Speaker 1: Appoge Production.

2
00:00:22,841 --> 00:00:25,561
Speaker 2: Welcome back to another episode about I a Bad Mom

3
00:00:25,921 --> 00:00:29,201
Speaker 2: podcast or on Instagram? Two Am I a bad mum?

4
00:00:29,561 --> 00:00:31,281
Speaker 2: You always look at me at the start of the episode, like,

5
00:00:31,361 --> 00:00:32,121
Speaker 2: what's she gonna say?

6
00:00:32,161 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: Where's she going with this?

7
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,641
Speaker 3: I had such a bad mom morning this morning. This

8
00:00:37,721 --> 00:00:41,121
Speaker 3: morning's chaos was purely because of me. My alarm went

9
00:00:41,161 --> 00:00:45,481
Speaker 3: off at the gym at four point thirty rough right, yeah.

10
00:00:45,241 --> 00:00:47,961
Speaker 1: And it window it's so cold right now.

11
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,281
Speaker 3: And I flicked what I thought was my gym alarm

12
00:00:51,921 --> 00:00:54,321
Speaker 3: off because I set two of them, so the first

13
00:00:54,361 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 3: one goes off automatically. I pressed stop, and then in

14
00:00:57,241 --> 00:00:59,281
Speaker 3: my head, I thought I picked my phone up and

15
00:00:59,321 --> 00:01:04,481
Speaker 3: turned off my four point thirty five alarm, which is

16
00:01:04,481 --> 00:01:06,521
Speaker 3: my second one, but I didn't. I turned off my

17
00:01:07,041 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 3: third alarm, which is like the six fifteen, enough time

18
00:01:09,881 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 3: to get up and get ready and then get Gracie

19
00:01:11,761 --> 00:01:14,281
Speaker 3: off to school and all of that stuff. But obviously

20
00:01:14,401 --> 00:01:17,521
Speaker 3: I was asleep and I just flicked off the six fifteen,

21
00:01:18,041 --> 00:01:20,521
Speaker 3: and then the second gym one obviously went but I

22
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,161
Speaker 3: didn't sort of half even work that out, so I'd

23
00:01:23,161 --> 00:01:26,121
Speaker 3: pressed stop on that one obviously, and then nothing went

24
00:01:26,121 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 3: off at six point fifteen, So then I don't know,

25
00:01:28,601 --> 00:01:31,241
Speaker 3: by chance my body's like woken me up. It's six

26
00:01:31,521 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 3: twenty five. I have to have Gracie out of the

27
00:01:35,481 --> 00:01:37,601
Speaker 3: door in twenty minutes.

28
00:01:37,721 --> 00:01:40,081
Speaker 2: Oh to get planned to get up at four thirty.

29
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,241
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like I planned to get up at

30
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,881
Speaker 3: four thirty and then and then four thirty five my

31
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,561
Speaker 3: alarm went off again. I'd obviously just press stop on that,

32
00:01:47,601 --> 00:01:50,041
Speaker 3: but then I'd picked my phone up thinking that I'd

33
00:01:50,041 --> 00:01:52,681
Speaker 3: turned off my gym alarm when it was and it

34
00:01:52,761 --> 00:01:53,881
Speaker 3: was my get up.

35
00:01:53,921 --> 00:01:55,561
Speaker 1: You have to go alarm.

36
00:01:55,961 --> 00:01:57,681
Speaker 3: I don't tend to be like this all year, but

37
00:01:57,761 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 3: as soon as I get into winter, I'm a fucking

38
00:02:00,321 --> 00:02:01,481
Speaker 3: hot mess.

39
00:02:01,681 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: I hate being old mans. I hate yeah, cold mess.

40
00:02:05,561 --> 00:02:06,401
Speaker 1: I hate being cold.

