I think well, my dad grew up playing in 58 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: a jazz band with his brothers up on the farm 59 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: on your peninsula, and he always loved music. So as 60 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: long as I can remember, we've always had music in 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: our family, more of like a New Orleans sort of 62 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: jazz style, and we used to go and watch Dad 63 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: play it, like the Days on the Greens and stuff 64 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: with his jazz band Gumbo ya Ya. You should check 65 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: him out. And I remember seeing them on Hey Hey 66 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: at Saturday for the first time when we were kids, 67 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: and it was so cool seeing Dad on TV. I 68 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: don't know if you remember that show. Yeah, so we 69 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: used to always watch Dad and growing up, and we 70 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: were it was a massive privilege when we turned seven 71 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: that we were allowed to learn a musical instrument. Although 72 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: I think Georgia started violin when she was four, so 73 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: h yeah, and I wanted to play the cell. I 74 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: saw the girl on the ABC I'd playing the cell 75 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I want to learn that. So we 76 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: were really that was something that was a massive privilege 77 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: for us, and we learned all through school and used 78 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: to do performances for our grandparents. And Mom used to 79 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: enter us in like a Stedfords and then make us 80 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: buskin harmed or for lolli money like not maker. She 81 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: used to dress us up in old fashioned clothes and 82 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: we used to just say yes to whatever our parents 83 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: asked us to do. But we obviously enjoyed it. And 84 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: I think we made like ten bucks or something like 85 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: in a couple of hours and bought like lollies. But 86 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: back then you could buy everything like twenty cents apples 87 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: and things like that. So I think our brother ended 88 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,839 Speaker 1: up handing out lavender bunches and got the equal cut. 89 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: Thought that was pretty unfair, but yeah. So, yeah, we've 90 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: been playing music our whole life and then did it 91 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: all through school and then my youngest sister, Georgia, she 92 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: always had the biggest passion for it, and everyone was like, oh, 93 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: you guys will play music, you should write do a 94 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: band together, and yeah ended up. Yeah, yeah, ten years later, 95 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: we're still doing it. But it's been really fun. So, yeah, 96 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: I traveled a lot and seen lots of things, had 97 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: some ups and downs. Is no doubt we'd probably talk 98 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: about today. 99 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, that was good and as well as obviously 100 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 2: being in the Jermain it's Jermaine. 101 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: Now, it's just Jermaine now. We were Jamaine's sisters, but 102 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: we were like, people know we're sisters and they can 103 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: find out we're sisters regardless. But yeah, people still asked 104 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: us if we were sisters when we were called Jermaine's sisters, 105 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: and we're like, we would pretty but we're probably not 106 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: like you guys were you look really alike? That's all right? Yeah, 107 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: well you. 108 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 2: Also are on Totally Wild. We were on Totally Wild. 109 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: How did you manage both music and obviously journalism. 110 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was always a massive dream of mine 111 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: to be on Totally Wild. That was like the dream 112 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: job when I was a kid growing up, because I 113 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: absolutely door animal was probably an unhealthy obsession with animals, 114 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: but yeah, growing up on a farm, we had lots 115 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: of pets growing up, but I absolutely loved media and 116 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: TV and film and all that sort of thing, So 117 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: combining the two was really the dream job. And I 118 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: applied when I was in year twelve, and I didn't 119 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: realize it was a full time job. I thought it 120 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: was just like, oh, you just do it on the weekends, 121 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: and I got shortlisted and then ended up realizing it 122 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: was I was still at school so I couldn't do that, 123 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: not that I was selected anyway, And then I think 124 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: I auditioned two or three more times because I just 125 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: I was like, no, I'm going to do it one day, 126 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: and I did a film and TV course and did 127 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: lots and lots of free presenting work in work experience 128 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: all through UNI and then ended up getting the job 129 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: out of I think it was about six hundred girls. 130 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: The producer said so. And then the next week I 131 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: was moved up to Brisbane and started up there. So 132 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: that was a massive Yeah, that was a big part 133 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: of my life that I was super proud of, but 134 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: also came to a bit of a crossroads because we'd 135 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: just been booked a tour of China and also Germany, 136 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: so I obviously couldn't do both. But they were really 137 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: good with me and let me go away for those trips. 138 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: But in the end I sort of had to make 139 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: that choice. But I had an amazing time with the 140 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: crew at Channel ten and they were really lucky. I 141 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: was really lucky sorry, to be able to come back 142 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: as a freelancer back in Adelaide between tours and met 143 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: lots of friends there as well, So it was really 144 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: really good experience. And yeah, it was tough though, definitely 145 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: on the band that time, because yeah, it was two 146 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: amazing opportunities and I sort of had to choose which 147 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: one to do. But yeah, I was lucky enough to 148 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,119 Speaker 1: keep going with the presenting and yeah and still doing music. 