Speaker 2: about that.

Speaker 2: My memoir has been shelved and never to be released
Speaker 2: again until further night. Things could change in the future.
Speaker 2: But I had such good time around the country doing
Speaker 2: all my shows. It was fabulous, but very excited to
Speaker 2: be having a rest. I feel like I'm on do
Speaker 2: not disturb at the moment. I'm in my lazy era.
Speaker 2: I'd need a bit of a rest. This month August
Speaker 2: for me, not much happening. I just want to chill out,
Speaker 2: just pot around and have a bit of a rest, because,
Speaker 2: bloody hell, I don't know how people like Taylor Swift
Speaker 2: do it, oh honestly, because I am bloody exhausted. But
Speaker 2: it was the most fulfilling and fabulous thing ever, and
Speaker 2: I'm so glad that I get to do fabulous things
Speaker 2: like that. So, yes, we're back. We're back, High scrollers.
Speaker 2: How are you this week? Hope you will, Hope you're
Speaker 2: doing good. I'll tell you what though. One of the
Speaker 2: biggest things that I realized when I was on tour,
Speaker 2: I've got a bit of a petty gripe for everyone
Speaker 2: right about hotel rooms, staying in a hotel. I'll tell
Speaker 2: you the most frustrating thing about staying in a hotel. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I just have to ask, if anyone works in a hotel,
Speaker 2: can you tell me why you're so obsessed with wanting
Speaker 2: to clean my room?
Speaker 1: What do you mean?
Speaker 2: Bah? When I am in a hotel some days I
Speaker 2: just want one day to do nothing, and I put
Speaker 2: the little do not disturb on on the door, right,
Speaker 2: do not contact. I'm in here, I'm resting. I don't
Speaker 2: want to hear from you. I find when I do that.
Speaker 2: Hotels some for some reason, they don't respect they do
Speaker 2: not disturb button. Let me tell you I stayed in
Speaker 2: a hotel recently and I had do not disturb on.
Speaker 2: Don't clean my room. I don't need it. Okay, the
Speaker 2: sheets don't need cleaning. I've only been here one night.
Speaker 2: I don't need fresh towels. If I need fresh towls,
Speaker 2: I'll call you. Okay. This one hotel that I stayed
Speaker 2: in the other week, they first of all put a
Speaker 2: letter under the door, as many do, and said, hey,
Speaker 2: we tried to clean your room. We noticed the light
Speaker 2: was on, do not disturb. Don't worry. If you need
Speaker 2: your room clean, call us by four o'clock. We'll clean it.
Speaker 2: I'm like, sweet, good, awesome, no worries not calling you.
Speaker 2: I'm just in bed all day, don't worry about it.
Speaker 2: O'clock rolls around. I'm gonna call from reception.
Speaker 1: Hello, just checking.
Speaker 2: Did you want your ram clean. No, that's fine, okay,
Speaker 2: no worries, thank you? Bye? Hang up. I'm like, god,
Speaker 2: do not disturb on? Why are you calling me the
Speaker 2: starter as I already got the letter?
Speaker 1: Do you think it's like a safety thing? Maybe like
Speaker 1: they're just checking that you're okay?
Speaker 2: I mean you could be onto something there, but I
Speaker 2: feel like I'll let you know if I'm not okay,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And then a few hours later,
Speaker 2: I knock at the door, just a triple check, do
Speaker 2: not disturb? Still on, knock at the door. They're like, hello,
Speaker 2: just making sure you don't need any new supplies or
Speaker 2: towels or anything. No, I don't need anything. Shit you not.
Speaker 2: Half an hour later a man comes and knocks on
Speaker 2: the door. I went, are you kidding me? I opened
Speaker 2: the door. He goes, I just need to do a
Speaker 2: mini bar check for what reason? Darling? Do not disturb
Speaker 2: is on the door.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a bit much.
Speaker 2: You've contacted me five times? Do you really want to
Speaker 2: come in, darling? I got no clothes on. I'm sitting
Speaker 2: there in me unknees, my tits are out. Come in
Speaker 2: and clean my room, by all men. Give me a
Speaker 2: fresh pair of fucking sheets.
Speaker 1: I think they do not disturb things. Should be enough
Speaker 1: for them to know that you don't want anything, and
Speaker 1: then fair enough they'm slipping the letter under. It's like
Speaker 1: just in case. Yeah, I get that you like slept
Speaker 1: in and then you miss them or whatever, but then
Speaker 1: the call, Like that's a bit much. But maybe that's
Speaker 1: like a safety welfare check. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: like part of their protocol that they would have to
Speaker 1: do that. Yeah, like just to make sure that you
Speaker 1: know you're fine in the room. Yeah, but it is
Speaker 1: giving a bit much. But I wonder, you know, is
Speaker 1: that something they have to do. I don't know, or
Speaker 1: is it.
Speaker 2: Just that if you work in a hotel, let us know.
Speaker 2: Why are you so obsessed with trying to clean my room?
Speaker 2: Leave me alone? Anyway, I get it, I get it,
Speaker 2: they're just doing their job whatever, but also come on,
Speaker 2: I just felt it was a little bit much. So anyway,
Speaker 2: that was my biggest gripe with and if that's my
Speaker 2: biggest problem with going around the country and staying everywhere.
Speaker 2: Had a fabulous time we did. We just wrapped up
Speaker 2: shows obviously Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, mel and Stunning.
Speaker 1: What do you think of Adelaide.
Speaker 2: Love Adelaide, me too.
Speaker 1: So I went to Adelaide just after you were there.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, like you got that long after and
Speaker 1: I flew in. I didn't get there till like nine
Speaker 1: o'clock at night, and then I had a meeting at
Speaker 1: nine am in the morning, and then I was straight
Speaker 1: to the airport, so I didn't get to like experience
Speaker 1: Adelaide that much. There's actually fucking stunning. Yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: beautiful and cute, and it almost feels like a movie set,
Speaker 1: like in the CBD because it's so flat.
Speaker 2: I do feel Adelaide people are very gentle is the
Speaker 2: word that I would use with Adelaide people. Gentle.
