Episode Transcript
[00:00:13] Speaker A: He's disappeared.
[00:00:19] Speaker B: I like doing this to you, Paul.
[00:00:24] Speaker A: 1 minute you're there, then you.
[00:00:25] Speaker B: He's.
[00:00:25] Speaker A: He's there. He's everywhere.
How are you?
[00:00:30] Speaker B: Well, the good news is I'm reasonably sober this week. As an artifact of being on late shift. Last week I was three or four sheets to the wind. I watched about five minutes of the episode and I thought, this guy needs to be on drunk history doing Genghis Khan or Alexander the great or Paul from Shropshire. Yeah, I could only watch five minutes, like, this guy's really drunk. But no, I'm on late shift this week, so I'm reasonably sober.
[00:01:01] Speaker A: Let's go.
[00:01:02] Speaker B: I'm quite. I'm quite excited about the theme of the semi theme for this episode. So, yeah, we're doing a comparison between the australian charts in 1987 versus 1997. And I pulled up 87 for me and I'm really, really quite excited.
[00:01:21] Speaker A: I'm at 97 and I'm excited about that one. But just before we get into, do you know the significance of the years 1987 and 1997 for me.
[00:01:33] Speaker B: Ten years apart, they're made up of numbers.
[00:01:37] Speaker A: 1987, you had a birthday in each.
[00:01:40] Speaker B: Of those years, which is an amazing thing.
[00:01:42] Speaker A: Yeah, I was. That was the year I joined the Navy. I was 12. January 19, 8087.
[00:01:50] Speaker B: And in 19, what did you do in the navy?
[00:01:53] Speaker A: I was electrician.
[00:01:56] Speaker B: Oh, okay. So, yeah, work down there with the stokers and all that?
[00:02:00] Speaker A: Um, yeah, a little bit, yeah. Depends on. I was on different boats and different. I was on the first part of my career I was on white boats.
On white boats the electricians normally use. Well, they used to work way back then with the.
The weapons officers, not the stokers.
[00:02:19] Speaker B: Some.
[00:02:20] Speaker A: Some did, some didn't, so. But I was on small boats as well, so we only had crews of like 13 or 14. So it was really tight knit.
Tight.
[00:02:30] Speaker B: So, 1997, the significance as the birth.
[00:02:33] Speaker A: Of my first me older son.
Yeah.
[00:02:38] Speaker B: Nice. Yeah, nice. I like it. It's good.
[00:02:41] Speaker A: 97. That makes him, like, old.
[00:02:45] Speaker B: Ah, mate, you're not as old as me. It's all good. I've come to accept this fact that, um, it's like I'm old.
[00:02:52] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:02:53] Speaker B: Still got this 25 year old's brain trapped in here. But, um.
[00:02:57] Speaker A: But you're the 70 year old hair.
[00:03:04] Speaker B: Yours isn't looking that flashy either, pal. Seriously.
[00:03:07] Speaker A: I know it's disappearing, trying to grow it to go to comb over.
[00:03:12] Speaker B: Oh, no. You know what? I really want to experiment with the spray on stuff.
Just for shits and giggles.
[00:03:22] Speaker A: Be like, Donald Trump must be a mosquito flying around. I don't worry. Don't know where he's come from.
[00:03:28] Speaker B: But that is the funniest thing. You just reminded me of a memory of my late dad when my mum sort of left our family. Dad was all of 33, 34 years old, so to our eyes, quite a young man. He had four kids to look after him. But my dad to me was always bald and he had this long strip of hair that he grew down there, you know, and he flip it over and it can be funny because. Ah, seriously, serious, serious comb over, my old manhead. And we play sport like he built a bad. We caught them in the backyard and we played sport. Now, kudos to my dad. He never went easy on me. He.
He played to win.
[00:04:18] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:04:18] Speaker B: You know, to me it was. And I was a little kid, but to me it was a big thing. Whenever I won a game of badminton or the table tennis table set up in the games room, it was like. Yeah.
And I think it was a good lesson because I was actually a really, really good table tennis player. And same with playing snooker and billiards. Snooker, billiards. And Paul, dad never cut you an even break. He was there to win. Even if you were only eight years old, but he was there to win and. Yeah, got that lesson from dad. But, yeah, I remember the comb over. Whenever he did some exertion there, this wild hair would go flapping in the wind.
[00:05:01] Speaker A: Yeah. Can you imagine kids these days? These days they all get participation awards, man. You gotta just get out there and do it.
[00:05:10] Speaker B: I'll agree to disagree with you. I think it's. I think it's a good thing because not everybody can be good at stuff and you do.
You can feel left out. You know, I went to school with some great sports people. I'm never gonna be you at anything and, you know, but giving you to go, I think, is a good thing.
[00:05:32] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:05:32] Speaker B: Oh, there was things that I was really good at.
[00:05:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:05:35] Speaker B: But there were things that other people were really good at and better than me and I wasn't good at.
I think sort of saying, hey, you gave it a go. I think that's a good thing.
[00:05:45] Speaker A: Yeah. So giving something a go is good, but.
