A lot of 58 00:02:41,487 --> 00:02:45,087 Speaker 1: people are saying that there is a new mysterious doctor 59 00:02:45,367 --> 00:02:48,487 Speaker 1: in town in Hollywood. The rumors are actually that he's 60 00:02:48,567 --> 00:02:52,567 Speaker 1: practicing in New York because there are certain celebrities. 61 00:02:52,847 --> 00:02:54,687 Speaker 3: Why are we assuming it's a heat could very well 62 00:02:54,727 --> 00:02:55,207 Speaker 3: be a shape. 63 00:02:55,207 --> 00:02:57,567 Speaker 1: Absolutely did I say, hey, yeah, you did? 64 00:02:57,647 --> 00:02:58,767 Speaker 2: Yep, you meant they. 65 00:02:59,047 --> 00:03:00,887 Speaker 1: That's unconscious biasah it is. 66 00:03:01,127 --> 00:03:02,047 Speaker 3: We must undo that. 67 00:03:02,007 --> 00:03:07,047 Speaker 1: Because all doctors are men, because for the good ones. Okay, 68 00:03:07,207 --> 00:03:11,127 Speaker 1: So there are certain celebrities including Lindsay Loewen who is 69 00:03:11,167 --> 00:03:14,367 Speaker 1: thirty eight, to Me Moore who is sixty two, donad 70 00:03:14,367 --> 00:03:16,927 Speaker 1: Oliverasachi who is sixty nine, and Christina Aguilera who is 71 00:03:16,967 --> 00:03:20,087 Speaker 1: forty three, and even Matt Damon who's fifty four. And 72 00:03:20,287 --> 00:03:23,327 Speaker 1: suddenly they're looking the same as they did twenty years ago. 73 00:03:23,927 --> 00:03:26,007 Speaker 1: And when I say that, I mean that they don't 74 00:03:26,047 --> 00:03:28,327 Speaker 1: look like they've had work. And a lot of those people, 75 00:03:28,367 --> 00:03:33,007 Speaker 1: particularly the women, have had very noticeable work, some may 76 00:03:33,047 --> 00:03:37,807 Speaker 1: say work that was not ideal. And now they are 77 00:03:37,847 --> 00:03:40,767 Speaker 1: looking just like themselves, but twenty years ago. 78 00:03:41,047 --> 00:03:44,607 Speaker 2: Can I add one of my disclaimers, this segment is 79 00:03:44,647 --> 00:03:47,767 Speaker 2: pure speculation. Maybe their faces changed on their own. 80 00:03:47,967 --> 00:03:48,447 Speaker 4: That happens. 81 00:03:48,487 --> 00:03:50,247 Speaker 2: Sometimes you wake up and your lips are huge, your 82 00:03:50,287 --> 00:03:52,687 Speaker 2: cheekbones have moved up to your forehead, like it just happens. 83 00:03:52,767 --> 00:03:54,647 Speaker 4: That is what some of us are waiting for, it 84 00:03:54,847 --> 00:03:56,247 Speaker 4: for our collagen to come back. 85 00:03:56,287 --> 00:04:01,247 Speaker 1: So there is some seriously Benjamin buttonshit going down. There 86 00:04:01,287 --> 00:04:02,527 Speaker 1: was a story and Mum and Me are written by 87 00:04:02,527 --> 00:04:06,247 Speaker 1: Aaron Dougherty that says there's a reason celebrity faces look different. 88 00:04:06,287 --> 00:04:09,167 Speaker 1: And she said, this is the undetectable era where all 89 00:04:09,407 --> 00:04:14,087 Speaker 1: telltale signs of cosmetic surgery have become blurred. So it's 90 00:04:14,127 --> 00:04:17,967 Speaker 1: almost like no makeup, makeup, but no surgery surgery. 91 00:04:18,207 --> 00:04:22,247 Speaker 4: Apparently it's sort of a reaction to the Instagram face. 92 00:04:22,967 --> 00:04:24,607 Speaker 1: In the Kardashian face. 93 00:04:24,407 --> 00:04:27,127 Speaker 4: The Kardashian thing, and a few things were happening ten 94 00:04:27,167 --> 00:04:30,327 Speaker 4: to fifteen years ago. First is that people were happy 95 00:04:30,367 --> 00:04:32,087 Speaker 4: to look like they had work done. And the second 96 00:04:32,207 --> 00:04:35,567 Speaker 4: was that people might have waited until they were sixty 97 00:04:35,647 --> 00:04:37,607 Speaker 4: to get a face lift and then they suddenly looked 98 00:04:37,687 --> 00:04:40,527 Speaker 4: very different. But what some experts are saying in this 99 00:04:40,607 --> 00:04:43,367 Speaker 4: is because people are starting younger and younger, it's not 100 00:04:43,447 --> 00:04:46,247 Speaker 4: as much of a shock when someone kind of shows 101 00:04:46,327 --> 00:04:50,567 Speaker 4: up and looks younger because they've been doing longer term treeands. 102 00:04:50,767 --> 00:04:52,207 Speaker 3: So the skin. 103 00:04:52,047 --> 00:04:54,327 Speaker 4: Stuff I found, I just find this all very very pervy. 104 00:04:54,407 --> 00:04:56,367 Speaker 4: But there was an influencer that they spoke to on 105 00:04:56,567 --> 00:05:00,207 Speaker 4: You Beauty called Chloe Morello, and she was in I 106 00:05:00,207 --> 00:05:04,127 Speaker 4: think LA and went to Kim Kardashian's skin person and 107 00:05:04,167 --> 00:05:06,167 Speaker 4: they did some ridiculous facial that. 108 00:05:06,167 --> 00:05:09,127 Speaker 1: Was it's like a plasma facial where they take out 109 00:05:09,287 --> 00:05:11,327 Speaker 1: some of your blood and then they put lots of 110 00:05:11,367 --> 00:05:13,167 Speaker 1: little holes in your face and then they put your 111 00:05:13,207 --> 00:05:15,367 Speaker 1: own blood with your plasma back into it. 112 00:05:15,447 --> 00:05:16,407 Speaker 3: And why does that make you look? 113 00:05:16,487 --> 00:05:18,807 Speaker 1: It's called a vampire facial?

