0:00:23.281 --> 0:00:26.961
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back to another episode of Am I a Bad Mum? Podcast?

0:00:27.161 --> 0:00:31.201
<v Speaker 2>Just quickly to start. Literally before we hit record on

0:00:31.281 --> 0:00:35.761
<v Speaker 2>this podcast, Rate got a message from message can you

0:00:35.801 --> 0:00:36.120
<v Speaker 2>play it?

0:00:36.521 --> 0:00:39.721
<v Speaker 1>I can play it. I'm not sure that this will anyway.

0:00:39.760 --> 0:00:41.840
<v Speaker 1>That's fine. I'll turn it right up so we can

0:00:41.881 --> 0:00:44.961
<v Speaker 1>hear it all. Hi, Mum, it's racy. I found my lunchbox.

0:00:45.001 --> 0:00:47.001
<v Speaker 1>It was at the bag rep the whole time. God,

0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:48.641
<v Speaker 1>I love you to have much podcast.

0:00:48.681 --> 0:00:55.001
<v Speaker 2>Don't say anything embarrassing. I've just had a really good idea.

0:00:55.241 --> 0:00:57.321
<v Speaker 2>I genuinely think this is a really good idea for

0:00:57.401 --> 0:01:01.201
<v Speaker 2>you because obviously, as we know, your husband, Sam thy

0:01:01.281 --> 0:01:03.361
<v Speaker 2>Day is currently on I'm a Celebrity, Get me out

0:01:03.401 --> 0:01:07.081
<v Speaker 2>of here, so he's potentially going to be away for

0:01:07.361 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>six weeks, and it's been a long time, and Gracie

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:14.121
<v Speaker 2>started high school. Why don't you get them each day

0:01:14.481 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 2>to do a little diary in to your little journal

0:01:17.241 --> 0:01:20.481
<v Speaker 2>of what happened in their day so that he can

0:01:20.481 --> 0:01:21.601
<v Speaker 2>read it or when it gets back.

0:01:22.161 --> 0:01:23.640
<v Speaker 1>That's a great idea.

0:01:23.241 --> 0:01:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Because what's made me laugh also is that we're watching

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:31.241
<v Speaker 2>him on TV, you know, swimming in the creek, just

0:01:31.521 --> 0:01:34.920
<v Speaker 2>like lots of downtime, Like there's a lot of just

0:01:35.081 --> 0:01:40.321
<v Speaker 2>sitting around meantime. Rach in this period of the two

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 2>weeks that he's been away, has caught a snake in

0:01:43.761 --> 0:01:47.200
<v Speaker 2>their house, has been on the ride on mower.

0:01:48.001 --> 0:01:52.121
<v Speaker 1>Honestly, Katie, I do watch elements of him sitting around,

0:01:52.401 --> 0:01:55.681
<v Speaker 1>swimming in the creek, having relay races in the creek.

0:01:56.721 --> 0:02:00.561
<v Speaker 1>I'm at home capturing fucking baby pythons inside the house.

0:02:01.521 --> 0:02:05.561
<v Speaker 1>In the same afternoon, had our front and gate break.

0:02:06.041 --> 0:02:08.241
<v Speaker 1>I can't get caught in or out, don't know how

0:02:08.281 --> 0:02:10.321
<v Speaker 1>to fix it. Then your car breaks down. Then my

0:02:10.401 --> 0:02:14.081
<v Speaker 1>car just decides not working. The coffee machine broke, and

0:02:14.121 --> 0:02:17.761
<v Speaker 1>then the lovely man goes, oh, so the cockcroaches have

0:02:17.841 --> 0:02:20.281
<v Speaker 1>eaten both boards, and the both boards go together, and

0:02:20.321 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 1>then I'm going, now the coffee machine's broken. I see

0:02:23.001 --> 0:02:25.561
<v Speaker 1>coffee machines broken. That's going to like literally cut my throat.

0:02:25.601 --> 0:02:26.561
<v Speaker 2>Are you just having me on?

0:02:26.601 --> 0:02:28.881
<v Speaker 1>And he's like nah, So we had that. Then I

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:31.960
<v Speaker 1>was just like sitting there like a shell of human.

0:02:32.041 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 1>And the girl's like, mom, why are you not excited

0:02:34.441 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 1>to watch Dad in the jungle?

