Guys. Maybe you've 5 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,559 Speaker 1: heard about this, maybe you haven't. And sometimes, you know, 6 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: approaching this time of the year, there can be a 7 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 1: lot of change. I do think in relationships sometimes you 8 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: hang on for Christmas because you think, oh, it's too 9 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: hard to factor in a break up at this point. 10 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,959 Speaker 2: Well, the other thing is, well, winter's over now, you 11 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 2: know what I mean. You need someone to cuddle for winter. 12 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: Winter is coming. And then when it starts to warm up, Kate, 13 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 2: it stops off. 14 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 3: And down the beach Hot girl, summer story of my life. 15 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard of the orange peel theory? I've 16 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: never heard it be the. 17 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: Gym orange theory. 18 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: I've never heard of it before. But I absolutely, hands down, 19 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: I think this is the real deal. There's a woman 20 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: on TikTok. Her name is Jenna, and she likes to 21 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: bake somethinking, Oh I love you, I like already, Jenna, 22 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: He's the woman of my dream. She posted a video 23 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: where she said that her boyfriend knows that she needs 24 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: egg whites a lot for her baking. Okay, so do 25 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: you know what he gifted her? Or just did willy 26 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: nilly in the house one day so she could access 27 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: the egg whites much more easily when she's baking. He 28 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: just separated a dozen eggs into whites and to yolks 29 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: and put them back in the carton. So she just 30 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: had twelve whites to use when she was doing the baking. 31 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 1: Don't they go off? 32 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: Don't you have to use them straight away? 33 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 1: Maybe he knew that she was doing the baking the 34 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: next day because the next day was Tuesday, and he 35 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: remembers that stuff about her. 36 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 2: I don't get the point to the story. 37 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: You're not playing along. What I'm saying is everybody else 38 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: then jumped in and said, oh my goodness, Jenna, do 39 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: you know what that is? That is a prime example 40 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: of the orange peel theory. 41 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: No, but it's egg whites. It's got nothing to do 42 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: with orange peel. 43 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: Don't get involved anymore. The people who are listening love 44 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: this stuff. 45 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: Sorry, man, is this a citrus cake? No? Who were? Okay, 46 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: I'm so confused. 47 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to say is the orange peel theory 48 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: is your partner doing little things for you that may 49 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: seem very small, but in the whole, in actual fact, 50 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: they're actually really big. And I don't even know why 51 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: I'm getting emotional talking about this, because it's it's not 52 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: like big, you. 53 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: Know, over the top handbag. 54 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: No, it's not over the top. It's not over the 55 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: top handbags. It could be just the thought. There was 56 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: one woman that jumped on this chat and she said 57 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: that her partner, when they've got into bed, sometimes gets 58 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: up and switches the bedroom light out because she's already 59 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: comfy in bed. That's also the orange peel theory. Will 60 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: your partner bother to do one of those little things 61 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: for you when you could easily do it yourself? 62 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 2: Do you know what I am? 63 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 3: I it's emotional to do it. This is an emotional topic. 64 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 3: Do you know Tom did the other day he realized 65 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: that Inger sometimes her banana gets bruised. It's not a metaphor. 66 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: Tom realized he saw a plastic banana case, so banana 67 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: doesn't get bruised, and you bought that for Inger and 68 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 3: then made sure that her banana. 69 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: Doesn't get bruised. 70 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 2: And do you know the bana? She nearly cried, That's. 71 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: What I mean. It's the tiny it's the tiny little things. 72 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: Because if you have a partner who buys your flowers 73 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: and expensive handbags but won't buy you a container so 74 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: your banana doesn't get bruised, it's not It's not the 75 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: same level of intimacy or care. 76 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: What if banana has never looked better? 77 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 3: Guys, it's if you're doing these things but your partner 78 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 3: doesn't recognize them. 79 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: It's but s this is is just the problem today. 80 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 2: This is the problem that you have. 81 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: The problem that you have is that you do them 82 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: and you make everybody around you aware of what you've done. 83 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 3: You do if you if you own and knew what 84 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 3: I do without saying anything, But. 85 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: You're not going to believe we only notice the bab. 86 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: Do them for you? 87 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: Hear about it. 88 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 2: I don't do them for you. I don't do them 89 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: for you. I do them for my wife all the time. 90 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: But well, that's really nice. I said to Tom. You 91 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: nearly cried in the office the other day when I 92 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: had my mental breakdown and I was cleaning. 93 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: Oh you were you on that diceon was one of 94 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: the greatest things I've ever seen. 95 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: And Tom, I was worried about you because your board 96 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: is over my desk, and I don't feel like you 97 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: have enough room in there, so we moved the couch 98 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: slightly further down the window, so you might even have 99 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: just an extra twenty centimeters to orange pills. 100 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: That's my desk. 101 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 3: So you got emotional the other day when I said 102 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: to you because FITZI said that I have to talk 103 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: about them and tell everybody that when we put the 104 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 3: kids to bed, I'm often downstairs before Lisa is finally 105 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 3: finished with Francesca. 106 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: This is a perfect example. 107 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: So I make sure that by the time she gets 108 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: down next to her chair where she sits, there's a 109 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: cup of tea ready and waiting. 110 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 2: And you thought, oh my god, that's amazing. 111 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: Someone did that.

That could possibly be the 117 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: greatest day in my whole life. 118 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 2: Wow.
