About The Hosts:
Tayla Montoya is an ex-cheerleader, and current radio producer for Jono and Ben on The Hits. Her roots are from a large Italian Australian family, with all the passion and fire that comes with that.
Most importantly, she is like that friend at the BBQ that is constantly surprising the group with a new questionable take, internet-based obsession or just something to annoy her husband.
Marcelo Montoya is a Fijian Australian professional rugby league player and brings insight into what it actually means to be a professional sportsman. He is a little bit bogan, and a whole lot of a perfectionist. He strives for everything in his life to be cantered and deliberate so he can perform at the highest level, while contending with his wife’s need to try and throw him off balance.

Mass And I just thought I started off with this week.
It's been a big week for us.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Why, Well, we played our last time at Mount Smart.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
What was it called Shawan Johnson Sean Johnson Stadium stadium.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, so we played our last game there for the
year and Sean played his last game for the club. Crazy,
I mean sorry, his last home game for yeah, which
is huge. Yeah, so you know, it was it was
massive and then also Jazz Adam. You know, to celebrate
those boys was pretty cool. It's obviously sad and devastating
(01:26):
to see them go.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
It is because it's not just them leaving as well,
it's their whole family that leaves with them. Yes, and
obviously when you're at a club and you get to
know these people, you do get to know their partners,
kids and all of that, so it's yeah, it's.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, you end up being more of a family, right.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Yeah, for sure. It's hard to imagine as well, like
what what the place will be like when people leave. Yes,
so you're very sad, but it was an amazing occasion.
The fans death showed up.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
The atmosphere was fans are the best, aren't they? They're
just the best.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Electric The signs, the signs they come up with. Have
you seen some of them? Yeah, I got so creative.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Special, it's a special place. So it was good. It
was good to beild run out there. And I know
we didn't get the win, however, you know, it was
it was awesome to see the turnout for those boys.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Something that the Warriors allow, which is so cool is
after the game they some weeks they allow families to
come on the field after the game. And that whole
night the weather app said it was sunny, but it wasn't.
It was like off and on raining. But then as
soon as the eighty minute whistle blew, it was clear, yes,
(02:43):
something was next. Sweet, I'll go on the field this
week's last home game. Get amongst the vibe, you know, hely,
just if that gets on the mic, I just want
to breakface. That was not my stomach rumbling the dog.
So yeah, we headed onto the field and like the
(03:03):
boys were doing a hacker for Sean. Yes, And then
it started belting down rain, so I put my Warriors
scarf over my head. I don't know why it didn't
do anything, but just there's some extra coverage. And then
you catched me in the corner of your eye and
you literally have never seen a man sprint so fast
to his wife. And what are you doing on the field.
(03:23):
It's raining, Come on, come inside, he freaking hurry me over.
I'm like, I want to get a photo with you.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
It's the last home game, on to do this, this
and this, and you're like, yes, Frizzy, anyway, get off
the field.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
It wouldn't have been a good photo because I was like,
this is crazy, because I don't know if you even
thought about this. But that was the last game I'll
ever watch you play rugby league. Whi's just me and you. Yeah,
next next time you play, because I'm not obviously going
to Cornela this week to watch you. Next time I

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Well, I mean actually, when the kids are around, which.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Is all the time, they're going to be the biggest
listeners to this podcast, and there's heaps are swearing.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Yeah, but you've got a pottymouth. You need to cut
it out sometimes.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, what's your vibe with the swearing on the podcast?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I'm more for it.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
So you're okay with this, I'm more for it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
But one day the girls want to get older, Louis
want to get older, and they're gonna and they're gonna
listen back and they're gonna go, well, mom, was what
do you mean?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
They'll get the real thing at home. They have to
listen to podcasts. I'm exactly like this at home.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's true, So they'll just know. That's why I love it.
I love it because you're authentic. Thank you, be your
self love.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah, I keep doing this is so if anyone wanted
to be like this and put this on, they've got
the wrong idea, because this is she is.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So it's important that you do it. Swearing, no, just
being yourself because these days everyone's lying.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Yeah. I The swearing things weird for me because I
never realized how much I did it until we started
a podcast and my mom literally every single week at
episode jobs, her only feedback, never complimented. I think she
wants to make she wants to keep us humble, but
she's always like the swearing tailor. Marcelo comes across, such
(07:00):
a beautiful, beautiful, mature man so well to do. Not
one F bomb comes out of him, and you you're
just this said, I go, holy shit, mar it's called
calling the kettle black. You are the one that swears.
This is where I got it from. So I want
to set up a secret camera in her house and
see how many times she drops the f bom.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
She's going to get it. She's going to get it.
Every time we FaceTime, the first words are swear and not.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Like yeah that and then there's dick and this and
all this comes at me.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
She comes at me, she comes at you. Yes, that's
where she learns it from.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Literally, so then actually funny. Sorry. When we were out
for dinner on Saturday night, a beautiful lady called Ruth
came up to us. Love Youruth, so shout out Ruth
if you're listening, and she said that she listens to
the podcast. And I said to her, amazing, I want
to hear your feedback on the swearing, because I'm quite
self conscious now about the swearing, and because of my.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
She's going to get let's cancel her.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah, she's.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Let's cancel from from listening or reporting on our podcast.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
And I said, Ruth, what do you are you okay
with the swearing? I know that's I know it's hard
to especially if you're in the car with kids and stuff.
And she's like, no, love, what do you mean that's
how we all talk?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I said, thank you, Ruth, And I've gone to the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Yeah, so you can pay, yeah, you know where to
be seen and that I came back and as I've
come back, I seen you chat and I saidho is
she talking to? Yeah, thinking all these things, she's that
guy she's talking to. And then I walk over and
it's Ruth.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It was Ruth, lovely beautiful lady. And then what did
she say?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I said, all these the other half of the podcast,
and she said, oh, yeah, well you know he's he's whatever.
You're the star and I said, well, someone someone who
finally gets it.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Don't you think it's amazing how people are listening and
they're showing all their love? Then you think it's cool,
haven't you.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Have you seen the video on TikTok where Louis looks
like he's eating my crutch out because I want to
call that love.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Those comments, what do you mean? What are they saying?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
And actually I've never spoken about it. I should preference
you here because there's been a lot of bloody rubers
started about me now after that video. So I had
just eate an amusedly bar and I am a messy
eater with everything, like everything. I don't care about crumbs
because I know I've got dirty this guy here that'll
come with a dyce and follow my every step. So
(09:34):
I was just munching away, not thinking, but I my
legs crossed and all the crumbs were falling between my
legs and Louis, yeah, went to town on the crumbs
and on the camera looked like a very unflattering angle.
Looked like a bit of bests reality. And then so
all these people these horrible allegations about my vagina. So
(09:59):
you know, cut the girl some slacks. She's got some twins.
Something must have been working right down there. Someone touched
me because I've got twins in me, so whatever. But yeah,
so we didn't get our photo. That's where this chat
was going, and we'll regret that for the rest of
our lives.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Man, We've played I've played many games at Mount Smart.
We've took many photos on Mount Smart. Not with me, yes,
with who will said who? I'm taking photos with random
ladies and on the film people are walking on k
Can we get a photo snap?
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh yeah, well I wanted another one because next year
it's gonna be a very different story. Probably won't even
make it on the field. I'll still be in the
toilet changing three.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
How are you feeling anyway? Pregnancy?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Pregnancy?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Shit, Every time someone asks me that, how you doing,
how you're feeling? Well, I'm here lying on a bean
bag and I can't get up with a heatback on
my rib. So you work it out, you know what.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I don't know what it's like to be pregnant.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
No, you don't so much about what you're going to say.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I don't want to do that.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I don't want to.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I don't carry you, baby. You can't do it. Well,
luckily for you, you can't anyway. Let me finish, all right.
I feel like when people ask you questions or how
are you feeling today? How's this, how's it cramping? All
this jazz? It's the same as US players say. We
get injured, touched with that, nothing that happens. But when
we get injured, and then every day everyone's asking how's
(11:31):
it feeling today, It's feeling the same as it was yesterday. Yeah, yeah,
so don't ask me again. Once I'm running back on
the field.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
That's such a great point.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Once I'm running back on the field, then it's okay.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
But can I just say you know who instantly? I think?
Or when you're saying that, your parents? Yeah, every time, Look,
you've been injured and we FaceTime. Then my dad, how's
when are you going to come back on the field again?
Every day every day say dad, you fucking know you'll
(12:03):
be the first to know. I promise no.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Updates reporting life from crenula, but they both.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Report life from krillala in the weather, your injury, everything.
Speaker 2 (12:14):

it's the early mornings it's getting you.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
It is for it and wake ups is hard when
you're pregnant. But yeah, this will be the first time
in my life where I don't have a job to

a few places in New Zealand. I'm begging to go
to Queans Down one of those. I doubt we'll be
able to fit that in.

