Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hey guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Brittany,
I'm Laura. Wow, she'll be wildly offended.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
It sounds like Marge from The Simpsons a bit.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Okay, So this is some Laura's Hunt and Mattie Jay.
In case you're new to the show.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
People wouldn't even really recognize my voice at the moment
because I've laryngitis.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
No, you lost your voice at the football.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Well laryngiis Isn't that like a form of throat infection?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
But you just yelled too much.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
It's a strain of the vocal cords.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Britt are you no, it's not an infection.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Okay? I've been telling everyone it's laryngitis.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
You yelled your lungs off at the football.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I didn't even yell that much. I literally said go
Broncos twice, and I thought to myself, I'm not going
to push it any more than that.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
My first week on National.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I need to preserve my throat, my vocal cords. And
then I did like phantom yells. I was just mouthing
like fake yells. It was enough to take take me down.
I think it's the fact that we've got a newborn
in the house and the kids are all up all nights.
At the moment, I think I'm probably getting about three
to four hours of sleep per night.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
That's cute, but as my co host, that's also not
my problem. Just give me some simplicy let's set the scene. Yes,
this is life on carp but this is our radio show.
So at the end of the week, we obviously do
radio every day of the week. We package up the
best bits and we put it here for you to
listen to and if you have somehow missed it.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Can I just say, Wow, what a week it was?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Well, hang on, Laura had a baby. That's why you're here.
Let's like, let's set the tone.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
That's what I was talking about. What a week the baby.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But yeah, it was Manny Jay's first week on radio,
So thank you for filling in. You've been wonderful.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
There's nowhere else I'd rather be. It's nice to have
a break from the baby.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
That was touching go for a while. To be honest,
a few.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
People did say, hang on a second, shouldn't you be
on that leave with your with your wife?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
And I'm like, yeah, I was one of those people.
And I also said that.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
I'm doing that in the morning up until lunchtime. I
do it at nighttime and I'm working. I'm paying the bills.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Brittany, Look, not because I didn't want you as a
gir host, but I was one of those people. I
was like, are you sure that you want to come
in and do radio? Like when you've got a one
week or baby, you don't want to be at home.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
But you thought the cause I did it for the people.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
It's what they give the people they want.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
They want to give the people what they want. And
if it means that I'm working around the clock, I'm
burning the cann from both ends. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
As a represent I'm a giver. As a representative of Laura,
what happens when you go home at night? Does she
listen to the show? Is she critiquing it?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Is she She did say, obviously we have on a Sunday,
we have a prep call in the afternoon. And I
don't know if it's just because she was being polite,
but she was kind of prying and saying, what do
you got planned for the week? Which story is you
going to tell? Maybe it's because I just give away
personal information. She's actually genuinely worried about what I'll give away. No,
(02:52):
she was actually driving home with popping in the car.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
And she did say I heard the opener of the
show before she got home, and she said it's sounding
really good. Great. I think she's worried.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
She's probably worried on both ends. Like she's probably worried like, oh,
I want him to do well, but not too well.
I don't want him to out.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Can I just say? The biggest rule in media is
don't be replaced by someone who's better than you.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah, it's also don't be replaced by your husband. I
think that's a pretty big rule too.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I think producer Grace looks a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Think the goal is just not to be replaced for
the falls stop. It doesn't matter if they're but.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
If you're sick. Oh, yes, that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Like if you take, don't let someone better than you
fill in.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Feeling replace Sorry bad choice of words, but yeah, the feeling.
And I don't I don't want to sound arrogant here.
I hate that I maybe cross that line, but fuck,
I'm doing good.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Do you know what I mean, you are I want
to like a serious note there for a second. It
is such hate for that person, but it is a
genuine worry in this industry, like jobs are so few
and far between, there is definitely a scarce any mindset,
especially for women. Like women jobs in entertainment and media
are less. So you have this and it.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Sucks because it's bad for brand if I take a
woman's job behind me, especially.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
When it's your wife, Like it can't be your female
and your why, Like you're asking for trouble. But even Laura,
I'm doing it. You don't even want maternity leave because
I'm surprised. Law it in birth, it in here because
she's like, I need to get my job. But no,
you did well. But hey, this week a lot of
things on the show. But I did come out hot
with some advice. I wanted some advice from Matt. I
wanted the male advice. A friend of mine is like
(04:28):
deep in the dating world. Now, I don't want to
shit on dating. Dating can be wonderful, very important and fun,
and it can be the greatest Like I had the
best time when I was dating, but I also dated
some turd burgers and one of my friends is like
in the trenches at the moment, and something happened to
her where I want your advice on what it might
mean from a man, you know. So that's something big
(04:50):
on the show.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Now we do talk about the birth of Poppy. It
could be remissed me not to mention a little popsicle,
but we had an issue and it's something that I
think unless you being in the delivery suite, it's an
issue that you may not be aware of. So this
is a PSA. Just managing the expectations of soon to
be parents has something to do with the bidwives. Oh
and also coming up a little bit later in the show,
(05:11):
we will talk about Fanny's. How's that for a tease?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I love that? Can't I talk about the Fannies? Stick around?
You're gonna miss We have the wonderful Mattie Jay feeling
for us at the moment. While his wife Laura is
on maternityly welcome Maddie.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
She is currently at home juggling three kids covered in
vomit and milk. So shout out to Laura, who's having
a beautiful time at home right now.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
And you're like, sorry, babe, I have to.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Go to work. I said, you put me up for this.
I had to leave her and she was angry at me.
As I was out the door, I was like, I
didn't want this.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I didn't want this.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
None of us did. None of us said sorry, Laura,
she's listening right now. But Poppy arrived and I think,
I said, Britt, you might know this. Laura was induced. Yeah,
so it was like pre booked.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I went to Italy on I was really hoping that
she would come before I left for my one week
holiday because I wanted to cut the cord.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Cutting the cord is a task that I don't want,
so I'm upset that you weren't there to take that
responsibility off me.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Well, that's why I volunteered myself, because Laura said that
you were not about it, like it was like cutting
HALAMRII you didn't want to do it grossed you out.
So I was going to volunteers tribute.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Next time if the rest one. But the weird thing
about being induced is that most often it happens in
the morning. So we were in the hospital at nine
point thirty to get induced, and we had an amazing midwife,
and with the midwife, we didn't pick her. It was
just you know, she was looking after our room on
that particular day. Chantelle, beautiful midwife, shout out the great energy.
(06:41):
We loved her. We just clicked, we got along, and
then we were with Chantelle for the entire day.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
You really want that connection when someone's like between your legs,
don't you totally like you want that?
Speaker 2 (06:53):
You know it's it's Chantel came to us, and you know,
we were so stoked. And I'm sure all the midwives
are fantastic. Sure there's not like a bad midwife out there.
Although but with Laura, it was taking a long time. Okay,
I don't want to say she was dragging her feet,
but it was. It was one o'clock, it was two o'clock.
(07:13):
We're all waiting. It was then six o'clock and Chantelle
came into the room and she said, hey, guys, I
have to let you know my shift is going to
finish at six o'clock. I'm about to clock off. And
I was like, what do you mean, Chantelle, We've been
here the whole day. Surely the rulers you just have
to see through the end of the pregnancy, like the birth.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Well, no, because if you think about it, some people's
like labors go for twenty four to forty.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Hours, and Chantelle's like, I've got dinner book. She's like,
I can stay till six fifteen, and then I've got.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
To go Italian at seven, right, And then I was.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Looking at Laura and saying, are you close. We'd have
a look at downstairs, and she was only six centimeters dilated,
which for those wondering it's not enough, I now know, okay,
And then good question. I think it was eight I
think apparently Grace, Grace, thank you, Where were you, Grace?
But then we had to wave goodbye to Chantell. We
(08:07):
had a new midwife and she was equally as nice,
but it was just we'd only known each other for
about half an hour before Laura starts pushing, and it
was too soon.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
It is too soon, it's too intimate. And I understand
that it would be upsetting that that person you formed
the connection with for eight hours has left you.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Well, Chantelle didn't even call to check on us after
she left. Sarah the new midwife, who again was lovely,
but I just it was speed ramping through the relationship.
We're shaking hands, saying hi, next minute, she's there, the
baby's in her arms.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, it's just like, oh, date on a Friday night.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
But it all went well. I did cut the umbilical
cord and guess what I got to keep the placenta
the scissors. Oh.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I was like, are you eating the placenter?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
It was offered to me, and I had to politely
say no.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Why, Like was it ever of interest to you because
a lot of people make the placenta now into capsules. Yeah,
and they're like taking them like a vitamin. It's the
most nutrient dense thing on the planet. If they roll
your eyes produce a grace.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
It was tempting, but on this occasion, I just went
for the scissors.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Okay, that's a bit more boring. A lot of other
people who apparently bury it in the yard and stuff
like that. It's like you use it for plants and stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
It helps grow, and that's a beautiful thing if that's
your jam. But once again, for me, I'm into arts
and crafts. I just wanted my hands on those scissors,
and I've got them, and I'll give them to Poppy
when she turns twenty one.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So what are you going to do with them?
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Hold them?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I know both of you they will not last a week,
they will be lost somewhere.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
They're in the cutlery drawer right now. So when the
kids need arts and crafts like saladzi or if anyone
happens to give birth in our house, good news and
belicle God can get cut with those scissors.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Okay, last question, so who actually delivers the baby? The
midwife or did you have like an obstetrician that physically
pulls it out?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Shout out to Bobby the obstetricians. Okay, the ob what's up?
He came in. It all happens really quickly. It's hard to.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Hang on a minute. Go she was dragging her feet.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
No, but then the point like you sneeze and it's over.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh, there's so many women listening to this right now.
You do not sneeze.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Let me just this is going terrible. Let's go, oh
my god. But I've seen something online. This is a
controversial spin on a child playdate, and I want you
to tell me if this is acceptable or not.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Okay, is this like something like I swear this was
my friend and it really was. You wre like I
have a friend.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Look not quite. You're close. You're close. Okay, we all
know that having kids. Something that is very normal is
having playdates. Yeah right, yes, But there's one thing that
this mum, she's from the States, she is doing off
the back end of his playdates, which is getting a
lot of people up in arms. Okay, have a listen
to this.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
So I sat over in my OPENMO request and it
just said, hey, I had a great playdate. I set
you a VENMO for thirty six dollars for food and supplice.
