00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:24,561
Speaker 1: Apod Shake Production. Welcome back to another episode of Am

2
00:00:24,561 --> 00:00:29,921
Speaker 1: I A Bad Mom? Podcast? Something funny happened that I

3
00:00:30,041 --> 00:00:32,841
Speaker 1: wanted to bring up before we get into today's topic,

4
00:00:33,481 --> 00:00:37,961
Speaker 1: because we were at your house for a photo shoot

5
00:00:38,001 --> 00:00:40,241
Speaker 1: that you and Sam were doing. And so what happened

6
00:00:40,321 --> 00:00:43,601
Speaker 1: is you had gone off with the videographer to do

7
00:00:43,681 --> 00:00:45,401
Speaker 1: a bit of filming and I was setting up the

8
00:00:45,441 --> 00:00:48,801
Speaker 1: next shot. Okay, this is great, and your two girls

9
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:49,961
Speaker 1: were at home.

10
00:00:50,241 --> 00:00:51,681
Speaker 2: Yeah, you were with the girls.

11
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,161
Speaker 1: So I said to Elsie, I was like, do you

12
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,041
Speaker 1: have like a spray and white because where we were

13
00:00:57,081 --> 00:00:58,761
Speaker 1: going to have the shot, there was a bit of

14
00:00:58,801 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: bird poo on the deck and I was like, oh,

15
00:01:01,321 --> 00:01:03,441
Speaker 1: that's not going to look great. I'll just clean it off.

16
00:01:04,001 --> 00:01:07,161
Speaker 1: And Elsie looked at me and she went, oh, yeah, yeah,

17
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,441
Speaker 1: here go and passed me a spraym wipe. She went

18
00:01:10,721 --> 00:01:13,921
Speaker 1: what do you need it for? And I went, oh,

19
00:01:13,961 --> 00:01:17,041
Speaker 1: I'm just going to clean off some birdpool off the

20
00:01:17,081 --> 00:01:22,241
Speaker 1: back deck. And she looked at me with the funniest

21
00:01:22,601 --> 00:01:28,481
Speaker 1: face and when did Mom ask you to do that?

22
00:01:28,761 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: And it was almost like I could see her little

23
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: brain ticking over. It was like Mums invited her friend

24
00:01:35,161 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: over and asked her to clean the birdpool off the deck.

25
00:01:40,801 --> 00:01:43,601
Speaker 2: She probably was like, I can't believe my mum's asked

26
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: you to clean bird pool off our decks. So embarrassing

27
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:48,201
Speaker 2: she asked you to.

28
00:01:49,681 --> 00:01:53,361
Speaker 1: Sorry, Kay, It's almost almost like I could almost feel

29
00:01:53,361 --> 00:01:57,201
Speaker 1: that she felt embarrassed. She was like, sorry, sorry that

30
00:01:57,281 --> 00:02:11,201
Speaker 1: your mom's got you cleaning. Am I a bad mum

31
00:02:11,401 --> 00:02:15,921
Speaker 1: for not educating them? In general, I feel like we

32
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,441
Speaker 1: have touched on this subject many, many years ago, and

33
00:02:19,481 --> 00:02:24,561
Speaker 1: now I'm revisiting it all these years on because I

34
00:02:24,601 --> 00:02:27,681
Speaker 1: had a conversation. This was around Easter. So we're chatting

35
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,921
Speaker 1: about Easter and what Easter means, and I'm no expert.

36
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,841
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know how much I can contribute to this.

37
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,601
Speaker 1: There are certain things that I know we do around Easter.

38
00:02:40,881 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: For example, on Good Friday we eat fish. I'm unsure

39
00:02:45,361 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: completely about why, but I think it's something to do

40
00:02:48,041 --> 00:02:54,001
Speaker 1: with red meat and Jesus and so out of respect,

41
00:02:54,561 --> 00:02:58,081
Speaker 1: we have fish on a Friday. On Good Friday, I

42
00:02:58,081 --> 00:03:01,841
Speaker 1: was having this conversation with the girls and Amelia turned

43
00:03:01,841 --> 00:03:04,881
Speaker 1: around and she went, I've been going to a ca

44
00:03:05,121 --> 00:03:09,681
Speaker 1: Flick school for twelve years and I don't know the

45
00:03:09,761 --> 00:03:12,401
Speaker 1: difference between God and Jesus.

