of great beauty. Some teenage boys walk.
Speaker 2 (00:13):

Producer in the land? Possibly still Actually this might be.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Proof she didn't turn my microphone on.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Yeah, but that could be proof that she is the
great producer in the land. Mine was not either? Or
is she passive aggressive? Was it last week's episode when
she was body shaming me? I mean, to be fair,
I'm always slut shaming her, but that is founded in reality.
A snort from the golfer. Look at her, she's so
(01:37):
thrilled with herself.
Speaker 3 (01:38):

You know what. She Chappelle corbied me.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (01:58):

Asterik asterisk Yeah, very hard. It's so hard.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
It's like I did it slow and I still got
it wrong.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
It's like underneath anasthetist, and it's just impossible.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
We're not here to talk. We're doing a podcast. Honestly,
what word We'll tell you a quick little footnote when
you throw out your she she Chappelle corbied me very quickly.
If you don't know you you went and visited Chappelle
in prison in Bali, and then when she wrote her
book years later, she fat shamed you.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And is it not the truth? It's a hundred truth.
And when you say that, what claim to fat?
Speaker 3 (03:01):
It's one of my favorite showbiz stories of all time.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
When you're getting fat chamed in a book, yeah, by
someone who's in prison, when you have taken them We're
not even going to read visit what I brought to
her because I can't bear I can't bear your complete
lack of appreciation of what I brought Chappelle Corby, and
also the day.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
It was nuts and tampon. So don't make that, she said,
get out of myself, Fatty.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
I think people are hoping I'll bleed to deep. Oh
my god, God, because apparently a lot of people gave
their tampon. Nobody else gave her the patent's chocolate dipped caramel.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
This is my own fault for bringing this up.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Which only seem to be available in Judy Free store
very quickly. Last week banged on.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Remember I can for once banged on about particular men
in the world loving tsunami warnings just as much as
I love of World War two. And Cody, my husband
has the earthquake tracker in real.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Time on his phone.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Yes, tell you what, Kate, what the great Brisbane earthquake
of last week? An earthquake in Queensland. He was happier
than our wedding day.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
He ran into the room and also in his home state,
home city.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
And then it hit him, Kate, what earthquake?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Fomo?
Speaker 3 (04:29):
It hit him that he wasn't there his family, some family.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Did He get the full report.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
From the report, some things fell off the shelf. Some
people thought a big truck was driving fast.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Kate, it was all on anyone go in stand in
the bathroom? Oh yeah, did the frame lintal? Is it lint? Through?
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Never understand why would I say to run the bath in.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
It because you need water just to dream because water
will get cut off. That's odd? That makes sense? Is
that odd? I never understood naturally. For it's like when
people say when I have a baby. When someone's having
a baby in a Western movie was like oil boil.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Oh yes, a baby in a Western movie.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Keep going that like old Western? Right, they always boil water.
And they start ripping up sheets? What are they ripped up?
Bits of sheep? Just the mop of the miss You
just use like a good question sheet?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Or were contact the movie makers.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Strips of sheet? Maybe I didn't do it right. I
only did it full times.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
But Kate lane Brook, this is earthquake karma because many
years ago Melbournie's listening will remember this. About seven eight
years ago Melbourne got a big earthquake. Can't remember what
the number was, but it was very decent and nerdy
science for you if you're traveling, it's hard to feel it.
So I was driving in my car.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Oh I did feel it. I remember it. I was
at home and I think I said was that an earthquake?
On Twitter? Oh? Wow?
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yeah, back in the day. And then I got home
and Cody was losing mode because he just experienced earth happy.
He good?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Do you know what that means? So then, ever since
then he is always hard on.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Oh he had a Richter scale.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He had a nine point eight an Ericter scale.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
So ever since then, for years and years and years,
he's needled me for not ever experiencing the Melbourne earthquake. Well,
guess what, you didn't experience the Brisbane earthquay.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But you weren't. He wasn't inspecial? Are you tormenting him
with that? Speaking of nerds?
Speaker 3 (06:53):

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Oh, it's all happening. It's also a dress. Oh so
it's really seeped.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Nicest was Kate Lamebrook last year, who was an insanely
inappropriate flirt and insisted on hand feeding me a marshmallow what.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Cancel you meet too? To seat warmer?
