Speaker 3 (00:22):
Baby your what our windows done?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
That's my worldris in the dust? Only good fabs all down.

and what I want. It don't matter where. This is
the pickup.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Hello everyone, and welcome to the end of hump Days
pick Up with Britt Hockey and Laura Ben.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Britt.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I came across something last night, which means it's true.
It's far too late to take back this pregnancy. I'm
having a baby in five weeks.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Everyone having a baby. I'm having a baby. How did't
I know about that? We've never spoken about it.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I know it's shocking news to everyone. We basically never
mentioned it on this show.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
How big is it right now? In terms of the
fruit that's your favorite.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Pastime, it does feel like it's already a watermelon, but
I think it's probably a bit bigger than rock melon.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I don't know. Five weeks is pretty cooked. It's good
to come. Yeah, I'm surprised. Usually you're on what vegetable
it is.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
At the moment.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Oh, I mean at some point during the show, I'll look, no, look.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I came across there's been this thing trending on socials recently,
and it's a study from the US from like I
don't know who knows. Everything's a study on Instagram these days,
but it says the most stressed mums are mums of three. Apparently,
of all the number of children you could have, the
critical number of like peak stress is three children.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
So funny.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I actually stumbled across this study a couple of days ago,
and I sent it in the chat that I have
without producer Grace, that you're naughty.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
So why do you have a chat without me? It's
not a chat. I just messaged to produce a Grace.
It's not a chat. But I messaged ro chat of two.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I messaged her and just laughed, and I was like, Lol,
don't let Lauri see this because you're about to have
your third and.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Then you've already seen it. Now you're laughing at now
only did I see it.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I posted on my own stories on socials and the
amount of women who absolutely did not make me feel
any better and said, yeah, it's true.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Fine, what happens when you hit four? Like I'm one
of four. I think you just stop giving a single f.
I don't care anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
So apparently once you've done three, four, five, six, seven,
women who have five kids are apparently less stressed the
women who have two kids.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And I reckon, they've just stopped getting to be man.
My mom used to be like, it was just a
different time.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
There's four of us and we're all pretty close, like
eighteen months apart. And Mom used to just be like,
send us out to play in the day, come home
before the sun's down.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
No, fine, you don't know where your kids are, just.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Like go ride your bike in the bush and whatever changed.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
If something happens, you'll come and find us.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
I remember once I fell over and broke my arm
in the bush and my brothers had to like ride back.
They're like wait here, and they had to ride back
like half an hour to get my parents. And then
they had to drive the cast through the bush to
get me because I snapped my arm.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Have you recovered from that?
Speaker 3 (02:50):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
I haven't recovered from Right now, we have something that
we need to talk about. Do you think it's weird?
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Like obviously we all know that the kind of I guess,
like the stereotype is that the guy proposes to the
girl in heterosexual relationships.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That's the patriot. It's the patriot. But you know, I
think it's changing a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Like there are definitely we've spoken about it before. There
are some women who have proposed to their fiancees or partners.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh, there's nothing wrong with it.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
But I wouldn't say it's changing that rapidly. I would
still say it is like a one percent.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Yeah, it's definitely the norm to kind of like wait
until the day that you're prince Charming if your one
has heterosexual relationship proposes to you, right. So Bella Thorne,
if you don't know who she is, she's an ex
Disney star, She's an actress.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
She also blew up like it, literally blew the hell
up because of her Only Fans. I think everyone started
to she became like more of a household name.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
But she holds the record for the highest earnings in
the first week of only Fans. She made two million
dollars within like six days of starting her only Fans
And I'm pretty sure she didn't even post anything yet.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I think she was like signing people were like ready
for it, ready for it. She didn't even have to post.
Maybe I'll try that good luck. All right.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Well, look, she's confused people online more so than anything.
I don't think people no one's up in arms. People
are just a little bit like but I don't understand.