So this other mom said, thanks for the hospitality, but
this is like a price scouging scheme to like make money.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And they called it like a bill.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
While her son was over, I just kept on my
notes tab, a running tab of everything that her son
used during the play date.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
This can't be real.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I actually think price gouging. That's very unfair because thirty
six dollars. Let's just remind people that a babysitter per
hour will charge about thirty six up to forty five dollars.
So I actually think it's a very fair investment.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But what is she charging. Did they go to like
a theme park? What's the money for?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think it's just you know, at home, they're going
to use coloring in paper. There's materials that child would
need to be fed. So it's going to cover things
like food. Food's not cheap, cost a living, breat Okay,
when you answer this, does Delilah your dog go on playdates?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Okay? Does it cost you money?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
I send her food?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
You send food? Okay? Yeah? And if you didn't send
her food, do you think it would be unreasonable if
the person looking after Delilah would say, Hey, I'm going
to charge you thirty dollars because I had to feed
her and also pooh bags and et cetera.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
I don't think we can relate my dog to kids.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You're a pet parent, Bret.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
But what I will say is I remember take, like,
let's cast our minds back to when I was on
a playdate. I'm one of four kids, but my parents,
if I went on a playdate to someone else's house,
they would send me with money for that kind of stuff.
So you'd go with, like, I don't know, it was
ten dollars, fifteen dollars, and that would be your pool entry,
and that would be your food for lunch or whatever
(12:51):
it's like. So it was never expected for the parent
to pay.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
But essentially your mum was doing exactly what this woman wants,
but she was just frontending it. Do you agree no,
because no, you agree that parents out there should be
charging for playdates. Britt Hockley, No, I.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Do not from your mouth, I absolutely do not. I
think that that poor kid's not gonna have any friends.
No one is going to want to go and play
that kid's house. You cannot charge for a piece of
coloring paper. If you're inviting a kid to your house
to have a playdate, then the food is on you.
The chicken nuggets are on you. You're not saying here's
two dollars for a chicken nugget.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I disagree that child will have friends, Maley, Poppy and Lola.
We'll go over that if she's going to have a
playdate and take my kids for a couple of hours
and it's only going to cost me thirty six dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
So I do not believe you are ever going to
send a venmo request to anyone for a playdate. If
any kid comes to your house for a playdate, you
are not ven mooween or it's a quick way to
get cancer.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
No, I use PayPal.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
It's to pick up with Britt, Laura and Maddie Jake.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
She's not here for it. We can't just like it
white her. She's remove her from every bit of marketing
material possible.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Please you watch, Matt's going to photo shop his face
onto every picture of Laura on the pickup.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Give me a log in and I'll do it. I've
been looking tight up in your computer trying to figure
out what the password is.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Hey, you'll probably love this, Matt, because this could be
up your alley for trying to steal Laura's job. Ai.
I want to talk to you about this new actress
that's taking over Hollywood. I don't know if you've seen her.
Her name is Tilly Norwood. I'm going to show you
a photo over.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
She's like super cute girl next door, every girl next door.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Like long, luscious brown hair. Her Instagram is like she's
just having coffees and like doing things with the girls
and yogurt and whatever. And she's just been I believe
it was like can Film Festival. So her manager been
there selling her. Right, She's the next big thing in Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
So do they just walk around with a tablet being
like this is Tilly? How do they sell her?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
This is a problem. So Tilly is not a real actress,
even though she's like quoted to be the next hot thing.
She's AI. So she doesn't exist. And this is getting
a lot of Hollywood off side, because in mad you're
at like the biggest film festival, and all anyone is
talking about is somebody that doesn't exist. And so what
(15:07):
her agency has said is like we all we have Sorry,
we've taken the best of who we think are all
the best actresses to create this one like super actress.
And they've even said, like she's the next Scarlet, You're Hansen.
Now the problem is Scarlet your hands and still exists.
She's just in Jurassic Park. She's a brilliant actress.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Like she said, I'm right here, Goush haven't died because
I'm still book for a movie.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah, but this is the problem. Right, Are we at
the point where we are going to be happy as
a society to sit back and watch a film where
these people don't even exist, They don't have real feelings,
there's no human connection, Like, how are they supposed to
connect with a TV role or a movie role or
the character?
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Okay, hang on if you're talking about connection, Lion King, Okay,
move ussa right, he's a cartoon. Did I cry?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yes, yes, I feel you on that, But.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
We've been crying things that aren't real for our entire lives.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Break ye, But that's an animal, so it's different. So
imagine what is going to happen.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
If et all right when he went back home.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Don't start me on aliens because I believe in that.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
It wasn't real. Okay, I think we're all getting too
worked up over this. Okay, we need to relax.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Do you think there's no problem with it?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Do you know what?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Honestly like literally taking everybody's jobs. It'll take your job.
You've only been here ten minutes. AI is going to
take your job.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I'm backing up Tilly here. She's getting a bad rap.
People are getting worked up over nothing, and.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Do you know what, she doesn't care. She's a robot.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
But I just think forrit I just think that we
shouldn't be defending these millionaire actors over in Hollywood. They're
going to be fine, honestly.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Do you know what, though this is interesting segue, A
lot of Hollywood actors don't make that much money. Like
there's about one percent of who you've seen Hollywood that
make money. There is a reason that you're seeing all
these superstars selling like shampoos and things, it's because they
actually don't make much money. I remember Rebel Wilson. We
did a podcast episode with her, and I remember she
told us that when she did Bridesmaids, remember that movie
(17:06):
that was like huge number one, she lost money on it.
She got paid three thousand dollars and then she had
to pay her fees to like be a part of
the actor memberships and all of that stuff, and she
ended up losing money. I think that this is just.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Sell her apartment for four million dollars or something.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
She's done fine now, But but my point is, and
I'm not protecting Hollywood. I'm absolutely not like there are
people that are filthy rich. But I think that there's
a misconception that every actor there is making bank because
they're really not. And so it's like it's a really
scary thing to think that not only are the writers
been replaced, chatchipt you'll write your script in ten minutes.
(17:45):
So not only the writer's been replaced, producers are being replaced.
Actors have been replaced. Like where's the end? Like, when
is there going to be somebody that says Okay, cool,
we've gone too far, so.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Can you just confirm that we should also we shouldn't
make cartoon is because they're not real and move fast
at the Lion king. Those poor lions right now in Africa.
They're out of work right now because of the cartoons.
They're out of.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Work because they've been poached. Different.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Well, this is a whole news story. It's different.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Okay, so cool, Grace, could you get me a different
co hosts for fulfilling for the rest of Matt had
a one week trial and I think I'm going to
can it?
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Look, I was like, Matt's when you co host, what's
you gonna want to talk about? And I thought Taylor
Swift The Life of a Showgirl, the new album.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I Am Converted. I woke my hand up and say,
back in the day, I would be the person saying,
what's all the fuss about? She's not that amazing? But
do you know who converted me?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Maley Marley, Yeah, you do it.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I would drop her to daycare every morning. We would
listen to the best of Taylor Swift. And now I'm like,
do you know what? She's pretty good?
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Do you want to know what I think is really interesting.
This isn't what I want to talk about, but here
we are. When Taylor like broke onto the scene when
she was like thirteen years old, right, it wasn't cool
to like Taylor Swift, like you were a bit of
a loser, Like she was a bit of a nerd
at the start, and you liked her. It just wasn't cool.
But now it's like the coolest thing in the world
to be a Swifty.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
It's like crocs. Back in the day, they weren't cool.
Look at them now. Taylor's CROs is essentially like crocs.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
She would hate that comparison. But she has just released
The Life of a show Girl, which everyone is obsessing over.
And something unusual for Taylor is she's doing a lot
more interviews. So she's pretty private usually, like she puts
her instas out, but she doesn't give a lot. But
since she's been with Traverse, she's been way more open.
But there was a bit of like a moment with
an interview she did a couple of days ago where
(19:32):
she sort of shut something down really quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Have listened to this, Taylor, don't tell me this is
your last album?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
What no?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I just saw some fans going, well, she's going to
get married and she's going to have children to be
last album's.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Shockingly offensive thing to say.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Absolutely, it is not the last album.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Not why people get married, No, exactly so.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
That they who right? I think the minds were just panicking.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh, I know they love to panic sometimes, But it's
like I love the person that I I am west
because he loves what I do and he loves how
much I am fulfilled by making art.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
I'm sure he also loves a billion dollars in a BANKUACI.
But I did think I actually get it, and I
don't want to say that I'm similar to Taylor. I
mean we are in many ways. My husband Ben lives
in Italy. Like we have been together three years, we're
married and we've never lived together. And I am constantly
getting this like when are you going to move there?
(20:27):
Why aren't you living with him? Like why an't you
settling down? You're married now? And I was like, hey,
guess what because I also like my career, Like I
don't think why is it synonymous with like, oh, you're
married now that you have to go and give up
everything you're passionate about.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
To you know, I don't want to sound dumb here.
But would you find the defensive if people would ask
that question to you, Probably not.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
As offens as as she found it. I feel like
to me, her response felt a bit like this is
one hundredth times someone has said it to me. I
felt like it was a bit of the straw that
broke the camel's back. But it is. It's like people
say to me all the time, and I'm like, cool,
because you know why. I like my job. I like
being on radio. I like what I do here, Like
I don't want to give that up just to support
my husband when I can support him from this side
(21:07):
of the world as well.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Although when I did marry Laura, I really did clear
the schedule. I was like, I haven't boording my feet up,
I'm not going after the kids and I'm cooking dinner
nothing else.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, And that's worked out well for you because you
are taking.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Brittany. I'm very excited to be here because we're about
to be something very exciting today. If you were listening
and you were expecting a baby, you're as soon to
be parent and you're struggling with a baby name, give
us a call, because we will you and me on
the pickup name your child on air.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
I love this, do you know? I wanted to call
my child that I don't have but the same name
that I've called my dog, and I was like, maybe
I'm not going to have a kid. So I called
my dog Delilah. And now I can't use Delilah for
a child.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
That's a rookie error.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
It is Hey, I shot my shot too early.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
When it comes to naming your actual child, you can
call Taylor Humphrey. She is a baby name consultant, and
if you don't know what that is, here's a little Listen.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
My name's Taylor Humphrey. I'm a professional, beaming named consultant,
and today we are going to help this family find
the perfect brother's name for big brother Harlow and big
sister Frankie. Harlow and Frankie are great examples of modern
gender neutral names that have a bit of a vintage flare.
