Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to the Jonesy and Demander podcast. Well, speaking
of names, how would you pronounce this name m A
c k s y m I double l y o N.
It sounds like you're doing the Mickey mass th M
m A c k s y m I double l
y o N. Maximilian Maximilion. Yeah, every single permutation of

(00:24):
how it would normally spelled has been too Why is
it spelled so straight? M I c k X max
y m I double l y o N. I've got
a max in my life, MAXI, you know, maxim He's
just he's a Maximus, and that's or Maximilian. But he
just spells it the old the old way m U
x I silent p Q to the parrot two exactly.

(00:46):
How about how would you about this one? D E
n I A L Daniel. That's a new way of
spelling Daniel. According to this thing I'm just reading here,
This is a story about people who are calling their
things like kids, things like r A I G E
ra hermione h U r h M y ni asap
w A s A p. They're saying that there's psychological

(01:09):
implications to what you name. Your chant's true and yet
the story that's gone viral this week. Actually, you know what,
sometimes what we do is when we have a story
about people who are doing unusual things, the people that
you meet, the people in the street, the people that
you meet each day. We do this the people of
the neighborhood. These are the people in your neighborhood, in

(01:31):
your neighborhood, in your neighbor They're good, aren't They are
the people in your neighborhood, the people each day. So,
in other words, between about nutjobs, these are the people
who live amongst us. They could be our neighbors, they
could be our best friends. But there's something that's a
little bit irk misquirks. Are you getting people to dub

(01:52):
in a nuts No, not at all. I'm just going
to tell you about So that's all the weird names.
But what about this woman. She's gone viral this week.
She lives in the States. She's called her child, her
daughter Mary. What's wrong with that? Nothing's wrong with that.
She's got four daughters. It's what the other three are
called Mary. Her name is Mary, and she's called all

(02:17):
four of her daughters. Yeah, Mary. It's like a Norfolk Island.
Everyone's got the same surname. Well, I think that's a
little different to this, because that's cause they're interrelated. Here
are we broadcasting? We just lost them. Tell your parents
and as you are your own parents. The most convincient

(02:39):
Father's Day. This woman has defended giving four daughters the
same name, even though it's her name as well. She
stands by her decision, it says, swearing it causes no
confusion whatsoever in her house because often they go by
their middle names. So she says, the eldest Mary Francis,
is sometimes ancestor Francie. The second one, Mary Marjorie as

(03:00):
to Mazie, which makes no sense. Mary Jane goes by JJ,
and Mary Teresa is called Tessa. So they don't even
go by their actual middle names. So why don't we
confuse everybody? So she said, the family will live together
at a farm, working as ranchers. That's because you don't
have to brand one name on them all. They have

(03:20):
their ranch. It's called five Mary's Ail Mary's, and it's
true Mary's indeed quite contrary. So these are the people
in your neighbor. Indeed, these are the people. Have to
hear that again, come on that again, pulls off rhyme

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
