22
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: this episode at night. The episode will come out first

23
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: thing tomorrow because I wanted to share today's.

24
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 2: Experience with you.

25
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: So a few of my mates and I went to

26
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: Corumba Wildlife Hospital today and we had a behind the

27
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: scenes tour.

28
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 2: It's unreal.

29
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: These guys rehabilitate and release back into the wild.

30
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: I'm talking.

31
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: It's over fourteen thousand different animals a year and they

32
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: treat over two hundred and seventy different species. So the

33
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: vets are amazing. My dad's a vet by the way,

34
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, I.

35
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: Called Dad's right after.

36
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: I was like, Dad, the vets have to understand and

37
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: look after be able to look after two hundred and

38
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: seventy different species and animals, and Dad's like, oh, yes,

39
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: that that would be very different to an our donistic

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: clinic because Dad looks after mainly cats and dogs. Anyway,

41
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: it was awesome and I was really lucky. I got

42
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: to ring some mates and the Core News is and

43
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: I said, I give them a shout out on the

44
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: pod tonight. They're having an open day the twenty seventh

45
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: of February. All the details are on the Instagram. I've

46
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: just done an insta post of all the things we

47
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: discovered today. We actually got to see an Eastern brown

48
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: snake and he had lashings on his back because he

49
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: got whipper snippered, and he was feisty. He or she, sorry,

50
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what the sex was.

51
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:33,399
Speaker 2: It was really.

52
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: Feisty, a bit scary, actually good scary, Like we were

53
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 1: obviously behind glass, but it was the nurse that was

54
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: looking after and handling this snake was incredible because this

55
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: is considered I'm pretty sure the Eastern brown snake is

56
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: considered the most dangerous snake in the world and the

57
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: second most venomous. But like a bide is fatal and

58
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: apparently even if like just one of their fangs like

59
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: scratches you, that can be bad. So anyway, that was

60
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: really interesting to see him, get him or her get.

61
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 2: Kind of like.

62
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: They had him in a little like calico bag, got

63
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: him out, had to coax him through a little tube because.

64
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 2: Once he's in a tube, they can.

65
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: Hold his second half of the body and stop him

66
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: sliding out, and then from there they can if he

67
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: needs it, they can put him to sleep with anesthetic

68
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: and operate on him, treat him and then bring him back.

69
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: And how's this snake fact. They couldn't gas the snake

70
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: to make him fall asleep because they smell can smell

71
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: that the gas doesn't smell like normal air, and so

72
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: they'll just go stuff you and hold their breath for

73
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: minutes on end. How cool. So they actually had to

74
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: get anesthetic bya a little jab, a little inject show,

75
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: and then he fell asleep and then they had to

76
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: incubate him so help him breath more hair breathe and

77
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: then yeah, and then fix all the lacerations. Pretty curl,

78
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: pretty curl. So yeah, we learn a lot about snakes today.

79
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: There was an a kidnap. There were band accoots, which

80
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: are really cute little ringtail possum owls, eagles koalas of

81
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: course the iconic ossie koala. So yeah, it was awesome.

82
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: And these guys are run primarily on donations, so if

83
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: you want to get involved, volunteer, donate. I know that

84
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: they would be so so grateful. Also, the open day

87
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,560

88
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 1: by then it sounds like fingers crossed a little bit

89
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: of travel will be open. So it could be a

90
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: fun thing to tie into a little trip.

91
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 2: If you're going to visit.

92
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 1: Okay, from animals to food. This week we went to

93
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: like a soft launch or like a family and friends

94
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: kind of tast for a restaurant that's opening on Monday

95
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: called MVP. So Mark and Vinnie's, they've got one in Sydney.

96
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: I think this is like the arm or the sister

97
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: kind of store. It's in the main drag of Byron

98
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,239
Speaker 1: next to Cardaman Pod, So if anyone's been to Byron,

99
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: Cardman Pod is like a really iconic kind of I'm

100
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: pretty sure it's like vegetarian and Harry Krishna stylele. It's delicious.

101
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: I've been so many times and it's so yummy. I

102
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 1: always get the like desserts. I'm such a sweet tooth.