41
00:02:06,521 --> 00:02:11,321
Speaker 3: This morning, twenty minutes in order to get her a

42
00:02:11,641 --> 00:02:16,361
Speaker 3: even out of bed, be dressed and operating, and then

43
00:02:16,441 --> 00:02:20,041
Speaker 3: in that same time get myself dressed and operating, do

44
00:02:20,201 --> 00:02:23,281
Speaker 3: little lunch boxes for her, and then also get her

45
00:02:23,321 --> 00:02:25,961
Speaker 3: cereal in a takeaway bowl so she can eat in

46
00:02:26,001 --> 00:02:27,601
Speaker 3: the time frame in the car.

47
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,481
Speaker 2: Hell, yeah, crazy, twenty minute. Let me get so twenty minutes.

48
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,481
Speaker 2: So when I think about my girls, eighteen minutes of

49
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,361
Speaker 2: that is get out of bed, Get out of bed,

50
00:02:36,481 --> 00:02:39,161
Speaker 2: get out of bed exactly, and then you've got like,

51
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,441
Speaker 2: hurry up, choose in hand, breakfast in hand.

52
00:02:44,441 --> 00:02:47,841
Speaker 3: At one stage, Katie, I looked at her and said.

53
00:02:47,721 --> 00:02:50,881
Speaker 2: Eat this cereal put in your mouth.

54
00:02:50,921 --> 00:02:53,201
Speaker 3: I'm trying to drive the car. I feel sorry for

55
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,761
Speaker 3: it because I'm just bugging.

56
00:02:54,561 --> 00:02:56,561
Speaker 1: Stundar twenty minutes ago.

57
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,881
Speaker 2: One eye opened having to shuffle cereal down.

58
00:03:10,001 --> 00:03:14,281
Speaker 1: Am I a bad mum for mixing shit up?

59
00:03:15,561 --> 00:03:19,561
Speaker 3: I know it's actually just a little fun reflective moment.

60
00:03:19,641 --> 00:03:22,961
Speaker 3: But Katie, this is so different to what I have

61
00:03:23,081 --> 00:03:25,081
Speaker 3: ever done. And I don't actually even know why I

62
00:03:25,121 --> 00:03:27,841
Speaker 3: did it. I think because I walked past something in

63
00:03:27,881 --> 00:03:30,961
Speaker 3: the Ida. I was getting stuff on the way home,

64
00:03:31,641 --> 00:03:33,881
Speaker 3: and I had to get a couple of things for dinner,

65
00:03:33,921 --> 00:03:36,561
Speaker 3: and I was walking through Ida, our local Ida, which

66
00:03:36,601 --> 00:03:37,881
Speaker 3: is highly overpriced.

67
00:03:38,441 --> 00:03:40,481
Speaker 1: Just needed to add that in just made me feel better.

68
00:03:40,801 --> 00:03:43,321
Speaker 1: And I just genuinely.

69
00:03:43,041 --> 00:03:47,441
Speaker 3: Was walking about Sistan and all of these DIY slime.

70
00:03:47,121 --> 00:03:51,161
Speaker 1: Kits were reduced for half price. Slime Don't worry.

71
00:03:51,241 --> 00:03:54,041
Speaker 3: I paid fucking overs for everything else but the slime

72
00:03:54,121 --> 00:03:57,721
Speaker 3: kids for half price. But it looked really creative, and

73
00:03:57,761 --> 00:03:59,241
Speaker 3: I thought I would just get one for each of

74
00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:02,041
Speaker 3: the girls, right number one hate slime.

75
00:04:01,961 --> 00:04:04,441
Speaker 2: Yeah, that shit goes on your carpet, Elsie.

76
00:04:04,441 --> 00:04:05,721
Speaker 1: You didn't even really budget it.

77
00:04:05,761 --> 00:04:07,041
Speaker 3: So I took it home and I went, oh, so

78
00:04:07,081 --> 00:04:10,561
Speaker 3: I got you something, an IgA, and I'm excited about it.

