- 0:56Speaker 3: It is the good, it is the bad and the relatable,
- 0:58Speaker 3: and it is not about giving advice because Ash and
- 1:01Speaker 3: I are very dumb.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Well said.
- 1:04Speaker 3: I couldn't have said it better myself, and I had
- 1:06Speaker 3: a little tickle in my throat.
- 1:08Speaker 1: That's no good.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I had an IV yesterday, so I'm I'm flye.
- 1:15Speaker 1: What were you injecting into yourself?
- 1:18Speaker 3: Just just just heroin? It's as usual. Now let's move
- 1:22Speaker 3: on from that. We do have we do have something
- 1:25Speaker 3: that we need to talk about it's pressing. What's that
- 1:27Speaker 3: is that there was a technical issue, the big technical issue.
- 1:34Speaker 1: We had a few people in the Facebook group being like,
- 1:36Speaker 1: what the hell is going on? And poor Jess, who
- 1:40Speaker 1: was in Japan had to come back and save the day.
- 1:43Speaker 1: She flew back really quick. We were like sorry about
- 1:47Speaker 1: the technical error, and people were like, we know, we
- 1:50Speaker 1: know what's happened, but I what happened? Man? You tell
- 1:54Speaker 1: I actually want to defend myself. You tell me what
- 1:56Speaker 1: you think happened. And I've had a few weeks now,
- 2:00Speaker 1: back to back where I revealed information which I wasn't
- 2:03Speaker 1: meant to reveal, the first one being the name of
- 2:06Speaker 1: our child, shout out.
- 2:07Speaker 2: To Poppy's unborn Poppy yet to be born.
- 2:10Speaker 1: And then apparently I don't remember doing this. That starts
- 2:17Speaker 1: the sentence with a para. Well, it was first brought
- 2:22Speaker 1: to my attention whilst I was in a gojak, which
- 2:25Speaker 1: is a taxi in Ballei. I was in the front
- 2:28Speaker 1: seat and Laura sit me behind me, taps me on
- 2:32Speaker 1: the shoulder. This is on a Wednesday, the day which
- 2:35Speaker 1: our podcast comes out, and she says, did you mention
- 2:39Speaker 1: that Britt was getting married in Bali and I was like, no, no,
- 2:46Speaker 1: I don't recall. I was like, I would definitely not
- 2:50Speaker 1: do that, did I? And then I was like my
- 2:54Speaker 1: initial reaction was just no, like Blake.
- 2:57Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you got her back yourself, Yeah you've got
- 3:00Speaker 3: even though you're like I'm not sure, You've still got
- 3:03Speaker 3: to be like, I definitely didn't do that. So just
- 3:05Speaker 3: in case you definitely didn't do that, you're like to.
- 3:10Speaker 1: And I was like that was close. And then Laura
- 3:13Speaker 1: was like, we've just had a couple of people message
- 3:15Speaker 1: us saying that they heard that BRIT's getting married from
- 3:19Speaker 1: your podcast.
- 3:20Speaker 3: And I was like, the Lifers were a little bit
- 3:23Speaker 3: off it because they feel like far part of the fart.
- 3:26Speaker 3: I feel like part of the family, feel like part
- 3:28Speaker 3: of the family over there at Life. I'm cut and
- 3:31Speaker 3: then we've.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Gone, You've gone.
- 3:34Speaker 3: I'm not taking any I was like, my message to
- 3:37Speaker 3: Laura was like, we'll do whatever it takes.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Was it me or was it you? I think it
- 3:43Speaker 1: was a combination. Was it who was it? I think
- 3:45Speaker 1: I don't think it was me. I think I was
- 3:47Speaker 1: that was you. It was definitely no.
- 3:49Speaker 3: I had mentioned it previously, but not as much detail
- 3:54Speaker 3: as you bullshit. We have evidence. Please play the tape.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Play the tape for the man.
- 4:02Speaker 1: Put forward the case to not bring the kids to Bali. Yeah,
- 4:06Speaker 1: because you're going for a special going for its wedding
- 4:09Speaker 1: over Bali. I think I think that's public. This would
- 4:12Speaker 1: be out while time's over. Yeah, actually will be good one, Matt,
- 4:22Speaker 1: good one. That's Ai. That is a I. I've been framed.
- 4:25Speaker 3: I've put that in there to frame you. I just
- 4:27Speaker 3: wanted to ruffle the feathers a little bit. Okay, No
- 4:30Speaker 3: I didn't. You just said that all on your right.
- 4:32Speaker 3: But it's not the first time we mentioned it. I'm
- 4:34Speaker 3: certain that we should we.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Shut the fuck up. Did we mention it? What are
- 4:40Speaker 1: you doing? I'm trying to get you more. Okay. It
- 4:43Speaker 1: humors me when you're in trouble and it's not me, because.
- 4:46Speaker 3: To be quite honest, I thought it would be me
- 4:49Speaker 3: that would suck up most things.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Why did I do that?
- 4:52Speaker 3: I think I thought everyone knew that I was going
- 4:56Speaker 3: to Balley, right, people I knew.
- 4:59Speaker 1: People I don't know. I don't know.
- 5:01Speaker 3: It's the world's worst kept secret. Like we all knew
- 5:05Speaker 3: it was getting married. Like when an influence is like
- 5:08Speaker 3: I got something big coming. People are like, we don't care,
- 5:11Speaker 3: just when it's done, tell us. Yeah, Like it was
- 5:13Speaker 3: like everyone went quiet on socials.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Where is everyone? So? I do want to apologize to
- 5:19Speaker 1: brit for potentially destroying the surprise. I have to say it,
- 5:27Speaker 1: but just play along with me. We whoa. We are
- 5:34Speaker 1: so sorry for what we've done.

- 7:01Speaker 3: So you went to Bali for a wedding of we
- 7:04Speaker 3: allowed to talk about it now Briss's wedding, which is
- 7:08Speaker 3: Laura's co host on Life on Cut.
- 7:10Speaker 2: And Laura Laura, Laura is your current.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Wife, beautiful wife, Laura. She was actually already in Bali
- 7:19Speaker 1: for work for work, and so I was joining her,
- 7:22Speaker 1: flying over with the kids. And there are lots of
- 7:25Speaker 1: options on solo with the kids. And you're a good dad,
- 7:28Speaker 1: thank you. You are one in a million. And these
- 7:32Speaker 1: decisions what flight to book? These are decisions that I
- 7:36Speaker 1: agonize over. Okay, okay, because the option was ash do
- 7:42Speaker 1: I fly do go quanas? Nice plane? You get food?
- 7:47Speaker 3: Issue is is she is the flight arrives quite late.
- 7:52Speaker 3: You're getting into Bali at lad ten eleven Jetstar version.
