Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on Cama ragle Land.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hi guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I can't I'm Laura, I'm Brittany.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Probably is weird hearing from me now because I by
this point have definitely had a baby.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Whoo.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
And to give you a little peek behind the curtain,
which not Laura's curtain, well she spreads a lens.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Sorry, let me give you a little peep behind the labiers.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So this week on radio, we actually had to pre
record this week, and so I did have the week off.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
I wasn't actually on air up until the day that
I gave birth.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
But you know, it was announced that Matt's going to
fill in while I'm away.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
But it was really cute.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
He came on the show this week and he actually,
like you know, was weirdly excited.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
It was like teamines before he got on this I'm
pretty sure he was high something. Something was going on there.
You know what it is.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
It's Matt's coffee order is actually so fucked up that
if you get him in the fifteen minutes after he's
finished his coffee, it's like he's just what he So
he has a triple shot coffee, but he always has
another double shot very shortly after within so within a
few hours of the morning, he has had five shots
of caffee.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That's actually I'm pretty sure that's like not medical guideline.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
The weird thing about Matt is like Matt does not
do drugs, He does not drink. He doesn't do anything
other than like really goes hard on caffeine.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Okay, well, thank you about dating on Matt's cofee or
I will make sure I have him at five shot
coffee rest. Yeah, Laura has had a baby, so I
hopefully I don't think I would have met her by
now because I will be with Ben.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
So it's weird.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
It's like we're talking about it. I know she's in
the universe right now, but I'm on the.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Other side of the world. It's all very strange.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, I mean, hopefully you were there for the birth,
so we'll know more. And like we said that, we've
been saying all week, as soon as we know more,
we'll share.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
With you if you like, did we keep joking about
you going to labor early, if I go into labor tomorrow,
if you had to give birth now. So my sister
went into labor five weeks early and had a baby
within forty minutes. So if that happened to you and
you had a baby here and I helped you, would
you give it.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Some kind of like name from me, like a middle name.
Maybe it's may Or.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I was just about to say, I love you, dearly,
but your middle name is Mayo. And as much as
I like, I will love a sentimental name, Poppy Mayo
ain't hit in the sides for me. Poppy Mayo sounds
like something you get in the condoment's aisle, Like it
really is that.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Said dealy aisle. That's a gore mate deli spread Poppy Mayo.
Look this week. How do you feel about it?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
If you went to a wedding and you were put
like on a laminated sheet like a menu, but it
was like a singles menu, so every single person that
was at the wedding, every guest, was on one separate
sheet so that you could hand it out and you
knew exactly who you could approach.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I think if it's done in a way where it's
sensitive to the people who are single and not shaming them,
it could actually be really really beneficial.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
I don't think there's arrows like haha. Lose a single
aisle fur.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Like, it's like when you have a kid's table at
a birthday party, but actually they just have the singles table.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
They put them all together. That could work as well.
That genius. Anyway, let's get into the show.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Laura pictured this. You're at the airport. You've just gotten
off a plane with me. Let's just say me.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I've done that before. I can visualize this.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, but there is a connecting flight that you guys
are running for and you need to make.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So you're running through the airport. But one of this
is faster. Let's say you. Let's say you.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
How about we say you, because I am eight months pregnant,
so I reckon.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
You would be able to beat me. Okay, you and
I set off. We've gotten off a plane. You and
I set off. We're like quick run like we've got
to make the flight.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
So we're running. But I'm faster than you. You're waddling
behind me with your pregnant belly. Actually you're not pregnant.
That takes away from it. You're just not pregnant.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I make the plane, I know, because that makes it
worse for me. I'm on such a journey with this.
I know I don't stick with me.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I make the connecting flight, but I don't look back
for you, and I don't wait for you.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Are you mad at me? Or would you rather as
both miss the flight?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Well, okay, all right, at the variables, because variables here.
If we both got off the plane, we're both fully
able and capable people like I'm not eight months pregnant.
If you ran off and just dashed off and left
me to lug my bags by myself and waddle to
the airport, like to the next term, and then you
boarded the plane and didn't even ask the gate to
wait for me, I'd be pretty pissed.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
No, okay, I've said, wait, you just didn't make it.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
But if we were like if I wasn't pregnant, we're
both the same, and we both got off and you
were like, we're going to miss it, and you start
running and I don't run, then that's on me.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I think, so go for gold.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Yeah, so you think it's okay, If like you would
rather your friends make the plane and you miss it
because you went fast enough, then everyone missed the plane.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I don't know. I need to know why you're asking
me this first. Give me the context.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Well, it happened to someone online, and it really got
me thinking, would I be mad if I was in
this position?
Speaker 1 (04:35):
So I'll just tell you. So she's basically asked, am
I the a whole? Like all my feelings justified? Because
I'm hurt? I do love that reddit thread. Yeah, so
there were like four of them.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
They boarded a plane together. They got off, but they
were borded.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
In different sections. You know, it's like amb can disembark first. Yeah,
maybe someone's at the front of the plane, someone's going back.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Yeah, But they all knew they only had like a
really quick forty minute layover to navigate this huge airport
and get to the connecting flight. And so they got
off and they started running just on their own, like
they all knew their.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Got to run. Well, they had the same responsibility.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
You all know your flight is in forty minutes, you
all know the gate number, like you all have the
same information.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Anyway, so these girls just legged it to the next flight.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
But they didn't look back for this one other particular girl.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
But I guess they all just assumed it was like
the amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Race and it's like every man for themselves and they
get there without sort of looking for her, messaging her,
seeing where she is whatever. So they bought the plane,
and now she has come online saying, my feeling's justified
to think that this is cooked of my friends to do,
like to run ahead without me and try to board
a plane not even knowing if I'm going to make
it or if they're going to continue the holiday without
(05:43):
they not.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Well, you know, when you get to the gate, did
they not tell their air flight hostesses to wait, like
one of our friends is coming.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
They're going to be here in twenty seconds. She said.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
They didn't even ask the flight attendants to not to
fire the next gate.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
There was an aphole move. Yeah, see the thing, it's
an ahole.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Well, I mean, look what I want my friends to
miss their flight because I am not moving as quickly.
If I'm fully able and capable, then no, I don't
want them to. But also I think whoever gets there first,
that it is like the unspoken rule that you say,
oh my god, I'm so sorry, Like we've just gotten
off an interconnecting flight. I've got two friends coming, They're
gonna be here in a minute. You know you do that,
you do you due diligence? Did she make it on
(06:20):
the flight or she didn't make it on the fight
she missed it.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Well, okay, So firstly, I personally think that it's okay
you would leave me for dead Bridge. Yes I would.
I would, But I would want you to leave me
as well if it was the difference between you getting
to go on your pre paid, pre booked holiday because
I was rolling.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Around whatever I was doing your holiday without your friend
because you left them at the interconnecting airport. But anyway,
I would say go for it, Laura. Would I be devoed, Yes,
but it's on me.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
But at the end of the day, the funniest part
about this is she actually did make the flight.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
She's just upset that she may not have made it.
So she made the fly. They all got on the fly.
