So we've got a pink 189 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: tree as well, which is all candy cane and whatever. 190 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: And then we've also got a disco ball tree, which 191 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 2: is just the tree that we had when we were 192 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: in the apartment. 193 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 3: So we got some many trees. 194 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 2: But the thing is the thing that I wanted to 195 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 2: say is this year I was advocating for putting that 196 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: fucking tree up in September. Let me tell y'all, we're 197 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: in the week of Christmas. I'm fucking over it soon. 198 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 3: I'm fucking over it. 199 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 2: And I feel like as well, my birthday being in October, 200 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: I was like, it doesn't feel like my birthday because 201 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: I didn't feel like my birthday for a multitude of reasons, 202 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: Like it was just like I didn't really do anything 203 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 2: for it, and when I did, it was last minute, 204 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: and then like no one could come because everyone was busy. 205 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 3: So it was just like really weird. 206 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: And as I spoke about on the podcast, like doing 207 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 2: that day was like weird because I was like hosting 208 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 2: the events, I wasn't really enjoying myself. Not that I 209 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: didn't enjoy myself, and I just felt like I couldn't 210 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: get around to everyone and have quality time with people, 211 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 2: and that's important to me. 212 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: So it was just a really bizarre birthday. 213 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: But I also felt like we were celebrating my birthday 214 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: and that Christmas tree was already up in the house 215 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 2: and all the decorations and stuff. So I even tried 216 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 2: to put up another Christmas tree, like a light up 217 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 2: Christmas tree. I bought like a four and a half 218 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: meter light up Christmas tree. It was to go in 219 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 2: the front yard, but it was too big, so I 220 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 2: put it in the backyard. Well one guster window. That 221 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: shit snapped enough. And I'm just like, it's all gone 222 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 2: downhill lately with the whole Christmas thing. And then I 223 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: also got too busy. I bought all these things for 224 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: my bookshelves as well in the library to decorate it all, 225 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: and haven't had any time to even think about redecorating that. 226 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: So I haven't done it properly. And I think next year, 227 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 2: I think I will just wait. I still think November's 228 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 2: a good time to do it, like first weekend of November, definitely, 229 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: but I think I want to enjoy it in a 230 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: shorter burst. Whereas my my thinking behind it was Christmas 231 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: is like my favorite time of year. I want to 232 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: enjoy it for as long as possible. Nah, I'm over it. 233 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 2: It's too much. 234 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: It's too long. See. We have no Christmas tree up 235 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: this year because it's in the Office of Fate Fade, 236 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: because we did our Dan Murphy's collab and for the 237 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: last video aj put up the Christmas tree, so I 238 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: don't have any tree at my house because it's here 239 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: in the office. 240 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 3: Is that sad? 241 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: No?

I filmed a whole series of 354 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 2: unboxing every single one, putting it all together, lighting it up, 355 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: playing the music, all the rest of it. And I 356 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: actually just decided not to post it for two reasons. One, 357 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 2: it wasn't as exciting as I had hoped, because you 358 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: pretty much just pulled them out of the box and 359 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: they're ready to go. Like I thought you'd be putting 360 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 2: it together, almost like a lego, and it wasn't like 361 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: that at all, And so I filmed the whole thing 362 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: and then I went, I don't really think there's any point, 363 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: Like I'm just like unboxing them. 364 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 3: It's not that fun. 365 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: And also I didn't want people to be bitching about 366 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: the fact that they're so expensive. 367 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: Well I think that's actually probably kind of a smart 368 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: thing because just quite literally, in the last like two weeks, 369 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: did you see that Jacqueline Hill went. 370 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: Viral, Yes, for not being relatable enough or something. She 371 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: was crying about getting no views and everyone was like, yeah, 372 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: because you're unboxing three thousand dollars handbags. 373 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: But actually, so I feel like the Internet is becoming 374 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: more and more like that, understandably, but especially for influencers 375 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: like Jacqueline Hill, and I know Mikayla as well, Like 376 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: I saw videos of her getting professionals to come and 377 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: organize her wardrobe and the amount of stuff that she had, 378 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: Like everyone's just going off, yeah, but I mean you 379 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: having a couple of little Christmas battery operated things is 380 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: a bit different to someone having a house full of Chanel. Yeah, 381 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: but I feel the internet is kind of becoming that way. 382 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll see how Jacqueline Hill goes.

Of course, we're going to have those people 416 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 1: that have been with us since day one and will 417 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: continue to support, but it's almost like, if you really 418 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: want to stay super relevant, like she was complaining she's 419 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 1: not getting the views, it's almost like you need to 420 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: then cater to that younger generation of audiences that are 421 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: obsessed in the way that our OG audiences were. But 422 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: when you're in your thirties and going into forties, it's 423 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: kind of hard to do that, Yeah, because you're becoming 424 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: a millennial boomer. Yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah, 425 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: it's really interesting. 426 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 3: I just act like I'm like twenty three. 427 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, or you can do that too, you know what 428 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 1: I mean. 429 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 3: Like, I just like, but then if. 430 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: You're like Jacqueline Hill and you're in a big mansion 431 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: with a snare drob full of Chanelle, it's obvious that 432 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: you're not twenty anymore. 433 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 2: What I'm so interested by is I mean, I guess 434 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 2: Jaquelin Hill is a little bit different.

