Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jersey and Amanda jam Nation.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Today is the twenty second of May. And I know
that because your eldest son was born on this day
twenty two.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Years twenty two years ago.
Speaker 4 (00:12):
Me.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
You know, as I said earlier, people still remember hearing
on the radio that he was born, but it reminds
them of that where they were in their lives. And
I've kept all the emails all actually they were faxes
then in those days. I've kept all the correspondents from
that day to show Liam that's up.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Have you got them?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I was going to show them on Who's twenty first,
but I'd forgotten about them until just now.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I do have it somewhere.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
There's somewhere, and he'll find them on his fiftieth birthday.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Because Jack's birthday was just last week. And Liam, so
we all know what you were getting up to around
this time a year, eh.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
I, Brendan, Yeah, That's what I was getting up to.
You're having of making it sound a little bit weird,
but deal, it is a huge deal in and we
as I've told this story before, we tried for so
many years to have a baby. I'm going to get Tierry,
but to actually be able to finally say those words
out loud. I used to fantasize about saying those words
(01:09):
out loud, saying that I was pregnant, and I thought
what would happen. It's like you're in a boat and
you think how far can I tip it before I
fall in? I used to think what would happen if
I said the words out loud, just to see how
they felt. And I have to deal with the implications
of the fact I wasn't, but to be able to
say it was the most thrilling thing ever.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Apropa of the boat. Remember the time you were on
a boat with Bruce mcavain and you tipped it over
and he was wearing chinos that went a bit sea through.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
How did Chino's go sea? You've imagined this beyond what
actually happened. There were a range of people, and his
trousers were thick enough that they weren't see through anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
You tipped that boat over and Bruce got wet.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
There's nothing to do with the birth of my son.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Not at all.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
But I would like to say that I was part
of that era, that era when you I remember having
a great chat with you than you were saying, I
think we're just going.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
To be childless.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I remember you saying that. I remember you saying that
that's that's your life. You're going to be childless.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
And this is what people face every day.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Really say to yourself when you have a baby.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
And I've been married for ten years, won't your baby?
What do you think's going on? And people to think
that I was putting my career first, and beginning one
facts from a man saying, after we announced we're having
a baby, I wondered when you'd be brave enough to
have to try motherhood or something like that. I thought,
no one has any idea what other people are going through.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Well, and you taught me that thing about you. Just
never say to anyone that's been married for a while,
you don't ask them about kids. I never ask anyone
are you going to have kids? It's not my business.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
And in those days with IVF, one in three had
a baby, so two out of three went home empty handed.
Everyone thinks they know someone who had an IVF baby,
But in those days, two out of three did not
get a baby.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
So twenty two years ago, today, I'm going to get
this box of tissues, are going to give it to
you now, I'm going to play the thing. We're going
to play the creed thing because people and it was
this is for those that don't know Andrew Dent and
Manda used to do a show with Andrew Denton before me.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yes, I know it's I've been seeing other people before
you give.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
The former husband. But we're all together at Triple M
back in those days and it was one of the
greatest moments and people just love hearing this. Let's put
it on.
