Speaker 1 (00:07):
Show and Tell friends, it's maur It's Monty. Thanks for
listening today. Hooray, hooray, hooray everybody. Hi everyone, Hi, Amon's
yeah good, I'm going good. If you're new to the pod,
thank you for listening in. If you're an oldie, thanks
for listening in. We were just saying we just want
to preface that we know how fucked the world is
(00:28):
at the moment. It's so fucked, and we had a
big talk before this that we've got to bring ourselves
back up. But this is not the pod you come
for heavy news like this is your twenty minutes of
a break from reality.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Yes, we just want to keep it light because yeah,
you know, yeah, we're all exposed to enough.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah, I feel like sometimes it's so fucked and we
don't acknowledge what's going on. We're very aware, we know
you are too, but this ain't the place to come. Yeah,
but don't kind of stuff. You're not getting any actual
facts from us. Although speaking of facts, oh yes, we
start every part with a fact. What do you got today?
We do?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Okay, did you know no that before mating, male giraffes
head butt the females in the bladder until they we
and then they taste it to see if she's ovulating. Wow,
isn't that amazing?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
That's phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I mean, giraffe giraffe nature.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
It is wild. It's so fucked and fabulous. It's like,
imagine we did that as humans, Like Sam just constantly
knocking on my bladder till I piss on him and
then he's like, yep, you're ovulating. Let's bone.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
And also how they're so evolved to be able to
know that, like to think you can taste when someone's ovulating, Like, yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I don't think that's evolved. I think that's literally programmed nature.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Did I say evolved?
Speaker 1 (01:53):
You said evolved. I don't think giraffes evolved.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I don't think my medication is woking from today.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Oh that's so fun cutting that bit out. No, you
are not that his hands down staying in. Oh god,
So do you see if her R and b Friday's
Mariah Carey's coming out?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I think Mary Carey's my new hero. What I feel
like I need to play.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
There's a here. I can't watch her clips because they're
just going absolutely bonkers at the moment of her on
stage doing duets with different people. She can barely even stand,
like she's severely medicated.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You know what I think it is with her too,
It's almost like she she doesn't move her face.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
No, there's no express there's no movement.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I think that's probably because to me, I look at
her and I'm like, she does look clock, she had
a heep of work done.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
She's maintained. Yeah, sure she has. Though I think that's
an active thing. A lot of people do. They try
not to move their face as much, oh, one hundred percent.
The first time I got botox, the lady's like, you
need to try and train yourself not to move your forehead.
I do it that all the time. I never raise
my eyebrows or anything. Shit, Yeah, that's amazing, fucking sick,
(03:05):
isn't it. But it's like just second nature now. I
would never raise my eyebrows.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Well I saw this clip of her on Instagram the
other day. Also, it's like she can't sing anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
She can't sing anymore. It's like they.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Get to a point artists. I guess there's a quota
of how many songs you can sing well, because it's
like they lose their I guess their vocal chords get.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Frosted total and everything in there is aged. It's like
hearing Rod Stewart sing now. It makes me uncomfortable. I'm like, enough,
hang up the singing boots or singing the shower.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It's like the bon Jovi clip. Remember when he was
at that wedding. No, oh my god. Bon Jovi was
a guest at a wedding and the band started playing
Living on a Prayer. Yeah, and they called him up
to sing, and he sang.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
And you know that song.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Would be actually quite hard to sing, like, it's pretty high. Yeah,
it's so uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's the worst thing.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I'll send it to you, Okay, the worst anyway. So
she's I think it was a week or two ago
she did this interview. She said she doesn't acknowledge time.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
We have listened to this. Is it true?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
You don't acknowledge the passid of time? That is true?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
What do you mean by that? I just don't believe
in it. What do you mean time.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Zones or no?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
No, just time, just time times and no clocks.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, no, just not into that.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, let it go. Do you celebrate a birthday?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I don't have a birthday.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
No, anniversaries.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Anniversaries, yes, okay, great, but no birthdays.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
If we were to meet up later, how would we
know when? It would just it would just happened on
Mariah's time. Yeah, I would have somebody call you and
figure it out. Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I mean obviously she's privileged, Like you want to meet
up with someone, she.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Literally would have somebody bringing a breakfast, her lunch, her dinner,
saying tomorrow's your daughter's birthday. I've got all these presents
for you. Like, she doesn't have to think about anything
for herself.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
No, and she's you know, she's obviously not living in
the same reality as us. God no, but the concept
of it, I sort of think is pretty genius, like
and not as in looking at the time on a clock,
even she would have to do that.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
But the you know, we get so wrapped.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Up in our age and whatever. If you just paid
no attention to that at all, Yeah, there was no
concept of time in that way. Yeah, it's actually quite smart, Like.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
If you just let it go and you just said
to yourself, you.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Know what, I'm not even acknowledging that, I'm.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Just gonna go by how I feel or whatever. I guess. Also,
when you're hungry just going and then bedtime like it
would change, don't Because I see the time. I see
eight o'clock, which is your morning. But for me, I'm
like eight pm. I'm like, shit, I gotta start getting
ready for bed. Where if I didn't know that, I
wonder how much freedom I would have, what time I
(05:57):
would actually end up going to bed. That a control
freak would be my worst nightmare. See again, she doesn't
have to pick up the kids from school, she doesn't
have to get them to school, she doesn't have to
take to the dentist. It's like life has times and appointments.