But this woman is just upset the fact that her
friends tried.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
To go on without her and like didn't. She even
says they didn't even look back, which I think is
so dramatic. No, I think that this is silly. Then.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Look, I would say a fair assumption is that they
probably got to the gate, they checked themselves in, and
they were like, hey, our friend is coming, she's one
minute away. The person who's written this in is assuming
that none of that was done like there. I think
there are very few friends who were just going to
run off the plane, never look back at dawn, and
like never speak to you again. Firstly, you made it
onto the flight. You're fine. I think we're all being
(07:28):
a bit of a princess. Yet it would be very
different if, say, like you run away from your nana.
She did say, you know, you're like one of us
is going to get on this flight.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Then she did say your own bags.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I tried to keep pace, but I found it difficult
after a long fo.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Get a grip, yeah, get a grip anyway. I remember
this one time we were traveling britt and we we
misjudged when our return flight was and we got to.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
The airport with very little to spare.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
To be fair, we definitely kept up with each other,
but it was a bit of an every man for
themselves situation.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I tried to shake you, God, but you weren't as
heavily pregnant, so you can keeper.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Laura.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I cannot believe we are here at this next chapter
of our relationship.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It is time we have been talking about it all show.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I think that look, I don't want to go on
maternity leave. I actually don't, but I.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Do want to have the baby because I can't physically
keep it in any longer, like I'm so uncomfortable. But
we've been teasing LL show that I will be having
some time off after the end of this week.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Which checks out.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
That's what people do when they have birthed something out
of their vagina will Usually.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
People check out earlier than this.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I think I'm gonna have this baby potentially Tuesday next week,
and I'm still.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
On air until Friday.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I been, to be honest, I've been in denial and
I haven't really thought about what it means for me,
probably because it's not about me, but it sort of
is so like I just didn't really understand that it meant, like,
oh my god, Lord's having a baby, that it means
I would either a be left to host this show
alone or b do the unthinkable and replace you.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
And I thought you're about to say or have a
whole Also, I.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Tried to ask for a holiday to my own maternity leave.
They said, no, you're not pregnant.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
They said no, okay, So we have been teasing that
we do, in fact have a replacement. There have been
many names that have been thrown around this show. Someone said,
Russell Crowe, I think we're aiming a little bit high.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Can I say when we chose to replace you? Because
they said I couldn't go on holiday? I put a
call out and I said, who wants to replace Laura
Burnaby my co host? I cannot tell you how many
people were so quick to replace you, Laura.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
People. They were walking all over you. People.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
You know who can amy who this is so I
can send them a really nasty message afterwards.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Well, we had one of Australia's most loved dads, who
Larry M.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Dong.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, he would also do a great job though. Yeah fine,
I don't mind being replaced by Larry M.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Tody from Neighbors, Yeah Tody Chris Hemsworth. He really wanted it, actually,
but I shame. I don't think I could work opposite him.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Yeah, I feel like your huband would get jealous. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I just wouldn't be able to concentrate. So I vetoed
that even though he really wants. Well, look, I think
we have ragged it out long enough. We do actually
have the replacement. Laura burn Here in studio, sitting right next.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
To me and drum roll please. The new host of
the pickup is Manny Job. It's so good to be here, Laura,
get out the door. This is my place now.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
We did keep it as close to home as humanly possible.
We decided to just get my husband to fill in.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
The interview process was very rigorous. Do you know what
they said?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
They did ask if we could all do a chemistry
test to see if you have and I was like,
I am married to the man.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I think we've got some chemists.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
We had sex, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I mean I was trying to bring on labor, get
this baby out. No, it was a rigorous test. What
did you have to pass to get in here now?
Speaker 3 (10:53):
No, it literally just said just get here for three
o'clock and you're fine. But actually, when I need to
hear double check, when do I actually start?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Well, I mean, I'm having the baby on hoping Tuesday.
We are like, I think I'm getting injuiced. We can't
be sure, we can't be sure. It could happen in
the next few days.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
I don't need your life story, just need to know
what data. You don't even know what day we're having
this baby. Hawpy times.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
It keeps changing the goalposter forever moving, so I can't
keep track.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
It can't move that much. It is that week. Gosh.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So because we're getting in juice, Matt keeps asking for
the specific date and I'm like, tell me.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I'm like, I don't know. It's dependent on.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
I'm like, what do you mean you don't know when
you're having a baby.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I was like, it's dependent on the hospital. But he
keeps booking things on days and I was like, you know,
you have to keep three days free, but.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
The week man to get the baby. When do I start?
When I tell you what? Does anyone know what's happening?
No one actually knows. We're taking all taking a week
of paternity leave.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
How do you feel about the fact that you're going
to be juggling a newborn baby and also a brand new,
sparky radio career.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I could not ask for anything more right now.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
It's a dream come true. How do you feel about
you your co host?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
That's the big question that everyone me included has been asking.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You know, we get along so well, We've always had
a great relationship, and you know, to sit alongside you
on air three pm.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's three pm pick up there's three pm pickup.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It's just I'm so honored, I'm flattered and I can't
wait to see where our relationship goes from here.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
I can. Let's not let it go anywhere else.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
We had had a tumultuous relationship, which I'm sure we
want us well. Everything was great until you out of
my wedding to Australia before I got married.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
But I was clothing it. I was helping you.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
For anyone who doesn't know the behind the scenes of this,
Britt was trying to keep the date of her wedding
private and Matt accidentally on his podcast accident downloads.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Do you know what I say?
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Almost downloaded episode ever, Matt.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Said to me recently, so he's actually done three things
on his podcast where he gave away Britt's wedding date,
he gave away the first name of our baby, and
then recently he gave away the.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Middle aim of our baby.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I've not talked about these things on any platform, and
Matt says to me casually goes got our downloads are
en up?
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Yah?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Well played though, because he got himself a radio kick to.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
The listeners of the pick Up strap on in You're
gonna find out a lot more about Laura than you anticipated.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You're not even welcome in the birthing suitet now. I
don't want to be there. I've got a radio show. Now,
this is where I live.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I just want it to be known whilst I'm on
maternity leave. I take no responsibility for.
Speaker 1 (13:26):

up their kids from school. So no, there's no beers,
but there are poppers, juice boxes.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
We'll tell you what when you want, We'll put you
out of your misery. Maddie Jay is going to be
on the pick up from October six.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Everyone, Laura, add that to my calendar. Added to your
own calendar, Lawsy, Do you have any unreasonable fears or phobias?
Speaker 4 (14:22):
I guess I want to say phobia, but phobia is
a bit different, but like an unreasonable fear.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah, yes I do.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I don't have a phobia like I don't have like
a clinical phobia where I'll run out the door screaming.
I cannot be in the same room as someone brushing
their teeth or chewing chewing gum.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That is elational, not mine. Is Dolmarty's. Oh I love
chase me around a party with Doll Marty That. It's
the feel and the texture in my fingers and my mouth. Grace,
can we please get a tin of.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Dom Marti's and I'm going to throw one at briton
tomorrow's show.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
We did that last year. I forgot. Did I throw
it at her on the show?