[00:05:49] Speaker B: Yeah, and that's what it's about. It's not a participation trophy. It is a. You gave it a go.
[00:05:54] Speaker A: Yeah. You know, given a goes. Alright, but you know, you've got it, you gotta. I reckon you got to go all in. You've got to go into win, not going.
I see people go into stuff. I just want to try it out. Do you want to win or do what? Because if you don't want to win, you're going to get.
[00:06:13] Speaker B: Actually, I'll tell you a story. I got into futsal, quite old, and I was really looking forward to being possibly, you know, getting on the news as the oldest person is still playing footsal and footstools mad, you know, and I could only go on because it's an interchange game and I could only go on for a few minutes and I'd come off and be like, yeah, sub. You know, like that.
And when we first started, we used to get slaughtered. We were in like the fourth division and all that. And just. We spent years and years and years of hard graphing, pretty much the same basis, basis of the team and we worked our way up the divisions, but we never. We got into a couple of grand finals but we didn't win them, you know, and things like that.
And finally there was one year, it was my last year, we were in the semi final and I had this huge collision and I bruised my intercostal muscles and my liver and I was in a world of pain and we were in the grand final.
Not our first grand final, but we were in a grand final and it was against a team that we had a bit of a rivalry with. Bugger me, I'm on the sidelines. My team wins the grand final without me.
But we won the grand final. Yeah, I got a trophy.
[00:07:33] Speaker A: Did you get a hug as well?
[00:07:35] Speaker B: Yeah. No, I wouldn't have liked a hug. I was really in a world of pain.
[00:07:40] Speaker A: I remember we used to play touch football down in Mandurah.
[00:07:44] Speaker B: Yes. Yeah, I love my touch. I would love to be fit enough to play it again. It is once you get your head around it and it does take a long time to get your head around it. It is the most awesome game on. Just.
Just the tactics as well of how to play it, you know, and how to. Yeah, it is an awesome guy. I love touch. Yeah.
[00:08:06] Speaker A: I was playing up in crother five years ago and I went to one of the local footy clubs, one of the local rugby league clubs now up in craft that are all full of Kiwis and Maoris, they're all big boys up there that playing footy. So I ring up one of the clubs and said, I just want to get fit. Can I come and train with you guys twice a week?
So I was training twice a week, footy club and then playing touch footy.
They said, yeah, no worries, you can come down a train with us. So I did that then on the Thursday night, said, oh, we're playing on Saturday. Make sure you come down on Saturday and watch the game, or come down on Saturday for the game, no worries.
And then I get down there and they're like, where's your boots with you? Where's your kid? So I'm only training with you guys. And I said, no, no, no. Go register quickly. You're playing.
So I went race away and registered to come back. Now, I haven't played rugby league in years and years and years. I've just been to two training sessions and I've been playing touch footy. We go into the change rooms and thinking, you know, the. The guy said, oh, we will put you on five minutes at the end just to give you some exposure, you know, and have some fun. So, yeah, no worries. And we get into the change rooms, we get our kid on. The coach comes in and says, righto, folks. We're, um. We've only got 13 players. We've got no subs.
We're all playing a full game, so have fun.
And I ended up getting torn apart. I had torn groin muscles, broken finger, broken ribs.
[00:09:36] Speaker B: But you play. Sports are fun, right?
[00:09:38] Speaker A: Don't you? As I said, you go out there to win.
We didn't.
[00:09:45] Speaker B: It is what it is.
[00:09:47] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:47] Speaker B: It was learning experience.
[00:09:49] Speaker A: Yep. Yeah, it was good. But there was only, like, five years ago, so.
Yeah. No one of mine yet. No, six years ago, I was 48 or not.
[00:09:59] Speaker B: So, yeah, I was playing the foots all into my fifties. Yeah, I only gave up playing about six years ago, so, yeah, I was hell old.
[00:10:10] Speaker A: Yeah.
Anyway, so what do we got for 1987? We get sort of 50.
[00:10:17] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Oh, bugger. Because one hundred's really, really good. 100. You can count down 90 days.
Yeah, you think?
[00:10:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:10:25] Speaker B: In an hour.
[00:10:26] Speaker A: Yeah, just. All right, so we'll skip a couple. Some aren't really that good.
[00:10:30] Speaker B: Yeah. Okay, so at 100, you can call me Al. Paul Simon.
[00:10:36] Speaker A: Yes.
Yeah, that's a good one.
[00:10:42] Speaker B: Um. Yeah. Crap Wawani. You remember one? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sugar free. Aren't they still too, probably?
[00:10:51] Speaker A: I think they are.
[00:10:52] Speaker B: You know, I mean, everybody's still touring. 1927 and Jojo's it. Gary Moore, Friday.
Yeah, sugar free.
[00:11:04] Speaker A: Not Georgie Parker. Who's the other one? Wendy Matthews. She was in. Well.
[00:11:08] Speaker B: Really?

