Speaker 6 (00:43):
This is the Fitzian Whipper with Cape Ritchie Podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
One day to the Weekend, One day to the Olympic Games.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Does anyone know the results of the Guinea versus New
Zealand soccer match? Which is I am this morning? I'm
looking forward to Slovenia. This is Denmark in the women's
handball tonight that's at five pm Australian Eastern Standard time.
I can confirm that Maya Vetik is playing along.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
With him Ahavatan for Slovenia.

Speaker 7 (01:12):
I don't think you've ever watched the.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Hand I don't know what handball is.

Speaker 7 (01:16):
Well, it's a version of what you played at school.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Handball like against the wall or four square.

Speaker 8 (01:21):
Handball is huge, four square or wallball.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
You've got to get it into a net.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
So handball is you've got to run down the court,
you pass and you've got to get it into a net.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
There is a goalie there and it is.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Thinking of lacrosse.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
No, no, no, no, it's it's very fast. It's a
huge European sport.

Speaker 7 (01:42):
Maybe it's not what I'm thinking of.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
That confused Tommy suggesting there's no net.

Speaker 7 (01:46):
No.

Speaker 8 (01:46):
The handball that we know is, you know, you've got
four squares on the ground.

Speaker 7 (01:49):
You have to you can do it.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
But the Olympic handball has nets. You've got to get
into the net. You've got to throw it into the net.
It's like it's like water polo, but on land soccer
with your hands.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yes, land soccer polo. Yes, I do love.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
This time the Olympics. I mean it's two weeks, it's
two weeks of glory. Okay, give me one story that
pops up every four years, every time the Olympics are
on in Australia. Give me the number one story. Do
you know what it is?

Speaker 9 (02:24):
You?

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Well, the number one story would be condom supplied in
the village. That's one. That's one.

Speaker 7 (02:31):
I think saw one floating around yesterday, but I don't
want to you're revealed. Does it have something to do
with birds?

Speaker 2 (02:39):
No, not with birds at all.

Speaker 7 (02:41):
Remembering Korea where they usually lit the flat then and
it was like caldron, the cauldron and that's burning, and
then it's the doves or the pigeons or whatever it
is that they set threat they were toasted.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
I watched that, Stephen, do you know what it is?
Do you know what it is? What does Nicky Webster
look like?

Speaker 5 (03:06):
Now?

Speaker 3 (03:08):
Every four years, of course that article comes out. She's
now thirty seven years of age. She's a mother, and
you'll see what she looks like now.

Speaker 7 (03:17):
So well, it runs dance schools Now, it's amazing. She
had her dance school on AGT SORR.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
The other day. Yeah no, no, she wasn't playing, just
sitting watching a show with her family.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Now I want to read out this story because this
is commitment. But also I was a bit confused when
I read it out because the headline was Kooker Burroughs
player Matthew Dawson airputit's finger to play hockey at Paras Olympics.
What my first thought was, has he done that to
get into the Paralympics team?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Oh as an angle for submission.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
But it's not cape.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
So two weeks ago he suffered a horrific finger accident
playing a game of hockey and the doctor said, well,
I can save your finger, right, but it's a pretty
extensive surgery that I need to do and it's going
to take a while to get over. Or I could
lop off the top of your finger and you're playing
Paris in two weeks.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
I said, I don't need. I don't need my finger.

Speaker 7 (04:14):
Take it off, which, okay, I've got two questions for you.
Which finger is it? And how do you lose your finger?
Or how do you injure your finger so badly in
hockey that it needs to come off?

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Smacko stick.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
So it's your it's your ring finger.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Do you wear your ring finger on your left hand
or your.

Speaker 7 (04:34):
Rft unless you're Greek? I think the Greek community wear
it on the right, so it's the writ.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
It's the ring finger in a way, it's the ring
finger on the right hand, which you don't really need
the top of that, so it's from his knuckle, but
from his knuckle up.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Gone and that and then for the rest of his
life he does the nose picking trick where it looks
like the rest of his finger is up his nostril.
And unless he's a guitarist or a pianist, then mate,
if you're if you've got a chance of being Paris
to play hockey for Australia, take the finger, take my
leg if you need it. Well, that's a big runch,
butson finger.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Dawson was advised from the surgeon that the best outcome
would be to take the top of the finger off
and he'd be fit to play within ten days. Dawson
said he was told that he opted for a fix,
there was no guarantee that he would be able to
regain full function. Despite being warned by his wife not
to do anything, rash, Dawson went under the knife that day.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Awesome, didn't even call home.

