LIVE
Sound check, sound check.
One, two, one, two.
Louder.
How come the gain's not that high?
Maybe the volume dropped.
Fuck around with the volume button.
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello.
How did it fuck around with the volume button?
Hey, Jax, look, he won't even twitch.
Jax, that can hear that.
He can probably hear the car.
Yeah, you know, oh, we, we.
Yeah, we're on.
Okay.
You know, he, my street, right?
When you turn into it's uphill.
He can tell her car coming from up the top.
Yeah, the cats do the same thing with Mary.
They know.
Fuck, how the fuck does a cat, like a dog or a cat,
know you're a street away and know you're on your way?
They're here, I don't know.
I reckon the cats are teary.
Dogs smell, but they can't smell.
Hang on, they can't smell a fricking,
a murk coming from up the road.
Maybe they can smell a fucking murk.
You know, if he jumps in the car, you can't get him out.
He's ready to go.
No, just say you were going shopping,
you're gonna leave the dog at home.
Right, and he accidentally gets out of the house
and gets in the car, forget about.
He's gonna pretend you're staying at a home.
For him to get out of the car.
And then it takes about half an hour.
Oh fuck, it's worse than a kid.
Yeah, he's bad.
And now, look at him now, he's just,
Oh no, he's at the door waiting,
because his mother left.
And he lost his power.
It's only good after a good evening,
you're listening to the All Talk Car Pat podcast,
Vet Pet's Edition.
That's right, I was gonna say Christmas Edition.
Well, it is our Christmas show.
Merry Christmas.
And everyone turned up, just Tom and I.
No, I'm audience.
Come on, we've got Jackson here.
Yeah, and Paul's a good friend.
No security, no live audience, everyone's on holidays.
You know what I'm supposed to,
he was given time off at Christmas
because he's owed like 10 billion sick days,
or holiday, and then they call him back to work.
He said he was working over.
He didn't even get a chance to go on a holiday,
and he's working.
That's right, he'll go next year to Vegas.
I've been teasing him, he's going.
He's coming, he's coming.
He's coming.
So yeah, Pet Edition.
So I've got cats, you've got dogs.
Dogs.
Minus one.
Yes, yes.
Poor thing, we had to put one down, yeah.
But I mean, I'm not a big fan of animals,
and we've got the two cats.
And it's, sorry, mate.
Jackson, come here.
They're smart creatures.
I mean, the cats, they're bloody moody,
but when they want to come for affection,
or when they, one of ours.
What, eat?
No, I don't even eat.
Did you know if you died in your house,
and you had cats, the cat would eat you?
The cat would eat me, if I died.
Yeah.
Why?
Because that's a cat.
Okay.
Really, did you know that?
No?
Yeah.
I'm gonna die.
The cats are gonna die before me.
Yeah, I know, but if you were to die with a cat in your house,
just say, you died, the cat's locked in there,
the cat will actually end up eating you.
The reason why I love the cat,
I just stare at them the way their body moves.
They're, look, they've been described by ability.
They're like hunting machines.
Wait, wait, wait, no.
See, I look at it differently to you.
What, the cats?
Because you do call cats pussies.
Yeah, I know, but they're lions.
They're baby lions.
I look at them like baby lions.
I look at the way they walk,
and they remind me of-
Did you get that one?
Yeah, I do.
Okay, that's interesting.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But they look like baby lions.
They walk around the house, and-
And then when I-
They're territory.
Yeah, but then I open the door.
They're indoor cats.
When I open the door, the birds are there.
They get into attack mode,
and they make bird noises in their mouths,
in their tails, like-
They're quick, aye.
They're quick.
And to get them out of our room,
because Mary loses it when they go in our room,
I put cat TV on YouTube.
Well, it's got a goldfish from there.
No, it's got a camera on birds,
on a branch, and they put seeds,
and the cats run from it wherever they are.
The cats have a special TV.
Yeah, they do.
