Oh my, he's on breakfast.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Radio for what only twelve years?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Only twelve years?

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Wasn't I a ball? Poor poor wife? So much to
talk about, Amy? Obviously, most of the show today is
going to be dedicated to the federal budget. It's been
the big news. You can not be you've been right
across this. So you've read the financial review?

Speaker 2 (00:33):
A yeah, where does that come? That?

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Is that part of one of the other I haven't
read any of it either, because I've realized that it's
the same crap no matter who's it's doing the budget
and what's the pressing there on, it's the same shit.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
It's kind of like the news just period.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Right.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
I don't watch that either anyway. There was nothing Okay,
you get three hundred dollars and they want you to
have more babies. That's they're the headlines. They treasure said, please, we.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Still can't afford anything because all the prices in everywhere on.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Up Exactly who's even more kids now, not me, no,
thank you now. One thing I did learn from our
first shows last weekend about you, Amy Gerard, is that
you're a tough nut to crack with the laughter You
don't you're not?

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Am I a tough night? Or are you just not funny?

Speaker 1 (01:14):
I had some killer jokes, man had them there and
there was just nothing. So I've brought in some help
this week, if you please, in the corner of the
studio here, I've brought in the fat woman from Baby Reindeer.
Are you ready to laugh?

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Oh god, that's what She's actually funnier than your jokes.
She's also terrifying.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
And then she stopped suddenly and it's really yeah, Chris,
how you doing? What's been going on this week?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Listen? I have had pretty much just a full week
of recovery. I actually this is this is a sign
of me getting old. Actually went to a wedding last
week and I am known to part I've taken a
little bit of aggressive dancing.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
I've seen this on your Can't you Can't Control Me?

Speaker 2 (02:05):
The music starts, the hips start moving, it just takes
over my body.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
They could play Everybody Hurts by Aria and I reckon
you'd still get.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Up, Yes, I would. The fallout from that, what I've
realized now now that I'm aging closer to forty, is
that everything hurts. The next day. I woke up after
the wedding and I was trying to get up to
go to the toilet, and I felt like I'd thrown
my hip out, like there was a twinge. I was
walking with a bit of a limp. I do this
really bizarre thing where I like to do some head
banging and I use my own head and I whip

(02:34):
it round and round in circles. I don't know, like
I'm eighteen at a link one A two concept, but
I do that all the time. And then I wake
up the next morning and I have pulled every single
muscle in my neck.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Okay, I got bad news for how old? So you're
approaching forty right? How close I was thirty eight? Okay,
you're thirty eight young at heart. I'm forty one, yes,
and I'll give you the bad news. I don't have
to dance or not at a wedding to wake up.
I saw you can do nothing and you just wake
up and thinks you could just sleep wrong? What hurts
today and you've slept on your arm and that's dead
for an hour.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Well, I actually have just started doing this thing, which
is incredibly embarrassing. But when I know that I'm going out,
whether it's to a wedding or engagement or just out
with the girlfriends, I take an any inflammatory before I
go out, and I honestly it works a treat, and
then a couple of neuropans in the morning just helps
ease off the pane. I'm I'm going to say that's

(03:25):
a that's a win for me.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Trust me, it's all downhill. There's something about forty. It's okay.
People turn thirty and go, oh my god, I can't
handle the hangovers. Okay, wait till you're forty. Go out
worse they get. They go for days, like days and
days once you're forty.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
My kid was in the hospital of getting his adnoids
and tonsils out and I just slept on this pull
out little bed and I must have slept wrong, and
I've woken up and I've I've got a gluey and
I've pulled like one of the muscles in my trap.
So I've walked out. I'm deaf in one ear and
I've walked out with my head pressed up to my shoulder.
People would have seen me walking out thinking, oh, you

(04:01):
must have just been a car accident or something and
I just slept wrong under an air convent.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
There's a lot of those terrible moments where you go, okay,
I'm old. This is the moment that's happened. Give us
a call thirteen one oh sixty five. When did you
realize you were old? Because there's a lot of One
of them is Another one is people stop laughing when
you fall over. You know, thirties forties, I reckon a
fall is funny because it's falling over.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Then one day it's not falling over, it's having a
fall and people and there's no laughter. There's gasps and
people running to check you're okay.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeep, yep, yep.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
There is nothing good as you get older, but you
do appreciate certain things like a dry fart. You actually
there's this, there's this relief after it that young people
will just never know. Also, I found my first gray
pubic hair the other day. What unfortunately it was in
a kebab ah there thank you Mark Oh got her

