Speaker 1: talking about it coming up on this episode. I'm back.
Speaker 1: I mean, I was only gone for a week, but
Speaker 1: I've had a lot of questions. Where were you? What happened?
Speaker 1: I'm giving you the exclusive gossip and it's probably not
Speaker 1: what you think.
Speaker 2: Plus I've ticked a big item off my bucket list.
Speaker 2: Between a very exciting week for me. I can't wait
Speaker 2: to tell you what's happened.
Speaker 1: And I got plastic surgery and I regret it and
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you the story.
Speaker 2: And a restaurant in the US has clapped backed to
Speaker 2: a customer and I am here for they have dragged
Speaker 2: her through the martin I'm going to tell you what
Speaker 2: happened all that coming up on this episode of High Scrollers.
Speaker 2: Deal mean dunk, let's go.
Speaker 1: Good morning, Matthew, good morning morning. Did you miss me?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I did? You know. I got a message from
Speaker 2: one of our scrollers the other day actually calling me out,
Speaker 2: calling me a hypocrite, why saying I should be canceled
Speaker 2: death to all right? Hey, no, I'm just kidding, because
Speaker 2: she did bring up a good point about me rolling
Speaker 2: my eyes at you saying good morning. Why, because I
Speaker 2: have said that, me walking into a room and saying
Speaker 2: good morning. Oh yeah, actually the perfect way someone is
Speaker 2: a vibe or not.
Speaker 1: And she was so much to whoever that is because
Speaker 1: I remember that she was like.
Speaker 2: What's the deal done? And I was like, okay, First
Speaker 2: of all, in my opinion, it's a little different.
Speaker 1: Why because it's me and we're in this studio.
Speaker 2: Yeah no. But also I just feel like your good
Speaker 2: morning is more like you're addressing a kindergarten class.
Speaker 1: Like, Matthew, where's my good morning?
Speaker 2: It's camp? You know.
Speaker 1: I feel like we've gone too far with the good
Speaker 1: mornings now that it's here to stay. Yeah, it wouldn't
Speaker 1: feel the same if I didn't say it.
Speaker 2: I might be coming around to it. To be honest,
Speaker 2: a changed man.
Speaker 1: I saw last week Star said it in my place. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: so even she likes it and she's clued onto it.
Speaker 2: And started so well, thanks for all the feedback Scrollers
Speaker 2: on our first ever replacement guest for the week, everybody
Speaker 2: seemed to love Stars.
Speaker 1: So I'll tell you what I said to Aj last week. Actually,
Speaker 1: I'm surprised that we've been doing high scrollers for one
Speaker 1: year and that is our first time that like one
Speaker 1: of us couldn't be here, Like, I'm surprised. That's fucking dedication.
Speaker 1: That is every Monday, like every Monday for over a year.
Speaker 1: Not one of us has ever been sick or anything.
Speaker 1: Touch wood. But I'm back and sorry for my absence everyone.
Speaker 2: And why were you absent?
Speaker 1: Well, wait before I say this is Craig David canceled?
Speaker 2: The hell is Creg David.
Speaker 1: He's not okay, so we can talk about him. You know,
Speaker 1: there's so many like as an artisan Ship that are canceled,
Speaker 1: so I didn't want to bring him up. But he
Speaker 1: has he has a song. It feels like insomnia. Insomnia. Well,
Speaker 1: that's my theme song soundtrack to my life. I don't
Speaker 1: know what's going on exactly, but over the last few
Speaker 1: months I have been Okay. So, when you're a female,
Speaker 1: you pay attention to your body and your cycle. And
Speaker 1: we have these apps on our phone, Matt, I've got
Speaker 1: the flow app shout Out, And basically, when you're a woman,
Speaker 1: like your body is like clockwork, like you will know
Speaker 1: certain things. Anyway, I don't want to get too much
Speaker 1: into it because kind of boring for you.
Speaker 2: I don't care.
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, you like it.
Speaker 2: Well, our listeners are like female, okay, well all of
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: Okay, like you know, especially when you're tracking your cycle
Speaker 1: on these apps, like you'll wake up and feel really
Speaker 1: fucking angry one day, and then you'll look at where
Speaker 1: you are in your cycle and you're like, oh, this
Speaker 1: makes sense. Like it's like clockwork the way our bodies are.
Speaker 1: So anyway, with these apps, you can put in any symptoms,
Speaker 1: and I feel like when you're a female, you have
Speaker 1: a symptom in every fucking day, whether it's like anger, rage,
Speaker 1: really hungry, stressed out, annoyed, whatever. So over the last
Speaker 1: couple of months, around the same time in my cycle,
Speaker 1: between my period ending and my period starting, I've been
Speaker 1: going through a period, not a period, but a phase,
Speaker 1: a phase where I can't fucking sleep. And so every
Speaker 1: time I have this what feels like insomnia, I've been
Speaker 1: like tracking it and putting it in my app so
Speaker 1: that when it comes around again every month, I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's the same thing again. So anyway to put it
Speaker 1: in a nutshell, I've been having the last few months
Speaker 1: these certain phases where I can't fucking sleep. And usually
Speaker 1: it's I wake up at about two am and then
Speaker 1: can't get back to sleep for hours. And have you
Speaker 1: ever felt like you have insomnia where you're laying there
Speaker 1: and your eyes are tired, so you shut your eyes,
Speaker 1: but then your brain is like raging and racing. Because
Speaker 1: that's what I've been experiencing for months, and I can
Speaker 1: only put it down to it being a hormonal thing
Speaker 1: because it happens every single time. And usually I just
Speaker 1: am up in the night for three hours. I finally
Speaker 1: get back to sleep for an hour. I wake up,
Speaker 1: and I go whatever I fucking do the day, even
Speaker 1: though I've had like three hours of broken sleep. But
Speaker 1: last Sunday night, because we record on a Monday, I
Speaker 1: pulled it all fucking nighter like, usually I'm just up
Speaker 1: for three hours in the night. This time I didn't
Speaker 1: get to sleep at all, and I'm like fuck. And
Speaker 1: I was messaging Matt because sometimes you're up really late,
Speaker 1: but that was the one night that you mustle went
Speaker 1: to bed early. So I was messaging Matt like every
Speaker 1: two to three hours, going I haven't fucking slept. And
Speaker 1: then it was like two am, and then it was
Speaker 1: four am, and I'm sending Matt messages like sos, what
Speaker 1: the fuck is going on? He got to like five
Speaker 1: or six am, and I'm like, fuck this. I just
Speaker 1: felt like a scatter brain, you know when you haven't
Speaker 1: slept and you feel like a scatter brain. And so
Speaker 1: I just message and I'm like, guys, this is what's
Speaker 1: happened tonight. I'm so sorry, but I don't trust myself.
Speaker 1: I would have been fine driving to Sydney I reckon
Speaker 1: and recording here, but then driving home, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I was like, I just haven't slept. Can someone fucking help?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Me? And you know, it's so weird. It's meant
Speaker 2: to be because that day I randomly was up at
Speaker 2: six am, wasn't I because I planned to go to
Speaker 2: breakfast in the city anyway, and then go for a
Speaker 2: walk and then come to do the podcast because usually
Speaker 2: I wake up, I'm in the shower, I've put clothes on,
Speaker 2: I'm out the door, and I'm rocking up to the
Speaker 2: podcast studio with one minute to spare yes. And this
Speaker 2: one particular day, it was like the stars relying. I
Speaker 2: was like, I'm up at six am.
Speaker 1: But we went to bed early that night, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I've got your sleeping pattern passed on to me or
Speaker 1: tee you. What's funny that day, Like I thought, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm going to stay home, I'm not going to go
Speaker 1: to work. I'm going to sleep. I couldn't sleep that
Speaker 1: whole day, and then I couldn't sleep that night, and
Speaker 1: then my fucked sleeping went on for the next however
Speaker 1: many nights, and it was Thursday night last week that
Speaker 1: I finally slept all the way through. And I've slept
Speaker 1: good all weekend and last night, and I'm like, what
Speaker 1: the fuck is going on? And then I think I
Speaker 1: need to start taking some vitamins and like magnesium or
Speaker 1: things like that. But I feel like I always try
Speaker 1: to do that and like take good vitamins and whatever.