They do.
I thought cats and dogs can't see TV
because it's not three-dimensional.
So the cat will strike the TV,
and you make the ding, the ding.
But then what they want to do is
they want to go from behind.
So they go behind the TV, thinking the branch is there,
and they come back a bit confused.
Animals could see TV screens.
Fuck the cats do.
Or do they see black and white?
I don't know.
I don't know.
The cats do.
And then they've got birds,
and they have one with mice,
and they'll all fucking attack in the TV,
and my wife goes,
they're going to scratch the TV,
stop the mice, just leave the birds,
and the squirrels don't give a shit.
Like squirrels sometimes.
They're probably American jannels.
But dogs, I've never got into dogs.
Look what we're talking about, animals.
I'd rather talk about Joe Rogan.
Because I noticed him the other day,
because I was still watching his shows.
He, I could see he had his eye on a contestant.
Yeah, for sure.
So I really want to know if he ever, you know,
banged on a mic.
For sure, for sure.
You know what, also I've been watching,
Christmas break and that.
Love is blind.
It's been out, there's like eight seasons of it.
Love is blind.
So, you know how we love married at first sight?
Yeah.
The married at first sight is just like,
it's a fucking riot, right?
It's just, it's just, it's designed for disaster.
Where love is blind.
You, the guys live with the guys.
They've got a snooker table on that.
The girls live with the girls.
And this, they've got pods.
So you walk in our room and it's like a glass screen
dividing the two rooms.
Have you ever root?
No, no, no.
You talk to each other.
What's that?
And you propose.
Yeah.
But you connect without seeing them.
So love is blind.
So you don't get carried away with the looks.
Do you have to pay them?
No, no, no.
So if you propose and the girl says yes,
and sometimes a girl proposes too.
So then you meet the next day for the first time.
And you get married with, you get married with in four weeks.
Pete, Pete, sorry to tell you.
That's the oldest profession in the world.
Love is blind.
Yeah.
But usually dump about other than how much it is,
but a couple of hundred dollars.
And you're a love for at least an hour.
Yeah, but you can see them.
That's not like a glory hole.
Yeah, but it's blind when you're walking in there.
No, true.
You walk in blind.
Yeah, but you're still blind.
Yeah.
And you're blind all the way.
They can say no money.
Not that that happens in Vegas.
So yeah, so they fall in love before they see each other.
So they're trying to take the looks of them and out.
And it's had a, so out of all the couple,
out of all the people, five couples proposed.
So not all of them get to the next round.
How long did it last?
And two out of the five are still together
after seven years, only, only saw season one.
And like there's another seven seasons.
What show did you say before in Australia?
Love at first sight?
Love at first sight.
Married at first sight.
Married at first, yeah.
Well, there's only one couple originally,
that cricket player.
Yeah, yeah, the cricket player.
And they've even had kids in a lot.
Yeah, they've got kids.
With that redhead from memory.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like that show.
No, I don't know.
But it's a disaster, it's a design.
But because they put you together.
You want more action?
This show, there's no host.
You talk, you interact.
I don't know how I'll get on that.
So, what, talking?
Especially if I have a fight, I try and,
how do you say it?
Make it the next fight, extend longer than the next one.
Yeah, but you won't go to the pod with that girl again.
Like what's the point in, if you fight,
they're not going to see you or we'll talk to you again.
Is it like you don't go back to her?
No.
I try to have my wife, it doesn't work.
I don't say anything.
So, Christmas break.
Yes.
Holidays.
So you once got away with your daughter.
I once got away.
And you look so excited.
I'm happy as.
I'm excited.
I never got away with him anyway.
Mine canceled her trip this weekend.
Oh, really?
I was just feeling, yeah.
Because she didn't realize it's going to be
like a health retreat.
They're going to go walks and stuff.
All right.
And her, her back at the moment is stuff from work.
I was trying to physio.
Not because of me.
