That's the porn stuff. 02:53.807 --> 02:57.411 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, that's going to get us some listeners. 02:58.031 --> 02:59.353 [SPEAKER_04]: You really know how to pull an audience. 02:59.373 --> 03:02.917 [SPEAKER_04]: I always had a theory they should label those sites with that. 03:02.937 --> 03:04.539 [SPEAKER_02]: I thought they did. 03:04.799 --> 03:05.860 [SPEAKER_02]: But do you know what? 03:05.941 --> 03:06.581 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a podcast. 03:06.621 --> 03:08.123 [SPEAKER_06]: We're going to allow that. 03:08.103 --> 03:08.544 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 03:08.564 --> 03:09.385 [SPEAKER_06]: Let me say that again. 03:09.746 --> 03:09.886 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay. 03:10.167 --> 03:14.133 [SPEAKER_06]: The LGM show at jmail.com got it then. 03:14.955 --> 03:15.636 [SPEAKER_06]: We'd love to hear from you. 03:15.696 --> 03:17.599 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe you heard an interview on our show. 03:17.619 --> 03:22.428 [SPEAKER_06]: Why don't you write to us and say, hey, I heard in a few years ago, I'd love to hear that again, and we'll get it on for you. 03:22.448 --> 03:22.768 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 03:22.828 --> 03:27.276 [SPEAKER_02]: Or you might have a relatable story as to one of the guests we've had on the show. 03:27.256 --> 03:31.122 [SPEAKER_06]: and we will read them out, but let's get to what we've been up to during the week. 03:31.483 --> 03:34.207 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I just told him I might break up to see if he can go. 03:34.367 --> 03:35.148 [SPEAKER_05]: Of course, so I'm done. 03:35.329 --> 03:36.310 [SPEAKER_02]: Go, that's it. 03:37.011 --> 03:51.053 [SPEAKER_02]: I had a real walk down memory lane because we had the family reunion on mum's side and on the laid Anderson's side and the cousins, the derrikes from down the coast. 03:51.033 --> 04:12.889 [SPEAKER_02]: We all started yarning about the days that we'd go down the coast and visit, we'd stay at my aunties place, and then the cousins would come over and we'd all stay in the one house with Auntie Linda, and her place was in Lavraq Road, which is in Norby's Beach, and her backyard backed on to Magic Mountain. 04:12.869 --> 04:17.215 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, remember when they had the little chair lift that went to the top? 04:17.495 --> 04:25.046 [SPEAKER_06]: I lived on the Gold Coast, but I was like to what I think magic mountain in the close down, but every time I would look at that mountain and go, oh, that would be such a wonderful place to see. 04:25.066 --> 04:31.495 [SPEAKER_02]: Mark, growing up in Victoria, you would have possibly seen the ads for it and thought, that is the Gold Coast, we're talking along. 04:31.796 --> 04:34.780 [SPEAKER_02]: See, well, was there, but this is long before you dream well to movie world. 04:34.800 --> 04:37.864 [SPEAKER_05]: And who would have thought a place called Magic Mountain would disappear? 04:37.844 --> 04:47.215 [SPEAKER_02]: No, I can tell you one very horrifying memory was that because we didn't want to pay, we would climb up the cliff. 04:47.396 --> 05:02.434 [SPEAKER_02]: My two older sisters, later in Shona, myself and my cousin Leanne, we would actually climb up the cliff face and get to the top post about six or seven at the time that I remember at one stage day going, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die. 05:02.414 --> 05:03.776 [SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, we'd get to the top. 05:03.877 --> 05:06.641 [SPEAKER_02]: We'd go along and see Arthur Cogland doing his magic shows. 05:06.661 --> 05:06.742 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 05:07.343 --> 05:09.226 [SPEAKER_02]: Getting for free, of course, because we hadn't paid. 05:09.526 --> 05:12.231 [SPEAKER_02]: And then we'd want to get the chair lift to go down to the bottom. 05:12.351 --> 05:13.353 [SPEAKER_02]: And they'd say, where's your ticket? 05:13.573 --> 05:15.316 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, we lost that ticket. 05:15.336 --> 05:16.158 [SPEAKER_02]: I got get on. 05:17.019 --> 05:20.305 [SPEAKER_02]: I think they had a bit of a system going down there. 05:20.285 --> 05:23.330 [SPEAKER_06]: Remember, this was back in the days where parents would just go, where are the kids? 05:24.091 --> 05:24.992 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, no. 05:25.293 --> 05:25.513 [SPEAKER_06]: Fine. 05:25.533 --> 05:26.594 [SPEAKER_06]: Why don't we face or something? 05:26.775 --> 05:29.058 [SPEAKER_06]: They'll be back in time for two. 05:29.078 --> 05:30.440 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, we'll get a call from the hospital. 05:30.460 --> 05:31.141 [SPEAKER_06]: That's right. 05:31.161 --> 05:32.403 [SPEAKER_06]: There was another one of those two things. 05:32.423 --> 05:35.688 [SPEAKER_06]: They'd either be back for two, or they'd get a call from the hospital. 05:36.209 --> 05:37.110 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, that sounds like fun. 05:37.130 --> 05:38.572 [SPEAKER_06]: And what a beautiful memory. 05:39.173 --> 05:42.498 [SPEAKER_06]: My week really consisted of getting our table fixed. 05:42.558 --> 05:43.680 [SPEAKER_06]: We've had this table. 05:44.281 --> 05:44.942 [SPEAKER_06]: And it 05:44.922 --> 05:51.210 [SPEAKER_06]: 10 years ago, I was screwing a light globe in above it, and I had to use some Phillips head screwdriver. 