Speaker 1: But then I just forget, and it got me thinking,
Speaker 1: is there this is a great business for like some
Speaker 1: doctor out there or whatever. Imagine if you maybe you
Speaker 1: can going and getting like once a month an injection
Speaker 1: that has magnesium this that, blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Like how good would that be?
Speaker 2: Then you don't have to take tablets?
Speaker 1: Yes, Like why is that a thing? Because I know
Speaker 1: you can go and get like a vitamin yeah like whatever,
Speaker 1: or like a vitamin B shot. But is there one
Speaker 1: where you can just go and get like a multi
Speaker 1: vitamin injected in that last all month? Like that is
Speaker 1: a billion dollar business idea. Surely it's a thing, But
Speaker 1: I've never heard anyone going and doing that a multi
Speaker 1: vitamin shot, magnesium and all the good stuff. I need
Speaker 1: to do that. Yeah, anyway, moral of the story is
Speaker 1: I've been having shock and fucking sleeps.
Speaker 2: Welcome to my life, and you hate it? See I
Speaker 2: love it.
Speaker 1: You love not sleeping. Yeah, I wouldn't mind if I
Speaker 1: had laved here, like I just would have come in
Speaker 1: and like done the record. But I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: not driving four hours on no sleep.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I love when my brain is like going
Speaker 2: one hundred miles now no, I hate you.
Speaker 1: Then I'm listening to brown noise, white noise, meditation things.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'll read something online and like you feel
Speaker 1: like you've got ready to fall asleep, but as soon
Speaker 1: as you close your eyes, it's like you're so awake.
Speaker 2: You should start reading because it clears your mind. And
Speaker 2: I am reading. Also, if I'm already tired, reading makes
Speaker 2: me so tired that I like can't keep my eyes open.
Speaker 2: I need to and then I always as soon as
Speaker 2: I stop reading, I know I'm asleep in ten seconds.
Speaker 2: Like it's amazing because you can't focus on anything else
Speaker 2: but what you're reading. Yeah, for the most part. Anyway, Well,
Speaker 2: it's good to have you back.
Speaker 1: I'm back, and I've been sleeping good for like the
Speaker 1: last four nights.
Speaker 2: So yeah, well regardless of not sleeping, Well, did you
Speaker 2: have a good week? No? Oh, okay, like I did.
Speaker 1: It was a regular week. But you know, when you're
Speaker 1: sleeping is so I mean it's I work full time
Speaker 1: and work with all stuff, so it's actually so fucking
Speaker 1: annoying to try and be normal, Uh huh when I've
Speaker 1: been having the worst sleep ever. Yeah, but yeah, it
Speaker 1: was still good, Like good week regardless, and I finally
Speaker 1: had that good sleep on Thursday night. I woke up
Speaker 1: on Friday morning, said aj, I slept all the way
Speaker 1: through and I was like so fucking excited. So yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the highlight of mind.
Speaker 2: Basically like had a bender without like any of the substances.
Speaker 1: Just absolutely raging for no reason.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I love that. I've put it all in my
Speaker 1: app and let's see if it happens again that same
Speaker 1: time next month.
Speaker 2: I'll keep us updated.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm so happy because I ticked something huge off
Speaker 2: my bucket list this week. I'm sorry you had a
Speaker 2: bad week, but I it wasn't bad.
Speaker 1: I don't want to say that, but just annoying, Like
Speaker 1: you can't function on no sleep anyway, yet continue.
Speaker 2: I ticked something big off my bucket list, and that
Speaker 2: is that I felt my first ever earthquake. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: yes there, Oh my god. It was calm, but it
Speaker 2: was so calm. So did you feel either of them,
Speaker 2: because they were they were actually multiple, but there were
Speaker 2: two big ones.
Speaker 1: No, so that day. So that was on Friday last week.
Speaker 1: I just so happened to be driving around all day
Speaker 1: and I was in the fatemobile and that's quite like Rocky,
Speaker 1: So I'm guessing at the time that it happened, we
Speaker 1: were on the road driving and didn't feel it at all,
Speaker 1: and then all the girls in the warehouse and I
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, did everyone feel that. I'm like,
Speaker 1: what feel what?
Speaker 2: Yeah? So there was the first one, which was a
Speaker 2: big one, like five points something magnitude, and this was in.
Speaker 1: Muscle Brook, which is like two hours in from Newcastle.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then there was a second one I think
Speaker 2: either the next day or the day after. There'd been
Speaker 2: a few nights I think or yeah, and the second
Speaker 2: one that I felt, and it was and it was
Speaker 2: at like fourthirty I messaged all my friends and was like,
Speaker 2: did anyone feel the earthquake? And everyone gas lipped me
Speaker 2: and was like, no, babe, there was nothing. I was
Speaker 2: I must have been some construction downstairs or something. They're
Speaker 2: no werries. And then the news came out like a
Speaker 2: few hours later saying there was another one at four
Speaker 2: thirty pm and it was a two point something magnitude
Speaker 2: and that's the one I felt. And it was so
Speaker 2: so surreal because I was like in bed at the
Speaker 2: time and it just felt like I was like swaying
Speaker 2: on a boat. I mean we're in a high rise
Speaker 2: apartment and we're quite high up, so I was like, yeah,
Speaker 2: thinking it might have been like a construction or something,
Speaker 2: when everyone was like, no, that didn't happen, But it
Speaker 2: actually did, and I have felt an earthquake, which is
Speaker 2: like a bucket list moment for me. Like I'm like
Speaker 2: ticke it off because sorry to be that person, and
Speaker 2: like I don't want to come across as like insensitive,
Speaker 2: but like, god, I love. It's actually no, that's the
Speaker 2: wrong word. No, maybe I can't say.
Speaker 1: I think they say you were you glad to live
Speaker 1: through a natural disaster?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you know what, Like no, like I'm I
Speaker 2: don't think I love, but I think I'm really fascinated
Speaker 2: by natural disasters.
Speaker 1: Well, you know in like La and California. Have you
Speaker 1: seen like people on TikTok just making tiktoks and there's
Speaker 1: just an earthquake happening. But that's so normal to them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're just like whatever, just an earthquake. Yeah, they have
Speaker 1: them all the time. Well, AJ should be really glad
Speaker 1: about this too, because in nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2: God, here we go for History podcast now we'll do everything.
Speaker 2: I realized.
Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty nine, which is a year that AJ was born,
Speaker 1: there was a massive earthquake in Newcastle, but it was
Speaker 1: actually like like big and quite devastating. AJ has always
Speaker 1: joked and said like he lived through it and he
Speaker 1: survived kind of thing, but he was literally in the cot.
Speaker 2: Like not even one.
Speaker 1: So now he can say he's lived and survived two earthquakes. Wow,
Speaker 1: so he's one step ahead of you on the bucket list.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, obviously it's devastating for people, and obviously
Speaker 2: I don't love that aspect of like death and destruction.
Speaker 2: But I know I was even love watching a cyclone. No,
Speaker 2: I don't think it was big enough for anyone to
Speaker 2: get hurst. Yeah, but I just love, you know, watching
Speaker 2: a tornado. Well, you know, remember that movie is a
Speaker 2: bit much. I don't know. I think there'll be some
Speaker 2: people out there who agree with me and go, yeah,
Speaker 2: I know exactly what you're what you're talking about, like
Speaker 2: love love naturally.
Speaker 1: Does not have a natural disaster happens.
Speaker 2: But of course I would rather not have that as well.
Speaker 2: And I obviously don't want anyone to get hurt or
Speaker 2: die or anything like that. But I will sound fascinated
Speaker 2: by tsunamis and and those End of the World movies
Speaker 2: as well. You know, the day after tomorrow they've got
Speaker 2: that big mega tsunami, the earthquakes, the earth opens up,
Speaker 2: all those like end of the World movies, apocalypse style
Speaker 2: movies where like the world is getting destroyed. Yeah, oh
Speaker 2: gets me off love those.
Speaker 1: It does scare me that that earthquake just happened, and
Speaker 1: the fact that that could happen at any time, and
Speaker 1: we could be here right now and there could be
Speaker 1: a massive earthquake and like the ground outside could just
Speaker 1: split in half and that could be it.
Speaker 2: But it's so weird because in Australia it doesn't really
Speaker 2: happen because we're like on a tectonic plate right where
Speaker 2: it's earthquakes are from two tectonicquakes plates like sliding together.
