• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I didn't have this saying when I was growing up,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: not me, wasn't used in my school. Maybe it was
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: a new South Wales thing. Go on one two three
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: eyes on me. That groundbreaking and then they respond one
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: two eyes on you.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Call and response. Bro the Wiggles are onto something, weren't
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: they broke?
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: It was I was picking up Marley from school care
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: and there was a young male teacher a group of
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: like twenty kids and they would just go on berserk.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: They wanted to play outside and he just goes one
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: two three eyes on me, just instantly, instant they stopped,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: they freeze, they turned to him, they go one two
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: eyes on you little robots to wow.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: And they also used to have the clap where you
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: have to call and respond on the class Like I'm
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: trying to definitely realizing similar con I like it, so
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: you've used it. I use it at home all the
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: time now.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: But sometimes I stuff it up and I'm like one
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: two three look.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: At me and like what the say what?
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, what's the thing again?
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: I use it? How's it go? Go?
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Do the proper one one two three, eyes on me,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: eyes on me, and the neighbors.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: One two eyes on you.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: Sometimes she says eyes on pooh, that's even better.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: It's a giggle. Oh yeah, and Laura's like, don't laugh
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: at that. What I'll do is I'll give it a
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: go with my kids who just don't know how to
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: look at me and see how we go.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: It's a game Changer'll be like, yeah, not you. It
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter what they're doing it. I don't know how
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: long is this going to last? For maybe weeks, maybe months,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: maybe years.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: You get pulled into the office at school and they'll
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: be like, look, you're doing it so much at home,
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: they're not listening here anymore.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: That's what's going to happen.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: I feel like there's only a certain period of time,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: and now that I'm using it at home, it's like
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: fast tracking the time that it won't become effective. So
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: she'll get to grade two and she'll just be like
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: an absolute troublemaker.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she'd be like acting out, seeking of the call
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: and response, and then she'll grow up and she'll have
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: trauma about horn response.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: But don't if it doesn't work don't come for me.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I won't And for any teachers who are like, hey,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: you're stealing my gear, my material, I apologize. I feel
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: like there needs to be stronger crossover between parents and teachers.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but they've got enough going on as it is. Mate,
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: help us, but help us.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: You're the experts, you're trained, you have degree and controlling kids.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: But exactly, But like the thing is, they've got to
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: control these kids all day and like they can't as
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: we would, as we spoke about with Dave fuse episode,
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: you can't hit them anymore, you know what I mean,
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Like they have to put up with so much stuff.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: The last thing they want to do is crossover with the.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Tell us Like parent teacher, Night's be like, hey, like
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: here's a little saying.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: There'd be parents they'd be like, don't tell me how
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: to parent, because people get their neck up a bit
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: about that.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Tell me.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Well, then I think it should be like, like parent teacher,
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: I do you want to know the inner workings?
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Do you want to be in the inner sanctum of parent?
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Kid phrase of the day is definitely opt in. Yeah.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: It's like when you sign up for something and it's like,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: do you want to receive emails about offers. No parent teacher,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: do you want tricks of the trade? Yes?
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Opt in beautiful. I love it. I love that.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I'm going to give it a go and I will
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: come come back with the results, which I'm assuming my
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: kids are a bit dopey, so they'll be like what
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: they might work well to, like the clap, not p
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: media clap, like moving on.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: That's Macy's good.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: She is good. She's super cheeky. Man, she's just come
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: out of a shell. And she's the trouble maker. They
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: do say the youngest is the trouble maker. I feel
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: like and I always thought, nah, not my Macie. That's
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: such a parent thing. Shut up. But yeah, she's a
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: che is a trouble maker. And as you know, with
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: young kids, it's really hard to get them to eat
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: their dinner. It's a constant battle. And I'm sick of
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: the fucking battle.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: May I ask you a question, do you have dinner
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: at the dinner table or do you have like a
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: little side table. And to add to that, do you
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: have the TV on?
