Speaker 1: Laura and come on pick up Thursday, High Ladies, Happy Thursday.
Speaker 2: I like that as that was playing, You're like, Surf's up, dude.
Speaker 2: It does sound a little bit like does it? Yeah,
Speaker 2: like we're out in a good old ninety surfing music, like.
Speaker 3: A bit about Hawaii summer time.
Speaker 4: Maybe a little bit.
Speaker 5: Maybe none of us can serve, none of us are.
Speaker 2: But Britt actually was like a professional body boarder.
Speaker 3: I was Australian champion. Don't come at me like I'm
Speaker 3: making it up.
Speaker 4: You know, if I said I needed to get an
Speaker 4: MRID today, Brick could have gone. I could have done it.
Speaker 4: I've got one.
Speaker 2: I do have anical radiation degree. I do that, shure.
Speaker 2: It's annoying being working alongside someone who's so successful because
Speaker 2: it just really highlights the things you can't do.
Speaker 5: Totally, Britt, I've got a hole in the back of
Speaker 5: my tooth. Can you to whip it up with a feeling?
Speaker 3: I didn't do a quick dental dig.
Speaker 5: Thursday.
Speaker 4: Thanks for being here on the pickup at a very
Speaker 4: big one.
Speaker 5: I was at a wedding over the weekend and I'm
Speaker 5: actually offended by my seating placement.
Speaker 6: Seated, I don't know somebody that goes to more weddings
Speaker 6: than you do, Midge Cherry every week, unless you're using
Speaker 6: it as a lie to get out of hanging out
Speaker 6: with us every week.
Speaker 3: You're like, I can't got a wedding.
Speaker 4: Well, there won't be anymore because I have really been offended.
Speaker 2: Sat next to the toilet.
Speaker 4: That's always about worse than the toilet.
Speaker 2: That's right, Well, do you know what is worse than
Speaker 2: a toilet? Vaping? I got a few feels after going
Speaker 2: to your party last weekend and every single person was
Speaker 2: on the vapes.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I just can't believe how ridiculously addictive it is. And
Speaker 2: we have a doctor Zach joining us on the show
Speaker 2: today to give us the ins and outs what's happening
Speaker 2: with this whole vaping business?
Speaker 4: All right, kids, listen up.
Speaker 5: That's next the pickup around Australia your Thursday. It's the
Speaker 5: pick Up Thursday afternoon, Britt, Laura and Mitch around Australia
Speaker 5: thanks to Chemist's Warehouse get ahead of the spread this
Speaker 5: flu season with annual flu vaccinations available at chemist Warehouse
Speaker 5: only nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 2: Now last weekend, Mitch Jerry, we went to your party,
Speaker 2: but you know what one thing that a lot of
Speaker 2: people at that party were doing vaping?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, my family love the vapes, Yes they do.
Speaker 6: Everyone loves the vape these days, I do not on record,
Speaker 6: yes everyone.
Speaker 2: I think increasingly we're seeing more and more that the
Speaker 2: people are taking up the addiction of vaping. And I
Speaker 2: guess it started as like a substitute for smoking, So
Speaker 2: we're seeing less smoking more vaping. We've got doctor Zach
Speaker 2: Turner on the phone because I just wonder how addictive
Speaker 2: is this and how much of a problem we're going
Speaker 2: to face with this whole vaping business.
Speaker 4: Doctor Zach. Welcome to the pickup.
Speaker 7: Thank you so much, and I hope I become just
Speaker 7: as addictive. Gosh, that would be all of you are.
Speaker 2: You can come back anytime, doctor Zach.
Speaker 6: How bad are e cigarettes and vapes? Because at the
Speaker 6: moment people make them look.
Speaker 7: Cool totally, and I guess this is one of the
Speaker 7: biggest things about them. They are not so they are
Speaker 7: not healthy. There is nothing healthy about these. The only
Speaker 7: thing you could possibly take away from this is that
Speaker 7: it's the kind of like the difference between sitting in
Speaker 7: a room full of like old truck exhaust. If you
Speaker 7: think about this like cigarettes, or you're sitting in a
Speaker 7: car with new petrol. It's not diesel, it's possibly a
Speaker 7: little bit cleaner, you're still sitting in a whole lot
Speaker 7: of bad toxins that are not good for you.
