Speaker 2: the deep and meaningful things and whatnot on those walks.

19
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 2: So I was actually more excited for this Close Friends

20
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: episode than I guess the main episode with you because

21
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 2: now we can just talk about whatever we want. Ye

22
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: and we're both turning thirty this year, as I've discussed

23
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: plenty of times on this Partty, and I was saying

24
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: a few weeks ago that I'm doing the quiet celebrating

25
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 2: thing this year.

26
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: Which I was so shocked by. For you, I was like,

27
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: this does not feel on brand.

28
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, I'm keeping things mysterious.

29
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: Never let him know your next move.

30
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 2: No, And I'd love to be that person who keeps

31
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: their mouth shut, but unfortunately here I am. But you

32
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 2: are doing the opposite of me. Yes, you've decided on

33
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: a big bash.

34
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: Big party. Well, I kind of was in two minds

35
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: about it because I was really freaking out about turning thirty.

36
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 1: For a hot minute there, you know, I was like, well,

37
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: milestone birthdays just come with so much shit, for lack

38
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: of a better word, It's like, oh my god, you

39
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: reflect on everything that's happened in your life and where

40
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: am I meant to be? Where am I going? And

41
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: I was just gonna do something intimate, and then I thought, no,

42
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: I want to be the center of attention, and I

43
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: want to look really hot, and I want like all

44
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: the people that I love to be there, which of

45
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: course you can do in many different ways. But the

46
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: route that I'm taking is a big fuck off. Party

47
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: and it's a dress up.

48
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: Party, I know. And let me talk you through the

49
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 2: invitation because this was such a moment to receive this

50
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 2: invite was and I love when the invite is an

51
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: experience in itself because first of all, your legal name

52
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: literally is star Yes, but your middle name legally is

53
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: literally a niece. So your name is star Anie, which

54
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: is a spice, isn't it r?

55
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: It's a spice And no one ever believes me that

56
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: it's my real name. Like, It's got me a lot

57
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: of free drinks on a night out because I let

58
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: your name's not star a niece and I'm like, oh,

59
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: show you my fucking license, and you have to buy

60
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: me a drink and then I do it.

61
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 2: And I'm like, OK, hey, I think it's so funny

62
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: and it reminds me of when I was in high school.

63
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: There was a girl who transferred to her our school

64
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 2: and her name was Victoria, and I got to know her.

65
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 2: She was one of my friends only for a brief moment.

66
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: I think I was just trying to get to know

67
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 2: it because she was new to the school. I was

68
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 2: being nice because I was very nice, you know, and

69
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 2: very nice person. Somewhere down deep down inside, and she

70
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 2: was telling me. I said, Victoria. That's such a nice name.

71
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 2: I didn't we didn't have any other Victoria's at the

72
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 2: school and stuff. And I said, oh, you got any

73
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: brothers and sisters? She said yeah, I've got a brother

74
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: Daniel and another brother named Jack. And I went, oh, nice, nice.

75
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 2: And we had another girl in our group who had

76
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: like a bit of a stranger less common name. So

77
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: we just got onto like being you know, the name

78
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: or what were you going to be named? Because my

79
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: other name that my parents had picked for me was Thomas.

80
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: I was almost Thomas, but then I got Matthew, and

81
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 2: I'm glad. I don't feel Thomas. That is so weird.

82
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: I can't come Thomas. So anyway, and then I didn't

83
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: want to deal with the bullying of Thomas the ten

84
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 2: Kenjine or something true. I mean they called me the

85
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 2: fat controller. Anyways, I didn't work out in my favor.

86
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: But you know, we got onto the topic of that

87
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, yeah, what else were you

88
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 2: going to be named? Victoria? And she goes, oh, no,

89
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: my mum had our names picked out because she's an alcoholic. Oh,

90
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: so I'm Victoria after Victoria Bitter and then Jack Daniels Victoria,

91
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: Jack and Daniel. I thought that's iconic anyway, Oh, I

92
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 2: mean it's not iconic, but you know what I'm trying

93
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: to say. I mean, it's a funny story to tell

94
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: the Greend kids. Anyway. I hope they're doing well. The

95
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: point of the fact of the matter is your name,

96
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 2: star Anise, which is so unique. And I just have

97
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: to clarify. Any of your brothers or sisters named after

98
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 2: herds or spices.

