Speaker 1: bitches that absolutely hate each other. And then she tagged
Speaker 1: us and said, all right, hey, Britneys is going to
Speaker 1: need you to have that fight.
Speaker 2: What can we find about?
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I feel like we don't always
Speaker 1: agree on everything. I would say we disagree more than agree.
Speaker 2: Yeah, actually that's probably true. I guess we don't disagree
Speaker 2: like I have a fight about it. Yeah, we just
Speaker 2: we both have different opinions and go all right.
Speaker 1: Then next, we actually have a special guest in the
Speaker 1: studio with us today, but we're going to withhold that
Speaker 1: guest because it's for close friends, right, Yeah, and it's
Speaker 1: my Nan. She is sitting in the studio right now listening.
Speaker 2: Into this conversation. She's looking absolutely.
Speaker 1: Beautiful in her green CARDI it's a.
Speaker 2: Very exciting day. It is Britney's Nan, because she just
Speaker 2: went in a tunnel for the first time.
Speaker 1: Yes, I gave her my phone when we were going
Speaker 1: through the tunnel and just like got her to record
Speaker 1: her face and talk and so are we putting that
Speaker 1: up somewhere, But yeah, NaN's been in the tunnel, in
Speaker 1: a tunnel lane cove, to be precise. And I took
Speaker 1: her to seven to eleven to meet George. At seven
Speaker 1: we're runga. I always forget nice.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: I've taken Aj to meet him too.
Speaker 2: Everyone Poor George, I'm thinking, poor George.
Speaker 1: George said that Nana and I have the same eyes
Speaker 1: but different color. Oh nice, Yeah, cute observation.
Speaker 2: Gorgeous. I'm like, honestly, you know, I've been in my
Speaker 2: clubbing era lately, Yeah. I went out on the weekend,
Speaker 2: which is why I'm a little bit rusty at the moment.
Speaker 2: After my show on Friday night, we had a big weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right'd you go? Where'd you go?
Speaker 2: I went to ask they had like a Lady Gaga
Speaker 2: club night. Anyway. You know, I've been in my clubbing
Speaker 2: era for a while. It might be over the thirties.
Speaker 2: They're coming up thick and fast. I have never felt
Speaker 2: so geriatric in my life. Sorry, Honor, I know you're
Speaker 2: in the building today, but I'm feeling very old at
Speaker 2: the moment. I'm turning thirty this year and everything feels
Speaker 2: like it's falling past. I've got bruises on me that
Speaker 2: can I actually show you the bruce that I've got.
Speaker 2: Look at this bruce on my knee. I'll stand up
Speaker 2: for you.
Speaker 1: Can you see that the big pink thing? Why is
Speaker 1: it pink?
Speaker 2: Because it's bright, bloody red and bulbous and I don't
Speaker 2: your knees on a dance. I have no clue. And
Speaker 2: I've got bruises all up the side of my hips.
Speaker 2: I've got it on my bum my. Bum has never
Speaker 2: been so sore. I don't know. Britney I've woken up
Speaker 2: and I am I'm a shell of a human being today.
Speaker 2: The club, sorry, the club.
Speaker 1: I can't even handle you right now.
Speaker 2: I don't think any building can at this point.
Speaker 1: I honestly, any building.
Speaker 2: Na Nah, check the foundations honestly because I can't. So
Speaker 2: my clubbing year I just wanted to put it out there.
Speaker 2: I feel is officially over, but I feel like.
Speaker 1: We still need to have a clubbing night one time.
Speaker 2: Well, you know I have tried to coerce you a
Speaker 2: few times. Oh my gosh. Well, let's talk about last week.
Speaker 1: Actually this kind of rolls into my real flush. Kick
Speaker 1: off the royal Flushes. Then we'll get onto our story
Speaker 1: for Tuesday night.
Speaker 2: Sounds good, but I'm just gonna I'm gonna let you know,
Speaker 2: just bear with me today because I'm broken and I feel.
Speaker 1: You're feeling old, even though my eighty five year old.
Speaker 2: Nan is exactly exactly.
Speaker 1: Sorry Nan, Okay, Well, let's kick it off with our
Speaker 1: royal flushes. You all know what our royal flush is.
Speaker 1: It's the best thing that we've seen on the internet
Speaker 1: this week, or just the best thing in general. I'm
Speaker 1: breaking the rules a little bit today because mine isn't
Speaker 1: the best thing I saw on the internet, but I
Speaker 1: did make a video out of it, so therefore I
Speaker 1: feel like this can be a royal flush. Matt and
Speaker 1: I had to come down to Sydney on Tuesday after
Speaker 1: the long weekend because we're doing this really cool photo
Speaker 1: shoot for Nova, which would be sure to share the photos.
Speaker 1: I saw a sneak peak the day after and they
Speaker 1: looked freakin' awesome. We went to this laundromat. We didn't
Speaker 1: really know what was going on, but it was great.
Speaker 2: We thought though that we were going to a laundromat
Speaker 2: that would be like closed down for the for this
Speaker 2: for the purpose of us doing the photo.
