And I'm facing the dude and, like, the light is shining onto me. Biffing with a boner. Yeah, onto my cock. Biffing with a boner. There's moonlight on my cock. I'm dripping sweat. Oh, no. I can only see his silhouette. I can't see his face. To this day, I couldn't pick him out of a lineup. And I'm there, like, arms up, guard up. I'm like, bro, I fucking... We can do this.

So today we are here for a very fun episode with our darling friend, Illy, whose actual name is Al. Al. Yeah, in case anyone was wondering. He, if you don't know who he is, firstly, have you been living under a rock? He is... An Aussie hip hop artist. I can't stop saying Aussie hip hop.

I know, because we really try and bring it back this ep. We're bringing back Aussie hip hop. Did we ever go anywhere, though? Did we ever leave, babe? Illy, why are you called Illy, can I ask?

75.191 - 81.021

It's just a nickname my sister gave me when we were kids. There's no interesting story behind it. It's a great name.

81.041 - 95.522 Lucy Jackson

Yeah, thanks. His bangers include Paper Cuts, It Can Wait, Tightrope. It's like I'm walking on a tightrope. And if you were at our Melbourne show last year, he was our surprise act and it went off.

202.491 - 212.84 Nikki Westcott

Anyway, that's not what we're here to talk about. It's so romantic, though. We rolled in hot and Ellie's like, what's going on? Where have you been? What are you doing? And we're like, honestly, we're coming off the back of a bit of a big night. Just a bit of a night. Yeah. Bit of a night.

0

214.281 - 215.162 Lucy Jackson

217.744 - 218.605 Lucy Jackson

We had a coffee.

218.685 - 218.785 Nikki Westcott

Yeah.

218.765 - 221.109

So you know when you can have a coffee? Yeah, yeah.

Chapter 5: What makes the Snow Machine festival unique?

723.523 - 731.373

Where has this been? And then we woke up the next day and it was just like, ha ha. And she's just like laughing emoji react. And I'm like, yeah, okay, cool.

0

731.393 - 749.537 Lucy Jackson

Me and Illy are like, holy, let's bring back Aussie hip hop. Maybe we should in September in Queensland. Seriously though. Honestly, I went through a phase where I was just so hyper fixated on Hilltop Woods not long ago. And I was like, Illy, let's fucking bring back Aussie hip hop. It rules. It's a vibe.

0

749.517 - 761.109

Yeah, it's fun. I mean, at festivals, it's like it's natural habitat. Like people like, you know, it kind of goes away. But then as soon as Nosebleed section plays at a festival, see you later. Oh, that's true.

0

761.129 - 766.274 Lucy Jackson

Everyone can get around it, you know. I love Crosby's sweater. Wearing that.

0

766.794 - 767.075

Crosby?

767.095 - 767.495 Lucy Jackson

Crosby?

767.695 - 768.136

Crosby.

768.216 - 769.197 Lucy Jackson

Crosby. Anyway.

769.217 - 771.519

Crosby is more politically correct, actually.

Chapter 6: What is Illy's perspective on the current state of Aussie hip hop?

1409.771 - 1413.695

Oh, yeah. It really like has negative effect on your well-being. Well, like 18 months, dude.

1415.156 - 1416.539 Nikki Westcott

Yeah. Like surely you tire.

0

1416.759 - 1417.641

Yeah, you know.

1417.862 - 1425.238 Lucy Jackson

I'm still perplexed by this woman. So like did anyone do any kind of, was there any backlash for her?

1425.418 - 1434.578

Did she have any kind of, you obviously didn't press charges. No, I think they just let her know and we were pretty much like we just wanted to be done and put it behind us.

1434.558 - 1444.264 Nikki Westcott

That's the thing, babe. I think online trolls, it's like not people, like they're doing this in their, they're not publicly like Lucy Jackson online troll.

1444.284 - 1444.906

No, of course.

1695.02 - 1695.241 Nikki Westcott

Literally.

0

1695.762 - 1709.481 Lucy Jackson

No, so festivals in the 2010s were... Like, we're very millennial, right? Like, the three of us here, because... I think it's just such a different experience having grown up and going to all those festivals. What was that band that played at every single one, Nick?
