[2:54] Speaker 3: and then into the podcast itself.
[2:57] Speaker 5: I must say, I don't know what we're going to
[2:58] Speaker 5: speak to him about.
[2:59] Speaker 1: Couple things we can do here, boys, just on the
[3:01] Speaker 1: drive up to disturb you.
[3:03] Speaker 4: We can do a left hand turn a powder works road,
[3:05] Speaker 4: or we can go further through the Monoval road.
[3:07] Speaker 1: What do you reckon?
[3:08] Speaker 4: I mean, it's the same as saying it, and it's
[3:10] Speaker 4: pretty much until we have it, we tossed. This is
[3:13] Speaker 4: some of the fun you do. Okay, So heads powder
[3:16] Speaker 4: Works road and we'll go tails of road?
[3:19] Speaker 1: Right where would you prefer to go? It doesn't bother me.
[3:23] Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't know why if okay, can.
[3:26] Speaker 6: We talk about any of our camping moments with Gary Johns.
[3:29] Speaker 6: While we are on the way up thanks to bcre.
[3:32] Speaker 4: Well, we figure of a caravan park and you boys
[3:37] Speaker 4: decide can we camp tonight?
[3:39] Speaker 1: Can we? So we decide myself and the old man Gays.
[3:42] Speaker 4: We pitch a pitch a tent next to the caravan
[3:47] Speaker 4: and we all hop in there and we're cheated, chatter
[3:50] Speaker 4: going on. Next when it starts raining, and Cooper, you're
[3:54] Speaker 4: first of all, you're the first domino. You go, I
[3:57] Speaker 4: don't really want to that'll do it. Don't want to
[4:00] Speaker 4: stay here anymore, so you go in. So there's no
[4:03] Speaker 4: Gazz and Jack. Jack goes, I don't want to be
[4:07] Speaker 4: here without Cooper. I'm going to go into the caravan.
[4:09] Speaker 4: So for me and Gas just laying with each other
[4:12] Speaker 4: in this two men tent, just with it pouring outside,
[4:16] Speaker 4: and I thought, okay, right, I said, Gaz, well, I
[4:19] Speaker 4: don't want to stay in here if the boys aren't here,
[4:20] Speaker 4: So I went in. Gaz because he's so stubborn, he
[4:24] Speaker 4: stayed in the tent. It turned into an electrical storm.
[4:27] Speaker 4: He woke up in the morning just like he been
[4:29] Speaker 4: dragged through a swamp.
[4:30] Speaker 3: It was Gas a good camper like, was he in
[4:33] Speaker 3: terms of setting up a ten and that is he
[4:34] Speaker 3: because you're not handy?
[4:35] Speaker 2: But is he like he would I imagine him to
[4:37] Speaker 2: be quite handy with that sort of stuff.
[4:39] Speaker 4: Yeah, he said, well, he's very very handy because made
[4:41] Speaker 4: he's the grounds went on at a few vineyards. They
[4:44] Speaker 4: worked in the coal mines for a long time.
[4:46] Speaker 6: Do you remember that that radio event that you had
[4:49] Speaker 6: on that weekend that time and it was fathers and sons. Yeah,
[4:53] Speaker 6: and you brought us and then gazz came along as well,
[4:55] Speaker 6: and basically all the dads are getting on the grog
[4:58] Speaker 6: one night and then the next morning all the dads
[5:01] Speaker 6: come into our tent and go, yeah, the old man
[5:04] Speaker 6: was telling him so many great stories last night. Oh yeah,
[5:07] Speaker 6: what time did he finish up? And then one by
[5:09] Speaker 6: one they all go, nah, he was still still around
[5:12] Speaker 6: the campfire.
[5:12] Speaker 2: No, he was still around the campfire. It was eight
[5:15] Speaker 2: in the morning. We go out and he's passed out
[5:17] Speaker 2: almost in them.
[5:19] Speaker 1: Was yep, almost in the campfire. He was one. He
[5:22] Speaker 1: was one small roll away from basically be incinerator. So
[5:25] Speaker 1: he just fell asleep next to the fire. Yeah, it's
[5:29] Speaker 1: fair to say you might have had a few drops.