79
00:04:10,761 --> 00:04:11,361
Speaker 1: Can I have a look.

80
00:04:11,441 --> 00:04:13,521
Speaker 3: She came out and she goes, oh, slime kid, thanks, mum,

81
00:04:13,601 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: walked straight back into the TV room.

82
00:04:15,281 --> 00:04:17,801
Speaker 1: Oh, and I think I was like waiting for a

83
00:04:17,841 --> 00:04:21,841
Speaker 1: reaction where she was really excited. Yeah, anyway, let's fast forward.

84
00:04:22,081 --> 00:04:25,121
Speaker 3: She sat down, we ate dinner, that was all well

85
00:04:25,161 --> 00:04:27,321
Speaker 3: and good, and then she goes, I think I might

86
00:04:27,361 --> 00:04:28,681
Speaker 3: get my slime kit out.

87
00:04:28,721 --> 00:04:30,721
Speaker 1: Is that okay? And I was like, yeah, for sure,

88
00:04:30,841 --> 00:04:31,481
Speaker 1: that's great.

89
00:04:31,921 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 3: I'm definitely gonna video it, you know, like what I'm

90
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:35,681
Speaker 3: like with screen time?

91
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,841
Speaker 1: I was like, why like.

92
00:04:38,801 --> 00:04:40,601
Speaker 2: A haul like of what she's got.

93
00:04:40,721 --> 00:04:42,921
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a hal or like an unboxing or

94
00:04:42,961 --> 00:04:47,041
Speaker 3: an anyway, instead of me doing what I normally do,

95
00:04:47,081 --> 00:04:49,001
Speaker 3: which is absolutely not put the screen down and you

96
00:04:49,001 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 3: do not need it, just sit there and be in

97
00:04:50,921 --> 00:04:53,281
Speaker 3: the moment, enjoy the slime kit for you, Like, who

98
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,761
Speaker 3: are going to send it to? You're not putting up

99
00:04:54,761 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: on your YouTube channel, you don't have one anyway. Instead

100
00:04:58,041 --> 00:05:00,041
Speaker 3: I was just like, yeah, sure, go for gold. And

101
00:05:00,121 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: she sat there no way to lie for the next

102
00:05:03,281 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 3: hour at different times like doing this screen stuff, but

103
00:05:06,521 --> 00:05:09,601
Speaker 3: like actually enjoying the whole process, but not only that,

104
00:05:09,681 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 3: then relaying step by step what she was doing. So

105
00:05:14,041 --> 00:05:17,121
Speaker 3: it was really interesting to see Amy drop my guard

106
00:05:17,201 --> 00:05:20,041
Speaker 3: to allow her that. But she's doing it all in

107
00:05:20,041 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 3: front of me, so it's not going anywhere, it's not

108
00:05:22,201 --> 00:05:24,721
Speaker 3: being sent anywhere, it's not being shown anywhere. But for

109
00:05:24,801 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 3: her it was something completely new. But it was just

110
00:05:27,521 --> 00:05:31,361
Speaker 3: really interesting to watch that creative sort of flow.

111
00:05:31,201 --> 00:05:32,041
Speaker 1: Happen for her.

112
00:05:32,841 --> 00:05:35,401
Speaker 3: My reflection as a parent was I loosened the string

113
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 3: a little bit. They sat there for way longer than

114
00:05:38,361 --> 00:05:41,721
Speaker 3: what they normally would, and instead of watching TV, they

115
00:05:41,761 --> 00:05:44,841
Speaker 3: sort of did that, played with this slime, designed all

116
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,161
Speaker 3: this stuff like creative. But then right at the end,

117
00:05:47,201 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 3: once you've major masterpiece, you squish it up and it's slim.

