You are shining the light on, well, let's say the most underrated but hardest working organ in our body.
44:19
It does work hard for many of us.
44:20
It does a really good job until it can't.
44:23
And then, of course, it can make life quite difficult.
44:25
And, you know, we've got a bit of a goal, which is a bit ambitious, but we'd love to think we can get rid of dialysis by the year 2050.
44:32
I'm not saying we can get to that goal, but you've got to have something to aim for.
44:36
But the reason we're kind of yelling from the rooftops, you know, the campaign, if you can excuse the language, is called taking, well, I'll spell it for you, taking the P-I-S-S.
46:09
So who especially amongst us? I read out a list before, but you might know some more of them if you've had a stroke or diabetes or you're a vapor or high blood pressure, any other kind of groups that should be worried.
25:53
one.
25:54
You could hail one if you were lucky enough to find one.
25:56
Yeah.
25:57
And when they say hail, that means you have to get rocks and like fucking throw them.
26:01
Because they weren't stopping.
26:03
You said phone box and you've triggered a memory.
26:05
Can I tell you my most embarrassing phone box story? Yes.

55:15
Well,
CamHOST
34:00
Yeah.
34:01
I mean, amazing cars.
34:02
So I've always been a bit of both.
34:05
And I've always enjoyed the ride in a Ford.
34:09
So it's funny, I speak very positively about Fords for a man who's supposed to be a Holden guy.
34:14
But, you know, even...
34:16
When I watched Bathurst, I was a Holden guy, but now that Australian manufactured cars as far as Ford and Holdens, yes, obviously Ford still exists and GM still exists, but as far as Australian manufactured cars, I buy Australians, Ford Australians, all the stuff we've heard before.
CamHOST
35:57
Mate, this car is unbelievable.
4:00
It's an amazing story, but thank God it has a happy ending.
4:06
It does.
4:07
The truth is, and I don't know if people believe this, but I was never the guy or the person that said, you know, I'd always like to have a pub.
4:15
I've heard many persons say, obviously a lot of blokes say, God, I'd love to own a pub.
4:20
I just thought that would be a ridiculous thing.
4:22
It would literally be like Ned Kelly owning a gun shop.
4:25
It'd go wrong quick.
9:17
Oh, both if you like.
speaker_9UNKNOWN
40:42
Yeah.
40:42
So, but when, when we had to bury his dad, we'd buried his mum not that long before that, and I'm like, "Fucking...
40:48
I mean, what do you...
40:49
How do I help him? I mean, what, I mean, what can I do to help that world?" You know, I mean, my God, see if humor's gonna work here.
40:58
And then I'm like, "Ah, I've gotta try something." So when we're going from the, the church to the cemetery, I just said to a friend, "I can't not do it." He's like, "What are you gonna do?" I said, "I have to make them laugh at one point." The trip to go and put...
41:14
They've just...
41:15
I mean, I know with it, I mean, they're about to put their dad, like beside their mum.

68:03
Oh, it's horrible
50:36
generation scared of this no just any type of like joke that might be taken the wrong way Well,
50:43
if you're not joking about death, you're going to miss this joke.
50:46
Can I tell you my favourite death joke going around at the moment? Yes, please.
50:48
Guy works in a craft beer factory.
50:50
Something terrible happens.
50:51
He falls off a gantry, lands in a 22,000 litre vat of beer, drowns dead.
50:56
They have to ring the wife.
54:06
there?
6:15
joy.
6:16
And not only that, when you go to imagine these guys and I got to have these chats with them, that when they go to a wedding, you go to a wedding or someone's partying, everyone's going around the table, hi, I'm Shane, hi, I'm Brian, what do you do? I'm commentator i'm an actor and you get around to some bloke you know they're going to say i work for splashdown what's that oh we do the toilets for events the second they've announced that as if they're going to be bragging about that everyone's going to go oh and they're off you know i'm not going to shake your hand and all that stuff so they have a sense of humor at the ready their gun their comedy guns are fully loaded the second they turn up at any event so i had them on an event and um i'd given a lecture because i used to do sometimes security plans for events as well And so I'd had this big briefing session with everyone working on the event and said, every person that comes through the door of this event is a customer.
7:06
Because in entertainment, they call them punters and it's a derogatory term.
7:10
And I went, everyone that turns up at this event pays for us.
7:12
They're actually the client.
7:14
So security, I said, hands-off approach.
7:17
In fact, I was the only person I think that did this.
9:53
Routine, yeah.
