0.284 - 22.167 Jack Dwyer

This is a Grouse House podcast. G'day guys, how you going? This is Jack Duane, the new co-host of the Aunty Donna podcast. I'm joined by my co-host Mark Bonanno and Tom Armstrong. This is the new Aunty Donna lineup. We're so excited to have you all here today.

Chapter 2: What changes are happening with the Aunty Donna podcast lineup?

22.287 - 52.814 Jack Dwyer

As you know, last week Broden retired. No, no lyrics, no lyrics, no lyrics, if that's all right. Sorry, I should just say with me now taking the role of the co-host and Tom staying on taking on Broden's role as co-host, we have had to bring in a new producer, audio producer. What was your name again, man? My name is Batman. So his name is Batman. Wait.

0

53.215 - 78.217 Mark Bonanno

He's a Batman. Is it a... Yeah, I've got a couple of questions. Are you someone playing the character of Batman? Are you the actual Batman? Is your name just Batman? It has nothing to do with the character. Although this music would suggest... I mean, not the actual soundtrack, but did you look up royalty-free Batman-esque?

0

78.237 - 80.848 Broden Kelly

I'm the Dark Defender of Gotham City, Batman.

0

81.183 - 91.021 Jack Dwyer

Is this copyrighted music, man? No, it's Epidemic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's Burton-esque. Oh, good. Burton-esque. That's great, man. Alfman-esque.

0

Chapter 3: What is the significance of Batman's introduction as a producer?

91.041 - 112.415 Jack Dwyer

Alfman-esque. Does sound like Batman. Good job, mate. I'd love to pick your brain about how you found that piece of music at some point. You don't need to. That's your old job. But this is the thing, right? People are going to remember you on their way up. I see in Batman that he is someone that is on his way up, and I don't know where he's going to be in a couple of years.

0

112.615 - 115.118 Mark Bonanno

Is he Bruce Wayne? Do you want to find out if he's Bruce Wayne?

0

115.198 - 128.115 Jack Dwyer

Hey, Batman. Under the cape and cow. I've got a mate here accusing you of some things, saying that you're Bruce Wayne under the cape and cow. Do you want me to tell him to maybe shove it? Thank you.

0

129.952 - 155.236 Mark Bonanno

batman awesome awesome that's awesome that doesn't help that doesn't answer anything producer batman from the city of gotham producer batman from the city of gotham right so maybe he's like uh like thank you yeah thank you like at the start of the bat ham film the dark knight when there are copycats I'm not wearing hockey pads. I'm not wearing hockey pads.

0

155.256 - 157.04 Mark Bonanno

Maybe he's one of the ones wearing hockey pads.

Chapter 4: How does Batman define his role within the podcast?

157.26 - 165.737 Jack Dwyer

Brad Ham, can I get you to line up some sort of newsy music for me, something that sort of gives the news vibes?

0

166.719 - 169.645 Mark Bonanno

It's worth mentioning that Jack has come in –

0

169.625 - 199.446 Mark Bonanno

hard uh on the co-host thing he has completely redesigned the the structure of the podcast from the ground up um and for for at least this episode we're just gonna let jack do his thing see how it turns out it is the 501th episode so we got time to play around before any other big milestones you know you're gonna have a gonna have a good one you're gonna have a bad one here and there thanks mate so what is this we are doing you gotta riff a little sure thing man

0

199.426 - 206.137 Jack Dwyer

Well, how can I riff better in future? How can I? Because you've been on my fucking back since day one.

0

206.157 - 207.459 Mark Bonanno

No, no, no, no. I haven't been on your back.

207.479 - 222.103 Jack Dwyer

And we're equals now, so you can't fucking talk down to me anymore, okay? All right, I'm sorry. Seriously. All right, all right. When I came in here two weeks ago as the audio producer, you were on my... Batman, I haven't told you to play the music yet, okay?

222.684 - 222.784

Okay?

222.95 - 226.537 Jack Dwyer

I'm just laying down some ground rules. Do you want to do this off?

226.777 - 232.628 Mark Bonanno

Because this isn't particularly funny. It's more just sort of mean hearted. Kind of like laying down the law.

Chapter 5: What humorous exchanges occur regarding Batman's identity?

235.353 - 256.207 Jack Dwyer

I think it's important for our young male followers to see a man in leadership. Yeah. And I'm showing you, I'm telling you who's boss. I'm telling you what we need to get done. I'm not being aggressive. I'm being direct. Right. You have been, I've been here for two weeks now. Yeah. And you were coming at me. You were making accusations at me last week. I am your equal now.

0

256.688 - 256.949 Unknown

Okay.

0

256.969 - 269.909 Jack Dwyer

Okay. And you're going to show me the respect. Music started. So we should probably jump in. Batman. If you play music out of time again, I swear to God. Okay.

0
0

270.942 - 274.131 Mark Bonanno

I swear to God. I got a question for Batman, if that's all right.

274.212 - 274.553 Jack Dwyer

Yeah, go for it.