99
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: No other herbs or spices, but I do give them

100
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: nicknames kind of along a spice rack. If you look

101
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: at your spice rack in your kitchen and you've got

102
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: a Paprika, I'm going to be calling my sister Paprika

103
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: because I thought we need a theme here. I'm a

104
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: Virgo and there's no cohesion across the names. They're all

105
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: fucking random. Can you not tell by my bloody birthday invitation?

106
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,239
Speaker 2: Let me have a look at it again.

107
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: I sent you a link to a Google form to

108
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: RSVP that is like textbook Virgo behavior.

109
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 2: That's right. I will have a look now at your

110
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,239
Speaker 2: invitation because I this whole time thought you were a libra.

111
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm on the huss Yeah, a burgo Libra.

112
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: Okay, you do give Libra energy. Sometimes I kind.

113
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: Of just read the horoscopes and go, yeah, I like

114
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: that one better. I'll be that one today.

115
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: Okay, this is the invitation. This is probably the most

116
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: iconic part. The first line, the first line of the invitation,

117
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 2: and this is what had me hooked, and I went,

118
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: this is gonna be to paint the picture for you.

119
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 2: There's a big disco ball, Hannah Montana, mean girls, all

120
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 2: those sorts of two thousand esque things are in the background,

121
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: and then Star's got this big you know, thirty flirty

122
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: and thriving. The first line says, thirty years ago, a

123
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 2: star was born.

124
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: Oh I just thought, can I need to star with

125
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: a double R?

126
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, A star I was born? And then it says

127
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 2: you're invited to come and celebrate the one and only

128
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 2: Star with an iconic night of good vibes, drinks and

129
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: a cheeky little boogie. And then it says the theme

130
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: is icons, and there's a quote saying an icon is

131
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 2: someone or something widely admired and recognized for their influence, style,

132
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: or achieved very US icon status.

133
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: I also made a Pinterest board with inspiration for costumes

134
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: for everyone too. So if you click through to the

135
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: Google form which is for RSVP, there's also a little

136
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: note there that says, here's some inspokes. I don't want

137
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: anyone to feel stressed about costumes.

138
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: So I'm trying to think of something in a little

139
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 2: weird because when I think icons, obviously, straight away I

140
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: go to things like Lady Gaga, you know, those sorts

141
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 2: of like pop stars. But I kind of want to

142
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 2: try and go a bit funny and scrollers. I'd love

143
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 2: your help with this. So the theme is obviously icons.

144
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: I'd love to go as an icon that is a

145
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 2: little bit left of field. The first one that came

146
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: to mind was like, I think it would be funny

147
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 2: if I went as like the Mona Lisa and just

148
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 2: had like a blank look on my face the whole time,

149
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 2: put my head in like a picture file around you,

150
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: or like Mother Teresa, and I'm like in a Nuns outfit.

151
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: Which is that even allowed these days? I'm not sure

152
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: Sister ex playing at the moment, they're getting a lot

153
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 2: of backlash because apparently there's a big mockery of like

154
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 2: Christianity and things like that. I thought, have you not

155
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 2: watched the movie? Did you not know what you were

156
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: signing up to? There must be a lot of There

157
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: must be a big community of people out there who

158
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 2: just go and see musicals and have no idea what

159
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: they're about. Because they seem to be getting every post

160
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 2: they put up. There's comments from people saying, left it

161
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: inter mission, what a described, it's not not nice, mockery

162
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: of Christianity, blah blah blahl. Come on, I thought, we

163
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 2: can't wait to see that. I got my tickets. I'm

164
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: going in a few weeks, so I'll have to give

165
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: you a review and tell you all in an episode

166
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 2: in the future whether it's worth seeing or not. But

167
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: I have high hopes. I think it'd be great. I

168
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: love Casey Donovan in anything. Yes, I fell in love

169
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: with her in nine to five and she did nine

170
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: to five the musical that was got.

