Speaker 1: gen z it is.
Speaker 3: But she looks more like in her twenties. There your
Speaker 3: bloody go. Anyway, shout out to Baker's Delight today.
Speaker 2: You see that when it was revealed, you know pop crave.
Speaker 2: No oh, it's like a Twitter account pop Crave. Everyone
Speaker 2: thought it was like a gay man, and then it
Speaker 2: came out one day that it was a It was
Speaker 2: a woman. It was a female, and everyone was like,
Speaker 2: it's not a gay man. That's so crazy. Like the
Speaker 2: tweets are so sassy sometimes. That's what it felt like
Speaker 2: when I saw the face revealed on Baker's Delight. Anyway,
Speaker 2: what were you going to say?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 4: Sorry, I totally went off track there.
Speaker 2: You were going to talk about something.
Speaker 1: Well, we've done with the TikTok Awards. I've had my
Speaker 1: work Christmas party as well. I'm all partied out.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh I'm calling it quits on this year.
Speaker 3: Del I'm all partied out.
Speaker 1: We've had our Christy party. Fucking done for the year.
Speaker 1: Do you have any chrissy party? Do you miss having
Speaker 1: a Christmas pat so influencers, I mean, you get to
Speaker 1: go to so many events all year round anyway, but
Speaker 1: I feel like looking back at when I was an
Speaker 1: influencer full time, like I kind of missed that social
Speaker 1: interaction in that kind of way because I feel like
Speaker 1: we're Christmas parties. I mean, they can be really shit
Speaker 1: if you've got like a shit workplace, but I feel
Speaker 1: like they could be really exciting and fun.
Speaker 2: No, I don't miss Christmas parties, but I feel like
Speaker 2: I unfortunately go to like twenty Christmas parties. That's actually
Speaker 2: probably a downside, you do, yes or for.
Speaker 3: Like all the brands. Yeah yeah, see so like influencers still.
Speaker 2: Get and my management company has a present party it
Speaker 2: yet will they actually combined it this year. I think
Speaker 2: the TikTok Awards after party was also their Christmas party
Speaker 2: at the same time.
Speaker 4: I think they were just.
Speaker 3: Gonna killed two birds. Yeah, perfect love it. Now we
Speaker 3: had our Christmas party.
Speaker 1: Actually, okay, I'll tell you one thing that we had
Speaker 1: at our Christmas party on just the other weekend that
Speaker 1: was the hit of the night. So our workplace has
Speaker 1: gotten really big. So over the years, our Christmas party
Speaker 1: has become like more and more tame kind of thing.
Speaker 1: Like we used to go on the boat parties. Maybe
Speaker 1: you came on those mad, but that was when we
Speaker 1: had like fucking seven employees.
Speaker 3: So we just take everyone to Sydney blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: But now there's so many of us, like we're just
Speaker 1: keeping it in Newcastle. Last year we went and did
Speaker 1: a wine tour at the Huna Valley and then even
Speaker 1: that was like very big and interactive kind of thing.
Speaker 1: So this year, because there's so many of us, we
Speaker 1: just said, we're just booking this venue like a little restaurant.
Speaker 3: Bar kind of thing. We just booked the whole thing
Speaker 3: and it's just.
Speaker 1: Like cannapis and cocktails and like it's just a stand
Speaker 1: around mingling event kind of thing. And because we were
Speaker 1: just being at the one venue and there wasn't that
Speaker 1: much stuff interactively happening, I thought we need something there.
Speaker 1: So we had like our media wall with like a
Speaker 1: photo booth thing that's always a good time.
Speaker 3: Everyone loves that.
Speaker 1: And then we had a there's this local business called
Speaker 1: Ink and Snow and it's a girl that runs it
Speaker 1: named a and she comes.
Speaker 3: You would have seen her at our Fate event as well, Matt.
Speaker 1: She comes and like takes your photo and then does
Speaker 1: like a watercolor artwork of.
Speaker 3: You and your outfit.
Speaker 1: So she was there, which was interactive and fun. But
Speaker 1: then when we were organizing this literally at the start
Speaker 1: of this year, I'm like, we need one other thing,
Speaker 1: like the photo booth, the artist, we need one other thing.
Speaker 1: And originally we floated the idea of having a drag queen.
Speaker 3: There were like, yeah, maybe a drag queen just gone
Speaker 3: around fun performing and then I thought, na, you know what,
Speaker 3: let's go something completely different. Let's get a fucking magician.
Speaker 1: And the girl I didn't know, but I presented that
Speaker 1: idea to the two girls at work that organized the
Speaker 1: Christmas party, and they were like, okay, but I didn't
Speaker 1: know that they thought what the fuck like when they
Speaker 1: didn't tell me until the night of the Christmas party.