[00:11:15] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:11:18] Speaker B: Um. Following my mind. Gary Morrison?
[00:11:20] Speaker A: No. Was it the models?
You might have been in the models. It was the models, yeah. You can look it up later.
[00:11:28] Speaker B: What's the Internet for? Wendy Matthews?
[00:11:31] Speaker A: Not to be confused with Georgie Parker.

All right. Jenny Morris, early years. I don't know.
[00:11:45] Speaker A: Models. Sorry? Against the models.
[00:11:49] Speaker B: Really, was it. She did backing vocal for the models.
[00:11:53] Speaker A: There you go. Yeah, I got them confused as well.
[00:11:56] Speaker B: They went wrong.
Oh, what's the next one?
He's just no good for you. Mental is anything at 91?
[00:12:10] Speaker A: And.
[00:12:11] Speaker B: Okay, one hit wonder and I'll stop at 90. The cutting crew. I just died in your arms tonight.

[00:12:19] Speaker B: No, I've got it in my library.
[00:12:21] Speaker A: I'm gonna forget it on the radio station. I've got, like, the hooters and the rest of them.
This place is full of bugs tonight.
The dogs have let insects in the house anyway, right?
[00:12:36] Speaker B: I've told you before, mate, you need to take at least one shower a day.
[00:12:40] Speaker A: I do.
I could take more. Okay, number what, starting at 100 from 1997 was come and. Come and ride it. The train by Quad City DJ's.

What do we got? We got two pack featuring notorious big at 93 with running human nature. Wishes was at 94.
91, four seasons of ladiness, boys to men. Number 90 was. The end is the beginning. Smashing pumpkins.
Well, this is.
[00:13:28] Speaker B: I thought you said 1997 was good.
[00:13:31] Speaker A: What it is at the beginning. It's not the end of it, is it? That's beginning here. Like we've got Marilyn Manson in there as well then.
[00:13:38] Speaker B: Ah, the guy that.
Yeah, that lost the train of thought.
[00:13:45] Speaker A: Then we got like, tonic, faithless, the offspring.

[00:14:38] Speaker A: No. 85. 85.
[00:14:41] Speaker B: 84. Close recorded in 84. So probably you could be right. 85 or 86. It would have appeared in Australia.
[00:14:51] Speaker A: Yeah, that was.
I send people with that video clip and I want to annoy them at work.
[00:15:03] Speaker B: Yeah.

[00:15:20] Speaker B: Actually, we're about. We're about due for another iteration of the clap clap song.
[00:15:25] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Some of the songs that get out and about.
We were talking on the weekly rap for pop rock radio on Sunday, and we do live reactions to songs. We get ten new songs off Amrap. If you don't know what mrap is, you know what mrap is?
[00:15:48] Speaker B: No.
[00:15:49] Speaker A: It's a strain music radio airplay project where people upload new indie artists, put their. Their music up there to be heard.
[00:15:57] Speaker B: So record an app or a song.
[00:16:00] Speaker A: It's a sort, but it's. You got to be a radio station to get access to it.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:16:05] Speaker A: So I dragged 1010 tracks off of there. I just go in there, I have a listen to the first couple of seconds.
If that captures me, I'll listen to the next 10 seconds, and if that's good, I'll add it to the list and we'll have ten songs. And there's one that's getting out. Claude Hay is the singer, so you're gonna google this one.
And it's called the funky shit.
So I'm walking around work to sing it. I'm. You are the. You are the funky shit. The funky shit.
[00:16:40] Speaker B: Claude Hay is a singer, songwriter and multi instruments mentalist from Australia.
[00:16:45] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:16:46] Speaker B: There's a three piece rock group band called hey and the Kung fu Mustard.
Yeah. Ex blues guy.
Okay. I'd have to listen to that.
[00:16:55] Speaker A: Yeah, it's good.
[00:16:57] Speaker B: I actually enjoyed when I was at the radio station in Rockingham when it became 101 FM.
And I'd do a few shifts there about breakfast shifts mostly. But they would.
The record companies would send you CDs, CD, singles, and just have a listen to these, have a listen to these. And the amount of artists that I actually ended up playing, probably the first in WA at my dj gig, going Rocheford is one I can remember when I heard lay your love on me, it's like, oh, I've got to start playing this at the pub.
Good days, you know, I reckon, um, Molly Meldrum, when he was fit and healthy and he was on countdown, you know, just people would have been sending him music, you know, box loads of music for him to listen to. Would have been awesome.
[00:17:46] Speaker A: Would have been crazy. Absolutely crazy.
We're not. We're just an Internet based radio station. And I kid you not. I get about.
I can get you know, some days I only get a couple between five and ten. But on other days I'll get about 20 emails of people sending stuff in saying please play this, please play this.
And it's crazy.
[00:18:15] Speaker B: I have to say, yeah, on Monday you get yesterday you. Because I was, I had pop rock radio on when I was working and it's like, okay, where did this nineties blitz come from? You went for about 2 hours in the afternoon. It was nothing but nineties. And mostly nineties dance music is like, is this paul just stirring me up for shits and giggles?
[00:18:39] Speaker A: I've got certain programs played but then there's a certain time period where I don't have any programs and I'll just let it pick random music.
[00:18:48] Speaker B: Do its own thing.
[00:18:48] Speaker A: Do its own thing. And we have eighties hour and we have nineties hour and then we have a lot of.
Every decade has an hour and then your new music and things like that. But sometimes you just get, I just get caught into it. I'll be at work and bang, bang. Do you, do you vote on the songs?
[00:19:10] Speaker B: No, I'm busy working on. I'm really kind of a, like I just keep going. I just listen to the songs and if I hear something and go, oh, I like that.
I'll go straight to apple Music and to my Apple music and download it for my library, you know.
[00:19:25] Speaker A: Yeah, I'll have to do a special owl's mix, get some music from it.
I've got that on there.
[00:19:32] Speaker B: Hey, actually I don't have that in my library. So let me just pull up a note pad and remind myself to download that.
I used to have the CD single. Yeah, roach bird lay your love on me.
[00:19:52] Speaker A: The other song.
[00:19:57] Speaker B: Oh, they had a couple, but that was their big one. I mean they were one hit one.
[00:20:02] Speaker A: They had a couple of hits.
[00:20:08] Speaker B: Once again, Internet comes to our rescue. Oh, could you imagine when we were younger just going, oh, you know, in a few years time you will have the whole world at your fingertips.
[00:20:17] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:20:18] Speaker B: You know, somebody asks you a question. Yeah, give me a second. I'm just gonna look this up. Yeah.
[00:20:26] Speaker A: I can't even find it.
[00:20:29] Speaker B: Albums. Albums. Doesn't say anything about singles. Here we go. Cuddly twine. No, no, no. So probably after lay your love on me, which is 95, only to be with me. I remember that.
[00:20:41] Speaker A: Only to be with you.
[00:20:41] Speaker B: Only to be with you. Yeah, only remember that one.
[00:20:46] Speaker A: Yeah, it's not even. I've got a.
Hold on a minute.
Because you got roach with the band and you got roach with the singer.
[00:20:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:20:58] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:21:03] Speaker B: Yeah. We could do it.
We could do a session of my music. But off, I've got about 17,000 songs in my library.
[00:21:11] Speaker A: Yeah. Yep.
[00:21:12] Speaker B: So it could take a while.
[00:21:14] Speaker A: Yeah, just pick the good ones.

