0:01:03.007 --> 0:01:04.447
<v Speaker 3>A Freedman's logis night.

0:01:05.647 --> 0:01:08.767
<v Speaker 2>It's our bests and worse of the week. But first,

0:01:08.847 --> 0:01:10.647
<v Speaker 2>Jesse Stevens.

0:01:09.967 --> 0:01:12.447
<v Speaker 4>In case he missed it, there is a word you

0:01:12.447 --> 0:01:15.567
<v Speaker 4>can no longer call your colleague. Maya, are you listening.

0:01:16.487 --> 0:01:19.007
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's so many there are I am I allowed

0:01:19.047 --> 0:01:20.567
<v Speaker 1>to use the S word even though I do use

0:01:20.607 --> 0:01:21.687
<v Speaker 1>it as a term of effection.

0:01:21.807 --> 0:01:24.567
<v Speaker 4>Get your pen out and write this down. And Ossie

0:01:24.567 --> 0:01:28.007
<v Speaker 4>mayor named Tom Tate has now formally apologized for a

0:01:28.047 --> 0:01:30.847
<v Speaker 4>word he used to describe a colleague. He thought it

0:01:30.887 --> 0:01:33.847
<v Speaker 4>was a lighthearted comment, but it ended up prompting a

0:01:33.887 --> 0:01:38.167
<v Speaker 4>full blown investigation. So what did he call MP John

0:01:38.247 --> 0:01:46.247
<v Speaker 4>Paul Langbrook? He called him a ranger In a press conference,

0:01:46.407 --> 0:01:50.247
<v Speaker 4>Tate said, you know, lose one ranger, get another ranger.

0:01:50.487 --> 0:01:52.807
<v Speaker 4>What the hell that's what the Gold Coast is all about.

0:01:53.167 --> 0:01:54.447
<v Speaker 4>I don't understand.

0:01:54.167 --> 0:01:59.967
<v Speaker 1>He's so hashtagged at diversity. Yes quite Gold Coast.

0:01:59.847 --> 0:02:03.927
<v Speaker 4>Tom Tate did. But the Office of the Independent Assessor

0:02:04.447 --> 0:02:07.607
<v Speaker 4>we're not impressed in its determination. They said. While the

0:02:07.647 --> 0:02:10.087
<v Speaker 4>conduct may well be argued to be in jest or

0:02:10.087 --> 0:02:13.687
<v Speaker 4>intended to be humorous, it was considered that the term

0:02:14.047 --> 0:02:18.927
<v Speaker 4>ranger was still capable of being discriminatory and unreasonably causing

0:02:18.967 --> 0:02:22.647
<v Speaker 4>offence to particular groups. The complaint was also said to

0:02:22.767 --> 0:02:25.807
<v Speaker 4>raise various concerns about the use of the term, including

0:02:25.887 --> 0:02:27.567
<v Speaker 4>its reference to orangutanks.

0:02:27.807 --> 0:02:30.127
<v Speaker 1>The person who was called a ranger. Was not the

0:02:30.167 --> 0:02:31.967
<v Speaker 1>one that complained. It's because the mayor put this on

0:02:32.407 --> 0:02:34.407
<v Speaker 1>a light outed Facebook post with a picture of this

0:02:34.487 --> 0:02:38.447
<v Speaker 1>guy is made, I think, and other people complained about it.

0:02:38.527 --> 0:02:40.327
<v Speaker 4>So what do you think, ma'am? Do you think that

0:02:40.367 --> 0:02:42.367
<v Speaker 4>you have the right to call an employee a ranger

0:02:42.407 --> 0:02:42.887
<v Speaker 4>to their face?

0:02:43.007 --> 0:02:46.207
<v Speaker 1>I would never because I think you've got to listen

0:02:46.247 --> 0:02:50.087
<v Speaker 1>to the people who are the thing, the rangers. You

0:02:50.167 --> 0:02:52.367
<v Speaker 1>have to listen to the rang well, well, whatever happens

0:02:52.367 --> 0:02:55.127
<v Speaker 1>to me, whether you say something is offensive or not,

0:02:55.167 --> 0:02:57.407
<v Speaker 1>you kind of And also they're not a monolith. There's

0:02:57.447 --> 0:02:59.447
<v Speaker 1>lots of people with red hair who have different views.

0:02:59.487 --> 0:03:03.487
<v Speaker 1>All the people that I've spoken to speaking to think

0:03:03.527 --> 0:03:05.567
<v Speaker 1>it's fine and take it as a compliment. But I

0:03:05.567 --> 0:03:07.607
<v Speaker 1>think it's also how it's intended.

0:03:07.807 --> 0:03:10.127
<v Speaker 4>Speaking of, we are asked a few people in our

0:03:10.167 --> 0:03:13.567
<v Speaker 4>office who do have red hair. Maybe that's even offensive

0:03:13.607 --> 0:03:14.967
<v Speaker 4>to spot them out and say, can you tell us

0:03:14.967 --> 0:03:16.447
<v Speaker 4>what you think about this term? But we asked them

0:03:16.527 --> 0:03:19.327
<v Speaker 4>if they thought little terms maybe yeah, if the term

0:03:19.367 --> 0:03:24.687
<v Speaker 4>ranger is offensive, And here's what they said.

0:03:23.287 --> 0:03:27.807
<v Speaker 5>Not remotely. I'm very comfortable with being a ranger. I'm

0:03:28.167 --> 0:03:31.407
<v Speaker 5>very comfortable in my own skin about being a ranger.

0:03:31.527 --> 0:03:35.567
<v Speaker 5>I refer to myself as a ranger. However, it depends

0:03:35.607 --> 0:03:38.647
<v Speaker 5>who's saying it and in what context. So it's like

0:03:38.687 --> 0:03:41.607
<v Speaker 5>I wouldn't go around the office and say hello baldy

0:03:42.247 --> 0:03:45.287
<v Speaker 5>or hello big nose or whatever. So if I know

0:03:45.487 --> 0:03:47.687
<v Speaker 5>someone and they refer to me as a ranger, that's

0:03:47.727 --> 0:03:48.767
<v Speaker 5>absolutely fine.

0:03:48.847 --> 0:03:50.647
<v Speaker 3>But it's just common sense.

0:03:51.047 --> 0:03:53.607
<v Speaker 6>Well, on the one hand, I can see why, you know,

0:03:53.727 --> 0:03:57.167
<v Speaker 6>these kind of negative stereotypes like gingers being quick to anger.

0:03:57.167 --> 0:04:00.127
<v Speaker 6>I don't really want these dorogedy phrases flying around. But

0:04:00.607 --> 0:04:02.727
<v Speaker 6>then on the other I'm not a big fan of

0:04:02.847 --> 0:04:05.687
<v Speaker 6>linguistic policing in general, so this news does, of course

0:04:05.767 --> 0:04:07.607
<v Speaker 6>instantly send me into a fiery rage.

0:04:07.847 --> 0:04:10.207
<v Speaker 7>I don't care. I could not care less if someone

0:04:10.367 --> 0:04:13.047
<v Speaker 7>called me a ranger. It depends, Like somebody could say

0:04:13.167 --> 0:04:15.087
<v Speaker 7>you're a ranger, or like, oh, my friend who's a

0:04:15.167 --> 0:04:18.007
<v Speaker 7>ranger with warmth, and I'd be like, that's nice. But

0:04:18.047 --> 0:04:20.847
<v Speaker 7>if someone used it as like your ranger as an insult,

0:04:20.887 --> 0:04:22.247
<v Speaker 7>I'd be like, get a better insult.

0:04:22.567 --> 0:04:24.767
<v Speaker 8>Honestly, I don't mind. If someone wants to call me

0:04:24.807 --> 0:04:26.887
<v Speaker 8>a ranger. You can call me a ranger, you know,

0:04:27.047 --> 0:04:29.367
<v Speaker 8>It kind of depends on who the person is. If

0:04:29.407 --> 0:04:31.567
<v Speaker 8>you're going to say it in a disrespectful way, like

0:04:31.767 --> 0:04:35.327
<v Speaker 8>you know, it might not be appreciated. But also, like

0:04:35.407 --> 0:04:37.967
<v Speaker 8>Tim Minchin says, like only a ginger gets to call

0:04:38.007 --> 0:04:41.007
<v Speaker 8>another ginger ginger. So there's that too, Holly.

0:04:40.727 --> 0:04:41.927
<v Speaker 4>Would you use the term ranger?

0:04:42.167 --> 0:04:45.967
<v Speaker 2>No, I wouldn't, but I grew up in a ranger house.

0:04:46.287 --> 0:04:48.167
<v Speaker 2>Ranger is an Australian thing, right, We don't use it

0:04:48.167 --> 0:04:51.007
<v Speaker 2>in England. What you call red hair from England? A

0:04:51.047 --> 0:04:52.967
<v Speaker 2>ginger in England? Who call him the ginger?

0:04:53.127 --> 0:04:54.767
<v Speaker 4>And is it a term of endearment.

0:04:54.807 --> 0:04:58.407
<v Speaker 2>So it's very similar to ranger in that it can

0:04:58.527 --> 0:05:00.927
<v Speaker 2>be fine, but it can also be a little bit

0:05:01.087 --> 0:05:03.847
<v Speaker 2>if people are calling you a ginger x you know.

0:05:03.767 --> 0:05:04.527
<v Speaker 1>What I mean? Ah?

0:05:04.767 --> 0:05:05.927
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, yeah, it can be Yes.

0:05:06.487 --> 0:05:10.407
<v Speaker 2>Yes, my dad had red hair, my brother had red hair.

0:05:10.447 --> 0:05:12.087
<v Speaker 2>My hair used to be quite red, and my kids

0:05:12.087 --> 0:05:14.887
<v Speaker 2>have red hair because there's also red hair on Brent's side.

0:05:15.687 --> 0:05:18.847
<v Speaker 2>And my daughter gets called ranger as her nickname at school.

0:05:19.007 --> 0:05:19.847
<v Speaker 1>Did she mind her?

0:05:20.567 --> 0:05:22.367
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that she loves it, but I think

0:05:22.407 --> 0:05:24.927
<v Speaker 2>she has decided to accept it as a term of endearment,

0:05:25.047 --> 0:05:26.967
<v Speaker 2>which I think is often what you do, don't you

0:05:27.047 --> 0:05:29.287
<v Speaker 2>when somebody starts calling you a name, and you decide

0:05:29.287 --> 0:05:31.567
<v Speaker 2>how you're going to handle it. But I think that's because,

0:05:31.607 --> 0:05:33.647
<v Speaker 2>as we discussed last week, she's called Matilda, and there

0:05:33.647 --> 0:05:36.207
<v Speaker 2>are about ten other Matilda's in her year, so they

0:05:36.287 --> 0:05:40.287
<v Speaker 2>all have a nickname, and so she is rang and Matilda.

0:05:40.367 --> 0:05:42.327
<v Speaker 4>I wouldn't use it. I don't think I've ever used

0:05:42.367 --> 0:05:44.447
<v Speaker 4>it to describe someone or at school. I think that

0:05:44.527 --> 0:05:47.607
<v Speaker 4>it could be seen as a bit of a derogatory

0:05:48.087 --> 0:05:51.127
<v Speaker 4>term to describe someone. I don't think it's on par

0:05:51.327 --> 0:05:54.767
<v Speaker 4>with sort of racist or homophobic language, like obviously that's

0:05:54.847 --> 0:05:57.207
<v Speaker 4>a different thing. I think it's funny that this has been.

0:05:58.287 --> 0:05:59.367
<v Speaker 1>A trigger warning.

0:06:00.967 --> 0:06:03.287
<v Speaker 2>In the workplace. She just can't comment on what people

0:06:03.327 --> 0:06:05.807
<v Speaker 2>look like. It's taken us a long time to get

0:06:05.847 --> 0:06:09.007
<v Speaker 2>me up to speed with that exactly.

0:06:08.847 --> 0:06:12.367
<v Speaker 1>Nice call you, blondie, until just reach because I couldn't

0:06:12.367 --> 0:06:13.047
<v Speaker 1>remember your name.