(04:58):
off air brought in the stre because we need a
laugh track.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Did you actually find a few like that? No, you
just wanted to get that sound effect going from baby. Yeah,
well you can find her now she's on the internet.
She might start talking you.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
Chris Amy went to a wedding last week and went
to bed and woke up sore all over because you're
an old, old lady.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
I'm an old Yeah, I am a bit of a
fossil these days.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
I getting on the dance though. No, we're just getting
up off the couch now. I find it's the noises
I've been pulled on. I never noticed. My wife says, I.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Go and does everything cracked for you? Like I My
wrists are cracking, my knees, everything.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Cracked, snap crackle, pops the dance. But it's good to
get up off the couch though. I have a few
goes like stuck. Oh my god, rocking back and a.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Little zimmer frame in the corner to help you out.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
You just need that momentum.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Do you ever disabled bathrooms and lower yourself with that
metal bowl?

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Disabled bathrooms are the best. It's like it's like a
business class of toilets. Yeah, you got to do it.
Apologies if you're waiting outside the Blue in a wheelchair,
though Sue has given us a call on thirteen one
O six five. So when did you realize you were old?

Speaker 4 (06:14):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Guys? Hi?

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Well, it happened when I was in the bottle shop.
This was a couple of years ago. And I was
in the bottle shop and I bought a bottle of whatever,
and I was waiting to get served in the lineup,
and two tradees were around me, and one of them
said to the other one, oh, we'll just let the
old lady go first.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
What were you said? A bottle of whatever? Was a
bottle of.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
Champagne or something.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Sherry, but you should.

Speaker 5 (06:45):
Let the old lady go first. I've looked at him
like if looks kill, I think he would have fallen
down dead. And the other guy realized and he said
to his mate, he goes, you know, oh, that's not
really the nice thing to say, right, And I looked
at him the god that said, and I said, you know,
where's your manners?

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Really?

Speaker 4 (07:03):
Where's your man? I was mortified.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
I thought, my god, that's how they see me.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Where's your manner? Young man?

Speaker 5 (07:11):
I would be old?

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Thank you. So Lisa has called as well. Lisa, was
there a moment you realized you were old. There was
a moment, There was a precise moment that I'm a
little bit embarrassed about.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Talk to us.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
I bent down.

Speaker 6 (07:27):
I bent down to pick up a piece of paper
off the floor in the kitchen of my own house,
and not only did my back lock up, but I
was put out for days days over a piece of paper.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I've heard this happen with sneezes as well, people putting
their back out from a.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Sneeze, sneezes, laughing too much. Yeah, I mean mainly mainly
mums wedding their pants. That's mainly me. But yeah, that's
that's quite unfortunate over a piece of paper. He didn't
even slip. No one drop paper.

Speaker 5 (08:02):
I didn't slip.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
No one dropped paper on the floor.

Speaker 6 (08:04):
You are dangerous old people out there.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
You notice it with the stuff, the stuff you watch
on TV and the things you read as well, like
that other people and other people's reaction to them. Because
I read this book by a guy called Jordan Peterson.
I read his book and someone said, oh, heyeah, the
right wing nut job, and you go, oh, well is
he It all just sounded like common sense to me,
so Ard Aimes. We spoke about one of the best

(08:33):
things about this job not doing kids sports on the weekend.
But last weekend I went to the proper sport and
for the first time took my son, Henry, who's six,
to his very first football game. I was so I
was more excited than you was going to say, because
I had those memories of going We didn't go to
the footy, but when dad took us to the cricket.

