Speaker 1 (00:00):
This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hi guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life I Cut, I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
And Brittany No, don't worry about the weekends.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Let's talk about Dance with the Stars.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Do you know what I want to say? The first
off the bat I never want to hear that thing
song again.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
D d no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You know why because you hear it so many times
when you're actually filming it as well, then you watch
your back and then you play it here, and then
you're getting promos, and I just it's stuck in my
head all night. I laid away going thinking about all
my greatest life mistakes. It's like, where did I go wrong?
Why did I lose? Why do I suck?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Do you feel like it's the end of a chapter now?
Because you filmed it so long ago? It's so long ago.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I forgot I did it. Someone was like, oh, the
finale tonight I'm watching. I was like, what finale?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
That were like?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Dance it would starts.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
I was like, oh, were starting January, guys, as that's
a bit of a behind the scenes I started on
January six, fish, I think, and twenty twenty five and
then you finish now, which is August.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
It's kind of similar when you think about like the
filming and recording schedules of Batch or they used to
be back in the day, because they used to you
would start filming in February filming, We'll go for three months,
and then it wouldn't finish on TV until the end
of September. Yeah, so end of September is when like
that was like literally your entire year was eaten up
by reality TV show. Yeah, this is eight months and
I feel like it's confusing. So we all watched last night.
(01:41):
Oh yeah, I was amazing. I were amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I was at home in my pajamas with Delilah, eating
a pasta of course, and I was watching finale and
I put stories up and I didn't realize, because we've
spoken about it before that it's pre recorded. But I
didn't realize how many people didn't know, because my inbox
was flooded with people that didn't understand. They're like, hang on,
I don't get it. It's supposed to be a live
audience vote. You're at home, but let's walk you through it.
(02:06):
So it's pre recorded. But we genuinely didn't know the endings,
So what they do is you pre record two different
endings with two different winners. So I knew that I
wasn't in the final two. I knew you, I knew
I sucked. I knew I couldn't win. I cried, I
dealt with it. I moved on.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I cry.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
I was pretty fucking devoted. I have never worked harder
at something in my life, not my relationship, like I
worked harder on my relationship with Craig on Dancing with
the Stars. Do you know why? Because I think I'm
very realistic. I'm an optimistic but realistic person, and so
I always am able to know where I sit, and
I'm pretty good at reading a room, and I always
(02:47):
knew that. I was like, do you know what, I
think I'm good enough to get to the semi or
the final. But I didn't ever think I was going
to win in that first couple of weeks. And then
as we were cruising through and I was getting like
top scores every week and I was doing really well,
I thought, oh my god, maybe I actually could And
I started to think that I could make the top two.
And that's why you don't dream big kids, No, they ripped.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
The carpet out from it, because you can inflated sense
of himself and then for disappointment, nothing but disappointment.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Exactly, because if you don't dream that big, you can
only be like impressed or excited or you know, when
something better happens. But if you think that it's tangible,
you could have made the And this is what I
kept saying to Craig. He kept saying, you can win, Brittany,
and I said, don't say that, because then I'll be
disappointed if I don't. I was like, I need to
(03:37):
think that I can't.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
I need to think I'm pathetic and then be pleasantly
over me, treat me bad.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Craig never spattered me.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
It kind of reminds me of like the Podcast Awards.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
We won three years in a row and then after
that were like, oh it really hurts.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
We're still caring. I don't care anymore whatever, That's not true.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
But then we won a different award that year. But no,
I guess at the end, I was like, you know what,
I think I was going into the finale with the
one of the top scores or having the top score,
so I thought, wow, I'm going to dance my little
heart out. Some things went down that one day I
will tell you about one day in the future. Now
maybe next year when it dies down. But I didn't win.
I sucked, didn't make the top two. They actually gave
(04:23):
me one of the bottom scores, which.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
It was harsh.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
I thought that was harsh.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
You didn't suck, you were amazing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
But the thing is, though, it's like any reality show,
if you're an obvious, clear winner or you're like a
front runner, you never end up winning the finale.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It rarely happens because they want the bait and switch,
they want the audience.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
I remember to be unsure, you know, like it's just
part and parcel of it. So like, you know, but
this is dancing, okay, but in terms of Dancing with
the Stars, like you know, you've had the most recent
experience of it. But like Matt did it, I did
a few years back. It's not like it's not a
real TV show. You It's to be fair.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Though, what's the guy's name he won?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Kyle? Fuck?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
He was good. He was That's what he deserved to win.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Kyle was amazing. He's If you didn't see the dance,
you need to watch it. Was pretty spectacular. He like
went into his indigenous heritage and it was a beautiful
dance to his culture. He played the digital do at
the start, and he was very talented, like and his
dance partner Lily is incredible, and so together they were flawless.
Like they literally got forty out of forty. They got yeah,
(05:27):
but they also got that last week too, Like they
they are very good Kyle. Kyle is a dancer. He's
a trained dancer, so he was always going to have
the moves and like he's got the technique and so
given the right environment, he had a beautiful partner, like
that dance was a ten. It was a perfect ten,
and so he got the win in the end, and
(05:49):
it was well deserved.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Now that every single person here has gone through doing
Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
You're up next, keysh If I.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
Was on it and I killed it, I was just
like guys switching criz. You were a winner in all
of our eyes. And I actually will say I was
there for the taping of the finale and my days
it was a long.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Night, like a really long night. I think it was about.
Speaker 7 (06:10):
Five and a half hours in total, like from ware
to go, and because if you're in the audience, and
if you're in kind of sight, you're not able to
leave when they're filming, so you've kind of got to
stay in place.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
The whole time.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
By the end of it, I was like, Britt, you've
been kicked out. I just want to leave. But that
is a really good indication of why they can't do
it live. So a lot of people ask why these
shows can't be live. It's too hard, Like you would
have to be the most incredible, well oiled machine with
nothing to go wrong to make that life. And it
was really hard, and it's why they had to change it.
Because if you think like every single person in terms
(06:42):
of the audience, the crew, the judges, the dancers, you
need to be to the point that you cannot be
a minute late. You cannot make mistakes. They can't be
a fault with lighting, they can't be a fault with music,
with cameras, because when you cut from an odd break
in your life, everything needs to be ready to go,
and too much shit happened.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
The thing is, though, I mean, and it's kind of
the way that freeda ATV's gone in general. It's not
that they can't do it it's just more expensive and there's
no money left in terms of like the same money
that used to exist six years ago, and free to
AIRTV does not exist. It's the same for things like
I'm a Celebrity to get me out of here. They
film two endings now and it feels really anticlimactic when
you're doing it, because you know, when it was our
(07:19):
season a few years back, you literally pretend like one
person's one and in our case it was Emily, we
are and then you pretend like the other person's one.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
They come out and they like vacuum up the configurate
and then you do it and then you do it again.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
We did the same thing for the Jungle finale with
Matt It was like literally they had three finalists and
we did a finale for every single finalist. And so
the one part though that I do think is a
bit of a peak behind the curtains is you can
actually vote up until the minute that they play the winner.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
So like the voting is live, that's real.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
No one knows what the end result is, but you
know it's between two people, you know it's between three people.
So with Dancing with the Stars last night, it was
between Sean macrliffe and.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Kyle from Home and Away.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
It could have been either of their races right up
until the end, so no one they didn't even know.
It's anti climactic for the person who wins because they're
at home watching it on TV. They're not there in
the moment. It all happened months ago.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Sean's one of the funniest people I've met. He's also
one of the most intelligent people.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
He was a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
He got into like this career quite late, like he
had a real change into comedy. He's just a very
highly intelligent, highly funny person and he's not going to
be offended to hear me say this. It was absolutely
not the best dancer, but it's not about being the
best dancer. He was so entertaining and that's what people love.
Like if you can get out there and perform. At
the end of the day, it's just as much about
(08:38):
like what you give on stage as your technique, and
he didn't have a lot of techniques. He brought the
humor and I love him for it, but that's you know,
he definitely got there as like a whole package. But
bless him. But anyway, Dance with Stars Finale over. You
guys never have to hear us talk about it again.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I feel like you've been full.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
It's been like a peak week Dancing with the Stars
finale you had Logis like we had very different weekends.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
We've had very different lives recently.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
So I'm not even I just feel I feel, I
said to Cash the other day, I've blown my load
in this last two months. It's too much weddings, dancing
with the stars, like multiple weddings, dancing with the stars,
the logis, everything else has been going.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I was like, it's Britta's just lying in bed with
the chowel and content come all over.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
It's all I.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I don't have anything for the rest of the year.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
How are the logis?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Does anyone care about the Logis? We have this conversation
every year. I mean we care obviously because we go,
But I genuinely wonder what people care about. I think
it's mainly the fashion, to be honest, which sucks, because
people should care about, you know, our entertainment industry and
the amazing people on our screens. That's what the logis is.
But I have a sneaky suspicion most people are just
checking it out for the fashion.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Do you know what I do care about that?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
There was like the reality TV category, so it was
like Married at First Sight, Farmer Wants a Wife, Dancing
with the Stars, Guess who won?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Have a guess?
Speaker 5 (09:57):
I know.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
No, you can't say it because you were there. I
know because I watch it on TV.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
You have to give all the otherwise you can't guess
if you don't give it the options.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
So that the category was best structured reality program right
and best structure.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
No one knows what structured me.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I think it's I think it's like the flow of
the show, how the show works, the mechanism of the show.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Because there was another There were other reality TV categories,
but this one was structured reality. So I don't really
get that.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
But anyway, can okay?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well things were the finalists Farmer Wants a Wife, goggle
Box Australia, Married at First Site, Mustard Dogs, Collies and Kelpies,
Shark Tank Australia, The Real Housewives of Sydney.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I've only gotting the finalist one.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
I'm only gezing this because you guys alluded to the
fact it was the Dog.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Movie's like when Matt lost to a cat at the.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Content It's pretty similar. It's pretty similar on Real Housewives
and being like, sorry, are you telling me I lost
to a dog? I lose to him, didn't Dance with
the Stars.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Imagine being on Married at First Site, the biggest reality
show in Australia.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
It's streamed international that Gana's the most views and has
watched like tenfold in the UK.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And No, and you lose to muster Dogs Collins in
Kelpy's ABC. Even the people at the table when you
saw it on TV were like the fuck.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
The most disappointing part was that I was stoked I
picked it because we were guessing it as they're going.
But the dog wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
The muster dogs were there.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
It was really It's really good show. Though they show
like kiss you'd love it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
They have the dogs unsubscribes.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
They have the dogs learning how to muster on a
farm like we sent Elilah on it. Yet no, she
would have time to shine. She can't do anything. She
kind of sit. Tyla is not a muster dog. She's
never worked a day to life. But yeah, that was
a bit of a throughstpanner in the works. But back
to the fashion, I think that's what people care about,
right I don't think anyone's tuning in to find out
(11:46):
a muster Dog's one. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I think Peter does tickle me, to be fair, Yeah,
but I think it's an old school demographic of people
who really care about the actual awards. Like Ellie, my
mother in law, sat there and watched the whole Logis.
