Speaker 2 (02:16):
I love helping the good people of this country.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, not all heroes were capes, but Matt does. Now
we have Tony on the line.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Hey Tony, what's going on? Welcome to the show. Tell
us your problem this week?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Hi, Brie, it Hi Maddie. So basically it's my sister
in law. She has recently moved home from the US
after splitting with her husband. She's now back in Australia.
She's obviously requested from my husband and myself if she
can come and stay with us. We've obviously said yes,
and we're now over six weeks later and there's been
(02:51):
no formal discussion around where to next, how do I
bring this up? How do I approach f.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Has she found her feet?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Are they look she's found a job? Put it that way,
and there's still been no discussion.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Is there a particular reason you don't like her at
your house in terms of like you don't get along
with her?
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Is she met sees the house too small? Like what's
what's the go?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
You're right, so we have two young small children at
home as well, and I guess I'm just wanting to
get my own family lifestyle back in line. Like it
makes it difficult when we've got children as well and
she's kind of coming and going at her own pace.
It just it's that one extra add of oh do
we need to think about her for dinner? Do we
need to incorporate her own this and that and that
(03:33):
can I don't know. I just would love to know
where to from here.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Does she have a worse habit?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Good question. I would probably say she's not very kid orientated.
He she's never had children, and I will say that
probably irks me a little bit when she's in our
phone with children and she she doesn't have the keenness
or the eats to play with them. And she's a
kid a little bit.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
How old is she?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
And my follow up question is does she pay you
anything to contribute?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
So she's early forties and at the moment, she's just
been giving us fifty dollars a week just for a
little bit of amenities.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Now that's a bargain.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
That's a cost, no wonder, that's your first mistake. You
should have charged them all a lot more than that.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
She's not going anywhere for fifty dollars a week.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
You've made it too cushy. I think it's it's never
been more fitting for me to give my advice in
a situation because I have been your sister in law.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
You were a blood.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I have found myself in a situation where I lived
in London for a long time four years. I was
with a partner long term. We broke up. I came back,
I had nowhere to stay, and my sister and her
husband welcoming into their home and they had young children
as well. It's scared around the similarities. I think I
stayed about two months. Okay, that's a right though, I'm say.
(04:51):
But eventually I did get kicked out. And what they did,
gradually they just made the environment for me more and
more difficult and unenjoyable to live in. So they had
a lot of things storage wise, like a mountain bike.
They had an old chainsaw. They would store it in
the room that I was in. So over a period
of a number of days you're sleeping on a bike,
(05:13):
more and more things will get dumped in that room.
And then just to add to that, then the husband
would come in at four in the morning, get ready
for work, and he would just make it worse and
worse and worse as a living environment. So what I
think you need to do is implement this with your
sister in law, so you know, put the kids in
her room at like midnight.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I think no, I think you just be passive aggressive,
like you're at dinner.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Not passive aggressive, but you.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
All having dinner and you're just like, hey, Shelley, how's
the house hunting going, Like have you had any success?
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I think it's just a question, and.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Like, surely she's forty, Surely she can read between life.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
You can put used nappies. You can put used nappies,
put them in a bag, leave them in a room.
And then you want to make it so she is
forced into the decision to move out.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
But surely, guys, surely at forty and single, you are
wanting to get back on your feet dating wise, and like,
or you.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Just think she's not even remotely wanting to move out.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
It costs a living crisis fifty bucks a week. Mind,
let's be honest, who's going to move out?
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I do like Maddie's approach, so and I do you
think we need to start just ye making life harder
for her.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
I didn't like the passive aggressive. And you can't just
throw doting nappies in.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
A room, yep, absolutely you can. Do you have any
stories like a shed at the moment, Tony.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Absolutely empty that out, put it.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
In her room, empty it out, put her in when
she goes to work.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
When she goes to work, just put a couple of
things like a lawnmower or put it in the room.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
Tony.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
I'm so sorry. I don't think we've given you any advice.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
She's accepting the advice. Don't apologize, britt Tony, You're welcome.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Thanks guys, it's actually helpful, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I have just seen there's a new sport taking off.
