Josh Janssen: [00:00:00] It's the daily talk show episode 918. What
Tommy Jackett: [00:00:09] is happening? What's going on guys Howie this morning,
Josh Janssen: [00:00:13] uh, just, uh, was just reminded. I just looked over my passport is actually up for renewal. I wonder how many people have passports that are currently up for renewal? And the question is, do you bother. Even renewing at this point.
Tommy Jackett: [00:00:30] Well, 10, I mean, if there's anything I've known when I wanted to win. So do you remember when I, um, well, you didn't remember, you wouldn't remember, but I, I remember, you know, that I was the stripper and then I, to it around New Zealand, uh, in a stripping troupe, performing in front of hundreds of ladies every single night, inflating my ego.
Um, one Wu at a time. Woo. Anyway, anyway, anyway, uh, I, that, that was a moment in my life where. I got a F I got a phone call from the guy running that thing. And then two weeks I was in two weeks time I was gone. But he's the thing I said yes, without even thinking about what my passport would say, because I was like, it's New Zealand.
I didn't even think. And I hadn't even been overseas in. Years. And so how old were you? I was 19. I hadn't traveled overseas yet by myself. That was post after that. I went to, did some Europe by myself and anyway, so I'd been to Bali a few years, like years and years before that, but I had a passport. I don't even know why,
Josh Janssen: [00:01:39] how much of the prevalence passports?
Like how long do they last?
Tommy Jackett: [00:01:43] Well, I've got one little bodies' I think it's a 10 year, rarely.
Josh Janssen: [00:01:48] So sorry if you were. Uh, 11. When you were at, when you got your passport, you could actually be 19 and using that same passport. Is that really true?
Tommy Jackett: [00:02:03] I reckon is, okay. This is not, this is a Gronk guess I could imagine that like the early days.
So like Bodhi got one at tube. Yes. And I reckon he could probably have that through until like, whatever. Nine. Cause you're still a little kid at that point, but you're right. Once you get above 10 or 12.
Josh Janssen: [00:02:26] Yeah. You look a lot different at
Tommy Jackett: [00:02:27] 19. You've got facial hair. Yeah. You look like a thug. Well, you look like, you know,
Josh Janssen: [00:02:33] a Prince.
So what, what was left on your passport when you were 19 going to New Zealand?
Tommy Jackett: [00:02:38] Dude, it was done like it had three months or something. So it was just, this is my point. I never knew that I was going to receive a call.
Josh Janssen: [00:02:45] You may
Tommy Jackett: [00:02:46] get a call. Josh asked you to be on a stripping trip. You need to be ready. You don't want to have the panic of the admin of like last minute, getting express posted.
I need to be there to pick it up
Josh Janssen: [00:02:57] something I would say that's so annoying.
Tommy Jackett: [00:03:01] 400 bucks or 300 bucks, whatever it is. I mean, get it speedy delivered. Don't take too
Josh Janssen: [00:03:06] long to do the
Tommy Jackett: [00:03:08] well, the thing is you've got to go next week.
Josh Janssen: [00:03:10] The question is, do I, um, because of it on the 9th of November, so it's just expired in the, in the, in the last 10 days.
Yeah. I wonder if I have to pay more fees now that it's technically expired.
Tommy Jackett: [00:03:26] Oh, I don't reckon. I mean, they've probably just got the details and you need a new photo. I reckon it's where you have to pay the differences. Expedite like speed, speed, speed.
Josh Janssen: [00:03:38] From one trick Tony talked about on her show that there is a different cost.
If, if it has expired, but surely there's a grace period.
Tommy Jackett: [00:03:47] That seems
Josh Janssen: [00:03:49] a little bit more
Tommy Jackett: [00:03:52] why though. You'd think it's just like, Hmm. I mean, w I want to make the person who doesn't have a passport has never applied, never got one, never bothered to even. Get one, like you don't need it for state to state travel.
Josh Janssen: [00:04:07] So we'll just talk to, you were talking before the show about Matt. We're fucking exhausted. We don't have much, this is where radio would be. Great, because you almost might. Do you know what I want to hear from, I want to hear from the person who does it, it ain't 10 60. Do not deem not have a passport.
Tommy Jackett: [00:04:22] Are you just saying that radio people are lazy?
