Speaker 1 (00:30):
I've done much, but yeah I'm not.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I'll beget and what I want. It don't matter where
I've done. This is the pickup.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Oh, happy Wednesday? Or what a time to be here?
I had Matt the greatest night last night? In case
you were asking, or.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Do I really want to know what happened?
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Well, my husband doesn't leave here.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
It wasn't that great.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
But you came to my wedding and I don't know
if you remember. My first wedding dance was to a
song called All That Really Matters by Teddy Swims.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
How does it go again? Sing it for me?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Don't do that? Go on?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Sing it? Oh really? Okay? Sing it?
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah, but it's Teddy Swims. And I got to go
to the Teddy Swims concert last night and he sung
my wedding song for you. Yep, he dedicated it to me.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
So lucky, But do you know what?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Do you know why?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
It was the greatest night?
Speaker 1 (01:19):
It was one thing to have gone and just like
experienced him live and have like reminisce on my wedding song.
But then we got invited backstage. I got to go
and hang out with them and stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
It was really cool. Hey, just a really quick question.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I didn't get a text or any requests.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Did you.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I know he didn't actually ask about you though.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Sorry, Okay, Well just know Britt that if I ever
get a nice invite, I will always extend it your way.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Well, it was really on the carp It was only
when we're leaving they were like, hey, because we are
actually interviewing Teddy Swims. He's coming on the show later
this week. I think on Friday, we're going to have
this chat with him. But because I'd already had that connection,
they were like, come backstage. And I was trying so
hard to be cool because I am. Anyone that knows
me knows how uncool I am. And if you look
at Teddy Swims.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
You're the cooler whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Ow wonderful, very temporary but fantastic co host Manny J
is in studio.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Let me sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Sorry, breaking news, Ashwicks, what are you doing?
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Breaking super loop super fast what is refreshingly fast internet?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Matthew and Britt.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Where did you actually come from?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I just waltz.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Look you just take a seat. Okay, take a seat
over there, Britt. I have to apologize. This is Ashwicks.
We have a podcast together two doting days.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I know who he is.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I'm just confused as to what he's doing here.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Well.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Look, we've had this little competition, if you will, the
last few days where we're being ambassadors for super Loop
and it's who can make the most noise.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
I've had a billboard. Okay, Ash got very jealous.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
This is great because I thought you were about to
say the competition is who could take my job on radio?
But I'm down for a different kind of competition.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
I'm not jealous. It's called competitive. Matthew.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Well it's gone too far. Okay, I'm at work right now.
You've broken in here. I don't know how you've gotten
through security.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You I got my bodyguards here.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I had to make a bold statement. I thought the
billboard was genius. It really hit me hard. I thought
I need something, and I thought he's got a new job.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Why not crash it. Okay, Well you win? Are you
happy now? I am moon. I think I should choose
who wins, just like Ash. Otherwise you'll never stop like
a dog with a bone. Hey, well you're.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Here, you may as well stay.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
What's been going on? Are you sure about that brick? Well?
Do you want here? He just hijacked the whole segments
like this is an audition. I'm here now, I am here.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
I do have a podcast with Matthew and Lauria's just
giving birth to their third child, And we do have
a segment on our show what Not to Say to
a parent?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yes, what not to say?
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Well, we do it just to inform people who may
be listening to our podcasts who are not parents. They
want to make sure they have enough information to never
offend anyone, even if it's accidental.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
All right, so I'm hearing like, not all heroes wear capes,
but Matt and Ash do absolutely.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
So Matt, do you have any examples off the top
of your dome? Yeah? Actually, you said this to me
the other day. You look tired. I think I said
that to you as well.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
I did back, and yeah, I say, and you pulled
me up immediately, and I went home. I looked myself
in the mirror, and I thought, I will never say
that again. Today you look great.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I don't think it's that bad. You just told me
you look like I'm wearing a costume and some address.
But you're a parent exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Wait to your parent and your your emotions are heightened,
your lacking sleep, your all sorts of things going on.
The last thing you want to hear is me say
to you.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
That you look tired.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
This cause that we are now in charge of it
extends beyond just the podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
It's everyday life.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You know, if someone says something inappropriate, we picked them
up on it then and there.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yes, and I've got one.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Actually, I witnessed someone telling me a story, a new
mum telling me a story. Right, There was a group
of us and she's telling us about her birth, and
she said how quick it was. And someone, a gentleman,
leaned in and said, oh, gee, that baby fell out
of here.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
What so sorry? Why can't you say that get out
out of here?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Genuine? You said, you're educating?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
What like?
