names on, and wherever the darts land, that's who. Let's
why the universe chooses, versus the people who make these
decisions every week, who have knowledge. So I'm I'm winning.
I've picked more winners than the experts.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Have smart versus start, I had a blue balloon and
a Morone balloon, and you threw darts at me.

Meg's mum didn't have a cassette place yet a CD
player no, So Steve Hearn has come to the rescue
and donated a tape player to me. It's like a boombox,
and I was going to just run it through the microphone,
but now Jeff has wired it into the desk.

As the tourists, they had so much chemistry that they
left the tourists and became.

The Eurythmics, the solo travelers.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Unfortunately, the Eurythinx Dave based Stewart and Lennox had too
much chemistry.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
That was the thing that a great chemistry. But they
couldn't live with each other, couldn't live without each other.
It's that kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (12:00):

Speaker 3 (12:01):
We spoke to Dave Stewart one time about Annie Lennox's
recent marriage and he said, she get married and yeah,

and we make food from TikTok.

Speaker 8 (13:13):
And we eat it.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Well, I can see that you're excited. Your nipples are erect,
So let's get started. It's state of origin tonight, and
time is of the essence. Lots of people are going
to think, what are we going to have? We're gonna
have pies. Were gona have pizza.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
I'm going to gat Gallo pie, I said to Gallo,
make me the biggest pie in the land.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Gallo. Set it out on the window sill, and make
sure you no ruffian steal it.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Okay, then you got out of your time machine and
got sensible. The thing is, you don't always have time
to make your savory and you're sweet. So I've seen
a recipe on TikTok that could save all of that today,
cookie pizza. So you get cookie dough. I've got a
stack of it here. There's no gloves, so this is
going to be manky, and you flatten it out to
make a big disc. I'm going to make one giant

(13:56):
one to go in the air fry. Okay, let's just
munch all that down. I'm just I've got a big
How would you describe what I'm.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Doing, Brendan, You're beating the cookie dough.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm going to pretend this is a rolling macron and
I'm his wife and that's his face.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
What do you think about that? Where they would just
play fighting, or is that they've.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Played it down. I don't know what to make of it.
I would like someone's punching me in.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
The face like that.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Well what about that time we're doing a press conference
and you shove the microphone into my face?

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Oh well, go and tell the FEDS if you're concerned
about what.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
It was there on Channel seven News. All right, it
wasn't like it was hidden. So here we are. What's
this called love? I've got a big disc of cookie dough.
Is that big? I would say that's a big disc.
It's a Do you think that's big enough?

Speaker 3 (14:37):
Because otherwise I certainly hope if Carlo is going to
make me a pie, need a.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Bigger window sill. So here's what we've got. I now
have to I should have done this on the paper.
Should if you put some sort of paper underneath it?

Speaker 3 (14:49):
We go.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
So there's a giant cookie dough on top of that.
Now I'm going to put tomato paste on top of it.
Oh yeah, look at that. So I smeared tomato paste
on top of my cookie dough. Rub that around to
the edges. That is now see the cookie dough is
my pizza.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
But if you're giving me the Domeo frown.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
On top of this, now I'm going to put some
grated cheese.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
You know, I've got a cold.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Luckily I can't smell it.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
I'm by fire. Is anyone listening, put.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
Yourself out, anyone listening, and then you're enjoying yourself more
than the rest of us could put together. And then
on top of this, I'm going to put some pepperoni,
so I'll slice it up a little bit.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
So here we are.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
We've got cookie dough, which is our pizza base. We
have tomato paste on top of that, we have cho
that salami cheese. Do you like salami?

