<v Speaker 1>Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex

0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and Frooms catch up podcast.

0:00:08.320 --> 0:00:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Hey everybody, welcome back to the podcast.

0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Just a quick note from me.

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:16.440
<v Speaker 2>For me, I again have been the victim of subverbal

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:20.400
<v Speaker 2>attack hate crime into I was trying to say to

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:23.479
<v Speaker 2>Flex yesterday that she was wearing a tangerine number, a

0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 2>two piece made of cotton. I'm assuming perhaps a little

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 2>bit of sin satine moment that sat in the crinkles. Anyway,

0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 2>she's wearing a tangerine two piece.

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 3>She flexes like, I'm anticipating the roast because it's coming.

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.239
<v Speaker 2>So can we just get it straight you you guys, like,

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 2>what are you gonna say?

0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.040
<v Speaker 1>You what I said?

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 2>You?

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 1>Fuck you guys.

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 2>When we started the show nearly a year right now,

0:00:55.840 --> 0:01:04.080
<v Speaker 2>it was a year. Oh damn, time doesn't fly. You're okay, okay, everybody.

0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 2>It's actually so annoying when someone loses the pots. I'm

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:12.640
<v Speaker 2>just going to get it together commusic, Okay, freaky. One

0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 2>of the first things you said to us on the

0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 2>run sheet was that listeners like to hear what's happening

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 2>in the environment.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:23.720
<v Speaker 3>No through me every week, will never listen to Brookie.

0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 3>Brookie prints us amazing run sheet. She gives us directions

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.880
<v Speaker 3>for me thinks they're optional. But this one off hand

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 3>comment made three hundred and sixty five days ago, and

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:36.200
<v Speaker 3>you're like, well, I describe because Brookie said that.

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>People like to know visually what's going on.

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 3>And she's Nott throwing around gibes and attacks, and you're

0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.800
<v Speaker 3>masking it under you know your creative processes.

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Can I just just got really quickly.

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>You've described him before. No, I don't want to hear

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 1>you describe. My point is shoes against this. I don't.

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I'm not comfortable. I'm not comfortable with this

0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:04.440
<v Speaker 1>enough and now enough. Listen to the podcast Flex and

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>Rooms on cater.

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 3>Am I the asshole for not catering my best friend's wedding?

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 3>That is the question we're answering today on Flex and Frooms.

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:11.840
<v Speaker 3>Listen to this.

0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm a skilled cook.

0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 3>It's not my day to day job, but I do

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.800
<v Speaker 3>some catering on the SI for extra money sometimes. On

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.000
<v Speaker 3>My closest friends is getting married this summer and I'm

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.320
<v Speaker 3>super excited for her wedding. She told me recently that

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:24.720
<v Speaker 3>she wanted to use me for catering for the wedding.

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:26.920
<v Speaker 3>I told her I was honored that she thought I

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:29.040
<v Speaker 3>was good enough cook, but if I provide catering, I

0:02:29.080 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't be able to really enjoy the wedding as a guest,

0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.320
<v Speaker 3>and I hadn't really been planning on working all day

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 3>for my friend's wedding. She told me that providing the

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:38.079
<v Speaker 3>catering could be my wedding gift instead of an actual gift.

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 3>I explained that if I was catering the wedding.

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:42.959
<v Speaker 1>It's forty to fifty people.

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.519
<v Speaker 3>So it's small for a wedding, but still obviously a

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 3>lot of cooking and prep that I couldn't attend it

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 3>because I'd be making orders during the day and ceremony

0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 3>and dinner during the reception. So if I'm not attending

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 3>the wedding, I didn't owe her an expensive gift, so

0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:57.520
<v Speaker 3>she needs to pay me if she wanted me to

0:02:57.520 --> 0:02:59.919
<v Speaker 3>cater She's now mad at me because she was trying

0:02:59.919 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 3>to help boost my catering by giving me some exposure. Again,

0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 3>this is not my main source of income and not

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:07.639
<v Speaker 3>looking for new clients. I feel really bad that she's

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:08.959
<v Speaker 3>mad at me, but I just don't see why I

0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 3>should cater meals and appetisers for free for her because

0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm a good cook, It'd be extremely expensive and super

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:17.720
<v Speaker 3>time consuming for me. Am I the asshole for telling

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 3>her I'd rather attend the wedding, But if she prefer

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 3>I cater, she needs to pay. So what would you

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 3>do for me? You're a little bit of a cook.

0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:24.959
<v Speaker 3>I have friends that would get married.

0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 2>I double in the fine arts of cooking. Do not

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 2>do things for your friends when they involve drains and pipes.

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>And major milestones. This quid pro quo? What do you

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>call it? In the what the lawyers do?

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>Pro bono?

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Pro bono? Please pro bono? Bon broth.

0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 2>The contra babes look as someone who is identified as

0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>an influencer. At times over emails, I have been offered,

0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, a little gift card here or there to

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:56.080
<v Speaker 2>review a restaurant. I say, please, police, I don't need

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.040
<v Speaker 2>the exposure, and neither do you. I want to enjoy

0:03:58.120 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 2>my time if I'm going out to a restaurant, I

0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>don't want to pay. So this sort to say this

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 2>woman has totally fair. I think people who are not

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 2>in a certain industry don't realize the time and effort

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>that goes into certain things. I mean, cooking should be

0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 2>obvious because a lot of us have to do it.

