Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on Cameragle Land. Hi guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life on Cut. I'm Brittany.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
My name happens to be Matthew David Johnson.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
I don't know how we just did this map, but
we just got down on vortex in the break of
looking at your old modeling photos and your school photos.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Why are you laughing in my face? Brittany.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
It was very contrasting.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
If I pulled up photos of you, you laugh at
me all and I laughed and I was just there
looking pointing at the photos, going.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
I haven't been at you.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
You were hideous.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
That is not what I said. It was just a
very contrasting difference. We pulled up an article and there
were two photos side by side, and one was like
your teen awkward yees, pre pubescent, and then one sprung
to you with like a zoo land a look on
your face when you were in Germany modeling and they
just know.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
That was actually the gold coats. That was the very
first count walk show his shirts off here for Ed Hardy,
I think it was. It was Swim Fashion Week.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Sorry on your face, thank.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
You, thank you. That was quite a stressful moment. That
was making my catwalk debut there.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Why do I feel like you fell off the platform
or something. I feel like this is a story that
Laura has told.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
So what happened was I'm glad you asked so. I
was a little bit nervous. I'd never done the catwalk
business before. I obviously had watched I think like Fashion TV.
I watched some of that, and I was coming, this
is what happened. This is the go but you know,
it's a bit easier for guys because the guys just
really walk normally. But then for this particular show, they

(01:40):
were like, it's ed hardy, it's wild, it's vibrant. We
want to surprise people, be like off the cuff. And
they were like, just when you get to the end
of the cat walk, like do something really fun and unexpected.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
I would find that to be so much pressure.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
I was like far out. So then like one of
the guys in front of me, he like ripped his single,
ripped in half, and he threw it in the crowd.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
And you already didn't have a shirt on.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Well, I was like, guys, I went up to the
models and I was like before the show started, I
was thinking, like, what do you, what are you guys
going to do? This is my first show, Like, do
you have any tips? And they looked at me and
instead of giving me some advice, they just laughed at
me a little bit like the laugh you gave it
me at the start of this podcast, Brittany.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Why did they.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Laugh at you because they were like, you're on your own,
on your own man, like find out for yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Well, it's reminding me.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
I just got like PTSD's reminded me of so on
The Bachelor when you are the contestant and you're not
the main person. So like back when you were a contestant, Matt,
before you do that first red carpet walk down where
you're going to meet the bachelor or the bachelorette, the
producers do the same thing to you. They're like, what
are you doing on the red carpet. You've got to
have a thing, find a thing.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Yeah, And you're like, I don't backflip it, you know,
I don't want to impress.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, You're like, I don't have a thing. They're like,
we'll find it. You've got ten minutes.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
And you know, like obviously you prepped it over the
week before.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
But I remember the anxiety.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Because they're like, it's got to be you. It's got
to be your first impression for the bachelor. They've got
to like you. But it can't be something that anyone's
ever done before. I remember everything that I had suggested.
They were like, man done in the past.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
What didn't make the list?

Speaker 3 (03:15):
I don't remember, but I do remember what I did.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, I could have rocked up with like a boogie
board under one arm. No, that could have been cool.
Did you suggest that I tried to do that? They said, no,
if you did, you could have ended up with him.
If you've done that, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
I don't think you would have let me. No, do
you know what I did?

Speaker 3 (03:33):
They wanted to make it so you and so they
would go through things with you, like who are you,
what do you like to do? And everything I said,
they like, it's been done because there'd been like eighty
contestants before me.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
So I was a big traveler.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
I'd been to more than sixty countries and so they
were like, let's find something for travel. That's your thing anyway,
So I ended up I thought this was really.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
Fucking cute, and they cut it.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
The judge of this I made fortune cookies, right, and
I wrote all these fortunes and some were good, some
were bad, and they had them baked into fortune cookies.
And each fortune cookie was a different color. Now appropriation,
now my favorite all they approved it. Now my favorite
color had the best fortune in it. And so I
said to Nick, like, so it was the honey badger.

(04:16):
My whole stick was I had all these fortunes in there, and.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
How many roughly five? Okay, And so the.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Whole thing was like, hey, what's it going to be.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
If you can pick my favorite color, you're going to
get a good fortune.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
I actually think that's pretty good. So what did he pick?

Speaker 1 (04:27):
He picked my color blue?

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Yeah, and so and that's how that's how I made
it all the way to the end.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
And then he dumped me so like it wasn't good enough.
But why they cut that, I don't know. I thought, that's.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Really you know what.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
I think it was too obvious. The chemistry was smoking.
What was your thing?

Speaker 2 (04:45):
What a shame? I just was like, he did his
model walk to the.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
End, girl, Okay, but hang on, we're sorry we segwayed.
What did you do at the end of the catwalk?

Speaker 3 (04:53):
No?

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Nothing, nothing. The guy who ripped his singlet. Another guy
did a backflip and then I went down. I think,
I think, I think, I think. I was like here
it is what are you going to do? And I
went for like a but it was like at the
end of the catwalk and that was that was it.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Is there a video of that somewhere?