0:06:13.847 --> 0:06:16.127
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I want to talk about being dumped, and not

0:06:16.247 --> 0:06:18.447
<v Speaker 2>only because of Jlo, but also a little bit because

0:06:18.447 --> 0:06:21.247
<v Speaker 2>of Jaelo. As we talked about on Wednesday, this has

0:06:21.287 --> 0:06:23.487
<v Speaker 2>been the week that we were told officially what we

0:06:23.607 --> 0:06:26.607
<v Speaker 2>all have known for some time, which is the greatest

0:06:26.647 --> 0:06:28.927
<v Speaker 2>love story of our time, which was the rekindling, And

0:06:29.047 --> 0:06:31.567
<v Speaker 2>of course that's a whole movie called that. But the

0:06:31.607 --> 0:06:35.927
<v Speaker 2>rekindling of the love affair between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck,

0:06:36.127 --> 0:06:40.007
<v Speaker 2>which originally started twenty years ago, culminated in getting married

0:06:40.047 --> 0:06:42.447
<v Speaker 2>again two years ago, not once, but twice, once in

0:06:42.487 --> 0:06:46.767
<v Speaker 2>Las Vegas, once in Georgia. She loves love, well, so

0:06:46.847 --> 0:06:49.087
<v Speaker 2>does he. I think it's fair to say. I've seen

0:06:49.167 --> 0:06:51.647
<v Speaker 2>that video of him Monrea when he is courting for

0:06:51.767 --> 0:06:55.607
<v Speaker 2>love from he loved sex. Yes, and they got back together,

0:06:55.647 --> 0:06:59.727
<v Speaker 2>and everybody was like, this is amazing, this is brilliant,

0:06:59.967 --> 0:07:02.367
<v Speaker 2>truelove's triumph, all of those things.

0:07:02.447 --> 0:07:03.567
<v Speaker 1>Why did they break up whole?

0:07:03.767 --> 0:07:06.047
<v Speaker 2>Well, I know why you think they broke up.

0:07:06.327 --> 0:07:07.127
<v Speaker 3>I pull it.

0:07:07.087 --> 0:07:08.127
<v Speaker 2>All very squarely.

0:07:08.327 --> 0:07:08.967
<v Speaker 1>Changed my mind.

0:07:09.007 --> 0:07:11.887
<v Speaker 2>I know Ben so well. It's definitely his fault.

0:07:12.167 --> 0:07:14.767
<v Speaker 1>I actually think it is. The easy read is that

0:07:15.047 --> 0:07:19.407
<v Speaker 1>she wanted to be in the spotlight. She turned their

0:07:19.407 --> 0:07:23.247
<v Speaker 1>relationship into content. She loved a red carpet. But none

0:07:23.287 --> 0:07:27.247
<v Speaker 1>of that's new. I actually think that maybe it was him.

0:07:27.287 --> 0:07:29.647
<v Speaker 1>He's well known to have suffered from addiction issues.

0:07:30.167 --> 0:07:32.927
<v Speaker 4>What makes you think, Holly, that Jlo was dumped. Well,

0:07:33.847 --> 0:07:34.207
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:07:34.527 --> 0:07:34.927
<v Speaker 1>You're right.

0:07:35.007 --> 0:07:37.207
<v Speaker 2>I don't actually think that she was necessarily dumped. I

0:07:37.207 --> 0:07:39.407
<v Speaker 2>think she was probably like, we can't do this anymore.

0:07:39.767 --> 0:07:42.967
<v Speaker 2>But Ben affleck and again, this is such speculation, but

0:07:43.047 --> 0:07:45.807
<v Speaker 2>it probably pokes something in me and lots of women.

0:07:45.847 --> 0:07:48.447
<v Speaker 2>I know. He strikes me as the kind of guy

0:07:48.567 --> 0:07:50.047
<v Speaker 2>who he loves it and he hates it. He loves

0:07:50.047 --> 0:07:50.567
<v Speaker 2>it and he hates it.

0:07:50.607 --> 0:07:51.087
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what I mean?

0:07:51.967 --> 0:07:57.127
<v Speaker 2>He loves Jlo's jay lowness, but very often douchebag dudes.

0:07:57.127 --> 0:07:59.367
<v Speaker 2>I'm just going to say it. The thing that attracts

0:07:59.407 --> 0:08:01.487
<v Speaker 2>them to you is also the thing that repels them

0:08:01.487 --> 0:08:03.527
<v Speaker 2>from you. And I reckon that he thought he could

0:08:03.527 --> 0:08:05.647
<v Speaker 2>handle Jaelo, but he can't handle Jaylo.

0:08:06.207 --> 0:08:07.207
<v Speaker 3>He's just not up to it.

0:08:07.247 --> 0:08:08.647
<v Speaker 1>Her sun shines too brightly.

0:08:08.687 --> 0:08:09.127
<v Speaker 3>He's not mad.

0:08:10.047 --> 0:08:13.127
<v Speaker 4>I'm feeling very protective of my friend Jlo. I don't

0:08:13.127 --> 0:08:17.087
<v Speaker 4>know what happened, but emotionally, I feel like I'm gravitating

0:08:17.127 --> 0:08:20.287
<v Speaker 4>towards Jlo. I do, but I was apprehensive. I think

0:08:20.327 --> 0:08:23.647
<v Speaker 4>that when we tell our love story, the love story

0:08:23.687 --> 0:08:26.127
<v Speaker 4>of our life, to the world, the.

0:08:26.047 --> 0:08:28.367
<v Speaker 1>Greatest love story never told that we've told a lot.

0:08:28.487 --> 0:08:30.767
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So I think that when we make our documentary,

0:08:30.807 --> 0:08:33.007
<v Speaker 4>and when we also make our film and our album

0:08:33.047 --> 0:08:36.367
<v Speaker 4>all about the love story, that it's bad to tell.

0:08:36.447 --> 0:08:39.287
<v Speaker 4>I think it's bad juju. There seems to be We've

0:08:39.327 --> 0:08:42.927
<v Speaker 4>talked about this before, an inverse correlation between how much

0:08:43.687 --> 0:08:46.967
<v Speaker 4>we declare our love from the rooftops and maybe what's

0:08:47.007 --> 0:08:49.007
<v Speaker 4>going on behind the scenes. I see this all the time,

0:08:49.047 --> 0:08:53.127
<v Speaker 4>and I just think we gotta be careful because once

0:08:53.127 --> 0:08:56.407
<v Speaker 4>we say I've found the love of my life, look

0:08:56.447 --> 0:08:58.807
<v Speaker 4>at me. I'm finally happy. My whole life has led

0:08:58.847 --> 0:09:01.887
<v Speaker 4>me to this moment to ben So can you say

0:09:01.967 --> 0:09:04.087
<v Speaker 4>that out loud? I just think you're tempting fate.

0:09:04.607 --> 0:09:06.487
<v Speaker 2>A source told people, and we all know that the

0:09:06.527 --> 0:09:09.567
<v Speaker 2>sources who speak to people are really the celebrities. She

0:09:09.687 --> 0:09:12.567
<v Speaker 2>tried really hard to make things work and is heartbroken,

0:09:12.967 --> 0:09:15.727
<v Speaker 2>and I believe that. I think Jalo is heartbroken. I've

0:09:15.727 --> 0:09:17.807
<v Speaker 2>seen her on a yacht this summer quite a lot,

0:09:17.847 --> 0:09:19.887
<v Speaker 2>this northern summer, quite a lot. She was looking great

0:09:19.927 --> 0:09:22.287
<v Speaker 2>in the swimsuit, drinking champagne on a yacht, but you

0:09:22.327 --> 0:09:24.287
<v Speaker 2>could see any sadness in her eyes.

0:09:24.367 --> 0:09:27.007
<v Speaker 1>What's interesting about Jlo is that I mean. The divorce

0:09:27.047 --> 0:09:29.767
<v Speaker 1>papers show that the separation occurred on April twenty sixth,

0:09:29.767 --> 0:09:33.407
<v Speaker 1>which was four months ago. She relaunched before she filed

0:09:33.647 --> 0:09:36.807
<v Speaker 1>for divorce. Because it's been very interesting the way she's

0:09:36.807 --> 0:09:39.127
<v Speaker 1>handled these few months. It's been summer in America, she's

0:09:39.127 --> 0:09:41.447
<v Speaker 1>gone to the Hamptons, and she's done a lot of papwalks. Now,

0:09:41.807 --> 0:09:45.287
<v Speaker 1>Jlo loves a papwalk. Nothing wrong with a papwalk. Explain

0:09:45.327 --> 0:09:46.127
<v Speaker 1>what a papwork is.

0:09:46.207 --> 0:09:48.487
<v Speaker 2>I might take issue that she's done a lot of papworks,

0:09:48.487 --> 0:09:51.887
<v Speaker 2>but a papwalk is like a deliberate showing for the

0:09:51.887 --> 0:09:55.087
<v Speaker 2>paparazzi where you either pre arrange it or you go

0:09:55.207 --> 0:09:57.487
<v Speaker 2>somewhere that you know they're going to be. So, you know,

0:09:57.567 --> 0:09:59.487
<v Speaker 2>if you're a famous person and you choose to go

0:09:59.607 --> 0:10:03.127
<v Speaker 2>to the hot spot in the Hampton's for lunch where

0:10:03.127 --> 0:10:04.807
<v Speaker 2>you know the photographers are going to be, then it's

0:10:04.807 --> 0:10:08.967
<v Speaker 2>a very deliberate showing. But also cameras follow Jaylo around,

0:10:09.287 --> 0:10:11.807
<v Speaker 2>especially right now while everyone thinks they're breaking up, they're like,

0:10:11.807 --> 0:10:15.367
<v Speaker 2>where's she wears he? Any day you open a celebrity website,

0:10:15.407 --> 0:10:18.207
<v Speaker 2>it'll say she's in La He's in New York. She's

0:10:18.247 --> 0:10:20.327
<v Speaker 2>in Rome, he's in Blah Like there's been a j

0:10:20.447 --> 0:10:22.767
<v Speaker 2>Loo Ben watch going on now for months.

0:10:22.807 --> 0:10:25.887
<v Speaker 1>That's true, but celebrities of that level like Taylor Swift,

0:10:26.447 --> 0:10:32.887
<v Speaker 1>Beyonce j Loo that perhaps only photograph you when you

0:10:33.007 --> 0:10:35.207
<v Speaker 1>want them to kind of you cannot away them. And

0:10:35.287 --> 0:10:37.327
<v Speaker 1>I'm not again, this sounds like I'm saying it's her

0:10:37.367 --> 0:10:40.087
<v Speaker 1>fault or I just think it's a really interesting strategy

0:10:40.127 --> 0:10:43.527
<v Speaker 1>and a very Jalo strategy, which I'm here for. She's

0:10:43.567 --> 0:10:45.527
<v Speaker 1>trying to take control of the narrative. That's why I

0:10:45.567 --> 0:10:48.287
<v Speaker 1>don't think it was her choice to end. I think

0:10:48.327 --> 0:10:50.727
<v Speaker 1>it was his fault. As much as breakups can be

0:10:50.887 --> 0:10:53.967
<v Speaker 1>one person's fault, sometimes they are. I think he crossed

0:10:53.967 --> 0:10:56.487
<v Speaker 1>a line, whether it was cheating, whether it was addiction.

0:10:57.247 --> 0:10:59.487
<v Speaker 1>I feel like maybe it was actually cheating, because I

0:10:59.527 --> 0:11:02.647
<v Speaker 1>think with addiction, maybe she hung in already. I mean,

0:11:02.687 --> 0:11:05.247
<v Speaker 1>we're literally gossiping stuff up.

0:11:05.327 --> 0:11:06.767
<v Speaker 4>You don't think though, because this is going to be

0:11:06.767 --> 0:11:09.567
<v Speaker 4>the dominant narrative everyone pedals, and that we've heard from

0:11:09.567 --> 0:11:13.327
<v Speaker 4>the beginning is that poor Ben doesn't like the spotlight.

0:11:13.647 --> 0:11:16.647
<v Speaker 1>He is such a misogynistic narrative that I was part of,

0:11:16.847 --> 0:11:17.847
<v Speaker 1>and I have regrets.

0:11:18.327 --> 0:11:20.967
<v Speaker 2>I do exactly what he was getting. Yeah, he waited

0:11:21.047 --> 0:11:23.567
<v Speaker 2>us seventeen years ago, and that was the narrative that

0:11:23.647 --> 0:11:25.527
<v Speaker 2>he spun over why they broke.

0:11:25.447 --> 0:11:26.047
<v Speaker 3>Up that time.

0:11:26.207 --> 0:11:28.807
<v Speaker 4>But and this is what that narrative will say. Even

0:11:28.887 --> 0:11:31.087
<v Speaker 4>Jlo was like, we're going to do it differently this time.

0:11:31.247 --> 0:11:33.327
<v Speaker 4>We learned a lot of lessons. It was the media

0:11:33.367 --> 0:11:37.127
<v Speaker 4>that split us. That's what they both said about last time.

0:11:37.247 --> 0:11:40.327
<v Speaker 4>And then then was on a podcast recently, like in

0:11:40.327 --> 0:11:44.047
<v Speaker 4>the last month six weeks where he said, you can

0:11:44.207 --> 0:11:46.967
<v Speaker 4>photograph me, you can photograph j Loo, but when you

0:11:46.967 --> 0:11:49.607
<v Speaker 4>photograph my kids, you're crossing the line. He basically said

0:11:50.047 --> 0:11:53.527
<v Speaker 4>that that was really upsetting him at the moment. So

0:11:53.647 --> 0:11:58.007
<v Speaker 4>there will be a story and what we're essentially calling

0:11:58.207 --> 0:12:00.767
<v Speaker 4>Jalo in that narrative as an attention seeker except.

