. I mean, what is his name? What do you think he's going to be like? A warrior looking dude?

George: James Comey.

Tommy: Comey. Yeah. It's an obvious play, though, to leave the administration if you're working under Trump and do an exposé or a book, right?

Josh: He didn't do the impeachment thing. So, he didn't do the impeachment and then release the book. So, it's like a little bit like—

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: I mean, it's a very— I feel like if you're associated with Trump, there's probably some bad sides to him.

Tommy: I mean, they're all signing NDAs and stuff. So, uh, slightly lower level, Logan Paul has his house, Team Maverick, and he has like his creators living in there, his best mates. I mean, he looks like he's got it pretty dialled in, always creating content. One of the editors who shoots and edits for him I came up in my feed last night on YouTube. It's why I left Team Maverick. And so it's like you jump on and it dives in and he's talking about what we know, what happened, you know, what happened in the house. All good. He used it as a like— and even Logan said to him, are you doing a why I left Team Maverick video when you leave? He's like, fucking no. Well, because I think they all get huge upticks. You know, it's like instant publicity.

Josh: Well, it's a BuzzFeed thing. I think that's where it's like a bunch of people did the why I left BuzzFeed.

Tommy: You said, oh yeah, why I left Gary Vee, why I don't work for Gary Vee anymore, why, why I don't work for dictator Josh Jantzke. Anyone's looking for scoop, what could they do on us? What would you do? What would your video be, Sevz, if you were to— why I left the Daily Talk Show?

Josh: That will be— oh no, this is fucking disgusting. So GB, oh no, he's gotten to— can you explain what that is? Can you explain what it is?

Mason: Hang on.

Tommy: Get the packet, GB.

Mason: The packet.

Tommy: Oh, it smells like your childhood, Josh.

Mason: Oh, smell it.

Josh: Oh no, I'm serious. I can't actually have it. Someone's gonna shit their pants.

Unknown: Is it a sconcy?

Josh: I'm not even joking.

Tommy: These are box burgers that you cook in the microwave.

George: So who's having the chicken one?

Josh: I actually can't do it.

Tommy: Come on, chicken or beef? Chicken or beef?

Josh: I'll smell it again, but it'll make me gag. Should I do it or no?

Tommy: Go for it. His eyes are watering.

George: Oh, can you have beef?

Tommy: Have it, have a bite.

Josh: Happy she's on the couch.

Tommy: So this is why we thought Josh would love it, and by love it we mean hate it, which is what we love when he hates it.

Josh: Oh my God, my eyes are fucking watering. That is fucking disgusting. Can you just have a break?

Tommy: Can you pass it to me?

George: Oh, have, have—

Josh: Yeah, I see you microwave the whole thing.

Tommy: Can you get a close-up of that? Oh, all right.

Josh: So yeah, another time.

Tommy: These are like chicken fillet burger in a box. On the menu is the brand.

George: I've definitely—

Tommy: heat 2 minutes and eat. It was completely frozen.

Mason: How does it come from WA?

Tommy: It's come from WA, manufactured. Stop that, Josh.

George: You have to have some of the beef.

Tommy: Who's having a bite? Are you not gonna—

Josh: I thought it was gonna be something sweet. I was pumped. No way. I thought it was stew. I thought it was a fucking, um, mug, a mug cake. I thought it was a chocolate. I was fucking fired up.

George: That would have been so good.

Josh: You've given me soggy, a big soggy nugget in a— it's actually making me sick.

Tommy: Get it out.

Josh: Oh, that is—

Unknown: they should—

Tommy: who wants to have a bite?

Mason: Have one.

Tommy: Georgie, you want chicken or beef? Oh, just have a bite. Yeah, don't go chicken.

Josh: Chicken, you Definitely.

Tommy: Whatever you want, I'll have the other one.

Josh: It's disgusting in here, everyone.

Tommy: I'm gonna eat some. No, no, no, no, I'm gonna dance with the devil. I'm gonna have, um, the chicken.

George: Basil, are you gonna have some?

Unknown: Uh, birds are in a box.

George: Are they meaty?

Unknown: Are they actual meat or are they fake meat?

Tommy: No, it's real meat. It's legit. Hang on, here we go.

