Episode Transcript
Welcome to The John's Family Podcast.
For this week Halloween theme.
Speaker 2Correct it is?
Does everyone to talk through their costumes?
Yeah, you've probably got the most effort, I would say to Jay.
Speaker 3And yet what I did was just go through my wardrobe and my makeup draw nothing brought in.
Speaker 4I believe that.
Speaker 2What are you though?
Explain it to the people, because.
Speaker 5Listening, I'm just creepy.
I don't know you.
Speaker 2I'm going to hang on.
I'm going to warn you one more time.
I'm not about this funny business today.
I get it spooky Halloween, but no more funny business.
I've asked you twice, explain what you are or face the consequences.
OK, We'll just stop right there then.
Speaker 5So I'm all in black, and also speak up because I'm all in black?
Is that okay?
I'm all in black.
Speaker 3I have a black plats, I have yellow sorry orange and black stripe hands a terrifying.
I have an extended lip and it looks like someone may have stitched up my lips at some stage.
Speaker 4I don't know.
Speaker 2That's what I would say.
It's like a skeleton.
Let's just say you're a skeleton outfits the dead.
Speaker 5Top and sort of a slash Wednesday ish.
Speaker 2Yeah, Wednesday, yeah, yeah, maybe.
Speaker 5Tuesday, perhaps Sunday.
Speaker 2I'm already off this idea.
Well are a minute and a half in and you've already lost me to an idea I was very happy about.
And you come in here and you were so energetic, and then you come in here and then my turns on and you start speaking like a mouse and then refuse I.
Speaker 5Was actually being in character, but then you berated me for that.
Speaker 4Tell you what character?
The character wasn't very engaging.
And as Batman again.
Speaker 5Creativity.
Speaker 4Yeah, the mask is a bit more realistic this time, although I just can't seem to make it work.
It's a bit of an angle, you know, Yeah, yeah, you know, I'll take it.
Speaker 1It's like Batman has been too many scrums over the years.
Cooper, no surprises me.
Speaker 5This came out of your wardrobe.
Speaker 2Elect Hannimal, Elector one of my favorite villains of all time, A man who eats someone else's face off that's not his own.
It's a yes for me.
It's a yes for me.
And I've got a little quiz later on my favorite movie villains, and you guys have to guess on how many victims you think they have.
Could I researched how many victims they've gone?
Oh, man, I'm always thinking, I'm always thinking it.
And Dad, you've come as yourself.
Speaker 5Yeah, he went to his wardrobe.
Speaker 1She rated Cooper's wardrobe.
And I'll come as Jeffrey Darmer.
Speaker 5What's with the bread rolls over the sign?
Speaker 6Well, Trish, what I've done.
Speaker 1I've prepared a meal for you and I and I think you'll find the meat in there quite.
Speaker 5Flesh and enjoy, don't I know?
I can't know.
Speaker 1It's a guys, it's white meat, and that the white meat is it's a fast twitch muscle, which means I've carves it off the hamstring.
Speaker 4I somehow you've turned that into like a football theme somehow.
Speaker 2Oh my god, that bread bad.
How long has that bread been there?
That was like biting?
I know, but do you hear how crunchy that is.
That's like a bread roll that is.
Speaker 4Makes very bright you feel like Trician Cooper?
Speaker 2Oh my lord?
What are absolutely that is?
It sounds like you're biting into someone's.
Speaker 1Ashes, biting into a dead person.
Yeah, dead sandwich.
Because in that movie, Jeffrey Darmer, it's a show.
Well it was a TV shap.
He turns up at his neighbour's place presents her with the sandwich.
Speaker 5Always right, I missed that.
I stopped it.
Speaker 2How chewy is that in your mouth?
Speaker 6Extremely?
Speaker 4It looks like there's no saliva in his mouth whatsoever.
It's like he's got cotton mouth.
Speaker 6I got.
I'm chewing on the fingers at the moment, so it's a little bit chewy.
I'm gonna say I'm not a fan of Halloween.
I just find Halloween snotty nosed, unappreciative.
Little people walking around with little mucus.
Speaker 5Kids or like mister sneeze everywhere.
Speaker 2Yeah, and kids that like they're all on sugar highs.
Speaker 1Yeah, and they put their hands into the lolly chart just put him in there.
They've had their fingers up their nose and probably wiping, scratching their asses, and then all of a sudden that yet, I'm going to put up a sign not here today, not here tonight, not here.
Speaker 2Ever when you've had trigger treaters, are you guys the kind of people that would say only take one?
Speaker 3Well, yeah, well remember at our old house, like we would have an influx of people, like people would drive down drop off their kids, and like it would be full on.
You'd go to the front door and there could be twenty children in our front yard.
So I actually did have to I think one time I had to send one of you guys out to go and get more lollies.
And I also, I don't go cheap.
I go for the wrapped lollies.
Yeah, for hygiene, hygiene and safety purpose.
Speaker 2Most people go for the wrap.
Speaker 1I'm going to say the challenge, Yeah, let's see if we can scare kids off off our front lawn when they come in a pretty good job, right Nolat The four of us operates as a four person combination and basically see if we can terrify the kids that they won't come any were near the front door.
Speaker 6I think we could do it.
Speaker 2Would you want to stood there?
Speaker 6That talk like ed Gan?
And yeah, that's who I actually thought you were, Edan Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2The thing about it, Dad, I like that you've come in character.
Let's let's get that character stopping your You're being that weird that I don't know if I can converse with a serial pest killer.
Speaker 3Yes, do you know what the origins of Halloween are?
I don't think a lot of people do.