0:12:00.527 --> 0:12:02.727
<v Speaker 1>That his kids, and you're right, that was one of

0:12:02.727 --> 0:12:05.127
<v Speaker 1>the narratives, except that his kids, who were very publicly

0:12:05.127 --> 0:12:08.527
<v Speaker 1>with j Loo in the Hamptons since the breakup, and

0:12:08.687 --> 0:12:10.847
<v Speaker 1>they also don't need to be photographed if they don't

0:12:10.847 --> 0:12:14.727
<v Speaker 1>want to. So it's been really interesting watching everybody give

0:12:14.767 --> 0:12:18.807
<v Speaker 1>their message by what photos they're in, where they are,

0:12:19.167 --> 0:12:19.767
<v Speaker 1>who they're with.

0:12:20.167 --> 0:12:22.327
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a poor Ben guy. I think he's a

0:12:22.447 --> 0:12:26.927
<v Speaker 2>very talented, very tortured, probable pain in the ass to

0:12:26.967 --> 0:12:29.767
<v Speaker 2>live with, like Jennifer Garner, like there is no one

0:12:29.807 --> 0:12:31.247
<v Speaker 2>more delightful on the planet.

0:12:31.327 --> 0:12:33.927
<v Speaker 1>What about that quote that she gave about him? And

0:12:33.967 --> 0:12:36.207
<v Speaker 1>she's been very discreet since the divorce, but she said,

0:12:36.247 --> 0:12:40.287
<v Speaker 1>to paraphrase, when Ben shines his light on you, it's

0:12:40.367 --> 0:12:44.367
<v Speaker 1>warm and beautiful, but it's very cold in the shade. Yeah.

0:12:44.407 --> 0:12:46.487
<v Speaker 2>And also the other thing about the narrative about the

0:12:46.487 --> 0:12:49.487
<v Speaker 2>fame is it suggesse he has no agency, Like we

0:12:49.647 --> 0:12:52.207
<v Speaker 2>keep talking about that documentary. He was a co producer

0:12:52.247 --> 0:12:54.687
<v Speaker 2>on that documentary about their relationship. He chose to be

0:12:54.727 --> 0:12:56.327
<v Speaker 2>in it. He didn't have to do any of that.

0:12:56.567 --> 0:12:58.607
<v Speaker 2>As if we really think he was surprised to walk

0:12:58.607 --> 0:13:00.287
<v Speaker 2>into his house and see them going through his love

0:13:00.327 --> 0:13:02.327
<v Speaker 2>lit like, I don't buy it. Anyway, I have.

0:13:02.247 --> 0:13:04.647
<v Speaker 4>One more question to ask just on Jloh and Ben,

0:13:04.847 --> 0:13:07.727
<v Speaker 4>because everything we know about relationships is through the prism

0:13:07.767 --> 0:13:10.647
<v Speaker 4>of benefit. I think we can agree that's true. And

0:13:10.687 --> 0:13:13.847
<v Speaker 4>the age old question is does anyone ever really change?

0:13:14.367 --> 0:13:17.487
<v Speaker 4>Because that was what everyone thought, is that they were

0:13:17.567 --> 0:13:19.727
<v Speaker 4>each other's the love of their life. I heard that

0:13:19.767 --> 0:13:22.047
<v Speaker 4>from their own mouth. The media broke them up the

0:13:22.047 --> 0:13:24.167
<v Speaker 4>first time the second time, this was meant to mean.

0:13:24.407 --> 0:13:28.127
<v Speaker 4>What we all learned from that was people can change.

0:13:28.527 --> 0:13:30.167
<v Speaker 4>Maybe your ex is the love of your life.

0:13:30.207 --> 0:13:33.527
<v Speaker 1>I think they have amazing sex, and I think that

0:13:33.527 --> 0:13:36.407
<v Speaker 1>that can pluster over a lot, and it can also

0:13:36.567 --> 0:13:39.167
<v Speaker 1>make you think that you feel a way that you

0:13:39.207 --> 0:13:42.247
<v Speaker 1>don't or that you can overcome things that you perhaps

0:13:42.327 --> 0:13:45.847
<v Speaker 1>couldn't before. The sex can be confusing.

0:13:47.967 --> 0:13:49.887
<v Speaker 2>Georgia for the sex, like I don't buy.

0:13:49.847 --> 0:13:52.687
<v Speaker 1>No, but I think it makes them think and feel

0:13:52.727 --> 0:13:55.647
<v Speaker 1>a whole lot of things. But then eventually you're not

0:13:55.727 --> 0:13:58.167
<v Speaker 1>having sex three times a day, and you've probably had

0:13:58.207 --> 0:14:01.847
<v Speaker 1>some ut eyes, and you know, you can see things

0:14:01.847 --> 0:14:02.447
<v Speaker 1>more clearly.

0:14:02.647 --> 0:14:05.167
<v Speaker 2>Let's get away from the UTIs and back to celebrity

0:14:05.167 --> 0:14:08.567
<v Speaker 2>break up wisdom. So a little story for out louders.

0:14:08.767 --> 0:14:10.447
<v Speaker 3>One of the very.

0:14:10.327 --> 0:14:12.407
<v Speaker 2>Talented people who works here at Mama Mia. She's called

0:14:12.447 --> 0:14:15.367
<v Speaker 2>Live James. She was a social producer and she was

0:14:15.407 --> 0:14:16.967
<v Speaker 2>at the logis on Sunday night. As you may have

0:14:17.007 --> 0:14:19.207
<v Speaker 2>heard me or what she's barely talked about it. I

0:14:19.247 --> 0:14:23.047
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you would know, but Live James was

0:14:23.087 --> 0:14:26.927
<v Speaker 2>on the Red carpet, and unfortunately for Live, something had

0:14:26.967 --> 0:14:28.607
<v Speaker 2>happened to her that morning that was not what she

0:14:28.687 --> 0:14:31.327
<v Speaker 2>was expecting. Here's Live telling us what happened to her

0:14:31.407 --> 0:14:32.767
<v Speaker 2>the morning of the logies.

0:14:32.967 --> 0:14:35.487
<v Speaker 9>Okay, so basically, I was in this situationship with a

0:14:35.527 --> 0:14:37.567
<v Speaker 9>guy that I'd been seeing for a little while and

0:14:37.607 --> 0:14:40.247
<v Speaker 9>it was, you know, everything was going smoothly, but then

0:14:40.287 --> 0:14:43.247
<v Speaker 9>it came to this abrupt ending that was quite brutal

0:14:43.367 --> 0:14:46.487
<v Speaker 9>on the morning of the logis and I still had

0:14:46.487 --> 0:14:50.767
<v Speaker 9>to rock up to work, and I thought to myself,

0:14:51.247 --> 0:14:55.007
<v Speaker 9>what can I ask these celebrities that can help me

0:14:55.247 --> 0:14:57.167
<v Speaker 9>and other people? And I was like, I'm just gonna

0:14:57.207 --> 0:14:59.407
<v Speaker 9>ask them about my heartbreak, and then the head of

0:14:59.527 --> 0:15:01.727
<v Speaker 9>entertainment was like, you should just tell them the story.

0:15:01.847 --> 0:15:04.567
<v Speaker 9>So I was like, okay, and then all these celebrities

0:15:04.607 --> 0:15:07.127
<v Speaker 9>started looking at me really like with the saddest eyes

0:15:07.167 --> 0:15:10.327
<v Speaker 9>I've ever seen, honestly, but I got some good advice

0:15:10.887 --> 0:15:13.247
<v Speaker 9>and ten worth it.

0:15:13.527 --> 0:15:15.367
<v Speaker 3>So liv decided to ask.

0:15:15.487 --> 0:15:17.887
<v Speaker 2>Because she's a professional, I need to put on the

0:15:17.927 --> 0:15:22.527
<v Speaker 2>record speaking of Ben Affleck, douchebag move to dump your

0:15:22.567 --> 0:15:26.127
<v Speaker 2>girlfriend on the morning of a very big professional so true.

0:15:26.167 --> 0:15:28.007
<v Speaker 4>She had the logis that night could you not wait

0:15:28.087 --> 0:15:29.567
<v Speaker 4>until the next but you could have.

0:15:29.727 --> 0:15:33.287
<v Speaker 2>That's a bit of a narcissistic thing to do, anyway, live.

0:15:33.247 --> 0:15:38.047
<v Speaker 4>That person has been dragged by every possibly should.

0:15:40.687 --> 0:15:44.727
<v Speaker 2>This poor person anyway? So liv asked the famous people

0:15:44.927 --> 0:15:48.087
<v Speaker 2>their advice to get over heartbreak. I hope Jayla's listening

0:15:48.087 --> 0:15:50.567
<v Speaker 2>to this. Here's some of what the famous people said.

0:15:50.887 --> 0:15:52.647
<v Speaker 1>You're so much as my daughter.

0:15:55.487 --> 0:15:59.527
<v Speaker 4>Sious relationship at five. Do not look at another person

0:15:59.607 --> 0:16:02.007
<v Speaker 4>until you're thirty five minimum.

0:16:02.967 --> 0:16:04.727
<v Speaker 2>From what you learn from it, and if you grow

0:16:04.767 --> 0:16:05.767
<v Speaker 2>from it, that's awesome.

0:16:06.407 --> 0:16:07.687
<v Speaker 3>Don't take your baggage.

0:16:07.287 --> 0:16:08.247
<v Speaker 8>Into the next one.

0:16:08.687 --> 0:16:10.527
<v Speaker 10>Does run up this guy that's just letting me up

0:16:10.527 --> 0:16:13.407
<v Speaker 10>there tonight. Yeah, I'll be short term sad. And it's

0:16:13.487 --> 0:16:15.687
<v Speaker 10>nice to be short term sad if it meant something

0:16:15.687 --> 0:16:15.887
<v Speaker 10>to you.

0:16:16.287 --> 0:16:16.767
<v Speaker 3>If you're not.

0:16:16.847 --> 0:16:20.247
<v Speaker 10>Sad means the relationship meant nothing, which is actually a

0:16:20.327 --> 0:16:20.927
<v Speaker 10>terrible thing.

0:16:21.007 --> 0:16:24.367
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what. It always feels like shit now,

0:16:25.047 --> 0:16:27.487
<v Speaker 1>but it just gets better. I've got a quote from

0:16:27.527 --> 0:16:28.567
<v Speaker 1>Winston Churchill.

0:16:30.527 --> 0:16:35.207
<v Speaker 4>If you ever find yourself going through hell, just keep going.

0:16:35.367 --> 0:16:36.967
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, worthy of you.

0:16:36.967 --> 0:16:40.407
<v Speaker 8>You do your thing, You treat yourself fine, and you

0:16:40.447 --> 0:16:41.127
<v Speaker 8>get on the flow.

0:16:41.407 --> 0:16:44.367
<v Speaker 10>That's something you don't want to hear time see the

0:16:44.407 --> 0:16:47.767
<v Speaker 10>only thing in my experience.

0:16:47.247 --> 0:16:47.927
<v Speaker 1>They're really here.

0:16:48.407 --> 0:16:50.847
<v Speaker 2>So James Stewart is the last voice you heard there,

0:16:51.047 --> 0:16:53.887
<v Speaker 2>who was walking in a very benefit moment. He was

0:16:53.927 --> 0:16:56.247
<v Speaker 2>walking the red carpet for the first time with Aida

0:16:56.327 --> 0:16:59.047
<v Speaker 2>Nicodemi on his arm. Who's in that ladder? Hiada? She

0:16:59.127 --> 0:17:00.887
<v Speaker 2>was very excited to see live and they gave some

0:17:00.887 --> 0:17:02.927
<v Speaker 2>good advice. What he said after that, though, was something

0:17:02.927 --> 0:17:07.007
<v Speaker 2>about getting drunk, which I think is also fine. Do

0:17:07.087 --> 0:17:09.447
<v Speaker 2>celebrities know a lot about break up wisdom? Were the

0:17:09.527 --> 0:17:11.327
<v Speaker 2>best there? And what would yours be? Mare freedom?

0:17:11.967 --> 0:17:15.607
<v Speaker 1>The advice that I gave live at the Logis where

0:17:15.647 --> 0:17:20.167
<v Speaker 1>I was.

0:17:18.127 --> 0:17:21.287
<v Speaker 4>Was as a famous person, as a celebrity. Some might

0:17:21.367 --> 0:17:22.207
<v Speaker 4>say the.

0:17:22.167 --> 0:17:25.247
<v Speaker 1>Only interview I did no one else did, and it's

0:17:25.247 --> 0:17:28.567
<v Speaker 1>only because I'm live boss and ask me questions. But

0:17:28.647 --> 0:17:30.087
<v Speaker 1>the advice I gave was you get a fringe.

0:17:30.207 --> 0:17:31.247
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad you didn't say that.

0:17:31.407 --> 0:17:33.767
<v Speaker 2>You should have done locked at a Really seriously, did

0:17:33.767 --> 0:17:34.927
<v Speaker 2>you need to bring your personal life?