Speaker 1: Sho It was like booked out.
Speaker 2: No, we're taking photos and people are literally doing their
Speaker 2: washing around us speaking I'm in a dress and heels
Speaker 2: and feathers and oh my god.
Speaker 1: But what surprised me was how much the people didn't
Speaker 1: care at all that we were in there. Like there
Speaker 1: was like five or six of us and it's a
Speaker 1: tiny little laundromat on the side of the street, like
Speaker 1: it's not a huge thing. They're just shoving their undies
Speaker 1: in while we're posing next to them.
Speaker 2: And obviously like when they would walk in, we'd hop
Speaker 2: out of the way. And yes, they were a proper customer,
Speaker 2: you know, but I thought we'd have like, you know,
Speaker 2: special access or like you know, we closed off probably laundromat.
Speaker 1: But it's gonna look amazing because I saw the photos. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I came down to Sydney for Tuesday, and then I
Speaker 1: was coming back here on Wednesday, so staying the night
Speaker 1: in Sydney because you all know I hate doing two
Speaker 1: Sydney trips in one week. So I had April with
Speaker 1: me and we went to our Westfield Miranda store first,
Speaker 1: came and did the shoot with Matt, and then I
Speaker 1: was feeling a little yolo and and I was staying
Speaker 1: for the night, and then I said, you know what, April,
Speaker 1: I'm just going to book us a room at the Crown,
Speaker 1: like the fancy hotel in Sydney. Oh, we can't see
Speaker 1: it from here, but it's really nice. I don't know
Speaker 1: how new it is. Whatever. Book the most basic room
Speaker 1: there because they're really expensive. And I said, let's go
Speaker 1: out for dinner at No Boot because No Boo is
Speaker 1: in the Crown. So I booked that and then we
Speaker 1: did our shoot with Matt, and then I said to Matt,
Speaker 1: come out for dinner with us because we're going to
Speaker 1: No Boo and Matt's like, all right, all right, anyway,
Speaker 1: this is my Royal Flush. April and I are driving
Speaker 1: to the Crown and I said, I'm going to be
Speaker 1: really nice at the check in. I'm going to be
Speaker 1: really nice at the reception, because you know how they
Speaker 1: say if you're like really nice, you might get an
Speaker 1: upgrade or whatever. Just thinking like that's not going to happen.
Speaker 1: We get there anyway, we got upgraded to the suite
Speaker 1: at the Crown, which is like nothing I've ever seen before.
Speaker 1: The guy from the reception walked us into the hallway
Speaker 1: where the elevators are to go to the regular rooms,
Speaker 1: but we went beyond that and there was these massive
Speaker 1: double doors. He tapped a card and it opened and
Speaker 1: it was like a private lift that only goes to
Speaker 1: the suites. So he took us up. He took us through.
Speaker 1: I can't even explain the room. It was just like
Speaker 1: nothing I've ever seen. So we got the upgrade and
Speaker 1: that's my Royal Flush. And then I'm messaging Matt saying,
Speaker 1: get the fuck you need to come and see.
Speaker 2: This, and I'm going, how good? Because this could the
Speaker 2: sweet be Let me tell you I have like a
Speaker 2: pretty good sized apartment that I live in. This was
Speaker 2: probably four times the size of.
Speaker 1: Myment and it's a one bedroom suite.
Speaker 2: The bedroom itself was as big as my apartment. But
Speaker 2: you stayed at my apartment, don't That bedroom was just
Speaker 2: as big.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, it was like I felt like, this is what
Speaker 1: it's like to be a card ash in, Like they
Speaker 1: would stay in that shit like it's nothing. April and
Speaker 1: I were jumping up and down as soon as the
Speaker 1: guy walked out the room, like screaming. April I had
Speaker 1: tears rolling down her eye.
Speaker 2: April was private, what about you going? I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: before we go to dinner, I've got to do a
Speaker 2: wee and you were like, no, sit down to weak
Speaker 2: because you need to feel how hot the toilet seed is.
Speaker 1: It was one of those heated ones. You walk in,
Speaker 1: the lid goes up and then it played some like
Speaker 1: water sounds, so it's not quite in there. The seat
Speaker 1: is heated. If you want to take the toilet seat up,
Speaker 1: you just press a button so that you know you
Speaker 1: don't have to touch the toilet seat it's got a bidet.
Speaker 1: It's fucking amazing. And if I made straight away, I
Speaker 1: made a TikTok and I made it reel, so if
Speaker 1: you haven't seen it already, it's on my pages. So
Speaker 1: I did make some content out of it, of course,
Speaker 1: and maybe that was their whole intention. Maybe they saw
Speaker 1: my name because then people were commenting like, people saw
Speaker 1: your name and that's why you got the upgrade.
Speaker 2: But I think for me, no, I think Crown would
Speaker 2: have people who are literally employed.
Speaker 1: To scour the names of Yes.