I'm going to offer some off the.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Wall suggestions Harlow, Frankie and Whittaker, Galen Tigue, Bellamy, Callum
or Banks.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Sorry people are paying her for that?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
There bang big Bucks?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Like what kind of dollar?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Well, she has a range of packages. Okay, so you
can scale it, get a middle name, you can scaleah,
I mean I think so. I mean it starts from
about two hundred dollars, is like the base package, but
it can go all the way up to a VIP treatment,
which is worth thirty thousand dollars. And she's doing pretty well.
I mean, in twenty twenty alone, she named over a
hundred babies pulling in get this one hundred and fifty
(23:00):
thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Oh my god, what happens if you have a.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Hyphen in there? I mean, that's just big money. But
as a parent, it's a really stressful task having to
name the child, like for Marley, Lola, Poppy, all three,
many debates, late night discussions between myself and Laura. Tension
was high.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Do you know what I'll say? I don't know if
I'll get in trouble for this, But you guys were
so because obviously I work with Laura every day for
last six years. We spent a lot of time together,
and you guys were so set on the third baby's name, Poppy.
And then about a week out of giving birth, I said,
how are you feeling You're still sold on Poppy? And
Laura said, not really, She's like, not anymore, and I said, oh,
(23:40):
are we revisiting the name? She goes, now, I can't
be bothered. It's too stressful. So she's like, I'm still
going to use it. But she almost unsold herself on it,
and she was like she needed a consultant.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
She needed Taylor right now. But I think it makes
a lot of sense and credit to Taylor because she's
doing really well. And I don't think there's a lot
of competition in this market except until you and me, Maddie, Ami,
we are on the hunt for soon for newb parents,
we may be at their wits end. Okay, the relationship is,
(24:09):
it's stressful right now. So if you are struggling to
find a baby name that you both agree on, if
you're maybe on your third, fourth, fifth child and you have.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Given up, if you're on your fifth child, give up still.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
But that's where we come in, britt. And are we
going to charge money for this? No, we're not. Oh
we're not first time service, free of charge.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Okay, same time though, yes, Okay, we're gonna splitter. If
it's a boy, are you going to do it? If
it's a girl, I'm gonna do it. How we gonna
how are we going to do this?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I think what we do right is when we find
someone who calls in, we ask him a couple of questions.
We need twins at a little backstory. You suggest the name,
I suggest the name, and then we give it to
the parent to make the final decision.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Okay, this is exciting. I'm down for this. Well, there
you go. If you, for some reason in your pregnancy
journey and cannot for the life if you think of
a name, let Maddie j and Brittany Hockley name your child.
That sounds like the worst I you've ever had, but
I'm down for it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Let's do you know why? Let Taylor have all the fun. Okay,
we can jump on the bandwagon too. We can start
naming babies. And we put a call out to see
if there were any people expecting a newborn who needed
some help. And would you believe it, we have a caller.
Here she is, here's Lara.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Welcome to the pig up. And it is actually shocking
that we did get a caller someone that does want
to let us name their baby. How how far along
in your pregnancy are you?
Speaker 4 (25:24):
I'm twenty seven and a half weeks and yeah, my
partner and I have just really gone back and forth
and just don't know what to call on baby.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Well, Lara, you've come to the right place and very exciting.
As a first time offer, we will not charge the
thirty thousand dollars feet today is free of charge.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Oh, thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Here is this, Lara? Is this your first child?
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Yeah, it's my first baby. I'm having a little baby boy.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Oh okay, Well, this is what we're gonna do. We're
gonna ask you a question each We're going to try
and find out who you are deep in your soul,
and we're going to come up with an.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Lara, You're going to get two suggestions. Okay, then it's
up to you. You don't have to pick it. You
can have it marinate for longer. But we would love
it if you would pick your favorite suggestion, Mine or Britt.
But first question is if.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You had to pick, are you more of a Taylor
Swift or a Metallica kind of person?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
What a waste of the question?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Metallica?
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Oh that changes a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Okay, Lara, what street did you grow up on? The
name of it? Please?
Speaker 4 (26:25):
It was Thornton Road.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Okay, Thornton thorn. Okay, that takes me to flowers. What's
your favorite flower?
Speaker 4 (26:33):
My favorite flower would be a daisy.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Okay, funny you're having a girl.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Do you have a favorite food, Lara.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Favorite food would have to be tacos.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Oh, you're kind of a person. I am a yeah,
Mexican three times a week. Okay, So if you had
to describe yourself in three words, what would they be?
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Loyal, lioner, you're lunch and honest.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Last question if I made Lara, I just want to
know the name of your first pet Christmas.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
It was a little rabbit.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I love that it's also a holiday.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Okay, you've lived quite the line of Flora. I'm not
gonna lie. You've not made this easy for us.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Well, no, do you know what?
Speaker 1 (27:17):
You laughed at my question, Matt, But I think my
question was probably the one that differentiated this the most, because, like,
there's a big difference between who you are if you're
a metallic or a te swift. So do you know
what the names that came to my head straight away?
This one's probably a bit more popular. But Leo, you
said you were you said you're a lion, and you're
loyal and I.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Just my gosh, yeah, I love that name. I'm actually
Leo as well.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I knew it July and do you know what so
am I I'm twenty first of August, so I'm a
Leo as well. So I think we channeled that. And
then I was afraid you might not love that one,
so I went a little bit left field in that
two minutes that I had and I've gone with something
like Ezra, and I know that's a bit different, but
something about when you went Metallica, I thought you needed
(28:02):
something a little bit edgy. Yeah, so I've gone with
Leo and Ezra doesn't like it, all right, didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
It's a little hard for me.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Okay, Metallica.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
They were they were adequate suggestions from Britt, but we
save the best to last. I'm just going to come
out right now. I've gone for a hyphenation as well,
just a manager expectations.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
You want double the money.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And I've also thrown in the middle name as well,
So I'm just going to come out. I'm going to
give it to you here. It is the best name
you've ever going to come up with. It's Thorny d Thistle.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
It sounds very different, like very close to something else.
Thorny appropriate for a child, Yeah, you.
Speaker 6 (28:50):
Thorns thorny hyphen d D for the daisy Christmas horny.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
D it does. Yeah, I have to agree.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Is there a favorite? What's your pick?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Yes, there is a favorite. I think I fell in
love with it the first yeah moment you said it,
and it was Leo. And I actually bought a little
Leo Lion toy for the baby today, So it's actually
all kind of.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
I'm such a believer in the universe. I talk about
the universe all the time. There is definitely you never
talk about the I do. I'm a believer and I
think the energy you have put out there today, the
fact that this happened, you've called me organically I'm a
Leo and I felt that and I said that name like,
I think that's what it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I feel like such an awkward third wheel right now.
I leave you, guys, Laura, thank you so much. Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
If you end up having a baby in coined Leo,
I will, I will thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
I love being here because I get to air some
dirty laundry, okay, I get to be honest and own
up to the mistakes that I've made throughout the week,
and I've made a very embarrassing one recently.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
I love this for you, you know why, because it's a choice.
You don't have to come and out yourself on national
live radio, but I love that you want to.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Well, I just feel like it clears the conscience, does it. Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I keep a lot of stuff secret.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
And that's the problem. You're so way down by it.
So recently the weather has really warmed up. It is, yes, okay,
and what do we love doing with warm weather? Going
to the beach, also playing in the backyard. Okay, the
beach is great. But it was a hot day and
we were in the backyard playing with the water. Our
neighbors were also in their backyard. They've got two young kids,
(30:38):
and their kids love playing with our kids, and so
over the fence. I was like, hey, guys, come plain
our water, come play. There's water for everyone. Okay, So
they brought their kids over.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Is this what people spend years teaching their kids not
to go and play with strangers when they say, come
play with my water.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
I am not a stranger, brid I'm not just pulling
kids off the street. There are neighbors we have a relationship.
We get along. Well, they're lovely. The kids get along,
and it's really nice being in a street where you
can invite the neighbors over and you have kids play together.
It's a really beautiful moment.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I imagine it sounds wholesome.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
And as the kids were playing, you know, you get
those shells that are filled with water like a toy.
You know, those big shells you have like little ponds almost.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Oh yeah, like a pond shell you.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Have like a come on, brit.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
I don't have kids. I don't play with water in
my art. I'm sorry. I'm trying to stay with you,
but I think I can imagine it.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
So you have these little shells and they're just like
in an ankle deep water, and kids love just playing
with little toys in there, and as they often do,
the kids would getting board with the toys. And so
I thought, I'm going to run back inside and I'll
grab a couple more little toys, just to make sure
the kids are entertained for longer, because that's the kind
of caring parent that I am. Yeah, okay, so I
grab something and I thought, I haven't seen this toy before,
(31:50):
but it looks like a lot of fun. I'm sure
the kids will enjoy playing with it. So ran outside.
I threw it in a little pond for the kids
and they loved it. They were grabbing with it and
squirting it and having a great time. And Laura looked
at me with a really concerned facial expression, and I
was like, crabbed. I was like, what's the problem me.
It's not like I've grabbed a serrated knife. You know.
(32:11):
The kids are having a good time, everyone's happy. And
she pulls me over and she goes, where did you
grab that from? And I said it was in the
top drawer in the bathroom. And she goes, do you
know what that is? And I go, yeah, it's like
a water pistol. Okay, I don't know if you know
what this is.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Oh you've brought it in. It's like show and tell
you brought it in. What is that a douche?
Speaker 2 (32:38):
It's a funny flusher. Oh, it's a perennial flusher after
you give birth to a child. It's a nice, delicate
way of just washing your bits.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
It looks like a giant toy electric toothbrush.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I thought that's what I thought it was. I thought
it was just like a like a novelty size toy
electric toothbrush.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
What do you do with that?