Speaker 2: What are some of the side effects then, I mean,
Speaker 2: obviously we know the side effects from smoking. They've been
Speaker 2: well researched. It's been around for a long time. But
Speaker 2: in terms of vaping, because it's relatively new, do we
Speaker 2: know what the side effects are for people who've ACKed?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 7: And that's well some of them, yes, so I guess.
Speaker 7: I mean part of this is my background before medicine.
Speaker 7: I was a biochemist, so I can put different medications
Speaker 7: together and would make different compounds, and I can also
Speaker 7: chuck it into a lab and have a look at
Speaker 7: what's in different liquids. And I've done this for some
Speaker 7: of the vapes. And the crazy thing about it is
Speaker 7: not only a lot of the vapes not even labeled
Speaker 7: probably that even say that they have nicotine in that,
Speaker 7: but it's quite obvious that they do, but the amount
Speaker 7: of unknown chemicals that come up in a thing called
Speaker 7: a mass spectrometus. You basically take a bit of the fluid,
Speaker 7: chuck it through a light that shines through it, and
Speaker 7: it kind of tells you what's going on. Well, lots
Speaker 7: of the stuff we don't even know, two hundred and
Speaker 7: forty different ingredients we do know of which a lot
Speaker 7: of them are harmful to you.
Speaker 5: But how do we stop young kids taking them? Because
Speaker 5: kids as young as thirteen and fourteen are aping these things.
Speaker 7: Well, this is the crazy thing. So I want to
Speaker 7: go further than that and say this is not just poisonous,
Speaker 7: this is an addictive poison because some of the things
Speaker 7: in there are toxic, are poisonous, but worse than this,
Speaker 7: we're then combining it with something that we know is
Speaker 7: extremely addictive. So the problem with nicotine is that if
Speaker 7: you think about caffeine, if you have a cup of coffee,
Speaker 7: about ten minutes after the coffee kind of kicks a
Speaker 7: new and you might wake up a little bit, and
Speaker 7: then it lasts for about I don't know, thirty minutes
Speaker 7: to an hour or sometimes a little bit longer. What
Speaker 7: you're doing with nicotine is it doesn't take ten minutes
Speaker 7: to kick you. It gives you that whole satisfaction, that
Speaker 7: reward pathway after like five seconds, ten.
Speaker 3: Seconds because you're too quick, you feel too good too quickly.
Speaker 7: And then the other part is is it's socially acceptable.
Speaker 7: It's not socially acceptable to have one hundred coffees in
Speaker 7: the day because you'd be racing to the basket. Figure
Speaker 7: about nicotine and especially about vapes, is that it's totally
Speaker 7: fine to then have another breath thirty seconds after and
Speaker 7: have another hit, because the problem with the substances is
Speaker 7: your body doesn't actually know the difference between say, milk
Speaker 7: and mes for example. Your receptors aren't pre programmed to
Speaker 7: know the difference between different things that bind to them.
Speaker 7: The problem with nicotine is that it binds to a
Speaker 7: receptor makes it feel really good, and then just as
Speaker 7: quickly makes it feel like it's lost something.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: So it's like heartbreak heartbreak exactly.
Speaker 7: Whereas caffeine, Yeah, you can get a bit of energy,
Speaker 7: you might go for a jog. It lasts you for
Speaker 7: an hour and then yeah, maybe you do feel a
Speaker 7: little bit of a afternoon lunchtime, but it's definitely not heartbreaking,
Speaker 7: you know.
Speaker 2: The other The other thing as well, I think makes
Speaker 2: it like more socially acceptable is because cigarettes, no one
Speaker 2: wants to be around someone who smokes a cigarette because
Speaker 2: they stink and these smell quite nice. It's quite nice
Speaker 2: to be around someone who's smoking a very vapepo pu. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like it's not a fair way to be around.
Speaker 2: And I think that that's also what has made it
Speaker 2: more socially acceptable in so many places.