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I do? I love it very much.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
And then we have salami on top of that. This
is now going to go into the air by it
and we are going to find out whether cookie pizza
is a thing and whether we like it is a thing. Okay, great,
which is great? Your nipples can calm or ride down
my nipples I'm going to lose an eye.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
What's cold in here at Carlo's making that pie? Jones Nations.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
Let's get on down to the Jones and demand arms
in the pub test Today, parents to fame teachers online
could now be fined one thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Well, this is a proposal a chair of the Victorian
Education Complaints Authorities asking for this, saying that gossip and
slander has peaked at sixty five percent, while cyber bullying
of pair of teachers is up by nearly eighty eight percent.
Lots of people are seeing this right across the board
and no one's no one's saying it isn't happening, but
others are saying finding the parents isn't the way to

(16:42):
do it. But do we need a line in the sand.
I'm sure if your teachers we might talk about this
later on. If you're a teacher, I'm sure you're copying
a lot of stuff. People are unfiltered these days in
how they speak to everybody.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
People are unfiltered online. But we have a certain set
of codes and standards.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
We just go to go Willie nearly slander everyone now people,
normal people, people of society on social media are now
paying the price, which is good.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
I think it's about time.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
If you say something online anonymously, you should be able
to back that up.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Well, this isn't even particularly anonymous. I think this is
schools getting in touch with parents. Parents who touch with schools.
Parents have a lot more power in the school than
they used to.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
Yeah, well back in the old days.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
Well, the only way a parent would come up to
the schools if you're in trouble for something, and that
was it.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
And now you get parents talking about your projects, talking
about your bad marks. Parents are interfering in a lot
of different ways, but doing it quite abusively. On the
other hand, you do get some parents who are saying
that the school doesn't listen enough, that their kids are
being taught bad or being bullied in the schools and listening, Yeah,
that's true. So how do you feel here? Parents who
defame teachers online or up to the school getting fined?

(17:51):
Finding school parents? As it past the pub.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Test, we'd love to hear from you. What have you done?
Have we got to lay on in case? Amanda Sweat
and state of origin tonight, mate against meat, state against state.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yes, I'm optimistic for New South Wales, but you know
what happened when I went to pick my winners. We
do the footy tips on a Thursday. I throw darts
at you and you hold up various ping pong.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Tipper and it was so it was the most dreadful
segment on the show.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
Used to sound entertaining, but to get these football players,
you wouldn't think it.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Was that hard. They're all golfing earlier money. But even
still they couldn't show up on top.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
So we thought what we'd do this shoe is have
the pundits. Is that what you call people who know
what they do? We have experts. We take the smarts
the smarts, and I let the universe aside by throwing
dants at you.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
So you had me with two balloons, a pink balloon
and a blue. How we picked us marine balloon and
a blue balloon.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
So this was how state of Origin played out. This
is for state of origin. No, okay, moves them around
a bit. Okay, let's see what happens that hit your head. Sorry,
I'm just trying to hit Jones's bosom balloons. No, I've
picked Queensland. I've picked Queen's Land. And I didn't picked Queensland.

(19:18):
I didn't pick Queensland. The universe did. And I'm sorry
everybody speaking.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Of football players former ones. My mother in law, Mavis,
who lives up a tweet. Heeads sent me a text
the other day. Weird happening when I arrived at the
pool today. She's doing hydrotherapy in the pool. You know,
the old lady's getting a little kid's pool today. There
were three muscular men in the baby pool sparring.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
One was sunny Bill Williams. Really they had the hide
to be in my pool. Really, so sunny Bill's about
to take on Paul Gallon.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
In a fight, and he's practicing in the baby pool.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Baby pool, and tell.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Ma to get out on not making it yellow.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
You know we can tell anyway.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
Good like everybody, like everyone Jones Amanda Notion podcast, When.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
I wanted to get up right now.

Speaker 6 (20:11):
Go to your windows, over them and stick your head
out and yells.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Hell down with the jonesy demand of arabs for the
pub test today, finding school parents does that passed the
pub test? Teachers or parents who defame teachers online could
now be fined one thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Is a proposal that's been put forward by Victorian Education
Complaints Authority, saying that the numbers are up of complaints
and abuse. Some parents are saying they don't get hurt
enough and so that's what's leading to this. I just
got a text from a friend of mine who's a
school teacher, and she said, I can't wait. The abuse
has been mounting exponentially. Lots of people are saying the
same thing. Finding school parents does this past the pub test.

