Speaker 1 (00:02):
Imagine, if you will, that you are in a place
of great beauty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Some teenage boys walk past you, they yell out, they
bitch tits. The world you see is a place of
paradox of beauty and cruelty.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
It will cut you off with the knees, then gift
you a pair of easies. And that, my friends, is
why you always always need a buck up.
Speaker 2 (00:48):

great dance. Yeah, like that dance.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
And I just love your outfit tonight.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I am feeling it.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
You're so happy you jumped out of your car and
you're wearing what could only be described in the best
possible way is twenty ten Matt Corby, my chemical romance.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Heavy shoulder.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
What do you call those things down there?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Well? Button? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
But what were like style? We call that like military.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
But then you've got your little your stocking.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Mini's skirt and lace stocking.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Big black boots. Oh Kate, has gone buckets.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
And do you know why I had lunch out of.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Your parents because they blocked MSN Messenger.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I know because they weren't and they I had a
friend over and they made me hit the door open.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Mum checked our backpacks before the sleepover?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Did that to my son today? Check the backpack? No,
he had. So there's a girl he likes at school.
Lovely girl, good girl. How do you know he's a
good boy? Well, because their parents keep a watchful eye.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Don't say names.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I'm not saying that that would end their life. Yeah,
I'm not saying.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Imagine being a teenager at high school and your names
are mentioned on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Anyway, she hardly ever comes to our house, right, and
she was over today. He made himself a Milo and
didn't make her one.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I'm like, whoa got twenty twenty five?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah she should have made one. Oh what she said,
I can make it? I said, no, No, he can
make you one. You're a guess.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
How does you have his Milo the way I used
to have it?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
With barely any milk?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
There?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Basicpoonful? You just get the tin of Milo, maybe get
an eye drop a full of milk paid put it straight. Yeah,
that's right, and then off you go. And it's funny.
I'd forgotten how good Milo was. And you know what, also,
I'd forgotten how good it was.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I know what you're gonna say, what ovaltine?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
No poor? What happened? Oh I haven't got funeral music
for ovaltine. It's no longer. No. Well, I think at
one time they were Nick and Nick. I haven't even
seen Ovalton.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
It's the great pepsi coke Battle of Australia.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I think it was, well, not now that battles long one,
of course, but imagine do you remember have you even
seen oval T?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Can you remember how disappointed you were if you were
at someone's house and they got the ovaltine out instead.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Of because it did you lose a bit? Yes, it
dissolved too thoroughly. Whereas that the magic of Milow is
the part like it's really clever. I know it's a design,
but it almost seems like an accident because it's so
good that the bit turns the milk chocolatey, and then
(03:53):
you've got the crunchy stuff on top. And if you
were in a lolly deprived house like we grew up in,
sweet deprived, never had anything like Mum and Dad would
get a bottle of Cordial like twice a year and
that was rationed cordial Cordial. Yeah, cordial cordial. Milo was
(04:13):
like glorious. Okay, I'm gonna throw something in the mix.
Should I introduce you first? It's up to you, because
how remissive.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Mens military jacket.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You've got the power hostess. I am that Here, I
have your ovaltine, one of them. The ovaltine to my
Milo is Nate Lollo right back at you this applause.
Oh and in the corner, what we have our molted
milk to your oval No, yeah, no, I want to
(04:48):
give you such a French.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I'm going to give you pink Ness Quick, which was excellent.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh what flavor was that? Strawberry? Yes, Johnny Bana's limited
edition now and the kids get very excited, okay, unlike
when they see you. They get very excited when they
see Banana Quick, which is now nest Quick right, yes, okay,
I'm going to throw this in there by the way,
sancha French, greatest producer in the world. A lot of
(05:18):
applause today. I'm gonna and feel free to throw in
whatever you think doesn't get its flowers cocoa pops. I
know it's strange, but I had some. So that we've
got a thing that when the kids are on school holidays,
they're allowed to get a treat cereal cocoa pops. What
(05:43):
cool parents you are? Well, no, we're very old fashioned.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Too hard.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
They're the partying guys. No they're not. They're not allowed
to have it on a school day because it's too
sugary to get you through.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Here's my issue with the cocoa pop. The cocoa pop
was my cereal of treat choice as a young man.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
You found the you found the monkey on the packet
culturally insensitive. Yeah, no one's ever seen a monkey.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Who said monkeys on cereal boxes were culturally inapproried.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
But I don't remember that article. Things happened now. I
thought you might throw it in the mix.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Then I went years and years without having it, and
maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I've got to go back. Then.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I had it again as an adult, and it just
didn't taste the same. I didn't the cocoa pops.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Oh no, okay, it didn't hit So they've done something
because he hit me so hard. It was so great.
I had like two bowls to the point where Yanni
was really means how many okay, four poles? Yeah, Yanni said, mum,
you've eaten all the cocoa pops. He was really annoyed.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I will raise you cocoa pops with what crunching not?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Come on? Yeah, you know I had to. I had
to crunch you.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Not.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Here's the irony. I had to digest that.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
It slaps so hard?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Still is it too sweet? Bring it on? What do
you want it? I know? But I like her. Yeah,
I love anything with the corn flake you can do.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
And just what the old mate husband's been smashing lately,
like he's some sort of supermodel in nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
But we know it's like an eight year old. I'm
in the pantry finding special k oh no, what is
going on? Oh no, but remember when I made the
fake cold saw sash. Oh, this was one of the
greatest things.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
He also did special k at our wedding. But that's
a whole different story.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Oh yes, that that is. Oh yes, that is. That
wasn't bringing anything back. Hey, So for listeners, hello, buckwits, buckheads,
back knuckles as.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
We sip our colue tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
No, we're on Frangelic Angelico for the first time Jesus
even more international Italian like. Okay, So here's a random
bit of something that will come in handy for someone
one day. If you ever want to make a fake
(08:12):
cold saw, all right? I thought about that three times today.
All right. If you ever want to make a fake
cold saw, special K is what you use? Wow, a
flake of special K and some eyelash glue. What's gone?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
What series of events happens where someone says, you know
what I need though a fake cold saw?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
All right? So I played a prank on a famous person.
It was so good. Do you remember her? Was Sage?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Did take a pash scene coming up? No?
Speaker 2 (08:55):
You know what I did? They were a guest on
our radio show, and for some reason I'd become obsessed
with having a facial case and also doing brief past radio,
getting up at four am and still thinking pranks. I'm
hard hardwire Ashton Kutcher Circle nineteen nineties or early two things.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Excuse me, Kate, You're forgetting something here when you came
up with your stupid pranks. I was the one sent
out to do.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
You couldn't execute this one because on the eye could
so what happened was I applied the eyelash glue, then
the flake of special k in the corner of the
mouth and make it too gray. No, you are spot on. God,
you're a great home You're so good. Do you live
(09:45):
with that panatony palette in your head? You're absolutely right.
So you know what you do, just what people do
with a real cold saw in brackets. You're not fooling anybody,
but yes, you put makeup over the top, which is
what people do with their real crusties herbies anyway, So
(10:08):
I put that on and then when our guest came
in and I'd discussed it with Hugh and Sara.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Are we not allowed to say the guests, I'll tell
you who it is.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Do you want me to tell you now? Yeah, so
you've got the mental picture. It's one of the nicest,
most gentlemanly people in Australian showbies. It's the bond divert
Oh yeah, okay. So when he came in, I said
to Sash and hughsy, I'm going to give go in
to give him a kiss, but I've really got to
(10:38):
make a big point of the fact that I've got
the cold saw, so that he gets really uncomfortable, and
then he pulled away from me. Well he's a doctor. Yeah,
the dog on the mouse. Oh, I don't know if
they do.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
My dog ever had a cold Saw.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I don't think it was special case. It was tricking me.
Oh they get that. There was him hinted for them,
wasn't it? Okay, you're speaking?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I can't at the cereal?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
What did you mean before? So now I'm the one
I look at him. I merely batted up what you
had batted up earlier, and now you act all derisive
about it.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
No, I was being cheeky on purpose. That's what we
do here on the bike up.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Okay. So when he came in the studio, I went
to kiss him with a bit of a lava so
you could see the thing. And I'm like, I'm so
happy to see you, and he recoiled from me fair enough.
So then I went, oh, my goodness, Oh I'm so embarrassed.
Oh it's my cold saw, isn't it? And I started
to cry. Can you cry on missy? I think I
(11:42):
pretty well? Did? I mean? It was?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It was you know, fair technically?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, So I started to cry and then he was
really apologetic and I was going no, no, I don't
blame you. I'm so sorry. I don't know what to
think anyway, It was absolutely one of the favorite moments
on my life. What were we talking about? Oh, cocoa pops?
But why? Oh why? Because things don't get what they deserve?
(12:09):
And the girl from girl from school? I told him
he had to leave the door open.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
No, you didn't get to that bit.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Why didn't I tell you?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
No?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, so I seed you've got the door. Well we
sort of that story out, so okay, yeah, sure, what
a buck? What a buck?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
But why because he has a girl that he likes over.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
But when we talking about before then, I don't know
you started it? How did I start? Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yes, you look like early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Early two thounds. That right early.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
I'll go with that.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
So an amazing thing happened. He left the door open. Yeah,
he left the door open. And then I went, what's
a nice thing for a young very young man and
very young woman to do together with the door closed?
