Happy Sunday, Happy Sunday. Good to see you again, my friend.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
What are you wearing this? Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
It's my La Dodgers' vintage Letterman jacket, an authentic collector's item.
I think it's from nineteen eighty eight World.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Series nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Oh, there you go. That's how well I know it.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Sorry, you've never mentioned baseball to me ever.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Look I bought this at Vinnie's a couple of years ago.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Actually, are you a thrift shopper?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Love it?
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Now?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
The La Dodgers are in the World Series and everyone's
talking about their big star. I should know his name.
Japanese fella.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
He's an absolute weapon.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
He's a gun. This guy's a freak. So I finally
have an excuse to wear this really comfy warm jacket
and everyone loves the people go up going, Oh man,
did you see the Dodgers yesterday? I'm like, yeah, how
about that? How about that home run?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
How about that wicked Yeah, I don't even know the
termino wrick out.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I actually that is a very cool jacket.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Really, I would even wear that. But are you a
strift shopper? I love a stroll through a Vinnie.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Or I can't even stand the smell.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, I don't love the smell.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
It smells like mothballs.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Yeah, well you got to do that otherwise. I suppose
most clothes I guess is no, it just smells.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Look.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I have girlfriends who swear by thrift shopping, and they
get beautiful, like designer pieces, like a girlfriend of mine,
pretty much only thrift shop.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I have a real issue with tightly packed in clothes racks.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I even get annoyed when I go to Zara, and
I loves our clothes, but it's the sifting through things
that just gives me.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I get annoyed when I got to Zara and it
sounds so entitled.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
I'm not a through shopper.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
No, that's fair enough. It's not your not your thing, you,
it's not, but you are. You're very glamorous. You are
always well dressed, and you always have beautiful clothes.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yes, and they're not overly priced or anything. I shop
it like a lot of out I.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Shop a normal shop.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I shop at Bogan, poor people's stores like Zara.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Not say that I shop it Kmart and Target. I
get so many bargains there.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah. You know I love my big w T shirts. Yep,
big dub Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Okay, Well anyway, cool jacket.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
All right, that's all the sport we're doing on the
show today, so don't worry about that.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
This is Cris Page and Amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I don't know if there's a full moon. Does a
full moan even work right around the world. I suppose
not everyone has a fullman at the same time.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
No, they don't.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Well, I've just been seeing stories about monkeys going berserk. Yeah,
and I don't know if it's my feed or my algorithm.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
But you've also said something about bears.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
There was a bear story as well.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
It's killed ten people once, the last one being an
eighty year old woman. They've had to call in the army. Yeah,
animals are striking back.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Well, the monkeys are going nuts. So monkey story number one, yeah,
for you is a twenty kilogram monkey that has covid hepatitis,
c herpes what and is aggressive to humans And it's
on the loose.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I will never forget the last time we went to
Bali and you know, there's that whole it's like a
forest and you go and there's monkeys everywhere. Yeah, and
you can feed them and they will jump onto your shoulders.
But there is a big sign at the front that
says like, hold on to your personal belongings, because I
swear to God there it's like they're trained to pickpocket you.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah, did you count your boobs as personal belongings when
the monkeys were.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
No, I did not. I literally sat down.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
I was clocking them all like walking around because that
you can eat them and stuff. And next minute I
had one dropped in right next to me, grabbed the
sonnies off my head and bolted And I'm telling you
now he's bolting back to someone who's going right, I
can pour these off.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah. Is he like the kid monkey and there's like
a drug dealer. He like gets all the kids working
for him, so all the kids take all the sunglasses.
He goes back to the head monkey's house treehouse, I
don't know, and he's got a huge sash of Sonny's iPhones.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Yeah, well that that was the next thing.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
A girlfriend of mine who's gone into this area as
well in Bali, and she's had they've they've literally taken
the phone out of her.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Hand and just gone, that was it. It was the
last time she saw it.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Wow, So I know I'm going to do that. If
Georgie ever looks at my Safari history, Yeah, on my phone,
I can say a monkey took it. Yeah, and you
know their horny little buggers.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Yeah yeah, lobster tube.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Yeah, sapping away this little monkey. I don't know what
he was looking at that.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
What's the next monkey story?
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Well, this is a monkey story, but it also involves
a sporting grate NRL mortal Andrew John's I love this
headline so much. It's from the Daily Mail. Andrew John's
cuts short surfing holiday because he believed the local monkeys
were conspiring against him. Now, I know Joey John's a
(05:28):
little bit and he's a top bloke, Yeah, but he's
a bit random, like yeah, but it's the sort of
thing that Joey would say would become obsessed with, Yeah,
that the monkeys were conspiring against him, as.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
In like they were all like forming a pack and
watching him surf and laughing or something.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Just conspiring just to do something. Maybe he didn't know. Now,
but what you've just said about BALI I think that
backs up. People are calling Andrew John's crazy for this.
I think that's a I.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Mean, that does sound crazy, but it's also written by
the Daily Mail.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
So but it's also happened to you. They conspired and
stole your sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Yeah, but what does that have to do with him surfing?
They're not getting on boards next to me.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
He was on a surfing holiday. Okay, so he wasn't
in the water the whole time. But then it sounds
like Andrew John's Hi, Well, chance, it sounds like Andrew
John's believes that the monkeys were plotting something a bit
more sinister than just taking sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Yeah. I think monkeys have always been a bit cheeky.
The concerning one was the bear one.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yeah, if you're going to Japan, there's a bear on
the loose. The army are hunting it. So by the
time your trip happens, hopefully they shoot and kill the bear.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I'm guessing you never want an animal to be killed.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
It's killed ten people.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, yeah, and you know what, that would not be
a pleasant way to go out.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
It says it's biting, their attacking their faces and necks.