0:17:35.367 --> 0:17:39.327
<v Speaker 1>That's like true boundaries leave boundaries. I yes, said get

0:17:39.327 --> 0:17:42.527
<v Speaker 1>a fringe and get a haircut due and also buy

0:17:42.607 --> 0:17:45.567
<v Speaker 1>clothes for your feelings, because I think when you look

0:17:45.567 --> 0:17:48.567
<v Speaker 1>in the mirror. You want to see someone different to

0:17:48.687 --> 0:17:52.447
<v Speaker 1>the person who was in that relationship and who got dumped,

0:17:52.887 --> 0:17:54.887
<v Speaker 1>and I think that that is always a good thing.

0:17:55.047 --> 0:17:57.847
<v Speaker 4>I need to prosecute the hair comment because I reckon

0:17:57.847 --> 0:17:59.327
<v Speaker 4>if you go to the hairdresser, we don't get a

0:17:59.327 --> 0:18:02.007
<v Speaker 4>fringe and you say, give me a fringe and give

0:18:02.007 --> 0:18:06.167
<v Speaker 4>me a pixie cart, I think the hairdresser is legally

0:18:06.207 --> 0:18:10.047
<v Speaker 4>obliged to say, have you been doump in the last

0:18:10.047 --> 0:18:11.767
<v Speaker 4>twenty four to forty eight hours, and if you say yes,

0:18:11.767 --> 0:18:12.647
<v Speaker 4>and they have to say.

0:18:12.447 --> 0:18:14.607
<v Speaker 1>No, I think you just need to say, very good point, Jess.

0:18:14.807 --> 0:18:16.887
<v Speaker 1>You need to say I need a break up, haircut

0:18:16.927 --> 0:18:19.367
<v Speaker 1>and a hairdress A good hairdresser understands what that means.

0:18:19.567 --> 0:18:24.127
<v Speaker 1>It understands explicitly, not give me a pixie cut or

0:18:24.167 --> 0:18:26.527
<v Speaker 1>a fringe. I was joking about the fringe kind of

0:18:26.567 --> 0:18:28.807
<v Speaker 1>but it means that you need to glow up.

0:18:29.887 --> 0:18:32.247
<v Speaker 2>Buy some clothes for your feelings is the most mere

0:18:32.327 --> 0:18:34.847
<v Speaker 2>Friedman sentence I've ever heard, and I really like it.

0:18:35.527 --> 0:18:37.807
<v Speaker 1>I get that some people eat their feelings. I buy

0:18:37.807 --> 0:18:38.847
<v Speaker 1>clothes for my feelings.

0:18:38.967 --> 0:18:40.047
<v Speaker 3>My advice to.

0:18:40.047 --> 0:18:42.967
<v Speaker 2>Live, not that she asked. I'm not famous enough but

0:18:43.447 --> 0:18:46.327
<v Speaker 2>would be to wallow. My thing is like, you get

0:18:46.367 --> 0:18:49.967
<v Speaker 2>a wallowing window, and I think that how long that

0:18:50.167 --> 0:18:53.247
<v Speaker 2>is is dependent on how long the relationship was. So

0:18:53.287 --> 0:18:55.447
<v Speaker 2>if it's a four week situationship, you get like an

0:18:55.487 --> 0:18:58.567
<v Speaker 2>advent calendar sized window, like a teeny window.

0:18:58.327 --> 0:19:00.447
<v Speaker 1>Like four hours, Like what do you think like a week?

0:19:00.847 --> 0:19:01.287
<v Speaker 2>Maybe?

0:19:01.327 --> 0:19:04.047
<v Speaker 1>Because four weeks that's twenty five percent.

0:19:04.807 --> 0:19:06.967
<v Speaker 4>I disagree with you on this, continue and then I will.

0:19:06.927 --> 0:19:09.247
<v Speaker 1>Like you're married for five years.

0:19:09.287 --> 0:19:12.087
<v Speaker 2>When I say wallowing, I'm talking about you know, not

0:19:12.167 --> 0:19:15.727
<v Speaker 2>getting out of your pajamas, maybe drinking too much, maybe

0:19:15.927 --> 0:19:19.607
<v Speaker 2>ordering lots of food in eating chocolate, and crucially talking

0:19:19.887 --> 0:19:22.807
<v Speaker 2>your friend's ears off. They give you this window, I

0:19:22.847 --> 0:19:25.567
<v Speaker 2>think of a certain amount of time that they have

0:19:25.647 --> 0:19:28.847
<v Speaker 2>to tolerate, that it's part of the contract of your relationship,

0:19:29.327 --> 0:19:31.407
<v Speaker 2>and then at one point they have to cut it off.

0:19:31.447 --> 0:19:33.247
<v Speaker 2>And I reckon, if you've been married for ten years,

0:19:33.687 --> 0:19:37.127
<v Speaker 2>you get like a huge picture window sized space like months,

0:19:37.207 --> 0:19:39.447
<v Speaker 2>possibly years really of wallowing time.

0:19:39.847 --> 0:19:41.887
<v Speaker 1>It gets to a point where you're like, okay, it's

0:19:41.927 --> 0:19:42.527
<v Speaker 1>time to move on.

0:19:42.607 --> 0:19:45.367
<v Speaker 2>Now you have to just take that pain and shove

0:19:45.407 --> 0:19:50.367
<v Speaker 2>it really really far down, really suppress it, turn it

0:19:50.407 --> 0:19:53.287
<v Speaker 2>into a hard little pebble that you can say throw

0:19:53.527 --> 0:19:54.527
<v Speaker 2>like a kidney.

0:19:54.167 --> 0:19:56.767
<v Speaker 1>Stone that you have to we out of your WII home.

0:19:58.327 --> 0:19:58.767
<v Speaker 4>Manchester.

0:19:59.687 --> 0:20:02.527
<v Speaker 1>They really hurt a lot when you pass the kidneys

0:20:02.767 --> 0:20:04.407
<v Speaker 1>and they're gone and you feel sober and you can

0:20:04.487 --> 0:20:06.807
<v Speaker 1>keep them in a jar, maybe a roof with like

0:20:07.447 --> 0:20:09.047
<v Speaker 1>experiences I lived through on the jar.

0:20:09.287 --> 0:20:11.127
<v Speaker 4>Heartbreak is not like a kidney stone, not even a

0:20:11.167 --> 0:20:11.567
<v Speaker 4>little bit.

0:20:12.047 --> 0:20:12.927
<v Speaker 1>He wrote a whole book.

0:20:13.007 --> 0:20:14.287
<v Speaker 4>I wrote, I'm the expert.

0:20:15.007 --> 0:20:18.567
<v Speaker 2>You are the actually forgot that I am. But they

0:20:18.607 --> 0:20:20.127
<v Speaker 2>were quite serious breaker.

0:20:20.287 --> 0:20:25.727
<v Speaker 4>Well, Holly, if you'll recall, at the end of that book,

0:20:26.087 --> 0:20:28.207
<v Speaker 4>I wrote about a heartbreak that I experienced and guess

0:20:28.247 --> 0:20:31.167
<v Speaker 4>what it was a situation ship. It was one of

0:20:31.207 --> 0:20:33.647
<v Speaker 4>the worst heartbreaks I ever had, was with someone I

0:20:33.767 --> 0:20:34.727
<v Speaker 4>wasn't with for very long.

0:20:34.767 --> 0:20:35.847
<v Speaker 1>Why is that? Do you think?

0:20:36.367 --> 0:20:40.447
<v Speaker 4>My theory is that you only have hope, you only

0:20:40.567 --> 0:20:44.207
<v Speaker 4>have how you imagined it to be, and you're at

0:20:44.247 --> 0:20:47.287
<v Speaker 4>that early stage of infatuation where you've started playing out

0:20:47.447 --> 0:20:49.447
<v Speaker 4>all of the amazing things that are going to happen,

0:20:49.887 --> 0:20:51.727
<v Speaker 4>and then when you sit there to be like, oh,

0:20:51.967 --> 0:20:53.287
<v Speaker 4>I'm now going to write the list of all the

0:20:53.327 --> 0:20:55.367
<v Speaker 4>things I hate, You've got none because you never knew

0:20:55.367 --> 0:20:55.927
<v Speaker 4>them well enough.

0:20:56.007 --> 0:20:59.247
<v Speaker 2>You're letting go of a dream relationship rather than a

0:20:59.287 --> 0:21:01.847
<v Speaker 2>relationship itself, where it's like I love Luca.

0:21:01.927 --> 0:21:03.567
<v Speaker 4>If we broke up tomorrow, I could write a long

0:21:03.607 --> 0:21:08.887
<v Speaker 4>list of things. Yeah, So there's more like fodder for

0:21:08.967 --> 0:21:10.567
<v Speaker 4>my breakup to.

0:21:10.927 --> 0:21:13.567
<v Speaker 2>So, as the person who wrote the book on heartbreak,

0:21:13.647 --> 0:21:15.967
<v Speaker 2>Jesse Stevens, what's your advice for live?

0:21:16.527 --> 0:21:20.087
<v Speaker 4>My advice is that you need to have some sort

0:21:20.087 --> 0:21:22.927
<v Speaker 4>of ritual because my problem with heartbreak is that it

0:21:22.967 --> 0:21:24.447
<v Speaker 4>is a type of grief that we don't have any

0:21:24.527 --> 0:21:28.167
<v Speaker 4>ritual force. So yes, and when there's grief, in the

0:21:28.207 --> 0:21:32.447
<v Speaker 4>case of a funeral, that's a very specific experience that

0:21:32.487 --> 0:21:35.127
<v Speaker 4>people rally around you. You wear a specific outfit, yeah,

0:21:35.127 --> 0:21:37.087
<v Speaker 4>and you go to a thief for your feelings. And

0:21:37.567 --> 0:21:39.647
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't thinking of the outfit. I was more thinking

0:21:39.727 --> 0:21:42.967
<v Speaker 4>of the church or the ceremony. But yeah, you also

0:21:43.007 --> 0:21:47.967
<v Speaker 4>wear an outfit. But with the breakup, it's the grief

0:21:48.207 --> 0:21:51.847
<v Speaker 4>compounded with the rejection. It's that they don't want you

0:21:51.887 --> 0:21:53.607
<v Speaker 4>anymore and they're going to live their life over here.

0:21:53.647 --> 0:21:54.967
<v Speaker 4>They just don't want you to be a part of it,

0:21:55.007 --> 0:21:58.047
<v Speaker 4>which is a different type of pain. So I think

0:21:58.047 --> 0:21:59.727
<v Speaker 4>you need some sort of ritual. And that's where the

0:21:59.767 --> 0:22:02.647
<v Speaker 4>hair thing comes in. Right, Yes, go and get the haircut. Yes,

0:22:02.687 --> 0:22:04.847
<v Speaker 4>maybe go get your clothes, write your list of everything

0:22:04.887 --> 0:22:09.487
<v Speaker 4>you hate about them, right, journals, rite whatever, And so

0:22:10.527 --> 0:22:12.527
<v Speaker 4>I always think, and this is I'm back to j

0:22:12.647 --> 0:22:14.647
<v Speaker 4>Lo a little bit, right, because Jaylo is sitting there

0:22:14.727 --> 0:22:18.247
<v Speaker 4>right now weeping. Going. Ben and I had some really

0:22:18.247 --> 0:22:19.887
<v Speaker 4>good times, and.

0:22:20.127 --> 0:22:22.447
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think she's angry and defiant now. Yes,

0:22:22.527 --> 0:22:24.247
<v Speaker 1>I think she's past the weeping. True.

0:22:24.247 --> 0:22:27.087
<v Speaker 4>Okay, two months ago she was like not a lot

0:22:27.087 --> 0:22:29.927
<v Speaker 4>of weeping. Yes, Matt Garla Knight. She went home and

0:22:29.967 --> 0:22:33.807
<v Speaker 4>she just went Remember our wedding in Vegas. What a

0:22:33.807 --> 0:22:36.007
<v Speaker 4>lovely night. And it was because I was with Ben.

0:22:36.007 --> 0:22:37.767
<v Speaker 4>And I'm not going to have those fun times anymore.

0:22:37.807 --> 0:22:39.647
<v Speaker 4>Because Ben is no longer with me.

0:22:39.727 --> 0:22:41.407
<v Speaker 1>My heart's broken again again.

0:22:41.447 --> 0:22:44.247
<v Speaker 2>Ben actually posted social media that night he was getting

0:22:44.287 --> 0:22:46.287
<v Speaker 2>changed into his tux at a toilet. He doesn't normally

0:22:46.287 --> 0:22:48.727
<v Speaker 2>do that. She would have been like, he posted social

0:22:48.767 --> 0:22:50.887
<v Speaker 2>media for me exactly, and look what happened.

