Speaker 1: Laura, come on there, Hello ladies, High Australia.
Speaker 2: Hello everybody, I'm here, Ty Laura.
Speaker 1: Happy Monday, see into extra coffee. You're exhausted.
Speaker 2: What did you just say? Is it happy Monday?
Speaker 3: Because I so jet flagg still I haven't slept in days,
Speaker 3: not exaggerating.
Speaker 4: This jet lag has like cooked me. You look pretty
Speaker 4: good for someone who's that jet lagged. But that's that's
Speaker 4: the absolute peak of compliments you're gonna get from me today.
Speaker 2: But you look great strict one a day I realized,
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm being too nice to you.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: You don't come back from Romania. How many flights to
Speaker 1: Romania too?
Speaker 3: Right? Two?
Speaker 2: But huge layovers so it's like up to thirty hours
Speaker 2: of travel plus the three hours either side.
Speaker 3: But I have learned a new tool is that if
Speaker 3: you can't, the worst thing you can do is force
Speaker 3: yourself to sleep. So I've been up like watching TV
Speaker 3: and whatever else, but I have just been hooked on
Speaker 3: this series on stand. Have you heard of Your Honor?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No, I don't know your Honor.
Speaker 2: That's what it's called Your Honor.
Speaker 3: There's two seasons it Originally the first season came out
Speaker 3: a couple of years ago. I love crime, but I'm
Speaker 3: not usually a thriller person, but this is a thriller.
Speaker 3: And what it is is like, it's about this American
Speaker 3: mafia family and their relationship they have with a judge.
Speaker 3: The judge he hang on, it gets, it's hectic, it's
Speaker 3: about the like, it's about the extent that you'd go
Speaker 3: to as a as a parent. So the judge's son
Speaker 3: accidentally does a hit.
Speaker 1: I've heard about this. I've got Brian Cranston in that,
Speaker 1: yesible and he's so good.
Speaker 3: But he does a hit and run and kills the
Speaker 3: mafia boss's son, and then he's trying to protect his
Speaker 3: son from the mafia and it gets all very involved.
Speaker 2: But it's it's brilliant.
Speaker 4: And this is why you're not sleeping. It's because you're
Speaker 4: spending all your time watching TV. Correct Yeah, okay, great,
Speaker 4: but I claim.
Speaker 1: It on that.
Speaker 2: I can't recommend it enough. If you guys are looking
Speaker 2: for a show, stand.
Speaker 1: Good record, Yeah you're on it now and stand. I
Speaker 1: love that. Brit spends one week in Romania and she
Speaker 1: comes back and she's like, I love crime, I love
Speaker 1: criming checks out.
Speaker 2: Actually it's probably.
Speaker 1: Why all right? Next we've got Pickup put down, big gouss.
Speaker 1: Katie Perry performing in the AFL Grand Final this weekend.
Speaker 1: There's drama surrounding her performance.
Speaker 2: Is there?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Why are we going to talk about her now?
Speaker 1: Katie's been gagged? No, she hasn't been gagged, your honor,
Speaker 1: she's been gagged. Yeah, I let me tell you about
Speaker 1: it next on the pickup, pick up, Yeah, pick up,
Speaker 1: put down? We do it Mondays and Wednesdays, the big
Speaker 1: topics that Australia is talking about. I bring it to
Speaker 1: you Britain, Laura, and you decide whether we pick it
Speaker 1: up we keep talking about it, or we put it down.
Speaker 1: We never speak about it again.
Speaker 2: What have you got for us today? And it's chruie.
Speaker 1: We don't know how to feel about these girls pick
Speaker 1: Up put down, Senior muck Up days being over?
Speaker 2: Why pick it up? I'm going to say, pick it up?
Speaker 2: Do you know why?
Speaker 4: Because I graduated school twenty one years ago, twenty one
Speaker 4: years ago, two decades and when I was at school
Speaker 4: they canceled our senior muck up so and I survived.
Speaker 2: It was fine.
Speaker 4: So I think if it's been canceled twenty years ago,
Speaker 4: it doesn't surprise me that all this time later, it's
Speaker 4: now been canceled by well, well, a group.
