- 0:11Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Morning.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Mikey, Amy here for Chemist's Warehouse. You had your eyelash
- 0:16Speaker 2: or brows done or something? You look different.
- 0:19Speaker 1: I still have my lashes on from the shoot that
- 0:21Speaker 1: I had yesterday.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Are they fake? Yeah.
- 0:25Speaker 4: So we did the shoot yesterday for the new show
- 0:28Speaker 4: coming up and she had put on a, I don't know,
- 0:30Speaker 4: individual lashes.
- 0:32Speaker 1: And I got home last night and I was so tired.
- 0:34Speaker 4: I got home into like three melting down children and
- 0:38Speaker 4: I put them.
- 0:38Speaker 1: To bed and I scrubbed my face, had a shower.
- 0:40Speaker 4: And then I was trying to pull these lashes off
- 0:43Speaker 4: and And it felt like it was trying to remove
- 0:45Speaker 4: my lid at the same time.
- 0:47Speaker 2: So they're like glued in.
- 0:48Speaker 1: They're glued in.
- 0:49Speaker 2: A lot of girls get around with that fake.
- 0:51Speaker 1: A lot of girls do. And I will say this.
- 0:53Speaker 1: I was like, listen, I'm going to leave them on
- 0:55Speaker 1: for a night.
- 0:56Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 0:56Speaker 1: And I'll wake up with them. It shaved off like
- 0:59Speaker 1: five minutes in the morning.
- 1:00Speaker 4: Like I just got up. washed my face, put on
- 1:02Speaker 4: a tinted moisturizer, and off I went. Didn't have to
- 1:04Speaker 4: do my lashes. Didn't have to do, yeah.
- 1:07Speaker 2: What's the deal with them? Because I see some girls, like,
- 1:10Speaker 2: yours look real.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, they don't.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Well, they're real-ish. I've seen some, and I'm like, they, like.
- 1:16Speaker 1: They're so thick and black.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Are they meant to be?
- 1:18Speaker 4: Well, some girls like that really industrial look. Like, some
- 1:22Speaker 4: girls I know, they could take flight.
- 1:24Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:24Speaker 4: Like they're so long and so thick and they could
- 1:27Speaker 4: just flap away.
- 1:29Speaker 2: But they're not trying to pretend they're real, yeah? Because
- 1:31Speaker 2: they don't look real.
- 1:32Speaker 1: No, they're not trying to pretend. They just like that look.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Yeah, right.
- 1:35Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Anyway, that's... It suits you.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Does it?
- 1:38Speaker 2: You should have them permanently.
- 1:40Speaker 1: I know, but then I think it ruins your actual
- 1:42Speaker 1: natural lashes.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Who cares?
- 1:44Speaker 1: Me. But maybe.
- 1:48Speaker 4: For the foreseeable future that I'm doing breakfast, maybe I
- 1:51Speaker 4: need to. Maybe I need to invest in fake lashes
- 1:53Speaker 4: so I don't have to worry about it in the morning.
- 1:55Speaker 2: You also can't get them out, so you might just
- 1:57Speaker 2: be stuck with them. This is true. Do you miss me? Oh, yeah, man.
- 2:01Speaker 2: Two days without you.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I bet. Thank you, Nat, for filling in. You're an
- 2:05Speaker 1: absolute legend.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Oh, she loved it.
- 2:06Speaker 1: You're okay.
- 2:07Speaker 2: She loves being in here with me, don't you, darling?
- 2:09Speaker 1: You're extra rude this morning. Something's off with you.
- 2:11Speaker 9: I think it's because you were flustered. You lost your
- 2:13Speaker 9: pass and you've just been real weird.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I'm glad I'm out here today.
- 2:17Speaker 5: Sorry, Amy.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Well, you had fun for the other two days, didn't you?
- 2:20Speaker 1: Yeah, it was fine. He left his pass in his car.
- 2:23Speaker 2: Big problem.
- 2:24Speaker 4: Yeah, and so because it's pushed you back by like five,
- 2:27Speaker 4: ten minutes and you're thrown off your schedule.
- 2:30Speaker 1: You know what it is?
- 2:31Speaker 9: Mikey, I've noticed over the years, has OCD. So if
- 2:34Speaker 9: anything changes, his slight OCD or triggers his autism, he's
- 2:38Speaker 9: thrown for the whole day.
- 2:40Speaker 3: Yes.
- 2:40Speaker 2: My girlfriend actually thinks she says I've got tism. You're
- 2:45Speaker 2: on the spectrum.
- 2:45Speaker 3: No, 100% a mild form.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. It's got me this far. It's all good. But, yeah, no,
- 2:51Speaker 2: you are right. I need to breathe.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Just take four deep breaths.
- 2:56Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Because you've been barking at everyone.
- 3:00Speaker 2: Isn't everyone?
- 3:00Speaker 6: You have.
- 3:00Speaker 2: Okay, all right. Well, I apologize.
- 3:02Speaker 9: Apologize to Alec the Pom because you were very dismissive
- 3:05Speaker 9: with him before.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Sorry, the Pom. It was great content ideas you had, mate.
- 3:08Speaker 2: You're a good worker there.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Yes, it's okay, Mikey.
- 3:11Speaker 5: Thanks for the apology.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Oh, look how deflated he is.
- 3:13Speaker 3: Don't you feel like a piece of shit? He's so upset.
- 3:14Speaker 7: Piss off.
- 3:15Speaker 2: There are way worse people that speak to people worse
- 3:18Speaker 2: than me, so don't you.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Well, at least Nat called you out and gave it
- 3:21Speaker 1: back to you.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fine.
- 3:23Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 3:23Speaker 2: I just... If any little thing goes wrong... Yeah, you guys.
- 3:29Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I just can't... Can't handle it.
- 3:32Speaker 3: It's okay.
- 3:33Speaker 2: That's all right.
- 3:33Speaker 9: We have to accept all people, including those with Mikey's challenges.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Yeah, don't make fun of my tism. Hey, Sean.
- 3:40Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 3:41Speaker 2: You got a story running around about children needing coffee.
- 3:44Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.
- 3:45Speaker 2: Oh, God.
- 3:46Speaker 12: Australia is set to lead a world first study, and
- 3:49Speaker 12: they're looking at the best caffeine doses for premature babies.
- 3:52Speaker 3: So they think.
- 3:53Speaker 12: That caffeine helps vulnerable newborns to keep breathing. So they've
- 3:57Speaker 12: actually called it the baby Chino trial.
- 4:00Speaker 1: I was thinking like a little baby Piccolo.
- 4:03Speaker 4: So what's the theory behind it, that the caffeine gets
- 4:06Speaker 4: the heart pumping?
- 4:07Speaker 12: Yeah, basically, I believe that's the thing. I mean, I'd
- 4:09Speaker 12: have to chat to the researchers, but... Yeah, it's a,
- 4:13Speaker 12: I mean, Aussie researchers, they come up with some brilliant
- 4:15Speaker 12: ideas and like there's, you know, when it comes to
- 4:17Speaker 12: populations and whatnot, we don't have a lot of people
- 4:20Speaker 12: in Australia compared to a lot of these other leading nations.
- 4:23Speaker 2: We need more kids.
- 4:24Speaker 3: Some of our researchers are just amazing at what they
- 4:26Speaker 3: can come up with.
- 4:27Speaker 4: I want to know how they're feeding it to them,
- 4:29Speaker 4: like a little tube or are they having it.
- 4:30Speaker 2: In like a tiny piccolo cup? Well, don't you give
- 4:32Speaker 2: kids the, what is it, like a baby Chino?
- 4:34Speaker 1: You actually can, yeah.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Why though?
- 4:36Speaker 1: Well, it's basically just foam.
- 4:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 4:39Speaker 1: It's like the whipped foam from milk.
- 4:41Speaker 2: With chocolate sprinkles. Yeah, right. There's no coffee there.
- 4:44Speaker 7: No.
- 4:45Speaker 3: It's just to like shut them up at the cafe, right?
- 4:47Speaker 2: That's right.
- 4:47Speaker 3: Just give them something.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Mum wants to buy a latte and she needs to
- 4:51Speaker 1: get a baby chino.
- 4:52Speaker 13: Right.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Not in my day.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Oh, not in my day either.
- 4:54Speaker 2: Did your parents always drink cappuccinos? That's my parents' go-to. Yeah,
- 4:57Speaker 2: it is.
- 4:58Speaker 1: My parents never really drank coffee.
- 5:00Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 5:01Speaker 4: But on the odd occasion that they did get one,
- 5:02Speaker 4: it was always a cappuccino.
- 5:04Speaker 2: My dad said when he was in Italy, he got
- 5:05Speaker 2: shamed because you're not meant to have a cappuccino after
- 5:08Speaker 2: a certain time there. I think it's a morning drink.
- 5:11Speaker 8: Oh.
- 5:11Speaker 2: So he was ordering a cappuccino at night in Italy
- 5:13Speaker 2: and they were all laughing at him.
- 5:15Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 5:15Speaker 2: If any Italians know, 131065. No, that's so wrong.
- 5:18Speaker 8: What?
- 5:19Speaker 2: The Italians were wrong or they were punking him?
- 5:21Speaker 4: Well, they must have been punking him because we would
- 5:23Speaker 4: go out for dinner and we would have like a little,
- 5:25Speaker 4: a shot of.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Sorry, no need for the Italian.
- 5:28Speaker 2: I just Googled it because that's a thing.
- 5:30Speaker 9: And, yeah, Italians view cappuccinos as morning only, typically consumed
- 5:34Speaker 9: alongside a croissant.
- 5:36Speaker 5: A croissant.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's like your breakfast meal.
- 5:38Speaker 1: So they were laughing at it. So they'll still drink
- 5:41Speaker 1: coffee at night, but not a cappuccino.
- 5:44Speaker 7: Yes.
- 5:44Speaker 9: Because of the heavy milk and foam on a cappuccino.
- 5:47Speaker 9: So later on they'd be having, what are they called?
- 5:49Speaker 9: Like a shot.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Like a macchiato.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Macchiato.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Macchiato.
- 5:52Speaker 2: Whereas boomers love a restaurant and then ordering a cappuccino
- 5:56Speaker 2: right at the end with a dinner mint.
- 5:58Speaker 3: My parents are flat white people.
- 5:59Speaker 2: They love a flat white. What's the deal with that,
- 6:01Speaker 2: by the way? Every time I go out and have
- 6:03Speaker 2: a nice meal, I don't want to end it with
- 6:05Speaker 2: a coffee so I can stay awake all night.
- 6:07Speaker 1: No, but you shouldn't.
- 6:09Speaker 4: Sometimes if you just have a shot of coffee at
- 6:11Speaker 4: the end of the night, it sometimes just helps you
- 6:13Speaker 4: digest your meal.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Is that the idea?
- 6:15Speaker 1: I can have a full meal, a shot of coffee
- 6:17Speaker 1: and go straight to bed.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't work like that.
- 6:20Speaker 3: No, I'd be stuffed.
- 6:21Speaker 12: I'd be up all night if I had one shot
- 6:24Speaker 12: of coffee after like midday.
- 6:25Speaker 1: I think if you have coffee after a big meal,
- 6:30Speaker 1: it won't have the same effect on you. Like if
- 6:31Speaker 1: I was to have a shot of coffee on an
- 6:33Speaker 1: empty stomach, very different. I'd be up all night as well.
- 6:36Speaker 14: Well, there we go.
- 6:36Speaker 2: We're learning a lot about coffee today. What about a
- 6:39Speaker 2: firing squad? What's this story?
- 6:41Speaker 3: Yeah, this story is crazy. Pretty wild, to be honest.
- 6:44Speaker 12: I don't know if you've seen it, but the US,
- 6:46Speaker 12: they're planning on live streaming an execution in December. It
- 6:51Speaker 12: was a guy that shot up an army base. He
- 6:53Speaker 12: was convicted. I believe he killed 12 people back in 2009.
- 6:58Speaker 12: Now they're going to shoot him in December, and they're
- 7:01Speaker 12: going to live stream it around the world.
- 7:04Speaker 2: So you can watch it.
- 7:05Speaker 12: The Trump administration wants to put this live to the world,
- 7:07Speaker 12: and now that has come back here in Australia, and
- 7:10Speaker 12: the PM's saying they're going to try and do all
- 7:12Speaker 12: that they can to to block the live stream from
- 7:14Speaker 12: happening here in Australia.
- 7:15Speaker 3: But it looks like I think that's pretty hard to do.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Can't they geo-block it or whatever they call it?
- 7:21Speaker 12: Yeah, I just heard one of the ministers yesterday saying
- 7:24Speaker 12: that they would have difficulties with trying to.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Who's going to watch that, though? Would you watch someone
- 7:29Speaker 2: getting shot, like fire squad?
