Speaker 3 (03:21):
We're not the one around the corner from my house.
Eight am open time. No, I know they deserve nothing
getting up at seven fifty.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Hang on, Cody, here are away right now?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Is away. That's why I'm at the cafe every day.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
He is six dollar cappuccino, long mac long mad Yeah,
double s dollars for a long man.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Huh, it's double. It's a double shot.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's a double shot. But there's hardly any milk.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Now, I think you're paying for the coffee.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I think you're paying for the milk.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
My friend, Well it's what Oh yeah, it's two shots. Yeah,
a dash of milk.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Do you know I read a terrible thing ironically, and
this is shameful. I read it in Starbucks in Thailand,
and it was years ago when the some Thai coffee
farmers were trying to have a strike to up the price.
That Starbucks paid them, and I have never forgotten how
(04:17):
much they get paid a kilo for their coffee.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I don't know if this means you're going to go
up or down if you're shocked.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Or okay, shocked much way. If you go to a
fancy coffee place, right and you buy a kilo of beans,
what would you expect to pay.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
As a consumer? As the person the counter cody does
buy them? I don't pay attention.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
He doesn't know. Sash Nos say twenty dollars, yeah, forty
to sixty. Okay, if you're at Alda, you can do
twenty bucks a kilo. How they're doing that?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You know you love an elder drop.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Guess what farmers? Guess what the farmers getting paid for
the farmer farma? Six bucks to twenty.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Unheard of, that's not a bar.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
They were having a fight with Starbucks because they wanted
to get paid more per kilo than Starbucks charges for
one drink, one drink drink? Isn't it unbelievable? And then
I thought, you know, I'm always thinking I'm with it
too much, thinking, no, not at all, too much, thinking
(05:26):
sometimes too much.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
To be fair. Sometimes I don't think there's enough.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And you'll be right. You both right, you're both right.
But wouldn't it be good in the supermarket if they
had the price they paid the farmer for what you're
about to buy?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Very easy running for you're running for parlor.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Easy to do. So you've got mandarins, they're three dollars
ninety kid? What did you pay the farmer?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
This is good, This is good stuff. This happened a
few years ago with milk. Remember there was a big
up or about what our big supermarkets are paying the cows,
and it wasn't enough.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
I never understood that. I never understood what I was
the home brands, the ninety nine Saint milk.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I don't understand either.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I don't understand. But we love our farming.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Oh three forty five.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I mean we don't mean give it up. Don't give
it up.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Please, we need you plowing our lovely far But why
did you ask? Because I go late late risers? Hang on,
Oh that's right. I don't want to bring up something
with you straight away? A giggle, A giggle. First about
our friend Kate. We've we've gone to every week. We
are finding new ways to be even more intimate with
(06:40):
each other in our relationship mostly pushed by you.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Oh you're really looking in the eye.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Fine, this is a new one for me. Maybe you're
used to this. Today you sent a picture to Sash
and I of chewed food. I mean, I'm happy that,
I'm happy for the text chewed food.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I have to explain.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I don't want a picture of food.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I'm very sensitive to food.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Because you well, let me read the joke. Maybe laugh
so much. Why are you taking in front of chewed food?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I was demonstrating.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
A point unrelated but having lunch in comes the pick
a plate of chewed chicken. Start back out onto the plate.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
The whole plate. There was only one little bit of chewed.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
THEBS bought some ironically named chicken tenderloin to crumb for
a stunning sandwich. Toughest thing, absolutely worth a pick.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'm really sorry. It was unrelated to anything that we've
been saying.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It came out of no one but.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
The irony of have been called a tinder. I mean, yeah,
I should sell chicken tough loins.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
All play. By the way. I like that plate. You
got beautiful plate, china, china.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
No, no, we've got nothing matches. Okay, that's you know
when I'm much like I am with you too. When
I see cleaning something that I think is odd but charming,
I pick it up. I take it home with me.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
You know what those places, That's what I've done with
you too, Which one is the bit that you can't
chew that you have to split back out.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
You're part of my collection of chipped and cracked china too,
that I take through life with me.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
That plate of yours and sash. We'll put it on
the Instagram, of course we will. We always do.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Food in the show notes.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
No, well, people, No, that's shameful to show people something
that's been in my mouth that I spat out. I
only bought it, hurtful. I only got the tough loins
because Artie, my number three, was home, and I know
(09:03):
that he loves a schnitty sandwich.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Can I say this to you? I want this more.
In my wife making lunch lunch suck.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
It's really annoying. My lunch.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
I never make lunch. It's just lunch is just desperate.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
But see, I don't have breakfast.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I'll have breakfast.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Lunch is my dinner dinner.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
So you're cool, so you don't eat in the morning.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I didn't have a morning. I'm so hungry and I
wouldn't normally have that. You know what, I would normally
have a steak. I've just been you know, we got
the order from the farmer. Farmers again, Hello Michelle and Simon.
I don't think they listen to the bar busy. They
should be listening farmers. They should play this to the cows.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
The cows will love it.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Anyway. I got a delivery, so we're chocol block full
of meat, and Peter said. I came home and Lewis
was cooking a steak. I'm like, yeah, why not, Peter.
But they've all got the prices on them. I wish
they wouldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
That's weird.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Well, because they pack them by it in the house. Yeah,
he's got it. He gets his own butcher. Yeah, he
does his own butchery and then they weigh them up.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I would say, I've never had a steak for lunch.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
It's a dinner for Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I've never thought to myself at one o'clock in the
harvo you know, I could do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, steak. I could do a steak. Think about remember
the olden days in this country? No, I don't remember
I wasn't there, but you would have heard about it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Tell me about it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Okay, they used to have steak and eggs for breakfast.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yum, they had steak and eggs.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Eight. What was going on in this once great nation
that they could afford that they could afford steak and
eggs for breakfast? Working men? I don't know if working
women had that. I don't think there were many working
women one wage they could afford steak and eggs.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Hell, it's a very good question. I think it's time
we brought back our friend from the radio stage.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Back, Sash, bring him back. So la she she's not
even paying it.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's been so long. Hello, their governor wanted some steak
and one steak and eggs please? Why is the governor there?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
But also you've left out the crucial path for breakfast
for breakfast.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yes, do it again?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Hang on, here we go, Here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Governor again. Hello there, governor, steak.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Steak. I'm loving it.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I've crumbled under pressure.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
It really has well. He can't do it.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
One more time, Slash, this would be the I won't
look at you. Hello there, governor, steak and eggs for
breakfast please? Oh yeah, oh we've no. You know, A
core memory of my childhood is on the old occasion
that Lenny went out on a Friday or a Saturday
with the girls and it was Giuseppe's turtle cook. Well
(12:10):
this is the core memory, not not the most adventurous cook.
Lennie's out with the girls from the Touch Shop. Of
course she was in the Touch Shop.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Group, of course she was. Were they actually cooking in
the Touch Shop? No, just a lot of buttering roles.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
No, No, a lot of just the cooking, the lasagnias
and the pies.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Heating, heating them up for the brown surely buttering a roll,
fory poles, lolly sandwich.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
No, not at my school. No, this was for the
lunch order.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah yeah, no, couldn't get a roll?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
No, no way, it was all of that.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Do you foind that weird? Sad?
Speaker 3 (12:48):
No, primary school had salad sandwiches on the menu.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
I don't know, kid's gonna go, Yes, please extra bu
But it's not the keys, isn't it the pair?
Speaker 3 (13:00):
No, it was lunch orders to be on lunch Fridays only.
School pies, sausage, rolls, donutsms. Now what sushi is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Sushi? They did it at our school only on a Friday,
and it was Fridays, and because there was no other
touch shop any other day, we were like, please, can
we have one day where we don't have to make
lunch for four people? But it was so bad, was bad.