Speaker 6It's a It's a Celtic pagan ritual.
Speaker 5What is that city?
Speaker 3Celtic is based off a Celtic festival called sam Hayne.
Yeah, but how does the pagans it's.
Speaker 6Paganism a gift to the gods.
Speaker 1At the end of every summer, they do a gift to the gods, hoping that there they that their winter crops will still come up.
Speaker 3Really, because I thought it was also like it later became a Christian observance of all hellos.
Speaker 6Goblin.
Speaker 4I don't have the headphones on today because I'm I'm I've got my Batman mask on.
I can't tell, but it feels really low without the headphones, Like are you with me?
Speaker 6Yeah?
Speaker 5Does it seem low?
Speaker 4I mean like the conversation with energy, Yeah, lack syenergy.
Speaker 2But then you and Dad debating on two origin stories of Halloween.
I will say, but it was very boring this one.
Speaker 6If you're a horror franchise, which would you be?
Speaker 2Cooper Human Centipede?
Speaker 5Is that horror film?
Speaker 2Can't pick my.
Speaker 6Yeah, I've never watched.
Speaker 2There's actually a podcast with the director.
I think Alec Baldwin.
He has got to put the thing.
I don't think he.
Speaker 6Released a Swedish guy who made it.
Speaker 2I don't think he released episodes anymore.
Really like Baldwin, but he he interviews the director who makes Human Centipede.
Weird kind of dude, normal enough, but he's a big like he doesn't see it as a joke, like because you would think the kind of person that makes that movie would like be a little bit sick in the head.
He sees it like as a as a message, like he kind of what's the message?
Speaker 5No, it's like that is that what they're doing?
Is it?
Speaker 6He does not practice what you prove, so he head to bottom.
Speaker 2It's like head to bottom.
I mean if you're in the Human Centipede, because the first one is three people, so it's like he kidnaps three people like backpackers, and then he shows Yeah, I had to ask, like so they look like a centipede, but you want to be at the front because he feeds the front person and then like if you're the last person.
Speaker 1Yeah, everybody the last one.
Human centerped three is like one hundred person center.
Speaker 4Three times in.
Speaker 5The have some weird movies.
Speaker 6It's funny that I go theory.
Cold weather cities.
Speaker 1Often the very smart people live in cold weather cities, but they're also a little bit sicky, a bit sicker.
Speaker 4Well, you don't see too many hot weather horror movies.
I don't see like movies in Miami that are like horror for Isn't it.
Speaker 5Like, I Know what you did last summer?
Speaker 2Yeah?
I don't know where that's set though, but I wouldn't really call generally summers like most places on Earth.
Speaker 6I'd say it's more of a Yellowstone Park, which one I know what you did last summer because it's a cabin.
Speaker 2No, no, okay, what's your one mate?
Speaker 6I've gone The Friday thirteenth.
Speaker 2Oh yes, Jason, probably Jason Borjas.
Speaker 1Who have respect for him, the man with the hockey mask and unquenchable bloodlust and fantastic movie.
First horror movie I ever really saw.
In fact, Friday the thirteenth, thirteenth two.
Speaker 6At the conclusion of.
Speaker 1The movie, Jason spoiler alert, jumps through someone's bedroom window and like attacks them and kills them For the next three years.
I pushed my bed away from that window.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, It's funny the things that like you fear in horror movies, and then how it'll affect like the amount of kids that would have seen movies where somebody underneath the bed grabs.
Speaker 5Someone, yeah, or the wardrobe in.
Speaker 2The closet, and then the amount of people that get scared of closets and under the bed.
Yeah, like he's one of those things.
Speaker 5And like with someone knocking at your door in.
Speaker 2The dimly litch streetl lights like flickering street lights, you know, like that that sinister esque where a street light is flickering.
Speaker 4That white light too, like even like the way they light it, like you know, there's like the soft light like the one we've got in this room, for example, but then you have those white lights that flicker and it's like it feels like you're in like underground.
Speaker 1Yeah it does.
Does you saw movies?
Yeah, that's flickering you know, you.
Speaker 4Know in the Joker movie when he's in the when he's in the bathroom dancing like that sort of like.
Speaker 5Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a fluorescent.
Speaker 4Yeah, so close to the I'm going to actually have to get this mask off soon because I've realized that I might be getting like what is it when you like hate somare spaces claustrophe?
Speaker 5Yeah, it is it blocking your nose.
Speaker 4It's blocking my nose.
At the same time, it's getting really hot.
Really, take it off and up and I'm actually like, you know, when you start getting so uncomfortable that like you start panicking, I've got mild panics happening.
Speaker 5Take it off that you take it off.
Speaker 2Oh god, it's actually it's the most realistic.
It's one of the most realistic Batman masks we've ever got.
Speaker 5Well, there's there's food for thought.
Think about the poor actors.
Speaker 1Well, we know a person, a family friend of sorts, who nearly died because she got there and she wore a rubbish nurses outfit waiting for the husband to get home, and then she went to take it take it off while he wasn't there.
She's gone to see him in it, and got stuck around her neck and she was literally suffocating.
Speaker 5She couldn't really.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, I know a guy that nearly died because he had like those overalls on that you go in swamps with and then I don't know exactly what they're called, but he tripped in the water.
And if you trip in, they drown you because they fill all the way to your legs and then you just sink sink and he sunk and then luckily someone helped him out.
Where was it?
It was down in Wodonga.
Speaker 6Yeah, Tributory makes you sink, doesn't It makes you makes you think?
Speaker 4Yeah, what yours?
Speaker 3Trush Mine is the Scary Movie franchise.