I think, from like our generation or even like your
younger generations, the things that we're clicking on when it
comes to the articles and the new sites and whatever
is the content or media that's coming out of it
is the best stress list and what do people wear
(12:10):
or what people doing on the red carpet, or it's
the little bits of social grabs that go up on Instagram,
which is like celebrities being interviewed by people. I think,
like that's the stuff. It's when it comes to the
actual show itself. I mean, Sampang's opening monologues are always amazing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Look, the only other award that I will talk about
or give an honorable mention to is the Gold LOGI
so like the big main award that everyone there wants
in your career, and it was given to Lynn McGranger,
who is Irene on Home and Away. So she's just
such everyone knows that. You don't have to have watched
Home and Away to know are Irene has been a
staple in Australian TV. She has to be one of,
(12:46):
if not besides Alf like the longest running TV series actor.
I think that we've got on our screen. I think
she's only a Home and Away for about thirty three
years playing that character. So like she' leen is Irene,
Irene is Lynn.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
She's been on there so long that they've written her
out with dementia.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Yeah, they're writing her out with her storylines dementia, and
I know it's so beautiful anyway, she's won.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
You know that you've really expired your character when they're like,
we can't kill her off.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
We'll just make it forget everything. Here we go. I
watched it at home. No one will visit her. Sorry,
that's true. That's true. Actually really mean, Laura, that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
People still visit people with dementia.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Storyline all that.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
If it makes me sound intensitive, it does, keep it
because you've got personal experience.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
And I'm like, it's less insensitive.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Because you've lived it.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I know, I'm joking. It comes from trauma. Guys.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
My nan had dementia and was in the hospital for
a long time and we laughed and we visited her
all the time. But it was really sad seeing the
amount of people who were in homes who did not
get visited throughout dementia.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
But that's why I think it's a great storyline, because
it's actually so relatable to the percentage of people in
Australia have family members going through it. And I watched
I don't watch Home and Away like I used to.
Does I watched it last the UK?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yes, but like, how does that affect Australian red It
rates so well in Australia, yet I cannot find a
single person who watches it.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
I don't it's a particular demo. It's I think it's
more of the younger demographic, to be honest. I watched
it when I was younger a lot like like, I
loved it and all my friends did. But I guess
I just grow out of it. But I watched it
last night because it was before the finale of Dance
with Stars, so it was on TV. First time I've
watched it in years, and I was crying at the
(14:24):
storyline of Lynn, like because her storyline goes over a
couple of weeks and it was so well played, and
maybe because I'd seen her acceptance speech the night before
and I saw how much it meant to her and
it was really cool.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, she's amazing. Do you know what? Though?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
It does make me feel sad for what seems to
be like a bit of a pattern when it comes
to the logis and also like Australian recognition in media.
So like Grant Dania got a Gold LOGI his show
was no longer an Air. Lynn McGranger Gold LOGI she's retired.
It seems to be like once people have like finally
got to the end of their careers, they were like.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Oh, well done.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Well yeah, I'm not going out at the top, right,
But I I did have a and I've got to
clue myself like single girl problems. But I'm a single girl, right.
I'm technically married, but I live a single life. So
when I say single girl problems, it's because my life
a lot of any single I'm not dating, not sleeping
with people, but I live alone. So we were at
(15:17):
the Logies and on the way home, I had to
politely ask you your husband to undress me, Laura and
the Uber.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
So I got a message from out yesterday.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I'm aware at work we're doing radio and he just says, oh,
if you need content, I had to undo BRIT's dress
last night in the car, and I was like, so
many parts of this, I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I was like, firstly, I didn't even.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Know that you went home with Brits, so like what
And I was like, home, Like I didn't know that
you shared.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I don't care. Oh my god, I don't care. I
didn't know you shared leep over.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Why did you walk in the door at five am?
That sticking at brit sequence is that the Lila's hair? No,
So we going the Uber right, And like Laura and
Matt and myself, obviously we live pretty close to each other,
the same suburb.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I do still live with my husband.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Things are going on, yes, and I live in their
old house. So I was like, would make sense to
go home together. So We're in the Uber on the
way home, and just as I'm about to get out,
like wear both in the back and the Uber drivers
on the front obviously driving, and so just I'm about
to get out, I have this realization because it has
happened to me too many times that I'm not going
to be able to get out of my dress. It
was like a zip all the way to my neck
(16:27):
that went really load to my butt crack, and it
was a very tight sequin dress. And I was like,
oh my god, if I go inside, I'm not gonna
be able to I'm to sleep like planking in a
sequin dress.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
And they come out in the morning, find some jogger
to undo your dress.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
So I'm like, hey, sorry, do you mind undoing my dress?
And I can see the Uber driver's eyes like click
up to the review mirror and Matt's like now and
I'm like yeah, it's like I just won't be able
to get out of it. So you hear this. It's
just silent it just a little bit. And I turned
back around. I can see the Uber driver looking and
like darting away, and I was like, Matt, I was like,
(17:02):
it needs to be more, don't be shy. He's like loah.
I like, because I tried to put my arm open
reach it, He's like all the way and I was
like all the way and I was like all the
way to my butt crack, and then I was like,
thank you, Loub. I was like, what the actual fuck?
And he's like, are you leaving to Matt. Matt's like, no,
I'm going home. I'm knocking out with her.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Because I've got a really pregnant wife at home.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Then I'm running down the street because once you take
the dress off to the bart, it will slip off
your shoulders right like it was like a low cut
and I didn't have brown. So I'm just running down
my street now with my dress falling off my shoulders,
just holding my boobs.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
But by Matt, thank you, Like just doing me a solid.
That's how you know you've got a real friend.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
It's happened to me before where i haven't been able
to do my dress up for an event and I
have gone and just waited in my lobby of my apartment.
I'm not kidding. I've just stood there at the door
and I wait for someone to come out. I'm like,
I'm so sorry, do you mind Because I've got like
twelve neighbors or something. I don't want to knock on
their door and ask them to do it. That's weird.
But if you just linger hovering in the lobby.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Also weird.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
There's all versions, but I understand, I understand the necessity.
We had very different weekends this weekend, so Britt was
at Logis.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I didn't go, like.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Twofold one, I didn't want this. I didn't want to
have to try and find a dress.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
You're not pregnant. Bellies in beautiful dresses are amazing.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
But all designers and this is you know, I understand why,
but it's hard. Designers only make dresses in sample sizes
they really do. Like everything's a size eight, it's a
size ten. It's really hard to find stuff when your
bodies are really odd shape, like people are not making
maternity sample sizes.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
So I was like, I don't want to really have
to go through that.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
And also we had this trade show in Melbourne for
Tony May and it was like a wholesale trade show
where you I don't know if anyone does not in
the world. It's like we obviously sell retail, but then
like you go and you do these trade shows where
you selling to other boutiques that can come and stock
your brand.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Right.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
One thing I want to say, I have always been
and I'm so I feel embarrassed to say it now.
I've always been like a Melbourne poo pooor I've always
sat on the Sydney elitism.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
You know, careful that I know, and I know it's controversial.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And I say this because Melbourne has better restaurants, it
has better coffee, it has better everything a night. I've
lived in both, but I love I love the beach,
so like I will always kind of like gravitate to
that option.
Speaker 7 (19:10):
I guess, do you guys remember Sarry Davidson's really viral
video where she compared Melbourne and City and she said
that Melbourne's the less hot sister.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yeah, but more interesting sister.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Yeah, had to develop a personality one hundred because it
didn't have the harbor and the beautiful beaches.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
The beaches in Melbourne. I know everyone is like, we
do have beaches.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
I think maybe I've like reached that point.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
You know, when you're in your twenties and like when
you're no, maybe when you're like eighteen nineteen, and you
prioritize hotness. That's what happens, right, So when you're young,
you prioritize hot like you'll date the hot chick or
the hot guy.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
That's really dumb, just because they're so fucking hot.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
The enigmatized, but then as you get older, you'd rather
a less hot person.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
So I think I've had a full like revelation to Melbourne.
I'm not moving to Melbourne, but I.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Really two point zero Melbourne, Shanta to Melbourne.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
What's a sp to Melbourn? Fuck whatever? What to do next?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Was beautiful, Like the weather was amazing. We ate at
the such nice restaurants, like none of them super expensive
or anything.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Just the food was so good. The weight stuff was
so nice.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Going out for dinners in Sydney, you feel as though
you feel as are the weight stuff are doing you
a favor. These people actually seem like they're enjoying their job.
Like it was just I have loved it. Yeah, it's
such a great time. Everywhere is such a vibe there
so that everyone does love it. They love going to
work because it's their socialization as well. It's Sydney definitely
has a lot to answer for. Yeah, I agree, you
were off like looking beautiful and I was standing in
(20:36):
a trade show booth like hocking my jewels.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
And I said it so many for what take you
back to BONDOI Markets?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Literally it really did, like, it's quite a nice good
life and style. So if you're a brand and you're
like trying to get into more wholesalers or whatever, like
it's a great.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
One to do. We've done it for years.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
But I kept on making the joke that I kept
on saying, I'm here to hock my jewels, and like,
obviously stockist or stock and hock very similar. So I'm
there talking to the woman who's like from a really
big department store brand, like it's all we're doing it proper,
you know, I'm trying to.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Wheel and deal.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I'm trying to sell some jewels here, and I just
kept on saying howk instead of stock. So I was like, so, yeah,
if you want to hawk Tony May, and I said
it four times without realizing.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
This woman just looked to me like, fuck, you've lost
the plot.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Like maybe we'll stock it. So do you know by
the end of the trade show who your new stock are.
So it's not like you take your car and you
think about it and they come back to you.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Some of those happen, but a lot of people just
place orders on store, so like you know what's coming
in and so you can kind of like so successful.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Yeah, it's really successful, thank you, thank you so much. Anyway,
moving to Melbourne and now howk am my jewels?
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Something we talked about on last week's episode though, guys
and I have been sitting on these because I've enjoyed
it so much. We talked about how it's been a
really long time since we've done first date stories. Right,
so first day used to be or first date stories,
your disaster stories used to be such a core part
and integral part of life on Cut and somewhere along
the line, I think it was because brit stopped dating,
(22:03):
we stopped having first date stories to tell.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I apologize. I know you like fell.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
In love and then your life got so wholesome and
then we realized we had to reach out to the brains,
trust you guys and get your most recent fucked up
dating stories, and you came through with the goods.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Let me tell you, well, do you know what?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I'll kickstart with the story my friend told me yesterday
and it's not necessarily worse date, but she goes, is
this weird? She's like, I just went on a first date.
