1 00:00:20,230 --> 00:00:24,470 Welcome to Glen and Nick's Celebrity Intervention. This is the show where we 2 00:00:24,470 --> 00:00:28,870 take a well -known celebrity and put them through a few hoops, tell them some 3 00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:33,070 home truths and not before time. To help me do that, let's introduce you to my 4 00:00:33,070 --> 00:00:34,350 co -host, Lawrence Mooney. 5 00:00:34,730 --> 00:00:35,730 Thank you. 6 00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:42,550 Lawrence, I've just got to ask straight off the bat. 7 00:00:42,890 --> 00:00:45,290 This is a big night for you because you're on the other side of the 8 00:00:45,290 --> 00:00:46,290 intervention. Yes. 9 00:00:46,650 --> 00:00:50,730 How does it feel? This is unique territory for me. It feels great to be 10 00:00:50,730 --> 00:00:52,050 intervener. How's it going? 11 00:00:52,550 --> 00:00:54,130 Well, it's a process, Mick. 12 00:00:54,750 --> 00:00:58,370 One day at a time. One day at a time. Well, I hope you've come on a good day. 13 00:00:58,490 --> 00:01:02,670 Let's get straight into it. Now, before we meet tonight's celebrity intervention 14 00:01:02,670 --> 00:01:06,150 subject, there are other people, places and things that need a good hard 15 00:01:06,150 --> 00:01:08,390 intervention. Let's get straight into it. Who needs one? 16 00:01:08,780 --> 00:01:10,900 I'll tell you what, Elon Musk. Elon Musk! 17 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,500 Doesn't he? Yes, he does. 18 00:01:12,740 --> 00:01:13,780 Look, the Tesla fine. 19 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,980 But his surname, Musk, it's my favourite lolly flavour. 20 00:01:17,420 --> 00:01:21,720 And so, because I've got a great imagination, I keep thinking, does he 21 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,160 willy like a musk stick? 22 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,800 And if he does, it's no longer my favourite lolly flavour. 23 00:01:29,390 --> 00:01:33,370 There you go. Someone had to say it. What about the avatars from the Avatar 24 00:01:33,370 --> 00:01:34,910 movie? Boo! 25 00:01:35,390 --> 00:01:37,750 You're just a bunch of stuck -up smurfs. 26 00:01:39,070 --> 00:01:44,350 On a zimp it. Get off the gear and get cracking. Who else do you think? Oh, 27 00:01:44,390 --> 00:01:45,390 sourdough bread. 28 00:01:46,010 --> 00:01:49,850 Sourdough. No, I've had a gutful. If you can't put a snag in you at Bunnings, 29 00:01:49,870 --> 00:01:50,970 you're not bread. That's right. 30 00:01:51,770 --> 00:01:55,350 You're a poor man's baguette. That's all I've got to say. But what about dog 31 00:01:55,350 --> 00:01:57,790 shows? What about some events the dogs can enjoy? 32 00:01:58,090 --> 00:02:00,310 Like, I don't know, licking your own balls. 33 00:02:00,630 --> 00:02:02,310 Getting the lipstick out. 34 00:02:04,250 --> 00:02:08,050 You know what I'm saying? So much to intervene against. What about this one? 35 00:02:08,210 --> 00:02:09,630 Paper straws. 36 00:02:11,589 --> 00:02:16,170 Thanks for ruining my smoothies. I can't give a shit about the sea turtles. Give 37 00:02:16,170 --> 00:02:17,330 me back some plastic. 38 00:02:17,890 --> 00:02:19,850 What is the natural enemy of paper? 39 00:02:20,130 --> 00:02:22,730 Water. That's why they don't put drinks in paper bags. 40 00:02:23,550 --> 00:02:24,570 One more to go. 41 00:02:24,810 --> 00:02:26,470 Oh, oh boy. Pandas. 42 00:02:27,110 --> 00:02:29,010 Pandas. Always talking about their fertility. 43 00:02:29,370 --> 00:02:33,350 They're only fertile for 10 minutes a year. Come on, get some oysters into 44 00:02:33,740 --> 00:02:37,920 crank up the Barry White and get down to it. That's why you haven't got a style 45 00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:40,540 named after you. There's dog style, there's not panda style. 46 00:02:41,780 --> 00:02:42,900 Panda style is this. 47 00:02:44,820 --> 00:02:48,100 Someone has to come in and push their bottom up and down. Come on, pandas! 48 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,240 I've worked up a sweat. We have indeed. 49 00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:55,700 I think we're ready to go. Now, it's time, as you may have realised, Glenn's 50 00:02:55,700 --> 00:03:00,120 with us because, as always, he's out hunting down tonight's celebrity 51 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,240 intervention subject. 52 00:03:01,540 --> 00:03:06,340 And, as you know, he has to find them and bring them back to the studio by 53 00:03:06,340 --> 00:03:08,860 tricking them into it using a Kenny Roos. 54 00:03:09,100 --> 00:03:11,900 Let's cross out live and see what Glenn's up to. 55 00:03:12,940 --> 00:03:15,480 Over there is Jim Jeffries. 56 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:16,840 Let's see how we go. 57 00:03:18,990 --> 00:03:20,310 Jim.

The old cervical displacement, air pressure. 67 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,820 Cervical? I was an acupressurist back in the 80s, worked in LA. Just follow my 68 00:03:40,820 --> 00:03:44,740 fingers with your eyes. What are we doing? Just trust me, follow my fingers 69 00:03:44,740 --> 00:03:48,980 your eyes.

Just trust me now, and away you go. 71 00:03:55,260 --> 00:04:00,320 Your C2 and your C3 are now back in position, and I vouch for that. 72 00:04:02,500 --> 00:04:05,900 You're doing a little bit more work. I reckon you'd come back to my place. No. 73 00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:09,880 Come back to my place. I've barely got towels. I've got oils. I've got cups. 74 00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:10,659 I've got needles. 75 00:04:10,660 --> 00:04:12,820 Just pop in the back. Don't ask any questions. 76 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:14,880 It's gone again. 77 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,060 Okay, just relax. Nice and easy. Pop it in down there. What sort of pants are 78 00:04:19,060 --> 00:04:19,659 you wearing? 79 00:04:19,660 --> 00:04:20,659 Just denim. 80 00:04:20,660 --> 00:04:22,640 Just normal jeans? Do they come off easily? 81 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,580 stand -up this country's ever produced, and let's be honest, there's a bit going 82 00:04:35,580 --> 00:04:36,580 on that needs work. 83 00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:39,480 Yeah, we've got to have a chat to him, and he needs an intervention. 84 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:40,720 He does indeed. 85 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,120 Obviously, you've got to take them a while to get back. It looked like a city 86 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,760 hotel, so... Oh, hang on, they're here right now! Make it work! 87 00:04:47,260 --> 00:04:48,260 Woo! 88 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,240 How you doing, Robert? 89 00:04:54,020 --> 00:04:59,140 Hi, Jim. How are you? Thanks for coming. You know... Please, sit down. 90 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,219 You know Glenn? 91 00:05:00,220 --> 00:05:01,220 Yes. 92 00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:07,530 How are you, Jim? 93 00:05:08,150 --> 00:05:09,530 It's great to see you. I'm surprised. 94 00:05:09,730 --> 00:05:14,210 We wish it was under better circumstances because, obviously, 95 00:05:14,210 --> 00:05:17,330 work to be done here tonight. Jim, you're here because we love you, man. 96 00:05:17,550 --> 00:05:19,370 We love you. We care. But I don't even know you. 97 00:05:21,050 --> 00:05:23,030 I've just met this one. I know you a bit. 98 00:05:23,729 --> 00:05:25,490 But we're the closest friends you have. 99 00:05:26,630 --> 00:05:29,550 So, Jim, there's a bit to work through, but I thought we'd start with the big 100 00:05:29,550 --> 00:05:32,990 one, and let's get this out of the system first. Straight off the bat, I 101 00:05:32,990 --> 00:05:33,990 ask you this. 102 00:05:34,910 --> 00:05:37,270 Why do you and your fans hate each other so much? 103 00:05:37,490 --> 00:05:40,590 What, me and my fans? Why do you and your fans hate each other? It's a 104 00:05:40,590 --> 00:05:43,610 of behaviour that's been going on for some time, and I'm going to take you 105 00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:47,090 many years to your time in Manchester, which was the canary in the coal mine. 106 00:05:47,210 --> 00:05:51,490 When this incident happened live on stage, we should have tipped this as a 107 00:05:51,490 --> 00:05:52,490 flag. Thank you. 108 00:05:52,750 --> 00:05:53,790 It's pushing it inwards. 