Speaker 1: Out of the Gate with Maddy McLean, Chris Henry and
Speaker 1: Brad Christensen Jeer. It's so nice to be all met together.
Speaker 1: It feels like an age. It's two weeks, but it
Speaker 1: feels like an absolute age.
Speaker 2: We took a purpose we had a purposeful week, and
Speaker 2: then we had an accident a week and that's okay.
Speaker 1: Life happens. It's true Out the Gate style really isn't
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, we have to one week, and then
Speaker 1: the second week comes around, We're like, oh, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I was a Jurassic Park when your message I was
Speaker 1: addressing you were, I knew.
Speaker 2: I did know you were going to be away last week,
Speaker 2: and then life just happened to me and Brad and
Speaker 2: we just couldn't pull it pull it together.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm really thankful because it's, as you know,
Speaker 3: it's just everyone's got really busy live. So really grateful
Speaker 3: for our listeners being patient. But we are back this week,
Speaker 3: and I note that we are a month ahead of
Speaker 3: ourselves in our doc Monday.
Speaker 4: The fourteenth of November. We're very very hopeful.
Speaker 1: Do you think we should just the ultimate where we
Speaker 1: just sort of keep this and then on the forty that. Remember,
Speaker 1: we just come back in and just do it again.
Speaker 1: Anyone notice this.
Speaker 4: That wouldn't be like us to rehash anything.
Speaker 2: Either do it again and then just see, like see
Speaker 2: whether our opinions have changed on stuff, or if we have,
Speaker 2: we might have a different take on something.
Speaker 1: You know, absolutely absolutely absolutely my yeah. But it's lovely
Speaker 1: a bit together, Maddie. How are you?
Speaker 2: I'm very well, I will say. One of our gators
Speaker 2: did message and said, boys, I thought it was just
Speaker 2: a week off, And I thought to myself, do you
Speaker 2: know us at all?
Speaker 1: Why are you? Why are you at all surprised that
Speaker 1: we might just disappear for an extra week. But it
Speaker 1: was quite good at it because we just have a
Speaker 1: week off and then we another week off. But we
Speaker 1: would write no comments about it. It's just like at all,
Speaker 1: well if it, if it didn't happen, people just refreshing
Speaker 1: their feeds hoping maybe that will come back. No, it's
Speaker 1: like if a tree falls, a tree falls in the
Speaker 1: wood woods and no one's around to see it, you know,
Speaker 1: if we don't record a podcast and no one's here
Speaker 1: to hear no one's here to hear it. Yeah, did
Speaker 1: we ever record? Did we ever record? A podcast.
Speaker 3: No one to try and record a podcast, record it
Speaker 3: a whole episode and it's gone to the ether. That
Speaker 3: one hurt actually because we know it was bloody gold.
Speaker 4: It was.
Speaker 3: It was probably podcast award worthy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we ever entered the podcasts.
Speaker 2: I honestly think from memory and maybe my memory is hazy,
Speaker 2: I feel like we got off the podcast and we
Speaker 2: slow clapped ourselves out of the house that day.
Speaker 3: That was That was big Dick energy with us. We
Speaker 3: new Zealand's top media podcasting free ut.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then we forgot to No, it wasn't our
Speaker 2: fault or was that one our fault?
Speaker 1: No? I think it just didn't recaord did that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we couldn't find it in the couldn't find it. It
Speaker 1: wasn't like the one. We all got ready to go
Speaker 1: and then we didn't have the right chord.
Speaker 2: For it and the different person's problems. So anyway, it
Speaker 2: was nice to be back with you boys. I've missed you.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's been It doesn't feel like it's been an age. Bradley,
Speaker 1: what's been going on with you? You beat down a
Speaker 1: p Nordy must not be very long to go.
Speaker 3: Back down the pe Nordy countdown is on. I'll be
Speaker 3: back in the mighty nine at the end of the week.
Speaker 3: Project done a stack.
Speaker 1: Your prince will be very happy to have you back,
Speaker 1: very happy. Well, don's be said.
Speaker 3: She said she'd be sad. Actually she told my sister
Speaker 3: she wouldn't want it sad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you'll have to leave her like a
Speaker 2: little a little reminder, am.
Speaker 4: I to start carrying my laundry down? That I was
Speaker 4: going to say.
Speaker 2: By reminder, I meant just don't strip the bed and
Speaker 2: don't change the sheets and make her do all the work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I've actually I'm having some good mum time
Speaker 1: at the moment. I've had my mum up for the weekend.
Speaker 1: She's been grateful and she's supposed to fly home today
Speaker 1: but the pilot was sick, so she has to fly
Speaker 1: tomorrow because where she lives only one airline that goes there.
Speaker 1: So yeah, the pilot sex is flying in the morning.
Speaker 1: So I came out so afternoon and she was she'd
Speaker 1: cleaned the fridge out and cleaned the cupboards out.