Or no? No, just involving the world.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I have a question for your parents, the dog for
a walk, What do you possibly think is going to
happen if the doors closed and you're all home?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
It's what the afternoon? What serious? No, I am what my.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Is that that happens with everyone home?
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Are you frigid? Well? I didn't have girls over, did
I didn't have girls in the room. Fridgid? Haven't heard
that word?
Speaker 3 (13:35):
It's so good, Oh my god, you frigid.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
It's so frigid. And there was nothing worse than being frigid. Nothing,
nothing work. You know what I was? Frigid? We went
frigid to slut shaming so quick. Frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid. Yeah,
girls was very sexist. He always girls.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Yes, No boys got called frigid.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Boys got called for now.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
I have been at the age of forty one, but.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I got asked if you got asked if you were,
of course, because you're like, what do you think? So
imagine if you will, that you're attracted to a girl
and that your hormones are at peak.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
So I just want to say one thing, Yes, some
other stuff could happen, but what's wrong with that? Isn't
that natural and healthy? And you're just going to let
that happen. It's going to happen eventually or with or
without you. Shutting a door or not. I want you
to have it in the safety of your own home.
Should I not have kids?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Well no, Actually, a lot of people probably subscribe to
your parents. A lot of parents say I, you know,
at least they doing it under my recourse, I know
where they are. I don't believe in that, all right, So,
car Park, I believe that part of the ride of
passage is you're going to be doing stuff you shouldn't
be doing. It's up to you to find somewhere to
(14:55):
do that, right. It's actually very good, you know, waking
out the effort in I'm not making a place for
them to fornicate, defecate at drugs. No, No, they can
go do that somewhere else, not on my watch, is
what I say. Okay, not that I would think they
would be doing that, because they're both lovely. She's a
(15:16):
very kind of sweet, innocent ish girl. I don't know
what's going on with his.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
So I don't know what goes on with these children
that you're raising.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I've never had any kid have a girlfriend or boyfriend
at school.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
My other question is what do they do with the
door open?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Then? Well, nothing innocent things like what well, okay, if
I may quote the Bible, and I think I may
the works of wickedness, love Darkness's off. Yeah yeah, door close, close, whatever.
But with the door open, it's a more Also, out
(15:51):
of responsibility to her parents, I gather, because she's not
over very often and he like never you know, is
staying over at her house or anything. I believe they
have certain rules. In fact, I probably should discuss that
with her mum, shouldn't I.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
I have a memory of my sixteenth birthday party. Was
able to host it in the backyard there in Greensboro,
thank you, I'm not too short. A bunch of people,
and there was a big who hag from all the
parents who out the drinking. No, it was I was
seventeenth or eighteenth, one of them.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And if it was your eighteenth, there wouldn't have been who.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Drinks maybe two drinks? This this this parents shup division.
How many drinks?
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Da da da da da.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
The absolute There was three or four people that were
absolutely wasted, and they were all parents. The parents absolutely
shit faced when being one of them. And she knows
this story. She cannot deny this story. She thought it
would be funny if she reminded everyone at the party
(16:54):
of what.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
My birth was like? So off, she popped. That's a
cool memory, thank you. Is it on a microphone? Not
on a microphone? But no, but she made an announcement,
ish what was what was it? Did she give? No?
Speaker 3 (17:09):
She was doing the impression of a woman in labor.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Okay, really, how is your father smashed? He was vomiting
in the driveway. Do you know what? I never need
to hear a birth story?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Well, good luck hanging out with anyone I'm related to.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
But same And I know, I mean obviously when it's
your friends, you know the but you know some people
are still telling the birth stories like decades on.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I don't you want term limits for stories?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
I really do. I think once the person is taller
than you, you can stop telling the birth story. That's
just my, that's just my.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I never want to hear the word I know, norepa
dural back then.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I never want to hear that word. Nor do I
ever want.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
To hear the word yeah it's up there ruptures.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Oh dear, you don't want to hear either of those.
It's part of why I'm not as you know, I'm
very proet. I just think there's certain things that you
can you don't need to be sharing with people. So
last Friday, I was at home, door open because I
(18:24):
was about to go out with my daughter. I was
dropping her at the hairdresser, and Lewis came in from
outside and he goes, Mum, some guy just gave me
a note to give to you. I said, what, what
(18:46):
year is this? You know that's always really hard in
movies when people have to say what. It's really if
you just watch people have to say what. Some people,
it's really hard to do what because also it doesn't
happen really that often in life.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
It's true people, I don't know more people move, But
I go on, go on.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
This is a screenwriting go on.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
You put things in dialogue and you think that's the
thing that people say, and then when you actually look
at it, you go no one says that I've got
another one? Yes, yep, go okay.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
So in movies when they're trying to be romantic, how
they always say the person's full name. No one ever
does that. Nate Valvo or about this, I love you,
Nate Valvo about this, I love you to Kate lane
Brook And then we pass.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
No door open, okay, the phone rings. It's three o'clock
in the morning.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, that never happens in real life. People always tell
you the time. Well they have to do that, really,
they open the door. It's five o'clock in the morning.
Have to do that. Otherwise, how would we know.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I think you're going to You're gonna work it out.
People are smarter than you think.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Kate. I know all. Kate Lanebrook, Kate lane Brook, I
love you, Kate lane Brook. Yeah, although we often do
say our names, but not the original word.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You said to people, Well, what what?
Speaker 2 (20:02):
What? Lewis said. A man just gave me a note
to give to you. I said, what, And here's the note.
You might want to change your name. Read it out. Hello,
sorry about your car?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Then their name, then their name, then their phone number ye,
their license plate yeah, and another number and another number,
two numbers. Maybe they d sorry about your car. Is
this person saying that they just don't like it or
they've done something?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
No? Okay, So then I said to Lewis, what it's
three o'clock, I said, he just crashed into your car.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Which car, by the way, the doctors, the doctors, the
big doctor, the doctors car that you can't drive anyway.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
So I went, oh, no, but it wasn't bad. But
Lewis said, it's so Car've just gone out and looked
it's not that bad very quickly.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
This is a step up from you park like an idiot?
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Was your last note? I'm just constantly getting notes anyway.
But then I said to Lewis how did he know
where I lived? Because I had actually left my car.
You know, the parking situation outside our house is.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
There once, never coming back. Also, you don't use.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
The driveway because it's often full of what it's full
of air. That's where the atmosphere goes. Anyway, So I
said to Lewis how did he know where I lived?
(21:45):
And Lewis said he asked a neighbor. Apparently he asked
a neighbor. So this is my question to you. Was
someone watching him when he crashed into the car, because
you otherwise, how would you know what neighbor to go to?
There's all flats and whatever, and most of the neighbors
(22:06):
in flats wouldn't know what cars. Mind. I wouldn't imagine.
It's big.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, it's big and bad.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Everyone talking about you behind your back's back, they park
and they're drive It's just full of the air they
put a car in that.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
I just feel when one of your neighbors drives an
air bus as.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
You do the nut bus.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
No, your your doctor's car is so big.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Yes, it's too big. It's too yeah, really big, too
big for me on the first to admit it's too big.
It's too big, and obviously it's too big. Do you
know what?
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Also for our person by the way, Yeah, when you
drive past the cart, mean look like.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
A ninety five years old Yeah. Yeah, it's just two heads,
I know, and I have to often sit on a cushion.
It's kind of like a boat that's you do you
know some cars have that sort of boaty feeling. Let's
make up a name because we need to be able
to discuss Matthewson. No, let's just say mo. Sure, that's good.
(23:13):
Let's say mo right, easy to say maybe Momokay, that's
a cute names, very cat like. Go on. You know
what else? I think it's those Himalayan dumplings called momos. Yeah,
they're delicious. Dump they sell them at festival sometimes in
from a food van. Sounds I mean, I haven't been
(23:35):
to the Himalayas anyway, So do you think that someone
saw him hit my car, and then he asked that person,
do you know who's absolutely yes.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
So your question is do you know who the neighbor
is that knows No.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
No, My question is did he do this because he's
a good dude.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
No, he did.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
If you're hitting a little cary, you do the left.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yeah, victimless crumb. And also it's a bumper bar. Once
upon a time you could bump them. That's what they
would call bumper bars. Now the racket every hit the cocker.
Am I right? Hit the cocker. So once they stopped
making bumper bars out of material that you could bump,
i e. Metal and started making them out of plastic,
(24:22):
so that anytime there's a nick a grays a can't
hurt feeling, you've got to check that card to the
panel beaters.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Yeah, do you remember that line they were pulling out.
The car company is saying, we're making it easier to crash,
so it's safer.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
For you the driver. Is that what they say? Yea,
And they're taking the impact of the party. That's I'm
not on board. Who said that? I remember something that
not tell us any rubbish. I remember something like that
and it stuck me with Milo, I'll just swallow it.
Oh do you Lynn used to catch me Milo? No
(24:55):
milk raw dog in it?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Oh yeah, standing in the cupboard with a coffin is
coming out, especially.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
My mum banned sugar challenge. It's so dry, so delicious,
But it does take a lot us alive to get
that thing down.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I have something very controversial to you to say about
Milo my ready.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Hang on, do we need a drum roll? Do we need?
