Speaker 1: Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex
Speaker 1: and Frooms catch up podcast. Hey hey wa we were
Speaker 1: It's Flex and Frooms and before we start, I need
Speaker 1: to ask everyone a favor. We don't offen ask favors,
Speaker 1: but our producer, Mikayla God bless her, say hi, Mikayla, Hi.
Speaker 1: She has unfortunately asked me to ask you something. This
Speaker 1: is like when you're in the schoolyard and you ask
Speaker 1: your friend to ask your crush if they like you money.
Speaker 1: We really need you, guys to like and subscribe and
Speaker 1: rate the podcast five out of five.
Speaker 2: We've never asked this before, and I feel like not
Speaker 2: even once one year plus in. It feels like an
Speaker 2: appropriate time.
Speaker 1: We've given you a lot. Also, guys, I'm pretty sure
Speaker 1: it's sitting on like eight seven hundred or eight hundred
Speaker 1: of the moment. So after this podcast, I'm putting a
Speaker 1: little note in my calendar. If I don't see at
Speaker 1: least a hundred more by the end of the week,
Speaker 1: that's sort a threat. It felt like a threat, but
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be watching okay, and it lines our
Speaker 1: pockets both that's a bountiful vibes rather than its acknowledgment.
Speaker 1: Really is that too much accreditation? Anyway, guys, I'd really
Speaker 1: like if you could subscribe and just rate at number five.
Speaker 1: And yeah, let's get to the podcast Keeter flex and
Speaker 1: Flex and Firms Flexy. It's important that we discuss all
Speaker 1: things on this earth and on this country, Okay, and
Speaker 1: I have come up with a comprehensive map of what

Speaker 2: Can I interject please? This is a good time.
Speaker 1: Please.
Speaker 2: Similarly to how we discussed a couple of months ago,
Speaker 2: Fred Again's rise to fame out of nowhere. We went
Speaker 2: from not knowing who he was till every second person
Speaker 2: pretending to be a die hard fan.
Speaker 1: Got the Salomon's on.
Speaker 2: This feels like what's happening with F one? You all
Speaker 2: just suddenly love Daniel Ricardo and Lewis Hamilton.

Speaker 2: been itching for a little bit of a a fight,
Speaker 2: a makeup to break up situation. Wrap it up, king, Listen.
Speaker 1: All I want to say is Daniel Occardo is w A.
Speaker 2: We've got the list, you need to go through it. Look,
Speaker 2: I just want to talk about Daniel Ricardo. I'm a
Speaker 2: big fan of ky. He's all over my TikTok f YP.
Speaker 2: Do you follow him?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah yeah you follow Never watch Chef one. I
Speaker 1: just love his general aura and disposition.
Speaker 2: Are you shooting a shot?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm not.
Speaker 2: I'm really really You're not shooting a shot at Daniel Ricardo.
Speaker 1: I know my boundaries. Okay, I know my limits.
Speaker 2: WHOA, that was really good.
Speaker 1: Thanks.
Speaker 2: A couple of months ago, we posed a question would
Speaker 2: you rather be described as nice, kind, or good? When
Speaker 2: I say we was me? It was you it was
Speaker 2: it was me every now and then, like to operate
Speaker 2: as a team, as a unit, as a duo, as
Speaker 2: a couple. I'd like us to refer to each other
Speaker 2: as partners or couple.
Speaker 1: There's definitely chemistry. I continue to say.
Speaker 2: It's happening. I actually might shot every week of rooms.
Speaker 2: Every week. Actually, I asked you today, why haven't we
Speaker 2: gotten married? And like it didn't really.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that, but I didn't respond.
Speaker 2: I was deep in fault. You miss every shot you
Speaker 2: don't take. That's true, that's true. I appreciate it. We
Speaker 2: post the question. I posted the question would you rather
Speaker 2: be described as nice? Kind, or good? In my head,
Speaker 2: these are three comparable things or positive qualities. The majority
Speaker 2: of people walked like being described as nice was like
Speaker 2: the worst possible thing ever. Oh, it's so insincere, and
Speaker 2: I think it's the best.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: I want to be nice. It's not it's light, it's easy.