- 7:56Speaker 3: They're all the same. You get them too late. So
- 7:58Speaker 3: by the time you go through customs, once you get
- 8:01Speaker 3: in the taxi.
- 8:03Speaker 2: There is a six am Jet Stuff flight.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Too early.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Early there is a ten o'clock Garuda flight. There was
- 8:11Speaker 3: a ten o'clock.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I rocked up. This is on my socials, but I
- 8:16Speaker 1: rocked up and they were like, flights canceled. That fucks
- 8:19Speaker 1: fucking ran. I ran. They said, if you don't want
- 8:22Speaker 1: to accept a new flight, which is tomorrow morning, you
- 8:25Speaker 1: can get a full refund. So I knew there was
- 8:27Speaker 1: a Virgin flight in the afternoon. I fucking sprinted. I
- 8:31Speaker 1: was like Usain Bolt across the airport because Virgin was
- 8:35Speaker 1: at one end, Garuda was the other. I had Marley
- 8:38Speaker 1: and Lola under both arms. I get to Virgin. There's
- 8:41Speaker 1: no one there except for six women. Oh and then
- 8:45Speaker 1: as I get to that checking desk, they say, I
- 8:48Speaker 1: cannot believe we just got the last seats on that flight.
- 8:52Speaker 1: And they turn around and I just go, are you
- 8:54Speaker 1: fucking kidding? I shouldn't have sworn?
- 8:57Speaker 3: And Marley and Lola were like, are we not going
- 8:59Speaker 3: to see mummy and I'm like no, because they booked
- 9:02Speaker 3: the last tickets. Did one of those one of those
- 9:05Speaker 3: women be like at least show some sort of empathy,
- 9:08Speaker 3: you know where they were they were, they were like
- 9:10Speaker 3: it was it was a week like.
- 9:14Speaker 1: They were. I could tell. I looked in their eyes
- 9:16Speaker 1: and they were upset that they had Because I'm standing
- 9:19Speaker 1: there with my two children. They're both balling, being.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Like, we're not going to go on holiday and I'm like, no,
- 9:23Speaker 3: we're not, because they have ruined it for us.
- 9:29Speaker 1: Anyway. And then do you know what? Do you know
- 9:31Speaker 1: what made matters worse? When I got home, I had
- 9:35Speaker 1: to get back in the taxi, had to get home.
- 9:37Speaker 1: The taxi driver was like, oh, the card machine's not working,
- 9:40Speaker 1: and so I tapped again and he's like, no, it
- 9:42Speaker 1: didn't work. Tap again. I got charged five times my
- 9:46Speaker 1: fucking time. He's gotcha. I want one of those ATM machines,
- 9:51Speaker 1: just walk around town with it. What do you mean?
- 9:54Speaker 1: I looked at my statement and I remember the time
- 9:55Speaker 1: I was like, I think I think you've charged me.
- 9:59Speaker 1: It's gone through, guys. Now it hasn't gone through. It's
- 10:00Speaker 1: fled the country. Now, I mean anyway. So then the
- 10:03Speaker 1: next morning was up at three am back to Garuda.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Long story short. I don't want to go on about,
- 10:08Speaker 1: you know, my situation. But the computers were down. Oh
- 10:12Speaker 1: my god, it's a two hour wait. There's a small
- 10:16Speaker 1: chance ash that I went into the business line.
- 10:20Speaker 3: To skip the queue a little bit. Why were you
- 10:28Speaker 3: in business, don't you?
- 10:29Speaker 1: Dad? No, but don't wink at me. The wait was
- 10:34Speaker 1: very long, okay, I would I'm with two kids. They
- 10:38Speaker 1: had to go to the toilet, so I had to
- 10:39Speaker 1: leave the queue to go to the toilet. And I thought,
- 10:42Speaker 1: I'm not going to try and weed the my way
- 10:44Speaker 1: back like halfway into the queue.
- 10:46Speaker 3: So I just jumped into the business queue and yeah, great,
- 10:49Speaker 3: how did that go? It's great, really good. You skipped
- 10:51Speaker 3: the whole line.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Yes, I I didn't want to. I didn't want to
- 10:56Speaker 1: go on too much about like that line at the
- 10:58Speaker 1: checking desk, because people like you were straight to the front.
- 11:02Speaker 1: I don't condone. It worked. It did like it, you know,
- 11:06Speaker 1: it worked. I don't want to.
- 11:07Speaker 3: Actually, I've got a little hack fee now. Actually, now
- 11:10Speaker 3: let's just jog my memory. I was coming back from
- 11:14Speaker 3: what was I going back from Brisbane? And you know
- 11:16Speaker 3: when you get to security and the normal line Love Brisbane,
- 11:21Speaker 3: and then the priority line. Who I was with Matt Veach,
- 11:26Speaker 3: you're on your trouble here. If they figure you out,
- 11:29Speaker 3: you could just go in the priority line because they
- 11:31Speaker 3: don't actually check your boarding paths until you're scanning onto
- 11:34Speaker 3: the plane.
- 11:34Speaker 1: No, I've been I have tried to jump into the
- 11:37Speaker 1: primary line and they've checked my boarding past and said no,
- 11:39Speaker 1: oh that's right. We got yelled at that time. Yeah
- 11:41Speaker 1: we got yeah, yes, we take all of that back. Yeah,
- 11:44Speaker 1: but it'll worked this time.
- 11:45Speaker 3: But so you went straight to the front of the line,
- 11:47Speaker 3: all gravy, straight through.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Let's just focus on the fact that, you know, I
- 11:53Speaker 1: had two kids by myself. Yeah, and the grid of
- 11:56Speaker 1: flight was good. My mom was like, who are you
- 11:59Speaker 1: flying with Garuda? They had a crash last month for
- 12:02Speaker 1: people died.
- 12:03Speaker 3: They had one of the worst track records of plane
- 12:06Speaker 3: crashes out of all our lines.
- 12:07Speaker 1: It's like I just changed it to air Asia. I
- 12:10Speaker 1: was like, why the fuck are you telling me this? Nan,
- 12:12Speaker 1: my mum the world's biggest warrior. Oh yeah, but we
- 12:15Speaker 1: got there and and my sister actually said, you just
- 12:18Speaker 1: stopped complaining because I did a video we got were
- 12:21Speaker 1: a complaint. We're in a villa and there was construction.
- 12:24Speaker 1: The pool and restaurant was being built next door. We
- 12:27Speaker 1: were like the last villa next to the construction site.
- 12:30Speaker 1: And they're like, there's a bit of noise, just a bit.
- 12:33Speaker 1: There was jack hammering every and there's.
- 12:35Speaker 2: No sound insulation, bali whatsoever.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Those rooms are.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Just just mate like there's like no in or or
- 12:43Speaker 3: outer wall.