In a viral 153 00:07:10,887 --> 00:07:14,127 Speaker 4: article published on Slate, she begins, I'm going to say 154 00:07:14,167 --> 00:07:16,927 Speaker 4: something that might sound a bit mean, but bear with me. 155 00:07:17,167 --> 00:07:21,567 Speaker 4: You've got me, You've got me. 156 00:07:22,367 --> 00:07:23,167 Speaker 3: Continue. 157 00:07:23,407 --> 00:07:26,007 Speaker 4: I don't think modern parents really want the village because 158 00:07:26,047 --> 00:07:30,167 Speaker 4: most parents don't behave in a villagey way. Her argument 159 00:07:30,367 --> 00:07:34,207 Speaker 4: is that educated people live farther away from their extended families, 160 00:07:34,207 --> 00:07:36,447 Speaker 4: so that's just a fact. In the US, especially if 161 00:07:36,487 --> 00:07:38,687 Speaker 4: you go to college or university, you move to the 162 00:07:38,687 --> 00:07:40,767 Speaker 4: other side of the country. And if you don't live 163 00:07:40,767 --> 00:07:43,247 Speaker 4: near family and you want a village, then you've got 164 00:07:43,287 --> 00:07:47,007 Speaker 4: to socialize with neighbors and friends. But for most, she says, 165 00:07:47,167 --> 00:07:50,887 Speaker 4: community is not a priority. She also says our standards 166 00:07:50,927 --> 00:07:53,807 Speaker 4: for caregivers are higher than ever. We don't want teens 167 00:07:53,807 --> 00:07:57,167 Speaker 4: to babysit our kids. We have rules for grandparents, sleepovers 168 00:07:57,167 --> 00:08:00,207 Speaker 4: are frowned upon, and a list of boundaries are circulated 169 00:08:00,247 --> 00:08:03,967 Speaker 4: in group chats. Really, Haber Harris argues, we don't want 170 00:08:03,967 --> 00:08:07,727 Speaker 4: a village. We want a free caretaker or cleaning crew 171 00:08:07,847 --> 00:08:11,487 Speaker 4: who does things exactly the way we wish. Holly, I'm 172 00:08:11,527 --> 00:08:13,847 Speaker 4: obsessed with this. I think it's so spot on. Do 173 00:08:13,967 --> 00:08:16,927 Speaker 4: you think we actually just want hired help who won't 174 00:08:16,967 --> 00:08:17,447 Speaker 4: speak to us? 175 00:08:17,487 --> 00:08:21,567 Speaker 2: One hundred percent? Yes, I do think that because my 176 00:08:21,687 --> 00:08:24,327 Speaker 2: personal situation, I didn't have a family village right when 177 00:08:24,367 --> 00:08:26,767 Speaker 2: I had my kids, because I live on the other 178 00:08:26,767 --> 00:08:28,967 Speaker 2: side of the world from my family, and so we 179 00:08:29,007 --> 00:08:31,287 Speaker 2: did build a village like we have friends you know 180 00:08:31,327 --> 00:08:32,887 Speaker 2: who live around where we used to live, who I 181 00:08:32,887 --> 00:08:35,087 Speaker 2: would consider my village. A lot of them are coming 182 00:08:35,087 --> 00:08:37,487 Speaker 2: to my house for Christmas. We're all in each other's lives, 183 00:08:37,487 --> 00:08:38,967 Speaker 2: we know the kids and all that kind of stuff. 184 00:08:39,487 --> 00:08:42,767 Speaker 2: There are limitations to that because you can't exploit them 185 00:08:42,807 --> 00:08:45,007 Speaker 2: in the way that you might your family members, for example, 186 00:08:45,047 --> 00:08:48,207 Speaker 2: and be like I insist mother that you'd stop working 187 00:08:48,247 --> 00:08:51,047 Speaker 2: on Thursdays and come and look after my child for free. 188 00:08:51,567 --> 00:08:54,327 Speaker 2: And there are also limitations because you can't if someone 189 00:08:54,367 --> 00:08:57,167 Speaker 2: is looking after your child for free, I do not 190 00:08:57,327 --> 00:08:59,567 Speaker 2: think it's okay to give them a massive I mean, 191 00:08:59,607 --> 00:09:02,967 Speaker 2: of course, with a baby, like they need instructions, baby 192 00:09:03,047 --> 00:09:06,247 Speaker 2: is allergic to dairy. Yeah, baby has sleep between this 193 00:09:06,247 --> 00:09:08,567 Speaker 2: time and this time, but a massive list of demands 194 00:09:08,567 --> 00:09:12,047 Speaker 2: and all those viral tiktoks that I see of millennial 195 00:09:12,127 --> 00:09:16,727 Speaker 2: mothers schooling the gen X grandmothers about the way they 196 00:09:16,807 --> 00:09:19,727 Speaker 2: raise their children, and they're very funny, but there's a 197 00:09:19,807 --> 00:09:22,287 Speaker 2: kernel of truth in that, which is like, no one 198 00:09:22,327 --> 00:09:25,767 Speaker 2: thinks that the previous generation parented correctly, and nobody thinks 199 00:09:25,807 --> 00:09:28,447 Speaker 2: they know what they're doing, and everybody thinks that their 200 00:09:28,487 --> 00:09:31,167 Speaker 2: baby and their child is a special little snowflake and 201 00:09:31,207 --> 00:09:33,607 Speaker 2: that nobody else understands how to look after them. And 202 00:09:33,607 --> 00:09:36,367 Speaker 2: obviously none of that is true, right. But the problem 203 00:09:36,447 --> 00:09:38,527 Speaker 2: with all the lists and the demands and the sharing 204 00:09:38,807 --> 00:09:41,287 Speaker 2: of boundaries and that you can't visit my baby for 205 00:09:41,327 --> 00:09:43,327 Speaker 2: three weeks and you have to do this, this, and 206 00:09:43,367 --> 00:09:45,607 Speaker 2: this is it puts everybody off, and it makes them defensive, 207 00:09:45,647 --> 00:09:50,127 Speaker 2: and it makes them scared, and it's an obsession with control, right. 208 00:09:50,367 --> 00:09:53,607 Speaker 2: I think it's an obsession with control. And it's understandable 209 00:09:53,767 --> 00:09:56,087 Speaker 2: because I think, you know, the stakes have been raised 210 00:09:56,087 --> 00:09:58,327 Speaker 2: by the constant vigilance of social media and all that 211 00:09:58,407 --> 00:10:00,687 Speaker 2: kind of stuff. The thing about a village is you 212 00:10:00,727 --> 00:10:03,887 Speaker 2: have to accept its messiness. You have to accept that 213 00:10:04,247 --> 00:10:06,327 Speaker 2: your auntie, who might whether this is a real anti 214 00:10:06,487 --> 00:10:08,047 Speaker 2: or friend of family as we say in the North 215 00:10:08,047 --> 00:10:10,167 Speaker 2: of English, is not real anti. His friend at family, 216 00:10:10,567 --> 00:10:13,127 Speaker 2: friend of the family. Auntie is going to give them 217 00:10:13,207 --> 00:10:16,207 Speaker 2: chocolate and is going to put them down an hour 218 00:10:16,287 --> 00:10:18,767 Speaker 2: later than you'd like, and he's going to whatever. Even 219 00:10:18,767 --> 00:10:21,007 Speaker 2: when I'm in Sydney and I look after my friend Penny's, 220 00:10:21,167 --> 00:10:22,487 Speaker 2: I don't look after them, but I've take them for a 221 00:10:22,487 --> 00:10:25,927 Speaker 2: walk whatever. I'm like it's my prerogative. I'm buying a milkshake. 