Speaker 2: No, Mitch and Britt are both doing acting.
Speaker 3: They've done acting classes and they were sitting here doing something.
Speaker 4: Just hang on, let's not brush over that. Mitch and
Speaker 4: I are actually in a pilot TV series together.
Speaker 1: And I studied in New York City in a highly
Speaker 1: acclaimed theater school. You just dropped out, but I still
Speaker 1: went there and I.
Speaker 4: Was highly acclaimed school in Scotland.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, nobody's saying that you're not highly acclaimed.
Speaker 1: Guys.
Speaker 2: Clearly we've got some issues going on. But the thing
Speaker 2: we were talking about.
Speaker 3: Before we just turned the microphones on is a little
Speaker 3: tongue twister, unique new York.
Speaker 1: Go for it.
Speaker 2: You need New York, you need New York, you need you.
Speaker 2: She doesn't get you need New York, You New York.
Speaker 1: Nick, She's not one of us.
Speaker 2: It's so hard.
Speaker 3: Try and do it where you are, whatever you're doing,
Speaker 3: stop it and try and say unique New York five times.
Speaker 2: Fast.
Speaker 4: Not everyone can do it.
Speaker 1: Laura's okay, okay, get on with the show. We're all
Speaker 1: warmed up.
Speaker 3: Come all right, all right, well, thank goodness because we
Speaker 3: do have a big show for you all.
Speaker 1: Oh we do. We're crossing over. Britt doesn't know this.
Speaker 1: We're crossing over to Glasgow, Scotland today.
Speaker 4: Up with Laura.
Speaker 3: There is a man who's currently living in Scotland who
Speaker 3: has our Brittany Hockley's heart. But you know what, he
Speaker 3: doesn't have ours yet, So we need to get to
Speaker 3: the bottom of it.
Speaker 1: We're going to brill your new men.
Speaker 4: I can't wait for that. Well, I've got something that's
Speaker 4: gotten under my skin. It's a TikTok and it's given
Speaker 4: me the big time.
Speaker 1: This is the pick up around Australia for your Friday afternoon.
Speaker 1: Friday Afternoon with the pick Up, Britt, Laura and mitchere
Speaker 1: purchase any fragrance from Chemist Warehouse this Valentine's Day and
Speaker 1: receive free fast delivery. It ends the fourteenth Feb three pm.
Speaker 1: There is a.
Speaker 4: Woman that has left people, including my absolutely gobsmacked money
Speaker 4: sharing in a relationship. This woman has come out in
Speaker 4: her TikTok and she has described the moment she was
Speaker 4: builled proper invoice build on an Excel spreadsheet by her
Speaker 4: partner for three dollars and twenty three cents. They've gone
Speaker 4: to his mother's house for a couple of days, three
Speaker 4: or four days, just to hang out. So she turns
Speaker 4: up with a basket of stuff soaps and wines and
Speaker 4: all this nice stuff to say a gift, to be like, hey,
Speaker 4: I'm coming to stay. Thank you. During these couple of days,
Speaker 4: they take her out for quite an expensive dinner, purely
Speaker 4: because they're being nice. The dinner was expensive, like we
Speaker 4: don't want to pay well, thank you for staying lovely. Now,
Speaker 4: it's not uncommon, apparently for the boyfriend to send a
Speaker 4: spreadsheet of finances as how he keeps track right, But
Speaker 4: usually it's normal things they've decided in a relationship with
Speaker 4: that's how they spoither fin.
Speaker 1: I do that with my partner. You and Maddi, Laura
Speaker 1: would have a similar thing with your finances.
Speaker 2: Yeah together.
Speaker 4: Fair Well, they get home from the weekend, she gets
Speaker 4: the spreadsheet from the expenses from the weekend, and she
Speaker 4: sees a three dollars and twenty three charge for breakfast.
Speaker 4: So she says, hey, babe, what's the three dollars twenty
Speaker 4: three for? He said, oh, well, you had a piece
Speaker 4: of toast and a banana at my mom's house for breakfast,
Speaker 4: so you have to pay.
Speaker 2: Us for that?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Yes, oh no, I wish I was kidding.
Speaker 4: He charged her three dollars for one piece of bread.
Speaker 4: Could you imagine? This is one line?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Is it a joke?
