Beside us is and I've got it in my hit.
So post posted a certain era for women. Your tendons
get loosey goosey, and so the tendons a bit sore
at hip and barm area. And then just over the weekend,
I still all the way on the stairs on that

(01:01):
very part of my painful painful. Also, it's really hard
to see my bruise. And what's worse is you can't
show off a bruise when it's on your balm. No,
you can't nae, can't.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
I have that's right right. The big bruise on my
bum showed everyone.

was exquisite and I couldn't move, and I had to go
to my visio.

He said, you lady, we'll have to fix that, and
he needed my bum and goodness, it hurt. It fixed it,
But he also explained a lot of your pain that
you have. If you have a fall, you should say
to yourself, it's not going to hurt, because then your
body relaxes a lot of.

The new way of thinking. My son has just qualified
as a physiotherapist. And the latest thinking and the latest
research about pain and the role the brain plays is
the brain plays an enormous role in how your body
deals with pain and healing and how you approach your rehabilitation.

her husband, look at it, look at it. I look
at it. And he didn't want to say, Look, what's
the point of having an injury if no one's going

Last week we did a TikTok so called recipe. It
was a jar or a packet of those sour gummy
lollies yep, and we added pesto, and weirdly, it tasted
better than it had before. We put them together.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
I don't know what it tasted like, but it was
something i'd never tasted before.

Speaker 5 (10:29):
No, that is an unusual taste.

Speaker 6 (10:31):
Somebody accused me the other day of making this up,
that we're always saying, yum, this is really good.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
It was Josh Thomas who said to us, all, we're
faking it.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
We're not faking it.

Speaker 5 (10:41):
We're not making it up. If we like something, we
say it. If we don't, we will. But often these
weird combinations taste quite much.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
It's a shame they canceled that jungle shot because we could.

Speaker 5 (10:49):
Have gone on it my balls aus yum. That's how
they would have called our names out. Today, we're going
to make a sandwich. Are you a big breadhead? As

the bread out of the packet. I'm going to slice
it now.

Speaker 1 (11:33):

a left handed person slices bread, even Jenner who's.

Speaker 1 (11:45):

In the world of smells.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
It was a bad smell. But apparently that is a
very fancy cheese.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
And once we'd cut open the cheese, it didn't smell
as bad.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
But how much your own business and shut your piehole.

Speaker 8 (18:26):
I wish you were with your jol.

Speaker 6 (18:28):
Wednesday is TikTok Tuka Day, where we make food from
TikTok and eat a gem y RYE just said these words.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
I would have paid real money to eat that TikTok tucker.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
You had the cheese chok crunch toasted. It wasn't it
teller with pretzels on it? On a piece of bread
on the other side. On the other behalf of the bread.
You put camembert, cheese and strawberry jam wanted together toast it.
It was delicious.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
It started poorly when I opened the cheese, I smell
was horrendously.

Speaker 5 (18:57):
I smelled it before I saw it, which is why
accused you, because.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
He it's you that does that. Oh sure, Robert Irwin
is hosting the logis what about this?

Speaker 5 (19:07):
What about that? That's been announced today? And you'll do
all right? I think he will.

Speaker 6 (19:11):
I was hoping it'd be you, because I could see
you up there doing it, and I'd be happy to
be your wingman.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
I'd be in the crowd just holding up the Q cards.

Speaker 5 (19:20):
What would a Q card?

Speaker 1 (19:21):
I'd like?

Speaker 6 (19:22):
No one told me it was a hand basin and
then wait for laughter, the Ostrich's back.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
I think it'd be great.

Speaker 5 (19:30):
What's interesting is it's a very as we all know,
it's a really hard gig, and the audience has to
want to love you, which they did with Sampayne and
I people love you no, but I think that'll be
the same with Robert Irwin. People would choose to embrace him.
I'm looking through the list of people who've posted it,
nineteen fifties and sixties, Grand Kennedy, Jimmy Edwards. I imagine
this one in nineteen sixty three, no formal host. It

(19:52):
was on a cruise liner. What about the Bert you
Newton for one hundred million years, Michael Parkinson, Mike Willison,
Daryl Summers, Don Lane, Mark Mitchell, Daryl Summers, Steve Wizard
for a couple of years, Ray Martin, Andrew Denton Shaw mcculloff.
Now they've only been two women who hosted, Wendy Harmer
and Gretel Colleen. That's right, and they were highly criticized.

(20:15):
Those performances were so much more criticized. Look how many
men there are there being two women?

Speaker 1 (20:20):
This is your time? What sort of bunts are we
talking about? Buns and burner? I don't know what would
you get paid?

Speaker 5 (20:28):
Well, I don't know what would you get paid to?

Speaker 1 (20:30):
What would you do it for?

Speaker 5 (20:31):
What would you do it for you do it for free.
You do it to not to be in the obits.

