There's a lot of love for Mrs. Hine after the quiz podcast last episode.

Oh, he's there.

There's been calls for her to be made president of Australia, the Republic of Australia.

Wow, that's almost as high as being an unmade colonel.

How's it gone down in Adelaide, your mum's appearance on the quiz and her performance?

Well, the people that I, who listened to the podcast that I know, kind of already

know her and love her. So there was, you know, that sort of warm knowing appreciation rather

than it being like a revelation, you know, like making a big splash. For people who don't know

your mum, what was the revelation that she like knows a lot about breeds of cows or?

Well, they were, they were just sort of, oh, isn't that lovely?

And then amazed that she got some of the questions, I think.

But in an endearing way, the wonderful thing about all this, of course, is that mum herself was most nervous, just like we would be about any quiz, not aware that she gets a free pass for being so,

you know, kind of lovely and, you know, mummish, that we didn't really mind if she got things

wrong or right. It wasn't about that. It's kind of just about, you know, her in all her glory.

But she was texting me, as I said the night before, asking about the Ukraine flag and worrying

about that. And I'm like, mum, are you serious? Now asking about the Ukraine flag and worrying about that.

And I'm like, mum, are you serious?

Now's not the time to get interested in, you know, these kinds of things.

Did she, like, turn up to church, though, and, like, you know, lord it over everyone and, like,

you know, Charlie Big Potato's, like, yeah, yeah, I'm kind of a big deal.

Oh, no, no, she was very humble about it.

Well, I don't, sorry, I'll clarify that.
