<v Speaker 2>She is our co host.

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:34.319
<v Speaker 1>She is not asleep. I tried my hardest to get

0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 1>her down for a nap for our record. It didn't happen.

0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:39.920
<v Speaker 1>So she's in the bouncer and hopefully she will fall asleep.

0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:41.800
<v Speaker 2>She wanted to have a yap in a yarn with this,

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 2>she really did.

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>She was keen. She's like girls, I slept through the

0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:45.920
<v Speaker 1>other episode last week.

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:48.040
<v Speaker 2>I missed out. I really want to be in part

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:49.879
<v Speaker 2>of this, especially if you're going to talk about me.

0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:53.040
<v Speaker 1>And speaking of last week, we are mixing things up

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>this season. We're going to try some new things out.

0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 1>So later on in the episode, I'll be bringing my

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>first rant. But first one.

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Thing not new and a bit of a fave slash

0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:04.960
<v Speaker 2>old faithful with the shitters. It's time for peak and pit,

0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:11.040
<v Speaker 2>y'all yuah quean eything's trough to shit keep please kick

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 2>things off.

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, I have missed doing peak and pick,

0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 1>so I haven't even been doing on on my social

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 1>so I'm so excited to get back into this my pit. Well,

0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>last week I was recording with mastitis. Well, I had

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:27.039
<v Speaker 1>the most excruciating pain of my life, and I just

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:28.960
<v Speaker 1>thought like, oh, your milk ducks go like under your

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 1>arm and a little bit onto your back and you

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I've got this little rash And I googled it and

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>it looked like this rush that some people get with mastitis.

0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 1>But I was like, I'm on antibiotics. Why isn't the

0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 1>mass titis going away? So finally went to see the

0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:42.840
<v Speaker 1>doctor and she's like, oh, what's that rash? And I

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, it was here when I saw you,

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 1>but it was very faint at the time. I didn't

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 1>think anything of it. Like I have really sensitive skin,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 1>so often I'll like use a body wash and I

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.880
<v Speaker 1>can get some weltz, you know, or I'll spray some

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 1>perfume and get welts on my skin, so I wasn't

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>like too alarmed by the rash, if that makes sense.

0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>And then I said I've got some of my back too,

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>and she's like and I just saw her face like

0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>drop and I was like, fuck.

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.240
<v Speaker 2>You don't ever want to see the doctor's face do anything?

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:12.200
<v Speaker 1>No, exactly, And so she had a look and she's like,

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:14.640
<v Speaker 1>it's shingles. You've got shingles. And I was just like,

0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:15.880
<v Speaker 1>you're kidding.

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Did you even know what that was like? Because you

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 2>messaged me and I wrote back, isn't that something old

0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 2>people yet?

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, Kelly, we're old. We're not all old.

0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:30.079
<v Speaker 2>I am like elderly elderly, like retirement home elderly.

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:31.959
<v Speaker 1>I think back in the day. But honestly, the number

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.359
<v Speaker 1>of people that I know our age who have had it.

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.919
<v Speaker 1>And it is actually obviously it's the chicken pox virus

0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.440
<v Speaker 1>that lays dormant in your body, But what happens is

0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 1>that if you're under extreme stress, say maybe you've had

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 1>a newborn baby and you've decided to go back to

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>work and you've also got a toddler, the chicken pox

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 1>virus kind of reignites, and that is what shingles is,

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:54.600
<v Speaker 1>so it's super infectious. So the first thing I'm thinking

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 1>of is like, cool, my newborn isn't vaccinated and the

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>rash was on my boot that I have been breastfeeding

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.239
<v Speaker 1>like crazy because I had masst aritis. I was like,

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:07.200
<v Speaker 1>they tell you to keep breastfeeding through it. I'm a

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 1>very hygienic person, so I knew that I've been washing

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 1>my hands and I wasn't like letting her touch the

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:15.040
<v Speaker 1>ration anyway. But I'm still pretty freaked out by it,

0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm not out of the woods yet. I think

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:18.679
<v Speaker 1>I've got one welt on my back that hasn't yet

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 1>scabbed over. So as soon as the scabs form, that

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 1>means that you can no longer be infected by that spot.

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 1>But my god, like and Charlie's never had chicken pox,

0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:30.079
<v Speaker 1>so that's really dangerous if you're adult getting she's vaccinated.

0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:33.400
<v Speaker 1>He had one vaccination. He checked his medical records and

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>he's had one vaccination for it, and you're mede to

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 1>get two when you're a kid. So when it rains

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 1>at pause like that is ridiculous. How do I get

0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 1>mastitis and the shing shingles?

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, you do yeah, I.

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Do have the world's worst bad luck.

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 2>So he hasn't gotten it, like she would show it.

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she would show it. She's been a bit unsettled,

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 1>but I think she's just like a bit more active

0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 1>and like maybe a bit bored, like, hey, we need

0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:00.800
<v Speaker 1>to do new stuff, more stuff, like I'm.

0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she's like I'm out of the newborn stage, like

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 2>we can leave the house. Now, take me for a walk.

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Please, okay okay, and also rude like she has been vaccinated,

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>but she can still get it. But the doctor was reassuring.

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:15.440
<v Speaker 1>She was like, look, if the girls get it, it's

0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.320
<v Speaker 1>much better for them to have it as kids than

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>it isn't as an adult. So just come in if

0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 1>they've got a ration, we'll take it from there. So

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:24.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking every day nothing.

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Yet whenever I see people with the stupid anti vax arguments,

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 2>I always think about, I mean, obviously there's way worse

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 2>things that we have vaccines for, but chicken pox, because

0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 2>it's something that stands out to me in my mind

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 2>as a kid, how awful and itchy and the color

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:43.960
<v Speaker 2>mine lotion and everything. How often do you hear about

0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:45.840
<v Speaker 2>a kid getting chicken pox these days?

0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 1>That is so true. I didn't even think about that.

0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not a hofly. You just don't forget getting chicken pox.

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I remember being in the chemist itching and my grandparents

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>having put socks on my hands.

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because they don't I need to. Yeah.

0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So I am starting to feel Probably today is

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>the best I felt in Ohanna, say, like ten days.

0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:12.480
<v Speaker 1>So the mastitis is really almost cleared up. I think

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:13.600
<v Speaker 1>that was my pitch.

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.760
<v Speaker 2>Mas diitis is also like I have friends that have

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.640
<v Speaker 2>ended up in hospital with mastitis.

0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.120
<v Speaker 1>It's awful. Well, the thing is with the mass artis

0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:23.400
<v Speaker 1>is I caught it early. I hadn't had any fevers

0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>or anything yet, and I was like, oh, I don't

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.159
<v Speaker 1>even know if I should go to the doctor, Like

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.119
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had a fever, but everything on the internet

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 1>was saying go, go go, because you get the gets

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>wet first. And I think I messaged you and you

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:35.160
<v Speaker 1>were like, yeah, I didn't get it that bad because

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:37.000
<v Speaker 1>your dad was really on top of it.

0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I literally had a fever one night and one boob

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:42.160
<v Speaker 2>and all of a sudden, it was like the middle

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.919
<v Speaker 2>of summer. Still, all of a sudden, I was like

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 2>putting all of these jumpers on and I was sitting

0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 2>at the table shivering, sweating, and my dad straight off

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.560
<v Speaker 2>the bat just went, you've got mast idis.

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>You're not supposed to do this. But whatever.

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.599
<v Speaker 2>He had like an old box of anybotics that he

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 2>hadn't used that weren't ones that I was allerge too,

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 2>so he like made me take two doses that day

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 2>and then like so I just got onto it and

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:07.799
<v Speaker 2>by the next day it was completely fine.

0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 1>It's so lucky, yeah, because you hear people just having

0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:14.240
<v Speaker 1>as you said, fevers, having to go to hospital it

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.480
<v Speaker 1>coming back just like not being cleared properly and then

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 1>you have to can turn into like a breast abscess.