Speaker 7 (05:32):
What's his idea of rash?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, and then he can get home and he can
do the trick, or he's got the finger in the
box in the match box classic gear. Wouldn't it be great?

Speaker 10 (05:42):
Though?

Speaker 1 (05:42):
In eighties you get home right and at your house
you have in a glass box maybe on the mantelpiece
you have a gold medal and your finger taxidermi next
to it.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Wouldn't that or could you have your finger as the
hook on the walls up your gold medal?

Speaker 7 (06:02):
That's a great iye sacrifice.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
This for that? It just says this for that?

Speaker 7 (06:09):
Or does he get it?

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Does he get a tattoo of a finger somewhere on
his body somewhere the Olympic rings and a tattoo of
his fingers?

Speaker 7 (06:17):
You just put the finger on a on a metal
like on the necklace as well. Okay, you put a
hook into the finger like like the Skyhooks album cover
for another old.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Reference brush sky Oh, my mate.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Jonesy and Amanda, this is the.

Speaker 6 (06:36):
Fitz and Whipper with Cape Ridgie podcast.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
At a very special moment here in the studio fits
and we have.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
A service star in the studio and she's got a
guitar with her as well, which is very exciting because
she's going to perform for us.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
But you would know her from her hit Austin.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
She's had to over ten billion views on TikTok and
she is here in Australia to chat the la stash
of day.

Speaker 7 (06:57):
Guys, how are you?

Speaker 1 (07:00):
I mean, before we get into wild success stories that
you are, let's pay some attention to that belt. Man,
Oh my god, you've got a big handmade belt.

Speaker 11 (07:08):
We've got a big belt here.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
If you had that back of the ranch and yeah,
diamond studded dasher.

Speaker 11 (07:15):
A lot of horses have seen this belt. Can tell
you that much.

Speaker 7 (07:18):
We do love. We do love because we just before
you came into the studio, we saw you. We didn't
quite know what you were doing out on the balcony,
whether you were taking in the view, whether you were
recording another TikTok TikTok, but we did know it was
you because of the big dash it yes letter Yeah,
and Whipper was very jealous because he's also wearing a belt.

Speaker 11 (07:39):
Do you want to try mine? Eye?

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Do you want to could we swap?

Speaker 11 (07:42):

Speaker 5 (07:44):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 11 (07:45):
I go around here, got you? Yeah, maybe I don't
need to try your n But it's heavy, it's heavy.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, Yeah, what, Dasha, what is your vice now that
you've had a bit of success?

Speaker 2 (07:59):
What is your cowboy boots belts?

Speaker 3 (08:01):
What?

Speaker 2 (08:03):
What do you love behind my vice?

Speaker 9 (08:05):
Okay, honestly, I just bought my first designer bag, about
a Louis.

Speaker 7 (08:10):
For to bag, like a travel bag for the plane.

Speaker 9 (08:13):
No, it was like a little mini bag, like a
little mini guy.

Speaker 11 (08:15):
It's in the other room.

Speaker 9 (08:16):
I'm obsessed with it and I love I brought a
pair of booty sunglasses yesterday because I ran into them
at the store and I said, well.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
Because you can as well. Sads doesn't fit.

Speaker 11 (08:29):
Yeah, you don't have the same way side.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
I might be able to do it around my five.
We're not getting it.

Speaker 11 (08:35):
Like an upper you know, Santa belts.

Speaker 7 (08:39):
Yeah, like when you a pencil skirt, you can.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
You can use it as a tour ok if you
wan't weep, if your arm gets chopped off or something
about it.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I could wear around the collar so heavy.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
I want to talk to you about your songwriting skills.
It's unbelievable because I've been reading up on you. You
didn't I the song didn't I is it true that
you wrote that in forty five minutes as you were
rushing to take shielder from a tornado in Nashville?

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Do you hit?

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Do you need natural disasters around you to write music?

Speaker 12 (09:14):
All?