Speaker 1: Of senior girls in Sydney, an elite high school. They've
Speaker 1: ditched the pranks which you normally do at the end
Speaker 1: of your graduation. Yeah, muck up day and you do
Speaker 1: the gender bender costumes whatever. They've now swapped it out.
Speaker 1: Britt you, I'll love this for a senior sunrise where
Speaker 1: all the students wake up at five am. They go
Speaker 1: and watch the sun rise and they hold hands and
Speaker 1: they commemorate the seven or six years of schooling they've
Speaker 1: all shd.
Speaker 2: I'm picking it up.
Speaker 3: If you need to hide behind a door and float
Speaker 3: and throw like glue and flour on your teacher in
Speaker 3: order to graduate to the adult world, I think you
Speaker 3: have issues.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I agree. It's very very like life, isn't it. It's
Speaker 2: very toom girls.
Speaker 4: But no, it's really to meals old. I graduated two
Speaker 4: decades ago.
Speaker 1: Now where we Yeah, we're across all right? Pick up down?
Speaker 1: Getting a text from your boss while you're on holidays,
Speaker 1: Why put it down?
Speaker 2: I don't like getting text from the boss when what happened?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a viral TikTok a boss has been slammed
Speaker 1: for texting any employee while they're on a holiday, and
Speaker 1: he put it on TikTok.
Speaker 5: Hi Tom, hope you're having a great time on your holes.
Speaker 5: No need to reply right now, but I just want
Speaker 5: to keep you in the loop. We had a visit
Speaker 5: from the area manager. Andy's pissed about our numbers. I
Speaker 5: think you're going to have to have some really tough
Speaker 5: meetings when you're back. Oh my god, have you said
Speaker 5: not is holiday?
Speaker 1: Hi?
Speaker 5: Dave just seen this. This's got me a little concerned. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you're telling me. Shall we have a call? Like I said,
Speaker 5: I don't want you to worry whilst John your break.
Speaker 5: Why did you message.
Speaker 2: That's the worst? What is the point of putting that
Speaker 2: anxiety into someone?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I agree, Dave sounds like a terrible manager. Don't don't
Speaker 2: manage the way that Dave managers.
Speaker 1: I agree, all right? Pick up? Put down. Katy Perry
Speaker 1: apparently not being allowed to play any of her new
Speaker 1: music this weekend at the AFL Grand Final.
Speaker 2: Why that's true? Me pick it up?
Speaker 4: But the old music is better? Am I allowed to
Speaker 4: say that it's better?
Speaker 2: But why How can you say to someone that they
Speaker 2: can't sing.
Speaker 1: Their new music. A footy journalist has revealed that the
Speaker 1: AFL apparently asked Katie Perry to only play her biggest
Speaker 1: songs from her discography. They wanted to play like.
Speaker 2: Raw, bang up, fireworks, you can't beat it now.
Speaker 1: Of course they want a bit of.
Speaker 4: That raw again, But instead she has requested what about
Speaker 4: I Kissed the Girl? That feels particularly no, No, she
Speaker 4: wants to play which is the new one that hasn't
Speaker 4: been received that well. The thing is, Katie Perry love
Speaker 4: her Her old songs are such absolute bangers, and like
Speaker 4: this one just didn't hit the same. And if you're
Speaker 4: paying a lot of money to have her performance something
Speaker 4: it's not her performance, then I think you could kind
Speaker 4: of potentially dictate what it is that she performs.
Speaker 3: But I also think if you're asking for a performer
Speaker 3: and they have a brand new single slash album out,
Speaker 3: that they shouldn't fee allowed.
Speaker 2: To sing it. But her music, her old music was
Speaker 2: way better.
Speaker 1: They've reached a happy medium.
Speaker 2: She'd be allowed to kiss a girl on station No.
Speaker 1: She'll play one new song and the rest will be
Speaker 1: the greatest hits.
Speaker 4: That sounds like a great compromise from the feedback from
Speaker 4: the new music. I would say that's probably in her
Speaker 4: best interest.
Speaker 1: She's in Australia already, like she could be listening to
Speaker 1: the pick Up.
Speaker 2: Sorry, guess is coming Kylie Minogue?
Speaker 1: What a segue, Brittany, She's.