222 00:10:26,127 --> 00:10:28,927 Speaker 2: You know that. That's what aunties do. That's what you're 223 00:10:28,927 --> 00:10:29,327 Speaker 2: there for. 224 00:10:29,407 --> 00:10:33,327 Speaker 4: Different, completely different if you are employed, if you are 225 00:10:33,367 --> 00:10:35,767 Speaker 4: being paid, and then there's like this is a job description. 226 00:10:36,127 --> 00:10:39,007 Speaker 4: What I don't understand is it's like the village is 227 00:10:39,047 --> 00:10:41,487 Speaker 4: meant to come in with all its messiness. Claire and 228 00:10:41,527 --> 00:10:43,767 Speaker 4: I did an episode of The Baby Bubble about the 229 00:10:43,847 --> 00:10:45,047 Speaker 4: village where we said the. 230 00:10:45,087 --> 00:10:48,447 Speaker 3: Village is annoying. The village is absolutely so annoying. 231 00:10:48,087 --> 00:10:52,607 Speaker 4: Because it's there are interpersonal relationships that come with its 232 00:10:52,687 --> 00:10:56,927 Speaker 4: own baggage. You've got to navigate that difficult conversation with blah. 233 00:10:57,047 --> 00:10:59,887 Speaker 4: Maybe you've got a situation where you want everyone to 234 00:10:59,887 --> 00:11:04,447 Speaker 4: get the hooping cough vaccine or whatever. Maybe you want 235 00:11:04,447 --> 00:11:07,527 Speaker 4: to have a conversation about how they're doing something like 236 00:11:08,287 --> 00:11:11,327 Speaker 4: That's hard to navigate and it requires a certain level 237 00:11:11,367 --> 00:11:13,727 Speaker 4: of skill that maybe a lot of us have lost. 238 00:11:13,887 --> 00:11:18,887 Speaker 4: And I think because we've become so boundaried and our 239 00:11:18,887 --> 00:11:22,287 Speaker 4: relationships have become very, very transactional, And I wonder if 240 00:11:22,287 --> 00:11:25,967 Speaker 4: this is a result of so much being on demand 241 00:11:26,167 --> 00:11:28,727 Speaker 4: that we don't know how to see relationships outside of 242 00:11:28,807 --> 00:11:34,527 Speaker 4: employee employer friendships. Family community is about a bit of 243 00:11:34,607 --> 00:11:35,167 Speaker 4: give and take. 244 00:11:35,367 --> 00:11:38,687 Speaker 1: It's just about tolerance. And it's interesting because now I'm 245 00:11:38,727 --> 00:11:42,047 Speaker 1: on the other side of it, where I am part 246 00:11:42,087 --> 00:11:44,847 Speaker 1: of the village. I'm part of your village, Jesse particularly, 247 00:11:45,407 --> 00:11:48,367 Speaker 1: And it's really funny because I think the key to 248 00:11:48,447 --> 00:11:52,487 Speaker 1: being in a village is to be very tolerant, to 249 00:11:52,567 --> 00:11:54,687 Speaker 1: not be too hung up on boundaries and I'll give 250 00:11:54,687 --> 00:11:57,607 Speaker 1: you an example, and to not take offense. So I 251 00:11:57,647 --> 00:12:00,327 Speaker 1: look after Luna on a Friday or you know, sometimes 252 00:12:00,327 --> 00:12:03,887 Speaker 1: on weekends whatever, and when I drop her back, because 253 00:12:03,887 --> 00:12:06,247 Speaker 1: I'm also happy to see Jesse and Luca, like I'm happy, 254 00:12:06,287 --> 00:12:07,607 Speaker 1: I want to come in, I want to talk about 255 00:12:07,607 --> 00:12:09,727 Speaker 1: how where day was. I want to see them. But 256 00:12:09,767 --> 00:12:12,087 Speaker 1: it's usually very clear that they want me to just 257 00:12:12,167 --> 00:12:15,327 Speaker 1: leave the baby, and they go very clear. 258 00:12:15,167 --> 00:12:17,007 Speaker 2: In what way, how do you make that clear? 259 00:12:18,647 --> 00:12:21,647 Speaker 1: I know Luca pretty well and he just kind of 260 00:12:22,047 --> 00:12:24,847 Speaker 1: makes it clear. But usually you do things like you 261 00:12:24,887 --> 00:12:28,327 Speaker 1: sit down, and then it's just clear that that's not ideal. 262 00:12:28,367 --> 00:12:30,047 Speaker 2: You're not being offered a couple of times. 263 00:12:29,807 --> 00:12:32,207 Speaker 1: Over but never it's never, Hey, do you want to 264 00:12:32,247 --> 00:12:33,887 Speaker 1: stay for a glass of wine? It's kind of like, 265 00:12:34,847 --> 00:12:37,247 Speaker 1: and I just don't, like I remember what that was 266 00:12:37,287 --> 00:12:41,167 Speaker 1: like myself, Like I loved my mother in law and 267 00:12:41,207 --> 00:12:44,127 Speaker 1: my mom and dad looking after my kids, but then 268 00:12:44,127 --> 00:12:46,207 Speaker 1: I didn't want to have a big catch up at 269 00:12:46,207 --> 00:12:49,127 Speaker 1: the end of each time because usually when I was 270 00:12:49,167 --> 00:12:52,207 Speaker 1: getting my kids back, I knew I was heading into 271 00:12:52,207 --> 00:12:54,007 Speaker 1: dinner time and bath time, and it was like I 272 00:12:54,087 --> 00:12:56,207 Speaker 1: was still on the clock in terms of parenting, or 273 00:12:56,247 --> 00:12:57,727 Speaker 1: I had just come back on the clock in terms 274 00:12:57,767 --> 00:13:01,087 Speaker 1: of parenting. So you just got to read the situation. 275 00:13:01,207 --> 00:13:01,327 Speaker 2: Now. 276 00:13:01,367 --> 00:13:04,127 Speaker 1: I could take offense to that, or I could The 277 00:13:04,207 --> 00:13:06,567 Speaker 1: least you could do is give you give your mother a. 278 00:13:06,527 --> 00:13:08,687 Speaker 2: Glass of wine after she'd be looking after your baby 279 00:13:08,727 --> 00:13:10,127 Speaker 2: for free. 280 00:13:09,527 --> 00:13:13,607 Speaker 1: You could you could kind of just get put out. 281 00:13:13,607 --> 00:13:16,247 Speaker 1: But it's like, I don't know. You just got to 282 00:13:16,487 --> 00:13:18,647 Speaker 1: go with the flow, And I think that you're right. 283 00:13:18,767 --> 00:13:23,407 Speaker 1: In our culture now, with text messages, it's about control, right, 284 00:13:23,887 --> 00:13:26,967 Speaker 1: and the village is messy because sometimes someone wants to 285 00:13:26,967 --> 00:13:28,367 Speaker 1: catch up with you and you don't really want to 286 00:13:28,367 --> 00:13:31,247 Speaker 1: catch up with them. And if if it's in text, 287 00:13:31,727 --> 00:13:34,167 Speaker 1: you can decide whether you reply when you reply, it's 288 00:13:34,207 --> 00:13:37,887 Speaker 1: all on your terms. But personal interactions, which is what 289 00:13:37,927 --> 00:13:42,007 Speaker 1: a village is is less controllable, and I just don't 290 00:13:42,047 --> 00:13:44,327 Speaker 1: think we can handle that. I don't think we're match 291 00:13:44,327 --> 00:13:45,407 Speaker 1: fit for that anymore. 