- 1:54Speaker 1: she's she's bedridden.
- 1:55Speaker 3: No, I only have one. I only have one grandparent,
- 1:59Speaker 3: and she is not bedridden. She's far from it.
- 2:01Speaker 2: But she, for my whole life, has never hung up
- 2:06Speaker 2: the phone on me, or actually once and we were like,
- 2:09Speaker 2: she must be sick.
- 2:10Speaker 1: There must be like back in the day when phone's invented,

- 2:33Speaker 3: I'll let you go, Let you go, let you go, okay.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Bye bye, one two three bye.
- 2:39Speaker 3: To the point where I have to hang up on

- 2:42Speaker 1: That's saying a lot from someone who never hangs out.
- 2:44Speaker 3: I know she'll be like all right, but I don't
- 2:47Speaker 3: hung up anyway, So that's right, I get it. At
- 2:51Speaker 3: least give her the one, two three. Ah.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Yes, I think we should probably have a cheeky little drop.
- 2:59Speaker 1: We should, if we may, just something that I've had
- 3:02Speaker 1: sitting there in the fridge. Spicy cheers, my friend.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Thank you, Matt.

- 3:21Speaker 1: we had another special drop from Stone and Wood, called
- 3:25Speaker 1: the Wood Fired Porter. This year's Stone beer boasts aromatic
- 3:29Speaker 1: notes of brood coffee, rich dark chocolate, hints of subtly
- 3:33Speaker 1: smoked barley.
- 3:34Speaker 2: With a paw that mirrors the depths of night itself.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Each sip is velvety smooth, balanced by its steady fast bitterness.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Enjoy this one with a mate by the fire, like
- 3:43Speaker 2: we were on Sunurday night.
- 3:48Speaker 1: The launch of this beer was at Festival of the
- 3:50Speaker 1: Stone Barron Bay on the weekend just gone, where they
- 3:53Speaker 1: tapped the first cake and shared it with some locals.
- 3:57Speaker 1: The blowings the blowing like the blowings like me and
- 4:00Speaker 1: and the broader community and ash. It was an event
- 4:04Speaker 1: that we were excited about for many many weeks.
- 4:07Speaker 3: Ash. I think the last festival that.
- 4:08Speaker 1: I went to was about eight years ago, same and
- 4:14Speaker 1: it was sick.
- 4:15Speaker 3: It was awesome.
- 4:16Speaker 1: We saw some great acts, some of whom happened to
- 4:18Speaker 1: be your family members.
- 4:19Speaker 3: I did have some family playing there, your mum and
- 4:22Speaker 3: dad of a tambourine.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Not this year, maybe next year if they get the
- 4:28Speaker 2: call up. Yes, it was great, It was good fun.
- 4:31Speaker 2: They do it every year, Matt. I just so happened
- 4:34Speaker 2: to form the first day of winter, hence the tapping
- 4:37Speaker 2: of the egg. Two of my cousins happened to play
- 4:39Speaker 2: in the beefs who played that were amazing. Two of
- 4:42Speaker 2: them the drummer and the guitars, both my cousin's talented
- 4:46Speaker 2: family and they are.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Also one of them is also dating ruby Field's fun
- 4:50Speaker 3: fact whirl wind of a trip for me.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Laura was a static is probably the right word.
- 4:57Speaker 3: She saw your face.
- 4:58Speaker 4: I was.
- 5:00Speaker 1: I was in Byron for my brother's fortieth First of
- 5:02Speaker 1: the Stone was that weekend. We were staying at a
- 5:05Speaker 1: hotel which also happened to be the hotel that you
- 5:08Speaker 1: were staying at.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Yeah, so Stonewood had me up there for the event,
- 5:11Speaker 2: which is great and also put me up in this
- 5:13Speaker 2: same hotel.
- 5:14Speaker 3: Coincidentally, I didn't request that.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Just so happened, be honest, be honest, I put my
- 5:22Speaker 2: foot down and I said I must stay in the
- 5:25Speaker 2: unit directly next to them.
- 5:27Speaker 3: That it wasn't like that. I did forget. I thought
- 5:30Speaker 3: it was hilarious. I forgot to tell Laura.
- 5:33Speaker 1: It was one of those things that I was like,
- 5:34Speaker 1: I'll tell her in a second, And then before I
- 5:36Speaker 1: knew it, there was a voice that was bellowing out
- 5:39Speaker 1: from the reception area as a pull side and look
- 5:42Speaker 1: who it is, Lo and behold it's Ashwick.
- 5:45Speaker 2: And your mum was so happy. She was weirdly happy,
- 5:50Speaker 2: weirdly happy. I haven't seen her since the cruise where
- 5:52Speaker 2: we had a brilliant time and what happened between we
- 5:57Speaker 2: just vibant. We're always vibing. That's like my key demographic
- 6:01Speaker 2: to a woman, is.
- 6:02Speaker 1: There certain there's a line, all right when someone is
- 6:05Speaker 1: enjoying the company of a loved one and then it
- 6:08Speaker 1: starts to cross over.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Am I the loved one?
- 6:12Speaker 1: I just feel like I wouldn't be surprised in two
- 6:16Speaker 1: months down the track if I start calling you.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Dad, Yeah, well you might as well start now, are
- 6:19Speaker 2: you having sex with my mom?
- 6:20Speaker 3: No? Okay, I am not. April. Is that directed at
- 6:26Speaker 3: my mom? No, definitely not. But she was very happy
- 6:29Speaker 3: to Laula and Marley also happy to see you and
- 6:31Speaker 3: your sister all the females in your life. Really yeah,
- 6:35Speaker 3: and Bill.
- 6:36Speaker 1: Do you know what happened though? Actually we were having
- 6:39Speaker 1: a beautiful moment for my brother for his fortieth We
- 6:42Speaker 1: went running a circle.
- 6:43Speaker 3: Sounds like we're in a cult, you are, And we were.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Saying a nice memory for my brother and we were
- 6:48Speaker 1: like three siblings in you stormed.
- 6:52Speaker 3: I was a reception, and I saw you kind of.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Like just waiting a subtle like just one second, you know,
- 6:57Speaker 1: when you're like having a deeper, meaningful conversation, someone comes
- 7:01Speaker 1: in and you're.
