My mom was trying to sneak her underage friend in
the club, Karen. My dad was the security guard not
letting her do that. So their first interaction was my
mum calling him some things that I can't really say
on air.

her and drove her home.

last one, Ali from Civic, did you find love in
a club?

Speaker 4 (07:07):
I did. I went on a top deck tour and
our final stop after the tour finished was Croatia. Went
on a bar crawl for twenty bar crawls over twenty
euros and he was at one of the stops as
a bar manager. He saw me coming out of the

(07:29):
boys bathroom because the girl's line.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
Was so quick to just stop into the boys one yes.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Coach helped me coming out and then that was as
tg as it kind of gets.

Speaker 6 (07:44):
But now would be married, fir.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
Okay, I'm glad because it sounds like eight years. Okay,
you kind of did make love with a bar manager
and a club in Croatia. So did he?

Speaker 5 (08:00):
Did he have to move from Croatia back to Australia
when you finished your top tick tour?

Speaker 6 (08:05):
He did.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
We got married within a year and a half and
he's now a citizen, been a citizen for a couple
of years.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Oh my god. Wow, And that is what making love
and the club gets here.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Ah, you're just falling in love the Croatian bar manager. Yeah,
and you're bringing him home. You're like, look, what I
found on the top deck tour. Oh what a story, Ali,
you and whoever you want to take now I'm assuming
your husband you've when he's twenty dollars actually spend at
the Flight Drone Skyshine night markets, which run from the

(08:38):
twenty fourth to the twenty sixth, free for all ages.
Who well, it's done. Yeah, it's like a top deck
tour all over again. Let's go to the Netherlands. Have
you ever been? What'd you do there? Where's love that one?

(09:00):
Because Wedsesdas it's a trap.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
I saw the site.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Did you do you remember any of it? That's fine,
most legal to see the high sights there. It's fine.
But there is something happening in the Netherlands. And it
started on Jan twenty.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Oh yesterday, okay, And apparently.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Jan twenty is called Blue Monday in the Netherlands. It's
the most depressing day of the year. Now we would
have our own version of blue Monday, and it would
be somewhere around like when the cold really like.

Speaker 5 (09:39):
Gets you, well, May or June, I'd say it'd be
end of May. End of May for me, last Monday
of May is blue Monday.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Okay, great, we've called it.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
That's official.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
There's something that there are asking people to do for
thirty days, and it's something that I just as a
long term friend of mine.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Still yeah, yeah, jury's always out.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
I'll check, keep checking. There's something that I just want
to ask if you think I could do this?

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Okay, So for thirty days.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
People in the Netherlands have been asked to do something.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
We started this. Are you going to do it?

Speaker 5 (10:23):
Do?

Speaker 3 (10:23):
I check in with you?

Speaker 2 (10:24):
And I would have failed At four thirty two this
morning when I got it.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
Oh okay, Oh you're not allowed to win for thirty days.
You could never.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
You can.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
The campaign is to not complain for thirty days.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
Oh no, no, no.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
It's a positivity campaign and they did it in Belgium
some years ago and they bring it to the Netherlands
UM and the World champions World Championships and finding something wrong.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
You can't even get the story.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
I was so foreign to you and what is happening?
So basically she says everyone has to stop grumbling nah,
and they have to stop and think why am I
grumbling right now? Is it necessary?

Speaker 5 (11:15):
See you would start the grumbling and then you would go, okay,
stop is this necessary, and you would always find a
way that it was necessary to grumble. You love, it's
your favorite pastime.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
It's true. I was born grumpy old man, and then
they named me Neil, and now it makes sense. It
was funny the other day I was having a conniption.
I think it was the day that we got back
from holidays and everything was broken again, and I was
mad about the econ, which is good because it gets
fixed when I get mad. And then Where's came in

(11:52):
and his girlfriend had said to him, what were the exact.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Words, Geez, will come courd really.

Speaker 5 (12:00):
Mad and I think you got lumped in, yeah, which
is not fair actually, because I don't complain the.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Way you do anyway. So thirty days, guys, you want
to start now? No, I could do it. I promise
you're in the presence of one right now. Okay, are
you ready?

Speaker 3 (12:19):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (12:20):
What did you call me? Okay?

Speaker 3 (12:23):
I thought you said, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
I'm talking about a favorite child.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Oh I think I have the favorite child?

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Are you the favorite? By default?

Speaker 4 (12:37):
Right?

