TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yeah, it's the daily talk show episode 893 it's week in bands. So what's happening guys? What's going on? Yes, Lucas IE whip and grace are in the building You can be what do you want to do?

What's your name? Yeah, what could you nickname be? Okay? GP it took closer gd Yeah, true.

Very true. What's your middle one grace? Marguerite. Marguerite.

So you're right? Marguerite Marguerite mum's name. Yeah, I like it Yeah, and so we're it's French for Margaret. Yeah, French for Margaret I've had French I've had French ancestry today, and I'm feeling real French right now Paris.

I feel like I'm in Paris What does IE mean by the way? I don't know what the actual lesson. Do you know what the difference between IE and AD is? He assumed his example And it's about with EG Example example and then there's etc as well, but everyone's on edge because we we nearly had a blow up a lot of technical issues today GB had some issues with his microphone Jess accidentally jumped in halfway through a show that we were doing and so we're all good now But Jess have you ever had any blowups at work?

Have you ever absolutely cracked it at someone? No, because I would never yell at someone but I've definitely cracked it at someone. I didn't yell. I didn't yell.

I didn't I didn't say it in housework out and so yeah, what did you what I'm not gonna lie just then Well, just then you were just on edge. Oh, this is this communication. This is this is hard work This is anything. No, the opposite of banter is is what this is I knew Grace's mum's name is Margaret and so soon.

I'm like, what the fuck is French? Oh, okay What's my last comment? So we're gonna get from Grace's mum. This is a great way of building rapport.

So we're we're all good Well, to be honest, I'm fine guys. I have no idea about really what's going on There is a sensitivity though JJ around techie shoes and and you and so if there's if there's ever blow up You can sniff out a techie show within the first, you know, you can smell the soldering iron burning I just I just feel hot and so Jess. What was it? Was there a specific moment?

Was it like can you describe when you've you've gotten close to a blowup? I can't even remember what she did. She was just painful sometimes. I think I don't think it was probably just like a combination of multiple things I can tell you what time that I got yelled at.

Oh, yeah, that'd be great When I was in events I I was doing an event for a hotel chain and we went through a wedding expo and there was a bowl and everyone could kind of just drop their business cards in And whatever it was. I can note that had their name number that kind of thing. So couples. Obviously We'll take that offline.

Yeah But I had this excel spreadsheet of all these people that were hopefully going to win a tonight's day at a hotel For the wedding whether it was a honeymoon or whatever And I just started like falling email saying thanks for coming. Thanks for dropping your name in You haven't won and then I got to the person that had been selected as the winner who was about halfway through said our congratulations You wanted tonight's day. This is super exciting. Let us know what that's you want to book in Um, but then I kept forwarding that email to the rest of the people No This is uh worse for hospitality than covid.

How many how many free nights did you give it up? I think in the end it was like 12 a bit. The thing is I've noticed halfway through I know um and I had to email all of them back and say Yeah, sorry. That was missing Anyway, that was my bloody email.

We got you It's so I'm prank called that doesn't need explaining really Go on people said um, but jess do you actually have to give out like a lot of businesses end up actually valuing or what uh Giving out the whatever they fucked up honoring Was one I was telling you about JJ the other day around the corner. I had PTSD walking past it. Oh my gosh What about you grace? Have you ever um either yelled at someone or being yelled at whilst working?

No, I've never been yelled at someone I've never yelled at anyone if I've had to ever talk to someone. It's always been quite nice. Like oh so, you know Just maybe do this a bit differently any disasters anything like that. So you worked you worked at a gym What's sort of the any nightmares?

Um if people got charged twice sometimes I'd be an issue I've been yelling out by like customers not by a boss. Um the first one of the first times I was working I didn't know the backstory but someone called up and I just so happened to pick up the phone And obviously they'd be having a hard time with something and they decided yelling at me and then I was just crying at the front desk I'm so sorry Then I got off the phone and I'm just blowing my eyes out. So what did they that like if you hear someone cry on the other end of a I was trying to keep you know keep it in and just had a tears coming down my face and my boss was like looking at me quiet like what's going on like Someone died, but like no, and then I got off the phone. I was like someone yelled at me I think you just get used to it We yell at you weekly and it was just a part of the job That's the game is just stressful, but it is I went through a um the guy who was in in in charge of the personal trainers Kick a kick a guy up the arse as he walked out the gym It was a bodybuilding gym a lot of testosterone and a lot of um, you know Injectable testosterone that probably got us to that point, but road range, but you've been a roid rage, but it was interesting I mean it takes a certain type to yell it Someone else, you know, so it's staff sitting.

