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