<v Speaker 1>myself and it was something that I did when I

0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:35.920
<v Speaker 1>was fourteen, and I haven't thought about it until this

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.240
<v Speaker 1>very moment, but now it all makes sense.

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:42.560

<v Speaker 1>Good morning you.

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Elas Scrollers.

0:00:58.880 --> 0:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>How are you hello? Friends?

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 2>Welcome? I have a question for you, Yeah, because you

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>do some random stuff online, but I feel like I

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>saw something a little bit more random than usual. Yeah,

0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 2>who the fuck? Were you with it outdoor in your

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.040
<v Speaker 2>sporting uniforms?

0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:20.319
<v Speaker 1>The team?

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Who were they?

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.679
<v Speaker 1>The Wallaroos rugby Union.

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 2>I need to know how that came about? How did

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 2>that cross over?

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I loved it. That was just so out of the blue.

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>And if you haven't seen it, it's on like my

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Instagram and TikTok. I just did a couple of collab

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>videos with the Wallaroo's team the reason, and everyone in

0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>the comments is like, this is the most unexpected collab

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>of the century. But also, and I'll tell you what

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>after that, I also had a netball team, like one

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 1>of the famous netball teams in Australia. So I'm in

0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 1>my sporting year. Yeah, okay, so how that came about

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 1>is so outdo is mine and AJ's cafe in Newcastle

0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 1>next to our fate store. Surely everyone knows that by now,

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 1>But even still people go, wait, you own a cafe.

0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Well, I mean even reading your book, you didn't

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:19.520
<v Speaker 2>mention your cafe in your book.

0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.119
<v Speaker 1>I do mention it like a bit in the very

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 1>first chapter. Actually, thank you very much. Really, I say,

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.560
<v Speaker 1>like picture this, you own a cafe, blah blah blah

0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 1>blah blah. Yeah, but I didn't do like a whole

0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>segment about it. But anyway, it's our cafe, and our

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 1>cafe is on King Street in Newcastle, next to our

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:39.919
<v Speaker 1>Fate store, and right next to us is a big

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.959
<v Speaker 1>hotel m h. I don't know what hotel it is,

0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.880
<v Speaker 1>the Mature, I can't be sure. Anyway, I got a

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 1>DM on the outdoor account on Instagram from the official

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Wallarous Instagram account and it's like, Hey, the girls have

0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:59.440
<v Speaker 1>been here all week and they've been loving coming to

0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>your cafe every day for coffees. Would you like, would

0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 1>we be able to come in and film? They wanted

0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 1>to just film some content of them like trying to

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>make coffees and handing them out to customers and stuff,

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, of course. Now. I didn't know

0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 1>if they knew like me or my connection to the cafe,

0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>but I like screenshotted it and send it to our

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:24.919
<v Speaker 1>cafe manager Tom and he's like, oh, yeah, those girls

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>have been here every day this week because there was

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:29.320
<v Speaker 1>a big game on the weekend in Newcastle. I think

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>their first New Zealand don't quote me on that. And

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:33.960
<v Speaker 1>he's like, yeah, they've been coming in every week, every

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>day they're super nice, and I was like, okay, cool,

0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>So I just replied to them and just said hey,

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.440
<v Speaker 1>of course like with seven am Friday work, and they're like, yep,

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:43.880
<v Speaker 1>see you there. But like I didn't know if they

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>knew who they were messaging because I didn't sign off

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 1>with my name or anything. Yeah, but then when I

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and then I because we have like one of our

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>fate team members who does like content for us, she

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>also like does the content for our cafe, just like

0:03:58.000 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 1>once a week kind of thing. So I wasn't sure

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 1>whether to send her in, but for some reason, I

0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh go, so I went in at seven am,

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 1>and then lucky I did, because like they wanted me

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to be in the videos. So someone in their whole

0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 1>team must have known that it was my cafe kind

0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 1>of thing and they wanted me to be in the content.

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 1>So then we just had like a random hour at

0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.600
<v Speaker 1>seven am on a Friday morning of making some funny

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 1>content and like that one where we did the this

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 1>week a hot new bombshell enters the villa. That was

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.440
<v Speaker 1>their idea, and like they had the jersey for me

0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and everything, so they were just super nice. Shout out

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 1>to the wallaroos. It was super random, but it just

0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>got me thinking because I was joking around to them

0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 1>saying like can I join the team? And they were

0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, and I'm like, what did you see the video?

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:44.080
<v Speaker 1>And I said what does it take to be in

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:45.680
<v Speaker 1>the team? Where They're like, well, you got a coffee

0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>shop and I'm like, yeah, what else and they say,

0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 1>well you like coffee, So like I'm part of the team.

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:55.920
<v Speaker 1>But it got me thinking about sport as an adult

0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>because I've got some I've got some mixed feelings.

0:04:58.600 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Matt Okay.

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.719
<v Speaker 1>First feeling is I feel like I need to play sports.

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>But also at the same time, I look at people

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>that play sport as an adult if it's not professionally,

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and I say, grow up. Do you know what I mean? Like,

0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 1>unless you are playing sport professionally, Like imagine if AJ

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>was still playing soccer like get over a doll even

0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:24.920
<v Speaker 1>in primary school?

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Good?

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:30.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, But after like meeting the team, I think

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I want to switch careers. Really well, it would just

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>be fun.

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 2>I've never been good at any sports. I've never been

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:42.080
<v Speaker 2>good at any musical instruments. I've never had a dancing

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 2>I was good at dancing dancing is a bit different though,

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 2>if you were still a dancer when you're thirty, isn't

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:48.440
<v Speaker 2>that Okay?

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, I wanted to for the longest time to go

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>back to dancing. Yeah, but like not that, not that

0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I so like I would. I did zoomba a couple

0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 1>of years ago, but just at like a whole like

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 1>with all the oldies.

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:04.880
<v Speaker 2>And that's to do one called dance fit.

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:05.760
<v Speaker 1>That's fun.

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 2>It was similar to zumba but not so much Latin.

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:09.919
<v Speaker 1>That's fun.

0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Just do Yeah, absolutely, it's such a good workout as well.

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:15.279
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I would love.

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:17.640
<v Speaker 1>I would love to go back to proper dancing. But

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:21.159
<v Speaker 1>then I feel like, Okay, I don't think I'm better

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:24.200
<v Speaker 1>than anyone. I don't think I'm like a famous person

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:27.359
<v Speaker 1>at all. But I've been hesitant to join a dance

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:31.159
<v Speaker 1>school because people obviously follow me online and they know

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 1>me from online and fade and TikTok and everything. Like

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.080
<v Speaker 1>sometimes when I'm out and about in public, I can

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>see people from a distance taking a photo of me.

0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 1>So then I've always thought, would that be weird if

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I just was like, hey, I'm joining this random local

0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.359
<v Speaker 1>dance school in Newcastle, and there's like I don't know

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:47.440
<v Speaker 1>younger girls there or whatever that watch TikTok and they're

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 1>going to be all funny, like like I just want

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to join a dance school and be the same as

0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:54.360
<v Speaker 1>everyone else whereas people go she's from TikTok, like I'm

0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 1>going to take a photo with her, and I just

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 1>think that would be weird. Yeah, And then I'm like,

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:00.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe I could do private lessons.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.919
<v Speaker 2>Because imagine, you know, like on a different scale, imagine

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:07.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, you've gone down to do a zoomber class

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 2>and Nicole fucking Kidman's in it would go.

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>The oldies at the hall doing zoom but none of

0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>them knew anything, you know. And again like I don't

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 1>think I'm any famous person. I think I'm no one.

0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Like I would go to a dance school and be like, hey,

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm here to do the adult tap class. The people

0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:26.080
<v Speaker 1>might just be like what the fuck is she doing?

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, especially in Newcastle, like it's.

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Like seeing It's like I feel like when because I

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 2>even went into t K Max not long ago, and

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.160
<v Speaker 2>the girl in there recognized me and she worked there,

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:42.000
<v Speaker 2>and she started you know, screaming, causing big fuss. Can

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:44.119
<v Speaker 2>I get a pharaoh blah blahlah. But she kept saying

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:46.800
<v Speaker 2>to me over and over, I can't believe you're here.

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe you're here. And I'm thinking in a

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:54.080
<v Speaker 2>TK fucking Max doing my shopping, like what, well, I

0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 2>can't believe you're standing in this shop that I work in.

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:01.840
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, that's like what I'm in my

0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Faith stores, and they go, I can't believe I'm I

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 1>work here. This is the company I owned as over here.

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.320
<v Speaker 1>People have said that before, and I'm about to I'm

<v Speaker 1>on my book to it right now as this episode's

0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 1>going live, and I know people will be like, I

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.440
<v Speaker 1>can't believe I'm meeting you. You can't believe you meet

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 1>me in my own sucking shop. Who of course you are.

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 3>People are funny, It's so funny.

0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 1>People are funny. But anyway, but.

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:27.640
<v Speaker 2>That's the thing I think they like. It's like seeing

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:29.960
<v Speaker 2>a dog walk on its hind legs. Remember that an

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 2>analogy of seeing a teacher outside of school.

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's like when someone's just online, it's weird to

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>see you to meet them in person, And maybe when

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 1>people as saying I can't believe you here, like that's

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>what they mean. It's just weird because they're and people

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>have probably said it to you. People say to me,

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 1>it's so weird to actually see you in person after

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:49.959
<v Speaker 1>watching you online for five years or however long. Maybe

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.559
<v Speaker 1>that's what they mean. But I really, I really want

0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.559
<v Speaker 1>to go back to dancing. But I've been saying that forever,

0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:58.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, what's stopping me? I think it's just

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.680
<v Speaker 1>a fear. Yeah, people saying, what the fuck is she

0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>doing here?

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, I did play a little bit of tennis

0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.560
<v Speaker 2>for a hot second, and by that I mean literally

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:12.560
<v Speaker 2>fifteen minutes before Toby moved to Spain. We went and

0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 2>just down at local court and because you know in

0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.319
<v Speaker 2>the parks, they've just got the free tennis courts you

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 2>can use, and we use the tennis court for a

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 2>little bit and I probably hit the ball about seven times,

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:24.760
<v Speaker 2>but I was fucking obsessed with that.

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was fun.

0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Tennis is so fun to do this.

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:29.679
<v Speaker 1>Every day I think about it.

0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.040
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't do any of the ones that you've got

0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.080
<v Speaker 2>to run again. Maybe I did soccer.

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Maybe four years ago I joined a couple of my

0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:41.319
<v Speaker 1>friend's nighttime netball team at the Forum in the UNI

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:45.559
<v Speaker 1>in Newcastle. There was two things that pissed me off

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.560
<v Speaker 1>about it. Number One, the game time every week was different,

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 1>so sometimes it'd be like six thirty and other times

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:54.280
<v Speaker 1>it'd be eight thirty, and like eight thirty on a

0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:57.040
<v Speaker 1>week night, it was like a Tuesday night. That pissed

0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>me off. The second thing that pissed me off about it,

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:02.959
<v Speaker 1>I thought I was just signing up for like fun,

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:05.560
<v Speaker 1>like it's just fun adult netball at night.