171
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: The biggest standing of it.

172
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: Oh, she's phenomenal, she's amazing. She was born to do Broadway.

173
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: You're going big, I'm going small. I also have an

174
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 2: update for everyone on Fiji. Yes, so Fiji was meant

175
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: to happen the date that worked for all of us.

176
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: Everyone going was going to be the final week in September,

177
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: and that was where all our dates aligned were all

178
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 2: ready to go. I'm not sure what's going on in

179
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: Fiji at the moment. There might be a real serious

180
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: kind of aspect to it, because remember when all the

181
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: prices went up in Hawaii, and it was because the

182
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 2: locals in Hawaii were actually trying to divert tourists away.

183
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 2: They didn't want to risk coming to Hawaii because it

184
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: was ruining the wildlife, it was ruining the economy or

185
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 2: the rest of that. I'm not fully across what happened

186
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 2: over there, but the prices went up to try and

187
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 2: deter people from going to Hawaii because the locals didn't

188
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 2: want people there. I'm not sure what's going on in Fiji,

189
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 2: but we looked at prices to go and stay there

190
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 2: and it was just so ridiculous and so inflated compared

191
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 2: to because I used to like going to Fiji because

192
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 2: it would only cost you two or three grand. You

193
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: could go for a week. That's flight's accommodation and all inclusive,

194
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 2: your food, your drinks, your everything for the week, your transfer, yeah, everything,

195
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: I mean between two people, that's fifteen hundred dollars each

196
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: stunning week away, gorgeous weather, all the not far three

197
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 2: and a half hour flight, We're done looking. That was

198
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 2: only twelve months ago Sky and I last went, and

199
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: that's around how much it cost us to go and

200
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: do the same thing. We looked at the accommodation exactly

201
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 2: the same accommodation, not all inclusive. They've changed that, and

202
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 2: the lowest we could get it for a week was

203
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 2: six and a half thousand dollars. That's before flights, that's

204
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 2: before anything else, you know, and obviously hello cost of

205
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 2: living crisis. I just was like, I can't ask my

206
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: friends to come to VG. It's like destination wedding vibes.

207
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, I thought it was only going

208
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 2: to cost a couple grand. Everyone needs a holiday. Let's

209
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 2: just go for a week fabulous, And you know, I'd

210
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 2: pay for our transfers and make sure that, you know,

211
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: if we went out for dinners and stuff for my birthday,

212
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: like it's I don't worry my shout, I'm not. I

213
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: can't afford to get to pay your way to Fiji.

214
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 2: And so then I looked at things like Hamilton Island

215
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 2: as well and Port Douglas and thought maybe a few

216
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 2: nights away there everything sold out, and I think what's

217
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: happened is people have probably looked at Fiji thought the

218
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 2: same as me, a bit expensive, so we'll keep it

219
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: Australian and we'll go Hamilton Island. I think everyone had

220
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: the same idea. And now there's nothing available up there

221
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: in that week of September and no other dates work

222
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 2: for everyone, so canceled. That's the update. That's update on that.

223
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: I know everyone was very excited about the whole thing.

224
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: I had lots of people asking about what's happening with

225
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 2: Fiji over the last few weeks because I said I

226
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: was sorting that out once my tour was done. But

227
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: I just don't think we can make it work and

228
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: I just can't expect people to spend that much to

229
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: come away.

230
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: You should have a look at the Cook Islands. I

231
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: went there in March. Was really is it school holidays? Maybe?

232
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 2: Is that?

233
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: Why?

234
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 2: Oh potentially you might be on with that. You might

235
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 2: be on with that. But yeah, we looked at the

236
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 2: Cook Islands because they are beautiful as well.

237
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: It amazing.

