Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Life Uncut podcast acknowledges the traditional custodians of country throughout
Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We
pay our respect to their elders past and present and
extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander
people's today. This episode is recorded on Gadigal Land of
the Aurora Nation. Hi guys, and welcome back to another

(00:24):
episode of Life. I'm I'm Laura, I'm Brittany, I'm midd
and this is the pickup.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
So if you're new to Life on Cut, this is
our radio show which we do every day of the
week and we package up all the best bits and
some of the worst bits here for you guys to
listen to.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah, it's definitely a.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Filtered down version. We take out the stuff we don't
think you might want to hear and we put in
the good stuff.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
But it was a great week.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
And I can say that because Ben's here and he came.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
It was like a bringing boyfriend's workday, so a broad
him in, we're attached at the hip and then you
guys sort of.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Sprung a little bit of a quiz on us. You
guys are so disgustingly cute. And it's like that, it's
that kind of cute when your very first start dating,
even though you guys are been tod that now for
like eighteen months. But came into the studio, we did
this queiz.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
You know, when you're on a pine of this turbulence
and you see that old couple holding hands clutching at
the front row. That's what they looked like during the recording.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
But I had a realization today and I put on
my instaf he and you look like you could be related.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
That is such bullshit. In the most you're both beautiful.
You look so similar, you do, and I've never noticed
it so similar. We don't look at anything alive.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
I'm signing you guys up for siblings or dating.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
There's literally nothing. Not our skin tone, not our height,
not our eye color, not our nose, like nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
I disagree. The shape of your head, the size of
your head, it's narrows. It's like everything. Your facial features
look similar.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
I think European.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
And they do say that you're attracted to people who
look similar to you, like people always say I look
at both Matt. They say you're attracted to people look
like your dad. That's what they say, Arry Bernard bald
and very But I just thought that.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Much straight thing, like that's very heterosexual. It's like the
whole Freudian thing that like women want to be with
their fathers and then men want to be with their mothers.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
And people often end up looking like their dogs.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
I would take that.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
I think I look like more like my dog than Ben.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
That sound like I.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Called your dog.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Well.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Speaking of relationships, I also told a story this week
about how I thought I got away with having sex
at my house because I live at home, and I
definitely didn't. I didn't realize until the next morning that
I that I was sprung. It's very funny.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Loud sex at home is probably the deal.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Brain, it's not loud. We actually had the realization that
we haven't even had like genuine, full full bang audio
sex at home.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Do you want to go and like staying at Airbnb
or something just so you can just like really get
it on.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Didn't you do that at my house? That was that
was our first day at your house?

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Yes, so you did bang once on your couch, Yeah,
and that's the only time you've let it rip?

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Was that my home on your leather couch. Yeah, and
then you're bad. You got mad and I had to
change the bed sheets.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yeah, you know, why do you have to change thee
feel like he's so shocked, like I made him change
the sheets that he just spuffed on.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I didn't spuff on your sheets, but I did you
one of Ben's condoms. Have I ever said that that
I needed one? I went ran into the bedside table
and I had to move the retainer.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
They're about twenty five years old.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
I'll be pregnant.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Was pregnant, You're probably going to be three months.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Pred I'm gay for everyone, that is.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
All right? Well.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
I also told a story this week. We had a
photo shoot for Tony May and I accidentally made the
model cry and it was not my intention, but I
really put my foot in it, and I still feel
bad about it.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
You should feel bad, No, I shouldn't. I'm on your
sef will too bad. You were in your directorial mode,
and I've been with you, and you're in your directorial
tony My mode, and it's a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
I was just trying to be efficient. I was trying
to help her be the best version of her. That
she could possibly be and did not achieve that.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
We'll wait a year.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
How she doubled down. All right, all that's covering up
in the show.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
I was talking about this on the show last week.
But me and my entire family, the Zamchury family, which
is the little team name we came up for, I
took part in the MS Walk Run role, which is
it's kind of like there's many different steps you can do.
You to a five k k mini marathon, quarter marathon,
whatever you want to call it, raising money and funds
for MS research here in Australia. My sister Becky has MS,

(04:08):
was only diagnosed very recently in the last six months,
also pregnant. A lot going on. I just firstly wanted
to say thank you to you girls end of the
pickup listeners. We smashed our goal, We like tripled our
goal of fundraising and racist under ten thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Well, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
You guys should be so proud, really honestly, because what
you're doing raising awareness, raising money. I know we're going
to speak to Becky more about it, but it's it's yeah,
you should be really proud, and I'm sure Becky feels
a lot of Love.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
Yeah, well that's I wanted to get Becky on to
join us because here I am telling her story about
it being diagnosed with the MS, living with MS, walking
and they run and roll with MS. But I wanted
to bring out of the show. So Becky for the
first time pick up debut. Welcome to the show.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
Hi, Hi Becky, Hello, Hello, how are you guys?

Speaker 2 (04:49):
I can't believe this is your debut. I think maybe
because I know you. I feel like you've come on
well literal family and you know betterphor Yeah, Becky, you
were diagnosed with MS. What was that like for you?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
And I say that because I think there's a lot
of people that don't know much about it. But like,
at the time, did you know something was quote unquote wrong?

Speaker 2 (05:08):
What led you to be diagnosed?

Speaker 6 (05:11):
Yeah? Definitely, Like I had a three year battle just
to get diagnosed. So by the time I got diagnosed,
I think I was actually relieved that someone finally believed
something was wrong. Initially I had it was around the COVID.
Time I got COVID, I got a vaccine and then
I just like causes some people with immune kind of
responses to flare up, and I started losing my vision.

(05:34):
I was at work and saw like weird stars and
I went to the neurologist. I had an MRI and
he was like, look, you just have anxiety. Like relaxed, dude,
some mindfulness come back. So then me and my husband
pretty much fought for like three years because I was
having like severe migraines to the point of losing vision
on the way home from work, like it got really
bad fatigue, numbness and pins and needles down my arm,

(05:55):
and then yeah, I pushed and pushed and pushed, and
eventually they did a lumber punk show which actually came
back negative, which is like one of the criteria to diagnose.
But the main thing in the NA found was I
had progression of one lesion over a three year period,
which is very minimal. I'm very lucky a brain. They were, yes,
a brain lesion, so I only have them in my brain,

(06:17):
but I had one more lesion in my brain. My
neurologist is like, look, I think it's still anxiety, and
I was like, look, I'm getting a second opinion. Mitch
actually put me onto a really great neurologist who had
me with an MS specialist the next day. Mitchell in
his connections.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
I don't know where I went into Christian everything.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Well, she kept saying at the doctors are saying, you
don't have anything. So I called everyone I knew and
we got her in and that's when she got a diagnosis.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
But this is my question, Becky, you would now have
spoken to other people who have been diagnosed with MS.
Is this something like is this experience of being told oh,
you know, it's not this, or it could be this,
or kind of it being downplayed? Is that a common
experience or is that just something that was unique to you.

