Speaker 1 (00:02):
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Out of that Disney fat rolls, Zach, And have you
ever like this, like ste this happened when second kids.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
This is Zac and dom.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Oh, it is so wonderful to be here with you
on this wonderful Thursday night. Are you noticing the lights
just starting to fade a little bit earlier in the day.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah, you can see it minute and actually it feels
like it accelerates a little bit. It's like, yep, stays
the same time, stays the same time.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yep. I feel that February is when it just starts dipping.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
And I don't know the science behind that, whether that's
true or just something I've observed.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Well, I reckon. When you're in January, you still feel
like New Year's was so close. This Christmas was just
the other day. But once you hit February, you're on
your march towards the dark.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I know what I'm hearing around a little bit.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
What are you hearing some coughing? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Yeah, And I was like, no, no, no, no no,
because last year is Easter for us in my family. Yeah,
we were all good until Easter and then we had
a run of like three months of sickness, and so
I'm like, no, please.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
It was a nightmare for you guys last year, wasn't it.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, I'm hoping not a repeat this year. Yeah, got
two young kids, it's pretty hard to avoid.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Now We'll look all the best to you and everyone
else out there. As we do approach the darkness, the
darkness returns. That's a fun way to start an FM
radio show, isn't it. Yeah, the darkness is coming everyone.
But hey, look there's good news anyway, because on the
show tonight we are bringing back, for the first time
in twenty twenty five, the much loved Snack Report.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
This is where Dom gives us an update on what's
happening in the snack world, similar to the Stock Report,
It's like com sick yep for snacks. What's on the
way up, what's on the way down? What you should
be buying? What should you be getting rid of? Now?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Sel sell over Thestmas break I took. You know, some
people might go to Wall Street and ring the bell,
you know, and the.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Stock I had to open up the market for the day,
opens the.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Stock market for the day. Well, I did the equivalent
of that in the confectionery world.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
What's ringing the confectionery bell.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
But basically it's just going from a confectionery store to
store across the world and ringing up the register. All right,
I thought you.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Might kind of rattle lock into surprise or something.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
That would work. That would work. But all I can say,
and I'll tease this to you now, groundbreaking skittles news,
big skittles news coming up.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Mate.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
If you're a Skittles lover, if at some point in
your life you have been a Skittles lover, you're gonna
want to hang around to hear this bombshell Skittles reporter.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
It's a skittle scandal made. It's certainly getting close to that.
It's and you know what can I add to that
global skittle scandal. We'll get to that in a moment.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
This is second Tom Zach. Anytime there's news out of
McDonald's land, this show needs to cover it. We're big
lovers of McDonald's land, aren't we.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
McDonald's Land is, far as I'm aware, is the fictitious
land where all the McDonald's characters live. And now it's
not just Ronald bar Bertie and Grimers. There's also a
whole lot of other characters that have kind of faded
to the background in McDonald's kind of marketing at the moment.
But when we were.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Kids, Mayor mccheese, Oh, Bertie.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I think there were some hash Browns I don't know
that had eyes.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yes, it was a whole universe out there. I mean,
these days it's it's great food, but it's just food.
Back then, it was a story. I was eating a village.
It was wonderful.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
It felt like Lord of the Rings, but with fries.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Now have you it really did, didn't it? And I
mean some theorized that Tolkien did right the McDonald's land story. Well,
have you heard the news out of the US, Zach
that after the success of the Grimmer Shake last year,
McDonald's have decided to bring back another old McDonald's land character,
one I'd never heard of before. Uh, No, you haven't
(03:56):
heard about this, Okay, So do you know any of
Grimmers's family relations?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Who do you know?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Well, I just all I know is that Grimace is
the name of the race, right, so that all the
creatures it's not of Grimace. Particularly.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
This is from the Today Show in the US when
Grimace announced Grimma would be on stage and never listen
to this.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
It's joyful, generous green Irish relative.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Uncle uncle.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Rewriting history, Uncle Mcgrimercy was not a part of McDonald's land.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Uncle Oh Grimmercy absolutely was. I've looked into this, Uncle
O Grimacy, Mate, I've done a deep dive into Grimace
and the Grimmas family. It is fascinating stuff. And Uncle
O Grimacy is is a green Grimace. Where's a green hat,
a vest with shamrocks on it? And every March around
Saint Patrick's Day he delivers shamrock shakes into McDonald's land.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Now is there just a Grimace for every holiday? Is
there a Grimmace Christmas Eve, well Easter?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
No? But I do you want to know a bit
about Grimace's family because I did do some research? Is interesting? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
So Grimace apparently he's got a mom called Grimma Beth.
He's got a dad called Louis Grimace, a grandma named Winky.
