Speaker 2: proper episode back for the year.
Speaker 1: Got to say what I got to say. Good morning Matthew,
Speaker 1: even though it's five past twelve.
Speaker 2: Good morning, my jewling, and hello Scrollers. Well Roo, we
Speaker 2: have genuinely missed you. We just had a bit of
Speaker 2: a moment here in the studio and we were like, God,
Speaker 2: it's good to be back.
Speaker 1: It is even though we've had episodes coming out every week,
Speaker 1: like we haven't technically had a break. We had a break.
Speaker 1: They were all pre recorded, as you all know, but
Speaker 1: this is our first official in real time episodes. When
Speaker 1: you're listening to this when it comes out, it's like
Speaker 1: not even twenty four hours earlier that we're recording in yeah, legit,
Speaker 1: So we're in real time. We're back for twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: and we're ready and.
Speaker 2: I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good about twenty twenty five
Speaker 2: in general. I have a good It has a good
Speaker 2: energy about it. I think you know, at the start
Speaker 2: of every year, we kind of like go into the
Speaker 2: year and we're like, you know, this is gonna be
Speaker 2: my yeah here, it's gonna be a great year, and
Speaker 2: everybody like has a good sense. But I think you
Speaker 2: lose that after the first couple of days of the
Speaker 2: new year, and that kind of that sense and that
Speaker 2: feeling goes away. I still have that. I'm still good.
Speaker 2: I'm still feeling like this year is going to be
Speaker 2: a really good year.
Speaker 1: Well, i'll tell you what. Throughout like the Christmas and
Speaker 1: New Year period, like, as everyone knows, AJ and I
Speaker 1: had time off for the first time ever in the
Speaker 1: history of Fate, and it felt like a month for
Speaker 1: me because like I've never had two weeks off work
Speaker 1: at Fate ever, never, ever, ever. But I was actually
Speaker 1: getting a bit overwhelmed with, like because I was on
Speaker 1: TikTok a lot, just scrolling' and I was getting overwhelmed
Speaker 1: with like everyone's you know, New Year's ins and outs,
Speaker 1: the seventy five hard challenges starting New Year's because everyone's
Speaker 1: doing the like Bingo card this year, where you like
Speaker 1: make a Bingo card and then you fucking put a
Speaker 1: picture over the top of it and whatever. And I
Speaker 1: was feeling like overwhelmed by that in the holidays because
Speaker 1: I think this is the first year where I'm just like,
Speaker 1: fuck it, I just want to just go into the
Speaker 1: year and just see what gets thrown at me. No
Speaker 1: expectation yeah, and I was like, oh, fuck, now I
Speaker 1: should do seventy five hard and fucking do this, that
Speaker 1: and the other because I saw everyone else doing it.
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, you know what, girls, you don't
Speaker 1: have to No, you can just go into the new
Speaker 1: year same as last year.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I can't imagine anything worse than a
Speaker 2: seventy five hard challenge.
Speaker 1: It's like seventy five soft and all this. And then
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, fuck, do I need to do that?
Speaker 2: I could do a seventy five soft depending on what
Speaker 2: it is. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think you can just make it up and make
Speaker 1: it whatever you want, as.
Speaker 2: Long as it's not a diet, you know, as long
Speaker 2: as it's not restrictive or I've got to force myself
Speaker 2: to do, you know. Like I feel like I feel
Speaker 2: like my year of health might have been a bit
Speaker 2: of a seventy five soft. I just kind of like
Speaker 2: set realistic expectations and goals and that sort of stuff.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I can't imagine doing anything like that. Could
Speaker 2: never be me.
Speaker 1: I just want to say to everyone it's okay to
Speaker 1: just like keep going into the new year as if
Speaker 1: though nothing's different, because let's be honest, nothing is different,
Speaker 1: which is another week. It's all the same. It's true
Speaker 1: you've had a bit of a transformation. Though your hair
Speaker 1: is streaked and blonde.
Speaker 2: Well that's always been the case.
Speaker 1: Actually, I think it's the spray tan.
Speaker 2: I think it's the spray tan has brought out the blonde.
Speaker 2: If you haven't seen the video on my social media,
Speaker 2: I got a spray tan. Look, things went a little
Speaker 2: bit wrong. I forgot to It was in an automatic machine.
Speaker 2: I forgot to turn around, and so the back of
Speaker 2: me is a little white, but the front of me
Speaker 2: is overglowing. Yeah and yeah, I've got the nails as well.
Speaker 2: We're now getting our little manicures and builder in a
Speaker 2: bottle on the nails, which with the nail art, I'm
Speaker 2: loving that. I've speaking of seventy five hard. I've signed
Speaker 2: up at the gym. I'm going to the gym now
Speaker 2: again for the first time in like five years. I
Speaker 2: spoke a little candidly about it on TikTok, just about
Speaker 2: my feelings about going back to the as someone who
Speaker 2: only really ever went to the gym to lose weight,
Speaker 2: which is now at this point in my life, not
Speaker 2: something that I'm interested in or care about. I don't
Speaker 2: care about the way that I look. We've spoken about
Speaker 2: that a lot on this podcast. You already should know.
Speaker 2: But this year, I really want to work on my
Speaker 2: strength and become a bit stronger. I have no upper
Speaker 2: body strength at all, and so if I I remember
Speaker 2: one time, actually I got booked to do a shoot
Speaker 2: with Disney and I had they I got there and
Speaker 2: they wouldn't tell me what I had to do because
Speaker 2: that was part of the video and it was to
Speaker 2: promote like Guardians of the Galaxy or something. Yeah, and anyway,
Speaker 2: I got there, I had to rock climb. That was
Speaker 2: what I was getting paid to go there and do
Speaker 2: and make the video.
Speaker 1: By the way, rock climbing is so fucking hard.
Speaker 2: And I was like much bigger than I am right now,
Speaker 2: and I had zero fitness at all, and I was
Speaker 2: like trying to do the rock climbing and I was
Speaker 2: telling them I'm sorry, I actually physically cannot do this,
Speaker 2: and they're like, but you have to do this job
Speaker 2: of fact, yeah for sure, and not to see it.