This bear's got to go.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Yeah, that bear does not sound happy.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
We're top of the food chain. Sorry, brother, you don't
kill ten people and get away with it.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
This is Chris Page and a.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Chris and I are both married, happily married.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
And two different people.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
We like to live.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Vicariously through my girlfriends who were I've got a couple
who are still single. Yes, not a lot, but the
single ones they do have some funny stories.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
There's one girlfriend you have in particular that I pretty
much get in every week and go what's she been
up to? Because every weekend, My goodness.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
She's out for a good time. Not a long time clearly,
but good for her anyway. Another girlfriend of mine, I
was with her last weekend and she is a single mom.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
She hasn't been on the dating scene for very long now.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
She's kind of just focused all her energies on her son,
which is really lovely, and she's starting to put herself
back out there, get on the apps, go on some dates.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
And I saw her.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
On the weekend and she said, I've been chatting with
this guy and we finally went on a date and
I said, fantastic, Like, tell me was it good, Like
did you get along?
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Did you hit it off?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And she goes, yep, so many common interests, so much
to chat about. Our conversation was easy, it flowed naturally,
YadA YadA yadda.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
And I said, that's so good. I'm really happy for
you going to see him again? She said, oh no,
And I said, oh why.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
And she goes, he has the shortest fingers I have
ever seen in my life. And I was like, oh,
she goes, no, no, no. It was like there was
a finger disability. I don't know if they were severed
in the uterus. They were short, little stumpy.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Fingers, little chad fingers.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Little choed fingers.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Was it a deformity or just short fingers.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I don't know, and I don't think she knows, but
it has given her the ick, and based on that, she.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Will no longer be seeing him.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
And I was like, what if he's well endowed, what
if his short fingers are short but everywhere else is long.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I didn't get the impression that the problem with the
short fingers was anything for the bedroom. I just thought
she just looked at his hand and went, those are weird. Fingers.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Oh really, I went straight to the bedroom mine.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Really.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Yeah, And then I was kind of like.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Surely you can overlook that for like maybe a second
date or a third date.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
But she's just three strikes and he's out.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
No, that's one strike and one strike.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
But it was a big enough issue for her to
never see him again. I was like, this poor guy,
and it obviously spoken about my other girlfriend who has
a ridiculously long ick list.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Yes, we spoke about now what's her name or did
you keep that a secret?
Speaker 1 (09:28):
To?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
What?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Were some of her like X and these are deal
breakers because she keeps a long list in her phone.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Hers they were so funny though. They were like if
he's an only child, if he runs for the bus,
if he has a flag up in his room.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Like certain flags I get.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
But her list was so outrageous. I actually don't think
she'll ever meet anyone.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I'm fascinated by this woman. I'd love to get her on.
I've got so many questions, like do you I mean,
if it's an express bus that runs every five minutes
and a peak hour and you miss it, sure, just
be cool, don't run, There'll be another one in five minutes.
Some buses only come once an hour. You to run
with your backpack on.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, well that was another ear someone a guy who
wears a backpack.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Maybe she thinks they're terrorists because that would be legit
suicide bombs. That's a deal breaker for me.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
That's a deal breaker for me too. But I definitely
thought that the little finger story was very funny.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I wonder if the guy has ever addressed it before,
Like I mean, if she says they're that short, then
he'd be aware of it. So maybe he should have.
When he gets his wallet out to pay for dinner,
he should go, oh, I can still reach into my
wallet with my little fingers. Little look my little fingers.
They might be short and stumpy, but trust me, they
(10:51):
they can still do everything.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Even just thinking about it, I do understand, like I
like a masculine hand, like you know, a handshake.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
And a nice firm.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Manly handle, So I do get it. But I don't
know if he was dicking every other box. I feel
like he should have been given in a seton chance.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
I wonder if when she met him, like if he
had like a little limp handshake as well. You know
when someone gives you the limp handshake.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Like the wet fish.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I actually have an uncle who shakes like that and it.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, I'd rather someone crush the bones in my fingers
than give me a limp handshake.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah, and if it with a hand, with a clammy hand, no,
get out.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Probably has a small penis too, so.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Yeah, she probably dodged a bullet.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
This is Crisp Page and Amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Hollywood's a brutal town, yeah, Amy. Every day girls get
off the bus from Kansas with stars in their eyes,
thinking they're going to make it big, and a few
years later they're doing heroin on a porn went real.
Is that how Hollywood works? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It would be a brutal yeah, a very dog eat
dog world, wouldn't it.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
If your daughter was, you know, getting the bus from
Kansas to LA, you'd be like, oh god, no, no, Well,
some actresses do make it. Jackie Tone is one of them.
If you know the name, she is from the huge
Netflix show Nobody Wants this.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Great hot Rabbi. She's married to the hot rabbi's brother. Yes,
I could know her. She's very funny.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Okay, she's great. Now, everything's going fine for her. But
took her a few years to get her big break
in Hollywood. Went to auditions, nothing was happening. Then she
finally got her big break. She called her parents excited
she did a show was on. It brought her parents
to the Hollywood studio for the first time CBS Studios.
(12:39):
Mom and Dad, this is me. I finally made it. Yeah,
this is how she found out she'd been fired from
the show.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I get this audition keeps going going further. I'm testing
it's Daniel Stern is the dad. Judd Hirsh is the grandpa.
I'm trying out to be the daughter. I could hardly
think of something more obvious than me for these absolute
two yantas. So I'm like, okay, this is my dream.
I book the series. I'm so excited. Parents are out there.
We shoot at CBS Radford. I got my picture on
(13:07):
my ID. I mean, I'm telling you, dreams are coming true.
As I pull into my parking space, a man is
paint rolling my name off of my parking space, you know,
like the cement thing that they've spray painted Jackie Tone onto. Well,
he has a bucket of white paint and a long
(13:27):
stick with a roller at the end, and he's simply
paint rolling with my parents in the car.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
How brutal is that? Hey, mom and dad?
