Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hi guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life. I'm cut, I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany, and this is.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Our radio show, The Pickup.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
It is so every day of the week, if you
on you here, we do a radio show called The Pickup.
And this is like the little bundled up Q package
that we drop at the end of the week where
we pick out our highlights or our favorite bits from
the week.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah, we pick out the best bits, all of the
worst stuff just go well. You know, sometimes live radio,
you don't know what's going to happen, but you know
when you get to pick out the buts you like
the best.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
It's definitely comes together and need a package. Put it
that way.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I did take a class on how to deliver a
child in case you go into labor.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
So britt said, the first thing she learned about whether
or not you know what to do if someone goes
into labor is to give them a stretch and sweep.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
And I was like, they're crowning. There's a crowning. You
gotta get in there.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
And I just really wanted to point out the length
of your nails is not conducive for you to check
if I'm crowning or not doesn't bother me.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
It doesn't do anything to me.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
If you're delivering a child, that's the leasta You're worries
if you could deliver it in child and I'm the
one delivered it.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Having a baby in the studio. Please don't finger me.
Just let me go, Just leave me be.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I wouldn't even call an ambulance. But pretty no, because
the story's too good for me to have delivered it.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Like you need the content, we'd have to I'd get.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
The cameras on, We'd have to get the content. Do
you know why we actually haven't spoken about this.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I'm sure we'll go into more depths soon, but I'm
working up until the day that I'm being induced, basically,
so I could be induced or I could have a baby,
and we just don't know why did this cause? So
BRIT's getting prepped anyway, Look, we have a few things
to talk about in the show. I very poorly pronounced
a word. There is no word in the English language
that's called goodmo. We won't tell you what the word
(01:43):
actually is, but on radio this week I said goodmud.
I think I can figure it, out said, and I
tell it, and I.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Said, it's so confidently as well, Okay, I said, I
just said, good mood. That's just not a word.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
And also something that happened was this week Molly May
did something and she's learned the hard way that there
are consequences in life and you should listen to your mother.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
You do have to learn. So I hope she never
does it again.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Hey, that on the podcast if you listened last week,
we were talking about first date stories, but like not
good ones.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Obviously no one cares about those horror first date stories.
So many ones and like we've Laura and I have
lived through it. We've done it, we did our time.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
I have brought you so many rogue stories over the years,
but I just don't have them anymore because unfortunately, I'm
in a healthy, safe relationship.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's lovely.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Can I just say that we did literally one call out,
like one call out on socials and hilarious, hundreds hundreds
of so funny.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
And I actually thought that we'd had some bad dates
in the past, but you guys have trumped us. So
we decided to bring it over to radio and do
some call outs as well.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
And we've got some real bangers. Anyway, let's get into it. Oh,
happy Monday.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I'm actually I shouldn't say actually, I'm so happy.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
To be here. You've lost the plot.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
But I'm often happy to be here, but I'm particularly
happy to be here today.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Do you know what today is?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
You know how every day has like an international day?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
It's Monday because you often forget.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
No, every day has like an international day or something
like International pie day.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Talk like a pirate day? Yeah, tes, today, can I
tell you a joke quickly? Off today? Just quickly while
we're sitting in it. Why are pirates pirates? I don't know, Brittany,
because they are. You can use that. It's not copyrighted.
What is today, Laura?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Today is International Lazy Day. So if you've been feeling
particularly lazy today.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
We were actually going home. It's been a great show. Hey, everyone,
Tomorrow could have been whoa? I think, mate, Sorry, I
just look at you something that toes out of it.
Laura acts like whoa, what happened?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
But she's like this, Sorry, I'm so lazy. I just
pulled my headphones out. I've decided to finish.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, well, we'll see you tomorrow. It was it was a
nice show, will be up in an hour. No, they're
even lazier doing it.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Okay, we're on the hunt, everyone, We're on the hunt
to try and find the best song of all time.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
And then I've been crying in the break. It's a
big endeavor to undertake. Like, No, it's not because we're
stressed about it.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I am.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I'm really stressed.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
I feel like giving somebody that title is a huge
responsibility that I don't know if I'm prepared for.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I deeply agree.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
But also we were just touching on some of the
songs that were rule nostalgia.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Songs for us while.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
From the Windows to the Wall. No, do you guys
remember the song Butterfly Kisses. It's so sad. I mean,
it's written by God. I think he was a one
hit wonder. Bob Carlisle was his name. But that song,
every time I hear it, I am in tears. Although
it's not my number one song of all time.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Well, okay, I just I did feel a lot of stress.
The pendulum was swinging between Hoody and the Blowfish and
Kat Stevens. I was an old soul when I was younger,
and I do love that music, but I somehow found
myself gravitating towards Aerosmith.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Don't want to miss a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
I do what a banger?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
I can't like the emotions going my heart's palpitating. I'm like,
I'm feeling the emotion in his voice.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Okay, So my song that I put forward as the
best song of all time is definitely debatable, and I
think a lot of people would disagree.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
But it brings me a.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Lot of joy, brings me a lot of passion, hits
me out on a dance floor.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
DJ Grace and it's TLC no scrubs?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Does that not just transport you back to your hands party?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Brit When everyone was up on the boat trying to
do a crump, it's trying.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Sorry, we crow, I was heavily pregnant, trying to try
to what does at work?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
It doesn't work. I don't know the tuesis terminology.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I've just also had a realization Nelly was pretty good
to Nelly's songs too.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
But we're not going there. Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
My next song is I think that.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
It's hard to overlook this one.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
You will feel the same, Laura, because it was a
song at your wedding.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
But I think it's at everyone's wedding. This is when Houston. Yeah,
it was my first dance song Race by Shark or.
Speaker 7 (06:08):
Some fun.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's hard not to. I would go so far as
to say, if you were at a wedding and that
song came on and you didn't get up your sociopath,
it is impossible. I would agree. Do you know what's
the most devastating part?
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Every time I hear that song, I'm just reminded about
the fact that I don't have a video of my
first dance from my wedding because the cameraman stood in
front of his own camera. Yeah, I have a video
of a cameraman's back from my wedding.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
That's truly devastating.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I haven't posted my whole wedding dance yet because I
still think of you and I don't.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Want to rub in your face. But mind you, I
might actually post it this week.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
All right, I have one more, and I think everyone
it's also an iconic wedding song. But the reason why
I'm putting this one forward is because we call it
our family song, and so we sing it to the
girls and they love it and they sing it to us,
and it's just it's a real sentimental piece for us,
it is I Love You Always Forever.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh the best songs of all time. It's a tricky
title to try and pin down.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I feel like we like to put a label on
everything for it, especially relationships. Labels got them for everything.
Also parenting styles. There's even that parenting style show that's
on at the moment. I forgot what it's called.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's I'm sure you've recommended that show. It's got a
Lie Langdon in it.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But like they use different parenting styles, like you know,
the tech parenting or the gentle parenting.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Is it parental guide? That's it?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Thank god for producer Grace who actually knows things.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
On this show. Thank god.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
All right, But there's a new type of parenting style
that's been spoken about recently.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
It's called FAFO parenting. Fa FO like fIF flying flying
when you.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Tap in DA you just fly out and come back.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
No, what it stands for is f around and find
out parenting. So it came from Kylie Kelsey, who is
Travis Kelsey's sister in law, and she was talking about
it on her podcast, and I guess that that's what's
or into mainstream attention. But there's a lot of experts
who have some strong opinions about this have listened to this.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
FAFO parenting, which stands for ground and find out parenting
is the act of having your kids experience the natural
consequences of their actions without getting too involved.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
So an example of this right, a really casual version
of FAFO parenting might be if your kids having attantionments,
they don't want to put a jumper on, but you
know that it's a blizzard outside, and you go, fine,
don't worry a jumper, go outside and figure it out
for yourself. And then you go outside, you don't have
a jumper. They don't have a jumper. You don't give
them your jumper because you didn't prepare, and.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
They freeze to death and their hypothermia, and it's.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Like, you know what, if you're not going to pay
attention to me and the things I tell you, I'm
not gonna help you.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
It depends on what the extreme is. I don't have kids,
I'm not a parent. I can still have an opinion.
My opinion is I think that's absolutely fine.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think we I think we we cottle children too much.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Like if there are no consequences, people don't learn anything
kids or adults, you have to have consequences, and like
this is how you learn anything in life.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Every action has a reaction, Britt, I just honestly thought
you were gonna say the opposite. So you really threw me,
did you. Oh no, my kid, good luck to them.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
That's not There's got to be levels to this, right,
Like I mean, okay, you're at a red traffic light.
Stop at a red traffic light. If my kid's just
gonna run across a road, I'm not gonna be like
ever round of fun. Like there's got to be rules
that you implement and you enforce with your kids to
keep them safe. Like our primary job as parents is
to keep your children safe.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And so if you're not doing that.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Because your kid put up too much of an argument
and you can't be bothered to like pick your battles with.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Them, I don't know. I think it's just lazy ass parenting.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I think it's pretty obvious that people is trying to
keep the kids safe. No one's gonna let them run
out in traffic and see what happens. Like that's not
what we're talking about. I think it's more just about
like what you said, like if you don't put a jumper,
go outside fun, you'll be cold. They'll come back in
in ten minutes because they're cold. But you gotta let
them work it out. Yeah, but sometimes I'm like, okay, cool.