Yeah exactly, Hey, look up at four am, go to
work and they come home and do the other two jobs.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Sharon, my job isn't an I typical nine to five.
Like the emails and the texas and the calls do
not stop just because I'm out of the office, so
I do my eight hours, but it doesn't stop. So
can I just have this and then another thing? Oh,
you know, enjoy the next two months because when they're here,
that's when the real job starts. Really, thanks, but at
(14:53):
least they're my own flesh and blood. So you know
what if they fuck me over one day at least,
so now that's our blood. Literally, it's some stranger.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Who does that? Who has strangers?
Speaker 1 (15:05):
What you said that, I mean like when you put
when you compare having a job to raising babies, people
in the office can piss you off and.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Then people in general, and it's going to sound rude,
piss me off.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well that's life.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
It's not life. I mean, don't like I said earlier on,
if you've got nothing nice to say, don't say it.
And everything people always find the negative out of things.
Or you're pregnant, ay, you won't be able to do this.
Wait to the kids are here to spend time together.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Have people said to you, wait till the babies are here, mate,
you're out, you're done, your last priority. Good because it's true.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
So glad people are giving you their heads up in advance.
Speaker 1 (15:50):

it happens. That's rude. True, I love you, I really do.

I never come across two people the same names when
I went you then I met your dad later on,
I was like, what do you mean you have the
same name?
Speaker 2 (18:33):

