• 2:48
  Speaker 2: a gazelle.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I was in a paper of an article about someone else,

  Speaker 3: but it was my pictures of that pretty much, and
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: I had like, also, Ashwicks plays, that's pretty much.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I have no idea what the lunchbox is for Marley
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: and Lola. One thing I'm a little bit nervous about
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I at the time of recording, I'm yet to get
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: a uniform full Lola. And I'm also I'm so quiet
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: in the WhatsApp group.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I'm so quiet because I'm not in it, and I've.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Been wanting to ask when does the uniform shop open?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: But I'll be scared.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: You don't want to be that guy. They're like, we've
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: already got them, and they're like, oh, what have I missed?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: So I haven't yet.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: It does beg the question, Matthew, please, what have people
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: found in their kids' bags?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, after the marathon break that is the Christmas holidays,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: I can't anymore. Gosh, I mean it's nearly over. Like
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: imagine a ham sandwich in there after weeks in the
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: heat of the Australian summer.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: We should get my mom back in because I definitely
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: was a culprit.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I would leave anything in my everything.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: I think when I was in high school, I found
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: something that in their food in there that was like
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: weeks old, and before I could let anyone else find,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: I'd just been the whole bag and just I just
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: coughed that I lost it because that was less embarrassing
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: and less like to be like, because Mum would have
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: sent me to school with a stinky bag, and then
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: I'd be the stinky bag kid, and then I would
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: have never recovered from it, and now I'd be an
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: adult now reliving the trauma of stinky bag kids.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: See how I made the right call, Ash, We have
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: a bit to get through in housekeeping. Actually. Firstly, firstly,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: if you are watching this either on socials or on
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: the YouTube, we are not at my kitchen table at
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: the moment.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: There has been a shift in location, a geographical shift,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: one would call it.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Well, I made the mistake of not realizing that we
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: have the babysitter who was working today. She is looking
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: after Poppy.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Beryl's name right.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Bert, we'll call it Beryl. I love that name. And
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh, yeah, that's going to be a
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: bit of a nightmare for her to have to get
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: a upstairs and be quiet with a newborn for like
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: four months old for four hours as we fat around
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: and record this, or like b can go her out
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: of the house and then Laura will you can't do that?
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: So we're at a studio.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: We are at a studio for the meantime until there,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, for now, we'll just see how it goes.

• 5:15
  Speaker 2: you the purple backdrop. It looks very good your end.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: You look great behind the green. Are you just saying
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: that he's just a great dad around You're just saying.

