00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 4: I've got the one that everyone had their hands on,

12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 4: and I didn't see it for some time.

13
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: So I don't know where that thing's been.

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 3: I know where it's been. That's why I let you

15
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 3: have it.

16
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I noticed spent a bit of time on Kyle

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,480
Speaker 4: and Jackie Ohe's table. So that scares me because those

18
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: kids are obsessed with anal.

19
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: I'll just tell you that they are. They're always talking

20
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: about it.

21
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 4: They wouldn't have put it there. I don't that table.

22
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 4: Once again, it was out of sight for some time. Oh,

23
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 4: I'm saying a few people were walking for.

24
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: Baby Chatfield was running where the batteries went.

25
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: Look at us, we've just gone crazy.

26
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 3: Well look at this. Let's talk about James Blunt speing crazy. Yeah,

27
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 3: he put this out recently. I know you've heard the rumors,

28
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 3: he said, and they're true. I'm re really sing my

29
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 3: debut album Back to Bedlam on October eleventh, something that

30
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 3: has kept me consistently rich for the past twenty years. Nice.

31
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: He said this on social media, so as a way

32
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 3: to give back to you, my adoring public. If Back

33
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 3: to Bedlam re enters the charts at number one, it's

34
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: like bribery. I will legally change my name. What will

35
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: I change it to? It's entirely up to you.

36
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: Oh that's a little crazy.

37
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: Well, this is his way of trying to get people

38
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 3: to make it go number one. This is very un

39
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: James Blunt. He I would have thought it a nice

40
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: kind of He's funny and he's dry and he's quirky,

41
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 3: and this is like, this is stunty. But what is

42
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 3: In the past, he's been told that, you know the

43
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: song You're Beautiful, it's been voted as the most annoying

44
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 3: song ever to be released, and he shared some of

45
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 3: the names he's already been called, including the most hated

46
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 3: man in pop, annoying, and James Beige. He says, I'll

47
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 3: let the people decide, but if it doesn't go to

48
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 3: number one. I'm not changing my name, he said, my

49
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 3: name is James Blunt and you have the power to

50
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 3: absolutely beep my life.

51
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 4: Well, that is true, and we like James Blunt. He's

52
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 4: been on a show many times.

53
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: He's kind of funnily narky.

54
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 4: He's funnily narky. If he was to change his name.

55
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 4: What's happening, what's going to be changed? What it is,

56
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 4: what's already happened.

57
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 3: The vote is in. I don't know yet when the

58
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 3: album is going to be released and whether it's gone

59
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: to number one. If it does go to number one,

60
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 3: this is the overwhelming name people have asked for him

61
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 3: to be called Blunt he mcblunt face, and he took

62
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: to social media to share that his fans have chosen

63
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: that new name. With a big sigh, he announced the

64
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 3: name before commenting, people have no imagination.

65
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 2: They don't what do you think people are going to say?

66
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: Let's call you sir Jane suggestion.

67
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 3: I had to call him the most handsome man in

68
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: the world. He knows people are going to go rudy town,

69
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,519
Speaker 3: but blunting mcblunt face, he thought was a bit boring.

70
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, the general public have no creativity like body mcboat face.

71
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: When that happened, and that was some years ago.

72
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 3: I was twenty sixteen and so that's what happened, and.

73
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 2: That was funny. At the time I was British and.

74
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 3: So that's nearly ten years ago. The British public at

75
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 3: the time was asked to name a research vessel and

76
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: they called it Body mcboat face. Was the favorite, to

77
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: the dismay of many, and the boat was renamed to

78
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: RSS Sir David Attenborough. So but Bodie mcboat face became

79
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 3: kind of a joke.

80
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 4: Well it happened here with one of the fairies and

81
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 4: Sir Ian Keenan Keenan around the world sailor.

82
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: And he started clean up Australia, clean Up Australia.

83
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: Ambassador was going.

84
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 4: There was a ferry to be named after him, but

85
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 4: instead the dopes run this country decided to go with

86
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 4: public opinion and called it body mcboat face.

87
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: There's a few things wrong with that.

88
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 4: Firstly, unoriginal af Secondly, in was a great Australian.

89
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: You know, Harley, my husband has a theory that Bodham

90
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: boat face triggered a whole lot of stuff. People thought, hey,

91
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 3: we can go the raz because he said that bregsit

92
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: happened not long after this. Donald Trump got in long

93
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 3: after this. He just it's like people said, people power

94
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: can be funny, but not realizing the consequences. There are

95
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: liqu the table if you like it, but there will

96
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 3: be consequences.

97
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Actually, the sim Simpsons prophesies this with the Buttead

98
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 2: Memorial Room or Buttead Memorial Auditorium.

99
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 3: And it's James Blunt in there.

100
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 2: And Seymour Skimmers Skinner, the principal. Principal.

