  Speaker 1: all back look at me, go wow. I know I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: was tempted, but I was like, oh no, it's a

  Speaker 1: was like I'm trying to find you on TV but
• 3:45

• 4:40
  Speaker 1: just want to know how many people ask? Yeah, four
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: or five different people far, Yeah, that's pretty cool. I
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: went over there with a toothache. The teeth hurt me.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: The karma, oh, the karma is coming thick and fast.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: The teeth karmas don't know the pressure of that aeroplane.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, oh my goeat I make it.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: It was brutal for like the last just like the
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: last twenty five minutes where you're like descending, you know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: they're like.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Store your trade tables, put your seat back up. Made
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: it hurt, and they're like put your brace yourself for
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: a saw tooth. And then landed and I was fine.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: But then I had it all weekend and then I
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: got back.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: And another plane trip on the way back really fucking
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: sent it off. So I've had to go from being
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: the guy who gives nothing but dentists shit.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Now you've come running to them for help. No I know,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: And they're like, oh it is because I haven't seen
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: a dentist in so long. It's obviously a new dentist.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And they were like, you feel this format here and
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I was like, this is the trick and wait for
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: embass my credit card details. The girl on the desk
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: was like, HOWNG. Has it been since you've seen a dentist?
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: And I was like for ten years? And she was
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: like oh, oh one of them. And I was like,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: oh fuck.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: They're like list all your problems and I was like this,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: I've got too many.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: And then I sat down.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: The dental hygieneis met me lovely, and then dentist also
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: very lovely. That's their trick, they said, trickery. And it
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: turns out that I need a tooth extracted. I've got
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: to wait another two weeks before it can be extracted.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Why do they just take it out then and there?
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: I think because they want to essentially reduce the pain
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: and information of any infection before they actually rip it out.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not a dentist. I just took their advice. You
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: could be you know what you're talking about it. He
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: was like, and look, I'm a little bit like, am
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I going to be awake? Are we going to be
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: awake with this?
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: He's like, oh yeah, yeah, it's all these dentists in
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: the going get him with the pain, get him back.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: We're not just mouth salesman. They could be under but
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: he's like, no, I'm of course they did. Classic mouth
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: salesman tried to sell them with a root canal, oldest
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: trick in the book. If you do a root canal,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: they can save the tooth. What's the root canal worth?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: How much is that? Oh? It's like five grand? Oh shit.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: He's like, I'll give you a couple of sleeping tablets
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: knock out for sixty five bucks and rip it out
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: of your head. I was like, and then I showed
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: him that golf. I'm like, can you do something like this? Insurance?
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Do I have insurance? Do you know? Can you get insured?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Am I? I'm told I don't have any I don't
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: have any healthcare. I've got no private health nothing but
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: no insurance. You will? I have a handwritten will. What
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: is this to say?
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: Well, I don't have any belongings, so what's the point
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: of it. I have two kids. Any surfboards, I'm taking
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: it with me. So Anyway've got a couple of weeks
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: of a sore mouth. So if I started to talk
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: like it, it's because my mouth really hurt.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: So when they take the tooth out, will that just
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: be gone? You have a gap in your set of
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: teeth or are you going to replace it with something?
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I don't really have the money to replace it with anything.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: What would I put in there? A brand new can't
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: are you gold tooth? Yeah? That would be, but then
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: how much is that going to be worth? I wouldn't
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: get real gold copper copper lead you.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: You came to me with a really unique proposal, which
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: was that when they extract the tooth, they said we
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: welcome guests.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: I was like, come film it, record it, see what happens.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: It could be it could be funny.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to be in the room.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: We could be boring. I'll turn it up a bit.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: I'm sure I'll be like, ah, I don't know.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: If I don't like blood, I'm me I'm so scared.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but hey, if you need me there, not just
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: film content, but just to be there as a bit
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: of reassurance, hold your hand.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I'm more than happy to be that person I needed
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: to pick me up. At least. Surely you won't be
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: able to drive home?
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: No, They're like you can't. I was like, oh, can
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: I go under? They're like yeah, but it's about two
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: hundred times the price. I'm like, worth it? Put me
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: under good.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Luck two weeks two weeks from now, two weeks exactly
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: from now. I'll keep you updates. If it falls out
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: on its own, that'd be fuck, that'd be amazing. Just
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: do what?
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Oh mate, dude, what's the one Tom Hanks on an
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: island castaway when he gets the ice skating shoe and
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: then he gets a rock and he uses that to.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Get the tooth out? How did he find an ice
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: skating shoe on an I one?
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Because he was on a FedEx plane and all the
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: packages would wash up on the beach.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Surely there'd be some cool stuff on there. Well. I