238
00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 2: The other thing as well, though the only way to

239
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: get there is I was concerned was jet stuck and

240
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 2: I just I just am not at a point in

241
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 2: my life where I can trust them. Due to not

242
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 2: being able to trust them in the past, I've had

243
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 2: flights just absolutely canceled and the whole trip is I

244
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: can't do that anymore.

245
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: I must say the flight there is pretty rough as well,

246
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: because it's an overnight one and it's like six and

247
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: a half hours, and I know that's like how long

248
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: it takes to get to Balley, but it was just

249
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: the timing. I think we boarded the flight at like

250
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: nine thirty ten PM and I was with my niece

251
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: and so I got an empty seat next to me

252
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: on the plane, but didn't matter because there's a five

253
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: year old next to me sticking her foot into my

254
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: back for the entire time. And I know how you

255
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: feel about aisle seats and window seats, but I got

256
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: stuck on the aisle seat, and as someone with long

257
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: legs who's trying to sleep on a flight, that doesn't

258
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,599
Speaker 1: really work because every time someone walks past with the

259
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: trolley or just a person, you get your knee knocked

260
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: and you're, God, what's happening. So yeah, the flight was

261
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: a bit rough. I don't really see you on a

262
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: jet staff flight. I don't know. I don't think that

263
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: makes sense, especially if there's no business class, if a

264
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: little eight three thirty seven or whatever.

265
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I'm not riding off Jet Star like they're

266
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 2: not so bad that I think like the worst. They

267
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: can't be as bad as Tiger. Sorry Tiger really was

268
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 2: around No and no wonder because it was it was,

269
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,839
Speaker 2: it was not It wasn't even an experience. I mean,

270
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 2: what I paid nineteen dollars for the flight to Melbourne,

271
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: what do I expect? But yeah, no, Jetstar. I will

272
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 2: admit I haven't given them the time of day in

273
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: the last however many years. So perhaps they're better than

274
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 2: they once were, but I just don't like how they got.

275
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 2: They weigh your bags when you board the flights, where your.

276
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: Cameras for I went up to Brucebane the other week

277
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: and I had layers and layers on, even though it

278
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: was funny flights, sticky and hot in the airport, because

279
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want to cop the one

280
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: hundred doors feet whatever it is when you get to

281
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: the gate and they will weigh your bags as well,

282
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: and I had like my little side bag under my

283
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 1: blazer trying to be really dodgy and really so I'm like,

284
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: just let me on the plane.

285
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 2: I know. Last time I got a jet Star flight,

286
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 2: I had to put my laptop in my pants so

287
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: that the two my MacBook is like, you know, four

288
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: kilos in itself, I've got seven. Can't stuff around.

289
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: But anyway, but Matt, how do you back to thirtieth birthdays?

290
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: How do you feel about turning thirty?

291
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm fine. I'm not one of those people who

292
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 2: are like, oh my god, I'm getting so old. I

293
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: will say twenty nine has been the first year of

294
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 2: my life where I've started to feel my body deteriorating,

295
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: like start random pains. Yeah, but I've also it's probably

296
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 2: my own fault because I'm in my clubbing era, as

297
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 2: you know, and I'm absolutely loving it. I'm still loving it.

298
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,839
Speaker 2: I actually saw this TikTok the other day. Let me

299
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 2: play this one for you. I was gonna talk about

300
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 2: this in the main episode with Britney, but seeing as

301
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 2: you're here, like it makes more sense now. But haven't

302
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: listened to this because I have a rebuttal. I was

303
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 2: actually gonna make a TikTok replying to this girl, but

304
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 2: then I thought, no, I better not, but we'll talk

305
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 2: about here instead.

306
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: People that are over the age of twenty five that

307
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: still think the clubbing is a good idea?

308
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: Is everything all good? Is everything okay? Back home? Are

309
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 2: you saying that enjoyable? What the fuck is this here doing?

310
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 2: If there's nowhere for me to sit, I'm not coming.

311
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: If the music's too loud, I'm not coming.

312
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 2: If there's anyone under the age of twenty five, you

313
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: guessed it, I'm not coming. And I have fun clubbing anymore.