101
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 4: Skinner said, I regret getting the students to name this

102
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 4: hall so and that was the Simpsons met many years ago,

103
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 4: and they have prophesied many many things.

104
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: I'd like to see people be more creative. If you

105
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: were to be creative about, what.

106
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,800

00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 2: To you.

160
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 5: Okay, wasn't that.

161
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 3: Well? That's nice, dear. That sounds stop just stop it.

162
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 3: That sounds like turn it off, Brendan. That sounds at

163
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 3: the beginnings of TikTok Tucker, you baiting me? And when

164
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 3: do I get upset?

165
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 4: Look young, we are they really, I don't have a

166
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 4: Devon patch back then, but I did.

167
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 3: What I was going to talk about today is I'll

168
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 3: get to why I'm talking about Kim Kardashian dressing as

169
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 3: Marilyn Monroe. But to give me the background on why

170
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 3: she was. This was at the met Gala a couple

171
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 3: of years ago where the theme was America, and so

172
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 3: she dressed in the iconic dress, the actual dress that

173
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 3: Marilyn Monroe wore when she's sang Happy Birthday, Yes, John

174
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: Kennedy and John F. Kennedy's sitting next to his wife,

175
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 3: Jackie Onassis as she wore she was Jackie Kennedy then,

176
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 3: and Marilyn Monroe is just oozing sex. Yeah, and many

177
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 3: rooms were swirling that the two of them were doing it. Yeah,

178
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 3: of course, and so everyone's going, what and what a

179
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 3: beautiful iconic American moment. But so it was a big

180
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 3: deal that she got to wear this dress because it's

181
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 3: in Ripley's believe it or not. What a beautiful, sensitive

182
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 3: place to keep it in Orlando and Florida. So she

183
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 3: had the dress flown on a private plane from there

184
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 3: to come to her home for a fitting. She said

185
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 3: the dress was transported by guards, and I had to

186
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 3: wear gloves to try it on. I always thought that

187
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: Marilyn Monroe was curvy. I imagined I might be smaller

188
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 3: in some places where she was bigger, and bigger in

189
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 3: places where she was smaller. So when it didn't fit me,

190
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 3: I wanted to cry because the dress could not be altered.

191
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 3: It's a heritage dress. It could not be altered. So

192
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 3: she went on to lose or sixteen pounds, which is

193
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 3: over seven kilos, to fit into this dress.

194
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 2: Good adjustment.

195
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 3: She said, I would wear a sauna suit twice a day.

196
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 3: I'd run on a treadmill, cut out all sugar and

197
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 3: all carbs. I clean as vegetables. I didn't starve myself,

198
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 3: but I was so although many people have said a

199
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 3: zeen pig much anyway, the reason I'm bringing up all

200
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 3: of that is that she has claimed in a recent

201
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 3: interview that people didn't know who Marilyn Monroe was before

202
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: she wore that to the Metcarla. She's had an interview

203
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 3: where she said that she was shocked that many people

204
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 3: on TikTok had not heard of Marilyn Monroe. So she said,

205
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 3: I think it's wonderful that this gave me the opportunity

206
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 3: to share this moment, so the dress couldn't leave right now. Kim, kay,

207
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 3: But that's so typical of people who think they've invented

208
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 3: everything that people didn't know Marilyn Monroe until her It's well.

209
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 4: I think the people that watch or support the Kardashians

210
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 4: aren't the people that would know much about history. I

211
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 4: dare say they'd probably have the memory span of housefly.

212
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 3: Well do you remember all the interest of a house fly?

213
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 2: Possibly the interest of a house you know.

214
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 3: We have a competition early in the morning called the

215
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 3: Magnificent Seven, and there's trivia questions from all kinds of things.

216
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: It might be a question about World War Two, might

217
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 3: be a question about ancient they're not tricky questions, but

218
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 3: people go, I don't know, that was before my time.

219
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: It's called history. History, It's called history.

220
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 2: It's like our history.

221
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 4: When I spanked you, imagine spanking Kim Kardashian's big army

222
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 4: and botbot.

223
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 2: That would take.

224
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 3: It'll still be reverberating.

225
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: Quite the spoon.

226
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 4: And a disclaimer, Amanda doesn't bash any kids.

227
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 3: All that was that the most offensive thing.

228
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: Get Ready, everybody shares some more joy and Amanda's Coton

229
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: Root Philip.

230
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 2: Hey, Hey, okay, get ready everybody sharing.

231
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,120

Speaker 5: Room?

Speaker 3: Well hello, hello, hello everyone. We are Jonesy and Amanda.

235
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 3: We do the Breakfast Show on ws FM. And yes,

236
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: I know what you're saying. My name should be coming

237
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 3: first stop it. But anyway, here we are.

238
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 4: I'd rather hear about the lack of motorcycle parking in

239
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 4: the Tumblelong Vicinity. That's what I'd rather hear about, instead

240
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 4: of your being dipped out on Bill in the show.