Speaker 2: It must be the season. We did a massive spring
Speaker 2: cleaning our house.
Speaker 1: Over the weekend. As we feel good. Well, yeah, I
Speaker 1: got up. I cleaned up.
Speaker 2: I got up into the at ack because we've got
Speaker 2: quite a big ed. This is boring chair. I don't
Speaker 2: know if I feel like it's the chair of our
Speaker 2: generation relatable.
Speaker 1: It's totally real. We have a massive attic and but
Speaker 1: our houses.
Speaker 2: Our house is small in general, but the addict stretches
Speaker 2: across the whole roof, so there's a lot of space
Speaker 2: up there.
Speaker 1: But Kevin has space get room. Do you know what?
Speaker 2: There are multiple cutchiars up in the air deck really
Speaker 2: really truly Yeah, but it's just become a dumping ground,
Speaker 2: like everything gets chucked up there. But everything it's basically
Speaker 2: because it's like a set of stairs that pulled down.
Speaker 1: I was going to ask about how easy access here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very easy, very easy. Excess. Yeah, anyone can come
Speaker 1: and go.
Speaker 2: He literally, but so you pull down the stairs from
Speaker 2: the roof and then you climb the stairs. And what
Speaker 2: we've been doing is literally just climbing the stairs, chucking
Speaker 2: stuff at the top, and then leaving it. So it's
Speaker 2: meant that everything's piled up in the one space. So
Speaker 2: I got up, cleaned it all out, separated it into
Speaker 2: different areas depending on category of storage.
Speaker 1: See that sort of level of organization. That's what gets
Speaker 1: my almost forty year old hard Yeah. Yeah, like I'm it,
Speaker 1: I get it. Did you go? Well? Hang on, Christmas
Speaker 1: is coming better. Ring the Christmas tree a bit further forward,
Speaker 1: front and center, brilliant, front and center. Mate, old you
Speaker 1: is going to be so proud. You're going to be
Speaker 1: proud of old You. You'd be like, where's the Christmas tree?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: They're here too, Yeah, talking.
Speaker 3: About Christmas trees and we talk We've talked about this
Speaker 3: the last two Christmases.
Speaker 4: Are you going to put it up soon?
Speaker 2: Rather than yeah, we're away for Christmas this year. So
Speaker 2: Ryan's this has been this has been my bug beer
Speaker 2: since the beginning of time, and by the beginning of time,
Speaker 2: I mean since the start of our relationship. Ryan's whole
Speaker 2: ethos is if we're not here for Christmas Day, we
Speaker 2: don't put the tree up. Oh that's bullshit, and we're not.
Speaker 2: We're flying out on the twenty third. So we're here
Speaker 2: for the almost entirety of December, certainly enough time to
Speaker 2: have it. It's more than three weeks of tree time.
Speaker 1: I think this is when we might have to have it,
Speaker 1: like an hour the Gate rolls. So I say, hey, look,
Speaker 1: I talked about this with the boys on the podcast
Speaker 1: and they say, put tree out. I'm putting the tree out.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about.
Speaker 4: It will because you know, I'm a little bit like Ryan.
Speaker 4: I'm like sake, you know.
Speaker 3: But actually today I walked into like a party higher place,
Speaker 3: just just doing some reconnaissance for work, and they've they've
Speaker 3: got a section in there full of Christmas and I
Speaker 3: was kind of like, I stood a vomit, But then
Speaker 3: I was like, oh my god, it's nearly Christmas and
Speaker 3: the trees.
Speaker 4: That were decorated with gorgeous.
Speaker 1: See in our house. We obviously we'll definitely have the
Speaker 1: Christmas RN and we go up in December, but we've
Speaker 1: still a couple of seasons away. Currently, we've just gone
Speaker 1: up with Halloween. Are you a Halloween house? We are
Speaker 1: a Halloween house. We've got pumpkins. My niece has been
Speaker 1: here every the weekend. One of the fun top jobs
Speaker 1: has been counting how many pumpkins are around the house.
Speaker 1: There are numerous colored ones, ones with lights in them.
Speaker 2: So will you be shopping for candy? Come to October
Speaker 2: thirty first.
Speaker 1: Already done a mate, We did in America. Oh oh,
Speaker 1: divine are you what?
Speaker 2: Are you a heyho, come come and grab some candy kids,
Speaker 2: or are you a bar humbug?
Speaker 1: Get the hell off my property?
Speaker 4: Yeap, no Halloween and our household, thank you.
Speaker 2: I remember the first year that Ryan and I were
Speaker 2: living together, we got so excited by Halloween. We put
Speaker 2: up the decorations, we brought the candy, and then we've
Speaker 2: our whole that whole evening we were just inundated with doorbells,
Speaker 2: bring and we got so sick of it that the
Speaker 2: next year we shut the blind turned off all the lights,
Speaker 2: pretending we went at home a nice bar humbug again.
Speaker 1: Amongst it like it didn't needs to be my thing.
