1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: This is the fitsy and with her with Kate Richie podcast,

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this. And I don't know if this

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: is a female thing, but it says here in this article,

4
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 1: you'll tell us. Well, I can explain it to you.

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: Can I'll explain. I'm so glad I'll come in this

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: morning for you to tell me about us. I can

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: tell you about you, how women work and how the

8
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: world works. Every married woman, I know, this is what

9
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: the article says, has a backup man, a backup man,

10
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: a friend. Apparently a backup man. Apparently this woman said

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: it to a friend and then she thought, hang on

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: a minute, I have somebody in mind as well as

13
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: a backup man. And they then started discussing, saying, I

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: think it's a known thing that girls when they get together.

15
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: If you have a conversation on the topic, you'll find

16
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,279
Speaker 1: that all married women have a backup man. What does

17
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: a backup man mean? She said, it's a planned b

18
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: that's the idea. So it's not all that scandalous, she says,

19
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: it's actually common practice. So the idea is that if

20
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: her long term relationship falls over, there's someone that she

21
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: could go to in the sorry fits is it like

22
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: in the interim or is it a She said, I've

23
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: got a friend who I've known forever. He's always been

24
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: in my life. It's just a friend. We don't text

25
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: that much, but I know he'd step in if I

26
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: needed him. The backup man, the backup man. Yeah, so

27
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: you are you communicating with the backup man every now

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: and then? Great question, Ryan James, because she said some

29
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: women have a roster, and the roster means they every

30
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,279
Speaker 1: now and then almost planned check in with that person

31
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,199
Speaker 1: just to keep the friendship going. Okay, so you've got

32
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: she said, I don't have a backup man. I've got

33
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: a backup bench. I keep the whole bench warm. I mean,

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: if you keep me the benchwarm, you're not serious about

35
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: your relationships. Whipper with Kate Ritchie is a Nova podcast
