- 7:06Speaker 1: a lot. I was like, oh, go on to us.
- 7:12Speaker 1: So last night I had to send a very awkward email. Oh,
- 7:19Speaker 1: and it was one that I've been putting off for
- 7:20Speaker 1: a while.
- 7:21Speaker 3: You're kicking someone out of dance class. Were you on
- 7:24Speaker 3: the same level.
- 7:25Speaker 1: I think this is one of the most as a parent,
- 7:28Speaker 1: one of the hardest things you have to do. I
- 7:32Speaker 1: sent an email last night that I've been putting off
- 7:35Speaker 1: for at least two weeks, and it was an email
- 7:38Speaker 1: to break up with my daycare.
- 7:44Speaker 3: We the same one and Andrew John's goes to.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Well he's gone now, so that's why I'm leaving.
- 7:49Speaker 3: He's gone.
- 7:49Speaker 2: We're all going to the mutiney a why Marley's going
- 7:55Speaker 2: to be school.
- 7:56Speaker 1: So Marley's heading off to Kinny next year. So Marley's
- 7:58Speaker 1: wrapping up there and we are still the daycare that
- 8:02Speaker 1: we used to be at when we lived over in Bronti.
- 8:05Speaker 1: So just it's the long I'm going to justify this.
- 8:07Speaker 1: It's about I worked out the math ash and it's
- 8:10Speaker 1: about about an hour return trip. It takes me so
- 8:16Speaker 1: let me you know, it doesn't It sounds like a lot.
- 8:18Speaker 1: When I say it to Laura, She's like, you're an idiot.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Doesn't take that long, And I'm like, it does. It's
- 8:23Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. There right, fifteen minutes.
- 8:25Speaker 3: There, thirty minutes to get my coffee.
- 8:27Speaker 1: It's it takes me about twenty I don't know how
- 8:31Speaker 1: long it takes you.
- 8:32Speaker 3: People laps up and down Bondo Bee's quick PERV.
- 8:36Speaker 1: Did that once. It takes about twenty minutes to get
- 8:38Speaker 1: them out of the car into daycare, do the drop
- 8:41Speaker 1: off back in the car. If there's no parking, so
- 8:44Speaker 1: you got to like park the cake at a walk.
- 8:45Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to do a couple of loops to
- 8:47Speaker 1: try and get a past.
- 8:47Speaker 3: Just check the hazards on these days, bro, Just leave, dude.
- 8:50Speaker 1: They have they know it's opposite to school, and they
- 8:53Speaker 1: have parking inspectors every second day, every second day.
- 8:58Speaker 3: I can't give just a fucking breaks.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Parents are break they are there like it's the amount
- 9:06Speaker 1: of rain.
- 9:06Speaker 3: Drover is getting fines in bundos unbelievable.
- 9:10Speaker 1: So you've got to get a park So then by
- 9:12Speaker 1: the time I drive home fifteen minutes, it's been essentially
- 9:15Speaker 1: it's been a day I've been.
- 9:17Speaker 3: That's a day job.
- 9:18Speaker 1: I have to park, I have to pack supplies in
- 9:20Speaker 1: the car. I'm going to be going for at least
- 9:22Speaker 1: by the time I get home, I'm going to pick
- 9:23Speaker 1: the kids back up.
- 9:25Speaker 3: It's a long journey.
- 9:26Speaker 1: It's a nightmare. So I've got them in a daycare
- 9:28Speaker 1: that's down the road from where we currently live. And
- 9:30Speaker 1: also it's where my sister takes her kid. Yes, so
- 9:34Speaker 1: now we can share the drop off.
- 9:37Speaker 2: I know who's going to be doing the drop off
- 9:38Speaker 2: from the begin here on now my sister, especially with
- 9:42Speaker 2: half hours Marley's new.
- 9:43Speaker 3: School from this walking distance. Ah, that's the dream.
- 9:47Speaker 1: It's great.
- 9:48Speaker 3: Where similar conundrum at.
- 9:50Speaker 2: The moment because we were in Warriywood went to two
- 9:52Speaker 2: kindy's at each end of the street.
- 9:54Speaker 3: Right, perfect, Now I'm like a ten minute drive away.
- 9:59Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw you doing a drop off the other day.
- 10:00Speaker 2: I was like ashs like how far is it?
- 10:06Speaker 1: Well, even to the point last night we're driving home
- 10:09Speaker 1: and sometimes a bit of a late one yesterday, but
- 10:12Speaker 1: Lola will fall asleep in the drive home. It's a nightmare.
- 10:15Speaker 1: It's a nightmare. So I've made the decision. It was
- 10:18Speaker 1: a big, big call because I remember last time we
- 10:21Speaker 1: changed that daycare, it was like the change of routine.
- 10:25Speaker 1: It was a nightmare.
- 10:26Speaker 2: New people, new teachers. She's going with the going with
- 10:31Speaker 2: other family.
- 10:32Speaker 1: With my niece and they're the same days as well,
- 10:35Speaker 1: so it's just going to work out perfectly. But then
- 10:37Speaker 1: I so I sent the herem my last night, partly
- 10:40Speaker 1: because my sister was like to Lola, hey, you must
- 10:44Speaker 1: be so excited, like we're going to be on at
- 10:46Speaker 1: the same daycare.
- 10:46Speaker 3: And Lola was like, am I you just sort about
- 10:48Speaker 3: ghosting and stop anymore?
- 10:50Speaker 1: They still charge me they got my bank detail.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Yeah, it was much better.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Em I would rather pay the money to avoid the No,
- 10:57Speaker 1: it's going to happen.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Now you're going to bump into someone from that scoo
- 11:00Speaker 2: like telling he works, like, I haven't seen you kid
- 11:03Speaker 2: in a while.
