John Ziana.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Man, yeah yeah, yeah, what's on the cutting room floor?
First day?

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Back, friend, Well, let's talk about food.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
I follow a guy on social media and it's called
Cooking with Congress, And what he does is he samples
the day in a life food wise of people throughout
various parts of American government. It might be someone who
works as a fireman in Oregon, for example, or a
civil servant if they've got any of them remaining in

(00:41):
America from Nebraska. But I looked at with interest to
first ladies, he ate like Jackie NASAs for a day
and like Nancy Reagan for a day. They're both very
thin women. Do you want to hear what Jackie Nass
had a day in the life of her food? This
is probably when she wasn't at state dinner, et cetera.
It was very plain. Sheare her breakfast toast with honey

(01:05):
and just coffee with warm milk and an orange juice.
Lunch was a broth and a very thin sandwich of
light grilled cheese.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
What hear? Would this have been probably the seventies? Yeah,
a snack.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
This is stuff that people snack on today cottage cheese
and blueberries. Remember cottage cheese and grapefruit were all rage.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Cottage cheese. You don't see people eat that anymore, Yes
you do.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
It's all come back.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
It's the new thing, is you know how, I don't
know how we can actually walk around without constantly asking
for protein. According to social media, all day, all we're
supposed to do is consume protein. I don't know how
we sleep at night. Just eat protein.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
So cottage cheese, I know it's come back to my thighs.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
Whether it's whether it's being blended or baked or whatever,
cottage cheese has made a huge resurgence thanks to that
protein that we're all to have. So here's Jackie Arnasa's's dinner.
Cold poached salmon, blanched string beans, roasted potatoes, not a hint.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Of a sauce.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
She was very thin.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Her husband was getting all the salce.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
It was cashing in on that.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
And dessert says here half a cup of peach ice cream.
But I've had to look at the picture of the
guy and what he was doing. It's half a cup
of ice cream with some tinned peaches.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
You and I have.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Both spoken of this this was the dessert of our upbringing,
was two fruits and ice cm.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Yeah, what a great dessert. Put that on mastership.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
Forget your bloody snow globe, get us some two fruits
and ice cream.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah. Did you used to have it with the syrup
over the ice cream from the fruits? I don't know
what you gorge your parents?

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yes, oh yeah, yeah, Mama put it. But you didn't
want too much fruit in there. You didn't want to.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Syrup, not too much.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
We either had two fruits and ice cream or we
had ice cream in a cone, and sometimes it was
the cone that had the flat bottom.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah. They were great.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
They were great days, weren't They.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Used to like getting on the cones.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Do you want to hear what Nancy Reagan had in
a day? She's another thin woman. Here's what she had
her breakfast. This is would have been the eighties.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yep, a low fat health shake and a glass of
orange juice.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
During the day, she would maybe snack on decaf almond
tea lunch a salad of ridicio watercress, grapefruit.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Almonds and lemon vinegrette.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
Dinner was a broiled trout with kiwi and broccoli, and
her late night snack. This is where she went crazy.
Eighteen tubs of ice cream. No, a banana.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Oh, she just said a banana. Before she jumps into
bed with Ronald.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
She was dreaming that he was Ronald McDonald. She'd have
been starving after a day like that.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
What's your day? On a plate in the morning, Well.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
I'm in here my data plate. I may have you.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Bring a parnet of superfoods in blueberries, I have blueberries.
If you pick out all the moldy ones, yeah, about
three blueberryes.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
They last about ten seconds in the fridge. If you're
getting a moulberry or BlackBerry. BlackBerry that's what they called,
aren't they It's BlackBerry? What was the palm pilot?

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Everyone used a BlackBerry?

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Drug dealers.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Don't make a mistake of chomping on mat. I'll probably
have some little fruity bits like that. Yep, I might
have some instant porridge. We have to have things that
we can prepare during a very short news break, So
I'm not going to put on an awesome BOOKO.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
For example, it.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Made me hungry you mentioned I book after the show?

Speaker 4 (04:37):
I usually make a tuna melt. So I eat some
oats in the morning. I like my oats in the morning.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
I make a heart melt. I make many hearts melt.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Of course you do. And then I do shut up.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
I get some lebonese bread, and I get some grated
cheese and some serena tuna and a bit of.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
That for fat. Yeah with oil. Yeah, don't waste my
time with that watery slot.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
And I get the Frank's hots because you have franks
no hot sauce, red sauce.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
And do you put that under the gorilla?

Speaker 4 (05:05):
I just put in the toastmaking machine. Yeah, your chafful machine.
Oh okay, and that it makes too little.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
It's very nice, yeah, very nice.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
When I go home for lunch, I'll sometimes have tuna
and a salad or a bit of leftovers from the
night before, yep. And then what do you eat in
the afternoon.

Speaker 4 (05:24):
I try not to eat in the afternoon. I'll have
a piece of fruit.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Perhaps it's a very light diet you have, unless you
go crazy and have MC nuggets all night.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
No, And dinner is when I guts out a bit.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
What do you have? What are you doing?

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Steak and chips and salad or saladas or something like that.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
During the holidays, you just eat crap.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
All the time. I drink. I drink my calories most
of the time my holidays. Not a big drinker.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
But I have a glass of wine at night in
my holidays, which I don't drink during the week at home.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
Yeah, because you're not. I'm worried about when I drink
that it's bad for my liver. You're worried about it's
bad for your weight.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yes, that's right. I don't careless about my liver.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Right.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Well, remember when I first started working with you, on
a weekend, you would have like fifteen beers a day.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
You don't do that anymore, do you.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Youah, not fifteen so much.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Or unless you've been fibb.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
I've been drinking a lot of the mid strength beers
as you get older. I've been drinking the blackfish because
it takes you longer to become a dickhead, and also
you don't have the hangover the next day.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
I have no time for a hand.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
I have the same calories as a full beer.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Actually, that's a good question. I'm not too sure about that.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
On Friday, that's you know, that's that's your goosey, you go, yeah,
you go full blown on the Friday, and then you
sort of tape it down from that.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah, that's what I tried to do.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
And Monday is the easiest in the world not to
have a drink.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah, by Thursday I go or whatever.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, Thursday, you're like, I'll have a reed out on
the town.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
But yeah, And because they say that you're not supposed
because when you go to the doctor, they say you're
not supposed to drink that much.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
You know, they'll say how many drinks.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
Do you if you're honest? Are you ever honest with that?

Speaker 4 (07:02):
Now?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I always lie a bit.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
They must know, we know they must add twelve drinks
to every conversation we ever had.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
But I've got mates would drink fifteen beers a day,
every day. If I drank fifteen beers, I would do
that on a big, a big night, and I would
have a hangover. I probably I'm good for four. I
like having four, the feeling of four beers. Can't drive
a car, well, I do have some mates who say
five and drive even nineteen seventy two.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
But I'll have four, and I feel good if I
could take if I could stop at four.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
This is what someone said to me, and this is
very true.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
She said she drives to parties and things because she
says she can have two drinks and said, you're never
going to feel better than you do it two drinks.
That at two drinks, the rest of the time you're
playing catch up to feel like you did when you
had two, and then you overdo it. You're chasing the dragon,
chasing the dragon around. She'll get you another drink. Yeah,
And that's why she drives so that she stops at two.
And that's the best buzz of all.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Who is this friend?

Speaker 1 (07:57):
It's not me?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Obviously, want a desert driver because that would be great.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