I don't know about Winky, a great great grandma named
Jenny Grimace, and a brother named King Gonger who rules
over all Grimaces.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
So how is there a Jenny in a King Gonger
in the same family. It feels like some of them
have kind of more out there names, some have very
straight names.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Well, he's got two aunts called Milly and Tilly who
apparently what's the story here. Apparently there's a story where
Ronald once mistakes them for ants instead of aunts, because
you know, in your pronounce aunts in the US, you
say my aunt and Ronald.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
And to see some of that stuff. Yes, I've tried
to look up. Yeah, because there's kind of rumors that
it was a TV show. Yeah, Yes, I've heard that too,
and I can't find anything on it.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I'm waiting for the live action film, right reboot. Well,
I'm just saying, every big cartoon, every big you know
world that was once loved in cartoon form has been
made into a big budget live action film, and I
think it's time that we bring McDonald's Leanto film. I
reckon it'd be brilliant.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well, it reminds me a little bit of Wicked, Yes,
and that went huge this year, didn't it.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
How does it remind you of Wicked? Tell me how?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Because it feels like the same universe. You could do
the Wizard of.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
That would be good that's good stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast. Getting to
know You, Getting to know about.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
This is basically a chance for us to share some
stories from maybe the years and and see what the
things that you might not have heard about Zach and
I are yet. So we have a wheel, Zac, We
spin this wheel and there's a bunch of Dom envelopes,
a bunch of Zach envelopes. Whatever comes up, that's the
story you have to share with the nation.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Okay, where's the wheel?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Where's That's a good question. I thought you'd have the
wheel ready to go. We have previously shared the story
of me doing a streaking run over the radio station
balcony a number of years ago, and we've also shared
the story recently, Zach of you being kicked off your
community guard and pensioners are here we go. What have
(07:30):
we got tonight, Zach or Dom?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
What's that root?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Zach? Oh, HiT's a Zach. Okay, well, let me get
that envelope, pass it here, and let's see what do
you got for me? True or false? You know how
many hundreds and thousands are in a box of hundreds
and thousands?
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yes, I do?
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Secret knowledge?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Yeah, how many is.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
It's only for people who have done the work. And
I did do a three hour live stream where I
counted a jar of hundreds and thousands. That's correct. I
know the number.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Five years ago, six years ago, I reckon took.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Three and a half hours. Maybe a bit longer, Yeah,
and one by one because I wanted to know. They're
not very specific, are they. They just say hundreds and thousands? Well,
how many hundreds and how many thousands? Right?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
They don't put on there. I mean, we don't know
for sure if it's the same number in every single packet,
but roughly you wanted to figure out how many were
in there?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Now? Can I be guaranteed that the only people listening
right now are hundreds and thousand super fans?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah? Obvious?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, so if you're not a super fan, yeah, cover
your ears, tune out. Fifteen thousand, fifteen thousand?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Was it?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yeah? On the dot?
Speaker 2 (08:42):
On that it was not on the Dot? I don't
remember that fifteen thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Now, I know people are going to there's video footage,
so go look it up for yourself if you don't
believe me. But you know people won't believe that's true.
But doesn't fifteen thousand on the dot have just as
much chances and the other number.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, I mean it has a one in fifteen thousand chance,
the same odds as any other numbers. Well, I guess
I guess that's true. I guess that's true. Now, are
you sure? Because counting fifteen thousand, hundreds and thousands that's
a hard task. Are you sure you didn't double count
once or miss one?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
I mean, I'm welcome to people critiquing the footage. Go
through in slow motion if you want to. Yeah, it'll
take you eight hours.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Because it was the fact checkers, it would have been
an absolutely like imagine if you got three hours in
and then you realized you'd lost count.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah, do you know when the little counter? Yeah, Like
I wasn't just doing it out loud.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Okay, I mean I feel like if that's the case,
they should actually put that on the packet. I think
it would sell better if you knew you were buying
fifteen thousand, hundreds and thousands.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
And then you could order as many.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yes, I would like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You know, two hundred and forty hundreds and thousands on
top of my coffee? Please?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah? Who has one hundreds and thousands? On a coffee.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
It's a bit of a kid's hack, is it. Yeah,
well we put them on baby chinos. I was thinking,
but like a kid would in an order, I mean,
an adult wouldn't order a maybe you know Present Company
excluded because I know you love them.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I thought you were putting a hundreds and thousands on
your cold drip for a second there.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
No, no, no, no, no, I'm not into cold drip
an it's not good poover.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't even know what these mean.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Well, cold drip is cold water dripped overnight drip. Drip
drips shelle coffee yuck.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Poor over is where you pour it over with.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
The filter, right, and then you put on hundreds of
thousands on.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
No, but if kids don't want to eat things, so
for example porridge, oh now it's unicorn porridge. Yeah, got
hundreds and thousands on it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I will say. The only mistake you made in that
whole thing is not going to a university to get funding,
because one hundred percent there would have been some university
funding scheme.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Sometimes, don't you like these different subjects offered at these
different universities, right right? They you'd think an Australian university
could do hundreds and thousands because there would be a
class on fairy bread, class on baby chins.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yeah, it's good stuff, and one hundreds and thousands would
really prepare you for the hex stet as well, which
comes down the track.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Oh he's gone politically.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
He's doing gear well. Thank you for your contribution to science, Zach.
It's very much appreciated and it answers a question no
one was asking. This is second time, Zach, for the
very first time in twenty twenty five, I think it
might be time to check in with the Snack Report.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Now, Dom you fancy yourself like a financial kind of reporter, yep,
But for snacks.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Well, basically you look into other shows and as you said,
whether it's the stock market they're giving you, you know,
expect tips on maybe the real estate market. The only
expertise this show has is snacks. And so like they
cross to comsick, you cross to me in the confectionery
aisle and I give you a stack up date.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Now, usually we haven't done the Snack Report in a while,
so I'm a bit fuzzy, but from memory, you would
give us a snack on the rise and a snack
that's falling off a little bit like the stocks, and
you've never been correct on any of them.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Well not yet, but I mean, like the stock market,
sometimes it's a long game, mate, And I'm just saying
you've got to stick with snacks for the long term.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
All right. That is that the format we're going with.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
This is a breaking new stock report. Actually, okay, this
is a bit of breaking news. Headline would be if
I was on the TV, there'd be a banner underneath
me that would say Skittles shock, a bit of alliteration.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
We've interrupted programming.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now, when's the last time you treated yourself to a
packet of original Skittles? This is the red packet, not
the sours, the originals.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I don't know if I've ever purchased one.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You've never had a packet of Skittles?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In what context would I buy one?