She wouldn't have a friend in the world that she's
meeting up with.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Either unless they're on the payroll, and then she don't
worry about that today. And that's probably why she's I mean,
imagine living with somebody like that, having a relationship with
someone like that. It's like Elvis, though, I guess when
you're at that level, you lose touch with reality. Like
he had no windows I think in his bedroom, so
there was absolutely no light. He would like he I
(06:36):
think even he lost his sense of timing and stuff.
Because it's also something about being isolated.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yes, of course it would be such a hideous existence.
So my mom was an event organizer yet I've told
this many many years ago, but she was working, like
organizing a conference at a big hotel in Melbourne, and
the woman who was giving her like a tour are saying,
this is where everything is showed her the penthouse. I
(07:03):
think it was Crown or something like that, and this
big beautiful penthouse. John Travolta stayed there when he was
in Australia, and he demanded every single window be completely
blacked out.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
I guess. I mean that's probably a privacy thing too.
Like imagine paparazzi with those lenses.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
That you wouldn't be able to see in the windows
of Crown Casino.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
They'd be so mirroredn I think those lenses are pretty good.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
God, I would like that is so wild. Imagine the
requests that different celebrities have and in a penthouse the
whole thing's windows so literally all blacked out. And yeah,
so why are you up there?
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Then?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, just get it, get down on the third field, dungeon,
mate it exactly. It doesn't matter what the commoners. Yeah,
I know how you knew.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Speaking of that, A really quick hack I saw once,
you know, like when you go on holidays with kids
and like how you want to get to bed and
they're sensitive with the light and all that sort of
stuff if the curtains aren't good in the place you're staying.
Saw a hack once of a woman using a spray
bottle on the window and she put foil. Oh yeah, window, yes,
everything out. I was I wish I'd known that when
(08:14):
my kids were little.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah, foil is a good idea. When Baxter's room was
quite light when he was younger, I put black cardboard
on their windows to block it out. But we got
new curtains a little while ago, and they haven't made
them wide enough, so I have a gap of light
in between where the curtains touch. And it's one of
(08:35):
those things that bothers me every time I close them.
And I napped during the day, so I close them
during the day and at night I close them, so
two times a day. I am really cross. Yeah, I
get it. It's such a head fuck, the little things,
isn't it so funny? The little things just drive you
absolutely mad. And it's also annoying when I'm like, that
was a couple of grand or whatever you know, however
(08:57):
much it was. I'm like, it's so annoying. I'm never
going to replay that, but it bothers me severely. I
wonder if Mariah has got the same problem. Oh myg
too funny.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Have you heard of this lady in Japan who's had
this premonition about this tsunami? No, it's coming, Okay, So
there is this lady. She's a manga artist. Didn't know
what that was? Yecked it up.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yes, my son was obsessed with manga.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Really comic? Is it sort of like comic?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Yes, but it's also you read it from the back
cover to the front. That would do my heading me too.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Anyway. Her name's Ryo Tatsuki obviously not pronouncing that great,
and she's been having these visions in her dream since
the eighties. She's seventy years old now, and back in
nineteen ninety nine she wrote a book called The Future
I Saw, and there were things that she predicted in
that that have come true. But the main thing was
the massive tsunami in Japan in twenty eleven that killed
(09:55):
like eighteen thousand people. She's predicted this huge tsunami is
going to hit Japan. Sit On July fifth this year.
