5:09
Speaker 2: I got her a bike for a birthday once I
5:12
Speaker 2: got matching bike, knowing that, knowing she couldn't. With the
5:16
Speaker 2: thought behind it, I'm going to teach you how to
5:17
Speaker 2: ride a bike because I can rude a bike. It's
5:18
Speaker 2: that hard, Evidently it is. She did learn from me
5:23
Speaker 2: really quickly on a like a just like a playing field,
5:27
Speaker 2: so there's no people around here.
5:28
Speaker 1: As soon as we got that's what we tried to do.
5:31
Speaker 2: As soon as we got any people like, she was like.
5:37
Speaker 1: But she's a dancer, she's got great wife as this driver,
5:42
Speaker 1: she's she's got great balance, you know, mobility. I've seen

5:52
Speaker 1: backflips and she can do it.
5:54
Speaker 2: She's just I think it's just the people around. So

Speaker 2: I get that she wants to try again. So have
6:00
Speaker 2: you taught Marley?

Speaker 2: same time I teach April.
6:07
Speaker 1: And it's a competition. No, just just for the lulls
6:11
Speaker 1: o Marley, she's blessed cotton socks. She is no good.
6:15
Speaker 1: I've tried, and I guess it's one of these things
6:16
Speaker 1: you got to keep at it. But she gets frustrated.
6:19
Speaker 1: She hates it. But every time every time we're walking
6:22
Speaker 1: and we see a kid on a bike, she's like, gosh,
6:25
Speaker 1: god damn.
6:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, things you go stick. And we got the bikes
6:30
Speaker 2: at Christmas, and when we had trouble, we got the
6:33
Speaker 2: bikes to live it and all four tubes at the
6:35
Speaker 2: time were fun.
6:35
Speaker 1: That's right.
6:36
Speaker 2: I'm still I was still dealing with that till this.
6:39
Speaker 2: April kept saying to me, you need to fix because
6:41
Speaker 2: it happened again. You need to fix oscars. We only
6:44
Speaker 2: got divorced over one of those things in the house
6:47
Speaker 2: that it's like it's on the very bottom of like,
6:50
Speaker 2: unless oscars, let's ride the bike. He forgot it even
6:52
Speaker 2: had a bike, you know, and then I changed it.
6:55
Speaker 2: We got out a couple of times over the weekend.
6:57
Speaker 2: Maybee no leg strength.
6:59
Speaker 1: No, she's like from from starting from from flat ground,
7:05
Speaker 1: first momentum.
7:07
Speaker 2: And a little push and then she stops pedaling. She's
7:09
Speaker 2: like it stopped.
7:11
Speaker 1: But then when I got to give him a push,
7:12
Speaker 1: my kids are like, I got this, and I'm like,
7:17
Speaker 1: then I don't touch and they're like, well, they're gonna
7:19
Speaker 1: help me or not? Which one is it?
7:22
Speaker 2: Let go me, let go me, let go me, don't
7:24
Speaker 2: let go, don't let o me. It's the poor thing.
7:27
Speaker 2: I kept evying to adjusted the seat because I'm like,
7:28
Speaker 2: you need to keep I said, if you stop pedaling,
7:31
Speaker 2: the Bible stop. And then she was like okay, and
7:36
Speaker 2: I'm like, you got a pedal. She was like, oh,
7:38
Speaker 2: I'm oh, my God's sake.
7:40
Speaker 1: If it makes you feel any better about April, Laura,
7:43
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I'm not making this up. Laura can ride, however.
7:48
Speaker 2: She rides a motorbike.
7:49
Speaker 1: She's like, no, you think that right. But she had
7:53
Speaker 1: a severe accident. I think she broke her shoulder. Maybe

Speaker 2: sink and that's it. That's her Birthday's the twenty eighth
8:09
Speaker 2: of month.

