the most amazing coffee I've ever had. This is the
most incredible coffee I've ever had. And me and Kia

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, Molly, it was your week, cool, cracked, cool.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I've had back to back cool weeks, guys. But my
best friend here, like my best friend from when I
was little, who lives here, just thought i'd clarify that
he just had a baby, like literally a week and
a half.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, congratulations, it was a boy.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It was a boy, really cute named George, and he's
really really cute George. Wait, why is that devastating?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Because I want a girl for my first right? What
do you want first?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I want a girl.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah. If it comes out and it's not a girl,
straight back.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Up, No, I just still love him. I'd still straight
back up, she said, straight back put it back. You
better change your damn gender and get back out. Yeah.
So my week was cooled, but that was fun.

Jared just texted and said, oh my god, there is
a new pod today. I'm shook.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Oh, Jazza, see that's what the Tuesday. The Tuesday drops
the doing of people.

Should we try and call Bets one more time?
Speaker 1 (06:24):

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Thanks, Bets.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Bye, She's grist She's the best.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Bye bye, Bets. Wow, Bets, I cannot believe what I
just heard, Bets Tilly. Oh god, guys, guys, you're in
for it with this podcast. I'll tell you that much.
You don't know what you're going to get, Like you
listening don't know what you're going to get, but Grace
(09:11):
and I don't know what we're going to get. That
was definitely I mean, everything's off the script here, but
that was completely off the script.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
That was a train.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Well, Bets, thank you for that. There you go. There's
the breakdown. We're talking about living abroad and whether that's
something that everyone should try at least once, which is
actually quite fitting because actually maybe it has been a
little crack for me lately. I just I just moved
apartments guys. One yeah, guys, I thought I completely underestimated
how hard it is to move apartments and let me
(09:49):
and let me get you, Like, tell you guys that
this wasn't us moving actual apartment blocks, Like we're in
the same apartment complex. We just moved up three levels.
But I underestimated the whole process. Didn't have any boxes
or anything ready. You know. I just thought, I'll do
a couple of trips. It'll take me half a day,
we'll get it all in there. The hardest parts will
(10:09):
be the couch in the bed, but whatever, Right, this
took me the whole damn day, Like the whole day.
My back was broken. It was the worst thing ever. Yeah,
it was just absolutely dreadful and I never want to
do it again. But it did have me thinking about
like all of the times that I did live in
different parts of the world, well America, right, like my
(10:29):
first move all the way to college at eighteen years old,
you know what I mean? Until you said, yeah, you
just said before you've lived in Malaysia, so you obviously
get it as well. But like, talk to me about
where you've been and your experiences on living abroad because
you moved pretty early, right till.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah, in twenty eleven, we moved to Malaysia.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
And how old were you?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
I was ten, right, did for dad's work.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Yeah, right, he's.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
In school, so he just went over. So it's an incentive.
You live abroad, they pay for your housing, they pay
your car whatever, and they get teachers.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
So it works.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Is it a nice place that you had?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Awful?
Speaker 1 (11:06):
It was just a hard Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I was so angry with.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
All your friends and stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It's not even like you're moving to America where there's
like cafeterias and everything. Like it was a massive culture shock.
I moved to Malaysia.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Wild.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
That's wild, Like everything is completely different. For example, you
go to swim in the ocean and you're literally stung
by giant jellyfish. Like we all went swimming first day.
It's disgusting. It's so dirty you can't even swim. You
have to swim in pools.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, you're so ruddy. And when you're at school, it's
like wild a lot. It's so many different cultures. People
speak a million different languages, and like the curriculum is
so different. I remember this is I don't know if
I'm allowed to say this. I remember Zeke came home
from school one day and you get changed in like
(11:57):
the pe rooms because it's a private school. Also, even
in primary school, if you're doing pea, you'll get changed.
You don't just wear your normal uniform.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
So you went to a nice school, like a nice
primary school.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Yeah. Correct. And Zeke came home after pee and he
was like, all the Asian kids told me, my penis
is too big.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Oh my god, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
See and he was getting bullied for it. Oh because
