Tayla has a bone to pick with Marcelo as a debate on the size of prawns starts the episode off with a bang, then we find out how impatient Marcelo is when handed the admin for the team and how Sydney runs at such a different pace to Auckland before finally reliving a photoshoot that no one asked for.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is an iHeartRadio New Zealand podcast. See, just when
you think you're flying high in this industry, you still
don't get the lingo. Mate, go a long way to go.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
So, as everyone knows, I'm obviously the anchor of the show.
I get paid more money than Tay for this show.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
You didn't even say hello, So that's really bad anchoring.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
That's fine.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Sorry guys. Hey everyone, just.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
How I'm starting this week's episode. So I'm the anchor,
as everyone knows, because they can't do that.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
I just did there.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
So anyway, welcome again, Tay. How are you my love?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yeah? Well I was good until you drop that bomb?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
What bomb that?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
I'm not good at anchoring?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
You aren't.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
We've had proof in the last three or four episodes.
So that's why I've been put in this position, which
is fine. I'm good at it. Sixty strengths, right, six strengths.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
There was that one week I opened with the Kardashian
voice that was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Hey yeah, hi, Hi, I want to bring something up
with you.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
No, no, no, this is my bone to pick with you.
No no, So for all of those women out there
who have ever been gas lipped by a male, you
don't understand my situation. So last night, I said, Mussela
was at pilates looking after his body in the off season,
(01:27):
and I said, you know what I'm starving. I'm craving
prawn pasta. I'm sure Mussela would be down for that.
I'm going to make prawn pasta. I texted you something.
Can you bring prawns home with you on your hand?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
You did?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
You picked up some lovely brawns, Australian prawns that were juicy. Actually,
I've never seen brauns that week before.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
I'll get back to this. I'll let you finish your
gone okay.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
And then so you bring the prawns home. I'm starting
to devross them, and then I'm starting to detail the prawns.
So when they're in the sulga that means sauce for
all my non Italian listeners, you literally just pick it
up and eat it straight in the mouth. You don't
have to fart us around with the tail. So I'm
detailing them and you go, oh my god, why are
(02:13):
you doing that? And I said, I'm detailing the prawns
because you hate the tail on the prawns. I've made
noodles before, where I left the prawn tail on, and
you said, oh, it would have been better if you
took the prawn tail off, and I said, you know what,
I'm here for the feedback noted moving forward, I will
detail all brawnze and crustaceans. So I did that and
(02:35):
you go, no, I like the I like the prawn
tail and I said, hold up, boy, hold up, you
don't because you told me multiple times you don't like
the towel on the prawn because you hate having to
in the middle of the meal pick up a prawn
and take it off. And I get that, hence why
(02:56):
I started detailing. And now all of a sudden, you
flip the sweet because you're trying to gaslight me.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I'm not trying to get what is it?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Do you like the tail or do you not like
the tail?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You said your piece for me to say my pack, okay,
and which is fine. You know me, I'm a very
meticulous person in the way I get ready for training,
the way I prep and it's the same with my food.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Okay, you should cook them.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
So you didn't get into the specifics, all right, all right,
So when you're making a garlic prawn pasta, I like
the tail on.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
What is the difference? Hang on between spaghetti and a noodle?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hang on, all right, when I'm having a curry, if
it's if it's a prawn curry or your noodles you
make take the tail off.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Why I get curry because your fingers. My noodles aren't
a curry. It's just a prawn noodle. So there's nothing
on your fingers.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Because I want to eat that fast, all right, But
because you make the prawn pasta, the garlic porn in
a nice sigal, I like to get all the juices
out and the tails where it sits all right, and
I bite it off.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I'll get to suck the towel. Beautiful. That's what. So
you didn't even get to the specifics. So now I
put that into place.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Now you know now the other thing at the start
of this episode, you're talking about the prawns. If it
wasn't for me, the problems you'll be eating with the
size of my pinky. Now, let's how small you spend
the less money on the on the cheap prawns sale.
No it's not sale, it's cheap like it take.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Me later while we've got an extra twenty dollars in
our bank account for.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
The week my belly.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I rather twenty bucks in my belly because I want
to eat it properly. Be honest, were the big prawns
last night good?
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That remains?
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Was it?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Was it worth the money? Was it worth that thirty dollars?
Or was you rather go for those small frozen ones again?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Dollars? Four hundred grams of prawns. I'm going to do
a bit of quick math here. That's like a dollar
twenty a prawn, I think.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
But it's worth it? Is it?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I don't actually know. I just popped that in my.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Head, but it was a no no, Just answer my question.
Don't try to run mathematics.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
I feel like we could have found prawns just as good,
maybe like a bit cheaper.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Do you want to I call it to go fishing,
go divenation, Give me some prawns. That's not happening. That's
not happening.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
We'll give you some cash, not thirty dollars, but we
will give him some cash. Very's hard work. If he's
going out on what's his boat's name, technique technique, I
will give him some petty money, not thirty dollars, but let's.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Be honest, was it better or not? So answer that no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Because it's not it's so much more confusing than he
gets straight up yes or no. So me and my
father we have this thing where when we're in charge
of groceries or anything for that we we we like
the challenge of like, my mum will black and get this,
and you'll be like, tay, get this, okay. We like
(05:57):
the challenge of finding the item at dollars price because
more or less times, so say you've got you've got
Kellogg's all brand big box seven dollars, you can get
the same thing home brand four dollars. So that's like
what you're done. If you're buying the brand name, it's
(06:19):
the same. It's like it's like the pill. Like when
you go to the chemists or do you want They say,
do you want this brand or do you want the
cheaper brand? I said, well, what would you get? It's
the same thing, isn't it. Yes, look at the cheaper brand.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And I agree to a certain to a certain degree,
I agree, I agree.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Sorry, yeah, because the yes, what I'm saying is when
it comes to meats, you can't cut corners when it
comes to meats and those and seafood, Yeah, you can't
cut corners. I'm sorry, because that's you're eating that you
put it. Even with the lamb, you like buying cheap
lamb from other places. I like the butcher getting good lamb.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yes, I will say that, because I did say to
you stop spending money on lamb, like I'm sure Count
Wilwas has this same amount of lish and then we
got it from Walls. I did notice a higher fat
content because that triggered my heart burned that night and
guess what, I was up for hours and I was
sitting there going maybe that was worth the extra five
(07:13):
dollars of get it from the butcher.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
And that's what I'm saying. So there's I agree with you,
like with the other stuff, one hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
I do min in the home brand we picked. I
don't mind.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Cutting things and like milk, yes, and.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Eggs, I don't mind. It's all the same.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, And it's a no brainer, right, you're saving more
money doing it that way, But when it comes to
meats and seafood, we're getting the best.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
See. And this so coming back to my dad now
as well, because we're the same. So like in the moment,
we're like, oh, just go cheap, and then when we're
eating the cheap, we're like, it's all right. And then
if you go out or my mom goes out, you
guys are the same person your mama and like you
do the groceries or like for Christmas, we're talking about
off mic before Mom will go and spend a bit
(08:00):
more money than she usually would on the meats and
pulled away. She goes to the fish market and stuff
like that, and my dad and me are the first
people to go, oh, this is awesome suit. Wow, don't
you go? Yeah, what was up to you? We never
had this in the house because we cut corners always
hoping you and Sue don't notice, but you do.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
We fill the gaps.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, it's hard out there. It's hard. Have you noticed
we haven't had avocados in about eighteen months? Yeah, they're
expensive strawberries. After that time, we clocked the trolley pluntt
since because I can't justify because they rot within two
days as well, I don't know they actually do. They
(08:45):
go bad, And don't get me started because that will
actually make me emotional. Washing them properly, and I do
wash them it's got nothing to do with the rents off,
so nothing to do. I even shake them after I supposed.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You're supposed to wash them in like this kind of
liquid soda stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
It's it kills all the Germans. You never said that,
you never do that, but you've never said that, So
how I wanted to know is that assumed knowledge?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Well, if you want to buy shortbage, I just assumed
that you'd know how to wash them.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Don't do that to me. Fav run listening who can't
see his bloody head, He does see the most condescending
look at me, and you're going the right way to
misslap that smile raster your face. You've got a strawberry
your face. That'll be worth the freaking time.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Doesn't want to spend then, I won't be buying.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Any even frozen once like ten dollars for like five
hundred grams. I'm like, yeah, prob's not a.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
It's a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
It is a lot. I don't know where the world's going.