Speaker 2: I just I just was like it was just so
Speaker 2: bizarre to me. So I've never had any body strength,
Speaker 2: So I'd like to have a bit more upper body strength.
Speaker 2: When I was moving house, oh my god, picking up
Speaker 2: a box farf kilos heavy, I was like, I'll.
Speaker 1: Do a shift in the fate wearhouse. That's a good exercise.
Speaker 2: That's the thing I don't think I ever could. So
Speaker 2: that's something I want to work on. Obviously, I'm not
Speaker 2: worried about the aesthetics of it. I'm not trying to
Speaker 2: get big muscles and things like that. I'm just trying
Speaker 2: to improve my strength.
Speaker 1: I think I think I've said this on the pod before,
Speaker 1: but like I like, well sometimes on my FYP or whatever,
Speaker 1: see like you know, really fit, strong girls that lift
Speaker 1: all the weights and whatever, and they have the tripod
Speaker 1: in the gym, and like, even though like you're not
Speaker 1: all about that, all about the looks, Like I can
Speaker 1: really admire people that, literally, I think we've said this,
Speaker 1: like that have a sculpted body. I'm like that takes
Speaker 1: a certain amount of determination, and they look fucking good. Like,
Speaker 1: especially when I see like a really strong gal and
Speaker 1: she's in a little booty shorts and a fucking bra
Speaker 1: and she's got like muscles on her legs and her backs,
Speaker 1: and she's got like a six pack I'm like, fucking yeah,
Speaker 1: I wish that could be me. That's never gonna be me,
Speaker 1: because that requires one hundred percent determination and commitment. The
Speaker 1: way you're eating and everything is going to make you
Speaker 1: look that way. And I don't have that kind of effort.
Speaker 2: No, you've got enough projects going on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh no, not do a bodybuilding comm you know what,
Speaker 1: let's do it. Yeah No, I couldn't fair enough.
Speaker 2: Well, I did want to set the tone for the year,
Speaker 2: okay and apologize to you for something what because I
Speaker 2: actually have said something on this podcast in twenty twenty
Speaker 2: four that I now really I don't know if regret
Speaker 2: is the right word, but scared, but basically, you made
Speaker 2: a statement here on this podcast, and I refuted that statement.
Speaker 2: I said, you're wrong. You're absolutely you could not be
Speaker 2: more wrong. You just you And I thought, I think, I,
Speaker 2: you know, insinuated that you just were a little out
Speaker 2: of the loop with what was going on in the situation.
Speaker 2: So last year we were talking about pop girls Charlie XCX, Sabrina,
Speaker 2: CARVDA or the rest of it, and I was saying,
Speaker 2: you know, I was naming all the main pop girls.
Speaker 2: You then brought up Tate McCrae and I went, no,
Speaker 2: you said she's gonna be the next Britney Spears. I went, na,
Speaker 2: Dad'd be stupid, Tate McCrae. No, I mean she's good,
Speaker 2: she's lovely, she's doing a good job, but she's not
Speaker 2: up there with the other main pop girlies. Well, I'm
Speaker 2: here to say I apologize for shutting your theory down,
Speaker 2: and I am sorry about that because she actually is
Speaker 2: one of the hottest things right now, and especially over
Speaker 2: the summer. I really notice like her just taking off,
Speaker 2: and really the new music she's bringing out has taken
Speaker 2: her to that next level. She's got that new song
Speaker 2: that's about to drop with herd the Snippets for Sports
Speaker 2: Card that is like a Pussycat Dolls Buttons moment. I
Speaker 2: can see that's going to be another Espresso moment, I imagine.
Speaker 2: And so you were right, And you know, you've always
Speaker 2: been this type of person. We've been friends for what
Speaker 2: over ten years now, You've always been this type of
Speaker 2: person that will make a statement like that that is
Speaker 2: so rogue, and you'll go, this is what's going to happen,
Speaker 2: and I go and everyone else goes, No, Brittany, you
Speaker 2: don't know what you're telling me about. Nah, you're just
Speaker 2: playing silly buggers. And then lo and behold. You are
Speaker 2: one of those people who constantly gets to say I
Speaker 2: fucking told you so.
Speaker 1: I say this to my staff all the time when
Speaker 1: am I ever wrong? And they're like, you know what,
Speaker 1: brit you ride about that? I'm like, when am I
Speaker 1: ever fucking wrong? Just saying, well, you should be apologizing
Speaker 1: to Tate McCray.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sorry Tate McCrae. I love I love her
Speaker 2: and always have loved her, like, and she's.
Speaker 1: She's coming back here again. She was here last year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was only just here not long ago.
Speaker 1: If she comes back, I'm gonna have to try and
Speaker 1: get tickets, Yeah for sure.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think everyone needs to watch Tate McCray
Speaker 2: this year.
Speaker 1: Your eye on her and Addison too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I reckon. I reckon Addison is going to be Britney
Speaker 1: Spears in the Britney Spears biopic. I'm saying it now. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: because I reckon they're filming it and I reckon. That's
Speaker 1: why Addison rays so quiet on social media.
Speaker 2: Oh well, there you go.
Speaker 1: But again, I haven't read that anywhere or anything but
Speaker 1: I just think, Okay, that's my prediction. Again. Let's see, let's.
Speaker 2: See what happens. God, you're skilling a bit florent Star.
Speaker 1: Well, let's do our first Royal Flush of twenty twenty five. Matt, Yeah,
Speaker 1: please be upstanding for the Royal flush. What have you got? Oh?
Speaker 1: I can see what yours is?
Speaker 2: Okay, yours is good too. This is so good. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm very excited about being back in dooing Royal flashes
Speaker 2: and all the rest of it. I don't know. I'm
Speaker 2: just in a very good mood today everyone. I hope
Speaker 2: everyone is taking my infectious energy on board today. So
Speaker 2: I have a new show that I think everybody needs
Speaker 2: to watch. It is on Amazon Prime, which I will
Speaker 2: say just quickly, on Amazon Prime. The only reason I
Speaker 2: actually have Amazon Prime the streaming service is because I
Speaker 2: pay for Amazon the delivery service, so it's all included
Speaker 2: in one.