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Look, yeah, that's one way to go out. That is
like a total blind side?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Can we be honest? We had a little bit of
it during the week because the company we work for
here aar and the domes Kiss, had this big thing
and they're like, and it's called up front of they go,
this is what we're doing next year, and they're like
Kyle and Jackie, oh, Will and Woody and look Small's
he's here now glowies and went through everything.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
That Johanna's here, the saucy secrets.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
And everything, and we're like, and Christen.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Cares about weekend breaky what I get it? I care?
But yes, we were very much like are we getting fired?
Did they forget to tell us? Won't fired? Have you
ever been blind sided like fired? With like in a.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Yeah, well, I want to point out that the good
people at Kiss did not do that, and we're all good.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
We're going to hear like a bad smell the other year.
Can't get rid of us.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
But it has happened to me brutally. In TV. I
was working on a Friday night show on Fox Sports
years ago on Fox League and it was this like
funny show, we do stupid stuff. It came on after
the footy, so we did two seasons of it or
I didn't there and yep, all right, hey that was good,
big party. See you next year.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Next year rolls around, so you're off the whole footy season.
No one's working. It's all good. March rolls around and
you go, okay, you know the footy's about to start up.
And I called up and said, hey, yeah, when are
we starting, Like are we We're going to have a
planning meeting soon or whatever, and yeah, he said, I
just old check.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
And so I know they've moved on without you.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
And you've got the call back and I'm so sorry
to cut you from the show. I get it because
I mean they were slashing budgets. It got real bargain basement.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
After I've been made redundant.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
You know, And I get it that. And when they say, hey,
it's not you, we just don't have the money, you know,
it's still hurts bet all right, of course, but tell me.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, don't wait for me to call up.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Yeah, you know the movie office space where they just
like find out some guy should have been fired ages ago,
so they just stopped paying him, but don't tell him. Yeah, anyway,
I don't know why we're talking about being let go
due to cost cutting on radio right now, at this
time of year.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I know we're walking a thin line, aren't we.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
They call it killing season November on the radio. Yeah,
it's when everyone's.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
We should start talking more.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Do you want to get back to dating and family stuff?
And monkey's going crazy? Okay, more of that.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
This is crisp page.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
And so, Paige, you don't have any daughters, And after
I tell you this story, you're probably going to be like,
praise God that I don't. And I have a really
wonderful relationship with my daughter. She's very much a preteen.
She turns ten in a couple of weeks time, like
she's nowhere near getting her period, and I am terrified.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
So she has this real fixation on her hair.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
And I know I'm not the only one out there
with a preteen daughter who is fixated on hair. And
I actually don't know where it comes from, because yes,
I go out and I will do my hair and
my makeup, but eighty percent of the time she sees
me bare face with my hair in a bun.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah, But she doesn't want to be you. She's looking
at Sabrina and Taylor Swift's.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
All social media, it's YouTube and all these girls. They
wear makeup and they've got this perfect hair. When I
tell you the mornings before school, it's like I go
to war every morning and it's always around her hair
and the bumps. So these bumps are going to put
me in a goddamn straight jacket.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Bumps, Yeah, like a.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Bump in her hair.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So when she does her hair in the morning, and
a lot of the time, I just say I can't
take this on, do it yourself. And she will do
her hair over and she'll pull it out. Then she'll
do it again, and then she'll pull it out, and
there'll be teas and meltdowns and it has to be perfect.
It is the most outrageous thing I have ever experienced
(17:35):
in my life, because at the end of the day,
your school is for your education.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Right, you go to learn and you're nine. You're not
going there to mill boys.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
You are nine. Now.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I do think she has a little crush at school,
which is fine. So did I, But ultimately I never
cared about what I look like now I'm trying to
validate her feelings. She obviously cares about her hair, but
I need help. I don't know how to survive these
morning meltdowns.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
And I just never thought that I would be here
as a parent.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
You said you'd been screaming at each other.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I think yes, And I've thrown hair brushes across the room.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
She's slammed doors in my face. She'll storm up to school.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
And I won't get a goodbye, like it's a real
issue that's going on.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
I feel like you can This isn't more than you
can handle right now. You know you're a strong woman.
I think what is troubling you is the fear of
this is nine Well.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I actually called my mom on a walk last Friday.
I had to decompress. I dropped them at school. I
didn't get a goodbye from her. So I went on
a walk and I called my mom and I said,
I'm really struggling with Charlie and I don't know. I
don't want to be this person that just doesn't validate
her feelings. Her hair is obviously a big thing to her.
She goes, hah, just you wait, and she actually said
(18:54):
to me, you were hell to raise, and we didn't
even have technology and Charlie doesn't even have a period yet,
so you better strap yourself in amy.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
So look the way.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
She laughed about it did make me go, oh, I'm
not alone, and I obviously put my mum through.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Hell and karma does exist.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Well, this is the big calm of us coming around
to do it. Hit me and yeah, basically, give me
a taste of my own medicine.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Girls, right, I have them, Right, you're lucky you don't
have one.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
You've got two boys as well. I've got two boys,
so you know the worst thing getting them for it?
If school is like just clean undies, just put undies on, put.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Them past the time they don't put undies on.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
I can see the skinty from the outside of those undies.
Change them before school and grub.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, that's all we've got to deal with with the boys.
My boys are actually so easy in the morning. It's yeah,
it's my beautiful daughter and the hairgate.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Wait until they do that genetic thing where you can
choose what gend are you going to have?