Speaker 2: When you go to get a book and come through
Speaker 2: and either that person has just recognized your name or
Speaker 2: they've tied Britney Saunders into Google and all your stuff
Speaker 2: has come up. Like that's literally I.
Speaker 1: Feel like I need to email them and be like,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for the upgrade. I was upgraded
Speaker 1: to the suite. I will be back soon.
Speaker 2: I had some content here if you'd like to see.
Speaker 1: Would you link them to it?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah I would, Yeah I would.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to do that because now I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't think I can never stay in any other hotel,
Speaker 1: but I think that room's like three or four thousand
Speaker 1: dollars for one night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the problem. See, I flew business class
Speaker 2: once and I never stopped. Yeah, and it's really bad.
Speaker 2: It's really bad. Oh, but I just love that I
Speaker 2: sat down to we on the toilet, which was very warm,
Speaker 2: and you were just you were peering through the glass
Speaker 2: looking at me. Was trying to get my reaction.
Speaker 1: The ribs had like this one way glass kind of situation,
Speaker 1: like I could.
Speaker 2: See Brittany, but she couldn't see in unless she put
Speaker 2: her eyes right up to the glass. I'm just trying
Speaker 2: to pee in peace, and she's like, how is it,
Speaker 2: you know, looking through the glass. Yeah, that's my royal.
Speaker 1: Flush getting upgraded. And then you joined us for dinner,
Speaker 1: which was awesome.
Speaker 2: Which my Royal flush kind of has to do with dinner.
Speaker 2: But like, how funny about Noboo that I got those
Speaker 2: little tacos, made a video and now everyone it's gone.
Speaker 2: It went crazy, Yeah, on both reels and TikTok, because
Speaker 2: sometimes like a video will do really well on reels
Speaker 2: and then you put on TikTok and it just doesn't work,
Speaker 2: and then vice versa. Something goes really well on TikTok
Speaker 2: and then you put it on reels and it doesn't
Speaker 2: work there, so but they went off on both and
Speaker 2: it's just so funny. I don't know how much those
Speaker 2: tacos were like sixteen dollars or something, and.
Speaker 1: They were like the size of your pointer finger.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like it's small, but I will say, can I
Speaker 2: can I say that. I just don't think Nobu was
Speaker 2: all that and more for the hike, just like didn't.
Speaker 1: Live like once or twice. Yeah, but I don't think
Speaker 1: it's like amazing.
Speaker 2: I'm glad I've been. It was really fun and thank
Speaker 2: you for taking me. It was Britney showed everyone. Brittany
Speaker 2: decided at the end of the night to go, ah,
Speaker 2: don't worry, I've got it, and I went, well, thank god,
Speaker 2: because I just paid sixteen dollars for a fucking corn
Speaker 2: chip taco. I would have got another twelve if I
Speaker 2: knew she shouting anyway, I was like, I'm very grateful
Speaker 2: to you for taking me, but also I'm like, I've
Speaker 2: done it once. That's probably enough. I just to anyone
Speaker 2: who's like, oh my god, I'd love to go to
Speaker 2: No Boo, let me tell you you're not missing March.
Speaker 2: Like the food is good. I think the food was
Speaker 2: It was delicious. It was young, but it wasn't life changing.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I can't I can't think of
Speaker 2: one thing that I'm like, Oh, it was so good,
Speaker 2: I go back here.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, the cocktails were fantastic.
Speaker 1: French Martinis there amazing.
Speaker 2: But the food, I mean, the crispy rice with the
Speaker 2: tuna tartar or whatever it.
Speaker 1: Was, that was nice.
Speaker 2: That was really Yuma. But I'm not liking Unna. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So just wanted to let you all know that no boots,
Speaker 2: just in.
Speaker 1: Case any of you were wondering. I don't know, so
Speaker 1: then mind you this is Tuesday that we went right
Speaker 1: then Matt came back up to the suite. We had
Speaker 1: a little look around that was all well and good,
Speaker 1: and then because we'd had two or three cocktails at dinner,
Speaker 1: we wanted to keep the party going. But it's Tuesday
Speaker 1: night after the long weekend, so like it's the worst
Speaker 1: night possible. But we just said, stuff it.
Speaker 2: Well, this is my this is my thing. This is
Speaker 2: where I'm embarrassed. Okay. I did warn the girls. I
Speaker 2: did one. I did warn them. I said, April, Brittany,
Speaker 2: I let you know, it's Tuesday, after the long weekend.
Speaker 2: It's a Tuesday night, that's already a quiet night anyway,
Speaker 2: but it's just been the long weekend. Everyone would have
Speaker 2: gone out, blown their budget, had fun this weekend. So
Speaker 2: I don't imagine that Oxford Street, which for anyone who
Speaker 2: doesn't know, is like the gay street in Sydney where
Speaker 2: all the gay clubs are. I was like, there's not
Speaker 2: gonna be any other clubs open tonight. And it was
Speaker 2: already like nine thirty. And I'm like, unless you're on
Speaker 2: Oxford Street in Sydney, there's no bars or pubs, so
Speaker 2: everything shut at eight thirty. These days, last drinks at
Speaker 2: eight fifteen, you know. So I was like, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: warn you it's probably not going to be great. But yeah,
Speaker 2: we went the road. We started at Stonewall.