Then we had 79 was face no more ashes to ashes.
[00:25:58] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:25:59] Speaker A: Danny, all I want to do.
I'm assuming that's Danny Mino, your charts.
[00:26:04] Speaker B: Crap, by the way.
[00:26:04] Speaker A: Paul cemetery, silver chair, blood on the dance floor, Michael Jackson, bloodhound gang fire water, boom.
Janet Jackson. So it's gone. Oh, God. Metallica and Mary Ann faithful, the memory remains at 73, abuse me, silver chair, 72 and remember me, blue boy 71 and around the world, duff punks, haven't he?
Ah, I'm gonna break.
[00:26:31] Speaker B: Driving song, actually. Around the world.
[00:26:34] Speaker A: Yeah, we got, um, got a few. And.
Sweet Symphony, 62, the verb Spice Girls 61, wannabe.
And this is when it starts getting better. This starts getting better here. Like one headlight, the wall flowers.
[00:26:53] Speaker B: Ah, yeah. When our band reformed for the birthday of one of the guys and it's like we never actually did this song when we were a band. But when we were rehearsing, basically the setup was the keyboard player. We were going to do a surprise birthday party for him. So we were going to rehearse all these songs.
His brother was going to do all the keyboard settings before Ian.
[00:27:21] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:27:22] Speaker B: And we'd go to this pub and he. And, yeah, it worked. He was led in, blindfolded and put behind the keyboard and the blindfold was taken off and he was like, he looked and he saw all his old band mates were sitting there and he. Yeah, his brother Robert had, you know, this is the keyboard settings and he knew all the songs and. But one of the songs we practiced was one headlight and we had so much fun doing it. But, yeah, the song didn't exist when we were a band, but so I love doing that song.
[00:27:54] Speaker A: Yeah. Did you ever have, like, a little Casio record? Casio keyboard when you were younger?
[00:28:01] Speaker B: Uh, didn't have. No, but I think Ian may have. No, Ian may have.
I had one of those Tonk, Tonk, Tonk. Little pianos. You know, they get to six year olds.
[00:28:13] Speaker A: Yeah. Now this one's getting better. From. From 60 onwards, it starts getting better.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Maybe. What have you got? Oh, okay. Um. Semi charmed life. Third eye blind.
[00:28:29] Speaker B: Yes. Skip a cup, semi chunk kind of life.
[00:28:32] Speaker A: Yeah. I'll skip a couple. Break me, shake me, savage garden, even when I'm sleeping. Leonardo's right.
So you. When you get there. Coolio.
[00:28:42] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. That is a classic trap.
[00:28:45] Speaker A: Yeah. Love. Full of the cardigans.
[00:28:48] Speaker B: I'll tell you a little story. Um, the. The actual tune to that is, uh, uh, pasha Bell's cannon in D.
Everybody uses. No. Um, Coolio. See you when you get there.
[00:29:00] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:29:01] Speaker B: And everybody uses passive Bell's cannon. Indeed. Because they don't have to pay anybody for it. It's out of copyright.
[00:29:08] Speaker A: Oh, cool.
[00:29:09] Speaker B: Pastor Bill died about 200 years ago.
[00:29:11] Speaker A: Yeah.
Yeah. So then we've got my money, my problems from Taurus Blg, and number 50, where I carry with honey, honey, honey.
What?
[00:29:23] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:29:26] Speaker A: Honey on my toes.
[00:29:28] Speaker B: Little.
Little bit of madness. Anyway, I have a question for you.
[00:29:33] Speaker A: I'm just going for mosquitoes and shit.
[00:29:36] Speaker B: What's the best concert you've gone to?
[00:29:38] Speaker A: Ah, I couldn't really say. I've been to a few big ones. I've been to a lot of small ones.
But I think the most profound one would have been chocolate starfish in Victor Harbour in South Australia.
[00:30:02] Speaker B: Okay, well, what did it for you?
[00:30:05] Speaker A: Just, um.
Just the showmanship. The. How good.
They're entertainers.