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Is that normal?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
In like other he's my others, Yeah, the other that's
that's like namesake in Fiji. Right. Uh. And he just
lived life in the moment, I reckon, That's how he was.
He never said it anyway. He was sick. He was
very sick. My old man had cancer, yep, and he
(18:55):
was he was in a nursing home by them. And
this is when I was at my old club. And
at that stage, I got injured. I did my knee
and it was pre season training, so I was training.
I got to go in a training early do my reps,
and then I got to go home early because I
started earlier than everyone else. Yeah. So I'd go to
the nursing home where Dad was, and I'd spend the
(19:16):
whole day with him every day because I knew he
like he only had a little bit left. Yeah, And
I'd go there and the nurses were like, all right,
Dad used to like VB. He used to like drinking VB. Yeah,
and they said, look, he can't smoke too much. And
then my dad was like, by then he had dementia. Right,
So my dad had bad dementia. So I'd go in
(19:37):
and then the nurses be out, Look, he already had
one smoke that I think they put him down to
like two smokes for the day or something like that.
Some ridiculous portfolio he used to make a pack of day.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I know, why take that away from him?
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Anyway. I'd go there and we'd sit down and we'd
just have a yarn, have a good chat. And then
I go, come on, dad, let's go to the cafe.
And he knew we will go and look at me
and I'd go to the bottle. I'd buy him a
six pack of VB. I'd get him a full packet
of smokes. We'd have lunch and we'll go to the
park and I just watch him down every single can
smoke siggi's while I'd sit there and just yearn with
him and have a good chat. So those are some
(20:09):
cool memories I have with him before he went. Yeah,
and I feel like that's for me, that's what he
taught me. Who cares like life's going to change? Yeah,
just live in the moment.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
M M. I remember finishing my UNI, my whole unique
course in his nursing home room. Yes, yeah, because I
would come to the nursing home with you when I could,
especially on weekends. And I remember sitting there finishing my
major thesis, which was actually on horror films. It's very interesting.
(20:42):
And he knew my name, but at the tours girl
he used to call me girl, Hey girl, how you girl?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Girl?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Go good? Monty? How are you here? Good? And then
he'd say to you, you better treat her right.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Yes, you know what people say, oh when you when
you meet some when you know they're the one. Yeah,
I don't have that with you.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
What the fuck?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I didn't, that's honest. But I'll tell you what because
because because it tracks back to this, right, like people
say that and I don't. I think that's all bullshit.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I honestly because I actually did think that.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
With well, I didn't. Anyway, good to know now and anyway,
like I'm look him back now. For me, it was like,
when you meet me, I have a wall up here,
don't you know what I mean? That will still up
Maybe it's still there, but you've punched some holes. In it, right,
You've drove a car through it. Anyway. I've always been
(21:39):
someone we had to earn my trust and you know
that loyalty, respect. I'm all about all that. Yeah, But
seeing you sit next to my old man on his
deathbed and finishing off your assignment, your last assignment to finish,
I was like, Bro, this girl was the one, like yeah,
And I seen that and I said, bro, like he
was on his death bed, my old man, God bless him.
(21:59):
And then I seen you, and I was like, she
doesn't have to be here. Plus all the other ship
I put you through, that's the tip of the ice.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Mate.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
So I seen that and I said, man, like this
is she's real, Like she's a real one. And people wonder, oh,
like I see how they go taste loud, like you know,
like they And then all those comments that you were
telling me about everyone's like, oh, she's spraying him, mate.
I feel like everyone has to have a bit of
personality about themselves. How do you How do you live
life and not laugh about things?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Exactly? Who wants a boring companion?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yes you're far from boring, but that's that's honestly. When
I knew, I said, Bro, She's like, so that's how
it worked for me.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It's still took you three years later.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I didn't like the head. See if I'm doing the
back of my head, what's a four year apprenticeship. That's
the first year to tick the.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Box and your apprenticeship. No, that's really nice. Thank you,
And I'm glad I was part of your life through
that time too, because I'm glad I was around to
still meet your dad, get to know a person he
is because from outsider looking in, it makes so much
sense to where you get some of your qualities and
traits and what do you think I have from him? Okay,
(23:09):
so the scary eyes. He had these eyes that when
I first met him, I was like, holy crap, Like
I don't think he likes me. So you got those
but like, I don't know. You guys just have this
presence about you and your brothers have it too, where
it's like it was like, I don't think they're going
to let me in here. But again, like you said,
(23:29):
I drove a car through that wall. I guess a bitch,
And you ain't getting rid of me that his loved
for cars. He the one of the first things that
he remembered me is because I drove a Mini Cooper
back then.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Old man was a mechanic. Mechanic you loved European cars,
That's where I get it from.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
And your dad was so particular. It's like small things.
And like you used to tell me, used to cook
you guys food when your mum was out working three jobs.
And so I'd like you to pick up a bit
of that actually, because he sounded like a really good cook.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
He was an awesome cook, but so was my mum.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
I know you've hit the jackpot, yeah, because our girls
won't have that unfortunately. So you're a good cookie, but
you lack the team down. I like you could bring
a chill Chilean cuisine and feature in cuisine I only
know Italian.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I bring the cleaning products, Oh my god. Whatever, anyway,
there's there. There's plenty of stories I could tell of
my old man. Yeah we're cool. Yeah, But every time
it's father's now I think of him. Yeah, miss him.
But you know he was suffering, my father follow and
(24:48):
you know he's he's in a better place now. So
God blessed that love you rest in peace. But what
about you? What's your favorite memory of of of and favorite.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It's most fucking fucked me. My dad's an interesting fella.
He's not your average dad.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
He is like I.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Growing up, me and Danny's to butt heads quite a lot,
And now I know it's because I am him literally,
And when people used to say that to me, you're
exactly like your dad, I'd be like, bitch, don't even
say that. But as I've grown up and I've looked
at my dad and I look at myself, I'm like shit,
(25:29):
And he's a great thing. He's got an awesome sense
of humor. He doesn't take anything personally. You could say
in front of a room, hey, you, Like you could
insult him and he would literally just laugh it off
and be like, I don't care like he but like,
he doesn't sweat the small stuff. I could tell him, Dad,
I'm moving overseas tomorrow to Antargica, and he would follow
(25:50):
us in a harm him. Yeah, he because you know,
And that's so rare for a father to have that
connection with his daughter as well, especially the youngest, because
only you'd be scared to tell your dad things like
because they just want the best for you, obviously, so rightly,
so but like when you signed with the Warriors. I
(26:10):
was excited to tell my dad because I knew he'd.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Be like, you go, like when most of the first
thing he said, New Zealand's a beautiful.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I'll be over there.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Everything here. He has been a frequent flight to New
Zealand for us. He loves it. He always comes, he
spends he loves spending time with us. My dad.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
I used to work in a government job and in Australia.
To get a government job these extensive checks back in checks,
and he was one step away from getting the offer,
and they called him and they said, we just need
to flag. Why have you been going to New Zealand
so much? That's how much? Yeah, they couldn't work out,
like is he a spy or something? As my daughter
(26:50):
lives there, Like he's just yeah, he's he he will
never say no to new opportunities. And he's instilled that
in both my brother and I. So that's something I'm
so grateful for because I know wherever we go in live,
he'll just be like, fucking do it, I reckon.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
That's probably while we've been really adaptable, right, Yeah, we've
about to move a lot of places. Yeah, you know,
like we've been away from our family for four years.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Now, exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
It's crazy to think that we're over here. You know what,
it's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
He's a great thing. But there's pros and content even both.
Oh but yeah. One one piece of advice that's six
ye to me with my day is this. Obviously, when
you're in high school and like I went, I went
to a pretty loose school where like I'm drage drinking
and stuff was really fine. Yeah, like it was like
(27:39):
everyone was doing it. So I jumped on that bean
wagon the first time you drank. I'm Italian, so you
could say eleven years old.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Culture.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, but like binge drinking, yes, sixteen fifteen fourteen, I
don't know. But so I was at the stage where
I was going to parties every weekend, and I remember
I was about to leave the house to go to
this party and my dad goes, oh, you know, you
know what I say, And I was like, oh what,
Daddy goes, If there's drugs at this party, you bring
(28:12):
them home first for me to try and make sure
they're safe. My mom's in the background, don't telling her
that he would you not, rather would be safe. So yeah,
things like that stick out to me. And then oh,
there's one story where I was so sick at school.
(28:34):
Did you guys have sick Bay? Yeah, So it's like
where you go when you're at school and you don't
feel well, and they just you lie on a little
bed and wait for someone to come rescue you. So
I think I was nauseous or something. Probably would have
been the time of the month. I know. I just
didn't want to run in pee class. I hated pee. Yeah,
And then so I went to sick Bay and I
said I'm feeling really sick. And the ladies at the
(28:56):
office like, well, cool, we'll call your parents. They call
my mom. My mom would full times. She says she
couldn't come and pick me up. So she goes, I'll
ring ring her dad. So they ring and and he goes, yep, cool,
I'll be there're no issues. Ah, good, They go, your
dad will be here ten twenty minutes. And time goes
on and I'm sitting there. I've got nothing to do.
(29:16):
Long mate. One hour goes two hours ago, and I'm
sitting there. School's nearly.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Literally.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So then they ring my mom and they go, your
husband hasn't come picked her up. Yet and she has well,
I can't. I'm at work. Where is he? And they go,
we can't get a hold of him, like we've been ringing.
So then she rings dad and goes, I thought you
said you were gonna go pick her up, and he goes, oh, well,
when they called me, I was on the way to
the beach for a surf, so I thought i'd just
feel a quick surf and then I'll come pick her up.
(29:45):
And she's here, fucking for real, inch, she's there waiting.
They're calling me and yeah, yeah, I'm trying. I'm drying up.
Now I'll go get her. So then he comes two
and a half hours later, comes to pick me up.
Makes the biggest thing, go where is she? The ambulance
of Taylor long Bar is.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
He he's so light hearted.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
The whole office was like, oh, here we go, and
I go, Dad, shut up, but he goes, come on,
come on, where's the patient? Where's the patient?
Speaker 5 (30:11):
There?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
There's nothing wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Is?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I said?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
So I just want to be afternoon off. And that's
gone to ship because it's three o'clock in it, our
school's done. Oh little things like that. What kind of
father do you think? You'll be.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
I don't know. It makes me a bit anxious thinking
about it.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yeah, Like I think, do you think you'll be streat
I don't want to be. You don't want to be streaked.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
I don't want to be I want to be fair. Yeah.
I feel like we live in a day and age
where we have to be able to raise kids the
right way and make and let them make the right decisions,
let them like, let us give them more knowledge that
we know from good and bad, and then let them
make the decisions for themselves. Yeah, we can't sit there
and spoon feed them the whole way through or hide
(30:55):
them from from things. Because everything's every things on an
iPad or social They're going to see it now, right,
everything that tiktoks, instagrams.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I'll see your clips on TikTok, which is full exactly
the night they were conceived, which is which is which is.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Scary to think about, but it is what it is. Yeah,
it's life. But I'm just saying I don't want to
be that father that's you. You're not going there. It's
going to be hard.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I say that, especially girls.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
But I'll take it to my stride.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I guess my parents, which is so weird. You'd think
two Italian parents would be so strict, but they were
so open and always made it the environment comfortable that
I would want to tell them things, to the point
where if I was, if I was hiding something, I
felt so guilty. And I want to do that to
our kids, to know that you're not going to get
(31:49):
in trouble. Just tell us so we know, and then
you probably still will get in trouble, but at least
you feel comfortable enough telling us so we don't find out.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Yeah you know someone else. Yeah, that's a good way
to Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
We'll see. I mean, because kids hide regardless.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I don't feel like you can plan to be pay
When it comes, it'll just hit us right in the face,
like you drove that car through my wall. That's how
it's going to be. You just got to go, all right,
find our feet, let's go. But it'll be I'm not
saying it's going to be easy for us, No, it
won't be. What I'll say is what mean you've been
through We're pretty resilient and and people our age. I'm
(32:31):
promising now they wouldn't be able to do it. We've
