Speaker 1 (00:02):
Imagine, if you will, that you are in a place
of great beauty. Some teenage boys walk past you, they
yell out, hey, bitch tits.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
The world you see is a place of paradox of
beauty and cruelty.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
It will cut you off at the knees, then gift
you a pair of easies. And that, my friends, is
why you always always need a buck up.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Ah we go, the buck up is back.

rust challenge. Such a French, the greatest producer in.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
The land, Kaitline Brook. Yes, hello, Nate foul. We have
to explain to our lovely buckheads. It's first day back
at school for us. You have freshly landed from Italy,
hence the voice and the navy not congestion, not fresh.

Right, and I hit all my milestones except of course
the writing the book.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Hang on before you continue doing it again forgetting my
friend to plug.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
This is the greatest up live so we've been. We've
done three lbers in Melbourne. Also that brilliant the funnest
La La and our Sydney buckwits.

Another places, another places, But we're working, we're slowly, slowly.
The opera House, the opera my god, yes, crazy.

There's no bigger, more iconic venue.

Speaker 3 (02:54):

Well as if we imagine, imagine, I have made them.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
At the MCG.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
We're called crowds with them for the buck up. One
hundred and ten thousand more than turned doctor siege along
Big Collingwood in November nineteenth. Oh yes, November now just
for laughs.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
That's the just flass festival, which is also very cool
that we get to be part of that case.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, we love it.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
A bunch of down up shows, but only a very
tiny select bunch of I think only two podcasts.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Can we just say that one of them We've got
to say that are going to sign. It's one of
those festivals where you've got to be invided.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Oh my god, it's like totally can't just designed you
want to go there and literally matter who you are,
like even Kim Kardashian, unless you want to heart back
to the days when.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
She was going out with Pete Davidson. Really, I mean
then she could have gone but just solo, No.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Just for laughs, Sydney but Live nineteen.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
How did people do it?

Speaker 3 (03:58):
I just said that, just just for that's the website.
I think tickets have been sold already, which is very exciting.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Special mentioned to Sarah Harris.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Oh yes, do not.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
I've got tickets for you.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Oh that's nice.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Yes, yes, because she sent me an annoyed message as
annoyed as she gets.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Speaking of of annoyed messages, let's talk about buckhead Sarah,
who has messaged us?

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Is it Sharris?

Speaker 3 (04:23):
No different? Sarah? Sarah h however, but a different one.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
It's different. How do you know it's not because.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
This person's real surname? Is there going to say it?

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Okay, you gotta go doctor, We love Choris.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah, docs, I doesn't mean again when people find out
what you're.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Doing, when you reveal for someone's address, their real name there.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Whatever, and then she gets like bullied by other buckets.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
By the way, crank up the cooker.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh, here we go.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
I think we've got to start thinking about what we're
going to do. When the E Karen brings in her
rules in for December, which is supposedly aimed at children
but will affect all of us us.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
What on earth are you talking about the.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Rules they're bringing in for children having social social media rules?
That E Karen that they brought him from America beef.
She's an E Karen that they has got the beef
with Elon, who she used to work for. That's why
she's like, get them off.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
I mean, it's not the worst thing to get them off.
The social media is come on.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
But they're not going to get it. It's social media.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Key hurts my feelings and number forty one year old man.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Well, don't worry unless you want to put in every
detail and be tracked by the Communist Party of China.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Cook her up, you cook her up.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
You'll be so happy come December.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
They're tracking anyway, they're listening. We all know Sarah h
buckad messages. Okay, usually this pod is an ADHD fever
dream that is comforting. And I never want to be
in an ADHD treatment pusher or cooker. But o MFG.
Today's app Monkey Emoticon, the EIGHTHD Life Admin angst was

(06:03):
very real today.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Really giving her no not this was it that the
Circus Talk. The Circus Talk was so delightful. I haven't listened.
I actually listened to it but with jet lag and
I found it really gave me a buck.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
This this it will be, but it will makes sense.
It'll be linear. Oh you just wait.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
I don't know you're putting me off. I don't like her.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
We love Sarah h ol Bie.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
We love Sarah H. But if you bummed me out.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Hey, welcome back to Australia. Your last three episodes have
been ship.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Yeah that's right of wo Come see Sydney.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Opra, Welcome home, thank you. How's the book all right?

Speaker 2 (06:52):
So that has also bummed me out. So for people
who don't know I'm writing a romance, it's a a
Now I found a good way to describe it.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Kelly and he and Callie.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Peter says to me about a month ago. I don't
like her name Kelly, I went, It's not Kelly, it's
Calli Calli.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
You showed him.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
See if i'd call it Kelly spell Kelly c A
double L I E.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
I'm sorry, but that is what cal It's a perfect cahill.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
You know you're doing Alli named after Lily Callum Lily?

Speaker 3 (07:39):
Is it written in third person? First person? It's written
in third person, so we're going to see her name
a lot.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yes, that's right, it's goodly. Do you have a problem
with Calli such?

Speaker 3 (07:49):
No, I think Kelly with K E L L Y
is better than whatever you've come up.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
We become What's wrong with Me? Past? Whoa? And How
Great Are Women? Podcast will become one of those anyway.
So why was I telling you that, oh you are?