Speaker 5I like the spoof take that it takes.
Speaker 1Spoofake, spoof spoof is something something else.
Speaker 3And I just love that it sort of takes its plot ques from those nineties movies.
Speaker 2Scary Movie is in like the piss take one has like Charlie Sheen and.
Speaker 4I actually try to get coop of the go as the you know, the aliens from Scary Movie two that are they're on the field from the movie signs and they basically tell the President of the United States that they shake they pee from their fingers, but they also at the same time finger people's mouths to say hello with their fingers.
Speaker 2Yeah, they urinate out of their fingers.
Speaker 1Can I give you a list, a very quick list of the top seven highest grossing movie franchises in horror movie?
Speaker 5What do you think?
Try and guess?
Speaker 6Oh?
Speaker 2Yeah, can you let us guess?
Speaker 4Yes?
Speaker 6Have a crack?
What's the number one?
Speaker 4The best part of that is it's a good it's a good idea Cooper and Trush.
But the problem is it wasn't a part of Matthew's plan.
Speaker 6Everyone everyone has a crack of what's.
Speaker 3Not I actually think it might be my scary movie franchise because it's about five.
Speaker 2I wouldn't say I would say Sore is in the top seven.
Speaker 4Jack, I'm going to go with I'm going to go with the Halloween franchise.
Jack is right, Halloween is number one, and that's also that's also my my scariest horror.
Speaker 2Let us keep trying to hit it, like what is number may Elm Street?
Speaker 6Okay?
Speaker 4Ye?
Speaker 6Number elk Street is number three.
Scream is number four.
Speaker 4Jack, I'm going to go with night Mary on Elm Street.
I'm going to go with Saw before Yeah, oh Texas Chainsaw massacre.
Speaker 6Yep, number six, going to throw one?
Well done?
Saw his number five and there's two left?
Speaker 5Have we done?
Number two?
Speaker 6Yep was Friday thirteenth.
Speaker 2So which physicians are we missing?
Speaker 6We're you missing?
We need number five and number seven?
Speaker 2Why don't you?
Speaker 6Number five is sore?
Number seven.
It's got to do with a doll, Child's play.
Speaker 2Child's play?
Speaker 5Is that just one movie.
Speaker 4Look at you.
Speaker 5Four movie, because you need ones.
Speaker 6That Chucky's Pride.
Speaker 3Because the exorsus ones like that, they're just single movies then not going to make it.
Speaker 4Surprise, like, yeah, there's like paranormal activity and if all those.
Speaker 2Paranormal activity if I'm not correct, if I'm not wrong, I'm pretty sure that's the highest I thought that was the highest grossing individual movie.
Maybe you're think franchise it is because it cost them something like twenty thousand to make Paranormal Activities.
Because all they did was like they just had like CCTV footage.
Speaker 4I was like, yeah, it's like mockumentary.
That wasn't documentary.
It was like a serious documentary style for.
Speaker 6The horror movie.
Speaker 5Wasn't it fake in the end?
Speaker 4Yeah, well it's a movie.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3The most that they centered originally as a documentary as it was factual.
Speaker 5Is that true?
Speaker 2No, No, I'm pretty sure it was all it was
Speaker 4No?
Speaker 2just set like a documentary.
Speaker 6Other last just.
Speaker 1About the most profitable movie of all time as far as money put in.
Speaker 6You know, if you multiply is Blair Witch Project Project.
It costs something like thirty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3Another one of those your bloody joking.
Speaker 5Filming on the go, Can.
Speaker 3I just say something, if we were going to make a horror movie, what sort of theme would you go with?
Speaker 4That's a good that's a good question, Trichy.
You know what I'd do, Trisy.
I'd go with like eighties stole zombie movies, the ones where they're actually like kind of like not like coming at you like they do these days, Like the slow moving, slow death sort of zombie movies.
Speaker 6I like them.
Speaker 3I think i'd do something with the clown or like a circus around a circus.
Yeah, I do something around a circus, yeah, because they're kind of I don't know, they're kind of scary and the people involved can be scary.
Speaker 2I would I reckon I go one of like I don't know if you guys ever seen the Hills have Eyes?
Oh yeah, But I kind of go along the avenue of more of like a you're on your breakdown somewhere where there's no nothing around and you're looking and then like you know what I mean, that's I'd go that route more isolated because that's more realistic to me.
I'd like that's a fear of mind, like to be isolated with nothing around have to try to get.
Speaker 5Back that moves onto my greatest fears.
Speaker 1I'd make a movie that have a bit of suspense, but it's just more to the point where you put people a person's situation where you're watching going imagine if that was I and a couple of these is his number one is Hannibal Lector in that movie where he gets the guard and he changed the guard up and he's standing looking and that guard knows he's about to be eaten.
Saw movies and things like that where they know And that terrifying thing in the Ed Green One Jack was when they go to ted Bundy and he's got the two women he's abducted and he's working out which one he's going to murder first, and he pieces the one.
I'm gonna murder you first, but don't worry, you're going to watch it.
Speaker 6I'm going to do you after my dear sweet Jesus.
Speaker 1So if you make out a horror movie, don't work up to the line.
Start at the line that is.
Speaker 6Basically inappropriate and moves slightly backwards.
That's what I do.
Speaker 4That's very technical.
Speaker 5I thought about that.
That's concerning anyway.
Speaker 4I do flash to the scene in the well in Signs of the Lambs where the girl and Precious stuck in the well.
Yeah, I do.
I get freaked out by that.
Speaker 5I like that.
Speaker 4I think it's funny.
Speaker 5Of the Lambs doesn't.