Speaker 1: I a few times I said to Laura, like, hey,
8:14
Speaker 1: just have a little go, just have an attempt, and
8:17
Speaker 1: she was like petrified. It was like she was shaken.
8:20
Speaker 1: It was like she was behind the wheel of an
8:21
Speaker 1: F one car. She was like, I don't want.
8:23
Speaker 2: To do technically, I know what that's like.
8:25

Speaker 2: on her back.
14:45
Speaker 1: That was shit. And then I looked at her clothes.
14:48
Speaker 2: She's changed her clothes and everything, so she's trying to
14:51
Speaker 2: hide it from me.
14:53
Speaker 1: Poor thing.
14:53
Speaker 2: But I said to her, he hate I don't want
14:55
Speaker 2: you to ever feel that. You can't if there's been
14:58
Speaker 2: a mistake. And then I was like, hey, so that

Speaker 2: you know. And I just told her a few times
15:02
Speaker 2: that I've shat my pants okay, which we know guilty.
15:04
Speaker 1: Which I've been really good, I reckon. I told her
15:10
Speaker 1: about it the bar is.
15:13
Speaker 2: I told her about the I don't know I've told
15:15
Speaker 2: you this one. It was a manly Brisbane game at

Speaker 2: every layer soiled. Literally I had to put her in
15:43
Speaker 2: the shower.
15:45
Speaker 1: Yeah.
15:45
Speaker 2: I tried to wipe her up with a wife and
15:47
Speaker 2: just so that she didn't feel so bad.
15:48
Speaker 1: And I was like, host it down.
15:50
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to get the show in the garden.
15:53
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to get in the shower.
15:54