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: So we have a little table for the kids, and
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: it varies sometimes sometimes they want the TV on, but
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: it's always like Hey, if we're putting the TV on,
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: you gotta fucking eat, you gotta eat. And we'll all
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: sit and watch the same movie and it has to
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: be like a you know, not too intense movie because
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: it's getting close to bedtime something like that.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it sucks when you put on a scary partner
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: movie and they're like.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: That, have you guys seen sort one through?
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: And then some days they're like, we'll be drawing or something,
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: and then dinner will be ready and they're like, can
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: I keep drawing and eat them? As long as you eat,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: it's fine, But they never do. It's just an argument.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: I feel like I spend majority of my life arguing
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: with these kids about eating.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Oh there is, Oh my god, you like that. I
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: like that big blow.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: When you just get one that like stretches out your
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: whole body, Like, that's what that one?
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: It was nice watching you have that level of enjoyment.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: That's as close to a cucktol I'll ever get.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: But yeah, So, and then sometimes if it depends on.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: What we're eating, we might all eat together, but we'll
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: sort of try and eat later so that we can
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: have some piece in quiet. Just it varies, it varies,
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: for us, but whatever the circumstance is, even if it's
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: their favorite food.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: And kids have a very good.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Knack of being like, eat all of that one night,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: So you do it again and they're like, I don't
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: like that anyone, And that just infuriates me even more.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: I need to take myself on time out there because
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: I'm like kids in the shower, cold shower, shaking it,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: you know. But Macy has started to eat all of
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: a sudden, I come and check she's eating through her food.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I'm like, very good, and she's getting the you know what,
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: it's like, you.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Bribe them to eat.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: You bribe them or you punish them whatever you want
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: to do if they don't eat. But we go with
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: bribe because it's what do you bribe with. Look a
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: little bit of dark chocolate or.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Something like that, like very small, but they love that
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: dark cho they love it.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: We give them a drop of champagne.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: We just give them a red line and usually that
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: will get, you know, a good response, sometimes itching.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: No, I itched. It's a bit gropy anyway.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: So but then I was like, oh, I mean she's
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: eating our food, so I thought, and I kept saying,
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: you're eating all your dinner, and she just gives me
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: the cheeky yeah. Turns out she turns out been feeding
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: the dog ah ah, which is annoying for two reasons.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: One reason is she's not eating it dinner. And then
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: she gets out of the shower into bed she's like,
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: come hung ah, it's the worst. It's the fucking worst.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, well stuff, I'm like, oh my god.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: But then also the dog, she's an older dog, and
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: like with Buster, you were saying, if you feed anything
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: other than the dry food, farts running sh nano.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: One time gave him like half a bowl of brown rice,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: like full dies out all the around. We said, a
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: rug down there. They explode, just brown rice diarrhea at
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: the back end of Buster.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was worried.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: And before I figured it out, I was really worried
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: about the dog because she was fucking doing runny ship.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: She was waking up in the middle of the night.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: She was vomiting like you gout in the yard and
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: just vomiting runny shit. And I was like, oh, no,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: like she's getting on.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: We're gonna have to be close. She must be close.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: She dated a number dog.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: And then I walked past they had chicken, like roast chicken,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: dinosaur pasta.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: I'm going, you love the dinosaur past.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: To go to and I think it was carrot cucumb
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: but they both like either either, so whatever.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: And then I.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Was walking past him like I was just hooking into
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: that chicken and pasta and stuff like that's pretty good.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I was like, you're eating a.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: And then I came back again and the dog. I
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: saw the dog behind the couch munching away at something.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: But the dog should also know that this is not
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: good for you.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: No, she don't care.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: She's like a heroin Autut's d Yeah, she's like food,
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna eat to explode. And I was like, and
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: I look over and it's a bit of chicken.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: She's thrown away the goods stuff.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: And I was like, Tomasie, I'm like, you've been eating
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: that chicken. She was like mhm. I was like, so
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: you haven't fed the dog.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no. And I was like, okay, no worries.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: And I went back down the hallway and took my
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: shoes off and snuck up the hallway and Pokemond around
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: the corner.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: And she's not doing it. At the table.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: The dogs behind the couch waiting, so it's premedit. I've
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: worked it out. And she's walking around and she's like
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: she scuffles back. She gets so easily startled she falls over.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: The Time's so funny. I was like fallen over, cried
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: and carried on like she's the victim, and.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: I'm like, the real victim is the poor dog.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: She's fucking squirting at both ends because if you're just
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: feeding her at all sorts of ship. And also I've
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: worked out that the dog choose a carrot, doesn't eat it.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: She likes the feel and her teeth sensory, yeah, sensory.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: And then yes, I'm being finding carrot tuedor in places
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: because it makes it's been feeding the dog carrot?
