Woody podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Boomers. They're all on Facebook in the same way that
Nerd Beaches and Coffee Club have sort of accept the
responsibility of housing the boomers. In reality, I feel like
Mark Zuckerberg has done the same thing online. He's just
it's a sacrificial lamb of a platform. Now it's the
online God's waiting room.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Facebook.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
They're all there, and.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
I think they're cool because they're on the Facebook now.
They're like, I'm across that arm.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
The memes, their posts and it leads to a lot
of great blunders, which is just awesome. I'd love to
hear those calls. Thirty one and six y five Federal
MP Andrew g could call if he wanted to. So
this is yesterday, I think, or earlier today. So he
(00:54):
does a post on his official Andrew GMP bluetick nice page.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
He's in touch, He's in touch with the Youth's posted
on social media.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He says this. He says, it's day one and the
dirty tactics have already started. This afternoon, a constituent contacted
my office who told us that she'd been cold called
by a person who identified himself as someone from the
National Party and then they told Clayton lies about who
I was. Ya yah yah does this big post. Yeah,
(01:24):
he says, this constituent is seventy nine years old. She's
very upset about this first comment underneath it, and clearly
he doesn't. They forget I mean, this is where the
blunders begin. They just forget that they leave a trail.
So he's clearly written this post. And the next thing
he's done is he's gone, I know what I'll do
(01:45):
is I'll comment on my post as somebody else.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Oh yeah great right, yeah, yeah, perfect crime, the perfect crime.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, he writes, thank you, and then tags Andrew GMP.
I am Mutity area and I have also received multiple
texts from the nationals. I've seen nasty ads from the
paper till mob too. It has helped me to see
who the good guy really is.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And can I just say you're very attractive as well.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And he's totally totally forgotten to change accounts, so he's
just commented under his own post as himself and then
tagged himself that is in his own post, So everyone knows.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Everyone knows now, like ask, you've made the faux pa, right,
but how often do you do this?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Like how often have you successfully been doing all the time.
He's doing it all the Q nice things about yourself
through an.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I love that final line. It has helped me to
see who the good guy really is. It's awesome. So
look Facebook prop blunders. They're a beautiful thing. I'm sure
everyone's got a story here, so please they're anyone in
six five A very good friend of mine. He's dad,
and I think this will be one that we get
a lot on these calls. Woulds. His dad's status one
(03:06):
day was just natural breasts. Oh no, it's not even
the right website. He was overseas as well or something.
He's just gone to search natural breasts made it his
Facebook status. His wife couldn't get onto him, so she
(03:26):
just had to comment underneath it, Kevin, this is not
Google mark so I'm sure. I'm sure they're all out there.
Big shout out to my mate's statu if he's listening.
That was very good. Ken just entertained for a long
time time. Difference meant it was online for a good
fifteen hours. Captain poop Pan's a EP just reminded me
(03:46):
about that time that the very famous Australian professor Peter
Doherty posted on his Twitter he's opening hours. That's good
to his.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Did it say what time? What time? Did he try
and check Dan movie?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I just wanted to know what the scope was. It
was a Monday morning as well.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Monday morning, Yeah, Monday morning.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
He is too good. And I know you've got a
story about your dad as well.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Was more a fine story about dad. Let's go to
Karen first. Karen, this was your mom who had a
blunder on Facebook.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Yeah, yeah, Hi guys.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
My mom does a lot of traveling and she's quite
eldoly and insists on posting all about her holiday while
she's overseas. And one particular time, she was in London
with her current partner and his daughter, and she posted
about them being somewhere and included her his brother, who
had passed away. Takes him in the posters being with
them in London. She didn't know, and he hadn't passed
(04:47):
very recently, so it was a bit shocking. And then
I didn't know how to edit it or delete it,
so just put in the comments. Well, I'm sure he
wished he was here.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh, recovery, recovery. Hey, I'm going to jump in here
because dad did a very very similar line, super related.
So effectively, my dad is messaging his brother, so my uncle,
and effectively they're talking about Greg. Yeah, they're talking about
a friend of theirs who's not in a good way.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
He's going through some some health stuff. Now, they thought
they were private messaging, and so the conversation steers towards
and this is on both of their public walls. It
was back in the day when you walk, so they're
just chattingto each other publicly on one of the.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Which, by the way, was a wild thing, right, But
it went on that we used to have public chats,
and he.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Made decisions like do I want this chat public or private? Anyway,
they thought it was private. So then they start saying,
should we go and visit him? Would be the right
thing to do anyway. Dad's response was.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
No, I don't think so, and then he says the
guy's full name, which tags him. So he's tagged now
in the comment going and the comment is, I don't
think he's going to make it much longer. Don't see
the point this is on. So not only is it
the public warm, it's been tagged. Let's go to I'm
(06:07):
not sure if we'll get there in time. This was
your dad.
Speaker 7 (06:15):
Yeah, so my dad took a photo of my wedding
invitation which had all my details on it where it
was going to be at my mobile number, and posted
it on his Facebook to about four hundred friends and
said everyone is invited.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Such a deliberate then from him, he's one of an
open house wedding, I guess.
Speaker 7 (06:39):
So I called him straight away and I told him,
you need to delete this right now.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He was like, a wild deliberate move.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, it's not even a recklessly this is your dad.
We're talking Facebook booby blunders.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Hello, Hello, I'm.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
You. You wanna talk about your dad? Vic?
Speaker 8 (07:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Boys, First, what do you want to do?
Speaker 8 (07:09):
He moved back to England. About I just wore COVID.
He's seventy two and he's absolutely useless with Facebook type
of stuff him And one minute I just looked at
it and he's got Asian brides something, a picture of
three like well I think there were women Asian brides
underneath as used Facebook status and I couldn't get in
(07:30):
contact with him for about a week and then when
I did, he was like, oh, I must have been hacked.
So I must have been hacked Oh no, I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Know, Oh Jesus, yeah, yeah, embarrassing post a photo of
him with three three women.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
No, he wasn't on there. It was just like, you know,
Asian brides, and it was three women.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
He captioned it Asian brides.