So she was so bad that even children knew it
was bad. Japanese children, that's bad. I just knew what
(13:38):
was bad. It was so exciting though.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
In the morning you get little yeah on.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
The bag or text online, then all the oil to
the portal and then online passway.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Two factor authentication. A random mum would walk into the
classroom and have a little box of all those kids
orders for the day.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
You know what I feel. Someone's triggered. Got tuch sharp?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Oh sorry, that was me.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Oh literally could tell me.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Because you thought you could get salad sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
We never got touch shot.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
You or your school. No.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
No, Me and John Paul, my brother, Me and my brother,
we never got touch shot. I think there was an
arrangement where we get it once a week, and that arrangement,
like a pie crust, was swiftly broken.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Got there so the Giuseppe memory, yes I have, he
would make us young children steak sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You couldn't chew it.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Toast the bread too, toast the bread, and so I
have just I was even telling Cody the other day
memories of being very young and just cutting the inside
of my I couldn't chew it.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
No, you couldn't chew it. You couldn't even make your
way through. And steak but stunning. I'd love a Giuseppe
steak sandwich.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
That's a study Duddies on dinner duty when the four
kids are getting a steak Sanger.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I love him, well, yeah, I love him. I'm amazed
Lynn didn't leave something for him to make. I think
often by the time she was going out with the
Touch Shop lady, she was a bit annoyed and she
was like, well, you can fend for yourself.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
I remember one day me and my brother and I
think maybe all four of us, or maybe it was
just two of us, had a fight to end or
it was so big, probably physical, me my brother going
at it. Oh really, and then Lynn great moves goes
that's it, I'm done, I'm leaving. I'm out of here
(15:47):
for yourself, grabbed the whole kit and kibudo. I was
very young. I remember this, and then she got in
the car and she left in the trago and she left.
I was beside myself. Came home a half an hour
later with the groceries. Oh, she got me.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Were you still upset? Did you cry when she.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Came home and started fighting again?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
How was your.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Brother with what?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
When about Lynn leaving?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
He didn't care?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
He was older, he didn't care. He didn't care. Michael,
do you think he pretended not to care.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I don't know. I think about it.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I just remember the have you ever done the fake
leave to the kids, I'm out of here, She'll just
go to the shore.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Look, I did genuine leave about fifteen years ago. I
have really haven't seen them for a while. I believe
they're doing quite well. No, but I have I fantasized
about it often. I think every mother has you fantasized
about it. Every mother fantasizes about it, the fake leave,
and then really like or you if you have to
(16:50):
leave at some time of intense, you know, high passions
in the house, high passions, often your low energy. I
would and think to myself, what would happen if I
just didn't come back, if I just kept driving, just
kept driving? They call this Sydney Road.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
What if I just go to Sydney.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Does it go to Sydney?
Speaker 3 (17:11):
I think Sydney Road, Melbourne, go to Sydney. Does it
connects to the you?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
It does? It makes it anyway, It's the subject of fantasy.
But now I have a similar fantasy. Let's talk about
three ways more on the we talked about the mighty
newle the Inland.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Did not the bruce the other one?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Stop trying to bruce the other one? I know? Okay,
So I've had a hideous revelation. This has really been
a pattern for me on the buck up. And you
know what, most people would be demoralized to find out
how little they're liked, but not me. I take it
as a as a teachable moment and I can work
(17:56):
on myself.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
What if someone hates her guards, it's a teachable moment.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Okay, I don't know I would. I don't know that
i'd say hate my guys. I think that's going to bied.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Obviously you're not reading what I'm reading.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Anyway. So my daughter's having her twenty first.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Huh, which I cannot come to. She invited me. And
you don't like the alliance?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
No, no, I don't like the alliance, but I'm happy
for her to invite you. Okay, So here's the problem.
She sent out an invitation and we don't really know
who she sent out the invitation too. And that's a
problem because on the invitation, which I've seen, I got
sent one. Well that's good, it says arrive at five
(18:41):
thirty on a Friday. Oh dear, yep. Yeah. So straight
away it turns out my husband is at a teacher's.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Conference inverted commas folks.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Down the beach. I think they can hear the egg.
They can hear the ag nottes.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And he doesn't get back till four p thirty or
five on the friday. She's got people arriving at five thirty. Anyway,
I'm doing the cooking.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Oh you're you are. There's been four I we're going
to get You're going to get your son. Yeah, now
it's you. She doesn't want Lewis to cook steak sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I well, I'd love to do that, but I had
trouble understanding what she wanted. So we always have the
same thing when we have a family party and everyone
brings this their specialties and we will look forward to it.
We all know what we're getting. I'm doing a glazed ham,
I'm doing potatoes salad. I'm doing cold so I'm doing
potatoes yum. My sister in law Bee his tie, is
(19:40):
making green curried chicken. My mother in law Marie is
making Passion for its sponge, her famous cheese dip which
is served with chips. And she's making sausage rolls.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
This is a good line up.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
My sister in law Karen's making sausage rolls.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Tick tick tick.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
So Sunday said, I don't want any of that normal
family food.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Fair enough, Okay, twenty first, he's what you're getting rid
of straight away. I can tell you you can. Salad's off.
Yeah right, bye bye. See the twenty one. They're gonna
be maggeted by quarter past six. There's gonna be chicks
spieled in your front.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Garden, in the pool up stairs which Peter cleaned on
the weekend.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Come on, like, get rid of your salaries.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Okay, yes, bye bye. They know what she does, even
though I love it.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
No one's eating a curry at a twenty first.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You say a curry, yeah, well, well yeah bye bye
bye bye.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Any No twenty one year old rocking. Oh yes, please.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Give me that bowl for Beata. Okay, So this is
the disconnect between the family that she's invited all of apparently,
all that family that's like forty people. And I'll tell
you one thing about the Lewises.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
They can eat.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
They're hungry, they're hungry. They turn up question and they
leave full question. If they're not four, they ain't leaving.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Why else would you go to something? Yeah, correct, especially
if your family.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So it turns out what she wants is for things
to be demure.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Oh okay, let me guess. Finger food.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, finger foods.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Like small and crispy clean.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I think, so, yeah, I don't really have that in
my repertoire.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
What effort, I don't have it.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And then my girlfriend, Alice, who's also Sunday's godmother, said
to me, you don't understand. For the next week, you
have to try to be a completely different person.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Good luck, That's what she said to me.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
She said, anything that you are going to say, don't
say it, she said, because nobody wants to hear what
you're going to say.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Then you want to make don't make it.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Make it. She said, do you need to be a
completely different person. You need to be the opposite of
what you are. I don't even know where to begin.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Can't you just sometimes in life I say this about
many things. Yes, there are things that are just worth
spending money on. No, this is one of them.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Correct, just out sauce, idiot?
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I did I think out sauce?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
We couldn't now. And then we looked at a venue.
We thought we were going to use that venue. Then
it turned out the venue only has a capacity.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Of twenty five Where was it a cost?
Speaker 2 (22:41):
She found it? She found it a venue for twenty
five people. Very small, intimate farm.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Very small.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Anyway, that's how it ended up at our house. Now
we don't have we need someone to make cocktails. We don't.
I'm happy to pay someone.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
But who is that you can get? I've been a
few weddings with this they bring. It's like a cart.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Who are they?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
They? What I've seen her weddings. I've seen an espresso
my teeny cart?
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yeah right, she wants that was she wants a lemon cello? Okay, sprits,
yeah cart.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
There's one of them. Sure.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Just just suffice it to say that Katie, who's got
very far in life with this personality you have suddenly
has been told this personality no longer serves her. Can
you please change everything everything that you're If you're going
to say something, don't say it unless you're going to
(23:38):
say the opposite.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Isn't this are you describing in a nutshell being a parent?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Well it's never not so much with the boys, okay,
not so much with the boys. Did you know what
the boys if? My friend Noddy said, I if it
was if it was going to be a boys twenty
First you just bring out the glazed ham, he goes you.
You just slice it, chuck out some bread rolls and
they'd be as happy as anything.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I'd be happy with the bread rolls. Its.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Girls are not like that. Girls are We're daily cut creatures,
except for mothers who are forced to be work horses.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
What's the cake?
