- 4:13Speaker 1: It was. It was a lot. It was a lot.
- 4:15Speaker 3: There's a lot of pain behind his eyes.
- 4:17Speaker 1: It was a lot for three nights, Like the night
- 4:21Speaker 1: before I went, I was like, my doe. I was
- 4:24Speaker 1: going to travel eighteen hours for three nights in Vegas.
- 4:27Speaker 3: Did you get the upgrade? Nah?
- 4:30Speaker 1: Look, I the flight over is fine because it's I
- 4:34Speaker 1: left in the middle of the day. So it's like
- 4:35Speaker 1: it's pretty much just like an Aarvo drinking session on
- 4:38Speaker 1: a plane. That's pretty much all it is. By yourself. Yeah,
- 4:41Speaker 1: that had an American couple next to me and they're like,
- 4:43Speaker 1: this guy can stack aways some beers. Did you have
- 4:45Speaker 1: a quick chat? Yeah, I had a quick chat.
- 4:46Speaker 3: I bet it was riveting for them.
- 4:52Speaker 1: And then it's always awking.
- 4:55Speaker 2: I just say, it's always awkward if you start the
- 4:57Speaker 2: chat too early on, it's hard to know when to breakaway.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:01Speaker 3: I just got on really drunk and there's all systems go.
- 5:05Speaker 1: I was respectful. I watched my own things and then
- 5:08Speaker 1: we chated a little bit.
- 5:10Speaker 2: How you have to preface it, like, I was very
- 5:12Speaker 2: respectful in the flood, Everything's okay.
- 5:16Speaker 1: I was considerate. I was considerate drunk they're now Canadians
- 5:21Speaker 1: fucking But no, it was good. It was a long
- 5:24Speaker 1: it's a long way as you as you know, and
- 5:26Speaker 1: like on the way back, I was lucky. I got
- 5:28Speaker 1: two spare seeds and slept for like ten hours. But
- 5:31Speaker 1: the coldest plane I've ever been on. I looked to
- 5:34Speaker 1: the across the aisle and there's a lady there.
- 5:36Speaker 3: Look.
- 5:36Speaker 1: She looked like, you know, homeless man. They got heaps
- 5:37Speaker 1: of blankets over their shoulders and they're like, that was freezing,
- 5:41Speaker 1: And it was like, would you say anything? Would you
- 5:44Speaker 1: make me say change the temperature in the whole plane.
- 5:46Speaker 2: Maybe someone bumped the Maybe the air hostess bumped the
- 5:50Speaker 2: like control panel and set it to like seventeen instead
- 5:52Speaker 2: of twenty one.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Maybe I reckon they did it on purpose, because you
- 5:55Speaker 1: united help.
- 5:57Speaker 3: What do they call them again?
- 6:02Speaker 1: Not help? Just stand in the barrel and go helper,
- 6:09Speaker 1: bring me a drink? Help, fabi, some great young help
- 6:12Speaker 1: a woman over that not young? All. I noticed that
- 6:17Speaker 1: the demographic are quite old and they're so grumpy. So
- 6:23Speaker 1: why is that? You're like, can? I found myself trying
- 6:25Speaker 1: to be so overly nice, and then I was like
- 6:29Speaker 1: fuck this, And then I was just like, but mus
- 6:35Speaker 1: for a drink. It's honestly like you're asking for like
- 6:37Speaker 1: the newborn child. They're like, okay, here it is. That's
- 6:40Speaker 1: like I'm asking him to land the plane like mid air, like,
- 6:43Speaker 1: just get me a drink. I know.
- 6:45Speaker 3: It's like probably because they do.
- 6:46Speaker 2: They shout out to all the hostesses out there working
- 6:49Speaker 2: incredibly hard.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Except United. Well they obviously work at a job, like
- 6:52Speaker 1: especially the Americans, but they don't get tip for that job, right.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Oh yeah that much?
- 6:56Speaker 1: Do they expect a tip? Maybe they do.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Maybe they're like that guy and seat number twenty three,
- 7:00Speaker 2: a's not tipping us.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Wow, that's the case. I owe a lot of fighters.