Speaker 8 (07:56):
Yeah, that's what Jesus.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
I don't know what to ask that I.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Realize that it's public.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yes, that's what's going on. They think of the search
engine because for all intend purposes, it looks like a search.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
So he searched Asian brides.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Yeah, and then obviously commented saying, three Asian brides.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Let's go to shame to Sha. They shouldn't be that. Hi,
hello Sha, we're tooking Facebook.
Speaker 9 (08:27):
Yes, so I got another mom story. But my mum
ripped into my brother's girlfriend on thinking it was a
private family group chat. He was tagged in it as well.
So on her page, she's written the comment because she
doesn't know how to use Facebook. She's written the comment
thinking it was in the private group chat.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
What she said, what's the worst thing she said?
Speaker 9 (08:50):
I can't remember exactly what it was, but she was
ripping into her like she's this and this and she's
so and so.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
Yeah and you.
Speaker 9 (08:59):
Shouldn't be with her, and this and that and the
other improved type of situation, and yeah, she saw it
didn't go down very well.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So the other girl did say it, Yes, I know,
did she confront her.
Speaker 9 (09:14):
No, my brother rang and my hat to do, you know,
dummage control control. But yeah, so he was frantically trying
to ring my mom to get the post taken down,
but she didn't know how to do that.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So that's the issue as well.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Once they realized.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
What to do it. Yeah, it's out there. That's shocking. Yeah, yeah,
he's still saying she is.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Right at the end of the time, Christmas lunch for
you guys.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
All the best comedians doing all the festivals all over
the country, and one of the best is Luke McGregor
in the studio with us right now. Tickets to Luke's
show Okay Wow are available at comedy dot com. Todd
are you. I haven't actually read the show title.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yet, but yeah, passive aggressive. It's my ten year old son.
When I do something he doesn't like, like if I
have to go to the toilet and he just he's
following me in there because he wants to keep talking
about minecraft. Of course, and I close the door and
lock it so he can't follow me, and he goes, Okay,
well you've locked the door, so what is it.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
It's like disdain with surprise.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Yeah, yeah, like surprise. Yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
That's where you're at. Wow.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
And I just just cracked me up so much. Ended
up on the show that the artwork was my my
fourteen year old? Did it illustrated the Wow?
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Yeah, just using your kids to do all your work.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Child, Yeah, I mean I provide their food and housing,
but but yeah it's optional. They didn't have to do it.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
But lots changed as you did your last show eight
years since a full standard show.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I've had a haircut.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Yeah, it's really good you and your dad recently is
that rather a fresh one? Well?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Recently we've got so I've got two children, is the
ten year old in the fourteen, I've got two step kids,
and then I just had a baby.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Congrat four months. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
That means a lot. I really appreciate that. A text
on the day, Yeah, it's great. They're they're they're a
little cutie. They have just decided, after four months of
pretty smooth sailing, that sleeper is overrated. They're like I'm
not doing much from the day.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I don't need to have this smatch sleep sure.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And because they can't do anything yet, they're like, and
I'll need you to I'll need you to pick me up.
Kind of stuck here. That's been hard.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
But how does that chat.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Go with your partner when you know, noise middle of
the night and because well and I both have young
kids as well, yours been over too and a half.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
They're the same age.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Yeah, yeah, we sinked up, we thinked up.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeahs it's all content rights.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
That's a good bit. It's a two year story.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah yeah, run in time for ratings week.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
How does that check go in the middle of the
night when it's like, you know, one of you needs to.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Go we we at the moment have just both get up,
so Amy will feed them and then I'll change and
brip them. But it all depends, like if one of
us has to get up at like five the next day, yeah,
and the other one doesn't. But usually both of us
(13:05):
get up just because we wake up anyway. I mean,
if Amy's feeding the baby and I'm like, I go, okay,
I'm gonna go back to sleep, just feels weird.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So I just stay up, doesn't it It doesn't you
have this like you never feel it more of a
piece of shit in your life than when they're like
feeding and you're just like yeah, because and then when
you do fall asleep because that I mean, let's say
it happens.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
I've got sleep at mere, so I need a little
mask as well as I start snoring real bad. It's
one of the issues with being a virgin for so
long as you don't know what sleep issues you've got.
I'm courage ever, I'm listening to get out there and
stay safe.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
And then do a question. And the next morning, what
am I doing during the night?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
For me to go back to sleep, I have to
put my mask back on. So then it's a real
consciously like so I just stay up.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I'm casually you can't.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
I can't drift off because I had to put the
mask on and trying the machine on.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
So you hear that, yeah, say no.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Sorry, Like are you purposely trying to alienate your audience
like you've just said, have you having a great drive home?
Not everyone's striving.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, that's a good I appreciate that. Live feedback. Where
is this three six ygoes after eight years someone said
it said it.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, it's like I'm walking up.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I can't go out there to the people that are
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Anyone outside the studio, think through the grapes, through the ale.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
That's a fair shout. Actually it's a fair shout. Actually,
I haven't thought about that, and it's always has been.
I mean, it even says it on our bloody poster woods.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
For the drive home. And it's wrong.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Why I I only listen to it when I'm when
I'm driving because I thought, you know, lad, Otherwise, Yeah,
as the people the tram catches somewhere else really saying
we don't want you, isn't it should be Will and
more Will and Woody for earth Maximize, maximize your audience
(15:19):
for breathers.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah we're here, Hey, I want to talk. So Don's brother,
anybody that you avoid conflict at all costs except just then,
I guess, yeah, came at me.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It was well, it should have been Willing Woody Luke,
until the until the breakup, until the accident, excepte.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
I've never been attacked by you before. It felt good
for me.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I enjoyed it. Yeah, it was a bit of fun.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Are you trying to do it more. Are you trying
to attack more?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
No, I because I've got kids now. If something goes wrong,
they look to you to fix it. I don't know
if they don't get something, which I would normally just
let fly, and they're like, I really do want my
six nuggets?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Oh yes, And I'm like, yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Fair enough, and I'm going to go back and drive
back to McDonald's. You didn't give me the six nuggets.
I don't have the receipt.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
But so you just fold like a back of cards.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Normally I would just like that's fine.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Yeah, because said do you know this conversation the other
day about you got to teach them consequence, like if
you do that, and I say you can't do that,
and I say, this is what's going to happen if
you do that. You have to follow through on the
you know, I'm going to take that away or I'm
going to leave the room or whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Thing.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Otherwise you just you're a walkover and they take it.