Speaker 1: But you know what, sometimes the relationships is about compromising,
Speaker 1: about just engaging in somebody else's interests. And look, this
Speaker 1: year there's a there's like a misting cauldron in the kitchen,
Speaker 1: which is quite nice. But Halloween signs on the door.
Speaker 1: We haven't quite got as far as cobwebs yet. Well
Speaker 1: like fake ones. It's a real one I suppose, not
Speaker 1: quite right for us, but it's fun.
Speaker 2: Oh well, maybe I'll get some candy. I don't look,
Speaker 2: I think It's too late for me to get decorated.
Speaker 2: I'm not doing decorations this year. But maybe I'll go
Speaker 2: and get some candy. Might go and get some candy.
Speaker 4: Maybe tell you what though.
Speaker 3: Again, out the shops over the weekend and camar is
Speaker 3: just chocer block of Halloween stuff. I was amazed at
Speaker 3: how much stock Halloween stock have gotten, the variety. I
Speaker 3: was like, wow, it's really hurt in New Zealand.
Speaker 1: Man, it has made good. Usually go to Costco. That's
Speaker 1: where that's where Halloween and Christmas have had little babies together.
Speaker 1: The whole middle of course, go is just half Halloween,
Speaker 1: half Christmas.
Speaker 2: I would love to go and like the the pop
Speaker 2: culture aficionado and me would love to go and celebrate
Speaker 2: Halloween because it just I was just constantly feed Halloween
Speaker 2: festivals and extravaganzas in the movies and the TV shows
Speaker 2: that they watched growing up. So the idea of going
Speaker 2: and doing that would be very exciting to me.
Speaker 1: What they do. I say that Halloween is like a
Speaker 1: very gay holiday. True, like many a gay event. Over
Speaker 1: over the Halloween period, you can sort of be wearing
Speaker 1: like some little devil horns in a jock strap. You
Speaker 1: could wear sort of like a skull face and a
Speaker 1: jock strap. You could wear a sort of like maybe
Speaker 1: like some draw some bones on you.
Speaker 3: And a jock strap perfect, or just just wear a
Speaker 3: jock strap because it covers every kind of ghoulish cushion
Speaker 3: you can think of. Apparently stays in Halloween. I must say, though,
Speaker 3: I am like Chris. I'm heading stateside next Monday and
Speaker 3: I'm there for two weeks and I've been invited to
Speaker 3: a Halloween party in New.
Speaker 1: York actually Halloween.
Speaker 3: I'm actually gonna lap it up because when do you
Speaker 3: get the opportunity to have Halloween and the US where
Speaker 3: we know that they just go hard.
Speaker 1: Go crazy. Are you just going to go devil horns
Speaker 1: in a junk strap.
Speaker 4: I'm just going to go devil horns.
Speaker 1: Straight.
Speaker 4: What you know? Why not hear your code?
Speaker 2: So I am I'm also going to a Halloween party
Speaker 2: at the end of this month, yes, and it's like
Speaker 2: a queer event Halloween part of Yes. So I need
Speaker 2: to come up with a costume. And I do know
Speaker 2: Angel Angel Wings.
Speaker 1: It's another great one. There will be a lot of that.
Speaker 1: So you think you'll turn up there and be like fuck,
Speaker 1: someone's were in the same costume, So do you Is
Speaker 1: it like a Win and Rome type situation.
Speaker 3: It's maybe a little harness and a jock strap. Then
Speaker 3: it's kind of you know, then it's an extra yourself
Speaker 3: angel wings. Then you're an extra angel.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Go hard, absolutely, go ahead and go home.
Speaker 4: I say, that's what they said. That's a good saying.
Speaker 4: Haven't one for a while.
Speaker 2: My question is because people do do like do go
Speaker 2: to those parties dress like that?
Speaker 1: So getting to the event, that's why there's a coach check. Mate,
Speaker 1: you can bring a jacket. Is that what it is?
Speaker 2: So that were along like almost like a trench coat
Speaker 2: type situation.
Speaker 1: And then I'll tell you this is just take a
Speaker 1: ruin the illusion of it. Most of the events, such
Speaker 1: as misbehavior as well as a coach check. What you'll
Speaker 1: find people often wear like a version of gym gear.
Speaker 1: So you'll arrive in more of a gym gear outfit.
Speaker 1: Pull off your gym shorts, take your gym single it
Speaker 1: off and then when Bambi, you are right.
Speaker 2: I did wonder that because I was like, are people
Speaker 2: just getting into the ordering their ubers? And then the
Speaker 2: Toyota prius is pulling up and you're just getting up
Speaker 2: and getting in in your jock strap, in your harness.
Speaker 1: What does make it quite hard in the winter.
Speaker 4: But then I mean, then you're doing that and you're
Speaker 4: going as a transformer. I don't know. Oh it's been hard.
