Speaker 2: winner of down Under Season two has been crowned, and
Speaker 2: today we're going to be hearing.
Speaker 1: From Reece Nicholson, one of the judges.
Speaker 2: Of course, normally at this time every week we'd be
Speaker 2: debriefing with the queens after they've left the show. But
Speaker 2: funnily enough, would you believe, after a big weekend of celebrating,
Speaker 2: none of the top three were available for media on
Speaker 2: a Monday. Now, we weren't specifically told that they were
Speaker 2: too hungover for any commitments, but I'm sure we can
Speaker 2: all read between the lines there and fair enough.
Speaker 3: Good on.
Speaker 2: Then we'll catch up with them later in the week
Speaker 2: instead talking all about the season finale and season two
Speaker 2: as a whole, which really that means lucky you more
Speaker 2: than one Drag Race Debrief.
Speaker 3: Bonus episode this week.
Speaker 2: You're just gonna have to make sure you've got notifications
Speaker 2: turned on so you don't miss that episode when it drops.
Speaker 2: But for now, Mitch and I caught up with Reez
Speaker 2: Nicholson right after he finished filming for season two.
Speaker 1: It's ree Hello a.
Speaker 2: Oh thank god you've got a fancy mike. I hate
Speaker 2: it when people sound shit on zoom.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm this has been the thing about this whole pandemic,
Speaker 4: and this is all I've taken from it, is that
Speaker 4: how many people do not know in this business how
Speaker 4: to use a computer or just have thing like for
Speaker 4: people that work in media, there's.
Speaker 3: Some real morons around.
Speaker 5: Hi. I'm so happy to be here, Reees.
Speaker 3: This is so exciting. Welcome to the show. How are you?
Speaker 3: Thanks for being here.
Speaker 5: I'm good. How are you guys?
Speaker 4: It's a pleasure. I'm still in my own home, so
Speaker 4: I couldn't give a shit.
Speaker 5: Where are you guys? Where are you?
Speaker 3: We're in the studio, we're in iHeartRadio HQ. I saw
Speaker 3: that you were in New Zealand, though, I mean were
Speaker 3: You're filming the new season of Drag Race down Under?
Speaker 3: Is that wrapped?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, yeah we filmed it in New Zealand.
Speaker 4: No one knows why, but we do it, no one,
Speaker 4: I think, just it was floated early on and just
Speaker 4: no one questioned it.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was just in New Zealand doing that, and yeah,
Speaker 5: now I'm back. I had a great time.
Speaker 3: How was it?
Speaker 5: Was it like really really fun this time?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, well you say that like the first time wasn't.
Speaker 4: No, Well, I kind of like it was very fun,
Speaker 4: but I also wasn't dead behind the eyes terrified about
Speaker 4: the fact that I was sitting next to Raupaul and.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was actually saying just before, I was like,
Speaker 2: I wonder how Reithe feels about that being his identify now, Like, oh,
Speaker 2: wreaths from drag Race, even though you were working your
Speaker 2: guts off for years in stand up comedy, that's kind
Speaker 2: of become Oh he's from drag Race.
Speaker 4: Oh look, if some of those drag Race people by
Speaker 4: tickets to my shows, I don't.
Speaker 5: Care how I don't care.
Speaker 4: You don't even have to turn up the But I
Speaker 4: think I think generally as well, like just I don't
Speaker 4: I don't mind it. I see you know I could
Speaker 4: be known for worse shows. Well, yeah, I think I
Speaker 4: like this year. I think was different as well because
Speaker 4: I feel like the girls as well, without giving anything away,
Speaker 4: but the contestants as well didn't have to feel like
Speaker 4: they were on the first season of drag Race down Under,
Speaker 4: so there was like a little bit of I think
Speaker 4: they were a little bit kind of freer as well.
Speaker 4: They were just you know, it's a very, very fun season.
Speaker 4: I'm quite looking forward to seeing it.