I'll tell you a story. Before I did that, before I went to that concert, because I actually got, um, paid to go to it, I was actually got, um, hired to be the roadie for the band that started that. Um. That opened for them. And they have to. So they have to supply a band, a roadie for the main band. So that was me. So I had to go and help set up for chalky Starfish. And I'll get them, see the show and the rest of it. But before that, I was recording a video for the band the Childs, which was the band that opened the chocolate Starfish. And, um, I record a video. We were recording one of their performances, and they were opening up for boom. Crash opera in Victor harbor. So we've taken the track down to harbor. We set up this big giant studio camera set up in the, in the, in the pub, club, whatever. And we're recording away and they probably won't ever remember this old. They'll never admit to it, but Dale Ryder and his manager come out and they're like, I hope you're not going to be recording us. I said, now I'm here to record the first band. They said, well, because if you're gonna record us, there's, you know, lots of legalities, paperwork, you gotta copyright. Said, you know, we had to record the first band. So they went off and went away. And then just as they underlast band finished, or that band finished, the child's finish, they come out, hey, how would you feel like recording us? Said, nah, sorry, mate, we've run out of tape.
I had heaps of. Anyway, I had heaps of tape.
[00:31:54] Speaker B: Yeah. You have to be brutal.
Can you do your thing, mate? Because I really need to visit the little boys room. So can we do that?
[00:32:03] Speaker A: What do I have to do?
[00:32:05] Speaker B: We'll reset.
[00:32:06] Speaker A: Oh, you go away. I'll do, um. I can, I can chat about something. What am I going to chat about?
[00:32:12] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:32:14] Speaker A: I'll bring up the screen. So we'll bring up this screen and we'll be back right back in a couple of seconds.
You can still hear me. It doesn't mute the audio. So if you're watching this purple screen, you're watching a pair of old jocks. Crispy, crunchy, but silky smooth and comfortable and well worn.
Maybe a little bit older than what you should be. But you've got your favorite pair of old jocks, haven't you? And that'll be us, Alan and Paul.
We're your favorite pair of old jocks.
Yes. Gotta make sure you put them on the right way now. You don't want to put your lucky jocks on backwards.
Hold on a second time for a sip of wine.
We could be here for a while because Alan being old, like a pair of old jocks, Alan, he could be a while in the toilet.
He might have a loose bladder. We'll never know. He's got his volume turned down. We can't hear him trickling. Trickle, trickle, trickle. Trick or treat.
Anyway, if you're hearing this transmission, it means we're in a break. Just a short break.
Yes, but it's still a break.
Why don't you just quickly duck off and grab yourself a glass of wine and some crackers maybe. What's your wine of choice?
I'm having a lovely glass of red right now. Here he comes. Here comes Alan.
I don't know if he can hear me, but Alan's back. So we got it back to our regular broadcast. Here he is.
You're back.
[00:33:57] Speaker B: I can hear you. Bastard. Now. I could hear you.
[00:34:00] Speaker A: Could you?
[00:34:01] Speaker B: I didn't take my ear. I didn't take me up.
It's like, what the hell?
It's Tuesday night. Who cares?
[00:34:10] Speaker A: Yeah, we're a daylight.
[00:34:11] Speaker B: I've always.
Yeah, but I've always wanted to do this. If you're watching on this on YouTube, don't forget to hit the notification button and click the like button for the algorithm.
[00:34:25] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:34:27] Speaker B: Do we have a notification bell? Do we have a notification bell?
[00:34:31] Speaker A: No. I can get one, though. I can put one in there. I'll have to next time. Yeah.
Yes.
[00:34:37] Speaker B: I think it's only you, me and our close family that's watching anyway. But who cares?
[00:34:43] Speaker A: Well, it's on all of the podcast streaming services on. It's on Spotify, it's on Google, on YouTube. Music. It's on YouTube.
It's. There's a whole heap of them that it's on.
And because I went to listen to it the other day and I got an ad.
Yes .03 of a cent.
[00:35:11] Speaker B: Well, mine actually came up because I like, you know, when I'm. When I'm not in the mood to watch a movie or a series or anything, I'll just. Yeah, we'll just fly through YouTube. And it actually flew it throughout their second episode. Put our second episode in my feed and it's like, beauty.
[00:35:32] Speaker A: There you go.
[00:35:33] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. But as I said, I can only watch five minutes because I like. Jesus, that bastard. You drank? Drunk, drunk.
[00:35:41] Speaker A: Sometimes they're the best ones. We did, um, on pop rock radio, we did a. Was one of our first live stream. I know. So we was trying something. We'll call it the Wednesday wine. And. Wine.
