Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on Cameragle Land. Hi, guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany, and this is our radio show where we
package up all the best bits every week of the
pickup and we bring it here just for you. Guys.
Our life is.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
We love you. Are you talking so seductively?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
It's been a big day.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
It has been a really big it's been a big week.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It's been a big year. It's been a big life.
So fun.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I'm tired.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Yeah, yeah, June's I mean May. May has been a
big year.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It really has. Hey, do you know what though, I
had a really good time on this show. This was great, No,
I really did. And I told a story last week.
I talked about how Marley dreaming naked at school and
everyone now knows what the state of my downstairs puby
care is like that for me, But also you want
to know who also knows about my downstairs pubycaret No,
(00:57):
the electrician down in Alada. I'll tell you all about
why you coming up on the show. I like to
be naked. I'm a naked person if I'm not at
work and I'm at home and not in front of
my mother in law. I'm naked.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
I love nudity too. Nudity also comes with limits. You
live in your own so you can be naked all
the time. I was about to say saying I don't
want people turn up to my house. Yeah, IM naked
a lot, but I don't want to give too much.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Here's the question.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Don't up in my bushes.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I don't have to give you address. It's okay. I
have a question for you. At what age do you
think you'd stop being naked in front of your kids.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I can't answer this, it'll get me into trouble. But
I also don't have kids, so I don't know. But
I I just think nudity is a beautiful thing to age.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Also, is it different of your kids are daughters verse suns?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yes, there's a lot to it.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
That's not enough to time to unpack it now, So
I don't know why you ask lives the deepest question
right now?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Sorry?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
So?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Also, what do you think the meaning of life is?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Okay? You know what I loved this week? I also
had a great week this week, or it wasn't just you.
I had a brilliant week.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
No, something that I really want to I want to
make this a thing, like I want to bring this
onto the radio show, onto the pod.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Missed connections.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You know when you've locked eype across the train station
platform and you've thought, oh my god, there's a moment,
there's chemistry, there's heat, that's my person, that could be
my person.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I might go over and talk to them.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Then the train comes, they get on the train, and
they go away and you're never gonna see him again.
And for the rest of that week, you're like, I
feel like something's missing in my life and I need
to find that person.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So you go and post it online and you try
and look for them.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
You standing on the platform, green shirt, locked eyes, platform
four at Waterloo whatever. We have the funniest misconnection on
the show today, But it's made me want to do
it in real life, Like it's made me want to
find a misconnection for you guys.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So please let us know.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Slide into Life Uncut podcast DMS, email us the pickup DMS.
Let us know if there's you've had that moment with
someone you haven't been able to stop thinking about them,
we want to help.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
You find them.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Can I just say, it's a real fine line between
being cute and creepy, right, the line is so thin
between the two. Usually it comes down to whether or
not you're attracted to the person as to whether it's
like endearing or creepy.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, but what happens is if they think it's creepy,
they're not going to respond, Like if you make up
the paper and you're like, oh my god, that was
me on platform four in the green shirt. If you're
not into it, you don't respond. But if you are
into it, maybe they were equally trying to find you.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
All Right, Well, like that and so much more is
on the show. Get let's get into it now, Britt.
I want to talk about something that I feel like
most parents have been faced with at one point in another,
and that is the poon ARMI the poon army with
no tools. If you have little kids and you've forgotten
a nappy, or you've forgotten wives, or it's been explosive
and you've forgotten a change of clothes. Everyone has had
(03:31):
to deal with something going very wrong and having to
come up with a quick and fast and hard solution.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Okay, is this one of your kids. They're not in
nappies anymore, are they?
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Noah, I've got a five year old, four year old.
It's been a long time since we've dealt with a
poon army. This is off the back. There's a woman
who's going viral online because she has shared what seemingly
is quite a resourceful solution to a poon army that
she experienced. However, the whole sit situation sounds like an
absolute disaster if you ask me. So, they're on an
international flight, it is three thirty in the morning, and
(04:02):
she has realized that she didn't pack a spare nappy
for her one and a half year old. This little kid.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Looks like on an overnight flight.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
On an overnight imagine waking up at three thirty in
the morning to a turd and being like, oh God,
here we go, Here we go, Code brown everyone. So
what she did is she didn't have a nappy. She
had wipes, but she had panty liners, like her own
panty liners. So she slid a panty liner into the nappy.
(04:29):
I'm guessing to try and absorb as much of the
excess fluid and everything else as possible. No, which you
know what I heard about. Like, I read this and
I was like, I guess it would kind of work,
But I'm left with a lot of questions.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
I feel very sorry for her because I can't imagine.
I have not been in a position, but I would
imagine on a flight, like an overseas overnight flight, there
are a lot of people on there.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
There is guaranteed to be other families with kids.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
I'd be patrolling those aisles until I found like another
mum and begging for a nappy.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's what I'd be doing.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
You know what that is that has spoken like a
true dog mum who's gotten to the dog park and
didn't have a bag. That is a true dog mum
response because I didn't even clock that one.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I would That seems like the most obvious solution.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Do you know why? Because I think if you went
and asked someone else for a nappy, the judgment of like,
why didn't you pack enough nappies? Like I just wouldn't
even think to ask someone for a nappy.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I wouldn't you just say, hey, they've pood wait more
than I would have thought.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That's also what dog people say. So when like your dog.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Is poody, you've run out a back like sorry, they
usually do one, they've done like.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Four, but realistically you just left with one rogue bag,
and I was it. I will never forget. I was
on a flight and it was an international flight, but
it was a day flight. We're going to Balley and
you know, that's a six hour flight. And the family
that was sitting directly in front of me had a
little baby, and I also had my kids with me,
so like we were surrounded by kids and their little daughter.