Speaker 3: Oh well, looking forward. We were at the premiere when
Speaker 3: it happened to like because it was kind of in
Speaker 3: that weird pocket where COVID was around. But then it
Speaker 3: stopped and then we were all sort of free and
Speaker 3: we had the premiere. It was great. Now the Queen's
Speaker 3: came and the excitement for the season was crazy. So yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm really pumped for I'm really pumped.
Speaker 5: For the NICs.
Speaker 4: That creepy video from Canada that looked right, you couldn't
Speaker 4: be there, that's right.
Speaker 3: I interviewed Michelle Vassage like last week for my radio show,
Speaker 3: and she is ali, Oh my god, because I was
Speaker 3: like you, I mean, I'm not to the same extent
Speaker 3: you're sitting next to her on the show and hosting
Speaker 3: with her, but interviewing her, I was, I was intimidated
Speaker 3: because the amount of weight that she has in a
Speaker 3: young gay man's mind, Like I watched, I watch every
Speaker 3: season of Drag Race. I think she's hilarious and so talented,
Speaker 3: and I think because I've seen her in a judging
Speaker 3: position that I was kind of expecting to be to
Speaker 3: be judged. It felt it was a weird dynamic. I
Speaker 3: don't know if you felt the same meeting her, Oh.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, Like and I you know, same with both of them.
Speaker 4: You kind of go in thinking and you kind of
Speaker 4: have in the back of your head you're a little
Speaker 4: bit prepared that, oh, these people could.
Speaker 5: Be monsters, yes, Like yeah not, but just because I
Speaker 5: don't think.
Speaker 4: I think it's really tough to be that famous, wealthy
Speaker 4: for that long and not.
Speaker 5: Become a bit of a monster.
Speaker 4: And both of them are just the loveliest, most real,
Speaker 4: Like I've never met a more interested person than Rue, Like,
Speaker 4: like he just wants to know everything about like how
Speaker 4: your day was, and he wants to know about your family.
Speaker 5: Really sort of doss a about us all.
Speaker 4: But Michelle is like, Michelle's like my buddy now, like
Speaker 4: I feel like this second year as well, kind of
Speaker 4: like we have lunches together and we go for walks
Speaker 4: and so she's just she's also the most probably the
Speaker 4: most professional person I've ever fucking met, Like she just
Speaker 4: like and you would have seen it in the interview
Speaker 4: as well. She's just a media trained, incredibly funny like
Speaker 4: she just don't I don't know.
Speaker 5: I've been impressed with.
Speaker 4: Her before, and she knows what she's doing in an interview,
Speaker 4: and she knows to give you what you need, and
Speaker 4: she knows how to tease people and how to push
Speaker 4: the line.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know, I just really love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you know this meet, but she
Speaker 3: was in a girl group when she was like sixteen.
Speaker 3: Then she did right, yes, seduction. Her and Rude did
Speaker 3: a radio show in New York City a lot, Yeah,
Speaker 3: a radio show, and then they she.
Speaker 5: Used to do like a morning zoo show for years
Speaker 5: and years.
Speaker 3: She has been working in the industry for so long.
Speaker 1: So those two go way back.
Speaker 2: And then reads did you feel like a bit of
Speaker 2: a third wheel coming into that equation?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Best friend and they they I think almost made an
Speaker 4: effort to make sure that they didn't feel that way.
Speaker 4: Like when we were last year, when we were in quarantine,
Speaker 4: she called. We were both in quarantine, separate hotels, and
Speaker 4: she called me and was like such a number and
Speaker 4: was like lit's and like she was putting on makeup.
Speaker 4: So the first time I met her was on a
Speaker 4: zoom screen while she was putting on her makeup and
Speaker 4: but no, they just make really like although a stressful
Speaker 4: thing happened this time where we both Michelle and I
Speaker 4: both love seafood.
Speaker 5: I don't know if this is a boring story.
Speaker 4: We both love seafood and we're in Auckland always looking
Speaker 4: for like a place that we could go and eat
Speaker 4: some seafood.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I was like.