Speaker 2 (32:59):
You feel?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I mean, I know what you do with it, But
why does she have it?
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Because she's just given births? Oh, your post bird, it's
like a post nadle washing your bits because it's you know,
obviously very delicate. Downstairs, and I've thrown it in and
the next door neighbor who's three has got this in
their hands, running around squirting everyone in.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
My backyard, and then so you have to go take
it off of them. You're like, that's actually not for
you to play with.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Well, I didn't want to upset her, so I let
her continue playing with it. But also, if you're going
to make these, label them, because idiots like me have
no idea.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Okay, in my defense, I also didn't know, but it
would have been a bit of an alarm bell that
you had to go and rustle through, like the bathroom
drawers when your wife has just given birth as well,
Like toys don't belong in the bathroom drawers.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
That's we have three kids, break we have toys everywhere.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
You know, this reminds me of a story Laura recently
told me on the podcast. I don't know if we're
going to tell it here, but yeah, why not. Wasn't
that not that long ago that your little daughter, Lola,
who is like four, mistook something in the bedside table
for like a little a little massage toy.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Yeah, it's like a minefield of my head. You don't
know what you're grabbing.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
The kids can't go, No one can anymore. That's the
only story I've gone from it.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Brut I'm going to come rute out and just tell
you that I've been attacked.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh physically, mentally, spiritually.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Not physically, just it was a verbal attack. So recently
for school the holidays, we were down the South Coast
and we've just finished the renovation of the house and
the gardening is now complete.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Well, congrat I don't know what, yeh, I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
But I was out the front of the house and
I was watering the garden, okay, watering the.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Flowers the edge of my seat with this story.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Okay, And we're new to the neighborhood as well. There's
a lot of people who walk by walking to the
beach and they you know, they look in because I've
just finished. They kind of have a few words and
you know, congratulate us and all to talk about the
old owner. And obviously I'm more than willing to have
the conversation because I want to fit in amongst the neighborhood,
be accepted. I want to be accepted. I'm a man
of the people. And this old man, he was meandering
(35:03):
down the road. I saw him at a distance and
I clocked him about five hundred meters away, arms behind
his back under the wonder as he slowly walked towards me.
And look, a lot of the people in the neighborhood
they are a little bit older. I love that.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
But you also know when the hands behind the back,
it means something else. It means they're taking things in more.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
They are digesting like sponges.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
They are if your hands are in front, no, it's.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Intense, hands behind the back, big old sponge. They want
to absorb it all in. And as he was walking
closer to the house, we connected our eyes locked. Okay,
as I was watering back and forth in the garden beds,
and I kind of knew to myself this old guy.
I haven't spoken to him yet. I haven't seen him.
It's the first time we're going to have a little
(35:46):
interaction here. We're going to have a little chat.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
And you had time to prepare because he walked for Aymon.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Yeah, yeah, it was I. I was there for forty
five minutes waiting for him to hobble down the road.
But then he came closer towards me and I said,
get a mate, how are you going? And he's I'm good,
how are you? And I was settling in for a
long chat. And by this.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Time, put your hands behind your back.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
I was.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
I was one hand on the hose, one hand behind
the back, and I was I was settling in for
a good five to minute chat with a lovely member
of the neighborhood. Yeah right, it's another one to tick
on the box to say they approve of Maddy Jay
living here. Yeah okay. And then he said something which
it cut me like a knife, like a jagger, straight
(36:27):
through the heart.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
What he said, you had a dad board.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
No worse than that, britt Worse than that, he said,
is that all the water pressure you've got? And I said,
what do you mean? And he goes, well, it just
looks a little weak, if you know what I'm saying,
and I was like, ah, he dissed you, well, he
dissed me.
Speaker 6 (36:48):
And the water pressure on sprinkle mode, wasn't it.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
There were flowers in the front garden bed and I
didn't want to damage the flowers with a strong hose
and the water pressure, so I had the turn on
the half on.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
I know, the one that like it was sprinkle.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Gentle sprinkle, because I was considerate of the flowers. Totally,
I'm with you, And I explained that to him and
he goes sure, and he put his other hand behind
his back and he walked off into the dish.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
And you're you're really hurt by him judging. So do
you think he judges you as a person now by
your water pressure?
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah? I think it was judging my manhood based on
the water pressure.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
That I was watering the garden because you didn't kill
those flowers straight up.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
And I was saying, I can go harder if I
if I wanted to, but I'm doing this for the flowers.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Do you know this reminds me talking about someone that
is offensive and doesn't.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
Mean to be.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Maybe he actually meant to be. I don't know. Maybe
he came in with that dog.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
They were fighting words.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
There was a woman that had messaged me just before
my wedding recently and she said, oh, I can't remember
how she said it, but it was like, basically, you're
tween one. Like, because I've been talking about if I
had a pregnancy right now, it's classified as a geriatric
pregnancy because that's what my fertility doctor told me. I'm
thirty seven. Well actually i'm thirty eight. I was thirty
seven at the time. So she goes, oh, you're like
a double whammy. Not only are you a geriatric pregnancy,
(38:06):
you're a geriatric bride.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
And I was like, sorry, what she's like, but you're
a beautiful like a beautiful one like. So she wasn't
trying to be mean, but I was like, just because
you say beautiful at the end, it's like when someone
goes Noah offense.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
At least you got your beautiful. He didn't even mention
anything about the flowers.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Just the water, talk about your six pounds.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
I know.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
I was free. Stop later in the garden, sell up,
you gotta move.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Hey, Matt. I didn't think i'd ever say this, but
I do want your advice on something. I want that
like male esque advice. So it's been a while since
you and I more you have been in the dating world.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
We've been together, Laura at myself eight years, maybe nine.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
No, you just had your eight year anniversary.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Thank you, Thank god you're here.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Look, Matt and I were both on the Bachelor at
separate times, had a happy ending, and I got dumbed.
I got thrust into the dating work and it was
pretty ugly for a couple of years. But we've been
off the scene for a while. But this is like
I kind of am living vicariously and giving advice to
my friends all the time that are still single because
I was deeping it for like ten years. But I
tell you what, it's a wild world out there. My
(39:15):
friend was telling me this morning that she had been
talking to this guy for two weeks. Banter was great,
Like you're writing notes over there.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
He's like writing down two.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Yeah, Banta was great. The chemistry was there. They had
phone calls like to check that it wasn't just like
a written banter. They went on a date. He asked her, Hey, like,
let's meet up for drinks.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
Do you know what I used to do back in
the day. I would after a few texts. I would
just spring on a phone call just to check to
test the waters.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
My husband sprung a phone call on me after about
four minutes of texting, sinkle, swim FaceTime, right FaceTime. He
wanted the video and it worked. Oh lucky. I was
on point that day. Yeah, I happened to be going out,
so pretended like I wasn't. Anyway, we're getting off the cuffee.
So he says, hey, let's go for drinks. It's been
a great vibe, great first day that he sets the
place like his choice. They get to the place, they
(40:04):
get to the bar, not a not a cheap bar,
quiet like medium to high end fancy.
Speaker 6 (40:08):
A cocktail lounge, if you will, exactly cocktail lounge.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
They're three to four drinks in and some canna past
like olives, like little bits and pieces that you're paying for.
But they haven't had a meal as such. But you
know what's cocktail he says, twenty two bucks of cocktails
crist Yeah. So anyway, great banter happens for the and
there's like four to five, and then as it was
(40:32):
like looking like it was wrapping up, he all of
a sudden pulled out his phone and goes, oh my god,
that happens so quickly. My uber's already here. Sorry, I
didn't think it was going to be so quick, said goodbye,
and just ran out the door to get in this
uber lumped her with the bill. Yeah, so didn't just
get up, didn't be like, oh my god, I'm so sorry,
(40:54):
I've got to run. Here's the money or whatever, didn't
say anything right in her head, She's like, hang on,
is this happening?
Speaker 2 (40:59):
Do you just do that?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
And then he messaged her about ten minutes later saying,
oh my god, I'm so sorry. It slips my mind
that I didn't pay. Now, I'm sorry. I am calling
bs who thinks that they can go to dinner and
drinks and then forget, like what's the big here? And
then he's like, look, I'm so sorry. I just forgot, Like,
I hope that's okay.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
In his defense, I have gotten in a taxi before,
got into my destination and just hopped out and I
forgotten to pay. Because you're so used now to having
your credit card details saved. Maybe he thought it was
like uber eats and he just forgot that he had
to go to the bar and actually pay for it.
Maybe no. I think, hey, well, can I ask you
this question?
Speaker 1 (41:39):
I was like, would you ever if you did that
to somebody? You're not into it? No one's actually forgetting
to pay, Like, do you give him the benefit of
the doubt or do you like you're a dog?
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Do you know what I would do? I would go
on a second date. And I think you have to
test if he's going to be two from two? Okay,
but I would go somewhere not as expensive, not a
cocktail lounge. I would go somewhere like a fast food chain.
What if he did again, though, yeah, okay, if he
does it twice, absolutely, you cut ties, you walk away,
delete the number. Okay, he's also.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
Forty, you know better, Like you, you know what happens
when you go to drinks. You know that you have
to pay for what you consume, and you consume.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
When you get old, you become forgetful, honestly exciting.
Speaker 1 (42:19):
You want well, I just want to say, you'd give it,
you'd tell her to give him a second date.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
I just think it is so hard to find someone
you really connect with when you're on the same page,
same energy, the banter, the chemistry. You want it to
be electric when you find that you don't want to
just discard it straight away. It's the first little road bump.
You can't just throw it in.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
All right, reverse this right, You've gone on a date.
She turns up, she smashes some food, she smashes some drinks,
and then she gets up. Literally, it's like, oh my god,
that's so weird. My ubers. He runs out and then
message you and it's like, I forgot to pay. Would
you give her a second date? Because I think you'd
have the.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Absolutely Look at Laura didn't pay for a single thing
on The Bachelor, did you. I made money, but that's
not the point.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
All right, Will you guys be saved out there? Let's
not take Bad's advice.