Speaker 3 (08:08):
I asked how the book was because you went to Italy.
So that was my to have some alone time, to
be alone to write your romance novel with no distraction.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
A couple of things that meant a couple of things. One,
I was traveling on my own for the first time.
I saved my adult life. But in twenty years.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Question number one, Yeah, did you miss any flights?

Speaker 2 (08:29):
No? I did.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
Question number two, did you get lost on any trains?

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Not? Not permanently? Well yeah no, but you know what
I mean, not that it made me to hire a
car yes, ide and drove on it. Okay, So when
I hired a car, yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Didn't even think you were going to get the car. No.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
But also before I got to the car, I had
to find the driver at the airport in Milan. That
was that's not easy.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
Why can't you just jump into a taxi airport?

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Oh? I could have.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
You didn't want to?

Speaker 2 (09:04):
My girlfriend said, have someone meeting you.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
It's much better holding a sign.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
You know. They were very worried about me. I intercepted
a text in which my girlfriend Karla said, why didn't
we put an air tag in her banner? Right? That's
how everyone was about me, Sash, What were you most
worried about? I think everything. Yes, yes, that's probably No,
that's true.

Speaker 3 (09:30):
There a couple of years ago, do you remember Cody
and I were very close. We had flights book to
move to America. Yes, that's right, Cal's that you're going
to move to America. I ended up falling through the
very last minute. But we were taking the dog, and
that's a big process. Yes, And I got into an
email fight with the people that transport the pet because

(09:52):
they wouldn't let me put an air tag in the thing.
Oh you're taking my dog. I'm putting an air tag
in that cry eight And they were seeing them we're
not allowed to and like to get stopped in customs
if it's in there and all this stuff, and we
had like this, I find that odd. Thank you, you reckon.
You're going to take my daughter from me and I'm
not going to put it.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yeah, there's right. I mean they're lucky that you weren't
trying to squeeze into the crate. Week I tried with
a little first.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
To do, looked into how much it was to fly
her private Oh, to get into like some other person,
because there's a website where you can book. If enough
people want to do it, you can get a private jet. Oh,
you can find twelve other people that will spend fifty.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Grand each fifty grand.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
It was fifty grand per person. But you can take
your dog.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Oh so you get the flights as well.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
Yeah, yeah, you're on the flight with the dog. But
it was thousand dollars one way. Yeah, right, and one
person you had to wait until like sixteen other people
also agreed to do it. You couldn't afford that anyway.
Interesting though, isn't that weird? You can take Yeah, you
can allow dogs.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
So you know a lot of luggage places, like a
lot of airlines don't like people putting air tags in
these suitcases as well. I'm like, why wouldn't they like that?
You know, you always see if you get into an algorithm,
and it's Peter's favorite thing. Now there's always that robot
voice that people are using tracking down my last luggage

(11:22):
in Mississippi, and then they go to a deserted river
bank and there are some open suitcases with all their belongings.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Strewn over the grascinet.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, without the air tag, you're never getting those soiled
garments back.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
And define my iPhone absolutely works. I never really trusted
that there And a couple of years ago, of course,
I lost my phone and then I went to the laptops.
It doesn't even work. Opened my laptop did the find
my Phone thing on the Apple Mac thing and it oh,
the dot was flushing at some house. I was like,
oh my god, it actually worked. And the bravery I have.

(12:00):
I just went to the house and I knocked on
the door and a sweet old lady answered it. And
she has two dogs, and she said, I found that
phone at the oval this morning, and she just had
the phone in her kitchen. True story.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
All right, I've got a story. This won't surprise you.
It's not quite as uplifting, although it is amusing. So
the suburb we live in is an interesting suburb. There's
a lot of people who on gribe them as illties. Illty.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
I was there for five years. Yeah it was, because
it's gotten a lot worse.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Basically, we put them at ease with our tax dollars
to provide services for them and pour them into a
bottomless well. That's what we do. That's fun.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
That's a cooker.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
I don't know, is it inaccurate? I don't think it is.
Sarah stick to topic, so we ween. So Peter came
out to his van and found a woman scrabbling through
his glove box, and he goes and he's very good.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
And that's me, Sash.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Begins the origin story anyway, and he goes get out
of my bloody car right in a you know. So
she goes, tell me, I thought it was you know,
they were always like I thought that my great car.
You know, they always knock at your cat. I'm looking
for Eric. This is emmy count You're always like, no,
you're not just anyway, They've always got the sound.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
It's got real good.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
I'm not far from that, you know. I've got a
real and.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
If someone's going to see you, you would be fossicking.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
I thought it was bad. Could ease? I could easily
one day?

Speaker 3 (13:42):
What's gonna go to there? Totally would?