109 00:05:54,670 --> 00:05:56,010 Where do you... Oh, hang on. 110 00:06:06,650 --> 00:06:07,650 That's hard to watch. 111 00:06:07,930 --> 00:06:10,070 Yeah, I find those memories hard, actually. 112 00:06:10,710 --> 00:06:14,210 I should point out, that's a traditional welcome to country in Manchester. 113 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,620 There's nothing that wrong with that. What are your memories of that? 114 00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:20,180 Because you look like you were being chased by a bee. 115 00:06:20,420 --> 00:06:24,580 I was living in Manchester at the time. I had somebody heckling. There was a 116 00:06:24,580 --> 00:06:29,420 woman over there heckling, and I put her down several times, and then I had a 117 00:06:29,420 --> 00:06:33,800 closing line that I've used often, which is, I'm going to leave you alone now, 118 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,080 like your dad did. 119 00:06:35,580 --> 00:06:36,580 Anyway, 120 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,760 a guy over here had some issues with his father that hadn't been resolved. 121 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,110 He was an Irishman, and I know this because, He didn't punch me right away. 122 00:06:47,110 --> 00:06:48,770 turns out he finished his drink. 123 00:06:49,290 --> 00:06:53,430 So he sat for a little bit longer, finished his drink, and then he ran up. 124 00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:56,190 if you see the first bit of the footage, I go, hang on, mate. I thought he was 125 00:06:56,190 --> 00:06:59,850 looking for the bathroom. You know what I mean? And then I get the punch to the 126 00:06:59,850 --> 00:07:03,710 head. And then in my brain, I was fighting back really good. But now 127 00:07:03,710 --> 00:07:04,710 the footage. 128 00:07:05,290 --> 00:07:09,010 I'm pretty sure I just cowered for most of it. And then the lovely people of 129 00:07:09,010 --> 00:07:12,890 Manchester came up and actually saved me. Now, every time I go to Manchester, 130 00:07:12,890 --> 00:07:16,110 think we saw four or five people. If I'm in a bar in Manchester, someone will 131 00:07:16,110 --> 00:07:21,650 come up to me and go, I was the guy who came up and saved you. I bought about 40 132 00:07:21,650 --> 00:07:26,350 pints in Manchester for all the different people who saved me. I get 133 00:07:26,650 --> 00:07:30,750 I go into the dressing room. The other comic on is Michael McIntyre. Now, 134 00:07:30,770 --> 00:07:33,810 neither me or Michael were anybody in the industry back in 2006. 135 00:07:34,110 --> 00:07:38,650 And Michael was watching the footage of it happening on the TV in the dressing 136 00:07:38,650 --> 00:07:42,030 room. And as he's watching it, he hears me coming. I've got my black eye, and 137 00:07:42,030 --> 00:07:45,770 I'm swearing in the hallway. He hears me coming, so he changes the channel. And 138 00:07:45,770 --> 00:07:47,430 I walk in, and he's just watching Snooker. 139 00:07:49,250 --> 00:07:53,630 And I come in the room, and he doesn't even turn around. He just goes, how did 140 00:07:53,630 --> 00:07:54,630 it go? 141 00:07:56,010 --> 00:08:00,590 And I said, not good, Michael. I just got punched in the head. And he went, no 142 00:08:00,590 --> 00:08:01,650 one can follow me. 143 00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:09,290 Something for me that is incredulous in that story is that an Irishman who was 144 00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:11,030 drunk resorted to violence. 145 00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:18,010 The security caught him and they took him backstage and then they said, oh, do 146 00:08:18,010 --> 00:08:19,010 you want to press charges? 147 00:08:19,050 --> 00:08:21,590 And I looked at the footage and I said, I think I'll make more money out of the 148 00:08:21,590 --> 00:08:22,590 footage. 149 00:08:22,670 --> 00:08:27,190 Just lock him up for the night. But thank God, this was before camera 150 00:08:27,570 --> 00:08:30,130 Yeah, right. Because if there were other angles, you would have saw the joke 151 00:08:30,130 --> 00:08:32,070 that I said before and you probably wouldn't be on my side. 152 00:08:33,549 --> 00:08:36,950 Well, we're glad you're here and we're glad you're talking about it. Someone 153 00:08:36,950 --> 00:08:37,950 else who's here. 154 00:08:38,299 --> 00:08:41,780 Of course, he's here tonight. The guy from Manchester, he's in the crowd. 155 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,640 No. There he is. 156 00:08:44,059 --> 00:08:45,060 No. 157 00:08:45,180 --> 00:08:46,660 If I'm reading the body language. 158 00:08:46,940 --> 00:08:48,680 It is him. Made up with your dad, mate? 159 00:08:50,220 --> 00:08:51,560 Don't. Don't bite. 160 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,480 Don't bite. We're going to watch this as the episode goes on. Maybe we can all 161 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,420 heal a little bit tonight. A little bit together. We're going to go to a break. 162 00:08:58,620 --> 00:08:59,620 Okay. 163 00:09:17,689 --> 00:09:21,470 Welcome back to the next celebrity intervention with our special guest, Jim 164 00:09:21,470 --> 00:09:25,270 Jefferies. You did very well, Jim. You seem to be confronting it head on. I 165 00:09:25,270 --> 00:09:25,849 to improve. 166 00:09:25,850 --> 00:09:26,850 You do want to improve. 167 00:09:27,170 --> 00:09:31,110 There's a bit of improving to do. By the way, in our research, we found out that 168 00:09:31,110 --> 00:09:34,970 wasn't the first time you've been punched on stage. Do you remember your 169 00:09:34,970 --> 00:09:36,270 appearance on Vidiot? 170 00:09:36,550 --> 00:09:40,190 Well, I punched on... Oh, Jeffrey threw you off there. 171 00:09:41,470 --> 00:09:43,030 You can get him after the show. 172 00:09:43,330 --> 00:09:44,330 Yeah, get him now. 173 00:09:44,950 --> 00:09:45,950 That's it, all right. 174 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,040 That was my friend Sebastian Bobois. 175 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,380 He was... Yeah, he was from the... I haven't seen that footage since I was... 176 00:09:56,380 --> 00:09:59,680 That was Dwayne McLean, the D -train, was the other... Yeah. 177 00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:05,500 Was the guest who played for the Sydney Kings. I won so much shit on video. I 178 00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:09,660 won a voucher of movie tickets to Hoyt. Right. And I won a TV... 179 00:10:10,330 --> 00:10:12,610 A video player. I went through several episodes. 180 00:10:13,310 --> 00:10:14,350 You carry over champ. 181 00:10:14,830 --> 00:10:18,390 No, I lost the final episode. They were going to give me a camcorder, like a big 182 00:10:18,390 --> 00:10:19,390 thing like that. 183 00:10:19,570 --> 00:10:24,490 It was brilliant. I was 14 years old. Let's take a look at that little kid up 184 00:10:24,490 --> 00:10:25,730 there. What happened to him? 185 00:10:26,390 --> 00:10:29,650 What happened to that beautiful little boy? 186 00:10:29,910 --> 00:10:31,950 His teeth just became good on their own. 187 00:10:35,050 --> 00:10:36,530 And you've got a little bowl cut. 188 00:10:37,030 --> 00:10:38,030 Yeah, yeah. 189 00:10:38,070 --> 00:10:41,710 Obviously, that was my favourite outfit. I'm on TV. That must have been my best 190 00:10:41,710 --> 00:10:43,010 top, a billabong jumper. 191 00:10:43,950 --> 00:10:47,870 I was ready to go, no, that was brilliant, Vidiot. I'll tell you about 192 00:10:47,890 --> 00:10:50,910 right. So the first episode, you play with kids from your school. They come 193 00:10:50,910 --> 00:10:52,870 to the school, they audition you, and then they go. 194 00:10:53,110 --> 00:10:56,350 If you win, like, the Monday through the Thursday, on the Thursday, you get to 195 00:10:56,350 --> 00:10:58,710 play with the other kids that have won from the other school. 196 00:10:58,970 --> 00:11:02,050 And none of the girls at my school liked me because they knew me. 197 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:09,680 Now, these girls that were on the next episode, right, we were having fun. 198 00:11:09,780 --> 00:11:11,280 I had a what a movie ticket. 