Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Rob and Kip with Choreo. It's On Demand,
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Okay, you will probably hear in this podcast we were
talking with Alana Riley, our newsreader, about her capacity to
sleep through absolutely anything.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And I was saying that I think something happens like
in your body when you have kids that you become
much more of a light sleeper, unless, of course, you're
absolutely exhausted.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
But at halftime I found this comedian who kind of
comically said, Talks about why men wake up and men don't.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
Robin Kip and Corey Oates.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
In the morning.
Speaker 6 (00:34):
131065.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You got a joke?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Something to make us laugh this morning? I don't know.
Speaker 6 (00:37):
I can't believe I'm saying this one.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Go on.
Speaker 6 (00:39):
I think it's really bad. Why are piggy banks so wise?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Why are piggy banks so wise?
Speaker 6 (00:45):
Because they're full of common sense. Ooh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (00:49):
Okay, that's where we're going.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Do you want me to tell you the joke that
Corey told me this morning?
Speaker 7 (00:53):
Go on, I do.
Speaker 6 (00:53):
I'd love you to.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'd love you to. I bought my wife a pug
for Christmas. And despite the googly eyes, the weird nose,
the bad breath and the rolls of fat, the dog
really seems to like her.
Speaker 7 (01:12):
I don't even. I can't. You just said that out loud.
And what's worse, you repeated it.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Like, it went through Corey's filter, which doesn't exist, through you.
Speaker 7 (01:32):
Your filter? Our boss, Drew, would have heard it the
first time.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
It's early.
Speaker 7 (01:37):
And now you're all chuckling again.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
It's early. Chris, out of the switch.
Speaker 6 (01:41):
Go, Chris.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Good, mate.
Speaker 6 (01:45):
Good.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
After that, how are you both going to go home?
Speaker 7 (01:50):
I'm kind of stunned, Chris.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
It's like working with three-year-olds.
Speaker 7 (01:58):
Okay, what's your joke?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yes, pull up the aircraft, if you will.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Just before I tell you the joke, you were going
on a couple of weeks ago about Vegemite on crumpets.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I've got a new meta one for you. You've got
to get really good, really good fruit toast, like a
cafe-style one, and you put Vegemite on that.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
On fruit toast? Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yeah, and it balances the sweetness out. It does.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Really?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
You've got to try that one.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, I like marmalade on a fruit toast because then
it gives you that bitterness, but that's a fruit.
Speaker 8 (02:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
But no, Vegemite, just not too much of it, just
a splash.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Just a scrape.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Give it a go. And the other one is, hang
on a sec, so I can get that going on.
And the other one, I had a sandwich bar in
London for ages and our best selling one was a
toasted peanut butter, bacon and banana sandwich.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That is the one that killed Elvis. That's the exact.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
Peanut butter, what is it? Peanut butter.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Peanut butter, bacon and banana. I'm sure that's what he
was obsessed with.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
We need to try that. I do want to try that.
Speaker 9 (03:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, anyway, Chris, you're here.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
For a show.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
What do you call an army of babies?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
An army of babies.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
What?
Speaker 9 (03:20):
Infantry.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Infantry.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Thank you, Chris.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Ashley of Beth and Gary East, what's your joke?
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Good morning.
Speaker 10 (03:29):
My joke is if milk.
Speaker 11 (03:31):
drowns cereal, does it make it a serial killer?
Speaker 1 (03:35):
I like that.
Speaker 8 (03:37):
There you go.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
Good question. Daryl Anderson Galper, what's your joke?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Morning, guys. Hey, just so you know, Corey, that joke
of yours was as bad as your tackling ability.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Thanks, mate.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Just loves a little low blow on the way through, Daryl.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
I only hit a much downer than I ever ran
into again.
Speaker 9 (03:56):
Yay!
Speaker 12 (03:57):
All right.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You know, a good mate of mine, Dave, bought himself
a talking centipede for $ 500 and took it home in
a small box. About 30 minutes after he gets home,
he opens the box and asks the centipede, would you
want to go for a beer? Centipede doesn't answer. Raising
his voice, he repeats the question.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Still no reply.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Getting angry, thinking he's been had, he shouts the question
again loudly. at which the centipede sticks his head out
of the box and says, I heard you the first time.
I'm still putting my bloody shoes on.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
That's really good.
Speaker 11 (04:32):
That's cute.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
All right, what have you got?
Speaker 3 (04:34):
131065.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It's Worst Joke Wednesday.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
They're all in uniform and slightly embarrassed.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
It's super cute. I'm going to keep going with this.
Speaker 12 (04:48):
Yesterday I farted on my wallet. Now I have gas money.
Speaker 9 (04:54):
Oh, God.
Speaker 7 (04:57):
Okay, Drew. Drew, our boss, is in the studio with
us most of the time. Do not laugh.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
It encourages him.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
It does encourage.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
He looks to you because he knows what we're going
to be like.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Sue out of Forest Lakes. G'day, Sue.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
G'day, Kip. How are you going?
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Great.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
What's your joke?
Speaker 9 (05:12):
Oh, it's nice and tame today.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Oh, good.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
That's good.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
All right.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum?
Speaker 8 (05:24):
What?
Speaker 5 (05:25):
A meltdown.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Ah, yes, it is.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
A little meltdown. That's great.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Nice.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Jason Redland-Bey, what's your joke?
Speaker 9 (05:33):
What happened?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Did you hear about the cow that jumped over the
barbed wire fence?
Speaker 6 (05:37):
No.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
No? It was utter disaster.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Oh, dear.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Oh, dear.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Sir?
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Cindy at a green bank, what's your joke?
Speaker 11 (05:51):
Why don't you ever see elephants playing hide and seek?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Why don't you ever see elephants playing hide and seek?
Speaker 11 (05:58):
Because they're really, really good at it.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That's why you don't see them, because they're experts.
Speaker 7 (06:06):
That's so close.
Speaker 6 (06:07):
Okay, let's get on in.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Oh, gee.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I mean, utter disaster actually got the best laugh this morning.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
There's been some great ones.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
There have been some good ones.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I enjoyed.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Can you remember anything? This is the problem with jokes.
You forget them the moment they've been. The snowman was cute. Yeah,
the meltdown.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You want to go with the meltdown?
Speaker 7 (06:29):
Well, you know, let's see.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Hey, Sue, have you got small people that would like
to go and see Dinosaur Live?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Oh, absolutely.
Speaker 11 (06:37):
I've got an 8 and a 10-year-old next week.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
There you go.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Perfect.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Dinosaur World Live tickets all yours. Well done, Sue.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 11 (06:46):
I've got my nearly 10-year-old standing here jumping up and down.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Perfect. A rawsome family adventure you can book now at dinosaurworldlive.com.au.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Things that you've been able to sleep through incredibly. 131065
is our number if you've slept through something dramatic.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
There are two types of people.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Those that just pass out and no matter what happens
around them, they do not wake up.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:12):
And then the rest of us.
Speaker 9 (07:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:14):
You know, I mean, and I think having.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Kids, something happens biologically and you go from being a
heavy sleeper unless you're exhausted.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
See, Naomi's gone from being a really light sleeper She
used to wake up, every time I'd wake up for work,
she'd wake up and say, I couldn't get back to
sleep and stuff. Since having Sienna, she's so tired that
she sleeps through all of it now. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
It doesn't matter anymore. 131065, because Alana, you have done
something extraordinary.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
Well, yeah, so I struggle getting to sleep sometimes, but
once I'm asleep, there could be a cyclone and I
would sleep through it. And Jessie, my partner, was in
the front yard not long, He could have even been
mowing the lawn and he heard the biggest crash over
everything he was doing, ran inside the house to see
if I was okay because it was just shattering and
(08:03):
basically a big pile of tiles.
Speaker 7 (08:04):
Like we were retiling the toilet room. They'd all fallen
over and smashed everywhere.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
A stack of tiles.
Speaker 10 (08:10):
Because they were on a cardboard box that had gotten soggy.
We didn't realize there was a water. And then it
smashed everywhere.
Speaker 6 (08:16):
That's loud.
Speaker 10 (08:16):
I was in the room next door.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
What time of day was it? That was like 1pm.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
It was a weekend.
Speaker 10 (08:23):
I was having a daytime nap.
Speaker 7 (08:25):
That's even more impressive. And I just was.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
And he heard it over the sound of a mower.
He's standing next to a petrol mower.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
And he ran inside.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
And I was still asleep.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
That's incredible. That's a gift.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
That wasn't even like a deep sleep. That was my
Arvo nap and I was gone.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Well, see, Arvo naps, you can come to him and
be like deep sleep. Well, there you go.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
That scares me though because I feel like I immediately
go to catastrophe mode and I think, what if there's
a fire in the house?
Speaker 10 (08:50):
I think that all the time because sometimes I'll wake
up And Jessie's like, I'm having my afternoon nap after work.
And I wake up and Jessie's beside me.
Speaker 7 (08:57):
And I was like, this could have been an intruder.
Speaker 10 (09:00):
I didn't hear him come in.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
I didn't hear him.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
She's napping.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
I'm napping.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
That's interesting. A random could have just gone, yeah, there's
a spot for a nap there. And you don't even know.