Oh my god, I was earning 449 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 2: so much money because like I was one of few. 450 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 2: There was like me and two other people who were 451 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: non binary who you could book to do the work 452 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: for you. So there was lots of money to be had. 453 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 2: Now if we had World Pride today, I mean in 454 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: the last three or four years, how many new queer people. 455 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: The thing that more people come to life, like the 456 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: younger ones, eighteen year olds, and then they've got the 457 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: young audience, so like the market is just becoming massive. 458 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then on top of that, like brands just 459 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 2: pay less because people I think like as well. A 460 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: big change has been that, you know five ten years ago, 461 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 2: I mean there'd be people who did things for free, 462 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 2: but most people didn't do anything for free. We didn't 463 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 2: have things like UGC creators.

That's not gonna 510 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: last forever. And I can imagine it would be hard 511 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: to fathom that because when you're at the peak of 512 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: fame and earning millions of dollars and getting millions of views, 513 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 1: like you just get this weird sense of self and 514 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: think that that's the way it's always going to be. 515 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: But the reality not even just for influencers, but for 516 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: businesses as well, Like I think this all the time 517 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: about fate. One day fate is going to end, like it's. 518 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 3: Going to come would be God forbid tomorrow. 519 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all gonna come crashing down and I'm gonna 520 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: have to be there to watch it, you know.

Yeah, and one day 525 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: it's going to come crushing and burning. And I think 526 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: influences and even just people like me, we need to 527 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: be realistic about this stuff. And I be like, no, 528 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: how could this happen? I used to make millions of dollars. Yeah, 529 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: because that's the reality of life, isn't it? 530 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 2: Well for sure? And I think that that's I think 531 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 2: that's why. I just I think that's why. I mean, obviously, 532 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 2: if everything went away tomorrow, I'd be crushed.

I think 603 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: if I had kept going at it and kept doing 604 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 1: my YouTube videos and worked harder and did more deals, 605 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: I would have been able to earn more than half 606 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: a million a year.

It was a 681 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: house called Graceland. If anyone's from like Newcastle, area you 682 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: probably remember it, and it was this big mansion house 683 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: and this old couple lived there and every year that 684 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: they would like do up the whole house, same thing 685 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: like in their garage. It was like a village thing 686 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: in every window. They're on a corner block, so it 687 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: was like around the whole side of the house too. 688 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: In every window there was a different setting, like the 689 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: news would be there every year, food trucks down the 690 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: whole street, and that was like one of my most 691 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: exciting memories.

Two other favorite memories royal flushes of mine 694 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: are just when we were little and not being able 695 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: to go to sleep because you knew Santa was coming. 696 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: And then like when my mum and dad were together 697 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: when we were really little, my sister and I would 698 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: sleep in the same room because we were just so excited, 699 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: and we'd like try to look down the hallway because 700 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: you could see the Christmas tree at the end of 701 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: the hallway, and we'd wake up in the night and 702 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: try and look in the darkness, and we'd get yelled 703 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: at because we were like making noise but I think 704 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: I can see a bye. And you know what, another 705 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: like fun Christmas memory of mine is actually when my 706 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: mum and dad divorced and my dad remarried, so we 707 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: got two Christmases nice and I used to think that 708 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: that was the best thing ever because I get double 709 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: the present and so like we would wake up and 710 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: do like Christmas Morning at Mum's house, for example, and 711 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: lunch and then in like that would be so exciting 712 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: because we'd get presents off Mom and Nan and you know, 713 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: that side of the family, and then have lunch and 714 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: the prawns, which is obviously my royal flush of Christmas 715 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: is prawns. But then you'd get to go to Dad 716 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: and Jackie's house and do it all again with that 717 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: whole side of the family and like my whole step family. 718 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: So it just felt like double the fun, double the gifts, 719 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: and double the good times. But royal flush overall of 720 00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: Christmas is just prawns and swimming. I just love summer. 721 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm really excited for summer. 722 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 2: The only thing I don't love is the bushfires, not 723 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 2: only because obviously devastating, but I don't know, if you 724 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 2: can hear my voice, it's fading really really quickly, so 725 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 2: we better wrap this up now. At the start of 726 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 2: this episode, you were saying you're going to tell us 727 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 2: something exciting about day. 728 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: So this isn't a big business episode, but we'll keep 729 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: it short. Because of Black Friday, Boxing Day isn't special anymore, 730 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: would you agree, Like if you remember when we were kids, 731 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: and it would be like, you're going to Westfield for 732 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: Boxing Day sales because they were like the biggest sales 733 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: of the year. Obviously that's been ruined by Black Friday, 734 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: which is fine and fair. But what we're doing for 735 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: Fate we still do a Fate Boxing Day sale every year, 736 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: especially because we've got the stores.