149 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, and talking about your bandmates, I can understand 150 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: being you know, even just working on this podcast with 151 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: Sophie and Kate, we have the odd argument, Yeah, what 152 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: is it actually like writing a song. 153 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: With your Well, Georgia has always been she's extremely talented, 154 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: has always been the songwriter in the group, and she 155 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: is really really skilled at that sort of thing, and 156 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: we all sort of bring our own sort of vibe 157 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: to it. But in the last couple of years we've 158 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: probably had a bit more input with it, especially recently. 159 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: That was sort of the aim for this year to 160 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: do a lot more songwriting together. So I think, I 161 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: think it's such a personal thing, and you've been really 162 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: vulnerable when you're writing songs because it can be anything 163 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: from a relationship or something you've experienced or seen firsthand, 164 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: and bringing that to your sisters, Like, we're all very 165 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: we all get along super well, but we also have 166 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: our own private like things going on as well, So 167 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: opening up to each other sometimes can be a bit scared. 168 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys are the same, would 169 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: you say or maybe. 170 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: Think, Yeah, sometimes there's parts of your life that you 171 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: do want to keep separate and private, perhaps with relationships. 172 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you luck you guys are so different though, Yeah. 173 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so we've all I think we've all got 174 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: different and so it's quite a vulnerable thing. So it's 175 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: sort of scary coming to the grief and being like, oh, 176 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: I wrote this song and then we're like, oh, is 177 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: that about someone? 178 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 2: So? 179 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, recently we've just sort of had to nip 180 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: that in the button. Yeah, just you know, and it's 181 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: and as you get older, I think you become less 182 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: scared about that stuff, and the more you keep doing things, 183 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: it's not as scary, like it's always scary the first time. 184 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, we have had a few arguments, but we 185 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: like you guys would be the same. Like I think 186 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: there's no better team than working with your family sometimes 187 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: because you do go off the charts, like probably yelling 188 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: or whatever, but then you'll like, now a lady, you'll 189 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: probably say sorry, or you'll just move on and be like, oh, 190 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: what's for dinner? Like you know what I mean. So, 191 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: especially when we've been touring on the road for up 192 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: to a couple of weeks and even months, like sharing 193 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: beds and not having any privacy, you just sort of 194 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: you just get so used to it and there's no 195 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: other way than to just get on. So, yeah, how. 196 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 3: Did the dynamics work there? 197 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: Because I know with three it's kind of hard because 198 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: two tend to gang up. 199 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: Do you guys have that issroom? 200 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, I don't know. Like I always feel like 201 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, middle child syndrome because I'm the middle 202 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: out of the three of us, but we're only like 203 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: fourteen months apart anyway. But uh, sometimes I think it 204 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: depends like I don't like to be too early to things, 205 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: whereas the girls like to be nice and early and prepared, 206 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: which is actually probably the best way to be. But 207 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: I get too nervous, Like for instance, where we were 208 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: doing the Little Mix tour, we had fifteen shows with them, 209 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: and we were always the girls. We made sure we 210 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: were at stage at least twenty five minutes thirty minutes beforehand, 211 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: just to prep and be aware of the space, which 212 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 1: is really good. But for me, I get so nervous 213 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: just standing still. I need to be busy, so I'm 214 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: like backstage just pacing around and doing exercises and stretches 215 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: and just thinking about something else because I just don't 216 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: like being too early. So I think they get annoyed 217 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: with me with that. But yeah, I think we all 218 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: have our strengths and weaknesses, but yeah, not too much 219 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: ganging up, which is good. And we have our Tom manager, Bethany, 220 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: who's from Canada as well, and she sort of even 221 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: that out as well. So there's four of us girls 222 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: in the road, so it's good now. 223 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: And as you touched on before, you guys have recently 224 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: come off touring with Little Mix and you're also toured 225 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 2: with Roan and Keating. Yeah, how did those opportunities come about? 226 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: Yeah? We were super lucky, like but also like through 227 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: a lot of hard work, and I think we've always said, like, 228 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: if you put yourself in an opportunity, things can happen. 229 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: So we Yeah, like we started by traveling overseas. We 230 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: record our first alb in Ireland with the guy that 231 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: produced The Cause because they have three sisters and someone's like, 232 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: you should do that, and that was ended up being amazing. 