- 7:04Speaker 1: It's a lot of money. I saw the biggest Peters

- 7:14Speaker 1: of beautiful, fancy hotels and you got MGM, you got Caesars.

- 7:22Speaker 1: at a building like that's a building, but you go
- 7:23Speaker 1: to Vegas and you look at the building, you're like, whoa,
- 7:25Speaker 1: look at that. You know, it's got a architectural marvels.
- 7:29Speaker 1: It's a bit tacky, but it's like it's it's.
- 7:31Speaker 3: Always trying to be polite to the Americans. I don't
- 7:34Speaker 3: obviously dip them.
- 7:35Speaker 2: I mean like even the what's the one with the
- 7:38Speaker 2: fountains at the front, blag the blu It was.

- 8:20Speaker 1: giant penis? It was in one of the building windows.
- 8:24Speaker 1: So you come around the corner. We come around the corner.
- 8:26Speaker 1: There's a place called the Lynx, which is like a
- 8:28Speaker 1: really old building in the middle of the street, looks
- 8:32Speaker 1: so out of place, like it's.
- 8:33Speaker 3: It's due for a knockdown.
- 8:34Speaker 1: It must be like a heritage listed it's like that.
- 8:38Speaker 3: You're like, you come around the corner.
- 8:39Speaker 1: That's building anyway, it's got none of the windows are tinted.

- 16:53Speaker 1: It's all about football, of course, but it's a bit

- 16:58Speaker 1: And then we have a host, which one of you.
- 17:00Speaker 1: I am definitely not an expert. I'm an arm chair.
- 17:02Speaker 1: I'm the sort of guy who was still on the

- 17:06Speaker 1: drops the ball, he goes. I would have called that like.
- 17:09Speaker 3: That sort of ship.

- 17:22Speaker 1: update of three things good. Three things I would like
- 17:25Speaker 1: to talk to you about. One is just very quick
- 17:28Speaker 1: wondering how many hats you have lost at school so far?
- 17:33Speaker 1: None different with boys and girls, I think, Okay, go on, okay,
- 17:38Speaker 1: because girls have hair and you have to put it
- 17:42Speaker 1: into different sort of ponytail and stuff.
- 17:44Speaker 3: The hat doesn't sit right.
- 17:46Speaker 2: No, I don't really do my han anymore. She just
- 17:48Speaker 2: wants it to be free. You know she haven't lost this.
- 17:50Speaker 2: SAT's terrible for knits, dude. Oh man, the knits don't
- 17:54Speaker 2: care if it's in a ponytail or not. Then they're
- 17:56Speaker 2: going to attack. They have the knits won't go Oh,
- 17:58Speaker 2: hang on a second, that braider.
- 18:00Speaker 1: No, no, it's all about the hair moving and touching
- 18:02Speaker 1: other people. Who was telling you this? It's science from
- 18:06Speaker 1: like what? Okay?
- 18:07Speaker 3: Well, just what report? I don't know if the top
- 18:10Speaker 3: of my head.
- 18:10Speaker 1: It's from sir head last we can figure it out,
- 18:14Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure that's how it works. But anyway,
- 18:16Speaker 1: so like it sits quite snug on Oscar's head, right.
- 18:19Speaker 1: But I know when I put a hat on Macy,
- 18:22Speaker 1: I turn around. It's like, where's that fucking hat gone?
- 18:24Speaker 1: Because it doesn't seem we've lost three we've lost three hat,
- 18:27Speaker 1: we've lost three. She's selling them, dude, you reckon?
- 18:30Speaker 2: She is well, and I'm like, can you go to
- 18:32Speaker 2: lost property in check? And she's like, where is that?
- 18:34Speaker 2: And I'm like, you have to ask your teacher, ask
- 18:36Speaker 2: your teacher where it is? Anyway, three hats and a
- 18:38Speaker 2: water bottle. I see, I see how that by secondhand uniforms.
- 18:44Speaker 3: Yeah, five bucks. Yeah, it knew is a fools game.
- 18:47Speaker 4: I know.