Do they just want us all to starve? When's the
when does the when do we reset? When does it
go so far that we have to reset? You know?
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Waning I feel like this is just a cycle of life.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It happened when we're young. When you're young, your parents
will to buy and that's too expensive. Now our turns
come around. We're getting we're older. Now we've got to
provide for our family to be.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
And if you think I'm tight, now, wait till these girls' earthside.
Oh they're getting home brand nappies. It's all the same. Well,
I gotta buy brand name fo boo.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Okay, pull your head in, pull your head in. I
really bought the Huggies.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, but what you think they last a lifetime? They're
done in a day. I was reading that fact you
need twelve nappies a day for one baby, so we
need twenty four nappies a day newborns. Yeah, so you
know how you get I've been buying one a week. Cool,
we're done for three days.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
It adds up, don't it.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yeah, not buying though, because we'll have to get those
on a plane, just because.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
We're not leaving those here and they're quite expensive.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
They are. That's why we should go that what's that thing?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
The wrap and then wash them.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, but that's a lot of work. You know what
did I dry?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Reach you would never do that. Try reach and we're
gonna put shit in the washing machine.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
But can I actually share a fun fact with you?
This comes from Sam Collins, our boss, our iHeartRadio boss.
He's a twin. He is a twin, so here's a
twin brother. But he's also a dad, right, and he
gave me really good advice. And you're probably not going
to take it on board because you're meticulous, but this
is coming from someone that's done there, experienced. So you know,
(11:36):
when you change a baby and you like lay them down,
but you lay them down on that like sheet, it
looks like a puppy pad. He said, don't buy the
ones from the baby store. Buy the puppy pads from
the pet store. They're the same thing, but incredibly cheaper.
And they're actually the same thing. And it's true because
(11:57):
when our family friends Georgia and Nathan came here to
New Zealand, they brought actual baby ones. And she even said,
like with Louise, puppy paths. If we're out and about, yeah, yeah,
and you just need something to change them, or if
you don't have a changing table and you need to
change the baby on the bed, you know how Luke
changed Leonardo on our spare bedroom and got shit on
(12:18):
our doner on our blanket.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Luke changed Leonardo on our bed and got shitn't on the.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Don Yeah, because he didn't put anything down. That's what
it is. It's just a changing mat thing. It's just
a protection.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It's actually smart.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
And Georgia pointed out Louise puppy passeeng shows, I don't
that is the exact same thing we buy from Baby Bunting.
How much of the other ones for the baby I
think Sam was saying, like they're the ones for pets,
like thirty five.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Dollars before I think I think we get like.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Fifty yeah, and I think for that same amount it
would be like fifty dollars at baby Bunting or something
like that. Yeah, So it's like it's worth saying the
fifteen dollars that's coming from dad Sam.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Well, guess that's some good advice.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Maybe this is what my calling in life is?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Cheat? A cheap moum. Like I'll find ways to find
like cheap.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Stuff, but I think there's things you can't that you
can't like for baby stuff, for baby stuff, so for example,
like their bottles you can't. You know, you can't get
cheap bottles. You have to get because you want them
to last a while? Do you want them to last while?
The clothes?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Are you for real? Oh my god? I just did.
We actually need to talk about this in an entirely
separate segment. I literally just bought like a closet full
of clothes of sheen. It's like this like this, Oh,
I don't even know. That's a big online, big online shop.
(13:48):
That's it's made in China all the stuff, but what
isn't And it's the same stuff you buy in the
saws but for mate, like I've got things for eight dollars.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
It's smart.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Yeah, actually stuff because they're newborn. They're gonna wear it
for one day, one photo, and then someone's gonna vomit
and go, well, that's not even worth washing by so
one cra so far.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, of course that's they said, you have to get
the proper ones. That's different, approved from the baby people.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah that I agree with the sleep suits. I wouldn't
cut cross on it because I need to have the
peace of mind knowing that they're safe and.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
The soroller has to be a nice one.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, we didn't cut. Yeah, because for I think.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Baby seats because you want them to be secure. Yeah,
I want to be secure.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Such a good dad with the stroller. I think when
you've got one baby, you like it's it's probably easier
to get a prem that is easy to steer because
it's less way. When we tried the twin prams, holy crap,
Like that was the first thing I found out. I
was like, I tried one prim and it was like
kind of hard to turn and swivel. And then we
(14:59):
tried the one that we ended up buying. Mate, I
could do wheelies with it with one hand, Like it's
just so smooth. So yeah, I feel like that because
I don't want to be bumping into walls and cars
and bending up the place.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And that's it. That's just what we want to do.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Because some people like those double prims, the double one
there one there, yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yeah, and I'm sure you'd get an easy steering one
of that as well too.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But it's too big for us.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Well it is when you've got I kind of drive
a car, so so yeah, it is. We had to
do that.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
It's not functional, right if you get the one where
they just double stack them.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, you can at least fit.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You can still go to cafes, Yeah, pay for walks,
you can get a place, you get shopping malls and
not feel like you're taking.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Up the whole.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah exactly. Yeah, especially me, Like I don't. I'm no
consideration for anyone around me. Like if someone gave me
a dirty like, well you just hit me with your premium,
You're like, get out of the way. Then saw me coming?
How could you miss me? I'm bloody jeep of babies.
I'm in the grand Cherokee bitch.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah what else? What else would you not spend big
money on for the babies?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Not spend big money on? Yeah, well nappies. I feel
like that's a huge way.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I feel like when they're young, you shouldn't buy too
many clothes anyway, you know, because apparently they grow so fast. Yeah,
so you don't want to be buying heaps the clothes
for one age. Yeah, two weeks later they can't even
fit it.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Well. I learned my lesson with Louis, our dog, when
he was a puppy. I went out and bought that
much crap for him, sweaters and knitted stuff. He grew
so fast, didn't even last all the winter that I
bought it for and that was like expanding stuff that
was from that was from a bootache pet shop and
(16:41):
that's a dog. So yeah, well that's okay. Don't worry anyways,
because I'll be in charge of all the spending. You
don't have to worry. I'm just saying, if you come
home and they runt out of clothes, I look at me.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Come home?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Why are they coming in the couch blanket? Don't ask? Works?
Speaker 3 (17:05):
That's funny.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Well yeah, so Marcella, as you're well aware now, I
have a daily FaceTime chat with mum every single day. Yeah,
sometimes do about nothing.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
What does she want?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
We cover heaps of basis and then what are we
talking about?
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Should she just bitches about dad? That's about dad? And
I just go yeah, So then.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Do you bitch about me?
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yep, yep?
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Really? What what about me?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Oh? Just the way you are, like you prioritize things
that don't need to be prioritized in the given moment. Examples, Oh,
there's just heaps. Like for instance, if the house was
burning down, you'd go, I'm gonna go get the car washed,
and then I'd be left to hose down the house.
And you go. But at least the cars clean tailor,
because without maning, no one would have thought about the car.
(18:08):
Things like that.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I'm not going to disagree with you here, dumb shit
like that.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah, I married my father. I've just come to that conclusion.
It was so much like my dad, Oh my God,
like like literally prioritizing a car. Everything has to be
pedantically done. You fixate on things that actually do not
matter in the current moment, and then if things don't
(18:35):
move along at your speed, you get very frustrated. It's like,
hang on, guys, the world does revolve around me and
what I want right now.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
That's so true. Yeah, I can't even disagree with you. No,
you know why though.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
I like to get shit done fine, but sometimes I
get it done far.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Sometimes we have to rely on other people, like businesses
and companies that are very busy, and they don't only
just deal with the maclon mon Toy Show or angel
Lo Lombardi show.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
This is how I see it, right, If my brain
can work that fast, other people should be able to
work that fast.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
That's the best way.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I think.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
It's a matter of that, It's a matter of hang on,
I've got six other customers that have rung before you.