Speaker 6 (20:36):
Proved people Still, I'd start doing it and I'd see
my name in the obituary.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
Hang on a minute, if you I do it, I'd
do it. Let's see, i'd do it for.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
You do it for nothing. Don't pretend yes you would.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
I wouldn't. I do it for seventy five thousand dollars done?
And you know what, cash in hand? None of these
tax stuff, just brown paper bag seventy five k.

Speaker 5 (20:59):
Because it's such a low key gig, no one would know. Ryan.
Why don't your Google Uneel people get paid?

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, there's no official amount. Although on what's this? This
is seek dot com? What can I earn as a host?
Sixty five seventy five thousand? I was on the money.

Speaker 5 (21:18):
I think you'd be on the lowest.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Remember the Radio Awards. We did it for free, and
I just I just want to talk about us for
a second.

Speaker 6 (21:23):
We hosted the best ever radio awards and we didn't
get a cent for that.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
And now the Radio Awards done and it exists anymore.

Speaker 5 (21:31):
It doesn't sound like we did a very good job.

Speaker 6 (21:32):
Where can radio station managers go up on stage and
grape women and eat chicken and steak.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Where's this going to happen?

Speaker 5 (21:39):
Where's it going to happen?

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Anyway? Well, we wish Rob too.

Speaker 5 (21:43):
You know, I'm excited because now that I'm doing these
later hours in the Drive show, I can go to
the party and not have to get up at four
in the morning.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
No, no more calls. Oh no, Jonesy, I've gone full Andro.

Speaker 5 (21:55):
Helped me out.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Bring a roll of carpet. Taylor Swift's wedding's coming up.

Speaker 6 (22:05):
Were looking well good m Gillespie with the download is
on the way on God jem Dacious.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
With Emma Gillespie from the Daily Odds No less, Hello.

Speaker 7 (22:23):
M Hello, Well there's a very big wedding that's just
around the corner. I'm not talking about Dua Lipa. I'm
not talking about myself, even though we are two icons
who are getting married this year. Taylor Swift, you have
heard of her. She is getting married to Travis Kelce
in just a few weeks time, and if the rumors
are true, they are getting married at Madison Square Garden.

(22:45):
Now I did not see this one coming, of course.
Madison Square Garden is the home of the Knicks, an
iconic concert venue. Taylor Swift herself has played eight sold
out concerts there, but she's apparently turning it into a
wedding venue on the weekend of Independence Day, the July
four long weekend in the US MSG On the website,
there's no events booked from the twenty ninth of June

(23:07):
through to the sixth of July, which is a very
rare gap for one of the busiest venues on the
planet to have such a big gap, and sources say
the couple have rented the arena for at least three days,
one for setup, one for the big day, and one
for a pack down day, all costing about a million
US dollars per day, which is probably chump chained. Sure

(23:28):
woman whose networth just exceeded two billion dollars last.

Speaker 6 (23:31):
Year, but that's pretty reasonable. That's like getting your local
Scout hall for everyone else.

Speaker 5 (23:36):
What's interesting is she remember they got engaged in a garden.
They're getting married in a garden. It just happens to
be Madison Square gardens.

Speaker 7 (23:43):
How massive is very poetic, but the seating.

Speaker 5 (23:46):
Capacity is massive.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
There's like how many people twelve thousand people can go
into Madison.

Speaker 7 (23:50):
Two twenty to twenty two thousand people, and I at
first I thought this is so bizarre, why would you
want to get married in a big sporting arena. But
some very clever people online have actually figured out a
few reasons why this makes total sense. Firstly, there are
no windows at Madison Square Garden, which means paparazzi can't
sneak any snaps from the outside. There can't be any

(24:12):
helicopters hovering capturing anything, so I think that privacy element
makes sense. There is also underground parking at Madison Square Garden,
so that means that the plan is apparently that guests
are going to get bussed in in these blacked out buses.
There won't be any paparazzi who'll be able to see
them arriving, they won't be mobbed by photographers, and there

(24:32):
are multiple entrances to msg so it'll be tough for
paparazzi to figure out who's coming in what direction. And
it also means there won't be any kind of single
bottleneck for any guests to be mobbed. And I mean
it makes sense there's this layer of secrecy around the wedding. Obviously,
you know, not so secret we're talking about MSG if
it really is the venue, but it's kind of smart.

Speaker 5 (24:55):
I think, interesting, isn't it? And I was wondering how
I guess they would create a small space withinside inside
that big space, because if it's empty, it's going to
feel terrible.

Speaker 7 (25:05):
Yeah, well exactly, I think because it can be transformed
for arena concerts. And Taylor Swift, being the kind of
creative person that she is, she gets so involved with
the production side of her tours. You'd be thinking she's
probably working with some of the very clever people behind
the Ears tour who were able to make incredible spaces,

(25:25):
you know, in every venue they went to. I'm sure
it will be something absolutely spectacular if Taylor is involved.
She knows her way around the stadium.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
And that's true.