- 18:47Speaker 1: The hat thing is annoying because I have Oscar's come
- 18:50Speaker 1: home with two hats, Kai, come and pick your hat up. Actually,
- 18:57Speaker 1: Molly to come home with a beautiful metal water bottle.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Well that's val you're yeah.
- 19:01Speaker 2: I was like, well that's that's that's like forty bucks.
- 19:04Speaker 2: That's like thirty bucks.
- 19:05Speaker 1: Well yeah, I bought the kids water bottle, remember, and
- 19:08Speaker 1: they stitched me up. It was like seventy bucks a
- 19:10Speaker 1: water bottle from where Smiggle mat Camut came out. Give
- 19:15Speaker 1: them the microplastics, they're great. The beach ash Yes, I'm
- 19:20Speaker 1: familiar Sands water.
- 19:22Speaker 2: For those of you who made up be familiar, I
- 19:24Speaker 2: was I was away in the jungle for a while.
- 19:30Speaker 2: You were thirty days plus a week prior, so it was,
- 19:34Speaker 2: you know, almost forty days.
- 19:35Speaker 1: You're going a long time.
- 19:36Speaker 2: So I've I've come back and my memory has completely
- 19:39Speaker 2: played tricks on me. I've well, I've just I've forgotten
- 19:42Speaker 2: how hard parenting is, and I've forgotten activities which make
- 19:47Speaker 2: parenting even harder. Beach is one of them beaches that
- 19:51Speaker 2: is a minefield.
- 19:52Speaker 1: Oh that is like great, great to get out of
- 19:56Speaker 1: the house, great to stack up a few hours, great
- 19:58Speaker 1: to tie the kids out. But let's be honest here,
- 20:01Speaker 1: the beach is an absolute fucking nightmare. It's look, it's
- 20:07Speaker 1: getting ready to go nightmare on the way nightmare, nightmare,
- 20:12Speaker 1: getting there, nightmare, parking parking nightmare, just so much gear,
- 20:17Speaker 1: getting out nightmare. Then the worst party is getting them
- 20:21Speaker 1: in the car full of sand.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Ah And do you know what happened? Yes, BONDI very busy, right,
- 20:28Speaker 2: everyone is on top of It's just like one big
- 20:32Speaker 2: orgy on the beach there.
- 20:33Speaker 3: I'm listening.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Just quickly.
- 20:37Speaker 2: What I mean, It depends on how busy the beach is.
- 20:39Speaker 2: But what do you think is the appropriate distance between towels.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Like strangers towels. Yeah, oh I think there are man
- 20:46Speaker 1: your arm.
- 20:47Speaker 3: Yeah, so like a meter and a half maybe.
- 20:49Speaker 1: Maybe two meter and then one more of people.
- 20:52Speaker 3: They were they were like on each other.
- 20:55Speaker 2: I put my towel down and then the towel is
- 20:58Speaker 2: touching my towel and I don't want to be that
- 21:00Speaker 2: guy saying excuse me, but our towers are touching.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Yeah, like that's not allowed.
- 21:04Speaker 1: There's no I don't know.
- 21:05Speaker 3: There shouldn't be any toawl crossover.
- 21:07Speaker 2: No towel cross if you're crossing over someone else's.
- 21:10Speaker 1: Tower, unless the wind accidentally waft wafts it.
- 21:14Speaker 2: But even even if your towel is close enough to
- 21:16Speaker 2: be wafted by the wind over to your.
- 21:18Speaker 3: Towel, that's too close. Yeah, Like it's nightmare.
- 21:20Speaker 2: So we're walking down and it's very hard to you know,
- 21:24Speaker 2: it's you're trying to like dodge all the people. Don't
- 21:27Speaker 2: have the buggy, no time for that. Got the I
- 21:30Speaker 2: got the big pram, big pram, load the big pram up,
- 21:32Speaker 2: big bag. Then like we have to track from the ramp,
- 21:36Speaker 2: drop the pram off, then trek across the beach, and
- 21:40Speaker 2: it's it's an arduous journey. You know you're dodging people.
- 21:43Speaker 2: And I said to one of my children, I don't
- 21:44Speaker 2: want to call them out, but I said to them,
- 21:47Speaker 2: just be really careful because they're you know, they're not
- 21:50Speaker 2: lifting their feet, they're just kicking the sound. Just be
- 21:52Speaker 2: really careful. We don't want to kick sound on people.