Why am I prioritizing you?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Which is fine?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Yeah, but then when you've got me, when it's my turn,
do your job popularly.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Love, Like I've heard you once ring up a car
washing people and be like, oh I want to can
I get my car wash? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (19:28):
What time are we thinking?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Can I come in the next hour? Nowhere fully booked?
You can come at two o'clock this afternoon, or don't
worry about it. Then, like what they're going to go? Guys?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Stop?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Stop mysel Mo Toya is bringing his carriage. Throw those
cars out.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
That's what I hope. So that's what I hope.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
So like you know why, It's because when we lived
in Sydney. Yeah, one of my mates, Rennie, he owned
a car wash. Yeah, I'd go in whenever I wanted it.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Okay, well, Princess, we're in Tama, Kimikoto now and there
ain't no fucking ready here, so just do what normal
people do? You know?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Why too over here and I don't care. I want
to say this, No, no, I want to say it.
Everything's so slow here when it comes to that stuff.
No it's not I'll go take the car in.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I book it in.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
There's no cars here. Do you want to make money
or not wash the car? I don't care.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
No, it's not it's not slow. It's you come from
Sydney where everyone's got a poll of stuck up their
ass and everything needs to be done yesterday. That's not
the way we're going to raise our girls either.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You're telling me that I know, yeah, all right about
fast thing. There's only a few things I like to
get done, and it's all the admin stuff, all right,
washing the cars, paying the.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Bill, you are, Oh my god, if I like doing it.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
I don't like paying online. I want to go inside
the store. I want to go in the store with
my thing.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Pay it there so old.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
I don't want to play online. I don't want to
give my number. I don't want to give my CV number.
I'm not doing these things. I want to come inside
the store. I want to pay for it like my
mom used to do at the postal. And that's how
I'm paying for the bills.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Can I just say, because I literally witnessed this about
twenty minutes ago, you are. I rang up this company
and I was asking questions and they were and I
was like, oh, can you just give me a quote
over the phone, and they said, no, can you just
send us photos of what you need quoted on email
and we'll get back to you. And I said, oh, okay,
(21:34):
I guess if that's easier for you, then yeah, And
then I tell you and you go, stuff that, let
me ring them, So you ring them. Hi, I want
to quote for this, this, and this. Oh, if you
just email us, it'll be easier, and you go, I
actually think this is pretty easy if we just stay
on the phone and we just do it while we're
on the phone, and she goes, oh, I don't think so.
I think it'd be much easier if I've got it
written down in front of me and you literally go, well,
(21:54):
I've got it written down in front of me now
here in the boxes. So I'm just going to read
these out to you and we'll go from there. And
then you were on the phone with her for fifteen
minutes and then you go, yeah, see that wasn't easy.
That wasn't so hard, was it. And she goes, oh, yeah,
get did you get done so.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Business?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
No? But I yeah, no, I hate that crap. When
I used to work in a job back in Sydney,
and I was like an account coordinator in sales for God,
who was I even working for today? If M Triple
Am back then radio station in Sydney and like, clients
would ring and be like, I want to book advertising
(22:34):
during this time, this time, this time. I'd be like,
why don't you send that in an email to me
and I'll get that done.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I can't stand it. I don't want to do email.
I don't want to do message.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
But some people like me, I this is weird and
I struggled with this my whole life. If you were
to give me a number, like it takes me a
while to process and I need to see written down.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
You were the same as a lady on the phone.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Was she like that?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
She was like slow down, slow down, Yeah, I said, no,
you want the specifics. I'm giving this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
I think for you. You've got rid in front of you.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah. What she wanted to be smile on the phone
and say yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
She was giving sas there you go. And I liked
her because I was in the toilet. I was literally
sitting on the toilet while you were on the phone
in the room, and I was like, oh, I like her.
She's got crack. She's got sas to her because I
love when people give it to you because I don't
know if you're picking up that they've been rude.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
To your heart. Because do you think I picked up.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I don't know, no, because it's not that Yeah, I
knew you didn't know what she was doing. But you're
like so mature and like, no, no, that's okay, we'll
do it now. Like you're like, I'm like polite and
un phazed by it. So I take my hat off
to you. But anyways, back to the FaceTime chat with.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Marm No, I want to go one more thing on this.
This is what leads me to when I go to McDonald's. Yeah,
and if I walk to McDonald's in the in the store,
walk in and they have all these computers up make
your order.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't want to use that to make.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
These are the best invention.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Show to the front desk and everyone's looking at me
like I'm an idiot.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
All the work is. They're like they're like, no one
I know.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I said, yeah, come here, can you speak English?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Let's make the order? Come here. I want a double
quarter panic pickles. I want. I love to communicate with
people so different.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
I the day they got those chaosks in couldn't.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Stand it, and even the people doing there. Now, then
that is where headphones like they talk to they're.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Talking to their phones on drive through.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Drive through at the airport. I'm talking about when I'm
at the airport when we're trying.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Yeah, and they're always the business and they're walking around here.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Are you talking to every idea?
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Yeah? Well, can I just say I love that McDonald's
have done that because I'm one of those people that like,
if I see what ingredients can I add? I add
so much I'd be embarrassed to do that in front
of a person. Yes, that's weird.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Perfect example today, we got a car washed. Right. We
just parked it in a car park all right.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, there was a bloke waiting there and he said
to me we went to get we parked it there, right,
We parked and went to get a coffee, and then
we came back and he goes, are you going to leave?
He waited and I was like, yeah, but we're going
to get a coffee then come back.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
What's a issue.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
But we pinked our car there, so we can do
whatever we want exactly. I could go missing for a
three weeks.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
With his hazards on, and I said, mate, you don't
know how long I'm going to be. Yeah, what if
I'm going to do with ship?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
It was a full car park, so he's probably like,
oh god. But anyways, that had nothing to do with computers.
I don't know. When I worked for the airlines, I
would be a checking hit customer service right. And this
is what I used to hate because there's kaos machines
to check in yourself and it's faster. It's so much faster.
(25:50):
Use a friendly talk to. People would come up to
me and I want to check in for my flight,
and I said, oh, have you used the Kiosk? No,
I want to speak to you. I said, the kioks.
You're gonna get much more out of the Kiosk than me.
I hate me because I'm a bitch. So and I'd
be like, it's much faster if you go check and
get your boarding past and then just get your bag
tag and you can drop it off. Why do you
(26:12):
want to speak to me?
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Because I like to ask him if there's an exit
road seat for me. I always like I need some
more legro.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Are you one of those people that get any chance
of an upgrade?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Today.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yeah, we're to the fucking cockpit. That's what I used
to say. I hate that because I'd say, oh, are
you going to pay what you want it for free?
I do pay, no, I know, but these people be
like any chance of an upgrade. My friend told me
to ask just in case, because they once had twenty
five years ago they got upgraded to business class.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Yeah, we'll see that. I understand from your point of view.
In that.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
In that in that instance, I'm going up knowing willingly
to pay. That's what I can't say to the machine. Hello,
can I book one exit? And then it's gonna say
sorry out of No.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
I want to talk to people. What are people doing
at the airport?
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Then if you don't want to work, put every computers everywhere.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
It's a matter of time. No, I don't want to
do a New Zealand at International you don't speak to
one person until you get to customs because even bad
drops electric electronic.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
I don't mind doing all of that. I don't mind
doing the bag. I know how to use it.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Don't get me wrong, I should by now you are
every second.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You're not stupid. I know how to do it.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
But sometimes I going up to this thing and asking
as see fucking upgrades because they want to go into
the lounge or I want to go to the New
Zealand Lounge. And I go to them, oh can I
get it? And then the lady up there goes, well
you should have went downstairs and did it, and I
said why should we?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Then said what my arms? Bring it back up in
just change my cea.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Well, not all of us have a lucky of going
to the lounge, darlings. That must be nice.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
That's what I'm grateful for. We get that. Thank everybody
very much.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Well, back to the FaceTime core, he and Mom were
facetiming as per usual, and I said to her, I've
been speaking to a few photographers thinking about doing a
maternity photo shoot, just for me, not you, because you
don't like that stuff. I get it, we know. And
(28:24):
then Mum was like, oh, yeah, that's cool, Like what
are you going to do with him? I was like, no,
it's just more for memory because he's called be my
one and only pregnant.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Awesome.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Yeah, So she was like, oh cool. Do you remember
when we all went to get start so I'll take
us back.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
She did, did did your mother get a maternity.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Shoot, No, I wasn't. I think No, no's.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
So big now people think.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Media, social media, no one cares, so you don't care
about So why am I doing this?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Then? I don't mind if you do. Don't post that up.