16:08
Speaker 1: Oh it's adorable.
16:10
Speaker 2: Anyway, So she shit herself and was everywhere.
16:12
Speaker 1: Can I just I know that we talk about shit
16:14
Speaker 1: a lot. Carry on. I'm just gonna just really quickly,
16:18
Speaker 1: I did something stupid talking about laundry as well. Laundry
16:20
Speaker 1: has had a good run for the last couple episodes.
16:23
Speaker 1: I was trying to help out at home. Just a
16:26
Speaker 1: good guy. Just a good guy. Look at me, trying
16:29
Speaker 1: to just like take on as much as I can
16:30
Speaker 1: around the house. I put a few loads of washing on.
16:34
Speaker 2: Oh what are you doing?
16:38
Speaker 1: Nana's not here. Nana's gone down south to Aladalla. So
16:41
Speaker 1: she's gone so with her girlfriends. Yeah, I know one
16:46
Speaker 1: of her birthdays. She's already fucking broken the aic on.
16:48
Speaker 1: It's another story. So I'm doing the washing and at
16:52
Speaker 1: the same time, I don't want to put this on Laura,
16:55
Speaker 1: but there's like a dirty some dirty items that she
16:57
Speaker 1: just puts at the base of the washing, so not
17:00
Speaker 1: into the laundry basket to set the base.
17:03
Speaker 2: She's skipped the middleman altogether, skipped the middleman.
17:06
Speaker 1: As I've taken things out like some of the onesies
17:09
Speaker 1: for example, which you know, it's a high turnaround. I
17:12
Speaker 1: just want to get them dry, so I take them
17:14
Speaker 1: out of the washing machine, put them in the dryer.
17:16
Speaker 1: Some of them have fallen, so then I've just picked
17:19
Speaker 1: up what's what's in front of me, put it in there.
17:23
Speaker 1: Poppy had a poonami ship all the way up the backside,
17:26
Speaker 1: so a full load of fucking undies and socks and
17:29
Speaker 1: onesies and kids clothing. I then put in the dryer
17:34
Speaker 1: with a ship filled onesie. You've heat it up. You
17:37
Speaker 1: heat it up in terms. I was like, you can't
17:40
Speaker 1: smell the man?
17:41
Speaker 5: Is that you?
17:43
Speaker 1: Some some not quite right?
17:44
Speaker 2: That's what it would probably smell like a port loop
17:47
Speaker 2: lit up on fire.
17:48
Speaker 1: I was like, bust to get outside. He was like
17:50
Speaker 1: what have I done? And I was like, you know
17:52
Speaker 1: it was you. And then finally Laura was like what
17:55
Speaker 1: the fuck is this? And I poor of me, poor,
18:00
Speaker 1: We're just trying to help out. You know, I've done
18:02
Speaker 1: a couple of loads of washing.
18:04
Speaker 4: You've made more work everyone.
18:05
Speaker 1: And then I staked the house out and there I
18:08
Speaker 1: am thinking, I'm getting closer to the finish line. I
18:11
Speaker 1: can right back at the start, start again, back at
18:13
Speaker 1: the start. And I was like, it's fine, it's fun.
18:16
Speaker 1: Just put it in the wardrobe all there. Oh, I
18:18
Speaker 1: will not so. Yeah, did you wash it? Oh you
18:21
Speaker 1: have to rewatch to rewatch right now, I'm rationing the
18:25
Speaker 1: fucking laundry desergent.
18:27
Speaker 2: Get the sheets, get the laundry sheets.
18:29
Speaker 1: My capsules, just really quickly. Not to harp on about
18:34
Speaker 1: me and my situation, you know, because it's not it's
18:37
Speaker 1: not about me. Let's don't. I don't want to be
18:40
Speaker 1: the victim here. But I just want to let people know,
18:43
Speaker 1: meet people aware that law has gone to India for
18:47
Speaker 1: eleven days and none is also another dollar, so you know,
18:51
Speaker 1: just I'm just doing what I can. I'm doing the best.
18:53
Speaker 2: Things your way the whole time. Think about that way.
18:55
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it all my way with no