Speaker 11 (09:14):
I never knew, but I guess I do. Yeah, Well
we can whip her out.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'm not a natural because just the belt didn't fit.
He Dasha, could you us like you talking about as
a tomato coming and what You're just in your room
just trying against no.

Speaker 9 (09:28):
So I was in deep in Franklin, Tennessee, which is
like forty five minutes outside of Nashville, and that's the direction.

Speaker 11 (09:34):
That the tornado was coming. It was coming from like south.

Speaker 9 (09:37):
And I had already had a session that day with
Ashley Gorley, who has the record of.

Speaker 11 (09:41):
Number one country songs ever as a songwriter. So he's
like the guy, Yeah, the guy.

Speaker 9 (09:46):
It was our first time ever writing, and I was
so excited to write with him because I'm like, he
writes every song I hearde that's on the radio. I'm like,
let's go okay. And so we wrote a song called
him Not This Party, which is also going to come out.
And then the second session rolled through, when we were
sitting in the studio, actually left and Emily Wiseman came
in and she has been like I had never met her,
but she'd been one of my favorite songwriters since I

(10:06):
was like eighteen. Moved to Nashville and I heard about
this girl Emily who was like this iconic songwriter, and
so she and I just like talked for hours, and
so we had like a four hour time allotment to
like write the song, but we talked for like three
of them. And then we get a call from our
publisher and was like, hey, guys, how's this session going.
And we're like, oh, we're just chatting, having a good time,

(10:27):
and she goes, awesome, the tornado's gonna hit in an hour.
You guys have to leave where you are an hour
so you don't get wrapped up in a tornado.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
Got it?

Speaker 11 (10:35):
And we're like, oh, we haven't written a song yet.

Speaker 9 (10:38):
And so we got our shit together and wrote den'ty
really fast and the demo you hear, I mean that's
I did one pass literally was a one vocal.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
What a great TV show that would be where we
get like bigadas. So we get you Dasha, we get swifty,
we get sheering, then you get a then you get
in the natural.

Speaker 9 (10:57):
Yeah, and you've got to write the best song in
that time happened, that would be good viewing.

Speaker 7 (11:04):
I'm sure working under pressure is sometimes the way to
do it because I think, I mean, I don't know,
you've got too much time, you can start overthinking exactly.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Agreed.

Speaker 9 (11:13):
Yeah, we didn't have time to second guess our concept
or the chords where you're using.

Speaker 11 (11:18):
It's like cool, that's what we're going for.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Amazing too. Timing wise, that country music, you know, especially
here in Australia, I mean, I know it's always been
massive in the US for country music has taken off everywhere.
It's exploded.

Speaker 11 (11:31):
It's so cool.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Timing is perfect. I mean, we launched and Over Country
the other day because there's such demand for so much
great country music. Yeah, so well done. What a sweet spot.
Like it's exploding.

Speaker 9 (11:42):
It's really cool to be because I felt that cultural
difference in country becoming kind of wider and like more
people wanting to sink their teeth into country. And it
was cool because that kind of happened a few months
ago where when Arson was blowing up, and it was
cool because Arson is such a country song but also
such a pop song at the same time, and so
I think it was the perfect like flag of that

(12:02):
whole movement because I'm like, it can be kind of
whatever you want it.

Speaker 11 (12:05):
To be, which is cool.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
When you're talking about blowing up with Austin, right were
you were you getting phone calls every day saying, Dasha,
it's gone to another level, like it just keeps growing
and growing, Like what were you getting informed?

Speaker 9 (12:20):
I'm so when Austin was blowing up, I was completely independent.

Speaker 11 (12:23):
I wasn't with warnering it. And so it was me
and my manager, my two.

Speaker 9 (12:27):
Publicists and these two like independent label guys I was
working with and we're all like besties, like.

Speaker 11 (12:33):
That was the team.

Speaker 9 (12:34):
And so we were in this one group chat just
like every day, sending new things, new articles, new stats,
and we were all like stalking Spotify for artists, being like.

Speaker 11 (12:43):
Right now, like what is going on?

Speaker 9 (12:44):
Because that was all like it was completely independent, and
that does not happen.

Speaker 11 (12:48):
That does not happen for independent.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
People, as it does.

Speaker 11 (12:51):
It turns out, a.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Dasha, you do have the guitar here, which is there coming, Oh.