Speaker 3: Anyway, So we booked this magician named Matt.
Speaker 1: He came and he was the highlight of the Christmas
Speaker 1: party because he just came with his bag of fucking
Speaker 1: tricks and because there was like forty something of us there,
Speaker 1: like the forty people at the venue, he went around,
Speaker 1: why are you pissing yourself, Hannah.
Speaker 2: With like pigeons.
Speaker 3: It wasn't pigeons, Okay, So he came.
Speaker 1: He came, and he was just like going around because
Speaker 1: everyone was standing and sitting around in little groups. So
Speaker 1: he just go around and do these tricks and he
Speaker 1: literally had people screaming because the tricks were so fucking good.
Speaker 1: And then the two girls from fate that organized a
Speaker 1: Christmas party come up to me at one point like
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh my god, we just wanted to say, Britt,
Speaker 1: we really doubted this magician idea.
Speaker 3: When you told us, we were like, oh, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you should have told me that you thought
Speaker 1: it was not the best idea. But they're like, now
Speaker 1: we take it back. It's been the best fucking idea ever.
Speaker 3: He just did like.
Speaker 1: Card tricks, tricks with little foam things that you know.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you ever seen a magician and
Speaker 1: you like put one foam little bunny in your hand
Speaker 1: and you close it and he does like some magic treat.
Speaker 3: You open it and like ten bunnies pop out.
Speaker 2: Then here getting over. Yah, I've never seen you talk
Speaker 2: so passionately about anything in your life.
Speaker 1: Look, I can highly recommend, if you've got a wedding,
Speaker 1: engagement party, whatever, get a fucking magician.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: Literally, he did like tricks with people's rings, like really
Speaker 1: interactive stuff, and honestly, it was so good.
Speaker 2: Do you have his like business for if you're in newcomer?
Speaker 3: Matt Swift?
Speaker 2: Matt Swift, and he was very swift. Let me tell you.
Speaker 1: He was bent like Claire was holding a spoon and
Speaker 1: it was bending in her hand like just all that
Speaker 1: sort of shit.
Speaker 4: I love, how excited you're getting.
Speaker 1: It was really good, Like I know it sounds cheesy,
Speaker 1: but it was really bloody good nice.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you.
Speaker 1: Also, when I used to work at a hotel back
Speaker 1: in the day, Like I worked in a hotel, but
Speaker 1: in the restaurant in the hotel, we had a Christmas party.
Speaker 1: I would have been nineteen or even eighteen at the
Speaker 1: time that I worked there. They had a really fun
Speaker 1: theme and I'll never forget it. And I just loved it.
Speaker 1: And this is over ten holy over ten years ago.
Speaker 1: Op Shop formal wear theme, really good party theme. If
Speaker 1: you just want to have a fucking dumb costume.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: So you had to go to the op Shop and
Speaker 1: find a really daggy formal dress and I loved it.
Speaker 3: I loved it.
Speaker 4: I do love that idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would recommend that theme. You having a party
Speaker 1: or anything, get a magician.
Speaker 4: Basically, get a magician shot formal.
Speaker 2: We shop formal wear and you're fucking sordered for a
Speaker 2: Christmas party.
Speaker 3: Or a wedding.
Speaker 1: Fuck it. Speaking of weddings, did you see Tammy Hembrow's wedding.
Speaker 2: I didn't see too much of it, but anything interesting happened.
Speaker 1: I just loved that she wore a pink dress dress
Speaker 1: and she's did you see those photos that had just
Speaker 1: come out?
Speaker 2: Oh? Actually I saw the setup and the guests sitting
Speaker 2: on either side of the pool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fucking sleigh.
Speaker 2: Oh it was stunning. I thought the layout was where.
Speaker 3: Was that in Australia? Nearby?
Speaker 1: It looked like it was in like the Mediterranean or something.
Speaker 1: I just love the pink dress.
Speaker 3: I love it. She looked great. Fucking go Glen Coco
Speaker 3: on that as well.
Speaker 1: Like I saw some other comments online of people saying
Speaker 1: they thought it was weird that the guests were like
Speaker 1: quite far down because some person in a helicopter took
Speaker 1: a photo right or with a drone and it looked
Speaker 1: like the guests couldn't see Matt and Tammy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but apparently they If people haven't seen the photo,
Speaker 2: we better explain it. They're like up on like kind
Speaker 2: of like a balcony with then stairs going down to
Speaker 2: the pool to the pool, and then all the guests
Speaker 2: are sitting on either side of the pool, but sideways, like.