Speaker 1: We went into the people in the there was four
Speaker 1: people in there. Matt tried to go into one other
Speaker 1: area and they're like that's shut.
Speaker 2: No, this man, this fan was like, yeah, that bit's
Speaker 2: not open because that's why the doors shut. And I
Speaker 2: sat and I literally he gave me so much sas
Speaker 2: I said, Well, the sign on the fucking door says
Speaker 2: opens at seven pm, and it's eight thirty. So I
Speaker 2: would have assumed the door was open to go through.
Speaker 1: We sat there. There was honestly like three people in there,
Speaker 1: and April bless her, like it's our work night. But
Speaker 1: she's in Sydney like absolutely laughing up. She's like, let's
Speaker 1: get shots. It's Tuesday, not and that's like, I'm not
Speaker 1: doing a shot. And then I'm like, fine, April, I'll
Speaker 1: do a shot. So then she made me do a
Speaker 1: friggin wet pussy shot. Man's face right now, it's just
Speaker 1: like a sweet shot. Now, yeah, it's not actually sexual.
Speaker 1: She knew, Yeah, she knew. So I've done a wet
Speaker 1: pussy shot on a Tuesday night at eight and something
Speaker 1: at this bar with no one in it.
Speaker 2: Which I've not done a wet pussy shot since i
Speaker 2: was like twenty. Yuck.
Speaker 1: I hate shots in general, Like I'm not that person
Speaker 1: that will do a shot.
Speaker 2: No. I used to be absolute king at a shot.
Speaker 2: I could do four shot and the real heart smirn
Speaker 2: off too.
Speaker 1: I just can't burning down the throat like for what,
Speaker 1: not good for you? No, Nana said, not.
Speaker 2: Good for you, And so then you had the shot
Speaker 2: and then I went, well we better go. So they've
Speaker 2: just both had a shot and we left and we
Speaker 2: walked down the street to Universal. No one was there either,
Speaker 2: but we went to dinner so early that don't forget.
Speaker 2: This is like what eight thirty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it probably got a bit busier later on.
Speaker 1: I reckon then you went home.
Speaker 2: I was like, girls, I'm done. You girls have had
Speaker 2: the shots. You go have fun.
Speaker 1: We just went to that bar. What is it Hidden
Speaker 1: Shady Pine? Shady Pines? Which is this like secret bar
Speaker 1: in Surrey Hill? Is that where we were?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 1: It's really cool?
Speaker 2: It wasn't cool. Yeah, I just had not to go.
Speaker 1: It was maybe like ten people there. We just had
Speaker 1: at the bar and drank and ate some whatever those
Speaker 1: nuts are that they have at the bar. Peanuts, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they're in like the actual shell thing. Yeah, nice,
Speaker 1: just normal peanuts.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then we're asleep by midnight. So it wasn't too bad.
Speaker 1: April felt a bit rough the next day and I'm like,
Speaker 1: who are you going to call in sick? You're with
Speaker 1: the boss. Yeah, but she was fine, and then we
Speaker 1: came here and then I forced her to get on
Speaker 1: my podcast.
Speaker 2: Also, April got the good end of the deal, didn't.
Speaker 1: She She really did. She's she's lucked out.
Speaker 2: Yeah wow, well yeah, employees will be absolutely fum And anyway,
Speaker 2: where were we going with this? We've gone off on twenty.
Speaker 1: Tangents, but we were talking about clubbing.
Speaker 2: No, my rol flush, Yeah, what's your rule? My royal flush?
Speaker 2: So my rel flush is just something that I saw
Speaker 2: that It really has nothing to do with, you know,
Speaker 2: trending on the internet. It's more so that I could
Speaker 2: just continue this conversation, but I saw this. It was
Speaker 2: a TikTok of like a group of friends sharing a
Speaker 2: sticky date pudding, and it was like something on the
Speaker 2: text said something on the lines of doesn't matter where
Speaker 2: or when, I'll always choose the sticky date pudding for dessert.
Speaker 2: And that's again, it's valid. I have a rule in
Speaker 2: my life, which the only reason that's my Royal flush
Speaker 2: is because I wanted to talk about myself. But I
Speaker 2: have a rule in my life. I never get dessert
Speaker 2: at a restaurant. Never get dessert. I just don't get dessert.
Speaker 2: Why never order dessert, doesn't matter how full or not
Speaker 2: fool I am. I am not a dessert person at
Speaker 2: a restaurant. I just it's always been my thing. Unless
Speaker 2: there's a sticky Date on the menu. If there's a
Speaker 2: sticky Date putting on the menu, I must get dessert,
Speaker 2: no matter how fool I am, no matter if the
Speaker 2: main meal has made me feel sick and I couldn't
Speaker 2: eat another thing. I don't know. I've got gang green something.