(05:54):
I think she must have been about maybe two, So
that's not like baby baby like two. Is that is
blown toddler territory. Yeah, And everyone could smell that someone
had pooed their pants, like it was very evident in
the whole of that area of the seating, and so
everyone was kind of quietly being like, oh, who is
And I sniffed both my kids and I was like,
(06:14):
my kids, it's not me the you know, I'm not
responsible for this anyway. Ten minutes later, the family in
front she just lays the little girl down on the
seat and uses the seat that's right next to her
as the change table to change the nappy, like starts
fully changing the nappy in the middle of her.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Is that like a no go?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I don't know. No, you have to take them to
the toilet and use their fold out change it. I
think it's okay to change a nappy in lots of places,
like I'm a change nappy on the go kind of goal,
but absolutely not in a packed flight where every single
other person has to sit there and smell your kid,
Like that's to me that was writ them down on
someone's lap. No, No, absolutely not anyway, so much so
(06:56):
that the air flight hostess came over and she was like,
I'm really sorry, but you cannot that there. You have
to go to the toilet, Like yeah, that's fair. She
looked horrified.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Also, the walk of.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Shame, like when you've got to then stand up with
a stinky baby and everyone's like, oh you're already because
you're like you've already stunk out the cabin.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Then you got to walk a shame like the next.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
The smell's got nowhere to go, it's got nowhere to go.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Heard pucking nappies and go to the toilet.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I do feel sorry for it, because, like I said,
I've been caught out before, and you really have to
get resourceful, like you really have to think about like
what is it that I can use? Do you want
it down there with some toilet paper? Like what do
you do to try and save your kid from a
from a nappyless punami situation.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Give me for taking this side step, but this is
where my brain has gone. When you just said being resourceful.
I do remember a time that you did a poop.
So what Yeah you, Laura, you did a poop and
you Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
This is really taking a side step. And I don't
know if you need to talk about this on radio.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, you already spoke about it on radio. You've just
reminded me. You already forget that. You outed yourself.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
You did a poop and you there was any toilet paper,
so you went into your handbag and you found one
of the girl's socks.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Yeah, that was That was a low point in my life.
That was a low point.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Without talking about being resourceful, You've got to do what
you got to do.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, I was reading this Reddit thread Laura. That gave
me a bit of a chuckle, and it reminded me
of a couple of things I've done in the past
and something that I've heard you throw.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Around a little bit.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Okay, what have I done? Now?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well this could go either way, but this woman was
talking about this awkward encounter she had with her boss
and the way she signed off a phone call.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
So this is her thread. I accidentally said I love.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
You at the end of a call with an important
client yesterday. I heard him giggle as I hung up,
and I was absolutely mortified. Today I received an email
from him. Now, imagine the fact that you've had this
awkward moment you said I love you to someone you
absolutely shouldn't and then you see an email pop up You're.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Like, don't do you not just like hit that one
on the head and be like, sorry, that was I
don't actually love you? Is that way?
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I don't. I don't love you, actually don't have feelings
for you, Like I No, I don't know. I think
it's better that you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Try to pretend it didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Yeah, So this is the email.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Hey, Sarah, just wanted to say that I didn't mean
to laugh at you when you accidentally signed off on
our call with.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
I love you.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Oh. He was just worried about getting in trouble from HH.
He's like, oh God, here we go. Now someone's going
to complain.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I just found it funny because I've definitely done that before,
and I know it happens.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I'm glad you have enough love in your life that
the response comes naturally. If anything, you should be proud
of that smiley face.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Have a great weekend, and we'll follow up about my
call with Chris on Wednesday as discussed no I love
you sign off. Would you want that response or would
you want just like to pretend it didn't happen.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I've done some doozies. Actually, just the other day, our
radio boss Tony walked into the office. We're having a chat,
and then I caught him honey by accident, and we
just steamrolled like it wasn't even a thing. He didn't
even notice. Thanks honey.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Oh he noticed. He looked at me and winked.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Ill.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I must have been in that moment. I was in
the room, and I did just be truly uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
I'm a words of affirmation kind of person, like I'm
an endearing term. Everyone's honey or darling or something.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I did it didn't mean to. It was not intentional.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Also, no offense, Tony. If you're listening, Tony doesn't give honey.
He's not a honey.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
He's gonna hate that, poor Tony. Tony could be a
honey to someone you're not you.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Do you know what I'm really guilty of and I
probably have to work on it.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I throw kisses around day, mean nothing, like they don't
though what they do to me. But whoever I'm emailing,
it doesn't matter whether it's like the finance guy or
the boss, or it's it's a client.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I just throwing kisses, and I'm like, I don't know
if you can do that.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I have one other example. There's many of them, but
this one just lives rent free in my mind. So, like,
I run another business where I was talking to a
client of mine and she had wanted to get a
piece of jewelry made specifically for her mom for Mother's Day.
It was a custom piece, and like, I'd not been
on comms at all. My sister, who's my business partner,
had been managing it. And I just chimed in because
I was like, Hi, so lovely, it's so excited, and
(10:53):
I signed off with have a lovely Mother's Day with
your bum scent have a great time with your bum anyway.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
So she wrote that obviously she could remembering the lines,
but that's a typo.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
It does rhyme with mum and these two letters that
they shares the word.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I know, but really sometimes the autocorrect does your dirty
because there's not it's not an incorrect spelling. But you
would think that AI would be intelligent enough by now
that it would go. You've said Mother's Day, you probably
don't want to refer to your butt. So no, because
a lot of its gonna guess that this is a
mum or like what are you doing on your mother's
Everyone needs to enjoy themselves in different ways, don't they?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
But play on Monday? All right, all right, hey, the
lines are going off. We've got Sarah on the phone.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Hey Sarah, what did you accidentally do to your boss?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
As I was leaving, I blew her a kiss?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Okay, so it's a female.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We've got that.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
And so you want some contact, Yes we do.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
So.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
I'm a disability support worker and it's not unusual for
when I leave for my client to blow me a kiss,
but this particular day she didn't. And it wasn't her though.
I walked outside of her bedroom and her parents were there,
and I blew them kisses as I.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Like, man, you're just giving these kisses out left R
and Zenna, Who does it?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I'd be offended?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
If I didn't get a kiss.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, bless you. I feel like you can get away
with it.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Do you say anything afterwards? Did you just leave it?
Just walk away?
Speaker 4 (12:26):
I didn't say anything to them. I just walked out
the door and I got out there and I just died.
And I thought, Oh, there's no way that they haven't
just turned to each other and gone, what the hell
just happened?
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Oh, you're just a loving, caring person. Good on you.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Thanks, thank you.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Hey, Kasha, what did you accidentally say to your boss?
Speaker 5 (12:46):
I accidentally sent my boss a message saying she's being
an absolute sea bomb today.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
How do you accidentally sin that?
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I feel like just pretty well thought out.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
I was sending it to one of the girls that
wasn't at work, and.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
No, did she have her emails forward it? Or did
you actually just see ce in your boss?