Speaker 3: They're facing the pool for each other, each other across
Speaker 3: the pool.
Speaker 2: But then yeah, they are to the right or the left.
Speaker 2: I guess if you're on the outside anyway. Basically you're
Speaker 2: not facing forward to the bride and groom. You'll have
Speaker 2: to turn sideways to look at the bride and groom,
Speaker 2: and also up a few flights of stairs.
Speaker 3: It looked like, yeah, I reckon, it would have been fine.
Speaker 2: I was looking in the flower beds for the speakers
Speaker 2: because I thought they're so far away you wouldn't be
Speaker 2: able to hear on this.
Speaker 3: Maybe we did have speakers.
Speaker 1: I think people need to have microphones and speakers at
Speaker 1: their weddings because if you have the back, you can'tish sheep.
Speaker 2: But also I'm so like, what's what's the word? What's
Speaker 2: the term I'm looking for? I'm so conscious that I
Speaker 2: don't want to rely on too much technology on my
Speaker 2: wedding day, true, because you don't want it to go stuffy,
Speaker 2: crackly or the you know when you bring the you
Speaker 2: bring the microphone, two guys as a speaker, and it's
Speaker 2: like yeah, and everyone goes, oh oh, blocks there is
Speaker 2: cause big fuss done on that on my wedding day.
Speaker 2: Please be upstanding for the Royal flush.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into our Royal Flush of the week,
Speaker 1: which is the best thing we have seen on the internet.
Speaker 3: And do you want to start mad or do you
Speaker 3: want me to.
Speaker 4: I'll let you go first.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'll go first.
Speaker 1: Well, I've actually got an anti royal flush, which haven't
Speaker 1: done in a while.
Speaker 2: And it's about time you have broke the rules again.
Speaker 3: Okay, So as you all know.
Speaker 1: Oh, and I've got an update on my next door
Speaker 1: neighbor by the way.
Speaker 3: Oh, we'll keep it for close friends.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, everyone's been asking we need an update, and
Speaker 1: you're not gonna believe what the update is on my nasty,
Speaker 1: horrible neighbor.
Speaker 3: I reckon, you can say this. You reckon say it.
Speaker 3: Hannah's just saying to me right now, I should say
Speaker 3: it in here.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'll say to quickly catch you up if you
Speaker 1: haven't listened to all of our previous episodes, mainly in
Speaker 1: our close Friends.
Speaker 3: As you all know, AJ and I have been renovating.
Speaker 1: Our house for the last two years, but the major
Speaker 1: rhnaots have happened in the last six months, and during
Speaker 1: that time a feud has started between AJ and one
Speaker 1: of our next door neighbors. One neighbor's super nice, the
Speaker 1: other one we've never even had anything to do with
Speaker 1: until we started making.
Speaker 3: Noise in our reno's. There's been beef.
Speaker 1: They've been saying to AJ, what the fuck, what's with
Speaker 1: all the noise? You think you're above the law. They
Speaker 1: were going to go to the council and try to
Speaker 1: get us to stop doing construction, even though it's council approved. Anyway,
Speaker 1: all this shit has fucking gone down. I've never even
Speaker 1: said hello to this neighbor because they're just death staring
Speaker 1: me over the fence every day. So anyway, it's been
Speaker 1: not very nice. And it got to the point where
Speaker 1: AJ told him to get fucked anyway, You're not gonna
Speaker 1: believe it. So our renovations are done. Now there's a
Speaker 1: couple of little bits and bobs that need to come
Speaker 1: back and do it. It's minor. The other day, AJ
Speaker 1: was mowing our lawn out the front and the neighbor
Speaker 1: came walking over.
Speaker 3: And as.
Speaker 1: The neighbor came over and apologized to AJ, he said,
Speaker 1: I wanted to say I'm so sorry that I don't
Speaker 1: know what his exact words were because I wasn't there,
Speaker 1: but he said something along the lines of like, I'm
Speaker 1: so sorry for being such an asshole over the last
Speaker 1: however many months it's been and I think he shook
Speaker 1: his hand and wanted to say, like, I'm so sorry,
Speaker 1: and AJ was like he was too too stunned to speak,
Speaker 1: and he said, no.
Speaker 3: Worries, mate, like if you ever need anything, let me know,
Speaker 3: and they like made amends.
Speaker 1: What And I'm like, did they hear that? They They're
Speaker 1: not the kind of demographic you know for the pod.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, did someone they know hear the pod?
Speaker 3: Who knows?
Speaker 2: I don't know what? Very straight, Yeah, but I think
Speaker 2: that's nice.
