Speaker 2: drill bit and put it into your bucket with the

33
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,920

Speaker 2: all life hack, Where do you got Joe?

35
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 4: So when you get the hiccup and they're hard to

36
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 4: get rid of, there's apparently a pressure point in your ear.

37
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 4: So if you stick both your fingers in your ear,

38
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 4: no more hiccups. Every time I tried it, it's got

39
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 4: rid of the up straight away.

40
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: Aren't these just distractions?

41
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: Give me a break?

42
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 3: I mean, drinking water upside down, standing on your head,

43
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 3: someone giving you a fright, And aren't these all distractions?

44
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 3: Putting your fingers in your ears, put a thumb up

45
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 3: your mum, All these sorts of different things are just distractions.

46
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: That is distracting.

47
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 3: When that we've just got hiccups again, Oh, the office says, stop,

48
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 3: they're not hiccups to help my friend.

49
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: All right, good start, Joe, Amy life hak, what do

50
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: you got?

51
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 5: This one's four.

52
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 6: Parents of toddlers.

53
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 5: So my three year old, now, if you eat, you

54
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 5: know I've changed the word and call it a big snack.

55
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 7: Now I'm going to make you a big snack.

56
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: And that's really good.

57
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: Big snack time, big snacks on the table.

58
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: You could say you're having a big snack before you're

59
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: getting a treat, because if you have your big snack,

60
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 2: which is your dinner, then you get a treat after

61
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 2: your treat.

62
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:29,359
Speaker 1: Beaning, what's your life hate?

63
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 8: It's almost worth a drum roll?

64
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 3: Tom, Okay, here.

65
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: We go, fire it off now. Yeah, so you get.

66
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 9: If you get macas for your kids, you get them

67
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 9: six nuggets or a trees burger. If to open the

68
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 9: box fully up so the two sort of sides are

69
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 9: facing up in the middle of the join it. Actually

70
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 9: there's there's a little perforated Marcus must have done it

71
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 9: on purpose, and your straw fits through it. So the

72
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 9: box sits on top of the cup. You put the

73
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 9: nuggets side, chips on the other sauce on them, and

74
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 9: it sits in the cup holder for the kids.

75
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: So that's that sits in the cup holder.

76
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: But what you can also do, Ben, if you get

77
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: a large drink, it sits on the top of your drink,

78
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: your cup.

79
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 9: That's what I was saying. It sits on top of

80
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 9: the cup. So the kids can have a drink through

81
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 9: the straw which is through the box, and then nuggets

82
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 9: and chips the.

83
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 3: Butterfly on the top of the drink.

84
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: There still think if you if you're handing that over

85
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: to kids in the backseat, it's still going to be

86
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 2: a disaster at some stage.

87
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: It was worth the worth the drum roll, Benny, thank you, Victoria,

88
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 3: welcome to the show, What's Your Life Hack?

89
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 6: When you're cooking boiled eggs, and they're quite hard to peel,

90
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 6: if you put a tea spoon of bicarp of soda

91
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 6: in the water, the shell comes off completely. It's perfect

92
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 6: in the pot. In the in the pot with the eggs,

93
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 6: flavor absolutely falls off. It's brilliant.

94
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: So when do you put it in, Victoria right at the.

95
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 6: End, No, No, when you when you're actually boiling the eggs,

96
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 6: you put the water on, you put the eggs in,

97
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 6: you put the bike carb in, and when you finish

98
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 6: your boil, you run under cold water and the shell

99
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 6: just peels off.

100
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: If that works, you're a life change of Victoria. Peeling

101
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 3: eggs is a pain in the bum. It's up there with.

102
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: Your Spots and Whipper podcast, Helena. Do you want to

103
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: kick it off with yours if anyone wants out there?

104
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: Yes.

105
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 10: For cat owners, this is the greatest hack ever. So

106
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 10: cats hate having their paws touched. You go real feral

107
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 10: when you're trying to clip their claws. So when when

108
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 10: cats are little kittens, they get comforted by their mother

109
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 10: because their mother bites the back of their neck. Yes,

110
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 10: so if you bite the back of your neck, the

111
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 10: cat will calm down and you can clip its nails.

112
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: You the back if you with your fingers like you

113
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: to be picking up.

114
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 10: Just pinching with my hands, you don't actually have to

115
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 10: bite and get the fur. And you see he doesn't

116
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 10: want to be touched on the paws cheat And then

117
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 10: when you pitch the.

118
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 3: Back he just relaxing. He thinks Mum's got him.

119
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: And I did it with Tom this morning as well.

120
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: When it works, this is another one.

121
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 2: You know when you take your kids to camart target

122
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: anything like that instantly, can I get this.

123
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: I want that. Oh there's the new toy. I'm not leaving.

124
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: I'm going to cry until I get it.

125
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 3: How do we stop that?

126
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: Mum's got a life improve a hack for you.

127
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 2: All you need to do is say to the kid,

128
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 2: oh awesome, why don't I take a photo with you

129
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 2: with the toy and I will text it through to

130
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: Santa straight away, so Santa.

131
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: Knows that you want it for Christmas. All and only

132
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: the kids are like, yeah, awesome, they get that.

133
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 2: They stop crying, they have a smile on their face,

134
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,559
Speaker 2: get a photo, and then you make it your seeing

135
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: it through to Santa sucked in. They forget about it

136
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: a week later. They never get it for Christmas. Well,

137
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: they are so silly.

138
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: What's your life hack? Eric?

139
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 8: So those limples that you get built up on your

140
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,799
Speaker 8: shirts and your sheet, you remove them with the Gillett raiser.

141
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 8: Just generally shave them off.

142
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 3: Shave them, okay, shave your shirt the best of shirt

143
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 3: can get.

144
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 8: Certainly, don't make a hole in it, and pick your time.

145
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 8: I'll send it to two am shaving.

146
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 3: Most Wow, you shave your bed. There's another option called

147
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 3: buy some new sheets, Eric Ellen, life haack.

148
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 7: So my life hack is if you feel like time

149
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 7: is going too fast, which I think we all have

150
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 7: with isolation and everything, to get it to slow down.

151
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 7: If you pick a hobby that takes time, like would

152
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 7: work or gardening, it's changing your perspective because you have

153
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 7: to wait to enjoy those things. It's not just blurring

154
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 7: the days together anymore.

155
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 3: It is so true.

156
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: I feel like everything just needs It's like you when

157
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 2: you're watching a video now, you need to be hooked in.

158
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: For the first three seconds or so.

159
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 3: Ellen, would you say something like knitting?