Speaker 6 (25:34):
And all those people that worked on the Eras tour,
she gave them all that big bonus, so they have
sort of might be working for free.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
You know.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Yeun your cousins gets married and all of a sudden
you're hold handing out the canapes.

Speaker 7 (25:46):
I would hand out some canapes if Taylor.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
And do I mean when she walks down the aisle,
it'll be d.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
Be the world's longest walks the way into the center
of the stadium.

Speaker 7 (26:00):
No confetti, just big foam hands.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
Yes, no, yeah, that's right. Who's the band who could
possibly be asked to perform there?

Speaker 1 (26:10):
On the guest list and he'll do a song surely, surely, surely.

Speaker 7 (26:15):
Added to a song time the Time Sisters are going
to be there, Selena Gomez. There'll be plenty of very
talented people in the crowd, so I'm sure there'll be
some kind of music bonanza. Maybe Taylor herself will debut
some kind of a beautiful new love so supergroup, supergroup?

Speaker 1 (26:31):
Can you sing at your own wedding? We've discussed this.
I think we talked about that. We talked to who
do we talk to about this?

Speaker 5 (26:38):
Hugh Jackman saying, and I think we.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Mentioned Ed Sheeran because we said, I you a bit
up yourself. It would like be for you if a
man m seed her own wedding.

Speaker 7 (26:48):
Right, and what I have to do, but no one
else would do as good a job.

Speaker 5 (26:51):
That's so up and read the telegrams out perfect sense,
it makes perfect sense.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Okay. Now the buffet is open everyone, and if you
would like.

Speaker 5 (26:59):
To enjoy it, and Joan step away from the drinks.

Speaker 7 (27:02):
If you want it done right, sometimes you got to
do it yourself.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Quite true. Thank you, Thanks, Okay, your download is complete.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Jones and Amanda can't shut up on the Jonesy and
Amanda podcast. Download the free iHeart out.

Speaker 5 (27:17):
When you go to a fast food outlead so just
a place that has paper napkins, cafe, you're buying a muffin,
whatever it might be.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
I don't buy muffins. Do I look like a guy
that buys muffins? Yes, you don't give this rock hard
ab said from eating muffins.

Speaker 5 (27:37):
From knocking on a desk. But my point is, do
you steal the napkins? Let's cut straight to the truck,
to the to the chase. Do you nick a napkin
as spare napkins case your hands get due? Do you
pop one in a suit in your briefcase? But do
you put one in your pocket?

Speaker 1 (27:52):
I wouldn't pop. Don't carry a briefcase. A lot of
people do. Sometimes I have been known to pocket a
few napkins.

Speaker 5 (27:58):
Well only because I saw this guy's and and go
on socials and he said this.

Speaker 9 (28:02):
I am never buying napkins again ever. Going forward. I'm
just going to take them from restaurants out of the
little plastic thing. I don't think that's stealing. They're meant
to be taken by people who need them, like me.
I don't have napkin money. Boomers buy napkins. I don't
get crazy with it. I just take a handful, like

(28:24):
five or ten. That's not stealing it.

Speaker 5 (28:28):
Is it wondering?

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Is it napkin money?

Speaker 5 (28:30):
But if you take five or ten and everyone takes
five or ten and the cost of every muffin will
go up? Do you take sugar?

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Do you steal a plastic guy?

Speaker 6 (28:37):
I'm going to dub my wife in here. She was
getting a seven eleven coffee. We don't have sugar in
the house.

Speaker 5 (28:42):
Because we don't have strict rules around it.

Speaker 6 (28:44):
Well, we don't really eat sugar in our coffee put
it in our coffee, but when people come around, so
she was just getting those little you know, the sashis
the sachets, and so now we've got a job full
of them that you've stolen. And then someone said, oh,
this looks like catering quality quality sugar, and and it's
got seven to eleven written down the bottom. So I

(29:05):
guess in a way, but well a lot of it,
And then I feel bad because they've got that great
two dollar coffee, so it's not like they're ripping us
off anyway.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
And even the small little fish soy sauce.

Speaker 6 (29:16):
Things for the soy sauce people, but they put way
too many of those soy sauce fishies in your sushi.

Speaker 5 (29:21):
Well, what if you're buying sushi to take away from
a sushi making emporium? Do you take a few spares
and a few.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Little packets of way they're always extra chopsticks. No, I
wouldn't do that. Well do you take the job sticks?

Speaker 7 (29:35):
No?

Speaker 5 (29:35):
But if that's I though, if you did, are you stealing?
Or is it fair enough? I want to have a
whippole on this. Thief or fair enough?

Speaker 6 (29:47):
An instant snapshot on what the community thinks on any
given subject.

Speaker 5 (29:50):
Yeah, is the whippole. Maybe you're a small business owner,
you're going, please don't do this, And maybe you're thinking
I'm being ripped off by big catering. I'm happy to
or fair enough?

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Thief or fair enough? That's very hard to say today.

Speaker 6 (30:06):
Taking napkins from a major fast food chain, is that
theft or fair enough?