Unknown: Get in there, sunshine.

George: It's upside down.

Josh: You cooked it.

George: You fucked it.

Tommy: I did it the wrong way.

Mason: All right, so is it cooked all the way through?

Josh: I can't believe you're eating it like that. George, mate, you're the one who He was microwaving them.

Tommy: Here's the problem. You're not comparing it to a burger from Onett or Betty's Burgers.

George: Oh, here we go, chibis.

Tommy: In terms of flavor, it hits you with sweetness. It just tastes like something you got from the canteen as a kid, to be honest. This was what you grew up on, JJ. No, I, uh, sort of like canteen chicken, like getting— remember the old drumsticks? We're in the shape.

Josh: All right, here we go. Soggy microwaved.

Mason: It's in my jaw.

Josh: Oh no. Okay, he's taking a bite. He's chewing. Oh, it's sitting in his mouth. Not bad. It's sitting.

Mason: It's delicious.

Tommy: It's so good. Tell us about the bun. Tell us about the bun, George.

Mason: I'm actually surprised at how good and light and buttery the bun is. On the inside, it's like a cheeseburger.

George: Is there a bit of sauce in there?

Mason: Yeah, definitely. It's got like It does have a buttery bun, like legitimately melted cheese. The beef is cooked to perfection.

Tommy: Can I try it, Georgie?

Mason: It's beautiful.

Tommy: Josh, are you sure you don't want to have some? He's the guy that actually ate the hottest gummy bear in the world. Yeah, you got standards.

Josh: No, but I can't.

George: That can't be worse for you than a gummy bear.

Josh: No. So gummy bear is fine because it was a sweet, like anything sweet I could eat in.

George: How much were they, by the way?

Tommy: $3 each. The problem is people would be having this for dinner because they can't afford anything else. Like, you'd have mac and cheese.

George: Well, you'd afford a microwave as well.

Tommy: I mean, this doesn't smell too bad up close. It's the chicken one that smells bad.

Josh: And that's the one I smell. Okay.

Unknown: Josh, what's the reaction? Like, what is that in the family of that you don't like?

Josh: Well, so—

Unknown: Is it the cheese?

Josh: No, I think it's the—

Tommy: Not bad, Josh.

Josh: I don't know. It's just the meat. Like, what's the reaction? The reaction is, this is going to make me shit myself. Yeah, that's like, it's the thing that is like, whatever's in this, this is food poisoning. This is not good.

Tommy: It's not though, we're in Australia and it's a product sold at the biggest supermarket in Australia and it's frozen.

Josh: I couldn't eat Spam. I would have the same reaction to Spam.

Mason: Oh yeah.

Tommy: I've got a can.

George: Where's that can of Spam?

Tommy: Oh, we threw it out.

George: Okay.

Tommy: There's a much, I would have much greater reaction. I've never eaten Spam.

Josh: I just, my mate Naysan, Dr. Sugar.

Tommy: Loves Spam. Dr. Spam.

Mason: Dr. Spam. It's a Hawaiian thing.

Tommy: Is it?

Mason: I mean, like all Hawaiians like it, I'm pretty sure.

Josh: Big generalisation. George's Facebook's just been taken down.

Tommy: How to record a speech.

Mason: This just tastes like, yeah, like frozen chicken nuggets.

Tommy: It does.

Mason: Yeah.

George: Oh, yeah. A popular local dish in Hawaii is Spam musabi, where Spam is cooked and placed atop of rice and wrapped in a band of nori.

Tommy: See, I think they, they're taking something that doesn't just, you know, the equation doesn't equal edible out of a can when you see it. But when they maybe like put it together, like, I think there's somebody who could— if I reckon if I redress that into some good-looking burger, you would be over there just being, if we got the lettuce, like, not bad, not from Betty's Burgers. I wouldn't do that to Betty.

George: Yeah, true.

Mason: I'm shocked at how good that was. I mean, like in terms of—

Tommy: Have a bite, JJ. The beef one. The beef one's not the chicken one.

George: The thing is, you could eat that meat raw. You'd be fine.

Josh: Do you know what I've recently discovered? Now, this is a bad habit. This is a new ISO habit. Shortcross, our favourite pizza place. Great value. So inexpensive, especially if you pick up, like, very good deals.