233 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: We made so many friendships through that and then ends 234 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: up going to Germany and then Mom used to always 235 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: Mum was our manager and she still does a lot 236 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: of management duties for us now. She's very Chris Jenner, 237 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: but maybe not as glamorous, but she's still lovely and 238 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: sweet and makes lots of muffins for all the radio 239 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: stations and we go through She's she's amazing though, and 240 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: she's she's been one of probably the best influencers in 241 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: our lives with just keeping so supportive and she's always 242 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: been there for us like some parents are like, go 243 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: off to UNI and get a proper job. But she's like, no, 244 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: like being a musician. I'm like, Mom, it's so hard. 245 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: She's like it's okay, and she she's always been so 246 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: proud and supportive of us so and she used to say, like, 247 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: the worst someone can say is no, so why she 248 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: used to just email everyone She's like, Hey, you've got 249 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: this amazing girl band from Australia. How would you like 250 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: them on your festival? And this fellow one day was like, 251 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, sorry, this fella, this guy that's amazing. He's 252 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: been an amazing support for us. Runs a big festival 253 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: called the Islawight in the UK, and he he was like, yeah, sure, 254 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: why not. And then through that he put us in 255 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: contact over the next couple of years with their little 256 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: mix and Ronan keating and yeah, through that, it's just 257 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: sort of built from there. So we're just really really lucky. 258 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, you sort of have to just put yourself 259 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 1: in those situations to get noticed, and like, you never 260 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: know who's in the audience. We Mum used to always 261 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: say that, even when we were playing to like three people, 262 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: like a old cub or something like that, you never 263 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: know who's there. But it's really true, like a lot 264 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: of the things and a lot of our successes has 265 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: come from just you know, keep going and keep going. 266 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: It's always going to be hard, but you're never losing 267 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: if you're still in the race. Like as soon as 268 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: you quit, that's when it stops. But yeah, so I 269 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: think our tour managers always say you never lose if 270 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: you don't. 271 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 3: Quit, but that's so true. 272 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: Or you know there's one yes, yeah, yeah, that's it. 273 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 3: So what was Little Mix? 274 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, work with it was amazing. It was so surreal, 275 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: like we've never done a tour of that level before. 276 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: Roadin Keating was amazing. But we did that in Germany 277 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: and we did Boys as well in Australia New Zealand 278 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: and they were such lovely guys and Little Mix were 279 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: lovely as well. But yeah, it was It was huge 280 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: because we were playing from anywhere between fifteen thousand to 281 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: thirty two thousand a night and just the go go 282 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: go over all was crazy. But yeah, they were really 283 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 1: lovely and like, yeah, they obviously it's a lot different 284 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: to what people think, like everyone was like, oh, you're 285 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: hanging out and this and that, but because they're the 286 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: main act. They've got a lot to worry about, so 287 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: they've got to you know, get all their they call 288 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: it glam when they get all their hair and makeup 289 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: done and also do all their voice warm ups and 290 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: things like that, and they have to prepare for their 291 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: show as well. So we definitely saw them around and 292 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: probably more towards the end of the tour when things 293 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: got a bit more relaxed. But they all had their dogs, 294 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: which we thought was so cool because in Australia you 295 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: can't really have dogs inside, but they all had all 296 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: their cute pooches running around and Perry has this little 297 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: dog called Hatchie that used to rot around your legs, 298 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: so that was cool. And then there was another band 299 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: called Ratsu who were awesome. They were like kind of 300 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: like a boy hip hop kind of band, so we 301 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: hung out with them ben they were awesome. So it 302 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: was just cool, like meeting all these people and even 303 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: not even the bandmates, but the crew as well, like 304 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: the people that do the sound and the lighting and 305 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: the production, and even the caterers, Like we'd have the 306 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: same caterers each day. We're like, oh, that's for dessert. 307 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: That was probably our highlight of the tour actually is 308 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: like we had never tried butoffee pie before, so each 309 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: day we would just always so excited to get off 310 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: stage and go eat dessert, which is really sad but 311 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: it was also cool. 312 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like you've also got to share your 313 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 2: little mixed story about the break up. 314 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: No, no, yeah, for sure, Like I always say, like, 315 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: it's yeah, like whenever people were embarrassed about things, I'm like, 316 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: there's always probably gonna be one story that is your 317 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: most embarrassing, So anything that happens after that it's not 318 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: as bad. And this was my embarrassing story that I 319 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: would never live down. But nothing ever I get boried 320 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: as much about stuff because oh there was two things 321 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: that happened on that tour.