all of them.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh, this is what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Just weed different completely.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
So like the food, everything is so cheap. Twenty cents
for a cornado, twenty cents for a can of drink.
When you go down to the little restaurants, they serve
food in plastic bag, so you'd go and pay a
dollar and you'd get a bag of nan bread and
you'd get a bag of dull and you'd just eat
your food like it was so much more chill. But
(13:01):
like that stuff amazing. But other things like there's monkeys everywhere,
there's wild dogs everywhere. The first day we went to school,
we thought, oh, we'll just do a lovely walk through
the rainforest. Literally get attacked by monkeys.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well that's what scares me. Over there, the monkey's jumping
on me and getting in my hair.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I'm just trying to picture being like a ten year
old who's living in Australia and then one day you're
living in Malaysia. Yeah, on holiday there.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
I was just gonna say, on that Grace, how long, Well,
how long did you or did your dad plan on
being there? How long did you guys live there? Like
what was the plan? Was he like, oh, We're just
going to be here for the next three years or
like what did that? What was that?
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Like?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
I think the plan was to stay there semi long term,
like maybe like a few years, but we only stayed
a year. We weren't very happy there, well because you
guys were, Yeah, we hated it. Dad also has had
a stroke in the past and because of the heat,
his heart was playing up bad. So that was lucky
because we got to go home.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Oh my god. Yeah, I mean that's a that's a
that's an optimistic way to look at it. Yeah. Yeah,
so you guys went home because of that as well.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, if I holidayed there, I'd froth it. Incredible fruit food,
incredible culture, and go to an island that you can
actually swim at that's not polluted.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
But yeah, the biggest move you've ever done.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Oh yeah, the only other thing. I grew up on
a farm and then I moved to the city. Yeah,
like but nothing overseas, but Marley, tell me about Americana.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
So you moved for college.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
I moved for college Greece. I moved when I was eighteen,
and I went over because after high school, like the
next the next step for unless you go professional for
basketball is going to college. So that was always a
huge thing but really hard thing for like Australians to do.
But I got a scholarship to go to Pepperdine in Malibu.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Ah, that's like an iconic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
That's where Zoey one O one was filmed.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Can you tell me how you felt when you got
accepted for that? Did you do one of those college
acceptance videos that they post, Well, that wasn't the thing
back then.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I went for a lot of back and forth, like
talking with the coaches, a lot of game like game
film sent to them, and then they took me out
on a visit. So they flew me out for two
three days. I worked out with the guys and then
they offered in a scholarship on the last day.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Yeah, yeah, they iratulation Sally, that's so cool. So what
you were eighteen or something?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, No, I was probably eighteen by then. I think
I was driving. Yeah, so I was just just turned eighteen. Yeah,
and then moved over when I was eighteen.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Sorry, can you quickly tell them how much it costs
a year there that you told me?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, scholarships the memory, I don't know if it was
sixty thousand a semester or sixty thousand a year, but
it could have been. It could have been. Yeah, this
is like and this school, guys, this school is like
the richest of the rich go to this school, like
from whoa, from all parts of the world. These are
like kids that I got to campus and talk about
(15:56):
a culture shock, like going to California as in a
huge culture shock for us from Australia, Like it's beechy
palm trees, pretty chill vibe, you know what I mean,
and cool people. But it was a culture shock going
to this school because me coming from you know, just
Australia and Melbourne and how I live to then getting
to campus and there's eighteen year olds, nineteen year olds
driving around in Ferraris and Lamborghinis and Mercedes and you
(16:20):
name it like these kids. Yeah, and people were like
right away they would like let us. Me and my
buddy that was on the team. We'd ask to like
borrow someone's car and they'd be like yeah, they were
like really cool about it. And it's like a range
Rover or something like that. They're like, yeah, whatever, you
can have the keys, like just go just bring about it.
That's like. And we'd have it for days sometimes and
just park it somewhere else on camp. It was really bizarre.
(16:42):
But yeah, moving to America was Yeah, it was crazy.
It was like a huge, huge deal, especially because I'm
like so family orientated, so that was hard. But outside
of that, I was so focused on basketball and studies,
Like you don't really have time to miss home, you know,
So it was like an easy transition for me.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Would you have wanted to move to the States if
it weren't for basketball, Like, do you reckon? You'd want
to move somewhere that sees for the sake of it?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
No, just to do definitely not. Nah. If it wasn't
for basketball, I probably wouldn't have done it, which is crazy. Yeah,