done move different countries, move here, move there, be away
from this one. That's what I'm saying. So everyone that says, oh,
it's going to be hard, shut your mouths. Come if
it's hard, come do a preseason with me. Come do
a preseason with me, and then and then we'll talk
about hard. So shut up.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Yeah, and then come to a pre season with me
on the sidelines as a cheerleader. That that's funny. Hard
cheer high, kicking to the splitz, that's funny. Arts the
dog up. Louis my other thing. You can't yell when
(33:11):
you're a dad.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I can. They'll be getting it. There'll be knowing. There'll
be knowing straight away, what's right, what's wrong? Our household?
Our household, it's not going to be We don't say knowing.
This house a house our kids, don't you they're getting it.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Oh mummy, I don't want to clean the dishes tonight.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Well bit you better, Mommy, I don't want to go
to school today. Let me tell you a story about
what happened to daddy when when your grandmother flogged me
because I didn't want to go to school. She did
going to school.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, yeah, Well, AnyWho thinks out there, happy father's father's day,
Ange and Monty and my nominal and my open.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Luke Rossi, Luke Yes, Happy Father's Day.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
All of you guys. You do a great job and
make it look easy.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Some better than others, but he's all great fathers they are. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
And to the listeners as well, if you're a dad,
or you know a dad, or you have a dad,
Happy Father's.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Day, Louis Happy Father's Day, mate, he's been sleeping around
with someone.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
So the other day I was given unsolicited marriage advice
from a good family friend, which we'll get into later.
But it was amazing advice, right, And I think every
married couple, no one's not one relationship is perfect, So
I think everyone can take advice on board, whether it
(34:57):
was asked for or not. And because the the advice
was so good, I was like, holy crap. I want
to see if anyone else has like real niche unorthodox
relationship advice or like a quote they live by that
helps them get through their marriage when they're going through
tough times and stuff like that. So I asked some
people around the office. I asks our families, ask some
(35:19):
of the listeners as well. Put out a call out
on our Instagram that means nothing to you. We know, mister,
I've no social media and I hate it, but it
comes in hand to you when you want things like this.
So I thought I would go through some of this
relationship advice with you and we can see which ones
we want to. You know, we want to take it on.
So always say yes when she asks if you want
(35:40):
to go through Maca's drive through. Yes, that's great advice.
You don't do that though, especially with dessert. If I'm
like vibing dessert, I'm like, oh, do you want to
go get mcflurry's drive through? You're like no, And that's
so offensive to me. I actually hate that. Like the
other day when there was chocolate coated strawberries and the
freezer and I was like, oh, do you want one?
And I don't want dessert.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
Just have it?
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Please just have it, because you know what, because it
makes me feel like shit that I'm not going to
have it, that I'm having it and you're not, and
then it just ruins my appetite.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
This is the way I disagree. Why because I feel like,
if if I don't want to have dessert, or if
I don't want to eat what you want to eat,
that's on you. Then if that makes you feel the
way you do, grow up.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
But no, but why can't you just have one chocolate
coated strawberry.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Because I've got to go on the field and run, tay,
I got to keep my skin folds down.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Oh it's bloody. It was one. It was dark chocolate,
which is antioxid It's two. It's a strawberry, three calories,
and it's all vitamin C. It's actually going to help
you run faster.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
It won't. It will anyway? Next one?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Oh my god, don't let them see you're crazy until
it's too late to back out.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Yeah, I think you got me there.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Yeah, because you're perfect, bitch, You are mister crazy. You
just spent ten minutes saying I had no bloody respect
for myself.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Shut up, because it's the truth.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Got advice. Don't marry someone who's the negative.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Negative you are towards me. I'm very optimistic, not towards
my dress. Since Yeah, because I went and took your shopping,
didn't I you took.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Me shopping because i'm your daughter, am I shut up?
No new friends of the opposite sex if you didn't
know them before the relationship, then you can't become friends
with them now.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
I tend to disagree with that.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Yeah, I feel like you have to have friends new
friends all the time when you work and.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yeah, we'll live exactly and it's sometimes it happens organically.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
Why who are your new females? Ah?
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I mean when you go to work, who do you
work with? Males? You work with both and females.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Friends they are? Have we ever had them over for dinner?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Doesn't mean they're not friends friendly.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
I don't want to hear more about these new female
friends you've made.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
I haven't got any. I haven't got any.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
I thought these were meant to help the relationship. I
never leave the house upset. No, never go to bed angry.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Good.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yeah, I'm a big believer in that, as much as
it kills me. Like sometimes when we're really in the
middle of a big fight and the first thing I
want to do is run away and just go. I
want you to miss me. I'm never coming back again.
Take the dog and drive off. I just wouldn't because
you never know what could happen on the roads. Yeah, yeah,
(38:30):
you don't know what could happen when you're sleep.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Not even that grow up. Oh god, if you knew
in the wrong I apologize if you weren't wait for
their apologies.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
That's the thing. I'm most of the times I'm not
in the wrong and waiting for you to apologize. You
are so stubborn.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
I always apologize that I'm in the wrong.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Yeah, it takes you a while, but I still come across.
But sometimes I don't have three hours to spare.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
But I still have places to be. You just scream anyway,
that's what you do. Shut up, you big whatever.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
Allow each other a free pass to get out of
social occasions one doesn't want to attend. Okay, So say
you're invited to a wedding and I'm your plus one
and I don't want to go to that wedding. According
to this rule, I'll have a free pass. So I'll
be like, I don't want to go with that to you,
and then I get off the hook.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
That's pretty That's pretty hard though, because it's a wedding.
A wedding is a big thing.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Sorry, that was just a bad example. Something else, like
a dinner dinner with people. I want to go see
them all right. Then you're like, well, log still go
and you can stay home. That's nice.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Then what do I say to them?
Speaker 1 (39:34):
I'm sick, I'm pregnant, and I'll just lie.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I mean, I told the truth.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
You say Taylor doesn't like you, I'm going to.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Say, listen, he's not here because she doesn't. She talks
about all of you. So I'm come to cover her ass.
I've come to cover her ass. I actually don't want to.
I don't like you either. Any next question, keep fine.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Answer is completely separate.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I disagree, Yeah, I disagree.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
God i'd be out on the streets if I was.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Okay, nothing left me. What do you mean because every
time I isn't going I want to buy something. That's
why you have all the money?
Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah, so I actually have it. Will keep all the
finances in the woman's bank account, keep all the finances
in the woman's bank account.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
It just depends on the relationship. It could be like
in like in another relationship, the woman could be like me, yeah,
not wanting Yeah. Yeah, well you're a tight ass. You
don't like to spend money. You don't even buy clothes.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Yeah, I've been put off even joining a gym lately,
because you take that back. Any coarse strength work at
the moment, sleep in separate bedrooms, especially if one's a snorer.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
I want to have to start soon.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Why why, masks?
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Why?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Because I've been snoring since pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
I don't want to put you down fit, because these
are the things that come right, the side effects of
being pregnant.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Side effects.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
You're carrying two, which is even worse for the side effects.
And now you're just snoring.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Yeah, it's because I'm so exhausted and my body's pumping
a lot of blood.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yeah, you're snoring a lot now, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
I hope. I wonder actually, if you guys have been
in a similar position to this, where you weren't a snorer,
then when you feel pregnant, you started snoring when you
had the baby, did you stop snoring? Please hit me
in the DMS because I would like to know if
my husband will ever find me attractive again.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
AnyWho, it's an easy fix. The mouth tape. Love this one.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
I'm not. I will get back on the mouth tape
after pregnancy. Yeah, just even the fact to stop dribbling
because the other.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Day so I never stop spart because you're always dribbling.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
When you've got mouth tape on, it closes your mouth. Right.
So I've been battling serious middle air infection and I
got an antibiotics. I didn't want to because of the
I am lots of fluid in my body, so I
got a middle air infection, lost all hearing in my
right side, which was great, tuned you right out, and
(42:15):
the antibiotics unclogged that ear, but then the other and
I don't know what I did during the sleep, but
I woke up in fucking in a puddle. I dribbled
that much to the point where water got in my
ear and it was blocked again. You're disgusting, so I
really need the mouth tape.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
That's disgusting. Doesn't even dribble whatever.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
I So this one's from my Nona. Always cook your
husband dinner, despite what argument.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
You're in love it.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
But like she lives and breathes that rule a. He
could call her all things onto the sun and you can.
He can be assured, be a player pasta there for
him that night.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That's the way it should be.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
I'm not going to take that rule up. This is
a great one. Unless he wears diapers, you won't be
able to change him.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (43:11):
That's a good.
Speaker 2 (43:13):
Yeah. I like it.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
I like that because it's you don't don't find someone
that you think I can change them. I can change them.
Chances are you won't. I can change you. That's really good,
all right, And this is huh what did you say?
Speaker 2 (43:29):
So you can't even change undies?
Speaker 1 (43:30):
Okay, yeah, well you think I've been repping these ones
for a week or something, have you? I actually need
to buy new ones because as my stomach grows, the
undies are starting to look like bloody Speedo's.
Speaker 2 (43:45):
Budgy smugglers. Literally, I should make buddy smugglers for pregnanty.
Speaker 1 (43:49):
And it's so uncomfortable having tight undies, especially because I
like to wear my undies like high waisted.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Jesus, I'm going to get higher and high right now.
But Billy growling. All right.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
So this is the most amazing advice ever. This one
I saved to last. This came from Angela. She's like
my auntie. We're not blood related, but you got yeah,
you got mother, my god she's one of my godmother's. Yes.
How would you describe Angela as a as.
Speaker 6 (44:16):
A woman's She's a beautiful woman, beautiful woman, devoted wife, wholesome, wholesome,
loves loves a family, great mom, great mom, John or
the girls, Lauren and Mesciana.
Speaker 2 (44:29):
They're just the best people ever, family ever, so wholesome,
so funny.
Speaker 1 (44:33):
Yeah, you look at that family and you go, I
really hope our families like that.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
I hope the girls are like that.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
I hope.
Speaker 3 (44:38):
So.
Speaker 1 (44:40):
So this came from her. Ready, never let your man
leave the house with a loaded.
Speaker 2 (44:44):
Gul Bye, Angela.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
You were't expecting that from her.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
But you can't say that.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
Why can't you say that?
Speaker 2 (44:55):
Well, because we can't say. Now the girls are on
the way, we can't be saying you.
Speaker 1 (44:58):
Think they've got me. Someone's gun was loaded and God unloaded.
Speaker 2 (45:06):
Stop it.
Speaker 1 (45:08):
I think that's just great advice, especially for someone that's
on the road a lot, you know, if you've worried
about them cheating or you're looking the other way, they
got if their gun's not loaded.
Speaker 2 (45:19):
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1 (45:20):
Yeah, So I thought that was great and I told
my mom that. She says, well, how do you think
me and his husband have stayed? Sorry, how do you
think me and your father stay married as long as
we have? And I was like, Jesus Christ, Sue.
Speaker 2 (45:36):
Checky Buka, isn't she hi?
Speaker 1 (45:41):
So yeah, that's that's some great advice there, So thank you.