And, and, and she goes, oh, she got her money back.
So she didn't realize it was like a health retreat.
She thought, I've got to resolve for three days.
I go, no, man.
No.
Don't worry.
No, next year at Vegas, don't worry.
I'll make sure, I'll show our health retreat there.
Yeah, watch trip.
Yeah.
I'll show it.
She's talking about it already.
I'm going to get us plastered.
She was already talking about it.
Yeah.
But she didn't, she went on.
She goes, she's not a big fan of the gambling.
That's okay.
We'll take you back.
Yeah.
Sorry, but I think she had a better time
with me and Rick last time.
Yeah.
But she was freaking out when you were the machine next to us.
You know, you're stopping the reels
and you got 800, you didn't take it.
She got a bit.
Yeah.
But man, she enjoyed the part when we went to the old Vegas.
Yeah.
I mean, Rick enjoyed it too.
But Jane gave us a curfew of two and a half hours.
She called security a gentleman.
Did she?
So she'll be happy for the next year.
Yes, babe.
Yes, babe.
What?
And we're throwing in Disneyland.
Yeah.
I really want to go.
My son's fucking busting my balls to come again.
I told him he can't come.
Or he can stay at home with Mary.
No.
Well, Mary will come out with me.
Oh, okay. Fair enough.
I like Mary.
She can be the mum.
Because there's no Rick.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, he's going to have to save up and poor Harry's
doing double shifts.
He's done it.
Yeah.
No.
Bloody.
Not a sprint.
They went crazy the first two to three hours.
That's right.
Not a sprint.
No, they didn't.
And then we were going out towards the end
and they were just going bad early.
Not bad, yeah.
Now, where we stayed last year,
shout out to what's it called?
We had the Vedara.
Vedara, is it?
Yeah, we booked the Vedara.
Mate, I'm telling you,
I can't explain the fit.
Because remember, I was wings only, man.
I know, I know.
So the wings.
But now, after that last night
when you were gambling all night,
that is because I found out.
Because walking around, you know what?
Actually walking around with Tristan,
made me see everything that's here at night time.
Yeah.
You've got the secret bars.
Like a guy, you get a haircut there
and he goes to sleep and I go, no, it's not.
At the Cosmo.
We didn't even get to the bar.
We didn't go to the Bellagio.
That's the other walkway.
Yeah.
Where do I go for breakfast?
Cosmo.
Mate, younger generate.
Like, it was happy.
Yeah, Cosmo is pumping.
And then you've got Bellagio and Arya,
which is an older, nicer crowd.
Not as pompous as Wings, but still just as nice.
Wings is a good view or whatever,
especially Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
The clubs are big.
Right, yeah.
And there's a lot of younger looking women,
you know, half dressed, half naked,
if you want to call it.
Right, but the other one.
Just to go dancing.
Yeah.
But the other one, remember the last night, mate?
A nice thing.
It was, the casino was there, but opposite the bars.
The new life was interconnected with the casino.
Without, without.
Have enough of that.
Go and have a drink.
Go and come back.
And it wasn't taken over from the other one.
So Wings, you've got the fine dining,
but in a different part of the casino,
you've got to walk it.
It's a freaking long walk.
Where Cosmo, I mean, they had a section.
You didn't see the, where the egg slot was,
or that, all those restaurants.
Yeah, no, we don't.
Up there, but all the bars.
They had a secret bar there too.
I know, but all the bars and all the casino is all together.
You don't have to walk for miles.
Pete, I enjoyed it.
Remember at the beginning, I wasn't too sure,
because I had the thing in my head,
wake up at four o'clock in the morning,
put a pair of pants on, go now,
it says have a hamburger, have a pun.
Where here, it's just walk out and walk out, you know?
Yeah, you're there.
You're there, rain, hail, shine.
So yeah, that's so.
I was going to talk about highlight to the year.
Vegas is our grand final.
That's our, we always talk about it.
We talk about it when we come back.