It's probably less happens less these days like a people are on edge Yeah, true I've my bosses kicked people out of the gym and it's been quite like a yelling match in the front for ya And that was quite stressful as well because you kind of just have to pretend that it's not happening Well, they're kind of yelling at each other and yeah, it's it's who's got more testosterone Really definitely so so Melbourne Cup weekend is coming up pretty soon We get the Tuesday off Does Perth have like a user for one Melbourne Cup on the radar for Perth And if not, what is the perfect Perth the Perth equivalent the Perth equivalent of Melbourne Cup Um, yeah, it's usually on the radar, but I feel like recently with the kind of saying up to the cup has Is it a slogan saying not to the cup yeah people who like boycott the Melbourne Cup saying like saying up to the cup Um, so I'm not like not saying up like saying up saying up saying up saying up saying up I get the rise of the horses. Yeah. Yeah, because of the Absolutely. Oh what nothing to do with it.

See that was bad guys Um, so yeah, it's it's on people's radar like I feel like if like I mean because it's just everywhere like all over the news and stuff Um, and so usually like ask Scott, which is like our race course. They have Racers and then else they air their Melbourne Cup there. Um, but you don't have like a public holiday or anything for it. Um But yeah, it's not really a big thing.

Like I remember when I was little, um, like that was the one day that mum would be like Also like we'll put putting like $2 on horse number three, which was like obviously I was born on the third Um, you're like lucky numbers kind of thing, but that was it. It wasn't really like a big deal And so I've never really been that into it never gone to the races. It was a big thing like um, I feel as a growing up Yeah, you'd get all like everyone would put a couple of bucks on or you have what is it the sweet steaks? I feel like yeah, like I could imagine Jesse your family getting into it in a big way Really?

Yeah, I just imagine like the um, you know, a summit was it summer in November uh, summer's day in like a hot day in bendigo with that sort of, you know Music going and the esky out and and a whiteboard and people getting pissed off about what horse they got Is that a fair assumption? Okay. No, unfortunately we because bendigo has its own car. So they don't recognize Melbourne Cup They recognize that it's bendigo.

Oh, what's the cut before the Melbourne Cup? There was actually all that. There's multiple like a ballerat and then everyone has their own cups. Okay.

And horse racing events, I suppose. But no, I mean dad's work always does a sweep and I always I still get one every year They'll just pull it out of a hat and sign it to me. Um, have a one. Have a one.

Have a one. Have a one. Have a Yeah, I mean footy tipping big media company. Maybe we need to do footy tipping in 2021 I've never actually tipped him up in the game.

Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, rich man.

We went we went watch one. Yeah, I know lots kicking in danger I have today. Josh watch a game. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. We were when grace first moved to Melbourne Uh before lockdowns. That's crazy to think that that was the case.

But yeah, we um Uh, service and grace came over and we ended up we actually got KO just so we could watch the game. It was good. I enjoyed it Well, I've seen next year it would be a bit more normal. Like it's not it's not going to just stop You know for games in and then but there's always there's always the person that doesn't watch footy that ends up So getting pretty far down the line.

Amy's that person at her work. She's coming like third and footy tipping Oh, wow. She gave a shit about she grew up with rugby, you know, I've been sitting here So jess, what do you think do you think we should get involved with some sort of footy tipping in the in the team? I think it'd be fun bit of uh, colleague rivalry would be Uh, maybe?

Yeah. Yeah, I mean we should be strategic about it though I can imagine you would be that person that Tommy should have mentioned your life freeman or along I think I would probably um No, I would definitely look into it a little bit the uh, what's the deal with fantasy about these odds? Yeah, definitely fantasy What's the deal? I can actually imagine you grace getting into fantasy football.

No, I um My ex-boyfriend was quite into fantasy Like a professional They're just like sit around talking about it all weekend. Oh really? I heard I was like Just famous. Oh, really?

Yeah, it's just this is a lot involved. It's always like I've got the most points And I'll go to trade this person and I don't know if you have the time for that Yeah, it seems like it's involved a lot's involved in In actually having a good team and doing well I mean if you're just doing it for a bit of fun and huh, whatever And so the idea is that you get all different players from different teams Yeah, and then you create your own team and um Every week when there's the games on you're saying the stats is like, um, I think it's a day to fail dream team or something like that at the end And they're all the points and then you get the points If how many social play gets 100 points that goes to your total score So it's like the top score things like that and then you can like yeah So like Tommy's team will play your team and then things like that Okay, and it's actually taking data from the real people that are playing over the weekend So it is cool. It is like the link through the the real so if you're watching the game, but you're also running this dream team on the side It makes sense. I've got no interest in doing it personally, but I see how you know, you can get really involved in it Yeah, and then there's all like the dream team draft and things like that and it's yeah, it's just a whole lot So maybe we can get into it from a baseball perspective That could be a way of us learning about it But what's stopping you from just picking the Michael Jordan equivalent of every like just having a dream team or is that the point?

