Being Romantic

Josh: It's The Daily Talk Show, episode 767.

Tommy: It's weekend banter. What's going on?

Josh: Happy Sunday. Oh yeah, Happy Harry is here.

Tommy: Hello, mate. It is your day. Oh, this is the day that you're not happy, isn't it though?

George: No, I don't like Sundays. I've never really liked Sundays.

Tommy: I like Sundays because it's roast day, and that's a new tradition.

Josh: You know what's a bigger deal than having a roast?

Mason: Oh yeah, uh, not sure.

Josh: Having your girlfriend move to the same city.

Tommy: I love Sundays.

Josh: This is exciting.

Tommy: Sunday, you know, to finish the week. Um, mate, start of the week. How are you feeling, Sebbsies?

Mason: I'm so excited. I actually can't wait.

Josh: So 6 PM, is that when it is?

Mason: Yep.

Josh: Yeah, this evening, uh, you'll be picking Grace up from the airport. We haven't discussed—

Tommy: are we Oh yeah, what's happening?

Mason: Fuck. Yeah, well, so we, yeah, we, I still haven't organised that, but getting home, getting, getting home sorted because we got a rental.

Tommy: Oh, that's right. So you're just going to get your way there. So it will be, it'll be Skybus. And this is a full integration. Skybus is a great service. No, no, it's not.

George: How many bags will she have?

Mason: 2 bags.

George: 2 bags. She's not bringing much.

Mason: No, it's pretty, so like to pack everything into 2 bags, it's pretty solid.

Tommy: When I moved to Sydney, for my beautiful wife Amy. We weren't married then, we were just still a new flame that is just sort of emitting beautiful light and heat. And now that is a fucking blowtorch, that's how much flame there is between Amy and I.

Josh: I was gonna say it's a soy candle that I'm about to run out.

Tommy: Absolutely not, we've got like a full tank of gas just firing. Anyway, I remember I made— there's a video about it actually, and I whacked everything into me Honda Civic and my mum was crying and she, you know, you're going. No, it was a special moment, so I could only imagine what it feels like for Gracie girl. And it is big, but then I had 11 hours to drive and think about it, pulled over for sleep. Got some food, thought about stuff, but it didn't feel like it. Like, you know, when you think about like, oh, I'm moving, it's like, yeah, there is that first moment, but then you're into it. It's like doing anything. Oh, Amy's going back to uni. I didn't tell you guys this.

Mason: Really?

Josh: Is this worth it? Because when I saw last night the psychologist, the psychology degree is like $3,500 now a year. Is she doing psychology?

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: So, they've just done a huge revamp. Have all of uni degrees. Comms degrees are going to go up double. It's going to cost around $14,000.

George: That's ridiculous.

Tommy: Oh, we haven't spoken price. It's all hex and it will take many years because it's one. She's still at a work full time.

Josh: She signed up?

Tommy: She's signed up. Officially signed up. Well, hasn't officially locked in, but officially applied.

Josh: Definitely look into those. So, nurses, but if you can lower the amount.

Tommy: Oh, yeah. Oh yeah, definitely.

Josh: Like all of these like main services and the psychology one I felt was very interesting because it's like, well, fuck, if you can do that for $3,500 a year, what's it, less HEX by the end of it?

Tommy: $3,500 a year.

Mason: That's so subsidized.

Tommy: The point though is like for Amos, it's such a big thing. But remember how long it takes to do it. So it's like the first, you know, you've signed up, you're like, it's almost like you want to prevent yourself from getting into the hysteria of like, I've done it. Well, I've just committed to doing it.

George: What now?

Tommy: I have to do the—

Josh: And so, does she want to be a psychologist at the end?

Tommy: Yeah, it will take 10 years or something. You have to, you need to get, you can do the doctorate at the end of it, but it's many years. So, it's...

George: So, in 20 years' time, you'll be living in a mansion.

Mason: I hope so.

Josh: A rental mansion.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, it's, it could take you 10 years, I think, if you were to do a doctorate very much part-time, like one subject a semester.

Josh: And so, what does it work out to be?

George: In terms of what?

Josh: Georgie boy's just walking through there. He's had a beer or whatever.

Tommy: He's sitting on your lap. He's sitting on my lap, mate.

George: Do you want to come sit here? Do you want to take my hot seat?

Josh: No, that's all right. We'll just leave Harry.

Tommy: So he just swans around the office. Now he's—

Josh: I feel like GB really wants his spot back.

Mason: He wants it.

Josh: No, no, no, no, no. But sit up straight, Haz. I don't like when you go low.

Tommy: Tits and teeth. That's what he says.

Josh: That's Harry's word. It's horrendous when it— So anyway, though, this psychology stuff's interesting.

Tommy: It's exciting. But yeah, the other than just me looking for an opportunity to drop in my wife's achievements or, you know, things she's committing to. It's very much like I've been thinking about that sort of like in your head, it's going to be this huge thing. But then for moving, it's the same. It's like, yeah, for the first moment. And then it's like, I'm in it.

Josh: Well, feeling like a holiday to start with.

Tommy: Or goal setting too. Like when you think about getting somewhere, you know, I want to be on telly. I want the 100-episode podcast. You're over it by the time you're there. It's not what you thought it was. But then there's something else different, shiny. It's 1,000 eps. Next minute, it's 10 years. In saying that, episode 800 ain't no—

Josh: Yeah, well, how many?

Tommy: Ain't no time.

Josh: 24th of July.

Tommy: 24th of July. What is it? So it's like 20-something days. 20-something days.

Josh: No.

George: More?

Josh: 30.

Tommy: Okay, so 30 days, like around about a month. Round about a month.

Mason: I think it's like 33 days or whatever.

Tommy: Ep 800, what are we doing?

Josh: I reckon we could—

George: Strippers?

Tommy: Sorry, Harry, I've retired that, mate. Have you been?