[00:35:53] Speaker B: Where would it.
[00:35:54] Speaker A: I'd drink a glass. I'd have a bottle of wine and we'd whine about shit. To sit there whining about what people have pissed us off and in the music industry and talk about Cardi Beast, Taylor Swift and the shit they do. And. And, yeah, I just started having a drink of wine and I think it was. It went for about nearly 3 hours.
I was just chatting away.
[00:36:14] Speaker B: Well, have you ever heard of Derek and Clive?
[00:36:18] Speaker A: Who?
[00:36:20] Speaker B: Derek and Clive.
[00:36:21] Speaker A: No.
[00:36:23] Speaker B: You have to look them up. No.
There was a couple of comedians, dudley Moore and Peter Cook.
Quite famous. And they used to do shows together, but just every, every so often they would just go into a studio and get as drunk as lords.
[00:36:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:36:42] Speaker B: And just do whatever came into their heads. You really seriously need to look up Derek and Clyde because he's the, the funniest comedy you will ever hear.
[00:36:51] Speaker A: You should have heard me going a second ago with the, with the screen over.
[00:36:54] Speaker B: I want. I had my Airpods in.
I'm covering up the microphone because I'm having a pee, and you're going, can you hear his dribbling? It's like, oh, I hope they can't.
I'm trying to go as quietly as possible, and it's like, oh, do I take the Airpods out? Do I know?
[00:37:13] Speaker A: Do I sit down? Do I stand up? Do I sit down?
[00:37:17] Speaker B: Yeah, that thought did cross my mind.
[00:37:19] Speaker A: I can't stop mid stream.
[00:37:26] Speaker B: Anyway, let's go, number 69. Let's go. By Wayne Chung.
[00:37:31] Speaker A: Oh, yeah.
[00:37:34] Speaker B: Bob Seger. Shakedown, shake down, take down. Yep. You 267, with or without you.
[00:37:41] Speaker A: Do you know what a 68 is?
[00:37:46] Speaker B: You're gonna tell me.
[00:37:47] Speaker A: No, you keep counting down. I just want to know if you knew what a 68 was.
[00:37:51] Speaker B: No, I don't, but I know what rule 64 of the Internet is. Is it rule 64?
I need to look this up before. I'm gonna look up my bit first, and then I'll look up a 68. It's got something to do with missing a 69.
[00:38:10] Speaker A: All right, has it?
I don't know, 64?
[00:38:15] Speaker B: No.
[00:38:16] Speaker A: 68. Nah.
[00:38:22] Speaker B: Rules of the Internet.
Unofficial rules.
No. It might be 44. Rule 44.
Rule.
Rule 34 of the Internet. Do you know what that is?
[00:38:41] Speaker A: No.
[00:38:43] Speaker B: If there is something. If there. If there is something, anything, you know, anything. Any subject you can think of.
[00:38:50] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:38:51] Speaker B: There will be a. There will be a website that has porn of it. That's rule 34 of the Internet.
[00:38:58] Speaker A: Can you imagine the porn of a pair of old jocks?
[00:39:03] Speaker B: There'll be. There'll be porn for it. Of course, it will probably be something to do with underwear and not ex DJ's, but. So what is a 68?
68 is the natural number following 67 and preceding 69. It is an even number.
Oh, what does 68 mean in slang?
[00:39:30] Speaker A: Does it have it?
[00:39:32] Speaker B: My mistake. I can't give a response to that right now. Let's try a different subject.
[00:39:38] Speaker A: Does it end with all? Are you one?
[00:39:42] Speaker B: Oh, oh, here we go, here we go. I think. I think I have a hit here. The 68 sexer. You do realize my daughter might be watching this later.
Um, the 68 sex position is like the 69, but less fun for one person.
[00:40:06] Speaker A: And that. They'll just owe you one later.
[00:40:11] Speaker B: Yeah, I like your one. I'll owe you one.
[00:40:15] Speaker A: You got a kidney senior, on your countdown?
[00:40:19] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Where was I? Um, causing a kill. Uh, who? Let's go, man. Shake down. Good thing. I'll read very quickly. Real world child. Iggy what? Iggy pop. Ah, the rage thing.
[00:40:30] Speaker A: Yeah. Is it Iggy Pop or. There's a few songs that could be.
[00:40:34] Speaker B: Hey, no, I'm a real wild child. No, it is definitely Iggy pop. Yeah.
[00:40:40] Speaker A: But some, like, some simple minds in others and.
[00:40:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:40:45] Speaker A: Cockroaches in there.
[00:40:49] Speaker B: Oh, cockroaches. The wiggles. Their first iteration.
[00:40:53] Speaker A: I got one of their twelve inch lp of this over there.
[00:40:58] Speaker B: You had me worried when you started with twelve inch.

