It's a fair parto. It's a fair parto, it's a fair barcho, it's a fair pajol.

Yeah it is, which means we're another day closer to the gab of Goodbye, obviously, which we were planning a little bit yesterday, which we'll get to shortly. I know, registrations open if you know what we're talking about. We're relocating from Melbourne to Adelaide to do the same show, but we were thinking it'd be nice to have a little podcast listener event at one of the hottest establishments in town in Melbourne, Sopranos Restaurant. A lot of people know it and love it. So in South Bank Tony Sopranos spraypainted on the front of it, have a lot of Sopranos themed foods. There obviously a very popular Hathbo series in the early two thousands, so I think that bounded myself. Are very fond of Belle coming around to the idea.

Well, especially yesterday she was telling us how excited she was for the prosudo pizza she does.

Are you more like a Spanish pursuit or a alliot?

I'm a Bruce Shetta person, and I thought you said Brucett.

Sometimes the Spanish you like the red but like you like the Yeah, I know, I know your style. It's about San doniel One or whatever. It's like a bit bit saltier. Keeps for ages though, because cue at me, you know, like it's.

Just also hard not to say anything.

Yesterday when we were talking about Sopranos, I was like, oh this it was. It was killing me because I couldn't play the Sopranos theme. Of course, got right issue, Yeah that's true. Now I haven't heard this. I've just I've done a really quick bang on the work computer. Royalty free Sopranos music. Great, there's one here. Can I give this a spin and just see if it sounds anything like Sopranos that we make going not really skipperhead, No, that ain't no, No, I don't like that at all.

Sorry, what about this? What about this? I don't know If this is royalty free enough, I'll never make it. It's over to get down here with your heads.

Oh my life.

I wanted to have the makingship of Barsity be fucking shitter of the year. It's finally might done.

What are we watching here? To be fair, I thought it was another video. It was just, yeah, this is more what I'm looking for.

Because tonight will be the nine. I gat a go, don't make me change my mind because.

Tonight, I just I knew there's a lot of Tony soprano sort of ai edits of him. Yeah, that that first one that you heard was him doing this mad Tony Hawk jump. I'm happy to put it in the pot squad. Cool. Everyone would like to say that. Cool. Also interesting. I've got a bit of a challenge for one of the team members. Okay, so I had a little ish with one of Toby's jackets. It's winter now, mm hmmm. So I went went the team member. I went to go to a like an alterator to just sort of just go, hey, can we get this fixed? They quoted me sixty dollars?

What was what was the repair?

Just it's like the it's like the so there's two elastic elastic bits on the side and they like buckle into another elastic bit. So sort of like if you imagine like the dog's head would go through it and then the elastic straps would go around its front legs something. And I was like, sixty dollars is insane. Obviously, the jacket itself wasn't even that expensive, but they seem to think it's worth sixty dollars. I would be willing to offer a similar bounty if someone if someone who is so good at alterations and so good at sewing would be able to in a timely.

Manner, because if you do, if you wanted me.

To, well, bell is apparently really good.

There it is, and there it is a hard job. Yeah, I don't really understand what exactly you're describing.

Yeah, strap, he's saying, so, like you know, you put you put a dog rug on a dog, right, and then under the belly you have to tie it up. So what stays on the straps of broken.

Yeah, so basically one of the elastic straps is like snapped off.

But yeah, it's just where they're Yeah, are we talking like a thick strap?

Necessarily just a little like dog size elastic that shouldn't be that hard, should be pretty easy, just running. I would have thought, someone who's so good, do you.

Want it done or not?

I would love because you're not. I know, I know, And.

If someone were to ask me nicely, then of.

Course, now I think that this is two seconds, So this is your chance to prove that you're a sower, right if this quest.

So, I don't really understand why I don't believe you.

If William said, hey, Bell, Bell, could you.