So two years ago her partner proposed to her, or
a year ago, her partner proposed to her and he
got down on one knee, and she posted that she
was engaged and it was all happy times. Now, just
the other day she's posted herself down on one knee
(04:21):
proposing to her already existing fiance, and everyone's kind of like,
hold on, do we have deja vu?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Where I thought you were already engaged.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
She's decided that she wanted to propose back to her
partner to really solidify that she felt the same about
him as what he felt about her, and to kind
of like create this equality in the relationship. The question is,
is this absolutely ridiculous? Is it worth like the like,
I mean, the reason that someone would do it. Is
it even worth having to like reciprocate a proposal? Because
(04:51):
I kind of think that like saying yes to it
is the reciprocation.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
It is you've already agreed to it.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
I don't, to be honest, care that much about this,
but I understand that our job is to care.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I do find it unusual that the internet is caring
so much.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
No, like it was the comments more so, like people
in the comments are like like some people were like, yes, Queen,
I love this for you, like f yeah, girl, parent
other people who are like stand up, queen, what are
you doing?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
What are you doubt of you before? I also watched
the video and he gets down on his knees immediately,
like it's quite awkward to watch. But you know what,
who are pretty yuck? Anyone's yum.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
But I don't understand the point of it, Like like
you said, Laura saying yes, is you reciprocating and agreeing
to that union.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Maybe he just wanted to ring. Maybe he'd brought it
up that he would love for her to propose back.
I don't know what. Maybe they needed some content for Instagram.
Maybe it's working. Maybe they need to be pushed back.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Into the public eye, like a bit of pr or something.
But there's nothing wrong with a woman proposing. We've got
a woman in this room, producer Grace who proposed.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Produce a Grace proposed back.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, you literally did this, but your situation is a
little bit different.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Yes. So I my wife proposed to me a couple
of years ago, and then I had a ring also coming,
and I decided I wanted to propose back, But it
was more so because she wanted a ring as well,
and I also kind of wanted the experience of proposing.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Can I say? It really takes the stress out of it,
doesn't it.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You know that they're going to say yes, You're like, well,
I guess that, Like I don't have.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
To worry too much about this. One of the best
low stax questions I've ever asked. But how do you ask?
Do you say? Will you still marry me?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Like?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What's the what's the question? I think we kind of
like we kind.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Of played into the fact that it was a little
bit ridiculous. We were already engaged, and I did the
fool like will you marry me? It was very romantic
but also very chill.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Imagine she was like, no, that's awkward.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I've actually changed my may What if you're trying to
like proposal top like if you know if the second
one's better than the first one, do you then like
use that against them for.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The rest of your marriage, I mean healthy.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
It would have been used against me, I think, But
I didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I just wanted to for chill. I was like, we're
already engaged. That's not click. I didn't post it.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
It was just for us.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Oh, it was just real. Yeah, weird in this day
and age, that's just bizarre. I cartrelate to that at all.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Laura, Before I ask you this question, can you just
put this to bed for me? Is it pronounced a
beefa or a beza?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Isn't it a befa? I don't know, Okay, piza whatever, Well,
they're two different things. I don't know. I don't think
that's what we're going to talk about though. No we're not.
But I wanted to get it right before I told
you the story. But we don't know. Thanks for making
me look stupid on the radio. Okay, Well this is
a story set in Obitha.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Now there's a restaurant over there coming under fire for
something that they put onto.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
A bill they charged some tourists. These this couple went
to this nice restaurant.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
They sat down, the waitress came over, was very lovely,
put the napkin on them, and then said can I
take your bag and hang it up for you. She says, no,
do you know what, I'm okay, like it can stay here,
And the waitress was apparently like quite pushy for it,
like no, it's okay, like it's just just.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Like whatever.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
So after had a couple pushing, they agreed and said, okay,
it's okay, like hang it up anyway. The bill comes
out and on the bill is a charge which says
gant show boyser, which is eighteen dollars. Now gant show
boyser means bag hook. So they got charged eighteen dollars
to hang the bag up? Did they want to hang up?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Did they get to take the bag hook home?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Now?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Did they purchase it? They take the whole bag hook?
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yeah, well it's not included normally. But they complained and
they're like, sorry, what we didn't A. You never said
that there was a charge. B. We didn't want to
do it, like you pushed us into it. And it
became this big thing so much so that like the
boss of the restaurant and the manager came out and
said that if it makes you feel better, you can
keep the.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Hookyok, why wouldn't they just refund the bag charge?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Do you know what they did that too.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I went to a Betha when I was in my
twenties and one thing though I did find super surprising
is that you know, when you go to the nightclubs,
the bottles of water are so expensive. This is going
back years and years ago, and at costlate twelve euro
for a bottle of water, that was it. And they
put salt water in all of the taps so that
when you wash your hands, you can't just refill your
(09:01):
bottle of water.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You've got to go and buy another bottle of water.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Because yeah, I mean we can all probably read between
the lines as to why water cells really well.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
And I beata, okay, yeah, well I do want to
say because I don't want to get in trouble. So
I don't want to get this restaurant in trouble. The
manager did say, look, it was a mistake. We enter
that in as a reminder to give you back your bag,
and we don't know how there was amount of money. Yeah,
but whatever I'm pulling, you can't slam them, but I
mean I can.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I think everyone's had like those little daylight robbery moments
where you go to pay the bill and you're like,
I'm sorry, what is that I got charged?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
The other day? Speaking of I get a coffee.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
My coffee order is a soy cappuccino with a little
squeeche of honey like dash like instead of a sugar,
I just put a little of honey in A.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Dollar fifty for a squeeze of honey. You squeeze of honey.