0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>It's just insane. So really glad that I did go

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.120
<v Speaker 1>to the doctor. Really annoyed that I didn't point out

0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the rash when I was there, but that's all right.

0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:28.960
<v Speaker 1>We got there in the end.

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:29.799
<v Speaker 2>What's your pick.

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:35.039
<v Speaker 1>I have had a really lovely I would say two

0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:39.880
<v Speaker 1>weeks with Rue. Our relationship after having Suki has been

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>really rocky. And a lot of people say this that

0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:46.839
<v Speaker 1>it's something that happens when you have your your second baby,

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:49.240
<v Speaker 1>is that your first baby is kind of pissed off

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>at you for having the baby, and also just how

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:57.600
<v Speaker 1>much Charlie was the primary parent during my pregnancy because

0:06:57.640 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I was so exhausted and sick and tired and all

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.880
<v Speaker 1>of that jazz. And so it's been a minute since

0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 1>we've really connected and bonded. And I think because I'm

0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 1>out of that really intense fourth trimester newborn stage and

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:12.600
<v Speaker 1>the baby's kind of found a bit of a rhythm

0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm coming, you know, out of the fog, I've

0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 1>been able to actually have capacity to really invest in

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 1>my relationship with Ru again. And oh, like I could cry,

0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to because my makeup looks amazing today

0:07:27.600 --> 0:07:29.320
<v Speaker 1>and I don't really get to put makeup on that

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>often he does.

0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>That's so annoying because I'm just sitting here without a

0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:34.920
<v Speaker 2>scrap of it on. Thank you look so pretty.

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just been so nice. And I think the Sheridan incident,

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I really hit ro bottom that day.

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.760
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, I shouldn't laugh for Sheridan sheet saga.

0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:47.040
<v Speaker 1>When I had a breakdown in Sheridan because Rue was

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 1>running circles around me, I had a bit of an

0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 1>epiphany in my breakdown and I just went, something is

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.160
<v Speaker 1>not right. I need to be able to handle this better.

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I've got to change something up, and it kind of

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:00.160
<v Speaker 1>goes with one of my goals for this year is

0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 1>to stop rushing all the time. And so now for

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 1>the last week or so, I just am not rushing.

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:09.560
<v Speaker 1>We get home, like I'm getting her into the shower.

0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 1>She doesn't want to get in the shower. I'm just

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:14.440
<v Speaker 1>kind of like hurting her into the shower. I'm not

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:17.560
<v Speaker 1>being as like driven by the clock or like running

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.720
<v Speaker 1>against the clock in a way, I'm kind of just

0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 1>giving into it in a way of like she'll get

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to bed when she gets to bed, but it's not

0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>the hill I'm willing to die on anymore. I've come

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:28.840
<v Speaker 1>out of that newborn stage. The babies kind of hit

0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a bit of a stride. But then I've also just

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:33.800
<v Speaker 1>been like I need to just give in to her

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.200
<v Speaker 1>being a kid and not try to parent because I

0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>need to get her into bed by a certain time.

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Like it's better for me if I just enjoy the

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:45.080
<v Speaker 1>time that we have together and take it slow. And yeah,

0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>do you want to pull out a big box of

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.839
<v Speaker 1>Safari toys and pull them out one by one and

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 1>name what they are? When I'm trying to get your

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:53.960
<v Speaker 1>nappy on so that we can go and then have dinner.

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah, Like before, I was so highly strung for

0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:00.360
<v Speaker 1>some reason, Like I don't know why, but I was

0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 1>so highly strung and I was getting spun out by

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:07.920
<v Speaker 1>everything and I couldn't just enjoy the moment. And so

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I've really tried to do that for the last two

0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 1>weeks and it's just been so nice. Like I'm finding

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>that we have these little moments that are really fun

0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:21.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not stressed, and she's not as naughty because

0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like forcing her to do stuff that she

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:26.839
<v Speaker 1>doesn't want to do in this time period that I've allotted.

0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:29.640
<v Speaker 2>There's something to be said for having a routine but

0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.760
<v Speaker 2>also letting kids go at their own pace to a

0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:35.480
<v Speaker 2>certain extent because they know the routine they do.

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>And that's the funniest thing. Is Like my thing is

0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>like shoes off, wash hands. We're doing a shower, right,

0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:44.000
<v Speaker 1>and so she gets to the front door and she's like,

0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:48.040
<v Speaker 1>shoes off, washhands, do will we go to shower? And

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>then we get inside and as soon as she washes

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:52.959
<v Speaker 1>her hand, she runs away, Like so she knows the routine,

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 1>but she's being a kid, And I think that I

0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:58.320
<v Speaker 1>just got really highly strung for a moment. I'm sure

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:00.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like all to do with the new more stage

0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.400
<v Speaker 1>and being overwhelmed by everything, But yeah, I think that

0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 1>little sherid and breakdown was a really good reset for me,

0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:09.079
<v Speaker 1>just to be like, hey, this isn't working. What's gonna

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>work for us? And does it really matter what time

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:14.439
<v Speaker 1>she goes to bed at night? Yeah? And it doesn't.

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:16.880
<v Speaker 1>And honestly, she ends up going to bed at like

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.080
<v Speaker 1>eight because she enjoys the time that we're having and

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.440
<v Speaker 1>that we're out having the big feelings.

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 2>You know, she doesn't have a nap. What time does

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:24.560
<v Speaker 2>she wake up in the morning.

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>She wakes up at like seven.

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I would say, Lene puts himself to bed a daycare.

0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>How funny is that? It's my favorite thing when roue

0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:34.600
<v Speaker 1>at night is like I want to go to bed,

0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:37.079
<v Speaker 1>and I don't want to go to babe, let's go.

0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:42.840
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like no books and no books. I'm like, yes, I.

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.440
<v Speaker 2>Fucking hate reading books. I hate it.

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 1>So she pulled out five and then she bloody topped

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:51.040
<v Speaker 1>her drink bottle accidentally. She thought the lid was on top.

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.120
<v Speaker 1>I just filled it up, so it was a full

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>bottle of water on the couch, and the couch was

0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 1>like stopping when I was like, I don't have to

0:10:57.520 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 1>tell you no more books, like I've got to clean

0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>this up now, like let's just go to bed.

0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 2>And she was like, okay, okay, it's one thing that

0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:08.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't like doing. I don't mind, but he wants

0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 2>to read the same bloody book every time. And I

0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 2>know you've said to hide it, but then he'll just

0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 2>find another one and then that will be the one

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 2>that he wants to read every single bloody time.

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:18.800
<v Speaker 1>That's actually good for them the life.

0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:20.480
<v Speaker 2>I know, but it's suck.

0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:24.200
<v Speaker 1>No, look, it is so boring, But what makes it fun?

0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I like, let them finish the sentence I say the first,

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:28.880
<v Speaker 1>and that kind of makes it fun because then you're like, whoa,

0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:30.840
<v Speaker 1>they're really smart. I reckon that.

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:34.640
<v Speaker 2>When he wants to actually like do books like a

0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:38.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, like a nice story rather than just random

0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.680
<v Speaker 2>cars in a book, then I'll be more like, oh yeah,

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.160
<v Speaker 2>because I love to read and I like to do

0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:46.040
<v Speaker 2>voices and the performance of it all.

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Actually, our producer matter got rude like a big book

0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>for her birthday, a big book of doctor Zeus like

0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:54.360
<v Speaker 1>five stories, and I find those are really fun to

0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 1>read because they're tongue twisting and like sometimes I'll make mistakes,

0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:00.680
<v Speaker 1>so like, I don't know, it's like for me to

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:02.920
<v Speaker 1>read to her rather than like something Mondane, Oh.