Please buckle one two? Buckle my shoe? Would you please be able to sew my dog's vest and let me have a look at it? And every night that it's not done as a night my dog is cold. So it's sort of it's a it's a it's a times of the essence.

I could sell it as well, to be honest, Well, this is ben do it first. I used to hand hand stitch doesn't count.

It doesn't not with that.

That'll come off in a second.

I'll go over and under a bunch of times.

I'll wrap it up. I don't really know, because I've never seen a thread needle or sewing machine in my life. So Sarah seems to think it's a bit of a tricky job. It's above her pay grade. And she you know, the old trade was sixty dollars.

That's the thing, because I well, I don't exactly know what type of material talking about it could be hard, but I don't know.

You said I could, we could bring it in for a quote. We could sit, we could. I don't. Yeah, once again, I wanted to just see if the job was sort of on the cards then because once again, once the dog jacket is removed, you know, yeah, cold nights.

Bring it in tomorrow, get your quote. If you both agree to the terms, take it home that night. Sow it up, Toby, be warn by Thursday.

Amazing.

Tell you what my quote is. What I don't have to pay my third of the gab.

A goodbye Jesus. Whizz je whiz ge whizz the moving target. Ah, yeah, we'll see, we'll think about that.

We'll think about It's funny, it's all good. I bring it in tomorrow. I will one hundred percent look at it and we'll go from there.

Thank you, Bill, that's very sweet of you. See Ben, you've got that black car heart how on, So this is funny. We're returning it. But I have a black car heart jacket. It's like denim. It's got like some and.

Has he got the red pattern on the inside.

No, it's not. It's just it's literally just the denim. It's just there. But yeah, you can get there there. They're they're like the down coat, like the ones on the inside they're pretty expensive, but they're like keep your heaps warm apparently. But yeah, so Sarah like bought another jacket for Toby. Tried it on. It was way too big, but it was a car heart. It's a dog jacket, car heart dog jacket. But the denner was so stiff that it was running off him, like at least thirty centimeters. Well, this is so big, it's ridiculous, Like, took it.

Back, but he gets del to alter it, bring it in.

It's true.

Oh charge you through the roof for that. How much is a car heart dog jacket? Bloody? Hell?

I don't know. Yeah, you don't want a dog in brand?

No, I'm about to get some jackets for my cats.

Very excited hat jackets. Yes, yeah, it's when we were having this conversation off air recently, like you you were saying that jackets and pets aren't a thing because they have But are you coming around to the idea. I'm so cold at the.

Mess and said I was cat harness and they were like, do you like one? I was like, hell, yeah, but it's a harness for yes, Well, it's a harness for walking them so instead of a collar and choking them it's a it's.

Thru to those out through two of them. I should have give him to you.

How many times I need to tell you guys, I will take your trash? How many times do I have to tell you? Throwing stuff out?

Why he likes that? You know, and Star Wars. You know, there's not the Tuscan Raiders, but there's other little dudes with the yellow eyes.

The junk yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, on the on the big what do you even call it?

Yeah?

The ship thing that.

Rolls around Tatoway and yeah, what are they called? What are they called? What are they called?

Pieces of ship?

Well, they basically just scour ther dust planet. Why should you donate them? Ben JAA?

Why didn't you donate them? Why did I throw them out?

Well? Because I bought them for Finn, bought the like, bought a small one for him when he was a puppy, and then he grew quite quickly. Brought him a larger one, and then he grew again. But at that point we didn't need to harness anymore. We just used to call her and lead. And then I thought, well they were like his, and they were kind of old and worn, So I was like, I don't know I was gonna want these. They were pretty dirty and I don't want to watch them.

I'm also a harness guy, just like not me physically, but yeah, good responsible.

Also I am because caller is not responsible.

Ben, how would you like a collar around your neck and then me.

To pull it and then you don't know the soull doesn't pull desires?

How uncomfortable would that be for him?

That's awful that I'm telling you. There is maximum slacking his lead at all times.

