- 9:53Speaker 8: DJ Dorothy, she's a DJ. Now she's done remixes of
- 9:57Speaker 8: all of the Wiggles classic songs. And it's really funny
- 10:00Speaker 8: when dad comes to some of the DJ Dorothy shows
- 10:02Speaker 8: and he gets up on stage. He has no idea
- 10:04Speaker 8: what he's doing.
- 10:05Speaker 3: It's really funny to watch.

- 10:34Speaker 10: Yeah, it was scucksy lux pack. We had that hairstyle
- 10:38Speaker 10: and that's what we did.
- 10:39Speaker 2: We strained it and for a while.
- 10:44Speaker 1: You guys, you know you're identical, but he's very very
- 10:47Speaker 1: different looking now to you, right, and.
- 10:51Speaker 10: Yeah, like biologically everything is the same. It's just he's
- 10:53Speaker 10: grown a beard, lost a little bit of weight, and
- 10:55Speaker 10: he's got a top knot with a tattoo on his
- 10:57Speaker 10: side of his head. It's a great way to distinguish
- 11:00Speaker 10: difference between us and.
- 11:01Speaker 6: He's got Lenny and you've got jobs.
- 11:04Speaker 2: It's not an alter ego by you or anything like that.
- 11:07Speaker 4: It's not tix you full for it s even if
- 11:09Speaker 4: your songs come up on your playlist, are you listening
- 11:11Speaker 4: or skipping?
- 11:11Speaker 2: All right?
- 11:12Speaker 5: Listening?

- 11:18Speaker 8: Yeah, look here all the time.
- 11:20Speaker 2: I don't have a.
- 11:21Speaker 3: Kid, so for me. But when did your child make
- 11:24Speaker 3: the connection between the two?
- 11:26Speaker 6: Pretty early on he came on the road with us
- 11:28Speaker 6: asher like as from a little baby, so he's sort
- 11:31Speaker 6: of been around it, but he doesn't. He doesn' actually
- 11:33Speaker 6: watch the show too much. He doesn't like it that much.

- 12:06Speaker 8: become a full circle moment now because a lot of
- 12:09Speaker 8: the parents were children going to Anthony era shows, so
- 12:14Speaker 8: it's really full circle.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Well, you just say you did some pub gigs too,
- 12:18Speaker 4: didn't you for the adults.
