Your mining Elliott I Mate Good morning.
Well, the West West Eagles lost to the Brisbane Lines by nineteen points at the Gabba on Sunday, ninety four to seventy five. The Eagles kicked the first five goals and led for a fair bit of it, we did, and then what happened.
I think the boys got pretty tired.
Yeah, unfortunately, the third quarter really hurt, really hurt.
Yeah.
I was sitting there watching and I just reckon. We made a few mistakes that we probably could have got away with, but Brisbane had just.
Been a very good side. They just capitalize on it and that they hurt.
So yeah, frustrating in that third quarter, and then I think in the fourth it was a bit of a bit of an evening sort of game. After that, I would have thought I might have kicked one or two more, and yeah, unfortunately the damage was done.
You played up there. You know what it's like at midday and that brizzy weather.
Stinking hot, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, but the humidity cooks you from the inside. So and then if it's scorching as well, like good luck, good luck, that's really tough. Like I've been told, a few boys have lost kilos of sweat.
Both sides were suffering in equal measures.
Oh it's shocking.
Yeah, but you could see after the quarter time as well, we jumped them, which was great, but that would have taken a fair bit out of Brisbane to get back and a lot of effort. So credit to them. I mean, that's probably why they're the premiership team. But yeah, that's that's hard work.
Well is it?
I mean, is it dumb to be scheduling games at this time, at this time of the year, is it? Should they be? You know, if they're going to be in Brisbane in March, should they be.
At nice seems like a bit of a controversial topic. If I was to say anything then I'd probably get scrutinized. So yeah, well i'd be going against what the AFL suggests. But from my recollection and memory, like I can't remember many games, I would have thought this would be round one four or five years ago, this would be now considered around one. So yeah, yeah, it's it's interesting how early things are starting now and the games are getting hotter and hotter in the earlier part of the year, because it's still hot March, like it's still stinking hot, and even in April it's still quite warm. So yeah, yeah, that's at the end of the season.
Yes, that's all I'm going to say at the end.
That the powers that we would see that well if I can.
You would think, so yeah, just said that you can't change it because of the TV and all the rest of the crowd.
But yeah, well there's a bit of that involved. But then also they have measures and metrics that they go off as well, So if it is hot or stinking hot, then they will.
Delay it because they eat.
But the problem is that if they do that, then it's going to be hard for us to get back on a flight. So we've already pre book flights and stuff like that. So there's all these different things involved.
So yeah, it can be a bit of a mess around if that's the case.
But unfortunately, yeah, like it was, I think from what they were reporting and then what was going on ground level, it was drastically different from terms of temperature and humidity and all that compared to what it felt like at ground level.
Yeah. Yeah, would Brizzy have been worried at half TI? Would fay Gon have been that worried for goals down a half time? Because I think ten to three or something, you a second.
Half, I think so, yeah, But I think I think that would have been concerned. Yeah, they would have been thinking how did how did we get this far behind? And then also how are we going to get ourselves back? Especially with this heat, Like the boys look sapped like after halfway through the second like everyone was out on their feet. So yeah, it would have been they would have been thinking, this is an amount to climb. But they also probably backed themselves in, which is they're a very good team, so they would have thought, no, we'll end up getting on top of year.
And that's what good teams sort of do. They just grind out and you know, win the games that they probably shouldn't have, just through grinding it out and being tough and cleaner and more skillful, which is basically what happened at the end.
Made better decisions than us and unfortunately we just went able to capitalize as well when we went forward in that second half.
Tim Kelly was right in the game, twenty nine touches, six clearances. He had made that strange comment, weird thing to say out loud that he wasn't enjoying football earlier.
Do you think he's enjoying it again?
I think you get misinterpreted. So I knew what TK was probably alluding to.
I think you just said it in the wrong way, Like, losing is not fun, and we've been losing a lot of games it's pretty lately.
Like still coming into the football.
Club, being around the team, being like just in the environment is the best job in the world. So like, I think people just sort of took that the wrong way. So TK still comes in with a massive sort of you know, excitement and energy around the football club. It's just that I think you know, what he meant to say was losing sucks, isn't it is? And the past couple of years have been really, really tough. So yeah, when you start winning games of football, things changed pretty quick. So yeah, unfortunately it just hasn't been. Yeah, unfortunately it just hasn't been probably the I guess the path that he would have thought it would sort of unfold coming from Geelong and making that decision, and that I don't think we'd be in this position, but unfortunately we are, and hopefully we can start winning games of football again because winning games are food is fun.