Speaker 2 (13:46):
I thought this was my car. I don't know I
have because I've been trying to brank someone will have
a fake collar saw stuck on us. Anyway, so he
goes go on, get out, and then she goes, you know,
off down the road, and he goes, you haven't taken

(14:08):
my phone, have you? That's why he ducked out to
his car. He'd forgotten his car his phone. She goes, nahna,
I haven't got your fine. She goes lurching off down
the road and Petty goes, my car phone's and he goes,
she's taken my phone. Afterwards, he's like, what an idiot
am I that? I just say to a crackhead, you

(14:29):
haven't taken my phone? They say no, and I accept
their answer anyway, So he comes back inside. He does
find my phone. Sure enough. The phone is lurching off.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Really, you can see that down to the detail.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Down to the near sal pos right anyway, so he
goes down there. He's so annoyed. He drives down there.
He pulls up next to there she is, and he goes,
you lied to me, Wow, you did steal my phone.
She again, sorry mate, and hands the phone over. What
about what a citizen? The lesson of that is that

(15:09):
find my phone is great, And I'm gonna personally email
the E Karen so that when these changes come into
place in December, if I ever need my phone, she
will know exactly where it is at all times. Yes,
surveillance is great.

Speaker 3 (15:26):
Really, like we have gone pro surveillance on the buck
Ey totally. What a plot twist, I know it, And
people will write the plot twist in your book that
would happen. I'm guessing up two up three Yes.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
At two end of act two here we go. Yeah,
a big plot twist.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Who decides when you write a book? Yeah, I've always
wondered this, Who decides when a chapter finishes?

Speaker 2 (15:47):
This is such a good question because I have written
four chapters that are like fourteen hundred words and one
chapter that is five five and a half thou yeah, no,
that's right. So there's no consistency to the length of

(16:08):
the chapters. And when I was reading that long chapter through,
I went, this is actually this could be four shorter chapters.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
I have another week like a question, as you are
an author, what's the point of chapters? Do I need them?

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:21):
Of course you do it like paragraphs in any writing.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
Well, paragraphs are different. I understand, well, you're taking a breath,
so it's for a breath.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Yeah, it's for a breath. It's for the reader for
a reset. It's also gives you a place to mark
so that people like people don't sit down and read
a book all they might will be so engrossing in
a you know, one hundred and forty pages or two
hundred pages in one felse.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
So you're your six take italy. Someone else edited the
chapters for you. They helped you.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
I wrote those chapters in that you just knew. Well,
it was just how long as a story take to tell,
Because that was a biography. They were real stories, whereas
in a fiction. You're right, How do you know? When
I was interviewing Sally Hatworth, yes, she's and I told you,
she said a brilliant thing to me where she said,

(17:15):
when you're stuck, she said, I just start aiming to
write three hundred and fifty words. Three hundred fifty words
is so doable. You'll just sit down and go that's
all I've got to do, and then you end up
doing more. The other thing she said to me is
write fast and write bad. Oh my goodness, it was
so good. Best advice to write bad verse. Yes, it

(17:39):
doesn't matter if it's bad about rhythm, yeah, and it's
about unlocking something in you. It's always easier to rewrite
than to write. Then nothing is worse than the empty page, unless,
of course, you're going out with someone whose page is
too full.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
But she came home with many pages, not blank.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
No, I wouldn't say many, because every day I wrestled
with myself Hello on my own, and I've taken myself
into this vineyard and olive grow in Pulia, which is
down on the heel of the boot of Italy, Italy
shaped like a big over the knee boot. Come k

(18:20):
me boot by one of the three Musketeers.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
Is that in one of the chapters? But then you
went down to the toe, didn't you?

Speaker 2 (18:29):
No, I didn't go to Sicilia. Are you Sicily is
the ball?

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yes? Yes, yes, so.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
Mush because Sash was in Italy when I was there.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
You didn't see each other.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
We actually didn't.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
So back to the story about the driver.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
All the way.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
I want to make Sarah h happy.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
No, that won't make her happy. She'll find something else
to complain about. I've really got a set against I'm
going to have security on the door.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Let me say this about your travels. Yes, I want
to pull both of you up on there, and I
think people listening will understand these people. Yes, there is
no one more arrogant in the world, more happy with
themselves yeah than the international traveler who traveler who does
carry on? Only if I hear either of you say

(19:17):
one more time that you had carry on only on
the way, on the way, carry you said on the
way carry on, didn't I had two? That's just you.
Sasha French, Sasha, French. You also flew at the point
he ended the plane and yes, carry on only.

Speaker 2 (19:33):
Carry on only, and used it as an excuse to
not bring back presents, including to her own son.

Speaker 3 (19:40):
You can marry Cody will get divorced, and you can
be happily of rather, Cody does carry on only terrible.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
But no, that's not because then when you come back
and say to us sorry name for instance, we would
carry on only, I go, you're pitiful. Did you bring
back for yourself?

Speaker 3 (19:57):
I didn't buy anything?

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Yeah, see that's say that's no, your tone's wrong. Hang on,
change the time. So you went to Italy, the land
of food and fashion, and brought back nothing. I had
lots of food, But how did you bring that back?

(20:18):
Hang on?

Speaker 3 (20:19):
Okay, but I brought carry on in a different area. Okay,
I brought actual present.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah, of course is from Italy, but yours is from
one of.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
My international Oh wow, so I got a Melbourne Airport present?

love as it pops on, hang on life, Such is life,
Such is life.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Thank you?

Speaker 3 (21:00):
I did you know what I did?

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Then? What did you do to do a mental juggle
from Italian to French?