Speaker 6 (06:57):
Look, I think it's hard because, unfortunately it's such a
weird disease. It presents in so many different ways. Like
I've met one hundred people with MS, and probably five
people have the same symptoms, So I think it presents
so differently. You can either have brain lesions, spine lesions
both and it really it really depends then on what
your symptoms are. But I mean, I spoke to a

(07:18):
lady this morning, just randomly, and then she was telling
me that like her thirteen year old niece or something
that were investigating her for MS, and she'd been gas
lit and they told her it was you know migraines
as well, and I was like, keep pushing, like, go
see this specialist. You need to get to the bottom
of it because ultimately, starting any treatment early is the
key to not well. Hopefully if the treatment works for you,

(07:40):
it's not progressing as thick as yes, yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Well, Becky, And I mean for anyone who doesn't know
what MS looks like, and I think that that would
be a great deal of people. What does that like
for you if you were to say, if those symptoms
were to progress, what does life look like without treatment?

Speaker 6 (07:57):
Well, I think it's really like for me personally, and
I can only speak me like, my everyday symptom is
I have really bad static vision in my eyes, so
when I'm in a room, everything white is static and
everything black is static. I have problems like the lady
next to me today at work is wearing a multi
colored shirt and I can't look it up because I'm like,
it's making me feel like I'm going to pass out,

(08:17):
you know, like reading a book. I can't read a
book because I can't see the letters they all move.
But for other people, like I know a girl that
woke up one day and couldn't move for legs. So
I think the problem is that it's an invisible disease
and that I can be feeling terrible but still turn
it up to family lunch and put a brave face
on and smile, you know, whereas other people they can't

(08:38):
even you know, they need a wheelchair or they need
a cane to.

Speaker 7 (08:41):
Help them out.

Speaker 6 (08:42):
I just really want to spread awareness for it, and
there are people out there that it is a bit
too late and the medication doesn't work for them. I'm like, so,
I mean, the closer we get to research and money
for a cure, and there's some amazing clinical trials going
on at the moment, the better.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
I love you.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Thanks by.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Mitch.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
You should be so proud of yourself as well for
raising awareness. I know how much this has affected you
in your family, but you guys are the best.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Yes, my dad had this huge moment on the weekend,
like a really important moment in his life that didn't
quite go to plan, and I put it on my
Instagram and Instagram was up in arms. They went bonkers
and I want to talk to about it and get
to the bottom of this issue today.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
The injustice, the injustice, the travesty my dad on behalf
of my nana entered a retirement.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Village bakeoff, the Great Retirement Village Bakeoff. It was Possier's
retirement lifestyle village up in Port mcquarie.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
And so what they did is they held this.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
They have this annual bakeoff, but it's just for the
men of the village and my native it's a men's bakeoff,
and my nana doesn't have a man in her life.
So my dad entered like on her behalf.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
So she couldn't enter because there was no well, they.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Would do other women stuff.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
This is just for the men and the men to
have a bake box anyway, So it's really cute.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
So my dad took it so seriously.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
My dad spent three days prepping his one entry, three
days of like because you've got to I don't actually
know the interest because I've seen the photo.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
I saw a photo. It was like a cake, but
it kind of looked like an iced ovo, you know.
It was it was surprisingly I mean, it was surprisingly good.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
I couldn't do it. I'm not a baker. Does he baker?
Did he do this to help nana or is he
all your life being a baker?

Speaker 1 (10:29):
My dad has cooked his whole life like he is
the cook of the family. My mom does too, but
my dad loves it. He genuinely loves it. But he's
not necessarily the baker. He cooks the like proper meals,
but sometimes I dessert. But he took us so seriously.
He committed three days NonStop. He was timing stuff and temperature.
It was incredible, and I was like, there is no
way this.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Man can't win. He didn't win.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
He came second.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
And we think he was robbed. I think he was robbed.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
I think there's some under the table stuff going on
at that retirement real and I want to speak to
my dad what happened.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
I don't know his name. I have a photo of him.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
I did block out his face on Instagram for safety
and protection purposes.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
I didn't want anyone to.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Come for him. Can we do we know what he made?

Speaker 2 (11:11):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Tony actually joins us now he's on the line. This
Brits dad Hollo Tony mate injustice Justice for Tony an
absolutely travesty. So about quickly tell us what did you bake?
Just to paint a picture of what the item was
that you entered that came second.

Speaker 7 (11:26):
I baked, and I was vovo tart.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
You did look very much like an ice vovo.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
Why did you take three days? Dad?

Speaker 7 (11:35):
Look, if you were to cook it in you know,
just to set aside a day, there's a lot of waiting.
You know, you've got to you make a base and
then you've got to put that in the fridge for
two hours. You twiddle your thumbs and then you know
you've got to then make a marshmallow bed and in
that scene, you've got to make that Let that sit

(11:56):
for three hours in the in the fridge.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yeah, do you know who came first? Like, do you
know what he had made? Because I don't know.

Speaker 7 (12:04):
He made a hummingbird hummingbird cake?

Speaker 1 (12:10):
And did you get to did you like witness the
cake or taste it or did you see any.

Speaker 7 (12:14):
Like you know, I tasted it and there were still
parts of the Sarah Le sticker on it. Oh N,
I swear, I swear.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
You know, I reckon Because he was a part of
the village, right he lived there. I'm assuming Tony.

Speaker 7 (12:29):
Not only part of the village he was He's married
to a lady who's widely regarded as the very best
cook by by miles in the in the village, no doubt.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
So, Dad, do you reckon? Are you saying you reckon
his wife?

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Actually?

Speaker 1 (12:50):
Because she's known in the village as the best baker?
Do you reckon that the wife actually bakes for him?

Speaker 7 (12:55):
Look, I'm not casting any dispersions, but think about the
fine cotton affair.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Look, I think, what's the time. Do we have time
to go?

Speaker 2 (13:02):
I don't have time to think about it. What is
the Dad, Love's history's going to go?

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Just tell us to find cotton affair in thirty seconds, the.

Speaker 7 (13:09):
Fine cotton affair in thirty seconds of fine cotton was
a race horse, a champion racehorse, and the owners put
the fix in, got a dud horse, painted it the
same color as fine cotton, and bunded in the race.
Wow against it.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
Is a fine cotton. Fine I heard it.

Speaker 7 (13:29):
It looked like the real one, but I wasn't. And
this is the go They looked like the real chefs.
But I'm wondering you may.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
Have I mean a winter in my eyes.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
I never knew that that retirement villagers could be so controversial.
I didn't realize that there was so much going down
that lazy there.

Speaker 7 (13:45):
Look, Laura they are a hot bed ofception corruption.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Are we just talking about baking scandals or things that
are a bit more sorted?

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Well, Mike my Olmer, I've got a story. Well, okay,
producer Grace, let's take some calls on this, because clearly
there is an underworld in this country that we don't
know of. Thirteen what's your retirement scandal or your retirement
village scandal? What's going on her closed doors that we
don't know? Tony can narrate the Netflix series when we
sell this to Netflix.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
Oh that's really cute.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Dad.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
You're a winner in my eyes.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
And if you ever have time three days again up
your sleeve to make us a nice vover here at the.

