Our Windows Down, My World, Reason the Dust only Good,
Brad Doug All Down.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I'm don't much, but yeah, I know I'll big get
and what I want it don't matter where goes. This
is the pickup I've been Monday. Everyone. I hope you
all had a brilliant weekend.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
It is week two of the Wonderful co host Laura
Burn being off on attorney leave and her husband Maddy
Jay in the hot seats.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
You know what they say about week two, Britt, what.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
They say it comes before week three.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well that and it's better than week one. Actually, today
is my favorite day of the week. I've often said
that Thursday is the favorite, but Monday.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Last week we did a whole break around the fact
that Thursday was your favorite day.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
No, Monday is actually it is really my favorite because
it's bin day and we're getting the blue bin, the
cardboards getting picked up today.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Whoo oh my god. You know you've entered the next
phase of life when it's excited.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
And also the green bin, the green waste gets picked
up and the green bin's full.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I am happy to say. I don't know what day
Binda is. I live in an apartment block where they
put it out for you.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Oh, I don't be nice, it is nice.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
What's your old house?
Speaker 2 (01:33):
God? I miss it, Brittany, I'm not sure if you've
seen who's been making headlines. It's a politician, could be anyone.
It's not Donald Trump, but it's an Aussie politician. Do
you know who it is? Any guesses?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I feel like every politician every single week makes a
headline in Australia, not for the right reason.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Well, on this occasion, it is none other than Pauline Hansen.
She's still politician and she I think I think she is.
Is she semi retired? Not sure? Jail, that's for another chat.
She's been attacking the brown paper bag that you get
from a supermarket. Of all people to attack.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
A brown paper bag, why on earth would she attack
a brown paper bag? I mean, actually we could read
between the.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Let's have a listen to what she said, buy these
cheap rubbish bags.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
That's spit and rape on you.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
All the time.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
I'm over it. I'm sorry, angry about.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
This and twenty five cents a bag, Boys and Coles,
get your act together with the bags.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Have a good day, get your act together with the bags.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Do you know what?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
It's probably the only thing I maybe semi agree with
Pauline on in anything she's ever said.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Look, and I think there's a lot of people out
there that are in a similar position to yourself. They're
on the fence and they're thinking, oh my gosh, is
this gonna happen. Am I going to side with Pauline
Hanson on this issue? Okay? And I for one am
here to defend the brown pepper bag.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
So what's her issue that it just split some brakes
and doesn't actually do what's supposed to do.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
She's angry about the condition of the bag. It's too weak,
and it's too expensive twenty five cents. It's not worth it.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
What I will say is this was not planned. I'm
not making this up.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yesterday I did go to the supermarket and I literally
I wasn't even self service. Somebody served me and I
picked the brown bag up and as I picked it up,
it just split and dropped to the ground.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
And I hadn't even moved.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Oh my gosh, I hadn't taken a step. You were
pulling hands and right now.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Ever, relate to pull in here?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Sorry, so too far, too far?
Speaker 3 (03:27):
So what are we going to do today?
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Okay? Well I have in the studio today a genuine
brown paper bag from a supermarket.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Does look a bit used and thanks to.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Our producer Grace, who was I think she's dug this
one out of under the sink. It's not a crisp bag.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Is this?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
It was in my desk drawers. I keep them in
case I need to pop.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Out for lush.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Better days.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
We don't know how how often this one has been used,
but I've been told from industry inside is that they
do have a weight test of six kilograms. I've got
a luggage scale here. Are we going to find out
on the radio live just how much weight these bags
can actually take.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
What we are trying to do is prove pulling here
and wrong live on it exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Look at the wear and tear in this back.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
We're in use once guy, We're attaching the scales.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
And now I'm going to start with the big guns. Okay,
I want to go straight to a sand bag. This
is five kilograms.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
My god, that brings us to work to do sandbag
lunges in the in the breaks.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
All right, fives a lot. I'm nervous, but that's.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Almost the whole. I mean, we're only got six kilos.
This is a good test, so throw her in.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Okay, this could be over very quickly. One second.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
I think that's probably pretty standard for you know, Okay,
let's go. Can I pick? Let's go the tomatosaurce next.
I thought you'd never ask or you're going to weigh
at each time. It's going to you know, oh my god,
oh my god.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, acts like you're.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Walking, so it needs some bounced walking.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
There's a bit of bounce there and it's holding that bags,
struggling the whole shoulder shaking right now, I okay, can
confirm five kilos.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Okay, great, Let's add in the tomato sauce and maybe
a popper.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
So in the bag currently there is a sand bag,
tomato sauce, a water bottle, and a popper. Oh my goodness,
oh my god.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Give the bounce.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Look at that.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
What if you have to run for the bus.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I'm going all in. I'm going to add in a
water bottle, yep, and a I mean, I don't even
know if I'll be able to lift this with one arm.
