[1:29] Speaker 3: What year was that?

[1:33] Speaker 2: generation ago.
[1:34] Speaker 5: And you know, but every year when that award is
[1:36] Speaker 5: given out, I always think of you because that was
[1:38] Speaker 5: my first comedy.
[1:38] Speaker 3: Festival that year.
[1:39] Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, really?
[1:40] Speaker 5: And you know that your first comedy festival is you
[1:41] Speaker 5: remember everything that happened and all those big moments. So
[1:44] Speaker 5: every time I think of you, I relate you to
[1:46] Speaker 5: like award. Those like late night shows in like the
[1:49] Speaker 5: crazy ones in Edinburgh.
[1:50] Speaker 2: Oh my God. Yeah. Late and live. Did you do it? 2007, 2008.
[1:54] Speaker 2: I did it a few times. Randy and I, Randy
[1:58] Speaker 2: and I were on as a duo. Just before we
[2:00] Speaker 2: went on, the guy who was on stage was bombing hard.
[2:02] Speaker 2: It was like 2 a.m. People were still smoking inside.
[2:05] Speaker 2: Someone threw a glass at him and it missed him.
[2:08] Speaker 2: But this guy was so like off his nut and
[2:11] Speaker 2: was just really aggressive. He picked up the pint glass
[2:13] Speaker 2: and smashed it into his own face. blood streaming down
[2:17] Speaker 2: his face, and he goes, come on, who else wants
[2:19] Speaker 2: to throw? He invited people to throw more glasses at him.
[2:23] Speaker 2: Randy and I, the little quaint musical comedy duo from Australia,
[2:26] Speaker 2: are waiting side stage to go on, thinking, how do
[2:28] Speaker 2: we follow this? Turns out they hated him so much
[2:31] Speaker 2: that we did really well, because, you know, like, a
[2:33] Speaker 2: nice breath of fresh air.
[2:35] Speaker 3: Also, if they'd hit Randy, I mean, it's a puppet.
[2:37] Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a pillow. But yeah.
[2:40] Speaker 3: I've done Montreal so many times.
[2:42] Speaker 6: Yeah.
[2:42] Speaker 2: Montreal I've done a couple of times, which was always,
[2:44] Speaker 2: I found that more intimidating because it's so many important
[2:47] Speaker 2: people with lanyards marching around.
[2:48] Speaker 3: Oh my God, it's a lanyard city.
[2:49] Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
[2:50] Speaker 5: Because that's, yeah, Montreal was invite only and you're not
[2:54] Speaker 5: really doing full show. I did a full show once
[2:56] Speaker 5: and loved it because I prefer an hour.
[2:58] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[2:58] Speaker 3: But you're doing spots.
[2:59] Speaker 6: Yeah.
[3:00] Speaker 3: Four minutes, eight minutes.
[3:01] Speaker 2: Your spots are like. killer so you would have just
[3:03] Speaker 2: been able to get up there and enjoy every second
[3:05] Speaker 2: or were you freaking out about who's in the audience and.
[3:07] Speaker 5: Yeah but then no but that the Montreal people they
[3:09] Speaker 5: come and time you because it's all about the galas
[3:12] Speaker 5: there so and it's always a close like I'm on
[3:14] Speaker 5: the Jane Lynch.
[3:15] Speaker 2: Gala we did the the Neil Patrick Harris gala.
[3:18] Speaker 3: I was there that year.
[3:18] Speaker 2: That's right.
[3:19] Speaker 3: I interviewed you. You did?
[3:20] Speaker 2: You did?
[3:21] Speaker 5: Yeah, because I was hosting the Channel 10 broadcast and
[3:24] Speaker 5: then Tommy Little took over.
[3:26] Speaker 2: Any young comedians listening, this is what your career gets to.
[3:28] Speaker 2: You end up having an interview with someone. You both
[3:30] Speaker 2: forget that you both, where you were, that you chatted.
[3:33] Speaker 6: Yeah.
[3:34] Speaker 2: It's all a blur.
[3:35] Speaker 3: The Neil Patrick Harris one, I was at it. It
[3:36] Speaker 3: was good.