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: don't want to give away the movie in case people
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it's not true story of the movie. No, I fucking
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: made that up. Sorry.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Look, whilst you were gallivanting around Perth watching grown men
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: wrestle each other okay, and also yeah, doing ships and
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: putting it on stories for those of you who didn't
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: see it, I've saved it.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: It's not that bad. People message me being like this
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: ash okay. No. April messaged me and was like, can
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: you get to Perth save him? And I was like,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I'll be there in four hours five. And whilst you
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: were having a great weekend.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: We had the funeral. Oh yes, not to change my announces.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: It was a beautiful Like it sounds weird to say
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: it was.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: A one of those funerals are hard things to say,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Like it was good. It was.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: It was a a great funeral in that those funerals. Yeah,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: like everyone spoke really really well. You know, sometimes you
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: have speeches at weddings and there's always one person who
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: just goes on for ages and ages and ages. But
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: those who spoke at the service was beautiful, really really moving.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: It was kind of hard with the kids. It was
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: a long service, dude, really long, like two hours. Yeah,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: it was. It was like almost like almost three hours.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Even even the shouldn't laugh, should laugh, but Neil was here,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: he'd want us to laugh. Neil Rip the second last speaker.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: They have like an MC similar to a wedding. You know,
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: you have someone who's who's a priest. He wasn't that religious.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: It wasn't a priest. It was more like he actually
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: he was great. He looked like a surfy dude. He
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: looked I thought he was one of Neil's friends. But
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: his job, this guy he goes through and he like
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: MC's funerals, and he kind of learned off because.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: We're sitting it. I suppose the dead guy can't review him.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure Neil victim he was no good.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: But he kind of leant over because we're sitting in
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: the front row, and he's like, I've got a two
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: thirty funeral, so I'm going to have to go soon.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Because everything was a lot slower, and you know, speeches
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: dragged out longer than anticipated. So he's like, I've got
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: I've got another one to go to. I'm like, how
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: many are you doing all weekend? What's the pay for that?
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: H that's great? Are you hiring?
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: But the kids, the kids were great for like the
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: first two speeches, and we explained them as well. Were
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: totally upfront. We said, you know, this is our opportunity
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: to say goodbye to Neil. My mom told me a
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: story when she was a kid, she went to a
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: funeral and it just burned into her brain that she
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: remembers back then, I think open caskets were a lot
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: more common.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: They're not going to wake up, are they?
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Well, she thought, like she was just it was such
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: a scary thought, having, you know, at the front of
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: the room, having the coffin there and knowing that the
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: person's in there. The coffin was open for my mom
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: and she's like that. I couldn't sleep at night, and
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: so I was so nervous about.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Like I think I thought you were going to tell
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: me the person actually wasn't dead, and they were like,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: what are you guys doing it? It does happen not
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: to us.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: But I wasn't sure if, like being completely upfront with
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: all the details at the funeral, if I should continue
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: to be upfront and say Neil is in that box,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: or if I say, yeah, I could just that information
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: is not kind of critical to the whole situation. So
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I was like, maybe I just removed that.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: It could be like that symbolic of his life or something.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Yeahs open no close casket. But I was really nervous
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: about that. I didn't want the girls to think, like, why.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Is he there's a dead body in there. That's it.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: So they didn't ask, which I think was the best
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: thing for it. But maybe, like I think two speeches
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: in the girls were like, well, we're kind of bored now.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: And that's fair, like you know, three and five, Yeah,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: they don't.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Understand the seriousness of it for everyone else that you know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: because they would have only known Neil for their short lives.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: But then they probab don't understand completely.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: And even the MC when they were making noise, he
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: was like a kid, like, let them make noise.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Everyone everybody was in Hawaiian shirts, so it wasn't a
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: subdued everyone in black traditional funeral. But the best thing is,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: if anyone has any funerals coming up, which I hope
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: they don't, bring in some coloring pencils and coloring in.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Books for the kids. Yeah, like that was such a great.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Move when they were getting restless, and just having them
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: sit on the floor and color in.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: You could print out pictures of the casket, like color
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: and how you think it should be.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: That's Ash's advice, not mine. Oh, I'm just trying to
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: make use of the whole situation. Do the girls sit
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: there for the whole time? No, we had to.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: They colored in for a bit, then they got hungry
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: because you know, it's a long time. So then Laura
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: was consoling her mum. So then I was kind of
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: the person who was We go to the back of
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the room and then we'd color at the back of
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: the rooms. I could run around for a bit and