Cause no,
Josh Janssen: [00:04:24] no. I'm saying it's a good out. Isn't it? It's a good outro. It's like, man, I've got nothing. What are you.
Tommy Jackett: [00:04:30] Yeah. Oh, no. I tell you, you won't be going is America. I don't think anytime soon, have you seen the New Mexico has locked down for two weeks now? Like full lockdown again, which is just a state fail.
Fair few people there, but I know, I know, you know, following him on Instagram and actor,
Josh Janssen: [00:04:51] Fred living there, Frank
Tommy Jackett: [00:04:53] Grillo, he's filming me, filming a film. Did you say filming a film, he's doing a film. Do you say we're filming a film? It doesn't sound right to say filming a film
Josh Janssen: [00:05:03] of being mean of being filming.
Tommy Jackett: [00:05:06] He's, uh, he's in a film that is filming in New Mexico, and this guy is locked in his hotel room and he, and he's talking about, you know, when the, when the, when the, when the state locks down with the gyms are closed, do you stop training? No. You keep grinding. You turn your hotel room into a gym. He's just, he's the.
Okay. Frank Grillo he's um, you might know him out of like, uh, Um, captain America, he's the lead of kingdom, which is that show. Uh, we had Julian, how are you going out on screenplay Sunday that last week? And he had a t-shirt on that said Navy straight. And I said, fuck. Yeah, dude, that's a Navy straight t-shirt, which is, um, Frank Grillo's character.
From animal from sorry, kingdom. He owns a gym called Navy straight Navy street.
Josh Janssen: [00:06:00] It's on a it's in Venice. Isn't it? On Venice beach.
Tommy Jackett: [00:06:04] Yeah. So it's like set in Venice, but, um, Frank Grillo is 55. He's the most ripped, lean cool. 55 year old. You've seen it's crazy. He's so impressive. Like he's rig is how impressive.
Hmm. And he just grinds and trains a lot. So, but anyway, I saw that and I was like, Oh my fucking God, they're closing down again. LA 10:00 PM curfew. Again, I feel like we're, we're going into the summer. And it feels very open now. Like it feels like we're just, we're doing nothing but opening in the state of Victoria specially.
Cause we've had the whole year just doing sweet FA. And so that's the reality though, right? It's like they came out, they had their summer. And now we're going into our summer. Um, I just really hope it doesn't happen next year. Like, we'll be fine, but I just, I just, I hope it doesn't
Josh Janssen: [00:06:56] that South Australia has gone into a few days.
What, six days or something locked down.
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:01] Have they announced that have those.
Josh Janssen: [00:07:03] Yeah. What did you have an insider? Ah, did they tell everyone, did they, when did you find it?
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:08] I saw an article that said epidemiologist. Josh Janssen is advising a six week, six day lockdown to curb this spread. So at that point it had just been like, advise that.
That is what will help it six days. I don't know how that fucking get these numbers. Yeah. Six days. And so if it's, I mean, there's something about a little break,
Josh Janssen: [00:07:30] like six days, that'd be a little Holly,
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:33] Holly, I
Josh Janssen: [00:07:34] could do with a little cute little six days, or
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:37] there was people that went to a pizza shop between the 14th and the 16th of this month or something like that.
And they've been taught anyone who went to this pizza shop. Stay inside for 14 days, you literally
Josh Janssen: [00:07:49] have the quarantine
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:50] for 40 days. Went for pizza. It's got a two week holiday.
Josh Janssen: [00:07:53] It's the Domino's deal. Get one. Peter stay home 14 days.
Tommy Jackett: [00:07:58] Yeah. One for 14 for 14
Josh Janssen: [00:08:01] dad. Okay. Sounds really good. I wonder if the pizza places doing some sort of deal.
Where you actually delivery a delivery. Yeah. Yeah. Use the coupon code stuck inside $5 pizzas. That's not a bad
Tommy Jackett: [00:08:15] idea. 19% discount
Josh Janssen: [00:08:17] overnight. Uh, but
Tommy Jackett: [00:08:21] yeah, it's, I mean, I feel like we're on the, we're not even thinking about that here really feels
Josh Janssen: [00:08:26] great. Thinking about your holidays yet. Have you. Are you going to Sydney?
We lumped that in
Tommy Jackett: [00:08:32] driving up to Sydney, this is a sort of, it's become the, um, I mean, people sort of said, Oh my God, you drive it. It's like, yeah, it's much easier with a family in a car. Just having everything loaded, just hit the road for hour for five and a half hours to stay there and then drive, drive the three and a half, four hours the next day, which is nice.