05:51.751 --> 05:55.355 [SPEAKER_06]: I, of course, my wife walked past me about three times and said, I wouldn't be doing that over the table. 05:55.435 --> 05:57.257 [SPEAKER_06]: You're bound to drop it and it didn't the table. 05:57.798 --> 05:59.340 [SPEAKER_06]: It'll be fine, sweetheart. 05:59.360 --> 06:01.002 [SPEAKER_06]: So, go, guess what I did. 06:01.022 --> 06:03.305 [SPEAKER_06]: Drop it, put a huge divot in the middle of the table. 06:03.445 --> 06:05.007 [SPEAKER_06]: Right in the center. 06:04.987 --> 06:20.616 [SPEAKER_06]: and she's made me wear that for 10 years so we got to go around and he came out and he sounded the whole table down, filled it and he could not tell it's there so hopefully that ends the story but it was a lovely man and he his name is part interesting he said like the golf course part 06:20.596 --> 06:27.147 [SPEAKER_06]: And he said to me, said at the end, he said, we built up a bit of a friendship chatting and he said, would you like me to pray for you tonight? 06:27.347 --> 06:29.971 [SPEAKER_06]: And I've gone, oh, I didn't realize you were religious and that's fine. 06:30.813 --> 06:33.597 [SPEAKER_06]: And he said, yeah, yeah, yeah, he said, I've had a lot of stuff going with my life. 06:33.657 --> 06:34.899 [SPEAKER_06]: He said, and this really helps me. 06:34.919 --> 06:36.221 [SPEAKER_06]: And I've gone, great. 06:36.462 --> 06:38.886 [SPEAKER_06]: I've gone, could you pray that I get a job? 06:41.290 --> 06:44.515 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, maybe that's so self-sensitive. 06:44.535 --> 06:45.937 [SPEAKER_04]: Maybe it's just gone for world peace. 06:45.957 --> 06:47.700 [SPEAKER_05]: Like, there's some things even God comes. 06:50.026 --> 06:55.276 [SPEAKER_04]: You've got a well-peasable, you know, save the children of the world, something on, oh, me, me, me. 06:55.497 --> 06:57.040 [SPEAKER_02]: How's that prepping going? 06:57.060 --> 06:58.162 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, not so well, yeah. 06:58.362 --> 07:00.627 [SPEAKER_06]: I wanted to pray a little harder if we possibly could. 07:00.647 --> 07:01.408 [SPEAKER_02]: Isn't that good? 07:01.428 --> 07:02.009 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's very fair. 07:02.029 --> 07:05.256 [SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, as far as getting a new table, do what I do, roadside pickup. 07:05.276 --> 07:07.039 [SPEAKER_02]: There's always something available. 07:07.340 --> 07:08.422 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, all right. 07:08.442 --> 07:09.303 [SPEAKER_06]: Look, that was our week. 07:09.403 --> 07:11.687 [SPEAKER_06]: We're going to get to our first interview in just a moment. 07:11.747 --> 07:13.289 [SPEAKER_06]: And it is a great interview with Rod Stewart. 07:13.309 --> 07:15.613 [SPEAKER_06]: I think in it, you talk about his hair or something. 07:15.633 --> 07:16.755 [SPEAKER_02]: I think it's quite incredible. 07:16.815 --> 07:21.562 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, after reading it in the book, that there's something very special he does to keep that. 07:21.983 --> 07:23.105 [SPEAKER_02]: Caffoeud hair. 07:23.205 --> 07:27.131 [SPEAKER_05]: So we didn't get that interview where I talked about angry and this and this and here. 07:27.151 --> 07:28.894 [SPEAKER_05]: You didn't have a lot to say when you talked about Rod Stewart. 07:28.954 --> 07:29.835 [SPEAKER_05]: We're not one of the greatest. 07:30.456 --> 07:31.778 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it made it to you. 07:31.758 --> 07:39.405 [SPEAKER_01]: The Laurel Gary & Mark Classic Conversations podcast 07:40.229 --> 07:42.853 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, it is called Laurel Gary and Mark's Classic Conversations. 07:43.314 --> 07:46.338 [SPEAKER_06]: One of the greatest stars, biggest stars in the world that we've had as he was Rod Stewart. 07:47.179 --> 07:47.500 [SPEAKER_02]: Easily. 07:48.181 --> 07:48.882 [SPEAKER_06]: And he was lovely. 07:48.922 --> 07:49.242 [SPEAKER_06]: We did it. 07:49.362 --> 07:50.824 [SPEAKER_06]: You mentioned probably about three times. 07:50.905 --> 07:54.310 [SPEAKER_05]: I think three of their various books and two was and so forth. 07:54.410 --> 08:06.928 [SPEAKER_02]: I remember the first time being very, very nervous about it because when you've got albums in your collection of rods that date back to the faces and stuff like that, all of a sudden you go, oh my goodness. 08:06.908 --> 08:09.013 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I have to jiff that group. 08:09.474 --> 08:09.775 [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, wow. 08:10.036 --> 08:10.557 [SPEAKER_05]: That is going. 08:10.597 --> 08:11.600 [SPEAKER_05]: He does vote. 08:11.940 --> 08:12.923 [SPEAKER_06]: We're not showing off here. 08:13.224 --> 08:14.266 [SPEAKER_05]: I'm showing off my oldness. 08:14.286 --> 08:16.091 [SPEAKER_06]: So the one thing I got. 08:16.271 --> 08:16.792 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a really look. 08:16.812 --> 08:17.554 [SPEAKER_06]: It's a really great interview. 08:17.614 --> 08:20.161 [SPEAKER_06]: I mentioned a moment ago that we talked about his hair and the interview. 08:20.181 --> 08:22.827 [SPEAKER_06]: But also he talks about having to give up playing soccer as well. 08:22.887 --> 08:23.850 [SPEAKER_06]: One of his true lovers. 08:23.890 --> 08:24.411 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes. 08:24.391 --> 08:27.757 [SPEAKER_06]: So we'll get to that, but let's just check in with when we did this interview. 