Speaker 1: We had like a spare hour before we had to
Speaker 1: go to the airport and we went into Mecca in
Speaker 1: the mall. Because you went to the mall to right,
Speaker 1: used all the mall's balls. What's it all about?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like that's what you do if you
Speaker 2: go to Adelaide. You just see the Rundle mall ball.
Speaker 2: And now there's a giant pigeon as well. Did you
Speaker 2: see him?
Speaker 1: I think maybe.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: We didn't go as far as the balls because we
Speaker 1: came from the other end.
Speaker 2: You didn't go to the balls. You went all the
Speaker 2: way to Rundle Maul and you didn't see that.
Speaker 1: We came for the other way, and then we just
Speaker 1: went the furthest we went was Meccha and then met
Speaker 1: a few girls in Mecca who they were very nice
Speaker 1: and gentle, I will say. And then we went to
Speaker 1: mac in Maya or David Jones whatever it was in
Speaker 1: met the girl there. She was really nice as well.
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Adelaide just has a good feeling
Speaker 1: about it. I have to say, did you get to,
Speaker 1: like go out for dinner or anything there?
Speaker 2: Matt No, I on tour, I'm.
Speaker 1: A stuffy room.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I know it's not the healthiest thing in the world,
Speaker 2: but show days for me are very stressful and I
Speaker 2: don't really eat much. I know that's not a very
Speaker 2: good thing, but I actually try, well not try, but
Speaker 2: I just wake up on a show day, I try
Speaker 2: and have a big sleeping because I want as much
Speaker 2: energy as possible. The shows are usually you know what
Speaker 2: they are, obviously at nighttime, so I wake up as
Speaker 2: late as possible and I just pot around and I
Speaker 2: try not to eat much because one it makes me
Speaker 2: feel very sick because I get very nervous. You don't understand,
Speaker 2: before I go on stage, I am absolutely shitting myself.
Speaker 2: I have a conversation with myself every time before I
Speaker 2: go on stage, and I think, why am I doing this?
Speaker 2: I mean, no one's forcing me to do this. Why
Speaker 2: have I decided to put myself through this stress? And
Speaker 2: then you know, because it's I'm on stage for an hour,
Speaker 2: It's just me, and if anything goes wrong, like the
Speaker 2: entire room is going to know. So it's kind of
Speaker 2: very stressful. So I definitely have a lot of it.
Speaker 2: The adrenaline keeps me full in a way. And I'm
Speaker 2: not saying this is healthy or this is a good
Speaker 2: thing to do in the slightest, but the stress really
Speaker 2: takes over and I don't feel hungry because I'm so
Speaker 2: stressed and the adrenaline is pumping. So after the show,
Speaker 2: I just like to go home, you know, order food,
Speaker 2: whether that's room service or from a delivery app or something,
Speaker 2: and then I just sit in bed and eat and decompress,
Speaker 2: and I just don't even look at my phone and
Speaker 2: I just sit in silence and enjoy my food.
Speaker 1: Love that well, I think like again because we landed
Speaker 1: there so lately we didn't get to go out to
Speaker 1: any nice restaurants. But I think Adelaine actually has like
Speaker 1: lots of cool like funky restaurants and bars and like
Speaker 1: some rooftop bars. So I really want to go back
Speaker 1: and experience it. It's nice there.
Speaker 2: They have really nice wine as well, my favorite savvy b.
Speaker 2: You all know I love a savvy B. I had
Speaker 2: my favorite savvy b in Adelaide when I was doing my.
Speaker 1: Shoes, like Adelaide made one.
Speaker 2: I think, so I feel.
Speaker 1: Like most good wines.
Speaker 2: It was called Stones or Ray of Stones or Bay
Speaker 2: of Stones.
Speaker 1: I feel like most good wines. When you're like at
Speaker 1: any restaurant when you open the menu, it's like say
Speaker 1: or NSW like Hannah Valley.
Speaker 2: Valley or South Australia. Yeah, one country.
Speaker 1: But Adelaide, I just want to say, I love you.
Speaker 1: But it's got a good feeling there.
Speaker 2: I love Adelaide as well, but not much to do
Speaker 2: is there? What I mean, if you're in the city,
Speaker 2: what because you know, even a Perth was the same.
Speaker 2: I sort of found myself going Perth was very strange
Speaker 2: for me. Perth crowds were wild, and definitely the friendliest
Speaker 2: and most loving I will say about the Parth crowds.
Speaker 2: Perth just loved me and I love them. But tell
Speaker 2: me why subway opens at eleven thirty am and shuts
Speaker 2: at two pm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember back in the joy it's.
Speaker 2: Not even a shift.
Speaker 1: I remember back in the day. Some of you would
Speaker 1: maybe have been following me for the years lived there. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I was living in Sydney, I was like twenty
Speaker 1: two or twenty three, and I went to Perth and
Speaker 1: then I met this guy over there that was like
Speaker 1: living and working there and then so because I was
Speaker 1: a YouTuber and whatever I like, then basically lived in
Speaker 1: Perth with this guy. And that was one of the
Speaker 1: weirdest things that I thought about Perth was how much
Speaker 1: things were closed. And this was fucking eight years ago
Speaker 1: or something now, so it's probably different. But everything opened
Speaker 1: really late and then everything shut super fucking early. And
Speaker 1: then on a Sunday like good luck if you wanted
Speaker 1: to do anything.
Speaker 2: Yes, So that's the problem is I had my shows.
Speaker 2: I flew in the Saturday, had two shows the Saturday night,
Speaker 2: so I had Sunday and then I flew home Monday,
Speaker 2: and I thought Sunday, I'll, you know, spend my day
Speaker 2: exploring Perth and doing things. I as I said, love
Speaker 2: to get a delivery or a room service. The room
Speaker 2: service menu was lacking where I stayed, but I looked
Speaker 2: at the food delivery. Nothing literally like two places available,
Speaker 2: wasn't in the mid for any of them had I
Speaker 2: was like, well, I'll go and do the groceries. It
Speaker 2: was about twenty past four in the afternoon. The coal
Speaker 2: shut at five only opened at eleven am. I thought,
Speaker 2: granted I was in the CBD, so perhaps like if
Speaker 2: you are out outside the CBD, maybe things are open later,
Speaker 2: and maybe I get that.