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, the exposure angle, I'm sensing that this person

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 2>is angling for a freebie.

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:18.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, of course, but I don't understand why, especial if

0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.719
<v Speaker 3>you're good friends. It doesn't make any sense to me.

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 2>I guess they just don't realize how much it's gonna

0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:25.200
<v Speaker 2>put into it. When I was thirteen, I had my

0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:26.159
<v Speaker 2>cousin's first wedding.

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:28.839
<v Speaker 1>We had when you were thirteen.

0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.239
<v Speaker 2>No, but they had me in the f in kitchen,

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 2>de peeling, depooing prawns. M That was one of the

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:37.840
<v Speaker 2>worst experiences in my life.

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm so sorry about it.

0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.800
<v Speaker 2>So I would never get someone who is important to

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 2>the wedding.

0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 1>You don't get your friends to do the grunt work.

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.080
<v Speaker 3>I am one of those people where like, I like

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:47.880
<v Speaker 3>being generous, and I like acts of service, like when

0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.160
<v Speaker 3>people do things for me. But I will never, ever,

0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:53.039
<v Speaker 3>ever ask my friends to do grunt work moving house,

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 3>grunt work, cooking at my wedding, grunt work, organizing the

0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 3>music at the party, grunt work. I have some respect

0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.440
<v Speaker 3>for your people. It is such an esteemed position to

0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 3>have a friend who's getting married you know what I mean, Like, well,

0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 3>it's my friend, they're doing this amazing thing. Maybe that'll

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.000
<v Speaker 3>be present and celebrate with her, hanging all back on

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 3>this mask and be like, hey, why are you having

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:13.159
<v Speaker 3>your first kiss?

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I was in the kitchen.

0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.960
<v Speaker 3>It's ridiculous and it's odd, and it would advise you

0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:21.200
<v Speaker 3>to like really not reconsider the friendship. But like, if

0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.479
<v Speaker 3>you cannot reason with your friend in this instance, that

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 3>is so worrying to me, very spooky. That's good luck

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 3>with that. I wouldn't wish out on my worst enemy.

0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.599
<v Speaker 3>For the plot, maybe, but not on a day to day.

0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Keeter flex and Frooms flex and Frooms.

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 2>In a very exciting development. We are playing a game,

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>and this is the jobs you never knew celebs had, Flexi.

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to read out some celebrity jobs that they

0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.839
<v Speaker 2>had prior to becoming quote unquote successful. Talk to me,

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:47.600
<v Speaker 2>and I'm gonna need you to guess whether or not

0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 2>they are true. Starting off, Carti B did Cardi work

0:05:51.560 --> 0:05:54.160
<v Speaker 2>at a currency exchange at the mall and once serve

0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 2>P Diddy, but was too nervous to pitch her music

0:05:56.360 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 2>to him. Yes, that sounds believable, done, Brookie I like

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:04.800
<v Speaker 2>that whoopy Goldberg phone sex phone operator. She says when

0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:06.800
<v Speaker 2>she was younger, the money was great, but people who

0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:08.920
<v Speaker 2>see her now know that it would be her voice.

0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:14.719
<v Speaker 3>True gorgeous, whoopee, Come on girl bus Rihanna?

0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Is it Rihanna?

0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>She says, it's Rihanna, But too much time is past.

0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 2>She worked at a makeup store as a teen because

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.039
<v Speaker 2>her plan was to become a makeup artist before her

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 2>music career took off.

0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:28.839
<v Speaker 1>I believe that true. Whoa we whoa? Can we slow down?

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.159
<v Speaker 1>Lets see this? All sounds so believable to me.

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Brooks a genius. Hugh Jackman. He was a clown, earning

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 2>fifty dollars per show. He even remembered a girl saying

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.440
<v Speaker 2>that this clown is terrible. He doesn't know any tricks. True,

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:44.600
<v Speaker 2>pull one out for hum. I'm senting a pattern here.

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Mariah Carey she was a hat checker, but she got

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:49.960
<v Speaker 2>fired because of her attitude.

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>False, am I girl alone?

0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Megan Fox she was a banana mascot. She used to

0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.240
<v Speaker 2>stand outside this smoothie shop. She worked out dressed as

0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:03.479
<v Speaker 2>a banana. True, well done. Jack Harlowe worked at his

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.400
<v Speaker 2>dad's used car sales factory.

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 1>One of rooms and was fired for crushing an expensive car. True,

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 1>there's only one for me, not that character defamation.

0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 2>And finally, Sissa used to work inside a fancy club

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 2>bathroom and would hand you the paper towels and were

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 2>scouted one day when caught singing by a record producer.

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:28.680
<v Speaker 1>True, like, I don't feel that game fantasy.

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 3>You know, these are great experiences to have what they do,

0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:32.720
<v Speaker 3>just work in hospital.

0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, Hun, Well maybe that was a.

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Loss to me.

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 3>I think it's a win just for getting involved and

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.280
<v Speaker 3>give it a red hot going.

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 1>You're not big into games, are you?

0:07:42.880 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 3>I can be competitive, but if I know that like

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.440
<v Speaker 3>it's a game of skill not chance, then I'll play.

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:50.400
