At a glance

From this episode’s transcript.

  • –The hosts set up a 'one drink each' bar tab system for Friday night drinks to avoid blowout bills, drawing on Tommy's past experience of leaving his credit card at a bar.
  • –The Daily Talk Show migrated its email system so each team member gets a personalised @thedailytalkshow.com address nested under the parent 'Big Media Company' G Suite account, saving on per-account costs.
  • –A charity event with Lady Brains, Glow Journal and Jemma Watts was being held on 16 January at The SB, with $55 tickets and 100% of proceeds going to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal and Wildlife Victoria.
  • –An Instagram poll decided Josh (63%) had to eat 'Lil Nitro', a one-piece, ~9 million Scoville gummy bear from Flamethrower Candy, which caused him visible pain, watering eyes and numbness.
  • –Tommy relayed a story about a psychedelics researcher who gave an elderly Indian guru three very high doses of LSD to test whether meditation could replicate or control psychedelic states.

Questions this episode answers

What is the Lil Nitro gummy bear challenge on The Daily Talk Show?

Lil Nitro is a single extremely hot gummy bear made by American company Flamethrower Candy, rated around 9 million Scoville units (about 900 times hotter than a jalapeño). Listeners voted on Instagram for Josh to eat it, and he did so on air, experiencing watering eyes, a numb tongue and nose sweats.

Why did The Daily Talk Show change its email addresses to @thedailytalkshow.com for each host?

The team consolidated The Daily Talk Show's G Suite as a secondary domain alias under their parent company, Big Media Company's, G Suite account, allowing personalised addresses like tommy@thedailytalkshow.com and josh@thedailytalkshow.com without paying for extra individual accounts.

What charity event did The Daily Talk Show promote in this episode?

A fundraiser on Thursday 16 January at The SB in Melbourne, run with Lady Brains, Glow Journal and Jemma Watts, with $55 tickets and all proceeds from sales and a silent auction going to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal and Wildlife Victoria.

Tommy: The Daily Talk Show.

0:04

Josh: It's The Daily Talk Show, episode 573.

0:07

Tommy: Happy Fat Fridays.

0:10

Josh: Clap it in for a Friday.

0:11

Tommy: How are we?

0:12

Josh: Might as well, uh, Friday night drinks, turn on.

0:16

Tommy: I tell you what, mate, uh, see how easy it is to organise drinks? Yeah, it's, it's like people are just like, I'm in.

0:22

Josh: But we haven't gotten there yet. Like, I don't understand that bit, but we'll have a tab. How do we manage the, uh the one drink each.

0:30

Tommy: Oh, we'll put— I'll put the card behind the, um, so you just, you either put it behind or you get a tab started and then you pay it once everyone's got their drink. And so we just hit it once.

0:40

Josh: Okay, so we just say, because say for instance if someone's getting there at 6.

0:44

Tommy: Yeah, I'll just leave my card behind the bar until—

0:46

Josh: And then we say, hey, one drink each. If you're going outside of that, don't use the tab.

0:51

Tommy: I mean, if you've just started watching the show, Josh has come from a land of no drinking for the last 28 years. Um, The funny thing, one morning woke up and I think, oh fuck, look through my wallet. I was like, oh, where's my card? And my credit card wasn't in there. And I was like, oh no, I left it at the bar. I had a tab open and I've left it and I've got like a book. It's almost like, you probably remember this, like if you were to keep, you know, cards, footy cards, like they have a card book.

1:23

Josh: Oh, great.

1:24

Tommy: And so you leave your cards and then they, you know, they give you a card in exchange for your card and you give that one back so they can find it in the book. Anyway, Anyway, this one morning I'd been out with my bro, rat shit the next day, lost it feeling sorry for myself, told my brother, I was like, mate, I gotta go down. He's like, me too, same bar. He'd left his card, his credit card.

1:44

Josh: So you're all starting tabs?

1:45

Tommy: We were all starting tabs. I get ya, I get ya.

1:47

Josh: Can we just make— I guess part of the uncomfortable thing is I just don't want it to become an issue. That's my main thing.

1:53

Tommy: I'll manage it, it's the easiest thing on earth.

1:55

Josh: All right, so the main thing I guess is that if it is an issue, we just treat it as a lesson and never do it again.

2:00

Tommy: Never do the drinks again?

2:01

Josh: Well, yeah, if all of a sudden—

2:03

Mason: No, just never buy anyone a drink.

2:04

Josh: Well, so for instance, if it comes out like— So we're like, oh, you know, maybe 15 people, you're saying like $150. If it ends up being $800, I don't want us to make a big deal of it.

2:15

Tommy: Okay, we'll just do it and then it's never happening again.

2:17

Josh: Does that make sense?

2:18

Tommy: Yeah, but the Gronks— I mean, are the Gronks going to break the rules? We've assigned, like, if you're coming, it's one drink. You get one drink, Gronk, and it's a beer or a cider or a wine.

2:27

Josh: Is it a wine?

2:28

Tommy: It's the basics.