We hung out, we had a drink, bye to eat,
and then he messaged me and said I'd love to
see you again. So she's like, oh, okay. He calls
her on the phone for the second date and invites
her to the opera house with his ex wife to
(22:43):
watch his daughter's dance recital. No, and she goes to me,
is this too much?
Speaker 1 (22:48):
And I was like yes, unsubscribe, unsubscribed.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Also, in that sort of environment, you feel as though
you're being used as a porn to meet the ex wife.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Jealous, that's what that feels like.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
It feels like he's going to want to move in
with you in a week.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
No, I don't even lex from him. It's loaded.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
But also I kind of think that that's shitty dad
behavior because like that's what I say.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
It says not about you or your ex wife.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
It's your daughter's dance rehearsal, recital, whatever it is firstly,
and then you're making it about you because you're bringing
someone else. There'll be a bit of drama. You know,
the ex wife will feel as though like, oh that
was a surprise. There was no, you're a shitty dude.
I totally block and delete. Okay you shut Okay, you
guys came through with the goods. There were so many
horrific date stories. If you have also been on a
terrible date, please send them through to us, all right.
(23:29):
First one, so, he told me that he doesn't want
any kids of his own. This is date one, but
that he donates his sperm often and thinks he'd be
really popular choice.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
I wonder if there's any datam a back that up.
If it's just vibe, I don't know, I just popular.
On our third date, he told me that he was
previously engaged to his stepsister. No. Sorry, Also, you don't
help him.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
No, that's an opt in. You could say I was
once engaged. It didn't work out. He picked me up
blasting eminem on a subwoofer, and then made me meet
his mom.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
That's giving mom seventeen No, that's giving seventeen people. Later,
I was giving seventeen people.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I think you don't think he was. She definitely looks
like she's in her thirties. We spoke about his tadpole collection. Sorry, oh, I'm.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Shot into that. I used to collect tadpoles. Yeah, when
you were five, guppy, So you can't collect them for
long because they turned into frogs and they around. I'm
gon dine in the sun.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Really, what This was you, wasn't it. Someone went on
a date with you.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I collected the guppies you got me?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
He said he was a trady, but he never spoke
much about it. Turns out he was a treaty of drugs.
He was a drug dealer. Oh, he traded trade for money.
Just said he was a tree. That's pretty smart.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
His laugh.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
This guy grabbed my double chin and shook it and
said this is really cute.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
So bad. Yeah, but he just gave it a little shake.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
I once had a guy who was kissing my inner thigh.
He stood up and then said, yeah, just knock yourself out,
myself in the face with my laps. Can we get
a slow mol on that nest?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
His dog ate my underwear whilst we were having set.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
We can't just go past someone me owing?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Sorry? Sorry?
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Is that because he's near a pussy?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Is he method active like he's looking at in a thiet?
Imagine that someone looks up and you goes.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
What I don't even know how to?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
All right, Okay, he was on an ecstasy and I
found out because he tried to offer me the other
half of his pill.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
He said it was nice to share. Imagine rocking up
on a first day. Yeah, but I mean that's.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Pretty presumptuous to think that a first date. And then
she went into more details and said it was a
walking date.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Off the back of that, I can't find it. So
I just not forbade him. She was on a date
with him and she saw him popping pills, so if
she asked for one, but it was his cystic fibrosis pill.
She thought it was like a pill. He's like, you
can't have my medication.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Like, hey, guys, this was a legit first date, and
I don't think it gets more out of control. So
I was on a first date and I had a
guy show me a picture of his poo that he
did that morning because he was so excited.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
It was in the shape of a Nike dick.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
No, that's not true. That can't be true.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Just do it.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
No one is trying to get laid by showing a
woman their term.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Maybe it didn't go well. Maybe he was actually trying
to tell off.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
He asked me if I was wearing any underwear, and
I said what, and he goes, because you're about to
be fucking dacked. I don't know when you're a kid,
you know how you put on fans down. I'd be like, what, sorry,
excuse me. This one we were out of pub. This
guy cut off all the batter from me, schnitty the chicken,
and then he ate the better. I think it's fine
(27:04):
that wander together.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I read that, though, and I was like, it's like
when people eat their pizza in lace. I ate my
pizza in layers, or I eat my pie in layers.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Yeah, fine, you eat a deconstructed pie. He had a
deconstructed Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I know it's weird.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
I know it's weird, but like people have weird food versions,
I wouldn't be judging him completely.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I would judge this guy though.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
A guy told me on the first date that if
I didn't have sex with him daily, I would need
to be okay with him wanking.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Hey man's got boundaries.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
This guy showed me how to edit my legs in
my beach photo to make them look better.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
He was showing her the apps to use.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Oh my god, Okay, I got robbed.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
That was it.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
I asked him back to my place and he stole everything. No,
that's a pretty bad first date.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
That's a pretty bad first date.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yeah, that's illegal.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I report, but it's also like not funny. Everyone sucks.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
If you woke up the next morning the guy's gone
and so he should TV, you'd.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Be really sad.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Where's my Before I had even met this man, he
figured out where I worked and sent me a present.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It was a vibrator to my office.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
I feel like that's a bit fifty shades a gray.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
It was like it was probably around that era. Brittany's
already laughing.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
A guy gave me a tiny book of poetry about
how amazing I am. It was our first date. We'd
never met. I don't make him like they used to.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
There's a lot of reasons why some people are single,
you know. Oh my gosh. Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
He told me that he was a penis puppeteer, but
work was low because of shrinkage in winter.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Okay, to be fair, that's a real job. I've been
to it. The puppeteers, the penis puppeteers. Have you seen it.
It's a stage show. Yeah, there's not a single part
of this that I don't need you to.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
Explain to me.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Puppetry of the penis. It's a stage show. It's like
a comedy show about men with their penises.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Wait, wasn't this on a cruise that you went on? Yeah? Yeah,
it was great.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It was fantastic, and I went I went on a
cruise ship to watch a puppetry penis show with my
mum and the guy was like using his bullsack to
keep the beat of a saxophone like rendition and it
was anyway, it was fantastic, real great percussions. Okay, this man,
which we have nothing against a ball king.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I just want to put that out there first.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
But if you didn't know the guy's bald because they'd
been faking it, then you might feel differently. This man
rocked up on a date and he'd been coloring in
the top of his head with texters, so he didn't
look bald. You know how you can get that scout
pigmentation stuff? Would you use if you have like maybe
like a thinning part or something. Not if you haven't
tied all this, there's a limit to how much it
(29:39):
can cover.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
He went hard.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
TEXTU just wear a hat or a beanie.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Or like just own it. But if you want to
cover it, you don't texture it. Imagine a permanent mark.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Okay, he said, not to worry because I had food
stuck in my braces. He then leant over close and
licked them.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
So what someone looks.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
On what should food stuck in embraces? And instead of
helping her get it out? The food in her braces?
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Wait, can I tell you a story of that?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
I'd love you too?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Makes me feel sick. That makes me feel sick. Licking
food out of someune's braces if fucking disgusting. Don't do it,
especially on the first eight. I will never forget. When
we're teenagers, my friend had this giant wart on the
end of her finger, and she was like a really good,
like state level touch footballer. This is gonna make me
feel sick. She ran, she got into a tackle, she
(30:34):
fell over, and they got into a tackle, and they
got up and there was all this blood on her
hand and her wart was gone. I guess where it
was in the girl's braces.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
No, I'm not joking.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I feel sick, I feel unwell. I'm dying anyway, the
braces and she's like the girl, blood dropping down her
face and stuff from the war in there because it
ripped it off. Okay, anyway, sorry, that's awful.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
This one's a tiny bit longer.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
When I was younger, before I had a license. I
went on a date with a guy that looked just
like the lead singer a Green Day Score. We met
at a train station and we were walking to the cinema.
Along the way, he got a phone call. He stops,
suddenly walks over to the nearby bin, pulls out a
plastic bag from his backpack, and puts it into the bin.
He's very calm. He then gets off of the phone
(31:21):
and doesn't say a thing. An hour later, he finally
tells me that his boss was pranking him and had
put a human shit in his bag.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
What the fuck? What a prank?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
What's wrong with man?
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Now?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Also, like, it's okay if it's your mate, but like
your boss can't do that.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It's like a mounce of power. Yeah, guys, you can't
do that again.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
If I shit and put a shit in your handbag
and you were going on a first date.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
I know men that would do this. Do you remember
when I was on a date? You guys might remember it,
but this is like three years ago.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Four years ago.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
I was on a date. Once we went out and
like whatever, I had coffee, it was nothing, and I
was gonna drop him home because he wasn't that far away,
and I was like, hey, I can drive you home.
It's fine, Like what, We're in the car and I
stopped at the stop light like a red light, and
he just got out and ran away. He got out
of the car and ran away the stop light at
the traffic light.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
You never saw him again.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
To this day, ruber no pretty saw him again. He's
still running and I was liker, has he's still running.
It was I've never had someone run of physically so
repulsed that they had to get out of the car
WHI was moving. I wasn't even stopped. It was like
coming to a stop. He's like Commando rolled out of
a moving car. I was like, do you have direct your.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Seatbelt behind your back? I reckon?
Speaker 3 (32:33):
But it was really quick he was he was preparing ready,
he was like this. It was going slowly. Then he
went seatbelt off out the door and I was like,
do we reckon? You have a girlfriend and he's seen
her or something? No, like he didn't want you to
drop him off at home to get out before To
this day, I'll never know.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
I dated this guy who told me that he loved camping.
He would go away every single weekend. Turns out he
was on detention weekend detention.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Oh he's not contactable.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Okay, this one's not funny. Went to a guy's house.
This is problematic. Went to a guy's house for dinner.
Didn't want to sleep with him, so he just sat
down and joked off in front of me.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
No, you need to leave.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
I can't believe what people are going through.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah, but I think that especially when you're younger and
you're still in the people pleasing years, Like I would
have sat through that back in the day, but I've anymore.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Oh my god, that happened to me.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Warm apple parts.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
This is a story from the archives. Everyone but I went.
Didn't even go on a date with this guy. We
went out. I think we'd been at like a ted
X talk and he was kind of a friend. And
then it turned into dinner afterwards, which kind of was
a date, I guess, but not intentionally a date. And
then he was like, come back to my house. I've
got dessert. And I lived up the road for him.
He should have been a red plum.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Well I knew, I knew what he was. I was like, no,
I know better than this.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Laura thought, She goes I know what he wants, and
I don't want to do it, so I'll come back.
I knew what his plan was. Just give me a second. No.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
I was like, no, no, I'm not doing it away.
