This is the gift for every Christmas friend that you want.

And lover. I think

there's a lot of people that have Christmas lovers

specific to during this time where they

abandon their families and make love to their Christmas lover.

That's how we've always done it in my Sicilian household.

We break up the family for a couple of days. We go to our individual lovers house yeah Christmas the same lovers every year um we try to keep it

the same lovers but sometimes certain lovers yeah

they they are often dying that's crazy yeah it's a it's a high are you betting pensioners old people or

we try to select people

the family the family comes together and discuss

yeah we try to select people

who we think probably have a year or two left in them, not necessarily

because of age,

sometimes just because of lifestyle.

We have a talk

because of diet sometimes, Broden. So you're with your Christmas lover.

Well, you might move on, Mark. Who may be on the brink of death

and you want to give them something special other than your

body. But

why are you saying all this? I can't do not know. I can't remember.

We're announcing, this is the official announcement of our new tour. Our new tour.

I'm sucking on a yog during this announcement.

Yeah, great. I hope that's not putting anyone off.

Here's all the information, Zach, that I've told them so far. So I don't know what you've been told by Auntie Don and what you need to run through here, but I'll tell you now.

Just shut the fuck up about the yog. It's a good yog.
I just want to apologise for being late late to all the listeners.

I don't want my tartiness to reflect my passion for this project and this announcement. And I don't want this podcast to reflect the tartiness of his yogurt.
Is it a tart yogurt?

Yeah, there's a sourness to it that's really

that I know that my particular Christmas lover this year is going to really enjoy.

And we've also found out that Mark every year, he has his lovers, he has his partners, but at Christmas time will bed someone who is in the last, is in the twilight of their life.

The family does though, so it's the christmas lover season um beautiful yeah here's what we've told them so far is the show is called drem it's the best show we've ever made it's officially um being made well you know it's being announced tickets on the tickets on sale now great christmas present we are tomorrow's episode will be we'll be back to regular scheduling tomorrow 3 aw

Get on the list.

Get on the

mailing list. You can check that out at auntydonna.com, I believe.
You can subscribe to that. Do we have that? Do we have that? I don't know.
I don't know.

I don't know.

Auntie Donna.com. There'll be a link somewhere

for you to get on that mailing list. You've got to have to do a little bit of digging.
It'll be on Hardly Double. It'll be on Harley Double.

Maybe we have a website. And maybe we'll do

a different landing page. Yeah.
Yeah.

Now, what do people need to?

Can you do something? We'll go around and just say something that'll hype people and make them book this Chrissy ticket idea. You know, tickets to this show is a Chrissy idea.

Starting with

Chris Muss. Christmas.

Let's start with Zach. Before I do go into that, I did have one quick question.
Did you hear what he said? He said Zach, but he pointed at me. And there's video evidence to prove that.
Well,

I don't know. This is a small podcast.
I don't think we'll be releasing that.

You go first, Broden.

All right. Well.

Oh, I see what you did there. I was pointing to Zach.
Oh, I see, but you said Broden. Exactly.
Exactly. So don't we see that? I think language takes primacy over physical action.

oh bro oh bro bro resorted to violence and proving that in fact well sometimes yeah if jake paul tweeted you and went

let's get in the ring yeah would i say 10 million dollar contract yeah i would fight 10 million bonus if you win you'd die though yeah

no

not because they're fake fights yeah yeah yeah

he doesn't want me to die all right

he you know he could have killed that's what the grap the grapples are the When they get into a grapple, they check in. Hey, are you doing all right, man?

Pull back a little.

Okay.

Before we start, Mark, you wanted to say something?

Do you think people who build sheds for living and also fight other people one-on-one ever get confused when their partners ask them about what their schedule is?

Say that again, Mark.

That's why you delayed us talking about the live show. My schedule, Like, what is your schedule? Jesus, Mark.

Say that again, brother. People who build

shooting a nerf gun at the wall. Why? Because it was there.
Let's go around. Destructive behavior.
Zach, what's something that we

I don't know, just say something about something. Piss.

Something that I wee is piss.

Okay, great. Zach? Something you we?

I would love to talk about the show, if I may. Okay, sure.
And then something about what you we. What I'll say is it's an original show.
Yes. Brand new, which I'm sure you've covered.

No, I didn't actually cover it. We might slip in.
We always end up chucking in a few fan favourites, but we'll see.

I'll also say

in

some territories selling less tickets than we sold last tour, just in terms of routing and that sort of thing. Some more, some less.

And we are, it is a strictly limited

strictly limited tour. So there are maybe a few cities here and there where we could maybe add one or two, but broadly speaking, it's a very,

getting into the specifics, it's a very tightly routed or routed tour

with a lack of ability to add shows in most cities.

So if you miss out, you will miss out. And this will be the last time we're touring because

internally, we are falling apart. Absolutely.
And something you we?

Something I we

got to be we sports.

Nice.

Mine is also.