- 11:03Speaker 1: But that was this morning, dude, oh shop. I sent
- 11:07Speaker 1: the email, the break up email last night, being like
- 11:09Speaker 1: just confirming because because Lola was also kind of telling
- 11:13Speaker 1: other people, I was getting parano that she was telling
- 11:15Speaker 1: everyone that she's wrapping up. Yeah, And so then I
- 11:18Speaker 1: was like, well, I've got.
- 11:19Speaker 3: To come in. You've got to come clean, and I've
- 11:21Speaker 3: come clean.
- 11:22Speaker 1: And then this morning on drop off, the director who
- 11:25Speaker 1: was lovely.
- 11:26Speaker 3: Can I just say you have to say that.
- 11:28Speaker 1: She's really nice.
- 11:31Speaker 3: She was up in Lola's room waiting for she was
- 11:34Speaker 3: waiting for you.
- 11:35Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, hey, how are you
- 11:38Speaker 1: and she's like good, and I was.
- 11:39Speaker 3: Like, got your email last night? She didn't, and she
- 11:43Speaker 3: was like looking at me and going what are you doing?
- 11:44Speaker 3: And I was like are you sweating? Sorry?
- 11:47Speaker 1: I didn't mean to. It's not you, it's me, And
- 11:50Speaker 1: she didn't know what I was talking about. And then
- 11:52Speaker 1: I just was like, we're not coming back, threw the
- 11:58Speaker 1: bag down of it, can't, got in the car and
- 12:02Speaker 1: drove off.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Well how much notice do you have to give it?

- 12:08Speaker 3: something little plenty of notice.
- 12:09Speaker 1: We're not wrapping up until end of December. But it's

- 14:07Speaker 1: That was at Macy. She does what she wants, she does.
- 14:11Speaker 1: She doesn't answer to anybody.
- 14:13Speaker 3: I know.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Lola is now at a stage I can't even remember
- 14:19Speaker 1: how we taught Marley to wipe her ound bump. We
- 14:21Speaker 1: still do like nine percent of the wiping. But Lola
- 14:24Speaker 1: is now like, I'll do it.
- 14:25Speaker 3: It's like, this is my responsibility. I've got this.
- 14:29Speaker 1: And she is terrible at wiping her own bump. She'll

- 14:54Speaker 2: like fucking leg of a jair. It's fucking huge.
- 15:00Speaker 1: Is listening to this right now, going, that's wrong, there's
- 15:05Speaker 1: no science that or actually, can we look that up? So, jess,
- 15:08Speaker 1: our producers just said that women have slower bowel movements,
- 15:12Speaker 1: so they pooh less, so they go.
- 15:13Speaker 3: And hence why they're bigger.
- 15:16Speaker 1: You said, I don't want to get in this argument.
- 15:18Speaker 1: I don't want to stoop to your level.
- 15:19Speaker 2: Stoop on down, baby, Okay, sorry, So Lola's I think
- 15:23Speaker 2: her arms they're too short. You mentioned a dinosaur tronto wipers,
- 15:30Speaker 2: but it's kind of it's like Lola, she can't she
- 15:32Speaker 2: can't quite get like in there, like to wipe her bumb.
- 15:35Speaker 1: So what she does is she just gets heaps of
- 15:37Speaker 1: toilet paper, right, just gets shitloads of it. This is
- 15:41Speaker 1: how Lola wipes her bumb. She then just like wedges
- 15:44Speaker 1: it between her cheeks and then so she's got like
- 15:48Speaker 1: hanging out a bum and then she waits here for
- 15:50Speaker 1: about thirty seconds. Then she's like and then she pulls
- 15:54Speaker 1: it out like it's absorbing it. Yeah yeah, and then
- 15:58Speaker 1: puts it in the toilet. If I come in and
- 16:00Speaker 1: I go, can I just can I just check? She's like,
- 16:03Speaker 1: what for? I'm good, so you're back. Sometimes if I
- 16:09Speaker 1: try and take it out of her backside whilst it's
- 16:12Speaker 1: there for that thirty second period, She's like.
- 16:14Speaker 3: What are you doing? Hasn't fully absorbed yet.
- 16:17Speaker 1: I'm not, and I'm trying to. I try to explain
- 16:21Speaker 1: to her, Now you've got to got to wipe.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't it's not like a paper towel as
- 16:28Speaker 2: just soak your shit into it.
- 16:30Speaker 1: She's got paper towels and taller paper completely fixed up. Yeah,
- 16:34Speaker 1: easy mistake to make, but she can't. I'm trying to
- 16:37Speaker 1: want to say to her, just wait till your arms
- 16:40Speaker 1: grow a bit longer and then you can wipe your
- 16:43Speaker 1: own bum. It's very difficult. I didn't have this problem
- 16:45Speaker 1: with Marley.
- 16:46Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm trying to think, like I think.
- 16:51Speaker 2: I just said to Oscar, if you don't wipe your
- 16:53Speaker 2: bum and I've got to do it, then you've got
- 16:55Speaker 2: to wipe my bum.
- 16:57Speaker 3: I remember that number worked. So now he's in.
- 17:00Speaker 2: As far as I know, I don't even check it anymore.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Probably's walking around out there stinging like shit this morning.
- 17:03Speaker 3: I have no idea what's going on. He still he's
- 17:08Speaker 3: doing well, but yeah, it's I don't know what do
- 17:12Speaker 3: you do?
- 17:13Speaker 1: Like why I suppose like, well, whenever lolog disappears, she
- 17:17Speaker 1: doesn't tell us when she doesn't tell us when she
- 17:19Speaker 1: does a ship anymore. So we've got to now try
- 17:20Speaker 1: and catch her before she comes and the act. Yeah,
- 17:23Speaker 1: she comes out, her hands smell like shit. She still
- 17:25Speaker 1: her backside smells like shit. And then there's nomally just
- 17:28Speaker 1: just shit everywhere.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not looking forward to Macie because Macy she
- 17:32Speaker 2: just takes off to the to the party and then
- 17:34Speaker 2: I like look down the hallway and she's sitting there
- 17:35Speaker 2: and she's.