Speaker 7 (14:17):
Pickup, I'll make one for you.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
And when you come up, Oh thanks Dad, I love man.
We're in the middle of an investigation here, ladies.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
It's the biggest investigation that we needed that it did,
thank you. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
The Great retirement bakeoff of twenty twenty four, the retirement
village that my nana lives at, Poziers, the retirement village
of Port Macquarie, but had a bake off for charity
that was made.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
So they say, we don't know if it's for charity.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Probably pocketed it. No, they're good, they're great.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
But it was males only, and my nana lives there
on her own. She doesn't have a partner, so my
dad entered as the male representative. He baked for three
days straight, like it was extraordinary what he made and
iced vovo.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
Yep, he made the vovo, he made, made the shell
took him three days.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Everything he even like, did the little what's it called
where you pushed the little cream out in little swells and.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Stuff a piping bag.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Remember, even my brain was like the whipped cream.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
The pipe bag. He came second. The person that beat him, however,
is married to the head honcho of the retirement.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
There's definitely some scandalous things going on their retirement home.
So we thought thirty one oh sixty five, if you
know of any scandals that maybe your own grandparents retirement homes,
or if you've ever heard of the scandals we wanted
to know about, Well.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
We've got one from within the house. The calls coming
from within the pickup girls because my Olma, I'm Dutch.
So my Dutch homer was kicked out of her retirement
village for quote unquote wearing revealing clothes. She was Miss
New Holland. She was the face of Berry Juice in
the fifties. She's an ex model. She's gorgeous, so she
likes to shop at soupre and wear dinner eighty six

(16:00):
had eighty six on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Ye, she got shamed.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
She got shamed, shame for the way she dressed. They
got together the Union retiment village. They said, we don't
think you're you're you're you know, suited for the retime. Yeah,
you aligned with the values. She's now in another place.
She's living happily in her denim jeans and she looks hot.
But the conspiracy now is not okay.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Usually the types of scandals and you can't laugh. But
often it happens with dementia patients, and that's not funny.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
I had so many people because I put this whole
scandal on my Instagram, and I had so many people
writing talking about like the sex that goes on a
retirement is rampant, multiple floors, sneaking out of their rooms,
like having four different girlfriends on different levels.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Level.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
To be honest, though, if I make it into a
retirement village, I'm going to do the same if if
I'm well, if he's not around. If he's not around,
it's like a second lease on life.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
You're all there.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
You don't have much long to go enjoys. If you
see her in the retirementome, she's ready.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Laura. Hello another Laura, I'm thirteen. What's your sorry, that's
qv invested to give music? What's going on at the
retirement village near you?

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (17:05):
Hi guys, Oh my gosh, I'm fangirling so hard.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
Laura.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
What's your grandma or grandpa doing?

Speaker 7 (17:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (17:13):
So I used to work in age care back in
the day, in my early twenties as an age care nurse,
and I worked in the dementia unit, and we had
a couple that came into the retirement village together. But
the lady was in the demensia unit and her husband
wasn't and he was quite like with it, and she

(17:35):
had quite like she was still very like able body.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Yeah, but it takes over.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (17:42):
Yeah, So she kind of forgot that she was married
and she fell in love with another residence. We've had
you and we would often find them in the room
together doing all the things that young they would be
doing it there age.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Oh, no, and then your grandpa did he? No? Her grandpa?

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oh sorry, the grandpa grandpa, their grandpa, new grandpa grandpa too.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
Well, well, not exactly what we're after in the conspiracy search,
but good for them.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Oh that's no, that's really sad. I don't like. I
don't think we can. We can joke about the ones
that have to do with dementia.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
No, no, we're not joking. Taking it's real, it's happened.
Sarah on thirteen one oh sixty five. Hey, what's your
conspiracy theory? Your aged care facility?

Speaker 9 (18:27):
Hi?

Speaker 8 (18:28):
I'm also saying girling very hard right.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
Now now, but.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
A much now.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
It's great.

Speaker 8 (18:36):
Speaking of revealing clothing, my grandma has topless parties in
the garage.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
Your own would love it there. Oh what do you mean?

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Do they actually have an event like this Friday night?
Everyone topless party in the garage.

Speaker 8 (18:52):
I think it's like a weekly occurrence. But you're not
allowed in without taking your.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
Tea time. They've gone a bit Loopyelly.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
I think this is great. Nine year old's free in
the nibs. That's movement. I want to be a part of.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
Where are they hooking up?

Speaker 8 (19:08):
Look, I don't ask that many questions.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Is it put on by the village, Like when you
go to the entrance and is there's a corkboard, does
it say Friday night topless dance night or are they
doing this back end?

Speaker 8 (19:22):
Yeah, I think it might be a little bit under
the radar.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
I actually love it, like living your absolutely best life.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
I can get around it totally. I mean, yeah, I'll
do that. You do the hookups at eighty, I'm doing
the topless parties.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
I think that leads to the hookups for it.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
But you're welcome an.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
Okay, you can come to my party, Laura.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Now, we've been having quite a few discussions recently about
baby names, and that's just between you myself. You're going
to think of everyone. I think one of us is pregnant.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
You know we're not pregnant.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
But Britt, you your sister's having a baby. You're becoming
an auntie again. Mitch, your sisters having a baby. And
that's why we've been discussing baby names. But now I
think there's so much loaded into baby names because you
could go traditional, you could go with something unique. You
kind of don't want to go too unique because then
you know your kid's gonna get teased. But there is
a vet who is going viral on TikTok at the moment,
and that is because he has come up with a

(20:17):
list of baby names that you would think on first
look at these names, they're not that bad. But the
reason why you shouldn't call your child these names is
because actually there's more animals called these names than what
there are humans. So in all of his time working
as a vet, he has been compiling a list of
the most common dog and cat names.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
And here's what they are. And I feel really sorry.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
I'm worried that one of my names. Some of mine
are okay, some of mine are And I feel really
sorry for anybody who has a child named this. And
if you have a pet name this, were well done.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Slice in common. If you're already named this, it's not
a problem.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
And these are not there. These are human names as well,
so they could be hybrid, right. Number one Luna, Luna,
it's a real dog. That's you dog, very sweet dog name.
You hear that in the park and the dog park
a lot, all right? Number two hot number two, Daisy,
number three, I know a lot of daisies that are

(21:09):
actual humans. Number three Miller.

Speaker 3 (21:12):
Number four in my family. A dog, a human, human girl. Okay,
all right. Number four, Bella.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
That's a big dog name. I know a lot of
humans named Bella, but I know more dogs.

Speaker 10 (21:23):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Number five.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Number five was on my real name list for a
long time.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
I'm looking at that's discussing you not.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
I wanted to call my daughter a cannot name a
humanist and that is Coco Coco. Listen, I'm not going
to be Hockey Coco.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Secret, secret is hot.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
We need to discuss you changing your name as well.
That wigs me out that you might have a different
last name. That's what happens when people get married, Laura.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Except for you, you don't have to do it.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
I want to Okay, we're not talking is not about
the patriarchy right now.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
We're talking about baby names, all right.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Number seven that's for another days.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
True.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
Number six. Sorry, I know I've lost my spot. Teddy.
I disagree. Teddy is Teddy. I would love to name
it if I had a little boy. Teddy is a
great name, just.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Because it sounds.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
So.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
I can't have Coco, but you can have Teddy.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yeah, these names are fine.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Number seven Charlie also disagree. I think Charlie is a
great one. Franky Archie, Ruby Archie is your nephew. We
have an archer, not an archie, and he and his
parents are very against ever being called archer Archie. It's
been like it's been drilled into us since the day
he was born Archie.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
I don't know. I don't think you have a listen
to this vet, but I think these names are better
than names that Braxton. You know, he could meet kids
names Brack.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
That's a character on Home and Away.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
No one's name of their kid, Braxton. I went to
school with Braxton. I went to score with a Brock.
And guess what his last name was, Olie. I was
going to didn't It was green.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Against buy and then he died it white and you
know what they called him in Collie what coliflower white Brooklyn, And.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
Then he would have been I'm not against naming your
I'm not against these names. I am all for naming
your animal a very straight human name. Like if you've
got a dog, name it, David, I.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Agree, name it.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Frank screamed Frank at the dog.