314
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 2: I don't know will do Hey? You know what, No,

315
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: I have to disagree. I shout out. I'll give you

316
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: a shout out. Whoever that was, let me have a

317
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 2: look Madison. Her name is Hi Madison. Thank you for

318
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 2: your TikTok. Love that it spoke to me on the

319
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 2: for you page. But in all the wrong reasons. I

320
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 2: am an advocate of the complete opposite, turning thirty absolutely

321
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: encouraging everyone to go out clubbing. First of all, support

322
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 2: local business, you know, inject some money into the economy.

323
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 2: It's first and foremost, but secutive all like I think,

324
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 2: it depends on where you're going. Of course, I'm going

325
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 2: to gay clubs, so it's my community. I feel very good,

326
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 2: very at home. It's very fun and there's nothing quite

327
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: like a dance. That is what I'm there for. I'm

328
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 2: there to let my hair down, have a dance. And

329
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 2: I think, as well, it's all about your attitude, I

330
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: will say, as you know, you're asking how I'm feeling

331
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: about turning thirty, I am noticing that the closer I

332
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 2: get to thirty, the more fucks are going out the window.

333
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 2: I just care less and less and less and a

334
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 2: more nonchalant about so many things. When I go to

335
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 2: the club, I do not care about being judged. I

336
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: think that's what I mean about. It's your attitude. If

337
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: you're going and you feel judged, or you feel out

338
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 2: of place or any of that, I'm like, even if

339
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 2: that's the vibe in the room, not gonna affect me

340
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: from having a good night. Life's too short to not

341
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 2: go out and have the time of your life every

342
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 2: time you go out. And so I like me and

343
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: my friend who I go out with, he's the same.

344
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: We're just like, we don't care what anyone thinks. Let's

345
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 2: just dance how we want to dance, do what we

346
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: want to do, and as long as we have a

347
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 2: good night. Who cares what everyone else thinks and if

348
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: everyone else is judging and all the rest of that,

349
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: and it's just fun and it's funny. On Saturday night,

350
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 2: I was in the toilets in the club and I'd

351
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: gone to the toilet and then come out and I

352
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 2: thought I was washing my hands, and there were you know,

353
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 2: people were pushing in in the line, and I thought, well,

354
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 2: I'll take it upon myself to be security. I stood

355
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 2: there for a good forty minutes directing traffic in the toilets, saying,

356
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: you keep it for three place. Boys have fun in there,

357
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: and you know, sorting out where everyone else was going.

358
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: And I had the time of my life. People were like, min,

359
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 2: you're on the dance floor. I said, I'm actually having

360
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 2: so much fun in here. And every person who came

361
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 2: in I met, I introduced myself. We had a great chat.

362
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 2: You know.

363
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: And in movies, a person who like passes the hand towel. Yeah, yeah,

364
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: I wish.

365
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 2: I've got some tips, you know.

366
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: But anyway, well, we actually went to Home Bar together

367
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, and look, I think, yes,

368
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: your attitude is very important, but also where you're going.

369
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: Because I had a visceral reaction walking into Home bar,

370
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: because I think it's probably been at least ten years

371
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: since I've been in there, and the floor was as

372
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: sticky as you remember. I think the weirdest thing for

373
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: me was being around that many people in an enclosed space,

374
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: Like I haven't experienced that feeling in a long time.

375
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: And I've actually been inspired by you this year to

376
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 1: go out and have a little bit more fun, because

377
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: you do kind of like just get into your little

378
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: bubble and become quite reserved. But I think it was good.

379
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 1: It was good to go there, and especially I don't

380
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 1: really drink that much anymore as well, whereas when I

381
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: was eighteen, I was going home by blood. He had

382
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: like twelve double blacks at Praise before I even get there. Yeah,

383
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: so walking in there sober is a completely different experience

384
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: because everyone else is lip so no one has their

385
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: inhibitions about them, and it kind of just like you

386
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: have permission to just do that as well, and you

387
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: don't need to be on their level from like a

388
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: drinking perspective to be able to do that. You can

389
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 1: just make the most of it and embrace it for

390
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: what it's worth. But I will say There was one

391
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: time in that night where we went in for this

392
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: little quiet area just to have a little sit down,

393
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 1: you know, just a little breather, and we were surrounded,

394
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: but we looked around at all the people in the

395
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: room were like, oh fuck, these people are literally like eighteen.