199 00:11:12,540 --> 00:11:16,760 I'd won all these movie tickets. So I was like, oh, I can't go to the movies 200 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,520 myself. So I took one of them to Strictly Ballroom. 201 00:11:21,900 --> 00:11:27,540 And we snogged all day. And there was Strictly Ballroom. The rest is history. 202 00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:30,400 Now, that's another point of intervention here. But we want to know. 203 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,600 We were discussing this off. Are you a bit of a fraud? 204 00:11:36,620 --> 00:11:39,220 I'm going to take that with a grain of incense. 205 00:11:40,220 --> 00:11:44,700 Well, what I mean is you present yourself as an edgy young comic and 206 00:11:44,700 --> 00:11:49,460 the edge and angsty, but your background is quite different. Did you or did you 207 00:11:49,460 --> 00:11:55,380 not come up through WAPA, which is a school for theatre, musical theatre... 208 00:11:55,380 --> 00:11:56,380 opera. And opera. 209 00:11:57,630 --> 00:12:02,050 Is that where you come from? I will have you know that Hugh Jackman went to 210 00:12:02,050 --> 00:12:06,250 Whopper and he's bloody Wolverine. So stop trying to make me seem like some 211 00:12:06,250 --> 00:12:10,830 of wimp. If it's good enough for Wolverine, it's good enough. What was 212 00:12:10,830 --> 00:12:16,210 forte? None of it. I did singing and dancing. I wasn't good at school. I 213 00:12:16,210 --> 00:12:19,430 school. The only way I was going to get to university is through auditioning. So 214 00:12:19,430 --> 00:12:23,070 I went and sang a song in front of them. It was like an Australian idol. 215 00:12:23,470 --> 00:12:26,490 You go and sing in front of a few people, then you do a monologue, and 216 00:12:26,490 --> 00:12:30,430 you're off at WAPA, right? And it was great. It was over in Western Australia. 217 00:12:30,590 --> 00:12:33,890 Cheap to live there back then. And it was just like being in fame. 218 00:12:34,110 --> 00:12:36,290 Every day you would be singing and dancing. 219 00:12:36,950 --> 00:12:39,310 Let's have a look at you in action. There we go. 220 00:12:40,410 --> 00:12:41,410 Yeah, 221 00:12:41,530 --> 00:12:42,670 it looks very highbrow. 222 00:12:44,030 --> 00:12:47,410 Here you are. I think this is your first invitation to the Met Gala. 223 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:49,759 What are you doing there? 224 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,499 What's that? 225 00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:53,980 That's actually, that was an opera. That's a professional production for the 226 00:12:53,980 --> 00:12:56,640 Australian Opera of Romeo and Juliet. Oh, wow. 227 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,520 And that was, I assume, a masquerade party. 228 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,660 Did you make your own costume? 229 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,620 And did you mind looking like a fuckwit? 230 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,920 What have we got here? 231 00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:14,060 That's after the interval. That's a different thing. 232 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,640 Looks like you're about to tie someone to a railway track. 233 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,420 I'll tell you what we don't have there, a real moustache. 234 00:13:20,660 --> 00:13:23,800 I was about 18 there. That hadn't really grown in. 235 00:13:24,680 --> 00:13:27,560 We've got another photo here. Can we have a quick look at this? 236 00:13:27,820 --> 00:13:29,780 Oh, this is the first time you punched a cone? 237 00:13:33,150 --> 00:13:35,610 You look like John Mayer's nerdy twin brother. 238 00:13:36,190 --> 00:13:39,150 Lawrence, you went to drama school. Yeah, I went to the National Theatre 239 00:13:39,150 --> 00:13:43,150 School, did three years of movement. I was actually quite a good dancer, and 240 00:13:43,150 --> 00:13:46,730 of my signature moves, I perfected this at the Manhattan in Ringwood. It's 241 00:13:46,730 --> 00:13:53,690 called... It's called... We're all going there afterwards. 242 00:13:54,890 --> 00:13:56,130 We've got a minibus outside. 243 00:13:56,790 --> 00:13:58,230 It's called Double Trouble. 244 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,520 People actually understand the joke you made there. I didn't understand it. 245 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,500 I can tell you what, it never worked. 246 00:14:16,300 --> 00:14:19,520 Can I ask you, you had some killer moves back in the day, did you not? 247 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,720 Look, I can teach you how to do the killer move. In the wrong hands, it can 248 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,760 people in trouble, but I do a move where... Don't try this at home. 249 00:14:28,140 --> 00:14:32,400 You're on the dance floor, you pretend you've got a toffee, and it's not 250 00:14:32,540 --> 00:14:35,740 you put it down the back of your pants, and then you've got to open the toffee 251 00:14:35,740 --> 00:14:36,980 with your ass. So it's like this. 252 00:14:49,770 --> 00:14:53,210 Do you feel like you're back at Whopper? Yeah, yeah, it's exactly the same 253 00:14:53,210 --> 00:14:58,010 feeling. Does it have to be a toffee? Can it be... Like, does a minty wrapper 254 00:14:58,010 --> 00:15:00,130 work? Minty would work, yeah. 255 00:15:00,450 --> 00:15:02,410 It's like he's trying to undo a phantom. 256 00:15:02,690 --> 00:15:04,430 You'd actually have a red skin after that. 257 00:15:07,010 --> 00:15:11,570 While we're heading down the fraud track, there's someone else who wants to 258 00:15:11,570 --> 00:15:13,150 heard. Reece Darby. 259 00:15:13,410 --> 00:15:14,410 What's Reece? 260 00:15:14,530 --> 00:15:16,790 Oh, hey, just leaning up against the cupboard there. 261 00:15:17,310 --> 00:15:20,730 Rhys Darby here, and as a New Zealander, I'm used to one thing. 262 00:15:21,250 --> 00:15:26,850 Australians claiming our things as their own. From Farlap to Russell Crowe to 263 00:15:26,850 --> 00:15:29,250 the Pavlova. They want it to work, guys. 264 00:15:29,530 --> 00:15:31,190 And what are you putting strawberries on it for? 265 00:15:31,550 --> 00:15:32,850 You're not supposed to do that. 266 00:15:33,570 --> 00:15:38,650 Anywho, Jim Jefferies, which isn't even his real name, you have done something 267 00:15:38,650 --> 00:15:39,650 even weirder. 268 00:15:39,890 --> 00:15:42,810 You've pretended to be a New Zealander and got caught. 269 00:15:43,090 --> 00:15:44,230 Now that's just wrong. 270 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,300 Yeah, it feels like stolen vela, mate. 271 00:15:48,220 --> 00:15:49,520 It's actually unnatural. 272 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:55,480 It's like kissing your sister, which you Aussies can take credit for all on your 273 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,480 own. 274 00:15:57,540 --> 00:16:04,400 Now, he's referring to... So me and Reece, we started out in London 275 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,180 So 25 years ago, we were working together. 276 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,120 There was an incident. 277 00:16:09,420 --> 00:16:12,700 I'm living in England, right, doing stand -up, and... 278 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,180 Australia loses the World Cup in rugby. 279 00:16:16,420 --> 00:16:20,960 Johnny Wilkinson kicks that goal. I remember. Tough day for us all. Then 280 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,060 year later, we lose the Ashes. 281 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,260 Greatest Ashes series ever, but we lose. 282 00:16:26,700 --> 00:16:28,740 And then my life was a misery. 283 00:16:28,940 --> 00:16:35,180 So every time I get on stage, the British, lovely people, great losers. 284 00:16:35,790 --> 00:16:39,230 Terrible winners. The worst winners that ever were. I hope they never win 285 00:16:39,230 --> 00:16:41,930 another thing again, and I think my wish will come true. 286 00:16:42,290 --> 00:16:47,610 Anyway, so every time I get on stage, they're like, they're like, they're 287 00:16:47,710 --> 00:16:48,830 Johnny Wilkinson! 288 00:16:49,310 --> 00:16:50,310 The action! 