Speaker 1: It's a special Willan Woody podcast mini Has your kid

Speaker 1: ever over committed to something? Thirteen one oh six '

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: five is our number. Some sort of talking about if they,

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 1: you know, did they just think they were a cat

5
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: and then just continue to be a cat for like

6
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: a full year. That's the sort of area.

7
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 2: You mean that the kids that don't take off air

8
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 2: Spider Man outfit for six months?

9
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: Exactly? Yeah, right, if your kids just said it as.

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 2: Your kid over committed to something, I was like, well,

11
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 2: like they signed a contract they shouldn't have, but anyway.

12
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 1: We don't take that over there. If your child signed

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,919
Speaker 1: some weird contract, I'll take that the example.

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: Oh.

15
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 1: The reason I'm doing it is because we had a

16
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 1: woman called Julie call Us yesterday who had an example

17
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: of her child over committing to something. At a really terrible.

18
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 3: Time, we were traveling through Hong Kong Airport and my

19
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 3: little boy was about four. So they asked at customs

20
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 3: like what's your name, and instead of answering his name,

21
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 3: he started saying I am a robot and doing a

22
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 3: robot dam and they were like, move away from the

23
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 3: child things. But I couldn't understand my child, but he

24
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: just kept going with this, I am a robot hearing

25
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: his robot dam for like fifteen minutes, and.

26
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: He's still in prison and still a robot.

27
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 2: No he's not, he's not in prison.

28
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: He dropped the act. But so we were talking about

29
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: this amongst the team and I haven't heard this yet,

30
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: but our beautiful audio producer, Tim, you over committed to

31
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: something when you were a kid.

32
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I always commit to the bit. And yeah, we.

Speaker 2: Carry on, I can go on it. No no, no, no, no, no,

38
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: please don't.

39
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 4: So my dad told me that when I was really

40
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 4: really young, like maybe two or three, I got very

41
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 4: angry about I don't know, like I had to go inside,

42
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 4: I had to eat all my dinner or whatever. I

43
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 4: got so angry that I just refused to breathe. Oh

44
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 4: my god, and to the point where I passed out.

45
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: Oh my god god. And did it did it work?

46
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: Like you know, I feel like you win the argument

47
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 1: there if you pass out.

48
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely freaked him out. I was unconscious, So I'm

49
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 4: not sure if that's really a win.

50
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. True, when you break it down, it's not really

51
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: freaking out. This is what we're talking about, though.

52
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: Have you got a commitment to a bit? I actually

53
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: realized I had one my apparently I don't remember this.

54
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: My grandma's funeral.

55
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: She was she was very much a very much a.

56
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: Christian, very much into peace. It was a big theme

57
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 2: of my grandma's funeral. I was obsessed with swords at

58
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 2: the time. Interesting, and so apparently at the back of

59
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: the church, Mum tried to keep me away from the

60
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: church because I had all these swords on me and

61
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: they didn't want they swords in the church. And then

62
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 2: during like this big sermon and they're talking about peace

63
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: in Christianity, there was this son coming in through the

64
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: back of the church and there was just the silhouette

65
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: of me hoisting this sword.

66
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: Wow, so you've over committed to being a swordsman. It's

67
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: just a warmonger.

68
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: At the age of four, alright.

69
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: Six five is the number. You might have been the kid,

70
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: or it might be your kid. Yes, have they over

71
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: committed to a bit to a gag?

72
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: Oh, it's not a gag, it's a belief as a child.

73
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a belief. Yesterday, we received a call from

74
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: Julie who informed us that while going through airport security,

75
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: her son just committed to saying he was a robot.

76
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: Security freaked out. Quite a scary situation for the family,

77
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: But I enjoyed the story, so I want to hear

78
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: more of these types of stories.

79
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: That is, he wouldn't snap out of it, yeah.

80
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: For like twenty minutes. Yeah, and security like separated him

81
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: from his bearers.

82
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: Another kid that called it yesterday with the woman who

83
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: said a kid started claiming he was getting kidnapped. Yes,

84
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: while she was trying to put him in the car copstructor,

85
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: but she had to show the cops aller id.

86
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: And he committed apparently started got the fake tears going,

87
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: and everything totally wild. I've got a friend of mine

88
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: actually whose brother committed so much to mean Superman that

89
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: there's a bit of a horrific getting to the story

90
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: that's not horrific, but like got on the roof and

91
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: thought it would fly and jumped off the roof. Wow,

92
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: broke an ankle recovered perfectly, though, don't jump off roops, kids.

93
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: Let's go to Nathan here thirteen one oh six five.

102
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 5: basically he keeps proposing to her, and it got to

103
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 5: the point where my mom was like, oh, you're gonna

Speaker 1: Oh God, delete that audio. Let's go to Sharon. Sharon,

137
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: your daughter over committed to something?

138
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 7: Yes, she did. When she was about four years old.

139
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 7: She liked to pretend she was a dog, to the

140
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 7: point that she would jump up at the counter at

141
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 7: the supermarket and pant and bark. I would have to

142
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 7: pat her on the head. She called herself spooky. She'd

143
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 7: roll over on a stomach, padded. She wanted me to

144
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 7: take her on a choker chain to the shop, but

145
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 7: I told her that was illegal. Yeah, Yeah. She ate

146
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 7: a food when she could out of a bowl on

147
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 7: the floor. I had to hide the dog food because

148
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 7: she would eat it.

149
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 4: God.

150
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, Sharon, oh good twelve to eighteen months.

151
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, were you picking up her poo?

152
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 7: If she could have done that, she would have in

153
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 7: the backyard, Yes, definitely, But no I didn't have to, thankfully.

154
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 7: But yeah, she was obsessed. Everywhere we went. She dressed

155
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 7: up in dog outfits everything.

156
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: At what point do you just let your child be

157
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 2: a dog?

158
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: Look?

159
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: At what point do you sort of buy them a

163
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 7: kennel sometimes, to be honest. No, but look I didn't.

165
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,360