Speaker 1 (30:11):
This fella thinks fair enough.

Speaker 9 (30:13):
I am never buying napkins again ever going forward. I'm
just gonna take them from restaurants out of the little
plastic thing. I don't think that's stealing. They're meant to
be taken by people who need them, like me. I
don't have napkin money, boomers by napkins. I don't get
crazy with it. I just take a handful, like five

(30:36):
or ten. That's not stealing, is it?

Speaker 6 (30:39):
This sounds like whippoul. I was thinking maybe pubtests, but whipoul.
The whip poul is a more direct snapshot of what
the community thinks. So it's right now, it's happening.

Speaker 5 (30:50):
Here's what we're asking, thief or fair enough?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Kate is in Campadia.

Speaker 5 (30:55):
Over to you, Kate, what do you think?

Speaker 4 (30:57):
Absolutely the taking but the joys of the random shop?

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Can I ask you this? Taking two might be fair enough?
What if you're just taking one hundred? Fair enough?

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Oh, Amanda, that might be a bit too much.

Speaker 5 (31:13):
Let's make it fair if it's.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
The big handful, a good sturdy hands sturdy handful. Okay,
thank you, Kate. Thirteen fifty five is our number.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Two.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
I've missed one. Ben's in Bell rays my Ben.

Speaker 5 (31:25):
Is it thieving or is it fair enough?

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Fair enough?

Speaker 8 (31:28):
Guys?

Speaker 7 (31:29):
Enough?

Speaker 5 (31:30):
Okay, unless you're the small business owner and.

Speaker 6 (31:32):
You take it from mum and pop store, would you
people like the back cook and the bad.

Speaker 5 (31:37):
People are It's not always mister big golden arch.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
Thank you.

Speaker 8 (31:41):
Ben.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Anthony's with us?

Speaker 5 (31:42):
Hi, Anthony thieving or fair enough?

Speaker 8 (31:46):
I reckon?

Speaker 9 (31:48):
Can I just say you also?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Jones my name used to do the same thing. A
cookie jar full of those sugars.

Speaker 6 (31:55):
I was just talking about my wife before she was
going seven to eleven eleven getting the two dollars, which
I'll add is.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Very cheap, and there she doesn't have sugar in the coffee,
so she take one or two.

Speaker 6 (32:06):
And now I've got a jar full of sugar at home.
If you come around to visit than Anthony. Stacey is
in Klanger, Hello Stacey.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
Hi.

Speaker 4 (32:16):
I think it's fair enough because then you can use
like make origami out of it, and comes to hand
if you don't have any tilet paper when you want
to blow.

Speaker 5 (32:24):
Your nose, blow your nose on a penguin that you've
made out of paipe.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Stacy begs the question, would you steal toilet paper? From
a place off.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
You're desperately No, why not?

Speaker 5 (32:36):
I think it'd be better to steal toilet paper than
to use a napkin that you've stolen or a sugar sason.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Confuse everybody, Chris, wrap this up?

Speaker 5 (32:47):
Is it thieving? Or is it fair enough?

Speaker 4 (32:49):
Guys? I put this in exactly the same category as
those little fish that you get at the sushi places
with soy sauce. It is fair enough. Take as many
as you can sit in both pockets, It's.

Speaker 5 (33:00):
Okay, but not in a handbag. You stop at the pocket.

Speaker 4 (33:03):
I don't know you can do. If it's out there
and it's complimentary, you take it as many as you need,
because I take.

Speaker 5 (33:08):
Beer coasters need or want. So I'm just pushing where
it is. Where does anyone draw the line?

Speaker 6 (33:14):
Because really, when you look at it, you don't have
to pay for anything in this world. It's all there
for the taking, like a rich ripe melon.

Speaker 5 (33:22):
Thanks Gina Rehinhut.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Well, Gina, does you just see the iron ore and
picks it up? Why can't you and I just go
into that. Why don't we just go and to the
Hammersley Iron and just go and pick up someone?

Speaker 5 (33:33):
You start and I'll see how you go. You lots
of things coming up on the show. We're going to
talk about the latest batch of influencers, and I've been
sucked into watching these people. They are loneliness influences.

Speaker 6 (33:44):
Also, if you write a motorcycle, I have a story
about the pure joy of a motorcycle that happened to
me today.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
It's so good. It's one of those fuel warm stories.

Speaker 5 (33:54):
Field warm story.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
You seem to like field warms phrase I've never heard before. Well,
write it down where you were when you first heard it?

Speaker 6 (34:04):
Right on Gold Hello there, it's Jonesy demand of driving
you home This Wednesday afternoon. I was at the lights
on my motorcycle and there's something about a motorcycle at
the traffic lights.

Speaker 5 (34:15):
It's loud, is that what you're going to say?

Speaker 6 (34:17):
It annoying, can be, loud, can be, but it's a
position of vulnerability for the motorcycle.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
See you sit there, but there's a lot of pressure
as well. There's a lot of eyes upon you. And
what you largely do is.

