00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 2: Welcome to Wiggle Talk, a podcast for parents. Hello everybody,

5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 2: My name is Locke and I am the Purple Wiggle.

6
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 3: Hello everyone, my name is Simon and I am the

7
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 3: Red Wiggle Locke. Yes, I've got a new morning routine. Really, yes, excellence,

8
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 3: this is what we're here for. Yeah, I've decided. Well,

9
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 3: you know, I was informed by an unqualified person on Instagram. Yes,

10
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 3: to do a glass of salty water in the morning,

11
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 3: of warm salty water to drink, to drink, and apparently

12
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 3: it's really good for your digestion, for your overall health,

13
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 3: your well being. You can't do table salt. You've got

14
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 3: to do like you him, a pink salts or something,

15
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 3: a couple of pinches, not so it's over like, not

16
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 3: like you know you've got. It's got to be manageable,

17
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 3: and apparently it's excellent for you. I'm not a dog.

18
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 3: Please don't follow my advice anyone, because I really have

19
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 3: no proof. I haven't felt any different and it was

20
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 3: from an unqualified person on Instagram, But I did do

21
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 3: research about it and apparently it's a thing. Even just

22
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 3: a warm glass of water in the morning on an

23
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 3: empty stomach, or this is on an empty stomach is

24
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 3: the best thing, one of the best things you can do, wow,

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 3: for your body, for your circulation. So salt as well,

26
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: like it's electrolytes, right, so if you're working hard too,

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 3: you're putting the salts back in your body, which we

28
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: tend to get from more sugary drinks which have the

29
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 3: electrolytes in it, so eradicating that that's meant to be

30
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 3: good for your body. You could put a bit of lemonade.

31
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: Are you boiling the kettle? Well, we have one of

32
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 3: those instant so yeah. So I put a little dash

33
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: of hot yep to dissolve the salt, pinchers in the salt,

34
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: stir it around, and then fill the rest up with

35
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 3: some cold water so it's warm, right, and I drink

36
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 3: it and little bit of gargling, swish it around the mouth,

37
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 3: and that's how I'm starting my day, Okay. I tend

38
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,119
Speaker 3: to mix a little bit of salty water hot water,

39
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 3: get a knife out of the drawer, and mix it

40
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: with that knife. Is that now a dirty knife? Oh?

41
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 2: No, No, that's probably the cleanest clean knife.

42
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. I haven't known what to do with it. I

43
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: put it in the sink and I wash it. But no, no,

44
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: just wipe it down and put it back in the drawer.

45
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: Use it for your edge of my toast. Yeah, that's true.

46
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: Extra salt. That wouldn't be dirty as you lick it. Yeah,

47
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 3: I haven't. No, it's just stirred salty water. I've been

48
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 3: unsure whether that is now class is a dirty knife

49
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: or not. You could air dry that. Don't put it

50
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: straight strap of the drawer, put it in the air fryer,

51
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: the air dryer. Yeah. Okay, Well that's good. That's my

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: new routine.

53
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I'm interested. Does it send you to the

54
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 2: toilet more?

55
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it hasn't, okay, but I think that's

56
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: as well. I'm pretty I'm quite regular anyway regardless, so

57
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 3: I don't That hasn't changed a lot. That's good. I

58
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 3: used to have a bit of anxiety on the tour bus.

59
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 3: It's amazing what your mind can do, how you can

60
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: work through things. A bit of that tour bus anxiety

61
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: because I'm a very regular morning person. Right, And if

62
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 3: we spend the night on a bus and we're still

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 3: driving and you can't do number twos in the bus.

64
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 3: We've discussed before, but it's amazing what your mind can do,

65
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 3: you know. And then when you get closer, it's really

66
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 3: got a key into that bus driver takes that last

67
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 3: wrong turn. I know. Yeah, anyway, that's that's it. That's okay, Well,

68
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: keep going for the Because you're you're a big you're like,

69
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 3: you've got your water things going on. You don't do

70
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: plastic bottles. Shake your water because it ignites the well shelf.

71
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: Water just sits, doesn't it. Yeah, that's not like the ocean,

72
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: and the ocean ever sits. No, ocean constantly flows, like

73
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: your body constantly flows.

74
00:03:58,400 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I shake my water.

75
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 2: I actually haven't done that for I'm going to do that.