Speaker 2: It's I could be on my deathbed if the restaurant,
Speaker 2: if the hospital has a sticky Date putting on the menu,
Speaker 2: and they're like, you can't eat any solids liquids only
Speaker 2: because you're going into serch or so, I don't care.
Speaker 2: I'm having the sticky Date. Blend it, put it in
Speaker 2: the neutral bullet, blended up. I'm drinking the Cicky Day creamy.
Speaker 1: Justice for Sticky Date puddings because I had one last night.
Speaker 1: They are the best, and anyone that goes I don't
Speaker 1: like Sticky Day? How do you not like a Sticky
Speaker 1: Day pudding with the cold ice cream and then the
Speaker 1: hot sticky Day with the sauce yum? If you hate
Speaker 1: Sticky Day, you're not my friend.
Speaker 2: No, I don't know how you could. It's one of
Speaker 2: those things that's like very much like, how could you
Speaker 2: not enjoy a Sticky Day?
Speaker 1: And do you like sticky day pudding. Yeah she does.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I knew it, so I will never get dessert.
Speaker 2: I don't care what's on that, and I've gotten it
Speaker 2: because I'm more of I think I'm more of a
Speaker 2: savory person. I love savory. I'd rather have like a
Speaker 2: real good snit snitty at the pub than like a
Speaker 2: slice of mudcake or a I hate term. Assume I
Speaker 2: can't coffee. I can't do you know, but a sticky
Speaker 2: day I'll pause or I don't care. If we've got plans,
Speaker 2: we need to wait until I've eaten that sticky date.
Speaker 2: I don't care what what is happening in your world.
Speaker 2: In my world, the most important thing to me is
Speaker 2: trying that sticky date pudding.
Speaker 1: You can get sticky date dessert at Hungry Jack's at
Speaker 1: the moment.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, that's been the three years mane. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was getting those in high school.
Speaker 1: They're like three dollars fifty and it comes with ice
Speaker 1: cream on top in a little cap. It's perfect.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what they used to be, like
Speaker 2: a dollar fifty really lation But that's all right, it's work.
Speaker 1: You need to go.
Speaker 2: I will say sorry, I will say just for everyone.
Speaker 2: We don't want to hype you into a foot false
Speaker 2: sense of security there. They're not the best sticky dates
Speaker 2: in the world of hungry Jacks.
Speaker 1: They are hungry jack sticky date.
Speaker 2: They are just to substitute to an actual because you know,
Speaker 2: when you go to the restaurant, you've got the sticky date,
Speaker 2: couple nuts on top of that, galaze the ice cream.
Speaker 2: I once had a sticky date that also the ice
Speaker 2: cream was then deep fried ice cream just took it
Speaker 2: to that next level.
Speaker 1: You know, watering thing about that.
Speaker 2: Honestly, I'm getting on the delivery apps and I'm literally
Speaker 2: licking my lips over here. I need to get on
Speaker 2: the delivery apps and get us some sticky days.
Speaker 1: And if anyone out there hasn't tried a sticky date,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? But you have to have it
Speaker 1: with ice cream and it has to be hot and cold.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hot and cold, hot and gold. Ye I'm salivating
Speaker 2: over here. Sorry, Well give it a resten.
Speaker 1: I feel like so far in this episode, Matt, all
Speaker 1: we've done is de influence and influence people need to
Speaker 1: try a sticky date. People don't really need to go
Speaker 1: to Nobu.
Speaker 2: Or fly business class. Don't start that because you won't stop.
Speaker 1: I've also seen people on TikTok recently and Instagram as well,
Speaker 1: like being d influencers. Have you seen that?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I like it, but I think it's like a
Speaker 2: weird kind of territory to be in because everyone has
Speaker 2: like a different opinion on everything, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: And I think when you critically think about because what
Speaker 2: is de influencing, it's people getting a product and saying, hey,
Speaker 2: you may have seen you know, people talking about how
Speaker 2: good this is. Well I got it, and here's all
Speaker 2: the problems that I have with it. And my thing
Speaker 2: is like, that's going to happen with every product, no
Speaker 2: matter what, and people are gonna have great experiences with
Speaker 2: that product and share about it. And if you didn't,
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that I've people are lying. It just
Speaker 2: means that you haven't had the best experience with that product.
Speaker 2: There could be a range of reasons why. I know that.
Speaker 2: For me, I are really heavily not even sponsored or anything.
Speaker 2: Just like out of my own accord talked about this
Speaker 2: amazing hydrating primer and then I raved and raved and
Speaker 2: raved about it, and then people bought it and they
Speaker 2: said it made me really, really oily and I was like,
Speaker 2: but what kind of skin do you have? And they
Speaker 2: were like oily skin, and I was like, it's a
Speaker 2: hydrating primer, you know what I mean? Like, no one's
Speaker 2: I have dry skin.
Speaker 1: No one's ever gonna love the same product.
Speaker 2: No ever.
Speaker 1: You'd have a bloody good business if you could make
Speaker 1: something that everyone's gonna love. But that's impossible.
