Chapter 2: What shocking table manners did Ruta display?
You'll see why when you do. Big show coming up. I'm just scrolling down through here. I see nose hair. I see sharing towels. I see starting gangs. This is a big show. I see later on your lame claims to fame. Yes, lame claims to fame. It just really gets Tuesday off to a rollicking start. Couldn't be on a better day, I don't think. Lame claims to fame. That's exactly what we need on a Tuesday.
You know, Tuesdays you can often just lose a bit of momentum, but I'm glad it's the phone now.
Have you Googled Punch and John?
Chapter 3: How did childhood experiences shape table manners?
Alfonso Poncherelli was his name. Alfonso Poncherelli, you'll see why you're Ponch.
Ah, cop drama from the 70s. Yep. I'm John Baker. Jeez, that is us. Photoshop jobby there for Zoe.
Nigerian Mania, the Hodaki breakfast. Sorry, I've just done a deep dive and I know I shouldn't have got waylaid because nobody will care, but I've gone deep on to Ponch from Chips. Ponch and John, I'm very much the John Baker, you're very much the... I thought it was Alfonso Poncherello, but it's not. Racist. It's actually Llewellyn Poncherello, Eric Estrada. He's Welsh, and everyone knows that.
You can tell it just to look at him. He loomed large over the 1980s, Eric Estrada.
Chapter 4: What are the consequences of licking a knife?
He came here to Telethon in 1980. I'm going to say 1984, but it may have been 85 even, and did some clap press-ups.
I'm going to need you to make sure of that.
He did clap press-ups. Someone, some smart New Zealander out there who could well be listening right now, pledged $10 probably, or less, maybe $5, for Eric Estrada to do 10 clap press-ups. And he did them. He clapped, pressed up, press-upped. He pressed a bit up. And one of the questions here when I googled Eric Estrada, how rich is Eric Estrada? $4 million apparently.
Is that across the course of his career that's spanned 60 years now?
Apparently he still works in law enforcement. Does Eric Estrada wear a wig? Yes. Eric Estrada wears a toupee.

Chapter 5: How do different cultures view table manners?
In the 1970s, he shot to fame on the hit cop show Chips. After 30 years, he returned to the spotlight by wagging his wig. Wagging his wig. Yeah. Never heard of wig wagging before. I've never heard of poncho or chips. Chips. California Highway Patrol. C-H-P. And then they put an I in there. Right. Oh, lower case I as well. They're on motorbikes.
Is that what's going on, is it?
They're on motorbikes.
Chapter 6: What are some funny table manners stories?
Mainly filmed on the back of a trailer, so they'd cruise along on their motorbikes on the back of a fixed trailer. And their bikes never went forward or back. They always stuck right beside each other because they were fixed on a trailer. This all sounds really interesting.
I've never heard of this show, so none of these facts are interesting to you at all. I don't know. Someone out there who's watched this will have fallen off their seat this morning to learn how that was filmed, I think. I look behind the curtain of a show that nobody gets.
Ah, that's my life. That's my favourite things.
That's what I learned this morning.
My favourite things in the world.
Eric Estrada, remember him? No. You know I was here?

Chapter 7: What is the significance of lame claims to fame?
No, I don't. It wasn't real. Well, who cares? I've never heard of him. Well, now I know far more about Eric Estrada. We do look like them, to be fair. I'm sorry. Well, yeah.
to a degree if we were around in the 80s oh hey what's going on just quickly while we're talking what's going on Tanner Boyd's just re-signed you will have heard of him he plays for the Warriors now this is interesting because remember last week where they were talking about Metcalf Luke Metcalf his management had approached the club and said what's the plan going forward what's going on what's going on exactly and they played that very song they literally said they just turned up and they played that song what's going
On a tape deck and they hit play. And they went, what's going on? Because I think, and I know it turned a lot of people off Luke Metcalf, but I don't think it's his fault. I think it's his managers who are going. Because halfbacks get paid more than just about any other position in the comp.
So if you're the manager, you're going to go, hey, if he's not playing halfback here, then we can't get a bigger contract somewhere else.
Chapter 8: How do personal experiences shape our views on manners?
So we're going to, you know, if he's not playing halfback here, we want compassionate grounds and we want out.
Yeah, I suppose they don't want him to wither on the vine.
Well, they don't want him to wither on the vine because as a manager you just see dollar signs and you're like, well, I'm missing out here.
Has anyone else used that term whilst talking about Luke Metcalf and the current situation that he's withering on the vine? Don't think so. Okay, well, if anyone's listening out there, league pundits?
Yeah, well, so... You can use that. You can use that. Someone's texted and said Metcalf to PNG. Well, this is interesting because there's a couple of other contracts that are moving around. So Tanner Boyd's just re-signed through until 2029. Now, there's a bit of a logjam in the halves there. Is he our halfback? Is Luke Metcalf our halfback?
That'll be why Luke Metcalf wants to know what's going on. And the other one is that Shanoa Harris-Tavita, who was in the building yesterday, he apparently is only interested in a one-year contract for next year. Or through until... Yeah, just for next year. Because he's coming into the lucrative part of his career, isn't he? Yeah. And he's playing well. And what happens after next year?
Papua New Guinea come into the competition. Oh, you reckon? And you can get paid and not pay any tax.
And duty free. You get paid in heaps and heaps of Tom Ford fragrance, duty free. Yeah, that'll be interesting. I think as well with Chanel Harris Tevita, he's playing some good footy. Yes. And he knows, he just wants to offer himself up to other clubs. I can see him living in Sydney. Actually, I could see him living in Brisbane.
Yeah, I could see him living in Brisbane. When he took a year off to go and drink mushroom shakes on a beach in Thailand. Did he? Yeah.