Speaker 2 (05:15):
There is somewhere on the interweb a video of me.
I remember driving home from the Gold Coast being like,
I'll walk again. But I did. I did. I don't
want to ruin the story for people. But that wasn't
the last. That wasn't beginning and the end that was that.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Was my So you never fell off a platform.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
I did. I stuffed up a lot of catwalks. It's
very hard and this is modeling easy is wrong.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's why you didn't make it.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
I did one where I was at fashion Week in Sydney,
which was a big deal. It's a big deal, producer, Grace,
big deal. Okay, I need your full attention for this story.
How dare you so sorry? And the fashion designer was
very particular about the spacing between the models. Okay, okay, everyone,

(06:03):
and he wanted to make sure it was even all
in time to the beat. Everyone has to walk at
the same pace and keep the distance consistent from start
to end.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's a performance.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I get that. I was a little bit nervous.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Have you seen the video going around at the moment
of the turtles that are writing.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
Each other's back.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
That's what stay focused, stay with me. And I got
too nervous and I caught up to the person in
front of me. I was like, trying to overtake them.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
You're the turtle.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
And then I realized and I was like, fuck, I'm
really quick right now. So then I dropped it in
a second gear and slowed down to try and make
it even And I thought to myself, I think I
got away with it and no one noticed. And then
as soon as I went backstage, people would have heard
this in the crowd. Their fashion designer pointed at me
and said, you will never walk in one of my

(06:52):
shows again.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Oh my god. I feel like that was something unlike
the Devil Wes product.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
It's cutthroat. Did I walk again? Yeah? I did. Didn't
let it stop me.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
When did you stop walking my last show?

Speaker 4 (07:05):
I wonder when that was what made you hang up
the walking boots. I think it was just time it
was okay, So hang on, I'm just reallyvested.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
So go back to the Bachelor when you were a contestant.
What did you do on the red carpet for the
first meeting?

Speaker 2 (07:20):
I gave her an Apple Shuffle I think it was,
and I, yes, thank you.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Why did you give for an I pod?

Speaker 2 (07:28):
So I just said that this is the music that
I like.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
They let you do that. I had to have the
most creative process.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
And I spoke to someone who said music is really
helpful in there because you've got nothing to entertain you. Yeah,
and so I was like, it's something that she can
listen to and think of me.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
As a bachelor at she gets a lot more than we. Like,
we didn't have anything, but she's living a better life than.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Us, for sure. She had Spotify.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
No no, no, bro no. So that was that was
my That was my gift. That was my gift. With
that out of the way doesn't make it sound like a.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Chore, it's not.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
But we did forget to say that this is the
pick up. This is the radio show. So this is
not the podcast. This if you're just joining us, this
is the best of our national radio show that we
package up and give to you at the end of
the week, in case you missed anything.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
What we did talk about that I find.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Fascinating, and it's because I didn't realize my husband was
in this category as well.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
We're talking about Kim Kardashi and being.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
A conspiracy theorist because Kim believes that the moon landing
never happened.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
I agree with that.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Funnily enough, I laughed, haha to my husband Ben.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Does he think the moon landing is real? Well?

Speaker 3 (08:32):
No, I said, have you seen this article? Kim thinks
it never happened? He goes, yeah, same And I was like,
hang on what?

Speaker 1 (08:38):
And then I found out that.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
You feel the same way. I need a call Ben.
I needed like you could not with him. If there
wasn't the time difference, I'd call him right now. Yeah,
but who can I really want to talk about conspiracy theories?
Not now?

Speaker 1 (08:50):
We can get him on the line.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Can we please?

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, he's got or he's big on it. You can
ask him any conspiracy theory.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Yeah, he's got his things. Maybe we'll do that next week.

Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
I actually found a video Britt that I want to
I want to talk about and it's about being a
girl dad and it features Reese with a spoon. She's
giving some information to Dak Shephard. He is the host
of a podcast called The Armchair Expert, and it's one
of the most important things that girl dads need to
remember when being a parent.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, that was a good chat. I like that one.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
I loved it. I love your parents, Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
I love my parents.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
They're great.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
They like hashtag what is it parent goals? Enjoy it, Matt.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
I love hearing about conspiracy theory.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
And you know why, my husband Ben he loves a
conspiracy theory.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
I didn't know this about Ben well.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
I didn't at the start, and he let it out
a little bit too late. But he's constantly throwing them
at me. But somebody else that has just thrown another
big conspiracy theory out to the world, And I say
the world is because it's Kim Kardashian. Now, Kim has
I don't know, close to four hundred million followers.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
So she's a smart girl.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
She's a smart girl. She's a lawyer.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Now I think she passed the bar. But when she
puts something out on her Instagram, the world listens.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
People listen. I'm listening right now.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
NASA even listened. So have her listened to Kim's theory
about the moon landing. I'm sending you, like so far
a million articles interviews with both buzz Aldrin and yes
the other one.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Do it crosses?

Speaker 1 (10:17):
What was the scariest moment? And he goes, there was no.

Speaker 5 (10:19):
Scary moment because it didn't happen.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
It could have been scary, but it wasn't because it
didn't happen.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
So he's gotten old and now he like slurs on, Yeah,
so I think it didn't happen.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'm going to go on a massive deep live Okay.
I'm going to go on a serious deep dive. Okay.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
So that was Sarah Paulson that she's talking to. She
was an actress. They were just in all sphere together
this new TV show. But I think Sarah was probably
just appeasing her a little bit.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
They're like, Okay, I'm going to go on a deep dive.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
I'm on Kimmy Kay's side. Here do you think the
moon landing? Look, people are going to come for me
and think that I'm crazy. But I don't know if
it's the fact that I'm getting a little bit old
now when I think when you get past thirty five.
You start then questioning everything. And I have at times
been on a vortex on YouTube and I've watched footage
of the moon landing and I'm like, come on, this

(11:13):
looks so bad. It's like it's like when you watch
an old movie and the CGI is so terrible that
you're like, this is embarrassing right now.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
But I think that's because it was back in like
nineteen sixty or something like.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
The first time.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
Don't you think it's weird that.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
Don't you think that, like the footage is going to.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Be bad, but like it's crazy to think.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Britt, listen to me first of all before you get
into it.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
I do want to say that NASA did listen, and
NASA responded.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Before I hear your response, believe it or not, I'd
like to get.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
So, NASA said in a tweet directed to Kimhoten of them, sorry,
I know so modern.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
It's almost like they've been to the moon or something.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
They said, Yes, Kim Kardashian, we have been to the
Moon before six times. Kim Kardashian still thinks it's fake,
even though NASA has responded. But now, Matt, please let
us know why you.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Think it didn't happen.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Okay, Well, when I watch the footage back and you
see the flag, the American flag, it is moving. But
the issue is there is no wind on the moon,
so how is their wind blowing this flag? How does
that work?

