Speaker 1 (00:00):
It was rushed to hospital. I love my job. I
might have it for much longer. A family was rushed
to hospital after a restaurant allegedly was served insect repellent
for juice. Yeah, this happened in Perth. So they ordered Australia. Yes, Australia,

(00:23):
my cousin, it's so Australian. Okay, So this is what happened.
It was over in Perth in a cafe and the
family went in and the two kids they ordered cranberry
juice for them, and as kids do, they went straight
to the drink quite aggressively, like thirsty. So they just
they put it in the god and swallowed a big

(00:46):
gold each and then they violently spat it out. Yeah,
and went ah and spat it out. And then the
mum as mums, don't be ridiculous, it's cranberry juice. It
just went bang and swallowed it and let it all
out as well, so she's just gone oh. And then

(01:06):
so the three of them are like reacting, and then
the dad quickly grabbed the cup and sniffed it and
then just yelled out chemicals. It's chemicals. And the obviously
everyone was rushing around and everything and he said, where's
the bottle, where's the bottle, and staff at first didn't
give him the bottle. Yeah, and he said, give me

(01:30):
the goddamn bottle because we need to know what they've consumed.
And they're going, it's cranberry juice. Relax, calm down, Yeah,
you're nuts, it's cranberry juice. And meanwhile the family is
sort of reacting terribly, and so eventually they got the
bottle out and then the two kids were rushed to
the children's hospital in Perth, and then the mum went

(01:51):
to a different hospital. That's how bad it was. But
they were observed for about six hours and then it
turned out they're okay. So obviously there is now an
investigation into why. Well, first of all, why someone would
mistake it, which means that the insect repellent must be
in an old juice bottle of some source, yes, and
it must be that color. But anyway, it's ridiculous. But

(02:13):
the one thing that I came came to my mind
because it was insect repellent, was at any stage where
the kids and the mum on their backs with their
arms praying around everywhere, and some came on the radio Louis.
One of them wanted to just go for under the fridge.
Do you know what I want to say to or
kids listening. Mums do this thing where they taste everyone's

(02:33):
food and have little SIPs of their food before the
kids do, and the mums say, just checking us see
if it's poisonous. Kids, we're telling the truth, even though
when we do that normally that's a joke.
