Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to the Robin and Kid podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Okay, so this is a question without notice. And I'm
kind of obsessed at the moment with Colleen Hoover because
of It Ends with Us, which is the movie Sharring
Blake Lovely came out last week and I was lucky
enough to interview Colin Colleen and because of that, and
I knew it was coming that I was getting really
obsessed with her book. So I've been listening to them
on audible and I started with It Ends with Us.

(00:28):
Then I went to the sequel, which is It Begins
with Us. And now I'm onto my fifth Colleen Hoover book.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
She's such a prolific writer.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
To take to do an audible book like a regular size,
say it's a three hundred page book, like is it days?

Speaker 2 (00:43):
It depends on how obsessed I get. So whenever I
get in the car, it usually clicks on. When I'm running,
when I'm out walking my dogs. It's just a nice
companion thing. So yeah, So anyway, so for everyone who's
seen It Ends with Us or read the book, you
would know that there is a quote that happens between
and it's a little phrase that Atlas says to Lily,

(01:05):
and then Lily says back to Atlas.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
So these is that the man?

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Yes, so the Lily is the main character. But this
is Atlas was her friend from when she was seventeen,
and then they reconnected much later. This is We found
this on the internet. It's some random reading from the book.
It's not a proper audible book, but it gives you
the phrase. Okay, and then I'm going to ask you
a question.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
You know, what is that?

Speaker 2 (01:28):
To him?

Speaker 4 (01:28):
He said, his fingers through mine and squeeze my hand.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
What you're my favorite person?

Speaker 4 (01:34):
I felt some life a little and it made me smile.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Out of how many people he asked, all.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Of them question without notice, Yes, he's your favorite person?

Speaker 4 (01:44):
Well, Naomi, obviously is it? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Is it?

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Yeah? She's like easily my favorite person.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
I mean or right, okay, now you think about it.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yes, Well, look, I think I can safely say that
Sienna's not in the story at the moment because she's
just like, she's only eight weeks, you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
I don't know anything about.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Her, only that she likes milk and she likes it
and she needs constant changing, so she's.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Out of it always a different perspective. I'm just gonna
file it under always a different perspective, even though you're
the genetic farmer.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
She'll come good, all right now.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
You, on the other hand, I'm not so sure about it.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Okay, So right now, it's between Rafi and Naomi. No,
Naomi's my favorite person, Like this is the very like
so easy just to just to be with.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Oh no, I know, right.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
Yeah, because he's yeah, he's my boy and he's.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
So much fun. But he also exhausts me. Where is
my favorite you know, whereas Naomi never exhausts me like that.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
I never feel like.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Oh gosh, could you just leave me alone for a minute,
you know, to Naomi.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
With Rath, what about you, let's switch it.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
I'm so not saving you on this one.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Okay, So this is Yeah, this is a conversation that
I ended up having across the weekend with Olivia and
my boyfriend because I said, you're my favorite person. He said,
but what about your kids? And I said, well, here's
the thing. And I've had a long time to digest
this because I have three they're nineteen, twenty two and
twenty four. I will never, ever, regardless of how much
they always want me to say who my favorite is

(03:16):
because I actually don't have one hand on heart.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Genuinely, I went on a lie detector and prove that. Yes,
So I don't.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Think you can then say which one of them is
your favorite person because they're not.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
They all are and that's a cop out.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah okay, so then it's like, No, the person that
I choose to spend my time with is Olivier, and
he is absolutely my favorite person. But I think that changes.
I don't think you have a favorite person for life.
I think you have a favorite person right now.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
And in time like when before, when I wasn't dating
and I was alone by myself, I think my favorite
person would have been one of my girlfriends at various
times you had really understood me. Yeah, but it's a
curly one, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
You almost got to take your kids out of the
equation because it's not fair, you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
You've got that, you've got some wind.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Let us pull off those two quotes about how kid feels.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
About the blob. I guess that's an improvement from it.
There's the kid that is so much fun and he's
such a great guy. Until he annoys it.

Speaker 4 (04:26):
While you know, no.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Naomi any any great words of wisdom about when she
up says you.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
She knows that's the thing.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
She goes, you need to go away for a bit,
don't you like?

Speaker 1 (04:38):
She sends me off downstairs to watch TV because she
knows I need a break from people.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
So you actually have yes.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
By other people because you have no perspective on your
own life.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
You've got irritable human syndrome. Off you go.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
It's such a little IHS going on you and so
many others