Speaker 1: To get that for places like Perth, like because Perth
Speaker 1: is big, whereas like I'm from Newcastle, but everything's open
Speaker 1: in Newcastle, I will see Newcastle was tiny.
Speaker 2: The nightlife in Perth was unlike. It felt like King's
Speaker 2: Cross in Sydney ten fifteen years ago. It was heaving.
Speaker 2: The streets were heaving. After my shows. I was so exhausted.
Speaker 2: I was like, I can't go out tonight. But the
Speaker 2: clubs were, I mean the lines for the club. The
Speaker 2: nightlife in Perth is thriving over there, nothing like here
Speaker 2: in Sydney. I was really surprised, and Brisbane as well.
Speaker 2: I have to say Brisbane was so much fun. Like
Speaker 2: I felt like I went to the Wickham in Brisbane
Speaker 2: Gay Club, loved it, had the best time.
Speaker 1: There was actually a pub on the main road and
Speaker 1: then there's like a set of lights near it.
Speaker 2: Oh god, I mean is that every pub ever? I
Speaker 2: don't know, but it was so fun and I felt
Speaker 2: like all the gays in Brisbane were really nice and
Speaker 2: I just had like the best time in Brisbane and
Speaker 2: the Gold Coast. And I always have a good time
Speaker 2: in Melbourne, but I have a lot of friends in Melbourne,
Speaker 2: so I always have a good time there. But yeah,
Speaker 2: each each place had like a very different vibe for
Speaker 2: each crowd, but different in a good way, and everyone
Speaker 2: had like something good about them in their own way,
Speaker 2: if that makes sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Perthon is also really drunk as well. A lot of
Speaker 2: drunk people at my shows, which fabulous brings the vibe
Speaker 2: up in the room, but hilarious. And here's a thing.
Speaker 2: One of the shows was at six thirty pm on
Speaker 2: a Saturday, which is quite early for a comedy show.
Speaker 2: As we've spoken before, some of my show's been at
Speaker 2: nine to thirty PM, but six thirty is quite early,
Speaker 2: and I thought, I'm sure how this is going to go?
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 2: I felt like everyone in the room was drunk at
Speaker 2: six point thirty, which makes sense because everything over there
Speaker 2: is shut it too, so they've been drinking ever since,
Speaker 2: so they were ready for a party. But yeah, it's
Speaker 2: just funny that each city had some different kind of
Speaker 2: culture about them, and I really liked I really liked
Speaker 2: experiencing them all. Well, it's time for our royal flush
Speaker 2: of the week. The best thing we've seen on the
Speaker 2: internet this week, or sometimes just in general, because Brittany
Speaker 2: likes to bend the rules here and just talk to
Speaker 2: us about all were rings, which, by the way, how's
Speaker 2: that going?
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I don't have it on right now. I oh, okay,
Speaker 1: this is only my opinion. Though some people love it.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't recommend the or ring. Okay, it's a bit
Speaker 1: of a novelty thing, which when you look at it,
Speaker 1: it is a fucking novelty item. I've been forgetting to
Speaker 1: charge it and wear it. It is good, but then
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's kind of like an Apple watch,
Speaker 1: like you kind of get over it and then you
Speaker 1: forget to fucking wear it.
Speaker 2: So for anyone who didn't hear that other episode, this
Speaker 2: is a few months ago. Now you got the aura ring.
Speaker 2: It tracks your sleep, your steps, your heart rate, your health.
Speaker 1: Thro all that shit. But then I don't know, I
Speaker 1: kind of got over it, but I feel like it's
Speaker 1: gonna be one of those things that I'll put it
Speaker 1: on again, like next week, and then get obsessed with
Speaker 1: it again. Yeah kind of thing. But I've got a
Speaker 1: new obsession, okay, for my Royal Flush, which I spoke
Speaker 1: about briefly in another episode of ours. But I don't
Speaker 1: think it was my Royal flush. I don't think what
Speaker 1: was it. I got the Meta headset.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, you only spoke about this a couple of
Speaker 2: weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's my Royal flush. And look, I'm not
Speaker 1: bending the rules by saying that's my Royal flush because
Speaker 1: I saw people on TikTok promoting it. Okay, so it
Speaker 1: is off the internet.
Speaker 2: So this is the Meta one, not the Apple one.
Speaker 1: The Apple one. So the Apple Vision pro thing that
Speaker 1: you've seen, like, it's essentially the same thing. Okay, it's
Speaker 1: a headset. It was like a thousand and something dollars.
Speaker 2: Is it called an Oculus, Yeah, I.
Speaker 1: Think so, But this is the Metaquest three. It's a
Speaker 1: new one. I think Oculus was the number two, okay.
Speaker 1: And it's virtual reality, so it's a gaming headset that
Speaker 1: you put on. You just connect to Wi Fi to
Speaker 1: use it. And I was gonna bring it today, but
Speaker 1: then I thought maybe we'd run out of time. I'll
Speaker 1: bring in another time, mat okay. And it's virtual reality,
Speaker 1: so you get an app on your phone that's where
Speaker 1: you can download all the apps for it. But then
Speaker 1: when you're using it, you don't need to use your phone.
Speaker 1: You put it on and the screen comes up in
Speaker 1: front of your eyes, like you can literally see the
Speaker 1: rest of the room. And then there's a screen and
Speaker 1: you use your hands to like tap everything. You can
Speaker 1: go on Messenger, Instagram, WhatsApp, like you can do everything
Speaker 1: on your phone on this headset.
Speaker 2: That is what I'd use it for. It's just DMS
Speaker 2: with me friends, not playing games, and you've gone.
Speaker 1: Shows on there, and then you can go into like
Speaker 1: immersive mode. I think it is, so like you can
Speaker 1: see the room that you're in plus the screen and
Speaker 1: a big keyboard in front of your face or you
Speaker 1: can enter like immersive mode where it gets rid of
Speaker 1: the world that you're in, and then you're in like
Speaker 1: the metaverse world so you can't see anything. Wow, and
Speaker 1: I fucking I'm obsessed. This is my new obsession. I'm
Speaker 1: far more obsessed with this than I was the Aura
Speaker 1: Ring because it quite literally feels it's virtual reality. You
Speaker 1: are in another fucking world. And the thing that I'm
Speaker 1: actually loving the most about it, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: fun games, Like I've downloaded all the games Bartender Simulator.