He was like, no, I legit, have apple pie at
my house. He's like, come back and have dessert.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
I was like, everything in my body is telling me
is a bad idea, but I'll do it anyway.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Bye and so anyway, and he did only live down
the road, so I was like, well, there's no apple pie.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I'll walk home. So I got to his house and
there was apple pie. It was great. So he gets
out of the apple pie.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
He's put it in the oven and stuff and he's
made these two bowls with ice cream.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Like this is lit. I'm gonna get apple pie.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
It's like, fuck yeah, I'm having apple pie. Anyway, I
had to go to the toilet, and tolet was like
at the back of the house. So I walked to
the back of the house go to the toilet. It
took me a little while.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I come back and he's fucking butt asked naked, sitting
there with no clothes on, and then do apple pies.
And I was like, dude, what are you doing.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
I rejected him, and it was awkward because he was
like trying to put his pants or whatever.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
But you're like, no, I take that.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I wasn't going to go.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
I was gonna stay and eat the apple pie.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Wait, so then I had to go. I can't remember why.
I think I walked out of the room. I was like,
I'll let you get dressed whatever.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Came back in and he'd eat his apple and he
was eating mine, and I was like, I guess I'll
go home then.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
So you didn't get laid and you got no apple pie.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
I didn't want to get laid. I just wanted some
fucking apple pie. It didn't happen.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
The end, we really had some good archive stories.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
I know, I know, okay, hold on, this is not
that strange, but I just want you to put yourself
in this situation.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
You're on a first date with a guy and he's
doing this.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
This guy just kept on picking up random objects, pretending
that they were a phone and saying hello mom what No,
he's not well.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
To be fair.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
When I make the mummy issues that clear doing you
a favor.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
And the last time I want to add it.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
And I love this one because most of the worst
first date stories we receive is because people have experienced
terrible dates.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Most of the time people don't admit.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
That they are the terrible date. So I really enjoyed
this one. She wrote, this is one's too long for
a little question box. I got so drunk on a
first date. I passed out locked in the pub bathroom
in London. He had to get the staff to break
me out. I woke up freezing in his jumper, completely mortified,
and decided the next day that I really just need
to do the mature thing.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
So I went to his house.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
I returned the jumper, I apologized, and for some reason
that I still can't fully explain, I gave him a blowjob.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I never heard from him again. Why are we like this?
Oh my god, a pity blow for being there.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Well, it is time for us suck in our suite.
I'll highlight and I'll lowla of the week, Laura, you
kick it off while I think of money.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I love it when again, when you come to records prepared.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Okay, So my suck for the week is I am
having some strong feelings towards my husband at the moment,
which it last full not just filled with like pregnancy
hormonal rage at the moment as well. So it kind
of like, unfortunately he just cops the front of it.
But I can't be too mad at him because I've
just been away for five days and he's like done
(36:55):
the full load of parenting however.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
With his mum though true, and.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
He also is the reason that you're pregnant. I do
blame them for that.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Yeah, you did this to me, No, but do you
guys remember I was talking about ages ago, about how
I was really struggling with the girl's sleep and how
Lola was still getting into our bed every night, and
how we kind of created this reward system chart thing
like because their kids are so fucking motivated by stickers.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
They're so motivated by stickers.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
So it was like, my number one goal was to
get both kids to sleep in their own bed before
this baby arrives. Because I'm a really light sleeper. I
don't sleep well when they're in bed with us. And
it doesn't affect Matt because he's a really heavy sleeper.
He could literally sleep with Maley mate across his face.
She'll like climb on top of him and sleep across
his body and he will not wake up whereas like
(37:43):
if they're in the bed with us and there's they're
wiggling around, I am wide awake.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
I also think it's a mom thing. Mums are just
more in tuned in case something is totrong, Like you
hear more in the house.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Do you know that there's so there is like a
biological thing that changes, like a chemical reaction that happens
in your brain in it that you go into labor
and you give birth, like the hormone release and everything
changes something in your brain, which means that you're never
able to get as deeply into your sleep again like
you are forever. Like as a mum, you're chemically changed
that you are on high.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Alert never having kids. This is devastating.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
It changes like Marley or Lola could make the slashes
rustle in their bed or a little moan or something
because they're having a dream and I wake up and
I hear that sense.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
You're the protector. You're the person that grew them, birth them,
and your job is to be the protector. Like the
pretector just sleeps. So what's what are you angry?
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Have been next to me?
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Okay, So the problem is is because he can sleep
so fine, with the kids in the bed. He doesn't
enforce the sleeping rules, like he doesn't enforce the rewards chart.
And over the last couple of weeks, we've had like
a lot of things happening where we haven't been sticking
to our schedule, like we went to cans, we've been away,
we're down the coast, and then with me away, so
(38:58):
me away for five nights, the kids have slept in
bed with him every single night, which means so the
night I got.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Home from the trade show, I got three and a
half hour sleep. That was it. Last night I had
about maybe five hours sleep.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
And I feel as though I'm the only one that's
the bad cop when it comes to sleeping in your
own bed.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
And so I'm feeling a little bit like.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
You got to have my bad Yeah, I'm feeling frustrated
because I'm like, we just worked so hard to get
them to that point and now we're seven weeks of
having a baby, and it's all of that good work
is completely undone.
Speaker 5 (39:28):
And YEAHTA say, You've got to be in my parenting experience,
you do have to be like consistent part with each
other when you're making these decisions, like because you just
unravel it very quickly.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Yeah, and like you know, it doesn't take long to
form a habit with kids, but also it doesn't take
long to undo a habit with kids. So now we're
back to like last night was six wake ups because
three for Mala, three for Lola was every forty five
minutes was a wake up because one of them needed
something or wanted one of us in their bed or anyway.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I got to the end of it and I was like,
you you live in a fix.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Throw away kid.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
So I came here quite frustrated this morning. Anyway, that's
my suck. But my sweet is is that I was
away for five nights and I have not had the like,
the quality of sleep that I had in those five
nights was the best that it's ever been. I went
about at like nine o'clock every night. I woke up
at seven point thirty. I reckon I had like one
(40:24):
slight little rustle during the nighttime.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
That was it. Like, it was just incredible.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
This, though, proves that the issue is not happening.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
It's Madden and the girls. Oh, I know, it's well
INVENTI five.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
We were confused by that, kysh.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
But also like it's not the kids. They're not getting
good sleep either, so like it's sucks.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Beat it as much. Kids don't like, Yes, they'll be feral,
but they can still function. They function fairoughly. Like when
you are running your life and you're growing a baby,
you're already tight and you're not sleeping, it's like you
can't function.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
No, the problem is they don't like they're so anyone
who has kids who like knows when they're sleep deprived,
like they're just feral and they're not happy and they
cry about everything and it's tantrum.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
So it's like it ruins everyone's days.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
I don't feel like that's for kids.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
That's me.
Speaker 6 (41:10):
Sometimes I cry when I really really trum, like three
times a week when.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
She has and then she realized, I'm just tied.
Speaker 3 (41:15):
We call them minty bees. Now, okay, and you're.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Sweet, Well, that's my sweet sweet week.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
My suck was my sleep and my sweet is my
sweet my sweep I showed you as well.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Suck is sleep and sweet is sleep.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
This is my favorite sucking sweet you've ever brought.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
I would like this podcast to specifically be asleep podcast.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
My suck was My sucking Sweet is pretty similar, but
My suck was I was away for a couple of
days on the Gold Coast, visiting Sherry and the fam,
and it rained non stop here apparently in Sydney. And
I know this because I got back, and Laura, you'll
know this because we lived in the same house. The
backyard of our house.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Our house.
Speaker 3 (41:52):
It was built terribly. It wasn't built to drain.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
It has one tiny little drain, but it fills with
sticks and leaves.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
And it's also single enough so the rain doesn't run
into it.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
So you came home to a flood.
Speaker 3 (42:03):
No afterlood, Delilah's Kendel underwater. She no longer has a home.
Everything flooded. It was almost coming into my house. And
that's like when you get back at eleven pm at
night because my flight was delayed, the last thing you
want to do is be like bucketing out water in
the rain outside anyway.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
So that was my suck.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
My suite was the same thing. I was in the
Gold Coast with Sherry and Jay and Maya, and I'm
just trying to get up there as much as possible
now because I have a sneaky suspicion my sister Sherry
might end up moving back over to the UK. So like,
if you guys follow along, you'll know that Sherry's been
living over in the UK for a couple of years
with her husband.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
She just moved back.
Speaker 3 (42:37):
I just have a feeling that they're going to head
back there in the future, so I'm just trying to
get as much time with him as possible. But it
was really wholesome. The Gold Coast was incredible weather. Sorry,
Keisha A Keisha had Deliah here in the rain for
a week. I was just like running around in the sun.
But we played paddle tenners, having working dogs in back
to back days of rain.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Isn't I mare so much?
Speaker 7 (42:58):
In a raincoat and it's a shark, it's got a fit,
it's way too big for It's the only one they had,
And I was like, this is awful. It literally, I
mean for people around your South Wales was apparently it's.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Most of the coast.
Speaker 7 (43:10):
It just poured with rain for four or five days straight,
didn't stop.
Speaker 3 (43:14):
No relief. Perfect timing wasn't planned.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
I was more laughing at BRIT's And you found love
for like paddle and paddle tennis.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
I love like you're mad for it.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
I'm mad for paddle.
Speaker 7 (43:24):
She's really competitive. We played in Bali just before her wedding.
When I got you got a hit in the face.
Yeah that was bad, but brit is super competitive.
Speaker 2 (43:32):
What's that other one that everyone's talking pickle ball.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
I'm not team pickle I'm definitely team paddle. They're very
different things, but.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Like waters with like things like squashed metato, Like everything
comes around back and around in fashion, doesn't it Like squash, pickaball, paddable,
all of these things, like the stuff that the old
people used to do all the eighties and now it's
back in paddle is giving.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
Squash on steroids because it's in a glass box and
it's this but it's you don't play against a wall,
but you can play off a wall.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
Right, so that squash squashes a glass box as well
or glassy last wall.
Speaker 7 (44:05):
I think it's not as hard as tennis as well,
so like, yeah, it's more accessible for people.
Speaker 3 (44:10):
Oh, because every age plays like you can be eighty
and have an injury and play because the balls will
always bounce.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Back to you. Isn't squashed just against a wall?
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Like you play with two people, yes, and it can
bounce off any wall and you both have to run around.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
Yeah, so this is you're playing like tennis. It's like
doubles tennis. So you're playing each other on a mini
tennis court, but you're in a giant glass box and
the ball can It doesn't matter if you miss it
and you're not quick enough to get it, because you
just turn around because you know it's going to bounce
up and come back to you, and then you.
Speaker 1 (44:37):
Just hit it back over.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
I remember being a kid of the eighties, my mum
would go and play squash and we would sit and
watch her smack a ball around in front.
Speaker 3 (44:43):
Of the black Yeah. My parents will squashes as well,
and they also did theater. Anyway, Okay, let's get out
of here.