Speaker 5 (14:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You did. I'm really pregnant and my memory is.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Not good anymore. Everything's gone down to gurglar.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
I found this really interesting.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
According to Psychology Today, at least sixty percent of adults
admit to having an unreasonable fear, and then it went
into like a phobia is the number one most googled
phobia in Australia.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I was gobsmacked at these phobias.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
I went down a phobia rabbit hole of things I
didn't even know existed.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I disagree. I think phobias are totally reasonable. The reason
why I have a deep inherent fear of chewing gum
and it makes me just like it makes my skin crawl.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Sorry, I did think we moved on before. Sorry, I
will tell you.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
When I was little, I almost died from choking on
chewing gum and since then I can't. I can't have it,
I can't be near at my Yeah, I end up
in hospital. It was really tragic. Took a serious So
glad that I'm still here to tell the tale.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I am glad you're here. I don't want to revisit that.
Let's move on, Okay.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
So the number one most searched phobia in Australia is
agora phobia, which is the fear.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Of leaving your house. I believe or not, that's the
number one.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
I thought it was a fear of symmetrical little dots,
So I was really wrong anyway, that was really random.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Well, no, the number two most searched is troop of phobia,
which is a fear of holes.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yes, that's the little dots one. I didn't know people
were so scared of holes.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Okay, so there's what what is happening there is this
It's not a flower, but it's kind of like a
seed pod that you sometimes get in floral arrangements. And
I remember I posted on Instagram it's beautiful bunch of
flowers that I had received, and it had this random
little I think it's called a lotus pot and it's
got these little holes in the top of it. The
amount of people who messaged me and were like, oh
(16:32):
my god, I am so triggered by that flower.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
I was like, that's weird. How do you get through life?
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Well, I thought of the brand new pickup benchmark and
your game Brittany's Phobia Quiz. What I'm going to do, Laura,
is I have gone so deep to find the weirdest,
most unusual strangers phobias. It's three options, multile choice. You're
gonna pick what you think it is and I'm gonna
score you.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Can I call a friend, grace you my backup? No?
I wrote these questions.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
All right, Iraqi, beauty o phobia, it's a fear of
beautiful spiders.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
So is it a a fear of a spider crawling
into your ear at night? B A fear of peanut
butter sticking to the roof of your mouth, or see
fear of the number eight.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I think it's a fear of a spider crawling into
your ear.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Wrong, it is the fear of peanut butter sticking to
the roof of your mouth. The weirdest phobia ever. Do
you know when it's like really dry and you can't
get off the roof.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
What's way worse than that is the fear of dry
milo hitting you in the back of the throat.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
That's a real fear. Yeah, okay, we've all been there.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Nomophobia, fear of homophobia, fear of the sound of squeaky shoes,
fear of being without your mobile phone.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I'm pretty sure homophobia is the phobia of homosexuals.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Yes, I'm so glad you put Is it a fear
of the fear of that?
Speaker 1 (17:54):
No, I don't. I don't think it is. I think
it's sweet shoes. Wrong, fear of being with out your
mobile phone. You would have that I'm really bad at
this game. Plutophobia fear of the planet. Is it a
fear of outer space? Fear of money or fear of
having too much responsibility? Fear of too much money? Yes,
(18:19):
one point on fantastic. All right, what's the next one?
I'm on a roll. Now you've got one.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Xanthrophobia fear of gardening, fear of roll escapes.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Fear of the color yellow. I think it's the color yellow.
I just took a little while to warm up to this.
I think I'm going to be good at it now.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
All right? What about this one? Man hit me?
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Global phobia fear of traveling in a plane, fear of balloons,
fear of round fruit.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Oh it's tricky, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I am gonna say being in a plane, fear of balloons.
I was going to go that one, and then I
second guessed myself.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
You might get this one.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Pogonophobia fear of beards, fear of pogo sticks, fear of
the smell of ant, the smell of ants.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Wrong, damn it. Pgono phobia is a fear of beards.
I don't have that. I like a beard.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
You climb inside of it and wrap it around me.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
This one I think you'll get. I threw an easy
one in for you.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Phobophobia Is it the fear of having a phobia, fear
of people being afraid of you, or fear of talking
on the phone.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I think it's the fear of having a phobia. Yes,
three on the boards.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Surely you can't have a fear of having a phobia,
because then it's not really a phobia, right, but you are.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
This is from science to But if you're.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
So frightened that you're going to be frightened about something,
just stop being frightened about all of the things.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
And then you're fine. That is said by someone that
doesn't have phobophobia. No, I don't have phobophobia. Sorry. Last one, yep,
this is all or nothing. You can win. You can
get one hundred percent if you get this. I like
that the rules just keep changing on this game. It's
really into it.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Lecano phobia, fear of vegetables, fear of people named Lachlan,
or a fear of the lockness monster.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
I'm gonna say vegetables, and she's taking a hot.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I know so much about deep seated fears. Isn't that
so unusual? It's very sad.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I think it would be very, very hard to get
through life having like a debilitating.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Fear of something that other people think is irrational. Because
the fear was Lachlan, and he's like, hy, I'm pretty high.
I'm Lochlan.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
My first boyfriend's name was Lachlan. So I know I
don't have that. He was nice.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
I don't know of all the boyfriends, I have nothing
bad to say about him. He was a lovely boy.
That's wonderful news about your relationship. Hissury, Okay, cool. If
you have a phobia, call us up. Now we are
talking medical mishaps.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
What did you go to the hospital for or to
the doctor's for and you were accidentally misdiagnosed?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Maybe something even crazier happened.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Now.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
The reason why we're talking about this is because something
happened to me quite a few years ago. I think
i'd blocked it from the trauma. Somehow it came up
in conversation and I honestly forget how wild this was.
So I was in my twenties and I had really
bad back pain, like and it was getting progressively worse.
And I remember going to the doctors and the doctor
(21:10):
did some tests and the doctor was like, go straight
to hospital.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Do not pasco, do not collect two hundred dollars. Just
go to the hospital.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
And I got in there and I got admitted, and
they did some scans and stuff, and they did like
an ulchsound and whatever other scans, and I got the
results back and there was.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
An issue with my gall bladder.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
So my gall bladder was completely filled with gallstones.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I think I was like twenty six at the.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Time, explaining to the back pain, Well, it's like pain like
all around my soft organs, you.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Know, in this like around my back.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Anyway, it was like spiral pain. But I remember so
vividly him even being like, gosh, it's crazy. You literally
have the gall bladder of a ninety year old woman, and.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
So this is dire. Yeah, I was prepped for surgery.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I went in and I did like the clear liquids
diet overnight. The surgeon came in the next day, sat
on the foot of my bed, talked.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Me through what was going to happen.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
And at the time, I'd just been through a breakup
with a guy who worked in hospitals, so like he
was also a different field, different everything, and I was like,
I feel really lonely and sad, I'm just gonna call him.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Also, you were probably thinking, oh, this is my way
to connect with my head boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Read definitely want me back when I'm in a medical gown.
So anyway, he came in and he was like, it's
just so weird. He's like, it doesn't really make sense.
I want to have a look at your scans, and
so he got my I can't remember for his ultra
sound or something else, but he got my scans and
he was having a look at them and he goes,
I just don't believe that this can be your golbladder.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
He's like, it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Make sense for you to have that many gallstones. You're
not that unhealthy. Anyway, they did some digging and it
turns out it was, in fact not my scan. Mine
had been mistaken with the woman who was in the
bed next to me, who was a nine year old lady,
and she needed to go and have her gallbladder removed,
and had that been three hours different, I would have
gone in for a surgery.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
That I absolutely didn't need.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Poor Mary, They're like, Mary, you look like a twenty
year day.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I had a kidney infection and a bladder in section
which I'm pretty sure the ex boyfriend gave.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Me a CIRTI and an STI at the same time.