2:28

George: But a wine—

2:28

Tommy: You're not getting getting a bloody tequila sunrise. No, that's not a— that's not— that's just like a mixed drink. You're not getting a margarita at $22 a pop. We're not paying for that. You get one drink, baby.

2:41

Josh: Okay. And because I have seen cases where it's like, oh wow, the tab's crazy, let's all just go in and it becomes an absolute nightmare.

2:48

Tommy: If we had Tully here where she's committed to the round, I'm sure— and people are like, I'll have them, I'll have an espresso, I'll have a margarita, and then she's got a $600 round on her hands. I bet you Tully's done that. Well, that's why I said to Tully Should I text her and say, what's the biggest round that you've ever shouted?

3:05

Josh: Oh yeah, all right, let me see what she's doing tonight. Maybe she can come.

3:07

Tommy: Yeah, okay, you just keep talking, I'll just quit.

3:10

Josh: So it's, uh, it's Fat Fridays. At the top of the show, I'll just, uh, let you know if you want to leave us an Apple Podcast review, we do appreciate it. It's been going crazy.

3:19

Mason: Yeah, oh sorry, I'm just reading Harry Lodge, can we put up a webcam?

3:23

Tommy: Oh, we can do a live stream on Insta.

3:25

Mason: No, no, no, no, sorry, this, this is right now because it's not enjoyable looking up Tommy's nose.

3:31

Josh: What does he mean?

3:32

Mason: From the—

3:33

Josh: he doesn't like the angle. Yeah, the angle is fine.

3:36

Mason: Low level.

3:37

Tommy: So I've said to Tully, do doing the show and want to know what the most expensive drinks round you've paid for.

3:43

Josh: Right, perfect.

3:44

Tommy: The question mark.

3:45

Mason: Jake Jansen says I'm getting a Long Island.

3:47

Tommy: Oh, is Jake coming? Fuck yeah, please come.

3:49

Mason: Hashtag Gronkh Squad. I think he's coming.

3:50

Josh: Good value.

3:51

Tommy: I love you, Jake.

3:52

Josh: And, um, yeah, so Apple Podcast review, Sebbs.

3:55

Mason: Yeah, so the first one, better than Logan Paul.

4:00

Josh: Really? Yeah, I haven't seen this one.

4:02

Tommy: What did people say? I just saw it.

4:04

Mason: No, that's the title, and then the comment was amazing. Yeah, that's nice. Which is nice.

4:10

Tommy: I mean, thanks.

4:11

Josh: We'll take it.

4:12

Tommy: I just need to do some forward promoting for this episode. We've got something very special for Fat Fridays. If you've been across our Instagram, Facebook page, Facebook group, you probably have seen it and it's going down very shortly.

4:28

Josh: Also, we've got the event on Thursday night, the 16th of Jan. Yeah, Mr.

4:33

Tommy: 97s, I'll let you bring up some of those details because I don't want to butcher them and we want to make sure it's a nice clean delivery of information because you know what we do.

4:44

Josh: We fuck it.

4:45

Tommy: We're great at talking, but what comes out.

4:47

Josh: So we're doing it with Lady Brains. Lady Brains is doing all the organizing. Jem Watts, Queen Gronkh will be there.

4:54

Tommy: It is a fundraiser. Yeah, it's a fundraiser for bushfire relief.

5:00

Josh: And there's, uh, it's gonna be at the SB. We said we weren't gonna do this. You guys nailed it. Really?

5:05

Tommy: We have, we've done it.

5:06

Josh: Anything else?

5:06

Mason: Yeah. Okay, so it's at the SB, 6:30 PM, Thursday, 16th of Jan. Yeah. Uh, Lady Brains, Glow Journal, Jemma Watts, uh, and the Daily Talk Show. Um, tickets are $55 and 100% of the sales and proceeds from the silent auction will be donated contributed to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal and Wildlife Victoria.

5:27

Tommy: Perfect.

5:28

Josh: And so we're going to have a guest as well.

5:31

Mason: Yeah.

5:31

Josh: Ladybrains are getting to experience— Anna and Kate are experiencing our admin abilities. We decided—

5:38

Tommy: We're pretty flat out at the moment.

5:39

Josh: Well, and 97 and I decided to do some server work last night.

5:46

Tommy: Dude, I mean, you've done a whole thing with our email, which I don't quite understand.

5:50

Josh: Do you like it or no?

5:51

Tommy: I don't understand it. I don't understand the benefit. Over the past one.

5:57

Josh: Okay, so the benefit—

5:58

Tommy: sell it to an absolute—

5:59

Josh: so the, the— we have a big media company, that's our company, that's where all the cash comes in, comes out, mainly out. But basically, uh, big media company is our business, that's where we do, uh, all of our financial stuff, that's where it all goes through. We've got a bunch of things that we do, everything, uh, from video production, social content, all that sort of thing. The daily talk show sits within Big Media Company, the way that we've been doing things is we have had a G Suite for Big Media Company, which means we have email addresses hosted, uh, for Big Media Company. And then we've had a separate one for The Daily Talk Show, which means, uh, the daily talk— hi@thedailytalkshow.com had a G Suite with one username, as if it was like one business with a username.