Speaker 4 (19:57):
And like you can do that now.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
I don't think it's.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Legal, No, it is legal.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
You just have to fly overseas for it. You can
do it in Hawaii and America.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I don't agree with it.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Women might go extinct.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
May the world would survive without them.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Actually that's true, humans would go extinctively.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
This is cris Page and amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Politics is so crap now these days. And I'm not
talking about Trump, although he's very funny in Australia. It's
just the pettiness. And I know you've never watched like
question Time and stuff, but they act like children when
they're all this money.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Yeah, no, I do. I find it. It's very catty.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It went to a new low, I feel this week
when Albanezy got in trouble for a T shirt he
was wearing because he's Elbow's a big music fan, right,
and I think he thinks he's cool as well, and
you are not. But he was getting off a plane
and apparently he'd been winging to some of the journalists
who are close to him that he hates having to
(20:59):
put on a suit and tie just to get off
the plane because he gets filmed and he needs to
look like he's working right and hasn't been slamming grog
the whole flight, not saying he did, but Yeah, maybe
those stairs are just tricky to navigate. Sometimes he's walked
off the plane, this time in a Joy Division T shirt.
So Joy Division the big band from the eighties lovel
(21:20):
Terrace Apart. The leader of the Liberals, Susan Lay. Susan
has said that his T shirt had Nazi connotations and
said it was tasteless to Jewish people to wear that shirt.
How it's a weird obscure backstory. Joy Division was what
they called a part of a concentration camp with women
(21:44):
who were there for like pleasure of the guards and
stuff like that back in the day. So Joy Division
it's sort of probably a tasteless band name. Yeah, but
Alban Easy wearing a Joy Division T shirt because he
likes the band, So he's a Nazi? Oh are we
going there? Really?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It feels a little clutchy, like they're just trying to
clutch at anything they can and make it a thing.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
You have enough, Amma, or Australians can't pay their electricity bills,
get him in that. I don't care what T shirt
he wears.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
And also it's maybe a tasteless band name, but he
didn't name the band.
Speaker 4 (22:18):
He just likes the music.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Exactly like I can wear a Butthole Surfers T shirt.
You can, you know, because it's a good band.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Speaking of funny T shirts, one of my girlfriends actually
the other day she put up a story and she
was sitting at a cafe and this white T shirt
and it said things to do today, and then in
a dot point underneath it, it said your dad and it's.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Been crossed out.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Oh that's good.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
I thought that was funny. Obviously, she's a single lady,
very good looking.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
How did that go down?
Speaker 4 (22:45):
She's ballsy, Like, think about wearing that out in public.
Everyone would just be staring.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
You're wearing a T shirt literally saying to everyone, I
your dad today. So it was great.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Elbow, there's your next shirt when you get off the
plane if you want to, if you want everyone to
forget that whole joy division business.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Things to do today?
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Your dad, very maybe your mum. Yeah yeah, but anyway,
politicians just do some work.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
This is Crisp Page and Amy Gerid.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
So I got the I've upgraded my phone. I've got
the new iPhone seventeen and I've got a real bugbear
with Apple, and I know they do it every single year,
but it just pisces me off. Every single time you
get a new phone from them, they change something and
it's not a huge change. It's always like minuscule, but
it just means that not only do you upgrade the phone,
(23:39):
but you have to go and.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Upgrade either the charger or the cord for it.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
They did well. They took away the hole for the
EarPods with cords yep.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
And they've changed the charger, which I hopefully that's universal
now it's all here to stay. But even with this
iPhone seventeen, the camera stays.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
In the same place.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
But they put these two little buttons. I don't even
know what they do, and they're normally here.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
One of them looks like the flash.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Oh, yep, that's exactly, so they've moved it. They've moved the.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Flash to another part of the phone, which means you
can no longer use your old phone cases.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
You've got to go and get new ones.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It's this little thing that they do every time they
bring out a new phone, which means.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
You have to spend more money on accessories, and it
just shits me to tears.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
And the same with the laptops and also all the
programs that Apple develop, they you know, deliberately make them
non compatible with even learning to use a new phone.
I have an iPhone as well, and I always have.
Is it because I'm loyal to Apple? Absolutely not. People go,
why don't you get a Galaxy or an Apple or
a Google phone? Yes, sure, apparently they're great, But I
(24:47):
just go, we will all my stuff move over? Okay, No,
no I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
So let's say I wanted to try out the new
Samsung Galaxy. My brother's got one. He said, they're fantastic phones.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
You can't bring your iCloud stuff over to Samsung.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
It's completely separate, so you would be starting from scratch.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
So once you're in the cloud.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
Once you with Apple, they have you hook line and
sinker the.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Ghost of Steve Jobs from hell where I'm sure he is,
as you buy the balls for life.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Literally by the balls. It's very even updating. I've stayed
with Apple. I've been with Apple now for over a decade.
But the new iPhone seventeen, it's got all this technology.
I can't even get into my contacts list like they
have moved everything around. So I probably need a day
or two to sit with my phone and learn how
everything works.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I've just read the Steve Jobs biography. By the way,
not a nice man. Oh really, you can't deny his genius.
Very very clever, a visionary, and no one else could
have done what he did with Apple. But yeah, I
would have these tantrums and so abusive to people, and
would say the meanest things to people and turn on them,
but then would also burst into tears, oh wow, over
(26:04):
things when things were working. He does sound like a psychopathy.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
I wrote that was the book written about him after
he died.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
No, it was he commissioned the biography and said, I
want you to be honest, and it does talk about
all the great things he did, but also yeah, crying
in meetings a lot too. So anyway, calm, I got
Steve Jobs, worry about it. Steve Timmy cooks in charge. Now,
good on your Apple. Good people, keep it kiss and
we will see you next Week' Saturday at eight am,
everyone by.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
This is Chris Page and Amy to ride
I Heart Podcasts, hear more kiss podcasts, playlists, and listen
live on the Free iHeart app.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Yes, sir, I'm talking. Let's go.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Let's good morning that remains to be seen Chris Page
and Amy Yard in the morning. Hey, good morning everyone,
Happy Sunday, Happy Sunday. Good to see you again, my friend.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
What are you wearing this? Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
It's my La Dodgers' vintage Letterman jacket, an authentic collector's item.