Speaker 4 (23:18):
He did.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
He did say some other names on the lawn again.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
I'm sorry, hey, so sorry, neighbor shout on your lawn again.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
No, he said some other names that didn't quite make
the list, but then he said, I'll veto this forever.
He'll never call them Milo, which I love like I
love the name Milo.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
But he has said, you can't do it now, Marlon,
Marlon otis done. Remember that million years ago and they
floated down the river.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
What about tramp after lady in the tramp?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
I don't think you can call I don't think you
can call your your child.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
And for a boy trumpeter for a girl.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Okay, let's hope.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
For the Kathleen trampoline. Laura, do you feel like this?

Speaker 2 (24:05):
I mean, this is the guest that everyone has been
waiting for. This is the celebrity guest that we have
always wanted to have on the show.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
And it's not just a normal Wednesday. It is not
a normal hump day. I have taken to another.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Level to bring your boyfriend to workday.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
My boyfriend Ben Ben Segrets, all the way from Scotland
has arrived in town and of course.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Hello guys, how you doing. Hello, Bennie, not your first
time here at the pickup, it's.

Speaker 5 (24:30):
The first time at the new studio.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Yes, it is great.

Speaker 3 (24:33):
Yeah, last time you were here, he wrapped you in
a snake I think, and gave you a cockroach animals.

Speaker 5 (24:37):
Yeah, not the best idea.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
But Ben, what is it like when you get back here?
I mean you, you're a superstar on your own rights.
You play for the Celtics and just Celtics, well Celtic
soccer player, which you'll kill me sayen that football player.
You've arrived. And then pretty much since you have been here.
I was swinging a Brit on the phone yesterday and
there was like paparazzi out the front of BRIT's apartment
and now there is a parazzi video of the two

(25:01):
of you just walking the dog to go get a coffee. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (25:03):
I know, crazy world, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
It's crazy. They were so boring. I was walking, I'm put.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
A hand on her ass or something.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
So I was like, oh my god, paparazzi, just let
us be. We haven't seen each other in nearly five months.
Then I saw the paparazzi footage, and paparazzi have gone
to another level. They don't just take photos anymore. They
filmed videos, make it into sizzlereels, put backing music on it,
and then it goes on social media.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
So Ben and I I.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
Was like, Ben, it's actually really cute, like someone's documented
our first day together.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
I know it came up in my four you page.
I was watching recipes and I was watching interview videos,
and all of a sudden, it's brittin Ben. I'm like,
that's my friend. It was a really weird experience. What
was the first moment of reunion light because genuinely four
months the last time you saw Ben was January over
in Europe. Exactly what happened exactly?

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Well, you know, has this usual trait of trying to
scare me.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
I always try and scare the first.

Speaker 9 (25:51):
Time we see each other. But she's she's she's not
the best.

Speaker 5 (25:54):
You need some work.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
I set up the camera to scare room in the.

Speaker 9 (25:57):
Dark room, dark like almost like a dark alleyway, and
it's just the camera and the lights on, and I'm like, well,
I can obviously, I can obviously.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
Know what's happening.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
He walked in and I was hiding. He goes, Babe,
I can literally see.

Speaker 5 (26:08):
The camera right there, and she just came.

Speaker 4 (26:11):
Was this the airport or.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
It was Wait, it didn't pick you up from the
airport After five months of not seeing each other.

Speaker 9 (26:18):
No, no, no, she explained to me that so and
I was trouble for her, which I respect and all that.

Speaker 4 (26:24):
I I have to say.

Speaker 9 (26:26):
I did treat myself to business class because it's such
a long flight, so they do offer a shure for service.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Exactly why would I pick him up when he could
a chauffeur driven to my house.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
It was really late at night as cold guys don't
don't come.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
So the first person you see when you're landed in
Australia is a man in a hatta suit, not your girlfriend,
man in.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
A hat suit and then an I folks trying to scare.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
If the ring light. You're like, this is the end.
You're our VIP guest, Laura. Before we let you go, Ben,
we're not letting you out of here.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Oh no, no, no, we because we know how much
BRIT's been looking forward to this. Like you, guys don't
get to see each other very often. It's been like
what five months now since the last time, and we
want to make it really, really special for you, so
we have organized a beautiful weekend away.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Gorgeous.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
You could not do that. A beautiful weekend away for
you guys to celebrate your love.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
But the catch you got to work for it first.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
And we have a little quiz coming up, and we
want to know just how well you think you know
each other.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
Yeah, I know this.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Think about what you're going to get. You know, could
be a romantic weekend or you could be sleeping on
a broken.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
Bad He gets it.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
Even if we don't go away. We don't have to
play this game to get it.

Speaker 5 (27:30):
No body snows to earn it.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
And also it's also really good for us to know
how well Ben actually knows you, Britt, which is exactly
what this is going to soa Okay, it's going to
shed some light on Okay, I'm nervous. All right, let's
quiz Ben.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
We got Britt to step out of the room. Ben
answered some questions, some of them about himself, some of
them about Britt. And now the way that this is
going to work is, Britt, we're going to ask you
the questions and you have to answer them, knowing or
trying to figure out what you think would have been
Ben's answer, what he would have because you've got to
get these correct. Min Okay, your mind is pretty sick.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
We're seeing how connected you. We want you to get
We want you to get one hundred percent correct, but
if you get around eighty percent, we'll give you the
weekend away.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
Okay, all right, this is going to go, Laura.

Speaker 3 (28:12):
Would you like to kick off the questions? We asked
Ben while Britt wasn't in the room. All right, Britt?

Speaker 2 (28:16):
Question number one? What is your favorite meal? Fine carbonar?
He would have said, finie cab his version.

Speaker 5 (28:23):
This is what Ben says, uh, pasta carbonara?

Speaker 3 (28:27):
Oh yeah, correct, don't next week, Britt? What would Ben
say if we asked him who is the funniest out?

Speaker 2 (28:39):
No, I reckon?

Speaker 1 (28:40):
He would every part of him want to want to
say that he is. But I think he's going to
say I am Britt.

Speaker 5 (28:46):
BRIT's funnier. She thinks she's funny, but I'll give her that.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Bang on exactly.

Speaker 4 (28:52):
All right, we're off to a good start here.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
What sport did Britt play as a teenager? Professional sport
that she often talks about?

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Doesn't shut up about it? Please, I don't even know
what you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Time I played heaps of professionals books. What's the one
that you set records for that you often bring up
the Resustralian champion.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Yeah, oh, there we go. She knows he didn't. He
doesn't know.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
I can tell what is it?

Speaker 2 (29:13):
What he would have?

Speaker 3 (29:15):
No idea?

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Is that right?

Speaker 7 (29:18):
Did you get it?

Speaker 3 (29:18):
This is what Ben had to say.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
I don't know. I think you have something to do
with running. I'm not sure. That must be sprinting.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Wrong, not giving you.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
That that is the answer, and that is really bad.
The answer bodyboarding like surfing. Like that's not like surfing,
it's body I say, because every time I say.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Body boarding, people think I mean bodybuilding. So I have
to then say like surfing.