- 17:35Speaker 3: Like, what are you doing?
- 17:40Speaker 2: So happy, so content, but like not even Sometimes you
- 17:42Speaker 2: just bring the potty out and put it in front
- 17:43Speaker 2: of the TV and just sit down and just love.
- 17:46Speaker 2: It's not a seat mate, I've got a situation. I
- 17:52Speaker 2: love that that I would love to run by. It
- 17:53Speaker 2: didn't happen to me, It happened to April. Shout out
- 17:55Speaker 2: to April.
- 17:56Speaker 3: April is my wife of how many years? Don't know, five? No, six, no? Seven?
- 18:05Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, veteran, it's neillly finished. Sorry that's a joke.
- 18:13Speaker 1: Sorry, bub, but that's a couple of jokes.
- 18:15Speaker 2: She hates that use it and one of them is
- 18:17Speaker 2: that where it's like, yeah, marriage is only the last
- 18:20Speaker 2: like ten years, like overset me one. The other one
- 18:23Speaker 2: is where I'm a divorcee's dream because I've had a
- 18:25Speaker 2: sect me.
- 18:27Speaker 1: I mean, I can understand why she wouldn't like these jokes.
- 18:31Speaker 3: I know, I know, Sorry, Bobe. So this is April situation.
- 18:36Speaker 2: So every Thursday and Friday at down the local library,
- 18:39Speaker 2: they do I think called rhyme Time.
- 18:41Speaker 1: I love rhyme Time.
- 18:42Speaker 3: I've mentioned it before. It's great. It's a free it's
- 18:44Speaker 3: a free initiative by the local council. Usually.
- 18:47Speaker 2: On this particular day, April went to ram time with Macy.
- 18:51Speaker 2: She go on her owncause that'd be weird. She went
- 18:53Speaker 2: with and Macy had a balloon with her, took the
- 18:57Speaker 2: balloo with her. Anyway, They're at time and Macy's placed
- 19:02Speaker 2: the balloon down and gone off to do rhyme time
- 19:05Speaker 2: and led to coloring in And in the time that
- 19:08Speaker 2: Macy's gone, a little boy has seen the balloon come
- 19:12Speaker 2: over and to inspect said balloon because he's now interested
- 19:16Speaker 2: in the balloon.
- 19:17Speaker 1: That the kids love a balloon? Do love a balloon?
- 19:19Speaker 2: April's thought, he's playing with this balloon, And the mom
- 19:22Speaker 2: was there and like it's just like, yeah, that's fine.
- 19:24Speaker 3: Macy's off doing her own thing, and Ryan time's wrapping up,
- 19:28Speaker 3: and the mom tries to get the balloon off the
- 19:30Speaker 3: little boy, and April goes.
- 19:35Speaker 2: April looks at Macy, and Macy's still doing her own
- 19:37Speaker 2: thing and goes, look, she's sort of forgot that exists.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Now he can have that balloon, he can have it. Yeah,
- 19:46Speaker 3: so you can have the balloon. Macey's not forgot it
- 19:50Speaker 3: even existed. And then.
- 19:54Speaker 2: And then once we've April's made that call, right, Macy
- 19:59Speaker 2: come over and she was like, where's where's my balloon?
- 20:03Speaker 2: Her balloons, you know, And she's getting more and more
- 20:06Speaker 2: agitated to where the balloon is?
- 20:08Speaker 3: Where the fuck is my balloon. The mom of the
- 20:10Speaker 3: other kid has pretended to ignore.
- 20:16Speaker 2: The cries of Macy and then be lined for the
- 20:19Speaker 2: door with the kid and the balloon, so that her
- 20:23Speaker 2: kid is not the one having the meltdown. Macy's having
- 20:26Speaker 2: a meltdown, and this woman be lined to the door
- 20:30Speaker 2: out and gone, I.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Don't blame her. I don't blame her.
- 20:35Speaker 3: So she has to be right to do that.
- 20:37Speaker 1: She's been given the balloon, has been given the balloon
- 20:39Speaker 1: She's like, I don't want this yelling kid a real
- 20:41Speaker 1: my rimetime, billy.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Let's go as an adult and you see a kid,
- 20:46Speaker 2: especially little girl, about to cry starting to well up.
- 20:49Speaker 2: If you will, I will, then surely you'll be like, look,
- 20:53Speaker 2: it's fine. Look I know you try to do the
- 20:55Speaker 2: right thing for my kid.
- 20:56Speaker 1: No, she's just being respectful to the wishes of April,
- 20:59Speaker 1: which was to get of the balloon.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Maybe sarcasm is killing me, give us an honest opinion.
- 21:05Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's I don't know the exact
- 21:09Speaker 1: wording of how April communicated the giving of the balloon,
- 21:14Speaker 1: I do think, I think. I mean, did she say
- 21:16Speaker 1: he can have a play with it, or was she like,
- 21:18Speaker 1: take this balloon and run. No, I think it was like,
- 21:21Speaker 1: he can have it. He's really interesting.
- 21:24Speaker 3: I don't want him to have her. I mean, she
- 21:26Speaker 3: was thinking of the mum, but then the mum was
- 21:28Speaker 3: not thinking. The mums weren't on the same page. No,
- 21:32Speaker 3: she's gone.
- 21:33Speaker 2: But April said it was so obvious that she saw
- 21:36Speaker 2: what was happening with Macy and quickly ushered her son
- 21:40Speaker 2: out of there, so that it was him to.