- 7:01Speaker 3: Like, I thought it was a what's up? Brother?
- 7:04Speaker 2: I just came bursting through the door with all this
- 7:07Speaker 2: renewed Johnson energy for you.
- 7:09Speaker 3: The place went wild. That's how I remember it.
- 7:15Speaker 1: But it was a great weekend, not only for my
- 7:17Speaker 1: brother who celebrated his fortieth birthday. Also, will just say
- 7:20Speaker 1: that Adam Johnson is single on my Instagram. I encourage
- 7:25Speaker 1: her any other single females out there to go check
- 7:28Speaker 1: them out, and also check out my two younger brothers.
- 7:30Speaker 3: As well, who are also single.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Them to try and get linked up with one of
- 7:35Speaker 1: my followers unsuccessfully for a long time now.
- 7:38Speaker 3: Just solicting your brothers out.
- 7:40Speaker 1: So just if you are interested, three brothers to pick from.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Is a twenty eight year old, thirty one year old
- 7:46Speaker 1: or a forty year old tea.
- 7:46Speaker 3: You've really got so many options. Take all three if
- 7:49Speaker 3: you will. I've all got different hobbies.
- 7:52Speaker 1: But it was a good weekend because I think the
- 7:55Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, Laura has been extremely busy, as
- 7:58Speaker 1: she always is, and we're very much in the routine
- 8:01Speaker 1: of just we wake up, Laura's out the door really early,
- 8:06Speaker 1: straight into the grind of getting kids ready, getting them
- 8:09Speaker 1: to daycare. You come home, you're tired from work, straight
- 8:12Speaker 1: into the bedtime routine.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Yeah, which and then by that time you're like, oh fuck, you.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Gotta cook dinner, You got to clean dinner, the laundry,
- 8:21Speaker 1: back in bed, and you do it all again weekend weekends,
- 8:26Speaker 1: and then kind of realize that there've been a little
- 8:28Speaker 1: period of time ash where Laura and I just went
- 8:31Speaker 1: dedicating decent amount of time.
- 8:33Speaker 3: To each other you're talking about sex.
- 8:36Speaker 1: I was trying to be subtle, but also I will
- 8:40Speaker 1: caveat it and say that it may be sometimes like
- 8:42Speaker 1: two days before we've been together, and in my mind, I'm.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Like, it's been months. I'm starving over this long, hard slug.
- 8:50Speaker 3: It's a drought. They say.
- 8:53Speaker 1: I need something, some form of adventure, and it just
- 8:59Speaker 1: so happened that the timing was right.
- 9:03Speaker 3: Holidays is always a good one. Gets everyone. Juice is flying.
- 9:07Speaker 3: I was trying to keep this PG mate. Juice is flowing.
- 9:11Speaker 3: Laura was squirting. Oh my god, I'm joking. I'm joking.
- 9:17Speaker 3: She's not a squirter. Yeah I am. I'm sorry.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Sorry to all the parents out there who came for
- 9:24Speaker 1: the discussion about kids and have ended up in this.
- 9:27Speaker 3: Like cesspit of a conversation.
- 9:28Speaker 1: So I don't want to turn my own horn here ash,
- 9:32Speaker 1: but I will reveal great news.
- 9:35Speaker 3: Is sorry, Sorry, sorry?
- 9:41Speaker 1: Can I just say what?

- 9:57Speaker 1: No, one has not we've got five minute windows, and
- 10:00Speaker 1: you know, if we're going down that route, take one.

- 13:13Speaker 3: Oh yeah, does he? Yeah? He can see the pressure,
- 13:16Speaker 3: you can feel it.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Yeah, He's like, there's so much tension in the household
- 13:18Speaker 1: right now.
- 13:19Speaker 3: I think I may have fucked up.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Oh god, but wait, the good thing is we have
- 13:25Speaker 1: time two weeks away.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Just keeping in mind as well that April doesn't know
- 13:31Speaker 2: that I fucked this up. So she's listening right now.
- 13:34Speaker 2: She's finding out for the she's finding out for the
- 13:36Speaker 2: first time, and I'm hiding.
- 13:37Speaker 3: Okay, okay, so spit it out. What do you got? Okay?
- 13:40Speaker 2: So Manly Sea Eagles themed. So April Special ordered some stickers,
- 13:45Speaker 2: little Manly Sea Eagle stickers to go onto the lollig bags.
- 13:50Speaker 3: What's the problem. This sounds great.
- 13:52Speaker 2: So she's ordered the stickers that take eight to ten
- 13:54Speaker 2: days to be delivered.
- 13:56Speaker 3: I think I accidentally threw them out. How did you
- 13:59Speaker 3: do that? And she keeps checking the tracking because they
- 14:02Speaker 3: haven't updated the tracking, and surely did say it's been delivered.
- 14:06Speaker 2: No, there was something obscure looking in the letterbox, and
- 14:10Speaker 2: I thought it was junk mail.
- 14:11Speaker 3: It's abom.
- 14:13Speaker 2: I thought it was junk mail because I didn't know
- 14:15Speaker 2: that she was waiting on the stickers. So I've just
- 14:17Speaker 2: got the whole pile of shit and thrown it in
- 14:20Speaker 2: the recycling. Two days later, it was like, hey, can
- 14:23Speaker 2: you run out and check the letterbox. I think the
- 14:25Speaker 2: stickers have been delivered because it's been ten business days.
- 14:29Speaker 2: They said, ten business days, it'll be here, and I went.
- 14:35Speaker 3: So, what's your course of action? Now?
- 14:36Speaker 2: I went to the letterbox just so I didn't look guilty,
- 14:41Speaker 2: just to check.
- 14:42Speaker 3: Like a fake walk to the letter box. Yeah, I
- 14:44Speaker 3: just went for a walk to me. Let me just
- 14:47Speaker 3: check the sat the garage I was. I was like soquiet,
- 14:51Speaker 3: like you sure sure?
- 14:53Speaker 2: She's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, the tracking has an updated
- 14:55Speaker 2: but it's but it's yeah.
- 14:57Speaker 3: And I was like okay, yeah, So.