Speaker 2 (24:15):
No, she doesn't want a cake, I said, I don't
want to make her a butterfly cake with pools around
the wing.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Well, do you want to be bullied for the rest
of her life by her friends?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I thought, that's eight.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Cupcakes. We had cupcakes instead of a wedding cake. Everyone
was very happy with that. Do that. No, I'm going
to say no. To a cupcake. Okay, don't be like this.
I needed to be who you are for this pod.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I mean sound effects some godo.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Oh another question? There speeches yes, speech to who who?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Okay, so apparently that guy who I'm not allowed to mention.
So I won't mention him because I'm normally it's not invited.
Which is I find strange? Is she embarrassed about us?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
She?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Who's She's say to Peter, I'm just one thing I
want you to do. Fix that hole in the ceiling.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I don't care who you are on planet Earth. Yeah,
your kids are going to be embarrassed by you if
you're their parents. That's how it was.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Do you know what? Partly I'm calm. We should just
get go there, say happy birthday, and then leave.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's a big day if you invite. I'm not saying
Sunday is doing this, but if you are to have
a birthday when you've been twenty first, thirtieth and it's
your first time, people are meeting the person you might
be possibly dating, too big of a day.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I know it's too much. I don't I don't disagree. Invite.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
You cannot bring someone for the first time to Christmas
don't you think you can't. You've got to do something
like small as go.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Okay, I present to you a witness for the prosecution.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Peter's older brother, Paul, mm hmm. Peter, Paul and Mark
I was working in my head and Sue their sister. Anyway,
Paul has been on a jag of dating. He's very
popular on the apps, and he said to his mother
(26:40):
I can get them, I just can't keep them.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
By choice or well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
At one point he was having a drink in our street.
Peter came home and said, because who I just wrote on.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
The street on the street.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
No, but in a courtyard with only a paling fence
between him and the street, with some German.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Does everyone in your family catch people on dates.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
In our street?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Here?
Speaker 3 (27:07):
It's home one of who leaves the house you catch
someone on a date.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
He lives forty minutes away, and we caught him in
our streets.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
Anyway, what venues on your street?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
No, it was that he was at the German woman's house,
having a glass of wine in the backyard into cortills
in the courtyard.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Right.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Anyways, about that story, that are very odd to me.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
She broke up with him, so we don't need to
worry about her. But okay, so he texts.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
His brother at any point and go hey, I'm in
your street.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Yes he did.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Oh okay, yeah, well that makes more sense.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
All right, Peter said. When he got the message, he went,
he must be on a date moment. Did you think that?
But he said, what else? Our street and not at.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Our house anyway, it's not to park.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Okay, So get a load of this. I'm going to
far this under I for insanity. And I've told him
this so he knows this. So Peter's mum has got
a huge family, or it might have been the Lewis
side of the family. And when I say huge, it's
like seventy cousins and they're all in their seventies and
eighties now and they've all had kids and blah blah blah.
(28:14):
So when they have a family reunion, it's a big deal. Right.
This was a Lewis family reunion. They did it in
a park because there's too many of them to be inside.
Guess who Paul took Peter's brother, the German woman, No,
the new one he's been dating for two weeks to
(28:34):
a family reunion.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
No, you can't do that. Isn't that shocked? She was stoked.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
I've been stoked.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
She would have been texting her friends going, how amazing
this weird.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I don't think it would have been anyone. He's taken
me into a family reunion park. I don't think a park.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Episode.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
I don't think anyone's stoked by that. Anyway. It's obviously
worked well because we've got an invitation to his birthday
party and it's from both of them.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Oh, she's on the invites now.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
And they've only been going out for like two months around.
I said to Maroa, though my mother in law, Well,
I don't know how old she is. He Yeah, but
he's a grown up man.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Yeah, what's up?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I think that's rude to us. He's older than Peter,
and Peter's fiddy.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Okay, there we go. Maybe that's not even about whist
too short, get amongst it were day. We're happy he's
one hundred and seventy five of my family members.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
But normally you're going, oh, hello, uncle Clem, I haven't
seen you far whatever, And then you go, oh and
meet this woman I've known for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah, fair enough, very straight. You know, my mom's side
is so big that many years ago we wanted a
big family photo and the family is so big we
had to get to it. We had to hire a
park and build scaffold them for the photo. True stories
never forgotten.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Now you know what that was. And then pre drone,
pre dry, it was pre dream dry Drone would have
your sword it.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I was a teenager and to get all of us,
just mum and just Mum's siblings. Yeah, they're families, are
that because she's got eight she's one of ten ten
that involved scaffolding. And my uncle Trev couldn't come. Hello,
Uncle Trev. We knew Uncle Trev on this pod priest.
The priest couldn't come, so they superimposed him into the picture.
And this was like fifteen twenty years ago. And it's
(30:29):
not a good that's not done well did that because
it's so tall?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Always the one that did that?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Not too sure, but this was many years to.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Be superimposing fifteen years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I'm going to try and find the photo that would.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Have been a very dark art.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I'm going to try and find the photo.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You've got to find it. Show notes along with my chi.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
To food scaffolding okay to have an awkward question to ask,
but I know you'll be honest with me because my
husban is so lovely and kind that he never tells
me the truth about me.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
What is it about you?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well, here's the question. Can you please be honest with me?
Speaker 2 (31:10):
You know nothing gives me more pleasure than to be honest,
even though I don't do it out of cruelty.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
But all you need to tell me if I'm going
through some weird early midlife crisis because of this one.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yes, you are. We've already worked established that there's been
a recurring theme of the buck up this highly venerated podcast.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Give me three two points of evidence about that because
I'm wearing my hair floppy.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
You get scammed all the time.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Yeah, that's not midlife crisis.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
It's totally midlife crisis.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Is it scammed?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Would you talk to my four kids? Not one of
them has been scammed and they've got life yawning in
front of them, full of possible.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
I thought a mid life crisis was your actions and
your behavior that you're putting out into the world and
getting sam not things that happened to you.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
I think it's do you know what I think one
begets the other. You think, yeah, okay, yeah. You know
a lot of women are depressed. You know, they talk
about becoming invisible, and the reason they are depressed about
that is because the world has treated them like they're invisible.
They don't wake up one day and go, oh my goodness,
I'm invisible. Things happen that lead them to realize that
(32:22):
the world that is how the world sees them all,
In fact, no longer sees.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
I want to be seen and heard. Yeah. I have
a weird sketched history with piercings. It's just I don't
know why. Okay, cool got so many failed ones. Oh okay.
One of my big ones was when I was seventeen,
I wanted to be a rebel.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Eyebrow tongue. Tongue got my tongue pierced when I was seven,
and all you hear when people talk with.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Clicking hitting the teeth. Went down a Greensboro plaza with
my cousin. Didn't ask Mum or Dad, Oh no, straight,
I wouldn't to the piercing place. It cost back then.
I think it was like sixty bus.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, always an expensive one. That tongue got my.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Tongue pierced and it was excruciating.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
How did they do it with a clamp?
Speaker 3 (33:19):
And then they put a cup of ice neck in
your hand because then straight away you got to like
tongue the ice and then they it's like a big pole,
like a rod that goes up. Yeah, so did that?
Then I got my ears two in one ear.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Hang on, what happened when you came home?
Speaker 3 (33:33):
You know what it was?
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Tongue.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I was just like I was a little ship from
the ages of like fifteen to eighteen nineteen. I was awful.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Yeah, you said that it was awful. Some would say
just change chop dad. Okay, yeah, you don't get it. Yeah,
I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Then what of that slam indoors? Yeah, you know, I'm
running away. Go down to the park for fifteen minutes.
I want to get both my ears pierced. And Cody,
the way he's looked at me when I've said it,
I think he thinks I'm going through a midlife crisis, Kate.
