Speaker 1: Apodjake Production. Welcome to another episode of am I.

2
00:00:24,401 --> 00:00:26,601
Speaker 2: Have Had Mom? Podcast.

3
00:00:27,241 --> 00:00:28,961
Speaker 1: We constantly asked the same question.

4
00:00:29,081 --> 00:00:31,361
Speaker 3: It's day in, day out for gift that keeps on

5
00:00:31,401 --> 00:00:34,761
Speaker 3: giving our kids. They just twenty four hours a day,

6
00:00:34,801 --> 00:00:35,761
Speaker 3: seven days a week.

7
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,241
Speaker 1: I had a moment last night of going, oh my god,

8
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,361
Speaker 1: it is so noisy in this It's so noisy. The

9
00:00:43,441 --> 00:00:46,921
Speaker 1: girls came down for dinner, had dinner, then wanted to

10
00:00:46,961 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: tell us about the whole day, which is great. I'm

11
00:00:49,081 --> 00:00:52,761
Speaker 1: so thankful when it's not at eleven pm and we're

12
00:00:52,801 --> 00:00:54,441
Speaker 1: telling us all about this. But it was one of

13
00:00:54,441 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: those situations where one was telling a story and then

14
00:00:56,601 --> 00:00:58,401
Speaker 1: the other one wanted to get into and then it

15
00:00:58,441 --> 00:01:00,641
Speaker 1: was like, no, stop, it's my story, and there's all

16
00:01:00,681 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: this going on, and literally it got to the end

17
00:01:03,561 --> 00:01:06,961
Speaker 1: and then someone's put me music on and then someone singing,

18
00:01:07,001 --> 00:01:10,161
Speaker 1: and I just went, whoa, it's too loud in here.

19
00:01:10,321 --> 00:01:13,201
Speaker 1: I feel like I've just been through a storm.

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: So loud in here? Why is everyone yelling, especially at

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,121
Speaker 2: the end of the day too.

22
00:01:18,401 --> 00:01:21,361
Speaker 3: I've spoken about this obviously, like you said, eleven pm

23
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,561
Speaker 3: at night, these conversations. My girls are not quite at

24
00:01:24,601 --> 00:01:28,161
Speaker 3: that extent. But the it is tending to get a

25
00:01:28,161 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: bit later on in the day where I'm getting more conversations.

26
00:01:32,041 --> 00:01:34,921
Speaker 3: But then as a parent, your bandwidth has sort of

27
00:01:34,961 --> 00:01:37,881
Speaker 3: like run short a little bit. I did set was

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 3: doing school pickup and I felt like I was sliding

29
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 3: down into my seat of the car because there was

30
00:01:44,681 --> 00:01:48,281
Speaker 3: just so much drama getting thrown around this car between

31
00:01:48,281 --> 00:01:50,481
Speaker 3: Gracie and her friends that I do school pickup with.

32
00:01:50,801 --> 00:01:53,001
Speaker 3: It was just making me sort of twitch and that

33
00:01:53,081 --> 00:01:55,121
Speaker 3: I was trying to hide from it. As I was

34
00:01:55,241 --> 00:01:58,121
Speaker 3: driving the car, I was like, this is just too much.

35
00:01:58,281 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: It doesn't get any lighter. There's no days where they

36
00:02:00,521 --> 00:02:02,401
Speaker 3: get in the car and it's just like today, it

37
00:02:02,481 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 3: was such a great day.

38
00:02:04,121 --> 00:02:04,441
Speaker 2: Never.

39
00:02:05,241 --> 00:02:09,121
Speaker 1: Never, how was your day, Mum, tell me about what

40
00:02:09,161 --> 00:02:23,361
Speaker 1: you've been doing. Never. My bad Mum for allowing adults

41
00:02:23,441 --> 00:02:25,081
Speaker 1: to behave irresponsibly.

42
00:02:27,001 --> 00:02:30,481
Speaker 3: So usually we debrief, right, we haven't debriefed on this,

43
00:02:30,881 --> 00:02:33,321
Speaker 3: so that's what makes me even more excited because I

44
00:02:33,361 --> 00:02:34,161
Speaker 3: love the topic.