Speaker 1: That was the dadest of Dare jokes ever. Could almost
Speaker 1: see my dad at end of the door still laughed.
Speaker 4: There's not a lot on the tech.
Speaker 1: Speaking of queer parties, did you see who was a
Speaker 1: special guest at quite a raunchy gay party in the
Speaker 1: UK over the weekend?
Speaker 4: Diddy hoster.
Speaker 1: Allegedly he did not.
Speaker 3: Path Well it's you know, it's not cancellable because we
Speaker 3: know it's top of mind.
Speaker 1: No. So this is party in the UK called Roast
Speaker 1: and it's a men's only party. Big, sort of like
Speaker 1: warehouse raves, lots of dark rooms, lots of fun times.
Speaker 1: Looks like a great party. It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: I saw a photo come through on the old Instagram
Speaker 1: this week. I'm a very special guest who had come
Speaker 1: along to to enjoy the party ladies and gentlemen, sadway
Speaker 1: between two beautiful twigs. Ian McKellen. Of course, of course
Speaker 1: he was so I he's he's not wearing a jocks
Speaker 1: angel wings. Just for the record, he is wearing a
Speaker 1: lovely floral shirt. But yes, so Ian McCowan. He's having
Speaker 1: a great time getting right amongst her. Amazing. Can you
Speaker 1: see that bread?
Speaker 4: I can. I'll look at that. He does get amongstter
Speaker 4: though I want a champ.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, I mean what is hespelly better?
Speaker 4: And it was from falling off a stage, not forgetting.
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, good pr works some different ways, mate.
Speaker 2: If I'm still getting sandwiched by two hot ripped men
Speaker 2: when i'm his age, all power to me.
Speaker 3: I reckon, absolutely, I usually I usually do it every
Speaker 3: week in between you guys.
Speaker 1: Stop it. I've got one other one that segways back
Speaker 1: off to this without even to acknowledge my segway. So
Speaker 1: not only this month is at Halloween's actually two other
Speaker 1: gay celebrations this month. Do you want any guesses of
Speaker 1: what they might be? A good alliteration in them? Maybe
Speaker 1: not literation that might have been a thing anyway. Two
Speaker 1: things to celebrate this month. First of all, this month
Speaker 1: is Joctober jock Tooba, where you wear a jock strap
Speaker 1: or different jockstrap every day for a month. Well, we're
Speaker 1: fourteen days in and I've only just got the memo.
Speaker 1: How many jock sets have you worn this month? None? None?
Speaker 1: Well we can we start now? Actually I lie, oh,
Speaker 1: one one, one day of a jockstrap. One day of
Speaker 1: a jockstrap. It's good. That's better than none. Congratulation, thank you.
Speaker 2: And it wasn't a whole day, but it was a
Speaker 2: devil of a day, a devil of a day in
Speaker 2: a jockstrap.
Speaker 1: And the second celebratory event that happens this month for homosexuals,
Speaker 1: which is a new one that I wasn't really across before,
Speaker 1: and that is October. Is that like a chastity chastity belt? Types?
Speaker 1: Is it really just totally most certainly is so October
Speaker 1: For those of us gators that maybe are not super
Speaker 1: across is where you wear you Actually didn't know how
Speaker 1: to describe it for honestly, I haven't never seen one
Speaker 1: of these in the flesh, so I've only seen them
Speaker 1: just by browsing the internet. But essentially they're like a
Speaker 1: little cage that puts your bits in and then you
Speaker 1: lock it, and then you obviously can't use your bits
Speaker 1: and pieces for recreational purposes, getting you can do whease
Speaker 1: I'm looking, I'm looking at to me all that they
Speaker 1: can give me no help in this regard.
Speaker 2: No, And I'm wondering is it more for the lock
Speaker 2: key or the locker, like who gets more out of it?
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. Maybe it's a bit of both, yea,
Speaker 1: because I suppose if you're the lock key, then you're
Speaker 1: giving up the key to somebody else, so they might
Speaker 1: be able to sort of hide it away, put it
Speaker 1: in an ice cube, and then you have to wait
Speaker 1: for it to melch to come out. But yes, of
Speaker 1: the whole month, you haven't. Yeah, I mean I'm guessing.
Speaker 1: Well obviously, because only it's that part of you that's
Speaker 1: been locked away. You can participate in other things. So
Speaker 1: I imagine by the indurs, ravenous animal, oh my god,
Speaker 1: blue balls. Yeah, locked up, locked.
Speaker 3: Up, So it is actually about locking it away for
Speaker 3: the month. It's like it's like drive July.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't raise money cancer.
Speaker 4: Is that the concept?
Speaker 1: Yes? Very much so. And then I think you can
Speaker 1: I think you can say to somebody like I'm doing
Speaker 1: a lock check on you, and then they have to
Speaker 1: send you a photo of you're wearing it. Shall I
Speaker 1: shall I find one on the end, okay, and we'll
Speaker 1: put it up. We'll put it up online. I don't
Speaker 1: know whether you can put it up online. Look. I
Speaker 1: tried to put a nice picture of an Olympian s
Speaker 1: bottom on the Internet and I got a very stern
Speaker 1: warning from Meta and I was like, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: want to get the group shut down. How am I
Speaker 1: gonna find it?