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.320
<v Speaker 2>But they were competitives. Oh it was.

0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>And so I've actually got a funny story about me

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:13.440
<v Speaker 1>doing netball when I was a kid. But I did

0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:17.079
<v Speaker 1>netball all through primary school and high school, and so

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>I just thought, oh, yeah, adult netball fun at night

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 1>at Newcastle UNI. Fun. No these women, and it's like

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>women of all ages, Like there was older women, younger girls.

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:30.160
<v Speaker 1>They took it really fucking serious, like it was too

0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>serious for me, Like they were shoulder charging getting pissed off.

0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm just running around trying to catch my breath the

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 1>whole game because I haven't played netball in like over

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:43.200
<v Speaker 1>ten years. But I couldn't do that anymore. Do you

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>actually want to know something funny? So I did netball

0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:49.680
<v Speaker 1>like I started it when I was like five and

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.600
<v Speaker 1>did it through primary school and then in high school

0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>and then I must have been thirteen or fourteen I

0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:02.079
<v Speaker 1>was playing like at Newcastle Netball because yeah, anyway, I

0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:04.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know why I'm rambling on with that, but there's

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 1>all like the main clubs when you play netball, like

0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Wests or South's or whatever. But I realized when I

0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.720
<v Speaker 1>was and again I think this is the fucking business

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:15.440
<v Speaker 1>owner in me mat now that I think about it.

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:19.600
<v Speaker 1>What I realized was I could make it independent netball

0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>team and we didn't have to be part of a

0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:23.800
<v Speaker 1>club because you know how like all soccer teams, netball

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.760
<v Speaker 1>teams they're part of the club. I realized. I literally

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 1>didn't even I haven't thought about this, but I made

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.360
<v Speaker 1>my own independent team and then I scouted girls from

0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>my school to be in our team.

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>And wait when was this?

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I would have been fourteen. Oh, and so you just

0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>sign up like with the like kind of netball courts

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 1>as your own independent team. Then you don't have to

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.040
<v Speaker 1>be part of a club, so you don't have to

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.200
<v Speaker 1>do the training or anything, because like when you play

0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I used to play for West, so we'd have to

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:55.080
<v Speaker 1>go to the courts near West and you have your

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>coach and do your training and whatever. So I sign

0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 1>us up as our own team. I designed our own

0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.840
<v Speaker 1>dresses down to the colors and everything. I named the

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>team the Blizzards.

0:12:08.080 --> 0:12:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Wait, how did you just join in? Did you have

0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 2>to pay?

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:14.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Then I think you paid a register in the competition.

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.080
<v Speaker 1>And then I scouted a heap of girls from my

0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:21.520
<v Speaker 1>school in my year and the year below, and they

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.680
<v Speaker 1>had all previously played and there was a couple of

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.040
<v Speaker 1>friends from outside of school too, and they had all

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:31.120
<v Speaker 1>played like a grade netball, so we're all actually like

0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:35.520
<v Speaker 1>really good netballers. And so then you just would show

0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.439
<v Speaker 1>up every weekend like you'd get the schedule, and you

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.440
<v Speaker 1>just got put into the competition, but you're not with

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:43.560
<v Speaker 1>the club, like you're just a solo independent team. And

0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:45.880
<v Speaker 1>now the great thing about that was we didn't have

0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:48.960
<v Speaker 1>to do training because I used to love playing netball,

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:52.319
<v Speaker 1>but I hated going to training like on a weeknight

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:56.560
<v Speaker 1>in the freezing throwing the ball around, fucking running up

0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and down.

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Day. And then we play on Saturday.

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 1>So I think the girls and I we met at

0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Newcastle netball courts, I think once or twice to try

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:08.840
<v Speaker 1>to do training, but we didn't have a coach or anything.

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>It was just us fucking around and then we gave

0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:13.240
<v Speaker 1>up on it and we were just all about the

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Saturday games. Like just loved going to netball on a Saturday,

0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:21.439
<v Speaker 1>like one o'clock or whatever. And I think in Newcastle

0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.480
<v Speaker 1>this is so niche. But like West and South, like

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>South's Merriweather were always the best teams, like they were

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.480
<v Speaker 1>always the ones that won the Grand Final. We fucking

0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 1>won the Grand Final and we won against South's Merriweather.

0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.240
<v Speaker 1>And these girls are really good. They had a really

0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:41.440
<v Speaker 1>strict coach, like an older woman. And I remember on

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Grand Final day like I can't couldn't believe that we

0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.000
<v Speaker 1>got to the Grand Final because we never trained, like

0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.800
<v Speaker 1>we just showed up. We just showed up. And Grand

0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Final Day we all rock up with our bacon and

0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 1>egg rolls and we're just like that's what it was

0:13:56.640 --> 0:14:00.600
<v Speaker 1>all about for me, Like the canteen had our bacon

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:03.480
<v Speaker 1>and egg rolls, our bags and lollies, our chips. It's

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Grand Final day. We rock up in our there was blue,

0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:08.320
<v Speaker 1>purple and white. The dresses that were how.

0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Did you get the dresses? Did someone else make them?

0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Or are they just soup prey.

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:16.240
<v Speaker 1>It's they're like the proper dress with the skirt. I

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 1>went to the Newcastle Netball shop and you could like

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 1>have them like up lock it up for you and

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.200
<v Speaker 1>make it.

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 2>So really that was the That was the bizarre.

0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 1>It was blue, purple and white. I remember picking out

0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:33.360
<v Speaker 1>all the colors and where it was going to go

0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:36.800
<v Speaker 1>and then we had the name on the side. And

0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>so we show up on Grand Final day and the

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:42.560
<v Speaker 1>South's team that we were versing, they'd already been there

0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>definitely for like an hour warming up, like and the

0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>coach is yelling on them at bacon and egg rolls

0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 1>like hey girls, and we were kind of friends with

0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:54.680
<v Speaker 1>some of them, like on the opposing team, and then

0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.560
<v Speaker 1>we flogged them wow, Like I think we won by

0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.640
<v Speaker 1>like twenty wow. And it was just hilarious because that

0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:03.400
<v Speaker 1>was just us being super lazy, wanting to play netball

0:15:03.440 --> 0:15:06.720
<v Speaker 1>but hated having a coach and hated doing training. We

0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 1>just want to show up for the canteen.

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Like. So my question is if you can do it

0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 2>independently like that, I wonder what the point of having

0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.560
<v Speaker 2>the club is because my whole thing is, like I

0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 2>thought the club might have paid for certain things or no,

0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 2>you still.

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Pay for everything when you're with the club. I think

0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 1>it's like the convenience and also like saying that you

0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 1>play for the club like I used to play for

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Wests and then you're in the West's uniform. Yeah, you

0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:32.760
<v Speaker 1>have the coach like we usually had, like a guy coach,

0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:36.600
<v Speaker 1>someone's dad or whatever, and you pay to be part

0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.280
<v Speaker 1>of the community. Right Whereas we didn't want to do

0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 1>any of that. We just wanted to get bags and

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:46.920
<v Speaker 1>we just did it the one year and that was it.

0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:49.680
<v Speaker 1>What a good memory. Honestly, I'd do it again. Does

0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 1>anyone listening if you're a Newcastle.

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Well I was going to say you need to, like

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:55.600
<v Speaker 2>you could do it, but I was just thinking all

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:57.120
<v Speaker 2>your friends have kids.

0:15:57.200 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 1>True, but maybe we've got some scroll that you can

0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:00.480
<v Speaker 1>have kids and play netball.

0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I know, but it's hard on a weeknight at eight

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.040
<v Speaker 2>thirty to do your netball.

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 1>No, well, this is Saturday netball. This is like the proper,

0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:12.040
<v Speaker 1>like the proper netball. So if anyone out there listening

0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.480
<v Speaker 1>is from Newcastle, I would do it because like one

0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>o'clock on a Saturday, two o'clock perfect, just for an

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>hour fuck the training, fuck the coach. Just show up,

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>get a bacon and egg roll, get a bag of snakes.

0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.000
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm all about, and then get like a

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:28.240
<v Speaker 1>fat can of coke.

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.280
<v Speaker 2>After that big packet of red frogs.

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:33.720
<v Speaker 1>And I think when you register, this is just another

0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 1>memory that popped up. Any club or independent team that

0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.880
<v Speaker 1>registers with netball, I think two times in a season

0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:44.200
<v Speaker 1>you have to work in the canteen, because you know how,

0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the canteens are run by volunteers as well. But somehow

0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 1>we got out of it both times.

0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:52.360
<v Speaker 2>But I think because yeah, see that doesn't make sense.

0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 2>The independent doesn't make sense to me. I'm pretty sure

0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 2>like you, I'm pretty sure it's the club that runs it.

0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:00.400
<v Speaker 1>No, then I remember us saying when we signed up,

0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 1>two of us at some point have to do the

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.720
<v Speaker 1>canteen one day kind of thing. But we somehow got

0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:09.639
<v Speaker 1>out of that as well. It was perfect anyway. I

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:11.639
<v Speaker 1>don't know if independent teams are still a thing. So

0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 1>anyone got kids out there who play netball these days?

0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, let me know, But that was an

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:19.240
<v Speaker 1>entrepreneurial thing I did back when I was fourteen and

0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:25.879
<v Speaker 1>the Blizzards were fate I just didn't know it.

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Please be upstanding for the royal flush. Well, it's time

0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:34.720
<v Speaker 2>for our royal flush of the week. Mine's a nice,

0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:36.880
<v Speaker 2>quick little one. But it's one of those moments that

0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:40.960
<v Speaker 2>it happened over the weekend. So over the weekend on Saturday,

0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.119
<v Speaker 2>I decided it was just a bit of a rot

0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:46.359
<v Speaker 2>day for me. I love rotting.

0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:50.440
<v Speaker 1>See I love it too, but I get so guilty mat.

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.080
<v Speaker 2>Get over that. I can't now get a grip.

0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Girl, No, but even down to like, so Sunday was

0:17:57.640 --> 0:17:58.240
<v Speaker 1>my rot day?

0:17:58.400 --> 0:17:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh.

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.199
<v Speaker 1>But I lay in bed and I'm scrolling and then

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:04.119
<v Speaker 1>I think of, like all the clothes that I could wash,

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:05.840
<v Speaker 1>or I think of my wardrobe and how I could

0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:07.399
<v Speaker 1>sort it out. So then I get up for a

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:08.880
<v Speaker 1>bit and do a little bit. Then I go back

0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:11.639
<v Speaker 1>to the rock. I feel so guilty knowing all the

0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:12.919
<v Speaker 1>things that I could be doing.

0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:16.560
<v Speaker 2>See, I'm like, you do that the day after the

0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:19.000
<v Speaker 2>rot or the day before the rot. Yeah, you know,

0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.280
<v Speaker 2>so the clothes and everything that needs to get done

0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:23.720
<v Speaker 2>on Sunday if I'm going to rot on Saturday.

