  Speaker 3: I can hear them having conversations, Nana and the kids,
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: and it's beautiful.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: It's nice.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: You know, you want them to have that connection. You
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: want your grandparents to have a big role.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: It's Nana an early riser. Not really, she hates it.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: What's she doing up then? I don't know.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Just some some mornings I think the kids will just
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: go in there and be like, get up, get out here,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: drag her.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Out of bed.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: And one morning, for example, Nana was talking to the
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: kids about death.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: You know, talking.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Big topics, be live conversations. That happened in the morning
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: with Nana and the kids. But she was saying, you know,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: we're far. Laura's stepdadd has passed away. So sometimes the
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: kids will be like, where's fine? You say, oh, you
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: know bar has gone to Heaven is the star now?
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: And and and then another morning. I now know that
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Mum was telling the kids about where babies come from.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: I know this one. There's not a multi purpose hole.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Well is it is?
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Nane is given too much information, I think for a
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: three year old to comprehend. Okay, So in the conversation,
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: She's explained to Lola that that you were born as
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: a female with all of your eggs inside you.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Is that not? Is that all right? That's true, that's true.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: That's true. That's true. So Lola's I thought I knew
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: this one, but I don't.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Lay you're looking your face right now.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Is I'm learning? I'll explain to you.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: Lola's taken that. I mean, like, I've got my eggs
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: inside of me. She's like, ah, I'm pregnant. Ah. So
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Laula's like whenever she meets anyone new, she's like, exciting news.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I'm oh my god, they're inside of me.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: And so Nana's being away, and I'm like, I don't
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: know if I should tell Nana, like, hey, just you know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: don't have to go into too much detail about, you know,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: certain parts of life.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can do the human anatomy. You see here
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: he gets out the chart. Buddy, ell Nana, just keep
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: it keep it simple. Where is Nana?
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: Nana's gone, Okay, good, we've kicked her out, but she
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: has gone back to Brisbane and she is house sitting,
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: which she always gets herself in these nightmare situations. Someone
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: one of her friends that can you look after my
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: two dogs? I'm going away for a week. Nana said absolutely,
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: I'd love to. These two dogs are the biggest nightmare.
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: Two dogs. They're like they're like German shorthaired pointers. They're
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: like hunting dogs, hunting dog really active. But they're also
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: like that they're not puppies, that kind of teenage adolescent
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: and they're very naughty, very spoilt, and they only sleep
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: in the bed. So Mom's tried to jump into the
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: spare room and the dogs will bark all night until
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Mom hops into bed with them. You know, she's got
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: a bad foot, and so Mom has that little vibrating
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: tool and when she turns it into the middle of
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: the night. The dogs are like, oh my god, So
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Mama's house sitting and getting like three hours of sleep
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: at night.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: And she's literally, your mom shouldn't take a vibrator on
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: holidays with her.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: I'm like, just come home. I'll be working non stop.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: I've now realized how much mom does around the house.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: Oh really, yah, I having to cook and clean again.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: You yelled at her the other day when she was
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: untaking the dishes. She was like that, I didn't yell
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: at her. Ash, she didn't. You're making me had to
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: be a bad guy. Well you teasing your knieces and nephews.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: You're yelling at your mom.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Oscar fell out of bed, Yeah, Hager, was that
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Seguey just talking about beds.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Oscar fell out of one. But he's got a he's
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: got a bed rail. And I know what you're thinking,
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: how did you fall out of bed?
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: You may ask. I'm going to drew a slight thud
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: over the sicada noises?
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: How did you hear that?
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: I you know what I did.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: The cicadas were taking the breath like, yeah, mid mate,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: and I was just like and I just thought, like,
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: he's dropped Sicada coming to the front door.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Also, Aicarda flew into our bedroom the same night.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: I thought it was his water bottle because it's a
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: plastic water bottle always sits on the.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Big it's his water bottle. It's like a keg. It's
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: like moon and that full of water.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but the thud of a water bottle, that's very small.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: But my floors are not like your floors with they're
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: nice and hardwood. Mine are Cyprus pine with no insulation whatsoever.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Was it like a bit tinny?
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: It's just like every noise you can hear, and it's
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: over exaggerate, exascerbated, that's the wrong word. Sure, I'll take
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: it anyway. I've heard the thud, but I thought it
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: was his water bowl, so I just thought nothing of it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: And then I hear little Mazie going what.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Happened to Oscar? Was he crying?
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: He was, but he was crying into his pillow, And
• 19:12