Speaker 1: I think it's it takes a lot to apologize, Like
Speaker 1: no one likes to say that they've been in the wrong.
Speaker 3: So I'm like, good on him.
Speaker 1: A J came inside and told me I'm like fucking
Speaker 1: good on him, and then I invited him over.
Speaker 4: Barbecues.
Speaker 1: Now no barbecues and wines on the back deck. I'm
Speaker 1: still looking for a new neighbor that can do that
Speaker 1: with me. But that's the update on the neighbor.
Speaker 3: Anyway.
Speaker 1: Getting onto my anti royal flush because this kind of
Speaker 1: leads into the house thing. So over the last few months,
Speaker 1: I've been buying little bits and bobs for the house
Speaker 1: just to get it all cute. See, you know, because
Speaker 1: we've put so much effort into making this house look beautiful,
Speaker 1: so I'd just been buying little things to make the
Speaker 1: house nice. Now, one of my favorite rooms in the
Speaker 1: house is our bathroom because it's got this beautiful stone bench,
Speaker 1: and I want the vibe of the bathroom to be
Speaker 1: like a hotel bathroom, like almost like a bathroom that
Speaker 1: it looks like no one uses it, right, So then
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, all right, I don't want my toothbrush to
Speaker 1: be on display, because you know how toothbrushes are fucking ugly,
Speaker 1: Like you know, you've got this stunning bathroom, then you've
Speaker 1: got your fucking Colgate, your bright purple toothbrush right there
Speaker 1: on the bench. So I thought in my mind, because
Speaker 1: we've got like shaving cabinets, so every day I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna put my toothbrush and toothpaste back in the shape
Speaker 1: shaving cabinet. And then I'm like, wait a second, because
Speaker 1: there's nice toothbrushes out there now, like that a sleek
Speaker 1: or like all one color. So I went searching on
Speaker 1: the internet because I'd seen a few ads popping up
Speaker 1: like that Gem brand, Like have you seen that gem
Speaker 1: toothpaste and toothbrush? Anyway, there's a bunch a bunch of
Speaker 1: brands that I've seen that just make like soft pink
Speaker 1: toothbrush or purple or neutral or whatever. So I went
Speaker 1: searching on the internet for aesthetic toothbrushes, okay, and then
Speaker 1: I found this one, and I was like, yep, this
Speaker 1: is it. This toothbrush is so nice that I'm going
Speaker 1: to want to display it on my vanity.
Speaker 3: It was tortoise shell, like you know, tortoises shell Sonny.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like a really nice tortoise shell toothbrush. So I'm like, perfect,
Speaker 1: Like I love a tortoiseshell Sonny tortoise shell toothbrush. It
Speaker 1: looks a million bucks. So I bought this. I've never
Speaker 1: heard of this brand before. I'm pretty sure it came
Speaker 1: from a stockist in Australia, but it's like non an
Speaker 1: Australian brand. I think it cost me like forty dollars,
Speaker 1: which is pretty steep for a toothbrush. But in saying that,
Speaker 1: like electric toothbrush is a bloody like two hundred dollars,
Speaker 1: so it.
Speaker 3: Wasn't that much.
Speaker 1: Okay, And I've got the toothbrush here with me, mat oh, okay,
Speaker 1: I've got I'm giving you a show and tell.
Speaker 2: If you brought it with you to show me, because
Speaker 2: hang on, this is an anti royal flush, so what's
Speaker 2: wrong with it?
Speaker 4: Have I got to figure it out?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, right, let me just dig it out of
Speaker 1: my bag.
Speaker 2: I'm like expecting you to pull out one that's like
Speaker 2: really small.
Speaker 3: Close your eyes. I just want to hode.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to close my eyes. My eyes are closed.
Speaker 3: Okay, I just got to clean it off.
Speaker 2: Okay, clean it off. If you used.
Speaker 3: Okay, you can open your eyes again.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to show you from a distance like
Speaker 1: it's really fucking cool and cute.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, so this is cute, right, you could
Speaker 1: see this on my on my Yeah, this thing is
Speaker 1: harder than a horse's brush.
Speaker 2: This thing, no no, no, no no. I pulled this out
Speaker 2: of the thing.
Speaker 3: And this is stiffer than a fucking horses brush. I
Speaker 3: wouldn't even brush a horse with this.
Speaker 2: Show.
Speaker 3: I've touched this on my tooth.
Speaker 1: And if anyone owns this, okay, the brand is Akka Kappa,
Speaker 1: handmade in Italy.
Speaker 3: I went on there web. I went back on the website.
Speaker 4: I bought it.