I think there's the draft. So the draft is like obviously like the normal draft in the real world you get like teams pick players or What do they call them? Like the guy coming out from the state leagues or the girls coming up from the state leagues Um and so yeah, you can only have certain players or something like that Like there's not like four lucky meals or whatever or four nat fives or whatever I'm pretty sure Couple of couple of Western Australian footy player, you know references Well looking at just one the um the brown lace. That's what I kind of brought him up So you have the brown line.

I don't even like yeah, they had it on sunday night And I josh don't worry. I hadn't even heard of lucky kneel Anyone the business player. He's got a whisper now, but he's applied to the doctors Yeah And so I mean this is where you you miss you miss it for a year and you're completely out of the loop If you if you've stopped following a team for a couple of years the whole team's different to when you used to when you used to watch it Which is actually is exciting. I mean I could get into it now and potentially get to a quite a good level quickly I mean you gotta be into it though.

Yeah, how do you actually get into something? Well, yeah, this is the problem like with the baseball stuff I feel like um Grace you're a lot better at like knowing the players and you'll be like, oh, did you see tucker? Like what tucker tucker throw or whatever? It's like to be honest.

No, I really know Yeah, yeah, I think I don't really do anything I was watching baseball and knowing the names I think that's good. Like anything me spending time on the weekend like trying to I don't take it in as well Like I there's even points where I'm embarrassed because I get excited about a play And then I realize that it's not the the astro's it's not the team I'm going for because they fucking they're always changing Yeah, and it's just very easy and also they've got their way in home Colors kids and so you get a bit confused because sometimes Astros will wear like a bright sort of um orange like a deep orange and then other times They wear gray and then other times the other teams wearing the kit color so lots of take on it is a lot Jess, what are you into anything like that? Like I reckon I'm quite into UFC. I have a pretty broad knowledge of UFC What's your favorite six UFC fighters?

John Jones number one kind of a Gregor. Of course. I like Nate Diaz. He's a real brawler who else we got I mean, they're probably top three.

Do you just want me to name off? I just wanted to know that you're like I know Jose Aldo. He's not my favorite But if you just Nate Diaz as well as Nick Diaz And then one more if you just want one more. Yeah, Francis and Ghana Okay, if you're just trying to see if I know six p.

Yes. Yeah, but like as I don't know if you care that much either No, but I do I reckon I care more about UFC than you do about baseball But that does the same much Yeah, but I reckon I'm well ahead like I'm always surprised when I'm taught when I actually watch this stuff I'm like fuck I worked my spins out was watching like UFC highlight videos stories Your hobby your passion No, it's because I did martial arts when I was younger I spent quite a bit of time doing kickboxing Muay Thai and so when you're seeing And yeah, it's definitely like I've just got this sort of like thing that I'm like if you play footy when you're younger Maybe like club footy pretty hard. You just always got the connection to the sport and so martial arts is like yeah, I'm always watching and I'm always pumped to You know see it when it's on the only thing where I fall flat is I don't pay for it And so I would go to a pub which I haven't like the last fight I went to Was at the local pub and they've been closed ever since it was like Have any I haven't seen you any you have no no no no no no I don't think no no why not I would wear the Reebok is quite synonymous with UFC. They're one of the main sponsors I'd wear something of Reebok the shorts.

So you know if you're looking at a pair of UFC Or if you're looking at some Reebok shorts, it reminds me of the USC. I don't know. It's like the it's like tap out that gear There's like fighting gear like ever like there's a bunch of brands that connect closely to martial arts It's really bugging though to be rocking moi tie shorts that you got from Thailand Just a signal that you could do a roundhouse kick to the head Yeah Wearing it does feel like sort of a slight flex. I don't know if baseball has the same sort of Filter like you don't have to worry as much with that before yeah, maybe not in Australia What do you think about the idea of us all having like our own baseball team and just having once a week I reckon it's as much as me saying do you want to be into UFC like you should start watching a UFC fight No, if you said if you said it can you wear it?

How about once a week? We all wear a UFC t-shirt or whatever My point is that I think there could be something fun once a week. We all wear baseball jerseys. Well, I will play back.

I will play baseball But you were now interested in a lot. That's why you're like a tri-hard. You're looking like a tri-hard You might go and see that I don't even care for That's the epitome of a tri-hard Well, there's nothing wrong trying hard in life Is maybe through Monday morning whips over at the game of baseball in the park and give the ball at each other and is that enough for you? Yeah, that's good.

