But in practice, I feel like there needs to be a bit more equality of bears that are poked.
So, for instance, if you're going to be running some arts festival and you're going to go, oh, let's do these things that, like, some people in the Australian Jewish community are going to be kind of annoyed by or whatever, like, cool, but...
Spread the edgelording.
You know, like it just becomes a bit like, well, you know, you can't just be poking one bear.
You've got to spread the bear poking.
Yeah, I'd definitely be just trying to tell a good story.
So I wouldn't – I never have the starting point of, like, I'm going to be a – I know this sounds like I'm lying, but it's so true.

surface level kind of humour in it.
It's like, it's, I'm seriously getting exorcised by, and I'm kind of quiet or whatever like that.

I'm sort of like acting a bit differently than I act in nearly every other situation.
So anyway, what I'm saying is I wouldn't like go, oh, I'm going to be provocative.
But for instance, I'd...
Absolutely.
I'd love to do like an absolute religion series, totally, 100%, which I reckon just organically would end up being pokey.