So what do you sleep through? 131065.
Speaker 12 (09:12):
It's interesting because I remember when the kids were like little,
like when they were sort of newborn, I'd wake up
to the sound of like a pin dropping.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Really?
Speaker 6 (09:22):
And then now I.
Speaker 12 (09:24):
Could sleep through them two fighting and screaming and punching
and doing it right next to me.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Wow.
Speaker 12 (09:30):
And I'll wake up now sometimes going, when did you
get into bed?
Speaker 6 (09:34):
And Monty's laying, like she's snoring right next to me.
Speaker 12 (09:36):
But it's funny how you say like the noises, like
certain noises, because if I hear a random.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Noise outside, my eyes will sort of, I'll like, I
can hear it.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (09:45):
But if it's rain, hail, I remember Tegan one morning,
I woke up, she goes, Do not tell me you
did not hear a thing last night.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
I'm like, why? It's like a cyclone outside. She goes,
there was hail. There were branches like snapping. A whole
tree fell down.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
The back.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
A whole tree fell down the back.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
How did you sleep through that?
Speaker 6 (10:03):
I didn't even know it rained. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (10:05):
Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 7 (10:06):
I'd dream of that, darling.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
What do you sleep through, 131065? Robin Kipp and Corey Oates.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
In the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Delana from the newsroom slept through an entire stack of
tiles collapsing, crashing.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
And her partner, Moe. Just outside.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Her partner was mowing with a petrol mower. He heard
the incident inside, which was right next to her, and
she slept through it.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
That's extraordinary.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
That is insane.
Speaker 7 (10:29):
Catherine Adenunda, what have you slept through?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
You promise you won't laugh because it hurt.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I can't promise, but tell us.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
You probably will.
Speaker 7 (10:36):
Okay, so I'm a real deep sleeper.
Speaker 9 (10:38):
So I fell out of bed.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
I woke up on the floor.
Speaker 9 (10:43):
I got up and I had fractured my elbow.
Speaker 7 (10:46):
And you slept through that?
Speaker 9 (10:47):
I slept through it all.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
How? Medication, maybe.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Part of it on something.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
That's extraordinary. Hayley on the text message said, good morning, team.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So I once slept through my six-year-old daughter doing a
full face of makeup.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
On me in the afternoon. She thought it was hilarious.
I was not so impressed. You woke up like a clown.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
You're like, what happened? Oh, that's great.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
I've got one, but I didn't.
Speaker 12 (11:15):
You can't say I slept through it, but apparently I
slept through falling off a bar stool once.
Speaker 9 (11:20):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Falling off a bar stool. You had a bit of
help sleeping.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
I had a bit of help sleeping, but I didn't
even know. And they put me in the bed.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Georgia Adam-Warrenfield, what have you slept through?
Speaker 5 (11:32):
Hi.
Speaker 11 (11:32):
Approximately two years ago, I woke up at about 7 a.m.
to smoke outside, and my neighbors had actually told me there.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Was an explosion at.
Speaker 9 (11:40):
3 a.m., and the whole neighbor's house caught on fire.
Speaker 7 (11:43):
And you slept through the whole thing?
Speaker 9 (11:44):
I slept through the whole thing. I had no idea
what was going on until I seen all the news
crew and the fire engines and everything outside.
Speaker 7 (11:52):
That is a skill, mate.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
That is a gift. I mean, unless there's a fire
in your.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
House, it's less of a gift. That's less of a gift.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
That's more problematic.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Ayana of Caboolture, what did you sleep through?
Speaker 11 (12:04):
So it's actually my children. So I'll just quickly set
the scene. We didn't get in time for a house.
So we ended up homeless for a few weeks living.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
Out of a camper van.
Speaker 11 (12:15):
So we had to park our camper van on a property,
which was all good. But we had our two dogs
with us. And I'd gone away to take my girls
to the shops because it was so hot. And our
dog had ripped apart our whole camper van. And so
I had to stitch the camper van by hand. That night,
a massive storm had hit us and it had flooded
(12:38):
the whole tent that the dog had ripped apart. I
had to use all of our clothes to plug the
hole while the girls were sleeping. We're talking storms, like thunder, lightning, everything.
And the girls slept through the whole thing. When we
woke in the morning, it was like a complete war zone.
(12:59):
We had no clothes. We had no towels. We had nothing.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
Oh, the kids had a good sleep, though.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
They just had a wonderful sleep, ready for a full
day of excitement.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Halfway through the podcast.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
There's this funny US comedian by the name of Yakov Smirnoff.
Speaker 7 (13:17):
Have you seen him?
Speaker 1 (13:18):
No.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
Anyway, I think you'll kind of like him.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
We were talking about why, you know, people can sleep
through anything and then some people are light sleepers. Well,
he's run with the idea that women wake up to
their children rather than men.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
And here's why.
Speaker 8 (13:34):
When the woman is sleeping, only 10% of electrical activity
in her.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Brain is shut down.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
Woman is sleeping 90% alert.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
But it's designed by nature.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
So in the middle of the night, she can hear what?
The baby crying. Do you realize that only female voices
just now answer that question?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Man, we don't even know. No, no, no. We know that.
Speaker 8 (14:00):
There are short people living in the house. We've seen
them around. They bring us Cheetos. We just don't know
what they do at night. Because when man is sleeping, 70%
of electrical activity in his brain is shut down.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
At that point, man switches to natural gas.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
That's funny. Isn't that good?
Speaker 8 (14:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Oh, it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I have heard a theory that apparently, and it's going
all the way back to cavemen days, is that men
hear stuff that's outside the house with a far greater
accuracy than women. So we hear the threat that's outside,
that 30% that's on, that's when we're on. If there's
a bear outside, we're on. But anything that's happening inside
the house is not our problem.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
That's my dogs.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
They're not that interested in what's going on in the house.
It must be the same instinct.
Speaker 7 (14:54):
I need to protect.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yes, there's our zone and there's something that's in our
zone that shouldn't be there.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
That's me.
Speaker 7 (14:59):
And you're on it.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Yeah, because Naomi will sleep through possums, you know, jumping
on the roof and stuff. That doesn't bother her at all.
But she can hear Sienna in the distance. I know, yeah.
When opossums attack, I'm ready. Don't you worry about that.
I'm good to go.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, so something really cool has happened in my life
and I wasn't going to bring this to the table
because it feels a little bit like a brag or
I don't even know what it feels like. But then
I thought, no, I work with you too. You won't
let my head get out of control. So feel free
at any time to pop my bubble.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
The one thing I'll say about writing a book, you
don't do it for fun, right? Like it is one
of the hardest things you will ever achieve in your life.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
It takes such dedication.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It takes vulnerability because that's an autobiography.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
But even like any sort of fiction.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Do you reckon a novel would be different?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Oh, I think it still requires.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
You've got to be so disciplined.
Speaker 6 (15:56):
What's the difference?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Well, just because you don't have to tell your own story.
You just tell a story.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
But you still have to create.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Is it true or not?
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
And you have to be able to sit for hours
and hours on your own.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Then you have to try and sell the book into
a publishing house.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And then you have to wait to see if people
actually want to publish it and.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Then read it. Just a quick one.
Speaker 12 (16:17):
Knowing you and Reno and knowing that he's been through
a book, you couldn't pay me enough to write a book.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Right.
Speaker 6 (16:23):
Honestly, I'd never want.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
To do it.
Speaker 11 (16:25):
No way.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
So he didn't enjoy his book writing experience?
Speaker 12 (16:28):
No.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
You're talking about Bronco's Captain, by the way.
Speaker 12 (16:30):
I think it's just all the stuff that you've got
to go through, how long it takes. And then I
guess it's the openness, I guess, you've got to give.
I reckon the other.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Thing about writing a book about yourself that's different to
a novel is you can take it personally if people
don't want it.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
You know what I mean? If you write a novel,
people don't like my dream story, whatever. But you could
take it personally if they don't like your book about you.
Speaker 7 (16:56):
See, it's really interesting.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
I don't care what random people think about me, but
I have had some backlash from people who are in
the book.
Speaker 8 (17:03):
Ah.
Speaker 7 (17:03):
Who are friends and family.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
And I had to be very careful about how I
navigated around that. And I do know that a couple
of people have been very unhappy that it's been published.
Speaker 7 (17:12):
And the only way to deal with that is to say, well, look,
this is my story.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
And so I'm telling it my way. My book is
called Flamingos Aren't Born Pink, by the way. And it's
about the kind of the last 10 years of our
life with my three sons.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
And they end the book.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
But the cool thing that's happened, so it's been out
for a while. It hasn't done as well as that
I hoped it would. I thought that it would find
its own momentum, but the problem was that the publishing
house that I was with um, Francis Whiting book also
came out the same day as me and Anastasia Palaszczuk,
the former premier.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
And her book blew up because of her personal life
very quickly. That happened like the.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Same week, didn't it?
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
And that kind of got arrested.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Things sort of went pear shaped from there.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
If only you could have got one of us to
get arrested, we could have helped.
Speaker 8 (17:55):
I know.