• 6:39
  Speaker 2: the night's accommodation at the QT. It's the qt's that's nice.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Do we know anyone in camera?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I don't think we do.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: That's gold completely forgot about.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think we do.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: It's funny, Matt. I branched out. Go on, I saw
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: a musical.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I saw the Book of Mormon on the weekend. Not
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: for me.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: You're the first person I've ever heard to not enjoy
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the Book.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: Of Four people in front of me left. Let me
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: just preface this by saying the performances and all that.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: That's not my.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Scripe, okay, because they were the effort and how much
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: goes into that respect that respect, the work, the hard work.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: But it's more a personal preference. Too much music, too
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: much clapping. What do you mean you've got to clap?
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I want my movies, movies and music separate, okay, to
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: blend them together. There's a couple of things I noticed
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: with musicals, and I am sorry if I offend anyone
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: by not liking musicals, because we know what the crowd's like.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not a big musical kind of guy.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: You I feel like you've probably seen more than me.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I think I've been to two music.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Well that's one more than me.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I thought it was funny with what I've been I
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: haven't seen it, but there was some funny.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: But it's like they turned a baptism into a sexual
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: vibe because it's his first time baptizing and she's never
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: been baptized.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: And that's your kind of comedy.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: I really like that bit. Yeah, there's a lot of
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: hip thrusting in that bit, and I'm all about that.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, But it was sort of like musicals, they just sing,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: what's happening. Yep, okay, and then that.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: My mom my. Mom's always like, well, why are they singing?
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: They do have to sing that part. I'm like, that's music.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: It's a musical.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I get that. I understand. Yeah, yeah, but they like
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: also they do every at the end of every song,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: it's like a.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Like they finish, right, huh, and then everyone claps and
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: then the music starts again while they shift things around.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, look, I'm not really into this.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Must have been there must have been like a very
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: clappy crowd. I went to Chicago, not much clapping until
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: the very end. Okay, maybe there was like a crowd
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: of people who clap on planes and they all somehow
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: ended up in the theater.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: That's it. That's what happened. It was of people who
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: clap on planes.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: What's on the agenda tonight? We're going to go clap
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: and ruin a musical for someone else?
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: You got a bad crowd.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: It was very long, I will say, it's just it
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: goes for It's like two and a half hours with
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: a break in the middle, and you know me.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: A break in the middle, you would have been let
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: let's leave.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: I April really enjoyed it, and you know that's all
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: that really makes he's a dancer. Too much music for starters,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: too much clapping, and you know, because it's written by
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: the South Park guys, right, which they tend to go Okay, well,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: something is funny. How do we push that to its
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: absolute limits?
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: To its Here we go. It was the silliest thing
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen, just full style.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: You're a silly guy.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I know, I'm not.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: I was excited to see it.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: It just wasn't for me.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you've seen ash. I've been slammed
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: online again, samed online who let me add well, I
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: was on Life on Cut recently.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: So I was women instantly scared himself. I've never met Matt.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I owned up to the fact that I didn't know
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: that a pad attaches to the underwear. I thought the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: pad with skin. I thought it was like a band aid.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: You're a very normal man, thank you.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Can I also just defend myself for a hot second
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: and say, the reason I don't know any of this
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: stuff is because I received no sexual education from my
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: high school. They didn't give us anything nothing.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I got kicked out of our sex head class.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Did you know the pad?
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: No, no, So what did you find out? It was
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: a trend.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: There was a trend going around of men who are
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: all idiots who we just didn't know. And then it
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: became we became the laughing song. We were shamed for
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: not knowing.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: I'm being shamed right now.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that sucks.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's not your fault. It's not my fault.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I told you a story about the sex said class
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: I took go on.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: It was at a Catholic school in which my mum
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: faked that I was Catholic to be in so great start.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: The teacher said, do you know what the best form
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: of safe sex is? And I said, before anyone could
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: say anything, you pull it out?
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: And he how old are you at the time?
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Fifteen? Far out the nerve nerve and he went red.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: He was like, get it out, it's abstinence.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Did you know what you were doing?
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know much of what my mouth is doing
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: until after it happened.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: It's just part of it.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question to put you on
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: the spot, Okay? Can a woman urine eight with a
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: tampon inside of her?
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Yes? How I don't want to be too crass, please
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: separate hole.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: Do you know how I learned that from the comments
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: of a video about someone who didn't know where the
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: pad went, not even kidding. I went to the comments like,
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: surely not. But then there was the top one and
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: it was like, can women we a with a tampon it?
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: And I was like no, And then I read the
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: rebuttal of those comments and it was yes, Can.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: I defend myself for a second, Yes, we should probably
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: know this information as standard, but no one had taught
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: me when I was younger, and for me, it's non critical.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: It is I'm raising a family right now.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: You were taught like what rhombuses?
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Have you ever used that word or thought about a parallelogram?
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Never?
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: What the fuck is that word? A parallelogram?
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Excuse me, I made it up. It's a thing. It's
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: a thing. Yeah, I think people. People, A few people
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: are saying, majority of laughing. A few people said, this
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: is sad. Oh I can't. I can't help.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: But I don't know exactly.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: You only know what you know, and if you don't know, ignorance,
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: ignorance is bliss.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: So we're all learning today, and I learned as well.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: In a similar.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Sphere, of what you're learning is that I have learned
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: that my wife puts her period cycle, if you will,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: in the family calendar.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: So is it always on the seventh or like what?
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: No, because it does?
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: It's months aren't perfect four weeks or the cycles aren't perfect?
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I think I don't know.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: That's yeah, so I found that out, and I don't
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: know what the reason behind it is. It might be
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: a warning to be like so you know, yeah, I
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: don't mean sexual, I just mean mood.
• 13:17

  Speaker 1: It must be nice.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: I haven't been there over a decade, was it. I
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: think it's been fifteen Yearsah.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Because it was.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like it was known as like the
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Florida where it was like everyone would retire a.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Lot of retirees. But like my uncle uncle Jeff, shout out,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: uncle Jeff, he's retired. Just down the road. I remember
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Hastings Street being longer. I like walked it and I
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, this is it.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Fifteen years. I would dare say that your legs of
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: might have got a bit longer.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I made astride on me has improved considerably, But even
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: with the boardwalk, I remember the boardwalk being kilometers, it's.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Like one hundred meters, Like why erosion.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: No, it's just because when I was I was really young,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: when I just thought it's like when you're a kid,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: like my memory of the big Pineapple is this enormous
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: towering structure of the big pineapple. For those of you
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: who don't know, it's a pineapple farm which has a
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: big pineapple out the front and you could like jump
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: in a little like buggy thing and you go around,
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: you eat pineapples and fruit.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Very good explanation for that, and.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: I wanted to go back there, but then I was like, oh,
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: it'll tarnish my memory because the big pineapples and like
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: eight foot tall.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah it's tiny. You're like you're pretty much a foot all.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, it is big. But I didn't go back
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: there because I was like.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Big, I feel like they just it's not that big.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: The same with the big banana. You're into the big banana.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: And coughs, it's that as big. It's not as big
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: as it. It's like when you're in big It's like
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: when you're in year one, you're like, fuck, these year six's,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: these are these adults walking around, and then you become
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: one and you're like, oh.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Am I that big? But yeah, noos is do I
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: say that queen's An's too hot?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Very hot.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: It's uncomfortably tropical.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: It's very hot. My sister had a forty, so all
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: the family came together. There's a big pool full of kids.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, the kids had a great time. He's living
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: in the pool. There's a family. They've been there for
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: a little while, like four nights, and so their kids
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: are very comfy. And so the first morning we wake
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: up and it's it's like self contained units. So we're
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: having breakfast cereal outside and we're on ground level and
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: some kid whinning. He's just like egy gown. He's four.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: I was like that good. And he's walking around. He's
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: on a scooter like a local puts a scooter out
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: down he comes and he's like that looks around and
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: it looks in you guys here for And then Poppy
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: makes no noise what's out there?
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: He just walks in. Laura's like breastfeeding, going who the
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: fuck is this? And I'm like, I don't know if

• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Oh my god. But it's lovely, like no boundaries, kids everywhere.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: And then Marley had this idea to.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Bus and where did she get that from?
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: She loves to sing, loves Taylor Swift, loves performances.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Promised a Taylor Swift song on the ukulele.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Next have, Yeah, she working, doesn't forget I'm working. But
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: one night walking down Hastings Street and Hasting Street, I
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: think it's like a kilometer or two it's and it's
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: it's packed. It's busy summer holidays, just people everywhere. And
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: one night there's a girl singing and Marley was like,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: what is this singing on the street? What do you
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: call that? And I was like, well, this is this
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: is what you call busking. People then perform sing, play
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: an instrument, trying to get money.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: And she was like tones and I was a busker,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: wasn't she?
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: And she was like busking, busking you say? And then
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: she was like marinating over the thought of busking. And
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: the next morning she woke up and she's like, I
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: want to busk And I was like the audacity. You
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: can't just bust I was like, what do you mean,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: and she's like, I'm ready to busk. I'd like to
• 19:03

• 19:05
  Speaker 2: some songs and she's like, okay, I'll learn three songs
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: and I was like great. And I was like to Laura,
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I was like, do we just allow this to happen?
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Do you like, do you encourage that bravery? Or are
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: you like, don't You're just gonna get hurt. I did
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: to protect her.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would be like, because i'd be an idiot,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: get inside and Pete.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: We did a little post and people everybody was like,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: you've got a busk tones and I even wrote and
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: said let her bark. No.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I was like, let's have mask.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: And then I was like, let's just do a practice
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: at home. The three songs had him down. Pat A
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Million Dreams was the best song. She loves that from
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Greatest Shuman. Taylor Swift is another one that's a musical Yes,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: and then we performed in front of the family and
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: she was like, I'm feeling a bit nervous. She's some
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: butterflies you don't have to do if you don't want to,
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: and she's like, I want to do it. So then
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: we walked out, she made a little sign on a
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: piece of paper. She had a hat. We had some
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: money to give to her because I was like, imagine,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: if she doesn't make it, you've.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Got to kick it off too.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, it's like Bascar, you've got if

  Speaker 2: some Indonesian money and like Laura's wallat as well put
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: that in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, if we find this corner.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: And she's like, I don't want to do it, and
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I was like totally fine, don't have to do it.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: And Laura was like, but you can do it if
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: you want to. And she's like, okay, I think I'll start.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: And I was like, oh my, oh man, god, my
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: heart was And so she just then sets a hat
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: up and a sign and I stood back. Laura's there
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: next to me, and we had some of the family
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: with us, so she wasn't just you know, singing to

  Speaker 2: on tone. I can't. I don't know.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: It helps that she's got a little child's voice. It's