Do I need to steal myself?
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Well, there's someone in this room that has a connection
to that name.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Oh Sash's son my life.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
And we have been speaking about Milo for an hour
and we haven't asked is there any connection between a
son and the name?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Miles? Course there? Do you think she named her son
after chocolately drink? Do you really? So? You know what
he's done? Such I am saying her son's after you laugh?
You know I'm not.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
I'm simply saying, we're not going to talk about that
elephant in the room. I'm speaking about myle over an hour.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I don't think so because it's a European name. Okay,
so why don't they even think of it as much?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Do you name your son in New Zealand or Australia.
Australia and you were aware of it. I was aware
of it.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
His father wasn't overly happy with it. Thank you? Did
you get your way on that one? Sam? I went,
what did he like? Boring names? But I went sharky first?
Oh yeah, that's trying to underneath my Yeah, which reasonable.
I'm so happy milo one. Do you know what I wanted?
(26:32):
If you had a kid? What would you call it? Sharky?
Do you ever have fantasy children's name?
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I have about five, and most of them have been
used and some of them haven't. Soon going to keep
them to myself because hey, I'm still young. I'm taller
than I see you are.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
It's just one children? Why not someone's going to steal it?
How honored we'd be.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
There's a real weird one that I know no partner
would ever allow me to have.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I've always enjoyed it. What is it? You'll like it? Maybe?
What is it? No partner will ever let me do this? Wolfgang?
I love. There's a lot of wolfies now, Wolfgang. There's
a lot of wolfies. Really. Yeah. By the way, Osha
Gunsberg's got a wolfy what Yeah? And so his kids
name is Wolfgang. Whipper's got a wolf there's a few Wolfees,
(27:21):
and I believe they're Wolfgangs. Mum and dad had a
friend when Jehovah's witness from the church, from the congregation,
whose name was Wolfgang and he was German.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Hmm, there's a famous director, Wolfgang someone.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Can you show me that? Not that famous?
Speaker 3 (27:37):
No, it's a big movie, is done by a Wolfgang.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Yeah, but if he was that famous, we know the
name German. Maybe it's three Am or Wolfgang love you?
What I love you? Wolfgang Schmidt, I love you. It's
always got to be the last name. Have you found
a famous Wolfgang, famous Wolfgang Peterson, that's the one, not fame,
(28:00):
and give us the movie.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Give us the movie. It's a big movie. You'll go,
we've all seen that movie.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
But we don't know Wolfgang Peterson.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Is it the one about the kid and the thing?
Speaker 2 (28:12):
The never ending story? We got there? I got there.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
What a thrilling piece. That's probably up there at the
top three lowest points of this pod.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
People our buckwits. No, this is part of the glory. Alright.
We haven't given our money back guarantee. After that, you're
gonna do it. Yes, that's brave, all right, because when
you listen to this podcast, you're actually listening to your friends.
Because if you enjoy this podcast, then you know something
(28:50):
about us, and we, though we may have never met
in the flesh, know something about you about your spirit.
We hope to meet them in the flesh. One show.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
We've met a bunch already, maybeyond mad no wolf gangs yet, No,
we haven't had.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
A wolf for yet. So here is your money back
guarantee that when you listen to an episode of The
buck Up, and whenever you choose to do that mm hmm,
you will feel better at the end of it than
you did at the start. And the reason for that
is because the ideology of this pod friendship is that
(29:31):
people can have differing opinions. He's a dry Marlow guy
and I'm a wet Marlow guy, and she's a birthing
malo woman. And here we all come together in a
harmony and in a world that's binary and tells us
that opposition can't be friends. We proved we are speaking
(29:56):
of feeling good, bad, bad, bad, bad bad bad for
both of you. Can you hear this? I'm real present
for Kate Sush, do you know what these are the
You know, we talk about the worst people in the world.
The greatest people in the world are people who bring
their excess produce and distributed harvest. Folks stunning lemons, lemons.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
From the lemon tree in the backyard.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Because you are looking at, yes.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
A forty one year old first time home owner. I'll
hang on townhouse.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Yeah, just yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Yeah yeah owner, townhouse owner. That sounds weird.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I think you say home owner.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Hello, buckheads and crippling debt. We all meet in this
joyous occasion. There is a lemon tree at the back
and my god, it is chock a block. Okay, lemons
for days.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
So the greatest person in the world sold that house
to you because it was someone who had the wisdom
to plant a lemon tree next to it.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
An orange tree far less exciting at the moment.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Okay, So it's going on with the orangeanted an orange
tree and a lemon tree at our house last year.
One of the things I took, and you know, when
you move into our house you might not have experienced
this yet. You taken a rational hatred against the person
that lived there before you. For all the things they
didn't do, or for all the things they did and
they did.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Can I tell you why we can't hate them? When
we walked into our new place, there was a note
from them saying, your car, I hait your car, I've
left some milea with Mcarbot. Knock yourself about no milk
what They left a note saying we almost did a
(31:53):
renovation and spent money on the architect but we said no,
but here's the plans and left us all the architects plans.
Oh my goodness, Yeah, that's all right.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's fifteen grand right there. I mean, we're not going
to do any of it, but that's nice. Then you
can frame them.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
Telling us your house and then telling us that it
could be better anyway.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
So last year, one of the things that irrationally enraged
me about the old lady who was as it tuned up,
was not actually that old that we bought our house from.
We bought it in lockdown. We hadn't really seen it.
It is like it was held together with duct tape.
And it's a big house, right. One of the things
that enraged me about her was that she had lived
(32:38):
there apparently since the nineties, and she had never planted
a lemon tree. What sort of she got on star
is there's one thing you can do in this world.
You can grow one in a pot. You can grow
one on a tiny little bit of balcony space.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
And people seem to be very aware of the price
of lemon. Had about four different people on the weekend
say it's the dollar ten for four.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Well okay, oh yeah for one for what do teen?
And you know they change of rules. Shops aren't allowed
to sell lemons anymore. Yeah, the shops always have a basket.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Everyone knows, especially in Melbourne, the individual was not boxes
of lemons out in the front of many houses and
we love it.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
We've got to take your lemons anyway, trust those we planted. Yeah, totally.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
You're walking down a random street. Take one, Hang on,
what do you think.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
People are doing putting razor blades in questions? You're so
have some questions.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Trusting to a podcast Queen Cooker, Yeah, I know, but.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yet I trust the world. I don't trust the government goes,
but I trust my fellow citizens, Whereas you're the opposite.
You trust the government, but you don't trust humanity. Isn't
that interesting? Deep?
Speaker 3 (33:58):
I don't know where I trust the government.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Apparently you do you trust you know, you love, you
love forever chemicals.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
That's you miss going with you hate every second of it.
Ship and hard and things take longer. It's hard, it
takes longer to warm up. This, this, this, that that that.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
What I miss. We'll go back to teflon. But then
then I'll die earlier and then you and then you'll win.
Just think.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
I want to say something very quickly, He'll be to
the buckheads out there, this is this is what I
have learned in the last month of my life. I
used to have actually a stand up bit about how
I'd block people on Insta or facey if they posted
the sold pick of them in front of the picture
of sold I'd be like, that's the right of passage.
(34:52):
I'd report it as inappropriate right and power back all
you ever hear the buck up will come. Yes, we
got the place no one talks about. It is a
nightmare out there. So to the podcasts that are looking
trying to find it, trying to find a play for
a place, Yes, it is a living nightmare.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
When you say that chaos, do you say it that?
Because so many people are looking at so many people
looking and because things are so expences, and they make
up prices to get you in and then they.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Oh yeah the price listed that how it goes for
some people in this world. We love our families very much.
Some of us don't have the bank of mum and
dad tapping.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
On yes, right, yeah, some of us don't know our parents.
It takes a very long time to say a lot,
very very long time. It's impossible. The thought that on
an average wage you can even save a deposit, it's
like unbelievable. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
It's really crazy. And auctions are getting like forty fifty.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
People trying to rent a house as well.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Here's my biggest kickoff. We need AM radio soon but
not yet.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Oh come on, yeah, that's covered all right. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
The amount they are asking for houses that are freezing.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Cold, unbelievable, no heating.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
My hot tip is don't go buy your house in summer,
because you'll love it.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
We were looking in the winter. We were walking into
places that's a great so cold. Yes, I'm moving in here,
not storing meat. Yeah, but also you can put in heating.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
But that's the thing that's money. I don't want to
spend the money that that place was asking for then
making it warm.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
We had a miracle. Have you moved into a house
that requires you to spend no money on it?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
It's got heating and cooling, for sure.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
But there's nothing that you need to spend money. Yeah,
but there's nothing. You don't need to do anything.