Speaker 6 (34:29):
Try to get to the front of the traffic so
like a little fish, you can get in front of everyone.

Speaker 5 (34:33):
And that can I know, I know it's legal. As
you say, can annoy grates.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Well, yeah, so you go. That's for another sixteen. But
of course what I'm saying fielding works for motorcycles.

Speaker 5 (34:45):
What I'm saying is you do make yourself vulnerable when
you cut through and something you're at the front.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
Look, you make yourself vulnerable when you sit in traffic
like a car.

Speaker 5 (34:53):
Safety valuable will.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Makes you vulnerable because some dope can run up the
backside of you. So you don't want that. You want
to be you want to be sco.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
You're not hearing what I'm saying, which is some people
you said you feel vulnerable. I'm not arguing, but people
will look to you because they've seen you cut through
the traffic and will be jealous.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Okay, yeah, okay, Well I have no answers for that.

Speaker 5 (35:14):
Maybe by it makes you vulnerable.

Speaker 6 (35:16):
It makes you vulnerable because of the aforemention of dope
that's going to run up behind you.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
But also you know anything could happen.

Speaker 6 (35:21):
You know, you could step on a rock and all
of a sudden you've losed your balance, or a patch
of oil or wind gusts or whatever. So largely you
sit there just looking at the traffic lights, timing how
long it's going to take, so you can negotiate your
way forward. But then there's another thing that's great about
motorcycles that when I'm out riding largely motorcycles are invisible

(35:43):
to people in cars. They sort of don't notice them.
But every now and then you'll be at the lights.
And this happened to me today. This mum was going
across the crossing and I was at the front of
the lights. She got the crossing. She's got a little
kid in a stroll of an ice cream, another kid
eating an ice cream, and they're just walking along and
all of a sudden, the kid that's walking along standing up,
just suddenly stops and just looks at my bike with

(36:05):
this look of wonder. Oh, it's like this look of wonder.
And it was like when I was a kid. You
know that look of wonder when you go yeah, And
you don't see it often, but it can happen like
an old lady. Sometimes you'll be riding along you see
an old lady. I should just look at your bike
and you can almost see it melt away. When they
were young, you know, they might have had a husband

(36:25):
or a boyfriend that had a bike, or an old
guy comes and stands and looks at your bike. Sometimes,
if you see an old guy standing next to your
bike and it's parked in the shopping center, you're going
to wait till they go away, because then you're stuck
there for.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
About twenty minutes.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
Don't want to talk to you about, mate.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
What sort of bike's this? If you've got a ural?
Do you know what a ural is?

Speaker 6 (36:44):
No, that's not an infection. It's a Russian motorcycle like
a sidecar. It's got a sidecar and it looks like
it's straight out of Indiana.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
Joe, how great, Let me get one of those.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
Well, then I've got to make this guy.

Speaker 6 (36:55):
And it's called the ural effect because you take that anyway,
and all of a sudden people are just fat ladies.

Speaker 5 (37:00):
That did they drive around in one of those.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
That could be the future for us.

Speaker 5 (37:07):
Imagine the looks we'd get. Wow, Mum, but I hope
I never want to be that.

Speaker 6 (37:10):
But it's one of the joys of being emotion Yes,
one of those joys. And that the look on that
little kid's face. She had a been about five, which
was the age I was when I got run over
by a motorcycle that could be another fee.

Speaker 5 (37:23):
Do you how would you feel if your someoneted to
ride a bike, because you say everyone should ride a bike.
How do you feel if I got a license? How
did you feel if your license?

Speaker 1 (37:31):
If you got your license would be so hot? No,
you wouldn't like it.

Speaker 5 (37:34):
You'd be scared that I'd hurt myself.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
No, I think you'd be no, because you're you'd maybe
we get you a sidect Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:42):
Yeah, so you'd be until someone you love wanting. No,
of course not.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
You've been on the back of mine many times.

Speaker 5 (37:51):
I had an old boyfriends to drive right around the
back of his bike. What did he have a bike?
I don't know what kind it was?

Speaker 1 (37:58):
Sure, sure, but you know it. Did you like it? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (38:02):
Yeah I did.

Speaker 5 (38:02):
But I don't want to ride a bike. But it's
one of those things. And I know this how you
feel you think everyone should ride a bike?

Speaker 1 (38:08):
No, I don't actually think that.

Speaker 6 (38:09):
I say that because the beauties of motorcycles in Australia,
there's if you go to America, Americans love motorcycles.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Australia not so much. You know, in Australia was a
sort of a stigma.

Speaker 6 (38:20):
Attached bikis and all that sort of stuff. Temporary Australians.
I hosted a TV show, motorcycles show called Temporary austray I.

Speaker 5 (38:26):
Still offended when people talk about that. I defend you
when people call.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
We came up with a name for the Shaw because
people in the said, like, I've been riding motorbikes since
I was nineteen.