Speaker 2: And then I came across a TikTok that was talking
Speaker 2: about how you know, there's a lot of discourse on
Speaker 2: the internet about like what do we owe each other
Speaker 2: as a society, and this person said, at a bare minimum,
Speaker 2: we owe each other politeness and the Internet. Ate listen
Speaker 2: to this TikTok from Michelle Skadewski.
Speaker 3: I made a couple of videos the other week talking
Speaker 3: about how I think politeness is an important social contract
Speaker 3: that needs to be upheld because we all owe each
Speaker 3: other like basic decency and manners at face value, and like,
Speaker 3: for example, sometimes you should just do something because it's
Speaker 3: the nice thing to do. Like staying in a conversation
Speaker 3: that you think is a little bit boring doesn't necessarily
Speaker 3: preteen to you. You're in a group. Sometimes you should
Speaker 3: just stay and nod and smile because it's the nice
Speaker 3: thing to do.
Speaker 1: Enabler, No, don't be enabling no conversation.
Speaker 2: Think about how many, like let's say, in a work situation,
Speaker 2: how many polite nods we've done in our time just
Speaker 2: because of the thing you do. You know you need
Speaker 2: a big dog. You do a little giggle, giggle, cackle, cackle,
Speaker 2: it's fine, drop a night, it's funny. I think, at
Speaker 2: a bare minimum, it's not too much to be polite.
Speaker 2: I think people would be surprised how naturally it comes
Speaker 2: and how unconsciously. But you're doing it anyway. So even
Speaker 2: if you subconsciously think it's enabling. I feel as though
Speaker 2: I don't mind that. I don't want people to be
Speaker 2: genuine around me all the time.
Speaker 1: Do you know anyone who's like, markedly not polite in
Speaker 1: your life? No? Yeah, not, well I don't think so
Speaker 1: I do, but they're a bit older.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I something of prickly vibes. But I chalk that
Speaker 2: down to you. Maybe they just don't actually like me,
Speaker 2: and it's not a prickly vibe.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine anyone not liking you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an energetic thing though. Okay, I think it's
Speaker 2: my fault sometimes. Oh no, I think it's my fault.
Speaker 2: You know what it is the mistake I've made. Remember
Speaker 2: I said a couple episodes shows ago that I think
Speaker 2: one of my rules for life is not over enthusing
Speaker 2: how much you like a stranger to you know, make
Speaker 2: the situation feel warm. And the way that that's kind
Speaker 2: of bitten me in the bum is I think you
Speaker 2: can really tell when I like people, and if you're
Speaker 2: not getting that treatment, you're like, okay, wait, so I
Speaker 2: didn't eat, so she doesn't really like me that much.
Speaker 2: It's like, well, yeah, no, because I want people who
Speaker 2: I like to know I really like them.
Speaker 1: As I always say, it hurts different when it comes
Speaker 1: from you. Yeah, I am on the polite train and
Speaker 1: it has been such a pleasure talking with you. What
Speaker 1: a Woman's yet again producing Mikayla has dished me up.
Speaker 2: I stepped in where you couldn't step up to your plate.
Speaker 1: Listen as we talk about on the show. No, Mickayla,
Speaker 1: what a woman? She said to me, you need to
Speaker 1: bring us more breaks. I said, Look, I've got things
Speaker 1: on my plate. I've got to be at home cooking
Speaker 1: my recipe. Team needs. She said, I'm going to bring
Speaker 1: you a wiki how you need to teach the great
Speaker 1: people of Australia how to say hello in cool and
Speaker 1: creative ways. As you know, I'm a quirky coated woman.
Speaker 1: Here are some cool and crazy ways to say hello.
Speaker 1: If you're a school child in the back of your
Speaker 1: car right now, I'd say, do not do this advice
Speaker 1: lest you be mercilessly bullied. Number one yo yo yo,
Speaker 1: go on the.
Speaker 2: T I always give you the benefit of the doubt.
Speaker 2: And I have to stop. I have to stop. Please
Speaker 2: keep going.
Speaker 1: Go the ironically hip hop root to a player, it's.
Speaker 2: So Caucasionally he not on.
Speaker 1: But how did you get.
Speaker 2: Who let her in the door? Who's letting anyone in
Speaker 2: here these days? Don't give anyone shows Rick Rubin?
Speaker 1: Yeah, now who's the other one?
