  Speaker 2: So just on the record, I told everyone the story,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: by the way, not me, people, I've been holding onto
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: the story because Kate can tell you and the listeners
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: at school. I've told you, like when I've got nothing
• 4:01

• 4:07
  Speaker 1: People like just an injury? Small talk injuries.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: There is a weather and injuries.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Especially at like over thirty years of old age, you
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: can start talking about your injuries.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: You had a beautiful weekend at.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: The snow, Okay.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: So I just wanted to start with saying, like, on
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: the record, skiing is not my ideal holiday. Didn't want
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: to go how you wanted to go. Kids have skied
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: with him, actually solo for the past couple of years,
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: but Charlotte's been a bit little, our five year old.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: So he was like, let's all go on skiing holiday Fiji.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: That's a whole Oh yeah, oh Heyking, We'll.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah not skiing okay. So we got there on the
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Monday afternoon. We actually had pretty good, great conditions as well,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: amazing ski season, like, yes, record the best.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I trust you and believe you because I don't know
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: anything about it. Really good.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: So the whole reason we're actually why we chose the
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: week that we went as well, was because I had
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: a really good school mum who was having her fortieth birthday.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: She her big skiing family, so she wanted to have
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: her fortieth birthday down at the snow beautiful. Yeah, there
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: was a few families going down. She booked at nice
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: restaurant which is up on the mountains, so you've got
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: to get a chair lift and ski too. It's like
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: halfway down the mountain, so.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: You've got it.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: If if you have to be able to ski or snowboard,
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: if you want to come, you can't go.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: You can't go.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: This whole snow feel throughout the poor people. Ye, this
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: beautiful restaurant booked.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: I haven't skied in over ten years. I was just
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: getting my footing back. I was very much like green runs,
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: just green runs, slow and steady, very slow, instid.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I want to stop these every time. What's a green run?
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: An easy? Easy?
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Just give me the colors green, green, good, blue, blue, black?
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Is that most diamond is that where that black diamond is, Yeah, black,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: and the black diamond is like the.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: Most brown brown brown in the middle.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, blue.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Blue. Because by the second day my husband is quite
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: a good skier. He I was like, so another green
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: run and he was like, can we do a black
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: just be born with me. But Tuesday, unfortunately the winds
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: were too high. The kids could still ski on their
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: little it's called Friday flats.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Well for people who don't know your kids.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Are nine, seven and five.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I love how it's too winny for the adults at
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: chacrifices the children. That's what the snow people do. I'm
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: really not liking this hobby.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: There's like one little chairlip that still operated halfway up
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: for the kids. Yeah, it's great because we were like
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: school if you go see r But then we couldn't ski.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: And then Wednesday it was a dumped whole heap of snow.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: It was freezing cold.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Dump means a lot ash.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: And then Thursday it was the most amazing day. It
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: was by far the best day to ski. It was
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: blue skies. We dropped the kids to ski school. They
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: were all even the five year old was really picking
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: it up. Now so they were loving it. On our
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: first run up the mountain, got a chair lift and
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: then we skied over, and then we were getting a
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: tee bar up to quite a high point. Now, tee
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: bar is if you imagine like an upside down.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Tee You hold on to it, don't you.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: No, you sit on it, so you sit onto the
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: bottom of the tea bin, but you can't, and yeah.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: It seems ridiculous.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: It pulls you up, so you're kind of still standing,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: but it drags you up.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: And so we were going up, jumped on a tear
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: and we were trying to figure out like which because
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: a couple of the chair lifts still weren't open, which
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: chail lis were open, and where we would go, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: where we could get a coffee and where we might
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: go for lunch, and all of a sudden, there's so
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: many options. There's so many options.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: You ski, people have so many options.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Yes, so we look up and because my husband is
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: heavier than me and he was on the right, we
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: were like veering off course. So the tea bar can
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: still pull you, but we were like, really, going.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: On, how far does it retract twenty what that's got
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: to be? They've got to they've got to fix.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: So as Bill was, Bill, your husband was starting to
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: veer off course? Yes, did he not correct himself?