  Speaker 2: Why a week? Who made it a week? Why make
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: it more than one day? One day is enough. It's

  Speaker 2: hard enough trying to scrounge together a costume for one
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: day of the year.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Why are we doing it for five whole days?
• 18:10

• 18:31
  Speaker 1: hear me out, Yeah, I'm here.

• 18:37
  Speaker 3: to your left every day.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: What are some of the costumes on rotation you could have?
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: I don't know, Harry McClary, because the book week Bluie.

  Speaker 2: multiple families East apparaded on different days and it was
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: a great beautiful Easter hat that we then got at
• 19:08

• 19:10
  Speaker 2: bit sad, but yeah, it was just a similar, similar concept, right.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: Like I said, the amount of pressure put on to
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: be like, we're very fortunate that we do this for
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: a job, so like we.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Probably have a little bit of time that we can
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: get this shit together. But people were very busy.

  Speaker 3: People work like trainees, work like seven toll five, like
• 19:28

• 40:21
  Speaker 1: I'll go first.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: I want to put you on the spot here. This
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: is a question submitted by one of the longest running
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: fans of the podcast, Maddy Jay.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: I want to know ask.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: Have you had to explain to your kids? I'm assuming
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: not because Macy's very young, but maybe Oscar about periods function.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: We asked that question because are we April's currently on
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: a period?
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: Shout out to April, shout out. I hope you're doing it, okay,
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: I hope you feeling good season trying to tread really
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: lightly over. And I was like, as Oscar ever asked
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: you about like a tamponn or a pad and she
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: was like, yeah, yeah.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: He got a pat out of my bag once and
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: was like, are these mummies nappies? Kinda were having this
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: conversation yesterday in front of Oscar and he was like,
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: we're a bit sheepish, and I was like, it's okay,
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: buy but it's okay, buddy, ummy shits herself all the time.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: That's about to the extent that we I've had.
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: I mean, like you said, Mace's quite young, and she's
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: still on one word sentence.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so she's not ready for like this is a period.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: It kind of happened to you once a month. It's like, well,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: you know what happened to the eggs.
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: I don't even know because it happened to happen to us.
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: I don't think Laura has told the girls about periods.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure she has it because my sister was
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: around and she took the kids out for a little
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: little treat, went to the cafe.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Kids had to go to the toilet. My sister also
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: went to the.
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: Toilet, so they went together, and then as she pulled
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: her pants down, they saw a tampon.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: Moley was like, what the hell is that? This? What
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: the hell? Look at her mouse coming out.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: And my sister was like, oh no, it's just that's
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: mummy's in a period. And and then Mamie was like,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: who's doing what now? And her kids like they've seen
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: in that same scenario of taking the kids in the bathroom.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: There was one time because I said to my sister,
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: I was like, like, when do you tell your kids?
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: And she was like why. She was using a pad,
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: went to the bathroom. Kids saw the.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: Pad were like bleeding, Oh my god.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: So she explained to them it happens once a month
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: and uh so then now Molly's like, how many sleeps?
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: Very good? Thank you, very good.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: So I'm now hoping like it's up to me to
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: tell my kids about periods.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: God help us. That's up to Laura. Mate, I'm doing it.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: Show me whole kids. I've got a story to tell you.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: It must be scarier. And I'm like, once a month,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: you will stop bleeding. I'm controllable. I know, like for
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: a week he may die. We don't know.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: In the olden days, you would stand in a ditch
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: for a week long. And these days we have these
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: little things called I love that. It's like there's a
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: mouse in you, vagina. Oh funny stuff. I have a
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: question for you.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: I thought you were like, you're gonna ask a question. No,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: I wasn't. I was going to do something different, singing
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: a song. I've got a question for you.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Might not be as applicable to you because you've got
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: two girls.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: And girls, what's sensible, maybe, Lola, not so sensible?
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: Is it okay to let your child do dangerous things
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: but safely?
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: So?
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: What I mean by that is it was like walk
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: on the table, or make sure you don't fall off,
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: so that they can know where the boundaries are or