- 7:31Speaker 1: I just think.
- 7:32Speaker 2: No.
- 7:32Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I don't want to see that ever.
- 7:34Speaker 8: No.
- 7:35Speaker 1: And I know that guy's a bad guy. Yeah. And, like,
- 7:37Speaker 1: put him to death, that's fine. But don't broadcast it live.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so Trump to do that, though, isn't it?
- 7:42Speaker 2: And what about they tried to kill that girl last week?
- 7:46Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 7:46Speaker 2: They gave her the lethal injection twice, and she's still alive.
- 7:50Speaker 5: What?
- 7:50Speaker 12: Yeah, and she was, like, convicted in 95, so she
- 7:53Speaker 12: spent nearly 30-odd years, and then I think she's in Tennessee.
- 7:56Speaker 12: They hadn't done it in 200 years or something like that.
- 8:00Speaker 2: For a woman, yeah.
- 8:00Speaker 3: For a woman?
- 8:01Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 8:01Speaker 3: And then gave her two pumps of this lethal injection.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Still alive, yeah.
- 8:06Speaker 3: Failed.
- 8:07Speaker 12: She spent a few days in a coma in hospital,
- 8:10Speaker 12: and then now she's back in prison alive.
- 8:13Speaker 2: The thing is, right, no one, no doctors want to
- 8:15Speaker 2: perform this because if you're a doctor, you're not going
- 8:18Speaker 2: to kill someone. No matter what, right?
- 8:20Speaker 5: Of course.
- 8:20Speaker 2: It's not your thing. So the people I've heard, the
- 8:23Speaker 2: people that have to try and administer it are just
- 8:25Speaker 2: prison staff and they're not finding the vein. They don't
- 8:28Speaker 2: know how to do it. They're like, would you know
- 8:30Speaker 2: how to? No, not at all. Neither would I, yeah?
- 8:33Speaker 2: So they're screwing it up.
- 8:36Speaker 4: So she's done it once and then come back and
- 8:38Speaker 4: then they've tried again and she's- Oh, twice in.
- 8:40Speaker 2: The one sitting.
- 8:41Speaker 3: I think they gave her two doses, yeah.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Yeah, two doses, but they still got it wrong. Isn't
- 8:45Speaker 2: it horrific?
- 8:46Speaker 1: That is so bad.
- 8:48Speaker 2: And now we're doing tradie versus lady. You can win
- 8:50Speaker 2: a brand new Oppo smartphone. Let's get into it.
- 8:53Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 8:53Speaker 1: Good morning, Kim.
- 8:55Speaker 16: Good morning.
- 8:56Speaker 1: Hi, guys.
- 8:57Speaker 2: How are you?
- 9:00Speaker 17: How are you?
- 9:01Speaker 11: I'm really well.
- 9:03Speaker 17: Really well.
- 9:03Speaker 16: Very excited.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I'm glad you made it through. So you work in sales.
- 9:07Speaker 1: What do you sell?
- 9:08Speaker 18: Yes, I do.
- 9:09Speaker 17: I sell freight.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Oh, like freight. So that's all the big shipping containers
- 9:14Speaker 1: and stuff, right?
- 9:16Speaker 16: Oh, not really.
- 9:17Speaker 17: The freight that comes to your doorstep every day when.
- 9:20Speaker 19: You buy something online.
- 9:22Speaker 2: That's it.
- 9:23Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure I keep you in business, Kim. I
- 9:25Speaker 4: do so much online shopping. I love a little delivery
- 9:28Speaker 4: on my front door.
- 9:29Speaker 2: What's the latest thing you bought?
- 9:32Speaker 18: We absolutely appreciate it.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Oh, okay. Well, I can keep doing it, obviously.
- 9:37Speaker 4: I was at the shoot yesterday and the lady used
- 9:39Speaker 4: a lip on me, like a lipstick pencil thing.
- 9:41Speaker 2: And you would have bought it.
- 9:42Speaker 1: And I bought it on the spot, yeah.
- 9:44Speaker 4: Even when I do a shoot and, like, the stylist
- 9:46Speaker 4: is there and she's showing me all new clothes, as
- 9:49Speaker 4: I'm trying on clothes, I was like, ooh, add to cart,
- 9:51Speaker 4: add to cart.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Are they upselling you? No, not at all.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Stylists just pull together looks.
- 9:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 9:58Speaker 1: But once you try them on, you're like, ooh, I've
- 10:00Speaker 1: like these pair of jeans.
- 10:01Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 10:02Speaker 2: Back in the day, Amy, they used to let you
- 10:03Speaker 2: keep them.
- 10:04Speaker 1: I know.
- 10:04Speaker 2: It doesn't happen anymore. You'd go and get photos done
- 10:07Speaker 2: in the clothes and you'd keep all the clothes.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Oh, that would have been nice.
- 10:10Speaker 2: You didn't keep any of the clothes from the shoot?
- 10:12Speaker 1: No, I didn't. I had to buy them all.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Mental.
- 10:14Speaker 20: Mental.
- 10:14Speaker 4: Anyway, so you are married with one son, Kim. You
- 10:18Speaker 4: drive a Mitsubishi Outlander. And when your son was eight,
- 10:23Speaker 4: he dropped his phone in the toilet after, what had
- 10:28Speaker 4: he done in there first?
- 10:31Speaker 17: Oh, he'd done a number two.
- 10:33Speaker 7: Yuck.
- 10:34Speaker 1: And then he dropped his phone on top of it?
- 10:38Speaker 17: Well, yes, right in the toilet bowl, came screaming out
- 10:43Speaker 17: and I thought, oh my gosh, what's wrong, what's wrong?
- 10:47Speaker 17: And so I had to, I ran in there and
- 10:49Speaker 17: that's what he'd done, he dropped it in, so I
- 10:51Speaker 17: had to fish it out.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Gross.
- 10:53Speaker 4: You've had to push it out around the fecal matter.
- 10:56Speaker 4: You know, my toilet, my toilet, one of my kids,
- 10:59Speaker 4: I don't know which one it is, but one of
- 11:01Speaker 4: them is a culprit for using like half a toilet
- 11:04Speaker 4: roll every time they do big business.
- 11:06Speaker 1: And I have had to, many a times.
- 11:10Speaker 4: put on a kitchen glove and go fishing to hook.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Out clumps and clumps.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Of toilet paper around murky poo water. The shit that
- 11:24Speaker 1: you have to do with kids is just vile.
- 11:27Speaker 2: I remember my old man using a coat hanger.
- 11:29Speaker 1: A coat hanger.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Yeah, that's also good.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Also very, very good. And boiling hot water sometimes.
- 11:35Speaker 2: Oh, does that work?
- 11:36Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 11:37Speaker 2: We didn't put the coat hanger back into the wardrobe.
- 11:39Speaker 2: Don't worry.
- 11:40Speaker 1: No, because you've got to dismantle it as well.
- 11:42Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like one of those silver ones that you
- 11:44Speaker 2: pull apart. Yeah. Oh, gross.
- 11:46Speaker 8: All right.
- 11:46Speaker 4: Weighing in at 65 kgs, it's turd, turd, turd, turd
- 11:52Speaker 4: is the word.
- 11:53Speaker 3: It's Tim.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Turd, turd, turd, turd is the word.
- 11:58Speaker 5: It's Tim.
- 11:58Speaker 6: Oh, my gosh.
- 12:05Speaker 1: Okay, yep.
- 12:06Speaker 2: Should we meet our bloke? I never heard that song. Will, hello, Will.
- 12:10Speaker 3: Hey, Will.
- 12:12Speaker 5: Hello, how you going?
- 12:12Speaker 2: Yeah, good, man. All right, your work is a chippy.
- 12:16Speaker 2: You've got a great wall cannon. Partner of four years. Now,
- 12:21Speaker 2: you went on a date riding a lime bike. You
- 12:25Speaker 2: guys went on a lime bike date.
- 12:27Speaker 1: How romantic.
- 12:28Speaker 5: It was after the dinner. We decided to go for
- 12:31Speaker 5: a ride through the city.
- 12:31Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 12:32Speaker 5: And I was on one of those lime bikes. went
- 12:35Speaker 5: off the edge of a curb and landed on the
- 12:38Speaker 5: seat rather heavily.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:41Speaker 5: And twisted my nuts on impact, but slept on it.
- 12:47Speaker 5: Next morning, went to ER. They said, yeah, we're going
- 12:50Speaker 5: to have to give you an ultrasound. And as the
- 12:52Speaker 5: lady was massaging the area, she managed to detwist them.
- 12:58Speaker 2: So you had twisted nuts from your first date. I'm
- 13:00Speaker 2: guessing you guys didn't go home together after that.
- 13:04Speaker 5: No, we did.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Did you get it on?
- 13:06Speaker 5: No, no, I was in a bit of pain.
- 13:08Speaker 1: I was going to say, is it really painful, Will?
- 13:12Speaker 5: It felt like my whole stomach was locked up, like
- 13:15Speaker 5: in a knot.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Women will never understand the pain of twisted testicles. No,
- 13:21Speaker 2: it's really painful.
- 13:22Speaker 1: No, have you ever had yours twisted?
- 13:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been kicked in the balls, that hurt.
- 13:26Speaker 1: That's not the same.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Was it worse than being kicked in the balls, Will?
- 13:31Speaker 5: It was up there. It was just a different pain. Like,
- 13:34Speaker 5: I couldn't get away from it. I couldn't stand up straight.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Yeah, like, oh.
- 13:37Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 13:38Speaker 1: But the lady giving you an ultrasound and massaging your balls,
- 13:41Speaker 1: is that actually, like, was that all above board?
- 13:44Speaker 2: Was it a massage parlor?
- 13:46Speaker 5: Well, I didn't know at the time. I'd never done
- 13:48Speaker 5: it before. But apparently they have to ultrasound to see
- 13:50Speaker 5: what's going on. And then in that process, she sort
- 13:53Speaker 5: of worked it out.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Was it instant relief?
- 13:57Speaker 3: No.
- 13:57Speaker 5: It was still a bit of pain after, but. Yeah,
- 14:00Speaker 5: but then she said, oh, it's actually untwisted.
- 14:03Speaker 10: Oh, God.
- 14:03Speaker 2: She got it. What a specialist.
- 14:06Speaker 1: Yeah, she's handled a few balls in her time.
- 14:08Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 14:08Speaker 3: She was all over it.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Weighing in at 80 kilos, it's Twisted Testy Will. Yeah!
- 14:16Speaker 2: Here we go, mate. Amy's got your questions. Good luck.
- 14:19Speaker 1: All right. Will, what is potpourri?
- 14:22Speaker 17: Potpourri?
- 14:25Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 14:27Speaker 5: Oh, potpourri.
- 14:28Speaker 11: Um....
- 14:30Speaker 16: Oh.
- 14:31Speaker 1: Your grandma has it probably.
- 14:32Speaker 2: My mum has it.
- 14:33Speaker 1: My grandma always has it.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Any idea, mate?
- 14:36Speaker 5: Oh, like some sort of crockery?
- 14:38Speaker 7: Nah.
- 14:38Speaker 22: No.
- 14:39Speaker 4: You know the dried, fragrant flower petals and leaves? So
- 14:44Speaker 4: they usually come in like a kind of clearish mesh bag.
- 14:48Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:48Speaker 4: And the oldies love to put them in like socks
- 14:51Speaker 4: and undies drawers to keep everything fresh.
- 14:53Speaker 2: Or the bathroom.
- 14:54Speaker 1: The bathroom, yeah.
- 14:55Speaker 2: All right, mate.
- 14:56Speaker 3: All good.
- 14:58Speaker 4: At what time of life might a woman have hormone
- 15:01Speaker 4: replacement therapy?
- 15:03Speaker 1: So women, yeah, HRT.
- 15:08Speaker 5: When they're going through. Through menopause.
- 15:11Speaker 23: Yay.
- 15:11Speaker 1: Well done. That was a good one.
- 15:13Speaker 2: I kind of helped there. You kind of helped. Yeah,
- 15:15Speaker 2: all right. All right, mate. You got one.
- 15:17Speaker 3: All right.
- 15:18Speaker 1: What does the brand Love Lou make?
- 15:23Speaker 2: Oh, I love blue.
- 15:24Speaker 5: It'll either be active wear or makeup. I'll go active wear.
- 15:28Speaker 1: No, it's sunglasses. Yeah.
- 15:32Speaker 5: Wrong on both sides.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Yeah, man. All good. Hold in there. We'll see if
- 15:36Speaker 2: we come back to you. Let's go to Kim. Ready
- 15:38Speaker 2: to go, Kim?