0:22:50.927 --> 0:22:54.367
<v Speaker 1>The humiliation though, there's humiliation in every breakup, really, or

0:22:54.407 --> 0:22:57.287
<v Speaker 1>a sense of failure or rejection if you're the one

0:22:57.527 --> 0:23:00.647
<v Speaker 1>who's been dumped Jesse, do you think that idea of

0:23:00.687 --> 0:23:02.647
<v Speaker 1>writing a list is actually a good thing of all

0:23:02.647 --> 0:23:06.247
<v Speaker 1>the reasons. You remember Dolly Algiston's good material about a breakup,

0:23:06.287 --> 0:23:08.727
<v Speaker 1>and the ongoing thing in that book is writing a

0:23:08.767 --> 0:23:10.727
<v Speaker 1>list of all all the reasons that it's good that

0:23:10.767 --> 0:23:11.927
<v Speaker 1>you've been broken up with.

0:23:12.127 --> 0:23:14.687
<v Speaker 4>Yes, well, and all the things that weren't right, because

0:23:15.127 --> 0:23:17.007
<v Speaker 4>it's breaking up. If you really think about it, there

0:23:17.007 --> 0:23:19.607
<v Speaker 4>are absolutely reasons it wasn't right. But when you look

0:23:19.607 --> 0:23:21.847
<v Speaker 4>back on those positive memories, you've got to remember that

0:23:21.887 --> 0:23:24.247
<v Speaker 4>you were there too, that you were part of those memories,

0:23:24.247 --> 0:23:26.287
<v Speaker 4>and you're still here so you can still have fun,

0:23:26.327 --> 0:23:29.247
<v Speaker 4>and whether it's with another person. Like last time Jaylo

0:23:29.407 --> 0:23:31.807
<v Speaker 4>was in Paris, she had dinner under the Eiffel Tower

0:23:31.807 --> 0:23:33.207
<v Speaker 4>with Ben. I don't want you to ask me how

0:23:33.247 --> 0:23:34.687
<v Speaker 4>I know about, but I do, and I know that

0:23:34.727 --> 0:23:37.127
<v Speaker 4>Ben cried and he was a bit he was a

0:23:37.167 --> 0:23:39.967
<v Speaker 4>bit of a wet blanket on that trip. Jaylo needs

0:23:40.167 --> 0:23:42.407
<v Speaker 4>to reclaim Paris. She needs to go back to Paris.

0:23:42.687 --> 0:23:44.847
<v Speaker 4>She needs to have a cocktail under the Eiffel Tower

0:23:45.327 --> 0:23:49.487
<v Speaker 4>with her girlfriends Jane Fonder, perhaps with Noah Trevor.

0:23:49.247 --> 0:23:52.327
<v Speaker 2>With her Clever Counsel with Trevor Noah Celestial Counsel.

0:23:52.447 --> 0:23:56.447
<v Speaker 4>Exactly, bring them with your friends, like Malone post Malone

0:23:56.487 --> 0:23:57.447
<v Speaker 4>can come true.

0:23:57.607 --> 0:23:59.967
<v Speaker 1>What do you think you two about the advice that

0:24:00.007 --> 0:24:01.927
<v Speaker 1>the best way to get over someone needs to get

0:24:02.007 --> 0:24:02.767
<v Speaker 1>under someone else.

0:24:02.807 --> 0:24:04.767
<v Speaker 4>I don't think it's the most terrible advice in the world.

0:24:04.847 --> 0:24:05.527
<v Speaker 3>Look, I mean.

0:24:06.927 --> 0:24:10.447
<v Speaker 2>It's an effective strategy, but it's a risky because sometimes

0:24:10.527 --> 0:24:13.647
<v Speaker 2>you just transfer to in print you in print or

0:24:13.967 --> 0:24:16.207
<v Speaker 2>the other thing that happens is that next day when

0:24:16.207 --> 0:24:18.607
<v Speaker 2>that person's left, you're like, oh, I'm still here in

0:24:18.647 --> 0:24:21.007
<v Speaker 2>this pain and that was fun for a minute, but

0:24:21.367 --> 0:24:22.367
<v Speaker 2>now yeah.

0:24:22.447 --> 0:24:25.607
<v Speaker 4>So two things I reckon. You've got to be careful.

0:24:25.607 --> 0:24:27.407
<v Speaker 1>It's so bad if you cry during the sex.

0:24:27.687 --> 0:24:30.327
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah. And sometimes it's really bad sex the first

0:24:30.327 --> 0:24:33.887
<v Speaker 4>time you've had the sex, So you probably don't have

0:24:34.007 --> 0:24:36.607
<v Speaker 4>the strength to be rejected again. That's what I found.

0:24:36.607 --> 0:24:38.567
<v Speaker 4>So I would be like, I'm going on the apps.

0:24:38.967 --> 0:24:41.727
<v Speaker 4>I need attention, and then the attention feels good, and

0:24:41.767 --> 0:24:43.927
<v Speaker 4>then if that attention goes, you're like, oh, no, I

0:24:43.967 --> 0:24:46.447
<v Speaker 4>did not sign up to be rejected again. I can't

0:24:46.447 --> 0:24:50.007
<v Speaker 4>handle that. And the other thing is don't then and

0:24:50.047 --> 0:24:52.727
<v Speaker 4>I've done this because I'm desperate for attention and validation

0:24:52.767 --> 0:24:55.687
<v Speaker 4>because I have no self esteem left. Is I strink

0:24:55.727 --> 0:24:58.647
<v Speaker 4>someone along and treat them like shit? Yeah, so, j Lo,

0:24:59.327 --> 0:25:02.767
<v Speaker 4>don't go find someone who you're going to kind of

0:25:02.807 --> 0:25:05.167
<v Speaker 4>project all your traumas onto. Does she need a Pete

0:25:05.247 --> 0:25:05.967
<v Speaker 4>Davidson moment?

0:25:06.287 --> 0:25:08.007
<v Speaker 2>I think it would be great if she had a

0:25:08.047 --> 0:25:10.327
<v Speaker 2>Pete Davidson moment, because she would get.

0:25:10.167 --> 0:25:14.087
<v Speaker 1>Engaged to Pete davidson'll probably marry him. She can't be stopped.

0:25:14.087 --> 0:25:16.727
<v Speaker 1>She gets engaged to everybody. Remember when she was engaged

0:25:16.767 --> 0:25:21.287
<v Speaker 1>to the backup dancer that was actually a backup dancer,

0:25:21.527 --> 0:25:23.487
<v Speaker 1>and then she got like engaged I think, to the

0:25:23.527 --> 0:25:26.447
<v Speaker 1>other backup dancer, and that was bad.

0:25:26.687 --> 0:25:28.367
<v Speaker 2>She likes jewelry, she.

0:25:28.327 --> 0:25:31.687
<v Speaker 4>Loves love, and there's no rule about how many times

0:25:31.687 --> 0:25:32.807
<v Speaker 4>you can I can't get engaged.

0:25:32.887 --> 0:25:35.287
<v Speaker 2>I Also, what I really like about Liv's story is

0:25:35.327 --> 0:25:38.047
<v Speaker 2>how seriously all those celebrities took it, like Andy Lee

0:25:38.087 --> 0:25:41.127
<v Speaker 2>with his thing and James Stewart about his thing about time,

0:25:41.327 --> 0:25:42.807
<v Speaker 2>like they really were there for live.

0:25:43.047 --> 0:25:44.887
<v Speaker 4>You know what also helps when you're in the depths

0:25:44.927 --> 0:25:48.287
<v Speaker 4>of heartbreak. He's remembering that even the celebrities the glitzy,

0:25:48.567 --> 0:25:52.607
<v Speaker 4>the glamorous, the rich among us get dumped, and sometimes

0:25:52.647 --> 0:25:54.567
<v Speaker 4>I like to think about I'm sure Miranda Kurr's been

0:25:54.607 --> 0:25:59.247
<v Speaker 4>dumped in which case happens to the most beautiful among us,

0:25:59.367 --> 0:26:01.807
<v Speaker 4>and therefore we can all get over it.

0:26:01.847 --> 0:26:05.047
<v Speaker 2>Out louders, have you got any excellent heartbreak advice? What

0:26:05.247 --> 0:26:08.967
<v Speaker 2>actually helps you get over getting dumped? We will send

0:26:09.007 --> 0:26:11.807
<v Speaker 2>all your advice to JLO, because I'm sure any minute

0:26:11.807 --> 0:26:13.807
<v Speaker 2>now we're going to get an on the JLO newsletter

0:26:13.847 --> 0:26:16.447
<v Speaker 2>from her and we can just send it in that reply.

0:26:21.367 --> 0:26:22.167
<v Speaker 6>The hell out.

0:26:26.447 --> 0:26:28.807
<v Speaker 4>It's Friday, so we want to help set up your

0:26:28.847 --> 0:26:33.007
<v Speaker 4>weekend with our very best recommendations. Maya, you have a book.

0:26:33.487 --> 0:26:36.087
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I started reading a book. So friend of the

0:26:36.087 --> 0:26:39.247
<v Speaker 1>pot Emelia Lester, texted me a picture of a book

0:26:39.247 --> 0:26:42.207
<v Speaker 1>cover and said best book cover at in ages and

0:26:42.727 --> 0:26:44.967
<v Speaker 1>I just need people to tell me what to read.

0:26:45.127 --> 0:26:48.407
<v Speaker 1>So I immediately downloaded it onto my Kindle and as soon

0:26:48.447 --> 0:26:50.647
<v Speaker 1>as I saw the cover, I thought, I'm gonna hate this.

0:26:50.727 --> 0:26:53.207
<v Speaker 1>It looks really cheesy, which is something that you two

0:26:53.207 --> 0:26:55.847
<v Speaker 1>would know about, because it had a particular type of

0:26:55.887 --> 0:26:59.247
<v Speaker 1>cover that felt very sort of two years ago. It

0:26:59.407 --> 0:27:02.407
<v Speaker 1>had like an illustration of a girl lying on a bed,

0:27:02.447 --> 0:27:04.887
<v Speaker 1>and the book was called Margo's Got Money Trouble, and

0:27:04.927 --> 0:27:09.727
<v Speaker 1>it just read like a sort of a daggy rom

0:27:09.887 --> 0:27:13.767
<v Speaker 1>cheesy thing that I wouldn't usually like because I'm so smart.

0:27:13.767 --> 0:27:15.287
<v Speaker 1>I'm not as smart as you. You I don't read

0:27:15.327 --> 0:27:21.367
<v Speaker 1>anything literally, but I also just needed something a little grittier. Anyway,

0:27:21.527 --> 0:27:25.367
<v Speaker 1>it turns out it is so good and so interesting.

0:27:26.007 --> 0:27:29.407
<v Speaker 1>It is about a young woman who gets pregnant unexpectedly.

0:27:30.047 --> 0:27:32.447
<v Speaker 1>I think she's like eighteen or nineteen, and it happens

0:27:32.487 --> 0:27:34.887
<v Speaker 1>right at the beginning, so that's not a spoiler. And

0:27:35.247 --> 0:27:38.487
<v Speaker 1>her dad is a retired wrestler and her mum is

0:27:38.527 --> 0:27:42.127
<v Speaker 1>a retired hoo does waitress. She's got no money, and

0:27:42.207 --> 0:27:44.047
<v Speaker 1>so what she has to do is start an only

0:27:44.087 --> 0:27:48.567
<v Speaker 1>fans to support herself and her baby. And it's interesting.

0:27:48.607 --> 0:27:51.687
<v Speaker 1>It plays with first person, second person, third person, so

0:27:51.727 --> 0:27:54.767
<v Speaker 1>it's just written in a really clever, interesting way, and

0:27:55.407 --> 0:27:58.087
<v Speaker 1>it's just a good easy page turn. I'm really liking it.

0:27:58.127 --> 0:28:00.127
<v Speaker 4>Sounds great, Holly, what's your recommendation?

0:28:00.367 --> 0:28:03.167
<v Speaker 2>So I'm going back to back on Lee's sales recommendations.

0:28:03.247 --> 0:28:05.767
<v Speaker 2>Last week I recommended her Australian story isn't it cave?

0:28:05.847 --> 0:28:08.647
<v Speaker 2>So Apologies, Lee Sales, I'm sure you're listening to the show.

0:28:09.247 --> 0:28:11.847
<v Speaker 2>Why am I so obsessed with you? Anyway? This show

0:28:12.047 --> 0:28:14.527
<v Speaker 2>is called The Assembly and it's on ABC and it

0:28:14.607 --> 0:28:17.327
<v Speaker 2>launched this week. It's on iView.

0:28:20.167 --> 0:28:21.247
<v Speaker 1>Testing one, two three.

0:28:21.367 --> 0:28:24.887
<v Speaker 6>For the first time in Australia, artistics students are undertaking

0:28:24.967 --> 0:28:28.047
<v Speaker 6>an artism and friendly in deduction to a journalism.