- 21:42Speaker 1: Not get the have the melt did April stop her,
- 21:45Speaker 1: Did she say, hey, give us back the balloon.
- 21:46Speaker 3: April's like, I didn't know what to do. I honestly
- 21:48Speaker 3: didn't know what to do.
- 21:49Speaker 2: He had to comfort Macy while she had a huge
- 21:52Speaker 2: meltdown in a library over this balloon.
- 21:56Speaker 1: God way to ruin rhyme time.
- 21:58Speaker 3: Totally.
- 21:59Speaker 1: But I, as the parent, you've got to like, there's
- 22:03Speaker 1: so many times have been at the park and there's
- 22:05Speaker 1: been something that another kid's you know, it's caught eye of,
- 22:10Speaker 1: and you're kind of like, I know it's all right,
- 22:12Speaker 1: like my one's occupied by the swing, but you know that,
- 22:16Speaker 1: like that balloon belongs to Macy.
- 22:19Speaker 3: Oh, totally.
- 22:19Speaker 2: I would never I would have been like, but I
- 22:22Speaker 2: don't know what I've been like if the kid's right
- 22:26Speaker 2: in front of you, this poor kid, and he's holding
- 22:28Speaker 2: the balloon, we.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Don't know how much that kid likes balloons though, well
- 22:32Speaker 3: obviously really like this one a lot.
- 22:34Speaker 1: It'd be like if I gave you Laura I was.
- 22:38Speaker 2: I was going to say, it's kind of like a
- 22:40Speaker 2: Power Ranger situation. There's only one Pink Power Ranger, but
- 22:44Speaker 2: there's a Red Power Ranger and all the other boy
- 22:47Speaker 2: Power Rangers that are different colors. This reminds me of
- 22:51Speaker 2: a childhood story where it.
- 22:53Speaker 1: Was like the Pink Power Ranger used to actually be
- 22:56Speaker 1: a boy, but.
- 22:57Speaker 2: Only it's like the red Power Ranger saying to the
- 22:59Speaker 2: blue Power Ranger you can date the pink Power Ranger.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Now, what the fuck are you talking about? I don't know.
- 23:07Speaker 3: I don't know where Power Range got. It just reminded
- 23:09Speaker 3: me of a story.
- 23:10Speaker 2: It was like when we were in preschool when we
- 23:12Speaker 2: played Power Rangers, there would be one girl that we
- 23:16Speaker 2: really liked, and she would be the Pink Power Ranger
- 23:18Speaker 2: and we would share her throughout the week.
- 23:22Speaker 3: Not as nothing gross, no, I think, OK.
- 23:25Speaker 1: Look, if you're that parent who's walked out, who's ushered
- 23:29Speaker 1: their child out as quickly as they could, that's bad.
- 23:33Speaker 1: Come on.
- 23:33Speaker 2: They could have all rectified it together, where it could
- 23:36Speaker 2: have been like, hey, Macy, this little boy, is he
- 23:39Speaker 2: okay to keep playing with your balloon?
- 23:40Speaker 3: And she probably would have been like yeah, because she's
- 23:42Speaker 3: sweet like.
- 23:42Speaker 1: That, but not like, oh fuck, let's get out of
- 23:45Speaker 1: here quick, grab her by the collar, run out the door.
- 23:48Speaker 3: Literally. Yeah, yeah, I think she drove off.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I think Frank was even there. Frank was there, and
- 23:54Speaker 2: when after I think he went after her. No, he
- 23:58Speaker 2: went after her, but he's we're talking. He's got a
- 24:02Speaker 2: bad hip, so he didn't quite make it.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Anyway. I just thought it'd be worth seeing. What you think.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we did, Masie. Did she get another
- 24:13Speaker 1: follow up balloon or is she still balloonless?
- 24:15Speaker 2: We got home and we had to blow up another point.
- 24:18Speaker 2: I think keaven, thank you, but she cried it away apparently,
- 24:21Speaker 2: poor thing, whole thing. It's a lot to go through
- 24:23Speaker 2: it as it's a balloon get out.
- 24:25Speaker 3: But yeah, that's my that's April's shocking behavior.
- 24:29Speaker 1: Shocking behavior by a fellow parents.
- 24:31Speaker 3: And if she's listening, shame on you.
- 24:34Speaker 1: Shame my god, shame to you and your family and
- 24:37Speaker 1: your child.
- 24:38Speaker 3: I wish nothing but bad luck for you and your
- 24:40Speaker 3: family forever.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Also, I wonder how many balloons she's stolen. Get home
- 24:45Speaker 1: and she's like to the piles on the news, very good, Hey,
- 24:51Speaker 1: quick little update on the renno, quick little update on
- 24:54Speaker 1: the renou And this is just this is me offering
- 24:56Speaker 1: advice to anyone else out there who may be barking
- 25:00Speaker 1: on a renno themselves.
- 25:01Speaker 3: Don't do it.
- 25:02Speaker 1: It's an awful awful experience. It's like running a marathon.
- 25:06Speaker 1: During it, you're like, this is fucking hell doing okay,
- 25:09Speaker 1: people doing renolds.
- 25:10Speaker 2: It's a weird mix between telling people how fucking shit
- 25:14Speaker 2: it is and with a subtle brag Yeah right, I'm
- 25:18Speaker 2: an experienced renovator. I've done it before. I would never
- 25:21Speaker 2: do it again. You're in the mix of it, like, Oh,
- 25:24Speaker 2: it's a fucking nightmare, isn't it. You should see our
- 25:26Speaker 2: bathroom though.
- 25:28Speaker 3: At the front, or you just be like, oh, it's
- 25:34Speaker 3: fucking's the nightmare though, but we got cabinets to go
- 25:36Speaker 3: the way to the ceiling.
