Speaker 1 (00:00):
You know how you always remember that where you were
when Princess Diana died. You remember we were when the
towers simmed down. Yeah, I remember where I was when
my little guy, my ten year old, found out about
the birds and the bees, and I'll always remember it.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Hence this tale. I'm about to tell.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
You what happens.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Okay, ready, this is what happened in my launder room
a couple of weekends ago. So we're sitting down watching
a family movie, something about Mary.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Or starting to push the boundaries of family movie.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Great movie, though, awesome movie, so funny, very funny. There's
one particular scene in that movie, the famous scene. Now,
if you are listening, mums and dads, it's okay, I'm
not good. I'm going to dance around things, so you're
okay PG.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Well it isn't. Yeah, our show's PG.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
So there's that pivotal scene in the movie that everyone remembers.
When you say something about Mary, they think of the
hair scene.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Cameron, hair gel, the.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Hair gel, which isn't in fact hair gel. It's something else.
And so I said to my husband, Jimmy. We're watching
it with our two kids.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
One's ten, one's thirteen, and I said to Jimmy, let's
just fast forward that part and everything else is fine,
and he's like, nah, it's actually just talked to him
about it.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Let's be real.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
It's an integral part of the movie. I want them
to get the full story building experience.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
But I'm I get nervous with that stuff. I don't
like them losing their innocence.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
For clarity, thirteen year old is the oldest. Yes, has
he had any of the chats?

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Oh, he would know bits more. Yeah, he knows more.
It's more than ten year old that doesn't know really anything,
and he's kind of very inn here's my baby, he
really I don't want him to know anything.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
Big guys that look up.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
You're like yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
So we're all sitting there and I was like, oh
my god, this is it. Jimmy's probably right, I'm going
to go with this. Let's not fast forward it. And
so I was like nervously sitting there like giggling because
I'm immature, and it was all happening. There's a scene
where the thing happens, the guy does what he needs
to do. We all understand what I'm saying here.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
If you haven't seen the film, it's Ben Stiller, right, Yeah,
he has some alone time. Yeah, and the product of
his alone time somehow finds its way to Cameron Diaz
his hair. She thinks it's hair gel.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
And so my husband's explained to him while that people
to the moment is happening and they're like, why is he
doing that?

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Why are you doing that?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
And Jimmy's like, well, when a man needs to relax,
sometimes relaxing route and sometimes you know, he's got about
to go on a hot day and he doesn't want
to be embarrassed and get the thing down there that
goes straight. So he just did that before. Anyway, this
is how I'm dancing around it. This is how ten
year old know about the straight thing. Yeah, of course
he knows about the straight thing. Yeah, yeah, that's what

(02:30):
we call it in the straight thing, mom, it's straight. Anyway,
So the scene's happening, the hair, the stuff, the sticky
stuff goes on Cameron Diaz hair.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
I thought, well, this is a moment.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
I'm going to just bress record on my phone and
I got a little bit of audio of Alfie's reaction.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Have a listen.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
So he's gagging that what looks like yuck. And so
he knows that that thing there is how you make babies. Sure,
and so he then said to me, so do you
just then get it from there?

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Does mum eat? It? Is that how I became a baby?

Speaker 3 (03:22):
Mummy may have previously, but no, not in this scenario.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
That is not how it works.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
So then we had to describe, explain, you know, it
actually goes is somewhere else and rah. Anyway, that is
how he has learned about the birds and the beest
through something about Marrit. It's actually obviously he wouldn't do
it when they're younger, but at that age I'm quite
glad we did because now it was like we had
a bit of a laugh, a family laugh. We said,
we only talk about this with us, We don't go
and talk about this with our friends and things like that. Yeah,

(03:48):
but that's how you found out about the birds.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Of the bee educational? Yeah. All I can remember from
learning about the birds and the bees is I reckon.
We had like year nine sex out at school and
there was the banana and the condom.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yes, or the tennis racket.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Okay, see that's you nine. That's quite late, all right.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
We want to know from you How did you find
out about the birds and the bees?

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I reckon mine was, where did you come from? That
book with the little chubby old couple.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
They get in their little bed and they do their
little thing, and then they have a baby bird.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Ain one. I tell you three. How did you find
out or how have you told your children about the
birds and the bees?

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Yeah, we'd love to know.