Speaker 7 (17:55):
Why didn't you try harder? Anyway, the super cool thing
that's happened.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
I kind of did.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
What do you No, I'm joking.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
Not at the time.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I did it. Not that week.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
You arrested.
Speaker 6 (18:06):
I did it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I've employed an independent publisher, a publishing like publicist, and
I'm pretty much doing anything anyone will ask me because
I just want to talk about the book.
Speaker 7 (18:17):
And I want to get it in people's hands.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
And so the North Lakes Library have reached out.
Speaker 6 (18:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
And tonight I'm doing an in conversation. So it's like
a Wednesday night in the suburbs.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:28):
And it sold out.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
180 people.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
That's really– and when we did the book launch, there
was 500-plus people there. So it's interesting to me that
it hasn't done as well as you thought because it
feels like the groundswell.
Speaker 6 (18:43):
Yeah, I feel like there's been a lot of.
Speaker 7 (18:45):
Support, a lot of comments.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
And the number one complaint I got from people is
that they couldn't get it.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
No, that's exactly– yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Boys, how long did it take you to get my
book and read it? Oh, no, I gave you a copy.
Speaker 7 (18:55):
How long did it actually take for you to read it?
And Kip, I know you have skimmed through it.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Yeah, I took until the holidays. We had a long
time before holidays. But once I had holidays, I read it.
Speaker 6 (19:08):
Did you read it all?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
I read half of it during the holidays.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
Can I chime in from the newsroom? I've read your book, Robin,
and I love it.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
It's amazing.
Speaker 10 (19:17):
And you're so vulnerable with... everyone to tell your story.
But I'm going tonight because it's.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
In their hood.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
She's coming.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Sorry, my hood, not the hood.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
I was going to say.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
It's in my neighborhood. So I'm so excited.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
North Lakes.
Speaker 10 (19:30):
And yeah, I'm like almost 200 people are coming out.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
And also we have a lot of Northside listeners as well.
Speaker 10 (19:37):
So I know that there's probably going to be a
lot of people there who are excited to just wrap
their arms around Robyn because it's such an amazing feed.
And you guys didn't even give her a round of
applause when she said that she sold it out.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
No, we did. We said well done.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No, I'm just waiting for the– they're being way too nice.
I think it's because I called.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
Them both out. When you said it was sold out,
I was like, oh, yeah, 50 people. There it is.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
How big is the library?
Speaker 6 (20:01):
It's not a library car that big.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Phew.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
I was getting just a little too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Out of myself. Robin Kipp and Corey Oates.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
In the morning.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
This is to do with Hux and daycare. Oh, kindy, sorry.
He'd be so cranky at me.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I hate it when you call it daycare.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
He goes, kindy.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Because a lot of daycares become kindy when they hit
the next. Is that what's happened with him?
Speaker 6 (20:25):
Yeah, so he's, well, what is he, five this year?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
I'll say school next year.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Anyway, we'll deal with that another time.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Have they spoken to you? Have the kindy spoken to
you about his prep for prep?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And he's going to be good. I know.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Okay, good.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Yeah, look, the sitting still part is what I'm worried about.
It's not the part of playing and being nice. It's
the sitting still. But that is not where this story
is going. So I picked up Hux, this was maybe
a week ago. And I didn't think anything of it.
And he's got in the car and I'm like, oh, mate,
how's your day? He goes, the girls wouldn't play with me.
(21:05):
I'm like, oh, okay, that's all right. But I just
figured like, you know, they were just playing with dolls
or something and didn't want hugs. Did they normally play
with him? Well, I don't really know. And I didn't
really get into it. So I just went, oh, that's
all right, mate. You can play with all the boys, blah, blah, blah.
And then a couple of days later, Tegan's like, you know,
(21:26):
did Huck say anything to you at daycare, kindy?
Speaker 4 (21:28):
I'm like.
Speaker 6 (21:29):
Oh, about the girls.
Speaker 12 (21:30):
And she goes, yeah, like, he's actually because, you know,
he loves playing footy and that. Like, they're actually not
playing with him. I'm like, but what do you mean?
She goes, well, all Hux wants to do is play sport.
Speaker 9 (21:43):
Right.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Every day.
Speaker 12 (21:44):
Like, so he, you know, because he loves including, I
think he just loves including everybody, Hux.
Speaker 8 (21:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
He's actually really, he's great at kindy.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
They say.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Like.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
He's inclusive. Everyone plays with everybody. And he's gotten really
offended by it.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Like.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
He got really sad about it.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
But is it because he's tackling them and, like, he's
such a big little unit?
Speaker 1 (22:06):
They just want to do crap.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
They don't want to get, you know, pushed to the ground.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
Well, I've noticed this shit.
Speaker 12 (22:10):
Huxley's gone from being, like, Chunky, which is his nickname, Chunky,
to Tall and Skinny.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Right.
Speaker 6 (22:18):
But I still call him Chunky.
Speaker 12 (22:19):
But he's shot up massively and he's still rough as.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
So he towers over all these kids.
Speaker 12 (22:25):
But, and, but obviously, and Tegan goes, well, No, it's
because he's– all he wants to do is play a sport,
but he's sweaty as. He's sweaty as when I pick
him up.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
He's a hot mess.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
He's a hot mess.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
So if they won't play footy, but then he comes,
I'll sit with you, but he's covered in sweat.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
Yeah, but they don't want to play with him at all.
Poor little fella. I do feel sorry for him.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
That starts at four.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
I know.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
And I'm just like, you'll be all right, mate. Just
go play with all the boys.
Speaker 8 (22:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (22:57):
And he hasn't said anything since. And I've always wanted
to get there and watch him play. Anyway, I got
there yesterday and I just sort of snuck in and
he was playing soccer.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
I'll tell you why. There's a great reason why they
don't want to play with him.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Why?
Speaker 6 (23:10):
He boots that ball harder than anybody there. Like, he's
got a good foot on him.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (23:15):
And he booted this ball and it went straight past
this boy's head at a mile an hour.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
And I went, now I know why the girls don't
want to play with him, mate. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
No.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Yeah, very obvious. They don't want to go to hospital.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, it's just their own safety.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
Fair enough.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
I was having a little look at some conspiracy theories.
this morning.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
Is that a rabbit war and you go down regularly?
Speaker 1 (23:40):
No, it's not. But I do love hearing about them.
And there's some fun ones floating around and there's some
concerning ones floating around. I think I might start with
the funnest one that I think I've heard, which was
that Avril Lavigne. Have you heard this about Avril Lavigne?
This is a theory that's been floating around since 2005
is that she died.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
In 2003, and the person that we think is Avril
Lavigne has been a body double who's been impersonating her,
and her name is Melissa Vandella. And she has been
pretending to be Avril Lavigne since 2003. Why? Well, they're
saying that... Remember, she had the big hit, Complicated, this one.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
And she was famously nervous around people and crowds, and
she hated the fame, and so... And so she disappeared
because she didn't want the limelight anymore. There's theories about
how she may have passed away and how. Some of
them are very sad stories. And so then Melissa... then
continued to be Avril Lavigne.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
Why?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
So that there was a photo taken in 2012, one
post suggesting that Avril was still alive. Good news, guys.
Avril's still alive because she's been seen buying cheese at
a time when Avril was supposed to be battling Lyme's disease.
I think she did. Why would she be buying cheese?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Battle Lyme's disease.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
But she was married to Chad Kroger from Nickelback in 2013.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Or was she?
Speaker 7 (25:08):
So he married a Melissa.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Chad was always married to Melissa, according to this theory.
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
I can't argue that.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
A Brazilian fan page started it in 2005. But Avril
has posted just a couple of years ago.
Speaker 7 (25:22):
She's alive?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
And she made a TikTok video that talked about being
the real Avril.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
Imagine having to do that.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Address it. So now, one that's less fun but I
think holds a bit of water is Princess Di and
Princess Di that her death was no accident. Have you
heard this conspiracy? Yes. Um, and that goes back to, uh,
and actually it was, um, uh, Dodi Fayed's dad that
actually was the first one to, to put it out there.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
Oh yeah. From Harrods.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah. So the car accident that killed her, they're saying
was not an accident at the time of her death.
She was dating Dodi Fayed, who was the Egyptian film
producer who was apparently about to propose that day or
the next day. And so the dad went on and
said that his father, Muhammad, yes, said they were killed
because the monarchy couldn't stand the thought of Diana and
(26:13):
Prince Charles' son being the heirs to the British throne,
having a stepfather who was Egyptian and Muslim.
Speaker 10 (26:19):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
That's what he went on to say.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, he did say that for a really long time.
He died not that long ago.