(08:54):
Sometimes going there with your dad.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
That dreaded sport that we're not enrolling any of our into.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
But yeah, oh yeah, because you've got to watch it all.
But watching proses, okay, when you're there is absolutely it's exciting.
People are blind, drunk and using words you hadn't heard.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Do you reckon that? He actually enjoyed it.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
He loved it because Ryan has.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Taken our boys to the footy as well, and he
was just like, yeah, still too young.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
They just want to be a part of it and
like what dad likes.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Well, they liked it for about the first thirty minutes
and then he was like peppering them with snacks and stuff,
and then they're like, Okay, we're bored.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Henry's really nerdy so he follows all the numbers and stuff,
and he likes adding up the scores, and he gets
the ladder up and goes, ah, so if this team wins,
I'll go over this team the ladder.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
He's Einstein rain Man.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Yeah, let's go with Einstein. That was much nicer Einstein.
So he parked in the city, walked over and his
first taste of the city was at the car park lift.
You know what car park liftings always, so someone had
used it as a toilet, obviously, but you know they
always that. They make funny noises and clunking, and they're
bumpy and the lights flickering, and you you don't fear

(10:00):
for your life, but you you go, I'm going to
be trapped in here for three or four hours.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
Yeah, am I all of a sudden claustophobic in this lift? Yes?
I am?

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Sweet Henry said, has someone used this lift as a toilet?
And I said, yes, I think they have.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
They look at the city from a very different standpoint.
I think we're always a little bit like on guard.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Right, and they noticed things that we take for granted
because we just know them and expect them, and I
never we walk through and he goes, Dad, why does
the whole city smell like we? And I'm like, you
know what it does. I just blocked that out because
I know the CBD.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Smells of WE, especially train stations.

Speaker 5 (10:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
He also said, why are there so many message shops everywhere?
And I'm what's he talking about? I realized it was massage, right,
So so many massage shops. I'm like, ah, you know
when you're older, When you're old, you know the master's shop.
It had a great time at the footy. He loved it.
But yeah, did his vocabulary certainly grant because because.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
He would have been here a few choice words.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Absolutely, you know, he didn't even know all about how
the referee is that much of a Apparently the referee's
eyes are painted on and.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
He looks he is about to get cancer.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
We hit beep on that one. But you get the
idea Henry's little virgins because he usually only his really
foul language from his mother when trying to drive.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh yeah, okay, not from you though, ever, right, I'm
not when you're playing what is it fortnite? Trying to
take down twelve.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Year old call of duty? I swear year olds and
that's that's my private time and that's when he's in
bed away from the kids.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Has he been using any of that language that he's
learned at the.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Footy, Yes, he's brought it home. Are your kids swear
as my kids are? Yes, so they know the words,
but they know that's the time and a place.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Well, they know the words, but they also know that
they're naughty. And my thing is, when you're an adult,
you can choose to use them whether or not you
want to by then, but as as a kid, you're
not allowed to use them. The problem is I occasionally
let one slip at home and now what's happening is
they're actually pulling me up. Mommy's said naughty word and
I'm like, Or if they're in the car and my

(12:16):
girlfriends are on the phone through bluetooth through the car,
they will be shaming all my girlfriends.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
When you enter the phone, you know you're on speaker
straight away.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
No, no, no, no, All of my friends know that
they're on speaker. But I don't know. Maybe I've just
got potty mouth girlfriends.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
But do it anyway, They do it anyway. How hardcore
of your kids gone with swear words at home? We've
had air f.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Obviously we've had F and weh too. They've never said C.
I've never said C. They probably haven't heard the sea bomb.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
You're how old? How old?

Speaker 2 (12:48):
You're eight? Oldest eight, six and four.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I've heard it at eight. Oh really she'd know.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
It, she'd know it.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Oh my daughter would know it.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Okay, you should. I actually don't think she has heard
the sea bomb. I think when my son is eight,
I think he will have all his friends. I'm not
going to say it on live live radio, but I
don't know how I react. Sea bomb is quite it's
out there.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
She's got you for a mother. She knows that if
she ever needs the definition, she's just got it right
there in front of her every day.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Oh wait, are you calling me a sea word?

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Yeah, but it was sort of to be.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Do you want to get Martha?

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey Martha, did you hear that
from Baby Rainbow?

Speaker 2 (13:33):
That's all you get it?