I want to get there and their two little black
(34:12):
earrings go. Be honest, this is why I love our friendship.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Here we go, folks, Okay, you're not going to put
those spaces in your ears, are you No? Okay? That
is just and I'm really down with people's I love
people's choices. Get as many sticks you want, whatever, all those.
I can't stop staring those. When you meet someone that
you're staring into that what a part that you shouldn't
(34:44):
be able to see, which is the inside of anyway, whatever.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
You can see through the hoops.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
I think I think you'd look like and this might
be a look that you like. You'd look like a
nineteen eighties Berlin rent boy. Okay, I'm okay, And that
might be.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
The nineteen eighties Berlin rent boy.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
You would look like you should always be wearing a
backpack and roller blades. Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Yeah, and maybe you'd blade, maybe that blade. Yeah, yeah,
it's a hard no from my podcast.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
Well no, not no, that might be the look that
you're going for. I love someone who's got a distinct
laws and sound like. But that's what that's what you
will be projecting to the world, do you know what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Well, you're gonna look like this, and I love it.
You're gonna but I love it.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
That's what you would look like. You would look like.
Is that a no?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
That's from you? To no.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
No, it's not a no, it's absolutely no. It's not
a no.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Second question, Okay, let's move on from the EARI okay,
Is it a sign that I'm going through something that
I even want that?
Speaker 2 (35:57):
No? I don't think so. No, you just want to.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Not like what if they're white or silver? When you
say white, little little like a little stud like a
little like a little diamond.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I don't know how to say this in a without
sounding pejorative. We all know that you're gay, and never
stopped you before. You're gay. But that's a very gay look.
Do you know what I mean? It's a very gay look. Now,
if you're suddenly wanting to have a very gay love,
(36:31):
whatever your voice goes very it's just a gay look.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
It's very gay.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
You might suddenly want to be a gay.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
It's actually not just very gay, it's also quite What's
what I'm trying to look for?
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Ethnic?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
I see a lot of see a little I see
a lot of guys with the double earring, and they
are of a certain background. Often would you.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Get but I like a guy with PCs. I'm not
anti PC.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
It's the boat and I think the black.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Definitely not Okay, it's dirty, all right. So we're saying no,
I don't want black marks on your ear.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
So we're saying no to that.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
To know, but pierced fine.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
I can still do these two in my ear.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Oh well, why don't you do that? Because that was
such a mother response. Is there any piercings on your kids,
Lewis is pierced Ea? Yeah, one or two.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Wow, totally gets blackheads. That landed with a thud. That's
one of the biggest.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
That's one of the that's.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
One of the loudest thuds I've ever heard on this pod. No,
I don't think I asked for your fee.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
No, I tell you why. I just sat up the
look would be and you didn't. You're the one that
was judgmental about that look. Some people would be like, yeah,
a nineteen eighties Berlin Rent Boys was the best known
for said good looks horribly. So people who are totally
(38:02):
I'm not mad at you.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I'm happy with having this. I asked this of you,
and we've landed on a very solid no. But do
you know what I'm not against what just getting it
and just having a look.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Get it and have a look out.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
It's fine.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
It's like piercings are nothing, although with my ill fated ones,
so my girlfriend's still got a scar taking me through
your body where you're okay, So twice on the nose.
The ears are all fine. I've still got two on
my left ear, never an issue, and two failed ones
(38:41):
terribly failed on my belly button I really wanted.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Now they got infected.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
I don't have a belly button. You know, the girls
who who have a belly button for showing are the
real hour glass girls, and they'd always wear the low gene,
have a crop top and then have some gorgeous you
know me. I had a fantasy that I'd have some
dim monte thing just hanging there, hanging like cute. You
(39:10):
should say what this is pointing too? Write that right?
And instead what I got was, I don't know if
you're a baker, but when you're making dough and you
have to punch it down and then it rises and
you just poke a finger in there to see and
if your finger leaves an imprint, your dough's pretty good
(39:33):
to go. That's what I have for a belly button.
Pre bread, yeah, pre bread. And so my jeans rubbed
on it and then I was in balley on a
holiday with a girlfriend and I was getting this is
so terrible.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
She said, you've got to have this treatment. You've got
to have this treatment. It involved tumoric and yogurt all
over the body. But you know how the balain Is
have to grow their fingernails. Their little fingernail I was long.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
I do not know this.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
It's an Asian thing. A lot of Asian as well
help around the house. I think it's for poking, for cleaning, cleaning,
I think so, maybe that's not.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
It's not the dumbest thing I've heard, I know.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
But they often all have it, like Asian guys will
often have long their little fingers, long nails. Anyway, this
woman had long fingers and her fingernail caught in my
belly button. The second time I got it done, I
got it done with a sleeper, not a stud, because
we thought the sleeper might take better. And it ripped
(40:37):
and then it got infected. It was so repulsive that
the Russian woman I used to go to to get
my eyebrows done quarterized with the soldering iron and I
literally smelt burning flesh. Luba. She saved my life.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
I can't keep up with that story. It was whipwash.
It's a text from text from mom before it also
before text from.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Haven't even money back guarantee off your.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Pop unlike unlike your piercings. Yeah, they will make people
feel better at the end than they did at the start.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
That's what this podcast does.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
You just asked me. YEA did it?
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Oh my god, that's the money back guarantee for getting
your money back.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Oh my god. If people don't like our poor they
say it got infected.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
But infection is great. Now you're virus. Oh my god,
I can't get rid of it up. It's like toenail fungus.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
Yes, please spread us to your friends, infect them with

only text from before text from um. I also love
things that are embarrassing that shouldn't be Yes, yes, a
few of them coming through, just one very quickly.
Speaker 2 (42:10):
Clint, Hello, Clint, Clint, Clint, Clint, Hello, Clint.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
You don't want to say that name wrong, do you?
Speaker 2 (42:20):

I two close together. It's a sort yeah, yeah we are.
We're in trouble, uh, he says to us.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
Firstly, every episode is a side quest salad, but the
tequila episode is something else. Oh no, he's got a point. Yes,
thank you, Clint l I n T. And something that
is embarrassing that shouldn't be. And this is for the
boys listening because it's so true. As a man walking
through a department store and having to walk through the
women's underwear section to get to the area you need. Ah,
(42:51):
we all do it.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
We do this little hustle, embarrassing little hustle and look
ahead at your feet.
Speaker 3 (43:01):
You kind of want to yell out, I'm going to fragrance.
Speaker 2 (43:05):
You always yeah, right, Like when I asked my husband
to order me a shandy at a pub, he always
goes up to the bar. I know that he does this,
and he turns back and goes with a shandy, wasn't
it because he's so intent on letting the barm and
know that it's not for him. I do that when
you do that walking through.
Speaker 3 (43:25):
But I do that. I do that with beer because
I always get the order wrong because I don't drink
any of that. So when I'm getting beers for people,
I just say to them I think I'm getting I'm
always doing that, but in the opposite Yeah, to help me,
you should be ordering a shandy. And while we're out.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
There, very much a drink for you guys with peas.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
And while we're on this, Clint, I don't know why
I said it like that because I agree with him.
Speaker 2 (43:51):
Cleentive towards clan Clint.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Yeah, they need to be more obvious where you are
in these department stores. When you're trying to find what
Florida go to. It never says you are here.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
They don't hear enough. They don't want you to. They
want you to wander around like here in Will's Having
Eaten your Horse.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Charlie Men's level three.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
What level am I on? Yes? Yes, never tell you, yes, Yes.

I need a huge big red circles. You're here, you
tell me where I am. Department stores. I've got to
get to the women's department and sniff the Andes text.
Speaker 2 (44:26):
From all right. This is in fact a text from Dad.
And it wasn't just a text, it was an audio message.
And you know how it converts.
Speaker 3 (44:42):
Yes, that's happening so much new text voice to text.
It also gives your voicemails now as a text do
you want to hear?