I think it's from nineteen eighty eight World.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Series nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Oh, there you go. That's how well I know it.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Sorry, you've never mentioned baseball to me ever.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Look I bought this at Vinnie's a couple of years ago.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
Actually, are you a thrift shopper?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Love it?
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Now?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
The La Dodgers are in the World Series and everyone's
talking about their big star. I should know his name.
Japanese fella.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
He's an absolute weapon.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
He's a gun. This guy's a freak. So I finally
have an excuse to wear this really comfy warm jacket
and everyone loves the people go up going, Oh man,
did you see the Dodgers yesterday? I'm like, yeah, how
about that? How about that home run?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
How about that wicked Yeah, I don't even know the
termino wrick out.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
I actually that is a very cool jacket.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Really, I would even wear that. But are you a
strift shopper? I love a stroll through a Vinnie.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Or I can't even stand the smell.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, I don't love the smell.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
It smells like mothballs.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Yeah, well you got to do that otherwise. I suppose
most clothes I guess is no, it just smells.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Look.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I have girlfriends who swear by thrift shopping, and they
get beautiful, like designer pieces, like a girlfriend of mine,
pretty much only thrift shop.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I have a real issue with tightly packed in clothes racks.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I even get annoyed when I go to Zara, and
I loves our clothes, but it's the sifting through things
that just gives me.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I get annoyed when I got to Zara and it
sounds so entitled.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
I'm not a through shopper.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
No, that's fair enough. It's not your not your thing, you,
it's not, but you are. You're very glamorous. You are
always well dressed, and you always have beautiful clothes.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yes, and they're not overly priced or anything. I shop
it like a lot of out I.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Shop a normal shop.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I shop at Bogan, poor people's stores like Zara.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Not say that I shop it Kmart and Target. I
get so many bargains there.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah. You know I love my big w T shirts. Yep,
big dub Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
Okay, Well anyway, cool jacket.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
All right, that's all the sport we're doing on the
show today, so don't worry about that.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
This is Cris Page and Amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I don't know if there's a full moon. Does a
full moan even work right around the world. I suppose
not everyone has a fullman at the same time.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
No, they don't.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Well, I've just been seeing stories about monkeys going berserk. Yeah,
and I don't know if it's my feed or my algorithm.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
But you've also said something about bears.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
There was a bear story as well.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
It's killed ten people once, the last one being an
eighty year old woman. They've had to call in the army. Yeah,
animals are striking back.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Well, the monkeys are going nuts. So monkey story number one, yeah,
for you is a twenty kilogram monkey that has covid hepatitis,
c herpes what and is aggressive to humans And it's
on the loose.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I will never forget the last time we went to
Bali and you know, there's that whole it's like a
forest and you go and there's monkeys everywhere. Yeah, and
you can feed them and they will jump onto your shoulders.
But there is a big sign at the front that
says like, hold on to your personal belongings, because I
swear to God there it's like they're trained to pickpocket you.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah, did you count your boobs as personal belongings when
the monkeys were.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
No, I did not. I literally sat down.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
I was clocking them all like walking around because that
you can eat them and stuff. And next minute I
had one dropped in right next to me, grabbed the
sonnies off my head and bolted And I'm telling you
now he's bolting back to someone who's going right, I
can pour these off.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah. Is he like the kid monkey and there's like
a drug dealer. He like gets all the kids working
for him, so all the kids take all the sunglasses.
He goes back to the head monkey's house treehouse, I
don't know, and he's got a huge sash of Sonny's iPhones.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
Yeah, well that that was the next thing.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
A girlfriend of mine who's gone into this area as
well in Bali, and she's had they've they've literally taken
the phone out of her.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Hand and just gone, that was it. It was the
last time she saw it.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Wow, So I know I'm going to do that. If
Georgie ever looks at my Safari history, Yeah, on my phone,
I can say a monkey took it. Yeah, and you
know their horny little buggers.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Yeah yeah, lobster tube.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Yeah, sapping away this little monkey. I don't know what
he was looking at that.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
What's the next monkey story?
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Well, this is a monkey story, but it also involves
a sporting grate NRL mortal Andrew John's I love this
headline so much. It's from the Daily Mail. Andrew John's
cuts short surfing holiday because he believed the local monkeys
were conspiring against him. Now, I know Joey John's a
(05:28):
little bit and he's a top bloke, Yeah, but he's
a bit random, like yeah, but it's the sort of
thing that Joey would say would become obsessed with, Yeah,
that the monkeys were conspiring against him, as.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
In like they were all like forming a pack and
watching him surf and laughing or something.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Just conspiring just to do something. Maybe he didn't know. Now,
but what you've just said about BALI I think that
backs up. People are calling Andrew John's crazy for this.
I think that's a I.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Mean, that does sound crazy, but it's also written by
the Daily Mail.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
So but it's also happened to you. They conspired and
stole your sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Yeah, but what does that have to do with him surfing?
They're not getting on boards next to me.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
He was on a surfing holiday. Okay, so he wasn't
in the water the whole time. But then it sounds
like Andrew John's Hi, Well, chance, it sounds like Andrew
John's believes that the monkeys were plotting something a bit
more sinister than just taking sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Yeah. I think monkeys have always been a bit cheeky.
The concerning one was the bear one.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yeah, if you're going to Japan, there's a bear on
the loose. The army are hunting it. So by the
time your trip happens, hopefully they shoot and kill the bear.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I'm guessing you never want an animal to be killed.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
It's killed ten people.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, yeah, and you know what, that would not be
a pleasant way to go out.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
It says it's biting, their attacking their faces and necks.