45
00:02:34,441 --> 00:02:37,201
Speaker 1: Well, we are going to be Mum's gone wild on

46
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:42,041
Speaker 1: the weekend because we have got tickets to strapbreak day

47
00:02:42,161 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: we have at Brisbane Racing Club BRC.

48
00:02:45,881 --> 00:02:47,921
Speaker 2: That's where we're going to be yes all day.

49
00:02:48,201 --> 00:02:52,881
Speaker 3: Back in the previous years, when I was getting ready

50
00:02:52,921 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 3: for the racers, you'd be like, hair.

51
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,041
Speaker 2: Done, makeup done.

52
00:02:57,121 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: You'd be swamming around the house having a glass of

53
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:04,081
Speaker 3: bubbles around brunch time before you were headed for the track.

54
00:03:04,561 --> 00:03:09,921
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now it's kids sport running quick picks.

55
00:03:10,441 --> 00:03:11,321
Speaker 2: Uber's there.

56
00:03:12,601 --> 00:03:14,681
Speaker 3: And then I like sort of gave you a text

57
00:03:14,721 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: to go. So this weekend Stradbroke Day, What time am

58
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:19,681
Speaker 3: I aiming for?

59
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,041
Speaker 2: Yeah?

60
00:03:20,081 --> 00:03:22,641
Speaker 1: So my response to you as to what time you

61
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,801
Speaker 1: should aim for was you aim to get there for

62
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,001
Speaker 1: ten thirty, and then everybody else will get there for

63
00:03:29,001 --> 00:03:30,921
Speaker 1: eleven thirty and hopefully we'll all be there at the

64
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,921
Speaker 1: same time. I was reflecting on previous years at the

65
00:03:37,001 --> 00:03:38,881
Speaker 1: races because over the years we've done a lot of

66
00:03:38,961 --> 00:03:41,881
Speaker 1: race days. It's kind of a brisbee thing. I feel like,

67
00:03:41,881 --> 00:03:44,441
Speaker 1: like you go Saturday as you go to the races,

68
00:03:44,721 --> 00:03:49,641
Speaker 1: and the winter carnival is probably my favorite. Weather is

69
00:03:49,721 --> 00:03:54,641
Speaker 1: usually beautiful, sunny, blue skies, then gets a bit cold

70
00:03:54,681 --> 00:03:57,001
Speaker 1: in the evening, but it's great for the like the

71
00:03:57,041 --> 00:04:00,441
Speaker 1: guys in suits like I them in summer, So winter

72
00:04:00,641 --> 00:04:04,121
Speaker 1: racing carnivals great and Strawbery Day is such a vibe,

73
00:04:04,161 --> 00:04:07,881
Speaker 1: like it is always break day. I was reflecting on

74
00:04:08,121 --> 00:04:11,561
Speaker 1: a previous year when it kind of was our thing

75
00:04:11,721 --> 00:04:15,441
Speaker 1: to invite everybody back after the races, because we normally

76
00:04:15,481 --> 00:04:18,441
Speaker 1: had to get back for a babysitter. Let's get rid

77
00:04:18,481 --> 00:04:21,321
Speaker 1: of her and pay her off and then everyone come

78
00:04:21,401 --> 00:04:23,361
Speaker 1: back to us, and it's like that stop off at

79
00:04:23,361 --> 00:04:25,961
Speaker 1: the bottle shop, the uber on the way back, and

80
00:04:26,001 --> 00:04:29,841
Speaker 1: then ordering pizzas. I was always very responsible, getting the

81
00:04:29,921 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: kids dinner, getting them showered, and then they'd go to

82
00:04:33,481 --> 00:04:35,801
Speaker 1: bed so they were sorted, and then it was adults

83
00:04:35,841 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: and it was just adults gone wild downstairs. And there

84
00:04:39,721 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: was a time where Jay decided it would be fun

85
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,921
Speaker 1: to get on the kids trampoline with a guy friend.