289 00:16:50,350 --> 00:16:53,050 I couldn't get a joke out for a year! 290 00:16:53,350 --> 00:16:54,350 For a year! 291 00:16:54,410 --> 00:16:57,750 Johnny Wilkinson, The Ashes. One time I'm in London, I'm doing five gigs that 292 00:16:57,750 --> 00:17:01,190 night. I end up one o 'clock in the morning doing the London Comedy Store. 293 00:17:01,590 --> 00:17:04,910 Last gig of the night, I've heard Johnny Wilkinson, The Ashes. Johnny Wilkinson, 294 00:17:04,950 --> 00:17:07,790 The Ashes. I say to the MC, I said, I can't handle this anymore. 295 00:17:08,450 --> 00:17:09,710 Tell them I'm from New Zealand. 296 00:17:11,490 --> 00:17:14,250 I said, I don't want to put up with it. They go, please welcome to the stage, 297 00:17:14,290 --> 00:17:16,950 all the way from New Zealand, Jim Jefferies. 298 00:17:17,290 --> 00:17:21,210 and I'm having a great gig for the first time in a long time. I have the 299 00:17:21,210 --> 00:17:25,950 audience in the palm of my hand. No problems. Every joke is hitting. I have 300 00:17:25,950 --> 00:17:29,390 change a few lines. Like, you know, growing up in New Zealand, little things 301 00:17:29,390 --> 00:17:30,390 like that. 302 00:17:30,410 --> 00:17:32,030 That harbour bridge in Auckland. 303 00:17:32,250 --> 00:17:33,250 Yeah. 304 00:17:33,710 --> 00:17:37,570 In the third row, there's a rather large Maori fella. Is there? 305 00:17:37,870 --> 00:17:41,810 And I went, you know, growing up in New Zealand, and all I hear is this, not 306 00:17:41,810 --> 00:17:42,810 true. 307 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,940 No, no. No, no. Anyway, New Zealand. 308 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:52,640 Bullshit. 309 00:17:53,920 --> 00:18:00,420 And he doesn't even say a protest. He just stands up and he goes, he's not 310 00:18:00,420 --> 00:18:02,800 New Zealand. He's an Australian. I'm going to go for piss. 311 00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:11,320 And the audience, not only did we lose the ashes, not only did we 312 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,760 lose the rugby, but I was lying convict scum. 313 00:18:16,590 --> 00:18:19,610 They booed me off the stage, and I was just like, good night, everyone. 314 00:18:19,870 --> 00:18:23,290 God bless New Zealand. And Rhys was in the audience, and he's never let me 315 00:18:23,290 --> 00:18:26,130 bloody forget it. Something else in there that we noticed. You said it's not 316 00:18:26,130 --> 00:18:28,030 your real name. Yeah. What's that about? 317 00:18:29,270 --> 00:18:30,270 What's going on? 318 00:18:30,370 --> 00:18:33,730 You mean you changed it to Jim Jefferies? It turns out that having an 319 00:18:33,730 --> 00:18:36,850 alliterated name, Mick Malloy, it sounds better, right? 320 00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:41,350 Okay, so is that your real name? It is my real name. 321 00:18:42,370 --> 00:18:44,390 It's actually my dancing name. Yeah, yeah. 322 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,640 You look like you have more of a, like, Croatian -y sort of Greek sort of bend 323 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,640 in. 324 00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:53,520 Maloyoski. I'm in the witness protection care. 325 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,060 The big reveal. 326 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:02,700 Okay, so my real name is Jeffrey James Nugent, and it's Jeffrey with a G. 327 00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:08,800 And Nugent's spelled N -U -G -E -N -T, and James is my middle name. So I 328 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,580 it to Jeffrey James for one show, and then I changed it to Jim Jefferies. And 329 00:19:12,580 --> 00:19:13,640 the reason I did that... 330 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:19,220 I was 17 and I was doing an open mic at the Manly Boat Shed in Sydney. 331 00:19:19,860 --> 00:19:26,780 Adam Hills was emceeing. Never heard of him. He was only a young man 332 00:19:26,780 --> 00:19:28,460 as well. I think he had both legs back then. 333 00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:34,940 Anyway, 334 00:19:36,180 --> 00:19:39,440 so he welcomed me on the stage. 335 00:19:39,950 --> 00:19:43,790 And he looked at his bit of paper and he said, please, Godfrey Nugget. 336 00:19:45,410 --> 00:19:49,690 And I was like, Godfrey Nugget, that's not, that's got to go. Yeah, that one's 337 00:19:49,690 --> 00:19:51,730 not going to, it doesn't look good on a banner. 338 00:19:52,230 --> 00:19:55,390 Godfrey Nugget. So I changed it to Jeffrey James and then Jim Jefferies 339 00:19:55,390 --> 00:19:58,090 Jeffrey James sounds too much like Jesse James or something like that and then 340 00:19:58,090 --> 00:20:01,930 Jim Jefferies. But I haven't gone by that name and I've kept that a secret 341 00:20:01,930 --> 00:20:04,110 30 years and I appreciate that, mate. 342 00:20:04,630 --> 00:20:07,170 So is there a little part of you that protects? 343 00:20:07,660 --> 00:20:08,800 Young Geoffrey Nugent. 344 00:20:09,900 --> 00:20:11,540 Geoffrey Nugent is a nerd. 345 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,040 Exactly. 346 00:20:13,180 --> 00:20:14,860 Exactly. But he won Buddy Vidiot. 347 00:20:16,620 --> 00:20:19,540 Did your parents make you change your name because they saw your act? 348 00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:24,660 Please don't be a Nugent. I'll be honest with you. At one stage I was like, if 349 00:20:24,660 --> 00:20:27,820 the opera singing in musical theatre career takes off, you'll be Geoffrey 350 00:20:27,820 --> 00:20:31,680 Nugent. If me saying the C word a lot takes off, I'll be Jim Jefferies. And it 351 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,020 just so happens it went the other way. 352 00:20:33,220 --> 00:20:34,280 Can you hang around Godfrey? 353 00:20:36,679 --> 00:20:38,380 We've got some more to work through. 354 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,360 I can't hang around Jim every day. 355 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,520 Hang around Jim. We'll be back with Jim Jeffries in just a while. 356 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:02,280 Welcome back to Glenn and Nick's Celebrity Intervention with my co -host, 357 00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,360 Lawrence Mooney. You're doing a great job. I'm really enjoying this. And I 358 00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:08,180 that we're making some great progress, Jim. I'm nervous. 359 00:21:08,980 --> 00:21:13,380 There's a lot of secrets that have come out now. I'm not over the moon about it. 360 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,680 I am concerned about one thing, and that is your Hollywood lifestyle. I think 361 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,660 it's changing who you were. And let me remind you that I knew a young Jim 362 00:21:21,660 --> 00:21:23,920 Jefferies way back in 2001. 363 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,140 We did a gig in Terrigal, New South Wales, together. 364 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:29,680 You laugh now. 365 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,800 Because they weren't laughing then. 366 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,660 Anyway. And then your parents drove us home. 367 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,880 Someone had to. 368 00:21:38,060 --> 00:21:42,240 Yeah. I can't imagine we were sober for that show. I can't imagine that. But 369 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,420 your parents were giving you feedback about... 370 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:46,780 not swearing on stage. 371 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,520 Yes. And you swore a lot in that car. 372 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:55,240 Yeah, my parents weren't very positive about me doing stand -up. My dad more so 373 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,600 than my mother. 374 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:03,900 My mother sadly passed away five years ago. It's very sad because she didn't 375 00:22:03,900 --> 00:22:06,840 live long enough to see my father happy. She missed it by a couple of days. 376 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:14,560 If she just held on. 377 00:22:15,139 --> 00:22:18,540 She just held on. She just missed it. It was bloody terrible. 