This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hey guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Brittany,
I'm Laura. Wow, she'll be wildly offended.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
It sounds like Marge from The Simpsons a bit.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Okay, So this is some Laura's Hunt and Mattie Jay.
In case you're new to the show.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
People wouldn't even really recognize my voice at the moment
because I've laryngitis.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
No, you lost your voice at the football.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Well laryngiis Isn't that like a form of throat infection?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
But you just yelled too much.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
It's a strain of the vocal cords.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Britt are you no, it's not an infection.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Okay? I've been telling everyone it's laryngitis.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
You yelled your lungs off at the football.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I didn't even yell that much. I literally said go
Broncos twice, and I thought to myself, I'm not going
to push it any more than that.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
My first week on National.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I need to preserve my throat, my vocal cords. And
then I did like phantom yells. I was just mouthing
like fake yells. It was enough to take take me down.
I think it's the fact that we've got a newborn
in the house and the kids are all up all nights.
At the moment, I think I'm probably getting about three
to four hours of sleep per night.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
That's cute, but as my co host, that's also not
my problem. Just give me some simplicy let's set the scene. Yes,
this is life on carp but this is our radio show.
So at the end of the week, we obviously do
radio every day of the week. We package up the
best bits and we put it here for you to
listen to and if you have somehow missed it.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Can I just say, Wow, what a week it was?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Well, hang on, Laura had a baby. That's why you're here.
Let's like, let's set the tone.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
That's what I was talking about. What a week the baby.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But yeah, it was Manny Jay's first week on radio,
So thank you for filling in. You've been wonderful.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
There's nowhere else I'd rather be. It's nice to have
a break from the baby.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
That was touching go for a while. To be honest,
a few.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
People did say, hang on a second, shouldn't you be
on that leave with your with your wife?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
And I'm like, yeah, I was one of those people.
And I also said that.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
I'm doing that in the morning up until lunchtime. I
do it at nighttime and I'm working. I'm paying the bills.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Brittany, Look, not because I didn't want you as a
gir host, but I was one of those people. I
was like, are you sure that you want to come
in and do radio? Like when you've got a one
week or baby, you don't want to be at home.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
But you thought the cause I did it for the people.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
It's what they give the people they want.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
They want to give the people what they want. And
if it means that I'm working around the clock, I'm
burning the cann from both ends. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
As a represent I'm a giver. As a representative of Laura,
what happens when you go home at night? Does she
listen to the show? Is she critiquing it?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Is she She did say, obviously we have on a Sunday,
we have a prep call in the afternoon. And I
don't know if it's just because she was being polite,
but she was kind of prying and saying, what do
you got planned for the week? Which story is you
going to tell? Maybe it's because I just give away
personal information. She's actually genuinely worried about what I'll give away. No,
(02:52):
she was actually driving home with popping in the car.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
And she did say I heard the opener of the
show before she got home, and she said it's sounding
really good. Great. I think she's worried.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
She's probably worried on both ends. Like she's probably worried like, oh,
I want him to do well, but not too well.
I don't want him to out.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Can I just say? The biggest rule in media is
don't be replaced by someone who's better than you.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah, it's also don't be replaced by your husband. I
think that's a pretty big rule too.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I think producer Grace looks a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Think the goal is just not to be replaced for
the falls stop. It doesn't matter if they're but.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
If you're sick. Oh, yes, that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Like if you take, don't let someone better than you
fill in.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Feeling replace Sorry bad choice of words, but yeah, the feeling.
And I don't I don't want to sound arrogant here.
I hate that I maybe cross that line, but fuck,
I'm doing good.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Do you know what I mean, you are I want
to like a serious note there for a second. It
is such hate for that person, but it is a
genuine worry in this industry, like jobs are so few
and far between, there is definitely a scarce any mindset,
especially for women. Like women jobs in entertainment and media
are less. So you have this and it.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Sucks because it's bad for brand if I take a
woman's job behind me, especially.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
When it's your wife, Like it can't be your female
and your why, Like you're asking for trouble. But even Laura,
I'm doing it. You don't even want maternity leave because
I'm surprised. Law it in birth, it in here because
she's like, I need to get my job. But no,
you did well. But hey, this week a lot of
things on the show. But I did come out hot
with some advice. I wanted some advice from Matt. I
wanted the male advice. A friend of mine is like
(04:28):
deep in the dating world. Now, I don't want to
shit on dating. Dating can be wonderful, very important and fun,
and it can be the greatest Like I had the
best time when I was dating, but I also dated
some turd burgers and one of my friends is like
in the trenches at the moment, and something happened to
her where I want your advice on what it might
mean from a man, you know. So that's something big
(04:50):
on the show.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Now we do talk about the birth of Poppy. It
could be remissed me not to mention a little popsicle,
but we had an issue and it's something that I
think unless you being in the delivery suite, it's an
issue that you may not be aware of. So this
is a PSA. Just managing the expectations of soon to
be parents has something to do with the bidwives. Oh
and also coming up a little bit later in the show,
(05:11):
we will talk about Fanny's. How's that for a tease?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
I love that? Can't I talk about the Fannies? Stick around?
You're gonna miss We have the wonderful Mattie Jay feeling
for us at the moment. While his wife Laura is
on maternityly welcome Maddie.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
She is currently at home juggling three kids covered in
vomit and milk. So shout out to Laura, who's having
a beautiful time at home right now.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
And you're like, sorry, babe, I have to.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Go to work. I said, you put me up for this.
I had to leave her and she was angry at me.
As I was out the door, I was like, I
didn't want this.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I didn't want this.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
None of us did. None of us said sorry, Laura,
she's listening right now. But Poppy arrived and I think,
I said, Britt, you might know this. Laura was induced. Yeah,
so it was like pre booked.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I went to Italy on I was really hoping that
she would come before I left for my one week
holiday because I wanted to cut the cord.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Cutting the cord is a task that I don't want,
so I'm upset that you weren't there to take that
responsibility off me.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Well, that's why I volunteered myself, because Laura said that
you were not about it, like it was like cutting
HALAMRII you didn't want to do it grossed you out.
So I was going to volunteers tribute.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Next time if the rest one. But the weird thing
about being induced is that most often it happens in
the morning. So we were in the hospital at nine
point thirty to get induced, and we had an amazing midwife,
and with the midwife, we didn't pick her. It was
just you know, she was looking after our room on
that particular day. Chantelle, beautiful midwife, shout out the great energy.
(06:41):
We loved her. We just clicked, we got along, and
then we were with Chantelle for the entire day.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
You really want that connection when someone's like between your legs,
don't you totally like you want that?
Speaker 2 (06:53):
You know it's it's Chantel came to us, and you know,
we were so stoked. And I'm sure all the midwives
are fantastic. Sure there's not like a bad midwife out there.
Although but with Laura, it was taking a long time. Okay,
I don't want to say she was dragging her feet,
but it was. It was one o'clock, it was two o'clock.
(07:13):
We're all waiting. It was then six o'clock and Chantelle
came into the room and she said, hey, guys, I
have to let you know my shift is going to
finish at six o'clock. I'm about to clock off. And
I was like, what do you mean, Chantelle, We've been
here the whole day. Surely the rulers you just have
to see through the end of the pregnancy, like the birth.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Well, no, because if you think about it, some people's
like labors go for twenty four to forty.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Hours, and Chantelle's like, I've got dinner book. She's like,
I can stay till six fifteen, and then I've got.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
To go Italian at seven, right, And then I was.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Looking at Laura and saying, are you close. We'd have
a look at downstairs, and she was only six centimeters dilated,
which for those wondering it's not enough, I now know, okay,
And then good question. I think it was eight I
think apparently Grace, Grace, thank you, Where were you, Grace?
But then we had to wave goodbye to Chantell. We
(08:07):
had a new midwife and she was equally as nice,
but it was just we'd only known each other for
about half an hour before Laura starts pushing, and it
was too soon.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
It is too soon, it's too intimate. And I understand
that it would be upsetting that that person you formed
the connection with for eight hours has left you.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Well, Chantelle didn't even call to check on us after
she left. Sarah the new midwife, who again was lovely,
but I just it was speed ramping through the relationship.
We're shaking hands, saying hi, next minute, she's there, the
baby's in her arms.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, it's just like, oh, date on a Friday night.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
But it all went well. I did cut the umbilical
cord and guess what I got to keep the placenta
the scissors. Oh.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I was like, are you eating the placenter?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
It was offered to me, and I had to politely
say no.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Why, Like was it ever of interest to you because
a lot of people make the placenta now into capsules. Yeah,
and they're like taking them like a vitamin. It's the
most nutrient dense thing on the planet. If they roll
your eyes produce a grace.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
It was tempting, but on this occasion, I just went
for the scissors.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Okay, that's a bit more boring. A lot of other
people who apparently bury it in the yard and stuff
like that. It's like you use it for plants and stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
It helps grow, and that's a beautiful thing if that's
your jam. But once again, for me, I'm into arts
and crafts. I just wanted my hands on those scissors,
and I've got them, and I'll give them to Poppy
when she turns twenty one.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
So what are you going to do with them?
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Hold them?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I know both of you they will not last a week,
they will be lost somewhere.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
They're in the cutlery drawer right now. So when the
kids need arts and crafts like saladzi or if anyone
happens to give birth in our house, good news and
belicle God can get cut with those scissors.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Okay, last question, so who actually delivers the baby? The
midwife or did you have like an obstetrician that physically
pulls it out?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Shout out to Bobby the obstetricians. Okay, the ob what's up?
He came in. It all happens really quickly. It's hard to.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Hang on a minute. Go she was dragging her feet.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
No, but then the point like you sneeze and it's over.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Oh, there's so many women listening to this right now.
You do not sneeze.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Let me just this is going terrible. Let's go, oh
my god. But I've seen something online. This is a
controversial spin on a child playdate, and I want you
to tell me if this is acceptable or not.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Okay, is this like something like I swear this was
my friend and it really was. You wre like I
have a friend.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Look not quite. You're close. You're close. Okay, we all
know that having kids. Something that is very normal is
having playdates. Yeah right, yes, But there's one thing that
this mum, she's from the States, she is doing off
the back end of his playdates, which is getting a
lot of people up in arms. Okay, have a listen
to this.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
So I sat over in my OPENMO request and it
just said, hey, I had a great playdate. I set
you a VENMO for thirty six dollars for food and supplice.