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Just so?
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Can you get the memo?
Speaker 5 (13:10):
It was a text message, so I sent it straight
to her.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Oh, oh my god, you were doing the old like
when you're thinking of someone, so you go and text
typing that message instead?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Oh did she write back? Are you fired?
Speaker 5 (13:22):
She pulled me into her office and yeah, I try
to tell her that it was an accident. And though
it was actually aimed towards a friend called Tracy, but
she was on me. She wasn't impressed at all.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
So, oh my god, oh thank you so much. I'm
glad you're still there.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Thanks Kasha. This happened to me a couple of weeks ago.
But I've been questioning whether or not I should I
should tell the story.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
If you ever question if you should tell String National Radio,
usually the answer is no.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
We usually and also sometimes I'm like, do I have
any dignity left? Also no, do we need content for
the week?
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Fine?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Oh, here it is, here's my soul. So we've been
doing quite a big renovation down south at the moment
of a house a couple of hours drive from where
we live, and when we've been heading down there, we've
been staying and it is so close to being finished
this renovation, Like I just feel like it is the
reno that never ends.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, you're on the home stretch.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
But we were down there staying in the house, and
there was some issues with the electricals because this is
what happens, right when you're renovating a house. The first
time you stay in it, you start to see like
all of the little things that haven't quite been done
or need to be fixed. So we had had an
electrician come out for the day. There was quite a
lot of jobs that he needed to do. He needed
to install the outdoor lights and some inside blah blah
(14:44):
blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
On the edge of my seat. What other lights did
you have to install?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The ones in the bathroom, The outdoor lights weren't connected
to the indoor whatever. It was a whole thing right. Also,
he wasn't bad to look at. The man was very attractive.
That's convenient. It was a good looking rooster, easy on
the eye. So he's in the house running around and
my husband, Matt's there, and we've all kind of like
been trying to get organized for the day at the
(15:08):
same time, but also at the same time we're having
to talk to the electrician who has questions. Anyway, Matt
left and it's just me and it's the electrician in
the house and he's finished for the day. He's been
there for quite a few hours, and he says like, oh,
like see you love all done. I'm going to leave now.
And the house is really close to the beach and
I had been waiting for him to leave so I
(15:29):
could go for a swim. I was desperate to just
get out of the house for the day, and I
left the garage, opened the door open, and I saw
you can see from inside the house straight out into
the street. So I saw him get in his car,
and I saw him drive away. Bye, good looking mister
electrician man. So I got to my bedroom and I
get naked, and I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get my swimmers,
(15:50):
but except I couldn't find my swimmers. They were obviously
downstairs in the laundry. So I get out from the
bedroom and I walk straight downstairs, and I'm midway between
the upstairs and the downstairs, coming down the stairs like
I'm trapped in the in the flight of stairs, and
standing there in the lounge room is the electrician. So
he's come back to the house because there's something that
(16:11):
he's forgotten. Didn't make it known, didn't call out.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
He probably didn't think you were going to strip off.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Within thirty seconds he walked in and I was completely
butt us naked, with nowhere to run except to turn
around and run back up the stairs, which meant not
only did he see my front, he also saw my behind,
because how.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Do you do it?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
How do you navigate it?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
You didn't have to run away, he had to run
away to go.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
He would have had to run up the stairshells, well,
he could turn around.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
I think it's I don't know if he's already seen
the front.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
I just back away slowly.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I'd walk backwards up the stairs like crab claw around
the corner.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
I just had like this three seconds of like absolute
fear take over my body, and I was like, how
do I get out of this situation? Because the only
way forward is backwards? And now I have to turn around.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Oh you just finished telling us saying how good looking
you will? Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
He said?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Goodbye? Are we like? Oh my god? Whoops?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
I didn't know you were here. I thought you'd lambs.
I just happened to be making on stairs. I told
about this story and he was like whatever, Laura shut
off because as Yeah, when the electroggy come in, I
was like, he's a good looking rooster, is any man?
And then I had to tell Matt that I got
naked in front of him. It didn't go down well.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Imagine if Matt walks in and just has this awkward
moment where he says, you need.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
On the stairs looking down and here and looking at you.
You're looking at him there. It's like the awkward triangle.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Anyway, I can't ever see him. No, he's coming back
to the house and I have to leave.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
It's gotta put the solar in.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, I'll tell you about that though, Laura.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Remember back in the day, those missed connections that people
used to do, like the equivalent of a newspaper dating site.
So if you had a moment with someone in real life,
like you were getting the train to work and you
looked across the platform and you saw somebody and you
had this moment across it and you were like wow,
and they were giving you the eyes back then they got.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
On the train.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
You never saw them again.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
You know what this was, And I wonder if it
rolled out all across the country or not. But this
was the free newspaper that you would get on the train,
and there was a column, a special dedicated editor's column
where you wrote into the editor. And you were like
platform two, one o'clock. You were wearing a red hat.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
It always says you green shirt, me high ponytail.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
I laughed at you.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Whatever.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
It's like, it's always these, and then they're supposed to
find it and find you when you live happily ever after.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I remember this like vividly because I would always look
to try and see if someone had sent one in
about me. Oh, no, narcissist, a loser? I don't know.
Narcissist is the right word, or just a loser is
the right way. I was like, so desperate for someone
to love me.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Well, I have had an idea off the back of
one that I have seen one. So some people are
still putting them online, like, some people are still finding
them and putting them online. It's not a thing like
it was. But I just need you to listen to
this because I was laughing out loud. This is on
a site misconnection site. You were the tall brunette with
a near perfect body that farted in the bread section
last night. I was the tall guy next to you
(19:00):
that looked over and asked, was that you? You quickly replied, no,
it wasn't. You almost seemed insulted that I would even ask.
As the stink grew, you continued to deny your flatuance,
but it was evident I tried to get rid of
the stench by waving two loaves of chabbata bread.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
You proceeded to storm off in an angry manner.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
You are beautiful, and even if you are a liar
and you fart like a Clyesdale, I'd still love to
meet up.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
That's not real.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
I died of life.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
It was so funny. It got me thinking I could
be real. People let them drop accidentally all the time.