George: How much?

Josh: Uh, $22 for how many? 2. 2 pizzas. 2 pizzas and a drink.

Unknown: They're monsters.

George: Is it a big pizza?

Josh: It's a decent size because the way you do it, they do a dinner for one, which their dinner for one is outrageous. It comes with a pizza, a side and a drink. But the thing is that the side can be a 3-cheese pizza. It's essentially another pizza. And so, it's the biggest hack going around. But no, the thing that I did the other night, and it's something that has become a thing where I can't eat pizza without it.

Tommy: What is it?

Josh: Ranch sauce.

Tommy: On the pizza?

Josh: No, a dipping. You basically have a tub of ranch and you dip it in.

Tommy: It's not a fucking chip. Pizza is not chips. You dip chips into ranch sauce.

Josh: It reminded me of when I do it.

Tommy: Animal.

Josh: I just—

Tommy: No, I appreciate it.

Josh: I imagine it, the voiceover as I do it is like, Josh Janson is playing a new role where he has to put on 20 kilos in one week. He's fucking dipping his pizza in ranch just to fucking—

Tommy: The reverse Christian Bale. Jesus.

Josh: There's people who have done that. What's— Who's the guy who's— We say he's Australian, but he's from New Zealand.

Mason: Rusty.

Josh: Rusty. Yeah, he played that Fox News.

George: Oh, yeah.

Josh: He got a bit chubby for that. That was great.

Tommy: I mean, he's on—

George: Russell Crowe.

Josh: Yes.

George: Yeah. But he literally just clicked. I didn't know who Rusty was.

Tommy: He's on the edge, though, anyway. Someone like Christian Bale, who did Batman, but then also did like— He's done heaps of films. He did The Fighter. Was it The Fighter?

George: Well, he was shredded for Batman.

Tommy: But then he became a— He was playing a junkie, right? He was playing a junkie and he was like skin and bone.

George: Chris Hemsworth did that for, Heart of the Sea, I think it was. He dropped heaps. You just, you could see his collarbones and everything.

Tommy: Like, the thing is, it's actually mentally tough. Like, if you were to just be eating everything and anything, you'd slip into a bit of depression. Like, um, the guy, he's an Aussie dude that lives in LA that did, um, From Fit to Fat and Back.

Josh: That's right. I hate those PTs that's like, I want to get into the mindset of my clients. So, they put— they eat whatever they want for 6 weeks, and then they like get a photo where they're like pushing their gut out, but you can still see like the abs creeping on the side. It's just like it looks like they're pregnant, essentially. And then it's like they then go take a dump and take a new photo.

Tommy: Yeah, I know what you mean. Paul PJ James was the guy who did that, a Melbourne dude. I remember it was quite like It was at a time, like, he got worldwide coverage. He was on like the Good Morning America.

Josh: It was post-Super Size Me, though, I think.

George: Was that?

Josh: Yeah. And so, that was the real—

Tommy: But he got sick doing the Super Size Me, didn't he?

Josh: Yeah. Yeah.

Tommy: It's not good.

Josh: I mean, where was that going to go? What was going to happen?

George: He wasn't going to get healthy.

Mason: But that was the idea of it.

Tommy: Yeah. To see—

Mason: To show how bad it was for you.

Josh: But also, he— Part of the rule was he anytime they asked if he wanted a supersize, he'd say yes. Yeah.

Tommy: The annoying thing about putting on fat is that your body remembers. The fat cells don't ever disappear.

Josh: Yeah, the memory of fat is really annoying.

Tommy: And muscle. The fat cell doesn't go. That's what liposuction does.

Josh: It's waiting there for the wrench.

Tommy: It's waiting there to fuck up. It's like, I'll be ready when you are. I won't fuck up.

Josh: Yeah, you will, you fucking idiot. And you're holding on to it during meditation. Mate, I love your shirt, by the way, Basil.

Mason: Yeah, we haven't talked about it. Party shirt Friday.

Josh: We don't need to talk about it, it's just standard. This is a standard for you.

Mason: We're all wearing Daily Talk Show.

Tommy: You're wearing the party top and off.