86
00:04:49,281 --> 00:04:54,041
Speaker 1: Oh good, yeah, so two heavy men, like this was

87
00:04:54,081 --> 00:04:54,681
Speaker 1: never in the wind.

88
00:04:54,961 --> 00:04:57,761
Speaker 2: You're going to end really well. Two heavy men on

89
00:04:57,841 --> 00:05:00,481
Speaker 2: a child friendly trampoline.

90
00:05:00,561 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: Yep, yep, in the back garden, in the dark, in

91
00:05:03,561 --> 00:05:08,921
Speaker 1: the dark, on the trampoline. Okay, both of them start jumping.

92
00:05:09,081 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 3: Wonderful, like I've just wanted to be too mad after

93
00:05:11,921 --> 00:05:12,481
Speaker 3: a race day.

94
00:05:12,521 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: It was so joyful, like they look like they're really

95
00:05:15,681 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: having fun. Next thing, massive thud, crack, the trampoline has

96
00:05:22,521 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: broken in half.

97
00:05:24,041 --> 00:05:25,721
Speaker 2: Perfect And so.

98
00:05:25,761 --> 00:05:29,641
Speaker 1: Then the next day it was the explaining to the

99
00:05:29,801 --> 00:05:37,001
Speaker 1: kids why their trampoline wasn't able to be used because

100
00:05:37,001 --> 00:05:41,521
Speaker 1: the night before two drunken idiots had fallen through the trampoline.

101
00:05:41,601 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: Thinking oh, we'll take our way. We really can't take

102
00:05:44,121 --> 00:05:47,161
Speaker 1: two hundred kilos. There's only supposed to be.

103
00:05:47,041 --> 00:05:47,601
Speaker 2: One kid on it.

104
00:05:47,721 --> 00:05:49,481
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, it's only meant to be give

105
00:05:49,521 --> 00:05:52,801
Speaker 3: me the reaction to the men though, when the thud

106
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 3: happened on the ground, I would have loved to see

107
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,961
Speaker 3: j go through a trampoline.

108
00:05:57,641 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: Like I would have loved There was a lot.

109
00:06:00,641 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: Of fun to be had at the races and after

110
00:06:03,481 --> 00:06:04,121
Speaker 1: the races.

111
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 2: Rage.

112
00:06:05,161 --> 00:06:07,921
Speaker 1: Last time I went to the races, paid fifteen dollars

113
00:06:07,921 --> 00:06:14,401
Speaker 1: outside for a big issue. A fifteen dollars I think,

114
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,321
Speaker 1: I said how much five or something, and I went Jay,

115
00:06:18,361 --> 00:06:19,601
Speaker 1: get some money out, give her.

116
00:06:19,561 --> 00:06:22,361
Speaker 2: Fifteen, Give her fifteen for the big issue. She's like,

117
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,801
Speaker 2: what is wrong with this woman?

118
00:06:24,361 --> 00:06:25,481
Speaker 1: They must get that lot.

Speaker 2: her to be there. Yeah.

121
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,641
Speaker 1: I never usually have cash, like in a lamal situation,

122
00:06:32,681 --> 00:06:33,801
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have cash on me.

123
00:06:34,041 --> 00:06:34,921
Speaker 2: That's exactly right.

124
00:06:35,001 --> 00:06:37,681
Speaker 3: Why not stand outside where the bookies have just handed

125
00:06:37,681 --> 00:06:39,121
Speaker 3: your cash all day if you've had.

126
00:06:39,041 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 2: A good day to get up on.

127
00:06:41,001 --> 00:06:46,881
Speaker 3: I also admire the fashions going into the field, so

128
00:06:46,921 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: there's always fashions on the field, right, And obviously this

129
00:06:49,481 --> 00:06:53,281
Speaker 3: weekend again is a weekend where if you're going to

130
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,761
Speaker 3: the races, everyone's basically you got something in the cupboard, right,

131
00:06:55,801 --> 00:06:58,801
Speaker 3: because as a staple, you've got something black or something white,

132
00:06:58,921 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 3: and then throw on a touch of red.