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I know what you mean. That's why I like reading

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.439
<v Speaker 2>Harry McClary exactly, because I want to get through it

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.480
<v Speaker 2>without mistakes. That's my goal, and like to do every

0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:11.959
<v Speaker 2>all of the characters really well.

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're up, cal Sorry, I waffled

0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>on a little bit there.

0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 2>First, up, we need to discuss my kit, which is

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 2>having the two cats.

0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh, this is not a peak.

0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 2>No, it's not a peak. Listen, I don't regret it

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 2>at all, because it is literally the best thing ever

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 2>for Lenny. He gets his kitty and he lugs her

0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 2>around the house, even though she's like a full size

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.880
<v Speaker 2>cat now and he's just still a very small boy,

0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:43.960
<v Speaker 2>and he'll just be lugging her around the house and

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 2>he goes, oh, I just love my kitty so much.

0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 2>I just love her. And he goes look at her

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.960
<v Speaker 2>little cheeks like things that I've obviously he's overheard me

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:57.599
<v Speaker 2>say about babies, and he goes, look mummy, rockabye baby,

0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:00.960
<v Speaker 2>and he rocks her like he's a obsessed with her.

0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 2>They snuggle all night every night, like they are literal

0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:05.719
<v Speaker 2>best friends.

0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Of him snuggling her just so cute.

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Like it's exactly what we wanted for an animal for him,

0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:15.959
<v Speaker 2>Like it's just so cute. But she drives me mad.

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:21.080
<v Speaker 2>And when we had Percy's sister, she just wasn't annoying.

0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Marge is just so annoying. First up,

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 2>if anyone has any advice to get her to stop

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.920
<v Speaker 2>hissing on things. As I mentioned last week, she knows

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:35.080
<v Speaker 2>where her toilet is and just a couple of times

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:36.959
<v Speaker 2>a week she just is like, fuck you all, I'm

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna piss here, And it's just disgusting. She mews if

0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.640
<v Speaker 2>she's not getting her own way all the time, and

0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:47.520
<v Speaker 2>she's very loud with the meowing and the purring. She

0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:50.439
<v Speaker 2>jumps up on the kitchen bench. I have a squirter

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 2>that I squirt her with because she annoys me so much.

0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:56.199
<v Speaker 2>I'll just be like, get off that because she jumps

0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.320
<v Speaker 2>up on the kitchen bench. She jumps up on Lenny's

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:02.200
<v Speaker 2>table and tries to eat his food. She's just irritating me.

0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:05.520
<v Speaker 2>And that's my pit because and she also crash tackles

0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:06.360
<v Speaker 2>poor Percy.

0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:09.200
<v Speaker 1>It's an interesting thing, right, because when you introduce a

0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:14.240
<v Speaker 1>pet into the home, you have such high hopes that

0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the personality will fit. And I think you've had a

0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:20.560
<v Speaker 1>really good luck with the fact that you had Herbie,

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>great personality, Percy and then Holly. They've all been really cool.

0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Easy going cats.

0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like she is like me and a cat. I remember.

0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:37.400
<v Speaker 1>I remember Charlie's family. They had Frankie who was like

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 1>a rescue They think it was dingo mixed with something

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.320
<v Speaker 1>like she was just the coolest dog, but she just

0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.520
<v Speaker 1>fucking hated humans. So they were just like, we've got

0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>this dog, and like she was loving at times, but

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.000
<v Speaker 1>she was more like a cat to be honest. She

0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:53.280
<v Speaker 1>just was like wanted to be left alone. And I

0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:56.560
<v Speaker 1>remember them just being like so disappointed. But you've got

0:14:56.560 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>this animal. Now, You're like, you're not gonna give it

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 1>up just because they've got a like Personali they're annoying,

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Like you're gonna love them still, but yeah, it is

0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:06.320
<v Speaker 1>a gamble bringing a new personality into the family.

0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 2>And I just feel so mean because she is so cute,

0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Like she's so sweet and is just so loving. She

0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.320
<v Speaker 2>just wants to be cuddled all the time, and she's

0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 2>always purring. And but I also think that I don't

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.920
<v Speaker 2>have the tolerance for a kitten that I would have

0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:24.200
<v Speaker 2>prior as well.

0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's really normal, Like I don't think

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 1>i'd ever get a puppy. Like God, I think having

0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.280
<v Speaker 1>al when I think I adopted him when he was

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 1>like three or something, he'd already been toilet trained in

0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 1>every way and not annoying, you know, like kind of understood,

0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:40.320
<v Speaker 1>like one with the flow, like I think getting a

0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.440
<v Speaker 1>kitten or a puppy or like a baby animal. It's

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot.

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you can probably hear her at the moment, meowing

0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:48.720
<v Speaker 2>at the door because I won't let her in. But

0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:50.520
<v Speaker 2>you know why I won't let her in because Percy

0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 2>doesn't feel like playing. Right now, Percy is sitting with

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 2>me kindly with his little legs out, and he tolerates

0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:58.960
<v Speaker 2>her tackling him all the time.

0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:01.560
<v Speaker 1>It's so funny for the older pets because they're just

0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 1>like so pissed off. They're like, what the fuck is this?

0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 2>They like get into her. I'm like, mom, geez, Anyway,

0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 2>my peak is kind of random, and I need to

0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.880
<v Speaker 2>include the link to whatever recipe he uses in my

0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:17.080
<v Speaker 2>show notes. But the peak is my dad's luxA.

0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I love luxA same.

0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:22.680
<v Speaker 2>My Dad's been coming down to Sydney way more than

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.640
<v Speaker 2>he usually would to spend time with Nanny, and he

0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:29.600
<v Speaker 2>stays with me because we live closer. One night he

0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:32.000
<v Speaker 2>was like, Oh, I'm gonna cook luxA. This was ages

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:35.520
<v Speaker 2>ago now it was quite funny. Me and my girlfriend

0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Sammy still giggle about it though, because she came over

0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:41.040
<v Speaker 2>for dinner that night and I was like, oh, Dad's

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:44.760
<v Speaker 2>cooking luxA. And my dad is the crankiest man. He

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:48.440
<v Speaker 2>comes across as very charming to most people. He's probably

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of like me, just really charming, but also real

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.600
<v Speaker 2>cranky if you've got him in a mood. And so

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.240
<v Speaker 2>he was like grumbling around this night. Didn't even say

0:16:56.280 --> 0:17:00.280
<v Speaker 2>hello to Sammy when she we've known each other, so

0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 2>so just rumbling around and then he just puts the

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.280
<v Speaker 2>luxA in front of us. But his presentation was just

0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:07.600
<v Speaker 2>on point, with like the bean sprouts and the shalots

0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.879
<v Speaker 2>and it was just so funny. Anyway, he made it

0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.120
<v Speaker 2>again last night because he's down again. This week, there

0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.679
<v Speaker 2>was like seven people that came over to my house

0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:20.439
<v Speaker 2>because everyone wants his luxA. And it's just funny someone

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:23.919
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't cook, like he grew up not cooking in

0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:25.719
<v Speaker 2>our house. He wasn't a cook. He would cook every

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:27.399
<v Speaker 2>now and then, but it was like sausages, you know.

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 2>And now he's just the maker of this incredible luxA.

0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:34.879
<v Speaker 1>I love that, though. Is that his retirement thing that

0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:36.119
<v Speaker 1>he's gotten good into cooking?

0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I guess he's just shown more of an interest since

0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 2>we sort of all left home, and probably more so

0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 2>since retiring. I also realized the other day that my

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 2>parents retired quite young. They were both sixty. Like they've

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 2>got hopefully a long road, so they've you know, cut

0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:50.920
<v Speaker 2>time for hobbies.

0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's epic.

0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 2>I love that, But I guess it's also just nice

0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:56.639
<v Speaker 2>to spend a little bit more time with him. And

0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:58.560
<v Speaker 2>it's also really nice when he comes down, given that

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Luke is on night shift, to have company.

