  SPEAKER_01: I think I had gout undiagnosed.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_07: Can you just explain what gout is for our listeners?
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I I think it's it's a build-up of something in your joint that pretty much old men get.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_07: So is it sore?
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_01: It's alright at the moment because I'm taking pills.

  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_01: But uh I actually heard it on a surfboard.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: And uh that's where it started, and then I think it turned into gout, which is just so funny because it's a proper old man's disease.

  SPEAKER_07: My Song of the Week is by someone called Solon Holt.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_07: He's like a kind of new artist in America.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_07: It's he's quite poppy, but he's actually supporting Megan Moroni at the moment, and his new song's so long, I'm like obsessed with it at the moment.
• 4:32
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_06: I'm just checking too.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_06: My song of the week is The Nutbush.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_07: The Nutbush.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_07: That's not even the name of the song.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_06: Is it actually Austin's city limits?
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_07: That's your song of the week.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_07: Have you been listening to the week?
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_06: Well, I thought we could do the dance.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_06: I thought we could do the dance now.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_06: No, maybe later.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_06: Later.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_01: Have you actually listened to that song this week?
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_06: Um no, you caught me out on that.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_01: 141.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_06: But Brad, it's only Wednesday.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_06: So long time.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_07: Are you gonna listen to it for the rest of the week?
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_07: No, I am.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_07: Brad, what's your song of the week?
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_01: Um I forgot what it's called.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_06: Happened to me all the time.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_01: Um Austin Mackay, same place, same time.
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_06: Oh is that his new romance one?
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I mean, I know he wrote it a while ago, but Austin's a great friend of mine.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_01: Taking him on the road a bunch over the years.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_01: But I've been fortunate enough to hear like 12 of his new songs that are unreleased, and they are all epic.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_01: He's um, I mean, I'm such a fan of him as a bloke, but his new music really feels like he's found his sound and somewhere between like Timeless Rock, the Eagles, and country music.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_01: And I mean, he's tall and handsome, and I really think he's gonna have a really good go in the next few years.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_07: I agree.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_07: I like his new song, is it Find the Light?
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_07: I think that's on his new album as well.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_07: Is that the one you're talking about?
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_01: No, this one, the same place at the same time, came out the same day as my song on Friday.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_01: But Find the Light was the one before that, yeah.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_07: Another, his uh ex-girlfriend has just released her first ever piece of music, and she's Unreal as well.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_01: Ella Ella Jones is her name, yeah.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_07: Unreal.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_07: I've been she's coming up a lot on my TikTok at the moment, and her voice is just like.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we we wrote, Austin and I and Ella wrote together in Nashville one day, and we got a really good song, and I spent a heap of time with Ella when we're over there.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_01: And um she's incredible, she's an incredible singer, and the songs that she's writing at the moment are really, really beautiful.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm looking forward to seeing what she's doing.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_01: She's just getting started too.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_01: She's put one song out and doing a bunch of shows with Busby Maroo and a couple other people, and yeah, she's a really good chick.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_07: But when you do a song right like that, how do you decide then who gets the song?
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_07: If you've just like gone together for the day and you've decided to write the song.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_01: Um I mean, there's sometimes there's a conversation about it.
• 6:52
  SPEAKER_01: And sometimes sometimes you ask for it, I suppose.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: But I mean, the one that we wrote was like it was kind of just implied that I was writing it for me.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_07: Um Do you kind of have that in the back of your mind when you're writing the song?
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_01: Like this is more something that you would put out versus if you're like, Yeah, and I think you can know pretty quickly, particularly someone like Austin and Ella and me, who we're all very different artists.
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_01: Like straight away when you s feel the vibe of the song, you can kind of see which direction it's it's going in, because I'm releasing very different music to Austin, who's releasing very different music to Elle.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: So um yeah, I mean, sometimes it's conversation, but a lot of times you just kind of know who's g who's gonna cut it if if it's ever gonna get cut too, you know.
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_06: Like so your sounds changed quite a bit, uh or you kind of moved in and out of of country and exploring different areas.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_06: What do you think is like pushing you in different sp places in terms of your?
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_01: So completely honestly, like I hadn't listened to country music in like five years.
• 7:55
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like legit.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_01: Someone goes, Oh, have you listened to Zach Top four years ago?
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_01: I was like, nah, I don't know who you're talking about.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_01: Been really inspired by like the 1975 and Sam Fender and Bruce Springsteen's early records, and you know, that was just what I was listening to.
• 8:08
  SPEAKER_01: I'm a massive fan of Gang of You that's having for a long time.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_01: And um I love I love the way that they write songs in that alternative rock world, and and I feel like I mean, as much as country music is very real and means a lot, when when dudes like Sam Fender write a like say a political song, and it's just done in a different way, and I've always been drawn to that, like that that I don't know, it's not emotion or intention, maybe is the right word in a song.