- 14:59Speaker 1: I love how committed you are to just not revealing
- 15:02Speaker 1: that you've done something wrong where you just like.
- 15:03Speaker 3: It was the day. It was the day.
- 15:05Speaker 2: But she asked me to check the day I was
- 15:07Speaker 2: leaving to go to Byron to meet you, and I
- 15:10Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I quickly run out of check. So
- 15:12Speaker 2: just Saturday, ran out, checked, came back.
- 15:15Speaker 3: I was actually opened the letter box. Yeah, you played
- 15:19Speaker 3: the part. It's not that bad. Yeah. And then she
- 15:23Speaker 3: was like, oh okay, I'm like, look, we've probably come
- 15:25Speaker 3: on down Tuesday.
- 15:26Speaker 2: So I've been like just trying to fix the problem.
- 15:30Speaker 2: I haven't fixed it yet and she doesn't know. So
- 15:33Speaker 2: by the time she hears this, I will hopefully have
- 15:38Speaker 2: having a solution.
- 15:39Speaker 1: What is the solution here? I mean, because you can't
- 15:42Speaker 1: or you could reorder you have time.
- 15:44Speaker 3: No, I don't. It's business days. No need to yel
- 15:47Speaker 3: there's business days.
- 15:48Speaker 1: You're raising your voice, and I appreciate your stress right now,
- 15:52Speaker 1: but there's no need to direct it at me.
- 15:53Speaker 3: That's okay, that's okay.
- 15:55Speaker 1: You've got yourself in this situation.
- 15:57Speaker 3: I'm trying get out of it. You've only got yourself
- 15:59Speaker 3: to blame. I do.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Can I help you in any way? Can I offer
- 16:02Speaker 1: my assistance? No, you've got your job, which just don't
- 16:04Speaker 1: let me down. Okay, just an update on that, by
- 16:07Speaker 1: the way. Okay, I did message manly you on Instagram

- 16:16Speaker 1: to get. I'm going to try as hard as I can,
- 16:19Speaker 1: but I just don't want to promise it. I just
- 16:21Speaker 1: don't tell Oscar.
- 16:22Speaker 3: Already too late. It's fun, I've told you. Okay.
- 16:26Speaker 1: If I can't get the actual mascot, I'll just get
- 16:28Speaker 1: like an eagle, Okay, like maybe like a fake eagle.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Yeah, actually I'll get a balled eagle, a real balld
- 16:36Speaker 3: eagle that might be dangerous around a bunch of kids. No,
- 16:40Speaker 3: that's what they want. I've told me that's what they want.
- 16:43Speaker 2: So if you you when you have an update, yeah,
- 16:47Speaker 2: and I'll let you know once i've fixed this problem.
- 16:48Speaker 2: But April, if you are listening, I'm sorry. I am
- 16:51Speaker 2: too much of a coward to admit this to you.
- 16:54Speaker 1: And April, if you're also listening, I will not bring
- 16:56Speaker 1: a live balled eagle to the party.
- 16:58Speaker 3: I promise you that. But there will be an eagle
- 17:00Speaker 3: or some description. Yes, let's hope, so there won't be
- 17:03Speaker 3: any eagle stickers.
- 17:05Speaker 1: Can I just say, can I just say just so
- 17:08Speaker 1: you know, just you know, I had a job come
- 17:11Speaker 1: through for that weekend for Oscar's party, and I turned
- 17:15Speaker 1: it down.

- 17:31Speaker 2: Oh so what you're saying is you're going to somehow
- 17:35Speaker 2: make this about you.
- 17:37Speaker 3: That's what I'm here.
- 17:38Speaker 1: All I want you to know is that it means
- 17:41Speaker 1: a lot to me, and it means a lot to
- 17:42Speaker 1: Oscar and come hell of high water. I will be
- 17:46Speaker 1: there in attendance with your whole family.

- 17:48Speaker 1: Maybe I'll bring Ellie along my mum.

- 17:59Speaker 3: April would joking.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Ill, I'm going to put that in there, just in case,
- 18:04Speaker 2: just in case, I'm not joking.
- 18:06Speaker 1: It's a beautiful seventy three year old woman.
- 18:08Speaker 3: I definitely threw those sticks out and I'm sorry. Also,
- 18:12Speaker 3: just with the Facebook, Matt, the Facebook, the Facebook group,
- 18:16Speaker 3: I do appreciate all of the suggestions for the lollibags.
- 18:19Speaker 1: There's a lot of people in the now we ballooned
- 18:22Speaker 1: from like one hundred and fifty members to now I
- 18:24Speaker 1: think three fifty.
- 18:26Speaker 3: Were nearly four hundred. Oh shit, we've gone viral. We've
- 18:30Speaker 3: gone viral.
- 18:30Speaker 1: We had some great suggestions for the Yeah, Plato always
- 18:34Speaker 1: goes down.
- 18:35Speaker 2: Well, April, I said, did you get the Plato? And
- 18:37Speaker 2: she said no, no, no. I went with slime. No, no, fuck,
- 18:45Speaker 2: I'm giving you double slime is a nightmare.
- 18:48Speaker 3: Yeah, slime. That wanted to know, dude, I'm just saying
- 18:52Speaker 3: it's not to me. I've got my handful with his
- 18:55Speaker 3: sticker stuff.
- 18:56Speaker 1: No name one situation where slime with kid under the
- 19:01Speaker 1: age of ten has gone, well.
- 19:02Speaker 3: I don't have one. I don't have one. There you
- 19:04Speaker 3: go and I look you're looking at.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Like my jurisdiction, it's a countdown of at least maximum
- 19:10Speaker 1: five minutes before it gets in their eye, in their hair,
- 19:14Speaker 1: on the furniture, on a pet it's hey, I'm sorry,
- 19:18Speaker 1: I apologize out of my jurisdiction.
- 19:20Speaker 3: I don't want to tell you my hands full with
- 19:22Speaker 3: the sticker situation. You guys are two adults.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Can't monitor every purchase, okay, just this party.
- 19:28Speaker 1: My only advice for the party bags other than the slime,
- 19:31Speaker 1: is just making sure there's no choking hazards.
- 19:33Speaker 3: Oh, the gues's gonna be full of draging hazards. That's
- 19:35Speaker 3: just what lollibags are.