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Wow, it was seamless, It was seamless.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
This I'm so thrilled with it. I'm so excited the
next time you need a tree.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
I love a tree. I love a sweet tree.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
That is I didn't even know there was such a thing.
It's a block of chocolate.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
Camel milk chocolate.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Camel milk chocolate.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
It's not like a typo camel milk.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
No, it's camel milk chocolate. I brought it back from.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
I'm not thrilled, but don't you know the.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Cookiness of it. It's so cooky.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
I mean it's some that we pick and choose what
animal's milk were? Okay, you having it's dumb?

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Yeah, but that's true. That was dog milk chocolate. Well,
no one's thrilled with that.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
I mean, no, you.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Cat milk.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
I kin'd of want to have a little bit now,
just like your hamel milk.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Imagine it was stink, stink, And if it doesn't stink,
I think that's very little.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
Okay, it smells nice, But I just want to say
something in our buckheats will really understand what I'm about
to say.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
What is it?

Speaker 3 (22:10):
It's seventy percent cocoa, mate?

Speaker 2 (22:12):
Is it dark chocolate? Well, I think that's better than
it being seventy percent camel. Give me to say, I
haven't put a glass in my heart.

Speaker 3 (22:20):
Good good crack sound. Just here we go, folks. That's
a very hard chocolate. Very hard camel milk goes hard.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Roll of polo? My mother, it's up to you.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
What is Lemma? Thank you for my Brasi. I love
love Chocky.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
We're all enthralled about you being in Italy. I don't care.
I'm recapping all right.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
I'll tell you one thing about because I've never traveled
on my own, Can I just say respect to solo travelers?
Very amazing people. I'm in too confident.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
I'm in two worlds with bragging about this because I
am off and away alone.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Do you go into a restaurant on you?

Speaker 3 (23:30):
But I'm alone, so half of the flights the.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Work's different from me someone emailing about that.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
Okay, you are looking and I've never been away a
pleasure alone. Ever.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
Have you ever, for a pleasure gone into a restaurant
on your own?

Speaker 3 (23:46):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Or only when you've been in at work? Yeah? No, never.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
I don't want to be seen alone.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
It's just strange, isn't it for some people? Some people
are so comfortable with it anyway. So you're looking at
a woman who for eight nights had breakfast. Oh no,
I saw a friend and we had lunch who happened
to be anyway, but pretty well, breakfast, lunch, and dinner

(24:18):
on my own. But you also you also have to
remember that because I was in an olive grove in
the middle of nowhere, in this stunning farm, this master
right in the middle of an massive olive plantation. What
it did was a huge vibes very eat Pray Love,

(24:40):
very Eat Pray Love.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
I think the book was good, The movie was very bad.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
If Eat Pray Love was called Eat procrastinate, then that
was totally.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Anyway, So you still figure out a way to procrastinate,
because even in a regional, rural Italian face, Yes, that's
exactly commitment.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
From my room, which was had a stunning vista onto
like the main restaurant building, there was a pot of boganvillia,
of course there was in a beautiful stuccoed you know,
and cats would sit on the fence and it was beautiful.
I would watch the sun climb up the boganvillia and
I would say to myself, when the sun gets to

(25:30):
the top of the pot, I'm going to start right,
I'm going to start.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
I'm going to say, have a chat. They're done by them.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
The sun gets to the top of the bogan villaa
I'm going to start writing. One day, I wrestled with
myself like that till seven pm, and I was in
my room and by the end of it it was
like a prison cell. And then I would.

Speaker 3 (25:53):
Go across your queue for sympathy.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
No, no, I'm just telling you the process. When I
met myself, we just no, just wrestling with myself mentally.
Maybe I was maybe I'm on Twitter reading about Charlie Kirk.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Maybe happened that was shocking. So that's that's a couple
of days.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
But then I would go across to the restaurant. And
because this place was a beacon, it was a very
beautiful place for travelers. A lot of older travelers, you
know who who buy straw hats.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
You know, they also love getting ceramic masks.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
Oh, yes, yes, I love them.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah Italy, yes, Venus in Sicily, my.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Dad, boy, they love a ceramic in gave.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Me some laxure the other day because I put it
out in the backyard.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
I knew some of those stunning Sicilian heads.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
So they did. But it was quite small.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Yeah, okay, Sash brought that was the one thing she
managed to bring.

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Selfishly intense. They're very intense.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Were watching white loatures heavy and our very camp.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
Yes, camp as all hell.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
So camp, but all of it is camp. Things very
hard when you're there. Also, you've never seen a country
more aside from the Middle East, where two men are
at lunch together.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
And they're making out.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Well, hold hands, hands and both of them very.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
All over the joint.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yes you do.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
You don't know who's doing. You just can bicycle shorts. Yes,
kissing men.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
He's got a swede loafers socks. Is that not a
and yet it's not.

Speaker 3 (27:46):
Man in the world smashes loafers than a bully.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Anyway, that's the delight of Italy that you've got someone pegged.
In fact, you've got someone as actually.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
A beautiful thing because you get a taste. I remember
when I was quite young, when you travel for the
first time to those sort of places, you go, oh,
this is a country that doesn't have toxic masculinity. This
is what it actually looks.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Ye.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
And you know, even in my Italian side of my
two uncles and hairdressers, and it's such an Australian thing
that you can't do certain things.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
And also they don't even have that, which I think
a lot of the women there lament about. But they
don't even have that concept of mckismo that they have
in South other Spanish speaking countries in South America, the
men have got that real mckismo and that has other
attendant problems. The Italian men don't have that. They have
the syndrome known as mummies boy. Yeah, a bit of.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
That, there's a bit of that. But I did ask
this question a lot, and I think anyone's ever been
in Italy will ask this question a lot of the
locals do you work? I just found myself so many
days going do you guys work?

