Speaker 1 (00:14):
Come on, hello, Hi guys, welcome, How are you guys?
Because I had an epic fail this morning?
Speaker 2 (00:25):
What have you done to yourself? Britt? So what I
did to myself?
Speaker 3 (00:28):
No, it is you're self aware of anything. Yeah, yeah,
and that's why, just myself.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I got up this morning obviously in a rush for
I didn't have to rush anywhere, but I just like
threw my clothes on, went out the door. I had
a bunch of errands to run. I needed to walk
my dog, Dolilah. I had to have a business meeting
at a cafe. I had to do a whole bunch
of stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Sounds like a busy day for you.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
It was.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
So four hours deep, you know, running around like a maniac.
I had these bike pans on that have a pocket
in the side. Do you know you can slide your
phone into them?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Like active we it.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Slide your phone?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Oh four or five hours d.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
The pants? Well, sorry, on the lega. What happened? What happened? Happened?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
What happened to my pocket that was on the side
of my active wormage? I went to slide my phone
in and there was no pocket, And I was like,
what where did I go?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
And then I.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Realized that before and a half hours, I had my
pants on inside out and the whole. It's one of
those pants that has like that has a big flappy tag,
but it has all the information like written on the inside.
So I had a whole Everyone knew where it was, from,
what size it was, what the it was, the washing
instructions all down my backside, and nobody told me.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
I think the worst part. I mean, like, actually, one up,
there's worse than this. I I have once come to
work with my underwear back to front but didn't even
notice over the top I had pants on, but I
had I went to the bathroom, I looked down and
I was like, my underwear is completely back to front,
which one would assume is uncomfortable, but it wasn't for me.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
It felt completely normal. Well, when there's more room in
the back then there is in the front, SNE's gone wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
So I took my pants off to change them, and
my undis were on inside out too.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
So the morning anyway, I never had anything like that.
There some other big predicaments today.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah, we gotta ask on coming up guys, wowsers. I
have a spicy one.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
We've got a woman that is caught in the middle
of some epic, hectic cheating.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Oh gode little strong feelings on cheating, comet the pick up.
It's Thursday.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Let's do this, ask uncata, ask unhart, or, as we
fondly refer to it, therapy Thursdays.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Where you guys ride any deeper, darkest burning questions. Sometimes
you call in and we do our best to answer them.
And we have a really tricky one today. We've had
stiff call in.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Hi guys, Hi, Yeah, we're good. What's your question for us?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Okay, So I'm in a real moral dilemma. My best friend,
I found out a little while ago she has been
having an affair with a guy that is married to
one of our other friends. Now, this girl isn't a
very good friend, so the one that is getting cheated on,
(03:15):
we're sort of like we're acquaintances, but we do see
each other every now and then. But it's my best friend.
And I told her to stop it like that she
had to end it, and she promised me that she had,
and I've just found out that she started it back
up again and again. I've told her to stop it,
(03:37):
and it's not fair and it's really bad and all that.
But I've said, if you don't tell her like or
if you don't stop it, I'm going to need to
tell her. But it's my best friends. But I would
then be betraying So what do I do?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Is she in a relationship as well?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Or she single and she's she's just been in a
very nicey relationship.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
She's single, but it's not like she doesn't know that
she's having an affair.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
But she's cheating.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
But she's betraying I mean, you're worried about betraying her.
She's betraying you by lying to you. She said, oh
it's done, you know, like we're not doing any more.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, she's lying.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Blankantly to you.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
You've already made it clear that is making you extremely uncomfortable.
I'm I am exactly where you are.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I don't think I could continue, and I definitely could
not be around the woman that is in the marriage,
like I could not be around that couple knowing that
my friend was. You know, this is the demise causing
the demise.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Of their relationship.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
It actually kind of kind of sounds complicated to follow it,
but I almost think if you've given your friend, have
you given her an ultimatum at or have you said,
like you need to tell her or you know, I
can't be I can't be friends with you anyone, Like
have you had that conversation or is that almost too far?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You don't want to break the friendship up? Your friendship up?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I couldn't break the friendship up because we've been friends
for that long. But yes, I have said you need
like you need to stop, or like something something has
to something has to give. So you don't know that that.
