Speaker 3: She's like, oh would she will the luck have a
Speaker 3: great day.
Speaker 1: How are you feeling?
Speaker 4: Though, I've been really emotional because it's the last time
Speaker 4: of the three of us. So on the weekend we
Speaker 4: went and had a little steak cane in the city
Speaker 4: together and we swam and it was everything that Sophia
Speaker 4: wanted to do. She wanted to swim in the heated pool.
Speaker 4: She ate chocolate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We walked
Speaker 4: down North Terrace and saw the lights to illuminate. Everything
Speaker 4: was for her. She had Yochi at like nine o'clock
Speaker 4: at night.
Speaker 2: We know her posing for a photo with a tiny
Speaker 2: little robe on with her leg just popping out. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, she does the legs. She does the leg
Speaker 2: pop a hip hop and the leg pop.

Speaker 3: every day with no rules? I'm like, no, mate, this is.
Speaker 1: All you get because as the next week your second fiddle.
Speaker 3: And then I spent the.
Speaker 4: Whole drive home crying because I was so emotional that
Speaker 4: it was the last.
Speaker 1: Do you know? Do you know what?
Speaker 2: This sounds awful but also good at the same time.
Speaker 2: I guess I feel like I don't even remember when
Speaker 2: it was the three of us. That's good, but no,
Speaker 2: but isn't that that's bad? Like there was three years
Speaker 2: when it was Austin, Jimmy and myself and I don't
Speaker 2: remember a time that Alfie wasn't there.
Speaker 1: And you'll be like that too, you know.
Speaker 3: And it's funny.
Speaker 4: We were driving and because I've been very highly emotional,
Speaker 4: you may have noticed.
Speaker 3: May have not. I'm not noticing. It's like my rock
Speaker 3: crying a lot.
Speaker 4: The music was on in the car and we like
Speaker 4: left the hotel and I started crying, and Sophia goes,
Speaker 4: what now.
Speaker 3: Turned the music off? And he goes right, family meeting, Mum,
Speaker 3: what's wrong? Are you okay? I'm like.
Speaker 4: And the three yes, and Sophie a little dictator in
Speaker 4: the bags, rolling her eyes like, can you Mary so
Speaker 4: we can turn the music back on.
Speaker 2: Speaking of music in cars, when we left the hospital
Speaker 2: with both kids, we played a.
Speaker 5: Yard That's the song I think of when they're coming out,
Speaker 5: you know, it's like me do it nah, And then
Speaker 5: the curtain dropped and.
Speaker 1: You see the light of their face and their little
Speaker 1: faces all screwed.
Speaker 3: And they're covering the white stuff. What is it called?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know fortos, whatever it is, I don't know.
Speaker 1: They might thank God, they.
Speaker 3: Want that shit.
Speaker 4: No, they well, you're not supposed to bath, and you've
Speaker 4: got to leave it on. It's good for their skin. Really,
Speaker 4: just cover it up in one's I.
Speaker 2: Feel like I didn't kiss that off his face. When
Speaker 2: I first smelt Alfie, he smelled like chocolate.
Speaker 3: And his favorite food now is chocolate.
Speaker 1: It's weird. I literally said that was like, hey, this
Speaker 1: kid smells like chocolate.
Speaker 3: Austin would have been something healthy like because he's such
Speaker 3: a health free All.
Speaker 2: Right, well, we're very very this is our last podcast
Speaker 2: that we're recording without a baby on your lap.
Speaker 1: You've got Betty little baby Doggie.
Speaker 2: Who's weirdly nuzzles into your fanny every single podcast. If
Speaker 2: you watch the videos closely, you would have seen that
Speaker 2: she has.
Speaker 3: Been like this, This is how I sleep at night.
Speaker 3: She was like this before, Like I always knew that
Speaker 3: I was pregnant.
Speaker 4: Mentally, yeah, but she was like this before I actually
Speaker 4: knew dogs are so intuitive.
Speaker 2: Mom, No, do you ever think that my morbid brain
Speaker 2: if she's if my dog starts sniffing a certain part
Speaker 2: of my body, I'm like, is there something wrong?
Speaker 1: Can you smell a tumer?
Speaker 4: Well they can't. They say dogs can smell. No, I
Speaker 4: know before it happens.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm a little member of the week.
Speaker 2: It's school holidays at the moment, right, and I've taken
Speaker 2: a week off. It's been amazing, and I just want
Speaker 2: to pick paint the picture of having an eleven year
Speaker 2: old boy.
Speaker 1: It's my favorite age.
Speaker 2: And I always say this on the podcast because it's innocent,
Speaker 2: but it's fun, it's cheeky, but it's they still need
Speaker 2: their moms. It's all of that, right, So this is
Speaker 2: what it's like. They get their backpack in the morning,
Speaker 2: they pack their little soccer ball in there, maybe a
Speaker 2: drink bottle if they remember that. Then they get set
Speaker 2: up on their way on their little scooter to their
Speaker 2: friend's house. And we all live close together, so there's
Speaker 2: like five of them, and they screwed to each other's
Speaker 2: houses and then they scooted to the park. And at
Speaker 2: the part they're playing soccer until the sun almost dips
Speaker 2: below the grass. We can't contact them because none of
Speaker 2: them have phones yet, because we haven't let them have
Speaker 2: phones yet. So we start stressing and we're driving around
Speaker 2: the neighborhoods.