That could have been a bad ending. It really was.
It really was.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Although we've got Eloise on the line. Eloise, what was
your medical mishap?
Speaker 6 (23:19):
So in twenty eighteen, I had a reconstruction surgery of
my right rotator cuff. It was meant to just be
day surgery, so I went in in true day surgery form.
Everybody's running late. My doctor comes and sees me, marks
up my shoulder, says this shoulder, don't operate on the
other obviously, and my neth assist was running late. They're like,
we'll meet you in the list. He'll give you a
(23:41):
nerve block. We'll go in, we'll do the surgery.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Lift.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
We're yeah, like in the lift into the to go
into the theater. So like they're in the elevator and
he's just like, we're going straight into the theater. We'll
do your nerve block here, we'll do the surgery. Everything
will be great. So he comes in quickly, checks my details,
gives me a nerve block, and that's really the last
thing I remember until I wake up. I wake up
(24:05):
in complete agony, feeling like I've just had my arm
cut open, which obviously I had, but the anithssis put
a nerve block in the wrong arm, so they blocked
my left arm and they cut open my right and
I woke up being like crying, being like this, I
don't think this is right, Like I can feel everything,
(24:26):
and they're like, well, kind of funny story, but you
can as funny.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
This is a kin to the urban legend of the
person who went in for an amputation and they amputated
the wrong legs.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
That's not an urban legend, no, I know, it's it's
a real story. It happened at the hospital I worked out.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
I have worked at a hospital that took something that
they weren't space to.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
It took something from someone of their words. Yeah, it
is a real thing that happens. Wow, human error. Hey,
you get anyone.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
They do it all the time and that's why they
mark up your shoulders and like everything saying not this
leg But so it didn't turn out to your day surgery.
I had to stay in overnight because I had no
arm working because one was nerve blocked incorrectly and one
was cut open, and I was maxed out on pain
relief already, so I was like excruciating for the twenty
four hours. I had everybody in the hospital coming to
(25:13):
apologize and obviously getting me to not sue.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Oh my god, elo is you poor things.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I know you don't always get presented with these opportunities,
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Like we've had so many of them come in. Some
of them we absolutely can't share or we might get sued.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
There was a while there that we were talking about
weddings every week because I had multiple You had so
many weddings. We talked about every type of like wedding taboo,
wedding themes, wedding rights and wrongs, the do's and don'ts.
But there's something that's just recently gone viral online. It's
gone millions of views, and it's a very unconventional practice.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
That potentially we could bring into.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Weddings to better suit all of our single friends in
the hopes that maybe they will find love. And I
say this because we all know that weddings can sometimes
be They can sometimes be that romantic meeting point, right,
Like everyone's just watched the bride and groom say how
much they love each other, and then you look across
the room and you're single and you see another single
guy and look, it's the platform for love.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'm pretty sure you bet someone on my wasn't love.
I didn't meet someone. You Matt's cousin, your husband's cousin
kissed me. I was like what because see love? Because
the only other single person there, and he's like you exactly.
I was the bold.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
I was best on ground for the singles people because
I'm the only single person.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The thing is is that the singles at weddings always
managed to sniff each other out right, it happens. Well,
there's a couple who has made it that little bit easier.
So they created a laminated sheet at their wedding that
says tonight's most eligible, flirty, fabulous and potential for your
future plus one.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
And they have put a photograph.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Of every single single person that is at the wedding
to make it easier for them to find each other.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Would you like this.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
If you're a single person going to a wedding or
would you be absolutely mortified?
Speaker 1 (27:04):
And like, I mean, is it akin to public shaming?
I mean, I feel like I have two feelings about it.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
I think it's a pretty good idea as long as
everyone has been asked if it's okay, Like if every
single person on this list consented, consented, if they were like, Hey,
we're gonna this could be funny. It's a great idea.
We're gonna put a singles out. Are you happy with it?
It's a problem if they're not. But if somebody asked
me and I was like, yeah, then I think it's
funny because you know what happens at a wedding. The
(27:31):
number one thing you're asking if you're single is like, oh,
wonder if that person's single, Like, because you want to
meet people, right, So this is just like a foolproof way.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
You've locked eyes with someone across the room, you're like,
he's cute.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Won if you're singlet out my list and you're like, oh, yep,
he is number five B in row five B.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Do you know what's more embarrassing, though, is if you
walk over to the laminated piece of paper.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
That's stuck on the wall to.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Check right, because it's not like they've got a little
pocket card to take around with them. It is next
to what you would assume, so like, you know, how
you go up and it's got like your table numbers
and everything. Next that is this laminated picture frame that's
full of everyone's faces like a still photo.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
This that it was passed around the reception like a
wine list, like you could choose from it. But I'm
looking at some of the comments here. Someone said they
were going to take back their gift. That's a big call.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Some felt humiliated that it's public shame in disguise as cute,
and then others said it was genius and they would
love it. I think if everything runs on board and
it's consensual, it's a bit all I had fun, Like totally,
what's the difference with your on dating app? You can
pull up a dating app and put your vicinity of
like one hundred meters around you, and you can see
all these.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
People, like I want my dating app circle to be
only the people that are at this wedding, And is
that guy here?
Speaker 1 (28:35):
I look?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I mean the people who are having a real poop
who at it are not people who were.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
At the wedding.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I would assume if you're doing this, you've kind of
vetted it with your friends.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
It's fine, but I also think it's cute.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
The only thing I guess, like maybe I would be
upset about is if I was not one, I didn't
want to be like actively looking for someone at that wedding,
and so I'd been like kind of just dumped in
with the rest of the people, like if I wasn't
looking to date, I don't want that sign above my
head like I am single.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
But also I think it's because like sometimes.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
We look at speing single and dating as just being like, oh,
you feel as though, like, oh, here we go again,
I'm that single person at this event, everyone's gonna pass one,
and it can be really hard.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
I think the reason this is different is there's like
often you go to a wedding and there's only.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
A couple of people that are single.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
And I say that because I went to a wedding
and I remember being mortified.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
It was time to throw the bouquet and everyone was like, oh.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
The single people come out, and I was like, I
don't want to do it. I don't want to do it,
and I was like, I'm not going out. And then
there were you know, isn't that what happened at my wedding?
And it was yes, I was trying to say, it
was it was.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Just you that came out.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yeah, there was like five people that came out, and
then Matt's cousin was like, shield be which's good.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
It's happened twice. I was trying to not say it
was your wedding.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
Yes, I was humiliated your wedding, but this other way,
both weddings.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I was humiliated because the pool of single people were
so small. So all of a sudden, you walk out,
there's there's a circle of people looking at you, and
there's two of you that are supposed.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
To fight over a bouquet to like, please somebody picked
me in the future and I get married anyway, I
remember being more. But there's twenty four people on this
singles list that was being passed around.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It's a great meeting. On that list are pretty high,
so I'd be about
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It all right, Well, look, maybe you can if you're
getting married and you got a lot of single friends,
maybe you can play Cupid and just return the favor.