Speaker 5 (38:34):
And you've had about fourteen spills.

Speaker 6 (38:36):
I've had a few accidents, yes, largely all of my
my own mistake. But every day someone tries to kill me,
Like literally every day someone merges in. And that's when
you get past that. You're you're looking for everyone else,
not You've got to look out for yourself. That's the jeopardy,
that's the real life Jepdy.

Speaker 5 (38:55):
I prefer to live without that. I've got enough jippany
coming in here every day. Have you seen the way
I drive? I had already.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
You're listening to the Jonesy and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
I have so many request for them to do it again.

Speaker 5 (39:13):
They should lay off the moonshine.

Speaker 8 (39:15):
Always knocking a man. It's so weak knocking.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
I'm a bit tired today. What's happened, Well, what's happened?
My dog? I must have eaten something a bit strange.
I don't know. But she sleeps on the floor of
the bedroom.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
You didn't feed her a cheese rynd again, No, wow,
that was a mistake.

Speaker 5 (39:33):
Broke up in a fog. No, but I heard her
sort of licking her lips and puffing and puffing a
bit during night. She's fourteen.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
And then I was okay the dog. I saw her recently.
She looks fine.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
And then I woke up at three and so by
the time I got back to sleep, the mini needed
to go out at five and again at six. And
you know, if you have I feel like I had
a newborn. If you've got a crying baby at last,
you can oh let them cry for a minute. A
dog that may soil itself or vomit or something, you
have to get up and just deal with it. You

(40:08):
have to get out of bed and make it happen.
So but I'm not the only one who is feeling tired.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
I think I think everyone is because this time of
the year changes season.

Speaker 5 (40:17):
This time of day, right I was reading this, the
most dangerous time of day is in the afternoon. It
is an awful time of day. This biomedical influencer is saying,
we have a lot of data on this. We see
big decrements in the kinds of performance between two pm
and four pm. We should be waking up right about now.
It's one of the most dangerous times to be on

(40:38):
the road. Car accidents, spike mistakes multified, even in hospitals.
They say here that anesthetic anesthesia erarors are four times
more likely at three pm than at nine am. Two
to four is when most people hit their trough, the
afternoon's slump. I think we all know that vigilance collapses
and forces and focus.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
So that's why people have a little snooze in the afternoon.

Speaker 5 (41:02):
That's why they're saying, don't schedule surgery, big decisions about
critical work in this window. So so try and protect
yourself with breaks or light admint tasks instead. Maybe we
should set everyone some light admin tasks.

Speaker 1 (41:15):
Maybe that's the thing.

Speaker 5 (41:15):
Everyone would come and do our tax.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
Why doesn't everyone just put their head on put your
head on your test.

Speaker 5 (41:21):
I know we're trying to save Aussie pubs, but maybe
it could be just.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Do our tax. It could be on your promotion and
we'll all be in jail together.

Speaker 6 (41:30):
Well luck you were out of those unproductive hours and
we're in the most productive hours.

Speaker 5 (41:34):
We're bringing it home base.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
It is a happening thing.

Speaker 6 (41:36):
Instagram is coming up, jonesydemanded dot com are you And
there's a lot of influencers out there.

Speaker 5 (41:42):
There's a new kind of influencer that I'm very interested
in that I've started to follow, and there's a lot
of them. We'll talk about it next.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
That's coming up on Goldmama.

Speaker 5 (41:50):
I started watching reels of young women who are living
with their border colleagues in the Scottish Highlands and these
cute little cottages and their baking bread and it's just
so relaxing to watch. And then I got onto this
rich scene of women who live alone. But they say
that they're single. They live alone, they have no friends,

(42:11):
and this is how they spend a Friday night or
a Saturday night. They're known as the well They've been
called by one of the magazines I've been looking at
here the loneliness influences, and there's a couple of big
ones in this genre, a genre of creators, as they
say here, whether the audience is other lonely people seeking
assurance or voyeurs simply looking to raise a superior eyebrow.

(42:33):
It says, it's clear that social isolation is now a
bankable way to build a brand. And some of them
have a beautiful apartments. They come in, they'll obviously set
up a camera to film them coming in. They set
up the different cameras. One girl who's in New York
she says, I live alone in New York City, have
no friends, so your nights look like this. And she

(42:56):
comes in, takes off a high heels from work, sterilizes
the bottom of them, puts them away. But life is
very ordered. She pours a ginger ale in an ice glass.
She kisses her cat, She puts on a face mask,
and she sits down to watch television with the lights
of New York out of her window. And I must say,
it looks bloody great, right, there's for a lot of
busy women. It looks fabulous.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
But it could be made up. She could have a
boyfriend just filming hall.

Speaker 5 (43:21):
Well, she could be doing exactly that. But there are
a couple of other ones too, and one of them
I know is going to annoy the hell out of you.
Have a listen to this.

Speaker 3 (43:29):
I have no friends, and I'm happily single.

