We're going to put our glad rags on and we'll be getting along there and hopefully walking away with a silverware, fellas.
Yeah, well, I mean, I've been doing this a long time, and I've never won anything, and that's just an outrage as far as I'm concerned.
Well, I've been doing this a long time, and I don't think I've been nominated for anything.

Yeah.
Is that what the issue is?
A little bit of that, yeah, for sure.
Okay, I'll lose the high-vis.
Now, fellas, just in regards to the awards, how do you fancy our chances?
Well, we're going to get into it, aren't we? Yeah. Look, the whole show today, traditionally you'd ask me what's on the show today.

Yes. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, totes, totes. We better get that one.
Who are we up against? Oh, I wouldn't be able to tell you, man.
Okay.
Because no one else has done anything else that I can, you know?
Yeah.
Like the goat, that's the one, man. Yeah. Totes. That's the biggie.
It's the greatest of all time.
Yes. Best comedy podcast, The Hodaki Big Show. Oh! Now you're talking. Now you're talking. Yeah, well, that's the one you want. That's a biggie. We're up against some heavy hitters in that one, though, fellas, so I'm not confident.

Chapter 4: What are the nominees for the Best Comedy Podcast?
We're doing that now as we speak.
Do we care about having a finalist nomination for digital content producer? Dylan, Dilly, Big Dilly, who works in the office there. Do we care about him being nominated?
It's not us.
Yeah, it's really us.
He's very young. He's very young. He's got plenty of time. Yeah, his whole life's in front of him.
So if he wins, are we booing him or clapping? No, we're not booing him. We'll be happy for him, but, you know, it's not important to us. Yeah, right, okay. But, I mean, how do we improve our chances here?
Well, we could have weekly meetings and go through our content plan and figure out what we're doing wrong.
I mean in the short term. I mean, it's tonight.
Well, we could call up the other people.

Chapter 5: What practice do they plan for their acceptance speeches?
He's splashed out. He's got himself a new car. And I've got to say, it's better than I could possibly have imagined.
Wow, because you got a new car, wasn't it, last year for your wife? I did. She got a new EV.
I didn't get it for my wife, Keezy. She's perfectly capable of getting it herself. She's got her own job, et cetera, et cetera. Didn't you do all the admin on that? No, she does all the admin on that sort of thing. Because I sort of find myself drifting off because I don't care. So she did all that, and she's got that car. The only time it's sort of, and it's an electric car, Keith. Yeah.
Fully electric. Our timing was pretty good, given the state of things. Yes. We are saving a lot of money. The only time it seems to be my car is when we go to use it, and it's got 3% battery left, and I have to be the one to take it down to the servo to charge it up. So is this a bone to pick? And sit in the car for half an hour while it charges up.
yeah it's quite the weird thing about it is it's kind of like a lawn mowing situation jace yes where you pretend you don't like mowing the lawn so it feels like you're contributing something to the house against your will but really you love it because you get half an hour to yourself scrolling through the reels baby yeah well i was gonna say it's like a half hour time out for yourself it is a little coffee maybe a sausage roll it's exactly what i do i get myself a
Pie and one of those little chickeny, tendery bastards. Oh, nice. Anyway, I've now also got a brand new car as well, so I'm feeling pretty spesh. Wow, sweet. So did you go for a second EV? I went for a new Teeter, a new Teeter, which is bloody good on the gas. So it's like having an EV. A Nissan Teeter again. Nissan Teeter. Similar to your old one. Same one.
Well, similar, yeah, similar, but different because it's got the different engine in it.
So we went ahead and we did that. So the breaking news is that the new engine you said you were putting in your teeter has now been put in your teeter.
And it works, but it works because you never know, do you? Well, it's all been plumbed in. It's sort of like a lung transplant, a heart transplant. That's more like it because the engine key is the beating heart of the car.

Chapter 6: What breaking news does Mike share during the show?
It's the Untold series. I just ended up searching Untold and then sort of powering through a whole heap of them. This one was the story of Johnny Football. Johnny Manziel. Yeah, very good.
Very good. Because he was touted for greatness.
He was. He was Te Aroha for Greatness. So this is a young quarterback, Koiti J, over there in the US of A. Yes. And he's a pretty special player. He went to a sort of a highly disciplined sort of, in New Zealand we would call it a college. Over there it's a high school. Then out the back of that he went into a university and took his team on his shoulders. To glory, really.
They didn't win titles, but he won the Heisman Trophy, which is he was the only player ever to win that as a freshman, which is the best player in the whole division, in the whole competition. And it's pretty interesting stuff because he starts feeling pretty entitled pretty quick. And so he should, because in those days, and I feel like it might have changed in the last year or two,
College players aren't allowed to earn any money. Now, this particular university made something in the vicinity of, I think I'm right here, of $750 million off the back of him selling his jersey, his jersey number. Wow. The donations that went to the college as a result of how well they did, all this sort of stuff. The players don't get one cent of it. Wow.
They're playing in front of 100,000 people every single week.
Millions watching.
It's modern slavery. It's a disgrace. It's disgusting. So he decides, well, he doesn't like that. So he goes out and starts doing signing sessions. And before you know it, he's flying in private jets. He's getting himself in all sorts of trouble because he's...
making all this money and then they just came up him and his best mate with a story that he was never signing anything that anything that was there because they came up with a fake signature so when people see it they go oh that's not my signature and he said the reason why he had all this money was because his family were rich they come from an oil which was a complete lie right so he got let off

Chapter 7: What humorous moments arise during the discussion about Reburger?
I have vowed to do the stairs five times on that day. Oh, cool. Okay, we'll hold you to that.
What happens if you don't do it? Oh, you know, it's not really... Why don't we just make it that you have to do the bungee off the Sky Tower if you don't do five times up the stairs?
Well, how about this? Even just once. You just have to go up once. Up the stairs once? Yep, to the top. I'll tell you what, Jase.
I'll do it with you.
That kind of changes it a bit for me if we're going to do that. What do you mean? Well, my training is specifically around five times. No, just do it once. Oh, look, let's just flag it. I mean, not the day in lieu, just the whole stair thing. But it's for charity. We've worked really hard on this. Yeah, but let's focus on the charity. I don't want to sideline it.
What about this? Jase runs up. You can just walk up the stairs to the top from the bottom, and we raise donations for bowel cancer.
What a great idea, man. What a great idea.
Like $10,000 per step. No, just anything, really. Even if it was for $100, wouldn't that be worth it?
Yeah.