If I'm gonna have that fight with my kid like
that don't want.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
To pack a drink bottle or that don't want to pack.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
A jumper, and they're five and I know that they're
going to be freezing, I'm going to pack the drink
bottle and the jumper, because even if I don't want
to pick the battle to get out of the house,
I don't want to have the battle.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
For the rest of the day.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I don't want to then deal with the next three
hours of my kid complaining because they forgot the thing
that I told them.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I feel like, to be fair, your kid is thirsty,
you will give it water.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Let's not all Laura say.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I think the difference is, yes, you will pack the
drink bottle, Laura, but you let them, for that moment,
feel what it would feel like if Oh my god,
I wish I had my drink bottle. I can't believe
I brought that. You're not gonna make them thirsty, but
they have to have that moment of like, oh I
get it, I get my mum wanted me to bring
that now consequence, that's the lesson loaned. Yeah, because I
think that if we're not letting our kids understand that, like,
(10:44):
not everything is easy, not everything's given to you. Actions,
you know, have repercussions and all of this kind of stuff,
how are you supposed to lean?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I mean, like, I do agree to some extent, but
I think that there is probably kind of ways then,
like the extremism of like ef around found out, like.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Their kids they're learning.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Of course, they're going to push boundaries, and I still
think that as parents it's our responsibility to guide them
in the best way, and that might be sometimes having
an argument about like doing what's the best thing from
the get go. And I don't get me wrong, I
do think pick your battles. Like my kid walks out
of the house with Earmaster two to two and a
swimmer over the top, like she wears whatever the hell
she wants.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I don't care about that battle.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But I think with some things, I'm like, I'd rather
just do it the safer way than worrying about them
making their own decisions and figuring out consequences that could
adversely affect them.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'll send my kids to your house. That's what I
We have to address the elephant in the room. There
is no elephant.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Tell everyone, no one would know if you weren't going
to say it, well, produce a Grace said, I have
to say it. We're just having a conversation evidently before
we were on air and Laura was telling like a
really serious story.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Just repeat the sentence you just said, just as you
said it. Please, please, I said.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
The full gamud, the full and Grace and I look
at each other and were like, sorry, what And you
were like, it's, you know, like the full gamut.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And Grace is like, do you mean gammut? And You're like, no,
gomot no. The second I came.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Out of my mouth, I was like, I really took
a punch, and I don't think you're paid off like
a fifty to fifty chair. I've read the words so
many times, but never in my life have I had
to put Gammett in a set.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
But she didn't admit to fee straight away. Grace did
have to do.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
That Google voice translator where he says.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It out loud. No, that's because everyone wasn't quite sure.
I think I said it with such confidence that everyone
else in the room was like, Grace, is that how
it said?
Speaker 9 (12:36):
Chrace?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Were you sure? Full gammut?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Look, she did say it very confidently, and I said,
maybe I've been saying it wrong.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
She did say so confidently that we both questioned our selves.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
But I'm glad we stuck by it. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
If you were in the full gamut of today's show,
stick around, We've got some pre gross things coming up.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I'm almost forty years old, and it is amazing that
there's still words that to this day I've only read
in a sentence, I've never said out loud, and then
you say them correctly.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I'm so glad that we have a national radio show
to share them on. Do you know what I said?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
One say investigative, investigative journalist.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
How about you say it first? Say it investigative. It's
a typical word. You say it, Grace, investigative.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
See, it's a bit hard, it's a tricky word, but
it's it's always a real what it means. It's a
point of joy whenever brit says it, because it's always
a mistake.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
And I just needed to throw you under a bask
because I'm under it and I wanted to with you
true yourself under it by trying to throw me under it.
It's a really hard word to say, Laura. Picture this.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
You could freeze your body after death, sleep frozen for
two hundred years, and then wake up in the future.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Would you do it? No, really, I really think about that.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I have thought about it. We talked about it earlier.
The answer is no, I don't want it. Firstly, cryogenically
frozen me doesn't want to come back in two hundred
years when all my friends and family are dead.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
What it's no, Okay, listen to this.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
There's this German startup called Tomorrow Bio, and I just
got like down this rabbit hole of this place. They're
charging people two hundred thousand dollars to cryogenically freeze yourself
for this exact purpose, so that in two hundred years,
when the technology is available, you can defrost and be
brought back to the future with the technology to like
(14:23):
help you revive whatever illness might have killed you.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
So like maybe if it was a cancer or something
like that. You can literally pay now to be freezing
now live later.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Yeah, buy now, die now.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Live later.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That should be their model. I think that this is
a scam. I think it is a scam, and a
very lucrative one. They're making two hundred thousand dollars a pop.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Okay, like hear me out. This puts the funnier bit.
It's not that it's funny.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
If you don't have two hundred thousand dollars to freeze
your whole body, you can just pay eighty thousand and
just do your brain.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
But like, where's your brain coming back?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
How?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
What's what? You're gonna wake up and just be a
little brain? They can't do anything for me? Out why
I think this is a scam.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
This just to me reeks of do you guys remember
the Thernos story the woman who like brought out it
was like a blood test, they could detect cancer. She's
ended up in with homes, she's in scams, she's in
prison for it. And it was like a company was
worth billions of dollars. It's one thing to say we're
going to cryogenically freeze you. Is that in two hundred years,
when the technology is there, we can bring you back
to life. Is the same company developing the technology, Like,
(15:23):
how do we know the technology has never been there?
It's still not there one hundred years ago or fifty
years ago, whatever it was. Everyone was saying, oh, we'll
be there in two hundred. We're never going to be there.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I saw of get it, though, because what they're saying
is they're not saying, I guess if you're going to die,
you have two options.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Right, you die and you never get brought back, or you.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Die freeze yourself and potentially have an option of coming back.
So I guess there are the people that are like, hey,
I get it's not a guarantee, but cool, maybe I
can come.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Back in two hundred years.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Maybe it makes more sense if you were like in
your thirties or your twenties, or your thirties or your forties, right,
because you didn't get to live your full life like
you if you were, if there was a possibility that
you're going to die young, you might then explore it.
But if you're eighty, like who wants to come back
as an eighty year old?
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Be like, oh, I have years left in my lab,
let's go.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
So far, the company has preserved six people and five
pets and they're a.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And there are six hundred and.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Fifty people who have already paid, Like, because you obviously
pay before you die. The rules are you don't get
put to sleep. It's not like an euthanasia thing. It's
you have to pre book it, wait till you die,
and then it has to be done really quickly after
you pass away. But six hundred and fifty people have
paid and are waiting their turn.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I wonder if that's like a family because like you
don't want to do on your own. If you're freezing
your pets, it's or freezing someone to come back together.
We'll do the pick up in two hundred year's time
to produce grace. You're saying, you've got some stats graces.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
On the case. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
So there was a big thing about cryogenically frozen people
back in the sixties, but every single person that was
frozen back then, none of them are still frozen because
you have to rely on their family members.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
To keep paying to keep them cold, to keep them cold.
So what it was like forty years and they're like,
we're done.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Yeah, it is to one person that was cryogenically frozen
before nineteen seventy three, that's still frozen.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Do you imagine growing up and you're a kid and
it's like, hey, these are like your bills you've got
to pay, and also this is to keep your great
great great grandpa frozen.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
In case he comes back to life, Like you're gonna
be like stuff that which is r I am convinced
it's a scam.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
I am so convinced that these companies know that people
are not going to be able to upkeep the payments
for two hundred years because no one's going to do that.
So they're like, well, there's probably only gonna be one
or two people who can afford it, and therefore we're
not going to.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Be who's going to sue us they're dead. Like it's
the perfect model. I think it's gonna happen. I wish
I was around in two hundred years to see Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I asked my Instagram followers personally because I found this
really interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Did some research. Seventy thousand people saw this.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Eight percent of people said that they would do it,
and ninety two percent said no way.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
But eight percent's pretty big. That's a lot of people
that are like, yeah, do that. I'd stick around. I
have no interest. I'm just gonna like do this last
to the fullest and then I'll be done. I'm happy
with that. Well, I'll track down your great great great
great great kids.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Now we're asking in the question, give us a call.
What did your kid steal?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Maybe it was my accident the in they're not going
to get in trouble. Maybe they will. Maybe child's a
kleptomaniac and we want to know about it.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
But let us know the reason why we're asking this
is so my daughter, Marley May, she is six years old,
just six, right, and like kids at that age are
still learning about right and wrong, theft and paying for stuff.
They're firstly they're learning about money. They're learning about like
the inherent value of money. That's still kind of a
(18:39):
tricky age, lack of the inherent value of money. They're
also learning to push boundaries. Now, Marli made a mistake,
and it turned out that actually maybe it was partly
our mistake, you know how like you have your apps
and what not linked to your phone and to your
credit card and everything else, and like sometimes these payments
are automated, you know, like you've got your Amazon Prime
(19:00):
automated payments, You've got your Disney Channel automated payments and
it just comes through what she bought.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
So she's cot shopping spree. She's bought Bentley.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
So we never use like I rarely have we like
logged on and used that Amazon Prime recently. Mally doesn't
watch a lot of TV, and she definitely doesn't watch
TV on supervised.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Like what we do is we're going and we put
a movie on. That's the movie. She watches it, and.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Then when the movie ends, I usually know it's ended
because like I can hear her trying to flick around
and listen to like something girls or watch something girls. Right,
And it was only that Matt he changed some settings
on his phone recently, my husband Matt, and the movie
had finished that she was watching, and then he got
this ping notification and it pined to his phone and
it was like your thirty dollars purchase from Amazon Prime
(19:43):
has just gone through. So Marley had just sat there
using the clicker and she'd scrolled through and she'd just purchased.
There's a new movie on which is called How to
Tame Your Dragon, which firstly we'd said she can't watch
because it's too scary.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
She just went on to Amazon and she bought it
for thirty dollars. I wonder how many things she's bought.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
Thing, So we went the thing is, though she's been buying.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Movies and has never watched them because she doesn't get
to She had no concept that she was actually purchasing
these things. So when we went back through the Amazon
Prime account, she's done.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It low at the time.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Interesting to see she just bought exactly she's bought like
her taste in film.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's like kid, it's all kids, it's all like, none
of it.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I mean, thank god, she hasn't discovered roadblocks or anything
like that. But she's been buying like movies, but they're
so expensive because they're.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Still out at the movies.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Oh my god, in real time, she's spending more than
you would spend as a family to go through the
movies and then.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Never get home with a beer milk kick it feed off,
you know. Okay, let's give her the past because she
didn't know.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
When we explained it to her, she was genuinely devastated,
like she didn't understand that that was a thing stealing
from you.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Well, I guess it's not right. It's like a loan stealing.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I've only ever stolen one thing, but it really stuck
with me. When I was a kid, we just like
lived in this really healthy family. And I say that
because my dad had a heart attack when he was
in his late thirties, very young, and that just like
changed the way we could consume food. I really wanted
all the kids at school remember when that pink cubb
of Babba came into fashion and it was like a
(21:13):
meter long and you'd pull it out and like rip
it off. I remember we're going through a Target and
they were at the youn throw a chocolate in it
the checkout and I begged my mom for it and
she said no, and so I just pocketed it, just
took it. And then we were walking out, slipped a
little bit in my mouth and I was like, I
just won't chew. When she seen me, but she could
smell it anyway. She made me pull it out of
my pocket, made me admit to stealing it, marched me back.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
And in front of everybody at the checkout.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
I had to pull it out, put it on the
counter and say, sorry, excuse me, I just stole this.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I had to tell everyone that I stole it, and
oh my god, but it worked.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Man, I was so embarrassed to tell people that I
stole something that I never stole anything.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Again, We've got Kate on the line, Kate, what did
your kids steal?