But it's going to also impact other surrounding countries, so Taiwan,
the Philippines, Indonesia anyway, as a result, there's been a
massive decline in tourism over that period of time. People
(10:18):
are canceling flights and all this stuff, which is obviously
impacting those countries. Yes, I kind of wanted to ask
you was if you had a trip booked to Japan, Yeah,
and then you see that, would you cancel your trip?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
All depends how much money I would lose? Nah? I
think I think I probably would. Yeah. I also am
thinking if somebody predicted something here, would I get out
of the country during that time? If somebody's been so
spot on with their predictions, SAM would go, that's horseshit,
there's no way where I would. Probably, Yeah, I would probably.
(10:57):
I don't know if I act. I don't think i'd
actively take the true but I don't think I would
leave our country if it was predicted. You're fucked. You
are fucked if something happens to Australia, like if there's
a prediction like that, because you won't get on a plane,
you can't drive to another country.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
No you No, I just go, okay, well I'm going
to die. I actually read a very unsettling fact the
other day, but it was comforting to me in some way.
If you were close enough to some nuclear warfare or whatever,
that the heat would be so intense at that moment
that it wouldn't even give your nerves time to register
(11:34):
the pain.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
And I'm like, you die that quickly? All right, I'm
happy with that. Yeah, if you take me that way, smart,
But I mean it would be you'd be like, the
lead up would be completely terrifying.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
So yeah, you'd be you'd be so scared. Although is
that different to any other death?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
So what would you do? Would you cancel?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah? I mean it's hard. I wouldn't be going in.
I know, yeah, because it's fascinating things like that. It's
a little more accurate than the octopus that they used
to use to predict who was gonna win. Was it
soccer games or something? Remember that, Yes, was it the
Olympic Games or something. They used this octopus and whatever
it would crawl to. It had a good success rate.
(12:16):
But I mean, I wouldn't change my life depending on that.
But if a lady has predicted several things and predicted
the tsunami and the exact actual date. There's something like
I have had. I had two friends that were in
Thailand when that happened. One of my best friends was
over there and was waiting for her then fiance to arrive,
(12:39):
and she just the story is just so fucking full on.
But then my other friend was Trish Broadbridge at the time,
and her husband was a Melbourne footballer and he ended
up getting killed, and yeah, it's just it was the moment,
it was the most fucked time. Remember it.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
You interviewed Trish as well. I try to tell yeah,
I just always remember this is stuck with me. She
was talking about when the wave was coming, how she
was just standing there and they were just looking at
it and it was so surreal that she said that
her thought was, Oh, my camera's going to get wet,
that's right, And I thought it would be such a
(13:21):
surreal is the only way you could describe it. That
you just completely, like so confused by what you're seeing
totally that your brain can't compute. No, it's cleaning because
it's so nothing you've ever seen before. My son watched
Baxter watch the movie the other day. Of the tsunami.
I forget what it was called with Naomi, Yes, yeah, yeah,
(13:43):
and he was intrigued. He's like, can we please talk
to Kerry about her experience? But just remembering that sucking
out of the water and then the giant wave, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
There's so many things to be scared of. Oh my god,
terrified when you think about it. Yeah, really, we programmed
to think about it. If we knew really how fragile
life was, the odds of us something happening every time
we even leave the house, we wouldn't do a thing.
It's funny, you know.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Like I've said before, I'm terrified of flying, which I
actually don't think is irrational. I really don't think it's
an irrational fear. Okay, the probability of dying in a
plane crash is very low, but when you look at
what a plane actually is, it's fucking scary.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah. All that fuel in the air, all of it.
I'm like, oh my god, how is this even possible?
Flying through the air?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Do you know? The last time I flew, which was
my fortieth, I started to try and watch all these
fear of flying things to try and get myself ready
for it on YouTube. You know, I can't even explain
to you. A lot of it was trying to desensitize yourself.