08:28.338 --> 08:34.429 [SPEAKER_06]: It was around the same time that he released an album live, 1976 to 1998, tonight's the night now. 08:34.449 --> 08:36.212 [SPEAKER_06]: That came out March 17, 2014. 08:36.252 --> 08:45.910 [SPEAKER_06]: So it's sort of timing and I can't give the actual date and time, but I've sort of narrowed it down because you mentioned in the interview about touring USA with Santana. 08:45.930 --> 08:46.551 [SPEAKER_06]: That happened 08:46.531 --> 08:53.676 [SPEAKER_06]: in 2014 and then Rod announcing his Australian tour here in September 2014, he announced it for March and April 2015. 08:53.696 --> 08:56.807 [SPEAKER_06]: So I'm guessing around September 2014. 08:57.870 --> 08:58.633 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's take a listen. 08:59.103 --> 09:04.771 [SPEAKER_02]: Well there's not too many artists still touring that you can say make up the soundtrack of your life. 09:04.831 --> 09:07.895 [SPEAKER_02]: I actually had Broken Arrow as our wedding wall so you didn't know that handy Gary. 09:08.656 --> 09:12.160 [SPEAKER_02]: We've got him on the phone, absolutely living legend, Mr. Rock Stewart! 09:15.725 --> 09:24.537 [SPEAKER_02]: Everyone's really well-wrought and you obviously are, I saw a shirtless photograph of yourself recently. 09:26.710 --> 09:32.617 [SPEAKER_02]: No, I saw recently that you've had a few knee problems, you know, playing as much soccer. 09:32.878 --> 09:34.560 [SPEAKER_00]: Back to him about seven months ago. 09:34.580 --> 09:50.519 [SPEAKER_00]: It's, you know, I was getting in a way of my profession, which obviously is seeing, you know, I would be a cripple for three days now to swallow bottles of Adville and I just wasn't giving one hundred percent on the stage because of my knees, but so that's a pack of dinner. 09:50.820 --> 09:53.443 [SPEAKER_00]: And I missed it, you know, I missed it still. 09:53.795 --> 10:13.879 [SPEAKER_05]: was not slowing you down or I see that you're doing a tour in the states with Santana plus also the new live album 76-98 how much funded you have lock in yourself in a room and pick and tracks for that well first of all but i know nothing about this album this is uh... what happens in a career that's spanned as many years as i do they release album 10:14.163 --> 10:15.725 [SPEAKER_00]: and they forget to tell me about it. 10:16.086 --> 10:17.347 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know him about that. 10:17.848 --> 10:27.742 [SPEAKER_02]: Rod, I recently read your book and thoroughly enjoyed it, but it was really interesting to see some of the people that influenced you, one in particular, Long John Baldry. 10:28.222 --> 10:30.425 [SPEAKER_00]: If it wasn't for Long John, I wouldn't have made it. 10:30.445 --> 10:39.097 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm pretty sure he was instrumental and get me started and teaching me various tricks, stagecraft and the way to, you know, to vocalize. 10:39.638 --> 10:42.702 [SPEAKER_00]: He was a big influence in, as I say in the book, 10:42.952 --> 10:44.876 [SPEAKER_00]: There he goes by, but I don't think about him. 10:45.617 --> 10:48.743 [SPEAKER_02]: And fashion, as well, a very important part of setting up the image. 10:49.765 --> 10:54.795 [SPEAKER_00]: I was very passionate and conscious before I made it in the music business. 10:54.915 --> 11:01.888 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to say, you know, to have money to look good, you know, and you have all the money in the world still make big mistakes. 11:02.206 --> 11:04.829 [SPEAKER_02]: In particular there's a you talk about the hair. 11:04.889 --> 11:07.611 [SPEAKER_02]: There's a whole chapter in the book dedicated to your hair. 11:07.631 --> 11:10.114 [SPEAKER_02]: Rod, did you ever think in the early days? 11:10.154 --> 11:12.957 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, what if I lose my hair? 11:13.117 --> 11:16.280 [SPEAKER_02]: Alah, Elton John, would you have gone that route? 11:17.261 --> 11:17.981 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know. 11:18.102 --> 11:22.566 [SPEAKER_00]: It's, you know, I've been so fortunate and been able to keep me here. 11:22.586 --> 11:24.248 [SPEAKER_00]: It's, uh, I probably would have done. 11:24.688 --> 11:28.211 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it's out now that I've had a hair once and it all suddenly went. 11:28.231 --> 11:29.933 [SPEAKER_00]: So, I do look after it. 11:30.273 --> 11:31.875 [SPEAKER_00]: I get it cut every two weeks. 11:32.412 --> 11:35.560 [SPEAKER_00]: and it has to be six centimeters long, especially. 11:36.202 --> 11:37.245 [SPEAKER_05]: But you can always wear a hat. 11:37.265 --> 11:39.611 [SPEAKER_05]: When was the last time you wore one of those lovely boats or hats? 11:41.115 --> 11:43.561 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, don't wear a budget wear hat sometimes. 11:44.243 --> 11:48.193 [SPEAKER_00]: If I want to go out and not get noticed, the most important thing I had to cut her up is, uh, 11:48.427 --> 11:51.070 [SPEAKER_00]: The hair, that's not much I could do about me knows. 11:51.511 --> 11:55.956 [SPEAKER_02]: You're written some amazing songs, but you've also recorded some incredible songs from other writers. 11:55.976 --> 12:00.441 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, first cut is the deepest, my favorite version of that is your version. 12:01.402 --> 12:05.227 [SPEAKER_02]: How in the world do you know a great rod song, whether you've written it or not? 12:05.767 --> 12:10.293 [SPEAKER_00]: It's the lyrics that first interest me before the melody or anything. 