I probably wouldn't have, even like I might have if
it maybe came up in university like an exchange program.
But my in my head and like from fifteen years old,
it was never like go to UNI. At home, it
was always I'm going to oh really like that was always.
(17:32):
That was always what.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I was doing.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, I didn't I didn't even process what my life
would have looked like in any other capacity, you know
what I mean. So I don't think I would have,
which is actually a really interesting question. Grace, Like I
and that's crazy. Your wife. Yeah, literally, I met my
literal wife. That would have been the biggest move because
I was eighteen atulations. Yeah, I was a kid, you know,
away from my mum and dad for the first time
(17:55):
in my march. Yeah, it was kind of kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Guys. We actually I'm gonna may, I think let's just
do a full college episode. I just want to be
part of the college experience. For let's sit here with
alcohol and drink from red cups. Let's do that college experience.
By the way, I had a drink of alcohol on
the weekend.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
How'd that go?
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It was fantastic?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
What was it?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Guys? I'm like, basically like two years no drinking and.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're back on now.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
I'm back on because I have to prepare myself for
your wedding.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Oh is that what you're prepping for? Yeah, I'm for Vegas.
Oh yeah, that's right. You and your mom are. Yeah,
you're gonna party hard. You do? You actually do need
a prep because.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
You like a program with my mum where we're just
slowly drinking each weekend building up my tolerance.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
So that you don't absolutely hit the deck at yah.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Love that because wait, I just want to say, guys,
have actually been like mid quarter life crisis right now? Grace.
I don't know if you've had yours yet?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Absolutely in the think of it right now?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Oh yeah, talk to me about it. Come on, let's
spent out on the podcast about it.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Well, id your whole episode on that?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Do it?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
My quarter life crisis though, is like like am I
meant to be overseas partying and like living my life
and just doing crazy shit? Or like why am I?
Why did I meet such a good guy who's bought
an apartment at twenty two? And why is my life
doing what it's meant to be doing? And everything's working
for me and I'm working hard for it, and I'm like,
(19:34):
am I meant to be overseas? Being free traveling. And
then now that we've had this conversation, it brings this
whole mess in my mind back to a message, and
it's like, figure out your priorities before you move overseas,
because I actually didn't like it once i'd moved, Like
to anyone else, it'd be like I know, but like
to anyone else, it's like, oh, dream living on an
(19:56):
island in Malaysia, And to me it was like, oh,
this was a horrible So, Maley, what do you think
about moving overseas?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
For me, I had to grow up so quick, like
at eighteen, I had to like I came over to
it all the way across to the other side of
the world on my own and had to like grow
up really really fast. So it matured me really really quick.
But I think you just get life lessons and experiences
and meet different people and learn different like a different culture,
(20:27):
and you just figure stuff out whilst you're young. I think,
I think the best time to do it is when
you're young, till you are young. Now. I get that,
but you've also kind of established like a baseline at home,
you know, like a foundation issue. It's yeah, you can't
you've got exactly. That's what I've got to do it before. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, that's why I'm mid crisis now, and like I
should have done it earlier. But forty years old, they
picked up and they ran overseas. I say to Tom,
let's just go rent a van in Europe and run
away for three months.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah you have.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I love that. My mom did that too, she went
to Jamaica and all that.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Did. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yeah, so I think definitely, if you're going to do it,
I'm I'm for do it. I'm all for go and
do it. Do it now while you can, while you're young.
We'll do it whenever. But I think when you're young
is the best before you get into like like you said,
like a job that's consistent till now you're in you
don't want to leave obviously, yeah, you know, without economy.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Not even just a job, just like your whole life
is set out like now it's like, oh, I consider
my partner, consider work. It's just yeah, it's a pain,
they ask. But anyway, Yeah, I think that's so true.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Like it's never too late, of course, but it's just
easier when you're younger because you don't have as many
life anchors like that's the thing. If you have no
like consistency or like yeah, anchors in your life, then
it means you can literally do anything, go anywhere, be anyone, but.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You're signed to move to grace.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Well do it, grace to it.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Get on over here with me, Molly, I'll see saint.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll catch your sound. I'll pick you