I 337 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: definitely wasn't drunk or anything, but I was just sort 338 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: of like just a bit more relaxed than usual probably, 339 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: and this club was really cool. But I had one 340 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: of those hidden steps. I don't know if you guys 341 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: have been, you know when you just trip on something small. Yeah, anyway, 342 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: I saw the little mixed girls and I'm like goth 343 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: and say hey and say thanks for having us on 344 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: the tour and had a chat and then I turn 345 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: around and I'm holding my glass and I just this 346 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: little step comes and I just completely face cramped. Like 347 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: it was like the worst stack you could ever see, 348 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: and like I just remember it. No one was around, 349 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: so that's even worse. So you can't, like, you know, 350 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: when you just want to like laugh with someone and 351 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: be like how funny. But no one was around. They 352 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: sort of and they would already like we're about ten 353 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: meters away, so they were a little bit too far 354 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: to help me up. And then I think some of 355 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: the backup dancers came up and they're like, oh, you're okay. 356 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: And then there's the security guard who was he was 357 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: like crying with luck. I was so scared of him 358 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: the whole tour, but he was actually like a big 359 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: teddy bear. But he came up and he was like 360 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: bawling with laughing. He's like, there's a step there, and 361 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: I was like I know, and he's like, but you 362 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: didn't spill your prosecco, so that's good because it was 363 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: literally one of those yeah, horrible stacks. And then I 364 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: just quickly ran back to the booth where we were 365 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: and I'm like no, But also because I think I'd 366 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: had a couple of drinks. Yeah, celebrationary drinks. We don't 367 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: on it every night. Just to put a little disclosure 368 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: in there, but yeah, I think I wasn't as worried, 369 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: and then we hit the dance floor off and had 370 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: a really good night and then we had to laugh 371 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: about it. The next day we had to have our 372 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: press photo with the girls and they're like, yeah, we 373 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: saw you for we hope you were okay.

I was just like, what do you know what 382 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: the amount of things that have happened to me on stage, 383 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: like when I have kicked because I like to move 384 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: around if anyone's seen us play before or if you 385 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: ever do see us, I like to have a bit 386 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: of a boogie prop a little bit too much. And yeah, 387 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: I'm very commonly kick the cord out of my bass. 388 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: So then the sound stops and like the sound's not working. 389 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the sound and guy like what's happening? 390 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: And we're getting meanwhile filmed on these huge TV screens 391 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: like out towards the crowd, and then I think someone 392 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: was in the front row and they like, literally did 393 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: that plug it in? Like it's fallen out, and I 394 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: was like oops, And so I'm just like dancing back 395 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: to the cord and plugging it back in. But yeah, 396 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: and so that was, Yeah, that was another embarrassing moment. 397 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: At least you've owned them, yeah, completely, well, especially on 398 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: Totally Wild, that was actually probably one of the best 399 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: preparing things for what it was next to come in, 400 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: like my life with the career and stuff, because you're 401 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: made to do the most silly things and act like 402 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: a complete full on TV. But the sillier and corner 403 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: is I remember one of the guys, Seamus, he was 404 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: one of the other presenters. He's like, the more corneer 405 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: you are, the funnier is for kids and stuff. So 406 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: that was always good advice and ever since, like then, 407 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: I think you just kind of like, oh, just own 408 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: it and go with it because whatever. 409 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, now, not that we're talking about particularly glamorous moments 410 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: for you. 411 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I suppose a lot of people would. 412 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 2: Look at your Instagram and to see all the amazing 413 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: things you've been doing. Could you talk us through a 414 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 2: little bit, I suppose about what the reality of being 415 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: on a tour in the UK actually is. 416 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, Yeah, it's it definitely is an amazing adventure. 417 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: But it's not always like I do a lot of 418 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: Jermaine's Instagram and obviously my own as well, And I 419 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: absolutely love photography, but so I try and take beautiful 420 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: photos wherever we are because I'm not I never know 421 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: when I'll be back there again, so it's more as 422 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: a bit of a memory as well, not trying to 423 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: be showing off like, oh, this is where we are today, 424 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know. 425 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well Instagram's always the highlight, really. 426 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, oh but definitely yeah, sorry, Like behind the 427 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: scenes for sure, it's definitely like hard. Like we're usually 428 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: in a like a van for most of them, and 429 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: we're all crabbed in the back. Sometimes if it's a 430 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: small car and we've only got a small too, we'll 431 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: have like drum kits on our laps and things like that. 432 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 3: So do you fly that all over? 433 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: We usually hire them, but we have all our gear 434 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: and suitcases as well, so usually it's really annoying. I 435 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: don't know how you girls would go doing it if 436 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: you like traveling with lots of because I love traveling 437 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: lots of outfits and things to wear, but the girls 438 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: are very streets. That's another thing. The sisters do it 439 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: like I usually go over with the luggage, but they've 440 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: probably been proud of me. In the last couple of years, 441 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: I've bit better. But yeah, just yeah, like the instruments 442 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: get priority over wait in luggage, so you just have 443 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: to be very smart traveler else you've got more to carry. 444 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's definitely it's not as glamorous as 445 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: what people definitely think. And you know, especially in Germany, 446 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: there's nothing you were asking if there was a few 447 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: funny stories, but yeah, a lot of the venue, especially 448 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: when we first started touring Germany, they usually have accommodation included, 449 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: and some have been really nice hotels and things, and 450 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: other times it might be someone's house, which we learned 451 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: with a few of them.