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: How do you stop this? Just put the dog down?
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: I guess about time. There's a lot it's it's been.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: There's been a stern word, there's I know, but just here.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Can stare at my breast neck is healing, next heel.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: But now I've got an itch, I've got i got bedbugs.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: But yeah, anyway, so Macy's she's fooled us all for
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: a little while there, but now she's.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Back to not eating it. It's just frustrating me.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: All that thought come down, Ellie.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: So it's a bit of chaos today, and the Johnson
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: household that's always chaos. He's a little bit chaotic. The
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: whole order system need replacing.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Ash, I did see that on your story. Very rusty,
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: very rusty, right, La, God.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Don't yell at us?
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Can you can you give her a spray when she
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: comes down there stairs?
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Don't you worry, mate, I've been waiting all day for it.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: She wants to say, she wants to say that I'm
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: going to eat all the chocolates in his house. She's
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: going to cop one and hey, do you know what's
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: really lovely those chocolates? Just because I'm coming over, it
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: doesn't mean all the chocolates in the house are going
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: to be gone.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: What a horrible thing for you to say.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, are you fat shaming me?
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: You fat shaming? Be careful of my neck. I'm injured,
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: do you know what? It's not my neck that hurts anymore,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: it's my feelings. You just have a sweet You better
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: have a sweet tooth.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Are you you wait outside?
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I love you.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Question for you, Ash, love it when you asked me
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: questions as long.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: It has nothing to do about tax tax on my personal.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: I think I know the answer to this question, but
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: maybe the listeners do not. Okay, have you ever changed
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: the nappy of one of your children?
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Of course I have. It's the best part about being
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: a dad, is it. No, Yeah, definitely, I don't think.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: I think when I started to have kids, but when
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: I had them, not started when I had one. Let
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: me say that when I had child first one, I
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: was always I put so much pressure on myself getting
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: the nappy right.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: That's how much I cared about it, and I thought
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: that it was equally.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: My especially in that time where April's had a see section,
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: she's had major surgery.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: I think I was like, I want to make sure
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: that I do this right.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: For me, it's like the one baby task. I'd say
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: one because multiple baby, but it's like the easiest one
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: for dads. That is like step one of like doing
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: stuff with the baby.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: It's almost like it's one of the easiest and also
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: the one of the biggest contributions you can make at
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: that time.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Like when you're an apprentice carpenter, you were once one. Yeah,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: what's like the first task you learned?
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's something like and it's sort of mean. It's
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: usually sanding skirting boards, but go on after carpets been
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: ripped up. And I don't know if you know anything
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: about carpeting. I did carpeting for a while there. They
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: caught smooth edge. But it's got nails, isn't it. It's counterproductive.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: It's kind of mean.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: That would make you stand that and your fucking hands
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: are getting torn to pieces.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: It's a bit like a bit like changing nappies. Yeah,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: just steak right, instead of standing skirting boards, you're changing nappies.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're wiping a buttole. Yeah, and sometimes it's winking.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: Thanks for that.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: It's the most important part. It's it's phase one, phase one.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: I think it's like it's yeah, it's yeah. Like I said,
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: it's it's an easy job because it's pretty straightforward.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: It steams. Yeah, but you can get over that. But
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: the contribution is big.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: This may or may not surprise you, Ash, I've never surprised.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Compared to two generations ago, dads are now spending three
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: times as much time with their children.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: So two generations ago they were spending three times less time. Yes, okay, great,
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: I'm on time.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Page perfect.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: As a result of that, we're now changing this as dads,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: we're now changing nappies more frequently.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Yea.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: So now currently ninety seven percent of dads are changing nappies.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Who the fuck are the three percent that are.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Well, let's just get into that in a second. Back
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: in the day it we're like fifty seven percent back
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: in the I did see back in the dark ages, you.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Know, even now and then on like your for you
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: page whatever, it might be like an old street interview
• 28:20

  Speaker 3: you think about sharing the responsibilities of parenting?