So you know the sound of being in the cabin,
the sounds that the plane makes, the taking off, you know,
(14:57):
it would almost send me into a panic, scrunching to it.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah, you get hypnotized. Nah, you don't want.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
To No, Well, I've done hypnosis for other things before
and it hasn't really worked.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
I think it's just so in me, it's ingrained in you. Yeah,
and I don't seem to bother you. See. For me,
if I was to never get on a plane again,
I would feel so claustrophobic. Yeah, Like if I thought
I can't even get to Melbourne without doing a two
day trip. I just see that is the opposite to
you in terms of I would go, oh my god,
(15:31):
I can't breathe if I can't get anywhere. And the
thought of never going on a holiday outside of three
hours away.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Oh, and this is the funny thing, right, if I
had to fly somewhere on my own, Yeah, I feel
like I could deal with it better than if I
was with my family, because I'm scared of having to
I don't want to see that happening.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
You don't want to see the panic in their eyes.
I don't want to see that. Prefer to all go
down together.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
That's what Mark said. I'm like, what, you'd prefer the
kids die as well? And he goes, well, how are
they going to cope without us? And I said, they'll
go on.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, but they'll be pretty fucked up. It's like the
Royal family never travel on the same flight. I mean,
there you go, there you go, You're onto something. So
the other week we were talking about near death experiences. Yes, right,
and because there was a lot of people I think
was it a podcast or a show you were watching
(16:27):
where people were talking about their near death experiences Oprah podcasts,
Oprah podcasts, and just how beautiful and how just encompassed
with love they were when they died and were brought
back to life. Anyway, we've got quite a few messages
from you guys, but there's one I want to read
out and this is from Chloe. Okay, because I said,
(16:50):
have any of you experienced a near death experience? On
social media? And Chloe wrote me back in my early
twenties quite a while ago. Now, I had a blown
anaphylactic reaction to penicillin. It started out relatively mild. I
don't even remember calling Mum, but the next thing I
knew she was there, having walked in to find me
(17:10):
unconscious on the floor. The strangest part, I clearly remember
watching the whole scene unfold from above the TV in
my living room. I can still see Mum's face when
she saw me. She was shocked and panicked, and I
was above at all, watching, desperately trying to will myself
to wake up, to let it know I was okay,
to somehow calm her. It was surreal. I blacked out
(17:33):
again in the ambulance and once more found myself watching
everything from the ceiling. Earlier, when the hives had spread,
everything was swelling and my vision blurred. I had this
overwhelming sensation, A strange calmness came over me. It felt
exactly like being at the beach, as if I was
laying back letting the waves wash over me, peaceful, dream
(17:53):
like until there was nothing. Then came the adrenaline, just
like you see in the movies. The moment it hit,
jolted upright instantly awake, as if someone had flipped a switch.
I could feel it rushed through my veins like liquid lightning,
snapping me back into my body. It was wild, overwhelming
and absolutely unforgettable. Later Mum confirmed everything I'd explained, the
(18:15):
positioning upon my body.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Everything, Oh my god, yes, sending that in Chloe, I know.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
It's amazing, isn't it beautifully written to like lightning going
through my veins? But I like it when you hear
actual people like this is Chloe a beautiful listener writing
in saying this happened to me.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
I wonder if Chloe feels like people minimize that experience, like, oh,
you must have just been out of it, or as
in you must have just hallucinated in that state or whatever,
like people trying to rationalize.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Of course, it's the same with everything. It's like my
friend the other day her grandma died, Yeah, and she
was like, the weirdest thing happened, And I almost played
it down, but I'm like, to her, it was something
and it was a real sign from her grandma. But
her grandma gave her her wedding rings. So Abby's wedding
rings are her NaN's wedding rings. And the other day
(19:10):
she passed and she they're very tight on Abby's fingers,
they've never come off. And the other day Abby was
getting ready for her funeral and she was in the
bathroom brushed her hair once and the wedding ring flew off. Yeah,
and she's like it was a sign. It was a
sign from Emmy. And I was like, the fact that
they'd never fallen off your fingers and then it did
(19:31):
on the day of her funeral, Like, that's a sign. Yeah,
that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
And also like, I think if you see it as
a sign, that's enough.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Well, that's the thing. That's what I was like. I
was like, that's amazing. Because it didn't happen to me.
I couldn't get the full sensation of that. But if
it happened to me on the day of my NaN's funeral,
I'd be like, of course, that was a sign from Nan.