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Okay? I actually have an answer for that.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
So when the flag is put in it, it is
actually only moving at one point, and that is when
the astronaut is twisting it in and actually putting it
into the surface. So it's moving because the pole is moving.
And then the flag stays rippled because there's no wind
in there to smooth it out. So it's because of gravity.
So like once it's swiveled, however it landed, is how

(12:38):
it gets stuck. So that's like, that's debunking that.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Okay, what about this point number two in the footage?
There are no stars in the footage, but what I
have in space stars? Where are they all? Okay, it's
in a studio. That's why I did.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
Think you were going to say this as well, So
I have dug deep. I found this out. It's because
the cameras and the exposures that they needed to ease
years were on like a bright daylight exposure. So it's
the same way that you can take a photo here
now on Earth and not see the stars. The stars
are there, but you just don't see them in the case. Yeah,
producer Grace is nodding, she knows that that's a good one.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
I'll have to trial that tonight. But my last point,
think about this, the right, brothers, the first flight in
human history nineteen oh three, in sixty years, how are
we going for our first flight on Earth to then
landing on the Moon. The technology just wasn't there. Boom,
mic drop.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
You know what I want to say to that?

Speaker 3 (13:29):
Oh God, So I agree with this, okay, Yes, So
Apollo seventeen was the very last time we landed on
the Moon, which is in nineteen seventy two. Why technology
is that great? Have we not been back since nineteen
seventy two?

Speaker 1 (13:46):
That's that's my question.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
We should be doing like daily trips to the moon
totally to stuck up for lunch, right, yeah, why are
we not having lunch in the.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Moon and dancing with the stars. Should be on the moon.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
It should be on the moon. NASA respond that one,
would you?

Speaker 3 (14:01):
Oh, look, I think it happened, But it is questionable
as to like cool you had this technology back in
the seventies.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Why the hell aren't we there now?

Speaker 3 (14:09):
That's what If NASA could respond to us at the pickup,
that would be one.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
But also, whilst we're on the topic, is the Earth
actually round?

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Oh my god, let's go is it?

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Yeah? Will you just think about it, Britt?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Okay, Yeah, after the break, we're gonna find out.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
Britt. It is exciting to be here today because I've
got some big news. Sit down.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Okay, you've just had a baby, you're married.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Get ready for this even bigger than having poppy? Okay,
this is the dictionary dot Com Word of the Year
twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (14:40):
I hate this time of year, and I feel like
it's come early, has it?

Speaker 2 (14:45):
This is like the lead up to Christmas?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
What if a bigger word comes over the next seven weeks?
This is early to call word of the year.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
Okay. Look, just for people listening right now, every dictionary
out there, they're very territorial. I wonder if they ever
like bump into each other on the street and have fights.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Is it not hang on before you unpack that? Is
it not unusual that we have so many dictionaries? Shouldn't
we just have one.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well that is a whole nother story. Well, looking at
last year twenty twenty four, dictionary dot com their word
of the year was demure.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Great, that's fine.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Oxford like they've got to be top of the food
chain in terms of dictionaries. Their word of the year
was brain rot.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well, firstly, Oxford, that's two words I can't read.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
The next one by Macquarie.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
I can go. And shittification excuse you, Brittany, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
And certification I'm sorry, has anyone in this room, there's
seven of us, has anyone heard somebody use the word
and certification?

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Can you stop swearing please, britt genuinely like, I've never
heard it. People like it's three o'clock. There's no need
for that. I've never used it. But Colins this is
more my type of word. Colin's Dictionary their word of
the year twenty twenty four was brat.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
That's been underwhelming a little bit.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
But are you ready for the word twenty twenty five?
It is? Get ready for it? It's six seven? No,
it's seven.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
It absolutely can't be that's a number.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Well, yeah, maybe Dictionary dot com they're like the youth,
They're like the website. Oxford's like the old fuddy duddy
like paper hardback. But dictionary dot com they have announced
six to seven as a word of the year. And
if you're not sure what it means, no one knows
what it means. I'm going to read this. I still
don't quite understand what it is. But the term captures

(16:23):
are viral jen al for slang. I feel so old
even reading that. But it's baffled adults, and it's fueled
TikTok trends and reflected real world impact of Internet meme culture.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
User innocent and you're a TikTok. Oh, God, you keep
up with the kids.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Okay, Well, I feel like our video editor is.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
He knows how to is.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
It's maybe this or maybe that, usually paired with like
hand moving like motion.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
So would it be like, hey, how is the party
on the weekend, and you'd be like a six to seven?

Speaker 2 (16:50):
I think so that was pretty good, right, I think so,
Oh my god, are the kids listening right now? Agreeing
or not? I can't tell.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
I think that's how you'd use it. Sorry, I'm just
jumping in here.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
Is it like if you ask someone what something is
on a scale of one to ten, it's kind of average,
so like six seven six I cracked it.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
I don't think that is.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Oh my gosh, thank goodness, Grace is here. I don't
think shine some light on this confusing word of the year.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
No, I'm going to ask Chad Jeep hang On.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
I am typing it in. Can you tell me an
example of how to use six seven? Sure, you mean
the viral slang terminology six seven. She's a ten, but
he's a six seven? So is that what it means?

Speaker 2 (17:29):
It's like, I don't get it? What about it? They're like, hey,
how is dinner? And You're like, it was six seven?