Speaker 4 (05:14):
What is the is the offense?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
There's a couple of things there. It makes it sound
like it was easy, yes.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
One, and also makes it sound like she just just
fell out of it.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I don't want to. I didn't want to go down
that think.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
It just dis Afternoon radio guys, I can't you know
what I mean?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It totally discredits what that person has been through. Childbirth
is one of the most exhausting, relentless experiences of your life.
And for someone to just say cut you down and say, oh,
it just fell out of you, it's like saying that
someone who's run a marathon just did a hop step
and a skip.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Okay, Devil's advocate, because I do feel like as a
society we probably get hyper offended. I'm sure he just meant.
It was just a way of him saying like, oh.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It was a quick burth.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
It doesn't matter. That's the point, right You think this
is why this.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Is so important, because people like yourself, Britt, they're just
not educated.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Have multiple degrees.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
I'm very yeah, but yeah, you might be book smart,
but you're not street smart.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Well, I haven't had a baby fall.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Out of me, not yet.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Not yet. You haven't, and when it does, when it does,
go to cop.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It, I understand. Of course, it's it's like running a
marason every day of pregnancy. I'm joking in that sense,
but I do stand by what I said is like,
I think sometimes if this man would have meant no
offense by it, right, he's just saying, well, you had
a quick birth. Some people do it in forty minutes.
My sister get birth in forty minutes.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Some do it in like forty eight hours.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Definitely didn't say it to be offensive. Yeah, he said
it as a quick comment. But the quick comment is
not necessarily.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
And all I can say is Thank Heavens there are
men like myself like Ash out there educating the people
in the world, not just this country, but the entire world.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
A word that comes to mind is pioneers.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Right, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
The word you're welcome, Yeah, I think produced grace. The
other woman in the room is like, let's wrap these
boys up.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Something offensive to say, Let's wrap it up.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I'd say thanks for stopping by, Ash, but I.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Didn't have a choice anyway.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I'm out here and Matt.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I have had the most tumultuous couple of days with
my dog Delilah.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
What do is tumultuous mean? Like up and down?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Crazy, like a roller coaster, like roller coaster of emotions.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Just be careful with the big words around me, Britt.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Okay, sorry, not very smart than three syllables.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Stress. We can just kill it at the max. Okay,
stressful experience. Yeah, it was wild. Can I say that?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Why?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeld, I'm loud and clear. I've got Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
So my dog, Delilah, she's Australian Shepherd. She's the love
of my life. I don't have kids. I've had her
for four years.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And anyone that knows us you are married to Ben.
I sorry, Ben. My husband is the love of my life.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
But he lives in Italy, so I literally is my
dog and I I just she's just my world, you know.
And I know everyone loves their animals, but I just
love the next level. And so I went to Italy
to see my husband Ben, and Delilah was staying with
one of my best friends, Keisha, and and Keisha has
looked after her since she's a puppy.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
She's like a second mom.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
And so when I was overseas, I get a message
and it's a photo of Delilah's mouth and it's like
Keisha has shown me her gums, right, and there is
this really really nasty black circle, probably almost the size
of a twenty cent piece.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yeah, And Keisha was like britt have you noticed this before?
I swear this wasn't here like a week ago. And
I said, no, that looks nasty. But I got only
seat in a photo and she's like, I'm really concerned.
And she's like, are you happy for me to take
it to a vet? And I've always said to Kisha
whenever she has her or anyone that looks after my dog,
I say, you always just go.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
I'll pay whatever. If you're worried, it's fine. Question. Did
you send it to vet Chris Brown? I did?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I did, and so I was worried and Keisha was like,
I'm really worried. I know her really well. So she
took her to a vet and she was at the
vet for like an hour and the vet was really
concerned and the vet said, look, it looks like a
mass it could be cancer. And I'm like, Keisha, I
was like, she's four. So we'd sent a picture to
doctor Chris Brown, the Bondo Vet, because he's been a
(09:15):
friend of mine for a while. Obviously did Dancing Stars
with him, and I if you go through mine and
Chris's messages for the last couple of years, it's just
like it's very get I get like five free checkups
for my doggy here. And I just last message was hey, Chris,
still I had a poppy seed muffin. Is she okay?
That was my last message anyway. So Chris is like, look,
it's really hard for me to see, you know, he
(09:36):
said a few things it could be.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
He's like, but yes, like she needs to go to
a specialist.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Gosh, this is stressful, so wait for it. So then
this bet is like, you need to go to a
specialist asap. She needs to have a c T scan,
she has to go be put under and have a
biopsy and if it's cancer, we will deal with it.