[3:37] Speaker 2: It was wild. We came out on a giant replica
[3:39] Speaker 2: of the Titanic at the end with Puddles the Clown
[3:42] Speaker 2: singing My Heart Will Go On. These are things that
[3:44] Speaker 2: I try and tell my kids now what I've done
[3:45] Speaker 2: for a job and it just sounds like I'm making
[3:47] Speaker 2: it up.
[3:48] Speaker 1: The Joel Creasy Show.
[3:49] Speaker 3: Now, over the years, you've had four ARIA nominations for
[3:52] Speaker 3: Best Comedy Release. Do you go and do you cut loose?
[3:56] Speaker 2: The first one I went because I was so excited.
[3:58] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[3:58] Speaker 2: Taylor Swift was there.
[3:59] Speaker 6: 2012.
[4:00] Speaker 2: What? I was backstage with Taylor Swift. Like literally, because 2012,
[4:04] Speaker 2: she was just getting big. She was big enough to
[4:07] Speaker 2: perform the Arias.
[4:07] Speaker 3: Love story day.
[4:08] Speaker 2: But the Arias are not like Grammys. Yeah, I know.
[4:12] Speaker 2: She's just walking past me backstage like, hi, babe. Wow.
[4:14] Speaker 2: And then I didn't win. And then I went back again.
[4:17] Speaker 2: Didn't win. Went back again. Didn't win. Fourth one, I thought,
[4:20] Speaker 2: you know what? I'm going to sit this one.
[4:21] Speaker 3: Imagine if you'd won.
[4:24] Speaker 2: So I'm four-time Aria losing Sammy J.
[4:27] Speaker 5: Well, you know, I always hear Meryl Streep say, when
[4:29] Speaker 5: people talk about how many times She's won an Oscar.
[4:31] Speaker 3: She's like, yeah, but I've lost more than anybody else
[4:33] Speaker 3: as well. So you are the Meryl Streep of Australian
[4:35] Speaker 3: comedy is what I'm saying.
[4:36] Speaker 2: And thank you. That's the kindest thing anyone's ever said
[4:38] Speaker 2: to me. And then they cut the comedy award, the category.
[4:40] Speaker 2: So you can't, it's never going to happen now. Unless
[4:43] Speaker 2: I turned a country and Western or something. Yeah.
[4:45] Speaker 3: Well, you could.
[4:45] Speaker 5: I could. I, damn, I didn't know that it was cut.
[4:47] Speaker 5: Cause I always thought about releasing like a spoken word album.
[4:50] Speaker 2: Too late. Too late, Joel. You missed the chance.
[4:52] Speaker 3: You took all the noms.
[4:53] Speaker 6: Yeah.
[4:53] Speaker 5: You're doing an encore show at Fringe Encore in Ballarat,
[4:56] Speaker 5: October 24th. MelbourneFringe.com.au for tickets.
[5:00] Speaker 3: What show are you doing?
[5:01] Speaker 2: So this is my favourite show. It's called Hero Complex.
[5:03] Speaker 2: I did it 10 years ago for the first time,
[5:05] Speaker 2: and I've been touring it around the country this year
[5:07] Speaker 2: because more things have happened. But in a nutshell, 10
[5:11] Speaker 2: years ago, some federal policemen searched my attic. This is true.
[5:14] Speaker 2: I'm not making it up. They knocked on my door.
[5:15] Speaker 2: They wanted to search my attic. And that all can
[5:19] Speaker 2: be traced back to a moment in 1996, Joel Creasy,
[5:22] Speaker 2: when I swapped a Phantom comic with my school gardener.
[5:25] Speaker 2: And this story tells the entire true tale. of that interaction.
[5:30] Speaker 2: Do you know who the Phantom is? Ever heard of
[5:32] Speaker 2: the Phantom?
[5:32] Speaker 3: As in the comic?
[5:33] Speaker 2: Yeah, the comic. Yeah. Because, like, most people haven't.
[5:36] Speaker 3: And normally when I'm talking about the Phantom with my circle,
[5:39] Speaker 3: it's of the opera.
[5:40] Speaker 2: Oh, and same. You've got to be ashamed to like
[5:44] Speaker 2: musical theatre in Australia. You've got to be even more
[5:46] Speaker 2: ashamed to like the Phantom comic book character. And I
[5:49] Speaker 2: have both loves in my life.