So I call them 493 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,959 Speaker 1: the Chippies because we were saying how much we love 494 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: hot Chips, and then every time we see this hot 495 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: chip guy, we all send each other a photo because 496 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: it's like this hot chip man that stands I don't 497 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: know if you've seen. He looks like he's almost smoking. 498 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 3: I think I know who you mean. 499 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, we call him mister Chippy. Whenever we see him 500 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: wherever over the well, like whether it's in Germany or 501 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: the UK or Australia, we're like, oh, we found mister Chippy. 502 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: Like it's a weird thing that we all do. But 503 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: also they they're so sweet and lovely. And we've also 504 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: got some guys as well, these two twin guys. Actually 505 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: they're amazing. They go to every single Little Mix show 506 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: and they came to all of our shows as well, 507 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: and they give us like little presents and just they're 508 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: all so sweet. When we were in this ed Sheeran 509 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: competition to open for him, we got into the grand 510 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: final and one of the girls came to the show 511 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: and she brought us this book all filled with beautiful 512 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: notes and photos from like all the chippies and all 513 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: the group. Well, so it was so amazing because sometimes 514 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: I guess like especially with social media or if you're 515 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: not playing shows, you don't really feel like you have 516 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: that connection with fans. And we more see them as 517 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: friends as well, because we all give them hugs and 518 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: stuff and we see them and it's always just so 519 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: we were so glad when we see them at shows, 520 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: because like it can be very unfamiliar over in the 521 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 1: UK and a country that we've never been to before, 522 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: so all like we have been but don't have many 523 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: friends and things like that. So when we see these 524 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: guys come to our shows and out to like even 525 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: our Christmas shows, it's so special for us, and yeah, 526 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: just seeing them grow and support each other, and they've 527 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: even started some of their own social channels helping each 528 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: other out, and like they're all going through teenage issues 529 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: which we've been through and still probably go through similar 530 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: kind of things. So I love like helping out with 531 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: advice and then they give each other advice and have 532 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: this great support system. So that's probably been one of 533 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: the most coolest and most probably special things about the group. 534 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: Like whether we go massive or not or just keep 535 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 1: doing what we're doing, I think like, yeah, if anything, 536 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: we're just so happy and so proud of these girls 537 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: and yeah, glad that we can be an influence on 538 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: them as well. And they're like yeah, and it's they're 539 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: inspiring to us and make us keep going and we're 540 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: having those tough days as well. 541 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 3: So is it Did I see it correctly? 542 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 2: Did one of them get a tattoo of domain on them? 543 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 2: That I think I saw it one of your instant stories. 544 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: I was like, wow, that's yeah, Yeah, that's so cool. Yeah, 545 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: Like I think I know there was one girl that 546 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: was gonna get one done and I think she did. 547 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah she did, Oh Charlie, Yeah, yeah from Germany.

I think we've sat 550 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: on that logo now so I think they're good. I 551 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: know we've gone through a few different texts. 552 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 3: On it, sisters. 553 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: At the end of it now, I felt the pressure 554 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: to keep it that. That's obviously an amazing supporter there. 555 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: But do you have any fans that have gone a 556 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: little bit too far? He stood itstalk affairs. 557 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: No, nothing that's made us uncomfortable. There's like, there's one 558 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: fella in Germany who's called sweat Span and his family, 559 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: so they were really die hard from the first moment 560 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: they saw us when we were like you now, Like 561 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 1: I think we were nineteen or twenty when we first 562 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: went to Germany and they came to the show, like 563 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: not knowing us at all, and this guy decided he's 564 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 1: going to be out. Then he's been so amazing, Like 565 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: over the years, he gets a photo with us at 566 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: each gig, and then he'll get a T shirt printed 567 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: with each gig that he's been to, and every time 568 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: he comes to another gig, he'll add another date to 569 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: this T shirt or make more T shirts and recently 570 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: we're in Germany. He all gave us a T shirt 571 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: of each other because he's like, I always wear a 572 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: T shirt of you, So here's sorry, this is a 573 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: really bad accent, but here's. 574 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 3: A T shirt. 575 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: He's a T shirt of like you guys that you 576 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: can wear.