What did you get your take on? Yeah, absolutely one won't get your take on seeing Zane Zorko having a real crack at some of his teammates, and we see players do that. Brendan Roddard used to do it in Sequilda. How do you feel about that? Do you do that? Sometimes? You think there's a fine line between really getting off your mates and getting something action.
Uh No, I'm a bit more old school as well.
So yeah, and there's a few old school players out there that are like those, obviously one.
And at the end of the day though, they probably needed it.
So, I mean there are four or five goals down against West Coast SO and their tip to win. I mean we're paying thirteen bucks or something like that going onto the game with the underdogs by a mile, and we've jumped them, so I think, and we were looking really really good in the first half. So for them, I would have been thinking and there was a lot of things probably going on behind the ball that Zorka wasn't liking and fair enough. I mean we're four or five goals up SO and he would have been going, you know, having a hard conversation because Zorko is a type.
Of player as well.
If you don't if you don't know him, I was lucky to play with him when I was busy. That is the hard on the sleeve type of player. So and he wants to win, so at the end of the day, he would have been having some hard toos with a lot of players, which is what you need. You do need those types of leaders.
I feel this Sunday is the Derby town divided with a knife.
All that it is first win for one team.
For one team. That's the most exciting part.
It feels too early this season to have a Derby, I mean roundel.
Feels too early in this season to be Round three.
It's so weird.
It's weird.
So going to be an interesting game. What are you started for it?
Absolutely?
Yeah, it's it's a winnable game and all derbies are. That's the thing we saw last year the first we won the first one, Freo were tipped to win that we were underdogs going in. So anything can happen with derbies, and they're genuinely heavily contested games. And I would have thought, you know, we'd like to try and get the first one on the belt. Freyo would get a few people off the back. So it's going to be a good contest. I'm muture to look forward to it.
It's an Eagles home game, so slight advantage because you've got the crowd on your side.
Slight advantage. Slight advantage.
So is that the only advantage or is there.
Probably no, no, because everyone sleeps in their own bed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah I wouldn't. But even then, like.
The other change rooms a crap or anything.
Like the not like the Brisbane. The Brisbane change rooms would be the size of the room. They're tiny.
Wow, And then you've got to walk I reckon you end up doing the equivalent of Jacob's later because they have this weird in Bete. Yeah, so like the is yeah, yeah, So the locker room, you're going to go up some stairs.
Ye, it's an old ground and yeah, then there's.
An auditorium and then you're going to go down some stairs and then there's a locker room.
So it's yeah, it's spinal. It's weird.
Actually, can we call the OFL and make sure maybe just change the rules for this week. There's no chance of a draw. We just play extra time because two teams ever won.
Yeah that's true.
I agree, Yeah, draw, let's let's run it out.
I was going to say's Jake Water made a chance to play.
I think he'll test this week, so we'll see, we'll see how he goes. Hopefully you can get up. I think he would have helped a lot on the weekend, might have been a bit of a different game and have had probably lit a little bit more or less moving parts all of thought in the in the second half, I think Bas going down and then Arch as well in the ruck and all that, so he started cramping. So it might have made things a little bit easier if Jake was in there in the forward line, so we might have been able to pull a few more things here and there.
But yeah, hope fully we can get him back this week.
Made I reckon in twenty twenty five, a spectator running down to the boundary with a packet of tissues and a player giving him the bird. I find that funny.
That's funny.
Probably so much you can say, but.
Yeah, it's fun everyone. Yeah, everyone talks about it.
But they all want they all want players to have personality and to have a bit of fun and all this stuff and the theater of the.
Game and all that.
But then when someone does it, they just I feel like the media is just slamming for it.
Yeah, yeah, he was smiling.
But he's yeah exactly, it's all a bit of fun read Yeah, yeah, it's all a bit of fun.
But at the end of the day though, like he's a nineteen year old kid. Yeah, I just let him be a kid. So people forget that, and I get you. I get it. You're playing NFL footy year and.
Be paid to be more than a nineteen year old kid.