So this other mom said, thanks for the hospitality, but
this is like a price scouging scheme to like make money.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And they called it like a bill.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
While her son was over, I just kept on my
notes tab, a running tab of everything that her son
used during the play date.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
This can't be real.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I actually think price gouging. That's very unfair because thirty
six dollars. Let's just remind people that a babysitter per
hour will charge about thirty six up to forty five dollars.
So I actually think it's a very fair investment.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But what is she charging. Did they go to like
a theme park? What's the money for?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think it's just you know, at home, they're going
to use coloring in paper. There's materials that child would
need to be fed. So it's going to cover things
like food. Food's not cheap, cost a living, breat Okay,
when you answer this, does Delilah your dog go on playdates?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Okay? Does it cost you money?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
I send her food?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
You send food? Okay? Yeah? And if you didn't send
her food, do you think it would be unreasonable if
the person looking after Delilah would say, Hey, I'm going
to charge you thirty dollars because I had to feed
her and also pooh bags and et cetera.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
I don't think we can relate my dog to kids.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
You're a pet parent, Bret.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
But what I will say is I remember take, like,
let's cast our minds back to when I was on
a playdate. I'm one of four kids, but my parents,
if I went on a playdate to someone else's house,
they would send me with money for that kind of stuff.
So you'd go with, like, I don't know, it was
ten dollars, fifteen dollars, and that would be your pool entry,
and that would be your food for lunch or whatever
(12:51):
it's like. So it was never expected for the parent
to pay.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
But essentially your mum was doing exactly what this woman wants,
but she was just frontending it. Do you agree no,
because no, you agree that parents out there should be
charging for playdates. Britt Hockley, No, I.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Do not from your mouth, I absolutely do not. I
think that that poor kid's not gonna have any friends.
No one is going to want to go and play
that kid's house. You cannot charge for a piece of
coloring paper. If you're inviting a kid to your house
to have a playdate, then the food is on you.
The chicken nuggets are on you. You're not saying here's
two dollars for a chicken nugget.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I disagree that child will have friends, Maley, Poppy and Lola.
We'll go over that if she's going to have a
playdate and take my kids for a couple of hours
and it's only going to cost me thirty six dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
So I do not believe you are ever going to
send a venmo request to anyone for a playdate. If
any kid comes to your house for a playdate, you
are not ven mooween or it's a quick way to
get cancer.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
No, I use PayPal.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
It's to pick up with Britt, Laura and Maddie Jake.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
She's not here for it. We can't just like it
white her. She's remove her from every bit of marketing
material possible.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Please you watch, Matt's going to photo shop his face
onto every picture of Laura on the pickup.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Give me a log in and I'll do it. I've
been looking tight up in your computer trying to figure
out what the password is.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Hey, you'll probably love this, Matt, because this could be
up your alley for trying to steal Laura's job. Ai.
I want to talk to you about this new actress
that's taking over Hollywood. I don't know if you've seen her.
Her name is Tilly Norwood. I'm going to show you
a photo over.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
She's like super cute girl next door, every girl next door.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Like long, luscious brown hair. Her Instagram is like she's
just having coffees and like doing things with the girls
and yogurt and whatever. And she's just been I believe
it was like can Film Festival. So her manager been
there selling her. Right, She's the next big thing in Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
So do they just walk around with a tablet being
like this is Tilly? How do they sell her?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
This is a problem. So Tilly is not a real actress,
even though she's like quoted to be the next hot thing.
She's AI. So she doesn't exist. And this is getting
a lot of Hollywood off side, because in mad you're
at like the biggest film festival, and all anyone is
talking about is somebody that doesn't exist. And so what
(15:07):
her agency has said is like we all we have Sorry,
we've taken the best of who we think are all
the best actresses to create this one like super actress.
And they've even said, like she's the next Scarlet, You're Hansen.
Now the problem is Scarlet your hands and still exists.
She's just in Jurassic Park. She's a brilliant actress.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Like she said, I'm right here, Goush haven't died because
I'm still book for a movie.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Yeah, but this is the problem. Right, Are we at
the point where we are going to be happy as
a society to sit back and watch a film where
these people don't even exist, They don't have real feelings,
there's no human connection, Like, how are they supposed to
connect with a TV role or a movie role or
the character?
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Okay, hang on if you're talking about connection, Lion King, Okay,
move ussa right, he's a cartoon. Did I cry?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yes, yes, I feel you on that, But.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
We've been crying things that aren't real for our entire lives.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Break ye, But that's an animal, so it's different. So
imagine what is going to happen.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
If et all right when he went back home.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Don't start me on aliens because I believe in that.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
It wasn't real. Okay, I think we're all getting too
worked up over this. Okay, we need to relax.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Do you think there's no problem with it?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Do you know what?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Honestly like literally taking everybody's jobs. It'll take your job.
You've only been here ten minutes. AI is going to
take your job.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I'm backing up Tilly here. She's getting a bad rap.
People are getting worked up over nothing, and.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Do you know what, she doesn't care. She's a robot.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
But I just think forrit I just think that we
shouldn't be defending these millionaire actors over in Hollywood. They're
going to be fine, honestly.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Do you know what, though this is interesting segue, A
lot of Hollywood actors don't make that much money. Like
there's about one percent of who you've seen Hollywood that
make money. There is a reason that you're seeing all
these superstars selling like shampoos and things, it's because they
actually don't make much money. I remember Rebel Wilson. We
did a podcast episode with her, and I remember she
told us that when she did Bridesmaids, remember that movie
(17:06):
that was like huge number one, she lost money on it.
She got paid three thousand dollars and then she had
to pay her fees to like be a part of
the actor memberships and all of that stuff, and she
ended up losing money. I think that this is just.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Sell her apartment for four million dollars or something.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
She's done fine now, But but my point is, and
I'm not protecting Hollywood. I'm absolutely not like there are
people that are filthy rich. But I think that there's
a misconception that every actor there is making bank because
they're really not. And so it's like it's a really
scary thing to think that not only are the writers
been replaced, chatchipt you'll write your script in ten minutes.
(17:45):
So not only the writer's been replaced, producers are being replaced.
Actors have been replaced. Like where's the end? Like, when
is there going to be somebody that says Okay, cool,
we've gone too far, so.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Can you just confirm that we should also we shouldn't
make cartoon is because they're not real and move fast
at the Lion king. Those poor lions right now in Africa.
They're out of work right now because of the cartoons.
They're out of.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Work because they've been poached. Different.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Well, this is a whole news story. It's different.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Okay, so cool, Grace, could you get me a different
co hosts for fulfilling for the rest of Matt had
a one week trial and I think I'm going to
can it?
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Look, I was like, Matt's when you co host, what's
you gonna want to talk about? And I thought Taylor
Swift The Life of a Showgirl, the new album.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I Am Converted. I woke my hand up and say,
back in the day, I would be the person saying,
what's all the fuss about? She's not that amazing? But
do you know who converted me?
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Maley Marley, Yeah, you do it.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I would drop her to daycare every morning. We would
listen to the best of Taylor Swift. And now I'm like,
do you know what? She's pretty good?
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Do you want to know what I think is really interesting.
This isn't what I want to talk about, but here
we are. When Taylor like broke onto the scene when
she was like thirteen years old, right, it wasn't cool
to like Taylor Swift, like you were a bit of
a loser, Like she was a bit of a nerd
at the start, and you liked her. It just wasn't cool.
But now it's like the coolest thing in the world
to be a Swifty.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
It's like crocs. Back in the day, they weren't cool.
Look at them now. Taylor's CROs is essentially like crocs.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
She would hate that comparison. But she has just released
The Life of a show Girl, which everyone is obsessing over.
And something unusual for Taylor is she's doing a lot
more interviews. So she's pretty private usually, like she puts
her instas out, but she doesn't give a lot. But
since she's been with Traverse, she's been way more open.
But there was a bit of like a moment with
an interview she did a couple of days ago where
(19:32):
she sort of shut something down really quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Have listened to this, Taylor, don't tell me this is
your last album?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
What no?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I just saw some fans going, well, she's going to
get married and she's going to have children to be
last album's.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Shockingly offensive thing to say.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Absolutely, it is not the last album.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Not why people get married, No, exactly so.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
That they who right? I think the minds were just panicking.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh, I know they love to panic sometimes, But it's
like I love the person that I I am west
because he loves what I do and he loves how
much I am fulfilled by making art.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
I'm sure he also loves a billion dollars in a BANKUACI.
But I did think I actually get it, and I
don't want to say that I'm similar to Taylor. I
mean we are in many ways. My husband Ben lives
in Italy. Like we have been together three years, we're
married and we've never lived together. And I am constantly
getting this like when are you going to move there?
(20:27):
Why aren't you living with him? Like why an't you
settling down? You're married now? And I was like, hey,
guess what because I also like my career, Like I
don't think why is it synonymous with like, oh, you're
married now that you have to go and give up
everything you're passionate about.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
To you know, I don't want to sound dumb here.
But would you find the defensive if people would ask
that question to you, Probably not.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
As offens as as she found it. I feel like
to me, her response felt a bit like this is
one hundredth times someone has said it to me. I
felt like it was a bit of the straw that
broke the camel's back. But it is. It's like people
say to me all the time, and I'm like, cool,
because you know why. I like my job. I like
being on radio. I like what I do here, Like
I don't want to give that up just to support
my husband when I can support him from this side
(21:07):
of the world as well.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Although when I did marry Laura, I really did clear
the schedule. I was like, I haven't boording my feet up,
I'm not going after the kids and I'm cooking dinner
nothing else.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, And that's worked out well for you because you
are taking.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Brittany. I'm very excited to be here because we're about
to be something very exciting today. If you were listening
and you were expecting a baby, you're as soon to
be parent and you're struggling with a baby name, give
us a call, because we will you and me on
the pickup name your child on air.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
I love this, do you know? I wanted to call
my child that I don't have but the same name
that I've called my dog, and I was like, maybe
I'm not going to have a kid. So I called
my dog Delilah. And now I can't use Delilah for
a child.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
That's a rookie error.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
It is Hey, I shot my shot too early.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
When it comes to naming your actual child, you can
call Taylor Humphrey. She is a baby name consultant, and
if you don't know what that is, here's a little Listen.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
My name's Taylor Humphrey. I'm a professional, beaming named consultant,
and today we are going to help this family find
the perfect brother's name for big brother Harlow and big
sister Frankie. Harlow and Frankie are great examples of modern
gender neutral names that have a bit of a vintage flare.