- 19:36Speaker 1: And open it up and there'll be no stickers, serrated knives, blades,
- 19:41Speaker 1: slime syringers, and then I'll.
- 19:43Speaker 3: Get you and you go about.
- 19:45Speaker 1: They ask going love, But we appreciate the suggestion we
- 19:48Speaker 1: do in the face game, coming through, come through. We've
- 19:51Speaker 1: got time, ash, I made a mistake, you a mistake. No,
- 19:55Speaker 1: I know, it doesn't happen often, it doesn't happen often.
- 19:59Speaker 1: The way that the response ability between me and Laura
- 20:01Speaker 1: is split up with the kids is that I do everything.
- 20:06Speaker 3: Kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
- 20:09Speaker 1: Laura is very good. Laura is very good, she owns
- 20:12Speaker 1: the money. I look after the kids. Sounds good, But
- 20:16Speaker 1: when it comes to anything daycare related, because I normally
- 20:20Speaker 1: do the drop offs and the pickups, I'm the one
- 20:22Speaker 1: that's aware of when there's you know, certain things happening,
- 20:26Speaker 1: for example, like a morning tea, like Halloween dress up.
- 20:29Speaker 1: We had pajama Day the other day. I'm the one
- 20:32Speaker 1: that has to be aware of those type of calendar events.
- 20:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I am familiar with the calendar events.
- 20:38Speaker 1: And I missed a very important date. So the date
- 20:42Speaker 1: that I missed ash was one that we were informed about.
- 20:46Speaker 1: I want to say, like at least two weeks in advance.
- 20:48Speaker 1: There's a massive notice board at the entrance to the
- 20:51Speaker 1: daycare that says like, don't forget next week. On Tuesday,
- 20:56Speaker 1: it's daycare photo day. Oh fuck, And and for us
- 21:01Speaker 1: it's a very important day. They have a great photographer
- 21:04Speaker 1: come in and it's a chance that we get for
- 21:07Speaker 1: the girl to have a photo together that's a beautiful keepsake.
- 21:10Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not like a shit photo on the weekend
- 21:13Speaker 2: where they're like trying to outdo each other.
- 21:15Speaker 1: I don't know how this particular photographer does it, but
- 21:17Speaker 1: she gets great shots. Last year's photos, chef's kisses.
- 21:21Speaker 3: Candid Yeah, yeah, I hate, I hate.
- 21:25Speaker 2: I hate the daycare photos because they're so posed, Like
- 21:29Speaker 2: especially with Oscar, they put him in some pose like
- 21:32Speaker 2: his hands in his pocket but his thumb's out.
- 21:34Speaker 3: He looks like, what's wrong with that?
- 21:36Speaker 2: He looks at the dad from Full House Little Daddy
- 21:38Speaker 2: Tanner action. He looks great, short jeans. Yeah, what's what's
- 21:42Speaker 2: wrong with the hand in the pocket.
- 21:44Speaker 3: It just looks just looks too posy.
- 21:46Speaker 1: I mean, if he's doing like the eyebrow rub, or
- 21:49Speaker 1: if he's doing like fixing up the button of his
- 21:51Speaker 1: sleeve on a.
- 21:52Speaker 3: Tea French calf, Yeah, did I get it?
- 21:56Speaker 1: And he's doing like legs crossed too much, too much.
- 21:58Speaker 1: But if he's doing a hand in the lean, like
- 22:02Speaker 1: it's going to be one of his head shots for
- 22:04Speaker 1: those wondering ashes, pretending like he's leaning on a wall
- 22:07Speaker 1: looking over the shoulder with a raised eyebrow, which.
- 22:09Speaker 3: I think is a beautiful part.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Okay, but they look it's a good mix summer candid summer.
- 22:16Speaker 3: But that's fine.
- 22:17Speaker 1: When I get the girls ready in the morning, Ash,
- 22:19Speaker 1: I normally just take the path of least resistance, which
- 22:21Speaker 1: means I let the girls pick what they want to wear. Yeah,
- 22:24Speaker 1: like what whether it's mismatched socks, okay, whether it's a
- 22:29Speaker 1: T shirt that was when there were two and it's
- 22:31Speaker 1: like and they're like, that's what I want to wear.
- 22:33Speaker 3: I'm like, that's what that's what you want. That's what
- 22:35Speaker 3: you get. I don't care as we can get out
- 22:37Speaker 3: the house climate appropriate.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Well, even if it's not, I'm like, they'll find out
- 22:43Speaker 1: the hard way. I'll put it jumper in the bag.
- 22:45Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think that morning Lola was wearing an
- 22:49Speaker 1: old Christmas T shirt.
- 22:52Speaker 3: Was it was it like a came up.
- 22:55Speaker 1: There was a Mickey Mouse one, but it was too small,
- 22:58Speaker 1: been in the dryway too many times, so her little
- 23:01Speaker 1: belly was sticking out. Marley was wearing like those Cama leggings.
- 23:06Speaker 1: They lose their elasticity so they kind of full down
- 23:08Speaker 1: her ass and they're also like halfway up per calf.
- 23:10Speaker 1: They're so short now as well, And I was like, whatever,
- 23:14Speaker 1: it's fine, they're wearing something. But also they hate me
- 23:18Speaker 1: doing their hair.
- 23:19Speaker 3: Oh yeah, So I'm like, sweet.
- 23:22Speaker 1: If you want to go out looking like that, it's
- 23:24Speaker 1: on you.
- 23:25Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't bother you, doesn't bother me. So I
- 23:26Speaker 3: got the daycare.
- 23:27Speaker 1: I was like, I'm at the finish line. I can
- 23:29Speaker 1: drop them off. I can get a moment of freedom.
- 23:31Speaker 1: And I looked at the fucking sign at the entrance
- 23:34Speaker 1: to daycare and I was like.
- 23:35Speaker 3: Today's the day we're having photos. Fucking what'd you do?
- 23:41Speaker 3: What are your options?
- 23:42Speaker 1: Though I knew that Laura would kill me if I
- 23:45Speaker 1: didn't do something about the situation.
- 23:47Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'd be like too bad. I turned around
- 23:52Speaker 3: and I got a new outfit. You did you leave?