241
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 3: Well, both those things for us years, I know, and

242
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 3: I've winged about it ever since.

243
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 2: And we've had the stationary maid.

244
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, once the station's made, you can't go back.

245
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: What are you going to do?

246
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 3: What are you going to do? Once you've got business cards?

247
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 3: That's it.

248
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 4: Maybe I should get another Amanda to work with me

249
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 4: that would be more compliant, like Amanda Holden say.

250
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, she'd be completely compliant to work behind the

251
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 3: name Jonesy. She would be. That is true. It's nice

252
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 3: to be anyway it is. I'm going to take my hand.

253
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,839
Speaker 2: And go okay, it's quite the end.

254
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 3: Well, hello, as I was saying, we did the breat

255
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 3: for show at WSFM and we're recording this.

256
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 4: Did you mentioned about the award? Tell him about the award?

257
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: Was every major newspaper missed it?

258
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 3: But that's not true.

259
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: They did. They pretty much did bye, But we.

260

Speaker 3: On Saturday Night won the award. I hate being a.

261
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,440

00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 3: We won the award for the best Radio show in Australia.

263
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 3: As Jonesy said, it was a two peat. Some people

264
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 3: say repeat, we say two peete, we've won two years

265
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 3: in a row.

266
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 2: Well, they got the shirts paid.

267
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 3: I know, thank you, thank you, appreciate it stank here,

268
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: thanks marm. You know they said it couldn't be done,

269
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 3: Well I said it couldn't. In fact, it was done

270
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 3: and it was great, a great accolade to be had.

271
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean this is going to be any good,

272
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 3: but we'll do our best.

273
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 2: Right, So this is you got to coast now.

274
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 3: Well, someone very kindly came and gave me an arn

275
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 3: coaster and you said, isn't that.

276
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 2: What we are? We've been coasting for some time.

277
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 3: Absolutely. We are doing this podcast as part of our

278
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 3: Cutting Room Floor podcast. Every day we have a show

279
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 3: called jam Nation that goes at six o'clock around the country,

280
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,839
Speaker 3: some places at five o'clock, yes, and.

281
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: That's in some places at nine o'clock at night, and

282
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 4: someplace a special time of ten to thirty.

283
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: Some places refuse to play it and just have the

284
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 3: sound of a foghorn going instead.

285
00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,599
Speaker 4: I feel like I should be sitting back in a

286
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 4: more come stable position like you see those Influence when

287
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 4: they do it in a strange sort of Ginsburg way.

288
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 3: You need to be sitting on a bean bag of

289
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 3: nies so it still sounds like you're wearing some sort

290
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 3: of rubber arrangement.

291
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 4: Well, I've got my wet weather gear on the seat

292
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 4: because I'm a motorcyclist.

293
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,959
Speaker 3: Even though we're under cover. That's fair enough. Anyway, we

294
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 3: do a thing called jam Nation. We also do a

295
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: little adjunct, which is what we're going to do today,

296
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 3: and that's what I call Jones, a little adjunct. We

297
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 3: are going to do this where we just got them

298
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 3: eating out of the path and I adjust these two

299
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 3: people are where we're going to just talk about something

300
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 3: we didn't get around to talking about the show.

301
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 2: It ended up on the cutting room floor.

302
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 3: How about this? This is the headline, and we'll work

303
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 3: back from there. Etiquette experts say middle plane seat gets

304
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 3: both armrests. This has been a big debate for many

305
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: years as to who gets the arm rest on a plane.

306
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 3: We can all agree. I think that the window seat

307
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: is great unless you have a bladder the size of

308
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: a Budgies bladder like I have. But I still would

309
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: prefer the window seat, the aisle seat, which is easy

310
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 3: access to the loo to get up to grab things

311
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: from the trolley, whatever you need to do. The middle

312
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 3: seat is neither here nor there, and you charge the

313
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 3: same amount to sit there. So they're saying here that

314
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 3: to compensate, you should be able to have access to

315
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: both arm risks because everyone else has one.

316
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 4: I know this might be a little bit different for

317
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 4: you because you're always in the rarefied air of the

318
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 4: business or the first class.

319
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 3: I think you'll find I sit up with the pilot

320
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 3: in his.

321
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 2: Lap, so this isn't something that you would have to

322
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: deal with.

323
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 4: But down there on real Man Street where I live,

324
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 4: the window seat is probably the least. If you're a

325
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 4: bit of a yokolt it's never been on a plane before,

326
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 4: go the window seat.

327
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: For me, it's all.

328
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: Ale, it's all aisle seat is there, you can go

329
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 4: to the loo.

330
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 2: You get the food first, you get everything that you need.

331
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 3: You don't get the food first because you get the

332
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 3: food flow. You don't. They lean across and give it

333
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: to the person next to the window.

334
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 4: When the host he comes past flight attendant, when they

335
00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 4: or she come past, or he comes past you.