- 25:38Speaker 1: There is like there's such a hierarchy thing. It's like
- 25:40Speaker 1: being parents. You know, when you speak to a parent
- 25:42Speaker 1: who's got each oild that's younger than yours, and you're like, oh,
- 25:44Speaker 1: I'm more dominant because i've i know, more. Yeah, it's
- 25:47Speaker 1: like someone who's just starting the reno process where we're
- 25:51Speaker 1: like kind of you know, only two months in with
- 25:54Speaker 1: someone who's starting, I'm like, oh, like I remember when
- 25:56Speaker 1: I was that naive even done blamed to you.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Yeah, You're like, fuck, why would you you know, like
- 26:04Speaker 2: you really test your relationship, but have you seen our
- 26:07Speaker 2: kitchen bench.
- 26:08Speaker 1: What color poli you got? So I made a mistake. Okay,
- 26:12Speaker 1: I made a mistake. Ash, We're getting a new kitchen,
- 26:16Speaker 1: say it.
- 26:17Speaker 3: Must be nice. Yeah, I'm in my fucking seventies kitchen
- 26:21Speaker 3: at home. You're like, I'm getting another kitchen. No, we're
- 26:25Speaker 3: not getting a new one, another one.
- 26:28Speaker 1: So we're renovating the kitchen, new cabinet, tree, and new
- 26:33Speaker 1: new stone.
- 26:35Speaker 3: You can where's the stone from? Tell Us?
- 26:37Speaker 2: Tell us where the stone? It's from the heartland of Greece.
- 26:43Speaker 2: It's a fucking name getting stone, but mine's from Greece.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Oh well, I'll tell you this really quickly, tell you
- 26:48Speaker 1: real quickly. There's one type of stone, okay, it's called
- 26:52Speaker 1: taj Mahal, right, and it's from Brazil. It's like the
- 26:56Speaker 1: most common stone, right. And I was thinking to myself,
- 26:59Speaker 1: I'm like wow, I made like the mines must be
- 27:02Speaker 1: huge right in Brazil to extract this type of stone
- 27:06Speaker 1: that's sold all around the world. It's the most popular
- 27:08Speaker 1: stone pretty much, the taj Mahal beautiful stone. And I
- 27:12Speaker 1: said to the sales rep. I was like, wow, I
- 27:14Speaker 1: wonder like when do they know when to stop? Like,
- 27:17Speaker 1: you know, because obviously at some point they're going to
- 27:19Speaker 1: run out. And she goes, Yeah, they have certain quotas
- 27:21Speaker 1: on the mines, so you know, once they reached that quota,
- 27:24Speaker 1: the mine shuts down. And I was like, oh, that
- 27:26Speaker 1: makes sense. And she goes and they let the stone regenerate.
- 27:30Speaker 3: They kill all the people that mind it. But I
- 27:32Speaker 3: was like again, but I was like, regenerate, like.
- 27:35Speaker 1: Grow, I'm pretty sure it takes thousands of years for stone.
- 27:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not an archaeologist, but and me and Laura
- 27:44Speaker 3: both like do we I don't think that's how it works.
- 27:47Speaker 1: But we didn't want to be those people. We're not
- 27:49Speaker 1: those people that you've caught the salesman in a lie.
- 27:52Speaker 1: I didn't want to I didn't want to pull her up.
- 27:53Speaker 3: Okay, so I bought it anyway.
- 27:55Speaker 1: So Laura and I we've known for ages how much
- 27:59Speaker 1: stone we need. You can't get the builder to get
- 28:01Speaker 1: the stone for you, but then you've got to pay
- 28:03Speaker 1: the margin on top. So a cheaper way to do
- 28:06Speaker 1: it is they tell you how much stone you need,
- 28:08Speaker 1: You buy a slab, a couple of slabs, You go
- 28:10Speaker 1: the warehouse, you pick your stone. You save fifteen percent markup.
- 28:15Speaker 1: We you go do this running around, right, but it's
- 28:19Speaker 1: just one trip.
- 28:20Speaker 3: I was just one trip.
- 28:21Speaker 2: One trip that was a plan, and then well the
- 28:24Speaker 2: two hundred conversations you get to complain and brag to
- 28:27Speaker 2: your friends about this piece of stone.
- 28:29Speaker 1: So for weeks Laura and I are like, because the warehouse,
- 28:31Speaker 1: wes get the stone from it's an hour away, and
- 28:34Speaker 1: Laura like, fuck down a time this week?
- 28:35Speaker 3: We it next week to it next right next door
- 28:37Speaker 3: to kindy? Is it?
- 28:38Speaker 1: There is that follow through joke?
- 28:41Speaker 2: Thank you like that?
- 28:42Speaker 1: So finally on Friday, just gone, Laura and I were like,
- 28:45Speaker 1: we're going to go. We're going to drive out to
- 28:47Speaker 1: the warehouse. We know where we're going, we know what
- 28:49Speaker 1: we want, we know how many slabs, let's lock it in.
- 28:53Speaker 1: And also the builders like how I really need those slabs?
- 28:56Speaker 3: Changed?
- 28:58Speaker 1: No, Well, as we're driving out there, drop the kids
- 29:00Speaker 1: off of Kindy, you're driving out down. I go to Laura,
- 29:02Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, did you like book in with the warehouse?
- 29:05Speaker 3: Like do you have to?
- 29:06Speaker 1: And she goes, I didn't book in?
- 29:07Speaker 3: Did you book it? I didn't book in.
- 29:09Speaker 1: So for some people, again who are embarking on renow journey,
- 29:13Speaker 1: some of these places you need to book in. You
- 29:15Speaker 1: can't just rock up. We forgot to book in. We're
- 29:18Speaker 1: fifteen minutes away. We call them up and they're like,
- 29:20Speaker 1: we're packed back to back, so we can't fit you in.
