Apod Shaped Production.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Welcome back to another episode about I A Bad Mum podcast.
We were just chatting before we put the mics on
about our wine consumption, which since having.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Kids has you know, is next level increased immensely. One
would say, my kid's shamey for drinking wine, like they
don't like the smell of it, And that's fine, And
I know, you know, in an ideal world, we shouldn't
be drinking around them, and it's unhealthy habits and all
the rest of it.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
But it's also like kind of their fault.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Yeah, I know that there's big differences in extremity of
what you can and can't do in front of your
kids whose days. Yeah, there's a lot worse than going
on out there in the world other than us picking
up a wine guys and having a simple little wine Yeah,
I think so little veno in the evening.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
But also their generation is growing up to be a
lot healthier than we were.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yeah, I think it will be the habit that it
is for us.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
For them, they would have other things. It's just like
their generation thinks vaping is healthy.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
What the fuck, No, it is not.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
It's not healthy just because it smells like strawberries. You're
not vaping fucking strawberries. Talk about extreme parenting though, I've
told my girls, every time you think about taking a
vape to your mouth, think about a can of fly
spray in your mouth and then pressed down on that
fly spray and suck it back. I was like, because
that's what you're doing, extreme Rachel.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Pick your poison. All of it's bad. Everything is bad,
bad bad.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I found a I was so excited by this, a
zero sugar wine red wine.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I've tried many over the years.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Many and well, this is a couple.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
And then I'm like, why do I feel so hungover
after like a couple of ra I'm like, what have
they replaced the sugar with you?
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Because it makes me feel like shit?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Anyway, never found a good one, and I am now
enjoying one that I found.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
It's called bone dry.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I actually emailed them, right because she's desperate.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I emailed them and I said, hey, would you be able.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
To shame I'm really shame for you.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, Hey, would you be able to send me the
ingredients in the pinan noir and whether there are any
artificial sweetness used?
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
My thing was like okay, So you've taken the sugar out,
so where sweetness coming?
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, yeah, And I'm like, do I want to be drinking?
Speaker 3 (02:55):
No, I'm with you because it's like me, we've talked
about this, like having a coke or a diet coke.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Yeah, there's more shit and bad stuff in your diet
coke than there is in a full strength coke. Like,
don't get me wrong, both bad for you, but this
with the wine, I'm one hundred percent with you. If
they've got artificial sweetness in there, yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Did they reply, Yeah, she did.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
She came back and she said, thanks for reaching out.
We love talking about our wines. Let's dive straight in.
To keep things low sugar and high flavor. We harvest
our grapes at just the right moment when they're perfectly ripen.
Their natural sugars and flavors are spot on. From then,
we ferment the wine until it's completely dry with all
the sugar converted into alcohol. Some wine makers might sneak
(03:34):
in a little residual grape sugar to sweeten the deal,
but not us. We keep it real, letting our wines
stay dry, low in sugar, and one hundred percent delicious.
No shortcuts, no gimmicks, and certainly no additives. Hope that
helps you know.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Even you just reading that out, I know that that's
a chat GBT response.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Do you think it's a lie?
Speaker 3 (03:54):
I feel like it's generic as hell, Like, just read
that first line. Hi, let's jump straight in. Okay, you've
put us through chat GBT. I could tell you that much. Yeah,
but it isn't at all. I think she's answered your question.