Oh that's nice. Yeah, it is nice.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
That's really nice.
Speaker 1 (19:55):

yeah good, I'm going good. If you're new to the pod,
thank you for listening in. If you're an oldie, thanks
for listening in. We were just saying we just want
to preface that we know how fucked the world is
(00:28):
at the moment. It's so fucked, and we had a
big talk before this that we've got to bring ourselves
back up. But this is not the pod you come
for heavy news like this is your twenty minutes of
a break from reality.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Yes, we just want to keep it light because yeah,
you know, yeah, we're all exposed to enough.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah, I feel like sometimes it's so fucked and we
don't acknowledge what's going on. We're very aware, we know
you are too, but this ain't the place to come. Yeah,
but don't kind of stuff. You're not getting any actual
facts from us. Although speaking of facts, oh yes, we
start every part with a fact. What do you got today?
We do?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Okay, did you know no that before mating, male giraffes
head butt the females in the bladder until they we
and then they taste it to see if she's ovulating. Wow,
isn't that amazing?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
That's phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I mean, giraffe giraffe nature.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
It is wild. It's so fucked and fabulous. It's like,
imagine we did that as humans, Like Sam just constantly
knocking on my bladder till I piss on him and
then he's like, yep, you're ovulating. Let's bone.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
And also how they're so evolved to be able to
know that, like to think you can taste when someone's ovulating, Like, yeah, well.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I don't think that's evolved. I think that's literally programmed nature.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Did I say evolved?
Speaker 1 (01:53):
You said evolved. I don't think giraffes evolved.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I don't think my medication is woking from today.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Oh that's so fun cutting that bit out. No, you
are not that his hands down staying in. Oh god,
So do you see if her R and b Friday's
Mariah Carey's coming out?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I think Mary Carey's my new hero. What I feel
like I need to play.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
There's a here. I can't watch her clips because they're
just going absolutely bonkers at the moment of her on
stage doing duets with different people. She can barely even stand,
like she's severely medicated.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You know what I think it is with her too,
It's almost like she she doesn't move her face.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
No, there's no express there's no movement.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I think that's probably because to me, I look at
her and I'm like, she does look clock, she had
a heep of work done.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
She's maintained. Yeah, sure she has. Though I think that's
an active thing. A lot of people do. They try
not to move their face as much, oh, one hundred percent.
The first time I got botox, the lady's like, you
need to try and train yourself not to move your forehead.
I do it that all the time. I never raise
my eyebrows or anything. Shit, Yeah, that's amazing, fucking sick,
(03:05):
isn't it. But it's like just second nature now. I
would never raise my eyebrows.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Well I saw this clip of her on Instagram the
other day. Also, it's like she can't sing anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
She can't sing anymore. It's like they.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Get to a point artists. I guess there's a quota
of how many songs you can sing well, because it's
like they lose their I guess their vocal chords get.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Frosted total and everything in there is aged. It's like
hearing Rod Stewart sing now. It makes me uncomfortable. I'm like, enough,
hang up the singing boots or singing the shower.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It's like the bon Jovi clip. Remember when he was
at that wedding. No, oh my god. Bon Jovi was
a guest at a wedding and the band started playing
Living on a Prayer. Yeah, and they called him up
to sing, and he sang.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
And you know that song.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Would be actually quite hard to sing, like, it's pretty high. Yeah,
it's so uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's the worst thing.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I'll send it to you, Okay, the worst anyway. So
she's I think it was a week or two ago
she did this interview. She said she doesn't acknowledge time.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
We have listened to this. Is it true?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
You don't acknowledge the passid of time? That is true?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
What do you mean by that? I just don't believe
in it. What do you mean time.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Zones or no?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
No, just time, just time times and no clocks.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, no, just not into that.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, let it go. Do you celebrate a birthday?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I don't have a birthday.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
No, anniversaries.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Anniversaries, yes, okay, great, but no birthdays.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
If we were to meet up later, how would we
know when? It would just it would just happened on
Mariah's time. Yeah, I would have somebody call you and
figure it out. Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I mean obviously she's privileged, Like you want to meet
up with someone, she.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Literally would have somebody bringing a breakfast, her lunch, her dinner,
saying tomorrow's your daughter's birthday. I've got all these presents
for you. Like, she doesn't have to think about anything
for herself.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
No, and she's you know, she's obviously not living in
the same reality as us. God no, but the concept
of it, I sort of think is pretty genius, like
and not as in looking at the time on a clock,
even she would have to do that.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
But the you know, we get so wrapped.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Up in our age and whatever. If you just paid
no attention to that at all, Yeah, there was no
concept of time in that way. Yeah, it's actually quite smart, Like.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
If you just let it go and you just said
to yourself, you.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Know what, I'm not even acknowledging that, I'm.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Just gonna go by how I feel or whatever. I guess. Also,
when you're hungry just going and then bedtime like it
would change, don't Because I see the time. I see
eight o'clock, which is your morning. But for me, I'm
like eight pm. I'm like, shit, I gotta start getting
ready for bed. Where if I didn't know that, I
wonder how much freedom I would have, what time I
(05:57):
would actually end up going to bed. That a control
freak would be my worst nightmare. See again, she doesn't
have to pick up the kids from school, she doesn't
have to get them to school, she doesn't have to
take to the dentist. It's like life has times and appointments.