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.679
<v Speaker 1>But there's just to me, there's always more that we

0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:29.199
<v Speaker 1>can do, and I can't mentally get over that.

0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, go to therapy, because I honestly could not disagree.

0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:37.960
<v Speaker 2>More like, I'm like, switching off is the healthiest thing

0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 2>you can do for it.

0:18:38.640 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I agree, But I got something wrong with me because

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I just lay in bed like to have a day,

0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, I can't because I can't stop thinking

0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 1>of all things that I could be doing instead, I

0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:49.560
<v Speaker 1>still do a rot all.

0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:52.800
<v Speaker 2>I wish I had that attitude, but I'm glad I

0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:56.680
<v Speaker 2>don't because I love a rot. I love rarati in

0:18:56.760 --> 0:19:00.600
<v Speaker 2>bed like a fucking apple core, Like right, I want

0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:05.399
<v Speaker 2>to go muldy at this point. Honestly, I had my

0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:08.359
<v Speaker 2>rotting on Saturday and I was obviously scrolling on the

0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:11.840
<v Speaker 2>tiktoks and I came across this video and I was

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:13.760
<v Speaker 2>laying in bed and it was raining outside.

0:19:13.800 --> 0:19:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Of perfect I feel less guilty if it's raining outside

0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:19.080
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know why, because there's still shit to do.

0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's what this TikTok was. It said, when you're

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:25.720
<v Speaker 2>rotting in bed on a Saturday and it decides to rain,

0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 2>and you could hear the rain in the background. The

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:32.359
<v Speaker 2>sound was something like, oh no, that's right, And I

0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:35.320
<v Speaker 2>was like, that is so mean right now, And it's

0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.160
<v Speaker 2>such a royal flush for me because I'm like, it's

0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:41.280
<v Speaker 2>honestly so relatable, like when you have a day to

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.640
<v Speaker 2>rot in bed on a Saturday, for example, and you're

0:19:44.680 --> 0:19:46.800
<v Speaker 2>laying in bed and then you hear the rain come

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:51.720
<v Speaker 2>and you're go, fuck, yeah, the blinds are class you're

0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:55.360
<v Speaker 2>in the darkness. Oh my god, it was just heavens.

0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:58.919
<v Speaker 2>That's my royal flush of the week, was that moment

0:19:59.280 --> 0:19:59.920
<v Speaker 2>of pure blue.

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what I'm loving lately. I feel like

0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I've been loving it for a while. Actually having Friday night.

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's different for you because you don't like

0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:12.000
<v Speaker 1>work a traditional Monday to Friday job, but I do,

0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:14.800
<v Speaker 1>so like my weekend is very much my weekend kind

0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:17.120
<v Speaker 1>of thing. But for those of you that do work

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:21.560
<v Speaker 1>full time and have your weekends off doing your thing,

0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:24.199
<v Speaker 1>like having your night out on a Friday night, so

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:27.560
<v Speaker 1>you've got the rest of the weekend to enjoy. Because

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I feel like when I have an event on a

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night, let's say it's someone's birthday, engagement or whatever,

0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that takes up my entire weekend, Like

0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:38.440
<v Speaker 1>there's my whole weekend gone for sure, because like the Saturday,

0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you're like getting ready for it. You don't do anything

0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:43.840
<v Speaker 1>on the Friday night because you've got something on the

0:20:43.880 --> 0:20:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night. So like, for example, it was AJ's brother's birthday,

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.480
<v Speaker 1>so we're like going to his birthday on a Saturday night.

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:52.760
<v Speaker 1>So like we didn't do anything on the Friday night

0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:54.800
<v Speaker 1>because we've got the birthday on the Saturday night. And

0:20:54.840 --> 0:20:56.720
<v Speaker 1>then I didn't really do anything on the Saturday because

0:20:56.720 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I've got and because it was starting at like two pm,

0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:02.040
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't do anything. And then if you have

0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:06.520
<v Speaker 1>a really big night, then like you wake up on Sunday. Yeah,

0:21:06.560 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 1>And so I'm all for having Friday night be the

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:13.080
<v Speaker 1>big night of the weekend for those people that have

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:14.600
<v Speaker 1>like a traditional weekend.

0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Friday for a lot of people is the

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:22.160
<v Speaker 2>new is the new Saturday because a lot of people

0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:25.320
<v Speaker 2>work from home on a Friday, so their Thursday night

0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:26.760
<v Speaker 2>is actually their Friday night.

0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Why because they just hungover at home?

0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:32.560
<v Speaker 2>No, but I mean Friday, you know, speaking of if

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:35.159
<v Speaker 2>you have something on Saturday night, you don't do anything

0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:37.240
<v Speaker 2>all Saturday. I feel Friday night could be the same

0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:39.160
<v Speaker 2>these days because a lot of people work from home

0:21:39.200 --> 0:21:42.720
<v Speaker 2>on Fridays. So what I'm saying is Friday, you're not

0:21:42.760 --> 0:21:46.960
<v Speaker 2>really doing anything until the Friday night anyway.

0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Exactly, And so I'm all for it, Like date night

0:21:49.280 --> 0:21:52.560
<v Speaker 1>on Friday night, have a party on a Friday night,

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:56.120
<v Speaker 1>because then you've got all day Saturday, all Saturday night,

0:21:56.200 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 1>and all Sunday to enjoy and relax on the weekend.

0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:02.720
<v Speaker 1>So I'm here for it. Another thing that I would

0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 1>like to do, which I feel like we've spoken about

0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:08.199
<v Speaker 1>on the pod before, is like doing more things on weeknights.

0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:11.520
<v Speaker 1>And again it's because I work a traditional like Monday

0:22:11.560 --> 0:22:15.080
<v Speaker 1>to Friday life. Weeknights, I don't do anything because I've

0:22:15.119 --> 0:22:19.560
<v Speaker 1>got work the next day. But I want to try

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:21.440
<v Speaker 1>and venture out of the house on weeknights.

0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, have date nights throughout the week as well.

0:22:24.160 --> 0:22:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I need to try it. I've never tried it, really.

0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 2>No. We love a Tuesday date night. Fuck, it's quiet,

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:34.720
<v Speaker 2>you get the waitresses full attention, everything's perfect because they're

0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:41.919
<v Speaker 2>cooking everything fresh. Oh, I love a Tuesday night date night. Monday,

0:22:42.000 --> 0:22:45.679
<v Speaker 2>everyone's still in weekend mode. Yeah, so the brain farts

0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:47.600
<v Speaker 2>on a Monday. Tuesday's a good night.

0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I reckon Thursday as well, because it's like close to

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:52.879
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, so it's almost like you're mentally starting the weekend.

0:22:53.000 --> 0:22:55.840
<v Speaker 2>I always have a theory that Thursday traffic's always fucked.

0:22:55.840 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why traffic on a Thursday. I think

0:22:58.840 --> 0:23:01.240
<v Speaker 2>it's too close to the weekend. People's brains are starting

0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:01.880
<v Speaker 2>to switch Roe.

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:04.680
<v Speaker 1>I live in Newcastle. There's no traffic. People that live

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:07.120
<v Speaker 1>there would disagree. Actually, there is traffic in certain parts

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.600
<v Speaker 1>of NEWI, but where I live everything's five minutes away.

0:23:09.840 --> 0:23:13.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, fair enough. I think Thursdays, I don't know

0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:15.919
<v Speaker 2>what it is, but the traffic's always cooked. Maybe it's

0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 2>late night trade, yeah, people leaving at different times. I

0:23:19.880 --> 0:23:23.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know. But yeah, so what was that your royal

0:23:23.480 --> 0:23:24.480
<v Speaker 2>flush or you haven't told you?

0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:30.679
<v Speaker 1>That could be my mini royal flush. Do something on

0:23:30.760 --> 0:23:34.120
<v Speaker 1>a weeknight because we just get home from work, lay

0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:36.679
<v Speaker 1>on the lounge, cook dinner, eat dinner. If you're mean,

0:23:36.760 --> 0:23:39.520
<v Speaker 1>you don't cook dinner, you order it and then you

0:23:39.600 --> 0:23:40.080
<v Speaker 1>go to bed.

0:23:40.440 --> 0:23:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, Really, you never cooked dinner?

0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Really? What? Yeah, we've had this conversation before us still though, Yeah,

0:23:47.880 --> 0:23:49.439
<v Speaker 1>what you think I've changed in six months?

0:23:49.560 --> 0:23:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god? Well, yeah, that's a real long time

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 2>to get your shit together. You just order every.

0:23:55.400 --> 0:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Night, not every night, I would say maybe four nights. Yeah,

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.119
<v Speaker 1>but that used to be my life and I'm busy, mate,

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:06.640
<v Speaker 1>come on.

0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I guess so yeah, still, what do you get?

0:24:12.119 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Take me through a week?

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Like? It's just different every night? Tie? Indian? Yeah, Chinese?

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:25.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Do you do you do the groceries?

0:24:25.760 --> 0:24:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm yeah maybe once a month.

0:24:31.640 --> 0:24:33.640
<v Speaker 2>I am moving in.

0:24:34.000 --> 0:24:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Once a month. But I do like a massive shop

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:39.440
<v Speaker 1>and like I freeze stuff, you know, but I don't

0:24:39.480 --> 0:24:43.800
<v Speaker 1>do groceries every week now. Nice, and because like especially lately,

0:24:44.240 --> 0:24:48.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm away like most weeks for like two nights, or

0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm away for a week like with work.

0:24:50.880 --> 0:24:53.080
<v Speaker 2>So it's been annoying me lately. I've been all over

0:24:53.119 --> 0:24:54.720
<v Speaker 2>the shop and I keep buying.

0:24:54.680 --> 0:24:56.760
<v Speaker 1>And then it all goes out and then I don't.

0:24:56.600 --> 0:25:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Fucking do it. Yeah. I feel like food deliveries gotten

0:25:00.200 --> 0:25:03.160
<v Speaker 2>so expensive. It used to be pretty reasonable and now

0:25:03.160 --> 0:25:05.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm like a basic meal for one person can be

0:25:05.840 --> 0:25:08.640
<v Speaker 2>almost one hundred dollars. What's going on?

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a lot.

0:25:11.080 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 2>Anyway. What's your Royal flush of the week? Please?

0:25:13.720 --> 0:25:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, my Royal flush is actually music related and it's

0:25:17.760 --> 0:25:21.040
<v Speaker 1>an artist that I think is and I think the

0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:23.840
<v Speaker 1>whole world thinks this too. I think it's an artist

0:25:23.880 --> 0:25:28.840
<v Speaker 1>that is very underrated and she doesn't get the recognition

0:25:28.880 --> 0:25:32.080
<v Speaker 1>that she deserves. That's not to say she hasn't had

0:25:32.160 --> 0:25:35.119
<v Speaker 1>like she's had some absolute bangers, but I just feel

0:25:35.160 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 1>like she is like pop star, top tier quality and

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:42.919
<v Speaker 1>she just doesn't get the praise that she should or

0:25:42.920 --> 0:25:45.199
<v Speaker 1>the hype that she should. She should be up there with.