- 15:39Speaker 17: Ready to go.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Okay, the Dulux Paint Lexicon Quarter is a shade of
- 15:45Speaker 2: what colour? Lexicon Quarter. It's a shade of a colour.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Common colour.
- 15:55Speaker 17: I'll go with white.
- 15:58Speaker 1: Yeah, good guess.
- 16:00Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. There are different shades of white.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Oh, there are so many different shades of white. White
- 16:06Speaker 1: on white.
- 16:06Speaker 14: Yes.
- 16:07Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot.
- 16:07Speaker 19: I've just been painting it.
- 16:08Speaker 10: Oh, well done.
- 16:09Speaker 2: Have you?
- 16:10Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 16:11Speaker 2: How bad's the smell through the house?
- 16:14Speaker 16: Oh, yeah.
- 16:15Speaker 17: It's fresh.
- 16:16Speaker 6: Let's just say that.
- 16:17Speaker 4: Isn't it funny how everyone always thinks, oh, painting and
- 16:19Speaker 4: like renovating a house is so wholesome and stuff and
- 16:22Speaker 4: You're painting and splashing paint on each other, and.
- 16:24Speaker 1: It's just hell. It's actually, and your arms get so sore.
- 16:29Speaker 10: Not fun.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Not fun. All right, what is a volumetric mobile mixer
- 16:35Speaker 2: used for?
- 16:38Speaker 17: Oh, mixing concrete?
- 16:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Yeah, wow.
- 16:41Speaker 2: Now, you got two. I don't think we go back
- 16:43Speaker 2: to Will at all. We give it to you. You're
- 16:44Speaker 2: the winner. Yay!
- 16:45Speaker 17: Oh, that's awesome.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Well done, Kim. So no one really understands what the
- 16:52Speaker 1: correct etiquette is surrounding, you know, bringing a partner to events,
- 16:57Speaker 1: especially things like weddings.
- 16:59Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 16:59Speaker 4: And, I mean, I've been in this position before where
- 17:03Speaker 4: you bring a partner to a wedding, maybe you're going
- 17:05Speaker 4: out with them for X amount of years and they're
- 17:09Speaker 4: in all the family photos.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, all the wedding photos.
- 17:12Speaker 4: All the wedding photos. And then, lo and behold, You're
- 17:17Speaker 4: not together anymore.
- 17:18Speaker 1: The relationship ends, right?
- 17:19Speaker 4: So the guys on the Mamma Mia Out Loud podcast
- 17:22Speaker 4: were actually discussing this recently. Have a listen to what
- 17:25Speaker 4: they say because I think we're all in agreeance. Like
- 17:28Speaker 4: is there something that you can do to ensure that
- 17:31Speaker 4: wedding photos for these big family events aren't ruined?
- 17:35Speaker 2: All right, let's check it out.
- 17:36Speaker 20: I have a lot of friends who have photos from
- 17:40Speaker 20: weddings weddings, events with ex-partners in them. And those photos
- 17:45Speaker 20: are forever ruined. How are you meant to have that
- 17:47Speaker 20: framed on your wall? And someone comes in and says, oh,
- 17:50Speaker 20: who's that gentleman? Oh, well, he actually cheated on me.
- 17:53Speaker 20: And that was two husbands ago, right? Like you don't
- 17:56Speaker 20: want that on your wall.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like the bridal party are the most
- 18:00Speaker 2: important photos, right? So hopefully you don't have that. But
- 18:03Speaker 2: I can tell you, man, I've had so many failed relationships.
- 18:06Speaker 2: The amount of my friends that have got married that
- 18:08Speaker 2: would have photos of ex-girlfriends just from the day with
- 18:13Speaker 2: me in them, there'd be heaps.
- 18:15Speaker 4: I think about like, but I also think, I can
- 18:19Speaker 4: understand if there's been some sort of infidelity in the relationship.
- 18:24Speaker 1: That would be hard to look.
- 18:26Speaker 4: At family photos and stuff and see that asshole in them, right?
- 18:30Speaker 1: So I understand that.
- 18:31Speaker 4: But, I mean, like Ryan's parents both got remarried and
- 18:35Speaker 4: he was there with his long-time girlfriend of like nine years.
- 18:37Speaker 5: Right.
- 18:38Speaker 1: So she's in every photo. So you go to the house.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Because you can't say to her.
- 18:41Speaker 1: No, of course you can't.
- 18:42Speaker 2: You can do an awkward one.
- 18:44Speaker 10: No. No, no, no.
- 18:45Speaker 2: You can do like just the family. So if it
- 18:48Speaker 2: was me, it'd be me and my sister.
- 18:50Speaker 3: Yes.
- 18:51Speaker 2: But then we'd kick her husband out of the photo.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Even though they're married?
- 18:54Speaker 2: I know. You can't, can you? And then if you
- 18:57Speaker 2: did that, it'd be like, well, why isn't my girlfriend
- 18:59Speaker 2: also in the photo?
- 19:01Speaker 4: Well, I remember I was dating this guy and we
- 19:04Speaker 4: had quite a toxic relationship. And we went to his
- 19:07Speaker 4: sister's engagement party and she made.
- 19:10Speaker 1: A point of asking me to step out.
- 19:12Speaker 4: Of the photo because she knew and rightly so.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Like we broke up like three weeks.
- 19:17Speaker 4: Later, but she made a point of being like, Ames,
- 19:21Speaker 4: could we just get a family photo?
- 19:22Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, you do you boo. I'm not,
- 19:24Speaker 1: I didn't plan on sticking around anyway.
- 19:26Speaker 2: The other one you could do is ask him to
- 19:27Speaker 2: take the photo.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Hey, Amy, do you mind if you get a- Oh,
- 19:30Speaker 1: that's a good idea.
- 19:31Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 19:31Speaker 2: So I had this girlfriend, I don't know, three or
- 19:34Speaker 2: four years. It was one of these toxic ones, really
- 19:37Speaker 2: full on.
- 19:38Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 19:38Speaker 2: But my parents didn't know the full extent of it.
- 19:40Speaker 15: Yeah, of course.
- 19:41Speaker 2: They thought she was lovely. And we got a family photo.
- 19:45Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 19:46Speaker 2: And then my dad's a painter. like he does watercolours.
- 19:48Speaker 1: I thought he was a scientist.
- 19:49Speaker 2: Yeah, and as a hobby he paints.
- 19:51Speaker 5: Oh, okay, yeah.
- 19:52Speaker 2: It's one of his hobbies. So he decided to take
- 19:55Speaker 2: this photo that we had and turn it into like
- 19:58Speaker 2: a really nice watercolour painting of the family.
- 20:00Speaker 8: Yeah, okay, yeah.
- 20:01Speaker 10: So it was.
- 20:01Speaker 2: The whole family and me and this girlfriend. And he
- 20:04Speaker 2: hung it up in our holiday home.
- 20:05Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 20:06Speaker 2: And then, of course, we broke up.
- 20:07Speaker 6: Yes.
- 20:07Speaker 2: Because we were going to break up. And every time
- 20:09Speaker 2: I'd go to that holiday home, I'd walk in.
- 20:12Speaker 1: PTSD. Oh, and it's like, ah! There she is.
- 20:15Speaker 2: And I said, can you just pull that bloody thing down?
- 20:17Speaker 2: He said, no, I put a lot of effort into that.
- 20:20Speaker 2: I came back a week later.
- 20:21Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 20:23Speaker 2: He turned her into a tree. He took it off
- 20:28Speaker 2: the wall and standing next to me instead of the
- 20:31Speaker 2: girlfriend I was holding is.
- 20:32Speaker 1: A palm tree. Hey, he's done what you asked.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Well, he got rid of her.
- 20:38Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 20:38Speaker 2: She was kind of tall and skinny anyway, so she
- 20:41Speaker 2: looked like a tree, I suppose.
- 20:42Speaker 1: That's actually a good way of kind of managing it right.
- 20:45Speaker 4: Get your partners or the girlfriends or whatever at the time,
- 20:49Speaker 4: get them to stand on the edge of the photo.
- 20:51Speaker 2: And they can become a tree.
- 20:52Speaker 1: Or they can be cropped out. Yeah.
- 20:55Speaker 2: Yeah, Mikey, Amy Gerard with you. Do you do your
- 20:58Speaker 2: grocery shopping or do you have it delivered?
- 21:01Speaker 1: I do both, to be honest.
- 21:02Speaker 4: I get my fruit and veg and my meat from
- 21:06Speaker 4: the farmer's markets, but I still have to go to
- 21:08Speaker 4: Coles or Woolies or one of those shops to get
- 21:12Speaker 4: extra things, lunchbox stuff.
- 21:13Speaker 2: People are outraged about something at Coles, actually. They're quietly
- 21:18Speaker 2: put up their bags.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Don't get me started on this. Nothing has angered me
- 21:24Speaker 1: more than when all these big people Supermarkets came out
- 21:27Speaker 1: under the guise of, you know, we want to protect
- 21:29Speaker 1: the government. We're getting rid of plastic bags. Bullshit. You
- 21:33Speaker 1: just wanted to charge us for paper bags.
- 21:35Speaker 2: So they were $ 0.
- 21:36Speaker 5: 20.
- 21:36Speaker 2: They're now $ 0.
- 21:38Speaker 5: 30.
- 21:38Speaker 2: I mean, it's not much. Reusable ones, I've never bothered
- 21:42Speaker 2: with that. They've gone from $ 3. 20, so up $ 0.
- 21:44Speaker 11: 20.
- 21:44Speaker 2: I had a girlfriend who always made me take reusable
- 21:46Speaker 2: ones with me.
- 21:47Speaker 5: No.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I don't either.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Like, I've got a stack of them in the boot
- 21:56Speaker 4: of my car. Do you think I ever, ever remember
- 22:00Speaker 4: to take them with me? My thing is, if they
- 22:02Speaker 4: were so big on, like, if it was for the environment,
- 22:07Speaker 4: why charge us for the paper bags?
- 22:10Speaker 2: Oh, they should be free.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Yes.
- 22:11Speaker 2: I think they are in America. They're free.
- 22:13Speaker 5: Well.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Can I tell you, I kind of treat them as free.
- 22:16Speaker 2: I don't know if this is naughty of me.
- 22:18Speaker 3: You know what?
- 22:19Speaker 1: My dad does the same. My dad's like, I'm not
- 22:21Speaker 1: paying for bags.
- 22:21Speaker 2: But they don't check. I mean, they might and I
- 22:25Speaker 2: get busted, whatever. But I very rarely even go in there.
- 22:29Speaker 2: It's just me. I get it delivered. I've been getting
- 22:33Speaker 2: YouTube and stuff, right? But if I do go in there,
- 22:36Speaker 2: I'm just getting a few things and I just grab
- 22:37Speaker 2: one of the paper bags and I just put everything
- 22:39Speaker 2: in it. I don't scan it. Do you, Sean?
- 22:41Speaker 3: I do, yeah.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I scan mine. Even though I don't want to.
- 22:46Speaker 1: But my dad's the same.
- 22:47Speaker 4: He's like, out of principle, I'm not paying for bags.
- 22:50Speaker 1: I'm spending X amount of money at.
- 22:51Speaker 3: This shopping centre.
- 22:52Speaker 1: I don't need to pay for my carry bags.
- 22:54Speaker 2: They should be free, right?
- 22:55Speaker 1: You're essentially stealing, Dad.
- 22:57Speaker 2: Oh, 20 cents.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Well, 30 cents now.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Oh, well, I'll go to jail with your dad.
- 23:02Speaker 3: You might.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Josh has called in about that, actually, for first calls. Hello, Josh.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Hey, Josh.
- 23:09Speaker 6: Hey, mate, how are you?
- 23:10Speaker 2: Hey, good. You're live on air. You've got a thing
- 23:12Speaker 2: about shopping.
- 23:15Speaker 15: Yeah, I got a good one for Woolies bags.
- 23:17Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 23:17Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 23:18Speaker 15: So before they turned to paper, me and a friend
- 23:21Speaker 15: were heading over to Bali.
- 23:22Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
- 23:23Speaker 15: And I decided that because we're going to Bali, I
- 23:26Speaker 15: didn't need to pack anything essential because I can buy
- 23:29Speaker 15: my essentials there. So my entire contents was just a charger,
- 23:34Speaker 15: a pair of drops and a singlet inside a Woolworths
- 23:37Speaker 15: bag for an international flight.
- 23:38Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
- 23:39Speaker 2: That's so Bali. That's so bloke going to Bali. Just
- 23:42Speaker 2: rocking up to the airport with a Woolworths.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Didn't your friend do something like that?
- 23:47Speaker 2: He went to Thailand with nothing.
- 23:49Speaker 1: So Josh, you didn't even take undies or anything with you?
- 23:53Speaker 15: Oh, just one pair, yeah.
- 23:55Speaker 2: That's all you need?