Speaker 3: Coming on her tour here the new album. She's such
Speaker 3: a queen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's iconic. It's the Tension Tour coming to Australia
Speaker 1: for shows nationally. Frontier presale starts I started jest at
Speaker 1: actually Tuesday. All tickets on sale October second. For details,
Speaker 1: head to Frontier Touring dot com.
Speaker 2: She's definitely going to play her old songs and her
Speaker 2: new songs, you.
Speaker 3: Know, but she's can I can I say something? I
Speaker 3: heard a conversation with her the other day in an
Speaker 3: interview where she said, I just feel like I had
Speaker 3: to disappear.
Speaker 2: For a while.
Speaker 3: I thought people were sick of me. I was everywhere
Speaker 3: and I was like, that is so sad that where
Speaker 3: as a country and made you feel like that.
Speaker 1: We love her, Noah, we love Kylie. She's back. A
Speaker 1: double pass sitting on the pick Up website now go
Speaker 1: to our wind page to Pickup dot com dot a
Speaker 1: you win a double all right, back up this, girls.
Speaker 1: I had my one year aniversary with my boyfriend Steven
Speaker 1: last week.
Speaker 3: What.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not even true.
Speaker 2: You only started dating.
Speaker 1: Like three months ago.
Speaker 2: Where the god he's been around for twenty minutes?
Speaker 1: Well did you actually, Well, we celebrated our when your anniversary,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't our when you're anniversary.
Speaker 2: Well, well that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1: It's the problem. He doesn't listen to these because he's
Speaker 1: twenty two and doesn't know how to turn on the
Speaker 1: radio so I can safely speak.
Speaker 3: It's okay when you make the age jokes, but when
Speaker 3: we make them, you hate it.
Speaker 1: I don't know. So he said, hey, we had our
Speaker 1: first date the first of September, and I was like,
Speaker 1: we did. It was a beautiful first date, and in
Speaker 1: that moment, I'm like, qu I like this guy? And
Speaker 1: then we we weren't official for a solid six months
Speaker 1: from the first date.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you weren't official. You were very unofficial. You
Speaker 4: were still potentially dating other people.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, loosely, yeah, yeah, yeah, the waters are very
Speaker 1: very much.
Speaker 2: It's very great.
Speaker 3: No, you came overseas with me in that twenty what's
Speaker 3: wrong with you?
Speaker 2: Just in case he is listening and mitche I hooked up.
Speaker 1: Obviously it was what I was going to stop me
Speaker 1: up and Stephen said, hey, let's celebrate our one year
Speaker 1: on the first of September. Because in my eyes I knew,
Speaker 1: I knew you were for me on the first.
Speaker 2: Did you feel like a fraud?
Speaker 4: Were you like, well, even though I know we weren't
Speaker 4: really together, just because we met that day, did you
Speaker 4: feel like you were faking it?
Speaker 1: I just thought, technically it's March, Like if it was
Speaker 1: October or November, I'd be like, sure, jump forward two months.
Speaker 1: But the fact that it's a solid six months early
Speaker 1: she kind of confused me. But then he said we
Speaker 1: need to get gifts for a year gift. At this
Speaker 1: point in.
Speaker 2: Time, I think it's okay.
Speaker 4: You can celebrate whenever you want to celebrate, because no
Speaker 4: one makes the rules around when you should celebrate your relationship.
Speaker 4: But I don't think you can outwardly tell people that
Speaker 4: you've been together for a year.
Speaker 2: It's like trying to it's trying.
Speaker 4: To like get more time, like more cred that's true
Speaker 4: bread relationship.
Speaker 3: No, that's what I did. At the moment I banged
Speaker 3: my now fiance.
Speaker 2: Was irish he's not Irish, He's Swiss. I feel Swiss music.
Speaker 4: It feels very like non banging kind of music. If
Speaker 4: one year, but.
Speaker 2: The moment that we hooked up.
Speaker 3: So we hooked up for one date and I thought
Speaker 3: I would never see him again, right this, britt, this
Speaker 3: is your boyfriend's bend. Ben.
Speaker 2: We thought we would never see each other again.
Speaker 3: But that first day turns out that was we never
Speaker 3: will with anyone else again. We're obsessed with each other
Speaker 3: from the first day, so that became our anniversary. So
Speaker 3: our anniversary is the moment we did the horizontal dancer love.