George: No.

Josh: Any interest in going?

Mason: No. Okay, not even just to see what the experience is like?

George: No, no interest at all.

Tommy: Okay, fair enough.

Mason: I think it's just curiosity-wise, it'd just be an interesting thing.

Tommy: You too, Mase, you haven't been?

Mason: No, I'd never— no, but I just, I just think it'd be an interesting thing more than anything. Like, how does the whole thing work?

George: Well, the poles spin, that's all I know.

Tommy: Do the poles spin?

George: Yeah, apparently the poles rotate with the stripper. Um, we're talking about it at Theatre Group one night.

Tommy: I feel like Harry's really the only one out of us that can talk about it without sort of getting in heaps of trouble.

Josh: Did you, um, did you ever do the pole thing?

Tommy: As a male stripper?

Josh: Yes.

Tommy: Oh, actually, I can talk about this because I was a stripper.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: Um, no, no, no, but I have spun on one.

Mason: Is it hard?

Tommy: Well, it's— have you ever been on a monkey bar?

Mason: Yeah, but I mean, but that's not a—

Tommy: I haven't done it like a stripper would.

Mason: Oh, okay.

Josh: Have you seen the video of the lady who they had a, um, a stripper pole at her house and it halfway, as she was swinging around, it dislodged like it— Yeah.

George: Oh no.

Josh: Came off the, um, the roof and she fell into it.

Tommy: It was a home job. Yeah, there was also a video.

Mason: It was one of those poles.

Tommy: There must have been in Vegas like a 20-foot pole, and there's this video of this poor girl who fell from the very top. I showed Amy, I was like, someone sent it, I was like, mate, fucking look at this. It is ridiculously high and she falls but then still keeps twerking on the bottom. I was like, oh my God, that's commitment. Like, as one stripper to another, fucking hats off.

George: I could get around like the silks, you know, when you're dangling off silks.

Josh: They have that at Virgin Active.

Tommy: You know, you guys can go and do pole dancing. We could go and do it as a fun— I would love to do pole dancing. Would you, Haz?

George: Yeah, I'd like to give it a go. I've got— uh, in saying that, maybe not, just thinking about my upper body strength. I've got no upper body strength. Never could do the monkey bars as a kid.

Tommy: Uh, handstand?

George: No, never been able to do a handstand. I'm appalling with my health. I'm just, I'm skinny as a twig.

Tommy: JJ, could you do a handstand?

Josh: Supported against the wall?

Mason: I couldn't hold a handstand.

Tommy: Yes, you could.

Mason: No, no, no.

Tommy: If you can do a chin-up, you can do a handstand.

George: Nah.

Josh: Can we do an Insta story?

Tommy: You could do a muscle-up.

Mason: Yeah, I can, I can try. I can do How long do you want to stay at the handstand for?

Tommy: It's more just 4 seconds.

Josh: Split second or just 4 seconds? Yeah. 1, 2, 3.

Mason: Okay. I mean, we can try it, but I don't think—

Josh: We'll give it a go. So, going back to Grace, for people who have just started listening, Mr. 97, he's a producer on the show. He— Who are you? I'm Josh.

Tommy: And I'm Tommy. And this is the Daily Talk Show. And so— What a resetting like that is.

Josh: You've got to— So, Mr97 found the love of his life online. Grace, she is part of the Gronk Squad. She's been listening to the show for over a year.

Tommy: She's real and she's a sweetheart.

Josh: And so, Grace is moving. You've never met in real life.

Mason: No.

Josh: And so, Grace is moving from Perth to Melbourne. And next week you are having the first ever annual leave that you've ever had because this is your first ever job.

Mason: Yep.

Josh: And this is your first ever girlfriend.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, a lot of firsts.

Josh: And so you, yeah, you're fired. You are very fired up. And so, um, what's the experience like? Explain how you're feeling. What's that? What's been the, uh, the emotional roller coaster in the last couple of weeks?

Mason: Uh, I mean, yeah, I mean, it's a mixture of stuff. Like, there's, there's so much excitement, and it's like you spend all this time on FaceTime, so it's so nice to just be able to, you know, touch. Yeah, just, I just, yeah, just to be able to be with each other that's not through a screen will be so nice.

Tommy: Um, yeah, I'll be able to go to bed earlier, which is good because you've been FaceTiming.

Josh: So, like, you know, if Grace Is okay with going to bed early?

Mason: We set a 10:30 curfew.

Tommy: Bedtime.

Mason: Yeah.

Josh: A curfew.

Tommy: Beddy-byes.

Josh: You're running a tight ship.

Mason: Well, I pushed for 10, but then I had to compromise for 10:30 because she likes staying up late.

Josh: Wait, so that means going, being in bed by 10:30?

Mason: I mean, so this was the thing because I wanted to be in bed by like 9-ish, 9:30, and then turning off the lights and going to sleep at 10. But I think it's more just like you're in bed at 10 and then lights out at 10:30.

Josh: Have you got like a bucket list or things? So you're going to Blairgowrie at the Beach House.

Mason: Yeah.

Tommy: I know we've been getting some messages from, what's it called? The Beach House.

Mason: Beach House.

Josh: Yeah.

Tommy: On Instagram. I didn't open them. What's going on? All good before you leave? Like everything all locked and loaded?

Mason: I think Rod was just saying how much he appreciated the good audio on our podcast.

Josh: Oh, great. Thanks.

Mason: That was literally, it was just this. It's the only podcast he listens to where he doesn't have to change the volume all the time. Thank you, Rod.

Tommy: That's nice.

Josh: So, and so, yeah, what's the, um, sorry about that, Stan. No, like, now I'm—

Mason: That wasn't me, was it?

George: It was me. I hit my chin on it.

Josh: Okay, try not to. Um, so the bucket list, like, what's on, on your mind? What's the, the next week going to involve?