[00:42:14] Speaker B: If you. If you ever actually watch their final gig at the. The opera house. Yeah. And they do. Don't. Don't dream it's over. And you can see that Paul Hester is. And you know. And you know that Paul Hester later on committed suicide, but you can see he's devastated that this is the last gig of crowded house. You can just see it.
[00:42:36] Speaker A: Yeah.
That was such a terrence when I was. Yeah.
[00:42:43] Speaker B: And yeah. So beyond blue lifeline. If you ever feel in that way.

The gig in Northam and somebody who was there, the gig went, oh, we're having a thing in two weeks time in York. And, you know, gee, to come. How much? And so went all the way to York, which is really hard because I only had a motorbike at that stage, so. But fortunately, my friend had a car and went. Went to York. And even though Northam and York are not that far apart, their tastes in music are so different. Or they were back when. Put it this way, it was that bad that halfway through my gig, somebody put the jukebox on.

And people saying, well, who signed blur to come to Coachella? But a few people did have the same thing. They're like, but Coachella, people forget that it's about the music. They all go there because they want to be influencers, and they wear next to nothing. And look at me, I'm at Coachella. But then they turn up.

[00:50:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:50:49] Speaker B: And it's just the weirdest thing. This, this English, this white english guy with a goatee, you know, wine shirts and it's.
[00:50:58] Speaker A: Want to sound too, um.
I don't want to sound like I'm starting anything, but it's too easy to mix. It's all slow.
There's hardly any.
[00:51:09] Speaker B: Oh, it's, um, it's 68 beats per minute or, you know, something like 60 beats a minute.
[00:51:15] Speaker A: You gotta.
[00:51:15] Speaker B: And it's the same rhythm. Yeah.
[00:51:17] Speaker A: You got 2 hours to try and get a mix going.
Yeah, we gotta go. The thing is, his name is I.
[00:51:26] Speaker B: Okay, sorry. Just with hip hop. So we'll paint the rhythm and blues. But with, with hip hop, I think it's all about the lyrics and the poetry. I mean, you listen to some of the hill, hilltop hood stuff and it's just amazing. And the music's okay.
[00:51:44] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:51:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Because it's, it's not really all about the music. It is about the poetry and the lyrics.
[00:51:51] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:51:52] Speaker B: See, for me, and then the story that they're telling.
[00:51:54] Speaker A: Yeah. For me, it's all about the base, the kick, the field.
Yeah.
[00:52:02] Speaker B: Well, to me, like, there was a club called the cloud.
It's an underground. It was actually underground, but it was, it was a hip hop r and B club. And I went there once and everybody there was having an absolutely fat time. But the. The rhythm and the beat just actually made me feel really uncomfortable.
It just felt violent.
But everybody was smiling and laughing.
[00:52:30] Speaker A: I reckon. I don't know. I'll just put this out there. This. It'll never happen. But you know how all these bands to go around to, what, the eighties, they. They come back and they rehash your old stuff? They're still touring on the old stuff. Maybe we could do a tour. A retro dj now.

[01:01:38] Speaker B: I still use Windows movie maker. I mean, it's old. It's. It's so old. It's got cobwebs.
[01:01:45] Speaker A: But you're still running Windows 95.
[01:01:51] Speaker B: Look into my eye.
[01:01:56] Speaker A: The best version of Windows was Windows 3.11.
[01:02:01] Speaker B: And not XP. Not Xp.
[01:02:04] Speaker A: 3.1 was a big fan. Was Windows nt before it was Windows nt.
[01:02:10] Speaker B: Oh yeah, yeah.
[01:02:11] Speaker A: So 3.11 had all the, all the bells and whistles on it. Oh, so I remember going back, this is back in 94, I want to build a compute when I had some money, when it said to this computer shop, so I want to build a computer. I actually went into one store and bought a computer. They wanted to sell me a 286. And the only issue was it's from what? Tandy Electronics, you remember them? And it couldn't be upgraded. No, don't want that. I want something better. So they sold me a 386 and Pentium, went 286386, 486, 686 with their chips.
And the joke was on pension because the 586 had a, had an error when it calculated micro numbers. It would miscalculate so you couldn't use it for cat or anything. So the joke was they went, what do they call it, a 686 is because pension books can't count.
But I went in there. Yeah, I went in and bought a computer. I went to anyone, long story short, I got rid of the one that Tandy sold me. I went to a computer store and I built this thing and it was a 486.
And I said to the guys working at it, said, we've got no, but this is back in 94, 95, so we've got no budget.
I want a computer that can have multiple video inputs, multiple video outputs, multiple video audio ins and audio outs and built it. And I had this thing, this computer, and I had software running on it that I got it all for free.
But now people are buying the same software, but they're paying premium dollars for it. And I could do more with this computer in 95 than what most computers can do now on what they get now because of the software and the hardware I had set up. And yeah, now people go, I just, just use this, just use that. I'm like, well, you can't do half the shit on it.
You might have all the memory.
[01:04:09] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm the same Paul. I've still got my original tower that I built and I researched and I got the motherboard I wanted, I got the cards of the vid cards I wanted, I've got the sound cards I wanted, got the hard drive I wanted.
And you know, I, this was back in the day, people running about 4k, you know, and the motherboard I got is like, yeah, you could just stick the sticks of ram into it. So I had eight k of Ram, you know, and that was back when nobody had that, so. And it's still a monster. Apart from the fact that the vid cards and sound cards had died. I mean. Yeah, yeah. You couldn't get them anymore.
[01:04:46] Speaker A: All my kids now, they don't buy computers off the shelf.
I've taught them all how to build their own computers. They build their own computers, don't buy them off the shelf.
[01:04:56] Speaker B: It's easy. It all slots together.
[01:04:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:04:59] Speaker B: Anyway, carry on.
[01:05:00] Speaker A: 29. One more time.