Speaker 4: I do not want to have the same, Like the
Speaker 4: same reference point for anniversaries is what you guys have
Speaker 4: on My reference point for my anniversary with my husband
Speaker 4: is when he This sounds so stupid to anyone who
Speaker 4: doesn't know, he was the Bachelor a million years ago
Speaker 4: and on the show we stood on like a little
Speaker 4: magical carpet in Thailand and he said to me, Laura,
Speaker 4: I want you to be my girlfriend and I love you.
Speaker 4: And prior to that, he was making out with twenty
Speaker 4: four other women that I lived in a house with.
Speaker 2: So I don't want it to be from the date
Speaker 2: that I met him at. But looking back, I'm like, well,
Speaker 2: look it worked out.
Speaker 1: Okay, Wait, Laura, when is your anniversary with Maddie? Do
Speaker 1: you do your wedding universary?
Speaker 2: You know, we still do the anniversary when the show ended, so.
Speaker 1: We we meet the anniversary is the show ending? Yeah?
Speaker 4: We met in February, right, and then we did three
Speaker 4: months of filming where we all all the girls that
Speaker 4: were on the Bachelor, we all lived in a big
Speaker 4: house together and then they all got like yet it
Speaker 4: out one by one and then at the very end,
Speaker 4: the end of filming was what's that February? End of May,
Speaker 4: and so end of May is when we got flown
Speaker 4: to Thailand for the finale, and that's.
Speaker 2: When he dwindled down to the two. But they choose me,
Speaker 2: so that.
Speaker 1: Night, but then you hid for three months. You couldn't
Speaker 1: be seen together.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but we did long distance though, but we still
Speaker 4: actually we snuck around and we did do a couple
Speaker 4: of cheeky rendezvous during that time.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if you've seen each other. And I
Speaker 2: say that because I'm long distance. It's just the yes.
Speaker 2: So I'm feeling very attached. It's the day it don't
Speaker 2: in validaate my relationship. Seen him seven times, I don't
Speaker 2: actually know his name.
Speaker 1: All right, this is my story to start with, and
Speaker 1: now I'm the problem.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Sorry.
Speaker 2: At the end of the day, image, I just go
Speaker 2: with the flow.
Speaker 3: You don't need to budget for a gift to celebrate
Speaker 3: an anniverse if he really wants that day.
Speaker 2: Ben almost wants to change.
Speaker 3: Like sometimes we talk about changing our anniversary to suit
Speaker 3: when we're going to physically be together.
Speaker 2: Like if we're no, you can't do that. You know
Speaker 2: you're gonna change it now?
Speaker 1: People do. I've got friends that have changed their day
Speaker 1: because it's too close to their birthday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got one.
Speaker 4: What if you met on a leap year, you'd have
Speaker 4: to change it because otherwise you've only been together for
Speaker 4: one year when really it's been quite a long time.
Speaker 1: Poor Yeah fo yeah, true, that's hard. That's tricky. At
Speaker 1: the anniversary, miss thank you sir, And I'm happy. I'm
Speaker 1: very happy.
Speaker 4: Look coming up, I want to talk about something that's
Speaker 4: happening to me at the moment.
Speaker 2: I'm going through a huge parenting milestone.
Speaker 4: My daughter Marley is five years old, and if you
Speaker 4: have a child similar age, you might be in the
Speaker 4: same situation as me, and I did not expect to
Speaker 4: be here already.
Speaker 2: Put it that way, that's what happens when you do
Speaker 2: the dirty five years ago, they turn five.
Speaker 1: Now five years My month's worse than a Right after this,
Speaker 1: I'm the pickup.
Speaker 4: I've hit a point in my parenting journey that I mean,
Speaker 4: it shouldn't come as a surprise, but I truly am.
Speaker 2: I am shocked that I'm here already. And that is so.
Speaker 4: I was at home the other day and last night
Speaker 4: she was danding in the kitchen and she was singing
Speaker 4: this song and.
Speaker 2: I was like, sweetie, that's a really cute song. What's
Speaker 2: that And she goes, Mummy, it's my graduation song.