Speaker 2 (12:45):
You want a delicious treat, mate, like.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
At a kid's party.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Maybe you'mund a Lolli's man, are you? You're you're a
chocolate and chips man, But you're not much of a
Lolli's man.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Well, they don't do anything.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
What do you mean?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know chocolate has some fat in it? Yeah, so
it feels you up a little bit. Don't go anti lollies, mate,
it's a snack report.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Ease up.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Like, I can't imagine walking into the supermarket, going to
the lolli aisle and what stocking up on skittles?
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, just fair. Well, it's a nice tree. I mean,
is it such a crime to have a nice tree. Look,
here's my question to you. What I'm going to give
you some color skittles. You tell me the flavor you
think it is.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I couldn't.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Okay, what do you think? Let's just say yellow? That's
an easy one, Yeah, lemon, lemon skittle? Right? Red? What's
a red one?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Probably?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Oh? Yeah, I mean it's an easy but is another barrier?
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's a very yeah. Yeah. What about green? I'd say apple?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Interesting you say that, so so would the skittles manufacturers
in Australia.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, like I should be doing the sac repot. It
doesn't seem like you're in chimed with snacks at all.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
No green skittle in Australia. My whole life, I've grown
up with this green apple. But recently I traveled overseas.
Did you know in the rest of the world, their
green skittle is a different flavor lime lime, the rest
of the wall having different skittles skittle shock.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Now, I might throw something out here and suggest that
maybe they're not even different flavors at all.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
No, they are. They are noticeably different flavors. I hate
the green skittle in Australia. I loved it overseas. Yeah,
I know I like a lime flavor. I like a
lime flavor.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
But isn't it just like I think they're all what
I'm saying, yes, is that apple, lemon, lime all pretty similar? Well,
can you explain to me then it's all in the
mind the different colors. Well, it's not, I'm telling you
for sure, like fruit loops. Fruit loops are all the
same flavor different. When you're a kid, you think that
they're different, But they're just different colors.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
I'm telling you, mate, I love the lime skittles. I
hate the green apple ones.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, it's in your head.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
If I was blindfolded, I could pick it easy. I mean,
I'm serious. I know that's a game we've done a
million times.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Have you done it with skittles?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Not with skittles?
Speaker 1 (14:52):
No, And you've also never got any of.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Those right, Okay with skittles. That's so easy. Anyway, listening
to this is a Skittles officientad.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
You can probably find some skittles around here. Let's do
it up next.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
All right after this, I'll do a Skittles blind taste test.
I mean, I feel like this is going to be
the easiest taste test on the planet. But I'll pick
the colors.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
And I'm also sussed that you knew that I'd go
in this direction, and you're trying to backwards force you
eating skittles into the show.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
It's a tactic I'm working on. We'll find out if
the Skittles flavors are that obvious. On the other side
of this.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
The Zack and Dom podcast. Now, Dom did just make
the claim on the show that the skittles, as in
the lolly that everyone has grown up loving, are all
different flavors. I think that despite them being different colors,
that all the same flavor, which Dom thinks is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Are you saying it's like fruit loops? I know fruit
lips are the same flavor but different colors. But skittles
actually are different flavors. Everyone knows this.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
So we've run out and got some skittles. Dom's wearing
a blindfold I'm not super confident that he can't see
out of it, because domb cheeks on these things the time.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Mate, What do you think I have gain out of
cheating in a skin taste?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yes, you're quoting me every time you cheat. Now I
need to put this to the test to see if
you can see a n Oh, what was that? I
threw a penit in? He didn't see it.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
You can't just throw pins at me.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I thought you could see.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I came. Well, I promise I can't seek seeking. You're
not throwing.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I got your right between the eye.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
You did it, all right, So I'm gonna well have
a few skills.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Hold up the Yeah, Doom's gonna do a taste test
here to see if he can prove it. He has
to correctly identify the colors in a blind tastest. Hold
it up first, and then eat it. Yep, you can
see the color it.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Is, all right, let's let's go. Okay, it's either red
or purple, immediately scrape or strawberry. But I think that's purple. Great?
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Come on, all I told you about the different flovers.
This isn't even interesting.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, well, you weren't confident though you had you came
up with two.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Alright, what have we got here?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
They're a different color? Yep? Well, actually I should tell
you if it's a different color, because you could use
a process of elimination. It's true.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Here we go, yellow, it's correct.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
What's that lemon?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yep? I know them by their color, mate, not they
are favor So if I get one more? How many
do you want me to do you?
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Because how many are there?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
There's five different colors?
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Well, I think you need to get at least three. Okay,
all right, here we go. We've got one another one
yep mm green?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
No, really red? It was a real bomb.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Oh yeah, it was like can taste of Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, now you can once I tell you, all right,
that's two from three. If you can get one more,
I will let you pass. Okay, it's not amazing. Yeah,
that's a new one.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Too, okay, go.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Hmm, what do you think it is?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think that's red?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
No, that's purple. Gosh, so heating at fifty percent, so
I would say that's probably you know, at a guessing.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Level, I was seriously confident that I'd be able to
do that. I mean I was adamantly sure there were
different flavors. I think the pressure of the moment got
to me.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Either that or you gave me a mild concussion when
you threw a pen at my head and I'm not
making any sense now, or there you go.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
The skittles are not different flavors. The more Dom's taste
bunds don't work. You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Sure ahead, make my day. Every single day is a holiday. Dom.