0:28:28.087 --> 0:28:31.007
<v Speaker 1>Of course, they will be mentored by one of Australia's

0:28:31.047 --> 0:28:34.247
<v Speaker 1>best journalists. This is a chance to work with people

0:28:34.287 --> 0:28:35.967
<v Speaker 1>who haven't really had a voice in media.

0:28:36.127 --> 0:28:40.487
<v Speaker 3>The students will interview some of Australia's most famous people. Hello.

0:28:41.207 --> 0:28:44.007
<v Speaker 1>Our rules are no subjects are out of bounds, no

0:28:44.127 --> 0:28:46.367
<v Speaker 1>questions are off the table, and anything can happen.

0:28:46.407 --> 0:28:50.767
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to the Assembly. It's really interesting. It's like a

0:28:50.807 --> 0:28:53.967
<v Speaker 2>documentary series. It's set at Macquarie UNI and it's a

0:28:53.967 --> 0:28:57.007
<v Speaker 2>group of students who have autism and they are getting

0:28:57.167 --> 0:29:01.447
<v Speaker 2>journalistic tutoring from the one the only Le Sales right,

0:29:01.727 --> 0:29:05.687
<v Speaker 2>And every episode they interview as famous person and Lee

0:29:05.847 --> 0:29:08.407
<v Speaker 2>helps them workshop their questions how they're going to ask them,

0:29:08.647 --> 0:29:10.447
<v Speaker 2>and then the fame this person comes into the ABC

0:29:11.007 --> 0:29:14.167
<v Speaker 2>and this group of want to be journalists interviews them, right.

0:29:14.847 --> 0:29:16.247
<v Speaker 4>That's such a good idea.

0:29:16.327 --> 0:29:19.607
<v Speaker 2>And the thing that's really interesting about it is is

0:29:19.647 --> 0:29:23.967
<v Speaker 2>the group of students with autism are very diverse, as

0:29:24.167 --> 0:29:27.647
<v Speaker 2>the spectrum would suggest, lots of different kinds of presentations,

0:29:27.687 --> 0:29:30.247
<v Speaker 2>dealing with things in different ways. But one of the

0:29:30.247 --> 0:29:32.487
<v Speaker 2>things that they all do have in common with these

0:29:32.567 --> 0:29:35.927
<v Speaker 2>questions is that they're just asking whatever they want. So

0:29:36.727 --> 0:29:40.607
<v Speaker 2>in this first one they interview Sam Neil, very famous actor.

0:29:41.047 --> 0:29:42.447
<v Speaker 2>Some of them don't know who he is and they're

0:29:42.447 --> 0:29:46.607
<v Speaker 2>happy to say so. But also there's a guy there

0:29:46.647 --> 0:29:48.767
<v Speaker 2>who really does know who he is because of Jurassic Park,

0:29:48.807 --> 0:29:51.367
<v Speaker 2>so who brings all his dinosaurs to show Sam Neil,

0:29:51.407 --> 0:29:53.727
<v Speaker 2>and Sam Neil has to be like oh, and then

0:29:53.767 --> 0:29:56.647
<v Speaker 2>they ask him questions. And it's just so interesting because

0:29:56.687 --> 0:29:59.607
<v Speaker 2>a bit like that you can't ask that. There are

0:29:59.607 --> 0:30:02.247
<v Speaker 2>some moments in it that make you really uncomfortable. And

0:30:02.287 --> 0:30:04.647
<v Speaker 2>then it follows some of the they're all young adults,

0:30:04.647 --> 0:30:07.167
<v Speaker 2>so they're all like sort of twenty ish. It follows

0:30:07.167 --> 0:30:08.847
<v Speaker 2>some of them home and you get some backstory and

0:30:08.887 --> 0:30:10.407
<v Speaker 2>all of the kind of thing. And I assume that

0:30:10.487 --> 0:30:12.167
<v Speaker 2>over the series you're going to get to know more

0:30:12.167 --> 0:30:15.207
<v Speaker 2>of them, and he's Lee Les in it all, and

0:30:15.247 --> 0:30:17.687
<v Speaker 2>she's in the room and she's so warm and funny

0:30:17.687 --> 0:30:20.847
<v Speaker 2>and smart. One of the students says to Sam Neil,

0:30:20.967 --> 0:30:24.847
<v Speaker 2>you're single and we know you like Australian journalists because

0:30:24.887 --> 0:30:28.927
<v Speaker 2>he'd recently dated Laura Tingle. Right, there's a single Australian

0:30:28.967 --> 0:30:32.007
<v Speaker 2>journalists here today. Why don't you at least sales come together?

0:30:32.567 --> 0:30:34.807
<v Speaker 3>Oh that is so good. That's so good.

0:30:34.847 --> 0:30:36.847
<v Speaker 2>And then there's another journalist who asked this question that

0:30:36.847 --> 0:30:39.847
<v Speaker 2>makes him cry about his parents, and he's very Sam

0:30:39.887 --> 0:30:42.887
<v Speaker 2>Neil is very He's been going through cancer treatment. He's

0:30:42.927 --> 0:30:45.607
<v Speaker 2>really living with quite serious cancer and he's very honest

0:30:45.607 --> 0:30:49.127
<v Speaker 2>about that. That's going chemotherapy. It's so interesting and you know,

0:30:49.487 --> 0:30:52.567
<v Speaker 2>just without it being like a worthy thing that you

0:30:52.767 --> 0:30:54.727
<v Speaker 2>kind of get beaten over the head with, it's just

0:30:54.847 --> 0:30:59.247
<v Speaker 2>so interesting and engaging to see these people who you

0:30:59.367 --> 0:31:03.167
<v Speaker 2>might have preconceived ideas about how these young people with

0:31:03.287 --> 0:31:05.487
<v Speaker 2>autism might act, and.

0:31:05.487 --> 0:31:06.407
<v Speaker 3>It's just not like that.

0:31:06.487 --> 0:31:08.487
<v Speaker 2>It's just really interesting anyway. I love it. It's called

0:31:08.487 --> 0:31:11.047
<v Speaker 2>the Assembly. The guest they've got coming up Alba, the

0:31:11.047 --> 0:31:14.247
<v Speaker 2>Prime Minister, it's going to do it. Adam Goodsamanda Kella

0:31:14.327 --> 0:31:18.487
<v Speaker 2>Hamish Blake is next Oh So really good Feel Good TV.

0:31:18.567 --> 0:31:20.887
<v Speaker 2>It's on the ABC and iView. It's called The Assembly.

0:31:21.327 --> 0:31:24.607
<v Speaker 4>My recommendation, there's not a lot of fashion sash style

0:31:24.767 --> 0:31:27.367
<v Speaker 4>things that I would have the guts to recommend. But

0:31:27.767 --> 0:31:29.607
<v Speaker 4>if you were going to ask my recommendation about one

0:31:29.607 --> 0:31:30.847
<v Speaker 4>item of clothing, what would it be?

0:31:32.367 --> 0:31:34.327
<v Speaker 1>Wing die lina, work out gear?

0:31:34.487 --> 0:31:35.527
<v Speaker 4>Work out gear leg.

0:31:35.647 --> 0:31:39.207
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, I've got panicked live in active wear.

0:31:39.367 --> 0:31:41.687
<v Speaker 4>That's my uniform, right, I have never asked you that

0:31:41.727 --> 0:31:45.727
<v Speaker 4>because you have camel tie, all right, that's a personal issue.

0:31:45.767 --> 0:31:46.887
<v Speaker 4>That isn't relevant.

0:31:46.927 --> 0:31:49.247
<v Speaker 2>Having a vagina, that's a personal.

0:31:51.487 --> 0:31:51.807
<v Speaker 10>Sorry.

0:31:53.327 --> 0:31:58.007
<v Speaker 4>Anyway. I have tried every pair of leggings, the expensive ones,

0:31:58.367 --> 0:32:03.367
<v Speaker 4>the cheap ones, that everything. And I recently went into Uniclo.

0:32:03.487 --> 0:32:06.727
<v Speaker 4>I had someone recommend me these specific leggings and they

0:32:06.847 --> 0:32:11.607
<v Speaker 4>are called Airism Ultra Stretch leggings. They're fifty bucks and

0:32:11.647 --> 0:32:16.047
<v Speaker 4>I got them in lilac. They are your first mistake. Yeah,

0:32:16.127 --> 0:32:17.567
<v Speaker 4>I don't know about my color.

0:32:17.607 --> 0:32:18.887
<v Speaker 1>Why did you get them in la?

0:32:21.847 --> 0:32:23.807
<v Speaker 4>I think they look I think they.

0:32:23.727 --> 0:32:25.207
<v Speaker 3>Look would lielac.

0:32:25.247 --> 0:32:28.167
<v Speaker 1>Why are you telling the first of all sweat, second

0:32:28.167 --> 0:32:32.607
<v Speaker 1>of all period, third of all pelvic floor leakage. And

0:32:32.727 --> 0:32:35.287
<v Speaker 1>fourth of all, can you can see more you Camelton?

0:32:35.447 --> 0:32:38.327
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't have any. Actually, I bought myself some

0:32:38.367 --> 0:32:42.047
<v Speaker 4>seamless underpants from Bonds, which were also good that I

0:32:42.047 --> 0:32:43.807
<v Speaker 4>think are quite good for the camel ca This.

0:32:43.887 --> 0:32:45.527
<v Speaker 3>Is a Camelt recommendation.

0:32:46.687 --> 0:32:48.647
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, let's move past that, Lilac, go on.

0:32:48.807 --> 0:32:51.087
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I was just thinking they should have like padding.

0:32:51.727 --> 0:32:53.607
<v Speaker 4>You know how there's like a when you do cricket,

0:32:53.887 --> 0:32:56.287
<v Speaker 4>there's like a cup box. Yeah, you should have a

0:32:56.327 --> 0:32:59.447
<v Speaker 4>cup for Camelton. Anyway, let me start the thing about

0:32:59.447 --> 0:33:02.607
<v Speaker 4>a good pair of tights. I want them high. I

0:33:02.607 --> 0:33:04.607
<v Speaker 4>can't have them around my Hip's my widest point. That's

0:33:04.687 --> 0:33:06.687
<v Speaker 4>just I'm just going to feel uncomfortable all day and

0:33:06.687 --> 0:33:08.967
<v Speaker 4>I have to be super stretchy and really really soft.

0:33:09.047 --> 0:33:11.287
<v Speaker 4>These You know how people say buttery soft? I never

0:33:11.367 --> 0:33:14.047
<v Speaker 4>knew what that meant. These are the most comfortable time

0:33:14.567 --> 0:33:18.007
<v Speaker 4>I've ever put on day out or do you ever

0:33:18.247 --> 0:33:20.487
<v Speaker 4>wear tights? Right and you're walking around on you're exercising

0:33:20.487 --> 0:33:22.327
<v Speaker 4>and then the bottom starts to sack. Do you know

0:33:22.367 --> 0:33:24.167
<v Speaker 4>what I mean by that? Like the thing they start

0:33:24.247 --> 0:33:25.767
<v Speaker 4>to make their way down, you got to pull them

0:33:25.807 --> 0:33:28.047
<v Speaker 4>up oh all day, I don't have time for that,

0:33:28.167 --> 0:33:32.087
<v Speaker 4>and also has two pockets. Great pocket has two pockets.

0:33:32.287 --> 0:33:35.527
<v Speaker 4>It's really really good anyway, best ones I've ever had,

0:33:35.687 --> 0:33:40.847
<v Speaker 4>super elastic key. They are from unicloat fifty bucks I have. Yeah,

0:33:40.887 --> 0:33:42.727
<v Speaker 4>I could wear them to better. I reckon they're that comfortable.

0:33:45.607 --> 0:33:48.407

<v Speaker 1>thank you to everyone who is already subscribed. It's time

0:34:09.247 --> 0:34:11.007
<v Speaker 1>I have the bestst of the week where we talk

0:34:11.047 --> 0:34:13.767
<v Speaker 1>about our high moments and low moments. Mine hasn't happened

0:34:13.847 --> 0:34:15.847
<v Speaker 1>yet because I haven't seen Jesse in her laggings with

0:34:15.927 --> 0:34:16.807
<v Speaker 1>her camel Toroe.

0:34:17.327 --> 0:34:17.927
<v Speaker 4>I'll take a phight.

0:34:18.167 --> 0:34:20.847
<v Speaker 1>But my other worst of the week that actually has

0:34:20.927 --> 0:34:25.407
<v Speaker 1>happened is that I have had the one hundred day cold.

0:34:26.047 --> 0:34:28.007
<v Speaker 1>You can hear it in my voice. I'm probably going

0:34:28.047 --> 0:34:30.447
<v Speaker 1>into I don't know, it feels like day a million.

0:34:30.647 --> 0:34:32.647
<v Speaker 1>The person who told me about this was Kate Langbrook,

0:34:32.767 --> 0:34:35.007
<v Speaker 1>who I saw at the Logis.

0:34:35.687 --> 0:34:37.647
<v Speaker 4>Where I was. Is this a real thing or is

0:34:37.687 --> 0:34:38.687
<v Speaker 4>this so Kate theory?