No one cares.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I'm posting them. Why am I paying all this money
to not post it up?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
You just said to me, it's for yourself, keep it
for yourself.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
For myself to show every on the copy.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
For yourself in the whole one Instagram, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
There you go each word.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
So years and years and years ago. I would have
been about nine at the time, So we're talking twenty
years ago.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
My mom is nine this year.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
No, I'm not. I'm twenty eight this year. I'm actually
currently twenty seven. I don't know, just aging myself like that.
Twenty nine, that's you? Are you twenty nine?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I'm twenty eight?
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Okay, So we years and years ago, my mom took dad,
her Luke, and me for a photo shoot. Right. I
was so young, and we got this beautiful family portrait
done professionally done, and my dad looks amazing. He's one
of the best photos he's ever taken in his life.
I look cracker because how can a six seven year
(29:59):
old like I was just cute, Luke six, I was
six or seven years old.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Before you said you were nine.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
I was ballpark. I was toddler, todd love whatever. Luke
had a bit of heady shoes. His head's always been
a bit bigger than his body. But he looked good.
He bought it together for the day. Mind you, this
was before any of us had braces, so we our
teeth aren't great, but it's endearing. And then you've got
mom cute, cute, yeah, approachable. And then we've got mom
(30:31):
in the photo and a fathering shot of her. She's
big side part and I don't know what was in
fashion back then, but her hair was like a pixie
cut and flipped up like think of a Brady the
Brady Bunch, the mom from Brady Bunch, I don't know, okay,
like that, and it was like something you'd see in
(30:53):
the sixties. And she's hated that photo to the day,
and she cut herself out of the photo and just
redid it so it's just dad, Luke and me. And
then I'm when I still live there going through her
photo album and I see the photo of just her
and I start laughing. So I said, what was this suit?
(31:16):
And she's, oh, that like we did a family bought
it and I hated me, so I cut myself out.
I just left it there. I said, you do realize
if you were to die tomorrow, that's the photo we'd
use on top of your coffin because it's it's a
standalone it's like it's professional. And I said it as
your joke, but it struck a chord. And then like
(31:37):
the week later, she books in me, herself and Nonna
into renewed photos because she goes, well, if I'm gonna
prepare for my death, I better get my nonna to
prepare for her death like her mom. So we got
our three gals, and my mom's got a vision for
this whole thing. She's like, she really prepared for a
(31:59):
funeral shot where she's she's brought in a black turtleneck.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Right, did she change the fringe?
Speaker 1 (32:06):
She yeah, she she got her hair. She put her
hair up instead. Now so this is years later, years later,
and so she's explaining to the lady, or you know,
I want a photo that I can use for my funeral.
He's gone, Okay, I don't know if we we'll see
what we can do if you yourself. So literally, and
(32:26):
the photo is so morbid. It's literally my mom like
like dark, like creepy, like she's literally looking at the
camera straight face, big guys, no smile, like looking like
her eyes were worry. No smile, smile because it's a
funeral shot. She's not smiling at her own funeral. She's
I'm dead anyways.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
And then you can still she went from the photo
doesn't have to shoot the occasion.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
It can be a photo when you were happy, memories
of the family.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
So yeah, no, not so it went from being funeral shots.
And then she goes, well, while I'm here, I want
to do a few like risk ones to feel good
about myself, to know what I look like at the
just like sassy, risky ones. Cheeky, yeah, cheeky, more fun.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
What was she doing.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
French at home? Thoes No, not like that that but like,
you know fun. So this poor photographer's gone from doing
funeral shots to fucking adult only shots. And then they're
both at mom's house. And when I went to visit
just recently, like a few months ago, I was looking.
(33:40):
I was like, oh my god, Mom, we still can't
even use that for your funeral. I'm more inclined to
put the risk ones on a coffin to use then
the funeral shot because it's aged even now, because that
would have been ten years ago. So yeah, that's Sue.
She's headaches here on my to do list, take new
(34:04):
photos of mom.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Thinking about your family, the difference your family in my family.
Your family have to be prepared for every occasion. Who
cares when it comes? Tackle that on, make that decision
then and there. I'm sure you you know, and it's
sad for to be thinking like that when I die.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
You know, she's got so much to live.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
But I'm just saying, I'm sure when the time comes,
you're not going to be putting up a photo of there.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
You wouldn't do that much.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
When the times I'm gonna be fucking wearding myself looking
back at the photos going. I could really stitch her
RUPPI if I if I didn't believe in ghost, I
would fuck her up. But I believe she should come back
and halt me. So I'm not gonna do that. I wouldn't.
You know what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna put a
(34:52):
big photo instead of of her German shed with Ralfie
because she's got that many bloody photos of me, So
you're just gonna have Ralphie top of her conference.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
Can we stop talking about this?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah, it's weird. But anyways, while we're on the subject
of coffins Costco. You know how they sell coffins. Back
when the one in Casola opened in Sydney years ago,
my dad, me mom and my Nona went, I don't
even know if you were there, and we signed up
because we're like, Cosco is amazing, so not suited for
(35:25):
a Lombardy family that buy three crackers a week to
survive on. We don't need bulk. We really don't need bulk.
So we were walking past the coffin section and my dad
goes to my Nona, well, well here you may as
well pick which one you want, Lucy, and she goes, well,
you know, yes, I don't like tukey, I'd like a
(35:49):
nice white one. And then she's going through all the conference.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I know, no your family, that just everything's out there.
It's so good. I don't want to be talking about
that stuff.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
It's sad.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
We'll be buried together. It's okay, hopefully, What do you
mean hopefully.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Well, who knows. I might last longer than you. You
might last longer than me.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
So if you last longer than me, you're not gonna
go above me.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
Above you, Yeah, above you, I thot you mean right
next to you.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
No, we're going to pay for that ship, you much,
because for a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
I've always wanted a vaulting tone for the vault where
people can come and visit us.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
I don't want any want to visit me. If I'm
we here, that's it. No one come and see me.
I'm fine, mm hmm. If you can't come see us, now,
don't come see us with my dead. It doesn't count.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
People doesn't count.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
You can't go. We're going to talk to them.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Oh, I'll be in spirit. I've got people that I'm
coming back to haunt, and I hope it allows for
international trouble because I've got a lot of people to
see on both sides and news. I really hope God
allows that. Anyways, this is.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
Depressing talk, yeah, but they are.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
You know what, It is expensive men to remember when
my father died. It is expensive to sort of that stuff,
coffins and stuff like that. So I see where your
parents coming from. Well, I'm like your grandpress.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Ye, they've saved up for their funerals. Each they've got
savings aside, and no one's out of pocket for their funeral.
I was like stuff that, Lucy, who cares you gone?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
It breaks my heart that. But when I go, i'most
saving nothing. You're out of pocket because we look.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
After use your whole.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Yeah, surely our kids.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
You can for something out for U.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Actually, I hope soon a june counting on me and Luke.
Oh no, hope not Actually, no, you know what, I'm
going to apply the same mentality. They've blighting their life
cheap and the bare minimum.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
So can we get a coffin any cardboard boxes around?
Speaker 1 (38:13):
Oh? Still an anch have a pizza oven in their backyard.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
We could We could sit there and just talk about
all the good times we cook pizza.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
That been the first time that pizza it has been
used in years. They swear they go through phases and
fires up the pizza. Rathern does the same toppings every
single time. He said to us, And okay, so the
dose doo cook Dad, it's raw. He loses it. It's
(38:44):
like so insulting to him, the poor thing. He really
prides himself of that making.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
He makes good pizzas he makes a dove. No, he
doesn't properly.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah, the yeast has to rise. But my brother's been
saying four years. Can we have toppings other than ham
and cheese? Like we can put sausage?
