that everything be cooked can't forget

00:03:19,949 --> 00:03:18,100
tank of course there were told thing

81
00:03:22,110 --> 00:03:19,959
takes where where is the think tank this

82
00:03:23,699 --> 00:03:22,120
week in our favorite club down the

83
00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:23,709
street which is the Canterbury holston

84
00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:26,680
park RSL which is a bit of a legend of

85
00:03:30,990 --> 00:03:28,870
Club landing in sydney if you ever come

86
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:31,000
to Australia if you lives the overseas

87
00:03:37,229 --> 00:03:33,790
or here in Sydney go to the CHP RSL

88
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:37,239
because it is a cabaret Mecca it is

89
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:39,730
they've got a lot of them acts that were

90
00:03:46,410 --> 00:03:43,570
really bigger than 60 in fact i think

91
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:46,420
the search is a circus or the secrets of

92
00:03:50,460 --> 00:03:48,430
that i actually supported the searches

93
00:03:52,110 --> 00:03:50,470
at can be healthy park areas of couple

94
00:03:56,009 --> 00:03:52,120
years ago anything they were still

95
00:03:57,570 --> 00:03:56,019
walking without Zimmer frame amazing

96
00:03:59,759 --> 00:03:57,580
tell you what talking about the

97
00:04:03,690 --> 00:03:59,769
Canterbury Coulson park area so it was

98
00:04:06,870 --> 00:04:03,700
there I met Don lane it was not it was

99
00:04:09,509 --> 00:04:06,880
you did bout five years back I was there

100
00:04:13,170 --> 00:04:09,519
for some other reason I can't remember

101
00:04:15,990 --> 00:04:13,180
why and Don Lane was divided out of that

102
00:04:17,610 --> 00:04:16,000
I think all do it was a game as America

103
00:04:20,940 --> 00:04:17,620
now we mentioned online of course

104
00:04:24,510 --> 00:04:20,950
because he died only yesterday yes at 75

105
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:24,520
and he was the man who kicked james

106
00:04:28,780 --> 00:04:27,010
randi off his varieties in a fit of rage

107
00:04:33,010 --> 00:04:28,790
in fact I'll just play that

108
00:04:34,870 --> 00:04:33,020
right now there you go wow it's

109
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:34,880
definitely more like an over the Doris

110
00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:37,370
Stokes Doran he believed in her

111
00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:39,110
thoroughly well you got to think of the

112
00:04:42,340 --> 00:04:40,880
time it was I mean this is Don lane he

113
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:42,350
had his show in the late 70s to the

114
00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:44,450
early 80s hmm and that was really

115
00:04:48,910 --> 00:04:47,120
especially the late 70s was the big time

116
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:48,920
for all the spoon bending and the

117
00:04:52,930 --> 00:04:50,810
psychics so that's sort of funny people

118
00:04:54,220 --> 00:04:52,940
here and so Doris Stokes and these

119
00:04:57,190 --> 00:04:54,230
people would come on the Don Lane show

120
00:04:59,110 --> 00:04:57,200
do their act really well and convince a

121
00:05:01,060 --> 00:04:59,120
lot of bids a lot of people Don Lane was

122
00:05:03,220 --> 00:05:01,070
obviously I even here comes James Randi

123
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:03,230
saying no it's not really happening well

124
00:05:06,850 --> 00:05:04,730
darling spit the dummy is they're saying

125
00:05:09,190 --> 00:05:06,860
because there's good ratings yeah good

126
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:09,200
ratings and it would be ironic if he was

127
00:05:14,290 --> 00:05:11,210
actually up there now looking down on us

128
00:05:16,510 --> 00:05:14,300
yo you know trying to break through that

129
00:05:18,910 --> 00:05:16,520
sort of veil of communication that the

130
00:05:21,250 --> 00:05:18,920
spirit people can't get through to our

131
00:05:24,610 --> 00:05:21,260
to lowly humans like I wouldn't miss be

132
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:24,620
I wound up your phone is so ironic and

133
00:05:30,610 --> 00:05:27,530
talking about irony yes a median right

134
00:05:33,670 --> 00:05:30,620

00:06:48,109 --> 00:06:43,059
weblog yoyi which means skeptical dad

163
00:06:54,929 --> 00:06:48,119

worth looking forward to its hotting up

218
00:08:53,020 --> 00:08:51,670
in that area too is that at the moment

219
00:08:54,460 --> 00:08:53,030
because there's a lot of

220
00:08:55,930 --> 00:08:54,470
there's been a lot of new sort of

221
00:08:58,390 --> 00:08:55,940
scientific things going on there trying

222
00:09:01,330 --> 00:08:58,400
to discover more missing links and it's

223
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:01,340
more about how life's actually evolved

224
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:02,930
me isn't it strange that every major

225
00:09:06,630 --> 00:09:04,730
discovery they're making now in the past

226
00:09:09,490 --> 00:09:06,640
year I think there's been several all

227
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:09,500
support the theory of evolution isn't

228
00:09:14,860 --> 00:09:11,930
that just I can't create I'm dumbfounded

229
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:14,870
I'm done for how could that ever happen

230
00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:17,330
I just don't understand seven no I just

231
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:18,800