Speaker 4 (21:56):
You know, in Seed they have all these kind of
kids toys at their reach. She really wanted this hard
sausage dog, one of those ones that you squeeze and
the little poop comes out of its bottom with a balloon. Anyway,
she was pretty content with that, and we walked out
and she started to walk really funny. I let it go.
I asked if, like maybe she'd poot her pants or something,
(22:18):
and then when we got home, I realized it was
a sausage dog. Do you know what it is?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
It's when they act or innocent when you say sorry,
you can't have that, They don't put up a fight
and they just go okay, mommy, And you're like, why
was that so easy?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I'm sorry, check their pants.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
I'm little stuck on the fact that you can buy
a kid's toy, wear a dog poos.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
They're popular.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Actually, one of my one of my girls my other job,
has one sitting on a desk, So I think Adams
liked them too.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, it's just like maybe a sensory toy. But it
was a brown sausage dog like. I thought it was
really cute. But not seeing dollars in ninety.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Five no terrible. Thanks Kay, thanks for the call.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
There is fine now.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Earlier in the week, if you guys were listening to
the show, we were talking about new parenting trend, new
parenting name. It's called FAFO parenting, which means f around
and find out, have a little listen to this.
Speaker 7 (23:08):
FAFO parenting, which stands for her ground and find out.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Parenting is the act of having.
Speaker 7 (23:13):
Your kids experience the natural consequences of their actions without
getting too involved.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Now, I wasn't really sure on this parenting style. I mean, like,
I get I love it. Let you kip be cold,
They'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
So I never expected that this would happen in real
time in our household. And I say this because Molly
May she's six, she's in kindergarten, she's my oldest and
we have some rules when it comes to dinner time
in our household, right, Like, you gotta sit at the table,
you gotta eat your dinner.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
And that's because strict run.
Speaker 8 (23:44):
You run a regime there, Laura, you laugh Okay, it's
really hard to get a six year old and a
four year old to sit at the table and eat
their dinner and not be distracted.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
She gets down off her chair, She's like, gotta go
and Pooh, gotta go and do this. Like it's of
course they can go to the toilet that they need to,
but it's usually just uses in this distraction, right, But honestly, I'll.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Turn my back for two seconds.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
They've gone and got pins of coloring book, They've gone
to put the TV on, like they just don't listen
to me when it comes to dinner time. And I'm
so sick of sitting at a table with them and
hand feeding a six year old so that she'll eat
a dinner.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
You know, I mean, you can do this. You don't
need to your food in anyway.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Last night, I reckon. I felt like such a broken record.
I'd said like ten times I, get in your seat,
eat your dinner. I was also trying to prep out
dinner at the same time. Anyway, it would have been
like two minutes since I just said, can you get
your seat and eat your dinner? And I turn around
and Marley and Lola have both gotten a text and
they've drawn on their faces. So Malie has drawn around
(24:45):
both eyes, and she's drawn like a clown mouth around
her mouth. Lola has just colored in her eyelids, so
she's got blue texture and her eyelids, and.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
They both look like, you know, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
They looked very funny, and we all had a little giggle.
And and then I looked at the text that they'd used.
Oh no, and they'd both threw on on their.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Face with.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
So stuff.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
It does not come off. So they left around and
they found out is what turns out.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
So Morley thought it was all really funny until I
explained to her that I didn't think it was going
to come off very easily. And she was like, get
me a baby wipe. So I got her baby white
with that down, tried to get some of it off.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I just want to show you.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Oh no, I mean, I can to be fair. We
got a lot of it off that this is how
my child went to school today.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
She has a little hav a marker like a clown
smile around it.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Oh my god, I can't lie, we can't.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
We honestly scrubbed into the poor thing was like red raw,
and she wanted to keep totally.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
She wanted to keep going.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
She was like, get it off, Mummy, get it off.
I look and I was like, sweet, how we can't.
We cannot get any more of this off.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
But this is a prime example of let them figure
it out. She's never doing that again.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
I know maybe she'll actually eat a dinner for a change,
but no. She she was like, please don't make me
go to school.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
And I'm like, well, you're not sick.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
You can't miss school just because you've got I'd be
making it because you look like a cloud.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Okay, I'd been making up a story like she's got
a side gig. She's a clown on the weekends. She's
a personal entertainment.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Today and she's like, oh, sorry, is from my job
on the weekd she entertains the kid's parties.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
We rend her out if you want Molly made to
come to your kids party, she's dressed as a clown. Anyway,
I am going home to figure out how today has
gone for her, and we will soon find out. Hopefully
someone at school had a better idea as to get
the mock.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Producer. Grace was telling her suffing that she did when
she was a kid. I didn't quite get it? What
did you do to your hair?
Speaker 6 (26:36):
Okay, so I did something similar to Marley May, but
I was six. I was seventeen and for some reason,
I was doing the forty Hour Famine and I decided
that instead of eating, I would spray paint my hand gold,
but with just like regular house spray paint, and it
did not come off for four days. I was at
school doing a speech for my HSC with a gold hand.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
It's Michael Jackson showing me did you moon walk off
the stage?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
As well? It's legal? Why did you? You're an embarrassment
everyone I know. Do you know what doesn't make sense
in this story? The forty old them and has nothing
to do with this.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
That was just me setting the scene. I like to
think it's because I was so hungry. I wasn't thinking properly.
I reckon it wasn't that.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
But anyways, cover it has been a long term since
you have been online dating.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
I know I've been off for three years, but I
was on for ten.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
You did hit them hard back in the day. I
feel like, yes, I had every dating app. Sure, well,
I don't know, like, I'm sorry, is this a Britney roast?
Speaker 4 (27:47):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
My question is is were you using online dating at
the time when the prompts came in?
Speaker 4 (27:52):
You know?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Like how yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Now, now it's like because back in when I was
online dating, this is a long time ago. Now it
was just swipe swipe swipes, picture a fishing picture. Yeah,
it was just men holding fish. And now at least
those men have to explain the fish.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I've been through all the updates, I've been through the
paid subscriptions, I've done it all.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
But I was I was deep in the prompts. I
hated the prompts.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Okay, what were some of the prompts that you had
to fill out? Because you can choose them as well,
can't you.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah, so it comes up with like there might be
like fifty or sixty different prompts, for example, but you
have to just pick like four or five. Some of
the apps actually make you pick a minimum of three.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Or you can't even have an app. You can't. You
can't have a profile now without at least a couple
of prompts. But it's like that though, so at least
you've got to show a bit of your personality.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
It's like we would get along if and then you
got to fill it out I crea we're the same
type of crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
If you're both on medication on the weekends.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
You'll find me asleep next to you in bed. Hell.
But that's that's that's what I was just saying. Okay, right,
did you you did? The reason why I'm bringing this
up because.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
So Esa Perel, she's a relationship expert like we adore her.
We've had her on our podcast Life on cut podcast.
She is it's truly amazing. So she's teening up with
Hinge and she's done a whole lot of new prompts.
Some of them I'm like, yes, I get it, I
love it. Ah, you know, tell me more about yourself
and other ones. I'm just not sure whether I would
find it really cringey if someone was answering these things
before I met them.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
You couldn't online date now, don't ever split up with
Matt because it's a you just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
You would drown. Okay, hear me.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Look, I don't trust me. I have to go on
a reality TV show to find my husband's the first place.
I don't trust my tasting men apart from him. All Right, Okay,
here are some of the prompts that are supposed to
inspire more surprise, curiosity, and playfulness between people. Oh hit me,
okay number one in my friend group, I am the
one who goes home first.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Okay, something my pet thinks about me. I'm a legend.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Okah, Dela's got great taste. It's not a vacation unless.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
We're not at work.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
An award my family would give me procrastinator. I could
stay up all night talking about Taylor Swift. Where I
go when I want to feel a little bit more
like myself.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
All right, look, guys, I would love to know. Send
them on into us.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You can go to our socials to pick up and
send it because I would love to know.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
What do you answer to these prompts? How do you
describe yourself?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Also, if you've ever come across anything just ridiculously cringe,
send them to us as well.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I feel like there's more to this. You answer this
one before you go. All right, let's go. Let's do it.
You'd never know it, but I can pick things up
with my feet.
Speaker 5 (30:37):
Everyone knows that should put it all on social media.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
We are talking about your worst first date stories because
we love a good week first date hate. We've had
a few between us But the reason why we're talking
about this is because the other day I was scrolling Instagram.
I was watching stories and Michelle Bridges, who we love,
We adore Michelle. We had her on our podcast Life
on Cut not so long ago, and she was talking
about men, but she was also talking about getting back
(31:02):
into the dating world and whether she was gonna do
it or not do it. Anyway, turns out she did it.
She did it and it didn't go so well, so
she got back into the dating world. And this is
what she said on her on her stories that she
rocked up for her very first date after five years,
I know five years in five years her first date
and the man was a complete no show.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
She got totally ghosted and stood up. Makes me so angry.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, I know, it really does, because, like it's so
easy just to send a text saying you're not going,
and for a woman who gets stood up, it's so
much effort. Do your hair, do you make up, like,
pick out your clothes. You don't just get dressed and
rock up like it's preparation.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
But bless her.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
She said that there was this other younger guy in
the like the bar or restaurant that she was at
that saw her by herself and ended up talking.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
To her for hours, like spending hours with her.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
So she actually ended up meeting someone from it, not
someone to date, but like she's like, there was this
guy that sort of made up.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah, she had a nice night.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Well, you know what if you're out there and you're
going through the of dating, we know it's a cesspool
because we did it ourselves, so.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
We thought we would Firstly, if.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
You've got a horror dating story, we want to hear it,
give us a call.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
But also, Britt, you have some doicies.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
In your No, mine's mine's at a proper spectrum. Mind's
a spectrum of things I can't repeat on the three
PM show.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I know some of them are yeah, real bad, they're
too bad.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
But like you know, I've written book about it, but
you can go and read that if you like.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
But I just remember, like they range. I remember this
one guy picked me up for a date.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
And you know, you put in effort as a woman,
You pick what you're gonna wear, You've done your hair, makeup.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
He picked me up and I was walking towards him.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Down my driveway and he looked me up and down
and said.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Are you gonna wear that? That was the first thing
you said. Yeah, so we hooked up. Obviously we went
on the date.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
That was what he said, and I said, yeah, I
was and he was sort of like, oh okay, and
I was like, is that a problem.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
He's like, no, not, but I was like, you're a jerk,
but I will still date you because you and slim,
but also you know that your self esteem and your
boundaries floor when you still go on that date, because
you're like, I might as well.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Still.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
I had this other guy that I don't know if
I'm bless his honesty. I was actually in London when
I was living in London, and he asked me on
this date where I had to go across the city
on the train to a museum, which wasn't my kind
of a date. He was forty five minutes late turn
up to the date. He was so boring, and then
he said then he said, sorry, I've got to go.