Josh Janssen: [00:08:54] But it feels like a fancy recycle, a machine that you used last time.
Tommy Jackett: [00:08:58] Nine, I might take a few bottles up, you get my 10 cents per bottle
Josh Janssen: [00:09:03] to do that,
Tommy Jackett: [00:09:05] um,
Josh Janssen: [00:09:06] by in Victoria and that, you know, you see like if in South Australia, are you legally able to take the ones that you bought in Victoria and then claim your 10 cents 5 cents
Tommy Jackett: [00:09:18] big effort just to get either the option is you receive 10 cents or a.
10 cent towards a Woolworth's voucher. Like you can build it up. So it gives you a credit at a supermarket, which is great.
Josh Janssen: [00:09:34] Well, the pizza shop right down
Tommy Jackett: [00:09:35] here,
Josh Janssen: [00:09:36] races, patron Abbotsford on the side of their box. If you return the box, you get a dollar credit.
Tommy Jackett: [00:09:43] Interesting. Cause I did see a guy walking towards a pizza shop recently, the head about four or five boxes.
He was going the wrong way if it was, if he'd just received them. And I know that he, because I was, I was waiting for my pizza. I went back and he's then waiting for his. Either. He's probably sweetheart.
Josh Janssen: [00:10:00] Now he's just keeping the boxes and
Tommy Jackett: [00:10:04] he's once he's five till a crate on the pizza. I mean, I feel like that's an initiative by the pizza shop.
If anything, it's not like, because they have, they're not gonna use them again. They'll just dispose of them appropriately. I mean, let's, let's talk about pizza boxes for one moment. For, I get back to Sydney. What is the deal? Can you put them into. The bin or the recycle bin. I mean, you're not the guy that really
Josh Janssen: [00:10:29] aren't put in for a cycle then
Tommy Jackett: [00:10:31] you can, what about, I remember if it was oily, there was something about oily beans.
Josh Janssen: [00:10:41] Yeah,
Tommy Jackett: [00:10:42] I dunno. I mean, usually if they're. Papery like the hipster joints are usually kind of like, they feel very cardboardy. I go recycle. I think I like to think that 2020, where we have technology, I mean, you can, you can have a phone
Josh Janssen: [00:11:00] separating the shit and put another, like, I dunno. I dunno techies that I think it's literally people with a conveyor about going I'm sure that, um, when I was in school, they like show you the disgusting things they find in the recycling bin.
Really
Tommy Jackett: [00:11:16] just like grump moves, pudding food. Oh yeah. I mean, that's horrible. Anyway. Yeah. I've been thinking about the drive. It is kind of like. It's weird how you can convince yourself that something has become like a family ritual that like, like a 10 hour drive
Josh Janssen: [00:11:33] five, which is quite
Tommy Jackett: [00:11:34] toxic. Actually. I'm excited
Josh Janssen: [00:11:35] about it.
It's actually very fucking horrible. Yeah. I think it's fun. I remember like, as a kid, like going to places like Marinbular or you do the big drive. Have like the big thing is I'll just being nagging for the lollies and mum was like the lolly police and she was all like, Oh, you want like, okay, well, you know, just all those types of games, psychologists.
Yeah,
Tommy Jackett: [00:11:56] yeah. Yeah. I like, I like, there's something about getting up early, the car's packed and you hit the road. It's kind of quiet on the roads. Certainly music Sunday. Well, the, the, the challenge is you can't, you put music on, you get the kid fired up, then he wants his music. And so it's always about starting it's bill.
You start at the bottom. Nothing. You start nothing. And then you go radio. And then it's okay. We're only doing, talking, like it's just radio at the moment. He knows that. So you try and go talk back and then he just kind of looks out the window and we kind of enjoy it. This is how you get this is I reckon how all the people get into talkback radio.
Cause they're trying to fucking prevent the kid in the back saying, I want bloody, you know, this music.
Josh Janssen: [00:12:43] Can I give you a strategy that could work? What about if you were to say, Hey, Bodie, this is before. Before you even get in the car, you say, mate, we've just updated the car. It's awesome. You'll notice.