Speaker 1: Right at this one, see the diagram, and it's like this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's rare, but it's happened, and it could. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I feel bad for what I've said now. I feel
Speaker 2: bad because like there'd be people who have probably experienced it,
Speaker 2: like yeah, no, because you know, people have lost their
Speaker 2: flood houses in floods and fires in Australia having and
Speaker 2: se Yeah, I don't. I don't care about those, like
Speaker 2: those natural disasters. No, then, like I'm talking twisters, I'm
Speaker 2: talking even earthquakes, not not really that fascinated. I'm talking
Speaker 2: twisters and tsunamis. There's just something about them for me
Speaker 2: everything else.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Like I'm like, I'm trying.
Speaker 1: I used to love that movie when we were kids.
Speaker 1: Was in you know they were the storm Chasers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they would drive out, Yeah, and they would drive
Speaker 1: out in that. That's a really good movie if anyone.
Speaker 2: It's just a new one that came out a couple
Speaker 2: months really, Yeah, and.
Speaker 1: They chase after the storms and get really close to
Speaker 1: the eye of it.
Speaker 2: Guy wants to do that, s Guy wants to go
Speaker 2: to America and pay You can pay for a storm
Speaker 2: chasing tour for like ten to twelve days and it's
Speaker 2: during cyclone season and you actually fly over and you're
Speaker 2: on like tour with them, like in a kaniki bus
Speaker 2: probably like something a bit faster, and you actually go
Speaker 2: and you and you go right into the eye of it.
Speaker 1: Was it cool to see?
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I want to go with him?
Speaker 1: And I was like Oh, what if your fucking minibus
Speaker 1: that much? What if your minibus gets swept up in
Speaker 1: the fucking middle of the cyclone.
Speaker 2: I'm just thinking, what fucking way for are you signing
Speaker 2: to go on that tour? You know what I mean,
Speaker 2: because he's signing his life away. My bloody hell, babe,
Speaker 2: I hope you got your wills sorted before you go.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, speaking of that, do you have a will? No?
Speaker 1: And I know I'm going to get my will done.
Speaker 1: I've contacted my solicitor because I'm like, as I'm getting older,
Speaker 1: I've got more and more things happening in my life
Speaker 1: that are worth a little bit of money. AJ and
Speaker 1: I are going like any day now to get our
Speaker 1: will done, so I'll update you all when i'm done.
Speaker 2: I want to know how much it cost, what the
Speaker 2: process was, how long it took, how hard it was.
Speaker 2: Give us all that information, because yes, I know that
Speaker 2: I should do it.
Speaker 1: Everyone needs to do it. And I even said to AJ,
Speaker 1: I want to make like a couple of reels out
Speaker 1: of this process to kind of encourage everyone to go
Speaker 1: and do it. Yeah, especially like my scenario. I won't
Speaker 1: say much, but with my businesses and then my family,
Speaker 1: Like I could see that turning really fucking ugly, and
Speaker 1: I could see that turning really ugly for AJ. So
Speaker 1: I'm wanting to go there and secure my fucking assets.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. See that's the thing. I don't have
Speaker 2: any So it's like, what's in the wheel that you
Speaker 2: can transfer the couple thousand dollars to someone else and
Speaker 2: call it a day, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Horrible? Like AJ and I've been having these conversations literally
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks, ever since we decided we're
Speaker 1: going to do this, Like how sad it is that
Speaker 1: when people do die, and if there is things like
Speaker 1: we've been talking about, like what would happen with Fate,
Speaker 1: what would happen with this and that, what would happen
Speaker 1: with our money in the bank, and how it could
Speaker 1: turn so ugly and like my whole family. I could
Speaker 1: see people in my family like going after AJ and Fate.
Speaker 1: I hate to say that, but we've been speaking about
Speaker 1: that being a reality and how fucked that would be
Speaker 1: and the fact that AJ would have basically no say
Speaker 1: in it kind of thing, even though he fucking runs
Speaker 1: Fate with me. Isn't that fucking how nasty? People get
Speaker 1: about money when someone has literally died.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that even if you write a will,
Speaker 2: like people can contest it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and even then, like you go and do this
Speaker 1: thing and then people can still fight over it. I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna I don't know what I'm gonna do, but
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you all after I've done it and
Speaker 1: how it went.
Speaker 2: Okay, you put something in there for me, like I
Speaker 2: don't need march. I don't want to hate some money.
Speaker 2: I don't need a business, but just like something fucking
Speaker 2: random and funny.
Speaker 1: One of the girls that works you have your perfume collections.
Speaker 1: I talked to her about. She's like, can I give
Speaker 1: her fumes? I'm like, yeah, so I literally want to
Speaker 1: put that on there that she gets from perfume you
Speaker 1: can have. I just got two pair of songs actually.
Speaker 2: Yeah, nuts, I'll have those. Yeah, but AJ has to
Speaker 2: die for that.
Speaker 1: True. No, even if I die, you get AJ's songs.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder if you can put stuff as stupid
Speaker 1: as that on your will. Hopefully I'm going to ask,
Speaker 1: because don't forget.
Speaker 2: There'd be really like in quotations, stupid things that are
Speaker 2: like really sentimental. Yeah, so you know there'd be things
Speaker 2: on there. They'd have the most random things on there too.
Speaker 1: I'll keep you updated and I'll see how far I
Speaker 1: can go with the craziness of butt and stupid.
Speaker 2: On the most random thing you can find to Alright, Hey,
Speaker 2: I give my toilet brush.
Speaker 1: Soage, Oh you give me a vverridge.
Speaker 2: Give me the V fridge. Thanks, That's what I'll have.
Speaker 1: I'm so interested to do this, like, I'm really looking
Speaker 1: forward to it, like especially being in my scenario with
Speaker 1: all the businesses and all our stuff and like everything.
Speaker 1: So I'll keep you all updated with how that goes,
Speaker 1: and go sort your wheels out. It's just one of
Speaker 1: those things that you just need to do. As grim
Speaker 1: as it is to discuss, we need to try and
Speaker 1: get it done.
Speaker 2: All right, time for our Royal Flush of the Week,
Speaker 2: best thing we've seen on the internet, and I have
Speaker 2: something so fun. As I have stated before on this podcast,
Speaker 2: the customer actually is not always right, and I think
Speaker 2: we're an I think we're in an era where like
Speaker 2: like if I was to work in like you know,
Speaker 2: retail or fast food like I used to, I just
Speaker 2: being the person I am today, I don't think that
Speaker 2: I could just take it like I used to and
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, new worries. I'd be like, fuck off, love,
Speaker 2: get of yourself and move on. I really couldn't do
Speaker 2: it these days, So props to anyone who does work
Speaker 2: in those industries or any industry where you just have
Speaker 2: to put up with people's bullshit. Now. I saw a
Speaker 2: Facebook post the other day from Herberts, which is a
Speaker 2: restaurant in Texas. It's a Mexican restaurant, and there was
Speaker 2: a Facebook post by someone named Susan. She wrote in
Speaker 2: basically like a community group, you know, like your ticks
Speaker 2: and crosses and you know, just community notice sports in
Speaker 2: Facebook groups. She wrote this post about her terrible, terrible
Speaker 2: experience at Herbert's and said, my husband loves their food,
Speaker 2: so we go often. Three weeks ago, we took my
Speaker 2: nephew there for lunch. We all had the lunch special
Speaker 2: and a medium caso. Our bill was fifty four dollars.
Speaker 2: This was before their price increase. I was told that's
Speaker 2: just how how much it is. I was not given
Speaker 2: an itemized bill. We went back today, arrived, placed our
Speaker 2: lunch special order and our bill was twenty eight dollars.
Speaker 2: When I questioned it, I was told we were too
Speaker 2: early to get the special price. The order was submitted
Speaker 2: at ten fifty eight am. I told the cashier that
Speaker 2: was bullshit because it took away a while to acknowledge us,
Speaker 2: and then a few more minutes before he took our
Speaker 2: drinks order. Then he finally, She's spelled everything wrong here. Basically,
Speaker 2: what she's saying is she went in to get the
Speaker 2: lunch special, and she believes that she got the lunch
Speaker 2: special at the lunch special time, which I'm assuming starts
Speaker 2: at eleven am. She thinks that she had her lunch
Speaker 2: during that time. So she posted in that Facebook group
Speaker 2: and obviously people are commenting and getting on her side
Speaker 2: because they've only heard her side of the story. Right. Well,
Speaker 2: the restaurant Herbert's has done the most iconic thing I
Speaker 2: have ever seen, and they have actually posted the security
Speaker 2: footage of this woman's visit to the Mexican restaurant with
Speaker 2: time stamps in the corner and explains her entire visit.