I actually have another date lined up.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
You're like, even you can care multiple dates and I
was like I'm sorry. I was like, how are you
my option?
Speaker 3 (33:31):
And you've got more dates to go to and I
was like, good riddance, mate, I'm gonna look at these
dinosaurs on my own.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Well look, I mean, if this one makes anyone feel
any better. I once been on a date with a
guy and he was I thought. I just thought he
was a dream. I matched with him. We had such
good chemistry on text. And then we got to the restaurant.
We're having dinner together and stuff, and we'd had some
good banter and then I asked him a question about
his like dating history, not specifically expecting him to go
into anything of specifics, and he started talking about his
(33:57):
ex and how he'd recently broken up, and then he's
out a crying, and then he said, I don't know
if I'm that over my ex.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
And I was like, well, evidently not, pow, So thanks
for the great night.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
I also had a guy take me to a bar
and he talked for two hours only about tennis.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
And he didn't play tennis. He was just really into tennis.
He spoke continuously about tennis. Did he think you were
a tennis player?
Speaker 5 (34:22):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
I'm not a tennis person. I have not I don't
really understand.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I don't watch it. I'm not really into it. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
He spoke to me relentlessly about tennis, and then he
trying to open mouth kiss me, but came in with
his tongue out, so he's like like a little get,
like a little pointer. He just came at me with
a tongue. It was the weirdest two hours of my life.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Anyway, I did not take him home. Produ's a gray.
So you've you've had a I mean, you've got stood
up at the inquiryum once. Yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
That was four months into the relationship though, so not
quite a first date, okay, but I definitely have a
trove of stories.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Also, one all do. Everyone does. Anyone who's ever dated
anyone has horor stories. I remember I once went on
a d with this guy called Kevin I think his name.
That's the problem there. Yeah, and it was a great date.
Speaker 6 (35:05):
We were sitting in the car afterwards because he dropped
me home and he kind of leant him for a
kiss and then he just goes, he's silly banana, and
I was like, I need to get out of this
car immediately.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Yes, sorry, this very silly banana must split.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
We are talking your worst first date stories, because well,
I mean everyone here has a real doozy, but everybody,
if you're dating.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Everyone has terrible dating stories.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
The only thing that's never happened to me, to be honest,
is being stood up.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
But half the dates I was on I wish they
stood me up.
Speaker 5 (35:39):
I was like, why did you come?
Speaker 3 (35:41):
I was like why.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I feel like you have some that you can't tell
online radio because they're so bad.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
They're also just a bit X rated. Maybe, Oh, do
you know what I can just have embarrassing once.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
I'll tell you one thing, because I know we got
the calls going off here. But one I remember I
went on this date with this guy and he must
have said it was like he must have thought was
a flex. And I remember at dinner and he was like, so,
just so you know, I've been with.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Four hundred people. Oh, I've dated that guy as well.
And I was like, I think I was one of
the four hundred.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I absolutely went on a date with a guy who
was like, uh, I've slipped this many people, and it
was like the first thing he said, I was.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Like, nothing to turn me off quicker, but it doesn't
bother me. The number doesn't bother me. It was the flex.
It was the weirdness that he felt the need to
tell me.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Do you think it said that they're like trying to
say it's like their experience.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I don't know what they're thinking.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
To be honest, Tool, Well, it's not going to be
four hundred and one, buddy.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I'm going to show you, all right. I've got Emma
on the line. Emma, or it was your horror first
date story?
Speaker 4 (36:35):
My first date story is I had a guy take
me through Maca's drive through and we got there and
he didn't even ask why I wanted. He just ordered
me a bunch of yellow tulips and as we drove
on through, they handed them through the drive through windows.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Oh my god. So he'd pre planned this, he'd organized
I sort of thing. That's cute.
Speaker 5 (36:56):
No aware, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
It's weird because the first day, but he planned. He
liked you and Emma, were you just like? All I
wanted was a burger?
Speaker 3 (37:09):
God?
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Well, they told me we were going somewhere nice. So
when we started going through the drive so I was thinking,
hang on.
Speaker 9 (37:17):
A sweet he did.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
He totally did, and you know what, we're married now.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Did you look?
Speaker 6 (37:25):
God?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
But you walked it down.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
We love it.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Thank you. That's very cute.
Speaker 4 (37:30):
Rachel.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
What was your horror first date story.
Speaker 9 (37:34):
Yeah, guy picked me up for a first date and
I didn't realize because it was dark, but he had
a taxidermy pig trotter gearstick.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
In his car, so disgusting.
Speaker 5 (37:45):
What did you ask?
Speaker 9 (37:47):
I didn't notice it at first because it was dark,
and then as we were getting out of the car
when the lights came on, I saw this hairy thing
in between us, and yeah, he said that he hunted
this pig and had but trotter made into a gear stick.
Speaker 5 (38:02):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Do you know what though?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
I feel like all of this stuff is. It's like
a self fulfilling prophecy. You're like, oh, this date was terrible,
and now I also know why you're single. So this
has worked out great for both of us. And maybe
you should have said, look, it.
Speaker 9 (38:16):
Was one of many, and now I'm a single mum
by choice, so oh good for you. Rachel, Dad, non
save child. I gave up on men after that.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
Fair I would too, Rachel, I get it. I get it.
You can blame the pig trotter guy. That's it's all
his fault, you know.
Speaker 9 (38:33):
And he wanted me to touch it as well, if
any wanted to touch it.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
I want to know what he wanted you to to
thank you love, Thanks Rachel.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Do you know what, though, it's really kind of there's
something really unifying about it because we've all got the stories.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
What about the woman who we had on our podcast
recently he went on a date with a wizard. She's like, so,
what do you do? He's like, I've always said. She's like, no,
what do you do?
Speaker 1 (38:57):
And he said, no, I'm a wizard, Yeah he said.
He said he was from a long line of wizards
and it was part of his ancestory. Imagine doing your
DNA ancestry.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Dot com finding out you're with it. I love that.
I was to go to Hogwarts.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Hey, well guys, if you.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
Are out there and you're dating your single, we just
thoughts are with you, prayers, praying.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
For you, hang in there. Do you know what it's
time for?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
And I could not be more thrilled because this is
a break that I have been, i would say, for years,
trying to get it to come back and be a
staple of the show.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
And finally Grigerator so dramatic. The boss has heard the
Elite radio that went down the other week and they
were like, yeah, all right, Laura, have you break And
it's time.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
For this.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
Shelter.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
Fine Friday, everyone, it's fun Fact Friday.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Britt.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I'm going to read out a few facts to you,
because you know, every day's school day here at the
pickup and Britt, you're gonna have to try and tell
me if you either know the fact.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Or I don't know because half of these I was like,
these are amazing.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
I love facts, but I love to give them to people.
I'm the person you don't want on your team at trivia.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Same but this is also white. It's nice because then
you can go into your weekend, go to the pub
with your mates and be like, hey, did you know this?
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Like today producer Grace said, did you know that Australia
is whiter than the moon?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Bring that one out when you're having a beer with
your bestie. I like, yesterday Laura learned that it's not,
in fact, pronounced gom.
Speaker 4 (40:16):
What that was?
Speaker 2 (40:18):
That was a fun fact.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
It's gamut in case you've also been reading your whole life. Okay,
all right, Fact number one off the top. Where did
the saying raizor toast come from? I've never heard of
that say raised toast? Oh I thought you said razor toast?
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Like raisin toast delicious, Raise a toast?
Speaker 3 (40:39):
I think that came from a castle in Scotland in
the seventeen hundreds.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
No, Unfortunately, it came from the ancient Romans who used
to drop a piece of toast into their wine for
good health.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
That's why you would literally raise a piece of toast. Okay,
all right? Why does a chef's hat have one hundred pleats?
Didn't know what had one hundred pleats? That could have
been how many points does a chef? Why have one hundred?
Why does the chef's hat have a hundred plate because
they have to do one hundred hours to be trained
in it. Chopping an onion?
Speaker 1 (41:10):
No, no, no, it's meant to represent the one hundred
ways that you can cook an egg. There's one hundred weeks,
and I always thought you just scrambled for or boil.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Sorry, there are three facts in that fact. There you go,
I've got one for you.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
Hit me.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Wow, how the tables have turned out? De ternsive tables?
How many noses does a slug have? It's give me
a true question. None four? Oh good? Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:37):
The actors who voiced Mickey and Mini Mouse, what relationship
did they have on the outside of being cartoons.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
This is a terrible question and a terrible segment. It's
brother and sister. They weren't just colleagues. They were they
were married, they loved each other. There you go, Mickey
mini mouse.
Speaker 5 (41:55):
We're actually in everyone careiking a.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Mini mouse, were in a real life relationship with each other.
Care about love? I don't think anyone cares. Okay, what
do you call the blob of toothpaste on a toothbrush? Toothpaste? No,
when you when the toothpaste comes out? I want to
play this anymore. I think I'm getting dumber. To be honest,
I don't think I've wont one thing.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Okay, this one is really really something you will learn,
because I don't think anyone knows this. The blob of
toothpaste on a toothbrush is called a nerdle.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Why is it not toothpaste? It's still toothpaste. No, it
turns into a nerdle as soon as it's on the bristles.
It's a nerdle. You're literally the worst. Hey, honey, could
you just put a nerdle on? I do the brush
just to go over.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
No, hang on one more, I just Google a fact,
but it's so bad. Did you know you can't see
your ears without a mirror?
Speaker 2 (42:42):
Obviously? Who wrote that face also comes see my butt
without a mirror. It's turn around you've got underneath. I'm
not that flexible belly in the middle. Data
This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hi guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life. I'm cut, I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany, and this is.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Our radio show, The Pickup.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
It is so every day of the week, if you
on you here, we do a radio show called The Pickup.