378 00:22:19,220 --> 00:22:20,620 But my mother, 379 00:22:22,260 --> 00:22:26,900 I remember because I was saying the C word. Am I allowed to say it on this 380 00:22:26,980 --> 00:22:27,599 You can. 381 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:28,600 Channel 7. You can. 382 00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:30,600 Okay, so I was saying **** on stage. 383 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,200 Oh, that's C word. 384 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,320 I thought the C word was Channel 7. 385 00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:43,790 Anyway, I said it on stage at a gig when I was, you know, 18 or something like 386 00:22:43,790 --> 00:22:49,370 that. And my old PE teacher was Mr. Rod Hardness. My mother was a schoolteacher 387 00:22:49,370 --> 00:22:51,310 at the school. He classed me up the prick. 388 00:22:51,510 --> 00:22:55,070 He went the next day and he said, oh, you were saying see this and see that. 389 00:22:55,070 --> 00:22:58,030 mum came home so furious and I went, mum, I would never. 390 00:22:58,990 --> 00:23:04,610 I don't know why you'd say such a thing. So I guess I am a fool. And by the way, 391 00:23:04,690 --> 00:23:05,429 Rod's a c***. 392 00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:06,430 Yeah. 393 00:23:06,890 --> 00:23:08,750 That's what you say when you're doing that. 394 00:23:11,490 --> 00:23:12,910 Remember me, Mr Hartnett? 395 00:23:13,170 --> 00:23:17,810 You transitioned from that sweet boy swearing at your parents in the car to 396 00:23:17,810 --> 00:23:21,130 rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous in Hollywood. And we're worried 397 00:23:21,130 --> 00:23:24,010 it's just changing you. You've gone more Hollywood than Peter Allen. 398 00:23:24,270 --> 00:23:28,810 You have got a very close friend who is probably one of the most famous people 399 00:23:28,810 --> 00:23:30,290 in the world at the moment. Yes. 400 00:23:30,670 --> 00:23:33,410 She's concerned about you. Oh, I thought you were going to say someone 401 00:23:33,410 --> 00:23:35,690 different. Lisa Vanderpump. I love Lisa Vanderpump. 402 00:23:36,930 --> 00:23:39,650 You're great friends. That's a shirt that didn't fit my neck anymore. 403 00:23:41,780 --> 00:23:47,080 But that's me at her dog charity. I met Lisa. I did one of her podcasts once. 404 00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:51,860 And then she said, oh, you must come over to Villa Rosa, which is her home, 405 00:23:51,860 --> 00:23:55,680 all the ponies and the swans and all the dogs and everything. Wow. And I said, 406 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,800 oh, yeah, I'll get right on that. And I told my wife. My wife is like, we're 407 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,560 going. That's Lisa Vanderbilt. My wife's favorite, you know, like housewife. 408 00:24:04,090 --> 00:24:08,010 So we went over to the house, and me and Lisa get on like a house on fire. And 409 00:24:08,010 --> 00:24:11,910 seriously, we call each other up every couple of days and have a long chat. And 410 00:24:11,910 --> 00:24:16,390 I love Lisa with all my heart. And anyone who wants to say anything bad 411 00:24:16,390 --> 00:24:19,290 Lisa Vanderpump has to come through me first. All right, well, I'll tell you 412 00:24:19,290 --> 00:24:20,290 what. 413 00:24:20,450 --> 00:24:23,550 She may have a few bad things to say about you. 414 00:24:24,810 --> 00:24:26,890 Jim Jeffers. Oh, yes, Jim. 415 00:24:27,590 --> 00:24:29,090 I used to love Jim. 416 00:24:29,430 --> 00:24:31,130 Jim Jeffers, great guy. 417 00:24:32,010 --> 00:24:34,490 Then he came over here and he just got carried away with himself. 418 00:24:34,690 --> 00:24:39,350 I mean, I can't really explain it, but, I mean, he's gone so Hollywood. 419 00:24:39,750 --> 00:24:44,730 If I think it's too Hollywood, you know it's too Hollywood, right? 420 00:24:45,150 --> 00:24:49,910 I mean, all he talks about is Brad Pitt, Brad this, Brad that. 421 00:24:50,230 --> 00:24:54,390 I think over there, what he used to be like, you would have called him like a 422 00:24:54,390 --> 00:24:55,870 bovine or something. 423 00:24:56,170 --> 00:24:59,730 But now, I mean, he's more plastic than my... 424 00:24:59,980 --> 00:25:01,140 bloody credit card. 425 00:25:01,360 --> 00:25:02,760 I'm not saying something. 426 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,680 Well, there's a couple of accusations. 427 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,680 I'm with you.

It was a great show. And he was my 445 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,500 weatherman, and he would come on and read the weather. 446 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,240 We've got a clip. Let's take a look. 447 00:26:26,700 --> 00:26:28,900 Here's our own Jim Jeffery Show weatherman. 448 00:26:29,380 --> 00:26:30,760 How's it looking out there, weatherman? 449 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:32,600 Thank you, Jim. 450 00:26:32,900 --> 00:26:38,360 So things are going to be getting warmer in this area here and this area. 451 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:39,960 Here. 452 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,500 Thank you, Jim Jefferies, Go Weatherman. 453 00:26:44,100 --> 00:26:46,260 Do you have any future forecasts for us? 454 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,300 There is no future. 455 00:26:48,940 --> 00:26:51,780 That is huge. 456 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:58,540 Can I just say, I am a very big fan of Bill Pitt. 457 00:26:59,740 --> 00:27:01,220 No, it's Brad Pitt. 458 00:27:02,220 --> 00:27:03,220 It's Brad Pitt. 459 00:27:03,300 --> 00:27:04,300 Oh, boy. 460 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,860 It's Brad Pitt. Oh, no. 461 00:27:18,539 --> 00:27:23,240 Just before we hear about Brad Pitt, we asked him to be on the show. He sent us 462 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:28,500 this. So whom it may concern... How did you get in touch with Brad Pitt? 463 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,360 You can imagine my excitement when I got your email asking me to share a message 464 00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:34,360 from Jim Jefferies. 465 00:27:34,900 --> 00:27:37,620 You'll have to imagine, because there was none. 466 00:27:38,679 --> 00:27:42,680 Going on Jim's show was the biggest regret of my life and I was in Legends 467 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:43,680 the Fall. 468 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,880 No regards, Brad Pitt. Anyway, that's from Brad. 469 00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:51,520 How did you meet him? How did you get him on your show? 470 00:27:52,700 --> 00:27:58,340 Brad came to one of my shows, my stand -up shows during COVID because he could 471 00:27:58,340 --> 00:27:59,340 wear a face mask. 472 00:27:59,550 --> 00:28:03,510 Because COVID was happening. So he walked into the room. He walked all the 473 00:28:03,510 --> 00:28:06,570 down the aisle. And then he sat in the front row and took his mask off. And no 474 00:28:06,570 --> 00:28:08,390 one knew Brad Pitt. Did you know it was Brad Pitt? 475 00:28:08,650 --> 00:28:10,610 Yeah, I had an erection the whole time. 476 00:28:12,790 --> 00:28:19,190 So then Brad said he'd be on my show as the weatherman. And if you cut back to 477 00:28:19,190 --> 00:28:23,330 that picture of him in the linen suit, that was the suit that he wore, right? 478 00:28:23,330 --> 00:28:27,870 that was the Italian linen suit. He did the show four times. Then my show gets 479 00:28:27,870 --> 00:28:28,870 cancelled. 480 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,640 Why? Because everything does. 481 00:28:32,940 --> 00:28:34,440 You'll find out in three episodes. 482 00:28:37,620 --> 00:28:38,620 Anyway, 483 00:28:39,540 --> 00:28:41,040 so... That's hopeful. 484 00:28:41,260 --> 00:28:46,260 So they're clearing out my office and literally they've got like the razor 485 00:28:46,260 --> 00:28:49,000 blades scraping my name off the door, off the glass window, right? 