Oh my god, I'm on the other side of the
world and I'm like beside myself, bawling my eyes out, crying,
and I was like, what is going on. I can't
lose my dog like cancer of the mouth.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, whatever it takes.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
So we called around and got her into a specialist
the next day, and it was going to cost a
bomb and I was like I don't care, like get
her in there, and I was waiting up throughout the night,
and so my friend took her in first. They cleared
the schedule because they were like, this dog's you know,
this couldn't be really mass read. So she gets into
the specialists. They get her on the table ready for
(10:22):
an operation, and I said, she's booked for an operation.
And they get her in there and the specialist puts
his finger in her mouth.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh god, what is it? He it was not cancer.
It was a dreadlock.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Ah, her own dreadlock. She ate a dreadlock from her
own fur. It got wedged in her gum so matted
in between her teeth that it looked like a cancerous mass.
And the specialist pulled it out. Literally, she was on
the table for twenty seconds. He pulled it out and
he said, I can confirm it's not a mass. It's
(10:55):
a dreadlock. And then he said, I can't even bring
myself to charge you.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He's like, I can't charge you, but I will. No,
he did it. That's twenty thousand dollars. Please, I say, talk.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That's that is the example of tomultuous Matt.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's what's the matters.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah, when you look it up in the dictionary, it
is this story right now.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Oh, I know I shouldn't laugh.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It was a close cool and I was so worried,
but like, what are the olds anyway, be careful.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Out there, people take your a haircut.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
So there was this some that this article going around
online like you know those like am I the a holes?
Who's in the wrong? Like just reddit threads? Like Reddit,
don't we get a lot of content from Reddit. Reddit
is a cess pit, though if you've ever been on there,
it is.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
How dare you disrespect the Reddit users like that you're
on there?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
So there's this bride that basically like there's a forum
about bad gifts like wedding gifts, and there's a bride
that went on and was she posted her gift that
she got given and she said, why did I get
given this? This is the weirdest thing, like quite ungrateful.
I just think let's set the tone here. If somebody
has gifted you are present. Maybe it's not what you
wanted or asked, but there's thought involved, right, could be
(12:02):
appreciative of any gift. It's the gesture, right, Yeah, So
she said that, She's like, first of all, I don't
give me presents, like your presence is all I need,
which love that I did the same, say that I
did the same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
You have to say it, but we don't mean it. Honest,
let's be honest.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Give us the money, I say it, but bring the gift. No,
So she'd said no gifts, So she said she got
this present that was like a collection of tiny vinyl
toys like figurings, as if the kind of thing that
you would go out of your way to find to
a collector, there's no other reason anyone needs a collection
of tiny, small vinyl figurines that has nothing to do
(12:38):
with anything.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Could be worth a bit of money. Maybe collectors item,
I don't think.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So I get the impression that maybe they forgot to
get a gift and they're like there's one store down
the road and I don't know, but if that's the case,
put fifty bucks in a card. But that on the thread.
It got so funny, people just talking about what the
bad gift, the bad gift. Yeah, Like there was one
lady that said she got gifted it was just a
box and in it was just like a handful still
(13:04):
on the vine of like vine tomatoes, like cherish tomatoes,
just fresh.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Maybe they're Italian and that's beautiful homegrown brick.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
People saying that they got linen.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
But it wasn't like a set of linen it's just
one bottom sheet, just one like doesn't come with anything,
no pillowcase the top sheet.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I feel like everyone's got those family members that are
just a little bit rogue, you know, just you know
that when you have like say forty or fifty gas,
you're bound to get a couple of dud presents.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
One lady said she hasn't had a drink, she's sober,
hasn't had a drink in like thirty years, and they
gave her like wine stoppers and wine glasses and stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
She's like like.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Well, are you trying to tip me over the edge.
There were scissors, there was like one of the weirdest
things was one lady said she got given handmade Yeah,
a pillow souper bowl.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I've never heard of such a thing. It's a handmade pillow.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
So she's knitted it and I guess it's the size
of a cushion and it's got like a cut out
for a bowl to sit in it, and then you
can put your hot soup bowl in it so that
you don't have to touch it, and then you can
take the soup and put it on your like when
you're eating.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
That's been made by a nana or an old auntie
who's over the age of seventy, bless your wedding.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
What did you get, brit I was the person that
said your presence is my presence because I had an
overseas wedding, so I genuinely didn't even have a place
to put present.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I give you some money. I think we did, did
we know?