Speaker 2 (44:50):
What do you want to hear? First? What he meant
to say? Oh, yes to his daughter, and this is
what he meant to say. Ah, if only I could read,
I'd give you a good clip across the years, good morning,

clip across the love it love adorable. But what she
(45:11):
got from her father was I knew Rachel cook your
coffee is good morning, how are you have a good day?

Speaker 2 (02:26):
But nothing good happens at that time. When you drive

Speaker 3 (03:21):
We're not the one around the corner from my house.
Eight am open time. No, I know they deserve nothing
getting up at seven fifty.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Hang on, Cody, here are away right now?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Is away. That's why I'm at the cafe every day.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
He is six dollar cappuccino, long mac long mad Yeah,
double s dollars for a long man.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Huh, it's double. It's a double shot.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's a double shot. But there's hardly any milk.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Now, I think you're paying for the coffee.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I think you're paying for the milk.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
My friend, Well it's what Oh yeah, it's two shots. Yeah,
a dash of milk.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Do you know I read a terrible thing ironically, and
this is shameful. I read it in Starbucks in Thailand,
and it was years ago when the some Thai coffee
farmers were trying to have a strike to up the price.
That Starbucks paid them, and I have never forgotten how
(04:17):
much they get paid a kilo for their coffee.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I don't know if this means you're going to go
up or down if you're shocked.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Or okay, shocked much way. If you go to a
fancy coffee place, right and you buy a kilo of beans,
what would you expect to pay.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
As a consumer? As the person the counter cody does
buy them? I don't pay attention.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
He doesn't know. Sash Nos say twenty dollars, yeah, forty
to sixty. Okay, if you're at Alda, you can do
twenty bucks a kilo. How they're doing that?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You know you love an elder drop.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Guess what farmers? Guess what the farmers getting paid for
the farmer farma? Six bucks to twenty.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Unheard of, that's not a bar.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
They were having a fight with Starbucks because they wanted
to get paid more per kilo than Starbucks charges for
one drink, one drink drink? Isn't it unbelievable? And then
I thought, you know, I'm always thinking I'm with it
too much, thinking, no, not at all, too much, thinking
(05:26):
sometimes too much.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
To be fair. Sometimes I don't think there's enough.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And you'll be right. You both right, you're both right.
But wouldn't it be good in the supermarket if they
had the price they paid the farmer for what you're
about to buy?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Very easy running for you're running for parlor.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Easy to do. So you've got mandarins, they're three dollars
ninety kid? What did you pay the farmer?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
This is good, This is good stuff. This happened a
few years ago with milk. Remember there was a big
up or about what our big supermarkets are paying the cows,
and it wasn't enough.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
I never understood that. I never understood what I was
the home brands, the ninety nine Saint milk.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I don't understand either.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I don't understand. But we love our farming.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Oh three forty five.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I mean we don't mean give it up. Don't give
it up.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Please, we need you plowing our lovely far But why
did you ask? Because I go late late risers? Hang on,
Oh that's right. I don't want to bring up something
with you straight away? A giggle, A giggle. First about
our friend Kate. We've we've gone to every week. We
are finding new ways to be even more intimate with
(06:40):
each other in our relationship mostly pushed by you.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Oh you're really looking in the eye.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Fine, this is a new one for me. Maybe you're
used to this. Today you sent a picture to Sash
and I of chewed food. I mean, I'm happy that,
I'm happy for the text chewed food.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I have to explain.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I don't want a picture of food.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I'm very sensitive to food.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Because you well, let me read the joke. Maybe laugh
so much. Why are you taking in front of chewed food?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I was demonstrating.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
A point unrelated but having lunch in comes the pick
a plate of chewed chicken. Start back out onto the plate.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
The whole plate. There was only one little bit of chewed.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
THEBS bought some ironically named chicken tenderloin to crumb for
a stunning sandwich. Toughest thing, absolutely worth a pick.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'm really sorry. It was unrelated to anything that we've
been saying.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It came out of no one but.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
The irony of have been called a tinder. I mean, yeah,
I should sell chicken tough loins.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
All play. By the way. I like that plate. You
got beautiful plate, china, china.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
No, no, we've got nothing matches. Okay, that's you know
when I'm much like I am with you too. When
I see cleaning something that I think is odd but charming,
I pick it up. I take it home with me.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
You know what those places, That's what I've done with
you too, Which one is the bit that you can't
chew that you have to split back out.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
You're part of my collection of chipped and cracked china too,
that I take through life with me.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
That plate of yours and sash. We'll put it on
the Instagram, of course we will. We always do.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Food in the show notes.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
No, well, people, No, that's shameful to show people something
that's been in my mouth that I spat out. I
only bought it, hurtful. I only got the tough loins
because Artie, my number three, was home, and I know
(09:03):
that he loves a schnitty sandwich.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Can I say this to you? I want this more.
In my wife making lunch lunch suck.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
It's really annoying. My lunch.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
I never make lunch. It's just lunch is just desperate.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
But see, I don't have breakfast.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I'll have breakfast.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Lunch is my dinner dinner.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
So you're cool, so you don't eat in the morning.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I didn't have a morning. I'm so hungry and I
wouldn't normally have that. You know what, I would normally
have a steak. I've just been you know, we got
the order from the farmer. Farmers again, Hello Michelle and Simon.
I don't think they listen to the bar busy. They
should be listening farmers. They should play this to the cows.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
The cows will love it.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Anyway. I got a delivery, so we're chocol block full
of meat, and Peter said. I came home and Lewis
was cooking a steak. I'm like, yeah, why not, Peter.
But they've all got the prices on them. I wish
they wouldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
That's weird.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Well, because they pack them by it in the house. Yeah,
he's got it. He gets his own butcher. Yeah, he
does his own butchery and then they weigh them up.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I would say, I've never had a steak for lunch.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
It's a dinner for Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I've never thought to myself at one o'clock in the
harvo you know, I could do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, steak. I could do a steak. Think about remember
the olden days in this country? No, I don't remember
I wasn't there, but you would have heard about it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Tell me about it.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Okay, they used to have steak and eggs for breakfast.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yum, they had steak and eggs.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Eight. What was going on in this once great nation
that they could afford that they could afford steak and
eggs for breakfast? Working men? I don't know if working
women had that. I don't think there were many working
women one wage they could afford steak and eggs.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Hell, it's a very good question. I think it's time
we brought back our friend from the radio stage.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Back, Sash, bring him back. So la she she's not
even paying it.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's been so long. Hello, their governor wanted some steak
and one steak and eggs please? Why is the governor there?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
But also you've left out the crucial path for breakfast
for breakfast.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yes, do it again?
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Hang on, here we go, Here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Governor again. Hello there, governor, steak.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Steak. I'm loving it.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I've crumbled under pressure.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
It really has well. He can't do it.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
One more time, Slash, this would be the I won't
look at you. Hello there, governor, steak and eggs for
breakfast please? Oh yeah, oh we've no. You know, A
core memory of my childhood is on the old occasion
that Lenny went out on a Friday or a Saturday
with the girls and it was Giuseppe's turtle cook. Well
(12:10):
this is the core memory, not not the most adventurous cook.
Lennie's out with the girls from the Touch Shop. Of
course she was in the Touch Shop.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Group, of course she was. Were they actually cooking in
the Touch Shop? No, just a lot of buttering roles.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
No, No, a lot of just the cooking, the lasagnias
and the pies.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Heating, heating them up for the brown surely buttering a roll,
fory poles, lolly sandwich.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
No, not at my school. No, this was for the
lunch order.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Yeah yeah, no, couldn't get a roll?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
No, no way, it was all of that.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Do you foind that weird? Sad?
Speaker 3 (12:48):
No, primary school had salad sandwiches on the menu.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
I don't know, kid's gonna go, Yes, please extra bu
But it's not the keys, isn't it the pair?
Speaker 3 (13:00):
No, it was lunch orders to be on lunch Fridays only.
School pies, sausage, rolls, donutsms. Now what sushi is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Sushi? They did it at our school only on a Friday,
and it was Fridays, and because there was no other
touch shop any other day, we were like, please, can
we have one day where we don't have to make
lunch for four people? But it was so bad, was bad.
