53.018 - 68.74 Eddie

Edward's still out of action this week. He'll be back. Whatever the date is on Monday. Next week. Sebo, once again, the greatest 14 of all time.

0

69.001 - 85.437 Tom

I'm back, but I am slightly disappointed that this week came as a surprise to come on, but also, like, I'm not firing all cylinders. No, no, yeah, yeah. I'm fucking Tom Sizemore at the end of Saving Private Ryan, you know. He's copping bullets. He's still walking. Yeah, no, he was getting shot in the ass, though.

0

85.457 - 105.047 Eddie

Listen. No one is at their best, and no, you haven't been given the opportunity to rise to the dizzying heights of previous appearances. But you know what? This is what being the 14 man's about, though, isn't it? Sometimes you've just got to rise to the occasion. I'm probably back from the weekend today.

105.027 - 130.596 Tom

yeah like tomorrow i'll be fully back i'm mentally back but like physically i'm just not like yeah yes the weekend but like leading up to it and that and like no jim haven't played much golf recently as much as golf can fuck you back for someone with my back issues and actually just getting back so bad it can't make it well no like just even moving it even like like doing a swing it kind of releases that thoracic area a bit and i can get some other kind of problems but like i'm just so tight yeah i'm

130.576 - 133.799 Tom

I can't sleep. I couldn't get comfy on the couch last night.

134.36 - 140.406 Eddie

Just some serious first world problems you got here. I am getting sick of driving all the way in from Newport. I'll tell you, my back's starting to hurt.

140.426 - 151.157 Tom

Yeah, the car. Well, that's why. Another thing, I haven't even got around to it. Normally I have a lot of tennis balls in the car and you give yourself a little massage.

Chapter 2: What challenges does Sebo face this week?

213.009 - 231.676 Tom

Get in. Even if you know you're going to last like 10 minutes and you're sweating and stuff, it's just like, that's when you feel relief. That's when you feel... I couldn't do that last two nights because I'm somehow addicted to this Jon Hamm Neighbours and Friends TV show. Is it comedy series? What is it? Yeah, it's one of those kind of like dramedies. Yeah, right. Like just like a rich dude.

0

231.696 - 246.415 Tom

You get into your shows, don't you? Yeah, I do. I get into my shows hard. Your friends and your neighbours. Friends and your neighbours, yeah. It's that one where there's that meme of him like munted dancing that went around. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just a rich dude who loses his job and then just ends up just robbing all his mates.

0

246.916 - 262.504 Eddie

See... And I think I need to get – I mean, I've probably said this a bunch of times to you, but like getting into something – obviously, I have historically just waterboarded myself with rugby league content because it's the job, but I also like it. So it's – I don't know whether there's too many rugby league shows now.

0

262.644 - 279.992 Tom

I think there is. Well, especially like obviously there's people with certain thresholds of rugby league. Like, I mean, I don't count us as. I'm probably not up there, but like it's a good switch off when you're into a show. Like when you're into it where like if you're just watching rugby league shows, you can be into it, but it doesn't promote the anti-scroll vibe nature of it.

0

280.012 - 283.217 Tom

Like I'm going to have my warm shower, get my glass of milk.

283.237 - 289.947 Eddie

Yeah, I think for me it's more like, and I think back to when like NRL 360 was the only show. Yes. All news ran through there. Yeah. Like that was it.

289.927 - 290.429 Tom

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

290.449 - 298.587 Eddie

Whereas now it's like so there's like I'm looking for news of a night. I'm looking for breaking stories or anything and like it just doesn't feel like there is anything anymore.

299.427 - 310.341 Tom

No, well, there's no huge breaking story because, like, unless it's like a Payne Haas or a Hakeem, should I say, like, that comes out of nowhere. It's like everything's just slowly mentioning happening everywhere.

Chapter 3: How do the hosts view the current state of rugby league shows?

784.093 - 794.154 Tom

And the reason they can manipulate people is because they just, they can read people, but they can't feel it themselves. So when they do actually commit that crime, they actually feel like a rush of emotions.

0

794.254 - 795.677 Eddie

It's like the only time they feel anything.

0

795.697 - 796.539 Tom

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0

796.559 - 799.385 Unknown

As many as one in 22 people could be.

0

799.826 - 799.926

What?

799.906 - 806.615 Eddie

What's the percentage of gay people? And I'm not saying gay people are psychopaths. I'm just wondering the, like, if that's how many people there are.

806.635 - 814.765 Tom

But, like, a lot of CEOs would be, like, sociopaths on some level. Like, people who can just, oh, HR people who can just come in and go, you're fired. Like, you have to not be an MP.

814.785 - 834.734 Eddie

Well, my wife's in HR and she literally fucking, like, crushes her spirit. I don't know, but, I mean, I don't know if the, this is me now just going on a tangent to defend Mort Wharf. But no, but I think it's more the CEO who's like, fire this person and then we've got the HR person to come and sit in there who's probably like, I had to fire 20 fucking people today. One in 15.