This bear's got to go.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
Yeah, that bear does not sound happy.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
We're top of the food chain. Sorry, brother, you don't
kill ten people and get away with it.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
This is Chris Page and a.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Chris and I are both married, happily married.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
And two different people.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
We like to live.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Vicariously through my girlfriends who were I've got a couple
who are still single. Yes, not a lot, but the
single ones they do have some funny stories.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
There's one girlfriend you have in particular that I pretty
much get in every week and go what's she been
up to? Because every weekend, My goodness.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
She's out for a good time. Not a long time clearly,
but good for her anyway. Another girlfriend of mine, I
was with her last weekend and she is a single mom.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
She hasn't been on the dating scene for very long now.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
She's kind of just focused all her energies on her son,
which is really lovely, and she's starting to put herself
back out there, get on the apps, go on some dates.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
And I saw her.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
On the weekend and she said, I've been chatting with
this guy and we finally went on a date and
I said, fantastic, Like, tell me was it good, Like
did you get along?
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Did you hit it off?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
And she goes, yep, so many common interests, so much
to chat about. Our conversation was easy, it flowed naturally,
YadA YadA yadda.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
And I said, that's so good. I'm really happy for
you going to see him again? She said, oh no,
And I said, oh why.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
And she goes, he has the shortest fingers I have
ever seen in my life. And I was like, oh,
she goes, no, no, no. It was like there was
a finger disability. I don't know if they were severed
in the uterus. They were short, little stumpy.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Fingers, little chad fingers.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Little choed fingers.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Was it a deformity or just short fingers.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I don't know, and I don't think she knows, but
it has given her the ick, and based on that, she.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Will no longer be seeing him.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
And I was like, what if he's well endowed, what
if his short fingers are short but everywhere else is long.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
I didn't get the impression that the problem with the
short fingers was anything for the bedroom. I just thought
she just looked at his hand and went, those are weird. Fingers.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Oh really, I went straight to the bedroom mine.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Really.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Yeah, And then I was kind of like.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Surely you can overlook that for like maybe a second
date or a third date.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
But she's just three strikes and he's out.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
No, that's one strike and one strike.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
But it was a big enough issue for her to
never see him again. I was like, this poor guy,
and it obviously spoken about my other girlfriend who has
a ridiculously long ick list.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Yes, we spoke about now what's her name or did
you keep that a secret?
Speaker 1 (09:28):
To?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
What?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Were some of her like X and these are deal
breakers because she keeps a long list in her phone.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Hers they were so funny though. They were like if
he's an only child, if he runs for the bus,
if he has a flag up in his room.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Like certain flags I get.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
But her list was so outrageous. I actually don't think
she'll ever meet anyone.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I'm fascinated by this woman. I'd love to get her on.
I've got so many questions, like do you I mean,
if it's an express bus that runs every five minutes
and a peak hour and you miss it, sure, just
be cool, don't run, There'll be another one in five minutes.
Some buses only come once an hour. You to run
with your backpack on.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, well that was another ear someone a guy who
wears a backpack.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Maybe she thinks they're terrorists because that would be legit
suicide bombs. That's a deal breaker for me.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
That's a deal breaker for me too. But I definitely
thought that the little finger story was very funny.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I wonder if the guy has ever addressed it before,
Like I mean, if she says they're that short, then
he'd be aware of it. So maybe he should have.
When he gets his wallet out to pay for dinner,
he should go, oh, I can still reach into my
wallet with my little fingers. Little look my little fingers.
They might be short and stumpy, but trust me, they
(10:51):
they can still do everything.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Even just thinking about it, I do understand, like I
like a masculine hand, like you know, a handshake.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
And a nice firm.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Manly handle, So I do get it. But I don't
know if he was dicking every other box. I feel
like he should have been given in a seton chance.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
I wonder if when she met him, like if he
had like a little limp handshake as well. You know
when someone gives you the limp handshake.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Like the wet fish.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I actually have an uncle who shakes like that and it.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, I'd rather someone crush the bones in my fingers
than give me a limp handshake.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah, and if it with a hand, with a clammy hand, no,
get out.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Probably has a small penis too, so.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Yeah, she probably dodged a bullet.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
This is Crisp Page and Amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Hollywood's a brutal town, yeah, Amy. Every day girls get
off the bus from Kansas with stars in their eyes,
thinking they're going to make it big, and a few
years later they're doing heroin on a porn went real.
Is that how Hollywood works? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It would be a brutal yeah, a very dog eat
dog world, wouldn't it.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
If your daughter was, you know, getting the bus from
Kansas to LA, you'd be like, oh god, no, no, Well,
some actresses do make it. Jackie Tone is one of them.
If you know the name, she is from the huge
Netflix show Nobody Wants this.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Great hot Rabbi. She's married to the hot rabbi's brother. Yes,
I could know her. She's very funny.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Okay, she's great. Now, everything's going fine for her. But
took her a few years to get her big break
in Hollywood. Went to auditions, nothing was happening. Then she
finally got her big break. She called her parents excited
she did a show was on. It brought her parents
to the Hollywood studio for the first time CBS Studios.
(12:39):
Mom and Dad, this is me. I finally made it. Yeah,
this is how she found out she'd been fired from
the show.
Speaker 5 (12:45):
I get this audition keeps going going further. I'm testing
it's Daniel Stern is the dad. Judd Hirsh is the grandpa.
I'm trying out to be the daughter. I could hardly
think of something more obvious than me for these absolute
two yantas. So I'm like, okay, this is my dream.
I book the series. I'm so excited. Parents are out there.
We shoot at CBS Radford. I got my picture on
(13:07):
my ID. I mean, I'm telling you, dreams are coming true.