Speaker 4: And talking about.
Speaker 3: Big and now well, not announcements, but but celebrations. This
Speaker 3: week it was National coming Out Day last week.
Speaker 4: Totally missed it, but seen it come up on the
Speaker 4: pop up on the Instagram. And you know, that's our generation.
Speaker 3: Is awesome because we've talked about it a lot, around
Speaker 3: being proud and just you know, let's just get on
Speaker 3: with it. But a couple of celebrities, you know, they
Speaker 3: they jumped on one of the gay Star news at
Speaker 3: right on on the Instagram.
Speaker 1: A great place for content, a great place.
Speaker 3: Now this celebrity I'm not really aware of, so I've
Speaker 3: had to kind of wikipedi Wikipedia him.
Speaker 4: His name's Keenan Lonsdale. So you guys, you guys are well.
Speaker 3: Across right has little court it or about celebrating coming
Speaker 3: National Coming Out Day, is this my quote. I think
Speaker 3: it's strange that we have to come out at all.
Speaker 3: What I hope we do now is keep building a
Speaker 3: world where we don't have to come out, but we
Speaker 3: also don't have to hide, where we can just be
Speaker 3: whoever we are.
Speaker 4: And that is so true, It is so true.
Speaker 1: I do do I say it.
Speaker 2: I think we are getting there slowly. I mean, I
Speaker 2: think if you asked the younger generation, it would be
Speaker 2: far less of a thing coming out these days. It
Speaker 2: would very much just be an open policy of in
Speaker 2: a date whoever I want, and I don't need to
Speaker 2: make a big song and dance about who it is
Speaker 2: that I'm dating. I still think obviously we've got a
Speaker 2: long way to go, But yeah, I do think we're
Speaker 2: getting better as a society generally.
Speaker 1: I think it's become a lot more fluid either, younger folk,
Speaker 1: do you agree, Brad.
Speaker 3: One hundreds definitely become fluid and more acceptable, and just yeah,
Speaker 3: it's you know, because we've all had those kind of
Speaker 3: those experiences and we've talked about it in a number
Speaker 3: of times and the times where we've had to recome out,
Speaker 3: which kind of not as you know, necessarily ret more
Speaker 3: toping but get into that place where it's just as
Speaker 3: it was just fantastic.
Speaker 1: I'll give you an example of it. Me and my
Speaker 1: partner has come back from holiday. We went to America.
Speaker 1: I went to Hawaii, had a spectacular time. Definitely ended
Speaker 1: up in a couple of hotel rooms with two double
Speaker 1: beds in them. So did Ryan and Australian holiday.
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh interesting, yeah, yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: know if it was part of me was like, am
Speaker 2: I just reading too much into this because I don't know.
Speaker 1: But they were definitely was like, there was definitely a
Speaker 1: look and then there was the giving. The keys arrived
Speaker 1: in the room, two double beds. I mean, my partent
Speaker 1: thought it was a wonderfully He was like two beds
Speaker 1: and I was like, get fucked. One's one's for the suitcases. Obviously,
Speaker 1: well I did. I did get a question the other day.
Speaker 1: I was sort of out and about and got talking
Speaker 1: to this this guy and he goes, oh, yes, what
Speaker 1: do you do?
Speaker 4: Told him want to do? I modesty? Wife did? That
Speaker 4: was like the city pisure, straight off a bat.
Speaker 1: He works. I would have loved that. She's busy at home,
Speaker 1: she makes the dinners, does the laundry because it's because
Speaker 1: you're so masked babes. People just yeah, so the most
Speaker 1: mask of masks. Like as you said it, you just
Speaker 1: like lean back and you just like really limped that wrist.
Speaker 4: She works.
Speaker 2: Anyway, heavy, heavy coming out day, because yes, I think
Speaker 2: it is important to always take stock of like hell
Speaker 2: far have come and how far we still need to
Speaker 2: go as well in terms of just making it very normal,
Speaker 2: very normal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we've got so many cool platforms, you know,
Speaker 3: like on social media and Rue Pools Drag Race. I
Speaker 3: do want to make a plug and shout out to
Speaker 3: our good friend Akita Man, who is featuring on the
Speaker 3: season's Rue Pools Drag Race down unders.
Speaker 1: Hot Old Pockets given me a face, is not sure
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Yeah, I don't know who you're talking about.

Speaker 1: couple of weeks and we've done holidays. Yay, tell us
Speaker 1: about wearing your acuber and going to La I.
Speaker 4: So with your Kubra jocksture and October.