That's how much weight is currently in the bag and
the bag is withholding. Okay, this may be the last
test that we do. I don't know if you got
enough stuff to keep on doing this.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
I don't know if you'll be coming back. You hop
in the bag next, Okay, all right, let's go give
it some muscle.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Go.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Oh my god, okay, give it some running for the bus.
You're running for the bus.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Look at that way? What wait? Is that? That's almost
nine killers?
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Nine killers? That that's impressing?
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Are you not impressed?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Breadday?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Yeah I am.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
I don't know if you need to yell, but.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
I'm thoroughly impressed because my bags are breaking before and
like box.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Of tissues in there. Oh, we're going with the whole
whole hog. We put another.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Sandbag in so two sandbags, two poppers, two drink bottles,
tomatoes all we got.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
It's broken. It's broken. What's the way I don't know.
You can't hold it off and he's about to pop it.
We've got a crack.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Why okay, Oh my god, Pauline Hanson, you heard it
here first?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
How dare you you heard it here? That's like that
was fourteen kilos at least.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
It must mean so that's that's I'm calling it double
that bag?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Then what it says, can you could put a small
child in that bag?
Speaker 3 (06:59):
You could carry popping in there.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Yeah, you don't need a pram brown pepper bag.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Thanks Matt for bringing that and proving the segment rule
all of Australia was one how much is going to
paperback hole?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Something's happened to me recently and I don't know if
I'm overreacting here. Okay, okay, So Poppy, we have just
given birth. When I say we, I me and my
wife Laura. Poppy is now coming up to three weeks
old our time for wow, it just where it's going
so quick?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Can be on college soon?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Goodness me, it is dragging on. I'm so tired right now.
But we decided over the weekend to venture out a
little escape from the house, get some fresh air, get
the other kids outside. We thought it'd be a lovely moment,
right of course, beautiful and Poppy just had a feed.
I was holding Poppy. Laura then went for a little
wanderer around the park with the other girls, Marley and Lawla.
(07:54):
So I was standing there holding Poppy and I kind
of forget that, like I'm desensitized now to it, to
a newborn and its size. But for other people seeing
a newborn that fresh so tiny out in the open,
you know people, and it's nice. They go, oh my gosh,
she's so tiny, and I go, yes, three weeks old,
you know the normal small toll. Yeah, yeah, yes, I'm
(08:18):
the bachelor, that's right. Yeah it did work.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Yes, my wife has left me and I'm a single time.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, I'm on the three BM pick up every day.
But then one person came over and we were having
a really nice chat and she was a parent. Her
kids were playing in the park and then she was like,
just look at her little feet. Look at them. And
I was like, yeah, they're really tiny. And then she
started touching her feet and I was I didn't want
(08:42):
to say anything, but I was like, I'm just i've
just met you. And I'm also a bit funny about
germs right now, because you know the kids, for example,
you got to wash your hands before you touch the child,
and all of a sudden, this woman is touching the feet.
But I was like, it's just the feet's fine. Yeah,
And then she was like, look at her little fingers.
The fingers were so gosh, she's touching her fingers, and
I was like again, I was like, I'll let this
(09:03):
one slide. I don't want to make it awkward between
myself and the parent. She has good intentions. And then
she was stroking her face.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
So your perprader, I.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Well, I just it was such a gradual build up.
But by the time she was touching Poppy's face and
like stroking her little head, you'd let it happen. I'd
let it happen. And I thought to myself, this will
be over in the blink of an eye. And I
didn't want to make it weird. But I was thinking
to myself, do I have to tell people front ten
when they come over, do not touch the child. I
(09:37):
think that's much tricky.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
I totally get I think the feet are free go zone.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Like I think feet you can do fetame, you can
touch them, I think, but I don't know disclaim it.
I'm not a parent, but I did work in a
hospital and emergency for thirteen years.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I've been around the germs. I get the vaccination thing.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I get it all.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I think it is one hundred percent okay.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
For you to ask a stranger not to touch your baby,
especially a newborn, because if your child gets sick, it
can be devastating, especially at that young And I don't
think you need to be awkward.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
It just means you're a good person.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
You feel uncomfortable making someone else fee uncomfortable, and I
think that just makes you a good person.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
But there are some things I think you need to
throw to the side.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
And if it's a stranger at a park who has
germs on their hand, doesn't mean they're a dirty person.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
We all have germs. And then they're touching her face.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
It's like, so, I think this is a bit of
a PSA. Then to anyone out there who was a parent,
I get that you're a parent, you understand it. It
doesn't give you this ability to then touch other people's children.
But then just when I thought the worst of it
was over, she was then touching the feet again, and
she goes, oh, it's a bit cold. I think she
might need some socks.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Oh, she told you how to parent.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
She's touched my child, and now she's having to go
at me for what she's wearing.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Maybe she thinks you're the first time parent.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Maybe she thought you were a single dad and your
wife had left and you were struggling with the three.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Well, I was holding Poppy upside down. But that's not
the point.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Alrah, there's your parsa from that. No touching people's faces.