Speaker 8 (43:31):
So this is how I make the most of my evenings.

Speaker 3 (43:33):
After work, I'm driving to go get my third coffee
of the day. Thank you. I just cleaned my entire apartment.
It's a Saturday night, and I'm going to watch the
entirety of our campus today and tomorrow. First things first,
we need to go to the store and get some snacks,
but I don't want to get up. Like how pretty
the sunset is? I'm up.

Speaker 8 (43:52):
I'm so.

Speaker 5 (43:53):
They character they catalog what they do in their evenings,
but mostly it's going out, buying food, bring at home,
and spending the night on the couch watching television, usually
with a cat. They don't drink alcohol. The ones that
I've seen have a ginger ale in a glass of
ice or something like this. And I know one of
the women lives alone. One of the English women, I
think she's from maybe some domestic violence background, so she's

(44:17):
chosen to pick calm over the chaos, And a lot
of the comments are so interesting, as they say, the
irony of the Girl with no friends is that they've
created communities of thousands of people who feel understood that
connection doesn't always look like having a group chat or
a packed social calendar. For a lot of people, particularly women,
this is a way they're choosing to live, and that's okay.

(44:39):
It's not part of necessarily the loneliness epidemic. They're choosing
a quiet life.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
I can't remember the last time I was alone in
the house. It's always someone there, always people.

Speaker 5 (44:50):
Well, this is one thing I'm finding really challenging at
the moment. We have a gaggle of caress after Harley,
and they're brilliant.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
I'm very I love these, but they're always in your There's.

Speaker 5 (45:00):
Always someone, always someone in my house.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
And that would be when you get home from work.
That would be challenging. It is you come in a house,
but you have to have the cares.

Speaker 5 (45:11):
Of course we do because well a that's how Harley is,
you know, coping with what's going on with him. But
also I couldn't do what I need to do if
he didn't have cares. But we have a place on
the South Coast and that's where I go to actually
to be alone. I take the dog and I don't
talk to anyone most of the time. And many people

(45:32):
down there have come and said, oh, you look really alone.
I think no, I'm actually choosing this. It's okay because
that's the only time I am alone. Just alone all
the time, I think I get itchy.

Speaker 1 (45:41):
You look at Tom Hanks in Castaway.

Speaker 5 (45:44):
You know, I think being ship wrecked is a little
bit Well, it was alone.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
I think these people choose me friends with a ball.

Speaker 5 (45:51):
Being alone doesn't make you lonely. But there's a difference
when you are lonely and you befriend are soccer ball,
don't you think.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
I think it was a volleyball.

Speaker 5 (46:01):
But it's fascinating the loneliness influencers look out for that.

Speaker 6 (46:05):
It gives me food for thought. Perhaps we could maybe,
I know we did the whip poles before, which is
a snapshot of what the community thinks.

Speaker 5 (46:14):
About you think of having a pub test?

Speaker 1 (46:15):
Well, can we do it? Can we have a snapshot
and then pub test.

Speaker 5 (46:20):
Let's do about living alone?

Speaker 1 (46:21):
Well, let's let's keep our powder dry.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
No, I love it?

Speaker 6 (46:24):
Okay, Well, coming up, we'll do that. We'll go down
to the Jones and Amanda Arms for the pup test gold.
Hello there, it's Jonesy Demander driving you home where there's
big issues to discuss.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
We get on down to the Jonesy Demanda Arms for
the pub test, the pub test top test does not
past the pub test, hub test test, the pub test
doesn't pass the slip test, and stop it.

Speaker 7 (46:47):
It's not helpful.

Speaker 5 (46:48):
It's interesting. I was just talking about the rise of
the loneliness influencer and many of the comments.

Speaker 1 (46:54):
Whatever subject is out there, there is going to be
an influencer for it. Yeah, but there will be the
blueloo in fluence.

Speaker 5 (47:00):
But lots of people are responding to this, women saying,
finally someone is representing how many of us choose to
live or would like to live. It's not necessarily loneliness,
but it's being alone and having a quiet life. Others
are saying that this is kind of it's like watching
tiny documentaries about the loneliness epidemic. It's one of the
comments around this that living alone can stop you having

(47:24):
a connected life, and people live longer when they have
connections in their life and liver healthy the more.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
People are connected with social media. But this right, They
are wrong.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
That's not necessary. That's right, but that's not necessarily human
connection being part of a physical community. There is research
that shows that that is a healthier way to live.
So let's put this to the pub test, I mean
living alone. Lots of people do it by choice, lots
of people do it not by choice.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
How do you feel.

Speaker 6 (47:52):
I don't think I could do it. I don't think
it's for me. My house has always got people in it.
One day there was no one there and like I
was in I am legend I started you hoarding tins
of food.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
For ten minutes, just getting a soccer ball and painting
your face on them.

Speaker 5 (48:07):
Well, let's do this living alone. Does it pass the
pub test?

Speaker 2 (48:10):
You can see a whole lot more of Jonesy and
Amanda on our socials. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook.