Speaker 1: Here's me with the fucking job related fucking games again,
Speaker 1: Bartender Simulator. I've got one where you're a bouncer a
Speaker 1: nightclub and people are lining up and then they come
Speaker 1: up and you choose whether they get let in or not,
Speaker 1: and you can like bash them, like, you can shoot them,
Speaker 1: you can shave their head like it's really really fun.
Speaker 1: But the thing that I'm actually loving the most is
Speaker 1: working out in virtual reality. So there's all exercise apps.
Speaker 1: There's one game that you would really like, Matt or
Speaker 1: anyone would like. It's called Beat Saber and you've probably
Speaker 1: seen people playing it on TikTok where you're like in
Speaker 1: this immersive world and all these cubes come flying at
Speaker 1: you and you have to swipe them with like a
Speaker 1: saber to the beat to the song, and it's like
Speaker 1: really fun. But then the two games that I've got
Speaker 1: that I if any of you have the headset, you
Speaker 1: absolutely need to get if you want to do exercise.
Speaker 1: The first one I downloaded was the you know, Les
Speaker 1: Mills Body Combat, So again it's like all these punching
Speaker 1: things come like flying towards you and you got to
Speaker 1: punch them out the way I drip with sweat. And
Speaker 1: there's like hundreds of exercises to choose from. But the
Speaker 1: one that I actually just downloaded is fit x ARE
Speaker 1: and it's better than Les meals just saying it's just
Speaker 1: I can't even explain how good it is. When you
Speaker 1: put the headset on and play it, you'll.
Speaker 2: See, Okay, you're gonna have to bring.
Speaker 1: It in and I will because you can even like, look,
Speaker 1: I've been looking up on TikTok like fit XR videos
Speaker 1: and it doesn't look as fun as it actually is
Speaker 1: when you're in the game. I even loaded I downloaded
Speaker 1: one that's like boxing and it's designed for fitness, but
Speaker 1: you're actually in a ring versuing like a robot opponent,
Speaker 1: but it looks like a real person and it's actually
Speaker 1: scary because they're right there in your face and it
Speaker 1: feels real. And last night I accidentally punched the wall
Speaker 1: in our house and AJ's like, what the fuck was that?
Speaker 1: Because I was getting scared, like running away from this guy.
Speaker 1: Now I need to bring it in so you can
Speaker 1: do the boxing one because it's a real person, like
Speaker 1: it feels so real. Anyway, that's my Royal Flows.
Speaker 2: The Jurassic Park one that I'll be playing as well.
Speaker 1: Oh, there's so many games that you can get shooting games,
Speaker 1: like all the games you can get on like a
Speaker 1: PlayStation or Xbox. You can get and you're in the game,
Speaker 1: niceeing me. I even got a nightclub simulator, so you're
Speaker 1: in a nightclub and you can just like and you
Speaker 1: can bash people like shoot, no.
Speaker 2: Are you laughing about this? I'm going this is traumatic.
Speaker 1: It is video games?
Speaker 2: Yeah sure, yeah, yeah no.
Speaker 1: That's my lash is the meta thing mainly for the exercising.
Speaker 1: I'm loving it. I'm doing it every day, but.
Speaker 2: Also bashing people in a.
Speaker 1: Nightclub, yeah, and choosing not to let them in.
Speaker 2: Okay, well we'll talk about that after. I've got a
Speaker 2: great therapist, you could go and see just sort that out.
Speaker 2: Because I'm a bit worried about you getting so excited
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: I had to like games. I love games.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you can love games, but there are games.
Speaker 2: I mean play Tic tac toe. Darn it, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean. Like you being like it's so cool
Speaker 2: you could bash people in a nightclub, I'm like, you're
Speaker 2: listening to yourself. Well, anyway, my royal flash is away. Look,
Speaker 2: it's not that exciting to you maybe or to any
Speaker 2: of our scholars. It's so exciting to me. Let me
Speaker 2: tell you. Air fryer recipes are taking over my for
Speaker 2: you page at the moment. On both Instagram and TikTok,
Speaker 2: I'm seeing a lot of air fryer recipes. I love
Speaker 2: that and I love an air remember, like back in Lockdown.
Speaker 2: I think when Lockdown first started, the air fryers went
Speaker 2: viral and there were lots of air fry recipes on
Speaker 2: our for you pages in that time. Well, my for
Speaker 2: you page is having a resurgence, I think because when
Speaker 2: I was on tour and I had so much time
Speaker 2: to just sit there and scroll and decompress. I would
Speaker 2: just really love the recipe videos of the air fry recipe.
Speaker 2: So now it's trained my algorithm to like keep feeding
Speaker 2: me that content like little puff pastry pizzas in the
Speaker 2: air fry ten minute air fry recipes. Anyway, I have assessed,
Speaker 2: and I was thinking about it. Actually I cannot remember, well,
Speaker 2: I actually used the oven last night, if I'm honest,
Speaker 2: but I cannot remember the last time I used an
Speaker 2: oven too.
Speaker 1: I fucking hate ovens. We don't even have an oven
Speaker 1: where we're living right now.
Speaker 2: I really yeah, even the stove. I think I don't
Speaker 2: use that very often. If you know what I love
Speaker 2: is when now food is now coming with air fryer
Speaker 2: instructions on the back. If you notice that, because previously
Speaker 2: you just read the oven instructions and maybe take two
Speaker 2: minutes off because it's more concentrated, right, yea, just take
Speaker 2: two minutes off except the chicken. I'd always make sure
Speaker 2: that the chicken went in for the time it was
Speaker 2: meant to. But now products will have an air fryer
Speaker 2: recipe on the back.
Speaker 1: Changed. I'll tell you what as well. AJ and I
Speaker 1: are currently renovating our house and we have already purchased,
Speaker 1: like all of our new appliances for when the kitchen's done,
Speaker 1: so like they're already all ordered and we're getting a
Speaker 1: brand new oven. Ovens now are also air fryers, So
Speaker 1: I don't remember if we ended up getting like a
Speaker 1: smeg oven. I think it might be smag And it's
Speaker 1: an oven slash air fryer, so when you put something in,
Speaker 1: you can turn it to the air fryer settings.