Speaker 11 (12:57):
My god, and they have to play a song.

Speaker 7 (18:20):
I'll see you next time.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
With a Kate Richie podcast has gone on.

Speaker 7 (18:27):
Well, I want to talk about food, Hala. Who you
with me? There's nothing better, I suppose than to create
a queue out the front of your restaurant, just to
ghana a bit of flat or going on in there?

Speaker 1 (18:43):
What's everyone lining up for?

Speaker 7 (18:45):
Well, I was reading overnight and I don't think this
is necessarily a new thing, because one of these stores
did pop up in Noosa and I know that I
took my daughter there maybe twelve months ago, and I
think it's called the you know the yochi, Oh, the
yogurt bars.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
They do like different topics and things.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Do you mix some match de Yeah.

Speaker 7 (19:09):
You have to line up and then you get to
choose your your frozen yogurt, whether you're like a deluxe
chocolate or a banana or vanilla, and then you go
to the bar a bit like cold rock for example,
and you add all the bits and pieces little you
can do all that. But they also have fruit like

(19:30):
they have raspberry coolly. Yes, I mean huge Asian market.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I have to say if it's on Hastings Street, and
to be cheap.

Speaker 7 (19:42):
As it's so cheap buying a yo chi, we tried
to go to the other five dollar fish and chips.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Every day we went down to Bondai because there's like
a yogurt place down there where we go and the
kids would say. Kids had said there's a yochi that's
opened in bonds and then we went down there and
I googled and that didn't say anything, so there wasn't
a yochi in Bondai. Then we saw another kid carrying
a yochi tub and we went, oh my god, there
is a yochi here in Bonda, but it's not online yet.

(20:11):
Did you ask the kid?

Speaker 7 (20:12):
No?

Speaker 1 (20:13):
No, because we'd already got our other yogurt from the
yogurt place.

Speaker 7 (20:15):
I think you get arrested if you chase a kid
around Bondo.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
I got him in a headlock.

Speaker 7 (20:21):
I stole it from him and said, where did you
get that yochi? There's one on the in Surrey Hills.
Because I actually my daughter really wanted to go, but
it was a Saturday night and I'm thinking frozen yogurt
isn't going to be massive in Surrey Hills Saturday night.
Maybe the night clubs, yeah, sure, but the line was
out the door, and I don't I don't want to

(20:41):
be snobby. I think, obviously something's really good if people
have to queue for it. But I think I've only
ever lined up for well, no, I don't think I
ever lined up for a nightclub, guys, But if you're
not lining up at the post office, it can't be
that great, like come back another time when there aren't
as many peace.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
I think what happens is these food trends become a status,
so people want to be able to go Saturday night
out selfie shop with the OCHI.

Speaker 7 (21:10):
Yeah, absolutely, I know that all their friends are going
to go on no way you got did you line up?

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Or we're at the clock around the corner.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
It's in and out burger, it is, and they've done
so well because in an out burger go well, we're
only in these certain areas because we're freeing, and if
we go out any further that where our warehouse is,
the food isn't pressure.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
It takes too long to get anywhere else. And everyone goes,
oh wow, I mean they're good burgers. Yeah, they're okay,
but they don't rock your brain.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
They're not as good as McDonald's. Oh well, and do
you know what these people Yochi in and out Burger?
They're masters of hype.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
That's what I was going to say.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
The craft is selling hype, Yeah, perfectly. And they make
a burger and they make an outside bar with a
couple of toppings. But it's the height and the status
symbol of that, like, oh my god, la in and
out burger style.

Speaker 3 (22:05):
I saw I still going that's a super food for
a while. Wasn't it about kale and wheat shot out
shots yesterday?

Speaker 7 (22:12):
I always get confused though, how to pronounce it, so
it always feels like I'm ordering a beer to a
sais in the morning.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
CANi prays with the sight of granola.

Speaker 7 (22:24):
I'm still.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Usually in somersih.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
With a with Kate Richie podcast. Let's talk about this
fight pre wedding bride versus bride'smaid.