Speaker 1: Trying to find them.
Speaker 2: But then we always find them and they're together and
Speaker 2: they're fine. And then after they've played soccer, they go
Speaker 2: Coloone shopping. What they're obsessed with Colonne shopping. It's amazing.
Speaker 2: They went into Runde Wall and they went to Sephora,
Speaker 2: and they went to Mecca, and they went to David
Speaker 2: Jones and Meyer and Star Chemists, and they got all
Speaker 2: of the samples because they love Colone shopping. They're obsessed
Speaker 2: with all the expensive brands. And I'm not talking like
Speaker 2: David Beckham. I'm talking like, why so I went and
Speaker 2: got They fought over this little you know, when we
Speaker 2: went and got your expensive bag that you just bought
Speaker 2: for your push present.
Speaker 3: I'm not telling anyone about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one we got little sofa that day. The
Speaker 2: boys have stolen those samples. This is the best thing ever.
Speaker 3: I'm wearing my sample right now. Al smells lucks, It
Speaker 3: smells right.
Speaker 1: Algys to bed last night.
Speaker 2: But my low light of the holidays happened and it
Speaker 2: was the saddest thing I think that's happened. So Alfie
Speaker 2: often I'm still I'll sleep with him, right we sleep
Speaker 2: next to each other because I love sleeping next wee
Speaker 2: him because it's really nice.
Speaker 1: His bedrooms at.
Speaker 3: The end of the house and you don't have much
Speaker 3: time of that left.
Speaker 1: No, I love it. So anyway, during the holidays, I
Speaker 1: was like, this is a great time. I've cleaned your room.
Speaker 1: I'll just go and get my things.
Speaker 2: So I go to my bedroom and I get my
Speaker 2: pillow under one arm, I've got my phone charge room one.
Speaker 2: I've got my drink bottle and my box of tissues
Speaker 2: because I was a bit sick. So I walk into
Speaker 2: his room and I've got all my things. I'm in
Speaker 2: my pajamas, ready to go to bed.
Speaker 1: It's so sad.
Speaker 2: And I walk into his room and he's on his
Speaker 2: laptop and he's facetiming a couple of people, and I'm like,
Speaker 2: are we gonna go to bed? And he's like, oh, oh, Mom,
Speaker 2: I'm just on the phone. I'm like, oh, I thought
Speaker 2: we were going to go. You don't want me to
Speaker 2: sleep here tonight. And he's like, oh, it's okay, baby,
Speaker 2: it's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 1: I won't I won't put the guilty properly. It's fine.
Speaker 1: I'll go back to my bedroom. I'm actually will come.
Speaker 3: Here in Italian it's good.
Speaker 6: No.
Speaker 1: No, I didn't want to.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to make itim feel guilty. And then
Speaker 2: he's like, oh, I feel so bad. My MoMA feels
Speaker 2: so bad. I'm so sorry. Hold on and he puts
Speaker 2: his friends on hold and he's like, I'm so sorry, mom,
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's okay, you don't have to feel bad.
Speaker 1: I was dying inside. My heart literally frighted, and I
Speaker 1: went back to bed.
Speaker 2: And then at eleven o'clock or whenever he finished his
Speaker 2: phone call, he wakes me up and he's like, mom,
Speaker 2: you can come in now, come into the bed.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, no, no, you chose your friends
Speaker 1: over me. It's fine to stake.
Speaker 3: My No, I'm not second fiddle to your friends.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it was.
Speaker 2: So like, it was so embarrassing. I was embarrassed in
Speaker 2: front of my eleven year old boars. I walked in
Speaker 2: with all my things for you to sleep over it,
Speaker 2: and he didn't want me. I had to walk out
Speaker 2: of the room.
Speaker 3: Little traggies, You ready.
Speaker 1: My eyemask, go on? Ready to sleep? Anyway, that's my man?
Speaker 3: All right, big week.
Speaker 4: So a little bit later, I'm going to talk about
Speaker 4: a letter I got on my car from what I
Speaker 4: think was a woman.
Speaker 3: You think it was a man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got a theory why I think it's a man.
Speaker 4: We've put it on social media. A lot of people
Speaker 4: are angry at this letter.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a nice letter. No, it's a passive, aggressive,
Speaker 1: disgusting letter.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Speaking to about that a little bit later on. And
Speaker 4: you want to talk about your parents. Your mum hasn't
Speaker 4: been very well.
Speaker 2: Oh, I've had a bit of a week. I feel
Speaker 2: a bit wobbly talking about this. But it's something I've
Speaker 2: noticed about my mum and dad's marriage that I've probably
Speaker 2: never realized until this week. And I think it's really
Speaker 2: relatable because I think in our parents' generation it was
Speaker 2: done very differently.
Speaker 1: Everyone had their role and.
Speaker 2: They quietly do their role without the other person knowing
Speaker 2: anything about it. And mum is has pneumonia in the
Speaker 2: moment and bad it's all of it's been both lungs.
Speaker 2: It's just it's knocked her for six and she's at home.
Speaker 1: With hospital care.
Speaker 2: She had nurse coming in the morning, in the middle
Speaker 2: of the day, at night. She's got IV, she got oxygen,
Speaker 2: she's got all the things happening right. And I know
Speaker 2: I talk about my parents on the show a lot,
Speaker 2: but it's because I am really close to my family,
Speaker 2: and like ridiculously close, Like my umbilical cord.