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, that's why I said on the weekend, how's the party?

Speaker 2 (17:37):
It's six seven? We get it. We're young, we're hip,
We're down with the youth of this country.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Guys, Dude, I'm sorry if we cannot google it and
we cannot chat jipye it.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
And ai it and we still don't understand what it is.
This can't be the word of the year.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
I'll find a kid to finish and I'll just be like, hello,
my six sevens and I'll see how they respond and
see on the money or not.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
This is insane. I think we need to write to
who was it dictionary times?

Speaker 2 (18:06):
I get it now, I get it. It's like this break.
I guess break is a six. This chat is so
six seven? Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (18:14):
You brought it.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Yeah, well that's what I mean. It's like fully six
seven hand motions.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
All right, Well tomorrow I'm going to be a nine times.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Right. Oh my god, I'm let's wrap this up.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Maddy Jay.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
I'm glad you're in here feeling in today because I
want to get your take on this list.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
You and I've been talking about.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
All morning, the hot parenting list of rules that have
come out of Hollywood. So I think it was on BuzzFeed,
but a bunch.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Of celebrities have said the I don't know if they're weird.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
And wonderful, but rules that they put on their kids
that might be a little bit left field are a
little bit different. And it got me thinking, is there
anything about the way that you parent that you think
is a little bit different to how the average person?

Speaker 1 (18:54):
My parent?

Speaker 2 (18:55):
I think I'm pretty boring. My rules are very same same.
I don't think they're going to surprise anyone out there.
I think the biggest one at the moment that Laura
and I always have debates over is about screen time.
And we now have a rule where we don't allow
the girls to watch any TV Monday to Thursday TV
treat time. They're gonna have that Friday night, yep. And

(19:18):
then we allow them to have like an hour on
a Saturday and a Sunday because they turn feral with
any TV. That's about it though.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, but I think that's good.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
When I was a kid, we had we didn't watch
a lot of TV, but we had a plate what
was it what was before a PlayStation Nintendo sixty four
vintage vintage, but there were four of us kids. We
all got to play half an hour each MAX on
like a Saturday, and that was it. It was times
like we had a proper timer and it doesn't it
didn't matter where you were on Rainbow Road. You got

(19:47):
it taken from you and then you had to go
outside and play.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
So strict. I like that. Yeah, I think that's a
great rule. Kids these days they could learn from that.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Well, there's a lot of Hollywood to come out.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
I want to read you some of them and go
and see what you think. So Drew Barry More, for example,
she has come out and said that she's put a
strict rule down that her kids, under no circumstances, can
act no one. Even though she was like one of
the greatest child actors. She's like banned them from acting
until their eighteenth.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yep, I think Drew. I get that she grew up
way too quick. She was in like Studio fifty four
when she was three.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
I think she was in like rehab when she was
eleven or twelve or something.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
So I understand why.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
I get that. Here's a weird one. My favorite Courtney Kardashian.
She has said that her kids aren't allowed to use
the microwave. That's such a rich person thing, isn't it.
Maybe I should stop using the microwave.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Do you know what?

Speaker 4 (20:34):
That's supposed to be a lot of science backed in
that well, She says, when I had Mason, I did
a lot of health related research and decided to get
rid of my microwave when she.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
Read that toxins from plastic containers can be transferred to
the food. But hey, don't put your plastic in the microwave.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Come on, Courtney, change it to like one of her like, of.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Course, use your crockery.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Come on, guys, use your microwave safe bowls. Gwyneth Paltrow,
she's always little bit weird. She's got a kid called Apple.
That was weird anyway, Paltrow. I don't know, I say, Paltrow,
what do you say? What do you say? Produced agree, Paltrow.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
I think, wow, yeah, I've been saying it wrong.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
You have, Yeah, it's growth Pultrow.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
She said that her kids weren't allowed to watch TV
unless it was in French or Spanish, which is pretty
brilliant and mean at the same time.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
I do that with my kids, but I just tell
them that they're two tired, so they kind of understand
the words.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Do they believe that?

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:27):
I put it. I put it on in like Mandarin.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Surely they're old enough to know what a different language is.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
What's happening about you? You're so tired? Time for bed, kid,
Off you go.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
It's about like eleven am.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Apparently that is like the best way to teach your
kid a language is from when they're really little, like toddlers.
All their cartoons or whatever you're letting them watch. You
put in a different language. Yeah, because you think of
how much, think of how many things your kids come
up with that you've never taught them, right, You're like,
where do they get that word from? They get it
from the cartoons and watching TV and all that kind
of thing. So if you're at that age where they're

(22:02):
so impressionable and they're a sponge, if you're putting just
like French on, they're going to speak French.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Nope, it doesn't work like that. It does if you
have taught your child another language, please call us right now.
Purely from cartoons. I think that's wish for thinking.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
The other thing was Madonna said that if her kids
leave their clothes on the ground, she takes them and
puts them in a bag and they have to earn
their clothes back with chores, so.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
They're walking around naked. Is that well, I think that's
child abuse, Madonna? How dare you this last one here?
I actually like this one. This is from Kristin Bell
and Dak Shepherd that kids have to share a room
because they believe it allows them to figure out how
to share, and you know, for a closet and close
for example, it's where you have to live in a
space where you're sharing your community with somebody else.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
I actually love that. I never had my own room.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
So my me and my sister are three year apart,
and from as long as I can remember, as long
as she was born, we shared a room untill I
was about to turn seventeen.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
That explains a lot. You're a very caring, giving person.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
We are, my sister.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
I am very close and I think I would do
that even if I had multiple rooms in my house.
I think there's something cool about getting your kids to
share it, love it, not to you're seventeen, though, I
did try to move to the garage, but that's another story.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Mattie J Big big day.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
For you, Brittany. Would you believe my little precious for
Lola has had her first day of orientation this morning
for Kindy.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
I actually cannot believe that. I know she's five nearly,
but it feels like yesterday that she was born.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
I know, when I think of Lola, I still think
of her and nappies, and.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I still think of her screaming the house down, right.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
But this morning they have an orientation. We have three orientations,
so for anyone who's not familiar with how school works,
so this is the big school next year, this is
for Kindy. So the first year of school for Lola
is called Kindy and they do three orientations and what
they're designed to do is just make your kid familiar
with the school, so you go in successive. Now I