Speaker 7 (22:39):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
The bride has sat down with the best friend and
said will that be the made of honor? And said, hey,
you know what's going to be so special? I've chosen
a beautiful song that I want to walk down the
aisle to and we're going to celebrate and that song
is Lover by Taylor Swift. Always a big decisions what
music do we go with for the wedding guys, whether

(23:01):
it's down the aisle or the waltz, whatever you want
to do. There's often that special song and she said,
I want it to be Lover. Fair enough, great song.
We all know that one. In fact, that was our
slow waltz song for the Singles Ball. It was of
a dance and we rocked back.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Forth quite successful. I think there was quite a few
couples that put it off.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
There was a couple on the night that are already
taken off by this stage. I think fits not to
mention the friend you've got. Have we got an update
on those two?

Speaker 2 (23:29):
Yeah, they're still seeing each other. Yep, they're still seeing
each other, which is great news, and that's what it's
all about.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
We need another singles Ball. I love it. Anyway, the
friend has said, no, no, no, no no, I have
to stop you there. You can't go with that song.
It would be insensitive to Taylor Swift to play that
song because it was on her denial playlist, which basically
meant whatever she wrote it about at the time doesn't
stand today. So she's in denial about what that song

(23:58):
was about. And she said, you know, it's it's not
what you thought it was about. It's not about that.
So it would be far too insensitive to do that
to Taylor.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
Well, it doesn't matter in it. I suppose you don't
look at it like that, do you. It's what it
means to you.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
The five playlists for Taylor Swift represent different emotional components
of a breakup, and this one was a terrible time.
How does a friend honestly sit there and say to
a bride, who's if bits you've been through this, You've
planned a wedding. So much goes into it, and so
much decision is based around the song and how you're
going to work on that song. And the friend says

(24:36):
it's insensitive to Taylor Swift. Kay, friend, why don't you
go off in your wildest dreams that's a tying guys,
and shake it up a little bit, because that's a stinker.
Get out or get in. Don't tell me about Taylor
Swift's emotions when I'm about to walk down the aisle,
best friend.

Speaker 3 (24:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Do you call them Taylor Swift cookers?

Speaker 1 (24:59):
I think that so Swift cookers.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
They're Swift cookers there.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Where they've lost the plot.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
They have people who come up with theories about Taylor
Swift all the time and so consumed by the Swift heard.

Speaker 1 (25:11):
The Educate podcast like I've never heard like. I mean,
they're up there with You're right fits, they are cookers, They're.

Speaker 7 (25:19):
Up there with the Flatter Lizzy, Jess and Kate Richie.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
They're mental, the three cookers talking about Tyler Swift.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Edge cooked Taylor Cookers. I mean, what is Jess? Give
me this? Yeah, what is the most out there theory
that you've heard about Taylor Swift or about the understanding
of one of her songs?

Speaker 7 (25:39):
Oh?

Speaker 13 (25:39):
I mean, I could go down a huge rabbit hole.

Speaker 14 (25:42):
Every song she's ever released, I don't think has ever
been about the person she has claimed it has been.
And I've got mountains and mountains of evidence on a
PowerPoint I cannot wait to take you through.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
At nine fifteen, we're best friends with this girl and
she said, Hey, we're found this great song, lover. How
would that sit with you, mate? It'd be no.

Speaker 13 (26:00):
See that's because that is unhinged on another level.

Speaker 14 (26:03):
I mean, I'm not going to ruin someone's wedding, but
I would be looking down on her very high horse.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
I'm so glad the Swift tsunami has passed, because I mean,
you were neglecting your son Harry there for a while.

Speaker 13 (26:17):
It's scarily accurate, very much.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
So many theories just going around that people were just
neglecting all other people in their lives.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Tommy, how we can move.

Speaker 13 (26:27):
I don't think Harry has heard a song that isn't
Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
To be honest, he stuffed, Tommy. I don't know if
I'm allowed to do this.

Speaker 8 (26:35):
Don't just gets to give away to Taylor Swift.

Speaker 7 (26:38):
Hold type.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Let's talk about Taylor Swift's last show of her ears
to her? Where is it?

Speaker 7 (26:45):
Canada?

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (26:46):
Canada and early December, end of an error.

Speaker 13 (26:50):
You could say, guys, built time, you got some.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Very good Tommy. Imagine if we did our last show
from canad and we took listeners over I'm away again
to get onto my thoughts.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
I'm helping.