And this is like the little bundled up Q package
that we drop at the end of the week where
we pick out our highlights or our favorite bits from
the week.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah, we pick out the best bits, all of the
worst stuff just go well. You know, sometimes live radio,
you don't know what's going to happen, but you know
when you get to pick out the buts you like
the best.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
It's definitely comes together and need a package. Put it
that way.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I did take a class on how to deliver a
child in case you go into labor.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
So britt said, the first thing she learned about whether
or not you know what to do if someone goes
into labor is to give them a stretch and sweep.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
And I was like, they're crowning. There's a crowning. You
gotta get in there.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
And I just really wanted to point out the length
of your nails is not conducive for you to check
if I'm crowning or not doesn't bother me.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
It doesn't do anything to me.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
If you're delivering a child, that's the leasta You're worries
if you could deliver it in child and I'm the
one delivered it.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Having a baby in the studio. Please don't finger me.
Just let me go, Just leave me be.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I wouldn't even call an ambulance. But pretty no, because
the story's too good for me to have delivered it.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Like you need the content, we'd have to I'd get.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
The cameras on, We'd have to get the content. Do
you know why we actually haven't spoken about this.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I'm sure we'll go into more depths soon, but I'm
working up until the day that I'm being induced, basically,
so I could be induced or I could have a baby,
and we just don't know why did this cause? So
BRIT's getting prepped anyway, Look, we have a few things
to talk about in the show. I very poorly pronounced
a word. There is no word in the English language
that's called goodmo. We won't tell you what the word
(01:43):
actually is, but on radio this week I said goodmud.
I think I can figure it, out said, and I
tell it, and I.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Said, it's so confidently as well, Okay, I said, I
just said, good mood. That's just not a word.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
And also something that happened was this week Molly May
did something and she's learned the hard way that there
are consequences in life and you should listen to your mother.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
You do have to learn. So I hope she never
does it again.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Hey, that on the podcast if you listened last week,
we were talking about first date stories, but like not
good ones.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Obviously no one cares about those horror first date stories.
So many ones and like we've Laura and I have
lived through it. We've done it, we did our time.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
I have brought you so many rogue stories over the years,
but I just don't have them anymore because unfortunately, I'm
in a healthy, safe relationship.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
It's lovely.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Can I just say that we did literally one call out,
like one call out on socials and hilarious, hundreds hundreds
of so funny.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
And I actually thought that we'd had some bad dates
in the past, but you guys have trumped us. So
we decided to bring it over to radio and do
some call outs as well.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
And we've got some real bangers. Anyway, let's get into it. Oh,
happy Monday.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I'm actually I shouldn't say actually, I'm so happy.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
To be here. You've lost the plot.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
But I'm often happy to be here, but I'm particularly
happy to be here today.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Do you know what today is?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
You know how every day has like an international day?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
It's Monday because you often forget.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
No, every day has like an international day or something
like International pie day.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Talk like a pirate day? Yeah, tes, today, can I
tell you a joke quickly? Off today? Just quickly while
we're sitting in it. Why are pirates pirates? I don't know, Brittany,
because they are. You can use that. It's not copyrighted.
What is today, Laura?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Today is International Lazy Day. So if you've been feeling
particularly lazy today.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
We were actually going home. It's been a great show. Hey, everyone,
Tomorrow could have been whoa? I think, mate, Sorry, I
just look at you something that toes out of it.
Laura acts like whoa, what happened?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
But she's like this, Sorry, I'm so lazy. I just
pulled my headphones out. I've decided to finish.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, well, we'll see you tomorrow. It was it was a
nice show, will be up in an hour. No, they're
even lazier doing it.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Okay, we're on the hunt, everyone, We're on the hunt
to try and find the best song of all time.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
And then I've been crying in the break. It's a
big endeavor to undertake. Like, No, it's not because we're
stressed about it.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I am.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
I'm really stressed.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
I feel like giving somebody that title is a huge
responsibility that I don't know if I'm prepared for.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I deeply agree.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
But also we were just touching on some of the
songs that were rule nostalgia.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Songs for us while.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
From the Windows to the Wall. No, do you guys
remember the song Butterfly Kisses. It's so sad. I mean,
it's written by God. I think he was a one
hit wonder. Bob Carlisle was his name. But that song,
every time I hear it, I am in tears. Although
it's not my number one song of all time.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Well, okay, I just I did feel a lot of stress.
The pendulum was swinging between Hoody and the Blowfish and
Kat Stevens. I was an old soul when I was younger,
and I do love that music, but I somehow found
myself gravitating towards Aerosmith.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Don't want to miss a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
I do what a banger?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
I can't like the emotions going my heart's palpitating. I'm like,
I'm feeling the emotion in his voice.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Okay, So my song that I put forward as the
best song of all time is definitely debatable, and I
think a lot of people would disagree.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
But it brings me a.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Lot of joy, brings me a lot of passion, hits
me out on a dance floor.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
DJ Grace and it's TLC no scrubs?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Does that not just transport you back to your hands party?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Brit When everyone was up on the boat trying to
do a crump, it's trying.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Sorry, we crow, I was heavily pregnant, trying to try
to what does at work?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
It doesn't work. I don't know the tuesis terminology.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I've just also had a realization Nelly was pretty good
to Nelly's songs too.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
But we're not going there. Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
My next song is I think that.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
It's hard to overlook this one.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
You will feel the same, Laura, because it was a
song at your wedding.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
But I think it's at everyone's wedding. This is when Houston. Yeah,
it was my first dance song Race by Shark or.
Speaker 7 (06:08):
Some fun.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's hard not to. I would go so far as
to say, if you were at a wedding and that
song came on and you didn't get up your sociopath,
it is impossible. I would agree. Do you know what's
the most devastating part?
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Every time I hear that song, I'm just reminded about
the fact that I don't have a video of my
first dance from my wedding because the cameraman stood in
front of his own camera. Yeah, I have a video
of a cameraman's back from my wedding.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
That's truly devastating.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I haven't posted my whole wedding dance yet because I
still think of you and I don't.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Want to rub in your face. But mind you, I
might actually post it this week.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
All right, I have one more, and I think everyone
it's also an iconic wedding song. But the reason why
I'm putting this one forward is because we call it
our family song, and so we sing it to the
girls and they love it and they sing it to us,
and it's just it's a real sentimental piece for us,
it is I Love You Always Forever.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh the best songs of all time. It's a tricky
title to try and pin down.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I feel like we like to put a label on
everything for it, especially relationships. Labels got them for everything.
Also parenting styles. There's even that parenting style show that's
on at the moment. I forgot what it's called.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's I'm sure you've recommended that show. It's got a
Lie Langdon in it.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
But like they use different parenting styles, like you know,
the tech parenting or the gentle parenting.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Is it parental guide? That's it?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Thank god for producer Grace who actually knows things.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
On this show. Thank god.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
All right, But there's a new type of parenting style
that's been spoken about recently.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
It's called FAFO parenting. Fa FO like fIF flying flying
when you.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Tap in DA you just fly out and come back.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
No, what it stands for is f around and find
out parenting. So it came from Kylie Kelsey, who is
Travis Kelsey's sister in law, and she was talking about
it on her podcast, and I guess that that's what's
or into mainstream attention. But there's a lot of experts
who have some strong opinions about this have listened to this.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
FAFO parenting, which stands for ground and find out parenting
is the act of having your kids experience the natural
consequences of their actions without getting too involved.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
So an example of this right, a really casual version
of FAFO parenting might be if your kids having attantionments,
they don't want to put a jumper on, but you
know that it's a blizzard outside, and you go, fine,
don't worry a jumper, go outside and figure it out
for yourself. And then you go outside, you don't have
a jumper. They don't have a jumper. You don't give
them your jumper because you didn't prepare, and.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
They freeze to death and their hypothermia, and it's.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Like, you know what, if you're not going to pay
attention to me and the things I tell you, I'm
not gonna help you.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
It depends on what the extreme is. I don't have kids,
I'm not a parent. I can still have an opinion.
My opinion is I think that's absolutely fine.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think we I think we we cottle children too much.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Like if there are no consequences, people don't learn anything
kids or adults, you have to have consequences, and like
this is how you learn anything in life.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Every action has a reaction, Britt, I just honestly thought
you were gonna say the opposite. So you really threw me,
did you. Oh no, my kid, good luck to them.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
That's not There's got to be levels to this, right,
Like I mean, okay, you're at a red traffic light.
Stop at a red traffic light. If my kid's just
gonna run across a road, I'm not gonna be like
ever round of fun. Like there's got to be rules
that you implement and you enforce with your kids to
keep them safe. Like our primary job as parents is
to keep your children safe.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And so if you're not doing that.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Because your kid put up too much of an argument
and you can't be bothered to like pick your battles with.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Them, I don't know. I think it's just lazy ass parenting.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I think it's pretty obvious that people is trying to
keep the kids safe. No one's gonna let them run
out in traffic and see what happens. Like that's not
what we're talking about. I think it's more just about
like what you said, like if you don't put a jumper,
go outside fun, you'll be cold. They'll come back in
in ten minutes because they're cold. But you gotta let
them work it out. Yeah, but sometimes I'm like, okay, cool.
If I'm gonna have that fight with my kid like
that don't want.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
To pack a drink bottle or that don't want to pack.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
A jumper, and they're five and I know that they're
going to be freezing, I'm going to pack the drink
bottle and the jumper, because even if I don't want
to pick the battle to get out of the house,
I don't want to have the battle.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
For the rest of the day.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I don't want to then deal with the next three
hours of my kid complaining because they forgot the thing
that I told them.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I feel like, to be fair, your kid is thirsty,
you will give it water.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Let's not all Laura say.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I think the difference is, yes, you will pack the
drink bottle, Laura, but you let them, for that moment,
feel what it would feel like if Oh my god,
I wish I had my drink bottle. I can't believe
I brought that. You're not gonna make them thirsty, but
they have to have that moment of like, oh I
get it, I get my mum wanted me to bring
that now consequence, that's the lesson loaned. Yeah, because I
think that if we're not letting our kids understand that, like,
(10:44):
not everything is easy, not everything's given to you. Actions,
you know, have repercussions and all of this kind of stuff,
how are you supposed to lean?