- 21:55Speaker 2: And then one of my children had that information, looked
- 21:59Speaker 2: at me, walked up to a woman who was some
- 22:01Speaker 2: baking and just kick sand right in her face.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Do you know what that whoever made nameless would have
- 22:08Speaker 1: heard you say when you say don't kick sand or
- 22:11Speaker 1: they would have heard was Kicksand I was like, that's
- 22:14Speaker 1: all they would have heard. Just like just went up
- 22:16Speaker 1: went up to why. I don't know. I'm like, what
- 22:19Speaker 1: is fucking wrong with you?
- 22:20Speaker 2: Just went up to a woman just she was having
- 22:23Speaker 2: a great time relaxing on the beach and just got
- 22:25Speaker 2: an absolute footful of sand in her face.
- 22:28Speaker 1: And she's there going like what the hell? I know
- 22:31Speaker 1: which child this well?
- 22:32Speaker 2: And then I'm going, I'm so so sorry that was
- 22:35Speaker 2: That was not me, that was my wife.
- 22:36Speaker 1: I should have doubled down and just give her a
- 22:38Speaker 1: big matty j flipper full of sand.
- 22:40Speaker 2: I was like, I want to make peace here anyway
- 22:42Speaker 2: I know which child it was. And then and then
- 22:44Speaker 2: also reading between the lines, my children are a really
- 22:47Speaker 2: difficult age right now where they've just started to like waves.
- 22:52Speaker 2: Like before they were petrified of waves. Obviously small waves,
- 22:55Speaker 2: they quite like it. But as we're like waist deep
- 22:59Speaker 2: in the water, sometimes your odd rogue wave would come,
- 23:02Speaker 2: which set, yeah, like a bomb set, which is like
- 23:05Speaker 2: almost head height for my my children. As this bomb
- 23:08Speaker 2: set comes, I then, moments before impact, I then lift
- 23:12Speaker 2: the child up to save them, and that's met with
- 23:15Speaker 2: don't fucking touch me.
- 23:19Speaker 3: And I'm like, I just let him have it.
- 23:22Speaker 2: So dude, after two bomb sets and being yelled at
- 23:25Speaker 2: by my daughters, I'm like, do you know what you
- 23:28Speaker 2: can you can cop this.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Here's a life lesson.
- 23:31Speaker 2: And like this wave came, monster wave, like big bumming
- 23:35Speaker 2: out the back and we're only like, well again waist deep.
- 23:37Speaker 2: So it's whitewash at this point, and it comes in
- 23:40Speaker 2: and I'm like looking at looking at my daughter, looking
- 23:43Speaker 2: at this wave, looking at my daughter, and I'm like, well,
- 23:48Speaker 2: you're gonna get what you asked for. Praise for impact, God,
- 23:53Speaker 2: steam away, and then like feet are like tumbling in
- 23:58Speaker 2: the air. I then I went over and a skid them.
- 24:00Speaker 2: But I pick them up out of the water and.
- 24:02Speaker 1: They're like, ah, why didn't you get me? Or it's
- 24:06Speaker 1: usually met me. I hate the bitch. I want to
- 24:09Speaker 1: go home. I'm like, what do you want? What is it?
- 24:13Speaker 1: I can't pick you up, I can't let you get
- 24:15Speaker 1: hit by a wave, Like, what do you want from me?
- 24:18Speaker 2: Also just going to say I love my kids, really,
- 24:21Speaker 2: I love them. It's like it's they don't know what
- 24:25Speaker 2: they want. You're trying to get them out of danger's way.
- 24:28Speaker 2: They don't know that that's danger until you've done the
- 24:31Speaker 2: right thing.
