G'day, listeners. Welcome to Bar Karate, The Sailing Podcast. My name is Jordan Spencer. It's that time of the week where I get to hang out with some really cool sailors. But of course, I have to share the mic with all my idiot mates. So first off, let's welcome Mr. Brett Perry.

SPEAKER_2 (0:45)

Greetings, Exalted One.

Jordan Spencer (0:46)

How are you, Brett?

Bret Perry (0:48)

G'day, mate. How are you going? Hey, big weekend in sport. Huge, huge. One would think there's actually a game on, but it's not that. It's the three of us, including you, Jordan, that adds up to four, are together for the first time in a long time.

Jordan Spencer (1:00)

I thought we were going to play.

Stacey Jackson (1:01)

He's giving it away.

SPEAKER_2 (1:02)

He's giving it away.

Jordan Spencer (1:05)

I thought we were going for your daughter's best and fairest win there, mate. I thought that's what was coming.

Bret Perry (1:09)

Well, there's that. There's that. There's the Wallabies last night, which we've got to talk about. This is going to be a sports show. It's not going to be a sailing podcast today.

Of course, The Great Race, but anyway.

Jordan Spencer (1:22)

Oh, The Great Race. Of course, Bathurst. I should put that on the background.

Nick Bice (1:26)

You're stealing all my lines here. Come on, guys.

Jordan Spencer (1:30)

Hang on. Let me clear the cobwebs off this button. Here you go.

Bret Perry (1:33)

Push the button.

Nick Bice (1:36)

He had a voice that could make a Wolverine purr.

Jordan Spencer (1:39)

Mr. Nick Boyce.

Nick Bice (1:41)

Yes. Well, does this podcast still exist? Cleaning the cobwebs off. That's not what you said before. What was what did you say before? Lube the button.

Bret Perry (1:54)

Lube the button.

Jordan Spencer (1:57)

Yes, I had to lube your button.

Nick Bice (2:00)

Happy birthday, Jordan. It feels as if I've missed about two of them.

Bret Perry (2:06)

Has he aged much since you've been away?

Nick Bice (2:08)

Oh, no, he's like Benjamin Button. He's coming down in age, I think. He's just reducing age, getting closer to us day by day.

Bret Perry (2:15)

I do notice he's had to stop shaving.

Nick Bice (2:18)

Yeah. Old man whiskers.

So I see a pimple coming through.

Bret Perry (2:25)

Is his voice going squeaky?

Stacey Jackson (2:26)

We're going, oh, it's just...

SPEAKER_2 (2:30)

His voice is going back up high.

Nick Bice (2:32)

No, honestly, happy birthday, Jordan.

Jordan Spencer (2:35)

Oh, thanks.

Nick Bice (2:36)

Thank you. I feel as though... I remember you're 50th, actually.

And I feel as though we've been talking about doing this since about then, the podcast.

Bret Perry (2:47)

What?

Jordan Spencer (2:48)

Doing what?

Nick Bice (2:49)

Not the podcast as such.

Bret Perry (2:53)

You know what I mean?

Nick Bice (2:54)

So, but no fond memories over the last 10 years of ocean racing, races, Bar Karate and various mischievous behaviour along the way.

Jordan Spencer (3:07)

Yeah.

Nick Bice (3:08)

So, congratulations.

Jordan Spencer (3:09)

Yeah.

Nick Bice (3:10)

Well, cool.

Yep. Sorry. So, should bring in the other one.

Jordan Spencer (3:14)

No, I was just going to raise the standard. That's all.

Nick Bice (3:16)

Yeah. There we go.

SPEAKER_2 (3:18)

You guys know how it's hard to be friends with me because I'm so awesome.

Jordan Spencer (3:22)

Stacey Jackson.

Stacey Jackson (3:25)

You mentioned this is going to be a sports chat today, but you know sailing is sport, right?

Bret Perry (3:31)

Oh, is it?

Stacey Jackson (3:33)

Sometimes. Yeah.

Bret Perry (3:35)

You could put it in that category.

Stacey Jackson (3:37)

Yeah.

Jordan Spencer (3:38)

I love it.

Stacey Jackson (3:39)

Yeah.

Jordan Spencer (3:39)

I love it.

Bret Perry (3:40)

But Stacey said, it's been an interesting morning for you so far. You've woken up and got out of bed, and you've just copped the off-air challenge.

Stacey Jackson (3:50)

Yeah. It's good to have all four of us here. Put it that way.

Jordan Spencer (3:55)

Is it?

Nick Bice (3:57)

Well, I'm pretty sure you weren't thinking that when you just jumped on the co and BP, you were an iron full swing. Lucky it's the morning time, actually.

Jordan Spencer (4:06)

Very early in the morning.

Bret Perry (4:08)

You know how we used to say, we wanted to always record off-air. If we recorded this morning, that would be prime, prime, absolute gold.