Speaker 2: She actually shows up at ten fifty one, she's greeted
Speaker 2: and sat down at ten fifty one. They've put all
Speaker 2: these timestamps on this video ten fifty two, she gets
Speaker 2: hers chips and salsa, and the food and drink order
Speaker 2: is taken ten fifty four, the drinks are delivered, ten
Speaker 2: fifty eight, the food is delivered, and then at eleven
Speaker 2: twenty two, an itemized receipt is delivered with a to
Speaker 2: go drink. Eleven twenty three, she pays for it. And
Speaker 2: then they've actually included footage of her complaining about not
Speaker 2: getting the lunch special, which starts at eleven am, and
Speaker 2: she had got her food by ten fifty eight, so
Speaker 2: she hasn't ordered in the correct time. They actually then
Speaker 2: posted footage because she's complained about how much she paid.
Speaker 2: They posted footage saying, we actually did give you the
Speaker 2: lunch special because you yelded our server stuff, and here's
Speaker 2: video evidence of us processing your lunch special even though
Speaker 2: you didn't order within the time So.
Speaker 1: They honored it even though she wasn't in the timeframe
Speaker 1: because she complained anyway.
Speaker 2: No, but then she went online and complained and lied
Speaker 2: and said they didn't honor the lunch special and they
Speaker 2: got such bad service and blah blah blah blah blah
Speaker 2: blah blah. It's gone so viral there are news articles
Speaker 2: about this everywhere on behalf of high schoolers. First of all,
Speaker 2: fuck you, Susan, And second of all, imagine being Susan
Speaker 2: and going to that length to be such a Karen
Speaker 2: that you put it in a Facebook group and now
Speaker 2: look at the response. I went, first of all iconic
Speaker 2: on the restaurant's part.
Speaker 1: Yeah, from my standpoint too, Matt, I thought I would
Speaker 1: add there have been. I mean, it's it's very far
Speaker 1: and few between that we get like a bad customer
Speaker 1: at Fate. I think that comes down to our community.
Speaker 1: Like we have an awesome community. Our customers are fucking legends.
Speaker 1: But like once in a blue moon, we have dealt
Speaker 1: with like a nasty kind of situation and we do
Speaker 1: the same thing. Like not that we've ever shared it
Speaker 1: on social media, but every time something happens and someone
Speaker 1: contact contacts us, complaining or whatever, I'll always jump on
Speaker 1: our cameras because I don't think people think like our
Speaker 1: stores are covered like by cameras, we can see every interaction. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I've jumped on our cameras before and like watched
Speaker 1: back to see if the interaction is what the cust
Speaker 1: to missays and you diet how often the customer is wrong. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in that scenario and that they were helped and they
Speaker 1: were greeted, they go, oh, I wasn't even greeted. And
Speaker 1: then we watched back the footage and it's like they
Speaker 1: got said hello too as soon as they walked in
Speaker 1: the door. Like they just twist the narrative to suit
Speaker 1: whatever they're frustrated about. Yeah, why do people do that?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it's all about your attitude
Speaker 2: as well. Like I remember when I would work in
Speaker 2: retail and things like that, Customers would almost come in
Speaker 2: wanting a fight or wanting a bad experience in a way,
Speaker 2: like it felt like some people would come and be like, Hi,
Speaker 2: how are you going? Oh my gosh, yes, I'm looking
Speaker 2: for this, And some people would be like do you
Speaker 2: have this? Yeah, and it's like, why are your rude lover?
Speaker 2: We barely know each other, what's going on? I feel
Speaker 2: like some people like also walk in and also brit
Speaker 2: like in your position without like I don't want to
Speaker 2: offend you when I say this, but I feel like
Speaker 2: people would walk into fate wanting to have a bad
Speaker 2: experience to be like, fuck Britney Saunders. You know what
Speaker 2: I mean, like there'd be people wanting to go in
Speaker 2: and find all the problems just to be like, oh,
Speaker 2: it's not as good as you know what she puts
Speaker 2: on the internet.
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't agree more. And I very much know
Speaker 1: that now that there is that personal association between me
Speaker 1: and Fate and the business and consumers as well. And
Speaker 1: I've been doing it for long enough now that I
Speaker 1: can tell when someone's doing it for that reaction or whatever,
Speaker 1: and I've learnt to actually not give a fuck about
Speaker 1: that because I know, at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: not everyone's gonna love Fate the same way. Not everyone
Speaker 1: loves cotton On, Like the amount of times I've gone
Speaker 1: into cotton On tried shit on and gone, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: fucking ugly. But then I have heaps of other cotton
Speaker 1: On stuff that I like. And I think people can
Speaker 1: often get it twisted or have the lines blurred and
Speaker 1: think that because I am this public figure and own
Speaker 1: this brand, that everything should be perfect for them because
Speaker 1: I've made it or something. It's like no, like I'm
Speaker 1: not going to be able to make a pair of
Speaker 1: jeans that every single person loves. But then because there
Speaker 1: is that personal connection with me, they might be more
Speaker 1: likely to say yeah, it shit, you know, whereas like fuck,
Speaker 1: I'll go back to cotton on. But some things and
Speaker 1: there I've tried on and it's horrendous.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, it just is the way that it is.
Speaker 2: For sure. Well, I feel like, if you ever want
Speaker 2: to start calling out customers, I'll support.
Speaker 1: There has been some times where I'm like, I want
Speaker 1: to fucking especially if they've gone like public and written
Speaker 1: bad reviews and whatever, and I've got the video evidence
Speaker 1: right there. But even if they reach out to us
Speaker 1: and like, yeah, this happened, blah blah blah. I've received
Speaker 1: some horrible emails that, like we once had, I don't
Speaker 1: want to fuck it. It's the corner of the internet here,
Speaker 1: we can talk about it whatever we want. Not recently,
Speaker 1: maybe in the last like three months, so maybe recently.
Speaker 1: I had this email sent from a girl who wrote
Speaker 1: an email on behalf of her and all of her
Speaker 1: friends that had come into our Newcastle store and visited
Speaker 1: the cafe next door, like our cafe, and she had
Speaker 1: not a single nice thing to say about anything. She's like,
Speaker 1: we walked in, it was horrible. We didn't get say
Speaker 1: hello to like every single thing, like she just said
Speaker 1: the most horrible thing about every detail of our store
Speaker 1: and the experience. And then I went to the cafe
Speaker 1: and that was the people were rude, the coffee was cold,
Speaker 1: Like it was just obvious that, like you just set
Speaker 1: out to fucking do this in the first place. And
Speaker 1: Agent and I sat there pissing ourselves watching the footage.
Speaker 1: Like they walked in, they all had their arms crossed,
Speaker 1: they were looking through the rack like ugh, like you know,
Speaker 1: like you set yourself up for that. And I so
Speaker 1: just want to be an asshole in that scenario and
Speaker 1: just say, well, fucking don't ever come back again then,
Speaker 1: like you set out to hate and shit on everything
Speaker 1: that I do, but jokes on them they spent money
Speaker 1: at out due like I won in that scenario, And
Speaker 1: all I wrote back like again, because like I genuinely care,
Speaker 1: and if someone has had a bad experience, we will
Speaker 1: want to resolve that for them, Like we will want
Speaker 1: to issue them an apology and invite them back in,
Speaker 1: you know, if they have genuinely had a terrible experience.
Speaker 1: But being able to go and look at the footage
Speaker 1: and then see what actually happened, it doesn't make me
Speaker 1: want to apologize or welcome them back in. So I
Speaker 1: just sent back a blanket response like thank you so
Speaker 1: much for your feedback. And then I love saying I've
Speaker 1: gone through your visit at Outdoo and fate and how
Speaker 1: to look at everything that's happened. And I didn't say
Speaker 1: sorry or anything in the emails. I'm not saying sorry
Speaker 1: to you when you came in with that intention. So yeah,
Speaker 1: being able to look at the cameras is just fucking gold.