It's over in the States, but I did have a look,
and there's some stuff going down here in Oz. In
the States, they are up in the anti for ten
pin bowling.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
What like more pins or how they're doing it?
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I guess she could call them pins. They're doing it nude. Yes,
they're doing nude ten pin bowling. Now correct me if
I'm wrong, But doesn't classify as nude. If you still
need to wear those bowling shoes because you can't bowl
your there's like rules to bowling, right, and one of them.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
Is you have to have the special shoes.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I actually think though, I think your feet the skin
would be sticky enough on that floor. But what I'm
really worried about. I don't know if it's the same
with women and your bits, but I would be all
over the place. I need to be contained. I want
the safety, the security of butt huggers undies.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I think the only reason it would work for the
tenpin bowling is it's not an extreme sport, right.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
They don't have pace, they're not running. I don't think
it's all.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Not offend the bowling community, Coney.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
But this is where I think it's funny. And I
have a photo here for you. You cannot see anything.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I had a little look and in Australia this has
gone under the radar.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
They have like a nood Olympics.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
They actually called it the nood Olympics for many years
until the real Olympics came and said, we don't want
an associate with that, you need to change the name.
So it's now called the Nude Games. But it's all
the Olympic sports that they do nude.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Have a look at this. This is a sprinter.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Look at the pot Oh it's very and people in
the audience are loving it.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
But that's where I think it's like, surely you're not.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Wanting to do one hundred, two hundred, four hundred and
eight hundred meter races with your member flapping around.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
It looks like an absolute spectacle. Look at the audience.
That's a good atmosphere.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Definitely one sport that you had to do nude or
would it be.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Look I have I've danced on stage naked. I did
a show called The Full Monty.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Can we bring that footage?
Speaker 2 (08:52):
And actually you know that I want to. I have
to say, when you're in a position where the adrenaline
is pumping your manhood, it's like the body knows that
it's it's non essential. It's a non essential part. So
I think it conserves the blood her main areas, like
your limbs when you're about to exert a lot of energy.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Is that what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I have never been smaller in my life than when
I was about to go on stage and dance and
take my clothes off. For those who have just joined,
it's for a TV show, but it's it was like
it was. It was kind of inverted, if you know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
So do you on that show? Do you hide it?
Or are you actually dancing and it's just freeing out there.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I was looking at my mum in the front row.
It's your mom, came to see. She was sitting next
to Laura and she was she was cheering it on.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
How long is it there?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
For? Which were the member like, because I know you
dance a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Then it's short. It's short, But I've always it's no,
what's short not? I mean we're talking. We're talking thirty seconds.
I wish I was longer, but about thirty seconds, it's
not that long. But I've always wanted to have the
self confidence to just go to a newdict beach and
just not care.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
You know who does that? Producer Grace, she loves a
neody beach. I do love a nudi speech?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Or what do you like about it? Grace?
Speaker 4 (10:12):
Just freeing.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah, it's just something about it. Everyone's there, everyone's it's
a real community. People actually make way more conversation at
a neudis speech than a regular beach, which I'd love
less of.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Do you see people than outside of the neudist speech
or do you normally just reserve the meetups in location?
Speaker 4 (10:29):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Yeah, I don't know that I've seen anybody outside of
the nudist speech.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That I had seen on the Have you been to
the Nudist Games?
Speaker 4 (10:36):
No, maybe that's for you.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
You're a dancer, yeah, I'm not very athletic though gymnast
nude dancing a lot of poles.
Speaker 4 (10:45):
There's a lot of pols.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
But do you know what I like? I like the
fact that we're open to suggesting it as an idea,
like a weekend activity. Boy, I just think we could
broadcast from a nude beach.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
I don't know if you and I would want to
be there broadcasting news.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Did you not hear how free it was?
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Do you want to look at me nude and talk?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I want to be as free as what Grace was
talking about. That feeling. That's what I want to achieve.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I'd do it if I could put little shells over
the places, so I.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Was like a mermaid, Brittany. Have you ever been attacked
by a child? Wow?