don't you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Don't know that will's still up.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Maybe it's still there, but you've coned some holes in it, right,
You're like.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yes, frizzy anyway, get off the field.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
It couldn't have been a good fucker. Have people said
to you, wait till the babies are here, your mate,
You're out, You're done, your last priority. Yeah, good because
it's true.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
So big week for the Montoyas this week. Firstly, welcome
back to all our beautiful listeners. Beautiful What do you know.
How do you know they're beautiful? Well, they're just because
they follow us and they listen to what we talk about. Yeah,
they're beautiful people. So thank you for a listening.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
That's nice.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Mass And I just thought I started off with this week.
It's been a big week for us.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Why, Well, we played our last time at Mount Smart.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
What was it called Shawan Johnson Sean Johnson Stadium stadium.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, so we played our last game there for the
year and Sean played his last game for the club. Crazy,
I mean sorry, his last home game for yeah, which
is huge. Yeah, so you know, it was it was
massive and then also Jazz Adam. You know, to celebrate
those boys was pretty cool. It's obviously sad and devastating
(01:26):
to see them go.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
It is because it's not just them leaving as well,
it's their whole family that leaves with them. Yes, and
obviously when you're at a club and you get to
know these people, you do get to know their partners,
kids and all of that, so it's yeah, it's.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, you end up being more of a family, right.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Yeah, for sure. It's hard to imagine as well, like
what what the place will be like when people leave. Yes,
so you're very sad, but it was an amazing occasion.
The fans death showed up.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
The atmosphere was fans are the best, aren't they? They're
just the best.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Electric The signs, the signs they come up with. Have
you seen some of them? Yeah, I got so creative.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Special, it's a special place. So it was good. It
was good to beild run out there. And I know
we didn't get the win, however, you know, it was
it was awesome to see the turnout for those boys.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Something that the Warriors allow, which is so cool is
after the game they some weeks they allow families to
come on the field after the game. And that whole
night the weather app said it was sunny, but it wasn't.
It was like off and on raining. But then as
soon as the eighty minute whistle blew, it was clear, yes,
(02:43):
something was next. Sweet, I'll go on the field this
week's last home game. Get amongst the vibe, you know, hely,
just if that gets on the mic, I just want
to breakface. That was not my stomach rumbling the dog.
So yeah, we headed onto the field and like the
(03:03):
boys were doing a hacker for Sean. Yes, And then
it started belting down rain, so I put my Warriors
scarf over my head. I don't know why it didn't
do anything, but just there's some extra coverage. And then
you catched me in the corner of your eye and
you literally have never seen a man sprint so fast
to his wife. And what are you doing on the field.
(03:23):
It's raining, Come on, come inside, he freaking hurry me over.
I'm like, I want to get a photo with you.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
It's the last home game, on to do this, this
and this, and you're like, yes, Frizzy, anyway, get off
the field.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
It wouldn't have been a good photo because I was like,
this is crazy, because I don't know if you even
thought about this. But that was the last game I'll
ever watch you play rugby league. Whi's just me and you. Yeah,
next next time you play, because I'm not obviously going
to Cornela this week to watch you. Next time I
watch you play, we'll have mat I'll have two hanger
(03:55):
on us with me. Literally, I won't even know if
you're the field or not. Tay's mysel, I don't know.
I've got his two daughters here trying to keep them all.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
How are you gonna have diarrhea a game and also
look after two girls.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Well, the way I see it is that probably have
diarrhea too their babies. So we can all go together.
Actually not much all change. It'll be more convenient for me.
But so I was like, I really wanted to get
on the field get a photo of you, you know
enough post that same game.
Speaker 2 (04:26):

