Who is the Grand Jester and what stories are shared?
What did you say?
I said I just want to be drunk or asleep.
Well I can do one of those things for you. As soon as dad gets started on his stories.
What was Matty's experience like returning to PNG after 20 years?
Oh, no.
He'll be fast asleep. Renovation will kill me.
Yeah. You're in the midst of a reno, people.
Oh, no, at the start.
Yeah. Well, we're like that pub that's going through renos and the only room that stays open in the whole pub is the pokey room. But this time it is the podcast room. So around this podcast, there is chaos.
Well, can I also just say they've actually cut the electricity to the room. So me and Jack came in to set it up and now we have external cables that just provide like freelance electricity.
It's from the neighbours. Hang on.
What insights are provided about 'No Man's Land'?
Did you just say freelance electricity?
Yeah, we're renting it.
That's a bigger stuff up than the Grand Jester. Yeah.
How do personal stories shape the conversation in this episode?
The Grand Jester.
Trish just had to do live reads, right? And you don't have to do live reads often.
You used to back in the day. I used to.
What humorous anecdotes arise from Uncle Martin's stories?
Can we explain what live reads are, Coop?
Oh, yeah.
What updates are shared about Trish's week?
So when you hear, you know, like, hey, it's Matty Johns or hey, it's Matty Johns' son or Matty Johns' wife and they proceed to talk about, you know, an advertisement of sorts, that's what we call a live read in the industry. And Trish has been lucky enough to be blessing us with her vocal cords coming up next week in the live reads. Just stay tuned and have a listen to them in next week's episodes because they... It took 10 minutes to record live reads. It should have taken about two minutes because she kept misreading grand gesture and kept saying the grand jester. Yes.
I'm severely stressed. I'm on the edge, man. You need to look after me.
We're going to look after you today. I'm going to nurse you through this podcast.
Yeah. I mean, the only thing I've chosen is my floorboards.
Hey, to calm your nerves, a lucky thing for you is that you married the grand jester.
And my favorite thing is you said the only thing you've chosen is the floorboards. You and dad have been fighting today. Not fighting. Well, it sort of seemed like fighting.
What are the NRL tips and predictions discussed?
It was fighting. Because the one thing Dad had an input in, you went above his head and chose them, and he just – That was an outdoor paper.
But Tricia's actually – Tricia's gone. She can see that now. It's just that Tricia's had so many things to do. Yeah. It was a labor site. So at the back, Tricia wanted to put white tiles, and I said, Tricia, we put white tiles. They're going to be filthy, and all you're going to do is clean them all the time. She agreed, and then we go back. She goes, and I've decided to put the white tiles in. There was just a pause, which was enough.
Can I ask, like, what went through your head?
What were you thinking, babe?
I couldn't find another option. It looked beautiful. It would have looked beautiful.
Well, there's no dirt on it.
Yeah, I know. But then I thought about the people I live with and the dog and the boards on the grass and, yeah, I don't know what we're going to do.
Well, then. Yeah, okay. We'll find it.
It's fine. Mate, there's tiles everywhere. Hey, the positive thing is we're not short of options. What I think for your problem is the way your brain works, you have too many options and then you overthink and then all of a sudden what you thought was a good idea yesterday, you come in, the build is halfway through hammering into a wall that you told him to remove and you go, actually, I don't want that wall there anymore. No, that's not true.
Too much going on in your brain.
That's not true. Yeah, there is a lot going on.
Like when you're trying to pronounce King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard.
And the Wizard Lizard. Isn't that the guy on the boat in Budapest?
No, in Budapest, in Istanbul.
So they're a huge band in Turkey. Yeah. I think it's pronounced Budapesh.
Yeah, but this is Istanbul. Okay. Different shitty. My favourite actor is Joe Pesty. Yeah, okay. He's off to a flying start, ladies and gentlemen. Johns, hold the phone blocky. Out of barrier four.
Someone get me a drink. Anything. I'd even drink metho at this point.
We don't know what's in the house cube available.