Speaker 4: Oh, I think I found a place, and she was like, oh, great,
Speaker 4: maybe I'll invite a couple of the producers. And then
Speaker 4: when I turned up, there the entire like world of
Speaker 4: Wonder Crew and rouh my God, like Raven and all
Speaker 4: these people like sitting at the time, and I was like,
Speaker 4: oh hi, and oh yes, right, ride sat down. He
Speaker 4: went so why did we come here? And Michelle went, oh,
Speaker 4: Reese picked it. And I was like, shut up, the
Speaker 4: person that picked this. And it was all fine, But
Speaker 4: I don't know it was the.
Speaker 3: Shoot was the food ship because nothing worse, like you
Speaker 3: said when you recommend something that it's terrible, and it's
Speaker 3: all it was.
Speaker 4: It was good, but it was that thing that anytime
Speaker 4: someone said, oh that's not how I expected it, or
Speaker 4: anytime like a drink was a bit turned yeah, and
Speaker 4: also like, I don't know, this isn't like it's very
Speaker 4: la as well. None of the none of the American
Speaker 4: people really kind of drink. And I'm not making a
Speaker 4: statement about that. It's like they're all very healthy, very
Speaker 4: good people. Yeah, and I'm different to that, and so
Speaker 4: I'd always just have to be like down the end
Speaker 4: of the table, like and I.
Speaker 5: Can to get four more white wine, thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Just leave the box seafood you need, you need something
Speaker 3: to wash it all day?
Speaker 5: Absolutely so that they don't, but no, it is.
Speaker 4: It is a little kind of family, and it is
Speaker 4: like a weird sometimes I just have I'll be sitting
Speaker 4: on the panel and I'm sure the queens must have
Speaker 4: this on a minute by minute basis, but you're seeing
Speaker 4: there going like, what a weird job this is? Yeah,
Speaker 4: Like it is really you know, look at these look
Speaker 4: at all these people dressed up as women, and I'm
Speaker 4: going to tell them whether they're good at that or not,
Speaker 4: and that will depend on whether they lip sync, and
Speaker 4: then they might go home like that's it, what a
Speaker 4: wild job?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Do you feel like I feel like when people get
Speaker 2: jobs as judges, they kind of make jokes like, oh,
Speaker 2: I'm getting paid to be judgmental. This is fantastic. But
Speaker 2: do you sometimes feel like, oh god, I don't want
Speaker 2: to be mean, Like I would actually hate being a
Speaker 2: judge totally.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm definitely the polar abdul of the group.
Speaker 4: I put myself as the kind of like, yeah, I
Speaker 4: think I'm the in that I don't know where I
Speaker 4: am a lot of time, and I think I probably
Speaker 4: have a history with.
Speaker 5: Pills, but the allegedly allegedly.
Speaker 4: But no, I mean I kind of because I'm really
Speaker 4: passionate about drag, but I don't do drag. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 4: and so I would never I'm never going to tell
Speaker 4: one of those girls like that eye isn't right and
Speaker 4: you should sinch more or something. I'm like, I think
Speaker 4: myself as like a conduit for the audience and I'm
Speaker 4: there to be like, you know, there are times this
Speaker 4: season where I felt like I was in an actual
Speaker 4: drag show, Like there was some kind of rough, rough drag,
Speaker 4: but like it felt like, you know, I'm at the
Speaker 4: peel or am I Like, you know, I'm an arc
Speaker 4: at eleven o'clock at night and I'm waiting for the
Speaker 4: second show.
Speaker 5: You like it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, is there a smokers room. Is there a back alley?
Speaker 3: I can just have a cigarette with one of these?
Speaker 2: Did you have many fond memories of trash Alley at
Speaker 2: Arc as well? Because that place is near and dear
Speaker 2: to my heart and now it's closed.
Speaker 4: I know, and I you know what, I probably have
Speaker 4: some memories, but I do not have access to them anymow.
Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, they're foggy as fun when.
Speaker 5: I was there.
Speaker 3: Right, Well, that's exciting. We're looking forward to drag race
Speaker 3: down under our season two. That'll be fun. And congratulations
Speaker 3: because that is such a good get and you're right,
Speaker 3: it's that role that you're feeling is like the Carson Crasley,
Speaker 3: the Ross Matthews. It's like you're just there to entertain
Speaker 3: and you are so funny. I can only imagine that
Speaker 3: when the girls come out on the runway and you
Speaker 3: hit him with puns and you make jokes and do
Speaker 3: you do they are they actually like right there in
Speaker 3: the moment or do you like dub them?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 5: No, no, it's all there.