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Like so interesting?

Speaker 3 (29:01):
I'm intrigued on money. How they do you work?

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Mate? What are you doing? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah, they do siestas and everywhere is dead from like
midday before and then they all come back out. I
get all of that, but I'd like to see that.
I'd like to see some people working.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Yes, but also it's a poor country that doesn't scan
like a poor country, like the median income is very low.
If it wasn't for the EU, they'd been massive trouble.
But they live like kings in terms of what we
believe makes happiness and any time, what does make happiness? Food, family, socializing, loafers,

(29:40):
taking pride in your appearance as opposed to all of
us who were like negative. Gimme through the apartment, but
I'm going to shuffle around in the check sea. It's
still in the fine out of someone's gu pos.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Sign me up to any I've never heard Australia described
so well. That's a chapter.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
You know, when you travel you recognize yourself.

Speaker 3 (30:12):
That's your character. Kayla k H I L I H
A H again.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
My husband. This is the mosteterussexual thing about you that
you have. Now you have really found yourself in the
colorition with my husband.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
I'm so sorry, so sorry.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
Against her name.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
He liked the space fact and the cards fact and
hates the name Think.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Of me, think of me a surname for her.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Oh that's fun.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
Did you hear my Italian sentence construction?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
I'm going to say something.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
My Italian got quite good over there, Sash, relative to.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Me, your Italian is good.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Me and Friedman said to me, I've never known anyone
that's spent longer in a country and speaks the language
so terribly. God it made me laugh.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
I disagree with that. No, no, it's very speaking to
someone who has Italian relative who doesn't speak Italian.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Yeah, why don't you?

Speaker 3 (31:03):
Because I can tell you it's a boring story. Let's
okay say this, But.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Why would that make it different from any of your
other story?

Speaker 3 (31:11):
She's back, folks, give me a halla.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Balloon suns that way?

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Karma got me? Oh calm, I got you because before
you went away, Sasha and I we we bullied you
about going Italy alone, Yes, getting.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Lost, which did happen?

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Oh? Yeah, I got lost that you survived.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
Everything is pretty well except for death is survivable, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
Hmm? I think that's yeah, makes sense.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
But for instance, the one day that I tried to leave,
I went because you know the where Poolia is, it's
got two c's on either side of the heel of
the boot right, you've got the adyer attic and you've
got the Mediterranean seat. This is the most geographic I've
ever learned. Anyway, So I went one day, I've got
to go to I've got to get out of here.
I've got to go to the beach, and also good

(32:04):
for the book.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
For the book.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
I set off in the car that I had rented
at the rental yard. An Italian man tried to pick
me up Hello, which was so in lovers sane get
into it, so insane, And of course he was like
because he also spoke some English. He tried to do.
He had some you know how you say, do they work?
He had two jobs apparently he told me I am

(32:29):
here for my second job. I went on, what's that?
And then it was something to do with car times anyway.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Makes sense.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
So I set off to the beach. On Google Maps.
It was twenty three minutes. It took me three hours,
and in the middle of it I had to film
a video. Where was I saw on the side of
a hill?

Speaker 3 (32:52):
What did wrong term?

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Barren and absolute? A field of barrenness looking out over
some vineyards in the disc and a medieval city atop
a hill.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
Nothing compares you in Italy and in Greece, nothing prepares
you for how barren it is, how barren in between
the lovely cities, in between the.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Up north, it's not down south of East and Sicily
as well. Anyway, I was so desperate I had to
stop and we under a fig tree that was the
only thing growing from this field of parlor rubble. And
then I was so desperate my bloodshied was so low.

(33:31):
I had to fossic around on the fig tree for
a for a fig but because it was so dry
and barren, all the figs were dry. And then it went, well,
people eat dried. Here was a good figure anyways, good
fig tree, fresh figs. It's really dunny.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
One sexual. I'm sorry, yeah, no, no one's going for
the fig mate, you know.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
No, no, yeah, it's the same way you wouldn't go
for the oyster.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
You want to call me. In other word, that was big.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
You wouldn't go for the oyster, would you, well, disgusting? Yeah, okay,
thank you.

Speaker 3 (34:09):
The disgusting loves them. And we know we've spoken about it.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
I've got a chance with Cody. I bumped into him
at the airport when.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
That was a very weird clash of worlds, the Dabbler
and the and the what are the co hosts?

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Yes, and the and the Bucks, the Star and the Dabbler.
Because you know of your over information, which I is
your door. Yes, you had told me that Cody was
going to be at the airport at the same night,
in the same lounge.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
Which was a very obscure lounge. It was a weird lounge,
really weird. I meant it as in meant, this is
an insane clash of worlds, not only like people travel
all the time, boring whatever, andone listens to this. God
knows how often Cody travels for work. But then there
was like, hang on, I think you're going to be
in the same lounge.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
And when I walked in, I hunted him down like
a dog and then and I went hello, and he
looked up, and.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
Then he was there with his second family he's just great.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Yeah with his second family was he was on Facebook
lovely wife and kids.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
Yeah, I thought so Slovenian pick.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
It up on that anyway, So I got terribly lost
that day. I ate dried figs from the tree. And
when I say dried figs, not like what you're buying
it when you.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Like a branch. It was a brand a branch.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
And then the other thing I remembered as I was
eating it. And I don't know if this is true
or not, every fig is full of wasp bigs.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Oh can we please?