  Speaker 3: probably always in key like that that hot.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Against the Hogans well after war songs. I was like,
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: better stop this. She's making a lot of money. What
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: people were dropping in twenties.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: No one's ever paid me twenty bucks for anything.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: One guy dropped in like fifty bucks.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Shut up.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh god, who's just walking around with
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: fifty bucks?
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: Noos old people. Oh they love if you want to busk,
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: go to Hastings Street.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: They're as old as that cat. But we didn't have
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: a permit, so oh yeah, don't know what.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: But yeah, she made a good amount of coin.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: It's about time these kids start paying their way.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: And so I was like, okay, we better stop now,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: and she was like, so what the fuck for? Look
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: at this that's.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Foul repeat she'sat awful song.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: She was like, I want to keep going, and I
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: was like.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's amazing.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: So yeah, wow, and I've created a monster. Day two,
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: she's like, so I'm going to busk again today and
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I can't be asked go out there?
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: I like, do go through the whole big crepr head man.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: But but yeah, she's very excited by next Where's where's
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: the next location?
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Circular key? Ah, that's a classic.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: I think. I think it's you have to like it's
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: hard for buskers.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Well, she's a child, so she probably gets away with it.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: They get away with everything.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't see any issues, foreseeable issues.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Don't quote me on that.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: So I want to buy I'm gonna buy her a microphone?
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or don't. Oh oh god. I advise against that.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: And here's the reason why, because as beautiful as that is,
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: having a microphone in the house opens it up to
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: anyone grabbing that microphone aka Lola.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Had dare you?
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: And you know what kids are like when they find
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: something that makes them sound louder.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: She might be a beautiful singer as well. Don't get
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: me wrong, I'm not saying that she's not. I'm saying
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: it'll be like Da day Dad or something like that.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: Just just to hear the sound of their own loud voice.
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: Hence what remember when my mother in law gave us
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: that karaoke machine, never made it at home. It's some
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: say it's still where she left. It had on the
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: ground because everybody was just.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Showering Marley and pray And I was like, I got
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: to give lot some attention.
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: You're going to say I had to cut it down
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: a couple of pigs and be like, look, wasn't that great?
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: A couple of banknotes in there? But no Noosa was
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: great and it reject it's a great holiday destination. I
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: will advocate for Noosa. And there's a lot of ice creamries.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: I think it's got to have like the highest number
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: of ice creamries per capita per like one hundred meters
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: and anywhere in the world.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Well, a lot of old people and not a lot
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: of them have teeth original and a lot of kids
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: also not much teeth. Yeah, the majority of meals are
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: in cream force.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: It's yeah, if you want ice cream and lots of it,
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: multiple flavors, Hastings.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Street, Yeah, what about Gelado?
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: No, there is Jelata there all they got?
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Can I get the roast beef?
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Every second store is an ice creamery. And so we
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: finished dinner at the RSL one night and we thought,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: we'll go for a nice walk down Hasting Street and
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: we'll get an ice cream. Lovely right. Also, we'll just
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: say that there's an hour difference, so six o'clock in
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Nosa is actually seven o'clock Sydney time.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're our behind, which you kind of forget.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: But then all of a sudden, you know, we're getting
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: this ice cream and I'm like, oh, it's now seven o'clock.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: It's like eight o'clock for the kids. Haven't really acclimatized.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: But we thought, we're a Nosa hustle and bustle. We'll
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: go for a walk down Hasting Street with an ice
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: cream in hand. What a beautiful moment.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's still be light.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Very quickly, Poppy starts losing it. She's transitioning to the bottle,
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: doesn't want Laura's tit anymore. So Laura can't feed the baby.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Laura's holding Poppy. Laura wants to go on the prem
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: You can't go on the prem because it's for Poppy.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: And Lola starts to lose it a little bit, and
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: very quickly as we step further and further down Hasting Street.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: The kids are just getting more and more worked up.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Happened so quickly.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: That happens so quick, in a blink of an blink
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: of an eye. One second we're all there, laughing, smiling,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: cheering on buskers on Hastings Street. The next thing chaos.

  Speaker 3: I'll be like, happy, happy head, and I'm like, I'll
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: be quiet and just change the mood.

• 27:18
  Speaker 1: keep guessing on the toes, yeah, keep it, you know,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: they can be all happy and whatever. And then the
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: slightest thing happened.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Like we were around a pool, right and Oscar wasn't
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: swimming at the time, but he had like just shorts on.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: It got a little bit.

  Speaker 3: Wet, meltdown. It's like, bro, you just got out of
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: a body of water.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: What's the drop going to do? Anyway, Kerry, we were
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: just outside this restaurant which was massive, and it was
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: packed people dining on the street on the footpath. And
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: as we're there and Laura's wrangling a four month old
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: who's absolutely hysterical. Marley's run off because she's upset about something.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: I think ice cream dripped on the top, and Laura's like.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Don't run away from me.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: And then Lola's their going I want to be in
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: the pram and I'm like, you can't go on the

  Speaker 3: All on the street people having their like in ice
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: cream form, there's nothing but ice creams, and.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: They're like, is that Laura from life? And so I'm
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: rambling with Lola and when me and Lola are in
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: a tiff, you know, the gloves are out, and Lola
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: looks at me straight in the eye and goes, I
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: wish I was adopted in front of all these people dying.
• 28:35

  Speaker 6: your partner, Like, just off the back of that, I
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: don't know if you're the same as me, but I secretly,
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: if April makes plans, I secretly want them to fail.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Is that toxic? Like it was like, we're gonna go
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: do this. I'm like, okay, and.
• 29:23
  Speaker 6: Then we go and do it and it goes wrong,
• 29:24

  Speaker 1: I told you we shouldn't have done this.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Is this what you wanted? Is this what you wanted?
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: We could have been our home right now, the kids
• 29:42