Speaker 2: So we went to Australia, right, and I and we
Speaker 2: had a few couple of days in Sydney and then
Speaker 2: we had tacked on three or four days at Uluru
Speaker 2: is rock amazing. It was the most magical place I've
Speaker 2: ever been to. It was just so special and we
Speaker 2: went in with pretty high expectations, I would say, and
Speaker 2: then once something happened and I landed and I and
Speaker 2: I got I got an understanding of the fact that
Speaker 2: that it is it's a rock, right, it is a
Speaker 2: rock in the middle of a desert. And my first
Speaker 2: part of me early on was like, man, am I
Speaker 2: going to get am I going to get sick of
Speaker 2: this after a while because we are more days and
Speaker 2: maybe it's one of these things where you only need
Speaker 2: to come and see it once and then you're done
Speaker 2: with it. I never got sick of seeing it. Every
Speaker 2: single time I caught a glimpse of it. I was
Speaker 2: just an absolute awe right up until the moment we left.
Speaker 2: Even when we were flying we flew out of Ularoo,
Speaker 2: and flying you could see it out of the airplane
Speaker 2: window and I still was just like open mouthed, just
Speaker 2: jaw was on the floor. It was so beautiful, really special,
Speaker 2: really spiritual. It was just amazing and so fun as well.
Speaker 2: We did so many activities there.
Speaker 1: It looked absolutely incredible on the internet and nice to
Speaker 1: get away and have some special time with you, darling lovely.
Speaker 2: We did, though, take advantage of the fact that there
Speaker 2: were two beds o room and slept in separate beds
Speaker 2: while we were there.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we enjoyed. Did you have a
Speaker 1: what do they call it? A like an really? And
Speaker 1: then and then who had to get out of the bed?
Speaker 1: Who had the who had to sleep in the whit spot?
Speaker 2: I I I think I would regularly get out of
Speaker 2: the bed, but that was mostly because I was the
Speaker 2: one that was encouraging the like cuddling and spooning at nighttime.
Speaker 2: But no, it was such an amazing holiday. I became
Speaker 2: someone that I never thought I would become though, because
Speaker 2: we decided one day that we were going to run
Speaker 2: around Ularu.
Speaker 1: There's like a part track that goes all the way
Speaker 1: around it. Yes, so it was just under ten k's
Speaker 1: round trip, so like a decent run but not crazy crazy.
Speaker 1: And is it hot? It can get hot, really hot.
Speaker 1: I mean in summer it gets very, very hot.
Speaker 2: But we were there it was like late twenties in
Speaker 2: the middle, in the head of the day, so we
Speaker 2: did an early morning run. But I became someone who
Speaker 2: took the top off when they ran, and I never
Speaker 2: thought I would be that person.
Speaker 1: Oh watch out, suburbs of Auckland. I want to see
Speaker 1: this in the flesh.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: If you've started, we've done it once, and you've broken
Speaker 1: the bed at the back of it, why not you
Speaker 1: had a great rig shout it off.
Speaker 2: But the beauty was I did it knowing full well
Speaker 2: I wasn't going to ever see anyone that I knew,
Speaker 2: and I was out running the other day and I
Speaker 2: ran right past your partner.
Speaker 1: Man, Oh, yes you did. I bet he didn't say
Speaker 1: that you had your shirt off. I didn't hear my
Speaker 1: shirt off because I wouldn't have my shirt off. Why not?
Speaker 2: Because I know people here and I don't want them
Speaker 2: to think that I'm that douchebag that runs with the
Speaker 2: top off.
Speaker 4: See.
Speaker 1: Now this is where I are having a shue with this,
Speaker 1: because you are using somebody else's possible thought about you
Speaker 1: to It's essentially change the way that you want to
Speaker 1: behaved percent. Of course I am, and I don't think
Speaker 1: that's necessary. But isn't that just life? Isn't that what
Speaker 1: we do all the time. No, I think you should
Speaker 1: be brave. I think if you want to be, if
Speaker 1: you want to be a role model, and you want
Speaker 1: to be, you want to be a role model to us.
Speaker 1: I reckon, get the nips out, free the Nips brand.
Speaker 3: One hundred percent agree. Get out their door, babes, Summer's coming. Absolutely,
Speaker 3: I can get out there and just if it feels good,
Speaker 3: do it.
Speaker 1: Great way of not having that sort of T shirt
Speaker 1: tan sort of scenario going on.
Speaker 4: Well, I would like chaping on the nipples.
Speaker 2: I would like to turn up for some of this
Speaker 2: year because I'm usually a pasty white little thing.
Speaker 1: It's a good way to start.
Speaker 4: Come on, no no pressure.
Speaker 3: But you know if if you're comor no pressure, you
Speaker 3: get any pressure, you're getting hot and sweety.
Speaker 4: What the shoot off babes?
Speaker 1: In fact, I think what I'm gonna do is if
Speaker 1: I see you around and you're wearing a shirt, I mean,
Speaker 1: get your TT's out. Okay, okay, fine, I'll do it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, solved, locked that one in the dock. That
Speaker 1: one's been agreed. Nevous, I'll nervously give it a go.