Speaker 4But when you get in the actual like, like you start thinking if you're actually in that world, that makes me freak out.
Speaker 6It does.
Speaker 4Yeah, we've got nowhere to go, and this this blokes will.
Speaker 2Yeah, and he's like tucking's generals between his legs and dancing.
Speaker 1Entertaining and swear you spare a thought for sweet Migsy to wonder what is doing these days?
Speaker 6Yeah, the one where he walks past.
Speaker 1He's the guy in the next cell to Hannibal Lecter when Jodie Foster's character Clarice goes and interviews him for.
Speaker 6The first time.
And is that Charles Man seeing looking character in.
Speaker 1The next cell and he does something quite inappropriate?
Speaker 6Oh yeah, I can't remember it flicks.
Speaker 2It's a fair Yeah, we can edit that through.
Speaker 1Of course for people on YouTube you won't see that.
For people that are audio, I did something highly inappropriate.
Speaker 2Does anybody have real like a real fit, like either you have a phobia or the scariest experience that you've ever had in your life.
Speaker 3My scariest still to this day, care of Matthew John's was he took me on the zipper at the Newcastle Bloody Show in nineteen ninety six.
It was scary, and you tell the story, Matt, and I still have the backpack.
Speaker 5I had a little bag and I had to put her on the front because I was.
Speaker 3Sitting in the thing and I bit into it and it still has the teethmark in it.
Speaker 5And I got off and vomited.
Speaker 3And the one thing I said to Matt was because he's going, I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, and I went, just remind me when I'm in labor that nothing is as bad as this zipper.
Speaker 5Right, yes, but there was a little avent.
Speaker 1What the app The thing that happened was, as these people are getting.
Speaker 5Off the zipper and we're lining up to go, and.
Speaker 1We're lining up to get on, the people who got out said I think there's a problem with this carriage.
Every time it's spun, it was like it was going to just come off the door and the bike went, oh right, okay, we'll have a look at that.
Speaker 6He puts puts.
Speaker 1Us in the carriage and then shuts it and says to a bloke, Oh, mate, the people in the here before, reckon, this one's a little.
Speaker 6Loose, right.
Speaker 1The guy gets a guy looks and goes ideas a little bit run this one and then we'll fix it after, I swear to God.
Speaker 6Which wound?
Fucking what?
Speaker 3So every time you were upside down or facing the ground, because you hold onto the bar that's.
Speaker 6On the on the outside, on that on the.
Speaker 5Door, so and it's supposed to be fixed, it kept dropping.
Speaker 6Yeah.
Oh, as we're at the top spin down.
As the carriage would roll forward, the whole thing would shift forward.
Yeah, yeah, horrible.
Well you under the blade crying.
Speaker 2And that's the scariest istien you ever had, even like fear.
You never feared being abducted or anything like that.
Speaker 6No, oh, coeps yours.
Speaker 2I remember once Now this was this was a rough night for me, And it wasn't the jail that I was talking about the other night.
I remember.
It was in the Sunshine Coast twenty twenty one.
I I got out of the man at, I got out of our hub and went and stayed with my girlfriend at the time at her house.
She lived up there, yes, and the electricity cut out and a car sat out the front.
This is at about midnight, and then there was this We were like, oh, I wonder why the electricity's going out, and we looked and there was just a car that was sitting at the front, and then someone in it and then yeah, the lights are on, and then it drove off.
And then she started getting calls off no call or ID and was someone breathing and then we thought, oh, that's weird, like either we thought it was one of her friends, maybe pranking or something.
And then it rang me and started breathing to me, and then it was texting her saying like come downstairs and all this shit and it was so random.
And then we'd rang like we couldn't rang us.
Yeah, And I was like, there's some weird shit going on at this house.
None of the electricity would going I've never thought like I thought I was about to die.
There was a serious thought of me about to die, and I was trying to be tough like that, it's all good.
And then there was one there was at one stage, I'm not proud to say it, I said let's let's go hide in the closet because because if if the home invader comes in, they're not going to look for us in there.
Speaker 6Place.
Speaker 2And then we were just standing we like we brought the bed, like the mattress and stuff into the walking closet and we slept in there.
And it was now in hindsight, I was like, oh, but.
Speaker 5Did you think about calling the police?
Speaker 6Uh?
Speaker 2Nah, because I thought that's going to be an overreaction and I thought, imagine what the boys would say if they found out I rang the police.
Speaker 4And it was also like COVID bubble time too.
Speaker 5Yeah, well you're not meant to be out.
Speaker 2Imagine I wasn't actually supposed to leave the hub, but I remember I said to the COVID like I explained that she was there on her own and like it was a half an hour driveway, and they said, i'd.
Speaker 5Just like you and you're in Queensland.
So there wasn't actually that.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was a bit looser there.
So technically I was I wasn't allowed to leave in the NRL rules, but in the law I was fined alone.
So I just you, guys, I'm a bit of a rebel and ship ima.
Speaker 1If you're in the cabin you in the cabin heat and the invader comes in open the cabin and go, oh god, you beat me to it, guys, that's where I was going to hide.
Speaker 6And I'll ert you guys, alarm you, guys.
Jack.
Speaker 2At what point, at what point did you when you were saying that, did you realize this.
Speaker 5Is going nowhere?
Speaker 6Nowhere where no one laughed.
Speaker 4For me?
Too many scary experiences I did.
Speaker 2I did.
Speaker 4We went to the Easter Show a few years back, a number of years back, and did that Remember that Hollywood Horrors coupe, the Haunted walk through House.