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: do you think it's just like an go Look.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: There is a line with anything.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: Obviously, if it's going to be an activity where they're
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: risking serious injury, I think it would be very negligent
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: to allow your child to still take part in that activity.
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: If they're doing an activity which if they have an accident,
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: it'll be like a little fall, a little grays I
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: think it's okay. As an example, lash just down the
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: road from my daycare, the wall.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: The wall.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: Have I told you about? I know about the wall.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: There's a little wall.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: It's like shinheiight, right too, shin Sorry, it's run through
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: about ten meters right.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: And the girls, for whatever reason, when we walked to
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: the car, we walked past the wall and they both
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: love to walk the length of the wall. And I
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: always hold the hand because it's an adventure too, like that. Yeah,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: kids are adventurous. Yeah. And then one time Laula was like,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: don't fucking touch me. Oh, and I was like, you
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: gotta be careful. She's a renegade and she's.
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: On that she'll probably do it by herself. But a
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: lot of the time I think she's quite drunk and
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: I was like, Daddy's going to hold your hand, and
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: she's like, don't get away from me, like a drunk person.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: I'm doing this by myself.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: And I was like, do you know what, fine, do
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: it by yourself. No, She'll four steps and took a
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: tumble and it was undergrass.
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: He like told you. Another parent kind of looked at
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: me and actually like hit the deck. I was like, well,
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: what's what you get, She's like a parent looked at
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: me as if I was just the shittest dad ever. No,
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: that's that's genius, teacher Moleston. She hasn't walked that wall solo.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: I wanted to since then. So so you think it works, Yeah,
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: I think it works. Yeah.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: Like I've got a boy and he is likes to
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: jump off things and all sorts of stuff, and like
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: I'm very much like it's the same thing as long
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: as it's not completely dangerous. Like I used to hang
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: him upside down all the time, like we would be
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: like playing and hang him upside down and.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Like Michael Jackson out like a balcony window or something. Yeah,
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: just at the back of the window off. I story.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: It was nothing. It was really fun, but I joking. Yeah,
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: I'm like, that's fine because I've I've got control of
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: the situation. But I remember when I was doing it
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: my father in law, Frank, who's quite a cautious guy,
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that. I just winked a Matt, but
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: he was like he would be like, and I was like, well,
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: I'm doing it safely. But like if I'm doing if
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Oscar's doing something it's like real dangerous and it's like
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: there is no way of doing that safely. I'll be like, oh,
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: wait down, you know.
• 46:34
  Speaker 6: But they kind of need to figure it out, and
• 46:35
  Speaker 6: say they need to figure out if if you can't
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: let your kids walk up and down the stairs, it's
• 46:39
  Speaker 6: you know, a bit shaky, and how they're.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Ever going to know? Like I find that like as well.
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: When Oscar does something dangerous and does hurt himself, what
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: helps is the relatability.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: Was like, do you know what, I did that too?
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: I did it when I was a kid. I did
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: that too. I was riding my bike and run straight
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: into a tree. I did that too. Sometimes you got
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: to do it. Sometimes you got to do it to
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: feel how it hurts.
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: So I think like, yeah, but I think if it's
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: life threatening, I think you're right, That's where I was
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: getting at.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: Hey, before we go, Yes, we do have to clear
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: something up, and I thought naming our book two Doting
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Dads as like the headline title smart, very smart.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: People know us and know the podcast. If they don't,
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: maybe they want to get to know us. I now
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: realized that was a huge mistake.
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't say mistake. I feel like we've hit a
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: new audience, separate audience.
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, are we frauds, No, and we never ever once,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: but we're not correcting people.
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to findnyone by saying no, no, no, no,
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: no no no.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: That could be worse.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, I guess the best way to put it
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: is we're swimming with the tide, and the tide is
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: pulling us into a certain direction.
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Yeap. Just to give you guys some context, we did
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: release a book. I don't know if you hear the
• 47:56

• 48:03
  Speaker 3: nice people.