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Okay, So this is like the how people in Paris
are protesting that they don't want the Olympics in the
French Canal. So they're pulling in it so that they
stop putting chemicals in it, because that's going to be
the Olympic swimming pool.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Wait, what the canal is going to be the Olympic
swiming pool.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, the French Riviera. Think, yes, it's going to be.
It is it's one of the Olympics right now.

It's true.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
It's all over my t seems like you're capping.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
There's no way that's true. The Olympic swimming pool is
going to be outside, Tilly.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Yes, no, it's going to be in the river.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Tilly. I can't believe this. This can't be right.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
There's no way it's true. Tilly. I will give you.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Money. Yeah, I'll take it one.

Something natural and.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Mali, are you hot or not?
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I'm not. I think it's dope if they can do.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
It, So yeah, I definitely for shitting in Paris.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Why do you want people to pooh?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Because they're just ruining natural habitat, like they shouldn't be
putting so many chemicals in it.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
So true, Yeah, I do get that, But you know what,
I also think that some of these some of these
places should have some chemicals in it. Like you know,
I think some of these rivers and stuff are so
brown and murky and disgusting. It's like, come on, let's
make them look nice. Let's just pretty this place up
a little bit, as long as it doesn't kill any animals,
which it probably would.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
So maybe who's doing the poohing?
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah? And when Tilly? Now Tilly at this.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Point, No, Tilly can't do that. Tilly can't do till
you struggle exactly, can't participate in this piece of protest
right next one crying face down to not ruin your makeup?
Speaker 2 (25:42):
Hot, So if you, if you guys, can.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
You give me an example, Tilly? She cries like this,

the impression that this submarine would be able to withstand
the pressure that they are going down to do you

we ready?
Speaker 1 (28:36):
I'm ready.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I just thought this was quite funny personally. Should I do?
I might do one related to Asia? Since we're okay,
this is just everyone put your visualization eyes on. This
is This is really how it felt living in Malaysia.
It's the train wreck. The craziest shite I ever saw
in Vietnam was within my first few weeks of living here.
(28:59):
I was riding my bicycle and notice up ahead everyone
was swerving into the oncoming lane to avoid an invisible object.
Trusting that there was a good reason for this, I
went with the crowd. That was smart. The obstacle everyone
was avoiding an old man standing at the curb facing
the road holding a naked toddler above his head like similar,
(29:22):
while the little shit pissed a perfect arc right into
the middle lane of cars.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
So he was holding this baby like like the lion king.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Like the lion king, and he was just pissing a
little onto all the cars. And I think this describes
Asia perfectly. And then he goes and that's how you
get security guards who whip it out and piss on
the wall a few meters away from the mall.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Wa'.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That's just saying, that's how we're raising a generation of
blokes that just pulled.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
That. They can just literally stop traffic with the peace
that is car Crush actually love it.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Yeah, that is so dangerous. And to hold a little
baby up to how dangerous is that? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Why why are they holding the baby up? Why don't
you just let him trying.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
To make a point, you know, trying to change things
up in this world. I I I rate it, but
that's just too dangerous to hold a little kid up
like that.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
I know, it's iconic, it's chaotic.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
There we've both had some pretty pretty interesting experiences. Yeah,
you're wrapping up, you're wrapping your charger up. Guys. Thank
you as always for listening. Let's let's yeah, let's just
wrap this whole conversation. It's spin tragic. Would you want
to move overseas? That's the Paul answer that question. We

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Okay? So?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I gave my dementia grandma caffeine. So do you know
my cousin Jakaiah. We talked about her before the one
who I weaed on out.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Of the tree.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yes, are you asking me or.
Speaker 2 (01:00):

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Not just the universe?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You guys know.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
You're asking every one in the headphones? Okay?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Okay. So, so me and Jakai went out for breakfast
with my grandma who's got dementia, and basically when we
were out at breakfast, this woman's never had caffeine in
her entire life or gluten in her entire life, because
(01:28):
it's an both inflammatories and honestly, like we just took
the family credit card, took it to the bench for coffee.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Can I hold you there? Who on this earth has
a family credit card outside of if you.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Have a dementia grandma, that's what happens.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
But why do you so your grandmother, I'm so sorry
to hear has dementia and then everyone just gets a
family credit card.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
No, we just bring her.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I think it's her card on her behalf that yea,
yeah okayeke, were just going down to queen for the day.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
I wish. Yeah. Anyway, this woman's like my grandma, started
acting crazy. She was jumping up and down and running around.
She's so old, talking German, which didn't know she could
speak German. It was so weird. Then she went up
to this guy with a puppy and said you should
marry my granddaughters. Yes please, good looking dog anyway, and
(02:33):
then she's just running around. Yeah, She's like, this is
the most amazing coffee I've ever had. This is the
most incredible coffee I've ever had. And me and Kia
are like, what is going on? Will so embarrassed that
we had to put her in the car. So as
we were putting her in the car, this other lady says, moly,
don't say all, because then I'm getting in trouble for
my parents. That it sounds like a mean story.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
You feel, you know what, I mean to have some fun.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Coffee shopping.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
With dog.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
And she's so embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
She's like, get in, get in the car, you know
what I mean, give me the credit card, credit card
in the car, you know.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Okay. Anyway, so like, Bets, please get in the car. Now,
we're going to go shopping. So and this other lady
comes over to Bets and goes, you look like Princess Diana.
Here's an umbrella. I'm going to help you get in
the car so you don't get wet, and was out, yeah,
pouring and like main car were like, okay, come on,