0:34:38.847 --> 0:34:40.727
<v Speaker 2>And also, you know, why have you been Is it

0:34:40.807 --> 0:34:42.407
<v Speaker 2>your fault that you've been sick for so long?

0:34:42.407 --> 0:34:45.007
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know why. My immune systems

0:34:45.167 --> 0:34:47.687
<v Speaker 1>just it's like I've just had one thing after another.

0:34:47.727 --> 0:34:50.847
<v Speaker 1>I had got influenza A, then I got a chest infection,

0:34:51.127 --> 0:34:54.087
<v Speaker 1>and then last week I had just an average sort

0:34:54.087 --> 0:34:56.847
<v Speaker 1>of a cold. Because I've got asthma, it often goes

0:34:56.887 --> 0:34:59.767
<v Speaker 1>to my chest. I just think I haven't had a

0:34:59.847 --> 0:35:02.967
<v Speaker 1>chance to properly recover probably, and I've just kept going

0:35:03.007 --> 0:35:06.047
<v Speaker 1>and kept going. And Kate said she's the same. I

0:35:06.087 --> 0:35:07.847
<v Speaker 1>spoke to someone else. He said, they've got one hundred

0:35:07.927 --> 0:35:10.247
<v Speaker 1>day cough. It's just I been a really rough winter

0:35:10.607 --> 0:35:14.127
<v Speaker 1>for people. Lots of people that momame are away. It's

0:35:14.167 --> 0:35:16.927
<v Speaker 1>not great. I mean, there's people going through much worse things,

0:35:16.927 --> 0:35:19.287
<v Speaker 1>but there's no judgment around best and worst. And I've

0:35:19.327 --> 0:35:22.567
<v Speaker 1>just felt like, oh, I've just felt so annoyed.

0:35:22.207 --> 0:35:23.727
<v Speaker 2>All so when it goes on for a really long

0:35:23.727 --> 0:35:25.847
<v Speaker 2>time something like that, like at the beginning, you're like, Okay,

0:35:25.847 --> 0:35:27.127
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go to bed and have some soup and

0:35:27.127 --> 0:35:27.727
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to take it.

0:35:27.767 --> 0:35:28.207
<v Speaker 3>Out of work.

0:35:29.007 --> 0:35:31.727
<v Speaker 2>But then you just have to, like you just have to,

0:35:31.847 --> 0:35:34.567
<v Speaker 2>don't You're just walking around with it and it sucks.

0:35:35.287 --> 0:35:38.967
<v Speaker 1>My best was I went to the set of Strife

0:35:39.047 --> 0:35:41.647
<v Speaker 1>the second season started shooting a couple of weeks ago.

0:35:41.687 --> 0:35:44.407
<v Speaker 1>I haven't been to set yet because of aforementioned one

0:35:44.447 --> 0:35:47.207
<v Speaker 1>hundred day cold. And one thing that you know is

0:35:47.247 --> 0:35:49.047
<v Speaker 1>that you really don't want to spread Jones on set.

0:35:49.327 --> 0:35:51.807
<v Speaker 1>So last year, when we had the first time all

0:35:51.847 --> 0:35:54.527
<v Speaker 1>the cast got together and did their read through, I

0:35:54.647 --> 0:35:56.687
<v Speaker 1>wasn't feeling very well that day, and it was the

0:35:56.687 --> 0:35:58.367
<v Speaker 1>first time I met a lot of cast. I was

0:35:58.447 --> 0:36:02.207
<v Speaker 1>like lots of hugs and everything. I felt increasingly bad

0:36:02.247 --> 0:36:04.447
<v Speaker 1>as the read through happened and I got home, and

0:36:04.447 --> 0:36:06.167
<v Speaker 1>that night I tested positive for COVID.

0:36:06.247 --> 0:36:07.367
<v Speaker 4>But you were wearing a mask.

0:36:07.607 --> 0:36:10.567
<v Speaker 1>I was all right wearing a mask. Yes, So I

0:36:10.567 --> 0:36:12.727
<v Speaker 1>didn't give it to anyone that I know of. But

0:36:12.767 --> 0:36:14.727
<v Speaker 1>back when we were shooting season one, it was still

0:36:14.727 --> 0:36:17.287
<v Speaker 1>COVID protocols, so you had to test every day before

0:36:17.287 --> 0:36:19.487
<v Speaker 1>you came to set. You had to wear masks unless

0:36:19.527 --> 0:36:21.607
<v Speaker 1>you were a performer or unless you were eating lunch.

0:36:22.127 --> 0:36:24.407
<v Speaker 1>It reminded me what a different vibe it is to

0:36:24.487 --> 0:36:27.407
<v Speaker 1>not have to, and it just felt so joyous being

0:36:27.447 --> 0:36:29.527
<v Speaker 1>on set. I saw all of the a lot of

0:36:29.567 --> 0:36:33.247
<v Speaker 1>the cast at the logis, but it was just lovely

0:36:33.287 --> 0:36:35.087
<v Speaker 1>like being on set. And again, I've got nothing to

0:36:35.087 --> 0:36:37.967
<v Speaker 1>do on set as an executive producer, but we're filming

0:36:37.967 --> 0:36:39.847
<v Speaker 1>the office scenes this week and there's a few new

0:36:39.887 --> 0:36:41.487
<v Speaker 1>cast members. It's glorious as.

0:36:41.487 --> 0:36:43.367
<v Speaker 2>Loud as I want to know if all their favorites

0:36:43.367 --> 0:36:43.767
<v Speaker 2>are back.

0:36:44.127 --> 0:36:47.167
<v Speaker 1>Yes, all their favorites are back, plus some extras. I

0:36:47.287 --> 0:36:49.327
<v Speaker 1>met an actress who I've been a fan of for

0:36:49.367 --> 0:36:52.527
<v Speaker 1>a really long time yesterday on set who I can't mention,

0:36:53.007 --> 0:36:57.167
<v Speaker 1>and she was wearing this outfit in character, and I

0:36:57.287 --> 0:37:00.727
<v Speaker 1>was wearing an almost identical outfit just in my regular

0:37:00.807 --> 0:37:02.247
<v Speaker 1>life without realizing it.

0:37:02.287 --> 0:37:03.567
<v Speaker 3>That's very me or I love it.

0:37:04.047 --> 0:37:08.127
<v Speaker 4>My worst is that Lucra is away for the week.

0:37:08.407 --> 0:37:11.887
<v Speaker 4>He's overseas and I am doing the solo momth thing

0:37:12.047 --> 0:37:15.367
<v Speaker 4>and oh my god, she still wakes up overnight, which

0:37:15.487 --> 0:37:19.407
<v Speaker 4>is fine if you're kind of handing over to each

0:37:19.447 --> 0:37:19.767
<v Speaker 4>other and.

0:37:19.887 --> 0:37:21.487
<v Speaker 1>You two have always tag teamed really well.

0:37:21.567 --> 0:37:23.927
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so normally we tag team, but now when you've

0:37:23.927 --> 0:37:26.327
<v Speaker 4>got a baby waking up overnight, and then sometimes she's

0:37:26.407 --> 0:37:29.767
<v Speaker 4>up really early. You just have a bunch of I

0:37:29.767 --> 0:37:31.807
<v Speaker 4>can always find that, like I can do a night

0:37:31.887 --> 0:37:33.767
<v Speaker 4>or two of bad sleep. But you know when you

0:37:33.847 --> 0:37:36.327
<v Speaker 4>have had a lot of nights and you can't catch up,

0:37:36.327 --> 0:37:38.287
<v Speaker 4>that's when you start to feel very run down.

0:37:38.887 --> 0:37:41.247
<v Speaker 1>But I've had almost eighteen months worth of nights.

0:37:41.767 --> 0:37:44.127
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, look, and normally I can just I can catch

0:37:44.207 --> 0:37:46.727
<v Speaker 4>up because Luca's around. But on the first night, Luca

0:37:46.807 --> 0:37:48.207
<v Speaker 4>left and I just went, we're can I go to

0:37:48.247 --> 0:37:50.567
<v Speaker 4>Clare's And we went to my sister's place and we

0:37:50.647 --> 0:37:53.007
<v Speaker 4>had dinner and the girls had baths together and it

0:37:53.047 --> 0:37:54.927
<v Speaker 4>was great. And I came home and went, Honestly, I

0:37:54.967 --> 0:37:58.327
<v Speaker 4>am nailing me. I don't even need Luca, You're not.

0:37:58.407 --> 0:38:02.087
<v Speaker 4>This is easy without him, Like it's just really applauding myself.

0:38:02.527 --> 0:38:05.127
<v Speaker 4>And then I put her to bed and I was like, boom, bom, boom,

0:38:05.167 --> 0:38:07.847
<v Speaker 4>just nailing it. And then after about an hour she

0:38:07.927 --> 0:38:10.247
<v Speaker 4>started crying, which was weird, and I went upstairs and

0:38:10.287 --> 0:38:12.767
<v Speaker 4>whatever I had fed her at Claire's had to all

0:38:12.767 --> 0:38:15.127
<v Speaker 4>come out, and she had done the world's biggest vomit

0:38:15.167 --> 0:38:18.247
<v Speaker 4>in a cot on the floor everywhere, And so then

0:38:18.287 --> 0:38:19.687
<v Speaker 4>we're in the shower and then we're in the bath,

0:38:19.847 --> 0:38:22.567
<v Speaker 4>washed your hair three times, still smell it, vomit, take

0:38:22.607 --> 0:38:24.767
<v Speaker 4>the sheet off, the cot, throat in the hallway, all

0:38:24.767 --> 0:38:26.687
<v Speaker 4>the things, and you've only got two hands. And then

0:38:26.687 --> 0:38:28.767
<v Speaker 4>she's like, Mum, I'm hungry. I just vomited everything. I'm like,

0:38:28.767 --> 0:38:30.287
<v Speaker 4>when am I going to get your botle anyway?

0:38:30.807 --> 0:38:31.927
<v Speaker 1>And you're going to remake the bed.

0:38:32.047 --> 0:38:33.887
<v Speaker 4>You got to remake the bed, put the cot down,

0:38:34.047 --> 0:38:37.327
<v Speaker 4>and I'm like, mate, I'm tired. Actually anyway, I put

0:38:37.327 --> 0:38:39.727
<v Speaker 4>her back down and then I go, hang on, where

0:38:39.727 --> 0:38:41.927
<v Speaker 4>did the cot sheet go? Because I put it in

0:38:41.967 --> 0:38:44.327
<v Speaker 4>the hallway and now it's not there. And I hear

0:38:44.527 --> 0:38:47.767
<v Speaker 4>from my bedroom the dog who had stolen the cot

0:38:47.807 --> 0:38:51.807
<v Speaker 4>sheet in the vomit, and I was just so disgusting,

0:38:52.207 --> 0:38:53.767
<v Speaker 4>and I was like, you had to clean it up

0:38:53.807 --> 0:38:56.927
<v Speaker 4>because and it was horrible.

0:38:56.967 --> 0:38:58.487
<v Speaker 1>My dog's eaten worse. Yeah.

0:39:02.367 --> 0:39:05.847
<v Speaker 4>My best though is that over the weekend MI children

0:39:05.887 --> 0:39:08.367
<v Speaker 4>Luna did have their first sleepover, so slumber party. Claire

0:39:08.407 --> 0:39:10.647
<v Speaker 4>came over. I had a few friends over that night

0:39:10.727 --> 0:39:13.527
<v Speaker 4>and then Matilda was having a rough time and I went,

0:39:13.567 --> 0:39:15.327
<v Speaker 4>why don't you just stay? And so we had to

0:39:15.327 --> 0:39:20.247
<v Speaker 4>sleep over. The girls were in their pajamas. They stayed,

0:39:20.327 --> 0:39:23.767
<v Speaker 4>which was lovely, and then we all had breakfast, so

0:39:23.807 --> 0:39:25.927
<v Speaker 4>Claire slept with me, and then we've got travel coot,

0:39:26.047 --> 0:39:29.367
<v Speaker 4>so Matilda was just in that and then Luna was

0:39:29.407 --> 0:39:31.207
<v Speaker 4>in her bed. She didn't know Matilda was staying, so

0:39:31.727 --> 0:39:33.127
<v Speaker 4>when she woke up in the morning though, I saw

0:39:33.127 --> 0:39:35.367
<v Speaker 4>Claire was there, she was like, oh my god, this

0:39:35.527 --> 0:39:37.727
<v Speaker 4>is great. And then the girls had breakfast together.

0:39:37.807 --> 0:39:39.767
<v Speaker 1>It was just does she like Matilda anymore?

0:39:39.887 --> 0:39:40.247
<v Speaker 3>She is?

0:39:40.287 --> 0:39:41.007
<v Speaker 1>She growing on.

0:39:40.927 --> 0:39:44.927
<v Speaker 4>Her getting there. She doesn't like actively cry now when

0:39:44.927 --> 0:39:47.367
<v Speaker 4>she sees Matilda, which is good. It's like exposure therapy.