6:47

Tommy: Yes.

6:47

Josh: What we've done now is we have imported The Daily Talk Show's domain as a secondary domain alias within big media companies' G Suite.

6:58

Tommy: When he starts smiling, he knows he's lost.

7:00

Josh: Have I told you about IAB 2.0? So what you need to know is now we all have our own Daily Talk Show email addresses. So tommy@thedailytalkshow.com.

7:14

Tommy: Email me.

7:14

Josh: Josh@thedailytalkshow.com.

7:16

Tommy: Email him.

7:16

Josh: Mason@thedailytalkshow.com. We can get you the alias Mr. 97 as well.

7:20

Tommy: That's good.

7:21

Mason: '97 or so.

7:22

Josh: '97 is good.

7:23

Tommy: You don't have to pay any more money.

7:25

Josh: No.

7:26

Mason: So, so we're saving cash.

7:28

Tommy: Well, get this, um, like, so the business my wife works for, uh, they, you know, they've got lots of staff, 50 or something. But Amy said to me that they have, and they're still paying for, individual G Suite accounts at $5 a month.

7:45

Josh: Yeah.

7:46

Tommy: Um, for staff that were there 2, 3 years ago because they need access to the emails if something goes on, they're like, fuck, like, fix this. No, but this is what happens. You go, oh, I need a new email, so I'll pay the $5 a month, I get a G Suite account.

7:59

Josh: But so what you can do—

8:00

Tommy: but most people don't know this. I mean, this is where they're winning, right? Google have got probably millions and millions of people paying the $5 a month.

8:07

Josh: Well, so we pay $14 a month each.

8:11

George: Each?

8:12

Josh: 10, 20? Because we get—

8:16

Tommy: no, that's 2 of the accounts.

8:17

Josh: No, no, no. We pay $14 each, $14.95 each, which gives us the unlimited data. $15.95.

8:24

Tommy: Okay.

8:24

Josh: But that gives us unlimited data, way more than what the $5 plan gets us. So we pay that.

8:29

Mason: I've got like 9 terabytes of storage on my account that you're currently using. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're out of unlimited.

8:35

Tommy: So, right guys, you're really turning me on with this tech talk.

8:37

Josh: And so the great thing is that now it's all consolidated. So we can— I'm currently— I've got a project called Email Signature Project. And I'm working on a new email signature which has Big Media Company, and then it has like little like the Daily Talk Show logo and stuff. So then when we're sending even out from Big Media Company, let's just fucking, let's make it obvious what we, you know, we're a big media company.

8:59

George: Yeah.

8:59

Tommy: And so you're seeing the different brands. Great. Hopefully we haven't lost anyone and you're still hanging around.

9:04

Josh: In regards to Amy's company issue, what I would suggest and what we've done is you can do migration of previous emails.

9:12

Tommy: Yeah.

9:12

Josh: You can either keep them local, so you can use, you know, Mozilla. Yeah, the CEO, I believe, Tully.

9:19

Tommy: Tully doesn't— oh, Tully's texting me back.

9:21

Josh: What did Tully say?

9:22

Tommy: Oh yeah, she's— she said, haha, is this a trick question because influencers don't pay for drinks? I'm gonna say, mate, I saw you working out that ING card.

9:31

Josh: That actually— in LA, that was very funny though. Um, sensitive. Maybe, maybe if Tully comes, we can get a few free drinks for everyone.

9:40

Tommy: Should I just call her and put it up to the phone?

9:41

Josh: You could.

9:43

Tommy: It'd be funny.

9:43

George: Yeah.

9:44

Tommy: All right, here we go.

9:45

Josh: I'd prefer if we could patch it into—

9:47

Tommy: Oh, I'd love to be able to patch it in, but we'll just call her, see if she answers. Um, here we go. Speaker.

9:54

Josh: Okay, this is real pavo.

9:57

Tommy: This is what we do.

9:59

George: Hello?

9:59

Tommy: Hey, Tully, we're doing the show.

10:01

Josh: You— Oh my God, Tomo!

10:03

Tommy: Mason called me Tomo yesterday.

10:06

George: Tombo, Tombo, Tombo.

10:08

Tommy: Get that a bit Tully, we're doing the show. You're on the show right now.

10:12

George: I love being on the show.

10:14

Tommy: We're going out for Friday night drinks tonight.

10:17

George: No, are you back drinking? Congratulations, welcome back.

10:21

Tommy: I don't know if the congratulations is in store, but I'll take it. Number one, we'd like you to come. Mr. 97 would love you to come out for some drinks tonight. And it's at Moondog. And number two, we were wanting to know if you'd ever been stitched up and had to pay for a big round.

10:38

George: I haven't, no, I haven't. But I have, I do have a habit of getting a little bit free with my, with my money when I've, when I've had a few drinks. So I kind of end up shouting most of the bar, especially if there's shots involved. Oh yeah.

10:52

Tommy: Yeah. That happens.

10:53

Josh: And so any serious amount of cash? Okay. But has there been a bit, what's the biggest bill that you've gotten?

