Speaker 3 (0:00) When you put your body in the hands of a surgeon, you assume your doctor will do you no harm. I'm Speaker 5 (0:06) looking at the Speaker 3 (0:07) surgery board for tomorrow going, these people are f***ed. But when your doctor's in it just for the money, something absolutely insane happens. One doctor says, yeah, I did a lumbar fusion. My kickback was $25,000. And the other doctor's going, well, I only got $12,000 because I did a neck. This is a story about a massive web of fraud and deception. Dozens of doctors all over Southern California. A fraud worth over $1 billion.

Speaker 1 (1:00) Dad, I just want you to know you are one abnormal guy. Speaker 4 (1:09) Coming up. Where were we the other day driving along and there was a lady who sat under an umbrella and you just wound the window down and started singing at her out the window. Under my umbrella. I thought it said come on in for Pete's private store. Anyway, Speaker 5 (1:26) she saw me and she went, oh, Speaker 4 (1:28) there he is.

I was like, Speaker 5 (2:34) I can't do that. I will never remember that number. For the whole series, I'll never remember Speaker 4 (2:40) it. Speaker 5 (2:40) You Speaker 4 (2:40) literally don't know my number. Speaker 5 (2:42) That's because we live together, but I will never remember that number. Yeah, but all Speaker 4 (2:45) these years I've said to you, you need to learn my number. Yeah. And then it actually proved to be true the other day. You needed it when you were lost. I Speaker 5 (2:51) did, but it took me about five attempts. But I thought if I was in dire straits like that. I would have got there before the end. Speaker 4 (3:00) End of your Speaker 5 (3:01) life? Yeah. We'll talk about that later. Speaker 5 (3:06) So that voice note you heard at the top of the show, let's hear it again. Speaker 1 (3:10) Dad, I just want you to know you are one abnormal guy. Speaker 5 (3:15) Now, you see, that voice note was from Theo, right? Theo's nine. Can I just say it Speaker 4 (3:20) was a genuine quote Speaker 5 (3:22) as well? It was a genuine quote. I can't remember the context, but I'm kind of a silver lining kind of guy. So I'm thinking... There's not much Speaker 4 (3:30) silver lining there though, is there? No, there is Speaker 5 (3:31) because he says abnormal. I don't look at it as not normal. I look at it as I've got abs and I'm normal. That's how I would look at it. I like what you did there. Even though I haven't quite got abs now, I'm thinking, how does he know that? Yeah, but how does he know that? Well, he just sees you in your boxers all the time. That's true. But kids at nine don't know what abs are. We didn't know back then that you have to be completely ripped to have abs. He does. He said he's got a Speaker 4 (3:58) two-pack. If Speaker 5 (3:58) it's just Speaker 4 (3:58) flat. He always says, I've got a two-pack. Speaker 5 (4:01) Yeah, that's true. Speaker 4 (4:03) Annie said to me that you used to have a seven pack. Speaker 5 (4:05) Was? Speaker 4 (4:06) All these past Speaker 5 (4:07) tense Speaker 4 (4:07) words, they... Okay, I have seen a photo of you when you had a seven pack. Yeah, but... I'm not using tenses there. Okay, the Speaker 5 (4:15) way I'm going to look at it is this way. I know, I know that I used to have it. I know that, but... It's still there. Okay, even that, even that way you said it, like, it's sort of almost like, not a question, but it's almost like a still bit. It's got that little thing at the end. I know, but sometimes you don't want to hear it, even though you know. But I think... Can I just say, Speaker 4 (4:40) you were the one who made this about your abs. I did. There Speaker 5 (4:43) was no Speaker 4 (4:43) mention of abs. You're absolutely right. Can I just say that we've got some excellent quotes from the kids that we can drop in. And I'm really hoping that people will send their quotes as well, because kids are awesome. They just say exactly