Mark, something about the show and then something you we. Also blood sometimes.
Well, you say that after you. Oh, right, yeah.
Something about the show. Something about the show.

You know,

it's going to be live. It's going to be loud.

And we're going to be...

We tour with a sound person, so it will be as loud as we wish. Yes.
Yes.

Also, beautiful VIP tickets, like we did last tour. And you want to get a little chance to touch us.
With the VIP tickets, you get a chance to just touch us.

Not wherever you want. You're the least coverage.
Touching zone. You're going to have to have people touching you.
And now you're encouraging it. There are touch zones that we're introducing.

I haven't told you boys about this.

Oh, anyway. For the VIP crowd, they get to line up, walk up on stage, and then each of us have a different touch zone.
And your we? And my we is, yeah, blood on a bad day.

My turn? Your turn. What's something you're looking forward to

in the show? And

what are you we?

I think that,

and this can be the clip, Nick.

I think that when we,

we've done a lot of, people mainly know us from our video stuff, or people might just listen to this podcast.

But the one thing we've worked on and built more than anything we've ever done is our live shows. It's the first thing we ever wrote together.

We've made how many? One, two,

three, four, five. We've made a fuck ton of live shows and hours and spent more time working on them than anything else.
And I think, in my opinion, it's the thing that we do best.

And often what people say to us is it's a completely different thing what we do on stage. For a lot of people who perform on stage, it's a representation of what they've done on screen.

But for us, it's almost the opposite.

Some people tour their books and get interviewed by someone, but we build these shows these are what we do best yeah and so uh you know we're going to be releasing uh a live special next year so if you can't come to this I recommend you look at that I can't talk about that just yet but I will say that this is what we do best and if you want us and I think I'm most proud of as as a member of Don it's the thing I'm most proud of doing so I'm very excited to be doing this again in 2025.

Yes I am yes can I how good's that for a clip can I give you a retort though yeah okay go against that yep so you just said it's the thing we've done most more than anything in our lives. How many

shows do you think we've done? Let's go through. I'm not talking about the show overall.
I'm talking how many times have we gotten on stage, performed for an hour? I can do this very quickly.

So, the first show we ever did was called

Auntie Donna in Cancer. Second one was called Auntie Donna and the Facts Machine and Murder Mysteries.
The third one was called Auntie Donna, World's Greatest Showbag.

Fourth one was called Auntie Donna, Auntie Donna,

fifth one was called Auntie Donna New Show. Bad name.

Next one was called Big Boys. Next one was called Glenridge Secondary College.
Next one was called

Magical Dead Cat. And this one is called Dream.
So we've made nine hours. No, well, but I'm not talking about how many have you made.

I'm talking about, because I really want to give you the benefit of the doubt here. I want to give you the strongest argument, right? Yeah, yeah.

Because you've made this argument that we've done this more than anything else. How many, just a rough guess, how many times do you think we've performed all of those shows all up?

It has to be close to a thousand. Yeah.

has to be close to one thousand one thousand how many times have you weed oh more than that yeah nearly every day more than every day yeah so well yeah once you would

for

36 years once a month

yeah

how often do you you only piss once a month yeah

yeah i wait till my bladder feels like it's going to burst. I hold it and I hold it and I hold it.

Pardon? That's a month? Yeah, on the 15th of every month. How often do you drink water?

Once or twice a quarter.

Jesus. And I drink like a big

alt havoc and so much water that like I feel it makes me sick. Wait a minute.

I'm having a Kaiser Sosay moment.

Wow, I don't know. All these dots are joining in my head.

Remember how Mark talks about how his parents spit everywhere and were originally from the Middle East and came over here in the 1800s and now they're wild in the desert? Right.

And you know how Mark is a camel? Yeah.

Mark is a camel. Mark's a camel.
That's right, boys. And that's actually the big announcement.
We're not going on tour. No, we don't have a new show because we can't travel with a camel.
Yeah.

Yeah, and that's how we found out. We found out because Mark,

we had to get a visa for one of the countries we were going to in order to perform over there.

Mark's a camel. And Tom,

the guy that's like our tour manager, was just like,

and you're all humans, yeah?

Oh,

yep, yep, yep. And I just hung at the back and just

let things play out.

It was in that conversation where I said, wait a second. Mark's got a big hump on his back.
Two.

Two big humps on his back.

I raced him in the northern Queensland. Yeah.
He looks like a camel. Yeah.

He says I'm the camel quite often.

He doesn't say anything. He just goes.

He loves yogurt. Loves his sucker.
There's it.

Yeah. And that's today's episode.
So tomorrow we'll be back with the Christmas.

We return to our

regular scheduling.

We'll reserve to our regular kedging.

So

don't worry, everyone thinking, what's this app about? Tomorrow we resume to our regular cadre. This episode was called Important News, but it's still funny, I promise.

If you're Mark.

And I just want to say

while Mark won't be performing in the New Zealand, UK, Ireland, US, and Canada shows, we will be bringing in a camel for each of those. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