Speaker 2 (35:42):
And that?

Speaker 3 (35:42):
Can we google that? Can we fat?

Speaker 2 (35:44):
That proved to be prophetic? So that again, every figure
is full of wasp bigs.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Every fig is filled with wasp bigs in what stage of.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
The I don't know. I haven't. I didn't do a dig.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
So if you didn't eat that fig, they would be
come what that's a good question, is that what you're
telling me?

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Don't know? I wouldn't. I wouldn't do you know what
I'm sorry take away it is.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
I never knew that figs and wasps were combined in
the circle of life because.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
I didn't talk to anyone for ten days, ten days
like the waiters at dinner. But because it was a
kind of a it was a touristy, they were servicing tourists,
they were not very engaging. And also I realized I'm
a very unpleasant person. Oh wow, on my own, like
I'm not social, not social, that's social. But I think

(36:39):
because I was in my mind.

Speaker 3 (36:41):
Get a wording with you any other times? What are
you talking about? Where's that cadin? We're all together?

Speaker 2 (36:46):
So weird, isn't it? But I think I was trying
not to distract myself.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
It's so have you ever thought so whether you bring
this up? What you look like from an outsider's point
of view when you don't know you're being looked at.
So I bumped into a guy.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Like a candid photo who wants that?

Speaker 3 (37:04):
But I bumped into an old friend the other day
in our new suburb that we've moved into, and he said,
so you have moved here, he said, I saw I
thought I saw you walking down the street the other day.
But two things. First, one make you laugh, he thought, oh,
that's nath because no, he's too tall. Ah. But then

(37:25):
the funny party goes and you looked too angry. Oh,
walking really angry?

Speaker 2 (37:31):
I think my face in repose, so like do I
have rest face in repose? My face and with its
Dutch gews collapses like the Twin Towns, like there is
nothing good happening from the neck up. It's just terrible.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
But I walk angry. I look angry. I was just
coming back from bullies.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Were you coming back from a back up?

Speaker 3 (37:55):
Going do one?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
No?

Speaker 3 (37:57):
But I really really stew from the stupid markay. Remember
this was like here, I don't know what day he
saw me, but like that's the only time I would
have walked under your question. Just ask me what I buy?

Speaker 2 (38:07):
So I look angry. I can't remember anyway, It's best
you never since.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
You should see what I've been doing. I keep clocking
myself walking until I like put on it a smile.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
I remember a girlfriend years ago, her mum saying to her,
I've reached the age in which I have to constantly
smile or I look like I'm angry. Ah, and I
isn't that amazing? And at the time I was like, oh,
that's a weird thing to say. Now I totally understand it.
You know, when you accidentally pick up your phone and

(38:38):
the cameras all the time you're just.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Like a thumb, like a thumb teeth.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
Imagine, and I'm like a thumb with teeth emerging from
the flesh dinner that is your neck.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
Or when you're the best line of the best is
when you're judging someone online. So you're seeing someone's Instagram,
You're like, they're an idiot, she looks awful, and then
you accidentally talk to your camera and you see.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
You in all the just the harndous, unfiltered truth of yourself.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
Is it the phone camera or the mirror? Is the
one that shows you your real one? There was camera,
there was an article about it.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
The mirror, and I love them, that's why. And I've
got a mirror face.

Speaker 3 (39:25):
Like if I have a good mirror and a bad
mirror in my house, so I just go to the
good mirror before I go out.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Because is it lighting or yeah, it's.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Basically pitch black in the room in a candlelit mirror.
I look very good in a can, but upstairs mirror
is good.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Yeah, okay, it's like in a dressing room. And if
I had a remember gather around children once upon a
time there was a thing or clothes shops anyway, why
they never learned this lesson that a con cave mirror
is very flattering and a convex mirror, so when it
nerves in slightly, it elongates everything and you look great.

(40:04):
You're talking about a big beand I'm not like talking
to a clownhouse. Yeah, I'm not talking crazy mirrors.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
Split my head into three.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
I've been by three hats. What I brought three hats?
St mirror down, but just a slight bend in it
is very flattering and light.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
There's a curve to our eye. The other way it's
just yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
So the slight, but the curve in your eye doesn't
curve things that you look at. Sure, you're talking about refraction.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
I want them to Oh my god, what's happened? Did
you study in Italy?

Speaker 2 (40:46):
Hang on? I just made that up. That might not
even be Please let me have this moment. Specsavers on
board and the other thing. When we were away, So
when my husband turned up where were we?

Speaker 3 (40:59):
I was gonna say that the karma hit me. Oh yes, yes,
the karma. So after all this teasing of you and
your travel and you're not paying attention to details. A
couple of weeks ago, it was in Brisbane doing some gigs,
did a little cute little solo show testing new material.
I met a couple of buckheads who came to the show. Hello,
Oh my goodness, very lovely.