So she was so bad that even children knew it
was bad. Japanese children, that's bad. I just knew what
(13:38):
was bad. It was so exciting though.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
In the morning you get little yeah on.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
The bag or text online, then all the oil to
the portal and then online passway.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Two factor authentication. A random mum would walk into the
classroom and have a little box of all those kids
orders for the day.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
You know what I feel. Someone's triggered. Got tuch sharp?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Oh sorry, that was me.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Oh literally could tell me.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Because you thought you could get salad sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
We never got touch shot.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
You or your school. No.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
No, Me and John Paul, my brother, Me and my brother,
we never got touch shot. I think there was an
arrangement where we get it once a week, and that arrangement,
like a pie crust, was swiftly broken.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Got there so the Giuseppe memory, yes I have, he
would make us young children steak sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You couldn't chew it.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Toast the bread too, toast the bread, and so I
have just I was even telling Cody the other day
memories of being very young and just cutting the inside
of my I couldn't chew it.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
No, you couldn't chew it. You couldn't even make your
way through. And steak but stunning. I'd love a Giuseppe
steak sandwich.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
That's a study Duddies on dinner duty when the four
kids are getting a steak Sanger.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I love him, well, yeah, I love him. I'm amazed
Lynn didn't leave something for him to make. I think
often by the time she was going out with the
Touch Shop lady, she was a bit annoyed and she
was like, well, you can fend for yourself.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
I remember one day me and my brother and I
think maybe all four of us, or maybe it was
just two of us, had a fight to end or
it was so big, probably physical, me my brother going
at it. Oh really, and then Lynn great moves goes
that's it, I'm done, I'm leaving. I'm out of here
(15:47):
for yourself, grabbed the whole kit and kibudo. I was
very young. I remember this, and then she got in
the car and she left in the trago and she left.
I was beside myself. Came home a half an hour
later with the groceries. Oh, she got me.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Were you still upset? Did you cry when she.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Came home and started fighting again?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
How was your.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Brother with what?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
When about Lynn leaving?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
He didn't care?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
He was older, he didn't care. He didn't care. Michael,
do you think he pretended not to care.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I don't know. I think about it.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I just remember the have you ever done the fake
leave to the kids, I'm out of here, She'll just
go to the shore.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Look, I did genuine leave about fifteen years ago. I
have really haven't seen them for a while. I believe
they're doing quite well. No, but I have I fantasized
about it often. I think every mother has you fantasized
about it. Every mother fantasizes about it, the fake leave,
and then really like or you if you have to
(16:50):
leave at some time of intense, you know, high passions
in the house, high passions, often your low energy. I
would and think to myself, what would happen if I
just didn't come back, if I just kept driving, just
kept driving? They call this Sydney Road.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
What if I just go to Sydney.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Does it go to Sydney?
Speaker 3 (17:11):
I think Sydney Road, Melbourne, go to Sydney. Does it
connects to the you?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
It does? It makes it anyway, It's the subject of fantasy.
But now I have a similar fantasy. Let's talk about
three ways more on the we talked about the mighty
newle the Inland.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Did not the bruce the other one?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Stop trying to bruce the other one? I know? Okay,
So I've had a hideous revelation. This has really been
a pattern for me on the buck up. And you
know what, most people would be demoralized to find out
how little they're liked, but not me. I take it
as a as a teachable moment and I can work
(17:56):
on myself.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
What if someone hates her guards, it's a teachable moment.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Okay, I don't know I would. I don't know that
i'd say hate my guys. I think that's going to bied.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Obviously you're not reading what I'm reading.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Anyway. So my daughter's having her twenty first.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Huh, which I cannot come to. She invited me. And
you don't like the alliance?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
No, no, I don't like the alliance, but I'm happy
for her to invite you. Okay, So here's the problem.
She sent out an invitation and we don't really know
who she sent out the invitation too. And that's a
problem because on the invitation, which I've seen, I got
sent one. Well that's good, it says arrive at five
(18:41):
thirty on a Friday. Oh dear, yep. Yeah. So straight
away it turns out my husband is at a teacher's.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Conference inverted commas folks.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Down the beach. I think they can hear the egg.
They can hear the ag nottes.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
And he doesn't get back till four p thirty or
five on the friday. She's got people arriving at five thirty. Anyway,
I'm doing the cooking.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Oh you're you are. There's been four I we're going
to get You're going to get your son. Yeah, now
it's you. She doesn't want Lewis to cook steak sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I well, I'd love to do that, but I had
trouble understanding what she wanted. So we always have the
same thing when we have a family party and everyone
brings this their specialties and we will look forward to it.
We all know what we're getting. I'm doing a glazed ham,
I'm doing potatoes salad. I'm doing cold so I'm doing
potatoes yum. My sister in law Bee his tie, is
(19:40):
making green curried chicken. My mother in law Marie is
making Passion for its sponge, her famous cheese dip which
is served with chips. And she's making sausage rolls.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
This is a good line up.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
My sister in law Karen's making sausage rolls.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Tick tick tick.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
So Sunday said, I don't want any of that normal
family food.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Fair enough, Okay, twenty first, he's what you're getting rid
of straight away. I can tell you you can. Salad's off.
Yeah right, bye bye. See the twenty one. They're gonna
be maggeted by quarter past six. There's gonna be chicks
spieled in your front.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Garden, in the pool up stairs which Peter cleaned on
the weekend.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Come on, like, get rid of your salaries.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Okay, yes, bye bye. They know what she does, even
though I love it.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
No one's eating a curry at a twenty first.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You say a curry, yeah, well, well yeah bye bye
bye bye.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Any No twenty one year old rocking. Oh yes, please.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Give me that bowl for Beata. Okay, So this is
the disconnect between the family that she's invited all of apparently,
all that family that's like forty people. And I'll tell
you one thing about the Lewises.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
They can eat.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
They're hungry, they're hungry. They turn up question and they
leave full question. If they're not four, they ain't leaving.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Why else would you go to something? Yeah, correct, especially
if your family.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
So it turns out what she wants is for things
to be demure.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Oh okay, let me guess. Finger food.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, finger foods.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Like small and crispy clean.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
I think, so, yeah, I don't really have that in
my repertoire.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
What effort, I don't have it.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And then my girlfriend, Alice, who's also Sunday's godmother, said
to me, you don't understand. For the next week, you
have to try to be a completely different person.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Good luck, That's what she said to me.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
She said, anything that you are going to say, don't
say it, she said, because nobody wants to hear what
you're going to say.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Then you want to make don't make it.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Make it. She said, do you need to be a
completely different person. You need to be the opposite of
what you are. I don't even know where to begin.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Can't you just sometimes in life I say this about
many things. Yes, there are things that are just worth
spending money on. No, this is one of them.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Correct, just out sauce, idiot?
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I did I think out sauce?
Speaker 2 (22:31):
We couldn't now. And then we looked at a venue.
We thought we were going to use that venue. Then
it turned out the venue only has a capacity.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Of twenty five Where was it a cost?
Speaker 2 (22:41):
She found it? She found it a venue for twenty
five people. Very small, intimate farm.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Very small.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Anyway, that's how it ended up at our house. Now
we don't have we need someone to make cocktails. We don't.
I'm happy to pay someone.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
But who is that you can get? I've been a
few weddings with this they bring. It's like a cart.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Who are they?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
They? What I've seen her weddings. I've seen an espresso
my teeny cart?
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yeah right, she wants that was she wants a lemon cello? Okay, sprits,
yeah cart.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
There's one of them. Sure.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Just just suffice it to say that Katie, who's got
very far in life with this personality you have suddenly
has been told this personality no longer serves her. Can
you please change everything everything that you're If you're going
to say something, don't say it unless you're going to
(23:38):
say the opposite.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Isn't this are you describing in a nutshell being a parent?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Well it's never not so much with the boys, okay,
not so much with the boys. Did you know what
the boys if? My friend Noddy said, I if it
was if it was going to be a boys twenty
First you just bring out the glazed ham, he goes you.