I'm going to offer some off the.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Wall suggestions Harlow, Frankie and Whittaker, Galen Tigue, Bellamy, Callum
or Banks.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Sorry people are paying her for that?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
There bang big Bucks?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Like what kind of dollar?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Well, she has a range of packages. Okay, so you
can scale it, get a middle name, you can scaleah,
I mean I think so. I mean it starts from
about two hundred dollars, is like the base package, but
it can go all the way up to a VIP treatment,
which is worth thirty thousand dollars. And she's doing pretty well.
I mean, in twenty twenty alone, she named over a
hundred babies pulling in get this one hundred and fifty
(23:00):
thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Oh my god, what happens if you have a.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Hyphen in there? I mean, that's just big money. But
as a parent, it's a really stressful task having to
name the child, like for Marley, Lola, Poppy, all three,
many debates, late night discussions between myself and Laura. Tension
was high.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Do you know what I'll say? I don't know if
I'll get in trouble for this, But you guys were
so because obviously I work with Laura every day for
last six years. We spent a lot of time together,
and you guys were so set on the third baby's name, Poppy.
And then about a week out of giving birth, I said,
how are you feeling You're still sold on Poppy? And
Laura said, not really, She's like, not anymore, and I said, oh,
(23:40):
are we revisiting the name? She goes, now, I can't
be bothered. It's too stressful. So she's like, I'm still
going to use it. But she almost unsold herself on it,
and she was like she needed a consultant.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
She needed Taylor right now. But I think it makes
a lot of sense and credit to Taylor because she's
doing really well. And I don't think there's a lot
of competition in this market except until you and me, Maddie, Ami,
we are on the hunt for soon for newb parents,
we may be at their wits end. Okay, the relationship is,
(24:09):
it's stressful right now. So if you are struggling to
find a baby name that you both agree on, if
you're maybe on your third, fourth, fifth child and you have.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Given up, if you're on your fifth child, give up still.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
But that's where we come in, britt. And are we
going to charge money for this? No, we're not. Oh
we're not first time service, free of charge.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Okay, same time though, yes, Okay, we're gonna splitter. If
it's a boy, are you going to do it? If
it's a girl, I'm gonna do it. How we gonna
how are we going to do this?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
I think what we do right is when we find
someone who calls in, we ask him a couple of questions.
We need twins at a little backstory. You suggest the name,
I suggest the name, and then we give it to
the parent to make the final decision.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Okay, this is exciting. I'm down for this. Well, there
you go. If you, for some reason in your pregnancy
journey and cannot for the life if you think of
a name, let Maddie j and Brittany Hockley name your child.
That sounds like the worst I you've ever had, but
I'm down for it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Let's do you know why? Let Taylor have all the fun. Okay,
we can jump on the bandwagon too. We can start
naming babies. And we put a call out to see
if there were any people expecting a newborn who needed
some help. And would you believe it, we have a caller.
Here she is, here's Lara.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Welcome to the pig up. And it is actually shocking
that we did get a caller someone that does want
to let us name their baby. How how far along
in your pregnancy are you?
Speaker 4 (25:24):
I'm twenty seven and a half weeks and yeah, my
partner and I have just really gone back and forth
and just don't know what to call on baby.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Well, Lara, you've come to the right place and very exciting.
As a first time offer, we will not charge the
thirty thousand dollars feet today is free of charge.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Oh, thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Here is this, Lara? Is this your first child?
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Yeah, it's my first baby. I'm having a little baby boy.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Oh okay, Well, this is what we're gonna do. We're
gonna ask you a question each We're going to try
and find out who you are deep in your soul,
and we're going to come up with an.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Lara, You're going to get two suggestions. Okay, then it's
up to you. You don't have to pick it. You
can have it marinate for longer. But we would love
it if you would pick your favorite suggestion, Mine or Britt.
But first question is if.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You had to pick, are you more of a Taylor
Swift or a Metallica kind of person?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
What a waste of the question?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Metallica?
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Oh that changes a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Okay, Lara, what street did you grow up on? The
name of it? Please?
Speaker 4 (26:25):
It was Thornton Road.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Okay, Thornton thorn. Okay, that takes me to flowers. What's
your favorite flower?
Speaker 4 (26:33):
My favorite flower would be a daisy.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Okay, funny you're having a girl.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Do you have a favorite food, Lara.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Favorite food would have to be tacos.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Oh, you're kind of a person. I am a yeah,
Mexican three times a week. Okay, So if you had
to describe yourself in three words, what would they be?
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Loyal, lioner, you're lunch and honest.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Last question if I made Lara, I just want to
know the name of your first pet Christmas.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
It was a little rabbit.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
I love that it's also a holiday.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Okay, you've lived quite the line of Flora. I'm not
gonna lie. You've not made this easy for us.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Well, no, do you know what?
Speaker 1 (27:17):
You laughed at my question, Matt, But I think my
question was probably the one that differentiated this the most, because, like,
there's a big difference between who you are if you're
a metallic or a te swift. So do you know
what the names that came to my head straight away?
This one's probably a bit more popular. But Leo, you
said you were you said you're a lion, and you're
loyal and I.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Just my gosh, yeah, I love that name. I'm actually
Leo as well.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I knew it July and do you know what so
am I I'm twenty first of August, so I'm a
Leo as well. So I think we channeled that. And
then I was afraid you might not love that one,
so I went a little bit left field in that
two minutes that I had and I've gone with something
like Ezra, and I know that's a bit different, but
something about when you went Metallica, I thought you needed
(28:02):
something a little bit edgy. Yeah, so I've gone with
Leo and Ezra doesn't like it, all right, didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
It's a little hard for me.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Okay, Metallica.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
They were they were adequate suggestions from Britt, but we
save the best to last. I'm just going to come
out right now. I've gone for a hyphenation as well,
just a manager expectations.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
You want double the money.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And I've also thrown in the middle name as well,
So I'm just going to come out. I'm going to
give it to you here. It is the best name
you've ever going to come up with. It's Thorny d Thistle.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
It sounds very different, like very close to something else.
Thorny appropriate for a child, Yeah, you.
Speaker 6 (28:50):
Thorns thorny hyphen d D for the daisy Christmas horny.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
D it does. Yeah, I have to agree.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Is there a favorite? What's your pick?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Yes, there is a favorite. I think I fell in
love with it the first yeah moment you said it,
and it was Leo. And I actually bought a little
Leo Lion toy for the baby today, So it's actually
all kind of.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
I'm such a believer in the universe. I talk about
the universe all the time. There is definitely you never
talk about the I do. I'm a believer and I
think the energy you have put out there today, the
fact that this happened, you've called me organically I'm a
Leo and I felt that and I said that name like,
I think that's what it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I feel like such an awkward third wheel right now.
I leave you, guys, Laura, thank you so much. Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
If you end up having a baby in coined Leo,
I will, I will thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
I love being here because I get to air some
dirty laundry, okay, I get to be honest and own
up to the mistakes that I've made throughout the week,
and I've made a very embarrassing one recently.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
I love this for you, you know why, because it's a choice.
You don't have to come and out yourself on national
live radio, but I love that you want to.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Well, I just feel like it clears the conscience, does it. Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I keep a lot of stuff secret.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
And that's the problem. You're so way down by it.
So recently the weather has really warmed up. It is, yes, okay,
and what do we love doing with warm weather? Going
to the beach, also playing in the backyard. Okay, the
beach is great. But it was a hot day and
we were in the backyard playing with the water. Our
neighbors were also in their backyard. They've got two young kids,
(30:38):
and their kids love playing with our kids, and so
over the fence. I was like, hey, guys, come plain
our water, come play. There's water for everyone. Okay, So
they brought their kids over.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Is this what people spend years teaching their kids not
to go and play with strangers when they say, come
play with my water.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
I am not a stranger, brid I'm not just pulling
kids off the street. There are neighbors we have a relationship.
We get along. Well, they're lovely. The kids get along,
and it's really nice being in a street where you
can invite the neighbors over and you have kids play together.
It's a really beautiful moment.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I imagine it sounds wholesome.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
And as the kids were playing, you know, you get
those shells that are filled with water like a toy.
You know, those big shells you have like little ponds almost.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Oh yeah, like a pond shell you.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Have like a come on, brit.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
I don't have kids. I don't play with water in
my art. I'm sorry. I'm trying to stay with you,
but I think I can imagine it.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
So you have these little shells and they're just like
in an ankle deep water, and kids love just playing
with little toys in there, and as they often do,
the kids would getting board with the toys. And so
I thought, I'm going to run back inside and I'll
grab a couple more little toys, just to make sure
the kids are entertained for longer, because that's the kind
of caring parent that I am. Yeah, okay, so I
grab something and I thought, I haven't seen this toy before,
(31:50):
but it looks like a lot of fun. I'm sure
the kids will enjoy playing with it. So ran outside.
I threw it in a little pond for the kids
and they loved it. They were grabbing with it and
squirting it and having a great time. And Laura looked
at me with a really concerned facial expression, and I
was like, crabbed. I was like, what's the problem me.
It's not like I've grabbed a serrated knife. You know.
(32:11):
The kids are having a good time, everyone's happy. And
she pulls me over and she goes, where did you
grab that from? And I said it was in the
top drawer in the bathroom. And she goes, do you
know what that is? And I go, yeah, it's like
a water pistol. Okay, I don't know if you know
what this is.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Oh you've brought it in. It's like show and tell
you brought it in. What is that a douche?
Speaker 2 (32:38):
It's a funny flusher. Oh, it's a perennial flusher after
you give birth to a child. It's a nice, delicate
way of just washing your bits.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
It looks like a giant toy electric toothbrush.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
I thought that's what I thought it was. I thought
it was just like a like a novelty size toy
electric toothbrush.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
What do you do with that?