12:10.373 --> 12:11.755 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm very hot on lyrics. 12:12.535 --> 12:18.062 [SPEAKER_00]: And you just said yourself, it's, I suppose it's like going out and buying a dress or a suit. 12:18.413 --> 12:23.825 [SPEAKER_00]: and if the song fits you then you buy and if the song fits me I think it and I'm happy with it. 12:24.246 --> 12:29.638 [SPEAKER_00]: There are songs that you know I don't feel I can deliver of the well so I just feel well clear of those. 12:30.091 --> 12:49.056 [SPEAKER_05]: you are doing the hits to a very happy to see that the last time I saw you do that I thought one of the problems is how do you stop people from singing along because I was at the show and there was about an eight-foot bike-y behind me singing along to every song and a colleague that I was with actually turned around to the eight-foot-tool bike and said, maybe I've paid to hear Rod Stewart not you. 12:49.537 --> 12:51.520 [SPEAKER_00]: He shot up. 12:52.681 --> 12:57.668 [SPEAKER_00]: You know it's sections of the when we do a show that I really enjoy the audience singing. 12:58.070 --> 13:00.353 [SPEAKER_00]: You know the same stage singing is very good for you. 13:00.373 --> 13:01.455 [SPEAKER_00]: It's very good for the soul. 13:01.915 --> 13:02.897 [SPEAKER_00]: Very good for the heart. 13:02.977 --> 13:04.639 [SPEAKER_00]: It's really good to get out there and sing. 13:04.659 --> 13:06.061 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's why people enjoy it. 13:06.622 --> 13:09.085 [SPEAKER_00]: Who was Eto despite it a shot? 13:09.106 --> 13:10.447 [SPEAKER_00]: It was a very brave movement. 13:10.487 --> 13:11.409 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to tell you, you beat. 13:13.031 --> 13:16.175 [SPEAKER_00]: Now, I do enjoy the singing. 13:16.215 --> 13:16.656 [SPEAKER_00]: I really do. 13:16.916 --> 13:19.380 [SPEAKER_02]: Rod Stewart, thank you so much for your generous time this morning. 13:19.420 --> 13:20.101 [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much, guys. 13:20.141 --> 13:20.722 [SPEAKER_00]: Take care. 13:20.742 --> 13:21.162 [SPEAKER_00]: See you soon. 13:22.004 --> 13:27.992 [SPEAKER_06]: So that was our interview with Rod Stewart. 13:28.782 --> 13:29.343 [SPEAKER_02]: too late. 13:30.405 --> 13:34.213 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, this late stage 2014 that was when we recorded Rod. 13:34.313 --> 13:37.860 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and of course more recently it's still performing around the world. 13:38.361 --> 13:42.128 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think the stage gets any bigger if you're a Brit than Glastonbury. 13:42.189 --> 13:43.050 [SPEAKER_05]: It's the ultimate, yeah. 13:43.251 --> 13:46.437 [SPEAKER_02]: It is the ultimate Rod Stewart performed there. 13:46.417 --> 14:07.193 [SPEAKER_02]: It was so great that you know pretty much it's a predominantly younger audience very fashionably dressed glass numbery and you know he had them whipped into a frenzy and to do that at 80 years of age is quite amazing but when he came off and he had special guests Ronny Wood and Lulu who still looks 25 and Ronny of course played with him in the front 14:07.173 --> 14:07.994 [SPEAKER_02]: and the faces. 14:08.714 --> 14:10.256 [SPEAKER_02]: They did guess performances with him. 14:10.316 --> 14:17.443 [SPEAKER_02]: But I loved how when he came off, there was a lady chatting to him and he said, look, it's just such an emotional event. 14:17.603 --> 14:18.624 [SPEAKER_02]: He shared it to you. 14:19.004 --> 14:25.470 [SPEAKER_02]: He said, especially if you're British, this is our woodstock and there's nothing bigger in the world and we do it best. 14:26.551 --> 14:27.592 [SPEAKER_02]: So you had a really great time. 14:27.853 --> 14:33.518 [SPEAKER_02]: And I know the last time I saw a lot, I think I've seen him about three or four times, but the last time was at a day on the green. 14:33.498 --> 14:37.502 [SPEAKER_02]: He would have been about 77 then, and he just ripped up the stage. 14:37.882 --> 14:45.889 [SPEAKER_02]: His voice was fantastic, and doing a muddy water song, doing songs from the phase I wish that I knew what I know now. 14:46.009 --> 14:48.972 [SPEAKER_05]: Which he did not sing the original vocals on. 14:49.032 --> 14:50.193 [SPEAKER_05]: He didn't want to do it. 14:50.613 --> 14:54.056 [SPEAKER_05]: I was running, want to sing the original vocals on that. 14:54.076 --> 14:55.157 [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, because Rod didn't want to. 14:55.197 --> 14:58.520 [SPEAKER_02]: And yet he sang it live, but yeah, he's so fantastic. 14:58.540 --> 14:59.941 [SPEAKER_02]: I'd love to see him back in Australia. 14:59.961 --> 15:00.802 [SPEAKER_05]: It doesn't look his age. 15:00.862 --> 15:03.184 [SPEAKER_05]: He's just new single, do you think I'm 60? 15:04.177 --> 15:08.135 [SPEAKER_05]: It's not, it'd be happy with that, I'm sure. 15:08.155 --> 15:12.314 [SPEAKER_02]: What was the gag that Ron Stewart had to cancel his Australian tour? 15:12.334 --> 15:13.680 [SPEAKER_02]: Because his voice cleared up. 15:14.470 --> 15:36.254 [SPEAKER_06]: No, look, he's a real professional and just listening back to that interview just then the stuff about giving up soccer because he couldn't give 100% to his concerts and that is a really, you could learn a lot from a guy like Rod Stewart that his main focus is performing and getting that shown, giving the audience exactly the best that he can and soccer was interfering that so he gave up with one of the great things in his life. 15:36.294 --> 15:41.760 [SPEAKER_05]: And I love the fact that the Scottish National team would just turn up because Rod had his own pitch and they just turn up. 15:41.740 --> 15:42.461 [SPEAKER_05]: There's Rod. 15:42.481 --> 15:43.182 [SPEAKER_05]: Hey, down, fellas. 