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I mean, like, I do agree to some extent, but
I think that there is probably kind of ways then,
like the extremism of like ef around found out, like.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Their kids they're learning.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Of course, they're going to push boundaries, and I still
think that as parents it's our responsibility to guide them
in the best way, and that might be sometimes having
an argument about like doing what's the best thing from
the get go. And I don't get me wrong, I
do think pick your battles. Like my kid walks out
of the house with Earmaster two to two and a
swimmer over the top, like she wears whatever the hell
she wants.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I don't care about that battle.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
But I think with some things, I'm like, I'd rather
just do it the safer way than worrying about them
making their own decisions and figuring out consequences that could
adversely affect them.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'll send my kids to your house. That's what I
We have to address the elephant in the room. There
is no elephant.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Tell everyone, no one would know if you weren't going
to say it, well, produce a Grace said, I have
to say it. We're just having a conversation evidently before
we were on air and Laura was telling like a
really serious story.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Just repeat the sentence you just said, just as you
said it. Please, please, I said.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
The full gamud, the full and Grace and I look
at each other and were like, sorry, what And you
were like, it's, you know, like the full gamut.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And Grace is like, do you mean gammut? And You're like, no,
gomot no. The second I came.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Out of my mouth, I was like, I really took
a punch, and I don't think you're paid off like
a fifty to fifty chair. I've read the words so
many times, but never in my life have I had
to put Gammett in a set.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
But she didn't admit to fee straight away. Grace did
have to do.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
That Google voice translator where he says.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It out loud. No, that's because everyone wasn't quite sure.
I think I said it with such confidence that everyone
else in the room was like, Grace, is that how
it said?
Speaker 9 (12:36):
Chrace?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Were you sure? Full gammut?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Look, she did say it very confidently, and I said,
maybe I've been saying it wrong.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
She did say so confidently that we both questioned our selves.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
But I'm glad we stuck by it. Anyway.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
If you were in the full gamut of today's show,
stick around, We've got some pre gross things coming up.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I'm almost forty years old, and it is amazing that
there's still words that to this day I've only read
in a sentence, I've never said out loud, and then
you say them correctly.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I'm so glad that we have a national radio show
to share them on. Do you know what I said?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
One say investigative, investigative journalist.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
How about you say it first? Say it investigative. It's
a typical word. You say it, Grace, investigative.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
See, it's a bit hard, it's a tricky word, but
it's it's always a real what it means. It's a
point of joy whenever brit says it, because it's always
a mistake.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
And I just needed to throw you under a bask
because I'm under it and I wanted to with you
true yourself under it by trying to throw me under it.
It's a really hard word to say, Laura. Picture this.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
You could freeze your body after death, sleep frozen for
two hundred years, and then wake up in the future.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Would you do it? No, really, I really think about that.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I have thought about it. We talked about it earlier.
The answer is no, I don't want it. Firstly, cryogenically
frozen me doesn't want to come back in two hundred
years when all my friends and family are dead.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
What it's no, Okay, listen to this.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
There's this German startup called Tomorrow Bio, and I just
got like down this rabbit hole of this place. They're
charging people two hundred thousand dollars to cryogenically freeze yourself
for this exact purpose, so that in two hundred years,
when the technology is available, you can defrost and be
brought back to the future with the technology to like
(14:23):
help you revive whatever illness might have killed you.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
So like maybe if it was a cancer or something
like that. You can literally pay now to be freezing
now live later.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Yeah, buy now, die now.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Live later.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That should be their model. I think that this is
a scam. I think it is a scam, and a
very lucrative one. They're making two hundred thousand dollars a pop.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Okay, like hear me out. This puts the funnier bit.
It's not that it's funny.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
If you don't have two hundred thousand dollars to freeze
your whole body, you can just pay eighty thousand and
just do your brain.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
But like, where's your brain coming back?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
How?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
What's what? You're gonna wake up and just be a
little brain? They can't do anything for me? Out why
I think this is a scam.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
This just to me reeks of do you guys remember
the Thernos story the woman who like brought out it
was like a blood test, they could detect cancer. She's
ended up in with homes, she's in scams, she's in
prison for it. And it was like a company was
worth billions of dollars. It's one thing to say we're
going to cryogenically freeze you. Is that in two hundred years,
when the technology is there, we can bring you back
to life. Is the same company developing the technology, Like,
(15:23):
how do we know the technology has never been there?
It's still not there one hundred years ago or fifty
years ago, whatever it was. Everyone was saying, oh, we'll
be there in two hundred. We're never going to be there.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
I saw of get it, though, because what they're saying
is they're not saying, I guess if you're going to die,
you have two options.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Right, you die and you never get brought back, or you.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Die freeze yourself and potentially have an option of coming back.
So I guess there are the people that are like, hey,
I get it's not a guarantee, but cool, maybe I
can come.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Back in two hundred years.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Maybe it makes more sense if you were like in
your thirties or your twenties, or your thirties or your forties, right,
because you didn't get to live your full life like
you if you were, if there was a possibility that
you're going to die young, you might then explore it.
But if you're eighty, like who wants to come back
as an eighty year old?
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Be like, oh, I have years left in my lab,
let's go.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
So far, the company has preserved six people and five
pets and they're a.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And there are six hundred and.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Fifty people who have already paid, Like, because you obviously
pay before you die. The rules are you don't get
put to sleep. It's not like an euthanasia thing. It's
you have to pre book it, wait till you die,
and then it has to be done really quickly after
you pass away. But six hundred and fifty people have
paid and are waiting their turn.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I wonder if that's like a family because like you
don't want to do on your own. If you're freezing
your pets, it's or freezing someone to come back together.
We'll do the pick up in two hundred year's time
to produce grace. You're saying, you've got some stats graces.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
On the case. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
So there was a big thing about cryogenically frozen people
back in the sixties, but every single person that was
frozen back then, none of them are still frozen because
you have to rely on their family members.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
To keep paying to keep them cold, to keep them cold.
So what it was like forty years and they're like,
we're done.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Yeah, it is to one person that was cryogenically frozen
before nineteen seventy three, that's still frozen.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Do you imagine growing up and you're a kid and
it's like, hey, these are like your bills you've got
to pay, and also this is to keep your great
great great grandpa frozen.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
In case he comes back to life, Like you're gonna
be like stuff that which is r I am convinced
it's a scam.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
I am so convinced that these companies know that people
are not going to be able to upkeep the payments
for two hundred years because no one's going to do that.
So they're like, well, there's probably only gonna be one
or two people who can afford it, and therefore we're
not going to.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Be who's going to sue us they're dead. Like it's
the perfect model. I think it's gonna happen. I wish
I was around in two hundred years to see Okay.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I asked my Instagram followers personally because I found this
really interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Did some research. Seventy thousand people saw this.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Eight percent of people said that they would do it,
and ninety two percent said no way.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
But eight percent's pretty big. That's a lot of people
that are like, yeah, do that. I'd stick around. I
have no interest. I'm just gonna like do this last
to the fullest and then I'll be done. I'm happy
with that. Well, I'll track down your great great great
great great kids.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Now we're asking in the question, give us a call.
What did your kid steal?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Maybe it was my accident the in they're not going
to get in trouble. Maybe they will. Maybe child's a
kleptomaniac and we want to know about it.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
But let us know the reason why we're asking this
is so my daughter, Marley May, she is six years old,
just six, right, and like kids at that age are
still learning about right and wrong, theft and paying for stuff.
They're firstly they're learning about money. They're learning about like
the inherent value of money. That's still kind of a
(18:39):
tricky age, lack of the inherent value of money. They're
also learning to push boundaries. Now, Marli made a mistake,
and it turned out that actually maybe it was partly
our mistake, you know how like you have your apps
and what not linked to your phone and to your
credit card and everything else, and like sometimes these payments
are automated, you know, like you've got your Amazon Prime
(19:00):
automated payments, You've got your Disney Channel automated payments and
it just comes through what she bought.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
So she's cot shopping spree. She's bought Bentley.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
So we never use like I rarely have we like
logged on and used that Amazon Prime recently. Mally doesn't
watch a lot of TV, and she definitely doesn't watch
TV on supervised.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Like what we do is we're going and we put
a movie on. That's the movie. She watches it, and.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Then when the movie ends, I usually know it's ended
because like I can hear her trying to flick around
and listen to like something girls or watch something girls. Right,
And it was only that Matt he changed some settings
on his phone recently, my husband Matt, and the movie
had finished that she was watching, and then he got
this ping notification and it pined to his phone and
it was like your thirty dollars purchase from Amazon Prime
(19:43):
has just gone through. So Marley had just sat there
using the clicker and she'd scrolled through and she'd just purchased.
There's a new movie on which is called How to
Tame Your Dragon, which firstly we'd said she can't watch
because it's too scary.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
She just went on to Amazon and she bought it
for thirty dollars. I wonder how many things she's bought.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
Thing, So we went the thing is, though she's been buying.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Movies and has never watched them because she doesn't get
to She had no concept that she was actually purchasing
these things. So when we went back through the Amazon
Prime account, she's done.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It low at the time.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Interesting to see she just bought exactly she's bought like
her taste in film.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's like kid, it's all kids, it's all like, none
of it.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
I mean, thank god, she hasn't discovered roadblocks or anything
like that. But she's been buying like movies, but they're
so expensive because they're.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Still out at the movies.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Oh my god, in real time, she's spending more than
you would spend as a family to go through the
movies and then.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Never get home with a beer milk kick it feed off,
you know. Okay, let's give her the past because she
didn't know.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
When we explained it to her, she was genuinely devastated,
like she didn't understand that that was a thing stealing
from you.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Well, I guess it's not right. It's like a loan stealing.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I've only ever stolen one thing, but it really stuck
with me. When I was a kid, we just like
lived in this really healthy family. And I say that
because my dad had a heart attack when he was
in his late thirties, very young, and that just like
changed the way we could consume food. I really wanted
all the kids at school remember when that pink cubb
of Babba came into fashion and it was like a
(21:13):
meter long and you'd pull it out and like rip
it off. I remember we're going through a Target and
they were at the youn throw a chocolate in it
the checkout and I begged my mom for it and
she said no, and so I just pocketed it, just
took it. And then we were walking out, slipped a
little bit in my mouth and I was like, I
just won't chew. When she seen me, but she could
smell it anyway. She made me pull it out of
my pocket, made me admit to stealing it, marched me back.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
And in front of everybody at the checkout.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
I had to pull it out, put it on the
counter and say, sorry, excuse me, I just stole this.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I had to tell everyone that I stole it, and
oh my god, but it worked.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Man, I was so embarrassed to tell people that I
stole something that I never stole anything.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Again, We've got Kate on the line, Kate, what did
your kids steal?