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I was going to do a deeper meaning the deeper
I was going to do, like, Wow, what a time
to be alive.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You know what it reminds you, you know whatever reminds
you of what you know. When it gets close to
New Years and everyone goes, oh, what a year twenty

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, but I don't care. No one cares. Oh what

it's going to be nothing because you're full of shit.
You said the same thing last year and you didn't

Speaker 1 (05:27):
This is personal because I make a news resolution every year.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Well, I'm coming for you. Then I'm coming for you.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
So now that we're talking about what should mind next

Yeah, don't swear with the kids in the car. Yeah
see yeah, don't swear when the kids do in the car.
You've got a pottymouth.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
But I can swear at home. Why just the car?
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Well, I mean actually, when the kids are around, which.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Is all the time, they're going to be the biggest
listeners to this podcast, and there's heaps are swearing.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Yeah, but you've got a pottymouth. You need to cut
it out sometimes.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, what's your vibe with the swearing on the podcast?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I'm more for it.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
So you're okay with this, I'm more for it.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
But one day the girls want to get older, Louis
want to get older, and they're gonna and they're gonna
listen back and they're gonna go, well, mom, was what
do you mean?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
They'll get the real thing at home. They have to
listen to podcasts. I'm exactly like this at home.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's true, So they'll just know. That's why I love it.
I love it because you're authentic. Thank you, be your
self love.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah, I keep doing this is so if anyone wanted
to be like this and put this on, they've got
the wrong idea, because this is she is.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So it's important that you do it. Swearing, no, just
being yourself because these days everyone's lying.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Yeah. I The swearing things weird for me because I
never realized how much I did it until we started
a podcast and my mom literally every single week at
episode jobs, her only feedback, never complimented. I think she
wants to make she wants to keep us humble, but
she's always like the swearing tailor. Marcelo comes across, such
(07:00):
a beautiful, beautiful, mature man so well to do. Not
one F bomb comes out of him, and you you're
just this said, I go, holy shit, mar it's called
calling the kettle black. You are the one that swears.
This is where I got it from. So I want
to set up a secret camera in her house and
see how many times she drops the f bom.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
She's going to get it. She's going to get it.
Every time we FaceTime, the first words are swear and not.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Like yeah that and then there's dick and this and
all this comes at me.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
She comes at me, she comes at you. Yes, that's
where she learns it from.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Literally, so then actually funny. Sorry. When we were out
for dinner on Saturday night, a beautiful lady called Ruth
came up to us. Love Youruth, so shout out Ruth
if you're listening, and she said that she listens to
the podcast. And I said to her, amazing, I want
to hear your feedback on the swearing, because I'm quite
self conscious now about the swearing, and because of my.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
She's going to get let's cancel her.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah, she's.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Let's cancel from from listening or reporting on our podcast.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
And I said, Ruth, what do you are you okay
with the swearing? I know that's I know it's hard
to especially if you're in the car with kids and stuff.
And she's like, no, love, what do you mean that's
how we all talk?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I said, thank you, Ruth, And I've gone to the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Yeah, so you can pay, yeah, you know where to
be seen and that I came back and as I've
come back, I seen you chat and I saidho is
she talking to? Yeah, thinking all these things, she's that
guy she's talking to. And then I walk over and
it's Ruth.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It was Ruth, lovely beautiful lady. And then what did
she say?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I said, all these the other half of the podcast,
and she said, oh, yeah, well you know he's he's whatever.
You're the star and I said, well, someone someone who
finally gets it.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Don't you think it's amazing how people are listening and
they're showing all their love? Then you think it's cool,
haven't you.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Have you seen the video on TikTok where Louis looks
like he's eating my crutch out because I want to
call that love.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Those comments, what do you mean? What are they saying?
Speaker 1 (09:14):
And actually I've never spoken about it. I should preference
you here because there's been a lot of bloody rubers
started about me now after that video. So I had
just eate an amusedly bar and I am a messy
eater with everything, like everything. I don't care about crumbs
because I know I've got dirty this guy here that'll
come with a dyce and follow my every step. So
(09:34):
I was just munching away, not thinking, but I my
legs crossed and all the crumbs were falling between my
legs and Louis, yeah, went to town on the crumbs
and on the camera looked like a very unflattering angle.
Looked like a bit of bests reality. And then so
all these people these horrible allegations about my vagina. So
(09:59):
you know, cut the girl some slacks. She's got some twins.
Something must have been working right down there. Someone touched
me because I've got twins in me, so whatever. But yeah,
so we didn't get our photo. That's where this chat
was going, and we'll regret that for the rest of
our lives.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Man, We've played I've played many games at Mount Smart.
We've took many photos on Mount Smart. Not with me, yes,
with who will said who? I'm taking photos with random
ladies and on the film people are walking on k
Can we get a photo snap?
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh yeah, well I wanted another one because next year
it's gonna be a very different story. Probably won't even
make it on the field. I'll still be in the
toilet changing three.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
How are you feeling anyway? Pregnancy?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Pregnancy?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Shit, Every time someone asks me that, how you doing,
how you're feeling? Well, I'm here lying on a bean
bag and I can't get up with a heatback on
my rib. So you work it out, you know what.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I don't know what it's like to be pregnant.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
No, you don't so much about what you're going to say.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I don't want to do that.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I don't want to.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I don't carry you, baby. You can't do it. Well,
luckily for you, you can't anyway. Let me finish, all right.
I feel like when people ask you questions or how
are you feeling today? How's this, how's it cramping? All
this jazz? It's the same as US players say. We
get injured, touched with that, nothing that happens. But when
we get injured, and then every day everyone's asking how's
(11:31):
it feeling today, It's feeling the same as it was yesterday. Yeah, yeah,
so don't ask me again. Once I'm running back on
the field.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
That's such a great point.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Once I'm running back on the field, then it's okay.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
But can I just say you know who instantly? I think?
Or when you're saying that, your parents? Yeah, every time, Look,
you've been injured and we FaceTime. Then my dad, how's
when are you going to come back on the field again?
Every day every day say dad, you fucking know you'll
(12:03):
be the first to know. I promise no.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Updates reporting life from crenula, but they both.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Report life from krillala in the weather, your injury, everything.
Speaker 2 (12:14):