0:39:47.687 --> 0:39:51.687
<v Speaker 4>But Matilda loves Luna, and Luna's just feeling like matilda

0:39:51.687 --> 0:39:53.607
<v Speaker 4>steels are attention a bit. It's always fun when there's

0:39:53.647 --> 0:39:55.527
<v Speaker 4>other people around, So yeah.

0:39:55.527 --> 0:39:58.527
<v Speaker 1>Parenting when there's other people around the village, etc.

0:39:59.327 --> 0:40:00.207
<v Speaker 4>Holly, what's your worst.

0:40:00.207 --> 0:40:01.407
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to get in a lot of trouble for

0:40:01.447 --> 0:40:03.807
<v Speaker 2>my worst because I'm just going to be honest about

0:40:03.807 --> 0:40:07.367
<v Speaker 2>a conversation I had with some friends this week when

0:40:07.407 --> 0:40:09.607
<v Speaker 2>I found out that everybody I knows on diet drugs

0:40:09.607 --> 0:40:10.127
<v Speaker 2>except for me.

0:40:10.647 --> 0:40:12.167
<v Speaker 1>It's like injectibles.

0:40:12.407 --> 0:40:15.247
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I thought the only famous people were doing that shit,

0:40:15.967 --> 0:40:18.887
<v Speaker 2>and there's me being an ordinary person thinking, oh, I know,

0:40:19.047 --> 0:40:21.847
<v Speaker 2>talking about weight and bodies is very fraught. We generally

0:40:21.927 --> 0:40:24.047
<v Speaker 2>don't talk about it much. But I've also said a

0:40:24.087 --> 0:40:25.607
<v Speaker 2>couple of times I had a fight with Jesse about

0:40:25.647 --> 0:40:27.807
<v Speaker 2>this on the show. There are a lot of women

0:40:27.847 --> 0:40:31.007
<v Speaker 2>out there, particularly midlife women, who are not feeling great

0:40:31.007 --> 0:40:35.287
<v Speaker 2>about their bodies, who are trying to eat right, exercise hard,

0:40:35.287 --> 0:40:37.687
<v Speaker 2>blah blah blah. And I'm in that phase at the

0:40:37.687 --> 0:40:40.407
<v Speaker 2>moment of just being like, I'm an ordinary person who

0:40:40.487 --> 0:40:41.807
<v Speaker 2>my weight goes up and down and all that, and

0:40:41.847 --> 0:40:44.487
<v Speaker 2>at the moment I'm being really trying to pull back

0:40:44.527 --> 0:40:47.807
<v Speaker 2>to some kind of like very healthy whatever fucking eating

0:40:47.807 --> 0:40:49.127
<v Speaker 2>cottage cheese all the time?

0:40:49.767 --> 0:40:51.887
<v Speaker 4>Cottage? Can I just ask about cottage cheese because you

0:40:51.967 --> 0:40:53.727
<v Speaker 4>meant to feed toddlers that is that like the best

0:40:53.847 --> 0:40:54.767
<v Speaker 4>version of cheese or something.

0:40:54.847 --> 0:40:57.967
<v Speaker 2>It's very protein rich and low fat, right, so if

0:40:58.007 --> 0:40:59.687
<v Speaker 2>you eat and again, I don't want to sound like

0:40:59.767 --> 0:41:01.727
<v Speaker 2>I don't know one of those magazines from the eighth.

0:41:01.647 --> 0:41:03.007
<v Speaker 4>Now I have questions about cottage.

0:41:03.007 --> 0:41:05.807
<v Speaker 2>Shy protein breakfast Sarah are a good thing to so

0:41:05.807 --> 0:41:07.967
<v Speaker 2>cottag cheese anyway, I'm not criticisz anywhere, I don't want

0:41:08.007 --> 0:41:10.447
<v Speaker 2>to sound like one of those people, but any here,

0:41:10.527 --> 0:41:13.647
<v Speaker 2>I am being one of those people. And then I

0:41:13.767 --> 0:41:15.727
<v Speaker 2>talk to some of my friends and they're like, Oh,

0:41:15.807 --> 0:41:20.327
<v Speaker 2>everybody's taking them. Everybody's doing that now, And it made

0:41:20.407 --> 0:41:20.807
<v Speaker 2>me sad.

0:41:20.927 --> 0:41:22.367
<v Speaker 1>I told you a bunch of people that we know

0:41:22.647 --> 0:41:25.647
<v Speaker 1>are And the thing about menopause, though, is that your

0:41:25.647 --> 0:41:28.167
<v Speaker 1>body just wants to turn into a circle. Like it's

0:41:28.207 --> 0:41:30.847
<v Speaker 1>just desperate to turn into a circle. It doesn't matter

0:41:30.927 --> 0:41:34.367
<v Speaker 1>what you do or what you don't do. Your body's like, nah,

0:41:34.367 --> 0:41:35.567
<v Speaker 1>we're going to be a circle.

0:41:35.927 --> 0:41:38.247
<v Speaker 2>And I know it doesn't matter, right, I know it doesn't,

0:41:38.967 --> 0:41:41.927
<v Speaker 2>But also you're kind of when you don't feel like yourself,

0:41:41.967 --> 0:41:44.127
<v Speaker 2>when you feel all those like you know, you're just

0:41:44.207 --> 0:41:45.807
<v Speaker 2>trying to feel better. And then I'm like, oh, I

0:41:45.847 --> 0:41:47.967
<v Speaker 2>see what everybody else is doing. Food is a big

0:41:48.007 --> 0:41:49.927
<v Speaker 2>I like food a lot, right, I like healthy food.

0:41:49.927 --> 0:41:53.287
<v Speaker 2>I like but rituals around food, thinking about it, cooking

0:41:53.327 --> 0:41:55.527
<v Speaker 2>and eating with my family, going out for dinner, all

0:41:55.567 --> 0:41:57.807
<v Speaker 2>those things are things that bring me a lot of joy.

0:41:58.927 --> 0:42:02.407
<v Speaker 2>And as I understand it, a lot of those medications,

0:42:02.407 --> 0:42:04.607
<v Speaker 2>like they just remove food from your world. I remember

0:42:04.607 --> 0:42:07.727
<v Speaker 2>when you when you InterVideo Han Hari about it, and

0:42:07.807 --> 0:42:09.087
<v Speaker 2>one of the things that really sticks in my mind,

0:42:09.127 --> 0:42:10.767
<v Speaker 2>and he was talking about how he had very unhealthy

0:42:10.807 --> 0:42:13.807
<v Speaker 2>relationship with food and he would, you know, eat buckets

0:42:13.807 --> 0:42:16.167
<v Speaker 2>and buckets of fried chicken and things to make him

0:42:16.167 --> 0:42:18.847
<v Speaker 2>feel better. And so for him it was this amazing freedom,

0:42:19.207 --> 0:42:21.687
<v Speaker 2>but then it also left this gap and I think

0:42:21.727 --> 0:42:24.087
<v Speaker 2>about a lot, but do I actually want to remove

0:42:24.327 --> 0:42:26.807
<v Speaker 2>the joy that comes with that from my life? Like

0:42:26.847 --> 0:42:29.447
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I do anyway, Sorry, everybody, how I

0:42:29.447 --> 0:42:30.047
<v Speaker 2>offended with that?

0:42:30.127 --> 0:42:30.407
<v Speaker 3>Worst?

0:42:30.687 --> 0:42:32.087
<v Speaker 1>How'd you have offended? Anyway?

0:42:32.167 --> 0:42:35.767
<v Speaker 2>Because it's very sensitive talking about bodies and diets and things.

0:42:35.767 --> 0:42:37.247
<v Speaker 4>But I think it's also a thing that a lot

0:42:37.247 --> 0:42:39.367
<v Speaker 4>of people are grappling with and that choice and going

0:42:39.407 --> 0:42:40.927
<v Speaker 4>on it, and I know people who have gone on

0:42:40.927 --> 0:42:42.927
<v Speaker 4>it and it's made them feel really sick. And yeah,

0:42:42.927 --> 0:42:44.607
<v Speaker 4>I think it's something a lot of people are talking about.

0:42:44.767 --> 0:42:48.607
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, anyway, my best is related to jess is worst,

0:42:48.767 --> 0:42:50.607
<v Speaker 2>and it's that Brent's been away and.

0:42:52.207 --> 0:42:53.327
<v Speaker 4>Have many children run away?

0:42:53.367 --> 0:42:57.167
<v Speaker 2>Would be really upset to hear this, but hopefully no

0:42:57.247 --> 0:42:59.847
<v Speaker 2>children are vomited, and my children obviously are bigger they

0:42:59.847 --> 0:43:01.287
<v Speaker 2>can take care of themselves a lot more. It is

0:43:01.367 --> 0:43:03.767
<v Speaker 2>still a lot more work for me when he's not around.

0:43:03.807 --> 0:43:05.607
<v Speaker 2>Like there's a lot of driving people around, there's a

0:43:05.607 --> 0:43:07.047
<v Speaker 2>lot of cooking, there's a lot of all that stuff.

0:43:07.847 --> 0:43:11.287
<v Speaker 2>But sometimes on the weekend, I really like to just

0:43:11.327 --> 0:43:13.807
<v Speaker 2>be quiet and be at home and just be pottering

0:43:13.847 --> 0:43:15.447
<v Speaker 2>about and just do the things I want to do.

0:43:15.487 --> 0:43:17.167
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I did this weekend. Me and Billy

0:43:17.207 --> 0:43:19.527
<v Speaker 2>had a really good Mum and Billy day on Saturday

0:43:19.567 --> 0:43:21.007
<v Speaker 2>where we went to eat dumplings.

0:43:20.607 --> 0:43:21.727
<v Speaker 3>Which is our favorite thing.

0:43:22.407 --> 0:43:24.327
<v Speaker 2>And it made him build some veggie beds with me,

0:43:24.447 --> 0:43:27.207
<v Speaker 2>which he hated, but I bribed him with things for it,

0:43:27.287 --> 0:43:29.367
<v Speaker 2>and I called back together time even though.

0:43:29.207 --> 0:43:30.967
<v Speaker 3>He was winting all the way through it.

0:43:31.647 --> 0:43:33.927
<v Speaker 2>And I built a new cage for my veggie bed

0:43:33.967 --> 0:43:36.007
<v Speaker 2>that the rats keeping ready. And I was like, every

0:43:36.047 --> 0:43:38.247
<v Speaker 2>time I went in the kitchen and I put something down,

0:43:38.287 --> 0:43:39.887
<v Speaker 2>it was there when I went back in for it.

0:43:39.767 --> 0:43:40.407
<v Speaker 3>It was great.

0:43:40.527 --> 0:43:42.127
<v Speaker 4>So I was, yeah, I know what you mean.

0:43:42.287 --> 0:43:45.407
<v Speaker 2>Brent came back and I was like, yeah, I love you, but.

0:43:45.367 --> 0:43:46.007
<v Speaker 3>It's been nice.

0:43:46.127 --> 0:43:47.287
<v Speaker 4>Oh he's Brent back already.

0:43:47.407 --> 0:43:48.847
<v Speaker 2>He got back this week Wednesday.

0:43:48.887 --> 0:43:50.007
<v Speaker 4>Can you send him to my house?

0:43:50.287 --> 0:43:50.487
<v Speaker 1>Yes?

0:43:50.967 --> 0:43:53.367
<v Speaker 2>Actually he'd be really useful. He loves a baby. I

0:43:53.447 --> 0:43:55.567
<v Speaker 2>think he would anyway, So yes, those are my best

0:43:55.567 --> 0:43:55.887
<v Speaker 2>and worst.

0:43:55.887 --> 0:43:59.727
<v Speaker 4>The week before we go, we had a very interesting

0:43:59.767 --> 0:44:03.087
<v Speaker 4>discussion on yesterday's subscriber episode about whether it is ever

0:44:03.127 --> 0:44:07.207
<v Speaker 4>appropriate to buy a sex toy for a friend as

0:44:07.247 --> 0:44:10.687
<v Speaker 4>a gift and spoiler, one of us wrote this dilemma

0:44:11.127 --> 0:44:14.247
<v Speaker 4>and one of us was horrified. So if you want

0:44:14.247 --> 0:44:16.447
<v Speaker 4>to listen to that episode, there is a link to

0:44:16.567 --> 0:44:17.727
<v Speaker 4>it in our show notes.

0:44:17.927 --> 0:44:19.967
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to hear what the outlouders think about

0:44:19.967 --> 0:44:21.607
<v Speaker 2>whether or not you should do that. This is one

0:44:21.607 --> 0:44:22.927
<v Speaker 2>we definitely need you all to weigh in.

<v Speaker 3>I'm friends.

0:44:24.767 --> 0:44:26.887
<v Speaker 2>That's all we've got time for today and this week.

0:44:26.927 --> 0:44:29.127
