  S1: A listener production to cuddly boys overloading the bromance quota meter.
• 0:08
  S2: They're so cute.
• 0:09
  S1: It's Matt and Alex. All day. Breakfast.
• 0:12
  S3: Well, yes. Alex Dyson is here. Had a weekend in
• 0:16
  S3: the sun at the beach in sunny Warrnambool. But I'm
• 0:19
  S3: hoping that out of the ashes of the cyclone. Alfred,
• 0:25
  S3: do we have a Matt Okine?
• 0:27
  S4: Oh, man. I gotta tell you, I. I was not
• 0:31
  S4: loving the weekend at all. I've got plenty, plenty to
• 0:34
  S4: update you on, but I think for now, just to
• 0:36
  S4: begin the show with something a little bit lighter. Let's
• 0:39
  S4: all give a big shout out to National Meatball Day.
• 0:42
  S3: Oh well, you'd think we're not talking about weather, but
• 0:45
  S3: ever since the film cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
• 0:47
  S3: came out, that is very weather based. No shout outs
• 0:50
  S3: to anyone celebrating. I think National Meatball day in the States. Matt,
• 0:55
  S3: you are. You're a big fan of the meatball.
• 0:58
  S4: I, I don't have enough, to be honest. They. I
• 1:03
  S4: tried to get Sophia onto it, but she doesn't like it.
• 1:05
  S4: But then if she has spaghetti with mints, she likes that.
• 1:10
  S4: And I'm like, kid, it's the same thing. It's just
• 1:13
  S4: one is just bunched up together, like, come on.
• 1:16
  S3: Yeah, but you, you do know the same way that
• 1:19
  S3: brown M&Ms taste worse than the other colors. Um, the
• 1:23
  S3: color and shape of things, Matt affects the flavor. That's
• 1:27
  S3: why red cars go faster. It's the UN universal truths
• 1:31
  S3: of our time.
• 1:32
  S4: Oh, well. Shout out to everyone enjoying our National Meatball Day.
• 1:36
  S4: Let's dive into some recaps about the wild weather across
• 1:40
  S4: the weekend. This is Matt and Alex all day breakfast.
• 1:41
  S4: Hope you're having a good one.
• 1:42
  S5: Let's get this show on the road.
• 1:44
  S6: Let's go. Here we go. Here we go, here we go.
• 1:47
  S7: Gotta tell you, I was glued to.
• 1:49
  S3: The algorithm that was showing the sand washing away on
• 1:53
  S3: the Gold Coast beach. Nice. And. Yeah, just feeling scared
• 1:58
  S3: for everyone I knew on the Gold Coast, including Annalise's
• 2:00
  S3: mum and brother living up there. We were getting updates.
• 2:03
  S3: Matt Okine but you were living it in the. In
• 2:06
  S3: the heart of Brissy I guess. Saturday. Finally a good
• 2:10
  S3: excuse not to go look at properties. Um, but tell
• 2:13
  S3: us how. How did you go?
• 2:16
  S4: Mate, I did feel sorry for anyone who was planning
• 2:18
  S4: on buying or selling a house this weekend. I know
• 2:20
  S4: that there's much more things to, you know, bigger things
• 2:23
  S4: to worry about.
• 2:24
  S3: But with the auctions cancelled on Saturday, everything seemed to
• 2:27
  S3: be shutting. What was going on?
• 2:28
  S4: I reckon you could have picked up a bargain if
• 2:31
  S4: you did like it was. It was. Only the bravest.
• 2:35
  S4: Would have been putting their hand up for that, and
• 2:37
  S4: then you would have had to deal with the fact
• 2:38
  S4: that there was a chance that the roof on the
• 2:40
  S4: house that you just bought was gonna disappear.
• 2:43
  S3: Yeah. Going, going, gone. When it comes to the roof
• 2:46
  S3: of the property you're bidding on. Um, so how how
• 2:50
  S3: fast did the winds get? How much rain was falling
• 2:52
  S3: on you? How did the family go in these tricky circumstances, Matt?