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Ah, no, I can't say.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I have producer Grace. Have you been attacked by a
child recently?
Speaker 5 (11:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Emotionally I was bitten by one.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Well, there we go.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Is that what you mean? Yes? I think that's standard.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Who was the child?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
It was one of my nephews, the little chompers, you know,
when their teeth are coming through and they're learning, and.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, mate, it's dangerous being a parent out there. It's ruthless.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
He really lost a finger.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I was attacked on the weekend. Just gone Okay, and
I'm finally ready to talk about it.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
Okay, what happened?
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Well, you know I like to go around on my
ear bike. Yeah, you love any bike. I love cycling,
and it's just it's convenient, right. The issue is, and you.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Don't have to peddle as fast.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I don't have to peddle that much. I can just
cruise the streets, the winded my it's relaxing. I distress.
But the issue is, you know, there's some routes that
I take where I'm like, am I allowed to be
on the footpath or not?
Speaker 4 (12:18):
I think you're never allowed on the footpath.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
I think e bikes are classified as like a road
worthy vehicle.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
So what I do though, there's a little shortcut that
I like to take down the road from my house,
and it's where it's almost like four roads converge and
they're all dead ends, and there's a park in the middle.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Okay, Robert Frost, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
It's a smart joke.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
So I go off the road, I go through the
park and I take this little shortcut and I'm very
mindful when I go through the park because I don't
want to be going too fast on the e bike. Okay,
I don't want to offend anybody or have people go
oh buddy, hell you know these people on e bikes,
so they're so inconsiderate. Yeah, so I go very slow.
I have a little speed up on my e bike,
and I got about ten kilometers per hour. Okay, very considerate.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
So on this day I went through the park going
very slowly, and I saw in front of me a
young boy, he must have been about five, maybe six,
and he had in his hand a particular object pine cone. No,
it was a semi automatic water pistol. Have you seen that?
Speaker 4 (13:29):
He took you down to what.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
They do, Like the future is here, guys. Kids these
days don't even have to grow up knowing what it's
like to pump pump.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
Oh you got to pump like ten times to load.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Get like one shot out. Okay, not these days kids,
These days they pulled the trigger up. It's wild. Is
it just water?
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Sorry, you make them very dramatic. Is it just so
you just got sprayed with water? That holes, That's what
this story is.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Produce a grace. Let me talk to you now. So
I look at this kid, he's shooting another kid. I
spot him I'm like, this is the troublemaker. And then
all of a sudden, the kid looked at me. We
lock eyes. He then takes the gun away from the
little girl that he's shooting, and he all of a suddenly,
(14:20):
Let's not get hung up on the details, guys. He
then looks at me and moves the gun or water pistol,
whatever you want to call it, water gun at me,
and he starts to pull the trigger. I'm getting shut
I'm getting hit.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
If I was there, I would do the same thing.
I think this is hilarious. I'd feel it with cordials
so it's sticky.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Okay, that's just the type of person that you are.
Once again, produce a grace directing the rest of the
story towards you. I am getting shot right in the face, okay,
and I'm going ten kmeters per hour to be considerate.
And what do I get in return? Water straight to
the face.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
What'd you do? Run them over?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I know I thought about it, But then behind him
was a parent, and I look at the parent as
a gesture of like, control your child, and then he
looks at me and goes hands in the air. It's
not my kid, not my I thought you're about to say.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
He looked at me and pulled.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Out, So I then so I called away. I'm drenched.
I didn't know if I should stop.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
Are you upset?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
What? I didn't know if I should say something to
the child or just ride away with my pride somewhat intacted.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
I just feel like you were riding really slow, like
if they could attack you that much as you were
riding past, and then you need to pick.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Up the pace.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Look, you know, once again, very considerate on the e bike.
I want people to know that.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Look, it could be worse. You could have got egged.
That's way worse.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
That could have.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Knocked you up.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Remind me never to tell you a story and the
hope that I'll get some sympathy from you, not to know.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
Not from a water well. Be safe out there everyone.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
If if you're on your e bike and there's a
water pistol, watch out for the parks