- 29:24Speaker 3: I can't imagine that argument in the car. Oh my god,
- 29:28Speaker 3: Oh my god.
- 29:29Speaker 1: And then the person was loving and they were like, look,
- 29:31Speaker 1: if you're fifteen minutes away, just just come and if
- 29:34Speaker 1: we have like a spare moment, we can quickly show
- 29:36Speaker 1: you around. So Laura and I are like yelling at
- 29:40Speaker 1: each other in the car.
- 29:41Speaker 3: I know that yelling is.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Continuing as we like walk in and we didn't realize
- 29:45Speaker 1: because it's a massive warehouse everything that goes. We opened
- 29:49Speaker 1: the door and there's like a reception desk right there,
- 29:52Speaker 1: and Laura and I are like, well, you told me
- 29:54Speaker 1: that you've got to book it in.
- 29:55Speaker 3: The thing is fine, and then they're like welcome. They're probably.
- 30:03Speaker 1: It's weird if you're not arguing.
- 30:05Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're not arguing about it then.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Anyway, it turns out. Ash turns out the stone that
- 30:11Speaker 1: we want is no longer available.
- 30:16Speaker 3: It's sold out, and now they're regenerating it.
- 30:22Speaker 1: And they are in the process of moving warehouses, and
- 30:26Speaker 1: they have another warehouse. It's into state. They only do
- 30:29Speaker 1: one trip into state deliveries every three months.
- 30:33Speaker 2: Oh my god, here it is the subtle complain. Kill
- 30:40Speaker 2: me hinto bragging that I'm getting a stone for my house?
- 30:43Speaker 2: Kill me so were anyway, it's a fucking nightmare. But
- 30:46Speaker 2: it's a beautiful.
- 30:49Speaker 3: It's Italian and in the depths of Rome.
- 30:52Speaker 1: You've got to see the marbling.
- 30:54Speaker 3: It was under the Vatican directly below it. But it's
- 30:58Speaker 3: a fucking nightmare. So very good. So you have to
- 31:03Speaker 3: make sure your pain is very enjoying.
- 31:06Speaker 1: I know you're just sitting there fucking ejaculating over yourself. Sorry,
- 31:14Speaker 1: so we haven't yet got the stone. It's it's turning
- 31:18Speaker 1: out to be a little bit of an issue. But
- 31:22Speaker 1: don't worry.
- 31:23Speaker 3: Been a nice polish concrete. What's wrong with that? I
- 31:27Speaker 3: would rather drink.
- 31:29Speaker 1: My own piss polish concrete.
- 31:31Speaker 2: This is right.
- 31:32Speaker 3: You're not gonna have a kitchen bench top, are you? Anyway?
- 31:35Speaker 3: That's it off about bragging about stone and marble? Why
- 31:38Speaker 3: do you get gold?
- 31:40Speaker 1: Sold out?
- 31:42Speaker 3: Let's do some lies.
- 31:44Speaker 1: Let's do some lies.
- 31:46Speaker 3: Tell me love, tell me little.
- 31:53Speaker 2: This is a bit of a strange concept. I tried
- 31:57Speaker 2: to rope Oscar in on a line. Okay, would benefit
- 32:03Speaker 2: me and him. Yep, So recently took him. I went
- 32:08Speaker 2: with another friend and his kid to the last Manly
- 32:11Speaker 2: home game.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Did you give him a beer? Did he get drunk?
- 32:14Speaker 3: No?
- 32:14Speaker 2: Okay, okay, let's not assume that I'm just going to
- 32:17Speaker 2: solicit underage drinking.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Oscar is five. The other boys five kids at a
- 32:22Speaker 3: four and under are free.
- 32:24Speaker 2: We're in the car and we both me and the
- 32:26Speaker 2: other parent, responsible parent, We say to the kids, all right, kids,
- 32:31Speaker 2: you are four.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Which is is hard because kids are very proud of
- 32:36Speaker 1: their age.
- 32:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:37Speaker 3: Was like no, no, no, no, no, no me five, me, five,
- 32:44Speaker 3: me this many. I worked long and hard to get
- 32:47Speaker 3: to this age. Coming backwards, I.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Was like, okay, well maybe if you want to see
- 32:53Speaker 2: the football, you need to be four.
- 32:55Speaker 3: But then once we're in the stadium and.
- 32:58Speaker 2: You're gonna be sick, and I'm like, both boys, yeah, fuck,
- 33:03Speaker 2: we got fair deal.
- 33:05Speaker 3: We got there. Anyway. The whole time in line going
- 33:08Speaker 3: through the gate, they're like, we're four, wherefore we get in?
- 33:12Speaker 3: Plan we get in?
- 33:13Speaker 2: They didn't even check we get in. Oscar turns around,
- 33:17Speaker 2: he goes I'm six, just camp brunnon.
- 33:20Speaker 3: It's my birthday. But yeah, he was very confused. But
- 33:26Speaker 3: that's my life of the week.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Also, I will say to the to the staff working
- 33:31Speaker 1: at well, what's the mainly oval the fortress, the fortress,
- 33:35Speaker 1: keep an eye on Ash smuggling in kids underage.
- 33:38Speaker 3: I just want to spring in my mates.
- 33:40Speaker 2: He's four, he's four, he's thirty four. Anyway, he's my
- 33:44Speaker 2: eldest as.
- 33:45Speaker 1: I've got one here from Zaki. Shout out to Zaki, jacky,
- 33:49Speaker 1: I hope you're well.
- 33:51Speaker 3: This one is a bit.
- 33:51Speaker 1: It's like a parenting hackey lie. It's a hackey lie.