- 24:31Speaker 1: So then I'm like, I want them to know that
- 24:33Speaker 1: the waves can waves are not your friend. Don't underestimate
- 24:37Speaker 1: the ocean, dude. Anyway, I came back and I was
- 24:40Speaker 1: just like that was well, they just like full of sands. Yeah,
- 24:43Speaker 1: they you know, they were hungry and they were you know. Anyway,
- 24:46Speaker 1: I did the same thing with Oscar, but on a
- 24:48Speaker 1: on a like a foamy surfboard. He was like, I
- 24:51Speaker 1: was pushing onto these tiny it was like I'm talking
- 24:54Speaker 1: the size of an iPhone wash just so that you
- 24:57Speaker 1: could get yeah, lovely, lovely and he was like, oh,
- 25:00Speaker 1: I want bigger I want a bigger one. I was like, okay, bro,
- 25:03Speaker 1: here you go and push him on one like double
- 25:04Speaker 1: the size and it just nosed dup flung him. The
- 25:09Speaker 1: guy took off the beach. He's just like, I'm like, where.
- 25:14Speaker 4: Are you running?
- 25:15Speaker 1: We live that way. Eventually you turn around and came
- 25:19Speaker 1: back and then had to go see mom, hate hate
- 25:22Speaker 1: the water, the surfboard. Then I just I continue, I know, yeah,
- 25:27Speaker 1: I continue to continue to do the same thing to Macie's.
- 25:32Speaker 1: But she isn't a big floating jacket. Well, when you're
- 25:34Speaker 1: shutting these kids across the beach, this isn't a big
- 25:36Speaker 1: floating jacket. So she just rolled on top of the water.
- 25:40Speaker 1: But yeah, I hate the beach now. I hate the beach.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Hate the beach. And also to go back to your
- 25:45Speaker 1: point about how close the towers are right, yeah, going
- 25:49Speaker 1: we're just gone out of school holidays, which you know
- 25:52Speaker 1: is a terrible time to go.
- 25:53Speaker 3: To the beach.
- 25:53Speaker 1: It's the time that you want to go and the
- 25:55Speaker 1: time that everyone else wants to go. So it's just chaos.
- 25:59Speaker 1: We're down the beach nowan beach and there's a big
- 26:01Speaker 1: rock wall and we sit up against the rock wall
- 26:04Speaker 1: that there's a lagoon that runs into the ocean and
- 26:07Speaker 1: then it goes in and out, in and out.
- 26:09Speaker 3: And it's like a bit rapidly. And then there's also.
- 26:11Speaker 1: Some deeper spots with the kids, but there's not a
- 26:14Speaker 1: lot of sand.
- 26:15Speaker 2: For anyone who's unfamiliar. Look at ashes stories on the
- 26:18Speaker 2: weekend and you'll see now being like, which is beautiful.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Oh, it's lovely when it's gorgeous when it's open. When
- 26:22Speaker 1: it's not open, it's like a big stinky puddle. But
- 26:26Speaker 1: it's probably like from me to the wall away, there's
- 26:29Speaker 1: a couple of meters in terms of sand. And where
- 26:31Speaker 1: I sat here in a spot, people sat, you know,
- 26:35Speaker 1: and this family with a tent came and sat within
- 26:40Speaker 1: ten centimeters of where my feet are, like a full tent,
- 26:44Speaker 1: so they're completely obstructed. Just move in, yeah, just move
- 26:49Speaker 1: to my fucking house wives. And they've obstructed the view
- 26:55Speaker 1: and then the tent that he even moved my towel
- 26:58Speaker 1: corner to put the tent.
- 27:00Speaker 2: Come on, bro, come on, like, who has the audacity
- 27:04Speaker 2: to move someone else's tower?
- 27:05Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? No? And I said, oh, good thing,
- 27:08Speaker 1: we'll leave him.
- 27:10Speaker 3: What did he say? He just laughed, like giggled, like
- 27:12Speaker 3: he was like nervous.
- 27:13Speaker 1: How do you where do you get that level of arrogance.
- 27:17Speaker 1: It's more like self awareness. Some people have zero self
- 27:21Speaker 1: awareness whatsoever. Like just have a scaup of it. You
- 27:24Speaker 1: may as well.
- 27:25Speaker 2: You may as well just move into someone's house, like
- 27:27Speaker 2: knock on the door, come through with like eski and
- 27:30Speaker 2: have lunch in the backyard.