Speaker 1: Make any new friends while you're on holidays? Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: so we were so ularu.
Speaker 2: There's like a it's called the Ears Rock Resort, and
Speaker 2: there's like four different accommodation types in the same area,
Speaker 2: so it's all very combined and you can kind of
Speaker 2: like walk through each each accommodation spot. You can actually
Speaker 2: like use each other's pools and facilities and things. There's
Speaker 2: like a little supermarket and a petrol station. And we
Speaker 2: were at one of the cafes and we saw these
Speaker 2: two guys and me and Rama both like, oh, they
Speaker 2: are very attractive, and then we went for a walk
Speaker 2: later that day, like a hike near Ularut, and we
Speaker 2: saw them again and they were beautiful men with their.
Speaker 1: Tops off seat starting a trend. They influenced me to
Speaker 1: get my top off when I went running. Okay, if
Speaker 1: they can do it, why can't you do it?
Speaker 2: Yep, So they got they had the tops off, and
Speaker 2: me and Rum we're both like And then we ended
Speaker 2: up going up for dinner with them because by accident,
Speaker 2: they were on the same at nighttime dinner activity that
Speaker 2: we were doing underneath the stars, and we ended up
Speaker 2: hanging out with them. Now, I'm not going to like,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna spoil their privacy by putting these publicly,
Speaker 2: so I do apologie eys, but you're gonna have to
Speaker 2: just use the reactions of Brad and Chris as an
Speaker 2: idea of the men that we were hanging out with
Speaker 2: on our holiday.
Speaker 1: Right break and go first.
Speaker 4: I can't say it, no way, keep it up.
Speaker 1: And then that's the other one.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, gorgeous, gorgeenie.
Speaker 1: Oh hot, okay, nice, real nice. So I've made an
Speaker 1: assumption that their boyfriends are their boyfriends. They were I
Speaker 1: thought they were boyfriends too. They were not boyfriends. They
Speaker 1: were just friends, just friends, homosexual friends, homosexual friends, homosexual friends.
Speaker 2: Homosexual friends that we made on holiday and you know what, right,
Speaker 2: and I got back to our hotel because we will
Speaker 2: all stay at the same hotel, and we were like,
Speaker 2: if we were ever to, you know, this is the
Speaker 2: night to do it, and these are the people to
Speaker 2: do it with. I'm so sorry to tell you I
Speaker 2: don't have a great story for you. Oh nothing happened.
Speaker 2: There's no story to tell. But they were beautiful men.
Speaker 1: And lifelong friends that you'll follow on Instagram and never
Speaker 1: see again in your life.
Speaker 2: Exactly. Isn't there such a holiday thing though, you like
Speaker 2: assume them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it even happens when your kid's right and you're
Speaker 3: like wherever you know, with your parents and you meet
Speaker 3: some people over the week or two that you're you know,
Speaker 3: hanging out the holiday camp or whatever, and you're going
Speaker 3: to be lifelong friends.

Speaker 2: Hey, while we were in Australia, so my sister lives
Speaker 2: in Sydney and there's ten years between my sister and
Speaker 2: I so she's twenty seven, so you're still so little
Speaker 2: gen Zea. She is, she's an official gen Zenda. And
Speaker 2: while we were in Sydney, she's just moved into a
Speaker 2: new flat and she said, we're having drinks that are
Speaker 2: new flat at a little housewarming, and I thought, cute.
Speaker 2: We can go along, meet a few of the friends,
Speaker 2: very casual, have a few drinks.
Speaker 1: Is this when you wore the jockstrap. This is not
Speaker 1: when I wore the drug strap. I wore the job
Speaker 1: strap the night that I thought we might have the forces.
Speaker 1: I approved. I kid I kuild, I kidic it.
Speaker 2: Anyway, so we went right and I thought, yeah, let's
Speaker 2: go along to this house these drinks of my sisters.
Speaker 2: So we turn up and we are quite early, as
Speaker 2: Zelle want. And the first thing that happened was I said,
Speaker 2: we brought a bottle of gin and some mixes, so
Speaker 2: can we have some glasses? And Mikayla came out, my
Speaker 2: sister with these two paper cups that were tiny. They
Speaker 2: were like this big. They were so small it was
Speaker 2: like a little thimble. And I said to her, I'm
Speaker 2: so sorry. I can't I can't be doing this and
Speaker 2: she said, well, we're not.
Speaker 1: Getting out it sounds like Tracy's going around. I've drink
Speaker 1: out of a proper wine glass. Neck you very much,
Speaker 1: no one of your dumb tumblers.