Speaker 3 (13:05):
You hand fed him a marshmallow some man you don't know, No.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I remember him, you do now? I remember him? No,
I remember him because he was really hungry. He was
really hungry, and.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Use the word for he said forced feeding. Oh, he
said hand feeding.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Because then we had I had a conversation with him,
and he said, they're not allowed to eat. They're also
not allowed to talk to us unless we talk to
them first. And I'm like, so, I said to him,
but if I was then to feed you, you couldn't
say no because and he goes, well, I guess not.
(13:51):
And so I fed him because he was hungry. Hot story. Oh,
marsh I don't remember it being marshmallow.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
And it's a seven hour reveng feed the man.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
I mean, you think he would have liked something more savory.
We must have been on dessert by that point, many many,
many years ago.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It was in my show many years ago when I
had the greatest day of my life and was an
extra on Neighbors. Oh, yes, and I played the unconscious patient. No,
it was an unconscious hospital patient and was.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Will your show? Yeah, well I just said that.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Yeah, we wheeled across into bed. They don't lie. These
stories you hear about being an extra are true. You
arrive on set and they say, do not look at
the actors, do not talk to the actors. Do not
touch that food, do not use that table.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Those chairs are.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Not for you. You cannot eat until this part. It
is so intense.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Those rules did you break?
Speaker 3 (14:43):
While all the cast are very lovely and came and
spoke to everyone.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Anyway, Okay, I've got to tell you a story. This
is a confession. My first ever acting role when I
got kicked out of drama school was on Neighbor and
it was after Kylie and Jason. Obviously it was after
(15:06):
those heady periods, but it was still a heady period.
But in the green room where you like, you know
how long you spend waiting out there? Yes, there was
a pin board and the pin board had photos on it,
like cast photos taken with each other, cute, having a
(15:27):
great time, handfeeding marshmallows. There was a photo of Kylie
on it and Jason here we go. And I took
it to this dad. I love this story. I still
have that photo.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Bring it, give it to me to find it. How
amazing that I've got that photo, and I was like,
you know, actors are the most scurrilous people in the world,
but like, no shame, no morals, no, and hello to
our actors listening and me, this is how I know.
And yet all of them showed more moral fiber than me,
(16:09):
because so many had passed through that green room and
no one else had stolen one of the photos, but
I did.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
And then you went on to write episodes of Neighbors.
That's right, lesson here kids, steal you be rewarded.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Isn't that? That was like I turned that into my
vision part.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Oh yeah, yeah, I stole the photo, wrote a nap.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Can you remember what happened in the episode?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Plural?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Did you write many few?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yeah? Six week rotation?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Okay, maybe for four years or so, amazing. Do you
remember any of the plots or the stories?
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Do you remember did you kill anyone off? No? It
was in the days when Carl was having an a fee.
Oh my god. The best period ever Neighbors period be
period with the old mate from Roadtrators and now no, no,
not nat Bands. Oh there's another one, the black hair,
the English one who was Nicola. Nicola, she's a proper cooker,
(17:06):
rabbit something rabbit, rabbits, nicole rabbit. Now if anyone.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
I got it, I got it. Stunning so hot, and
that affair, yes, gave us the incredible fight scene between
Carl and Susan when Susan slapped Carl.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Really remember that? Do you remember?
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Because we were a neighbors, we were a neighbors household.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
You were either neighbors or home and away home in
a way to Racy, Yeah, you can't do both.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
One was at seven, one was at six neighbor's household
and love neighbors.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
You know, there was always a thing that neighbors always hired,
not not a hard and fast rule, but the more interesting,
the facially more interesting actors, whereas Home and Away just
tied the out and out hot is so a lot
of the people that came through neighbors really good character actors.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
And I've never forgotten the day Susan Kennedy when you
hear her speak as a normal person does not have
an Australian accent, and it's shocking to hear She's not Australian?
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Is she in English? Canadian? Kennedy? Kennedy is not Australian. Okay,
This is probably when you hear her speak to use
this podcast with what another podcast? Where Jackie Woodburn? Yeah?
Oh god, that was good. How'd you get that? I
used to write for the show. I used to see
(18:44):
her name your vision board. How funny Northern Ireland. She's Irish.