They they just start taking advantage of it.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I think the kids' test boundaries, but like, whatever works now,
you have to do something that works when they're.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
An adult as well.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Seventeen and tall. So any punishment that revolves around you
being big actual control, yeah, it doesn't work, so it's good.
The downside, I guess of that is I have talked
to the kids and just said listen, and they'll be like,
I only did the dishction you told me to, and
I'm because I had to. And I'm like, well, to
(17:03):
be fully transparent. If you had said I'm not going
to unpack the dishwash, actually don't have a backup plan
other than feel sad. So I'm very grateful that you choose.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
To like emotional black, I would be very sad.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
My dad used to smack me, which is old school,
you know, but it was that thing was once I
got older, nothing he did work. Yeah, like all the
past that all of your tools relied on me being
little there. So I've been really careful with the children
just to like, okay, this is my wife's six foot
one and my kids are going to be they're going
(17:42):
to tower over me. So and you know, just smacking
in general, don't do it. But it's it's I always
remember that moment where a dad and I flipped our relationship.
So I'm really careful with my kids to make sure
it's got to work later.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Sorry, can I ask you tell me if this is
two invasives? But like the moment when I guess it's radio, Like,
do you remember distinctly the moment when the relationship lipped? Yeah, Like,
was there like an actual moment where you were like, oh,
you're looking at me and you can't.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Dad was very He didn't like apologizing because I think
he had a certain amount of pride and like he
had to be, you know, right, and when he was wrong,
he didn't like to admit it.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Pretty classic male of that generation.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
And like his childhood was really hard, a lot harder
than mine. But you don't know that as a kid.
You just know what you're going through. It was I
think I was maybe fifteen or something. Dad asked me
to do something that I objected to. I honestly can't
remember what it was, and I just said no, and
then we just stared at each other and I said,
and you can hit me, and we just it was
(18:50):
just this weird moment where I'm I don't have I
don't have to listen to my dad anymore. It was weird,
it was, And I just remember that and think I
never had that with my kids. I never onto because
you in the end, you want them to do what
is quote unquote right because they want to do it
for you.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yeah, they love you and or they know it's right
because I know it's the right thing to rather have
to do that.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Like you want, because that's how you benef that's how
they that's how you're training for life rights. That you
want them to do the thing when you're not there
because it's good for them, whether it's brushing their teeth
or whereas you know, because my and I'm sorry, this
is very funny, but because my house.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Was hilarious, people are dying out the producer.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Sorry should what's that sponsored to? So it's yeah. The
the other thing that made me really so the fear
based approach sort of went away when I got older.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Rather than being scared of whereas I.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Was, Yeah I was. I didn't tell my parents anything,
so I was worried about the consequences. I want them
to go listen with robbed a bank and I'm like, Okay,
you're not in trouble, let's talk about fixing this. Yes,
I want to be there, go to And I think
if it's if you raise your kids with fear, you don't.
(20:13):
You're not You're not that, which means you can't help
them in their moments of when they really need you.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Bank rubbing the number one concern for you.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yeah, yeah, they've already they've already robbed three. They're so
good at it. I shouldn't have let them play pay
Day on the PC. But yeah, it's And the other
thing was to my part of like being with Mum
and Dad, I like, raising kids is hard, so I'll
forgive them. But then when I had my kids, they
(20:41):
really love. I really enjoy the having them around, like, oh,
it's actually not that bad. But it's different. I've got
more money than my parents had back of the day.
Dad had a lot of harder told them than me,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
It's really it's strict. It's outrageous that you that you
like the lens that you have for your parents. Well,
there's always way. I certainly have had this moment a
number of times parenting, where the lens that I had
for my parents looking from the bottom up is always
I expect more of you, And then I think the
moment that you become a parent, I don't know. I've
had this moment a number of times where I've gone like,
(21:17):
you were just me, weren't you?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah, Like, how are you guys finding it? You were
just drink and you don't react like your parents did.
It's really easy to not be that.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Yeah, yeah, exactly, Like you have those moments, but then
I also have the other side of the moment where
I have you know, I get home from work or
I'm tired, or I'm stressed, and you know, particularly on
where I'd catch myself and be like, I don't want
to be like that. Yeah, I don't know if you
find I semini. My partner and I, like we've talked
about it ad nauseum when we get home and we're like,
how do we want to do that? How can you
(21:46):
help me with that? Yeah? You know, because you have
lots of parts of yourself everyone does where you're reactive
and you don't control, you're triggered, you do something, you
don't want to do that, but you need someone to go, hey,
we don't, let's not parent like that. How do we
change the behavior?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And that's what was you know, we weren't demonstrated the
best techniques, and so that's how default. We've got to
try and step out of it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
And then you pick out and your partner like the
moments where it's like, I think you're doing that thing,
which is clearly saying that your parents did with you.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, I'm doing that. Yeah my parents did to me.
And we talk about that.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yeah it's really Yeah, it's hard, it's how and it's
our default reaction and then we've got to pull back.
And and also the kids are like asking things where
they're like, how would you deal with this? And You're like,
you know, they'll be teased at school and I'll be like,
you just gotta you know, just know that you know
they're doing it because they they're they're acting out, or
(22:38):
maybe they're jealous of you, so just let it go.
Whereas in my mind I'd be like, I still remember
insults from fifteen years ago, Like I have no idea
how I deal with that. I'd be like, I still
have grudges. You're trying to tell them, I don't know,
just be just to be's in And.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
As you bring out your list of people that.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Kick them into the score you didn't like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh look, it's been really good to have you. Thank
you so much, thanks for sharing that.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I think I think drive Time commercial radio is the
best time to.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Get that absolutely.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
And then just go straight to something on you know,
and then just flick it out on VI. I'm sorry,
I love that.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Thanks having me on.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
I appreciate it. Sorry for mocking your entire meeting.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
No that, don't apologize. Don't apologize at all, mate. This
is Kesher Brandon your track. Great, Luke McGregor. He's doing
all the comedy shows and the festivals. Go and catch
him comedy dot com dot a.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
U and Kesher support.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yeah, get around there, get around there? Yeah, yeah, what
do not what an artist? There's one profession in the
world which is compelled to write down whatever you say.