I'm like, how long do I give it? Do I give?
Do I give her an ultimatum like by this date
(05:10):
it needs to stop, or I'll approach him.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
I reckon give him the ultimatum, because it either means
he's going to have to come clean or he will
keep it totally secret. But the problem is is when
you give an ultimatum, there has to be a consequence.
So if you say, well you have to tell, you
have to tell your partner that you're having your cheating,
and then if he doesn't do it, like what's what
are you going to do?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
What's the end result?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
So I guess the thing is is like, unless you
are going to be the one to go and say
something to either his wife or you're going to say
something to him if you're not going to do anything
because you don't want to mess up your relationship with
your best friend. Ultimatums without consequences mean nothing. Yeah, so
I feel like in a really tricky place. I think
you either have to make the decision that you are
(05:50):
going to be the honest one and kind of out
the whole relationship, or you just you know, you just
have to kind of go with it.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
I've been cheated on and then I found out that
the person that cheated on me or his friends knew,
and IM like.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I hate all the friends friends of them totally. Like
I still could be.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
We were friends through the relationship, but now I don't
want a bar of them because they were complicit in
my mind.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And think about what you want to know? Is like
if you were in that situation, would you want to know?
And chances are you would Yes, I.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Would want to know, And I would also hate everyone
that knew it and didn't tell me.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah yeah, yeah, oh good luck. Let us know when
you've done the deed. I shouldn't last. But I'm like, God, Laura,
what are your kid whos been doing this? Week, my
kids might be gifted.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Now, I know that that could be a stretch, but
I want your help with this because they have started
doing something and I think that they are exceptional at it.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
And I'm going to explain to your wife, the mums
of Australia we need to take on this too. We'll
do it next on the pick.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Up all right now, I don't know if I'm being
just like a biased mum, you know, like I think
every mom thinks that their kids sometimes are pretty amazing.
And every so often Marley and Laula Maley's for Lawla's
two every stiff and they do things and I'm like.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Is this exception all for their age? Like are they amazing?
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Or if these are, it's not, no, Like I don't.
I mean, there's a good chance that it's the case.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Well what have they done?
Speaker 5 (07:08):
But every so often I'm like, oh, surely that this
is surely you're a remarkable little human okay. And I
say this because Marley and Lawla they're very into performing.
And I don't know where they get them that from
in our family, but they like to they like to
do concerts. They're always like, mummy, sit down, I'm going
to do a concert show. Now they've taken on singing,
but not just singing. They like to sit down at
(07:29):
the podcast machine, like where we record our podcast.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, to sit down. They like to record.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Themselves because there's microphones and they can hear their voice
and they.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Can hear it very official and it's really cute. Like
they're really into it.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
So they'll come home from their little daycare and they're like, mummy,
put on the podcast machine. I want to do a podcast.
But they don't realize it. Usually talk on a podcast.
You don't sing like you're Beyonce. Anyway, I think that
they might be gifted. I think my kids can sing.
And now I don't know whether I am clouded by
a mother's love or maybe there's something there and we
should explore all this talent and we should lean into
(08:01):
it and I should get them onto like baby stars
or something.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
You're coming to Britain. I you're coming to Britain, I for.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Set up their own profiles.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That are we're supposed to We're supposed to be that
like the chair that turns around and says, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
You can be the boy boys.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
We're critiquing a four year old and a two years old.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
All right, now I expect excellence from them.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Bring it on, old critiquet, happily do it all right?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Fred has no issue with this. I mean, no, be gentle,
be kind. They might hear this one day.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You said they're exceptional. I don't think I have to
be kind.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
Really, I think it's really sweet, and I think that
they've got potential.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Okay, this is Marley, all right?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
How old's Marley? Molly's for this four year old Marley?
Speaker 6 (08:34):
She the boys?