Speaker 1: Is still attached to my mum. And so.
Speaker 2: I've noticed something as an only child now that I
Speaker 2: can't really talk about with anybody else, and that is
Speaker 2: that since mum's been sick, my dad has had to
Speaker 2: take the reins for other things around the house. And
Speaker 2: this is not me painting dads as villains or anything
Speaker 2: like that, because it's actually been beautiful to watch. But Dad,
Speaker 2: in the fifty years that they've been married, fifty four
Speaker 2: years I think they've been married, Dad's never done the
Speaker 2: supermarket shopping ever. In fact, I think he's walked into
Speaker 2: a supermarket maybe five times in those fifty years, and
Speaker 2: that would be with my mum or to get a
Speaker 2: bottle of water or something. It's never done the full shop,
Speaker 2: which is such an strange thing in itself to imagine
Speaker 2: never going.
Speaker 1: Into a supermarket. Isn't that a weird thing? It's very well,
Speaker 1: we know our way around with our eyes shut. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he doesn't know anything, so.
Speaker 4: And he wouldn't know what it takes to run the household. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you just open the fridge and it's there. You open
Speaker 4: the pantry and it's there here, like if you said
Speaker 4: go buy everything.
Speaker 3: He's got no idea.
Speaker 2: So Mum knows what's running out, where it is in
Speaker 2: the supermarket, what he likes, what she likes, what you
Speaker 2: need to make that and this and so at the moment,
Speaker 2: their house is running out of food. So I've been
Speaker 2: going to I've been making soups and trying to get
Speaker 2: things for them so they don't have to cook right,
Speaker 2: And Dad tried to go to the supermarket, got all
Speaker 2: the wrong things, and Mum being a bit of a martyr,
Speaker 2: which our mums are full martyrs, you're not going to
Speaker 2: do it right, So I may as well go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be on my deathbed, but I'll literally.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mum cannot breathe. She shouldn't be twenty meters because
Speaker 2: she can barely breathe. But she the other day, I'm
Speaker 2: on the phone to them, Why why are in the
Speaker 2: carry you going to the doctors? No, we're just going
Speaker 2: to the supermarket. Why are you going to the supermarket?
Speaker 1: Mum? You can barely stand up?
Speaker 2: Because your dad he can't. I need to show him
Speaker 2: where things are.
Speaker 1: It's actually really sad to think about it that she
Speaker 1: was there, couldn't breathe had a mask on because she
Speaker 1: had to show him things that he didn't know. And
Speaker 1: it's not like he's not willing. He wants to help
Speaker 1: in every single way he can, as your dad would
Speaker 1: be the same.
Speaker 3: But he does other things around the house and much
Speaker 3: other stuff.
Speaker 1: It's the roles, but it's such an old fashioned way now.
Speaker 2: I think because our part husbands they know their way
Speaker 2: around the supermarket, they know their way around better than
Speaker 2: we know our way around.
Speaker 3: No, well, it's funny that you mentioned these.
Speaker 4: Yesterday I sent Burgiae to the weekly shop and he goes,
Speaker 4: what do you guys, what do you want? I'm like,
Speaker 4: the weekly shop, go to the does don't be smart?
Speaker 4: What do you want in the weekly shop? I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: what do we have? What do Sofia have?
Speaker 3: In our lunchbox.
Speaker 4: I was because I'm being a bitch, massive bitch, And
Speaker 4: I send him and I might, well, do we have berries?
Speaker 3: Do we have bananas? Do we have yogurt? Do we
Speaker 3: have bread? Do we have milk? What do you have
Speaker 3: when you open the fridge? A snap?
Speaker 4: Snap, snap, snaptap, and then the texts and then and
Speaker 4: then he send me screenshots to the trolley. I'm like,
Speaker 4: well that's I don't eat beef mintce. I eat turkey mints,
Speaker 4: so I know that. Yeah, why would you buy beef mints?
Speaker 4: Oh it's for me because it's lean.
Speaker 3: Like, oh, it's just so snappy. But I got annoyed
Speaker 3: because we have to do it with our eyes shut.
Speaker 1: We have to know. But at least he is out
Speaker 1: there doing it. It's not like he's being vindictive and
Speaker 1: doesn't want to do it and saying you need to
Speaker 1: be in the kitchen.
Speaker 4: I always take the reins on that stuff. But then
Speaker 4: he was like, do you need bin liners? Do you
Speaker 4: need washing powder? Do you need I was like, yes, no,
Speaker 4: you do we need oh yeah, because I'm in the
Speaker 4: chain and the bowling.
Speaker 1: Chain in the laundry. So that's what it was like.
Speaker 2: Mom, apparently walked into the souper market and she's pointing
Speaker 2: to him. He's had He was like, it was the
Speaker 2: periodic table. He was like, I have no idea what
Speaker 2: any of these things are and what they do.
Speaker 1: I just know that I love Roses cooking.
Speaker 4: But is your mama Marta in a sense of like, so, say,
Speaker 4: sometimes my dad will go to the supermarket and it
Speaker 4: will buy his favorite yogurt. Yeah, but Mom's like, that's
Speaker 4: not the brand we buy.
Speaker 3: We don't use that yogurt. We use this yoga And
Speaker 3: he goes, it's just yogurt.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's exactly what It's like.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: But the sad thing is, and I guess it's kind
Speaker 1: of a learning thing, is that I hate thinking about this.
