We've got two Lous in the studio.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:01

Yeah.

Matty Johns· Host0:02

[laughs] Oh, Jesus, one Lou just ki- just bit me.

Cooper Johns· Host0:04

Yeah, and it's not the dog.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:05

[laughs] Sorry about that. Sorry about that, mate. [laughs] I got a g- gotta be friendly. [laughs] [laughs] No. What about we're on the balcony and you go, "All right, come inside Lou Lou," and I go, "Yeah, let's get into it."

Matty Johns· Host0:14

[laughs] [laughs] I didn't realize.

Cooper Johns· Host0:15

Talking to the dog, yeah.

Matty Johns· Host0:16

First name basis already. Given me a nickname.

Cooper Johns· Host0:18

[laughs] Get off his lap, Lou.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:20

Sorry, I'll get into my chair now.

Matty Johns· Host0:22

[laughs] Bring me home soon. God.

Cooper Johns· Host0:24

[laughs] Well, it's not the first time you guys... Isaac, we were actually just reminiscing on the, uh, car ride over about the first time you and Lou ever spoke. Do you... Dad wouldn't remember it.

Matty Johns· Host0:32

[laughs] Oh, yeah, yeah. We did it on the phone. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:35

Yeah. And it- I was very drunk ... [laughs] and you go to me, you go, "Oh, Lou, I tell you what, New Zealand is a very special place in my heart." [laughs] "Oh, God, it's got a special..." He just kept rattling off all these places. I'm like, "Oh, yeah. It's good."

Matty Johns· Host0:48

Oh, mate. Were you from Palmerston North?

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:50

Yeah.

Matty Johns· Host0:50

Spent a bit of time in Palmerston North.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:52

Yeah.

Matty Johns· Host0:52

We played a game there against the Tigers, and then A- Ansett, in the old days... Ansett was an airline that went, went broke.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest0:59

Yeah.

Matty Johns· Host0:59

And, uh, when we were, when we were over there, they went on strike, so we were actually, uh, trapped in Palmerston North- [laughs] ... for about five days.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest1:05

Not a great place to be trapped.

Matty Johns· Host1:07

And you know how we got home? How we got home was Alan Jones... Alan Jones was the coach of the Balmain Tigers, and he rang the Prime Minister Paul Keating and said, "If you don't get me home tomorrow for my radio show, I will just do a vendetta against you." And we got a special- Private jet ... dispensation to fly, fly, uh, to fly back to Australia.

Luisa Dal Din· Guest1:25

Is Alan Jones the one who did the chant, "Horny, horny, horny"?