Mason: I don't know. I mean, we haven't, we haven't gone through a bucket list of, of what we want to do, but I think it was just, you know, going on walks, going to the beach, just cooking, all that sort of stuff.

Josh: What are you going to cook, Grace? Have you—

Tommy: you haven't spoken to someone? I know what he's gonna cook.

Josh: You bring the zoodle maker to Blagowra.

Mason: That's a good point.

Tommy: Are you doing those fucking nachos with quinoa?

Josh: I can't wait for you to get a call from your dad being like, you've taken the fucking zoodle maker and— Definitely.

Mason: Like, yeah, you know, Chairman Rick's not happy.

Tommy: Yeah.

Mason: No, I mean, poached eggs, that'll definitely be a thing.

Josh: You're gonna do them in red wine like Gordie?

Mason: Just a bit of white wine vinegar.

Tommy: Mm-hmm.

Josh: That's why we didn't swirl it.

Tommy: Yeah, white vinegar.

Mason: Yes. You don't need a swirl with vinegar, you just leave it. You should, as long as it's boiling, it's fine.

Josh: It's good to swirl.

Tommy: Oh, this is nice. Tell us about a cute time, Josh, from your relationship in the early days of just that sort of young love.

Josh: Um, let's think. There's so many, there's so many examples. Bree's just sitting on the couch waiting, waiting for a roll. Valentine's day.

Tommy: What year?

Josh: Um, 2010. Yeah, uh, maybe 2009 actually. 2009, I reckon. And, uh, I was picking her up from her place and, uh, she got to the passenger side where she was going to, um, be getting into the seat, and in the seat belt was a little stuffed Bear.

Tommy: Oh, how big? Little. Little bear. How little?

Josh: How big little? Size doesn't matter. Like, it wasn't— Didn't really matter.

Tommy: It's still strapped in, though.

Josh: Yeah, I strapped him in.

Mason: Okay.

Josh: And just on the bottom belt. Yep. Okay. And the bear in his arms was a McDonald's cheeseburger. That's great.

George: That's lovely.

Tommy: Was it the way to Bree's heart?

Josh: Bree loved it.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: That's very cute.

Josh: Yeah. So, there was that. What stands out for you?

Tommy: I just got a text message from George, who's on the couch next to Bree, and he said Bree told him this storey 2 days ago. So I'm wondering, was Bree driving? Were you the one?

Mason: No, you told me that storey 2 days ago as well.

Josh: No, it's a fresh story. The listeners haven't heard the storey yet.

Tommy: What about something that's not on a day that was like obviously special, that you just did something special? Because special things don't have to rely on special days. Shawn, take notes, Ev.

Josh: Let me think. It's definitely stuff.

Tommy: Um, once, um, it's all about just taking notes, Ev. Just take a note. I mean, she's moving to Melbourne, so what have you done? One time, well, we were doing— so there was the long distance thing, but we were seeing each other. So, Ev, you're FaceTiming, but Amy and I were having weekends together, and but it would get to the Sunday and it's a bit sad because it's like, oh, we're gonna leave now, I'm flying back to Melbourne. And so I was a bit sad, and then I had to go back to Shepparton. And once she was mentioning something about shoes and we got on this, you know, it's like chocolate shoes. I don't know, we just somehow got onto chocolate shoes. I don't even know the origins of it, but I knew there was something special there. And she loves chocolate and she loves shoes. And then I saw at David Jones in Sydney, the fancy one in Bondi Junction, chocolate shoes. And they were like, probably like mini, maybe 5 centimetres long.

Josh: Like big?

George: They can't be practical.

Tommy: No, no, no. Edible chocolate shoes. And they were like, it was almost like 5 centimetres long.

Josh: The thing is, was it strapped inside the safety? I said the small teddy and you're like, was it big? Like you were obsessed with, like you were. That ruined my storey because I couldn't say anything.

Mason: You should have just pumped it up. You got a big teddy.

Josh: No, it wasn't that big.

Tommy: I just really wanted to know how you strapped it in if it was really small. How's that any, like—

Josh: Just the bottom. And so anyway, you got the 5 centimetre, which is very small.

Tommy: Quite small, but still shoes and very sort of connected to what we were talking about. And so I bought them when she was having a nap. And brought them back to the house, hid them in a shoe cupboard out the back. And so when I left and I was back in Melbourne, I was like, have you found anything? She's like, no. And so it backfired slightly because it took her a day and a bit.

Josh: It's so small.

Mason: Just melted.

Tommy: No, they're out the back. And anyway, she found them.

Josh: Fuck.

Mason: With a little bit of prompting.

Tommy: With a little bit of prompting.

Josh: That's nice. I feel like, fuck, this is a reminder I need to— I think I'm a romantic guy. But nothing is coming to mind.

Tommy: Of romantic things.

Mason: I can see you being a romantic guy.

Tommy: Here's the thing, guys. I think the romanticness can come out, like you've been in a relationship for 13 years. Forget about it. I'm joking. No, I'm joking. But it is effort. Being romantic in the early days is the easy bit. So, if you're not romantic in the early days, you fucked up because it only gets harder. Life becomes normal. Living together, sleeping together, all that becomes normal. And so you got to dig deep when you're sort of in the trenches, you know.

Josh: I think like a slightly romantic thing was I surprised Bree with, we'd been wanting to go to the US.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: And I bought the tickets and surprised her on Christmas.

Tommy: That's a good, that's fucking, that's real good.

Josh: But the I mean, the sort of the downside was that part of the reason that we hadn't booked them was she was worried about asking her work for the annual leave. And so I sort of forced her hand. So it was sort of like there were conversations.

Tommy: But I haven't asked for annual leave.

Josh: Yeah, it was like, yeah. And so she was, she asked if we could change them. I said, no, we can't. She ended up leaving that place.

Tommy: Amy and I had a saying which was like, it was cute as fuck. Cute as fuck.