Speaker 3: From it says medium firmness.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I'm flying with a medium toothbrush, Maddie, right, yeah.
Speaker 2: I'm just looking just looking up the no.
Speaker 3: No, no no.
Speaker 1: And I went back to go have I bought accidentally
Speaker 1: like a hair brush. No, it's a fucking toothbrush mat
Speaker 1: and this thing, let me do it. If you brushed
Speaker 1: your teeth with this, you would have no gums left.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm going to throw it over to you.
Speaker 3: Feel it.
Speaker 4: That's not real, that's.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 2: That's actually it's like a hair brush.
Speaker 3: That's harder than a hairbrush than that like put on
Speaker 3: your tooth. Please. I haven't used it, clearly, Oh my.
Speaker 4: God, Oh my god. That's literally gonna rip my teeth off.
Speaker 1: And so I'm like what I wanted to email the like,
Speaker 1: and I feel bad because it's not like the brand
Speaker 1: is the.
Speaker 3: What is it? Akka Kappa aka Kappa.
Speaker 1: So the website I bought it off is just like
Speaker 1: a stockist of this. But I was gonna email them
Speaker 1: and say, genuinely, I want to know how I'm supposed
Speaker 1: to brush my teeth. And I tried wetting it, thinking,
Speaker 1: oh I might get softer. Nuh, this thing is harder
Speaker 1: than your hair brush. So I'm just stuck with this
Speaker 1: fucking too.
Speaker 4: You're just gonna put it on display anyway.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess so like it looks nice, but I I
Speaker 1: just I make products for a living myself, right, and
Speaker 1: I would never approve this. This has had to go
Speaker 1: through a lot of approval processes and someone has decided, Yep,
Speaker 1: this is fine for use.
Speaker 3: I'm looking at the reviews. It's all five stars.
Speaker 1: I don't get it, Like this looks like a luxury brand.
Speaker 1: Hannah fucking feel this. It is like I can't even explain.
Speaker 1: It's like something you would scrub your tire with.
Speaker 5: It's like to get grout out of a tile like
Speaker 5: that would it's a grout brush.
Speaker 1: No one is brushing their teeth with that. It feels
Speaker 1: like steel, yeah, like steel wall. And I went back
Speaker 1: to check the website because I didn't read the description
Speaker 1: when I bought it, so I thought, or maybe I've
Speaker 1: purchased one that's like extra firm, but I've even purchased
Speaker 1: the hard like Colgate toothbrushes before, and this comes nowhere
Speaker 1: near close. This is like a steel wool. So that
Speaker 1: is my anti fucking Royal Flush and no shame to
Speaker 1: the business that I bought it from. Think the website
Speaker 1: was like say Son or something, never heard of it.
Speaker 3: No shame to them.
Speaker 1: I love that you're stocking this beautiful brand. The toothbrush
Speaker 1: itself is fucking lovely, but I just have beef with
Speaker 1: whoever decided that this is fine for people to use
Speaker 1: in their mouth on their gums.
Speaker 3: We have to protect our gums.
Speaker 2: And by the way, I'm sitting here in bewilderment at
Speaker 2: how passionate you are about it, and.
Speaker 1: I just want to say, as well, life hack to
Speaker 1: all of you out there. Did you know that the
Speaker 1: only firmness toothbrush you should ever buy is soft? You
Speaker 1: should never buy a medium or firm, even though it
Speaker 1: feels really good to get in there soft. We got
Speaker 1: to look after our teeth and look after our gums.
Speaker 2: Right Jesus Christ? And feel an attacked over here. I
Speaker 2: am Saunders.
Speaker 1: So that's my anti Royal Flush and I don't know
Speaker 1: what I'm supposed to do, and I feel like I
Speaker 1: can't return it because I've.
Speaker 3: Touched it on my teeth. That's touched your teeth.
Speaker 1: Now, does anyone in the scrollers want this.
Speaker 2: Please let me know someone genuinely will want that.
Speaker 1: I might keep it to brush down my fucking baby
Speaker 1: hairs or scrub the grout in my tiles.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my god.
Speaker 3: So anyway, what's your royal flush?
Speaker 1: Mat?
Speaker 4: My royal flush is so random?
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 2: Actually, we spoke about Jojo c while the other day
Speaker 2: and how incredible she was at the TikTok Awards. Had
Speaker 2: a very good time seeing her. I was front row
Speaker 2: for the Karma Dants, et cetera, et cetera, as you
Speaker 2: all know. And and she's released a new song and
Speaker 2: I bloody love it.
Speaker 3: Oh, I haven't heard it yet.