Speaker 6 (26:25):
In his 90s. And I believe him.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
And some of the things as well is that they're
saying that she was treated on the scene instead of
being rushed to the hospital because they wanted her to die. Yeah,
it's so sad.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Who I don't think have ever been named or certainly
public shamed or jailed.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (26:45):
Were in fact like secret service.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Maybe. Maybe they were never paparazzi at all.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
This is a bit of a fun one. Beyonce and
Jay-Z are Illuminati leaders. Oh, wow.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I mean.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (26:59):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
So they're part of the Enlightened group founded in 1776
in Germany.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
So they're Knight Templars?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Kind of. They are a handful of members believed to
have grown to a couple of hundred with ideas of
grandeur and influence over the world.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
Maybe.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
It might be the reason why they're so weird.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Or why Beyonce got into country music so she could
be seen on a horse, just like the Knight Templars were.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Yes, there.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
She was having a little knight's moment. Or just expanding.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
That is most ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Expanding her influence. And the last one, and I think
you two might buy into this one, is that the
pyramids were built by aliens.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (27:37):
I 100% think that.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
You believe it?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Have you seen the latest of it?
Speaker 8 (27:41):
No.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
How much further they go down.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I think there was something greater than ourselves that assisted
with that.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
There's no question about that.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Well, they did this aerial. They did some new technology scanning.
And they found that it's going down for kilometres. And
this is the thing that gets people, right? Because the
Great Pyramid, this is one of the stats that makes
people think it had to be aliens. The Great Pyramid
consists of about 2.3 million stone blocks of And it's
(28:08):
not just about the numbers, it's the weights. The average
mass weight is between two and a half and 15 tonne.
The biggest problem.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
Per block.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Yeah, is the huge pink granite blocks located in the
king's chamber, which is inside. Some of them are up
to 80 tonnes and were brought from the Aswan quarries hundreds.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Of kilometres away.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
How is it possible that they did that without machinery?
Speaker 7 (28:31):
Well, they didn't and they couldn't.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
They didn't.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
I think it's more interesting that people think that that
isn't a logical explanation.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:38):
Well, to me.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Aliens is the most logical explanation.
Speaker 8 (28:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Or big giant. What?
Speaker 1 (28:45):
That they had giants. I have heard that theory as well.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
That there was giants walking the earth. And that's why,
you know, there's all this folklore about giants, that maybe
they existed.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Wouldn't there be footprints or something? And again, why is
that so scary to think that that wasn't the case?
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
Like, if you can have a dinosaur that eats you,
why can't you have a giant?
Speaker 3 (29:03):
A giant.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
That's what I mean. Like, are they coming back?
Speaker 7 (29:07):
Okay.
Speaker 12 (29:07):
Right.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Are they hiding? I've just realised the time. Anyway, kids,
have a great.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Day at school.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Okay, Practical Magic 2 opens in cinemas on Thursday. And
if you would like to go, we've got some double passes, 131065. Now,
it is the sequel to the 1998 now cult classic,
Practical Magic. It sees the return of all the female stars,
Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock, Stockard Channing.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Is that her real name?
Speaker 11 (29:40):
Name? No.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Oh, thank goodness.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
Susan Antonia Williams Stockard. Stockard was her last name. Channing
was her first husband's name.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 7 (29:52):
It's like me becoming Bailey Smart.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Right.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeah, it's not that ridiculous. But it is ridiculous that
Stockard could ever be anyone's first name.
Speaker 7 (30:01):
I don't think anyone's copied it.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
No.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
No, it didn't start a thing?
Speaker 6 (30:05):
No, it didn't start a thing. I'm surprised it hasn't.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
So this, I was hearing, because I heard the Sandra
Bullock podcast a while ago when she was on Smartless,
and she was saying how Practical Magic, the first one, wasn't,
it failed.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
It didn't do very well at all.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
And then it became a cult classic after it was
like with DVDs.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (30:23):
And it's quite dark, I will say.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
So there's a couple of new cast members, the next
generation of Owen sisters, Maisie Williams, one of the Starks
from Game of Thrones.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (30:34):
She's in it and also Joey King.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
So just to catch you up, the story continues on
from the first where the generation of Owen's sisters are
cursed that any man they love dies and this film
they try and break it.
Speaker 7 (30:49):
No magic is stronger than sisterhood. Cast by fate, tested
by time and never broken. Here's the thing about magic.
It won't be silenced.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
Is this real? Is he going to die?
Speaker 5 (31:06):
It's true.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
We're witches in the fucking curse's room.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
I will never trust you again.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Kylie said she's going to go and fix the curse.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
This will lead her into the dark path.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
If you want to find her, you have to work together.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
My blood.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Your blood.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Our blood.
Speaker 8 (31:27):
All right.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
It's such a girly, girly movie.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
And I loved it.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
Because it's woo-woo too.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 12 (31:32):
It's kind of funny where you say like every guy
that they fall in love with dies, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:38):
Like when you get married and stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Are you suggesting that a part of you dies? A
part of everyone dies?
Speaker 5 (31:45):
Are you?
Speaker 6 (31:46):
Well, I can't tell.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
You're very brave this morning.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
You are very brave. You're saying some crazy things today.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
He said the first one.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
I know, but it's extraordinary.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
And he laughed. That means he agreed.
Speaker 7 (31:59):
Okay, there's a couple of things I'll say about this film.
Speaker 6 (32:01):
Drew, what have you got?
Speaker 7 (32:03):
Anyone else? I am not going to let you derail this.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Okay, sorry.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
I know.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Because it's really good.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
But it is a very girly, girly film.
Speaker 7 (32:12):
I think you three would absolutely hate it.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
It does sound.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
It doesn't seem like there's many guys in it.
Speaker 7 (32:17):
No, there aren't. And that's one of the really great things.
This is a female-led cast and there aren't a lot
of those. There really aren't. Where the women are, and
Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, as I said, and.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Those two are clearly very close good friends.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
They represent sisters in that kind of, because I have
a sister, there's a unique language that.
Speaker 7 (32:37):
You can have with your sister.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
And those two seem to really be able to bring
that to the big screen.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
A couple of things I'd say as a warning is
probably watch the first one again. Right. You don't have to,
and I spoke to people last night that didn't, but
it just brings more meaning because there are referencing back.
Speaker 9 (32:55):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
To the first one, which was in 1998, which holds up,
I will say.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Okay, so if you re-watch it now, it's better than, okay.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
The only other thing, and I only say this because
I don't want it to be part of the review necessarily,
but I went to the toilet straight after and it
was what everyone was talking about at the sinks, like
while I was in the, you know, the plastic surgery.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
On the stars.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Like it's, yeah, Stockard Channing is probably the worst because Rizzo, yeah. Yeah,
because she's 82.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
She's 82.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
And she's had a facelift, I think. Nicole's is pretty
severe too, I'd say.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:32):
Sandra looks amazing. I mean, they're amazingly beautiful women.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
But it just– it was.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
The thing that– Things are meant to move.
Speaker 7 (33:39):
When they left the film, they were like, oh, this
is so great. Oh, my goodness. Did you see their
faces didn't move?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Right, yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
So it was a bit like that.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
But, you know, that doesn't change the context or the–
And I would give it a clear– Seven and a
half to eight.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
Okay.
Speaker 7 (33:51):
Like I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
We've got some doubles to give away right here.
Speaker 7 (33:55):
Karen, 17 rocks.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
Do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (33:58):
Oh, hell yeah. That'd be fantastic.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Awesome.
Speaker 6 (34:00):
You can go.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Done.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
Christy from Joyner.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Yes.
Speaker 6 (34:03):
You want to go?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yes.
Speaker 9 (34:05):
Yes, please.
Speaker 8 (34:06):
Righto.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
And who would you be taking with you, Christy?
Speaker 11 (34:08):
I would like to see if my client would like
to go with me.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
Oh, nice.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm a support worker, yes.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh, perfect.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
Awesome.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Hopefully she'll like to spend the day out. If not,
I'll shout one of my work colleagues.
Speaker 7 (34:20):
Nice on you.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Very good.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
Nicole out of Ormo, do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (34:25):
I'd love to. That'd be fantastic.
Speaker 7 (34:27):
There you go.
Speaker 11 (34:28):
Nice.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
Kim out of Rana Hills, do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (34:31):
Yes, it'd be great.
Speaker 6 (34:32):
Now, who would you take?
Speaker 9 (34:34):
Well, I've got a couple of options because... So even my,
because we've had a death in the family, so I've
got a few options that I could actually take someone.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Nice. You can sort that out.
Speaker 7 (34:51):
Well, there's certainly a lot of woo-woo attached to it.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (34:54):
Trish out of Mount Gravatt, who would you, do you
want to go first of all?
Speaker 9 (34:58):
I do, I do. And just hearing your review, Robin,
I think I'll take my sister instead of my partner.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You know, there were a couple of moments with My sister, Pip,
who lives in Sydney, she's not here very often, and
we did kind of grab each other and squeeze each
other's hands, like just as this kind of lovely moment.
Speaker 7 (35:13):
So, yeah, take your sister, mate.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
There we go.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
I will.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
In fact, if you go Saturday night, then your partner
can watch the Lions.
Speaker 7 (35:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
Oh, I'm watching the Lions.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Oh, yeah, Kevin. Skip it to Sunday.
Speaker 6 (35:25):
I like it.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Rob and Kip and Corey Oates. In the morning.