[5:51] Speaker 6: Wow.
[5:51] Speaker 2: Yeah, like no one else in 1996, everyone else liked Batman, Superman, X-Men.
[5:56] Speaker 2: For whatever reason, I was the weird kid who liked
[5:57] Speaker 2: The Phantom.
[5:58] Speaker 3: Oh, you were a bit off-Broadway.
[5:59] Speaker 2: I was off-Broadway.
[6:01] Speaker 3: And what's the Phantom's deal? What's their power?
[6:05] Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing. Nothing. Like, The Phantom doesn't kill anyone.
[6:08] Speaker 2: The Phantom doesn't have any superpowers. He's just like a
[6:12] Speaker 2: good dude.
[6:12] Speaker 3: A mediator or something.
[6:13] Speaker 2: Yeah, basically a master of diplomacy person. A few problematic things.
[6:18] Speaker 2: He lives in the jungle ruling over a tribe of
[6:20] Speaker 2: pygmy cannibals who he believes is immortal. But look, it
[6:22] Speaker 2: was a different time in the 1930s. That's when it
[6:25] Speaker 2: was invented.
[6:26] Speaker 3: So wait, you swapped a phantom comic with a gardener.
[6:29] Speaker 2: So my school gardener, I saw him wearing a phantom
[6:31] Speaker 2: t-shirt and it was like my biggest moment of my life.
[6:33] Speaker 2: I was like, There's someone else who likes my niche interest. Yeah.
[6:37] Speaker 2: You know, when you find a friend.
[6:38] Speaker 3: Of course. Oh, and there's someone else like me.
[6:40] Speaker 2: Yeah. My friend was the school gardener, though, so I
[6:42] Speaker 2: used to follow him around like a little Disney sidekick,
[6:45] Speaker 2: just annoying the hell out of him. That led to
[6:48] Speaker 2: a friendship. That led to many things happening. It led
[6:51] Speaker 2: to me meeting my wife. I can directly link my
[6:55] Speaker 2: wife and family to that moment in the schoolyard, which
[6:58] Speaker 2: I do in this show.
[6:59] Speaker 6: Yeah.
[6:59] Speaker 2: And it led to the cops searching my attic. I
[7:03] Speaker 2: can't give you more information because it ruins the show.
[7:05] Speaker 5: I was going to say, I can see why you
[7:06] Speaker 5: get so many award nominations. I'm sold.
[7:09] Speaker 3: I'm going to Ballarat. That's brilliant.
[7:10] Speaker 2: Yeah, come along.
[7:11] Speaker 5: You must get along to see Sammy J. Fringe your
[7:14] Speaker 5: core in Ballarat, October 24, melbournefringe.com.au.
[7:17] Speaker 3: You're the best. Congratulations.
[7:18] Speaker 2: Great to see you, man. Thanks so much.
[7:19] Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll see you in like another 30 years.
[7:21] Speaker 2: We'll catch up.
[7:22] Speaker 5: Well, you can catch up on my full chat with
[7:24] Speaker 5: comedian Sammy J on the Joel Creasy Show podcast. We'll
[7:27] Speaker 5: get some more last with my bestie, Janelle Koenig, up
[7:29] Speaker 5: after this.
[7:31] Speaker 3: Grab your juice.
[7:35] Speaker 7: Boxes and sit down for story time with Joel's bestie
[7:39] Speaker 7: from the Westie, Janelle Koenig.
[7:41] Speaker 1: Janelle's Juice Box.
[7:46] Speaker 5: Every Tuesday I call my best mate and hilarious comedian
[7:48] Speaker 5: Janelle Koenig for a chat.
[7:50] Speaker 3: Hello, darling.
[7:51] Speaker 4: Hi, babe. Do I sound relaxed?
[7:53] Speaker 3: You sound zen AF right now.
[7:58] Speaker 4: I've been on a holiday lately.
[7:59] Speaker 5: Yes, you have too. I called you and was amazed
[8:03] Speaker 5: that you're on holiday. Sans Kids?
[8:05] Speaker 2: Sans Kids.