Speaker 2: That's what I mean about people just coming in with
Speaker 2: like an attitude. I feel like they your I mean,
Speaker 2: your attitude affects your environment and your experience in life,
Speaker 2: and so if you go into something not happy or
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call that, that's.
Speaker 1: Going to be your exact experience exactly. And I love
Speaker 1: I love the camera thing because I love just being
Speaker 1: able to say like, I've thoroughly reviewed and they go
Speaker 1: because then they know I've seen everything in the conversation.
Speaker 2: If they've inflated anything, yeah.
Speaker 1: Imagine them quite live shit. They can watch what happened. Anyway.
Speaker 1: They spent money on coffee and pastries, so that's a.
Speaker 2: Win for me. Ah well, what's your royal flush of
Speaker 2: the week.
Speaker 1: Now, well, I've got a game, another game.
Speaker 2: I love games. Geha, No, you.
Speaker 1: Would actually love this game, Matt, okay, and you all
Speaker 1: have to play it. Do you remember when we were
Speaker 1: in high school and you would get on those game
Speaker 1: websites like mini clip dot com, Like you remember playing
Speaker 1: games on those websites and you would go on. There's
Speaker 1: just like hundreds of games to pick from and you'd
Speaker 1: play like the doll dress up games like I don't know,
Speaker 1: Barbie Makeover and Brats whatever. Well, there's this new game.
Speaker 1: Well I don't know how new it is, but it's
Speaker 1: called Dress to Impress and you play it on Roadblocks
Speaker 1: for any of you that don't know what that is.
Speaker 1: It's like an online server and it is predominantly kids
Speaker 1: like server and game. You can play all sorts of
Speaker 1: games on there anyway. It's free and you need to
Speaker 1: play Dress to Impress on there. I saw Dress to
Speaker 1: Impress coming up on my TikTok maybe you've seen it.
Speaker 1: You okay, explain how the game goes. It's me reliving
Speaker 1: my childhood through this game. Right, So you're in this
Speaker 1: one server. Everyone that's playing is online, and you're this
Speaker 1: little avatar and you're like blank at the start, and
Speaker 1: then you go into this waiting room. You enter the
Speaker 1: game and there is a theme up the top, and
Speaker 1: the themes are really cool, like right now, there's all
Speaker 1: like Brat themes for Charlie XCX, so you'll get like
Speaker 1: Brat Summer Coquette, like all different themes. And then you
Speaker 1: go into this like big room that's like a beauty salon,
Speaker 1: a nails salon, a hair salon, and then there's all
Speaker 1: wardrobes and clothes around and you're this blank little avatar
Speaker 1: and you've got five minutes and there's a countdown. You
Speaker 1: then fully dress up your character in the theme and
Speaker 1: you look all slagh at the end, and then there's
Speaker 1: a catwalk at the end, so each character walks down
Speaker 1: the runway. Have you seen these clips on TikTok? You
Speaker 1: need to look it up even just look up dressed
Speaker 1: to impress on TikTok. And then there's a catwalk at
Speaker 1: the end. You all walk down and do a pose
Speaker 1: at the end, and then you vote like out of
Speaker 1: five stars, you rate each other's outfit, and then at
Speaker 1: the end it's like a first, second, and third place
Speaker 1: and then it starts all again.
Speaker 2: That's literally it.
Speaker 1: But it's actually fun, like if you want something like
Speaker 1: therapeutic to do, it makes you be creative because there's
Speaker 1: so many like outfits and whatever, and the themes are
Speaker 1: really crazy, like what are some of the other themes
Speaker 1: like movie character, TV star, like you can dress up
Speaker 1: as whoever, celebrities whatever. It's really fun, like a creative
Speaker 1: little outlet. And you just download Roadblocks on your laptop
Speaker 1: and it's so fun so that I'll take your word
Speaker 1: for it.
Speaker 2: Okay, if I know you don't this, this what you
Speaker 2: were doing when you had insomnia or roadblocks? No, I
Speaker 2: discovered this, Braine, just going one hundred miles an hour,
Speaker 2: going oh, what themes coming next? What should I outfit?
Speaker 1: So fun?
Speaker 2: How am I going to get five points?
Speaker 1: Go and look up dress to impress? Even just look
Speaker 1: it up on TikTok everyone, because it's so fun and
Speaker 1: it's like take me back to my childhood playing those
Speaker 1: dress up games online, but it's just.
Speaker 2: Better and you have to pay for it.
Speaker 1: No, it's free. You can pay if you want the
Speaker 1: VIP because then there's this other room that you can
Speaker 1: go into that has more like outfits and the outfits
Speaker 1: and the clothes and the shoesy accessories. It's all like
Speaker 1: sligh right, yeah, you need to look it up. Dressed
Speaker 1: to impress.
Speaker 2: Okay, reminds me of Flake, that Kim Kardashian game. Remember
Speaker 2: the Kim Kardashian.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's very much like that, but even better. I
Speaker 1: used to play that game.
Speaker 2: Really, what was it called?
Speaker 1: Was it just Kim kardashi and.
Speaker 2: In Hollywood or something?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I spent some money on that thing.
Speaker 2: Did you you know what? Did you? Well? Yeah? Okay,
Speaker 2: So I think I've told this story before, but I'll
Speaker 2: tell it again because it's so good. So I was
Speaker 2: going through my bank statements one time, this is many
Speaker 2: years ago now, and I could see all these charges
Speaker 2: from Apple and I was like, I haven't bought anything
Speaker 2: from Apple or on the app Store or anything like that.
Speaker 2: And I ended up calling Apple to be like what, oh,
Speaker 2: there's charges and they're going, oh, we're not sure. This
Speaker 2: could be fraudulent activity on your account. And I'm going, well,
Speaker 2: what's going on? I need to shut this damn players.
Speaker 2: You need to help me out here. I know I
Speaker 2: want to get out. Are you fun for all these charges?
Speaker 2: And he's going, okay, well, let me look into this.
Speaker 2: Let me look into this. Blah blah blah. He's like,
Speaker 2: are you're sure you haven't you know, paid any of
Speaker 2: you haven't you know, bought any of this stuff. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, there's no way. I'm not stupid enough.
Speaker 2: I'm not stupid enough to be spending money on things
Speaker 2: on the app Store. I've never bought anything on the
Speaker 2: app Store because i haven't. I'm one of those people
Speaker 2: still to this day, rarely purchase anything on the app Store.
Speaker 2: Hate if it's a game and it's like, you know,
Speaker 2: pay this to like get a million coin, There's no
Speaker 2: way I'm doing that. And even things like when you
Speaker 2: get a free trial and then it's like to unlock
Speaker 2: all the features. Like in fact, cap cut, you know
Speaker 2: the video editing software that we use for like TikTok.
Speaker 2: So TikTok like told us all to use cap cuts,
Speaker 2: So we all went over to cap cut because that's
Speaker 2: where all the features were. They used to be in TikTok,
Speaker 2: and then they made TikTok really basic editing, and we're like,
Speaker 2: use cap cut. So went over to cap cut. I've
Speaker 2: been using that for a while, and you know, you
Speaker 2: could do everything well now they've got cap cut Pro
Speaker 2: and it's however much money a month, And you can't
Speaker 2: even add captions to your videos without paying for the
Speaker 2: pro which is however much money a month? And I
Speaker 2: find that, first of all, so ablest and discriminatory, because
Speaker 2: how dare you not let me put captions on my
Speaker 2: true videos for people who are hard of hearing or death?
Speaker 2: First of all, not acceptable in my eyes for them
Speaker 2: to have to charge to put captions. That's absolutely povo,
Speaker 2: that's derro as like, come on, no, I'm not Currey.
Speaker 1: I've got an actual life hack for you and for everyone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: on this topic. On my other podcast, Big Business, I
Speaker 1: had Victoria Divine on from She's on the Money, and
Speaker 1: she gave me a life hack when it comes to subscriptions.
Speaker 1: If you ever want to sign up to something that
Speaker 1: is a subscription, and you know how usually they'll have
Speaker 1: a free trial, like to say, a month free trial,
Speaker 1: and then you start getting charged. But if it's something
Speaker 1: that you're not sure if you want to keep paying for,
Speaker 1: but you know how easily we forget about those subscriptions
Speaker 1: and then you don't realize and you're paying all these subscriptions.