103
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: So it was unreal. It was like a part.

104
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: So their whole menu was like pastor and a groni

105
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: in chili, and there's a whole negroni menu. The cocktail

106
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: is a delish. My favorite cocktail was a spicy watermelon

107
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: Mark and it went down almost too easily, very very

108
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: very very good. So I'd recommend it even if you

109
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: just went for a cocktail. But their past was really yummy.

110
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: Lots of vegan options and I was able to stay

111
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: gluten free, So thumbs up for that. And it made

112
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: me think, do you have a favorite cocktail, because since

113
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: I've moved to Byron Bay, I have discovered my favorite cocktail.

114
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: And no, it's not a spicy mug, even though that

115
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: was delicious. When we moved up, we had two nights

116
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: staying in our mate's house and when we got in,

117
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 1: they were like, do you want a drink?

118
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 2: Do you know? Do you want a glass of champagne?

119
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: Do you want Because we just moved, it was like

120
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: welcome to am Byron.

121
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: And then they were like, do you want a martini?

122
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: And I was like, I was delirious after like ten

123
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: hours of driving or whatever with Boss, and I was like, Okay,

124
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: it was the most delicious thing I've ever had, and

125
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: now that's like I feel very adult when I order.

126
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: So I like a dry gin martini. I've had it

127
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: dirty and that's quite nice to anythink that's where I

128
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: add the olive brine. But I think I just like

129
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: a like smooth and just like really like clean, so

130
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: like that, so I think it's just the moon a

131
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: drive a mood. I could be wrong in this I'm

132
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: no guru, and then a gin and have.

133
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: It really really dry? Oh feel so adult.

134
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: And the reason why I know, I really really love

135
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: it because not just because I've been happy with my

136
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: friends here, but Boss and I went to visit Rais,

137
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: which is another really kind of iconic place in Byron.

138
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: Uber expensive but so lux and so beautiful, and it's

139
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: just on Water Goes. And usually if you've got a booking,

140
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: you've got a book really really in advance, but a

141
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: little hack the bar is always you can always get

142
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: into the bar without booking.

143
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: It doesn't take booking.

144
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: So we were just driving through water Goes one night

145
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: and we said, should we just go in and have

146
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: a little you know, sneaky we live in Byron now cocktail,

147
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: and so we did and I got a delicious gin

148
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: dry martini there. So it's officially my drink now, so

149
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,400

Speaker 1: my buyer, my Byron updates, little hack and little up

159
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: not hack, not a hack at all, little update. And

160
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: if I say it out loud, I know that I'll

161
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,199
Speaker 1: stick to it, or at least you'll be able to

162
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: help hold me a bit accountable.

163
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 2: I do the Lighthouse Walk probably like four or five

164
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 2: times a week.

165
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: It's hard if you do it from Clark's Beach, it's

166
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: quite like it's just under ten thousand steps and it's

167
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: a lot of uphills. But my goal for February is

168
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: to try and run it, and so I've been running

169
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: little chunks of it now. But yeah, it's hard, and

170
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: I like come out of it just like dripping. But yeah,

171
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: so that's my goal by February. You can hold me accountable.

172
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: So we've got some questions that have come in this week.

173
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: The first one is why does my energy change? This

174
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: is not specific to Byron, but it was like, why

175
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: does my energy change when there's a full moon versus

176
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: a new moon? So we're tomorrow, which is today for you, guys.

177
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: So today we'll be a full moon in Leo. The

178
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: twenty ninth of January's a forming Leo. So I thought

179
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: I've got a moon diary, so I just wanted to

180
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: read to you what a full moon in I've got

181
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: my notes here, howe very virgo of me even though

182
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: it's a full moon in Leo. So okay, So, if

183
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: you know anything about Leo, or you know any Leos,

184
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: Leo's are great. They're fun, they're fire, They're great with

185
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: being the center of attention. They're very comfy. Without a

186
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: lot of actors, a lot of people that are comfy

187
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: on stage, they're going to be Leo's. So creative self

188
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: with expression is linked to But I just found the

189
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: bit about when the moon moves through Leo, so I'll

190
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: read it to you. When the sun or moon moves

191
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 1: through the constellation of Leo. We enjoy knowing kindness, but

192
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: we also need more affection and recognition for ourselves. Allow

193
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: yourself to be fun, loving, courageous, and creative at this time.