336
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 2: For a drink, easier to get their attention. That's because

337
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 2: if you put your knee out a little bit like this,

338
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 2: Oh sorry, sir, I just ran into you with the

339
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 2: beer cart. Would you like something while I'm here? So

340
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: that's what works.

341
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: So you're one of those people that sits on a

342
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 4: plane because and you're looking out the window and you're go, oh,

343
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 4: this is great at the you know, the wind, big deal.

344
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: You know, my husband will always want the window seat,

345
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: and so it's just as shme.

346
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 2: Well, he's a flyboy, he likes flying.

347
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 3: One day, my son thought it was funny and took

348
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 3: the window seat. Harley didn't talk to him for the

349
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 3: entire holiday. He took it so personally that his seat

350
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: had been taken. So I if ever I sit in

351
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 3: the window seat, I get a bit anxious that I'm

352
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 3: going to be yelled at isn't this the same man

353
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 3: the bolder fastball at eleven year old girl in a

354
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 3: friendly game of backyard got get story wrong. We were

355
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 3: in some tony squire's backyard and his daughter, who's now

356
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: grown up, was probably about eleven years old, and we're

357
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 3: playing backyard cricket and everyone was whatched. She had a

358
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 3: cast on her arm, it had broken. Everyone's watching her

359
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 3: bowl and Harley's going, I want to go. So I

360
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 3: watched him so embarrassed. I watch him go up to

361
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 3: her and reefit out of her hands her broken arm,

362
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 3: and I was just so embarrassed. His competitive nature that

363
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: sometimes gets the better of him. That's good, But have

364
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 3: your put about this though. This is a thing that's

365
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 3: just been in the news today. There's a company called

366
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 3: Journey jur nae cute spelling. You know, we're not fans

367
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 3: of cute spelling here, but obviously for copyright reasons, they

368
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 3: can't call it Journey or the band would be off

369
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 3: in arms. But what they do is they facilitate people

370
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 3: to get reduced fares who will help out on the plane.

371
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 3: And I don't mean serving meals and doing the mask

372
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 3: over your face business. They if you need help with

373
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 3: the elderly, with kids. If you've traveling with babies and

374
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 3: you need someone to help you, they work out a

375
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 3: deal where you travel at reduced rate and someone is

376
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 3: your traveling helper or companion.

377
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 4: You know, when you get on the plane and I said,

378
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 4: do you have a problem sitting at the window seat

379
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 4: that's got the emergency exit seat?

380
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 2: That one'm there, and then they give you a special

381
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 2: briefing in case something.

382
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 3: Goes back, you don't get a reduced flight.

383
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: I'll just say this more often than that, I am

384
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 4: asked if I want that seat, because I think people

385
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 4: when they see me getting on the plane, they go, well,

386
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 4: here's a guy that is going to when S goes down.

387
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 3: He is your fantasy that S goes down on a plane.

388
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 3: And you're the guy. You're on the window seat and

389
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 3: you've had eighteen beers push your knee into every cart

390
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 3: that's gone past.

391
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 2: I'm like, Sully, you know you just got to make

392
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: that decision to.

393
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 3: Land the plane. Is that your fantasy? A lot of

394
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 3: men would have that fantasy. They'd get on a plane

395
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 3: and they look around and they see, if there is

396
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 3: a crisis, who would I punch? Who would I rescue.

397
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 3: Who would I pash?

398
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 2: Do you do that?

399
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 3: Or is imagining that's what men do?

400
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 2: Is this men?

401
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 4: Now?

402
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 3: Would you join them?

403
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 2: High men? You often think that, But when you sit

404
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 2: at that window seat, I always when I get on

405
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 2: a plane, I'm always thinking about the variables. Variables, No,

406
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 2: not just that that. You know, there's a lot of

407
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 2: times when you think, okay, I could help out here,

408
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 2: I'm a helper.

409
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 3: That's true. Well, then would you take if you say

410
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 3: you're flying to London? Ye, would you pay a portion?

411
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 3: Like instead of paying fifteen hundred dollars, you'd pay seven

412
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 3: hundred dollars to fly as someone's companion, an elderly person

413
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 3: or a woman with babies.

414
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 2: Okay, I could have okay.

415
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 3: Specify the conditions under which you would say, yes.

416
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 4: You know it's Sydney's Sydney Sweeney, for example, help with

417
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 4: her bags.

418
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 2: She might need some help. She's got very thin wrisk.

419
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 3: And in case she needs someone to give her mouth

420
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 3: to mouth for out.

421
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 2: Fly you never know, she might have a panic attack.

422
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: Could talk through it.

423
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 4: I could give her a paper bag and said, look, Sydney,

424
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 4: just breathe, relax.

425
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 3: Is that the only time you would.

426
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 2: Do this no, I do that. What's what's the reduction?

427
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 3: It's a variety. I'm happy tea. They are professional. It's

428
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 3: a variety. Sometimes it depends and they I think it's

429
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 3: a three percent surcharge or something that the company itself takes.