396
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 1: And I remember being eighteen and being in those clubs

397
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: and be like older people over there, like I don't

398
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 1: necessarily think we look the part and that's it, but

399
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa it bloody goes quick, doesn't it.

400
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 2: And the funniest thing about those people that were in

401
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: that quiet room was there were about five of them

402
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 2: in the conversation and all of them were talking at once,

403
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: yeah one another, but having a conversation that was absolutely flowing.

404
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 2: And I remember looking at Star and we were sitting

405
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 2: right next to them, so we could hear what they

406
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 2: were saying, but because they were all talking, we couldn't

407
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 2: hear what they were saying. And I said to Star,

408
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 2: I cannot believe, like I'm exhausted just trying to keep

409
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 2: up with that conversation. Yet all of them were so

410
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,239
Speaker 2: on board and understood exactly what was happening. And I

411
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 2: just thought, God to be young again, to be young

412
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 2: and be whirling like that. And also the fact that

413
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: everyone's in flat shoes. Oh my god, okay, sneakers.

414
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: We need to talk about this. Where are the big

415
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: fat high heels, the Jeffrey Campbell leaders that I used

416
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: to wear until five o'clock in the morning when I

417
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: was eighteen. You look around home nightclob everyone's wearing bloody

418
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: sambers or little Nike Nike flats and sneakers.

419
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

420
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: I love that for you, But also you gotta where's

421
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 1: the cannon event of having to wear giant high heels.

422
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 2: I know, I know, I wonder what.

423
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: That's going to do to the authotics industry, you know,

424
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: because these kids are growing up with, you know, wearing

425
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: sturdy shoes going out. Did I tress everywhere? They're out

426
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: of business?

427
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: Just another way to ruin the economy. Yeah. So I

428
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 2: have no qualms with turning thirty. How are you having

429
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: an existential crisis? Yet?

430
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: I definitely go through phases. I think now I feel

431
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: more excited. I think every year that I grow, I

432
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: get to know myself better. I become all confident and

433
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: I kind of, like you said, give less fucks about

434
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: what people think. But I think the added layer for

435
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: me definitely, like being a woman in society is hard

436
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: because there is that expectation and pressure on you and

437
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: being in a long term relationship as well.

438
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 2: Ever, friend's like, oh, you.

439
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: Know, when's when you're gonna get married and when you're

440
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 1: gonna have a kid, And I'm like, can everyone just

441
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: fucking leave me alone for a second here? I am

442
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: I kind of in my prime right now. You know,

443
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: Work's gone really well. I'm like doing all the things

444
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: that I love doing, and so that's always definitely like

445
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: kind of in the back of my mind about turning thirty,

446
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: But that's more so a meat is shue and some

447
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: things that I need to work through and process, and

448
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 1: I thought the best way to do that is to

449
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: have a big fuck off party. I think, so well,

450
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: why not? Why not just send it and if you

451
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: want to wear your Jeffrey Campbell's scrollers, if you want

452
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: to come dm me, I'll fucking invite everyone.

453
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 2: Honestly, got to hit the bar.

454
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I bring some cash with you because there's

455
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 1: a minimum spend on the night.

456
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 2: Well what about home bar having the sign? Yes, it

457
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 2: said if you pay cash, the drinks are cheaper.

458
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, like full of laminated sign like not even like

459
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: a little dodgy dodge from the from the bartends. It's

460
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: like if you pay cash, it said, want cheaper drinks,

461
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 1: pay cash, there's an ATM downstairs. Yeah, I didn't bring

462
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: my card. I've got my Apple Pay.

463
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 2: Sorry.
