Speaker 1 (00:06):
Hi friends, it's mail. Let's Monty. This is your Show
and Tell show today, get out, Hello, Hello, everyone, Welcome.
Like I said, it is Malamonti and as per Jojul
mal kick off today's podcast with one of your fascinating facts.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I'm not really I don't have a heart on for
this one, but it is interesting. Do you know that
outer space is only an hour away if you could
drive your car straight into the sky at one hundred
kilometers per hour?
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I sort of find that bit hard to believe too.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Really an hour way? Wow, that's like where I am
to Queensland to the airport. It's like most people. I know,
you're a bit closer to the airport, aren't you, But
that's like most people just drive into the airport, but
you could drive to space. They'll probably fuck it, make
roads one day that will go on. I don't know
(01:03):
how of it they might.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Would you ever want to go to space?
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Never? Hy No? And I hate Katie Perry more and
going to space too.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
That ruined her.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Didn't it ruined it just ruined everything and then getting
out and kissing the Earth after three minutes up there? Anyway,
what's the dissect that? Speaking of celebrities, though. Blast from
the Past and A Corner Kova, forty four years old
pregnant with her first fourth child, came out last week.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
And A Corner Kova and.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Corner Cova married to Enricane Glaciers don't don't know the
late gotta love that song.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I'm going to say something so horrible, okay horrible. Yeah,
they are too magnificent looking people. You would assume, oh
my god, their children would be like storious, yes, but
sometimes you know it's not the case.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
No, And so you've seen pictures of them. I haven't.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I haven't. I haven't. I'm saying I'm just I'm wondering,
That's what I'm saying. I'm wondering with their kids, because
you know, sometimes it goes the other way to very
average people make a stunning child.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Yeah, that's true. That's Sam and I with Odie, like,
Odie's to me, the most glorious looking child.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Can I tell you all of your kids are equally gorgeous.
It looks wise, yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Ah see, to me, Odie is just fantastic. But that's
because I just am obsessed with him. But I don't
know what the Corner Cover Kids or Iglaciers kids look like,
but I would think they would be quite gorgeous, like
Bradenane's kids are so fucking beautiful. It is wild. I
saw the sun the other day. I forget what his
(02:47):
name is. I don't know what one not Knocks. Oh
maybe it was Knocks.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
He was one of the twins.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
I think, Oh my god, Vivian, beautiful name. He was
leaving like gym and I was like, that is such
a perfect looking man. He's like the perfect split of
Brad and Ange.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Their kids look like, you know, like in the olden days,
people would put together a composite of like, yeah, the
picture of the mum and dad, what are their kids
gonna look like? That's what it looks like, because totally
you can't even spot which one looks more.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
No, it's morphed so beautifully together that they're the most
ultimate genes. But anyway, I know this is awful because
I know probably some of you guys listening have had
a kid older than forty four, But myself being forty four, now,
if I had a baby, I would be so terribly upset,
(03:44):
Like the thought of falling pregnant now makes me wanna spew.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I think this could be potentially a thing that a
lot of women may find themselves in at this stage,
because you know, like also it's credible luck to be
able to get pregnant naturally.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Of her yes, And so this is a very touchy
topic because I know there's many of you listening that
have been through hell probably to have babies as well.
But just for open book conversation that we have here,
I just a friend the other day her IUD didn't
work and she ended up having an eptopic pregnancy, which
(04:25):
was horrific. Yeah, but she's like, the IUD didn't work.
Then I had another friend who the other day went
to get hers out and they couldn't find the string.
And she said, for forty minutes they were digging around
using every instrument to try and get that thing out.