Speaker 1: See, I think I've been an idiot. I think I
Speaker 1: have Amazon Prime on my phone, and then I think
Speaker 1: I signed up for like Amazon TV, and I think
Speaker 1: I've got two accounts going on at once. So I
Speaker 1: need to look into that.
Speaker 2: Okay. But basically, if you pay for Amazon you get
Speaker 2: it included. You also get I think like potentially maybe
Speaker 2: an audible or a Kindle subscription included. It's all included.
Speaker 2: I don't know how it works, but look into it. Basically,
Speaker 2: if you pay for Amazon, which is so worth it everybody,
Speaker 2: especially if you live in Love Amazon, if you live
Speaker 2: in a metropolitan area, it's so worth it. You get
Speaker 2: next day sometimes same day delivery.
Speaker 1: See, we don't get that in newe Yeah.
Speaker 2: I know that's it, but we get like I.
Speaker 1: Think it's like not next day but the one after, yeah,
Speaker 1: like or maybe some of the next day if you
Speaker 1: order by a certain time.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But it's still pretty good for.
Speaker 2: Newie and you get special discounts and sort of things
Speaker 2: like that. So it's definitely worth signing up to anyway.
Speaker 2: That means I have Amazon Prime Now. The TV show
Speaker 2: that I am recommending to you. My sister actually told
Speaker 2: me about it and she was like, it is some
Speaker 2: of the best television I've ever watched. And I was like, surely,
Speaker 2: not like, not old mate doing this show. I don't
Speaker 2: think you know. Anyway, I turned it on this one
Speaker 2: day and it was the first time in a very
Speaker 2: long time that my phone was not a distraction for
Speaker 2: a television show. I was glued to the screen, the
Speaker 2: drama of it, all, the way it's filmed, the suspense,
Speaker 2: the things they're doing in the show, everything about it.
Speaker 2: I was like just so on board for that. I
Speaker 2: didn't even touch my phone. I then came to we
Speaker 2: did a friends mess at the end of last year.
Speaker 1: You told me about it.
Speaker 2: I came up to yours and I said, let me
Speaker 2: tell you about this TV show, doll, you need to
Speaker 2: watch this. You watched it, you loved it too.
Speaker 1: So I've only watched up to like where that episode was,
Speaker 1: so there's probably more that I haven't watched. So don't
Speaker 1: spoil it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, no worries. Basically, I know you're all on
Speaker 2: the EDGC.
Speaker 1: And by the way, it's the most unexpected fucking show, Like,
Speaker 1: you would not even pick Matt to watch it. I
Speaker 1: reckon if Matt like, you'll see what I mean.
Speaker 2: So the show is Mister Beast Games.
Speaker 1: If you don't know who mister Beast is, he's like
Speaker 1: the most popular YouTuber ever. He's got so much money
Speaker 1: it's not even funny.
Speaker 2: He's got those videos that are like curing a thousand
Speaker 2: people's blindnurse and doing real life squid game and all
Speaker 2: the rest of that. And I guess this show is
Speaker 2: a reality show where he takes a thousand contestants literally
Speaker 2: puts them in this world he's built. They all sleep
Speaker 2: in there, and they all complete these challenges. The challenges
Speaker 2: are so creative, so smart, so fun.
Speaker 1: And yet so simple and yes, so simple. The thing
Speaker 1: is as well. So the money that he gives away
Speaker 1: in this show is like nothing you've ever fucking seen before.
Speaker 1: Like there's like a big grand prize at the end,
Speaker 1: five million. He gives away millions of other dollars from
Speaker 1: the first game like it's wild, and like I can
Speaker 1: vouch for this show. I've never watched mister Beest. It's
Speaker 1: not really my thing. I feel like he's or targeted
Speaker 1: to like teenage boys in America. This show is like
Speaker 1: nothing you've ever seen before. And he's broken the world
Speaker 1: record of most amount of money ever given away in
Speaker 1: any prize show in the history of the world.
Speaker 2: And there's so many records because it's also he's also
Speaker 2: broken the record for the most game game show money
Speaker 2: given away in the first episode of the series as well,
Speaker 2: because that never happens. No one ever gives.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. If you loved like Big Brother Friday Night Games,
Speaker 1: you will love this because it gives that sort of vibe.
Speaker 1: And it's obviously inspired by Squid Game if you've watched
Speaker 1: that as well, which we might talk about a little later,
Speaker 1: and it shows you humanity at its worst and at
Speaker 1: its best. I think as well, like there's a lot
Speaker 1: of emotion in the show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, people form alliances then stab each other in the.
Speaker 1: Back because there's money dangling in front of their face.
Speaker 2: There's actually one part of the show which I will
Speaker 2: tell you about, which I guess is kind of a
Speaker 2: spoiler player, but it's one tiny piece of the puzzle,
Speaker 2: and I just I don't think it's that big of
Speaker 2: a deal. Basically, there's one part the show, and I
Speaker 2: think maybe episode three, where he says, you know, you've
Speaker 2: all got to know each other. Now get into group
Speaker 2: of threes with the people that you're closest to in
Speaker 2: this competition. So they all get their besties. The three
Speaker 2: besties all get together. They're all like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: love you. We're going to do the next challenge together.
Speaker 2: This is so exciting. He then locks everyone in different
Speaker 2: rooms in their groups of three, and then when they're
Speaker 2: in the room, he says, right, you've got five hours
Speaker 2: to decide one of you must be eliminated from the competition.
Speaker 2: In each room, you have to talk to each other
Speaker 2: and figure out which one of that is going. And
Speaker 2: of course that means they're saying goodbye to five the
Speaker 2: chance of five million dollars. This means that he has
Speaker 2: made them form the relationship, become very close with people.
Speaker 2: He's then told them to get with their besties. He's
Speaker 2: then put them in a room and said, now you've
Speaker 2: got to confront each other. You've only just gotten to
Speaker 2: know each other and you've only just formed a relationship,
Speaker 2: but now you need to decide which one of you
Speaker 2: is going to say goodbye to five million dollars and
Speaker 2: just eliminate yourself from the competition, and the other two
Speaker 2: people in the room to go on.