Speaker 1: She said, go to Cohal's or Woolly's or wherever or
Speaker 1: servos and buy a gift card. You know how, you
Speaker 1: can buy gift cards at are like ten dollars and
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a credit a Viza gift card thing.
Speaker 1: She's like, use that to sign up to your free
Speaker 1: subscriptions so that when the free subscription runs out, it'll
Speaker 1: charge that and then if it has no money left
Speaker 1: on it, it'll just like cancel the subscription automatically. Nice,
Speaker 1: so then you don't have to worry about your actual
Speaker 1: card getting charged the monthly fee.
Speaker 2: So you know what I do. I sign up for
Speaker 2: the free trial and cancel it straight away.
Speaker 1: Well, this is in case you forget to do that,
Speaker 1: Like that was a good hack for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a good hack if you forget to
Speaker 2: do that. But if I sign up to any free
Speaker 2: trial thirty days, seven days, whatever it may be, you
Speaker 2: just cancel it. I can. I sign up and then
Speaker 2: cancel immediately.
Speaker 1: And they give you the month still too.
Speaker 2: They still give you the months to use it, so
Speaker 2: then when the month runs out, it runs out. And
Speaker 2: then if I really have enjoyed and used the product
Speaker 2: or the service or whatever it may be, I will
Speaker 2: sign up again. But that's my little hack on the
Speaker 2: same wavelength. But anyway, capcut can get stuff because they're
Speaker 2: not giving us captions. I think that's so rude. I
Speaker 2: think all the other features or you know, even changing
Speaker 2: the captions to fancy riding and things like that, sure,
Speaker 2: but like basic captions, that's just rude and not on
Speaker 2: in my opinion anyway, hate when they you know. So
Speaker 2: what I'm trying to say is I barely ever pay
Speaker 2: for that sort of stuff. So this guy on the
Speaker 2: phone's like, oh, well, you're sure, You're sure? Sure? I said,
Speaker 2: I am telling you there's no why that I have
Speaker 2: spent that money. He goes, have you buy any chance
Speaker 2: been playing the Kim Kardashian Hollywood game? I went, oh, huh,
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry to waste your time of a fabulous day.
Speaker 2: And I hung up because I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I literally have I'd totally forgotten because I was so
Speaker 2: I mean, that game was like gambling. You know, now,
Speaker 2: I understand gambling addicts that you know in the casinos,
Speaker 2: and you can't say because I'd play it late at night,
Speaker 2: no lights are on, you couldn't see the time on
Speaker 2: the app. Like the time wasn't on the app, so
Speaker 2: that you'd spend more time on the app, and so
Speaker 2: then I was just in a hole as well. Get
Speaker 2: that fancy outfit for thirty four ninety nine, and with.
Speaker 1: That Kim Kardashian Game was the reason why we would
Speaker 1: always pay for it, because you'd have to wait, like
Speaker 1: you know, you'd get to the end of a chapter
Speaker 1: and then it'd be like four hours and it would
Speaker 1: like count down until you could play it again. But
Speaker 1: then like, but if you buy these coins and diamonds,
Speaker 1: you can fast forward, and yes, this four hour break.
Speaker 2: And I think the thing as well is that it
Speaker 2: was all in American dollars on the app, but then
Speaker 2: it's charged, which I think is where I was confused
Speaker 2: to begin with with the whole charges on my bank statement,
Speaker 2: because you know that it was like nine ninety nine
Speaker 2: on the Kim Kardashian app, but then it was like
Speaker 2: fifteen forty four on my bank statement, and I'm going,
Speaker 2: I haven't spent fifteen dollars. But realistically it was just
Speaker 2: like the conversion, right, So yeah, I got sucked into
Speaker 2: the Kim Kardashian game, and I spent like I'm not
Speaker 2: even kidding, like around six hundred dollars on the Kim
Speaker 2: kardash it. So, Kim, you're welcome, send me a few
Speaker 2: Skims headphones please.
Speaker 1: You made a killing out of that. Well, my recommendation
Speaker 1: is everyone download Roadblocks on your laptop. It's good to
Speaker 1: play on the laptop. Okay, it's free, and just play
Speaker 1: Dressed to Impress?
Speaker 2: Can you play with each other like I'd love you
Speaker 2: can join.
Speaker 1: Because it's online that you can invite your friend and
Speaker 1: play together. And you can do the cat walk together,
Speaker 1: so you can do clever costumes together on the theme
Speaker 1: like Little Mermaid and your Ariel and I'm fucking Flounder.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I feel it's more your Aeriel and I'mursula.
Speaker 1: Okay, we will do that. But anyway, if you love
Speaker 1: a dress up game, and if you love those kind
Speaker 1: of games when you're a kid, you're gonna love Dress
Speaker 1: to Impress. Just look it up on TikTok and see
Speaker 1: some of the videos. It's fucking it's slay, Matt, you
Speaker 1: would like.
Speaker 2: It, Okay, I'm telling you a word for it.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know about you, Matt, but my whole
Speaker 1: FYP over the last week has been Christina Aguelera Aguilera, Aguelera,
Speaker 1: she Okay, she slays right now.
Speaker 2: I've always loved her.
Speaker 1: Yeah, me too, She's always been slaying. But people have
Speaker 1: obviously been chatting about her and how all of a
Speaker 1: sudden she looks exactly the same as she did when
Speaker 1: she was eighteen and nineteen in those like Genie in
Speaker 1: a Bottle days, which, by the way, I loved that
Speaker 1: back then, like I remember buying her single for Genie
Speaker 1: in a Bottle and being obsessed with the music video. Well, anyway,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Christina Aguilera looks like she's been
Speaker 1: in a time capsule and looks the same, And there
Speaker 1: has been so much discourse online in regards to what
Speaker 1: has she had done? Yeah, And I always find is
Speaker 1: so interesting when this happens, because I see like plastic
Speaker 1: surgeons like stitching videos and being like, it looks like
Speaker 1: she's had this, that and the other. And what I
Speaker 1: want to know is like, I get it, I understand
Speaker 1: people's obsession with wanting to know these things, but at
Speaker 1: the same time, I'm like, why why is there so
Speaker 1: much obsession over like wanting to know what celebrities have
Speaker 1: had done?
Speaker 2: M hm, And it goes back to again my whole
Speaker 2: thing of fact, why are we commenting on other people's bodies?
Speaker 2: I'm so bored. I'm so bored. I can't be bothered.
Speaker 1: Yes, there's like an obsession and an infatuation with it,
Speaker 1: line like wanting to know she looks great, but like,
Speaker 1: I think she's always been fucking stunning.
Speaker 2: I think the reason that people are so obsessed with
Speaker 2: it is because I think, like for Christina Aguilia or
Speaker 2: a if she's I don't know.
Speaker 1: How old, like she's only forty two or something, right,
Speaker 1: But that's the other thing too, people like she looks crazy.
Speaker 1: It's like she was never seventy and then gone back
Speaker 1: to look in twenty like she's young.
Speaker 2: I think as well, like, no matter what she's done,
Speaker 2: it's probably unachievable for the average person. So like I
Speaker 2: think that they're like trying to see what she's done
Speaker 2: to see if it's achievable for them to do it.
Speaker 2: But in no realm is it going to be achievable?
Speaker 2: If that makes sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I probably have access to things that like, yeah,
Speaker 1: no one else does. Yeah, but it's probably some top
Speaker 1: secret fucking lab that they do something crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. And I mean the other thing as
Speaker 2: well is like I know people who have gotten facelifts
Speaker 2: and the you can tell because there's some scarring behind
Speaker 2: the or above the ear and things like that, because
Speaker 2: they've gotten the facelift and you can see where they've
Speaker 2: kind of stitched the face back together. Whereas like, you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know any of this, but like let's just
Speaker 2: say that costs ten thousand dollars to get that facelift
Speaker 2: here in Australia with random doctor xyz, Like Christina aguila
Speaker 2: is probably paying a million dollars for the same procedure
Speaker 2: because that doctor can hide that scar so well that
Speaker 2: no one will know. Yeah, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: So like, even if you were to go and get
Speaker 2: a facelift, just like Christina Aguilera did, not saying she did,
Speaker 2: but let's just say she did. Yeah, if you went
Speaker 2: and got it, you could probably have a totally different
Speaker 2: experience anyway. Yeah, because it's not only is it if
Speaker 2: you did achieve the same surgery, you may not achieve
Speaker 2: the same results because the doctors that they're going to
Speaker 2: would literally be I would assume.