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Oh my killer, I am well, it was hard to
have exceptional musical gene.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
She definitely trails off.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
She doesn't finish a sentence like a word, so I
don't quite know what she was saying.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
She's poor.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
She doesn't know what she was saying either a Dutch
it sounded no.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
She's singing like an old English nursery rhyme song.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
She a child from the Pilgrims. She's singing about the
milk flu What the hell is she singing? It's a
no from me.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Woh, it's a no from me.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
She's not going to Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
She's only four.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
She's brilliant, all right. You can't wait both ways. You
can't say my kid is exceptional genius. And then when
we critique her, you're like, she's only four. I feel
like you're holding a too high a standard for this. Okay,
now you need to listen to Lola.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
She's too She's very into Disney at the moment, so like,
just yeah, praise yourself.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Dum baggy girl.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Oh she she gets the high pitched she.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I think she needs to take her own feedback and
let it go.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I think Marley also needs to take Lola's feedback and
let it go.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Okay, well, I've enrolled them in singing lessons you have
not have you actually and dance classes. I'll let you
know how it goes.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Next up, I had the moment from hell I had.
I had a date over at my house and he
got trapped in a room. Listen, it was really bad.
I had a date in a cupboard.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, you had to come out. Still, I'll tell you
that next. I'm a pickup ladies.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
I haven't told you this story yet, but I spoke
about Brad, the guy that I'm seeing. Brad it's a
fake name, so you know, I'd never date an actual Brad.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
But I'm dating a guys. But it's nice. It's been
a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
It's like situationship vibes, and the crux at the issue
of this relationship is it's that Brad hasn't met my
family yet, because I don't want to bring someone home
at the moment.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You're not ready.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
You're not exclusive, so like you don't want to introduce
him to your parents and then have to you know,
makes it a bit more serious.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
And it's heading that way. It's nice, but I don't
want to do it yet.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
No, you're not exclusive.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
He does, now, that's what I was thinking anyway. So
Break came over after work the other day. My sister
was home right, and my sister was upstairs the way
where I live. It's a downstairs side entrance to the house,
so Brad can come and go doesn't have to see
the family, so it was kind of perfect. And they
don't even know he's there exactly. He doesn't know Brad
was over, so he said come after work. He arrived,
I said, hi, he goes Hey, I'd kill for a shower.
(11:17):
I've just I've just had a shift, Like, no worries
down stairs.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I've just had a ship. I thought I had a poo.
Can I need a shower?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Well, it's really that's why we're not exclusive. Is just
he goes, I've had a ship.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
I go go have a shower, and I share this
downstairs area with my sister Rachel. So Rachel's upstairs watching TV.
He goes in the shower, water comes on. I can
hear at the door closes. One of those bathrooms where
the shower is separate to the basin. They're in different rooms.
So as I there, I go to get him a
towel and I put it on my bed and go.
He'll message me when he's done. I hear Rachel my
(11:56):
sister come downstairs because it's nighttime.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
He's come over at night.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
Rachel, my sister has decided it's time to do her
skincare routine, which is right outside the shower that Brad's
currently in.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So does she currently think that it's you in the shower?
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Yeah, because I'm in my bedroom. Brad text me and goes,
who's outside? Is that you outside? I go, no, it's
not me outside, it's Rachel. Just give it two seconds.
She'll do it. She'll do what she needs to do.
She'll run back upstairs. Rachel is twenty four. She's a
TikTok girls. She's in there, go assuring with a jade roller.
It's called Yeah, she'sing. She puts her four different serums on.
(12:34):
She decides to do a hair mask.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
It's time for omni lux.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
She's got a fifteen minute treatment in there, like a
face massage, doing everything.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Brad messages me, it's like, hey, it's been like five minutes,
Like can I come out?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I'm like no, she's still in there. Just like, give
a couple more minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Don't have to step two?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Yeah, exactly. Then she decides she needs to do an
led face mask.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Oh, and you can't even go and say to her
that she needs to hurry up, because then she'll know
that he's in the shower.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
She thinks it's me in there, so I can't it's
a boy, but she yes, I.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Can't run out.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
What do you think you're doing in there?