Well they never top of them. Morn into your currents
that please slap your fees. You're a jeo. She decked
bastard who have been cheating on me with? Now what
(19:07):
Tom Dicker? Harriet, you're dirty dick? Call yourself a doctor? Well, physician,
here thyself very good? There's that actor out yeah, ba
(19:28):
to tell you something terrible that happened to me And
I was rocked to my foundation by.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
It, pineapple level shocked.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
No more existential.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Oh dear, this happens to me when I've got no
phone coverage.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Well, how funny you say no phone coverage? Because okay,
So I was going up to Sydney to do some
no filter interviews and in the car I was talking
to the driver, who was very chatty, lovely guy call guy.
And normally, you know, you get in the car and
you're on your phone. I don't know, and he dropped
(20:10):
his phone slid off the front seat, and he said,
I shouldn't reach I won't reach for it. I shouldn't
have my phone anyway. I'm not gonna, I'm not using
and I'm not answering it. But it was funny. And
then we were talking about how things slide around, like
your water bottle or whatever. And I said to him,
the time that you're really convot, I'm a nice person.
(20:36):
So handfeed him of a marshmallow. So I said, I'm
the time that you're not on your phone, I'm going
to be spending on my phone. So I remember getting
my phone out. It was still plugged in. I'd put
the cord in my bag where I just yanked it
out of the socket running out the door. And then
I didn't end up getting on my phone because we
(20:57):
ended up talking. He drops me at the airport. I
go in. I've just got to carry on. I go
to one of the little screens where you tappity tippity
tap and you put in what flight you're on, And
why are you doing that if it's just carry on?
Speaker 3 (21:11):
You just checked check.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
I had checked in, but I always like to get
a hard a whole recording pass. Well, I've got my
virtual one on my digital one. Yes, I also like
to get one which I use as a.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
B I have been at the airport with you, and
it was the most exhausting hour of my life.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
I remember I remembered a hard pass because I picked
and then you lost it, and then you took another
ticket that wasn't yours, trying to get us into the lounge,
arguing with the ticket it was a lounge. Leaving the lounge,
I took someone else's past did and then we thought
we had to rely on the kindness of strangers to
get into the lounge. And then my manager said to me, no,
you've got.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Lounge access, which was after a half an hour fight.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah, anyway, God, So I go in. I'm at the
screen and I go, I can't remember what flight it is.
Is it four o'clock or four third? I can't remember that.
I'm just so I go, oh, look, I'll look at
my phone. I know I've been sent the details. Where's

pineapple store look a little bit, but more sympathetic, because
you know, the pineapple look was no sympathy. She gave
me a look of like mild and appropriate disdain mixed
(25:41):
with sympathy.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
This would have made it to the Airport TV show
where they show you.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
All the dramy totally the border security one.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Or another another one called airport.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Yeah, right, ten old one. I think they've done it before.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
Susie.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Use of doing the voice. I think they've done it, befo.
It's a classic because the airport's full of story.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
I'm watching it. Hang on anyways, couples running late, I'm in.
I'm invested exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
What are you enjoying? So much? Free?
Speaker 3 (26:17):
That's all I've got one and nice think about it often, Sash?
What have I ever bracelet the jingles? Of course, it's
like stand society comes to the Christmas tree.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
You know what? This is a pylons of someone who's
already suffering. How terrible? Think of my anxiety, my anxiety,
my anxiety. What is that that song? Anxiety? Anyway? The end?
Speaker 3 (26:51):
You got on your flight?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Did you get on your flight? It was a question mark,
what come on? I don't like your attitude stories. I
got on the fly. Okay, yep, that's it, Sash, Wind
me up, wind me up. Don't on my podcast. We
need to know my podcast. Hey.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
No. If there's one thing I like knowing, what's his
Name's one thing I like doing, it's silencing powerful.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Yeah, that's right, truth to power. That's what he does.
That's them. I got on the fly. I'm not gonna no.
You're like a bank in Switzerland. Two percent in.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
No, we went off too much, and I'm bringing it back,
bringing it back to the ending. No, to the path
we were on, which was did they call your manager?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I need to know that she did. I said, she
did it all. Oh, okay, she googled it, so she
got Joanna and I said, Joanna, I'm at the airport.
Handed the phone. Yeah, she handed me the phone. And
not only that, she said, I'm going to leave the
phone here for when she calls back, so you can
see if she's calling, because I might be busy with customs.