292 00:13:45,527 --> 00:13:45,767 Speaker 2: Yeah. 293 00:13:45,927 --> 00:13:50,927 Speaker 4: We also because mothers and fathers are feeling this social 294 00:13:51,007 --> 00:13:53,407 Speaker 4: pressure to be a certain type of parent, I think 295 00:13:53,407 --> 00:13:55,727 Speaker 4: that we then project that onto anyone who is caring 296 00:13:55,767 --> 00:13:58,127 Speaker 4: for our kids. So it's like the pressure has to 297 00:13:58,167 --> 00:14:01,247 Speaker 4: go somewhere. Same as if you've had a really hard 298 00:14:01,327 --> 00:14:03,207 Speaker 4: day at work and you're getting yelled at from a 299 00:14:03,207 --> 00:14:05,207 Speaker 4: boss and then you come home and you end up 300 00:14:05,247 --> 00:14:05,727 Speaker 4: yelling at. 301 00:14:05,607 --> 00:14:06,287 Speaker 3: Your kids or whatever. 302 00:14:06,327 --> 00:14:10,087 Speaker 4: It's like that then gets passed on whoever is looking 303 00:14:10,167 --> 00:14:11,047 Speaker 4: after the child. 304 00:14:11,247 --> 00:14:13,767 Speaker 1: Just is it also a fear that you know they've 305 00:14:13,807 --> 00:14:17,967 Speaker 1: said the American Medical Association has sort of said intensive 306 00:14:18,007 --> 00:14:20,247 Speaker 1: parenting is bad for kids, but it also is not 307 00:14:20,287 --> 00:14:23,607 Speaker 1: sustainable for parents. This level of parenting is not healthy, 308 00:14:23,647 --> 00:14:26,727 Speaker 1: it's not good for them. Is there also the sense 309 00:14:26,807 --> 00:14:30,407 Speaker 1: that there's so much pressure on how you parent that 310 00:14:30,687 --> 00:14:33,887 Speaker 1: anyone who comes into contact with your child by extension 311 00:14:33,967 --> 00:14:36,647 Speaker 1: has to parent at that same level. Because I did 312 00:14:36,647 --> 00:14:38,767 Speaker 1: think that when my kids were younger, and that every 313 00:14:38,807 --> 00:14:41,007 Speaker 1: rule I have there has to be consistency, because my 314 00:14:41,087 --> 00:14:43,767 Speaker 1: kids were at lots of different places. And then someone 315 00:14:43,807 --> 00:14:45,887 Speaker 1: said to me, kids are smart. They work out that 316 00:14:45,887 --> 00:14:47,807 Speaker 1: there's one set of rule at grandma's house, one set 317 00:14:47,847 --> 00:14:49,447 Speaker 1: of rules when they're with dad, one set of rules 318 00:14:49,447 --> 00:14:51,967 Speaker 1: when they're with Mum. They work it out and they 319 00:14:51,967 --> 00:14:56,207 Speaker 1: adapt and they manipulate. And so that was really helpful 320 00:14:56,247 --> 00:14:58,687 Speaker 1: to me, because then I stopped. I was still really 321 00:14:58,767 --> 00:15:01,167 Speaker 1: hung up on don't feed them this and don't feed 322 00:15:01,167 --> 00:15:03,887 Speaker 1: them that, because also it meant that I never got 323 00:15:03,887 --> 00:15:05,207 Speaker 1: to be the one that gave them the treat. I 324 00:15:05,287 --> 00:15:07,207 Speaker 1: was like, everyone else gives them the treat, and I 325 00:15:07,287 --> 00:15:09,007 Speaker 1: have to be the asshole that just says that you've 326 00:15:09,047 --> 00:15:11,487 Speaker 1: vege stables all the time. Yeah, I don't know. 327 00:15:12,167 --> 00:15:13,527 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's very true. 328 00:15:13,567 --> 00:15:16,807 Speaker 4: I do think that sometimes that it's like, oh, yeah, 329 00:15:17,047 --> 00:15:18,927 Speaker 4: Mum gets to give her the treat, and then I'm like, 330 00:15:19,367 --> 00:15:21,247 Speaker 4: I've got to be the one that's kind of the 331 00:15:21,287 --> 00:15:21,807 Speaker 4: bad guy. 332 00:15:21,887 --> 00:15:23,727 Speaker 1: Well, I get to give her the baked beans. And 333 00:15:23,767 --> 00:15:25,647 Speaker 1: then I come home and I said, oh, we had 334 00:15:25,687 --> 00:15:27,447 Speaker 1: baked beans for lunch, and then Lucal will be like, 335 00:15:28,287 --> 00:15:31,007 Speaker 1: oh gosh, we haven't had baked beans for months and 336 00:15:31,047 --> 00:15:31,887 Speaker 1: except for last week. 337 00:15:33,447 --> 00:15:35,567 Speaker 4: I reckon there are two things at play The first 338 00:15:35,647 --> 00:15:41,607 Speaker 4: thing is being completely overrun with information, which. 339 00:15:41,407 --> 00:15:42,927 Speaker 1: Is which grand parents aren't. 340 00:15:43,127 --> 00:15:48,567 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true, from routine to naps, to gentle parent parenting, 341 00:15:48,887 --> 00:15:50,727 Speaker 4: to all the things that you need to do, to 342 00:15:50,807 --> 00:15:54,447 Speaker 4: all the messaging I'm getting about nutrition and stimulation and 343 00:15:54,487 --> 00:15:56,327 Speaker 4: reading and blah blah blah. So it feels like I 344 00:15:56,327 --> 00:15:58,287 Speaker 4: have a checklist of all the things I've got to 345 00:15:58,327 --> 00:16:01,327 Speaker 4: do for that child and then make sure they're getting done. 346 00:16:01,567 --> 00:16:05,007 Speaker 4: There's the guilt, which I wonder. I mean, I'm sure 347 00:16:05,007 --> 00:16:06,847 Speaker 4: that that's always existed to some extent. 348 00:16:07,327 --> 00:16:07,727 Speaker 1: Control. 