Speaker 2: But also I'm all about deinfluencing. What would you deinfluence
Speaker 2: people from buying.
Speaker 1: The dice in air rap?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, go for your life. I want to hear
Speaker 2: all about this.
Speaker 1: Okay, love Dyson in general, but it just it's a
Speaker 1: it's a hair dryer, like it's I've got one, like
Speaker 1: I bought one. I even went to an event in
Speaker 1: New York when they first launched it, and I was
Speaker 1: invited by a Dyson. So I'm probably gonna get in
Speaker 1: a lot of trouble for saying this, but not really.
Speaker 1: It's just a hair dryer and it's like seven hundred
Speaker 1: dollars or whatever it is, And like the whole thing
Speaker 1: is like the technology. It doesn't have as much heat
Speaker 1: as like a hair curler or a hair straightener, but
Speaker 1: it still has heat. But then if you do curl
Speaker 1: your hair with it, like it just goes straight within
Speaker 1: like a little bit because you haven't used, you know,
Speaker 1: that really strong heat to get the curls. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just a glorified hair dryer.
Speaker 2: Well there you go. Yeah, I ever had a rap,
Speaker 2: but I'm deinfluenced.
Speaker 1: But like as you said, like I don't like the
Speaker 1: dice in air wrap, like I still use it. I
Speaker 1: use it to dry my hair because it has like
Speaker 1: a brush, so I just brush it through my wet
Speaker 1: hair and it goes dry. So that's great, But like
Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be seven hundred dollars to dry
Speaker 1: your hair. But in saying that I don't like it,
Speaker 1: it doesn't work for me. I don't think it's amazing.
Speaker 1: I'd much rather just use a hair dryer, a hair straightener,
Speaker 1: and hair curler. But then someone else could absolutely love
Speaker 1: it and it could work really well for them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's just my de influence. What's yours, Matt.
Speaker 2: We'll see. My thing is though, like I wouldn't care
Speaker 2: enough I guess to jump on the internet and make
Speaker 2: a de influencing video. No neither about the dice and
Speaker 2: air app If I felt that way, you know, but
Speaker 2: if I loved a product, I would jump on the
Speaker 2: internet and tell everyone. Yeah, so do you know what
Speaker 2: I mean? Like, that's the interesting thing.
Speaker 1: About de influencing. Yeah, people are so quick to jump
Speaker 1: on and be negative. Yeah, but I guess that's what
Speaker 1: gets the comments and the clicks.
Speaker 2: Yea true?
Speaker 1: What would you de influence everyone?
Speaker 2: I don't know what I de influence everyone from buying
Speaker 2: At the moment. I think those road phone cases that
Speaker 2: hold your lip gloss, I think they're stupid. I haven't
Speaker 2: I haven't got one, I don't even use.
Speaker 1: My question is why doesn't she ship to Australia? Like
Speaker 1: it makes no fucking sense. They don't, Like, I don't
Speaker 1: get it. They have the facilities to ship worldwide, but
Speaker 1: they don't ship to Australia.
Speaker 2: Why. Yeah, But then again, I guess it's just a
Speaker 2: cash grap and we love a cash grap, don't we,
Speaker 2: So we do go on you for doing it. But
Speaker 2: I'm just like, I don't need a phone case that
Speaker 2: holds my lip gloss girl either. You know. You know
Speaker 2: what I'm sick of saying on TikTok is all the
Speaker 2: MC beauty videos.
Speaker 1: Do you know MC beauty is Model Co.
Speaker 2: Do you remember the old Model Co?
Speaker 1: Do you remember Model Co? Like David Jones and stuff
Speaker 1: in the hoppink packaging? M CO is Model Co? Just rebranded,
Speaker 1: same owner everything. Did you not know that? No, it's
Speaker 1: Model Co. They've been around forever.
Speaker 2: Member.
Speaker 1: I used to buy their fake tan when I was
Speaker 1: in like year eight, and it was like forty dollars
Speaker 1: and it was like the expensive tam I really liked it.
Speaker 1: It is Model Co rebranded.
Speaker 2: Well anyway, I'm sick of it. Why, I'm just okay, Like,
Speaker 2: I'm just someone who like I can't stand I can't
Speaker 2: stand a copy I can't stand a copy cat. I
Speaker 2: can stand a dupe. If you make one product and
Speaker 2: it's similar and the other person makes a product that
Speaker 2: is just as good, that, in my mind, is a dupe.
Speaker 2: When you are just blatantly copying the product, I go, oh,
Speaker 2: I don't know if I can get behind this, because
Speaker 2: you're just ripping someone else, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by how they managed to get away with it.
Speaker 1: They would have to have some really good lawyers that
Speaker 1: they're making it so similar but just different enough that
Speaker 1: they're not getting in trouble for it, and I'm the
Speaker 1: same as you, Like I'm kind of like, shame on you,
Speaker 1: But at the same time, the business owner in me
Speaker 1: is like, fucking good on you. Like they are making
Speaker 1: absolute bank by knocking off other people's products. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't imagine the lawsuits there would be.