Speaker 1: This is what I always wonder, Like, do you think
Speaker 1: plastic plastic. Do you think celebrities have access to like
Speaker 1: surgeons and stuff that only service like the elites?
Speaker 2: I reckon surely.
Speaker 1: And imagine the NDAs that like everyone there would have
Speaker 1: to sign because obviously when you're going into surgery, you've
Speaker 1: got the plastic surgeon which is the one doing it,
Speaker 1: but then there's all the nurses, the anesthesis which I
Speaker 1: never know how to say. How do you say that word?
Speaker 2: And I don't know. But also my biggest thing is
Speaker 2: like how fun I mean, I don't know what kind
Speaker 2: of surgeries these celebrities are having, but I think it's
Speaker 2: so funny that, like, you know, Christina Aguilera made like
Speaker 2: let's say she did go and have surgery for whatever,
Speaker 2: Like I'm going someone had to put her catheter in,
Speaker 2: you know what I.
Speaker 1: Mean, there is just asleep on the table and you're
Speaker 1: there like this is Christina Aguilera.
Speaker 2: Doing that, nurse being like I've just got to pop
Speaker 2: that in there. Wow.
Speaker 1: They would have to sign so many things to say
Speaker 1: they are not.
Speaker 2: To tell not because I mean that's a great dinner
Speaker 2: party story. I mean I've I've had to I've had
Speaker 2: to clean Kim Kardashian ship when she had a baby.
Speaker 2: You know, because everyone poo's when they have a baby,
Speaker 2: don't they imagine Kim Kardashian pushing out a kid and
Speaker 2: a turn and you've got to be the nurse. You
Speaker 2: got to be the nurse to what Kim Kardashian's per
Speaker 2: offer and she's having her kids.
Speaker 1: I mean, humbling experience for a celebrity.
Speaker 2: It's a great dinner party story.
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I get what you're saying. Like it's again
Speaker 2: just goes back to that discourse of everyone just wanting
Speaker 2: to and I'm so sick of talking about it. I
Speaker 2: can't be bothered. She looks good, she doesn't look good.
Speaker 2: Who cares, Let's move on. She is putting on some
Speaker 2: great performances.
Speaker 1: So yeah, she's like I feel like she like she's
Speaker 1: always been doing music. But I feel like she had
Speaker 1: her obviously massive breakthrough debut when she was yet a
Speaker 1: teenager and then it was like Moulin Rouge, like you know,
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and then I feel like
Speaker 1: she kind of went into the back, not completely disappeared,
Speaker 1: but for ages, and now I feel like she's having
Speaker 1: her comeback.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I love. Yeah, me too. I know we've
Speaker 2: kind of spoken about it before, but what what haven
Speaker 2: haven't you had done plastic surgery?
Speaker 1: Way? Well, because you've never had your.
Speaker 2: Lips done, which is a big mythbust online Like a
Speaker 2: lot of people say.
Speaker 1: That you that's gone now. I feel like I used
Speaker 1: to get hate for that back in the YouTube days,
Speaker 1: but maybe now I think people might just think I
Speaker 1: have lip filler, and that is what it is, because
Speaker 1: everyone does, right, Okay, but no, I've never had anything
Speaker 1: done to my face, so no botox, none.
Speaker 2: But you did go through your little eye liner tattoo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had an eye line a tattoo when I
Speaker 1: was seventeen in Thailand. That's a bit fucking dangerous.
Speaker 2: Like an eye liner tattoo.
Speaker 1: Lucky it was only like the thinnest line, literally like
Speaker 1: along my lash line, because I've seen some people that
Speaker 1: it got like a full wing and then it like
Speaker 1: fades and goes blue like a normal tattoo, so that
Speaker 1: fully faded off. I've had my eyebrows tattooed, which is
Speaker 1: mainly all faded. Now.
Speaker 2: I'm surprised you haven't got any botox or anything.
Speaker 1: No, I'm try it out. Okay, I might get it
Speaker 1: when I'm a bit older or whatever, but not, I
Speaker 1: feel like I've been fortunate with my skin, like good genetics,
Speaker 1: so I'm happy about that. Nothing in my face yet.
Speaker 1: But I think even if I was to get stuff done,
Speaker 1: like I've had people over the years say like, you've
Speaker 1: got your lips done, You've got this done, You've got
Speaker 1: that done. I'm like, if I got anything done to
Speaker 1: my face, I would just like document it. I put
Speaker 1: on my story, like I'd make content out of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I did have actually one major plastic surgery and
Speaker 1: then I got it reversed. Have I spoke about this
Speaker 1: on high scrollers before?
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 2: If you're talking about your tips.
Speaker 1: So back in our YouTube days, Matt, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you remember, you probably do. It became quite literally
Speaker 1: a trend for beauty gurus to get.
Speaker 2: A boob job, and some doctors or whatever you call
Speaker 2: the people who surgeons would actually do like a sponsored
Speaker 2: like we'll give you free boobs. We'll do a free
Speaker 2: boob job if you promote it.
Speaker 1: To your find think that would happen these days. Back then,
Speaker 1: some beauty gurus literally would go on a trip to
Speaker 1: get their tips done and be fucking hashtag sponsored in plants.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, back in those YouTube days, so when I
Speaker 1: was in my lateeens and early twenties, I saw everyone
Speaker 1: getting tit jobs and I was like, oh, let's even
Speaker 1: say who did it? Los Curtis Shan Exo, Carrisapucus Saturday Nights,
Speaker 1: all right, remember how YouTube was at I remember seeing
Speaker 1: those three getting their boobs done, and that's what made
Speaker 1: me think I want to get it done too. It
Speaker 1: was literally a fucking trend. And then I had like
Speaker 1: smaller boobs, and I don't know, just seeing all these
Speaker 1: and like overseas American beauty gurus too, and they'd all
Speaker 1: do like breast update vlog number one post op, blah blah,
Speaker 1: I just became obsessed with it. So it was always
Speaker 1: on my mind from those days. And then I don't
Speaker 1: remember how old I was when I eventually got them,
Speaker 1: but it was just before I got with AJ, so
Speaker 1: maybe it was eight years ago and I didn't do
Speaker 1: the fucking sponsored thing or whatever, but I went and
Speaker 1: got them actually done by a plastic surgeon in Newcastle,
Speaker 1: where I'm from. My research found the surgeon blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: and looking back, I just think like, what the fuck
Speaker 1: was I doing? Like I was like, what the fuck
Speaker 1: was I doing? Why did I think I needed to
Speaker 1: get that done? So I got it done? And mind you,
Speaker 1: like the surgeon did an amazing job, like they looked great.
Speaker 1: But it's like as soon as I had my boobs done,
Speaker 1: I all of a sudden just had something switch in
Speaker 1: my brain where I thought, why have I done this?
Speaker 1: It's not because they looked bad, like they looked good.
Speaker 1: And then I got with aj and so he'd never
Speaker 1: been with me or known me before I had them
Speaker 1: kind of thing, and all of a sudden, I just
Speaker 1: felt like I hated them, like even though they look great,
Speaker 1: and I couldn't explain it to anyone. I'd be saying, Aja,
Speaker 1: I hate them, Like I just felt like they weren't
Speaker 1: a part of me or something. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: feel like I just had to get the implants to
Speaker 1: realize that I've fucked up, and I liked myself the
Speaker 1: way that I was before. And so for the next
Speaker 1: like two years, I had these boob implants and they
Speaker 1: looked great. That's the weird thing. Like they looked great.
Speaker 1: But I just I didn't want them anymore kind of thing.
Speaker 1: And then I felt too bad to like go back
Speaker 1: to the surgeon to say, like, I love these, like
Speaker 1: they look great, but I don't feel right with this
Speaker 1: on my or in my body. But I eventually did,
Speaker 1: and then I went and got them taken out by
Speaker 1: the same surgeon. I felt terrible, like explaining to him, like,
Speaker 1: you've done a great job, but something inside me is
Speaker 1: just saying this isn't I shouldn't have done this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And it was at that point where I actually shared
Speaker 1: those thoughts on my social media because I had shared
Speaker 1: that I'd gotten them kind of thing, and then I
Speaker 1: guess I felt like an idiot for that as well,
Speaker 1: that I'd shared this journey of getting boob in plants.