We talk about it for next year already.
So Vegas is a highlight,
but I think my highlight, look,
highlight for you,
the way you've taken your management seriously
with the racing.
Yes, we've got it here, right?
Yeah, so this year.
I'm getting it ready for the six hour.
Yeah, so this year, your attitude,
before it was all party, party,
we were staying, we were eating now all of a sudden.
Like I said, it was the one question.
I go to Zach, who's it about?
You or the team?
He goes, all I want to do is win.
Yeah.
And then something in my head just went, click.
It's a team effort.
Now it's just to win.
And I think he realized that,
I'll tell you, we're walking out to the car
and he goes, oh, how come there's no new tire on there?
Yeah, we knew.
And I go to him, don't you worry about it.
We put three new tires, one old one,
because he was only going to do a certain amount of lap.
This is a front lift that was coughing a little bit.
Front lift, blow up.
And then when he came in, Tom took over,
brand new tire went on there, went out,
but then the turbo is melted and we spat the blade.
My biggest highlight of the year was last Wednesday.
You want to know?
Right at the end of the year.
Is there another place over there?
Mustangs registered.
Okay.
Okay, I was going to talk about that.
Cause I sent you a photo last week, you didn't reply.
What did you send me?
About the, the summon ads car was ready.
The HSV mustang.
Yeah, yes, yes.
No, but the actual Mustangs registered.
Oh yeah, but it's a go to summon ads?
No, because we've got no wheels.
You missed it.
Next year.
So cause I went last week and picked up the HSV,
it's for 89.
So I went and picked up old faithful and aircon works.
Yes.
It's back to the original gearbox, the automatic.
And you know what?
The brakes, the revit, it's like a 90s style brakes.
They're very, you used to, like, you don't realise
how much cars have developed over the last 20 years.
You touch, you touch any, first of all, any car,
like especially the EVs, not to a hundred is not even a timing
where you can do it in 3.8, but that used to be
not even super cars could do it 20 years ago.
Ferrari's couldn't do under 30 or so years.
20 years?
20 years.
So you got late 90s.
So we're 20, 25, right?
So 2005, make it 25 years.
You got late 90s.
Reason why I'm working on my head, okay.
Before you're building, say a bigger car.
Right, we're talking local?
Hold it for?
It doesn't matter.
You're building, say, a Ford Capri, right?
You're building that and you want to go bigger brakes
before it was like go to an engineer
or someone who could do a mod and you'd pick, say,
like a different car's caliper and put it on.
Make sure it fits.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
You'd get everything machined up now.
You don't have to do that.
You just ring and just get, you know,
a package sent to you with full conversion kit.
But it's materials.
And the materials they use.
Everything's changed.
It's easier but harder.
Braking capacity.
So you go to any normal car and you hit the brakes,
you're going to outbreak a performance car
from 25 years ago.
Yeah, for sure.
They just veered in the late 90s,
ain't going to break like a Camry now.
A Camry would be in a drag now.
Pete, you pull up at satellites,
you're the old man sitting next to you
with a Dossmans cap on in his C63,
idling at the satellites purring.
Right, then you get this guy come down in his terrain.
No air con, no nothing, sweating his balls off.
The traction control.
Lights change and that guy in the C63
is at the next set of lights waiting for you.
With air con on and he's got his Spotify.
Yeah, he hasn't sweated at all.
Talking to his wife till he's coming out for dinner.
And the Tirana.
Yeah, he's changed six gears or four gears,
sweating to death and he's just trying to pull up.
Just to keep, yeah, and pull up.
It's, and then what's to say the next 20 years?
I mean, now that we've got hybrid and EVs,
that that instant torque from an EV-powered car
or a battery-powered car, imagine what's going to happen.
Where does it stop?
Now you're saying that.
I remember four weeks ago,
we went to pick up a car from Volvo at Paramount.
And opposite, there's a new brand.
Deepow, Zeepo.