(24:14):
It's a florist. If there's this weird thing where anyone
else can tell you to piss off. Sorry, I haven't
got time for a note. But part of the gig
is if you order flowers, you get the card and
they've got to write the note for you.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You annotate it to them over the farm.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
It's exciting for them though, because obviously, you know, sometimes
they get some pretty saucy love notes.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
I imagine.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Well, well, it is an interesting position and we really
do like to try and push that as far as
you possibly can in this segment. So what we're gonna
do is we're gonna call a random florest right now,
I've written a note which you're going to read out
on air. H Okay, So none of the things that
are about to come out of your mouth or your
own thoughts. People should know this. You are compelled to
say what I'm holding up in front of you.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I'm about to say something horrific, aren't.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
The amazing thing about Florests in these scenarios for me
is just how well they managed to old character.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Totally, because I almost have to be like a priest
in the confessional, no judgment, just like get the words down.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Absolutely, and it's a sale for them. Say what you like, mate, Yeah,
it'll be one hundred dollars. So let's see whether or
not this woman actually does.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
So you'll hold you'll hold up the message to me. Yep,
when the time is right. Okay, I was speaking, Hi

Speaker 3 (26:54):
Yeah, interestingly mm hmm. She shares your pinch on.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
For food and pets in the bedroom.

sad face sad face simonmon.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
Yeah, okay, and Simon, is there anything particularly you'd like
to send or you have it to leave it to
us to like best.

dollar mark would be nice.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
I think so at plus delivery or yep.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
That's absolutely fine and sorry, just but I've got you there,
I haven't. I haven't obviously convided in anyone around that.
Do you think she's going to forgive me for that?
It's it's such a.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Yeah, no, probably can't comment on that. I don't know
what your relationship is.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
So yeah, married, we're married.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
We are married.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
You're off to good start sending some flowers, so yeah,
only you know the ins and outs of your relationship.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Very vindictive from the sister though the sister really it.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Doesn't sound pleasant. So you're happy to leave the flower
type up to us?
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Absolutely, yeah, I'm willing, Tom. I guess you know this.
You know the specs now, so flowers that say so

Speaker 5 (28:15):
If there's yeah, we'll pick something nice out for you.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
All right, best of luck, thank you so much, and
sorry Allie.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Just before I do let you go, I absolutely do
want those flowers one hundred percent, so please continue with
that transaction. But I do also want to let you
know that my name is actually Woody and I am
calling from a radio show.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
I had a feeling you aren't they It was a pretty.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
Wild message, and I feel like you handled yourself pretty well.
Do you often get notes annotated to you that are
pretty wild?
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Yeah, this one's actually quite tame, you huck.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Why No?
Speaker 5 (28:51):
First of all, I was like, this guy's very perky, perky.
When you started the card message, I was like, oh
my god, it's just going to be someone I'm no.
Flores will prank each other.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
With this sort of call where you go with an
outrageous cards.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Quite often it's for a funeral, so you have to
be serious, and you have to wait and wait and
wait and wait, so you cannot call some there's.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
A small chance of using funerals as good Ali, I reckon,
we'll do that next time.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
What's the most outrageous requests that you've had?
Speaker 5 (29:21):
This is an old boss of mine who made a
little mistake one year. I think it was Valentine's Day
and fellow sent flowers to his wife and his mistress,
and my old boss put the wrong card in the
wrong envelope. Wow, with a classic W.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Question for you, Yes, far away, do you.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Think that I would be a better romantic partner than you?
Speaker 3 (29:53):
I feel like you're setting me up for a trap.
But here's the thing. Here's what I like about you
will sexually.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
I think I think you know what you want in
your decisive and I think that's.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Attractive to other people.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
Okay, I think my problem would be that I think
I'm so eager to please that I think at the
end of the day that it'd start becoming a bit
of a turn off if I really had to break
it down.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Okay, so I really go on there. I respect that too.
To that effect, tip of the cap to you, that's
a lot. That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
To that effect, though, I think, Yes, so you struggle
saying what you want in the bedroom full stop?
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, i'd say so.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
Yeah, Okay, I got there with my wife, which is good,
but it's yeah, it takes a long time for sure.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Early on. It's just so eager to please, like a
puppy dog.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Yeah, no worries. So you I still haven't answered the question.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
So yes, yeah, I think you think.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
I would be a better romantic partner than you.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Oh sorry, I thought you were just talking about the budoir.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I think I kind of am.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Yeah, outside of budoir, I think you've got me on,
like your your very good at organizing dates, like you
like I hear about some of the some of the
great dates you organized for your partner.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Sem like, I'm just like, oh, that's good. You think
about gifts, and you give great gifts, and you're a.
Speaker 4 (31:06):
Great letter writer. All of these great traits of great romantics.
I think you've got Okay, not sure if you know
the intents there for mine? The intents there.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure if I ever land the jet.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
No, well, I think that time that you dressed up
as the Mad Hatter and birthday, and.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
I know you're bringing that up. See the intent is there?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Did you try it?
Speaker 3 (31:29):
I dressed up as catwoman because she likes cats. Again,
these aren't romantic things.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Actually, the only thing I've done good romantically is I
set up a scavenger hunt.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
You propose, you proposed in your concrete court yard.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
And now once again I know you bring it up
with your brother.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yes, that was nice. Yeah, didn't book dinner for the night,
but that's all right.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Nah, rocked up, got turned away by two restaurants on
engagement night, but eventually got into a very nice Chinese restaurant.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
So the reason I'm bringing this up is there's a
study that's been done that says two thousand people were interviewed.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
That's all lot.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Yeah, I think that's actually a good sample size. Who
have said that I have a feature. I've got something
about me that makes me a better romantic partner, makes
me more mature, makes me more masculine, and it makes
me more reliable.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
Yeah, it's your decisiveness. I think I hit the nail
on the head. I think it's your ability to make decision.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Think, my decisiveness comes with this thing that I've got.
You've never had it, by the way, and you never
will have it. Confidence you just keep it just gets it,
just gets raw and rawra.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I didn't mean.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I didn't mean, please, don't that's it. That's not it is.