You'll notice. It feels a bit more comfortable, right? It feels nicer. But the one thing is some of the music stuff has changed. And so we're a bit limited with the music that we can play. So we can either just have silence the whole time. Or we can play daddy's music and that's the only thing. What
Tommy Jackett: [00:13:20] do, what do you mean?
This is what we do. I give him the options. Daddy's music or nothing. Which one? You always goes daddy's music, if that's okay.
Josh Janssen: [00:13:27] And so why don't you, but like, if you actually, so in the moment it's this heightened thing that it seems like you're just thinking on your feet. If you actually, what about if you said to Bodie today?
Bodie the car's going in for a service today. And what that one worry that they have is that the music might change. But the good thing is it's going to be a comfortable ride. It's going to be a more comfortable ride.
Tommy Jackett: [00:13:52] I mean, you're a big liar,
Josh Janssen: [00:13:56] but also there was a brace just asked me, do I want an iced or a hot.
Coffee. I'm thinking I want ice. To be honest, it's gonna be 33 degrees today in Melbourne. Um, the, now I remember as a kid, there were like on the side of the car, there were these little lamb holes. It was almost like, um, it was, it looks like buttons, but I think what it was, was little caps for where the screws were.
Tommy Jackett: [00:14:22] And
Josh Janssen: [00:14:23] the thing was that we created a story that if you press the button, it was like speed booster. As he pressed it and then you'd pretend like the car was going. I was just like going fast. Kids have a big imagination.
Tommy Jackett: [00:14:36] Yeah. I mean, he's, he's actually, because we haven't driven down the drive for a year.
We haven't driven out of the state in a year based on COVID. Um, we, we, the he's actually able to play more games now let's look for things. Let's do a what's that game. Um, I spy with my little eye something beginning with.
Josh Janssen: [00:14:58] I made the thing is COVID is such a hard thing to understand what it is. Could you say, look, we're restricted with the music, with everything that's happening with COVID.
Dan Andrews has said that we can only play out in John and queen.
Tommy Jackett: [00:15:12] There is, um, an issue with, Oh my God. Last time I drove up, I was so annoyed. I'd somehow flick my phone into, um, you know, uh, swipe down top. Right? You can, you can hit the, it looks like a little audience, like a signal button.
Josh Janssen: [00:15:27] Yes.
Tommy Jackett: [00:15:28] And the, and the signal turns on.
I don't know what what's it doing?
Josh Janssen: [00:15:32] What's it. The other thing, hang on, let me have a look.
Tommy Jackett: [00:15:34] It must be turning your mobile data.
Josh Janssen: [00:15:36] Yep.
Tommy Jackett: [00:15:36] Yeah. So it turns out I fucking turn this off somehow while driving just like fiddling with my phone and then I didn't touch it. And I turned it off. I wasn't receiving calls because we were out in reception, driving up the Hume, couldn't play music or podcast.
Josh Janssen: [00:15:54] Can you download stuff? I think go on to Spotify. Yeah. Download a bunch of play lists to your farm.
Tommy Jackett: [00:16:01] No issue. It's a great idea. It is a great idea. We will do the
Josh Janssen: [00:16:04] music. What about like a playlist where it actually, do you think that Bodhi would be able to handle switching between. Your music and his music or your music.
Okay.
Tommy Jackett: [00:16:16] So mommy's, mommy's, daddy's, bodies'
Josh Janssen: [00:16:21] what would be the differences. So like what's, Amy's music's music like,
Tommy Jackett: [00:16:26] ah, John Mayer into, um,
Josh Janssen: [00:16:31] and then to you,
Tommy Jackett: [00:16:31] you know, and then. And maybe to say if Brody gets the middle Spider-Man and then back to me, maybe Drake.
Josh Janssen: [00:16:39] Yeah. And so it's quite a click Johnson, Bob, the builder, Tanya.
Tommy Jackett: [00:16:45] Yeah, exactly. But then Bodhi does like Kanye. And I'll have no problem with him listening to Kanye. West's light excited enough. It's his lightest Jesus is King. Cause there's no swearing in it and he gets right around it. It's great. It's great.
Josh Janssen: [00:17:00] So what, like, so maybe they're referred to playlist, is there a playlist organizing afternoon that you could have where it's like, okay, we're going to sit down as a family.