Maybe, I'm not, Zeepo.
Zeepo, no you haven't.
In the showroom, there's a guy putting together
a flying car.
Yeah, one of the electric car companies
got a flying car.
Right, because I had a show and they're putting together
and I just stopped and thought to myself,
give it 10, 20, like.
You think you're going to have a flying car
in the next 10 to 20 years?
No.
I mean, okay, let's go back a step.
Drones are now everywhere.
Yeah.
10 years ago, a drone was new, expensive, and it would break.
So all of a sudden, you got a lot of drones.
Well, look, okay, again, our Vegas trip, LA.
Yep, they had those fricking things
on the sidewalk to living food.
Oh, the little, like a dog box.
Yeah, robots.
Delivering food.
It looked like a little dog on wheels.
Yeah, like.
And Waymo.
That's Waymo.
The taxi with no.
Oh yeah, remember we were sitting at the rest of the way
for it to take off.
Yeah, we were sitting there for 20 minutes parked
like it was from a sweetie.
We didn't even notice the leaf.
And then it left, yeah.
Weird.
So yeah, like, if you've been there for 20 years.
I don't know, the parking spot, I hang on.
How did I know it wasn't in our parking?
I don't know.
That's Bookie.
Who are they, Bookie?
I don't know, I don't know.
So who's to say, yeah, in 20 years time,
how much further we're going to go?
It's the pace of change is just,
but all car companies, it's just not one.
Well, you know, Tesla just let the cars self-drive here.
Yeah, that's happened this year.
That's another highlight.
You know what I mean?
And I think it fucked up the hook turning Melbourne.
Yeah, that stuffed them up a lot.
It didn't, but then no human knows that at all.
No, that's right.
But like that's, have you been in one here?
No, not self-driving.
Hey, it would want to be,
Ari, it would want to be, like, I don't know,
because what was I in the other day?
You know, how you can let go for a little bit.
And it got confused at, where were we?
The lines veered off, but there was no center lines.
And it got confused.
I didn't know which one to do.
Yeah.
That happens a lot at the M5,
I have a pass is where it opens up.
Yeah, that's it.
Must got airport, go to the airport.
It opens up.
Gardeners road, airport.
And it doesn't know what to do.
It gets confused.
Yeah, yeah.
We're moving forward and explaining a hook turn.
Our mates, Todd and Paul, everyday driver,
try to explain to them a hook turn.
They were like, what, what are you doing?
I've got, what do you think's the most,
what, like thinking of the whole range,
what's your most comfortable car?
You got to freak out when I say,
what do you think's the most comfortable car?
Cause I fall asleep in cars now, right?
Yeah, like as in sitting in a car,
driving or cause I fall asleep driving too now.
Yeah, me too.
But the cast is by itself.
What, what car badge do you think the whole range
is more comfortable than anything else?
Like, you can't say price or we're not saying Royce.
No, you can't say, how can I say like,
I've got answers.
Like an S car smirk with like the basic,
what is it?
What do you think?
The most comfortable car that I drove this year
was the X-Pen.
The seats in that, the X-Pen.
I'm blushing.
Yeah, that's the joke.
The seats in that were so comfortable.
Really?
And the M5, the M5, the five series I've got now,
they're comfortable, but they're not,
it's not lounge comfortable.
You got to freak out.
It's comfortable, but not lounge comfortable.
It's hard, it's a hard seat,
but you're not sinking in it.
Subaru.
Yeah?
Which Subaru did you get into?
Just all of them.
Majority of them.
Like that's what I meant.
Like majority, not a special class of car,
but the Subaru has the most comfortable seats.
I haven't been, everyone says Volvo.
I've been to Volvo.
Now we're getting them.
Now we started doing Volvo.
A lot of years.
Apparently Volvo seats have been on your seats.
Subaru.
But the X-Pen was very comfortable,
lounge comfortable, where the BMW is more...
