Speaker 1 (00:06):
Lucky Dip TM a favorite. Up the week, we delve
into something with Malamonty.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
How are you months?
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Yeah, great, Malan yourself.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
I'm like that top.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Brown and blue is a great color combination.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Brown and blue is a great color combination. It's got
like for those of you who can't see yet, it's
a brown kind of cardi top with blue light blue buttons.
Wine down it just as Zara, a special just made
by like child hands. I know it's so fucked up.
I tried not to buy from Zara, but I'm sure
(00:41):
everywhere I buy it from's just as hideous.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Yeah, I know that's true. Anyway, Okay, so for today
I thought I would bring you if you're not across it,
there is an Instagram page that you must look at.
It's called Subway takes Right, and it is this guy
that gets on the in I'm assuming it's New York
and people just give them their takes on things. So
(01:05):
it could be an opinion on something like a theory
on something like just but they are so interesting. Often
he'll get celebrities on there. Ethan Hawke did such a
such a good one. He was talking about how you
can't answer the question who is your favorite Beatle? He said,
(01:28):
because the Beatles are an entirety, and he goes through
the concept of ringo star would be the one who
you know, sorts out the party, but then George Harrison
is the one that would stimulate you with the intellectual conversation.
But then John Lennon would bounce off that like it
was just it was perfect, and the host that what's
(01:49):
not a host but the guy who asked the question.
The person makes the statement and then he'll say whether
he agrees or disagrees.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
So, because imagine doing that in Australia, going up to
an Australian and asking that, like Americans such great talent
that you can choose anyone in the street and they'll
give you gold. So does he go up to them
and say, give me a statement or something.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
No. I think it's at a point now where it's
a thing where people are almost pitching it and then
they'll go, okay, we'll have you on. So sitting on
the subway doing it and it's very relaxed, but I'm
sure it's quite produced. Now. It's at a point where
it's like, okay, people are going in they might you know,
say submit, you take your subway. Take and then they'll go,
(02:28):
that's good, let's use that. And it's sometimes it's minor things,
like one of them was a woman talking about you
can tell a lot about a person by the order
in which they wash their body when they get into
the shower. And I was straightway. I said to Mark,
oh my god, what order do you wash your bloody
We both wash the exact same way.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
No way, how do you do it?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Oh my god? First thing I wash is my my volver?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Is it first?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Number one? Then my under arms, my ass, and then
I go over everything else. I don't wash my legs
every time. I know people say this is disgusting, But
I'm like.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
I don't wash under my feet either.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
No, I don't either, but my husband does, my daughter does.
Like you don't wash under your feet, that's disgusting. And
I'm like, but if they're in soapy water in.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
The shell, yeah, I never washed unders, getting them dirty,
Like yeah, I think I go to I think I
go armpits first, and gine and then balm.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
And you know what to. I have such a system
because I don't wash. Oh my god, this is soating,
am I? But like I don't use soap anymore down
there because it's you're not meant to now, So I like,
like a gentle body wash. Yeah, okay, like QV if
anyone wants to know.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Well, apparently QV is so good because my friend who
does all facials and everything like that, I'm like, I
don't have the cash at the moment to do proper
skin care, and also like I want to do you know, oh,
you're needling in everything. I'm like, I'm not in a
position to do that. And she's like, qv QV is
so good.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
And doesn't want to tate your skin. It's gentle. But
I so I washed there like that. But I washed
my underarms and my ass with soap. You jesus wrap
it up. I just use a body wash on everything.
M Well, anyway, So this is what subway takes is.
But I have some and you can be the host
and tell me whether you agree or disagree with myself. Okay, okay, okay,
(04:26):
No partners at work functions like Christmas parties do not
bring your partner, totally agree.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
It changes the whole vibe. You're conscious of your partner
being there. You've got to look after them. It's a
night that you get to let loose with your coworkers.
No why Like we used to have show and tell
dinners when we had a few of us are working together,
and we did one our first Christmas with all the
partners and then we didn't do it again. And how
much better would just the girls dinners?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Oh my god, so much better because there is a
sense of you need to baby sit. You totally leave
them there on their own. It's uncomfortable. So and also
I think there is definitely something in having separateness in
a relationship you have.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
We have it when we go out because it's not
easy for us to leave our kids at night. Sam
and I if we have a go out for dinner together,
it'll be like a five point thirty sitting so we
can come home and do the boys talk about fucking trapping.