76
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: Thank you so much. Shaking it put a bit of

77
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 3: salt in it.

78
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 2: You kind of said, I do bottled water, glass bottled water,

79
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: which is getting increasingly hard to find. And then I

80
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: find I just don't drink water, which is probably not

81
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 2: very good. But then you've you've come to tell me

82
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 2: that even the old lids on the glass bottle release

83
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 2: a little bit of plastic into the bottle.

84
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is from another unqualified sauce. I'm hoping apparently

85
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: you know the plastics, which is why you want to

86
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 3: stay away from plastics. They have glass bottle, yes, but

87
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:36,239
Speaker 3: the lid of the lid releases plastics into the water. Anyway,

88
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: and they've done tests and there's just as much plastic

89
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 3: in your glass bottled water as your plastic bottle water.

90
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 3: But once again, please nobody take my word for any

91
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: of this. I'm going to do it reources like myself.

92
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: Drill into the bottle at the top and just put a.

93
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 3: Storing when you drill. That's glass.

94
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: Drink.

95
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 3: Anyway, that's on your routine. I might do a bit

96
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 3: more research, yep, but so far have any benefits or

97
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: anything worse, So I think it's going well.

98
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, you are replacing your soul, so yes, that's

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: that's right.

100
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. And I have having some calf issues lately. Well yes, yeah, anyway,

101
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: we'll talk about that later. Wigle Talk, Talk Talk, Wigle Talk.

102
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 3: It's the Wiggle authorized by Simon Lockey.

103
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: We are here to take your questions, your dilemmas and

104
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: the very real things that our children mirror back to us,

105
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: whether we like it or not, and today's one is

106
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 2: very relatable because toddlers don't just copy our words, they

107
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 2: copy our feelings. Now Catherine has written in from Yorkshire

108
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: with a question about fears, phobias and spiders. We did

109
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: that great song.

110
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 3: And we different Friendly Little Spider build it and Ash

111
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 3: was in that, yeah, he was, Yeah, that's right.

112
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: I'm on the Halloween. That was a very good Simon song.

113
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 3: Thank you, Locky. So it's a letter from Katherine, says, Hi,

114
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: Simon and Lockey. I'm a mum to almost three year

115
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 3: old daughter and she's now at the stage of copying

116
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 3: and picking up everything we say and do. I have

117
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: a few little phobias, from being scared of spiders to

118
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: not being able to walk in swimming pool, changing room

119
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 3: floors barefoot. Weird, I know, Katherine, not that weird. I'm

120
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: with you. That's a Simon classic. Yeah, that's a Simon classic.

121
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 3: Now I'm becoming more conscious of these and trying so

122
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: hard to overcome them so I don't pass them on

123
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 3: to my daughter. Is there anything like this you have

124
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 3: experienced and how have you approached it? Have you embraced

125
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 3: being scared and explained it to the children or tried

126
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 3: to overcome it.

127
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: The first thing that comes to mind, Catherine is we

128
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: were at a like a fair, her country fair recently.

129
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 3: I hadn't finished. Oh, Jenna, that's my daughter. She loves spiders,

130
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 3: and at the she absolutely loves spiders and at the

131
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 3: moment always wants to keep them when she finds one.

132
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 3: So it's been tricky to overcome because Catherine, she's saying

133
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: she has a fear of spiders. Thankfully, we don't have

134
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 3: spiders too big or dangerous over here in the UK. Help.

135
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 3: That's from Katherine.

136
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 4: Now, Lucky you're saying, I'm very sorry, that's okay, apologies,

137
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 4: no problem, No, But what I was going to say

138
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 4: was that children don't necessarily find these things scary.

139
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 2: Because we were at a country fair a while ago

140
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: with my mum, so the kid's grandma and I went

141
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 2: off to get some tickets for some of the rides

142
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 2: and came back and Grandma had got a snake from

143
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: the snake man who was showing the snake around, and

144
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: the girls were patting it and absolutely freaked me out.

145
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,239
Speaker 2: But there they were just padding this lovely snake and going, oh, daddy,

146
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: it feels so soft, and I'm like, great, that is excellent.

147
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: I'm walking over to buy some more tickets because they

148
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: scare me. But it's funny what we do in our minds. Yeah,

149
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: And Catherine said that there's no really dangerous spiders in

150
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 2: the UK, so that they're not going to bite you, no,

151
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: but they do just freak you out.