• 28:24

  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: So, apparently ninety seven percent of dads and now changing
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: nappies boot, which which raises a very important question, who
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: was that three percent?
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think first of all, I would like to
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: say congratulations to the ninety seven percent first stepping up,
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: stepping up and doing what you should be doing, undoing
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: the work of the old generation.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: And I don't know.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Times are different, things are different, and there's.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Well, I do have to say that these stats they've
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: been pulled from TikTok.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, so it's credible.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw something we tried to do some research.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Apparentis the website called Motherly also shared the stats. But
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: if people are like, well, where don't you get that
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: information from? It's not like the Bureau of It's not

  Speaker 1: who work in finance get a bad rap.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Let's just roll into this one.

  Speaker 2: I feel like you've got to give up some sort
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: of excuse.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: It's like when you cancel plans with someone and you
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: you've got to make up a reason why. And it's
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: like I've started to do this thing where it's like
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter, So I just I'm not coming, you know,

  Speaker 2: Not me.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: But the post office is a weird combination between the
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: library and inconvenience store, don't you think, but with a
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: line in it, like you're always lining up in the
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: post office.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: It's quiet, No one's really.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of paper shuffling, but also you can
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: pick up like some odd toy that you saw on TV.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: On TV, the toys in there with the kids are
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: fucking horrendous, as in like they're just like they are
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: just they've got it absolutely dial to just get your
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: child's attention.
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: Point of under, I was in there.
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: Like, well, look at me.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Quickly, don't look at the toys. Have you seen the
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: scene on TV? Section it's amazing? What do you got?
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Per rant?
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: This one's from We got it a few times actually,
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: and we have brought this up before.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: And you know my stance on this.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Is, if I'm talking about my kids, please do not
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: compare my experiences to your dog slash pets.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Pet parents. I think it's a fair rant. You okay,
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: you don't like that pet? They don't.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: And I've noticed lately a lot of people are walking
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: their cats.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: Stop it.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: This is it's fucking embarrassing, Like they say, if we
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: were invaded by aliens. First of all, we're picking up
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: dog shit for dogs. Don't think they're in charge. Now
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: we're walking cats, like giving them their exercises. They're born
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: to hunt, they're born to climb and jump and all
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: sorts of shit like this, but don't walk it. The
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: other day I was walking over. I was running down
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: a track in warry Wood, worry Hood as we call
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: it now, and there was a lady pushing a pram.
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: I was like, I just pushing a pram. Look inside,
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: dog and cat. They've got legs.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: Put them on the ground. Take take the cat home first,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: and then take the dog for a walk.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I do find it strange people. I'm like, oh God,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: I don't want to attack the pet parents out there,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: but attack away if you're if your animal cannot, like
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: how far are you walking? That requires your pet to
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: be in a pram, put.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: It down the pram, not the pets, just to be clear.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: But also a friend of mine was winging the the day.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Who's got a kid, and he was like, I'm so tired.
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh, yeah, kids, you know. He was like, no,
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: it's not the kid. Kids. Fine, the dog keeps getting
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: up in the middle.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Of the I and I just I'm not even listening
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: to you anymore, bro, because the dog it's And I
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: get it. My dog gets up all the time and
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: I've got to let it out. But I don't winge
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: about it because there's people out there.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: You did you did earlier mention something about your dog that.
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: Was yeah, but that's because it was being poisoned by
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: my child. So it's different. But also it's like it's
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: not it's not the same. It is not the same.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: And I think, like fair rant, and I could sit
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: here all day, I could have a whole podcast parents.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have to stop you stop me, and
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: I'm going to stop you with a rant from Nick.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Thank you Nick. He's like, have you heard of this
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: thing called pet parents?