he just had a baby, like literally a week and
a half.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, congratulations, it was a boy.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It was a boy, really cute named George, and he's
really really cute George. Wait, why is that devastating?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Because I want a girl for my first right? What
do you want first?
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I want a girl.
Speaker 2 (05:52):

Speaker 1 (08:51):
Bye bye, Bets. Wow, Bets, I cannot believe what I
just heard, Bets Tilly. Oh god, guys, guys, you're in
for it with this podcast. I'll tell you that much.
You don't know what you're going to get, Like you
listening don't know what you're going to get, but Grace
(09:11):
and I don't know what we're going to get. That
was definitely I mean, everything's off the script here, but
that was completely off the script.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
That was a train.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Well, Bets, thank you for that. There you go. There's
the breakdown. We're talking about living abroad and whether that's
something that everyone should try at least once, which is
actually quite fitting because actually maybe it has been a
little crack for me lately. I just I just moved
apartments guys. One yeah, guys, I thought I completely underestimated
how hard it is to move apartments and let me
(09:49):
and let me get you, Like, tell you guys that
this wasn't us moving actual apartment blocks, Like we're in
the same apartment complex. We just moved up three levels.
But I underestimated the whole process. Didn't have any boxes
or anything ready. You know. I just thought, I'll do
a couple of trips. It'll take me half a day,
we'll get it all in there. The hardest parts will
(10:09):
be the couch in the bed, but whatever, Right, this
took me the whole damn day, Like the whole day.
My back was broken. It was the worst thing ever. Yeah,
it was just absolutely dreadful and I never want to
do it again. But it did have me thinking about
like all of the times that I did live in
different parts of the world, well America, right, like my
(10:29):
first move all the way to college at eighteen years old,
you know what I mean? Until you said, yeah, you
just said before you've lived in Malaysia, so you obviously
get it as well. But like, talk to me about
where you've been and your experiences on living abroad because
you moved pretty early, right till.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah, in twenty eleven, we moved to Malaysia.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
And how old were you?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
I was ten, right, did for dad's work.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Yeah, right, he's.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
In school, so he just went over. So it's an incentive.
You live abroad, they pay for your housing, they pay
your car whatever, and they get teachers.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
So it works.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Is it a nice place that you had?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Awful?
Speaker 1 (11:06):
It was just a hard Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I was so angry with.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
All your friends and stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It's not even like you're moving to America where there's
like cafeterias and everything. Like it was a massive culture shock.
I moved to Malaysia.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Wild.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
That's wild, Like everything is completely different. For example, you
go to swim in the ocean and you're literally stung
by giant jellyfish. Like we all went swimming first day.
It's disgusting. It's so dirty you can't even swim. You
have to swim in pools.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, you're so ruddy. And when you're at school, it's
like wild a lot. It's so many different cultures. People
speak a million different languages, and like the curriculum is
so different. I remember this is I don't know if
I'm allowed to say this. I remember Zeke came home
from school one day and you get changed in like
(11:57):
the pe rooms because it's a private school. Also, even
in primary school, if you're doing pea, you'll get changed.
You don't just wear your normal uniform.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
So you went to a nice school, like a nice
primary school.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Yeah. Correct. And Zeke came home after pee and he
was like, all the Asian kids told me, my penis
is too big.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Oh my god, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
See and he was getting bullied for it. Oh because
all of them.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh, this is what I mean.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Just weed different completely.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
So like the food, everything is so cheap. Twenty cents
for a cornado, twenty cents for a can of drink.
When you go down to the little restaurants, they serve
food in plastic bag, so you'd go and pay a
dollar and you'd get a bag of nan bread and
you'd get a bag of dull and you'd just eat
your food like it was so much more chill. But
(13:01):
like that stuff amazing. But other things like there's monkeys everywhere,
there's wild dogs everywhere. The first day we went to school,
we thought, oh, we'll just do a lovely walk through
the rainforest. Literally get attacked by monkeys.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Well that's what scares me. Over there, the monkey's jumping