They do it now, so they do it a few places now, But it is and it's just like all the horror franchise people in there just getting ready to jump scale all the time, and the anticipation of them being in there, like no matter how prepared you are, like it's so dark, and they just like they don't hold back, like they come at you like they're going to attack you.
Speaker 2Yeah, there's at the end, there's like a bloke with a chainsaw and the chains taken out so if it hits you, like it's blunt, but he comes hard at you and chases.
Speaker 4Be like six six to it's.
Speaker 2Leather Face from Texas Chainsaw mass and he chases you and if you because I did the ones in when I was in America a couple years ago.
I was there in October and at Universal Studios at night they do it at seven pm when the son goes down.
They do all these horror houses.
So there's a Chucky one, there's a Chainsaw Massacre one.
There's all these themed houses.
There was like a Stranger Things was big at the time, that TV series, So there's a Stranger Things house and that was frightening, like I remember at once like I was actually fine.
They kind of let people one like go in at a time in their groups where they hold people.
So there's a large distance between you and I found myself in the Chucky House running to get closer to the people in front of me.
So I would like not be the one that got scared.
Speaker 3Well, Couid, do you remember the walkthrough that you and I did in the Haunted House in Universal in La Yeah, and I froze, I couldn't walk any further.
Speaker 2You're we yourself now?
Speaker 5Why didn't we myself?
Speaker 3And when I told one of my girlfriends, she said, oh my god, sh I've been in at Its terrifying as she had wet herself.
Speaker 6Yeah, and she always won.
Speaker 2She stopped.
Speaker 4I couldn't and they had to.
Speaker 2They basically stopped the house.
She was screaming.
She was like, oh, and then the guy who like who popped out the scare.
I hit a mask on her.
He ended up taking the mask off and like just like didn't know what to do and then had to walk mum to the emergency exit.
Speaker 5I did I just throw I froze a killer with a content.
I couldn't leave my feet.
Speaker 6He was like the screamer.
Speaker 2Yeah, he was like, you know what's fake?
Speaker 5But you know you're right, Jack.
It's the anticipation, yes, because you know the worst bit of fear.
Speaker 4It's like you know they're coming at you, but you don't know like what level they're coming at you.
You don't know, like and it's all misty in there.
And then you got like that adrenaline because if one gets you at like compounds because you start sort of moving a bit quicker, then you start running and by the end, once old mate with the chainsaw comes out, you honestly you are sprinting out of there.
Speaker 1Yeah, do you think about it.
The brain would take a certain amount of time to adjust.
The brain I think in your natural instinct would be to think it's exactly that, it's a serious situation.
Speaker 2Yeah, and you're adrenaline first that first second when someone pops out of you like where you don't your brain reacts before you actually consciously know it's fake.
So there is that second of jump scare, but obviously you know going through you're not going to get hurt.
But it doesn't stop you from having that massive It's like in a movie when you're in a movie and body Jason pops out of the closet and he's got a machete.
Yeah, and he's got one of them.
You still you still get scared.
Speaker 1I was thirty and I've got dragged out of the ghost train, but not is this your no, no, no, A seriously scary, scary one that I don't ever told you it's about.
Speaker 6I was just sitting there and I thought, what's the situation.
I can't believe I've been told you this story?
Speaker 5Got a story we haven't heard, guys.
Speaker 1I don't think, well you've heard bits of it.
But in ninety four we were away in our interview trip to Darwin anyway.
You know, it's like when you interview trip.
We get about seven or eight days.
What else can we do rather than just sit around the pool and drink?
So we said, right, we hopped in the car.
Speaker 6It was like you know what those buggy type cars, and you know, we hopped and we drove.
We just started driving it.
Anyway, there was.
Speaker 1Myself, Adam Muir, Steve Crowe and Billy Pedon.
Right, So we're cruise and next but we find ourselves about forty minutes outside of Darwin in this.
Speaker 6Sort of rural country area or farmland around.
Speaker 1So we looked there and there's a pub, just small pub there.
I said, okay, let let's call in.
So we walk in.
Anyway, there's two or three people there, and one of the blokes at the bar is fucking massive, like massive, like you know, really big thick set farmer like you six to three the rally thick set.
So we get there anyway, he's sitting in the bar and he's drinking away and he starts talking to the guy behind the bar and sort of laughing at us.
We're playing pool and crow.
He's got roof sandals on and he's going fucking what are they?
Next minute, he didn't like his sandals.
Speaker 6You just didn't like us, like it was literally like a cowboy.
Speaker 5How was it?
Speaker 6I don't know, but but it's like, you know, strangers arrived, be in the forties.
Next minute, another.
Speaker 1Bloke arrived, another bloke arrived, all these mass, massive blakes, and they're all standing around, and it just dawned on us.
Mate, they're going to fucking they're going to flog us here.
Speaker 6This is going to happen.
Speaker 1So we we're knocking around.
I said, boys, as soon as they take their eyes off a little bit, let's just fucking scarlets.
We can't say anyway, we get there, we're all sitting there.
We look over and they start chatting on these we just got bang.
Speaker 6We're helping the car.
We take off.
They take off after us.
Speaker 2Oh, they followed it.
Speaker 6They followed us.
Speaker 1So we're hooting down the road.
They're flying, they're flying behigh us after about probably five six minutes and up just turning around, probably.
Speaker 6Getting too close to civilization.
Civilization.
Speaker 1As we're about you know, Nelly backing, Darwin, Billy goes, fuck, I've left my wallop back that I don't care.
It was almost like that sideways soon you know, anyway.
Speaker 5You didn't go back.
Speaker 6We did.