• 2:55
  S4: Well, look, it's no secret that Cyclone Alfred was a
• 2:58
  S4: bit of a one minute man on his first appearance. And,
• 3:02
  S4: you know, it was a very quick little play with, with,
• 3:07
  S4: with Brisbane and then and then it was over and
• 3:09
  S4: everyone sort of thought, oh, is that it? Is that
• 3:11
  S4: all you got? But I tell you what, he went
• 3:14
  S4: hard uh, on Sunday like it was pouring for like
• 3:20
  S4: 12 hours straight. There was water like pouring underneath our house,
• 3:26
  S4: pouring in from the neighbour's side. Our pool is absolutely
• 3:30
  S4: disgusting because there's this sort of piece of land that
• 3:33
  S4: they're building a house on a couple of doors up,
• 3:35
  S4: and it's just red dirt, and all of that dirt
• 3:39
  S4: is now at the bottom of our pool there. Like
• 3:42
  S4: I had the broom out. I was sweeping water away
• 3:45
  S4: from the from underneath the house. It was it was
• 3:48
  S4: so stressful, man. Like I because I tell you what,
• 3:51
  S4: I have lived, I have lived the last 17 years
• 3:55
  S4: not owning a home and not owning the home that
• 3:57
  S4: I lived in. And so I've lived in a unit
• 4:00
  S4: these things have never like it's never affected me.
• 4:03
  S3: Body corporate. Sort that out.
• 4:05
  S4: Yeah, exactly. And now it's like I'm the body corporate.
• 4:09
  S4: It's so stressful. Like suddenly you're realizing how things can
• 4:12
  S4: just disappear in a second and and. Yeah, so I
• 4:16
  S4: didn't I didn't enjoy it one bit. We we disconnected
• 4:19
  S4: all the gas and everything, um, for the last couple
• 4:22
  S4: of days. So we're only cooking on a barbecue, and
• 4:24
  S4: that's pretty pointless when there's 60ml of rain tumbling down
• 4:28
  S4: on you at all times. We've got pots of water
• 4:31
  S4: on the stove just in case the water cuts out.
• 4:35
  S4: Belinda's mum in Ballina has been without power for two
• 4:39
  S4: days a day and a half, so we don't know
• 4:41
  S4: whether everything in the fridge is going to go. It's
• 4:44
  S4: like it's it's the uncertainty. Alex Dyson that is the problem.
• 4:48
  S3: Goodness me. Yeah. So you you didn't lose power in
• 4:52
  S3: your suburb in in Brissy.
• 4:54
  S4: No, there's some people did and some people didn't. and
• 4:57
  S4: that's why we were kind of on edge. We had
• 4:58
  S4: all this food in the freezer. We're like delegating, okay?
• 5:01
  S4: If the power goes, we're starting with the homemade sausage rolls.
• 5:05
  S4: They got frozen a few weeks ago. We're moving on
• 5:08
  S4: to the spag bol. The mince is going to be
• 5:11
  S4: the last one to get turned into a burger. We
• 5:13
  S4: don't know what we're getting, so.
• 5:15
  S3: Flat and round is okay for mince but spherical like
• 5:19
  S3: a globe?
• 5:20
  S4: Yes.
• 5:21
  S3: That's the Sophia.
• 5:22
  S4: But um. But no. And also we you know, it
• 5:25
  S4: was Belinda's birthday on Friday, so we had this, um,
• 5:28
  S4: dinner planned with, with a couple of friends in the Valley,
• 5:32
  S4: which was this. I talked about it before on the podcast,
• 5:35
  S4: but it's like a six seater special little Japanese restaurant,
• 5:38
  S4: invite only.
• 5:39
  S3: Yeah, I remember you mentioning that.
• 5:41
  S4: We made the booking in October, but of course, Saturday
• 5:45
  S4: night rolls around and they're like, look, we we can
• 5:49
  S4: be open if you want. And we were like, we
• 5:53
  S4: are friends live in a flood zone. So they weren't
• 5:56
  S4: they weren't really amped at the idea of going into
• 5:59
  S4: dinner while their house could end up, you know, halfway
• 6:02
  S4: under water. Plus, our babysitter for the night had to
• 6:05
  S4: drive 40 minutes from the coast coastal area, so she
• 6:09
  S4: wasn't exactly jumping out of her boots to come and
• 6:13
  S4: look after Sophia while we're eating is, you know, ten
• 6:16
  S4: course meal. So we had to cancel it. But the
• 6:18
  S4: good news is we have a new reservation. Belinda's birthday
• 6:22
  S4: dinner will now be in August, so that's exciting. We.