Speaker 3 (36:53):
Bobs, of course, but we'll take our time. We don't
like the tiles.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's ugly. That's yeah, that's a shit color.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
This this, this, that, that that, But nothing that's like unlivable. Yeah, okay,
nothing that's going to make me shiver yeah in the morning.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
No, not like when we moved into our place and
I found out that the roof leaked oh oh yeah,
after oh yeah, from the pool because we've never seen it. No,
not from the pool on the roof. No, from rain
falling through ancient roof tiles and filling up one of
the lights in the lounge room so much that one
(37:31):
day I looked up there and I went, why is
that one green and all the other ones are kind
of clear? It had grown algae in it.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
I asked her Seppe, how much mum and dad bought
their house for back. Yeah, twenty two thousand dollars twenty
two ground out there in Greensborough.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
I'm amazing. Go on, I want to live in Greensborough
here two thousands. Right.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Movies make moving hardcore, proper moving seem romantic. It's always
in a montage.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Yeah, montage with music. Music.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
There's like boxes and they're laughing and they're holding laughing
old photos.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Yeah they are. They trying on things.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
This old sweater, They've still got this old sweater.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
This old sweater, and then they kiss in the middle
of it.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
They get Chinese takeout, yeah, in a box, in a box,
and they eat it surrounded by all of their rubbish
at the end of the day, laughing still.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Yeah, yeah, and satisfied. Let me tell you this all right,
give me the reality. Want to get divorced from your partner?
Speaker 3 (38:39):
Right, go move? Just discuss things like boxes and Butcher's
paper and who you going. This is our biggest chart.
Do you pay for someone to do the packing or
just the moving or the packing and the moving and
the cost doubles And it's what did you end up
doing packing ourselves?
Speaker 2 (38:57):
You packed yourself and paid someone to unpack it and.
Speaker 3 (38:59):
Gale popped on down or thank goodness for her an
amazing job.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Yes, you're not cursing her now when you're unpacking all
your bathroom stuff that she packed up prematurely, and you're
thanking her for that.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Our new place is less than ten minute drive from
our rental. And thank god, because I honestly think I'm
not exaggerating. I reckon eighteen trips I did over two days.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
Oh yes, because you always underrested.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
This bit of that bit back of how does anyone
do it in one go?
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Who were you removalless?
Speaker 3 (39:33):
I don't know, because the guys I found half down,
they were very good.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
We had big Samoans maybe Mary's and Samoans, and they
all played you know, they're all Christian. They were all Christians,
so they were all playing this like Christian sort of
rock music. They were so gorgeous. And then at the
end they lifted me up and we did one of
those long wedding photos where they were all carrying me.
(40:02):
Did you have the photo? So yeah, when we moved
and they lifted me like a toothpick, I loved it
because as you know, as you know, as you know,
my husband can't lift me. So that was just they
were so gorgeous. That's five. That's a fast service. And
also they moved like a fridge. They picked up a
(40:26):
fridge like it was an empty plastic bottle. So strong, amazing,
You're not me.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
I was dragging a lot of things on the ground,
a lot of scuff.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
And also I believe tears. Did you come?
Speaker 3 (40:43):
I said, yeah, that you say that, I said to
Cody before coming in tonight. There has been twice in
the last two days. I actually could have bursteas.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
I just get overwhelmed. You've hung out with me. I'm
going to tell you next week what I'm so overwhelmed by. Okay,
it's really like, I think I need psychological help.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
The mystery to moving to me is where did all
of this shit fit in the other place? Because we're
in the new place. Whenever you move, it just happened,
even rental.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Is your new house bigger than your old house? Has
he got more cupboards or way more? Yeah? Way more? Okay?
Can I tell you cupboards are at once a blessing
and a curse for when you've got stuff.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
Well, speaking of blessing and a curse, it is a
two story place.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
So the plus side is this fancy? The plus side
is this the entire understairs is storage. Right, it's like
another garage.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
That's Harry Potter's.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
The entire understairs is completely barren of space. Yeah, and
we go, yeah, so much shit. That's the positive.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Yeah, here's theme is that you've filled it. There's two
words I've never said.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
We've only been there for three or four days. Cody
and I have both said these two words in the
last day or two, and we're shocked. And this just
shows you how old we are plant fashion, what do
you mean? He both got planter fasci itis from all
of the carrying up the stairs and all the walking
up and down the stairs.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Eat both the soles of your feet our heels of God.
So when you wake up in the morning, your feet
are really sore, they're aching. Oh you're adorable. You both
got it. That's weird, mister fit man. And I'm surprised
about you, But I am surprised about Cody, just because
he runs for miles and cycles for miles.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
So the big ending to the moving day romantic in movies,
the lovely ending in movies. It was pouring rain. It
was this same storm. It was the freezy, cold, terrible,
awful night, and we were finally done for the day.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
We're just going to sit down, do it the movie.
The couch there, the.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Couch, the new couch.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
I knew the day it was supposed to like a movie.
Speaker 3 (43:17):
We sit down. Yeah, the TV is not in the
right spot. Nothing in the right but it's there.
Speaker 2 (43:22):
We plugged it in. You plugged it in.
Speaker 3 (43:25):
We've lost the Apple TV remote, so one we couldn't
watch anything because who has a free to air plug?
Speaker 2 (43:36):
Not do it via your phone?
Speaker 3 (43:37):
Apparently no Wi Fi yet, no wife, no Wi Fi yet,
so we couldn't connect the Apple TV.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
So TV was off. I was like, you just want
to like watch together.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
We Then I thought, but we've got dinner, right, So
I jump on Uber Eats and we ordered so much food.
Speaker 2 (43:56):
Was coming because you don't know what.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
We ordered the Vietnamese almost like Chinese, and we just
got so much stuff.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
We got squid, we got, we got, we got s
we got. We just laugh and went to town.
Speaker 3 (44:13):
It was done, eat too much money, beautiful, like a
forty five minute wait because it was such.
Speaker 2 (44:20):
A terrible evening, was very hungry. It took a very
long time. And then I knock at the door. It's
three am.
Speaker 3 (44:32):
I hadn't updated my address on uber eats and they
took the.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
It was like nine o'clock and you had to go.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
We had to put shoes on and jacket on.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
Get your I had to uber uber. Yeah, was it
sitting there?
Speaker 3 (44:56):
Uber eating?
Speaker 2 (44:57):
Uber eats was sitting there. They sent me the photo.
No one's homemade, No one's home. You have moved, Thank goodness.
The new residents weren't there.
Speaker 3 (45:07):
And then we get back. Where's the microwave?
Speaker 2 (45:10):
I want to warm some of this? Oh no, no,
just having cold cold. That's how you move. That's the reality.
Speaker 3 (45:20):
Sick of movies lying.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Do you know what? A girlfriend of mine who I
think you might also know, got someone's uber eats order
delivered to her by mistake. It was similar thing. It
was very late at night, and she was like, oh
my goodness, this is crazy. But what am I going
to do. I'll just open it and see what it is.
(45:45):
And I think it was pancakes and she was like,
this is amazing. No, it was late, so obviously someone
had ordered for dessert, waffles or pancakes. It was something
deserty delicious. So she went, actually, this is a victimless crime.
There's no one around here. She knows the name, but
she goes, they haven't ordered it. She opened the bag,
(46:08):
she was home with the baby. She opened the bag,
she took the waffles out, she put them on a plate.
She's like, I can't resist. She was just about to attacking.
In fact, I think she had forked a bit of
one of the waffles when there was a knock at
the door and there are two girls there. This is
hum There are two girls there, who went did you
(46:28):
get out ubery? Oh my goodness. She was mortified, and
she said she even wanted to lie, but she realized
from the front door they could see through to the
kitchen bench behind Miss Piggy. She said she more embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (46:54):
I would have said I also ordered this exact thing.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Yeah, she I think it all it went or went
through her mind. And she was like, but it was
not going to be good for you anyway, because it
would have been hot. It should have been hot, and
it's cold anyway. All I'm saying is you're lucky that
the new residents had not arrived in your old house
so that your vietnameas feast was waiting for you. Also, congratulations,
(47:19):
thank you. I will say the two happiest years of
my life I lived in was when I lived in
Italy and we had a landlord again and when something
broke we could just call him.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Do you know what I said twice today as a
rate payer, As a rate payer, go on, I should
have two parking permits, not one. How many do you
get We have the driveway, but we also then get one.
Speaker 2 (47:47):
You get one? What about the visitors?
Speaker 3 (47:49):
That's the one? No, no, no, we have a driveway
that can fit two cars. Yeah, but that counts, and
it's also a car park because.
Speaker 2 (47:57):
You're a town house. No, because you're a new build.
I think when people build two houses on what was
one block, they changed the parking yea, because you know
in all those streets they've got rid of what were
(48:17):
parking spaces and now they're full of driveways. That's what
happened in all the inner city.
Speaker 3 (48:23):
To surprise it very quickly. There's a school at the
end of the street, the other.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
End that's loud. Oh yeah, a primary school. Primary schools
are really loud, really loud. Like it, like it's loud?
Was so loud? I like noise? Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 3 (48:46):
If I can't handle noise.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
So if there's no noise.
Speaker 3 (48:49):
I go and put noise on only TV's on music on
d but it's loud. Why they learned to Why are
they pumping dance music?
Speaker 2 (48:58):
But that's what they do at.
Speaker 3 (48:59):
Quarter past ten and morning.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
These are four Yep, that's cruel man. They've all got
a recess. They've all got a running children have so
much energy that they that's how they just have to
burn it off.
Speaker 3 (49:13):
And the happiest person in the world about this move
is our princess, our daughter, our dog, derby Snobby. Guess
what she gets to do every morning now super early
with Cody goes down to the primary school. He lets
her off lead, and she goes through the entire school
of all the dropped food, all the drop biscuits, all
the lunches no one wanted. She is going to be
(49:34):
the world's fattest dog in a matter of weeks. I'll
just say this. Those children allowed.