- 23:56Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 23:57Speaker 5: You're an animal.
- 23:57Speaker 15: If you give them a chance to turn them.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Inside out, I'll get another week out of them. Oh,
- 24:04Speaker 2: you animal. 131065, we're doing first calls if you want
- 24:07Speaker 2: to have a chat. Here's Carilla. Hello, Carilla.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Hey, Carilla.
- 24:10Speaker 7: Hi, guys.
- 24:11Speaker 15: Yeah, I just want to talk about the fridge attack
- 24:14Speaker 15: in France. You know how it got shut down by attackers?
- 24:17Speaker 2: We were hearing about that.
- 24:20Speaker 1: And where all the cheese and everything's stored.
- 24:22Speaker 2: Yeah, so hackers hacked into the, talking of supermarkets over
- 24:26Speaker 2: there in France, and they hacked into their freezers. Now,
- 24:30Speaker 2: normally fridges are set at about between 1 and 4,
- 24:33Speaker 2: and freezers are at minus 18. The hackers turned all
- 24:39Speaker 2: of them up to 50 degrees Celsius, ruining the food supply.
- 24:44Speaker 2: And even causing fires in some of them. You've heard
- 24:48Speaker 2: about these, Sean?
- 24:48Speaker 3: That's insane.
- 24:49Speaker 4: Yeah, but they're saying it's Russia. I swear to God,
- 24:51Speaker 4: you know who I reckon it is? Some like teenage
- 24:53Speaker 4: kid who's like playing a prank. As if Russia is going, oh.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Let's attack their cheese.
- 25:00Speaker 14: I don't know.
- 25:00Speaker 2: They like their cheese. Yeah, I know.
- 25:02Speaker 1: But like they're not taking out their cheese.
- 25:05Speaker 2: How annoying is it? Have you ever come home and
- 25:06Speaker 2: someone's left the fridge door open?
- 25:08Speaker 4: Or just like if an extra something's gone off in
- 25:11Speaker 4: my kitchen and everything in there And the fridge goes off.
- 25:15Speaker 2: Do you clean your fridge? I'm your mentor. I remember
- 25:17Speaker 2: mum doing that, like pulling everything out and defrosting. Is
- 25:20Speaker 2: that still a thing?
- 25:21Speaker 1: Defrosting?
- 25:22Speaker 2: Yeah, don't you remember? Oh, that's right.
- 25:23Speaker 12: You take out all of the frozen food and then
- 25:26Speaker 12: let the ice melt.
- 25:28Speaker 2: Is that right?
- 25:28Speaker 3: And then you sort of restart, turn the fridge back on.
- 25:31Speaker 2: Yeah, why did we used to do that?
- 25:32Speaker 1: I've never done that.
- 25:33Speaker 2: No, neither have I.
- 25:34Speaker 3: I think my mum used to do it or something.
- 25:35Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 25:36Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 25:36Speaker 2: I don't know why.
- 25:37Speaker 1: Is it an old wives tale?
- 25:38Speaker 2: Maybe it's an old boomer thing.
- 25:40Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 25:40Speaker 2: If anyone knows why we used to defrost our fridges,
- 25:43Speaker 2: please call in. All right, time to do a brand
- 25:45Speaker 2: new helpline.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Yeah, so we've got Danielle on the phone. She's given
- 25:49Speaker 1: us a call because she's in a bit of a
- 25:50Speaker 1: tricky spot with her boyfriend at the moment.
- 25:54Speaker 4: So he wants to make a big life change and–
- 25:59Speaker 4: She thinks it could potentially be the end of their relationship.
- 26:03Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
- 26:04Speaker 4: So she's on the phone right now and she can
- 26:07Speaker 4: tell us a little bit more about what's going on.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Hey, Danielle.
- 26:10Speaker 10: Hi, guys.
- 26:11Speaker 8: Morning.
- 26:12Speaker 22: Hello.
- 26:12Speaker 2: How long have you been with him?
- 26:14Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 26:14Speaker 11: So I've been with my boyfriend for like.
- 26:17Speaker 13: About a year now.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Are you pretty serious?
- 26:20Speaker 11: Yes.
- 26:21Speaker 21: Yeah, like, we're pretty serious.
- 26:23Speaker 11: We were thinking about maybe, like, moving in together soon.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:27Speaker 6: Yeah, so we've been pretty serious.
- 26:28Speaker 11: But, yeah, he's been a tradie, and he's just got
- 26:31Speaker 11: this new job, which he's pretty dead set on taking.
- 26:34Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 26:34Speaker 19: It's a FIFO job.
- 26:36Speaker 1: A what? It's a FIFO job.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Oh, fly in, fly out, like in WA or something.
- 26:41Speaker 11: Yeah, so he'll be two weeks on and one week off,
- 26:44Speaker 11: so I won't see him for two weeks at a time.
- 26:46Speaker 22: Oh, well.
- 26:47Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so.
- 26:50Speaker 2: Is that the problem?
- 26:52Speaker 1: You don't want to do long distance. Is that kind
- 26:54Speaker 1: of where your head's at?
- 26:56Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm not sure if it'll be good for me.
- 26:58Speaker 11: I mean, I've got some trust issues from past relationships
- 27:03Speaker 11: I've been cheated on before. I don't think that the
- 27:06Speaker 11: distance will do any good for our relationship, so I'm
- 27:09Speaker 11: just wondering if it's just best to not be together.
- 27:12Speaker 15: I just don't know what to do.
- 27:13Speaker 2: Wait, are they all men? What's he going to bang
- 27:16Speaker 2: men up there or something?
- 27:17Speaker 4: Well, I think it's predominantly men, but there are a
- 27:19Speaker 4: few women who go out there.
- 27:20Speaker 1: I think it's good coin.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great money.
- 27:23Speaker 1: Yeah, the only thing I would say is....
- 27:26Speaker 4: Has he spoken about this with you or has he
- 27:29Speaker 4: kind of just made this decision and you either have
- 27:33Speaker 4: to deal with it or like basically is he going regardless?
- 27:39Speaker 11: Yeah, he's going regardless. And he has said that, like,
- 27:42Speaker 11: it'll set us up for the future because how good
- 27:44Speaker 11: the money is and all that.
- 27:45Speaker 18: But, yeah, he never really asked me if I was okay.
- 27:49Speaker 4: I would have a bit of an issue with that. Like,
- 27:51Speaker 4: you have been in a relationship now for a year.
- 27:54Speaker 4: You kind of don't want to be making decisions without
- 27:56Speaker 4: consulting each other first.
- 27:58Speaker 2: Like, I just think it's a respect thing, right? He said,
- 28:00Speaker 2: I really want to do it. How do you feel?
- 28:02Speaker 2: But it's not going to be forever. Has he got, like, a–
- 28:05Speaker 2: How long?
- 28:05Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 28:06Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 28:07Speaker 11: I'm actually not sure how long, but he has some
- 28:10Speaker 11: friends that have done this before and they've been in
- 28:12Speaker 11: it for years.
- 28:15Speaker 2: Here's the thing, but it could fully set you guys up.
- 28:18Speaker 4: I will say I've got a girlfriend who lives up
- 28:20Speaker 4: in Queensland and her partner did fly-in, fly-out work for
- 28:23Speaker 4: the first five years of their relationship and exactly that,
- 28:27Speaker 4: he set them up.
- 28:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:28Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Because it's great coin. You've got to make the sacrifice.
- 28:31Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 28:32Speaker 4: And so she was obviously without him for two weeks
- 28:35Speaker 4: and then he would fly back.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Isn't that good?
- 28:37Speaker 4: The only thing I will say, Danielle, is she said
- 28:40Speaker 4: it really kept their romance alive.
- 28:42Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 28:42Speaker 1: And she said that when he was home for that week.
- 28:46Speaker 1: It was filled with.
- 28:47Speaker 4: Like lots of dinner dates and courting and romance. And
- 28:52Speaker 4: it was like quite intentional dating for an entire week.
- 28:56Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 28:56Speaker 4: And then obviously they went away again and they would
- 28:59Speaker 4: miss each other and they, you know, FaceTiming and whatnot.
- 29:02Speaker 2: And you don't have kids or anything. Like I can see,
- 29:05Speaker 2: I could see him, your boyfriend, Danielle, thinking you're being
- 29:09Speaker 2: selfish and.
- 29:09Speaker 1: No, she's not being selfish.
- 29:11Speaker 2: That's how it would come off, right? He's got this idea.
- 29:13Speaker 2: He's going to set you guys up. It's a really
- 29:16Speaker 2: good opportunity. And it's not like he's pissing off for
- 29:19Speaker 2: three years. You're going to see him every couple of weeks.
- 29:21Speaker 2: And you're like, no, because you might be getting it
- 29:24Speaker 2: on with... Some tractor girl up there.
- 29:27Speaker 11: Yeah, so you can see the dilemma that I'm in, guys.
- 29:31Speaker 11: I don't know what to do.
- 29:32Speaker 2: Like, Nat, how would you feel if Cain had done
- 29:34Speaker 2: this before you were pregnant?
- 29:36Speaker 3: I wouldn't have stayed with him.
- 29:37Speaker 10: Really?
- 29:38Speaker 1: No, no.
- 29:39Speaker 2: What is that the yeah but.
- 29:40Speaker 9: It's just that's not the relationship i signed up for
- 29:44Speaker 9: so and like you know if he tried to do
- 29:46Speaker 9: it now i mean obviously a whole different story i'm
- 29:48Speaker 9: pregnant but it's i understand he's setting her up for
- 29:50Speaker 9: life and everything but she has every right to say
- 29:52Speaker 9: that's not the kind of relationship i want And I
- 29:55Speaker 9: don't think it's only that she's worried about cheating. It's also,
- 29:58Speaker 9: she said, like, she has to deal with him not
- 30:00Speaker 9: being there half the time.
- 30:02Speaker 4: A lot of girls would prefer to have their partner
- 30:04Speaker 4: close by a lot of the time.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Can I ask, Danielle, do you trust your boyfriend?
- 30:10Speaker 21: Yeah, I do trust him.
- 30:11Speaker 11: I'm just worried that, you know, the distance might change that.
- 30:16Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a big change to their relationship, like having
- 30:21Speaker 4: him close by and potentially moving in together and seeing
- 30:24Speaker 4: him every day to essentially doing long distance.
- 30:28Speaker 2: For a while. Yeah, all right. Well, let's hear from
- 30:31Speaker 2: other people. I'm sure a lot of people have been
- 30:32Speaker 2: through it. 131065, do the FIFO relationships work? Should Danielle
- 30:38Speaker 2: go with it or has she got a right to
- 30:42Speaker 2: not want him to go?
- 30:43Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 30:44Speaker 1: It's interesting.
- 30:45Speaker 4: Like I love my own time, even in relationships and
- 30:48Speaker 4: even before I had children.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Like I, if there was like a short, if there
- 30:53Speaker 1: was like.
- 30:53Speaker 4: A three year period where I knew that that was
- 30:56Speaker 4: going to be the case, I would probably be fine
- 30:58Speaker 4: with it. I actually just love being on my own
- 31:01Speaker 4: and seeing my girlfriend. So I'd be like, If anything,
- 31:04Speaker 4: it would just keep the honeymoon period of a relationship
- 31:08Speaker 4: alive and well for me.
- 31:09Speaker 2: That's the thing. All right, we're going to take your calls.
- 31:11Speaker 2: Weigh in here. Help out Danielle131065. Should she be okay
- 31:18Speaker 2: with her partner going off to do FIFO work? What
- 31:20Speaker 2: do you reckon? We are doing the helpline and we've
- 31:24Speaker 2: got Danielle today. So her partner wants to piss off, basically.
- 31:29Speaker 1: No, he wants to do FIFO, fly in, fly out work.
- 31:32Speaker 2: Is it FIFO or FIFO?
- 31:33Speaker 1: FIFO. Is it FIFO? We all say FIFO, but we
- 31:37Speaker 1: could be wrong.
- 31:38Speaker 2: What does it matter, really? Fly in, fly out.
- 31:40Speaker 9: Ask if someone calls that does FIFO.
- 31:42Speaker 2: FIFO?
- 31:42Speaker 1: Or FIFO.
- 31:43Speaker 17: FIFO, thumb.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Yeah, let's... Well, yeah, he wants to go away.
- 31:51Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 31:52Speaker 1: I don't think it's an issue.
- 31:53Speaker 4: Nat wouldn't like it. Danielle doesn't really like the idea
- 31:56Speaker 4: of it. I'm saying it could... Well, you're saying as well,
- 31:59Speaker 4: like it could set them up.
- 32:00Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 32:01Speaker 1: And I'm saying it will... It's nice.
- 32:04Speaker 4: It keeps the romance blossoming in a relationship for a while, but.