Hey, it's Rob and Kip with Choreo. It's On Demand,
the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Okay, you will probably hear in this podcast we were
talking with Alana Riley, our newsreader, about her capacity to
sleep through absolutely anything.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And I was saying that I think something happens like
in your body when you have kids that you become
much more of a light sleeper, unless, of course, you're
absolutely exhausted.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
But at halftime I found this comedian who kind of
comically said, Talks about why men wake up and men don't.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
Robin Kip and Corey Oates.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
In the morning.
Speaker 6 (00:34):
131065.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You got a joke?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Something to make us laugh this morning? I don't know.
Speaker 6 (00:37):
I can't believe I'm saying this one.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Go on.
Speaker 6 (00:39):
I think it's really bad. Why are piggy banks so wise?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Why are piggy banks so wise?
Speaker 6 (00:45):
Because they're full of common sense. Ooh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (00:49):
Okay, that's where we're going.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Do you want me to tell you the joke that
Corey told me this morning?
Speaker 7 (00:53):
Go on, I do.
Speaker 6 (00:53):
I'd love you to.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I'd love you to. I bought my wife a pug
for Christmas. And despite the googly eyes, the weird nose,
the bad breath and the rolls of fat, the dog
really seems to like her.
Speaker 7 (01:12):
I don't even. I can't. You just said that out loud.
And what's worse, you repeated it.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Like, it went through Corey's filter, which doesn't exist, through you.
Speaker 7 (01:32):
Your filter? Our boss, Drew, would have heard it the
first time.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
It's early.
Speaker 7 (01:37):
And now you're all chuckling again.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
It's early. Chris, out of the switch.
Speaker 6 (01:41):
Go, Chris.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Good, mate.
Speaker 6 (01:45):
Good.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
After that, how are you both going to go home?
Speaker 7 (01:50):
I'm kind of stunned, Chris.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
It's like working with three-year-olds.
Speaker 7 (01:58):
Okay, what's your joke?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yes, pull up the aircraft, if you will.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Just before I tell you the joke, you were going
on a couple of weeks ago about Vegemite on crumpets.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I've got a new meta one for you. You've got
to get really good, really good fruit toast, like a
cafe-style one, and you put Vegemite on that.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
On fruit toast? Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Yeah, and it balances the sweetness out. It does.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Really?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
You've got to try that one.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yeah, I like marmalade on a fruit toast because then
it gives you that bitterness, but that's a fruit.
Speaker 8 (02:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
But no, Vegemite, just not too much of it, just
a splash.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Just a scrape.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Give it a go. And the other one is, hang
on a sec, so I can get that going on.
And the other one, I had a sandwich bar in
London for ages and our best selling one was a
toasted peanut butter, bacon and banana sandwich.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That is the one that killed Elvis. That's the exact.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
Peanut butter, what is it? Peanut butter.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Peanut butter, bacon and banana. I'm sure that's what he
was obsessed with.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
We need to try that. I do want to try that.
Speaker 9 (03:12):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, anyway, Chris, you're here.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
For a show.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
What do you call an army of babies?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
An army of babies.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
What?
Speaker 9 (03:20):
Infantry.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Infantry.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Thank you, Chris.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Ashley of Beth and Gary East, what's your joke?
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Good morning.
Speaker 10 (03:29):
My joke is if milk.
Speaker 11 (03:31):
drowns cereal, does it make it a serial killer?
Speaker 1 (03:35):
I like that.
Speaker 8 (03:37):
There you go.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
Good question. Daryl Anderson Galper, what's your joke?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Morning, guys. Hey, just so you know, Corey, that joke
of yours was as bad as your tackling ability.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Thanks, mate.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Just loves a little low blow on the way through, Daryl.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
I only hit a much downer than I ever ran
into again.
Speaker 9 (03:56):
Yay!
Speaker 12 (03:57):
All right.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You know, a good mate of mine, Dave, bought himself
a talking centipede for $ 500 and took it home in
a small box. About 30 minutes after he gets home,
he opens the box and asks the centipede, would you
want to go for a beer? Centipede doesn't answer. Raising
his voice, he repeats the question.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Still no reply.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Getting angry, thinking he's been had, he shouts the question
again loudly. at which the centipede sticks his head out
of the box and says, I heard you the first time.
I'm still putting my bloody shoes on.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
That's really good.
Speaker 11 (04:32):
That's cute.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
All right, what have you got?
Speaker 3 (04:34):
131065.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It's Worst Joke Wednesday.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
They're all in uniform and slightly embarrassed.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
It's super cute. I'm going to keep going with this.
Speaker 12 (04:48):
Yesterday I farted on my wallet. Now I have gas money.
Speaker 9 (04:54):
Oh, God.
Speaker 7 (04:57):
Okay, Drew. Drew, our boss, is in the studio with
us most of the time. Do not laugh.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
It encourages him.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
It does encourage.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
He looks to you because he knows what we're going
to be like.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Sue out of Forest Lakes. G'day, Sue.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
G'day, Kip. How are you going?
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Great.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
What's your joke?
Speaker 9 (05:12):
Oh, it's nice and tame today.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Oh, good.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
That's good.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
All right.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum?
Speaker 8 (05:24):
What?
Speaker 5 (05:25):
A meltdown.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Ah, yes, it is.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
A little meltdown. That's great.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Nice.
Speaker 7 (05:30):
Jason Redland-Bey, what's your joke?
Speaker 9 (05:33):
What happened?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Did you hear about the cow that jumped over the
barbed wire fence?
Speaker 6 (05:37):
No.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
No? It was utter disaster.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Oh, dear.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Oh, dear.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Sir?
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Cindy at a green bank, what's your joke?
Speaker 11 (05:51):
Why don't you ever see elephants playing hide and seek?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Why don't you ever see elephants playing hide and seek?
Speaker 11 (05:58):
Because they're really, really good at it.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
That's why you don't see them, because they're experts.
Speaker 7 (06:06):
That's so close.
Speaker 6 (06:07):
Okay, let's get on in.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Oh, gee.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I mean, utter disaster actually got the best laugh this morning.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
There's been some great ones.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
There have been some good ones.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I enjoyed.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Can you remember anything? This is the problem with jokes.
You forget them the moment they've been. The snowman was cute. Yeah,
the meltdown.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You want to go with the meltdown?
Speaker 7 (06:29):
Well, you know, let's see.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Hey, Sue, have you got small people that would like
to go and see Dinosaur Live?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Oh, absolutely.
Speaker 11 (06:37):
I've got an 8 and a 10-year-old next week.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
There you go.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Perfect.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Dinosaur World Live tickets all yours. Well done, Sue.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 11 (06:46):
I've got my nearly 10-year-old standing here jumping up and down.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Perfect. A rawsome family adventure you can book now at dinosaurworldlive.com.au.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Things that you've been able to sleep through incredibly. 131065
is our number if you've slept through something dramatic.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
There are two types of people.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Those that just pass out and no matter what happens
around them, they do not wake up.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:12):
And then the rest of us.
Speaker 9 (07:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:14):
You know, I mean, and I think having.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Kids, something happens biologically and you go from being a
heavy sleeper unless you're exhausted.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
See, Naomi's gone from being a really light sleeper She
used to wake up, every time I'd wake up for work,
she'd wake up and say, I couldn't get back to
sleep and stuff. Since having Sienna, she's so tired that
she sleeps through all of it now. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
It doesn't matter anymore. 131065, because Alana, you have done
something extraordinary.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
Well, yeah, so I struggle getting to sleep sometimes, but
once I'm asleep, there could be a cyclone and I
would sleep through it. And Jessie, my partner, was in
the front yard not long, He could have even been
mowing the lawn and he heard the biggest crash over
everything he was doing, ran inside the house to see
if I was okay because it was just shattering and
(08:03):
basically a big pile of tiles.
Speaker 7 (08:04):
Like we were retiling the toilet room. They'd all fallen
over and smashed everywhere.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
A stack of tiles.
Speaker 10 (08:10):
Because they were on a cardboard box that had gotten soggy.
We didn't realize there was a water. And then it
smashed everywhere.
Speaker 6 (08:16):
That's loud.
Speaker 10 (08:16):
I was in the room next door.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
What time of day was it? That was like 1pm.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
It was a weekend.
Speaker 10 (08:23):
I was having a daytime nap.
Speaker 7 (08:25):
That's even more impressive. And I just was.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
And he heard it over the sound of a mower.
He's standing next to a petrol mower.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
And he ran inside.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
And I was still asleep.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
That's incredible. That's a gift.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
That wasn't even like a deep sleep. That was my
Arvo nap and I was gone.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Well, see, Arvo naps, you can come to him and
be like deep sleep. Well, there you go.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
That scares me though because I feel like I immediately
go to catastrophe mode and I think, what if there's
a fire in the house?
Speaker 10 (08:50):
I think that all the time because sometimes I'll wake
up And Jessie's like, I'm having my afternoon nap after work.
And I wake up and Jessie's beside me.
Speaker 7 (08:57):
And I was like, this could have been an intruder.
Speaker 10 (09:00):
I didn't hear him come in.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
I didn't hear him.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
She's napping.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
I'm napping.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
That's interesting. A random could have just gone, yeah, there's
a spot for a nap there. And you don't even know.
So what do you sleep through? 131065.