Well correct, Yeah, but it's hard though, Like, how do you I saw a comment I think it was Jimmy Bytail throughout the yesterday or something like that, and how do you get an old head on young solders? Like that just doesn't happen, So and I thought, you know what, that's actually a really good comment. So, yeah, they want these kids to come in and be themselves and be flamboyant with their personalities and all that, but then they want an old head on them as well. So it's like it's hard for them to find the balance intoing.
So I understand they don't want in direction with a crowd that gets dangerous or chesting a spectator or you know, but yeah, a bit different, you know.
It was literally yeah, yeah exactly.
So yeah, it's it's an interesting sort of turn of events that will unfold. I think this week I think they've issue did please explain? Yes, Yeah, so we'll see how we go with that.
Well, bounce down for the Derbyers three ten. You might have been beaten by Brisbane, but it's the big trip to Brisbane, the raining premiers, and it was a huge turnaround from the week before.
So I think you go into this game feeling really confident.
Well yeah, hopefully, yeah, yeah.
I think I think from you know, the perspective and probably the review, I think there's a lot of things that will be confident on going in and hopefully we can implement that and continue to grow from it. I think having the extra game under the belt as well might help. It looks like we sort of struggled in that last quarter to run out, but I think, you know, a fair bit, fair bit of that was the weather and Brisbane were kind of the same, So you know, we'll be fitner and stronger from it.
And Derby sixty.
Have a Derby carded day.
Yeah, thanks Cat and chat Angel. She's locked herself in the bedroom.
She's that's very dramatic.
She's in tears. Well, there's a reason to texting your friends. Well, it's funny you say that, as you know, as a teenager, whether you've got acne or just a few pimples, it's pretty much pretty much signifies the end of your world, doesn't it, especially if you've got a party, school ball, or a date coming up. Now, Angil hasn't got any of the above. Of course she doesn't go to school, but she must be the Well, she's three cat years on, no or three years old in our terms? Is she a teenager?
More or less?
So?
My cat angel, she has cat acne?
Catney catney?
How bzar, I've never heard I've had cats all my life.
I've never heard of.
Cat at just a few weeks past turning three? Right? Is it because because we gave a cake that was sweet in it? Because you know that whole thing about sugar gives you pimples and all that. I don't know, so these things I'd never heard of it. So for a while they were noticing that her chin was looking a bit dark, and we're thinking, little Grott, you should be cleaning. You know, they did a kick thing where they wet. Yeah, so she was still doing that, but she got these little black dots and a chin and they start coming out through blackheads. She's got black heads. They're black heads. That's a thing. Oh my, So of course you go on Google what's going on? And apparently it's the hair follicles on the chin producing too much of a thing called keratin.
Look, I might have had one of these myself.
Oh really Yeah, yeah, you catch on my face face.
Too much carrotin, so the pores that follicles become blocked, and it gives you a black head. It gives the cat blackheads.
I think I've had one of those under my arm. Is that too much information? Gross?
Let's wait too much?
Are you in the interest of you know, sharing?
You want me to squeeze it?
No?
Come on, that's I've never so.
The poor little bugger. Yeah, and as you know, you go crazy on googling and there's all kinds of theories and stuff.
Likes to do that.
Yeah, squeeze it. So they reckoned plastic food bowls. You got to replace those with steel ones. She hasn't go any plastic balls. She's got ceramic food bowls. And yeah, that can cause it because you can get a plastic and allergy to the plastic, which I never heard of either.
My cats have got those bowls that are sort of raised on an angle, so they're eating kind of face on rather than bending.
Fantastic stops them from spewing.
Reason.
Oh yes, it's the anti spue bowl.
And it's better for their postures.
Think they're worried about that.
How to walk and how to talk.
Little book on.
So you get it. You can get a shampoo.
And love a shampoo does a cash.
You can get a cat wipe, but enough human Apparently human wipes are too strong, so you're gonna get a cat wipe.
Okay, cat wipe.
You can get. You can get to fight the bacteria fifty yeah, yeah, yeah, to fight the bacteria. You can get andy biotics, but that seems a bit full.
That's a lot.
And you you want to stay away from antibiotics if you can, yeah, when you really need them.
But also you don't want your cat getting a jab or you want the last thing you want to do, the the oral thing with the you know, trying to put a pill down the cat straw.