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Nick says yes. Nick's rant is when your children store
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: food in their mouth during dinner time and it stays there,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: which means you can't give them a follow up mouthful
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: because they always go ooh.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: The kids are triggered.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: The kids have figured us out.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: They have Macy does that all the time, just like
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: fucking Lola.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: We'll just she'll just wedge it in the side and
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: she'll have one mouthful for like ten minutes. Oh my god,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: and I'm like another mouthful and she's like, like tobacco,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: she pulls it out of a gum.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: What do you mean.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: He'll like, when I'm not looking, he'll be like, so annoying.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: Where's he spitting it back onto the plate?
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Oh savage?
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Do you make him put it back in his mouth?
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: I'm going to try that. Just cue just an idea.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I told you when I was a kid
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: that if we didn't need our dinner, my dad would
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: just put the dinner in our bed.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: That's right, and cover it up with the dinner. And
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: then I go to get in a bed and there's
• 40:50

  Speaker 1: is when the event starts. So Laura went to the
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: event for the full seven to eight forty.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: That's a rookie move. It's like a five minute thing.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: If you if your time it probably she's probably good
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: timing it early.
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: Get it done, but don't stay for an hour.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: You can't because you can't drop the kids off because
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: you're like untill a thirty. The Lord was there with
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: the kids and I was like, I'm not going. And
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: then Laura came home and was like there were so
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: many dads there and I was like, that is a lie.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: I told you she would say that, Oh man, I
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: am good at what I do.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: And then after that I had did the kindy afternoon tea,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: the daycare tea.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: It's just a drag.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: We don't punish us, right, I don't mind. So like
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: for example, Father's Day pizza and puzzle, I don't mind
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: because I'm hungry and I love puzzles. And look, honestly,
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: I don't think I did a single puzzle. I think
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: we built something anyway. And like I think that is
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: like forty five minutes max, dude, like two hours. I'm
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: still sitting there thankfully I have friends, because I don't
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: want to make any new friends, but I have friends.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: And we were all like, who's going to be the
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: first to go?
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: And they were like, and they time it perfectly so
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: that the kids would do like a performance at the end,
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: like a bit of a love that call and response
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: singing yeah, but.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: At the end, and it's like, fucking it's a bit.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: I was like, pretty sure there's lockout laws.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: In Sydney, but and then it's like, okay, well we've
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: had that.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: And then they're like you've got to come in for
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: further day breakfast too, and it's like what the double up?
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: The double never ending?
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: And like you know, like primary school now where we
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: talked about this and am alcohol these events, which is
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: fair enough but not actually it's not fair enough. But
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: and now they're like, yeah, okay, now you've got to
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: go to Father's day this then you go it's just
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: too much, too much, ash Matt. I think it's time
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: for some questions, ash.
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: I think you're right, I'll go to here. I'm going
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: to kick it off. The other week we did the
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: baby products are kind of shit scams. If you will,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: we're going to flip it. And we've asked, what are
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: your top three baby items that you swear by?
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, top three, pa, Number.

• 44:15
  Speaker 2: centered something for.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: You are the baby me.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: It's like I just felt like.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: I felt like when we did have centered pack, everything
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: just smelled like that centered pack, and I was like, no,
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: it's like when you go like you don't you get
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: triggered by a smell.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: That's what What are you gonna do when Macy stops
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: swearing nappies and you no longer require.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Wipes for her anymore? Bro's all right?
• 44:42

  Speaker 1: I refuse a onesie with like a clip button.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: Oh it's good.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: No. The one thing the clip is good for is like,
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: tell me just ripping it off quick.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: That's it. It's a zip. Zip it.
• 45:02

• 45:16
  Speaker 3: like snot hence electric snop sucker.
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: When does it work?
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: Because you know they can't blow their noses. You stick
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: up their nose. It's just like a it's like a vacuum.
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: It's a book a vacuum, that's what it is.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: But that's a product that I would be like, that's
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: a scam.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: No no, because it's like.
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: You sort of pin them down. That sounded wrong. You
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: gotta you got it, you got it. It's kind of
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: like when you had to do a COVID test for
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: a kid.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: It was like trying to get dogs take medication. Same thing.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: If family services are listening Ashwicks.