430
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 3: But you know, it can be a giant reduction or

431
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 3: someone depending on what's expected of you. If I just

432
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: wanted to fly with someone and have them tickle my

433
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 3: back for the duration, how would that go? Brendan, This

434
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 3: is while it's just supposed to talk.

435
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 4: I'm just shaking my head, and not just because of

436
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 4: the lack of motorcycle parking, but where are you're going?

437
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 3: Okay, if you're going to go back that far, let's

438
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: talk about how my name should be first on the

439
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 3: lea head.

440
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 2: Have we been to the embroider? You can't unpick embroidered.

441
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 3: I carry it when we come pick with me at

442
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 3: all times.

443
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: Once you make a Jones and your mandapollo shit, you

444
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 2: can't go back. And also the acronym is not going

445
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 2: to work. It's jam. It's not going to be madge,

446
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 2: be amadge.

447
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 3: It's not bad. Well should we wrap it up?

448
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 2: Toots?

449
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 3: Are you to say explain how radio war.

450
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: You're saying enough for both of us.

451
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 3: All Right, I'll be quiet and you wrap this up.

452
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 2: Thank you for enjoying our podcast.

453
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 3: This is what If you haven't enjoyed it, cutting room floor,

454
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 3: maybe you should have stayed there.

455
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: That's more than it's worth. Thank you. Crad goes crazy.

456
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 5: That's gotten room.

457
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 2: Here's our cutting room floor.

458
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 3: Have you heard the term glossing.

459
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 2: When you're talking about lipstick, glossing, glossy magazines, glossing over facts.

460
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 3: Well, glossing over how unhappy you are at work. That's

461
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 3: what glossing means, pretending to be fine at work when

462
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 3: you actually aren't. It refers to the excessive optimism to

463
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 3: dismiss difficulties at work, which we often do. We often say, no,

464
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 3: everything's fine, everything's fine, when in fact, by glossing, you

465
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 3: could be doing yourself damage. So this is an interesting study.

466
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 3: This is a quote. Using this coping mechanism can lead

467
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 3: to mistrust, isolation, increased stress, and resentment. So this poll

468
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 3: found that sixty seven percent of workers feel that they

469
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 3: work in a toxic environment. Seventy eight percent of workers

470
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 3: don't think their employer is doing enough to address their

471
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 3: mental wellness at work. But they don't want to reference it.

472
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 3: They don't want to talk about it. Most people will

473
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: say I'm fine and not want you to stir the

474
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 3: pot because it takes a certain person to call out

475
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 3: your office culture for systematic change.

476
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, well it doesn't work well for whistle blowers, does it.

477
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 3: No, it doesn't. And maybe that's exactly what part of

478
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,199
Speaker 3: this is that people are saying, just stay positive. It

479
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 3: could be worse. Everything's all right. But this avoidance means

480
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 3: that your mental health doesn't shift, and it means no

481
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 3: one's aware that you're struggling. It also means that things

482
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 3: that might need to be changed within your office just aren't. Yeah,

483
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 3: so they're saying, look out for that, look out. These

484
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 3: are some of the phrases that people This is how

485
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 3: you might recognize that someone's glossing. They say, to tone

486
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 3: down the positive language, like look out for the over

487
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 3: positive language in somebody. Well, everything's fine, everything's fine. They

488
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 3: go and cry and they can't.

489
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 2: I'm very positive here.

490
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but if you would also you call out what

491
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 3: you see I do and make sure you speak up

492
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 3: on a one on one basis. Don't just hide your dissatisfaction.

493
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 3: Don't dismiss feedback, get rid of the people pleasing. Oh

494
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 3: that's a big problem I have is people pleasing. So

495
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 3: when normal people, I don't care whether I please you.

496
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 4: I haven't been pleased by you for some time. When's

497
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 4: this happening? When when am I going to see these

498
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 4: people pleasing?

499
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 3: But remember we've had these other workplace kind of phrases,

500
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 3: so glossing is this interesting one? Do you remember the

501
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 3: quiet quitting that phrase came about?

502
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was during that was after COVID. People are

503
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 4: just not show up to work.

504
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 3: They shot up to work but not do anything.

505
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 2: They do the move and not sup to work. They'd

506
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: sharp to work, but they just wouldn't do it.

507
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 3: That's right, they'd mentally not show up. They wouldn't bring

508
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 3: their best self. The practice of doing no more work

509
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 3: than one is contractually obliged to. Now we have quick

510
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 3: quit talk.

511
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 2: If you heard of quick took, what's quit talk?

512
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 3: This is live people live quitting their jobs.

513
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 2: On the ABC, they said to be doing that a

514
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 2: lot lately.

515
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:20,199
Speaker 3: Well that's the thing.

516
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 2: In a fully someone could see it in.

517
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 3: ABC has a lot of support.