It'd be easy to pop the pimple.
Absolutely, that's what I'm thinking.
Yeah.
So, and the other thing you can do is trim their chin hair. Now, I'm thinking she's never going to forgive us if we do that. She's she'll get teased by the other cats. You have a little baldy chin over there. So we're not going to do that. So we're going to go with the cat wipes and see how we go, and in no time Angel will be all ready for the school Blue Light Disco. On a date with Gary, a cat girl Gary somewhere.
Oh my god, I learned something new and I didn't think there was anything I didn't know about.
Can let you google it and you go it's a thing. So Wow, More Crazy Lisa, More podcasts soon.
Trains playing at Redhill Auditorium May eighteen. Tickets are available through oz. Tig's Pat Monahan is with us this morning.
Hello, welcome, Hello, How are you guys?
Good?
Very well?
So touring with Katie Tunstall and Jason Wade from Lifehouse. What can we expect at the show?
Well, you know, I've learned after thirty years that it's better to travel the world with friends than people that you don't know. And so I've known Jason for many years and kat was just on our cruise and she was our first time meeting. She is absolutely incredibly lovely and talented, and I think we're going to do a lot of fun stuff on stage together.
A lot more people, a lot more bands and artists doing cruises. Man, how's that working for you? Because it sounds like a lot of fun.
It is, you know, I think that was our ninth one and I can remember a couple of them.
So answers the question.
A lot of fun the bars open.
Yeah, I'm told that they're incredibly fun.
Up on the poop.
I've been fun on the poop, Dame, and there are captive audience too, so that's that's.
Always good yea literally as well as.
The cruising well touring with Ario Speedwagon. What what was that like?
It was great, you know it was it was an interesting combination that you know, we didn't know if it would work or not, but we became, you know, lifelong friends. I think will be friends forever. They're just lovely people.
Yeah, Kevin Cronam want to tell them. But one of the great joys of our job in the last couple of years, the two of us were numb because we got to chat to Graham Nash for about twenty minutes. He worked you work with him, didn't you on your solo album? What was a lot meet in Graham?
Man Graham was he was lovely. As soon as I met him, I started to gush and we just stopped me right He stopped me right away and said, I'm already hear me.
I love it because he's pretty humble.
Is he's so humble, and you know, it's just makes you that much more of a fan. As much as you start as a fan, and then you meet somebody who's as lovely as he is, You're just like, man, I'm so glad I'm a fan.
Yeah.
Something I didn't know until today is that before there was Train, you had.
A led Zeppelin cover band called Rogues Gallery.
There was many, many moons ago.
You know, until today, I guess. But what is your favorite led Zeppelin song?
You know, my son who's thirteen, he asks me similar questions. That's a very hard one to answer. But the song going to California moved to californiaself, that is.
The most beautiful song.
But there's other songs like thank You, Yeah that is That's an incredible song. There's just so many of them, you know, I'd.
Like to hear using all of My Love like I love that song.
Yeah, well you know what beautiful? What else is an incredible song is Drops of Jupiter?
Talk about you know, coming in hard with that as it's your first song. What would it be like if you tried to leave a show without doing Drops of Jupiter?
Yeah? I never understood artists that don't play the songs that people want to hear. Yeah. I grew up singing back to you know, all the singers that I went to go watch their performances and just dreamt that maybe that would happen to me someday, And when it did, it was like, why would you ever get tired of that?
Yeah? Absolutely? Yeah, it does have it a bit. Some people get off there off the money maker, the ones that make them famous. But in Australia we have Paul Hogan who did Crocodile Dundee and he gets there, that's not a knife, that's a knife line. All the time. Do you get people coming up and asking you about marrying me that was their wedding song? Pretty much every day?
No, I love it. I think, you know, to be a part of somebody's anything is cool, But like a big important day like that, that's it's incredible.
It must be part of a pretty regular thing, especially on those cruises you'd have the captive audience. A lot of them would have had that one.
Yeah. And then my favorite thing to do when people are spilling their hearts as I tell them that my lawyer will be contact shortly.
Daunting. Is it pat to sing the national anthem?
I know you've done that a couple of times, and that can be you know, that's fraught with fraughtness.
A lot of people have wished.
They hadn't said yes, and then you know, others have just had the best time of their lives.