• 6:25
  S4: We've gotten.
• 6:26
  S3: Well.
• 6:27
  S4: Just a little six month delay. That's fine.
• 6:29
  S3: Well, it sounds like I was somewhat similar to the
• 6:32
  S3: position I found myself in, where a lot of the
• 6:34
  S3: rumor mill was heating up last week that Prime Minister
• 6:37
  S3: Anthony Albanese would call the Australian election this weekend to
• 6:42
  S3: make it an April election with, you know, and it's
• 6:45
  S3: obviously good looking after the people of Queensland, our fellow Australians,
• 6:48
  S3: and concentrating on that and not distracting it with, you know,
• 6:50
  S3: this bloody popularity contest that comes around every three years,
• 6:54
  S3: going to push that back a bit longer. That means
• 6:56
  S3: the campaign Meadow keen are rebooking once again the ten
• 7:00
  S3: course menu.
• 7:00
  S4: You've got to keep doing it. But do you know
• 7:03
  S4: what was so annoying to me? Like there's all this
• 7:06
  S4: discussion about how this cyclone was man made. Was there?
• 7:10
  S4: And that I think.
• 7:11
  S3: Like we.
• 7:11
  S4: We have you not.
• 7:13
  S3: Go along with different internet forums. Matt Okine when it comes.
• 7:16
  S4: Have you not heard about this? People people are genuinely
• 7:20
  S4: on Facebook claiming that this cyclone was man made by
• 7:25
  S4: the US for some reason, right? But it also goes
• 7:29
  S4: into cahoots with the idea that the Australian government is
• 7:32
  S4: using it as a political tactic, and that they were
• 7:36
  S4: working in the pockets of, of Bom, the Bureau of Meteorology. Right.
• 7:42
  S3: Oh, boy.
• 7:42
  S4: How I got to tell you, if you do get in,
• 7:46
  S4: you know, elected to the seat of Wannon. Can you
• 7:49
  S4: give us a few months of sunshine, please, if that's
• 7:52
  S4: the power that you've got as an elected politician in
• 7:56
  S4: this country?
• 7:57
  S3: Yeah. Getting the weather machine up and going. We could
• 8:00
  S3: give the farmers a bit more rain down here if
• 8:02
  S3: I was doing that one. Goodness. Um. Look.
• 8:05
  S4: So.
• 8:06
  S3: Yeah, it's it's a stressful time. People would be stressed
• 8:09
  S3: in many different ways. And I'm very glad that you
• 8:11
  S3: are safe and sound. And the family is safe and sound.
• 8:14
  S3: Matt Okine. A very difficult time for southern Queensland and
• 8:18
  S3: northern New South Wales people.
• 8:20
  S4: Yes, yes, we are bone dry, safe and sound. But
• 8:23
  S4: I want to hear what you got up to over
• 8:26
  S4: the weekend. So let's dive into it. Hey.
• 8:29
  S8: La la la la la la la la la la
• 8:32
  S8: la la la. Yeah.
• 8:34
  S3: I started a new job on the weekend.
• 8:36
  S4: No. All right, come on. Let me let me add it.
• 8:40
  S3: Well, it sort of started with an old job. An
• 8:43
  S3: old job back in the day of, um, emceeing at
• 8:46
  S3: music festivals because a ripper music festival here in south
• 8:50
  S3: west Victoria, the Port Fairy Folk festival. Absolutely iconic weekend
• 8:56
  S3: every year um, was happening, was lucky enough to go
• 8:59
  S3: along and got given the task. Matt Okine to introduce
• 9:02
  S3: the one and only Missy Higgins.
• 9:05
  S4: Oh my god.
• 9:05
  S3: Stage.
• 9:07
  S4: Queen.