Speaker 2 (32:59):
You feel?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I mean, I know what you do with it, But
why does she have it?
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Because she's just given births? Oh, your post bird, it's
like a post nadle washing your bits because it's you know,
obviously very delicate. Downstairs, and I've thrown it in and
the next door neighbor who's three has got this in
their hands, running around squirting everyone in.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
My backyard, and then so you have to go take
it off of them. You're like, that's actually not for
you to play with.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
Well, I didn't want to upset her, so I let
her continue playing with it. But also, if you're going
to make these, label them, because idiots like me have
no idea.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Okay, in my defense, I also didn't know, but it
would have been a bit of an alarm bell that
you had to go and rustle through, like the bathroom
drawers when your wife has just given birth as well,
Like toys don't belong in the bathroom drawers.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
That's we have three kids, break we have toys everywhere.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
You know, this reminds me of a story Laura recently
told me on the podcast. I don't know if we're
going to tell it here, but yeah, why not. Wasn't
that not that long ago that your little daughter, Lola,
who is like four, mistook something in the bedside table
for like a little a little massage toy.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Yeah, it's like a minefield of my head. You don't
know what you're grabbing.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
The kids can't go, No one can anymore. That's the
only story I've gone from it.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Brut I'm going to come rute out and just tell
you that I've been attacked.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh physically, mentally, spiritually.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Not physically, just it was a verbal attack. So recently
for school the holidays, we were down the South Coast
and we've just finished the renovation of the house and
the gardening is now complete.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Well, congrat I don't know what, yeh, I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
But I was out the front of the house and
I was watering the garden, okay, watering the.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Flowers the edge of my seat with this story.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Okay, And we're new to the neighborhood as well. There's
a lot of people who walk by walking to the
beach and they you know, they look in because I've
just finished. They kind of have a few words and
you know, congratulate us and all to talk about the
old owner. And obviously I'm more than willing to have
the conversation because I want to fit in amongst the neighborhood,
be accepted. I want to be accepted. I'm a man
of the people. And this old man, he was meandering
(35:03):
down the road. I saw him at a distance and
I clocked him about five hundred meters away, arms behind
his back under the wonder as he slowly walked towards me.
And look, a lot of the people in the neighborhood
they are a little bit older. I love that.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
But you also know when the hands behind the back,
it means something else. It means they're taking things in more.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
They are digesting like sponges.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
They are if your hands are in front, no, it's.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Intense, hands behind the back, big old sponge. They want
to absorb it all in. And as he was walking
closer to the house, we connected our eyes locked. Okay,
as I was watering back and forth in the garden beds,
and I kind of knew to myself this old guy.
I haven't spoken to him yet. I haven't seen him.
It's the first time we're going to have a little
(35:46):
interaction here. We're going to have a little chat.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
And you had time to prepare because he walked for Aymon.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
Yeah, yeah, it was I. I was there for forty
five minutes waiting for him to hobble down the road.
But then he came closer towards me and I said,
get a mate, how are you going? And he's I'm good,
how are you? And I was settling in for a
long chat. And by this.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Time, put your hands behind your back.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
I was.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
I was one hand on the hose, one hand behind
the back, and I was I was settling in for
a good five to minute chat with a lovely member
of the neighborhood. Yeah right, it's another one to tick
on the box to say they approve of Maddy Jay
living here. Yeah okay. And then he said something which
it cut me like a knife, like a jagger, straight
(36:27):
through the heart.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
What he said, you had a dad board.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
No worse than that, britt Worse than that, he said,
is that all the water pressure you've got? And I said,
what do you mean? And he goes, well, it just
looks a little weak, if you know what I'm saying,
and I was like, ah, he dissed you, well, he
dissed me.
Speaker 6 (36:48):
And the water pressure on sprinkle mode, wasn't it.
Speaker 2 (36:52):
There were flowers in the front garden bed and I
didn't want to damage the flowers with a strong hose
and the water pressure, so I had the turn on
the half on.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
I know, the one that like it was sprinkle.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Gentle sprinkle, because I was considerate of the flowers. Totally,
I'm with you, And I explained that to him and
he goes sure, and he put his other hand behind
his back and he walked off into the dish.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
And you're you're really hurt by him judging. So do
you think he judges you as a person now by
your water pressure?
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Yeah? I think it was judging my manhood based on
the water pressure.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
That I was watering the garden because you didn't kill
those flowers straight up.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
And I was saying, I can go harder if I
if I wanted to, but I'm doing this for the flowers.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Do you know this reminds me talking about someone that
is offensive and doesn't.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
Mean to be.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Maybe he actually meant to be. I don't know. Maybe
he came in with that dog.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
They were fighting words.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
There was a woman that had messaged me just before
my wedding recently and she said, oh, I can't remember
how she said it, but it was like, basically, you're
tween one. Like, because I've been talking about if I
had a pregnancy right now, it's classified as a geriatric
pregnancy because that's what my fertility doctor told me. I'm
thirty seven. Well actually i'm thirty eight. I was thirty
seven at the time. So she goes, oh, you're like
a double whammy. Not only are you a geriatric pregnancy,
(38:06):
you're a geriatric bride.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
And I was like, sorry, what she's like, but you're
a beautiful like a beautiful one like. So she wasn't
trying to be mean, but I was like, just because
you say beautiful at the end, it's like when someone
goes Noah offense.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
At least you got your beautiful. He didn't even mention
anything about the flowers.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Just the water, talk about your six pounds.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
I know.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
I was free. Stop later in the garden, sell up,
you gotta move.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Hey, Matt. I didn't think i'd ever say this, but
I do want your advice on something. I want that
like male esque advice. So it's been a while since
you and I more you have been in the dating world.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
We've been together, Laura at myself eight years, maybe nine.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
No, you just had your eight year anniversary.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Thank you, Thank god you're here.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Look, Matt and I were both on the Bachelor at
separate times, had a happy ending, and I got dumbed.
I got thrust into the dating work and it was
pretty ugly for a couple of years. But we've been
off the scene for a while. But this is like
I kind of am living vicariously and giving advice to
my friends all the time that are still single because
I was deeping it for like ten years. But I
tell you what, it's a wild world out there. My
(39:15):
friend was telling me this morning that she had been
talking to this guy for two weeks. Banter was great,
Like you're writing notes over there.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
He's like writing down two.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Yeah, Banta was great. The chemistry was there. They had
phone calls like to check that it wasn't just like
a written banter. They went on a date. He asked her, Hey, like,
let's meet up for drinks.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
Do you know what I used to do back in
the day. I would after a few texts. I would
just spring on a phone call just to check to
test the waters.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
My husband sprung a phone call on me after about
four minutes of texting, sinkle, swim FaceTime, right FaceTime. He
wanted the video and it worked. Oh lucky. I was
on point that day. Yeah, I happened to be going out,
so pretended like I wasn't. Anyway, we're getting off the cuffee.
So he says, hey, let's go for drinks. It's been
a great vibe, great first day that he sets the
place like his choice. They get to the place, they
(40:04):
get to the bar, not a not a cheap bar,
quiet like medium to high end fancy.
Speaker 6 (40:08):
A cocktail lounge, if you will, exactly cocktail lounge.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
They're three to four drinks in and some canna past
like olives, like little bits and pieces that you're paying for.
But they haven't had a meal as such. But you
know what's cocktail he says, twenty two bucks of cocktails
crist Yeah. So anyway, great banter happens for the and
there's like four to five, and then as it was
(40:32):
like looking like it was wrapping up, he all of
a sudden pulled out his phone and goes, oh my god,
that happens so quickly. My uber's already here. Sorry, I
didn't think it was going to be so quick, said goodbye,
and just ran out the door to get in this
uber lumped her with the bill. Yeah, so didn't just
get up, didn't be like, oh my god, I'm so sorry,
(40:54):
I've got to run. Here's the money or whatever, didn't
say anything right in her head, She's like, hang on,
is this happening?
Speaker 2 (40:59):
Do you just do that?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
And then he messaged her about ten minutes later saying,
oh my god, I'm so sorry. It slips my mind
that I didn't pay. Now, I'm sorry. I am calling
bs who thinks that they can go to dinner and
drinks and then forget, like what's the big here? And
then he's like, look, I'm so sorry. I just forgot, Like,
I hope that's okay.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
In his defense, I have gotten in a taxi before,
got into my destination and just hopped out and I
forgotten to pay. Because you're so used now to having
your credit card details saved. Maybe he thought it was
like uber eats and he just forgot that he had
to go to the bar and actually pay for it.
Maybe no. I think, hey, well, can I ask you
this question?
Speaker 1 (41:39):
I was like, would you ever if you did that
to somebody? You're not into it? No one's actually forgetting
to pay, Like, do you give him the benefit of
the doubt or do you like you're a dog?
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Do you know what I would do? I would go
on a second date. And I think you have to
test if he's going to be two from two? Okay,
but I would go somewhere not as expensive, not a
cocktail lounge. I would go somewhere like a fast food chain.
What if he did again, though, yeah, okay, if he
does it twice, absolutely, you cut ties, you walk away,
delete the number. Okay, he's also.
Speaker 1 (42:08):
Forty, you know better, Like you, you know what happens
when you go to drinks. You know that you have
to pay for what you consume, and you consume.
Speaker 2 (42:15):
When you get old, you become forgetful, honestly exciting.
Speaker 1 (42:19):
You want well, I just want to say, you'd give it,
you'd tell her to give him a second date.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
I just think it is so hard to find someone
you really connect with when you're on the same page,
same energy, the banter, the chemistry. You want it to
be electric when you find that you don't want to
just discard it straight away. It's the first little road bump.
You can't just throw it in.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
All right, reverse this right, You've gone on a date.
She turns up, she smashes some food, she smashes some drinks,
and then she gets up. Literally, it's like, oh my god,
that's so weird. My ubers. He runs out and then
message you and it's like, I forgot to pay. Would
you give her a second date? Because I think you'd
have the.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
Absolutely Look at Laura didn't pay for a single thing
on The Bachelor, did you. I made money, but that's
not the point.
Speaker 1 (43:02):
All right, Will you guys be saved out there? Let's
not take Bad's advice.