George: I mean, Crystal loves it, by the way. Oh, Crystal loves it.

Unknown: Yeah, shout out. Um, I think any other day I'd be wearing like just a grey t-shirt.

Josh: Crystal's in the chat, she said in the chat.

Tommy: Oh yes, I'm sure he gave that. She's not in the room, that's for sure. I appreciate that.

Josh: It's great. Yeah, it's a bit of brand value. Have you always been the shirt guy? Do you know Leon Shergren? Shergren? He's another shirt guy. Shirt guy. Yeah, but that's the only thing that's really in common.

Tommy: So, where are you going?

Josh: It doesn't surprise me that he doesn't know Leon.

Tommy: I'll take over, even though I don't have a hyperlink in our The Daily Talk Show Instagram bio.

Josh: What do you mean?

Tommy: I'm just taking over the conversation because you didn't have anywhere to go with it. You said, and so If you can help me, if you can help me.

Josh: I was doing a bitch. It was funny because obviously he doesn't know who Leon is. That was the joke.

Tommy: Yeah. Just so you know that, um, Crystal's in the chat.

Unknown: Thank you, sir.

Tommy: Thank you.

Unknown: Thank you. Thank you to both of you.

Mason: Thank you.

Tommy: No, seriously, if you can help me with the Facebook thing, reach out, please. If you work at Facebook, Mark, if you're listening, I think you need someone on your team. Who do we need?

Unknown: I think you need someone on the inside. I follow a bunch of people that I, uh, I don't follow. I've got like a bot that does a thing and I've tried a bunch of different ways.

Mason: Oh, you're gonna get it.

Josh: Charles, Charles, wait, so I want to hear more about this, but what's going on?

Unknown: So I think like back in the day I was, um, for a client, I was stuffing around with some third-party apps. Oh no, so bad. I didn't realize.

Josh: And so this is what happened with TJ. TJ did this same thing, but it was like 6 years ago. I reckon that's why your account— part of the reason I reckon you got 3 strikes.

Tommy: You know, go on.

Unknown: Yeah. And then so now if you look at my ratio, I follow like 5 times more people. I follow like 5,000 people, you know, and it's just you— it— for a while there, my Instagram was just trash because all my stories, it's all in Arabic and I can't, you know, it's crazy.

Tommy: It's just following anything.

Unknown: Yeah. And so it was like, like Medusa's head kind of things. I would just manually unfollow like, like people, and then the next day I would have like twice as many.

Josh: What's a Medusa's head?

Mason: What's that?

Tommy: Have you cut it off?

Unknown: Yeah, like the snakes. Like, you—

George: the snake head, you gotta cut it off and cut one off and it just— another one regrows.

Josh: That's great.

Unknown: Yeah.

Josh: Where was that?

George: It's like back in Greek mythology.

Josh: I love that.

Tommy: Back in the day. Yeah, close to his heart.

George: Uh, definitely.

Tommy: Yeah.

George: Now, Percy Jackson.

Unknown: I think— I didn't want to get pessimistic though and bring it up before, but I just think you need someone on the inside because if you just kind of like challenge it I've challenged that a bunch of times and been like, hey, this is, this is not me. I've like changed passwords, I've changed all of that stuff.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And it's fixed?

George: No.

Josh: So someone has done an API. So I reckon there's a connection with— because you can give permission to apps. Apps. Yeah. And so I reckon, yeah, you can write permission at a—

Unknown: yeah, I have. Yeah. So I, I emailed like like, uh, emailed— I DM'd a few of them on Instagram and was like, hey, like, um, how come I follow you? Did you buy followers? And you could tell because it was like they had 30,000 followers and, um, you know, they were following like 100 people and they had like 2 posts. So I'm like, clearly you've just bought 30K. Um, and I'm just— I'm one of those now. So I'm like, somehow I'm part of—

Josh: so you follow a bunch of narcissists. It's gross.

Unknown: Yep. Yeah. And that's why it's also just It's so not enjoyable. It's like the worst person in the world.

Josh: And you follow us.

Tommy: I wonder if it is the— But they were— So, what Josh is talking about, I did the same. It's like you can follow vloggers if they hashtag vlog, it will follow them automatically.

Mason: Yeah.