I'll wear the full Wear the mask of the Yeah, yeah, I could definitely that's why I could get into hockey or whatever. I think there is something fun in the The clothing but I understand that is there any like race? Do you have any there any subcultures or or things in life where you would Be tempted to join in on that subculture just for their fashion I don't know probably not Potentially I would get into Yachting so that I can wear a crisp white polo and some boat shoes I Look in the summer. I mean hochi in the winter I fly over there.

I'm Alfie Yeah, I mean TJ. What's your um, if you were to reinvent yourself from a style because you don't really I was gonna say you don't have style. That's not the right word. You just don't have a style.

You don't have like I don't I never sort of like When like I don't dress like a skater. I don't dress like I'm not a punk stereo typical. I just If anything I do based on just like what's trending drop-crutch pants or you know if I can help any you won't drop crutch Right. I'm actually going right now.

I've got the one right now What sorry what kind of shoes do you wear? I can do your best job is that I can't like a pair of added ass white Um, it's a material. Yeah, no, no, no, not those ones. I've got and then I've got two added as pairs Yeah, so I've got the nested ones which are more like a runner and the other ones which are more like a Um, the classic added as but not the classic looking style.

It's the same sort of white leather shoe Um, but yeah, I mean other than that It's I've always worn like the sports shoes I fucking pissed off my feet are too fat to fit into added ass like the brand new added ass That actually looks sick Well, I'd give you my nikes because my feet were too fat for them, but they fit you so your feet are wide Yeah, I've got very wide. Why I got there. They're an e like I have to uh, yeah, I don't know if that means anything too But yeah, I have to get the um, I can't just even knew about like uh new balance assets I can't get the normal ones. I need to uh Get the wides.

Yes. Yeah, it's uh, it's annoying Shoes shoes if you got jess, or can you be quite high? Last week What do you got? I'm right now.

Just yeah, I'm barefoot right now. Sure that means it's unlike me I usually wear shoes all the time out there over there Um, just a runner's at the moment, but love love a loafer. I think is that like a donut volley? Is it?

I don't know. It's a donut volley. No volleys were like the white sort of things like vans. What's the phrase loafer?

What does that actually mean? It's it's just like a it's a black leather shoe and it has like a little thing. It kind of comes out the top Slip on like a low low heel at the back. They look like a slide Look if you're getting in a fight, you're not running off in a pair of loafers They're coming off and you're going barefoot to leg it and so yeah for sure.

I mean all for fashion Anyways are trying to be anchored at tight. Oh, yeah Have you got the the ones like what's that brand? They could be Gucci and I've got like the fluff at the back Yeah, they're beautiful boxes to get that. It's um, have you have you got do you know what I'm talking about?

The loafers Fluff Well, it's like mink mink was it mink mink here fronts like the black bit and then the back the fluffy bit coming out? Yeah, yeah real obnoxious statement that you've got a bit of coins to drop on I mean we forgot forgot the back end. It looks like you've fallen into spotlight or something Jess that looks like a new top that you're wearing. It looks great.

What tell us about the top? It's really old actually. I really really that was it. Did you just take a punt there JJ?

Like well, no, so you should already like so. I hadn't seen it before just mentioned the logo Um, it's just yeah, so I just I took a punt that it was um, it was new. I reckon you you could be worth Saying everything's sort of been around for a while because you have so many clothes. Yes Or are you like she has so much in her wardrobe?

It's got like five leather jackets. I mean not that I've seen you wear one, but actually one I've seen you wear so it's probably safer to say like tell me about that old number you're wearing Okay, so I sold one on me And so just how do you decide what you're going to wear any given day like how do you decide? Um, well at the moment I've really just been rocking my exercise tops Which this is now because it's so old. I've transitioned it from my wardrobe into my exercise cupboard.

Um, yeah And so I forgot about it was right at the bottom. I was like, oh whipped it out thought I'd uh pop it on But you ask me about this logo Yeah, you can tell it looks like Reach anything or is it a vlogum? Is it a vlogum? They've got a starter.

I don't know what um I don't know if it's a vlogum. You got so many. How about like, how about hearing like, um, was it Justin Bieber? Would only wear his undies once, you know He did a Calvin Klein deal, so I'm sure he can tell you something funny.

That's just happened I got distracted because my mum texted me and it flashes off on my screen and it goes Ha ha ha ha ha, Bridget Jones's moment, so she's obviously too much telecast Yeah, explain that because I found that funny when we're recording that Well, you've got a funny tip Well, I just I got it, but I was like I know something's back down here. Yeah I kind of laughed because I knew you'd be embarrassed I don't even care. Who doesn't wear um, uh, what do you call them? Like sucky in pants?