So it's cool having these people 582 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: all over the world that we've met prem MWS and yeah, 583 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: like we've just been so lucky and a lot of 584 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: people have been so generous as well, because it's definitely 585 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: an industry where it's got ups and downs financially and 586 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: just like the mental strain of it and sometimes not 587 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: always staying at hotels can be hard. So we've got 588 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: a lot of places that sorry, some lovely people that 589 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: have helped us out with accommodation or let us stay 590 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: in their homes and things like that to give us 591 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 1: more of that home family vibe. So there's a beautiful 592 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: couple in the UK that put us up for a 593 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: bit as well, and then a guy in Germany and 594 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: all over the place. So if anyone's listening, thank you 595 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: for that. So yeah, it's been great that home noiy 596 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: from home kind of thing. 597 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 2: We're talking about the fans. We do have some questions, Yeah, 598 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 2: the fans that they've sent in, So I think we'll 599 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 2: probably get to them because obviously they want these answered. Sure, 600 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 2: So one lovely fan wrote, what's your advice to keeping 601 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 2: anxiety onto control? 602 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. I'm a huge suffer of anxiety. I 603 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: think I've been since a young child. Like I used 604 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: to hate performing and would always cry before going on 605 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 1: stage when I was a kid, which is quite strange 606 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: that I'm doing this now. I ever would have thought that. 607 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: But when TV, Yeah, I know it's so weird. I 608 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: think I always wanted to but I was just so 609 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: shy and stage fright. There's a video of me crying 610 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: in a cloud costume with a cloud makeup on, like 611 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: I was like happy the cloud, like writing off stage 612 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: at ten years old. But yeah, I think like over 613 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: the years it's and it's something that everyone goes through. 614 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: But it's just about handling it, and I've just learned 615 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: it's about how you sort of control the situation yourself. 616 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: Like sometimes things are so out of your control you 617 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: can't do anything about it. But the best thing you 618 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: can do is sort of just think about things that 619 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: you can control and think about the emotions that you 620 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: can control. But yeah, like for me on tour, I 621 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: get extremely lonely. Like a lot of people, see, you're 622 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: so busy and you're always around people, but sometimes you 623 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: get home and you have no one to call, and 624 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: if you're not in a relationship, you don't have that 625 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: special person to you know, just have a chat to 626 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: which I absolutely love people how my day ors and things. 627 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: But if you don't have that, you can become extremely lonely. 628 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: But I think it's just sort of making you enough 629 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: and thinking of things that make you happy. So yeah, 630 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: I think, and just doing things that distract you. Like 631 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: for me, i'd go for a walk or like, because 632 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 1: I love photography, I'd go out and find something different. 633 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: To you just really immerse yourself in the different areas 634 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: that you're out. But yeah, I think, Yeah, anxiety is 635 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: a hard one because it's a different case. It's different 636 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: for everybody. But I think just taking big breaths and 637 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: just thinking what you can control, think of the good 638 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: things in your life, how happy and how lucky you are, 639 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: just to be alive and just to be able to 640 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: do what you do. And then also helping other people, 641 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: maybe talking to someone else that has anxiety, because I 642 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: think when you realize the more people that have it, 643 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: you can share your stories. You realize you're not alone 644 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: and everyone's got their problems. Like I remember reading something, 645 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: if everyone through their problems in a pile and saw 646 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: everyone else, they'd probably take theirs back because yeah, they 647 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: you know, each to their own. So yeah, that's probably 648 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: my best advice. 649 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 2: And it's a hard one, isn't it though, because I 650 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 2: feel like so many people have anxiety or go through 651 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: anxious thoughts. Because even I'm always one of those people 652 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: who second guess everything I say, and when you've got 653 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 2: your sisters around. 654 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 3: You can be like, we was that all right that 655 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 3: I said that? 656 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 2: So I feel like everyone, knowing that so many people 657 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: go through it has to be some. 658 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 3: Kind of thought base. I suppose to tell. 659 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 2: A lot of people want to know when you're going 660 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 2: to be back touring in Scotland, and also when you're 661 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 2: coming to Switzerland. 662 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: Oh that's nice. Yeah, as soon as we can. I 663 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: think we definitely have a little headline show again at 664 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: the end of the year in Scotland. We had a 665 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: good year last year, so we'll be back there again, 666 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: which is going to give it a bit of time 667 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: as well for some new music and things, and same 668 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: with Switzerland. I think we'll be back doing the Coolest 669 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 1: Shoulder again, so I look forward to seeing everyone there. 670 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: This is a bit of a controversial question. Who's your 671 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 2: favorite sister? I don't know. 672 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's so hard because I love 673 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: both of them equally but in different ways. Clara is amazing. 