Some of these days and need a little bit of
(18:42):
help though, because they're kind of a little low key,
a little bit lesser known. That's why you and I
are tried to do our part. Each night, I bring
two days to the show, each occurring in the next
twenty four hours. You and I have to pick one
each to become ambassadors for Well.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
We are just a couple of hours from hitting Friday,
the seventh of February. Now, I know next Friday is
Valentine's Day, but I didn't think this Friday was a
holiday at or what am I.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Missing National Working Naked Day? I mean this is industry specific,
I would hope. Well, there are some jobs that probably
aren't especially safe to do naked, like if you're in construction. Yeah,
probably you want your steel cap boots and in some
sort of enclosed, tel capped underwear.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Well, just if you were going past a roadwork site
and there Jack Cameron nude. I just feel like that
will probably is an ideal.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Sun safety as well. Well, there's that as well, right,
you don't want to get sunburn on? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
So what jobs can you do naked? What?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Work from home? Yeah, that's what this is getting at.
Apparently when this was invented, working from home wasn't very common,
so there was a way to drum up a little
bit of a pr around it.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
How would you feel And I know you're not obviously
seeing anything, but if you had a if someone here
at the radio station, maybe in the sales team, were
sending you emails through the day, and then you found
out later they work from home and sent those emails
in the nude, how would that make you feel? M
totally fine.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Some people we get emails from I don't know anyway. Yeah, yeah,
because we're here at night, we don't know what they
look like.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
That's a good point.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
We don't know where.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
They sit, how old they are, Ye, that's true.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
If they have brown hair or blonde hair, so they
it wouldn't really wouldn't make a difference.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It doesn't bother you.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Okay, in their own time, they can do whatever they want.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, no, I agree with that. I agree with that.
I mean there's just something about it just as a
very intimate way to imagine doing business.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Well, you've been naked at work before.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Why this is the second time you brought this this week?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Because people who heard that will be thinking, why isn't
he talking about that?
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Because Dom asked him not to bring it up again?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
You were he did a streaking run on the show
because you thought that it would get you a good,
big slot a decade ago. And when you say a
big slot, that's not a euphemism. Let's be abundantly clear here.
And you got stuck on the belcony. It did get
stuck on the balcony because you left your passing your pants.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah back inside. I mean again that die. We never
had to speak about that again for some reason.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Like that was probably around this time of year.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Actually, yeah, well so at least it wasn't winter. That's
a bonus.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
It's also National bubble Gum Day. It's a bit of fun,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Now? Is there a difference between bubble gum and chewing gum. No, no,
the same thing, I think so yeah. So Extra and
Hubba Bubba they're.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Different textures, aren't they. But I think they would be
based on the same gum.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
The same recipe.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Well, no, slightly different recipes, but they'll have the same
kind of corn.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I guess bubble gum. I think bubble gum, and I
think Extra doesn't blow a good bubble Hubba Bubba does.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Oh will here you go? Actually, yep, I'm just reading
through this little page.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
If you're about to tell me if bubble gum was
invented in four thousand, seems.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Like bubble gum and chewing gum are different. Really, they
have different invention dates. Now I want you to predict
both of them.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Okay, well, I'm guessing chewing gum came first, correct, So
I'll say chewing gum was. I'm trying to think when
I've seen it in the movies in fifty four and
bubblegum nineteen seventy seven.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Bubble gum nineteen twenty eight. Okay, yeah, a bit further
back than what you thought. Between the two World Wars,
Chewing gum fifteen forty Get.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Out chewing gum wasn't around in.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The fifteen hegues not only at least I think it
had been around for a while before that, because this
was just in fifteen forty. There was a publication of
social rules for chewing gum. It was ridden by a
friar what a series of books, documents, and various social
norms for Aztec people, including the rule that men and
married women who chewed gum in public were considered to
(22:38):
be bad people. Children and old women were exceptions, apparently
according to this.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Wonder why that's the case. So you're telling me Shakespeare
could a chewed gum.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Probably was.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Right. So he was sitting there in the globe here
to watch in the premiere of Romeo, and he brought
it to the snack bar.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Yes, someone was doing that in the crowd, and he
got really pissed. Keep it down. Don't you know this
as a class? Like?
Speaker 2 (23:00):
How can it be a classic?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
It just opened it. He's like, you have no idea
they're going to be talking about this for centuries.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Okay, I find that hard to believe.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
You know, this is an official website. You can't just
make these up.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Okay, what's your what's your preferred gum. What's your gum
of choice?
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Well, is there that many options? Like there's we've had
the same three. There haven't been a new player in
the well, there was that five sensors. They came on
the scene pretty hard, remember five gum, and then they
fell off? Yes, favorite, you know I'm not. I'm a
bit impartial to Uh, don't mind a p K.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Are you're a PK man.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Yeah, throw it out there.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I'm a juicy fruits guy. Give me some Wriggly's juicy fruits,
but also a Bubba bubble.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Tape of course, the refined. Yeah, you like to pull
a little bit out yep, I bet you. I can remember.
I bet you were someone who occasionally opened it up
and bit into it like an apple.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Of course, I like to think more like a pie.
That's sort of the decks. Which one of these do
you want?