Maybe Amy can play all of her tracks and Bodhi has to pick his favorite from her band. Yeah. And so you end
Tommy Jackett: [00:17:16] up with this
Josh Janssen: [00:17:18] ultimate sort of playlist.
Tommy Jackett: [00:17:21] That is a good idea. The blend. And so we, it's not, you just it's on and it will rotate between all of our vibes. I do like that silence is a bit
Josh Janssen: [00:17:31] like the idea of just like, okay, For the first half an hour.
There's just silence.
Tommy Jackett: [00:17:38] I like it. There's something about waking up in the morning. I've got no interest in blaring music on a road trip. First thing in the morning, unless it's heading off to a Buck's party.
Josh Janssen: [00:17:49] I think I w I do like playing tunes loud. Like I would get fired up. Yeah.
Tommy Jackett: [00:17:55] And so just, it is about easing in it's what's the energy.
What energy does that bring? It brings a liker fired up energy, which you don't with a child. It's always the fight up energy is inevitable. They will be fired up. They are like a fucking pulled back. Um, elastic band ready to snap any moment.
Josh Janssen: [00:18:19] And so maybe something, uh, so classical, I guess is, Oh, what about like, um, Ludovico and Audi's great.
The panist
Tommy Jackett: [00:18:30] um, yeah, I mean, you've got yours. Music is, this is the thing. Music is very personal.
Josh Janssen: [00:18:35] So do you all agree on what sort of talk you like to listen to.
Tommy Jackett: [00:18:40] Oh, w as in talk back or
Josh Janssen: [00:18:42] like, or class or jargon. Yeah.
Tommy Jackett: [00:18:47] Sometimes. I mean, yeah. Amy likes, um, DEC shepherd.
Josh Janssen: [00:18:52] Oh yeah. He was on my
Tommy Jackett: [00:18:54] podcast just recently.
Josh Janssen: [00:18:56] Yeah.
Tommy Jackett: [00:18:57] So it'll be nice to sort of have a blend of that. And then buddy, just sort of tunes out at that point. The thing is you just don't like, um, I'm his boss had screens in the back of the, of the actual seats and he's told the kids they're broken and I get it. It's a good idea because. It's crack. Once you realize the screen works in the back, you ain't going back.
Josh Janssen: [00:19:19] Well, then many lies that you were told as a kid. One that I remember when I was doing a VCA film when I was, um, so I didn't like a teen whole like school holiday program type of thing. And, uh, I would have been 15 and I said, I need dry ice. And dad said, you need a license. To have dry eyes. And so I remember having to organize a smoke machine, um, sub plan.
Yeah. But then also years. Yeah. Many years. Lighter telling people are now we can't pack. It would be so good to be able to get dry as can we get someone licensed to come in with it. And it's just all bullshit. Jensen just didn't want to go to Bach or whatever it was called them. And pick up the dry eyes.
So annoying.
Tommy Jackett: [00:20:15] LA,
Josh Janssen: [00:20:16] but as
Tommy Jackett: [00:20:17] you said, I mean, the thing is you think innocent lies. Aren't going to be the ones that stick it's the big, big ticket lies that you think are going to have the impact, but you've like that second family.
Josh Janssen: [00:20:31] Yeah.
Tommy Jackett: [00:20:31] Yeah. Which it turned out to be true. It's
Josh Janssen: [00:20:33] crazy. What's the, um, yeah know what were some of the lies when you were a kid that you remember?
Tommy Jackett: [00:20:39] I cannot, I cannot remember being lied to. I mean, I can't, I, I, I mean, I got pretty, I got a pretty free reign.
Josh Janssen: [00:20:49] My parents would always bullshit on the time. So then you said when Dan Andrews was doing all of the lockdown stuff, I was thinking it through the. The sort of perspective of how my parents operated, which is like, they'll say the date, but they're all day, they're always putting buffer into everything.
Right. So if we had to, if we were to leave the house at two 30, they told me that we'll leaving the house at two, because then they knew that I would be ready for two 30. Um, and there's so, so many examples of that. Like even when it comes to like at the moment, The like, I'm just so impatient, this bike that I've ordered it's, um, you know, it could take up to 10 days
Tommy Jackett: [00:21:34] up to up to 10 days, set the expectation
Josh Janssen: [00:21:37] then.
So 10 days, and then they say, because I've paid for the install, they say, once it's arrived at the place that does the install, they'll be in contact. And you'll have to book in a time for them to come and set the bike up, but they said that can take anywhere between seven and 10 days. So what you're talking about here is a potential 20 day.