[5:31] Speaker 1: So this is powder Works road. I was going to
[5:34] Speaker 1: go up the next one.
[5:35] Speaker 4: This is I mean, this is a quick one. But
[5:38] Speaker 4: I don't know why we tossed the coin.
[5:42] Speaker 5: That's so different because there's another left up here.
[5:44] Speaker 1: I can take that's quicker though. That's the anything you
[5:46] Speaker 1: sucked a dry.
[5:47] Speaker 4: I don't know, like how many times when you so
[5:49] Speaker 4: we haven't been on like a road trip a long one,
[5:51] Speaker 4: but we've been to Newcastle that many times.
[5:53] Speaker 1: We got the roads in the back too. If you
[5:55] Speaker 1: want to stop and.
[5:56] Speaker 4: Have a flick anyway, Rob Wisher, Rod Rocket Roll, Roger Huesmith.
[6:01] Speaker 3: Stewart, if you want to have a flick anyway as well,
[6:04] Speaker 3: if you see, if you know any good fishing spots
[6:06] Speaker 3: on the way up to the.
[6:07] Speaker 5: Hunter happened to happen to know a couple goop.
[6:10] Speaker 2: Will have to put the line on the cover unless
[6:13] Speaker 2: you can do it yourself.
[6:15] Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I can do that. Have you
[6:20] Speaker 1: ever fished? Yeah, all the time when I was kid.
[6:23] Speaker 4: Every day when we're kid, we get we get the
[6:27] Speaker 4: dinghy out in the boat, go out there, throw the
[6:29] Speaker 4: old line in a few times in the east, the easter,
[6:32] Speaker 4: the Mullet runs through through the North Coast down through
[6:36] Speaker 4: the mid North Coast through Easter right at this time.
[6:39] Speaker 1: Yeah, Big Mullet run goes through Port Stevens.
[6:42] Speaker 3: Well, here's my problem, right, because our whole life you
[6:45] Speaker 3: would you say you've been a groundsman, You say you
[6:47] Speaker 3: can fish when you're going up, you say you can serve.
[6:50] Speaker 3: Yet twenty six years i've been alive, I haven't seen
[6:54] Speaker 3: you do any of them.
[6:57] Speaker 1: Yeah, I know it's hard when you're we got better
[7:01] Speaker 1: things to do.
[7:01] Speaker 4: I suppose and teach my kids how to fish and shoot.
[7:08] Speaker 2: You know what?
[7:09] Speaker 3: You know what's awkward? I suppose when you're driving in
[7:13] Speaker 3: perfect silence?
[7:15] Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? I like it? I
[7:17] Speaker 1: hate it.
[7:18] Speaker 3: I'm sitting here now and I get we're recording, so
[7:20] Speaker 3: it's come to hard for us to play anything else.
[7:23] Speaker 3: But there's something weird about my brain that when you're
[7:26] Speaker 3: driving and it's just us through, there's no music, no
[7:29] Speaker 3: little background musical.
[7:30] Speaker 1: You might have the radio one or the stereo on
[7:32] Speaker 1: on a PODCASTA yep, yep. Do you don't like the silence?
[7:38] Speaker 1: Don't you feel?
[7:39] Speaker 5: Don't you feel it makes you feel like weird?
[7:41] Speaker 1: Okay, let's do twenty seconds of silence. You ready, two three?
[7:52] Speaker 1: That's what you have for that.
[7:53] Speaker 2: Thing you fail?
[7:56] Speaker 1: Right is wrong?
[7:59] Speaker 4: I really miss love so it felt like there was
[8:01] Speaker 4: a hole in my life without maths on. I was
[8:04] Speaker 4: flicking around the channels just trying to find something I
[8:06] Speaker 4: really did. I got really emotional at the end of
[8:09] Speaker 4: it seeing Stella and Philip.
[8:11] Speaker 1: Tie the Knight.
[8:13] Speaker 2: Do you really like them?
[8:14] Speaker 1: Don't you go? Mate? Well? I really like Stella the
[8:18] Speaker 1: Lithuanian she had. She's a lot of integrity, she's tough. Yeah,
[8:26] Speaker 1: some of the others I haven't watched her.