Or it'll be like he goes out and hangs out
with his friends and I go out and hang with
my friends. And sometimes I'm like, got to be so
(05:32):
nice to do things together. We do do a lot together,
but going out I actually enjoy unless it's all couples
that are our great mates. I love going out just
to catch up with the girls.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Same And also there is something in the idea of
and a note like a night out doesn't do it,
but like even the thought of taking a separate holiday
not a bit. But even if it's you go away
for a couple of days, yeah, you're going with different
groups of friends. Not to be able to miss someone
is important because you don't get a chance to miss them.
(06:05):
You hold when they're not there totally.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I went away. My dad doesn't live that far and
he's got a really just you know those old school
high rise apartments on the goal of He's got one
of those, like right on the beach, and it's just
light and beautiful, and he was away. So I said
to one of my best girlfriends, let's go there for
the night. And the next morning I said, this has
just been one night away, and it's been so magical
(06:31):
because I actually want to get home to my kids,
and I never feel that because it's the monotony. They're
always fucking around, it's always driving them to this and
that that it gets. The monotony of it is so
exhausting and so boring that sometimes just getting away for
one night is a total cup filler.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Everyone needs a circle breaker.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
This is it need it need so badly, like even
and you never admit it, but it can get really
boring in just doing the same stuff in your family.
And because my health is quite bad and when it
goes bad, it goes bad for long stints. All I
crave is the normality of doing you know, the kids lunches,
of doing the pickups. I'm like, I just wish I
(07:15):
could do that. Then I get into a state, like
a pattern where I'm good and I'm like, fuck, this
is so boring.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
I believe that is where you need to inject novelty
into or change things up in some way, because, as
we've said before, long term relationships can get very fucking
boring very quickly. Yes, right, so if you want to
keep it together, there needs to be some sort of
I also find.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Like date nights. I don't know, I said to Sam,
I feel like we should even just go for a walk.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
There's too much pressure.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I don't mind, like I don't find it pressure, but
I also I'm like, it's just kind of the same
shit of going out, sitting down and having dinner like
lovely to get somebody to come and serve you and
staff and to catch up without being interrupted by kids.
But it's also a bit mundane, like I don't know,
Like I just even said, Sam, we should just make
(08:11):
an effort at like six point thirty before the kids
go to dinner, whatever kids want to come, we just
go for a walk. I know that sounds basic, but
when you're kind of so structured and it's like, oh,
it's six thirty kids in the shower. Because mine is
still young, we still follow quite a routine. I'm like,
just even mixing it up like that, or I don't know,
just the smallest, most basic things that is just a
(08:34):
slight switch from your normal routine.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
This is the biggest bonu killer of this time of life,
especially when you when you have kids and responsibilities and stuff.
There is no spontaneity.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
None. There is none in our life, like literally none.
Yeah jeez, I do miss that spontaneity, or like like.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Just going hey, let's do Hey, you know, what do
you want to go to wherever this weekend? Or yeah
no plan, just yep, oh my god, yeah let's go.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Or even just last minute going out for dinner. That's
when it's lovely, when it's like you just go down
like we used to just go to this restaurant in
Saint Kilt all the time before we had kids called
clay Pots. It was this seafood restaurant. We'd be like
Claypots tonight. Just the freedom walking out the house without
forward planning, a babysitter a week in advance, booking the table,
(09:22):
the day coming, and you're going. There's not one part
of me that can be bothered going like the plannedness
of stuff. That's why always the last minute things are
so much fun. Like when you go over to somebody's
house and then it rolls into a barbecue for dinner
or something like that.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
They're the greatest. Often when you're dreading it, you can't
be fucked. Yeah, then you go and you're there and
you're like, oh my god, that was the best.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
That was the best. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Okay, all right, gee I really took up a lot
of time there. Sorry, Okay. People need to stop doing
shit to their teeth, and by doing shit, I mean
getting those massive caps on their team, those comical I saw.