Mason: Cute AF.

Tommy: Yeah, but I got her, I got her a singlet printed, screen printed, that said cute as fuck. I think she still has it.

Mason: She hasn't taken it to the cleaners.

Josh: I got her a nice purse from Milligramme. She gets compliments all the time. It's green.

Tommy: That's nice.

Mason: That's nice.

Josh: What other things? Harry, have you ever done anything romantic?

George: No. Um, no, I don't think I have. Oh, I got theatre mum a gift voucher for wine once, but it came with a Kogan delivery. Does that count? It was like buy 100 bottles, spend $100 on wine through Kogan, and you get $5 off.

Mason: Oh, so it's just you got it, you got a freebie voucher and you just—

George: Yeah, so I gave it to theatre mum.

Tommy: Oh, I might— I mean, I peaked at my proposal, which I guess is a classic because I, I had to get I had a talent agent in on the case. I get a fake email drawn up to be able to show— drawn up as in sent to me, sorry, not even drawn up, written up, sent to me by this lady who helped. And I showed her, I was like, mate, landed a gig, gotta go to Sydney.

Josh: The sad reality, didn't have a gig, had no gig.

Tommy: And so I said, oh look, I've been booked. I was booked on, um On Qantas.

Josh: I think you're gonna say on Neighbours. I thought you— oh no, no, no, no, no.

Tommy: I said I had to MC an event, so it was super low level. So it was like almost believable. It's like they're just paying for the flights. I've had that before where I've been paid, you know, to go and stay somewhere and do that. And so she— I knew that would not throw her off, you know, she wouldn't start sort of thinking, what the fuck? And she gets to go home to Sydney to see her mates. So I was like, great, I need to book her on a separate flight that's not Qantas. Because I told her that I'd been booked on Qantas. I was like, I'll book you, I've been able to book you the same time, but just with Virgin.

Josh: Tiger.

Tommy: And maybe it was. I think I went Virgin. I think I went Virgin, but at the same time. And so she had no idea. And so I had the idea of where I wanted to do it, where we first sort of started sitting when we were hanging out together. And yeah, we just got a cab to the spot and I was so nervous. I was like, let's just go get a hot chocolate from this nice place I know you like. Bike, and then we're gonna kill a bit of time before we get to this place in Double Bay. I told her that's where we had to meet because her— the woman's office who sent the email to me is in Double Bay. So it was nothing— nothing in her head. And then we went to the beach, into this, into this spot on the harbour, and did it there. But I packed her favourite dress for that night, and I, and I had known that we were going to go celebrate this area and we got her friends to come. And so it was like we hadn't told them. So there was the multiple surprises. Amy got the surprise of the engagement and then we hadn't told her mates, but we're like, oh, we're staying here. You should come. We're drinking on the rooftop looking over the Sydney Harbour.

Josh: You love rooftop drinking.

Tommy: It's fucking so good. Am I right, George? George is nodding.

Mason: It's real.

Tommy: It's real good. As if you didn't like drinking at the rooftop at The Standard in New York City looking over the Hudson River?

Josh: It was nice.

Tommy: It was lovely. I reckon you'd appreciate it too more now because you're pisshead.

Josh: Yeah, sure. There can be little romantic things.

Tommy: Yeah, it doesn't all have to be big stuff. That's why I did the shoes thing and that—

Josh: Like, I didn't feel like Thai the other weekend but Bree felt like Thai so we had Thai. So, compromise.

Mason: Yeah.

Tommy: I mean, I'm not—

Mason: That's romantic.

Tommy: I'll give it 'cause you got to do that. You've got to dig deep. What's like, it's like in the trenches, but Sev's needs, it's the bedtimes.

Mason: I compromise.

Josh: Yeah, but so where's, what's some big level romance that you can do?

Mason: Um, yeah, I mean, have you been taking note, mental note?

Tommy: Yeah, just like things she likes. What?

Josh: Yeah, actually a bit depressed at how little I've done for Bray. I feel bad.

Tommy: The US thing was definitely highly beneficial for you at that point. Yeah, no, but it's my problem too because I'm like, fuck, sweetie, you would love this this, but it's like, I know I'll fucking love it too. And so the, the—

Mason: well, I get the problem with like, I don't, I don't like doing surprises because I always reveal them. Like, I just can't. I can't keep a surprise.

Josh: I'm the same.

Mason: Yeah, it's so annoying. I just, it's— I'd rather them know, you know, because then you don't have to worry about making like—

Josh: Bree's feeling bad for me. She's now texting me things that I've done.

Tommy: No, this is good because no, but maybe you are the big cutie that you don't even think that you're doing the cutie thing.

Josh: Yeah, well, I wanted to book us Miley Cyrus tickets and I asked her boss for her to take the Friday off to go to Sydney.

Tommy: Oh, this is right.

Josh: I've heard this storey before. And her boss said no.

Tommy: But you did. So it didn't happen.

Mason: But you made the effort.

Tommy: What about?

Josh: We ended up going the next time. I think we saw Miley in Melbourne.

Tommy: We're not trying to get Josh into a corner. That's not what we're doing.

Josh: I'm trying to think the other. I mean, the proposal's an easy one because it's designed.

Tommy: It's the shoe thing. But what I'm saying is I'm also saying, I'm also saying no, but the caveat for me is that that was early days of a long-distance relationship where we were seeing each other and it's early day relationship. You're trying to woo and do things. What have I done? What can I pull on? At the moment.

Josh: I don't know, it's just maybe on Thursdays I'm now getting the coffees in the morning.

George: Sorry, I just lost it. I don't know why I found that so funny.

Tommy: Can we just— Okay, if we're all useless in the current state, not early day relationship, because I'm sure you guys have been together. Yeah, I was—

Josh: I mean, I did— I called love song dedications.

Mason: I did.