10:58

George: Yeah. So I used to be a part of a dinner club, me and a couple of guy friends of mine who were all hospitality would go and cheque out new bars and restaurants when they opened up in Melbourne. It was me, me and 5 guys. And one dinner I decided I'd get the entire bill. Well, me and 5 guys who had just had like 7 courses each and a lot of drinks.

11:18

Tommy: Well, how much was it?

11:20

Josh: Do you remember?

11:20

George: Uh, more than my rent that month.

11:22

Tommy: I'll just say that.

11:23

George: Wow.

11:23

Tommy: That's—

11:23

Josh: yeah, and Tully's rent's pretty expensive.

11:25

George: I think it was about $1,700.

11:28

Josh: It's a new iPhone.

11:31

George: Geez.

11:32

Josh: Well, dear Tully, if you want to come, Moondog in Abbotsford. Yeah, you don't have to.

11:36

George: Guys, do you know what weekend is— what's happening this weekend?

11:38

Tommy: No, what is it on the social calendar for us influencers?

11:43

George: What? Portie Polo.

11:44

Josh: Oh, where's our invite? I thought you were getting us there.

11:48

George: Oh, you want to come to the polo? 97.3, my plus one.

11:51

Josh: Yeah, well, I fucked my ankle, so I can't, but, uh, of course you fucking did.

11:55

George: Oh my God, you were just such a— you're just a walking disaster.

11:59

Tommy: All right, um, Sevs will be calling you shortly just for a cute chat.

12:03

George: But, um, yeah, can you guys, can you guys get Sevs drunk and get him to like maybe make a little video for me?

12:08

Tommy: Yeah, sure, definitely, that's happening.

12:10

George: All right, Tully, or you can FaceTime me. FaceTime.

12:12

Josh: Yeah, great, we'll do that.

12:13

Tommy: We're doing it. Uh, oh, what about this? What about this? Can we do a live Instagram and then I'll tell you when it's happening and then you can join from your account so we can do it?

12:22

George: Okay, you know what, because I'll also be lit, let's do that.

12:24

Josh: Great, great with Tully.

12:26

Tommy: Perfect. All right. See you, Tally.

12:28

Josh: Thank you. Bye, guys. That was fun. That was good.

12:32

Tommy: Be good if it was great audio, but the audio was upsetting.

12:35

Josh: We, I mean, we can easily do that.

12:36

Mason: You could have done it on your computer.

12:38

Tommy: Yeah, but do you have Tally's number? Tally didn't let you have her number. Okay, so should we pull this out? Yeah.

12:45

Josh: Fat Fridays. Yeah. So this is Fat Fridays. So anyway, we're going to put up details of the event with LadyBrains for the SB. We're going to do that tonight. They announced it yesterday. But because of all the server transitions and stuff, we— some of the assets didn't.

13:01

Tommy: Yeah, it will happen. And the show baker's going.

13:05

Josh: Oh, great. So will she bake something? That'd be cool.

13:09

Tommy: All right. So this is— oh shit, let's drop the goods. This is from the Redfern Convenience Store. I was up in Sydney over the break and I popped in.

13:20

Josh: See Hazem?

13:21

Tommy: I wanted to see Hazem. He was not there. And the other dude who was working there when we did the show, from the front of the store, wasn't there either.

13:29

Josh: Really? Who was there?

13:30

Tommy: Another guy.

13:31

Josh: Fordo was working.

13:32

Tommy: But so I, um, I got a few things because I was like, Fat Fridays, gotta. I got these. These are Smith's chips, Lamington flavor. And crisps or chips are a savoury item.

13:46

Josh: How would you describe Lamingtons? Nice as?

13:49

Tommy: Um, is that a trick question because they're from actually from?

13:53

Josh: Yeah, that's a trick question.

13:55

Tommy: Are they Australian or are they from New Zealand?

13:58

Josh: And also, I shouldn't— I was wanting—

14:00

Mason: the reason they're like a fluffy—

14:02

Josh: Why are you making this so hard?

14:05

Mason: The reason why on the outside with a chocolatey sort of coat and sort of fluffy stuff inside.

14:12

Tommy: Okay, can I have a go at explaining?

14:13

Josh: But I was throwing it to him because I thought it would be real quick, like moving it on. This is what's in it. Yeah.

14:18

Tommy: Spunge cake— imagine like a tray too long.

14:22

Josh: It's like me describing it.

14:23

Mason: You describe it!

14:24

Tommy: Go on.

14:25

Josh: Okay, yeah, it's a sponge cake with this lovely glaze.

14:28

Tommy: No, no, you can't use my exact terminology and cut me off because I could cut you off as soon as you—

14:33

Josh: but then you said the next line was what I had issue with, but go on, because you said it's sponge cake with like, you know, little sponge cake cubes texture.

14:42

Tommy: So the texture of a sponge cake?

14:44

Josh: That's where you lost me.

14:44

Tommy: You take those, you dip it into chocolate, then you roll it in coconut, and then you've got a Lamington.