0:25:45.320 --> 0:25:48.760
<v Speaker 2>And I guess, yeah, she should be up there with who.

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Like with the stars that are on the rise. Now,

0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:56.160
<v Speaker 1>you're Tate McCrae, Addison Ray, even Sabrina Carpenter level.

0:25:56.920 --> 0:26:01.480
<v Speaker 2>Right, I can have three guesses. Okay, is Apha Max No?

0:26:02.040 --> 0:26:03.639
<v Speaker 2>The second is bb Rex so no.

0:26:03.920 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 1>But she should get more recognition. Absolutely.

0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh I need more clues than for blonde hair. Yeah,

0:26:11.440 --> 0:26:12.920
<v Speaker 2>that's two of the people.

0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:16.000
<v Speaker 1>She's had bangers too, Like we know her hits, but

0:26:16.080 --> 0:26:18.199
<v Speaker 1>she always has a hit and then it just like

0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:19.240
<v Speaker 1>she goes into the quiet.

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:25.719
<v Speaker 2>Hmmm. I don't want to say Ellie Guilding. No, Right,

0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:28.080
<v Speaker 2>I need another clue, give me another clue.

0:26:29.160 --> 0:26:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't really know that much about her. Oh, she

0:26:32.119 --> 0:26:33.960
<v Speaker 1>has three million followers on TikTok.

0:26:35.240 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Hmm, I n followed Jojo Seewhill.

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:41.640
<v Speaker 1>By the way, the other day you ue followed her.

0:26:41.760 --> 0:26:47.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, face just thinking because you said blonde TikTok. She

0:26:47.200 --> 0:26:47.879
<v Speaker 2>came to mind.

0:26:48.240 --> 0:26:49.679
<v Speaker 1>Okay, do you want me to tell you who it is?

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:26:50.840 --> 0:26:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Go on, it's Zara Larson.

0:26:52.920 --> 0:26:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh. I couldn't even name one song from her.

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I just want to be part of Fanny.

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, that my day.

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:04.399
<v Speaker 1>As if it was less like she had done so

0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:08.080
<v Speaker 1>many songs that we know, I would lack to get

0:27:08.359 --> 0:27:10.600
<v Speaker 1>to know you, baby.

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:14.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if she could. I mean, anything is

0:27:14.920 --> 0:27:17.960
<v Speaker 2>possible after Charlie XCX. I mean people forget that she's

0:27:18.000 --> 0:27:22.320
<v Speaker 2>been going at it forever. People, I think, did you

0:27:22.400 --> 0:27:23.439
<v Speaker 2>when she started singing?

0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:27.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. I didn't know that was her song. No,

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I just see that as like a Carl's add or

0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:32.920
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is KFC. But I had no idea that

0:27:32.960 --> 0:27:33.440
<v Speaker 1>was Charlie X.

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:37.879
<v Speaker 2>Everyone forgets about Fancy as well. I'm so fancy.

0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, is that her?

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Here you go?

0:27:40.480 --> 0:27:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, I feel like the Zara Larson is the same.

0:27:42.280 --> 0:27:44.440
<v Speaker 1>She has had so many bangers and has been going

0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:47.280
<v Speaker 1>for so long, and like she'll have a song pop

0:27:47.359 --> 0:27:51.440
<v Speaker 1>up and then it just like falls down, not falls down,

0:27:51.520 --> 0:27:53.879
<v Speaker 1>but you know what I mean. Anyway, she's got a

0:27:53.880 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 1>new song. Is it called messy or ugly? Okay, it's

0:27:59.560 --> 0:28:05.040
<v Speaker 1>called pretty ugly? Was it it was called pretty or ugly?

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:09.080
<v Speaker 1>It's called pretty ugly. It's amazing, Like she's amazing. It's singing,

0:28:09.160 --> 0:28:12.399
<v Speaker 1>dancing on stage, She's amazing. I'm surprised she hasn't like

0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:15.000
<v Speaker 1>had her moment yet where then she's playing at Coachella.

0:28:15.240 --> 0:28:17.000
<v Speaker 2>We haven't had a song of the summer yet.

0:28:18.600 --> 0:28:21.199
<v Speaker 1>I think this is it because she's just you need

0:28:21.240 --> 0:28:22.920
<v Speaker 1>to go and listen to the whole thing and watch

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:23.359
<v Speaker 1>the music.

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Very girly, though some of the summer needs to appeal

0:28:26.280 --> 0:28:26.960
<v Speaker 2>to the masses.

0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:29.679
<v Speaker 1>True, maybe it isn't her song of the summer, but

0:28:29.760 --> 0:28:32.320
<v Speaker 1>she's just like I follow her on TikTok and she

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.640
<v Speaker 1>just she's also so funny, Like she's got a really

0:28:34.640 --> 0:28:36.719
<v Speaker 1>strong personal brand and like isn't afraid to be her

0:28:36.720 --> 0:28:39.360
<v Speaker 1>self on social media and post tiktoks all the time,

0:28:39.560 --> 0:28:41.920
<v Speaker 1>which I feel like some celebrities are missing.

0:28:42.200 --> 0:28:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Wasn't there some sort of controversy with Zara Larson and

0:28:44.880 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 2>that's what stunted her growth.

0:28:46.240 --> 0:28:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, didn't she not that I'm aware of?

0:28:48.880 --> 0:28:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Didn't she come for somebody?

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Zara Larson controversy.

0:28:53.840 --> 0:28:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just type that in she tweeted something to someone.

0:28:59.040 --> 0:29:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Zara Larson is embroiled in a feud with an influencer

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:05.680
<v Speaker 1>who falsely claimed he was using a homophobic slur, later

0:29:05.720 --> 0:29:10.000
<v Speaker 1>saying it was satire. Zara Larson called out a TikToker

0:29:10.000 --> 0:29:13.000
<v Speaker 1>who accused her of saying a homophobic slur on stage.

0:29:13.560 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>The singer described herself as an ally and said that

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the accusations were clearly a joke.

0:29:19.280 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, no, let me go google girl. It

0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:24.960
<v Speaker 2>was it was to James Charles?

0:29:25.440 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Was it?

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 2>It was to James Charles? She tweeted something about James

0:29:28.920 --> 0:29:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Charles and it was in that big drama. Maybe it

0:29:32.240 --> 0:29:33.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't Zara.

0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Larson though, maybe it was someone else. Oh yep. Zara

0:29:38.160 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Larson apologizes to James Charles after accusing him of flirting

0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 1>with her boyfriend. Yeah, singer Zara Larson, this.

0:29:47.960 --> 0:29:51.120
<v Speaker 2>Is when the drama geddon happened with Tarti West.

0:29:51.560 --> 0:29:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because there's a photo of Tati here and uh,

0:29:54.240 --> 0:29:55.320
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't Across all.

0:29:55.160 --> 0:29:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Of this, Zarah Larson has made amends with James Charles

0:29:58.160 --> 0:30:00.880
<v Speaker 2>after accusing the YouTuber of direct miss her boyfriend to

0:30:00.920 --> 0:30:03.600
<v Speaker 2>flirt as allegations of his predatory behavior came to light

0:30:03.680 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 2>on the Internet, then in James Charles. In James Charles's

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:12.920
<v Speaker 2>response by a sister or whatever, he called that, remember

0:30:12.920 --> 0:30:15.920
<v Speaker 2>that big video which I still fucking watch once a year,

0:30:15.960 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 2>And I go back and I.

0:30:17.200 --> 0:30:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Go, wow, I didn't get into any of this. I

0:30:19.840 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 1>remember just seeing little clips of it, but I never

0:30:21.680 --> 0:30:22.560
<v Speaker 1>knew the whole thing.

0:30:22.600 --> 0:30:24.959
<v Speaker 2>I mean, say what you want about James Charles, whatever

0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:28.560
<v Speaker 2>that video was, it's what.

0:30:28.600 --> 0:30:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Did he do was he got snapping back at touch.

0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 2>He just came out with all the receipts to prove

0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:36.480
<v Speaker 2>everyone wrong and left nothing on the table. And I went, whoa,

0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Like that's how you clear your fucking name because that

0:30:39.120 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 2>was wild. Like I was like whoa, And yeah, Zarah

0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:46.120
<v Speaker 2>Lasting came out and said, like cackling because he hit

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:49.120
<v Speaker 2>up my boyfriend in the DM several time times, knowing

0:30:49.200 --> 0:30:52.440
<v Speaker 2>damn well he's straight. But then James came out with

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:55.680
<v Speaker 2>a proof to be like, this isn't exactly what happened,

0:30:57.000 --> 0:31:00.719
<v Speaker 2>and then she apologized in the end to James did

0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:02.920
<v Speaker 2>a tweet saying, I always try to best, always try

0:31:02.920 --> 0:31:04.760
<v Speaker 2>my best to learn and apologize if I'm wrong. I'm

0:31:04.760 --> 0:31:08.560
<v Speaker 2>sorry James Charles for getting involved before I actually knew

0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:11.040
<v Speaker 2>the truth and for the anxiety you must have felt

0:31:11.120 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 2>about everything. I'm pretty sure Zarah Larson as well is,

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:17.480
<v Speaker 2>like you know, quite has quite a culty fan base

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 2>and online, especially on Twitter, at least back in the day.

0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what it's like now that it's x

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:25.280
<v Speaker 2>but you know, back in the day, I feel like

0:31:25.720 --> 0:31:29.520
<v Speaker 2>she had like a cult kind of following. Anyway, I

0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:33.400
<v Speaker 2>can't find much more at the moment about exactly what

0:31:33.480 --> 0:31:36.640
<v Speaker 2>James said in that video, but I can't be bothered

0:31:36.640 --> 0:31:38.040
<v Speaker 2>going and finding it anyway.

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:40.400
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, maybe that's why.

0:31:40.600 --> 0:31:42.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, I remember that being a really big thing and

0:31:43.680 --> 0:31:46.520
<v Speaker 2>people being like, that's not good enough that you did that,

0:31:46.560 --> 0:31:48.760
<v Speaker 2>because obviously then it just added fuel to the fire.

0:31:49.360 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 2>And I mean, I know James Charles is quite problematic

0:31:52.640 --> 0:31:54.160
<v Speaker 2>and has done a lot of things, but at that

0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:57.320
<v Speaker 2>time I think he was getting a lot of unnecessary

0:31:57.360 --> 0:32:00.800
<v Speaker 2>hate and coppying a lot unnecessarily. She added fuel to

0:32:00.840 --> 0:32:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the fire, right and people weren't happy about that.

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:07.040
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, well, anyway, I like the new song, and

0:32:07.120 --> 0:32:09.880
<v Speaker 1>I think she's a great It's a great singer and dancer,

0:32:09.920 --> 0:32:12.200
<v Speaker 1>and you just need to go watch the music video.

