• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is Kiss Breakfast, a brand new podcast out called Charmed.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: You can get it on iHeartRadio.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Sam Todd is the host and she is joining us
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: right now. Hello.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Good morning.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Hey, Sam.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Hi, I'm so excited to be making my official radio
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: debut with you.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: So for anyone who hasn't come across you online before,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: can you tell us a little bit about yourself and
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: how did you get into content creation?
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Of course. So my name is Sam Todd and I'm
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram and I'm everywhere. And now
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: also on all of the podcast platforms, but I'm most
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: known for my videos shopping around the world, which is
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: a very difficult, very hard job.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Someone's got to do it, right? Yes.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: So you're a shopaholic? Well, some might say that. But
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: I travel around collecting country exclusive items, namely Pandora charms.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: They have all of these different ones you can only
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: get in certain countries. Aha. Yes. And I've gone to
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: over 20 countries now and collected over 20 country exclusive
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: Pandora charms. Yes.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: My daughter actually has a little Pandora bracelet that my
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: mum bought her when she was a baby, well, like
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a little kid. And every time it's her birthday or Christmas,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: she buys her like a new Pandora charm.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, cute. Start them young. I love to hear it.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: And when my husband and I were over in Italy,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: we actually got her a little charm and it's like
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: a little croissant and it hangs off her. Yeah, it's
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: really cute. And you've got 20.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: What's your favourite one, Sam? Oh, my favorite one. I
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: just recently went to Japan and they released new country
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: exclusive ones. This is the thing. You keep having to
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: get more because there was a range of country exclusive
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: ones in, say, 2024, but now they're new in 2026.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: So you have to keep adding them. And the one
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: that I got in Japan is an Omomori, which is
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: a lucky amulet. So I love that it's a good
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: luck charm and a Pandora charm in one.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So you must do a lot of traveling as well.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Do you travel on your own or with your family
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: or a partner?
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: I travel with my partner and my girlfriends. I like
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: to mix it up because, you know what, at the
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: end of the day, nothing can beat a girl's trip.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: There is nothing better than a girl's trip.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: How good is going away with the girls?
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Yes. But in terms of long-term travel, it's got to
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: be with your partner because you can't get sick of them.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: So I balance the two.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Okay. And for people who've never listened to Charmed, your
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: new podcast, can you tell us what it's about?
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Of course. So what I love about our show Charmed
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: is that it's not the stories that you always hear
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: from the guests because we have a wide array of
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: guests who come on and instead of talking about maybe
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: the reality TV show run they just had or the
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: book they had, I mean, we do touch on that.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: What we're really looking to uncover is stories they don't
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: talk about that often or at all about the items
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: that they collect and treasure and things that they... have
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: never shared publicly that they collect. And it's really exciting
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: getting to hear these stories we haven't heard before. Right.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So, like, it could be, like, I know my nerdy
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: sister used to have a stamp collection yawn.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: No yawning on collections in this house.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: But you could also– it's like my husband. My husband
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: used to– he backpacked for, like, nine months.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: And in our garage we have this– well, not a container,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: it's like a box, and it's of all the lighters
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and matchboxes that he collected from all the different places, hostels,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: you know, countries that he visited. And I keep saying
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to him, these need to go out in the council clean-up,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and he just won't throw them out.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: No, let's get him on time. Exactly the kind of
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: guest we're looking for.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: We'll get Ryan on your podcast. I mean, that's the thing, right?
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: You can tell what a person's like based on what
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: they collect, yeah?
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: And there's always an interesting story to it. Yes, and
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: it's the things that mean nothing to anyone else, but
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: they're so important to them. We just had Chloe Hayden
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: on last week and she brought a chunk of cement,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: like floor, from the shipyard where the Titanic was because
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: she loves the Titanic and she stole that from the
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: shipyard in Belfast.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: See, okay, well, would you consider yourself a bit of
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: a hoarder? Because I say to my husband all the time,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: he loves holding on to old things, memorabilia from his
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: dad playing football. He's still got his, like, kindergarten photos. Wow. Yeah,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: he holds on to everything. And I'm like, those be
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: some hoarding tendencies, right?
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I prefer the term collector or archivist. Archivist. It's an
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: archive of my life. But, yes, I keep everything. Okay,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I think we might need to get you on that
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: hoarder show.
• 4:16