0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, for sure, I think that's really lovely. And any

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.920
<v Speaker 1>additional time that you get to spend with your family

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.040
<v Speaker 1>that you haven't planned, you know, it's always so precious.

0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:15.159
<v Speaker 2>Exactly exactly anyway, that is my peak. But after the break, can.

0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:16.880
<v Speaker 1>I just be a bitch for a sec? It's our

0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:28.080
<v Speaker 1>new segment to talk to me sometimes, Dolores. Sometimes you

0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:32.400
<v Speaker 1>have to be a high riding bitch to survive. Okay,

0:18:33.520 --> 0:18:35.639
<v Speaker 1>a quick reminder, Can I just be a bitch for

0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:38.840
<v Speaker 1>a sec? Our new segment is a sixty second timed

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:42.000
<v Speaker 1>rant about something that's on our mind. It could be big, small,

0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:44.879
<v Speaker 1>and then Cal and I discuss the topic. We'll be

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:47.680
<v Speaker 1>taking this in turns and this week I'm kicking things off.

0:18:48.200 --> 0:18:50.640
<v Speaker 1>So here we go. Can I just be a bitch

0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:53.399
<v Speaker 1>for a sec? Going from one to two? Okay, So

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:56.080
<v Speaker 1>my honest thoughts on this is that it is kind

0:18:56.080 --> 0:19:00.040
<v Speaker 1>of psychotic, like I am an insane person for so

0:19:00.280 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>willingly entering into this, because no one really told me.

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.080
<v Speaker 1>It was all like it'll be fine, like you've had

0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 1>a baby before, you'll know what to do. And it's like, yeah,

0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I know what to do with a baby because I've

0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:11.800
<v Speaker 1>had a baby before, But you know what I haven't

0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:13.879
<v Speaker 1>had before a three year old. And it's almost as

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:16.119
<v Speaker 1>if the three year old goes nuclear as soon as

0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:19.000
<v Speaker 1>you have this baby. It has these big, deep feelings

0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:23.080
<v Speaker 1>and you are left very sleep deprived, very emotional, maybe

0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of baby blues, trying to deal with

0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.560
<v Speaker 1>a toddler that really doesn't like you anymore. A lot

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:29.840
<v Speaker 1>of people are probably listening to this being like, yeah, duh.

0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:32.919
<v Speaker 1>But I feel like it's almost as if you have

0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:34.719
<v Speaker 1>no kids and you're like, we're going to have a baby,

0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:37.080
<v Speaker 1>and people who are very steadfast on not having kids

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:39.560
<v Speaker 1>are like, that seems like a weird idea. I feel

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:41.119
<v Speaker 1>like that's what I was like, because if you are

0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:43.560
<v Speaker 1>someone who has had one baby and they had a

0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>pretty okay time, they're just like, yeah, we're going to

0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:49.400
<v Speaker 1>have three. But if you ask someone who has had two,

0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:51.520
<v Speaker 1>they will flat out tell you that they're going to

0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:55.160
<v Speaker 1>have none. So my honest thoughts on having a second

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:57.639
<v Speaker 1>child right now going from one to two, Look, it

0:19:57.680 --> 0:20:00.000
<v Speaker 1>really depends on the day you ask me, because someday

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I will never have a child again, and

0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.159
<v Speaker 1>then other days I literally say I might.

0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:08.920
<v Speaker 2>Have a thood. You're insane, I know, Okay, so talk

0:20:08.960 --> 0:20:12.480
<v Speaker 2>to us about going from one to two, because every

0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 2>time we spoke, especially in the first oh six weeks

0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:20.200
<v Speaker 2>or so, I don't want to say you sounded regretful,

0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:23.439
<v Speaker 2>but I think you definitely had moments where you were, like,

0:20:24.359 --> 0:20:25.719
<v Speaker 2>more so about Rue.

0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:28.159
<v Speaker 1>Really, you think it's almost going to be like the

0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:30.320
<v Speaker 1>first time, like and if you've had a pretty kind

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:34.359
<v Speaker 1>of textbook experience with your first then you kind of

0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 1>think it's going to be the same. And it is.

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Like when I was in the depths of the sleep

0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:42.160
<v Speaker 1>deprivation and trying to feed and figuring it all out,

0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:44.080
<v Speaker 1>there was comfort in knowing that I'd done it before

0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:45.520
<v Speaker 1>and I had a bit of a confidence to it.

0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:48.600
<v Speaker 1>But what I didn't expect was kind of like seeing

0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Rue and Charlie like it was almost quite lonely during

0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:56.520
<v Speaker 1>that time, because I felt like in order to survive,

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you had to divide and conquer. So Charlie was automatically

0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Rue and I was on the baby. And also, you know,

0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 1>a newborn baby can't take that much from their father

0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:07.080
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning if you are breastfeeding, and just in general,

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 1>they want to be with you. They've been inside of

0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:10.920
<v Speaker 1>you for ten months, but it does feel like you're

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:13.920
<v Speaker 1>a little bit solo. And I felt like I almost

0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:17.399
<v Speaker 1>was a little bit jealous of Charlie and Rue's relationship

0:21:17.400 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 1>because right at that time, it was almost like I

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:22.399
<v Speaker 1>had seen Ru for the first time in months, like

0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:25.719
<v Speaker 1>I had the capacity to see her, and she was

0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:28.439
<v Speaker 1>so big. Charlie kept saying, it's just because you've had

0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the baby and the baby's so small that now you

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:33.840
<v Speaker 1>see ruin she's so big. But I got really upset

0:21:33.920 --> 0:21:36.840
<v Speaker 1>because I was like, I feel like I've missed I've

0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:40.840
<v Speaker 1>missed her growing. Like the last time we were always

0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:43.199
<v Speaker 1>holding hands, her hands were half the size as they

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:47.440
<v Speaker 1>are now. Like I got really sentimental about Rue. Then

0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.159
<v Speaker 1>you see get all these waves of emotions because your

0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:52.560
<v Speaker 1>first kid ends up like resenting you a little bit.

0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Like Ru was never horrible to me, Well, she was

0:21:56.760 --> 0:21:59.680
<v Speaker 1>probably a little bit, but she had these extra big

0:21:59.720 --> 0:22:03.880
<v Speaker 1>fear And what was really hard was watching her hang

0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:08.160
<v Speaker 1>out with Charlie and be completely the Rue I've always known,

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:12.359
<v Speaker 1>like so funny, so cheeky, all of that, and then

0:22:12.400 --> 0:22:15.480
<v Speaker 1>come to me and it's like she just didn't she

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the devil sports words with me. Yeah, And I really questioned,

0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:24.199
<v Speaker 1>like for the first time if I was meant to

0:22:24.200 --> 0:22:25.520
<v Speaker 1>be a mum, Like I was like, I don't know

0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:27.439
<v Speaker 1>if I'm even meant to be a mum of two kids,

0:22:27.440 --> 0:22:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Like I can't even handle my toddler, like and then

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I started imagining life, like what would it have been

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:35.320
<v Speaker 1>like maybe if we waited a bit more, and I

0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:38.000
<v Speaker 1>got to see her kind of turn into this like

0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:41.600
<v Speaker 1>three year old toddler. I don't know. It just made

0:22:41.640 --> 0:22:43.760
<v Speaker 1>me think, like I really became a parent that I

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:45.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to be. And that was kind of what

0:22:45.080 --> 0:22:47.720
<v Speaker 1>I was talking about in my peak today, was like

0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:51.399
<v Speaker 1>I was just really highly strung when I was looking

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:53.840
<v Speaker 1>after her, and that was what was really hard was

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:57.399
<v Speaker 1>I think I was really upset about the things I

0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:01.840
<v Speaker 1>had lost being pregnant and then obviously going into newborn territory.