Mark, I'm telling you, the Subaru, firm, soft,
and just nestled in.
Like, I don't know.
Better than the AMG, the S63,
where you had the business class seat.
Yeah, better.
Better than that.
I'm telling you to put your sleeve.
That the Subaru is just comfortable.
I don't know why.
It's not hard, like it's not...
I think because the driver, the owner is boring
and you just fell asleep.
No, but I fell asleep driving as well, all passenger.
I fell asleep the other day over at the set of lights
and I was with someone.
And I go, watch, wink me.
I had to wait until the guy in the back started beeping his horn.
I was driving.
Did they know you fell asleep?
Your passenger, they know you fell asleep?
Afterwards, we were like, oh my God.
And like the other car in front got a fair distance away
for the car in the back.
That's bad.
I don't know.
Were you tired or...
No, but it's happened to me a lot lately.
You could be careful.
Is that covered from experience?
No.
Oh, okay.
No, like, oh, no, I'll sleep better now.
I'm okay.
Since I've had separate room policy, it's been the best.
Christmas, next year.
What do you think?
What are you looking forward to?
2026, year of the horse.
Oh, the races.
For those who are in Chinese horoscopes.
Year of the horse.
Year of the horse.
Apparently, horse is like good in moving forward,
where this year was a year of the snake shedding.
Oh, I'm so glad I said, you know.
You don't fucking fall asleep.
Yeah, no.
No, because you know what?
Cause now I'm in holiday mode at home.
I sit on the shitter and look at TikTok
till about two, three o'clock in the morning.
Last time, I think it was two o'clock.
You went to the toilet at nine o'clock
and you got out at two in the morning.
No, I go about 11 o'clock and I get out at about two.
Are you fucking serious?
You sit at the toilet for three hours.
Yeah, I have a shower as well.
Oh, okay.
But that's how long they sit there.
Shit, literally.
Yeah.
I can't help it.
And if it's boring TikTok, I'm on there longer.
Cause I'm scrolling until I find something good.
Well, I've been talking about my new TikTok page,
where everyone's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I'm not gonna talk about it yet.
Why?
I think I've told you, haven't I?
No.
Okay, Ross is in, Hal's in.
We're gonna write some scripts.
Oh.
I'm not gonna say it.
No, don't, wait.
We'll do that in the new year.
Might never mean you gotta scroll for an extra hour
to find it.
Yeah, no, no.
It'll pop up straight away on your algorithm.
Why?
Cause it's me.
I've really-
I don't know, maybe cause I'm in your phone.
But now that we've talked about it,
come up that was on there.
Our phones are spying on us, Pete.
I know, and Alexa, what about Alexa?
You told her to shut up and she stopped straight away.
Hi, Alexa.
You know what you just done now?
You stuffed up all the listeners.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
They'll talk to us.
Oh, is there any highlights this year?
The roof got up?
Yes.
Yeah, it's the roof's got up.
It's gonna happen.
It's gonna happen.
There are more bays.
I don't know.
Racing.
Mustang.
We're six hour in a big way.
We're dedicating from now to six hour.
We want to do very well in the six hour.
The car's here.
And what's gonna happen with the Mustang?
What's the plan with the Mustang?
Find a set of wheels for it, drive it,
and then put it away because I hate it.
I hate that car.
My son's got his hells, so he's gonna want a car.
So I want to see what he wants to build it.
An A-class?
He'll get one of them at the beginning.
Now, go to what kind of car you want?
No, he doesn't know.
He just follows everyone.
Electric bike.
No, I can see it.
I want a VL.
What?
You watch.
What's going to do with the VL?
I don't know.
Because he follows everyone.
What are you going to do with the VL?
I'm not gonna build it for you.
You can pick anything you want.
Look, I still thought I had two more cars left in me.
I wanted to do a Corvette, like a late 57, 58,
twin light one.
They're 57, 58, oh, anyway.
And a Thunderbird.