Speaker 1So we got to go back because he's like, mate, they'll know where I live and they'll not.
So he said, I said where was it, mate?
I put it just the side of the bill table.
Speaker 6Fuck.
Speaker 1Okay, So all that was scary, but this next bit is the scariest.
We drove right out to the side of the pub really quietly, bang and waited, and Billy just ran in, grabbed it, ran out.
They followed us again just about the same amount of time, but once again turned and spun and went back.
Speaker 6That whole experience was so scary.
Speaker 3The only thing that could have made that worse is if you'd run out of fuel, and knowing you at that time, you could have possibly.
Speaker 4In fairness, though Scrowey was wearing sandals.
Speaker 2I was going to say, if there's ever excuse to be flogged in Darwin by a bunch of country farmers, it's because he had reef sandals on.
What was he thinking?
Speaker 6Mate?
What actually later on we found out was v who was standing there.
Speaker 2So it was it literally was a crime to fashion.
Maybe they came to a rest crow.
Speaker 1I mean for us, they are a darling pair of sandals, crime against fashion?
Speaker 2And what was the sarci doing in country Darwin?
Speaker 4Yeah, he read his best beer, best beer in the world, taps clear as the whistle.
Speaker 5So, guys, what is your greatest fear?
So you told us about you phobias, anything, What you are most afraid of?
Speaker 4On spiders?
You know?
Yeah, everyone knows that.
Speaker 6Yeah.
Speaker 4I can't even watch the freaking Harry Potter scene with those giant spiders.
Speaker 2Jack eased to and remember a couple of fears coind of mind for Jackie the spiders because whenever we'd play footy in the front yard and the ball would go into the garden when we were growing up, Jack wouldn't refuse to get it.
We just refuse to go into a bush.
I don't reckon you went into a bush until you were seventeen.
Speaker 4There's a joke here, I don't know how to execute it.
Speaker 6Don't say it.
It's a family pot cast.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, and then you remember yet you're so used to have a fear of knives.
Speaker 4No, no, I think I sort of agree out of it.
But I wasn't a fear of knives.
I don't like I didn't like it.
My mates always us to address it.
I didn't like sharp objects like dead in between my eyes, like coming at me in between my which I think is barely anyway.
Speaker 2So if you like, if you pointed a knife for Jack like that, like you're almost you were pointing a Harry Potter wand at him, he would like his eyes would like close.
Speaker 4And it was weird, like I reckon.
I'd get like a little six cents like I reckon, you know how copper yet really weird about your neck touching neck.
I used to get like this sixth sense, like I reckon.
I was shot between the eyes.
Speaker 6In a past life, right, let's hope not with a.
Speaker 2Nail gouing mine's heights.
I would say probably I never used to be, but I've gradually gotten more.
Like I remember I was on the Empire State building.
I can't I couldn't go to the edge.
I was getting what do you call it, like verdigo, and I lose my legs and I like fell over.
Yeah, I remember I fell down the stairs at this nightclub one night because I looked over the edge and we were like six stories up and I was well hydrated, but I got vertigo and fell and I slid down the stairs like two flights, Like I just really slowly, Like I wasn't hurt, but I was just like froze up.
Speaker 6It is.
Speaker 1It is terrifying sometimes when you're Sometimes you get up on those massive buildings and like you might throw a bit of paper off and you for a second take the feeling of the paper going.
Speaker 6That always makes me almost be sick.
Speaker 2You know what scares what really scares me is when you're on like a you're trying to get a picture of a view and you sort of put your phone out to a level where if you drop it, you know it's gone.
Oh that is I reckon.
Between that and fear of letting my friends and family down, they're probably my two fears.
Speaker 6I mean, wow, you're just redeem yourself.
Speaker 2Failure as well.
Fear of failure is probably.
Speaker 4The biggest one.
Speaker 5I do have that innately.
Speaker 1But my great fear would be being locked into a small room room with the giant python just watching.
You know, those python's got a massive head so it could literally bite you.
Speaker 5And then about a big room.
Speaker 1Look, guys, I just said, plus fa you'll be a big room.
Speaker 6Small rooms.
The thing is, it's.
Speaker 5Okay, do you want to know?
Speaker 2Because they used to get you like this.
The snakes gag on you.
It's been run into the ground, hasn't it scares?
Speaker 1Was they got me a triple amb and sidy?
But side show who does a lot of the promos, and he is terrific blake, he said made Can you come into the recording booth?
We just could lay down this ad.
Yeah, he's another booth and he's talking to me through the and I go, Yeah.
As I'm there, I just get this feeling I'm being set up.
As I turn around, MG has got this like sack and just goes in a little recording booth just throws a snake in there, a decent sized sake.
Speaker 2What do you think?
What do you think the fear of it comes from?
Speaker 3Is it being bitten?
Is it the feeling of them?
Because they feel incredible?
Speaker 5What the first time I felt that?
Wow, they are incredible.
They feel amazing.
Speaker 6Yeah, I don't know where it comes from.
Speaker 4I've never heard someone refer to them as feeling amazing.
Speaker 2They do.
But when you feel the scales of a snake, they are amazing.
When you touch a dolphin, that's a great feeling.
Have you ever touched.
They ever bought a hot dog and don't put sauce on it, and you touch the wet Frankfort, that's the feeling of a dolphin.
Wet Frankfort is a dolphin.
Speaker 1That that what you just said is very seriical like it is.
Speaker 2But I'm saying like, that's the I heard someone say it the other day, Like when you describe an analogy between two feelings, the closest thing to a dolphin is a wet Frankfurt.
Speaker 5Do you mean you cook Frankfurt?