Speaker 4: And that that was quite a shock to me. Last year,
Speaker 4: I thought there would be.
Speaker 5: A lot more production.
Speaker 3: Yeah, evolved.
Speaker 4: I thought there might be some riders, No, none of that,
Speaker 4: And that's the wild thing as well. And I feel
Speaker 4: like I'm just sucking up to my bosses now, but
Speaker 4: like ruined Michelle, leave me in the dust with that shit.
Speaker 4: Like so like the system and I feel like I
Speaker 4: can probably say this. The system is the girls do
Speaker 4: one walk around and then we watch that to music,
Speaker 4: and I guess we try and think of a little
Speaker 4: thing and literally straight away, like once the last girl
Speaker 4: walks off the runway, the first one walks on again
Speaker 4: and they do that to silence, and that's when we
Speaker 4: do our puns and kind of the last third of
Speaker 4: an episode is pretty much in real time. Wow, there's
Speaker 4: a bit of standing around, but it's all boom boom boom.
Speaker 4: There's not like we don't go back to our dressing
Speaker 4: rooms constantly. We don't like it's all happens. The girls
Speaker 4: are told they're in the bottom and then they lip sync.
Speaker 3: Once you're on the desk, you're stuck there for a bit.
Speaker 3: You're staying how much of.
Speaker 2: What you say actually makes the final cut? Because I
Speaker 2: if I was on a show like that, I'd be
Speaker 2: watching it back going ah, they bloody edged out that
Speaker 2: funny thing I said.
Speaker 4: See luckily for me, very little of what I said.
Speaker 4: There are so many things that you just blurt out
Speaker 4: that you're like, oh oh yeah, that's not and also
Speaker 4: just bad part like just silly.
Speaker 5: I mean, but the ones that did.
Speaker 4: The one that sticks out to me from SO one
Speaker 4: my first episode last year, I was so nervous and
Speaker 4: like there was just no not prep but like you're
Speaker 4: just kind of thrown in and you would be yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: And there's a line that I just blurted out that
Speaker 4: was like, well I do like balls slapping on my arm.
Speaker 1: I remember, Yeah, that one definitely made the caunt And
Speaker 1: it's like.
Speaker 5: I don't even remember saying that, and like, but it
Speaker 5: was there. It was there. I think it's just so.
Speaker 4: Like you just say what you're thinking and then they
Speaker 4: just cut around. I don't know, I feel like that
Speaker 4: was really boring answer, but it is. I'm glad that
Speaker 4: they don't put in a lot of the stuff.
Speaker 3: Well, you're in the what is it called the Rue
Speaker 3: Cinematic Universe, the RuPaul Child Year, you know, I'm just
Speaker 3: calling it that now, you're the can't wait for the
Speaker 3: respin Off.
Speaker 4: Yeah. If ever, like VH one makes some like poorly
Speaker 4: produced documentary in like twenty years about it can be
Speaker 4: like one of the most available people to do a
Speaker 4: talking bit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well he hasn't spoken to me in ten years.
Speaker 3: But let me tell you a story about a fish
Speaker 3: and chip restaurant. You've told us many times.
Speaker 2: You guys kind of have a similar origin story rates
Speaker 2: because you now work at the radio station on air,
Speaker 2: but you started as a street teamer. Yeah, and didn't
Speaker 2: you start working in the box office race?
Speaker 1: Is that right?
Speaker 5: Yes? I did look at you doing your researches.
Speaker 4: I used to work at the n More Theater in
Speaker 4: the box office for years and that it got to
Speaker 4: the point where people would come in to buy tickets
Speaker 4: to my show No, and that got to be embarrassing,
Speaker 4: so I quick my job there. But it is tell
Speaker 4: you what, if you've ever worked in ticketing, there's no
Speaker 4: quicker way to find out that most people in the
Speaker 4: world are idiots ticketing. The amount of calls that we
Speaker 4: will get every day that were just the most dumb
Speaker 4: questions of people, like you know what a ticket It
Speaker 4: just says like plus BF, which is booking fee. People
Speaker 4: would call in I reckon twice a week and ask
Speaker 4: if that meant breakfast was included if they could bring
Speaker 4: their boyfriend or if they could bring best friend best friend.