Speaker 3 (29:39):
Okay, next question you I have.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
Told you that so many times. I'm off that it's.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
Hard to relate when you got bodyboarding in Switzerland, nobody's
ever heard.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
You don't have to know it.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
You just have to remember it is European. It's hard
if it was snow skiing or.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
If it was cow I mean more so, that was
just like you got one question wrong. You guys gonna
be okay, Yeah, you can redeem yourself with this.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
Okay. Next one is who said I love you?

Speaker 5 (30:06):
First?

Speaker 3 (30:08):
Okay? Just try and what would Ben say?

Speaker 5 (30:11):
Try and think of what.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
I I know what it's going to be me.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
On a technicality, it was.

Speaker 4 (30:18):
Me what Ben said she did on radio with you.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Yes, that's great.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, but it wasn't a declaration.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Sorry, it was lipped out.

Speaker 5 (30:28):
I take it.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
We'll give it to them, all right.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
Who is BRIT's celebrity doppelganger, Megan Fox?

Speaker 3 (30:35):
Locking in Meghan Fox? This is what Ben had to say,
tell you what.

Speaker 9 (30:38):
We talked about this with my teammates. Actually they came
up with some good suggestions which I all forgot. But
I think she's got a bit of Megan Fox, but
early Megan Fox, not not the strange version of her now,
so the transformer Meghan Fox.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
I just want it on record, as flat as as
flattered as I am.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
I don't see myself as Megan Fox. I don't see
the resemblance.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
But the fact that you and your teammates think that,
I'm just going to write, write, don't question.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
Next one, we asked Ben what is BRIT's birthday? Twenty
first of August? He would have got it.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
He loves me, I think, and if he didn't, there's
such big trouble off it.

Speaker 5 (31:17):
I am jet like I'm awfully jetlos.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Oh my god, you didn't get my birthday, Ben, if
you didn't get my birthday, he's tired.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
Yeah, surely not, surely this is what to say.

Speaker 9 (31:30):
August twenty first, I think, yeah, so I knew he
got it all right.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
For the very last question for the weekend away for
a celebratory, beautiful weekend together on us, who is the
bread winner in your relationship?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
I don't think you would have answered that, would you, Ben?
I don't think he would disclose out forced me to finance. Okay,
I know what he would say, knowing this is going
to go on radio and you guys will never off
it's the truth or not.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
I think that he would say.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
That I was for the weekend away.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
I reckon because I think, yeah, I think you'd say that,
and I'm not going to tell you guys that.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Put the truth or not. We have access to your
nav bank account so we can verify.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
She's with ing I know that, Yeah, so rich, she's
with west Peak, She's with Westy and all right, Ben.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
Said, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (32:30):
We're both doing well.

Speaker 9 (32:31):
So it's not competition, but competition's good. Yeah for now's.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Which actually means maybe Britch to just pay for this
weekend away.

Speaker 3 (32:40):
Yeah, you can cover.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
It, mate, get to make me pay for my own prize. Anyway,
that's not even the truth, or maybe it is.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
You'll never know. You did surprisingly exceptionally well at this
When we played this game at my hen's party, my
husband Matt got most of the questions wrong.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
We are so happy for you guys. Have a great
weekend away. Oh god, they're going to kiss. Oh, throw
on the mic. We love you guys, congratulations and being
so oh god, they're geting undressed here in the it's massive,
it's Thursday. Let's do this.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
It's Thursday.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
This is my favorite segment Ask Uncut, where you guys
call up with the problem of the week, the conundrum
something you need a little bit of help with. Now,
we don't have any education around this, but we're very
enthusiastic about giving our advice.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Well when you're a free therapist, but we are. We
don't have any qualifications.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
We both build first tena free we.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
We both bill but they're all free because it's not.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
No prize attached as well. It's just come on and
we'll try our best.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, and today's one is about man's best friend.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Have Linda on the phone, Hayley do what's the conundrum.
How can we help?

Speaker 10 (33:50):
Hi there, guys, I really need your help. I've got
a domestic dilemma and it's quite danger of becoming a
domestic drama. My question for you today is is it
okay to let the dog lick the dishes clean before
they get washed up?

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Okay? How are you washing them?

Speaker 5 (34:10):
Though?

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Are you hand washing them or are they going into
a dishwasher? Because I think dishwasher like that's like an
hour wash. You could do anything.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
You can go the toilet on them and put them
in the dishwasher. Don't but I.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Think you're discussing from Lah's a dump in the dishwashers.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Serious question though, how is it is it? Are you
hand washing or your dishwasher?

Speaker 10 (34:31):
Well, it depends. I mean something's going the dishwasher, obviously,
but some pots and pans, plates go in the dishwasher.
Some are hand washed. So it's a bit of boat.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
What kind of dog is it?

Speaker 10 (34:42):
Well it's a boy dog for a start. Well we
know what he licks.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Dogs lick their genitals. Okay, I do not know where
that's going, all right.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
I need I need to do to the bottom of this. Linda,
who in your household has a problem with Who doesn't
have a problem with it.

Speaker 10 (35:02):
I think it's a great environmental initiative. It's and it's Yeah,
I'm good with it, have my hobby and kids. They
think it's disgusting and unhygienic.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Ohlinda, we've just seen the video of your dogs. Not
only as your dog licking the plates, your dog is
literally inside the dishwasher.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
If anyone wants a mental image, google and eater eating
ants out of a well tongue. Its tongue is like
ten centimeters long, looking the bowling naise off those porcel
and Maxwell Brooks.

Speaker 2 (35:32):
That's disgusting.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
You call it.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
You can't do that, Linda.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Give the dogs own But I know.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
I said you could take a dump on a plate
and then put in a dishwasher, But I changed my mind.

Speaker 4 (35:44):
After watching it.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
If you're at the dinner table and you've had spag
bowl and there's a bit of mintce on the plate,
I'm all for putting the plate down on the ground
letting the dog clean it up. But filling a dirty
dishwasher and letting the dog go at it like ribs
and rump style on it, like a rack of ribs.
That's fair.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Oh, I can't stop watching this video. We're gonna have
to put this in socials.

Speaker 7 (36:03):
I think.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Also, surely it can't be good for the dog's digestion.
It's okay to give him a little bit of a lick,
but letting them lick every plate, I feel like it's
just going to make the poor dog sick. No, No,
I don't think it's gonna I mean, it could make
him sick.

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Linda.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
I just want to say, I'm in two minds about
this because we have a dog and a cat in
our household, and we for our cat especially, we have
like a little side plate, and if we interchange, it's
just like it's like a little bread plate, entree It's, yeah,
like a little entree plate. But we don't have a
specific cat plate. So that goes in the dishwasher and
then it goes back into the draw and then another
one comes out. So who knows, everyone's eating off the
cat plate, but the dog plate in the dishwasher just

(36:37):
feels different, Linda. So I think I'm taking a husband's
side on this one.

Speaker 10 (36:42):
Okay, So I'm hearing appalling. I'm just hanging my head.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
Although sorry to shame you. No, you know, I might
be convinced because I don't have a dog. Although you
know when you wash it dishes in the dishwasher and
then it comes out and there's still a bit of
grime left on them, like you've kind of got to
do again. Have you found, Linda, that with the dog
licking them, you only ever have to do one cycle
on the dishwasher.

Speaker 10 (37:05):
Yes, it's so environmentally friendly.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
It really is dog looking.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
If you if your dishes not coming out clean, you
need to clean the dishwasher. You know that you need
to clean a dishwasher, right. You don't know that, did you.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
It's a dishwasher, clean the dish clean a filter. You're disgusting.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Oh, Linda, so sorry, But I'm on.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
Your husband's side.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yeah, I'm one husband.