She wouldn't have a friend in the world that she's
meeting up with.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Either unless they're on the payroll, and then she don't
worry about that today. And that's probably why she's I mean,
imagine living with somebody like that, having a relationship with
someone like that. It's like Elvis, though, I guess when
you're at that level, you lose touch with reality. Like
he had no windows I think in his bedroom, so
there was absolutely no light. He would like he I
(06:36):
think even he lost his sense of timing and stuff.
Because it's also something about being isolated.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yes, of course it would be such a hideous existence.
So my mom was an event organizer yet I've told
this many many years ago, but she was working, like
organizing a conference at a big hotel in Melbourne, and
the woman who was giving her like a tour are saying,
this is where everything is showed her the penthouse. I
(07:03):
think it was Crown or something like that, and this
big beautiful penthouse. John Travolta stayed there when he was
in Australia, and he demanded every single window be completely
blacked out.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
I guess. I mean that's probably a privacy thing too.
Like imagine paparazzi with those lenses.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
That you wouldn't be able to see in the windows
of Crown Casino.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
They'd be so mirroredn I think those lenses are pretty good.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
God, I would like that is so wild. Imagine the
requests that different celebrities have and in a penthouse the
whole thing's windows so literally all blacked out. And yeah,
so why are you up there?
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Then?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, just get it, get down on the third field, dungeon,
mate it exactly. It doesn't matter what the commoners. Yeah,
I know how you knew.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Speaking of that, A really quick hack I saw once,
you know, like when you go on holidays with kids
and like how you want to get to bed and
they're sensitive with the light and all that sort of
stuff if the curtains aren't good in the place you're staying.
Saw a hack once of a woman using a spray
bottle on the window and she put foil. Oh yeah, window, yes,
everything out. I was I wish I'd known that when
(08:14):
my kids were little.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Yeah, foil is a good idea. When Baxter's room was
quite light when he was younger, I put black cardboard
on their windows to block it out. But we got
new curtains a little while ago, and they haven't made
them wide enough, so I have a gap of light
in between where the curtains touch. And it's one of
(08:35):
those things that bothers me every time I close them.
And I napped during the day, so I close them
during the day and at night I close them, so
two times a day. I am really cross. Yeah, I
get it. It's such a head fuck, the little things,
isn't it so funny? The little things just drive you
absolutely mad. And it's also annoying when I'm like, that
was a couple of grand or whatever you know, however
(08:57):
much it was. I'm like, it's so annoying. I'm never
going to replay that, but it bothers me severely. I
wonder if Mariah has got the same problem. Oh myg
too funny.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Have you heard of this lady in Japan who's had
this premonition about this tsunami? No, it's coming, Okay, So
there is this lady. She's a manga artist. Didn't know
what that was? Yecked it up.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yes, my son was obsessed with manga.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Really comic? Is it sort of like comic?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Yes, but it's also you read it from the back
cover to the front. That would do my heading me too.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Anyway. Her name's Ryo Tatsuki obviously not pronouncing that great,
and she's been having these visions in her dream since
the eighties. She's seventy years old now, and back in
nineteen ninety nine she wrote a book called The Future
I Saw, and there were things that she predicted in
that that have come true. But the main thing was
the massive tsunami in Japan in twenty eleven that killed
(09:55):
like eighteen thousand people. She's predicted this huge tsunami is
going to hit Japan. Sit On July fifth this year.