834.834 - 841.029 Eddie

Because otherwise I lose my job. So there's- One in 15 to one in 30. And the reason I say this is there's heaps of gay people, right? Gay people everywhere.

Chapter 4: What team does the speaker decide to support?

2693.24 - 2695.343 Eddie

Fuck it. What else am I looking for here?

0

2695.323 - 2700.573 Unknown

Just wanted to shout out – this is a bit of a weird one, Tom. Okay. I just wanted to shout out the people of Cronulla.

0

Chapter 5: What shout-outs are made to the community?

2700.753 - 2709.751 Unknown

Oh. Which is rare for us. Yeah. But Good Day did one of our Good Day Goers Run Clubs there last week, and the turnout was absolutely sensational.

0

2709.771 - 2711.273 Eddie

One of the top three biggest turnouts we've had.

0

2711.474 - 2715.782 Unknown

I didn't realise the people of the Shire loved their multivitamins and their electrolytes so much, Tom.

0

2715.822 - 2731.428 Eddie

Tell you what, and, you know – We obviously have, we talk honestly and robustly about Cronulla, the rugby league team. Beautiful part of the world, though. Glorious part of the world. Beautiful part of the world. Shout out to everyone who turned up to the Good Day Goers Run Club. We love you. It was great to see you all. We're sorry about your rugby league team. Shout out, good day.

0

2731.488 - 2732.009 Eddie

Shout out, good day.

2732.029 - 2738.38 Unknown

Shout out, good day. Shout out, good day. Shout out, good day. And if you would like us to visit your community, put a little run club there, just hit us up on Instagram.

2738.4 - 2740.323 Eddie

People in Newport. Yeah, I know.

2740.463 - 2752.026 Unknown

There are some people at Newport. I actually got inboxed by someone recently at Newport. And then I started thinking to myself, well, maybe if you're going to go south, you could go north. You know what I'm saying? Good day, I was not coming to you.

2752.782 - 2776.27 Eddie

Now, while we're on football, yeah, this is a football podcast now, so suck a dick. There's been a Spygate update. Oh, in Billy. In the championship, in Billy Salt. So if you listen to the Monday one, the Monday show, you'll know that in the championship, the division below the Premier League. Yeah. Southampton? Yeah.

Chapter 6: How does the conversation about rugby league teams in Vegas unfold?

2790.19 - 2794.216 Tom

A tree that is sticking out like- There's no cover. There's no cover.

0

2794.236 - 2796.238 Eddie

He's just standing there with an iPhone next to a tree.

0

2796.258 - 2799.964 Tom

If anything, from a distance, your eye would naturally go towards that tree.

0
0

2800.184 - 2803.089 Eddie

Yeah, what's that thing that's not a tree right next to the tree? Is that an animal?

Chapter 7: What is the latest update on Spygate?

2804.751 - 2826.478 Eddie

Can you get up what the latest is? Because basically they were competing to get promoted, right? Yes. So you get $150 million guaranteed if you get promoted to Premier League. They were – spying on whoever it was. Middlesbrough. Middlesbrough. They've now been kicked out. So they were – they'd won. Like they were – Oh, so it's been like kicked out because of the spy.

0

2826.498 - 2827.339 Unknown

Because of the spy.

0

2827.619 - 2834.746 Eddie

Yeah, they've been fucking expelled from the playoffs. They also have like a four-game penalty from the next season. Yeah, four-point deduction the next season.

0

2834.866 - 2854.235 Tom

And then the other team's been reinstated. All because this fucking Billy Salt. But the more you think about it, the crazier it is where if you're going – like it's essentially – it's 150 million job, right? If you're talking like a bank heist, it's 150 mil job. You're going to, you know, you're sending out Billy Salt. I know. To be the scout.

0

2854.255 - 2871.584 Tom

They're like, I'm like- That's the name of the guy, the spy. Spy games go on everywhere, especially in the UK. They fucking invented the crap, right? Spy games. But like, if you're going, it's one thing. To go, okay, we're already at the top and we're just sending out an intern and, you know, we get a slap on the wrist, you know, four games or whatever.

2871.604 - 2877.596 Tom

But if you go, we have the chance to get 150 mil, get into the comp and you send out Billy Salt?

2877.616 - 2886.491 Eddie

Like you've got to be taking it more seriously, don't you? Is there like a statement from anyone? Is there a statement from Salt? I'll try and find one. I feel bad for Billy Salt.

2886.531 - 2897.662 Tom

I know, he's fucked. He's fucked across the board though. But think about those, like how bloodthirsty these bloody edges are to get even to the next competition. Like every fair, like Billy Salt, if he won't be able to walk down the street.

2898.062 - 2910.094 Eddie

He won't be able to walk down the street, but he won't get a job in football. He's probably like, this is my dream job. I'm in a bloody, I'm in a football team. You know, this is, probably had dreams of being a manager one day. That sounds like what the dumb aspirations of a Billy Salt would be.