He hasn't pulled.

There's no harness more uncomfortable.

M as long as he's not pulling.

My dog pulls like a horse, pulls like a dang horse needs that harness otherwise he'd choke himself. Well, yeah, does your dog ever get too excited and hyde ventilit No mine does. I don't know if it's a convertile thing. Felt like like pugs, but they just they're like they like can't regulate their breathing for a bit. Yeah. If you I don't know, if you've got like a poodle style dog, I think you'll know what I'm talking about. They're just like to start snorting and then like and you really you just need to calm down. You just need to calm down.

He gets anxious, like he gets like if we're inside having fun, he wants to be in on the fun, and he gets like sad that he's not in there. Yeah, or sometimes I think sometimes he mistakes laughing for screaming and he gets like he starts to scry.

A little bit.

Have you it's okay, mate, a good time.

And dad's just telling some jokes in here, just chomping it up.

Have you seen those videos of everyone doing it?

I don't know why it's on my algorithm, but people feeding their dog and then pretending that an intruder comes in and attacks them and seeing what their dog does.

It's quite funny.

I haven't seen I'm seen them.

Yeah, yeah, you've seen that.

Was that they put the food in the bowl and they feed their pet and then so like, for example, you could do this with Sarah, right, oh, Sarah, And then she goes to open the door. You come in with like a ski masters up, attack her and see if Toby leaves the bowl and helps you. Most of them, it's very funny because most of them leave the bowl and they go nah, And.

Toby's not asked, he will leave his food there for like days if we don't entice him, but he won't, Like if we put his food down, he'll just he won't eat it.

What do you mean by entice him though?

Like I have to be like each food food like like encouraging or like give them a little bit of cheese or something. Yeah, coax him in with some cheese or like yeah, like give him a treat if he eats his yeah. Yeah.

The other version of those videos that I see a lot is people pretend to die in front of their dogs to see what they do, and it often just ends in them being humped by their.

Dogs's gone for bid. I died and my cat started chewing on me.

Yeah.

What would you rather be eaten by? Humped by your dog after dying or eating by you cat?

I'd rather my cat get something out of it, like.

Eat to be fair, the dog's getting someone out of his.

Anyway.

I was actually playing with Toby the other day in the park and he was just rock hard. I was like, where did that come from? There's no other dogs in the like, don't I don't know what happened? Yeah, it's not good.

Yeah, I think my dog Fin's got a bit of rectold function in the opposite way where it's quite often he just be rock hard. I don't know why. It's real stimulated easy. He's embarrassing when you like see it and you're like, whoa stand stand.

You've got a big dog as well. It's big bo I feel heaps and masculated around.

Yeah, big hog, no nuts.

I do have an update though, if we want to get to some business for our new jingle. So as we were saying we need our new regular show podcast jingle, like open a jingle, and we were thinking of going back to Trevor the guy that originally made the Bunnings jingle, and he made the Ben and Liam Adelaid breakfast show jingle back in the day.

And the reason we can use it is because we like bought it, we got the rights to because he gave it to us.

He gave it legally use it.

Yes, and he created it. And so if you do remember, we have been waiting for a response. I texted him, didn't get anything for a while.

I texted him.

Yesterday when I said I would follow up, and he did reply and he said, Hi, Bell, Sorry, I've been a bit slack.

I've been working on one of my and then in brackets they don't grow on trees.

You know.

I do forget to check my emails all the time. I forgot again. I'm sorry, I'll promise I'll do it today. I am a professional procrastinator.

Okay, so we've at least there's a bit of a sniff there, a bit of a I feel like though, even Tho, the last thing to get to us for free, which is so loved with him, I feel like he's he's prepping us for a hiking the price. He's like, I'm so big. I mean, he don't grow on trees.

To be fair, I mean, we know our show isn't necessarily the most funded thing on the planet. Yep, but we are a part of a giant commercial conglomerate budget.