Speaker 3 (48:17):

Speaker 6 (48:20):
And Amanda's exciting times at Ridgemint High ten question sixty
seconds on the clock you can pass if you don't
know an answer.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
We'll come back to that question of time, but admits
you get all the questions right.

Speaker 5 (48:30):
One thousand dollars and how great would a thousand dollars?
You can turn it into two thousand dollars by answering
a bonus question. But there's jeopardy in the decision because
it's double or nothing.

Speaker 1 (48:41):
Tell you what you might be lonely with that two
thousand dollars sou of at along Beach.

Speaker 5 (48:45):
Hello, Sue.

Speaker 1 (48:48):

Oh okay, and culture club.

Speaker 5 (50:09):
You've dressed up as him. I've dressed up as him
ever to while we're a hat, I'm told I look
like him when he's dressed up as a woman. It's
boy George.

Speaker 7 (50:15):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (50:16):
Yes, and Winstones flintstones again, so I would love to
do it again.

Speaker 5 (50:25):
Okay, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
They go outside the house now, thank you, have a
good night. Thank you to we're watching you. Gam Nation
to test does not past to test taste. The test
doesn't pass the stiff test.

Speaker 4 (50:42):
Stop it.

Speaker 2 (50:43):
It's not helpful.

Speaker 5 (50:44):
There's a new batch of influencers, and they have been
dubbed the loneliness influences. Women buy and large who film
themselves coming home. They say girly voice, not always well,
some of them don't have voices at all. They just
put up captain and say, you live alone in New
York City, you've got no friends. See's how your Friday
night looks. And a lot of it looks very attractive,
going to a bit early, stroking a cat, watching a movie.

(51:07):
It's very nice.

Speaker 6 (51:08):
Well, I looked at Castaway, you know, and there would
have been points when he was on that island.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
He was thinking, no, this isn't half back.

Speaker 6 (51:15):
Once he went knocked his own tooth out with an
ice skate, and he befriended Wilson Well having.

Speaker 5 (51:20):
Said that you shouldn't have to forage for your own food.
They go out to the shops, they come home there
for them.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
But he became quite the forager.

Speaker 5 (51:26):
But on a deeper level, is this part of the
lone iNeST epidemic? Or is this something that women are
choosing to People are choosing to live their lives like this.
So what do you think? What do we call this?
Living alone? Does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 8 (51:42):
I wouldn't recommend it. Just better living with someone.

Speaker 9 (51:45):
You go crazy if you were by yourself.

Speaker 8 (51:47):
I'd love to live alone for a little while, but
I never get time to live alone because of children.
Will not leave me alone.

Speaker 6 (51:56):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (51:57):
It's stress free, it's got no hassles.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
Actually did it so many.

Speaker 8 (52:01):
Years in my twenties because of mortgages.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
And things like that.

Speaker 8 (52:04):
I actually have housemates and I really miss the fact
that I don't live it by myself.

Speaker 5 (52:10):
I absolutely love.

Speaker 4 (52:12):
Living away and it didn't start my choice.

Speaker 8 (52:14):
I love being in my own space. As long as
I've got my dog. It's a double edged sword. On
one hand, you've got peace of not having to do
anything to anyone and choosing to do whatever you want.
On the other hand, though, there are times so you
need a hug and to download to somebody and there's
no one there.

Speaker 4 (52:32):
I's care that because I get to.

Speaker 3 (52:35):
Do whatever I want to do whenever I want to
go with. Yeah, I think it passes the pub test.

Speaker 8 (52:40):
But like everything, there's downside as well.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
It's getting pretty expensive now.

Speaker 4 (52:46):
Well, when the buses don't turn up, you're in a
cranky mood and you've got to get home and you're delayed.

Speaker 9 (52:50):
You're in the dark.

Speaker 4 (52:51):
Unless the's someone home to put their arms around, you're
cutting it up. Believe me, it's better a to calm
down alone.

Speaker 7 (52:56):
Look, I think it's wonderful.

Speaker 1 (52:58):
I get to do what I want.

Speaker 8 (52:59):
I can run around naked. If you want to be
connected about you, always strike up a chat with somebody.

Speaker 5 (53:04):
We had.

Speaker 6 (53:06):
Really interesting but you think of Tom remember when Wilson
left him ry?

Speaker 1 (53:12):
Well, then I had a fight what Brandon? You were
seeing a tube of tennis.

Speaker 5 (53:18):
People are telling their emotional stories and that's what you
go to. Thank you enough? Why do I bother.

Speaker 1 (53:27):
We will be back for tomorrow's show. We have Carl
and Eddie. It's going to got a nice ring took.

Speaker 5 (53:32):

of their new show called The Long Weekend. I wonderf
there'll be double demerits for them.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
Well maybe you could.

Speaker 6 (53:43):
Maybe I'll put that toye best question for Karl and
Eddie on tomorrow's show. Also, Instagram makes us return the