Speaker 4: Totally, Thanks doctor Zach, Thanks thanks so much.
Speaker 5: All right, stand by, there is a new way to
Speaker 5: discover whether or not you are the favorite child. And
Speaker 5: all of us are siblings. We've got we've got other siblings.
Speaker 5: We've got We're not of each other. We're absolutely not
Speaker 5: related to eat, We're not connected, but we have other siblings.
Speaker 5: And I think there's one person in this room that
Speaker 5: is most definitely the favorite child.
Speaker 4: Sit on that. We'll discuss it next at the.
Speaker 5: Pickup Thursday are vo on kiss it's the pick up Britt,
Speaker 5: Laura and mitchead into chemist Warehouse today.
Speaker 4: Great savings every day.
Speaker 3: Do you guys, reckon you the favorite child?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: Oh, as in my parents' favorite child.
Speaker 6: Well, look, the reason I'm asking is I want to
Speaker 6: fall I reckon. I'm up there tired. But there's this
Speaker 6: new TikTok trend going around called the password child trend
Speaker 6: Are you the favorite child? The reason you know you're
Speaker 6: the favorite child is if your name is the name
Speaker 6: of your parents' passwords, so you know your parents like, well,
Speaker 6: I feel like our parents all used one password for everything,
Speaker 6: Like if you've got hack, you're doomed because your password
Speaker 6: is for your banking, it's for all your emails, is
Speaker 6: for everything. So this trend on TikTok, they've discovered that
Speaker 6: if your name is your parents password, that you are
Speaker 6: the favorite child in that family.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I already know that it's my brother
Speaker 2: because my mum just paid for all my brother's uniface
Speaker 2: and didn't do.
Speaker 3: But maybe she's maybe she's better off financially now.
Speaker 2: True, and he's also a lot younger, but I think
Speaker 2: he's the favorite, or my sister, but it's definitely not
Speaker 2: me middle child cemented right there.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm the face. I'm the middle child also, and
Speaker 5: I think I'm my mum favorite, but not my dad's.
Speaker 5: I think it's different per parent, And I know.
Speaker 2: The parents out there like to say that they don't
Speaker 2: have a favorite, but everyone does. It's the child that
Speaker 2: creates the least amount of problems for you.
Speaker 3: You have a favorite for sure. Right now, I feel
Speaker 3: like it's Lola Lola.
Speaker 4: I don't have to know more about Lola, doesn't she
Speaker 4: Lola and a melon head. Look at Lola at Marley
Speaker 4: fell over, It's like, Wow, there's a real bias. You're
Speaker 4: always laughing at Marley, Like, Marley, can you get out
Speaker 4: of the.
Speaker 3: Way of Lola's head.
Speaker 1: It's not true.
Speaker 2: I don't have a favorite, but I do think that
Speaker 2: as a parent, you tend to favorite the child that's
Speaker 2: just the easiest in that moment, the one that's causing
Speaker 2: you the most problems. And look, you know, for me
Speaker 2: and for my mum, I think I caused her the
Speaker 2: most problems throughout Kimba.
Speaker 5: We met Kimball, you know, Kimbo. We met her at
Speaker 5: the wedding of you were dance and hard. Let's just
Speaker 5: call her and ask she does.
Speaker 3: Froth you like she was frothing you at the wedding.
Speaker 2: A wedding speech, I mean had to it was my wedding.
Speaker 3: Shen't no one has to do anything.
Speaker 2: Imagine she caught up at wedding and just sit to speech.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: The first thing she said in my speech was she'd
Speaker 2: like to acknowledge that my.
Speaker 4: Brother was there and he was gay. Didn't she say
Speaker 4: he was gay?
Speaker 1: He was?
Speaker 3: She did? He is gay?
Speaker 2: He's married.
Speaker 4: No, the other one.
Speaker 2: I only have one.
Speaker 4: Oh, I was at the wrong wedding. Let's call kim Kimbo.
Speaker 4: Let's dial. I've got a number, my poor mom. Hello, Hi,
Speaker 4: mom My, Kimbo.
Speaker 3: You're on, You're on the radio. We just should tell
Speaker 3: you that before you're saying, am I.