Though, if he wanted us to pay, we can pay.

I'm not against paying him. I'm just saying I feel like maybe he's going to, like, yeah, charge us a lot.

Well, you know, we've we've had a lot of contributors over the years that have given us a lot of things for the show.

And then down the line they have started us a payment.

And that's okay because we're willing to do that with our people. But yeah, so he yeah, hopefully hopefully he'll say yes, good update.

That is good. The gab Goodbye front yep obviously held on the seventeenth July approximately six thirty pm the Sopranos Restaurant. We said open open for everyone. Just register interest at this stage so we just know how many pizzas to get and that sort of thing. It's been live for around twenty four hours. We've said hit us up, Ben Limanbell at nobblb at Nova Entertainment dot com dot You've never actually said that email out loud yet.

But blb at nov Entertainment dot com dot.

You, yep, that's where you can hit us up. How many people have registered their interest for the Gabba Goodbye.

So so far we have three people who have rsvp's. We've got Daniel Zoe and Luckey.

A Scars And are we keeping an eye across it? That Bell isn't deleting entries to make the pizza price smaller A good point.

Well, that's a good idea.

Actually there was there was actually something that I missed yesterday. So remember yesterday I was going through the prices of everything and you were like taking orders and we were doing rough maths. I realized that I was just using one of the Google images that someone had uploaded, and then I saw Bell uploaded the actual website pdf lenk incredible with like high.

Decks, clear quality.

The photo that I was looking at must have been from a long time ago because prices have gone up.

Interesting.

So a medium pie is twenty six. Okay, so that's twenty it's got six dollars.

Yeah, it was twenty two, wasn't it?

No, no, No, twenty two was a large pie. I'm pretty sure I think it was twenty four was large twenty okay.

It's still upsade Jackson.

And a large pie is thirty.

How much for a large gourmet pie? Thirty two? Should we do the thing that were all.

This?

And this is the best one? Sorry to cut you off. We did the maths on a Peroni costing you nine bucks. It's now sixteen.

Really the perny prony, your pronys have gone through the roof, because I was like, yeah, nine old perny is pretty pretty good. Yeah, pretty good. Keeping in mind a slab of twenty four is around fifty bucks.

Yeah, but actually I don't they do byo. No, I wouldn't have thought so that's for a pint, for a schooner's fourteen.

Okay, so pint, So a pint is almost two bottles, right, Like a pint can be like five hundred meal. Yep, like a big what's a big point? What's a full? Yeah, pint can be like five hundred meal and you're getting like two thirty in a bottle? Right? Am I crazy? My measurements off there?

I think a bottle would be like isn't that two seventy five or something like that?

Three No, three seventy five. I don't know. What about the past has been?

What about them?

The price of the pastas.

Are so the standard ones, like than the Napolitana it's twenty six bucks. Then the medium one's got twenty eight. And then if you want to get yourself something like a like a Tony Soprano pasta. Yep, you're looking at thirty.

This is some fine dinings.

Got Italian sausage, chicken, Italian sausage.

There. You got to take that into account.

Olives sundry a.

Type, that's a type, not that it's been.

You were acting like you don't even want to do the gab a goodbye.

Before do you want to pay for everybody bill one third?

Wow? Do I want to pay for everyone's meat? Probably not.

Would you like a seafood marinara pasta?

Well, they have less brain.

They have less brain. Do you want me to show you a video of how they do it?

If you want?

If you want to get a seafood Marnara, that's going to say.

I don't want to freaking seafood marnara, leam.

If you want to seafood marnara, I'd love a seafot thirty four dollars.

Come bub now, I'm I'm sure it is you know.

I'm sure it's great. This is This one got me excited when I was reading the pizzas. This isn't a go mate, this is just the regular pizza a Tony's Super Supreme.

Wow, that sounds good.

This is thirty four dollars for a large sauce, cheese, ham, salami, olives or winners so far capscum, onion, pineapple, mushrooms, prawns, anchovies, garlic. What a pie that one is.