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: You get to snot sucker hour before they go to
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: bed snot suck bit of say like saline spray.

  Speaker 2: Wow, okay.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Number two for me is far away, Doc a tot
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: excuse me, thank you, doctor tot. Is it's like a
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: pillow in a U shape, so it's got like a
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: flat base, has like a raised like little snake if
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: you will, around in the shape of a U shape,
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: so you can almost put it down any flat surface
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: and that becomes where the baby can sleep.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Bed bed, Like you've got a door, you got a gin.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got a flat surface, you've got a bed
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: yeah boom flat boom.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Okay, I get you, so you can like I'm envisioning it.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: Literally, like when we went traveling with Miley when she
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: was three months old. We didn't some places didn't have
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: like a cot. They're just like what And then we
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: were just we will put the doctor tot on the
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: bed for a nap.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: Wow, there you go. Yeah, you can nap anywhere. They
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: have adult sized ones.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: They actually have really big ones.
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: And number one for me, which is still a staple
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: in my house, white noise machine.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I never got into the white noise, so again for
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: you with the baby, both white.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: I progressed from the white noise to sleep music.
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: Did you ever use brown noise? We've had this chat before. Yeah,
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: there's brown noise.
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: I do have brown noise every morning after roll.
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: That's why they pay you the big But wait, yeah, no,
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: what is brown noise?
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Let's not get into it.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: What's the number one?
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: Number one? This is controversial, but I'm going to stand
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: by it. I think it is the most important product.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: And then there's a lot of parents out there who
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: do not use this product, and if you do, not
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: start using it, because it's an absolute game change to.
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: Doting dad's calendar.
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: Never missed their birthday again unless it's on March twentieth,
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: which twice.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: My number one item for babies. Gonna sound weird, suppositories,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I remember trying to get liquid into a
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: small baby and they just it's a night man and
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: they just spit it right out. And I was like,
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: actually got such a fever.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: Had to do this.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: Okay, if you're not a suppository guy, we've net like,
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: we've never really had to be like maybe once or
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: twice we make this a bit consomma.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: We've seen this ship Panadog.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Put a suppository up there and like it's a game change.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: I was pretty lucky because my kids loved on love ringe,
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: the sert mouth syringe thing newborn. Uh no, but the
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: tip was blowing the face goes down the side, cheek
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: cheeked the further.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: You've got to breath in the face. And my kid
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: was like, funk.
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: Off's a bit like yes, like what are you doing
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: when you blow on the dog's face? Same thing, but look,
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: we've never thankfully, my kids have liked the syringing.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: This call lollly water sweet. That was easy for us.
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I thankfully I haven't had to be a
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: finger up the bum sort of guy very often.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: But if you were apparent out there with a newborn suppositories,
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you there's a little applicator.
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: Though, you don't have to get down the dirty and
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: how else you gonna do it?
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: You gotta quit fingering, well like not in yeah, but
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: like you use your finger and it is like a.
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: Vacuum, isn't it down there? Yeah, I'm stuck it up
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: to luland there you go. It's not liquid. Sorry, I've
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: got a lot of questions. I never really had to
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: do it.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: To do it, they take it out of the wrapper,
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: it's like a little bullets, like a bullet.
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: All right, that's great. Have I got a question for you?
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: I do. This is from La La. What are your
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: thoughts on letting your kids sleep over at other people's houses? Sugar?
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: How old were you when you had your first sleepover?
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: It was definitely primary school? Like his name is Steve
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: and Harry Knuckles. No, sorry, ah, good question.
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: I think I remember. I was pretty lucky because where.
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: We lived, our house backed on too friends that we
• 50:20
  Speaker 3: were all in the same sort.
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: Of class, so it wasn't far, so it wasn't.
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: Far like we would even sometimes we camp in the
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: backyard and stuff.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: Is like I do remember my brother going for his
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: first sleepover and he had to get picked up in
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: the middle of the night. Oh yeah, he did the
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: old midnight pick up.
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: Look, I definitely have done that too as a kid.
