Trendsetters! It's almost here. AlphaFest, May 30. Don't miss out. Get on to MoshTix and grab yourself a ticket before they sell out. Patreon has been pumping. Moochinator3053 hasn't slept in three weeks. He hates sleep. But you know who we don't hate, Tom, and that's our sponsors. That's right, Pooh. Let's give them a pump up. Better Beer, the official beer of the Alpha Blokes podcast. Get around it. CTC, keep your dome out of the sun with one of the many great country trucking caps. SP Tools, they've got you covered, whether it's on the worksite or in the shed. Papa Macro's healthy eating made easy. Port West workwear that is built to last, just like this community. And last but not least, Ned's. The only bookie that we have a punt with here at Alpha Blokes.
Stay Ned-ly.
I just want to say from the bottom of me heart, I'd like to take this chance to apologise to absolutely nobody. The double champ does what the fuck he wants.
Safety first, stay focused, keep pinging the cup.
Good morning and welcome back to another episode of the Alpha Blokes podcast. We're here to give the everyday battler a voice and delete head noise one laugh at a time. If you're having a beer, make it a better beer. Jogging a can, winning a tin. The athlete's choice, I'm not having a beer today. Nope. I don't need to have a beer for a while. No beers. No. No beers. You having a beer, Clint? No, mate. No? No beer. Did you have a few drinks, mate, over the weekend? What did you get up to, Clint? I don't know if you're aware. There was this really cool thing happening at Sandstone Point. Oh, was it? Can you tell me what it was called? I think you were there. Yeah, you were doing comedy and then everyone else played a bit of music.
Oh, that's right. That's right. That's right. Yeah, yeah. Oh, holy shit, mate. It's going to be hard for me to put into words today exactly what that meant to me on the weekend. Yeah. Holy shit, Trendsetters. We've done some pretty cool shit in the past few years, but that was on another level for me. Holy fuck. How good? Mate, in a year full of negativity and bullshit, tough times for a lot of people, there was such a fun, positive experience that I'll never forget for the rest of my life. Like, once again, the ABC showed up in force and we're so grateful to have the best community on earth behind us. Mm, 100%. Jono and Danny for putting all this together with us and pulling it off. What started as just an idea and a conversation about six months ago come to fruition on the weekend.
Dave, Rob and the whole Comiskey group, the best venue in Australia, in my opinion. I'm not just saying that. It fucking is. Mm. All together. Um... Mate, just fucking mind-blowing and very humbling, just amazing, eh? Yeah, it was prime, man. Just seeing the smiles on people's faces and, like I just said before, it hasn't been the easiest year for everyone in Australia. Shit, yeah, Joe. And to be able to do that, to give people a bit of light, was very special to me. Yeah, that's right. I still don't even know what to say about it. It still feels like it's not real. 100%. It feels like it's not real. You know?
Yeah.
Oh, man. It feels like we got a really cool opportunity to go and be a part of this cool festival, but I think sinking in that it was ours and with our people, that was the craziest thing to sink in, right? 100%. Before we actually go through the whole festival, a fair bit happened before it. Should we start on Friday? What a shit. Oh, shit. Tell me all about it. Well, mate, fucking, it was Big Shitty's birthday on Friday, so happy birthday to the big squirtly. You know, I thought, oh, it's me mate's birthday. I might throw him a festival. Yeah. So, you know, did you like your birthday present? Yeah, mate, it was awesome. Yeah. Thank you. But I actually got you something else for your birthday. Beck found it online.
You did. Now, this is Tekken Out with Tommy today, real early in the piece. What have you got there, big shitty? It may look like a gun, but it's a durry holder. He's going to pull it back here, pop the Glock back, get a dart out, and then you close up, and then it lights it out of the end of the gun.