- 12:44Speaker 1: It's just the way it is.
- 12:45Speaker 3: There was a nightmare, but just quickly with the going
- 12:47Speaker 3: to the bathroom with both you had both kids and
- 12:49Speaker 3: you're the only parent. I think it's really funny when
- 12:51Speaker 3: I have to go to the bathroom and I have
- 12:52Speaker 3: to drag them along with me. It was like you
- 12:54Speaker 3: stand there while I go to the bathroom on the plane, No,
- 12:57Speaker 3: just it just wherever you with both kids on time
- 13:00Speaker 3: and you have to wait for a change and the
- 13:03Speaker 3: men's toilets sucky. Come in there and they're like his
- 13:06Speaker 3: place stinks.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, up against the walls, Like what's up
- 13:09Speaker 1: on the floor on the plane. If you've flown with
- 13:13Speaker 1: both kids, have you done that before?
- 13:17Speaker 3: Oh my god alone, Oh my god, when would I
- 13:21Speaker 3: have had to do that you tell me, bro, well,
- 13:24Speaker 3: my wife doesn't work overseas.
- 13:25Speaker 1: Sometimes you've never flown solo with both kids?
- 13:29Speaker 3: No, oh, I feel like you just This is the
- 13:33Speaker 3: equivalent of a dad saying I've never changed an happy No,
- 13:36Speaker 3: it's not whoa whoa you're about dad, I'm not part
- 13:40Speaker 3: of the three percent.
- 13:42Speaker 1: Yes, you know, I'm not. You live, I'm gonna do.
- 13:47Speaker 2: I'm flying this afternoon alone.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Just bring the kids. The most stressful moment ash on
- 13:54Speaker 1: those flights, okay, is when you have to go to
- 13:58Speaker 1: the toilet. I had to do a.
- 14:01Speaker 3: Yeah, and I also I got they moved my flight
- 14:06Speaker 3: and I it was weird because I talked about the
- 14:09Speaker 3: sitting arrangement, Oh yeah, And I was like, do you
- 14:11Speaker 3: go like, because Garuda is two four and two, do
- 14:13Speaker 3: you go four in the middle? And I was like,
- 14:14Speaker 3: wouldn't it be funny if you had two and like
- 14:17Speaker 3: the window aisle and then you're then across the other aisle.
- 14:20Speaker 1: And they must have heard me. That's the seats that
- 14:23Speaker 1: we got. I couldn't move my seats. They were like,
- 14:26Speaker 1: here's your seats and I was like, oh, I'm separate
- 14:28Speaker 1: to the kids, and they were like fuck fuck ed
- 14:30Speaker 1: you're like I was, it was. It was anyone wondering terrible.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Oh, because they're just doing whatever they like over there.
- 14:38Speaker 3: And Lola has a little like screen in front of
- 14:40Speaker 3: her seat and she's like, oh, the screen's broken, and
- 14:42Speaker 3: you're like God, reaching over and trying to help her out.
- 14:45Speaker 1: But yeah. Going then to the toilet and like trying
- 14:48Speaker 1: to be as quick in the fishing as.
- 14:50Speaker 2: You can, leave the door open, like holding it open,
- 14:56Speaker 2: then coming.
- 14:56Speaker 1: Back and being like will they still be there?
- 14:59Speaker 3: Oh?
- 14:59Speaker 1: Yeah, because like they're unsupervised. A lady rode in and
- 15:03Speaker 1: was like she was flying with her daughter. Her daughter
- 15:06Speaker 1: was asleep. She went to the toilet and the daughter
- 15:08Speaker 1: woke up and thought the plane had landed. New people
- 15:11Speaker 1: had gotten on and woke up and was like, it's
- 15:17Speaker 1: like a home alone situation. But we made it there. Yes,
- 15:21Speaker 1: little bit of noise, but it was. It was a
- 15:24Speaker 1: lovely holiday, a lovely wedding as well. Thankfully no paparazzi
- 15:29Speaker 1: had rocked up and didn't get gay crashed by Life
- 15:31Speaker 1: on Cut fans who knew where it was. It was great.

- 16:11Speaker 1: and returning back to this fucking hell whole of the city.
- 16:15Speaker 1: It's good to have you back. It is cold.
- 16:17Speaker 3: It is cold here compared to Barley wearing a beanie.

- 16:30Speaker 3: Around here that I want to enlighten you about. Go on, Okay.
- 16:35Speaker 3: The first one is I think I think my I'm
- 16:40Speaker 3: calling Macy the Silent Assassin. Yes, she's sort of getting
- 16:43Speaker 3: to that age now where she's halfway through three and
- 16:47Speaker 3: she's a bit of a threeen Ager three is the toughest,
- 16:49Speaker 3: say three ager. Yeah, yeah, she's really quiet, as we know.
- 16:54Speaker 3: But that's a problem because she seems to be always
- 16:56Speaker 3: up to no good.
- 16:57Speaker 1: But silently. And I'm concerned because.
- 17:01Speaker 3: Oscar easy easy to figure out what he's doing because
- 17:05Speaker 3: he doesn't stop yapping. So he's committing a crime and
- 17:09Speaker 3: someone okay, here we go. If someone's committing a crime
- 17:11Speaker 3: and they haven't stopped talking to through the whole crime,
- 17:14Speaker 3: it's Oscar, okay, because he doesn't shut up.
- 17:17Speaker 1: May see not so much.
- 17:19Speaker 2: You sort of walk in on her doing devious things
- 17:21Speaker 2: all the time.
- 17:23Speaker 3: And I kept walking around the house and finding headless
- 17:27Speaker 3: lego men hear me out weird. Yeah, at first I
- 17:32Speaker 3: was like, there's a lego body just on the floor.
- 17:36Speaker 2: That's not a crime scene, or is it?
- 17:39Speaker 3: And I kept finding them all over the place, to
- 17:42Speaker 3: the point where I had torsos no heads, that's all.
- 17:48Speaker 1: Through the house. The dog.
- 17:50Speaker 3: Maybe I thought maybe they're just I don't know, maybe
- 17:54Speaker 3: King George lives here. I don't know, like fuck, like
- 17:57Speaker 3: just bodies scattered good head wat.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Little ancient history joke from you there, Thank you, King
- 18:03Speaker 1: George didn't even laugh. You fuck her. You're like, you
- 18:07Speaker 1: didn't say which king George kick the fifth? I don't
- 18:11Speaker 1: know fuck one that would be head? Whatever is that?
- 18:14Speaker 1: Do you mean?
- 18:15Speaker 3: Do I look like a history teacher's being on? Maybe
- 18:20Speaker 3: the one that be headed everybody?