(28:02):
She was so nice.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
She's got some kids that have lost their parents.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
She was so nice. From the project. Anyway, I said,
my phone is in the car, but he's left guys off,
Guys gone, Guys gone, And she said, she said, I
will call him and I will call you back his
(28:27):
whole process. We've got to speed this up because it
took a long time. Took a long time because it
turned out he got the phone call while he was
on the freeway. And you know, they take a dim
view of people being able to do a U turn.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
On a free very rarely.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Can you actually do it, They don't let you do it.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Cops doing it you know what, I really get to
be in my bonnet to nineteen fifties. No, no, no, no,
not yet. Sure, yeah, I promise. When cops give a
hard time to people that have pulled over on the
freeway because they're picking someone up from the airport and
they're called it a bit too early and they're going
(29:06):
to pull over and the cops get get in there and.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Tell you to move on, it's a very specific.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
It happened to.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
A bit early, saying it's so specific.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
There's been a bit of a delay some for some reason.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
To avoid one hundred dollars it costs to part not.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Even that, just the you want to time it perfectly.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
You are trying to skyline brook who is paying to
pick someone up? Yeah, I know, I get it. I'm
not You're not wrong.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
I'm going up the ramp. You're jumping whipp.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Then he said Joanna called back. Sarah just was with
the customer and handed me her phone. We love Sarah
and the customer. I actually had to say excuse me
and interrupted and ask for another question. I said to
the man, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
I've lost my Now I want to know what his
problem was.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
I don't know body. He didn't. He was not sympathetic.
He was pure pineapple. And there's two.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
There's the two places I become extremely nosy.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
One doctors.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Everyone's there, especially the ones that.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Have the long appointments.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Yeah to the airport drama. I need to know, Yes,
what's going on? Why is that person upset?
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Yeah? I want to.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Why is the air host he talking to that guy?
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah, I want to know. Why is he being escorted
off the plane? Yeah? I agree with you. Well, this
guy was not you because he had no interest in
my dilemma. He just apparently wanted to be helped with
his concern by the airline staff. Anyway, So she said
to me Joanna sid he'll be there in ten minutes.
(30:46):
So I said to Sarah, excuse me, sir. I gave
her the phone back. I said, I'm just going to
wait outside.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
My god, you're leaving the airport on my phone.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Well, he was going to pull up out the park.
He took longer than ten minutes. He had to find it.
You didn't know what was going on. I would have
lost his job if he got secure. Because I was
in that moment, I realized, how I know, we all
know it, But how the phones have just got us.
(31:19):
I literally couldn't imagine my next three days without a phone.
I couldn't imagine how anything would work, how anything would happen.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
How did you get there?
Speaker 2 (31:31):
How would I get there? How would I know when
the guy in Sydney was coming to pep? How do
you get a taxi if you don't have your phone?
How do I wake up in the morning?
Speaker 3 (31:39):
What year is this?
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Where do I go? Who am I interviewing? What time
is it I get it?
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Who am not once to just say text or call?
Speaker 2 (31:48):
But that's fine. And also I know nobody's numbers. Who
does except my husband? Oh I, oh, hang on?
Speaker 3 (31:58):
I don't even know such if a few guys, I
could get codies. But I also don't know his birthday.
So in my defense, I'm just not very good with numbers.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
That doesn't help you if you are in that situation.
There's no amount of modern.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Day one hundred. Does one eight hundred reverse still work?
I don't think surely it does.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
No, Because I've been watching one of those things, you know,
where parents do kids and they ask them questions from
the nineties. No, they're on, they're on, say a TikTok thing.
People who have phones know about this anyway, So it's
like a video trend. Yeah, okay, So they go and
they get the kid and they ask them what's the
Yellow Pages or whatever. One of the things they ask
(32:41):
is what's a reverse phone call? Sounds like no one
knows what they are use it all the time down
there at Greensboro Plaza Main Street. The only way I
had the movie is finish can't pick us up? Yeah?
What did you reverse call?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
That?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
It was fifteen? How do they know what? We used
to have a code at my parents with my parents,
they wouldn't accept a reverse call. No, So what we
had to do was get off at the train station
at Runcorn train station, call and hang up.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Okay, let it ring tree hang up.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
And then it was an act of faith that someone
would come to pick you up.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
This is what the youth of today don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Faith that sure.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Also, a father's obsession with the phone bill grinded that
man's gears more than a high phone bill. My dad
would stroll him.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
No, no, no.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Light switches, phone bill always phone bills the value household.