18:57
Speaker 2: interruptions from anyone else trying to butty In should be
19:00
Speaker 2: smooth sailing if you ask me.
19:01
Speaker 1: How much she an Aladla for Nana's back. Another week
19:05
Speaker 1: she's gone.
19:05
Speaker 2: For there's nothing to do down there for that long.
19:08
Speaker 1: No, they're loving it. They're going to the wineries and
19:11
Speaker 1: they went for a walk to the harbor. They're having
19:14
Speaker 1: the time of their life.
19:15
Speaker 2: Who's they? Who got here?
19:17
Speaker 1: Helen's there out to Helen Lynn's there as well. Man,
19:23
Speaker 1: I want to go this, wait, Lynn went, I would
19:26
Speaker 1: have got it. So now I'm staring down the barrel,
19:29
Speaker 1: sit in the barrel of just it's me and the nanny, nana.
19:33
Speaker 1: It's very confusing your house. I know.
19:35
Speaker 2: It's just me, the nanny, the garden of the chef.
19:40
Speaker 2: We feel for you, thank you.
19:42
Speaker 1: I didn't do this.
19:43
Speaker 2: I did.
19:43
Speaker 1: I didn't do this to get the reaction like that.
19:46
Speaker 3: But if you know, solo parenting can be tough, it
19:48
Speaker 3: can be tough, but as Ash said, you can do
19:51
Speaker 3: it your way. I find sometimes when Dan's are here,
19:53
Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, now I can just do things like
19:55
Speaker 3: my way.
19:56
Speaker 2: Until down that will we if really she didn't mean it,
20:01
Speaker 2: but yeah, without it, without someone buttoning in, it's my
20:04
Speaker 2: way of the highway when mum's not there.
20:07
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, babe, it's just I feel like I feel
20:10
Speaker 1: like I'm going into battle.
20:12
Speaker 2: Good keep us updated. We're here and now we're feeling
20:14
Speaker 2: for you.
20:15
Speaker 4: I've got a hot tip though.
20:16
Speaker 3: I like to get the kids on side, so I
20:18
Speaker 3: preempt what's going to happen, and so I say, look,
20:21
Speaker 3: it's just mummy here, we're a team. It's two against one.
20:25
Speaker 3: You got to listen to me because I'm outnumbered.
20:29
Speaker 2: You talk to us like that, though, Are you talking
20:32
Speaker 2: to us?
20:32
Speaker 1: One man?
20:34
Speaker 2: You're like, I'm out numbered.
20:35
Speaker 1: Yeah you are.
20:35
Speaker 4: I use all my parenting hacks on you guys.
20:37
Speaker 2: You do your test amount on us. The other day
20:39
Speaker 2: you opened up your palms and you're like, I wonder
20:41
Speaker 2: what it would be like we got out of here
20:43
Speaker 2: on time.
20:43
Speaker 1: We were like cobra snakes that had been like hypnotized
20:46
Speaker 1: by that. What is it? Rick? Here on time? Ash?
20:56
Speaker 1: I also just before we are still in housekeeping for
20:58
Speaker 1: those who are playing long at home really quickly. I'm
21:01
Speaker 1: not sure if you've noticed, if you're aware of this
21:03
Speaker 1: type of behavior. I actually didn't know we were doing it,
21:06
Speaker 1: and so I think it's important that we can self reflect.
21:08
Speaker 1: We can learn what do you mean by weird or
21:09
Speaker 1: what we're doing? Well, it's more you. No, actually no,
21:12
Speaker 1: it's both of us. Sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
21:14
Speaker 2: I don't do anything wrong, Vick.
21:16
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if you've noticed that we are doing this,
21:19
Speaker 1: Ash and myself. We attack boomers. Oh yeah, okay, great, okay,
21:24
Speaker 1: what do you mean.
21:25
Speaker 2: That's not a bad thing, it's just part of life.
21:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know, And look they are.
21:30
Speaker 2: They want to play the victim.