You just slice it, chuck out some bread rolls and
they'd be as happy as anything.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I'd be happy with the bread rolls. Its.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Girls are not like that. Girls are We're daily cut creatures,
except for mothers who are forced to be work horses.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
What's the cake?
Speaker 2 (24:15):
No, she doesn't want a cake, I said, I don't
want to make her a butterfly cake with pools around
the wing.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Well, do you want to be bullied for the rest
of her life by her friends?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I thought, that's eight.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Cupcakes. We had cupcakes instead of a wedding cake. Everyone
was very happy with that. Do that. No, I'm going
to say no. To a cupcake. Okay, don't be like this.
I needed to be who you are for this pod.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I mean sound effects some godo.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Oh another question? There speeches yes, speech to who who?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Okay, so apparently that guy who I'm not allowed to mention.
So I won't mention him because I'm normally it's not invited.
Which is I find strange? Is she embarrassed about us?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
She?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Who's She's say to Peter, I'm just one thing I
want you to do. Fix that hole in the ceiling.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I don't care who you are on planet Earth. Yeah,
your kids are going to be embarrassed by you if
you're their parents. That's how it was.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Do you know what? Partly I'm calm. We should just
get go there, say happy birthday, and then leave.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's a big day if you invite. I'm not saying
Sunday is doing this, but if you are to have
a birthday when you've been twenty first, thirtieth and it's
your first time, people are meeting the person you might
be possibly dating, too big of a day.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I know it's too much. I don't I don't disagree. Invite.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
You cannot bring someone for the first time to Christmas
don't you think you can't. You've got to do something
like small as go.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Okay, I present to you a witness for the prosecution.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Peter's older brother, Paul, mm hmm. Peter, Paul and Mark
I was working in my head and Sue their sister. Anyway,
Paul has been on a jag of dating. He's very
popular on the apps, and he said to his mother
(26:40):
I can get them, I just can't keep them.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
By choice or well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
At one point he was having a drink in our street.
Peter came home and said, because who I just wrote on.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
The street on the street.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
No, but in a courtyard with only a paling fence
between him and the street, with some German.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
Does everyone in your family catch people on dates.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
In our street?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Here?
Speaker 3 (27:07):
It's home one of who leaves the house you catch
someone on a date.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
He lives forty minutes away, and we caught him in
our streets.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
Anyway, what venues on your street?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
No, it was that he was at the German woman's house,
having a glass of wine in the backyard into cortills
in the courtyard.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Right.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Anyways, about that story, that are very odd to me.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
She broke up with him, so we don't need to
worry about her. But okay, so he texts.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
His brother at any point and go hey, I'm in
your street.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Yes he did.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Oh okay, yeah, well that makes more sense.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
All right, Peter said. When he got the message, he went,
he must be on a date moment. Did you think that?
But he said, what else? Our street and not at.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Our house anyway, it's not to park.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Okay, So get a load of this. I'm going to
far this under I for insanity. And I've told him
this so he knows this. So Peter's mum has got
a huge family, or it might have been the Lewis
side of the family. And when I say huge, it's
like seventy cousins and they're all in their seventies and
eighties now and they've all had kids and blah blah blah.
(28:14):
So when they have a family reunion, it's a big deal. Right.
This was a Lewis family reunion. They did it in
a park because there's too many of them to be inside.
Guess who Paul took Peter's brother, the German woman, No,
the new one he's been dating for two weeks to
(28:34):
a family reunion.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
No, you can't do that. Isn't that shocked? She was stoked.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
I've been stoked.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
She would have been texting her friends going, how amazing
this weird.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I don't think it would have been anyone. He's taken
me into a family reunion park. I don't think a park.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Episode.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
I don't think anyone's stoked by that. Anyway. It's obviously
worked well because we've got an invitation to his birthday
party and it's from both of them.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Oh, she's on the invites now.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
And they've only been going out for like two months around.
I said to Maroa, though my mother in law, Well,
I don't know how old she is. He Yeah, but
he's a grown up man.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Yeah, what's up?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I think that's rude to us. He's older than Peter,
and Peter's fiddy.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Okay, there we go. Maybe that's not even about whist
too short, get amongst it were day. We're happy he's
one hundred and seventy five of my family members.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
But normally you're going, oh, hello, uncle Clem, I haven't
seen you far whatever, And then you go, oh and
meet this woman I've known for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah, fair enough, very straight. You know, my mom's side
is so big that many years ago we wanted a
big family photo and the family is so big we
had to get to it. We had to hire a
park and build scaffold them for the photo. True stories
never forgotten.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Now you know what that was. And then pre drone,
pre dry, it was pre dream dry Drone would have
your sword it.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I was a teenager and to get all of us,
just mum and just Mum's siblings. Yeah, they're families, are
that because she's got eight she's one of ten ten
that involved scaffolding. And my uncle Trev couldn't come. Hello,
Uncle Trev. We knew Uncle Trev on this pod priest.
The priest couldn't come, so they superimposed him into the picture.
And this was like fifteen twenty years ago. And it's
(30:29):
not a good that's not done well did that because
it's so tall?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Always the one that did that?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Not too sure, but this was many years to.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Be superimposing fifteen years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I'm going to try and find the photo that would.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Have been a very dark art.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I'm going to try and find the photo.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You've got to find it. Show notes along with my chi.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
To food scaffolding okay to have an awkward question to ask,
but I know you'll be honest with me because my
husban is so lovely and kind that he never tells
me the truth about me.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
What is it about you?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well, here's the question. Can you please be honest with me?
Speaker 2 (31:10):
You know nothing gives me more pleasure than to be honest,
even though I don't do it out of cruelty.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
But all you need to tell me if I'm going
through some weird early midlife crisis because of this one.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yes, you are. We've already worked established that there's been
a recurring theme of the buck up this highly venerated podcast.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Give me three two points of evidence about that because
I'm wearing my hair floppy.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
You get scammed all the time.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Yeah, that's not midlife crisis.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
It's totally midlife crisis.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Is it scammed?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Would you talk to my four kids? Not one of
them has been scammed and they've got life yawning in
front of them, full of possible.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
I thought a mid life crisis was your actions and
your behavior that you're putting out into the world and
getting sam not things that happened to you.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
I think it's do you know what I think one
begets the other. You think, yeah, okay, yeah. You know
a lot of women are depressed. You know, they talk
about becoming invisible, and the reason they are depressed about
that is because the world has treated them like they're invisible.
They don't wake up one day and go, oh my goodness,
I'm invisible. Things happen that lead them to realize that
(32:22):
the world that is how the world sees them all,
In fact, no longer sees.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
I want to be seen and heard. Yeah. I have
a weird sketched history with piercings. It's just I don't
know why. Okay, cool got so many failed ones. Oh okay.
One of my big ones was when I was seventeen,
I wanted to be a rebel.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Eyebrow tongue. Tongue got my tongue pierced when I was seven,
and all you hear when people talk with.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Clicking hitting the teeth. Went down a Greensboro plaza with
my cousin. Didn't ask Mum or Dad, Oh no, straight,
I wouldn't to the piercing place. It cost back then.
I think it was like sixty bus.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, always an expensive one. That tongue got my.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Tongue pierced and it was excruciating.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
How did they do it with a clamp?
Speaker 3 (33:19):
And then they put a cup of ice neck in
your hand because then straight away you got to like
tongue the ice and then they it's like a big pole,
like a rod that goes up. Yeah, so did that?
Then I got my ears two in one ear.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Hang on, what happened when you came home?
Speaker 3 (33:33):
You know what it was?
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Tongue.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I was just like I was a little ship from
the ages of like fifteen to eighteen nineteen. I was awful.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Yeah, you said that it was awful. Some would say
just change chop dad. Okay, yeah, you don't get it. Yeah,
I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Then what of that slam indoors? Yeah, you know, I'm
running away. Go down to the park for fifteen minutes.