0:32:12.520 --> 0:32:14.800
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't know that she was involved in any

0:32:14.880 --> 0:32:22.000
<v Speaker 1>past drama because I fucking can't keep up. Well, something

0:32:22.040 --> 0:32:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I've been loving on TikTok in the recent weeks, Matt is.

0:32:26.880 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if it's just these two creators or

0:32:28.680 --> 0:32:30.520
<v Speaker 1>if like it's a trend and everyone's doing it, but

0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I've favorited one of their videos. It's things that we're

0:32:34.760 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 1>happy we never have to do again, or just things

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 1>that we're happy to never do in general.

0:32:40.880 --> 0:32:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, things we've.

0:32:41.840 --> 0:32:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Just never done that we are so glad we never.

0:32:43.640 --> 0:32:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Have to do it. And you mean like mundane sort

0:32:45.360 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 2>of things. That isn't like the anti buckelist we did.

0:32:47.920 --> 0:32:49.240
<v Speaker 2>This is just like more.

0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, random little things. Okay, so let's listen to these two.

0:32:53.720 --> 0:32:56.360
<v Speaker 1>This is so well. Girls on TikTok.

0:32:56.600 --> 0:33:00.360
<v Speaker 4>Were happy we never have to do again. That I

0:33:00.440 --> 0:33:03.040
<v Speaker 4>never have to use a frat house bathroom ever again.

0:33:03.920 --> 0:33:06.840
<v Speaker 4>So happy I never have to take the sat ever again.

0:33:07.080 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 4>Preach I never have to call my friend's parents and

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:11.160
<v Speaker 4>ask if they're home.

0:33:11.480 --> 0:33:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Ever again.

0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 4>Never have to post my prom dress for approval and

0:33:15.120 --> 0:33:17.240
<v Speaker 4>a Facebook group filled with teenage girls.

0:33:17.600 --> 0:33:18.520
<v Speaker 1>We never did that.

0:33:18.960 --> 0:33:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, is that a thing where they go,

0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 2>this is my dress, no one else.

0:33:23.600 --> 0:33:25.760
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of smart so that people don't shot wearing

0:33:25.760 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 1>the same thing. What's something that you're glad you never

0:33:29.240 --> 0:33:31.480
<v Speaker 1>have to do again? Ah?

0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Take my learner driver's test, like or sorry, no, the

0:33:35.960 --> 0:33:37.160
<v Speaker 2>one to get your peas.

0:33:37.480 --> 0:33:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like the physical driving driving.

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:42.720
<v Speaker 2>To get your pee plates, your p license.

0:33:43.360 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Did you do yours in an order? A manual order, Yeah,

0:33:46.400 --> 0:33:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm manual.

0:33:47.440 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 2>So stressful, like just so stressful. I remember it being

0:33:51.120 --> 0:33:52.000
<v Speaker 2>so scary.

0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember my Nan and Pop as a present when

0:33:57.040 --> 0:34:01.080
<v Speaker 1>I got my l's they purchased me some driving lessons

0:34:01.080 --> 0:34:03.680
<v Speaker 1>with the NRMA, because you know, he can go to

0:34:03.760 --> 0:34:06.400
<v Speaker 1>driving school or whatever. So Nan and Pop purchased me

0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:09.320
<v Speaker 1>however many and I had this really nice, old lovely

0:34:09.360 --> 0:34:12.240
<v Speaker 1>man that was my teacher every time, and like obviously

0:34:12.280 --> 0:34:16.320
<v Speaker 1>I was learning with Chaz but also with the driving school.

0:34:17.160 --> 0:34:19.840
<v Speaker 1>And so that morning of my test, he took me

0:34:19.960 --> 0:34:22.080
<v Speaker 1>for like a one last drive and then I did

0:34:22.120 --> 0:34:24.879
<v Speaker 1>the test in like his car that I've been learning in,

0:34:25.480 --> 0:34:28.120
<v Speaker 1>and I got him straight away, same slay. Did you

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:30.120
<v Speaker 1>have to do a three point turn or a reverse park?

0:34:32.360 --> 0:34:33.600
<v Speaker 2>I think I was three point turn?

0:34:33.880 --> 0:34:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh lucky, Yeah I did reverse park.

0:34:36.760 --> 0:34:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Be sure you don't do by.

0:34:38.600 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Not you only do one or the other? Or back

0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:41.239
<v Speaker 1>then you only did one or the other.

0:34:42.760 --> 0:34:44.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I can't remember, but I think it might have

0:34:44.719 --> 0:34:45.680
<v Speaker 2>been a three point turn.

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:47.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm also glad that I never have to do.

0:34:47.719 --> 0:34:50.560
<v Speaker 2>That good at reverse parking though, always have been.

0:34:50.480 --> 0:34:53.839
<v Speaker 1>What without a reversing camera, Yeah for sure. Shit, see

0:34:53.840 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I've become so dependent on the reversing camera.

0:34:56.239 --> 0:34:58.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, now it would be probably a different story. No,

0:34:58.880 --> 0:35:01.560
<v Speaker 2>but I still remember you up to the window, back

0:35:01.760 --> 0:35:06.160
<v Speaker 2>a meter, turn your wheel completely in. Yeah, put yourself in.

0:35:06.200 --> 0:35:06.640
<v Speaker 2>They're done.

0:35:06.680 --> 0:35:09.239
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what's always hard, though, reverse parking when

0:35:09.239 --> 0:35:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you're on the right, you know, when you do it

0:35:12.040 --> 0:35:13.960
<v Speaker 1>like you used to going left, and then when the

0:35:14.000 --> 0:35:15.600
<v Speaker 1>weird times that you park on the right.

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:18.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. What are some things that you are glad you

0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:19.160
<v Speaker 2>never have to do again?

0:35:19.960 --> 0:35:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I am glad that I never have to line up

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:26.960
<v Speaker 1>outside a nightclub again. I couldn't think of anything fucking worse.

0:35:27.239 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 1>And I can't believe I used to voluntarily do that.

0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Hey, you'd stand there for half an hour in the.

0:35:31.920 --> 0:35:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Freezing cold in winter with my Jeffrey Campbell wedges in

0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:38.959
<v Speaker 1>a mini slipskirt from soup prey. Yeah, I'm glad. I'm

0:35:39.040 --> 0:35:42.680
<v Speaker 1>so glad that I never have to go clubbing again.

0:35:42.800 --> 0:35:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Well I probably will, to be honest, but just like

0:35:45.239 --> 0:35:48.880
<v Speaker 1>lining up voluntarily outside a nightclub.

0:35:49.280 --> 0:35:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I am glad I never have to go on school camp.

0:35:52.640 --> 0:35:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh really, because although school camp was fun, I don't

0:35:55.640 --> 0:35:59.120
<v Speaker 2>think it was worth the shivering. Remember getting up at

0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:00.239
<v Speaker 2>six am?

0:36:00.360 --> 0:36:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember. Yes, I was at one waking the

0:36:04.080 --> 0:36:04.840
<v Speaker 1>kids up.

0:36:05.040 --> 0:36:11.120
<v Speaker 2>And then that just the food was having to just

0:36:11.200 --> 0:36:14.120
<v Speaker 2>do team building exercises with people you never would have

0:36:14.160 --> 0:36:15.680
<v Speaker 2>even spoken to at school.

0:36:16.600 --> 0:36:18.399
<v Speaker 1>Remember when you have to do an activity and you'd

0:36:18.400 --> 0:36:22.200
<v Speaker 1>all hold hands in a circle whatever, with the point

0:36:22.239 --> 0:36:26.880
<v Speaker 1>that you didn't want to hold his so mean.

0:36:27.239 --> 0:36:29.400
<v Speaker 2>I am glad I never have to do a test

0:36:29.440 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 2>again like hs C VIS.

0:36:31.160 --> 0:36:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah me too, I used to get so stressed about that.

0:36:35.000 --> 0:36:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm also glad that I don't have to have homework

0:36:38.200 --> 0:36:40.719
<v Speaker 1>ever again. But in saying that, like is starting a

0:36:40.760 --> 0:36:43.680
<v Speaker 1>business and working at home just doing homework constantly for.

0:36:43.640 --> 0:36:46.279
<v Speaker 2>The rest of your life. Yes, I'm glad I never

0:36:46.320 --> 0:36:48.120
<v Speaker 2>have to sit in a school assembly and have my

0:36:48.160 --> 0:36:51.120
<v Speaker 2>feet go numb and get pins and needles in me

0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:54.000
<v Speaker 2>legs from sitting on the ground with my legs crossed

0:36:54.800 --> 0:36:55.960
<v Speaker 2>and having to listen.

0:36:55.719 --> 0:36:59.920
<v Speaker 3>To all the fucking bullshit that goes on the assembly.

0:37:00.000 --> 0:37:04.200
<v Speaker 3>He welcome to the assembly. This is everything. Year sevens

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:08.200
<v Speaker 3>are doing a cake stool next Tuesday. Bring a gold

0:37:08.239 --> 0:37:12.160
<v Speaker 3>coin donation for your Mufty day next Frida, Like, just

0:37:12.320 --> 0:37:15.320
<v Speaker 3>fucking do they still do school assemblies or surely everyone's

0:37:15.320 --> 0:37:18.839
<v Speaker 3>just getting a text these days. Surely just send out

0:37:18.880 --> 0:37:22.080
<v Speaker 3>a text, you know, just sit there for forty minutes.

0:37:22.120 --> 0:37:23.480
<v Speaker 1>And when you ever sit on the grass and it

0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:24.480
<v Speaker 1>was wet.

0:37:24.560 --> 0:37:29.240
<v Speaker 2>And remember the the principal would always do a speech

0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:32.160
<v Speaker 2>as well at the start and recap the week before

0:37:32.239 --> 0:37:33.240
<v Speaker 2>and all the things.

0:37:33.440 --> 0:37:34.280
<v Speaker 1>It's a quick whip.

0:37:34.640 --> 0:37:35.440
<v Speaker 3>It's quick.

0:37:37.640 --> 0:37:41.839
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of what's the word, not dystopian when you

0:37:41.880 --> 0:37:44.280
<v Speaker 2>think about it, but it's kind of it. Very school

0:37:44.280 --> 0:37:47.399
<v Speaker 2>assemblies give dictatorship now that I think about it, don't they,

0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:51.080
<v Speaker 2>you know? Because I remember my school principle in like

0:37:51.200 --> 0:37:53.439
<v Speaker 2>year eleven or twelve, E'd stand up there and he'd

0:37:53.440 --> 0:37:56.000
<v Speaker 2>give a speech like his life fucking depended on it,

0:37:56.080 --> 0:37:58.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, like he'd be getting to pay rise if

0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:01.560
<v Speaker 2>this speech did any work. But he tell us about

0:38:01.600 --> 0:38:04.160
<v Speaker 2>when he climbed Mount Everest and all this, and I

0:38:04.200 --> 0:38:07.560
<v Speaker 2>think it was too still some sort of like drive

0:38:07.680 --> 0:38:11.080
<v Speaker 2>into all of us. But it's eight fucking degrees in

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:13.000
<v Speaker 2>the middle of the winter and I'm sitting on cold

0:38:13.400 --> 0:38:16.280
<v Speaker 2>ashphalt in the quad with my legs cross.