Speaker 2: That's fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that, so we won't need an air
Speaker 1: fryer anymore because it's in the oven. But then it's
Speaker 1: just got me thinking an oven is just an air fryer,
Speaker 1: but it's lower. Really Yeah, I'm like, what's the point
Speaker 1: of having an oven that has an air fryer setting.
Speaker 1: Isn't it the same fucking thing, Just one's quicker, I know. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to using that.
Speaker 2: I like the air fry because you don't have to
Speaker 2: use any like oils and you know, you don't, you know,
Speaker 2: just spray everything down or put baking paper and things
Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, love that, you know what I hate? Though,
Speaker 2: I love an air fryer. I fucking hate a slow cooker. Oh,
Speaker 2: I don't understand the slow cooker recipes, get off, get
Speaker 2: off the time. I don't know, but slow cookers for me,
Speaker 2: the thought of meat sitting in a slow cooker for
Speaker 2: twelve hours while I'm at work all day, first of all,
Speaker 2: gives me anxiety because you've got the appliance running at home.
Speaker 2: It'll burn your house down. Second of all, the meat
Speaker 2: just stewing for twelve hours, Like especially when they do
Speaker 2: chicken curries and things in a slow cooker, I go,
Speaker 2: I need that chicken seed in a pan baked, and
Speaker 2: I need to make sure that chicken you're gonna get salmonella.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. So I get I'm funny
Speaker 2: about slow cookers. I don't know how slow cooker people.
Speaker 2: There are people out there who have whole TikTok accounts
Speaker 2: dedicated to slow cookers. I think to myself, You're.
Speaker 1: See, the only thing I can get around a slow
Speaker 1: cool is like a slow cooked lamb shank. Like that's
Speaker 1: where I can get around it when it's the lamb
Speaker 1: shank has been marinating in the juice all day, Because
Speaker 1: then you pull it out and it literally just falls
Speaker 1: off the bone and it's so juicy, and my mouth
Speaker 1: is watering. I really love lamb. I love lamb cutlet.
Speaker 2: I don't eat lamb.
Speaker 1: I love lamb cutlets. Fucking yes, crumbed lamb cutlets.
Speaker 2: Give me that Lamb. I'm not in any way someone
Speaker 2: one thing like the animals. Obviously, I eat all the meats,
Speaker 2: but for some reason, I do draw the line at lamb.
Speaker 1: See I draw the line at pork.
Speaker 2: Really, so you don't have bacon.
Speaker 1: So I eat bacon, like a slice of bacon on
Speaker 1: a bacon egg roll or whatever, but like pork cutlets
Speaker 1: or pork steaks, dry fucking gross, lamb fucking give it
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 2: I'm with you on that.
Speaker 1: With the rosemary and salt.
Speaker 2: There you go. I'm even cutting up more pizza that
Speaker 2: are put in the air frayer at the moment.
Speaker 1: Hey, J cook sausages in there.
Speaker 2: No, he's boiling them air fry.
Speaker 1: The air fright sausages.
Speaker 2: I've done Kranskis in the air fry. Yeah, quite nice
Speaker 2: because they go quite crispy on the outside. If you
Speaker 2: get the ones with the cheese inside, the melting on
Speaker 2: the inside, its gorgeous. Yeah. Now, I'm all about an
Speaker 2: air fry. So the air fry videos are my Royal
Speaker 2: Flush of the week.
Speaker 1: Before we get onto the next topic. Yeah, I've got
Speaker 1: a great investment that everyone can make. But I will
Speaker 1: say it's not cheap, okay, but if you want to
Speaker 1: save up and get something nice for your home. On
Speaker 1: the topic of our kitchen, I have purchased like new
Speaker 1: pots and pants and stuff for when our kitchen's done.
Speaker 1: Crumble cookware. I mean, I know it's not the best,
Speaker 1: Like you see all these things lately. It's like you
Speaker 1: need to cook in cast iron, like you're supposed to
Speaker 1: cook in cast iron, not the non stick, because the
Speaker 1: non stick has the fucking chemicals in it and you're
Speaker 1: eating microplastics and whatever when aren't we? Anyway, I bought
Speaker 1: Crumble Cookware because I've been getting their ads. They make
Speaker 1: the most beautiful pots and pans, and.
Speaker 2: Is Selena Gomez, who promotes them a sponsored.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it might be similar looking. I think
Speaker 1: this is a New Zealand brand or Australian stunning. Really,
Speaker 1: I got like the non stick range. I know we're
Speaker 1: not supposed to fuck and have non stick, but anyway,
Speaker 1: I got like the beige color, like it's all like
Speaker 1: soft pastel colors looks really beautiful. But the non stick
Speaker 1: is amazing, and they all come with it in Melbourne.
Speaker 1: Founded in Melbourne. There you go, and they all come
Speaker 1: with a matching wooden spoon that sits on the handle
Speaker 1: so that while you're waiting you put it in this
Speaker 1: little holder. And I just really love it. Like I've
Speaker 1: never gotten into pots and pans in my life because
Speaker 1: I've never given a fuck. But now that I'm getting
Speaker 1: a new kitchen, I want like nice things. Usually I
Speaker 1: just have like the twenty dollars fucking non stick pan
Speaker 1: from Kmart that is definitely stick, you know. So I
Speaker 1: finally invested. It was a lot of money, I will say,
Speaker 1: like I think I spent like a thousand fucking dollars,
Speaker 1: but really worth it. If you want to save up
Speaker 1: and get some nice pots and pants, or if you
Speaker 1: have like someone that you want to buy a special
Speaker 1: gift for that like loves Home Weares or whatever, check
Speaker 1: them out. Crumble Crumbled or Crumble Cookware highly recommend and
Speaker 1: it came really fast too. So that's my little shout
Speaker 1: out to a small business.
Speaker 2: Okay, nice, thanks for that. I personally couldn't care less cookware.
Speaker 2: I've been using the same came up pan for seven years,
Speaker 2: that was me and it's doing well.
Speaker 1: It's all scratched.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all the middles, all.
Speaker 1: Silver, microplastics everywhere.