I dislike it a lot. And here's why. Yeah, there's there's two results. The best result is that nobody cares. The worst result is the next day you're a meme. Yeah, there's no in between. There's there's you know. And before I would sing it, I would watch all of the most terrible ones on YouTube. And my favorite was Michael Bolton because he had the words written on a piece of paper, but he had his hand like on his chest right, so he's like he's about a third of the way and he forgets, so he looks down at the paper and the entire stadium just starts booing. That's what I do before I sang the anthem as I look at all those because I'm like, it can't get worse than that.
Please tell me you saw the Kyle Lows won the runner because the everyone was trying to sing. There's some great ones, big finish. What's a lot early in your career. Obviously it's horrible, but can you tell us about that struggle when you get rejected and you know it's it's tough in the music guy, especially with the big labels.
Yeah, when we started, we were flown to New York City because basically we had a record deal in the bag, and we performed for all the heads of the label and they didn't want us. So we flew back to San Francisco and we made our own record. We borrowed money from people and paid them all back and then some. But when the label, the same labeled it said no heard the album, then they were like, Okay, this is a this is a band we want. And so I love that story because no doesn't mean no, It just means go get better, prove it, or go figure out what you didn't figure out. Because they were right both times. You shouldn't have gotten a record deal and then we should have Yeah.
Yeah, you wouldn't want to take no for anounce straight up, would you.
The other end of the extreme, of course, is when you find yourself at the Grammys.
You've won three? What's it like going to the Grammys?
Favorite? My favorite part of the Grammys is performing at them. Okay, And I tell people this a lot. When we were performing Drops So Jupiter years ago, Bono was in the front row and he and he gave me a thumbs up. And I tell people that's because we were up for five of the same Grammys and he took four and he let us have one.
So this one, that's so good of him.
He's so good of him.
Oh that's funny.
He's a very sharing, caring guy.
Bought her as a youngster. Could you imagine you'd have so much love in a country like Australia because we have a touchdous els to the band and this and you're rotting in your songs and your vocals as well.
You know my Over the years, I've become obsessed with golf, and Jason Day has become a good friend. There's another there's another young Australian golfer. His name is Cam Davis out of the same course as I do. And I'm really good friends with these Australian guys because I get, like Adam Scott's a friend, Like there's something about Australian humor is very similar to mine. Like these men are sick in their heads. Yeah, and that's what I love most about them because I relate to it, and we're all so like gentle with people who are not so sick like us. But being around these guys is so fun. And I just can't wait to be in Australia because I think I know Australian's better now than ever having had these close friendships.
Yeah, I really want you to have the Cam Dives mullet.
On the golf courses where you're going to find a lot of that humor happens. I guess now, before we let you go, Pat, there's one thing we do love to ask. Do you remember the first time you heard yourself on the radio?
Yes? Actually, I was a house painter in San Francisco, Okay. A song called Meat Virginia came on the radio and I was on my way to paint this lady's house, and I pulled off the road and I turned around and went home. Yeah, and I thought I don't need to do this anymore. And I didn't realize that I wasn't going to get a check that day, so I had to go back the next day to go picker house.
That's funny.
You carried away a little early for what a great moment.
I turned around a little early.
The question always makes me think of that Tom Hanks movie, the one you know with the Bed of the Wonders, the thing.
That's actually takes place in the town that I grew up in.
Film. Yeah, I love the freak out. Yeah, very cool.
Well, Pat, We're looking forward to seeing you and the rest of train here at Redhill Auditorium on May eighteen. Tickets are available through OZI. Thanks for chatting to us this morning.
You're honorary Aussie.
Thank you. Yes, Kat, we're really looking forward to being there.
Good to chat man.
Thank you.
At the footy on the weekend least, I was working in a function room before the dock has gome and not really working that hard, just to interviewing a couple of players and stuff like that, but before the function. As the function began there's a point an hour and a half or two hours before the game starts, where the doors open and the people come in who have paid to be in.
That room fair amount of time.