0:38:16.120 --> 0:38:19.919
<v Speaker 1>Our plass on a field. See high school, we would

0:38:19.920 --> 0:38:21.439
<v Speaker 1>do it on the field, and we'dn't just sit there

0:38:21.440 --> 0:38:23.720
<v Speaker 1>pulling the grass out like we're just ruined the grass.

0:38:23.760 --> 0:38:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Then we get yelled at for that.

0:38:25.200 --> 0:38:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Ah. Yeah, school assembly is so strange. And then you'd

0:38:29.040 --> 0:38:33.240
<v Speaker 2>have someone from the SRC representative come up and say something.

0:38:33.360 --> 0:38:36.200
<v Speaker 2>And I almost want to go and experience this school

0:38:36.239 --> 0:38:37.600
<v Speaker 2>assembly just one more time.

0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Teachers, can you let us know please in our broadcast channel.

0:38:40.840 --> 0:38:44.839
<v Speaker 1>Do school assemblies still happen the same yeah as they

0:38:44.880 --> 0:38:46.560
<v Speaker 1>did back in the day or is it just a

0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:50.120
<v Speaker 1>little text or a notification in some app now? Because

0:38:50.120 --> 0:38:52.000
<v Speaker 1>they'll tell you what's wild to me. We've spoken about

0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:54.120
<v Speaker 1>it on the pod before the fact that you do

0:38:54.239 --> 0:38:57.640
<v Speaker 1>a school lunch order on the app. Now that's crazy

0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:57.960
<v Speaker 1>to me.

0:38:59.040 --> 0:38:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Something else that I'm glad that I never have to

0:39:02.480 --> 0:39:06.799
<v Speaker 1>do again. While we're on the topic, just going and

0:39:06.880 --> 0:39:10.799
<v Speaker 1>chatting with your school careers advisor. Oh yeah, I dreaded that.

0:39:11.520 --> 0:39:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, or just excursions in general.

0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, I would go as far as saying I'm glad.

0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean I probably might at some stage in my life,

0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:22.160
<v Speaker 1>but I'm glad I never have to go on an

0:39:22.160 --> 0:39:25.640
<v Speaker 1>excursion on a bus because I get motion sickness so badly.

0:39:25.840 --> 0:39:27.200
<v Speaker 1>And I was just that kid that was sick the

0:39:27.200 --> 0:39:28.600
<v Speaker 1>whole three hour drive.

0:39:28.719 --> 0:39:33.360
<v Speaker 2>Right, I don't understand why you get motion sickness so badly.

0:39:34.200 --> 0:39:36.120
<v Speaker 1>It's got something to do with the water levels and

0:39:36.200 --> 0:39:36.800
<v Speaker 1>your ears.

0:39:36.600 --> 0:39:39.720
<v Speaker 2>And your eye. Surely you can go to a doctor

0:39:39.760 --> 0:39:42.640
<v Speaker 2>and get some sort of operation for that, because it

0:39:43.280 --> 0:39:47.200
<v Speaker 2>pissed everyone. It pisses everyone off. You know what. Sorry,

0:39:47.360 --> 0:39:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Where where were we and you were getting motion sickness.

0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:50.840
<v Speaker 1>In the Weimo?

0:39:51.840 --> 0:39:55.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, there was somewhere else as well. Yeah, it

0:39:55.440 --> 0:39:57.160
<v Speaker 2>was the Waimo that was a self drive.

0:39:57.280 --> 0:39:58.759
<v Speaker 1>There's something else, somewhere else.

0:39:59.239 --> 0:40:02.120
<v Speaker 2>I think there was so somewhere else. Oh, I don't know,

0:40:03.360 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, or maybe on the coach Ella coaches. Yeah,

0:40:08.719 --> 0:40:10.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Anyway, there.

0:40:10.719 --> 0:40:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I remember when Aj and I went to Bali one

0:40:13.239 --> 0:40:15.759
<v Speaker 1>time and we caught a boat, like we went going

0:40:15.800 --> 0:40:18.240
<v Speaker 1>on like a surfing trip. So we caught a boat

0:40:18.320 --> 0:40:21.200
<v Speaker 1>out to the middle of the ocean and then the

0:40:21.200 --> 0:40:23.960
<v Speaker 1>boat dropped us, and so we were just sitting on

0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:26.360
<v Speaker 1>our surfboards. I was getting motion sickness on that and

0:40:26.400 --> 0:40:29.160
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't get it to go away because I was

0:40:29.200 --> 0:40:30.560
<v Speaker 1>just in the middle of the ocean like there was

0:40:30.560 --> 0:40:34.600
<v Speaker 1>no land. Worst feeling. Doesn't Sky get it too, Yeah,

0:40:34.640 --> 0:40:36.600
<v Speaker 1>he does, worst feeling. I hate it.

0:40:36.920 --> 0:40:40.600
<v Speaker 2>I just think, grow up. You know, it's motion sickness

0:40:40.719 --> 0:40:44.080
<v Speaker 2>is not a real illness. Okay, You'll just need to

0:40:44.120 --> 0:40:46.040
<v Speaker 2>suck it up and move on.

0:40:46.800 --> 0:40:48.840
<v Speaker 1>It only sucks because I get it on rides, so

0:40:48.840 --> 0:40:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I just can't do rides.

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:58.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's just pathetic. Grow up anyway? What else?

0:40:58.719 --> 0:41:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Anything else? I can't think, if anything else that, I

0:41:01.239 --> 0:41:06.160
<v Speaker 2>am glad I never have to do again except hand

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:10.200
<v Speaker 2>in a resume, hand in a physical resume at a shop.

0:41:10.280 --> 0:41:12.279
<v Speaker 2>You know, you'd print out your resume and you go

0:41:12.320 --> 0:41:15.239
<v Speaker 2>down to bay Villeage and you'd go to every shop

0:41:15.280 --> 0:41:17.200
<v Speaker 2>you wanted to work in and you go, hell, I

0:41:17.280 --> 0:41:18.719
<v Speaker 2>just want to hand in a resume, and you just

0:41:18.800 --> 0:41:19.759
<v Speaker 2>knew they were throwing it in.

0:41:19.760 --> 0:41:22.320
<v Speaker 1>The places that you really wanted to work when you

0:41:22.400 --> 0:41:25.120
<v Speaker 1>were younger, and you didn't ever like apply there or

0:41:25.160 --> 0:41:27.360
<v Speaker 1>get a job. Because for me, the two places that

0:41:27.440 --> 0:41:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to work so badly, first of all was

0:41:29.640 --> 0:41:32.919
<v Speaker 1>Boost Juice because everyone that worked there was so cool

0:41:32.960 --> 0:41:35.080
<v Speaker 1>and they wore the bandanna like I think That's why

0:41:35.080 --> 0:41:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to work there. And the second place was

0:41:37.239 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 1>sou Prey.

0:41:38.200 --> 0:41:44.200
<v Speaker 2>Okay, mine was time Zone. I loved time Zone. And

0:41:44.280 --> 0:41:46.880
<v Speaker 2>the other place I really wanted to work was KFC.

0:41:47.760 --> 0:41:51.040
<v Speaker 2>And I put in an application for KC and they

0:41:51.080 --> 0:41:54.920
<v Speaker 2>rejected me almost straight away. So I put another application

0:41:55.120 --> 0:41:58.719
<v Speaker 2>in and they rejected me almost straight away again, and

0:41:58.760 --> 0:42:00.920
<v Speaker 2>I went, this is strange. Then I I applied for

0:42:00.960 --> 0:42:03.400
<v Speaker 2>a different store on the Central Coast, and I was

0:42:03.440 --> 0:42:05.400
<v Speaker 2>just making my way around them all and I was

0:42:05.440 --> 0:42:07.840
<v Speaker 2>applying and I just kept getting rejected all the time.

0:42:08.320 --> 0:42:10.040
<v Speaker 2>And I said to one of my friends who worked

0:42:10.040 --> 0:42:12.520
<v Speaker 2>at case. I said, because at this point I'd been unemployed.

0:42:12.840 --> 0:42:17.400
<v Speaker 2>This was even this was after high school. And I

0:42:17.440 --> 0:42:22.200
<v Speaker 2>had I had a job on the coast, working at

0:42:22.239 --> 0:42:25.040
<v Speaker 2>Perfume Forever, which is still at Tagra. I I went

0:42:25.080 --> 0:42:29.560
<v Speaker 2>to Tugra and Perfume Forever is still there and I

0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:31.799
<v Speaker 2>was working there. But then this was around the time,

0:42:31.840 --> 0:42:34.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, we'd all finished high school and people were

0:42:34.320 --> 0:42:38.160
<v Speaker 2>going to People were leaving the Central Coast at the time,

0:42:38.600 --> 0:42:41.320
<v Speaker 2>so people were going and getting jobs. I mean, everyone

0:42:41.400 --> 0:42:42.920
<v Speaker 2>was kind of still living on the Central Coast, but

0:42:42.960 --> 0:42:44.920
<v Speaker 2>they were getting jobs in Sydney or I had a

0:42:44.920 --> 0:42:48.160
<v Speaker 2>friend going to the Fashion Institute in Sydney. Everyone was

0:42:48.160 --> 0:42:51.799
<v Speaker 2>starting to go to different universities in Sydney and they

0:42:51.800 --> 0:42:54.600
<v Speaker 2>were kind of escaping the bubble of the Central Coast.

0:42:54.640 --> 0:42:56.680
<v Speaker 2>And at the time, I was like, I want to

0:42:56.680 --> 0:42:58.880
<v Speaker 2>do this as well. And I was friends with a

0:42:58.920 --> 0:43:02.160
<v Speaker 2>few people who were getting jobs in a call center

0:43:02.800 --> 0:43:05.640
<v Speaker 2>down there, and I applied with the job and I

0:43:05.680 --> 0:43:07.360
<v Speaker 2>got it, so I was working at Perfume Forever. I

0:43:07.400 --> 0:43:09.279
<v Speaker 2>got the job at the call center. So then mat

0:43:09.320 --> 0:43:11.680
<v Speaker 2>took my days. I just, oh, my fucking god, why

0:43:11.719 --> 0:43:14.320
<v Speaker 2>did I bother doing this? I had it so sweet

0:43:14.440 --> 0:43:17.799
<v Speaker 2>and cushy at Perfume Forever. I was working in the

0:43:17.800 --> 0:43:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Perfume Store Love and Life, and then all of a sudden,

0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:23.600
<v Speaker 2>I went from that to having to get up at

0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:26.719
<v Speaker 2>four thirty in the morning, catch the train down from

0:43:26.760 --> 0:43:29.239
<v Speaker 2>a Rimba station because I lived at Wholegate at the time,

0:43:29.280 --> 0:43:32.279
<v Speaker 2>nowhere near a fucking train station. Most difficult thing ever,

0:43:33.120 --> 0:43:36.319
<v Speaker 2>Go to a Rima station, wait for the second train

0:43:36.360 --> 0:43:40.320
<v Speaker 2>because the first train was always full. Ah, second train down,

0:43:40.719 --> 0:43:44.399
<v Speaker 2>work all day, nine to five, get back on the train,

0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:46.200
<v Speaker 2>come home. I remember I'd get up at like four

0:43:46.400 --> 0:43:48.319
<v Speaker 2>thirty and I'd get home at like nine thirty, and

0:43:48.360 --> 0:43:52.719
<v Speaker 2>I'd be like why, and I'd you know, at first,

0:43:52.800 --> 0:43:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I was like, this is amazing. I'm all grown up.