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that although people can sort of talk about,

0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:08.199
<v Speaker 2>you know, we did that episode, what's it really like

0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:09.520
<v Speaker 2>to go from one to to them, we had the

0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:13.119
<v Speaker 2>different perspectives. Yeah, unless you're sort of in the middle

0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:17.719
<v Speaker 2>of it, you can't really articulate how or like estranged,

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:22.480
<v Speaker 2>you can almost feel, yeah, from your toddler and your husband,

0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:25.080
<v Speaker 2>but mostly your toddler, because like you know, you sort

0:23:25.080 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 2>of expect it with your husband, but you probably don't

0:23:27.200 --> 0:23:29.920
<v Speaker 2>expect it as much with your toddler. I didn't.

0:23:30.000 --> 0:23:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I didn't. It kind of hit me out of nowhere,

0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 1>and it was just it was really strange because I

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 1>think I was so consumed by my very shit pregnancy

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:41.959
<v Speaker 1>that I just was surviving.

0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:42.399
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:46.119
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't being a particularly amazing mum. Probably, I was

0:23:46.280 --> 0:23:49.879
<v Speaker 1>just surviving during that time. And as soon as I

0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:52.399
<v Speaker 1>had the baby, it was like I could see clearly

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:53.000
<v Speaker 1>a little.

0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Bit more and they're over thirty five, get pregnant, Okay,

0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:59.760
<v Speaker 2>it's no easy feat. There's a reason we're supposed to

0:23:59.760 --> 0:24:01.880
<v Speaker 2>have baby's at sixty. Yeah.

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:04.040
<v Speaker 1>And I think I went into the doctor and she,

0:24:04.200 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, they say, oh, how's your mental health? And

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:08.879
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, you know, it's it's not great,

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:11.919
<v Speaker 1>a bit grappy. I've had the blues and you know.

0:24:12.040 --> 0:24:15.280
<v Speaker 1>And she said, don't stress out about your toddlers so much,

0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:18.640
<v Speaker 1>because this is not a time where they really need you.

0:24:18.680 --> 0:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Like they're going to need you when they're older and

0:24:20.280 --> 0:24:22.840
<v Speaker 1>you're going to be present for that. It's okay right

0:24:22.880 --> 0:24:25.800
<v Speaker 1>now to not be the primary parent. Give yourself a

0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:27.639
<v Speaker 1>bit of grace. I think as a mum, you just

0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:29.879
<v Speaker 1>think you want to be their world. I was her

0:24:29.880 --> 0:24:33.040
<v Speaker 1>world for so long because I did everything. Charlie worked

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:37.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot, and then suddenly it's like Dad comes in

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.760
<v Speaker 1>this night and shining armor and he's like her world suddenly,

0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:43.199
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just like, well, so then it's just me

0:24:43.240 --> 0:24:45.280
<v Speaker 1>and Sukin. And then I'm like, well, it's not us

0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:47.760
<v Speaker 1>against them. But like this is where my brain was going,

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:51.040
<v Speaker 1>you know. And I don't want to sound too complaining.

0:24:51.359 --> 0:24:54.520
<v Speaker 1>It was amazing seeing them relationship deepen, and you know,

0:24:54.560 --> 0:24:57.800
<v Speaker 1>and now because he was so much of that primary parent,

0:24:57.920 --> 0:24:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it's now like he makes a point to come home

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:02.760
<v Speaker 1>for bedtime at a minimum, and he'll keep working after that.

0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:05.639
<v Speaker 1>But I guess I am a little bit sad that

0:25:05.720 --> 0:25:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm no longer the everything. Yeah, I don't know, which

0:25:10.680 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 1>sounds a bit silly.

0:25:11.880 --> 0:25:15.639
<v Speaker 2>No, it doesn't sound silly, because Luke's even pointed that

0:25:15.720 --> 0:25:18.520
<v Speaker 2>out to me before, Because sometimes I find it so

0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:23.080
<v Speaker 2>frustrating when len is just so obsessed with me and

0:25:23.400 --> 0:25:27.520
<v Speaker 2>just doesn't want to bar of anyone else, even Luke. Yeah,

0:25:27.560 --> 0:25:30.560
<v Speaker 2>but Luke's pointed out, you know, and it's true if

0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:32.600
<v Speaker 2>it was the other way around, you'd be so off it.

0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:34.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, one hundred percent.

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:36.719
<v Speaker 2>And it's true I still would like him to get

0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:38.080
<v Speaker 2>off me sometimes, though.

0:25:38.040 --> 0:25:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I think what was probably another thing which which we

0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:43.840
<v Speaker 1>did handle well, or I think I did handle well,

0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:46.479
<v Speaker 1>was like I really had to tap out of the

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:48.320
<v Speaker 1>little things that make me happy as a mum. And

0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I think that probably contributed to it. But it was

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:52.080
<v Speaker 1>almost like I had to be a bit selfish. I

0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 1>had to set boundaries on exactly like what I could

0:25:55.040 --> 0:25:58.320
<v Speaker 1>and couldn't do, things like perfect lunchboxes, you know, like

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:01.399
<v Speaker 1>Charlie was just honestly still doing lunchboxes now, like he's

0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:03.959
<v Speaker 1>doing a great job. But it was just that I

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:06.680
<v Speaker 1>had to let go of the things that I love

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:08.280
<v Speaker 1>about being a mom, like creating.

0:26:08.320 --> 0:26:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I loved doing lunchboxes.

0:26:10.560 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 1>My love language is gift giving, like I loved You're

0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:16.560
<v Speaker 1>very good at it gifts, and I think doing a

0:26:16.640 --> 0:26:18.479
<v Speaker 1>lunch box every day is like giving a little bit

0:26:18.480 --> 0:26:21.560
<v Speaker 1>of a gift, you know. And so it was hard

0:26:22.200 --> 0:26:25.320
<v Speaker 1>just giving up the things that I think to find

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 1>me as a mom, Like, you know, I wasn't doing

0:26:28.160 --> 0:26:30.960
<v Speaker 1>drop off, I wasn't taking her own little walks or

0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:35.120
<v Speaker 1>excursions like that was the really hard part. But the

0:26:35.160 --> 0:26:38.120
<v Speaker 1>best part about it, and everyone says this, so it's

0:26:38.160 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 1>like nothing new, but is seeing them together. Because while

0:26:41.200 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 1>she had these really big feelings towards me. She has

0:26:46.119 --> 0:26:49.080
<v Speaker 1>loved her sister from the first time that they have met,

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:53.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's so cute because she grew is the person

0:26:53.720 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 1>that can make Suki laugh the most. Oh my god,

0:26:56.880 --> 0:27:00.480
<v Speaker 1>it's so funny. And like when she started smiling, was like,

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:05.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna cry because it's so cute. Ru was like, look, mom, look,

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:08.640
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, yeah, she's smiling at you. She's smiling

0:27:08.680 --> 0:27:11.240
<v Speaker 1>at you. And she every time she'd be like, look

0:27:11.320 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>look because she'd never done it before, and she was like,

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:16.600
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, look at what Suki's doing. And she

0:27:16.640 --> 0:27:21.000
<v Speaker 1>would just that is just the cutest thing. It's beautiful.

0:27:21.040 --> 0:27:24.280
<v Speaker 1>Like I'd lay Suki down on her like play mat

0:27:24.320 --> 0:27:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and have the little wooden thing with the dangly bits

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:29.800
<v Speaker 1>whatever it's called, the mobile is it, and like there's

0:27:29.840 --> 0:27:32.600
<v Speaker 1>no room, it's a tiny little playmat. Anyway, Rue just

0:27:32.640 --> 0:27:34.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of like squeezes in and she's.

0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Like, I'm just gonna scoot chun in here.

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:39.639
<v Speaker 1>And then she's like telling Suki because they're like different animals,

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:42.000
<v Speaker 1>She's like, this one your favorite. Yeah, I like purple,

0:27:42.119 --> 0:27:44.359
<v Speaker 1>like this elephant. Yeah, I like purple. You like green?