Tommy: And it sent me a thing saying you need to log out or you need to change your password to your account because we've noticed that you've had third-party connection. And if you change it now, you'll be okay. But if not, your account will be removed. And so, I did all that and I haven't entered any of those in 5, 6, no more, 7 years. Yeah. Fuck, man.

Josh: One of my favourite Osher Ginsberg storeys is that he— You love Osher.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: And on Twitter, he had a bunch of fake followers and he wanted to clean it all up. And so, he used an app, but the app malfunctioned and blocked every one of his followers. And so, all these people were like, hey, Osher, what's the deal? Why have you blocked me? Yeah. And so, we had to be like, hey everyone, like, if you, like, message me, like, try and find a way of messaging me and I'll unblock you.

Tommy: So annoying.

George: Very annoying.

Tommy: The only small win out of this is that I have a page, you, like a Facebook likes page that has 3,000 likes. Tommy Jacket, cheque it out. And it was connected to my Facebook account and I was like, oh no, I've lost that too. I don't have a login. I'm not the admin anymore. I logged into some random account that I created for social media management years ago, and I'd made myself the admin. So, and then I made you an admin.

Josh: I appreciate it.

Tommy: I made Amy an admin. Do you want to be an admin, Baz?

Mason: Why not?

Tommy: I'll make you all admins because I don't want to fucking lose this again. Yeah, well, I mean, I guess the only win—

George: I guess it's a good little thing to be like, okay, dial in your security now, you know, use those one— LastPass. Set up your two-factor authentication.

Mason: Yeah, you know.

Tommy: Well, yeah, I guessed, uh, producer Jess's passwords that she uses. I won't say it here.

Unknown: Really?

George: Did you? You guessed?

Tommy: I just did some social engineering. She never told me, but she's like, oh my God, have you seen what I've— like, the big media company— have you seen what my password is? Because I just— it's social engineering. You just work it out. Like, you could go, what was your dog as a kid, Josh?

Josh: Molly.

Tommy: And what year are you born? 1990. Molly1990.

George: That's—

Josh: he's done it.

Tommy: No, but there would be people at home going, fuck, that is my dog and my birth year, and that's my fucking password that I use for everything. Yeah, change that shit. I agree, mate. It's like LastPass, get a password manager, set it all up. Fuck, it's, it's so annoying.

George: Although don't forget your master password to your password manager. My mum did that. Absolute disaster.

Josh: That is annoying.

Tommy: Yeah, seriously.

Josh: I heard Eminem's password is, uh, mom's spaghetti.

Tommy: Hang on, can we just do dumbest celebrity passwords?

George: Well, Zuckerberg's been hacked.

Tommy: Oh, that's right.

Unknown: What was he really?

Tommy: Uh, what was it?

George: Came out his Twitter got hacked, I think.

Tommy: Uh, dumb passwords used in 2018.

Mason: Donald?

Unknown: No.

Tommy: 9to5Mac? It's quite funny.

George: Da da da.

Tommy: Da da da. What about the old one? QWERTY.io or QWERTY.ui?

Mason: Yep.

Tommy: QWERTY.

Mason: Speaking of pages that have got heaps of likes, I completely forgot about this. I've got one.

Josh: What?

Mason: That I made in school.

George: Really?

Mason: It's just like a dormant page.

Josh: What's on it? Can we use it?

Mason: Yeah. I was wondering if maybe we could transfer it over somehow. What is it for? We're just making Facebook names, Facebook pages at school. And I made one that was just simply "your" with a star next to it. So, it's like "you are," you know, like the correct spelling of "your." And it blew up. It had like, got like 80,000 likes. Really? But now I think it's gone down to like 60,000.

Josh: So what?

George: We'll take it.

Mason: How funny is that?

Tommy: Can we do— can you start running that? G'day guys, it's you are here. Yeah, with a star. I've had heaps of people been listening to this podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a hot day replay. Yeah, that's how much they offer to buy it for.

Mason: People DM me and say like, I'll buy it off you for, uh, like $1,000. And I'm just like, nah, $5,000.

Tommy: Chuck in a burger as well, one box, one.

Josh: Chuck in your house of 3 bucks. Facebook pages. Yeah, I remember there was—

Tommy: we should do it, we should do it.