118
00:05:50,481 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 2: So it's two things in one. So you've got slime

119
00:05:53,121 --> 00:05:56,241
Speaker 2: and the actual making whatever you're making, Yeah, and then

120
00:05:56,281 --> 00:06:00,361
Speaker 2: you've got the filming it and making it a kind

121
00:06:00,401 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 2: of YouTube video that yeah, go on YouTube. But they're

122
00:06:03,761 --> 00:06:07,121
Speaker 2: all doing that, I know. So when the girls get

123
00:06:07,201 --> 00:06:10,121
Speaker 2: Christmas presents, for example, they then go on and do

124
00:06:10,161 --> 00:06:12,721
Speaker 2: a hall and so this goes on their Snapchat, and

125
00:06:12,761 --> 00:06:15,241
Speaker 2: so they film the things that they've got. Oh my goodness,

126
00:06:15,281 --> 00:06:18,241
Speaker 2: I got this and I'm really excited and blah blah blah.

127
00:06:18,281 --> 00:06:22,401
Speaker 2: Everything's content, right, even the part that it blows my mind.

128
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,121
Speaker 2: Yours that haven't got social media yet, they're already going,

129
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 2: this is content, Like we need to film this. You

130
00:06:28,801 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: know what my girls used to watch all the time.

131
00:06:31,481 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: People are unboxing things.

132
00:06:33,081 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, but also people filming themselves playing video games.

133
00:06:39,961 --> 00:06:40,761
Speaker 1: You know, I don't get it.

134
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,281
Speaker 2: It's the weirdest thing.

135
00:06:42,361 --> 00:06:43,521
Speaker 1: Yeah, I find that so weird.

136
00:06:43,561 --> 00:06:47,441
Speaker 2: And they make also people make me millions and all

137
00:06:47,481 --> 00:06:50,921
Speaker 2: they do is film themselves going okay, and so this

138
00:06:51,001 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 2: is what I have to do for this part, and

139
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,441
Speaker 2: then I'm gonna shoot this guy here and.

140
00:06:54,921 --> 00:06:58,601
Speaker 3: For someone though, like myself, Katie that finds it hard

141
00:06:58,601 --> 00:07:00,761
Speaker 3: to s it's still to watch, even the shows on

142
00:07:00,801 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: Netflix that I want to watch, Like, I think about

143
00:07:04,001 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 3: me wasting my life watching somebody else play a game

144
00:07:07,921 --> 00:07:11,961
Speaker 3: like that blows my mudh It captures kids, little brains

145
00:07:12,121 --> 00:07:12,761
Speaker 3: and does all that.

146
00:07:12,801 --> 00:07:14,681
Speaker 1: Obviously we know why been.

147
00:07:14,561 --> 00:07:17,921
Speaker 2: Scrolling through TikTok and it's like you're watching like three

148
00:07:17,961 --> 00:07:20,481
Speaker 2: to four seconds of each video. Yeah, and they say.

149
00:07:20,321 --> 00:07:22,081
Speaker 1: That now like nothing is capturing.

150
00:07:22,601 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it needs to be the first few seconds. Yeah,

151
00:07:25,241 --> 00:07:29,201
Speaker 2: I know, twelve seconds tops, Like that's wild Hey, yeah,

152
00:07:29,721 --> 00:07:31,881
Speaker 2: this is why they've got wild Man. Yeah.

153
00:07:31,921 --> 00:07:34,361
Speaker 3: Well that's the first time ever ever let the girls

154
00:07:34,401 --> 00:07:37,281
Speaker 3: do anything like that. It was just so interesting to

155
00:07:37,441 --> 00:07:40,681
Speaker 3: see a different side of them. But also it was

156
00:07:40,801 --> 00:07:42,881
Speaker 3: nice that they didn't want to go straight into like

157
00:07:42,921 --> 00:07:45,961
Speaker 3: watching TV or whatever. I think Lego Masters is the

158
00:07:46,041 --> 00:07:49,081
Speaker 3: current flavor at the moment, but like it was nice

159
00:07:49,081 --> 00:07:50,681