  Speaker 2: he was like it hurts here, hurts here, hurts here.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, no, no, no no, You've got

  Speaker 1: a gate on the side of your bed, and like

  Speaker 1: thing they've got in the middle to do.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know what he was doing. He was doing
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: the wrong thing.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: But I was like, okay, I said, you clearly have

• 20:40
  Speaker 1: over and make sure he's got no bumps or bruises,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: not that I cared, and he was fine, and then
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay on this occasion, and then I
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: left and I carried on my night when I was
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: doing and then I was like, I'll go for a shower,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: and I walked past the room just to check on them,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: and they were both asleep, right, And I went to
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: check and he was he was asleep, but he was
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: leaning out of the same crack in the bed that
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: he'd fallen out of, so he's.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Obviously gone back for a second, but he was going
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: so tired and falling.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: He must have been trying to be so quiet that
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: he's like.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: So he's half hanging out of the bed.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: It was too dark to get like a photo, and
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: I was like, and I also felt like he's going
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: to hit his head because he was face for there's
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: a table in the middle of their two beds, so
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: he's obviously gone.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I'm picturing like you're that Mission Impossible scene where he's
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: like I was like, bless, But then I said to
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: him the next day, I was, oh, yeah, just absolutely
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: fogged him.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: I was like, the next day.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: I was getting him ready for bed last night and
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: I was like, you can't fall out of your bed.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: They're going to fall out of your bed again, like
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: and he was like, I don't know. I was asleep,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: still sticking with the story. I was like, do you

• 22:16
  Speaker 4: A lot on me, And I like, just when you

• 22:24
  Speaker 4: I caught him out of his bed near Macy's bed,
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: like doing something sneaky and you jump back and.
• 22:29

• 22:40
  Speaker 3: top bunk bed. Lolas is like almost like sits on

  Speaker 3: the floor. So sometimes I'll go in and she's just
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: like literally like laying next to the wardrobe. She's just
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: like rolled out of bed. And like worked away across
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: the floor.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: But I just leave her there.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: She's got the rugs, the carpet on the floor that yeah, yeah,
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: but if I touch her, she's gonna wake up. There's
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: nothing worse moving your kid back into their bed and
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: they wake up and you're like, he's like a dead weight.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: He's like twice as heavy when he's asleep. Because when