what's on their mind and they put it in the best way. But what was the context of that? Speaker 5 (5:01) I mean, I am pretty abnormal, to be honest. You Speaker 4 (5:03) were probably Speaker 5 (5:03) just Speaker 4 (5:03) doing your normal stuff. Speaker 5 (5:05) Because I do random noises around the house. Do you hear them? Speaker 4 (5:09) Yeah. Speaker 5 (5:11) Actually, this morning, funny you say that, I was in the shower. Speaker 4 (5:15) Yeah, I know. I was trying to do a voiceover and you kept going. Speaker 4 (5:20) That's why I had to literally come on, knock on the door and say, can you just keep it down? I wasn't doing that. I don't think I was doing that noise. You also scream in the shower. I scream in the shower because I turn it Speaker 5 (5:30) to freezing cold. Speaker 4 (5:31) So I'm one of the... But you know it's coming because you do it every day. Speaker 5 (5:34) Why do you then scream? Can I tell you what it is? I'm not brave enough to do the... I'm not brave enough to... Can you just do the noise Speaker 4 (5:41) that Speaker 5 (5:41) you do? Speaker 4 (5:43) Yeah. That's literally it. Speaker 5 (5:45) Sometimes it's more like... Speaker 4 (5:48) That was spot on as well. Speaker 5 (5:54) That's literally it. I think the kids are so used to it. Speaker 4 (5:58) They're used to your weirdness. Where were we the other day driving along and there was a lady, she sat under an umbrella and you just wound the window down and started singing at her out the window. Under my umbrella. And she was right by, she was right by, because you were on the driver's side. She was on the curb, under the umbrella, window down, and you started singing. I was like, oh my God. Speaker 5 (6:25) Can I put it to you this way? I Speaker 4 (6:27) was then Speaker 5 (6:27) putting Speaker 4 (6:27) the window back up again. Speaker 5 (6:28) Who wouldn't think that? When they see somebody sitting under their umbrella, why wouldn't you think of that song? Why would Speaker 4 (6:35) you actually put that into action to wind the window down? Speaker 5 (6:39) That's a good point. And Speaker 4 (6:40) sing at the poor woman. Speaker 5 (6:42) I'm going to be honest with you. I think on that point, this. Speaker 1 (6:46) Dad, I just want you to know you are one abnormal guy. Speaker 5 (6:52) He has got a point. It makes sense. Speaker 4 (6:57) So shall we talk a bit about our family setup? Speaker 5 (7:00) I'm the oldest by far. Let's get that out there right now. Okay. And the fact that I've still got black hair that no one believes I'm not dying. No one believes it. You know I don't dye my hair and I'm not saying I won't Speaker 4 (7:15) when it Speaker 5 (7:16) gets to the point, but I don't dye it. I Speaker 4 (7:19) do dye my hair. Do Speaker 5 (7:20) you? Speaker 4 (7:22) Yeah. Speaker 5 (7:22) Oh, come on. You Speaker 4 (7:23) think I've got a natural balayage? That's a word for you. What is a balayage? Isn't that something you do with a horse? No, that's dressage. Speaker 1 (7:32) I Speaker 5 (7:32) was close. You Speaker 4 (7:33) were not close. Speaker 5 (7:34) It's just Speaker 1 (7:34) arches. Speaker 4 (7:35) Is that a colour? Ballet arches is where you do like highlights, but you kind of like gradually blend them in because I've got really dark hair, then you don't get roots. Speaker 5 (7:46) Okay, Speaker 4 (7:46) but Speaker 5 (7:46) that's different. Speaker 4 (7:47) No, I do also dye it to cover the grey. Speaker 5 (7:49) Wow. I think I'm going to disagree because I've never seen Speaker 4 (7:52) the Speaker 5 (7:52) grey. Speaker 4 (7:52) This Speaker 5 (7:52) side of Speaker 4 (7:53) my head is just a lot more stressed. Speaker 5 (7:55) Come on. Speaker 4 (7:56) Anyway, we're going really badly. You're the oldest. Speaker 5 (7:58) I'm the oldest. Thanks for reminding me again. Then we've got Junior. What Speaker 4 (8:02) about me? Speaker 5 (8:03) Oh, yes. Yep. Speaker 4 (8:05) Hello. Speaker 5 (8:07)