Speaker 8 (37:27):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (37:28):
I asked the question, I'm hearing the decision.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
I cannot be unhappy with you dogs, very cute dogs.
I disagree. It's feral. It's like a matt It had
teeth coming out of the sides, and it had a tongue.

Speaker 2 (37:40):
To interest yourself, I'm not going that far, all right.
So I completely put my foot in it yesterday and
something happened and I honestly, I can't stop thinking about
it because part of me feels bad. But also it's
one of those situations where you're like, Oh, that could
only happen to me, That could only happen to me?

Speaker 3 (37:57):
What did you do? You can be very blunt like
in it we love you, but sometimes you deliver news.
Would you agree with it? And Laura is straight to
the point, Oh, yes, yeah you are.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
There's there's no buffer in a bad way or a
good way.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
You go straight for the jugular. People nibble you're not
afraid of confrontation, which I know I think I am.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
Though that's the problem. I don't think you are.

Speaker 3 (38:18):
Do you have a therapist part I can recommend the work?

Speaker 1 (38:22):
So this this is the reason you hope made someone
cry physically or emotionally.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Definitely, I'm not a I'm not physical when we talking
about confrontation, not like accillently trip someone over and they cried.
I didn't actually go for the jugular. No, So so
yesterday we were on a photo shoot. Not I wasn't
in the photo shoot. I was directed in the photo shoot.
So I have I have a jewely label. Tony may
you know? There you go City but we had a
we had a photo shoot yesterday and and I get

(38:49):
to be the creative director of these shoots and it's
really fun and it's a whole thing. Got the model,
You've got your photographer, and you've got a whole team.
There's there's about fifteen of us there and the model
comes in and I've worked with her before. She's a
like stuning, beautiful young girl. She's only like in her
mid twenties, and she's usually really animated.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
But she was a bit flat.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
And I was like, oh, you know, we all have
these days, Maria. No, you're not on your You're not
on your best a game. And the problem was, though,
is that this shoot, it wasn't just like a model
like you know, striking blue steel posers. I needed her
to be animated. I needed her to be excited and
to like and be really expressive.

Speaker 3 (39:23):
Right.

Speaker 2 (39:24):
So we get in there and we've done a few
different looks and a few different shots, and I was like,
oh God, she's just not We're not quite there, She's
not quite getting it. So I was like, Okay, you
know what I'll do. I'll call out different expressions for
her to do. So I'm standing to the side and
she's obviously there, you know, getting photos taken. I was like, so,
this is what we're going to do. N I'm going
to call out an expression and you're going to act
out that expression. So if I say happy, it's like

(39:45):
you're going to be happy.

Speaker 4 (39:47):
I know.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
It was.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
It was like feeding it, okay. So I was like, okay,
all right, everyone, so on the count of three, you're
going to be shocked.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
And so then she did a really good job. She
did a shock.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
I feel like I'm preschool.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
It was great.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
It was great, and she really started to warm up
and we were actually getting photos in the way that
we needed them. But the photo that I needed was
I didn't want her to be too over the top,
like shocked or happy. I needed like a bit of
a coy happy surprise look, which is a very specific
kind of look that's hard to nail.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
You're a shocking director, you're like scorces, like, no one.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
Can do those right now for us, just like, how
did you do that?

Speaker 3 (40:22):
Do it?

Speaker 2 (40:22):
It's like it's a close I could see.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
What just happened.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
It's like no, it's like you need to have a
bit of a smise, you know. It's closed mouth, but
it's a oh yeah, well, well no, because if I
was directing you, I would say certain things to get
you to okay, but give me, give me your give
me your look, no terrible as well? Okay. Anyway, So
we started off with shocked. Shocked was a bit too expressive.

(40:49):
Then I was like, okay, give me happy shocked, and
she gives me happy shocked, and I was like, I
was just settled out there, much like, yeah, take take
the top off that one, all right. So we went
through a couple of other expressions and she's she's get
in there. She's a woman up.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
She's a woman up.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
And I was like, all right, when you're booking someone
for a photo shoot, you usually stalk their social media first, right,
So you go on, you look at their social media
because you don't want to just.

Speaker 3 (41:08):
Look at their model photos.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
You also want to look at the way that they
shoot when they're just being candid, just to really get
like the true look of what these people, you know,
how they can be expressive. So I knew she's got
a boyfriend. They've been here for ages, Like he's beautiful.
The two of them look like they've fallen out of
the sun. They're so glorious together, right, So I was like, okay, honey,
imagine imagine that your gorgeous boyfriend is about to propose

(41:31):
and you know, but you're trying to keep the secret.

Speaker 3 (41:33):
And then she burst out crying.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Burst out crying, and I was like, that's sorry, that's
not the expression that I need right now. He had
broken up with her the day before, why But she
couldn't express anything.

Speaker 3 (41:47):
She was dead inside. She was so rudd mean, for
a decade. You love him, you know, his parents who've invested,
is proposing to you.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Man that fell from the sun. Imagine your glorious boyfriend
is about to propose to you, and you have to
pretend like you don't know.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
Did what? What did she say? Did she tell you?
How did you find that? She kind of just went
a bit madic.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
She started laughing for a second and then burst out crying,
And I was like, something's gone terribly wrong here. But
apparently they'd all been talking about it prior, so the
makeup artist they'd all had a massive conversation, but I
was so busy prepping I just hadn't heard it and
had no idea.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
So I just seemed like I was Laura's walking around
like Demiro backstage, coming happy, sad, happy, sad, mad mad sad,
smiles coy.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
And gets dumped.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Four models crying in the corner. Everyone's around, Laura's doing
it clown faces on me. That is horrible, and we
like sorry. Well, the worst part what I was I.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
Was, I was like, oh god, your bakeup's getting ruined,
Like we're.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
Gonna have to stop down.

Speaker 2 (42:48):
He is so superad.

Speaker 3 (42:52):
Let me tell you a story about how I think
my relationship could be over and I might need to
move out of home all in the same day. I
love story time from Mitch Jury.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
But every week you come and you say, hey, guys,
I still live with my parents, but I know I
should move out because this thing happened at some point
in time. You're going to tell a story and it
might actually end with I'm moving out now because it's
gone too far.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
Well, I'm not thirty years, but give me two more
years then i'll be thirty. Then I might think about
moving out in a twelve month process.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
He moved out at eighteen, Yeah, same, I moved out
at eighteen. Is it because you're just saving money? Like,
what is it about living at home.

Speaker 3 (43:21):
That you're I had a funny little story to tell
the country, and now this has become why he's still
at home. I want to move out. I moved back home.
I did move out because he lives Babe is back home.
And this happened. God on the weekend, right, me and
my boyfriend, Stephen came home from dinner. We went out
to dinner separately. We came home to any an empty house.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
You went out?

Speaker 3 (43:40):
What do you mean you and he went out separately? Well,
I went out, not with my family. It was just
the two of us. Have So you and Stephen went
to dinner.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Can you start that story? Was a terrible start. Yeah,
I thought you meant you went to dinner and he
went to dinner and then you met back up.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
No, no, no, he and I went to dinner together.
I mean not with my family, because you live at home.
We have dinners together all the time.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
Right, So your your family were also out. That's the
house was empty. They got home.