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Okay, well this is but yeah, but Laura designed my
wedding rings.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
That's why we Well, I don't think I designed those
wedding rings. And there was so much love involved. I've
got it on now.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
They're beautiful, They're stunning.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
That is great.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
So I got a bit of a random gift from
my wedding. It was a couple of years ago. Laura
and I we got hitched, and it was from my cousin,
one of them, and he was like, hey, I'm going
to get the president sent to your address. And I
was like, that's cool. I was like, what's exciting, Like,
what's going to be? Yeah, maybe it's something big. I'm
sure he hasn't just forgotten. But it arrived and it
was a bucket and I was like, wow, you know,
(15:04):
came in a box and the bucket was there and
it was a car washing kit.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
I mean I was stoked. Laura wasn't too thrilled. But
you know what the worst part is.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
There are a few people that wrote in saying that
they got regifted gifts, which is fine, but a lot
of them already had the original card in it, like
the two and fron card.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Be better than that.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
People, be better at least wash your car.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Hey, guys, that is it from us today.

But I'm down for a different kind of competition.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
I'm not jealous. It's called competitive. Matthew.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Well it's gone too far. Okay, I'm at work right now.
You've broken in here. I don't know how you've gotten
through security.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
You I got my bodyguards here.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I had to make a bold statement. I thought the
billboard was genius. It really hit me hard. I thought
I need something, and I thought he's got a new job.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Why not crash it. Okay, Well you win? Are you
happy now? I am moon. I think I should choose
who wins, just like Ash. Otherwise you'll never stop like
a dog with a bone. Hey, well you're.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Here, you may as well stay.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
What's been going on? Are you sure about that brick? Well?
Do you want here? He just hijacked the whole segments
like this is an audition. I'm here now, I am here.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
I do have a podcast with Matthew and Lauria's just
giving birth to their third child, And we do have
a segment on our show what Not to Say to
a parent?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yes, what not to say?
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Well, we do it just to inform people who may
be listening to our podcasts who are not parents. They
want to make sure they have enough information to never
offend anyone, even if it's accidental.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
All right, so I'm hearing like, not all heroes wear capes,
but Matt and Ash do absolutely.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
So Matt, do you have any examples off the top
of your dome? Yeah? Actually, you said this to me
the other day. You look tired. I think I said
that to you as well.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
I did back, and yeah, I say, and you pulled
me up immediately, and I went home. I looked myself
in the mirror, and I thought, I will never say
that again. Today you look great.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I don't think it's that bad. You just told me
you look like I'm wearing a costume and some address.
But you're a parent exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Wait to your parent and your your emotions are heightened,
your lacking sleep, your all sorts of things going on.
The last thing you want to hear is me say
to you.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
That you look tired.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
This cause that we are now in charge of it
extends beyond just the podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
It's everyday life.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You know, if someone says something inappropriate, we picked them
up on it then and there.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yes, and I've got one.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Actually, I witnessed someone telling me a story, a new
mum telling me a story. Right, There was a group
of us and she's telling us about her birth, and
she said how quick it was. And someone, a gentleman,
leaned in and said, oh, gee, that baby fell out
of here.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
What so sorry? Why can't you say that get out
out of here?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Genuine? You said, you're educating?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
What like?
Speaker 4 (05:14):
What is the is the offense?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
There's a couple of things there. It makes it sound
like it was easy, yes.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
One, and also makes it sound like she just just
fell out of it.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I don't want to. I didn't want to go down
that think.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
It just dis Afternoon radio guys, I can't you know
what I mean?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
It totally discredits what that person has been through. Childbirth
is one of the most exhausting, relentless experiences of your life.
And for someone to just say cut you down and say, oh,
it just fell out of you, it's like saying that
someone who's run a marathon just did a hop step
and a skip.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Okay, Devil's advocate, because I do feel like as a
society we probably get hyper offended. I'm sure he just meant.
It was just a way of him saying like, oh.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
It was a quick burth.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
It doesn't matter. That's the point, right You think this
is why this.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Is so important, because people like yourself, Britt, they're just
not educated.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Have multiple degrees.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
I'm very yeah, but yeah, you might be book smart,
but you're not street smart.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Well, I haven't had a baby fall.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Out of me, not yet.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Not yet. You haven't, and when it does, when it does,
go to cop.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It, I understand. Of course, it's it's like running a
marason every day of pregnancy. I'm joking in that sense,
but I do stand by what I said is like,
I think sometimes if this man would have meant no
offense by it, right, he's just saying, well, you had
a quick birth. Some people do it in forty minutes.