It was this ready who voted for Australian Idol fifteen.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
We know who that.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
It was me voting for a glassy Bastian. I think,
of course ethnic clear you did any of them win?
Speaker 2 (34:02):
No, you had a succession of second. None of them won.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
In Casey Donovan beat Guy.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Yeah, and no I don't didn't. Let's not Ricky went
out seven. This is like the neighbors conversation. Sorry, what's happened?
Phone bills?
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Father nostal nostalgia?
Speaker 2 (34:18):
All right, what we're talking about? My airport? Anyway, I
got my phone back. I've never been happier to see
a device that I have pilloried, mocked, detested, complained about.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Where was it in the car?
Speaker 2 (34:34):
In the back seats, on the seat?
Speaker 3 (34:36):
And you made your flight after all this.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
I made my flight. This is what a really good thing.
I left so early because I wasn't sure what time
my flight was, and how handy that I got time
to go into the lounge. Thank you Sarah from virgin

we haven't given the money back guarantee for the buck
up if you lose your phone. Here is the money
back guarantee that, no matter how, you come to.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Us, all the empty chip buckets.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
No matter what flotsam and jetsam, you've been washed up
on the rocky shores of life.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
With the two eels from the Little Mermaid. Maybe it
is that ursula. Things do must be I've got it, yeah,
floxham and.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
Jet No matter how decrepitive spirit, you may feel pulled
over on the freeway waiting for your partner to arrive. Correct. Conversely,
you may come to us as giddy as a girl
full of beans, full of lives, or a boy to

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Oh what's your favorite chip flavor?
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Oh I'm not what's your I know that this, I
know that this would say otherwise, but not a.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
There is an empty packet of one to three packets
of chips and two ready to go. Very funny, but.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Really Okay, you know what my new obsession is and
I started eating it ironically, if such a thing is possible,
And now I'm seriously mad for it. The cobs cheddar cheese,
popcorn o.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
M, that's the one that you were eating off the
floor when I walked into that day.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
I wasn't eating them off the floor. Oh you were
on the floor.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
If you were on the floor, spilt them.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Yeah, so I didn't want the cleaner to have to do.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
You know what, Chippies are so underrated and I just
cannot stop once I start.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
What is it? The grain wave? Oh? Your grain waves
very good. It's heavy, they're good. You can dip them
or you can just eat them.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Yeah. I don't love them, Okay, I.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Don't they better than you think.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
They're better than you think, mate, get around the grain.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Wi such I can't imagine. Sache is not really snacky,
but she loves cheese. And you know what she does.
She loves a bit of blue cheese and she loves it.
This is a Sasha French thing. She'll have a bit
of cheese and she goes, oh, deloscious, so good, it's
making me sweet.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
That's how you get the cheese sweat? Do you get
the nightmare?
Speaker 2 (38:11):
People get get nightmares? I think that's an old wives
how to stop people eating.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
And I never get nightmares off MSG either that's a lie.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Oh you know. Lewis says that's racist, is it?
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (38:23):
That the campaign against MSG. Whoa He says that I
do remember reading once by the way, who cooks and
he's he loves MSG.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
I remember reading in a deep dive once at MSG is.
Now we're near as bad few as they salt.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
But mind you, you know you get around the groun.
Speaker 3 (38:39):
Let's get the grain waves just a mineral, so you know,
grain waves sponsored the buck up Free Grainwaves. Okay, So
two words that I never thought I would say to you, Kate,
And I'm going to say these words, and many people
are going to have a visceral reaction to these words.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
But I'm sorry, it's not okay, I've lost him. Two
words you're going to say to me.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
And at people. This is people's life or it's not
their life. They're in or they're out. They're all about
it or they're not.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
It is a absolute. It is a room black and white.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
It's a black and white. It's a black and white, yes,
no gray area. Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (39:19):
What is it? Facebook? Marketplace?
Speaker 3 (39:22):
When I tell you that I have gone forty one
years on this planet, without thinking of it, going near it,
even understanding it. In the last couple of weeks, it
may have been discussions about we're moving to another place,
might replace a couple of things. Oh my goodness, not
so much that that my friends faces when they say
to me on Nathan, welcome to Facebook mind. Oh yeah,
(39:47):
and Sash is one of them. By the way, last
week your face up said you loved it.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
What are you getting? I got your birthday present at
the Facebook marketplace you. Oh my goodness, that is the
best brand new present ever. By the way, what was it?