133
00:07:00,241 --> 00:07:01,041
Speaker 2: A little bit of lippy.

134
00:07:01,201 --> 00:07:03,241
Speaker 3: You're sweet, right, don't even have to go out and

135
00:07:03,241 --> 00:07:06,601
Speaker 3: buy a new outfit. But I love watching the fashions

136
00:07:06,841 --> 00:07:09,921
Speaker 3: go in to the race day as much as I

137
00:07:09,961 --> 00:07:12,841
Speaker 3: love the fashions leaving the race day shoes in hand.

138
00:07:12,921 --> 00:07:15,841
Speaker 3: But like, you know, you've put together a beautiful outfit

139
00:07:15,921 --> 00:07:17,841
Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, halfway through the day,

140
00:07:18,001 --> 00:07:20,641
Speaker 3: your outfit's sort of like half broken, and you're in

141
00:07:21,041 --> 00:07:24,201
Speaker 3: the toilet trying to like repint it or like together,

142
00:07:24,521 --> 00:07:27,321
Speaker 3: staple it together, or get someone else to like jam

143
00:07:27,441 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: you in something so that you can hook the eye

144
00:07:29,881 --> 00:07:31,401
Speaker 3: of the dress, but the zip won't go.

145
00:07:31,601 --> 00:07:33,761
Speaker 2: Like I think this weekend's the easiest one to dress for.

146
00:07:34,041 --> 00:07:36,481
Speaker 1: I did that with a dress once it did open

147
00:07:36,521 --> 00:07:39,041
Speaker 1: at the back, and some lovely girl said, excuse me,

148
00:07:39,081 --> 00:07:42,041
Speaker 1: your dress is split at the back, And I did

149
00:07:42,081 --> 00:07:45,401
Speaker 1: find a stapler and I did staple it together, and

150
00:07:45,521 --> 00:07:48,521
Speaker 1: to this day rate that dress has stables in the

151
00:07:48,561 --> 00:07:49,041
Speaker 1: back of it.

152
00:07:50,201 --> 00:07:54,161
Speaker 3: I have walked in on someone pinning their friend up

153
00:07:54,321 --> 00:07:57,361
Speaker 3: against the wall and they're trying to hook the eye

154
00:07:57,521 --> 00:07:59,841
Speaker 3: of the dress in order to try and rejig the

155
00:07:59,961 --> 00:08:02,841
Speaker 3: zip to make the zip go back up because she's

156
00:08:02,841 --> 00:08:06,361
Speaker 3: gone the toilet and it's a one piece. Oh yeah,

157
00:08:06,401 --> 00:08:08,161
Speaker 3: and I'm like, this girl's.

158
00:08:07,881 --> 00:08:08,921
Speaker 2: Never gonna we again.

159
00:08:09,321 --> 00:08:11,441
Speaker 3: Let's just say it was three quarters through the day,

160
00:08:11,521 --> 00:08:13,281
Speaker 3: so there was a lot of back and forth to

161
00:08:13,321 --> 00:08:16,161
Speaker 3: the bathrooms already. But all their friends were doing was

162
00:08:16,241 --> 00:08:19,121
Speaker 3: just like, no, we will get this zip. You will

163
00:08:19,161 --> 00:08:22,121
Speaker 3: stay at the races. You're not going home yet.

164
00:08:22,161 --> 00:08:24,761
Speaker 1: You know, last time I went to the races, it

165
00:08:24,841 --> 00:08:27,281
Speaker 1: was really busy at the time I was leaving, and

166
00:08:27,321 --> 00:08:29,241
Speaker 1: it was annoying me that I can find Nouba. And

167
00:08:29,241 --> 00:08:32,081
Speaker 1: then this taxi to overage. I said, we're just going

168
00:08:32,121 --> 00:08:36,441
Speaker 1: down to the restaurant Coort Slight for dinner, and this

169
00:08:36,561 --> 00:08:39,801
Speaker 1: TAXI wanted to charge. I think he had fifty dollars

170
00:08:39,881 --> 00:08:42,081
Speaker 1: or something. I was like, I'm going down the road

171
00:08:42,121 --> 00:08:44,041
Speaker 1: and you're like yeah yeah, And I was like, Okay,

172
00:08:44,161 --> 00:08:45,481
Speaker 1: you're not kind.

