1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:05,760
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 2: As we know, has separated from his wife, but for

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 2: his entire marriage, once a year he does something very intriguing.

4
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 2: He goes on a holiday, a long weekend with his

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 2: ex girlfriend. That was when he first married Melinda. He said,

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 2: here's the deal. I go away with her every weekend.

7
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 2: Nothing well, I'm assuming nothing saucy, but they they are

8
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: very old friends. They go hiking together, they play golf together,

9
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 2: and they discuss biotechnology, he said of his private getaways

10
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 2: with her. She's another tech nerd, and when they first

11
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: got together, they were tech nerds together in an industry

12
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 2: that a lot of people didn't understand. So they've got

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: a lot of history there. She's five years older than him,

14
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: so she's seventy now. And they still go away once

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: a week. They ride once a year, ride June Buggies,

16
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: They go hang gliding, have quiet strolls on the beach.

17
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 2: And the article that wrote about said that there's a

18
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 2: photo of him in his office with his ex on

19
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 2: a trip to Germany.

20
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 3: Wow.

21
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 2: And when he decided to marry Melinda, he said to

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: his ex girlfriend, what do you think? And she said, yeah,

23
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 2: I think she's good. She'll be a good intellectual partner

24
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: for you.

25
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: It's happened in Maretiversailles, Bryce and Melissa. Melissa had her ex.

26
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 3: That she would talk to quite regularly, her ex that

27
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 3: she'd left twelve years before, but it was in constant contact.

28
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: With Did the ex have a partner and how did

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 2: that partner feel about that?

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: I'm not too sure. I didn't mind that much.

31
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 4: Further, but you know, I know people, for example, at

32
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 4: the wedding. I went to a friend's wedding just a

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 4: couple of years ago, and her ex was.

34
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: At the wedding, and I said, this is kind of weird,

35
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: isn't it?

36
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: My ex was at my wedding and I invited the

37
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: other one who I've only had two ex'es. I'm still

38
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: I'm still friends with my exes, but I don't go

39
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 2: on holidays with them.

40
00:01:53,440 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, but at your wedding. Does that seem weird? Yeah?

41
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: Does it? What would the X sort of stand there saying, well,

42
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: you know, that could have worked out, should have been me.

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: No, Sadly, no one said that I wouldn't go on.

44
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: Holiday thinking you got out of jail there, Well, it

45
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: could go either way.

46
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting, isn't it? And then when I was invited

47
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: to his wedding, I couldn't go, and I probably was

48
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 2: happy to not.

49
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: You got to dress up in a bridal outfit.

50
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 2: But there's maybe some people have relationships that are just

51
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,399
Speaker 2: too close with the ex, and I don't know how

52
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: the current partner deals with it.

53
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's