0:27:44.400 --> 0:27:47.480
<v Speaker 1>You like green? And I was just like, oh, this

0:27:47.560 --> 0:27:50.119
<v Speaker 1>is this is what I always wanted. I always wanted

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:55.479
<v Speaker 1>a sister to share my life with, and Ru is

0:27:55.520 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 1>so caring and sharing. To see her with a sister

0:27:57.640 --> 0:28:01.240
<v Speaker 1>is just like so cute. And to know that they're

0:28:01.240 --> 0:28:04.600
<v Speaker 1>going to like have each other, you know, for their

0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:09.640
<v Speaker 1>lifetime is like through everything. Yeah, so it's all worth

0:28:09.680 --> 0:28:14.040
<v Speaker 1>a bit wow. Like, yeah, I mourned the relationship I

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:17.600
<v Speaker 1>had with Rue a lot, but it does come back

0:28:17.640 --> 0:28:19.439
<v Speaker 1>to it, like it comes full circle and then you

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:23.159
<v Speaker 1>start to like meet each other again and form that

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 1>bond again.

0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:28.680
<v Speaker 2>So what would you say the hardest moments that you've

0:28:28.760 --> 0:28:30.680
<v Speaker 2>just gone Oh, my very word.

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I think anytime you're looking after both of them and

0:28:35.040 --> 0:28:38.520
<v Speaker 1>that early new newborn stage. Even now, like I have

0:28:38.640 --> 0:28:42.360
<v Speaker 1>one day a week with just Rue and Suki where

0:28:42.360 --> 0:28:44.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm by myself. So the one day that Rud doesn't

0:28:44.480 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>go to daycare, that was one of the days that

0:28:47.240 --> 0:28:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I have my share to meltdown. That was a Friday,

0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and most Fridays, Charlie would have to come home early

0:28:52.120 --> 0:28:55.000
<v Speaker 1>to help me. The hardest part is, yeah, having them

0:28:55.040 --> 0:28:58.640
<v Speaker 1>both by yourself and trying to do anything.

0:28:59.280 --> 0:29:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Because with you were so like your postpartum period with

0:29:03.800 --> 0:29:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Suki has been so different to Ru's. You were out

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 2>and about every day, going to your moms and bubs,

0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 2>at the movies, going for your walks, going for like

0:29:14.240 --> 0:29:18.640
<v Speaker 2>you were so out there with Rue. But yeah, Suki,

0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:21.719
<v Speaker 2>you're like, I'm just gonna stay here for me.

0:29:21.800 --> 0:29:24.040
<v Speaker 1>That's been the hardest thing. It's like I have not

0:29:24.200 --> 0:29:29.000
<v Speaker 1>wanted to leave the house. I've been like too exhausted.

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I think the exhaustion and everyone talks about this is

0:29:31.440 --> 0:29:33.720
<v Speaker 1>on it because you're like, have a toddler. It's like

0:29:34.520 --> 0:29:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Rue gets into our bed pretty much every night in

0:29:36.480 --> 0:29:39.080
<v Speaker 1>the morning, so we don't sleep in, like we get

0:29:39.160 --> 0:29:41.560
<v Speaker 1>up when she wants to get up, so you don't

0:29:41.600 --> 0:29:45.400
<v Speaker 1>have the luxury of that spare time. Because the spare time.

0:29:46.240 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking, like, before it was one kid, so my

0:29:48.680 --> 0:29:51.960
<v Speaker 1>brain was just solely on one kid. Now it's barely

0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:54.640
<v Speaker 1>on Suki. It's just like eat, sleep, shit, repeat. And

0:29:54.840 --> 0:29:57.080
<v Speaker 1>when she's asleep, I'm like, all right, what do I

0:29:57.080 --> 0:30:00.520
<v Speaker 1>need to do for this toddler? Your brain capacit is

0:30:00.600 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 1>just so small, Like, yeah, I feel like my world

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:05.560
<v Speaker 1>shrunk a little bit more and it is so much

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:07.400
<v Speaker 1>harder for me to get out the house, and when

0:30:07.400 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I have them, it's like the times that I have

0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:11.720
<v Speaker 1>tried to get out the house with them has turned

0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:13.800
<v Speaker 1>to absolute shit. So then it makes you want to

0:30:13.840 --> 0:30:16.400
<v Speaker 1>stay in more, which isn't great for the toddler. So

0:30:17.000 --> 0:30:18.800
<v Speaker 1>that would be the hardest part, just that it is

0:30:18.880 --> 0:30:22.680
<v Speaker 1>so different to your first matt leave in my experience,

0:30:23.480 --> 0:30:26.400
<v Speaker 1>and just having to kind of go with the flow,

0:30:26.520 --> 0:30:28.960
<v Speaker 1>like really learning to go with the flow, which I

0:30:29.040 --> 0:30:31.520
<v Speaker 1>was really good at with one kid and struggled a

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:34.040
<v Speaker 1>little bit with two. But now we're back on that train.

0:30:34.240 --> 0:30:37.640
<v Speaker 1>So oh. I just think anyone out there who's going

0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:39.720
<v Speaker 1>through it right now, like in the depths of just

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>in that newborn stage, and they're like, what, maybe what

0:30:43.240 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 1>have I done? Or this isn't quite what I thought

0:30:45.480 --> 0:30:48.840
<v Speaker 1>it was going to be. It does get better. Like

0:30:48.880 --> 0:30:52.320
<v Speaker 1>I look to my friends who have kids now with

0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.920
<v Speaker 1>their two kids, and they're in maybe like six and

0:30:56.000 --> 0:30:59.680
<v Speaker 1>four something, and they are just having the best time.

0:31:00.120 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 1>They are going on holidays and the kids are like

0:31:02.760 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 1>self sufficient but fun and like they're doing the best stuff,

0:31:05.720 --> 0:31:07.920
<v Speaker 1>and they're all just like, don't worry, girl, it gets better.

0:31:08.000 --> 0:31:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Like this, It's gonna get so much better. And this

0:31:11.320 --> 0:31:13.600
<v Speaker 1>like little blip and time is going to feel like nothing,

0:31:13.840 --> 0:31:15.680
<v Speaker 1>So just keep going.

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:22.520
<v Speaker 2>I have a few recommendations.

0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've seen that you've added an extra one.

0:31:25.120 --> 0:31:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I did because I just thought of it. Well, I

0:31:26.880 --> 0:31:28.880
<v Speaker 2>thought of it while you were talking earlier, and I

0:31:28.920 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 2>popped it in because it's a great recommendation.

0:31:31.520 --> 0:31:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Cool.

0:31:32.360 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 2>So first one is something that you can enjoy if

0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:36.880
<v Speaker 2>you enjoy medical dramas.

0:31:37.360 --> 0:31:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, I've just well not just but a few

0:31:39.760 --> 0:31:41.760
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago we finished The Pit and I have a

0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:44.200
<v Speaker 1>big hole in my heart where the Pit used to live.

0:31:44.280 --> 0:31:49.720
<v Speaker 2>What's the Pit? Okay, Well, this is Key Reese Sells's recommendation.

0:31:50.000 --> 0:31:52.920
<v Speaker 1>It's called The Pit. It's something like maybe twelve episodes.

0:31:52.960 --> 0:31:56.560
<v Speaker 1>It's set in a Pittsburgh emergency room, and the premises

0:31:56.640 --> 0:31:59.360
<v Speaker 1>each episode is an hour of a twelve hour shift

0:31:59.360 --> 0:32:04.000
<v Speaker 1>in an emergence room. Oh yes, okay, And the series

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:06.520
<v Speaker 1>starts on like the first day where these kind of

0:32:06.600 --> 0:32:10.000
<v Speaker 1>like junior doctors have joined the team, and it goes

0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:12.640
<v Speaker 1>through what happens in a twelve hour shift and it's

0:32:12.680 --> 0:32:16.080
<v Speaker 1>freaking crazy. So you really get to see what it

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:21.080
<v Speaker 1>is like on the front line of medical emergencies in America.