The longer jewel windows.
The jewel glides in the front.
Yeah.
I wanted to do one of them,
and I wanted to do a Thunderbird.
Because if there was a God in heaven,
he drove a Silver Thunderbird.
You like the Thunderbirds?
Yeah, the small ones, the old 50s.
Yeah, they're 50s.
Yeah, the small ones.
There's a big debate with the round window on the side.
Yeah, yes, that's the one.
I don't mind them.
I'm not a massive fan, but you know,
there's that many.
You don't see them anymore.
That's right.
Even at sea, man, there's no Thunderbird.
They're not.
There's only two that I know are the path.
There's one on Parameter Road and a panel shop,
a black one, and there was a blue one
at a car yard on Parameter Road as well,
like tucked away in the corner.
Why don't you get one of the 90s ones?
The big ones.
The ones I did at the retro, you know,
they did it, it was on Soprano,
it was one of Anthony's girlfriend had one.
They big?
No, it was like a coupe.
Oh, no.
I don't know.
It's like a retro style, not his version.
I don't know.
They didn't sell well.
I've had enough of cars.
Says the person who fixes them for a living.
Yeah, I know, that's the problem.
That's why I've had enough of them.
Darn dusted, that's it.
Right?
As long as it's got air conditioning, power steering,
we don't care.
All cars don't have power steering
and air conditioning and traction control.
Yeah, but we don't care about that.
As long as air conditioning and power steering.
Air conditioning and auto lights,
except they don't work in Vegas,
so it's so funny.
Yeah, see?
It's so funny.
It's something you learn.
Well, there you go.
Our little Christmas show.
Christmas special.
Christmas special.
But we'll do another one.
We're not going away.
Summonettes.
So, oh yeah, we've got summonettes coming up.
Summonettes.
Yes, are you going to come at all?
Yeah, I'll probably come for a day.
We'll take, bring the little mic.
Got, when are we leaving?
Thursday.
Yeah, you'll go now.
Thursday, next year, must have.
Next year.
So you missed out this year.
Just.
When my brother said drive the HSV to the,
I'm like, what's going on here?
I'll go, as the time goes.
I came close, I came close.
It's at Kansas now.
Yeah.
Like just trying to, you know,
but I'm going to get wheels.
It's the hardest thing.
Never built a car without wheels.
What about the ute?
Where's the ute?
In the back.
They're working on it.
No, I haven't touched nothing.
I set the wheels to get re-done.
Yeah.
And they still got them.
That's got to go up in value.
Yeah.
Might have to pay a couple of gains tax.
Well, Merry Christmas to everyone that listens.
Yes, Merry Christmas.
I hope you enjoy our little.
Get together.
Band town, little show.
Little, little fun things that we do.
Next year, the studio should be up and right.
Keep talking about the studio.
Just got to get the table.
Table, and then that's it.
We hook everything up.
Yeah, I will.
So sound quality is going to go through the roof.
I've got about the table.
We're going to get guests.
Can't you Google table, find a table?
I'll find your table.
I showed the table I wanted.
I showed the studio audience what table I wanted.
Yeah, well, fuck, show me pictures.
I'll find it.
I'll show you.
It's all real nice.
It's a company, the Goldcast that makes it.
Show me the thing and I'll get it.
I'll show you.
I've got in there a pallet.
If you notice, there's water.
We've got a pallet of water delivered.
And look, it's all in the off-boarder there,
water there, water in there.
Is that from Mr. Licka?
No.
Mr. Water.
I didn't want to ask him.
Forget Mr. Water.
No, Mr. Licka.
I don't have to visit him over the holidays
because he's got some unique brands.
Has he?
Yeah, we've got the blueberry vodka
that we bought for the audience.
That's important.
You can't buy it.
These are a few.
Absolute.
Yeah, there's a lot of them.
It's important.
It's an absolute.
Yeah, the purple one.
And then I want to get this drink from Greco.