As I pull into my parking space, a man is
paint rolling my name off of my parking space, you know,
like the cement thing that they've spray painted Jackie Tone onto. Well,
he has a bucket of white paint and a long
(13:27):
stick with a roller at the end, and he's simply
paint rolling with my parents in the car.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
How brutal is that? Hey, mom and dad?
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Look, yeah, that's one way to go out. That is
like a total blind side?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Can we be honest? We had a little bit of
it during the week because the company we work for
here aar and the domes Kiss, had this big thing
and they're like, and it's called up front of they go,
this is what we're doing next year, and they're like
Kyle and Jackie, oh, Will and Woody and look Small's
he's here now glowies and went through everything.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
That Johanna's here, the saucy secrets.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
And everything, and we're like, and Christen.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Cares about weekend breaky what I get it? I care?
But yes, we were very much like are we getting fired?
Did they forget to tell us? Won't fired? Have you
ever been blind sided like fired? With like in a.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Yeah, well, I want to point out that the good
people at Kiss did not do that, and we're all good.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
We're going to hear like a bad smell the other year.
Can't get rid of us.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
But it has happened to me brutally. In TV. I
was working on a Friday night show on Fox Sports
years ago on Fox League and it was this like
funny show, we do stupid stuff. It came on after
the footy, so we did two seasons of it or
I didn't there and yep, all right, hey that was good,
big party. See you next year.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Next year rolls around, so you're off the whole footy season.
No one's working. It's all good. March rolls around and
you go, okay, you know the footy's about to start up.
And I called up and said, hey, yeah, when are
we starting, Like are we We're going to have a
planning meeting soon or whatever, and yeah, he said, I
just old check.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
And so I know they've moved on without you.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
And you've got the call back and I'm so sorry
to cut you from the show. I get it because
I mean they were slashing budgets. It got real bargain basement.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
After I've been made redundant.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
You know, And I get it that. And when they say, hey,
it's not you, we just don't have the money, you know,
it's still hurts bet all right, of course, but tell me.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Yeah, don't wait for me to call up.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Yeah, you know the movie office space where they just
like find out some guy should have been fired ages ago,
so they just stopped paying him, but don't tell him. Yeah, anyway,
I don't know why we're talking about being let go
due to cost cutting on radio right now, at this
time of year.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I know we're walking a thin line, aren't we.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
They call it killing season November on the radio. Yeah,
it's when everyone's.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
We should start talking more.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Do you want to get back to dating and family stuff?
And monkey's going crazy? Okay, more of that.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
This is crisp page.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
And so, Paige, you don't have any daughters, And after
I tell you this story, you're probably going to be like,
praise God that I don't. And I have a really
wonderful relationship with my daughter. She's very much a preteen.
She turns ten in a couple of weeks time, like
she's nowhere near getting her period, and I am terrified.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
So she has this real fixation on her hair.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
And I know I'm not the only one out there
with a preteen daughter who is fixated on hair. And
I actually don't know where it comes from, because yes,
I go out and I will do my hair and
my makeup, but eighty percent of the time she sees
me bare face with my hair in a bun.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah, But she doesn't want to be you. She's looking
at Sabrina and Taylor Swift's.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
All social media, it's YouTube and all these girls. They
wear makeup and they've got this perfect hair. When I
tell you the mornings before school, it's like I go
to war every morning and it's always around her hair
and the bumps. So these bumps are going to put
me in a goddamn straight jacket.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Bumps, Yeah, like a.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Bump in her hair.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
So when she does her hair in the morning, and
a lot of the time, I just say I can't
take this on, do it yourself. And she will do
her hair over and she'll pull it out. Then she'll
do it again, and then she'll pull it out, and
there'll be teas and meltdowns and it has to be perfect.
It is the most outrageous thing I have ever experienced
(17:35):
in my life, because at the end of the day,
your school is for your education.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Right, you go to learn and you're nine. You're not
going there to mill boys.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
You are nine. Now.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I do think she has a little crush at school,
which is fine. So did I, But ultimately I never
cared about what I look like now I'm trying to
validate her feelings. She obviously cares about her hair, but
I need help. I don't know how to survive these
morning meltdowns.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
And I just never thought that I would be here
as a parent.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
You said you'd been screaming at each other.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I think yes, And I've thrown hair brushes across the room.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
She's slammed doors in my face. She'll storm up to school.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
And I won't get a goodbye, like it's a real
issue that's going on.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
I feel like you can This isn't more than you
can handle right now. You know you're a strong woman.
I think what is troubling you is the fear of
this is nine Well.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I actually called my mom on a walk last Friday.
I had to decompress. I dropped them at school. I
didn't get a goodbye from her. So I went on
a walk and I called my mom and I said,
I'm really struggling with Charlie and I don't know. I
don't want to be this person that just doesn't validate
her feelings. Her hair is obviously a big thing to her.
She goes, hah, just you wait, and she actually said
(18:54):
to me, you were hell to raise, and we didn't
even have technology and Charlie doesn't even have a period yet,
so you better strap yourself in amy.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
So look the way.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
She laughed about it did make me go, oh, I'm
not alone, and I obviously put my mum through.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Hell and karma does exist.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Well, this is the big calm of us coming around
to do it. Hit me and yeah, basically, give me
a taste of my own medicine.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Girls, right, I have them, Right, you're lucky you don't
have one.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
You've got two boys as well. I've got two boys,
so you know the worst thing getting them for it?
If school is like just clean undies, just put undies on, put.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Them past the time they don't put undies on.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
I can see the skinty from the outside of those undies.
Change them before school and grub.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, that's all we've got to deal with with the boys.
My boys are actually so easy in the morning. It's yeah,
it's my beautiful daughter and the hairgate.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Wait until they do that genetic thing where you can
choose what gend are you going to have?