Yeah, yeah, so they come in because they can see the you know, the crowd building out. It's actually really cool those rooms, just the Blackswan room and drinks, food and drinks, and speaking of which, the latter. The doors open and people come rushing in. They want to get the best high tables and stuff like that. And four blokes are at the bar before I can even blink. So the doors had been opened sixty seconds and I turned the other way. I could see the blocks at but I turned the other way and I heard this all mighty crash. It was like that Billy Joel song with the glass you know, I class houses. Yeah, oh my goodness. And so you could tell that someone who was part of the Stars taxi and I turned around to see the tiniest of staff members and she was standing there with a tray with one glass left. She'd lost six glasses of beer full to the brim, like there were the tall glasses as well, and they'd gone and the last one was gone. Wabbling around like a motion and that went as well, because once one goes, they all go. It was so loud and all you could see was like, well, a sea of beer on the floor. Some people would say great, but it was full of glass and a lot of ice. There was a bit of ice on there as well, because I think she dropped a soft drink as well, and all the blokes at the bar just took one step, one big step to the right because they still wanted to get their drinks, were going to get it from her. There's a mighty ruin the poor love. And then the squad comes and they're very well drilled there op to They come and bring them mobs and buckets and it's all tidied up pretty quickly. But I thought, what have you dropped in history? Because it can be so it's so embarrassing because everyone looked. I think people outside the room heard it through through that glass.
I dropped a full bottle of perfume once that as I was taking it out of its box, hadn't even had the sprits yet. It was kenso flour. It's a it's a weird long skinny bottle. After you bought it, yes, and and I dropped it. And the upside is the house smelt beautiful kenso flower for good Year.
But yes, that was that was very frustrating.
Yes, yeah, especially Yeah if you thought you play full price bang, you've.
Just got to get to take the little so.
I thought we can find out what you've dropped. But it drinks cakes perfume. Yes, it might have been a person, a meal, yeah, a.
Name an ice, scared for something and you dropped your part.
Yeah absolutely, Kiara in Harristyle, Helloa, Hi, what did you drive?
I really dropped the kid.
I'm not laughing after what happened.
I've just walked out of the bathroom after changing the kid and I stepped on a toy and accidentally fell with the kid and dropped it onto another kid.
Oh no your kid, No, you had someone else's kid, a kid.
Yeah, it sounds like a French farce. You stepped on a toy, you went.
Trying to say to the kid and yeah, singing in slow motions and those toys blood.
Yeah, Michael was so after that.
Yeah, yeah, well it could have been could have been leg.
Okay, yeah everyone was fine after that.
Yeah, yeah, well you're allowed to pick that kid up again after that care.
I didn't pick him up after a while after that, but I was scared.
To pick up. Yeah, oh dear, thanks Ki.
I'm glad it ended well.
I wasn't expecting that. When I said, what did you drop? I did? I guess I did that person A kid, a kid, someone else's kids.

That's a good mud cake, one that doesn't fall apart. Yeah, we still.
Served it because we were.
Going to let it go to waste, and no one knew. And you know, there's a whole five second second rule.
One second whatever it is, ten seconds. You're cutting the problem, Vicky.
Oh good, how are you going?
Would you drop? What was it? When we went down a couple.
Of years back, I was doing my boyfriend a favor and buying all this alcohol. I don't know if you know it Dan Murphy's in Fremantle. Yes, I a trolley and part of the car park is on a slope. Yes, yeah, it's not flat. So I had all the alcohol in the trolley and I'm loading it into the backseat of the car, and then I was lifting out the single fin to put in the car, and the trolley started rolling. And you know, if it trolley rolls on a on a gradient and it's got stuff in it, it's the smash into another car and dent it. So I still had one hand under the cartiner grabbing at the trolley, and it just lost its balance and went smash on the ground, and I grabbed the trolley. I had the trolley, but all that was on the ground was this sotoken box full of broken glass. It was terrible that I had to go back in and buy another other cart and it was bloody sacrilege.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, terrible. You want to try And I can't believe you're talking about.
It, and you think about all the dollars flashing before your eye.
Yeah yeah, people running back and ask for another carton and a straw.
Please.
Look.
I did go back and ask for another cartain and the guy said, no, I can't do it, sorry, premises.
But you're right there. I know that car park. Well, it's not far from my joint, and it's it's quite a slope, isn't it right there?
Yeah, because I was parked on the other side. I didn't think about that.
Bumm.
Yeah, that was pretty sad.
It's got a landsday.
Hi, how are you Sonya? So it was is this story about your daughter or you dropped your daughter?