[8:27] Speaker 4: Some of the others leave it a lot to be
[8:29] Speaker 4: desired when it comes to manners, do you reckon?
[8:33] Speaker 6: Many of them would survive in a camping, road tripping situation.
[8:38] Speaker 4: Go up now with you, guys, I don't think that
[8:41] Speaker 4: built for that sort of life though, right would you? Okay,
[8:45] Speaker 4: I'm going to present something to you. If you had
[8:50] Speaker 4: getting emotional, if you had to go on some one
[8:54] Speaker 4: reality show, which one was you?
[8:55] Speaker 1: Go on? Jack your first?
[8:57] Speaker 2: I'd like to do Survivor. I think I'd give that
[9:00] Speaker 2: a crack.
[9:01] Speaker 1: Could you be good? Actually?
[9:03] Speaker 2: I like those ones and those manipulating ones. I think
[9:05] Speaker 2: they're quite cool. I enjoy games like that. They're fun.

[10:49] Speaker 4: down there to see you.
[10:51] Speaker 1: It is a tough drive.
[10:52] Speaker 2: It's not it's not a very flattering drive.
[10:55] Speaker 1: It's not it's not a good drive. Flattering drive. We
[10:57] Speaker 1: got it like.
[10:58] Speaker 3: It's not very like because you're not going coast.
[11:02] Speaker 5: That's not very nice.
[11:03] Speaker 3: I've driven at Heaps, gone Sitney in Melbourne, Melbourne to
[11:07] Speaker 3: Sydney and then Aubrey.
[11:08] Speaker 1: All the time. When you're going a long distance trip,
[11:11] Speaker 1: the drive there is a lot of fun.
[11:13] Speaker 4: It's excitement. You can't wait to get there. I find
[11:15] Speaker 4: the drive home really sad and it feels like it's
[11:17] Speaker 4: three times as long.
[11:20] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[11:20] Speaker 1: So yeah, what we've been talking to Gas and Gale
[11:22] Speaker 1: about number one, what he's.
[11:23] Speaker 4: Been doing Number two for people at this for people
[11:27] Speaker 4: who are on adventure and want to and want to
[11:29] Speaker 4: go to the Hunter.
[11:30] Speaker 1: Valley, what are the must see things. Yeah, what about that?
[11:34] Speaker 4: And that could get us into like discussions about you know,
[11:36] Speaker 4: Gale working at the vineyards, gas to any stuff.
[11:39] Speaker 2: There's that interesting plenty out there, there's a camp site. Well,
[11:44] Speaker 2: people who lots of camping out there.
[11:46] Speaker 6: I've had a few players from Cessna they're all they
[11:49] Speaker 6: do plenty of camp and they go hunting, et cetera.
[11:51] Speaker 1: So, yeah, Pagan there she is the old cathedral.
[11:55] Speaker 3: Oh, the old BCFS BCF fun.
[12:00] Speaker 1: It's a good slogan, like slogan.
[12:03] Speaker 4: Thought it yesterday? Just thinking about that yesterday. Yeah, so
[12:08] Speaker 4: it is true, but you see what about who wants
[12:12] Speaker 4: to hear a joke?
[12:15] Speaker 1: Yeah?
[12:16] Speaker 4: So a pender beer walks into the bar and he
[12:17] Speaker 4: says to the barman, could I have a.
[12:22] Speaker 1: Beer please? And the barman goes, why the long pause?
[12:27] Speaker 1: What did? He says? The long pause?
[12:31] Speaker 2: That's not your best one long pause?
[12:36] Speaker 5: I don't know if they if you'd even call them
[12:38] Speaker 5: pause or more.
[12:39] Speaker 4: So, okay, what about Canadian brown bear goes into a
[12:44] Speaker 4: bar and says I'll have a beer and he says
[12:50] Speaker 4: to the Canadian brown bear, why the long pause?
[12:55] Speaker 1: Do you think that's true? Similar to the horse walks
[12:57] Speaker 1: into the bar long know, I think it's better joke
[13:02] Speaker 1: than that.