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: No, well, he I was thinking like because he was
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: kind of controlling where we're going, what we're doing. I
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: just thought, oh, he's got this, he'll like lean back
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: over and we'll kind of go back on course. But
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: he was really like looking around and not paying any
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: attentions where we're going. To the last second, I was like, Bill, Marie,
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: there's a pole, and so we were coming straight and like,
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: you're not going that fast, You're quite slow.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: It's like the same from Austin Powers with the roller
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: is just goings like move.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: So you can't make me laugh because even laughing hurts me.
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: So before we knew it, we'd like, the pole was
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: so close. So I actually came off the tee bar
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: not to hit the pole, ditch the bar. I ditched
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: the t bar, he hit the te he hit the
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: pole and took the t bar with him. Now, it
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: all happened very quickly, so I don't even understand. And
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: every doctor I've explained it to you, they're like, how
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: did it hit you? And I'm like, I don't know.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: But Basically he hit the pole. The cable kept going
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: and like hyper extended, and then its slingshot back a
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: round and I was in the way of it, and
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: the end of the tea bar just absolutely whacked me
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: in the really soft part of your bag.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I always hit you in like the worst spot.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: You know, I did you know what was happening? Because
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: you've you've ditched the t bar? Did you know I'm safe?
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: No?
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: And also I thought that i'd come off like in
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: the middle of the track, so then everyone else on
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: the tea bar is going to hit me, and it's Domino's.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I've seen the videos online of that happening, so.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: And I don't even actually remember it. But I ended
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: up on the other side of the track. But I
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: am in absolute agony on my stomach like this. And
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: I also been quite badly winded. So I was on
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: the ground going and Bill skied over. He was fine.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Right over me.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: He came over and he didn't realize how badly it
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: had hit me. See you get hit no, So he
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: was kind.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Of like, I didn't see anything.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I didn't knock you out. I didn't knock you.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: Out, no goodness, So I just thought i'd been really
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: badly corked in that part of my back. So luckily
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: there were actually two medics on the tee bar a
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: couple of tea bars behind me, so they came off.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: They lunch break the class and Bill was like, just
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: just roll like, roll over, bab, You'll be right. And
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: every time I moved an inch, even just breathing, was
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: this excruciating pain in my back, and I was like,
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: I don't think I can roll over. I can't move, I.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Can't walk this one off.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: They obviously checked all my spine stuff, like I could
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: feel my legs like it wasn't my fine, it was
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: that like corked feeling.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: And then the medics were like, let's get the toboggan.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: Let's get you like, you can't move, You're in a
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: lot of pain.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Pay for that.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: I haven't got a bill yet.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Is that like the snows of an ambulance.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: So the tobogan they like wrap cocoon you up. There's
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: a medic on one end like holding it. There's a
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: medic on the other and it's like a toboggan and
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: you are like strapped in. Yes, you're claustrophobic. I had
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: to just like make the self talk in my head. Yeah,
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: and you are going up a bump. So I was like,
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: ow ow, you have no control because Bill was like no,
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: and even I was like no, I don't need that.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: That's a lot of fuss. No, let me just oh
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: just try to like get up. And I was like, ah,
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: couldn't get up.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Noah.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: So they were like no, you can't, don't. We're gonna
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: get the tobogganing.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: What a scene on the edge of a mountain.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: I know, it was so bad. Yeah, I'm like I'm thinking, like,
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: I'll be right behind you because I was like, you
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: can't do anything. Keep skinning like it's the best day.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Don't attention to us.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: He would have been thinking ship.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like that guy in High Rocks. He left
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: his missus. He put us out. He's like, we're over.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: So Bill said I will come with you. Yeah.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: So I had to be toboggan down and then got
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: transported to the medics center at Threadbow. So Doc got
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: assessed by a doctor and with the level of pain
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: that he was like, take some panadine for what I'm
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: kind of worried about. That's where your kidneys are. You
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: had a really big blow. I just want to like
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: check your kidneys. So when you can, I wanted you
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: to do a wee, which was the most excruciating, like, well,
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: I reckon Western childbirth the pain because it's obviously kidney
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: with something. It's it's hit something like just getting off
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: the medical bed, trying to shuffle to the toilet, bending
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: over to sit on the toilet. I had to win
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: a cup and then watching the clock, I hit the slopes,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: blood in my uron like that quickly.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Is that how happens?