And she said the blood she lost. She had to
stay there for a while after it because it was
(04:48):
so intense. Three people, two doctors and one nurse just
fucking knuckle or elbow deep upper to try and get
her IUD out.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That's terrible.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
That's a terrible.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
But I think in this stage people probably assume if
their periods stopped, I'm in perimenopause or whatever. It's not
realizing that, Oh, hang on a minute, yeah, and it
might you know, like this is just my opinion, so
no one come at me. But then it's too late
if you wanted to explore other options. So say you
(05:22):
wanted to have an abortion, yes, by the time you
find out, it might be too late.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I wonder what the cutoff is in sign countries. It's
really I think it is like quite full on. I
think it might be I'm going to look it up.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
My personal opinion, unless it is for some very drastic
medical thing, like I don't think you should go past
twelve weeks, surely, because when you have that twelve week ultrasound,
that's like a fool or this might be a very
triggering conversation for someone. But yeah, but beyond twelve weeks,
I'm like, I don't I personally don't think I could.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Do it well. In New South Wales it's nine weeks. Well,
surgical abortions are twenty two weeks. I remember thinking, I guess,
I guess, I don't know. Maybe up to nine weeks
is a pill. And then the other way is I've
got a strategically yeah, yeah, which is really that is
(06:25):
very I remember thinking it's quite like it was quite
a long way along your pregnancies.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I think that would be under particular circumstances. Surely that's
got to be, like there's some significant things going on
that maybe they say the baby won't survive past certain
few hours or whatever.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
But I just because I have had my three boys,
I look and they're getting bigger. And I just last night,
I don't know, I had a moment while I was
laying with Backs and Ben Harper's Beautiful Boy came on.
This one could have and that song Sam used to
(07:08):
hold backs and rock backs to two as a baby,
and I just had a moment of going, I'm never
getting back to that baby, Like no matter how much
or anything, no matter how much I could pay, nothing
can get me back to that baby. Like that baby's
gone and I'm my next to my thirteen year old. Yeah,
(07:28):
And I just had a moment of going, oh my god,
this happens so quickly. And then I see a baby
on the street, and I fucking love babies. But the
thought of my age, because I'm so fucking cooked of
doing it again, Oh my god. The difference between having
Backs and then having Odie when I was forty was huge.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I think I could. I think I could have a baby,
and yeah, yes, I couldn't do the toddler years, the
training though, all that stuff. I also think I miss
them when they were so little, right, I like that
feeling you were talking about. But I look back and think, fuck,
I was so much more patient back then.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I don't reckon you were, but no, I was.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I was. I know I was.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
I was.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Really, I was so much of a better mum back then. Really, yeah,
I was a much better mum then than I am now.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
But you were full time mummy Maul as well, where
now you're very busy, so split on moment.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
But I did always work as well, like I edited,
and there was a bit of show and tell stuff.
I always had something.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Else going on. It's not like Neil, yeah, where I
feel like I've never had the patience. Although yesterday I
was in the Chemist with Odie and he doesn't. He's
at that age where everything's a question. So it drives me. Yeah,
fucking insane. But I was sitting next to a lady
who was a bit older, and she said he asked
so many questions, and she said, you are so patient
(08:58):
and great at responding to him. I remember my mum
used to say, stop asking questions, and I said, well,
it does get to the point where I do that,
but it'll just the questions are so mundane and so
and I feel like I have to explain things to
him because I'm like if I don't, or if I
just brush it off, I'm like, then he doesn't learn.
(09:18):
But fuck, it's exhausting.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah, I know. That's one of those things that you
know when you before you have kids and you say
I'm never gonna do this sort of yeah, let my
keep being on a screen whatever. I remember I used
to hate when I would question something as a kid
and the answer was because I said so, yeah, And
I was like, I'm never doing that. Yeah, that's probably
my second most use because I said so, boy can't
(09:44):
I because I said so? That's why I've explained it
fifty times.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Well, that's the thing is I explained things that back
to will be like can I watch this show? And
then I'll be like, no, it's too old for you,
it's too graphic, there's sex scenes in it, there's drugs,
and then it'll be like why can I please watch it?
And keep going and I'm like, I am not saying
it again. That comes out of my mouth a million
times because they just keep going. I'm like, you have
(10:09):
to sometimes hear no. Like kids hearing no, it's like
you have just told them, oh, I'm about to die,
and their reaction is the same as if they hear
a no.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yeah, it's really be sing like people are scared for
their kids to be annoyed at them or angry at them.
I like, I don't like it. I don't like that feeling.