274.573 - 278.183 Mark Bonanno

Who is the most fearsome foe in your gallery of rogues?

279.106 - 281.172 Broden Kelly

The Joker.

283.463 - 294.995 Jack Dwyer

And what about the Joker, Batman? What about the Joker makes him such a fearsome foe to you? Some people just want to watch the world burn. Yeah, and I'm guessing that.

Chapter 6: What are the expectations for Batman as the new co-host?

295.095 - 296.316 Jack Dwyer

Is he one of those people?

0

296.496 - 296.816 Broden Kelly

Yeah.

0

297.297 - 313.609 Mark Bonanno

Yeah. Sure. And you catch him, you lock him up in Arkham, he gets out, he runs amok again, over and over and over, the same rhythm repeating. Bats, what are you going to do about this Joker fella?

0

313.709 - 324.383 Jack Dwyer

I have a code. Yeah, and what is that code, mate? I don't kill. Okay, sure. Or use guns. Sure. Cool. That's awesome, man. Tom, have you met Batman before?

0

324.864 - 326.787 Tom Armstrong

Not before today, no. G'day, Batman. Tom.

327.408 - 358.689 Jack Dwyer

All right, new segment. It's Crypto Updates. Bitcoin volatility. Bitcoin fell near 60K, rebounded towards 70K, now range bound with high uncertainty. What does that mean, 70K? Broader market slump, total crypto value down sharply in 2026, investors rotating to gold and safer assets. Industry pivot to AI, some mining firms shifting to AI. Of course they're fucking up. Which is good.

359.83 - 361.412 Jack Dwyer

AI is the future now.

362.422 - 389.02 Mark Bonanno

I think that's good. AI in the future. I'm stoked with what's happened to the price of RAM. It's all good stuff. Don't get me started. Now, Batman, this is kind of a question for you, maybe, because you're on the outside of this. Thank you. Thank you, Batman. And we're just kind of letting Jack run this. Was the crypto bit particularly funny? Because it is a comedy podcast. Yeah.

Chapter 7: How does the podcast address the transition of power from Mark?

389 - 391.085 Mark Bonanno

which I just think is an important thing to address.

0

391.145 - 413.562 Jack Dwyer

And I'm happy with change. I embrace change. Is that important that it stays a comedy podcast? Is that a core part of the identity? No, but I think a discussion about... Well, I'm discussing it with you now, man. Right. Do you want it to continue to be a comedy podcast? I think that would be a good idea. 500 episodes. Was I talking to you?

0

414.083 - 414.343 Tom Armstrong

Sorry, sorry.

0

414.363 - 416.006 Jack Dwyer

I think he's allowed to speak.

0

416.467 - 417.729 Tom Armstrong

I thought we were equals, Jack.

417.749 - 418.871 Mark Bonanno

Batman's allowed to speak.

419.031 - 439.493 Jack Dwyer

Thank you. Thank you. I think you'll find in the contract when I came on board as the co-host, I did get my dad to look over it and there are a few lines in there that when it comes to certain creative decisions, I do have the final call. Now, I don't want to play that card. You signed it.

440.57 - 443.394 Tom Armstrong

I don't want to play that card. That sounds about right for us.

443.595 - 453.33 Jack Dwyer

I'll probably sign it on your behalf, Mark. Yeah, fucking hell. I didn't read it. But that is the case. So that actually does put me in a higher position technically. Okay. But I'm taking the risk as well.

Chapter 8: What are the final thoughts on the future of the Aunty Donna podcast?

457.155 - 468.032 Jack Dwyer

In what way are you taking the risk? Can you? Yeah. Batman. Don't just play applause. I swear to fucking God. Batman. Wait, Batman, where did you go to school?

0

468.313 - 480.699 Broden Kelly

Thank you. I trained under the League of Shadows. Where was that, though? I think Greenland, Iceland. Where did you go to school before that, though? I was born in the darkness.

0

481.38 - 483.602 Jack Dwyer

Did you go to Skev's?

0

484.083 - 485.485 Broden Kelly

No.

0

485.505 - 493.956 Jack Dwyer

No. Because you remind me of a guy I knew at Skev's. No. You sure you didn't go to Skev's? No. Oh, no worries. Did you go to Skev's?

494.597 - 494.657 Unknown

No.

497.05 - 515.659 Mark Bonanno

Unfortunately no And Tom did you go to skips? No I went to Viewbank College Thank you Thank you Oh, that's crazy. None of yous went to skivs. Nah, man. No. Wow. Bit pricey for a primary school teacher and a butcher.

515.94 - 529.539 Jack Dwyer

Not if you put your mind to it. Not if you prioritise education. Oh. That's a bit rude. If you prioritise your children's education, you can get them to skivs.

529.619 - 555.41 Mark Bonanno

A little less on the... Stings. Yeah, a little less on the stings. What is your podcast producing history, Batman? Because we don't have a presentation, although I would love one. I would actually love a presentation. No, no. If you want to keep this role and eventually graduate to be over here on these neck-busting couches.