0:43:55.120 --> 0:43:56.040
<v Speaker 1>And nine to five.

0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:57.960
<v Speaker 2>I look back and I go nine to five, more

0:43:58.000 --> 0:44:01.560
<v Speaker 2>like forty nine love till nine pm, because that's how

0:44:01.560 --> 0:44:03.000
<v Speaker 2>long it til, including the travel.

0:44:03.160 --> 0:44:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Where have I told the story on this podcast about

0:44:05.400 --> 0:44:07.680
<v Speaker 1>how I had the job, my first like nine to

0:44:07.760 --> 0:44:11.080
<v Speaker 1>five job, but it was selling the pay TV Yes.

0:44:10.840 --> 0:44:12.719
<v Speaker 2>You've told it three times.

0:44:12.480 --> 0:44:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and where I only worked for commissions, so I

0:44:15.880 --> 0:44:18.080
<v Speaker 1>was doing the same things but only going to Maitland,

0:44:18.160 --> 0:44:20.560
<v Speaker 1>not as far but for commission only.

0:44:20.600 --> 0:44:23.239
<v Speaker 2>So basically I actually had a really bad experience at

0:44:23.280 --> 0:44:26.719
<v Speaker 2>that workplace, and like they were quite homophobic and I

0:44:26.840 --> 0:44:30.359
<v Speaker 2>ended up it was a situation where they kind of

0:44:30.400 --> 0:44:32.480
<v Speaker 2>like drove me out. I actually did a storytelle about

0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:33.799
<v Speaker 2>this on YouTube once upon a time.

0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:36.360
<v Speaker 1>I think I lightly told it in an episode.

0:44:36.360 --> 0:44:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I was accidentally honor. I accidentally heard one of them

0:44:42.400 --> 0:44:45.560
<v Speaker 2>call me a slur and then bring me in to

0:44:45.719 --> 0:44:48.399
<v Speaker 2>basically to fire me. But I quit before they could

0:44:48.440 --> 0:44:51.600
<v Speaker 2>fire me because they were just so homophobic and it

0:44:51.600 --> 0:44:53.800
<v Speaker 2>was quite triggering. Because then it became the Pedestrian Office,

0:44:53.800 --> 0:44:56.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, pedestrian TV journalsy and I did some work

0:44:56.719 --> 0:44:58.719
<v Speaker 2>with them, and I remember going in and I was like, oh,

0:44:58.719 --> 0:45:00.720
<v Speaker 2>this is the same building and it was the same floor.

0:45:00.760 --> 0:45:02.600
<v Speaker 2>And then the girl that I was working with on

0:45:02.640 --> 0:45:04.960
<v Speaker 2>the pedestrian things she sat at my fucking desk that

0:45:05.000 --> 0:45:06.359
<v Speaker 2>I used to sit at, and I was like, oh

0:45:06.400 --> 0:45:08.120
<v Speaker 2>my god, this is so weird. So I don't know

0:45:08.200 --> 0:45:09.799
<v Speaker 2>what happened to the call center, but it obviously wasn't

0:45:09.840 --> 0:45:12.640
<v Speaker 2>there anymore anyway. So because of that, I got I

0:45:12.680 --> 0:45:14.759
<v Speaker 2>was really depressed and also had no money, and I

0:45:14.800 --> 0:45:18.560
<v Speaker 2>was unemployed for I think eleven months, and I was

0:45:19.040 --> 0:45:21.359
<v Speaker 2>trying to get a job everywhere, but there just was

0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:30.040
<v Speaker 2>no jobs going that were suitable for me. And anyway,

0:45:30.120 --> 0:45:31.960
<v Speaker 2>I got to the point where I was supplying at

0:45:31.960 --> 0:45:34.960
<v Speaker 2>all the KFCs, McDonald's and all the rest of that.

0:45:34.960 --> 0:45:36.960
<v Speaker 2>That's when I ended up getting the job at McDonald's.

0:45:37.600 --> 0:45:39.759
<v Speaker 2>But I was applying at KFC and one of my

0:45:39.800 --> 0:45:41.759
<v Speaker 2>friends worked ATKC and she was a manager and she

0:45:41.840 --> 0:45:44.279
<v Speaker 2>was like, I can't hire you at my one. But

0:45:44.400 --> 0:45:47.319
<v Speaker 2>I've told the girl at Mingara, I think it was

0:45:47.680 --> 0:45:50.400
<v Speaker 2>if you apply there, she'll hire you. You just have

0:45:50.480 --> 0:45:53.280
<v Speaker 2>to apply blah blahlah. And I'm like, I just applied

0:45:53.600 --> 0:45:56.040
<v Speaker 2>and it rejected me straight away, and she's like, let

0:45:56.040 --> 0:45:59.040
<v Speaker 2>me look into it for you. So anyway, because because

0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:02.560
<v Speaker 2>she said that her friend at Miingara didn't have the

0:46:02.880 --> 0:46:05.480
<v Speaker 2>like wasn't getting my applications at all, Like the system

0:46:05.600 --> 0:46:10.560
<v Speaker 2>was rejecting me before she even got it in her inbox. Yeah,

0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:13.680
<v Speaker 2>And they figured out that I was answering one of

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:17.239
<v Speaker 2>the like critical questions wrong about like you know when

0:46:17.239 --> 0:46:19.040
<v Speaker 2>you apply for jobs, and it'd be like what would

0:46:19.080 --> 0:46:22.279
<v Speaker 2>you do in this situation to resolve the conflict? And

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.359
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember what it was, but it has four

0:46:24.440 --> 0:46:26.160
<v Speaker 2>options of what would you do? And one of them

0:46:26.239 --> 0:46:28.360
<v Speaker 2>was like, punch the customer in the face, and the

0:46:28.360 --> 0:46:30.239
<v Speaker 2>other one was like it wrong. The other one was like,

0:46:30.320 --> 0:46:34.080
<v Speaker 2>go to a manager and get this. And my answer

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:39.239
<v Speaker 2>would always be to resolve the try and resolve the

0:46:39.239 --> 0:46:43.560
<v Speaker 2>issue myself first before involving your manager. Yeah, that's just

0:46:43.600 --> 0:46:45.839
<v Speaker 2>like that wasn't the right answer. It was just go

0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:48.359
<v Speaker 2>and get a manager straight away. Have you ever worked

0:46:48.360 --> 0:46:50.480
<v Speaker 2>in a fast food fucking restaurant and gone to try

0:46:50.480 --> 0:46:52.600
<v Speaker 2>and get your manager. They want to shoot you in

0:46:52.640 --> 0:46:55.200
<v Speaker 2>the face, like no one wants. They don't want to help.

0:46:57.400 --> 0:46:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Just make sure you go and get your manager and

0:46:59.560 --> 0:47:01.640
<v Speaker 2>they will sorted out. Every time I worked in a

0:47:01.640 --> 0:47:03.360
<v Speaker 2>fast food joined and I went out to my manager

0:47:03.400 --> 0:47:05.600
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, hey, sorry, I've got a customer

0:47:05.640 --> 0:47:11.400
<v Speaker 2>on that, and they'd caused this big color balloo about helping,

0:47:11.520 --> 0:47:13.600
<v Speaker 2>but it's like that's what we're meant to do. So

0:47:13.680 --> 0:47:16.680
<v Speaker 2>when I filled out the application for KFC, I said

0:47:17.239 --> 0:47:20.960
<v Speaker 2>I would try and resolve at myself with before bothering

0:47:21.000 --> 0:47:24.719
<v Speaker 2>my manager, and they rejected me straight away because that's

0:47:24.760 --> 0:47:28.239
<v Speaker 2>not what you should have done, and you should have

0:47:28.280 --> 0:47:30.680
<v Speaker 2>just got the manager straight away. But from my experience

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:34.880
<v Speaker 2>working in retail and fast food. No manager wants to

0:47:34.920 --> 0:47:36.680
<v Speaker 2>be annoyed for no reason if you can sort the

0:47:36.680 --> 0:47:38.200
<v Speaker 2>problem out yourself in the first place.

0:47:39.920 --> 0:47:42.839
<v Speaker 1>I just had a little flashback memory of like when

0:47:42.880 --> 0:47:46.680
<v Speaker 1>I was maybe fourteen or thirteen, or twelve.

0:47:47.320 --> 0:47:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Or eleven or ten or nine or eight.

0:47:50.440 --> 0:47:55.640
<v Speaker 1>We used to prank like all the local macazine, like

0:47:56.000 --> 0:47:57.160
<v Speaker 1>prank call them.

0:47:57.480 --> 0:47:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I never did a prank call.

0:47:59.480 --> 0:48:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I did so many prank calls like that was my thing.

0:48:02.880 --> 0:48:04.239
<v Speaker 2>No, I never did a prank call.

0:48:04.320 --> 0:48:06.239
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think the pranks were ever good. Like

0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:08.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it was like calling and not saying anything.

0:48:09.120 --> 0:48:11.359
<v Speaker 2>I was too scared I'd get in trouble, like they'd

0:48:11.360 --> 0:48:14.760
<v Speaker 2>trace me phone back, yeah, or they call the police,

0:48:14.840 --> 0:48:17.280
<v Speaker 2>or I wouldn't put my phone on do not disturb,

0:48:18.920 --> 0:48:21.520
<v Speaker 2>not to not disturb, no caller idea. Oh yeah, you know,

0:48:21.560 --> 0:48:22.680
<v Speaker 2>and they could trace it back.

0:48:24.080 --> 0:48:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I used to love a prank call on the home phone.

0:48:27.320 --> 0:48:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, Oh, how long has it been since you've

0:48:31.520 --> 0:48:32.760
<v Speaker 2>had the same mobile number?

0:48:32.800 --> 0:48:35.560
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I've had the one my whole life.