There's only two people in an aisle and there's a
smell and you know it's not you.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You then know it's the only other person there.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
When you started that, I thought you were about to
say this has been written about me, but then as
it proceeded to be talking about Barts. But you know, okay,
this is a real tangent. We don't have to go
down this path, but I'm going to say it anyway.
I walked into a lyft the other day, got on
at level two. There was only one person in lyft,
and then we traveled to and it was so evident
that they had just farted in the lift before I
got in. Also not okay, a funny story.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Sorry, okay, I've just been thinking about it so dumb.
So I never fart in front of my fiance ban
it's like a thing I've just said, I don't fright
in front of partners, like I'll do it in other locations.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
So recently, so dumb.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Recently, I was over visiting him and we were practicing
our first dance for our wedding, and we filmed the
whole thing.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
We put the camera up, and then we just proceed
to do our dance. Now it's only he and I
in the hotel room.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
It's not a dance studio.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
We're just in a home. Anyway, he lifted you up,
you accidently farted.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
No, but I farted, but it was quiet, so I
was like, didn't care. Then I smelt it and I
was like, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Got it on the front of foot. Yeah, but I
don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I stopped and I was like, babe, did you just fart?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And he was like, I know, it's so obvious because
he knows it wasn't him, and he's like no, and
I was like, yes, you did. That's disgusting. He's like,
oh my god, you did. And that was me trying
to get myself.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Out of it. We're only in this anyway. We have
this full fight on camera, gout who farted?
Speaker 1 (21:08):
But obviously it was me, Like what was I thinking?
I'm sorry, but are you fourteen years old? And secondly,
what has this got to do with lost connections?
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Sorry, no it's not.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
It was back to the fight, So okay, I took
it a little sideway. Here's my idea. I want to
help people. There are people out there. I know there
is someone listening right now that has had that moment
who I mean sorry.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Who's had a misconnection?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Who's farted in a sip mugget?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I want to help a miss connection, like I want
to find one and make it happen. So we are
looking for people that might have had that moment anywhere
in a nightclub or walking to work, or at work,
or in a cafe anytime. We want you to call
up and we're going to try and help you, and
we're going to make this well.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
This is my plan. It might not work after a
couple of weeks, and the producers can it. It's gonna
be a mini series.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Let's go, let's go whole hog in the interim until
that happens, Let's put everything all the resources we have.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
What's more important? Love or money? Or love and money
maybe we'll find.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
You both call up or writing to the Pickup, writing
to Laura and myself on Instagram or the pickups Instagram
or the wind page whatever. If you have a misconnection
or somebody that you are looking for, we want to
help you find them.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Like we genuinely want to try and make this happen, Britt.
I also want to point out to you that these
things only end well if the other person is interested.
Otherwise it comes off like they're a stalker. But like,
that's okay, we can figure that out live on air, you.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Just said you looked every week to see if you
were in it people wanted, Britt.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
You were telling a story a while back about your
wedding invitations and how you got into a little bit
of strife because of the language barrier. When you set
out your invites, you said no thongs, and it was
taken very incorrectly.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Because all my fiance's European, so all of his friends
and family are euro and they thought when I said
no thongs.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
That they weren't allowed to wear a G string. Yeah,
so that's a pretty strict dress code if I'm monitoring
there under it.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Fe're like everyone that walks in you're like, I'll just
have one quick look before you're allowed to dress. Yep,
you're in. Well, this is gonna make you feel a
little bit better, brute, because there is a wedding invitation
that's gone viral off the back of a very unfortunate
accident that was made a spelling error. We've all been
subject to spelling errors, you know, We've all sent a
message and then accidentally it's like auto corrected to a
(23:17):
word that we didn't want it to be. Yeah, there's
not that many people that use the word duck all
the time, but apparently that's what iPhones think, you know
it just yeah, should we unpack that one talk in
the afternoon.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Okay. So there's a couple who sent out their wedding
invitation and lovely they had all dervs on the menu
was one of the first things that was written. Unfortunately,
they did not spell check or proofread their wedding invitation
that was sent out. But not only was it sent out,
this wasn't a digital invitation. This was a printed, hard
copy invitation which had lovely golden bossing on it. So
(23:51):
I'm sure it cost him a pretty penny. I do
have invite here. Yeah, it looks beautiful. It doesn't say
all derves though. What it does say, unfortunately, is horse ovaries.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I can see how this has happened, or dervs is
actually spelled sort of like horse overies.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
It's like ho rs that's essentially horse right.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
As if you're going to say it in phthetically.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
How would they say or verse looks like almost ovaries,
So I can understand.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Why Google's been like, oh, they must be trying to talk.
Maybe they're a vet.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Imagine about the horse over Imagine getting to a wedding
and they're serving you horse overies. Thank you, that's delicious.
Imagine they get dean or fried.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Do you think people picked up on that and thought, oh,
it's spelling mistake or.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
People were like is this some sort of weird like
cultural thing, or like who's.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Eating in horse overies?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Well, look, we've come across some very unfortunate spelling errors.
And I'm not just talking about like sending an incorrect
text to someone who you're friends with. I'm talking about
businesses that have printed signs or things that are like
truly embarrassing that you kind of like, once it's up,
you're like, well, what do we do now? Do we
have to take that whole thing down and start again?
And I wanted to read something out to you because
they're so great. McDonald wrote, hiring smiling faces for afternoon shits.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Nah, that's intentional.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
There's been a sixteen year old it's been employed to
go out in the front and do that.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
They're earning eleven dollars an hour.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Some some little kid hates their job and they thought
this was funny. They were, in fact the little shit. Okay,
another one here. This is a very old sign that's
been up for a really long time. It's in a
parking lot and it says illegally parked cars will be fine.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
No, that has said fine, and someone's taken off so
that they can park there one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
That is actually really smart.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
All right, well what is this one? How do you
describe this one?
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Britt, please pay your parking fee before existing, not exiting existing.
And I really like this one. This wasn't the front
of a doughnut king and it said mini dog nuts.
I feel like I feel like.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Grace on the case has something over there.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
I found one said I was replying to a high
level executive called Trudy.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
The whole team was ce seed on it. One of
them pointed out to me that I called her thirty.
I don't recognize the first time.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I just want to finish it off with this because
I feel like we've all been in the boat where
we've made a spelling error mistake, and this is going
to live rent free in my mind. Somebody wrote when
you can still smell his colon on your pillows even
when he's not there,
This episode was recorded on Cameragle Land. Hi, guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany, and this is our radio show where we
package up all the best bits every week of the
pickup and we bring it here just for you. Guys.