This episode was recorded on Cama ragle Land.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hi guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I can't I'm Laura, I'm Brittany.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Probably is weird hearing from me now because I by
this point have definitely had a baby.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Whoo.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
And to give you a little peek behind the curtain,
which not Laura's curtain, well she spreads a lens.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Sorry, let me give you a little peep behind the labiers.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So this week on radio, we actually had to pre
record this week, and so I did have the week off.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
I wasn't actually on air up until the day that
I gave birth.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
But you know, it was announced that Matt's going to
fill in while I'm away.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
But it was really cute.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
He came on the show this week and he actually,
like you know, was weirdly excited.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
It was like teamines before he got on this I'm
pretty sure he was high something. Something was going on there.
You know what it is.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
It's Matt's coffee order is actually so fucked up that
if you get him in the fifteen minutes after he's
finished his coffee, it's like he's just what he So
he has a triple shot coffee, but he always has
another double shot very shortly after within so within a
few hours of the morning, he has had five shots
of caffee.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That's actually I'm pretty sure that's like not medical guideline.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
The weird thing about Matt is like Matt does not
do drugs, He does not drink. He doesn't do anything
other than like really goes hard on caffeine.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Okay, well, thank you about dating on Matt's cofee or
I will make sure I have him at five shot
coffee rest. Yeah, Laura has had a baby, so I
hopefully I don't think I would have met her by
now because I will be with Ben.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
So it's weird.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
It's like we're talking about it. I know she's in
the universe right now, but I'm on the.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Other side of the world. It's all very strange.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, I mean, hopefully you were there for the birth,
so we'll know more. And like we said that, we've
been saying all week, as soon as we know more,
we'll share.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
With you if you like, did we keep joking about
you going to labor early, if I go into labor tomorrow,
if you had to give birth now. So my sister
went into labor five weeks early and had a baby
within forty minutes. So if that happened to you and
you had a baby here and I helped you, would
you give it.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Some kind of like name from me, like a middle name.
Maybe it's may Or.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I was just about to say, I love you, dearly,
but your middle name is Mayo. And as much as
I like, I will love a sentimental name, Poppy Mayo
ain't hit in the sides for me. Poppy Mayo sounds
like something you get in the condoment's aisle, Like it
really is that.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Said dealy aisle. That's a gore mate deli spread Poppy Mayo.
Look this week. How do you feel about it?
Speaker 4 (02:19):
If you went to a wedding and you were put
like on a laminated sheet like a menu, but it
was like a singles menu, so every single person that
was at the wedding, every guest, was on one separate
sheet so that you could hand it out and you
knew exactly who you could approach.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I think if it's done in a way where it's
sensitive to the people who are single and not shaming them,
it could actually be really really beneficial.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
I don't think there's arrows like haha. Lose a single
aisle fur.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Like, it's like when you have a kid's table at
a birthday party, but actually they just have the singles table.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
They put them all together. That could work as well.
That genius. Anyway, let's get into the show.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Laura pictured this. You're at the airport. You've just gotten
off a plane with me. Let's just say me.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I've done that before. I can visualize this.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, but there is a connecting flight that you guys
are running for and you need to make.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So you're running through the airport. But one of this
is faster. Let's say you. Let's say you.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
How about we say you, because I am eight months pregnant,
so I reckon.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
You would be able to beat me. Okay, you and
I set off. We've gotten off a plane. You and
I set off. We're like quick run like we've got
to make the flight.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
So we're running. But I'm faster than you. You're waddling
behind me with your pregnant belly. Actually you're not pregnant.
That takes away from it. You're just not pregnant.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I make the plane, I know, because that makes it
worse for me. I'm on such a journey with this.
I know I don't stick with me.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I make the connecting flight, but I don't look back
for you, and I don't wait for you.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Are you mad at me? Or would you rather as
both miss the flight?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Well, okay, all right, at the variables, because variables here.
If we both got off the plane, we're both fully
able and capable people like I'm not eight months pregnant.
If you ran off and just dashed off and left
me to lug my bags by myself and waddle to
the airport, like to the next term, and then you
boarded the plane and didn't even ask the gate to
wait for me, I'd be pretty pissed.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
No, okay, I've said, wait, you just didn't make it.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
But if we were like if I wasn't pregnant, we're
both the same, and we both got off and you
were like, we're going to miss it, and you start
running and I don't run, then that's on me.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I think, so go for gold.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Yeah, so you think it's okay, If like you would
rather your friends make the plane and you miss it
because you went fast enough, then everyone missed the plane.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I don't know. I need to know why you're asking
me this first. Give me the context.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Well, it happened to someone online, and it really got
me thinking, would I be mad if I was in
this position?
Speaker 1 (04:35):
So I'll just tell you. So she's basically asked, am
I the a whole? Like all my feelings justified? Because
I'm hurt? I do love that reddit thread. Yeah, so
there were like four of them.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
They boarded a plane together. They got off, but they
were borded.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
In different sections. You know, it's like amb can disembark first. Yeah,
maybe someone's at the front of the plane, someone's going back.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
Yeah, But they all knew they only had like a
really quick forty minute layover to navigate this huge airport
and get to the connecting flight. And so they got
off and they started running just on their own, like
they all knew their.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Got to run. Well, they had the same responsibility.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
You all know your flight is in forty minutes, you
all know the gate number, like you all have the
same information.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Anyway, so these girls just legged it to the next flight.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
But they didn't look back for this one other particular girl.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
But I guess they all just assumed it was like
the amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Race and it's like every man for themselves and they
get there without sort of looking for her, messaging her,
seeing where she is whatever. So they bought the plane,
and now she has come online saying, my feeling's justified
to think that this is cooked of my friends to do,
like to run ahead without me and try to board
a plane not even knowing if I'm going to make
it or if they're going to continue the holiday without
(05:43):
they not.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Well, you know, when you get to the gate, did
they not tell their air flight hostesses to wait, like
one of our friends is coming.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
They're going to be here in twenty seconds. She said.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
They didn't even ask the flight attendants to not to
fire the next gate.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
There was an aphole move. Yeah, see the thing, it's
an ahole.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Well, I mean, look what I want my friends to
miss their flight because I am not moving as quickly.
If I'm fully able and capable, then no, I don't
want them to. But also I think whoever gets there first,
that it is like the unspoken rule that you say,
oh my god, I'm so sorry, Like we've just gotten
off an interconnecting flight. I've got two friends coming, They're
gonna be here in a minute. You know you do that,
you do you due diligence? Did she make it on
(06:20):
the flight or she didn't make it on the fight
she missed it.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Well, okay, So firstly, I personally think that it's okay
you would leave me for dead Bridge. Yes I would.
I would, But I would want you to leave me
as well if it was the difference between you getting
to go on your pre paid, pre booked holiday because
I was rolling.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Around whatever I was doing your holiday without your friend
because you left them at the interconnecting airport. But anyway,
I would say go for it, Laura. Would I be devoed, Yes,
but it's on me.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
But at the end of the day, the funniest part
about this is she actually did make the flight.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
She's just upset that she may not have made it.
So she made the fly. They all got on the fly.