Speaker 1Maybe you're onto something because the traditional thought is that hot dogs basically are full of mouths and assholes.
Speaker 6Maybe there's some dolphin.
Speaker 3No, let's just clarify or the children at home.
No no, no, no, no, no, frankfurts are not dolphins.
Speaker 2No no, no, sorry.
But the meat that they use for frankfurts, it's like the left over me.
Speaker 6I don't think it's a dog.
Speaker 3Does anyone care about what my greatest fear is?
Speaker 5My greatest fear is being alone.
So look, I'm just I'm.
Speaker 3Just safer, like I feel safety with some So even if I'm in a dangerous situation.
Speaker 2You don't mean like alone in life?
Speaker 3You know, not alone in life, just alone, Like if it's the end of the world, being the last person, I'd like it.
Like if we're in danger, whether it's in the ocean, on a boat, you know, being chased or attacked or whatever, on the.
Speaker 5With someone else, I find solace in that.
Speaker 4What's your thoughts?
And I am legendary?
W that be a horrible situation for you.
Well he had the dog at least, so dogs count.
Speaker 5Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, but.
Speaker 2That was a German shepherd.
Speaker 6It was.
That was a horrible scene.
Speaker 1I can't watch that movie for the thought of that scene coming or it just happened.
Speaker 5Oh yeah, any animals?
Speaker 1I mean, are we going to do impersonation?
I mean we're on this, yeah, impersonation of our favorite movie line.
Speaker 5Okay, what one are you drinking?
Yeah, you go first, let us we can get you.
Speaker 4Try to pick with this if you're just going to do d again again?
Speaker 3Ok No, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 6Mick Taylor Wolf Creek.
That is terrifying.
Speaker 1Where you get those young English backpackers and never one od a fuel.
They're sitting around the campfire.
He's giving them a drink, something to eat, and all of a sudden, they're going, oh, this guy is pretty good.
It's a little strange, and then one of the then then the young guy just says something and Mick Taylor goes.
Speaker 2And they go, oh, ye wolf cree, why one would be And I'm having I'll have to let you go because I'm having an old friend for lunch.
Speaker 4With some father beans and.
Speaker 5A red did an Italian red?
Speaker 2Is it like a heavier than a peanut?
Speaker 5No, it's quite light.
Speaker 2Oh good, delicious, And I wonder he wanted to have.
Speaker 6Just wonderfully.
Speaker 2I'm not much of a lunch red guy.
I know Hannibal is a sick man, so I wouldn't compare myself to But I would rather have a County Kyanti for dinner.
I'm more of a dinner red with a pasta.
Speaker 5Yeah, you're true.
I mean traditionally go to the pasta, the heavy of food, the meat, the meat.
Speaker 4Okay, thanks, Oh yeah, I'll go on here.
You're ready?
Three to one Michael Myers, Yes, silent, deadly.
You could feel it through the like.
Speaker 5Yes, I didn't get that because he doesn't talk.
Speaker 2Just took the easiest possible rout he could.
Speaker 6That's suddenly of it.
Speaker 5Okay, I guess mine.
They're here.
Speaker 6It's here's Johnny.
Oh no, it's sixth sense.
Speaker 2No, said again, they're here.
Speaker 5There here that Yeah, that's the little.
Speaker 4Girls in front of the TV.
Speaker 5Yeah, it goes right, and here's Johnny.

How good.
Speaker 5I'll go a few other I see dead People.
Speaker 2Sixth Sense not a scary movie.
Speaker 5Be afraid, be very afraid.
Speaker 2That's very broad shorts, sneaker.
Speaker 5That's the fly.
You guys probably wouldn't have even seen it.
The power of Christ compelled you.
Speaker 4Sorry to our listeners out there, blew my headphones off.
Speaker 5Did you get that one?
Speaker 1Exorsus, Yes, yes, Gold silver brons for Greatest Film Fame of Vinyl, Gold Silver Bronze, Greatest Horror Characters.
Speaker 3Okay, I've gone penny Wise, the clown.
Speaker 2Penny Wise, Jackie the doll.
Oh yeah, you reckon, he's the greatest.
Speaker 5No, no, no, they're just my top best carriage.
Speaker 3I don't like dolls and clowns that are evil because they're children, like they're representative of children.
So I find that quite disturbing and My number one is Hannibal Elector.
Speaker 2All right.
My bronze was Freddy Krueger.
I think any man that enters dreams is very frightening because you can't control it.
And one thing you can't do is you know what I mean, Jason, and that you just don't go down to the creek where he lives.
Absolutely Freddy Krueger.
Everyone's got to sleep because if you don't sleep from I think it's five days die something like that.
Speaker 1If I'm going to go into a I'm going into a horror movie set number one, I'm going to lose some weight.
Speaker 6Number two, I'm going to keep my mouth shut because it's always the fat, the fat, loud mouth.
Speaker 2Always always all the blonde woman.
They always kill the blonde, good looking woman at it's always the hero always Silver for me was Hannibal Lecter gold our Man, Buffalo Bill.
I think that is what a sinister man.
Speaker 6Jame Gum.
Speaker 2Yeah, any man that cuts skin off and skin sticks to himself, that's a sick.
Speaker 5Yeah doodle between his legs.
Speaker 1And I am thinking we're in a human skin suit to Sarah's wedding, so anyway.
Speaker 2Yeah, we're going to get actually, yeah, go through your list first, I want to bring that up with you.
Speaker 4I've gone with my bronze.
Sorry, my bronze is Hannibal Lecter.
I love him.
He is the greatest.
Number two, I've gone with Frankenstein.