Speaker 2: He's white too, so I always thought he was Rick Ross.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: This works well if you're older than the person you're
Speaker 1: greeting and you want to embarrass them a bit, And
Speaker 1: if you're greeting someone a lot older and you want
Speaker 1: to throw them for a loop, it's a goofy sellang
Speaker 1: Field way to really bring the vib We're.
Speaker 2: Still on yo yo yo, yeah, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Are you ready? This one is something that Mikayla says
Speaker 1: to me before. How do lines greet other animals? Raw
Speaker 1: pleased to eat you? And seeing that Michaela's loving this,
Speaker 1: she Michayla obsessed with this break. Michayla, how are you
Speaker 1: feeling over there? Dog?
Speaker 2: I feel good?
Speaker 1: Of course.
Speaker 2: I would say it is a skill to greet people
Speaker 2: with just words and nobody language, Like if you just
Speaker 2: had to be like stiff body, just words, most things
Speaker 2: sound condescending or disruptive.
Speaker 1: True, that's why saying like greetings and emails is so difficult.
Speaker 1: The Hayes too, casual. Yeah, the high is insane.
Speaker 2: I do Ola, yeah, or hate team.
Speaker 1: I've only heard Ola when my iPhone restarts again to
Speaker 1: my will Ola bonjour. You're listening to Flex and Frooms
Speaker 1: on kit.
Speaker 2: You have ever wondered what our dynamic is. It's transitioned
Speaker 2: from potential couple to mummy daughter obviously Flex mummy matriarch
Speaker 2: through me big baby, but I think.
Speaker 1: For me big baby with patriarch rising.
Speaker 2: See you're the real mummy, but you're big baby coded.
Speaker 2: I'm the big baby mummy coded exactly.
Speaker 1: But we are guys. Just let me reiterate one more time.
Speaker 1: Flex and I are going to be having children at
Speaker 1: the same time. You're can be born a few months apart.
Speaker 1: She's having a blood Rex. Yeah, I'm having a girlhood Ellie.
Speaker 1: They're gonna hate each other in primary school. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: then eventually get together by.
Speaker 2: High school like best friends. They won't even know it.
Speaker 1: Though they're having a break. They're both on a euro Well,
Speaker 1: my chick's going America because she is going to be
Speaker 1: in after Rex is going to Europe to be a
Speaker 1: DJ in Berlin. Oh, you reckon, And then they're going
Speaker 1: to come together and bear us grandchildren.
Speaker 2: Can you, oh goodness, doing so badly? Just a couple
Speaker 2: two matriarchs money powerful. Yeah, we'll be paying for some
Speaker 2: private school.
Speaker 1: For many general I'm.
Speaker 2: Smoothing the moment. There's a little little thing in my womb.
Speaker 2: I'm going straight to every local private school on pitching.
Speaker 2: I don't know what's in here yet, it's gonna be good.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: To two types of people with flex and fruits.
Speaker 2: Play the tape DJ please.
Speaker 4: Warm weather people. According to some sociological references I will
Speaker 4: list here, are event based when it comes to time.
Speaker 4: Whether people are time based when it comes to time.
Speaker 4: This manifests in what you might hear as island time.
Speaker 4: This is very common in places like Hawaii, where they're
Speaker 4: just like, well, what time are you going to get here?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: Never, I feel like it. Meanwhile, in cold weather environments,
Speaker 4: you have to be on time. You have to be fast.
Speaker 4: You have to hurry up to the front of the
Speaker 4: line and say your order because there might be someone
Speaker 4: outside the deli who's freezing to death if they don't
Speaker 4: get inside quickly.
Speaker 1: That is genius flex.
Speaker 2: It's nice to know that, as individual as you feel,
Speaker 2: you are butt a statistic because this idea of warm
Speaker 2: weather time or like Ghana time or colored people time.
Speaker 2: Not everyone can say that don't get excited noted CBT,
Speaker 2: don't get excited, Okay, PC only. But it's so true
Speaker 2: because when I was younger, I used to get really
Speaker 2: upset when my mom would be quite like chill about timing.
Speaker 2: We would have church the same time every week, we
Speaker 2: were always late, or if she'd pick me up from
Speaker 2: school or somewhere and she'd be late, like oh, you know,
Speaker 2: like what's the big deal. But I'm that way as well.
Speaker 2: Feels as though, like I want to be somewhere when
Speaker 2: the environment dictates it's a good time to be there.