486 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:54,000 And one of the girls from wardrobe comes in and she goes, I have Brad Pitt's 487 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,780 suit. I could take it over to his house if you like. 488 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,060 And I'm like this, oh, I'll take it, like that, right? Because I still get 489 00:29:01,060 --> 00:29:05,440 starstruck around Brad, right? And so I ring Brad up and I said, oh, Brad, I've 490 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,760 got your suit. Would you like me to bring it over? And he said, just give it 491 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:09,760 charity. 492 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,400 Like, fuck, I was going to do it. 493 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,040 To charity. 494 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,100 I'm a little bit larger than Brad. I don't have the same physique. 495 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:21,000 I put the suit on. I'm standing in my room. I look like Pee Wee Herman, the 496 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,000 sleeve. 497 00:29:22,260 --> 00:29:23,260 I'm in a little suit. 498 00:29:23,380 --> 00:29:28,540 It didn't fit me, but I packed it all up. And for Christmas under the tree, I 499 00:29:28,540 --> 00:29:32,860 had Brad Pitt's suit. And I gave it to my then 80 -year -old father. And I 500 00:29:32,940 --> 00:29:36,760 there you go. There's a suit. And it fit him perfectly. And I go, Dad, that's 501 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:37,760 Brad Pitt's suit. 502 00:29:37,980 --> 00:29:39,800 And my dad goes, who's Brad Pitt? 503 00:29:41,610 --> 00:29:45,190 And I show him the photo on my phone and I go, there he is wearing the suit, 504 00:29:45,290 --> 00:29:50,510 right? And he goes, get me a laminated version of that photo to fit in the top 505 00:29:50,510 --> 00:29:51,830 breast pocket, right? 506 00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:55,990 My dad doesn't have a phone or anything like that. So now when he takes women on 507 00:29:55,990 --> 00:30:00,570 dates, he wears the Brad Pitt suit. 508 00:30:00,970 --> 00:30:04,670 And he goes, if they start to lose interest, I bloody whip it out. 509 00:30:05,590 --> 00:30:09,210 I whip it out. He goes, and they're back in. And he goes, and you know what? 510 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,200 They always know who he is. 511 00:30:12,660 --> 00:30:13,660 That is right. 512 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,700 Now, the other thing, Leper, or Linda in your case, referred to was your 513 00:30:20,700 --> 00:30:23,780 cosmetic surgery. He said you had more plastic than a credit card. True or 514 00:30:23,780 --> 00:30:24,780 false? You've had some work done. 515 00:30:27,669 --> 00:30:28,669 I've had the teeth. 516 00:30:29,130 --> 00:30:32,850 You needed them done because they were punched in. I've had a hair transplant 517 00:30:32,850 --> 00:30:33,850 that didn't really take. 518 00:30:34,550 --> 00:30:37,590 I'll do another one of them because this is all smoke and mirrors. 519 00:30:37,790 --> 00:30:41,830 The production crew over there have done more work on me than they had do on 520 00:30:41,830 --> 00:30:42,830 Avatar. 521 00:30:43,570 --> 00:30:46,950 And I had lipo on the chin. But don't worry about it. 522 00:30:47,310 --> 00:30:51,570 They took a little pocket out there and I had a penis reduction. 523 00:30:54,220 --> 00:30:57,780 It was necessary. Well, you've got the big ones out of the way. 524 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,600 So, Mick, you have had some work. 525 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:06,880 I've had two chins added, and I've got fake love handles. But that's by the by. 526 00:31:07,380 --> 00:31:09,100 How's our friend from Manchester going? 527 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,940 Are you loosening up a bit? You're still staying a bit. 528 00:31:12,260 --> 00:31:13,940 Well, he looks like he's seething. Jesus. 529 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,560 I don't know what you've done here.

We've had some friends and some colleagues, 535 00:31:52,630 --> 00:31:55,110 but we'd like to... We haven't gone deep enough. I feel like we've gone deep 536 00:31:55,110 --> 00:31:59,270 enough. We'd like to get some family involved, and we thought we'd hear from 537 00:31:59,270 --> 00:32:01,370 your wonderful wife, Daisy. 538 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,000 Hi, everybody. 539 00:32:03,100 --> 00:32:07,100 Jim needs an intervention for his fear of bananas. 540 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:12,580 He doesn't just, like, hate the idea of eating a banana. 541 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,660 He can't physically be near a banana. 542 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,840 He can't be in a room with, like, banana wallpaper. 543 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,040 And that's been my dream for so long, to have a room covered in banana 544 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,880 wallpaper. I would also like to enjoy a banoffee pie with him. 545 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,720 And I think he would actually like banana if he tried it. I don't think 546 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:38,200 even ever tasted it. He's just repulsed by them. So please help him overcome his 547 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,360 fear of bananas. 548 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,100 All right. Now, hang on. 549 00:32:42,700 --> 00:32:47,140 Just before we get to that, can we address the elephant in the room? Yes. 550 00:32:47,140 --> 00:32:50,160 are batting way out of your league. What is going on there? 551 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,360 It's not funny. It's beautiful. Daisy is amazing. 552 00:32:54,660 --> 00:33:00,420 How? How did you reign that? What did you pull? What card did you play to get 553 00:33:00,420 --> 00:33:06,120 that woman to fall in love with this? I met my wife on a dating app, as many 554 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,560 people do, or many people met her. 555 00:33:09,260 --> 00:33:14,460 I met my wife on a dating app, and I went on one date with her, and it went 556 00:33:14,460 --> 00:33:17,920 okay. And my wife's obviously British. 557 00:33:19,309 --> 00:33:23,390 and we were going out in L .A., and she was, like, into me, but not really. 558 00:33:23,610 --> 00:33:26,730 I wasn't going to get a second date. She liked me. She thought I was nice 559 00:33:26,730 --> 00:33:32,370 enough. And then I told her that I gave Piers Morgan the finger on the Bill 560 00:33:32,370 --> 00:33:36,430 Maher show, which I did. I was all drunk and maybe other things, and I got 561 00:33:36,430 --> 00:33:42,510 really overexcited on live TV, and I went, and Piers Morgan. 562 00:33:42,710 --> 00:33:45,510 Well, hang on a second. We've got that footage right here. Let's take a look. 563 00:33:58,410 --> 00:34:02,990 And so what happened was, it was during Trump's first bit of his administration, 564 00:34:03,130 --> 00:34:06,570 he started banning certain people from coming in to the country and all that 565 00:34:06,570 --> 00:34:10,630 type of stuff. And I said, I went, I went, I'm like, this is really Hitler 566 00:34:10,630 --> 00:34:15,830 stuff. And then Pierce clutched his pearls and he said, how dare you? I gave 567 00:34:15,830 --> 00:34:20,230 Pierce the finger and then my wife, I told her the story and she goes, oh, I 568 00:34:20,230 --> 00:34:24,750 watched that. I watched that. And she rang her mum up and she goes, she goes, 569 00:34:24,850 --> 00:34:27,190 mummy, because that's how British people talk. 570 00:34:28,010 --> 00:34:32,270 She goes, Mummy, she goes, I'm with the guy who told Piers Morgan to fuck off. 571 00:34:33,850 --> 00:34:35,469 And that's what you say online. 572 00:34:35,710 --> 00:34:36,870 Love at first finger. 573 00:34:37,389 --> 00:34:38,389 Now, 574 00:34:40,810 --> 00:34:44,630 let's tack on into it. Bananas. What's the deal with bananas? 575 00:34:45,050 --> 00:34:47,449 I don't. Why do you hate bananas? I don't. 576 00:34:47,929 --> 00:34:51,389 If we had bananas here, how would you be upset? 577 00:34:51,590 --> 00:34:55,170 No, I don't. I'm not scared of bananas. I just don't like to be in the same. 578 00:34:56,270 --> 00:34:58,050 I don't like to be in the... Would that be a problem? 