14:48

Josh: Yeah, that's it. Okay. And so, how is this in a chip? This is crisps. These are crisps.

14:52

George: Yeah.

14:52

Tommy: So, there's— It's savoury, but then it's a little bit sweet. So, I haven't tried these, but they look— Yeah, there's like a purple packet.

14:59

Josh: It says Lamington chips, fair dinkum. It's the ultimate Aussie snacking mashup. A bit of fun. We asked our Smith's flavour team if they could make Lamington flavoured chips. They actually did it. And we think they're beaut.

15:17

Tommy: Remember when Hamish and Andy made the gravy flavoured chip? Was that through Smith's? Similar, similar. It feels like this. Yes, I remember going.

15:26

Josh: So 3.5 health star rating, that's quite good.

15:32

Mason: Look, actually I had a pasta last night from Coles, it was 3 star rating.

15:36

Josh: Really? So these, this would have been better for you?

15:38

Tommy: No, on par.

15:39

Josh: Yeah. Can I open it? Uh, I want to smell it.

15:43

Tommy: No, should we just— I just want to tell about what we're doing also. Um, Right here we have the world's hottest gummy bear. So this is called Lil Nitro and it's only one.

15:55

Josh: Sounds like a DJ.

15:56

Tommy: Cost about $10, uh, and has margins. Redfern, probably good margins. We're helping.

16:02

Josh: What do you reckon? What do you reckon the cost price?

16:05

Tommy: Oh, I reckon $3. If you're selling for nearly $10, that's a good margin to make. Okay, I hope it's a good business.

16:12

Josh: Wholesale $3.

16:14

George: Cost.

16:14

Josh: So cost is the cost to make them, Seth?

16:17

Tommy: Oh, cost to make them?

16:18

Josh: Yeah.

16:18

Tommy: 30 cents. Um, the company's called Flamethrower Candy, an American business from St. Louis, Missouri. So, um, I thought I'd get this because we like trying hot stuff. We tried with Hayden Dibb the Flaming Hot Sauce, or whatever it's from. Flaming Hot Sauce?

16:36

Josh: You know what Flaming Hot Sauce is?

16:37

Tommy: It's fucking Alf Stewart's So GoDaddy. Anyway, so let's show Hot Wings.

16:43

Josh: Don't get me started on GoDaddy. Yeah, Venture IP.

16:45

Tommy: That's where it's at. Hot Wings. They do their own version of their hot sauce. We tried that. I found it quite hot. You were very good at it. Anyway, so I put this up on Instagram and I said, out of Josh and I, who do you think should do it? Vote. Have you seen?

17:02

Josh: But you also said vote for Josh.

17:04

Tommy: I never said vote for Josh.

17:05

Josh: In brackets, you said vote for Josh.

17:07

Tommy: No, I didn't.

17:08

Josh: Yeah, you did.

17:08

Tommy: I've got the post here.

17:09

Josh: Perfect. I think you've forgotten.

17:12

Tommy: That's what it said. Who do you want to see eat this on Friday's show?

17:16

Josh: Do you have the one before that?

17:18

Tommy: I've got them all. They're all, um, archived.

17:19

Josh: Yeah.

17:21

Tommy: Here's what I need your help with. Who out of Josh and I is gonna have to eat this thing? The next photo, I need you to vote. Who's it gonna be, Josh or myself, eating the world's hottest gummy bear on the show this Friday?

17:36

Josh: Wait, just close it.

17:37

Tommy: That was it.

17:38

Josh: Did you remember seeing it saying vote for Josh?

17:41

Tommy: No, I would never say vote for Josh. Anyway, you're only saying that because Facebook— it was a landslide loss for you, JJ. A landslide loss coming in at 63%. All right.

17:56

Josh: So can I have at least have a Lamington first?

17:59

Tommy: Yeah. So we need to state because you got here this morning and you said—

18:03

Josh: well, I was feeling very sick, very nauseous.

18:06

Tommy: And I don't know if I can do the gummy.

18:08

Josh: I smell these, smells like cake.

18:11

Tommy: It does, and they're chips.

18:12

Josh: It's so confusing.

18:14

Tommy: Anyway, so are you, are you saying you were going to eat it?

18:16

Josh: Yeah.

18:17

Tommy: Oh wow, like they look dirty, the chips. Let me have one. You do, you have a little crunch and then I'll— you do your review while I eat. Okay.

18:24

Josh: Um, they're fine.

18:28

Mason: Do they taste like Lamington sandwich?

18:30

Josh: Something you'd get overseas where they're tricking the sweet and savoury thing.

18:33

Tommy: Dude, they taste like Lamington.

18:35

Mason: Really?

18:36

Tommy: Yes, they do.

18:37

Mason: That's impressive.

18:38

Tommy: They're really like a Lamington.

18:40

Josh: It reminds me— oh, it reminds me, you just threw one at my subs, missed. Um, it actually reminds me of being a kid.

18:46

George: Oh wow.

18:47

Josh: Because I'd be eating the chips and lambing, like I'll just shove my face, right, like shuffle shit in my face. And so anyway, so we're having the Lamingtons, but now it's time, right?