• 9:07
  S3: I know, and it's a second trip to the southwest
• 9:10
  S3: recently because she popped up with G flip at the
• 9:12
  S3: triple J one night stand down in Warrnambool last year. Okay,
• 9:16
  S3: now back in Port Fairy, which was so sick. Um,
• 9:20
  S3: absolutely smashing it. Can you believe like Sound of White
• 9:23
  S3: came out 20 years ago?
• 9:25
  S4: Yeah. Belinda went to the, um, that that the 20
• 9:28
  S4: year storytelling session of it.
• 9:31
  S3: Really? How was that?
• 9:32
  S4: Oh, I loved it. Loved every single second of it.
• 9:34
  S4: She was talking all about, you know, some of the classics, um,
• 9:37
  S4: the special two, you know, talking about what that song
• 9:40
  S4: was about. Uh, yeah. Though there was some really good
• 9:42
  S4: stories coming out of it. I was very jealous.
• 9:44
  S3: The brilliant thing about emceeing, and I recommend anyone else
• 9:47
  S3: go into it, people remember always remember you did a
• 9:51
  S3: really good job the less that you do, um, the
• 9:55
  S3: quicker you go from lights going down and Missy Higgins
• 9:59
  S3: coming on. The better. Oh, he did a great job. Like,
• 10:02
  S3: I could just walk out and say Missy Higgins and
• 10:05
  S3: then walk off. And people were like, brilliant.
• 10:07
  S4: Yeah. No one. No one's there to hear you. They
• 10:09
  S4: want Missy.
• 10:10
  S3: Exactly right. So that was wonderful. But I did start
• 10:14
  S3: a new job as well the next night because finally,
• 10:19
  S3: after months of getting boxes ticked, photos checked off, bank
• 10:26
  S3: accounts and things and everything, I did my first ever
• 10:32
  S3: shift as an Uber driver.
• 10:35
  S4: Did you really?
• 10:38
  S3: Yep.
• 10:38
  S4: Now, is this in response? Is this somewhat of a
• 10:42
  S4: boycott of the taxis as well? Is this why you
• 10:46
  S4: did that? Because. No, no, I saw.
• 10:48
  S3: It is awful.
• 10:50
  S4: Story. Awful story that came out of Adelaide with a
• 10:53
  S4: taxi driver and, um, and a Aussie radio host, Ali Clarke,
• 10:58
  S4: who got some terrible things said to her by her
• 11:01
  S4: taxi driver because she wanted to go a short fare
• 11:04
  S4: and he refused. So he was telling her to get
• 11:06
  S4: out of her car and then telling her it's really,
• 11:09
  S4: honestly awful stuff. He's since been fired, but I've got
• 11:13
  S4: to tell you, it keeps happening. I don't know, I
• 11:16
  S4: don't know how many stories need to keep coming out
• 11:18
  S4: until the actual industry gets a wake up call.
• 11:22
  S3: Well, I yeah, I mean, it's quite short trips around Waterville,
• 11:26
  S3: so I wasn't making absolute bank, but I went down,
• 11:29
  S3: found my first people, picked them up, go for a
• 11:32
  S3: bit and then I had to they asked the question,
• 11:35
  S3: how long have you been doing this? And I'm like, well,
• 11:37
  S3: I'm going to be honest with you guys. This is
• 11:38
  S3: my very first one. And they all went, hey, it
• 11:40
  S3: was like two parents and two kids who were in
• 11:42
  S3: Warrnambool for a tennis tournament. We had a great chat
• 11:45
  S3: as we went around, so that was good. I dropped
• 11:46
  S3: him at the at the wait.
• 11:48
  S4: Wait wait wait wait wait, why are you doing this?
• 11:51
  S4: Is this just to meet people?
• 11:53
  S3: It's two pronged. Um, running as an independent. I mean,
• 11:57
  S3: it's a it's a 12 month thing I'm doing for $0.