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Can the tape? They do that.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
Don't don't go at him. He makes those and Luke
shut up. I don't see you by the pizza rather
than cookie, and you don't even know where to put
the dishes away.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
They actually just made pizza the other day, Chloe. They've
got another and as well now.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
They made one.
Speaker 1 (39:22):

One of her songs, Pills and Potions. It's one that

don't get the lingo. Mate, go a long way to go.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
So, as everyone knows, I'm obviously the anchor of the show.
I get paid more money than Tay for this show.
Speaker 1 (00:21):

I'm not good at anchoring?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
You aren't.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
We've had proof in the last three or four episodes.
So that's why I've been put in this position, which
is fine. I'm good at it. Sixty strengths, right, six strengths.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
There was that one week I opened with the Kardashian
voice that was pretty good.

No no, So for all of those women out there
who have ever been gas lipped by a male, you
don't understand my situation. So last night, I said, Mussela
was at pilates looking after his body in the off season,
(01:27):
and I said, you know what I'm starving. I'm craving
prawn pasta. I'm sure Mussela would be down for that.
I'm going to make prawn pasta. I texted you something.
Can you bring prawns home with you on your hand?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
You did?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
You picked up some lovely brawns, Australian prawns that were juicy. Actually,
I've never seen brauns that week before.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
I'll get back to this. I'll let you finish your
gone okay.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
And then so you bring the prawns home. I'm starting
to devross them, and then I'm starting to detail the prawns.
So when they're in the sulga that means sauce for
all my non Italian listeners, you literally just pick it
up and eat it straight in the mouth. You don't
have to fart us around with the tail. So I'm
detailing them and you go, oh my god, why are
(02:13):
you doing that? And I said, I'm detailing the prawns
because you hate the tail on the prawns. I've made
noodles before, where I left the prawn tail on, and
you said, oh, it would have been better if you
took the prawn tail off, and I said, you know what,
I'm here for the feedback noted moving forward, I will
detail all brawnze and crustaceans. So I did that and
(02:35):
you go, no, I like the I like the prawn
tail and I said, hold up, boy, hold up, you
don't because you told me multiple times you don't like
the towel on the prawn because you hate having to
in the middle of the meal pick up a prawn
and take it off. And I get that, hence why
(02:56):
I started detailing. And now all of a sudden, you
flip the sweet because you're trying to gaslight me.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I'm not trying to get what is it?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Do you like the tail or do you not like
the tail?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You said your piece for me to say my pack, okay,
and which is fine. You know me, I'm a very
meticulous person in the way I get ready for training,
the way I prep and it's the same with my food.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Okay, you should cook them.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
So you didn't get into the specifics, all right, all right,
So when you're making a garlic prawn pasta, I like
the tail on.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
What is the difference? Hang on between spaghetti and a noodle?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hang on, all right, when I'm having a curry, if
it's if it's a prawn curry or your noodles you
make take the tail off.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Why I get curry because your fingers. My noodles aren't
a curry. It's just a prawn noodle. So there's nothing
on your fingers.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Because I want to eat that fast, all right, But
because you make the prawn pasta, the garlic porn in
a nice sigal, I like to get all the juices
out and the tails where it sits all right, and
I bite it off.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I'll get to suck the towel. Beautiful. That's what. So
you didn't even get to the specifics. So now I
put that into place.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Now you know now the other thing at the start
of this episode, you're talking about the prawns. If it
wasn't for me, the problems you'll be eating with the
size of my pinky. Now, let's how small you spend
the less money on the on the cheap prawns sale.
No it's not sale, it's cheap like it take.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Me later while we've got an extra twenty dollars in
our bank account for.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
The week my belly.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I rather twenty bucks in my belly because I want
to eat it properly. Be honest, were the big prawns
last night good?
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That remains?
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Was it?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Was it worth the money? Was it worth that thirty dollars?
Or was you rather go for those small frozen ones again?
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Dollars? Four hundred grams of prawns. I'm going to do
a bit of quick math here. That's like a dollar
twenty a prawn, I think.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
But it's worth it? Is it?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I don't actually know. I just popped that in my.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Head, but it was a no no, Just answer my question.
Don't try to run mathematics.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
I feel like we could have found prawns just as good,
maybe like a bit cheaper.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Do you want to I call it to go fishing,
go divenation, Give me some prawns. That's not happening. That's
not happening.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
We'll give you some cash, not thirty dollars, but we
will give him some cash. Very's hard work. If he's
going out on what's his boat's name, technique technique, I
will give him some petty money, not thirty dollars, but let's.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Be honest, was it better or not? So answer that no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Because it's not it's so much more confusing than he
gets straight up yes or no. So me and my
father we have this thing where when we're in charge
of groceries or anything for that we we we like
the challenge of like, my mum will black and get this,
and you'll be like, tay, get this, okay. We like
(05:57):
the challenge of finding the item at dollars price because
more or less times, so say you've got you've got
Kellogg's all brand big box seven dollars, you can get
the same thing home brand four dollars. So that's like
what you're done. If you're buying the brand name, it's
(06:19):
the same. It's like it's like the pill. Like when
you go to the chemists or do you want They say,
do you want this brand or do you want the
cheaper brand? I said, well, what would you get? It's
the same thing, isn't it. Yes, look at the cheaper brand.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And I agree to a certain to a certain degree,
I agree, I agree.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Sorry, yeah, because the yes, what I'm saying is when
it comes to meats, you can't cut corners when it
comes to meats and those and seafood, Yeah, you can't
cut corners. I'm sorry, because that's you're eating that you
put it. Even with the lamb, you like buying cheap
lamb from other places. I like the butcher getting good lamb.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yes, I will say that, because I did say to
you stop spending money on lamb, like I'm sure Count
Wilwas has this same amount of lish and then we
got it from Walls. I did notice a higher fat
content because that triggered my heart burned that night and
guess what, I was up for hours and I was
sitting there going maybe that was worth the extra five
(07:13):
dollars of get it from the butcher.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
And that's what I'm saying. So there's I agree with you,
like with the other stuff, one hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
I do min in the home brand we picked. I
don't mind.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Cutting things and like milk, yes, and.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Eggs, I don't mind. It's all the same.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, And it's a no brainer, right, you're saving more
money doing it that way, But when it comes to
meats and seafood, we're getting the best.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
See. And this so coming back to my dad now
as well, because we're the same. So like in the moment,
we're like, oh, just go cheap, and then when we're
eating the cheap, we're like, it's all right. And then
if you go out or my mom goes out, you
guys are the same person your mama and like you
do the groceries or like for Christmas, we're talking about
off mic before Mom will go and spend a bit
(08:00):
more money than she usually would on the meats and
pulled away. She goes to the fish market and stuff
like that, and my dad and me are the first
people to go, oh, this is awesome suit. Wow, don't
you go? Yeah, what was up to you? We never
had this in the house because we cut corners always
hoping you and Sue don't notice, but you do.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
We fill the gaps.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, it's hard out there. It's hard. Have you noticed
we haven't had avocados in about eighteen months? Yeah, they're
expensive strawberries. After that time, we clocked the trolley pluntt
since because I can't justify because they rot within two
days as well, I don't know they actually do. They
(08:45):
go bad, And don't get me started because that will
actually make me emotional. Washing them properly, and I do
wash them it's got nothing to do with the rents off,
so nothing to do. I even shake them after I supposed.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You're supposed to wash them in like this kind of
liquid soda stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
It's it kills all the Germans. You never said that,
you never do that, but you've never said that, So
how I wanted to know is that assumed knowledge?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Well, if you want to buy shortbage, I just assumed
that you'd know how to wash them.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Don't do that to me. Fav run listening who can't
see his bloody head, He does see the most condescending
look at me, and you're going the right way to
misslap that smile raster your face. You've got a strawberry
your face. That'll be worth the freaking time.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Doesn't want to spend then, I won't be buying.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Any even frozen once like ten dollars for like five
hundred grams. I'm like, yeah, prob's not a.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
It's a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
It is a lot. I don't know where the world's going.