Hang on, look at me, I couch with danes, No stunning.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
That was from Facebook Marketplace.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I did think you'd spent a lot of money on.
I thought it was to an LED screen LED laser. Yeah,
but not a face mask the proper. Don't know that
you lie under. And Artie's been using it as well.
The lady had brought too. She had one which she
showed she devote her and she bought one for a daughter,
but her daughter wanted her daughter didn't want to welcome.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
See I mentioned it and.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
We've kicked off. And also we've given away a lot
of stuff on Facebook.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
My friend said to me Her fear is that when
she buys or sells that people will see it pop
up in her feet and she doesn't know. She doesn't
trust the privacy settings because she doesn't want people to
know that she's selling stuff Facebook marketplaces.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
There's a bit of some people.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
I don't use my personal Facebook account, right, I haven't
in many years.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
Okay, I don't know about face. You don't have Facebook.
I use the new velo page.
Speaker 3 (41:03):
Can give me a follow?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Yeah, but I didn't start it. My manager started.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
I've got our pages for I don't know. Yeah, personal
it's still there.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
I just don't. I've never when it started and everyone
was talking about poking.
Speaker 3 (41:16):
People, Oh yes, give us a poke.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
Yeah, never did that. That's all I know. But what
about so I had you have to use your account?
So I tried to make a new one. I can't
do it.
Speaker 3 (41:26):
I tried to make a new account. I was like,
I want to start fresh new personal account. Used Cody's
surname as my surname because we've kept our names.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Added a couple of people.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Text slash included saying hey, can you just see yes
to this random request? Two days later, your account has
been suspended for good. It is. It is fraudulent.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
You're really no my fat Facebook? I know they know
I'm not a real person. How would they know that?
Speaker 3 (42:00):
No, but it's gone already.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
Oh I don't like that.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
Here's what I want to say about what's going.
Speaker 2 (42:05):
To happen come December whenever when they bring.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
In those ris. I don't actually hate those rules. I
feel like everyone should have ID to have an account
on account.
Speaker 2 (42:16):
I don't that's something you've got to have IDA to
seem the lead.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
Like people don't realize he did some comments something, some
comments hurt?
Speaker 2 (42:24):
Yeah whatever?
Speaker 3 (42:25):
Filled in on the cheap seats the other night?
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Oh I know what did people say about? That? Was
mostly a really fun time. I don't want to hear that.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
And then there's just one that pops up, Get this
tool OFFT like thank you mate with the with the
picture of a fish in your profile.
Speaker 2 (42:39):
I'm thinking about him all day.
Speaker 3 (42:41):
He should show his face, right, he should show have
his full name.
Speaker 2 (42:45):
All right so I can stoke. Yeah, yeah, it would
actually wipe out a lot of nastiness.
Speaker 3 (42:51):
Is what I'm getting at AnyWho.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
But but I don't like. I just don't like what
I feel. You know how I am we're to surveil.
You're stronger than I am. You're stronger than I am.
Am I I wasn't when I lost my phone.
Speaker 3 (43:04):
You know, I meant as in with your You said
something to me many years ago.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
No or I've never forgotten it.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
You said, please stop talking to me.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
That's right. Don't make eye contact.
Speaker 3 (43:13):
She said to me, Nathan. If some people don't like you,
you're doing it wrong. There you go, that's what you said.
So to cut through properly and to have a career
it's true, means some people are going to have to
not like you.
Speaker 2 (43:24):
If you look at the landscape of people and people
are so terrified of people not liking them, it also
means that they're terrified of speaking a truth. It's the
truth as it stands. Happens to be out of vogue.
They become like a shell of themselves. They become impersonators
(43:45):
of humans, whereas what you get on the buck up
is authenticity, a hag and a dag.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
We've got a new little motto thing for the logo.
So here's my hot take on Facebook marketplace. Because I've
been scrolling now for my other account, the real one,
but not doing anything yet. Not getting involved. Here's my
hot take, Kate. If you're putting something on Facebook marketplace,
it should be free. Shut your face. I'm coming to
your house and I'm getting rid of that thing for you,
(44:17):
and you also want me to give you money?
Speaker 2 (44:19):
Are you kidding me? No? Free?