Speaker 13 (27:15):
This is the Fits with Kate Richie podcast, The cost
of Living.

Speaker 1 (27:19):
As we have spoken about a lot on this show.
Do you know what stat I heard this morning that
with the average wage here in Sydney we'll call it
Australia if you want, why don't we round it out,
Let's call it Australia. The average wage in Australia and
the average housing cost means that you would need to
save for forty six years for a deposit to buy

(27:41):
the average house here. I'm going to bring it back
in in Sydney, forty six years the deposit just for
the deposit on the average priced house in Sydney.

Speaker 7 (27:53):
Hopeful, isn't it?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
You're not saving much that way? You could save a
bit more, couldn't you.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Well, that's what they're saying with the average wage. If
you're putting x amount or whatever's recommended as your average
money aside.

Speaker 7 (28:05):
Every week after you fine the money to pay for.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
A problem, he is too when you have when you
know you meant to be saving, but you have such
a long runway. If someone was to suggest you need
to be saving for forty six years, you kind of
throw the towel in, don't you. So the savings doesn't
don't really exist because you're thinking, what's the point anyway?
I'm I'm a lifelong renter.

Speaker 7 (28:25):
Yeah, I'm going to prioritize other things because that seems unattainable.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
And that's not an issue. You can rent for your
entire life, go for it. It doesn't really matter. But
the whole Assie dream. And they say that only twenty
five percent of people in a couple of years time
will be living in houses that they have. The picket
fence in the backyard, Like the backyard is becoming a
dying option for assis to bring up a family. And

(28:52):
that's the hardest part.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
And it fences. There's not many companies that do picket
fences anymore.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
That's a dying I mean, pine, just your basic pine.
You'd need to paint it well, paint.

Speaker 7 (29:01):
It white with a crab apple in the front tree.
That's what we had in Campbelltown. But that's what ruins
you Disney movies and growing up in a firebrough house
in Chamberlain Street, because that's kind of what that's what
you want, a patio and a lawn that you can.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Water, and asbestos, yes, and a bit of lead in
the backyard.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
It's sounding a lot like the castle, isn't it, But
you know what I mean, there's a lot to that
and that back then, that was the castle and that
was the dream and to come home to that pick
and fence and your crab apple. Well that was that
was the best thing in the world, and you couldn't
ask for anything else or anything more. But now everyone's stuffed.

Speaker 7 (29:39):
Where's this going?

Speaker 11 (29:40):
Because it.

Speaker 5 (29:42):
Sad?

Speaker 1 (29:43):
It sorry, let me put it to you this way.
There's a twenty eight year old girl and she's come
out and she said, because of the crisis, I'm going
to need to couple up in the hope of finding
some accommodation to live. She's been renting for a very
long time. Rent's about to go up fifty dollars in
the next month, so she said the only way forward
is to find somebody to be in a relationship with

(30:06):
or share a bed with. That's how I have to
do it now, because without that then I don't get
a line. A bit of a burrito coming back up. Yeah,
let's not worry too much about the sound effect from
the internal I just did.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Just hit her into the break discuss.

Speaker 7 (30:30):
Brent's going up and breakfast.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Better than going out. Anything have happened in here, Kate Ritchie.

Speaker 7 (30:40):
Okay, So she needs to share a bed, hopefully not
with you, because you can't keep your inside.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Could you imagine that moment though of going, Okay, well
you seem nice enough to you appear like a clean individual. Yeah,
I'll share a bed with you. I don't know you,
but I suppose I'm going.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
You have to know, you don't have to mate.

Speaker 7 (31:02):
You don't have to, so you I do think people
consider the fact that they need to. Maybe, you know,
I want to find someone for love, but I also
think I need to. You know, life may be better
if I can do it with it in a team.
Remember years ago, there was that trend of groups of
people putting all of their money in. There's this wave

(31:25):
of like, if you know, we none of us can
afford to buy a house on our own. So but
if three couples do, ye, then perhaps it may be
an option.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
And it was fool proof, like nothing would go wrong
when you went in.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
When when you when you go in with six other
friends into a house, it is a perfect world and
nothing ever happens.