It's actually something physical, chest, hair, my body, hair, clothes.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
So sorry, you have a you have a there's a
physical trait that you have that makes you a better
romantic partner, a.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Better romantic partner, more mature, more masculine, and more reliable.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Overwhelmingly so people that so I'm so I'm untrimmed leg here.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
No, you're making me sound like a wookie. No, no,
little star wars can.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
There's there's not that many different physical traits about you
between the two of us, like there's nothing.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
I have a beard, I bid over beard.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
I've got a stylized I've got a stylized beard.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
I've got no I know you've got very low self esteem,
so I don't want to crush you too much to you,
but
The Will M.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Woody podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Boomers. They're all on Facebook in the same way that
Nerd Beaches and Coffee Club have sort of accept the
responsibility of housing the boomers. In reality, I feel like
Mark Zuckerberg has done the same thing online. He's just
it's a sacrificial lamb of a platform. Now it's the
online God's waiting room.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Facebook.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
They're all there, and.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
I think they're cool because they're on the Facebook now.
They're like, I'm across that arm.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
The memes, their posts and it leads to a lot
of great blunders, which is just awesome. I'd love to
hear those calls. Thirty one and six y five Federal
MP Andrew g could call if he wanted to. So
this is yesterday, I think, or earlier today. So he
(00:54):
does a post on his official Andrew GMP bluetick nice page.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
He's in touch, He's in touch with the Youth's posted
on social media.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He says this. He says, it's day one and the
dirty tactics have already started. This afternoon, a constituent contacted
my office who told us that she'd been cold called
by a person who identified himself as someone from the
National Party and then they told Clayton lies about who
I was. Ya yah yah does this big post. Yeah,
(01:24):
he says, this constituent is seventy nine years old. She's
very upset about this first comment underneath it, and clearly
he doesn't. They forget I mean, this is where the
blunders begin. They just forget that they leave a trail.
So he's clearly written this post. And the next thing
he's done is he's gone, I know what I'll do
(01:45):
is I'll comment on my post as somebody else.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Oh yeah great right, yeah, yeah, perfect crime, the perfect crime.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, he writes, thank you, and then tags Andrew GMP.
I am Mutity area and I have also received multiple
texts from the nationals. I've seen nasty ads from the
paper till mob too. It has helped me to see
who the good guy really is.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And can I just say you're very attractive as well.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And he's totally totally forgotten to change accounts, so he's
just commented under his own post as himself and then
tagged himself that is in his own post, So everyone knows.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Everyone knows now, like ask, you've made the faux pa, right,
but how often do you do this?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Like how often have you successfully been doing all the time.
He's doing it all the Q nice things about yourself
through an.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I love that final line. It has helped me to
see who the good guy really is. It's awesome. So
look Facebook prop blunders. They're a beautiful thing. I'm sure
everyone's got a story here, so please they're anyone in
six five A very good friend of mine. He's dad,
and I think this will be one that we get
a lot on these calls. Woulds. His dad's status one
(03:06):
day was just natural breasts. Oh no, it's not even
the right website. He was overseas as well or something.
He's just gone to search natural breasts made it his
Facebook status. His wife couldn't get onto him, so she
(03:26):
just had to comment underneath it, Kevin, this is not
Google mark so I'm sure. I'm sure they're all out there.
Big shout out to my mate's statu if he's listening.
That was very good. Ken just entertained for a long
time time. Difference meant it was online for a good
fifteen hours. Captain poop Pan's a EP just reminded me
(03:46):
about that time that the very famous Australian professor Peter
Doherty posted on his Twitter he's opening hours. That's good
to his.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Did it say what time? What time? Did he try
and check Dan movie?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I just wanted to know what the scope was. It
was a Monday morning as well.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Monday morning, Yeah, Monday morning.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
He is too good. And I know you've got a
story about your dad as well.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Was more a fine story about dad. Let's go to
Karen first. Karen, this was your mom who had a
blunder on Facebook.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Yeah, yeah, Hi guys.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
My mom does a lot of traveling and she's quite
eldoly and insists on posting all about her holiday while
she's overseas. And one particular time, she was in London
with her current partner and his daughter, and she posted
about them being somewhere and included her his brother, who
had passed away. Takes him in the posters being with
them in London. She didn't know, and he hadn't passed
(04:47):
very recently, so it was a bit shocking. And then
I didn't know how to edit it or delete it,
so just put in the comments. Well, I'm sure he
wished he was here.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Oh, recovery, recovery. Hey, I'm going to jump in here
because dad did a very very similar line, super related.
So effectively, my dad is messaging his brother, so my uncle,
and effectively they're talking about Greg. Yeah, they're talking about
a friend of theirs who's not in a good way.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
He's going through some some health stuff. Now, they thought
they were private messaging, and so the conversation steers towards
and this is on both of their public walls. It
was back in the day when you walk, so they're
just chattingto each other publicly on one of the.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Which, by the way, was a wild thing, right, But
it went on that we used to have public chats,
and he.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Made decisions like do I want this chat public or private? Anyway,
they thought it was private. So then they start saying,
should we go and visit him? Would be the right
thing to do anyway. Dad's response was.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
No, I don't think so, and then he says the
guy's full name, which tags him. So he's tagged now
in the comment going and the comment is, I don't
think he's going to make it much longer. Don't see
the point this is on. So not only is it
the public warm, it's been tagged. Let's go to I'm
(06:07):
not sure if we'll get there in time. This was
your dad.
Speaker 7 (06:15):
Yeah, so my dad took a photo of my wedding
invitation which had all my details on it where it
was going to be at my mobile number, and posted
it on his Facebook to about four hundred friends and
said everyone is invited.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Such a deliberate then from him, he's one of an
open house wedding, I guess.
Speaker 7 (06:39):
So I called him straight away and I told him,
you need to delete this right now.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He was like, a wild deliberate move.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, it's not even a recklessly this is your dad.
We're talking Facebook booby blunders.
Speaker 8 (06:57):
Hello, Hello, I'm.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
You. You wanna talk about your dad? Vic?
Speaker 8 (07:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Boys, First, what do you want to do?
Speaker 8 (07:09):
He moved back to England. About I just wore COVID.