- 23:56Speaker 3: How did that work? You drive all the way home?
- 23:58Speaker 1: I kicked the girls out of the car, dropped them
- 24:02Speaker 1: off a daycare, went back to get the routfits, and
- 24:05Speaker 1: I got them their beautiful party dresses that they're only
- 24:08Speaker 1: allowed to wear at birthday parties. They can't wear a
- 24:09Speaker 1: daycare because they get them way too messy with paint.
- 24:13Speaker 1: And so that was a treat in itself. I got
- 24:14Speaker 1: them the sparkly jackets that they always want to wear,
- 24:16Speaker 1: but I don't allow them to wear.
- 24:17Speaker 3: Because they get it too dirty. That's one with a
- 24:19Speaker 3: sequence the secret. Yes, you know it. You know it.
- 24:21Speaker 1: You're a big fan. And we've got some beautiful photos.
- 24:25Speaker 3: Oh that's great, I'm happy. What about the hair? Ah,
- 24:29Speaker 3: who did the hair? They do the hair there? How
- 24:31Speaker 3: do they know how to do the hair?
- 24:32Speaker 1: So because there's a girl called Savannah who was just
- 24:35Speaker 1: like the queen of doing the hair.
- 24:38Speaker 3: Ah, I suck. I don't know what she does.
- 24:41Speaker 1: But they come back home with like beautiful French braids
- 24:45Speaker 1: and Savannah's like, that's fifty dollars.
- 24:46Speaker 3: How did you get them to sit there that long?
- 24:48Speaker 3: Like to do that?
- 24:49Speaker 1: Don't ask me, bro as Savannah, we.
- 24:51Speaker 3: Need to get her in for a lesson. That'd be'd
- 24:54Speaker 3: be something I'll be willing to do.
- 24:55Speaker 1: But the photos were great, photos were great.
- 24:57Speaker 3: I'm glad.
- 24:58Speaker 2: I'm so happy speaking of a pickups mat and drop offs,
- 25:01Speaker 2: because you know that in my house there's an array
- 25:05Speaker 2: of people to do, an array of jobs.
- 25:07Speaker 3: One is the pick army behind.
- 25:09Speaker 2: You say it takes a village, it definitely does. I'm
- 25:13Speaker 2: the village idiot. Sorry, let me redo that. How did
- 25:23Speaker 2: I get there? How did I get there?
- 25:25Speaker 3: Well? We did? Do you want to try it again?
- 25:30Speaker 3: You can do it.
- 25:31Speaker 2: I can't believe I fumbled up the idiot. They say
- 25:34Speaker 2: it takes They say it takes.
- 25:37Speaker 3: A village Matt, and I just happen to be the
- 25:38Speaker 3: village idiot and insert laugh. Okay, so how dare you
- 25:45Speaker 3: so we do? I didn't even rehearse that. It just
- 25:51Speaker 3: came to me. Then do we just juggle? Who does
- 25:54Speaker 3: the pickups?
- 25:54Speaker 2: Really the drop offs is just April and I unless
- 25:57Speaker 2: we both have a work commitment. And then Popper comes
- 25:59Speaker 2: in day of the day. Who's paper is April's dad?
- 26:03Speaker 3: Frank?
- 26:03Speaker 2: Poppa shout out to Frank. He won't be listening because
- 26:06Speaker 2: I doubt that he wants to hear his son in
- 26:07Speaker 2: law yap on. I'm the APPA of the family, believe
- 26:10Speaker 2: it or not.
- 26:12Speaker 3: And so we do it.
- 26:13Speaker 2: We take turns in specific days. My wife's a very
- 26:16Speaker 2: scheduled person. She hates it when things go out the window.
- 26:19Speaker 2: So I do the pick up on Monday because April
- 26:22Speaker 2: is home with Macy. It's a Macy April day, and
- 26:25Speaker 2: I pick up Oscar from pre school around three thirty
- 26:27Speaker 2: four o'clock.
- 26:28Speaker 3: Depending how busy I am today, he's gonna have to wait.
- 26:32Speaker 3: I'll be honest.
- 26:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I really appreciate you giving your entire weekly schedule.
- 26:40Speaker 2: I'll make it any fast, but Tuesday and Wednesday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
- 26:44Speaker 2: Papa pick picks them up and keeps them to five o'clock,
- 26:47Speaker 2: Thank heavens, which is amazing.
- 26:49Speaker 3: Love that because both April and I work Tuesday. But
- 26:55Speaker 3: then I pick him up again on Thursday.
- 26:58Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's part of the story, but every time
- 27:03Speaker 2: I can you let me get through it. Every time
- 27:06Speaker 2: I pick an Oscar up on a Thursday, I can't
- 27:12Speaker 2: work under these conditions. Continue continue what day about Thursday, Thursday,
- 27:18Speaker 2: We're at Thursday and then Friday night, Thursday, I pick
- 27:23Speaker 2: Oscar up and he's very disappointed all the time, and
- 27:26Speaker 2: he's sad disappointed, and I'm picking him up.
- 27:29Speaker 3: And not Popper because he obviously loves Popper so much,
- 27:32Speaker 3: or as I thought, Pop has been doing something that
- 27:35Speaker 3: you've told him not to do it, I'm not to
- 27:36Speaker 3: do it.
- 27:36Speaker 2: And it's such a grandparent thing. And you'll pick up
- 27:38Speaker 2: on this and the parents at home who are listening
- 27:40Speaker 2: will also pick up on this that grandparents do this.
- 27:43Speaker 2: He gives him a special treat every time he picks
- 27:46Speaker 2: him up, and I can't compete with that. Okay, I've
- 27:51Speaker 2: tried to compete with it, like by saying, oh, I've
- 27:55Speaker 2: got something in the car, but it's never good enough.
- 27:57Speaker 2: I don't know what he's given him. He's been told
- 27:59Speaker 2: not to do it, but he's sneakily doing it.
- 28:01Speaker 3: Did you tell him or did April? April? Not me?
- 28:05Speaker 3: I was wow.
- 28:05Speaker 1: So I imagine you like sitting down Pop and being.
- 28:08Speaker 3: Like, mate, me to talk.