19:00

Tommy: A bit of psychology. Do you think, um, uh, your girlfriend voted for me, you voted for you, I voted for you, my girlfriend voted for me?

19:13

Josh: Yeah. What did your wife vote? That's a joke. Um, anyway, so here we have it. So this is, this is the little Nitro The world's—

19:28

Mason: Lil Nitro.

19:29

Josh: What did I say?

19:29

Tommy: Little.

19:30

Mason: Lil.

19:33

Josh: Lil Nitro, the world's hottest gummy bear. Warning: hyperbolic. Okay, looking at the nutrients, not much to it.

19:42

Tommy: Can you show me?

19:42

Josh: Consumer beware, this is not your ordinary gummy bear. Yeah, so a lot of, a lot of, a lot of flames.

19:48

Tommy: The scariness is that there's one in there, like there— it's just this one lone gummy bear that is going to blow your head off.

19:55

Mason: 3 grams.

19:56

Tommy: Someone said, could— should you— you should split it between the 3 of you. And I said, absolutely not. No, I want full effect of the gummy.

20:04

Josh: I actually— I'm very good with spicy. Should we have water on standby?

20:07

George: No, no, no, no.

20:08

Mason: So I've got the rules here. What?

20:11

Josh: What the fuck are you talking about?

20:12

Mason: There's no rules. No, that's on their website. Okay, so Lil Nitro must be fully chewed. Once eaten, you must go without relief until the heat subsides.

20:21

Tommy: Okay, go without relief until the heat subsides.

20:26

Josh: So it can't be that dangerous.

20:27

Tommy: Well, it says keep out of reach of children.

20:30

Josh: Children are fucking—

20:31

Mason: 900 times hotter than a jalapeño pepper.

20:36

Josh: So the real trick is getting it open.

20:39

Tommy: Oh no, this is the same when we had the games last time.

20:42

Mason: Oh no, God.

20:44

Tommy: Okay, I'm just filming this.

20:45

Josh: Okay, so, so, smell.

20:47

Tommy: Yeah, show it to me. Shout out to the camera.

20:50

Josh: Okay, so it's got a— it smells hot.

20:53

Tommy: Can I have a sniff? Yeah, it does. It sort of tickles the nostrils.

20:58

Josh: Yeah, that could be my fingers as well.

21:02

Tommy: These guys, this could be—

21:04

Josh: yeah, maybe we— no relief, they said. Yeah, okay, it's all right.

21:15

Tommy: What do you feelin', big guy?

21:17

Josh: All right— anything spicy?

21:20

Tommy: Spicy!

21:21

Mason: Is it fully chewed or still going?

21:22

Tommy: Still chewing. Can you open your mouth please? No, show it, show it... Open wide okay all right what are you feeling guys?

21:30

Josh: It's hotter than the one that we did today.

21:33

Tommy: Hahaha!

21:37

Josh: It's hotter, it's definitely hot yeah yep yep yep yep yep yep yep yep it's hot actually you know what I've got a problem What?

21:47

Mason: You're gonna shit yourself.

21:48

George: Nah. What?

21:49

Josh: Reflux, vomit. Hang on.

21:51

Tommy: Oh, you reckon that could happen? Get Barefoot's bucket.

21:54

Josh: Get Barefoot's bucket.

21:57

Tommy: Have you swallowed it all?

21:58

Josh: Not yet.

22:00

Tommy: Still there? Oh yes. If you've just tuned in, uh, Josh is eating the world's hottest gummy bear. So a little bit red you are. His tongue a bit hot.

22:14

Josh: Thank you.

22:15

Tommy: He's got the bucket. Okay, his eyes are watering. It must be really hot because JJ can handle his spice.

22:24

Josh: So my whole tongue's numb.

22:27

Mason: I might just get some water on standby for once it's subsided.

22:30

Tommy: Oh, good idea. Thanks, Sevs.

22:33

Josh: My tongue.

22:35

Tommy: Can you show me your tongue, please? Oh, talk me through how you're feeling.

22:43

Josh: Like, I'm funny. No, but like, explain. So the size of my mouth, size of my tongue.

22:51

Tommy: Yeah.

22:52

Josh: Where the— I'm just so pissed at Hayden.

22:56

George: Why?

22:57

Josh: Because he brought in a hot sauce and it wasn't hot.

23:01

Tommy: And this is—

23:01

Josh: this is really hot. Look at my eyes.

23:05

Tommy: Yeah, they're a bit watery. It's such a weird thing. Because you, you, you're there, but you're just experiencing something that we don't understand right now.

23:16

Josh: So it's a bad, bad podcast.

23:19

Tommy: My mouth feels great. No, you're not allowed anything until it subsides. This is the rules of the game. So I've got 2 water.

23:25

Josh: Sevs and TJ, can you talk for a bit?

23:27

Tommy: Which, you know what, water's meant to be the worst thing. He's really, really getting through it good. He's been through a world of pain this week, this guy. Uh, first it's his ankle, then he's really— he's battling it.

23:43

Mason: Do you reckon you're actually going to throw it? Oh, you don't want to talk?