Speaker 2: So you might say the dinner party starts at six,
Speaker 2: but I feel like I don't want to trickle in
Speaker 2: when it's too early. I'm gonna go when it's pumping.
Speaker 2: I'll be there at eight. Well that doesn't make sense
Speaker 2: because it said six, But in my head, I'm like,
Speaker 2: why would I go when the party is not started?
Speaker 1: See where the opposite Because I'm a cold wither her girly.
Speaker 1: I grew up in Melbourne. I didn't realize that Melbourne
Speaker 1: was cold until I moved to Sydney and then realize,
Speaker 1: oh my god, every day's warm in Sydney. Like you
Speaker 1: would not understand.
Speaker 2: I think I might.
Speaker 1: Okay, you've been there for two Weekspokes, two friggin' weeks.
Speaker 1: Go all the way off. I will say, I'm very punctual,
Speaker 1: and I you are think of things in a time.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm so nostalgic, because I think of things
Speaker 1: in timelines. Anyway, very intelligent. This is legs and rooms.
Speaker 2: I'm Kater Flexi, Sydney born and bred in the Eastern Suburbs.
Speaker 2: Did you feel that for me? I'm not quite sure.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's because you, like I'm black.
Speaker 1: I thank you for I'm not letting me in criminal life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I took that for you. Anything else to do?
Speaker 1: Anyway, you are from the Eastern Suburbs, it's because you
Speaker 1: don't talk about the Eastern Suburbs that much.
Speaker 2: I don't, so you very mysterious. And my family are
Speaker 2: still there, so like I'm an og anyway, you've recently
Speaker 2: I've recently moved to Melbourne because as we know, I
Speaker 2: have a bit of an individuality complex and the older
Speaker 2: I get, it's kind of done me more harm than
Speaker 2: good in some instances, like it's been really good to
Speaker 2: cultivate a really specific identity in some ways. But also
Speaker 2: I've convinced myself that I'm not able to have generic
Speaker 2: life experiences because everybody does that. I want to do
Speaker 2: what everybody does so I can feel like I'm experiencing
Speaker 2: what everybody else experiences. So I moved to Melbourne. Being
Speaker 2: whim I was kind of oh for me was instrumental
Speaker 2: in this decision. I would never have considered Melbourne had
Speaker 2: I not have experienced through me being so obsessive out
Speaker 2: a place. I made the move on a whim. My
Speaker 2: lease is running out, six weeks to go. I said,
Speaker 2: let's just do it, let's crank it. So I moved
Speaker 2: and it has been the best I honestly, who would
Speaker 2: have thought, crazy?
Speaker 1: You.
Speaker 2: I was preparing myself for like same different smell, right,
Speaker 2: you know. But I was on my drive there, my
Speaker 2: nine hour drive, I was thinking, if you know, like,
Speaker 2: who pays this much money and spends this much time
Speaker 2: to uproot their life if not to try and be
Speaker 2: different or experience something different. And it's an energy I
Speaker 2: wouldn't allow myself to experience. In Sydney because something about it.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I'm from here, and like I
Speaker 2: know this and I've been here. I wouldn't allow myself
Speaker 2: to feel surprised or interested, or to even be pleasantly
Speaker 2: surprised by Sydney. So it's been fantastic. Each week, I'm
Speaker 2: going to give updates what I'm eating, what I'm experiencing,
Speaker 2: what I'm The first thing that I found to be
Speaker 2: really quite strange I went to a Bunnings in the
Speaker 2: in the North area, and I was very surprised to
Speaker 2: find out that the staff they were all alternative. Now
Speaker 2: when I think of Bunnings, I think of Tracy and Terry,
Speaker 2: Tracy and Terry trade's or people who have had thirty
Speaker 2: years experience on the tools.
Speaker 1: Great please to meet men.
Speaker 2: This one the inner North one. But anyway, I imagine this.
Speaker 2: I have been unpacking all day. I'm musty, like I'm
Speaker 2: just going to grab a little something from Bunnings and
Speaker 2: go back home. Why do I pop off? I'm seeing
Speaker 2: every second guy because I an AFL play a little shorts,
Speaker 2: great legs, six foot two. I'm like, what's going on?
Speaker 2: All the staff hot, all the Bunnings guests hot. It
Speaker 2: was very stressful, I said, we have arrived. We have arrived.
Speaker 2: Mummy's clocked on.