0:02:37.721 --> 0:02:49.921
<v Speaker 2>The camera should be here? Am I a bad mum

0:02:50.041 --> 0:02:51.641
<v Speaker 2>for obsessing over boys.

0:02:52.001 --> 0:02:56.241
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Katie, Wow, obsessing about boys for your girls or

0:02:56.281 --> 0:02:57.361
<v Speaker 1>just like boys in general.

0:02:57.721 --> 0:03:02.481
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, it's not me. Oh I think about boys married.

0:03:02.641 --> 0:03:08.041
<v Speaker 2>But the girls have got their semi formal coming up. Yeah,

0:03:08.121 --> 0:03:13.401
<v Speaker 2>so I have had non stop messages about dresses, about

0:03:13.401 --> 0:03:16.921
<v Speaker 2>hair and makeup and now right, so send you a

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.641
<v Speaker 2>message saying who can we hire a dress off? And

0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:23.881
<v Speaker 2>you sent me a bunch of suggestions. Hair and makeup's booked.

0:03:24.361 --> 0:03:28.401
<v Speaker 2>And now they don't have dates, and so they're like, mum,

0:03:28.441 --> 0:03:30.321
<v Speaker 2>we don't have a date, Like, who are we going

0:03:30.361 --> 0:03:33.921
<v Speaker 2>to go to the semi formal with everyone's taking a boy?

0:03:34.161 --> 0:03:36.841
<v Speaker 1>Is it their semi or is it someone else's? It's theirs?

0:03:37.561 --> 0:03:39.201
<v Speaker 1>So in my head I was like, oh, they must

0:03:39.241 --> 0:03:42.401
<v Speaker 1>be going to somebody else's semis as a date. No,

0:03:42.761 --> 0:03:43.801
<v Speaker 1>automatically went there.

0:03:43.921 --> 0:03:47.361
<v Speaker 2>No, it's their school's one, right, yeah, and so they

0:03:47.441 --> 0:03:50.521
<v Speaker 2>need a date. But the problem is is that they

0:03:50.601 --> 0:03:54.081
<v Speaker 2>don't have boyfriends, and they don't even really have many

0:03:54.201 --> 0:03:56.681
<v Speaker 2>boys that they talk to because the way how it

0:03:56.721 --> 0:03:59.161
<v Speaker 2>works these days, right, just to bring it up to speed,

0:03:59.841 --> 0:04:03.361
<v Speaker 2>it is all on snapchat. So boys just add people

0:04:03.441 --> 0:04:07.281
<v Speaker 2>on Snapchat from friends of friends or whatever. That's how

0:04:07.321 --> 0:04:11.720
<v Speaker 2>it works. It's like a very modern day like online dating.

0:04:12.361 --> 0:04:15.521
<v Speaker 1>Like a very quick exchange too. Like the snaps last

0:04:15.641 --> 0:04:18.161
<v Speaker 1>long or is it like do you record yourself talking

0:04:18.201 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 1>to the camera or like don't. It's not like FaceTime,

0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:22.921
<v Speaker 1>is it. It's not like you and I join a

0:04:23.041 --> 0:04:27.041
<v Speaker 1>chat to chat. It's like they snap myself, send it

0:04:27.081 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>to you snap yourself, Like yeah, do you get to

0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:30.681
<v Speaker 1>know someone like that? Yeah?

0:04:30.721 --> 0:04:33.721
<v Speaker 2>From what I understand, it's messages.

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:35.761
<v Speaker 1>So like oh yeah, yeah, yeah, so.

0:04:35.681 --> 0:04:38.521
<v Speaker 2>You send messages. They also do a lot of voice notes.

0:04:38.921 --> 0:04:42.361
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, that wasn't something that we ever did voice

0:04:42.361 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 2>notes like this is news. I'm very much like, just

0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.241
<v Speaker 2>pick up the phone and call someone, like the voice

0:04:49.241 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 2>notes that go back on forward, So just phone them.

0:04:54.961 --> 0:04:57.561
<v Speaker 2>And then it's the random photos. So you just send

0:04:57.601 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 2>photos because you have to keep you snapscore up.

0:04:59.521 --> 0:05:01.961
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Look, I have heard of the snapscore only through

0:05:02.001 --> 0:05:05.121
<v Speaker 1>you the wall or the curtain. Just keep the score up.

0:05:05.161 --> 0:05:09.481
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, or mom in a pajamas rach. I have moments

0:05:09.481 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 2>where I'm like, do you just take a photo of me?