518
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know that you're greedy and will for the ABC,

519
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 4: But I feel that I I can't go back, I

520
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 4: can't get.

521
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 2: The job there.

522
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: You know, Oh, people, please somewhere else.

523
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 2: Because I'm too good to work at the ABC.

524
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 3: That's the Come on, Brendan, I'm about to do a

525
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 3: whole lot of stuff.

526
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 2: I'm your great on the ABC.

527
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 3: Quittok is live quitting your job in a bid to

528
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 3: bring greater transparency to the goings on in the workplace.

529
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 3: And have you heard of proximity bias? No, she's nice

530
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,479
Speaker 3: proximity as people return to the office, restrictions were lifted,

531
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 3: et cetera. But they're the negative impact of proximity bias

532
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 3: on those who continue to work from home. So how

533
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 3: we feel I'm reading into that. I think it's how

534
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 3: you feel about those that aren't back at the office

535
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 3: and are working from home.

536
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 2: How do you feel?

537
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 3: It was a story this morning about a couple of

538
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 3: girls on the beach at bond and saying, well, if

539
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 3: I'm getting the work done, who cares where I am?

540
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 3: That would drive me crazy?

541
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 4: Interesting take, isn't it? Because when someone says, you go,

542
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 4: where's old mate today? And they say, oh, he's working

543
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 4: from home?

544
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 2: You go here right? That gay in between mowing his

545
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 2: lawns and.

546
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 3: Doing everything all the stuff that the rest of us

547
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 3: have to do on the weekend. Yeah, well, if the

548
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 3: work gets done. But if the work gets done, doesn't matter.

549
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 3: If you're sitting on a beach or sitting in a

550
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 3: cafe all day and patting your dog all day, does

551
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 3: it matter? How can it not? Though, roll up people

552
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 3: that don't get a chance to do that. How can

553
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 3: it not? We're human being.

554
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 2: I remember when I worked down the Snow many years ago.

555
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 2: I was the DJ down at the Snow Were you

556
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 2: BJ the DJ no and part of that roll.

557
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 4: Everyone got very jealous because at the time it was

558
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 4: nineteen eighty seven. I would get three hundred dollars a

559
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 4: week in the hand and also my food and board

560
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 4: was covered.

561
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 3: With Wow, that's amazing.

562
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 2: And all I had to do.

563
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 4: Was just be in the nightclub from six to I

564
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 4: think three in the morning, which it was a long day.

565
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 2: But I have to do a little kid's disco as well.

566
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 4: But the other people, other executives, because I was also

567
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 4: what they call a blue coat, we all got to

568
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 4: wear these blue coats.

569
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 2: Because I was the head of my department. I was

570
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 2: the only DJ there.

571
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 3: You're also the lowest of your department.

572
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 4: And so all the other people, like the matre d

Speaker 4: was part of.

576
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: This big blue coat team, and they didn't like it

577
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 2: at all.

578
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 4: So they went to the boss, who quite liked me,

579
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 4: because what's not to like? I unlike you people pleased

00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 4: to everyone, He said, I leave the kiddle lad, and

Speaker 4: vacuum the nightclub.

587
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 2: And so that was the thing and I went. At first,

588
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 2: I was out.

589
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 3: It's like lord of the flo I got.

590
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 2: I got so good at vacuuming, and I got this

Speaker 2: good wet and dry vacuum, so it was just and

00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 4: the thing and they just run around like nuts. And

597
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 4: then one of those kids saw me vacuuming the bar

598
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 4: area and could I go. Yeah, it was like Tom

599

Speaker 4: Sawy's fence. All these kids were having to go with

600
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 4: the vacuum. So I just sat there back and watched

601
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 4: the kids.

602
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 3: Doing the blue coat loving yourself.

603
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 4: I remember the matro T just came down and he

604
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 4: looked in and he just went muttered something out of

605
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 4: his breath under his breath and just walked down.

606
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 3: Good time.

607
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 2: That's what happens when you're a people pleaser. You should

608
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 2: take a.

609
00:27:55,800 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 6: Leaf room flow.

610
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 2: Well, it's our podcast. What ended up on the cutting

611
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 2: room floor today?

612
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 3: Man, Well, as we sip our cup of soups, let's

613
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 3: look at what has ended up on the cutting room floor.

614
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 3: What about this story a woman I'll read the headline.

615
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 3: A woman who did not get a leaving card loses

616
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 3: a UK employment claim. So this woman has sued her

617
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 3: former employer for not giving her a leaving card. She

618
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: lost the case because it was revealed it had been

619
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 3: hidden from her because only three people signed it. She claimed,

620
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 3: quote you wonder how this could end up in court,

621
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 3: that there'd be any claim. She claimed that quote The

622
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 3: failure to acknowledge her existence, I e. Give her a

623
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 3: leaving card was a breach of a quality law. Then

624
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 3: a former colleague told an employment tribunal that the managers

625
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,239
Speaker 3: had indeed brought a card but didn't give it to

626
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 3: her because only three people had signed it, and they

627
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 3: deemed that would be more consulting. Do you give her

628
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 3: a card that three people had signed than no card

629
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 3: at all?