194
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: Harmonious aspects to the sun or moon in Leo help

195
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: you to advance anything related to Leo. Stressful aspects can

196
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: trigger fears of being insignificant, you might act vain or proud,

197
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: snobbish or pompous, So like ways to describe at really

198
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 1: cool ways to describe Leo's as like they're really creative

199
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: of their romantic, they're generous, they're honest and frank, they're affectionate,

200
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: they're really vital, and they love performing. So as we

201
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: come into this kind of like full moon in Leo,

202
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: think about that creative aspect of yourself and just be like, okay,

203
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: so this is my time to kind of shine like

204
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: a Leo. Yeah, they're a fire sign. And then if

205
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: any of those negative thoughts coming about, like oh my

206
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: enough for.

207
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: My insignificant Da da da da da.

208
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: Last year I didn't work as much because of COVID

209
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: blah blah blah bah blah, Like, just know that that's

210
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 1: the full moon working its magic on you. A full

211
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: moon is also a chance to let go and to

212
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: let go of stuff that's no longer serving you. So

213
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: sometimes on a full moon, all right, my worries down

214
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: and burn them. You don't on a full moon necessarily

215
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: see new ideas. That's usually done on a new moon.

216
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: So we're at a full moon today, so you kind

217
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: of want to think of that idea that more cathartic

218
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 1: energy out to form in letting go. And because it's

219
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: Leo Anderji, it's fiery. Yeah, so it's not going to

220
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 1: muck about. So if it was me, I'd be like,

221
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna do something really really creative today.

222
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 2: I'm going to make myself feel good.

223
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to maybe pop it a makeup on and

224
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: just feel really sexy, you know, like those kind of

225
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: leos of fire, you know, like all those things that

226
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: make you feel good.

227
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 2: But be creative.

228
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: If you're a performer or you love before you like

229
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: just dance around the house, whatever you need to do

230
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: to evoke your inner Leo.

231
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: Today is the day.

232
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: And any of the negative self talk, any of the

233
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: doubt blah blah blah am I significant enough let that

234
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: go because the full moon is the perfect opportunity to

235
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: let that go. Anyway, I did not expect this podcast

236
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: to go down the hippi woo woo path, and it

237
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: absolutely did. I've also got other questions. I'm just gonna

238
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: put my moon book down. I might just credit the

239
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: moon book that I read that from. So it's a

240
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: moontime diary. Twenty twenty one and it's by a lady

241
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: called Iris Dentonhoff. If you want to, just dmme on

242
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 1: Insta and I'll take a photo of it for you.

243
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: It's really cool because even though I read you like

244
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: the Leo full moon bit, even on the date.

245
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: It's set like each day it says what to do.

246
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: So it's saying at today, Friday, full moonon Leo at

247
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: six sixteen am, it says, avoid operations today. Well, that's

248
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: going to be hard if you already got booked in.

249
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 1: But read more about moon lear on page thirty five,

250
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: which is exactly what we did Sunrise six thirteen am,

251
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: moon rise eight forty pm.

252
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: Cool. So yeah, it's just got like little.

253
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 1: Each day, like for tomorrow, for Saturday the thirtieth, it

254
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: says a back massage, just wonderfully relaxing today, eat light

255
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: meals today, and drink loads of water. And it says

256
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: the energy is earth root and salt, whereas the energy

257
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: for the full moon today is fire, fruit and protein.

258
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: Cool, right, very cool.

259
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: And when it said that earth root and soul, that's

260
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: that's a Virgo goes to moves into Virgo on Saturday.

261
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 2: Oh, very very interesting, because Virgo's my sign.

262
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: So we love to analyze stuff and overthink and overworry

263
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: and that's me.

264
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: Okay, So there's a few more questions.