Speaker 4 (21:56):
You know, in Seed they have all these kind of
kids toys at their reach. She really wanted this hard
sausage dog, one of those ones that you squeeze and
the little poop comes out of its bottom with a balloon. Anyway,
she was pretty content with that, and we walked out
and she started to walk really funny. I let it go.
I asked if, like maybe she'd poot her pants or something,
(22:18):
and then when we got home, I realized it was
a sausage dog. Do you know what it is?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
It's when they act or innocent when you say sorry,
you can't have that, They don't put up a fight
and they just go okay, mommy, And you're like, why
was that so easy?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
I'm sorry, check their pants.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
I'm little stuck on the fact that you can buy
a kid's toy, wear a dog poos.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
They're popular.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Actually, one of my one of my girls my other job,
has one sitting on a desk, So I think Adams
liked them too.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, it's just like maybe a sensory toy. But it
was a brown sausage dog like. I thought it was
really cute. But not seeing dollars in ninety.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Five no terrible. Thanks Kay, thanks for the call.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
There is fine now.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Earlier in the week, if you guys were listening to
the show, we were talking about new parenting trend, new
parenting name. It's called FAFO parenting, which means f around
and find out, have a little listen to this.
Speaker 7 (23:08):
FAFO parenting, which stands for her ground and find out.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Parenting is the act of having.
Speaker 7 (23:13):
Your kids experience the natural consequences of their actions without
getting too involved.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Now, I wasn't really sure on this parenting style. I mean, like,
I get I love it. Let you kip be cold,
They'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
So I never expected that this would happen in real
time in our household. And I say this because Molly
May she's six, she's in kindergarten, she's my oldest and
we have some rules when it comes to dinner time
in our household, right, Like, you gotta sit at the table,
you gotta eat your dinner.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
And that's because strict run.
Speaker 8 (23:44):
You run a regime there, Laura, you laugh Okay, it's
really hard to get a six year old and a
four year old to sit at the table and eat
their dinner and not be distracted.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
She gets down off her chair, She's like, gotta go
and Pooh, gotta go and do this. Like it's of
course they can go to the toilet that they need to,
but it's usually just uses in this distraction, right, But honestly, I'll.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Turn my back for two seconds.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
They've gone and got pins of coloring book, They've gone
to put the TV on, like they just don't listen
to me when it comes to dinner time. And I'm
so sick of sitting at a table with them and
hand feeding a six year old so that she'll eat
a dinner.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
You know, I mean, you can do this. You don't
need to your food in anyway.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Last night, I reckon. I felt like such a broken record.
I'd said like ten times I, get in your seat,
eat your dinner. I was also trying to prep out
dinner at the same time. Anyway, it would have been
like two minutes since I just said, can you get
your seat and eat your dinner? And I turn around
and Marley and Lola have both gotten a text and
they've drawn on their faces. So Malie has drawn around
(24:45):
both eyes, and she's drawn like a clown mouth around
her mouth. Lola has just colored in her eyelids, so
she's got blue texture and her eyelids, and.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
They both look like, you know, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
They looked very funny, and we all had a little giggle.
And and then I looked at the text that they'd used.
Oh no, and they'd both threw on on their.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Face with.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
So stuff.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
It does not come off. So they left around and
they found out is what turns out.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
So Morley thought it was all really funny until I
explained to her that I didn't think it was going
to come off very easily. And she was like, get
me a baby wipe. So I got her baby white
with that down, tried to get some of it off.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I just want to show you.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Oh no, I mean, I can to be fair. We
got a lot of it off that this is how
my child went to school today.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
She has a little hav a marker like a clown
smile around it.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Oh my god, I can't lie, we can't.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
We honestly scrubbed into the poor thing was like red raw,
and she wanted to keep totally.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
She wanted to keep going.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
She was like, get it off, Mummy, get it off.
I look and I was like, sweet, how we can't.
We cannot get any more of this off.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
But this is a prime example of let them figure
it out. She's never doing that again.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
I know maybe she'll actually eat a dinner for a change,
but no. She she was like, please don't make me
go to school.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
And I'm like, well, you're not sick.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
You can't miss school just because you've got I'd be
making it because you look like a cloud.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Okay, I'd been making up a story like she's got
a side gig. She's a clown on the weekends. She's
a personal entertainment.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Today and she's like, oh, sorry, is from my job
on the weekd she entertains the kid's parties.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
We rend her out if you want Molly made to
come to your kids party, she's dressed as a clown. Anyway,
I am going home to figure out how today has
gone for her, and we will soon find out. Hopefully
someone at school had a better idea as to get
the mock.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Producer. Grace was telling her suffing that she did when
she was a kid. I didn't quite get it? What
did you do to your hair?
Speaker 6 (26:36):
Okay, so I did something similar to Marley May, but
I was six. I was seventeen and for some reason,
I was doing the forty Hour Famine and I decided
that instead of eating, I would spray paint my hand gold,
but with just like regular house spray paint, and it
did not come off for four days. I was at
school doing a speech for my HSC with a gold hand.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
It's Michael Jackson showing me did you moon walk off
the stage?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
As well? It's legal? Why did you? You're an embarrassment
everyone I know. Do you know what doesn't make sense
in this story? The forty old them and has nothing
to do with this.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
That was just me setting the scene. I like to
think it's because I was so hungry. I wasn't thinking properly.
I reckon it wasn't that.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
But anyways, cover it has been a long term since
you have been online dating.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
I know I've been off for three years, but I
was on for ten.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
You did hit them hard back in the day. I
feel like, yes, I had every dating app. Sure, well,
I don't know, like, I'm sorry, is this a Britney roast?
Speaker 4 (27:47):
No?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
My question is is were you using online dating at
the time when the prompts came in?
Speaker 4 (27:52):
You know?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Like how yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Now, now it's like because back in when I was
online dating, this is a long time ago. Now it
was just swipe swipe swipes, picture a fishing picture. Yeah,
it was just men holding fish. And now at least
those men have to explain the fish.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I've been through all the updates, I've been through the
paid subscriptions, I've done it all.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
But I was I was deep in the prompts. I
hated the prompts.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Okay, what were some of the prompts that you had
to fill out? Because you can choose them as well,
can't you.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah, so it comes up with like there might be
like fifty or sixty different prompts, for example, but you
have to just pick like four or five. Some of
the apps actually make you pick a minimum of three.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Or you can't even have an app. You can't. You
can't have a profile now without at least a couple
of prompts. But it's like that though, so at least
you've got to show a bit of your personality.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
It's like we would get along if and then you
got to fill it out I crea we're the same
type of crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
If you're both on medication on the weekends.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
You'll find me asleep next to you in bed. Hell.
But that's that's that's what I was just saying. Okay, right,
did you you did? The reason why I'm bringing this
up because.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
So Esa Perel, she's a relationship expert like we adore her.
We've had her on our podcast Life on cut podcast.
She is it's truly amazing. So she's teening up with
Hinge and she's done a whole lot of new prompts.
Some of them I'm like, yes, I get it, I
love it. Ah, you know, tell me more about yourself
and other ones. I'm just not sure whether I would
find it really cringey if someone was answering these things
before I met them.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
You couldn't online date now, don't ever split up with
Matt because it's a you just can't do it.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
You would drown. Okay, hear me.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Look, I don't trust me. I have to go on
a reality TV show to find my husband's the first place.
I don't trust my tasting men apart from him. All Right, Okay,
here are some of the prompts that are supposed to
inspire more surprise, curiosity, and playfulness between people. Oh hit me,
okay number one in my friend group, I am the
one who goes home first.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Okay, something my pet thinks about me. I'm a legend.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Okah, Dela's got great taste. It's not a vacation unless.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
We're not at work.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
An award my family would give me procrastinator. I could
stay up all night talking about Taylor Swift. Where I
go when I want to feel a little bit more
like myself.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
All right, look, guys, I would love to know. Send
them on into us.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You can go to our socials to pick up and
send it because I would love to know.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
What do you answer to these prompts? How do you
describe yourself?
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Also, if you've ever come across anything just ridiculously cringe,
send them to us as well.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I feel like there's more to this. You answer this
one before you go. All right, let's go. Let's do it.
You'd never know it, but I can pick things up
with my feet.
Speaker 5 (30:37):
Everyone knows that should put it all on social media.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
We are talking about your worst first date stories because
we love a good week first date hate. We've had
a few between us But the reason why we're talking
about this is because the other day I was scrolling Instagram.
I was watching stories and Michelle Bridges, who we love,
We adore Michelle. We had her on our podcast Life
on Cut not so long ago, and she was talking
about men, but she was also talking about getting back
(31:02):
into the dating world and whether she was gonna do
it or not do it. Anyway, turns out she did it.
She did it and it didn't go so well, so
she got back into the dating world. And this is
what she said on her on her stories that she
rocked up for her very first date after five years,
I know five years in five years her first date
and the man was a complete no show.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
She got totally ghosted and stood up. Makes me so angry.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, I know, it really does, because, like it's so
easy just to send a text saying you're not going,
and for a woman who gets stood up, it's so
much effort. Do your hair, do you make up, like,
pick out your clothes. You don't just get dressed and
rock up like it's preparation.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
But bless her.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
She said that there was this other younger guy in
the like the bar or restaurant that she was at
that saw her by herself and ended up talking.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
To her for hours, like spending hours with her.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
So she actually ended up meeting someone from it, not
someone to date, but like she's like, there was this
guy that sort of made up.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah, she had a nice night.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Well, you know what if you're out there and you're
going through the of dating, we know it's a cesspool
because we did it ourselves, so.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
We thought we would Firstly, if.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
You've got a horror dating story, we want to hear it,
give us a call.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
But also, Britt, you have some doicies.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
In your No, mine's mine's at a proper spectrum. Mind's
a spectrum of things I can't repeat on the three
PM show.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I know some of them are yeah, real bad, they're
too bad.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
But like you know, I've written book about it, but
you can go and read that if you like.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
But I just remember, like they range. I remember this
one guy picked me up for a date.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
And you know, you put in effort as a woman,
You pick what you're gonna wear, You've done your hair, makeup.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
He picked me up and I was walking towards him.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Down my driveway and he looked me up and down
and said.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Are you gonna wear that? That was the first thing
you said. Yeah, so we hooked up. Obviously we went
on the date.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
That was what he said, and I said, yeah, I
was and he was sort of like, oh okay, and
I was like, is that a problem.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
He's like, no, not, but I was like, you're a jerk,
but I will still date you because you and slim,
but also you know that your self esteem and your
boundaries floor when you still go on that date, because
you're like, I might as well.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Still.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
I had this other guy that I don't know if
I'm bless his honesty. I was actually in London when
I was living in London, and he asked me on
this date where I had to go across the city
on the train to a museum, which wasn't my kind
of a date. He was forty five minutes late turn
up to the date. He was so boring, and then
he said then he said, sorry, I've got to go.