(24:00):
know we didn't. We did two for Maley. We forgot
the third last year.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
I don't think I even had one.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
I think when we were at school it was like
dangled you buy your undies over the sand pit and it.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
Was like, so you're I don't remember any orientation either.
I just remember like waving goodbye to mom at the
gate and that was it. Yeah, but it's nice because
you have two hours and you're there, you drop them off,
you go into school. You get assigned a buddy, not me,
but Lola.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
That's like who's my fav any dads.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
And they get two hours in a classroom and they're
not doing anything like too strenuous. They're just like I
think the activity today was like you make a caterpillar.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Sorry.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
The buddy is in like another kid that you can
become friends with of your age or like an older kid.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
So the buddy is they're like the senior class the
year sixes And that means then for each of those
orientation days they had that same buddy, and when they
start next year, there must be year fives because the
next year the buddy is still going to be there.
You know. We try and manage Lola's expectations for a
few weeks leading up to this orientation because we're like, hey,
school starting soon. Like we don't want to wake up

(25:02):
and be like, surprise, you're going to school today, and
you forget that for these little kids, it is such
a big deal. Like this morning, Lola woke up and
you have the choice of wearing a uniform or you
can just wear free dress. It's entirely up to you.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Oh, you can freestyle.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
And Lola was like, nah, I want to wear the uniform. Like,
let's do this properly.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
If we're doing it, we're doing it.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
Yeah, She's like, get it out, get it clean. And
I got a dress this morning, and I could kind
of tell she was a little bit on edge. She's
a bit nervous. And I pulled out a polo shirt
for her, which was the school uniform, and I accidentally
got the size that was too big. It was Marley's.
So she puts it on and it's it's a little
bit big on her. She's swimming in it and she
just goes, oh, this is awful, this is terrible.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Take it off.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
I'm not going And I'm like, oh my god, she's
having such big emotions. And I'm like it's okay, but
we're going to get a smaller polo shirt.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
And she's like forget about it because first impression is
mad of that right, like a gangster.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
I look embarrassing. Look at me. And I'm like, it's okay,
we're going to get through this.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
You know, you don't think that it's stay hang on?
Is she four or five?

Speaker 2 (26:05):
So she turned four and feb we had the option.
And it's a debate that a lot of people have,
you like, do I send her early when she can
like technically go or do you hold them back? And
there's some kids there that I'm like, you've been held
back to a lot, Like you've already got like adult
front teeth. You're like five foot four, and I'm like,
there's no way this is your first year. Yeah. Like

(26:26):
literally a kid like rocks up in his car and
he's like, but Marley, we held her back, okay, And
we were like we, you know, we want to be
conservative here. We don't want to thrust her into the
school system when she's not quite ready. And with Lola,
we're like, you know what, day care's pretty expensive, and
also when you're there, yeah, and your sister's there, you'll
be fine. So we sent her off and I gosh,

(26:46):
Laura and I were really nervous and like my final
words to Lola, I was like you okay, bubba, and
she just whispered in my ear with her buddy in
front of her. She goes, daddy, I'm feeling a little
bit nervous, did she? And I was like that breaks
my oh, my goodness. And I was like, do you
one more cuddle? And she's like, napsya and then ran off.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
What was a verdict? Did she love it?

Speaker 2 (27:07):
She loved it. She drew the caterpillar. They had cupcakes.
I'm like, it's pretty good, right, But.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
Is that like lulling them into a false sense of security?
What school? It's like you don't go and just have cupgates.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
I think that's what KINDI is. They're just still a
fingerpainting every day. Like I don't think they're learning. They're
learning a bit.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
I think they learned.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
I think there's got a lot of school teachers right
now that are like we teach them.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
But there's such a difference between parents who are doing
their very first orientation where they're like, oh my god,
I'm so I'm going to miss you so much and
it's really emotional, and then parents are on their second,
maybe third orientation drop off, they've already got kids in school.
They're like, see Billy, I like the storm right off.
It's at such chalk and cheese.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Oh, I can't wait to hear how she goes. It's
wild to think that she's at school.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
But it's also interesting to think that at that age
you're so concerned about what you were wearing.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
I don't even remember ever caring about what I wore that.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
It's like, it's funny that I guess that's the world
we live in, right It's everything's like the tailor swifts
on the TV and everything's on.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
I think she was just so excited to finally get
to wear like the uniform. For so long that's been
sitting there in a wardrobe and she's never had a
chance to wear it properly. So I think she just
wanted to like put it on and feel like she
was a big kid.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
You need to nail it, you need to nail it.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
I'm like, here's the extra large. There you go, Pat, what.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Maddie Jay, I'm so glad you're here for the conversation
we're about to have today. Usually Laura and I do
this every single year and we have a wonderful time
going through the list.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Will I enjoy this?