265
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: And then I'm going to let you know what I've

266
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: got on for next week, because that will change this

267
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: Friday podcast. We will still have one, but it will

268
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: not be coming from Byron Bay. Okay, okay. So a

269
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: few other questions for the Byron Diary. Are there any

270
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: negatives about Byron? Absolutely? The traffic is mental, parking is hard,

271
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: and on the weekends, cafes add a Byron tax to everything,

272
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: so you pay ten to fifteen percent more no matter

273
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: where you go at a cafe on weekends, which feels

274
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: pretty full on unless that happens everywhere, and I'm just

275
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: oblivious to it. Other than that, Oh, one other really

276
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: negative thing I happened to Boss and I and I

277
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god. We walked into a cafe

278
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: and we were just ordering an Asai bowl because everyone

279
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: knows that that's my addiction. And this girl was literally

280
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: like hi and looked at her friend and continue to

281
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: have a conversation with someone outside the cafe, like yelling,

282
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: and Boss and I would have sitten there and we're like, hey,

283
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: can we order an asai bowl and a burger, and

284
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: she was like talking to her friend. She's like, yeah,

285
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: what was that And we were like, oh, in a

286
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: sayu bowl and a burger, and she ignored us again,

287
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: looked at the friend. I felt like I was in

288
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: a movie, you know, in those movies when you get

289
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: a really sassy teenager serving you. It was mental anyway,

290
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: said that that kind of stuff is funny and firing

291
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: a bit, I guess because it's a transient place and

292
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: people are, you know, want to do yogs or teach

293
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: jokes or do acting and stuff, and there's not like

294
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people end up not doing what they

295
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: came here to do. Like there's so many yoga teachers,

296
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: but there's only so many yoga schools.

297
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 2: Okay.

298
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: So the next one, what are the crowds like at

299
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: Bangalow in Byron in summer or on weekends. So I

300
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: live in Bangalow, which is beautiful. It's more in the hinterland,

301
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: so it's like thirty minutes out of Byron, And on

302
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: the weekends, the main road of Bangalow is pretty busy,

303
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: and if there's a big market on it's really busy.

304
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: So Saturday there's a Farmer's Market Sunday once a month

305
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: is a big market and it's pretty busy, Like it's

306
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: really hard to get a park and Boss and I

307
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 1: would only ever walk in on a weekend. Any other

308
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: day though it's pretty easy to get a park. I've

309
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: never had a problem getting a park. So I would say, yeah,

310
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: on a Saturday morning, it's going to be a bit

311
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: hard because the farmers market are on and one Sunday month,

312
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be a bit crowded. But other than that,

313
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: it's super chill. It feels like you're in a really awesome, regional,

314
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: cute little town and everyone is so friendly, like the

315
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: way that I just described you my cafe experience in

316
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: Byron that's never happened in bangs Like everyone's really chatty.

317
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 1: Everyone gets to know you, like Matt. Everyone at the

318
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: butcher knows Matt. Everyone at the post office knows Matt.

319
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: We're really now becoming really nice friends with our fave

320
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: cafe Woods in Bangalow.

321
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 2: You know, there's a.

322
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 1: Real community vibe here and everybody is so lovely. So yeah,

323
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 1: I would say just pick your days and just and

324
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: the markets are worth visiting, so yeah, like, yes, it's crowded,

325
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: but the markets are really cool. Summer en Byron was

326
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 1: really busy and it's just starting to calm down a

327
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: little bit now. But like we would swim at the

328
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 1: pass or like drive into the past which is one

329
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: of the beaches here, and you can't be lined up

330
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: all the way onto the main road and so you're

331
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: behind like twenty other cars to get a car park

332
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: in a small car park, so you'd be waiting for

333
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: ages and it's like aggressive to get to get parked.

334
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: So again in summer holidays, it's a bit tricky, but

335
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: if you're in Bangalow, that won't happen. That's like getting

336
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: to a main beach in the heart of Byron Bay.

337
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 2: But yeah, the traffic is.

338
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: Pretty full on in Byron and a good little hack

339
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: if you're ever traveling here and you've got to drive,

340
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: like say you're staying in Bangalow because Bengalo's getting quite

341
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: popular at the moment, and you're like, oh, okay, well

342
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: I still want to go into Byron to go the

343
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: beaches or take a meeting or whatever. There's a front

344
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: way in and a backway in, and we all go

345
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: the back way, and so the backway takes a little

346
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,959
Speaker 1: bit longer, but it's so beautiful and you're just entering

347
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 1: via like hinterland and it's rolling hills and it's stunning.

