Welcome to the Tony and Ryan podcast. My name is Ryan. This
0:02
is Dr. Author Tony Lodge. Now, if your
0:04
name was Lizzie
0:06
Pellegrini, would
0:08
you prefer to be called Lizzie Pellegrini
0:11
because I just feel it looks
0:13
like Pellegrini on the page as
0:16
I read it. So I'm torn
0:18
because Natalie Brullier, because instantly I
0:20
thought of Pellegrino, the water, but
0:22
Pellegrini's the Italian place on Burke
0:24
street in Melbourne. I thought that
0:26
was the same thing, but you're right. And I don't know,
0:28
it's not the same. No, otherwise I'd be Tono or
0:31
tiny, which
0:35
actually does check out. She's a tiny girl.
0:37
Yeah. I'm so small. Who said that?
0:39
Yeah. I know you can't even see me because I turned to the side. Oh, you're
0:41
on the side. I'm so small. Let's
0:45
call Lizzie Pellegrini. Lizzie Pellegrini.
0:48
Heart for Connecticut. Jizzee Lizzie. No.
0:51
Oh, sorry. Maybe we should
0:53
meet Lizzie before we call her Jizzee Lizzie.
0:56
Yeah. I reckon that's a fair call. Hello. Lizzie.
1:03
We were just deciding whether we were going to
1:05
rename you Pellegrini or what was
1:07
that one? Jizzee Lizzie. Jizzee Lizzie. Did you
1:09
have a preference? Honestly, out
1:11
of those, I think I
1:13
prefer Pellegrini, but that's also not
1:15
my name. I
1:18
said it looks like Pellegrini. Take another
1:20
look at it. How many L's are
1:22
in my last name? Zero. It's
1:25
zero. Ryan, what the... You fucking... I need
1:28
to start seeing these names. You can't be
1:30
trusted. What is it? Lizzie, how do you...
1:32
No, no, no. What's your version? You try
1:34
it again. Now that you've looked at it
1:36
and you realize there's no L's, you have
1:39
another go, Ryan. Lizzie...
1:42
Peregrine. Oh. Yeah.
1:46
That was right, wasn't it? Peregrine?
1:49
How did you get Pellegrini out of Peregrine? There's
1:51
a P and a G. And
1:53
that's all I needed. Lizzie, like
1:56
I, is an adoptee. Oh,
1:58
wow. My hair... What?
4:01
Coming up today, I'll let you know what had
4:03
happened. And they go, you're going to have a
4:05
huge relief. They
4:08
got a toilet. Don't know. That's
4:11
not it's not totally related. Okay. My mind went
4:14
there. But I'm like, oh, when you need a wee,
4:16
maybe that's good. But first, the
4:18
height of comedy. Well, I'd say
4:21
about 156 centimeters. What are
4:24
you wearing those platform shoes? I
4:27
am because it's me, but I'm about the
4:29
height of comedy. I'd say I
4:32
thought the t-shirt that said my body is
4:34
a machine that turns dicks into suck dicks
4:36
was the I thought that was the height
4:38
of comedy. It was
4:40
pretty good. I was wrong though. The
4:43
height of comedy is putting something inappropriate
4:45
in the description of a bank transfer
4:48
when you have to send someone money.
4:52
There is nothing funnier in this
4:54
world. It is
4:56
good. Do you do this
4:58
or are you too scared? I don't do it
5:00
anymore because I read an article that scared the
5:02
fucking pants off me. And
5:05
I reckon that's what's coming. This
5:09
could be the end of comedy actually, since this letter
5:11
has been sent out. And I hate to be the
5:13
one to bring it to you, but you only need
5:15
to hear one of these stories once before you go,
5:17
maybe I'll put my bank description comedy cue in the
5:19
rack. Yeah.
5:22
Let me read this headline. A British
5:24
man received a letter from his
5:27
financial institution warning him about the
5:29
controversial reference names when transferring money.
5:34
He owed $50 to a maid after a night
5:36
out. I've got a couple of back lads. Yeah.
5:39
I don't know what the 50 was for. And
5:41
he wrote Taliban training fee. Whoa.