• 12:00
  S3: You know, because I think it'll be, um, I think
• 12:04
  S3: it'll be good for the area and the country having
• 12:07
  S3: independence in parliament. But you do have to a lot
• 12:10
  S3: of a lot of meat, a lot of people, and
• 12:12
  S3: spend a lot of time. I'm like, well, maybe I
• 12:13
  S3: could combine meeting people with, you know, getting six bucks
• 12:18
  S3: to drop them at the pub. So now I got
• 12:21
  S3: to tell you and I got to tell you, it
• 12:22
  S3: is a game changer, man. The amount of people I
• 12:26
  S3: met are really nice. And particularly, you know, it's usually
• 12:29
  S3: with these kind of things. It's younger people on the apps.
• 12:32
  S3: So I met a couple of dudes going somewhere. He's like, oh,
• 12:35
  S3: can you drop my mate here and then take me
• 12:36
  S3: to the pub? I can pay you cash afterwards. I'm like, bro,
• 12:38
  S3: just don't worry about it. I'll just it's on my
• 12:40
  S3: way home. I'll drop you. He's like, thanks so much, man.
• 12:43
  S3: And he found out I'm running for Parliament. And it's
• 12:44
  S3: that thing where, like, I drop him off and he
• 12:46
  S3: just go into the pub because he's meeting friends, so
• 12:49
  S3: he'll go like, oh, guess who just dropped me off
• 12:51
  S3: and tell the friends like.
• 12:52
  S4: Hey.
• 12:53
  S3: So dude.
• 12:54
  S4: This is unbelievable.
• 12:55
  S3: This is this is my new hobby. And it's like exciting. Like,
• 12:59
  S3: when the thing goes off, you're like, oh, there's a ride.
• 13:01
  S3: So I like, press the thing and I go, I
• 13:03
  S3: go and pick him up, which was great. But, um,
• 13:05
  S3: I was like, I'll do one more because it was
• 13:08
  S3: just around Warrnambool. It's like 5 or 6 minutes to
• 13:10
  S3: go different places. But then there was one person trying
• 13:12
  S3: to find them, like I called him because I couldn't
• 13:14
  S3: find where they were, like, oh, we're at the bottle shop.
• 13:16
  S3: And I went around to the bottle shop and I
• 13:17
  S3: picked up the two drunkest people in Australia. A daughter
• 13:23
  S3: and a mum that had been at a hen's party.
• 13:26
  S3: And the it was the most entertaining. And like, I
• 13:31
  S3: was like, oh, this could go south because like, oh,
• 13:33
  S3: we've lost our thing. We had the bottles, it's in
• 13:35
  S3: the dark. They got the phone cameras on. I was like,
• 13:37
  S3: can you put on some music? Put on Dom Dolla?
• 13:39
  S3: And I'm like, I'm like, oh, here we go. And
• 13:42
  S3: then I go, Hey Siri, play Dom Dolla miracle maker.
• 13:45
  S3: And they're like, you know, the song? And then they
• 13:47
  S3: were gone 20 minutes out of town. So I drove
• 13:49
  S3: him 20 minutes out of town and dropped him off. And, um, yeah,
• 13:53
  S3: it was just quite an entertaining evening, really.
• 13:57
  S4: Now, now, just out of interest, how did you how
• 14:00
  S4: much money did you make?
• 14:02
  S3: All right. I've done a total of ten trips, and
• 14:04
  S3: I have made $105.97 in an evening. Ten trips.
• 14:10
  S4: And when did you finish? When did you wrap up
• 14:12
  S4: for the night?
• 14:13
  S3: Um, I got home about 11:15, I think, because after
• 14:15
  S3: that one I'm like, oh, it could be diminishing returns
• 14:18
  S3: here because 100 bucks us. I don't know how much
• 14:21
  S3: a steam clean to get a bit of vomit out
• 14:23
  S3: of the out of the Uber is. But if all
• 14:27
  S3: if if I took one more, I'd just lost it all.
• 14:30
  S4: You you stood on the edge of the WWE rink
• 14:33
  S4: and took one look and turned around and went back inside.
• 14:36
  S4: They Undertaker hadn't even come out yet.
• 14:40
  S3: But it was really, really great. Everyone was really nice.
• 14:43
  S3: So just keep an eye out for me on the, uh,
• 14:44
  S3: the roads of Warrnambool. If you need a lift somewhere.