No, it's about my daughter. We were in Covid and we had bought her the Mandalorian baby Yoda and it was a good Friday. And I said, she'd spent eight hours putting this baby Yoda together. Lego, Yeah, it's a lot, Yes, there is. And I said to her, lor I'm just going to duck out get some fish and cheap. I was at and she rang me and said to me, and she was crying. She was just about to put the head on and she dropped the whole head.
So what am I going to do?
And I said, don't worry. When I get home, I'll come and help you more.
Put it all back together again.
We spent another two hours putting the head back together.
To be talking about day, it's Rebecca.
Hell I hell I. So in the eighties I was waitressing, but behind the bars bath staff, and it was New Year's Eve and I was moved from the bar stuff into waitressing because you know, your stuff weren't tending up. And so the big thing in the eighties was the flaming Bombinirees, you know those morangue things, and so I was so I actually dropped, you're going to pour the liquor over the moraine and then sert it on fire. And I dropped that, you know, the little glass of liquor, and it went flying across the table and pretty much hit the bombing area. And I thought, you know what, I like that thing anyway, because it was just just what you do the whole and the whole table went up in flame. I was jumping back from the table and needless to say, what the fact.
That night and having a great light shot.
Yeah, it was a special Year's eve.
Ye you'll never see one like this again.
That's right.
I go back to that restaurant. I'm dying gone wrong.
That's a wide berth on that one. Oh, thanks for Rea, we're laughing. Deborah is back in business.
Hello, good morning. When did you drop?
It was a birthday lunch and I had to cook for ten people for our family and family friends and partners. And I'm not a cook, so I had to cook a lasagna and it was in a big glass dish black glass baking dish for ten people, so you can imagine it. I had yes, and as I was getting out of the oven, I dropped it and it smashed the oven door, the baking dish. There was glass everywhere, and so my daughter went off and got us red rooster first.
Feel better, But yeah, it sounds like a bit of a dog's breakfast in there. That's that's a mess.
That's horrendous.
Lisa More podcast.
Soon The Last Anniversary begins on Binge on Thursday. I love Leanne Moriarty books and I love good TV, so it's like Christmas for me. Theresa Palmer plays Sophie Honeywell in the Last Anniversary and she's joining us now, good morning.
Good morning you guys.
So, as I said, the Last Anniversary based on a book by Leanne Moriati, did you get to meet her?
Did she have much involvement?
Yes, I got to meet her. I am her biggest fan girl. Yeah. Yeah, I've read all her books. Yeah, they're my airport books.
So whenever i'm at the.
Airport, which I'm at a lot, I always get her books and I read them on the plane. And I actually signed on to this job without reading the script because they had lean Yeah, it was like I had the inbox. Bruna Papenrea, our producer sent it to me and it said in the heading the subject heading, it was like Leanne Moriarty's the last Anniversary.
And I just wrote back.
I was like, I'm in Yes, I don't even need to read the script.
You didn't know.
You didn't even need to know that Nicole Kidman was a producer. And I mean, every time Lee I get together, it pretty much spells success.
It does, it really does. And obviously I'm a huge fan of what they did with Big Little Lives and Extrangers. And this is a dream. This is absolutely a dream. And you know, I think what Nick said in one of the earlier interviews was that she was so excited to have Australian accents for the world, and I completely agree. It's the first one of her books that has been adapted into a show that is set in Australia. On the Beautiful Hawk's Bary.
Yeah, so cool. So and then they raise you Miranda Richardson and a Daniel McDonald. It just gets better.
It just gets better and better and better. And Claude Scott Mitchell and Helen Thompson the areas Helen Thompson, whosan. I mean, what a cast. It's been wonderful and largely female, which has been really nice.
Yeah, Lean, I believe was pretty adamant that it was made in Australia.
It's set on a fictional island called Scribbly Gum Island.
And so where did you say you ended up filming at the Hawksbury?
Yeah, artful, so picturesque. We had to. I mean, there was a lot of logistics because we had to get on one boat to the next boat to get to an island and then you know, then you're stuck there all day. But it was so beautiful and I think it really created this sense of camaraderie and kinship between all the cast the crew. It was so much fun. We all wanted to sleep over at the island. We realized why even go home, We should all just stay here at this shit in the morning. But it was it was wonderful. And then to premiere it last night with an audience was the first time I've actually seen the show was in front of an audience and including my three sons. So it was really enjoyable and I could the excitement was palpable. The audience loved it, so that is exciting.