That's the whole damn ocean. Bring out the whole ocean.

And just speaking of pie toppings, while we are on the topic, if you're an RSVP, b'll be at Noventertainment dot com dot au. Also put down your pizza order, so then at the end we know what pies to order. Daniel wants an entree of garlic cheese pizza.

That's right, Well, hang on where? Hang on? When are we doing here?

Yeah?

I think there's somewhat. There's been a few.

I think what we could do and open suggestions on this. Someone can suggest one meal be a entred pasta. They do mains as well, and then also one pie. So like Daniel, for example, wants an entree of garlic cheese pizza.

That'll that that is good, yep, that'll get everyone ready.

And then Zoe wants a large chicken Lover's pizza yep. And then they've also put a polo pestern yoki.

Oh god, that sounds good.

That's twenty eight bucks. And then and then Lockie he wants an Assie pizza. I don't know if they dosy pizza, but I can check that. Yeah, I don't know, Lockie. It's more of an Italian place. Does seem strange to get the Aussie, doesn't it.

Yeah, it's sort of a slap in the face of the Italian culture.

They do have sauce, cheese, ham, bacon, and egg. Look, if he gets enough votes, I'll get it. That's fine, Matte. Yeah, well yeah, so so far with those three people actually paying if we order what they want, not including Peronis, over one hundred dollars so far.

Price I'm willing to pay. Priced a couple of us are willing to pay. We could also do this, well, if you're worried about paying, we could just do the classic credit cards in a bowl and just what whoever wouldn't that be fun?

So like if but then if mine gets picked out that I pay for everything?

Yes, there's the one. There's a one in three chances that you're paying.

You're either one hundred percent paying for a third of it, or you're there's a one in three that you're not paying.

Any gambling, I'll do that.

Yeah, if I don't go, does that mean I don't have to pay?

You are seriously considering not coming to the gabble Goodbye.

I can't afford Huh, I can't afford.

No, you can't.

You got to be there.

It's a gab of Goodbye Melbourne.

What do you mean what if I sit on a separate table by myself and I'll pay for myself.

This is not in the spirit, not in the spirit of the gabble. Goodbye.

Yeah, we'll see, we'll see.

I just want to put a spotlight on Lamb's idea from yesterday, which I would like to do. If if Bell pays, then she can be a part of it. If she doesn't choose to pay. On the night, then everyone gets there, sits down, takes their seats, and then when we walk down, everyone's like really quiet and it drops their forks and then they stand up. Yeah, to pay respects. But there's a few there's a few things.

Been thrown in the chat here Newburan. He's just clarified three hundred and thirty mel for one bottle and four seventy mil for a pint. So my measurements are a little off there. So I suppose we have to round up to two.

Pints each, two pints per person.

Yep, he said. Also make a note for people to email their allergies. I suggested that yesterday that was shot down.

The Bell did right what you said dietaries, and I said, and lam mcgreed.

No, dietaries is different to allergies.

Dietaries vegetarian, vegan, okay, allergies more, I'll die if I have a peanut.

Okay, yeap, No, we should. You should make note of that if you if you.

Have an allergies, not be allowed to come.

It's probably an easier way of doing it.

Actually, don't order the Sarte pizza.

Like producer bend As an example. Is death allergic to the shellfish? So that means if he comes, we can't get the seafood.

That means if he.

Comes, don't eat the prawn one like can we we're all adults.

Is there a room like a there's remember at the Christmas party I through around having a prawn room. Maybe like we could put the seafood marinara in one of the cubicles in the toilet and everyone can go in there for a slice, and we keep it away from the people of the allergy.

And potentially I don't know, like what else could you be allergic to besides shellfish, peanuts?

What else is there?

There's I think there's a few things, but it depends on the scale. I guess like some people can't technically have onion, but like I don't think they're going to have an anaphyctic reaction. Same like lactose intolerant people and like all that. It's like you can be technically allergic to it.