Speaker 1: But one day, if you know, one of them will
Speaker 1: not be able.
Speaker 2: To do stuff because something has happened to them, the
Speaker 2: other one is left with everything. So how do you
Speaker 2: make sure that that other one left is okay?
Speaker 1: You have to.
Speaker 2: I think I've actually been thinking about this. I feel
Speaker 2: like I want to take a bunch of old dads
Speaker 2: like my dad. When I say old, they're young, they're young,
Speaker 2: but they're old. Do you know what I mean they're
Speaker 2: seventy five. Take them to the supermarket.
Speaker 1: And do a tour and show them where things are.
Speaker 1: Do a cooking class.
Speaker 2: I get sprout should do this like I could cooking
Speaker 2: class with dads, just to show them simple, five simple
Speaker 2: recipes that they can make, because I swear to God,
Speaker 2: my dad would not be able to make a thing.
Speaker 2: In fact, I tested him.
Speaker 1: I was on this.
Speaker 2: Couch yesterday and I was like, I'm just going to
Speaker 2: do a little test to see how much my dad
Speaker 2: actually knows about food and shopping and prices and things
Speaker 2: like that.
Speaker 1: Have a listen. Wayne Pearson snaps. You can follow him
Speaker 1: on Instagram now joins the show. Have a listen to this.
Speaker 7: What's co churs course?
Speaker 6: Because I know what it is.
Speaker 3: It's like a rice type thing. It's past.
Speaker 1: How would you make a suit? What's the first thing
Speaker 1: you can do?
Speaker 6: You make a soup? I will get a can?
Speaker 1: I can?
Speaker 2: I can a tomato soup?
Speaker 3: How do you make a soup?
Speaker 1: Put him in the sauceman? How many minutes does it
Speaker 1: take to boil an egg?
Speaker 8: Too?
Speaker 1: Twelve dish washing tablets?
Speaker 7: I think about thirteen tried but trickle that?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 3: Really?
Speaker 7: I named five vegetables, carrots, potatoes, carrots and potatoes, humpkin,
Speaker 7: broccoli and onion.
Speaker 1: And if you were to roast them, what would you do?
Speaker 7: Well, put them in one of those metal plates in
Speaker 7: the oven. Put them in there and a little bit
Speaker 7: of butter. I've got no idea, no idea.
Speaker 1: What's the difference between zucchini and kikomba?
Speaker 7: The queue and kikamba the similar shape, But I don't
Speaker 7: know one's a bit more tasty.
Speaker 9: Than the other.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but I wouldn't know the difference between a
Speaker 4: zucchini and a cucumber.
Speaker 3: That was a tricky one.
Speaker 1: You don't know the different what's the difference? What's the
Speaker 1: salad ones? Vegetable? One's in the salad? You have cucumber
Speaker 1: in your salads? Yea old? And then you cook the zucchini.
Speaker 3: You can eat zucchinny raw.
Speaker 1: You can't eat it raw?
Speaker 3: Yeah, and all sorts of stuff you treat twinter there,
Speaker 3: that was a trick. I'm a wain O's side here.
Speaker 1: That was a trick he thought was rice.
Speaker 4: I know my dad would have no idea as well.
Speaker 4: The only thing my dad does and it kills my mum.
Speaker 4: He goes to the supermarket. Most days he buys ice cream, chocolate,
Speaker 4: push your toe, everything he doesn't need. But he wouldn't
Speaker 4: know the same. Every question you ask your dad, my
Speaker 4: dad would have.
Speaker 1: Okay, so we're onto something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we need to get all our dads and we
Speaker 2: need to help them just in case the worst happens
Speaker 2: and moms aren't able to do stuff.
Speaker 1: You need to know what to do.
Speaker 2: It's the same with like even like in my relationship
Speaker 2: with Jimmy, I don't know he does all our banking
Speaker 2: and bills and all that stuff. I don't know any
Speaker 2: of that passwords. If something happened to him, I wouldn't
Speaker 2: even know.
Speaker 1: Where to go. I don't know where our wheels are.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We've got so many different Like I
Speaker 1: don't know where homelan is. So that's scary. That's so scary.
Speaker 1: I know it's changing.
Speaker 3: I don't know where your homelone is.
Speaker 1: I don't know because it's not my role. My role
Speaker 1: is other things in the house.
Speaker 2: It's it's pretty it's pretty scary because you do really
Speaker 2: and it does show you. Like with mum's health this week,
Speaker 2: I was like, she's the fittest, healthiest person and it
Speaker 2: just went like that, and you just you just don't
Speaker 2: know when something's gonna happen. So I think we all
Speaker 2: need to be more prepared for this kind of stuff,
Speaker 2: like that green box theory. You write down all the
Speaker 2: things that you need to know, put it in a
Speaker 2: box somewhere in case something happens.
Speaker 3: And our moms need to stop being martyrs. And if the.
Speaker 1: Dad's mate, you're a marter as well me, you're a marta.
Speaker 3: I was a bit martyr yesterday.
Speaker 1: You one hundred percent of mart I don't eat beef
Speaker 1: mince like you like man doing his best, trying to
Speaker 1: get stuff for the family, asking if it's okay, Like
Speaker 1: you could have just said, yes, get the beef mince
Speaker 1: for you, but could you mind getting some turkey mince
Speaker 1: as well.