Like Yes, thanks. What do they call grace? Spanks. Yeah, that's often they're going out.

Um, I would love to get spanks never made it to surprise the wedding Yeah, it'd be it'd be nice I mean the problem is that I feel like I would potentially Spanx would it's not encouraging me to do like actual like the healthy work that I need to do to fix my like to you know Yeah, but it feels good when you're holding yourself in. Yeah, I agree and so Anyway, so you have so you've got like big guns big undies Let's just yeah in my defense I always wear nikas underneath like proper like nice ones I do generally probably wear good nikas out but like they covered in like multiple layers of like clothes and spanks Um, and so tell me brought up on the show the other day Um when you go out always wear nice underwear because you never know where the nights will take you and I said something like um, uh, We've all had our bridge Jones's moments and Bridget Jones the movie obviously She's wearing these like high briefs. They're kind of granny's yeah, and so I don't know about you guys, but I have You guys are so sorry, but I have my work out undies and then I have my going out on these work nice ones kind of People working nice ones Just like the just the two different ones like every day nice ones and then Exercise anyway The reason I said that is because I wear spanks sometimes when you go out and it's happened, you know, you randomly take someone home and then Yeah, there's like I was surely even a conversation. You said it's like it's nothing or not If you've said if you've said I've had the experience where I have been with somebody and You know, I thought I was in an early home They were big and I didn't say anything.

I haven't really thought about it till then And I and at the moment I'm like yeah It did go through my mind not as much judgment as I threw it then and I still want to speak silly. Just speak silly You thought you were a hero? My time No, no, no, I was like clearly and I could tell she was a bit embarrassed and so at that point I'm like you feel the vibe and so if you don't if you just if you lent into it. I don't know this is You're the color thing.

So I can just imagine this is not too dissimilar to a Stockings. No, it's just like stockings that are extended up to you sort of To your chest sort of thing just under your chest how far are they going? You can get like for like kind of under your rib cage That wasn't my that wasn't my incident Underwear that was Actual like big beige like baggy. I don't know what was happening It's just validates the whole thing like guys do think about this stuff It's not the yeah, but I think that what TJ's describing is the the quality of the underwear in the sense of like the saggyness or things like that Which is like we could have the same criticism around someone's t-shirt if it's not ironed.

Yeah So there's a difference between that and yeah, I don't think there's a there's an issue with a um With a with a spank type of thing. I mean, I don't mind the spanks I'm just they're quite practical. It's like obviously you want to sort of before office bank for someone too Like is that part of the undressing process or do you feel my all my all my ex-girlfriends have done I think when you're with somebody it's like makes you don't really give a shit at that point Spat yeah, I've bought off some spanks in my days I'm going to babies. That's like that's a quote It makes sense.

So that was on the latest episode of too much tully, but Tully wasn't happy with it Well, Tully's the opposite relatable selfless like she wears two she wears a matching Laundereye set when she goes out, which could be seen as overkill or it could be same as a good approach and you know, she's a friend And more Thought of my mum picturing me having the bridge of drones as moment I mean, I love the idea of eventually is having um some of our podcasts animated. I think it would be great to have that scene With your audio like it you was an animated character. I think that would be quite funny. Yeah Thanks.

I think that was okay. We all feel better. I'm good. Are you better?

You good? Yeah, he's great. I just have one more question though. Yes.

Okay Last night grand final Oh, yes, how you feeling? Are you happy or are you saying it's one? I'm happy because you're one's obviously one. Yeah, I can't believe they're my second team.

So I'm going crazy Well, yeah, I mean I never enough and a nighttime grand final as well. There was a good vibe by so much jeez Oh, I do so many beers. Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, I was a UFC to be honest. It was um Mads with L is I want to get your UFC. Yeah, at least a sweatband like it like just for your wrist or something UFC merch. I just want to actually see if there's any good UFC merch men's t-shirts.

There might be some good shit Oh, it's all a bit broken I do I do actually like easy. Um at a Sun. Yeah, he's rail at a Sun. Yeah, I don't think that's he say so no I don't mind that party last night Like with you Any bridge Oh, yeah, your family they could be in Bendigo.

Are they able to do anything? Yeah, be party or anything? Um, well, no, because that's a really restricted as well pretty much, but you can have five people over from another household So I don't think this is how to I mean, that's a change for me. I would have had the weekend the same way, but thanks everyone.

Thank you grace. Thank you Jess. Thank you Tommy. It's the daily talk show enjoy your your weekend and we'll see you tomorrow.