on me and getting in my hair.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I'm just trying to picture being like a ten year
old who's living in Australia and then one day you're
living in Malaysia. Yeah, on holiday there.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
I was just gonna say, on that Grace, how long, Well,
how long did you or did your dad plan on
being there? How long did you guys live there? Like
what was the plan? Was he like, oh, We're just
going to be here for the next three years or
like what did that? What was that?
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Like?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
I think the plan was to stay there semi long term,
like maybe like a few years, but we only stayed
a year. We weren't very happy there, well because you
guys were, Yeah, we hated it. Dad also has had
a stroke in the past and because of the heat,
his heart was playing up bad. So that was lucky
because we got to go home.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Oh my god. Yeah, I mean that's a that's a
that's an optimistic way to look at it. Yeah. Yeah,
so you guys went home because of that as well.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah, if I holidayed there, I'd froth it. Incredible fruit food,
incredible culture, and go to an island that you can
actually swim at that's not polluted.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
But yeah, the biggest move you've ever done.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Oh yeah, the only other thing. I grew up on
a farm and then I moved to the city. Yeah,
like but nothing overseas, but Marley, tell me about Americana.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
So you moved for college.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
I moved for college Greece. I moved when I was eighteen,
and I went over because after high school, like the
next the next step for unless you go professional for
basketball is going to college. So that was always a
huge thing but really hard thing for like Australians to do.
But I got a scholarship to go to Pepperdine in Malibu.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Ah, that's like an iconic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
That's where Zoey one O one was filmed.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Can you tell me how you felt when you got
accepted for that? Did you do one of those college
acceptance videos that they post, Well, that wasn't the thing
back then.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
No.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I went for a lot of back and forth, like
talking with the coaches, a lot of game like game
film sent to them, and then they took me out
on a visit. So they flew me out for two
three days. I worked out with the guys and then
they offered in a scholarship on the last day.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Yeah, yeah, they iratulation Sally, that's so cool. So what
you were eighteen or something?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah, No, I was probably eighteen by then. I think
I was driving. Yeah, so I was just just turned eighteen. Yeah,
and then moved over when I was eighteen.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Sorry, can you quickly tell them how much it costs
a year there that you told me?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, scholarships the memory, I don't know if it was
sixty thousand a semester or sixty thousand a year, but
it could have been. It could have been. Yeah, this
is like and this school, guys, this school is like
the richest of the rich go to this school, like
from whoa, from all parts of the world. These are
like kids that I got to campus and talk about
(15:56):
a culture shock, like going to California as in a
huge culture shock for us from Australia, Like it's beechy
palm trees, pretty chill vibe, you know what I mean,
and cool people. But it was a culture shock going
to this school because me coming from you know, just
Australia and Melbourne and how I live to then getting
to campus and there's eighteen year olds, nineteen year olds
driving around in Ferraris and Lamborghinis and Mercedes and you
(16:20):
name it like these kids. Yeah, and people were like
right away they would like let us. Me and my
buddy that was on the team. We'd ask to like
borrow someone's car and they'd be like yeah, they were
like really cool about it. And it's like a range
Rover or something like that. They're like, yeah, whatever, you
can have the keys, like just go just bring about it.
That's like. And we'd have it for days sometimes and
just park it somewhere else on camp. It was really bizarre.
(16:42):
But yeah, moving to America was Yeah, it was crazy.
It was like a huge, huge deal, especially because I'm
like so family orientated, so that was hard. But outside
of that, I was so focused on basketball and studies,
Like you don't really have time to miss home, you know,
So it was like an easy transition for me.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Would you have wanted to move to the States if
it weren't for basketball, Like, do you reckon? You'd want
to move somewhere that sees for the sake of it?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
No, just to do definitely not. Nah. If it wasn't
for basketball, I probably wouldn't have done it, which is crazy. Yeah,
I probably wouldn't have, even like I might have if
it maybe came up in university like an exchange program.
But my in my head and like from fifteen years old,
it was never like go to UNI. At home, it
was always I'm going to oh really like that was always.
(17:32):