15:43.602 --> 15:45.184 [SPEAKER_06]: I bet he'd be happy about that, wouldn't he? 15:45.224 --> 15:45.925 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, I think he will. 15:45.945 --> 15:46.806 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, man, that's so good. 15:47.367 --> 15:49.129 [SPEAKER_06]: Alright, we are doing classic conversations. 15:49.169 --> 15:50.491 [SPEAKER_06]: We've done part one of the show. 15:50.551 --> 15:53.014 [SPEAKER_06]: Coming up in just a moment, we're going to go to a break first of all. 15:53.254 --> 15:59.522 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, our show was pretty packed and we didn't think we'd get the second guest in, but we discovered some wiggle room. 15:59.542 --> 16:00.783 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's that. 16:00.803 --> 16:02.025 [SPEAKER_06]: Who better love that? 16:02.085 --> 16:05.689 [SPEAKER_06]: We might just leave it at that and we'll find out who that guest is in just a moment. 16:05.669 --> 16:14.041 [SPEAKER_01]: The Laurel Gary and Mark Classic Conversations podcast powered by SAE University College lead us in creative media and technology. 16:15.444 --> 16:19.710 [SPEAKER_06]: It is our classic conversations we've already heard from Rod Stewart, what a great interview that was. 16:20.030 --> 16:24.818 [SPEAKER_06]: Going to move now to the Wiggles, one of Australia's biggest exports, I suppose. 16:24.838 --> 16:27.482 [SPEAKER_06]: It's not Australia's biggest export. 16:27.882 --> 16:31.187 [SPEAKER_05]: And for such a long time, too, I mean continuously successful. 16:31.471 --> 16:53.091 [SPEAKER_06]: they are really great and they were doing obviously all the kids shows and things and the reason that they that we chatted to Anthony Field from the Wiggles is he's talking about the Wiggles OG Tour which is their original tour and must have been a bizarre thing to stand up there on stage and look out to a sea of people who were like in their 30s or so or 20s and go 16:53.915 --> 16:54.836 [SPEAKER_06]: I'd have a new grown-up. 16:54.916 --> 16:56.198 [SPEAKER_05]: See, you're a little kid. 16:56.218 --> 16:58.080 [SPEAKER_05]: Of course, the weekals do their adult show as well. 16:58.120 --> 16:59.222 [SPEAKER_05]: I think they call it Giegels. 16:59.442 --> 17:02.306 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, I sold out. 17:02.346 --> 17:03.868 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm trying to get it. 17:03.888 --> 17:06.311 [SPEAKER_06]: By the way, look out for that joke in the interview again. 17:06.491 --> 17:08.454 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, he's a good kid. 17:08.474 --> 17:09.074 [SPEAKER_02]: See, he doesn't pay. 17:09.094 --> 17:09.455 [SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't pay. 17:09.495 --> 17:10.416 [SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't pay. 17:10.476 --> 17:10.817 [SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't pay. 17:10.837 --> 17:11.798 [SPEAKER_06]: Do I tell him better? 17:11.818 --> 17:13.840 [SPEAKER_06]: I think you do, and you get a really good laugh from Anthony. 17:14.281 --> 17:15.122 [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, okay. 17:15.943 --> 17:17.785 [SPEAKER_05]: I'm really should listen to these things. 17:17.906 --> 17:18.847 [SPEAKER_06]: It was a headache, I just said it there. 17:18.867 --> 17:21.390 [SPEAKER_06]: We go to OG to at the end of time and said, 17:21.370 --> 17:23.197 [SPEAKER_04]: Good on me for having a memory. 17:23.478 --> 17:24.843 [SPEAKER_04]: Good on you for only having one joke. 17:27.452 --> 17:30.604 [SPEAKER_06]: The 3rd of April in 2022, let's take a listen. 17:30.888 --> 17:34.374 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, in our scrapbook, we've got many photos. 17:34.414 --> 17:39.622 [SPEAKER_02]: I've got photos of myself with one of the most famous bands in the world. 17:39.762 --> 17:47.935 [SPEAKER_02]: And I've even got this famous band holding in a, I think it's about a nine-month-old clay who's now 24 years of age. 17:48.496 --> 17:53.825 [SPEAKER_02]: I am talking about the one and only Wiggles and we've got Blue Wiggle Anthony. 17:53.845 --> 17:53.925 [UNKNOWN]: Yay! 17:53.905 --> 17:55.307 [SPEAKER_03]: Good memories from me too. 17:55.347 --> 18:00.034 [SPEAKER_03]: I tell you what, the cast of the day that you said, well, I've been here with just bed pasty. 18:00.055 --> 18:01.998 [SPEAKER_02]: I must say, thank you so much. 18:02.038 --> 18:08.628 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm not saying thank you, Troy is because all I've put up with now is a whole lot of banjo in the house. 18:08.648 --> 18:11.873 [SPEAKER_02]: You gave him one of your beautiful prized banjo's. 18:12.293 --> 18:17.742 [SPEAKER_03]: I played a tenor banjo, and I had a six-string deering banjo, and I never played it. 18:18.002 --> 18:21.027 [SPEAKER_03]: Out of the blue he just said, do you know anyone who's got a six-string banjo? 18:21.361 --> 18:25.134 [SPEAKER_03]: I set it up to him at every time I hear him play, I say, it's at a better home. 18:25.254 --> 18:26.518 [SPEAKER_03]: It's found a better player. 18:26.860 --> 18:32.940 [SPEAKER_05]: And it's quite fitting that you actually gave him the banjo, because every time he plays it, it starts a blue with laurel. 