Speaker 3: I don't need this from you right now.
Speaker 9: I'm on your side all the I'm just trying to
Speaker 9: I don't know the Devil's anyone to think that I've
Speaker 9: been like a bit crazy the last few weeks, anyone
Speaker 9: to think I'm tinkeringge look out for the signs, And
Speaker 9: I'm telling you there's a.
Speaker 1: Sign right now.
Speaker 3: Blink once if you need out.
Speaker 1: Part offles a safe word. All right, that's my little
Speaker 1: thing this week.
Speaker 2: So if you are, if you do have a dad,
Speaker 2: let us know DMUs anytime, because I kind of really
Speaker 2: want to do this is not something we're saying.
Speaker 1: I really want to get a group of dads together
Speaker 1: and take them to food Land or and then do
Speaker 1: a cooking class or something, just so they know.
Speaker 3: That would be really nice. Can we make that happen?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I will because you'll be off having it.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to do anything.
Speaker 1: I will make it happen.
Speaker 3: You do it.
Speaker 1: It's on me, I'm promise.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this letter.
Speaker 3: All right, Hayley Pearson.
Speaker 4: You've seen this letter, but for those of you who
Speaker 4: haven't seen on social just do a little recap. So
Speaker 4: on the weekend, went to Mitcham Shopping Center, go into
Speaker 4: the cinemas to see the Minions movie with Sophia.
Speaker 1: Beautiful, great movie, Mum daughter day.
Speaker 4: Mum daughter Day, doing a lot of them. So I
Speaker 4: parked in what I thought was a park. I did
Speaker 4: a park. I mean, I'm not the best parker, but
Speaker 4: I parked it, and then I walked inside and then
Speaker 4: I came back from the movie to this letter on
Speaker 4: my windscreen. Hello, I see you've parked blindfolded again, and
Speaker 4: this time with a crazed ferret upon your face.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's funny.
Speaker 3: And I was like, do I have a mistake?
Speaker 1: You're blind? Clearly you were blind parking and you weren't
Speaker 1: doing a good job parking.
Speaker 4: Okay, see that's what the blind ferret means. What did
Speaker 4: you think it meant like facial hair?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: No, meaning like you've got someone across your eyes, so
Speaker 2: you're literally parking with your eyes closed.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay.
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, hold moonal think I was offended. Okay,
Speaker 4: blind fare upon your face?
Speaker 3: Dot dot dot. If only you weren't so fat, love
Speaker 3: heart whoa.
Speaker 1: Okay, there's a lot to with this with this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, first of all, when you read it, did Sophia
Speaker 2: say what's that letter?
Speaker 1: Did she ask?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: I hit it from Sofia because I never wanted no,
Speaker 4: that's what I was home. I would rather say fuck
Speaker 4: in front of my child with fat so no.
Speaker 2: No, Okay, let's start at the top. I have had
Speaker 2: cars notes of my car saying learn how to park
Speaker 2: blanker Like, that's fine and it's and it's fair because
Speaker 2: we're not great at parking terrible. You're probably the worst
Speaker 2: parker in South Australia. You had this ability to park
Speaker 2: across driveways in no standing zone.
Speaker 4: Remember that time I ended up on can't park for ship?
Speaker 4: Yeah without brand of car. Yeah, that is why we
Speaker 4: don't have branded cars anymore, because it's actually detrimental.
Speaker 2: To quite familiar your face around South Australia, so people
Speaker 2: look inside and they just see your little face and
Speaker 2: quite often you're waving both hands in the air because
Speaker 2: you're on the phone to someone.
Speaker 3: My car doesn't start unless I'm on the phone.
Speaker 1: That's that is why.
Speaker 2: By the by the way, my friends, that you can't
Speaker 2: park is only because you're distracted talking to someone on
Speaker 2: the phone.
Speaker 1: You're making a business deal.
Speaker 4: But I also how many times have people message us going, hey,
Speaker 4: you cut me off on Anzac Highway.
Speaker 1: All the time, all the time.
Speaker 2: It's just a thing that when Lauren drives, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm so surprised you haven't had more accidents, But you don't.
Speaker 2: You go forty like going up a freeway because you're
Speaker 2: talking and you can't do two things at once because
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do it, and you don't really have any
Speaker 2: consideration for any other cars around it.
Speaker 4: And this is why I'm so glad we have our
Speaker 4: own cars right now. We just drive our cars. We
Speaker 4: were and bought two of the same matching cars. We've
Speaker 4: only got one number on our number plates at a
Speaker 4: different and we both treat them like actra.
Speaker 1: Shit mine is a piece of shit.
Speaker 3: Your car is foul. It is just covered in scratch.
Speaker 1: It has washed it in maybe nine months.
Speaker 4: I had a lady hit my car and I said, oh,
Speaker 4: don't worry about it. So now I've just got a
Speaker 4: massive dent to the back. I didn't take her detail.
Speaker 1: I thought that was the koala that you hit on
Speaker 1: the No, No, that.
Speaker 3: Was that's been fixed. That's different.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: So so the first part of that message is actually fair,
Speaker 2: Like yes, if I if I saw you parking again,
Speaker 2: like obviously again, this person knows you. It's fair enough
Speaker 2: to write a letter. Sometimes you've got an event. That's fine.
Speaker 2: That first part is fair.