• 8:35
  SPEAKER_01: And um I really wanted to try and do my own flavour of that.
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_01: So that's that's how that last record kind of came about, and I think creatively I really needed to do it, you know.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_01: I had three country records, and and I mean there's still country songs in there, and I like I always said like it might sound a bit different, but it's still Brad Cox, it's still mine, and to be honest, like that record I'm so proud of it, it's my favourite record I've ever made.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_01: And I wrote songs in a really different way to what I had in previous um.
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_07: What is the process?
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_01: How does it change if you just in the way of just lyrically?
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_01: Just lyrically in the way of themes and the way that a song's structured.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_01: Um, country music can be very down the line, first chorus, first chorus.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_01: Um and just trying to do something a little bit differently felt really good.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um and then I mean now with this new song, it's almost kind of gone back parallel to the to the Acres record almost, you know, which feels good too.
• 9:30
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_01: But why?
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_01: Because I've been listening to that stuff again, you know.
• 9:33
  SPEAKER_01: I was listening to a George Strait record the other day and I fell in love with Zach Topp, who I just mentioned.
• 9:39
  SPEAKER_01: He was the only gig at the stadium that I went to at that CMA fest.
• 9:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't love big crowds.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_01: It really kind of makes me uncomfortable.
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but if I really want to go, I'll go and I really wanted to see him and so you liked him before CMA fest and then went to his yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_01: Like I'd listened to his records for the kind of few weeks beforehand and and um kind of understood what was going on.
• 10:00
  SPEAKER_07: How do you discover new music?
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_01: Like mate, honestly, if you don't tell me, I don't know.
• 10:05
  SPEAKER_06: Well, you're in the right place, but all we do is talk about new music, except for the nutbush.
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_06: Apologies for that one.
• 10:11
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, swing swinging, I miss it.
• 10:16
  SPEAKER_06: I panicked, I panicked.
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_01: No, honestly, though, because I'm not I'm not on social media, like I've never looked at TikTok in my life.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, really?
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_01: No, I've I've I don't have social media on my phone, I haven't done for probably four years now.
• 10:29
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so if you don't tell me about it, I don't know.
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_01: But what happens is when you do tell me about it, I'll rinse it.
• 10:35
  SPEAKER_01: If it's good, I'll I'll rinse it and get started.
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_07: So is that how you found people like Zach Topp?
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_07: Someone told you about him, and then you listen to it.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_01: Obviously, I kind of like you talking, you know what's going on.
• 10:44
  SPEAKER_01: I just hadn't sit down and listen to the albums, you know.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_01: And I listen to albums, like someone tells me a song, I'll find what record it's on and listen to the whole and you listen to it from start to finish.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely, because I make albums like that, yeah, you know, and I think I think we've lost that as consumers for a while.
• 10:58
  SPEAKER_01: But I've I've also heard the kids coming back to it.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_01: Like there's people a lot younger than us that have never listened to an album that are realizing that it's a body of work, and I think it might be coming back.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_02: Especially with vinyl, like people it's becoming trendy to have record players again, yeah.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely, yeah, it's definitely all of those things are are helping, you know, because you can't very easily just skip to song number three.
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_07: I'm just so bad I always press shuffle.
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_07: I like like being surprised by the song rather than like knowing the order, if that makes sense.
• 11:29
  SPEAKER_07: I don't know.
• 11:30
  SPEAKER_07: On the opposite, yeah.
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_07: I feel like it's not great my way.
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_07: I should be because I do think you probably take time to really think about what song and the order that's.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, there's probably an argument to that as well.
• 11:40
  SPEAKER_01: Like, people might not make albums like that anymore.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_01: They probably don't, but I do.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_01: So that's why I like to listen to it.
• 11:47
  SPEAKER_01: And I mean, like, sometimes it's taken me months to figure out what order songs go in on an album because I'm thinking about it the way that I would listen to it, going, then you hear this one, then you feel this, then this is the theme, you know what I mean, and and work through it.
• 12:00
  SPEAKER_01: But you know, maybe people aren't making records like that, and it's just hit after hit after hit.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_07: Going back to the structure of songs, you said like verse choruses.
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_07: I just wanted to say your bridges in your songs.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_07: I'm a massive fan of bridges, and I just wanted to bring it up.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_07: Love the bridges.
• 12:17
  SPEAKER_07: I like they're so good, and they make you feel a different way than the rest of the song does, which is what I love about a bridge.
• 12:25
  SPEAKER_07: It's like creates like a whole new emotion.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_07: So I just wanted to say that.
• 12:28
  SPEAKER_07: I appreciate that.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, a bridge is always traditionally made.
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_07: Is that a bit of a moment?
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_01: You're just shuffling the bridges.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_07: And this is also, I will repeat the same song, and I do this all the time just to listen to the bridge again.
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_07: Like, I just will listen to the whole song, and I hate how in a car you can't fast forward the song because I would do that.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_06: I would just fast forward to the bridge, but I'm like, I guess I'm playing it all over again.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_06: So, what she's saying is she needs a song, a compilation of bridges.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, just like the maybe that might be my next project.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_01: There we go.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_01: A festival of bridges, yeah.
• 13:08
  SPEAKER_01: Suspension.
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_03: Very good.
• 13:12
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 13:16

  SPEAKER_06: Bit of bracing.