Speaker 8 (20:52):
I had two children who were school teachers, and the
amount of abuse from the kids little owned of parents
esfully part of the pubject.

Speaker 14 (21:01):
By putting a teacher's name online, it's only giving them
a bad reputation. It also falls back upon the school.
It gives them a bad reputation. We all make mistakes,
just like everybody else, so there's a pass of updest
you that it does start name in shame. Keep it
so it's got a problem gone for you.

Speaker 6 (21:18):
No way, the moms and dad should be able to
complain about bad teachers or the actual our school system
if there is a need for it.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
Yes, I think it's definitely part of the pub test.
There are so many parents with unrealistic, stupid attitudes today.
They don't understand what's going on in the classroom. The
teachers have to organize them, and they're the ones who
need to be able to organize that. They don't need
to have all this interferent and apart from that, defining
online is illegal, they should be consequented.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Well, speaking of consequences, Brendan, it's about to happen. We're
about to hear song number three and Bad Element.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I'm excited. Are we ready?

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Do we need Molly Meldrim in here?

Speaker 1 (22:04):
No? I don't think anyone needs anywhere nonsense.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
The White album has there been such an anticipating release.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
It's incredible.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
And you can't get more white than Bad Elements.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Okay, strapping, give me in case people have just joined us,
give us the backstory to your band, Bad Element.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Well, I dug up an old tape of a garage
band that I was in called Bad Element, and at
the time you was aeen right, And at the time
every pub was playing great rock bands in excess midnight,
all the angels, you know, a cold chisel they're all doing.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
And you wanted a point of difference.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
We wanted what those guys had. We don't want to work,
you know. And the sewers making concrete and all that
joke that we used to do, that's not my digestive system.
By the way, we put concrete on the walls and
the sewers. We wouldn't go down there and make concrete anyway.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
You were told it tough enough.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Our dream, Our dream was just to get paid to play.
And I played drums and you.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
There were three of you.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
There were three of me.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Of us, there's that ego. There were three of me.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
There's me on drums, Omo on guitar and vocals, and
Bizz on bass. And we had a We pulled all
our money together, six hundred dollars back then.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Is this to book some recording time, recording time to
record an EP? And so you wrote the songs together.
You play drums and occasionally sing yes years yes, And
we've heard so the first song that you unleashed.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
Well unfortunately. So I have a cassette player at home
and I was just being nostalgic. I dug up this cassette,
started playing it and it was working until it didn't.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
And it snapped the tape. So I had to re
splice the tape. So what we had so far was
no lies. And then there was Forgetful Nights. I was

(24:18):
on backups on that one.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
All right, We've had those those two. Then the tape broke,
some might say mercifully. Lee anyway, and now I'm too
excited to speak. This is the most recent song from
band Elements.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
So you spliced the tape back together trying to get
some kind of boom box in here.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
Thanks to Jeff and Steve, I managed to get a
cassette player put into the studio.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
But also now it's studio quality. It's going straight through
the desk.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
And this particular song, what's it called, is called too
Young to pre is what's the story. The story is
about young people, young girls, having to go up to
King's Us to sell their wares for drugs.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I've never heard that genre before of a song.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
This is too young, too pretty.

Speaker 11 (25:10):
That's why I just spice it together. It's a bit wonky, yeah,
it rocks here. How good the quality is?

Speaker 1 (25:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (25:27):
So it supplies with my mercy, applies when time like friends.

Because you're excited.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
I'm so excited. We've just heard song number three from
your unnamed EP from your band Bad Element.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
When you were eight, it was just self titled Bad Element.