But it's going to also impact other surrounding countries, so Taiwan,
the Philippines, Indonesia anyway, as a result, there's been a
massive decline in tourism over that period of time. People
(10:18):
are canceling flights and all this stuff, which is obviously
impacting those countries. Yes, I kind of wanted to ask
you was if you had a trip booked to Japan, Yeah,
and then you see that, would you cancel your trip?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
All depends how much money I would lose? Nah? I
think I think I probably would. Yeah. I also am
thinking if somebody predicted something here, would I get out
of the country during that time? If somebody's been so
spot on with their predictions, SAM would go, that's horseshit,
there's no way where I would. Probably, Yeah, I would probably.
(10:57):
I don't know if I act. I don't think i'd
actively take the true but I don't think I would
leave our country if it was predicted. You're fucked. You
are fucked if something happens to Australia, like if there's
a prediction like that, because you won't get on a plane,
you can't drive to another country.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
No you No, I just go, okay, well I'm going
to die. I actually read a very unsettling fact the
other day, but it was comforting to me in some way.
If you were close enough to some nuclear warfare or whatever,
that the heat would be so intense at that moment
that it wouldn't even give your nerves time to register
(11:34):
the pain.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
And I'm like, you die that quickly? All right, I'm
happy with that. Yeah, if you take me that way, smart,
But I mean it would be you'd be like, the
lead up would be completely terrifying.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
So yeah, you'd be you'd be so scared. Although is
that different to any other death?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
So what would you do? Would you cancel?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Yeah? I mean it's hard. I wouldn't be going in.
I know, yeah, because it's fascinating things like that. It's
a little more accurate than the octopus that they used
to use to predict who was gonna win. Was it
soccer games or something? Remember that, Yes, was it the
Olympic Games or something. They used this octopus and whatever
it would crawl to. It had a good success rate.
(12:16):
But I mean, I wouldn't change my life depending on that.
But if a lady has predicted several things and predicted
the tsunami and the exact actual date. There's something like
I have had. I had two friends that were in
Thailand when that happened. One of my best friends was
over there and was waiting for her then fiance to arrive,
(12:39):
and she just the story is just so fucking full on.
But then my other friend was Trish Broadbridge at the time,
and her husband was a Melbourne footballer and he ended
up getting killed, and yeah, it's just it was the moment,
it was the most fucked time. Remember it.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
You interviewed Trish as well. I try to tell yeah,
I just always remember this is stuck with me. She
was talking about when the wave was coming, how she
was just standing there and they were just looking at
it and it was so surreal that she said that
her thought was, Oh, my camera's going to get wet,
that's right, And I thought it would be such a
(13:21):
surreal is the only way you could describe it. That
you just completely, like so confused by what you're seeing
totally that your brain can't compute. No, it's cleaning because
it's so nothing you've ever seen before. My son watched
Baxter watch the movie the other day. Of the tsunami.
I forget what it was called with Naomi, Yes, yeah, yeah,
(13:43):
and he was intrigued. He's like, can we please talk
to Kerry about her experience? But just remembering that sucking
out of the water and then the giant wave, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
There's so many things to be scared of. Oh my god,
terrified when you think about it. Yeah, really, we programmed
to think about it. If we knew really how fragile
life was, the odds of us something happening every time
we even leave the house, we wouldn't do a thing.
It's funny, you know.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Like I've said before, I'm terrified of flying, which I
actually don't think is irrational. I really don't think it's
an irrational fear. Okay, the probability of dying in a
plane crash is very low, but when you look at
what a plane actually is, it's fucking scary.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah. All that fuel in the air, all of it.
I'm like, oh my god, how is this even possible?
Flying through the air?
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Do you know? The last time I flew, which was
my fortieth, I started to try and watch all these
fear of flying things to try and get myself ready
for it on YouTube. You know, I can't even explain
to you. A lot of it was trying to desensitize yourself.