674 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: She's the oldest, not very much, but she's sort of 675 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: the mediator and the calm one. I'll have to ask 676 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 1: you guys this question too, because I want to know 677 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: what the dynamics are and you guys. But yeah, Clara's 678 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: sort of the mediator and the calm one of the group, 679 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: and she's sort of if George and I have creative differences, 680 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: she usually thoughts of like, Okay, so you're thinking this 681 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: and you're thinking that, so why don't we do this? 682 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 1: So she's really good. But then Georgia is just so 683 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: ridiculously talented. I've never sort of met anyone. And I 684 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: don't know if it's biased because she's my sister, but 685 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: just the way she can play music without like reading 686 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: music and just pick things up and just play things. 687 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 1: You just ask her to play a song, she can 688 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: do that, and the songs she writes so clever and beautiful, 689 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: so which is one of the reasons why I think 690 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: I've stayed doing music, because it's so amazing working with 691 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: her and just being part of it all, and it's 692 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: quite special doing that. As sisters, She's gonna let things 693 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: are hilarious because I would never say this to her face. 694 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh like I would. I would, but she'd also be like, 695 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: he I've got this on tape now when we're having fights. 696 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, so she's Yeah, she's great, and she's she 697 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: works really really hard. So yeah, I love I think 698 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: I love both of them. And I've got another sister, 699 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: Beth as well, who was older, who hates I love Beth. 700 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 2: If you're live, I didn't know you had another. 701 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was blowing my mud. 702 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got us. There's six of us in the family. 703 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: So got Beth and Sam and then but she's got 704 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: two beautiful children, and yeah, I lived out on a 705 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: farm in South Australia with her lovely husband, so yeah, 706 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: but she's amazing as well, and Sam too, and then Charlie. 707 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: So it's a big group of us. 708 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: So you love them all I love yeah? 709 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well actually, who do you love more than your 710 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 2: sisters or Pasimo? 711 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 3: Your oh my gosh. 712 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 2: So we've had a few, yeah, a few people asking 713 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: this isn't just for me personally, because I also want 714 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 2: to know about pismo. But Ella has an amazing would 715 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 2: you call it a pet or a rescue possem? 716 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: So it's a rescue cost them from Fauna Rescue. So 717 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: when we had the Loverthaw bush fires, I think it 718 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: was she was blown out of her mother's pouch and 719 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: they couldn't find the mother and she was still too 720 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: young to be released, so I think she was she 721 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: needed like her four feeds a day. And when I 722 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: was actually doing totally wild, I did a story with 723 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: Bev Langley from Minton Farm who has a whole bunch 724 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: of possums, and she gave me a couple of rescues 725 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: and I read them and then really send back into 726 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: the wild because where I live up in the hills, 727 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: where my parents live, it's a great possum releasing place. 728 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: So she called me up when they recently had one 729 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: boardy and it was only one.

It's 817 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: been really good for us. I think there's no better 818 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: time at the moment to be a female in yeah, 819 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: in music, but just in anything. I think something we 820 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: always were really adamant about with our music and just 821 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: in general with ourselves was we don't want to be 822 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: just good for a girl. We want to be good, 823 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: which was actually a theme of a song that we're writing. 824 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: But we don't we I think like a lot of 825 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: people like, oh, you girls are good at guitar for girls, 826 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: like kind of thing and George used together and she's 827 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: an amazing guitarist. And I remember an old boyfriend of 828 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: mine was like, you don't want to be walking in 829 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: place and being like, oh, yeah, they're all right because 830 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: they're chicks, like that sounds decent. They want to just say, wow, 831 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,919 Speaker 1: these girls are really really good. And that was something 832 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: that always stuck with me that he said. So I 833 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: think that's been something that we've tried to We think 834 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: it's very important that everyone is equal, and like, you know, 835 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: no matter what it is with nominations with awards or 836 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: festival bills or anything, I think it's always good to 837 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: have the best people. And you know, it's great to 838 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: have a lot of diversity as well, like having girls 839 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: and guys, all girl bands or just boy bands. Like 840 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: I think it's so important to have lots of diversity, 841 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: but also have especially for things just as yourself, just 842 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: to be the best you can, no matter what your 843 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: gender is or your preferences or anything like that, because 844 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: I think that's sometimes we never want to be like 845 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: playing the female card on anything. We want people to 846 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: hear our music and it could be a guy thing 847 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: em though it was clearly very much a girl but 848 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: we just want to be on an equal playing fields. 849 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: But it's been amazing and there's a lot of great 850 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: support systems out there for women. I was at a 851 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: women's breakfast for music recently in Adelaide, and it was 852 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 1: so cool seeing all the support and the women coming together. 853 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: Can I think you guys have addressed it too. It's 854 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: about bringing girls up then you know, beating them down 855 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: or trying to compete against them, because we're all in 856 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: it together and we're all feeling the same thing. So 857 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: I think it's really important like supporting each other's each 858 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: girls as well, but also not defaming men either, because 859 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: there's a lot of great men out there as well 860 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: that have been supportive of us too, So I wouldn't 861 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: be fair for us to be like, screw the boys, 862 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: because you know, we've had both help, amazing help from 863 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: both girls and boys. 864 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 3: So it's so. 865 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 2: Good as well that you guys have that mentality because 866 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 2: I think that's so good for young women who listen 867 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 2: to your music and love you. 868 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 3: Guys to hear. 869 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 2: And it's crazy because it's funny when you're saying all 870 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 2: of those points. It made me really think because I 871 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 2: never think, oh, they're just on the festival because they're 872 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 2: a girl group. But I suppose one of those politics 873 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 2: do come into choosing. 