Speaker 1: But then I just went fuck it and I shared
Speaker 1: my thoughts surrounding like I regret this. And what surprised
Speaker 1: me was the amount of women that reached out to
Speaker 1: me saying I have them too, or like I've gotten
Speaker 1: something else done, like a nose job or whatever. And
Speaker 1: I feel exactly the same, lucky for me, like that
Speaker 1: was something that I got done that could be reversed.
Speaker 1: You can't really reverse a nose job or something that
Speaker 1: is more like permanent change. And so I went and
Speaker 1: I got them taken out. So I had them for
Speaker 1: like two and a half years or something, and like
Speaker 1: I just felt a million bucks as soon as I
Speaker 1: walked out of that X plant surgery. It was just
Speaker 1: the weirdest period in my life. And like I look
Speaker 1: back and I'm like, why the fuck did I do that?
Speaker 1: But I just had to do it to learn that
Speaker 1: I was fine the way that I was before. A
Speaker 1: very expensive venture at that.
Speaker 2: How much did it cost for import and export? Was
Speaker 2: that what it's called? Implant? Yeah? Sorry, implant and X
Speaker 2: plant import an export?
Speaker 1: You know, we're not sifferent containers around here. It's different
Speaker 1: everywhere that you go, Like and this was, you know,
Speaker 1: eight years ago now, so I think like getting them
Speaker 1: done it was over ten grand, and then like same
Speaker 1: on the way on the export, Like it's the same
Speaker 1: because it's the same.
Speaker 2: I basically you've wasted twenty grand. Well you didn't, because
Speaker 2: you everything in life is either a blessing or a lesson,
Speaker 2: and you love the lesson. It costs your twenty grand
Speaker 2: to learn the fucking lesson. Oh yeah, but you learned
Speaker 2: the lesson that you don't need to enhance you know
Speaker 2: yourself to love yourself and I love that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I felt like a fucking idiot because I'd become
Speaker 1: friends with the practice manager of the plastic surgeons and luckily,
Speaker 1: like the only way that this whole explant or export
Speaker 1: happened was I had been speaking to Wade, who is
Speaker 1: my good friend and he owns a hair salon in Newcastle.
Speaker 1: I'd been winging to him for years that I don't
Speaker 1: feel right with these in me. And luckily the practice
Speaker 1: manager had gone in to get her hair done by Wade,
Speaker 1: because I would never have the balls to say to
Speaker 1: the plastic surgeon's place like can we reverse this? Yeah,
Speaker 1: But thankfully my friend Wade just randomly brought it up
Speaker 1: when she was getting her hair done, like he just
Speaker 1: said to her, Oh, it's like Brittany with her boobs
Speaker 1: and wanting to get them out kind of thing. And
Speaker 1: I was like, wait, why did you fucking say that?
Speaker 1: But at the same time, thank you so much, because
Speaker 1: then she contacted me and said what the fuck, Like,
Speaker 1: why haven't you contacted me? And I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: too scared to say I don't like this.
Speaker 2: Anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, So shout out to Wade, because I would
Speaker 1: still have them if you didn't say anything. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's my little story on plastic surgery, and I'm here
Speaker 1: to advocate for changing your mind about things.
Speaker 2: Mm hm. And also I think as we move further
Speaker 2: into life, I think I mean, as I said, never
Speaker 2: want to comment on anyone's bodies, never want to. I
Speaker 2: don't care what you do with your body or what
Speaker 2: choices you make. As long as you're happy at the
Speaker 2: end of the day. That's what I feel should be
Speaker 2: most important. So if you have to do things to
Speaker 2: change yourself to make yourself happy, or to at least
Speaker 2: try and make yourself happy, because that's what you thought
Speaker 2: you were doing.
Speaker 1: I know. And then it's like, wait, this isn't it.
Speaker 2: Like I'm like, absolutely, go for it to land wherever
Speaker 2: you need to land, to just be satisfied and happy
Speaker 2: with who you are, because I, as I've said before,
Speaker 2: have been on my own journey with that as well.
Speaker 2: And once you get to that place, like, it's so rewarding.
Speaker 2: But what I will say is that I think we're
Speaker 2: moving into a timeline of actually embracing your natural self.
Speaker 2: And remember we were talking on this podcast about Pamela Anderson,
Speaker 2: you know, going makeup free and showing her age and
Speaker 2: showing the lines and the skin.
Speaker 1: It just really shows you that everything is kind of
Speaker 1: a trend as well. Like I feel like people still
Speaker 1: obviously get breast implants now, but I feel like that
Speaker 1: was a really big trend like back in those days.
Speaker 1: And then I feel like maybe five years ago or
Speaker 1: four years ago, bbls were the thing to get, and
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm seeing less and less of that now.
Speaker 1: And what I'm seeing now is come with me to
Speaker 1: get my lip filler dissolved. Like I'm seeing so much
Speaker 1: of that. So everything is a trend. So my advice
Speaker 1: to anyone out there is if you are considering getting
Speaker 1: something done, like have a really good think about it
Speaker 1: and speak with people about it. I just went on
Speaker 1: a whim like, yeah, I'm gonna go get them done now.
Speaker 1: I didn't really talk to anyone about it, but like,
Speaker 1: have a thing. Is this something that I actually really
Speaker 1: want to do? Am I just jumping on a trend?
Speaker 1: Am I trying to feel a void in my life
Speaker 1: that maybe a pair of implants isn't going to fill, Like,
Speaker 1: you know, I think you need to like really think
Speaker 1: about it, especially if it is one that's kind of irreversible,
Speaker 1: because yeah, I'm all for, like, do whatever the fuck
Speaker 1: you want with your body and your face and whatever,
Speaker 1: but also just like take your time with it and
Speaker 1: don't jump into it because you very well could regret
Speaker 1: it like I did.
Speaker 2: And I would love to see Christina Aguilera embrace the natural.
Speaker 2: As I said, it's hard for me to talk about
Speaker 2: this because I'm like, do whatever you want to do,
Speaker 2: don't really care. But also I'm like, you know, imagine
Speaker 2: how empowering it would be to see her with no
Speaker 2: work done and no lip filler and you know whatever.
Speaker 2: We don't know what she's gotten done. But I mean,
Speaker 2: as you said, she looks twenty years younger than she is,
Speaker 2: which good on her. Love that for her. I think
Speaker 2: like we're moving into that new era of like embracing
Speaker 2: your age. Or maybe it's just because I'm getting older,
Speaker 2: maybe the kids are still getting all the bbls.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why people get so mad about it as well,
Speaker 1: because maybe back to the conversation about how celebrities have
Speaker 1: this access to things that we simply never will maybe
Speaker 1: it comes from a place of spite of like, why
Speaker 1: does she get to look twenty years old when I'm
Speaker 1: also forty three and I feel like I'm aging, and
Speaker 1: you know how everyone like society like makes us think
Speaker 1: that aging's terrible and you look ugly and whatever. But
Speaker 1: I fucking put up a story of aj On Saturday
Speaker 1: night we went out for dinner. I did a little
Speaker 1: photo of him at the table and you can see
Speaker 1: all these gray hairs all around, and everyone was messaging me,
Speaker 1: going silver fox, silver fox, Like why does he get
Speaker 1: called a silver fucking fox? But then I feel like women,
Speaker 1: if you've got some gray hair, people are like, oh
Speaker 1: you're grandma.
Speaker 2: Yeah, society, men, cooked men, patriarchy. We don't have time,
Speaker 2: and this is not the podcast for this, so let's
Speaker 2: wrap this shit up. You want to say your line.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's another episode, done and dusted.
Speaker 2: Thanks for listening, scrollers. We love yah. And by the way,
Speaker 2: we didn't even mention because it's been weeks since we
Speaker 2: actually won the award of People's Choice Radio Today award.
Speaker 2: We won fucking one, So thanks for voting for Ustion Noises. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think the problem was you. I was away, you

Speaker 2: but we actually haven't spoken about it. Thank you for

Speaker 1: Getting up on a stage and accepting any kind of

Speaker 1: I am going headfirst down. Then. Oh that's a fear
Speaker 1: of mine.