If you have an allergy, feel free to put it in email.

You are anaphylactic to something and you need an EpiPen and you'll die if you don't.

Then, if you're a celiac, we're gonna have a tough night. Yep.

Again, if you're celiac, you know.

That it's it's a heavy it's a heavy gluten night. I would say, like a lot of pasta, a lot of pizza.

They don't have a gluten free I'm.

Sure they'd have a gluten free it's probably forty seven dollars for pasta. But that's okay.

Yeah, but you know you can you can order something like everyone knows what they can and can't eat. Like that's like me being that's like me honestly coming in and being like, well, no one's allowed to have any meat.

I just know that I won't be having that.

Yeah, that's your choice. That's fine. And you know there'll be some tony soprano and pizzas around. You'll turn a blind eye.

So if you want to not turn a blind eye, but I will not be partaking.

If you want a gluten free base on your pie five bucks.

Extra Yeah, okay, well yeah.

Look the Gaba Goodbye, getting a lot of steam. We've doubled the numbers because we're all coming yep, so you add the team in yep, that's another four. So it's like it's gonna be big. It's gonna be big, it's gonna be a party.

I'm genuinely very excited.

I'm actually rewatched Sopranos in the lead up.

I can't get Sam to watch it.

I told Sarah and she she watched like a couple of episodes when I was away. She was trying to get into it and didn't do it.

Yeah.

I tried one episode with Christian and I hated it.

Well you're breaking bottles?

Are we.

Try try ones?

Then?

Yeah?

Well, Christian be coming to the gap with Goodbye. He loves the Sopranos.

He does love Sopranos.

He's welcome.

He'll probably be working.

Ben had a good idea we could get a projector set up in Soprano's restaurant and just have have having it.

We asked that on another episode, didn't you say would they have all the screens on playing sopranos over and over.

Yeah, remembery, there's lots of I think we went. We may have gone there like eight years ago or something like that, after a show, maybe around Easter. I have some sort of memories. I think Ben and I might have gone with Nick Gerber. Yeah sounds about right.

And we're here for good as Friday then, yeah, I think so.

And from memory, it was like lots of paintings in the room of people not from the same movie franchise or like world smoking cigars together, so it'd be like The Godfather smoking with Tony soprano and like maybe Digger Maradona or something like that, right, and.

No TV screens showing No, I don't think so.

I don't think it's a soprano seemed it's.

The basic thing to do is just have it playing.

Yeah, definitely. I'm looking at photos of it now on Google Images, and it's next to the wine shop.

Yeah, yeah, it's next to the wine shop.

Yeah, look at that our street foot I do remember sitting in there.

Yeah.

I thought I had red and white turbocasse, but it doesn't.

Yeah, it's just cables. That's that Ace's pizza in Adelade. Great spot.

They moved from yeh from the market central markets. Where are they now again, I don't know. They move somewhere still around that didn't shut down. Yeah, aces pizza, good good shout. If you have an adelaide, if you live there, go check that out. Yep, good times kill. Maybe we could have a gabba hello there.

Yeah, we could do a Gabba Hello, Gabba goodbye the following week the gabba Hello. I don't know.

There some sopranos lingo that works with like a welcome or hello ah.

Like Gabba gul was gabba goodbye? Is there something that works with hello port bello?

I don't know, Like a mushroom. I don't think they a lot of mushrooms. No sala.

Ah. They like baked zdi and gable gul Yeah, no, I don't.

If if anyone has any good good ideas, they can put them in the pod squad.

Yeah, the port Hello.

What's the food?

The mushroom, but also mushroom weird time to be talking about mushrooms at the moment.

I don't think anything. I don't thin mushrooms, and I think soprano is very slow.

The news, the trial and everything.

Yeah, yeah, all right, well yeah we can have a think about that, but yes, all exciting.

Bye and that's it.