Oh my god, daylight robbery, daylight robbery, daylight robbery. And
you know what I think I'm going to start doing.
I don't know if this is classified as theft.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I might put the order in and pay and then say,
oh sorry, I forgot to add the honey, and then
they just couldn't be.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Bothered to charge yourself squad.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
But I imagine if they were like, sorry, you owe
us one dollar fifty, could you please to have.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Your card again?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I mean, look it usually and also I don't want
to come from cafes and whatnot, like they're out there
trying to run it honest business and make a dollar.
On the one time that it did spring me is
a bit of a surprise. I was at a cafe
with her group of girlfriends and this was when I
just had my daughter Marley made she was a tiny baby,
and I'd transferred her from breastfeeding onto formula. So we
(10:27):
were all there having lunch and I'd asked if I
could get a tiny bit of hot water that I
could put into her bottle to warm her bottle up.
And then the bill came and on there was a
charge for.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
The hot water.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I was like, I can't remember. It was like a
three dollar charge for hot water. And I was like,
surely not, surely it's just no, of course not.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I just paid it. Now I complain about it on radio. Hey,
we have Jordan on the line. Jordan, what did you
get stung for?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Hello? I took my three kids to go see a
live show and they of course wanted a snow cone.
That alone was twenty six dollars for a snow cone.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
And the ice, yeah it is with a bit of
coquarter on the top in.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
A fancy cup at least. And then the lady said
to me, would you like a spoon with that? And
I said yes, and she charged me six dollars to
buy the stone.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Oh my god, the twenty six dollars of ice didn't
even come with a way to eat it.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
No where where were you like don't don't even shame,
but like, no, dude, like is this it? Are you
like a fair?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
No?
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Like like a live show, like at like an entertainment center.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
But that doesn't surprise me because anytime I'm taken the
kids to a concert or something, you know, you go.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I think it might have been No, I don't know.
It was a Wiggles.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
It was some sort of kid's concert and they have
those like light up lighty toys, so you wait in
line forever and then you buy.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
It's like a piece of junk that they can like
spin around in the concert.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And we got to the front of the line and
I bought it, and I thought the number that was
next to the light up toy was the number saying.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Like what number item it was?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Because I didn't have a didn't have a dollar sign,
it just said two numbers and it was fifty dollars
each for this little stupid wizzy.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Anyway, whatever do you know, robbery?
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Do you just remind me of something I haven't thought
about until now. I remember being at this fancy restaurant
and the way it came over and I remember saying, like,
what do you recommend that's like not too heavy?
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I just want that something like a little bit extra.
And I think you were there, Laura, and he came
over and he said, do you know what I recommend?
He's like, it's very light, it's fresh. He's like, we
have a beautiful shaved ice. Do you remember? And then
I tried to keep it in and in my head
I was like, of course that's light, it's water. And
I was like, oh, the shaved ice. I was like,
(12:36):
how much is that? He was like twenty seven dollars.