5:45
What the fuck? In
5:47
the description. Oh my
5:49
God. Which automatically flagged
5:51
and automatically opened an investigation
5:53
with the anti money laundering
5:55
and counter terrorism financing department.
6:00
I've got two things to say. First
6:03
of all, I used to write
6:05
funny things like, oh, drugs or
6:08
drugs, you know, but like the
6:10
word drugs, not like, oh, money for
6:12
heroin or something. Like I just got
6:15
drugs or like, oh, poo poo patrol
6:17
and then send the money. Thanks
6:19
for a good night. Yeah, great.
6:22
Right. Not that.
6:24
Because that is insane. But
6:27
I've found a hole in their plan.
6:30
Do you think that if there was
6:32
something nefarious going on such as that,
6:34
that that's what you would put in
6:37
the thing? Hiding in plain sight. Like,
6:41
see, Tony, every time there's an
6:43
innocent victim, Tony, because remember
6:45
this about the Facebook Marketplace scan. Oh,
6:48
yeah. Anytime there's an innocent victim, Tony goes, that's what
6:50
they want you to think. That's
6:52
a I do do that. Question. What
6:56
does it say we were? Have you missed
6:58
it? Did you miss me saying to do
7:02
say we were? Should
7:05
when we pay these guys next
7:07
right? Something fucked instead of
7:09
like Sophie Woods pay and says like boom
7:13
job or something. Is
7:15
that harassment? Because it is. Please.
7:17
I'm H.R. That was
7:20
inappropriate. I'm really sorry. Would
7:23
it have been okay if I said it to Jay?
7:26
Yeah, it would have been better if you said it to James. It's
7:29
true. Yeah. So because that's what
7:31
he's saving up. Do the guys think I should get a boob
7:33
job? Do
7:36
the guys think I should get a boob job or are
7:38
they adding that I have had a boob job? We
7:45
pay them in putt-fuckers. Tony's
7:50
lost the guard board. If
7:53
you got paid in boob jobs, yeah,
7:55
how many would you need a year? Oh,
7:58
I want to be covered in. It's. Fuck,
8:04
he's done all right. He's got 19 boobs.
8:07
Doing very well. Yeah. Ooh. How's he
8:10
doing? Very well. That feels like a,
8:12
like ancient way of like telling how
8:14
rich people are. Eight maids a milkin.
8:18
Um, if we were hypothetically
8:20
to join the Taliban. Oh, Ryan,
8:23
what the fuck? I just think
8:25
it would be more than $50.
8:30
They have invoice numbers too. Yeah.
8:32
Like when you, I'm just saying your thing of like, maybe
8:34
they're hiding in plain sight, I think 50 bucks. No.
8:37
Well, I said surely that's not what they would
8:39
write, but yeah, the, the price should throw up
8:41
a thing. So maybe they, can
8:43
I just flag something? So he,
8:46
the bank sent him a letter cause
8:48
it, him writing that in description flagged
8:51
something. Yeah. We've just said it about 1500
8:53
times on this podcast. What do
8:55
you mean? I mean, are we, what the
8:57
bank listening? Are we going to get flagged? At
8:59
the bank flag from what AI?
9:02
I don't know. The cops going to rock up
9:04
for something. Cause we said that a lot of
9:06
times. Let me read the letter. Okay. They
9:10
lit this. What I said, we appreciate that you're
9:12
probably having a joke with your friends, but we
9:14
actually wrote that. Yeah. But we are legally obliged
9:16
to investigate such matters because when you get a
9:18
financial services license, there's a bunch of rules and
9:21
regulations you have to abide by and one of
9:23
them would be, if these words are used, you
9:25
have to look into it. Fair. And that is
9:27
fair. This is a time
9:29
consuming process. And whilst this is
9:31
the first time we have written to you, we
9:35
also had to investigate the payment you
9:38
made last month that said ISIS training
9:40
as well. What the fuck? Your friend
9:42
will also have been pinged by his
9:44
bank when the money hits his accounts
9:46
as well. This is
9:49
a polite request to ask you to
9:51
cease marking payments in this matter. Kind
9:53
regards blocked out name from blocked out
9:55
bank. Not their real name. Oh,
9:58
what? Oh, I was like, Oh no.