He's seventy two and he's absolutely useless with Facebook type
of stuff him And one minute I just looked at
it and he's got Asian brides something, a picture of
three like well I think there were women Asian brides
underneath as used Facebook status and I couldn't get in
(07:30):
contact with him for about a week and then when
I did, he was like, oh, I must have been hacked.
So I must have been hacked Oh no, I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Know, Oh Jesus, yeah, yeah, embarrassing post a photo of
him with three three women.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
No, he wasn't on there. It was just like, you know,
Asian brides, and it was three women.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
He captioned it Asian brides.
Speaker 8 (07:56):
Yeah, that's what Jesus.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
I don't know what to ask that I.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Realize that it's public.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yes, that's what's going on. They think of the search
engine because for all intend purposes, it looks like a search.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
So he searched Asian brides.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Yeah, and then obviously commented saying, three Asian brides.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Let's go to shame to Sha. They shouldn't be that. Hi,
hello Sha, we're tooking Facebook.
Speaker 9 (08:27):
Yes, so I got another mom story. But my mum
ripped into my brother's girlfriend on thinking it was a
private family group chat. He was tagged in it as well.
So on her page, she's written the comment because she
doesn't know how to use Facebook. She's written the comment
thinking it was in the private group chat.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
What she said, what's the worst thing she said?
Speaker 9 (08:50):
I can't remember exactly what it was, but she was
ripping into her like she's this and this and she's
so and so.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
Yeah and you.
Speaker 9 (08:59):
Shouldn't be with her, and this and that and the
other improved type of situation, and yeah, she saw it
didn't go down very well.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So the other girl did say it, Yes, I know,
did she confront her.
Speaker 9 (09:14):
No, my brother rang and my hat to do, you know,
dummage control control. But yeah, so he was frantically trying
to ring my mom to get the post taken down,
but she didn't know how to do that.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So that's the issue as well.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Once they realized.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
What to do it. Yeah, it's out there. That's shocking. Yeah, yeah,
he's still saying she is.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Right at the end of the time, Christmas lunch for
you guys.

When I do something he doesn't like, like if I
have to go to the toilet and he just he's
following me in there because he wants to keep talking
about minecraft. Of course, and I close the door and
lock it so he can't follow me, and he goes, Okay,

They're the same age.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Yeah, yeah, we sinked up, we thinked up.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeahs it's all content rights.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
That's a good bit. It's a two year story.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah yeah, run in time for ratings week.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
How does that check go in the middle of the
night when it's like, you know, one of you needs to.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Go we we at the moment have just both get up,
so Amy will feed them and then I'll change and
brip them. But it all depends, like if one of
us has to get up at like five the next day, yeah,
and the other one doesn't. But usually both of us
(13:05):
get up just because we wake up anyway. I mean,
if Amy's feeding the baby and I'm like, I go, okay,
I'm gonna go back to sleep, just feels weird.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So I just stay up, doesn't it It doesn't you
have this like you never feel it more of a
piece of shit in your life than when they're like
feeding and you're just like yeah, because and then when
you do fall asleep because that I mean, let's say
it happens.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
I've got sleep at mere, so I need a little
mask as well as I start snoring real bad. It's
one of the issues with being a virgin for so
long as you don't know what sleep issues you've got.
I'm courage ever, I'm listening to get out there and
stay safe.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
And then do a question. And the next morning, what
am I doing during the night?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
For me to go back to sleep, I have to
put my mask back on. So then it's a real
consciously like so I just stay up.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I'm casually you can't.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
I can't drift off because I had to put the
mask on and trying the machine on.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
So you hear that, yeah, say no.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Sorry, Like are you purposely trying to alienate your audience
like you've just said, have you having a great drive home?
Not everyone's striving.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, that's a good I appreciate that. Live feedback. Where
is this three six ygoes after eight years someone said
it said it.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah, it's like I'm walking up.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I can't go out there to the people that are
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Anyone outside the studio, think through the grapes, through the ale.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
That's a fair shout. Actually it's a fair shout. Actually,
I haven't thought about that, and it's always has been.
I mean, it even says it on our bloody poster woods.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
For the drive home. And it's wrong.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Why I I only listen to it when I'm when
I'm driving because I thought, you know, lad, Otherwise, Yeah,
as the people the tram catches somewhere else really saying
we don't want you, isn't it should be Will and
more Will and Woody for earth Maximize, maximize your audience
(15:19):
for breathers.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah we're here, Hey, I want to talk. So Don's brother,
anybody that you avoid conflict at all costs except just then,
I guess, yeah, came at me.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It was well, it should have been Willing Woody Luke,
until the until the breakup, until the accident, excepte.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
I've never been attacked by you before. It felt good
for me.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I enjoyed it. Yeah, it was a bit of fun.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Are you trying to do it more. Are you trying
to attack more?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
No, I because I've got kids now. If something goes wrong,
they look to you to fix it. I don't know
if they don't get something, which I would normally just
let fly, and they're like, I really do want my
six nuggets?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Oh yes, And I'm like, yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Fair enough, and I'm going to go back and drive
back to McDonald's. You didn't give me the six nuggets.
I don't have the receipt.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
But so you just fold like a back of cards.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Normally I would just like that's fine.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Yeah, because said do you know this conversation the other
day about you got to teach them consequence, like if
you do that, and I say you can't do that,
and I say, this is what's going to happen if
you do that. You have to follow through on the
you know, I'm going to take that away or I'm
going to leave the room or whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Thing.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Otherwise you just you're a walkover and they take it.
They they just start taking advantage of it.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I think the kids' test boundaries, but like, whatever works now,
you have to do something that works when they're.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
An adult as well.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Seventeen and tall. So any punishment that revolves around you
being big actual control, yeah, it doesn't work, so it's good.
The downside, I guess of that is I have talked
to the kids and just said listen, and they'll be like,
I only did the dishction you told me to, and
I'm because I had to. And I'm like, well, to
(17:03):
be fully transparent. If you had said I'm not going
to unpack the dishwash, actually don't have a backup plan
other than feel sad. So I'm very grateful that you choose.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
To like emotional black, I would be very sad.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
My dad used to smack me, which is old school,
you know, but it was that thing was once I
got older, nothing he did work. Yeah, like all the
past that all of your tools relied on me being
little there. So I've been really careful with the children
just to like, okay, this is my wife's six foot
one and my kids are going to be they're going
(17:42):
to tower over me. So and you know, just smacking
in general, don't do it. But it's it's I always
remember that moment where a dad and I flipped our relationship.