Speaker 3 (44:03):
Yes, so we thought, God, we have some time to strike.
The house is empty with my sister and.

Speaker 7 (44:07):
My mum and dad.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
Right, it's what we're calling.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
So we was more of a spare It wasn't my
best night. But we got it down. And now we
heard my family come home upstairs, and they're upstairs and
all they're home. It's all good. I heard them settle
and go to bed. We'd sort of finished in the bedroom.
And I leave my bedroom and I walk past my sisters,
her doors closed. I'm like, great, she's in bed.

Speaker 5 (44:26):
Talk good.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
I walk past the communal living room and it's pitch black,
and I go, oh, my god, Stephen, you're good to
come out, because sometimes I'm like, don't, don't walk out
naked in front of him. He's already O. Yes he is.
But we run out naked after the shower to have
a shower, you.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Know, yeah, but everyone's gone to bed now, as in
like your family or all asleep.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Correct, And everyone's upstairs except for my sister, so we're clear.
So we run into the shower. We have a shower together.
It's gorgeous, it's really fun. And then we run back in.

Speaker 7 (44:51):
What is this store?

Speaker 3 (44:52):
We run back in, We go to bed. It's all good.
We wake up the next morning and we thought we
got away with it. Scott three three. We walk out
of the bedroom, can't speak. I'm so nervous. I go
into the kitchen and there's my Auntie Karen, and I go, oh,
I a Karen.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
She moved into.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
Cab everyone's living in his house now. And Anna Karen.
First thing she says to me is oh good moaning.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Oh so your Anna Karen stayed the night.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
Arnie Karen stayed the night in the communal living room
downstairs next to my bedroom.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Honey, Annie Karen is very punny.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
Told you it was a good story. There was a
country in the end. Arnie Karen was awake playing Candy
Crush Saga on her iPhone when Stephen and I went
from my bedroom to the shower, Button naked, frolicking like
little cherubs in the forest. We got away with it,
Scott Free. Look at your little button. She heard you.

Speaker 2 (45:45):
She didn't know. I'm worried about the visual. So she's
just laying there in the dark. Your poor auntie. That's
like you should have been apologizing to her. I know,
I feel like she should know. That's when you have
to let someone know you. They're like, like, you have
to do a call. That's what I'm aware that they've
snuck into the house, but imagine that though. Imagine running
in the dark from the bathroom to your bedroom hearing

(46:07):
someone cough.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
Wouldn't you rather have a cough than not know someone
is lurking in the shadow, not.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
If you're already completely naked halfway through the living room.

Speaker 3 (46:18):
I'd rather than just did not know? What should she
have done? You know in the Jurassic Park movies where
they're like, if you sit trying to saurus, just them
really still, that's what she was doing. She was a
candle crash. I could hear something, but she was such
a good Audiana Karen shout out, I love you. She
looked me in the eyes and she just said good
morning and didn't tell my parents, didn't tell anyone.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Take in trouble for having no no, no no.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
But it was kind of like, I know I heard it.
I'm mentally scarred, but I'm not going to bring it up.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
I don't know how I would feel if I, as
a as a grown woman, heard my nephew Archer. He's
now only a little boy, but I'm just trying to
imagine put myself twenty years from now. I don't know
how I would feel if I heard him having I
don't think i'd ever you're adults, right, I mean besides me,
she doesn't act like one. But if you're of the age.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
Of consumers, there at my christening and she was there.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Sorry God, hey Mitch, get that trigger finger ready, please?

Speaker 3 (47:16):
I have a message for all This lad made terribly
not on cube. But anyway, we're the worst conductor in
the opera house mate.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
That's good, just slightly off the beat.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
I am excited about this.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
I want to talk to all the single people out there,
not just the ladies, but the men. To Beyonce, we
don't we don't discriminate here single people.

Speaker 3 (47:37):
Yeah, I heard this new theory.

Speaker 1 (47:40):
Like I was someone that was single for the better
part of ten years, so I love hearing these new theories.
But I heard this new theory about like how to
suss if someone's single because I used to always go
for the very obvious.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
I would just say, hey, do you have a girlfriend?

Speaker 2 (47:52):
Which I think is really effective, although we all know
some people do lie and say no.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
I always go for the glands down for the ring,
but it doesn't always work because a lot of men don't
wear a ring.

Speaker 2 (48:02):
But also some people might not be married yet doesn't
mean they're not in a relationship.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
No, I know, but that's the ring is just something
you would check for, right, It's like the step one
and it's pretty clear you weed it out. But anyway,
I was talking to a friend of mine that had
this amazing theory, and I was like, I just can't
believe I've never thought of that.

Speaker 3 (48:16):
It's called the rain theory. Have you heard of it?

Speaker 2 (48:20):
The rain theory is very simple.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
It's like, if it's one of those nights and it's
horrific weather, you know, it's proper raining, it's storming, that
could be lightning in thunder, who knows, but it's just
it's not sunshine and roses.

Speaker 3 (48:33):
Right.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
If it's raining and you are single, you're going to
go out, aren't you, because you're like, I want to
go meet someone. If you were in a relationship and
it is pouring outside, tell me what you do in
Mitch due.

Speaker 3 (48:49):
You're staying inside, stand and you're just relaxing inside. Yeah,
I'm you.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
I do not know if I agree with this, because like,
if I was single and it was pouring rain outside,
it would still take a lot for me to get
the You went on any sort of courage to get
up and guys, no, yeah, I know, I went on
The Bachelor, and it rained when I was in there too,
But I am lazy when it's raining.

Speaker 3 (49:07):
A general rule, though, you're right, if you're out, people
still go out. Yeah, it's same when it's cold or
it's like bitterly wet. If you're out, you have one
reason to be out, and that is.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
Because you want to find some Yeah, people that are
that loved up and don't need to they'll be like,
you know what, I'll catch up with my friends next
week when it's sunny, Like.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
You're not going out in that weather. So are you
saying that if you're single the only time you should
be like confident that everyone else who is out look
is also single. I'm not trademarking the idea wholeheartedly.

Speaker 1 (49:32):
I don't want anyone to go out and then come
for me and say, Brittany said everyone's.

Speaker 4 (49:36):
Got a wife.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
But britt you've said this before. You reckon And I
mean you've got the equivalent like a gator right for
like if you're trying to us if someone is yay.
But britt you think you have a single radar where
you can tell if someone is in a relationship or
not based on the fact that you were single for
so long, and so you have canvas the whole of
the population.

Speaker 3 (49:54):
It is a lived experience.

Speaker 1 (49:56):
Yeah, as I said, I was single for a decade
and I dated in every country, race, religion, high occupation,
you name it.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
I went on a date with it in the search
for my soulmate.

Speaker 3 (50:04):
Do you think you could pick the single person in
a lineup of humans?

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Oh, HONDI easy? Okay, how do you pick it? Do
you like apart from like asking questions or looking for signs,
like what is it about someone that gives off a
single or.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
A dating vibe?