- 18:22Speaker 1: Don't? Sorry, didn't they when they all be headers? Henry
- 18:26Speaker 1: the eighth? Thank you? Jes Jess is informing us. She's
- 18:29Speaker 1: googled that for sure.
- 18:31Speaker 3: Anyway, I kept finding these bodies everywhere, and and I
- 18:34Speaker 3: was like, where are all the heads?
- 18:35Speaker 1: Who's doing what with the heads? Now?
- 18:38Speaker 3: Maybe has a toy kitchen. You know, there's big toy kitchen.
- 18:42Speaker 3: She's always making food. She brings it out here, not
- 18:44Speaker 3: real food, like fake food anyway, So I just want
- 18:48Speaker 3: to show you.
- 18:50Speaker 1: Her kitchen. Oh god, okay, what are those tribes ash
- 18:54Speaker 1: where they they like they shrink the heads? Is it
- 18:57Speaker 1: Papa the Guinea?
- 18:59Speaker 2: What why do they do that? Track me the microwave.
- 19:02Speaker 1: There's like these tribes they like shrink the hang on.
- 19:05Speaker 1: Let me just want that really quickly. No, yes, so
- 19:07Speaker 1: the Amazonian tribes. So I don't like if you're from
- 19:10Speaker 1: pupping a guinea, didn't mean to attack you there, accuse
- 19:12Speaker 1: you of something you're not doing, but they would shrink
- 19:15Speaker 1: the heads. I think they put it in vinegar. Watch
- 19:18Speaker 1: Ripley's believe.
- 19:19Speaker 3: It or not.
- 19:19Speaker 2: I know how i'd dispose of a body.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Now, I've just passed this on to Macy, the serial
- 19:24Speaker 3: killer of the household anyway, So I've gone to her kitchen, yep, okay,
- 19:31Speaker 3: and in her kitchen she has a fake microwave. I'll
- 19:35Speaker 3: get you to just press play on this and you'll
- 19:38Speaker 3: notice something else in the video as.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Well that she's stashing in there from previous episodes. What's that?
- 19:43Speaker 1: What do we got? Oh my god? This is like
- 19:45Speaker 1: a graveyard of a serial killer.
- 19:48Speaker 3: So she's pulling the heads off the lego, leaving the
- 19:52Speaker 3: torsos throughout the house, storing the heads in a makeshift cot.
- 19:59Speaker 1: He's like darb in the microwave. Who's that serial kill Dama?
- 20:03Speaker 1: You remember him? Wasn't that Jeffrey Dahma?
- 20:06Speaker 4: Dama?
- 20:06Speaker 3: Macy Dama. You've got what's next to it? Eclipsement If
- 20:15Speaker 3: you're not familiar. Macy is addicted to Eclipse mints, and
- 20:19Speaker 3: we spoke about this a long time ago, where she's
- 20:21Speaker 3: an addict. I catch her climbing all sorts of furniture
- 20:24Speaker 3: to get to eclipse mints. But she's got a stash
- 20:27Speaker 3: of eclipse mints what in her microwave.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Along with the heads of all the lego. Wow, there's
- 20:34Speaker 1: a lot to unpack here. There's a lot to unpack.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Are we concerned? Absolutely? Yeah.
- 20:39Speaker 3: I was concerned when I found all the book flaps
- 20:40Speaker 3: under the bed. Remember this is this is another staty.
- 20:45Speaker 3: Any psychologists listening in, what does this mean? What does
- 20:49Speaker 3: this mean for Macy?
- 20:50Speaker 1: Yeah? Red flags? I think so. The fact is.
- 20:53Speaker 3: She's got like an m O like most serial killers have,
- 20:56Speaker 3: which is pop the head, discard the body where wherever.
- 21:00Speaker 1: She and she wants to keep something to remember them by.
- 21:03Speaker 2: Just keeping it, and then she puts it in there.
- 21:05Speaker 1: So that's her whole Oh my god. So I'm concerned.
- 21:09Speaker 1: I'll keep you posting sleep with one io. He doesn't know.
- 21:12Speaker 1: I know.
- 21:13Speaker 3: I put that back confront her. I will be don't
- 21:16Speaker 3: you worry, Like with the book thing, and she ran
- 21:18Speaker 3: like a proper criminal.
- 21:20Speaker 1: To you right now, she will be Leganette.
- 21:25Speaker 3: Anyway, that's one thing you've missed, and the second thing
- 21:28Speaker 3: you've missed is and I don't know if this is
- 21:32Speaker 3: a known hack, but I April has taught the kids
- 21:36Speaker 3: something that I thought was genius and I want to
- 21:40Speaker 3: see what you think and whether you do it, So
- 21:42Speaker 3: I'll just explain it to you and then i'll show
- 21:43Speaker 3: you the little video and for the listeners of course,
- 21:46Speaker 3: because this is an audio medium. It is winter, as
- 21:53Speaker 3: you know here in Australia, it is winter, and it
- 21:56Speaker 3: does get cold in winter, believe it or not real.
- 22:00Speaker 3: So we're talking multiple layers on adults and children of clothes.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Do you have any heater in your house? Yeah, it's
- 22:07Speaker 1: in the kids room. What do you have?
- 22:09Speaker 2: It's just like an oil heater, that's all. We've got.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Jesus christro and no insulation under the floor and it's
- 22:15Speaker 3: just timber flooring.
- 22:16Speaker 2: It's like walking on ice.
- 22:18Speaker 3: I have never been cold, like properly cold until living
- 22:22Speaker 3: until now.
- 22:23Speaker 1: It's also I feel like when you get older, you
- 22:24Speaker 1: get colder. Yeah, that's that's the thing too. And also
- 22:27Speaker 1: you've dropped a bit of weight. That's just some shready
- 22:31Speaker 1: just not eating. What was I doing?
- 22:34Speaker 3: Yes, it's cold, so multiple layers and sometimes that would
- 22:37Speaker 3: include of a long sleeve shirt with a long sleeve jumper.
- 22:41Speaker 2: And when you put a jumper on over a long sleeve.
- 22:43Speaker 1: What happens? Okay, so this is one thing that kids hate.
- 22:47Speaker 1: The sleeve of the T shirt will then ride up. Yes,
- 22:51Speaker 1: and it's like it's I don't know why, it's just
- 22:56Speaker 1: so triggering for kids when it happens. Trier girl this
- 23:00Speaker 1: morning with Lola put the jumper on, and she's very sensory,
- 23:03Speaker 1: and when that happens, when it was riding up, it
- 23:05Speaker 1: was like she had a scorpion under her jumper.
- 23:08Speaker 3: She was like, God, Daddy, I'm going to solve this
- 23:12Speaker 3: problem for you. Well, April, my wife is going to
- 23:15Speaker 3: solve this for you. This is Oscar this morning putting
- 23:18Speaker 3: on his little raincoat jacket thing over a long sleep.