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Thank you, Martha. Someone's laughing, Chris.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Hey, I want to ask you. Have you watched the
Tom Brady tom Brady where I can say celebrities names
Tom Brady roast.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
You're about as into American football all as I am.
I can till I've tried to get into that sport.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
I want to, but can I tell you my husband
watches NFL non stop and he has explained the rules
and how it's played that many times, and I still
don't understand it.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
It's so boring.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
I don't understand. Like it's like just a bunch of
animals running at each other with headgear and padding on
their shoulders. But I don't understand all the plays.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I want to do it because Super BOWLS was on
and like people and it's like Monday, ten am and
they're like, come when we got twenty dollars buckets of
Budweiser and wings and the fry chickens. I just want
it for the food.

Speaker 6 (14:28):
I know.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
Anyway, we've segued into NFL. But I watched this shing.
My girlfriend actually called me and she's like, please tell
me you've watched the Tom Brady Roast on Netflix, and
I was like, I didn't even know what it was
all about. Anyway, I've tuned in and wow. Firstly, the
thing that shocked me the most was the fact that
they actually apply to be on it, like they apply

(14:50):
to be selected so that they can go on public TV,
live television and just get publicly shamed.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
They think it's going to be good for them. They think,
people go, man, how cool is he? He's got a
billion dollars but he can laugh at himself.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
I just I don't know, Maybe I am just a
bit of a.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Soft could think of another word. Just go with that one,
soft Willie.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
But I was very, very taken back, Like obviously Giselle,
his beautiful, hot ass wife has left him. Yeah, and
he apparently I had to do some deep diving because
I was so blown away by it that apparently she's
she said to him, hey, you need to retire. You
need to spend more time with us as a family.
You need to retire and be more present, have bit

(15:38):
more of a balance, And he has just ignored all
of her well wishes and just basically told her to
take up a hobby. And he suggested jiu jitsu, and
that is who she's then started shagging, shagging. I'm English.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Now she's reading the jiu jitsu.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
She is banging her jiu jitsu instructor. And somebody was like,
she does jiu jitsu eight times a day, five days
a week. She's still a white.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Man loves this ju jitsu and she comes home, she
is wrecked, covered in sweat, hairs, a mess.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
The only bruises she has are on her bottom, and
he's just sitting there, just coping it. And he's actually
come out saying that, if anything, he regrets going on
it for one. But if anything, it's really realized that
he's been a bit of a lousy dad, and it's
put the whole like parenting thing into perspective.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Did you hear what he said about why he regrets it.
I didn't like the way that affected my kids. You
don't see the full picture all the time, so I
think the it's a good lesson, like for me as
a parent, I'm going to be a better parent as
I go forward because of it. Don't bring the kids
into it. You could not so uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
You cried yourself to sleep that night.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
This is a man who never he was untouchable.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
I didn't realize you weren't allowed to like say something back.
I would have just been like, yeah, I make more
money than all of you here.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
I think they get a chance like later on, but
while someone.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
I'm doing and they're just going him sit there and
just dig in the knife in the worm that sprinkling
salt on it, and then pepper and more so on.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
These roasts are obviously the pro comedians, and they're all
written things. Have you copped a really good roast line
in your lifetime about you? What do people make fun
of about you?

Speaker 2 (17:19):
You know what? My my entire childhood growing up with boys,
all we basically did was roast each other. And it
was I don't know, maybe we were softly bulling each
other for our whole entire childhood. I will pay one
good call from my brothers. I'll never forget Tom what
he used to say to me. I got everything from Ranger.

(17:40):
A real standout was when he told me, because obviously
I've got freckles everywhere, was he told me that I'd
been shipped on through a fly screen.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh that's good, Chris.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
A quick question. I actually have a small conflict of
intro in one of my friendship groupes.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Now, is it your girls all fighting with each other
and competitive?