579 00:34:59,190 --> 00:35:00,190 Sorry. 580 00:35:02,550 --> 00:35:07,490 That's a... It's exposure therapy. It's exposure therapy. 581 00:35:08,530 --> 00:35:09,530 No, 582 00:35:09,810 --> 00:35:11,530 that really does quite upset me. 583 00:35:12,590 --> 00:35:13,590 It's not. 584 00:35:14,630 --> 00:35:15,630 Look. 585 00:35:17,710 --> 00:35:19,050 It's upsetting me now. 586 00:35:21,470 --> 00:35:24,190 It's got the black dots on the bloody thing. 587 00:35:25,250 --> 00:35:28,690 It's bruised. A green one I can handle. 588 00:35:29,350 --> 00:35:31,370 What about lolly bananas? 589 00:35:31,850 --> 00:35:33,910 I've never eaten one of those. You've never eaten one of those? 590 00:35:34,170 --> 00:35:36,650 I'm not eating one of them. Get the fuck out of here. 591 00:35:37,710 --> 00:35:43,670 I once had a banana paddle pop by mistake, thinking it was a vanilla one. 592 00:35:43,670 --> 00:35:45,970 never eaten a banana. Oh, God. 593 00:35:48,230 --> 00:35:50,710 Has that been above me the whole time? That's the whole time. 594 00:35:50,990 --> 00:35:52,830 The banana of Damocles. 595 00:35:54,250 --> 00:35:55,250 Banana boat. 596 00:35:55,310 --> 00:35:56,310 Yeah, I'm all right with that. 597 00:35:56,870 --> 00:36:00,170 I'm all right with that because I'm pale. I have to put up with something. 598 00:36:00,490 --> 00:36:03,050 What if we showed you a picture of Bananarama? 599 00:36:04,910 --> 00:36:08,230 Is that difficult for you? No, I'm all right with Bananarama. 600 00:36:09,150 --> 00:36:10,150 Hello. 601 00:36:12,350 --> 00:36:13,770 It's Tom the Fruit -erer. 602 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:16,760 What about the big banana? 603 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,480 Would you ever go take part in the big banana? My parents would go to the big 604 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,480 banana. I'd stay outside the big banana. I've never walked through the big 605 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,620 banana. Is it a terror? I feel really sick now. I honestly feel quite uneasy 606 00:36:27,620 --> 00:36:28,640 about the whole thing. You know what? 607 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:30,720 Don't peel it. Don't peel it. 608 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,040 Don't do it. 609 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,620 I'm not. I'm not. 610 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,320 I'm not. 611 00:36:38,380 --> 00:36:40,160 Stop it. 612 00:36:40,780 --> 00:36:44,200 Please. No, put it away. I'm not. No, I'm not. 613 00:36:47,630 --> 00:36:48,630 It's going away. 614 00:36:49,950 --> 00:36:51,190 It's the peeling. 615 00:36:51,550 --> 00:36:54,990 That's what we'll do, Tim. We'll go to a break. We'll sort this out. Back with 616 00:36:54,990 --> 00:36:56,370 more intervention in just a moment. 617 00:37:06,770 --> 00:37:13,150 Welcome back to another celebrity 618 00:37:13,150 --> 00:37:17,860 intervention where we've just found out that... Jim Jefferies has a phobia about 619 00:37:17,860 --> 00:37:22,700 bananas. And by the way, can I just say to our bloke from Manchester, in the 620 00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:25,320 future you don't have to punch him in the face. You can just peel a banana and 621 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:26,320 chuck it. 622 00:37:26,740 --> 00:37:31,080 Do you remember that sketch, that Monty Python sketch? What do you do if someone 623 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:32,600 attacks you with a banana? Like that. 624 00:37:32,820 --> 00:37:34,000 That's fucking terrifying. 625 00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:38,800 Now, we're moving on. You also told us in the break, that was genuine. Yeah, 626 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,580 when he peeled it, I was all right with that one. 627 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,780 And I was all right with the sweets. I was all right with the syntheticness of 628 00:37:44,780 --> 00:37:49,210 it. But, no, when he peeled it, and it had a brown spot at the top of it. 629 00:37:50,030 --> 00:37:54,510 And I saw it from a... Can we move on? We're nearly done here, but there's one 630 00:37:54,510 --> 00:37:56,750 more big topic. What's your beef with the village people? 631 00:37:57,490 --> 00:38:00,910 What is your beef with the village people? I don't have a problem with the 632 00:38:00,910 --> 00:38:03,610 village people. The village people have a problem with me. So tell us what 633 00:38:03,610 --> 00:38:08,570 happened. Why are you guys getting to court? I was doing my podcast and Trump 634 00:38:08,570 --> 00:38:12,170 was having his inauguration and the village people played at the 635 00:38:12,170 --> 00:38:17,330 and Trump did that dance that looks like he has two guys standing either side of 636 00:38:17,330 --> 00:38:18,670 him. The banana dance. Two bananas. 637 00:38:18,970 --> 00:38:19,970 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 638 00:38:21,190 --> 00:38:22,210 Coming in pairs. 639 00:38:24,770 --> 00:38:26,130 7 .30 time slot. 640 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:27,759 7 .30. 641 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:32,720 So the village people said, isn't it funny that all these right -wing 642 00:38:32,720 --> 00:38:38,740 evangelical Christians are dancing to the YMCA, a song about men having sex in 643 00:38:38,740 --> 00:38:44,640 the showers? But that song slaps. It's a banger. It's a banger. I love it. So I 644 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:51,060 said that the village people's music has gay overtones, right? The next day, I 645 00:38:51,060 --> 00:38:55,660 get a letter from Karen Willis. Karen Willis is a lawyer. 646 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,480 Karen Willis is married to Victor Willis. 647 00:38:58,720 --> 00:39:02,020 Victor Willis is the cop from the village people. 648 00:39:02,720 --> 00:39:06,300 Right? And now that he's getting all that MAGA money and all that type of 649 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:11,340 he is suing anyone for defamation if they say the village people are gay. 650 00:39:11,740 --> 00:39:18,460 Right. This is a hill I'm willing to die on. Are you saying that 651 00:39:18,460 --> 00:39:21,120 these people right here are gay? 652 00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:22,620 Yes. 653 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:24,560 You're saying they're gay? 654 00:39:24,780 --> 00:39:25,780 No, they are not gay. 655 00:39:26,220 --> 00:39:28,440 You're out of your mind. Even the guy in the chaps? 656 00:39:29,799 --> 00:39:31,300 Victor Willis isn't gay. 657 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,320 He says he's not gay. We have to believe him. 658 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,880 But I assume the rest of them are. And where have you left it? You're not in 659 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:38,880 court anymore. 660 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:44,240 So if I keep on saying that the village people have gay overtones, they have 661 00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:45,340 promised to sue me. 662 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:50,220 So I rang up Karen. I apologized to her. I said, if it's not about that, she 663 00:39:50,220 --> 00:39:54,240 said, it's about men going to the YMCA and playing a bit of basketball. 664 00:39:54,580 --> 00:39:56,020 It doesn't mention basketball. 665 00:39:56,460 --> 00:40:02,460 At any stage, it never mentions, you can shoot me, sir. And I said, all right, 666 00:40:02,460 --> 00:40:07,560 Karen, the YMCA isn't about homosexuality, but you have to give me 667 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,200 You have to give me in the Navy. 668 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,220 So she's got a problem with you, but she hasn't got a problem with Wikipedia. 669 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:20,500 They just describe it as a gay ban from Greenwich Village, which they refer to 670 00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:21,940 as part of a gayberhood. 671 00:40:23,740 --> 00:40:25,220 I've never heard the term gayborhood before. 672 00:40:25,460 --> 00:40:28,500 I'm going to start using that term all the time at gayborhood. 