- 32:09Speaker 1: We've had so many calls on this.
- 32:12Speaker 2: A lot of people calling in. And Danielle, you did
- 32:14Speaker 2: say you got some trust issues, yeah?
- 32:16Speaker 1: But not with him, just from past exes, right?
- 32:19Speaker 2: Yeah, not him.
- 32:19Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 32:20Speaker 10: Yeah, just from past experience.
- 32:23Speaker 3: Okay.
- 32:24Speaker 2: All right, FIFO work. Good idea for the relationship or not.
- 32:27Speaker 2: They're not married. They don't have kids. They've only been
- 32:30Speaker 2: together a year.
- 32:30Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 32:31Speaker 2: Is now the time to do it.
- 32:32Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Deborah, hi. Hi, Deborah.
- 32:36Speaker 10: Good morning.
- 32:37Speaker 16: Just want to shed a different perspective, I guess.
- 32:40Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 32:40Speaker 16: You know, it's great to try and set yourself up
- 32:42Speaker 16: for life, and it will be not easy. But I
- 32:46Speaker 16: think to my grandparents who were separated by war for
- 32:49Speaker 16: two years, And they chose each other. And there was
- 32:52Speaker 16: no choice in that matter. And I think when it
- 32:54Speaker 16: comes to relationships, if someone's going to cheat on you,
- 32:57Speaker 16: they'll cheat on you whether they're around the corner or not.
- 32:59Speaker 16: You have to choose each other. Choose each other first
- 33:02Speaker 16: if that's what you really want. But, yeah, it might
- 33:04Speaker 16: be a sacrifice, but, you know, plenty of people have
- 33:07Speaker 16: had sacrifices.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like in the war.
- 33:09Speaker 4: There's a perspective to think about. Separated by war for
- 33:13Speaker 4: two years and they stayed together.
- 33:14Speaker 1: That's pretty sweet.
- 33:16Speaker 2: Stephanie, hello. What do you think?
- 33:18Speaker 1: Hey, Steph.
- 33:19Speaker 19: Hi.
- 33:20Speaker 21: Hi, Danielle. Well, I just want to say, firstly, I
- 33:22Speaker 21: have such... I'm a little bit of a man-hater, but in.
- 33:26Speaker 10: This case, I.
- 33:29Speaker 21: See that... I don't want to say you're being selfish,
- 33:33Speaker 21: but I see that you're looking at yourself when not
- 33:36Speaker 21: only can he set up your life together if you
- 33:38Speaker 21: stay together, but he can set up his own life.
- 33:41Speaker 21: And something to hold him back from financially would be...
- 33:45Speaker 21: It's so expensive at the moment. And if he can
- 33:50Speaker 21: get some money in the bank, it's a massive advantage.
- 33:54Speaker 21: And I agree with the last caller. And if he's
- 33:57Speaker 21: going to cheat, he's going.
- 33:58Speaker 16: To cheat, whatever.
- 34:00Speaker 21: But it's probably– and the reason he's probably doing it
- 34:03Speaker 21: is he feels safe in the relationship. He's probably safe
- 34:08Speaker 21: and thinking, great, I'll get a head start and start
- 34:11Speaker 21: setting this up. And I think it's a good thing.
- 34:14Speaker 2: Holding someone back in a relationship.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Yeah, it never ends well.
- 34:18Speaker 2: There's going to be animosity. Let's say he doesn't go
- 34:20Speaker 2: because he feels Danielle is not okay with it.
- 34:23Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 34:23Speaker 2: How's that going to go?
- 34:25Speaker 1: Yeah, well, resentment will build.
- 34:28Speaker 2: It will, right? Yeah. Trevor, what are your thoughts on
- 34:31Speaker 2: the FIFO work, mate?
- 34:32Speaker 1: Hey, Trevor.
- 34:34Speaker 8: How you going? I've done it. It's a 12-hour shift.
- 34:41Speaker 8: every day for two weeks, regardless whether it's day or night.
- 34:45Speaker 8: So especially in the summer when it's really hot, the
- 34:49Speaker 8: last thing you want to be doing is mucking around
- 34:52Speaker 8: with someone.
- 34:53Speaker 4: You've got no time to play around, right?
- 34:55Speaker 2: And is it true they're all men anyway? What's she
- 34:58Speaker 2: worried about?
- 34:58Speaker 1: No, there's definitely girls.
- 35:01Speaker 8: The majority are men, but there are cleaners out there
- 35:05Speaker 8: that are women that go through and clean the cabins
- 35:07Speaker 8: every day.
- 35:08Speaker 2: Right, so they could clean his cabin.
- 35:11Speaker 8: While you're at work, they're cleaning the cabin. So if
- 35:14Speaker 8: Danielle was to want to go over there as well,
- 35:17Speaker 8: she could be a cleaner.
- 35:18Speaker 2: Oh, there you go. They could go together.
- 35:21Speaker 4: Wait, I want to ask Trev. Trev, get Trev back.
- 35:24Speaker 4: Is it FIFO or FIFO?
- 35:26Speaker 23: FIFO.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Yeah, not FIFO. You're doing the FIFO. Hey, Danielle, that idea,
- 35:33Speaker 2: what if you went with him?
- 35:34Speaker 5: No.
- 35:35Speaker 10: No.
- 35:36Speaker 11: I mean, that could be an option.
- 35:39Speaker 2: Yeah, you could both earn a lot of money. I'm
- 35:42Speaker 2: sure the cleaners up there are earning good coin too.
- 35:45Speaker 10: Yeah, I'll have to find out what they make.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Yeah, set yourselves up and, you know, it's not a
- 35:52Speaker 2: bad idea. No, you don't like the idea.
- 35:54Speaker 1: No, she'd be away from all her friends and her family. Like,
- 35:57Speaker 1: whilst your husband or your partner is working, you want
- 36:00Speaker 1: to be.
- 36:01Speaker 4: Working yourself but then coming home and being able to
- 36:04Speaker 4: go out and see friends and family and keep yourself
- 36:06Speaker 4: busy and occupied.
- 36:07Speaker 2: Right. Ananya. Are you all right? I'm fine. You say
- 36:15Speaker 2: a name.
- 36:16Speaker 1: Ananya.
- 36:19Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 36:20Speaker 1: Hello. Ananya.
- 36:22Speaker 7: Yeah, hi. My name's Ananya.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Ananya, yeah.
- 36:25Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah.
- 36:26Speaker 7: I just wanted to say that I think it's probably
- 36:28Speaker 7: not a good idea to break up now before you
- 36:32Speaker 7: guys have even like experienced long distance. And if he
- 36:35Speaker 7: does cheat, like you found out early, but if he doesn't,
- 36:39Speaker 7: like just shows you so much more that you can
- 36:41Speaker 7: trust him. And it's like the foundations of a really
- 36:43Speaker 7: secure and safe relationship.
- 36:45Speaker 1: It's a good foundation to build upon.
- 36:47Speaker 4: Danielle, is the issue that you think he's going to
- 36:49Speaker 4: cheat or is it more just you don't want to
- 36:51Speaker 4: be away from him for such long periods at a time?
- 36:54Speaker 22: Is that?
- 36:55Speaker 4: It's not so much that you think he's going to
- 36:58Speaker 4: be playing up out there, right?
- 37:00Speaker 11: Yeah, no, it's not that. It's more just like the
- 37:03Speaker 11: distance and, you know, our communication doesn't end up.
- 37:08Speaker 2: However, that was a good point. You could try it.
- 37:11Speaker 2: If it doesn't work, you break up.
- 37:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 37:14Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 37:15Speaker 11: I definitely think that I should try.
- 37:17Speaker 1: I think you should try, yeah.
- 37:19Speaker 2: Give it a go.
- 37:19Speaker 1: I actually think it'll be good for you guys.
- 37:21Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll spice it up a bit, yeah.
- 37:23Speaker 1: Yeah, you can spice it up a bit. When they
- 37:25Speaker 1: come home, you can plan like a whole week together.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Yeah, but if it turns out it's not for you,
- 37:30Speaker 2: you break up. But holding him back from doing it,
- 37:34Speaker 2: like we were talking about, with a resentment, probably not
- 37:36Speaker 2: a good idea.
- 37:37Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Now, Amy, you were just telling us that you saw
- 37:39Speaker 2: a ghost and I was going, yeah, sure. No, I
- 37:41Speaker 2: didn't say I saw a ghost.
- 37:42Speaker 4: I absolutely felt the presence of a ghost. of something
- 37:45Speaker 4: in a room with me. Very late at night, I
- 37:47Speaker 4: got woken up.
- 37:48Speaker 1: I heard tapping and I felt cold. It's a real thing.
- 37:53Speaker 1: You can– all you want.
- 37:56Speaker 2: Well, people are calling in to back you up. Other
- 38:00Speaker 2: people have felt it.
- 38:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Shania, hello.
- 38:04Speaker 1: Hey, Shania.
- 38:04Speaker 8: Hello.
- 38:05Speaker 16: How are you?
- 38:06Speaker 7: Good.
- 38:06Speaker 1: How are you?
- 38:07Speaker 22: Good, thank you. So I've actually been to the Picton Tunnel.
- 38:12Speaker 22: I went with my friend because she knew about it
- 38:15Speaker 22: and our partners didn't really believe in ghosts and I
- 38:17Speaker 22: was a bit sceptical too.
- 38:19Speaker 7: Yep.
- 38:20Speaker 22: Anyways, when we left there, we left because we heard
- 38:25Speaker 22: a noise and we all walked out and we all
- 38:28Speaker 22: had scratches on different parts of our bodies.
- 38:31Speaker 1: Yeah, and you hadn't run through any bushes or anything
- 38:34Speaker 1: like that? Did you feel yourself being scratched?
- 38:36Speaker 22: No, no running through any bushes or anything, but one
- 38:39Speaker 22: person had a scratch on their back, one person had
- 38:42Speaker 22: a scratch on their belly and one person had a
- 38:44Speaker 22: scratch on their neck.
- 38:45Speaker 1: Yeah. Picton Tunnels are, like, well known for being haunted.
- 38:50Speaker 2: Are they?
- 38:50Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 38:51Speaker 4: They're, like, even when I was in my teens, like,
- 38:54Speaker 4: I remember we drove down there.
- 38:56Speaker 2: And you went there?
- 38:57Speaker 1: Yeah, we went there.
- 38:58Speaker 4: Because there's all kinds of reports about them being haunted.
- 39:01Speaker 1: So I believe Shania.
- 39:03Speaker 19: All right.
- 39:04Speaker 2: Melanie, go on.
- 39:05Speaker 1: Hey, Mel.
- 39:06Speaker 18: Hi, how are you this morning?
- 39:08Speaker 1: Good, and yourself?
- 39:10Speaker 18: Well, thank you. My husband and I were on our
- 39:13Speaker 18: way to Caloundra for a funeral, and we stopped somewhere
- 39:17Speaker 18: near Port Macquarie at a motel, and about 5.30, 6
- 39:21Speaker 18: o'clock in the morning, the painting that was behind the
- 39:26Speaker 18: bed actually fell with force, hit me, on the head.
- 39:30Speaker 18: My husband was able to push it away. But when
- 39:34Speaker 18: I opened my eyes... Towards the hallway to the doorway,
- 39:39Speaker 18: there was a dark, smoky figure.
- 39:43Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:44Speaker 18: I could see his eyes quite clearly, and he had
- 39:47Speaker 18: this really cheeky grin as if to say, like, yes,
- 39:51Speaker 18: I got you. And then when he realised that I
- 39:56Speaker 18: could see him, he disappeared.
- 39:58Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 39:59Speaker 18: But that's not the only one I've had. I've had my,
- 40:02Speaker 18: when my father died, he came and sat on my bed.
- 40:05Speaker 1: Yes, I've heard this.
- 40:06Speaker 18: And gave me a cuddle.
- 40:07Speaker 8: Yep.
- 40:08Speaker 18: And I've had another friend whose fingers were on my
- 40:12Speaker 18: bed and I didn't know that she had passed until
- 40:16Speaker 18: the morning, but she had come to say.
- 40:18Speaker 1: Goodbye.
- 40:19Speaker 15: Her farewell.
- 40:20Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 40:20Speaker 1: And Mel, do you get scared?
- 40:23Speaker 18: It depends. Like, this smoky figure does actually haunt me.
- 40:29Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 40:29Speaker 18: But I sort of say, go away. You're not welcome.
- 40:33Speaker 1: That's what you're meant to say, right? You are not welcome.
- 40:37Speaker 22: Yes.
- 40:37Speaker 4: I had a lady tell me all of the things
- 40:39Speaker 4: that you had to say out loud, like... You are
- 40:41Speaker 4: not to follow me home.
- 40:43Speaker 1: You are not welcome.