• 14:47
  S9: Order up.
• 14:54
  S10: Just how you like it. Perfect.

  S11: Click click click click click click click.
• 15:03
  S1: Fish. Click fish.
• 15:04
  S7: Yes.
• 15:05
  S3: Producer James back for a little bit of click fish.
• 15:08
  S3: I mean Matt and I have told us told everyone
• 15:11
  S3: about our weekends. James. But what did you get up
• 15:14
  S3: to over the last couple of days?
• 15:16
  S4: Uh, I've.
• 15:16
  S12: Got a new hobby in my late 30s. I'm brewing
• 15:20
  S12: my own kombucha.
• 15:21
  S4: Oh, wow.
• 15:23
  S3: On the booch.
• 15:24
  S12: On the booch.
• 15:25
  S4: How do you. How do you start, mate?
• 15:26
  S3: Oh, I've seen someone's kombucha. And the scoby gives me nightmares.
• 15:31
  S3: That's all I'll.
• 15:32
  S4: Say.
• 15:33
  S12: The scoby is funky, I gotta say. Uh, so it's
• 15:37
  S12: similar to, you know, your sourdough. You have a starter,
• 15:40
  S12: you buy the Scoby, which is, you know, where all
• 15:42
  S12: the good bacteria comes from. You chuck that in a
• 15:45
  S12: big jar.
• 15:46
  S3: It's like a floppy, white creamy, congealed blob of bacteria
• 15:51
  S3: that you put in the jar.
• 15:52
  S12: Yeah.
• 15:53
  S4: And their hotels, aren't they? You have Scoby hotels a scoby.
• 15:56
  S4: Sounds like something you need to show your doctor. You
• 15:58
  S4: know what I mean? It's like you should like. It
• 16:00
  S4: should be like, hey, bro, you need to get that
• 16:02
  S4: Scoby checked out. That's not good.
• 16:04
  S12: Yeah. It's not it's not the nicest thing to look at,
• 16:07
  S12: I gotta say. And there's a fine line of like,
• 16:10
  S12: am I doing this right? Or is this growing, like, mold?
• 16:13
  S12: You know, I'm keeping an eye on it. I'm not
• 16:15
  S12: too sure, but I've bottled my first batch, so that's
• 16:18
  S12: in the fridge, ready to go. It's fizzing up, so
• 16:21
  S12: it's it's good. I think I've had a bit of
• 16:23
  S12: a taste. I think it's I think it's good for
• 16:25
  S12: a first batch.
• 16:25
  S3: And what flavours are you chucking in with the Scoby
• 16:29
  S3: in the jar?
• 16:30
  S12: Got a bit of a tropical one to start with.
• 16:33
  S12: I bought a premade flavour kit so that's all. All good.
• 16:37
  S12: So yeah, it's kind of a a tropical vibe.
• 16:40
  S4: Well, I look forward to you. You know, launching your
• 16:44
  S4: own wellness channel on Instagram. I'm very, very excited.
• 16:48
  S3: Keep it eye out. Well, alongside that, James, you have
• 16:51
  S3: been trying to find the worst clickbait article in the
• 16:53
  S3: week that we dare not click on, but actually kind
• 16:56
  S3: of attempted to. What did you uncover?
• 16:58
  S12: Yeah. So this one for this week is man who
• 17:02
  S12: broke the record for time spent in world's quietest room,
• 17:06
  S12: reported experiencing several horrifying side effects.
• 17:11
  S3: I've heard about these quiet rooms, and it does sound
• 17:15
  S3: a bit scary because it's so quiet in there. Like,
• 17:19
  S3: you make a noise and you can't hear it because
• 17:20
  S3: it just goes like the walls dead in it so quick.
• 17:23
  S3: You've just got the sound of like, your blood going
• 17:26
  S3: through your head or something. It can send you insane.
• 17:30
  S3: First of all.
• 17:31
  S4: I guess pounding.
• 17:32
  S3: Before we guess what the side effects are. Can you
• 17:35
  S3: tell us how long he lasted to get that world record? James?