• 29:44
  Speaker 2: even know where Mary is.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: AVer's got a good nag of like if we go
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: to the beach, you'll complain about something immediately, like and
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I take it personally because I've dragged us to that
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: specific beach based off the wind or whatever. I've just
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: got to the point where I'm like, you decide, hoping
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: it's an absolute please be susy. It's a train ring
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: and I can be like, see, you need me more
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: than you think.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: But anyway, that's my toxic trait.
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: But I love that you went with it's snowballed into
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: you two just in an argument over whose fault it is.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: And are you happy now? Of course I'm not happy.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't. You can't put a price on having
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: melt it down.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Very good, ma'am. I've got something for you really quick,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: just really quickly.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Have you ever you go to the shops with, say,
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: one kid, because it's much easier with one and kids
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: love to pick things up in the shops, which a
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: lot most of the time I might put it down.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: I spend the whole time to say, put it down,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: stop it, put it and put down. I went to
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: the shops with Macy and she picked up I was
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: in Kmar and she picked up a little bunch of
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: fake flowers and it was just me and her, and
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: I thought, whatever she can hold onto those, no one's
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: going to get hurt in there. And do you often
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: find yourself if you're in that situation, it's easier. They've
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: grown to an attachment to whatever it is they have, right, yes,
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: and you just think it's.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Just easier to buy it if it's something small.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: She's not walking around with walking around with the Mercedes,
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: and she's like, please.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: It's a path of these resistance. You're like, whatever, five
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: bucks or a bunch of flowers. Yeah, by whatever, Yeah,
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: And like I know that as of tomorrow, she'll never
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: think of these things ever again.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: Exactly right, Sore, I needed to get a few things
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: for the house.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: We're sort of perusing.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Came out as you do because there's always so much
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: to look at, because also you also feel like the
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: richest person on earth.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: He's like, I could have thought that.
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: I could buy that, I could buy that, well, fuzzles puzzled,
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: I can buy two of them, but then no more
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: because he'll be popped. And you know, we were walking
• 31:46
  Speaker 7: around and I just was like, I'm not even going
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: to say anything. I'm just going to say, hey, scan
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: them right, fourteen dollars.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Jesus, And at that point came out that's that's got
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: to be.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: I know what you can get for fourteen dollars. That
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: came out A bike.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: I could get pretty much anything. I could get home gym,
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: pretty much, bro. I could get an ice machine for that,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I get ice cream machine. I could get air fryers.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Was not sponsored, by the way, No it's not. But
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: I was like, fourteen can I give a photo of
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: the flowers?
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: I will show you in a moment.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Yes. Sorry.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: So I'm in a debate with myself there where I'm like,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: now do I pick the argument because I thought two bucks?
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: You know you can't add the till fake flowers.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: I was like, I was buying the whole hedge.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: That will last a lifetime.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: What you do?
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Well, what do you think I did? I bought them?
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, good, good, as you should.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: How do you say no to that?
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: Oh my goshatch your outfit?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: I know I was looking at it. I'm like, fourteen bucks,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Come on, this is ridiculous. And I was nearly going
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: to bargain with her, to be like, hey, what instead
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: of those flowers, what about a kind of surprise or something?
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: But I was like, oh god, no.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: We're the flowers.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Now, they're in a vase bars from it's it's a
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: drink bottle. I spend fourteen dollars on a flowers. I'm
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: not buying a vase as well. She wanted one bit
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: rich coming from you, where's your money?
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Buy up?
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: But it begs a question as well, have you have
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: you taken the part of leash resistance with anything notable?
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: Does it anything come to mind where it's like it's
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: easy to buy it and they're not realizing how expensive
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: it is.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Kids like beef jerky today. Yeah, I was getting petrol
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: and beef jerky.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Wow, I got a beef beef just straight up protein.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: It's bad for kids. I don't know.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: It could choke.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: I guess I love it really salty.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: I when I was a kid and we were grocery
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: shopping with my mom, I remember I came across a
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: hula hoop, so me and my sister sus we.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Had hula hoops. I'm like, oh, Mom, go and get
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: the hula hoop.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: It was a similar situation from what I recall is
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: that we just the path of lease resistance. Just let
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: these kids have these what thought were like a dollar
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: crappy plastic little hoops. The last I can't remember how
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Oh they didn't last because I didn't make it home
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: because we went to scan it and it was like
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: fifteen bucks a hoop.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: And we're talking early to mid nineties.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: I bought four hoops the other week, how much five
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: bucks each?
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: See, and we're going to the wrong hoop shop, but they.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Were shit quality. Yeah, okay, they kinked, they kinked, but I.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Remember the kink.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: They never come back.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: I remember that my mum is very much obviously previous
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: generation where it's like pretty black and white. It's either
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: I was getting it or I wasn't, and most of
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: the time I wasn't getting it. But it was like
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: I remember the look on my mum's face and it