  Speaker 2: I'll just trying to move, and he just hangs me.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: One of those you know, those old people, and they're
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: in like they can't move anymore, and they get him
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: out of the bed.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: They have like the winds. That's like a big ammic
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: yeah by one of them.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: For Oscar, I have said to him now, like if
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I wake up to in my bed one more time,
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: you're fucking banned.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: And he was like ben from what I was like, idiot.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: You know you know, do you know who is loving
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: a daytime nap at the moment?
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: Not me?
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: I can't daytime nap.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Yp bro. I have seen you fall asleep before.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: At nighttime, no daytime on a plane yeah, watching me.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I've seen you fall asleep at the airport Duranta. It
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: was seven days after seven days in Vegas.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: That's not true.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: I didn't fall sept the airport, but I'll sleep on
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: the plane anyway. Thursdays, you know, my Thursdays are a
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: very busy day. We have swimming in the morning, gymnastics
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: in the afternoon. Little old Lola, she's getting pretty exhausted.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Back on the nap train. She's pregnant.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she just hasn't really quite re collaborated, not re calibrate.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: She don't recalibrated post daytime savings, so she's still up
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: at like five thirty six o'clock in the morning. Daylight savings,
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: you mean, what did I say, daytime savings? Daytime savings,
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: same thing.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: I'm saving this day up.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: So she's waken up super early. And on Thursdays, poor
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: little thing. It's just become too much and so we'll
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: go home, we have some quiet time. I'm trying not
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: to do too many activities for her because gymnastics is
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: out of the door at three o'clock.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: And you've paid for that shit, so you better do it.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: It's expensive. It's expensive. Gymnastics terrible decision from me.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Kids don't really like it. Let my kids do it anything.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: It's yeah, assuming is like that's like the benchmark of
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: as far as you should go.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: I think so one activity days unless they like chomping
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: for it. But yeah, treatmill.
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: But as we get Lawder in the car, I can
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: kind of see already she's it's like someone's kind of
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: hit it with a tranquilizer. She's just like really heavy eyelids.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: On the way to gymnastics, and lately, like last week,
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: we're five minutes in and she's out. She's out cola.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of soft mats at gym too. Yeah,
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: be careful. The issue is when I drop her gymnastics,
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: I wait in the like it's a parent waiting room.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: So you drop your kids off, they go on to
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: the gym floor. The door shuts and then all the
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: parents get forty minutes of reprieve from the kids.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Oh together, we had to sit down on your phone.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: I sent a females.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Oh it's great because you got to like lock you in.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: There's like you must talk.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: No, no one, no one talks. Can you sit in
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: the car. No, the car is too far away because
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: you have to you have to walk, like to night.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: As long as I could be alone, I will be walking.
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: So all the parents just straight on their phones. Does
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: anyone try and awkwardly talk to you.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: No.
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: There was an old lady once and I was like,
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: shut up, it's my fucking worst night. May being trapped
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: in a room just that old guy. Yeah, but like
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: trapped in a room like for forty minutes, it's lovely
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: because kids are gone, yeah, and everyone's.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: I were like complete, I would like to be alone.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: So the issue is, and when Lola is then asleep
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: in the car, I'm like I got to try and
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: wake her up, and she hates being waken up. And
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: then you don't wake up and be like by the way,
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: you're doing gymnastics, your flips and so, because then she's
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: not gonna want to do it, so she's gonna want
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: to hang with me. Then I can't get my forty
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: minutes of alone time. So I was like, Okay, she's