- 27:31Speaker 1: That generation, it's it's like my parents. They will make
- 27:34Speaker 1: my parents generation where my mom so I moved into
- 27:37Speaker 1: my father in law's house. I don't have told you
- 27:38Speaker 1: the story, and Mom goes, do you mind if we
- 27:40Speaker 1: park a caravan at the front? I was like, yeah, mum,
- 27:43Speaker 1: you want to park a fucking caravan? And I saw
- 27:46Speaker 1: at the front of my father in law's house. Have
- 27:50Speaker 1: some self awareness, like you have told me this story
- 27:52Speaker 1: four times? Yes, sorry, but like that's what I mean.
- 27:54Speaker 1: It's that generation. I just you talking about the tower
- 27:58Speaker 1: and I really got me. I'm going to say on
- 28:01Speaker 1: the weekend, the culprit was my age. Oh yeah, it's
- 28:05Speaker 1: but it's it's all generations. It's an issue. It's an
- 28:08Speaker 1: issue that's been neglected. We have an election coming up.
- 28:10Speaker 1: I'm just saying, well, there was that whole cool cabana
- 28:13Speaker 1: thing that went mental. I want to I want to
- 28:16Speaker 1: the hornet's nest. Taking a cool cobanna to the beach
- 28:19Speaker 1: is like taking a carport to the beach.
- 28:21Speaker 3: It's the same thing.
- 28:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm going to have to start doing
- 28:24Speaker 2: it because the towe is not strong.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Enough a perimeter. Build a note.
- 28:29Speaker 2: No, people are disregarding that. Back in my day, the
- 28:33Speaker 2: towel was was the perimeter. Like people would look at
- 28:36Speaker 2: the towel as being like, that's your land. People disregard
- 28:40Speaker 2: the towel. Now no one gives any respect to the towel.
- 28:42Speaker 2: People only respect the cool cabana.
- 28:44Speaker 1: You should roll over onto their towel, like, hey.
- 28:47Speaker 2: I started eating their snacks, bring those strawberries over here,
- 28:51Speaker 2: but their sun cream started kissing his wife and I
- 28:54Speaker 2: was like, yeah, is that.
- 28:56Speaker 1: How do you feel? That's how I feel when your
- 28:58Speaker 1: towel approaches on my town.
- 29:00Speaker 2: It's the only way they'll learn. One of the things
- 29:02Speaker 2: happened as well. It's quite exciting. It's a big milestone,
- 29:07Speaker 2: big milestone in the Johnson Burn household. You no, Well,
- 29:12Speaker 2: it's exciting because where.

- 29:34Speaker 2: of no wheeze, then dry nappy in the morning.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Yeah, And so every time we have a dry nappy
- 29:40Speaker 1: it was like whoo.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Like big celebration, big song and dance. She was really excited.
- 29:46Speaker 2: And then and also said a lot of money. Nappies
- 29:49Speaker 2: aren't cheap. Oh yeah, and it's a bloody nightmad terrible
- 29:51Speaker 2: for the environment. Not that that's stopped me using them.

- 30:48Speaker 1: now at every every turn, they're growing up.
- 30:50Speaker 3: But then like first night no nappies.
- 30:53Speaker 1: Pissed the bed.
- 30:54Speaker 2: But it worked out perfectly because she rolled off the
- 30:57Speaker 2: bed and then Pete, there's a little rugs she peed
- 31:01Speaker 2: on the run.
- 31:02Speaker 1: Yeah, on the rug. So she was like, Daddy and
- 31:04Speaker 1: I went up there and she's like, I need to
- 31:06Speaker 1: get changed.
- 31:07Speaker 2: And I was like, this is a great result because
- 31:10Speaker 2: the time it takes to change the bed, they then
- 31:12Speaker 2: wake up even more.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Everyone is pretty much awake.
- 31:15Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was like, I'll just put a towel
- 31:16Speaker 2: down and drive that rug right up, beautiful, it's fine,
- 31:19Speaker 2: love that It's fine. But then Lola started doing this thing.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Is she still heavy on the waters? She does?
- 31:28Speaker 3: Okay? Her sleep routine is a bit strange. Okay.