Speaker 3: But then if they know me, so then are they
Speaker 3: a friend calling me fat?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: This is the thing, Okay, I don't think they know you,
Speaker 2: because they don't they think that you're they're calling you fat.
Speaker 1: They don't know you're pregnant.
Speaker 2: That's why Lauren has looked like she's put on weight
Speaker 2: because she's pregnant. She has a baby in her belly. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she's actually has not put on weight anywhere else other
Speaker 2: than her tummy.
Speaker 4: But also at the end, I'm sorry, your feet and
Speaker 4: your ankles and everything gets to be swollen. And the
Speaker 4: one thing that does annoy me is people think that
Speaker 4: they can make comment. Like my dad said the other day,
Speaker 4: he said, a few old guys go, oh, Lauren's put
Speaker 4: on some weight on the show. She put on some
Speaker 4: weight and.
Speaker 3: Dad was like, she's pregnant. She's fucking pregnant.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, okay, this is That's what I mean.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's a man. I feel like, how
Speaker 2: could another woman say that to another woman and.
Speaker 1: Put her down like that and think it's okay.
Speaker 2: After if she's seen you get out of your car,
Speaker 2: she's seen you walk inside with your.
Speaker 1: Beautiful little girl holding hands.
Speaker 2: On a mother daughter day, and she still has your
Speaker 2: audacity to write that in your car.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a woman.
Speaker 4: I do because women are bitches. Women bring other women down.
Speaker 4: Men don't have time. When women go out, we dress
Speaker 4: for other women. Men don't know brands, men don't know hair,
Speaker 4: we dress because women are the ones that go, oh,
Speaker 4: she looks skanky, she looks young, I.
Speaker 3: Know she looks.
Speaker 1: Should think better of women.
Speaker 2: Okay, So the reason I think it's a man is
Speaker 2: because AI thought, surely a woman wouldn't write that to
Speaker 2: another woman. But the love heart, So it signs off
Speaker 2: with a love heart. But the love heart is not
Speaker 2: a female written love heart. It's written like a guy
Speaker 2: that doesn't know how to do a love heart, like
Speaker 2: a passive aggressive I'm just gonna put a love.
Speaker 1: Heart here, you bitch kind of thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the bottom's pointy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the bottoms point is how Alphie does a love heart.
Speaker 1: It's how a guy would do a love heart. Yeah.
Speaker 4: See a lot of people are saying a guy wouldn't
Speaker 4: be fucked writing this.
Speaker 1: Read out some of the comments. People are saying, it's
Speaker 1: been wild.
Speaker 4: I love Burjo, you are the worst parker on earth.
Speaker 4: I'm like, all right, let's start with a positive sandwich.
Speaker 3: Next time. Could have start with, hey, babe, love you.
Speaker 4: About the facts he was, and then he spoke about
Speaker 4: how miserable this person is. Next one, Okay, your parking
Speaker 4: skills are not great, Lozo, thanks Flick. No, most people
Speaker 4: are saying death's a woman, and by the looks a
Speaker 4: jealous one at that they saw, they were triggered and
Speaker 4: they wrote scum. I hope whoever wrote this feels like
Speaker 4: they have consistently stubbed their toe or hit their elbow.
Speaker 3: That's funny.
Speaker 2: It has to be someone that's older then, because they've
Speaker 2: got the time to write a letter.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, someone wrote that the love heart is
Speaker 4: giving a man, and then someone I thought the opposite
Speaker 4: about the love heart. Yes, girls know how to draw
Speaker 4: love hearts better. Yes, someone has wrote that.
Speaker 2: Oh, let's put that. We're going to put that on
Speaker 2: our social media. Now the actual love heart. Who drew
Speaker 2: the love heart?
Speaker 3: I think this was written by not a very nice
Speaker 3: woman unfortunately.
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's just go back to the car park
Speaker 2: because you took Burjo there to show him the car park.
Speaker 2: Because when this all happened, Burgo and I were on
Speaker 2: a side message with each other and I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't want to put this on social media because
Speaker 2: I feel like putting this out, this negativity out in
Speaker 2: the world.
Speaker 3: We want a message together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, because I was like she's about to
Speaker 2: have a baby. Let's just focus on the positive stuff
Speaker 2: and don't give this woman or man any air and
Speaker 2: so but then I was like, she is Lauren sad
Speaker 2: about it?
Speaker 1: Is she angry because Burjo was out the night that
Speaker 1: you got the car got that letter.
Speaker 2: So we were on a side message talking about how
Speaker 2: we deal with this, and then we're also like, is
Speaker 2: there footage?
Speaker 1: How do we find this person? Can I go and
Speaker 1: knock on their door?
Speaker 4: Well, interestingly enough, the person wrote it on their shopping receipt.
Speaker 1: Have you got the receipt? Have we got their number?
Speaker 4: Well, everyone said their rewards app or something will be
Speaker 4: on their receipt, but there's no number on the receipt.
Speaker 4: They bought sour dough and milk because they're sour.
Speaker 1: That's so true, they're so sour.
Speaker 3: But I love sour dough.
Speaker 1: I love speaker for the guard.
Speaker 3: It doesn't make you bloated, so nice. It was olive sour.
