Annika: Welcome back! We have just had a break!
Luciano: We're back!
-
Annika: Or not? Have we? You wouldn't even
know?
-
Luciano: Did we have a break?
Annika: We're wearing the same clothes...
-
Luciano: Who knows.
Annika: Who knows.
-
L: It could be 3 days later.
A: Do you know what we're talking about - have
-
we just worn the same clothes since 3 days
ago?
-
L: Yeah.
A: Do you know what we're talking about? Have
-
you watched the first one, or are you just
really confused right now?
-
L: Go and watch part 1.
A: Mmhm.
-
A: We're waiting for you. Go.
L: We'll wait.
-
A: We're continuing the weirdest make thrift
buy suggestions of all time, in this new segment
-
called "Make Thrift Why?"
L: Whaaat?
-
A: Luciano is here, he hasn't seen any of
these -
-
L: Yep
A: So he is seeing them for the first time
-
-
L: Unfiltered reactions.
-
A: So let's get started on this first item.
[silence]
-
L: Okay -
A: [laughs] why'd you just stare at me?
-
L: [laughs]
A: [laughs]
-
L: What.
A: I - I think the joke on this is - is the
-
best.
L: Yeah! [laughs] I love that!
-
A: Yes, finally a swimsuit that allows me
to sneak a ham poolside.
-
L: [laughs]
A: But also, it looks like it's made out of
-
jeans! And like, who wants a denim swimsuit?
Nobody. But - I mean - there's so many things
-
about this - when you go swimming, and that
arm gets wet, it's so much fabric, it's going
-
to be really weighing down that side of your
body. And when you get out of the water it's
-
just going to be so heavy and gross and wet
and clammy -
-
L: [laughs] Mum - I'm really excited about
our trip to Cancun but, I'm worried about
-
what people will think about my one monstrous
lizard claw.
-
A: Awwww. [laughs]
L: And then - and their mum makes them a special
-
swimsuit. You know what - if you have a monstrous
lizard claw, just wear a normal swimsuit.
-
Other people - that's other people's problem.
A: Yeah, that's other people's problem.
-
L: If they don't like your lizard claw. Don't
cover it up with denim!
-
A: Nope.
-
A: Oh, um - so
L: [laughs loudly]
-
A: These are, these are by Rhianna -
L: [laughs] What?!
-
L: These are by a stoned, middle of the night
Rhianna -
-
A: [laughs]
L: "What if I chopped my tracksuit pants in
-
half?!"
A: I dunno, they're kinda cool. Because they're
-
so wide-legged, it looks like, it makes your
legs look like bones...
-
L: I love them because they, they get rid
of everything you want from tracksuit pants.
-
"Do you love the look of tracksuit pants,
but hate how warm and comfortable they are?"
-
A: [laughs]
L: Chop the middle out!
-
A: Do you wanna show off a very specific section
of your, your lower upper leg?
-
L: They also look like they would deteriorate
immediately.
-
A: Yeah, the edges are raw, as well, they
haven't hemmed them or anything -
-
L: Yeah, the edges are raw because Rhianna
made this at 4 o'clock in the morning.
-
A: [laughs]
L: Is why.
-
A: You think that she individually cut all
of them?
-
L: I think there is one pair.
[Both laugh]
-
L: And no one has bought them.
A: It's um, it's 114 pounds.
-
L: Of course it is.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Arhhhhhhhh.
L: I should clarify - if any of you people
-
really like wearing these things, good for
you and go for it.
-
A: Yeah, go for it, for sure!
L: Don't worry about -
-
A: Don't worry about us making fun -
L: - we dinkos think.
-
A: [laughs] Us dinkos?
L: We're just a couple of squinks!
-
A: We're just a couple of d- squinks?
L: Yeah.
-
A: I hope that's not an offensive term somewhere.
L: Oohh - I hope not. If that's offensive
-
in your language, I'm sorry, I just made it
up.
-
A: We're just a couple of dinkos.
L: Yeah. Of doinkuses.
-
A: Doinkuses. [laughs]
L: Alright. Next-o.
-
L: Awwwwww.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Teeny tiny little phone.
A: I don't know what this is supposed to be!
-
L: This is not clothes - what is this?
A: I don't know, someone sent it to me - they
-
said, please do this for a make thrift buy
episode.
-
I'm not - is it supposed to be functional?
L: It's amazing - like they're quite tiny.
-
A: I think it's for a dollhouse?
L: Ahhh. Maybe it's like, for - it's Barbie's
-
iphone.
A: It must be like Barbie's iphone.