Speaker 1 (28:33):
I think so. I actually think you're going to be
into it. But it's not only that.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
Time of year where the Dictionary releases their words. It's
the time of year where people name the sexiest man alive.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Alright, Yes, before you ask, it wasn't you.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Okay, I wasn't on there at all. Did I'm not
not even no short list? I think they know, Okayizz,
all right, I don't need that.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Look, it's questionable for me in the past, like we do.
You think of some of the past years, like.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Johnny Depp made it one year, I think, like, I
don't know, he's some people's cup of tea.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
He's not mine.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
Okay, let me be honest. Yeah, my mum used to
get who Weekly delivered every single week as a kid
when I was growing up, and WHO Weekly in People magazine.
I think they're related. So I grew up always being
familiar with who the Sexiest Man was. Yeah, yeah, so
you know growing up Brad Pitt.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
You know, I used to love brand until all that
stuff came out about him, but he used whole past.
Patrick Dempsey, what a guy, Patrick Dempsey McDreamy.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Yeah's great, Yeah, delicious.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Some other past people are Chris Evans, yes, David Beckham, Yes,
totally get it.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Like I get that. But this year I've never been
more excited.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
This is my whole past, so I really yeah, I
have spoken about the fact that this man is my
hall pass in the past.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
I just think I see you as being with someone
who's a bit bigger build.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
That's just because my husband's six or five.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Right, Okay, you want this a teen? I thought for you.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
I would hit that with a run up. I would not.
I would not be kicking that out of bed at all.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Nice.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
It is the first openly gay man to win Sexiest
Man Alive.

Speaker 4 (30:10):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah, And I know that's weird that my whole past
is game. Wouldn't touch me with a.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Ten foot pole, but you just cannot get past his
beautiful good looks.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
I am going to tell you who this is. Drum
roll please, Matt.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
All right Sexiest Man Alive, People Magazine, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
Jonathan Bailey, Yeah, ok, alright, oh that's not sorry.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
Producer Grace is like, all right, if he was an emoji,
he'd be a fire flame.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
He's no Benson Boone, is he.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
That's just because you've got a mistas. I knew it.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
Look at this picture of him on the People magazine, like,
look at his facial bone structure. That way he looks
at you makes her feel like he's looking straight at you,
into your soul. But Matt, he went on Jimmy Fallon
to I think it was like how he accepted the award,
but he was saying that.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
It was like really hard to keep a secret.

Speaker 6 (31:00):
I went away with some friends just before, just to
get a bit of pale time, and we went out,
we had a few drinks and I was like, guess what, guys, guys,
I'm the sexiest man alive. Yeah, And they were like, yeah, yeah,
do your affirmation.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yeah. I mean it's just as an honor, isn't it.
Do you think people are going to treat you differently? Yeah?
It would be such a flex, wouldn't it to officially
have the title of the sexiest amount of life.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
But do you want to know what? It's a flex
and it's funny and cool for men.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
But if imagine if a woman went on a show
like that and she was like, yeah, I'm the hottest
person in the world, they better treat me different, she
would get canceled straight away. It just hits different when
you're a man, and I guess probably when you're a
gay man as well, because you get away with more.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Brittany, I'm here to announce that, in my eyes, you
are the sexiest woman alive according to the pickup. Oh Laura,
you can she's not here. Congratulations, you can accept it.
Grandom applause.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Ye hope, you're treat me differently for.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
Brittany. You know, being a parent it's really tough.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
I can imagine, but I just have a dog.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
It's kind of similar in a sense because it's a
thankless job at times, it's very hard to know if
you're on the right track. And as a parent, as
a girl dad, I've got three beautiful daughters. I want
to make sure that I'm being the best that I
can be. I want to set them up for success
in life.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
That's I mean, that's a great start for sure.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Thank you. Now, there is a podcast called The Armchair Expert.
It's hosted by Dak's Shepherd. Massive celebrities go on this podcast.
They've just done an episode recently with Recent Witherspoon.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Oh she's like my dream guest.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
She's great, isn't She's such a boss. I absolutely love her.
But she has a take on girl dads, which I
want you to listen to and tell me if you
agree or not.

Speaker 5 (32:49):
Oh, you're a girl dad, and I'm going to tell you.
I think that this is important, and I think girl
dads need to hear this. It's so so important what
you say to your daughters. Yeah, right on their mind
with a sharpie. It's not a dry erase board.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
So what you give them?

Speaker 5 (33:07):
The tools of self confidence, self worth, what they're looking
for in a partner, what they want in their twenties
versus their thirties.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
You get a lot from your dad. Yes, that is correct.

Speaker 7 (33:19):
Okay, you'll be relieved to know my mantra since I've
had them is okay? They're going to date me?

Speaker 2 (33:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (33:26):
So what am I going to be that they go
out and try to find? That's right, So if they
want to talk to me, I got to drop everything
and like look in their eyes and listen to them
and like take them seriously and give them my time,
because I want whoever they're with to drop everything you
listen to them.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
I would agree with that.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
Okay, So do you think that in your thirties, your
self confidence and the type of men that you were
dating did that come from your dad?

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Absolutely, without doubt, onnequivocally mind even.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
The one that cheated on you like all those times.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Well, I didn't know that at the time. I thought
he was great. I found that out at the end.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
But my so, my mom and dad had been married
for nearly fifty years and they are so in love.
I have never ever heard my dad raise his voice
to my mom. I've never heard him swear at my mom.
They have the kind of relationship that if I didn't live.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
In it, I would have said that doesn't exist.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
And of course they have their ups and downs, but
they have them in private, right.

Speaker 1 (34:22):
But so growing up, I remember one of my.