Speaker 1: And another again spoiler, but like there's so much more
Speaker 1: to the show that this really isn't a soilert happens
Speaker 1: when they're in those rooms like their tiny little white cubes,
Speaker 1: like it's a white room with nothing else. But because
Speaker 1: he's got so much fucking money, one thing that they
Speaker 1: were able to do in that room is ask for
Speaker 1: anything they want. They were allowed There was a phone
Speaker 1: on the wall, and they were allowed to ask for
Speaker 1: anything in the world that they want. And as you
Speaker 1: can imagine, they got five hours. Everyone was getting so
Speaker 1: creative and calling up and asking for all sorts of rogue,
Speaker 1: random shit, and you just I'd recommend watching it just
Speaker 1: for that element alone, because it just shows you, like
Speaker 1: what people are really like. There was some sore, fucking
Speaker 1: losers in there that I was so mad at and
Speaker 1: I'm messaging Matt going those saw fucking losers like because
Speaker 1: they all like play. They were playing games with one another,
Speaker 1: and then you know, whoever lost, they were the one
Speaker 1: that went home because it's the only fair way to
Speaker 1: like work it out. And then people were refusing to
Speaker 1: leave even though they lost the game.
Speaker 2: And Matt's like, we forgot to say that if they
Speaker 2: couldn't come to a decision, all they all go, all
Speaker 2: three of them, three of them, so someone had to
Speaker 2: go otherwise all three.
Speaker 1: Merely some fucking sore losers in there. Let me tell
Speaker 1: you know, I was yelling at the TV. I'm messaging
Speaker 1: Matt like that so fucking loser guy, And that's like
Speaker 1: that would be me.
Speaker 2: That would be me. If I'm not winning, no one is.
Speaker 2: I'm going down with all of your love. Sorry, would
Speaker 2: that for you? I'm thinking this motherfucking ship even if
Speaker 2: you lost.
Speaker 1: A game, yeah it was fair and square.
Speaker 2: I don't know. No, I don't know if I lost
Speaker 2: fair and square, yeah, I'd probably still go. No, I'm
Speaker 2: not gone because then hopefully someone else goes and I
Speaker 2: get to stay in the game. Either I'm going home
Speaker 2: and giving up my chance, or there's nothing more that
Speaker 2: I could have done in that situation, do you know
Speaker 2: what I mean?
Speaker 1: But they all agreed to play games with one another,
Speaker 1: and then if you lose, you should go because there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people did but that one fucking guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you hated him.
Speaker 1: Oh I'll punch him in the face. Well, then bring
Speaker 1: that violence, bring back violence.
Speaker 2: Anyway, watched mister Bass games. Did you end up watching Squid.
Speaker 1: Game over the breaks?
Speaker 2: I did? Have you watched it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I did? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I again like spoiler alert, but not really so.
Speaker 1: Squid Game Season two came out over the holidays on
Speaker 1: Boxing Day? Didn't it come out? Binged it in a day?
Speaker 2: Same?
Speaker 1: Ah? Like I love that show. Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 1: it obviously left us all on a massive cliffhanger because
Speaker 1: they're preparing for season three. But I overall really liked it,
Speaker 1: and can we just talk about like the Merry Go
Speaker 1: Round game free?
Speaker 2: So that was the best, I know, the best episode.
Speaker 1: Again like spoiler, but we're not really given that much away,
Speaker 1: Like there's so much that happens in the season, but
Speaker 1: they introduce a new game. Should we explain how the
Speaker 1: game works? Or surely everyone's seen it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I reckon if you haven't seen it by now,
Speaker 2: you probably can't be bothered watching. Yeah, I will say
Speaker 2: not as good as season one. We spent way too
Speaker 2: much time on voting.
Speaker 1: Yeah that was annoying.
Speaker 2: Forty minutes on an episode of voting.
Speaker 1: I was and see what I think as well.
Speaker 2: But big reflection on society. I got what they were trying.
Speaker 1: To get to me, but what I'm trying to One
Speaker 1: thing that I think is, well, Matt, if you've got
Speaker 1: a room, we got to say one hundred people, what
Speaker 1: are the odds that it's fucking fifty to fifty? Do
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: How is it always fifty to fifty for them? Or
Speaker 1: like one extra, like, don't you think in real life
Speaker 1: it would be more vastly one side versus the other?
Speaker 2: Well, look the elections and things that happen, they're very close.
Speaker 2: They're often very very close. And that's I think what
Speaker 2: the message of the show was is it only takes
Speaker 2: one person to make a difference exactly. I think that's
Speaker 2: the whole.
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, fucking someone, I would never play
Speaker 1: Squid Game, would you, m.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I genuinely think I could win, Like I've
Speaker 2: just got such an inflated so everybody that I'm going, well,
Speaker 2: that's easy.
Speaker 1: Everyone knows a red Light green Light game at the start,
Speaker 1: because that was in season one. We can talk about that.
Speaker 1: They play that game again where that doll's head spins
Speaker 1: around and then they've got to run, They've got to
Speaker 1: stop and freeze, and if they move, they get shot.
Speaker 1: I think if Squid Game happened in real life and
Speaker 1: that game existed in real life, most people would die
Speaker 1: in that game because as soon as one person moves
Speaker 1: and you hear those gun shots, I think in real
Speaker 1: life everyone would start running and screaming because you couldn't
Speaker 1: stay still when you're watching someone get shot and just
Speaker 1: the sound like you would react. So I think if
Speaker 1: it was in reality, most of the contestants would die
Speaker 1: in that game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I also think the only thing that bugs
Speaker 2: me about squid game is half of it is you're
Speaker 2: also at everyone else's expense, like similar to Mister Beasts games,
Speaker 2: like you could get eliminated because of other people's actions.
Speaker 1: Well, like think of in the Red Light Green Light.