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
You take your pick.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Well, I'm gonna have Bubblegum Day if you should. No, yeah,
it's ten years on, No, mate, a bit of a
celebration work nude.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Okay, Well, do you know what? I don't think I'll
do that. Let's both have Bubblegum Day. Hey, let's do
it that way. That is that we got time for
on this show. Hey, if you want to catch up
on the Zach and Dom show, you can find us
in your podcast feed. Just search for Zach and Dom
and you'll see the show there and we'll catch you
next time. Ah.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
That's all for this episode of the Zack and Doom podcast.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Subscribe to catch the boys next time and follow them
on socials at Zac and Dom
A long time ago, in a lab far far away,
a science experiment went horribly wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Out of that Disney fat rolls, Zach, And have you
ever like this, like ste this happened when second kids.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
This is Zac and dom.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Oh, it is so wonderful to be here with you
on this wonderful Thursday night. Are you noticing the lights
just starting to fade a little bit earlier in the day.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah, you can see it minute and actually it feels
like it accelerates a little bit. It's like, yep, stays
the same time, stays the same time.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yep. I feel that February is when it just starts dipping.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
And I don't know the science behind that, whether that's
true or just something I've observed.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Well, I reckon. When you're in January, you still feel
like New Year's was so close. This Christmas was just
the other day. But once you hit February, you're on
your march towards the dark.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I know what I'm hearing around a little bit.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
What are you hearing some coughing? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Yeah, And I was like, no, no, no, no no,
because last year is Easter for us in my family. Yeah,
we were all good until Easter and then we had
a run of like three months of sickness, and so
I'm like, no, please.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
It was a nightmare for you guys last year, wasn't it.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, I'm hoping not a repeat this year. Yeah, got
two young kids, it's pretty hard to avoid.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Now We'll look all the best to you and everyone
else out there. As we do approach the darkness, the
darkness returns. That's a fun way to start an FM
radio show, isn't it. Yeah, the darkness is coming everyone.
But hey, look there's good news anyway, because on the
show tonight we are bringing back, for the first time
in twenty twenty five, the much loved Snack Report.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
This is where Dom gives us an update on what's
happening in the snack world, similar to the Stock Report,
It's like com sick yep for snacks. What's on the
way up, what's on the way down? What you should
be buying? What should you be getting rid of? Now?
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Sel sell over Thestmas break I took. You know, some
people might go to Wall Street and ring the bell,
you know, and the.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Stock I had to open up the market for the day,
opens the.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Stock market for the day. Well, I did the equivalent
of that in the confectionery world.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
What's ringing the confectionery bell.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
But basically it's just going from a confectionery store to
store across the world and ringing up the register. All right,
I thought you.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Might kind of rattle lock into surprise or something.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
That would work. That would work. But all I can say,
and I'll tease this to you now, groundbreaking skittles news,
big skittles news coming up.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Mate.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
If you're a Skittles lover, if at some point in
your life you have been a Skittles lover, you're gonna
want to hang around to hear this bombshell Skittles reporter.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
It's a skittle scandal made. It's certainly getting close to that.
It's and you know what can I add to that
global skittle scandal. We'll get to that in a moment.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
This is second Tom Zach. Anytime there's news out of
McDonald's land, this show needs to cover it. We're big
lovers of McDonald's land, aren't we.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
McDonald's Land is, far as I'm aware, is the fictitious
land where all the McDonald's characters live. And now it's
not just Ronald bar Bertie and Grimers. There's also a
whole lot of other characters that have kind of faded
to the background in McDonald's kind of marketing at the moment.
But when we were.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Kids, Mayor mccheese, Oh, Bertie.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I think there were some hash Browns I don't know
that had eyes.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yes, it was a whole universe out there. I mean,
these days it's it's great food, but it's just food.
Back then, it was a story. I was eating a village.
It was wonderful.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
It felt like Lord of the Rings, but with fries.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Now have you it really did, didn't it? And I
mean some theorized that Tolkien did right the McDonald's land story. Well,
have you heard the news out of the US, Zach
that after the success of the Grimmer Shake last year,
McDonald's have decided to bring back another old McDonald's land character,
one I'd never heard of before. Uh, No, you haven't
(03:56):
heard about this, Okay, So do you know any of
Grimmers's family relations?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Who do you know?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Well, I just all I know is that Grimace is
the name of the race, right, so that all the
creatures it's not of Grimace. Particularly.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
This is from the Today Show in the US when
Grimace announced Grimma would be on stage and never listen
to this.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
It's joyful, generous green Irish relative.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Uncle uncle.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Rewriting history, Uncle Mcgrimercy was not a part of McDonald's land.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Uncle Oh Grimmercy absolutely was. I've looked into this, Uncle
O Grimacy, Mate, I've done a deep dive into Grimace
and the Grimmas family. It is fascinating stuff. And Uncle
O Grimacy is is a green Grimace. Where's a green hat,
a vest with shamrocks on it? And every March around
Saint Patrick's Day he delivers shamrock shakes into McDonald's land.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Now is there just a Grimace for every holiday? Is
there a Grimmace Christmas Eve, well Easter?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
No? But I do you want to know a bit
about Grimace's family because I did do some research? Is interesting? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
So Grimace apparently he's got a mom called Grimma Beth.
He's got a dad called Louis Grimace, a grandma named Winky.