Speaker 1 (12:14):
But yeah, no, I finished up this week, maternity.

mean yeah, you don't complain too much to me anyway.
I don't know how you are at work.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Oh I complain at work mate. They think my pregnancy
is much worse.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
So I want to say, you know what, it's commendable
what you're doing.
Speaker 5 (13:05):

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Well I learned from you.
Speaker 2 (13:08):

that you What do you mean like you just need
to bring it?
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Am I not bringing the energy this episode?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
No, you are. But I'm saying I feel like maybe
it's the early mornings it's getting you.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
It is for it and wake ups is hard when
you're pregnant. But yeah, this will be the first time
in my life where I don't have a job to
go to, Like that's it.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
But then we this is the first. This is the
first off season that we get to spend together where
I'm off, you're off, Yeah, because normally I'm off. Yeah,
you're working, I know.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
And I just hope it's a calm, relaxing off season.
I hope we get to go on road trips. There's
a few places in New Zealand. I'm begging to go
to Queans Down one of those. I doubt we'll be
able to fit that in.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I might actually I might be able to. Yeah, yeah,
you never know.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Well, thanks for leaving me at home. So yeah, but
we'll see, mate. We'll say I'm excited to just because
you know what else A lot of people have said
to me, or when you're going on attorney to leave,
or a finish up end of August, when are you
dune they do the math in their head, or anytime
from twenty second in November, really really well, Sharon, wake
(14:25):
up at four am with you?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Yeah exactly, Hey, look up at four am, go to
work and they come home and do the other two jobs.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Sharon, my job isn't an I typical nine to five.
Like the emails and the texas and the calls do
not stop just because I'm out of the office, so
I do my eight hours, but it doesn't stop. So
can I just have this and then another thing? Oh,
you know, enjoy the next two months because when they're here,
that's when the real job starts. Really, thanks, but at
(14:53):
least they're my own flesh and blood. So you know
what if they fuck me over one day at least,
so now that's our blood. Literally, it's some stranger.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Who does that? Who has strangers?
Speaker 1 (15:05):
What you said that, I mean like when you put
when you compare having a job to raising babies, people
in the office can piss you off and.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Then people in general, and it's going to sound rude,
piss me off.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well that's life.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
It's not life. I mean, don't like I said earlier on,
if you've got nothing nice to say, don't say it.
And everything people always find the negative out of things.
Or you're pregnant, ay, you won't be able to do this.
Wait to the kids are here to spend time together.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Have people said to you, wait till the babies are here, mate,
you're out, you're done, your last priority. Good because it's true.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
So glad people are giving you their heads up in advance.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
So it's not so much to shock to you when
it happens. That's rude. True, I love you, I really do.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Or are you are you keeping secrets from me.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
That's Father's Day. And now you want to talk about
because I Chris.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
So, yeah, tell us about your dad. Is there anything
that sticks out to you that's memorable, a piece of
advice that you still live by today.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I wouldn't say advice, but I'd say just how we
lived my old man. So, my old man is no
longer here with us. He passed away in twenty twenty nineteen.
Rest in peace, In peace, my old man. Here's my namesake. So,
me and my dad had the same name, Marcelo.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
I know, I found that so buzzy when I met you.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
So I am Marcello Eduardo Montoya Junior. Yeah, and junior.
I've got a junior in my name, and people can
call me junior. I'm actually a junior.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Well, and then what was more? Auntie's full name same
Musselo Eduardo as well, Edward. I'm Montoya.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
That's why I'm junior at the end.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
So it has that on my passport, Junior at the
end of my license.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
I wouldn't go revealing too much and people taking too
bank accounts ship, yeah, give them your fucking a SB
bank details too.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
That's my name.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Yeah, that's crazy. And I I had never experienced that before.
I never come across two people the same names when
I went you then I met your dad later on,
I was like, what do you mean you have the
same name?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Is that normal?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
In like other he's my others, Yeah, the other that's
that's like namesake in Fiji. Right. Uh. And he just
lived life in the moment, I reckon, That's how he was.
He never said it anyway. He was sick. He was
very sick. My old man had cancer, yep, and he
(18:55):
was he was in a nursing home by them. And
this is when I was at my old club. And
at that stage, I got injured. I did my knee
and it was pre season training, so I was training.
I got to go in a training early do my reps,
and then I got to go home early because I
started earlier than everyone else. Yeah. So I'd go to
the nursing home where Dad was, and I'd spend the
(19:16):
whole day with him every day because I knew he
like he only had a little bit left. Yeah, And
I'd go there and the nurses were like, all right,
Dad used to like VB. He used to like drinking VB. Yeah,
and they said, look, he can't smoke too much. And
then my dad was like, by then he had dementia. Right,
So my dad had bad dementia. So I'd go in
(19:37):
and then the nurses be out, Look, he already had
one smoke that I think they put him down to
like two smokes for the day or something like that.
Some ridiculous portfolio he used to make a pack of day.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I know, why take that away from him?
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Anyway. I'd go there and we'd sit down and we'd
just have a yarn, have a good chat. And then
I go, come on, dad, let's go to the cafe.
And he knew we will go and look at me
and I'd go to the bottle. I'd buy him a
six pack of VB. I'd get him a full packet
of smokes. We'd have lunch and we'll go to the
park and I just watch him down every single can
smoke siggi's while I'd sit there and just yearn with
him and have a good chat. So those are some
(20:09):
cool memories I have with him before he went. Yeah,
and I feel like that's for me, that's what he
taught me. Who cares like life's going to change? Yeah,
just live in the moment.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
M M. I remember finishing my UNI, my whole unique
course in his nursing home room. Yes, yeah, because I
would come to the nursing home with you when I could,
especially on weekends. And I remember sitting there finishing my
major thesis, which was actually on horror films. It's very interesting.
(20:42):
And he knew my name, but at the tours girl
he used to call me girl, Hey girl, how you girl?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Girl?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Go good? Monty? How are you here? Good? And then
he'd say to you, you better treat her right.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Yes, you know what people say, oh when you when
you meet some when you know they're the one. Yeah,
I don't have that with you.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
What the fuck?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I didn't, that's honest. But I'll tell you what because
because because it tracks back to this, right, like people
say that and I don't. I think that's all bullshit.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I honestly because I actually did think that.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
With well, I didn't. Anyway, good to know now and anyway,
like I'm look him back now. For me, it was like,
when you meet me, I have a wall up here,
don't you know what I mean? That will still up
Maybe it's still there, but you've punched some holes. In it, right,
You've drove a car through it. Anyway. I've always been
(21:39):
someone we had to earn my trust and you know
that loyalty, respect. I'm all about all that. Yeah, But
seeing you sit next to my old man on his
deathbed and finishing off your assignment, your last assignment to finish,
I was like, Bro, this girl was the one, like yeah,
And I seen that and I said, bro, like he
was on his death bed, my old man, God bless him.
(21:59):
And then I seen you, and I was like, she
doesn't have to be here. Plus all the other ship
I put you through, that's the tip of the ice.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Mate.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
So I seen that and I said, man, like this
is she's real, Like she's a real one. And people wonder, oh,
like I see how they go taste loud, like you know,
like they And then all those comments that you were
telling me about everyone's like, oh, she's spraying him, mate.
I feel like everyone has to have a bit of
personality about themselves. How do you How do you live
life and not laugh about things?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Exactly? Who wants a boring companion?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yes you're far from boring, but that's that's honestly. When
I knew, I said, Bro, She's like, so that's how
it worked for me.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
It's still took you three years later.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I didn't like the head. See if I'm doing the
back of my head, what's a four year apprenticeship. That's
the first year to tick the.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Box and your apprenticeship. No, that's really nice. Thank you,
And I'm glad I was part of your life through
that time too, because I'm glad I was around to
still meet your dad, get to know a person he
is because from outsider looking in, it makes so much
sense to where you get some of your qualities and
traits and what do you think I have from him? Okay,
(23:09):
so the scary eyes. He had these eyes that when
I first met him, I was like, holy crap, Like
I don't think he likes me. So you got those
but like, I don't know. You guys just have this
presence about you and your brothers have it too, where
it's like it was like, I don't think they're going
to let me in here. But again, like you said,
(23:29):
I drove a car through that wall. I guess a bitch,
And you ain't getting rid of me that his loved
for cars. He the one of the first things that
he remembered me is because I drove a Mini Cooper
back then.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Old man was a mechanic. Mechanic you loved European cars,
That's where I get it from.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
And your dad was so particular. It's like small things.
And like you used to tell me, used to cook
you guys food when your mum was out working three jobs.
And so I'd like you to pick up a bit
of that actually, because he sounded like a really good cook.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
He was an awesome cook, but so was my mum.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
I know you've hit the jackpot, yeah, because our girls
won't have that unfortunately. So you're a good cookie, but
you lack the team down. I like you could bring
a chill Chilean cuisine and feature in cuisine I only
know Italian.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I bring the cleaning products, Oh my god. Whatever, anyway,
there's there. There's plenty of stories I could tell of
my old man. Yeah we're cool. Yeah, But every time
it's father's now I think of him. Yeah, miss him.
But you know he was suffering, my father follow and
(24:48):
you know he's he's in a better place now. So
God blessed that love you rest in peace. But what
about you? What's your favorite memory of of of and favorite.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It's most fucking fucked me. My dad's an interesting fella.
He's not your average dad.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
He is like I.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Growing up, me and Danny's to butt heads quite a lot,
And now I know it's because I am him literally,
And when people used to say that to me, you're
exactly like your dad, I'd be like, bitch, don't even
say that. But as I've grown up and I've looked
at my dad and I look at myself, I'm like shit,
(25:29):
And he's a great thing. He's got an awesome sense
of humor. He doesn't take anything personally. You could say
in front of a room, hey, you, Like you could
insult him and he would literally just laugh it off
and be like, I don't care like he but like,
he doesn't sweat the small stuff. I could tell him, Dad,
I'm moving overseas tomorrow to Antargica, and he would follow
(25:50):
us in a harm him. Yeah, he because you know,
And that's so rare for a father to have that
connection with his daughter as well, especially the youngest, because
only you'd be scared to tell your dad things like
because they just want the best for you, obviously, so rightly,
so but like when you signed with the Warriors. I
(26:10):
was excited to tell my dad because I knew he'd.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Be like, you go, like when most of the first
thing he said, New Zealand's a beautiful.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I'll be over there.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Everything here. He has been a frequent flight to New
Zealand for us. He loves it. He always comes, he
spends he loves spending time with us. My dad.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
I used to work in a government job and in Australia.
To get a government job these extensive checks back in checks,
and he was one step away from getting the offer,
and they called him and they said, we just need
to flag. Why have you been going to New Zealand
so much? That's how much? Yeah, they couldn't work out,
like is he a spy or something? As my daughter
(26:50):
lives there, Like he's just yeah, he's he he will
never say no to new opportunities. And he's instilled that
in both my brother and I. So that's something I'm
so grateful for because I know wherever we go in live,
he'll just be like, fucking do it, I reckon.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
That's probably while we've been really adaptable, right, Yeah, we've
about to move a lot of places. Yeah, you know,
like we've been away from our family for four years.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Now, exactly.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
It's crazy to think that we're over here. You know what,
it's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
He's a great thing. But there's pros and content even both.
Oh but yeah. One one piece of advice that's six
ye to me with my day is this. Obviously, when
you're in high school and like I went, I went
to a pretty loose school where like I'm drage drinking
and stuff was really fine. Yeah, like it was like
(27:39):
everyone was doing it. So I jumped on that bean
wagon the first time you drank. I'm Italian, so you
could say eleven years old.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Culture.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, but like binge drinking, yes, sixteen fifteen fourteen, I
don't know. But so I was at the stage where
I was going to parties every weekend, and I remember
I was about to leave the house to go to
this party and my dad goes, oh, you know, you
know what I say, And I was like, oh what,
Daddy goes, If there's drugs at this party, you bring
(28:12):
them home first for me to try and make sure
they're safe. My mom's in the background, don't telling her
that he would you not, rather would be safe. So yeah,
things like that stick out to me. And then oh,
there's one story where I was so sick at school.
(28:34):
Did you guys have sick Bay? Yeah, So it's like
where you go when you're at school and you don't
feel well, and they just you lie on a little
bed and wait for someone to come rescue you. So
I think I was nauseous or something. Probably would have
been the time of the month. I know. I just
didn't want to run in pee class. I hated pee. Yeah,
And then so I went to sick Bay and I
said I'm feeling really sick. And the ladies at the
(28:56):
office like, well, cool, we'll call your parents. They call
my mom. My mom would full times. She says she
couldn't come and pick me up. So she goes, I'll
ring ring her dad. So they ring and and he goes, yep, cool,
I'll be there're no issues. Ah, good, They go, your
dad will be here ten twenty minutes. And time goes
on and I'm sitting there. I've got nothing to do.
(29:16):
Long mate. One hour goes two hours ago, and I'm
sitting there. School's nearly.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Literally.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So then they ring my mom and they go, your
husband hasn't come picked her up. Yet and she has well,
I can't. I'm at work. Where is he? And they go,
we can't get a hold of him, like we've been ringing.
So then she rings dad and goes, I thought you
said you were gonna go pick her up, and he goes, oh, well,
when they called me, I was on the way to