Speaker 2 (49:40):
Yeah, they're loud. Children allowed. Do you know what get with?
Speaker 3 (49:45):
The program should have been on the listing.
Speaker 2 (49:55):
It's a text from This is from Jean, Hello Jen,
It's a text from her friend's mum. This is so
brilliant now because we're all onto the text from mum,
so we can troll.
Speaker 3 (50:09):
The tentacles are out.
Speaker 2 (50:11):
Yeah, the tentacles are out.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Because our moms have gone into hiding because they know
they are a segment.
Speaker 2 (50:15):
Now they just moms, shut up shop. I mean, I've
never known her to be so non communicative. Oh, good word. Yes,
except of course when she couldn't text, which was only
two years ago. This is a text from my friend's mum.
Your father's got hemorrhoids again. Stubborn old bugger won't go
(50:36):
to the doctors though your brother still does whatever his
wife tells him to, so he won't be coming to
the family barbecue again anyway. Gotta go and warm up
your father's ring cushion.
Speaker 3 (50:47):
Oh it's a text from I didn't know how that
was going to end.
Speaker 2 (50:52):
I'm happy it was with cushion. Do you know if
there's one thing that I never want to hear about
in my life, it's my father's hemorhis It's I do.

Speaker 3 (51:10):
Oh yes, yes, when there's a bossy wife and.
Speaker 2 (51:13):
Every family has one. And if you think you your
family doesn't have one, then you are the bossy wife. Like,
that's amazing. My family doesn't have a bossy wife? Does
the does a mom? Does that family have a bossy wife?
That's predictious immediately, Yeah. Yeah. Everyone works with an asshole,
(51:35):
and if you don't work with an asshole, you are
the asshole. No, you are the.
Speaker 3 (51:40):
Ass I got it. Does any mum like their son's wife?

possible way is twenty ten Matt Corby, my chemical romance.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Heavy shoulder.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
What do you call those things down there?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Well? Button? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
But what were like style? We call that like military.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
But then you've got your little your stocking.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Mini's skirt and lace stocking.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Big black boots. Oh Kate, has gone buckets.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
And do you know why I had lunch out of.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Your parents because they blocked MSN Messenger.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I know because they weren't and they I had a
friend over and they made me hit the door open.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Mum checked our backpacks before the sleepover?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Did that to my son today? Check the backpack? No,
he had. So there's a girl he likes at school.
Lovely girl, good girl. How do you know he's a
good boy? Well, because their parents keep a watchful eye.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Don't say names.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I'm not saying that that would end their life. Yeah,
I'm not saying.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Imagine being a teenager at high school and your names
are mentioned on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Anyway, she hardly ever comes to our house, right, and
she was over today. He made himself a Milo and
didn't make her one.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I'm like, whoa got twenty twenty five?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yeah she should have made one. Oh what she said,
I can make it? I said, no, No, he can
make you one. You're a guess.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
How does you have his Milo the way I used
to have it?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
With barely any milk?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
There?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Basicpoonful? You just get the tin of Milo, maybe get
an eye drop a full of milk paid put it straight. Yeah,
that's right, and then off you go. And it's funny.
I'd forgotten how good Milo was. And you know what, also,
I'd forgotten how good it was.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I know what you're gonna say, what ovaltine?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
No poor? What happened? Oh I haven't got funeral music
for ovaltine. It's no longer. No. Well, I think at
one time they were Nick and Nick. I haven't even
seen Ovalton.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
It's the great pepsi coke Battle of Australia.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I think it was, well, not now that battles long one,
of course, but imagine do you remember have you even
seen oval T?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Can you remember how disappointed you were if you were
at someone's house and they got the ovaltine out instead.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Of because it did you lose a bit? Yes, it
dissolved too thoroughly. Whereas that the magic of Milow is
the part like it's really clever. I know it's a design,
but it almost seems like an accident because it's so
good that the bit turns the milk chocolatey, and then
(03:53):
you've got the crunchy stuff on top. And if you
were in a lolly deprived house like we grew up in,
sweet deprived, never had anything like Mum and Dad would
get a bottle of Cordial like twice a year and
that was rationed cordial Cordial. Yeah, cordial cordial. Milo was
(04:13):
like glorious. Okay, I'm gonna throw something in the mix.
Should I introduce you first? It's up to you, because
how remissive.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Mens military jacket.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You've got the power hostess. I am that Here, I
have your ovaltine, one of them. The ovaltine to my
Milo is Nate Lollo right back at you this applause.
Oh and in the corner, what we have our molted
milk to your oval No, yeah, no, I want to
(04:48):
give you such a French.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I'm going to give you pink Ness Quick, which was excellent.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh what flavor was that? Strawberry? Yes, Johnny Bana's limited
edition now and the kids get very excited, okay, unlike
when they see you. They get very excited when they
see Banana Quick, which is now nest Quick right, yes, okay,
I'm going to throw this in there by the way,
sancha French, greatest producer in the world. A lot of
(05:18):
applause today. I'm gonna and feel free to throw in
whatever you think doesn't get its flowers cocoa pops. I
know it's strange, but I had some. So that we've
got a thing that when the kids are on school holidays,
they're allowed to get a treat cereal cocoa pops. What
(05:43):
cool parents you are? Well, no, we're very old fashioned.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Too hard.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
They're the partying guys. No they're not. They're not allowed
to have it on a school day because it's too
sugary to get you through.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Here's my issue with the cocoa pop. The cocoa pop
was my cereal of treat choice as a young man.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
You found the you found the monkey on the packet
culturally insensitive. Yeah, no one's ever seen a monkey.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Who said monkeys on cereal boxes were culturally inapproried.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
But I don't remember that article. Things happened now. I
thought you might throw it in the mix.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Then I went years and years without having it, and
maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I've got to go back. Then.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I had it again as an adult, and it just
didn't taste the same. I didn't the cocoa pops.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Oh no, okay, it didn't hit So they've done something
because he hit me so hard. It was so great.
I had like two bowls to the point where Yanni
was really means how many okay, four poles? Yeah, Yanni said, mum,
you've eaten all the cocoa pops. He was really annoyed.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I will raise you cocoa pops with what crunching not?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Come on? Yeah, you know I had to. I had
to crunch you.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Not.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Here's the irony. I had to digest that.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
It slaps so hard?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Still is it too sweet? Bring it on? What do
you want it? I know? But I like her. Yeah,
I love anything with the corn flake you can do.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
And just what the old mate husband's been smashing lately,
like he's some sort of supermodel in nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
But we know it's like an eight year old. I'm
in the pantry finding special k oh no, what is
going on? Oh no, but remember when I made the
fake cold saw sash. Oh, this was one of the
greatest things.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
He also did special k at our wedding. But that's
a whole different story.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Oh yes, that that is. Oh yes, that is. That
wasn't bringing anything back. Hey, So for listeners, hello, buckwits, buckheads,
back knuckles as.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
We sip our colue tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
No, we're on Frangelic Angelico for the first time Jesus
even more international Italian like. Okay, So here's a random
bit of something that will come in handy for someone
one day. If you ever want to make a fake
(08:12):
cold saw, all right? I thought about that three times today.
All right. If you ever want to make a fake
cold saw, special K is what you use? Wow, a
flake of special K and some eyelash glue. What's gone?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
What series of events happens where someone says, you know
what I need though a fake cold saw?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
All right? So I played a prank on a famous person.
It was so good. Do you remember her? Was Sage?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Did take a pash scene coming up? No?
Speaker 2 (08:55):
You know what I did? They were a guest on
our radio show, and for some reason I'd become obsessed
with having a facial case and also doing brief past radio,
getting up at four am and still thinking pranks. I'm
hard hardwire Ashton Kutcher Circle nineteen nineties or early two things.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Excuse me, Kate, You're forgetting something here when you came
up with your stupid pranks. I was the one sent
out to do.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
You couldn't execute this one because on the eye could
so what happened was I applied the eyelash glue, then
the flake of special k in the corner of the
mouth and make it too gray. No, you are spot on. God,
you're a great home You're so good. Do you live
(09:45):
with that panatony palette in your head? You're absolutely right.
So you know what you do, just what people do
with a real cold saw in brackets. You're not fooling anybody,
but yes, you put makeup over the top, which is
what people do with their real crusties herbies anyway, So
(10:08):
I put that on and then when our guest came
in and I'd discussed it with Hugh and Sara.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Are we not allowed to say the guests, I'll tell
you who it is.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Do you want me to tell you now? Yeah, so
you've got the mental picture. It's one of the nicest,
most gentlemanly people in Australian showbies. It's the bond divert
Oh yeah, okay. So when he came in, I said
to Sash and hughsy, I'm going to give go in
to give him a kiss, but I've really got to
(10:38):
make a big point of the fact that I've got
the cold saw, so that he gets really uncomfortable, and
then he pulled away from me. Well he's a doctor. Yeah,
the dog on the mouse. Oh, I don't know if
they do.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
My dog ever had a cold Saw.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I don't think it was special case. It was tricking me.