I just think Frankenstein's there's a movie, but I think he's just a guy.
Actually, some one of the first books I actually ever read, front of the front to end was Frankenstein, the Old School one picture book.
Maybe my number one is, of course The Great Count Dracula, Countain Victor Anthony Minicello.
Speaker 2Take about there.
Speaker 6It is Dad, Yours, Lady and Paler.
I've gone bronze.
Speaker 1Freddy Krueger Coop, you know, interviewed him on Triple and on the character who played Freddy Krueger, and I said to him, did you feel do you feel like you're playing that Freddy Krueger?
Speaker 4Ol?
Speaker 1Did it type cast you?
And he paused and went, no, I've been in heaps of good movies.
Speaker 6Yeah.
My number two was the Shark in Jaws.
Speaker 1The Shark, yeah, brilliantly done by Stielberg.
And the fact that originally they're going to show the shark in the first scene, and then because there was technical difficulties just held off.
He actually made the movie.
Not knowing what the shark looked like, made the shark so much scare out.
My number one is Mick Taylor of Wolf Creek, who made as a hybrid with Ivan Mallatt in mind, and also Bradley Murdoch, who was the Peter Falconio murder they're saying, and which the reason was that was delayed That movie Wolf Creek wasn't showed for about three or four months after in Bothy Territory.
Speaker 2Oh really yeah, is that where he was most prominent.
Speaker 1Yes, yeah, that's Bradley Murdoch.
And can I give you one more story in that a little bit chilling?
Speaker 6Just go.
Speaker 1When we did The Final Winner with Johnny Jarrett, who played Mick Taylor, he said to me names now, boys, when you do a character, no matter how small it is, you need to write at least twenty pages on the backstory of that character so you know him inside out.
And I said, okay, what was the backstory on Mick Taylor?
And he said a few things.
He goes, mate, but I'll give you the thing that turned him.
He went to the pub one day and he was having a beer.
He was having a beer with a mate and he said it just started to become popular in the area for people going down for the Opal mining.
And his mate went, what about all these pome tourists Phoenix and someone should shoot them because that's you know yeah, And Mick.
Speaker 6Taylor went, you know what someone should ah So that he wrote.
Speaker 5That as personal story for his character that he was playing.
Speaker 2Yes, Wow, that's pretty creative.
That is because I remember I've got infatuated when I was younger with lots of different things.
The Illuminati was one of them.
Remember how interested I was in the Illuminati when I was younger.
Yeah, conspiracy theory.
Still, I fell in love like with how Heath Ledger became the Joker, and like the idea of how he locked himself in the hotel room as the Joker and kept a diary.
There's actually pictures on mine of like some of the stuff he used to write down.
He's just to write down like kill, kill, Kill, like thousands of times over and over in a diary.
And I think ultimately it sort of led to a lot of issues going in after.
But I find that real method acting quite such an interesting thing.
Speaker 1And Christian Bale fell out on the movie because because he's I mean, Christian Bale is a method actor, but he's Ledger refused to get out of character with the Joker.
And apparently once they're having lunch on the set and Christian and Christian Bale was sitting there talking to some of the crew and he's led You just sat to the side just as the Joker just laughing at him, and he kept going, stop it, man, stop it, and.
Speaker 6We'll do it.
They end up getting in to a fight.
Christian Bale like threw him, threw him over.
Speaker 1A couple of tables and stuff like that.
You just got up and kept laughing.
They said it was terrifying on set.
Speaker 4How I feel like that might have been caught on camera?
And Cobb, I don't know if isn't that part of the scene.
Speaker 5It's exactly part of the I've seen it.
Speaker 6It's legitimate.
Speaker 2Well that's pretty crazy.
Speaker 5Maybe they added it after the thought.
Do you have a quiz?
Speaker 2I got a little quiz when I tease out.
Yeah, and I'll ask everyone one favor.
Right, let me do this.
Let's lift the energy levels are because remember what I said to you last night?
Speaker 5Yes, remember what we got a chatter we got chatted.
Speaker 2What did I say?
Speaker 3You said, If you guys don't bring this level of energy to the pot tomorrow, I'm going to be really pissed off.
Speaker 2I've never seen how like Dad and you be, and even Jack to an extent, be so funny and energetic.
And I said, let's get this energy in the party tomorrow.
And then Dad method act to Dama, and now he's You've literally had the energy of Dama this whole podcast.
You've been looking every time I look across you make this weird eye contact with me, and I'm like, what the hell are you looking at?
Speaker 4In fairness, he's looking over you normal.
Speaker 2Yeah, sure, A good point.
Okay, So I'm going to give you a character you can all try to guess.
This is how many victims.
These are fictional characters for the kids out there.

Actually talk about that on mine Hunters.
If anyone recommendation anyone that's actually on Netflix.
It's still there.
There's only two seasons of it, but it's been people are calling for it to come back.
It follows like the FBI opening there, Like they're part of the section of the FBI that you know does like works on serial killers and I'm like the psychology of them and stuff like that, and they go and sort of stuff.
They go and interview them and like it's just a series about the interview process, and my god, it's a good series.
Speaker 5They talk about like what's it called again, Mine Hunter.
Speaker 4Mine Hunters.
So give that a go for listeners watchers.
Very like gold Hunters on it's like Copal Hunters.
Yeah, accept as people and lots of dead livers.

If you have a story where you've actually been assaulted by someone taking the ride, or you know someone come to watch because they're freaked out because I reckon, you'd come across so many people.
Yeah, people are their egos hit or like people that just out of fear would like strike them and stuff like that.