I was like, interesting, I think I'll go for the salad.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
I could not believe it anyway, absolutely wild and in
the words of Laura Burn's grammar daylight robbery.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Well, it is that time of year again when we
decide to add new words to the dictionary. Does it
happen every year? It does? Yeah, every single year. So
this is actually really interesting. How many new words do
you think are created every year?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I would like to know how many words get deleted
from the Dictionary of the year, like a they e
redundant work.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I don't have that information, or does it just keep
getting it? Producer Grace is on the case as always, well,
whils Grace is googling that how many words. Do you
think I created a year? I just have a stab
twenty five wow. No, five thousand, four hundred new words
a year, yes, but how is creating them? I disagree?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Well, so four hundred words are created, but they're not
all added to the dictionary. So they're created because they
gain viral attraction. People use them in everyday language, but
that doesn't mean they're added officially to the dictionary. The
number added every year to the dictionary is about a thousand,
so every I mean, no wonder the language is so hard.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
It's like ever evolving. You can't keep up.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Well, I wanted to quiz you on a few of
these words, or I don't know if we're being aged out.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I don't know what it is. There are some that
I just didn't know what they were. Have a feeling
you might be okay with it. No, I know what
this is going to be.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
It's gonna be all those stupid like I don't want
to say stubid. It's kids in the car, the gen
z words that like millennials don't know. And I've seen
so many of these TikTok videos where like kids are
like that, what's this word? And then I don't pay
attention to what the word means, like I'm like, I know,
like skive it is one.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Good one, Laura, because that is actually the first question, skibbity?
Speaker 2 (14:12):
What is skibbity? I have a feeling that skibbity means nothing?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Is that what it is?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Like, No, it doesn't mean because I think I think
it is, like it can mean a couple of different things,
or it can just be gibberish, like I think it
actually can mean nothing as one of their Oh.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
My god, you actually that's right. I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I did not read the full sentence, which is also
like just such a stupid word, Like how does a.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Word that means nothing end up in the dick? Why
do we need it? It could be cool or it's
nothing because the two things. That's actually right? How did
you know that?
Speaker 4 (14:41):
So it could mean bad cool or bad or has
no real meaning at all as a joke, I don't
even know that means.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
It's like literally can just be like a gibberish thing
like yeah, whatever, skibbity.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Your four year old says, skibbity. I don't know why
my brain notes that. Okay, I'm so sorry. I'm sure
I'm sure, all right. What about this prolligharky, prolly ghaky,
prolli ghaky. I've never heard of it. It's a real word,
something to umbrellas, like when it's no, no, no, it's
not getting shut on by a bird. Brother, I don't
(15:14):
know what is it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
It's a blend of bro and oligarchy, which means a
small group of men, often owning tech companies, who are
extremely rich and powerful and who have or want of
political influence life.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I love that you're quizzing me on this, but you
have to read it word for word because you're like,
I don't even know this.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You say that definition, and it's people like Elon Musk,
for example, or like the Jeff Bezos groligarky oligarchy in.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Like a bro tech bros worse.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Yeah, okay, we have mouse jiggler, someone who jiggles mouse mice.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Mac could be taken a few different ways. You're nobody
who has a real fetish for jiggling mice. She actually
sailed it.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
You're actually not far off, but not the animal mouse
like a device or a piece of software that you
can use that will like wiggle your mouse to make
it look like you're working.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, We've talked about this before. I used to live
with someone. Her name is Vanessa, Love her to death.
She now works for us, and she's a very hard
work of us. But back in the day, back in
the day when we lived together, she used to work
for a bank or something, and they had like you
had to log on online and every fifteen minutes, if
your mouse hadn't moved, it would clock that you're not
actually working.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
So she would just sit there watching Netflix and every
so often move her laptop mouth. She needed a mouse trig.
I'm glad we hired her. Ah, so all right, you're
too good at that.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
So I'm going to take a little bit of a
seguey here. We just had producer Grace look up for
you some words that got deleted from the dictionary this year.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, I asked how many. We couldn't find the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
So now instead, producer Grace just found words that are
no longer existing.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Yeah, okay, Laura. Number one sperm ologer someone who investigates
the sperm.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
It's actually a gossiper, someone filmed with random knowledge. So
not you.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Hasn't I yet to do with sperm? Yeah? Poor use
of that. Okay, it's better things. Would you can just
call them a gosper slubber de gullion, a sluter degullion.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
I reckon, it's an insult. I think it's someone you
don't like, someone who's done something wrong. You're there, A
slubb degullion.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
It's someone who slobbers a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Yeah, somebody don't like it had to be right, the
slavery slubberedgullion.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Okay, snolly Goston.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
It's also someone who's like you don't like. That's a
snorty person.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
No, it's a politician from the nineteenth century who wins
by fraud.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
There is Snolly Goston. This has got to go in
the bin with the words this whole segment, O, hey,
last one a cri crank them. I don't know, Britt,
I would use this for you. I'm a crink Claura.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Baby your what our windows done?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
That's my worldris in the dust? Only good fabs all down.