What I'm about to talk about. You're going to have
a story on so on what do we got? Well,
Laura and I have a podcast called Life on Cut podcast.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Heard of it now, you know, but for those of
you in the car are listening.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Right now that don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
And last week we had interviewed a specialist psychiatrist from
Yale University.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Ool fancy.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, he's a doctor.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
He's an amazing man, but he has spent his life
dedicated to studying the science of revenge.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
That's niche, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
It's so niche. Anyway, it's fascinating episode. You can go
and listen to that in Life on Cut.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
But once we released that, we started to get all
these people just like unsolicited messaging in their revenge stories, like.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Owning up to their own revenges.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, because a part of the interview is talking about
the science of revenge in relationships.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
So it's so fascinating.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Revenge is actually an addiction, and you can get into
these like loops in a relationship where you know when
you're it's so petty, but you know, it's like tit
for tat in a relationship, like you're trying to one
up each other.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I would never know what that's light, because that's not
the kind of person that I am.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
For it. Anyway, it was really interesting, but we had
so many people writing in their revenge stories.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
I'm going to read a few, but I was like,
you know, who's going to have a revenge dating story?
I was like you some reason. I was like, maybe
it's not you that's done it, but maybe someone's done
it to you. I don't know which way it's going
to go.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Have you got one, look, Brett? Okay, my gosh, I
probably shouldn't say this, but I like to present myself
as being a bit of an angel, and I like
to think that I am that angel. But there once
was a time, many years ago, almost we're talking over
a decade ago, before I was married, before I met Laura,
when I was on the dating scene and I was
a young boy, I was very naive, and yes I
did make some mistakes. Okay, you cheated, well, Okay, no,
(12:44):
that's another story. But I once a relationship ended. We
were together for a little while, about six months, and
after we ended the relationship, I still had a few
belongings at her place. Yeah, And I was like, hey,
is that cool if I just pop over one afternoon
and I just pick up you know, my things that
are at your place. And she goes, yeah, look, I
won't be home, I'll be at work, but my roommate
(13:07):
will let you in. And I was like cool, And
I collected my belongings and on her windowsill was a succulent.
And what I did was I got some wind decks
and I don't want people like greenpeas coming for me
because I love the environment. I'm all for it. Plan.
I don't know if it survived.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
I you windexed.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
No, well, succulent's very robust. But I poured out a
lot of wind decks on that succulent and I left going.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Horrid.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
It felt good, No horrid.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
That's worse than some of these stories. Let me read
you this one.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
One girl wrote in and said that she set up
a catfish account for her partner she thought he was cheating,
arranged a date.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
He went to the date then she messaged him saying, hey, sorry,
I saw you turn up. I think you're ugly, so
I left.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Then when he got home, she dumped him. He went
to a date to cheat.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Then she was like, hey, I saw you walk in
and left because you were so ugly, Like she ugly,
so bad. So she pretended the whole thing my wind
X story was nothing compared to that.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
That's that is next level. That's psychotic.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Okay, what about this one?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
So one girl wrote in and said she sent the
nudes that she had found that he had sent to
girls that he was cheating on her with. So she
had seen that he'd sent nudes to other people, right,
So she got them and sent them to his parents.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Like you can't do as a parent. I think that's fine.
You wouldn't be that that embarrassed. Mum got nudes of me?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Your mom got Yeah, that's a different story.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
That's my boy. What about.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
There are some other innocent ones, like I had his
favorite clothes so I chopped them all up. That was
a big one. Yeah, and one girl, this is this
is too much because it's it's too hard.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
One girl, I want to hear this one.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
No, it's actually not. But she just got his passport
and through it in a pond.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
That's you didn't think.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
That's hard work, that's the adm.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Admin of that. That's a disaster, a pond of all places.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Hey, guys, if you we don't encourage this at all,
but if for some reason you do want to act revenge,
you can call up and let us know what.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
We don't condone this behavior. It's terrible, disgusting.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Do you know what I remember. I'm just such a
sucker for it. I'm such a loser. Some people know this.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
But I was in this relationship for a few years,
and he had a double life. He was dating someone else,
he was marrying simultaneously. We'd called our dogs the same names,
we wore the same perfumes, like he'd set up two
identical lives.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
It was the ultimate cheating situation.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
The same the same dog name as yourself and the person.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Our lives were identical. We had the same kinds of dogs.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
That's good to say.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
And then I was like, I'm gonna get you so good.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
And then I just couldn't bring myself to do anything nasty.
So all I did was when I left this house
last time, I just took all his swilet paper.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
My god, no, it's pathetic. I know better than that.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
I could have windexed a plant. Such a missed opportunity.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
At least I put fish heads somewhere. Hide it in
a wardrobe.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Come on, bricks, all right, Well, if you've got one,
please let it. No, we could do it again next
week