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: was like nope, like no remorse, Like she was taking
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: something that I had grown fond of.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Bucks.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so in this instance, I thought, what could have.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Been ashly the hul hoop?
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I could have been a.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: Hula hoop and champion and do you know what, mum,
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: I still can't loop and I remember the thirties, late
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: thirties now, thank you anyway, how do you say no
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: to that? And she looks Mace's quite you know what
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: she's like. She's very quiet, she's very reserved, she's quite easy.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: It would have been easy for me to be like, no,
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: come on, you know, and like she's a bit of
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: a pushover. I'm gonna be honest, but she is a pushover,
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: and Oscar has started to take advantage of that.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: Too.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: What do you mean, I've found myself in a situation
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: where Oscar, my eldest, is throwing his younger sister under
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: the bus for everything.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: A couple of examples.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Around the corner from my place, there's still some land
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: with horses on it random I know, a bit of
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: a like they're obviously sitting.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: On it to make money off developments.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Year old is there, but the horses are there, and
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: there's a little sign that says, if you're going to
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: feed the horse carrots and apples. Only fair enough because
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: they could easily be like donate no cap no. But
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: someone's obviously at one point giving it chocolate cake and
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: ship it up something like that.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: But was it you? Someone at some point was obviously
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: walking home from the right.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Next to the McDonald's and gave it a big mac
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: and it loved. I tell you right now, they're depriving
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: that horse was his beef. Anyway. So one family day,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: whatever it was a weekend, like, what should we do.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: We'll ride our bikes down and we're going to feed
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: the horse. I got a bag of carrots here, okay,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: bag of carrots. Let's get down there. Get down there,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: pull up as a horse I'm feeding the horse.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: And the kids are like, whoa, you know, they're a
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: fucking big animal.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: They are like, well, this is so cool. I was like,
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: do you want to feed him? And yeah, Mason wants
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: to feed him.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: You go, Mace, and he was like it was like
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: s official, lamb.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: She was like what hit?
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: The second was he like please, don't please, don't please.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: It was like it was like, yeah, Macey will do
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: it like just straight up anyway. Then that's so that's
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: one instance.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Because they can never you got to wear the flat hand.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: The thumbs always creep in with kids and you're like,
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: what flat hand, flat hand, and the horse will take
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: a thumb off easy, those chompers.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Explained to me flat hands. I was lollipopping it.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: Fat hand. Oh, flat hand?
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Is that where the old feed the pony comes from? Yeah?
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Oh, because I'm like, Macy, hold it up. She doesn't
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: have a hand anymore. It's not an ice cream, but
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: I treated it like an ice cream.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Anyway.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: People driving by and be like, oh my god, that
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: kid's gonna listen arm.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, flat hand. Next time.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: She's a little tipped. Any parents out there feeding wild horses.
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So he's doing it in that instance where he's
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: not brave enough, so he's just like Macie'll do it.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: It's throwing her under the bus there.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: But then also when they're getting in trouble, which is
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: a classic for kids to do, so I'll paint the
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: picture for you, I go in to give him a
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: kiss good night. Oscar is on the top bunk and
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: he did have a texter right, just like a He
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: was finishing coloring something in and I thought to myself,
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: he's fine, never really thought much of it, and then
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: it gave a kiss good night, gave Macy a kiss
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: good night, went to bed. The next day, they come
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: in in the morning and they both got texture on them,
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: the same color that they had, and I was like, oh,
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: you silly buggers, like it was you know what, really
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: easy to wash off of skin. And then a couple
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: of hours are gone past and I hear ape we'll
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: go Macy, and I was like, oh fuck, someone's in trouble.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: So we all hid as we do because he was crazy,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: a lunatic. She is out of control. She's not really.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: I just winked Matt anyway. I was like, oh fuck,
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: someone's in trouble. So we all went to investigate.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: She's on a period as well.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I looked at the cole joking I did.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: It was a joke.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: I did look at the calendar, and I was like,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: we're on here, guys. I was like, okay, here we go.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Someone's in trouble and it's mazy and me. I was like, yeah,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I was getting in trouble. She had drawn all over
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: her bed on the sheets.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: She was like who had the text?
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: And Oscar just goes Macy Macy only. And I looked
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: at Oscar and I was like, bro, you have texture
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: all over your hands. You were literally just being caught
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: red handed. Okay, So he just threw her under the
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: bus like she had it.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: I never had it. Whatsowever, like it is all over
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: your hand?
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: You were holding a texta right now?
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: And then I also, you know how I've been having
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: a crack about how he weighs like eighteen kilos but
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: stomps around my house like he's a baby elephant.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: And I get the shits with it.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: And I spoke to downstairs about it and I was like, hey, sorry,
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: just so you know, I'm trying to coach him out
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: He weighs nothing. I don't know why he's so heavy footed.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: And then we were downstairs and is he though I've
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: seen him war bro, he's like up the hallway.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: Anyway, we range downstairs and I'd already spoken to him,