Speaker 2 (28:27):

lyrics because it's a bit fuzzy. What are you singing about?
You said it's about young girls at the cross, Yes,

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Okay, Well, it's a place with no mercy, a place
where you don't make friends, no friends. Yeah, that's my bit.
It's open all night, and you don't have to pay.
You just walk right in.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
People scagged out of their minds on the line. You
say it again, people scagged out of their minds on heroin.
Aroon was a big thing in the age. But the
line says, remember the good old days of the heroin cops.
These days say, oh, man, I wish we had heroin.
Everyone's on ice now they are nuts.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
What's the lyric?

Speaker 3 (30:01):
People scattered out of their minds? Just waste it on
the footpath. You don't need to find them. They'll steer
you in the face. It's as real as it seems. Wow,
thirteen year old girls too young to know the difference
between wrong and right, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
This is the lament of society, scagged out of their brain. Yeah,
now it's all gentrified around the cross well.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Brain, Yes, they're all sipping caviar and having cheese plays a.

Speaker 5 (30:30):

Smells goodatis starting what do you do?

Speaker 2 (30:53):
It's a fancy the moldy, bacteria infested slab.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Of meat fall off the touch to give your TikTok tuck.
We make food from TikTok and eat it.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
And we thought was state of origin. Tonight, I'd make
something that is savor in sweet at the same time
to save you the trouble. What are your options tonight?
What do you think of having?

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Obviously, I've said to Garlo from Garlos Pies, make me
the biggest pie in the land. Gallo, put it out
on the windowszill keep it away from the local urchins.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
I'll be around to pick it up after the show.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
And I said, how about we don't do that. How
about I make a cookie pizza. So it's a pizza
that's made on cookie dough. I've squished some cookie dough flat.
I've put tomato paste, cheese, and pepperoni on top of it,
and it's been cooking in the air fry and it
smells delicious.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
It smells fantastic.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
Slice this into three and you me and.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Looks a bit burned. Do you think burned off it?

Speaker 17 (31:48):
No?

Speaker 2 (31:48):
But I'd rather this than having like, uncooked a dough,
wouldn't you. I'm going to slice it up and crust
over that side. I can't even slim up. Okay, here
we go.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
It's nice to have something that was crusty in this.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
I don't even know what you're talking about. Ryan, that's
for you, called your fingers. Thank you? Do you eat
pizza with an oven? Do you eat pizzas?

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Ryan's growing a mustache?

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Is it smaller than mine? Is that deliberate kick that
to Brendan? Okay, now when I say three, we're all
going to take a bite of our cookie pizza.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Okay, cookie pizza two?

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Three? No, I don't like it. I don't like it, sorry,
Jennis fiel me me. I'm going to spit it out.

Speaker 17 (32:36):
No.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
I wanted it to be savory. Yeah, it's not savory
enough enough because it's on cookie dough.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
It's like you've ruined two things.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It's like I've ruined Christmas.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
I'm wearing the Domeo frown.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
I'm going to phone mister Garlo myself and get a
bigger window sill so I can have a.

Speaker 1 (32:55):

I'd rather Jimi Rise Mustache.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Where You're in for a Terrible State of Origin.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Podcast.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Put on your dance and shoes.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Don't give me your best shot. Tenor in chief at
The Daily Oz, Emma Gillespie is here.

Speaker 16 (33:38):
Hello Emma, Hello, Well, Jonesy's favorite TV show is back
this week. Hold onto your hat and just like that,
season three is coming to Max. This is, of course,
the Sex and the City reboot, and we have this
new interview from Cynthia Nixon. She reveals what she kind
of hated about the show and what hasn't aged well.

(33:59):
Cynthia Nixon plays Miranda, the kind of iconic character who
sort of ironically is now of cult status. She's a lawyer,
she's the kind of funny, cynical one, but she wasn't
really anyone's favorite back in the day. But I think
she has become a really significant character of the show.
But she's explained what it's like portraying the character through
a twenty twenty five lens, and what parts of the

(34:21):
original show don't sit so well anymore so, She said,
some of the gay stuff, some of the trance stuff,
it's a little cringey.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
To look at now.