Speaker 2 (41:19):
Shout out to buckhead Vicky, who I met in Muscus.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Oh wow, yeah international international, Hello Brisbane, Hello Bribe just
as far and I say the same thing there. Do
you work?

Speaker 2 (41:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (41:37):
I don't pay attention to things obviously. Sometimes Sarah hates
you message definitely think so you know how I really
struggle with what complete strangers think of me. And I
always just buckle under pressure and lie a lot and
just never really want to face reality to someone I
will never see again.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
What are you a shame?

Speaker 3 (41:55):
I don't know?

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Kate yourself?

Speaker 3 (41:57):
Yeah, you see me? To see me? Walker look angry
me too.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
So I didn't want to talk to anyone. Do you
know the shame that Peter and I both had. We
noticed when we were in Italy. We didn't want to
tell Italians that we had lived in Italy for two
years and left no because of how bad our Italian.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
A lot of that time was lockdown COVID so you
can get out amongst it the dialect, so.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
You don't want it. We both of us studiously avoided it.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
Next, people would say to us, Kate, as I said,
just remind yourself that there are people with who are Italian.
I don't know it.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
But the things what we're talking about is the weird
things that you feel shame about in yourself. Isn't this interesting?

Speaker 3 (42:42):
What do you do for living?

Speaker 2 (42:43):
Sush weirdly? Who should be riddled with do you work?
Racked with shame? Crippled with shame? Seems to stride confidently
into the world with Harry.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
And with their head helld high no prisoners really got
to you, hasn't it.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
It's just a carry on. I don't want it for you.
I don't want you to be that person flying over
carry on. I was so jealous of you coming coming
back with nothing, nothing, nothing to show. I mean, it's
not even a holloment. Yeah, that's right. So and also
not having some little trinket and treasure for yourself, that's

(43:26):
not right. You always have to have something. She's got
some masks that a great buy. And how can you
do that if you only have.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
I ever came back from Vietnam once with like seven suits.
You can wear any of them.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Of course not And then, of course, that's just how
it is. That's just how it is.

Speaker 3 (43:45):
You know. It's also when you come home from shopping,
old school shopping in the change room, and then you
get home and you put it on in your bedroom
and go, where was this in the change What? Do
I look so awful in this at home? But I
looked so good in the shop.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
Yes, yes, because I think it's comparison in the shop. No,
but also comparison to all the other horrendous things you've
tried on. So your psyche has to save you by
going on this one.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
That also happened when I was single. The next morning, Yes, exactly, God,
you were the best.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
You kiss a lot of frogs. So in a dressing
room at some point, if there's something that vaguely remember
resembles something that's not a frog, you're snapping.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
It up, taking it home.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
When you get home, you discover it's still an actual ruble,
and it's.

Speaker 3 (44:28):
You're desperate because you drove to the shop. I'm not
going home empty handed. This jumper kind of looks ship here.
I come here, I've come all this way. I'm taking
it over. Yes, just do it.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
Yes, yes, yes, So I have never been happier to
see anybody than I was to see my husband.

Speaker 3 (44:53):
Oh okay, that's nice. All that's nice, that's cute.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
Which lasted until probably six nights into our trip together,
when he got so drunk that he snorried like I
recorded him.

Speaker 3 (45:08):
But I'm drunk on what like lemonchallo just red wine.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
Red wine beer. We were somewhere in the restaurant, you
know they bring out the grapper at the end and
the god and he snorried like so loudly and drunk snore, yeah,
really drunk and such.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
It was letting off steam. He's I didn't teacher placement.
He needed it, he needed Did he do a little spewby.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
Oh no, he never does. His capacity for alcohol.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
Yeah, that's right, a little bit of a Queensland spew.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
But then he goes he gets back up into it,
doesn't he.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
Well, you're going for a run. An hour later we're
talking about where. Why are you crying in bed like me?
You've had one drink.

Speaker 2 (45:55):
I videoed me picking up Peter from the airport, and
the look on his face as he came out of
the arrivals hall was the look of a man who
doesn't believe that anyone's going to be there meeting.

Speaker 3 (46:13):
I wouldn't expect to see you need the car me neither.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
I'd had to drive a hund.

Speaker 3 (46:19):
Did you put the phone to get on the maps
to get there?

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Oh no, it doesn't matter initially. You can hold the
phone if you want, you're not supposed to do. You
can smoke, you can whatever. You can speed, they were saying.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
So you had the map on the on the seate,
the map, the phone on the stage. I had one
on the big screen. Oh there we go.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Okay, well but that was in German. That was really annoying.

Speaker 3 (46:40):
Oh you're getting yelled at. So I jump in the
newbra after the gig in Brisbane. Yeah, and I noticed
the hotel's not that far, but I just could not
be bothered walking back. I walked there to the gig,
so it was like a seven minute walk never sorry sorry,
like half an hour walk seven minute uber. I like

(47:00):
to walk there because I think about the show.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
I think about the always doesn't mean thh one I get.

Speaker 3 (47:06):
I go through the material that clears my head, you know,
and then uberback.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
And afterwards you've got to escape quickly.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
Get from the tomatoes and all the people screaming up
for a refund.

Speaker 2 (47:19):
Think about that the other day.

Speaker 3 (47:20):
What tomatoes? You know?