Our life is.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
We love you. Are you talking so seductively?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
It's been a big day.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
It has been a really big it's been a big week.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It's been a big year. It's been a big life.
So fun.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I'm tired.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Yeah, yeah, June's I mean May. May has been a
big year.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It really has. Hey, do you know what though, I
had a really good time on this show. This was great, No,
I really did. And I told a story last week.
I talked about how Marley dreaming naked at school and
everyone now knows what the state of my downstairs puby
care is like that for me, But also you want
to know who also knows about my downstairs pubycaret No,
(00:57):
the electrician down in Alada. I'll tell you all about
why you coming up on the show. I like to
be naked. I'm a naked person if I'm not at
work and I'm at home and not in front of
my mother in law. I'm naked.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
I love nudity too. Nudity also comes with limits. You
live in your own so you can be naked all
the time. I was about to say saying I don't
want people turn up to my house. Yeah, IM naked
a lot, but I don't want to give too much.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Here's the question.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Don't up in my bushes.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I don't have to give you address. It's okay. I
have a question for you. At what age do you
think you'd stop being naked in front of your kids.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I can't answer this, it'll get me into trouble. But
I also don't have kids, so I don't know. But
I I just think nudity is a beautiful thing to age.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Also, is it different of your kids are daughters verse suns?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yes, there's a lot to it.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
That's not enough to time to unpack it now, So
I don't know why you ask lives the deepest question
right now?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Sorry?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
So?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Also, what do you think the meaning of life is?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Okay? You know what I loved this week? I also
had a great week this week, or it wasn't just you.
I had a brilliant week.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
No, something that I really want to I want to
make this a thing, like I want to bring this
onto the radio show, onto the pod.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Missed connections.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You know when you've locked eype across the train station
platform and you've thought, oh my god, there's a moment,
there's chemistry, there's heat, that's my person, that could be
my person.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I might go over and talk to them.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Then the train comes, they get on the train, and
they go away and you're never gonna see him again.
And for the rest of that week, you're like, I
feel like something's missing in my life and I need
to find that person.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So you go and post it online and you try
and look for them.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
You standing on the platform, green shirt, locked eyes, platform
four at Waterloo whatever. We have the funniest misconnection on
the show today, But it's made me want to do
it in real life, Like it's made me want to
find a misconnection for you guys.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So please let us know.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Slide into Life Uncut podcast DMS, email us the pickup DMS.
Let us know if there's you've had that moment with
someone you haven't been able to stop thinking about them,
we want to help.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
You find them.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Can I just say, it's a real fine line between
being cute and creepy, right, the line is so thin
between the two. Usually it comes down to whether or
not you're attracted to the person as to whether it's
like endearing or creepy.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, but what happens is if they think it's creepy,
they're not going to respond, Like if you make up
the paper and you're like, oh my god, that was
me on platform four in the green shirt. If you're
not into it, you don't respond. But if you are
into it, maybe they were equally trying to find you.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
All Right, Well, like that and so much more is
on the show. Get let's get into it now, Britt.
I want to talk about something that I feel like
most parents have been faced with at one point in another,
and that is the poon ARMI the poon army with
no tools. If you have little kids and you've forgotten
a nappy, or you've forgotten wives, or it's been explosive
and you've forgotten a change of clothes. Everyone has had
(03:31):
to deal with something going very wrong and having to
come up with a quick and fast and hard solution.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Okay, is this one of your kids. They're not in
nappies anymore, are they?
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Noah, I've got a five year old, four year old.
It's been a long time since we've dealt with a
poon army. This is off the back. There's a woman
who's going viral online because she has shared what seemingly
is quite a resourceful solution to a poon army that
she experienced. However, the whole sit situation sounds like an
absolute disaster if you ask me. So, they're on an
international flight, it is three thirty in the morning, and
(04:02):
she has realized that she didn't pack a spare nappy
for her one and a half year old. This little kid.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Looks like on an overnight flight.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
On an overnight imagine waking up at three thirty in
the morning to a turd and being like, oh God,
here we go, Here we go, Code brown everyone. So
what she did is she didn't have a nappy. She
had wipes, but she had panty liners, like her own
panty liners. So she slid a panty liner into the nappy.
(04:29):
I'm guessing to try and absorb as much of the
excess fluid and everything else as possible. No, which you
know what I heard about. Like, I read this and
I was like, I guess it would kind of work,
But I'm left with a lot of questions.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
I feel very sorry for her because I can't imagine.
I have not been in a position, but I would
imagine on a flight, like an overseas overnight flight, there
are a lot of people on there.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
There is guaranteed to be other families with kids.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
I'd be patrolling those aisles until I found like another
mum and begging for a nappy.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's what I'd be doing.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
You know what that is that has spoken like a
true dog mum who's gotten to the dog park and
didn't have a bag. That is a true dog mum
response because I didn't even clock that one.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I would That seems like the most obvious solution.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Do you know why? Because I think if you went
and asked someone else for a nappy, the judgment of like,
why didn't you pack enough nappies? Like I just wouldn't
even think to ask someone for a nappy.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I wouldn't you just say, hey, they've pood wait more
than I would have thought.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That's also what dog people say. So when like your dog.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Is poody, you've run out a back like sorry, they
usually do one, they've done like.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Four, but realistically you just left with one rogue bag,
and I was it. I will never forget. I was
on a flight and it was an international flight, but
it was a day flight. We're going to Balley and
you know, that's a six hour flight. And the family
that was sitting directly in front of me had a
little baby, and I also had my kids with me,
so like we were surrounded by kids and their little daughter.