348
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: And no one goes that way. Everyone goes the front

349
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: way because it's a little bit quicker, but it can

350
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: get really blocked up at like those peak times of

351
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: the day. So we always go, always boss, and I

352
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: always always go the back way. So yeah, I think

353
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 1: it's down Bangalo Road. I want to say, I need

354
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: to learn my geography a bit of boss, as usually

355
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: the one driving. Have the beaches really disappeared, No, but

356
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 1: Maine Beach definitely feels worse for where I swam at

357
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: Clarks last week and the sand bags are still there,

358
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 1: but there is beach like you can totally sit on

359
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: the beach and you know, put a little brolley up

360
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 1: and have a little hang. That was fine. It's not

361
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: as much sand as like Broken Head or Brunswick Heads

362
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: or Tallow's Beach. They're massive amounts of sand and feel SuperNature.

363
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: The Byron beaches have copped it a little bit. I

364
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: haven't swam at Maine Beach, but Main Beach quickly becomes

365
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: Clarks and then Captain Cook and then the past.

366
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: I'm learning all the beaches.

367
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: Some people are going to be listening to this being like, well,

368
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: she's a full nerd Are there's still potholes in Byron?

369
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: And is it still annoying people? Yeah, there's a pole

370
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: at the end of our street, so yes, they're definitely

371
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: still here and you've got to be like kind of

372
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: onto it. And yeah, there's definitely a few potholes. And

373
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: I will say, like, you'll often be driving and see

374
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: bunches of flowers tied around poles and trees. So then

375
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: the roads, especially at nighttime, feel a little bit scary,

376
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: but during the day it.

377
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: Feels pretty fine.

378
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: And Matt's an amazing driver and he drives ninety nine

379
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: point nine percent of the time. Although I will be

380
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: driving into the Gold Coast on the weekend to see

381
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: my friend Andrea, and you've got it permits and whatnot,

382
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: and yeah.

383
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 2: I gotta do that on my own, but I'm sure

384
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 2: I'll be fine.

385
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, So they're the questions for this week, So

Speaker 1: gonna share some of my favorite things about Siddos because

392
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 1: I imagine Melbourney.

00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: just do a fact because I used to live in Sydney.

397
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: Fun fact.

00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: Bridgeton episode and the media that picked it up.

406
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 2: I was so blown away by the support.

407
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: If you haven't listened to Monday's episode yet, is with

408
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: the intimacy coordinator from the amazing.

409
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 2: Netflix show Bridgeton.

410
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,479
Speaker 1: Bridgeton's known for its awesome sex scenes and I got

411
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: Lizzie Tlbert on the show, who is the intimacy coordinator.

412
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: She literally choreographs like each breath, each touch, just like

413
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: a fight would be coordinated on set.

414
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 2: So it was really cool to learn all about, yeah, the.

415
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: Secrets behind it and like fun little fact if you

416
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: haven't listened to it yet. The actress Phoebe who played Daphne,

417
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: the lead character in Bridgington, her first day on set

418
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 1: was a super steamy scene in a set in a

419
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: library and it's like full, full blown steamy. Her first

420
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: shot of the day, her first day on set was

421
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: literally that. And a cool thing was Lizzie talked about

422
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 1: she had six weeks to train with them, so that

423
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: we was so comfortable with the scenes because that had

424
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: so long to rehearse. And then she said, but it

425
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: felt like such a cheeky scene because they were actually

426
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: shooting in a London gentleman's club where up until nineteen

427
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: eighty one her women were even allowed in. So she

428
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: was like, felt so cheeky to be filming this kind

429
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: of like sexual awakening scene with a woman in a

430
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: place where women were banned.

431
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 2: So very cool.

432
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: I would love you to listen to it and let

433
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: me know what you think. Yeah, Lizzie is really really

434
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: cool and I'm still pinching myself that I even got

435
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: on the podcast because she's a very very cool human.