-
L: Wow - they're quite incredible, actually.
A: Yeah. [laughs]
-
L: It looks like you'd have a hundred of them
in a bowl of cereal, you know it's like iphone
-
cereal.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Chomp chomp.
-
L: Yeah. Well - those are some real small
phones.
-
A: [laughs]
L: Not practical, I would say. Oh hang on,
-
I'll just google it.
-
A: [laughs] You need a magnifying glass. Put
it under a microscope.
-
L: Yeah, and a pin, to press the - [laughs]
-
L: Oh, come ON! I don't know why, but this
is the one that really annoys me.
-
A: [laughs] Well, I mean like the point of
cowboy boots is that they like protect your
-
feet and they're nice and sturdy, right?
L: It's for people in very very cowboy
-
boot-heavy areas, you know, it's for that one hot
day each year in Montana or something.
-
[both laugh]
A: It just looks like a really nice pair of
-
vintage cowboy boots that have just been - destroyed.
L: Yeah that's - that's the thing, and just
-
the wear - the way he is wearing jeans with
them like they're normal cowboy boots. This
-
dude was just like, argh, the tops of my feet
get so sweaty in my cowboy boots!!
-
A: [laughs] I think they needed to discover
moisture-wicking socks, rather than just cutting
-
up their boots.
L: Yes, agreed. Yeah.
-
A: So if you thought these shoes were impractical
-
-
L: [groans] Ohh!
A: [laughs]
-
L: What.
A: Get ready for a whole new world of fashion
-
L: What is it. Yeah. What is it?
L: Oh. They're -
-
A: These are from Gucci.
L: [laughs] They're $1800!!!
-
A: They're made out of goat hair, Luciano.
Goat hair. Of course they're going to be expensive.
-
L: they look like Chewbacca.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Both of them.
A: Cute.
-
A: I think they would be really uncomfortable.
Like don't they just -
-
L: yeah
A: Wearing wigs on your feet. It's like wearing
-
little wigs on your feet.
L: One rainy day and you'll smell like wet
-
dog for the rest of your life.
A: Oooff [laughs] you would not want to walk
-
through a puddle with these.
L: Or wet goat, I guess.
-
A: [laughs]
A: how itchy would your ankles be?!
-
L: mmhm. And yet - this person has decided
to wear them without socks!!
-
A: Oooh - oof - and rolled up jeans.
L: Again, I love the casualness of like, roll
-
up your jeans to show off your Wookie feet.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Well -
A: hashtag, upcycled. Hashtag DIY-for-life.
-
L: [laughs] they're made out of real Levis.
That is... a waste.
-
A: Yeah. [laughs] Well, I think that the rest
of the Levi's went into that hideous jacket,
-
the melted jacket -
L: Right.
-
Past Luci: What?!
Past Annika: [laughs] Yeah.
-
A: These are the matching shoes.
L: Let me guess - they're like $700. I don't
-
know.
A: Probably. Let's look that up.
-
L: I don't even want to know the price.
-
[sighs] Why
are all these things so expensive?
-
A: They're only - $69!
L: For - compared to the other weirdo jeans,
-
reasonable.
A: Ooh look, there's some - oh
-
L: Oh they've got -
A: Miley Cyrus.
-
L: Miley Cyrus wore them of course, I'm surprised
they're only $69 if Miley Cyrus wore them.
-
Bump that up to 600, don't you know how it
works?
-
A: [laughs]
-
A: Oh yeah. So these are $585.
L: [groans] Ohhhhh - as someone who has frequently
-
had to use electrician's tape on their own
shoes, this makes me very mad.
-
A: They're "Distressed Superstar Sneakers".
Don't you just - like - they're just acknowledging
-
how cool you are Luciano.
L: [groans]
-
A: For having to tape up your $5 shoes because
they got holes in them after you wore them
-
too much.
L: [laughs] I don't know what to say about
-
this. It's - it's a poor person costume.
A: Yeah, it's -
-
L: That's what it is.
A: Yeah. Look how grimey they look, like -
-
L: I bet it's fake grime as well, I bet it's
like $200 canned grime spray that they have
-
to spray on them
A: Oh and I bet that the canned grime is like
-
really toxic and hazardous for the workers
who have to make it as well.
-
L: What do the workers who make this - what
could they possibly think?!
-
A: That the world is f***ed up. Correctly.
L: hey! Hey! You can't swear!
-
A: I'll bleep it!
-
L: [laughs]
A: I feel -
-
L: These are comparatively tame.
[both laugh]
-
A: I know, after seeing all of the rest, you
kind of are like, ah, yeah.