Speaker 6 (13:02):
Problem is Brad also didn't have a towel, so Paul
Brad he's in there shivering. Then I get a text
and he goes, hey, the heat lamp doesn't work. So
he's in there at ten thirty at night, shivering, his
body doesn't have a towel.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
He's dripping wet over bar.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
You can't.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Why don't you just get back in the shower. Just
turn it back on, stay in their hot water.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I rely not use my water dare That would end
it right there on that.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah, Michelle Cherry would be downstairs. You're like, get out
of the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Then I hear Rachel start the blow dryer up, so
the blow dryer is on one.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Yeah, is he still in the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
He still has He's still in the shower. He hasn't left.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
After thirty five minutes, Rachel ran upstairs and I had
to get him one of those like alfoil blankets up
for a car crash.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Then just hold him for an hour.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I means you are a horrible fake situation ship boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
That is horrible.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
You cannot leave your partner shivering to death in the
shower alone because you don't want to say to your sister, Hey,
like my guy, I'm seeing he's in the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
What's out of respect? We haven't had that conversation yet.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Wait, respect for who are you?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
My personal respect?
Speaker 2 (14:02):
It's personal respect for myself.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
You have to tell your family it doesn't you live
at home, so like it's it doesn't mean it's going
to the next step and it's official.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
But you can't just keep.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Smuggling someone in your duffel bag and then leave them
in the shower.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
So how would your parents feel if they knew that
you were sneaking him in?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Because they don't know that this is happening. I mean
they might now, but how would.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
They feel if, like, on a Thursday night, there's actually
a boy downstairs and they had no idea.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
The thing is, it wouldn't be a problem with the family,
They love all that, but they would want to go
and talk to him and have a bottle of wine
with him, and then you know they'd want to it'd
be a connection straight away. So that's what I don't
want to That's why I want to do it.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You don't want to connect for you totally?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
No, Well, we've been connecting for you.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah, but yeah, connecting passing yeaheah, I understand.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
I feel like you need to start playing the away games.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
Let's go.
Speaker 6 (14:50):

it on the iHeartRadio app.

Or she single and she's she's just been in a
very nicey relationship.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
She's single, but it's not like she doesn't know that
she's having an affair.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
But she's cheating.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
But she's betraying I mean, you're worried about betraying her.
She's betraying you by lying to you. She said, oh
it's done, you know, like we're not doing any more.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, she's lying.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Blankantly to you.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
You've already made it clear that is making you extremely uncomfortable.
I'm I am exactly where you are.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I don't think I could continue, and I definitely could
not be around the woman that is in the marriage,
like I could not be around that couple knowing that
my friend was. You know, this is the demise causing
the demise.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Of their relationship.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
It actually kind of kind of sounds complicated to follow it,
but I almost think if you've given your friend, have
you given her an ultimatum at or have you said,
like you need to tell her or you know, I
can't be I can't be friends with you anyone, Like
have you had that conversation or is that almost too far?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
You don't want to break the friendship up? Your friendship up?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I couldn't break the friendship up because we've been friends
for that long. But yes, I have said you need
like you need to stop, or like something something has
to something has to give. So you don't know that that.
I'm like, how long do I give it? Do I give?
Do I give her an ultimatum like by this date
(05:10):
it needs to stop, or I'll approach him.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
I reckon give him the ultimatum, because it either means
he's going to have to come clean or he will
keep it totally secret. But the problem is is when
you give an ultimatum, there has to be a consequence.
So if you say, well you have to tell, you
have to tell your partner that you're having your cheating,
and then if he doesn't do it, like what's what
are you going to do?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
What's the end result?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
So I guess the thing is is like, unless you
are going to be the one to go and say
something to either his wife or you're going to say
something to him if you're not going to do anything
because you don't want to mess up your relationship with
your best friend. Ultimatums without consequences mean nothing. Yeah, so
I feel like in a really tricky place. I think
you either have to make the decision that you are
(05:50):
going to be the honest one and kind of out
the whole relationship, or you just you know, you just
have to kind of go with it.
Speaker 6 (05:57):
I've been cheated on and then I found out that
the person that cheated on me or his friends knew,
and IM like.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I hate all the friends friends of them totally. Like
I still could be.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
We were friends through the relationship, but now I don't
want a bar of them because they were complicit in
my mind.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And think about what you want to know? Is like
if you were in that situation, would you want to know?
And chances are you would Yes, I.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Would want to know, And I would also hate everyone
that knew it and didn't tell me.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah yeah, yeah, oh good luck. Let us know when
you've done the deed. I shouldn't last. But I'm like, God, Laura,
what are your kid whos been doing this? Week, my
kids might be gifted.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
Now, I know that that could be a stretch, but
I want your help with this because they have started
doing something and I think that they are exceptional at it.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
And I'm going to explain to your wife, the mums
of Australia we need to take on this too. We'll
do it next on the pick.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Up all right now, I don't know if I'm being
just like a biased mum, you know, like I think
every mom thinks that their kids sometimes are pretty amazing.