Speaker 1: We should be frough fi fi and fetal.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 4: So the next night, because I was still thinking about it,
Speaker 4: I didn't think about it. And then I was like,
Speaker 4: I'm fine, everything's fine. Everyone needs to chill out. And
Speaker 4: then I was thinking about it. I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: that is so mean when you're pregnant. And so then
Speaker 4: I was like, Berger, I want to take you past
Speaker 4: the park I parked in so you can see, and
Speaker 4: this is what happened the crime scene of where I
Speaker 4: got the letter gets that opened the window.
Speaker 1: That's the part you think that.
Speaker 10: Was a park.
Speaker 6: It's half apart and then there's there's reason no one's
Speaker 6: in it now. But the high voltage in the poles
Speaker 6: coming halfway to the park, it's half a party that it.
Speaker 3: Doesn't explain the other half of the letter doesn't. It's
Speaker 3: definitely not a park.
Speaker 2: Who they're like a giant box sticking out, so it's
Speaker 2: not a part.
Speaker 4: It's like a high voltage box. And then there's like ballards.
Speaker 4: But I took that as a lart. But I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: that's a nice park.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: I want to ask our team because when we're recording
Speaker 2: this podcast, we've got Milli our producer, and Moggie are
Speaker 2: video producer with us.
Speaker 3: I've had my micover.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's turn our mic over and fight and think
Speaker 1: ask them what they think? All right, Milli, you, what's
Speaker 1: your actual thoughts on the letter? Male? Or female.
Speaker 8: I've never been angrier at reading something in my life
Speaker 8: like the Fury. But I think it was a woman,
Speaker 8: as much as I don't want to say it. Women
Speaker 8: are so fucking cruel sometimes, and I think a lot
Speaker 8: of the time it comes from a place of insecurity
Speaker 8: when it's a woman.
Speaker 1: Do you think this person knew Lauren?
Speaker 8: God, I hope not. I just want to know, because
Speaker 8: I just hope not. The fact that there could be
Speaker 8: people like that in this world that knows, someone.
Speaker 3: Knows their story, their history.
Speaker 8: The fact you're pregnant and still says that, oh just
Speaker 8: me makes me feel sick.
Speaker 1: It's so bad, Moggie.
Speaker 2: The only male in our team, in fact, the only
Speaker 2: male in a group of what we've got thirteen staff.
Speaker 1: We love you so much, you're one of the girls.
Speaker 1: What do you think.
Speaker 10: I think it's not a man, that's for sure, because
Speaker 10: it's too much to write. Oh no, not that I
Speaker 10: would probably do something like that, but be too too
Speaker 10: many words.
Speaker 1: Yeah, would have taken too much time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So maybe we're all in agreeance that it
Speaker 2: was a retiree woman. It was an older woman who
Speaker 2: has too much time in her hands and doesn't know
Speaker 2: you doesn't watch hell essay.
Speaker 10: But then it's still said again.
Speaker 1: So she knows Lauren. Then that's weird.
Speaker 10: But then also like people can remember number plates, Yeah.
Speaker 1: But my number plates basically exactly the same.
Speaker 2: Maybe they think the same person because I'm also a
Speaker 2: ship parker. Oh my god, maybe last time they saw
Speaker 2: they think we're the same person.
Speaker 1: They saw me last week. She's put on weight because
Speaker 1: she took pregnant. Last time that all met it was me.
Speaker 3: You were literally also the worst driver.
Speaker 1: I have been.
Speaker 4: Up with the traffic lights next to you with a
Speaker 4: slight pineapple on my car, waving and you're like this.
Speaker 3: You don't even turn, you just look.
Speaker 1: Straight out because I'm looking at the road.
Speaker 3: Oh you know, I like to look around at my surroundings.
Speaker 1: You do. I have both hands on the steering wheel
Speaker 1: and I'm looking at the road. But it is weird.
Speaker 1: I don't see any of my surroundings in the next lane.
Speaker 3: All right, it's any conclusion.
Speaker 4: It was a bitchy old woman who probably hasn't had
Speaker 4: sex in a while.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she's got way too much time on her
Speaker 1: hands and doesn't shop at food lands.
Speaker 4: So we don't like her, No, we don't like her anyway,
Speaker 4: she said to us, Yeah, anyway, thanks for the really
Speaker 4: nice comments. I didn't put it out for that stuff.
Speaker 4: I wasn't angry, I wasn't upset. It wasn't like the
Speaker 4: last email I got, which like cut me to the core.
Speaker 1: Lisa.
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm pregnant.
Speaker 1: I heavily pregnant too, like about to give birth tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Literally about to give birth.
Speaker 4: But everyone has written some really lovely things and some
Speaker 4: really funny things, and there's a lot of foul language
Speaker 4: on the post, which made me laugh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still going to try and get the cc
Speaker 1: TV footage.
Speaker 3: We should message Mitcham.
Speaker 4: This is what I could never ever do anything bad.
Speaker 4: Even if you parked across three car parks, I would
Speaker 4: be like, that's a terrible car park. But I could
Speaker 4: never write a letter. I could never know putt.
Speaker 1: Also because we don't have a pen in our car
Speaker 1: or a receipt, and.
Speaker 3: I also don't care enough. I'm busy.
Speaker 1: I just can't be bother. That don't mean leaves my
Speaker 1: body immediately, like.
Speaker 4: I'm angry at you, and then I go, oh, something shiny, Yeah,
Speaker 4: do you know what. Also, maybe we shouldn't judge this
Speaker 4: person because maybe they're having a really terrible time in
Speaker 4: their life and they've taken it out on me.