- 28:09Speaker 2: Yeah, listen to mate, I'm going to rain you in.
- 28:11Speaker 2: It's not me that's doing it. But April's told him
- 28:15Speaker 2: once and April's like, look, did he hate it? He
- 28:18Speaker 2: must have, because he now he does it behind our backs.
- 28:24Speaker 2: And it's like April's like, I'm not.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Going to say anything else because he's honestly doing as
- 28:28Speaker 3: a massive favor.
- 28:30Speaker 1: So now, because that is the tricky thing, isn't it,
- 28:33Speaker 1: Because on the one hand, you very much appreciate what
- 28:36Speaker 1: he's doing, but at the same time, you're like.
- 28:39Speaker 2: Now he expects a special treat every time I'm setting
- 28:42Speaker 2: the kid up to fail.
- 28:43Speaker 3: No resilience in that child. No, and what do I
- 28:46Speaker 3: do do?
- 28:46Speaker 2: I just join the duck side and say to Popa, hey,
- 28:50Speaker 2: what do you give him? So I know to take
- 28:52Speaker 2: that with me to when I pick you up. I've
- 28:55Speaker 2: tried all sorts of things. I've been like, what about this,
- 28:57Speaker 2: You come get the car and we'll go to.
- 28:59Speaker 3: The park, because it's the proper oscar will take you
- 29:04Speaker 3: for a walk or a shuffle.
- 29:07Speaker 2: And I've been like, well what about I've got Sometimes
- 29:10Speaker 2: I take Macy with me to like soften the blow deal.
- 29:14Speaker 2: Macy's like, what the It's not even my day to
- 29:17Speaker 2: be here, And then it's just nothing's working, so I
- 29:21Speaker 2: just have to I think I'm just going to have
- 29:23Speaker 2: to take the disappoint And I even tried to explain
- 29:26Speaker 2: to him that it's not a special treat if you
- 29:28Speaker 2: get it every day, so that's why it's special.
- 29:30Speaker 3: When Poper picture up and he stills just like yeah,
- 29:32Speaker 3: but I want one, but I want.
- 29:34Speaker 1: It, it sounds like he needs someone else external to
- 29:37Speaker 1: the family to have a word with Poppa.
- 29:41Speaker 3: I thought you kidnap him.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Okay, if you want to give me his address, I
- 29:45Speaker 1: will all phone number.
- 29:46Speaker 3: I will you can have it. I can have a
- 29:48Speaker 3: quick aspect to stern call from Maddie J.
- 29:51Speaker 1: I understand how frustrating it is because Laura had a
- 29:53Speaker 1: period where she was away for work quite a lot.
- 29:56Speaker 1: It's when she was doing the live shows. Oh yeah,
- 29:59Speaker 1: and every time should come back, there's one of the
- 30:02Speaker 1: news agencies at the airport that sell these little soft
- 30:05Speaker 1: toys and the kids absolutely love it. They go mad
- 30:08Speaker 1: for it, and she'd come home and she'd give them
- 30:11Speaker 1: the toy, and the kids kind of got into the
- 30:12Speaker 1: routine of.
- 30:13Speaker 3: The expect it when when you come home, they're like,
- 30:15Speaker 3: where is it? Yeah?
- 30:19Speaker 1: Literally yeah, literally, like zero affection. And then when you say, oh,
- 30:23Speaker 1: there's no there is there is no toy, there's nothing here,
- 30:25Speaker 1: they just flip out like.
- 30:28Speaker 3: You're dead to me. Now.
- 30:31Speaker 2: The other day we posted a video of Macy and
- 30:36Speaker 2: her attempt at pronouncing the word truck.
- 30:40Speaker 3: Do you mind if we put that in here right
- 30:41Speaker 3: now so people quiznip it? Yeah? Yeah, here's what she said, Macy,
- 30:45Speaker 3: can you say truck just one more time? For me?
- 30:50Speaker 3: Did you? Did you say? O? God? She's adorable. I
- 30:56Speaker 3: know the best part of that video is that I said,
- 30:58Speaker 3: you know you said fuck and she was like, yeah,
- 31:00Speaker 3: I know what I'm doing. You should hear us say,
- 31:03Speaker 3: oh no, it's great. So we did put a call out.
- 31:08Speaker 2: Matt, well, you did on the back of that because
- 31:11Speaker 2: you thought it'd be hilarious, which I also concurred.
- 31:14Speaker 1: There are many words that kids say unintentionally turning them
- 31:17Speaker 1: into swear words. And let's be honest, as much as
- 31:20Speaker 1: we don't want kids to swear, there is nothing funnier
- 31:23Speaker 1: than a toddler dropping the F as well as many
- 31:27Speaker 1: other profanities. So here are a few words that kids
- 31:30Speaker 1: accidentally turn into swear words. Crocodile turns into fucodile, Garbage
- 31:37Speaker 1: truck turns into fuckage, fuckage, thank you turns into fuck you.
- 31:47Speaker 3: We say they don't know, but they definitely. I've got
- 31:51Speaker 3: a couple here really quick. So this one says my
- 31:53Speaker 3: son says dinosaur, but it always sounds like asshole. I
- 31:58Speaker 3: don't know how everything to into like like it just
- 32:02Speaker 3: turns into fucking Okay, what do you think This one is?
- 32:05Speaker 3: Fuck a fly? That's a butterfly? Yeah, I go on here,
- 32:11Speaker 3: fucking button? Oh what you got?
- 32:20Speaker 1: Spring rolls struggling with That one turns into fucking rolls.
- 32:25Speaker 1: I don't know these kids what they just love saying.
- 32:28Speaker 3: They just love the fuck word. You go, okay, how

- 33:20Speaker 3: very very good.
- 33:21Speaker 1: And as a parent, that's a little like humorous boost
- 33:24Speaker 1: that you need to get through the day slash week.
- 33:26Speaker 3: Absolutely, I love that. All right, Well, let's move on
- 33:30Speaker 3: to our favorite segment. Man. Petty couples. Petty couples, petty couple,
- 33:37Speaker 3: Welcome down the street, petty couple. They can I like
- 33:41Speaker 3: with me? Couple, I love you, but immit you, No
- 33:49Speaker 3: one can push me quite like you.