I don't know about Winky, a great great grandma named
Jenny Grimace, and a brother named King Gonger who rules
over all Grimaces.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
So how is there a Jenny in a King Gonger
in the same family. It feels like some of them
have kind of more out there names, some have very
straight names.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Well, he's got two aunts called Milly and Tilly who
apparently what's the story here. Apparently there's a story where
Ronald once mistakes them for ants instead of aunts, because
you know, in your pronounce aunts in the US, you
say my aunt and Ronald.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
And to see some of that stuff. Yes, I've tried
to look up. Yeah, because there's kind of rumors that
it was a TV show. Yeah, Yes, I've heard that too,
and I can't find anything on it.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I'm waiting for the live action film, right reboot. Well,
I'm just saying, every big cartoon, every big you know
world that was once loved in cartoon form has been
made into a big budget live action film, and I
think it's time that we bring McDonald's Leanto film. I
reckon it'd be brilliant.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well, it reminds me a little bit of Wicked, Yes,
and that went huge this year, didn't it.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
How does it remind you of Wicked? Tell me how?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Because it feels like the same universe. You could do
the Wizard of.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
That would be good that's good stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast. Getting to
know You, Getting to know about.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
This is basically a chance for us to share some
stories from maybe the years and and see what the
things that you might not have heard about Zach and
I are yet. So we have a wheel, Zac, We
spin this wheel and there's a bunch of Dom envelopes,
a bunch of Zach envelopes. Whatever comes up, that's the
story you have to share with the nation.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Okay, where's the wheel?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Where's That's a good question. I thought you'd have the
wheel ready to go. We have previously shared the story
of me doing a streaking run over the radio station
balcony a number of years ago, and we've also shared
the story recently, Zach of you being kicked off your
community guard and pensioners are here we go. What have
(07:30):
we got tonight, Zach or Dom?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
What's that root?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Zach? Oh, HiT's a Zach. Okay, well, let me get
that envelope, pass it here, and let's see what do
you got for me? True or false? You know how
many hundreds and thousands are in a box of hundreds
and thousands?
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yes, I do?
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Secret knowledge?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Yeah, how many is.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
It's only for people who have done the work. And
I did do a three hour live stream where I
counted a jar of hundreds and thousands. That's correct. I
know the number.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Five years ago, six years ago, I reckon took.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Three and a half hours. Maybe a bit longer, Yeah,
and one by one because I wanted to know. They're
not very specific, are they. They just say hundreds and thousands? Well,
how many hundreds and how many thousands? Right?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
They don't put on there. I mean, we don't know
for sure if it's the same number in every single packet,
but roughly you wanted to figure out how many were
in there?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Now? Can I be guaranteed that the only people listening
right now are hundreds and thousand super fans?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah? Obvious?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, so if you're not a super fan, yeah, cover
your ears, tune out. Fifteen thousand, fifteen thousand?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Was it?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yeah? On the dot?
Speaker 2 (08:42):
On that it was not on the Dot? I don't
remember that fifteen thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Now, I know people are going to there's video footage,
so go look it up for yourself if you don't
believe me. But you know people won't believe that's true.
But doesn't fifteen thousand on the dot have just as
much chances and the other number.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, I mean it has a one in fifteen thousand chance,
the same odds as any other numbers. Well, I guess
I guess that's true. I guess that's true. Now, are
you sure? Because counting fifteen thousand, hundreds and thousands that's
a hard task. Are you sure you didn't double count
once or miss one?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
I mean, I'm welcome to people critiquing the footage. Go
through in slow motion if you want to. Yeah, it'll
take you eight hours.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Because it was the fact checkers, it would have been
an absolutely like imagine if you got three hours in
and then you realized you'd lost count.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah, do you know when the little counter? Yeah, Like
I wasn't just doing it out loud.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Okay, I mean I feel like if that's the case,
they should actually put that on the packet. I think
it would sell better if you knew you were buying
fifteen thousand, hundreds and thousands.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
And then you could order as many.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yes, I would like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You know, two hundred and forty hundreds and thousands on
top of my coffee? Please?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah? Who has one hundreds and thousands? On a coffee.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
It's a bit of a kid's hack, is it. Yeah,
well we put them on baby chinos. I was thinking,
but like a kid would in an order, I mean,
an adult wouldn't order a maybe you know Present Company
excluded because I know you love them.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I thought you were putting a hundreds and thousands on
your cold drip for a second there.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
No, no, no, no, no, I'm not into cold drip
an it's not good poover.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't even know what these mean.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Well, cold drip is cold water dripped overnight drip. Drip
drips shelle coffee yuck.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Poor over is where you pour it over with.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
The filter, right, and then you put on hundreds of
thousands on.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
No, but if kids don't want to eat things, so
for example porridge, oh now it's unicorn porridge. Yeah, got
hundreds and thousands on it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I will say. The only mistake you made in that
whole thing is not going to a university to get funding,
because one hundred percent there would have been some university
funding scheme.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Sometimes, don't you like these different subjects offered at these
different universities, right right? They you'd think an Australian university
could do hundreds and thousands because there would be a
class on fairy bread, class on baby chins.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yeah, it's good stuff, and one hundreds and thousands would
really prepare you for the hex stet as well, which
comes down the track.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Oh he's gone politically.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
He's doing gear well. Thank you for your contribution to science, Zach.
It's very much appreciated and it answers a question no
one was asking. This is second time, Zach, for the
very first time in twenty twenty five, I think it
might be time to check in with the Snack Report.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Now, Dom you fancy yourself like a financial kind of reporter, yep,
But for snacks.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Well, basically you look into other shows and as you said,
whether it's the stock market they're giving you, you know,
expect tips on maybe the real estate market. The only
expertise this show has is snacks. And so like they
cross to comsick, you cross to me in the confectionery
aisle and I give you a stack up date.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Now, usually we haven't done the Snack Report in a while,
so I'm a bit fuzzy, but from memory, you would
give us a snack on the rise and a snack
that's falling off a little bit like the stocks, and
you've never been correct on any of them.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Well not yet, but I mean, like the stock market,
sometimes it's a long game, mate, And I'm just saying
you've got to stick with snacks for the long term.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
All right. That is that the format we're going with.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
This is a breaking new stock report. Actually, okay, this
is a bit of breaking news. Headline would be if
I was on the TV, there'd be a banner underneath
me that would say Skittles shock, a bit of alliteration.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
We've interrupted programming.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now, when's the last time you treated yourself to a
packet of original Skittles? This is the red packet, not
the sours, the originals.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I don't know if I've ever purchased one.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You've never had a packet of Skittles?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
In what context would I buy one?