the beach for a surf, so I thought i'd just
feel a quick surf and then I'll come pick her up.
(29:45):
And she's here, fucking for real, inch, she's there waiting.
They're calling me and yeah, yeah, I'm trying. I'm drying up.
Now I'll go get her. So then he comes two
and a half hours later, comes to pick me up.
Makes the biggest thing, go where is she? The ambulance
of Taylor long Bar is.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
He he's so light hearted.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
The whole office was like, oh, here we go, and
I go, Dad, shut up, but he goes, come on,
come on, where's the patient? Where's the patient?
Speaker 5 (30:11):
There?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
There's nothing wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Is?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I said?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
No?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
So I just want to be afternoon off. And that's
gone to ship because it's three o'clock in it, our
school's done. Oh little things like that. What kind of
father do you think? You'll be.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
I don't know. It makes me a bit anxious thinking
about it.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Yeah, Like I think, do you think you'll be streat
I don't want to be. You don't want to be streaked.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
I don't want to be I want to be fair. Yeah.
I feel like we live in a day and age
where we have to be able to raise kids the
right way and make and let them make the right decisions,
let them like, let us give them more knowledge that
we know from good and bad, and then let them
make the decisions for themselves. Yeah, we can't sit there
and spoon feed them the whole way through or hide
(30:55):
them from from things. Because everything's every things on an
iPad or social They're going to see it now, right,
everything that tiktoks, instagrams.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I'll see your clips on TikTok, which is full exactly
the night they were conceived, which is which is which is.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Scary to think about, but it is what it is. Yeah,
it's life. But I'm just saying I don't want to
be that father that's you. You're not going there. It's
going to be hard.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I say that, especially girls.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
But I'll take it to my stride.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I guess my parents, which is so weird. You'd think
two Italian parents would be so strict, but they were
so open and always made it the environment comfortable that
I would want to tell them things, to the point
where if I was, if I was hiding something, I
felt so guilty. And I want to do that to
our kids, to know that you're not going to get
(31:49):
in trouble. Just tell us so we know, and then
you probably still will get in trouble, but at least
you feel comfortable enough telling us so we don't find out.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Yeah you know someone else. Yeah, that's a good way
to Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
We'll see. I mean, because kids hide regardless.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I don't feel like you can plan to be pay
When it comes, it'll just hit us right in the face,
like you drove that car through my wall. That's how
it's going to be. You just got to go, all right,
find our feet, let's go. But it'll be I'm not
saying it's going to be easy for us, No, it
won't be. What I'll say is what mean you've been
through We're pretty resilient and and people our age. I'm
(32:31):
promising now they wouldn't be able to do it. We've
done move different countries, move here, move there, be away
from this one. That's what I'm saying. So everyone that says, oh,
it's going to be hard, shut your mouths. Come if
it's hard, come do a preseason with me. Come do
a preseason with me, and then and then we'll talk
about hard. So shut up.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Yeah, and then come to a pre season with me
on the sidelines as a cheerleader. That that's funny. Hard
cheer high, kicking to the splitz, that's funny. Arts the
dog up. Louis my other thing. You can't yell when
(33:11):
you're a dad.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I can. They'll be getting it. There'll be knowing. There'll
be knowing straight away, what's right, what's wrong? Our household?
Our household, it's not going to be We don't say knowing.
This house a house our kids, don't you they're getting it.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Oh mummy, I don't want to clean the dishes tonight.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Well bit you better, Mommy, I don't want to go
to school today. Let me tell you a story about
what happened to daddy when when your grandmother flogged me
because I didn't want to go to school. She did
going to school.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, yeah, Well, AnyWho thinks out there, happy father's father's day,
Ange and Monty and my nominal and my open.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Luke Rossi, Luke Yes, Happy Father's Day.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
All of you guys. You do a great job and
make it look easy.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Some better than others, but he's all great fathers they are. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
And to the listeners as well, if you're a dad,
or you know a dad, or you have a dad,
Happy Father's.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Day, Louis Happy Father's Day, mate, he's been sleeping around
with someone.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
So the other day I was given unsolicited marriage advice
from a good family friend, which we'll get into later.
But it was amazing advice, right, And I think every
married couple, no one's not one relationship is perfect, So
I think everyone can take advice on board, whether it
(34:57):
was asked for or not. And because the the advice
was so good, I was like, holy crap. I want
to see if anyone else has like real niche unorthodox
relationship advice or like a quote they live by that
helps them get through their marriage when they're going through
tough times and stuff like that. So I asked some
people around the office. I asks our families, ask some
(35:19):
of the listeners as well. Put out a call out
on our Instagram that means nothing to you. We know, mister,
I've no social media and I hate it, but it
comes in hand to you when you want things like this.
So I thought I would go through some of this
relationship advice with you and we can see which ones
we want to. You know, we want to take it on.
So always say yes when she asks if you want
(35:40):
to go through Maca's drive through. Yes, that's great advice.
You don't do that though, especially with dessert. If I'm
like vibing dessert, I'm like, oh, do you want to
go get mcflurry's drive through? You're like no, And that's
so offensive to me. I actually hate that. Like the
other day when there was chocolate coated strawberries and the
freezer and I was like, oh, do you want one?
And I don't want dessert.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
Just have it?
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Please just have it, because you know what, because it
makes me feel like shit that I'm not going to
have it, that I'm having it and you're not, and
then it just ruins my appetite.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
This is the way I disagree. Why because I feel like,
if if I don't want to have dessert, or if
I don't want to eat what you want to eat,
that's on you. Then if that makes you feel the
way you do, grow up.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
But no, but why can't you just have one chocolate
coated strawberry.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Because I've got to go on the field and run, tay,
I got to keep my skin folds down.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Oh it's bloody. It was one. It was dark chocolate,
which is antioxid It's two. It's a strawberry, three calories,
and it's all vitamin C. It's actually going to help
you run faster.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
It won't. It will anyway? Next one?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Oh my god, don't let them see you're crazy until
it's too late to back out.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Yeah, I think you got me there.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Yeah, because you're perfect, bitch, You are mister crazy. You
just spent ten minutes saying I had no bloody respect
for myself.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Shut up, because it's the truth.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Got advice. Don't marry someone who's the negative.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Negative you are towards me. I'm very optimistic, not towards
my dress. Since Yeah, because I went and took your shopping,
didn't I you took.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Me shopping because i'm your daughter, am I shut up?
No new friends of the opposite sex if you didn't
know them before the relationship, then you can't become friends
with them now.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
I tend to disagree with that.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Yeah, I feel like you have to have friends new
friends all the time when you work and.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yeah, we'll live exactly and it's sometimes it happens organically.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
Why who are your new females? Ah?
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I mean when you go to work, who do you
work with? Males? You work with both and females.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Friends they are? Have we ever had them over for dinner?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Doesn't mean they're not friends friendly.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
I don't want to hear more about these new female
friends you've made.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
I haven't got any. I haven't got any.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
I thought these were meant to help the relationship. I
never leave the house upset. No, never go to bed angry.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Good.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yeah, I'm a big believer in that, as much as
it kills me. Like sometimes when we're really in the
middle of a big fight and the first thing I
want to do is run away and just go. I
want you to miss me. I'm never coming back again.
Take the dog and drive off. I just wouldn't because
you never know what could happen on the roads. Yeah, yeah,
(38:30):
you don't know what could happen when you're sleep.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Not even that grow up. Oh god, if you knew
in the wrong I apologize if you weren't wait for
their apologies.
Speaker 1 (38:38):
That's the thing. I'm most of the times I'm not
in the wrong and waiting for you to apologize. You
are so stubborn.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
I always apologize that I'm in the wrong.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Yeah, it takes you a while, but I still come across.
But sometimes I don't have three hours to spare.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
But I still have places to be. You just scream anyway,
that's what you do. Shut up, you big whatever.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
Allow each other a free pass to get out of
social occasions one doesn't want to attend. Okay, So say
you're invited to a wedding and I'm your plus one
and I don't want to go to that wedding. According
to this rule, I'll have a free pass. So I'll
be like, I don't want to go with that to you,
and then I get off the hook.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
That's pretty That's pretty hard though, because it's a wedding.
A wedding is a big thing.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Sorry, that was just a bad example. Something else, like
a dinner dinner with people. I want to go see
them all right. Then you're like, well, log still go
and you can stay home. That's nice.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Then what do I say to them?
Speaker 1 (39:34):
I'm sick, I'm pregnant, and I'll just lie.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I mean, I told the truth.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
You say Taylor doesn't like you, I'm going to.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Say, listen, he's not here because she doesn't. She talks
about all of you. So I'm come to cover her ass.
I've come to cover her ass. I actually don't want to.
I don't like you either. Any next question, keep fine.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Answer is completely separate.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
I disagree, Yeah, I disagree.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
God i'd be out on the streets if I was.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Okay, nothing left me. What do you mean because every
time I isn't going I want to buy something. That's
why you have all the money?
Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah, so I actually have it. Will keep all the
finances in the woman's bank account, keep all the finances
in the woman's bank account.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
It just depends on the relationship. It could be like
in like in another relationship, the woman could be like me, yeah,
not wanting Yeah. Yeah, well you're a tight ass. You
don't like to spend money. You don't even buy clothes.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Yeah, I've been put off even joining a gym lately,
because you take that back. Any coarse strength work at
the moment, sleep in separate bedrooms, especially if one's a snorer.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
I want to have to start soon.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Why why, masks?
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Why?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Because I've been snoring since pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
I don't want to put you down fit, because these
are the things that come right, the side effects of
being pregnant.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Side effects.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
You're carrying two, which is even worse for the side effects.
And now you're just snoring.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Yeah, it's because I'm so exhausted and my body's pumping
a lot of blood.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yeah, you're snoring a lot now, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
I hope. I wonder actually, if you guys have been
in a similar position to this, where you weren't a snorer,
then when you feel pregnant, you started snoring when you
had the baby, did you stop snoring? Please hit me
in the DMS because I would like to know if
my husband will ever find me attractive again.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
AnyWho, it's an easy fix. The mouth tape. Love this one.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
I'm not. I will get back on the mouth tape
after pregnancy. Yeah, just even the fact to stop dribbling
because the other.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Day so I never stop spart because you're always dribbling.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
When you've got mouth tape on, it closes your mouth. Right.
So I've been battling serious middle air infection and I
got an antibiotics. I didn't want to because of the
I am lots of fluid in my body, so I
got a middle air infection, lost all hearing in my
right side, which was great, tuned you right out, and
(42:15):
the antibiotics unclogged that ear, but then the other and
I don't know what I did during the sleep, but
I woke up in fucking in a puddle. I dribbled
that much to the point where water got in my
ear and it was blocked again. You're disgusting, so I
really need the mouth tape.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
That's disgusting. Doesn't even dribble whatever.
Speaker 1 (42:42):
I So this one's from my Nona. Always cook your
husband dinner, despite what argument.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
You're in love it.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
But like she lives and breathes that rule a. He
could call her all things onto the sun and you can.
He can be assured, be a player pasta there for
him that night.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
That's the way it should be.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
I'm not going to take that rule up. This is
a great one. Unless he wears diapers, you won't be
able to change him.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (43:11):
That's a good.
Speaker 2 (43:13):
Yeah. I like it.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
I like that because it's you don't don't find someone
that you think I can change them. I can change them.
Chances are you won't. I can change you. That's really good,
all right, And this is huh what did you say?
Speaker 2 (43:29):
So you can't even change undies?
Speaker 1 (43:30):
Okay, yeah, well you think I've been repping these ones
for a week or something, have you? I actually need
to buy new ones because as my stomach grows, the
undies are starting to look like bloody Speedo's.
Speaker 2 (43:45):
Budgy smugglers. Literally, I should make buddy smugglers for pregnanty.
Speaker 1 (43:49):
And it's so uncomfortable having tight undies, especially because I
like to wear my undies like high waisted.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Jesus, I'm going to get higher and high right now.
But Billy growling. All right.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
So this is the most amazing advice ever. This one
I saved to last. This came from Angela. She's like
my auntie. We're not blood related, but you got yeah,

about them cheating or you're looking the other way, they
got if their gun's not loaded.