Speaker 16 (34:29):
But what I really liked about this interview with Grazia
Uk is it she was quite refreshing about that nostalgic element.

Speaker 10 (34:36):
She really defended a lot of elements of the show.

Speaker 5 (34:38):
I think sometimes we hear.

Speaker 16 (34:39):
These actors look back on those shows from the nineties
and noughties and they're kind of like, oh, it wouldn't
hold up today, and I'm doing it. But she's sort
of stood by. It's always been a feminist show. She
said that when it first aired in nineteen ninety eight
that its message was groundbreaking. She said women that women
could be single in their thirties and forties have sex
because they wanted to, not because they were chasing marriage,
and still be the heroes of their own stories was

(35:01):
a revolutionary idea at the time.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
And I think she's right, and.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
I loved it when it first started. I loved it.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
And also we as a society have marched alongside the
changing storylines and she's talking about we all look back
through a different lens, but that's the point.

Speaker 16 (35:18):
Yeah, and her character, I mean continues to hold up
nearly thirty years on.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
She's a bit of a lightning rod.

Speaker 16 (35:23):
Now this Miranda journey that we've all kind of gone
on with that character, and I think that has to
speak to the integrity of the show in its original form.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
She did touch on that the cast.

Speaker 16 (35:35):
She didn't say specifically who we know that there's this
famous beef between Sarah, Jessica Parker and Kink Control, but
she said that some of the cast members often raised
concerns about there not being enough diversity culturally on the show.
She said, we always hated that it was so white,
but we were always told it's based on a book
by Candice Bushnell and that's her world. It's a white world,

(35:56):
and the actors just kind of had to say, Okay,
so interesting to hear talk about that. But apparently this
season on, I'm just like that we can expect Miranda
will be dating again. The last two seasons she's been
with this character, this non binary character, cha Diaz sparked
a lot of debate amongst fans, but she said a
feminist show doesn't show women being perfect. If we're just

(36:16):
going to play it safe and nice, why are you sorry?

Speaker 1 (36:18):
What's the non binary on forgotten?

Speaker 2 (36:21):
They identify as gender fluid identity.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
Okay, not your thing. There's a lot going on.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
But I think if that makes you uncomfortable, you.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Know this is a show that he doesn't make me uncomfortable.
I just don't have time for it.

Speaker 3 (36:35):
You you, But if that makes one uncomfortable, I wouldn't
be disrespectful having said that, But if I did, if
I did for some reason, you know, misspeak about it.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Apologies before it happens, is what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
I think I was only want you to try your best.
And on the other side of this, girl, when I
went to New York a number of years ago, I
went to the shop that the designer who's who has
designed all their clothes feel she had an amazing shop,
and I bought an enormous that has Smurf's enormous Smurf
dollars all around it. I don't know what's happened to that,
which I still had that next year.

Speaker 16 (37:06):
That's shot closed recently, but it was a bit of
a museum. Yeah, I think the sixties and it was
kind of a safe space for all of the colorful
figures of New York City. Amazing story, Patricia Fields necklace,
that's where you got a fly.

to these two teachers.

Speaker 3 (40:30):
I was at a barbecue and they're just talking in
the primary school teachers and they deal with fifth and
sixth class.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
I won't say the school or they are.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
They saying that.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
They're just talking about this parent. And one of them,
they was just swapping stories, and they'd say this guy,
this kids are not this, parents are not this parent's
having it off with this parent, all that sort of stuff.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
And then one of them was just talking about how
one teach.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
One parent stood at the end of the class and
started lecturing on how to teach the kids.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
No, well, this is what teachers up against. Now we're
talking about this in the pub test this morning that
the chair of a Victorian education complaints authorities saying parents
should be fine for defaming teachers. And we got a
whole lot of calls from people saying that how abusive
parents are now in our day. You got dropped off
at school, that was it short of negligence. No one

(41:22):
had a complaint to the school.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Twice a rolled a roller into someone's house, so I
was in trouble, and I can't remember the second.