But I'm also pretty comfortable with I'm your parent.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Them being the shit and getting in the shits with you.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
See, I'm the opposite with my old eldest where both
like we sat on the couch the other day and
how to chat because you don't know how to parent,
like every kid's different, and I haven't had a thirteen
year old. So Sam and I were like, how do
we you know, something cropped up with school and we're like,
how do we deal with this because we do give
him a lot of freedom and and I'm like that's
(10:59):
not working, so now we're going to have to try
something else. And it was an actual discussion of how
far do we push the boundary for him. It's interesting
when you're a bit lost as a parent, like what
do we do here? Instead of my normal just responding
and then making, you know, a mistake, It was like
a parent discussion of how do we handle this?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Because it's pressure, it's the biggest job, it's the most important.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Oh my god, totally.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
So speaking of parenting, have you heard of this breast
milk ice cream?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
What?
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Look? I think it's a US company. It's called Freeda
and they have come out with this breast milk ice
cream made from cream, honey, and nutrient rich bovine colostrum.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
So that's from a cow colostrum.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
We know colostrum is good for you. Yeah, when I
guess it's human to human yeah, I mean is it
a big mickey?
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Probably?
Speaker 2 (12:01):
But I was thinking to myself, in what circumstance would
you buy it? Like you would assume it's a very
curiosity driven thing. And their marketing is so good, like
they're tagline on the back of because I think they
serve it in shops too. It's the back of the
shirt says just like mum used to make.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Oh my god, no, which is brilliant. Right, So is
it a high I would think it's a high iron
ice cream. That's the point of it. I have Bovinge
liver tablets.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Yes, it's the liver, that's the iron means that it's
from a cow.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, I guess the Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Like an other benefits the same as human colostrum. I'd
probably think not because you don't give your kid cow's
milk when they're born, but they can take breast milk, right.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
I wanted to ask you, have you ever tried breast milk?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I never tried my own breast milk. You obviously did.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yes, I did, and so did Mark. It was more
because markets not from my boob. But I was expressing
all the time and I had oh my god, I
was like a cow and it was on the bench
and he was just looking at and he's like, I
wonder what that tastes like. I guess if it's good
enough for her? Do you know how Yama was to
be very sweet, to be sugar eat.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Yeah, it's very calorie dnse.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Yeah, it was like a like not that I would say, hmm,
I could really go a glass of breast milk right now.
But I said, at the time, I'm thinking this could
be really good in coffee.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Oh my god, I just could not put something in
like my mouth that's come out of my body like that.
For me, I don't be giving a tea kid. Yeah,
but I don't care the kid's the kid separate to me.
I don't I would be grossed out putting something in
my body that has come out of my body.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
You know, speaking of things coming out of your body. Yeah,
you send me the most hectic stuff on Instagram, which
I love because it's the stuff that I like as well.
But there's been a few things that have been related
to free bleeding, and I you sent me a video
(14:12):
of a woman painting with her period blood.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I don't know why I keep getting these videos because
you're watching them. But like one popped up and I
was like, she's not painting with her push bloodish and
you could tell that was blood.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
You could tell the way when on that.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Was definitely it was not a lie. No, she was
using paint with it. And then so I'm just like,
and then another lady just sitting on the grass grounding
free bleeding, I'm like, what the fuck, Like, clearly have
no kids or no job just to be able to
sit on the grass and bleed. For five days. But
I'm like, ew.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
The thing that annoys me the painting lady. You're gonna paint.
You're going to hang it up in your house. It's
your own private thing. You want to do it. Fine.
The free bleed eating on the ground in a park,
which is a public space.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Was it a park?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well, it was out in nature. To me it looked
like a park. Maybe I was wrong, but this idea
of it's natural any other circumstance, if I had, say,
a blood nose, I'm not going to lay there and
let the blood go. It's still blood.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
You should not do it. It's not about the period.
But the part that bothers me is it's like, get
a bigger fucking issue than whacking a tampon up your
muot or putting a pad in your pants. Like the
fact the fact of it's like things are going too far.
To me, that's too far. It's like I don't care,
(15:43):
have your hairy armpits, eat your organic shit, do what
you need to do. But free bleeding is too far
for me. It's a bridge too far.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
I agree, I agree, it's a bridge too far, But
even take away the earth, just put a tampon in
or whatever. I'm talking about just the health implications of blood,
Like I don't want to touch anyone's blood.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
No, neither, you know, so why is it a statement?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Now?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Also, how far does free bleeding go? Like? Do you
wear no undies for the whole time?