Speaker 4: So she's only five years old and she's going from
Speaker 4: preschool into kindergarten next year, and they're practicing their graduation
Speaker 4: song and it is the cutest thing I've ever heard
Speaker 4: of my entire life.
Speaker 1: That's what it is.
Speaker 3: I believe that they graduate now like they just had
Speaker 3: to pull us out of the sandpit by one leg.
Speaker 2: They're like, you're out of here after school. There was
Speaker 2: no like procedure, no ceremony. Now it's like a big thing.
Speaker 4: It's like a real orientation into school because we're doing
Speaker 4: I think it is called orientation.
Speaker 2: I don't know. This is Marley singing her graduation song.
Speaker 1: Free Full SI.
Speaker 2: Climb Their Mountain High and so she's got a backup,
Speaker 2: backup dancer star sign. Yes, don't really work out what
Speaker 2: the song is?
Speaker 1: That raining over cop seven right?
Speaker 2: Seven?
Speaker 1: Reason? It's not that guy song?
Speaker 2: Ready what a banger?
Speaker 3: Well, I think we can confirm she's not going to
Speaker 3: like a special art school. Okay, look, she's not going
Speaker 3: to performing arts. It makes me want to cry.
Speaker 4: I honestly, like, you know, I think as a parent,
Speaker 4: you kind of had these little milestones, but you're like,
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, my baby's not a baby anymore.
Speaker 2: And I know she's.
Speaker 4: Only five and she's only going into school. She hasn't
Speaker 4: quite graduated fully yet. But I just like, yeah, don't you.
Speaker 3: Remember that feeling like yourself when we had our graduation,
Speaker 3: Like when you're in year ten or year twelve, the
Speaker 3: feeling is like you laugh now but everyone's crying. You're like,
Speaker 3: my life as I know it is over.
Speaker 2: The good years are over.
Speaker 3: You're never going to see your friends again, like we
Speaker 3: dramatize it so much, not so emotional.
Speaker 4: No, it's not dramatizing. It's the biggest thing that is
Speaker 4: happening in her little life. So when we're in year twelve,
Speaker 4: we're grown ups. Also, though, you kind of look back
Speaker 4: on it and you have this moment where you're like,
Speaker 4: every time you hear your graduation song, it takes you
Speaker 4: back to that moment.
Speaker 2: I graduate. Okay, my graduation song was really dumb.
Speaker 4: I went to an all girls Catholic school, and I
Speaker 4: think we were trying to rebel and we chose I
Speaker 4: have the Tiger. Great graduation songs, the thrill of the fight.
Speaker 1: Did you guys like make it through abausive teaching? Powerful?
Speaker 1: We did it.
Speaker 4: We wore those long skirts and we made it to
Speaker 4: the other end.
Speaker 2: You know what mine was?
Speaker 3: I think very cliche. Do you want to sing it?
Speaker 3: If you want to Green Day, Hope.
Speaker 2: You have the time of your life.
Speaker 1: I'll play it.
Speaker 2: I feel I feel the emotion here, Like that takes
Speaker 2: me back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but this is like this is like good cliche,
Speaker 4: Like this was everyone's graduation song.
Speaker 3: I have the Tiger. I feel like you're in a
Speaker 3: boxing ring. Well, you know, we have survived school.
Speaker 2: That was gonna be my rhyme?
Speaker 1: Was this ready? This was mine? Year twelve, graduated twenty
Speaker 1: thirteen with Fox Coldplay, Okay, cold Play.
Speaker 4: I know, no, I know it's Coldplay, but I like
Speaker 4: this song is a graduation song of the tiger.
Speaker 1: You can't talk, but you know what else? This was
Speaker 1: also our bell, so this would play at three oh
Speaker 1: six every.
Speaker 2: Day progressive Mine was like ring, was that? Sorry?
Speaker 1: What my bell?
Speaker 5: Was?
Speaker 1: This song? Every day three o six? But we didn't
Speaker 1: have a license, so we could only play twenty seconds,
Speaker 1: so it would just cut out. Wow, wow, progressive school.
Speaker 1: We need to have a pick up, like a pickup
Speaker 1: graduation song. We need to have a song for when.
Speaker 2: We get fired we go out into the world. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it'd be like thank you next and as.

Speaker 2: be out.