That was always what.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I was doing.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Yeah, I didn't I didn't even process what my life
would have looked like in any other capacity, you know
what I mean. So I don't think I would have,
which is actually a really interesting question. Grace, Like I
and that's crazy. Your wife. Yeah, literally, I met my
literal wife. That would have been the biggest move because
I was eighteen atulations. Yeah, I was a kid, you know,
away from my mum and dad for the first time
(17:55):
in my march. Yeah, it was kind of kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Guys. We actually I'm gonna may, I think let's just
do a full college episode. I just want to be
part of the college experience. For let's sit here with
alcohol and drink from red cups. Let's do that college experience.
By the way, I had a drink of alcohol on
the weekend.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
How'd that go?
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It was fantastic?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
What was it?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Guys? I'm like, basically like two years no drinking and.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
You're back on now.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
I'm back on because I have to prepare myself for
your wedding.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Oh is that what you're prepping for? Yeah, I'm for Vegas.
Oh yeah, that's right. You and your mom are. Yeah,
you're gonna party hard. You do? You actually do need
a prep because.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
You like a program with my mum where we're just
slowly drinking each weekend building up my tolerance.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
So that you don't absolutely hit the deck at yah.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Love that because wait, I just want to say, guys,
have actually been like mid quarter life crisis right now? Grace.
I don't know if you've had yours yet?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Absolutely in the think of it right now?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Oh yeah, talk to me about it. Come on, let's
spent out on the podcast about it.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Well, id your whole episode on that?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Do it?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
My quarter life crisis though, is like like am I
meant to be overseas partying and like living my life
and just doing crazy shit? Or like why am I?
Why did I meet such a good guy who's bought
an apartment at twenty two? And why is my life
doing what it's meant to be doing? And everything's working
for me and I'm working hard for it, and I'm like,
(19:34):
am I meant to be overseas? Being free traveling. And
then now that we've had this conversation, it brings this
whole mess in my mind back to a message, and
it's like, figure out your priorities before you move overseas,
because I actually didn't like it once i'd moved, Like
to anyone else, it'd be like I know, but like
to anyone else, it's like, oh, dream living on an
(19:56):
island in Malaysia, And to me it was like, oh,
this was a horrible So, Maley, what do you think
about moving overseas?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
For me, I had to grow up so quick, like
at eighteen, I had to like I came over to
it all the way across to the other side of
the world on my own and had to like grow
up really really fast. So it matured me really really quick.
But I think you just get life lessons and experiences
and meet different people and learn different like a different culture,
(20:27):
and you just figure stuff out whilst you're young. I think,
I think the best time to do it is when
you're young, till you are young. Now. I get that,
but you've also kind of established like a baseline at home,
you know, like a foundation issue. It's yeah, you can't
you've got exactly. That's what I've got to do it before. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, that's why I'm mid crisis now, and like I
should have done it earlier. But forty years old, they
picked up and they ran overseas. I say to Tom,
let's just go rent a van in Europe and run
away for three months.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah you have.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I love that. My mom did that too, she went
to Jamaica and all that.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Did. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yeah, so I think definitely, if you're going to do it,
I'm I'm for do it. I'm all for go and
do it. Do it now while you can, while you're young.
We'll do it whenever. But I think when you're young
is the best before you get into like like you said,
like a job that's consistent till now you're in you
don't want to leave obviously, yeah, you know, without economy.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Not even just a job, just like your whole life
is set out like now it's like, oh, I consider
my partner, consider work. It's just yeah, it's a pain,
they ask. But anyway, Yeah, I think that's so true.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Like it's never too late, of course, but it's just
easier when you're younger because you don't have as many
life anchors like that's the thing. If you have no
like consistency or like yeah, anchors in your life, then
it means you can literally do anything, go anywhere, be anyone, but.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You're signed to move to grace.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Well do it, grace to it.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Get on over here with me, Molly, I'll see saint.