Speaker 2 (18:05):
No, one's fighting and no, no, it's more just there's
one mom who's gotten a few of the other mom's
off side, and she's so lovely, but obviously we're all parents.
But there's one mom in particular who loves to kind
of discipline everyone else's kids like she will. She jumps
in and she will tell off other people's children like

(18:25):
she will pull them up about their manners. She pulls
them up like if they're coming over to like grab
something and it's not theirs, she will be reprimanding them
and she's not their mom. It's like she's socially unaware
of what she's doing. It's like she thinks she's reprimanding
her own children, but it's not. It's everybody's and so
it's gotten a few of the mom's off side. I

(18:47):
want to know your take on that, Like, would you ever.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
No, it sounds like she sounds like a punish Ah.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
The thing is, it comes from a good place. It's
almost like she's speaking up in defense of the other
mom I hate.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Comes from a good place. So many people, Oh, they
mean well, and you go, no, they're just awful. No,
I will not Okay, let me. The caveat here is
if a kid is like punching my kid or poking
them in the face with a stick, Oh no, if
they're going to lose an eye, I'll step in.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
I'll punch your kid.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Yeah. Yeah. But apart from that I am sitting back
and letting your little Johnny just make a complete ass
of himself because it's not my job and I'm not
teaching him his life lessons. If he wants to grow
up and be a rude adult, be like that in
these job interviews, good luck, it's not my thing. I

(19:37):
don't care.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I don't I know. I know what you're saying. I
tend to if I see something happening. Obviously violence is
out of the picture, like we would obviously step in.
But if it was just more like someone was leaving
my kids out, or someone was being a bit mean
or saying mean words, or you know, I will always
I give the mom a bit of a grace period,

(19:59):
and I will, you know, maybe be signaling to her
with my eyes like, hey, like your kids being a
bit of a right bag, like feel free to step
in here. I'll give her a little bit of a
grace period, and then if she does it, I will
kind of intervene and be like, hey, guys, like let's
all get along and you know, why don't we all
do this, and throw myself into it in that way,

(20:20):
which I don't know if that's right or wrong.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
I know the people you're talking about, though, who will
jump in And there's something about I think it is
a cultural thing, you know, because there's the whole It
takes a village to raise a child, and we're all
in this together. Because I do know Italians and Greeks,
and maybe it's a European thing. Yeah, I find they
are so much more likely to jump in and yell
at other people's kids potentially. Yeah, it's the community.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Well, this this lady is Italian, so.

Speaker 1 (20:46):
That I'm right again. Ye, Chris Amy, you're telling us
about your friend who happens to be Italian, and that's fine,
nothing to do with it. I'm sure loves telling off
other people's kids. I don't know. Yeah, she means well,
I just don't. It's pissing a lot of people off that.
It sounds like it's ruffling some feathers. We want to

(21:07):
hear from you on thirteen one oh sixty five. Is
it okay to tell off other people's kids? Now? Tasha
has given us a call love the name good.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
Night, Hello, how are you guys?

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Tell me you'd be a real piece of work if
someone accidentally called you Tasha? Right, I get it.

Speaker 5 (21:23):
All the time.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
There's no R in your name? Why is it Tasha?

Speaker 2 (21:26):
It's Tasha's beautiful name.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
It is thank you. Is it okay to tell off
other people's kids?

Speaker 4 (21:33):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (21:33):
No, absolutely not, I would never thank you?

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yes, exciting with Paige? Would you can? I ask a
question though, if someone was telling off your kids in
a roundabout way, like not overstepping the mark, but also
still kind of reprimanding your kids, would you be okay
with that?

Speaker 6 (21:48):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (21:48):
I think it depends on what the situation is. Like
if if my kids do something really bad, then I'd
be sign with it. Do you want to like tell
them off in a like timely manner? I'm not later
when I forget about it, but like if it was
in a really intense way, I probably wouldn't appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
And it probably also depends on like how close you
are with the girl. Like, if it's a girl to
know you've known your whole life, fine, go forth. But
if it's a girl you've just met from I don't know,
your mother's group you've been in for two weeks?

Speaker 3 (22:16):
Yeah, hold fine, not the right exact.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
It's like you're doing the other parents work for them.
If you're trying to teach other kids manners. It's just
let them grow up to be jerks. Tasha Amy was
telling me during the song there that what she does
is if someone's rude to her kid, she goes up
to that other kid and just suddenly behind them, like
we'll pinch their arm and make them cry. Not definitely happened.

(22:41):
Thank you, Tasha, appreciate the call. Grace is called in
as well, Grace. Is it okay to tell off other
people's kids?

Speaker 6 (22:48):
Oh? Absolutely, guys, I would one hundred percent do it again.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
Oh are you Italian? You're not?

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Are you No?