Speaker 2: Ah well, you know there's microplastics in the air. Let's
Speaker 2: just get on with it, you know. Right. I'm going
Speaker 2: at a bit of a rant today, got something to
Speaker 2: rant about, and so sorry, but it's about Instagram and
Speaker 2: I'm not happy, not happy about what's happened.
Speaker 1: I think I saw this.
Speaker 2: Look, there's been a couple of updates recently. One of
Speaker 2: them is a new update which has to do with
Speaker 2: the notes. Right. We all know we have the notes
Speaker 2: that we can pop in our dms and it like
Speaker 2: goes to our friends and you can write a little
Speaker 2: short note. Right, What what feature is that notes? Is
Speaker 2: it called notes?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway you put a little you can put music,
Speaker 2: or you can put a little note. Yes, anyway. The
Speaker 2: point is they brought it out on go No. I
Speaker 2: love notes. I love it. I use it quite often.
Speaker 2: It's great. What I will say though, is for anyone
Speaker 2: who uses the notes feature on Instagram, I need to
Speaker 2: say to any content creators and influencers, who are is.
Speaker 1: It when you're open your DMS and you lot swipe
Speaker 1: and you can.
Speaker 2: See front of the top saying little messages or songs. Right. Yes,
Speaker 2: So the thing is those notes only go to follow
Speaker 2: as you follow back. Okay, I don't think anyone knows
Speaker 2: that because my my like notes are sometimes filled with
Speaker 2: like new reel just posted a new TikTok or like
Speaker 2: link for this in my stories, as if it's like
Speaker 2: talk to like their mass following, when it's just going
Speaker 2: to the people who follow them back. So I think
Speaker 2: that they don't understand, or like they'll say, like leave
Speaker 2: an emoji on my new reel. I'm going, babe, I'm
Speaker 2: not doing that, like we know each other, Like I'm
Speaker 2: not going to put a love heart three pink love
Speaker 2: hearts on your photo, Like do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: I don't think people realize that. So can we just
Speaker 2: clear that up and say that no, it's do not
Speaker 2: go to all of your following. I wish they would, Yes, Instagram,
Speaker 2: I wish they would, because I do like that you
Speaker 2: can change it to be either close friends or just
Speaker 2: people you follow who follow you back. But I would
Speaker 2: love an everyone feature as well, But unfortunately I think
Speaker 2: we would just see self promotion there all the time,
Speaker 2: which I hate. I love self promotion, oh same, but
Speaker 2: like tastefully right, because I'll get into another form of
Speaker 2: self promotion that has This is half the reason I'm
Speaker 2: pissed off. So first of all, you may have seen
Speaker 2: me make a TikTok because I was gas lid into
Speaker 2: thinking that Reputation Taylor's version was coming, and Taylor Swift's
Speaker 2: Reputation era photo that she posted three hundred and forty
Speaker 2: nine weeks ago appeared at the top of my feed
Speaker 2: when I woke up one morning last week, and I
Speaker 2: obviously freaked out, made a TikTok about it, put her
Speaker 2: on my Instagram stories, was like, what does this mean?
Speaker 2: I thought originally she had unarchived some old posts because
Speaker 2: the post I saw was the track list from her
Speaker 2: original album and it said Reputation in three days is
Speaker 2: coming in three days. And I've obviously just woken up
Speaker 2: I've seen that, and I've gone, oh my god, She's
Speaker 2: announced Reputation, which is obviously the album that the most
Speaker 2: of the Swifties are waiting for.
Speaker 1: It's her best album, oh for sure, It's the album
Speaker 1: that got when and if she redoes it, she does
Speaker 1: the songs a billion times better. Those songs are already
Speaker 1: fucking great.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, and I can't wait for the new ones
Speaker 2: as well. So I've obviously freaked out about that. I
Speaker 2: then found out that it had nothing to do with
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift at all, and basically Instagram had launched this
Speaker 2: new notes feature where you can now do those notes
Speaker 2: that you do in your dms, but you can now
Speaker 2: do them on people's posts. And what it does is
Speaker 2: if I go back two years in your Instagram Brittany
Speaker 2: and I and I click on it and I decide
Speaker 2: to add a note to it, it will share that
Speaker 2: post to my followers feeds who I follow back. Right,
Speaker 2: So here's the next clarification. I'm then seeing all of
Speaker 2: these basic bitch content creators go back to their old
Speaker 2: posts that they want a little bit more engagement on
Speaker 2: and leave a note on their own post. Tragic to
Speaker 2: then bump it back into the feed. But the thing
Speaker 2: is it only is going to the followers who follow
Speaker 2: you back, so mutual connection this update, right?
Speaker 1: What are they trying to do here?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 1: I have you saw this post from Taylor Swift three
Speaker 1: hundred and forty weeks ago on your feed because someone
Speaker 1: you follow that follows you back put it on their notes.
Speaker 2: Yes, that what the fuck? Okay, So here's my biggest
Speaker 2: problem with it is now that people have now worked
Speaker 2: out how to use this feature and the self promo
Speaker 2: aspect has like gone because I don't think that would
Speaker 2: have worked because it's only going to the people who
Speaker 2: follow you back. I think they thought that sharing the
Speaker 2: note would go to all of their followers and they
Speaker 2: get this like second boost of engagement, but that's obviously
Speaker 2: not going to happen. So now what I'm getting in
Speaker 2: my feed is people are using the notes feature, which
Speaker 2: I'm sure Instagram is really happy about. The problem is
Speaker 2: my feed is now full of people and things that
Speaker 2: I don't follow, and I don't follow for a reason.
Speaker 2: For example, I'm gonna throw Billy Eilish out there. Love her,
Speaker 2: love some of her music, not the biggest fan. I
Speaker 2: don't follow Billy Eilish on Instagram. Nill interest in my opinion, right,
Speaker 2: tell me why? Someone I follow is a huge Billie
Speaker 2: Eilish fan and has been adding notes to all of
Speaker 2: Billie Eilish's posts. So now my is flooded with Billie Eilish.
Speaker 2: I mean nothing against makes sense to me. I don't care.
Speaker 2: But she's just the example that I'm using. Now take
Speaker 2: that and apply it to all of these celebrities that
Speaker 2: all of these people who I follow are adding notes to.