Speaker 2: I'm in two minds because I'm like, one, you're a
Speaker 2: copy cat, but two a lot cheaper And what am
Speaker 2: I going to spend my money on? Well, obviously the
Speaker 2: cheap option, but then you know a lot of people
Speaker 2: are saying that it's really similar in quality as well.
Speaker 1: I wonder know, like how do they get away? They're
Speaker 1: doing it so fast, Like I feel like brands come
Speaker 1: out with this product and then boom, like a month later, ModelCo, Moco,
Speaker 1: m Co has has come out with their own version.
Speaker 1: Like how they're doing it so quickly?
Speaker 2: When it launched in America, Bethany Frankel, who's one of
Speaker 2: the older Real Housewives I saw New York City, She goes,
Speaker 2: I just got all of this Mica mcco beauty. Mcco beauty,
Speaker 2: that's so funny. Maco. Imagine sending beany pr and she
Speaker 2: pronounces the name Wrongcau Maco Maco Beauty is from Australia.
Speaker 1: They're everywhere in the US.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I mean, good on her, like that is a huge business,
Speaker 1: but I just always think it is a bit weird.
Speaker 1: Like I get it's all about accessibility and making it
Speaker 1: more affordable for everyone by knocking off all these other products,
Speaker 1: but how does she get away with that? And it's
Speaker 1: publicly accepted by everyone that they literally make copies of
Speaker 1: other products. But then if I was to make something
Speaker 1: that another brand make, yeah, just people with say fake copied, Yeah,
Speaker 1: White Fox boutique. Like in fashion, like if you make
Speaker 1: something that someone else has made something similar to, you'll
Speaker 1: get canceled for it. Yeah, but they can make literal
Speaker 1: duplicates almost.
Speaker 2: The whole brand can be that as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole brand.
Speaker 2: You could put up one product that's the same as
Speaker 2: you know, a different brand, and suddenly everyone will come
Speaker 2: for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The thing that gets me as well is not
Speaker 1: only is the formula so similar, which fair enough if
Speaker 1: you're making a similar formula to another brand, but it's
Speaker 1: the whole packaging.
Speaker 2: Yes, and like a drunk elephant rip off looks just like.
Speaker 1: The Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks, like the Rose Goald with the
Speaker 1: lines in it, and then it just makes me think
Speaker 1: like m Comco doesn't have their own brand identity because
Speaker 1: you know how, if you look at Charlotte Tilbury packaging,
Speaker 1: you will see that it's Charlotte Tilbury. If you look
Speaker 1: at Sol de Janeiro, you'll recognize it, whereas MC beauty
Speaker 1: doesn't have their own identity, Like if you're looking at
Speaker 1: their products, it just looks like everyone else's. I'm just interested,
Speaker 1: like where that is going to go in the long term,
Speaker 1: Like clearly they're killing it right now. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: love to interview her.
Speaker 2: I don't think business.
Speaker 1: I don't think she would.
Speaker 2: You don't think she would.
Speaker 1: Well, they'd have to be so careful, like all of
Speaker 1: the m CO employees, like the girls that run the
Speaker 1: social media or whatever. They have to be so careful
Speaker 1: because they cannot say that it's like a dupe or
Speaker 1: similar to like anything that they write could get them
Speaker 1: sued like that to be so careful with their wording.
Speaker 1: We've actually got a statement here. She didn't give it
Speaker 1: to us. We found it on the internet. She's said,
Speaker 1: this is on a Mama Mia. What's this thing called article?
Speaker 1: That's what I'm looking for when we get inspired to
Speaker 1: create a product, be it any other product that looks
Speaker 1: like a competitor. We put everything through quite a rigorous
Speaker 1: trademark and IP protection process, she says. We consult trademark
Speaker 1: and intellectual property attorneys. Whatever I take to market is kosher.
Speaker 1: We do all the complete checks they would have to.
Speaker 1: My prediction is, as much as I love to see
Speaker 1: like Aussie business absolutely killing it, like I'm like, you're
Speaker 1: a fucking genius to be able to build a business
Speaker 1: like this and get away with it, I reckon one
Speaker 1: day something's gonna happen and it's gonna unravel, like I
Speaker 1: reckon they're going to get in a lot of trouble.
Speaker 1: That's my prediction. Allegedly and not quite, but I reckon
Speaker 1: that's gonna happen. I reckon something's gonna stuff up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And that's what I would be scared of before I
Speaker 1: was her, if they're going to just cross that line
Speaker 1: a little too much.
Speaker 2: And I will say, like, the only reason I'm so
Speaker 2: sick of it and sick of hearing about it is
Speaker 2: because it feels like it's the only makeup brand I
Speaker 2: see on my TikTok. I feel like it's taken over
Speaker 2: on TikTok. I don't see any other makeup brands as
Speaker 2: in my face as MC beauty, And that's like the
Speaker 2: only reason that I'm like, I'm sick of saying it,
Speaker 2: because it's all I think I'm seeing. God, I haven't
Speaker 2: heard from other makeup brands that we used to work
Speaker 2: with all the time in years. I never see them
Speaker 2: on my feet. I'll never see anyone.