Speaker 3 (44:22):
Everything needs to be free.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
No, cut him off, cut him off. No, ridiculous. You're
going to take things that are worth money, a lot
of things like we've I'm coming to your book and
taking it from you. Yeah, and you're giving us money.
Speaker 3 (44:37):
That in itself, the fact that I'm taking it from you.
Speaker 2 (44:40):
You should have gone and got my birthday present and
that woman brand new in box? But why did she
have it?
Speaker 3 (44:48):
Why is she getting rid of it?
Speaker 2 (44:49):
She's already said was it stolen? I didn't hear.
Speaker 3 (44:51):
What did you say? What did you say?
Speaker 2 (44:55):
Headboat of a wearing headboat? She said it out loud,
five feet away from her daughter. She bought two, one
for her herself, this woman's daughter, and her daughter didn't
want it. Is that right? Sach okay? So oh, can
we just reflect on this for a moment, spectacle. I
did say that Valvo before. Are you medicators and you're
(45:21):
not medicating?
Speaker 3 (45:21):
I can tell when i'm raw dogger, I can tell
to listen.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Did you literally not hear that? I didn't know that happened?
Speaker 3 (45:27):
But to be fair, I listened to all the time.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
You're like my husband, who who's.
Speaker 3 (45:34):
The more reliable one out of ask to you if
something needs to be done?
Speaker 2 (45:39):
You are? Who's the better listener? You are when you've
got your phone back to our money back guarantee. Sorry,
you will feel better at the end of the podcast
than you did at the start.
Speaker 3 (45:55):
Flot subjects that lady's mistake was a mistake, and now
Sash's doing her a favor by taking it off her hands.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
It should be free, and she's doing Sash a favor.
It should be selling it for half of what it
would cost in it should be it should be free. No, everything,
everything our address? What's our address? Her was old school radio? Here,
you know? Out go on?
Speaker 3 (46:23):
Please don't a telegram to the buck. I'm looking at
stuff like a coffee table, right, someone's put this coffee
table up? He out sixty dollars? Really you want sixty dollars,
I'm coming to your house to get it. Let's just
let's call it even.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Happen when Peter sold a little fire that we took
out from upstairs at our house. What you sold fire?
I told you a little fireplace. What do you call them?
A little wood heater? Peters sold it for seven hundred dollars.
He said, there was a bidding war. Someone else offered
one thousand dollars, but he'd already agreed to the first guy.
(46:59):
And when the first guy arrived, he only had six
hundred and fifty dollars. And Peter said, sorry, mate.
Speaker 3 (47:10):
Than you telling is how bartering works.
Speaker 2 (47:13):
But for your density, Peter went, Normally, I'd go, oh yeah,
fair enough, but he goes, I could have sold it
for a thousand dollars and I didn't. I honored it.
And then the guy turns up with not enough.
Speaker 3 (47:22):
I feel that you're selling something that's been in that house,
probably for several decades, and it's probably genuinely something I'm
talking about talking about your ike on.
Speaker 2 (47:32):
The furniture weekend three years ago. You want sixty bucks, okay,
and here's my Facebook marketplace conclusion. Okay.
Speaker 3 (47:40):
That coffee table you want eighty bucks for and you
want me to come and organized to get it. That
same coffee table four hundred dollars new online. That money
buying it new is worth not having to message a stranger,
go back and forth, get an address, work out a time.
All right, the money, I am just going to buy
(48:03):
everything new?
Speaker 2 (48:08):
Is that okay? Is that okay? You can do whatever
you lae me? You can do whatever you lae.
Speaker 3 (48:15):
I'm very very bad at small to you know what?
Speaker 2 (48:18):
You also? You got someone's driveway? Do you ring? No
one makes small talk? Do you knock? I bought a
sink of Facebook mark and it wasn't right. It's a text.
Speaker 3 (48:33):
From making her debut on the text from mom my
mother in law Gail.
Speaker 2 (48:41):
I thought she never wore Gail. Welcome to the text
from Mum's segments. So I mean she's got a mind
like a steel trap. I thought, yes, her whole existence
would be predicated on avoiding this very secret for everyone.
Speaker 3 (49:00):
My mother in law is a divorce lawyer, and we
don't have a prenup ll. That's our Facebook marketplace.
Speaker 2 (49:07):
Roll the door set better for I don't know. Actually