Josh: What about—

Tommy: Yeah, that's great. What about the, um, you went to You went to Victoria's Secret or the perfume joint when you were young?

Josh: Oh yeah.

Mason: Oh, you did the parties?

Josh: No, I bought Bree underwear from her boss. She was working at Bras and Things and Bree thinks that this is highly embarrassing, but I went to her boss and said, hey, I want to get a little something something. And it was a little— it was slightly weird because it was sort of— it was her dad's wedding and I surprised her with some jewellery and a red G-string.

Tommy: Here's what you're wearing tonight, sweetie.

Josh: Yeah, yeah.

Tommy: How old were you?

Josh: Yeah, I was 18.

George: Just for the reception party after the wedding.

Tommy: If you can raise the money, man.

Josh: Oh, that's good.

Tommy: But then what— so what is something— so what makes up a romantic moment? It is thoughtfulness. It's putting someone before you. It's thinking about something they would love before what you would love. That's my problem. I do the shit where it's like—

Josh: it's a joint thing. Like, there's so many romantic moments. On our world trip.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah.

Josh: But it was all based on like, oh, we both want to go to Slovenia or we both want to do these things. Slovenia. I went to Slovenia.

Mason: Great place.

Josh: Lake Bled. Beautiful.

Tommy: Yeah. I mean, throw a kid into it too. It's pretty—

Josh: In Lake Bled?

Tommy: No, no, no. I mean, just into the, into the romance debacle that relationship is. No, I think it is a debacle later in life.

Josh: Like, How can we? No, I want to pick this up. I want to fix this.

Tommy: Yeah, that's what I want to do.

Josh: Let's do it. What could we do? I could make the bed in the— Like, so there's all the real small things, but they're all very admin-y. I think there's like—

Tommy: Because I think we all like a weekend away, booking a restaurant. Like, for you as a big gronk, it's like Bree coming home and you've cooked, you've put in the effort to cook her a beautiful meal. And Bree knows that you're a bit of a pain in the ass when it comes to cooking.

Josh: And I've cleaned. That would be the big thing. I think the other thing too is—

Tommy: That you cook what she loves. Nothing— You don't even like it. You don't even want to.

Josh: It would literally be—

George: You cut your finger off.

Josh: No, it'd be slicing onion, you know, 3 fingers. The, um, uh, no, the— what I was going to say was, um, the, the, the, the onions is actually an issue. A bit rattled. The onions, like, Bree wants me to always cut the onions because she cries every single time. And sort of, it's almost like a big dork that wears goggles.

Tommy: Yeah, I said we should get goggles, but I know, I think your high waist pants.

Mason: Does that do anything? Does it go through your nose?

Josh: No, no, no.

George: You put bread in your mouth, you get a slice of bread and you sit it in your mouth.

Tommy: Harry, it's in sourdough.

Mason: Sourdough would be nice.

George: Yeah, you have it hanging out of your mouth and it absorbs all the fumes before they get to your eyes.

Josh: There you go.

Tommy: Okay.

Josh: Oh, I remember I, um, oh, this is, yeah.

Mason: Did you remember it or did you remember it when Bree just He's just texted me.

Tommy: I wish I had my producer, I mean my partner here.

Josh: Now you've got Jess to write emails for you.

Tommy: Yeah, yeah, Jess, what have I done romantically?

George: Um, called Jess babe in a meeting.

Josh: Sorry, it wasn't—

Tommy: it was in context.

Josh: It was fine, I think it was fine.

Tommy: I called Mason bitch in a meeting. That seems to go down fine.

Josh: No, so what I did do was I, um, Harry, you weren't even in that fucking meeting.

Tommy: Who's been talking bullshit down here, by the way?

George: Lots of people.

Tommy: The bitches.

Josh: No, so I actually remember this. It's a bit sly, but when Bree and I were just friends, I got a visual diary. So, you know, like the ones that you get, like a big visual diary, like an 8th grade. You've been pushing for one for years.

Tommy: What are you laughing at, Seb?

Mason: What romantic storey starts with, uh, Bray's just off camera going, it's Josh, it's just mirroring it.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, I can tell the story. Um, no, so the— I feel like my mic's too low, it's annoying the fuck out of me. Okay, there we go. Um, did you just pull it—

Mason: you just pulled it down before, didn't you?

Josh: No, I pulled it up.

Mason: Okay.

Josh: Um, no, so what happened, so I had this visual diary. And I, and it was black and I used a metallic pen and I wrote in it. This is before Bri and I were dating. I drew like a mind map and it started off with like, how do I get Bri as my girlfriend? And I did all of these arrows. I'm sure it was like real sad stuff.

Tommy: Like, hang on, where was Bri? Does she know about this fucking mind map?

Josh: Well, yeah. So, this is the thing.

Mason: It is very cute. So, I did this mind map.

Josh: And then I just put it somewhere where she would eventually find it.

Mason: Which was where?

Josh: Where did you— I was just under the bed. And then I'm pretty sure I was like, ah, we should do our studio arts, and can you just go get my— oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, not that book, not that book, no, no, no, no, no, no. So what's in this book? I'm like, no, don't look at the book. She opens it, oh my God, what is this? It's a mind map. What sort of mind map was I just love you and I've drawn a possible roadmap of how we could be together.

Tommy: It's a Gantt chart, Kanban.

Josh: Oh, definitely.

Tommy: It's a— In progress timeline.

Mason: Definitely a Gantt chart.

Tommy: Yeah.

Josh: So that was slightly— So I did that. But no, I've— To do. Romance, romance, romance. Let's just spend 30 more seconds on this.

Tommy: Okay. What would something romantic be that you would like Bree to do?

Josh: She does it all. Like it's stuff around like, So, the problem with me is that I always go to financial things. So, I always go into like spending, like spending money is my love language. And so—

Tommy: You spending money on Bree?

Josh: Yes. Or just spending money in general.