Speaker 2: It takes a certain type of person to really hone
Speaker 2: in on the fine print of a ticket, like I'm
Speaker 2: just like what Dora am I at? As I arrive,
Speaker 2: I don't read the BF.
Speaker 5: People are so dumb.
Speaker 4: People are so dumb and like and I and I
Speaker 4: hated that jet like I did it for long. I
Speaker 4: thought I was a people person. It turns out I
Speaker 4: am not.
Speaker 3: Circle though, race Like for your first performance where they're
Speaker 3: still staff there that were working your show, ashes or something.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Gary, Gary, this out.
Speaker 4: The lighting guy was still there, and so it was
Speaker 4: it was this kind of weird he like gave me
Speaker 4: a RG. It was this weird like like yeah, comes
Speaker 4: through moment and yeah, and I'm getting married there next.
Speaker 5: Year at the n More Theater. Yes, we're selling tickets.
Speaker 5: No we're not.
Speaker 3: How how the hell does that work out? Where's the aisle?
Speaker 3: Is someone walking down the aisle? Tell us the production?
Speaker 3: What's happening?
Speaker 4: This is?
Speaker 5: This is a confusing thing. I don't know what I mean.
Speaker 4: We've had gay marriage for a while now, but no
Speaker 4: one has explained to me what the system is yeah,
Speaker 4: like who is it tops and bottoms thing? Yeah, it's
Speaker 4: verse like who who walks down the aisle?
Speaker 2: If you're at the end more theater, you can do
Speaker 2: whatever your damn please. You could enter on like a trapeze.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they've got holes in the stage for that
Speaker 3: ship so they can pop you out if you really
Speaker 3: want to put the rings on a convey about like
Speaker 3: go full flight.
Speaker 5: I could come. I could come down like on a
Speaker 5: sitting on a big crescent moon.
Speaker 3: Oh, that'd be so can I do like that?
Speaker 5: Get a full orchestra and like send in the clowns
Speaker 5: or something.
Speaker 3: In the pit. That'd be great, speaking of moon. Actually,
Speaker 3: very quickly, I think I interviewed you on the first
Speaker 3: season of Drag Graceries. I don't know if I brought
Speaker 3: this up. He can't recall I was there now. He's like, no,
Speaker 3: I've met you before. I was there when you did
Speaker 3: your set at Conan, and it was so cool to
Speaker 3: have an Aussie there, and it was just like I
Speaker 3: just loved it, and like the connected you Conan. He
Speaker 3: clearly adores you, and you look just like him and
Speaker 3: all that bit. But like seeing an Aussie there and
Speaker 3: you killed it. You were so good?
Speaker 5: Was wait were you? Were you at the Sydney Show
Speaker 5: or at the lay Show Lay Show.
Speaker 3: I was at the taping of Cone WHOA, Yes, how
Speaker 3: we I know kind of you know what?
Speaker 5: I did not know that.
Speaker 4: And this is again probably maybe a boring thing to say,
Speaker 4: is it that no one told me that when I
Speaker 4: would start my set on the show that Conan would
Speaker 4: be sitting about two meters away at the desk and
Speaker 4: just sitting on a seat, like just looking so like
Speaker 4: I'd go He'd say, like letting Joe resnikles and then
Speaker 4: he just sat down on a chair and just looked
Speaker 4: at me, And all you can see on the clip
Speaker 4: is like me just occasionally looking off camera and being
Speaker 4: like is he gonna move?
Speaker 3: He had an audible laughs. Though you were great? You
Speaker 3: killed it?
Speaker 5: Do you know what?
Speaker 2: One of the I'm not just saying this to like
Speaker 2: suck ass, but I one of the best comedy things
Speaker 2: I've ever been to was that night that you and
Speaker 2: Jog Crazy did a few years ago.