Oh they get that. There was him hinted for them,
wasn't it? Okay, you're speaking?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I can't at the cereal?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
What did you mean before? So now I'm the one
I look at him. I merely batted up what you
had batted up earlier, and now you act all derisive
about it.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
No, I was being cheeky on purpose. That's what we
do here on the bike up.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Okay. So when he came in the studio, I went
to kiss him with a bit of a lava so
you could see the thing. And I'm like, I'm so
happy to see you, and he recoiled from me fair enough.
So then I went, oh, my goodness, Oh I'm so embarrassed.
Oh it's my cold saw, isn't it? And I started
to cry. Can you cry on missy? I think I
(11:42):
pretty well? Did? I mean? It was?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
It was you know, fair technically?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, So I started to cry and then he was
really apologetic and I was going no, no, I don't
blame you. I'm so sorry. I don't know what to
think anyway, It was absolutely one of the favorite moments
on my life. What were we talking about? Oh, cocoa pops?
But why? Oh why? Because things don't get what they deserve?
(12:09):
And the girl from girl from school? I told him
he had to leave the door open.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
No, you didn't get to that bit.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Why didn't I tell you?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
No?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, so I seed you've got the door. Well we
sort of that story out, so okay, yeah, sure, what
a buck? What a buck?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
But why because he has a girl that he likes over.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
But when we talking about before then, I don't know
you started it? How did I start? Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yes, you look like early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Early two thounds. That right early.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
I'll go with that.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
So an amazing thing happened. He left the door open. Yeah,
he left the door open. And then I went, what's
a nice thing for a young very young man and
very young woman to do together with the door closed?
Or no? No, just involving the world.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I have a question for your parents, the dog for
a walk, What do you possibly think is going to
happen if the doors closed and you're all home?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
It's what the afternoon? What serious? No, I am what my.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Is that that happens with everyone home?
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Are you frigid? Well? I didn't have girls over, did
I didn't have girls in the room. Fridgid? Haven't heard
that word?
Speaker 3 (13:35):
It's so good, Oh my god, you frigid.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
It's so frigid. And there was nothing worse than being frigid. Nothing,
nothing work. You know what I was? Frigid? We went
frigid to slut shaming so quick. Frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid, frigid. Yeah,
girls was very sexist. He always girls.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Yes, No boys got called frigid.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Boys got called for now.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
I have been at the age of forty one, but.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I got asked if you got asked if you were,
of course, because you're like, what do you think? So
imagine if you will, that you're attracted to a girl
and that your hormones are at peak.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
So I just want to say one thing, Yes, some
other stuff could happen, but what's wrong with that? Isn't
that natural and healthy? And you're just going to let
that happen. It's going to happen eventually or with or
without you. Shutting a door or not. I want you
to have it in the safety of your own home.
Should I not have kids?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Well no, Actually, a lot of people probably subscribe to
your parents. A lot of parents say I, you know,
at least they doing it under my recourse, I know
where they are. I don't believe in that, all right, So,
car Park, I believe that part of the ride of
passage is you're going to be doing stuff you shouldn't
be doing. It's up to you to find somewhere to
(14:55):
do that, right. It's actually very good, you know, waking
out the effort in I'm not making a place for
them to fornicate, defecate at drugs. No, No, they can
go do that somewhere else, not on my watch, is
what I say. Okay, not that I would think they
would be doing that, because they're both lovely. She's a
(15:16):
very kind of sweet, innocent ish girl. I don't know
what's going on with his.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
So I don't know what goes on with these children
that you're raising.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I've never had any kid have a girlfriend or boyfriend
at school.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
My other question is what do they do with the
door open?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Then? Well, nothing innocent things like what well, okay, if
I may quote the Bible, and I think I may
the works of wickedness, love Darkness's off. Yeah yeah, door close, close, whatever.
But with the door open, it's a more Also, out
(15:51):
of responsibility to her parents, I gather, because she's not
over very often and he like never you know, is
staying over at her house or anything. I believe they
have certain rules. In fact, I probably should discuss that
with her mum, shouldn't I.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
I have a memory of my sixteenth birthday party. Was
able to host it in the backyard there in Greensboro,
thank you, I'm not too short. A bunch of people,
and there was a big who hag from all the
parents who out the drinking. No, it was I was
seventeenth or eighteenth, one of them.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And if it was your eighteenth, there wouldn't have been who.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Drinks maybe two drinks? This this this parents shup division.
How many drinks?
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Da da da da da.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
The absolute There was three or four people that were
absolutely wasted, and they were all parents. The parents absolutely
shit faced when being one of them. And she knows
this story. She cannot deny this story. She thought it
would be funny if she reminded everyone at the party
(16:54):
of what.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
My birth was like? So off, she popped. That's a
cool memory, thank you. Is it on a microphone? Not
on a microphone? But no, but she made an announcement,
ish what was what was it? Did she give? No?
Speaker 3 (17:09):
She was doing the impression of a woman in labor.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Okay, really, how is your father smashed? He was vomiting
in the driveway. Do you know what? I never need
to hear a birth story?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Well, good luck hanging out with anyone I'm related to.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
But same And I know, I mean obviously when it's
your friends, you know the but you know some people
are still telling the birth stories like decades on.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I don't you want term limits for stories?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
I really do. I think once the person is taller
than you, you can stop telling the birth story. That's
just my, that's just my.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I never want to hear the word I know, norepa
dural back then.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I never want to hear that word. Nor do I
ever want.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
To hear the word yeah it's up there ruptures.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Oh dear, you don't want to hear either of those.
It's part of why I'm not as you know, I'm
very proet. I just think there's certain things that you
can you don't need to be sharing with people. So
last Friday, I was at home, door open because I
(18:24):
was about to go out with my daughter. I was
dropping her at the hairdresser, and Lewis came in from
outside and he goes, Mum, some guy just gave me
a note to give to you. I said, what, what
(18:46):
year is this? You know that's always really hard in
movies when people have to say what. It's really if
you just watch people have to say what. Some people,
it's really hard to do what because also it doesn't
happen really that often in life.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
It's true people, I don't know more people move, But
I go on, go on.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
This is a screenwriting go on.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
You put things in dialogue and you think that's the
thing that people say, and then when you actually look
at it, you go no one says that I've got
another one? Yes, yep, go okay.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
So in movies when they're trying to be romantic, how
they always say the person's full name. No one ever
does that. Nate Valvo or about this, I love you,
Nate Valvo about this, I love you to Kate lane
Brook And then we pass.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
No door open, okay, the phone rings. It's three o'clock
in the morning.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, that never happens in real life. People always tell
you the time. Well they have to do that, really,
they open the door. It's five o'clock in the morning.
Have to do that. Otherwise, how would we know.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I think you're going to You're gonna work it out.
People are smarter than you think.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Kate. I know all. Kate Lanebrook, Kate lane Brook, I
love you, Kate lane Brook. Yeah, although we often do
say our names, but not the original word.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You said to people, Well, what what?
Speaker 2 (20:02):
What? Lewis said. A man just gave me a note
to give to you. I said, what, And here's the note.
You might want to change your name. Read it out. Hello,
sorry about your car?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Then their name, then their name, then their phone number ye,
their license plate yeah, and another number and another number,
two numbers. Maybe they d sorry about your car. Is
this person saying that they just don't like it or
they've done something?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
No? Okay, So then I said to Lewis, what it's
three o'clock, I said, he just crashed into your car.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Which car, by the way, the doctors, the doctors, the
big doctor, the doctors car that you can't drive anyway.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
So I went, oh, no, but it wasn't bad. But
Lewis said, it's so Car've just gone out and looked
it's not that bad very quickly.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
This is a step up from you park like an idiot?
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Was your last note? I'm just constantly getting notes anyway.
But then I said to Lewis how did he know
where I lived? Because I had actually left my car.
You know, the parking situation outside our house is.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
There once, never coming back. Also, you don't use.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
The driveway because it's often full of what it's full
of air. That's where the atmosphere goes. Anyway, So I
said to Lewis how did he know where I lived?
(21:45):
And Lewis said he asked a neighbor. Apparently he asked
a neighbor. So this is my question to you. Was
someone watching him when he crashed into the car, because
you otherwise, how would you know what neighbor to go to?
There's all flats and whatever, and most of the neighbors
(22:06):
in flats wouldn't know what cars. Mind. I wouldn't imagine.
It's big.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, it's big and bad.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Everyone talking about you behind your back's back, they park
and they're drive It's just full of the air they
put a car in that.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
I just feel when one of your neighbors drives an
air bus as.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
You do the nut bus.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
No, your your doctor's car is so big.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Yes, it's too big. It's too yeah, really big, too
big for me on the first to admit it's too big.
It's too big, and obviously it's too big. Do you
know what?
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Also for our person by the way, Yeah, when you
drive past the cart, mean look like.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
A ninety five years old Yeah. Yeah, it's just two heads,
I know, and I have to often sit on a cushion.
It's kind of like a boat that's you do you
know some cars have that sort of boaty feeling. Let's
make up a name because we need to be able
to discuss Matthewson. No, let's just say mo. Sure, that's good.