Tommy: But maybe we're getting to something. It's the love language. What is it for the individual?

Josh: Sure.

Tommy: So, what is it for Bree? What do you think Bree appreciates?

Josh: Quality time and acts of service. And so, if I was to go get a coffee, that would be a win if she was—

Tommy: Without being asked.

Josh: Yes.

Tommy: But even like that falls into buying, like doing a Bree, we're not recording shows on Friday. We're going to Daylesford for the weekend.

Josh: I'm very good at that. So, I've always been like, you know what I've been like with weekends. I've always been like, nah, don't do work on weekends, just chill, all that sort of thing. But what's funny, Georgie?

Tommy: Georgie's laughing.

Josh: He's laughing.

Tommy: He's pissed. He's had a few beers.

Josh: I remember every time I would travel, I've travelled a bit. Um, I, uh, where specifically? Well, everywhere. Name a city.

Tommy: Yeah, 13 cities and counting. Anyway, it's more than that. Yeah. All right, sorry about that.

Josh: Uh, no, so San Francisco. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. So you went in San Francisco. That's the story.

Tommy: But you were about to list off everywhere you've been.

Josh: No. So, when I went to San Francisco on the, like, I would went to Macy's. Here's a fun fact. Go to Macy's, give them your passport, they'll give you 15% off, right?

Tommy: Give them your passport?

Josh: Show them your passport and they're like, you're an international traveller, 15% off.

Tommy: What's Macy's?

Mason: Is that like a department store?

Josh: It's like a Myer or something. Anyway, so, I remember I got Bree Nike shoes. It was just, it was almost like a bogan pack. Any time that I would travel, it's like I got her a watch, I got it like all of this stuff. And the funny thing is you can go back through Bree's Instagram, unarchive it if it's been archived. But there is a—

Tommy: I'd love that luxury.

Josh: There is. If only.

Mason: Would be nice.

Tommy: I could love that. In the old days.

Josh: She would take a photo and be like, so good that Josh is home. It's a photo like bed spread with all the shit that I got.

George: Like a flat lay.

Tommy: It's also the sad Instagram of a kid whose parents nonstop travel for work and all they've got to show is the shit that they got when they're away.

Josh: Well, I remember being—

Tommy: It's a real sad movie storyline, isn't it?

Josh: In Singapore, saying that that's what it was, but maybe it had that vibe.

Tommy: But in Singapore, he was fucking having a good time and he's making up with Nike.

Josh: I don't want to say free run Singapore again, but in Singapore, um, when we did that once in a lifetime opportunity, the, uh, the private room, a lot of wealthy people there were used for points. Uh, the guy, there was a guy that was like speaking to his kid on the phone and he's like, remember Oh no, Daddy will buy you whatever you like, whatever you want. What do you want? Like, just tell me now and I'll get like, oh no, come on, speak to Dad. He's like, no, I don't want to speak to him. No, come on, come on. And the kid's like little, he's like, no, what do you want? You know? And I was like, oh, that's, it's a bit sad.

Tommy: MacBook Pro.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Retina display.

Tommy: Absolutely not.

Josh: I want the Touch Bar, but make sure it's got the 1TB SSD because I won't be able to Yeah, iPad Pro with stick, with pencil. Now what's another one? What's another funny thing that you'd get? Well, what's that like if it's something very niche? Um, iPhone 11? Is that what you got? What have you got?

Tommy: I got the iPhone 11 Pro. It's useless, I don't have Instagram, I've got nothing.

Josh: Quad Lock's good though.

Tommy: Quad Lock's great.

Josh: Should be getting my Lock Laces in the next week.

Mason: Oh, that'll be exciting.

Josh: Yeah, so I'll be able to, uh, I did. I don't know if I told everyone, but I've worked out how to tie the shoelaces and not get the knot.

Mason: Really?

Josh: So I was, I was catching—

George: Are you using Velcro?

Josh: No, I'm not. Have you, have you been a Velcro kid?

George: I could imagine. I, I didn't learn how to tie my shoelaces until about year 7, dude, on Fairfax camp, which was an arts camp.

Tommy: Like, think about Bodie's got Velcros now. He's 3.

George: Stay that way.

Tommy: He couldn't have.

Mason: Do you reckon he could do it? No, I reckon you should teach him now.

Josh: I reckon— no way, you have to be what, at least 5 years old?

Tommy: I reckon those kids, yeah, well beyond 5. I think Velcro shoes are sick nowadays for young kids.

Josh: It's good to learn for the parents. I want to get that knot, uh, the knot book.

Mason: Yeah, I reckon grab it.

George: There's an app, get it.

Tommy: But he won't learn. Also, the thing I was taught by my dad so many fucking times how to do a knot, it's like the half hitch You would literally need to be like, okay, Bri, I'm getting up. Sorry, it's not romantic, but I've got not training. Yeah, babe, I've got not training 4:30 to 5. I'll put it in the calendar. I know you like that shit.

Josh: It's true, being organized. Yeah, accepting Cal invites.

Tommy: That's it.

Mason: Yeah, that's romantic.

Tommy: Yeah, it's remembering shit.

Josh: So it would be good. All right, I'm gonna design something romantic to do that I'm gonna do in the next— when's it 3 months?

Tommy: Just do it 3 months ago.

Josh: No, no, we don't know what's happening.

Tommy: You don't need to go big. Go small, go hard. Go this week.

Josh: Okay. As in next one— um, let me think about it and be thoughtful.

Tommy: Could do it today because you think when the week starts—

Josh: so the problem is that anything that I suggest, I feel like it could be deemed— sorry, if I got any form of food delivered It's for you. It's instantly for me. Yeah. So even if it's something you're not okay with.

Tommy: What does Bri like that you don't like that is the most romantic thing?

Josh: And so is that the thing? Is romance about doing something that you don't like?