-
L: [laughs] yeah. My, my standards have been
like -
-
[both laugh]
A: I think they kind of look like a, a welcome
-
mat.
L: Yeah. They do. Two little welcome mats.
-
A: Welcome - to my feet.
L: [laughs] They look like, you know what
-
they look like they'd be good for? You know
how you can, like I play that game with my
-
little nieces where they stand on top of my
feet?
-
A: mm.
L: And we walk around? That's what they'd
-
be good for. Comfy.
A: [laughs] Yeah -
-
L: If someone else was standing on your feet.
A: That's a very specific circumstance to
-
be wearing these sandals in -
L: Well, I'm trying to be positive!
-
A: [laughs] Like, wait, wait, wait. You want
to play that game where you dance on my feet?
-
L: Wait, I'll get my sandals.
A: Gotta put on my sandals! Gotta put on my
-
specific sandals!
L: They are faux fur, at least.
-
A: Yes, at least. Should I buy them for you
for Christmas?
-
L: Nope.
A: [laughs]
-
L: Buy me something good.
A: We're getting there, we're getting there.
-
L: What is - what?!
A: It's called, "Boobie Cutout Overwear".
-
L: well, the name is accurate. So -
A: It's just been cutout, and then just left
-
to flop.
L: [laughs] so, it's meant to look like you
-
were like, oh, my boobs! It's too hot!
A: So sweaty!
-
L: Too hot for a sweater! Sweater was a bad
choice. Give me those scissors please. Snip
-
snip snip snip snip. Oh, that's better.
A: [laughs] Basically.
-
Oh, pre-destroyed clothes. Just -
L: They're just - and they've left the edges
-
raw!
A: Mmhm. It's cool to leave the edges raw
-
'coz then it looks like you've done it yourself.
L: So strange.
-
A: I wanna see how much this one costs.
L: The choice - the use of the word "boobie"
-
is very illustrative, I think, of the logic
behind this.
-
A: $290.
L: [groans] Ohhhhhahahaaaowww. My gosh.
-
[sighs]
-
I feel like the target market for this is
people who don't know about the existence
-
of scissors.
A: [laughs].
-
A: So here's this hoodie as well, for someone
who doesn't know about the existence of scissors.
-
L: [laughs]
A: Oh - it's also called "Bust Out high low
-
hoodie crop top".
L: So the crop top is part of it?
-
A: No. It's just the hoodie. You wear it with
a crop top.
-
L: [sighs]
A: Wear it with the - with the Boobie's Out
-
Cutout Overwear!
L: [laughs]
-
L: I'm freezing - except my boobs.
[both laugh]
-
L: Like the rest of my body is cold and I
need a sweater and -
-
A: Hey, you don't have boobs! They get sweaty!
L: I - there you go!
-
A: I think these are practical!
L: Yeah! All these things are just like, a
-
magic act. I'm going to cut a piece OFF of
some clothing, now it costs more!
-
A: [laughs] yep.
L: It's like Tapas. So we live in Sydney,
-
and a few years ago Tapas became really popular,
but not like actual good Tapas like in Spain.
-
A: Mm.
L: Just - basically -
-
A: It was like, we're going to make the food
smaller, and put the price up.
-
L: Yeah.
A: It's Tapas!
-
L: It's Tapas now! And it wasn't even Spanish
food, it would be like, yeah we used to serve
-
fish and chips, now we serve it a little teacup
- It's Tapas! Eighteen dollars, please!
-
[both laugh]
L: We need to get back to the DIY spirit.
-
Cut your own clothes into pieces.
A: Yeah, guys, cut your own clothes up, for
-
god's sake.
L: I always cut up my own clothes!
-
A: Oh, you always cut like the -
L: I always cut the collar out of shirts that
-
have an itchy collar.
A: Yeah, because if you bought a pre-cut t-shirt
-
I would murder you! You know that!
L: That's true. And the scissors would be
-
used for a different purpose. Murder.
A: Presenting -
-
L: Okay...
A: The cutout jacket!
-
L: [laughs] Whaa...
A: So um, Luci, I was thinking - I was just
-
gunna get some scissors here,
L: No!! No! Leave my elbows alone!
-
A: I'm just gunna -
L: No, no!!! I love my jacket!
-
A: But don't you wanna be as cool as her?
L: [laughs] She looks so bored.
-
A: She looks pretty sad, actually.
L: She does look sad, she looks like -
-
A: No, lemme just cut these -
L: No - stop!!
-
A: But Luci, we can make this jacket, which
-
probably wouldn't be worth very much -
L: [laughs]
-
A: - we can make it worth like $500 or whatever
this costs.