Speaker 1: As soon as one person gets shot, people start panicking
Speaker 1: and freaking out, they start running, They're just going to
Speaker 1: run straight into you, like you're going to get knocked
Speaker 1: over because of other people. So I think if it
Speaker 1: was in real life, you die in that game. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I think the Merry Go Round game that they introduce
Speaker 1: that's the scariest game of all really, Like, yeah, well
Speaker 1: the glass jumping game from season one that's petrifying, like
Speaker 1: you know, and they leap across the ladder and the
Speaker 1: glass leather break or not, and then you fall to
Speaker 1: your desk. But the Merry Go Round one, like that's
Speaker 1: petrifying running to a door and hoping that you're gonna
Speaker 1: get in. Yeah, no, thanks, Like I was on the
Speaker 1: edge of my seat.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I loved it. The budget was through the roof.
Speaker 2: It was gorgeous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, highly recommend Tyler, Mister Beast Games and Squid Game.
Speaker 1: My royal flush is a very selfish and personal one.
Speaker 1: Well it's not really selfish, but my royal flush is
Speaker 1: the fact that I am back on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, congratulations, welcome back or rushouldn't they welcome back?
Speaker 2: I'm not there, but anyway, good to see you back.
Speaker 2: I'm also loving it, by.
Speaker 1: The way, Yeah, I like, I don't know. Have we
Speaker 1: spoken about our We've spoken about our YouTube days a
Speaker 1: lot on the pod. Yeah, And it's just like an
Speaker 1: idea that I've had it would be good to make
Speaker 1: it come back. Oh, I can't be bothered. But we
Speaker 1: just thought, fuck it, let's do it. So we're back
Speaker 1: on YouTube. It's my old channel that I had Britney
Speaker 1: Lee Saunders, but we've rebranded it to be like Fate
Speaker 1: and Me, So it's a bit of my personal life
Speaker 1: and we're going to be showing a lot of what
Speaker 1: we get up to it Fate just in longer form
Speaker 1: content because I feel like our eyes and hands are
Speaker 1: really exhausted from all the short form content that we've
Speaker 1: been soaking in over the last couple of years, so
Speaker 1: we thought, why not get back on YouTube for anyone
Speaker 1: that wants to watch what we're up to in longer form.
Speaker 1: And I'm loving it. Yeah, good, I think you might
Speaker 1: have to join me.
Speaker 2: Well, I've been watching and I'm loving that you're doing
Speaker 2: like kind of like a vlog, but then you also
Speaker 2: it's almost like watching an episode of the Kardashians. You've
Speaker 2: got like your vlog going on or what you're talking about,
Speaker 2: but then you kind of cut to like an interview
Speaker 2: style kind of confessional. But then you've also got references.
Speaker 2: Like if you reference like an old with Wade, you're like,
Speaker 2: this is Wade, you might remember him from my old videos.
Speaker 2: Then you actually play the old video.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I really love like that you put all the context
Speaker 2: in there.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And I think it shows people as well, like
Speaker 1: how long I've been doing this for? Because when I've
Speaker 1: been playing these old videos, I put the year on
Speaker 1: the screen. It's like twenty twelve. And for people I
Speaker 1: guess that haven't followed me the whole time, they're gonna
Speaker 1: see that and go holy fuck, like she's been making
Speaker 1: these videos forever. Yeah, And I will say, like that
Speaker 1: first blog that I did was quite rushed because I
Speaker 1: filmed it on a weekend and like quickly did it.
Speaker 1: But I want our videography to get even better. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and yeah, we kind of want to do like vlogs,
Speaker 1: but like make it feel a bit more put together.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure there'll be vlogs that are just like
Speaker 1: chucked up and whatever. And I did a bonus video
Speaker 1: randomly which was really fun, but we want to make
Speaker 1: them feel like kind of yeah, like a mini reality
Speaker 1: episode with little cutaway interviews and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: And I just loving being back that, like even logging
Speaker 1: in and like uploading and putting the title and thumbnail
Speaker 1: pictures pretty much the same, pretty much, like it's just
Speaker 1: a bit more detailed now. Yeah, but I'm just loving that,
Speaker 1: like just and then looking at the YouTube creator studio
Speaker 1: and I said this on my story, but like I
Speaker 1: didn't know that. I keep feeling something on my toe
Speaker 1: and I keep thinking it's like a spider anyway, sorry,
Speaker 1: Like obviously Matt and I used to do YouTube back
Speaker 1: in the day and we would like earn money off it,
Speaker 1: and you it's called a YouTube partner. That's when you
Speaker 1: make money.
Speaker 2: Off By the way, I never made hardly anything from
Speaker 2: YouTube ad Sense that's fun. It was crazy, like I
Speaker 2: think my biggest month was like one hundred and twelve dollars,
Speaker 2: And I was like.
Speaker 1: Fuck, yeah, I mean it's better than nothing, but that's
Speaker 1: not good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, well in comparison to what everyone else
Speaker 2: was earning. But as I was saying to you the
Speaker 2: other day, my CPM, which is like how much you
Speaker 2: get paid per thousand views on average or something, that
Speaker 2: was always like eleven cents, whereas like a lot of
Speaker 2: other people's were at like a dollar fifty, sometimes even
Speaker 2: up to a seven dollars I've heard of. So it's like,
Speaker 2: I think I had a real low one, probably because
Speaker 2: I was so rogue. They were like, advertisers don't want
Speaker 2: to pay for you.
Speaker 1: So true. Ah. Well, anyway, I didn't like I didn't
Speaker 1: realize that I had lost my YouTube partnership, Like I
Speaker 1: was no longer a YouTube partner. So when I signed
Speaker 1: back up this like in January, I had to like apply,
Speaker 1: you had to wait to apply again because you have
Speaker 1: to have a certain amount of views and all this
Speaker 1: sort of shit. And I've applied and I just need
Speaker 1: to put in like my passport and stuff. To prove
Speaker 1: that I am who I am. But now I'm eligible
Speaker 1: to make money through the YouTube channel again.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: So I put up three YouTube videos already, the first
Speaker 1: one which is like my best one, which was the
Speaker 1: first video back, and it's got the most amount of views. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: it's not eligible for ads because in one of my
Speaker 1: old videos, I've got a Havana Brown song playing in
Speaker 1: the background. When I'm like, hi, I'm Britney Sooners and
Speaker 1: I'm eighteen from Newcastle, there's this like we runny, yes,
Speaker 1: we run the night in the So with YouTube, they're
Speaker 1: like so onto it. If there's like a song in
Speaker 1: the background, boom, you can't have ads. But anyway, I
Speaker 1: only flicked on the ad Sense the other day and
Speaker 1: my CPM is a dollar fifty or whatever. So for
Speaker 1: every one thousand views, I get a dollar fifty. So
Speaker 1: off the two videos that are monetized, I've made one
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five dollars, which I'm pretty important. I'm
Speaker 1: pretty impressed. And obviously the more videos that you upload,
Speaker 1: like you just keep earning that CPM, and the CPM
Speaker 1: thing goes up and down, like some days it'll be
Speaker 1: two dollars some days it'll be ten cents whatever. But
Speaker 1: what I've decided what I'm going to do with the
Speaker 1: ad money is do something cool with it. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm going to do it once a
Speaker 1: month or once every three months, but I want to
Speaker 1: put that money that I use towards something. It could be.