- 31:33Speaker 2: So she has a water bottle but has to have
- 31:37Speaker 2: it hot yep, Okay, Well, there's a certain temperature it
- 31:40Speaker 2: has to be not too hot to touch. She almost
- 31:42Speaker 2: has it as a comforter. So she wants a warm
- 31:44Speaker 2: water bottle when she sleeps, right, that's rule number one. Yeah, okay,
- 31:49Speaker 2: rule number two. This has only started happening since I've
- 31:52Speaker 2: been away. She doesn't have a pillow anymore. She's very
- 31:57Speaker 2: particular with her senses.
- 31:59Speaker 3: So there's three issues my wife would call them.
- 32:01Speaker 2: Yeah, So she doesn't have a pillow. She has like
- 32:03Speaker 2: one of those soft felt blankets which is folded up
- 32:06Speaker 2: in the shape of a pillow.
- 32:08Speaker 3: That's what she sleeps on. Right, it's rule number two.
- 32:12Speaker 3: That's weird.
- 32:12Speaker 2: So rule number one, just to reiterate hot water bottle,
- 32:16Speaker 2: which is a water bottle. Well number two, blanket, pillow.
- 32:19Speaker 2: Rule number three, she sleeps on her block of cement.
- 32:22Speaker 2: She can't use a duvet as.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Agree to disagree. That's another argument. So she now gets
- 32:33Speaker 1: going on this one.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Then now just has a a crocheted blanket. And when
- 32:38Speaker 2: she has the crocheted blanket like Nana's blanket, Nana's blanket.
- 32:41Speaker 2: When she has on her it has to be up
- 32:44Speaker 2: to her like her shoulder, Oh my god, and then
- 32:47Speaker 2: has to be completely flat like all the edges all around.
- 32:51Speaker 1: It's a vampires. She sleeps on a side.
- 32:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 32:55Speaker 1: If there's any ripple in the blanket, she's like, there's
- 32:58Speaker 1: a ripple, yeah, and have to have to smooth out
- 33:01Speaker 1: the blanketed fuck. Kid's a weird.
- 33:03Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, that's that's my daughter.
- 33:05Speaker 1: They are how they are weird. You can't well, that
- 33:09Speaker 1: is all weird. All of those things are all weird.
- 33:11Speaker 1: I don't know what you want to say.
- 33:12Speaker 2: So that's how she sleeps now, And I'm like, do
- 33:14Speaker 2: I start to push back on these things?
- 33:16Speaker 1: No?
- 33:17Speaker 2: Do I just unless you want to lose some sleep,
- 33:20Speaker 2: do I just take the path of this resistance. Luckily
- 33:22Speaker 2: she'll if the blanket raffles up in the middle of
- 33:25Speaker 2: the night, she's fine, but going to sleep. She still
- 33:29Speaker 2: got the dummy, yeah, yes, and that's also everyone before
- 33:32Speaker 2: the dummy. Still we'll get next week. Get where the
- 33:36Speaker 2: dummy again. I remember what happened last night.
- 33:39Speaker 1: But yeah, it's weird. They pick up these little bits
- 33:42Speaker 1: and pieces like they comfort things. Right, they all have
- 33:46Speaker 1: like oh, they doesn't really have that. She's just Lola
- 33:48Speaker 1: because I had I've busted Macie. Actually I busted. She's
- 33:54Speaker 1: been busted. So like all of our kids books, right,

- 34:06Speaker 1: But she also likes to then take the book we've
- 34:07Speaker 1: read to bed. I have no problems with that, but
- 34:10Speaker 1: I had noticed over like a few months that every
- 34:14Speaker 1: book has bits.
- 34:15Speaker 3: Of it missing.
- 34:17Speaker 2: She rips out pages, he rips out the flaps, he
- 34:19Speaker 2: rips out I love full pages, just bits of something

- 40:41Speaker 1: for the afternoon visitors. Very good, classic, that's just a
- 40:46Speaker 1: well thought out lie. Mainly especially if you've got kids
- 40:50Speaker 1: like Macy still naps. She's was useless and it's like
- 40:54Speaker 1: trying to get them home, like they got to shut
- 40:55Speaker 1: the park.