-
L: [groans] Oh my gosh.
L: She has this new trend with models on websites
-
where they have to look like they've just
gotten some really disappointing news.
-
A: I don't know if that's a new trend -
L: Like, we're not going to Disneyland this
-
year. Take the photo now.
A: [laughs]
-
Again - it's poor people's costume.
-
L: Yeah, it is.
-
A: Oh, so here we're getting into -
L: This is -
-
A: - some nicer things, here.
L: This is just a slanket!
-
A: It's just a slanket!
L: I'd love you to make a slanket.
-
A: Would you like to look as cool as that
guy?
-
L: He looks happy. He looks too happy, if
anything.
-
A: Yeah, he's not looking like a sad model.
L: He's kinda giving me -
-
A: I don't think he got the memo about the
sad model.
-
L: [laughs] He didn't. He's kinda giving me
the creeps, to be honest.
-
A: Can you see this one?
-
A: I'll close up-
-
L: It's just like a - distressed -
A: Well, it's um, "moth-eaten", the idea is
-
that it's moth-eaten. It's just got holes
in it.
-
L: [sighs]
A: It's just like a nice sweater-skirt set,
-
that's been eaten by moths!
-
L: "Work faster, you moths!" [whip noise]
-
A: [laughs]
-
L: "We need to make a hundred of these jumpers!"
-
A: Those moths better be getting a good pay
- they better be getting a living wage.
-
L: [British accent] "Please sir, I have to
leave, it's moth Christmas!"
-
[both laugh]
-
A: I love the little accent you gave it!
-
L: "You know we don't respect your moth holidays here! Get back to work!"
-
"Keep eating those shorts!"
-
A: Yup.
-
[Both laugh]
-
L: Okay. Next.
-
A: This is a new hat.
L: [laughs]
-
A: It's $50.
L: This, as opposed to moth-eaten, is alligator
-
eaten?
[both laugh]
-
A: Yeah - equal opportunity, they've got alligators
at the factory too.
-
L: It was just dropped momentarily into a
vat of piranhas.
-
A: [laughs]
L: Oh no, my cap! I got it out, before they
-
did too much damage. [Phone noise] Bring bring,
bring bring, "Hello, Hugo Voss? Yeah, it's
-
your cousin ... Louie Voss."
-
A: "Oh, hello! Yes, hello I haven't heard
-
from you for a long time, Louie."
-
L: "I've got that new look you're looking
-
for."
A: "Yes, what is it."
-
L: "I dropped my lucky cap - you know my lucky
cap that I always wore when we were kids."
-
A: "Yes your lucky cap, yes, mmhm."
L: "I dropped it in a vat of piranhas."
-
A: "Ah yes - oh. Oh, it is going to be the
next big thing, Louie, we're going to make
-
a million bucks."
-
L: [laughs] Louie!
-
A: [laughs] Wait, was your name Louie?
-
L: Yeah, it was! But it's just - like...
-
Was that even his name? Or was it -
A: Is it Hugo Boss?
-
L: Was it Hugo BOSS?
A: Oh yeah, it's Hugo Boss. Not Hugo Voss.
-
L: Well, I don't know.
A: Who's Hugo Voss?
-
L: [laughs] We're just going to find his Linked
In or something.
-
A: Hey, Hugo Voss is a person!
-
L: Hugo Voss... [bad German pronounciation]
-
absolvierte eine Ausbildung als Landvermesser
in Wismar und...
-
A: I wonder if we could translate this. Oh
there we go.
-
A: Okay, Hugo Voss - Hugo Voss was ah - he
completed training as a land surveyor in Wismar,
-
[2x] and subsequently volunteered for military
service in Schwerin.
-
He was a hunter and photographer.
-
L: Okay...
A: So that's Hugo Voss.
-
[both laugh]
A: Alright, I think we're on our last one.
-
L: [deep breath out]
-
A: You ready - oh. Second-last one.
-
L: Oh. I take back my deep breathing. [Breathes
in rapidly]
-
A: Okay, so this was a suggestion that I didn't
really understand - and I was wondering if
-
you could make any sense of it? So this is
someone who said, you should make a peek-a-boos.
-
L: [laughs] Ohhh-kay? Like -
A: Do you know what they meant?
-
L: The game you play with babies to teach
them about object permanence?
-
[both laugh]
L: I don't know. I can't help you.
-
A: Damn. If any of you have any ideas - let
me know. 'Coz I wanna make a peek-a-boos.