(05:54):
I think she must have been about maybe two, So
that's not like baby baby like two. Is that is
blown toddler territory. Yeah, And everyone could smell that someone
had pooed their pants, like it was very evident in
the whole of that area of the seating, and so
everyone was kind of quietly being like, oh, who is
And I sniffed both my kids and I was like,
(06:14):
my kids, it's not me the you know, I'm not
responsible for this anyway. Ten minutes later, the family in
front she just lays the little girl down on the
seat and uses the seat that's right next to her
as the change table to change the nappy, like starts
fully changing the nappy in the middle of her.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Is that like a no go?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I don't know. No, you have to take them to
the toilet and use their fold out change it. I
think it's okay to change a nappy in lots of places,
like I'm a change nappy on the go kind of goal,
but absolutely not in a packed flight where every single
other person has to sit there and smell your kid,
Like that's to me that was writ them down on
someone's lap. No, No, absolutely not anyway, so much so
(06:56):
that the air flight hostess came over and she was like,
I'm really sorry, but you cannot that there. You have
to go to the toilet, Like yeah, that's fair. She
looked horrified.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Also, the walk of.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Shame, like when you've got to then stand up with
a stinky baby and everyone's like, oh you're already because
you're like you've already stunk out the cabin.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Then you got to walk a shame like the next.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
The smell's got nowhere to go, it's got nowhere to go.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Heard pucking nappies and go to the toilet.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I do feel sorry for it, because, like I said,
I've been caught out before, and you really have to
get resourceful, like you really have to think about like
what is it that I can use? Do you want
it down there with some toilet paper? Like what do
you do to try and save your kid from a
from a nappyless punami situation.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Give me for taking this side step, but this is
where my brain has gone. When you just said being resourceful.
I do remember a time that you did a poop.
So what Yeah you, Laura, you did a poop and
you Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
This is really taking a side step. And I don't
know if you need to talk about this on radio.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, you already spoke about it on radio. You've just
reminded me. You already forget that. You outed yourself.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
You did a poop and you there was any toilet paper,
so you went into your handbag and you found one
of the girl's socks.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Yeah, that was That was a low point in my life.
That was a low point.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Without talking about being resourceful, You've got to do what
you got to do.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, I was reading this Reddit thread Laura. That gave
me a bit of a chuckle, and it reminded me
of a couple of things I've done in the past
and something that I've heard you throw.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Around a little bit.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Okay, what have I done? Now?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well this could go either way, but this woman was
talking about this awkward encounter she had with her boss
and the way she signed off a phone call.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
So this is her thread. I accidentally said I love.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
You at the end of a call with an important
client yesterday. I heard him giggle as I hung up,
and I was absolutely mortified. Today I received an email
from him. Now, imagine the fact that you've had this
awkward moment you said I love you to someone you
absolutely shouldn't and then you see an email pop up You're.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Like, don't do you not just like hit that one
on the head and be like, sorry, that was I
don't actually love you? Is that way?
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I don't. I don't love you, actually don't have feelings
for you, Like I No, I don't know. I think
it's better that you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Try to pretend it didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Yeah, So this is the email.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Hey, Sarah, just wanted to say that I didn't mean
to laugh at you when you accidentally signed off on
our call with.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
I love you.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Oh. He was just worried about getting in trouble from HH.
He's like, oh God, here we go. Now someone's going
to complain.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I just found it funny because I've definitely done that before,
and I know it happens.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I'm glad you have enough love in your life that
the response comes naturally. If anything, you should be proud
of that smiley face.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Have a great weekend, and we'll follow up about my
call with Chris on Wednesday as discussed no I love
you sign off. Would you want that response or would
you want just like to pretend it didn't happen.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I've done some doozies. Actually, just the other day, our
radio boss Tony walked into the office. We're having a chat,
and then I caught him honey by accident, and we
just steamrolled like it wasn't even a thing. He didn't
even notice. Thanks honey.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Oh he noticed. He looked at me and winked.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Ill.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I must have been in that moment. I was in
the room, and I did just be truly uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
I'm a words of affirmation kind of person, like I'm
an endearing term. Everyone's honey or darling or something.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I did it didn't mean to. It was not intentional.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Also, no offense, Tony. If you're listening, Tony doesn't give honey.
He's not a honey.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
He's gonna hate that, poor Tony. Tony could be a
honey to someone you're not you.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Do you know what I'm really guilty of and I
probably have to work on it.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I throw kisses around day, mean nothing, like they don't
though what they do to me. But whoever I'm emailing,
it doesn't matter whether it's like the finance guy or
the boss, or it's it's a client.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I just throwing kisses, and I'm like, I don't know
if you can do that.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I have one other example. There's many of them, but
this one just lives rent free in my mind. So, like,
I run another business where I was talking to a
client of mine and she had wanted to get a
piece of jewelry made specifically for her mom for Mother's Day.
It was a custom piece, and like, I'd not been
on comms at all. My sister, who's my business partner,
had been managing it. And I just chimed in because
I was like, Hi, so lovely, it's so excited, and
(10:53):
I signed off with have a lovely Mother's Day with
your bum scent have a great time with your bum anyway.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
So she wrote that obviously she could remembering the lines,
but that's a typo.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
It does rhyme with mum and these two letters that
they shares the word.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I know, but really sometimes the autocorrect does your dirty
because there's not it's not an incorrect spelling. But you
would think that AI would be intelligent enough by now
that it would go. You've said Mother's Day, you probably
don't want to refer to your butt. So no, because
a lot of its gonna guess that this is a
mum or like what are you doing on your mother's
Everyone needs to enjoy themselves in different ways, don't they?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
But play on Monday? All right, all right, hey, the
lines are going off. We've got Sarah on the phone.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Hey Sarah, what did you accidentally do to your boss?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
As I was leaving, I blew her a kiss?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Okay, so it's a female.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We've got that.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
And so you want some contact, Yes we do.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
So.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
I'm a disability support worker and it's not unusual for
when I leave for my client to blow me a kiss,
but this particular day she didn't. And it wasn't her though.
I walked outside of her bedroom and her parents were there,
and I blew them kisses as I.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Like, man, you're just giving these kisses out left R
and Zenna, Who does it?
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I'd be offended?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
If I didn't get a kiss.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, bless you. I feel like you can get away
with it.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Do you say anything afterwards? Did you just leave it?
Just walk away?
Speaker 4 (12:26):
I didn't say anything to them. I just walked out
the door and I got out there and I just died.
And I thought, Oh, there's no way that they haven't
just turned to each other and gone, what the hell
just happened?
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Oh, you're just a loving, caring person. Good on you.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Thanks, thank you.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Hey, Kasha, what did you accidentally say to your boss?
Speaker 5 (12:46):
I accidentally sent my boss a message saying she's being
an absolute sea bomb today.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
How do you accidentally sin that?
Speaker 2 (12:55):
I feel like just pretty well thought out.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
I was sending it to one of the girls that
wasn't at work, and.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
No, did she have her emails forward it? Or did
you actually just see ce in your boss?