- 33:55Speaker 2: So this is the segment where you write in the
- 33:57Speaker 2: petty little thing that you do to your significant other
- 34:02Speaker 2: because we love that shit. I got a couple of
- 34:04Speaker 2: quick ones I want to rattle off, Matt.
- 34:05Speaker 3: You know I like a quick ash. I know, Laura
- 34:07Speaker 3: told me, all right, this one's from Joan. Fuck you.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Joan leaves the plastic on the cheese sandwich because he
- 34:16Speaker 2: should be making his own lunch.
- 34:18Speaker 3: Just absolutely I agree.
- 34:21Speaker 1: Do you know? It's an important lesson that I learned
- 34:24Speaker 1: as a youngster. And if you do a job badly,
- 34:27Speaker 1: you don't get asked to do it again.
- 34:29Speaker 3: Yeah, at least. Look. I like the ones.
- 34:32Speaker 2: This one had context to why she does that go on?
- 34:36Speaker 2: But the next one there's no context, And I don't
- 34:38Speaker 2: know why. Obviously they've just got this secret. Maybe they
- 34:42Speaker 2: resent them and they just need to do this. But
- 34:44Speaker 2: Hallie says, I folded all his socks with odd ones.
- 34:47Speaker 2: Good good, It's so like it's small, petty cod harmlet.
- 34:55Speaker 3: But what led you to that point? Yeah, that's what
- 34:57Speaker 3: I want to know.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no I think I dislike more ash in this. Well,
- 35:03Speaker 1: actually a few things, but let's not go let's not
- 35:05Speaker 1: go into it. Why I dislike wearing odd socks. It
- 35:10Speaker 1: just I just can't do it, Ash, Yes, I have.
- 35:13Speaker 1: I have one here. It's a bit of a long one.
- 35:14Speaker 1: I won't say her name. She would like to say anonymous,
- 35:17Speaker 1: and of course I will respect those wishes. You can,
- 35:20Speaker 1: of course, a reminder to everyone out there, you do
- 35:23Speaker 1: not have to give your name.
- 35:24Speaker 3: We don't want to cause divorce.
- 35:25Speaker 1: We don't do we We we should like invest, like
- 35:30Speaker 1: buy into a divorce lawyer.
- 35:33Speaker 3: And live on. Okay, this is from to say a name.
- 35:38Speaker 3: I will not nearly.
- 35:40Speaker 1: My husband and I have just celebrated our five year anniversary, congratulations,
- 35:46Speaker 1: and we are pretty petty fantastic. The latest petty thing
- 35:52Speaker 1: I've done, however, is somewhat fair. Let us be the
- 35:55Speaker 1: judge of that, she says. Ash I refuse to share
- 36:00Speaker 1: my pubic hair because he refuses to shave his mustache.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Whoa yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let me stop your
- 36:10Speaker 2: eye there, go on. There is nothing wrong with a
- 36:13Speaker 2: man's mustache, and there's nothing someone call it the womb broom.
- 36:17Speaker 2: There is nothing wrong with a hairy viageme.
- 36:20Speaker 3: Absolutely not that.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Both are beautiful in their own right. Yeah, let's continue,
- 36:26Speaker 1: she says.
- 36:28Speaker 3: Let me explain.
- 36:28Speaker 1: My husband is a firefighter and they're not allowed to
- 36:31Speaker 1: grow a beard, so they're only allowed to grow a mustache,
- 36:33Speaker 1: and they have to have a clean shave and every shift.
- 36:37Speaker 1: Her husband has decided yet again to grow his mustache.
- 36:40Speaker 1: But the issue is he grows their thickest hairs on
- 36:43Speaker 1: his upper lip, resulting in what looks like a seventies
- 36:46Speaker 1: porn star stash that never softens. So kissing him is
- 36:50Speaker 1: like kissing a cactus.
- 36:52Speaker 2: So the petty thing is she just refuses to shave
- 36:55Speaker 2: a bush. He's probably like thinking, how good.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Is Maybe he likes it.
- 37:03Speaker 1: He's getting the seventies pointstersh Maybe he likes a Harry
- 37:08Speaker 1: bush downstairs.
- 37:09Speaker 4: Maybe Look, I don't think it's that petty. I think
- 37:12Speaker 4: it's I think it's beautiful of the mustache, of the
- 37:18Speaker 4: mustache and your bush.
- 37:22Speaker 2: Let's gets some listening questions, so I'll go first. Man,
- 37:25Speaker 2: I have a question, Well, I don't I always say
- 37:27Speaker 2: that Taylor does. How do you cope when your partner's
- 37:30Speaker 2: parents don't like you?
- 37:33Speaker 1: I can't give an answer based on personal experience because
- 37:36Speaker 1: everyone has always loved me, and I've never had a
- 37:40Speaker 1: situation where a parent, Yeah, they've always been pretty happy
- 37:44Speaker 1: that I've been dating their child.
- 37:47Speaker 3: I played that very cool. Then I know a friend.
- 37:54Speaker 3: I have a friend I won't say his name is Matthew.
- 37:58Speaker 1: But they had a similar nario where this woman had
- 38:04Speaker 1: gotten together with a guy and she was lovely. She
- 38:08Speaker 1: was you know, if you're wanting someone to marry your son.
- 38:12Speaker 1: This woman ticked all the boxes.
- 38:14Speaker 3: You know.
- 38:14Speaker 1: She was considerate, she was kind, she was hard working,
- 38:18Speaker 1: she had a lot of love to give, excited to
- 38:20Speaker 1: be a mom, also career driven, just like all around
- 38:23Speaker 1: great person. And yet from the get go the mom
- 38:28Speaker 1: hated her, the.
- 38:30Speaker 3: Mother in law. Mother in law.
- 38:31Speaker 1: Okay, so the mother of the guy hated this woman.
- 38:35Speaker 3: Do you think it's like like a bit of a
- 38:37Speaker 3: like are not good enough my son complex? It was.
- 38:40Speaker 1: It was down to the fact that the mom thought
- 38:43Speaker 1: she had an issue with the fact that she was like.
- 38:45Speaker 3: Losing her son oh to another woman. And it didn't
- 38:50Speaker 3: matter what.