- 23:21Speaker 1: Okay, this better be good. She's cracked the code. See
- 23:24Speaker 1: what she's done there.
- 23:25Speaker 2: Oscar pulls the sleeve up to the palm of his hand.
- 23:28Speaker 3: He puts a finger over it so his hand can
- 23:31Speaker 3: still go through, and once he gets through, its close enough.
- 23:35Speaker 3: He lets go and the sleeve ends up perfectly where
- 23:38Speaker 3: the sleeve is.
- 23:39Speaker 1: What does Oscar think of this hack? He does it
- 23:41Speaker 1: on his own. He's learnt it.
- 23:43Speaker 3: It's not just here do this, it's like, here do
- 23:46Speaker 3: this and he just continues.
- 23:48Speaker 1: To do it. He did that without anyone even asking.
- 23:50Speaker 1: If only kids out there would know about this hack,
- 23:53Speaker 1: the amount of trauma that would be reduced in the
- 23:55Speaker 1: lives of young children all around the country, especially now
- 23:58Speaker 1: being winter, even around the world old.
- 24:01Speaker 3: If seasons are a world Is this the best hack
- 24:03Speaker 3: that we've ever had?
- 24:04Speaker 1: I think it might be.
- 24:06Speaker 3: I think it's the most simplest, cost effective.
- 24:09Speaker 1: How can we monetize this, jess Jessica, you're about to
- 24:13Speaker 1: say something, Oh, Jesse, hang on, this rich coming from
- 24:18Speaker 1: someone with their kids? Are we dumb? Ash? Maybe? Is
- 24:23Speaker 1: this something that is just such common knowledge that it's
- 24:27Speaker 1: almost laughable that we don't know? Yeah? I hope so?
- 24:31Speaker 1: Is this be hilarious? Are we just we effectively told
- 24:36Speaker 1: people to tie their shoelacers before leaving the house? Is
- 24:39Speaker 1: that I always do that after I leave the house?
- 24:43Speaker 1: I mean, we'll find out. Let us know. If this
- 24:48Speaker 1: is such common knowledge that it's laughable that we're telling
- 24:51Speaker 1: you about it, we will withhold informing you about any
- 24:55Speaker 1: more hacks.
- 24:56Speaker 3: Oh yeah, nah, I think this is great. I think
- 25:02Speaker 3: around life changing.
- 25:05Speaker 1: I think too, and I want to be responsible for
- 25:09Speaker 1: expanding the knowledge of parents not just in Australia again
- 25:14Speaker 1: all around the world. Right now, we will be responsible
- 25:17Speaker 1: for improving the lives of so many, so many.
- 25:20Speaker 3: And I will say we could get it from the
- 25:23Speaker 3: horse's mouth because we are going to call.
- 25:25Speaker 2: April about a separate issue later on the track.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Later in this episode we can talk to about what
- 25:30Speaker 1: other information is she withholding from us?
- 25:32Speaker 2: So if you stick around then you might find out.
- 25:34Speaker 1: How's a fucking good tease? Do you want to do? Yes?
- 25:41Speaker 3: Math, Sorry, yes, Matthew. It is time for one of
- 25:45Speaker 3: our favorite segments. I'd say arguably the favorite, the favorite,
- 25:49Speaker 3: and I would say the song is Aria Award nominee potential.
- 25:53Speaker 1: Well said, let's play it, you tly regression. You don't
- 26:01Speaker 1: want to sol just tell me why your parent?
- 26:10Speaker 3: Do you want my crand party at the shop?
- 26:14Speaker 1: You don't want advice from strangers? Go and tell me
- 26:19Speaker 1: what is your parent? Are we gonna have any tap
- 26:25Speaker 1: on the shoulders from the record the record the record
- 26:28Speaker 1: label to say hey, we're.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Just showing that jumperhack and they'll back right off and
- 26:33Speaker 3: they're like, you gave us something. We do not want
- 26:35Speaker 3: to go to court with these these guys.
- 26:39Speaker 1: This is my favorite segment. It is, of course parents
- 26:43Speaker 1: just it's an opportunity for any parents out there, not
- 26:46Speaker 1: just myself and Ash, but for all the listeners to
- 26:49Speaker 1: just get something off their chest that is grinding their gears,
- 26:53Speaker 1: making them a little bit of making themselves a little
- 26:55Speaker 1: bit frustrated. You need to give these situations, O gen
- 27:01Speaker 1: well said. I will say, you really teed that up.
- 27:04Speaker 1: We had a great one. Okay. Go from Hugh. Hello, Hugh,
- 27:10Speaker 1: hu from the Facebook group. Ah, you from the Facebook grof.
- 27:15Speaker 2: If you're not in the Facebook group, it's on Facebook.
- 27:18Speaker 1: He's in there. He's in there. If you want to
- 27:19Speaker 1: hang out with you, who's in there? He isn't there? Okay?
- 27:25Speaker 1: In the group?
- 27:26Speaker 3: Okay from Hugh. This is Hugh's pay rant.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Daycare centers charging you normal day rates on a public
- 27:36Speaker 1: holiday when they are closed has to be the biggest
- 27:38Speaker 1: pyramid scheme going around.
- 27:42Speaker 2: First of all pyramid scheme.
- 27:45Speaker 1: No or. He goes on to say, the poor parents
- 27:47Speaker 1: with kids booked in for Mondays and Fridays are suffering
- 27:50Speaker 1: a great injustice.
- 27:52Speaker 3: I feel like we definitely have talked about this before,
- 27:55Speaker 3: but I wasn't a rant.
- 27:57Speaker 2: It was like just in passing. I feel like a
- 28:00Speaker 2: long time ago.
- 28:01Speaker 1: Let's just clarify that this is not attack on the
- 28:05Speaker 1: daycare teachers, the staff.
- 28:07Speaker 3: No, the staff are the backbone them, rural doctors, dentists, mechanics,
- 28:14Speaker 3: the backbone of our nation. This is an attack on
- 28:18Speaker 3: the system. Fuck the system, man, the system.
- 28:23Speaker 1: I mean, it's got to be it's got to be
- 28:26Speaker 1: a fucking joke, right period. Scheme is the wrong scheme.
- 28:28Speaker 3: That's I feel like the daycares aren't going out to
- 28:32Speaker 3: other daycares giving them this idea and they're growing in numbers.
- 28:35Speaker 1: That's what a pyramid scheme is, right, correct. This is
- 28:38Speaker 1: a general scheme scheme. This is a ripoff scheme. This
- 28:42Speaker 1: is a ripoff scheme. Match, this is a this is
- 28:45Speaker 1: a gas light scheme, if you will, it's a gas
- 28:48Speaker 1: lighting ripoff scheme.