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Just so?
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Can you get the memo?
Speaker 5 (13:10):
It was a text message, so I sent it straight
to her.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Oh, oh my god, you were doing the old like
when you're thinking of someone, so you go and text
typing that message instead?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Oh did she write back? Are you fired?
Speaker 5 (13:22):
She pulled me into her office and yeah, I try
to tell her that it was an accident. And though
it was actually aimed towards a friend called Tracy, but
she was on me. She wasn't impressed at all.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
So, oh my god, oh thank you so much. I'm
glad you're still there.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Thanks Kasha. This happened to me a couple of weeks ago.
But I've been questioning whether or not I should I
should tell the story.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
If you ever question if you should tell String National Radio,
usually the answer is no.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
We usually and also sometimes I'm like, do I have
any dignity left? Also no, do we need content for
the week?
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Fine?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Oh, here it is, here's my soul. So we've been
doing quite a big renovation down south at the moment
of a house a couple of hours drive from where
we live, and when we've been heading down there, we've
been staying and it is so close to being finished
this renovation, Like I just feel like it is the
reno that never ends.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, you're on the home stretch.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
But we were down there staying in the house, and
there was some issues with the electricals because this is
what happens, right when you're renovating a house. The first
time you stay in it, you start to see like
all of the little things that haven't quite been done
or need to be fixed. So we had had an
electrician come out for the day. There was quite a
lot of jobs that he needed to do. He needed
to install the outdoor lights and some inside blah blah
(14:44):
blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
On the edge of my seat. What other lights did
you have to install?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The ones in the bathroom, The outdoor lights weren't connected
to the indoor whatever. It was a whole thing right. Also,
he wasn't bad to look at. The man was very attractive.
That's convenient. It was a good looking rooster, easy on
the eye. So he's in the house running around and
my husband, Matt's there, and we've all kind of like
been trying to get organized for the day at the
(15:08):
same time, but also at the same time we're having
to talk to the electrician who has questions. Anyway, Matt
left and it's just me and it's the electrician in
the house and he's finished for the day. He's been
there for quite a few hours, and he says like, oh,
like see you love all done. I'm going to leave now.
And the house is really close to the beach and
I had been waiting for him to leave so I
(15:29):
could go for a swim. I was desperate to just
get out of the house for the day, and I
left the garage, opened the door open, and I saw
you can see from inside the house straight out into
the street. So I saw him get in his car,
and I saw him drive away. Bye, good looking mister
electrician man. So I got to my bedroom and I
get naked, and I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get my swimmers,
(15:50):
but except I couldn't find my swimmers. They were obviously
downstairs in the laundry. So I get out from the
bedroom and I walk straight downstairs, and I'm midway between
the upstairs and the downstairs, coming down the stairs like
I'm trapped in the in the flight of stairs, and
standing there in the lounge room is the electrician. So
he's come back to the house because there's something that
(16:11):
he's forgotten. Didn't make it known, didn't call out.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
He probably didn't think you were going to strip off.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Within thirty seconds he walked in and I was completely
butt us naked, with nowhere to run except to turn
around and run back up the stairs, which meant not
only did he see my front, he also saw my behind,
because how.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Do you do it?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
How do you navigate it?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
You didn't have to run away, he had to run
away to go.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
He would have had to run up the stairshells, well,
he could turn around.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
I think it's I don't know if he's already seen
the front.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
I just back away slowly.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I'd walk backwards up the stairs like crab claw around
the corner.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
I just had like this three seconds of like absolute
fear take over my body, and I was like, how
do I get out of this situation? Because the only
way forward is backwards? And now I have to turn around.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Oh you just finished telling us saying how good looking
you will? Are you sure?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
He said?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Goodbye? Are we like? Oh my god? Whoops?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
I didn't know you were here. I thought you'd lambs.
I just happened to be making on stairs. I told
about this story and he was like whatever, Laura shut
off because as Yeah, when the electroggy come in, I
was like, he's a good looking rooster, is any man?
And then I had to tell Matt that I got
naked in front of him. It didn't go down well.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Imagine if Matt walks in and just has this awkward
moment where he says, you need.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
On the stairs looking down and here and looking at you.
You're looking at him there. It's like the awkward triangle.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Anyway, I can't ever see him. No, he's coming back
to the house and I have to leave.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
It's gotta put the solar in.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, I'll tell you about that though, Laura.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Remember back in the day, those missed connections that people
used to do, like the equivalent of a newspaper dating site.
So if you had a moment with someone in real life,
like you were getting the train to work and you
looked across the platform and you saw somebody and you
had this moment across it and you were like wow,
and they were giving you the eyes back then they got.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
On the train.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
You never saw them again.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
You know what this was, And I wonder if it
rolled out all across the country or not. But this
was the free newspaper that you would get on the train,
and there was a column, a special dedicated editor's column
where you wrote into the editor. And you were like
platform two, one o'clock. You were wearing a red hat.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
It always says you green shirt, me high ponytail.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
I laughed at you.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Whatever.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
It's like, it's always these, and then they're supposed to
find it and find you when you live happily ever after.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I remember this like vividly because I would always look
to try and see if someone had sent one in
about me. Oh, no, narcissist, a loser? I don't know.
Narcissist is the right word, or just a loser is
the right way. I was like, so desperate for someone
to love me.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Well, I have had an idea off the back of
one that I have seen one. So some people are
still putting them online, like, some people are still finding
them and putting them online. It's not a thing like
it was. But I just need you to listen to
this because I was laughing out loud. This is on
a site misconnection site. You were the tall brunette with
a near perfect body that farted in the bread section
last night. I was the tall guy next to you
(19:00):
that looked over and asked, was that you? You quickly replied, no,
it wasn't. You almost seemed insulted that I would even ask.
As the stink grew, you continued to deny your flatuance,
but it was evident I tried to get rid of
the stench by waving two loaves of chabbata bread.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
You proceeded to storm off in an angry manner.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
You are beautiful, and even if you are a liar
and you fart like a Clyesdale, I'd still love to
meet up.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
That's not real.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
I died of life.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
It was so funny. It got me thinking I could
be real. People let them drop accidentally all the time.