I don't much, but yeah I'm not. I'll big get
and what I want. It don't matter where. This is
the pickup.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Hello everyone, and welcome to the end of hump Days
pick Up with Britt Hockey and Laura Ben.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Britt.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I came across something last night, which means it's true.
It's far too late to take back this pregnancy. I'm
having a baby in five weeks.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Everyone having a baby. I'm having a baby. How did't
I know about that? We've never spoken about it.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I know it's shocking news to everyone. We basically never
mentioned it on this show.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
How big is it right now? In terms of the
fruit that's your favorite.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Pastime, it does feel like it's already a watermelon, but
I think it's probably a bit bigger than rock melon.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I don't know. Five weeks is pretty cooked. It's good
to come. Yeah, I'm surprised. Usually you're on what vegetable
it is.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
At the moment.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Oh, I mean at some point during the show, I'll look, no, look.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I came across there's been this thing trending on socials recently,
and it's a study from the US from like I
don't know who knows. Everything's a study on Instagram these days,
but it says the most stressed mums are mums of three. Apparently,
of all the number of children you could have, the
critical number of like peak stress is three children.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
So funny.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I actually stumbled across this study a couple of days ago,
and I sent it in the chat that I have
without producer Grace, that you're naughty.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
So why do you have a chat without me? It's
not a chat. I just messaged to produce a Grace.
It's not a chat. But I messaged ro chat of two.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I messaged her and just laughed, and I was like, Lol,
don't let Lauri see this because you're about to have
your third and.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Then you've already seen it. Now you're laughing at now
only did I see it.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I posted on my own stories on socials and the
amount of women who absolutely did not make me feel
any better and said, yeah, it's true.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Fine, what happens when you hit four? Like I'm one
of four. I think you just stop giving a single f.
I don't care anymore.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
So apparently once you've done three, four, five, six, seven,
women who have five kids are apparently less stressed the
women who have two kids.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And I reckon, they've just stopped getting to be man.
My mom used to be like, it was just a
different time.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
There's four of us and we're all pretty close, like
eighteen months apart. And Mom used to just be like,
send us out to play in the day, come home
before the sun's down.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
No, fine, you don't know where your kids are, just.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Like go ride your bike in the bush and whatever changed.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
If something happens, you'll come and find us.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
I remember once I fell over and broke my arm
in the bush and my brothers had to like ride back.
They're like wait here, and they had to ride back
like half an hour to get my parents. And then
they had to drive the cast through the bush to
get me because I snapped my arm.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Have you recovered from that?
Speaker 3 (02:50):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
I haven't recovered from Right now, we have something that
we need to talk about. Do you think it's weird?
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Like obviously we all know that the kind of I guess,
like the stereotype is that the guy proposes to the
girl in heterosexual relationships.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
That's the patriot. It's the patriot. But you know, I
think it's changing a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Like there are definitely we've spoken about it before. There
are some women who have proposed to their fiancees or partners.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh, there's nothing wrong with it.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
But I wouldn't say it's changing that rapidly. I would
still say it is like a one percent.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Yeah, it's definitely the norm to kind of like wait
until the day that you're prince Charming if your one
has heterosexual relationship proposes to you, right. So Bella Thorne,
if you don't know who she is, she's an ex
Disney star, She's an actress.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
She also blew up like it, literally blew the hell
up because of her Only Fans. I think everyone started
to she became like more of a household name.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
But she holds the record for the highest earnings in
the first week of only Fans. She made two million
dollars within like six days of starting her only Fans
And I'm pretty sure she didn't even post anything yet.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I think she was like signing people were like ready
for it, ready for it. She didn't even have to post.
Maybe I'll try that good luck. All right.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Well, look, she's confused people online more so than anything.
I don't think people no one's up in arms. People
are just a little bit like but I don't understand.
So two years ago her partner proposed to her, or
a year ago, her partner proposed to her and he
got down on one knee, and she posted that she
was engaged and it was all happy times. Now, just
the other day she's posted herself down on one knee
(04:21):
proposing to her already existing fiance, and everyone's kind of like,
hold on, do we have deja vu?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Where I thought you were already engaged.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
She's decided that she wanted to propose back to her
partner to really solidify that she felt the same about
him as what he felt about her, and to kind
of like create this equality in the relationship. The question is,
is this absolutely ridiculous? Is it worth like the like,
I mean, the reason that someone would do it. Is
it even worth having to like reciprocate a proposal? Because
(04:51):
I kind of think that like saying yes to it
is the reciprocation.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
It is you've already agreed to it.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
I don't, to be honest, care that much about this,
but I understand that our job is to care.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I do find it unusual that the internet is caring
so much.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
No, like it was the comments more so, like people
in the comments are like like some people were like, yes, Queen,
I love this for you, like f yeah, girl, parent
other people who are like stand up, queen, what are
you doing?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
What are you doubt of you before? I also watched
the video and he gets down on his knees immediately,
like it's quite awkward to watch. But you know what,
who are pretty yuck? Anyone's yum.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
But I don't understand the point of it, Like like
you said, Laura saying yes, is you reciprocating and agreeing
to that union.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Maybe he just wanted to ring. Maybe he'd brought it
up that he would love for her to propose back.