[13:03] Speaker 5: I think, yeah, I think it's different.
[13:06] Speaker 2: But I think given how given the horse one has
[13:09] Speaker 2: been around for such a long time, I.
[13:10] Speaker 3: Don't know if you could just jump in and throw
[13:12] Speaker 3: another animal that has a long feature.
[13:15] Speaker 4: Okay, here's a question for you. I've asked this question
[13:18] Speaker 4: to a few people. If you could have a limitless power,
[13:22] Speaker 4: like that movie Limitless where you took the medicine and
[13:25] Speaker 4: all of a sudden the pill and you could just
[13:28] Speaker 4: your brain expend, you could just do anything. Give me
[13:31] Speaker 4: one thing, give me one thing that you get master immediately.
[13:36] Speaker 1: Ask me on the pody before. Actually what I said before,
[13:39] Speaker 1: I've asked.
[13:40] Speaker 3: People, but you've asked me specifically. I think I said.
[13:47] Speaker 3: I think I said to be really good in the
[13:48] Speaker 3: stock market.
[13:49] Speaker 1: You did you remember that I did?
[13:51] Speaker 4: That's right, Yeah, But I think that's a flawed answer
[13:54] Speaker 4: because the fact that the stock market you're.
[13:58] Speaker 1: Relying on other people rather than your own.
[14:00] Speaker 3: I wouldn't say you're alying to other people. Well, if
[14:03] Speaker 3: you had the limitless power, then you could just do
[14:06] Speaker 3: it and.
[14:06] Speaker 1: Study of the market. That's half the battle jack and take.
[14:13] Speaker 2: I wouldn't call it a limitless power.
[14:15] Speaker 6: Wouldn't it would just be the ability to access the
[14:18] Speaker 6: other eighty percent of your brain, wouldn't it be?
[14:20] Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, But did you hear
[14:22] Speaker 1: what he asked? Yeah? What would you what? What? What's
[14:25] Speaker 1: the thing the one thing that you would do? Would
[14:27] Speaker 1: you master? Just one? You're one? Just one? I play,
[14:31] Speaker 1: I'd learn the grand piano.
[14:33] Speaker 2: I'd love to be a good surfer.
[14:35] Speaker 1: That would be good.
[14:36] Speaker 5: That'd be a waste of a limitless power.
[14:39] Speaker 4: Maybe, but you think about like just the hundreds of
[14:43] Speaker 4: hours of fun.
[14:44] Speaker 1: But I'd like to be as good as Kelly Slater Fanning.
[14:48] Speaker 3: But do you think the limitless power is more in
[14:51] Speaker 3: the brain, right, like to master a sport. It feels
[14:56] Speaker 3: like if you've got the opportunity to have a limitless power,
[14:58] Speaker 3: you would use.
[14:58] Speaker 1: It for some sort of.
[15:01] Speaker 2: Like speaking a thousand languages or something.
[15:03] Speaker 4: Everything stems from the central nervous system and the smaller
[15:07] Speaker 4: tested to the data center, which is your brain, your coordination.
[15:12] Speaker 4: Everything everything stems from the brain.
[15:17] Speaker 1: The brain. The physical is just a vehicle.
[15:19] Speaker 5: They reckon that.
[15:19] Speaker 3: The big you can't you can't stand without is it
[15:23] Speaker 3: your pinky toe? You can't balance or your big toe
[15:25] Speaker 3: really probably so big. They reckon it like if you
[15:29] Speaker 3: lose one of them, you like you have no balance.

[19:36] Speaker 4: and dad used to coach yep, and it was just
[19:39] Speaker 4: a normal car.
[19:39] Speaker 1: But you go through Wallombay back.
[19:42] Speaker 4: In the day, and you go through up through Peat's
[19:46] Speaker 4: Ridge and all the way to Peach Ridge was the ray.
[19:49] Speaker 3: You know how people to drive their cars under the
[19:51] Speaker 3: beaches and that you've seen that?
[19:53] Speaker 1: Yep?
[19:54] Speaker 2: Do you ever?
[19:54] Speaker 1: Did you ever do that? I don't trust it all
[19:58] Speaker 1: the time, trust that I wouldn't get stuck in the sand.