- 28:49Speaker 3: Because I'm aware orchestrated by system, the system, the daycare
- 28:55Speaker 3: system of Australia.
- 28:56Speaker 1: I'd love to know what happens in other countries. But here,
- 29:00Speaker 1: if you were booked in on a day that as
- 29:02Speaker 1: a public holiday, they still charge you full rates. You're
- 29:05Speaker 1: still paying for it. How the hell does that work?
- 29:10Speaker 1: When I was previously we had the kids and on
- 29:13Speaker 1: a Monday and a Friday.
- 29:14Speaker 3: Man, it was it didn't make any sense, as I reckon,
- 29:19Speaker 3: pet parents have something to do with it.
- 29:21Speaker 1: Hundreds of dollars every single year wasted. I mean, what
- 29:24Speaker 1: is the answer here? How how can they get away
- 29:27Speaker 1: with such blatant ripoffery.
- 29:30Speaker 3: Well, let's well, I think we should get in touch
- 29:32Speaker 3: with someone who might know who was working We used
- 29:35Speaker 3: to work for this.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Just give my beautiful.
- 29:42Speaker 2: You're like, sorry, I won't answer it.
- 29:49Speaker 1: She's a busy Hello, darling, how are.
- 29:52Speaker 3: You good what you're doing working?
- 29:57Speaker 1: Yeah? Right, you're not working for a daycare, are you?
- 30:02Speaker 1: You're not? No, I don't worry. There's a dumb joke
- 30:04Speaker 1: from it.
- 30:05Speaker 3: We had a parent message in with a rant, and
- 30:08Speaker 3: I just want to give you some context on the
- 30:10Speaker 3: rant and you having previous work experience at a childcare center.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Also, you have children in my room, April.
- 30:18Speaker 1: Can you just confirm how long did you work as
- 30:20Speaker 1: an early educator?
- 30:22Speaker 4: Oh? I think like seven or eight years?
- 30:26Speaker 2: Oh wow, wow, wow, almost a decade.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:29Speaker 3: She used to get sick so much because oh my god,
- 30:33Speaker 3: Like she would come home and she'd be like, oh
- 30:35Speaker 3: one of the kids was sick.
- 30:36Speaker 1: I'm like, great, now I'm going to be sick. Here
- 30:38Speaker 1: we go again. And when I got sacked from every
- 30:40Speaker 1: job I had the question the rant.
- 30:43Speaker 3: Is that these childcare.
- 30:45Speaker 2: Centers, the system as we call them.
- 30:48Speaker 3: Are charging people still for public holidays when they're closed.
- 30:53Speaker 1: Do you know why that might be? Uh?
- 30:57Speaker 4: Yeah, I think because you still have to pay the staff, so.
- 31:01Speaker 1: You're paying.
- 31:02Speaker 4: It's like it's like a voting for the day because
- 31:04Speaker 4: the stuff still get paid.
- 31:05Speaker 1: But they want to get paid.
- 31:07Speaker 3: Yeah, because if it wasn't a public holiday, they would
- 31:09Speaker 3: be working, right, So the I mean, I know they're
- 31:12Speaker 3: probably like, we would work, but bullshit?
- 31:15Speaker 1: Is it justifier? Though? But but you're not. We're not.
- 31:18Speaker 1: We're not using the daycare though it's closed.
- 31:22Speaker 4: Well, fun fact, the day care that we just moved
- 31:26Speaker 4: from now means he's only casually there now offers free
- 31:30Speaker 4: public holiday casual days to replace the day that you
- 31:33Speaker 4: paid for and it just started when we've already left
- 31:36Speaker 4: that one get lost.
- 31:37Speaker 1: Yeah okay, so hang on a minute.
- 31:39Speaker 3: So if okay, every kid that would be there on
- 31:43Speaker 3: the Monday they just gone, would get a free casual
- 31:46Speaker 3: day at any time to use down the track.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, is this a government thing or just.
- 31:53Speaker 4: No, I think some centers did it. Ours definitely didn't
- 31:56Speaker 4: until we left, and then they decided.
- 31:58Speaker 1: They'll do that.
- 31:58Speaker 3: And to that center, we commend you, we do on
- 32:01Speaker 3: your bravery. Yeah wow, not being compliant with a system
- 32:06Speaker 3: that is destroying families all around the country. Just breaking
- 32:09Speaker 3: away from the stigma that is it's the system.
- 32:14Speaker 4: Weirdly, like, I don't think you get charged on like
- 32:16Speaker 4: Christmas Day and stuff.
- 32:18Speaker 2: If that a public that.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Would just be on Christmas, like, wouldn't it. Yeah, where's
- 32:21Speaker 3: your Christmas spirit? Here's a bill they thought a head
- 32:24Speaker 3: for that one? Right? What else did we want to
- 32:26Speaker 3: ask her that we were just talking about before?
- 32:29Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, who taught you the jumper hack? Oh? Yes,
- 32:34Speaker 1: I have no idea.
- 32:35Speaker 4: Maybe I got taught it. Maybe it's a generational thing.
- 32:39Speaker 1: I've been taught. Poppa's got something to do with it,
- 32:41Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah, Papa would be able.
- 32:43Speaker 4: To it as a kid and whatnot.
- 32:46Speaker 3: So Papa would be able to tuck that in and
- 32:48Speaker 3: somehow land a hanky in there at the same time.
- 32:51Speaker 1: Is it not known?
- 32:51Speaker 4: It's a universal hack, isn't it?
- 32:53Speaker 3: Just?
- 32:55Speaker 1: I put Lolla's jumper on this morning and it rolled
- 32:58Speaker 1: up the sleeves underneath. We had his tantrums. I didn't
- 33:02Speaker 1: know about it until now. Well now you do.
- 33:04Speaker 4: You're welcome.
- 33:05Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you, Papa, I'll say, because that seems
- 33:08Speaker 3: very proper, like.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Probably all right, well April, what are you wearing? I mean,
- 33:15Speaker 1: I'll see you later, all right, love you you later.
- 33:19Speaker 1: I have good day, Love you, love you, love you.
- 33:22Speaker 1: Bye bye you hang.
- 33:25Speaker 3: Up one three you go, bye bye bye.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Oh my god, you guys are so adorable.
- 33:32Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Well there you go.
- 33:38Speaker 2: So I say, fair rant on that pair. Rant, See
- 33:44Speaker 2: what did you do? Just shake it ahead.
- 33:49Speaker 1: You've missed this. I say, that's fair rant.
- 33:52Speaker 3: And hopefully they can suggest to their childcare center that
- 33:56Speaker 3: others are doing this and that's actually a pyramid scheme.
