Chapter 1: What humorous banter sets the tone for this episode?
Did you want to do the potty now, Jase?
Yeah, man. Yeah, what's wrong with you, man? Nothing.
I'm good.
You don't have to do it if you're going to be in a hurrah. Did you book tickets? I'll get into it. For all you mad bastards loving the Big Show podcast, get up even closer on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, or Raw Dog It, four to seven every weekday on Radio Hauraki.
Oh, g'day, fellas. Mac Man. Hello.
You booked tickets, Jase, man? I mean, it's done, man.
For the play?
Yeah. No, not yet.
Yeah. Maybe tomorrow night. Sold out tomorrow night. Yeah, maybe. It is. But unfortunately, because my wife's keen too. Yes. But unfortunately, she's kind of busy at the moment for tonight. Yes. So maybe Saturday?

Chapter 2: What play did the hosts discuss and what were their impressions?
In the round, does that mean they're performing in the middle? That's right. Same as the other one, actually, View from the Bridge. That was more in the rectangle. It was in the rectangle. In the square. Come on, man. Andy. But it's in like an old, I don't even know what the building used to be, but maybe it's a church, Keezy. Church Keezy. Oh, Church Keezy they call it.
I'd sign up for Church Keezy.
Yeah, because I think, because I was talking to my wife about it last night, I think the silo must jump around a bit.
I think they've got this place and they haven't been there very long. Right, okay. Because I've never heard of it up on K Road. No, no. Apparently it's pretty new, but it looks like an old town hall in the middle of nowhere. Nice. Like rural New Zealand or something like that. But very weird. And then the whole place is lit, so you're lit. The same as the, not that kind of lit, Keezy.
Oh, like lights? The lights, yeah. I mean, you could be if you wanted to be. Absolutely, you could. But the same as the actors, you know? So you can see all the audience, which is a bit disconcerting.
It would be if I was acting. Yeah. I'd hate that. Yeah. One of the things, Keezy. Oh, hello. One of the bonuses when you're on stage.
You can't see anyone.
Yeah, generally speaking, you're blinded by the stage lights.
So you said that. I still remember when I did my first stand-up at Sky City Theatre and I could see you guys. Everybody's stony faces.

Chapter 3: How do the hosts feel about performing in front of comedians?
Yeah. The worst kind of audience is, especially for stand-up, is comedians, generally speaking.
But they all go and support themselves, support their mates though, right?
Yeah, yeah. Some do, yeah.
Others boo.
But at that awards night the other night, there were a big crew of them all applauding heaps.
I remember Johnny and I... I bet you guys are horrible. ...doing a show in Melbourne. Yes. And there were eight Kiwi comedians in the audience, and you'd know them well. Really? Not a tatter. Is that their fault or yours? It was a fucking good show. Apparently not. Not a tatter. They were probably on LSD. And it was so disconcerting. We were like, what the fuck is going on?
Can we name names here? No, we can't. Right, okay. And you were certain that your show was good?
It was a good show, yeah.
Was it a jolly good show?

Chapter 4: What challenges do performers face when the audience is unresponsive?
And I just said, fine, I'd just rather it in a wrap. And then I opened the wraps and I had that. And then, good news, fellas, there was leftover mince, so we're having it again tonight. Good. What do you guys buy in like half a kilo? Half a kilo of mince. I tell you, fellas. And then you pour tinned corn into it and tinned beans. Oh, no. And then you mix in like a burrito mix and some stock.
I'll stop you there.
You serve that shit up when we come over to your Joint Keys. I'll be fuming. I'm going to. Tinned corn. What, tinned corn kernels? Yeah, I'm not a fan of tinned corn. Anything pretty much? Any vegetable tinned, I'm not a fan of. Anything tinned, you're like in a spout of goose. Fuck you guys, a fussy? It's not fuss. It seems like it. I don't mind a kidney bean that's tinned. Well, that's right.
I mean, I don't think I've had a kidney bean any other way. No.
Could I say that? You can buy them dry, of course, and then moisturise them yourself.
Moisten them. Yes. Moisten those beans.
Fellas, another fascinating...
thing today happened it's not really that fascinating but it's fascinating to me in the city right outside my apartment um now i live next to a very actually maybe i'll save this for the show save it for the show yeah okay i'll keep your powder dry man and your beans wet said that to my daughter today that very phrase you said keep your beans wet no i said keep your powder dry all right
Good bit of fatherly advice there. What was she about to talk about something on her podcast? She was about to fire off a cannon. She's fuming. I'll just say that much. At who? I'm not going to say any more than that. Is it radio content? No.

Chapter 5: What funny anecdotes do the hosts share about past performances?
She loves it. No. Which daughter is it? Your youngest? No. I'm not going to even specify what daughter it is.
Oh, wow. You've got a one in eight chance here. Listen to the big show.
One in 15, KZ.
4 till 7 every weekday. And if you want to hear Jase's amazing What Happened Outside His House thing, listen to the Best Of podcast.
It's more a podcast chat, which I'll do in another podcast. You've had a shocker. The one you just teased for the radio show. Yeah, I know, but I realise that it's going to be quite long and it's actually not that interesting. Right.
It's perfect for the podcast then.
Just the usual.