Speaker 4 (19:57):
And like you can do that now.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
I don't think it's.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Legal, No, it is legal.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
You just have to fly overseas for it. You can
do it in Hawaii and America.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I don't agree with it.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Women might go extinct.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
May the world would survive without them.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Actually that's true, humans would go extinctively.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
This is cris Page and amy to ride.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Politics is so crap now these days. And I'm not
talking about Trump, although he's very funny in Australia. It's
just the pettiness. And I know you've never watched like
question Time and stuff, but they act like children when
they're all this money.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Yeah, no, I do. I find it. It's very catty.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It went to a new low, I feel this week
when Albanezy got in trouble for a T shirt he
was wearing because he's Elbow's a big music fan, right,
and I think he thinks he's cool as well, and
you are not. But he was getting off a plane
and apparently he'd been winging to some of the journalists
who are close to him that he hates having to
(20:59):
put on a suit and tie just to get off
the plane because he gets filmed and he needs to
look like he's working right and hasn't been slamming grog
the whole flight, not saying he did, but Yeah, maybe
those stairs are just tricky to navigate. Sometimes he's walked
off the plane, this time in a Joy Division T shirt.
So Joy Division the big band from the eighties lovel
(21:20):
Terrace Apart. The leader of the Liberals, Susan Lay. Susan
has said that his T shirt had Nazi connotations and
said it was tasteless to Jewish people to wear that shirt.
How it's a weird obscure backstory. Joy Division was what
they called a part of a concentration camp with women
(21:44):
who were there for like pleasure of the guards and
stuff like that back in the day. So Joy Division
it's sort of probably a tasteless band name. Yeah, but
Alban Easy wearing a Joy Division T shirt because he
likes the band, So he's a Nazi? Oh are we
going there? Really?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It feels a little clutchy, like they're just trying to
clutch at anything they can and make it a thing.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
You have enough, Amma, or Australians can't pay their electricity bills,
get him in that. I don't care what T shirt
he wears.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
And also it's maybe a tasteless band name, but he
didn't name the band.
Speaker 4 (22:18):
He just likes the music.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Exactly like I can wear a Butthole Surfers T shirt.
You can, you know, because it's a good band.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Speaking of funny T shirts, one of my girlfriends actually
the other day she put up a story and she
was sitting at a cafe and this white T shirt
and it said things to do today, and then in
a dot point underneath it, it said your dad and it's.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Been crossed out.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Oh that's good.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
I thought that was funny. Obviously, she's a single lady,
very good looking.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
How did that go down?
Speaker 4 (22:45):
She's ballsy, Like, think about wearing that out in public.
Everyone would just be staring.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
You're wearing a T shirt literally saying to everyone, I
your dad today. So it was great.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Elbow, there's your next shirt when you get off the
plane if you want to, if you want everyone to
forget that whole joy division business.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Things to do today?
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Your dad, very maybe your mum. Yeah yeah, but anyway,
politicians just do some work.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
This is Crisp Page and Amy Gerid.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
So I got the I've upgraded my phone. I've got
the new iPhone seventeen and I've got a real bugbear
with Apple, and I know they do it every single year,
but it just pisces me off. Every single time you
get a new phone from them, they change something and
it's not a huge change. It's always like minuscule, but
it just means that not only do you upgrade the phone,
(23:39):
but you have to go and.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Upgrade either the charger or the cord for it.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
They did well. They took away the hole for the
EarPods with cords yep.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
And they've changed the charger, which I hopefully that's universal
now it's all here to stay. But even with this
iPhone seventeen, the camera stays.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
In the same place.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
But they put these two little buttons. I don't even
know what they do, and they're normally here.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
One of them looks like the flash.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Oh, yep, that's exactly, so they've moved it. They've moved the.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Flash to another part of the phone, which means you
can no longer use your old phone cases.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
You've got to go and get new ones.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It's this little thing that they do every time they
bring out a new phone, which means.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
You have to spend more money on accessories, and it
just shits me to tears.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
And the same with the laptops and also all the
programs that Apple develop, they you know, deliberately make them
non compatible with even learning to use a new phone.
I have an iPhone as well, and I always have.
Is it because I'm loyal to Apple? Absolutely not. People go,
why don't you get a Galaxy or an Apple or
a Google phone? Yes, sure, apparently they're great, But I
(24:47):
just go, we will all my stuff move over? Okay, No,
no I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
So let's say I wanted to try out the new
Samsung Galaxy. My brother's got one. He said, they're fantastic phones.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
You can't bring your iCloud stuff over to Samsung.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
It's completely separate, so you would be starting from scratch.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
So once you're in the cloud.
Speaker 4 (25:08):
Once you with Apple, they have you hook line and
sinker the.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Ghost of Steve Jobs from hell where I'm sure he is,
as you buy the balls for life.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Literally by the balls. It's very even updating. I've stayed
with Apple. I've been with Apple now for over a decade.
But the new iPhone seventeen, it's got all this technology.
I can't even get into my contacts list like they
have moved everything around. So I probably need a day
or two to sit with my phone and learn how
everything works.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I've just read the Steve Jobs biography. By the way,
not a nice man. Oh really, you can't deny his genius.
Very very clever, a visionary, and no one else could
have done what he did with Apple. But yeah, I
would have these tantrums and so abusive to people, and
would say the meanest things to people and turn on them,
but then would also burst into tears, oh wow, over
(26:04):
things when things were working. He does sound like a psychopathy.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
I wrote that was the book written about him after
he died.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
No, it was he commissioned the biography and said, I
want you to be honest, and it does talk about
all the great things he did, but also yeah, crying
in meetings a lot too. So anyway, calm, I got
Steve Jobs, worry about it. Steve Timmy cooks in charge. Now,
good on your Apple. Good people, keep it kiss and
we will see you next Week' Saturday at eight am,
everyone by.