46
00:03:13,121 --> 00:03:18,961
Speaker 2: I was like, you're like this, okay, so how's religion?

47
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: And she goes and who's Mary? And how does Mary fit?

48
00:03:25,921 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, Yes, you've been going

49
00:03:28,561 --> 00:03:32,921
Speaker 1: to a calic school for twelve years. And also you've

50
00:03:32,921 --> 00:03:37,081
Speaker 1: been doing religion almost every day, especially in high school.

51
00:03:37,521 --> 00:03:39,441
Speaker 1: Like the amount of religion they do, like I have

52
00:03:39,561 --> 00:03:42,121
Speaker 1: definitely questioned whether they should have been doing more math,

53
00:03:44,281 --> 00:03:48,481
Speaker 1: Like how is religion so frequent? I know, but also

54
00:03:49,361 --> 00:03:52,401
Speaker 1: how are you not knowing that stuff? Like I feel

55
00:03:52,441 --> 00:03:54,481
Speaker 1: like I've got a bit of an excuse. I didn't

56
00:03:54,521 --> 00:03:57,241
Speaker 1: go to a religious school. I went to a state school. Yes,

57
00:03:57,361 --> 00:04:00,161
Speaker 1: so I'm like, okay, there's my excuse for not, you know,

58
00:04:00,281 --> 00:04:03,401
Speaker 1: being fully educated on it. You've got no excuse. She'd

59
00:04:03,441 --> 00:04:04,921
Speaker 1: been going to that school for twelve years.

60
00:04:05,361 --> 00:04:08,481
Speaker 2: What is she doing during the religion like sessions that

61
00:04:08,521 --> 00:04:10,441
Speaker 2: they go to every day?

62
00:04:11,321 --> 00:04:16,801
Speaker 1: But they also online shopping putting stuff on deepop so

63
00:04:16,881 --> 00:04:20,801
Speaker 1: they were allowed at school to listen to their music

64
00:04:20,961 --> 00:04:23,121
Speaker 1: like they work with Spotify playing.

65
00:04:23,401 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do know that because Gracie has pushed the

66
00:04:28,921 --> 00:04:31,281
Speaker 2: envelope of that a few times and going I need

67
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,361
Speaker 2: my own account, and I was like, no, well I

68
00:04:33,521 --> 00:04:36,161
Speaker 2: pay for the family account so that we can all

69
00:04:36,281 --> 00:04:38,601
Speaker 2: use the family account. No, well, I don't want to

70
00:04:38,641 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 2: be classified as kid. I sorry class family, I said, sorry,

71
00:04:43,601 --> 00:04:47,041
Speaker 2: I'm you twelve weird. But at the same time she

72
00:04:47,081 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: does the same thing. So it must be like a

73
00:04:48,721 --> 00:04:52,441
Speaker 2: high school thing. Yeah, but we just not have Spotify, right,

74
00:04:52,521 --> 00:04:55,681
Speaker 2: we didn't have Spotify. No, so we didn't have streaming,

75
00:04:55,761 --> 00:04:58,561
Speaker 2: so when people like people knew that when we were

76
00:04:58,561 --> 00:05:01,281
Speaker 2: listening to music at school, teachers would know because we'd

77
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 2: have like, you know, the ear pieces in and chords everywhere,

78
00:05:05,121 --> 00:05:07,561
Speaker 2: and your discman was skipping and you.

79
00:05:07,801 --> 00:05:10,161
Speaker 1: Didn't feel like you were allowed just only discom in

80
00:05:10,201 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: a class. I didn't remember, not in class.

81
00:05:13,121 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: No. I remember being on a bus and like if

82
00:05:17,561 --> 00:05:19,601
Speaker 2: we were to and from like stuff, we were allowed

83
00:05:19,601 --> 00:05:21,801
Speaker 2: to use it on a bus, but then it'd be like, no,

84
00:05:21,961 --> 00:05:24,161
Speaker 2: not allowed to bring anything with you, like camps and

85
00:05:24,201 --> 00:05:28,281
Speaker 2: stuff like that. Kids these days don't understand. They don't

86
00:05:28,281 --> 00:05:29,521
Speaker 2: have enough appreciation.