Speaker 1: No, this is not. This is he didn't even pay
Speaker 1: for it. His mum paid for it. It was her stock,
Speaker 1: it was her bread and banana.
Speaker 4: He's money laundering.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the real issue. I'm sorry, this is not true.
Speaker 1: Something similar happened to me this weekend. This is true.
Speaker 1: I went out to lunch with a friend and we
Speaker 1: got a Vietnamese pork roll. And then later that night,
Speaker 1: at at nine pm, she messaged me and said, hey,
Speaker 1: can you please transfer me the money for lunch? And
Speaker 1: I went, oh, yeah, how much? Seven dollars?
Speaker 2: Do you know what?
Speaker 3: Though, I'm gonna say this because I think it's very
Speaker 3: easy to make jokes about people who do ask for
Speaker 3: money because you want to be generous, you know. I
Speaker 3: think most people don't feel comfortable asking for a small
Speaker 3: amount of money. But if somebody is asking for a
Speaker 3: small amount, it could be that they're having a bit
Speaker 3: of hard time with their finances and that seven dollars
Speaker 3: is quite important to Oh, of course, your friend was
Speaker 3: bloody broke and she needed that seven bucks.
Speaker 1: She pulled up in her brand new BMW X series.
Speaker 1: She's doing just fine. She doesn't need the seven.
Speaker 4: It's a true point, Laura, because if somebody's buying somebody
Speaker 4: a lunch, right, it's only you seven dollars yesterday. But
Speaker 4: if she bought all of us every day of the
Speaker 4: week a lunch at the end of the week, it
Speaker 4: adds up. But okay, that's one thing, but this is different.
Speaker 4: You're in a relations you're together. It was three dollars
Speaker 4: for a piece of bread that she ate at your
Speaker 4: mum's house after she brought a gift and took it
Speaker 4: to dinner.
Speaker 1: This is cooked.
Speaker 4: I'd have the ick and I'd be tapping out.
Speaker 3: I think if somebody sent me an invoice for three
Speaker 3: dollars twenty three and they were my boyfriend, I think
Speaker 3: I'd be having to break up with them.
Speaker 4: I'm tapping out.
Speaker 1: Like what happens when they get to the engagement? Will
Speaker 1: he invoice for the wedding ring.
Speaker 4: Yes, that he bought her.
Speaker 2: That he bought her half fifty percent, right down the middle.
Speaker 1: I don't know when they go to the baby we
Speaker 1: have a baby in the hospital, will he invoice her
Speaker 1: for the hospital bills?
Speaker 2: No, she'll invoiced him because he did that to her.
Speaker 2: Let's remember that I'm a bit of her.
Speaker 4: It comes out in the wash in a relationship. So anyway,
Speaker 4: I think that it's safe to say that he is
Speaker 4: now an ex That's so funny.
Speaker 1: I don't believe this is true. Like I do not
Speaker 1: believe a three dollar charge in a relationship exists totally.
Speaker 3: Well, you think this TikTok was completely fabricated, But on TikTok,
Speaker 3: how fifty percent of it is?
Speaker 1: I don't think it's real. So if you can call
Speaker 1: us right now, and I mean, I know this wasn't planned,
Speaker 1: but let's open the lines. Let's see thirteen one oh
Speaker 1: sixty five has a partner in your relationship charged you
Speaker 1: for a minuscule amount. Well, see if we can get
Speaker 1: some real ones. Next here at the pickup. It's the
Speaker 1: pickup with Britt, Laura and Mitch for your Friday head
Speaker 1: into Chemist warehouse today, great savings every day. We're doing
Speaker 1: a little like a pole of the people at me
Speaker 1: ladies right now.
Speaker 4: Well, we want to know how people split their finances
Speaker 4: because as a lady on TikTok Long story short, she
Speaker 4: got an invoice from her partner for three dollars and
Speaker 4: twenty three cents for a piece of toast and a
Speaker 4: banana that she ate at his mother's house.
Speaker 2: Like, what petty amount of money did your partner ask
Speaker 2: you for? That's all you want to know.
Speaker 1: Hi, Kylie, Kylie, what happened?
Speaker 5: Hi? So I was nineteen and I just got this job,
Speaker 5: one of my jobs at Macker's right and just start
Speaker 5: as rooster us. I was really excited. And so my