0:05:11.001 --> 0:05:13.721
<v Speaker 2>And they're like yeah, like all caught off guard, like

0:05:13.761 --> 0:05:16.241
<v Speaker 2>I'm not smiling or anything. I'm like, who are you

0:05:16.281 --> 0:05:17.841
<v Speaker 2>sending that to? Oh?

0:05:18.561 --> 0:05:21.441
<v Speaker 1>Why? And he lives like on the other side of

0:05:21.481 --> 0:05:25.081
<v Speaker 1>Brisbane and there's you just just me and my pajamas

0:05:25.161 --> 0:05:27.841
<v Speaker 1>why and pictures of me?

0:05:28.641 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 2>And I must look surprised too, because all of a sudden,

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:32.961
<v Speaker 2>like I turn around and I'm like, you just take a

0:05:33.001 --> 0:05:35.561
<v Speaker 2>photo of me. I'm like, you don't even let me

0:05:35.681 --> 0:05:38.161
<v Speaker 2>tag you on Instagram when I put stuff up of

0:05:38.241 --> 0:05:44.481
<v Speaker 2>like just photos Amelia Amelia has and I don't know

0:05:44.521 --> 0:05:47.440
<v Speaker 2>how you do this some setting on Instagram where I

0:05:47.601 --> 0:05:48.841
<v Speaker 2>can't even tack her.

0:05:49.041 --> 0:05:51.361
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I'm not even allowed to. Yeah, yeah you can

0:05:51.401 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>do that, but can other people?

0:05:52.801 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Can other people tag her?

0:05:54.401 --> 0:05:56.281
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? I think she just I think it's like a

0:05:57.041 --> 0:06:00.161
<v Speaker 1>generic like no one can tag you or everyone can

0:06:00.201 --> 0:06:00.681
<v Speaker 1>tag you.

0:06:01.001 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 2>It's not just like me.

0:06:03.201 --> 0:06:05.801
<v Speaker 1>I think I could be wrong. I'll have to get

0:06:05.841 --> 0:06:08.601
<v Speaker 1>onto my social media gal and ask her. But I

0:06:08.601 --> 0:06:11.161
<v Speaker 1>thought it was like a generic like one or all

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:12.481
<v Speaker 1>or none, all or none.

0:06:14.001 --> 0:06:17.001
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, all these kids around Brisbane got random pictures of

0:06:17.121 --> 0:06:22.801
<v Speaker 2>me in your tracks yeah off guard, like that really surprised.

0:06:23.601 --> 0:06:24.921
<v Speaker 1>The mere kat photo like that.

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:30.641
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, anyway, So the girls got plenty of snaps, but

0:06:30.681 --> 0:06:33.921
<v Speaker 2>no dates, no, no dates, and so now I like,

0:06:34.041 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I feel like now I'm obsessing over it. I'm like,

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.161
<v Speaker 2>you should really talk to some more boys. Who ever

0:06:39.161 --> 0:06:40.520
<v Speaker 2>thought that I would be encouraging that?

0:06:40.841 --> 0:06:43.521
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, but don't they have like again, didn't

0:06:43.561 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 1>go to school in Brisbane, but from what I've heard,

0:06:45.961 --> 0:06:48.681
<v Speaker 1>don't have like sister schools. Like does it make sense?

0:06:48.761 --> 0:06:50.761
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like the boys school and the girls.

0:06:50.521 --> 0:06:52.921
<v Speaker 1>They're right next to each other, like the girls and

0:06:52.961 --> 0:06:56.241
<v Speaker 1>the boys sort of think and then they sort of, isaay,

0:06:56.361 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 1>cross pollinate from there. But I don't know, like did

0:06:59.521 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 1>you always have one?

0:07:00.361 --> 0:07:04.841
<v Speaker 2>Yes, they've had times where they've been talking to boys, Yeah,

0:07:05.081 --> 0:07:07.681
<v Speaker 2>but they're not really at the moment. And because they're

0:07:07.801 --> 0:07:11.521
<v Speaker 2>quite shy when it comes to that. Yeah, I just

0:07:11.561 --> 0:07:15.321
<v Speaker 2>don't know. I'm like, I'm getting nervous about it. There's

0:07:15.321 --> 0:07:15.721
<v Speaker 2>gonna be.

0:07:15.641 --> 0:07:17.881
<v Speaker 1>Plenty of people out there that don't have dates.