874 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, we we didn't ever want to just be 875 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: selected because we're a girl band. Like obviously it's great 876 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 1: to have as many girls on the bill as possible 877 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: because there's not that much representation of in some areas. 878 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:15,919 Speaker 1: But we also didn't want to just be there because 879 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: we were girls. We wanted to be there because we 880 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: were good enough to be there and worked hard enough 881 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 1: and deserve to be there as well. 882 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 4: So yeah, And something that Taylor Swift Queen Amazing Yeah, 883 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 4: she touched on last year was the fact that as 884 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 4: she approached thirty, she felt like she was getting asked 885 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 4: a lot of questions that male artists perhaps wouldn't get. 886 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 1: For sure, you think. 887 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 2: That's something that happens with you guys. Obviously you're in 888 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 2: your twenties at the moment, but you feel that a 889 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: little bit. 890 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely. I think we get a lot. We get 891 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: asked our age a lot, which is fine, but I've 892 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 1: never heard a boy band get us their age. A 893 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: lot of people ask about when you guys going to 894 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: stop and start thinking about having children, which I was like, well, 895 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: can't you do both? You know what I mean? Like 896 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: it's I was like, I don't know what I'd look 897 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: like with a pregnant pregnant base player, but with my 898 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: I've got a little hoffner now, so I can just 899 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: put that on top of it if that ended up happening. 900 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 2: But no, like your partner can stay at home and 901 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 2: look after your baby as well. 902 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: Well, it works, And I've seen so many amazing couples 903 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: on the road do it, like you know, like Ronan 904 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: and his wife and she's she had a little baby 905 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: while he was on tour, and you know, obviously she 906 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: wasn't playing, but you know, you can if you've got 907 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: a supportive partner and like a supportive group around you. 908 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 1: You can do it. It's obviously going to be hard, 909 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: but I think like there's a lot of stereotypes of 910 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: what and like people like to sort of tell you 911 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: what you can and can't do, and when you're doing 912 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: something a little different, there are those times and people 913 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: like to sort of tell you, oh, no, you can't 914 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 1: do that, There's no way you can do that. When 915 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 1: when's this expiry day? Which is something that's always sort 916 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: of gotten under my skin a bit because I'm like, well, 917 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: why can't I do both? And why can't I do media? 918 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: And why can't I do music? And why can't I 919 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 1: do art? But also have a posim at home and 920 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: also like to you know, travel and do different things 921 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: as well. So I think it's just it's good this 922 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: day and age we live in. And I'm very very 923 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: fortunate and lucky, and I'm well aware of that as well, 924 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 1: that I've been lucky enough to be able to live lifestyle. 925 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: But and it wouldn't it wouldn't be as easy for 926 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: maybe someone else. But yeah, I think you've just got 927 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: to have that mentality that you can do anything you want. 928 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 1: You just figure out different ways to make your work 929 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: and be creative with it. 930 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 2: That's so true though that men do never get us, 931 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 2: Like can you imagine if Harry if they asked Harry styles. Okay, Harry, 932 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 2: so when are you having a kid and when is 933 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 2: your As a result of having. 934 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: Got a chairman man, that's like, first you told me 935 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: that I shouldn't be eating the cake that Spend bought 936 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: us because he's like, you need to watch your figure 937 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: as a woman, and I was just like, watch me 938 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: eat this cake. No, he was just joking around, but 939 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: I think they sort of there's sometimes that mentality with 940 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: a few people. And then he was also like, oh, 941 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: you know, like you're getting older, like your eggs are 942 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: going to start trying up. And I was like, and you, like, 943 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: I think saying that to a girl is quite is 944 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: quite rude. And it's also like it's like, who you 945 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: just say that to me about like my you know, 946 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: what's going on inside? Like you know, I just I 947 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: think that's quite a sensitive issue. And that's something in 948 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of years, as I've gotten into my 949 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: later twenties that people have sort of brought up about 950 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: like doing a travel thing. But I think you just 951 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: got to brush it off, and I've learned to deal 952 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: with that and just you know, not worry about what 953 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: other people think and just do my own thing for now, so. 954 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 2: That you're sharing it too, because I'm sure a lot 955 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 2: of people go through similar things, even in a different 956 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 2: career paths where there's a lot of judgment questions. 957 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 3: So mad that people can ask that kind of stuff. 958 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 2: I mean because we we had our mom on the 959 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,240 Speaker 2: podcast for weeks talking about I love that episode. 960 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: I heard that that was the definite listen to them. 961 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: Actually, oh she was so cute, but you know you 962 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 2: talking about all the private questions people asked her.