And every so often Marley and Laula Maley's for Lawla's
two every stiff and they do things and I'm like.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Is this exception all for their age? Like are they amazing?
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Or if these are, it's not, no, Like I don't.
I mean, there's a good chance that it's the case.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Well what have they done?
Speaker 5 (07:08):
But every so often I'm like, oh, surely that this
is surely you're a remarkable little human okay. And I
say this because Marley and Lawla they're very into performing.
And I don't know where they get them that from
in our family, but they like to they like to
do concerts. They're always like, mummy, sit down, I'm going
to do a concert show. Now they've taken on singing,
but not just singing. They like to sit down at
(07:29):
the podcast machine, like where we record our podcast.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Yeah, to sit down. They like to record.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Themselves because there's microphones and they can hear their voice
and they.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Can hear it very official and it's really cute. Like
they're really into it.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
So they'll come home from their little daycare and they're like, mummy,
put on the podcast machine. I want to do a podcast.
But they don't realize it. Usually talk on a podcast.
You don't sing like you're Beyonce. Anyway, I think that
they might be gifted. I think my kids can sing.
And now I don't know whether I am clouded by
a mother's love or maybe there's something there and we
should explore all this talent and we should lean into
(08:01):
it and I should get them onto like baby stars
or something.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
You're coming to Britain. I you're coming to Britain, I for.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Set up their own profiles.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That are we're supposed to We're supposed to be that
like the chair that turns around and says, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
You can be the boy boys.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
We're critiquing a four year old and a two years old.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
All right, now I expect excellence from them.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Bring it on, old critiquet, happily do it all right?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Fred has no issue with this. I mean, no, be gentle,
be kind. They might hear this one day.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You said they're exceptional. I don't think I have to
be kind.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
Really, I think it's really sweet, and I think that
they've got potential.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Okay, this is Marley, all right?
Speaker 3 (08:31):
How old's Marley? Molly's for this four year old Marley?
Speaker 6 (08:34):
She the boys?
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Oh my killer, I am well, it was hard to
have exceptional musical gene.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
She definitely trails off.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
She doesn't finish a sentence like a word, so I
don't quite know what she was saying.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
She's poor.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
She doesn't know what she was saying either a Dutch
it sounded no.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
She's singing like an old English nursery rhyme song.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
She a child from the Pilgrims. She's singing about the
milk flu What the hell is she singing? It's a
no from me.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Woh, it's a no from me.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
She's not going to Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
She's only four.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
She's brilliant, all right. You can't wait both ways. You
can't say my kid is exceptional genius. And then when
we critique her, you're like, she's only four. I feel
like you're holding a too high a standard for this. Okay,
now you need to listen to Lola.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
She's too She's very into Disney at the moment, so like,
just yeah, praise yourself.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Dum baggy girl.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Oh she she gets the high pitched she.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I think she needs to take her own feedback and
let it go.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I think Marley also needs to take Lola's feedback and
let it go.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Okay, well, I've enrolled them in singing lessons you have
not have you actually and dance classes. I'll let you
know how it goes.
Speaker 6 (10:07):
Next up, I had the moment from hell I had.
I had a date over at my house and he
got trapped in a room. Listen, it was really bad.
I had a date in a cupboard.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, you had to come out. Still, I'll tell you
that next. I'm a pickup ladies.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
I haven't told you this story yet, but I spoke
about Brad, the guy that I'm seeing. Brad it's a
fake name, so you know, I'd never date an actual Brad.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
But I'm dating a guys. But it's nice. It's been
a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
It's like situationship vibes, and the crux at the issue
of this relationship is it's that Brad hasn't met my
family yet, because I don't want to bring someone home
at the moment.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You're not ready.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
You're not exclusive, so like you don't want to introduce
him to your parents and then have to you know,
makes it a bit more serious.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
And it's heading that way. It's nice, but I don't
want to do it yet.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
No, you're not exclusive.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
He does, now, that's what I was thinking anyway. So
Break came over after work the other day. My sister
was home right, and my sister was upstairs the way
where I live. It's a downstairs side entrance to the house,
so Brad can come and go doesn't have to see
the family, so it was kind of perfect. And they
don't even know he's there exactly. He doesn't know Brad
was over, so he said come after work. He arrived,
I said, hi, he goes Hey, I'd kill for a shower.