So is it does that help you get into the role. You've got a little bit of work to do to get into the place as opposed to some cold soundstage somewhere you sort of Does that help?
Definitely? I think it sets the stage. The location is so picturesque, and it's almost like the location is a character in and of itself. So as we get there, you know, there are pelicans and it's just so stunning. We were pinching ourselves.
We were like, this is our job, guys.
We are getting paid to do this. We are here in this beautiful location making this gorgeous story. I mean, it really was sensational. And then to meet up with everyone last night, including Leon, was just wonderful.
So Samantha Strauss adapted it for the screen.
Now she's also done as well as Nine Perfect Strangers, The Dry and just recently Apple Cider Vinegar on Netflix.
Which was fabulous hodible.
I mean, is there was there a box that was not ticked on this production for you?
So yes?
I just I couldn't believe it came to me. I just kept bringing my apro. I just was like, how did this happen? This is next level exciting and Bruno pap Andrea. She gave me my first big break in Hollywood with Warm Bodies many years ago with Nicholas Hole and John Malkovich. And she's a fellow Adelaide goal, so I still been wanting to work with her again. It really did, and I did a movie with her, and then on that movie addition, she was like, I have a little something for you. I think you're gonna like her. And then this is when the Last Anniversary slipped into my inbox and I just and I was like, what character she's like?
Dalid Sophie And I was just blown away. Really, but it truly.

Before we let you go. There's one thing we love to ask our Thespian friends. Do you remember where you were when you got the call for your first big role? Yes? Yes, I do. Yes.
I was shopping at cotton On in Peatree Plaza and I got because I actually used to manage that store, and I went back and they we're having like a discount sale and I was like, well, like fifteen dollars.

Thank you and especially with that family, their household.
Of eight sous the best, Yes.
Sure report on ninety six every I don't know if anyone watched Netflix's news series The Residents on the weekend.
I did, and I totally recommend it.
It's a rollicking who'd done it with a great cast led by Uzo, who's always awesome. She was Crazy Eyes in Oranges The New Black. She was also in that series Painkiller. It's said in the White House, and there's an Australian connection to the storyline, which is why Kylie Minoga is in it. Anyway, if you watched it, you may be wondering why the series was dedicated to the memory of Andre Brauer Brooklyn nine to nine star Brower died just over a year ago after a very brief illness, and he was actually midway through filming The Residence when he died. He was playing the leading role of ab Winter. They had to recast their role and that's when they brought in Gincarlo Esposito, who played Gusts.
In Breaking Bad The Chicken Guy.
To play ab So that's why the dedication appears at the end.
And like I said, big recommendation for the show.
Conan O'Brien has just been honored with the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor in a ceremony at the Kennedy Center in Washington, d C.

Also this morning, Ricky Gervais has debunked a long standing rumor that he wants auditioned to replace Steve Carell in the US version of The Office. It was when they were looking for the new boss, eventually played by Will Ferrell. He was asked to audition, but says he didn't because he didn't want to.
Move to the US plus been there, done.
That, it would have been strange. Ye on the weekend Lease and you'll probably understand what I'm talking about when I say that. Laurie and I went out for dinner and Subie and we were walking back to the car, so it was dark, and a car pulled up next to us, and the couple were getting out doing something. I think that I'm moving house or something. It was quite a bit of stuff, and I look down on the ground and there was this beautiful shape of a white Jaguar next to the door. And you know those cars that have the reflect the lights that give you a you get the light on the ground. Have you ever seen those? So jags now have a light shaped like a white jaguar that reflects on the ground, so you've got shaped so it's a jaguar, the cat right on the ground because it reflects down, so you've got light as you take your first steps out of the car.
I've never seen that.
That's a pretty and I don't.

It's jagger are on the ground.
I can't do this.
Well, maybe I do a sloth or something. We could do that.
Can you pick whatever animal you want to doesn't have to be a jag on.
I think I'd like a hedgehog or something, you know, like on the ground there, what do you reckon? But I'm just wondering if it's a jag, if that light globe goes, is that like four hundred bucks because these are expensive vehicles. Yeah, crazy and Lisa