630
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: Well, it depends.

631
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 4: Was the card circulated to people? Do we know that

632
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 4: part of the story.

633
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 3: No, But the fact that this claim was turned down

634
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 3: tells me that that's the truth of it.

635
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 2: Well, it speaks volumes about this woman, doesn't it.

636
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 3: But you know what it's like. We can ask to

637
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 3: sign birthday cards to people that we don't know, and

638
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 3: you're leaving card.

639
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: I signed that just before?

640
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 3: What? But I like how you just put rock on Jonesy.

641
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 3: You could be signing a letter for the Pope, for

642
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 3: a child who's requested this for you because they're unwell

643
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 3: for top management, you put the same thing, rock on

644
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: jones is.

645
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 2: My wife's birthday. The other day I started to write

646
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: rock on and thanks for listening.

647
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 4: And the funniest part is she doesn't listen. That's the

648
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 4: funniest part of it.

649
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 3: She rock on. That's all we need to know.

650
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: It's been sometimes she'd see that.

651
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 4: You know, one time I left a radio station and

652
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 4: not saying that I'm very popular, but they had to

653
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 4: get a j ginormous core flute. So because everyone wanted to

654
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 4: sign it.

655
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 3: Give us your sign, don't you give us your cake theory?

656
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 3: The cake theory is someone's birthday.

657
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 4: That indicates how popular that you are is how much

658
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 4: cake is left?

659
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 2: And what happens with me when it's my birthday?

660
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 4: They have to get like a wedding cake, many tears,

661
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 4: forty wedding cake because there's not enough to go around.

662
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 4: Because everyone wants to be a part of the j man.

663
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 4: What's happening for his birthday? I know for you they

664
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 4: bing out a cupcake.

665
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 3: None of all, none of this theory is true, and

666
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 3: none of the reality of what you're saying is true either.

667
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 4: Though.

668
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 3: If someone has a birthday and there's some left, because

669
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 3: often girls don't want to eat chocolate cake at nine am,

670
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 3: it may surprise you to hear what's.

671
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 2: Wrong with them?

672
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 3: You go lor you're popular, You tell them to their

673
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 3: face your theory. It's terrible.

674
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 4: Well, I've seen many people like you walking out of

675
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 4: the building, you know, with three quarters of a cake.

676
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 2: It's wasteful.

677
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 3: What about this other story, I'm just sending an unwonted

678
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 3: birthday card to a colleague could be seen as harassment.

679
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 3: Real another UK case, a woman in the UK has

680
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 3: told a tribunal she repeatedly contacted She was repeatedly contacted

681
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 3: by her bosses while she was on leave for work

682
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 3: related stress. This is probably those new rules they're trying

683
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 3: to bring in here too, that you can't contact someone

684
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 3: out of work hours, But she said she also was

685
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 3: given numerous emails while she was on work related stress

686
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:36,120
Speaker 3: leave and an unwanted birthday card. She says that she

687
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 3: had told them on a number of reason a number

688
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 3: of occasions, that she would not be celebrating for personal reasons,

689
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 3: and asked her to be kept off the list that

690
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 3: the boss kept of employees' birthdays. The boss apologized and

691
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 3: claimed he'd remove her name from the list. However, in

692
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,479
Speaker 3: the following weeks, she was sent eleven emails as well

693
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 3: as a birthday card. So she contacted the tribunal because

694
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 3: she said that this exacerbated her symptoms and the judge

695
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: said the repeated contact created a hostile and intimidating environment

696
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 3: for the claimant.

697
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 4: Next to bringing your pet into work, having a birthday

698
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 4: at work is the biggest time waster in the history

699
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 4: of the world.

700
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 3: That's how people love it. I like it when it's

701
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 3: someone else's birthday and we all get to say I

702
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 3: hate it, and it destroys all the momentum that you're doing,

703
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 3: the work that you're doing.

704
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 2: Everyone has to stop down.

705
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 4: My sister is an airline pilot and when she was pregnant,

706
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 4: they don't let pregnant women fly planes because something about

707
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 4: hormonal stuff and things like that.

708
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 2: Anyway, is that what I believe? So yeah, I believe.

709
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 4: So. Anyway, she was in the office at work. They

710
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 4: put her in the office just to do admin jury duties,

711
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 4: and she said, it's the most boring thing in the

712
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 4: world because there's nothing else in trying to find things

713
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 4: to do. And then one day she was watching a

714
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 4: birthday celebration. She's like, hang on a minute, this is

715
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 4: a classic time waster because you look at it, right,

716
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 4: You've got to get the cake, got to.

717
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 3: Get a card, get so you've got to.