- 40:44Speaker 2: And then they go away.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Yeah, because apparently they can latch onto you otherwise.
- 40:48Speaker 2: All right, Katie, one more here. Getting our ghost stories
- 40:52Speaker 2: agreeing with Amy that they are real.
- 40:54Speaker 1: It's like goosebumps, real-life goosebumps.
- 40:56Speaker 19: Hey, Katie.
- 40:57Speaker 5: Hi, how are you?
- 40:59Speaker 1: Good.
- 41:01Speaker 10: That's good.
- 41:02Speaker 6: So I have several ghost stories and, like, It's just insane.
- 41:09Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 41:10Speaker 6: So when I was 16, my best friend was killed
- 41:13Speaker 6: in a car accident.
- 41:15Speaker 17: Oh, sorry.
- 41:15Speaker 6: And so, yeah, horrible. But about 10 years later, I
- 41:21Speaker 6: was having a particularly bad night's sleep and I just
- 41:25Speaker 6: couldn't rest anyway.
- 41:28Speaker 19: She appeared.
- 41:29Speaker 6: She sat on the end of my bed, put her
- 41:32Speaker 6: hand on my feet and said, it's okay, go to sleep.
- 41:36Speaker 10: Oh, okay.
- 41:37Speaker 6: And I went, okay, so I went to sleep and
- 41:39Speaker 6: the next day her mum lived quite close to me.
- 41:42Speaker 6: So I went down to her and the first thing
- 41:45Speaker 6: she said to me was, did you get a visit
- 41:47Speaker 6: last night?
- 41:48Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
- 41:49Speaker 6: And I said, I did.
- 41:51Speaker 15: So she visited both of us.
- 41:55Speaker 6: Not scared, not scared at all.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Okay, well, that's good.
- 41:59Speaker 5: Was okay.
- 42:00Speaker 6: And then I also used to live in front of
- 42:03Speaker 6: a cemetery.
- 42:04Speaker 9: Okay.
- 42:04Speaker 1: Oh, God, how crazy.
- 42:05Speaker 2: Well, that's asking for trouble.
- 42:08Speaker 6: So my parents built a house out in the country
- 42:12Speaker 6: and there was an estate cemetery behind us. So all
- 42:17Speaker 6: the founders of that town would be buried there.
- 42:20Speaker 1: Okay.
- 42:21Speaker 18: And I used to hear horses all the time, all
- 42:24Speaker 18: the time. And there were no horses.
- 42:26Speaker 1: Yeah, so you could hear like horses galloping.
- 42:29Speaker 2: Side note, I remember there was this cemetery near where
- 42:32Speaker 2: I grew up and there were always cars parked out
- 42:35Speaker 2: the front of it. And as a kid, I thought
- 42:37Speaker 2: when it was your time to die, you drove to
- 42:39Speaker 2: the cemetery, parked your car there, walked in and it
- 42:43Speaker 2: was time. But no, mum and dad said, no, no, no, no.
- 42:45Speaker 2: There's a train station next to that cemetery. And that's
- 42:48Speaker 2: why everyone's parked there. Yeah. So you don't drive your
- 42:52Speaker 2: car to the cemetery.
- 42:54Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 42:55Speaker 2: Yeah. That's my two cents.
- 42:57Speaker 3: Okay.
- 42:58Speaker 2: Oh, we've got another one.
- 42:59Speaker 1: One more.
- 43:00Speaker 2: Hello, Mark.
- 43:01Speaker 3: Hi, Mark.
- 43:01Speaker 13: Hi, how are you going, guys?
- 43:03Speaker 1: You all right?
- 43:05Speaker 13: I've got a challenge for Nat if she's a sceptic.
- 43:08Speaker 16: Oh.
- 43:09Speaker 1: Did the lights just flash out there?
- 43:11Speaker 3: They did.
- 43:12Speaker 9: Yeah, 7.52 every morning they turn off.
- 43:13Speaker 2: It's weird.
- 43:14Speaker 22: That must be a ghost.
- 43:15Speaker 2: It's not a ghost. It's a famous 7.52 ghost. Yes, Mark.
- 43:18Speaker 1: What do you want to say?
- 43:21Speaker 13: Parramatta Jail do ghost tours, and you can go along,
- 43:25Speaker 13: and they put you in cells by yourself. And it
- 43:29Speaker 13: is haunted because I've seen them.
- 43:30Speaker 2: So it's the old Parramatta Jail. It's not operating anymore.
- 43:34Speaker 13: Yeah, but they actually do ghost tours and that. And
- 43:37Speaker 13: my wife's a ghost hunter, so we go regularly.
- 43:40Speaker 1: Oh, yeah?
- 43:41Speaker 2: Is she a ghost hunter?
- 43:43Speaker 13: Oh, yeah, we've caught quite a few, especially in the
- 43:46Speaker 13: old chapel. There's a guy that comes in and speaks
- 43:50Speaker 13: to us quite regularly when we go in there.
- 43:53Speaker 1: What's his name?
- 43:53Speaker 4: Wait, so, Mark, you and your wife are like the
- 43:55Speaker 4: real-life Ghostbusters.
- 43:57Speaker 3: Oh, she is.
- 43:59Speaker 10: I'm not.
- 43:59Speaker 13: I'm a sceptic like Nat, but I have heard it
- 44:03Speaker 13: or seen them.
- 44:04Speaker 1: What does your wife do when she catches them?
- 44:07Speaker 13: Well, she puts them on a recording. She does EVPs.
- 44:11Speaker 1: Films them and stuff.
- 44:13Speaker 13: Oh, no, we haven't filmed them, but we've actually, she's
- 44:17Speaker 13: spoken to them. So it comes up on a recorder.
- 44:19Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
- 44:20Speaker 2: Should maybe try some video on that.
- 44:22Speaker 4: No, do they actually make noise or does it just
- 44:24Speaker 4: come through with like distorted sounds and stuff?
- 44:29Speaker 13: No, it's not distorted. It's actually, you'd feel like you're
- 44:32Speaker 13: in the room with them.
- 44:34Speaker 10: Oh, wow.
- 44:35Speaker 1: Oh, I've got the heebie-jeebies just listening to Mark.
- 44:37Speaker 2: There you go. Ghost tour for you now.
- 44:39Speaker 1: Your wife must be so brave.
- 44:40Speaker 3: I'll go with Amy.
- 44:41Speaker 1: We can go together.
- 44:42Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go.
- 44:43Speaker 1: I'm terrified. I know they can't hurt me, but I
- 44:47Speaker 1: am terrified.
- 44:48Speaker 2: Well, there we go. We've got our ghost stories. A
- 44:51Speaker 2: lot of people backing up Amy.
- 44:52Speaker 1: Kiss. So have you heard of the clean girl aesthetic?
- 44:58Speaker 8: No.
- 44:58Speaker 2: No, I don't know what that is. Sean, do you
- 45:00Speaker 2: know what the clean.
- 45:01Speaker 1: Girl aesthetic is? Yeah, well, you're both boys, so I'm
- 45:03Speaker 1: not surprised.
- 45:04Speaker 2: What is that?
- 45:05Speaker 1: It's this trend for being perfect but boring.
- 45:09Speaker 4: So you've got perfectly shiny hair, minimalist makeup, plain clothes.
- 45:15Speaker 1: You're a healthy eater. You're waking up early. You're going
- 45:18Speaker 1: to the gym.
- 45:19Speaker 2: I know the type. A lot of Gen Zs would
- 45:21Speaker 2: be a clean girl.
- 45:21Speaker 1: Yeah, you're definitely journaling. You're waking up with the sunrise.
- 45:24Speaker 1: You're drinking matcha as well.
- 45:26Speaker 7: Yep, yep.
- 45:27Speaker 1: I'm calling BS on a lot of it. I think
- 45:29Speaker 1: a lot of people just like to project this.
- 45:31Speaker 4: Image that they are clean girl and then you turn
- 45:35Speaker 4: up to their house and their house is a pigsty.
- 45:38Speaker 4: But it's had a moment for a lot of people,
- 45:42Speaker 4: especially Gen Z. They're really leaning into it, especially when
- 45:45Speaker 4: you've got celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid.
- 45:48Speaker 2: She's a clean girl. Yep, I can picture it.
- 45:50Speaker 1: Kylie Jenner, yeah. However, it's now over.
- 45:55Speaker 4: Well, at least according to these podcasters, Lisa and Sarah,
- 45:59Speaker 4: who have a fantastic podcast.
- 46:01Speaker 2: Do you listen to it?
- 46:03Speaker 22: I do.
- 46:04Speaker 4: I don't, but I know Lisa and Sarah and they're
- 46:07Speaker 4: an absolute hoot.
- 46:08Speaker 1: But have a listen to what they've said on their podcast.
- 46:11Speaker 24: The world has gone to shit and people are realising, well,
- 46:15Speaker 24: we may as well just have fun and return to chaos.
- 46:18Speaker 24: And now the party girl is back. For years we
- 46:21Speaker 24: have optimised ourselves to oblivion, the perfect morning routine, the
- 46:26Speaker 24: slicked back bun, the neutral tones, the minimal make-up, the
- 46:30Speaker 24: green juice, the pendulum.
- 46:32Speaker 1: Has swung.
- 46:33Speaker 20: It's all about fun over function, messy over curated. The
- 46:38Speaker 20: party girl doesn't want to learn, Sarah.
- 46:40Speaker 1: She just wants to have fun.
- 46:43Speaker 4: Do you remember back in our day, like we would
- 46:45Speaker 4: go to a nightclub, I'd post a Facebook album of
- 46:49Speaker 4: like 30 of the same photos where I would just be,
- 46:52Speaker 4: me and my friends would just be getting more and
- 46:53Speaker 4: more drunk. By the end of the album, Everything was blurred.
- 46:57Speaker 4: Someone had their eyes closed.
- 46:58Speaker 1: In most photos.
- 46:59Speaker 2: So it was like that was the Paris Hilton era.
- 47:02Speaker 2: So Paris Hilton's a party girl. Hayley Bieber's a clean girl.
- 47:05Speaker 2: Is that right?
- 47:06Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's kind of, it's not cool anymore to
- 47:10Speaker 4: write yourself off and get drunk and loose and have
- 47:12Speaker 4: a good time.
- 47:13Speaker 2: Yeah, Gen Z's don't do that. They're saying bring it back,
- 47:15Speaker 2: or it is back.
- 47:15Speaker 4: Well, they're saying the pendulum has swung back to it.
- 47:19Speaker 4: I don't think it's gone full party girl. I think
- 47:22Speaker 4: we're trying to find a bit more of a middle ground.
- 47:24Speaker 1: Like the clean girl aesthetic is so boring and more
- 47:28Speaker 1: often than not it's all BS as well.
- 47:30Speaker 2: Right, they're not really doing that. So what are you,
- 47:33Speaker 2: a clean girl or you're a party girl?
- 47:35Speaker 1: I was going to say, what are you?
- 47:37Speaker 2: I have actually.
- 47:38Speaker 1: Never been a clean girl. Even through parenting, I remember–
- 47:43Speaker 1: It's coming into motherhood and there was all these like
- 47:46Speaker 1: aesthetically beautiful photos about like my heart beating on the
- 47:49Speaker 1: outside of my chest. And I was like, what is
- 47:51Speaker 1: everyone talking about? I'm so sleep deprived, covered in spew.
- 47:55Speaker 1: And then my whole house smells like shit because there's
- 47:57Speaker 1: a nappy left around. Like this is not reality. I've
- 48:00Speaker 1: never been a clean girl aesthetic.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Always the party girl. But can I just say.
- 48:04Speaker 1: Let's be honest. I'm more like the relatable, honest girl. Okay.
- 48:07Speaker 2: Because with the party girl, they does get to a
- 48:09Speaker 2: point where I don't think you can be the party girl.
- 48:12Speaker 2: Like you can't. There's a certain age where you can't
- 48:15Speaker 2: be partying all the time. Do you know what I mean?
- 48:16Speaker 1: I will say this. I think your girlfriend, Alana, is
- 48:19Speaker 1: a clean girl.
- 48:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 48:21Speaker 4: Her stuff that she puts out on socials is very polished,
- 48:25Speaker 4: and it's like she likes to project a certain image,
- 48:29Speaker 4: whereas is she like that in real life?
- 48:31Speaker 2: She's not a trash bag, no. I didn't say she was.
- 48:33Speaker 1: A trash bag, but she likes to let her hair
- 48:35Speaker 1: down and have a bit more fun, right?
- 48:37Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 48:37Speaker 2: Well, she's in Bali right now, and she was up
- 48:39Speaker 2: until God knows what hour I've got a video. So
- 48:41Speaker 2: that's a bit late.
- 48:43Speaker 1: You did not say that to her.