But this woman is just upset the fact that her
friends tried.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
To go on without her and like didn't. She even
says they didn't even look back, which I think is
so dramatic. No, I think that this is silly. Then.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Look, I would say a fair assumption is that they
probably got to the gate, they checked themselves in, and
they were like, hey, our friend is coming, she's one
minute away. The person who's written this in is assuming
that none of that was done like there. I think
there are very few friends who were just going to
run off the plane, never look back at dawn, and
like never speak to you again. Firstly, you made it
onto the flight. You're fine. I think we're all being
(07:28):
a bit of a princess. Yet it would be very
different if, say, like you run away from your nana.
She did say, you know, you're like one of us
is going to get on this flight.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Then she did say your own bags.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I tried to keep pace, but I found it difficult
after a long fo.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Get a grip, yeah, get a grip anyway. I remember
this one time we were traveling britt and we we
misjudged when our return flight was and we got to.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
The airport with very little to spare.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
To be fair, we definitely kept up with each other,
but it was a bit of an every man for
themselves situation.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I tried to shake you, God, but you weren't as
heavily pregnant, so you can keeper.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Laura.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I cannot believe we are here at this next chapter
of our relationship.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
It is time we have been talking about it all show.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I think that look, I don't want to go on
maternity leave. I actually don't, but I.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Do want to have the baby because I can't physically
keep it in any longer, like I'm so uncomfortable. But
we've been teasing LL show that I will be having
some time off after the end of this week.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Which checks out.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
That's what people do when they have birthed something out
of their vagina will Usually.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
People check out earlier than this.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I think I'm gonna have this baby potentially Tuesday next week,
and I'm still.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
On air until Friday.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I been, to be honest, I've been in denial and
I haven't really thought about what it means for me,
probably because it's not about me, but it sort of
is so like I just didn't really understand that it meant, like,
oh my god, Lord's having a baby, that it means
I would either a be left to host this show
alone or b do the unthinkable and replace you.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
And I thought you're about to say or have a
whole Also, I.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Tried to ask for a holiday to my own maternity leave.
They said, no, you're not pregnant.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
They said no, okay, So we have been teasing that
we do, in fact have a replacement. There have been
many names that have been thrown around this show. Someone said,
Russell Crowe, I think we're aiming a little bit high.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Can I say when we chose to replace you? Because
they said I couldn't go on holiday? I put a
call out and I said, who wants to replace Laura
Burnaby my co host? I cannot tell you how many
people were so quick to replace you, Laura.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
People. They were walking all over you. People.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
You know who can amy who this is so I
can send them a really nasty message afterwards.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Well, we had one of Australia's most loved dads, who
Larry M.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Dong.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, he would also do a great job though. Yeah fine,
I don't mind being replaced by Larry M.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Tody from Neighbors, Yeah Tody Chris Hemsworth. He really wanted it, actually,
but I shame. I don't think I could work opposite him.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Yeah, I feel like your huband would get jealous. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I just wouldn't be able to concentrate. So I vetoed
that even though he really wants. Well, look, I think
we have ragged it out long enough. We do actually
have the replacement. Laura burn Here in studio, sitting right next.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
To me and drum roll please. The new host of
the pickup is Manny Job. It's so good to be here, Laura,
get out the door. This is my place now.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
We did keep it as close to home as humanly possible.
We decided to just get my husband to fill in.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
The interview process was very rigorous. Do you know what
they said?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
They did ask if we could all do a chemistry
test to see if you have and I was like,
I am married to the man.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I think we've got some chemists.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
We had sex, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I mean I was trying to bring on labor, get
this baby out. No, it was a rigorous test. What
did you have to pass to get in here now?
Speaker 3 (10:53):
No, it literally just said just get here for three
o'clock and you're fine. But actually, when I need to
hear double check, when do I actually start?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Well, I mean, I'm having the baby on hoping Tuesday.
We are like, I think I'm getting injuiced. We can't
be sure, we can't be sure. It could happen in
the next few days.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
I don't need your life story, just need to know
what data. You don't even know what day we're having
this baby. Hawpy times.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
It keeps changing the goalposter forever moving, so I can't
keep track.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
It can't move that much. It is that week. Gosh.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
So because we're getting in juice, Matt keeps asking for
the specific date and I'm like, tell me.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I'm like, I don't know. It's dependent on.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
I'm like, what do you mean you don't know when
you're having a baby.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I was like, it's dependent on the hospital. But he
keeps booking things on days and I was like, you know,
you have to keep three days free, but.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
The week man to get the baby. When do I start?
When I tell you what? Does anyone know what's happening?
No one actually knows. We're taking all taking a week
of paternity leave.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
How do you feel about the fact that you're going
to be juggling a newborn baby and also a brand new,
sparky radio career.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I could not ask for anything more right now.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
It's a dream come true. How do you feel about
you your co host?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
That's the big question that everyone me included has been asking.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You know, we get along so well, We've always had
a great relationship, and you know, to sit alongside you
on air three pm.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's three pm pick up there's three pm pickup.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It's just I'm so honored, I'm flattered and I can't
wait to see where our relationship goes from here.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
I can. Let's not let it go anywhere else.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
We had had a tumultuous relationship, which I'm sure we
want us well. Everything was great until you out of
my wedding to Australia before I got married.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
But I was clothing it. I was helping you.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
For anyone who doesn't know the behind the scenes of this,
Britt was trying to keep the date of her wedding
private and Matt accidentally on his podcast accident downloads.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Do you know what I say?
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Almost downloaded episode ever, Matt.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Said to me recently, so he's actually done three things
on his podcast where he gave away Britt's wedding date,
he gave away the first name of our baby, and
then recently he gave away the.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Middle aim of our baby.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I've not talked about these things on any platform, and
Matt says to me casually goes got our downloads are
en up?
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Yah?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Well played though, because he got himself a radio kick to.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
The listeners of the pick Up strap on in You're
gonna find out a lot more about Laura than you anticipated.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You're not even welcome in the birthing suitet now. I
don't want to be there. I've got a radio show. Now,
this is where I live.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I just want it to be known whilst I'm on
maternity leave. I take no responsibility for.
Speaker 1 (13:26):

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Everyone, Laura, add that to my calendar. Added to your
own calendar, Lawsy, Do you have any unreasonable fears or phobias?
Speaker 4 (14:22):
I guess I want to say phobia, but phobia is
a bit different, but like an unreasonable fear.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah, yes I do.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I don't have a phobia like I don't have like
a clinical phobia where I'll run out the door screaming.
I cannot be in the same room as someone brushing
their teeth or chewing chewing gum.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That is elational, not mine. Is Dolmarty's. Oh I love
chase me around a party with Doll Marty That. It's
the feel and the texture in my fingers and my mouth. Grace,
can we please get a tin of.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Dom Marti's and I'm going to throw one at briton
tomorrow's show.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
We did that last year. I forgot. Did I throw
it at her on the show?