I actually have another date lined up.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
You're like, even you can care multiple dates and I
was like I'm sorry. I was like, how are you
my option?
Speaker 3 (33:31):
And you've got more dates to go to and I
was like, good riddance, mate, I'm gonna look at these
dinosaurs on my own.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Well look, I mean, if this one makes anyone feel
any better. I once been on a date with a
guy and he was I thought. I just thought he
was a dream. I matched with him. We had such
good chemistry on text. And then we got to the restaurant.
We're having dinner together and stuff, and we'd had some
good banter and then I asked him a question about
his like dating history, not specifically expecting him to go
into anything of specifics, and he started talking about his
(33:57):
ex and how he'd recently broken up, and then he's
out a crying, and then he said, I don't know
if I'm that over my ex.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
And I was like, well, evidently not, pow, So thanks
for the great night.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
I also had a guy take me to a bar
and he talked for two hours only about tennis.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
And he didn't play tennis. He was just really into tennis.
He spoke continuously about tennis. Did he think you were
a tennis player?
Speaker 5 (34:22):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
I'm not a tennis person. I have not I don't
really understand.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I don't watch it. I'm not really into it. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
He spoke to me relentlessly about tennis, and then he
trying to open mouth kiss me, but came in with
his tongue out, so he's like like a little get,
like a little pointer. He just came at me with
a tongue. It was the weirdest two hours of my life.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Anyway, I did not take him home. Produ's a gray.
So you've you've had a I mean, you've got stood
up at the inquiryum once. Yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
That was four months into the relationship though, so not
quite a first date, okay, but I definitely have a
trove of stories.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Also, one all do. Everyone does. Anyone who's ever dated
anyone has horor stories. I remember I once went on
a d with this guy called Kevin I think his name.
That's the problem there. Yeah, and it was a great date.
Speaker 6 (35:05):
We were sitting in the car afterwards because he dropped
me home and he kind of leant him for a
kiss and then he just goes, he's silly banana, and
I was like, I need to get out of this
car immediately.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Yes, sorry, this very silly banana must split.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
We are talking your worst first date stories, because well,
I mean everyone here has a real doozy, but everybody,
if you're dating.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Everyone has terrible dating stories.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
The only thing that's never happened to me, to be honest,
is being stood up.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
But half the dates I was on I wish they
stood me up.
Speaker 5 (35:39):
I was like, why did you come?
Speaker 3 (35:41):
I was like why.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
I feel like you have some that you can't tell
online radio because they're so bad.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
They're also just a bit X rated. Maybe, Oh, do
you know what I can just have embarrassing once.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
I'll tell you one thing, because I know we got
the calls going off here. But one I remember I
went on this date with this guy and he must
have said it was like he must have thought was
a flex. And I remember at dinner and he was like, so,
just so you know, I've been with.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Four hundred people. Oh, I've dated that guy as well.
And I was like, I think I was one of
the four hundred.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I absolutely went on a date with a guy who
was like, uh, I've slipped this many people, and it
was like the first thing he said, I was.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Like, nothing to turn me off quicker, but it doesn't
bother me. The number doesn't bother me. It was the flex.
It was the weirdness that he felt the need to
tell me.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Do you think it said that they're like trying to
say it's like their experience.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I don't know what they're thinking.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
To be honest, Tool, Well, it's not going to be
four hundred and one, buddy.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
I'm going to show you, all right. I've got Emma
on the line. Emma, or it was your horror first
date story?
Speaker 4 (36:35):
My first date story is I had a guy take
me through Maca's drive through and we got there and
he didn't even ask why I wanted. He just ordered
me a bunch of yellow tulips and as we drove
on through, they handed them through the drive through windows.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Oh my god. So he'd pre planned this, he'd organized
I sort of thing. That's cute.
Speaker 5 (36:56):
No aware, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
It's weird because the first day, but he planned. He
liked you and Emma, were you just like? All I
wanted was a burger?
Speaker 3 (37:09):
God?
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Well, they told me we were going somewhere nice. So
when we started going through the drive so I was thinking,
hang on.
Speaker 9 (37:17):
A sweet he did.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
He totally did, and you know what, we're married now.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Did you look?
Speaker 6 (37:25):
God?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
But you walked it down.
Speaker 4 (37:26):
We love it.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Thank you. That's very cute.
Speaker 4 (37:30):
Rachel.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
What was your horror first date story.
Speaker 9 (37:34):
Yeah, guy picked me up for a first date and
I didn't realize because it was dark, but he had
a taxidermy pig trotter gearstick.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
In his car, so disgusting.
Speaker 5 (37:45):
What did you ask?
Speaker 9 (37:47):
I didn't notice it at first because it was dark,
and then as we were getting out of the car
when the lights came on, I saw this hairy thing
in between us, and yeah, he said that he hunted
this pig and had but trotter made into a gear stick.
Speaker 5 (38:02):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Do you know what though?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
I feel like all of this stuff is. It's like
a self fulfilling prophecy. You're like, oh, this date was terrible,
and now I also know why you're single. So this
has worked out great for both of us. And maybe
you should have said, look, it.
Speaker 9 (38:16):
Was one of many, and now I'm a single mum
by choice, so oh good for you. Rachel, Dad, non
save child. I gave up on men after that.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
Fair I would too, Rachel, I get it. I get it.
You can blame the pig trotter guy. That's it's all
his fault, you know.
Speaker 9 (38:33):
And he wanted me to touch it as well, if
any wanted to touch it.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
I want to know what he wanted you to to
thank you love, Thanks Rachel.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Do you know what, though, it's really kind of there's
something really unifying about it because we've all got the stories.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
What about the woman who we had on our podcast
recently he went on a date with a wizard. She's like, so,
what do you do? He's like, I've always said. She's like, no,
what do you do?
Speaker 1 (38:57):
And he said, no, I'm a wizard, Yeah he said.
He said he was from a long line of wizards
and it was part of his ancestory. Imagine doing your
DNA ancestry.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Dot com finding out you're with it. I love that.
I was to go to Hogwarts.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Hey, well guys, if you.
Speaker 3 (39:09):

thoughts are with you, prayers, praying.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
For you, hang in there. Do you know what it's
time for?
Speaker 1 (39:16):

a break that I have been, i would say, for years,
trying to get it to come back and be a
staple of the show.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
And finally Grigerator so dramatic. The boss has heard the
Elite radio that went down the other week and they
were like, yeah, all right, Laura, have you break And

Speaker 4 (39:34):

Speaker 5 (39:36):
Shelter.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
Fine Friday, everyone, it's fun Fact Friday.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Britt.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I'm going to read out a few facts to you,
because you know, every day's school day here at the
pickup and Britt, you're gonna have to try and tell
me if you either know the fact.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Or I don't know because half of these I was like,
these are amazing.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
I love facts, but I love to give them to people.
I'm the person you don't want on your team at trivia.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Same but this is also white. It's nice because then
you can go into your weekend, go to the pub
with your mates and be like, hey, did you know this?
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Like today producer Grace said, did you know that Australia
is whiter than the moon?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Bring that one out when you're having a beer with
your bestie. I like, yesterday Laura learned that it's not,
in fact, pronounced gom.
Speaker 4 (40:16):
What that was?
Speaker 2 (40:18):
That was a fun fact.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
It's gamut in case you've also been reading your whole life. Okay,
all right, Fact number one off the top. Where did
the saying raizor toast come from? I've never heard of
that say raised toast? Oh I thought you said razor toast?
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Like raisin toast delicious, Raise a toast?
Speaker 3 (40:39):
I think that came from a castle in Scotland in
the seventeen hundreds.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
No, Unfortunately, it came from the ancient Romans who used
to drop a piece of toast into their wine for
good health.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
That's why you would literally raise a piece of toast. Okay,
all right? Why does a chef's hat have one hundred pleats?
Didn't know what had one hundred pleats? That could have
been how many points does a chef? Why have one hundred?
Why does the chef's hat have a hundred plate because
they have to do one hundred hours to be trained
in it. Chopping an onion?
Speaker 1 (41:10):
No, no, no, it's meant to represent the one hundred
ways that you can cook an egg. There's one hundred weeks,
and I always thought you just scrambled for or boil.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Sorry, there are three facts in that fact. There you go,
I've got one for you.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
Hit me.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Wow, how the tables have turned out? De ternsive tables?
How many noses does a slug have? It's give me
a true question. None four? Oh good? Okay.
Speaker 1 (41:37):
The actors who voiced Mickey and Mini Mouse, what relationship
did they have on the outside of being cartoons.
Speaker 2 (41:46):
This is a terrible question and a terrible segment. It's
brother and sister. They weren't just colleagues. They were they
were married, they loved each other. There you go, Mickey
mini mouse.
Speaker 5 (41:55):
We're actually in everyone careiking a.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Mini mouse, were in a real life relationship with each other.
Care about love? I don't think anyone cares. Okay, what
do you call the blob of toothpaste on a toothbrush? Toothpaste? No,
when you when the toothpaste comes out? I want to
play this anymore. I think I'm getting dumber. To be honest,
I don't think I've wont one thing.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Okay, this one is really really something you will learn,
because I don't think anyone knows this. The blob of
toothpaste on a toothbrush is called a nerdle.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Why is it not toothpaste? It's still toothpaste. No, it
turns into a nerdle as soon as it's on the bristles.
It's a nerdle. You're literally the worst. Hey, honey, could
you just put a nerdle on? I do the brush
just to go over.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
No, hang on one more, I just Google a fact,
but it's so bad. Did you know you can't see
your ears without a mirror?
Speaker 2 (42:42):
Obviously? Who wrote that face also comes see my butt
without a mirror. It's turn around you've got underneath. I'm
not that flexible belly in the middle. Data