Speaker 1: I don't know if we're going to do it, what
Speaker 1: do you think monthly or quarterly? Depends what it's going
Speaker 1: to be. It could be random, but like I might
Speaker 1: do a big yeah that as well, could be just
Speaker 1: two hundred dollars forever, but we want to like use
Speaker 1: that money to do something. So like one month or whatever,
Speaker 1: it could just be I'm doing like some giveaways. Another month,
Speaker 1: we might have everyone vote on a charity that we're
Speaker 1: going to donate it to. If I earn fucking enough,
Speaker 1: like we could throw a cool, big event or something
Speaker 1: for everyone. But just want to use that money for
Speaker 1: good and like, you know, to give back to the
Speaker 1: community and give to charities and stuff, because I'm not
Speaker 1: making the YouTube videos to like line my pockets, not
Speaker 1: that I think it's going to be all that much,
Speaker 1: but I want to just do something cool with it.
Speaker 1: So I'm really excited, So please go and watch my
Speaker 1: YouTube videos if you haven't already. And it's just it's Matt.
Speaker 1: It's so nostalgic to be back and like I'm in
Speaker 1: the comments section right and back to everyone just feels
Speaker 1: like a blast from the past. So I hopefully, I
Speaker 1: mean people are still on YouTube from like back in
Speaker 1: our YouTube days, but I feel like all the ogs
Speaker 1: need to make a comeback. You dedicated, Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I Michael Finch, I did, Shane Grimman, where are you?
Speaker 2: Carissa Purkis, what are you doing?
Speaker 1: Is she still on YouTube? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I know Shan Exo is still uploading.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like some of the ogs are still there. But
Speaker 1: I feel like we need to have a comeback year
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five, and everyone needs to come back.
Speaker 2: So I did think about it. Remember I almost reactivated
Speaker 2: my channel and did vlogs when I turned twenty nine.
Speaker 2: I turned twenty nine and I was like, I don't
Speaker 2: want to have any regrets. When I turned thirty, well
Speaker 2: that went out the bloody window. But at the time
Speaker 2: I was like, from my twenty ninth birthday, I was like,
Speaker 2: maybe I've gone by myself a new vlog camera and
Speaker 2: I've logged for twelve months in my last year of
Speaker 2: my twenties, and then I never got around to doing it,
Speaker 2: and I couldn't be bothered, but I definitely wanted to
Speaker 2: because when I think of YouTube, the only videos that
Speaker 2: I'm miss making are vlogs. They're so fun. It's like
Speaker 2: a therapy session. Sometimes you get everything off your chest,
Speaker 2: you tell everyone. And these days on my social media,
Speaker 2: I mean back in the day when we did YouTube,
Speaker 2: we would say things like, you know, you only see
Speaker 2: like a small portion of our day.
Speaker 1: You can show your whole day.
Speaker 2: I know, But now that is even like times ten
Speaker 2: that statement, because like you really are seeing hardly anything
Speaker 2: of my day when it comes down to it, which
Speaker 2: I don't do intentionally, but it's almost as if that's
Speaker 2: just the way, Like the world has just been conditioned
Speaker 2: to have shorter content and less people actually want to know.
Speaker 2: I mean, people want to know more, but they're wanting
Speaker 2: to resume less, I guess. So anyway, I also have
Speaker 2: the whole thing about you know, we all know about
Speaker 2: the drama of my channel and getting demonetized and the
Speaker 2: queer videos that I was making getting hidden. We know
Speaker 2: all of that. So I'm also conscious that, like going back,
Speaker 2: I also had about ninety something thousand subscribers. I almost
Speaker 2: hit that one hundred k, and the only thing I
Speaker 2: ever wanted in my life was a bloody play button.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Then, since the channel's been so inactive, like I think
Speaker 2: it's down to like seventy thousand subscribers, might even be
Speaker 2: lower because it's been yeah, like probably five years since
Speaker 2: I've uploaded a YouTube video. So I'm scared that if
Speaker 2: I went back, I mean, you're kind of proving me wrong.
Speaker 1: Well, Matt, I'm in my analytics right now, and I
Speaker 1: felt the same coming back to YouTube. Like with the
Speaker 1: channel with over a million subscribers, surely everyone's just gonna unsubscribe.
Speaker 1: But I've gained three thousand subscribers.
Speaker 2: Well there you go.
Speaker 1: I've probably lost some too, but it's up two point
Speaker 1: eight K, which I was surprised by.
Speaker 2: You're convincing me to try and to maybe do it.
Speaker 1: You should, And I'm just filming all of my videos
Speaker 1: on iPhone, Like iPhones are that good quality these days?
Speaker 2: You shooting in four K or not?
Speaker 1: Just normal? Maybe I don't know. Whatever it is when
Speaker 1: you turn the camera.
Speaker 2: On, Well tell me it's in the top corner HD thirty.
Speaker 2: You're joking the lowest setting. Yeah, is that what you feel?
Speaker 2: All your videos on Potato Vibes. What's going on there?
Speaker 1: And it's great quality?
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: I went and bought a new iPhone, like the iPhone fifteen.
Speaker 2: Yep, have you had to put your over there?
Speaker 1: You're going to finish that promax. It's like the iPhone
Speaker 1: fifteen plus.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah nice.