Speaker 5 (14:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You did. I'm really pregnant and my memory is.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Not good anymore. Everything's gone down to gurglar.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
I found this really interesting.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
According to Psychology Today, at least sixty percent of adults
admit to having an unreasonable fear, and then it went
into like a phobia is the number one most googled
phobia in Australia.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I was gobsmacked at these phobias.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
I went down a phobia rabbit hole of things I
didn't even know existed.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
I disagree. I think phobias are totally reasonable. The reason
why I have a deep inherent fear of chewing gum
and it makes me just like it makes my skin crawl.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Sorry, I did think we moved on before. Sorry, I
will tell you.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
When I was little, I almost died from choking on
chewing gum and since then I can't. I can't have it,
I can't be near at my Yeah, I end up
in hospital. It was really tragic. Took a serious So
glad that I'm still here to tell the tale.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I am glad you're here. I don't want to revisit that.
Let's move on, Okay.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
So the number one most searched phobia in Australia is
agora phobia, which is the fear.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Of leaving your house. I believe or not, that's the
number one.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
I thought it was a fear of symmetrical little dots,
So I was really wrong anyway, that was really random.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Well, no, the number two most searched is troop of phobia,
which is a fear of holes.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yes, that's the little dots one. I didn't know people
were so scared of holes.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Okay, so there's what what is happening there is this
It's not a flower, but it's kind of like a
seed pod that you sometimes get in floral arrangements. And
I remember I posted on Instagram it's beautiful bunch of
flowers that I had received, and it had this random
little I think it's called a lotus pot and it's
got these little holes in the top of it. The
amount of people who messaged me and were like, oh
(16:32):
my god, I am so triggered by that flower.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
I was like, that's weird. How do you get through life?
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Well, I thought of the brand new pickup benchmark and
your game Brittany's Phobia Quiz. What I'm going to do, Laura,
is I have gone so deep to find the weirdest,
most unusual strangers phobias. It's three options, multile choice. You're
gonna pick what you think it is and I'm gonna
score you.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Can I call a friend, grace you my backup? No?
I wrote these questions.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
All right, Iraqi, beauty o phobia, it's a fear of
beautiful spiders.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
So is it a a fear of a spider crawling
into your ear at night? B A fear of peanut
butter sticking to the roof of your mouth, or see
fear of the number eight.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I think it's a fear of a spider crawling into
your ear.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Wrong, it is the fear of peanut butter sticking to
the roof of your mouth. The weirdest phobia ever. Do
you know when it's like really dry and you can't
get off the roof.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
What's way worse than that is the fear of dry
milo hitting you in the back of the throat.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
That's a real fear. Yeah, okay, we've all been there.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Nomophobia, fear of homophobia, fear of the sound of squeaky shoes,
fear of being without your mobile phone.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I'm pretty sure homophobia is the phobia of homosexuals.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Yes, I'm so glad you put Is it a fear
of the fear of that?
Speaker 1 (17:54):
No, I don't. I don't think it is. I think
it's sweet shoes. Wrong, fear of being with out your
mobile phone. You would have that I'm really bad at
this game. Plutophobia fear of the planet. Is it a
fear of outer space? Fear of money or fear of
having too much responsibility? Fear of too much money? Yes,
(18:19):
one point on fantastic. All right, what's the next one?
I'm on a roll. Now you've got one.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Xanthrophobia fear of gardening, fear of roll escapes.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Fear of the color yellow. I think it's the color yellow.
I just took a little while to warm up to this.
I think I'm going to be good at it now.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
All right? What about this one? Man hit me?
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Global phobia fear of traveling in a plane, fear of balloons,
fear of round fruit.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Oh it's tricky, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I am gonna say being in a plane, fear of balloons.
I was going to go that one, and then I
second guessed myself.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
You might get this one.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Pogonophobia fear of beards, fear of pogo sticks, fear of
the smell of ant, the smell of ants.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Wrong, damn it. Pgono phobia is a fear of beards.
I don't have that. I like a beard.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
You climb inside of it and wrap it around me.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
This one I think you'll get. I threw an easy
one in for you.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Phobophobia Is it the fear of having a phobia, fear
of people being afraid of you, or fear of talking
on the phone.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I think it's the fear of having a phobia. Yes,
three on the boards.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Surely you can't have a fear of having a phobia,
because then it's not really a phobia, right, but you are.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
This is from science to But if you're.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
So frightened that you're going to be frightened about something,
just stop being frightened about all of the things.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
And then you're fine. That is said by someone that
doesn't have phobophobia. No, I don't have phobophobia. Sorry. Last one, yep,
this is all or nothing. You can win. You can
get one hundred percent if you get this. I like
that the rules just keep changing on this game. It's
really into it.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Lecano phobia, fear of vegetables, fear of people named Lachlan,
or a fear of the lockness monster.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
I'm gonna say vegetables, and she's taking a hot.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I know so much about deep seated fears. Isn't that
so unusual? It's very sad.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I think it would be very, very hard to get
through life having like a debilitating.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Fear of something that other people think is irrational. Because
the fear was Lachlan, and he's like, hy, I'm pretty high.
I'm Lochlan.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
My first boyfriend's name was Lachlan. So I know I
don't have that. He was nice.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
I don't know of all the boyfriends, I have nothing
bad to say about him. He was a lovely boy.
That's wonderful news about your relationship. Hissury, Okay, cool. If
you have a phobia, call us up. Now we are
talking medical mishaps.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
What did you go to the hospital for or to
the doctor's for and you were accidentally misdiagnosed?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Maybe something even crazier happened.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Now.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
The reason why we're talking about this is because something
happened to me quite a few years ago. I think
i'd blocked it from the trauma. Somehow it came up
in conversation and I honestly forget how wild this was.
So I was in my twenties and I had really
bad back pain, like and it was getting progressively worse.
And I remember going to the doctors and the doctor
(21:10):
did some tests and the doctor was like, go straight
to hospital.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Do not pasco, do not collect two hundred dollars. Just
go to the hospital.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
And I got in there and I got admitted, and
they did some scans and stuff, and they did like
an ulchsound and whatever other scans, and I got the
results back and there was.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
An issue with my gall bladder.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
So my gall bladder was completely filled with gallstones.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I think I was like twenty six at the.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Time, explaining to the back pain, Well, it's like pain like
all around my soft organs, you.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Know, in this like around my back.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Anyway, it was like spiral pain. But I remember so
vividly him even being like, gosh, it's crazy. You literally
have the gall bladder of a ninety year old woman, and.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
So this is dire. Yeah, I was prepped for surgery.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I went in and I did like the clear liquids
diet overnight. The surgeon came in the next day, sat
on the foot of my bed, talked.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Me through what was going to happen.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
And at the time, I'd just been through a breakup
with a guy who worked in hospitals, so like he
was also a different field, different everything, and I was like,
I feel really lonely and sad, I'm just gonna call him.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Also, you were probably thinking, oh, this is my way
to connect with my head boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Read definitely want me back when I'm in a medical gown.
So anyway, he came in and he was like, it's
just so weird. He's like, it doesn't really make sense.
I want to have a look at your scans, and
so he got my I can't remember for his ultra
sound or something else, but he got my scans and
he was having a look at them and he goes,
I just don't believe that this can be your golbladder.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
He's like, it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Make sense for you to have that many gallstones. You're
not that unhealthy. Anyway, they did some digging and it
turns out it was, in fact not my scan. Mine
had been mistaken with the woman who was in the
bed next to me, who was a nine year old lady,
and she needed to go and have her gallbladder removed,
and had that been three hours different, I would have
gone in for a surgery.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
That I absolutely didn't need.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Poor Mary, They're like, Mary, you look like a twenty
year day.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I had a kidney infection and a bladder in section
which I'm pretty sure the ex boyfriend gave.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Me a CIRTI and an STI at the same time.