349 00:16:08,167 --> 00:16:10,127 Speaker 4: That's the third thing I was going to say is 350 00:16:10,167 --> 00:16:12,247 Speaker 4: the control element. And we're talking about this on the 351 00:16:12,247 --> 00:16:14,567 Speaker 4: show recently, that you know, I don't leave the house 352 00:16:14,607 --> 00:16:17,487 Speaker 4: without knowing what the weather's going to be, I know 353 00:16:17,527 --> 00:16:20,087 Speaker 4: where my husband is at all times. There is so 354 00:16:20,407 --> 00:16:24,647 Speaker 4: much control over everything that to then go, I Am 355 00:16:24,727 --> 00:16:28,687 Speaker 4: going to leave the most precious personal people in the 356 00:16:28,727 --> 00:16:31,287 Speaker 4: care of someone else and not be able to control 357 00:16:31,327 --> 00:16:34,647 Speaker 4: every minute. I think that is really really important. And 358 00:16:34,687 --> 00:16:37,687 Speaker 4: this is I think early educators must deal with this 359 00:16:38,007 --> 00:16:40,047 Speaker 4: because they get it from parents a lot. 360 00:16:40,047 --> 00:16:42,207 Speaker 1: And now they have to report on everything, and there's 361 00:16:42,287 --> 00:16:44,807 Speaker 1: cams and you have to you know, even in the 362 00:16:45,207 --> 00:16:48,207 Speaker 1: years between my kids going to preschool, you know, by 363 00:16:48,247 --> 00:16:50,247 Speaker 1: the last one that went, there'd be a whole big 364 00:16:50,247 --> 00:16:52,207 Speaker 1: report about what the whole day was. 365 00:16:52,207 --> 00:16:55,007 Speaker 4: And it's like their whole job's become reporting rather than 366 00:16:55,047 --> 00:16:58,047 Speaker 4: actually spending time in the contents. And when you realize 367 00:16:58,167 --> 00:17:00,767 Speaker 4: I had to learn this because it wasn't instinctual. I 368 00:17:00,807 --> 00:17:03,327 Speaker 4: don't think that people around you are going to know 369 00:17:03,567 --> 00:17:06,607 Speaker 4: things about babies or your baby that you don't know yet. 370 00:17:06,647 --> 00:17:08,327 Speaker 4: And that's one of the greatest joys is to see 371 00:17:08,327 --> 00:17:09,887 Speaker 4: that they bring something out of they teach them a 372 00:17:09,887 --> 00:17:12,207 Speaker 4: new skill or they find a new hobby by spending 373 00:17:12,247 --> 00:17:15,207 Speaker 4: time with other people. That the bedtime doesn't really matter, 374 00:17:15,247 --> 00:17:17,047 Speaker 4: that the hot ships don't really matter. That guess what, 375 00:17:17,167 --> 00:17:18,567 Speaker 4: there's going to be an iPad and there's going to 376 00:17:18,607 --> 00:17:20,127 Speaker 4: be a screen, and there's going to be blood. Like 377 00:17:20,167 --> 00:17:22,967 Speaker 4: it's just going to happen and it's the chaos of childhood. 378 00:17:23,087 --> 00:17:25,527 Speaker 4: But what they get out of spending time with all 379 00:17:25,527 --> 00:17:28,567 Speaker 4: those different people is totally worth it. But you do 380 00:17:28,647 --> 00:17:31,207 Speaker 4: have to invest in it. And maybe that's a problem 381 00:17:31,207 --> 00:17:33,087 Speaker 4: that a lot of a lot of us have. I 382 00:17:33,127 --> 00:17:37,327 Speaker 4: feel this is that I'm not investing in the village enough, like, 383 00:17:37,727 --> 00:17:40,607 Speaker 4: because those relationships don't just it's not just the handover. 384 00:17:41,327 --> 00:17:43,887 Speaker 4: Are you communicating properly with all of those people in 385 00:17:43,927 --> 00:17:47,287 Speaker 4: there in your life so that the relationships are really 386 00:17:47,327 --> 00:17:48,167 Speaker 4: healthy and steady. 387 00:17:48,367 --> 00:17:50,247 Speaker 2: I think that's one hundred percent true, because I think 388 00:17:50,287 --> 00:17:52,887 Speaker 2: everybody's busy and burnt out, or we certainly see ourselves 389 00:17:52,927 --> 00:17:55,807 Speaker 2: that way, and so often when it comes to your 390 00:17:55,847 --> 00:17:58,607 Speaker 2: downtime verticomas, you're like, oh, well, I could go out 391 00:17:58,647 --> 00:18:01,687 Speaker 2: and be making connections in my village, but really I 392 00:18:01,767 --> 00:18:04,927 Speaker 2: just want to retreat to my little world. But the 393 00:18:05,007 --> 00:18:06,807 Speaker 2: other piece to this, I think is fear. Like as 394 00:18:06,807 --> 00:18:11,407 Speaker 2: your kids get older, different pairing styles and inverted commas become. 395 00:18:12,047 --> 00:18:14,407 Speaker 2: Like the steaks shift. So say the kids that my 396 00:18:14,487 --> 00:18:17,127 Speaker 2: age are at the different houses that they'll shed like 397 00:18:17,247 --> 00:18:19,567 Speaker 2: people have different screen rules, they eat junk food, they 398 00:18:19,607 --> 00:18:21,087 Speaker 2: don't eat junk food. Will they let them have their 399 00:18:21,087 --> 00:18:23,647 Speaker 2: phones in their room overnight? Well, they don't, blah blah. 400 00:18:23,727 --> 00:18:26,207 Speaker 2: And the thing is is, I've always had a relatively 401 00:18:26,247 --> 00:18:27,847 Speaker 2: laid back view that I think that when you're at 402 00:18:27,847 --> 00:18:29,647 Speaker 2: somebody's house, you lived by the rules, and that's that. 403 00:18:30,247 --> 00:18:33,367 Speaker 2: But we live in a very sort of fear informed world. Now, 404 00:18:33,367 --> 00:18:34,967 Speaker 2: we were like, but that could be the house and 405 00:18:35,007 --> 00:18:38,207 Speaker 2: I don't I'm not talking about really serious things like abuse, 406 00:18:38,287 --> 00:18:41,487 Speaker 2: of course, because of course, but it could be my 407 00:18:41,647 --> 00:18:44,847 Speaker 2: house where the kids sees something inappropriate online and then 408 00:18:44,887 --> 00:18:46,767 Speaker 2: I'm going to get the call from the parent that 409 00:18:46,887 --> 00:18:49,727 Speaker 2: says bloody, bloody Blair and then they'll be whispering about 410 00:18:49,727 --> 00:18:51,487 Speaker 2: me in the WhatsApp groups. And you know what I mean, 411 00:18:51,567 --> 00:18:54,567 Speaker 2: like the level of surveillance I think that we've put 412 00:18:54,567 --> 00:18:57,367 Speaker 2: in place in parent world. If you think about parental 413 00:18:57,367 --> 00:18:59,487 Speaker 2: WhatsApp groups, which will become a very big part of 414 00:18:59,527 --> 00:19:01,567 Speaker 2: your life, Jesse as the kids get older, whether it's 415 00:19:01,607 --> 00:19:07,127 Speaker 2: a sports team, school, preschool, whatever. In theory, that's a village. 