So I'm really careful with my kids to make sure
it's got to work later.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Sorry, can I ask you tell me if this is
two invasives? But like the moment when I guess it's radio, Like,
do you remember distinctly the moment when the relationship lipped? Yeah, Like,
was there like an actual moment where you were like, oh,
you're looking at me and you can't.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Dad was very He didn't like apologizing because I think
he had a certain amount of pride and like he
had to be, you know, right, and when he was wrong,
he didn't like to admit it.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Pretty classic male of that generation.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
And like his childhood was really hard, a lot harder
than mine. But you don't know that as a kid.
You just know what you're going through. It was I
think I was maybe fifteen or something. Dad asked me
to do something that I objected to. I honestly can't
remember what it was, and I just said no, and
then we just stared at each other and I said,
and you can hit me, and we just it was
(18:50):
just this weird moment where I'm I don't have I
don't have to listen to my dad anymore. It was weird,
it was, And I just remember that and think I
never had that with my kids. I never onto because
you in the end, you want them to do what
is quote unquote right because they want to do it
for you.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yeah, they love you and or they know it's right
because I know it's the right thing to rather have
to do that.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Like you want, because that's how you benef that's how
they that's how you're training for life rights. That you
want them to do the thing when you're not there
because it's good for them, whether it's brushing their teeth
or whereas you know, because my and I'm sorry, this
is very funny, but because my house.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Was hilarious, people are dying out the producer.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Sorry should what's that sponsored to? So it's yeah. The
the other thing that made me really so the fear
based approach sort of went away when I got older.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Rather than being scared of whereas I.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Was, Yeah I was. I didn't tell my parents anything,
so I was worried about the consequences. I want them
to go listen with robbed a bank and I'm like, Okay,
you're not in trouble, let's talk about fixing this. Yes,
I want to be there, go to And I think
if it's if you raise your kids with fear, you don't.
(20:13):
You're not You're not that, which means you can't help
them in their moments of when they really need you.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Bank rubbing the number one concern for you.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yeah, yeah, they've already they've already robbed three. They're so
good at it. I shouldn't have let them play pay
Day on the PC. But yeah, it's And the other
thing was to my part of like being with Mum
and Dad, I like, raising kids is hard, so I'll
forgive them. But then when I had my kids, they
(20:41):
really love. I really enjoy the having them around, like, oh,
it's actually not that bad. But it's different. I've got
more money than my parents had back of the day.
Dad had a lot of harder told them than me,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
It's really it's strict. It's outrageous that you that you
like the lens that you have for your parents. Well,
there's always way. I certainly have had this moment a
number of times parenting, where the lens that I had
for my parents looking from the bottom up is always
I expect more of you, And then I think the
moment that you become a parent, I don't know. I've
had this moment a number of times where I've gone like,
(21:17):
you were just me, weren't you?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah, Like, how are you guys finding it? You were
just drink and you don't react like your parents did.
It's really easy to not be that.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Yeah, yeah, exactly, Like you have those moments, but then
I also have the other side of the moment where
I have you know, I get home from work or
I'm tired, or I'm stressed, and you know, particularly on
where I'd catch myself and be like, I don't want
to be like that. Yeah, I don't know if you
find I semini. My partner and I, like we've talked
about it ad nauseum when we get home and we're like,
how do we want to do that? How can you
(21:46):
help me with that? Yeah? You know, because you have
lots of parts of yourself everyone does where you're reactive
and you don't control, you're triggered, you do something, you
don't want to do that, but you need someone to go, hey,
we don't, let's not parent like that. How do we
change the behavior?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And that's what was you know, we weren't demonstrated the
best techniques, and so that's how default. We've got to
try and step out of it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
And then you pick out and your partner like the
moments where it's like, I think you're doing that thing,
which is clearly saying that your parents did with you.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, I'm doing that. Yeah my parents did to me.
And we talk about that.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yeah it's really Yeah, it's hard, it's how and it's
our default reaction and then we've got to pull back.
And and also the kids are like asking things where
they're like, how would you deal with this? And You're like,
you know, they'll be teased at school and I'll be like,
you just gotta you know, just know that you know
they're doing it because they they're they're acting out, or
(22:38):
maybe they're jealous of you, so just let it go.
Whereas in my mind I'd be like, I still remember
insults from fifteen years ago, Like I have no idea
how I deal with that. I'd be like, I still
have grudges. You're trying to tell them, I don't know,
just be just to be's in And.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
As you bring out your list of people that.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Kick them into the score you didn't like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh look, it's been really good to have you. Thank
you so much, thanks for sharing that.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I think I think drive Time commercial radio is the
best time to.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Get that absolutely.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
And then just go straight to something on you know,
and then just flick it out on VI. I'm sorry,
I love that.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Thanks having me on.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
I appreciate it. Sorry for mocking your entire meeting.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
No that, don't apologize. Don't apologize at all, mate. This
is Kesher Brandon your track. Great, Luke McGregor. He's doing
all the comedy shows and the festivals. Go and catch
him comedy dot com dot a.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
U and Kesher support.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yeah, get around there, get around there? Yeah, yeah, what
do not what an artist? There's one profession in the
world which is compelled to write down whatever you say.
(24:14):
It's a florist. If there's this weird thing where anyone
else can tell you to piss off. Sorry, I haven't
got time for a note. But part of the gig
is if you order flowers, you get the card and
they've got to write the note for you.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You annotate it to them over the farm.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
It's exciting for them though, because obviously, you know, sometimes
they get some pretty saucy love notes.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
I imagine.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Well, well, it is an interesting position and we really
do like to try and push that as far as
you possibly can in this segment. So what we're gonna
do is we're gonna call a random florest right now,
I've written a note which you're going to read out
on air. H Okay, So none of the things that
are about to come out of your mouth or your
own thoughts. People should know this. You are compelled to
say what I'm holding up in front of you.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
I'm about to say something horrific, aren't.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
The amazing thing about Florests in these scenarios for me
is just how well they managed to old character.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Totally, because I almost have to be like a priest
in the confessional, no judgment, just like get the words down.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Absolutely, and it's a sale for them. Say what you like, mate, Yeah,
it'll be one hundred dollars. So let's see whether or
not this woman actually does.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
So you'll hold you'll hold up the message to me. Yep,
when the time is right. Okay, I was speaking, Hi

Yes, when you told me you had an identical sister.

