1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: This is the Fits In with Kate Richie podcast.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 2: I want you to get involved.

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 3: If your body has ever rejected something cool. Do you

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 3: hear these Well, I wouldn't say horror stories, but say

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 3: something's been living in your body for a while and

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 3: the body, the human body, is amazing crazy kind of Well, first,

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 3: the fact that it heals itself is amazing.

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 4: However, we used to do a segment here Kate Richie

9
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 4: cord that's body amazing. Oh, that's great, just of amazing

10
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 4: body facts.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: Is trying to find it.

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: Why don't you do that anymore?

13
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: Well, that's amazing.

14
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 4: Oh, it kind of ran out of the body things

15
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 4: and the body needs to do something else we didn't

16
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 4: know about.

17
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 1: The big one is splinters or pins. We've heard from

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: people stepping on pins before that have gone into the skin.

19
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: They couldn't get it out. A pin can travel up

20
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: your through your body. People have been stabbed in the

21
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: heart from a pin through their foot through their body.

22
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 2: Worked that out.

23
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 3: Well, now, you just make my story sound not that exciting,

24
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 3: But okay, I'll tell you mine, and I want you

25
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: to let me know if you've got a better one

26
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 3: than this. My daughter, this is many years ago I

27
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 3: came home from doing a book signing it big w

28
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: in something.

29
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: Thank you.

30
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 3: I'm a children's author. And actually I don't need to

31
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 3: tell the rest of the story, because that's what it

32
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:29,919
Speaker 3: was all about.

33
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: No, I've so who rejected your book.

34
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: So I've come home from the signing. It was, you know,

35
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: all lovely.

36
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 3: My husband and daughter were at home, and I sat

37
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 3: on the floor and gave me a cuddle. Now, so

38
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 3: this is the second book I'd written. I've written more

39
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 3: than one, and so I'm saying this is about this

40
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 3: has to be at least three or four years ago. Okay,

41
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 3: I sit down on the I'm giving may a cuddle.

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: I have a glass on the timber, and it tims over.

43
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 3: The water glass tips over and it ricochets and the

44
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: glass kind of hits the deck and then scatters across

45
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 3: the room. A piece of that glass goes into my

46
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: daughter's leg. We have to go to the emergency department.

47
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 3: She needs some stitches on her. It's kind of on

48
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 3: the shin. I mean, shins are a bit nasty because

49
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: there's no there's nothing going on there.

50
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: It's you and the bone.

51
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 3: Anyway, stitched up or good, don't you know it's healing beautifully,

52
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 3: or so we thought. Only over the Christmas period does

53
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 3: she get this little like I can't even describe it,

54
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 3: but it wasn't a pimple, but it was a raised

55
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 3: a bit like maybe a splinter was in there or something.

56
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: She won't let anyone near it. I mean, you know

57
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 3: what it's like trying to get near anything.

58
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: On a child.

59
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: And I've even tried to do it at night when

60
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 2: she'd fallen a.

61
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: Set so sneaking.

62
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, because she wouldn't let me scratch it. Go come on,

63
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: dull and let me just.

64
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 3: Have a And then some nights she'd wake up in

65
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 3: the middle of the night because I was madly trying

66
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: to scratch this thing.

67
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 2: Anyway.

68
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 3: Only a fortnight ago, she finally I finally encouraged her

69
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: to get into it herself. She pulls out a tiny

70
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 3: little piece of glass out of her leg from the

71
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: exact spot it had obviously been sewn into the leg

72
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 3: at the.

73
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: Time, around the shin.

74
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is like three and a half years later.

75
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: It couldn't how much meat around the shin. I don't

76
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: think it could move up the.

77
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 4: Body, but all the other thing is too fits. It

78
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 4: might have been deep enough that it's taken two and

79
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 4: a half years for the body to reject it and

80
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: make its way to the surface.

81
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: Come out this way.

82
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: It's such as satisfying stuff.

83
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 3: Now it's gross, but even just like I mean, I

84
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: won't watch those pimple videos, but I do love a scab.

85
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 4: Possibly an ear clean. It's one of those micro cameras

86
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 4: rewarding fellas.

87
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: Just a bit of a tip there if you're trying

88
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: to pick up Kate Richie, if you've got scaps all

89
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: over your body, or.

90
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 4: Give in with a shot and she'll buy your dinner.

91
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: Emily and Taramara, what did your body reject him?

92
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 5: I had last as well like Kate.

93
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: Oh yes, because my daughter had glass that made its

94
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 3: way out of her body after three and a half

95
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 3: four years.

96
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: How did yours find its way to the surface? What

97
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 2: was it? Emily?

98
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 5: Well, long story short. I got in trouble when I

99
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 5: was about five and sets the naughty steps and a

100
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 5: picture frame fell off the staircase and shut it all

101
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 5: over me. Yes, and I got cuts all over my

102
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 5: body and a massive gash in my forehead. And then

103
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 5: about I think eight years later, I was about thirteen.

104
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 5: Mom noticed that three little temple looking things on my forehead. Anyway,

105
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 5: she decided to squeeze it out and it was a

106
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 5: little pieces of bluff.

107
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: Oh now that is for doctor Pemple Popper.

108
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 6: That is that's.

109
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: Gold, isn't it. You've just found the biggest nugget in

110
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 4: the country.

111
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: That is amazing.

112
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: Did you say seven years later, Emily?

113
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I'm pretty sure I was thirteen or

114
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 5: fourteen when it happened.

115
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 3: Great story, It's amazing. Can you imagine being sent to

116
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 3: the naughty step by your parents? How bad would mum

117
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 3: and dad feel if the photo frame then smashes.

118
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: Your lesson, especially when Dad pushed it off the wall.

119
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 2: God's punishment.

120
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: Jason and Colby.

121
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 6: Good Jason, welcome back, guys.

00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,559
Speaker 1: We love you. Jason.

123
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 4: Hey, Colby, how are you Ma?

124
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: It's Jason, Sorry Jay, Jason? What did your body reject? Jason?

125
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 6: Last year, I stood on a knitting stone needle in

126
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 6: the carpet, and I had to walk around for a

127
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 6: week and I started to go in anyway, after a

128
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 6: week it actually had ripen into the top of my

129

Speaker 6: I felt it. I felt it going and I knew

132
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 6: something was floating in my foot and I just waited

133
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 6: to wait for the could you walk.

134
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 2: A week.

135
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 1: Mating? Was it protruding from the top of your nail

136
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: or what was it pushing on your toenail?

137
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 4: Was it?

138
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 6: I just came up and near my little coat. I

Speaker 1: been No, there would have been.

144
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:42,120

150
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: Anthony now and camped and Anthony, what your body rejected?

151
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 7: It's not that my body's rejected it, and it's not

152
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 7: exactly a foreign object. It's kind of similar to cape

153
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 7: story with the rating of the lump in recent times.

154
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 7: For two thousand and five, I was in a motorbike

155
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 7: accident and among there as soon as I tore my

156
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 7: quad And that was two thousand and five, and about

157
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 7: eighteen months ago, something started coming towards the surface of

158
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 7: my leg and turns out it's a piece of my

159
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 7: muscle and I can actually manipulate it and move it

160
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 7: around my leg.

161
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: Is it sore when you push on, Anthony? Or no?

162
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,680