- 48:44Speaker 2: Stop being a party girl. I said go back to
- 48:46Speaker 2: the clean girl aesthetic, please. Whatever that is. No, I
- 48:51Speaker 2: think I get it.
- 48:52Speaker 1: You get it, right? I just think a bit more
- 48:55Speaker 1: reality is not a bad thing. Let's stop pretending like
- 49:01Speaker 1: we're all super polished and put together and perfect.
- 49:03Speaker 2: And getting up at 4 a.m. and journaling.
- 49:05Speaker 1: Yeah, like no one's really doing that.
- 49:10Speaker 2: I'm going to say Australia's biggest influencer, Tammy Hembrough, joining us. Hello.
- 49:14Speaker 17: Hello.
- 49:15Speaker 1: Thank you for having me.
- 49:15Speaker 2: Would you say that?
- 49:17Speaker 1: Apparently. That's what people always tell me, so I'm like,
- 49:21Speaker 1: am I?
- 49:21Speaker 2: We've had a few on the show, and some people
- 49:24Speaker 2: don't like the term influencer. Do you say content creator,
- 49:27Speaker 2: or what do you say?
- 49:27Speaker 1: I don't mind influencer.
- 49:29Speaker 14: It all means the same thing to me, and I
- 49:31Speaker 14: don't think there's anything wrong with it.
- 49:33Speaker 2: Yeah, don't reject it, right? Yeah, that's no shame. Some
- 49:35Speaker 2: people are like, don't call me that. No, totally. Now,
- 49:37Speaker 2: Aussie Shore, season three. Were you a fan of the
- 49:42Speaker 2: first two seasons?
- 49:43Speaker 1: You know what?
- 49:44Speaker 14: I hadn't watched all that much of the Australian one,
- 49:47Speaker 14: but once I did.
- 49:49Speaker 1: I was hooked.
- 49:50Speaker 14: And you just, you know, like all the Jersey Shore
- 49:54Speaker 14: and Geordie Shore, it's all iconic. And Australia, I feel
- 49:57Speaker 14: like we even like take it up a notch.
- 49:59Speaker 1: Like it's even better.
- 50:00Speaker 2: Yeah, because Aussies are looser, right?
- 50:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 50:03Speaker 2: And you're the house boss. What the hell does that mean?
- 50:05Speaker 2: What do you do?
- 50:06Speaker 14: So I pretty much go in and boss them around
- 50:08Speaker 14: a little bit. I keep them in line. I give
- 50:10Speaker 14: them jobs to do when they're like deathly hungover. Yeah,
- 50:14Speaker 14: it was good fun.
- 50:15Speaker 2: So you like waking them up early?
- 50:16Speaker 14: Yeah, just showing up at the house when they're all
- 50:18Speaker 14: like get out.
- 50:20Speaker 1: And sending them on jobs. It was good.
- 50:22Speaker 2: And how hard did they go? Why were they partying?
- 50:24Speaker 1: Oh, they went extremely hard.
- 50:27Speaker 14: Like it is actually crazy the things that they were
- 50:30Speaker 14: getting up to.
- 50:31Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
- 50:32Speaker 14: I would walk in there in the morning and ask
- 50:34Speaker 14: about the night before and I just had no words.
- 50:36Speaker 1: Like the... This is like a crazy group of people.
- 50:40Speaker 2: Could you still do that?
- 50:41Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely not.
- 50:42Speaker 2: Are you a partier or not?
- 50:43Speaker 1: No, I definitely had my party days back in the day.
- 50:47Speaker 14: But I feel like if I go out for like
- 50:49Speaker 14: a late dinner, I'm like, I need like a whole
- 50:52Speaker 14: day recovery the next day.
- 50:53Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 50:54Speaker 2: So what's the limit for you these days? When would
- 50:56Speaker 2: you like to be at home in bed?
- 50:58Speaker 1: Oh, you know what? Before midnight is perfect.
- 51:01Speaker 4: Like I like to, you know, enjoy a long late
- 51:04Speaker 4: dinner and, you know, glasses of wine and that kind
- 51:07Speaker 4: of thing. There's no way you could catch me going
- 51:09Speaker 4: to like a nightclub or anything.
- 51:10Speaker 2: No clubbing for Tammy Hambro?
- 51:12Speaker 1: No clubbing. Those days are long gone.
- 51:14Speaker 2: What about your boyfriend? Because he's younger. Does he still
- 51:16Speaker 2: want to go clubbing or not?
- 51:17Speaker 1: No, which is, I feel like I want to be
- 51:20Speaker 1: out later than.
- 51:20Speaker 2: Him, which is crazy. He's a bit of a grandpa.
- 51:23Speaker 1: Yeah, which is good. It's good.
- 51:27Speaker 2: Now, so it's in the Gold Coast. What was it
- 51:29Speaker 2: like for them, the nights out in the Gold Coast?
- 51:32Speaker 2: Are they still wild or are they boring?
- 51:34Speaker 14: Yeah, they're definitely still wild from what I saw from them.
- 51:38Speaker 14: But yeah, Cavalave and Surfers.
- 51:41Speaker 2: It's iconic.
- 51:42Speaker 1: There's no better place to party.
- 51:44Speaker 2: No, and you were saying every time you walked in
- 51:46Speaker 2: the house, there's like a new love triangle or something
- 51:48Speaker 2: going on. Was it hard to keep up?
- 51:50Speaker 1: It was so hard to keep up.
- 51:52Speaker 14: Every time I walked in, I was like, wait, so
- 51:53Speaker 14: now you are into you and you hooked up with
- 51:57Speaker 14: you and you brought home this person, but they stole
- 51:59Speaker 14: that person.
- 51:59Speaker 1: It was insane.
- 52:01Speaker 2: Do you think there's any genuine love that will come
- 52:02Speaker 2: out of it or not?
- 52:04Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, there is genuine connections.
- 52:08Speaker 14: But, you know, I feel like when you're mixing alcohol
- 52:12Speaker 14: and hormones and they're all together in this house, I
- 52:15Speaker 14: feel like it's hard to say if it's like true love.
- 52:18Speaker 2: It's not actually true love. And the last time we
- 52:21Speaker 2: saw you, you looked genuinely happy. You're bloody busy though, right?
- 52:25Speaker 2: Like what do you spend the most of your time doing?
- 52:28Speaker 14: I mean, the most of my time just being a mum,
- 52:30Speaker 14: which is the way that I like it. But, yeah,
- 52:34Speaker 14: day-to-day looks so different for me. I feel like that's
- 52:37Speaker 14: also a part that I like of my work. I
- 52:40Speaker 14: can be my own boss a lot so I get
- 52:43Speaker 14: to sort of make my own schedule. And, yeah, I
- 52:46Speaker 14: just enjoy spending most of my time being a mum though.
- 52:48Speaker 2: What about on social media? You know, there's a lot
- 52:50Speaker 2: of talk about how addictive it is and of course
- 52:53Speaker 2: they bought the banning for under 16s. Are you on
- 52:56Speaker 2: there a lot yourself?
- 52:57Speaker 1: Oh, I love a good like doom skull on TikTok.
- 53:01Speaker 2: Yes. How long would you spend if you sat down?
- 53:03Speaker 2: Can you get lost for like over an hour?
- 53:05Speaker 22: No.
- 53:05Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 53:05Speaker 14: I could easily just like the time gets away from
- 53:08Speaker 14: you and one second I'll be laughing and the next
- 53:10Speaker 14: second I'll be crying and it's just an emotional rollercoaster
- 53:13Speaker 14: of my life.
- 53:14Speaker 1: My For You page is just all over the place.
- 53:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 53:16Speaker 2: Do you try and limit the amount of time you're on?
- 53:18Speaker 1: I definitely do.
- 53:19Speaker 14: I feel like I'm mostly on my phone just to
- 53:22Speaker 14: post my own stuff. And other than that, I do
- 53:25Speaker 14: try to be off it as much as possible. But
- 53:28Speaker 14: it is hard when it's also my job. There's a
- 53:31Speaker 14: fine line between... like working or just, you know, having
- 53:35Speaker 14: a little scroll and then like obviously I'm taking photos
- 53:37Speaker 14: and filming a lot. So, I mean, I am on
- 53:39Speaker 14: my phone quite a bit.
- 53:40Speaker 2: And I've got a trick as well. I log in, post,
- 53:44Speaker 2: and then I log out. If you keep it on
- 53:46Speaker 2: your phone but keep logged out.
- 53:47Speaker 14: It stops you scrolling.
- 53:48Speaker 1: See, I don't even know my password. So, if I
- 53:50Speaker 1: log out, I'm locked out.
- 53:52Speaker 2: I think it might be important that you know your password.
- 53:55Speaker 1: Well, you know what? I got like hacked back in
- 53:57Speaker 1: the day.
- 53:58Speaker 14: So, we made it like really complex to get into
- 54:01Speaker 14: my Instagram.
- 54:02Speaker 1: So now I can't even get in.
- 54:04Speaker 2: Does your manager or someone know your password?
- 54:06Speaker 1: You can't not have.
- 54:07Speaker 2: It out there.
- 54:08Speaker 1: I think my sister might.
- 54:10Speaker 2: She could blackmail you.
- 54:12Speaker 5: Yep.
- 54:12Speaker 2: She could lock you out and blackmail you.
- 54:15Speaker 1: Honestly, she probably will if we get into a fight.
- 54:18Speaker 2: What about your kids on social media? Have you got
- 54:20Speaker 2: a rule there?
- 54:22Speaker 1: Just nothing till they're older.
- 54:24Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 54:25Speaker 1: They keep asking for phones and stuff now. And I'm
- 54:27Speaker 1: just like, no.
- 54:28Speaker 2: No iPads, no phones.
- 54:29Speaker 1: I might get them one of those, the phones that
- 54:32Speaker 1: you can't.
- 54:32Speaker 2: Oh, the dumb phones.
- 54:33Speaker 1: Yeah, dumb phone.
- 54:34Speaker 14: Because some of their friends have those. And I'm like,
- 54:36Speaker 14: I might get them one of those. But that's the limit.
- 54:38Speaker 14: I got Saskia. She has like the Barbie phone.
- 54:40Speaker 1: It's like games.
- 54:42Speaker 2: Oh, and that's it. So you want to keep them
- 54:43Speaker 2: off social media as long as you can. Yeah, definitely. Hey,
- 54:46Speaker 2: and you know, you're like we said, Australia's most well-known influencer.
- 54:50Speaker 2: I mean, you're constantly in the spotlight. Is there a
- 54:53Speaker 2: wild rumor you've ever heard about yourself? What's the most
- 54:55Speaker 2: wild rumor?
- 54:56Speaker 14: There's been so many crazy rumors. There's always pregnancy rumors.
- 55:00Speaker 14: There's always engagement rumors.
- 55:01Speaker 1: There's always... All of those people love to say, oh
- 55:04Speaker 1: my God, you look pregnant. Like all the time.
- 55:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 55:08Speaker 1: I just hate like.
- 55:09Speaker 2: You don't look pregnant.
- 55:10Speaker 8: Apparently.
- 55:11Speaker 1: Apparently I do. I've been getting it a lot recently actually.
- 55:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 55:13Speaker 1: People will be like baby pump. I'm like, excuse me.
- 55:17Speaker 2: How does that make you feel?
- 55:18Speaker 14: I mean, I just feel like people shouldn't comment on
- 55:20Speaker 14: women's bodies in general.
- 55:21Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 55:21Speaker 1: If you don't have anything, like you shouldn't assume things and. Yeah,
- 55:25Speaker 1: it's just.
- 55:26Speaker 2: No. So not pregnant.
- 55:28Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 55:28Speaker 2: Not getting engaged.
- 55:29Speaker 5: No.
- 55:29Speaker 22: No.
- 55:30Speaker 1: Not right now.
- 55:31Speaker 2: Okay. Not yet.
- 55:32Speaker 1: Not yet.
- 55:33Speaker 2: Well, you can check out MTV Aussie Shore. It is
- 55:36Speaker 2: streaming Thursday, October 22 on Paramount +. Tammy Hembrough, thank
- 55:42Speaker 2: you for coming in.
- 55:43Speaker 1: Thank you for having me.
- 55:44Speaker 5: Hello.
- 55:44Speaker 2: Good morning. You are on Kiss Mikey. Amy Gerard. Hey,
- 55:47Speaker 2: remember a while ago we were talking about Singapore. We're
- 55:49Speaker 2: going to pay you to read a book.
- 55:51Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 55:52Speaker 2: And you like a book.
- 55:53Speaker 1: I like a book.
- 55:54Speaker 2: You like to read?
- 55:55Speaker 1: They can pay me to read.