[8:06] Speaker 4: First time ever with my partner, Phil. Sans Kids for
[8:10] Speaker 4: 12 whole nights.
[8:11] Speaker 3: Wow.
[8:11] Speaker 4: And it wasn't even in Bali.
[8:14] Speaker 3: And are you and Phil still together after 12 whole nights?
[8:17] Speaker 4: Yes. I remember how to talk to him. It was crazy.
[8:20] Speaker 3: Catch up on the last few years.
[8:21] Speaker 2: It was crazy.
[8:24] Speaker 4: It was wild. So my friend Paul turned 60 and
[8:29] Speaker 4: he decided that all he wanted was to go on
[8:33] Speaker 4: the Priscilla tour by bus from Adelaide to Alice Springs.
[8:39] Speaker 3: Is Paul a member of my community?
[8:41] Speaker 2: He is.
[8:42] Speaker 4: He is one of yours.
[8:43] Speaker 3: Call me shocked.
[8:48] Speaker 4: So there were nine of us on a bus that
[8:50] Speaker 4: did that incredible tour. And Joel, let me tell you,
[8:53] Speaker 4: I've turned into the outdoorsy type.
[8:57] Speaker 2: Me.
[8:58] Speaker 4: What?
[8:58] Speaker 6: You.
[8:59] Speaker 4: I did outdoorsy things.
[9:01] Speaker 3: Like what?
[9:02] Speaker 5: I know you had to get onto the bus at
[9:03] Speaker 5: some point, but what else?
[9:08] Speaker 4: I used a Segway around the base of Uluru. I
[9:13] Speaker 4: didn't know a Segway was a machine. I thought it
[9:15] Speaker 4: was a comedy device. I had no idea. Look, I
[9:19] Speaker 4: wasn't good at it.
[9:20] Speaker 3: Well, look, I've ridden one once. They're actually quite tricky.
[9:24] Speaker 4: Quite tricky. And the poor girl, because you kind of
[9:28] Speaker 4: have to use your kind of belly to propel it
[9:31] Speaker 4: forward rather than your hand.
[9:33] Speaker 3: Yeah, your core.
[9:34] Speaker 2: Your core, that's the one.
[9:35] Speaker 4: That's the one, your core. And the girl that was
[9:38] Speaker 4: doing the instructing was like, just so you know, you
[9:40] Speaker 4: don't need to hunch so much over the machine. And
[9:44] Speaker 4: I said, how dare you? That's my posture. And she
[9:47] Speaker 4: got really worried because I was on the grass wing.
[9:50] Speaker 4: So I did that. I was outdoorsy. I went in
[9:53] Speaker 4: a helicopter over Kings Canyon. And I've never been in
[9:57] Speaker 4: a helicopter. I was incredibly nervous.
[10:01] Speaker 3: Well, you weren't flying it.
[10:04] Speaker 4: Really, really nervous until the point when the assistant decided
[10:09] Speaker 4: that he'd reach behind me and get the seat belt
[10:11] Speaker 4: extender out.
[10:13] Speaker 5: What?
[10:14] Speaker 4: Can you believe it? But why?
[10:18] Speaker 6: That's so rude, but why?
[10:22] Speaker 4: Well, why do you think? That wasn't going to be bad,
[10:25] Speaker 4: I'm talking. I'm going to tell myself that perhaps a
[10:28] Speaker 4: child had used that seatbelt before.
[10:30] Speaker 3: I should hope so.
[10:31] Speaker 4: Yeah, mortifying.
[10:33] Speaker 2: Mortifying.
[10:34] Speaker 7: Jesus.
[10:35] Speaker 4: And then we ended up in Darwin and we did
[10:37] Speaker 4: a day trip around the Adelaide River and the jumping
[10:41] Speaker 4: crocodiles and I went in three different water holes So
[10:44] Speaker 4: proud of you. I was very trepidatious, like, over slippery rocks, thinking, oh,
[10:48] Speaker 4: my God, if I have to get hauled out of here,
[10:51] Speaker 4: I'm going to winch. Because it was like 150 steps
[10:54] Speaker 4: down into this waterfall. It was crazy. It was crazy.