21:31
Speaker 1: They're an easy target, and I just want to read
21:33
Speaker 1: out a lovely message that we receive from Melanie, who
21:36
Speaker 1: is in fact a boomer.
21:37
Speaker 2: That's not a boomer name though, Melanie, I know, so.
21:40
Speaker 1: Maybe she's cosplaying. Maybe she's changed her name because because
21:44
Speaker 1: she changed it from Barbara.
21:46
Speaker 2: Well, Barber's getting the run today.
21:48
Speaker 1: But Melanie says, I tell all my friends about you
21:51
Speaker 1: and my daughter's friends as I love your podcast, it's
21:54
Speaker 1: my favorite. I'm a boomer.
21:59
Speaker 2: I think that's what they should do.
22:01
Speaker 1: Stop winging.
22:02
Speaker 2: You're never going to combat it, you might as well
22:04
Speaker 2: own it.
22:04
Speaker 1: Well, she says, so please be gentle with your boomer criticisms.
22:09
Speaker 2: Okay, this is why I've got a problem with it.
22:11
Speaker 2: Oh god, Okay, you created the monster. We're pointing it out.
22:17
Speaker 1: I am the child of.
22:18
Speaker 2: Boomer parents who butt their nose in the business. That's
22:21
Speaker 2: not nothing to do. If you're getting grouped in with that,
22:24
Speaker 2: I apology.
22:24
Speaker 1: I can't generalize, ash, I can not the same. She
22:28
Speaker 1: just says, here, please go withasy on us. We're not
22:31
Speaker 1: all stuck in the sixties or seventies. Even though you
22:33
Speaker 1: bag the boomers. This is still my favorite podcast by far.
22:36
Speaker 1: Love from Melanie XX.
22:39
Speaker 2: Look if we stopped, this show would lose its charm.
22:42
Speaker 1: Melanie. I to be honest. I love I love you, Crawler,
22:46
Speaker 1: I love you. I love that we have you.
22:51
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll admit it. I take the piece out of
22:54
Speaker 2: boomers because because I can doesn't mean I don't love you. Well,
22:57
Speaker 2: look that doesn't mean I don't love you.
22:58
Speaker 1: I'm the yink to your yang. So whilst you attack them,
23:01
Speaker 1: I always finish it off with a bit of you know,
23:03
Speaker 1: with a softer like.
23:05
Speaker 2: You'll finish them off with a softer water.
23:07
Speaker 1: Le's have to touch, nice, have to touch. It's like you
23:10
Speaker 1: you like knock past them on the footpath and then
23:13
Speaker 1: I turn around and go, I'm so sorry.
23:14
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry about him, so sorry he's stuck in
23:16
Speaker 2: his waist. Yeah, he's technically a pre boomer. I'm pre
23:19
Speaker 2: booming over here.
23:20
Speaker 1: Because before we know it, we're going to be fucking boomer.
23:23
Speaker 1: I know, I know. It's not it's not.
23:24
Speaker 2: It's one of those things where it's like we'll make
23:26
Speaker 2: fun of you because it's as as like endearment.
23:30
Speaker 1: It's because we love you. There it is nice and toxic,
23:33
Speaker 1: so nice and toxic.
23:35
Speaker 2: I'm not always right, but I'm never wrong.
23:38
Speaker 1: Actually, Ash, oh, now you're gonna pump me out after that.
23:42
Speaker 1: I always pop you up. You're a great friend, a
23:45
Speaker 1: great guy, you better dad, and an amazing podcaster. Wow,
23:49
Speaker 1: put that on there, so that whole thing. But I'll
23:52
Speaker 1: take it. I feel like you need to get better
23:55
Speaker 1: at compliments.
23:55
Speaker 2: I'm no good at that. I am no good. I'm
23:57
Speaker 2: good at giving them, not to you, I'm good at
24:02
Speaker 2: I am good at giving them in subtle ways. That's
24:05
Speaker 2: a I would say it's not a strength.
24:07
Speaker 1: Well, but I can't. I can't. I hate it. Here's
24:10
Speaker 1: one for you. Get comfortable, because we want to say, here,