18:37.223 --> 18:40.188 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, look Anthony continued success. 18:40.228 --> 18:41.430 [SPEAKER_02]: Congratulations. 18:41.530 --> 18:42.712 [SPEAKER_02]: This has been incredible. 18:42.732 --> 18:45.697 [SPEAKER_03]: We had our first ever number one hour. 18:45.777 --> 18:47.740 [SPEAKER_03]: You're album with the rewigled album. 18:47.760 --> 18:58.236 [SPEAKER_03]: We've been going round to each show to the children at daytime and at night times the original Wiggles get together for what I can only describe as the crazy as turning up the Nutrikin cordial. 18:58.978 --> 18:59.839 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm in a great 19:01.203 --> 19:03.512 [SPEAKER_05]: So in the adult shows, what do you wiggle? 19:03.793 --> 19:12.107 [SPEAKER_03]: We kind of wobble, we're a little bit older these days, but the audience said that the children that grew up now are adults, they come to the show, they want to re-gleave their childhood. 19:12.425 --> 19:13.426 [SPEAKER_03]: It is so beautiful. 19:13.446 --> 19:15.829 [SPEAKER_03]: We do the same show we did those years ago. 19:15.849 --> 19:22.517 [SPEAKER_06]: When you first started the Wiggles and you put on those colors of those shirts, did you realize that they were going to be so synonymous? 19:22.577 --> 19:24.640 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like kiss with the makeup on. 19:24.900 --> 19:33.130 [SPEAKER_06]: They can kind of swap members a little bit easier because of the makeup and did you realize when you were starting out the Wiggles that that was going to be such an important part? 19:33.371 --> 19:39.478 [SPEAKER_03]: We're straight out of university of teachers and it was just a way for the children to identify 19:39.796 --> 19:41.458 [SPEAKER_03]: You're a wiggle and to the children. 19:41.518 --> 19:51.367 [SPEAKER_03]: It's not so much a matter to the children that it's empty, or so high, or Murray, or Lucky, or it really doesn't matter for the young two-year-olds. 19:51.427 --> 19:52.368 [SPEAKER_03]: They just see the color. 19:53.049 --> 19:54.991 [SPEAKER_05]: Did you get to choose your own color? 19:55.031 --> 19:57.974 [SPEAKER_05]: When you're all starting up the band, were you able to do that? 19:58.194 --> 20:01.157 [SPEAKER_03]: Greg and I had a race to the bend. 20:01.297 --> 20:02.198 [SPEAKER_03]: It was a skivvy bend. 20:02.578 --> 20:04.240 [SPEAKER_03]: So we got to ask you, ZFIC. 20:04.981 --> 20:06.502 [SPEAKER_03]: It's a great loss. 20:06.542 --> 20:09.465 [SPEAKER_03]: You got yellow. 20:09.445 --> 20:23.642 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, speaking of the yellow scivey, I must admit when I saw young, so high for the first time, I thought, oh my goodness, she is so young, but I saw her the other day in an interview and what an articulate and bright young girl. 20:23.682 --> 20:31.492 [SPEAKER_03]: She's from Ethiopia and she has the most beautiful family she has adopted at six months. 20:31.512 --> 20:33.354 [SPEAKER_03]: Her brother, Candle, is from Columbia. 20:33.815 --> 20:38.220 [SPEAKER_03]: Robin, her 20:38.420 --> 20:41.785 [SPEAKER_05]: I was just wondering if the adult shows are the female wiggles known as jiggles? 20:43.467 --> 20:44.809 [SPEAKER_05]: Gary? 20:44.829 --> 20:45.230 [SPEAKER_05]: Gary? 20:45.250 --> 20:45.450 [SPEAKER_03]: Gary? 20:45.470 --> 20:45.771 [SPEAKER_03]: Gary? 20:45.791 --> 20:46.472 [SPEAKER_03]: I would have said it. 20:46.492 --> 20:47.794 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't go there for Gary. 20:47.894 --> 20:49.256 [SPEAKER_03]: Gary? 20:49.276 --> 20:49.757 [SPEAKER_03]: Gary? 20:51.359 --> 20:52.420 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, captain doesn't saw that. 20:52.440 --> 20:53.342 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 20:53.362 --> 20:56.226 [SPEAKER_03]: He says off when we're not on camera, I got daddy. 20:57.247 --> 20:57.368 [SPEAKER_02]: Daddy. 20:57.388 --> 20:57.568 [SPEAKER_02]: Daddy. 20:57.828 --> 21:01.774 [SPEAKER_02]: Are you getting a different reaction from the audiences with these adult shows? 21:01.834 --> 21:03.276 [SPEAKER_02]: Because a lot of adults have grew up with the wiggles. 21:03.457 --> 21:07.903 [SPEAKER_03]: That was a really nice part of their life, thankfully. 21:08.035 --> 21:13.488 [SPEAKER_03]: Dorothy had that they had when they were five or the Dorothy tail of a T-shirt that doesn't fit to many more. 21:13.508 --> 21:15.754 [SPEAKER_03]: And we played for it. 21:16.195 --> 21:21.608 [SPEAKER_03]: There was an AFL game on across the road and they all came from the guys. 21:22.450 --> 21:24.475 [SPEAKER_03]: So they were, you know, ready to go. 21:24.657 --> 21:27.601 [SPEAKER_03]: you know what I mean and it was quite incredible. 21:27.681 --> 21:44.341 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay well we can get to see you guys having fun and of course you always involve the crowd and the good thing is when the crowd come along to the Wiggles OG concerts that after bring the then you know the wipes and the napis and the the bottles and all of that stuff. 21:44.361 --> 21:50.428 [SPEAKER_03]: Make for yourself. 21:50.408 --> 21:58.118 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think there'd be as much cordial inventory, but it's not, but it's not, it's not, it's just a lot of time. 21:58.138 --> 22:00.842 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, how are you going, by the way, you've looked at COVID? 22:01.122 --> 22:20.128 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, getting to the end of it, I have a feeling it came from a super spreader event called the Borem Bay Blues Fest, of which I