Speaker 1 (41:30):
And my mom came up to drop offrom a roller skates,
which one was worse for you. They both had consequences.
But what I'm saying is these days.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
These days are always Parents will be up at the
school that big fences if you don't get a good mark.
Parents will be up to school if they don't like
the way a teacher has spoken to your child. A
lot of calls this morning saying yes, it's time that
we absolutely stamp down on parents who are going crazy.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
But they're great stories. And you could be an anonymous
teacher just ringing through now on thirteen fifty five, twenty two.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
And dobbin a painful pair.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
Yeah, and we know no names, no patrol, No, we
just like to hear. We have we've got a voice disguiser.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
We don't need that, do we?

Speaker 17 (42:12):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (42:12):
Yes, yet put a different voice.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Don't you think we'd have used it for you if
we had one?

Speaker 3 (42:17):
GM We were talking earlier schools finding parents who to
fame teachers online, which I feel is kind of fair enough.

Speaker 2 (42:26):
It's a proposition. But you hear from teachers more and
more how abusive and invasive parents are becoming.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
If you're over at a barbecue, you want to get
chatting to a teacher because you just get the greatest story.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
Unless they ask you about maths.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
Brind Okay, we sidetracked the maths and get straight to
the juice.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
Well, the tribal drum is beating for dorbying a painful parent.
You gave something he rolled an our feel free to unleash.
We've got a non hello and non hello. How are
you very well tell us about that.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
We've disguised your voice as well. Gavin, it's okay.

Speaker 7 (43:01):
Oh, I've been sick because of the kids. However, I
actually worked at a behavior school. I can't tell you
the school, but it's in Western Sydney. We had two
students get into an altercation and I had the parents
standing out the front of the gate egging the kids on,
and we're trying to get them away, and the police
came and they soughted out the incident, and then after

(43:24):
that it gets even better. The next day the parents
started having a go at each other and fighting again
because of the two students.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
So the parents were out the front of the school
egging on the kids as they fought.

Speaker 7 (43:40):
Yeah, and they're like, I can't tell you if it's
a boy or a girl, but the kids the parents
were like, get that child, get them, get them, get
them in the head. And we're trying to diffuse the
situation and they were kind of promoting the violence, which
is not very good for us.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
And the cops show up.

Speaker 3 (44:01):
What hope do you have that showing support to the
kid's extracurricular activities.

Speaker 2 (44:06):
The mom came and watched me fight fight.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
That's the last thing.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
Were you having a fight at school and your parents
are outside the ring going fight fight fight.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Wow, okay, we've got Tracy now. Hollo, Tracy Dubby in
a painful parent Hi.

Speaker 17 (44:20):
There happened into a colleague of mine. This mother didn't
like the mark that my colleague had given to her
daughter for an assessment. And we were at an athletics
carnival and the children are racing around the track and
this mother shows up and starts screaming at this teacher.

Speaker 7 (44:37):
Then she starts chasing her.

Speaker 17 (44:39):
The teacher ran onto the track and she's running headfirst
into the kids who are running the race, and the
mother's racing after the teacher, still screaming her head off.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
That's me ducking and weaving through all the students.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
If you saw that in a movie, you would not
believe it.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
I was crazy.

Speaker 14 (44:58):
It was greatly.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
What's going on there?

Speaker 2 (45:02):
Tra You got your own things? Wow?

Speaker 1 (45:05):
Getting chase Tracy getting held hostage ranking my son a
laugh enough?