  SPEAKER_02: Um yeah, sorry, she struggles with the funny stuff sometimes.

• 14:09
  SPEAKER_01: Well, where where you met and stuff?

  SPEAKER_06: No way!
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_01: And what happens is how?
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_01: What well you it's it's all a big illusion because you stand in a room and drink beers.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_01: Then you walk outside, get in a car, they drive you 15 metres to the front door.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, they do.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_01: Then you get out of the car like an idiot and walk back inside.
• 14:31
  SPEAKER_01: And uh Sammy years ago was one of the chicks driving the cars.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_01: No way! And at the time I spent all my time outside smoking cigarettes and drinking beers, and persistence beats resistance because every 15 metres she was coming back around.
• 14:45
  SPEAKER_01: Here I was knocking on the door, and that's pretty much the whole we are on.
• 14:51
  SPEAKER_07: No way, yeah.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_06: That's a crazy story.
• 14:53

• 15:12
  SPEAKER_02: That's uh good.

  SPEAKER_06: Have you um have you played that game before?
• 29:59

• 29:59
  SPEAKER_06: Oh, what?
• 30:00
  unknown: What?
• 30:01
  SPEAKER_06: It's like an OG game.
• 30:02
  SPEAKER_06: In high school, you'd play all the time.
• 30:04
  SPEAKER_07: So I say, Holly, what are the odds that um I scull the rest of this can and I would pick a number, so I'll say like 10.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_07: No, no, I you say it to me.
• 30:15
  SPEAKER_07: So okay.
• 30:19
  SPEAKER_02: Grace is famously terrible.
• 30:21
  SPEAKER_02: Unexplained.
• 30:22
  SPEAKER_07: Unexplained.
• 30:23
  SPEAKER_07: You should hear her explain how to say Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, oi, oy, oi.
• 30:27
  SPEAKER_07: I tell you.
• 30:27
  SPEAKER_07: The amount of times we've had to.
• 30:29

  SPEAKER_06: I listened to it back and it was fun.

  SPEAKER_06: She's running on her team, Rand.
• 30:44
  SPEAKER_01: I leave it to tackle.
• 30:47
  SPEAKER_02: No, she's running on her own frequency there, I think.
• 30:51
  SPEAKER_06: Anyway, guys, if you like to continue.
• 30:55
  SPEAKER_01: Could you please explain this game to me now?
• 30:57
  SPEAKER_07: So I would say, Grace, what are the odds you scull the rest of your drink?
• 31:03
  SPEAKER_07: She would say, uh, three.
• 31:06
  SPEAKER_07: And then we go three, two, one, and if we both say the same number, she has to do it.
• 31:12
  SPEAKER_07: So we'd go three, two, one, two.
• 31:15
  SPEAKER_07: So then she has to skull her drink.
• 31:16
  SPEAKER_01: But what's the point of saying three?
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_07: It was a stupid number because like you'd say like ten for like something you're kind of okay with doing a hundred for something that you're doing.
• 31:26
  SPEAKER_02: If you think the consequence of getting the same number is really bad, you'd say like a hundred.
• 31:31
  SPEAKER_02: Then you'd say a higher number because the chances of both getting that number is less.
• 31:37
  SPEAKER_02: Less.
• 31:37
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna say this.
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_01: I think all three of you are terrible at explaining.
• 31:43
  SPEAKER_01: But I'll give it a go.

  SPEAKER_06: Okay.

  SPEAKER_06: Okay, um, what are the odds you shave one eyebrow?
• 32:01
  SPEAKER_07: So say a number you want out of.
• 32:03
  SPEAKER_07: So would you like to do that or would you not like to do that?
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_01: I would not like to do that.
• 32:07
  SPEAKER_07: So say like a hundred.
• 32:08
  SPEAKER_01: A hundred.
• 32:09
  SPEAKER_07: Okay, so then I'll say three, two, one, and you both have to pick a number between one hundred.
• 32:13
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 32:14
  SPEAKER_07: And if you get the same time, you're shaving an eyebrow.
• 32:17

  SPEAKER_01: It doesn't mean it won't happen.

  SPEAKER_01: It's not an eyebrow app and lose.
• 33:12
  SPEAKER_01: What about just a slip?
• 33:14