23:45

Tommy: No, he doesn't want to talk.

23:47

Mason: Okay, that's fair.

23:47

Tommy: Seth, do you— would have you done it if you got voted? No, no, no. What about if you— the people spoke?

23:51

Mason: No, no, no, that's a nightmare. I don't— just looking at Josh, I don't want to do that.

23:55

Josh: I want to see Seth's jaw.

23:57

Mason: Oh yeah, I was having hiccups. I was having a mild meltdown with that other With Dibs Hot Sauce. Yeah, I wouldn't have been— I would— yeah.

24:05

Tommy: If a child got this, can you just nod, Josh? Would that— would you need to take him to intensive care? Yeah.

24:12

Mason: Is baby gonna have to go to intensive care?

24:15

Josh: No, I'm fine.

24:19

Tommy: My nose, it's quite funny. Is anyone— he's got sweat beads on his nose. Is anyone commenting?

24:25

Mason: No, no. Gemma says hello. You've taken this like a champ, Josh.

24:29

Josh: Thank you.

24:31

Tommy: Is it starting to lessen now?

24:34

Josh: Um, nah, it's like going more in the back of my throat.

24:38

Tommy: Okay, so you just, you just totally feeling it now?

24:40

Josh: And so my nose like is watering.

24:42

Tommy: Oh, your eye's watering? It really is full tear. That's a full tear.

24:48

Josh: And my nose— I don't want to touch my face.

24:53

Mason: No, that's a bad idea. Don't touch your face.

24:55

Tommy: Just look at the teardrop. This is actually great. Oh, how good's Fat Fridays, guys? I'm so glad I got that. It was such a last-minute decision too of getting it.

25:10

Mason: Oh, anyway, I'm just trying to find out how long this is going to last.

25:14

Tommy: It should last.

25:16

Josh: Do you reckon I wipe my face?

25:18

Tommy: You can wipe the face. Not with the hand.

25:19

Mason: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

25:20

Tommy: So when I— when Amy and I first got together We're in Sydney at these markets and I tried this hot sauce and I was like, yeah, I'm good with the sauce. And it was the hottest sauce I've ever fucking tried. Yeah, that— it's bad when you're burping when you haven't had much liquids. Chance of vomiting or nah? Nah, nah, I think this is fun.

25:45

Josh: It's— that's— see, yeah, that's what It's real. It's just like it puts in perspective the thing that Hayden had.

25:53

Tommy: I thought you're gonna say life.

25:55

Josh: It's, uh, so better or worse than your ankle pain-wise? Yeah, I mean, this is a— this is— oh, it's hard to tell. Same.

26:08

Tommy: Out of 10, what is the— what is the spice level?

26:11

Josh: Spice level, I reckon it's a 9.

26:15

Mason: Wow.

26:16

Josh: So it could go like How many Scovilles, whatever it's called?

26:21

Tommy: Oh yeah, should say on here. So that's like the reading, 9 million Scoville.

26:26

Josh: And so what's the equivalent of extract?

26:29

Tommy: The extract making him 900— so it's chilli extract making him 900 times hotter than jalapeño pepper.

26:36

Josh: So it's the burping I'm worried about. So where do we go from here?

26:42

Mason: Oh, would you say 9 million?

26:44

Tommy: 9 million Scovilles, which is—

26:48

Mason: okay, so there's only 2 left on the list.

26:52

Josh: What, 2?

26:53

Mason: Which are 2 things that are hotter. So this is above pepper spray, and this is—

26:57

Josh: you gotta be fucking kidding me. I guess it's not going in my eyes.

27:01

Mason: Yeah, and this is above the Carolina Reaper.

27:04

Tommy: Oh yeah, that's a death. Hey, um, what goes in must come out.

27:10

Josh: Oh, it's gonna be sore. You're referring to my bum hole? Yeah, you can't help but have a nice hot curry and it sort of—

27:17

Tommy: yeah, you pay the price the next day, that morning, or that, you know, that night.

27:22

Josh: Yeah. What do I need? Dairy maybe?

27:25

Mason: No, no, no.

27:26

Josh: Dairy is good.

27:27

Tommy: Dairy is the better thing, but just have some water and then just hit that hard.

27:31

Mason: Yeah. Jake Jansen says, just lie, Joshie. Yeah, totally subsided. Yeah, that's what he reckons you should do.

27:38

Josh: Just like, just fake it till you make it.

27:39

Mason: And then Olivia says, feels Feels real bad for Josh right now.

27:43

Josh: Thank you.

27:44

Tommy: So I, um, was listening to some spiritual podcasts and about a guy who was into psychedelics, so sort of pioneered the psychedelic movement in relation to spirituality. And, um, he went over to India into the Himalayas, met this guru who had heard that he'd brought LSD with him. And he said, give me it. And so this is someone who's very enlightened, you know, meditates all day most days, doesn't talk much, very powerful individual. And the guy said, give me, give me it. And so he gave him a pill of this. So the guy who's very powerful, the guru, yeah, said, I heard you got medicine. He said, yeah, you know, I love how you sell it in.