Speaker 2: My feed is now full of people who I don't follow,
Speaker 2: which I'm already snoozing the suggested content that keeps popping
Speaker 2: up because you know you can snooze that for thirty
Speaker 2: days at a time, so I often snooze that when
Speaker 2: that comes up. I feel like, where the fuck are
Speaker 2: the people that I follow on Instagram? They're not on
Speaker 2: my feed because it's full of everyone else's posts, like they.
Speaker 1: Must just be testing out something new with their.
Speaker 2: I feel them Instagram is doing everything but what we
Speaker 2: want them to. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just noticed as well yesterday. You know how we
Speaker 1: have our broadcast channels on our Instagram h when and
Speaker 1: if you don't know what that is, you should join
Speaker 1: both of our broadcast channels. It's where we can DM
Speaker 1: you just directly.
Speaker 2: Mine's been lacking lately, but Britney's goes off.
Speaker 1: I forget about it for a bit and then I
Speaker 1: hear it. I was posting in there last night and
Speaker 1: I noticed down the bottom you can now go live
Speaker 1: in your broadcast channel.
Speaker 2: Oh that's fun.
Speaker 1: So when I go into my cash grab as one,
Speaker 1: there's a little button down the bottom and says go live.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: How cool is that? So you can go live to
Speaker 1: like a private audience.
Speaker 2: Yes, you can also now go live to your close
Speaker 2: friends only. That's pretty cool, which I did and no
Speaker 2: one joined, so I won't be doing that again. What
Speaker 2: time was it, I don't know, but yeah, Look, I
Speaker 2: love Instagram. Out of all the apps that we have,
Speaker 2: Instagram is by far my favorite. I love it. I
Speaker 2: feel like it's also.
Speaker 1: Where connection to it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I also feel like it's where I'm most myself
Speaker 2: as well, and I really love connecting with my audience
Speaker 2: on Instagram. Instagram is great.
Speaker 1: I love Instagram, Instagram Stories. I'll never let go of it.
Speaker 1: What like, I'll never let go of my attachment to
Speaker 1: Instagram Stories.
Speaker 2: For sure, for sure. But I'm also like, what the
Speaker 2: fuck are you doing? Can we please just get it
Speaker 2: back to the people who are Get back.
Speaker 1: To the chronological fucking feed, which the people they have.
Speaker 2: Now, you can set your feed to that, but each
Speaker 2: time you close the app, it resets back to the default,
Speaker 2: which is just fuckery. I'm like, I just want to
Speaker 2: be able to select chronological order and keep it that
Speaker 2: way forever, because I think the thing is we use
Speaker 2: apps very differently, and I don't understand why they won't
Speaker 2: listen to the entire world that is saying we want
Speaker 2: chronological order, because I feel like them changing the algorithm
Speaker 2: to serve us the content they think we want. First
Speaker 2: of all, it's not what we want. That's why I
Speaker 2: keep snoozing the fucking suggestions. And also I'm now pissed
Speaker 2: off about seeing Billie Eilish in my feed when I
Speaker 2: don't follow her. I think Instagram has to step away
Speaker 2: from trying to be TikTok and keep up with TikTok,
Speaker 2: be your own thing that we need, because you can't
Speaker 2: just copy or do what you know TikTok. For me,
Speaker 2: I love the fact that I get random shit on
Speaker 2: my feet because that is what I want from that app.
Speaker 2: I do not want that from Instagram. I want Instagram
Speaker 2: to be Instagram and be good at it.
Speaker 1: I need to bring back photos like. One thing that
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do, like I just started last week,
Speaker 1: is post more photos to my Instagram like carousels, just
Speaker 1: random shit. Yes, just like for myself to kind of
Speaker 1: look back on and it's cool to like show, I
Speaker 1: guess different things in your life rather than making a
Speaker 1: whole real And I would love Instagram to be more
Speaker 1: about photos again, yeah, because we just forget to take
Speaker 1: photos now because it's all about fucking videos of everything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I still love a photo dump, but I
Speaker 2: think it serves a different purpose.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I know when I post a photo dump, it's
Speaker 2: going to get less engagement. It's not going to go anywhere.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not going to get anything. Also want to
Speaker 1: post it for myself and my own memories, but it's.
Speaker 2: Good for community building as well, do you know what
Speaker 2: I mean? Like I post my photo dumps for my
Speaker 2: followers who I you know, who I know are engaged
Speaker 2: and will enjoy that, whereas there are a lot of
Speaker 2: people who won't enjoy that. But it doesn't really bother me.
Speaker 2: I kind of try and use all of the features
Speaker 2: across Instagram because I get it. And as I said,
Speaker 2: I love Instagram like I love doing all the things
Speaker 2: they have the broadcast channel, even if it takes me
Speaker 2: a while to get on board. I remember when Instagram
Speaker 2: Stories first came out. I said, Nah, they're just copying Snapchat.
Speaker 2: I'll never leave Snapchat. And now look at what's happened,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? And so I feel like
Speaker 2: I just want my Instagram feed to be the people
Speaker 2: that I follow and not randoms. And look, I could
Speaker 2: complain about TikTok as well, no creator fund. Here's the
Speaker 2: thing I have to say, the media literacy is that
Speaker 2: what you call it? Around the conversations that I'm seeing
Speaker 2: on TikTok at the moment, particularly surrounding how much people
Speaker 2: make from TikTok is really mind blowing because as an
Speaker 2: Australian it's so inaccurate. So I'll see, like maybe American
Speaker 2: or UK content creators I think, post a video where
Speaker 2: they go, hey everyone, like today I made three hundred
Speaker 2: dollars from the creator fund and like last week I
Speaker 2: made five thousand dollars off this viral video.
Speaker 1: No sense to me why and for anyone listening if
Speaker 1: you don't know what the creative fund is on TikTok,
Speaker 1: in like America and UK and stuff, you get paid
Speaker 1: for the amount of people that see your videos, the
Speaker 1: same way that we used to get paid for our
Speaker 1: YouTube videos because of the ads, Like it's all got
Speaker 1: to do with the ads. So TikTokers in the UK
Speaker 1: and America and stuff, they're getting paid for every single video.