Speaker 2 (45:17):

Speaker 1 (45:18):
My dad, I'm in one day.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
I got fifty maths And he was drinking a beer on.
One of his mates said, what's going on, Jeff, and
he said, my son got fifty percent. You're drowning his Sorry,
so he said, no, I'm celebrating. That's the best result
he's ever got.

pass the pub test? Parents now could be fined one
thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
For defaming teachers online.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
That's a proposal that's been put out there and lots
of people called the pup test line to say how
high it is when you're a teacher these days, and
how rude the parents are you.

Speaker 3 (46:03):
If you go to a barbecue, if you can get
into a chat circle with a couple of teachers, you'll
get some great stories.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
We've just heard some beauties just before the news, so
we thought we'd extend this. Give us a call for

Speaker 1 (46:45):
My favorite?

Speaker 8 (46:46):
My favorite story is I was.

Speaker 6 (46:48):
Teaching a three hour workshop one day and we finished
all the working time and I said, okay, listen, you've
done really well. Any questions, No questions. I said, okay,
well listen, give you a ten minute early mark. Might
have been twelve minutes, but there was no about ten
twelve minutes. The next morning, my boss called me and said,
did you cut yesterday's class short? I said, yeah, they
got through all the work and I got in about
a ten to twelve minute early marks.

Speaker 8 (47:09):
She went, yeah.

Speaker 6 (47:10):
I've had four parents called this morning saying that I
was cutting their children's education short by cutting the class short.
And two of the parents were asking for my resignation
because because I have cut the giving them a ten
minute early mark. So from that point I was instructed
never ever to give early marks. Even if we got

(47:30):
through all the work under that.

Speaker 2 (47:32):
This is a university level.

Speaker 6 (47:35):
As I said, I can fill out the next half
hour of your show with stories.

Speaker 7 (47:37):
How many do you want?

Speaker 2 (47:39):

Hello there, James and Amanda love your show.

Speaker 7 (48:01):
So, two little.

Speaker 8 (48:03):
Guys in the playground, six year olds, they ran into
each other. It was an accident. They got up, they
apologized to each other. Teacher came over and said, the
UK all the rest of it, and it was all fine.
They went off and played. Mum apparently held up the
traffic in the afternoon screaming because her son his face
had been damaged. He had a tiny little mark on

(48:25):
his cheek. Anyway, I was the principal by the time
I got to find out about all of this. I
rang the parents and said, look, come in, we'll talk
about it the next day.

Speaker 12 (48:34):
So they did.

Speaker 8 (48:35):
They came in with their solicitor.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
And the kids apologized to each other and got on
with it.

Speaker 8 (48:43):
Yeah, there was no problem. The teacher said, it wasn't
a problem at all. They just was an accident. And
he got a little bit of a mark on his
cheek and she said, do you want an ice back?
And he said no, I'm fine. When they all came
into my room and they all sat down, I thought
he said it was his sister, but it was his solicitor. Anyway,
you know, they were talking about it and Mum said,

(49:03):
you know, this boy grabbed hold of my son, threw
him on the grand kicked h.

Speaker 9 (49:06):
Punched him in the face.

Speaker 8 (49:07):
And I said, hang on, hang on, that's not what happened.
The teacher was there, she saw the whole thing.

Speaker 15 (49:11):
It was.

Speaker 8 (49:11):
It was just an accident. And mom said no, no, no,
And then the kid shined in. You have to remember
he's sick. He chimed in and he said, actually, I'm
the principals right. It was an accident.

Speaker 7 (49:22):
And Mum said, but you told me that he punched
you in the face, and he said, well I had
to tell you something.

Speaker 8 (49:26):
You were yelling at me.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
Oh wow, well thanks and non wow.

school camp and it was year sevens and some of
the kids were obviously texting their parents saying food wasn't great,
showers weren't hot enough, And we had a handful of
parents come down to deliver food and some asking if
they could take their kid home to have a hot shower.
A school camp had a year seven school camp, and

(51:21):
then they made complaints to the school saying the shower
wasn't hot enough for their child.