She's beaten around the bush a little bit, just sling
it on to other people and what they do.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
To put that through chat GPT, And you're right now
you've brought that to liar.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Do you think the same thing. She must have had
a lot of people asking.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah, so she would have had a lot of people
ask and then hey, this is what we're getting, this
is our product, this is what we're doing. Create me
a generic response to these questions, and then that's your
chat GPT. And then when you get oh, hi, I
just want to know, she goes copy paste, which is
it's not doing anything else other than giving you your answer.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah, so all I needed.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
My whole thing is, if you're talking about hangovers, you're
looking for a preservative free wine. I think it's the
sulfate that gives us the hangovers. If I'm right, you
want like the one that has either got none or
lowest sort of point of sulfate in it and preservatives,
So the preservative free is where it's at.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Is it interesting how long we can talk about wine for?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
I know, I was like, what are we even talking
about kids today? I gotta even think about the subject.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Am I a bad mum for being a tight ass?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
This is a hot topic in your household with your
kids being the age that they're at.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, I have talked about this before, but I got
a text the other day that I was like, I
have to bring this up because the text said at
the start, mom needs to pay me back. Right, So
just a little bit of context, The girls have their
own bank accounts. They both have jobs now, and money
(05:49):
goes into their bank account and out.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Of their back.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
So often they will grab something from tuk shop or
they go to taf on Friday, so they get lunch,
drink here and there, whatever, And then they asked me
to pay them back. Now, I'm okay with that as
long as it's within reason. If you have made a
lunch box for the day and you've just not packed
(06:15):
enough food.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
That's not on me.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
That's not my problem, that's your problem. So if you
need more food and that's for your expense. I have
pushed back on buying bottles of water sometimes, Rache, but
you haven't taken a water bottle. But you've got so
many water You've got the Stanley water bottle.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
But also not my problem. Old enough you have.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
A Stanley water bottle.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I bought my Camart one, but I'm really a lot
less than the Stanley.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
It was nine dollars. It was on special.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I feel like Camart doesn't go on special very often.
It's always on special. In this particular day where I
was after a water bottle that color, you're dollars instead
of fifteen.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah, happy days.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah so good.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Emelia said to me, Mummy should really get a new
water bottle. I was like, I'm happy with my water bottle.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
It goes from the sink to my bedside table and
back to the sink. It's good, We're good.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I don't need sixty five seventy dollars one to do
that job.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Oh just a side note, yesterday I saw Kim Kardashian
walked through her private jet.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I looked at a story or whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
She's another quality Instagram hut that you.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Played on Instagram for about five minutes.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And that's what you watch, I know is whoever pops
up first? I'm like, oh, four stories, and then switch
it off again, feeling really bad about myself.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
About yourself, Glad. I watched that, Glad, iway.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Something inspirational could have you know, had a little look
at mel Robbins and what quotes.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
She's putting up.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Now it's Kim Kardashian going through her private jet. But
I did notice that she had a Stanley water bottle
and she even made mention to yeah, yeah, there's another
Stanley over there. It was a very flippant mention.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
But I was like, no, no, no, she's got shares
in it. For sure.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
She probably aren't it so shares or just being made.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
But everything she don't know. If you were, you would
go in on You probably either created it or you'd
have cash in it. You'd invest in it. Look at it.
It's a hot fad of large cups, yeah, which always
fucking leak. So Kim Kardashian put that on your story.
Fix it. Fix the fucking leaking cup.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
She doesn't mind.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
No, she doesn't because somebody else will clean it in
her private jet.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
But someone is carrying that water bottle on there for her,
putting it in the perfectly beautiful cup holder that.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
She's on the private jet.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah, and then taking it at the end of the day.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah, you have another one in the car. Anyway, back
to reality.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Text from Holly.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Mom needs to pay me back ten dollars missing from
my account.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I don't know what that means.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Five dollars fifty two waters from tuck shop, eight dollars
fifty donuts and then in brackets Amelia made me get them.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
She should lose the money.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Twenty three dollars for macas the other day, thirty six
dollars from Tafe lunch. I'm pretty sure you paid me
thirty dollars, so I'm missing six. Mum also needs to
pay me ten dollars five dollars for a shoulder mass
side I gave her, and five dollars for putting a
video of me going up for a walk on her story.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
I remember you saying that I.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Had to pay five dollars. It was like a funny story.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
It was like we were going for a family walk
and hollidays, so I just come she's bored. I remember saying, oh,
that's funny. Can I put it on my story? And
she went no, And I went please, I just want
to put it on my story and she said na.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
So all right, I'll give you five dollars.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
It's like, yes, done.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
So that's the text I got At the end, it
says please xoxoxoxoxoxo.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
All down that end.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
What's the damage?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Sixty three dollars ninety seven. It's interesting because as parents,
I feel like it's a constant battle between wanting them
to have as much as you can give them, yeah, yeah,
but also not giving them too much, reminding them of
how much money is and what it's worth, but also
(10:20):
not spending their whole child hammering to them about that's
too expensive, we can't afford that.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, because I feel like that said a lot as well.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Yeah, you know, I come from a place of going like,
if I wanted something, I had to buy it with
my own money. But it also taught me how to
use my own money. And it also taught me when
I should and shouldn't limit things, Do you know what
I mean? Like, if I really want something, I would
go out and get it, and it always was like,
felt so much better when you got it yourself, right.