87
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,081
Speaker 1: No. I think this is also going back to what

88
00:05:33,121 --> 00:05:35,561
Speaker 1: we always talk about in that we don't allow them

89
00:05:35,561 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: to be bored like you're supposed to be bored in math.

90
00:05:38,121 --> 00:05:39,561
Speaker 1: Aren't you're supposed.

91
00:05:39,241 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: To be when your brain is actually going to explore

92
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,561
Speaker 2: that idea of maths.

93
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,241
Speaker 1: Yeah, for me, that constant music playing is the need

94
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,641
Speaker 1: for something to be constantly happening. Yeah, I don't know

95
00:05:49,721 --> 00:05:52,241
Speaker 1: how well you study with music. I don't think I

96
00:05:52,281 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: could concentrate with music playing in my ears.

97
00:05:55,481 --> 00:05:56,201
Speaker 2: But I know.

98
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,121
Speaker 1: But this is the weird part.

99
00:05:58,201 --> 00:06:00,161
Speaker 2: I'm going to throw my brother under the bus here.

100
00:06:00,601 --> 00:06:03,561
Speaker 2: So Luke, you know, he works for himself. He has

101
00:06:03,601 --> 00:06:06,601
Speaker 2: his own business. He has like days where he goes.

102
00:06:06,641 --> 00:06:08,081
Speaker 2: I just don't want to be at my desk. I

103
00:06:08,121 --> 00:06:10,881
Speaker 2: want to just go into a cafe. I want to

104
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,721
Speaker 2: sit and have a delicious coffee. Yeah.

105
00:06:12,761 --> 00:06:14,561
Speaker 1: He has a lot of cafe time, I feel like.

106
00:06:15,161 --> 00:06:18,361
Speaker 2: Right, And he sits there and like tap tap tap tap,

107
00:06:18,361 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: taps away on his laptop and at the same time

108
00:06:22,841 --> 00:06:26,921
Speaker 2: has his air pods in. And I questioned him numerous

109
00:06:26,921 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: times and was like, but how do you have music

110
00:06:29,481 --> 00:06:32,321
Speaker 2: going while you're doing this, because in my head I'm

111
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,801
Speaker 2: going that's all too much. He has something on Spotify

112
00:06:36,961 --> 00:06:40,841
Speaker 2: called Cafe Background Noises. It's a fucking playlist that just

113
00:06:40,921 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: has noise in the background.

114
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,761
Speaker 1: The sound of the actual cafe a fake cafe. This

115
00:06:47,921 --> 00:06:49,481
Speaker 1: is a real cafe.

116
00:06:49,561 --> 00:06:52,401
Speaker 2: So he's sitting in a real cafe with real people

117
00:06:52,641 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: with real noises, but has his air pods in on

118
00:06:55,681 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 2: a Spotify playlist of cafe background noise, because he said,

119
00:07:01,121 --> 00:07:03,921
Speaker 2: what happens is too many people come around him, like

120
00:07:04,041 --> 00:07:07,041
Speaker 2: sitting next to him, in around him when he's working away.

121
00:07:07,041 --> 00:07:10,041
Speaker 2: He said, I start to just listen to their conversations

122
00:07:10,521 --> 00:07:12,921
Speaker 2: and try and be like, oh gosh, oh I could

123
00:07:12,961 --> 00:07:15,001
Speaker 2: problem solve that. That would be easily done by this

124
00:07:15,041 --> 00:07:16,761
Speaker 2: and this and this, and so he said, I get

125
00:07:16,961 --> 00:07:20,881
Speaker 2: so sidetracked with everyone else's conversations, but I still want

126
00:07:20,881 --> 00:07:22,881
Speaker 2: the cafe noise. So I put my AirPods in and

127
00:07:22,921 --> 00:07:27,241
Speaker 2: have a cafe noise background playlist. Oh, it just sounds

128
00:07:27,281 --> 00:07:28,361
Speaker 2: so fucked up to me.

129
00:07:28,801 --> 00:07:30,721
Speaker 1: I was like, why do you just go home and

130
00:07:30,761 --> 00:07:34,361
Speaker 1: sit in the Star office then and listen to anyone's conversation.