So you know the sound of being in the cabin,
the sounds that the plane makes, the taking off, you know,
(14:57):
it would almost send me into a panic, scrunching to it.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah, you get hypnotized. Nah, you don't want.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
To No, Well, I've done hypnosis for other things before
and it hasn't really worked.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
I think it's just so in me, it's ingrained in you. Yeah,
and I don't seem to bother you. See. For me,
if I was to never get on a plane again,
I would feel so claustrophobic. Yeah, Like if I thought
I can't even get to Melbourne without doing a two
day trip. I just see that is the opposite to
you in terms of I would go, oh my god,
(15:31):
I can't breathe if I can't get anywhere. And the
thought of never going on a holiday outside of three
hours away.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Oh, and this is the funny thing, right, if I
had to fly somewhere on my own, Yeah, I feel
like I could deal with it better than if I
was with my family, because I'm scared of having to
I don't want to see that happening.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
You don't want to see the panic in their eyes.
I don't want to see that. Prefer to all go
down together.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
That's what Mark said. I'm like, what, you'd prefer the
kids die as well? And he goes, well, how are
they going to cope without us? And I said, they'll
go on.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, but they'll be pretty fucked up. It's like the
Royal family never travel on the same flight. I mean,
there you go, there you go, You're onto something. So
the other week we were talking about near death experiences. Yes, right,
and because there was a lot of people I think
was it a podcast or a show you were watching
(16:27):
where people were talking about their near death experiences Oprah podcasts,
Oprah podcasts, and just how beautiful and how just encompassed
with love they were when they died and were brought
back to life. Anyway, we've got quite a few messages
from you guys, but there's one I want to read
out and this is from Chloe. Okay, because I said,
(16:50):
have any of you experienced a near death experience? On
social media? And Chloe wrote me back in my early
twenties quite a while ago. Now, I had a blown
anaphylactic reaction to penicillin. It started out relatively mild. I
don't even remember calling Mum, but the next thing I
knew she was there, having walked in to find me
(17:10):
unconscious on the floor. The strangest part, I clearly remember
watching the whole scene unfold from above the TV in
my living room. I can still see Mum's face when
she saw me. She was shocked and panicked, and I
was above at all, watching, desperately trying to will myself
to wake up, to let it know I was okay,
to somehow calm her. It was surreal. I blacked out
(17:33):
again in the ambulance and once more found myself watching
everything from the ceiling. Earlier, when the hives had spread,
everything was swelling and my vision blurred. I had this
overwhelming sensation, A strange calmness came over me. It felt
exactly like being at the beach, as if I was
laying back letting the waves wash over me, peaceful, dream
(17:53):
like until there was nothing. Then came the adrenaline, just
like you see in the movies. The moment it hit,
jolted upright instantly awake, as if someone had flipped a switch.
I could feel it rushed through my veins like liquid lightning,
snapping me back into my body. It was wild, overwhelming
and absolutely unforgettable. Later Mum confirmed everything I'd explained, the
(18:15):
positioning upon my body.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Everything, Oh my god, yes, sending that in Chloe, I know.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
It's amazing, isn't it beautifully written to like lightning going
through my veins? But I like it when you hear
actual people like this is Chloe a beautiful listener writing
in saying this happened to me.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
I wonder if Chloe feels like people minimize that experience, like, oh,
you must have just been out of it, or as
in you must have just hallucinated in that state or whatever,
like people trying to rationalize.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Of course, it's the same with everything. It's like my
friend the other day her grandma died, Yeah, and she
was like, the weirdest thing happened, And I almost played
it down, but I'm like, to her, it was something
and it was a real sign from her grandma. But
her grandma gave her her wedding rings. So Abby's wedding
rings are her NaN's wedding rings. And the other day
(19:10):
she passed and she they're very tight on Abby's fingers,
they've never come off. And the other day Abby was
getting ready for her funeral and she was in the
bathroom brushed her hair once and the wedding ring flew off. Yeah,
and she's like it was a sign. It was a
sign from Emmy. And I was like, the fact that
they'd never fallen off your fingers and then it did
(19:31):
on the day of her funeral, Like, that's a sign. Yeah,
that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
And also like, I think if you see it as
a sign, that's enough.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Well, that's the thing. That's what I was like. I
was like, that's amazing. Because it didn't happen to me.
I couldn't get the full sensation of that. But if
it happened to me on the day of my NaN's funeral,
I'd be like, of course, that was a sign from Nan.
Oh that's nice. Yeah, it is nice.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
That's really nice.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