Speaker 1: Problem m CO has come out with or is coming
Speaker 1: out with their own version of the Benettint. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know that that's Benettint has been around for decades.
Speaker 2: Which is so wild because like, why why do that now?
Speaker 2: It's not like a trending product now. I feel like
Speaker 2: ten years ago.
Speaker 1: And they m coo posted on their TikTok or something
Speaker 1: like a video or whatever of the Benettint knockoff and
Speaker 1: Benefit commented like something really funny, and I was like,
Speaker 1: I love that. Yeah that, Like I can't remember what
Speaker 1: the comment was, something about like they do it better
Speaker 1: or whatever, because you know, Bennettint was originally designed so
Speaker 1: long ago for women to put on their nipples, what, yeah,
Speaker 1: to like make their nipples more pink.
Speaker 2: Really, yes, that's.
Speaker 1: What it was, and now it's this lip and cheek thing,
Speaker 1: but it was originally invented for nipples.
Speaker 2: I love that. I'm gonna have to get my beneitine
Speaker 2: when I get home, put it on my nipples.
Speaker 1: And post a photo on your story doing before and after.
Speaker 2: I'll do TikTok.
Speaker 1: For its original use.
Speaker 2: But I will say I love everything from Benefit except benettint.
Speaker 2: It's my one product that I'm like, no, I can't
Speaker 2: do it. It's just because because it's for lips and cheeks.
Speaker 2: I put it on my lips, I feel like they
Speaker 2: go very dry, and I didn't love that. And then
Speaker 2: the tint itself wasn't a good color for me. But
Speaker 2: everything else from Benefit I love because I got like
Speaker 2: Benefit was scar Benefit was the MC beauty of our time.
Speaker 2: It was when we were when we were you know,
Speaker 2: ten years ago, when we were on the internet and
Speaker 2: also younger. What am I trying to say here, because
Speaker 2: I feel like MC beauty is very like teenager and.
Speaker 1: It is demographic, you know. And I do have a
Speaker 1: few of their products, so I will say, and I
Speaker 1: enjoy using them. M CO.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've used a few and I haven't had anything
Speaker 2: so spectacular, but none of them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, none of them are life changing. I wonder if
Speaker 1: I did like their brow stuff.
Speaker 2: Actually, the MC beauty brow lemonade, you know what do
Speaker 2: you call that brow gel was really really good.
Speaker 1: I've got the Freckle pen, which I like.
Speaker 2: But I wonder not us starting this going deinfluencing m
Speaker 2: cobna and now like, well, actually what we laugh of m.
Speaker 1: CO Beauty is one day it's gonna they're gonna get
Speaker 1: stuck in a situation that will cause them a lot
Speaker 1: of trouble. To be honest, they probably have already dealt
Speaker 1: with that like time and time again, and they just
Speaker 1: like did.
Speaker 2: I'll try and rip off Jeffrey Star or something and
Speaker 2: he'll just go not Today's sister.
Speaker 1: And I would love to see that happen.
Speaker 2: But that's what I imagine.
Speaker 1: I wonder they obviously have their own products as well
Speaker 1: that we don't really know about, But I wonder if
Speaker 1: they'll eventually like start creating more of their own things
Speaker 1: and try and get ahead of the trends because they're
Speaker 1: always jumping on these trendy products after they've launched, Like
Speaker 1: she should use her innovation and ability to create products
Speaker 1: so quickly and come out with her own, like make
Speaker 1: the next soul de Jhanniro Spray, like, be a trend setter,
Speaker 1: don't follow them. That's what that's my bis to Shelley.
Speaker 1: If you're listening, and I know you will be, she
Speaker 1: won't be. Maybe someone that works there will.
Speaker 2: Though. Yeah, I'm also like, so I agree with that obviously,
Speaker 2: But then I'm also like, but she'd make a lot
Speaker 2: more money ripping off the other one instead of trying
Speaker 2: to make her own anyway, So I'm like, if I
Speaker 2: put myself in Shelley's shoes without her name Shelley, Yeah,
Speaker 2: if I put myself in her shoes, I'm gonna do
Speaker 2: what's gonna make me more money as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can appreciate the hustle and the cash grab all.
Speaker 2: I started this segment hating Mco Beauty, but now I'm like,
Speaker 2: h I'm still not in a rush to try and
Speaker 2: if the products, but because I got some that's that
Speaker 2: they actually sent me and I haven't had a goal
Speaker 2: with them yet, but I might have to and then
Speaker 2: in a few weeks I'll let you know, and I
Speaker 2: might influence him all to buy Maco Beauty.
Speaker 1: Well, Matt that's another episode done? And does it that
Speaker 1: went so fast? Did yeah want me?
Speaker 2: I'm over here thinking, bloody hell, I need a valium
Speaker 2: and yeah, I'm ready to go to bed. Honor, but