Speaker 7 (31:46):
I mean, I mean it does make sense because I
mean marriages work well, and there's only two in that,
so let's throw another four people in there, just to
mix it up and keep it spicy.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
I made of mind. Alex lived with a girl who
was a friend, right, So they moved in and they
were renting. Then decided to buy a house together because
they thought that would be the only way to do
it because they couldn't afford it individually. And they then
fell in love. So they now have the house and
they've got two kids.

Speaker 7 (32:13):
Are they still in love?

Speaker 1 (32:15):
They're still together?

Speaker 7 (32:16):
Yeah, it was very different.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
It's a success story one that's very few.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
I'd celebrate with a burb over that.

Speaker 6 (32:26):
This is the Fitzi and Whipper with Cape Ritchie podcast.

Speaker 7 (32:29):
Only one sleep till the Olympics, that's pretty exciting. Do
you remember watching the Spice Girls, because I below I do.
At the twenty twelve London Olympics mass.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
It was well.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
I never thought that Baby Spice was that quick, but
for her to get through.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
To the one hundred, I thought, that's an amazing especially
in those shoes, those huge shoes that they.

Speaker 7 (32:54):
Wear iconically British. I mean, it made sense to have
the Spice Girls there. And then after that, of course
it was the reunion. They didn't do it with Posh.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Of course Victoria wasn't there.

Speaker 11 (33:05):
She was she was around.

Speaker 7 (33:07):
She hangs around and I think that they are all
still very social, even if they've had their ups and downs.
But she doesn't need to do that. She has an
incredible beauty brand, fashion and a very wealthy husband.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
An article I read a while ago used to say
they hated touring with Baby Spice because she would use
the bathroom number two's and leave the door open.

Speaker 7 (33:30):
You just made that.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
I wou' just made that up, because that's the kind
of thing you say. What You sit here and think,
how can I contribute to this broadcast moment. I'm going
to I'm going to think and make up a quick
story about Baby Spice because it.

Speaker 7 (33:44):
Always revolves around toilet humor. I thought you'd quite like
this around serious Spice because it involves the taxman. Well,
you like you like to chat kind of money in
business and all of that stuff.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
It counts off.

Speaker 7 (33:57):
Sure this trivia really interested you. So they got back together.
She obviously formed a company to handle the earnings of
their reunion. She made around eight million dollars or something.
God forgetting reunion, but yeah, getting back together. Briefly, they're
the Spice girls. They are at the twenty twelve Olympics.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
I just told you that it's a lot for your union.

Speaker 7 (34:19):
She paid her tax bill of you know, two million
dollars shut down the company. I don't know how any
of this works. And according to the Sun, who only
reports backs the facts, they're continuing to chase her for
a bit of cash. But I would imagine she'd have.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
Are you saying she didn't pay the tax and shut
the company down.

Speaker 7 (34:42):
She paid some tax and they're saying there's lodged. I'm
not saying that sounds like you are. Other people are
saying that it.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
Sounds like what I said about her on the toilet
was quite innocent compared to what you're suggesting. Gosh, thank
god I contributed up the toilet bit.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
They'll make an example of her as well. This is
the thing they if you are well known and you
have a crack at the tax department, they're coming down.

Speaker 7 (35:06):
I remember, don't go after baby spice of a.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Baby.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
He's not a successful reunion.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
That's it's an expensive reunion.

Speaker 7 (35:19):
Are you going to tell an honest story?

Speaker 1 (35:21):
I'm going to make one up, mate, fake news. Sit
here and make one up for the Sun.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Gary O fake news.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Gary Barlow has been attacked over the years by the
tax man. I think there should be a bit of
flexibility on artists.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Who's the worst? Did Wesley Snipes went to jail for
each building? Blade Snipesy his sword in jail because the
god that they.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Would go on? But did he just not decide to
pay any tax?

Speaker 2 (35:48):
No, who's the other big? There was a sock at
No Shakira got done for a text.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Yes quite, she went to prison too, and you know
what they hated about her in prison? Dinner two's with
no doors even worse.

Speaker 7 (36:00):
I think don't have their arm balls in prison.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
What I just said, Tom.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
When we get to this point, I'm out. I think
we should finish the show.

Speaker 8 (36:09):
I'm going to follow your lead. I'm coming with your fits.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Can I come? Guys?

Speaker 7 (36:12):
All right, you can leave the studio, but please don't
follow me up the hallway.
