Speaker 1 (00:10):
I heard podcasts here more mixed one or two point
three podcasts, playlists and listen live on the free iHeart app.
We have Rebecca Moss in the studio with this here.
Just esteemed podcaster these days, but former radio host, former
Channel ten newsreader. Yeah, you to come back around to you,

(00:32):
I'm sure, Morcy. For those of us that have, I
mean a lot of you have grown up watching her
on TV. A lot of you have. She has been
the voice of the world to you, perfect woman, perfect journalists,
esteemed colleague.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
There's a bus and it's near my bus.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Can you please reveal to everyone what we're talking about?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
I Rebecca Mors have a tram stamp.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Ah, she does.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
There's a backstory part part.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
So I got it on my honeymoon, so twenty years ago.
You know, when you're newlyworeds like you're young and in love.
Doesn't last MAXI you wait, ah, And I wanted to
get a tat, but because I was behind the news desk,
I couldn't get it anywhere exposed. I couldn't get it,
you know, like on a shoulder blade or on a

(01:31):
on a forum. So I was like, let's get it
on our lower backs. We got matching one. So my
husband James has a B and I.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Have a J for James.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, which, as a raging feminist, to be branded with
my husband's initial like a cow.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Is so degrading.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
How would you describe the font for everyone at home?

Speaker 3 (01:53):
It's a real old school font. I wanted it to
look like a typewriter Jay, you know, because we're both journalists.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
But it doesn't. And you know how tattoo's kind of
age and they go that like bluey green color. It's
peak pea in that area.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
And in my defense, twenty years ago, I was quite sheltered.
I didn't even know it was called a tramp stamp.
I just thought it was a lower back tattoo. So
when I got back from the honeymoon and I said
I've got a tattoo, and I.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Was like, oh my god, she's got a tramp stamp.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
And I was like, I'm not a tramp. The worst
thing was for my poor husband James. Apparently it's not
a tattoo spot that straight men.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Get, not traditionally, not tradition.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Apparently it's got quite a purpose.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
Yeah yeah, and he was not aware of that either.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
So we are both embarrassed.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
He's got something to aim for when you guys break up.
So what did your parents think of this?

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Well, my mum had already been mortified by the fact
that I got a belly button ring when I was
about sixteen in some somebody's backyard room, so she thought
it was just another belly button ring stage that I
was to go through, apart from the factor was permanent.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
So they weren't thrilled.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
They didn't love it.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Do you have great regrets?

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I would actually like to get it removed, but I
feel like it would be maybe bad.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Judy for the marriage. Oh do you know what I mean?
Like to get it removed? No, you've inked the skin exactly.
If I've got it taken off, things might unravel.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
What would you do, Rebecca Laws, If let's say the
twenty two year old daughter of yours came home with
a tramp stamp as you refer to it.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
She is a clean skin.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Look if she got because the thing is about tats, now,
is there all those beautiful little artie.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Fine line ones.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
So if she got a little fine line like on
a finger, on a wrist, that would be okay. If
she got a big, ugly letter on her lower back.
I would throw her out.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
What's your advice to young women who think they're madly
in love are going to be with that person for
the rest of their life, wanting to brand themselves with
an initial, What's your piece of advice? Do not get
your own name before you get the name.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Alright, Look, we're gonna put a photo of Rebecca Morris's
tramp stamp on the mix.