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: I recall not all the time.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: I think like I think when I got roped into
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: a sleepover at the poor person's house.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: I try to remember my dad was quite a night hour,
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: so I knew he could come and get me, like
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: I was like, I can't get me. Yeah, but you
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: got to thirteen fourteen, I think things have changed a
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: lot where well, hang on, so you got your kids
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: are so interactive online and stuff at that thirteen fourteen,
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: I don't think they need have sleepovers.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not a huge to.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Sleepover is the dying.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: I just spat all over you. I'm so sorry.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: I actually like that that's what happened to sleepovers.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: So I literally just becoming I don't know what happened.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: Are you saying that sleepovers are the dying? Breee do
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: you think. Do you think in the next generation they'll
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: be like a sleepover is.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: I don't think it really like riding by. You can't
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: have it on the mouth in the house.
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: I think it's like, yeah, I reckon, it's definitely dying out.
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: It was definitely more of a thing. I would say,
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: I don't crossed that bridge when I get there, but
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: I depending on who it is.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: But then also, what do you.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: If they're a tried and tested family, Yeah, it's like
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: the lash ky kid who's like, can you sleepovere?
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: Fuck off? Like who's your please?
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: Plenty Lenny. Yeah, that's cool because do you know very
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: much it's a safe place.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: If it's like her, that's a thing to remember.
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: They used to be sleepover parties, like it was like
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: a birthday party sleepover.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: I wonder if that still happens.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: That's like when you're Yeah, actually that's when you're twelve
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: and thirteen.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: Interesting, Actually, if you do have twelve thirteen year olds
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: currently fourteen, we don't want to hear about it twelve
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: thirteen and then what's your stance on that?
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, is it still happening? Is it still a thing?
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't know because I'm not going to twelve and thirteen.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Year old obviously or am I I'm not. You're making
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of pedophiles.
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: Where I stand, Like I said, I'll cross at bridge,
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: want to get there? It was now okay? If it
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: was now, definitely not and I would think it would be.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: If I if I answer the question how old Oscar
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: primary school?
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: Twelve years old? And it was a close family friend? Okay?
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: Have you what is the rule for knowing the family?
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: The other parents I'm talking hang out with them all
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: the time, Like if we're over, just say, for example,
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: if Mike is over with his kids and Lenny's Lenny
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: and Oscar, like, can Lenny sleep over?
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's the answer, or can Oscar sleepover? Yes?
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: Because that close you have to have at least like
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: ten one on one little playdates with that child and
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: have experience going out with the family.
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, for sure.
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: If it was like a gin, it's just easy to
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: say no, isn't it.
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Because there's all sorts of things.
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: Even if I think where I would stand is where
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: the parent where if Oscar's like can Lenny sleep over?
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: That you can stamp that out right there. It can
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: be like Oscar, I don't think it's good idea.
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: No, when older? Wait what now? No?
• 53:48
  Speaker 3: I think twelve, I think twelve years old, twelve, you can.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Go over the benchmark.
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you could go. You could have you could probably
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: reason with the with the kids, and you would trust
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: the family because I mean, yeah, but if it was
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: like a brand new friend, it was like, no, that's right.
• 54:04
  Speaker 3: Stand But like I said, we'll cross that when we
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: get there. So I don't want to think about it.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: Now. What do you think? Where are you going? What
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: are you thinking about it?
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: I think it's a tricky one because you're like, oh god,
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: I don't want to burden another family as well with
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: my child, you know, as much as I want to
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: get rid of them.
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you.
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: I think I think looking back, I must have been
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: about twelve or maybe eleven. I feel like I feel
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: like when you get to the age of twelve, But
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: there has to be like we have to give a
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: rigid what's the word I'm looking for. There has to
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: be a rigid process for like knowing that that family
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: is great, they're safe, Yeah, for sure, they're not weirdos.
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like a checklist.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think like if there's a family that we've
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: had a holiday with like that, that's a level, that's
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: a level of friendship that I would then feel comfortable
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: in letting my child once they're like eleven or twelve
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: to then have a sleepover.
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: I think if someone's like, can I Oscar have a sleepover?
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: The like, can you take the rest of them as well?
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: At the Dove, April's chuck ma in there, patrol blowing,