0:32:21.160 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 1>And it's really interesting because when this show launched in

0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the States, he's like, yeah, I really liked it. It

0:32:28.840 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 1>was what we watched it at my new on stage.

0:32:31.080 --> 0:32:33.600
<v Speaker 1>There were all of these medical professionals who came out

0:32:33.640 --> 0:32:36.880
<v Speaker 1>and said, this show is the most accurate show we

0:32:36.960 --> 0:32:39.640
<v Speaker 1>have ever seen about what it is truly like to

0:32:39.640 --> 0:32:44.080
<v Speaker 1>be a medical professional in the United States. So there

0:32:44.120 --> 0:32:45.680
<v Speaker 1>are so many things that happens, and I want to

0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:47.840
<v Speaker 1>tell you too much because I think that's kind of

0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:50.000
<v Speaker 1>what the beauty of it in watching it, but.

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:51.560
<v Speaker 2>It's just how many amazons.

0:32:52.520 --> 0:32:54.200
<v Speaker 1>This is the first season, so it's been renewed for

0:32:54.240 --> 0:32:56.680
<v Speaker 1>a second season. I believe the second season will come

0:32:56.680 --> 0:33:00.520
<v Speaker 1>out at the beginning of twenty twenty six. So honestly,

0:33:01.000 --> 0:33:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I have recommended it to so many people. It is

0:33:04.520 --> 0:33:08.440
<v Speaker 1>thrilling to watch. It's heartbreaking, but you just realize, like

0:33:09.320 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>how much those doctors and nurses are dealing with on

0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:13.280
<v Speaker 1>a daily basis.

0:33:13.360 --> 0:33:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Doctors and nurses, It's insane. I went to see Adam

0:33:17.520 --> 0:33:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Kay last month and he wrote a book called This

0:33:21.800 --> 0:33:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Is Going to Hurt. There's a really good TV series

0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 2>I think also on Binch, which is based on the

0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:28.680
<v Speaker 2>book that he wrote, he was a doctor in the

0:33:28.880 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 2>NHS in the UK for gosh, twenty years or whatnot,

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:37.320
<v Speaker 2>and it's a he always talks so much about the

0:33:37.360 --> 0:33:41.480
<v Speaker 2>mental health of the frontline workers in the UK, in Australia,

0:33:41.480 --> 0:33:45.320
<v Speaker 2>in America, every single place in the entire world, and

0:33:45.440 --> 0:33:50.080
<v Speaker 2>I think that we forget about that. Sometimes you forget

0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:53.840
<v Speaker 2>about the real person that has to deal with everyone

0:33:53.880 --> 0:33:57.040
<v Speaker 2>in the waiting room, the heartbreak of seeing the most awful,

0:33:58.200 --> 0:34:02.400
<v Speaker 2>awful thing, like the mental health. I sometimes think of

0:34:02.480 --> 0:34:05.760
<v Speaker 2>my dad and why he is so cranky. It's because

0:34:05.760 --> 0:34:08.520
<v Speaker 2>of forty years of just seeing the most fucked up

0:34:08.520 --> 0:34:09.719
<v Speaker 2>shit as a paramedic.

0:34:09.920 --> 0:34:13.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so first on seeing ugh, just just that they're

0:34:14.000 --> 0:34:17.080
<v Speaker 1>expected just to go from especially like in an emergency room,

0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:20.000
<v Speaker 1>like going from patient to patient, like you might lose

0:34:20.000 --> 0:34:22.160
<v Speaker 1>a patient and then there's just another one waiting there

0:34:22.160 --> 0:34:24.399
<v Speaker 1>for you to pick up. Like where is the time

0:34:24.440 --> 0:34:28.560
<v Speaker 1>for these professionals to really digest what's happened? And they

0:34:28.680 --> 0:34:30.520
<v Speaker 1>go through a lot of that because obviously these new

0:34:30.600 --> 0:34:34.600
<v Speaker 1>junior doctors that are starting have their first losses and

0:34:34.760 --> 0:34:36.879
<v Speaker 1>you know they kind of navigating that and you see

0:34:36.880 --> 0:34:39.799
<v Speaker 1>that in real time across a shift. You know, having

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:41.680
<v Speaker 1>a loss and a shift, but still having ten hours

0:34:41.680 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 1>of a shift left to get.

0:34:43.040 --> 0:34:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Through going home. Remember when we had Sandy, my bestI

0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:49.000
<v Speaker 2>on I think it was last year, returned to work.

0:34:49.040 --> 0:34:51.440
<v Speaker 2>We can link it in the show notes. And she

0:34:52.160 --> 0:34:55.720
<v Speaker 2>is a nurse with the Mark Hughes Foundation. So dealing

0:34:55.719 --> 0:34:59.320
<v Speaker 2>with brain cancer, like I set, how do you compartmentalize

0:34:59.360 --> 0:35:02.680
<v Speaker 2>that literally dying and then going home to your three kids.

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:06.680
<v Speaker 2>It's just it would be so hard for them. Yeah, okay, well,

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:09.640
<v Speaker 2>thank you, Kiris, because now I'm adding that to my list,

0:35:10.040 --> 0:35:12.480
<v Speaker 2>So you can add Pulse on Netflix to your list.

0:35:12.760 --> 0:35:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Amazing. Tell me about it.

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:18.240
<v Speaker 2>It's a medical drama based in Florida in the US.

0:35:18.400 --> 0:35:23.040
<v Speaker 2>It's more about the lives of the doctors though, but

0:35:23.080 --> 0:35:26.160
<v Speaker 2>there is still like a really good amount of the

0:35:26.200 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 2>emergencies and the cases and that sort of thing. It's

0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:32.160
<v Speaker 2>just the one season, and it's also it goes to

0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:38.160
<v Speaker 2>flashbacks because it's based around a sexual harassment claim. Oh

0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:42.520
<v Speaker 2>interesting within the hospital. It's so good. I mean, it's ridiculous.

0:35:42.560 --> 0:35:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it's very far fetched, and I'm sure doctors

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:47.960
<v Speaker 2>are probably like, this is absolutely it's very Gray's Anatomy

0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:51.160
<v Speaker 2>vibe that's good though there's a place for grace hotties.

0:35:51.840 --> 0:35:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Hotties with their dramas. But I absolutely loved it, so

0:35:57.960 --> 0:36:01.720
<v Speaker 2>did my sister and wear big connoisseurs kind of whatever

0:36:01.719 --> 0:36:04.120
<v Speaker 2>that word is for medical dramas, and we have very

0:36:04.160 --> 0:36:07.920
<v Speaker 2>high expectations because we are long standing Grades Anatomy fans.

0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:11.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's on Netflix. There's just the one season, and

0:36:11.120 --> 0:36:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if they will renew it because it's

0:36:13.680 --> 0:36:17.440
<v Speaker 2>one of those shows it was like, I want to

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:19.680
<v Speaker 2>know what else is going to happen, But it also

0:36:19.719 --> 0:36:22.320
<v Speaker 2>did neatly wrap up, so I don't know, is there.

0:36:22.200 --> 0:36:24.080
<v Speaker 1>A space for a second season. Maybe it'd be a

0:36:24.120 --> 0:36:26.600
<v Speaker 1>different like still under the same umbrella, but it'd be

0:36:26.640 --> 0:36:28.600
<v Speaker 1>a whole new group of doctors and something's happened.

0:36:29.000 --> 0:36:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, there's definitely a lot that they could still

0:36:31.760 --> 0:36:36.120
<v Speaker 2>explore within that group. Okay, but the main thing, or

0:36:36.160 --> 0:36:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the main two or three things were closed nicely, which

0:36:39.320 --> 0:36:42.879
<v Speaker 2>I really appreciate with a pilot show, and they don't

0:36:42.880 --> 0:36:44.919
<v Speaker 2>know if they're going to get another season, Like, let's

0:36:44.960 --> 0:36:46.480
<v Speaker 2>not leave too many things open.