152
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: Well they do it. I mean it's a look at

153
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 3: it and everything. And like everything, we get greater fears

154
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 3: the older we get, and so when you're younger, you

155
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 3: start you're experiencing things for the first time. It's like

156
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 3: going on a ride at a theme park. Now to me,

157
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 3: that's frightening. And Ash is having a great time because

158
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 3: he doesn't understand the consequences. I'm thinking, I'm looking at

159
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 3: all the bolts to see if they're starting to shake

160
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 3: and starting to get loose. Where he's not thinking about

161
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 3: those things, and I guess it's the same things with spiders.

162
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: But like Catherine's saying, children of that age and even Asher,

163
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 3: you know, he's nearly five, but he still does it.

164
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 3: It's that modeling behavior and copying our behavior, and so

165
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 3: it is a really tricky thing to do when you

166
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: have a fear of something, to not show that fear

167
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 3: to influence how your child's going to respond to it,

168
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: as long as they're safe. For me, I'm not a

169
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 3: fan of spiders. I'm okay with them, but I'm not

170
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 3: a fan of them, and I don't want to pick

171
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,599
Speaker 3: one up. I don't want to have one crawling on me.

172
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 3: All those kinds of things. But I will say to

173
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: Asha that spiders make me a little bit nervous, but

174
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 3: there's nothing to be scared of as long as we

175
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: don't cause a reaction. The spiders won't hurt us if

176
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 3: we don't hurt them, basically, And so I kind of

177
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: I think it's important for children to understand that as adults,

178
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 3: we do feel nervous about things, we do feel uncomfortable

179
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 3: about things. But you've also then give the alternative and

180
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 3: a reason why you might but what the outcome can

181
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: be if you behave in a certain way.

182
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: And maybe it helps to kind of in that same

183
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: vein of children are naturally curious, but if you can

184
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 2: be curious and talk about it together and learn something

185
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 2: about the animal. I mean, you do have to talk

186
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: to your children about the actual dangerous ones which we

187
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 2: have a lot here in Australia and what not to

188
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 2: touch redbacks, or if you see something with that does

189
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 2: look dangerous, you don't touch it. But a lot of

190
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 2: these house spiders are just looks scary but aren't going

191
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 2: to be dangerous. But that might help too by talking

192
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: to them, and yes, definitely acknowledging your fear, but then

193
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 2: also having a conversation about what they do and where

194
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: they live, and what they're in their house for and

195
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 2: their little web and what they eat and all those

196
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 2: things which might help maybe not overcome your fear very much.

197
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: But there's a spy that's living in a tree at

198
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 3: home at the back, and Ash has been a bit

199
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 3: funny about it. It's black and yellow spider, so it

200
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 3: kind of looks a bit and it just sits there innocently.

201
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 3: It's in its web, doesn't do anything, doesn't It really

202
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 3: doesn't actually move that much either. And Asher was wanting

203
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 3: me to get it to remove it, and so I

204
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 3: had a pool noodle And now I'm I was a

205
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 3: bit scared about because it did look a bit exotic.

206
00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 3: I should have googled, gone to my unqualified sources about

207
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 3: what spider this might be. We got the pool noodle

208
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 3: and was reaching up into the bush. This is from

209
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: me in the pool. And so I've got it, and

210
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 3: I'm reaching up into the bush with this pool noodle

211
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,719
Speaker 3: and of course it latches onto the pool noodles and

212
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 3: then starts running down the pool noodle. Yes, but you

213
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: know what's fascinating, which of it we talked? I talked

214
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 3: to Ash you about spiders can swim? Have you seen that? No,

215
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 3: they're like a little they like a little buoyancy vest.

216
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 3: And this thing was literally crawling across the water towards me,

217
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: and Catherine was saying about just keep your calm, keep

218
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 3: your Simon has never swam a fast no. But I

219
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 3: got it back onto the pool noodle. I managed to

220
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 3: wrangle it and then took my Now, my initial response

221
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 3: then was to squash this thing, but I can't. I

222
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 3: didn't want to do that either, because I didn't want

223
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 3: to show Asher that that's what you do to spiders.

224
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 3: And so, you know, we just released it back into

225
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 3: the wild, so it's there somewhere. But yeah, yeah, I

226
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 3: was scared. And I said to Asher that did scare

227
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 3: me a little bit when it was running towards me. Yes,

228
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 3: And he was kind of blatched on behind me sort of,

229
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 3: and it got me in a choke hole for protection.

