Who are today’s guests and what embarrassing sport stories kick off the episode?
Well, good morning, Tony Lyle. Good morning. And a special welcome to the man himself in person. He usually phones in from Australia as our Mad Monday Australian correspondent. The Notorious Pants Man, Joel Harrison. Good to be here. It's great to be in the studio. He does normally phone it in, you're right. Yeah. Jazzy, I mean, I've listened to the Mad Monday podcast a number of times. I particularly enjoyed your investigative journalism you did up there at Northern Base with Nathan Cleary. It was probably the most enlightening for me. Mate, that was a true story. A lot of people saying, well, it didn't happen, but a very true story. I believe it. Yeah, I think it was before Nathan Cleary had won any premierships as well.
Yes. And he was just, he was probably 21, 22 at the time. And he kind of wasn't, that famous like not that many people knew him except yeah I saw him you saw that jaw yeah when he when his jaw is swinging it must be knocking people out yeah when he's chewing his face off it'd be insane he'd be chewing his face knocking woman over it'd be outrageous I know and there was another rugby league star I don't want to say his name but he's a Kiwi rugby league star who's had a few scandals over the last few years you can probably work it out he was there and a couple hours after that I asked him for a photo as well and he's like One of my friends next to me had a pack of ciggies. And he's like, is that your mate there?
I was like, yeah, yeah. He's like, do you want a photo? I was like, yeah, yeah. He's like, can I have seven ciggies? I'm like, oh. Not even just one ciggie. He's like, seven. We were like, yeah, sure thing, mate. He's like, yeah, sweet. I'll do a photo. And his mate just goes and hands all his mates a ciggie. He's like, sweet as boys. So that was the exact same night, Northern Base 2020, I'm sure. It looks like that particular person knew that ciggies were a currency before he needed to know that ciggies were a currency. He did. He did, yeah. And I'm sure you can work that out. I've got an idea. I've got an idea of who you're talking about. I once met Jerome Kaino at a bar and I just so happened to have a, back in the day, I used to get a little player's card out of an Eater Ripples pack.
Oh, yeah. And I just so happened to have a Jerome Kaino. I used to collect them all. Had a Jerome Kaino in my pocket just randomly.
Yeah, he would have thought that.
after an Auckland's game, after a All Blacks game in the Octagon, Raba, I do believe it was. And I was like, oh, this is too good. He's waiting, he's sort of walking around. I was like, I've got to show him this card. So I was like, Jerome, you know, dapped him up. I was like, look what I got. I love that. Can you just, you just, sorry, you just painted over the dapped him up. I dapped him up, obviously. Yeah. He was like, look. I was like, randomly, this is very, very weird. Look what I got in my pocket. Showed him the card. He goes, oh, true. And he's like, I've never actually seen one. Had a look at it. And he's like, are you here with us? And mate, he's like, what are you up to? I'm just about to go in line for a beer.
He goes, no, no, come with me. Took me over behind the velvet rope and there was like a giant silver tray just covered in beers. And he was like, just grab as many as you want. I was like, And like, I was a student at the time. This is mana from heaven. And I was like, grab as many as you can carry. So I grabbed a shitload, walked back over to the boys like a conquering war hero. I was like, hey, Jerome Kaino gave me some beers. And then about two hours later, very similar to you, he came up to me and goes, hey, brother. Dabbed him up again. He goes, hey, we got to get out of here. But you know anyone who might have a couple of ciggies, do you? And, you know, I knew a couple of people, so I managed to do a similar ciggy distribution, gave him some more smokes.
He goes, oh, come back over here. He let me do another raid of the silver tray, grab another round of beers. He's like, sweet, that enough again. He cruised off with the boys, walking back to the hotel, having a couple of darts.