(11:17):
I've just I've just had a shift, Like, no worries
down stairs.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I've just had a ship. I thought I had a poo.
Can I need a shower?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Well, it's really that's why we're not exclusive. Is just
he goes, I've had a ship.
Speaker 6 (11:34):
I go go have a shower, and I share this
downstairs area with my sister Rachel. So Rachel's upstairs watching TV.
He goes in the shower, water comes on. I can
hear at the door closes. One of those bathrooms where
the shower is separate to the basin. They're in different rooms.
So as I there, I go to get him a
towel and I put it on my bed and go.
He'll message me when he's done. I hear Rachel my
(11:56):
sister come downstairs because it's nighttime.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
He's come over at night.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
Rachel, my sister has decided it's time to do her
skincare routine, which is right outside the shower that Brad's
currently in.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So does she currently think that it's you in the shower?
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Yeah, because I'm in my bedroom. Brad text me and goes,
who's outside? Is that you outside? I go, no, it's
not me outside, it's Rachel. Just give it two seconds.
She'll do it. She'll do what she needs to do.
She'll run back upstairs. Rachel is twenty four. She's a
TikTok girls. She's in there, go assuring with a jade roller.
It's called Yeah, she'sing. She puts her four different serums on.
(12:34):
She decides to do a hair mask.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
It's time for omni lux.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
She's got a fifteen minute treatment in there, like a
face massage, doing everything.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Brad messages me, it's like, hey, it's been like five minutes,
Like can I come out?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I'm like no, she's still in there. Just like, give
a couple more minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Don't have to step two?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Yeah, exactly. Then she decides she needs to do an
led face mask.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
Oh, and you can't even go and say to her
that she needs to hurry up, because then she'll know
that he's in the shower.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
She thinks it's me in there, so I can't it's
a boy, but she yes, I.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Can't run out.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
What do you think you're doing in there?
Speaker 6 (13:02):
Problem is Brad also didn't have a towel, so Paul
Brad he's in there shivering. Then I get a text
and he goes, hey, the heat lamp doesn't work. So
he's in there at ten thirty at night, shivering, his
body doesn't have a towel.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
He's dripping wet over bar.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
You can't.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Why don't you just get back in the shower. Just
turn it back on, stay in their hot water.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I rely not use my water dare That would end
it right there on that.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah, Michelle Cherry would be downstairs. You're like, get out
of the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Then I hear Rachel start the blow dryer up, so
the blow dryer is on one.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Yeah, is he still in the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
He still has He's still in the shower. He hasn't left.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
After thirty five minutes, Rachel ran upstairs and I had
to get him one of those like alfoil blankets up
for a car crash.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Then just hold him for an hour.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I means you are a horrible fake situation ship boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
That is horrible.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
You cannot leave your partner shivering to death in the
shower alone because you don't want to say to your sister, Hey,
like my guy, I'm seeing he's in the shower.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
What's out of respect? We haven't had that conversation yet.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Wait, respect for who are you?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
My personal respect?
Speaker 2 (14:02):
It's personal respect for myself.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
You have to tell your family it doesn't you live
at home, so like it's it doesn't mean it's going
to the next step and it's official.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
But you can't just keep.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Smuggling someone in your duffel bag and then leave them
in the shower.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
So how would your parents feel if they knew that
you were sneaking him in?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Because they don't know that this is happening. I mean
they might now, but how would.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
They feel if, like, on a Thursday night, there's actually
a boy downstairs and they had no idea.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
The thing is, it wouldn't be a problem with the family,
They love all that, but they would want to go
and talk to him and have a bottle of wine
with him, and then you know they'd want to it'd
be a connection straight away. So that's what I don't
want to That's why I want to do it.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
You don't want to connect for you totally?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
No, Well, we've been connecting for you.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah, but yeah, connecting passing yeaheah, I understand.