I don't know what. Maybe they needed some content for Instagram.
Maybe it's working. Maybe they need to be pushed back.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Into the public eye, like a bit of pr or something.
But there's nothing wrong with a woman proposing. We've got
a woman in this room, producer Grace who proposed.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Produce a Grace proposed back.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, you literally did this, but your situation is a
little bit different.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Yes. So I my wife proposed to me a couple
of years ago, and then I had a ring also coming,
and I decided I wanted to propose back, But it
was more so because she wanted a ring as well,
and I also kind of wanted the experience of proposing.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Can I say? It really takes the stress out of it,
doesn't it.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You know that they're going to say yes, You're like, well,
I guess that, Like I don't have.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
To worry too much about this. One of the best
low stax questions I've ever asked. But how do you ask?
Do you say? Will you still marry me?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Like?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What's the what's the question? I think we kind of
like we kind.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Of played into the fact that it was a little
bit ridiculous. We were already engaged, and I did the
fool like will you marry me? It was very romantic
but also very chill.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Imagine she was like, no, that's awkward.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I've actually changed my may What if you're trying to
like proposal top like if you know if the second
one's better than the first one, do you then like
use that against them for.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The rest of your marriage, I mean healthy.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
It would have been used against me, I think, But
I didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I just wanted to for chill. I was like, we're
already engaged. That's not click. I didn't post it.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
It was just for us.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Oh, it was just real. Yeah, weird in this day
and age, that's just bizarre. I cartrelate to that at all.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Laura, Before I ask you this question, can you just
put this to bed for me? Is it pronounced a
beefa or a beza?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Isn't it a befa? I don't know, Okay, piza whatever, Well,
they're two different things. I don't know. I don't think
that's what we're going to talk about though. No we're not.
But I wanted to get it right before I told
you the story. But we don't know. Thanks for making
me look stupid on the radio. Okay, Well this is
a story set in Obitha.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Now there's a restaurant over there coming under fire for
something that they put onto.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
A bill they charged some tourists. These this couple went
to this nice restaurant.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
They sat down, the waitress came over, was very lovely,
put the napkin on them, and then said can I
take your bag and hang it up for you. She says, no,
do you know what, I'm okay, like it can stay here,
And the waitress was apparently like quite pushy for it,
like no, it's okay, like it's just just.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Like whatever.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
So after had a couple pushing, they agreed and said, okay,
it's okay, like hang it up anyway. The bill comes
out and on the bill is a charge which says
gant show boyser, which is eighteen dollars. Now gant show
boyser means bag hook. So they got charged eighteen dollars
to hang the bag up? Did they want to hang up?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Did they get to take the bag hook home?
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Now?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Did they purchase it? They take the whole bag hook?
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yeah, well it's not included normally. But they complained and
they're like, sorry, what we didn't A. You never said
that there was a charge. B. We didn't want to
do it, like you pushed us into it. And it
became this big thing so much so that like the
boss of the restaurant and the manager came out and
said that if it makes you feel better, you can
keep the.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Hookyok, why wouldn't they just refund the bag charge?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Do you know what they did that too.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I went to a Betha when I was in my
twenties and one thing though I did find super surprising
is that you know, when you go to the nightclubs,
the bottles of water are so expensive. This is going
back years and years ago, and at costlate twelve euro
for a bottle of water, that was it. And they
put salt water in all of the taps so that
when you wash your hands, you can't just refill your
(09:01):
bottle of water.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You've got to go and buy another bottle of water.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Because yeah, I mean we can all probably read between
the lines as to why water cells really well.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
And I beata, okay, yeah, well I do want to
say because I don't want to get in trouble. So
I don't want to get this restaurant in trouble. The
manager did say, look, it was a mistake. We enter
that in as a reminder to give you back your bag,
and we don't know how there was amount of money. Yeah,
but whatever I'm pulling, you can't slam them, but I
mean I can.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I think everyone's had like those little daylight robbery moments
where you go to pay the bill and you're like,
I'm sorry, what is that I got charged?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
The other day? Speaking of I get a coffee.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
My coffee order is a soy cappuccino with a little
squeeche of honey like dash like instead of a sugar,
I just put a little of honey in A.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Dollar fifty for a squeeze of honey. You squeeze of honey.