Speaker 5 (22:57):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
See we've broken that stereo, get the stereotype.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
Are you picking up their manners or their bad manners,
or are you picking up like when they're leaving your
kid out, or you know, potentially being a little bit mean.

Speaker 6 (23:11):
Well, I mean I think you could do that anyway.
But my little story that I've got is about when
I backed up another mum. So you know, we're muddling
through this whole motherhood stuff and it's really hard, yep,
and I think we need to have each other's back
sometimes and a little bit of a nudge from a

(23:32):
stranger is more than enough often to get the kids to.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Can I tell you now, I'm so with you right
there because my kids, I could tell I could yell
at my kids so I'm blue in the face and
they won't listen, but if another mom told them off,
they would toe the lines so quickly. So I actually
loved that theory that you were essentially having the mum's
back and stepping up to help her. Yeah, totally, I'm

(23:57):
with Grace.

Speaker 6 (23:58):
Yeah, it's going to be within reason, right, of course,
you can't be going around out being a vigilante kid.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
Thanks for the calls, guys, Do we have an answer
on that?

Speaker 2 (24:09):
I don't feel like we kind of. I feel like
people are just going to do whatever it is they
want to do. It's quite divided, but I feel like
I really like the last caller. I like that she
had the mum's back. Like, I don't know, I don't
think there's any right wrong answer.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
It's you know what it's like, do you do you
It's like washing your hands after you go to the toilet.

Speaker 6 (24:26):
Right.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Chris, he's a private investigator in the States, has come out.
He's from Connecticut, and he says he knows the one
sign that a man is definitely cheating on his partner.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Just one sign.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Yeah, and if you're going to believe someone, it's some
creep in a trench coat that looks in people's windows.
You know, what do you think it might be that
a guy's cheating? What's the giveaway?

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Okay, if I had to, I would think that all
of a sudden, a guy would be starting to go
to the gym.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Not bad.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
Yeah right, and actually my husband has just joined him.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
So what's his car?

Speaker 5 (25:02):
Like?

Speaker 2 (25:03):
His car it's a super UK.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Well no, I was thinking about like how clean it is,
because this private investigator.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
His car is absolutely filthy.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Because this private investigator reckons if your car is really clean,
if the man's car is clean and tidy, that's the
giveaway that he's cheating, because presumably men do not want
to go and pick up their size with crap all
through the car and you know, kids stuff or dirt.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
I mean, that's so ridiculous because most people would just
be like meeting at hotel rooms. He's getting picked up.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
This guy knows he's a private investigator. He said, that
is the giveaway. They clean the car before they pick
up the girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Really Yeah, Well I'm fine then, because Ryan's car is
literally like a wheely bin.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Well, he said, he just started going to the gym. Fit.
People have stinky cars always because they leave all their
gym crap in there, and it's like and they's tight.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
Well, it's that and like the kids. He occasionally drives
the kids to him from school, and he doesn't He
just doesn't clean it. He takes no. I always feel
like there's certain people take pride in certain places, whether
it's the home, or their car or their bedrooms. For Ryan,
it's pretty much none of them.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
I do clean my car. When I go to pick
up my friend Anna, Oh what, I will throw everything
in the back. Well, she's a friend who's she pretty Yeah,
and she's younger and she doesn't have kids, so I
figure she doesn't want to sit there in a pile
of kids crap.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Okay, but are you cleaning the back seat as well?

Speaker 1 (26:41):
And throw it all in the back. I feel like
you're just safe there.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
And you think I'm going to talk about it on
the radio, I'm actually sleeping with someone.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
No, I don't.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Okay, Yeah, my car's messy as hell, or do you
know what you're talking about?

Speaker 2 (26:54):
Ryan's car is actually messy his hell. So I feel good.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Okay, So you need to do is actually find a
woman who's willing to sleep with a married man who
has a fetish for bluey books, Old Sultan.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
And sand Yeah, Melli, Jim clo, Hey, I want to
ask you, do you have parents like do your parents
ever babysit your kids?