Speaker 2: It's called Iced Coffee and it's very much a rip
Speaker 2: off of Sabrina Carboner's espresso.
Speaker 3: Do you reckon? Sabrini can go after her for that.
Speaker 2: No, it's not like it doesn't rip off the sound,
Speaker 2: but it's the same premise. It's like, I think Sabrina's
Speaker 2: thing is I'm the espresso that keeps you up. And
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I haven't listened to it this morning,
Speaker 2: but I've been listening to it all like all day yesterday.
Speaker 2: I love it, but I think JoJo's is the opposite.
Speaker 2: She saying that you are my iced coffee instead of
Speaker 2: I am your ice.
Speaker 3: People can come out with a song called iced Coffee.
Speaker 4: Anyway, it's such a bop. Go and listen to it
Speaker 4: if you haven't. It's really fun.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to listen to it on the way
Speaker 1: home today on repeat. I know how many ice coffees
Speaker 1: it'll take me to get home.
Speaker 4: How many ice coffee?
Speaker 3: He said? It takes you so many Abba songs.
Speaker 2: To dance queens for dancing queens get to get here?
Speaker 3: Do you want to know who I actually love?
Speaker 1: And I was in a cafe this morning and I
Speaker 1: heard them playing on the on the radio Maroon five?
Speaker 4: What was playing?
Speaker 3: And I wonder where we are? We're now?
Speaker 2: We're on money. I can't get around the new Maroon five.
Speaker 2: But what's that one that's from like two thousand and five?
Speaker 3: She will be loved?
Speaker 2: Maybe she know. I think it's that.
Speaker 1: Way I love. I'm going to listen to Maroon five
Speaker 1: on the way home as well.
Speaker 2: Okay, so a good mixed Maroon five and Jojo Sea.
Speaker 3: Ride back to do people still love them?

Speaker 2: not long ago. All the moms on me Facebook went
Speaker 2: to James Blunt the other night in Sydney.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 4: I didn't realize he was still kicking.
Speaker 3: If Maroon five toured, I would definitely.
Speaker 2: Go really yeah, well I won't be coming with you.
Speaker 2: Can't think of anything worse?
Speaker 3: Okay, who wants to come with me?
Speaker 4: I just don't like their new stuff. I like their
Speaker 4: old stuff.
Speaker 3: I love any of it.
Speaker 2: I think who's other one as well? Who sings they
Speaker 2: paved paradise and put up a parking? Yeah, they're to

Speaker 2: I'm just gonna be honest. I fucking hate that.
Speaker 3: I think that's hilarious hate.
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry scrollers actually fucking hate that.
Speaker 2: What a sensory fucking overload.
Speaker 3: I love it. I love it.
Speaker 2: I know a lot about a lot of our community
Speaker 2: is going to fucking hate that. And every time that plays,
Speaker 2: they're gonna have a sensory over especially if they're in
Speaker 2: the car.
Speaker 4: Is that tires screeching? They're in there and crashing and scrab.
Speaker 3: Who makes it? And how do they make that?
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry to whoever on the teammate that both
Speaker 4: of you.
Speaker 3: Didn't hear it last.
Speaker 4: I don't listen to the episode.
Speaker 2: Do it.
Speaker 3: We can redo it.
Speaker 4: I think we need better than that.
Speaker 5: Reason that I put in is I said I want
Speaker 5: rage and ranting rage, did a I make that?
Speaker 3: Or has someone a producer on our teammate? And I said,
Speaker 3: send that to print. That's perfect. Can I make a request?
Speaker 3: Can I make a jingle one time for fan dreams Dream? Yeah, studio,
Speaker 3: I can redo it.
Speaker 4: I think we might need to workshop that one. Honestly,
Speaker 4: I'm a little bit I.
Speaker 1: Thought I was envisioning kind of like an old school
Speaker 1: YouTube intro, Like remember when we would have an intro
Speaker 1: Rand of the week, Rand of the week, It's time
Speaker 1: for Matts Rand of the week, and then it goes
Speaker 1: into your rand.
Speaker 2: I think with the rage, I was expecting me to
Speaker 2: drums bit of guitar in their electric guitar. Wow and
Speaker 2: wow a week you know like that? But the fuck
Speaker 2: was the car crash happening?
Speaker 3: What's going on? Let's keep it all right? No, well, anyway,
Speaker 3: I'm requesting.
Speaker 4: I genuinely hate it is.
Speaker 3: Your rand of the week?
Speaker 2: That yeah, that's one part. That's one part. But I
Speaker 2: have a second Round of the week, and I love
Speaker 2: that this is now just so quickly become a permanent fixture.
Speaker 2: But this week's round of the week is Uber Eats.