Speaker 2: We have a very important question for you. Who is
Speaker 2: your favorite child out of the three of us.
Speaker 7: I don't have a favorite equally long, I.
Speaker 3: Don't believe that.
Speaker 4: That's bullshit. Yeah, you've got one.
Speaker 2: Do you think it would be Alish Alicia, my older sister,
Speaker 2: she was so well behaved growing up, she was so academic.
Speaker 2: Or do you think it is my younger brother Matt
Speaker 2: or me? Maybe I do get a look in.
Speaker 7: No, you're all the same special What are.
Speaker 6: Your I mean we're asking for a reason. Do you
Speaker 6: have like do use one of the kids's passwords? Is
Speaker 6: your passwords for like emails? Ah? Yeah, I do?
Speaker 2: Okay, you use one of our names only for most
Speaker 2: of your passwords?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 5: Laura?
Speaker 1: You were right?
Speaker 2: I'm going to put money on this.
Speaker 4: It is my brother.
Speaker 2: Why is he the favorite?
Speaker 5: Wait?
Speaker 2: Does that make him the fame? Why did you choose
Speaker 2: his name as the password name?
Speaker 7: I think because when the internet started.
Speaker 6: Oh okay, well, thank you for acknowledging that, kid, But
Speaker 6: you also need to go and change all your passwords now.
Speaker 2: Don't be hacked.
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 4: Next to the pickup.
Speaker 5: I was at a wedding over the weekend, and you
Speaker 5: know how seating plans at weddings can be highly political.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you want to be at like the good table,
Speaker 6: the main table, closest to the bridal table.
Speaker 2: Whoever's the most important usually sit the closest to the bride.
Speaker 3: And it's like on the plane. You don't want to
Speaker 3: be sat next to the toilet.
Speaker 5: Totally. The person that took precident. Actually, the people that
Speaker 5: took precident over me at this wedding have left me
Speaker 5: very offended. I think it'll shock you. Who it is?
Speaker 5: The dog? No, no, no, I wouldn't be at working
Speaker 5: with the dog. That's exit the pickup. It's the pick
Speaker 5: up with Britt, Laura and Mitch Rock. Call we all here,
Speaker 5: check here president, Hello, Mitch, I'm here, Hey all, Thanks
Speaker 5: to Chemists ware House. Laura's hands up get ahead of
Speaker 5: the spread this flu season with annual flu vaccinations available
Speaker 5: at Chemists ware House only nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 4: Now I know I'm in my wedding era or my
Speaker 4: friends are getting married here?
Speaker 3: Really are?
Speaker 2: They're really every weekend. I mean I'm not jealous, but
Speaker 2: like every weekend you go to a wedding.
Speaker 5: Well, it's my mid mid to late twenties, so that's
Speaker 5: when all friends start to get married, you know, and
Speaker 5: where I'm.
Speaker 4: From, they get married, their babies and get a house.
Speaker 3: It's very the vibe you're in the Yeah, you are
Speaker 3: in the wedding area.
Speaker 5: Yes, so my friends are getting married and these are
Speaker 5: very very close family friends to me, so not really
Speaker 5: in the friend circle every weekend. But we go back
Speaker 5: a long way, so I wasn't expecting to be sat
Speaker 5: next to the bride and groom at the at the table.
Speaker 5: You know how the table seatings at weddings are very political. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: I had a great seat at your wedding, Laura, with Maddie.
Speaker 7: That was.
Speaker 4: I was very impressed with my seat.
Speaker 2: Then, because seating also is a hierarchy, right, It's like
Speaker 2: if you're seated close to the bride and groom, then
Speaker 2: you're obviously very important to them, and the further out
Speaker 2: you are, the less important you are.
Speaker 4: Exactly, you were.
Speaker 1: Literally next to me and Laura's wedding. Thanks for remembering
Speaker 1: I was closer, actually, thanks lost. I get to this
Speaker 1: wedding with my boyfriend Hayden and my family there. It's
Speaker 1: a family friend's wedding, so my mum and dad are
Speaker 1: up really close to the bride and groom. I go,
Speaker 1: that's okay, Hayden and I get the first table.
