Speaker 1: Sitsy and with her with Kate Ritchie podcast Bad Luck.

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: I know it plays on your mind a little bit.

00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: And you know what, There's a black cat and Bao Maine.

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 2: Oh, here we go.

5
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: And for some reason when I'm driving into work sometimes Kate,

6
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: I reckon. It's happened three or four times, and that

7
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 1: black cat will walk in front of my car as

8
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: I'm driving along, and there is a moment every time.

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: Where I go, I'm going to run over it. Here

10
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 2: we go. I'm going to have a really bad day today.

11
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's a black cat. I'm a bit like

12
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 3: that with ladders. I will walk around a ladder. So

13
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 3: I spill the salt on the on the Easter Holiday,

14
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 3: someone had obviously loosened the top of the salt jar.

15
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 3: So I went to like question that. Yeah hilarius, Yeah, hilarious,

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 3: and then I have to throw it over my left shoulder.

17
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 2: Chips are ruined world, Darren.

18
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: Chips.

19
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: On the holidays, Darren.

20
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 4: Brown did a thing, you know, Darren Brown. He does

21
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 4: his experiments Brownie Brown Dog, and he did one on

22
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 4: Luck and it was fascinating where they went and put

23
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 4: a statue of a dog in a town and a

24
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 4: small town in the UK, and they said to the town,

25
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 4: this statue brings luck, and it's moving from town to town.

26
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 4: So then they had hidden cameras and they watched people

27
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 4: go and you had to pat the statue the head

28
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 4: of the dog and it would bring you good luck.

29
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 4: And these people were turning up in their droves patting

30
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 4: the head of the dog, and then they were being

31
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 4: interviewed on the street saying how the day had changed,

32
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,479
Speaker 4: all this luck had happened. But this one guy who

33
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: wouldn't was a butcher who wouldn't pat the head of

34
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 4: the dog, and his luck just went downhill.

35
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 2: Meant nothing.

36
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 4: It meant nothing, but it was everybody's outlook on what

37
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 4: those moments were. And it's a good idea. Yeah he

38
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 4: got them a beauty with the old dog statue. The

39
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 4: other one is the broken mirror. Oh have you broken

40
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 4: a few?

41
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, staring at it.

42
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: So this is what happened. This happened not last night,

43
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 1: the night before. But we were all cleaning our teeth,

44
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: you easier in the studio with us as well, and

45
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden we heard something smash. We

46
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: go into the bathroom and there's Lenny toothbrush only a

47
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: small mirror. It was one of BJ's makeup mirrors came unfortunately,

48
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: it's fallen off the mirror, the actual mirror, and landed

49
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 1: and smashed itself. BJ then made the mistake by going, oh,

50
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: there's seven years bad luck to you. Lenny's ears prick

51
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: up and go really, for a seven year old, what

52
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: are you talking about?

53
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: You mean all the years I've lived so far, I'll.

54
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: Do them again, but bad bad and BJ goes, no,

55
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: that's the old that's the old myth that if you

56
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: break a mirror you're going to get seven years bad luck.

57
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: We all have a bit of a chuckle. That's fine.

58
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 2: Lenny couldn't sleep for the rest of the night. So

59
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: then how's his world now? So then how you laugh

60
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 2: at this?

61
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: Yesterday he has footy camp, so he's gone to his

62
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: footy camp and you know the weather was crappy yesterday.

63
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: So at footy camp yesterday.

64
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 1: This is This is the conversation, the text message conversation

65
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: that BJ has with Lenny.

66
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: Great.

67
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: Lenny kicks it off. I go home, help me please

68
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: bej says, what's up? He says, can I go home please?

00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: And she says why. He says, I've had a really

70
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: bad day. She goes, how question mark, he said, because

71
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: I broke that mirror. She said, it's okay. It wasn't deliberate,

72
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: and he said. Then he writes back, first, I tripped

73
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: over a chair when I got here and I landed

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,720

00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 2: the football and this black thing went into my eye.

78
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: It's been a nightmare now.

79
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: And then he writes, Mummy, can you please come and

80
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: get me because I don't feel like playing football my

81
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: stomach hurts. She doesn't reply, she's doing something else. Ten

82
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: minutes later, he says, I've also eaten all my food

83
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: and I'm really hungry.

84
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:50,119
Speaker 2: And that's bad luck.

85
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 4: It'smatic and that's going to happen to him for seven years.

86
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: This is I love Bejay's response here just typical, Mum.