My sister get birth in forty minutes.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Some do it in like forty eight hours.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Definitely didn't say it to be offensive. Yeah, he said
it as a quick comment. But the quick comment is
not necessarily.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
And all I can say is Thank Heavens there are
men like myself like Ash out there educating the people
in the world, not just this country, but the entire world.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
A word that comes to mind is pioneers.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Right, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
The word you're welcome, Yeah, I think produced grace. The
other woman in the room is like, let's wrap these
boys up.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Something offensive to say, Let's wrap it up.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I'd say thanks for stopping by, Ash, but I.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Didn't have a choice anyway.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I'm out here and Matt.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I have had the most tumultuous couple of days with
my dog Delilah.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
What do is tumultuous mean? Like up and down?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Crazy, like a roller coaster, like roller coaster of emotions.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Just be careful with the big words around me, Britt.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Okay, sorry, not very smart than three syllables.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Stress. We can just kill it at the max. Okay,
stressful experience. Yeah, it was wild. Can I say that?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Why?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeld, I'm loud and clear. I've got Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
So my dog, Delilah, she's Australian Shepherd. She's the love
of my life. I don't have kids. I've had her
for four years.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And anyone that knows us you are married to Ben.
I sorry, Ben. My husband is the love of my life.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
But he lives in Italy, so I literally is my
dog and I I just she's just my world, you know.
And I know everyone loves their animals, but I just
love the next level. And so I went to Italy
to see my husband Ben, and Delilah was staying with
one of my best friends, Keisha, and and Keisha has
looked after her since she's a puppy.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
She's like a second mom.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
And so when I was overseas, I get a message
and it's a photo of Delilah's mouth and it's like
Keisha has shown me her gums, right, and there is
this really really nasty black circle, probably almost the size
of a twenty cent piece.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yeah, And Keisha was like britt have you noticed this before?
I swear this wasn't here like a week ago. And
I said, no, that looks nasty. But I got only
seat in a photo and she's like, I'm really concerned.
And she's like, are you happy for me to take
it to a vet? And I've always said to Kisha
whenever she has her or anyone that looks after my dog,
I say, you always just go.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
I'll pay whatever. If you're worried, it's fine. Question. Did
you send it to vet Chris Brown? I did?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I did, and so I was worried and Keisha was like,
I'm really worried. I know her really well. So she
took her to a vet and she was at the
vet for like an hour and the vet was really
concerned and the vet said, look, it looks like a
mass it could be cancer. And I'm like, Keisha, I
was like, she's four. So we'd sent a picture to
doctor Chris Brown, the Bondo Vet, because he's been a
(09:15):
friend of mine for a while. Obviously did Dancing Stars
with him, and I if you go through mine and
Chris's messages for the last couple of years, it's just
like it's very get I get like five free checkups
for my doggy here. And I just last message was hey, Chris,
still I had a poppy seed muffin. Is she okay?
That was my last message anyway. So Chris is like, look,
it's really hard for me to see, you know, he
(09:36):
said a few things it could be.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
He's like, but yes, like she needs to go to
a specialist.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Gosh, this is stressful, so wait for it. So then
this bet is like, you need to go to a
specialist asap. She needs to have a c T scan,
she has to go be put under and have a
biopsy and if it's cancer, we will deal with it.
Oh my god, I'm on the other side of the
world and I'm like beside myself, bawling my eyes out, crying,
and I was like, what is going on. I can't
lose my dog like cancer of the mouth.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, whatever it takes.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
So we called around and got her into a specialist
the next day, and it was going to cost a
bomb and I was like I don't care, like get
her in there, and I was waiting up throughout the night,
and so my friend took her in first. They cleared
the schedule because they were like, this dog's you know,
this couldn't be really mass read. So she gets into
the specialists. They get her on the table ready for
(10:22):
an operation, and I said, she's booked for an operation.
And they get her in there and the specialist puts
his finger in her mouth.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh god, what is it? He it was not cancer.
It was a dreadlock.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Ah, her own dreadlock. She ate a dreadlock from her
own fur. It got wedged in her gum so matted
in between her teeth that it looked like a cancerous mass.