416 00:19:07,567 --> 00:19:10,087 Speaker 2: Like in theory it is, and it's sometimes absolutely works 417 00:19:10,127 --> 00:19:11,847 Speaker 2: like that. I've got one of my wonderful friends who 418 00:19:11,887 --> 00:19:14,647 Speaker 2: will be the person who says, Holly, it's mufty day 419 00:19:14,647 --> 00:19:16,807 Speaker 2: because she knows I will forget right. That's a wonderful 420 00:19:16,807 --> 00:19:19,207 Speaker 2: example of the village. But the flip side of the 421 00:19:19,287 --> 00:19:22,527 Speaker 2: village is knowing that there's a whole group of people 422 00:19:22,967 --> 00:19:26,127 Speaker 2: chitty chatting all the time about all this stuff and 423 00:19:26,207 --> 00:19:28,447 Speaker 2: somebody's bound to be doing it wrong. You know so 424 00:19:28,567 --> 00:19:30,847 Speaker 2: and so sent their kids to school with knits. Have 425 00:19:30,967 --> 00:19:33,527 Speaker 2: you noticed that such and such as tops never clean, 426 00:19:33,967 --> 00:19:36,447 Speaker 2: like that person never turns up to dance practice. 427 00:19:36,487 --> 00:19:37,687 Speaker 3: That's what a village does. 428 00:19:37,767 --> 00:19:41,127 Speaker 2: And the village gossips, right, And the village has always gossiped, 429 00:19:41,567 --> 00:19:43,647 Speaker 2: but now the gossip in a kind of way that 430 00:19:43,727 --> 00:19:46,327 Speaker 2: you can see well, that you can find out. 431 00:19:46,127 --> 00:19:48,327 Speaker 3: About, which is all You've got this level of fear. 432 00:19:48,807 --> 00:19:50,287 Speaker 2: Were not wanting to be cast out of. 433 00:19:50,207 --> 00:19:52,247 Speaker 4: It, which is also what social media has done because 434 00:19:52,287 --> 00:19:55,727 Speaker 4: mums need to vent, so they've terrified other members of 435 00:19:55,847 --> 00:19:57,887 Speaker 4: the village. And they've also terrified other mums in a 436 00:19:57,887 --> 00:19:59,847 Speaker 4: lot of ways because you go, oh my goodness, I'm 437 00:19:59,887 --> 00:20:03,887 Speaker 4: that person, or there's the rules about not kissing the baby, 438 00:20:04,007 --> 00:20:07,727 Speaker 4: or you know, the mother giving unsolicited advice or whatever 439 00:20:07,767 --> 00:20:08,047 Speaker 4: it is. 440 00:20:08,247 --> 00:20:09,687 Speaker 3: I think it's just shit we have to except. 441 00:20:09,727 --> 00:20:11,687 Speaker 1: But also, I just want to bring it back to 442 00:20:11,727 --> 00:20:15,127 Speaker 1: the village. It's not just Villages aren't just about kids. 443 00:20:15,567 --> 00:20:19,807 Speaker 1: Villages are also about workplaces. They're about extended families, the 444 00:20:19,847 --> 00:20:22,927 Speaker 1: family you were born into. And it can be really 445 00:20:22,967 --> 00:20:25,127 Speaker 1: lovely to realize that you're a part of a village. 446 00:20:25,167 --> 00:20:27,407 Speaker 1: You didn't know you were part of. Ole spoke about 447 00:20:27,407 --> 00:20:31,287 Speaker 1: our friend Lucy, who has breast cancer and she had 448 00:20:31,327 --> 00:20:34,247 Speaker 1: an operation this week, and there is a WhatsApp group 449 00:20:34,247 --> 00:20:36,687 Speaker 1: because she had all these different people messaging in her 450 00:20:36,767 --> 00:20:39,967 Speaker 1: and every time there's a major update, she sends a 451 00:20:40,007 --> 00:20:42,807 Speaker 1: message to this what's called the Big Friend group. And 452 00:20:42,847 --> 00:20:45,527 Speaker 1: I hope she doesn't mind me saying this, but what 453 00:20:45,647 --> 00:20:48,207 Speaker 1: was lovely this week is all these women that I 454 00:20:48,287 --> 00:20:50,167 Speaker 1: don't know. Some of them I do know, like Hollies 455 00:20:50,207 --> 00:20:52,607 Speaker 1: in there. You know, our friend Mon's is in there, 456 00:20:53,047 --> 00:20:55,207 Speaker 1: But there were stacks of women in there that I 457 00:20:55,287 --> 00:20:59,087 Speaker 1: don't know. But we're all united, including Lucy's mother, by 458 00:20:59,127 --> 00:21:02,167 Speaker 1: our love for Lucy and our concern for Lucy. And 459 00:21:02,207 --> 00:21:05,047 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I know some people say, oh, 460 00:21:05,087 --> 00:21:07,447 Speaker 1: I'm not part of a village, but sometimes you might 461 00:21:08,047 --> 00:21:09,967 Speaker 1: be a part of a village but you don't even 462 00:21:10,007 --> 00:21:11,487 Speaker 1: know about. Like if you think about when you go 463 00:21:11,487 --> 00:21:15,007 Speaker 1: to a wedding, for example, or in a sad case 464 00:21:15,047 --> 00:21:17,847 Speaker 1: of a funeral, it's like you're part of that person's village, 465 00:21:18,207 --> 00:21:21,007 Speaker 1: even if you don't necessarily know all the other people 466 00:21:21,047 --> 00:21:21,287 Speaker 1: in it. 467 00:21:21,447 --> 00:21:24,207 Speaker 4: This is an argument that I have with Lucer all 468 00:21:24,247 --> 00:21:29,887 Speaker 4: the time, is about how necessary inconvenience is to connections 469 00:21:29,927 --> 00:21:33,487 Speaker 4: and to relationships. So sometimes if you're going to be 470 00:21:33,527 --> 00:21:35,567 Speaker 4: part of a village where shit hits a fan and 471 00:21:35,607 --> 00:21:37,007 Speaker 4: you've got to go and drop your kids off at 472 00:21:37,007 --> 00:21:39,327 Speaker 4: someone's house, guess what, You've got to be the kind 473 00:21:39,327 --> 00:21:41,847 Speaker 4: of person who has your door open for when their 474 00:21:41,927 --> 00:21:44,327 Speaker 4: shit hits a fan and they can come to your 475 00:21:44,407 --> 00:21:46,767 Speaker 4: like that's how it works. The other thing I found 476 00:21:46,767 --> 00:21:50,247 Speaker 4: interesting in this article actually was she was saying the 477 00:21:50,287 --> 00:21:54,087 Speaker 4: tendency now that when there's say a long weekend, maybe 478 00:21:54,127 --> 00:21:56,487 