This episode was recorded on cameragle Land. Hi guys, and
welcome back to another episode of Life I Cut, I'm Laura,
I'm Brittany.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
And Brittany No, don't worry about the weekends.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Let's talk about Dance with the Stars.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Do you know what I want to say? The first
off the bat I never want to hear that thing
song again.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
D d no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You know why because you hear it so many times
when you're actually filming it as well, then you watch
your back and then you play it here, and then
you're getting promos, and I just it's stuck in my
head all night. I laid away going thinking about all
my greatest life mistakes. It's like, where did I go wrong?
Why did I lose? Why do I suck?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Do you feel like it's the end of a chapter now?
Because you filmed it so long ago? It's so long ago.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I forgot I did it. Someone was like, oh, the
finale tonight I'm watching. I was like, what finale?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
That were like?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Dance it would starts.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
I was like, oh, were starting January, guys, as that's
a bit of a behind the scenes I started on
January six, fish, I think, and twenty twenty five and
then you finish now, which is August.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
It's kind of similar when you think about like the
filming and recording schedules of Batch or they used to
be back in the day, because they used to you
would start filming in February filming, We'll go for three months,
and then it wouldn't finish on TV until the end
of September. Yeah, so end of September is when like
that was like literally your entire year was eaten up
by reality TV show. Yeah, this is eight months and
I feel like it's confusing. So we all watched last night.
(01:41):
Oh yeah, I was amazing. I were amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I was at home in my pajamas with Delilah, eating
a pasta of course, and I was watching finale and
I put stories up and I didn't realize, because we've
spoken about it before that it's pre recorded. But I
didn't realize how many people didn't know, because my inbox
was flooded with people that didn't understand. They're like, hang on,
I don't get it. It's supposed to be a live
audience vote. You're at home, but let's walk you through it.
(02:06):
So it's pre recorded. But we genuinely didn't know the endings,
So what they do is you pre record two different
endings with two different winners. So I knew that I
wasn't in the final two. I knew you, I knew
I sucked. I knew I couldn't win. I cried, I
dealt with it. I moved on.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I cry.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
I was pretty fucking devoted. I have never worked harder
at something in my life, not my relationship, like I
worked harder on my relationship with Craig on Dancing with
the Stars. Do you know why? Because I think I'm
very realistic. I'm an optimistic but realistic person, and so
I always am able to know where I sit, and
I'm pretty good at reading a room, and I always
(02:47):
knew that. I was like, do you know what, I
think I'm good enough to get to the semi or
the final. But I didn't ever think I was going
to win in that first couple of weeks. And then
as we were cruising through and I was getting like
top scores every week and I was doing really well,
I thought, oh my god, maybe I actually could And
I started to think that I could make the top two.
And that's why you don't dream big kids, No, they ripped.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
The carpet out from it, because you can inflated sense
of himself and then for disappointment, nothing but disappointment.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Exactly, because if you don't dream that big, you can
only be like impressed or excited or you know, when
something better happens. But if you think that it's tangible,
you could have made the And this is what I
kept saying to Craig. He kept saying, you can win, Brittany,
and I said, don't say that, because then I'll be
disappointed if I don't. I was like, I need to
(03:37):
think that I can't.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
I need to think I'm pathetic and then be pleasantly
over me, treat me bad.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Craig never spattered me.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
It kind of reminds me of like the Podcast Awards.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
We won three years in a row and then after
that were like, oh it really hurts.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
We're still caring. I don't care anymore whatever, That's not true.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
But then we won a different award that year. But no,
I guess at the end, I was like, you know what,
I think I was going into the finale with the
one of the top scores or having the top score,
so I thought, wow, I'm going to dance my little
heart out. Some things went down that one day I
will tell you about one day in the future. Now
maybe next year when it dies down. But I didn't win.
I sucked, didn't make the top two. They actually gave
(04:23):
me one of the bottom scores, which.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
It was harsh.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
I thought that was harsh.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
You didn't suck, you were amazing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
But the thing is, though, it's like any reality show,
if you're an obvious, clear winner or you're like a
front runner, you never end up winning the finale.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It rarely happens because they want the bait and switch,
they want the audience.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
I remember to be unsure, you know, like it's just
part and parcel of it. So like, you know, but
this is dancing, okay, but in terms of Dancing with
the Stars, like you know, you've had the most recent
experience of it. But like Matt did it, I did
a few years back. It's not like it's not a
real TV show. You It's to be fair.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Though, what's the guy's name he won?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Kyle? Fuck?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
He was good. He was That's what he deserved to win.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Kyle was amazing. He's If you didn't see the dance,
you need to watch it. Was pretty spectacular. He like
went into his indigenous heritage and it was a beautiful
dance to his culture. He played the digital do at
the start, and he was very talented, like and his
dance partner Lily is incredible, and so together they were flawless.
Like they literally got forty out of forty. They got yeah,
(05:27):
but they also got that last week too, Like they
they are very good Kyle. Kyle is a dancer. He's
a trained dancer, so he was always going to have
the moves and like he's got the technique and so
given the right environment, he had a beautiful partner, like
that dance was a ten. It was a perfect ten,
and so he got the win in the end, and
(05:49):
it was well deserved.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Now that every single person here has gone through doing
Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
You're up next, keysh If I.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
Was on it and I killed it, I was just
like guys switching criz. You were a winner in all
of our eyes. And I actually will say I was
there for the taping of the finale and my days
it was a long.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Night, like a really long night. I think it was about.
Speaker 7 (06:10):
Five and a half hours in total, like from ware
to go, and because if you're in the audience, and
if you're in kind of sight, you're not able to
leave when they're filming, so you've kind of got to
stay in place.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
The whole time.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
By the end of it, I was like, Britt, you've
been kicked out. I just want to leave. But that
is a really good indication of why they can't do
it live. So a lot of people ask why these
shows can't be live. It's too hard, Like you would
have to be the most incredible, well oiled machine with
nothing to go wrong to make that life. And it
was really hard, and it's why they had to change it.
Because if you think like every single person in terms
(06:42):
of the audience, the crew, the judges, the dancers, you
need to be to the point that you cannot be
a minute late. You cannot make mistakes. They can't be
a fault with lighting, they can't be a fault with music,
with cameras, because when you cut from an odd break
in your life, everything needs to be ready to go,
and too much shit happened.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
The thing is, though, I mean, and it's kind of
the way that freeda ATV's gone in general. It's not
that they can't do it it's just more expensive and there's
no money left in terms of like the same money
that used to exist six years ago, and free to
AIRTV does not exist. It's the same for things like
I'm a Celebrity to get me out of here. They
film two endings now and it feels really anticlimactic when
you're doing it, because you know, when it was our
(07:19):
season a few years back, you literally pretend like one
person's one and in our case it was Emily, we
are and then you pretend like the other person's one.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
They come out and they like vacuum up the configurate
and then you do it and then you do it again.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
We did the same thing for the Jungle finale with
Matt It was like literally they had three finalists and
we did a finale for every single finalist. And so
the one part though that I do think is a
bit of a peak behind the curtains is you can
actually vote up until the minute that they play the winner.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
So like the voting is live, that's real.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
No one knows what the end result is, but you
know it's between two people, you know it's between three people.
So with Dancing with the Stars last night, it was
between Sean macrliffe and.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Kyle from Home and Away.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
It could have been either of their races right up
until the end, so no one they didn't even know.
It's anti climactic for the person who wins because they're
at home watching it on TV. They're not there in
the moment. It all happened months ago.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Sean's one of the funniest people I've met. He's also
one of the most intelligent people.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
He was a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
He got into like this career quite late, like he
had a real change into comedy. He's just a very
highly intelligent, highly funny person and he's not going to
be offended to hear me say this. It was absolutely
not the best dancer, but it's not about being the
best dancer. He was so entertaining and that's what people love.
Like if you can get out there and perform. At
the end of the day, it's just as much about
(08:38):
like what you give on stage as your technique, and
he didn't have a lot of techniques. He brought the
humor and I love him for it, but that's you know,
he definitely got there as like a whole package. But
bless him. But anyway, Dance with Stars Finale over. You
guys never have to hear us talk about it again.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I feel like you've been full.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
It's been like a peak week Dancing with the Stars
finale you had Logis like we had very different weekends.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
We've had very different lives recently.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
So I'm not even I just feel I feel, I
said to Cash the other day, I've blown my load
in this last two months. It's too much weddings, dancing
with the stars, like multiple weddings, dancing with the stars,
the logis, everything else has been going.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I was like, it's Britta's just lying in bed with
the chowel and content come all over.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
It's all I.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I don't have anything for the rest of the year.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
How are the logis?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Does anyone care about the Logis? We have this conversation
every year. I mean we care obviously because we go,
But I genuinely wonder what people care about. I think
it's mainly the fashion, to be honest, which sucks, because
people should care about, you know, our entertainment industry and
the amazing people on our screens. That's what the logis is.
But I have a sneaky suspicion most people are just
checking it out for the fashion.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Do you know what I do care about that?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
There was like the reality TV category, so it was
like Married at First Sight, Farmer Wants a Wife, Dancing
with the Stars, Guess who won?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Have a guess?
Speaker 5 (09:57):
I know.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
No, you can't say it because you were there. I
know because I watch it on TV.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
You have to give all the otherwise you can't guess
if you don't give it the options.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
So that the category was best structured reality program right
and best structure.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
No one knows what structured me.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I think it's I think it's like the flow of
the show, how the show works, the mechanism of the show.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Because there was another There were other reality TV categories,
but this one was structured reality. So I don't really
get that.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
But anyway, can okay?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Well things were the finalists Farmer Wants a Wife, goggle
Box Australia, Married at First Site, Mustard Dogs, Collies and Kelpies,
Shark Tank Australia, The Real Housewives of Sydney.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I've only gotting the finalist one.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
I'm only gezing this because you guys alluded to the
fact it was the Dog.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Movie's like when Matt lost to a cat at the.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Content It's pretty similar. It's pretty similar on Real Housewives
and being like, sorry, are you telling me I lost
to a dog? I lose to him, didn't Dance with
the Stars.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Imagine being on Married at First Site, the biggest reality
show in Australia.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
It's streamed international that Gana's the most views and has
watched like tenfold in the UK.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And No, and you lose to muster Dogs Collins in
Kelpy's ABC. Even the people at the table when you
saw it on TV were like the fuck.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
The most disappointing part was that I was stoked I
picked it because we were guessing it as they're going.
But the dog wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
The muster dogs were there.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
It was really It's really good show. Though they show
like kiss you'd love it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
They have the dogs unsubscribes.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
They have the dogs learning how to muster on a
farm like we sent Elilah on it. Yet no, she
would have time to shine. She can't do anything. She
kind of sit. Tyla is not a muster dog. She's
never worked a day to life. But yeah, that was
a bit of a throughstpanner in the works. But back
to the fashion, I think that's what people care about,
right I don't think anyone's tuning in to find out
(11:46):
a muster Dog's one. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I think Peter does tickle me, to be fair, Yeah,
but I think it's an old school demographic of people
who really care about the actual awards. Like Ellie, my
mother in law, sat there and watched the whole Logis.