Who spent her life finding, spent her life finding and seducing. Yeah,
her sister's partners, My sister's partners.

Speaker 3 (26:47):

a part.
Speaker 5 (26:52):
Able to tell your part.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Yeah, interestingly mm hmm. She shares your pinch on.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
For food and pets in the bedroom.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Perhaps a conversation for another time, a conversation and then
just and then just please forgive me, and maybe a
sad face sad face simonmon.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
Yeah, okay, and Simon, is there anything particularly you'd like
to send or you have it to leave it to
us to like best.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
On the day, or maybe if I can around eighty
dollar mark would be nice.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
I think so at plus delivery or yep.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
That's absolutely fine and sorry, just but I've got you there,
I haven't. I haven't obviously convided in anyone around that.
Do you think she's going to forgive me for that?
It's it's such a.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Yeah, no, probably can't comment on that. I don't know
what your relationship is.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
So yeah, married, we're married.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
We are married.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
You're off to good start sending some flowers, so yeah,
only you know the ins and outs of your relationship.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Very vindictive from the sister though the sister really it.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Doesn't sound pleasant. So you're happy to leave the flower
type up to us?
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Absolutely, yeah, I'm willing, Tom. I guess you know this.
You know the specs now, so flowers that say so
sorry I hooked up with your sister.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
If there's yeah, we'll pick something nice out for you.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
All right, best of luck, thank you so much, and
sorry Allie.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Just before I do let you go, I absolutely do
want those flowers one hundred percent, so please continue with
that transaction. But I do also want to let you
know that my name is actually Woody and I am
calling from a radio show.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
I had a feeling you aren't they It was a pretty.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
Wild message, and I feel like you handled yourself pretty well.
Do you often get notes annotated to you that are
pretty wild?
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Yeah, this one's actually quite tame, you huck.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Why No?
Speaker 5 (28:51):
First of all, I was like, this guy's very perky, perky.
When you started the card message, I was like, oh
my god, it's just going to be someone I'm no.
Flores will prank each other.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
With this sort of call where you go with an
outrageous cards.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Quite often it's for a funeral, so you have to
be serious, and you have to wait and wait and
wait and wait, so you cannot call some there's.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
A small chance of using funerals as good Ali, I reckon,
we'll do that next time.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
What's the most outrageous requests that you've had?
Speaker 5 (29:21):
This is an old boss of mine who made a
little mistake one year. I think it was Valentine's Day
and fellow sent flowers to his wife and his mistress,
and my old boss put the wrong card in the
wrong envelope. Wow, with a classic W.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Question for you, Yes, far away, do you.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Think that I would be a better romantic partner than you?
Speaker 3 (29:53):
I feel like you're setting me up for a trap.
But here's the thing. Here's what I like about you
will sexually.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
I think I think you know what you want in
your decisive and I think that's.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Attractive to other people.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
Okay, I think my problem would be that I think
I'm so eager to please that I think at the
end of the day that it'd start becoming a bit
of a turn off if I really had to break
it down.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Okay, so I really go on there. I respect that too.
To that effect, tip of the cap to you, that's
a lot. That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
To that effect, though, I think, Yes, so you struggle
saying what you want in the bedroom full stop?
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, i'd say so.
Speaker 4 (30:27):
Yeah, Okay, I got there with my wife, which is good,
but it's yeah, it takes a long time for sure.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Early on. It's just so eager to please, like a
puppy dog.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Yeah, no worries. So you I still haven't answered the question.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
So yes, yeah, I think you think.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
I would be a better romantic partner than you.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Oh sorry, I thought you were just talking about the budoir.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I think I kind of am.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Yeah, outside of budoir, I think you've got me on,
like your your very good at organizing dates, like you
like I hear about some of the some of the
great dates you organized for your partner.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Sem like, I'm just like, oh, that's good. You think
about gifts, and you give great gifts, and you're a.
Speaker 4 (31:06):
Great letter writer. All of these great traits of great romantics.
I think you've got Okay, not sure if you know
the intents there for mine? The intents there.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure if I ever land the jet.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
No, well, I think that time that you dressed up
as the Mad Hatter and birthday, and.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
I know you're bringing that up. See the intent is there?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Did you try it?
Speaker 3 (31:29):
I dressed up as catwoman because she likes cats. Again,
these aren't romantic things.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Actually, the only thing I've done good romantically is I
set up a scavenger hunt.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
You propose, you proposed in your concrete court yard.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
And now once again I know you bring it up
with your brother.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yes, that was nice. Yeah, didn't book dinner for the night,
but that's all right.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Nah, rocked up, got turned away by two restaurants on
engagement night, but eventually got into a very nice Chinese restaurant.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
So the reason I'm bringing this up is there's a
study that's been done that says two thousand people were interviewed.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
That's all lot.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Yeah, I think that's actually a good sample size. Who
have said that I have a feature. I've got something
about me that makes me a better romantic partner, makes
me more mature, makes me more masculine, and it makes
me more reliable.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
Yeah, it's your decisiveness. I think I hit the nail
on the head. I think it's your ability to make decision.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Think, my decisiveness comes with this thing that I've got.
You've never had it, by the way, and you never
will have it. Confidence you just keep it just gets it,
just gets raw and rawra.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I didn't mean.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I didn't mean, please, don't that's it. That's not it is.
It's actually something physical, chest, hair, my body, hair, clothes.
Speaker 4 (33:01):
So sorry, you have a you have a there's a
physical trait that you have that makes you a better
romantic partner, a.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Better romantic partner, more mature, more masculine, and more reliable.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Overwhelmingly so people that so I'm so I'm untrimmed leg here.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
No, you're making me sound like a wookie. No, no,
little star wars can.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
There's there's not that many different physical traits about you
between the two of us, like there's nothing.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
I have a beard, I bid over beard.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