Speaker 2 (47:23):
And then I it's like write your book. Because of
medieval times and you know when they would go to
that what was that famous theater.

Speaker 3 (47:33):
Call to Shakespeare one Stratford upon Avon. Yeah, what was
it called the guild or something anyway, famous shaps.

Speaker 2 (47:43):
Anyway, So and you know the plebs were allowed into
the lower the stalls, and if they didn't like you,
they would throw rotten fruit and vegetables at you. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
Now my question is this, huh, what's the modern take
on that.

Speaker 4 (47:58):
No, in the old days did people go, I'm going
to the theater today, I'd better take I'd better pack
me calico bag with some rotten fruit and vegetables just
in case carry on only.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
Yeah, yeah, they actually was this someone out the front.

Speaker 6 (48:15):
Of the got your dirty, old ritten fruit vegetables here
in case the performance be a lesser one neat vos
performing tonight, you'd better get some real, some real.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
Do you know that?

Speaker 3 (48:34):
I get it? I would say that's almost like quite.
It's like a recycling thing or eggs.

Speaker 2 (48:40):
But throw some where they get their fruit and vegetables from.

Speaker 3 (48:44):
I don't know. This is all very good questions. I'd
a big nerd podcast answering.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
Yes, someone might one about buckwhits miles.

Speaker 3 (48:53):
This is up there. I'm not about to talk about
spaces or no, you can not the card the cards,
but you want to speak about this.

Speaker 2 (49:03):
Don't you think history would be very interesting if they
answered questions like that?

Speaker 3 (49:07):
I reckon the answer would be there if you look
at it, because.

Speaker 2 (49:09):
We know it's widely accepted. You know, when you get
put in the stocks in the town square, I'm so
shy of saying, bring back the stuff.

Speaker 3 (49:21):
So yeah, after like ten minutes, Yeah, like I should
be back at the hotel by now. Oh, so I
bring up the uber. Yeah, and it's still eighteen minutes
to go, and he's.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Eighteen minutes away from picking No.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
No, I'm in the car now, going back to the hotel.
And after ten minutes, I was like, I should have
been there at least three minutes ago, and we're still
eighteen minutes away, So like, hang on, what's going on here?
And I've put I've put the wrong hotel in right,
So I'm like, okay, so I'm going and the hotel
I'm not going to tell me that I've put in

(49:54):
the wrong hotel. Also, I actually don't technically know how
to fix that in an uber very locked in, Well,
you'd have to put in what do you do ad
while you're in there? But then what he goes back
to their drop and then goes to the other place.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
No, no, because you've already I don't know.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
What I'm saying. It's confusing. You can't change where you're
going once you're in.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
Was it a cousin from across the sea that who
was driving the uber in Briason? It might not be.

Speaker 3 (50:22):
I can't hang on because surely I can bring it up.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
I can run out history.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
But I was like, you know what, too embarrassed.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
So so wrong location, eighteen.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
Minutes longer, it more expensive than it then had to
be long And I was like, you know what I
cannot say to this person who I will never see
again in my life. Sorry, I put the wrong hotel in.
So I went to the wrong hotel and got out.
See your mate, But on the best performance of my life.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
I can't wait to get into in this out.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
The front of this one of those hotels that closes
at night that you need your pass to get into
so it wasn't even like a nice place.

Speaker 2 (51:02):
You couldn't get in there.

Speaker 3 (51:03):
Waited a couple of minutes. Now I can go back home.
It was him. It was the same driver was in Brisbane.
It was the same two things one I thought that
was never ever happened in Brisbane. In all the years

(51:25):
I've been taking ubers, I have never had the same
driver in the same night or ever again, like ever again?
Do you think you've ever got into an uber and said,
I've never had this guy before.

Speaker 2 (51:36):
Nice, you're looking at someone who grew up in Brisbane. Okay,
it's gonna happen anywhere.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
It's Brisbane. It was I. Hang on, it's a red camery,
hang on, hang on. I looked at the number plane
in him and he had to do a U turn
to come back.

Speaker 2 (51:53):
We probably wasn't that far an.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
I'm watching him on the map. He just went around
aroundabout and have to come back.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
Recognize you. It's me again.

Speaker 3 (51:59):
It's the that I thought, here we go, jumped in.
I went to the wrong hotel. Mate, he got did
you tell me? What else? Are we going to tell him?

Speaker 2 (52:10):
What? Did he say?

Speaker 3 (52:11):
He just laughed? Yeah, he laughed away, And then I said,
I just he didn't. He didn't ask any questions.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
You didn't say I.

Speaker 3 (52:18):
Actually I didn't say.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
Oh, my darling, I love you. We're very similar in
that regard. Driver, very similar. Bad.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
Yes, embarrassed, And I booked anver for the next day
to go to the airport, and I was nervous it
was going to be him.

Speaker 2 (52:33):
I realized something else embarrassing. I'll tell you next week.

Speaker 3 (52:37):

analyzing themselves?

want to be stoic.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
Stoic, that's right, they're very Yes.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
And also should I apologize to her for saying I
don't like her? Think? So okay, Sarah H. I didn't
mean that, you know, I just spoke as people often
do when they're angry. They're really angry at themselves. So, Sarah, h,

don't like myself.