Do they just want us all to starve? When's the
when does the when do we reset? When does it
go so far that we have to reset? You know?
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Waning I feel like this is just a cycle of life.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It happened when we're young. When you're young, your parents
will to buy and that's too expensive. Now our turns
come around. We're getting we're older. Now we've got to
provide for our family to be.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
And if you think I'm tight, now, wait till these girls' earthside.
Oh they're getting home brand nappies. It's all the same. Well,
I gotta buy brand name fo boo.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Okay, pull your head in, pull your head in. I
really bought the Huggies.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, but what you think they last a lifetime? They're
done in a day. I was reading that fact you
need twelve nappies a day for one baby, so we
need twenty four nappies a day newborns. Yeah, so you
know how you get I've been buying one a week. Cool,
we're done for three days.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
It adds up, don't it.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yeah, not buying though, because we'll have to get those
on a plane, just because.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
We're not leaving those here and they're quite expensive.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
They are. That's why we should go that what's that thing?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
The wrap and then wash them.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, but that's a lot of work. You know what
did I dry?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Reach you would never do that. Try reach and we're
gonna put shit in the washing machine.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
But can I actually share a fun fact with you?
This comes from Sam Collins, our boss, our iHeartRadio boss.
He's a twin. He is a twin, so here's a
twin brother. But he's also a dad, right, and he
gave me really good advice. And you're probably not going
to take it on board because you're meticulous, but this
is coming from someone that's done there, experienced. So you know,
(11:36):
when you change a baby and you like lay them down,
but you lay them down on that like sheet, it
looks like a puppy pad. He said, don't buy the
ones from the baby store. Buy the puppy pads from
the pet store. They're the same thing, but incredibly cheaper.
And they're actually the same thing. And it's true because
(11:57):
when our family friends Georgia and Nathan came here to
New Zealand, they brought actual baby ones. And she even said,
like with Louise, puppy paths. If we're out and about, yeah, yeah,
and you just need something to change them, or if
you don't have a changing table and you need to
change the baby on the bed, you know how Luke
changed Leonardo on our spare bedroom and got shit on
(12:18):
our doner on our blanket.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Luke changed Leonardo on our bed and got shitn't on the.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Don Yeah, because he didn't put anything down. That's what
it is. It's just a changing mat thing. It's just
a protection.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It's actually smart.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
And Georgia pointed out Louise puppy passeeng shows, I don't
that is the exact same thing we buy from Baby Bunting.
How much of the other ones for the baby I
think Sam was saying, like they're the ones for pets,
like thirty five.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Dollars before I think I think we get like.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Fifty yeah, and I think for that same amount it
would be like fifty dollars at baby Bunting or something
like that. Yeah, So it's like it's worth saying the
fifteen dollars that's coming from dad Sam.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Well, guess that's some good advice.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Maybe this is what my calling in life is?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Cheat? A cheap moum. Like I'll find ways to find
like cheap.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Stuff, but I think there's things you can't that you
can't like for baby stuff, for baby stuff, so for example,
like their bottles you can't. You know, you can't get
cheap bottles. You have to get because you want them
to last a while? Do you want them to last while?
The clothes?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:26):
Are you for real? Oh my god? I just did.
We actually need to talk about this in an entirely
separate segment. I literally just bought like a closet full
of clothes of sheen. It's like this like this, Oh,
I don't even know. That's a big online, big online shop.
(13:48):
That's it's made in China all the stuff, but what
isn't And it's the same stuff you buy in the
saws but for mate, like I've got things for eight dollars.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
It's smart.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Yeah, actually stuff because they're newborn. They're gonna wear it
for one day, one photo, and then someone's gonna vomit
and go, well, that's not even worth washing by so
one cra so far.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, of course that's they said, you have to get
the proper ones. That's different, approved from the baby people.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah that I agree with the sleep suits. I wouldn't
cut cross on it because I need to have the
peace of mind knowing that they're safe and.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
The soroller has to be a nice one.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, we didn't cut. Yeah, because for I think.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Baby seats because you want them to be secure. Yeah,
I want to be secure.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Such a good dad with the stroller. I think when
you've got one baby, you like it's it's probably easier
to get a prem that is easy to steer because
it's less way. When we tried the twin prams, holy crap,
Like that was the first thing I found out. I
was like, I tried one prim and it was like
kind of hard to turn and swivel. And then we
(14:59):
tried the one that we ended up buying. Mate, I
could do wheelies with it with one hand, Like it's
just so smooth. So yeah, I feel like that because
I don't want to be bumping into walls and cars
and bending up the place.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
And that's it. That's just what we want to do.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Because some people like those double prims, the double one
there one there, yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yeah, and I'm sure you'd get an easy steering one
of that as well too.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But it's too big for us.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Well it is when you've got I kind of drive
a car, so so yeah, it is. We had to
do that.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
It's not functional, right if you get the one where
they just double stack them.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, you can at least fit.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You can still go to cafes, Yeah, pay for walks,
you can get a place, you get shopping malls and
not feel like you're taking.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Up the whole.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yeah exactly. Yeah, especially me, Like I don't. I'm no
consideration for anyone around me. Like if someone gave me
a dirty like, well you just hit me with your premium,
You're like, get out of the way. Then saw me coming?
How could you miss me? I'm bloody jeep of babies.
I'm in the grand Cherokee bitch.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah what else? What else would you not spend big
money on for the babies?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Not spend big money on? Yeah, well nappies. I feel
like that's a huge way.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I feel like when they're young, you shouldn't buy too
many clothes anyway, you know, because apparently they grow so fast. Yeah,
so you don't want to be buying heaps the clothes
for one age. Yeah, two weeks later they can't even
fit it.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Well. I learned my lesson with Louis, our dog, when
he was a puppy. I went out and bought that
much crap for him, sweaters and knitted stuff. He grew
so fast, didn't even last all the winter that I
bought it for and that was like expanding stuff that
was from that was from a bootache pet shop and
(16:41):
that's a dog. So yeah, well that's okay. Don't worry anyways,
because I'll be in charge of all the spending. You
don't have to worry. I'm just saying, if you come
home and they runt out of clothes, I look at me.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Come home?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Why are they coming in the couch blanket? Don't ask? Works?
Speaker 3 (17:05):
That's funny.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Well yeah, so Marcella, as you're well aware now, I
have a daily FaceTime chat with mum every single day. Yeah,
sometimes do about nothing.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
What does she want?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
We cover heaps of basis and then what are we
talking about?
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Should she just bitches about dad? That's about dad? And
I just go yeah, So then.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Do you bitch about me?
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yep, yep?
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Really? What what about me?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Oh? Just the way you are, like you prioritize things
that don't need to be prioritized in the given moment. Examples, Oh,
there's just heaps. Like for instance, if the house was
burning down, you'd go, I'm gonna go get the car washed,
and then I'd be left to hose down the house.
And you go. But at least the cars clean tailor,
because without maning, no one would have thought about the car.
(18:08):
Things like that.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
I'm not going to disagree with you here, dumb shit
like that.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah, I married my father. I've just come to that conclusion.
It was so much like my dad, Oh my God,
like like literally prioritizing a car. Everything has to be
pedantically done. You fixate on things that actually do not
matter in the current moment, and then if things don't
(18:35):
move along at your speed, you get very frustrated. It's like,
hang on, guys, the world does revolve around me and
what I want right now.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
That's so true. Yeah, I can't even disagree with you. No,
you know why though.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
I like to get shit done fine, but sometimes I
get it done far.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Sometimes we have to rely on other people, like businesses
and companies that are very busy, and they don't only
just deal with the maclon mon Toy Show or angel
Lo Lombardi show.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
This is how I see it, right, If my brain
can work that fast, other people should be able to
work that fast.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
That's the best way.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I think.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
It's a matter of that, It's a matter of hang on,
I've got six other customers that have rung before you.
Why am I prioritizing you?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Which is fine?
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Yeah, but then when you've got me, when it's my turn,
do your job popularly.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Love, Like I've heard you once ring up a car
washing people and be like, oh I want to can
I get my car wash? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (19:28):
What time are we thinking?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Can I come in the next hour? Nowhere fully booked?