Speaker 2: Mikayla said, we're not giving out what we're not giving
Speaker 2: out glass weir. I said, well, I'm not drinking out
Speaker 2: of these paper cups. To be fair, it was more
Speaker 2: about the size of the cup than the than the
Speaker 2: material of the cup. But I made her go and
Speaker 2: get us glass were so that we could drink out
Speaker 2: gin and tonics.
Speaker 1: Had age yourself at a party. Yeah, he's old. That's
Speaker 1: where he's got the glass. He's responsible. Well, it got
Speaker 1: worse because after a while I was like, I'm very hungry.
Speaker 1: Is there any food?
Speaker 2: And she said no, that's not food. I said, you
Speaker 2: mean there's no like chacuterie board or anything. No, there
Speaker 2: was no chakudaie board. There were three packets of chips,
Speaker 2: like lazily tossed on a table outside. So I had
Speaker 2: to go and open this bag of chips by myself
Speaker 2: and then just sit in the corner by myself eating
Speaker 2: these salt and vinegar chips.
Speaker 1: And look, I would have thought you'd have been better
Speaker 1: at this because you've been to a few sort of
Speaker 1: young people parties recently. Didn't you go to a thirtieth recently? Did? I?
Speaker 1: I feel like it did. Oh god, I'm so old,
Speaker 1: I can't even remember. You've lost my memory. But no,
Speaker 1: So there was no food.
Speaker 2: There were paper cups, and then it just descended into
Speaker 2: what I describe as chaos. There were I reckon, like
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty people that tuned up to this house.
Speaker 1: Putty, that sounds like a nightmare. How big was this house?
Speaker 1: Not big enough for one hundred and twenty people?
Speaker 2: I don't think we've got party at Kelly Brown's. So
Speaker 2: they were upstairs, they were downstairs. There was a dj.
Speaker 1: I love party at Kelly brow It's such a that
Speaker 1: really shows our lage. Also, you both been blank about it,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh god, how old am I that?
Speaker 1: That's I explained to someone else the other.
Speaker 3: Day if you need to sort of like find out
Speaker 3: more about what Kelly Browns is and what the references
Speaker 3: just type of nineteen ninety.
Speaker 1: Exactly, using it's on the air.
Speaker 4: But it was.
Speaker 1: It truly was.
Speaker 2: It was like one of those parties where it had
Speaker 2: just obviously the message had gone around and all of
Speaker 2: these people were just turning up. They had no idea
Speaker 2: even who was hosting the party fun and I just
Speaker 2: felt very old. Then we got very drunk trying to
Speaker 2: keep up with these twenty something year olds, and it
Speaker 2: was not fun because the next morning we had to
Speaker 2: get up at seven o'clock for a flight back to
Speaker 2: New Zealand. And I thought, this is why we don't
Speaker 2: try and keep up with the twenty five year olds anymore.
Speaker 1: Is that what you said to your husband as you're
Speaker 1: just both dyed of some eggs and cheese at the Coral? Yes?
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I thought we should have just we should have
Speaker 2: taken the paper cups smaller sizes and maybe wouldn't be
Speaker 2: feeling this way.
Speaker 1: My biggest concern about this party is how what the
Speaker 1: lines of the toilets would have been? Nightmare, an absolute nightmare.
Speaker 1: And you'd be hard for us to be in the
Speaker 1: line of the penis, wouldn't you. They'd be like, get
Speaker 1: to that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, although I reckon penis uses it a house
Speaker 2: party toilet much faster, like much faster. My argument is,
Speaker 2: let me get it, I'm in out and then there's
Speaker 2: one less person in the queue. I'll be done in minutes. Yeah, seconds,
Speaker 2: like I could be done and under a minute if
Speaker 2: I don't wash my hands, you know, so.
Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, so let me get in.
Speaker 2: I'll be out of you here and then you're free
Speaker 2: to use it for as long as you want, ladies,
Speaker 2: as long as you want.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 2: That is my reminders myself that we there is a
Speaker 2: reason we don't try and keep up with the gen
Speaker 2: zsch for life.
Speaker 1: Run. Let's run our own race with a shakuterie board
Speaker 1: at the end.
Speaker 4: Of it.
Speaker 1: In a steamless one glow boys, it's so nice to
Speaker 1: be back with you.
Speaker 4: Unfortunately it's been real Colby back, but I'm away for
Speaker 4: two weeks. You're not going to hear from me.
Speaker 1: We're going to find it. We're going to find a third. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we are going to find a third, are you okay?
Speaker 1: If we look out for a.
Speaker 3: Third, find a third or a fourth even they might
Speaker 3: even be a best part of the country or the
Speaker 3: side of the world and suddenly Umiosphere.
Speaker 2: If we got them on the podcast, I wouldn't be
Speaker 2: able to talk. I wouldn't know in Look, we'll definitely
Speaker 2: be doing some video content.
Speaker 4: It's hard to talk with something in your mouth.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, you have a great couple of weeks. You
Speaker 1: have fun in America, enjoying Halloween. I look forward to
Speaker 1: some sort of report from the regions of America.