• 17:38
  S12: Yes. So this guy is Callum McGinley. He's a YouTuber,
• 17:43
  S12: and the record he set was one hour and 26
• 17:47
  S12: minutes in the anechoic chamber. The previous record was set
• 17:51
  S12: in 2019 and that was 67 minutes. So you did
• 17:54
  S12: a pretty good job.
• 17:55
  S4: See, this is one of those things that doesn't sound
• 17:57
  S4: like it would be hard. Like, I truly feel like
• 18:00
  S4: I could do it. Yeah, but.
• 18:02
  S3: I've sat through terrible movies that have gone for 90
• 18:06
  S3: minutes and thought, I need to get out of this
• 18:08
  S3: so I at least could go 90 minutes. You'd hope.
• 18:11
  S4: What's his, what's his name and age again? What's his age?
• 18:14
  S12: Uh, I think he's in his 30s.
• 18:16
  S4: Okay. 30 year old guy, uh, spends a long time
• 18:19
  S4: in a silent room. I'm gonna guess the terrifying symptom
• 18:21
  S4: was he left and decided he didn't want to start
• 18:23
  S4: a podcast. That that was his the side effect. He
• 18:29
  S4: was like, silence is actually okay. I don't need to
• 18:32
  S4: share my opinion.
• 18:33
  S3: Um, I, I reckon I reckon I'd actually be able
• 18:36
  S3: to beat this dude because I've had a lot of training,
• 18:38
  S3: like the amount of medical comedy shows I've sat through.
• 18:42
  S3: Absolutely dead silence in the room.
• 18:46
  S4: Just the blood pulsing through your veins. It was horrifying.
• 18:53
  S3: That's all you could hear? Uh, no. Oh, is it like.
• 18:57
  S3: Is it painful to hear after, like, your ears adjusting
• 19:00
  S3: to that sort of thing afterwards?
• 19:02
  S4: Or does it, like, affect his sense of taste or
• 19:04
  S4: something weird like that? I don't know. What's the horror?
• 19:06
  S4: What's the horrifying side effect?
• 19:08
  S12: So he had a few things that happened to him.
• 19:10
  S12: You're kind of on the money. He had a burst
• 19:12
  S12: of extreme tinnitus in both ears, followed quickly by pressure
• 19:18
  S12: in his head, and had visions of lights flickering around
• 19:22
  S12: the room. But again, the other big thing he touched on,
• 19:26
  S12: which I think you're you're right about, is that he
• 19:27
  S12: said he could hear his own blood running through his body,
• 19:31
  S12: but at first he actually thought it was the sound
• 19:34
  S12: of the London Underground because he was in a chamber in,
• 19:37
  S12: in London. Um, but it was actually the blood rushing
• 19:41
  S12: through his head.
• 19:42
  S3: Oh, boy.
• 19:43
  S4: I mean, all the other symptoms, they're they're similar to
• 19:46
  S4: what it's like being me at one of my gigs
• 19:48
  S4: as well. Just blinded by the lights. Sudden, like pressure
• 19:53
  S4: in the head, like, oh my God, what am I doing?
• 19:56
  S1: Ah.
• 19:58
  S4: Um. So yeah. No, we can relate. Um. All right. Well,
• 20:01
  S4: thank you very much, James. Hopefully he can. The gentleman who,
• 20:06
  S4: you know, broke that record could, uh, you know, leave
• 20:10
  S4: the chamber and do the first thing he wanted to
• 20:13
  S4: do with being able to hear again, which was listening
• 20:15
  S4: to him. Episode of Matt and Alex all day. Breakfast.
• 20:17
  S3: Yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what happened. So thank you
• 20:19
  S3: to you, Callum, for listening. And thank you to you,
• 20:22
  S3: not Callum for listening. I really appreciate you tuning in
• 20:25
  S3: for another edition of Matt and Alex All Day Breakfast.
• 20:27
  S3: We've got another big app for you tomorrow, so sit
• 20:30
  S3: tight and we'll see you then.
• 20:32
  S4: Bye bye.
• 20:33
  S1: That's it. The all day breakfast kitchen is closed. Got
• 20:36
  S1: something to add to the show? Slide into our DMs
• 20:39
  S1: at Matt and Alex.