- 33:59Speaker 1: Then if you're if you're a daycare listening in, if
- 34:03Speaker 1: you're like a daycare ceo, just think about it, Okay,
- 34:07Speaker 1: think about who you're hurting. Yeah, with your government mandated legislation.
- 34:14Speaker 1: They're like, our hands are tired, but we'll give you
- 34:17Speaker 1: three days. If that's what you want. That's you should.
- 34:19Speaker 2: We go into some questions to finish off today.
- 34:21Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got some questions here, ash and we have
- 34:24Speaker 1: recently been doing a little segment in the listener question.
- 34:29Speaker 1: We have been doing fucking Jesus can't talk, Yes, Ash
- 34:33Speaker 1: we should, and we've been doing the last couple of weeks,
- 34:37Speaker 1: we've been doing like our top three it and one
- 34:41Speaker 1: that really kicked off was things you Shouldn't say to
- 34:44Speaker 1: a parent?
- 34:45Speaker 3: And the list is it really is endless, Like there's
- 34:48Speaker 3: so many things you shouldn't say to a parent.
- 34:50Speaker 1: So I thought it would be remiss of us not
- 34:53Speaker 1: to do things you shouldn't say to a parent.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Cart I love it. Put some silly music behind that.
- 34:58Speaker 3: Please do, because you're a bunch of clowns. If you
- 35:02Speaker 3: say any of this to a parent, thank you. All right,
- 35:06Speaker 3: So we've got a list here, yeah, and we're going
- 35:08Speaker 3: to just rattle off a few and then if you've
- 35:11Speaker 3: got any that you want to share with us, please
- 35:13Speaker 3: on the Facebook group, Instagram, TikTok, whatever you want to do,
- 35:17Speaker 3: shout it into the universe and we'll try and pick.
- 35:20Speaker 1: It up and put it inside. Don't do that. Definitely,
- 35:23Speaker 1: definitely messages smoke signals. Definitely message us to please. If
- 35:28Speaker 1: people are like I was screaming out for weeks.
- 35:30Speaker 2: I'll hear you go.
- 35:33Speaker 3: On, well here, okay, first one, This one really infuriates
- 35:38Speaker 3: me when someone tries to resonate with what you're saying
- 35:41Speaker 3: by saying, you.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Know I'm going to do I have a dog, so
- 35:44Speaker 1: I totally understand. No, you do not.
- 35:47Speaker 3: They think what they're doing is lightening the load on you, saying, oh,
- 35:52Speaker 3: we do that too, so you don't feel so abnormal.
- 35:54Speaker 1: Don't talk to us. It would be like someone losing
- 35:57Speaker 1: their arm in a car accident and going, I know
- 35:59Speaker 1: that's like I once got a splinter.
- 36:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I cut my fingernail too short.
- 36:03Speaker 1: One day it's irritating and you're like, I haven't had
- 36:07Speaker 1: a lean, my limb is missing.
- 36:09Speaker 3: Yeah I did not just say my look, it was
- 36:14Speaker 3: the next one.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Okay. Oh, it goes so fast, you'll miss this one day.
- 36:22Speaker 1: I fucking hate when people say that.
- 36:26Speaker 2: Don't wish the days, like admit the messy.
- 36:28Speaker 1: Hands on the walls. One day that'll be gone and
- 36:31Speaker 1: you miss it. Like when will I miss that? Yeah?
- 36:35Speaker 1: I don't. I get the premise of it.
- 36:37Speaker 3: It's like you'll miss the like you'll miss the little
- 36:40Speaker 3: cuddle tomit the kids. Yeah get that, I get that,
- 36:42Speaker 3: But I'm wishing I get home and I'm like, it's
- 36:45Speaker 3: four o'clock.
- 36:45Speaker 1: I'm like, funk, I wish it was six o'clock. I
- 36:47Speaker 1: am not going to miss like begging my child to
- 36:51Speaker 1: eat a mouthful of their dinner and then putting up
- 36:54Speaker 1: with a child that is screaming that it hates you
- 36:56Speaker 1: because you're trying to wash its hair. Oh man, there's
- 36:59Speaker 1: lots of ads are parenting a young child that I
- 37:01Speaker 1: will definitely not miss, And you trying to say that,
- 37:06Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm going to miss those parts of parenting.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Do you have any people who say that we're not
- 37:12Speaker 1: a fucking hands on parent.
- 37:14Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's usually the grandparents saying that sort of shit. Right,
- 37:19Speaker 3: if a young person says that they've been brainwashed by
- 37:21Speaker 3: an older person, idiots for sure.
- 37:23Speaker 1: All right.
- 37:24Speaker 3: Next one, which is sort of like similar to the
- 37:28Speaker 3: grandparent thing. They love to do this one, and I'll
- 37:31Speaker 3: try to put some context around it.
- 37:32Speaker 1: For example, if your.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Child's not sleeping, that's a really it's a low loan
- 37:36Speaker 3: through that one. And my mum would say it, and
- 37:39Speaker 3: other mum's mums would say it where they're like, have
- 37:42Speaker 3: you tried this?
- 37:46Speaker 1: Have you tried putting them in bed?
- 37:48Speaker 3: Yes, like fuck off, Like it's always that generation you
- 37:53Speaker 3: do that.
- 37:53Speaker 1: Sorry, I've done that. A number of any parents out
- 37:56Speaker 1: there that I've said that too. And this is when
- 37:58Speaker 1: I had Marley, who was a great sleeper, and I
- 38:00Speaker 1: was just like, have you tried to swaddle? Swaddling? Try
- 38:05Speaker 1: try a different dummy.
- 38:06Speaker 2: Or what we do is we sorry you do?
- 38:10Speaker 1: Okay? I have said that. No one's person.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Don't say that. Don't say have you tried?
- 38:14Speaker 3: I know it's a suggestion and very lighthearted, but it's
- 38:17Speaker 3: usually coming from a place of, like I say, from grandparents,
- 38:21Speaker 3: where they think whatever they say is right just because
- 38:23Speaker 3: of their age and their experience. It's like you used
- 38:26Speaker 3: to beat kids in your generation.
- 38:30Speaker 1: You tried beating that kid. Just always remind my mom
- 38:32Speaker 1: about that, and she's.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Like, I never I always say to my parents our
- 38:35Speaker 3: woodenspoons for cooking. Only when you announce her expecting and
- 38:43Speaker 3: someone says, oh, were you trying? No, it was an accident,
- 38:48Speaker 3: starting your business, an abortion, Oh my god.
- 38:52Speaker 1: It's none of your business. It's like, look, I didn't
- 38:56Speaker 1: know you were trying. No, you were trying. I didn't
- 38:58Speaker 1: know that you were mounting her. What's that about?