Speaker 5 (27:15):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Yeah, all the time. God do they.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Love to remind you that you were somewhat of a
perfect child and your kids in comparison or not.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Sometimes they do definitely have the rose. But also whenever
my son is a total turd, they'll also be like,
you deserve this, that was exactly what you were like
as well. Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Okay, So I have parents who are completely different to that, apparently,
And I know that this is an absolute lie as well,
because I remember I remember being a bit of an
arsehole as a child. But if you ask my parents,
we were We were the children from the sound of music,
We were the von trapped children. We were basically seen
and not heard. We never ever tantrumed. My dad loves

(28:02):
to remind me that you and you and your brothers
never behave like this. Say you you never tantrum, You never.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Spoke back to us. If a kid never tantrums, then
there's mentally something wrong with theause. It's part of the
age appropriate brain develop building itself.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
I agree. I feel like I was like Dad, were
we all mutes? Like did you give us all the
bottomi is at three or something? I want to hope
that we did tantrum.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Not only did you kids used to eat your vegetables,
you were.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Vege literally sitting at the tables like mutes. But no,
if you ask my dad, we were actually swimming unassisted.
Before the age of two. We would be able to
dive into the pool, which I know is a crock
of heard and swim underneath his legs like little tadpoles
at under before the age of two.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
How old is your dad?

Speaker 2 (28:53):
He's sixty eight now.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
It's probably too early for dementia. That's all.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Yeah, you know what I think it is. I think
there's something in the that just like it blocks out
all of that, all those negative memories, right Like I
feel the same way about childbirth. I remember having my daughter,
and I had quite a horrific first birth, and I
remember leaving the hospital being like, I'm never doing that again.
I'm this is where I have only having one child,

(29:19):
and then over the course of a few months, I
was like, it wasn't that bad.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
That's like the human brain like that. It's evolution. If
women remembered everything about childbirth, we would go extinct. The
human race would do it because women wouldn't let men
touch them. Ever. Again, that's right in case they got pregnant.
So but I thank you to our brains. Women. Go ah,
you know what, pushing that like bowling ball out of
my beach was not that bad. Maybe I'll give it

(29:46):
another go. Yeah, you can have sex.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
I'll tell you what. Though we were my parents were
babysitting on the weekend for us. We had gotten home
on the Sunday. Granted it had been raining all day long,
and the kids are all inside and both my boys
potentially have UNDI knows ADHD right, like they need to
be outside burning off steam at all times. They haven't,
so my parents are cooped up inside with his wild animals,

(30:09):
and we've walked in and my kids they try and
keep it somewhat together in front of my in front
of other people.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
But they bottle it up for when you get home,
and that they.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
The minute we walked in the door. It was like
all of the emotions. They were flinging themselves off the couches.
They were rolling around on the floor like trying to
chicken snitzle themselves in all the fluff that was on
the floor. It was a disaster. One of the kids
said something to Ryan along the words of.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Shut up and your parents, and your parents are standing
there like, my god, my god used to speak like that.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
No, that is exactly He wasn't even he didn't even
have to say anything. He just had his mouth shut
and he had his eyes down and he was shaking
his head, like we have failed as parents.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Was your dad just reaching to under his belt as
the kids were running.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
The basically from a thrashing Yeah, but he was just
like he was like he was ashamed of me, Like
you've lost control of your kids, Amy, and Ryan, what's happened?
Like you've got no control. You would have never spoken
to us like that. And it's what I get a
lot from him, and I just I would love to say, Dad,
I would love to see you parenting children now in

(31:21):
today's age, with all of the technology that's at their
little fingers and all.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
The things you can't say and all the people. You
can't make fun of that.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
You can't even put your fingertip on another child's shoulder, right, people,
you can't do anything.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
That's the boomers though. They just everything. When they were
growing up, everything was well harder, and they did it better,
and they did it better. And they'll remind you about
the interest rates, right like the kids these days complainer
they can't buy a house. Interest rates were eighteen percent
under Paula. Have you heard that one?

Speaker 3 (31:49):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (31:50):
Of course I didn't put Paul Gatings my dad's idol.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
Gross.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
My dad likes to remind me that they never they
had two jobs and they worked hard, and they never
went out, and they had cheat and crackers on the
balcony for a date night. And I said, yeah, Dad,
your house was also nineteen thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
Yeah, exactly, renting for the very different Chris Page and
Amy Yard