Speaker 12 (09:12):
It's interesting because I remember when the kids were like little,
like when they were sort of newborn, I'd wake up
to the sound of like a pin dropping.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Really?
Speaker 6 (09:22):
And then now I.
Speaker 12 (09:24):
Could sleep through them two fighting and screaming and punching
and doing it right next to me.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Wow.
Speaker 12 (09:30):
And I'll wake up now sometimes going, when did you
get into bed?
Speaker 6 (09:34):
And Monty's laying, like she's snoring right next to me.
Speaker 12 (09:36):
But it's funny how you say like the noises, like
certain noises, because if I hear a random.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Noise outside, my eyes will sort of, I'll like, I
can hear it.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (09:45):
But if it's rain, hail, I remember Tegan one morning,
I woke up, she goes, Do not tell me you
did not hear a thing last night.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
I'm like, why? It's like a cyclone outside. She goes,
there was hail. There were branches like snapping. A whole
tree fell down.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
The back.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
A whole tree fell down the back.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
How did you sleep through that?
Speaker 6 (10:03):
I didn't even know it rained. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (10:05):
Oh, my goodness.
Speaker 7 (10:06):
I'd dream of that, darling.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
What do you sleep through, 131065? Robin Kipp and Corey Oates.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
In the morning.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Delana from the newsroom slept through an entire stack of
tiles collapsing, crashing.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
And her partner, Moe. Just outside.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Her partner was mowing with a petrol mower. He heard
the incident inside, which was right next to her, and
she slept through it.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
That's extraordinary.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
That is insane.
Speaker 7 (10:29):
Catherine Adenunda, what have you slept through?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
You promise you won't laugh because it hurt.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I can't promise, but tell us.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
You probably will.
Speaker 7 (10:36):
Okay, so I'm a real deep sleeper.
Speaker 9 (10:38):
So I fell out of bed.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
I woke up on the floor.
Speaker 9 (10:43):
I got up and I had fractured my elbow.
Speaker 7 (10:46):
And you slept through that?
Speaker 9 (10:47):
I slept through it all.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
How? Medication, maybe.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Part of it on something.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
That's extraordinary. Hayley on the text message said, good morning, team.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So I once slept through my six-year-old daughter doing a
full face of makeup.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
On me in the afternoon. She thought it was hilarious.
I was not so impressed. You woke up like a clown.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
You're like, what happened? Oh, that's great.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
I've got one, but I didn't.
Speaker 12 (11:15):
You can't say I slept through it, but apparently I
slept through falling off a bar stool once.
Speaker 9 (11:20):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Falling off a bar stool. You had a bit of
help sleeping.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
I had a bit of help sleeping, but I didn't
even know. And they put me in the bed.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Georgia Adam-Warrenfield, what have you slept through?
Speaker 5 (11:32):
Hi.
Speaker 11 (11:32):
Approximately two years ago, I woke up at about 7 a.m.
to smoke outside, and my neighbors had actually told me there.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Was an explosion at.
Speaker 9 (11:40):
3 a.m., and the whole neighbor's house caught on fire.
Speaker 7 (11:43):
And you slept through the whole thing?
Speaker 9 (11:44):
I slept through the whole thing. I had no idea
what was going on until I seen all the news
crew and the fire engines and everything outside.
Speaker 7 (11:52):
That is a skill, mate.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
That is a gift. I mean, unless there's a fire
in your.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
House, it's less of a gift. That's less of a gift.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
That's more problematic.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Ayana of Caboolture, what did you sleep through?
Speaker 11 (12:04):
So it's actually my children. So I'll just quickly set
the scene. We didn't get in time for a house.
So we ended up homeless for a few weeks living.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
Out of a camper van.
Speaker 11 (12:15):
So we had to park our camper van on a property,
which was all good. But we had our two dogs
with us. And I'd gone away to take my girls
to the shops because it was so hot. And our
dog had ripped apart our whole camper van. And so
I had to stitch the camper van by hand. That night,
a massive storm had hit us and it had flooded
(12:38):
the whole tent that the dog had ripped apart. I
had to use all of our clothes to plug the
hole while the girls were sleeping. We're talking storms, like thunder, lightning, everything.
And the girls slept through the whole thing. When we
woke in the morning, it was like a complete war zone.
(12:59):
We had no clothes. We had no towels. We had nothing.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
Oh, the kids had a good sleep, though.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
They just had a wonderful sleep, ready for a full
day of excitement.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
Robin, Kip and Corey Oates in the morning.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Halfway through the podcast.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
There's this funny US comedian by the name of Yakov Smirnoff.
Speaker 7 (13:17):
Have you seen him?
Speaker 1 (13:18):
No.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
Anyway, I think you'll kind of like him.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
We were talking about why, you know, people can sleep
through anything and then some people are light sleepers. Well,
he's run with the idea that women wake up to
their children rather than men.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
And here's why.
Speaker 8 (13:34):
When the woman is sleeping, only 10% of electrical activity
in her.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Brain is shut down.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
Woman is sleeping 90% alert.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
But it's designed by nature.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
So in the middle of the night, she can hear what?
The baby crying. Do you realize that only female voices
just now answer that question?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Man, we don't even know. No, no, no. We know that.
Speaker 8 (14:00):
There are short people living in the house. We've seen
them around. They bring us Cheetos. We just don't know
what they do at night. Because when man is sleeping, 70%
of electrical activity in his brain is shut down.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
At that point, man switches to natural gas.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
That's funny. Isn't that good?
Speaker 8 (14:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Oh, it's so funny.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I have heard a theory that apparently, and it's going
all the way back to cavemen days, is that men
hear stuff that's outside the house with a far greater
accuracy than women. So we hear the threat that's outside,
that 30% that's on, that's when we're on. If there's
a bear outside, we're on. But anything that's happening inside
the house is not our problem.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
That's my dogs.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
They're not that interested in what's going on in the house.
It must be the same instinct.
Speaker 7 (14:54):
I need to protect.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yes, there's our zone and there's something that's in our
zone that shouldn't be there.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
That's me.
Speaker 7 (14:59):
And you're on it.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Yeah, because Naomi will sleep through possums, you know, jumping
on the roof and stuff. That doesn't bother her at all.
But she can hear Sienna in the distance. I know, yeah.
When opossums attack, I'm ready. Don't you worry about that.
I'm good to go.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, so something really cool has happened in my life
and I wasn't going to bring this to the table
because it feels a little bit like a brag or
I don't even know what it feels like. But then
I thought, no, I work with you too. You won't
let my head get out of control. So feel free
at any time to pop my bubble.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
The one thing I'll say about writing a book, you
don't do it for fun, right? Like it is one
of the hardest things you will ever achieve in your life.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
It takes such dedication.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
It takes vulnerability because that's an autobiography.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
But even like any sort of fiction.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Do you reckon a novel would be different?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Oh, I think it still requires.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
You've got to be so disciplined.
Speaker 6 (15:56):
What's the difference?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Well, just because you don't have to tell your own story.
You just tell a story.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
But you still have to create.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Is it true or not?
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
And you have to be able to sit for hours
and hours on your own.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Then you have to try and sell the book into
a publishing house.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And then you have to wait to see if people
actually want to publish it and.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Then read it. Just a quick one.
Speaker 12 (16:17):
Knowing you and Reno and knowing that he's been through
a book, you couldn't pay me enough to write a book.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Right.
Speaker 6 (16:23):
Honestly, I'd never want.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
To do it.
Speaker 11 (16:25):
No way.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
So he didn't enjoy his book writing experience?
Speaker 12 (16:28):
No.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
You're talking about Bronco's Captain, by the way.
Speaker 12 (16:30):
I think it's just all the stuff that you've got
to go through, how long it takes. And then I
guess it's the openness, I guess, you've got to give.
I reckon the other.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Thing about writing a book about yourself that's different to
a novel is you can take it personally if people
don't want it.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
You know what I mean? If you write a novel,
people don't like my dream story, whatever. But you could
take it personally if they don't like your book about you.
Speaker 7 (16:56):
See, it's really interesting.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
I don't care what random people think about me, but
I have had some backlash from people who are in
the book.
Speaker 8 (17:03):
Ah.
Speaker 7 (17:03):
Who are friends and family.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
And I had to be very careful about how I
navigated around that. And I do know that a couple
of people have been very unhappy that it's been published.
Speaker 7 (17:12):
And the only way to deal with that is to say, well, look,
this is my story.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
And so I'm telling it my way. My book is
called Flamingos Aren't Born Pink, by the way. And it's
about the kind of the last 10 years of our
life with my three sons.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
And they end the book.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
But the cool thing that's happened, so it's been out
for a while. It hasn't done as well as that
I hoped it would. I thought that it would find
its own momentum, but the problem was that the publishing
house that I was with um, Francis Whiting book also
came out the same day as me and Anastasia Palaszczuk,
the former premier.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
And her book blew up because of her personal life
very quickly. That happened like the.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Same week, didn't it?
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
And that kind of got arrested.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Things sort of went pear shaped from there.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
If only you could have got one of us to
get arrested, we could have helped.
Speaker 8 (17:55):
I know.