Wait. For my bond. Yeah. And I'm just, I struggle did,
Tommy Jackett: [00:22:06] I mean, you you've paid, so you've,
Josh Janssen: [00:22:08] you've been inside this beforehand.
Tommy Jackett: [00:22:11] So that's what I was going to ask. When did you work out the 10 day delivery?
Josh Janssen: [00:22:15] When I got an email, once I'd paid for it all and they're like, okay, here's the email. And so,
Tommy Jackett: [00:22:19] but I have a good product for people to buy it without knowing that stuff.
Josh Janssen: [00:22:23] Yeah. Well, the thing is it was in stock. So if you go to any other site, they're out of stock. So there was a part of me where it's like Arkin, there's a 50% chance I'm going to buy this thing. And they're going to say, we don't actually have stock.
Tommy Jackett: [00:22:38] Yeah. Sorry
Josh Janssen: [00:22:39] mate. I'm just glad I didn't wait until sort of like the, um, black Friday cyber Monday stuff.
Tommy Jackett: [00:22:46] Oh, it's going to be gone. That's next, next week. Right.
Josh Janssen: [00:22:49] And a lot of things doing, I think that they'd already put in their discount. Y well, and truly before the actual sale, like if you go onto websites, you're already seeing these sales happening.
Tommy Jackett: [00:23:04] I went and tried to get a pair of shoes yesterday, and
Josh Janssen: [00:23:08] you're very happy with yourself
Tommy Jackett: [00:23:10] there.
Well, I ended up leaving cause I was like, this is bullshit. The majority of shoe shops don't have size 12 or 13. And so it got to a point where I'm
Josh Janssen: [00:23:22] like their reasoning.
Tommy Jackett: [00:23:24] Just shelled out or people have bought them back. They've got some, always got smaller sizes. Maybe they stock more nines, tens eights, like small fate.
Josh Janssen: [00:23:35] Do you think there's more bigger feed in the world than there are smaller though? Now, what do you think the sweet spot is smaller?
Tommy Jackett: [00:23:41] I reckon it's like nine or 10. 10, for sure. For sure. You know this? Yeah, definitely around the 10 Mark would be the sweet spot. .
Josh Janssen: [00:23:53] Yeah,
Tommy Jackett: [00:23:53] added S Nike. Um, it's w I knew there is some shoes that I could have found the size for, but the ones that you want never have them.
And so it got to a point where I'm like, The question I just said is then what shoe do you have in 12? Because it's, it's that they actually they're so focused on just like, so what else, what else it's like now you actually needed it, then work and bring some shoes to me that at 12, I didn't, because
Josh Janssen: [00:24:18] it's all like the, I could imagine that would have been like the medical, it would have been once like six, a link, you know, like it's like, Oh yeah, You can't tell it real.
It's
Tommy Jackett: [00:24:27] got real foot problems yet. I mean, it's big feet problems. I mean, that's not even that big imagine having fifteens.
Josh Janssen: [00:24:34] Yeah. This is even, I was saying to Pete shepherd is pumped about my bike. I was asking Brie what her height was. I have no idea. Um, what her height is, but I think, um, I think the bike, yes.
I think she said like five something. Yeah. But it was, the bike is rated for five, one to six, three I'm 62. So it's like, perfect. But I was saying to Pete Sheppard, I'm like, mate, you couldn't get one, if you wanted one because you don't want it. Yeah. You don't want to be modding that the thing you could tell that that would be a shit experience.
But, um, but yeah,
Tommy Jackett: [00:25:14] not how I'm going to this happened last year. I know this is the thing I actually just, I really don't enjoy shoe shopping
Josh Janssen: [00:25:21] right now. Bottom line. Do you know your size?
Tommy Jackett: [00:25:25] Not because the shoes are all changing. They're narrow, you know, so if you've got a fat foot, I mean, you've, you've, uh, you've deleted any other option.
You just go one shoe.
Josh Janssen: [00:25:35] By multiples.
Tommy Jackett: [00:25:36] Yeah. So I get that, but I want style
Josh Janssen: [00:25:40] w which is, which is hard because they do go, like I've got a fashion. I have to get the, um, the E like sometimes they have like a different sort of, um, uh, Lesser at the end, which signifies that you're going to fat foot.