And the specialist pulled it out. Literally, she was on
the table for twenty seconds. He pulled it out and
he said, I can confirm it's not a mass. It's
(10:55):
a dreadlock. And then he said, I can't even bring
myself to charge you.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He's like, I can't charge you, but I will. No,
he did it. That's twenty thousand dollars. Please, I say, talk.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That's that is the example of tomultuous Matt.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's what's the matters.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah, when you look it up in the dictionary, it
is this story right now.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Oh, I know I shouldn't laugh.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It was a close cool and I was so worried,
but like, what are the olds anyway, be careful.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Out there, people take your a haircut.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
So there was this some that this article going around
online like you know those like am I the a holes?
Who's in the wrong? Like just reddit threads? Like Reddit,
don't we get a lot of content from Reddit. Reddit
is a cess pit, though if you've ever been on there,
it is.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
How dare you disrespect the Reddit users like that you're
on there?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
So there's this bride that basically like there's a forum
about bad gifts like wedding gifts, and there's a bride
that went on and was she posted her gift that
she got given and she said, why did I get
given this? This is the weirdest thing, like quite ungrateful.
I just think let's set the tone here. If somebody
has gifted you are present. Maybe it's not what you
wanted or asked, but there's thought involved, right, could be
(12:02):
appreciative of any gift. It's the gesture, right, Yeah, So
she said that, She's like, first of all, I don't
give me presents, like your presence is all I need,
which love that I did the same, say that I
did the same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
You have to say it, but we don't mean it. Honest,
let's be honest.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Give us the money, I say it, but bring the gift. No,
So she'd said no gifts, So she said she got
this present that was like a collection of tiny vinyl
toys like figurings, as if the kind of thing that
you would go out of your way to find to
a collector, there's no other reason anyone needs a collection
of tiny, small vinyl figurines that has nothing to do
(12:38):
with anything.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Could be worth a bit of money. Maybe collectors item,
I don't think.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
So I get the impression that maybe they forgot to
get a gift and they're like there's one store down
the road and I don't know, but if that's the case,
put fifty bucks in a card. But that on the thread.
It got so funny, people just talking about what the
bad gift, the bad gift. Yeah, Like there was one
lady that said she got gifted it was just a
box and in it was just like a handful still
(13:04):
on the vine of like vine tomatoes, like cherish tomatoes,
just fresh.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Maybe they're Italian and that's beautiful homegrown brick.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
People saying that they got linen.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
But it wasn't like a set of linen it's just
one bottom sheet, just one like doesn't come with anything,
no pillowcase the top sheet.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I feel like everyone's got those family members that are
just a little bit rogue, you know, just you know
that when you have like say forty or fifty gas,
you're bound to get a couple of dud presents.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
One lady said she hasn't had a drink, she's sober,
hasn't had a drink in like thirty years, and they
gave her like wine stoppers and wine glasses and stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
She's like like.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Well, are you trying to tip me over the edge.
There were scissors, there was like one of the weirdest
things was one lady said she got given handmade Yeah,
a pillow souper bowl.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I've never heard of such a thing. It's a handmade pillow.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
So she's knitted it and I guess it's the size
of a cushion and it's got like a cut out
for a bowl to sit in it, and then you
can put your hot soup bowl in it so that
you don't have to touch it, and then you can
take the soup and put it on your like when
you're eating.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
That's been made by a nana or an old auntie
who's over the age of seventy, bless your wedding.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
What did you get, brit I was the person that
said your presence is my presence because I had an
overseas wedding, so I genuinely didn't even have a place
to put present.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I give you some money. I think we did, did
we know?
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Okay, well this is but yeah, but Laura designed my
wedding rings.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
That's why we Well, I don't think I designed those
wedding rings. And there was so much love involved. I've
got it on now.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
They're beautiful, They're stunning.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
That is great.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
So I got a bit of a random gift from
my wedding. It was a couple of years ago. Laura
and I we got hitched, and it was from my cousin,
one of them, and he was like, hey, I'm going
to get the president sent to your address. And I
was like, that's cool. I was like, what's exciting, Like,
what's going to be? Yeah, maybe it's something big. I'm
sure he hasn't just forgotten. But it arrived and it
was a bucket and I was like, wow, you know,
(15:04):
came in a box and the bucket was there and
it was a car washing kit.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
I mean I was stoked. Laura wasn't too thrilled. But
you know what the worst part is.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
There are a few people that wrote in saying that
they got regifted gifts, which is fine, but a lot
of them already had the original card in it, like
the two and fron card.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Be better than that.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
People, be better at least wash your car.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Hey, guys, that is it from us today.