230
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 3: And I said to him, you know what, I think

231
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 3: the lesson that we learned from this is probably just

232
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 3: we should have just left it where it was. How

233
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 3: long ago was that? It was only a few days ago?

234
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 2: Yea, Because I feel like Spider's very good at coming

235
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 2: back to there.

236
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 3: Sah, yeah, yeah, he just read his web still there.

237
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 3: A few little bits were broken from the attack of

238
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 3: the pool mood. I'll be patched up in no time. Yeah, well,

239
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: I think so. He'll pull noodle defense. So I mean, look,

240
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: this is all about spiders, you know, and that Catherine,

241
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 3: that was one of your you know, but germs. You

242
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 3: can't see germs. That's another thing Katherine was talking about

243
00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 3: the community on sandals. I always make sure ashes wearing

244
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 3: at the swimming pool after he swims and goes into

245
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 3: the communal change area, puts his crops back on or

246
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 3: his thongs or whatever, because I do explain it's the

247
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 3: same concept of washing your hands and germs around. It's

248
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 3: just part of cleanliness and it's important to do. And

249
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 3: you've got a bit of a germ phobia, lucky, Yes,

250
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 3: and I remember the same, So I don't put it

251
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: in those terms. To Asher, No, I just say the

252
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 3: importance of cleanliness and that there are germs around that

253
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 3: we can't see. We need to make sure that our

254
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: feed are clean, our hands are clean, and we don't

255
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 3: go lying on bathroom floors. I definitely don't lie on

256
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 3: bathroom floors.

257
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: I just remembered in New Zealand, last time we were there,

258
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 2: we spent a few extra days and we went up

259
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: that horrifying big what do you call it?

260
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 3: It's like a ski.

261
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 2: Lift, but oh yeah, it went so it almost went

262
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: vertical up. It's in what's the holiday Queenstown, but it

263
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: literally went up, but the big concrete pillars you could

264
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 2: still see. It wasn't like they'd cleared the trees up there,

265
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 2: assive steep mountain. And we went on it all together

266
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 2: as a family, and the girls and Jasper naturally just

267
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: start like rocking in it, and I couldn't just please

268
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 2: do not rock.

269
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 3: And they knew I was scared.

270
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 2: And now they say it all the time, you're scared

271
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: of heights, but that freaks me out. And that was

272
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 2: a moment where I couldn't hide my yeah, because they

273
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 2: just sit there so innocently, just like moving this scene shaky,

274
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 2: Please please stop.

275
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 3: Do you feel like your fear of heights is related

276
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 3: to them at all? Or they just understand that you

277
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 3: have it?

278
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: But I think so they're they're okay, and I hope

279
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 2: they don't have have that.

280
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: But you're not great with lifts like going into a list, No,

281
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: same thing. Please don't jump in a lift. No, they're

282
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 3: totally fine with lifts. You do you express to them

283
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: that you have a concern about lifts or you just

284
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 3: breathe and so they don't know about it.

285
00:14:51,040 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: I tend to take the stairs floor. Literally, I've said

286
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: to data, would would you're happy to take the lift

287
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 2: because I'm like the stairs, which is so in your

288
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 2: in your head.

289
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've seen you many a hotel with you, you're

290
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 3: twenty five k back. Could work out, yeah, lugging up

291
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 3: the stairs, yep. But they don't have it. They're fine.

292
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: Do they know that you have a fear of yeah, yeah, okay,

293
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 3: So obviously they're quite big fears for you the height

294
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 3: and the lift, and they understand that you have a

295
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 3: fear of them, but they haven't picked up on it

296
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: or modeled that behavior. So there's something positive to say

297
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 3: in that. There is, But also I think because you've

298
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 3: probably been open about it. Yeah, this is something daddy experiences.

299
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 3: It doesn't mean you have to experience. Yes, yes, that's okay.

300
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: You're doing an excellent job as a parent, a.

301
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: Far from sting them in the lift or they get

302
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: there quicker.

303
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: Yeah they yeah, they do, and then they're just left

304
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 3: alone the lift doors open up and they wait for

305
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 3: you to come up sweating.

306
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: Well, Catherine, like always, we really hope that helped.