Speaker 7 (17:55):
Why didn't you try harder? Anyway, the super cool thing
that's happened.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
I kind of did.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
What do you No, I'm joking.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
Not at the time.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I did it. Not that week.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
You arrested.
Speaker 6 (18:06):
I did it. Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I've employed an independent publisher, a publishing like publicist, and
I'm pretty much doing anything anyone will ask me because
I just want to talk about the book.
Speaker 7 (18:17):
And I want to get it in people's hands.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
And so the North Lakes Library have reached out.
Speaker 6 (18:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
And tonight I'm doing an in conversation. So it's like
a Wednesday night in the suburbs.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:28):
And it sold out.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
180 people.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
That's really– and when we did the book launch, there
was 500-plus people there. So it's interesting to me that
it hasn't done as well as you thought because it
feels like the groundswell.
Speaker 6 (18:43):
Yeah, I feel like there's been a lot of.
Speaker 7 (18:45):
Support, a lot of comments.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
And the number one complaint I got from people is
that they couldn't get it.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
No, that's exactly– yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Boys, how long did it take you to get my
book and read it? Oh, no, I gave you a copy.
Speaker 7 (18:55):
How long did it actually take for you to read it?
And Kip, I know you have skimmed through it.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Yeah, I took until the holidays. We had a long
time before holidays. But once I had holidays, I read it.
Speaker 6 (19:08):
Did you read it all?
Speaker 1 (19:08):
I read half of it during the holidays.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
Can I chime in from the newsroom? I've read your book, Robin,
and I love it.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
It's amazing.
Speaker 10 (19:17):
And you're so vulnerable with... everyone to tell your story.
But I'm going tonight because it's.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
In their hood.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
She's coming.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Sorry, my hood, not the hood.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
I was going to say.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
It's in my neighborhood. So I'm so excited.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
North Lakes.
Speaker 10 (19:30):
And yeah, I'm like almost 200 people are coming out.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
And also we have a lot of Northside listeners as well.
Speaker 10 (19:37):
So I know that there's probably going to be a
lot of people there who are excited to just wrap
their arms around Robyn because it's such an amazing feed.
And you guys didn't even give her a round of
applause when she said that she sold it out.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
No, we did. We said well done.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No, I'm just waiting for the– they're being way too nice.
I think it's because I called.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
Them both out. When you said it was sold out,
I was like, oh, yeah, 50 people. There it is.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
How big is the library?
Speaker 6 (20:01):
It's not a library car that big.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Phew.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
I was getting just a little too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Out of myself. Robin Kipp and Corey Oates.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
In the morning.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
This is to do with Hux and daycare. Oh, kindy, sorry.
He'd be so cranky at me.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
I hate it when you call it daycare.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
He goes, kindy.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Because a lot of daycares become kindy when they hit
the next. Is that what's happened with him?
Speaker 6 (20:25):
Yeah, so he's, well, what is he, five this year?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
I'll say school next year.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Anyway, we'll deal with that another time.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Have they spoken to you? Have the kindy spoken to
you about his prep for prep?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And he's going to be good. I know.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Okay, good.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Yeah, look, the sitting still part is what I'm worried about.
It's not the part of playing and being nice. It's
the sitting still. But that is not where this story
is going. So I picked up Hux, this was maybe
a week ago. And I didn't think anything of it.
And he's got in the car and I'm like, oh, mate,
how's your day? He goes, the girls wouldn't play with me.
(21:05):
I'm like, oh, okay, that's all right. But I just
figured like, you know, they were just playing with dolls
or something and didn't want hugs. Did they normally play
with him? Well, I don't really know. And I didn't
really get into it. So I just went, oh, that's
all right, mate. You can play with all the boys, blah, blah, blah.
And then a couple of days later, Tegan's like, you know,
(21:26):
did Huck say anything to you at daycare, kindy?
Speaker 4 (21:28):
I'm like.
Speaker 6 (21:29):
Oh, about the girls.
Speaker 12 (21:30):
And she goes, yeah, like, he's actually because, you know,
he loves playing footy and that. Like, they're actually not
playing with him. I'm like, but what do you mean?
She goes, well, all Hux wants to do is play sport.
Speaker 9 (21:43):
Right.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Every day.
Speaker 12 (21:44):
Like, so he, you know, because he loves including, I
think he just loves including everybody, Hux.
Speaker 8 (21:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
He's actually really, he's great at kindy.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
They say.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Like.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
He's inclusive. Everyone plays with everybody. And he's gotten really
offended by it.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Like.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
He got really sad about it.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
But is it because he's tackling them and, like, he's
such a big little unit?
Speaker 1 (22:06):
They just want to do crap.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
They don't want to get, you know, pushed to the ground.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
Well, I've noticed this shit.
Speaker 12 (22:10):
Huxley's gone from being, like, Chunky, which is his nickname, Chunky,
to Tall and Skinny.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Right.
Speaker 6 (22:18):
But I still call him Chunky.
Speaker 12 (22:19):
But he's shot up massively and he's still rough as.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
So he towers over all these kids.
Speaker 12 (22:25):
But, and, but obviously, and Tegan goes, well, No, it's
because he's– all he wants to do is play a sport,
but he's sweaty as. He's sweaty as when I pick
him up.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
He's a hot mess.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
He's a hot mess.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
So if they won't play footy, but then he comes,
I'll sit with you, but he's covered in sweat.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
Yeah, but they don't want to play with him at all.
Poor little fella. I do feel sorry for him.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
That starts at four.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
I know.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
And I'm just like, you'll be all right, mate. Just
go play with all the boys.
Speaker 8 (22:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (22:57):
And he hasn't said anything since. And I've always wanted
to get there and watch him play. Anyway, I got
there yesterday and I just sort of snuck in and
he was playing soccer.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
I'll tell you why. There's a great reason why they
don't want to play with him.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Why?
Speaker 6 (23:10):
He boots that ball harder than anybody there. Like, he's
got a good foot on him.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (23:15):
And he booted this ball and it went straight past
this boy's head at a mile an hour.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
And I went, now I know why the girls don't
want to play with him, mate. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
No.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Yeah, very obvious. They don't want to go to hospital.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, it's just their own safety.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
Fair enough.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
I was having a little look at some conspiracy theories.
this morning.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
Is that a rabbit war and you go down regularly?
Speaker 1 (23:40):
No, it's not. But I do love hearing about them.
And there's some fun ones floating around and there's some
concerning ones floating around. I think I might start with
the funnest one that I think I've heard, which was
that Avril Lavigne. Have you heard this about Avril Lavigne?
This is a theory that's been floating around since 2005
is that she died.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
In 2003, and the person that we think is Avril
Lavigne has been a body double who's been impersonating her,
and her name is Melissa Vandella. And she has been
pretending to be Avril Lavigne since 2003. Why? Well, they're
saying that... Remember, she had the big hit, Complicated, this one.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
And she was famously nervous around people and crowds, and
she hated the fame, and so... And so she disappeared
because she didn't want the limelight anymore. There's theories about
how she may have passed away and how. Some of
them are very sad stories. And so then Melissa... then
continued to be Avril Lavigne.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
Why?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
So that there was a photo taken in 2012, one
post suggesting that Avril was still alive. Good news, guys.
Avril's still alive because she's been seen buying cheese at
a time when Avril was supposed to be battling Lyme's disease.
I think she did. Why would she be buying cheese?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Battle Lyme's disease.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
But she was married to Chad Kroger from Nickelback in 2013.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Or was she?
Speaker 7 (25:08):
So he married a Melissa.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Chad was always married to Melissa, according to this theory.
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
I can't argue that.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
A Brazilian fan page started it in 2005. But Avril
has posted just a couple of years ago.
Speaker 7 (25:22):
She's alive?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
And she made a TikTok video that talked about being
the real Avril.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
Imagine having to do that.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Address it. So now, one that's less fun but I
think holds a bit of water is Princess Di and
Princess Di that her death was no accident. Have you
heard this conspiracy? Yes. Um, and that goes back to, uh,
and actually it was, um, uh, Dodi Fayed's dad that
actually was the first one to, to put it out there.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
Oh yeah. From Harrods.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Yeah. So the car accident that killed her, they're saying
was not an accident at the time of her death.
She was dating Dodi Fayed, who was the Egyptian film
producer who was apparently about to propose that day or
the next day. And so the dad went on and
said that his father, Muhammad, yes, said they were killed
because the monarchy couldn't stand the thought of Diana and
(26:13):
Prince Charles' son being the heirs to the British throne,
having a stepfather who was Egyptian and Muslim.
Speaker 10 (26:19):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
That's what he went on to say.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Yeah, he did say that for a really long time.
He died not that long ago.
Speaker 6 (26:25):
In his 90s. And I believe him.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
And some of the things as well is that they're
saying that she was treated on the scene instead of
being rushed to the hospital because they wanted her to die. Yeah,
it's so sad.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Who I don't think have ever been named or certainly
public shamed or jailed.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (26:45):
Were in fact like secret service.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Maybe. Maybe they were never paparazzi at all.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
This is a bit of a fun one. Beyonce and
Jay-Z are Illuminati leaders. Oh, wow.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I mean.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (26:59):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
So they're part of the Enlightened group founded in 1776
in Germany.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
So they're Knight Templars?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Kind of. They are a handful of members believed to
have grown to a couple of hundred with ideas of
grandeur and influence over the world.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
Maybe.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
It might be the reason why they're so weird.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Or why Beyonce got into country music so she could
be seen on a horse, just like the Knight Templars were.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Yes, there.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
She was having a little knight's moment. Or just expanding.