Speaker 4: it's because we like to be efficient, or maybe it's 479 00:21:56,487 --> 00:21:59,407 Speaker 4: back to the control piece. When we have a long weekend, 480 00:21:59,447 --> 00:22:01,407 Speaker 4: what we want to do is close all our doors 481 00:22:01,407 --> 00:22:03,487 Speaker 4: and spend time with our nuclear family. So people go 482 00:22:03,567 --> 00:22:06,767 Speaker 4: out of town or go on holiday, which even now 483 00:22:07,247 --> 00:22:09,367 Speaker 4: school holidays are coming up, a lot of people will 484 00:22:09,367 --> 00:22:12,007 Speaker 4: have a trip planned and it'll be their immediate family 485 00:22:12,087 --> 00:22:14,767 Speaker 4: are going away. And then I hear parents say that 486 00:22:14,927 --> 00:22:17,687 Speaker 4: was really really hard, and it's like, of course it's hard. 487 00:22:17,767 --> 00:22:21,327 Speaker 4: Of course, that's hard to be just you guys.

I've got a really sad worst this week. 715 00:32:48,487 --> 00:32:52,687 Speaker 1: I went to a memorial for a new friend who 716 00:32:53,127 --> 00:32:56,447 Speaker 1: died in an accident on her farm a few weeks ago. 717 00:32:56,847 --> 00:33:01,167 Speaker 1: Her name was Lisa Ronson. She was the CMO of Medibank. 718 00:33:01,327 --> 00:33:04,967 Speaker 1: She'd also worked at in marketing for Cole's and David 719 00:33:05,047 --> 00:33:07,367 Speaker 1: Jones and Beza, and she'd done these and the most 720 00:33:07,367 --> 00:33:11,927 Speaker 1: incredible things Westpac. And I met her because we've been 721 00:33:11,967 --> 00:33:15,167 Speaker 1: doing some work with Medibank, and I did a sometimes 722 00:33:15,167 --> 00:33:17,927 Speaker 1: I go in and will do like a mock no filter, 723 00:33:18,047 --> 00:33:20,567 Speaker 1: like an in conversation with her, where you know, I 724 00:33:20,607 --> 00:33:22,487 Speaker 1: sort of get to know these people a little bit better. 725 00:33:22,887 --> 00:33:26,887 Speaker 1: And I did that about four weeks ago, and we 726 00:33:27,047 --> 00:33:29,127 Speaker 1: just kind of hit it off. She's the most amazing 727 00:33:29,167 --> 00:33:32,167 Speaker 1: woman with the same age, and you know, she was 728 00:33:32,207 --> 00:33:34,727 Speaker 1: talking about this farm that she has at Dalesford that 729 00:33:34,767 --> 00:33:37,967 Speaker 1: she loves. She and her husband had sort of restored it. 730 00:33:38,087 --> 00:33:42,447 Speaker 1: And she was originally from Sydney and she had a son, Corben, 731 00:33:42,487 --> 00:33:45,327 Speaker 1: who's like twenty two or twenty three. It just was 732 00:33:45,407 --> 00:33:48,807 Speaker 1: like a really amazing conversation and I just we just clicked. 733 00:33:49,007 --> 00:33:52,527 Speaker 1: And she died very suddenly a few weeks ago, and 734 00:33:52,607 --> 00:33:57,047 Speaker 1: I went to the memorial services one at her farm 735 00:33:57,087 --> 00:33:59,687 Speaker 1: in Victoria, and then there was one in Sydney this week. 736 00:33:59,727 --> 00:34:02,927 Speaker 1: And back to that thing of being part of a village, 737 00:34:02,967 --> 00:34:05,687 Speaker 1: Like I didn't know her barely at all, and there 738 00:34:05,687 --> 00:34:08,647 Speaker 1: were people who obviously knew her incredibly well. And what 739 00:34:08,647 --> 00:34:10,247 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe I would have been about was the 740 00:34:10,327 --> 00:34:12,047 Speaker 1: cricket ground. There would have been about five or six 741 00:34:12,127 --> 00:34:16,487 Speaker 1: hundred people there. And what struck me about those things 742 00:34:16,607 --> 00:34:20,367 Speaker 1: and funerals are always it was a memorial service, but 743 00:34:20,527 --> 00:34:23,567 Speaker 1: they're always like happy and sad, and you really get 744 00:34:23,567 --> 00:34:26,967 Speaker 1: to know someone through the people who speak about them 745 00:34:27,167 --> 00:34:30,927 Speaker 1: and the slide shows. And she grew up in Parramatta. 746 00:34:30,927 --> 00:34:33,527 Speaker 1: Her high school friend, best friend sort of said these 747 00:34:33,567 --> 00:34:37,087 Speaker 1: amazing things about how she was always just so ambitious 748 00:34:37,127 --> 00:34:39,967 Speaker 1: and what struck me so many people spoke about her, 749 00:34:40,527 --> 00:34:42,727 Speaker 1: and she had so many male friends, like she was 750 00:34:42,807 --> 00:34:45,247 Speaker 1: absolutely a woman's woman. She had this really close group 751 00:34:45,287 --> 00:34:48,007 Speaker 1: of girlfriends, but she was also friends with a lot 752 00:34:48,007 --> 00:34:54,007 Speaker 1: of really interesting, successful, dynamic men who all said she 753 00:34:54,247 --> 00:34:57,327 Speaker 1: was one of my closest friends. And she was just 754 00:34:57,407 --> 00:35:01,447 Speaker 1: so much larger than life. She was so beautiful. It's 755 00:35:01,527 --> 00:35:03,167 Speaker 1: just such a tragedy. It's one of those things that 756 00:35:03,247 --> 00:35:08,007 Speaker 1: makes you think, like why, yeah, the shock of it anyway, 757 00:35:08,207 --> 00:35:10,527 Speaker 1: my heart goes out to her husband Chris, and her 758 00:35:10,607 --> 00:35:13,687 Speaker 1: son Ben, and her family and everybody who knew and 759 00:35:13,727 --> 00:35:17,887 Speaker 1: loved her. So that was my worst. My best is 760 00:35:17,967 --> 00:35:21,007 Speaker 1: just so trivial. I had to give a speech last 761 00:35:21,007 --> 00:35:24,807 Speaker 1: week at my daughter's old high school, and it really 762 00:35:24,847 --> 00:35:26,767 Speaker 1: sort of weighed on me and trying to get that right. 