Speaker 4: Uber Eats.
Speaker 2: Pull your fucking heading for starters. That's what I've got
Speaker 2: to say, because tell me why. Here's the thing. I
Speaker 2: have gotten to the point with my Uber eats that
Speaker 2: I now have to give a pin. Do you have
Speaker 2: to give the pin?
Speaker 3: Yeah? And it's the last four diges of my phone
Speaker 3: number every time.
Speaker 2: Every time, well, because I think we have said, however
Speaker 2: many times that the food hasn't arrived, so now they
Speaker 2: make sure with the pin.
Speaker 3: It's actually that it gets to.
Speaker 2: The right person. Okay, which is lovely. The problem that
Speaker 2: I have with uber eats is when I get a
Speaker 2: refund for something, do you find that they don't give
Speaker 2: you the correct money back?
Speaker 3: I've never checked.
Speaker 4: Okay, here we go Matt's Round of the week.
Speaker 2: Uber Eats. Where the fuck is my money?
Speaker 4: Pay up?
Speaker 3: Motherfuckers's you a percentage of the items?
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this, mute, right, let's go. Okay, say
Speaker 2: they forget a chips. It's seven dollars fifty for the chips.
Speaker 2: I'll go, hello, my chips is missing. It's seven dollars fifty.
Speaker 2: I've paid seven dollars fifty for it. I go, hello,
Speaker 2: my chips is missing. They go, great, here's your refund
Speaker 2: of four dollars fifty you have you said?
Speaker 3: Why?
Speaker 2: What have you like? Yes?
Speaker 3: And what they say?
Speaker 2: Nothing? But I don't come back to You know how hard
Speaker 2: it is to contact a human being at uber or
Speaker 2: uber eats. No, you can't, like you literally can't even
Speaker 2: when like it goes via email to someone comes back
Speaker 2: and goes whatever. Anyway, Literally, I made an order not
Speaker 2: long ago and I was owed like twenty five dollars
Speaker 2: and then they sent me seventeen dollars back and I'm.
Speaker 3: Like, Dolly, what are they saying? It's a handling fee?
Speaker 2: I don't know, and I'd like them to answer that
Speaker 2: question for me. Second of all, I've now been getting
Speaker 2: a new notification this order is not eligible for a refund. Sorry.
Speaker 3: How many times your orders getting stuffed done?
Speaker 2: Well the way, I'm not even kidding, like genuinely almost
Speaker 2: every time. I need to stop. And I went through
Speaker 2: that big period of never ordering. I need to get
Speaker 2: back on that train and keeping it as a treat again,
Speaker 2: because you know, with moving house and things, all those
Speaker 2: things happening, I've been getting a bit lazy and you
Speaker 2: just need to do get takeaway food when you're moving
Speaker 2: house and doing all those sorts of transitional things. So
Speaker 2: Sky and I have been ordering it a lot. Now
Speaker 2: they're saying the order isn't eligible for a refund. So
Speaker 2: we're like, hello, so we ordered from this past to
Speaker 2: place that we'd never ordered from before. Sky's gluten free.
Speaker 2: Well they've sent the wrong everything. He can't eat his dinner.
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I'll got a refund on it. Eligible,
Speaker 2: not eligible for a refund?
Speaker 1: What it?
Speaker 2: Breads? Pull your fucking had in mate. First of all,
Speaker 2: when I am eligible for a refund, you don't give
Speaker 2: me the full amount. Second of all, now are you
Speaker 2: telling me my orders not eligible for a refund? Which
Speaker 2: I'd like the legalities on all of that. How are
Speaker 2: you saying my order isn't eligible for a refund? What's
Speaker 2: the A triple C? Got to do a triple C?
Speaker 2: What are they going to say about that?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, if we.
Speaker 1: Got a button that's accidentally fallen off one of our
Speaker 1: fate dresses and we don't refund the customer, they're that
Speaker 1: threaten us to go to the a triple C. So
Speaker 1: come on, Uber eats, right, I'm refunding people over a
Speaker 1: button that's fucking fallen off. Right, If you're not getting something,
Speaker 1: you're definitely entitled for a refund, right, so.
Speaker 2: How are they getting away with saying it's not eligible
Speaker 2: for a refund Anyway, it was a big who haa
Speaker 2: back and forth, back and forth, email, email, email, and
Speaker 2: we ended up getting our money back for it. But
Speaker 2: I was like, I just I know there are people
Speaker 2: who are routing the system out there, but I think,
Speaker 2: first of all, like it's always there's always a drink missing,
Speaker 2: or they've forgotten the garlic bread, or they've forgotten the chips,
Speaker 2: or they've forgotten something. It's not the driver fault. It's
Speaker 2: not Uber's fault, it's a restaurant's fault. But then I
Speaker 2: can't actually give the feedback straight to the restaurant or
Speaker 2: even on the app.