- 33:54Speaker 1: It's a hacky from Zaki. There he is Zaki a child.
- 33:59Speaker 3: That's a's name. Well, Zachary, isn't it?
- 34:02Speaker 1: No Zachi?
- 34:03Speaker 3: I e he says. The Blue Game.
- 34:06Speaker 1: It's like fifty dollars on PlayStation. Okay, very expensive. Get
- 34:11Speaker 1: you an outcomic gun, get it out. One of the
- 34:16Speaker 1: things that I enjoy most about this podcast is watching
- 34:19Speaker 1: Ash try and hide as best as he can his yawns.
- 34:26Speaker 3: I'm sorry, it's not that it's boring. I know.
- 34:29Speaker 1: I don't take offense to it at all.
- 34:30Speaker 3: You should. It's just you can yawn. It's okay, it's
- 34:36Speaker 3: a safe place. I don't know where it is anymore.
- 34:41Speaker 1: Okay, So he says the Blue game. It's fifty bucks
- 34:43Speaker 1: on PlayStation, very expensive. YouTube has the whole game like
- 34:47Speaker 1: as a walk through video, so he puts it on.
- 34:52Speaker 1: He gives the kids the PlayStation remote, and they think
- 34:55Speaker 1: they're playing the game in real life.
- 34:57Speaker 3: Happy kids.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Zero dollars.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Yes, I do the same thing with Mario Kart. We
- 35:03Speaker 3: don't have a Nintendo. I do it with the what
- 35:07Speaker 3: do you give him as a controller? Just the place one,
- 35:09Speaker 3: isn't it that one?
- 35:11Speaker 2: But also when Oscar is playing a game on the
- 35:13Speaker 2: PlayStation here and there, I give Macey a non plugged
- 35:18Speaker 2: in controller and just let her think she's played to.
- 35:22Speaker 3: The kids are dumb.
- 35:24Speaker 2: I've got a quick one here. This one is from Sammy. Hey, Sammy,
- 35:28Speaker 2: Hey Sammy, how are you Zachi?
- 35:29Speaker 1: Sammy?
- 35:30Speaker 3: Sammy underscore Stephanie. I'm confused this is one or two people?
- 35:36Speaker 3: Or do you have two first names? Can I trust her?
- 35:38Speaker 3: Some twins?
- 35:39Speaker 2: Maybe I tell my daughter if she isn't good, kind
- 35:43Speaker 2: or nice? She repeats her birthday, I.
- 35:46Speaker 3: E you'll turn five again? Can you settle down. That's
- 35:54Speaker 3: exactly how I would say to Oscar. That's all I
- 35:57Speaker 3: would say.
- 35:58Speaker 1: You do that again, you'll turn five again.
- 36:02Speaker 3: I think it's good. I think it's great. Thank you, Sammy.
- 36:05Speaker 1: I wonder he's afraid of everything. Bro, Why you talk
- 36:10Speaker 1: to him?
- 36:10Speaker 3: Don't be like that?
- 36:12Speaker 1: Maybe you're unaware of how scary you really are.
- 36:14Speaker 3: Am I scary? I can see over there trembling so
- 36:18Speaker 3: at times. At times I just starts ago, if you
- 36:22Speaker 3: gave five again? The bell? This one is from.
- 36:31Speaker 1: Brim brim Ma Graham definitely a fisherman. Brim Graham got
- 36:37Speaker 1: his name wrong. It's never been a good reader from Adelaide.
- 36:41Speaker 1: On holidays to Queensland, our parents used to tell us
- 36:45Speaker 1: that we would run out of Queensland dollars. Very good,
- 36:50Speaker 1: very good, very good.
- 36:50Speaker 3: Kids. Kids are stupid.
- 36:52Speaker 1: It's very dumb.
- 36:53Speaker 3: But also sometimes we love him so much.
- 36:55Speaker 1: Sometimes Molly's like I want a horse, and I'm like,
- 36:57Speaker 1: where's your money?
- 36:58Speaker 3: We can't afford that. She's like, buy it. We can't
- 37:01Speaker 3: afford another horse.
- 37:04Speaker 1: The stone we've been buying great well after.
- 37:06Speaker 3: We set off all this stone we got from Egypt.
- 37:08Speaker 1: A couple of questions. My guy here's a question for you. Okay,
- 37:12Speaker 1: this one was It was on social media, causing quite
- 37:15Speaker 1: the stir. Quite the stir on social media. Ashwicks I
- 37:19Speaker 1: love that. The question is, if you're on a flight,
- 37:23Speaker 1: let's say it's domestic, could be international. As a parent,
- 37:27Speaker 1: is it okay to change your baby's nappy on the
- 37:31Speaker 1: tray table in front of you? The tray table, the table.
- 37:35Speaker 3: People eat from that. Fuck? No, hell, no, no way, no,
- 37:40Speaker 3: absolutely not.
- 37:41Speaker 1: What about?
- 37:42Speaker 3: What about?
- 37:44Speaker 1: Okay, just imagine this. It's a domestic flight, so there's
- 37:47Speaker 1: only one toilet at the back of the plane. You're
- 37:50Speaker 1: sitting towards the front. There's just been a bit of
- 37:52Speaker 1: drink service. It's a three hour flight, so people all
- 37:54Speaker 1: had a little nibble, they've got like a little drink.
- 37:57Speaker 1: They all need a shit and piss. So there's a
- 37:59Speaker 1: queue to get to the toilet. And your child's just
- 38:01Speaker 1: got a wee nappy. No shit, change it on the seat.
- 38:05Speaker 1: Don't change it on there. Well you can't because there's
- 38:07Speaker 1: someone next to you.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Will you stand up off your seat, you put your
- 38:10Speaker 3: kid onto your seat, you change them and then you
- 38:13Speaker 3: put them back on your lap. There's not that much
- 38:15Speaker 3: room in the seat, though.