[20:03] Speaker 4: Well, if you do, well, if you're going to drive there,
[20:06] Speaker 4: you just got to have a couple of planks out
[20:07] Speaker 4: of the back. Just get stuck in the We've got
[20:09] Speaker 4: him in the back, got him here, it's perfect, and
[20:11] Speaker 4: you place him underneath the back wheels where you go.
[20:14] Speaker 1: Unless it's a front wheel drive, front wheels.
[20:17] Speaker 2: Have you ever ever had to do that?
[20:18] Speaker 1: Personally?
[20:19] Speaker 4: Look, I've been there while someone's done it.
[20:25] Speaker 1: Have you ever? I haven't, So I'm not like trying
[20:29] Speaker 1: to catch you out here.
[20:30] Speaker 5: Change the tithe Yeah you have, yep, plenty of times.
[20:36] Speaker 2: You know how. I know that's not true.
[20:38] Speaker 1: Sweety god, sweaty god.
[20:39] Speaker 6: Because I had to get when I first had tire trouble,
[20:42] Speaker 6: I had one of your mates had to help me
[20:44] Speaker 6: out do it.
[20:44] Speaker 4: I see what happened though these days, back back in
[20:48] Speaker 4: the day, the tires were a lot easier to change
[20:51] Speaker 4: these days, mate, the tires come in some sort of
[20:53] Speaker 4: thing to pull them out.
[20:55] Speaker 1: It's very strange.
[20:58] Speaker 2: You sound convinced.
[21:00] Speaker 1: Good.
[21:00] Speaker 3: You got to put it on a jack Yeah, the
[21:03] Speaker 3: jack said, Cake, I think it's quite dangerous.
[21:08] Speaker 1: Don't a lot of people like you can You can lose.
[21:10] Speaker 4: You gotta be careful, very very careful. But you don't
[21:12] Speaker 4: do it on a on a hill. But isn't there
[21:15] Speaker 4: there's a jack spot. It's like a point where you
[21:17] Speaker 4: have to jack it. You do because I remember who's
[21:21] Speaker 4: got the video? Someone has a video, I seem can
[21:23] Speaker 4: find it, dig it back up and put it with this.
[21:25] Speaker 3: But Craig Bellamy was in the car park of the
[21:28] Speaker 3: training ground.
[21:29] Speaker 2: He had to replace the tire and he just jacked
[21:32] Speaker 2: it up but not on.
[21:33] Speaker 1: The jack point. And one of the boys coming behind
[21:35] Speaker 1: him was filming him laughing and then saw that like.
[21:38] Speaker 3: He hadn't put in the jackpoint and if he hadn't
[21:41] Speaker 3: gone there like he was like, He's like, that was
[21:42] Speaker 3: going to fall on you because you just put it
[21:44] Speaker 3: like just in a random.
[21:46] Speaker 4: Spot gets con selected that week somebody tells me he did.
[21:52] Speaker 2: That's a lesson for everyone. Isn't it good?
[21:54] Speaker 1: It is? Don't put the jack where it shouldn't go.
[21:59] Speaker 1: Don't don't let supercoaches change these tires.
[22:04] Speaker 2: That's a lesson for everyone. Everyone's got their strengths and weaknesses.
[22:08] Speaker 1: Tell me is an idiot when it comes here? He's
[22:10] Speaker 1: a fool. He's a fool. Harry Potter, Craig Bare Let me,

[22:52] Speaker 4: Trader, The whole Star Wars franchise was like was built
[22:58] Speaker 4: on the great characters and reality where that that it
[23:01] Speaker 4: was like almost like a animation.

[23:14] Speaker 1: addition in return of the Jedi.

[23:34] Speaker 1: it Blade Runner twenty thirty four, twenty thirty four.

[23:42] Speaker 3: the sake of the viting, like they obviously acted. Sometimes
[23:44] Speaker 3: they just say, I'll just punched me. And he was
[23:46] Speaker 3: icing his like face and then apparently Harrison Ford came over,
[23:51] Speaker 3: grabbed the ice off him and just started icing his fist.