Tommy: But you probably don't like it. Romance to some degree is selflessness.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: And so it's about like, what does Amy love? What does she—

Josh: What do you think? What could you do for Amy that's romantic?

Tommy: Give her some time by herself.

Josh: She gets that every morning at the moment, doesn't she?

Tommy: She's been doing that. Not this morning. Really? What happened?

Josh: Yeah, buddy ran down.

Tommy: Where's Mummy? I want my Mummy.

Josh: Bree's messaging me again. She's saying booking and going out to dinner.

Mason: That would be nice.

Tommy: Without the bullshit that you spin. But now, so without these, like, you almost need to drop the, like, how long are we gonna be there for? Who are we gonna see?

Josh: Like, making sure we get a table where we don't see anyone.

Tommy: All that.

Mason: Like, you could, you gotta try for that.

Tommy: If you could just understand that it's a visceral reaction. Which it's— and then how can you like go, you know?

Mason: But is it too hard to do? Is it unromantic now? Yeah, because it's been suggested to you.

Josh: Yep.

Tommy: Yeah, definitely.

Mason: You get it because you can't.

Josh: I think there's something— so Bree has been, um, every single morning in the past week—

George: What about blowing up the tyres in the i30? Like pumping up the tyres in the i30.

Mason: Yeah, just change the oil.

Tommy: One thing at a time.

Mason: What about water fluid? Does it need fluid?

Josh: I could, I could actually— that's fucking great. I'm going to put new windscreen wipers because like it's not, it's not the water issue. Bree was saying, uh, during the week when we went to Rowville, she said that the, the whole glass is foggy and she says it's the windscreen wipers.

Tommy: Correct.

Josh: So I need to get windscreen wipers. So I'm going to do that. I'm going to order them.

Tommy: Nah, fuck that. Go to Autobahn, they'll do it for you. $30 out the front. Can you help me?

Josh: What do you think I do about my, um, what do you think I do about my bike? Bree just said just book the car service.

Tommy: Booking it and taking it and complaining.

Mason: It's not romantic, but it is something that Bree always brings up, the fact that you've got to return your AirPods.

Josh: Yeah.

Mason: Oh yeah, not romantic, but I just, I just feel like if you make it, if you make headroom on all these little things things, and it's, it's quite nice.

Tommy: And so what is it? I'm just trying to think of it because I feel pretty inadequate as well. Mother's Day, like, but then that's a day that I've relied on, like, so you take it, you do it. I almost fucked Mother's Day bad, like I nearly did. Like, you do just a bit grumpy and like, no, we can't, you know, we shouldn't be eating pancakes. Like, anyway, it was like, why can't you be fucking making them? I was like, it was really like, I was How did it come up anyway?

Josh: No, it was like, did you say, what do you want for breakfast? And she said pancakes. You're like, no, no, I don't know.

Tommy: I was like, anyway, I was like, I'm being a fucking bitch. I'm being an absolute bitch.

Josh: This is good.

Tommy: And I went down and I made toast, avocado, eggs, scrambled eggs, like pancakes, pancakes, orange juice. Set out a picnic on the table. Bodhi and Amy come down and we all have a picnic. It's called like a picnic breakfast. Were you just telling yourself how she shit is this?

Mason: While you're doing it?

Tommy: No, no, no, it was because I fucking— I was just being a bitch and I was like, no, I just— I felt shit. Like, it was dumb. I was— I better just overrode that feeling. Yeah, it was like, it's not about me. And so— but I had to fucking work at it and I nearly fucked it royally.

Josh: Just imagine you just fucking throwing the pen. There you go.

Tommy: I loved it. That's the thing. The point is you end up like— you enjoy a night out if you've had a good meal. Kashkum badam jun. I mean, that's about you, but it's like Mexican Cantina.

Josh: What about, Bri, do you want to go to Mexican Cantina tonight?

Tommy: But that's, that's, um, is that that romantic?

Josh: She's blown away.

George: I don't think that's romantic.

Mason: Is that a yes?

Josh: What did she say last night, Harry?

George: I don't think she— did she say it was romantic?

Josh: No, but she—

George: well, you went there many, many moons ago.

Josh: What did she say she wanted for dinner? What did she— was she craving?

George: I don't know, but I don't think Mexican Cantina is very romantic.

Josh: No, but what our point is, think about this.

Tommy: So this is it, this is it. What's something that you and Bree did years and years ago? It was amazing.

Josh: And you're like, go to Krispy Kreme's and get fucking 6 dozen and just smash them up.

Tommy: And then shit yourself. Shake till you're taking a dump. Yeah, no, but something where you've been somewhere, where you've driven. Yeah, something there.

Mason: I think your walks.

Tommy: I mean, you connect dots, you connect dots. You need to connect dots from years ago and then just sort of Make the dot a bit bigger.

Josh: Why don't we go, I find out where all her exes live and we drive around. What about a book? A Hollywood tour. A little tour. That's pretty funny, isn't it?

Tommy: Fuckboy tour.

George: What about it like a book, like a photo album book of all the photos?

Josh: So, I did do, so, for Bree's 30th, I did do the big photo.

George: Yeah, but you took them down 3 days later.

Josh: They fell down. Yeah, the Blu Tack didn't stick.

George: Put them in a book.

Josh: That's all right. Well, yeah, we have talked about that.

Mason: Yeah, I think you're— when you go on walks, that's romantic. I'm there.

Josh: But what are you going to do? So what are you going to do? What are you going to do? Like, you need to— this is your time to shine. You need to show Grace what you've done.

Tommy: I think it's easy, but so—

Josh: but he's not explaining any of it.

Tommy: Do I need—

Mason: do I need— I don't need to enter.

Josh: Well, that's the whole thing. You're gonna like— you'll touch and she'll be like, we can talk about it, touch her shoulder and she'll be like, oh, Okay.

Tommy: 99 romantic things to do as a couple.