  Speaker 1: buddy Macy, you know, and like again, you've thrown her
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: under the bus. Not cool.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: That's what siblings do.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: But I'm like, come on, bro, like man up, own
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: up to.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: It, you know, like what do you and feel the
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: wrath of April?
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think so actually yeah no, no I'm thinking
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: about it. Don't do it. Don't do it, so whatever
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: it takes. But like, he weighs nothing.
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: Like we went to the pool the other day and
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: he goes, oh, Dad, I'm going to do a belly flop.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: And I was like, you probably got to have a
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: belly to do that, bro, what is it going to
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: be a rib flop? Because you literally are just dick
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: and ribs.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: He's just like whack did was he just floating?
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: He's like a lily Pad. No, he did sink.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: He's actually very good at belly flops. Ever grows a belly,
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: it's going to be outstanding anyway. So Oscar is in
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: the phase of throwing Macy under the bus for absolutely
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: everything because he's scared.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it down, Matt. I think we deprived
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: people of it last week.
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: Let's go to some list of questions because his parents
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: out there have just spent six or so weeks with
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: their kids and they've got questions that need to be answered.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Look, we're not educated to answer the but we'll give
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: a go. We'll give it a go.
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: This is actually a question. We just set it up
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: to be like we give it this little listener. I
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: have a question. I'm taking you back up the listener.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was it.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: My question is this could be controversial. I would love
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: to hear your take on it as someone who was
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: impartial to the holiday that.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: I was just on. Yeah, and you've come to the
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: right person.
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: I think when you were at a hotel with a
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: big pool and there's lots of kids playing, if you
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: are a family that has brought toys to the pool
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: and those toys are sitting pool side unattended.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: You're with me, I am?
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: Is it just expected that other children will play with
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: those toys? Those toys have to inadvertently become communal.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: I think they do become communal, thank you, because kids
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: have a mind of their own and they don't understand
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: They see toy at tunnel vision, if you will.
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: They have no sense of ownership.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: They just see the toy that they want to play with.
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: Where the etiquette comes in is what the parent of
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: the kid who is using the toy, that's not theirs,
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: how they are about it.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: If they're like, hey, if it's okay to play, then
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: we'll make sure that we hand it back after.
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, make sure you look after the toy. Of course,
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: if the child wants the toy back, that is theirs.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: To begin with, you have to like kind of wrap
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: it up. Yeah.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: I think the parents that own it also need to
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: have a responsibility to be like, look, it is your toy, yes,
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: but you do ask for things back, you don't take it.
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes. So there were some pool noodles by the
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: pool classic pool toy, absolute classic of a pool to
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: so many uses for that pool. How long a poo
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Noodle's been around for ash. I'd love to know when
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: were they invented?
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: Who invented the pool?
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: Invented the pool noodle?
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: That's another We should bring out a line of pool noodles. Yes,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: two doting noodles.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: The design has not changed in decades. But pool noodles
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: sitting there by the pool, and Lola, who's not a
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: great swimmer, she's like, oh, a bit of swimming apparatus
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: that I can have to assist me with my stroke.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: So she grabs it. But there is a mother next
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: to the pool, I want to say, two meters away
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: from the pool noodle. And I was like I could
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: have just let her take it, but I was like
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: excuse me, and she was like yes, And I said,
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: do you mind if we just if she plays the
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: pool noodle? There's also four there, and she was like
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: what I at this stage, Lola has already got the
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: pool noodle. And I was kind of like, you know,
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: and if your child wants it back, we'll give it back.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: But can she just have a little, a quick little
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: play with it?
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: And she was like, oh, all the bosses are going
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: to be happy about this one.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: And I was like, what do you fucking mean? Like
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: give up the pool noodle. You can't. You can't be
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: holding the pool noodles pool side with no one playing
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: with them, like that's fair. Gap. If you don't want
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: to put them next to your day bed, don't leave
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: them poolside.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, don't put them in the in the vision of
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: children if you don't want to share them.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: First of all, who's the child in your house?
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: There he is.
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: But second of all, if you don't want to, and
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: you're very like, okay, well, I don't know, well, I
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: don't know what the instance might be that it's like,
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: it's not it's not on You're right, you say to
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: your kids, hey, when you're done, you bring them back
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: and we put them with our staff. Not leave them
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: pulside when there's four year olds rowing around who don't
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: quite understand.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: And then you even you even politely asked that you've
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: gone way above, over and above.
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: You could have easily been ignorant as bliss again and
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: let it happen, turn a blind eye, and then wait
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: and wait for the parent to be like the other parents.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: So what would if she have done if you didn't.
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: Ask you want the pull noodle back? Yeah, good luck,
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: get it off my child?
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but like that's what I mean, Like, what what
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: what is she willing to do for that pool? No?
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: I could have just should have just let take it.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: She can handle herself. Yeah, all this a fucking noodle.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: Then she's playing with it and the lady's just watching me.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: I'm like, this is so awkward. I'm just being watched.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm playing with loler and the noodle and
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: she's right down. I'm like, that's so weird.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: Back in a second, doing it wrong. Maybe she's a noodle.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: There was another family there who had like multiple toys.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: He had like a boogie board. They had those little