I think it was I know we shouldn't talk about
people's appearance, but I think it was Demi Moore, who
(10:08):
looks incredible.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
She looks incredible, she had teeth. I'm like, I.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Like teeth that are a bit fucked up. I know
you do like scars. I'm like, and when I say
a bit fucked up, I'm not talking about like you
know you've got seven teeth missing. No, but like I
love I think Lizo's got them. I've said this before,
almost like you know when people have almost like their
canine sit forward a little bit more, or like this
(10:35):
this perfectionist thing that it's like it's like everybody's starting
to look the same. I find that very unattractive. If
your teeth are a little bit wonky or whatever, it
looks better. I think it looks better than like a
comic strip and get some big for their face.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
They do get them too big, and they also get
them to like a shade or two too wide, where
I am desperate for visa line. I really want my
teeth straight up.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
And then I told you your teeth looks so straight
to me.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
On this say look so straight. They're not.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
They're all very white today too.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's because I've got fake tan. Whenever I wear fag
tan and my two front ones are capped, so otis
is always like your two front ones are white, the
rest are yellow. You're so right and I've still got that.
You know how I ordered online where you have to
get approval from a dentist online to get the whiteing,
the one you never do it. You do have to
still underneath tie. Yeah, and you got to do it
(11:34):
for like ten nights straight, no coffee and stuff. I
paid for it and it's literally sitting next to my bed.
I'm just I can't. I don't even have the motivation
to do that.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, I get it, I get it. Should I cut
this and we can do another one another time? Or
what do you think?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Yeah? Maybe do one more and then let's finish off.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Okay, all right. I think that in order to get
your license, part of the test should be that you
know how to change a tire, because I don't know
how to change a tire. I don't even know. I
don't even know how to put air in my tires.
I've done that before.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Now because there's a certain number they need to go
to and I don't know what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yes, I feel like when I think of my kids,
like my daughter can get her license next year, so wild,
and I am like I want that she's capable to
be able to change a tire because there's something about
a vulnerability and not being able to do those things.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yeah, see, I just there is Yeah, n RM, come
and change my tire.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
That's that's another thing too. I reckon part of your
Redgo or built into your insurance or whatever it may be,
is that you get like two or three callouts per year.
They don't roll over. But if you need that roadside
assistance is there. It is, though if you need not
built into your red Joe, you have to have a sorry,
(12:56):
not your REGO yet it's built into or whatever. Because
it's a very like privileged thing that I know. If
I if my car broke down on the side of
the road, I've got one hundred people I could call
to come and help me. Everybody has that.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
No, it would be it would be pretty hot. You
don't often you never really often see anyone change a
tire now, but if you did, just see this hot
chick on the side of the road, just fucking hoisting
up her card and change her tire. But I also
think that they should have to do to do license,
not just a written test and then somebody like saying, yeah,
(13:32):
we've marked off you know, two hundred hours in a
book that you can just write I feel like there
should be more intensive tests. They do that in Germany
because there's the Auto Barn and stuff like that. And
my sister is just over there and she's like, there's
such better drivers than us because they go through so
much more intense, you know, ridmarole to get their licenses.
And I'm like, it's pretty full on, Like a seventeen
(13:53):
or eighteen year old can just go and do that
written test and you know, dodge our and then be
on the fucking road.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
How loose was it for us? It was so just
I should not have been driving got my license me
neither absolutely should not have been on the roads.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
No, but I feel like none of us relationship. I
so vividly remember driving my car for one of the
first times, and one of the main is just bunny
hopping across the whole of me. It was so embarrassing.
And the first car that stopped to let me bunny
hop across was this older, cool guy that I knew,
(14:32):
and I was mortified because also I had a manual,
when none of the kids will learn anymore. Yeah, I'm
going to ask you that.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
The other day, I thought, I wonder if you can
drive a manual. I miss driving a.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Manual, manual so much fun. And my our babysitter sometimes
we swap cars because the baby seats in my car,
so we swap cars all the time. And she's got
an old school the Tara, and it's manual, so much
fun to drive. Yeah, I agree, agreeing. All right, well
let's I like this. Let's come back and do it
(15:04):