Speaker 5: and she's I said to him, Oh, can you just
Speaker 5: come in just buy a coffee that you want because
Speaker 5: I want to show you, you know how good I'm
Speaker 5: getting in no worry. And so I was really excited
Speaker 5: and made him like a mocker and it was city
Speaker 5: likes it. And then in the ca like, oh can
Speaker 5: I have that money back for the coffee that I
Speaker 5: just bought myself? And I said, oh, okay, and then
Speaker 5: that relationship didn't release. Laugh.
Speaker 2: I mean did he say it was a good coffee
Speaker 2: or was it a terrible coffee? So he wanted his
Speaker 2: money back.
Speaker 5: He was so sweet, he was like, oh, it's so nice,
Speaker 5: so nice. And then later on he's like, so can
Speaker 5: I have the money back? Foot that you made me
Speaker 5: buy myself for coffee and he got to enjoy it.
Speaker 2: So Darley is expecting a free bee.
Speaker 1: That that shocks me that it's real. Joe's called through.
Speaker 1: I can't believe we're We're getting so many calls.
Speaker 3: Hi Joe.

Speaker 6: asked him for change because it was back in the
Speaker 6: day when the vending machines didn't accept the course cards,
Speaker 6: and he give me coins, got the water, and then
Speaker 6: after a few days he asked me for the coins back.
Speaker 2: Wait, you're married to him? Yeah, what happened? Where did
Speaker 2: you go wrong?
Speaker 6: So?
Speaker 1: Why was he sitting for three days?
Speaker 6: I know, Oh it got worse honestly.
Speaker 2: But yeah, okay, no, no, no. What's he like with his finances?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 2: Do I share everything? Or is he still a bit
Speaker 2: of a scrooge.
Speaker 6: Oh, he's a scrooge with everything but himself.
Speaker 2: Basically, I can't believe this is real.
Speaker 1: That shocks me that these people are around.
Speaker 4: The only time it happened to me, and it was
Speaker 4: it was twenty dollars, not three dollars. I was twenty dollars.
Speaker 4: Had us back, but I was no, But I was
Speaker 4: on a date. He invited me on the date, bought
Speaker 4: me a sandwich. It was a lunch date. And then
Speaker 4: I had to stop an ATM and give him twenty dollars.
Speaker 4: I think I paid more.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It wasn't even half.
Speaker 2: I think gave him out of your life.
Speaker 1: And I was like, why did you? Yeah, why did
Speaker 1: you ask me to date? You pay interest on the
Speaker 1: sandwich cash? Yeah, I had to go in pack cash. Well,
Speaker 1: lucky you're not dating anymore, Britt. You've got a brand

Speaker 1: have the show with a little treat, didn't we.

Speaker 3: probably time to get to know Ben well.

Speaker 4: did not know this was happening.
Speaker 7: I am so confused right now.
Speaker 1: Don't be confused. All Laura and I want to do
Speaker 1: is make sure that your intentions are pure. So but
Speaker 1: you just sit there. This is not your time to
Speaker 1: talk to Ben, because God knows you talk enough as
Speaker 1: you think.
Speaker 4: We just give him a quick disclaimer like love you
Speaker 4: are on radio, like just so you know.
Speaker 3: I have a few questions. I only have Britt's best
Speaker 3: welfare at heart. Britt, you originally said that Ben was
Speaker 3: very adamant against doing a long distance relationship, but then
Speaker 3: you change your mind.
Speaker 2: What was it that made you change your mind?
Speaker 7: Yeah, thanks for bringing up I think it's Brett that
Speaker 7: kind of kind of changed it. You know, kind of
Speaker 7: a guy that goes by the feeling and all that
Speaker 7: kind of stuff. So I think when you.
Speaker 3: Know, you know, make you feel.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it was more like a masculine thing
Speaker 7: just to kind of lena all out there and then
Speaker 7: actually you get to the soft in a bit of meat,
Speaker 7: then you kind of.
Speaker 2: Know that just how do you feel about having an
Speaker 2: open relationship?
Speaker 7: Yeah? Hard no from my side, So which kind of.
Speaker 4: I was like, hey, what do you think about? And
Speaker 4: he was like I didn't finish, like, no, no, doult
Speaker 4: not happening.
Speaker 2: What or when will you be moving to Australia?

Speaker 7: months ago and kind of fell in love with it,
Speaker 7: so it'll be soon enough fell in love with Australia.