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: toys that they dropped down to the bottom of the pool.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: They would just throw them in the pool there and
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: be like, hey, we'll pick them up this afternoon. They
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: had a day where they left pool toys everywhere.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: We were in Bali with like other families, and there
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: were other families obviously staying as were there as well.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: It just became a big communal toy gathering of that.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: And it's like it's a beautiful thing.
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: Like unless the items that the child cherishes like Oscar
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: and Elma only heirloom. Yeah, yeah, yeah, if you're going
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: on holiday. You don't take the good ship with you
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: on holidays. It's it's like going camping at a festival.
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: You leave the fucking tent, you know what I mean,
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: same thing you get there. You've got a bucket and
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: spade at a resort on the beach or whatever, and
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: other kids are playing with an all distracted and you
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: get to have a drink with potentially maybe some new
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: best friends.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: Yes, I don't see a problem with it.
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: Just know that you're contributing to other people having an
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: amazing holiday.
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: You should have torn that noodle up in front of her.
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: I did, Thank goodness, Thank good Someone needs to stand
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: up to these noodle people.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: That should be on the hotel pool rules. If you
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: bring toys, expect to share them there you go here first.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: Fair enough. This one's actually from a listener.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, thank god?
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Can listen have a question?
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: Sorry, maybe next episode.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: Nodles and stuff like that. Okay, so this is a
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: question from a listener.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: What is the etiquette of when it comes to pulling
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: out of kids birthday parties? O.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: I've got Lola's birthday party coming up and I'm so nervous.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: I haven't yet locked in details for a last actually.
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: Happy birthday to Lola because this episode will come out
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: and it will be her birthday.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: I think we will do it the week after her birthday,
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: so then she has she could be like a get
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: together for the school friends. Cool, but I think, gosh, like,
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: it'll break my little heart a little Lola if they
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: don't turn up, because.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: I remember last party that she had. It rained in
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: the morning and she was like, is anyone going to come?
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: And I was like, well, the rain was my way
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: out of it, but then it cleared up.
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: But on the one hand, I also think, like when
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: you got a kid very temperamental, you know, it's easy
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: to use them as an excuse if you just can't
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: be asked as a parent.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: I use them to get out of things.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: Everyone.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, everything, But I I think if you've committed before
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: you give an answer, let me give Let me give
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: a couple of different scenarios.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: Say you're pulling out before the day of what's the etiquette.
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: There has to be a valid excuse. Child has to
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: be in a life threatening situation.
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: Days before day days before Yes, I stand by that,
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: you've got real hard What about day off?
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: They they got to be dead there's a heartbeat.
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: You are going, yeah, there's a death in the family,
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter, it's the child that's end of the party dead.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: No, has got to be a good excuse if you're
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: just being a bit like you can't be asked as
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: a parent because there's a hard work for the parents.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: Let's be honest. Yeah, if your kid's contagious, that's valid.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Gastro, that's fine, that's fine, Gastro is that's like the
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: joker card.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Of yeah, of excuse. I nearly got the perfect out
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: to a party the other day so close.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: What was it? It was weather, but where the end
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: of our street floods and it flooded, and I was like,
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: I've got to go get proof that I can't come
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: to this party.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: I can't even get out of my street.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: This is trapped.
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: This is beautiful, this is perfect.
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: It's worked out perfect because I didn't want to go
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: in the first place, because I knew where it was.
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: It's a very noisy place. What was it therl but no,
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: but the playground is indoors at the echo. They've got
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: no sound bound very sensory.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: I'm very suggested bowling once with the kids with action
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: and it was like I suggested throwing them into like
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: live volcano, like.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: Volcano every time, and I was like, this is the
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: perfect out to this. But but the fucking council turned up,
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: didn't they And they released the drain.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: We was gone. Did you say for your old birthday party?
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Release the drains? And it was like when Moses part
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: of the sea, That's what it was. Religious.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: I just saw the book A Moreman a Calf's seen
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: after one week and it was all of a sudden,
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: it was like the sun came out and I had
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: to go to this party sober.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: But think about think you've just made that child's birthday.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, just just know if you're a.
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: Parent, didn't even see the child. It was in the
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: playground whole time, and they did the cake. When I
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: went to the bathroom, I got nothing out of that.
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: I got nothing. Yeah, your cup was not filled.
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all I got was a bunch of people questioning
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: why I don't have a drink in my hand.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was fucked. But think about the children next
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: time you're considering cancling a birthday party? Think of that
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: poor child. Yeah, and also the effort that the parents
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: have gone into the wasted the wasted goodie bags.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: The way I see it is if I'm throwing the
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: party and someone cancels, I just think more cake for me.
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: You do like cake, more cake wares, party bags for me,
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: less children.
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: I actually we were going to do pairants, I know,
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: to call out, as we often do. We went a
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: little bit over time, so we aren't through your pair ants.
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: If you have submitted them, they are great. They're fantastic.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: There is no critiquing of the quality of the pair rants.
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: They are great.
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: I've got some words to say about that.