Speaker 3 (34:25):
First boyfriends, maybe I guess I was like twenty ish.
We were having an argument and I remember him saying
to me, Brittany, I'm not your dad, Like, stop comparing
me to your dad, because I must have said my
dad would never speak to my mom like that, and.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
I think I would have.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
I think I had more of an impression on me
than I ever thought. Without doubt, he set me up
to know that.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
Healthy relationships exist and what real love looks like. And
I have always used that as an example of what's
out there.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
So do you think when you were looking at a
potential partner, and whether you were doing this subconsciously or not,
would you compare them against your father to see if
they were a close match or fit.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
Yeah, but not like my dad is in like, I
don't want to date my dad. But it just shows
you what quality and what love is out there. So
I think it shows you what the respect is working
towards the same thing, not giving up when something gets hard,
because you know, fifty years they've been together, of course
things get hard. But yeah, Matt like not to put
the pressure on you as a woman now that only

(35:23):
found her partner, And I think that's why it took
me so long. I found my husband at thirty five. Yeah,
and that is because I knew it was out there,
and I waited and I waited, and that's I blamed
my dad for that.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
Do you feel the pressure?

Speaker 2 (35:38):
Yeah, I guess I do. I mean there's always moments
throughout the week where I'm kind of thinking to myself,
what have I done? You know that's gonna be a
core memory for my girls, because you know, there's you're
always trying to be patient, You're always trying to give
good information, say the right thing, but when you're juggling
work and everything else, you get stressful and you forget
that your kids are sponging and they're absorbing all the time.

(36:00):
Was there any dating advice or anything that your dad
said to you about giving you confidence that sticks out
as a core memory?

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Yep, absolutely so.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
My dad always said, and this probably goes into why
I took so long to find somebody, but he always said,
if there's anything I want you to do in life,
He's like, of course, happiness, blah blah blah. Be financially independent.
They were like, go and create the life you want
and make sure that if once you find a partner, it's.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Because you want them, not because you need them.

Speaker 5 (36:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
That and make sure you've set yourself up enough that
if you need to leave, you can.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
And that was all he ever said.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
He's like never ever be dependent on anyone financially. And
that doesn't mean you're not ever going to be able
to combine your finances with someone. But he's like, make
sure if you get yourself into it, you can still
get yourself out of it.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
And I just have never forgotten that advice.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
Your dad, both your parents are amazing. But well done
your dad and your mom. They have done such a
great job and I'm taking note.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, take note. Don't mess it up. Hey, madai Ja.
Big question? Were you cool at school?

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Short answer is there? No? I no, I was a
bit of a loser. Oh, I was on the cusp.
I was on the Well. I think in my school,
if you really wanted to be cool, I think you
had to be very good at sport and I was
just slightly above average at sport. I think the issue was, guys,

(37:21):
the problem with me in high school. I didn't hit
puberty till I was about twenty.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
Yeah, you were.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
I've seen some pics, so sorry you've posted them? Dare
you sorry?

Speaker 2 (37:31):
You laugh in my face?

Speaker 1 (37:33):
You posted them yourself?

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Okay, Well, I think it's hard to be cool when
you're so like scrawny and runty. And that was my problem.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Do you think you're cool?

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Now? Look, I feel like I'm a lot more confident
in who I am as a person, which is what
makes me cool, right And like Grace Grace, Yeah, sure,
do you think I'm cool? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Oh my god, so produced gracious pulled up.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
I actually can't deal. I'll have a photo of Maddy Dane.
What were you twelve? That was like you dressed up for.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
A flour It was grade eleven. That was my school uniform.
And that was a good photo.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
That was a good one.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Well, actually, were you cool in high school?

Speaker 1 (38:14):
I would say I was on.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
The cooler side, but cool meant something different at my school.
Cool like the smart kids were cool.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
At my school.

Speaker 7 (38:22):
What Yeah?

Speaker 1 (38:22):
And I was like a school captain and there you go.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Well, I think cool people become school captain.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
No, usually like the nerdy overachievers ones, aren't they.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
I feel like there's always one that's the nerdy one
and one that's the personality higher.

Speaker 3 (38:35):
I was very good at sport, so I think I
teached the sporting box like I did every sport.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
And I did it very well.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
For girls in school, what's the sport that makes you cool?
Because for guys it's it's rugby makes you cool.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Well, I don't know what sport makes you cool. I
did all of it.

Speaker 3 (38:50):
So I surfed, and I did cricket, and I did netball,
and I did basketball. And I was one of those
people that like whatever sporting team now school had, I
wanted to touch football.

Speaker 1 (38:59):
Yeah, I just wanted to do it.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
I just loved being outside. I would say, now I'm uncool.
I would say I've gotten uncooler. And I think that's
because I like you.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Are you saying that because you're cool? Or are you? No?
I just does that make you cool?

Speaker 1 (39:11):
It's because I don't care. I don't care with the
fashion trends. I don't care, Like I just I don't know.

Speaker 3 (39:16):
Maybe that does make you cool, right, Matt, Like maybe
it's like I don't know how it works. Well, I'm
asking you because there's this huge international study that they've
just done, and I don't know why people care so much,
but to find out like what people deems cool?

Speaker 1 (39:30):
What quality is?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Whoever's done this study is not wanted to be cool?
What is it? I need to find out?

Speaker 3 (39:35):
It was a you gov survey and they did like
six over six thousand people who was.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
Funding this come on you for what reason? Build houses?
There's a housing crisis.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Totally right, Or women's health and demetrices.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Yeah, we know what makes you cool?

Speaker 1 (39:51):
So that's exactly right.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
Six thousand people cross twelve countries and they were asked
to think of somebody that they personally know and consider
to be cool.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Can we just to see which ones of the criteria
that I tick and then we can make a call
once and before all if I'm cool or not. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
Well, there's fifteen traits that like really came through, but
I'm just going to read you the top six that
just kept on coming. Like this is what almost everyone said. Okay,
so number one extroverted. Maybe I would say I'm an
introverted extrovert. Sure, okay, Openness, Yes, we're both very open.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Well yeah we have to be.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
Is that like you'll tell information about yourself?