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: It was probably to be like the whole ordeal because
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: I had to get more medics, Like there was six
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: medics now with me up at the mountain. So it
• 14:26

  Speaker 4: really had to stick up for myself.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: I don't recall that at all.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: I also was probably a bit annoying. There was one
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: time where I was annoying you. I'll be honest, what
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: we're doing. We were like I was ten and you
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: and nine or something, and I was just like and
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: like in your face all the time.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: You were a lot bigger than me, as well.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Supposed to because you know, you were just just a
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: big Yeah. I was older.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: I was a scrawny little kid. I was I was
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: I was a premier.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: But guys, we don't fight. You're fighting right now, Okay,
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: I was.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm eighteen months older, but I just kept
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: going out and I remember you being like stop it,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: please stop it, leave me alone. Annoying. And then all
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: of a sudden, I don't know where, Matt just punched
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: me right in the nose. That just clocked me once.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: My nose was just spitching out blood.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: I was like, and so I was like, and I
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: was like, well, let's just relax.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: All those means is like when you accidentally hurt your sibling,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: you've just gone and walked her in the face.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: Oh random, Mom. I was like, straight in the night,
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: straight in the middle.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I thought, you guys, are I'll do it again. I
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: was like, Jesus, are you nine? You're okay, then you're fine.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: So my mom comes running down the hallway grabs him.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I imagine that sister, blood pouring out the nose, only daughter,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: and I was like. It was like, I was like, Mom,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: remember I'm a premie baby.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Very good.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: So you got thrown in your room and moms she
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: took to me with a wooden spoons. I think she
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: did as well.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: My sister's older as well. Her defense mechanism was because
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I was the annoying one, which go figure. She used
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: to just sit on me. She was bigger than me,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: and my mom was like, yeah, I just taught her
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: to sit on you because that had shut you right,
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: and she just wouldn't get off me. And then as
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: we got older, yeah, we're obviously sibling stuff and you
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: hurt each other. That's just how it is, right. And
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: then same thing as we got older, we got much more,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: much closer and stuff like that. So thankfully now we
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: don't punt each other.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: But yeah, now ashes really into being sat on.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: It's a king of mine. It's a king of mine.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: It was a really good sitter. I married her sat
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: through to bregnancy. Yeah, very good. And also what comes
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: along with siblings is embarrassing and embarrassment. My sister and

• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's nice. Yeah, that's a nice one.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: So we lived on the outskirts of Brisbane in the
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: western suburbs and we backed We had like a four
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: acre property and we backed onto a creek and so
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: like most of our childhood was going down to the
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: creek and finding tadpoles and yeah, we were just for
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: hours and hours leave in the morning.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: And then was it swimming this creek. It's hot in Brisbane, man,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: like the Margie.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah. And then every time a flood would come. Every
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: few years of flood would come and once it receded,
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: everything had the whole creek changed?
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, it would transform. It sounds like a movie.
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: So we would collect tadpoles thinking and like set little
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: homes for them.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Do you remember, though, sorry to cut you off for
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: you guys.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: Sorry, Well then they would turn into cana.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: So then we'd kill them.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Fald seats of security, like would nurture you up to
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: a stage where it's okay to kill you.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Do you remember, Because we used to ride our bikes everywhere.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: We would just go exploring. Yes, and we found that house.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: That was I told my kids that story as well.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: That was the weirdest house you found.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: A house in the suburb.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: So we like out out into the mountains, the mountains.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: It was like.
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: So we were the kids that literally we would like
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: get a backpack some sound and school holidays, we would
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: just ride our bikes.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: How do I get kids like that? Just like clanging on?
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: So we found this house.
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was an abandoned house, like a couple of
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: k's from our house, and we pulled our bikes up
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: there flowed this house and then we because like there
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: was furniture in there and there was like food on
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: the this sounds on the bench, like half eaten rice
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: bubbles and stuff so like, but then no one would
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: be in there and with the rass bubble still edible,
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: I don't know, so I tell them. The story I
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: tell my kids is we were exploring this house and
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: they were scratching.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Coming from the roofs oh my goodness, and we.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: Didn't know what it was. And all of a sudden
• 35:48