26:59
Speaker 1: The morning I love it.

27:05
Speaker 2: I don't mind. I don't mind a coudle in the
27:06
Speaker 2: morning if they come in, and if they come in
27:08
Speaker 2: at two or three in the morning, it's usually my
27:11
Speaker 2: back that's a pincushion. It's just like it's like oscar Is.
27:16
Speaker 2: He runs all day and then he falls asleep and
27:18
Speaker 2: he runs in his sleep. I wonder what he's running from.
27:21
Speaker 1: How's April.
27:22
Speaker 2: She's like sleeping next to her dead body. She doesn't move,
27:25
Speaker 2: she doesn't move. Her mom, my mother in law, married
27:28
Speaker 2: to the chatter. She is a great boom, isn't it
27:31
Speaker 2: just had the same fringe since she was a toddler,
27:34
Speaker 2: like same style hair. And I said to April, you
27:37
Speaker 2: escaped it. I don't know how you escaped. She had
27:39
Speaker 2: it for like a brief period, like when she was
27:42
Speaker 2: really really young. But April's mom still has it. If
27:44
Speaker 2: she tied a hairbag, I wouldn't recognize it. I wouldn't
27:47
Speaker 2: know who, oh, who were you? She's not that old.
27:54
Speaker 1: She's on her sixties.
27:55
Speaker 2: So April went away with her mum and brother years ago,
27:58
Speaker 2: and her mom comes up to me and she was
27:59
Speaker 2: like shared a bed in this hotel, and she said,
28:04
Speaker 2: have you noticed anything about your wife's sleep happened? I
28:08
Speaker 2: was like, what she was like, she falls asleep immediately
28:11
Speaker 2: is one, and then she doesn't move when she gets
28:13
Speaker 2: out of the bed, or she has to fold the
28:15
Speaker 2: sheet back over and carry on with a laugh. She's like,
28:17
Speaker 2: we didn't even need like the room to be made up.
28:19
Speaker 2: It's so perfect.
28:20
Speaker 1: That's the dream, though, isn't it. It is decides having
28:23

Speaker 2: I make it. I make my kids work for it.
31:50
Speaker 2: Sometimes yeah, I'm like, like, there's a big difference between

34:39
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, I'm just gonna have to go
34:40
Speaker 2: to the doctor in the morning. And it progressively got
34:43
Speaker 2: worse and worse and worse to the point where it
34:46
Speaker 2: was unbearable. And I said to April, I was really upset. Actually,
34:51
Speaker 2: I was really upset because it was we had pre
34:53
Speaker 2: planned sex on the cards, and I was like, not now,