Oh my god, daylight robbery, daylight robbery, daylight robbery. And
you know what I think I'm going to start doing.
I don't know if this is classified as theft.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I might put the order in and pay and then say,
oh sorry, I forgot to add the honey, and then
they just couldn't be.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Bothered to charge yourself squad.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
But I imagine if they were like, sorry, you owe
us one dollar fifty, could you please to have.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Your card again?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I mean, look it usually and also I don't want
to come from cafes and whatnot, like they're out there
trying to run it honest business and make a dollar.
On the one time that it did spring me is
a bit of a surprise. I was at a cafe
with her group of girlfriends and this was when I
just had my daughter Marley made she was a tiny baby,
and I'd transferred her from breastfeeding onto formula. So we
(10:27):
were all there having lunch and I'd asked if I
could get a tiny bit of hot water that I
could put into her bottle to warm her bottle up.
And then the bill came and on there was a
charge for.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
The hot water.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I was like, I can't remember. It was like a
three dollar charge for hot water. And I was like,
surely not, surely it's just no, of course not.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I just paid it. Now I complain about it on radio. Hey,
we have Jordan on the line. Jordan, what did you
get stung for?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Hello? I took my three kids to go see a
live show and they of course wanted a snow cone.
That alone was twenty six dollars for a snow cone.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
And the ice, yeah it is with a bit of
coquarter on the top in.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
A fancy cup at least. And then the lady said
to me, would you like a spoon with that? And
I said yes, and she charged me six dollars to
buy the stone.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Oh my god, the twenty six dollars of ice didn't
even come with a way to eat it.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
No where where were you like don't don't even shame,
but like, no, dude, like is this it? Are you
like a fair?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
No?
Speaker 5 (11:28):
Like like a live show, like at like an entertainment center.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
But that doesn't surprise me because anytime I'm taken the
kids to a concert or something, you know, you go.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I think it might have been No, I don't know.
It was a Wiggles.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
It was some sort of kid's concert and they have
those like light up lighty toys, so you wait in
line forever and then you buy.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
It's like a piece of junk that they can like
spin around in the concert.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And we got to the front of the line and
I bought it, and I thought the number that was
next to the light up toy was the number saying.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Like what number item it was?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Because I didn't have a didn't have a dollar sign,
it just said two numbers and it was fifty dollars
each for this little stupid wizzy.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Anyway, whatever do you know, robbery?
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Do you just remind me of something I haven't thought
about until now. I remember being at this fancy restaurant
and the way it came over and I remember saying, like,
what do you recommend that's like not too heavy?
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I just want that something like a little bit extra.
And I think you were there, Laura, and he came
over and he said, do you know what I recommend?
He's like, it's very light, it's fresh. He's like, we
have a beautiful shaved ice. Do you remember? And then
I tried to keep it in and in my head
I was like, of course that's light, it's water. And
I was like, oh, the shaved ice. I was like,
(12:36):
how much is that? He was like twenty seven dollars.
I was like, interesting, I think I'll go for the salad.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
I could not believe it anyway, absolutely wild and in
the words of Laura Burn's grammar daylight robbery.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Well, it is that time of year again when we
decide to add new words to the dictionary. Does it
happen every year? It does? Yeah, every single year. So
this is actually really interesting. How many new words do
you think are created every year?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I would like to know how many words get deleted
from the Dictionary of the year, like a they e
redundant work.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I don't have that information, or does it just keep
getting it? Producer Grace is on the case as always, well,
whils Grace is googling that how many words. Do you
think I created a year? I just have a stab
twenty five wow. No, five thousand, four hundred new words
a year, yes, but how is creating them? I disagree?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Well, so four hundred words are created, but they're not
all added to the dictionary. So they're created because they
gain viral attraction. People use them in everyday language, but
that doesn't mean they're added officially to the dictionary. The
number added every year to the dictionary is about a thousand,
so every I mean, no wonder the language is so hard.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
It's like ever evolving. You can't keep up.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Well, I wanted to quiz you on a few of
these words, or I don't know if we're being aged out.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I don't know what it is. There are some that
I just didn't know what they were. Have a feeling
you might be okay with it. No, I know what
this is going to be.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
It's gonna be all those stupid like I don't want
to say stubid. It's kids in the car, the gen
z words that like millennials don't know. And I've seen
so many of these TikTok videos where like kids are
like that, what's this word? And then I don't pay
attention to what the word means, like I'm like, I know,
like skive it is one.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
Good one, Laura, because that is actually the first question, skibbity?