131
00:07:34,441 --> 00:07:37,481
Speaker 2: Yeah. So maybe we could get some cafe background noise

132
00:07:37,881 --> 00:07:40,761
Speaker 2: for our children and that would help them study a

133
00:07:40,801 --> 00:07:41,481
Speaker 2: bit more and.

134
00:07:41,481 --> 00:07:44,361
Speaker 1: Learn about the ground noises and they can sit in

135
00:07:44,401 --> 00:07:47,761
Speaker 1: a real classroom with a classroom playlist on listen to

136
00:07:47,801 --> 00:07:49,961
Speaker 1: a fake classroom whilst in a real classroom.

137
00:07:52,801 --> 00:07:56,641
Speaker 2: You see how messeduff it sounds. Yeah, but that might

138
00:07:56,641 --> 00:07:58,041
Speaker 2: help them focus on religion.

139
00:07:58,401 --> 00:08:01,921
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like being my office like sorry, Like, yeah,

140
00:08:01,961 --> 00:08:04,361
Speaker 1: you're still blown away. I'm blown away by this because

141
00:08:04,401 --> 00:08:06,801
Speaker 1: it's like being in an office and listening to an

142
00:08:06,801 --> 00:08:10,761
Speaker 1: office sound effects playlist. Yes, being in a real office

143
00:08:11,041 --> 00:08:15,241
Speaker 1: with real office noises listening to a fake office.

144
00:08:15,361 --> 00:08:17,641
Speaker 2: See, I told you, I said this. I had the

145
00:08:17,681 --> 00:08:19,841
Speaker 2: same conversation to He was like, you just don't understand

146
00:08:19,921 --> 00:08:23,721
Speaker 2: till you tried it. Okay, So I tried it. I

147
00:08:23,841 --> 00:08:27,841
Speaker 2: was still like, in my head, I still felt weird

148
00:08:27,961 --> 00:08:30,721
Speaker 2: as shit because I'm looking and there's people around me,

149
00:08:30,761 --> 00:08:33,161
Speaker 2: but I just have like this background like clunk clunk

150
00:08:33,161 --> 00:08:36,561
Speaker 2: clunkin like just noise of like a cafe, but I'm

151
00:08:36,601 --> 00:08:40,081
Speaker 2: watching people. But all it does is drown out your conversations.

152
00:08:40,201 --> 00:08:42,761
Speaker 1: But that would have me also a little bit on edge.

153
00:08:43,001 --> 00:08:46,081
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why, because I feel like if

154
00:08:46,121 --> 00:08:49,601
Speaker 1: you can't hear the real sounds of what's going on, like,

155
00:08:49,681 --> 00:08:52,761
Speaker 1: you could be in a dangerous situation. Imagine if someone

156
00:08:52,801 --> 00:08:56,761
Speaker 1: came in, like armed or something. Imagine if something happened

157
00:08:56,841 --> 00:09:01,201
Speaker 1: like or the fire alarm goes off or something something happens,

158
00:09:01,561 --> 00:09:03,601
Speaker 1: and you're in your own little world, listening to your

00:09:07,041 --> 00:09:09,121
Speaker 1: that's happening in your own cafe because you can't hear it.

161
00:09:09,401 --> 00:09:12,001
Speaker 2: Because I hope that, yeah, I was gonna say, I

162
00:09:12,001 --> 00:09:14,241
Speaker 2: hope that your eyes would come up and look around

163
00:09:14,321 --> 00:09:15,841
Speaker 2: and go, wow, that man's got a gun.

164
00:09:16,001 --> 00:09:17,881

165
00:09:17,601 --> 00:09:19,961
Speaker 2: Oh wow, those kids are running out of here. Maybe

166
00:09:19,961 --> 00:09:24,401
Speaker 2: there's a fire. The positive is that in this playlist

167
00:09:24,441 --> 00:09:28,081
Speaker 2: of cafe noise while sitting in a real cafe, there's

168

171
00:09:37,041 --> 00:09:40,081
Speaker 1: They're not adding that to that place, not in that playlist.

172
00:09:41,041 --> 00:09:43,401
Speaker 2: So you could put them in, put your noise canceling on,

173
00:09:43,681 --> 00:09:46,001
Speaker 2: still see the kids having a full meltdown, but not

174