36:23
Speaker 2: I got through it and they sat me down, took
36:26
Speaker 2: my blood pressure off one seventy seven over eighty two

37:03
Speaker 2: through all that and I took the oxy cotton and
37:06
Speaker 2: they're like, okay, so you just wait in the waiting
37:08
Speaker 2: room for a doctor to see you, but you have

37:52
Speaker 2: but I had forgotten until after I've taken the oxy cotton.
37:56

Speaker 1: She's like, oh, it was just as I swing by,
46:27

47:31
Speaker 2: Rich had the kids on you. It's that park. I
47:35
Speaker 2: don't even know who Rich was, and he's like dropping
47:38
Speaker 2: dropping your kids. So this was a drop and go park.
47:40
Speaker 1: It's the best so far. It's pretty easy having no kids,
47:44
Speaker 1: I would say he's asleep and TV.
47:46
Speaker 2: I used to have a nap at that time.
47:48
Speaker 1: So I want to say thank to the parents who
47:50
Speaker 1: have been helping me out.
47:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good. It's rare to find people that are
47:54
Speaker 2: like offer and actually genuinely.
47:56
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're going home being like, can
47:58
Speaker 1: you believe Maddie Ja let me with his kids? They're
48:01
Speaker 1: on their podcast and a half for two and a
48:03
Speaker 1: half hours. What a fucking bar. I know they're on their.
48:05
Speaker 2: Podcast, Prick, they're on their Podcason, you're not going to
48:07
Speaker 2: believe this.
48:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, that guy, Maddie J.
48:09
Speaker 2: He just offloads his kids and people at the park something.
48:12
Speaker 1: It's the first time it's ever happened, so called parent
48:16
Speaker 1: and it just so happened to be the one time
48:17
Speaker 1: where like Laura is not.
48:18
Speaker 2: Here perfect and you take and you took credit. That's
48:21
Speaker 2: that's something I would do.
48:22
Speaker 1: But to the parents out there, we do it more often.
48:25
Speaker 1: I think I think the village, it's the village.
48:28
Speaker 2: Keep going back to that park. That's my advice for you, Matt.
48:31
Speaker 1: That's called smart parenting.
48:33
Speaker 2: Thank you. Now have a segment for other smart parents.
48:35
Speaker 2: So this segment is where you're write in and tell
48:38
Speaker 2: us about your parenting hack or you're being a smart parent.
48:41
Speaker 2: So should we kick off?
48:42
Speaker 1: Please you go first.
48:43
Speaker 2: This was from Amy, Thank god I can pronounce that one.
48:46
Speaker 2: We got a robovac useless and told the children it's magic.
48:51
Speaker 2: He's obsessed with it now, so we're telling him the
48:53
Speaker 2: robot made it when we cooked dinner, especially veggies, and
48:57
Speaker 2: he thinks it's amazing and eats it way more.
48:59
Speaker 1: I swear I've heard before that parents have said the
49:02
Speaker 1: robo vac will eat you if you're you're at nighttime.
49:07
Speaker 1: It goes out looking for naughty kids. That's why, Like
49:10
Speaker 1: that's traumatic. If it more scary, that.
49:14
Speaker 4: Will send your kids straight into your bed.
49:16
Speaker 1: Yeah right, so that's I mean, there's as much more wholesome.
49:19
Speaker 1: That's beautiful.
49:19
Speaker 2: My kids just when it's on, they just can't stop
49:22
Speaker 2: staring at it.
49:23
Speaker 1: It's beautiful, like look at it.
49:25
Speaker 2: Go. I'm like, you've got a dog that's the same thing,
49:27
Speaker 2: walks around cleaning up shit off the ground.
49:29
Speaker 1: From ella ella, ella ella, and so on and so forth.
49:34
Speaker 1: Kids keep taking food and holding rubbish in their rooms.
49:37
Speaker 1: No food in the bedroom. That's my fucking rule, I
49:40
Speaker 1: tell you that right now, And I.
49:41
Speaker 2: Keep finding tiny tea packets in Macy's bed stuck in
49:45
Speaker 2: the word.
49:46
Speaker 1: So I say, you'll end up with a mouse in
49:49
Speaker 1: your room. Then I continue to show them what a
49:51
Speaker 1: scary mouse looks like. It terrifies them enough to clean
49:53
Speaker 1: their room, and once they slip up, make mouse poof
49:56
Speaker 1: from black food, dye and rice and sprinkle it in
50:00
Speaker 1: their bed and bedroom and their favorite toys over night.
50:03
Speaker 1: I funk, this is so good. I can assure you
50:05
Speaker 1: that there will be no nagging and no arguments to
50:08
Speaker 1: clean their room. I love how like the commitment, Like yeah,
50:11
Speaker 1: like the prop department. You become parent who specializes in
50:14
Speaker 1: props prop making. You become so creative you're there making
50:18
Speaker 1: individual mouse poos.
50:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know I've said this before on the pop.
50:22
Speaker 2: My dad used to say, if I don't put my
50:24
Speaker 2: dishes away, they'd be he put them in my bed,
50:27
Speaker 2: and he did he did. Yeah. Yeah, I never did
50:29
Speaker 2: it again because I got wind get into bed one
50:31
Speaker 2: cold night and I was like, what the fuck?
50:33
Speaker 1: Spaghinny, you got a good name.
50:39
Speaker 2: It would be like Apricot chicken.
50:42
Speaker 1: I love apricot chicken. Oh my god.
50:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, mummy, I feel like Mum used to make that
50:47
Speaker 2: on rotation as torch and I thought you're about to
50:49
Speaker 2: see mummy.
50:49
Speaker 6: I was like, Mummy, Caitlin, they did that with a K,
50:54
Speaker 6: with a k not many. If your kids only want
50:58
Speaker 6: playing pasta, check crack an egg and mix a few
51:03
Speaker 6: egg yolks into the pasta while it's still hot on
51:06
Speaker 6: the stove in the water.
51:09
Speaker 1: No, surely not. Come on, ask well, how are you
51:12
Speaker 1: cooking your past like a cabinara. They put, oh, you
51:14
Speaker 1: mix it in. They put an egg yolk in the
51:16
Speaker 1: cab It makes.
51:16
Speaker 2: The pasta creamier, you can't taste it. Plus it adds
51:20
Speaker 2: extra nutrients so you can feel less guilty about plain pasta.
51:26
Speaker 1: And then you sprinkle on a bit of protin on
51:28
Speaker 1: top aprils, just put some chicken breapt on. My kids
51:32
Speaker 1: did find it.
51:32
Speaker 2: I tried to put butter in there the other day
51:34
Speaker 2: and they're like, what is this.
51:37
Speaker 1: You can't find your shoes, but you can find butter.
51:39
Speaker 1: But surely the kids that's a treat. My kids that
51:42
Speaker 1: lurpak Oscar's like. Then then want that all right?
51:45
Speaker 2: Then you taste it to me?
51:48
Speaker 1: A bit of butter on the pasta with a little
51:52
Speaker 1: bit of salt far out. That's the backbone of parenting.
51:56
Speaker 1: That's the good stuff. Okay, the fourth one and the
51:59
Speaker 1: last that we have and also sad news, this is
52:02
Speaker 1: the last one we'll have for this segment. But Jericha, Jericha, Jericha.
52:11
Speaker 1: That it's got to be. Where's RNs, R and S
52:14
Speaker 1: are pretty close together on the keypad. That's gotta be Jessica.
52:17
Speaker 1: Jess Jessica was like, I don't want I want to
52:20
Speaker 1: be different. But also if your name is Jerika, beautiful
52:23
Speaker 1: name as well, like I love, it couldn't possibly be Jericha.
52:29
Speaker 1: It can't be.
52:30
Speaker 2: Look at us it is.
52:31
Speaker 4: It's Jericha.

Speaker 1: Okay, this is from Jerika. Eighteen month old won't eat