Speaker 2 (14:12):
What is skibbity? I have a feeling that skibbity means nothing?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Is that what it is?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Like, No, it doesn't mean because I think I think
it is, like it can mean a couple of different things,
or it can just be gibberish, like I think it
actually can mean nothing as one of their Oh.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
My god, you actually that's right. I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I did not read the full sentence, which is also
like just such a stupid word, Like how does a.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Word that means nothing end up in the dick? Why
do we need it? It could be cool or it's
nothing because the two things. That's actually right? How did
you know that?
Speaker 4 (14:41):
So it could mean bad cool or bad or has
no real meaning at all as a joke, I don't
even know that means.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
It's like literally can just be like a gibberish thing
like yeah, whatever, skibbity.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Your four year old says, skibbity. I don't know why
my brain notes that. Okay, I'm so sorry. I'm sure
I'm sure, all right. What about this prolligharky, prolly ghaky,
prolli ghaky. I've never heard of it. It's a real word,
something to umbrellas, like when it's no, no, no, it's
not getting shut on by a bird. Brother, I don't
(15:14):
know what is it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
It's a blend of bro and oligarchy, which means a
small group of men, often owning tech companies, who are
extremely rich and powerful and who have or want of
political influence life.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I love that you're quizzing me on this, but you
have to read it word for word because you're like,
I don't even know this.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
You say that definition, and it's people like Elon Musk,
for example, or like the Jeff Bezos groligarky oligarchy in.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Like a bro tech bros worse.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Yeah, okay, we have mouse jiggler, someone who jiggles mouse mice.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Mac could be taken a few different ways. You're nobody
who has a real fetish for jiggling mice. She actually
sailed it.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
You're actually not far off, but not the animal mouse
like a device or a piece of software that you
can use that will like wiggle your mouse to make
it look like you're working.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, We've talked about this before. I used to live
with someone. Her name is Vanessa, Love her to death.
She now works for us, and she's a very hard
work of us. But back in the day, back in
the day when we lived together, she used to work
for a bank or something, and they had like you
had to log on online and every fifteen minutes, if
your mouse hadn't moved, it would clock that you're not
actually working.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
So she would just sit there watching Netflix and every
so often move her laptop mouth. She needed a mouse trig.
I'm glad we hired her. Ah, so all right, you're
too good at that.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
So I'm going to take a little bit of a
seguey here. We just had producer Grace look up for
you some words that got deleted from the dictionary this year.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Well, I asked how many. We couldn't find the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
So now instead, producer Grace just found words that are
no longer existing.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Yeah, okay, Laura. Number one sperm ologer someone who investigates
the sperm.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
It's actually a gossiper, someone filmed with random knowledge. So
not you.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Hasn't I yet to do with sperm? Yeah? Poor use
of that. Okay, it's better things. Would you can just
call them a gosper slubber de gullion, a sluter degullion.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
I reckon, it's an insult. I think it's someone you
don't like, someone who's done something wrong. You're there, A
slubb degullion.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
It's someone who slobbers a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Yeah, somebody don't like it had to be right, the
slavery slubberedgullion.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Okay, snolly Goston.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
It's also someone who's like you don't like. That's a
snorty person.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
No, it's a politician from the nineteenth century who wins
by fraud.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
There is Snolly Goston. This has got to go in
the bin with the words this whole segment, O, hey,
last one a cri crank them. I don't know, Britt,
I would use this for you. I'm a crink Claura.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
Let me put in a sentence, Laura loves the vibe
of crank them.

Just put us all out of our misery and tell
us what it means like when an outfit.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Of decor is over the top. I do love a crinkum.
Crank them. That's it?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yeah, okay, cool, I'm going to update my Instagram status
to Laura the Crank Rock, I don't even.