(23:13):
Let's say mo right, easy to say maybe Momokay, that's
a cute names, very cat like. Go on. You know
what else? I think it's those Himalayan dumplings called momos. Yeah,
they're delicious. Dump they sell them at festival sometimes in
from a food van. Sounds I mean, I haven't been
(23:35):
to the Himalayas anyway, So do you think that someone
saw him hit my car, and then he asked that person,
do you know who's absolutely yes.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
So your question is do you know who the neighbor
is that knows No.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
No, My question is did he do this because he's
a good dude.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
No, he did.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
If you're hitting a little cary, you do the left.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yeah, victimless crumb. And also it's a bumper bar. Once
upon a time you could bump them. That's what they
would call bumper bars. Now the racket every hit the cocker.
Am I right? Hit the cocker. So once they stopped
making bumper bars out of material that you could bump,
i e. Metal and started making them out of plastic,
(24:22):
so that anytime there's a nick a grays a can't
hurt feeling, you've got to check that card to the
panel beaters.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Yeah, do you remember that line they were pulling out.
The car company is saying, we're making it easier to crash,
so it's safer.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
For you the driver. Is that what they say? Yea,
And they're taking the impact of the party. That's I'm
not on board. Who said that? I remember something that
not tell us any rubbish. I remember something like that
and it stuck me with Milo, I'll just swallow it.
Oh do you Lynn used to catch me Milo? No
(24:55):
milk raw dog in it?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Oh yeah, standing in the cupboard with a coffin is
coming out, especially.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
My mum banned sugar challenge. It's so dry, so delicious,
But it does take a lot us alive to get
that thing down.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I have something very controversial to you to say about
Milo my ready.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Hang on, do we need a drum roll? Do we need?
Do I need to steal myself?
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Well, there's someone in this room that has a connection
to that name.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Oh Sash's son my life.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
And we have been speaking about Milo for an hour
and we haven't asked is there any connection between a
son and the name?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Miles? Course there? Do you think she named her son
after chocolately drink? Do you really? So? You know what
he's done? Such I am saying her son's after you laugh?
You know I'm not.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
I'm simply saying, we're not going to talk about that
elephant in the room. I'm speaking about myle over an hour.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
I don't think so because it's a European name. Okay,
so why don't they even think of it as much?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Do you name your son in New Zealand or Australia.
Australia and you were aware of it. I was aware
of it.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
His father wasn't overly happy with it. Thank you? Did
you get your way on that one? Sam? I went,
what did he like? Boring names? But I went sharky first?
Oh yeah, that's trying to underneath my Yeah, which reasonable.
I'm so happy milo one. Do you know what I wanted?
(26:32):
If you had a kid? What would you call it? Sharky?
Do you ever have fantasy children's name?
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I have about five, and most of them have been
used and some of them haven't. Soon going to keep
them to myself because hey, I'm still young. I'm taller
than I see you are.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
It's just one children? Why not someone's going to steal it?
How honored we'd be.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
There's a real weird one that I know no partner
would ever allow me to have.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I've always enjoyed it. What is it? You'll like it? Maybe?
What is it? No partner will ever let me do this? Wolfgang?
I love. There's a lot of wolfies now, Wolfgang. There's
a lot of wolfies. Really. Yeah. By the way, Osha
Gunsberg's got a wolfy what Yeah? And so his kids
name is Wolfgang. Whipper's got a wolf there's a few Wolfees,
(27:21):
and I believe they're Wolfgangs. Mum and dad had a
friend when Jehovah's witness from the church, from the congregation,
whose name was Wolfgang and he was German.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Hmm, there's a famous director, Wolfgang someone.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Can you show me that? Not that famous?
Speaker 3 (27:37):
No, it's a big movie, is done by a Wolfgang.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Yeah, but if he was that famous, we know the
name German. Maybe it's three Am or Wolfgang love you?
What I love you? Wolfgang Schmidt, I love you. It's
always got to be the last name. Have you found
a famous Wolfgang, famous Wolfgang Peterson, that's the one, not fame,
(28:00):
and give us the movie.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Give us the movie. It's a big movie. You'll go,
we've all seen that movie.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
But we don't know Wolfgang Peterson.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Is it the one about the kid and the thing?
Speaker 2 (28:12):
The never ending story? We got there? I got there.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
What a thrilling piece. That's probably up there at the
top three lowest points of this pod.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
People our buckwits. No, this is part of the glory. Alright.
We haven't given our money back guarantee. After that, you're
gonna do it. Yes, that's brave, all right, because when
you listen to this podcast, you're actually listening to your friends.
Because if you enjoy this podcast, then you know something
(28:50):
about us, and we, though we may have never met
in the flesh, know something about you about your spirit.
We hope to meet them in the flesh. One show.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
We've met a bunch already, maybeyond mad no wolf gangs yet, No,
we haven't had.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
A wolf for yet. So here is your money back
guarantee that when you listen to an episode of The
buck Up, and whenever you choose to do that mm hmm,
you will feel better at the end of it than
you did at the start. And the reason for that
is because the ideology of this pod friendship is that
(29:31):
people can have differing opinions. He's a dry Marlow guy
and I'm a wet Marlow guy, and she's a birthing
malo woman. And here we all come together in a
harmony and in a world that's binary and tells us
that opposition can't be friends. We proved we are speaking
(29:56):
of feeling good, bad, bad, bad, bad bad bad for
both of you. Can you hear this? I'm real present
for Kate Sush, do you know what these are the
You know, we talk about the worst people in the world.
The greatest people in the world are people who bring
their excess produce and distributed harvest. Folks stunning lemons, lemons.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
From the lemon tree in the backyard.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Because you are looking at, yes.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
A forty one year old first time home owner. I'll
hang on townhouse.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Yeah, just yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Yeah yeah owner, townhouse owner. That sounds weird.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I think you say home owner.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Hello, buckheads and crippling debt. We all meet in this
joyous occasion. There is a lemon tree at the back
and my god, it is chock a block. Okay, lemons
for days.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
So the greatest person in the world sold that house
to you because it was someone who had the wisdom
to plant a lemon tree next to it.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
An orange tree far less exciting at the moment.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Okay, So it's going on with the orangeanted an orange
tree and a lemon tree at our house last year.
One of the things I took, and you know, when
you move into our house you might not have experienced
this yet. You taken a rational hatred against the person
that lived there before you. For all the things they
didn't do, or for all the things they did and
they did.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Can I tell you why we can't hate them? When
we walked into our new place, there was a note
from them saying, your car, I hait your car, I've
left some milea with Mcarbot. Knock yourself about no milk
what They left a note saying we almost did a
(31:53):
renovation and spent money on the architect but we said no,
but here's the plans and left us all the architects plans.
Oh my goodness, Yeah, that's all right.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's fifteen grand right there. I mean, we're not going
to do any of it, but that's nice. Then you
can frame them.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
Telling us your house and then telling us that it
could be better anyway.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
So last year, one of the things that irrationally enraged
me about the old lady who was as it tuned up,
was not actually that old that we bought our house from.
We bought it in lockdown. We hadn't really seen it.
It is like it was held together with duct tape.
And it's a big house, right. One of the things
that enraged me about her was that she had lived
(32:38):
there apparently since the nineties, and she had never planted
a lemon tree. What sort of she got on star
is there's one thing you can do in this world.
You can grow one in a pot. You can grow
one on a tiny little bit of balcony space.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
And people seem to be very aware of the price
of lemon. Had about four different people on the weekend
say it's the dollar ten for four.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Well okay, oh yeah for one for what do teen?
And you know they change of rules. Shops aren't allowed
to sell lemons anymore. Yeah, the shops always have a basket.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Everyone knows, especially in Melbourne, the individual was not boxes
of lemons out in the front of many houses and
we love it.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
We've got to take your lemons anyway, trust those we planted. Yeah, totally.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
You're walking down a random street. Take one, Hang on,
what do you think.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
People are doing putting razor blades in questions? You're so
have some questions.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Trusting to a podcast Queen Cooker, Yeah, I know, but.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yet I trust the world. I don't trust the government goes,
but I trust my fellow citizens, Whereas you're the opposite.
You trust the government, but you don't trust humanity. Isn't
that interesting? Deep?
Speaker 3 (33:58):
I don't know where I trust the government.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
Apparently you do you trust you know, you love, you
love forever chemicals.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
That's you miss going with you hate every second of it.
Ship and hard and things take longer. It's hard, it
takes longer to warm up. This, this, this, that that that.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
What I miss. We'll go back to teflon. But then
then I'll die earlier and then you and then you'll win.
Just think.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
I want to say something very quickly, He'll be to
the buckheads out there, this is this is what I
have learned in the last month of my life. I
used to have actually a stand up bit about how
I'd block people on Insta or facey if they posted
the sold pick of them in front of the picture
of sold I'd be like, that's the right of passage.
(34:52):
I'd report it as inappropriate right and power back all
you ever hear the buck up will come. Yes, we
got the place no one talks about. It is a
nightmare out there. So to the podcasts that are looking
trying to find it, trying to find a play for
a place, Yes, it is a living nightmare.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
When you say that chaos, do you say it that?
Because so many people are looking at so many people
looking and because things are so expences, and they make
up prices to get you in and then they.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Oh yeah the price listed that how it goes for
some people in this world. We love our families very much.
Some of us don't have the bank of mum and
dad tapping.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
On yes, right, yeah, some of us don't know our parents.