George: Can we change it to Gronk Squad?

Josh: Yeah, we can't change—

Mason: you can't change it.

Tommy: Yes, you can.

Mason: I think you have— you can only change the name before 1,000 likes.

Josh: You don't even have Facebook or Instagram, you just lost it all.

Tommy: Sorry, Genius, but I've changed my fucking likes page name because I had it as Tommy Jacket Official.

Josh: I'm— so I remember there was huge issues where it's like, um, people were creating like anti-right— This is back in— This is going back 6 or 7 years. Anti-racist Facebook pages, getting all people to follow that, and then they change it to a racist slogan. And so, there's definitely things now, so you can't do that.

Tommy: Click Edit Page, Info on the left column, click your page's name, enter a new name and click Save Changes.

Josh: They're going to be bad followers, though.

Tommy: Yeah, but we're not trying to do it for anything good. You wouldn't say, here's my corner store now.

Mason: I'm pretty sure I have actually posted like a sketch on there before just to get to see what the vibe was like.

Josh: And what was not good?

Mason: Nah, a lot of unlikes.

Tommy: Can we do the reverse? You're trying to get it down to zero.

Mason: Oh, yeah, that's funny.

Tommy: Posting just you and Hannah. Hey guys, out for dinner.

Josh: Yeah. What content do you think people are wanting on that page?

George: Yeah.

Mason: Well, everyone's forgot. Everyone who likes that page has surely forgotten about it. Because I haven't posted anything for like 10 years.

Tommy: This is great. Hey guys, what content would you like to see from this page?

Mason: Gonna start it up again.

Josh: I love it. Yeah, passive income. Yeah, get t-shirts like merch and stuff. Definitely. Have you got the vanity URL?

Mason: I have no idea.

George: No, doesn't sound like— Oh, it might have defaulted to a backlink.

Josh: I feel like people would only want to buy it if they had the vanity URL.

Mason: 56,000 likes it's down to.

Josh: And here we go.

Tommy: Hemorrhaging.

Josh: Have you got facebook.com/your? If you do, that's ridiculous.

Mason: No, /your-128464.

Josh: Yuck. Yucky.

Mason: Yuck. On the 8th of August, 2015, I wrote, page is now for sale. Happy bidding.

Tommy: What did you get on there? What's it say?

Mason: $1 from Eric, 3 largies and a packet of Winnie Blues from Jack.

Josh: Were you strapped for cash? I mean, do it. That's a pretty sad post to do, isn't it?

Mason: And then I replied to Jack. I said, said, you do realise that your edit history is visible. Don't try to pass off a packet of Winnie Blues for a packed— Oh, he must have done a typo. He's since fixed it.

Tommy: Did you call him out for a typo?

Mason: Jack McDonald, if that is your real name, I only smoke Winfield Cuban cigars. Some good, some good comedy on that page if everyone wants to go and cheque it out. Yeah, great. Facebook.com/your-128464257229752.

Josh: Fuck, it rolls off the tongue.

Mason: That's—

Tommy: You got to own it.

Josh: You could have on the back of your ute, your big Facebook logo. Definitely, yeah. It's like pie.

Tommy: Oh, Basil, thanks for coming in, buddy.

Unknown: Thanks for having me.

Josh: Uh, any other Bendigo facts before we go?

Unknown: God, you're killing me.

Josh: Okay, that's a no. Nah. What's the main street called?

Unknown: High Street. High Street, it turns into, uh, what does it turn to?

Tommy: A freeway, highway, universal.

Unknown: It turns into McRae Street just for the for the club. So we used to go to Universal and McCrae. I'm sure Jess—

Josh: Best coffee? Best coffee in Bendigo?

Unknown: Um, Get Naked Espresso. Espresso.

Josh: Shit.

Unknown: Espresso. I said espresso. I didn't say espresso.

Mason: No, you're fine.

Josh: Naked Espresso.

Mason: Yep.

Josh: It's a daily talk show. We'll see you tomorrow. Tomorrow we have Timbo Reid from the Small Business Big Marketing podcast. See you tomorrow, guys. Have a good one.

Tommy: See you guys. I won't see you on Facebook.