George: It'll come naturally, Seth.

Mason: I just, it's the things like having, like making brekkie. Like, I think it's those and going on a walk and going for like, you know, a picnic, that sort of stuff.

Josh: And so, you'll clean up as well?

Mason: I'll clean up.

George: What about Kath and Kim? They did hip-hop lessons together.

Josh: What does that mean?

Tommy: I mean, I've done that.

George: Yeah.

Tommy: That's kind of cute. Yeah. Not romantic. Doesn't feel romantic. Romantic, there's like, so let me run you through the 99 romantic things to do as a couple. I won't do 99. I'll just start with maybe 10.

Tommy: It was a two-story house.

Josh: Yeah.

George: And it had a— No, no, no. It was a house and it had three stories. It had a lift in it. And then I go, "Mum, I'm locked in." I was in the lift because Mum specifically told me not to break anything.

Tommy: Yeah.

George: And I was— the real estate agent helped me get out.

Tommy: So, 98, people watch. Sit somewhere outside where a lot of people tend to walk by.

Josh: We could do that.

Tommy: And come up with crazy backstories for people as they pass by.

Mason: Oh, you would love that.

Tommy: Yeah. Yeah.

Josh: That's a big one.

Tommy: Go thrift shopping. This is the ultimate treasure hunt. You never know what you're going to find. And it is a fun thing to do with your partner. And you can share the thrill.

Josh: I feel like the problem with the thrift shopping for me is it becomes this manic thing where I buy 50 books and I'm like, hold these, hold these. And I'm worried that the bloke next to me is going to take them.

Mason: I mean, I reckon I've done that with you.

Tommy: I reckon they're still— I reckon you're being selfish. You're thinking about books. That's what you want from a thrift shop. I reckon it's clothes, though. Like, it's all about— imagine trying on clothes at a thrift shop.

Josh: I'd hate that.

Tommy: Not about you, would Bree love it?

Josh: Bree would hate it too. Thrift shop.

George: Oh, oh, oh, oh, I spend a lot of time on the Time Out website. Royal Botanical Gardens actually have a little gondola. Is that what they're called? Where you have the man up the back steering the boat in the lake at the Botanical Gardens. What about that?

Tommy: Imagine what he's going to look like next week. Yeah, he comes back from holidays just refreshed.

Mason: Yeah, I'll be able to sleep now as well.

Josh: And that's true.

Tommy: Fucking— I doubt it. I didn't sleep much the first couple of years of my relationship. Weekends were all like, you see each other on the weekend, a lot of catching up, a lot of just hanging out, a lot of just being up next to each other sniffing. Smell good.

Josh: I wonder what— I just love to sniff somebody. Isn't that crazy? I think it'll be the first time you smell each other.

George: Yeah.

Josh: Do you know what sort of perfume?

Tommy: No joke, dude. I was into— we had a joke. I was like, I was so into Amy's sniff. I used to call it like she would smell good to me. Amy, just her skin and her smells great.

Josh: I love it. Yeah. Pheromones.

Tommy: That's, I think, what it is, dude. I'm just like, fuck, really into your sniff.

Josh: Smell? Or the shampoo?

Tommy: Could be, but it's all those things. The connection of like her perfume. I'm just like, oh, everything about it.

Josh: Detergent.

Tommy: Right, now you're talking my language.

Josh: Tommy's had a beer.

Tommy: This is my second. Gee, he's just—

Josh: he's loving it.

Mason: Loving them.

Josh: Yeah, thanks Happy for coming on, and thank you. He's gone through and done all of our episodes in IMDB.

Mason: Absolute legend.

Tommy: You in next week?

Mason: Yeah, he looks very confused.

Tommy: Good boy.

George: You're good. Yeah, no, I'm half asleep. I had two coffees yesterday. Worst idea I could have had from Easy Mart. Easymart. I love me Easymart coffee and chai.

Mason: Come on.

George: And they, they know me by name now. I know the fella. How low is that, that you're recognised in your local Easymart?

Tommy: The crazy thing is that I think it's beautiful. Coffee comes from a machine, but yeah, you still manage to know the people there.

George: Yeah, because I always have problem with my tapping on my card. Something—

Josh: oh, try this card away too quick or what?

George: No, it just doesn't register. So I've got to call Bendigo Bank and get a new one. Yeah, I should, I should actually.

Tommy: What's the pushback?

George: I don't think there's any pushback. I just, I'm with Bendigo and I can't be bothered changing, that's all.

Tommy: Let's go to Up.

Mason: Up is great.

Tommy: Yeah, Up is Bendigo.

Mason: I'll send you a referral code.

George: Thank you.

Tommy: Are you dog?

Josh: Did you hear that?

Tommy: Oh, George, can you sign up so I get a fiver?

Josh: Russ Keys was saying that, um, Bank of Melbourne are giving people $50 if they sign up.

George: Oh, I might go Bank of Melbourne.

Mason: Did see that. I think there's potentially a minimum deposit.

George: It.

Tommy: Um, absolutely not.

Mason: But I think the tech's all right. They're also a decent bank just in terms of that, and invest in, um, fossil fuels.

Tommy: So is Bendigo too.

Mason: Yes.

Josh: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Mason: Ben— yeah, Bendigo and Adelaide, which ups connected with— can I use like CommBank and stuff?

George: Can I use multiple referral codes?

Josh: No, no, you get your $5.

Tommy: So George is going to get me $5 and it gets him $5 so we can both get a coffee together.

Mason: Yeah. Oh, we've also got to get the mug supply from, from Dom.

Tommy: Oh yeah.

Josh: Dom, if you're listening, it's a daily talk show. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, everyone, and we'll see you on Monday. Just TJ and I. Yeah, Happy Harry might even join us.

George: Yeah, yeah, I can.

Josh: Okay, great. See you tomorrow, guys. Have a good one.

Tommy: See you guys.