Speaker 1 (40:29):
Yeah, Like I mean there's no we don't. We do
not have any secrets. Yeah, we're open book headingistic.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
I am so close to being cool, guys, that's two
of six. What's hedenistic mean?

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Headenistic is like.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
Where you prioritize pleasure and things like that in life
over and like you want to live in the now,
and you think that the good things in life are
just I think if that's me, it relates a lot
to like the sexual side of things too. People use
that term, but it's just maybe about like you just
seek pleasure, you don't want anything else.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
So I don't think that's you. Adventures.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
I'd like adventures. Yeah, I like to rock climb.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
We did just say what are you doing on the weekend,
and you.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
Said doing the laundry?

Speaker 1 (41:09):
Yeah, that's an adventure. Autonomous.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
I hate being alone.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
Yeah, I love being alone. I spend all my time alone.
My husband doesn't even live in this.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Really pulling away from me in the cool factor.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
Yeah, and the last one. I don't know if either
was this one.

Speaker 8 (41:25):
The last one was powerful like strong, like no, I
reckon it more means powerful in make maybe in your
your business or your character, or maybe it's more like
assertive personality trait.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
I don't think it's like who's got the biggest b sets? Grace.
Do you think that's powerful?

Speaker 2 (41:45):
Oh, for God's sake, I think just polite?

Speaker 1 (41:49):
Yes, yes, shut up, Grace. Do you think it's possible
to make yourself cool?

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Matt, that's like a question that came off this because
the whole point of this ride is like, I even
hate the term cool.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
I just hate it. I think I think it's cool
just to be whoever you want to be.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
You're born with it or you're not. You can you
not at chase being cool, which is what I'm not
trying to do.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
I think I think you can train yourself to be
anything you want. But I think the best thing you
can be is authentic to you.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Then you're a try hard just be you, then you're
a try hard matt here.

Speaker 1 (42:18):
So you might want to take this list home. I
don't want to work.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
On it, Brittany. A question for you, my friend hear me,
what do you think of Prince Harry?

Speaker 1 (42:29):
Oh, this is a big question. I don't think about
him much.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
To be honest, I think about him a lot, do you.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
You're a proper Royalist, though, aren't you.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
I think it's because my mom is from the UK
and so growing up I was just spoon fed the Royals.
Like the Royals to me, they're a big deal. I
feel like.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Your mum has a picture of the Royals, does she?

Speaker 2 (42:45):
She doesn't know. I think she would like to put
one up there. Maybe it's the fact that technically I'm
British first. I've got a British passport first.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
I don't know if that's a thing.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
Like my mum's Greek, and I don't have the Greek royals.
I don't think about them every day.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Greek royal.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Yeah, there's royals everywhere.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
That's another question. Well, Prince Harry, maybe it's the fact
that he broke away from the Royal family and he
fled to America.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
You don't like him.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
I just don't like that, okay.

Speaker 1 (43:11):
But do you think it's because he's also attached to
Meghan Markel and the whole.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
I don't like Megan either, I see, I don't mind her, Okay.
I'm more of a William guy and Kate.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
Team William love them, okay.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
But then also everything that he does right now talking
about Prince Harry just gives me the yick. Okay. And
I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I'm trying to like him. And then he comes out
and he does things like this podcast where I don't
know if you've heard it, but they encourage him to
try and do an American accent. This gave me the ick.
Have a listen and tell me what you think. Can

(43:42):
you do an American accent? Which part of America? You
can ask me? You've got a sentence there, Yeah, it
depends on what it says.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
This is the most American sentence I could think of.

Speaker 7 (43:55):
I ordered breadsticks with ranch dressing at Applebee's.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
That's hard exerting him. I love Applebee's. I love apple Bee's.
Now now I'm just sitting here sweating. I ordered breadsticks
with range dressing and apple Bee's. That was decent. That
is disgusting.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
I just love how he said it with so much
comments like what region do you want me to do?

Speaker 2 (44:23):
What dialect?

Speaker 1 (44:24):
You know? The problem is once you get the ek,
you can't.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Come back, and it's that bad. Right, Accents are hard.
He was there to talk about the dangers of the internet.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Okay, the dangers of his accent, right, but this is
not him. He didn't just start talking in an American accent.
The interviewer through that to him.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
You can say no to a request, No you can't.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
Then everyone says always too good to try, like you
can't when your Prince Harry, You've got to.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
Just do it all.

Speaker 2 (44:51):
Do you think they just threw that on him. Yes,
in the moment, definitely. Can you do an American accent?

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Oh, I'm pretty bad, I think.

Speaker 2 (44:58):
Okay, that's what I want to hear. Listen, this is
a genuine American saying the statement, and I want you
to replicate it.

Speaker 7 (45:05):
I ordered breadsticks with ranch dressing at Applebee's.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
Oh okay, okay, let me just sit in that for
a minute. Okay, Hey, Matt.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
I I just ordered breadsticks with like this French ranch
dressing from Applebee's.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
It was so good.

Speaker 2 (45:21):
But I'd live in there as well. I like how
your kind of go to word to get into character
is okay, okay, and then you slut into it? Was that?

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Was that pretty good? What do you reckon?

Speaker 2 (45:30):
That was very strong?

Speaker 1 (45:31):
You try it? Actually, I suppose myself.

Speaker 4 (45:34):
I am an action very happy with Can we say
that is my self tape to my audition?

Speaker 2 (45:39):
Okay? My go to phrase to get into character is
like Gary, Gary, take a photo. Okay, I loradered breadsticks
at Applebee's. I can't Gary, Gary. I ordered the breadsticks
with ranch dressing at Applebee's. Okay, thanks Gary.

Speaker 1 (45:57):

Be normal, Be a normal American.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Let's talk like this, Okay. I ordered with ranch dressing
at Applebee's Applebees. I feel Applebee's well, moving right along.