what you've inspired me.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
And you know what, home is always going to be there.
Home is always going to.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
That's so true. That's so true.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And if home is where the heart is, then you're screwed.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Yeah, because then you're literally just now you're just going
through that. Yeah, you're going through that quarter life crisis
for your whole life at that.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Point, you know, it means exactly, so true, so true.
You know what, We'll do a whole episode on quarter
life crisis. I think a mid life crisis. College. Yeah,
we've got a lot.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
We go, all right, let's do a brain break, shall we?
Speaker 3 (22:37):
What's a brain breareak?
Speaker 1 (22:38):
What is it? What is a what is a brain break.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Okay, so it's a brain massage. They take your brain
out and they give it a massage and put it
back in your head.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
So sounds like.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Wow, I was literally say this is only one degree more.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Story.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Yeah okay.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
So a brain break is basically like a little rest
for your mind to get off the topic before you
continue learning or class or something. It's what we use
in primary school.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I love this.
Speaker 2 (23:09):

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Okay. The first one is shitting in Paris question mark.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Okay, So this is like the how people in Paris
are protesting that they don't want the Olympics in the
French Canal. So they're pulling in it so that they
stop putting chemicals in it, because that's going to be
the Olympic swimming pool.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Wait, what the canal is going to be the Olympic
swiming pool.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, the French Riviera. Think, yes, it's going to be.
It is it's one of the Olympics right now.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
It's true.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
It's all over my t seems like you're capping.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
There's no way that's true. The Olympic swimming pool is
going to be outside, Tilly.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Yes, no, it's going to be in the river.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Tilly. I can't believe this. This can't be right.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
There's no way it's true. Tilly. I will give you.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Money. Yeah, I'll take it one.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Hundred dollars if this is true. Hang on, don't Grace,
don't wait.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Wait, so thank you.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
During the Olympics, Paris plans for athletes to compete in
the Seine for marathon, swimming and triathlon events, but one
point two billion plan to turn Paris's river into a
swimming pool. I think you guys, Oh my god, I
think she's right.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
So hold on. Note Okay, I'm not pulling it or not.
I'm I'm hot. I'm saying hot. What do you want?
Something natural and.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Mali, are you hot or not?
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I'm not. I think it's dope if they can do.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
It, So yeah, I definitely for shitting in Paris.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Why do you want people to pooh?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Because they're just ruining natural habitat, like they shouldn't be
putting so many chemicals in it.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
So true, Yeah, I do get that, But you know what,
I also think that some of these some of these
places should have some chemicals in it. Like you know,
I think some of these rivers and stuff are so
brown and murky and disgusting. It's like, come on, let's
make them look nice. Let's just pretty this place up
a little bit, as long as it doesn't kill any animals,
which it probably would.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
So maybe who's doing the poohing?
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Yeah? And when Tilly? Now Tilly at this.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Point, No, Tilly can't do that. Tilly can't do till
you struggle exactly, can't participate in this piece of protest
right next one crying face down to not ruin your makeup?
Speaker 2 (25:42):
Hot, So if you, if you guys, can.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
You give me an example, Tilly? She cries like this,
that's hilarious.

that deep? It's just dumb to me. I can't comprehend it. Anyway.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (26:34):

the impression that this submarine would be able to withstand
the pressure that they are going down to do you
know what I mean? And if you had enough money
to do so, and you are older, you know, and

Speaker 2 (28:37):
I just thought this was quite funny personally. Should I do?
I might do one related to Asia? Since we're okay,
this is just everyone put your visualization eyes on. This
is This is really how it felt living in Malaysia.
It's the train wreck. The craziest shite I ever saw
in Vietnam was within my first few weeks of living here.
(28:59):
I was riding my bicycle and notice up ahead everyone
was swerving into the oncoming lane to avoid an invisible object.
Trusting that there was a good reason for this, I
went with the crowd. That was smart. The obstacle everyone
was avoiding an old man standing at the curb facing
the road holding a naked toddler above his head like similar,
(29:22):
while the little shit pissed a perfect arc right into
the middle lane of cars.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
So he was holding this baby like like the lion king.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Like the lion king, and he was just pissing a
little onto all the cars. And I think this describes
Asia perfectly. And then he goes and that's how you
get security guards who whip it out and piss on
the wall a few meters away from the mall.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Wa'.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That's just saying, that's how we're raising a generation of
blokes that just pulled.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
That. They can just literally stop traffic with the peace
that is car Crush actually love it.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Yeah, that is so dangerous. And to hold a little
baby up to how dangerous is that? Why?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Why why are they holding the baby up? Why don't
you just let him trying.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
To make a point, you know, trying to change things
up in this world. I I I rate it, but
that's just too dangerous to hold a little kid up
like that.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
I know, it's iconic, it's chaotic.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
There we've both had some pretty pretty interesting experiences. Yeah,