I want to get both my ears pierced. And Cody,
the way he's looked at me when I've said it,
I think he thinks I'm going through a midlife crisis, Kate.
I want to get there and their two little black
(34:12):
earrings go. Be honest, this is why I love our friendship.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Here we go, folks, Okay, you're not going to put
those spaces in your ears, are you No? Okay? That
is just and I'm really down with people's I love
people's choices. Get as many sticks you want, whatever, all those.
I can't stop staring those. When you meet someone that
you're staring into that what a part that you shouldn't
(34:44):
be able to see, which is the inside of anyway, whatever.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
You can see through the hoops.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
I think I think you'd look like and this might
be a look that you like. You'd look like a
nineteen eighties Berlin rent boy. Okay, I'm okay, And that
might be.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
The nineteen eighties Berlin rent boy.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
You would look like you should always be wearing a
backpack and roller blades. Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Yeah, and maybe you'd blade, maybe that blade. Yeah, yeah,
it's a hard no from my podcast.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
Well no, not no, that might be the look that
you're going for. I love someone who's got a distinct
laws and sound like. But that's what that's what you
will be projecting to the world, do you know what
I mean?
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Well, you're gonna look like this, and I love it.
You're gonna but I love it.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
That's what you would look like. You would look like.
Is that a no?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
That's from you? To no.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
No, it's not a no, it's absolutely no. It's not
a no.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Second question, Okay, let's move on from the EARI okay,
Is it a sign that I'm going through something that
I even want that?
Speaker 2 (35:57):
No? I don't think so. No, you just want to.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Not like what if they're white or silver? When you
say white, little little like a little stud like a
little like a little diamond.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
I don't know how to say this in a without
sounding pejorative. We all know that you're gay, and never
stopped you before. You're gay. But that's a very gay look.
Do you know what I mean? It's a very gay look. Now,
if you're suddenly wanting to have a very gay love,
(36:31):
whatever your voice goes very it's just a gay look.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
It's very gay.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
You might suddenly want to be a gay.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
It's actually not just very gay, it's also quite What's
what I'm trying to look for?
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Ethnic?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
I see a lot of see a little I see
a lot of guys with the double earring, and they
are of a certain background. Often would you.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Get but I like a guy with PCs. I'm not
anti PC.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
It's the boat and I think the black.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Definitely not Okay, it's dirty, all right. So we're saying no,
I don't want black marks on your ear.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
So we're saying no to that.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
To know, but pierced fine.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
I can still do these two in my ear.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Oh well, why don't you do that? Because that was
such a mother response. Is there any piercings on your kids,
Lewis is pierced Ea? Yeah, one or two.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Wow, totally gets blackheads. That landed with a thud. That's
one of the biggest.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
That's one of the that's.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
One of the loudest thuds I've ever heard on this pod. No,
I don't think I asked for your fee.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
No, I tell you why. I just sat up the
look would be and you didn't. You're the one that
was judgmental about that look. Some people would be like, yeah,
a nineteen eighties Berlin Rent Boys was the best known
for said good looks horribly. So people who are totally
(38:02):
I'm not mad at you.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I'm happy with having this. I asked this of you,
and we've landed on a very solid no. But do
you know what I'm not against what just getting it
and just having a look.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Get it and have a look out.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
It's fine.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
It's like piercings are nothing, although with my ill fated ones,
so my girlfriend's still got a scar taking me through
your body where you're okay, So twice on the nose.
The ears are all fine. I've still got two on
my left ear, never an issue, and two failed ones
(38:41):
terribly failed on my belly button I really wanted.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Now they got infected.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
I don't have a belly button. You know, the girls
who who have a belly button for showing are the
real hour glass girls, and they'd always wear the low gene,
have a crop top and then have some gorgeous you
know me. I had a fantasy that I'd have some
dim monte thing just hanging there, hanging like cute. You
(39:10):
should say what this is pointing too? Write that right?
And instead what I got was, I don't know if
you're a baker, but when you're making dough and you
have to punch it down and then it rises and
you just poke a finger in there to see and
if your finger leaves an imprint, your dough's pretty good
(39:33):
to go. That's what I have for a belly button.
Pre bread, yeah, pre bread. And so my jeans rubbed
on it and then I was in balley on a
holiday with a girlfriend and I was getting this is
so terrible.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
She said, you've got to have this treatment. You've got
to have this treatment. It involved tumoric and yogurt all
over the body. But you know how the balain Is
have to grow their fingernails. Their little fingernail I was long.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
I do not know this.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
It's an Asian thing. A lot of Asian as well
help around the house. I think it's for poking, for cleaning, cleaning,
I think so, maybe that's not.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
It's not the dumbest thing I've heard, I know.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
But they often all have it, like Asian guys will
often have long their little fingers, long nails. Anyway, this
woman had long fingers and her fingernail caught in my
belly button. The second time I got it done, I
got it done with a sleeper, not a stud, because
we thought the sleeper might take better. And it ripped
(40:37):
and then it got infected. It was so repulsive that
the Russian woman I used to go to to get
my eyebrows done quarterized with the soldering iron and I
literally smelt burning flesh. Luba. She saved my life.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
I can't keep up with that story. It was whipwash.
It's a text from text from mom before it also
before text from.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Haven't even money back guarantee off your.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Pop unlike unlike your piercings. Yeah, they will make people
feel better at the end than they did at the start.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
That's what this podcast does.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
You just asked me. YEA did it?
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Oh my god, that's the money back guarantee for getting
your money back.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Oh my god. If people don't like our poor they
say it got infected.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
But infection is great. Now you're virus. Oh my god,
I can't get rid of it up. It's like toenail fungus.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
Yes, please spread us to your friends, infect them with

Clint, Hello, Clint, Clint, Clint, Clint, Hello, Clint.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
You don't want to say that name wrong, do you?
Speaker 2 (42:20):

I two close together. It's a sort yeah, yeah we are.
We're in trouble, uh, he says to us.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
Firstly, every episode is a side quest salad, but the
tequila episode is something else. Oh no, he's got a point. Yes,
thank you, Clint l I n T. And something that
is embarrassing that shouldn't be. And this is for the
boys listening because it's so true. As a man walking
through a department store and having to walk through the
women's underwear section to get to the area you need. Ah,
(42:51):
we all do it.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
We do this little hustle, embarrassing little hustle and look
ahead at your feet.
Speaker 3 (43:01):
You kind of want to yell out, I'm going to fragrance.
Speaker 2 (43:05):
You always yeah, right, Like when I asked my husband
to order me a shandy at a pub, he always
goes up to the bar. I know that he does this,
and he turns back and goes with a shandy, wasn't
it because he's so intent on letting the barm and
know that it's not for him. I do that when
you do that walking through.
Speaker 3 (43:25):
But I do that. I do that with beer because
I always get the order wrong because I don't drink
any of that. So when I'm getting beers for people,
I just say to them I think I'm getting I'm
always doing that, but in the opposite Yeah, to help me,
you should be ordering a shandy. And while we're out.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
There, very much a drink for you guys with peas.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
And while we're on this, Clint, I don't know why
I said it like that because I agree with him.
Speaker 2 (43:51):
Cleentive towards clan Clint.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Yeah, they need to be more obvious where you are
in these department stores. When you're trying to find what
Florida go to. It never says you are here.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
They don't hear enough. They don't want you to. They
want you to wander around like here in Will's Having
Eaten your Horse.
Speaker 3 (44:09):
Charlie Men's level three.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
What level am I on? Yes? Yes, never tell you, yes, Yes.
Speaker 3 (44:15):
I need a huge big red circles. You're here, you
tell me where I am. Department stores. I've got to
get to the women's department and sniff the Andes text.
Speaker 2 (44:26):
From all right. This is in fact a text from Dad.
And it wasn't just a text, it was an audio message.
And you know how it converts.
Speaker 3 (44:42):
Yes, that's happening so much new text voice to text.