673 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:34,700 I'll just apologise right now to the village people. I'm sorry I said such a 674 00:40:34,700 --> 00:40:37,880 horrible thing about you. It obviously isn't true. 675 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:45,600 So... Can we have a look at that photo one more time, please? This is a totally 676 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:46,660 heterosexual band. 677 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,260 No gay overtone. No gay don't. Macho Man has no overtone. 678 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:53,980 That looks like my indoor cricket team. 679 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,020 Why don't they say Macho Man was from the album Cruising? 680 00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:04,920 I'll just say this. If it does go to court and you're in the dock and they 681 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,760 you how do you plead, you should spell out not guilty. 682 00:41:08,580 --> 00:41:11,480 We're going to be back with Jim Depp. We shall definitely tell you. We'll be 683 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:12,480 back in a moment. 684 00:41:27,359 --> 00:41:34,280 You've really done well, Jim. Jim Jefferies, of course, our special guest 685 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,520 tonight on Glen and Mick's Celebrity Intervention. 686 00:41:37,380 --> 00:41:39,060 How do you think you've gone? Have you learned anything? 687 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,320 Look, I want to thank you guys for setting me straight. 688 00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:44,000 It's been a big deal for me. It has. 689 00:41:44,340 --> 00:41:49,000 Mick, over the years, you've been a hero of mine. I've watched you on TV for 690 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,720 years. I've worshipped you as a young man. Oh, wow. You were literally my 691 00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:53,720 favourite comedian. 692 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:54,980 Lawrence, we worked together. 693 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,200 Glenn, you've been on TV. 694 00:42:01,260 --> 00:42:06,780 We come full circle. We come full circle. When I was a young comic 695 00:42:06,780 --> 00:42:11,650 in Perth, when I was out in Whopper and all that type of stuff, I had a gig in 696 00:42:11,650 --> 00:42:15,950 the Claremont Hotel at the top there. It was good because I had this gig, and I 697 00:42:15,950 --> 00:42:20,150 was out there flyering, trying to push my gig so I could get some stage time. 698 00:42:20,250 --> 00:42:22,550 Yeah, of course. And you were there, Mick. 699 00:42:22,950 --> 00:42:26,990 I was. I don't remember. You were as drunk as I've ever seen a human being in 700 00:42:26,990 --> 00:42:29,210 entire life. It doesn't sound like that. 701 00:42:30,790 --> 00:42:33,030 With a girl who was far out of your league. 702 00:42:34,330 --> 00:42:39,270 And I went up and I said, Mick, I said, can you come and perform at my comedy 703 00:42:39,270 --> 00:42:42,250 club tomorrow? And you said, ring me tomorrow, I'll see what I can do. And 704 00:42:42,250 --> 00:42:47,430 I gave you one of the flyers and I said, will you sign this for me? And you 705 00:42:47,430 --> 00:42:51,830 signed it, to Jim, make him laugh and feed him Froot Loops. 706 00:42:52,110 --> 00:42:53,110 Mick Malloy. 707 00:42:53,310 --> 00:42:56,770 And I thought, I've kept it for years. 708 00:42:57,510 --> 00:43:00,850 I've kept this bit of paper for years. Make them laugh and feed them Froot 709 00:43:00,850 --> 00:43:04,090 Loops. And I thought it was profound and maybe it meant something. 710 00:43:04,690 --> 00:43:07,630 And then over the years I've gotten to know you and now I know you're just an 711 00:43:07,630 --> 00:43:08,630 idiot. 712 00:43:11,220 --> 00:43:16,600 I'm glad I had an effect on you. A young emerging... Did you not have a moment 713 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,720 with him where you ate something together? 714 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:20,520 Oh, we ate? Oh, oh, oh, yeah. 715 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:23,700 You'll pay for this, Robert. 716 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:29,020 So Mick came out to L .A., right? 717 00:43:29,380 --> 00:43:30,880 Oh, you can't tell this story. I can. 718 00:43:31,180 --> 00:43:32,940 It's time to go. No, no, no. 719 00:43:34,620 --> 00:43:38,000 No, this is not going to make it. No, it'll make it. That's why I'm telling 720 00:43:38,020 --> 00:43:39,020 We'll tell it. 721 00:43:39,450 --> 00:43:43,350 I took Mick out to dinner at Soho House. I can get in. 722 00:43:43,890 --> 00:43:44,868 Soho House? 723 00:43:44,870 --> 00:43:47,630 Yeah, oh yeah. I took him the full nine yards. I took him out to Soho House. 724 00:43:47,710 --> 00:43:49,510 Now, I don't drink anymore because it's irresponsible. 725 00:43:50,330 --> 00:43:51,910 I just get high every day. 726 00:43:52,330 --> 00:43:57,490 So, California sober, as I like to call it, high and dry, right? So I took an 727 00:43:57,490 --> 00:44:00,630 edible. I take edibles all the time. I can handle myself with them. 728 00:44:01,090 --> 00:44:02,310 Mick, Mick took... 729 00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:05,140 Mick took an edible. 730 00:44:05,460 --> 00:44:08,640 He's there with his brother. He did all right. Mick, not so good. 731 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,140 I was popping them like Maltesers. 732 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:18,340 So we leave the venue. We go outside. We're going to walk off to a bar. As we 733 00:44:18,340 --> 00:44:20,780 walk out the bar, Mick falls into a hedge. 734 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,540 And in cartoonish, the legs are up in the air. 735 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:29,380 He's in the bushes. I have to get him back out. And I go, what happened? You 736 00:44:29,380 --> 00:44:33,780 fell into a hedge. We go up to a bar. And then Mick goes, oh, I like the old 737 00:44:33,780 --> 00:44:34,960 we're at. Let's go back. 738 00:44:35,180 --> 00:44:37,480 We go back. He falls into the same hedge. 739 00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:43,500 So he fell right into the hedge and left into the hedge to get his equilibrium 740 00:44:43,500 --> 00:44:46,380 right. We've got to go. What have you learnt tonight about yourself? 741 00:44:47,260 --> 00:44:52,240 I've learnt that my gigs are going to be really bad because audience members are 742 00:44:52,240 --> 00:44:53,240 going to bring bananas down. 743 00:44:54,220 --> 00:44:55,600 We love Jim Jefferies. 744 00:44:56,820 --> 00:45:03,620 I feel a stand -up, Jim, for this 745 00:45:03,620 --> 00:45:06,480 stand -up. I think we've had a great night. I just want to ask you... 746 00:45:06,750 --> 00:45:07,509 the audience. 747 00:45:07,510 --> 00:45:09,470 Do you think Jim's made a breakthrough? Do you love Jim? 748 00:45:10,730 --> 00:45:14,830 What about you, mate? 749 00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:17,830 I'm not happy. Here he comes. 750 00:45:18,050 --> 00:45:19,490 That's the bloke from Manchester. 751 00:45:20,510 --> 00:45:21,510 He's coming down. 752 00:45:21,630 --> 00:45:22,630 No, don't do this. 753 00:45:23,510 --> 00:45:24,510 Come here. 754 00:45:26,410 --> 00:45:27,410 He's got to go. 755 00:45:27,690 --> 00:45:28,690 He's got to go. 756 00:45:30,130 --> 00:45:31,130 Good night. 757 00:45:31,850 --> 00:45:32,930 Thank you for watching. 758 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:46,040 Well, 759 00:45:49,100 --> 00:45:52,240 you know what? I thought that went really well. I felt like I learned a 760 00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:54,600 bit too much about myself, to be honest. I'll tell you what I learned. 761 00:45:55,040 --> 00:46:00,500 It's fun to stay at the YMCA. We won't. No, Glenn. We won't be doing that. You 762 00:46:00,500 --> 00:46:01,780 want to go back for a massage, perhaps? 763 00:46:02,940 --> 00:46:03,940 Go on. 764 00:46:05,020 --> 00:46:06,300 Got the robe all ready. 765 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,860 Make them laugh and feed them Froot Loops.