You can come at two o'clock this afternoon, or don't
worry about it. Then, like what they're going to go? Guys?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Stop?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Stop mysel Mo Toya is bringing his carriage. Throw those
cars out.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
That's what I hope. So that's what I hope.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
So like you know why, It's because when we lived
in Sydney. Yeah, one of my mates, Rennie, he owned
a car wash. Yeah, I'd go in whenever I wanted it.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Okay, well, Princess, we're in Tama, Kimikoto now and there
ain't no fucking ready here, so just do what normal
people do? You know?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Why too over here and I don't care. I want
to say this, No, no, I want to say it.
Everything's so slow here when it comes to that stuff.
No it's not I'll go take the car in.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I book it in.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
There's no cars here. Do you want to make money
or not wash the car? I don't care.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
No, it's not it's not slow. It's you come from
Sydney where everyone's got a poll of stuck up their
ass and everything needs to be done yesterday. That's not
the way we're going to raise our girls either.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You're telling me that I know, yeah, all right about
fast thing. There's only a few things I like to
get done, and it's all the admin stuff, all right,
washing the cars, paying the.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Bill, you are, Oh my god, if I like doing it.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
I don't like paying online. I want to go inside
the store. I want to go in the store with
my thing.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Pay it there so old.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
I don't want to play online. I don't want to
give my number. I don't want to give my CV number.
I'm not doing these things. I want to come inside
the store. I want to pay for it like my
mom used to do at the postal. And that's how
I'm paying for the bills.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Can I just say, because I literally witnessed this about
twenty minutes ago, you are. I rang up this company
and I was asking questions and they were and I
was like, oh, can you just give me a quote
over the phone, and they said, no, can you just
send us photos of what you need quoted on email
and we'll get back to you. And I said, oh, okay,
(21:34):
I guess if that's easier for you, then yeah, And
then I tell you and you go, stuff that, let
me ring them, So you ring them. Hi, I want
to quote for this, this, and this. Oh, if you
just email us, it'll be easier, and you go, I
actually think this is pretty easy if we just stay
on the phone and we just do it while we're
on the phone, and she goes, oh, I don't think so.
I think it'd be much easier if I've got it
written down in front of me and you literally go, well,
(21:54):
I've got it written down in front of me now
here in the boxes. So I'm just going to read
these out to you and we'll go from there. And
then you were on the phone with her for fifteen
minutes and then you go, yeah, see that wasn't easy.
That wasn't so hard, was it. And she goes, oh, yeah,
get did you get done so.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Business?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
No? But I yeah, no, I hate that crap. When
I used to work in a job back in Sydney,
and I was like an account coordinator in sales for God,
who was I even working for today? If M Triple
Am back then radio station in Sydney and like, clients
would ring and be like, I want to book advertising
(22:34):
during this time, this time, this time. I'd be like,
why don't you send that in an email to me
and I'll get that done.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I can't stand it. I don't want to do email.
I don't want to do message.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
But some people like me, I this is weird and
I struggled with this my whole life. If you were
to give me a number, like it takes me a
while to process and I need to see written down.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
You were the same as a lady on the phone.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Was she like that?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
She was like slow down, slow down, Yeah, I said, no,
you want the specifics. I'm giving this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
I think for you. You've got rid in front of you.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah. What she wanted to be smile on the phone
and say yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
She was giving sas there you go. And I liked
her because I was in the toilet. I was literally
sitting on the toilet while you were on the phone
in the room, and I was like, oh, I like her.
She's got crack. She's got sas to her because I
love when people give it to you because I don't
know if you're picking up that they've been rude.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
To your heart. Because do you think I picked up.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I don't know, no, because it's not that Yeah, I
knew you didn't know what she was doing. But you're
like so mature and like, no, no, that's okay, we'll
do it now. Like you're like, I'm like polite and
un phazed by it. So I take my hat off
to you. But anyways, back to the FaceTime chat with.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Marm No, I want to go one more thing on this.
This is what leads me to when I go to McDonald's. Yeah,
and if I walk to McDonald's in the in the store,
walk in and they have all these computers up make
your order.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't want to use that to make.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
These are the best invention.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Show to the front desk and everyone's looking at me
like I'm an idiot.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
All the work is. They're like they're like, no one
I know.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I said, yeah, come here, can you speak English?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Let's make the order? Come here. I want a double
quarter panic pickles. I want. I love to communicate with
people so different.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
I the day they got those chaosks in couldn't.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Stand it, and even the people doing there. Now, then
that is where headphones like they talk to they're.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Talking to their phones on drive through.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Drive through at the airport. I'm talking about when I'm
at the airport when we're trying.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Yeah, and they're always the business and they're walking around here.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Are you talking to every idea?
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Yeah? Well, can I just say I love that McDonald's
have done that because I'm one of those people that like,
if I see what ingredients can I add? I add
so much I'd be embarrassed to do that in front
of a person. Yes, that's weird.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Perfect example today, we got a car washed. Right. We
just parked it in a car park all right.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, there was a bloke waiting there and he said
to me we went to get we parked it there, right,
We parked and went to get a coffee, and then
we came back and he goes, are you going to leave?
He waited and I was like, yeah, but we're going
to get a coffee then come back.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
What's a issue.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
But we pinked our car there, so we can do
whatever we want exactly. I could go missing for a
three weeks.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
With his hazards on, and I said, mate, you don't
know how long I'm going to be. Yeah, what if
I'm going to do with ship?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
It was a full car park, so he's probably like,
oh god. But anyways, that had nothing to do with computers.
I don't know. When I worked for the airlines, I
would be a checking hit customer service right. And this
is what I used to hate because there's kaos machines
to check in yourself and it's faster. It's so much faster.
(25:50):
Use a friendly talk to. People would come up to
me and I want to check in for my flight,
and I said, oh, have you used the Kiosk? No,
I want to speak to you. I said, the kioks.
You're gonna get much more out of the Kiosk than me.
I hate me because I'm a bitch. So and I'd
be like, it's much faster if you go check and
get your boarding past and then just get your bag
tag and you can drop it off. Why do you
(26:12):
want to speak to me?
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Because I like to ask him if there's an exit
road seat for me. I always like I need some
more legro.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Are you one of those people that get any chance
of an upgrade?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Today.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yeah, we're to the fucking cockpit. That's what I used
to say. I hate that because I'd say, oh, are
you going to pay what you want it for free?
I do pay, no, I know, but these people be
like any chance of an upgrade. My friend told me
to ask just in case, because they once had twenty
five years ago they got upgraded to business class.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Yeah, we'll see that. I understand from your point of view.
In that.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
In that in that instance, I'm going up knowing willingly
to pay. That's what I can't say to the machine. Hello,
can I book one exit? And then it's gonna say
sorry out of No.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
I want to talk to people. What are people doing
at the airport?
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Then if you don't want to work, put every computers everywhere.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
It's a matter of time. No, I don't want to
do a New Zealand at International you don't speak to
one person until you get to customs because even bad
drops electric electronic.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
I don't mind doing all of that. I don't mind
doing the bag. I know how to use it.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Don't get me wrong, I should by now you are
every second.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You're not stupid. I know how to do it.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
But sometimes I going up to this thing and asking
as see fucking upgrades because they want to go into
the lounge or I want to go to the New
Zealand Lounge. And I go to them, oh can I
get it? And then the lady up there goes, well
you should have went downstairs and did it, and I
said why should we?
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Then said what my arms? Bring it back up in
just change my cea.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Well, not all of us have a lucky of going
to the lounge, darlings. That must be nice.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
That's what I'm grateful for. We get that. Thank everybody
very much.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Well, back to the FaceTime core, he and Mom were
facetiming as per usual, and I said to her, I've
been speaking to a few photographers thinking about doing a
maternity photo shoot, just for me, not you, because you
don't like that stuff. I get it, we know. And
(28:24):
then Mum was like, oh, yeah, that's cool, Like what
are you going to do with him? I was like, no,
it's just more for memory because he's called be my
one and only pregnant.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Awesome.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Yeah, So she was like, oh cool. Do you remember
when we all went to get start so I'll take
us back.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
She did, did did your mother get a maternity.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Shoot, No, I wasn't. I think No, no's.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
So big now people think.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Media, social media, no one cares, so you don't care
about So why am I doing this?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Then? I don't mind if you do. Don't post that up.