do these days. 23:14.528 --> 23:17.611 [SPEAKER_06]: We're playing the audio of these interviews just pretty much straight up. 23:17.631 --> 23:22.735 [SPEAKER_06]: We're not editing our dates or anything like that because it's nice for people to think, oh, that's where I was on that date. 23:23.056 --> 23:27.239 [SPEAKER_06]: So when we say things like playing this weekend, please don't rest there. 23:27.259 --> 23:28.741 [SPEAKER_02]: But they are still playing of course. 23:28.821 --> 23:33.405 [SPEAKER_02]: And more recently, the voice had famous people in the audience. 23:33.425 --> 23:34.666 [SPEAKER_02]: The goal on and see the wiggles. 23:35.246 --> 23:42.192 [SPEAKER_02]: And during New York, 23:42.172 --> 23:43.374 [SPEAKER_02]: with his two-year-old. 23:45.458 --> 23:45.919 [SPEAKER_06]: Grandn't. 23:46.359 --> 23:47.021 [SPEAKER_02]: No, shawl. 23:47.241 --> 23:50.848 [SPEAKER_06]: Go, go, go, go. 23:50.968 --> 23:52.390 [SPEAKER_07]: Two-year-old, that's too caprient. 23:52.410 --> 23:54.214 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, that's right, yeah, come on. 23:54.234 --> 23:59.363 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so Robert Genera has seven children, and 81 years of age has a two-year-old. 23:59.383 --> 24:00.064 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that's nice. 24:00.084 --> 24:00.865 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's life. 24:01.106 --> 24:01.967 [SPEAKER_05]: Why was he doing it? 24:01.987 --> 24:04.572 [SPEAKER_05]: It was a bit of pudding for the wiggles, because he kept looking up the stage on. 24:04.953 --> 24:06.255 [SPEAKER_05]: You're looking at me. 24:06.235 --> 24:07.617 [SPEAKER_05]: Are you looking at me? 24:08.137 --> 24:09.619 [SPEAKER_05]: No one paraphrasing fans. 24:09.919 --> 24:17.848 [SPEAKER_02]: It was so exciting for both parties actually because the Wiggles got to meet Robert Danero and the little daughter and his wife at backstage. 24:17.948 --> 24:23.535 [SPEAKER_02]: So they had photos taken together and the little daughter she wouldn't give up on the little bubble blind machine. 24:23.575 --> 24:25.137 [SPEAKER_02]: She just kept that going the whole time. 24:25.457 --> 24:26.158 [SPEAKER_06]: Kids are funny like that. 24:26.358 --> 24:29.762 [SPEAKER_06]: Even though the cameras are rolling and taking photos, the kids are they're fixated on something. 24:29.742 --> 24:30.063 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 24:30.083 --> 24:35.612 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like that beautiful story of when it was, uh, this is your life and jammer and shove something up in the nose. 24:36.153 --> 24:36.333 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay. 24:36.353 --> 24:36.674 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 24:36.934 --> 24:38.237 [SPEAKER_02]: Um, I think she was about. 24:38.297 --> 24:38.998 [SPEAKER_02]: Is it a peanut? 24:39.018 --> 24:43.145 [SPEAKER_02]: It was about your e at the time and, um, clay was about six. 24:43.185 --> 24:46.651 [SPEAKER_02]: And she was just going through the stage of shoving everything up the nose. 24:46.691 --> 24:48.334 [SPEAKER_02]: Anything that would fit, of course. 24:48.394 --> 24:50.097 [SPEAKER_05]: And now she's a musician and, oh, oh. 24:50.077 --> 25:05.807 [SPEAKER_02]: we went off to the doctor's many a time to hospital to emergency to try and get a bead out of a nostril get a piece of Lego out of the nostril I must admit when the bead was stuck up there and I'm trying to get it out with two pieces. 25:05.787 --> 25:09.732 [SPEAKER_02]: And I'm thinking, I can't afford to have this go back into her sinuses or whatever. 25:10.293 --> 25:13.877 [SPEAKER_02]: So up to emergency, sat there in emergency for two hours. 25:13.997 --> 25:16.941 [SPEAKER_02]: I'd say, is it still there, she go, yes, mummy, still there, still there. 25:17.462 --> 25:30.819 [SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, the young attendant, like it wasn't even a doctor, because they know exactly what to do in this case, sat her up on the bed, covered one side of the nostril, and said, blow, which you are being in a shot out like a bullet. 25:30.839 --> 25:31.980 [SPEAKER_02]: And I thought, 25:31.960 --> 25:34.326 [SPEAKER_02]: Why did I think of that? 25:34.366 --> 25:35.027 [SPEAKER_06]: That's so funny. 25:36.050 --> 25:38.215 [SPEAKER_06]: That she's been most of the whole show, hadn't she? 25:38.235 --> 25:38.856 [SPEAKER_06]: What was it? 25:38.976 --> 25:39.838 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, this is your life. 25:39.858 --> 25:40.981 [SPEAKER_02]: That's right, backstage. 25:41.001 --> 25:42.424 [SPEAKER_02]: Because of course, it's all surprised. 25:42.885 --> 25:49.581 [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm standing backstage and she's getting stuck into the grapes and everything in the green room. 25:49.561 --> 25:55.467 [SPEAKER_02]: She waits until I'm standing there, clay in one hand, gem in the other. 25:55.987 --> 26:00.011 [SPEAKER_02]: They're just about to open the doors to race out to Daddy, who's on the set. 26:00.591 --> 26:06.617 [SPEAKER_02]: And she goes, see, that my nose, mommy, and what, why now? 26:06.637 --> 26:10.861 [SPEAKER_07]: Did you block the other side, nostril, and yet, just as the doors open? 26:11.602 --> 26:12.503 [SPEAKER_07]: That was good. 26:12.523 --> 26:13.103 [SPEAKER_07]: And I know that. 26:13.123 --> 26:17.307 [SPEAKER_05]: That was the end of Mike Monroe's TV career, because she took an eye out with her. 26:17.472 --> 26:23.700 [SPEAKER_05]: Now, they actually, because I was doing warmer on that show, and they record them live. 26:23.900 --> 26:28.045 [SPEAKER_05]: So they don't stop for anything, that little gem has to be released. 