173
00:08:46,161 --> 00:08:49,361
Speaker 2: You're not kind. That's what I'm going to leave it at.

174
00:08:49,441 --> 00:08:51,441
Speaker 2: Right now. I've had a full day at the races.

175
00:08:51,601 --> 00:08:54,121
Speaker 2: You're not kind. Kind better than what I say. No,

176
00:08:54,241 --> 00:08:54,561
Speaker 2: I did.

177
00:08:54,721 --> 00:08:57,401
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got scooter, E got on scooter.

178
00:08:57,561 --> 00:08:59,801
Speaker 2: My god, girlfriend that put.

179
00:08:59,601 --> 00:09:02,321
Speaker 1: My helme on scootered down. I had so much fun

180
00:09:02,521 --> 00:09:06,241
Speaker 1: in heels. Yeah, in heels, Yeah, heels on a.

181
00:09:06,241 --> 00:09:08,241
Speaker 2: Scooter, heels on at all times.

182
00:09:08,281 --> 00:09:12,081
Speaker 1: I was remarkably balanced in your mind.

183
00:09:12,441 --> 00:09:15,081
Speaker 2: Not everyone else on the road. They were all like,

184
00:09:15,281 --> 00:09:19,241
Speaker 2: fuck with thisitch. She's all over the shop. You get

185
00:09:19,281 --> 00:09:22,001
Speaker 2: your bag on, you get your helmet on, you're riding

186
00:09:23,561 --> 00:09:24,201
Speaker 2: a scooter.

187
00:09:24,641 --> 00:09:27,081
Speaker 3: Like if you you are so much braver than me.

188
00:09:27,241 --> 00:09:29,681
Speaker 3: I absolutely would not have done that.

189
00:09:30,561 --> 00:09:31,921
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd rather walk.

190
00:09:32,081 --> 00:09:35,841
Speaker 1: No, I am that person. No, so fine, I love

191
00:09:35,881 --> 00:09:36,561
Speaker 1: those scooters.

192
00:09:36,721 --> 00:09:39,161
Speaker 3: No, I can't have told my kids you can't go

193
00:09:39,281 --> 00:09:41,121
Speaker 3: on there, so it'd be double standards.

194
00:09:41,201 --> 00:09:42,321
Speaker 2: I did think about.

195
00:09:42,521 --> 00:09:45,001
Speaker 1: She'd probably takes your shoes off and hold them. You'd

196
00:09:45,001 --> 00:09:46,081
Speaker 1: probably be.

197
00:09:45,921 --> 00:09:47,921
Speaker 3: What's going to be more of a hazard wearing high

198
00:09:47,961 --> 00:09:49,881
Speaker 3: heels or carrying them in a hand while you're trying

199
00:09:49,881 --> 00:09:50,681
Speaker 3: to like steers?

200
00:09:50,841 --> 00:09:51,641
Speaker 2: Yeah, half cut.

201
00:09:51,801 --> 00:09:54,721
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I figured all I do is stand on it.

202
00:09:54,721 --> 00:09:56,361
Speaker 1: It's not like I'm riding a bike. It's not like

203
00:09:56,401 --> 00:09:58,521
Speaker 1: the heels are on pedals. Like I just had to

204
00:09:58,561 --> 00:09:59,001
Speaker 1: stand there.

205
00:09:59,041 --> 00:10:01,601
Speaker 2: What are you doing after this race day this weekend?

206
00:10:01,761 --> 00:10:03,161

223
00:10:48,441 --> 00:10:51,521
Speaker 1: Wearing something really lovely and put everyone into shame.

00:10:51,641 --> 00:10:54,801
Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm struggling a bit at the moment, Katie.