0:48:35.640 --> 0:48:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Okay, why crazy because I thought I'd had the same

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:42.240
<v Speaker 2>one my whole life. But I went out for dinner

0:48:42.280 --> 0:48:45.879
<v Speaker 2>with my friends, not long ago, and I haven't seen

0:48:45.920 --> 0:48:48.880
<v Speaker 2>them in a long time. So one of one of

0:48:48.880 --> 0:48:52.319
<v Speaker 2>my friends, so we were like all friends in high school, right,

0:48:52.360 --> 0:48:56.040
<v Speaker 2>the three of us at Berkeley, our campus, and it

0:48:56.080 --> 0:48:58.239
<v Speaker 2>was May, Corey and Sarah. I went out for dinner

0:48:58.280 --> 0:49:01.279
<v Speaker 2>with Sarah not long ago, and she was telling me

0:49:01.320 --> 0:49:04.040
<v Speaker 2>that she works with Corey now, and I was like,

0:49:04.080 --> 0:49:05.840
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, well what's he doing. Let's go and

0:49:05.840 --> 0:49:07.799
<v Speaker 2>see hi blah blah blah blah, because I haven't seen

0:49:07.880 --> 0:49:09.879
<v Speaker 2>him in I want to say, over ten years, right,

0:49:10.400 --> 0:49:13.200
<v Speaker 2>So we went and caught up, and then you know,

0:49:13.360 --> 0:49:15.400
<v Speaker 2>Corey and I were saying, we haven't spoken to one

0:49:15.440 --> 0:49:17.680
<v Speaker 2>another in such a long time. I mean the only

0:49:18.239 --> 0:49:20.520
<v Speaker 2>place I had him because I don't think he does

0:49:20.560 --> 0:49:22.319
<v Speaker 2>social media, but the only place I had him on

0:49:22.440 --> 0:49:27.520
<v Speaker 2>was Snapchat, but I don't use that. So anyway, the

0:49:27.640 --> 0:49:31.439
<v Speaker 2>long story short is he I was like, oh, well

0:49:31.520 --> 0:49:33.560
<v Speaker 2>just text me. You know, we can text each other

0:49:33.640 --> 0:49:36.840
<v Speaker 2>now now that we're back in contact. You've got my number,

0:49:37.560 --> 0:49:40.120
<v Speaker 2>And he pulled up this fucking phone number that he

0:49:40.600 --> 0:49:44.080
<v Speaker 2>had saved for me, and I have never heard that

0:49:44.200 --> 0:49:47.640
<v Speaker 2>number in my entire life. But I swear I've only

0:49:47.680 --> 0:49:51.200
<v Speaker 2>ever had the one mobile number and it's never changed.

0:49:51.520 --> 0:49:54.760
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, then it got me thinking because

0:49:55.080 --> 0:49:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Sarah then checked her phone and said, I've actually got

0:49:57.920 --> 0:50:00.880
<v Speaker 2>like four numbers for you from throughout the years, and

0:50:00.880 --> 0:50:02.600
<v Speaker 2>then she had all these numbers as well.

0:50:02.640 --> 0:50:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I've only had the one since I got my first

0:50:06.040 --> 0:50:08.920
<v Speaker 1>ever phone. And do you want to know how I

0:50:08.960 --> 0:50:13.560
<v Speaker 1>know it was because I signed up with Telstra back

0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:16.560
<v Speaker 1>in the day, Like that's who I got it through.

0:50:17.040 --> 0:50:21.160
<v Speaker 1>And back then I got it for my fourteenth birthday.

0:50:21.600 --> 0:50:25.320
<v Speaker 1>It was my first ever phone, the Nokia twenty one hundred,

0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:28.319
<v Speaker 1>the one that was above the thirty three fifteen with

0:50:28.480 --> 0:50:32.440
<v Speaker 1>like the white slash blue light up screen. And because

0:50:32.440 --> 0:50:35.520
<v Speaker 1>it was obviously so long ago, not all the mobile

0:50:35.560 --> 0:50:37.560
<v Speaker 1>numbers in the world were like taken up as much

0:50:37.560 --> 0:50:40.319
<v Speaker 1>as they are now. So I got to customize my

0:50:40.719 --> 0:50:44.000
<v Speaker 1>mobile number. And if I if I say this on

0:50:44.040 --> 0:50:47.879
<v Speaker 1>the pod, I'm giving away six digits of my phone

0:50:47.960 --> 0:50:48.680
<v Speaker 1>number in order.

0:50:48.880 --> 0:50:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh I don't think I will. I don't think you should.

0:50:51.320 --> 0:50:53.520
<v Speaker 1>But then do you know how many like there's two

0:50:53.600 --> 0:50:55.560
<v Speaker 1>numbers missing, It.

0:50:55.560 --> 0:50:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Wouldn't be it wouldn't take them that long to figure.

0:50:57.600 --> 0:51:00.920
<v Speaker 1>It out out of every number combination in the world.

0:51:01.440 --> 0:51:03.239
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, there'd only been ninety nine.

0:51:03.840 --> 0:51:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh true, but then they've because.

0:51:06.280 --> 0:51:09.160
<v Speaker 2>If they've got the six, they've got four and then

0:51:09.239 --> 0:51:10.839
<v Speaker 2>the six, and then they just need to figure out

0:51:10.840 --> 0:51:11.680
<v Speaker 2>there's only ninety nine.

0:51:11.719 --> 0:51:14.600
<v Speaker 1>It could be well, okay, i'll tell you on the pod,

0:51:14.719 --> 0:51:16.279
<v Speaker 1>but we can beep it out.

0:51:16.480 --> 0:51:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:51:17.800 --> 0:51:20.759
<v Speaker 1>But I just remember being so excited because back then

0:51:20.920 --> 0:51:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you could choose what your mobile number was, because back

0:51:24.680 --> 0:51:27.640
<v Speaker 1>then we were still using like the letters on the

0:51:27.719 --> 0:51:31.280
<v Speaker 1>keypad kind of thing. My mobile number has a word

0:51:31.360 --> 0:51:31.680
<v Speaker 1>in it.

0:51:32.040 --> 0:51:34.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but say the word, but we'll beep it out.

0:51:34.800 --> 0:51:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, beat this out, Hannah. So my mobile number is,

0:51:38.400 --> 0:51:41.760
<v Speaker 1>oh four, I couldn't pick those two. But then it's.

0:51:45.600 --> 0:51:47.560
<v Speaker 2>That is so funny because no one even guessed that

0:51:47.600 --> 0:51:50.239
<v Speaker 2>word no, because like, when has that When have you

0:51:50.280 --> 0:51:51.239
<v Speaker 2>ever said that?

0:51:51.440 --> 0:51:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? I know, but that's been my number ever since.

0:51:54.080 --> 0:51:57.160
<v Speaker 1>And so back in the day again, Hannah, beat this out,

0:51:57.440 --> 0:52:04.080
<v Speaker 1>when people would ask one my number, Oh my god, yeah.

0:52:03.560 --> 0:52:06.320
<v Speaker 2>That is so fun Yeah. Yeah, my mum got to

0:52:06.400 --> 0:52:11.800
<v Speaker 2>choose hers, and she chose the same number as our

0:52:11.840 --> 0:52:16.800
<v Speaker 2>home phone number. Oh yeah, but obviously you got four

0:52:16.880 --> 0:52:19.040
<v Speaker 2>and we had four to three as our home number.

0:52:19.160 --> 0:52:22.000
<v Speaker 2>So four three three four, so she was like O

0:52:22.239 --> 0:52:25.160
<v Speaker 2>four three four and then the rest of the home

0:52:25.280 --> 0:52:27.239
<v Speaker 2>number home number, No, no, maybe it.

0:52:27.200 --> 0:52:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Was four four nine. I'm trying to remember if I

0:52:31.200 --> 0:52:34.759
<v Speaker 1>remember my home phone number. No, I don't remember my

0:52:35.440 --> 0:52:35.840
<v Speaker 1>oh I do.

0:52:35.920 --> 0:52:37.680
<v Speaker 2>It was really easy, though, I don't know if my

0:52:37.760 --> 0:52:40.000
<v Speaker 2>mum chose that as well. It was really easy.

0:52:40.560 --> 0:52:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Nine. I started in four nine in Newcastle.

0:52:43.080 --> 0:52:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you an example of what mine was. So

0:52:45.000 --> 0:52:47.120
<v Speaker 2>mine was like but someone would still have it.

0:52:47.280 --> 0:52:49.279
<v Speaker 1>You're doing them kind to.

0:52:49.280 --> 0:52:51.839
<v Speaker 2>Beat this out mine now, mine would be like four

0:52:51.920 --> 0:52:55.719
<v Speaker 2>three three, four five one five one, like really easy, right,

0:52:55.840 --> 0:52:58.000
<v Speaker 2>But they're not the right numbers. But that's like right

0:52:58.239 --> 0:52:59.440
<v Speaker 2>what it would because if I coul told you the

0:52:59.480 --> 0:53:01.640
<v Speaker 2>right numbers, then you don't know me mums. I mean,

0:53:01.719 --> 0:53:04.120
<v Speaker 2>give her a fucking call if if you want to.

0:53:05.160 --> 0:53:07.319
<v Speaker 2>In fact, my mum's a business woman's probably got a

0:53:07.400 --> 0:53:10.560
<v Speaker 2>number all over a social media anyway. Everyone probably bloody

0:53:10.560 --> 0:53:11.000
<v Speaker 2>knows it.

0:53:11.080 --> 0:53:14.160
<v Speaker 1>But I've had the same mobile number since forever and

0:53:14.160 --> 0:53:15.040
<v Speaker 1>it's quite iconic.

0:53:15.080 --> 0:53:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Actually, yeah that is.

0:53:16.440 --> 0:53:19.880
<v Speaker 1>And do you want to know something else iconic, which, again, Hannah,

0:53:19.960 --> 0:53:22.839
<v Speaker 1>you'll have to beep it out, but I'll even show you.

0:53:22.880 --> 0:53:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Matt so I set it up to be that way.

0:53:26.440 --> 0:53:28.560
<v Speaker 1>But maybe Hannah, you can just beat out all that,

0:53:28.640 --> 0:53:33.520
<v Speaker 1>because then people will start guessing. Yeah, oh well, anyway.

0:53:33.239 --> 0:53:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Even if they call you, they'll only call you for

0:53:35.040 --> 0:53:36.680
<v Speaker 2>a couple of days before they get over it.

0:53:36.840 --> 0:53:39.080
<v Speaker 1>They will only call me and ask for a fake discount.

0:53:39.239 --> 0:53:42.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, do you want to give one in this episode?

0:53:42.400 --> 0:53:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? What should we you pick? It? Done this for

0:53:53.239 --> 0:53:57.040
<v Speaker 1>the longest time? Hey, yeah, Okay, it's been like over

0:53:57.040 --> 0:53:59.400
<v Speaker 1>a year since we did the last secret fake code.

0:53:59.520 --> 0:54:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna make it right now, otherwise I will absolutely.

0:54:02.360 --> 0:54:05.920
<v Speaker 2>Forget Okay, do what can make it?

0:54:07.520 --> 0:54:10.160
<v Speaker 1>And when is it going to expire after this episode

0:54:10.160 --> 0:54:10.640
<v Speaker 1>goes out?

0:54:11.120 --> 0:54:14.720
<v Speaker 2>I think we've got to give him at least the week, okay,

0:54:14.800 --> 0:54:17.479
<v Speaker 2>because if you don't listen in the week, then that's