28:29

Josh: It's like, yeah, bro, give me the drugs.

28:31

Tommy: No, he was saying, give it to me. Give me the medicine. Because what he was trying to do was find out how to achieve the states of those psychedelic drugs and keep and have a consistent state of that by not using the drugs. And so he'd heard that these gurus over in India and stuff have, have been able to be enlightened or have this elevated consciousness through meditation and their practice, not psychedelics. Anyway, point being is he said, give it to me. Give him one pill. He said, more. Gave him another.

29:01

Josh: It's like me with the gummies.

29:03

Tommy: Gave him 3 very high doses of LSD and he downed them.

29:09

Josh: He shelved them.

29:10

Tommy: No, he downed them. And so he was close to 70. The guy said, you know, he understands LSD, the person who gave it to him. He said, for anyone, that's a lot. For a 70, nearly 70-year-old, that's a fuckload.

29:24

Josh: So it was the guru's party trick. So what happened?

29:26

Tommy: Nothing. So the idea is that he is able to be in control of what would have happened to a normal person flying in another dimension. It'd probably kill you or I. And so what is LSD? I can't tell you that.

29:44

Josh: What does it stand for?

29:45

Tommy: It's a psychedelic. It's a, uh, takes you to a new dimension.

29:49

Josh: What is it, Sebbs?

29:52

Tommy: Are we looking like you trying to go, um So it's a natural—

29:56

Josh: no, is it naturally— is LSD naturally derived? I don't think it is.

30:03

Tommy: How would you make it? Through chemicals and shit? Psilocybin mushrooms?

30:06

Mason: That's a synthetic chemical. Yeah, so it's synthetic, made from a substance found in ergot, which is a fungus that infects rye.

30:13

Josh: Yeah, sounds about right.

30:15

Tommy: Okay, how people work that shit out in the '60s when it was really a thing. Unbelievable.

30:21

Josh: LSD's been around for longer than that.

30:22

Tommy: No, no, but it was, you know, the '60s, the hippie era.

30:25

Josh: When did it— when was LSD started? Because they were using it a lot in like, um, mental health stuff, I think.

30:29

Tommy: The war.

30:30

Josh: Oh yeah, um, anyway, the war, just have some drugs.

30:35

Tommy: Yeah, anyway, so, uh, 1938. I wonder if, um, the guru could handle 9,000.

30:43

Josh: Well, I think I've done— I think I've probably meditated it out. Like, I could have just breathed. It's hard to breathe though when it's this.

30:51

Tommy: You've done well, dude. I mean, we probably shouldn't do much more of the show.

30:54

Josh: Yeah, I think we'll head off.

30:55

Tommy: All right, but it's a quick Fat Fridays and Josh has been done by a 9 million Scoville chili.

31:02

Josh: Uh, hi@thedailytalkshow.com is the email address if you want to email us personally. Tommy@thedailytalkshow.com, Josh@thedailytalkshow.com, Mr97@thedailytalkshow.com. We'll set that up now.

31:13

Tommy: Oh, quickly, just before we go, guys, um, in relation to yesterday's conversation about letting people into our Facebook group, The Daily Talk Show.

31:23

Josh: Yes.

31:23

Tommy: I've received a message. This is the person that I messaged them and said, hey, you almost got it. Answer to Queen Gronk question is Gemma Watts, not Amy. And then you said, is that, is that Amy's friend from America? So I wrote to her and said, almost got it. Queen Gronk is Gemma Watts.

31:42

George: Yeah.

31:43

Tommy: And she said, hi Tommy, okay, so I just wanted to reassure you guys that I fully intend to be an active and engaged listener. The first time I heard the podcast was about a month ago when my boyfriend showed it to me, but I've only just started to be a full-time listener. I've quit my job and I listen full time. He moved back to Boston area 2 weeks ago. He's listened to all your podcasts and he's a hardcore fan, and we like to talk about your podcast over the phone.

32:09

Josh: Oh, that's great.

32:11

Tommy: I would gladly partake in Gronkh penance for answering them wrong. I'm not sure what that means. Also, it's like, uh, she doesn't know Amy, but if you wanted to let her know that I really appreciate what she said in the episode you did recently with her about overthinking and how it can be a strength when you're mindful because it can mean you were thoughtful and considerate. If you wanted to tell her that I think that's a really great takeaway that resonated with me, I'd appreciate it.

32:37

Josh: That's nice.

32:37

Tommy: Well, Michelle, we appreciate you and your boyf.

32:41

Josh: And, um, was it Michelle? Was that the name?

32:42

Tommy: That's her name, yeah.

32:44

Josh: Can I have a look at the profile, please? Yeah, yeah, it's Michelle. Yeah, last name starting with A or L? L. You know, that's right. Okay, okay. All right, guys, that's about the talk show. Uh, Apple Podcast reviews appreciated, we'll read them out on the show.

33:00

Tommy: Back tomorrow with Simon Taylor, comedian.

33:04

Josh: Yeah, we'll see tomorrow, guys.

33:06

George: See you guys.