Speaker 1: No, I'm judging them really. Yeah, they don't know what
Speaker 1: you're going through. Yeah I did, Like you could have
Speaker 1: parked there because there was an emergency and you had
Speaker 1: to run inside.
Speaker 3: And buy some popcorns. Yeah, and some old Jesus that.
Speaker 2: She doesn't know that, she doesn't know why you parked
Speaker 2: there like that, So don't defend her.
Speaker 3: No, I'm not defending her.
Speaker 4: But you know what I always think, if someone's a
Speaker 4: bitch to you, always go are you okay? And chances
Speaker 4: are they break down. I'm sorry, my dad's sick or
Speaker 4: my mum sick, or my kid's been sick. I haven't slept,
Speaker 4: you know. When people really snap in it not very nice.
Speaker 2: I know, but we're just all fierce lion protectors of you.
Speaker 2: Right now, I don't have any sympathy for this person.
Speaker 2: She had no right to write that to you.
Speaker 4: No, well, maybe I'll just have to let everyone know
Speaker 4: like that, the ones that haven't seen the podcast or
Speaker 4: seen social like the old men.
Speaker 3: Oh do you know what I was thinking the other day?
Speaker 3: Do you remember that odd I know what we're gonna say.
Speaker 4: Remember, we had a client once again, an old dude
Speaker 4: that when I was pregnant with Sophia.
Speaker 3: Yes, he went get a fat.
Speaker 1: Sow are you That's what I mean. He was one
Speaker 1: of the people I thought of because he's an old
Speaker 1: man who doesn't get it.
Speaker 4: And I was like, fat so twenty nine weeks pregnant
Speaker 4: and I was so upset. It's always I.
Speaker 3: Had a man the other day touch my tummy. He
Speaker 3: touched my tummy and said, oh, a.
Speaker 1: Lot of cake in there?
Speaker 3: What So, this is what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's a man. It's a man that they don't get it.
Speaker 2: Yes, you grow a belly because you're having a baby.
Speaker 1: Fat So.
Speaker 2: Someone on that post called burgo or lardass, which I
Speaker 2: love the term lartass. I think it's such a funny harder.
Speaker 2: It's like from the eighties, you're a lartass. But like
Speaker 2: if you kind of put together the things that are mean,
Speaker 2: lard ass fat so up there with the top and
Speaker 2: it was a guy and they were men.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but men don't sound like yeah, a lot of Kate.
Speaker 3: She's three point.
Speaker 4: Five kilos right now, Like it's not okay, No, it's Okay,
Speaker 4: it's not it's legs.
Speaker 3: You're right.
Speaker 4: It's always men making comments about women's way, and older
Speaker 4: men they.
Speaker 3: Don't think about it.
Speaker 4: I mean, younger men wouldn't like the Jimmy's and Burgos
Speaker 4: of the world, would never like you could literally have
Speaker 4: a foot hanging out of your vagina pregnant and Burgero
Speaker 4: of blate.
Speaker 2: So have you been so I reckon this the theme
Speaker 2: of this episode. Then we've kind of covered. It's the
Speaker 2: generational things. We love our parents, but the older people
Speaker 2: are very different to what we are.
Speaker 1: Like I think we're masage shading.
Speaker 4: We try to be accepting, we try to be more accepting.
Speaker 4: We're trying to be nicer, and I have to say
Speaker 4: that we're so lucky. Like my mum even said it
Speaker 4: to Burgo yesterday. She's like, you do so much around
Speaker 4: the house. She goes, I didn't. I didn't get that help.
Speaker 4: Like my dad literally came to the hospital, went back
Speaker 4: to work, no fault of his. But that generation, they
Speaker 4: weren't changing nappies.
Speaker 1: No doing all this. Great Grandpa's great, the best best
Speaker 1: Grandpa's yes.
Speaker 4: Because they've got the time. But back then they worked
Speaker 4: from six am to six PM, and it was all
Speaker 4: on the wife, all on the on the mother to
Speaker 4: either not work or try and work and run everything.
Speaker 4: So we're very lucky to have that.
Speaker 1: We're very lucky. And can I just say as we
Speaker 1: wrap this podcast up, we're very lucky that we've got you,
Speaker 1: me and this little baby inside that has been part
Speaker 1: of every single podcast. She's going to know every episode
Speaker 1: back to front because she's been with us the whole time.
Speaker 3: My god, her first words will probably be.
Speaker 1: Fuck yeah, don't say that, don't say that, or gunt no,
Speaker 1: gunt no.
Speaker 3: I mean, Sophia swears. And it's so funny when kids.
Speaker 1: As Austin call one of his toys a gunt. I've
Speaker 1: got a video of him going, this is my gunt.
Speaker 1: I'm like, what it's a gunt.
Speaker 3: I love that word.
Speaker 1: That's such a good word. Alright and fat so all.
Speaker 4: Right, so fats so signing off, you can fill all right, laders.
Speaker 4: So it's Thursday, Tomorrow, Friday, you know, just hanging out
Speaker 4: having a baby and stuff.
Speaker 3: See Saturday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So what we're actually gonna do is we have
Speaker 2: recorded one episode that we're going to play next week.
Speaker 2: That's a doozy while Lauren is still recovering, and then
Speaker 2: we're fresh episodes and stick around because we are going
Speaker 2: to do an extra episode on your birth.