- 38:17Speaker 1: I think, surely, surely, well, they're getting to wipe down
- 38:20Speaker 1: the trade table is getting to wipe down between each flight,
- 38:22Speaker 1: a little change to support the weight of a child.
- 38:26Speaker 3: If it's a newborn. There's a lot of variables here.
- 38:29Speaker 1: I don't mind it.
- 38:30Speaker 2: I'm saying no. I'm saying absolutely not. And if you do,
- 38:33Speaker 2: I'm pushing your baby off.
- 38:36Speaker 1: No, no, get off air down the aisle.
- 38:42Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I think the answer is no.
- 38:44Speaker 1: I'm not offended by that. I'm not offended by that.
- 38:47Speaker 1: In fact, you did it. No, I didn't do it.
- 38:50Speaker 1: I didn't do it.
- 38:50Speaker 3: If it's a boy, and then he just starts pissing again,
- 38:52Speaker 3: and it's pisses everywhere. I think it's just too.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Many things can go wrong on hygienic okay, done, hygienie okay, okay.
- 38:59Speaker 1: I think I think think as a parent, just have
- 39:02Speaker 1: free reign to do whatever you want.
- 39:04Speaker 2: I don't think, no, I don't. It has to be
- 39:05Speaker 2: some sort of order in some cases like this one.
- 39:10Speaker 2: That's just I'm not standing for it.
- 39:11Speaker 3: I won't have it.
- 39:12Speaker 1: What's your question?
- 39:13Speaker 2: You know what you do? You call the attendant and
- 39:15Speaker 2: make a big deal, and then you go I've got
- 39:17Speaker 2: to go to the bathroom first, and then you can
- 39:19Speaker 2: do a pisce yourself.
- 39:20Speaker 1: I would rather do it at the trade table rather
- 39:24Speaker 1: than get like usher to the front of the cue
- 39:26Speaker 1: of the toilet.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Nah.
- 39:29Speaker 3: Yeah, nah, you're wrong.
- 39:30Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, that's a great disagree your question. My question,
- 39:34Speaker 2: what's a tip for a new girl? Dad? They don't
- 39:37Speaker 2: tell you this guy has four boys and one girl
- 39:41Speaker 2: on the way, five kids.
- 39:44Speaker 3: Wow, pull it out, bro, pull it out.
- 39:49Speaker 1: What is wrong with you? Firstly having fun? You love sex,
- 39:53Speaker 1: loves practicing, but also thanks for your question. Okay, one
- 39:59Speaker 1: thing I mean, I think kids are more the same, right,
- 40:02Speaker 1: you know. I look at Marley and Lola, They're very different.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Marley loves dresses princesses, Lola loves a soccer ball and
- 40:09Speaker 1: like hating me.
- 40:11Speaker 2: They're very different. So I think they have a similar interest.
- 40:17Speaker 2: That's the only thing they have in common. But most
- 40:19Speaker 2: most brothers and sisters.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Is that necessary?
- 40:21Speaker 3: Yeah? Necessary?
- 40:23Speaker 1: I think if you've got four kids, I am sure
- 40:26Speaker 1: that he's got it absolutely dialed.
- 40:28Speaker 3: I hope you think the thing.
- 40:30Speaker 2: Is with having four, there's always, like even we're just
- 40:32Speaker 2: having two, there's always one that's cranky with you.
- 40:35Speaker 3: You're always stouting.
- 40:36Speaker 1: With always five of them. Nightmare. But I think I
- 40:41Speaker 1: think the hardest part with my girls and something that
- 40:46Speaker 1: I wish I was a lot better at. It's just
- 40:48Speaker 1: doing their hair.
- 40:50Speaker 3: You're pretty good, though, am I? Well? I can't just
- 40:53Speaker 3: put this way.
- 40:54Speaker 2: I cannot do Macie's hair at all, like ponytail. She
- 40:58Speaker 2: won't sit still for me.
- 40:59Speaker 3: I can't do it. It just gets a mess. I
- 41:01Speaker 3: get frustrated. Can you brush it? I'm going to shave
- 41:03Speaker 3: her head?
- 41:04Speaker 1: Can you brush your hair? Can you brush?
- 41:07Speaker 2: Why not?
- 41:08Speaker 1: She want to let me, she want to do it,
- 41:10Speaker 1: She's just you're too rough. Need to be more gentle.
- 41:15Speaker 3: Okay, maybe she gets some leftons, so you reckon that.
- 41:18Speaker 2: The thing they don't tell you the most is how
- 41:20Speaker 2: hard to do the hair, especially as it gets longer.
- 41:23Speaker 1: It gets longer, And also so often the kids are
- 41:26Speaker 1: like can I have a braid? And I'm like, what
- 41:28Speaker 1: does this look like?
- 41:29Speaker 3: Just cut?
- 41:31Speaker 1: How long are we got? I think there needs to
- 41:34Speaker 1: be there needs to be more lessons in school for
- 41:40Speaker 1: young men to learn how to do hair. Yeah.
- 41:44Speaker 3: In the uproar from the boomers, we we gay like, yeah,
- 41:50Speaker 3: when Macey had hair like this.
- 41:54Speaker 1: But Bob, sorry, sorry, Bob a bob cut I apologize.
- 41:57Speaker 3: It was so easy to go bang. She love to
- 41:59Speaker 3: talk now. I'm like, there's two anyway.
- 42:03Speaker 1: But good luck, good luck to you. I'm sure you'll
- 42:05Speaker 1: be fine. If you've got your four kids, you must
- 42:07Speaker 1: have a dial. Either that or you work a lot
- 42:10Speaker 1: of hours.
- 42:14Speaker 3: Check. Thanks for Chris.