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: really asleep. She was like dead weight, like oscar. So
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: I'm like, fine, I'm not going to wake her up,
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: so get her out of the car. We walked down
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: to gymnastics and Marley's there going as well. They're still asleep,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: and I'm like, shut up, she's over your yeah, over
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: my shoulder.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: That's good.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: So we go down into gymnastics, go down into the
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: gymnastics floor.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: I just put her down, like I said, a lot
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: of soft surfaces, and I started walking back. I'm like, well,
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: I wake up, looks around, shut the door.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Se did she just confused, very confused, falling asleep in
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: the car and then waking hover and you're.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Like and like, she's only three. This Russian coach is like,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: get on the high bar, timmy toes, timmy toes. I
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: could hear a whimper, but I was headphones in. Oh man.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: I can just imagine the confused look on her face,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: the very strict there as well. It's literally like this
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: is the one you had to lie about her age
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: to get her in.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, how did you did she enjoy?
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: No, there's like the lungs four.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: It's forty minutes, so there's a lot, there's a little
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: there's a little window, and I kind of like would
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: like peep up a few times, just looking around. The
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: fuck I'd have back down. And then finally when the
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: class finished they came back in.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: She was like.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: You, And I was like, what, I'm under you?
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: You motherfucker? You got me.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Ash, I have a parenting hack for you. I think
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: older side, but I think, actually no, it's more of
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: a parenting hack for me.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, well older side, okay.
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: So remind me of when April was giving birth to Macy.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: What did you do with Oscar?
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Who had who? Because it was a plan section, yep,
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: we had.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Oscar was at kindy that day and then he had
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: a sleepover at Mimi's house, which is April's mum. Okay,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: so there's a better idea. So a better solution.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Put him up for adoption.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: Your word's not mine. Have a go of this mum
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: in the delivery room? Oh no, why is there kids
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: in the delivery room? So what I'm looking at it
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: looks like you can't be exactly sure because she may
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: have more kids in the room that we cannot see
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: in the frame. But she's got two kids. The youngest
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: is probably what four. Don't waste your money on a babysitter.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Bring your kids in the delivery suite, let him hang around.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: I would say, fuck, I'm not having my kids. If
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: I was to have another kid, very hypothetical as I can't. Okay, okay, okay,
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: if you have a third kid, are you gonna.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Honestly going to have Lola? Don't put this on Lola.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Well, she's a bit of a she's a bit of
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: a terror sometimes, but she's like like compared to Marley,
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: do you want Lola running around?
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: The kid is yeah, you're gonna bust out of that hole.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: That'd be great. That's very rare, making care memories, Bro's
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: it's all all memory memories for the family. Okay, so
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: call memory the trauma.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: If he looks down there and what if Lola will
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: my looks down They're like that's a good point, That's.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: What I mean.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: He's like on the side like yeah, but like if
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: you're like, don't look down there, the kids are gonna
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: want to be like I'm going to what are you
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: hiding me from?
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Oh my god.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: We shouldn't rustle that hair wrap our kids in cotton wool.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: You know, I think, go off and have the baby
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: and come back. You need, bro, you do need to
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: do that, No need, no need. If it's good for her,
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: it's good for us. I know that you wouldn't you
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: would be like fuck that I'm going to determine that
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: not a hack. Well, hand it over to the good
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: people who listen to this podcast.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Give us their opinion. Absolutely, we'll post that video on
• 30:53