Speaker 1: And so it's new and it's fucking great quality, awesome,
Speaker 1: And I'm just filming on there. You don't need to
Speaker 1: have a clunky camera like you just have a phone, okay.
Speaker 2: And the stability is good, I mean it looks good
Speaker 2: in the videos. Wobbly, No, it's perfect alrighty then maybe
Speaker 2: maybe maybe maybe this year. I mean there's already a
Speaker 2: lot going on this fucking year, but maybe this year.
Speaker 1: I reckon, all you need to come back, we all
Speaker 1: need to get together.
Speaker 2: Text Michael, I'll say, dull start doing some vlugs. Let's
Speaker 2: let's start this again. All the og Australian YouTube is back.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's another prediction you've made. Here we go. You're
Speaker 2: a song word.
Speaker 1: Addison raised, Britney spears and all the ogs is going
Speaker 1: to come back to YouTube, write it down and I
Speaker 1: don't want to say I've started the trend, but we'll see. Well,
Speaker 1: something else that's just happened in the last forty eight hours,
Speaker 1: TikTok being banned in America and then coming back yet.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you know what. I was so excited
Speaker 2: to talk about this because you know, I write the
Speaker 2: little briefs here on a Sunday night, so whether they
Speaker 2: were ready for a Monday morning to record, and at
Speaker 2: the time it had just gone down and it was
Speaker 2: mayhem on TikTok. It was absolute mayhem. Last night felt
Speaker 2: like I was in the Twilight zone and everyone on
Speaker 2: my for you page was Australian and everyone had like
Speaker 2: three hundred followers say.
Speaker 1: I hated it, oh really, Like I genuinely think, like,
Speaker 1: obviously now since then it's come back, so that US
Speaker 1: is back on TikTok. But I was thinking if they
Speaker 1: weren't going to come back, which I thought they definitely
Speaker 1: were going to get it back no matter what I reckon,
Speaker 1: TikTok would have become so boring for all of us.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I was ready to change it and have
Speaker 2: none of them on there. May God bless America. Love
Speaker 2: you darling kisses, but it'd be nice to just have.
Speaker 1: Do you really think place? Do you reckon? Though? Like really,
Speaker 1: when you think about it, imagine if you were scrolling
Speaker 1: and you never saw Trisha paid us again, like you
Speaker 1: never saw any of them.
Speaker 2: I can see them on other platforms, though, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed myself, and I think that algorithm also
Speaker 2: was really really beneficial because although one hundred and seventy
Speaker 2: million people, well what happened was obviously the band affected
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy million TikTok users in America. That
Speaker 2: meant there were one hundred and seventy million less people
Speaker 2: who were either on live streams or posting videos or anything.
Speaker 2: So I posted a video, which funnily enough, was from
Speaker 2: the Vault. I'm doing a from the Vault series on
Speaker 2: TikTok where a lot of the videos I filmed last
Speaker 2: year that never saw the light of day. I'm just
Speaker 2: deciding to pop them on TikTok because I'm like, may
Speaker 2: as well use the content, And so I posted it
Speaker 2: got like three hundred k views in a few hours.
Speaker 2: It absolutely popped off, and I was like, this must
Speaker 2: be because TikTok's like, shit, there's no content, we better
Speaker 2: boost whoever's posting. And I just happened to post and
Speaker 2: it went off, and then I went live and the
Speaker 2: same thing happened. There mustn't have been many people on live,
Speaker 2: so everyone was begging for people to watch. And here
Speaker 2: I am and hundreds of people are coming in and
Speaker 2: they're all following me. Oh, I did wonders for me.
Speaker 2: It was really hitting the clip, so I was all
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: But do you beat that out? When Matt says that.
Speaker 2: Hit the clip? Yeah, it's not even what's why can't
Speaker 2: we say clip? If I said hit the you know
Speaker 2: that'd be we'd have to beat that one out, but
Speaker 2: we'd get no. But hit the clip. I've literally put that.
Speaker 2: I've literally put that on a T shirt. By the way, Yeah,
Speaker 2: when I did my when I released that book with
Speaker 2: Gray Lines, we did a hit the clip teeth.
Speaker 1: I will never forget when you Tanya Hennessy and I
Speaker 1: made a skit. Some of you would have seen it,
Speaker 1: some of you probably haven't. And I'm going to post
Speaker 1: it in our broadcast channel on Instagram, so be sure
Speaker 1: to join that if you haven't already but we did
Speaker 1: a skit about people that have just been to Bali
Speaker 1: and they've come back home, and so we were just
Speaker 1: acting out all these people and the things that they
Speaker 1: say after being home from Bali. And in one of
Speaker 1: the clips, Matt is like, oh, I had great cocktails,
Speaker 1: you know, wet pussy, And then you said another one, Oh,
Speaker 1: what was it? Tits clips and bong hits. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was really nice.
Speaker 2: I had a cocktail over there was Divan. It was
Speaker 2: called tits clits and bonghads. Yeah. Look, well, when you
Speaker 2: go to Bali though, that's what they're not.
Speaker 1: That's what they're called. One in Bali needs to make
Speaker 1: a cocktail.
Speaker 2: Called tits clits and bong hits.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Literally, wait, what flavor would that cocktail be? I
Speaker 1: was if you had to genuinely give that a flavor
Speaker 1: that's real flavors.
Speaker 2: Well, it's in It's in my cocktail book. Poor decisions.
Speaker 2: We made a tits clits and bong hits.
Speaker 1: Hell, I've got that book somewhere. Yeah, support your friends.
Speaker 2: Thank you. It's in there somewhere, I'm sure, because I
Speaker 2: think that was the whole thing. When when I when
Speaker 2: they asked me whether I wanted to collab on something.
Speaker 2: I was like, let's do a cocktail book and they
Speaker 2: can all be funny names like tits, clits and bong hits.
Speaker 2: Because that was such an iconic moment in my.
Speaker 1: Social people are like, you know when you're in fits, laughing,
Speaker 1: like you try not to wee like that was us
Speaker 1: when we were filming that video.
Speaker 2: So yeah, anyway, I don't know what the.
Speaker 1: Same time, the one that he went through the floor
Speaker 1: was at that same time.