Speaker 4: We go, our names aren't on here. We got to
Speaker 4: the second table. Names aren't on here all the way
Speaker 4: to the sixth.
Speaker 5: Table, and our names are on the sixth table, right
Speaker 5: down the southern end, at the furthest point from the
Speaker 5: bride and groom, and I go, I get checks out,
Speaker 5: that's okay.
Speaker 2: The table was in the toilet. It was good for
Speaker 2: a very quick exit.
Speaker 5: Exactly, and it was right next to the toilet, so
Speaker 5: which is a bit unfortunate, but I sort of caught that.
Speaker 4: I was all right.
Speaker 5: I sit down at our seat, and I noticed there
Speaker 5: are four seats on the left of us free, so
Speaker 5: I move up.
Speaker 4: Clear people aren't here.
Speaker 5: So we sit in these seats and we sit there
Speaker 5: and the MC comes up to us and he goes, sorry, guys,
Speaker 5: do you mind moving out of these seats.
Speaker 4: They're not your seats. You've got your own seats. And
Speaker 4: I go, oh, oh, there must be arriving late country wedding.
Speaker 2: And these four seats are closer to the bride and
Speaker 2: groom and just better seats, better seats, closer to the
Speaker 2: further away from the toilet.
Speaker 5: Yes, exactly, So we move back to our two last
Speaker 5: seats at the end of the table. The wedding starts.
Speaker 5: I go, god, these people are running really late. You know,
Speaker 5: they're not going to make the wedding. You know, they've
Speaker 5: already missed the intro and the first dance. And we're
Speaker 5: sitting there and the dad gets up to make his.
Speaker 4: Father of the Bride speech. In the middle of the speech,
Speaker 4: he starts to walk towards us, and I go, oh,
Speaker 4: my god, what what's going on here? Why's he coming
Speaker 4: over to me? Like maybe he knows I'm a radio
Speaker 4: anounce and wants me to speak. You know, I'm getting ready.
Speaker 4: MC on the on the fly.
Speaker 5: He comes up to us and he stops he stares
Speaker 5: at these empty seats and he starts to cry, and
Speaker 5: I think, oh my god, what has happened. Oh no,
Speaker 5: he says, there are so many of you here in
Speaker 5: this room that we love with all our hearts, but
Speaker 5: there are some here that couldn't make it to this
Speaker 5: room today.
Speaker 4: That's why we have.
Speaker 5: Left four empty seats to represent non Nah, Poppa, Nanu
Speaker 5: and Papu who couldn't make it.
Speaker 4: So you're telling me you got shafted for dead people.
Speaker 2: Just brought them at the end of the table, So you.
Speaker 3: Are less important than people that are no longer here.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I fully appreciate It's a beautiful gesture. I
Speaker 5: think it is lovely and I'm not making that was beautiful.
Speaker 5: And I teared up because I was at the very hands,
Speaker 5: but I was gutted for a moment. And Hayden and
Speaker 5: I are playing foot seas under the table, going.
Speaker 4: Have we really been shafted for people?
Speaker 5: That?
Speaker 2: It's funny with these long tables. So there was a
Speaker 2: break in the middle and you were just like next
Speaker 2: to the empty seat. Yes, like you've been sectioned away.
Speaker 2: And so did they also get like.
Speaker 3: Did the deceased to get food?
Speaker 2: Did you get to take their meals.
Speaker 4: That's what I was so mad about.
Speaker 5: They got bread, which is why I thought they were coming,
Speaker 5: and I didn't even touch it, and God for me.
Speaker 5: Do you know, as soon as it was announced that
Speaker 5: they were no longer arriving at the wedding, I ate their.
Speaker 4: Bread and I enjoyed. Nothing wrong, nothing wrong with that
Speaker 4: at all.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 3: Of course it hurt me, I understand that lovely gesture,
Speaker 3: but I understand.
Speaker 5: All right, let's go on that note. I will and
Speaker 5: what are up next? To drive your home and we
Speaker 5: will see you tomorrow for Friday, guys,