Speaker 1 (50:18):
I think when you're in person, obviously there's a lot
of context, right, Like, if you're at it wherever you are,
the location depends, bowling club in the day, playing bowls,
you can't tell for sure, right, But if you're at
a bar, there's a vibe. Said well, I was just
trying to think of places that I actually go.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
But like, there's an.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
Energy that people put out for sure, and if you
go and speak to someone, the energy they give you
back is a lot.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
They're either going to give you an energy of like I'm.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
Interested to continue this because I'm single, or they're going
to give you I'm being polite, but it's obvious that
I'm not here for it.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
So what about if they aren't in a relationship but
they're just not interested. Is that energy the same or
is it? I differ.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
I'll always say you will know if somebody is interested.
I always say if you are wondering or don't know,
if they're interested, chances are there.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
I hate to say that you are a gorgeous brunette woman.
It doesn't happen.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
That's why it's like, because if they're not interested, they're
in a relationship. There's no other reasons. If they're single,
they want me, and if they don't, then they're married.

Speaker 3 (51:11):
That doesn't happen for everyone.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
I cannot tell you how many times I have been rejected.
I have been rejected that many times.

Speaker 3 (51:18):
But what was that one blind.

Speaker 1 (51:19):
Guy that with some of your best rang I do
think I have got it down to a fine art.
I think if you went and got three people out
there right now in office, But I don't know. Two
questions Max, one minute, Max, I reckon, I could tell
you single.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
Let's do it. Let's put it to the test, Grace.
Can we get some of the pick up team out there?
The kiss staff?

Speaker 2 (51:40):
I reckon I can wrangle some people, but.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
Don't tell us single just give me just want names people.

Speaker 2 (51:45):
She knows that she has no idea whether I don't
want to know about the life.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
It's famous. She doesn't show me their names.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
Rubbish, I know everyone, Sally John Alex.

Speaker 3 (51:59):
Let's do it singles test. Brittany Hockley our very own
thinks that she could choose a single person out of
a lineup. She reckons she knows if you're single or
in a relationship just by looking at you.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
Also, was this because it's like the aura?

Speaker 2 (52:13):
Is this because you have some sort of psychic abilities
around people who are single in relationship?

Speaker 1 (52:17):
No, do not wrung with that. I'm not a psychic.
I don't want anyone here to think that someone walks into.

Speaker 3 (52:21):
A room and I'm a psychic.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
No.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
I just feel like I've always been able to pick
up people's energy.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
I'm not a psychic, but I can pick up the
energy of whether you're in a relationship or not.

Speaker 1 (52:32):
Well, energy in terms of like if you're at a
bar or a club, or you're out, and the way
someone speaks to you or responds if you've spoken to them.

Speaker 3 (52:39):
People put out different energies.

Speaker 1 (52:40):
Usually if they're single, if they're single and interested, usually,
you know, I've always said if someone's not interested, you know, all.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
Right, Well, all we're gonna do is we're gonna put
it to the test. We've gone to the Kiss FM
staff room. Please enter. Staff is here at the pickup.
We've got Mas, Alicia and Josh. Welcome to the show, guys,
Come on in, let's get you hi. Guys.

Speaker 4 (52:58):
Thanks.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
What a good looking bunch of people of.

Speaker 3 (53:01):
You possibly be single? That's the real question.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
I don't reckon any of them is single. And I
haven't even asked a question yet.

Speaker 3 (53:05):
Why don't we get Mas up to the microphone? He Mas,
you can go first. Beautiful Mas, gorgeous?

Speaker 2 (53:10):
Look at that skin? How could Maz possibly be single?

Speaker 3 (53:13):
You look beautiful today? So Laura, why don't we let
thee do a thing?

Speaker 2 (53:18):
I think she just flirted with me.

Speaker 3 (53:20):
Maybe I means she's a single? That's ma, Mas.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
What was the last holiday you went on? I went
to the Sunshine Coast in December?

Speaker 9 (53:33):
Right?

Speaker 2 (53:33):
Where did you stay?

Speaker 3 (53:35):
I actually stayed in a family. It was a family's property.
It was an apartment on Pridge and Beach.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
She's not single. She's not single. She's in a relationship.
No one stays on a family property if you're single.

Speaker 3 (53:45):
Mass, I'm in a relationship. She's all loved out of
the studio. Is gorgeous. Of course she's got someone. Look
at those glorious superpowers as well.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
Josh step on her.

Speaker 3 (53:57):
Josh the only the only male in Josh.

Speaker 2 (54:00):
Is wearing gloves. Let it be noted that you can't
see whether he's wearing a ring or not, so could
be married.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
Okay, so that does make it hard because normally I'd
go for the ring, but I don't know you. If
we're in a bar situation, I don't know well enough
to say take your gloves off, So you've got to
for something else. Bit of eye contact, bit of a
no because looking Josh is too happy, so he smiles
at everyone.

Speaker 2 (54:19):
So he's blurting with me too.

Speaker 3 (54:21):
She's getting late. Is that what you reckon?

Speaker 2 (54:24):
He had a good night? No, Josh, do you have flatmates?

Speaker 3 (54:28):
No, he's in a relationship.

Speaker 4 (54:31):
Wo Josh, that's two for two.

Speaker 3 (54:36):
So that's incredible.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
That's really impressive. Okay, way more impressed than I thought
it would be. Really, do you know why? Because we
was single for so long. This is like a learned skill.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
She was like literally single for a decade. But she's like, oh, okay,
I know what it is. She's seen them all on
the apps. She's been single for that last year.

Speaker 8 (54:51):
You know.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
She was like, I never saw you on the app,
so you must be in a relationship.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
All right, last one and I think, I mean, I've
worked in this building a long time. One of the
hardest nuts to crack, Alicia.

Speaker 2 (55:00):
She is high.

Speaker 3 (55:01):
Yeah, just step up to the Oh are you shy?

Speaker 1 (55:05):
What does that tell me? Okay, hi, Alicia, how are
you gonna tell her? She's hiding her hands? Okay, no
wedding ring.

Speaker 3 (55:13):
She's there, Brunette. Of course.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
What do you think, Alicia, of the prompts on dating
apps on the bumble?

Speaker 3 (55:23):
You know, you know the prompts on bumble?

Speaker 2 (55:25):
Yeah, yep, No, I'm well.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
Relationship relationship.

Speaker 2 (55:34):
Your face there said prompts, And like even I was like, oh,
she's in a relationship. I've never been on the dat together.

Speaker 3 (55:41):
You've got a partner. Wow, that's impressing. That gives me
a point.

Speaker 2 (55:51):
That was ever, Like, I mean, it's one of those
skills that you're never actually ever going to need in life,
but genuinely my entire life. Okay, but you've still managed
to date guys who were in relationships and cheating on
their partners.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
So how did that happen?

Speaker 2 (56:04):
Bro? I didn't know at the time, That's what I mean.
He wasn't saying that was because I was in the
relationship with him.

Speaker 3 (56:09):
Then they cheated, so I bagged them. So this is
a superpower, but it also adds nothing to anyone's life.

Speaker 2 (56:15):
It's like they got the worst party trick you could
find out? Can we just ask? Can we everyone else?

Speaker 3 (56:19):
Are you impressed by what just happened? Impressed? There's a
lot of impress Yeah, there's impressed.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
She couldn't everyone Look how we impressed everyone else?

Speaker 3 (56:27):
The opposite of the data. I love it, Britt.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
They definitely don't pay me enough.

Speaker 3 (56:31):
I think, Yeah, I think you're okay.

Speaker 2 (56:33):
I don't know if you need to get paid more
for that skill.

Speaker 3 (56:35):
Excuse me?

Speaker 2 (56:36):
How many people do you know they have that?

Speaker 3 (56:37):
That was smooth? It was very good. Don't don't work
like that.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
I thought I could just point at you and like
like like he's a The Rolodex of songs