That could have been a bad ending. It really was.
It really was.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Although we've got Eloise on the line. Eloise, what was
your medical mishap?
Speaker 6 (23:19):
So in twenty eighteen, I had a reconstruction surgery of
my right rotator cuff. It was meant to just be
day surgery, so I went in in true day surgery form.
Everybody's running late. My doctor comes and sees me, marks
up my shoulder, says this shoulder, don't operate on the
other obviously, and my neth assist was running late. They're like,
we'll meet you in the list. He'll give you a
(23:41):
nerve block. We'll go in, we'll do the surgery.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Lift.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
We're yeah, like in the lift into the to go
into the theater. So like they're in the elevator and
he's just like, we're going straight into the theater. We'll
do your nerve block here, we'll do the surgery. Everything
will be great. So he comes in quickly, checks my details,
gives me a nerve block, and that's really the last
thing I remember until I wake up. I wake up
(24:05):
in complete agony, feeling like I've just had my arm
cut open, which obviously I had, but the anithssis put
a nerve block in the wrong arm, so they blocked
my left arm and they cut open my right and
I woke up being like crying, being like this, I
don't think this is right, Like I can feel everything,
(24:26):
and they're like, well, kind of funny story, but you
can as funny.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
This is a kin to the urban legend of the
person who went in for an amputation and they amputated
the wrong legs.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
That's not an urban legend, no, I know, it's it's
a real story. It happened at the hospital I worked out.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
I have worked at a hospital that took something that
they weren't space to.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
It took something from someone of their words. Yeah, it
is a real thing that happens. Wow, human error. Hey,
you get anyone.
Speaker 6 (24:50):
They do it all the time and that's why they
mark up your shoulders and like everything saying not this
leg But so it didn't turn out to your day surgery.
I had to stay in overnight because I had no
arm working because one was nerve blocked incorrectly and one
was cut open, and I was maxed out on pain
relief already, so I was like excruciating for the twenty
four hours. I had everybody in the hospital coming to
(25:13):
apologize and obviously getting me to not sue.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Oh my god, elo is you poor things.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I know you don't always get presented with these opportunities,
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Like we've had so many of them come in. Some
of them we absolutely can't share or we might get sued.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
There was a while there that we were talking about
weddings every week because I had multiple You had so
many weddings. We talked about every type of like wedding taboo,
wedding themes, wedding rights and wrongs, the do's and don'ts.
But there's something that's just recently gone viral online. It's
gone millions of views, and it's a very unconventional practice.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
That potentially we could bring into.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Weddings to better suit all of our single friends in
the hopes that maybe they will find love. And I
say this because we all know that weddings can sometimes
be They can sometimes be that romantic meeting point, right,
Like everyone's just watched the bride and groom say how
much they love each other, and then you look across
the room and you're single and you see another single
guy and look, it's the platform for love.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'm pretty sure you bet someone on my wasn't love.
I didn't meet someone. You Matt's cousin, your husband's cousin
kissed me. I was like what because see love? Because
the only other single person there, and he's like you exactly.
I was the bold.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
I was best on ground for the singles people because
I'm the only single person.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
The thing is is that the singles at weddings always
managed to sniff each other out right, it happens. Well,
there's a couple who has made it that little bit easier.
So they created a laminated sheet at their wedding that
says tonight's most eligible, flirty, fabulous and potential for your
future plus one.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
And they have put a photograph.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Of every single single person that is at the wedding
to make it easier for them to find each other.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Would you like this.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
If you're a single person going to a wedding or
would you be absolutely mortified?
Speaker 1 (27:04):
And like, I mean, is it akin to public shaming?
I mean, I feel like I have two feelings about it.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
I think it's a pretty good idea as long as
everyone has been asked if it's okay, Like if every
single person on this list consented, consented, if they were like, Hey,
we're gonna this could be funny. It's a great idea.
We're gonna put a singles out. Are you happy with it?
It's a problem if they're not. But if somebody asked
me and I was like, yeah, then I think it's
funny because you know what happens at a wedding. The
(27:31):
number one thing you're asking if you're single is like, oh,
wonder if that person's single, Like, because you want to
meet people, right, So this is just like a foolproof way.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
You've locked eyes with someone across the room, you're like,
he's cute.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Won if you're singlet out my list and you're like, oh, yep,
he is number five B in row five B.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Do you know what's more embarrassing, though, is if you
walk over to the laminated piece of paper.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
That's stuck on the wall to.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Check right, because it's not like they've got a little
pocket card to take around with them. It is next
to what you would assume, so like, you know, how
you go up and it's got like your table numbers
and everything. Next that is this laminated picture frame that's
full of everyone's faces like a still photo.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
This that it was passed around the reception like a
wine list, like you could choose from it. But I'm
looking at some of the comments here. Someone said they
were going to take back their gift. That's a big call.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Some felt humiliated that it's public shame in disguise as cute,
and then others said it was genius and they would
love it. I think if everything runs on board and
it's consensual, it's a bit all I had fun, Like totally,
what's the difference with your on dating app? You can
pull up a dating app and put your vicinity of
like one hundred meters around you, and you can see
all these.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
People, like I want my dating app circle to be
only the people that are at this wedding, And is
that guy here?
Speaker 1 (28:35):
I look?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I mean the people who are having a real poop
who at it are not people who were.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
At the wedding.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I would assume if you're doing this, you've kind of
vetted it with your friends.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
It's fine, but I also think it's cute.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
The only thing I guess, like maybe I would be
upset about is if I was not one, I didn't
want to be like actively looking for someone at that wedding,
and so I'd been like kind of just dumped in
with the rest of the people, like if I wasn't
looking to date, I don't want that sign above my
head like I am single.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
But also I think it's because like sometimes.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
We look at speing single and dating as just being like, oh,
you feel as though, like, oh, here we go again,
I'm that single person at this event, everyone's gonna pass one,
and it can be really hard.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
I think the reason this is different is there's like
often you go to a wedding and there's only.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
A couple of people that are single.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
And I say that because I went to a wedding
and I remember being mortified.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
It was time to throw the bouquet and everyone was like, oh.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
The single people come out, and I was like, I
don't want to do it. I don't want to do it,
and I was like, I'm not going out. And then
there were you know, isn't that what happened at my wedding?
And it was yes, I was trying to say, it
was it was.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Just you that came out.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yeah, there was like five people that came out, and
then Matt's cousin was like, shield be which's good.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
It's happened twice. I was trying to not say it
was your wedding.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
Yes, I was humiliated your wedding, but this other way,
both weddings.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I was humiliated because the pool of single people were
so small. So all of a sudden, you walk out,
there's there's a circle of people looking at you, and
there's two of you that are supposed.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
To fight over a bouquet to like, please somebody picked
me in the future and I get married anyway, I
remember being more. But there's twenty four people on this
singles list that was being passed around.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It's a great meeting. On that list are pretty high,
so I'd be about
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It all right, Well, look, maybe you can if you're
getting married and you got a lot of single friends,
maybe you can play Cupid and just return the favor.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
