What are the highlights of Luisa Dal Din's career in radio?
We've got two Lews in the studio. Yeah. Jesus, one Lew just bit me. Sorry about that. And it's not the dog.
Sorry about that, mate. I've got to be friendly. What about we're on the balcony and you go, all right, come inside, Louie Lou, and I go, yeah, let's get into it.
I don't realise. Talking to the dog.
How did the conversation shift to Coachella chaos?
First name basis already. Give me a nickname. Get off his lap, Lew.
Sorry, I'll get to my chair now.
Bring me home soon.
Go on.
Well, it's not the first time you go, Isaac, we were actually just reminiscing on the car ride over about the first time you and Lou ever spoke. Dad wouldn't remember.
Oh, yeah, yeah. We did it on the phone.
What awkward messaging situations are discussed?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was very drunk.
And you go to me, you go, oh, Lou, I tell you what, New Zealand has a very special place in my heart. Oh, God, it's got a special – you just keep rattling off all these places.
Oh, yeah. It's good. Well, you're from Palmerston North. Yeah. Spent a bit of time in Palmerston North. Yeah. We played a game there against the Tigers and then Ansett in the old days. Ansett was an airline that went broke. Yeah. And when we were over there, they went on strike. So we were actually trapped in Palmerston North for about five days. Not a great place to be trapped. And do you know how we got home? How we got home was Alan Jones. Alan Jones was the coach of the Balmain Tigers and he rang the Prime Minister, Paul Keating, and said, if you don't get me home tomorrow for my radio show, I will just do a vendetta against you. And we got a special dispensation to fly back to Australia.
What are the boys' thoughts on reality TV?
Is Alan Jones the one who did the chant, horny, horny, horny?
Yeah. That's probably the least of it. Oh, okay. I didn't think you were going to bring – I didn't know where you were going to – is Alan Jones the – I'm not great for my – I thought he was.
You know, reading the news. Yeah. So he probably can't keep me out of that.
Well, you youngsters, it's all TikTok and that these days, Facebook.
Coops and I is doing dances on the way here, dabbing.
How do they feel about sports chat in the podcast?
Yeah. MySpace, yous are all over it. Dad likes TikTok.
Yeah, you actually do. But it's dangerous. You can sit there scrolling for hours.
He's got a guest account, Lou. So, like, we didn't want to give him an official because we don't know what he's going to, you know. Like, I went through someone else's, someone very prominent's Instagram the other day, and the things they're reposting, obviously they're hitting the button without realising it. Yeah.
That happened to Jarch's dad. He was reposting things on accident and Jarch had to go and delete them from his desk. He wouldn't even realise he's clicked it, but then it just shows the inside to people's like FYPs, you know, like for your page while they're seeing. Mine's weird. Mine's like... a lot of AI animals, like pigs dancing.
Oh, yeah. I said to Trish, because Trish set it up. She goes, oh, how are you finding it? And I said this on air.
What rogue segments are featured in the episode?
I went, I wasn't aware of an algorithm. And I went, it's sort of weird. I said, all it is is like middle-aged women dancing in bikinis. And she went, yeah.
You're like, you've engaged with that host, that's why they keep coming up.
Oh, Faria.
Yeah. A lot of my guy respect for women, middle-aged women in bikinis.
You do, yeah. And it still hasn't changed, the algorithm. Let's just make that short. How are you enjoying radio at the moment? Because we had Jarch on a couple of years ago. I think you guys hadn't gone into radio yet. You're just doing the podcast now.
Yeah.
Are you sick of each other yet? Because you've gone from doing two podcasts a week to now every single afternoon you're with each other.
So we do nine shows a week together because we do five radio and then four podcasts because we do two Patreon, which people pay for. You know what's really weird is some days we will get a coffee, go to the podcast, get lunch.
What insights are shared about social media interactions?
Yep. go to radio, go to the gym, and then we might have, like, a work event or, like, get drunk that night. And we're like, how are we not sick of each other? It's like a sibling relationship. So, like, we can sort of fight and then things are fine.