26:28.305 --> 26:31.349 [SPEAKER_05]: She got Mike Monroe to close that book and stop. 26:31.870 --> 26:39.259 [SPEAKER_02]: And she takes after a month for sure, because we sat down and the whole time, because Gem not understanding it three years of age, what the whole thing was about. 26:39.539 --> 26:46.568 [SPEAKER_02]: She's looking down at the monitoring, and she's looking at my hand, she's going, 26:46.548 --> 26:53.819 [SPEAKER_02]: Hello, nanny, no, it's nanny, no, I was in the audience and the whole time in Mike goes, did she ever shut up? 26:53.839 --> 26:55.100 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm actually takes up for a mom. 26:55.140 --> 26:56.062 [SPEAKER_02]: Did that take a cut or not? 26:56.382 --> 26:59.086 [SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, they really wish you good luck. 26:59.126 --> 27:01.370 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, man, kids, we've all grown up. 27:01.390 --> 27:03.553 [SPEAKER_06]: Poor James, we're probably embarrassing her right now. 27:03.693 --> 27:10.943 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, speaking of kids, this is something, well, actually we're talking Anthony Field before from the Wiggles. 27:11.424 --> 27:14.108 [SPEAKER_05]: Anthony and I, we have something in common. 27:14.290 --> 27:16.556 [SPEAKER_06]: He's successful with loads of money. 27:16.636 --> 27:29.026 [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, and that's not all that children actually don't run away from him we I have a card We've both performed with tourcassad only. 27:29.367 --> 27:30.430 [SPEAKER_06]: Whoa. 27:30.991 --> 27:31.793 [SPEAKER_06]: What did you do? 27:31.925 --> 27:37.391 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I know the wiggles have performed with Troy, and he's on albums and live as the brown wiggles. 27:37.411 --> 27:38.513 [SPEAKER_05]: But come to the wiggles. 27:38.533 --> 27:42.217 [SPEAKER_05]: Before those days, I took a young puppy and kiddo. 27:42.317 --> 27:44.920 [SPEAKER_05]: I thought it a bit of a bit of a hope Troy. 27:44.960 --> 27:46.042 [SPEAKER_05]: Troy, okay. 27:46.062 --> 27:47.664 [SPEAKER_06]: So you're trying to claim all of his... 27:47.684 --> 27:48.645 [SPEAKER_05]: I gave him a chance. 27:49.826 --> 27:52.429 [SPEAKER_06]: Do you see Laurel here that there's a familiar thing? 27:52.449 --> 27:53.190 [SPEAKER_06]: He's trying to claim. 27:53.356 --> 27:58.105 [SPEAKER_06]: Anthony Fielden him and now he's trying to claim, you know, Troy trying to claim what he's written. 27:58.245 --> 28:10.369 [SPEAKER_05]: I always leave you out of the conversation, but we did, well, actually, know you're in the conversation because Troy helped me out as we did a little song for your son Felix. 28:10.349 --> 28:35.361 [SPEAKER_06]: now this was he he was born he just been born yeah he just been born and and I came into work and you prepared this beautiful so my wife loves this song by the way and place it every birthday that he has she really really loves it well

[SPEAKER_06]: He's actually just turned 18. 28:37.184 --> 28:39.487 [SPEAKER_06]: So that's a real change in our family because he's gone. 28:39.647 --> 28:43.813 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm off to the pub and it's like, well, what? 28:43.833 --> 28:53.907 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, then we only knew Felix the cat and Gary decided he was going to pin a special little song for Felix and also with Troy Casadale on Gettin. 29:00.653 --> 29:03.336 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, my daddy goes to work about 10 to 3. 29:03.677 --> 29:05.740 [SPEAKER_05]: Don't ask much of him to marame. 29:06.000 --> 29:09.264 [SPEAKER_05]: Just don't slam the door and think about the name you picks. 29:10.846 --> 29:15.893 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, he must have had a big night on the booze because of all the names he had to choose. 29:16.433 --> 29:19.237 [SPEAKER_05]: Before he left, he went and named me Felix. 29:21.019 --> 29:29.530 [SPEAKER_05]: Friends, try to tell him I'd need therapy for that being named after some magic bag carrying cat and a school you know I'd get my share kicks. 29:30.893 --> 29:33.676 [SPEAKER_05]: It's like that neat guy from the odd couple, the one they call younger. 29:33.936 --> 29:36.338 [SPEAKER_05]: If only you went with his second choice, Calabonger. 29:36.358 --> 29:39.722 [SPEAKER_05]: I tell ya, I've been easy for a boy named Felix. 29:41.363 --> 29:51.493 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, a thorn a month's of five till the day I turned five when this hippie kickle buttercup roaps me alive and then all those bullies got into their rhyme and tricks. 29:51.513 --> 29:54.396 [SPEAKER_05]: You see this cow, licks and bootlicks, and I'll be another. 29:54.416 --> 29:56.578 [SPEAKER_05]: I just won't tell ya, well not in front of a mother. 29:57.098 --> 30:00.782 [SPEAKER_05]: I've been easy for a boy named Felix. 30:06.331 --> 30:32.980 [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I'm a grown man, now I made it all in my own I still visit daddy and the old people's home And I got overwhelmed in the crush