I think, from like our generation or even like your
younger generations, the things that we're clicking on when it
comes to the articles and the new sites and whatever
is the content or media that's coming out of it
is the best stress list and what do people wear
(12:10):
or what people doing on the red carpet, or it's
the little bits of social grabs that go up on Instagram,
which is like celebrities being interviewed by people. I think,
like that's the stuff. It's when it comes to the
actual show itself. I mean, Sampang's opening monologues are always amazing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Look, the only other award that I will talk about
or give an honorable mention to is the Gold LOGI
so like the big main award that everyone there wants
in your career, and it was given to Lynn McGranger,
who is Irene on Home and Away. So she's just
such everyone knows that. You don't have to have watched
Home and Away to know are Irene has been a
staple in Australian TV. She has to be one of,
(12:46):
if not besides Alf like the longest running TV series actor.
I think that we've got on our screen. I think
she's only a Home and Away for about thirty three
years playing that character. So like she' leen is Irene,
Irene is Lynn.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
She's been on there so long that they've written her
out with dementia.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Yeah, they're writing her out with her storylines dementia, and
I know it's so beautiful anyway, she's won.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
You know that you've really expired your character when they're like,
we can't kill her off.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
We'll just make it forget everything. Here we go. I
watched it at home. No one will visit her. Sorry,
that's true. That's true. Actually really mean, Laura, that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
People still visit people with dementia.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Storyline all that.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
If it makes me sound intensitive, it does, keep it
because you've got personal experience.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
And I'm like, it's less insensitive.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Because you've lived it.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I know, I'm joking. It comes from trauma. Guys.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
My nan had dementia and was in the hospital for
a long time and we laughed and we visited her
all the time. But it was really sad seeing the
amount of people who were in homes who did not
get visited throughout dementia.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
But that's why I think it's a great storyline, because
it's actually so relatable to the percentage of people in
Australia have family members going through it. And I watched
I don't watch Home and Away like I used to.
Does I watched it last the UK?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yes, but like, how does that affect Australian red It
rates so well in Australia, yet I cannot find a
single person who watches it.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
I don't it's a particular demo. It's I think it's
more of the younger demographic, to be honest. I watched
it when I was younger a lot like like, I
loved it and all my friends did. But I guess
I just grow out of it. But I watched it
last night because it was before the finale of Dance
with Stars, so it was on TV. First time I've
watched it in years, and I was crying at the
(14:24):
storyline of Lynn, like because her storyline goes over a
couple of weeks and it was so well played, and
maybe because I'd seen her acceptance speech the night before
and I saw how much it meant to her and
it was really cool.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, she's amazing. Do you know what? Though?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
It does make me feel sad for what seems to
be like a bit of a pattern when it comes
to the logis and also like Australian recognition in media.
So like Grant Dania got a Gold LOGI his show
was no longer an Air. Lynn McGranger Gold LOGI she's retired.
It seems to be like once people have like finally
got to the end of their careers, they were like.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Oh, well done.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Well yeah, I'm not going out at the top, right,
But I I did have a and I've got to
clue myself like single girl problems. But I'm a single girl, right.
I'm technically married, but I live a single life. So
when I say single girl problems, it's because my life
a lot of any single I'm not dating, not sleeping
with people, but I live alone. So we were at
(15:17):
the Logies and on the way home, I had to
politely ask you your husband to undress me, Laura and
the Uber.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
So I got a message from out yesterday.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I'm aware at work we're doing radio and he just says, oh,
if you need content, I had to undo BRIT's dress
last night in the car, and I was like, so
many parts of this, I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I was like, firstly, I didn't even.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Know that you went home with Brits, so like what
And I was like, home, Like I didn't know that
you shared.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I don't care. Oh my god, I don't care. I
didn't know you shared leep over.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Why did you walk in the door at five am?
That sticking at brit sequence is that the Lila's hair? No,
So we going the Uber right, And like Laura and
Matt and myself, obviously we live pretty close to each other,
the same suburb.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I do still live with my husband.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Things are going on, yes, and I live in their
old house. So I was like, would make sense to
go home together. So We're in the Uber on the
way home, and just as I'm about to get out,
like wear both in the back and the Uber drivers
on the front obviously driving, and so just I'm about
to get out, I have this realization because it has
happened to me too many times that I'm not going
to be able to get out of my dress. It
was like a zip all the way to my neck
(16:27):
that went really load to my butt crack, and it
was a very tight sequin dress. And I was like,
oh my god, if I go inside, I'm not gonna
be able to I'm to sleep like planking in a
sequin dress.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
And they come out in the morning, find some jogger
to undo your dress.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
So I'm like, hey, sorry, do you mind undoing my dress?
And I can see the Uber driver's eyes like click
up to the review mirror and Matt's like now and
I'm like yeah, it's like I just won't be able
to get out of it. So you hear this. It's
just silent it just a little bit. And I turned
back around. I can see the Uber driver looking and
like darting away, and I was like, Matt, I was like,
(17:02):
it needs to be more, don't be shy. He's like loah.
I like, because I tried to put my arm open
reach it, He's like all the way and I was
like all the way and I was like all the
way to my butt crack, and then I was like,
thank you, Loub. I was like, what the actual fuck?
And he's like, are you leaving to Matt. Matt's like, no,
I'm going home. I'm knocking out with her.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Because I've got a really pregnant wife at home.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Then I'm running down the street because once you take
the dress off to the bart, it will slip off
your shoulders right like it was like a low cut
and I didn't have brown. So I'm just running down
my street now with my dress falling off my shoulders,
just holding my boobs.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
But by Matt, thank you, Like just doing me a solid.
That's how you know you've got a real friend.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
It's happened to me before where i haven't been able
to do my dress up for an event and I
have gone and just waited in my lobby of my apartment.
I'm not kidding. I've just stood there at the door
and I wait for someone to come out. I'm like,
I'm so sorry, do you mind Because I've got like
twelve neighbors or something. I don't want to knock on
their door and ask them to do it. That's weird.
But if you just linger hovering in the lobby.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Also weird.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
There's all versions, but I understand, I understand the necessity.
We had very different weekends this weekend, so Britt was
at Logis.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I didn't go, like.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Twofold one, I didn't want this. I didn't want to
have to try and find a dress.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
You're not pregnant. Bellies in beautiful dresses are amazing.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
But all designers and this is you know, I understand why,
but it's hard. Designers only make dresses in sample sizes
they really do. Like everything's a size eight, it's a
size ten. It's really hard to find stuff when your
bodies are really odd shape, like people are not making
maternity sample sizes.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
So I was like, I don't want to really have
to go through that.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
And also we had this trade show in Melbourne for
Tony May and it was like a wholesale trade show
where you I don't know if anyone does not in
the world. It's like we obviously sell retail, but then
like you go and you do these trade shows where
you selling to other boutiques that can come and stock
your brand.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Right.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
One thing I want to say, I have always been
and I'm so I feel embarrassed to say it now.
I've always been like a Melbourne poo pooor I've always
sat on the Sydney elitism.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
You know, careful that I know, and I know it's controversial.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And I say this because Melbourne has better restaurants, it
has better coffee, it has better everything a night. I've
lived in both, but I love I love the beach,
so like I will always kind of like gravitate to
that option.
Speaker 7 (19:10):
I guess, do you guys remember Sarry Davidson's really viral
video where she compared Melbourne and City and she said
that Melbourne's the less hot sister.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yeah, but more interesting sister.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Yeah, had to develop a personality one hundred because it
didn't have the harbor and the beautiful beaches.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
The beaches in Melbourne. I know everyone is like, we
do have beaches.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
I think maybe I've like reached that point.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
You know, when you're in your twenties and like when
you're no, maybe when you're like eighteen nineteen, and you
prioritize hotness. That's what happens, right, So when you're young,
you prioritize hot like you'll date the hot chick or
the hot guy.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
That's really dumb, just because they're so fucking hot.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
The enigmatized, but then as you get older, you'd rather
a less hot person.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
That's interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
So I think I've had a full like revelation to Melbourne.
I'm not moving to Melbourne, but I.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Really two point zero Melbourne, Shanta to Melbourne.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
What's a sp to Melbourn? Fuck whatever? What to do next?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Was beautiful, Like the weather was amazing. We ate at
the such nice restaurants, like none of them super expensive
or anything.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Just the food was so good. The weight stuff was
so nice.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Going out for dinners in Sydney, you feel as though
you feel as are the weight stuff are doing you
a favor. These people actually seem like they're enjoying their job.
Like it was just I have loved it. Yeah, it's
such a great time. Everywhere is such a vibe there
so that everyone does love it. They love going to
work because it's their socialization as well. It's Sydney definitely
has a lot to answer for. Yeah, I agree, you
were off like looking beautiful and I was standing in
(20:36):
a trade show booth like hocking my jewels.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
And I said it so many for what take you
back to BONDOI Markets?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Literally it really did, like, it's quite a nice good
life and style. So if you're a brand and you're
like trying to get into more wholesalers or whatever, like
it's a great.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
One to do. We've done it for years.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
But I kept on making the joke that I kept
on saying, I'm here to hock my jewels, and like,
obviously stockist or stock and hock very similar. So I'm
there talking to the woman who's like from a really
big department store brand, like it's all we're doing it proper,
you know, I'm trying to.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Wheel and deal.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I'm trying to sell some jewels here, and I just
kept on saying howk instead of stock. So I was like, so, yeah,
if you want to hawk Tony May, and I said
it four times without realizing.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
This woman just looked to me like, fuck, you've lost
the plot.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Like maybe we'll stock it. So do you know by
the end of the trade show who your new stock are.
So it's not like you take your car and you
think about it and they come back to you.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Some of those happen, but a lot of people just
place orders on store, so like you know what's coming
in and so you can kind of like so successful.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Yeah, it's really successful, thank you, thank you so much. Anyway,
moving to Melbourne and now howk am my jewels?
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Something we talked about on last week's episode though, guys
and I have been sitting on these because I've enjoyed
it so much. We talked about how it's been a
really long time since we've done first date stories. Right,
so first day used to be or first date stories,
your disaster stories used to be such a core part
and integral part of life on Cut and somewhere along
the line, I think it was because brit stopped dating,
(22:03):
we stopped having first date stories to tell.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
I apologize. I know you like fell.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
In love and then your life got so wholesome and
then we realized we had to reach out to the brains,
trust you guys and get your most recent fucked up
dating stories, and you came through with the goods.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Let me tell you, well, do you know what?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I'll kickstart with the story my friend told me yesterday
and it's not necessarily worse date, but she goes, is
this weird? She's like, I just went on a first date.