0:07:18.481 --> 0:07:21.441
<v Speaker 2>Surely, well you'd think so. But then I said to them, well,

0:07:21.481 --> 0:07:23.761
<v Speaker 2>why don't you just go with a group of girlfriends. Oh,

0:07:24.081 --> 0:07:25.601
<v Speaker 2>that's like social suicide.

0:07:25.841 --> 0:07:27.521
<v Speaker 1>Well then they need to pick up their A game

0:07:27.601 --> 0:07:31.521
<v Speaker 1>and like get better at this. Don't they go to parties? Now? Yeah,

0:07:31.601 --> 0:07:34.201
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't work. You don't meet people at parties anymore, Well,

0:07:34.281 --> 0:07:36.961
<v Speaker 1>you'd think. So I can't believe.

0:07:37.281 --> 0:07:40.761
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe. My issue with kids at the moment

0:07:40.841 --> 0:07:43.641
<v Speaker 2>is trying to find them a boyfriend. I never never

0:07:43.801 --> 0:07:45.721
<v Speaker 2>ever would be.

0:07:45.921 --> 0:07:50.441
<v Speaker 1>And they're beautiful, beautiful girls, not that that matters, but

0:07:50.521 --> 0:07:53.720
<v Speaker 1>you somewhat, you know, like it somewhere along the line,

0:07:53.841 --> 0:07:56.161
<v Speaker 1>you know that sort of you think, oh, you can't

0:07:56.201 --> 0:07:59.161
<v Speaker 1>you just get a boyfriend or like. But again, like

0:07:59.561 --> 0:08:02.601
<v Speaker 1>they're starting new circles, although you know that might not

0:08:02.681 --> 0:08:05.241
<v Speaker 1>change anything, but are they allowed to bring people from

0:08:05.241 --> 0:08:07.681
<v Speaker 1>outside of Like it doesn't have to be from it

0:08:07.721 --> 0:08:08.521
<v Speaker 1>can be anyone.

0:08:08.641 --> 0:08:11.521
<v Speaker 2>It could be anyone. Yeah, and so now they've got

0:08:11.561 --> 0:08:15.280
<v Speaker 2>a friend who does have a boyfriend, and so she's

0:08:15.361 --> 0:08:18.681
<v Speaker 2>now saying, well, come along, why don't I introduce you

0:08:18.721 --> 0:08:22.281
<v Speaker 2>to some of his friends. Yes, and maybe.

0:08:22.441 --> 0:08:26.321
<v Speaker 1>And the girls working now they meet different group of people,

0:08:26.481 --> 0:08:30.081
<v Speaker 1>like obviously similar age because that's who they employ. Yeah.

0:08:30.201 --> 0:08:36.001
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's all kids, the managers of kids. It's like

0:08:36.161 --> 0:08:37.441
<v Speaker 2>kids managing other.

0:08:37.361 --> 0:08:39.041
<v Speaker 1>Kids, kids that are running kids.

0:08:39.041 --> 0:08:41.761
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what? I will never not that I

0:08:41.801 --> 0:08:44.721
<v Speaker 2>ever was before that, but I will never be rude

0:08:45.001 --> 0:08:48.281
<v Speaker 2>to a macas worker or KFC or whoever it might

0:08:48.321 --> 0:08:51.601
<v Speaker 2>be hungry Jack. I will always be very careful how

0:08:51.721 --> 0:08:53.521
<v Speaker 2>I speak to them now, even if they get my

0:08:53.641 --> 0:08:56.281
<v Speaker 2>order wrong, which is fucking all the time. Well I

0:08:56.281 --> 0:08:58.001
<v Speaker 2>say all the time, like I get meccas all the time,

0:08:58.041 --> 0:09:00.481
<v Speaker 2>Like I've probably had it once in a year, but

0:09:01.601 --> 0:09:04.161
<v Speaker 2>they always get your order wrong because it's always kids.

0:09:04.441 --> 0:09:08.521
<v Speaker 2>Kids manage kids. But I will always be very careful

0:09:09.121 --> 0:09:11.921
<v Speaker 2>how I speak to them now because it's someone's kid.

0:09:12.121 --> 0:09:13.121
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I get it.

0:09:13.161 --> 0:09:16.401

<v Speaker 2>people at the drive through for example.

0:09:22.961 --> 0:09:25.801