718
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 2: Leave the building. You get the cake. You got to

719
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: there's a hole and get plates. Plates. You've got to

720
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 2: gather everyone as napkins.

721
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 3: You have to take a card around to be signed.

722
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 4: Then the speech is made, and then the awkward chatter

723
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 4: as you're eating cake. If you really play your cards right,

724
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 4: you could get an hour out of birthday cake organization.

725
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 2: And Anita did this for everyone in the office.

726
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 4: And I don't think she did a minute of work

727
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 4: while she was grounded in that.

728
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 3: Office's birthday brigade.

729
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 4: And then you would think when her birthday came round

730
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 4: it would be a fest.

731
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 2: No nothing.

732
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 3: She was the one who had done it all.

733
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 4: Because she was pregnant. She went into an emotional meltdown.

734
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 4: That's probably because she wasn't flying.

735
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 2: That plate cutting room for what ended up on the

736
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 2: cutting room floor today.

737
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 3: Manda, let's talk about earring magic Ken Ken. Do you

738
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 3: remember earing magic Ken?

739
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 6: No?

740
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 2: I don't well.

741
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 3: Earing a lot of the old Kens and Barbies have

742
00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 3: come into parlance again because of the Barbie I remember

743
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 3: they are featured in the Barbie movie. There's gift giving can,

744
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,279
Speaker 3: there's you know, Pashworthy can, There's grow his own beard can.

745
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 3: There's all that kind of stuff. But earring magic can

746
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 3: has become the stuff of legend for decades. Mattel have

747
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 3: kind of distanced themselves from what many people saw as

748
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 3: it obviously gay. Ken doll, I'll talk you through what

749
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 3: he was.

750
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 2: Well, when you look at Ken, he's pretty gay, isn't he.

751
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 3: How do you make a doll that isn't How do

752
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 3: you make a doll that doesn't look like that?

753
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

754
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: Well, earing magic can came about as an accessory to

755
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 3: earring magic Barbie in nineteen ninety three. But Barbie's Barbie,

756
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 3: I'm sure looked great with her. She had like a

757
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 3: charm around her neck. What Ken was wearing was a

758
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 3: lavender mesh shirt, a purple pleathor vest, baggy jeans, black loafers,

759
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 3: and on a chain around his neck a ring that's

760
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 3: supposed to be a charm that can go on your

761
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 3: own bracelet. But for many people in the gay community,

762
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 3: it looked like a sexual aid.

763
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 2: A sexual aid.

764
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 3: What do you mean, oh, you know exactly what? A

765
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 3: ring that can be used in a sexual act for

766
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 3: a man?

767
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 2: Where do you put it.

768
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 3: Around your neck? On a charm? Brenda?

769
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 2: What pleasure would that give anyone? Wouldn't you just put

770
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 2: it on your Dick.

771
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 3: So earing Magic Can when he was in the movie.

772
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 3: He was in the movie The Barbie Movie, but he

773
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 3: just had a Barbie necklace. He didn't have the big ring, right,

774
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 3: So Mattel has distance some of themselves from Can. Have

775
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,240
Speaker 3: a look at the picture. It looks like Dolph Lungdren

776
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 3: in a gay film, like up the Gay on Dolph?

777
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 2: Is that a movie title up for gay on dop So.

778
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 3: What's interesting is that apparently Hell did a survey in

779
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 3: the early nineties or the nineteen nineties. They thought they

780
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 3: did a survey to discover that men that girls didn't

781
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,399
Speaker 3: think can look cool enough. So someone had the bright

782
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 3: idea of researching coolness by sending people to the raves,

783
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,879
Speaker 3: which at the time was mostly gay men. So these

784
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 3: people went home from the raves and said, here's what

785
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,879
Speaker 3: men are wearing. Yep, and wow, that's what now Ken

786
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 3: is wearing. So they've discontinued the doll. The company won't

787
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 3: comment on the queer coded aspects of Ken's costume, and

788
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 3: when asked point blank, Mattel have denied it, saying, no,

789
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 3: it's a necklace around his neck. It holds charms he

790
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 3: can share with Barbie. Come on they've said, this is

791
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 3: a doll designed for little girls. Something like that would

792
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 3: be entirely inappropriate. So this sold game buses. It's the

793
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 3: highest rating, highest selling Ken ever because gay men bought it.

794
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 3: It ran off the shelves because it became a hilarious

795
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:55,879
Speaker 3: thing for them to own.

796
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 2: Well, I got a mind. He looks like the seventh

797
00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 2: member of Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

798
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is continued by the end of nineteen ninety three,

799
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 3: along with the rest of the Earring Magic collection. But yeah,

800
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 3: this is a collector's item. I'm assuming I don't know

801
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 3: whether Ken's ever still in the box. It'd be worth

802
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 3: a lot of money if he was.

803
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 2: If he got in there. Okay, kids, that's it for today.

804
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: Come back to Martha Bard of Jonesy and Amanda's cutting

805
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 1: room for