We're drinking some Italian,
like Amaretto, it was like a hazelnut liqueur,
but it wasn't.
And I said, mate, there's a Greek one, a cinnamon one.
And the guy was drinking with you, he goes,
oh, I'll get it.
So I'm gonna go,
Tim, what it is, and I'll get it from him with that.
Dendurah.
It's a dendurah.
Dendurah.
Like I've heard of that.
Yeah, it's a drink from our region.
It's a cinnamon liqueur, if you know cinnamon.
But last year, I liked cinnamon.
You probably like it, it's sweet.
No, you don't like it,
but it's not like fireball hot cinnamon.
I've had that.
I've had that.
Yeah, I've had that in America.
Yeah, no, this is sweet.
I saw an ad for the peanut butter scotch,
peanut butter whiskey.
You know, we saw it in Vegas, it's here now.
Is it?
Yeah.
I show my wife, she goes, really?
Southern comfort, if Christmas presents,
full Southern comfort.
Oh, no, they've all been flooding in.
I have a Canadian club, I've had a few.
I've got Southern comfort around.
I've got an Aston Martin limited edition,
Glen Phoenix scotch.
I did, sir.
Yeah, with a stroll and there.
I don't know, it's just like a black label,
Southern comfort, tastes like Johnny Walker.
It doesn't taste like Southern comfort.
I can't handle it.
Black label, Southern comfort, is there a level up?
Yeah, there's more levels up.
Yeah.
And it tastes like scotch, scotch, not Southern comfort.
And you know, Southern comfort,
they bottle that here in Australia too, some of them.
Under license.
Yeah, and they're bottling it here,
and that was stronger than the Southern comfort one.
Because that's like some of the beer here,
like Peronis and that, some of them are bottled here.
Yeah, well that was, it was made, and it was stronger here,
and when you held them up to the light,
one was darker than the other.
Oh wow, really?
I should have kept that bottom, but I drank it, you know?
You drank it, you can't help yourself with the ice machine.
That's right, Vegas this year,
no sunup gets smashed with the ice machine,
being ice like.
And then you're gonna say on Wednesday,
you know, I've run out of money,
where before it was like, fuck, I've got money this year.
And I sent you the link about in and out to see that.
Yeah, what's the suit?
They've tried to hook it up here.
So, yeah, the company in Brisbane's got the rights,
have done nothing with it,
but I looked at some other companies,
and I'm mentioning names that are available.
Did, sir.
So, if you want to, if you're sick of cars.
No, that's, you know, like.
We'll have to talk off here.
Yeah.
Rate us, review us,
everyone have a good Christmas new year,
and we're probably, what's good of a show?
No, we're not going away,
it's not gonna be a good show.
Ross is gonna be around,
so we'll do a show during the break, and.
At the cookie factory, so we can have cookies.
Yeah, we'll go there, we'll switch it on and start eating.
So, everyone enjoy their Christmas,
and have a safe one.
Oh, wait, wait, we'll see if the new machine can wrap me.
You're gonna get wrapped?
Yeah.
Well, they got a new machine in there,
that wraps things, it puts it away.
We'll come down the belt and see what happens.
Oh, no, nothing,
you're just gonna get the machine pouring food
in your stomach and your mouth.
Oh, mate, I love that.
Look at that.
Oh, no, that's getting big.
Enjoy Christmas, and have a happy new year.
Merry Christmas.
Bye for now.
Bye.
Look at these guys.
I don't know what.
That's a white t-shirt too.
Mate, I'm looking forward to the lobsters at that place again.
Golden Steer.
Golden Steer.
I've already done my list,
and I've already ticked off which nights we booked.
Yeah, Golden Steer, the same, two days after we're there.
Yeah, Tuesday, yeah, it's all sorted, all sorted.
And now buffet breakfast.
That's all sorted.
So the lemonade's large.
Yeah, it's all.
Just a late snack in the afternoon.