Speaker 4: It's like rate your delivery driver.
Speaker 2: Well, he's just been given the bag which is sealed
Speaker 2: and taped over from the restaurant, so he's done his
Speaker 2: job good because he actually brought me the order.
Speaker 4: It's the correct order. It's just missing something.
Speaker 3: You'll know the fucked thing.
Speaker 1: I don't know if we've spoken about this on the
Speaker 1: pot already, but we have a cafe in Newcastle and
Speaker 1: we signed up to Uber Eats like ages Ago and
Speaker 1: We got rid of it because it was so fucked.
Speaker 1: It was so bad to be like a a business
Speaker 1: on uber eats. Huh, not only for the price, because
Speaker 1: uber eats takes thirty percent.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you inflate everything.
Speaker 1: That's why everything is so expensive on uber eats because
Speaker 1: uber eat takes thirty fucking percent. Like that's all your profits.
Speaker 1: And when you're a cafe, things aren't that expensive. I
Speaker 1: mean they are, but you know, like you're not making
Speaker 1: that much profit, like on a fucking cup of coffee
Speaker 1: to begin.
Speaker 2: That's it's nineteen dollars for an egg on a piece.
Speaker 1: Of toast, Yeah, because uber eats takes thirty So you've
Speaker 1: got to put the price up by thirty because otherwise
Speaker 1: you make minimal, like nothing if you just keep the
Speaker 1: prices the same. But the fucked thing was like we
Speaker 1: would get an order come in, so then it tells
Speaker 1: you how far the driver is, so we'd like prepare
Speaker 1: the coffees, prepare the toasties and like they're hot things,
Speaker 1: and then the driver wouldn't come for whatever reason. You
Speaker 1: know how drivers cancel them and it's like finding another driver.
Speaker 1: So then we would have these coffees in food sitting
Speaker 1: there just going cold. So then we'd have to waste
Speaker 1: it and make it again when the next driver was coming, Like,
Speaker 1: we went through so much waste. And then the fuck
Speaker 1: thing as well is the drivers then rate the restaurant
Speaker 1: as well, and like if they couldn't find a park,
Speaker 1: they'd get pissed off and rate us one star. So
Speaker 1: then our star rating went so low. I told them
Speaker 1: to absolutely get fucked and we canceled our membership with them.
Speaker 1: I mean, call me ever since saying you're gonna sign
Speaker 1: up again, I just say, no, you'se a fucked You
Speaker 1: take three thirty percent, and the drivers just always cancel.
Speaker 1: We're left with cold coffees and cold toasty's, Like so
Speaker 1: much money going down the drain.
Speaker 3: It's not bloody worth it.
Speaker 1: It's obviously worth it for some businesses, but a little
Speaker 1: coffee shop.
Speaker 3: Not fucking worth it.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 3: Would not recommend to any I.
Speaker 2: Love learning all about that stuff, love hearing all the
Speaker 2: behind the scenes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wouldn't recommend. Maybe the big chains and the macs
Speaker 3: and everything.
Speaker 1: It's a lot easier because like fast food, but when
Speaker 1: you're like making coffees and toasties not worth it.
Speaker 3: We lost money being on uber eats. So that's my
Speaker 3: rant to add to yours.
Speaker 2: Good So am I justified in my rant? Yes?
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and you should get all your money back, especially
Speaker 1: if you're not getting something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just so random. I'm like, maybe I need
Speaker 2: to skip over to a different delivery app because I
Speaker 2: kind of just stick with you. Oh. Sometimes I do
Speaker 2: the menu log, sometimes I do the door dash.
Speaker 1: I've only ever tried to Uber eats, I think really.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, delivery shut down? I think so. Milk rum
Speaker 2: didn't last long either. Did they shut down as well?
Speaker 3: I keep getting there out they're back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're back. They're being saved.
Speaker 1: They like uber eats, but for groceries I think so.
Speaker 2: Nice. Slay Slay sleigh. Anyway, another episode done and dusted.
Speaker 1: Well that's another episode done and dusted. Maddie boy, you
Speaker 1: all know what to do by this Fontually we have
Speaker 1: to tell them to rate and fucking leave a comment, subscribe,
Speaker 1: do all the things please.
Speaker 2: Thanks for listening, strollers. We will see you on Friday
Speaker 2: for close friends. What we're doing, we tease we're doing stockies.