We hung out, we had a drink, bye to eat,
and then he messaged me and said I'd love to
see you again. So she's like, oh, okay. He calls
her on the phone for the second date and invites
her to the opera house with his ex wife to
(22:43):
watch his daughter's dance recital. No, and she goes to me,
is this too much?
Speaker 1 (22:48):
And I was like yes, unsubscribe, unsubscribed.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Also, in that sort of environment, you feel as though
you're being used as a porn to meet the ex wife.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Jealous, that's what that feels like.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
It feels like he's going to want to move in
with you in a week.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
No, I don't even lex from him. It's loaded.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
But also I kind of think that that's shitty dad
behavior because like that's what I say.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
It says not about you or your ex wife.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
It's your daughter's dance rehearsal, recital, whatever it is firstly,
and then you're making it about you because you're bringing
someone else. There'll be a bit of drama. You know,
the ex wife will feel as though like, oh that
was a surprise. There was no, you're a shitty dude.
I totally block and delete. Okay you shut Okay, you
guys came through with the goods. There were so many
horrific date stories. If you have also been on a
terrible date, please send them through to us, all right.
(23:29):
First one, so, he told me that he doesn't want
any kids of his own. This is date one, but
that he donates his sperm often and thinks he'd be
really popular choice.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
I wonder if there's any datam a back that up.
If it's just vibe, I don't know, I just popular.
On our third date, he told me that he was
previously engaged to his stepsister. No. Sorry, Also, you don't
help him.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
No, that's an opt in. You could say I was
once engaged. It didn't work out. He picked me up
blasting eminem on a subwoofer, and then made me meet
his mom.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
That's giving mom seventeen No, that's giving seventeen people. Later,
I was giving seventeen people.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I think you don't think he was. She definitely looks
like she's in her thirties. We spoke about his tadpole collection. Sorry, oh, I'm.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Shot into that. I used to collect tadpoles. Yeah, when
you were five, guppy, So you can't collect them for
long because they turned into frogs and they around. I'm
gon dine in the sun.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Really, what This was you, wasn't it. Someone went on
a date with you.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I collected the guppies you got me?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
He said he was a trady, but he never spoke
much about it. Turns out he was a treaty of drugs.
He was a drug dealer. Oh, he traded trade for money.
Just said he was a tree. That's pretty smart.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
His laugh.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
This guy grabbed my double chin and shook it and
said this is really cute.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
So bad. Yeah, but he just gave it a little shake.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
I once had a guy who was kissing my inner thigh.
He stood up and then said, yeah, just knock yourself out,
myself in the face with my laps. Can we get
a slow mol on that nest?
Speaker 1 (25:25):
His dog ate my underwear whilst we were having set.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
We can't just go past someone me owing?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Sorry? Sorry?
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Is that because he's near a pussy?
Speaker 1 (25:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Is he method active like he's looking at in a thiet?
Imagine that someone looks up and you goes.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
What I don't even know how to?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
All right, Okay, he was on an ecstasy and I
found out because he tried to offer me the other
half of his pill.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
He said it was nice to share. Imagine rocking up
on a first day. Yeah, but I mean that's.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Pretty presumptuous to think that a first date. And then
she went into more details and said it was a
walking date.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Off the back of that, I can't find it. So
I just not forbade him. She was on a date
with him and she saw him popping pills, so if
she asked for one, but it was his cystic fibrosis pill.
She thought it was like a pill. He's like, you
can't have my medication.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Like, hey, guys, this was a legit first date, and
I don't think it gets more out of control. So
I was on a first date and I had a
guy show me a picture of his poo that he
did that morning because he was so excited.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
It was in the shape of a Nike dick.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
No, that's not true. That can't be true.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Just do it.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
No one is trying to get laid by showing a
woman their term.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Maybe it didn't go well. Maybe he was actually trying
to tell off.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
He asked me if I was wearing any underwear, and
I said what, and he goes, because you're about to
be fucking dacked. I don't know when you're a kid,
you know how you put on fans down. I'd be like, what, sorry,
excuse me. This one we were out of pub. This
guy cut off all the batter from me, schnitty the chicken,
and then he ate the better. I think it's fine
(27:04):
that wander together.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I read that, though, and I was like, it's like
when people eat their pizza in lace. I ate my
pizza in layers, or I eat my pie in layers.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Yeah, fine, you eat a deconstructed pie. He had a
deconstructed Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
I know it's weird.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
I know it's weird, but like people have weird food versions,
I wouldn't be judging him completely.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I would judge this guy though.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
A guy told me on the first date that if
I didn't have sex with him daily, I would need
to be okay with him wanking.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Hey man's got boundaries.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
This guy showed me how to edit my legs in
my beach photo to make them look better.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
He was showing her the apps to use.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Oh my god, Okay, I got robbed.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
That was it.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
I asked him back to my place and he stole everything. No,
that's a pretty bad first date.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
That's a pretty bad first date.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yeah, that's illegal.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I report, but it's also like not funny. Everyone sucks.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
If you woke up the next morning the guy's gone
and so he should TV, you'd.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Be really sad.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Where's my Before I had even met this man, he
figured out where I worked and sent me a present.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It was a vibrator to my office.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
I feel like that's a bit fifty shades a gray.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
It was like it was probably around that era. Brittany's
already laughing.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
A guy gave me a tiny book of poetry about
how amazing I am. It was our first date. We'd
never met. I don't make him like they used to.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
There's a lot of reasons why some people are single,
you know. Oh my gosh. Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
He told me that he was a penis puppeteer, but
work was low because of shrinkage in winter.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Okay, to be fair, that's a real job. I've been
to it. The puppeteers, the penis puppeteers. Have you seen it.
It's a stage show. Yeah, there's not a single part
of this that I don't need you to.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
Explain to me.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Puppetry of the penis. It's a stage show. It's like
a comedy show about men with their penises.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Wait, wasn't this on a cruise that you went on? Yeah? Yeah,
it was great.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It was fantastic, and I went I went on a
cruise ship to watch a puppetry penis show with my
mum and the guy was like using his bullsack to
keep the beat of a saxophone like rendition and it
was anyway, it was fantastic, real great percussions. Okay, this man,
which we have nothing against a ball king.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I just want to put that out there first.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
But if you didn't know the guy's bald because they'd
been faking it, then you might feel differently. This man
rocked up on a date and he'd been coloring in
the top of his head with texters, so he didn't
look bald. You know how you can get that scout
pigmentation stuff? Would you use if you have like maybe
like a thinning part or something. Not if you haven't
tied all this, there's a limit to how much it
(29:39):
can cover.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
He went hard.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
TEXTU just wear a hat or a beanie.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Or like just own it. But if you want to
cover it, you don't texture it. Imagine a permanent mark.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Okay, he said, not to worry because I had food
stuck in my braces. He then leant over close and
licked them.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
So what someone looks.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
On what should food stuck in embraces? And instead of
helping her get it out? The food in her braces?
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Wait, can I tell you a story of that?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
I'd love you too?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Makes me feel sick. That makes me feel sick. Licking
food out of someune's braces if fucking disgusting. Don't do it,
especially on the first eight. I will never forget. When
we're teenagers, my friend had this giant wart on the
end of her finger, and she was like a really good,
like state level touch footballer. This is gonna make me
feel sick. She ran, she got into a tackle, she
(30:34):
fell over, and they got into a tackle, and they
got up and there was all this blood on her
hand and her wart was gone. I guess where it
was in the girl's braces.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
No, I'm not joking.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I feel sick, I feel unwell. I'm dying anyway, the
braces and she's like the girl, blood dropping down her
face and stuff from the war in there because it
ripped it off. Okay, anyway, sorry, that's awful.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
This one's a tiny bit longer.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
When I was younger, before I had a license. I
went on a date with a guy that looked just
like the lead singer a Green Day Score. We met
at a train station and we were walking to the cinema.
Along the way, he got a phone call. He stops,
suddenly walks over to the nearby bin, pulls out a
plastic bag from his backpack, and puts it into the bin.
He's very calm. He then gets off of the phone
(31:21):
and doesn't say a thing. An hour later, he finally
tells me that his boss was pranking him and had
put a human shit in his bag.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
What the fuck? What a prank?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
What's wrong with man?
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Now?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Also, like, it's okay if it's your mate, but like
your boss can't do that.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It's like a mounce of power. Yeah, guys, you can't
do that again.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
If I shit and put a shit in your handbag
and you were going on a first date.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
I know men that would do this. Do you remember
when I was on a date? You guys might remember it,
but this is like three years ago.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Four years ago.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
I was on a date. Once we went out and
like whatever, I had coffee, it was nothing, and I
was gonna drop him home because he wasn't that far away,
and I was like, hey, I can drive you home.
It's fine, Like what, We're in the car and I
stopped at the stop light like a red light, and
he just got out and ran away. He got out
of the car and ran away the stop light at
the traffic light.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
You never saw him again.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
To this day, ruber no pretty saw him again. He's
still running and I was liker, has he's still running.
It was I've never had someone run of physically so
repulsed that they had to get out of the car
WHI was moving. I wasn't even stopped. It was like
coming to a stop. He's like Commando rolled out of
a moving car. I was like, do you have direct your.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Seatbelt behind your back? I reckon?
Speaker 3 (32:33):
But it was really quick he was he was preparing ready,
he was like this. It was going slowly. Then he
went seatbelt off out the door and I was like,
do we reckon? You have a girlfriend and he's seen
her or something? No, like he didn't want you to
drop him off at home to get out before To
this day, I'll never know.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
I dated this guy who told me that he loved camping.
He would go away every single weekend. Turns out he
was on detention weekend detention.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Oh he's not contactable.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Okay, this one's not funny. Went to a guy's house.
This is problematic. Went to a guy's house for dinner.
Didn't want to sleep with him, so he just sat
down and joked off in front of me.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
No, you need to leave.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
I can't believe what people are going through.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Yeah, but I think that especially when you're younger and
you're still in the people pleasing years, Like I would
have sat through that back in the day, but I've anymore.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Oh my god, that happened to me.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Warm apple parts.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
This is a story from the archives. Everyone but I went.
Didn't even go on a date with this guy. We
went out. I think we'd been at like a ted
X talk and he was kind of a friend. And
then it turned into dinner afterwards, which kind of was
a date, I guess, but not intentionally a date. And
then he was like, come back to my house. I've
got dessert. And I lived up the road for him.
He should have been a red plum.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Well I knew, I knew what he was. I was like, no,
I know better than this.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Laura thought, She goes I know what he wants, and
I don't want to do it, so I'll come back.
I knew what his plan was. Just give me a second. No.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
I was like, no, no, I'm not doing it away.