763 00:35:26,847 --> 00:35:28,687 Speaker 1: And I'd forgotten I hadn't been on one of those 764 00:35:28,767 --> 00:35:31,287 Speaker 1: long deadlines for a really long time, probably since i'd 765 00:35:31,327 --> 00:35:34,047 Speaker 1: written a book. Our life and my work tends to 766 00:35:34,047 --> 00:35:38,127 Speaker 1: happen on much shorter increments, and I'd forgotten the absolute 767 00:35:38,247 --> 00:35:42,407 Speaker 1: relief of not being on deadline anymore, having completed something 768 00:35:42,447 --> 00:35:44,607 Speaker 1: that's hanging over your head for a really long time. 769 00:35:44,647 --> 00:35:46,287 Speaker 1: And because I've not, of course I've known about that. 770 00:35:46,327 --> 00:35:48,607 Speaker 1: I had to give this speech for months, and of 771 00:35:48,647 --> 00:35:50,967 Speaker 1: course I left it to the last weekend, and then 772 00:35:51,007 --> 00:35:52,647 Speaker 1: it wasn't working and I had to rewrite it and 773 00:35:52,647 --> 00:35:55,087 Speaker 1: rewrite it and rewrite it, and the panic. But it's 774 00:35:55,167 --> 00:35:57,007 Speaker 1: all of the months that I had that I knew 775 00:35:57,007 --> 00:35:59,487 Speaker 1: I should be writing it, that I wasn't, that I 776 00:35:59,487 --> 00:36:02,487 Speaker 1: felt guilty that I wasn't. Yeah, And it's like the 777 00:36:02,567 --> 00:36:04,567 Speaker 1: relief of just not having that guilt. 778 00:36:04,607 --> 00:36:06,407 Speaker 4: Do you feel like it's got to be six months 779 00:36:06,487 --> 00:36:09,847 Speaker 4: worth of goodness, when really, you know, it's better if 780 00:36:09,887 --> 00:36:11,007 Speaker 4: they give it to you on a Friday and it's 781 00:36:11,047 --> 00:36:12,407 Speaker 4: due Monday, because then you're like, I only have the 782 00:36:12,407 --> 00:36:13,247 Speaker 4: pressure of a weekend. 783 00:36:13,367 --> 00:36:17,207 Speaker 1: Because they say that creativity is about your creative thing, 784 00:36:17,287 --> 00:36:19,487 Speaker 1: but it's within a time frame. Yeah, because otherwise you'd 785 00:36:19,527 --> 00:36:21,647 Speaker 1: never hadn't done anything, you could just work on it forever. 786 00:36:21,727 --> 00:36:25,167 Speaker 1: More So, Yeah, I'm just relieved that that's behind me 787 00:36:25,887 --> 00:36:27,247 Speaker 1: my worst. 788 00:36:27,567 --> 00:36:30,087 Speaker 4: The other day, I was showing Luca pictures on my 789 00:36:30,167 --> 00:36:33,367 Speaker 4: phone of Luna just doing silly things, and he saw 790 00:36:33,527 --> 00:36:35,927 Speaker 4: all these like really blurry photos and he went, what 791 00:36:35,927 --> 00:36:37,527 Speaker 4: are they of? And I said, oh, that's from when 792 00:36:37,527 --> 00:36:39,087 Speaker 4: I was at the playground and the kids took my 793 00:36:39,127 --> 00:36:43,567 Speaker 4: phone and he said what and I said kids. He 794 00:36:43,687 --> 00:36:45,767 Speaker 4: said what kids? And I said, well, they like because 795 00:36:45,767 --> 00:36:49,087 Speaker 4: on the back of my phone is a sticky thing 796 00:36:49,127 --> 00:36:51,647 Speaker 4: that you can stick to with little suck, with little suctions, 797 00:36:51,687 --> 00:36:53,647 Speaker 4: and the kids at the park love my phone and 798 00:36:53,687 --> 00:36:55,647 Speaker 4: they I have realized just. 799 00:36:55,607 --> 00:36:56,447 Speaker 2: Other people's kids. 800 00:36:56,887 --> 00:36:58,727 Speaker 4: I don't know how to say no to other people's children, 801 00:36:58,807 --> 00:37:00,807 Speaker 4: so I'm being bullied in parks. And I had to 802 00:37:01,407 --> 00:37:04,447 Speaker 4: admit to Luca that I get stuck in conversations with 803 00:37:04,447 --> 00:37:07,287 Speaker 4: four year olds.

Name place, I've been there. This is the 859 00:39:04,927 --> 00:39:06,687 Speaker 4: most beautiful place I've ever been to in Australia. 860 00:39:06,727 --> 00:39:09,007 Speaker 2: It's because, Lord, how island is I been? 861 00:39:10,047 --> 00:39:13,327 Speaker 4: I can't even I've done Great Berry Reef, I've done Anti, 862 00:39:13,447 --> 00:39:15,887 Speaker 4: I've done everywhere. So he lives right on a place 863 00:39:15,927 --> 00:39:18,807 Speaker 4: called Smith's Beach, And when we walked down onto Smith's Speech, 864 00:39:18,847 --> 00:39:20,727 Speaker 4: we went, this is the most beautiful beach I've been to. 865 00:39:21,087 --> 00:39:26,447 Speaker 4: The whitest sand, white blue, clear visibility water, totally empty. 866 00:39:26,647 --> 00:39:29,327 Speaker 4: But it's quite bushland as well, like it's on and 867 00:39:29,407 --> 00:39:30,927 Speaker 4: on the Airbnb we're staying. At the end of our 868 00:39:30,927 --> 00:39:33,567 Speaker 4: street were kangaroos. There were just all these kangaroos that 869 00:39:33,567 --> 00:39:34,807 Speaker 4: we went and visited every morning. 870 00:39:34,927 --> 00:39:35,727 Speaker 2: Do you like nature? 871 00:39:36,007 --> 00:39:38,807 Speaker 4: I like beaches. I really really like, actually like beach. 872 00:39:39,007 --> 00:39:41,247 Speaker 4: But then what was so brilliant about this place? Not 873 00:39:41,287 --> 00:39:43,727 Speaker 4: only that it's got the fanciest restaurants, so it's not 874 00:39:43,727 --> 00:39:46,447 Speaker 4: like here in the middle of nowhere called so we 875 00:39:46,527 --> 00:39:48,767 Speaker 4: stayed in a place called Dunsborough. And the reason why 876 00:39:48,807 --> 00:39:50,687 Speaker 4: we went as well is because for the first time 877 00:39:51,007 --> 00:39:54,047 Speaker 4: they have done a direct flight from Sydney to Bustleton. 878 00:39:54,527 --> 00:39:56,687 Speaker 3: What I was worried about before was I'd got a perfle. 879 00:39:58,527 --> 00:40:01,207 Speaker 4: But now does this direct thing and it's just opened 880 00:40:01,287 --> 00:40:05,207 Speaker 4: up this whole area of WA. Ran into so many 881 00:40:05,207 --> 00:40:08,847 Speaker 4: out louders, most of whom I'm in Dunsborough, I would say, 882 00:40:09,487 --> 00:40:10,207 Speaker 4: have you seen a park? 883 00:40:10,247 --> 00:40:11,167 Speaker 3: Because they had little kids. 884 00:40:11,167 --> 00:40:14,247 Speaker 2: When I was like, when you're on holiday with little kids, 885 00:40:14,247 --> 00:40:15,567 Speaker 2: it's just all about where's the post. 886 00:40:15,767 --> 00:40:19,287 Speaker 3: Yeah.