- 39:01Speaker 3: What's that about Oh my god, it doesn't matter really
- 39:05Speaker 3: if you ask me. But look, we're all I think
- 39:07Speaker 3: we're all guilty of saying that once here and.
- 39:09Speaker 1: There next one. This is just like back in my day.
- 39:16Speaker 3: Oh, never start a sentence to a parent if you're older.
- 39:22Speaker 1: I really hate the grandparents. I'm really into it. Sorry,
- 39:25Speaker 1: pop up and my parents.
- 39:27Speaker 2: I guess they exist too.
- 39:28Speaker 3: It's it's like, yeah, back, if you're going to start
- 39:31Speaker 3: a sentence with back in my day, just back right up.
- 39:36Speaker 1: I'm going to flip this and instead of attacking the
- 39:39Speaker 1: older generation, I'm going to attack the younger generation. Here
- 39:42Speaker 1: he is, okay, yeah, I'm becoming more TEENI every week
- 39:49Speaker 1: down down those electric bikes when they and like, this
- 39:55Speaker 1: doesn't happen as much anymore, but because I dog working
- 39:58Speaker 1: an office. But if anyone on a Friday or Thursday,
- 40:01Speaker 1: they say, have you got any exciting plans for the weekend,
- 40:04Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm going to go to a park
- 40:07Speaker 1: for a couple of hours.
- 40:08Speaker 2: Well, buy another park for a few hours, and.
- 40:10Speaker 1: I maybe watched some cartoons with the kids, And that
- 40:14Speaker 1: is what I'm doing.
- 40:14Speaker 3: Get some broken sleep. I'm gonna yell at a child
- 40:16Speaker 3: to try and eat all weekend.
- 40:18Speaker 1: I'll do a couple of loads of washing.
- 40:19Speaker 3: Yeah, they'll have to follow me everything I do around
- 40:22Speaker 3: all the time. It's such a good way to be like, hey,
- 40:25Speaker 3: it really screams have a good shit weekend.
- 40:31Speaker 1: The weekend just gone. That gurnying that was the highlight reprieve.
- 40:35Speaker 1: That was the highlight. Dude. People were like, did you
- 40:37Speaker 1: get up too much?
- 40:38Speaker 3: I'm like, I washed some pavers and that was the
- 40:42Speaker 3: highlight of my week.
- 40:44Speaker 1: It was like a holiday fuck. And if they came
- 40:46Speaker 1: near me, I just hit it with the water. Perfect.
- 40:49Speaker 1: Last one.
- 40:52Speaker 2: This is so triggering. This last one's triggering me. Come on,
- 40:58Speaker 2: why do I feel like this.
- 40:59Speaker 3: Is coming from a grandparent as well or just.
- 41:02Speaker 1: Someone with older kids?
- 41:04Speaker 3: They say, if you think this is hard, just wait until.
- 41:11Speaker 1: I get that all the time with the girls, because
- 41:14Speaker 1: they're like, oh, teenage girls, that's another kettle of fish.
- 41:18Speaker 1: Oh my god, especially because you've were all girls. I
- 41:21Speaker 1: know you want to manage my expectations, but just the
- 41:24Speaker 1: ignorance is bliss.
- 41:25Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I don't want someone being like with Oscar.
- 41:27Speaker 3: It's like, you think it's hard, now wait till he's
- 41:29Speaker 3: committing petty crime. Waiting until I'll tell you right now,
- 41:36Speaker 3: I'm fucking waiting. Maybe they'll lock him up and I'll
- 41:40Speaker 3: get some real reprieve.
- 41:41Speaker 1: Ash before we go. I have one very quick question
- 41:44Speaker 1: that I'd love to ask you on behalf of Gemma.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Hello Jemma.
- 41:48Speaker 3: This was submitted in the Facebook group a number of
- 41:50Speaker 3: weeks ago Jemmy with a JA or Jemmy with the
- 41:52Speaker 3: G Jemmy with the G.
- 41:53Speaker 1: Jimmy goff gg good game. She says, advice what to
- 42:00Speaker 1: do when your toddler comes home from daycare and starts
- 42:03Speaker 1: pinching you non stop. She finds it hilarious. No matter
- 42:07Speaker 1: what we try or say help.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Gemma finds it hilarious or the child finds it hilarious. No,
- 42:12Speaker 3: I think the child or God first of all, Matt,
- 42:15Speaker 3: we don't give it. You're being assaulted right now.
- 42:18Speaker 1: Yeah, call the police. That's my advice. Yeah, call the police.
- 42:23Speaker 1: And sometimes you know, police will do like a home
- 42:26Speaker 1: visit to try and scare a child. I think that's
- 42:29Speaker 1: what you need. That's not bad, that's not about it.
- 42:32Speaker 3: I think you could go because they're obviously learning it
- 42:34Speaker 3: from somewhere, and I think if they're coming home from daycare.
- 42:39Speaker 3: They're learning it there, so to outlearn it, it's their responsibility.
- 42:43Speaker 3: So what I would do is I would threaten the
- 42:45Speaker 3: teacher and say I'll start pinching you every time that
- 42:49Speaker 3: kid pinches me, unless you teach it out of us.
- 42:53Speaker 1: But again, we love our early educators in this country.
- 42:56Speaker 1: I'm out of going my kid hit me.
- 42:58Speaker 2: Every time my kid hits me, I'm going to hit you.
- 43:01Speaker 1: When she's getting locked up for assaulting teachers. I just
- 43:05Speaker 1: pinch back the child. Give the child a taste of
- 43:07Speaker 1: its own medicine. Yeah that too. Do you like it?
- 43:09Speaker 1: You don't like it?
- 43:10Speaker 3: If that reminds me of like when I, like, I
- 43:13Speaker 3: tried to do a little learning moment with MACI where
- 43:16Speaker 3: it was like she was getting what was she doing?
- 43:22Speaker 3: I said to her, Okay, look, how would it feel
- 43:25Speaker 3: if you ask mommy and daddy to do something and
- 43:27Speaker 3: we just didn't do it for you? How would you feel?
- 43:30Speaker 3: And she's like sad. I'm like, so, when we ask
- 43:32Speaker 3: you to do something for us and you don't do it,
- 43:34Speaker 3: how do you think.
- 43:35Speaker 1: We feel you're a good parent?
- 43:37Speaker 2: Sad?
- 43:37Speaker 3: And I was like, so do you understand? And she's
- 43:40Speaker 3: like nah, No. I was like, okay, well I'm going
- 43:42Speaker 3: to pinch you now, so fuck.
- 43:44Speaker 1: She's like, stop talking to me. I want to kill
- 43:45Speaker 1: some Lego toys. I want to pinch the head of
- 43:47Speaker 1: a Lego toy. Ash. Yes, if you have joined this podcast,