- 38:51Speaker 1: She did, she always like had an issue with how
- 38:54Speaker 1: she was doing things. Whether it was like that's on
- 38:56Speaker 1: the mom though, that's what And it's similar to this
- 38:58Speaker 1: scenario here is like what's your reasoning?
- 39:01Speaker 3: Like you're I know, it.
- 39:02Speaker 1: Must be really hard. I can imagine that when my
- 39:05Speaker 1: children grow up, when they are you know, having their
- 39:09Speaker 1: own families, and then you know, either will be a
- 39:12Speaker 1: period where I'll be like waving goodbye to them and
- 39:14Speaker 1: they're going to.
- 39:15Speaker 3: Hate them, unless it's a truly haterable person.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're disliking your child's partner purely based on
- 39:22Speaker 1: the fact that you feel like the relationship is being removed,
- 39:26Speaker 1: grow the fuck up.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Yeah, totally, grow the fuck up.
- 39:30Speaker 1: The thing that sucks is, though, if you're on the
- 39:32Speaker 1: receiving end, you have to I think just acknowledge that
- 39:36Speaker 1: that relationship, unfortunately, may never get better. The person who
- 39:40Speaker 1: I'm referring to, they've been married for almost ten years now,
- 39:44Speaker 1: and the relationship has never.
- 39:46Speaker 3: Progressed, never progressed that level of tension. Question for you,
- 39:49Speaker 3: A yes. Do you have any advice?
- 39:52Speaker 1: Is?
- 39:53Speaker 3: This is from Charlotte.
- 39:54Speaker 1: She asks, do you have any advice for how you
- 39:57Speaker 1: can get your children to wipe their own bar?
- 40:01Speaker 4: Oh?
- 40:03Speaker 3: No, anyway, that side tells me that you are a
- 40:07Speaker 3: man who was defeated. Yeah, look, I hate does Oscar?
- 40:10Speaker 2: First of all, Oscar will sit there on the toilet
- 40:13Speaker 2: heeo pool and you're going, mom, it was like busy
- 40:16Speaker 2: or something like, oh do it Okay, I'll do it,
- 40:19Speaker 2: and he's like, no, Mom, Like, first of all, ouch,
- 40:24Speaker 2: it's not a pleasure to wipe your asshole. But and
- 40:28Speaker 2: I've been trying to be like, you're going to have
- 40:29Speaker 2: to do this on your own, mainly because the other
- 40:32Speaker 2: day I was wiping his bart my finger slips through
- 40:35Speaker 2: the toilet paper. Ah, not good, not good, pool all
- 40:40Speaker 2: over my finger.
- 40:41Speaker 3: Get that thing away from me. Fucking weird. Anyway, I
- 40:47Speaker 3: was like, so making make him wipe his own bum, right.
- 40:49Speaker 3: I was like, you need to.
- 40:50Speaker 2: Wipe your own bomb. And he was like no, And
- 40:52Speaker 2: I was like, okay, And I've said this before. If
- 40:55Speaker 2: you're not gonna wipe your bum and I have to
- 40:58Speaker 2: wipe your bum, that means you you have to wipe
- 41:00Speaker 2: my bump from now on.
- 41:02Speaker 3: Oh and I made it sound as bad as it
- 41:05Speaker 3: actually is.
- 41:06Speaker 1: You gotta be careful because that could get your children
- 41:09Speaker 1: taken away from me.
- 41:11Speaker 3: I just wanted it to be like, oh no, why,
- 41:13Speaker 3: I'd much rather do my own. So far hasn't worked.
- 41:17Speaker 2: I still wipe in his butt, but and I even go,
- 41:20Speaker 2: I even do what he does, and I open the
- 41:23Speaker 2: door and I go oscar like just to tease him,
- 41:26Speaker 2: smell from behind must be I was opened the door,
- 41:31Speaker 2: and I'm like, who am I kidding?
- 41:32Speaker 3: The door's already opened. I'm like, Oscar can't wipe my butt, no, like,
- 41:37Speaker 3: So I'm working on him.
- 41:38Speaker 1: I'm wearing him down because even when I have had Marley,
- 41:42Speaker 1: who's now almost five, wipe her own bump.
- 41:44Speaker 3: It's just making a mess. So you'd much rather just
- 41:46Speaker 3: do it. Yeah, I just do it properly.
- 41:48Speaker 1: Otherwise otherwise she's going to be that d she'll like
- 41:50Speaker 1: just smear shit literally everywhere on the toilet seat on
- 41:54Speaker 1: her backside, and she'll whip he under his own and
- 41:56Speaker 1: get dressed and be like when finished. She doesn't understand
- 41:59Speaker 1: like that, you have to wipe until the toilet paper's clean.
- 42:03Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that time where I told that story
- 42:04Speaker 2: where Oscar pooped in the back of the thatpy and
- 42:06Speaker 2: the inflicted against the wall and it hit the wall
- 42:08Speaker 2: and slid down the tile ball.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't understand it. They don't get it. They
- 42:12Speaker 3: don't get it. So I've got no advice. Then just
- 42:16Speaker 3: persevere until they move out.
- 42:17Speaker 2: Before we go, Matt, we do have a little treat
- 42:21Speaker 2: okay off the back of our little stone and would
- 42:23Speaker 2: chat earlier.
- 42:24Speaker 3: If something's come up, it's naked photos of ash with
- 42:30Speaker 3: it's just the cases of Stone and with themselves.
- 42:32Speaker 2: Yes, to celebrate the release of the wood fired port,
- 42:35Speaker 2: we have a carton to give away, Matt, How does
- 42:38Speaker 2: someone win this?
- 42:39Speaker 1: All you have to do is share a story of
- 42:41Speaker 1: yourself listening to two doting dads tag us tag Stone,
- 42:43Speaker 1: and would follow both accounts, and we'll pick someone at
- 42:46Speaker 1: random to win the case of beer.
- 42:49Speaker 3: And we'll pick someone at random. Can I win this one?
- 42:52Speaker 1: You already have like twelve cases in your garage?
- 42:55Speaker 3: I would need one more ash.
- 42:58Speaker 1: We better, we better back up, mate, because it's time