Tommy Jackett: [00:25:54] Well, so some, some of the added S is like, you can go one style different, but they look very similar, completely different fit.
And so anyway, I'll, um, might see, might see if I can get black, black Saturday, like black Friday. Have you said that it was the Bush fires in Melbourne? Yeah. That's no good.
Josh Janssen: [00:26:15] The sale, not the sale. The, uh, have you ever been a shoe guy? Have you ever had a lot of shoes?
Tommy Jackett: [00:26:23] Yeah, man. I've had heaps of shoes in the past.
I spent so much money on shoes when I was a young family. Yeah. Now I'm an old one, but it was just it at that time, you know? Nike's converse so many, so many pairs of shoes. I reckon I've had maybe like, I mean, for me, it was a lot for me, like seven, eight pairs. At one point you can only get
Josh Janssen: [00:26:44] one pair at a time.
That's why I'm like with it, everything like I'd prefer less high quality, like, sorry, less, but at a high quality than lots. Uh, but the funny thing is when people got lots, they still go high quality. They're just spending a lot of money. I feel like, um, even bags and stuff, uh, here, people were having a lot of bags
Tommy Jackett: [00:27:08] if I had, if I had bucket loads of cash.
Josh Janssen: [00:27:13] No. Well, shoot. So interesting. Cause I was wondering this it's like if you had heaps of cash, where would you allocate it? What, what, what would be a few things that you would do where you would just spend more money than the average person? If you had AP cash.
Tommy Jackett: [00:27:28] Sure. Yeah. I'd have heaps of shoes. Okay.
Josh Janssen: [00:27:30] You would.
Tommy Jackett: [00:27:31] Yeah, because I I've just trained myself, not to think like that, but I can easily get to that thinking like that, like just having a wardrobe that just has shoes. And so I can just put on every day different pair. I would,
Josh Janssen: [00:27:49] I think I would, if, if, if it was, uh, if I had a lot of options, But there's something about being a shoe guy.
If you have like a big wide foot, it's very annoying because like, you're the shoe guy, but you've only got the sort of medical shoes, like you're the shoe guy in the, the wide foot. It's not going to look, as you said, smaller shoes look like they just look. Just like, Oh my God, where out, like, it looks like a, um, at a bowling alley, you know, everyone puts their shoes whenever I want that doesn't look good.
Tommy Jackett: [00:28:25] I'd buy a pair of bowling shoes. If I had the money, if I had the pace
Josh Janssen: [00:28:29] yeah. Basketball shoes, I would like, so when I was a kid, yeah. I remember my, um, Mum's saying, cause that's been fucking a hundred bucks or whatever on shit. Like that seemed like such a lot
Tommy Jackett: [00:28:39] of like a lot of money back then
Josh Janssen: [00:28:41] back then, they're it 110 bucks or whatever on cheese.
Yeah. I just remember my mum sitting us down and saying, if you tell anyone, anyone how much his shoes cost, you lose them. You don't get them anymore. And because there were kids that was kids in schools like you have, because it is a big purchase. You get these issues you rocking around going. Yeah, look at my shoes are $110.
Um, but no, so I appreciate that. I think that was a good quality. All the lying that they did, one of the redeeming factors was, uh, not being a winger when it comes to that. And you didn't,
Tommy Jackett: [00:29:16] you stuck to the Notel. Yeah,
Josh Janssen: [00:29:18] because I think that they connected. It's like. You are so lucky that you have these they're like, there'd be heaps of kids that would love to have these that they can't.
And so you don't be flashy about them. You don't tell people about them. You just wear them.
Tommy Jackett: [00:29:33] I mean, it's not because one could think that because they're going to get stolen, you know, automating
in prison. And he was telling me I was looking at his shoes and he's like, yeah, they've banned. Um, Nike and added last year in the jail because
Josh Janssen: [00:29:51] it's literally school. Isn't it. The jail
Tommy Jackett: [00:29:53] we get 100
Josh Janssen: [00:29:55] fights over Tazo.
Tommy Jackett: [00:29:58] Literally who fucking stole my marbles, killed my fucking
Josh Janssen: [00:30:02] God cheese
boxes.

Josh Janssen: [00:30:09] fat bomb. Crap. All right. Well, uh, no reviews from yesterday, you know, I said I'll read something out non,