[10:58] Speaker 4: But I feel very refreshed. But I've really, after seeing
[11:02] Speaker 4: such an incredible side of our country and, like, really
[11:06] Speaker 4: incredible visual, spectacular moments, I just want to say to
[11:11] Speaker 4: you that your 40th is four years away.
[11:14] Speaker 2: Oh, thanks for the reminder.
[11:15] Speaker 3: Jesus.
[11:16] Speaker 4: But if you decide that you want to do a
[11:20] Speaker 4: destination holiday, I really recommend Europe.
[11:28] Speaker 3: I was so nervous there for a moment. All right. Yeah,
[11:32] Speaker 3: thank you. That is confirmed. And, yes, I am 36
[11:34] Speaker 3: years old.
[11:37] Speaker 2: Thanks, Janelle.
[11:38] Speaker 5: Speaking of segues, we're going to get a scroll update
[11:40] Speaker 5: up next and check in with my favourite topic at
[11:42] Speaker 5: the moment, the Kelly Clarkson drama with a store in
[11:44] Speaker 5: Brooklyn over an animatronic bird.
[11:46] Speaker 2: Up next.
[11:47] Speaker 1: This is The Joel Creasy Show.
[11:49] Speaker 7: Time to read up on all the hot goss in
[11:52] Speaker 7: the world of showbiz from an actual scroll delivered straight
[11:57] Speaker 7: to Joel's studio.
[11:58] Speaker 6: It's Joel.
[11:59] Speaker 2: Apple's scroll update.
[12:01] Speaker 3: Oh, Natalie Lock, you join me on a very busy day. Oh,
[12:04] Speaker 3: I can't wait, Joel.
[12:05] Speaker 2: What have you got for me?
[12:06] Speaker 5: Social media is ablaze. The Kelly Clarkson v. Art of
[12:10] Speaker 5: Play record store in Brooklyn is ongoing. You're across the feud.
[12:15] Speaker 3: Okay. We brushed up on it earlier.
[12:17] Speaker 6: So just to be clear, this is about an animatronic
[12:19] Speaker 6: singing bird, right?
[12:20] Speaker 5: This is about Molly, the $ 15, 000 animatronic singing bird that
[12:23] Speaker 5: Kelly Clarkson spent her Saturday going to procure from a...
[12:27] Speaker 5: Very hipster record store in Brooklyn. She claims that they
[12:31] Speaker 5: gave her the pretty woman treatment.
[12:33] Speaker 6: You can't afford this animatronic singing bird. Yeah.
[12:37] Speaker 5: Well, they're now claiming that Kelly spent five minutes. Well,
[12:40] Speaker 5: they first clapped back and said, you know, that we
[12:42] Speaker 5: did not expect to be attacked by eight million of
[12:44] Speaker 5: Kelly Clarkson's followers.
[12:45] Speaker 3: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Very clever.
[12:48] Speaker 6: Yes.
[12:49] Speaker 5: But they're now claiming that Kelly spent five minutes in
[12:51] Speaker 5: the store and they explained the mechanical bird she asked
[12:54] Speaker 5: to buy.
[12:54] Speaker 3: Molly was permanently attached to the wall. But they offered
[12:58] Speaker 3: her a similar to one for $ 2, 000.
[13:00] Speaker 6: Oh, no, but that's not– no, I mean, that's not
[13:04] Speaker 6: going to be as good, is it? Well, I love
[13:06] Speaker 6: that Kelly's– So what is the difference? Is the bird
[13:08] Speaker 6: the same size but just its singing range is smaller?
[13:11] Speaker 2: Like, how does it– what happens?
[13:12] Speaker 3: Yeah, it can't hit a top F.
[13:16] Speaker 1: Same.
[13:18] Speaker 5: Well, I love that she's incensed that she was offered
[13:21] Speaker 5: a $ 2, 000 bird.
[13:22] Speaker 6: Like, don't you know who I am? I can afford
[13:24] Speaker 6: a $ 15, 000 animatronic bird. I love that this is a
[13:29] Speaker 6: story that's gripped the world.
[13:30] Speaker 2: It's gripped the world.
[13:31] Speaker 3: I think this is what we need in these dark times.
