Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:10):
I heard podcasts here more mix one or two point
three podcasts, playlists and listen live on the free iHeart app.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Hey. If you're going out for a drink tonight, good
for you.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Enjoy it. It's the weekend. If you're an eighteen year
old or a nineteen year old or a twenty year
old and you're going out for a drink, there's one
less place that you're going to be allowed to go, Sora,
which is on Pirie Street. It is a beautiful bar,
lovely setting. You are now no longer allowed to be
in that bar after nine point thirty. If you are

(00:40):
between eighteen and twenty years old, you can still go
for dinner. You can go for drinks once it HiT's
nine thirty. It's a twenty one plus bar.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
It is a very cool place. If you've been, it's
almost like you're in New York City. You go up
to the roof and you look over the city. It's beautiful,
it's very classy, and the d floor goes off.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
I've beat on the d flour and I'm forty plus. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
But why are they saying what's their problem with young people?

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Problem?

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Is? Well, the statement only sort of says it's like
we want to push people into the other venues which
are great for young people. Cherry playing, Jane Fabric, lovh Boy,
blah blah blah, yeah cool. I think it all sort
of comes back to maybe a few people aren't happy
with the younger crowd coming in a little differently and
being a little less classy than what the establishment's trying

(01:31):
to be.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
I would say that the worst, the least classiest age
and the riff raff are more likely to be the
older people more like.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Twenty five you reckon?

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Yeah, I think the eighteen year olds you've just like
it's the first time that you get to go out,
so you try hard, and you want to look good,
and you you want to feel like an adult, so
you look good. And I think at the door, rather
than being an age thing, it should be well, no,
you look foul like you're a slapper.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
You shouldn't be here like keeping keep it we're active.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Where or you can't look like just you know, kucky.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah, you can't come in with thongs. Here's the thing,
you have to be classy.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Here's why I disagree with you, and I will defend
SAA to an extent here When I was eighteen, and
I first started gat going out as someone who pretty
much hit puberty at seventeen and a half with about
twenty minutes to go in year twelve, I was an
absolute pest as an eighteen year old. I would not
want to hang out with me as an eighteen year old.
Why what did you used to do? I was just like,

(02:35):
I was so naive, and I had zero street smarts,
and but you thought you knew everything exactly. And I
was an pompous little idiot and I was probably arrogant,
and I dressed like a moron. And I would have
brought a very classy establishment like this.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
I would have definitely brought the vibe down.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
At what age did that change though, Probably like twenty
twenty one, I was like, Okay, I sort of understand
my place in going out now.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I don't know. I think it's r I think it's weird.
I think the worst, yeah, the worst people in their
mid twenties. I was very classy.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I don't imagine that at all. But I wasn't like
riff raff. I tried to look good. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I think it's I like the fact that at Sora
you can go there and you can be on the
dance floor and you're forty or there's a twenty year
old next to you dancing.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
I think that's great.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I like that this has divided so much opinion online.
There's a bunch of people that actually agree with it.
Jumped into comments before they turned off. All their comments
say keeping it classy, finally a venue setting the standards high.
There was another one that said, I love this rule.
It used to be playing Jane. Another place used to
be great for an older crowd until it got overrun
by the eighteen year olds.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
This is the classy chill vibe we've missed. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
Then there's like this other person that has a has
a name of.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Idea that is their name. I have no idea how
to type it in every day, but they wrote something insightful.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Half the young crowd of like nineteen twenty year olds
actually dress and act more class within twenty one year
old plus.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
I agree. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Another one just came out and really had a crack
at the venue. You're not premium, so you're debt laden.
Then you're desperate.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Oh no, Sora's fancy.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
They do delicious food and the dance floor is great,
it's pretty, and there can be some really messy forty
year olds. By the way, some forty year olds are
so wild and gross that they shouldn't be allowed into part.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
You could go in there and if they say, Hailey
Beers is coming, get me in, Get the Lemon Ruskies ready,
Girl's gone wild.