- 55:56Speaker 2: You either read or you don't. I spoke to a
- 55:58Speaker 2: bloke yesterday. He said he hadn't read a book in
- 56:00Speaker 2: over 10 years. Some people just don't read.
- 56:04Speaker 1: Who did we have? There was that celebrity that said
- 56:05Speaker 1: that she's never read a book. Who was it?
- 56:07Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, Nat.
- 56:08Speaker 1: I don't remember.
- 56:08Speaker 2: Who was that? Or they didn't read it anymore?
- 56:11Speaker 1: Alex Earle, the influencer. Oh, that's right. She only maybe read,
- 56:15Speaker 1: what did she say, Cat and Heart or something?
- 56:16Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 56:16Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 56:17Speaker 2: So now Singapore's going to pay you to do another thing.
- 56:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 56:20Speaker 2: Well, they've launched this, like, dating app. So it's like
- 56:23Speaker 2: a government dating app called First Date.
- 56:25Speaker 1: Such an involved government.
- 56:27Speaker 10: Oh, yeah. I know, right?
- 56:27Speaker 2: They are. Well, they want their fertility rates to go up,
- 56:30Speaker 2: and we've got a problem with it in Australia as well,
- 56:33Speaker 2: but they're getting really hands-on. How it'll work is you
- 56:35Speaker 2: match with people. They reckon it's a really good matching
- 56:37Speaker 2: system involving questionnaires and all this stuff. Then if it
- 56:41Speaker 2: works out, they'll give you vouchers. To use on the date.
- 56:46Speaker 2: It's a bit like, remember when we had COVID? Remember COVID?
- 56:49Speaker 2: And when they were trying to open everything up again,
- 56:52Speaker 2: there were vouchers on the app, on the government app.
- 56:54Speaker 3: Yeah, for going out to restaurants and stuff like that.
- 56:57Speaker 2: It's a bit like that. How would you feel going
- 56:59Speaker 2: on a date with a dude and he's paying with
- 57:00Speaker 2: a voucher from the government?
- 57:02Speaker 14: I mean, why not?
- 57:03Speaker 4: I feel like Singapore government is like the helicopter parent.
- 57:06Speaker 10: Oh, yeah.
- 57:06Speaker 4: Like they're heavily across a lot of the things and
- 57:10Speaker 4: they're trying.
- 57:10Speaker 1: To be really helpful.
- 57:12Speaker 4: It does say here that it's a very exclusive dating
- 57:17Speaker 4: app and it's only open to civil servants aged between
- 57:20Speaker 4: 21 and 35. Which makes sense because they're wanting to
- 57:23Speaker 4: get them together and procreating whilst they're young.
- 57:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 57:27Speaker 4: And it also says that supposedly the algorithm is so
- 57:31Speaker 4: good because they are such an intense questionnaire that they
- 57:36Speaker 4: would potentially match you with someone really great.
- 57:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 57:40Speaker 15: I don't hate it.
- 57:41Speaker 1: I actually feel like, I mean, I wasn't on the
- 57:45Speaker 1: apps for very long, but I know people who are
- 57:48Speaker 1: on them and there is just so much crap and
- 57:52Speaker 1: BS that goes on in those apps. Singapore's obviously gone, well,
- 57:55Speaker 1: the government's gone, right, you guys are hopeless. We're taking
- 57:58Speaker 1: things into our own hands.
- 58:00Speaker 2: Well, it's true because the idea of the apps actually, like,
- 58:02Speaker 2: you know, all the dating apps, it's to keep you
- 58:05Speaker 2: on them. That's what I've heard. They're like, well, they
- 58:07Speaker 2: don't actually work if you think about it because if
- 58:09Speaker 2: it all worked, everyone would just drop off.
- 58:11Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very true.
- 58:13Speaker 2: Whereas the government one, they are actually trying to get
- 58:15Speaker 2: you to date. But I don't know about the questionnaires.
- 58:17Speaker 2: I did one where, you know, it was a stunt
- 58:20Speaker 2: for the radio show. They were like, you should try,
- 58:22Speaker 2: what is it, eHarmony or, you know, one of those
- 58:25Speaker 2: ones where you've got to do a questionnaire.
- 58:26Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 58:27Speaker 2: I'd prefer to just go off five photos and looks.
- 58:30Speaker 1: Yeah, but your shallow eyes help. Like, that's all you
- 58:33Speaker 1: care about, looks.
- 58:34Speaker 2: That is not true.
- 58:35Speaker 1: That is so true.
- 58:37Speaker 2: And we're taking your last calls on 131065. Anything at
- 58:40Speaker 2: all you want to talk about? Hello, Sam. Hey, Sam.
- 58:43Speaker 10: How you going, guys? How you doing?
- 58:45Speaker 2: Hello, good. What do you want to talk about?
- 58:47Speaker 10: Um about the FIFO I did it for 12 years.
- 58:50Speaker 2: Oh yeah so we had a girl on earlier Danielle
- 58:53Speaker 2: yep um and her boyfriend wants to go and do
- 58:55Speaker 2: FIFO work and she's like oh.
- 58:58Speaker 4: She was a bit unsure about it she didn't really
- 59:00Speaker 4: want him to do it did have you done it
- 59:02Speaker 4: Sam you did it for 12.
- 59:03Speaker 10: Years yeah I did it for 12 years.
- 59:05Speaker 1: And your partner was okay whilst you were.
- 59:07Speaker 10: Doing it well my partner came and worked with me
- 59:10Speaker 10: for about three years. So the grandchildren turned up because
- 59:13Speaker 10: I'm 67 now.
- 59:14Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 59:14Speaker 10: But yeah, she came and worked there with me. And
- 59:17Speaker 10: there's one big thing you always got to remember when
- 59:19Speaker 10: you do it. It can be your worst enemy or
- 59:21Speaker 10: your best friend.
- 59:22Speaker 11: Okay.
- 59:24Speaker 10: Now, I own four properties only because I worked my
- 59:28Speaker 10: backside off 12 years.
- 59:30Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 59:30Speaker 10: And if they want to get ahead, that's the place
- 59:33Speaker 10: to do it. But they need to do it as
- 59:34Speaker 10: a team. How much are we talking? There's a lot
- 59:35Speaker 10: of couples that do do it.
- 59:37Speaker 2: Like how much would FIFO pay? How much are we talking?
- 59:40Speaker 10: Depends on where you go. Literally, it's around about the
- 59:42Speaker 10: same everywhere. If they both win, they're looking at over
- 59:46Speaker 10: half a million between the both of them.
- 59:48Speaker 2: For one year's work. Not bad.
- 59:50Speaker 10: It is big money. It is big money. Yeah, big,
- 59:52Speaker 10: big money.
- 59:53Speaker 1: Yeah, you really could get ahead, especially that. Well, we
- 59:56Speaker 1: did suggest to Danielle that she could go there as well.
- 59:58Speaker 1: What did your partner do when she was out there
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: with you, Sam?
- 1:00:02Speaker 10: She was actually just a cleaner. Her and I were
- 1:00:04Speaker 10: cleaning at the beginning. I was just a shit, oh,
- 1:00:07Speaker 10: excuse me, what a kicker. But then I worked my
- 1:00:10Speaker 10: way up. I ended up driving a 200-ton dumper.
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
- 1:00:13Speaker 10: Yeah. And then I ended up training, training a lot
- 1:00:16Speaker 10: of the, and believe me or not, the best drivers
- 1:00:20Speaker 10: are the women.
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: Yeah, there are a lot of female drivers. So even
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: the cleaner gets quite good money for working out.
- 1:00:26Speaker 10: Yeah, the cleaners do get good money as well. FIFO
- 1:00:30Speaker 10: has no mercy for birthdays, Christmases or holidays or Easter.
- 1:00:34Speaker 10: So when you're on a roster, see, I did three
- 1:00:38Speaker 10: on and two off. So I was, yeah.
- 1:00:40Speaker 4: Three weeks on and two weeks off. So on those
- 1:00:44Speaker 4: three weeks, Sam, did you work seven days?
- 1:00:47Speaker 22: Yes.
- 1:00:47Speaker 10: Oh, that's hard.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: But then you get two weeks off.
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: And they made good money. I can see the argument
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: for it. Yeah. All right. Emma's called up. Hi, Emma.
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: What do you want to talk about?
- 1:01:00Speaker 19: I would fully support a dating app here, similar to
- 1:01:03Speaker 19: what the Singapore government is running.
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: Yeah, we were chatting about that. They're setting up like
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: a government app, and if you match, you get a voucher.
- 1:01:10Speaker 22: Yeah.
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: I don't know how you feel about that.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: Well, they give you a new match every three days.
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: Okay. Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah, you reckon it's a good idea?
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Don't you reckon that would be.
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: Great, Emma?
- 1:01:19Speaker 13: I do.
- 1:01:20Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 1:01:20Speaker 19: I think, honestly, the dating landscape here has gotten so dire,
- 1:01:24Speaker 19: I've completely given up. Australian men are known for being
- 1:01:28Speaker 19: super low effort.
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: Yes, that's so true.
- 1:01:30Speaker 19: If the government could find me someone that's the perfect match,
- 1:01:33Speaker 19: then why not?
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: The Australian government absolutely needs to step up.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: Yeah, Albo needs to launch his own dating app and
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: find people.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: I don't know if I'd be taking dating advice from Albo.
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: Well, he's been married twice. Isn't it true, though?
- 1:01:48Speaker 12: The government has so much good info about every single person.
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: It's true, yeah.
- 1:01:52Speaker 12: Surely they'd be able to go, that person will match
- 1:01:55Speaker 12: with that person if they met up.
- 1:01:57Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: I really reckon.
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:01:59Speaker 13: All right.
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: Emma says, let's get our own government dating up. And Kelly,
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: you're on.
- 1:02:03Speaker 10: Hello.
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: Hey, Kelly.
- 1:02:04Speaker 12: Hello.
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: Hi.
- 1:02:06Speaker 2: What do you want to talk about, Kelly?
- 1:02:07Speaker 23: Just going back to the guy that was talking about FIFO.
- 1:02:11Speaker 11: Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:02:13Speaker 23: Yeah, okay, so a partner of mine, he basically has
- 1:02:16Speaker 23: been doing it for 20 years and doesn't have a
- 1:02:19Speaker 23: single thing to show for it, and yet he's still
- 1:02:22Speaker 23: getting almost $ 200, 000 a year.
- 1:02:24Speaker 2: What did he do with all the money?
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: What's he doing?
- 1:02:28Speaker 23: This is the thing. He's developed, unfortunately, a lot of
- 1:02:32Speaker 23: debt in the 20 years because he was going to
- 1:02:36Speaker 23: and from Perth to Melbourne moving houses. But they were
- 1:02:41Speaker 23: all rentals. They weren't bought.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: Right. Is he just bad with money?
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: If he was making good money.
- 1:02:49Speaker 23: Well, he's gotten better with it probably in the last
- 1:02:53Speaker 23: six years. But all those years, he could have been
- 1:02:58Speaker 23: sitting pretty on quite a few investments and it was
- 1:03:02Speaker 23: just wasted.
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: Is this why he's an ex of yours, Kelly?
- 1:03:05Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:03:07Speaker 10: No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 1:03:09Speaker 23: He's only recently become an ex, but we are absolutely
- 1:03:11Speaker 23: best friends. He's still the stepfather of my son.
- 1:03:14Speaker 8: He's really, really good with him.
- 1:03:15Speaker 23: Yeah, my son's got autism and stuff, so he's amazing.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: That's really nice.
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: Some people are just bad with money. Yeah, they are.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: No matter how much you earn, and he did 20
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: years of earning good coin, and he just blew it all,
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: but some people just do that. I've got a.
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: Girlfriend who spends, she gets paid monthly, and every single
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: month she blows every single cent of her salary.
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: Yeah, all gone.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: Yeah, and she just rents. So she pays her rent
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: and she pays her car bills and whatever.
- 1:03:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: And then whatever leftover money she has, she just spends
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: it all.
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: Instead of saving a bit.
- 1:03:43Speaker 4: And she's just got no saving mentality. And it's just,
- 1:03:45Speaker 4: she's been like that my whole life.
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: Yeah, and it doesn't matter how much you earn. Because
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: they say the more you earn, your life just goes up.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: If she earned more money, she would spend more money.
- 1:03:53Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: That's all that would happen, yeah.
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: All right, on the show tomorrow, I know you love
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: that sex education.
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: Yes, it was a great show.
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: Yeah, Asa Butterfield-Starra, that's going to join us. A brand
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: new I Want You Back. One of our listeners, Says
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: he picked the wrong girl.
- 1:04:07Speaker 4: Can't believe he had two to pick from in the
- 1:04:11Speaker 4: first place.
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: I will give you the chance to drive away with
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: a brand new car. The pop quiz where you can