Speaker 2 (12:45):
You want a delicious treat, mate, like.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
At a kid's party.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Maybe you'mund a Lolli's man, are you? You're you're a
chocolate and chips man, But you're not much of a
Lolli's man.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Well, they don't do anything.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
What do you mean?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know chocolate has some fat in it? Yeah, so
it feels you up a little bit. Don't go anti lollies, mate,
it's a snack report.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Ease up.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Like, I can't imagine walking into the supermarket, going to
the lolli aisle and what stocking up on skittles?
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, just fair. Well, it's a nice tree. I mean,
is it such a crime to have a nice tree. Look,
here's my question to you. What I'm going to give
you some color skittles. You tell me the flavor you
think it is.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I couldn't.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Okay, what do you think? Let's just say yellow? That's
an easy one, Yeah, lemon, lemon skittle? Right? Red? What's
a red one?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Probably?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Oh? Yeah, I mean it's an easy but is another barrier?
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's a very yeah. Yeah. What about green? I'd say apple?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Interesting you say that, so so would the skittles manufacturers
in Australia.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Yeah, like I should be doing the sac repot. It
doesn't seem like you're in chimed with snacks at all.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
No green skittle in Australia. My whole life, I've grown
up with this green apple. But recently I traveled overseas.
Did you know in the rest of the world, their
green skittle is a different flavor lime lime, the rest
of the wall having different skittles skittle shock.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Now, I might throw something out here and suggest that
maybe they're not even different flavors at all.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
No, they are. They are noticeably different flavors. I hate
the green skittle in Australia. I loved it overseas. Yeah,
I know I like a lime flavor. I like a
lime flavor.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
But isn't it just like I think they're all what
I'm saying, yes, is that apple, lemon, lime all pretty similar? Well,
can you explain to me then it's all in the
mind the different colors. Well, it's not, I'm telling you
for sure, like fruit loops. Fruit loops are all the
same flavor different. When you're a kid, you think that
they're different, But they're just different colors.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
I'm telling you, mate, I love the lime skittles. I
hate the green apple ones.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, it's in your head.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
If I was blindfolded, I could pick it easy. I mean,
I'm serious. I know that's a game we've done a
million times.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Have you done it with skittles?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Not with skittles?
Speaker 1 (14:52):
No, And you've also never got any of.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Those right, Okay with skittles. That's so easy. Anyway, listening
to this is a Skittles officientad.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
You can probably find some skittles around here. Let's do
it up next.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
All right after this, I'll do a Skittles blind taste test.
I mean, I feel like this is going to be
the easiest taste test on the planet. But I'll pick
the colors.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
And I'm also sussed that you knew that I'd go
in this direction, and you're trying to backwards force you
eating skittles into the show.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
It's a tactic I'm working on. We'll find out if
the Skittles flavors are that obvious. On the other side
of this.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
The Zack and Dom podcast. Now, Dom did just make
the claim on the show that the skittles, as in
the lolly that everyone has grown up loving, are all
different flavors. I think that despite them being different colors,
that all the same flavor, which Dom thinks is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Are you saying it's like fruit loops? I know fruit
lips are the same flavor but different colors. But skittles
actually are different flavors. Everyone knows this.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
So we've run out and got some skittles. Dom's wearing
a blindfold I'm not super confident that he can't see
out of it, because domb cheeks on these things the time.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Mate, What do you think I have gain out of
cheating in a skin taste?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yes, you're quoting me every time you cheat. Now I
need to put this to the test to see if
you can see a n Oh, what was that? I
threw a penit in? He didn't see it.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
You can't just throw pins at me.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I thought you could see.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I came. Well, I promise I can't seek seeking. You're
not throwing.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I got your right between the eye.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
You did it, all right, So I'm gonna well have
a few skills.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Hold up the Yeah, Doom's gonna do a taste test
here to see if he can prove it. He has
to correctly identify the colors in a blind tastest. Hold
it up first, and then eat it. Yep, you can
see the color it.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Is, all right, let's let's go. Okay, it's either red
or purple, immediately scrape or strawberry. But I think that's purple. Great?
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Come on, all I told you about the different flovers.
This isn't even interesting.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, well, you weren't confident though you had you came
up with two.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Alright, what have we got here?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
They're a different color? Yep? Well, actually I should tell
you if it's a different color, because you could use
a process of elimination. It's true.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Here we go, yellow, it's correct.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
What's that lemon?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yep? I know them by their color, mate, not they
are favor So if I get one more? How many
do you want me to do you?
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Because how many are there?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
There's five different colors?
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Well, I think you need to get at least three. Okay,
all right, here we go. We've got one another one
yep mm green?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
No, really red? It was a real bomb.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Oh yeah, it was like can taste of Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, now you can once I tell you, all right,
that's two from three. If you can get one more,
I will let you pass. Okay, it's not amazing. Yeah,
that's a new one.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Too, okay, go.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Hmm, what do you think it is?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think that's red?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
No, that's purple. Gosh, so heating at fifty percent, so
I would say that's probably you know, at a guessing.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Level, I was seriously confident that I'd be able to
do that. I mean I was adamantly sure there were
different flavors. I think the pressure of the moment got
to me.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Either that or you gave me a mild concussion when
you threw a pen at my head and I'm not
making any sense now, or there you go.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
The skittles are not different flavors. The more Dom's taste
bunds don't work. You're listening to the Zach and Dom podcast.