Speaker 2 (16:15):
No? No, No, I think it's just you let the blood
flow and you don't use a tampon or a pat
or anything.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
You just about your legs outs will you could?
Speaker 2 (16:26):
And you could? Well? I mean, I guess for some
people it's like this no shame thing, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
I eat my fish and chips and see a blood
soaked skirt like, I just don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
And also I mean unsavory. Period blood has a smell
to it different to normal blood.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Do you reckon? I just says that irony smell.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It's metallic. It smells more metallic to me than although
how long has it been since I bled from anywhere else?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Exactly? I reckon? You just have your smell blood in
a while, probably very similar. But it's I know a lady,
and I do think it's a good idea. I have
a good friend who's very affected by her period in
terms of it makes her feel quite Unwow. Her emotions
get really huge, which I know a lot of ours do.
But every month she's like, I have to alter what
(17:17):
I do those few days because doing things like pilates
or making plans with people. She's like, I've really got
to nurture my body more and not I can't do
that stuff during that time of the month, which I
actually think is a really clever thing to do. Yeah,
to go, I'm not like, my body at the moment
(17:39):
is needing more rest and I'm going to listen to
it as opposed to push through like I do every
other day.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Yeah, I mean you should. Yeah, I think you definitely
should do that because it is a big I mean,
I guess it is a big deal. Yeah, especially if
you're someone who suffers with issues around your period, pain,
mental unrest. Of course, you should listen to your body.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
I've got a marina and now I'm nervous to get it.
Che I love it because I just I get the
smallest period that I could just put in a panty
liner for like three days of the month, so it's
a very short and it's fair, and I got it
to see if it would help with my migraines, which
(18:20):
it didn't. But not having a period is so glorious.
Are you scared to get one? Are you?
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
I had one?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I had one? Yeah, after I had Luca. I had
it in for five years.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Yeah, why did you stop?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Because I just didn't want anything that I didn't want it?
And I'm like, it's and I'm not I'm no nature
lover or anything, but like it is plastic in all that.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
I know you can get one in them other ones.
Now I forget what the material is. I don't know
if it works as well though, but it's it's a
more natural material. Like I'm not like, I'm going to
say copper, but it's not copper.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
There is copper, IUDs, yeah, but yeah, I don't know.
And I also now I like to know what my
period's doing.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Yes see, that's the only thing that I don't like
is I don't know, do you know what I mean?
And then when it does come and I get a
little bit, I'm like, oh that's why I felt extra shit.
But I should still time it, but I don't because
it's so light. It's almost like after it's done, I
forget about it as well.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Yeah, well, you know a lot of women have had
really big success with it, and I think especially when
it's being used as contraception, I think it's very good too,
because you know, and for people that have hectic periods.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
I eat that totally.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Imagine the mural you could paint with that.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Imagine the mural you could paint if you had a
heavy period.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
This is so disgusting, but I'm going to say it
because that's what we do here. I find something really
fascinating about when I have my period and I go
to the toilet and I sit down like watching when
the blood runs out. I get quite taken with it,
Like I will sit and look at it and I'm like, wow.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yes, same, I know blood. This is well, you know what,
Apparently your period's only like three teaspoons or something. It's
not much at all.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Because it looks like a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
It looks like a lot. I know this is really gross,
but when you, yeah, you get a clot, and that's
fascinating to me. That is like, I know, whoa look
at this has come out of my body and it's
just because you don't see things like that, so it's fascinating.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
I actually saw a video the other day. I'll try
and find it and linked in the show notes or something,
but it was a woman talking about how period blood
is so different to regular blood, but in a good way,
that there are antibodies in it. There's all this magical
stuff in period blood that they're only just uncovering now.
(21:00):
And I'm like, imagine period bloodhead like an ability to.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Do everything they put it in with the bovine colostrum
in an ice cream strawberry flavor? Can you call it
strawberry swirl? On that note, we're going to get out