Speaker 1: It was around Games Night. I was trying to remember
Speaker 1: the name of it.
Speaker 2: It was around Marti Gras and it was those two
Speaker 2: Joel and Reese and they brought out different people like
Speaker 2: Lucy Durak.
Speaker 3: And George Love, a bunch of different.
Speaker 2: People and it was just the most chaotic thing ever
Speaker 2: and I it was so funny.
Speaker 4: We had not planned that, so like we had booked
Speaker 4: a spot and because this is this is the thing
Speaker 4: about both Joel and I as well, we're like we're
Speaker 4: like best friends and we both loved doing things together
Speaker 4: and like having like big ideas. But then also both
Speaker 4: of us are not good at following through with those ideas.
Speaker 4: We're really good if we're produced, yes, but we decided
Speaker 4: to produce it ourselves, and we booked a show at
Speaker 4: the Seymour Center.
Speaker 5: It sold out, and then we had to go be like, oh,
Speaker 5: we've got to like do this.
Speaker 4: Within like two days, we like booked, He booked all
Speaker 4: the guests, and I like put and it was like
Speaker 4: a games night. But and then we were like and
Speaker 4: at the start, we'll just do twenty minutes to stand
Speaker 4: up together and we just but yeah, it was like
Speaker 4: pure chaos, and I could.
Speaker 2: Tell that it was like more improv and that's what
Speaker 2: I adored about her, because like nothing fell flat. It
Speaker 2: was just hit after It was amazing and the best
Speaker 2: part of Mitch. I don't even know if I've told
Speaker 2: you this story, but without any pre promotion or heads up,
Speaker 2: they were just like, anyway, here's Concheta Verse from Eurovision
Speaker 2: comes out and sings that rise like a phoenix song?
Speaker 2: Is it?
Speaker 1: And then I was like, what the hell is this show?
Speaker 3: It was amazing?
Speaker 5: Do you want to do? You want me to break
Speaker 5: your heart?
Speaker 4: That was a that was a person that was their
Speaker 4: friend Max pretending to be Compittaverse.
Speaker 1: Oh, hang on our third wheel. Jenna is here?
Speaker 3: Did you know that?
Speaker 1: What are you joking?
Speaker 3: Because they were there together?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: No, sorry, Jenna step into the frame. Is that why
Speaker 2: you haven't been talking this whole time? Because Jenna is
Speaker 2: here as well. She's the rees where the Michelle and Rue.
Speaker 1: That was gonna be my question. I was going to say,
Speaker 1: how the hell did you look and Conchete up? But
Speaker 1: it looked just like Cheta.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Mitch has told me this story before and
Speaker 3: has just gone on about how good Conchetta was.
Speaker 2: I did think Conchetao let us off go a bit,
Speaker 2: but it was fine.
Speaker 4: It was so it's our friend Max, who is who
Speaker 4: is a radio producer.
Speaker 3: Maxstoh, we know I know him but I didn't know
Speaker 3: that was Max.
Speaker 1: I know him, and I had no idea that was him.
Speaker 3: I can see it now in drag he would skew.
Speaker 3: He would he would just like a bit of.
Speaker 4: A We worried, so we we thought it was so
Speaker 4: obviously not him right backstage that we didn't like correct it.
Speaker 5: And You're not alone.
Speaker 4: Everyone in that audience thought that that was con Cheetah,
Speaker 4: and we didn't know what to do, so we just
Speaker 4: didn't correct.
Speaker 1: Just left it all. I did all the only thing
Speaker 1: I thought was okay.
Speaker 2: Clearly the hair makeup budget at the scene, what's there
Speaker 2: isn't the same as Eurovision, But I still believe that
Speaker 2: it was Compeater of Earth and.
Speaker 3: Out of a long.
Speaker 1: List everyone everyone.
Speaker 2: Same, out of a long list of things. I have
Speaker 2: never felt dumber.
Speaker 3: That's this moment. Funny, what a legacy you left on
Speaker 3: this show. You go on drag Race, You're hilarious, Hold you,
Speaker 3: and then you ruined me and it's.