Speaker 6 (27:27):
That is most ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Expanding her influence. And the last one, and I think
you two might buy into this one, is that the
pyramids were built by aliens.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (27:37):
I 100% think that.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
You believe it?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Have you seen the latest of it?
Speaker 8 (27:41):
No.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
How much further they go down.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I think there was something greater than ourselves that assisted
with that.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
There's no question about that.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Well, they did this aerial. They did some new technology scanning.
And they found that it's going down for kilometres. And
this is the thing that gets people, right? Because the
Great Pyramid, this is one of the stats that makes
people think it had to be aliens. The Great Pyramid
consists of about 2.3 million stone blocks of And it's
(28:08):
not just about the numbers, it's the weights. The average
mass weight is between two and a half and 15 tonne.
The biggest problem.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
Per block.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Yeah, is the huge pink granite blocks located in the
king's chamber, which is inside. Some of them are up
to 80 tonnes and were brought from the Aswan quarries hundreds.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Of kilometres away.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
How is it possible that they did that without machinery?
Speaker 7 (28:31):
Well, they didn't and they couldn't.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
They didn't.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
I think it's more interesting that people think that that
isn't a logical explanation.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:38):
Well, to me.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Aliens is the most logical explanation.
Speaker 8 (28:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Or big giant. What?
Speaker 1 (28:45):
That they had giants. I have heard that theory as well.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
That there was giants walking the earth. And that's why,
you know, there's all this folklore about giants, that maybe
they existed.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Wouldn't there be footprints or something? And again, why is
that so scary to think that that wasn't the case?
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
Like, if you can have a dinosaur that eats you,
why can't you have a giant?
Speaker 3 (29:03):
A giant.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
That's what I mean. Like, are they coming back?
Speaker 7 (29:07):
Okay.
Speaker 12 (29:07):
Right.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Are they hiding? I've just realised the time. Anyway, kids,
have a great.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Day at school.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Okay, Practical Magic 2 opens in cinemas on Thursday. And
if you would like to go, we've got some double passes, 131065. Now,
it is the sequel to the 1998 now cult classic,
Practical Magic. It sees the return of all the female stars,
Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock, Stockard Channing.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Is that her real name?
Speaker 11 (29:40):
Name? No.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Oh, thank goodness.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
Susan Antonia Williams Stockard. Stockard was her last name. Channing
was her first husband's name.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 7 (29:52):
It's like me becoming Bailey Smart.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Right.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeah, it's not that ridiculous. But it is ridiculous that
Stockard could ever be anyone's first name.
Speaker 7 (30:01):
I don't think anyone's copied it.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
No.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
No, it didn't start a thing?
Speaker 6 (30:05):
No, it didn't start a thing. I'm surprised it hasn't.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
So this, I was hearing, because I heard the Sandra
Bullock podcast a while ago when she was on Smartless,
and she was saying how Practical Magic, the first one, wasn't,
it failed.
Speaker 7 (30:17):
It didn't do very well at all.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
And then it became a cult classic after it was
like with DVDs.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (30:23):
And it's quite dark, I will say.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
So there's a couple of new cast members, the next
generation of Owen sisters, Maisie Williams, one of the Starks
from Game of Thrones.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 7 (30:34):
She's in it and also Joey King.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
So just to catch you up, the story continues on
from the first where the generation of Owen's sisters are
cursed that any man they love dies and this film
they try and break it.
Speaker 7 (30:49):
No magic is stronger than sisterhood. Cast by fate, tested
by time and never broken. Here's the thing about magic.
It won't be silenced.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
Is this real? Is he going to die?
Speaker 5 (31:06):
It's true.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
We're witches in the fucking curse's room.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
I will never trust you again.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Kylie said she's going to go and fix the curse.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
This will lead her into the dark path.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
If you want to find her, you have to work together.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
My blood.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Your blood.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Our blood.
Speaker 8 (31:27):
All right.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
It's such a girly, girly movie.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
And I loved it.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
Because it's woo-woo too.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 12 (31:32):
It's kind of funny where you say like every guy
that they fall in love with dies, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:38):
Like when you get married and stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Are you suggesting that a part of you dies? A
part of everyone dies?
Speaker 5 (31:45):
Are you?
Speaker 6 (31:46):
Well, I can't tell.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
You're very brave this morning.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
You are very brave. You're saying some crazy things today.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
He said the first one.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
I know, but it's extraordinary.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
And he laughed. That means he agreed.
Speaker 7 (31:59):
Okay, there's a couple of things I'll say about this film.
Speaker 6 (32:01):
Drew, what have you got?
Speaker 7 (32:03):
Anyone else? I am not going to let you derail this.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Okay, sorry.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
I know.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Because it's really good.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
But it is a very girly, girly film.
Speaker 7 (32:12):
I think you three would absolutely hate it.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
It does sound.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
It doesn't seem like there's many guys in it.
Speaker 7 (32:17):
No, there aren't. And that's one of the really great things.
This is a female-led cast and there aren't a lot
of those. There really aren't. Where the women are, and
Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, as I said, and.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Those two are clearly very close good friends.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
They represent sisters in that kind of, because I have
a sister, there's a unique language that.
Speaker 7 (32:37):
You can have with your sister.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (32:39):
And those two seem to really be able to bring
that to the big screen.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
A couple of things I'd say as a warning is
probably watch the first one again. Right. You don't have to,
and I spoke to people last night that didn't, but
it just brings more meaning because there are referencing back.
Speaker 9 (32:55):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
To the first one, which was in 1998, which holds up,
I will say.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Okay, so if you re-watch it now, it's better than, okay.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
The only other thing, and I only say this because
I don't want it to be part of the review necessarily,
but I went to the toilet straight after and it
was what everyone was talking about at the sinks, like
while I was in the, you know, the plastic surgery.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
On the stars.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Like it's, yeah, Stockard Channing is probably the worst because Rizzo, yeah. Yeah,
because she's 82.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
She's 82.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
And she's had a facelift, I think. Nicole's is pretty
severe too, I'd say.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:32):
Sandra looks amazing. I mean, they're amazingly beautiful women.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Yes.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
But it just– it was.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
The thing that– Things are meant to move.
Speaker 7 (33:39):
When they left the film, they were like, oh, this
is so great. Oh, my goodness. Did you see their
faces didn't move?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Right, yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
So it was a bit like that.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
But, you know, that doesn't change the context or the–
And I would give it a clear– Seven and a
half to eight.
Speaker 8 (33:51):
Okay.
Speaker 7 (33:51):
Like I really enjoyed it.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
We've got some doubles to give away right here.
Speaker 7 (33:55):
Karen, 17 rocks.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
Do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (33:58):
Oh, hell yeah. That'd be fantastic.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Awesome.
Speaker 6 (34:00):
You can go.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Done.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
Christy from Joyner.
Speaker 4 (34:03):
Yes.
Speaker 6 (34:03):
You want to go?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Yes.
Speaker 9 (34:05):
Yes, please.
Speaker 8 (34:06):
Righto.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
And who would you be taking with you, Christy?
Speaker 11 (34:08):
I would like to see if my client would like
to go with me.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
Oh, nice.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm a support worker, yes.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh, perfect.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
Awesome.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Hopefully she'll like to spend the day out. If not,
I'll shout one of my work colleagues.
Speaker 7 (34:20):
Nice on you.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Very good.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
Nicole out of Ormo, do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (34:25):
I'd love to. That'd be fantastic.
Speaker 7 (34:27):
There you go.
Speaker 11 (34:28):
Nice.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
Kim out of Rana Hills, do you want to go?
Speaker 9 (34:31):
Yes, it'd be great.
Speaker 6 (34:32):
Now, who would you take?
Speaker 9 (34:34):
Well, I've got a couple of options because... So even my,
because we've had a death in the family, so I've
got a few options that I could actually take someone.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Nice. You can sort that out.
Speaker 7 (34:51):
Well, there's certainly a lot of woo-woo attached to it.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (34:54):
Trish out of Mount Gravatt, who would you, do you
want to go first of all?
Speaker 9 (34:58):
I do, I do. And just hearing your review, Robin,
I think I'll take my sister instead of my partner.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You know, there were a couple of moments with My sister, Pip,
who lives in Sydney, she's not here very often, and
we did kind of grab each other and squeeze each
other's hands, like just as this kind of lovely moment.
Speaker 7 (35:13):
So, yeah, take your sister, mate.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
There we go.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
I will.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
In fact, if you go Saturday night, then your partner
can watch the Lions.
Speaker 7 (35:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
Oh, I'm watching the Lions.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Oh, yeah, Kevin. Skip it to Sunday.
Speaker 6 (35:25):
I like it.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Rob and Kip and Corey Oates. In the morning.