So I think like with Friday lunches and stuff like that,
(10:51):
they're working now. They're also sixteen, so they will have
to come a time where it's like you're going to
hand over the reins to them and go, this is
on you. Now you have to pay for your lunch.
That's real life.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Do you know why I did the other real life?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Yeah, this is on the whole how it feels good
when it's your own money and you've hurt it. And
they definitely feel like that when they get money from
macas and then they spend it on something, they're like, oh,
I feel so good.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
I was like, I've been telling you this for years.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I did decide to introduce a punishment.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
For being rude the other day, and.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I've realized it's the only thing that they really care about,
because I can go, oh, you lost your.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Phone for a day or whatever.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yeah, yeah, whatever, they don't care.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I deducted ten dollars from Holly's account for being rude,
and I said, for everything that you say to me
that's rude, I'm going to deduct another ten dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
You can't do that.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
That's my money.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
I've earn that money.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, no I can't.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
So, yeah, no I have. Yeah, it's a fine. It's
a ten dollar fine.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Well it's funny that you say that, because last night
I got to the point of, like my girls at
the moment, which I'm sure your girls have gone through this,
but it's like that's savage, like when they go they
go at each other kind of thing. But it's always
when I'm not around, and Grace, I've always said, is
the words that hurt the most, Whereas I feel like
Elsie will one day just turn around and punch her
in the nose and then I'll have to deal with
that then. But like she genuinely keeps calling Elsie names
(12:16):
as soon as I've turned around or I'm not there,
and so the current one is asshole, and Elsie actually
genuinely gets really upset about it. And that was sitting
there and she went to call her an asshole in
front of me at the dinner table, and I went,
do you know what, this is a new rule? You know,
when I was a kid, We've talked about this, when
I swore as a kid, I got soap in my mouth.
(12:37):
Then I've talked to other parents. They do different things.
I said, do you know what I'm going to do?
You swear? I said, if you call each other a name,
just a name, and it's just and it's not a
swear word, I'm going to deduct twenty bucks. If you
swear at each other and you call each other a
name that is a swear word, I'm just going to
deduct fifty bucks. I said. I actually am so sick
and tired of asking kindly doing this, trying this, go
(13:00):
down this and good now we won't do this. I
was like, I'm actually over it. So that's the new rules.
I can't be bothered putting soap in your mouth. I
can't change it. If you're going to swear at each other,
I said, but you will be broke. So which one
would you like? Gracie, Oh, you can't do that, I said,
I can, and you just watch me. Yeah, I said,
just watch your account.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Get had to do it yet.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
No, it was only last night that we had this,
which is funny that you're literally saying it and I'm like,
oh my god, yours is so cheap. I know, expensive,
Katie Amountaane's with. I'm so sick of it. I'm so like,
stop just stopping assholes to each other.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yeah, fifty dollars.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Yeah, it says me I should stood up fifty dollars
from my account following the massholes