• 30:57
  Speaker 2: What do they want now?
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: Okay, this one is from from Jen. What is the
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: ultimate test to find out if a babysitter is good
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: or not?
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: I suppose you'd let them look after your kids? The
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: one there he is moving on.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Look, I only had used family for baby, says. We
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: haven't gone outside, we haven't branched out. Why we've got papa,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: papa's retired.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: You've never once, not once, use any external, non family babysitter.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: No, never, what so I can't really in your five
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: years of being a father. Yeah, I don't really trust
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: them either, say my family. That is that's crazy.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, like, great that you've got someone down the
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: road you can rely on. Like, let's just do it.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Let's just do it once. Let's see what it's like.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Why what? I don't need to because it's fucking wild, bro.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: We just have never had that. We've just never thrill.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Of a random person coming into your house, going home
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: and making sure that You're only is still alive. Honestly,
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: that doesn't bother me at all. We just haven't gone
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: to the point where we've needed it. Wow, it's sad
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: you're missing out on this so much fun of what
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: just guessing? Yeah, it's like job interviews.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: The only time would be okay, okay, the only time
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: we'd be in Bali.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: When we had there you go, how was that for you? Fine?
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: Did you have any tests?
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: No, well we took your recommendation, but like, no, they
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: love they love a Dell.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: Shout out to a del if you listening.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't have a I don't have a test
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: where we're trying to find someone to help out at
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: the moment.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: But like this is different like help out just like
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: like babysit wing.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: You're not there, or like nanny maybe a bit of both,
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: okay of both.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: The only thing that one babysitter did, which to me
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: was like, hey, that's a good move.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: I like that. It's a nice touch.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: This is the one that ran over someone on the
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: street or nearly did Oh you did hit That's another story.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: I'll save that one for a other time.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: The only thing that one babysitter did, which I was like,
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: I really really like that, and if there's any babysities listening.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: She brought some pens and some coloring in paper, just.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Straight up and we're like, hey, girls, here you go. Yeah. Yeah,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: I think she bribed them. Did she ask what they're
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: into before she just assumed?
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: I think it's just assumed that all kids enjoy some
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: level of coloring. Yeah, she may have asked about them
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: in the interview, don't know, but she brought that and
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: I was like, that's I like that.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Initiative straight up.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I think of a vibe when we have had
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: people come in where she was like how many kids too? Ugh?
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: And I was like, we will not be using you.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: Can I fill my only fans in here as well?
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: At the same time, definitely not get out out. If
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: you've got any advice, let matt know. I don't use
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: external babysitters.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: My family that loves me anyway, And moving on, this
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: one's from Quinn Matthew park etiquettes Your kids on the swing.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: There's a lineup up.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: How long do you push your kid before you give
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: it to the next Childoom?
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Do you think I'm based off child's enjoyment? Oh? Really?
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: That's a deep.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: It's a tough question. There's a little park down the
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: road from us here, and it's a small park. In
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: the afternoons, it's quite busy, especially on the weekends. There's
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: only two swings. Swings a hot property. Yeah, every kid wants.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: To be on the swing.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: You have little moments where, you know, like a pocket
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: of time where no one's in the swing, where straight
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: in there, get Lalla in their strap end, give her
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: a push very quickly.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: There's a queue.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, okay, I reckon twenty pushes is a
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: twenty pushes?
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think there should be a time limit.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: I think like you would, Jake, you, a reasonable guy
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: would be like, look, someone's on a swing. Now let's
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: play with something else, and when the swing's free, we
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: can go and do it because there's other things to
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: play with, right, I know that's hot property. Macy's the
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: She's like, I'm like, maybe there's like two hundred people
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: waiting to get on this swing.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: She's like, nah, sharpened push. She's just like high fuck.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: And it's like I don't I don't want the meltdown.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: But I'm also like I don't want to be rude,
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: but I think like, don't line up with your kid,
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: play with something else, maybe.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: You know, because then you lose your spot. Then you
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: lose your spot.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: I think a good gauge for like how much longer
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: you should be allowed to plan the swing is how
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: restless the kid who's waiting is getting.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: But what about you? What are your kids really enjoying? It?
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: Does their restlessness outweigh they're enjoying.
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: I think it does. I think it does a very
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: good point National Glad you brought that one up. I
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: think if per cheer from the child, her like vocal
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: moment of excitement entitles you to like another five swings, okay,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: And then what if there's a small sobbing from the
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: child waiting?
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: How many sob?
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: How many minutes per sol sob deducts three swings? Right, yes,
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: so yeah started with twenty swings, so big stuff. How
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: many swings is left for Macy?
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: I know we're all just sitting around and go.
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: Divide that by the number of kids in the park,
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: multiplied by the hour of the day. That is how
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: many swings is left.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: But I think like you should with your child. You
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: should set your child's expectation that not not every time
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: are they going to get what they want.
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: I feel like once you do a countdown kids, it's
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: like programmed into their head.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: No, Ma's like count back up. If I'm like, we're.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: Doing ten more, I kind of log you with accounting.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, three two.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: I think that there's a little bit on the parent,
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: the waiting parent to be like, hey, I know.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: You're saying, don't want to get lose out of the line.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: I guess at the expectation of your kid and go
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: you can't always have what you want.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: And don't sweat The parent like, if you've just.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Don't sweat me, you just all stay all fucking day.
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: If you've just gotten on the swing, a bit of
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: breathing space, the etiquette of the swing, I won't be
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: able to live my arm anymore, but I will fucking
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: be I'll be pushing that kid one way or another for.
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: The rest of the day.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: But I think like, yeah, there's plenty of other things
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: to play with at the park. If you sweat me,
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: I'm going to just stay. But I think also, like
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I said, the parent of the kid waiting should be like, hey, we're.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Waiting, but do you want to play with something else?
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: And when it's free. We can come back. Love that.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: I love that, love park etiquette, great topics, great questions.
• 37:21