It takes a very long time to say a lot,
very very long time. It's impossible. The thought that on
an average wage you can even save a deposit, it's
like unbelievable. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
It's really crazy. And auctions are getting like forty fifty.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
People trying to rent a house as well.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Here's my biggest kickoff. We need AM radio soon but
not yet.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Oh come on, yeah, that's covered all right. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
The amount they are asking for houses that are freezing.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Cold, unbelievable, no heating.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
My hot tip is don't go buy your house in summer,
because you'll love it.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
We were looking in the winter. We were walking into
places that's a great so cold. Yes, I'm moving in here,
not storing meat. Yeah, but also you can put in heating.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
But that's the thing that's money. I don't want to
spend the money that that place was asking for then
making it warm.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
We had a miracle. Have you moved into a house
that requires you to spend no money on it?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
It's got heating and cooling, for sure.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
But there's nothing that you need to spend money. Yeah,
but there's nothing. You don't need to do anything.
Speaker 3 (36:53):
Bobs, of course, but we'll take our time. We don't
like the tiles.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
That's ugly. That's yeah, that's a shit color.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
This this, this, that, that that, But nothing that's like unlivable. Yeah, okay,
nothing that's going to make me shiver yeah in the morning.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
No, not like when we moved into our place and
I found out that the roof leaked oh oh yeah,
after oh yeah, from the pool because we've never seen it. No,
not from the pool on the roof. No, from rain
falling through ancient roof tiles and filling up one of
the lights in the lounge room so much that one
(37:31):
day I looked up there and I went, why is
that one green and all the other ones are kind
of clear? It had grown algae in it.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
I asked her Seppe, how much mum and dad bought
their house for back. Yeah, twenty two thousand dollars twenty
two ground out there in Greensborough.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
I'm amazing. Go on, I want to live in Greensborough
here two thousands. Right.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Movies make moving hardcore, proper moving seem romantic. It's always
in a montage.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Yeah, montage with music. Music.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
There's like boxes and they're laughing and they're holding laughing
old photos.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Yeah they are. They trying on things.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
This old sweater, They've still got this old sweater.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
This old sweater, and then they kiss in the middle
of it.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
They get Chinese takeout, yeah, in a box, in a box,
and they eat it surrounded by all of their rubbish
at the end of the day, laughing still.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Yeah, yeah, and satisfied. Let me tell you this all right,
give me the reality. Want to get divorced from your partner?
Speaker 3 (38:39):
Right, go move? Just discuss things like boxes and Butcher's
paper and who you going. This is our biggest chart.
Do you pay for someone to do the packing or
just the moving or the packing and the moving and
the cost doubles And it's what did you end up
doing packing ourselves?
Speaker 2 (38:57):
You packed yourself and paid someone to unpack it and.
Speaker 3 (38:59):
Gale popped on down or thank goodness for her an
amazing job.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Yes, you're not cursing her now when you're unpacking all
your bathroom stuff that she packed up prematurely, and you're
thanking her for that.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Our new place is less than ten minute drive from
our rental. And thank god, because I honestly think I'm
not exaggerating. I reckon eighteen trips I did over two days.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
Oh yes, because you always underrested.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
This bit of that bit back of how does anyone
do it in one go?
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Who were you removalless?
Speaker 3 (39:33):
I don't know, because the guys I found half down,
they were very good.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
We had big Samoans maybe Mary's and Samoans, and they
all played you know, they're all Christian. They were all Christians,
so they were all playing this like Christian sort of
rock music. They were so gorgeous. And then at the
end they lifted me up and we did one of
those long wedding photos where they were all carrying me.
(40:02):
Did you have the photo? So yeah, when we moved
and they lifted me like a toothpick, I loved it
because as you know, as you know, as you know,
my husband can't lift me. So that was just they
were so gorgeous. That's five. That's a fast service. And
also they moved like a fridge. They picked up a
(40:26):
fridge like it was an empty plastic bottle. So strong, amazing,
You're not me.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
I was dragging a lot of things on the ground,
a lot of scuff.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
And also I believe tears. Did you come?
Speaker 3 (40:43):
I said, yeah, that you say that, I said to
Cody before coming in tonight. There has been twice in
the last two days. I actually could have bursteas.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
I just get overwhelmed. You've hung out with me. I'm
going to tell you next week what I'm so overwhelmed by. Okay,
it's really like, I think I need psychological help.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
The mystery to moving to me is where did all
of this shit fit in the other place? Because we're
in the new place. Whenever you move, it just happened,
even rental.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Is your new house bigger than your old house? Has
he got more cupboards or way more? Yeah? Way more? Okay?
Can I tell you cupboards are at once a blessing
and a curse for when you've got stuff.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
Well, speaking of blessing and a curse, it is a
two story place.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
So the plus side is this fancy? The plus side
is this the entire understairs is storage. Right, it's like
another garage.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
That's Harry Potter's.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
The entire understairs is completely barren of space. Yeah, and
we go, yeah, so much shit. That's the positive.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Yeah, here's theme is that you've filled it. There's two
words I've never said.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
We've only been there for three or four days. Cody
and I have both said these two words in the
last day or two, and we're shocked. And this just
shows you how old we are plant fashion, what do
you mean? He both got planter fasci itis from all
of the carrying up the stairs and all the walking
up and down the stairs.
Speaker 2 (42:25):
Eat both the soles of your feet our heels of God.
So when you wake up in the morning, your feet
are really sore, they're aching. Oh you're adorable. You both
got it. That's weird, mister fit man. And I'm surprised
about you, But I am surprised about Cody, just because
he runs for miles and cycles for miles.
Speaker 3 (42:46):
So the big ending to the moving day romantic in movies,
the lovely ending in movies. It was pouring rain. It
was this same storm. It was the freezy, cold, terrible,
awful night, and we were finally done for the day.
Speaker 2 (43:06):
We're just going to sit down, do it the movie.
The couch there, the.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Couch, the new couch.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
I knew the day it was supposed to like a movie.
Speaker 3 (43:17):
We sit down. Yeah, the TV is not in the
right spot. Nothing in the right but it's there.
Speaker 2 (43:22):
We plugged it in. You plugged it in.
Speaker 3 (43:25):
We've lost the Apple TV remote, so one we couldn't
watch anything because who has a free to air plug?
Speaker 2 (43:36):
Not do it via your phone?
Speaker 3 (43:37):
Apparently no Wi Fi yet, no wife, no Wi Fi yet,
so we couldn't connect the Apple TV.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
So TV was off. I was like, you just want
to like watch together.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
We Then I thought, but we've got dinner, right, So
I jump on Uber Eats and we ordered so much food.
Speaker 2 (43:56):
Was coming because you don't know what.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
We ordered the Vietnamese almost like Chinese, and we just
got so much stuff.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
We got squid, we got, we got, we got s
we got. We just laugh and went to town.
Speaker 3 (44:13):
It was done, eat too much money, beautiful, like a
forty five minute wait because it was such.
Speaker 2 (44:20):
A terrible evening, was very hungry. It took a very
long time. And then I knock at the door. It's
three am.
Speaker 3 (44:32):
I hadn't updated my address on uber eats and they
took the.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
It was like nine o'clock and you had to go.
Speaker 3 (44:48):
We had to put shoes on and jacket on.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
Get your I had to uber uber. Yeah, was it
sitting there?
Speaker 3 (44:56):
Uber eating?
Speaker 2 (44:57):
Uber eats was sitting there. They sent me the photo.
No one's homemade, No one's home. You have moved, Thank goodness.
The new residents weren't there.
Speaker 3 (45:07):
And then we get back. Where's the microwave?
Speaker 2 (45:10):
I want to warm some of this? Oh no, no,
just having cold cold. That's how you move. That's the reality.
Speaker 3 (45:20):
Sick of movies lying.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Do you know what? A girlfriend of mine who I
think you might also know, got someone's uber eats order
delivered to her by mistake. It was similar thing. It
was very late at night, and she was like, oh
my goodness, this is crazy. But what am I going
to do. I'll just open it and see what it is.
(45:45):
And I think it was pancakes and she was like,
this is amazing. No, it was late, so obviously someone
had ordered for dessert, waffles or pancakes. It was something
deserty delicious. So she went, actually, this is a victimless crime.
There's no one around here. She knows the name, but
she goes, they haven't ordered it. She opened the bag,
(46:08):
she was home with the baby. She opened the bag,
she took the waffles out, she put them on a plate.
She's like, I can't resist. She was just about to attacking.
In fact, I think she had forked a bit of
one of the waffles when there was a knock at
the door and there are two girls there. This is
hum There are two girls there, who went did you
(46:28):
get out ubery? Oh my goodness. She was mortified, and
she said she even wanted to lie, but she realized
from the front door they could see through to the
kitchen bench behind Miss Piggy. She said she more embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (46:54):
I would have said I also ordered this exact thing.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Yeah, she I think it all it went or went
through her mind. And she was like, but it was
not going to be good for you anyway, because it
would have been hot. It should have been hot, and
it's cold anyway. All I'm saying is you're lucky that
the new residents had not arrived in your old house
so that your vietnameas feast was waiting for you. Also, congratulations,
(47:19):
thank you. I will say the two happiest years of
my life I lived in was when I lived in
Italy and we had a landlord again and when something
broke we could just call him.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Do you know what I said twice today as a