Speaker 1 (12:39):
No?

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:42):
The favorite question?

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Good question in my think about default?

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah, yeah, give it back. There's an author Alexander Jensen, PhD,
Associate Professor Professor at Brigham Young University, and has explained
that for decades, research have known that there is different
treatment for different children because parents, according to research, lie

(13:10):
and they say, oh, I couldn't possibly have a favorite.
You're all my favorite. I love you all equally. And
they said, that's true. You might love them all equally,
but you don't like them all, No, you don't. And
it's funny too, because apparently the researchers have said that
mothers would tend to favor daughters and fathers would tend

(13:30):
to favor sons. However, the study found that both mothers
and fathers were more likely to favor daughters.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
I reckon, my sister in law's the favorite out of
two boys and a girl. Right, yeah, okay, so it
checks out.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Apparently, favoritism for one of the child is often based
on the birth order, gender, and temperament. Also personality traits, okay,
such as extra if you're an extrovert, agreeableness, openness, concian
sciousness now that word today, and how neurotic you are?

Speaker 3 (14:06):
Baby? Where's this here? You have got a sister, yes,
I do, just the two of you.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah, it's just the two of us.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
And who's the favorite the dog? Oh yep. Actually, growing up,
my mum would have said the same thing.

Speaker 6 (14:20):
Try the whole.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
I like you both, she says, she dislikes us. Yes, God,
I like Karen. I've never met her and I want to.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
I think Karen and I have great time. I reckon
most of your same mean stuff about you. I reckon Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I think I think. Look, I think it's a battle
for me because I am the most dependent on child.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
It doesn't necessarily mean you're the favorite, though, because you
do have a sister.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
That's true. And I think my sister is like she's
always vying for the title, which is funny because another
of us want it.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
You don't want to.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Too much. I'm the mediator, right, Yeah, exactly. You're always like,
come on, guys, why can't we just love each other?
And they're all just like I hate you.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, and I'm in the middle, like crying. You and
I both brought divorce rate stories today.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
And mine was about penguins, yeah, and yours was about
I'm assuming humans human. Ah, Okay, we're trying to go on.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
With We're going with humans.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Weird choice de penguins.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
They get married, do that only they mate it for life.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
The world turns out and so much anymore.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Oh wow, divorce made it to the penguin world.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Well.

Speaker 5 (15:38):
Australian divorce rates seem to be spiking as the first
month of twenty twenty five comes to an end.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Just cause a subtle way of warning her husband, it's
not me.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
It's the data.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
You're going to add to that data.

Speaker 5 (15:57):
There's been a forty spike in separation in inquiries on
the Separation Guide, which is an Australian divorce technology platform.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
It's good. It is good.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
I guess that over December twenty twenty four and January
twenty twenty five is when the spike happened, and it's
compared to the same period of last year. On December
twenty nine, there was an eighty eight percent increase in
onboarding inquiries compared to the daily average for December, and

(16:31):
then January has already recorded a thirty nine percent increase.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Of the month's daily average.

Speaker 5 (16:39):
I wonder if it's just that post Christmas New Year
period where you've had to be with your in laws
a lot, and your kids and your kids and your
partner normally you have a bit of break from each other.
You have eight hours a day at work, or maybe
you're at home and there at work.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
And then they come home and you're like, oh, yeah,
it's nice to see I like you.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
I fully believe that you have to be able to
miss the you have to miss.

Speaker 5 (17:05):
Them because you spend too much time together over Christmas
New Year and you're on boarding onto the separation website.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Yeah, you're just like, should I be with this?

Speaker 4 (17:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (17:15):
Is this who you're going to turn into in twenty years?

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Oh yeah, looking at the crystal ball.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Yeah, because you're surrounded by family and friends, and maybe
you're seeing people and they interact nicer with each other,
but it could just be a show you guys.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
That's true. I it's funny when you see like an
older couple, like let's say, in their seventies, and it
can go on a two ways. It's like they're so
sweet and you're like, oh my god, you guys really
love each other. And then you've got the other way,
whether you're like they love each other, but they're just
done with each other.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's like a lot of eye rolling. There's a lot
of like shut up, Yeah, I think that'll be me.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
My pop used to tell my nan to get under
the house to do what, as if she was some
sort of dog. I guess, yeah, that's me, and then
I can't say what she said in reply. But something
was yelled from the kitchen and it wasn't for radio
a broadcast