Sure ahead, make my day. Every single day is a holiday. Dom.
Some of these days and need a little bit of
(18:42):
help though, because they're kind of a little low key,
a little bit lesser known. That's why you and I
are tried to do our part. Each night, I bring
two days to the show, each occurring in the next
twenty four hours. You and I have to pick one
each to become ambassadors for Well.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
We are just a couple of hours from hitting Friday,
the seventh of February. Now, I know next Friday is
Valentine's Day, but I didn't think this Friday was a
holiday at or what am I.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Missing National Working Naked Day? I mean this is industry specific,
I would hope. Well, there are some jobs that probably
aren't especially safe to do naked, like if you're in construction. Yeah,
probably you want your steel cap boots and in some
sort of enclosed, tel capped underwear.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Well, just if you were going past a roadwork site
and there Jack Cameron nude. I just feel like that
will probably is an ideal.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Sun safety as well. Well, there's that as well, right,
you don't want to get sunburn on? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
So what jobs can you do naked? What?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Work from home? Yeah, that's what this is getting at.
Apparently when this was invented, working from home wasn't very common,
so there was a way to drum up a little
bit of a pr around it.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
How would you feel And I know you're not obviously
seeing anything, but if you had a if someone here
at the radio station, maybe in the sales team, were
sending you emails through the day, and then you found
out later they work from home and sent those emails
in the nude, how would that make you feel? M
totally fine.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Some people we get emails from I don't know anyway. Yeah, yeah,
because we're here at night, we don't know what they
look like.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
That's a good point.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
We don't know where.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
They sit, how old they are, Ye, that's true.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
If they have brown hair or blonde hair, so they
it wouldn't really wouldn't make a difference.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It doesn't bother you.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Okay, in their own time, they can do whatever they want.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, no, I agree with that. I agree with that.
I mean there's just something about it just as a
very intimate way to imagine doing business.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Well, you've been naked at work before.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Why this is the second time you brought this this week?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Because people who heard that will be thinking, why isn't
he talking about that?
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Because Dom asked him not to bring it up again?
Speaker 1 (20:41):
You were he did a streaking run on the show
because you thought that it would get you a good,
big slot a decade ago. And when you say a
big slot, that's not a euphemism. Let's be abundantly clear here.
And you got stuck on the belcony. It did get
stuck on the balcony because you left your passing your pants.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah back inside. I mean again that die. We never
had to speak about that again for some reason.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Like that was probably around this time of year.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Actually, yeah, well so at least it wasn't winter. That's
a bonus.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
It's also National bubble Gum Day. It's a bit of fun,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Now? Is there a difference between bubble gum and chewing gum. No, no,
the same thing, I think so yeah. So Extra and
Hubba Bubba they're.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Different textures, aren't they. But I think they would be
based on the same gum.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
The same recipe.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Well, no, slightly different recipes, but they'll have the same
kind of corn.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I guess bubble gum. I think bubble gum, and I
think Extra doesn't blow a good bubble Hubba Bubba does.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Oh will here you go? Actually, yep, I'm just reading
through this little page.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
If you're about to tell me if bubble gum was
invented in four thousand, seems.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Like bubble gum and chewing gum are different. Really, they
have different invention dates. Now I want you to predict
both of them.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Okay, well, I'm guessing chewing gum came first, correct, So
I'll say chewing gum was. I'm trying to think when
I've seen it in the movies in fifty four and
bubblegum nineteen seventy seven.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
Bubble gum nineteen twenty eight. Okay, yeah, a bit further
back than what you thought. Between the two World Wars,
Chewing gum fifteen forty Get.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Out chewing gum wasn't around in.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The fifteen hegues not only at least I think it
had been around for a while before that, because this
was just in fifteen forty. There was a publication of
social rules for chewing gum. It was ridden by a
friar what a series of books, documents, and various social
norms for Aztec people, including the rule that men and
married women who chewed gum in public were considered to
(22:38):
be bad people. Children and old women were exceptions, apparently
according to this.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Wonder why that's the case. So you're telling me Shakespeare
could a chewed gum.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Probably was.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Right. So he was sitting there in the globe here
to watch in the premiere of Romeo, and he brought
it to the snack bar.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Yes, someone was doing that in the crowd, and he
got really pissed. Keep it down. Don't you know this
as a class? Like?
Speaker 2 (23:00):
How can it be a classic?
Speaker 1 (23:01):
It just opened it. He's like, you have no idea
they're going to be talking about this for centuries.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Okay, I find that hard to believe.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
You know, this is an official website. You can't just
make these up.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Okay, what's your what's your preferred gum. What's your gum
of choice?
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Well, is there that many options? Like there's we've had
the same three. There haven't been a new player in
the well, there was that five sensors. They came on
the scene pretty hard, remember five gum, and then they
fell off? Yes, favorite, you know I'm not. I'm a
bit impartial to Uh, don't mind a p K.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Are you're a PK man.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Yeah, throw it out there.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I'm a juicy fruits guy. Give me some Wriggly's juicy fruits,
but also a Bubba bubble.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Tape of course, the refined. Yeah, you like to pull
a little bit out yep, I bet you. I can remember.
I bet you were someone who occasionally opened it up
and bit into it like an apple.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Of course, I like to think more like a pie.
That's sort of the decks. Which one of these do
you want?
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
You take your pick.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Well, I'm gonna have Bubblegum Day if you should. No, yeah,
it's ten years on, No, mate, a bit of a
celebration work nude.
Speaker 2 (24:15):

do that. Let's both have Bubblegum Day. Hey, let's do