No one cares.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I'm posting them. Why am I paying all this money
to not post it up?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
You just said to me, it's for yourself, keep it
for yourself.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
For myself to show every on the copy.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
For yourself in the whole one Instagram, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
There you go each word.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
So years and years and years ago. I would have
been about nine at the time, So we're talking twenty
years ago.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
My mom is nine this year.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
No, I'm not. I'm twenty eight this year. I'm actually
currently twenty seven. I don't know, just aging myself like that.
Twenty nine, that's you? Are you twenty nine?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I'm twenty eight?
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Okay, So we years and years ago, my mom took dad,
her Luke, and me for a photo shoot. Right. I
was so young, and we got this beautiful family portrait
done professionally done, and my dad looks amazing. He's one
of the best photos he's ever taken in his life.
I look cracker because how can a six seven year
(29:59):
old like I was just cute, Luke six, I was
six or seven years old.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Before you said you were nine.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
I was ballpark. I was toddler, todd love whatever. Luke
had a bit of heady shoes. His head's always been
a bit bigger than his body. But he looked good.
He bought it together for the day. Mind you, this
was before any of us had braces, so we our
teeth aren't great, but it's endearing. And then you've got
mom cute, cute, yeah, approachable. And then we've got mom
(30:31):
in the photo and a fathering shot of her. She's
big side part and I don't know what was in
fashion back then, but her hair was like a pixie
cut and flipped up like think of a Brady the
Brady Bunch, the mom from Brady Bunch, I don't know, okay,
like that, and it was like something you'd see in
(30:53):
the sixties. And she's hated that photo to the day,
and she cut herself out of the photo and just
redid it so it's just dad, Luke and me. And
then I'm when I still live there going through her
photo album and I see the photo of just her
and I start laughing. So I said, what was this suit?
(31:16):
And she's, oh, that like we did a family bought
it and I hated me, so I cut myself out.
I just left it there. I said, you do realize
if you were to die tomorrow, that's the photo we'd
use on top of your coffin because it's it's a
standalone it's like it's professional. And I said it as
your joke, but it struck a chord. And then like
(31:37):
the week later, she books in me, herself and Nonna
into renewed photos because she goes, well, if I'm gonna
prepare for my death, I better get my nonna to
prepare for her death like her mom. So we got
our three gals, and my mom's got a vision for
this whole thing. She's like, she really prepared for a
(31:59):
funeral shot where she's she's brought in a black turtleneck.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Right, did she change the fringe?
Speaker 1 (32:06):
She yeah, she she got her hair. She put her
hair up instead. Now so this is years later, years later,
and so she's explaining to the lady, or you know,
I want a photo that I can use for my funeral.
He's gone, Okay, I don't know if we we'll see
what we can do if you yourself. So literally, and
(32:26):
the photo is so morbid. It's literally my mom like
like dark, like creepy, like she's literally looking at the
camera straight face, big guys, no smile, like looking like
her eyes were worry. No smile, smile because it's a
funeral shot. She's not smiling at her own funeral. She's
I'm dead anyways.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
And then you can still she went from the photo
doesn't have to shoot the occasion.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
It can be a photo when you were happy, memories
of the family.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
So yeah, no, not so it went from being funeral shots.
And then she goes, well, while I'm here, I want
to do a few like risk ones to feel good
about myself, to know what I look like at the
just like sassy, risky ones. Cheeky, yeah, cheeky, more fun.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
What was she doing.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
French at home? Thoes No, not like that that but like,
you know fun. So this poor photographer's gone from doing
funeral shots to fucking adult only shots. And then they're
both at mom's house. And when I went to visit
just recently, like a few months ago, I was looking.
(33:40):
I was like, oh my god, Mom, we still can't
even use that for your funeral. I'm more inclined to
put the risk ones on a coffin to use then
the funeral shot because it's aged even now, because that
would have been ten years ago. So yeah, that's Sue.
She's headaches here on my to do list, take new
(34:04):
photos of mom.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Thinking about your family, the difference your family in my family.
Your family have to be prepared for every occasion. Who
cares when it comes? Tackle that on, make that decision
then and there. I'm sure you you know, and it's
sad for to be thinking like that when I die.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
You know, she's got so much to live.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
But I'm just saying, I'm sure when the time comes,
you're not going to be putting up a photo of there.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
You wouldn't do that much.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
When the times I'm gonna be fucking wearding myself looking
back at the photos going. I could really stitch her
RUPPI if I if I didn't believe in ghost, I
would fuck her up. But I believe she should come back
and halt me. So I'm not gonna do that. I wouldn't.
You know what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna put a
(34:52):
big photo instead of of her German shed with Ralfie
because she's got that many bloody photos of me, So
you're just gonna have Ralphie top of her conference.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
Can we stop talking about this?
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah, it's weird. But anyways, while we're on the subject
of coffins Costco. You know how they sell coffins. Back
when the one in Casola opened in Sydney years ago,
my dad, me mom and my Nona went, I don't
even know if you were there, and we signed up
because we're like, Cosco is amazing, so not suited for
(35:25):
a Lombardy family that buy three crackers a week to
survive on. We don't need bulk. We really don't need bulk.
So we were walking past the coffin section and my dad
goes to my Nona, well, well here you may as
well pick which one you want, Lucy, and she goes, well,
you know, yes, I don't like tukey, I'd like a
(35:49):
nice white one. And then she's going through all the conference.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
I know, no your family, that just everything's out there.
It's so good. I don't want to be talking about
that stuff.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
It's sad.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
We'll be buried together. It's okay, hopefully, What do you
mean hopefully.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Well, who knows. I might last longer than you. You
might last longer than me.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
So if you last longer than me, you're not gonna
go above me.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
Above you, Yeah, above you, I thot you mean right
next to you.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
No, we're going to pay for that ship, you much,
because for a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
I've always wanted a vaulting tone for the vault where
people can come and visit us.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
I don't want any want to visit me. If I'm
we here, that's it. No one come and see me.
I'm fine, mm hmm. If you can't come see us, now,
don't come see us with my dead. It doesn't count.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
People doesn't count.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
You can't go. We're going to talk to them.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Oh, I'll be in spirit. I've got people that I'm
coming back to haunt, and I hope it allows for
international trouble because I've got a lot of people to
see on both sides and news. I really hope God
allows that. Anyways, this is.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
Depressing talk, yeah, but they are.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
You know what, It is expensive men to remember when
my father died. It is expensive to sort of that stuff,
coffins and stuff like that. So I see where your
parents coming from. Well, I'm like your grandpress.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Ye, they've saved up for their funerals. Each they've got
savings aside, and no one's out of pocket for their funeral.
I was like stuff that, Lucy, who cares you gone?
Speaker 2 (37:39):
It breaks my heart that. But when I go, i'most
saving nothing. You're out of pocket because we look.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
After use your whole.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Yeah, surely our kids.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
You can for something out for U.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Actually, I hope soon a june counting on me and Luke.
Oh no, hope not Actually, no, you know what, I'm
going to apply the same mentality. They've blighting their life
cheap and the bare minimum.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
So can we get a coffin any cardboard boxes around?
Speaker 1 (38:13):
Oh? Still an anch have a pizza oven in their backyard.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
We could We could sit there and just talk about
all the good times we cook pizza.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
That been the first time that pizza it has been
used in years. They swear they go through phases and
fires up the pizza. Rathern does the same toppings every
single time. He said to us, And okay, so the
dose doo cook Dad, it's raw. He loses it. It's
(38:44):
like so insulting to him, the poor thing. He really
prides himself of that making.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
He makes good pizzas he makes a dove. No, he
doesn't properly.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah, the yeast has to rise. But my brother's been
saying four years. Can we have toppings other than ham
and cheese? Like we can put sausage?
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Can the tape? They do that.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
Don't don't go at him. He makes those and Luke
shut up. I don't see you by the pizza rather
than cookie, and you don't even know where to put
the dishes away.