Speaker 1: Mind you, it might be fucking five dollars for this
Speaker 1: one and five hundred dollars for that one, but they're
Speaker 1: getting paid because there's ads running in between all of
Speaker 1: the things. It just doesn't exist in Australia. It just
Speaker 1: makes no sense. Like not that I give a fuck
Speaker 1: about getting paid for tiktoks, but it makes no sense
Speaker 1: why it is like that in other countries but just
Speaker 1: simply not in Australia. Like in Australia you get paid
Speaker 1: from YouTube because of the ads as the same as
Speaker 1: everyone else. Why is it not in Australia.
Speaker 2: But what I'm trying to say is the amount of
Speaker 2: ads that are now on my TikTok yet we don't
Speaker 2: have a creative fund in Australia is mind boggling. It's
Speaker 2: now even I will finish watching a TikTok and an
Speaker 2: ad plays at the end and I can't skip it.
Speaker 2: I'm like, what is going on here?
Speaker 1: And I would say I'd be happy with.
Speaker 2: That if you would chucking me a bit and a
Speaker 2: little bit of Bob Dull, like chuck me a couple dollars,
Speaker 2: and I did the maths, like looking at one of
Speaker 2: these American girls that I follow, who she did like
Speaker 2: a little expose on how much she's made honey, With
Speaker 2: the amount of views I've had in the last three months,
Speaker 2: I would have made around thirty thousand dollars Australian if
Speaker 2: what she was saying was true compared to the videos.
Speaker 2: I had a really good couple months here on TikTok.
Speaker 2: I would just say the videos have been popping off.
Speaker 2: I really been hitting the clid over there, and I
Speaker 2: would have made that much money. But we don't have
Speaker 2: a creative fund, and so annoy The annoying thing is,
Speaker 2: is TikTok, what are you doing serving me an ad
Speaker 2: after every third video and when you log on and
Speaker 2: in between videos and at the end of videos, and
Speaker 2: when you go on someone's profile now and scroll through
Speaker 2: their videos, there's ads in the middle as well. I'm like,
Speaker 2: get your ruddy little ads off my videos.
Speaker 1: She took Australia ever pay me? Have they ever said
Speaker 1: why there's no like creative fund but they're easy in
Speaker 1: other countries.
Speaker 2: No, but they've been a bit wishy washy when I've
Speaker 2: asked them directly and they said, oh, you know it's
Speaker 2: it's coming, it's coming, Well, bitch, where is it? Come on?
Speaker 2: Step step you pussies up. Let's let's get let's get
Speaker 2: some coin. Because what's annoying though, is like when that
Speaker 2: there's this that girl that did that that kind of
Speaker 2: first trappy video in the car in Melbourne, Leo whatever
Speaker 2: that song is, what's.
Speaker 1: Her name, Lea Holton?
Speaker 2: Sure so people made videos about her, going wow, she's
Speaker 2: made ninety thousand dollars from that video because it got
Speaker 2: millions and millions and millions of views and was super
Speaker 2: super viral, and well know she's in Australia. She didn't
Speaker 2: get a baby, so people are just making up all
Speaker 2: these stuff saying, oh my god, this money that everyone's making.
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, not here in.
Speaker 1: Australia, loud, she got nothing.
Speaker 2: So I'm a bit over that because I understand not
Speaker 2: having a creative fun. I'm not expecting one. I don't
Speaker 2: really care if other countries have it and we don't,
Speaker 2: but get your ads off my videos. Stop making us
Speaker 2: all watch the ads if you're not going to cut
Speaker 2: us our checks studying and Instagram serve us what we
Speaker 2: want and just do your own thing. And I would
Speaker 2: love Instagram to just come up with something like I
Speaker 2: understand that they have to compete with TikTok. I personally,
Speaker 2: in my opinion, don't think Instagram's going anywhere. My engagement
Speaker 2: is better than ever on Instagram. Thousands and thousands more
Speaker 2: people are watching my stories than usual, millions more reach,
Speaker 2: my reels go viral the time, I'm getting new followers
Speaker 2: every day. The Instagram account is thriving, my engagements through
Speaker 2: the roof. I'm very happy with all of that. My
Speaker 2: thing is, I don't think Instagram's going anywhere, but I
Speaker 2: would love for them to come up with their own thing,
Speaker 2: a new thing that makes us go, oh my god,
Speaker 2: we all want to use this app because of this thing.
Speaker 2: And sorry, I don't have any ideas for you. I
Speaker 2: don't think of something, but like, did we really need
Speaker 2: the notes thing? No? Sorry, I said, I was going
Speaker 2: on around. I've spoken so much.
Speaker 1: You're really fashionate.
Speaker 2: But and I know two of my lovely, lovely contacts
Speaker 2: at Instagram are fans of high scrollers and listen to
Speaker 2: the podcast. I love you, and I'm sure I'll get
Speaker 2: a text from both of you about this. But if
Speaker 2: you want me to write a formal email that you
Speaker 2: can take to Meta HQ, I me no, because I'm
Speaker 2: happy to put my thoughts down in words, My darlings. Anyway,
Speaker 2: I love Instagram, but Jesus, get Billie Eilish off my feet.
Speaker 2: Anyway you want to say your line?
Speaker 1: Another episode done and dusted, do you.
Speaker 2: Go, My darlings, Thanks for listening, Scrollers, don't forget. We
Speaker 2: upload every Tuesday and we have close friends on Fridays.
Speaker 2: We had a really fun close Friends last week about
Speaker 2: one of Brittany's neighbors.
Speaker 1: Make sure to listen to Close Friends if you don't, because.
Speaker 2: You're on to get in half the story. If you
Speaker 2: only listen to the main episode.
Speaker 1: And comment pine cones on our most recent posts, No
Speaker 1: you don't.
Speaker 2: We find a new comment.
Speaker 1: To Okay, what comment should they do this week? Because
Speaker 1: I'm still sometimes getting pine cones from like weeks and
Speaker 1: weeks and weeks ago. And I love that I posted
Speaker 1: something the other day and you just wrote pine cone Okay.
Speaker 2: Probably why a my engagement so high? Actually, it's all
Speaker 2: the scrollers coming over.
Speaker 1: Well, if you've listened this far. Let's do another game.
Speaker 1: What should they comment on our recent Can we make.
