  Speaker 2: do you, punk? What is the motto? Oh, so it's
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: don't let the old man in.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, right.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: And it's his famous line.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Well, there are his other famous lines, but his best
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: line now is don't let the old man in.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: And he got it.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: He actually, his mate Toby Keith, do you guys know
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: him from Country Music Singer?
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, I've heard of him. Yeah, yeah. He even wrote
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: a song about Clinton's philosophy.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Actually, have you got a little bit? Let's play a
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: little bit for our listeners. This is a little bit
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: of the, it was in the late 80s anyway.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Get up and go outside. Don't let the old man in.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: And it is beautiful.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: It's a real banger, isn't it, that one? It's an
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: up and about.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'll explain it. So the answer is don't let
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: the old man in. So it's simple. It's bloody brilliant.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I'm not that old, but your philosophy is that every
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: day you don't let the old man get through the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: front door.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, so.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: You stay fit. You keep active. You look after yourself.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: So it's not letting your state of mind change.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: It's keeping a young state of mind. Yeah, it's not
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: sitting on the couch watching TV or it's not staying
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: in bed. It's not going to the gym. And I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: have fallen into the trap because it's been busy, you know, finals, dockers,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: all that, that magnificent beast telethon.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Footy, yeah, so footy finals, the usual work stuff, you know,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: my daughter and my son and stuff, you know, exams.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: And so I stopped practicing what I preach, which is
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: don't let the old man in. And so the gym
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: went out the window.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, and he snuck in. Yeah, yeah.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Health checks.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Health checks is a big one too. And I'm on
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the scales. I'm 103 kilos. I'm going, oh, my God.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I've let the old man in. He's getting on top
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: of me. And he does get on top of you.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: You get a sore hip or your knee or your
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: creak and stuff. You're not doing weight-bearing exercise. You've gone
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: back to Pilates, right?
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I've started. And you're nowhere near an old woman. No,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: I've started Pilates. I have my third class today. Let's
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: not call it too early. Yes. Is that when it
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: gets a bit easier? I hope so. You've still got
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: the jelly legs? You've still got those jelly legs? They're
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: still a bit sore, yeah. I love that.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: So to all the guys out there, Um, that's how
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: he sneaks in. He doesn't kick the door down the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: old man. He just sneaks in and he, you skip
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: a workout.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: You're not looking. Yeah. You postpone a doctor's appointment. You
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: make one more.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Excuse that you're too busy or you put yourselves, you
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: put yourself last. I recommend a classic at doing that
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: in families.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Putting themselves last.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But really you.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Should maintain your health because. prioritize it because if your
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: cup is empty, how are you going to help anyone else?
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: I reckon, I mean, cause I don't have kids, so I'm,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I'm not a mother, but I would dare say mothers
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: are probably the, the ones that put themselves absolutely last
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: in defense of my friends that are mothers. I see
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: how they, you know, they definitely are last on the list.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Parents maybe. And so don't let the old woman in
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: as well.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So make sure you go to the doctor. Make a
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: few changes. Get back to walking the dog.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: So you're coming to Pilates with me today?
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking about it. I'm drinking more water. Let's fall
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: off the machine together. What about cutting back on beer? Stretching.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Stretching as well as Pilates.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Stretching is awesome.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: And I tell you, you have to do weight-bearing exercise.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: You do. I used to think you didn't have to.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: I thought it was bull twang.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: No.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Good for your bones. You do.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: And book that overdue GP appointment.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Just don't let the old man in.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: He's not even that old. I'm not even that old,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: but I'm starting again. All right.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Don't let him grab the remote and sit next to you.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: That sort of thing. Wise words from Barra.