-
L: Uhh - don't, don't say you wanna make something
before you know what it is.
-
L: Okay.
A: Alright, so this is the lucky last one.
-
Now, no one actually suggested this this one,
but I went on twitter earlier today and um,
-
the internet seemed quite outraged by it.
-
L: Outrage? On the internet??!
-
A: No. Couldn't have been.
L: I don't believe it.
-
A: [laughs] So this, here, um, is a Prada
- now you might be thinking it's a paperclip.
-
L: Correct.
-
A: But it's not. It's a Prada Paperclip-shaped
-
Money Clip.
L: [laughs] Great.
-
A: In other words, a paperclip for your money.
And guess how much it is, Luciano?
-
L: I don't know - a thousand dollars?
A: A hundred and eighty-five. Haha, a thousand,
-
come on. Don't be ridiculous!
[both laugh]
-
L: Ohhhh boy.
-
L: Cool. $185 - who has this much just wadded
-
up cash that they need a dedicated money clip?
Like, are there engineers working away at
-
the Prada labs being like, a simple paperclip
will not hold the money together adequately!
-
A: The question is, how much money will it
clip?
-
L: Yeah, I don't know. 185 bucks?
-
A: Yeah [both laugh].
-
L: Ah, that's depressing.
A: But hey - it's made in Italy.
-
L: Oh, well I take it all back.
-
A: [laughs] You love it?
-
L: I love it.
A: [laughs] Giovanni loves it.
-
L: Supporting the Italian economy.
-
A: [laughs] So um [clears throat] how do you
-
feel after that? I feel exhausted!
L: [groans] Yeah, me too!
-
A: I - I don't - I don't feel like - I don't
know. Maybe I'm just in a bubble where these
-
kind of things come towards me and I'm just
seeing the worst of fashion, but I feel like,
-
I feel like 2017 has been a bad year for fashion.
Or - fashion has just been trolling us this
-
year.
L: Yeah. It's not the - I have no problem
-
with the wackiness, which is fine. I have
a problem with the... minimal effort to maximal
-
price tag of all these things.
-
A: I have a problem with... most of this you
-
could just take a pair of scissors to a "normal"
piece of clothing and make it for yourself.
-
L: I know, it's - yeah. That's the thing,
is that it's this conspicuous consumption
-
like, "oh, I could have just cut my sweater
open, but I paid $285."
-
A: And another thing that really bugs me about
these is like, those sneakers. Like the -
-
L: Which - what - I forgot them already.
-
A: The sneakers with duct tape?
L: [groans]
-
A: The idea with those, those $585 sneakers,
I think, is to look poor. Is to put on a poor-people
-
costume.
L: Yeah.
-
A: [groans] Arghhh!
L: I'm not into it.
-
A: Not into it.
-
A: Uhhh. I feel... dirty [both laugh] I need
-
to - look at some nice clothes. Can you send
in nice clothes for a while please guys? Like -
-
L: Just make a peek-a-boo.
-
A: I do just need to make a peek-a-boo. I
guess.
-
L: Look - We're both going to go to the kitchen,
make a quick peek-a-boo, eat it -
-
A: Oh no, no no no. That sounds like something
else. I don't know what.
-
L: [Laughs]
-
A: Hey Luci, can you plug my merch?
L: Sure, yeah, absolutely.
-
A: This came from our first episode together.
-
L: Eh, eh?
-
Eh? Eh?
-
Eh? Eh? Eh?
-
A: You're doing a great job of plugging my
merch by just going, eh? Eh? Eh?
-
L: [laughs]
-
L: Eh?
-
Eh?
-
Eh?
-
A: -- where can you get this merchandise,
Luciano?
-
L: [sadly] Mmmm.
-
[happily] Ahhh!
-
A: [laughs]
-
A: Oh, hey Luci! Cool patch - where did you
get it from?
-
L: Hey, who are you?
-
[both laugh]
-
A: I'm just a friendly stranger.
-
L: Well, thank you for inquiring after my
-
patch. It's my favourite thing I own.
-
A: Oh, is it? Can I have a look at it? It's great!
-
It says - don't tell them about the robo-sharks!
-
L: Huh.
A: Where did you hear that quote?
-
L: Actually, I heard that on a fantastic youtube
channel.
-
A: What is that called?
-
L: V Sauce!
-
[both laugh]
-
L: It's Annika Victoria, a quote, for the in-crowd.
-
Past Luci: Mmhm, and some of them are robo-sharks,
mechanised.
-
Past Annika: [whispering] don't tell them
about our robo-sharks.
-
A: And where can I get myself one of these?
-