[01:05:45] Speaker B: Slippers under my bed anytime she likes.

[01:07:59] Speaker A: What else? DJ in Kalgoorlie. That's all the keys. Hey, Dave Dobbin. Hey, Dave Dobbin.
And then you'd have all the Aussies.
[01:08:06] Speaker B: Going, but the herb. The herbs were really. Yeah, but the herbs were a big band in New Zealand.
[01:08:11] Speaker A: Yeah, we'd have the Kiwis gone. Play Dave Dobbin. Play Dave Dobbin. Then you have the Aussies going, play butler Trio. Play the butler trio.
[01:08:20] Speaker B: Right. Number.
[01:08:21] Speaker A: Sorry, John. John Butler Trio.
[01:08:24] Speaker B: John Butler Trio. Yeah, I got who you mean. So this is a re entry. Old time rock and roll. Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet band. So that would have been risky business. I'm thinking that's how that would have got back in at number two. I love doing this song at karaoke, Los Lobos. Can you remember what song it was?
I don't speak any Spanish.
All right, that's number two.
[01:08:56] Speaker A: All right. Number ten for me was break my stride. Unique to breathe. Breathe. The prodigy don't speak, no doubt. Truly, madly, deeply. Savage garden. Number six was men in black, Will Smith for the third time. Hanson. M bop. Oh, sorry.

[01:09:36] Speaker A: And then number two is Barbie girl. Aqua.
[01:09:42] Speaker B: All right, you ready for the video?
[01:09:44] Speaker A: Did you hear what happened to Aqua when they toured just recently?
[01:09:48] Speaker B: No, because she doesn't sing in that voice anymore. She does, actually, really serious music. But anyway.
[01:09:53] Speaker A: But they, um.
She had, like, a breakdown.
Um.
[01:10:01] Speaker B: Artists are slightly mad.
[01:10:03] Speaker A: Yeah. But, um.
Len, is it? Lenny Nistrom, is that. Yeah, she had, um.
[01:10:09] Speaker B: Lena.
[01:10:10] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, she had the breakdown.
She had. I wouldn't say it's a breakdown. She was. She was having issues with her audio.
[01:10:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:10:21] Speaker A: And they went off stage halfway through the show in Perth here. And they can't. She come back in her pajamas.
And then over the east, people were just shit canning their shows. They reckon that crap. They wanted their money back, I reckon it was.
[01:10:36] Speaker B: Yeah, because they want. They. They wanted to hear Barbie. Barbie girl and Doctor Jones and all that sort of thing. Acquies, actually, moved on from there. They're actually doing. They've been doing serious music for a lot longer than they've been doing the novelty music, so. Yeah, I get it. I get it. They would have been wanting the classic songs and she's like, well, no, have a listen to my new music. A lot of artists do that.
[01:10:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:10:59] Speaker B: But anyway, shall we round it out?
[01:11:01] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:11:02] Speaker B: My number one, it's gonna be.
[01:11:04] Speaker A: I reckon your number one is gonna be shitloads better than my number one.
[01:11:09] Speaker B: It launched a career, I can tell ya.
[01:11:12] Speaker A: Yeah, well, this one probably ended a.
[01:11:13] Speaker B: Career, but the locomotion. Locomotion. Kylie.
[01:11:19] Speaker A: Okay, Carly, winner, Logie.
Which version of Locomotion? What version of Locomotion was it?
[01:11:28] Speaker B: That was her original one. Ah, no, it wasn't an original song. It was.
[01:11:32] Speaker A: No, no. Which version of which version of hers?
[01:11:36] Speaker B: She had two versions of it in 1987. It would have been the original version. The original one.
[01:11:44] Speaker A: There's two versions when she released it. Yep.
[01:11:48] Speaker B: Because if, say, I only knew the version that was on the video. Yeah.
[01:11:52] Speaker A: What happened? I'm pretty. I'm a hundred percent certain of it. You can. You can google this to prove me wrong. But she had locomotion, which was her first, I think was her first hit. First number one.
[01:12:05] Speaker B: But it was. It was her first it.
[01:12:07] Speaker A: The first time they released it, it flopped.
New record label remixed it and then it was successful.
[01:12:17] Speaker B: Yeah, we're stockholiken and what. I'm. In her version. Yeah. The person I used to play was a stock Aiken and Waterman version, but.
[01:12:23] Speaker A: They'Re both her vert. She sung both versions. Yeah, yeah. And it was like. Yeah, she.
There's two. She did two versions, but my number one was Elton John. Something about the way. Candle 97.

And they reverse. They reversed all the decisions, which was good.
[01:13:17] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. I did a big mix, actually. A dance mix of just mixing all these songs. I use a program called Sound Blaster and I've still got it. It's really quite good.
[01:13:26] Speaker A: I love.
[01:13:26] Speaker B: So I uploaded Soundcloud yeah, I uploaded it to soundcloud. And. And, yeah, within a week it was like I got a notification saying, no, you can't do that.