There's only two people in an aisle and there's a
smell and you know it's not you.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You then know it's the only other person there.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
When you started that, I thought you were about to
say this has been written about me, but then as
it proceeded to be talking about Barts. But you know, okay,
this is a real tangent. We don't have to go
down this path, but I'm going to say it anyway.
I walked into a lyft the other day, got on
at level two. There was only one person in lyft,
and then we traveled to and it was so evident
that they had just farted in the lift before I
got in. Also not okay, a funny story.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Sorry, okay, I've just been thinking about it so dumb.
So I never fart in front of my fiance ban
it's like a thing I've just said, I don't fright
in front of partners, like I'll do it in other locations.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
So recently, so dumb.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Recently, I was over visiting him and we were practicing
our first dance for our wedding, and we filmed the
whole thing.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
We put the camera up, and then we just proceed
to do our dance. Now it's only he and I
in the hotel room.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
It's not a dance studio.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
We're just in a home. Anyway, he lifted you up,
you accidently farted.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
No, but I farted, but it was quiet, so I
was like, didn't care. Then I smelt it and I
was like, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Got it on the front of foot. Yeah, but I
don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I stopped and I was like, babe, did you just fart?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And he was like, I know, it's so obvious because
he knows it wasn't him, and he's like no, and
I was like, yes, you did. That's disgusting. He's like,
oh my god, you did. And that was me trying
to get myself.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Out of it. We're only in this anyway. We have
this full fight on camera, gout who farted?
Speaker 1 (21:08):
But obviously it was me, Like what was I thinking?
I'm sorry, but are you fourteen years old? And secondly,
what has this got to do with lost connections?
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Sorry, no it's not.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
It was back to the fight, So okay, I took
it a little sideway. Here's my idea. I want to
help people. There are people out there. I know there
is someone listening right now that has had that moment
who I mean sorry.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Who's had a misconnection?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Who's farted in a sip mugget?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I want to help a miss connection, like I want
to find one and make it happen. So we are
looking for people that might have had that moment anywhere
in a nightclub or walking to work, or at work,
or in a cafe anytime. We want you to call
up and we're going to try and help you, and
we're going to make this well.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
This is my plan. It might not work after a
couple of weeks, and the producers can it. It's gonna
be a mini series.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Let's go, let's go whole hog in the interim until
that happens, Let's put everything all the resources we have.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
What's more important? Love or money? Or love and money
maybe we'll find.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
You both call up or writing to the Pickup, writing
to Laura and myself on Instagram or the pickups Instagram
or the wind page whatever. If you have a misconnection
or somebody that you are looking for, we want to
help you find them.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Like we genuinely want to try and make this happen, Britt.
I also want to point out to you that these
things only end well if the other person is interested.
Otherwise it comes off like they're a stalker. But like,
that's okay, we can figure that out live on air, you.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Just said you looked every week to see if you
were in it people wanted, Britt.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
You were telling a story a while back about your
wedding invitations and how you got into a little bit
of strife because of the language barrier. When you set
out your invites, you said no thongs, and it was
taken very incorrectly.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Because all my fiance's European, so all of his friends
and family are euro and they thought when I said
no thongs.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
That they weren't allowed to wear a G string. Yeah,
so that's a pretty strict dress code if I'm monitoring
there under it.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Fe're like everyone that walks in you're like, I'll just
have one quick look before you're allowed to dress. Yep,
you're in. Well, this is gonna make you feel a
little bit better, brute, because there is a wedding invitation
that's gone viral off the back of a very unfortunate
accident that was made a spelling error. We've all been
subject to spelling errors, you know, We've all sent a
message and then accidentally it's like auto corrected to a
(23:17):
word that we didn't want it to be. Yeah, there's
not that many people that use the word duck all
the time, but apparently that's what iPhones think, you know
it just yeah, should we unpack that one talk in
the afternoon.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Okay. So there's a couple who sent out their wedding
invitation and lovely they had all dervs on the menu
was one of the first things that was written. Unfortunately,
they did not spell check or proofread their wedding invitation
that was sent out. But not only was it sent out,
this wasn't a digital invitation. This was a printed, hard
copy invitation which had lovely golden bossing on it. So
(23:51):
I'm sure it cost him a pretty penny. I do
have invite here. Yeah, it looks beautiful. It doesn't say
all derves though. What it does say, unfortunately, is horse ovaries.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I can see how this has happened, or dervs is
actually spelled sort of like horse overies.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
It's like ho rs that's essentially horse right.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
As if you're going to say it in phthetically.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
How would they say or verse looks like almost ovaries,
So I can understand.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Why Google's been like, oh, they must be trying to talk.
Maybe they're a vet.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Imagine about the horse over Imagine getting to a wedding
and they're serving you horse overies. Thank you, that's delicious.
Imagine they get dean or fried.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Do you think people picked up on that and thought, oh,
it's spelling mistake or.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
People were like is this some sort of weird like
cultural thing, or like who's.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Eating in horse overies?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Well, look, we've come across some very unfortunate spelling errors.
And I'm not just talking about like sending an incorrect
text to someone who you're friends with. I'm talking about
businesses that have printed signs or things that are like
truly embarrassing that you kind of like, once it's up,
you're like, well, what do we do now? Do we
have to take that whole thing down and start again?
And I wanted to read something out to you because
they're so great. McDonald wrote, hiring smiling faces for afternoon shits.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Nah, that's intentional.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
There's been a sixteen year old it's been employed to
go out in the front and do that.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
They're earning eleven dollars an hour.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Some some little kid hates their job and they thought
this was funny. They were, in fact the little shit. Okay,
another one here. This is a very old sign that's
been up for a really long time. It's in a
parking lot and it says illegally parked cars will be fine.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
No, that has said fine, and someone's taken off so
that they can park there one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
That is actually really smart.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
All right, well what is this one? How do you
describe this one?
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Britt, please pay your parking fee before existing, not exiting existing.
And I really like this one. This wasn't the front
of a doughnut king and it said mini dog nuts.
I feel like I feel like.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Grace on the case has something over there.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
I found one said I was replying to a high
level executive called Trudy.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
The whole team was ce seed on it. One of
them pointed out to me that I called her thirty.
I don't recognize the first time.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I just want to finish it off with this because
I feel like we've all been in the boat where
we've made a spelling error mistake, and this is going
to live rent free in my mind. Somebody wrote when
you can still smell his colon on your pillows even