[13:33] Speaker 5: A Brooklyn artist also posted a video from a week
[13:36] Speaker 5: ago of herself playing with a bird, telling her followers
[13:39] Speaker 5: to support the store as they were kind and helpful.
[13:42] Speaker 5: I actually just saw the stores closed today because so
[13:44] Speaker 5: many people are there. trying to, like, cover it in
[13:47] Speaker 5: a stupid sort of, like, CNN-esque way.
[13:49] Speaker 3: Yes, of course, of course.
[13:51] Speaker 6: I mean, because it is the biggest story in the world. So.
[13:54] Speaker 5: Are you Team Kelly or Team Brooklyn Record Store?
[13:59] Speaker 6: Oh, I'm Team Brooklyn all the way, because I think
[14:00] Speaker 6: if a store that puts up their hand and says, no,
[14:03] Speaker 6: we're too cool, we're not selling you Kelly Clarkson this bird,
[14:07] Speaker 6: I'm all right with that. And I say that as
[14:10] Speaker 6: a great admirer of Kelly Clarkson's. I think she's incredible.
[14:13] Speaker 6: I think her voice is... Unparalleled.
[14:15] Speaker 3: She's a legitimate superstar.
[14:17] Speaker 6: But it's just funny that there is a store that
[14:20] Speaker 6: is so hip that they're like, no, don't care.
[14:22] Speaker 2: Keeping our bird.
[14:23] Speaker 5: It's so funny that, yeah, global pop superstar Kelly Clarkson
[14:26] Speaker 5: wants his bird for a house as well.
[14:28] Speaker 7: Yes.
[14:28] Speaker 6: Also, Kelly Clarkson, you can sing. You don't need an
[14:30] Speaker 6: animatronic singing bird. I do because I can't sing. I
[14:34] Speaker 6: need something else to do it for me.
[14:35] Speaker 3: I want that bird.
[14:37] Speaker 6: So the artist that makes these birds, have we heard
[14:39] Speaker 6: from them? Are they being inundated with inquiries about their
[14:43] Speaker 6: animatronic singing birds?
[14:44] Speaker 3: I imagine it's a very good time for the artist.
[14:47] Speaker 6: What a time to be alive.
[14:49] Speaker 3: Breaking news, the bird has got a Twitter account. It
[14:52] Speaker 3: got an ex-account.
[14:53] Speaker 6: Well, that makes sense.
[14:54] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[14:54] Speaker 6: It would have been funny if it was Twitter.
[14:55] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[14:57] Speaker 5: Hello, it is time for me to chirp my side
[15:00] Speaker 5: of the story.
[15:01] Speaker 6: Amazing.
[15:01] Speaker 5: Unfortunately, I have much bigger problems than at Kelly Clarkson
[15:05] Speaker 5: or Art of Play. Let's talk about the real problem, cloning.
[15:09] Speaker 5: Why are there replicas of me out there? I'm just
[15:11] Speaker 5: finding out about.
[15:12] Speaker 6: Why are they so cheap? So the bird's now upset.
[15:15] Speaker 6: I think the bird would have said, why are they
[15:17] Speaker 6: so cheap? I'm sorry, I'll go now.
[15:21] Speaker 5: I was also going to get on to Selma Blair
[15:23] Speaker 5: was arrested over an in-flight incident after allegedly attempting to
[15:25] Speaker 5: open a door mid-air and attack the crew. But, hey,
[15:28] Speaker 5: let's save that for another time. Let's just keep it
[15:30] Speaker 5: to Molly, the animatronic singing bird.
[15:32] Speaker 3: Yeah, don't ruin our vibe, Selma Blair.
[15:34] Speaker 2: Stop it.
[15:35] Speaker 3: Watch this space. I'll have an update tomorrow.
[15:37] Speaker 2: Oh, I will be. Don't you worry.
[15:39] Speaker 3: It's so funny.
[15:41] Speaker 5: Thank you so much for joining me, Natalie. Tomorrow I'll
[15:43] Speaker 5: be back with actor and comedian Michelle Buteau, who is
[15:46] Speaker 5: touring Australia.
[15:47] Speaker 3: Up next, Ricky Lee and Tim.