Speaker 1: We're done here. I'm going to be messaging Max and
Speaker 1: being like you fucking piece of shit?
Speaker 3: And can I book you?
Speaker 5: Confused? Will you be if he denies it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like you've all made a part.
Speaker 5: What if this is the prank? What if this is
Speaker 5: the lie.
Speaker 3: Being gasolate into a fake share? That's hilarious.
Speaker 2: I'm too tired for this, Honestly, I have to ask
Speaker 2: our important.
Speaker 1: Question before we goes.
Speaker 3: Of course, go for it.
Speaker 2: So every time we have a guest on the podcast,
Speaker 2: we like to ask them like a little thing in
Speaker 2: life that they appreciate, just like, you know, the fresh
Speaker 2: sheets in the bed, or like the crunch of a
Speaker 2: good outpull, you know, a little thing like that, because
Speaker 2: we just want to remind our young listeners that there's

Speaker 3: what did she say? Said her waterbed, which was yeah again,
Speaker 3: I know I.
Speaker 5: Saw that clip.
Speaker 4: I did a bit of recent my own. By the way,
Speaker 4: I'm obsessed with that like that. She was talking about
Speaker 4: how it heats up and cools down. Imagine having a
Speaker 4: bed that you can cool down I know.
Speaker 2: I know that was nearly the selling point for me,
Speaker 2: because I'm always just a little bit overheated.

Speaker 4: the dinner on me and I need like one leg out.

Speaker 4: A similar vein. I was thinking, Oh, I have a
Speaker 4: weighted blanket that I really like. That's like a very
Speaker 4: feel like a very grown up thing. But that also
Speaker 4: makes me sound like a psycho.

Speaker 3: Don't google what it helps with? All right, what's yours?
Speaker 5: So good?

Speaker 4: the thing I'm gonna pick is, and this is really boring,
Speaker 4: is like skin care. That sounds so dumb. I'm in
Speaker 4: my thirties and it's something I have really like. You know,
Speaker 4: when I was in my twenties, it was all really
Speaker 4: like what's on sale? I'm the squarehouse. Yeah, and now
Speaker 4: like I don't want to get jab jabs just yet,
Speaker 4: but I think I want to get like I want
Speaker 4: to get derma pen like micro needling done that, which
Speaker 4: is the thing that someone told me about where they
Speaker 4: stab your face at bazillion times and your skin goes
Speaker 4: into trauma and that produces collagen.
Speaker 5: So anyways, it sounds old. I mean, I've put on
Speaker 5: paper on paper.
Speaker 4: It sounds awful, but I think it's like it's better
Speaker 4: than putting poison your face. And also the I think
Speaker 4: it's just I guess what I'm saying is like.
Speaker 5: Self care, but like tell me, yeah, getting more.
Speaker 4: Into as I grow up a little bit is like
Speaker 4: I don't need to be drunk every single night, and
Speaker 4: I can like buy good moisturizers that isn't going to
Speaker 4: make me look like a foot.

Speaker 4: one and I'm buying a bottle of forty dollars like
Speaker 4: chiraz on a Wednesday seventeen.

Speaker 2: that that was tragic because I've got a few that
Speaker 2: must leave. If that's the case, I'll keep buying Charon's
Speaker 2: on Wednesdays.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I guess thirty one was.
Speaker 4: Oh the worst was doing one of the one of
Speaker 4: the first lockdowns. I kept going to the same bottle
Speaker 4: shop and I had to start like shaking it up
Speaker 4: because they're saying I go in every day and buy
Speaker 4: the same bottle of wine. And I got to work
Speaker 4: with a guy was like, do you want me to
Speaker 4: buy you a case?
Speaker 5: Man? I was like, I need to leave.
Speaker 3: No. I had the same scenario.
Speaker 2: I kept going back to the one bottle and every
Speaker 2: time they would I'd leave and eventually they'd say see
Speaker 2: you soon.
Speaker 3: Every time.
Speaker 2: Oh well, but yeah, I know what you mean about
Speaker 2: the skincare thing, because I used to be really slack