0:36:46.320 --> 0:36:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Ended it really I agree.

0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:51.200
<v Speaker 2>I agree my next two recommendations, I'll try to keep

0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:53.799
<v Speaker 2>them brief. It's not anything new, but I talked about

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:55.399
<v Speaker 2>it on Insta and a lot of people like, oh,

0:36:55.400 --> 0:36:57.160
<v Speaker 2>that's such a good idea, so I thought i'd mentioned

0:36:57.200 --> 0:37:00.439
<v Speaker 2>it is putting a platter out for dinner. So every

0:37:00.719 --> 0:37:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Monday night now, Lenny and I have a platter for dinner,

0:37:03.960 --> 0:37:07.080
<v Speaker 2>so I cut up cheese, we have crackers. I cut

0:37:07.160 --> 0:37:10.400
<v Speaker 2>up so much fruit and veg and it's also for me.

0:37:11.040 --> 0:37:15.680
<v Speaker 2>I struggle really hard to eat healthy food because I'm

0:37:15.800 --> 0:37:18.400
<v Speaker 2>very lazy, but I have to cut it up anyway

0:37:18.760 --> 0:37:20.840
<v Speaker 2>for us, So it's like one way for me to

0:37:20.840 --> 0:37:22.799
<v Speaker 2>eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, whereas I might

0:37:22.880 --> 0:37:25.920
<v Speaker 2>not at different other points during the week. And He'll

0:37:25.960 --> 0:37:28.880
<v Speaker 2>always try one of everything, which I love. It's just

0:37:29.000 --> 0:37:31.440
<v Speaker 2>really really fun, and it's a great way to get

0:37:31.440 --> 0:37:35.040
<v Speaker 2>them to try different things and eat different foods because

0:37:35.120 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 2>it's like a little game for them as well, and

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:39.240
<v Speaker 2>it's such a fun little treat.

0:37:39.360 --> 0:37:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that's such a good idea, such a good idea.

0:37:41.880 --> 0:37:44.799
<v Speaker 1>A girlfriend of mine has toast nights, so on nights

0:37:44.800 --> 0:37:48.319
<v Speaker 1>when she just cannot be bothered cooking totally, yeah, she'll

0:37:48.360 --> 0:37:50.400
<v Speaker 1>put all the spreads out so then the kids can

0:37:50.440 --> 0:37:52.719
<v Speaker 1>have whatever spreads that they want on toasts. I just

0:37:52.760 --> 0:37:55.360
<v Speaker 1>think that's so fun, like imagining an adult and thinking

0:37:55.400 --> 0:37:57.920
<v Speaker 1>back to that, like remember when Mum used to do toast.

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:04.600
<v Speaker 2>I think anything where we can cut the expectations of

0:38:05.280 --> 0:38:07.279
<v Speaker 2>a home cooked meal that they're probably not going to

0:38:07.360 --> 0:38:10.759
<v Speaker 2>fucking eat anyway. Oven food sometimes, I'm not Let's just

0:38:10.800 --> 0:38:13.080
<v Speaker 2>have an oven food night. Those Dino nugs.

0:38:13.160 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, that's such a good idea.

0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:18.759
<v Speaker 2>Especially because Luke is at work and I never cook

0:38:18.800 --> 0:38:22.680
<v Speaker 2>for myself. I'm just gods, I'm so lazy. Anything where

0:38:22.760 --> 0:38:25.839
<v Speaker 2>I can just what can we both have? That is

0:38:25.920 --> 0:38:30.960
<v Speaker 2>so easy. Finally, beer pong. Beer pong is my favorite game,

0:38:31.120 --> 0:38:32.839
<v Speaker 2>Like I love It's not my favorite game, but I

0:38:32.880 --> 0:38:36.359
<v Speaker 2>love playing it so much. Yeah, I've taught Lenny how

0:38:36.360 --> 0:38:40.879
<v Speaker 2>to play. That's genius, it is. He's so much better

0:38:40.920 --> 0:38:42.920
<v Speaker 2>than me at it. I'm like, you're going to slay

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:46.080
<v Speaker 2>when you're of drinking age, my friend. We set up

0:38:46.080 --> 0:38:48.719
<v Speaker 2>the cups. Listen. He doesn't follow the rules exactly, but

0:38:49.120 --> 0:38:51.680
<v Speaker 2>it's really fun for me because I love beer pong,

0:38:51.760 --> 0:38:54.239
<v Speaker 2>so I consider it good practice and he just has

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:56.040
<v Speaker 2>so much fun with it. So we get the cups out.

0:38:56.040 --> 0:38:58.719
<v Speaker 2>We've got all the balls. It's great teacher kid how

0:38:58.719 --> 0:38:59.520
<v Speaker 2>to play beer pongle.

0:39:01.040 --> 0:39:03.879
<v Speaker 1>Those games are so good to play, especially if there's

0:39:04.360 --> 0:39:06.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe if you've got different colored balls or something like that,

0:39:06.800 --> 0:39:08.560
<v Speaker 1>so you're like, let's get the yellow ball into the

0:39:08.640 --> 0:39:10.960
<v Speaker 1>red cup or just to tweak it a little bit

0:39:10.960 --> 0:39:14.600
<v Speaker 1>and turn it educational. Yeah, exactly, and it's good for

0:39:14.640 --> 0:39:17.600
<v Speaker 1>hand eye coordination. Amazing, such good records.

0:39:17.280 --> 0:39:21.200
<v Speaker 2>Carl, You're so welcome. You're recommending a bra I am.

0:39:21.400 --> 0:39:24.960
<v Speaker 1>It's by the brand first thing, which is an Ozzy

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Girl and Sydney started this brand and they're just really

0:39:28.880 --> 0:39:32.400
<v Speaker 1>good bras. I just got sent their new wireless bralette

0:39:32.480 --> 0:39:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and it is amazing. Like I'm breastfeeding now on it,

0:39:34.719 --> 0:39:37.960
<v Speaker 1>but like it's the first bralette that I've worn that

0:39:38.040 --> 0:39:43.800
<v Speaker 1>actually feels like supportive. My boobs just feel so held

0:39:43.840 --> 0:39:46.920
<v Speaker 1>in them. Almost feels like I'm wearing nothing but something

0:39:47.600 --> 0:39:50.839
<v Speaker 1>in a way. And they're really reasonable, I think for

0:39:50.920 --> 0:39:53.480
<v Speaker 1>an Australian made bra, so fifty nine dollars for the

0:39:53.800 --> 0:39:58.840
<v Speaker 1>new wireless bralette and they come really quickly. Lucy, my

0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.359
<v Speaker 1>bestie who I host an the podcast with, she said

0:40:01.360 --> 0:40:04.560
<v Speaker 1>the strapless is like amazing. I haven't tried that one,

0:40:04.640 --> 0:40:08.239
<v Speaker 1>yet they look we can yeah, and they come in

0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:11.239
<v Speaker 1>like neutral colors, So I've got this chocolate brown one,

0:40:11.280 --> 0:40:13.040
<v Speaker 1>which is also one of their new colors, and it's

0:40:13.239 --> 0:40:16.000
<v Speaker 1>just a joy to wear. So if you're looking for

0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:18.319
<v Speaker 1>a new bra, if you like me and can only

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:21.840
<v Speaker 1>really wear bralettes, they're great, So give them a try.

0:40:22.080 --> 0:40:24.720
<v Speaker 2>And with that, we will love you and leave your shitters,

0:40:24.719 --> 0:40:27.200
<v Speaker 2>and we'll be back next week with a spicy conversation

0:40:27.280 --> 0:40:28.320