He was like, no, I legit, have apple pie at
my house. He's like, come back and have dessert.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
I was like, everything in my body is telling me
is a bad idea, but I'll do it anyway.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Bye and so anyway, and he did only live down
the road, so I was like, well, there's no apple pie.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I'll walk home. So I got to his house and
there was apple pie. It was great. So he gets
out of the apple pie.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
He's put it in the oven and stuff and he's
made these two bowls with ice cream.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Like this is lit. I'm gonna get apple pie.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
It's like, fuck yeah, I'm having apple pie. Anyway, I
had to go to the toilet, and tolet was like
at the back of the house. So I walked to
the back of the house go to the toilet. It
took me a little while.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I come back and he's fucking butt asked naked, sitting
there with no clothes on, and then do apple pies.
And I was like, dude, what are you doing.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
I rejected him, and it was awkward because he was
like trying to put his pants or whatever.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
But you're like, no, I take that.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
I wasn't going to go.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
I was gonna stay and eat the apple pie.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Wait, so then I had to go. I can't remember why.
I think I walked out of the room. I was like,
I'll let you get dressed whatever.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Came back in and he'd eat his apple and he
was eating mine, and I was like, I guess I'll
go home then.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
So you didn't get laid and you got no apple pie.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
I didn't want to get laid. I just wanted some
fucking apple pie. It didn't happen.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
The end, we really had some good archive stories.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
I know, I know, okay, hold on, this is not
that strange, but I just want you to put yourself
in this situation.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
You're on a first date with a guy and he's
doing this.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
This guy just kept on picking up random objects, pretending
that they were a phone and saying hello mom what No,
he's not well.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
To be fair.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
When I make the mummy issues that clear doing you
a favor.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
And the last time I want to add it.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
And I love this one because most of the worst
first date stories we receive is because people have experienced
terrible dates.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Most of the time people don't admit.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
That they are the terrible date. So I really enjoyed
this one. She wrote, this is one's too long for
a little question box. I got so drunk on a
first date. I passed out locked in the pub bathroom
in London. He had to get the staff to break
me out. I woke up freezing in his jumper, completely mortified,
and decided the next day that I really just need
to do the mature thing.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
So I went to his house.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
I returned the jumper, I apologized, and for some reason
that I still can't fully explain, I gave him a blowjob.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I never heard from him again. Why are we like this?
Oh my god, a pity blow for being there.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Well, it is time for us suck in our suite.
I'll highlight and I'll lowla of the week, Laura, you
kick it off while I think of money.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I love it when again, when you come to records prepared.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Okay, So my suck for the week is I am
having some strong feelings towards my husband at the moment,
which it last full not just filled with like pregnancy
hormonal rage at the moment as well. So it kind
of like, unfortunately he just cops the front of it.
But I can't be too mad at him because I've
just been away for five days and he's like done
(36:55):
the full load of parenting however.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
With his mum though true, and.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
He also is the reason that you're pregnant. I do
blame them for that.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Yeah, you did this to me, No, but do you
guys remember I was talking about ages ago, about how
I was really struggling with the girl's sleep and how
Lola was still getting into our bed every night, and
how we kind of created this reward system chart thing
like because their kids are so fucking motivated by stickers.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
They're so motivated by stickers.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
So it was like, my number one goal was to
get both kids to sleep in their own bed before
this baby arrives. Because I'm a really light sleeper. I
don't sleep well when they're in bed with us. And
it doesn't affect Matt because he's a really heavy sleeper.
He could literally sleep with Maley mate across his face.
She'll like climb on top of him and sleep across
his body and he will not wake up whereas like
(37:43):
if they're in the bed with us and there's they're
wiggling around, I am wide awake.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
I also think it's a mom thing. Mums are just
more in tuned in case something is totrong, Like you
hear more in the house.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Do you know that there's so there is like a
biological thing that changes, like a chemical reaction that happens
in your brain in it that you go into labor
and you give birth, like the hormone release and everything
changes something in your brain, which means that you're never
able to get as deeply into your sleep again like
you are forever. Like as a mum, you're chemically changed
that you are on high.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Alert never having kids. This is devastating.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
It changes like Marley or Lola could make the slashes
rustle in their bed or a little moan or something
because they're having a dream and I wake up and
I hear that sense.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
You're the protector. You're the person that grew them, birth them,
and your job is to be the protector. Like the
pretector just sleeps. So what's what are you angry?
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Have been next to me?
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Okay, So the problem is is because he can sleep
so fine, with the kids in the bed. He doesn't
enforce the sleeping rules, like he doesn't enforce the rewards chart.
And over the last couple of weeks, we've had like
a lot of things happening where we haven't been sticking
to our schedule, like we went to cans, we've been away,
we're down the coast, and then with me away, so
(38:58):
me away for five nights, the kids have slept in
bed with him every single night, which means so the
night I got.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Home from the trade show, I got three and a
half hour sleep. That was it. Last night I had
about maybe five hours sleep.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
And I feel as though I'm the only one that's
the bad cop when it comes to sleeping in your
own bed.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
And so I'm feeling a little bit like.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
You got to have my bad Yeah, I'm feeling frustrated
because I'm like, we just worked so hard to get
them to that point and now we're seven weeks of
having a baby, and it's all of that good work
is completely undone.
Speaker 5 (39:28):
And YEAHTA say, You've got to be in my parenting experience,
you do have to be like consistent part with each
other when you're making these decisions, like because you just
unravel it very quickly.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
Yeah, and like you know, it doesn't take long to
form a habit with kids, but also it doesn't take
long to undo a habit with kids. So now we're
back to like last night was six wake ups because
three for Mala, three for Lola was every forty five
minutes was a wake up because one of them needed
something or wanted one of us in their bed or anyway.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I got to the end of it and I was like,
you you live in a fix.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Throw away kid.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
So I came here quite frustrated this morning. Anyway, that's
my suck. But my sweet is is that I was
away for five nights and I have not had the like,
the quality of sleep that I had in those five
nights was the best that it's ever been. I went
about at like nine o'clock every night. I woke up
at seven point thirty. I reckon I had like one
(40:24):
slight little rustle during the nighttime.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
That was it. Like, it was just incredible.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
This, though, proves that the issue is not happening.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
It's Madden and the girls. Oh, I know, it's well
INVENTI five.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
We were confused by that, kysh.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
But also like it's not the kids. They're not getting
good sleep either, so like it's sucks.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Beat it as much. Kids don't like, Yes, they'll be feral,
but they can still function. They function fairoughly. Like when
you are running your life and you're growing a baby,
you're already tight and you're not sleeping, it's like you
can't function.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
No, the problem is they don't like they're so anyone
who has kids who like knows when they're sleep deprived,
like they're just feral and they're not happy and they
cry about everything and it's tantrum.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
So it's like it ruins everyone's days.
Speaker 3 (41:05):
I don't feel like that's for kids.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
That's me.
Speaker 6 (41:10):
Sometimes I cry when I really really trum, like three
times a week when.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
She has and then she realized, I'm just tied.
Speaker 3 (41:15):
We call them minty bees. Now, okay, and you're.
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Sweet, Well, that's my sweet sweet week.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
My suck was my sleep and my sweet is my
sweet my sweep I showed you as well.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Suck is sleep and sweet is sleep.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
This is my favorite sucking sweet you've ever brought.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
I would like this podcast to specifically be asleep podcast.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
My suck was My sucking Sweet is pretty similar, but
My suck was I was away for a couple of
days on the Gold Coast, visiting Sherry and the fam,
and it rained non stop here apparently in Sydney. And
I know this because I got back, and Laura, you'll
know this because we lived in the same house. The
backyard of our house.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
Our house.
Speaker 3 (41:52):
It was built terribly. It wasn't built to drain.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
It has one tiny little drain, but it fills with
sticks and leaves.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
And it's also single enough so the rain doesn't run
into it.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
So you came home to a flood.
Speaker 3 (42:03):
No afterlood, Delilah's Kendel underwater. She no longer has a home.
Everything flooded. It was almost coming into my house. And
that's like when you get back at eleven pm at
night because my flight was delayed, the last thing you
want to do is be like bucketing out water in
the rain outside anyway.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
So that was my suck.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
My suite was the same thing. I was in the
Gold Coast with Sherry and Jay and Maya, and I'm
just trying to get up there as much as possible
now because I have a sneaky suspicion my sister Sherry
might end up moving back over to the UK. So like,
if you guys follow along, you'll know that Sherry's been
living over in the UK for a couple of years
with her husband.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
She just moved back.
Speaker 3 (42:37):
I just have a feeling that they're going to head
back there in the future, so I'm just trying to
get as much time with him as possible. But it
was really wholesome. The Gold Coast was incredible weather. Sorry,
Keisha A Keisha had Deliah here in the rain for
a week. I was just like running around in the sun.
But we played paddle tenners, having working dogs in back
to back days of rain.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Isn't I mare so much?
Speaker 7 (42:58):
In a raincoat and it's a shark, it's got a fit,
it's way too big for It's the only one they had,
And I was like, this is awful. It literally, I
mean for people around your South Wales was apparently it's.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Most of the coast.
Speaker 7 (43:10):
It just poured with rain for four or five days straight,
didn't stop.
Speaker 3 (43:14):
No relief. Perfect timing wasn't planned.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
I was more laughing at BRIT's And you found love
for like paddle and paddle tennis.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
I love like you're mad for it.
Speaker 3 (43:23):
I'm mad for paddle.
Speaker 7 (43:24):
She's really competitive. We played in Bali just before her wedding.
When I got you got a hit in the face.
Yeah that was bad, but brit is super competitive.
Speaker 2 (43:32):
What's that other one that everyone's talking pickle ball.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
I'm not team pickle I'm definitely team paddle. They're very
different things, but.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
Like waters with like things like squashed metato, Like everything
comes around back and around in fashion, doesn't it Like squash, pickaball, paddable,
all of these things, like the stuff that the old
people used to do all the eighties and now it's
back in paddle is giving.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
Squash on steroids because it's in a glass box and
it's this but it's you don't play against a wall,
but you can play off a wall.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
Right, so that squash squashes a glass box as well
or glassy last wall.
Speaker 7 (44:05):
I think it's not as hard as tennis as well,
so like, yeah, it's more accessible for people.
Speaker 3 (44:10):
Oh, because every age plays like you can be eighty
and have an injury and play because the balls will
always bounce.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
Back to you. Isn't squashed just against a wall?
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Like you play with two people, yes, and it can
bounce off any wall and you both have to run around.
Speaker 3 (44:21):
Yeah, so this is you're playing like tennis. It's like
doubles tennis. So you're playing each other on a mini
tennis court, but you're in a giant glass box and
the ball can It doesn't matter if you miss it
and you're not quick enough to get it, because you
just turn around because you know it's going to bounce
up and come back to you, and then you.
Speaker 1 (44:37):
Just hit it back over.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
I remember being a kid of the eighties, my mum
would go and play squash and we would sit and
watch her smack a ball around in front.
Speaker 3 (44:43):
Of the black Yeah. My parents will squashes as well,
and they also did theater. Anyway, Okay, let's get out