Speaker 2: The same video. It never made the end because I
Speaker 2: thought tits clips and bong Hits was so strong I
Speaker 2: left out gangers, sangers and sausage slangers. Wait, no, gangers,
Speaker 2: slangers and sausage sangers. That was another one of the
Speaker 2: which again this is a different time. Gangs is probably
Speaker 2: not a nice word to describe a woman these days,
Speaker 2: but back then anything was possible. Anyway, the point is,
Speaker 2: the point is, what the fuck were we talking about?
Speaker 2: The TikTok band? How do we get to tims, glints
Speaker 2: and bong hits? Anyway, the TikTok band, it's all over now,
Speaker 2: and I'm disappointed because I wanted to talk about it
Speaker 2: as if you know, I was.
Speaker 1: Still in the thick of it, but I remember, oh wait.
Speaker 2: Yeago, Well I've got an important little tidbit that maybe
Speaker 2: not everyone has seen. I will say this is what
Speaker 2: I found the most interesting about the whole situation is
Speaker 2: this morning when I woke up, I actually saw on
Speaker 2: a few of my friend's story some interesting things that
Speaker 2: have happened. So originally what happened was when you opened
Speaker 2: your TikTok app if you were in America, it came
Speaker 2: up with a message that was like, sorry, TikTok is
Speaker 2: not able to be used in the US, and the
Speaker 2: app won't work and close and it just there was
Speaker 2: no option but to close the app. Yes, this morning,
Speaker 2: TikTokers in America opened the app to see this message,
Speaker 2: which I find so strange. It says, welcome back, Thanks
Speaker 2: for your patients and support. As a result of President
Speaker 2: Trump's efforts, TikTok is back in the US. You can
Speaker 2: continue to create, share and discover all the things you
Speaker 2: love on TikTok. This was then followed up but with
Speaker 2: a tweet from TikTok policy that says with a statement
Speaker 2: from TikTok that says, in agreement with our service providers,
Speaker 2: TikTok is in the process of restoring service. We thank
Speaker 2: President Trump for providing the necessary clarity and assurance to
Speaker 2: our service providers that they will face no penalties, providing
Speaker 2: TikTok to over one hundred and seventy million Americans and
Speaker 2: allowing over seven millions small businesses to thrive. It's a
Speaker 2: strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship.
Speaker 2: We will work with President Trump on a long term
Speaker 2: solution that keeps TikTok in the United States.
Speaker 1: So he's got me thinking, is this just one massive
Speaker 1: campaign to make Donald Trump? Look?
Speaker 2: Wasn't it Donald Trump who made this happen in the
Speaker 2: first place, didn't he wasn't he the one few years
Speaker 2: ago that was like, we need to get rid of
Speaker 2: tig tuck? And then now he's like going to keep TikTok?
Speaker 1: Can you do it? An impersonation?
Speaker 2: Not very well? I'm not going to try it again.
Speaker 1: I thought you would be good at it.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: I saw James Charles doing one and he was really good.
Speaker 1: Really did you see that too? Hunah, Like, why was
Speaker 1: he so good at that?
Speaker 2: Yeah? It was good. It's good. But I couldn't do
Speaker 2: a good one. So I'm not even going to try
Speaker 2: I'm speaking mister Bee's and mister Beat's games. Apparently he
Speaker 2: wants to try and buy it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be a lot. It would be worth
Speaker 1: hundreds of billions. Surely, I don't know if he's got
Speaker 1: that much money, just saying, well, look, I'm glad that
Speaker 1: it's back because I think, like, TikTok's already banned from
Speaker 1: so many other countries, but America is so big, and
Speaker 1: they're like the audience of like the main people on TikTok. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's no I don't think there's anyone like bigger. I
Speaker 1: don't fucking know.
Speaker 2: Don't quote China.
Speaker 1: It's banned in China.
Speaker 2: Wait, China's banned from TikTok. Yeah, do they own TikTok.
Speaker 2: Doesn't TikTok own China? I mean doesn't China, Like it'sn't but.
Speaker 1: It's not in China.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, Well that's sus. Maybe I do. Maybe I
Speaker 2: do think that's a little bit sus.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm glad I.
Speaker 2: Can understand the confusion then, okay, because why would they
Speaker 2: create an app that their own country couldn't use.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Interesting, But I genuinely didn't realize that.
Speaker 1: I'm glad it's back. Number one, Like you said, the
Speaker 1: seven million small businesses that can continue to run like
Speaker 1: TikTok for business is huge in America. People's whole livelihoods
Speaker 1: and jobs would have been on the fucking you know,
Speaker 1: out the door if TikTok actually stayed away. And also,
Speaker 1: like I just feel like it would have eventually had
Speaker 1: a fucking effect on the economy somehow because of how
Speaker 1: big TikTok is. Yeah, like it would have had an
Speaker 1: effect on the economy straight away from all the American
Speaker 1: businesses that rely solely on TikTok. But also I just
Speaker 1: think TikTok would be boring if that they were all
Speaker 1: gone forever. I love seeing all the celebrities on there.
Speaker 2: Did I say it ghost?
Speaker 1: There's a kid from one of our.
Speaker 2: Four year old behind me. I was like, yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: You just reminded me then of that Who's horse is that? Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm glad they're back.
Speaker 2: I'm glad they're back too. But I really also if
Speaker 2: it was permanently banned, that it wasn't able to happen,
Speaker 2: Like you know, I know that you were like, I
Speaker 2: think we would get bored of it. I would be
Speaker 2: of the attitude of, like, let's make something of this.
Speaker 2: They're gone there, there's less competition. Now we can make
Speaker 2: this a safe space.
Speaker 1: America would have started their own TikTok, and then the
Speaker 1: whole world would have went over to that.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but we could have had our moment to
Speaker 2: begin with. Anyway, whatever it is, what it is, and
Speaker 2: do we really care at the end of the day
Speaker 2: what it is. Well. I would have loved to talk
Speaker 2: about my rant of the week in today's episode, but
Speaker 2: we've run out of time. We have discussed a lot,
Speaker 2: so I'm actually gonna keep my rant of the week
Speaker 2: for Friday's Close Friends episode. All right, I'm ready, So
