Speaker 1: Laura, Come on Halla, Happy Monday around quick, doesn't it?
Speaker 2: Sure does? Welcome to the pickup for a new week,
Speaker 2: all thanks to chemists warehouse heading today, great savings every day. Sorry, Laura,
Speaker 2: are you being taken aback by the butterfly? On the
Speaker 2: other side of the.
Speaker 3: Room, Brittany has walked in to the studio looking like
Speaker 3: a peacock that's ready to mate. He's got all of
Speaker 3: her feathers, all of her feathers out, she's flaunting them.
Speaker 4: I'm a peacock. You go have a flower.
Speaker 3: Let's start at the toes. The nails have been done,
Speaker 3: you've got a fake tan on. The eyelashes are done,
Speaker 3: You've got your brows done, you had your extensions fixed.
Speaker 3: I have never seen you look more put together, and
Speaker 3: I have never felt more like I walked out of
Speaker 3: a trash can, Laura said to.
Speaker 1: Me a couple of days ago. No, sorry, this morning,
Speaker 1: Laura goes mate.
Speaker 3: Last week, you look like you're in a swamp, like
Speaker 3: she crawled out from under a bridge here, like I
Speaker 3: was a troll.
Speaker 4: She's like, this week you looking really good. Yes, guys,
Speaker 4: I've been peacocking.
Speaker 1: I've got all my stuff done because my boyfriend, Ben
Speaker 1: is on a plane as we speak.
Speaker 2: Ben's on his way. Ben's coming from Ireland.
Speaker 1: Ben is not Irish. Ben is from Scotland and he's Swiss.
Speaker 2: So I don't know what that music was, wrong music,
Speaker 2: because we all know how long since you've seen him,
Speaker 2: over two months, and then we know that this is
Speaker 2: what's your long distance boyfriend's coming to town and you
Speaker 2: are wax strapped and ready to party.
Speaker 3: Does he realize what he's being sold on though, because
Speaker 3: like this is holiday brite, this is not a maintainable
Speaker 3: version of yourself. He's only getting the best version for
Speaker 3: very short periods of time.
Speaker 4: Why do you think I only do long distance relationships.
Speaker 1: It's because I can just be at my A game
Speaker 1: for that really short period and then I can fake
Speaker 1: it the rest of the time.
Speaker 4: You've got filters, you got all this stuff.
Speaker 1: Anyway, He's on the plane tonight, so we all know what.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'm going to bring it back down to earth,
Speaker 2: brit and Laura, because there is a way to determine
Speaker 2: your red flags, and I found them. I know exactly
Speaker 2: what red flags you guys are living with every single day.
Speaker 2: That's on the way with the pickup for your Monday
Speaker 2: around Australia. It's Monday on the pickup with brit Laura
Speaker 2: and Mitch. Right now, get half priced off cosmetics across
Speaker 2: the maybe Leine Revlon Rimmel and Nude by Nature Rangers
Speaker 2: or at Chemist Warehouse.
Speaker 1: Guys, there's an airbnb listing that is going absolutely viral online. Now,
Speaker 1: when I say viral, not for good reasons. This isn't
Speaker 1: a beautiful, immaculate castle where everyone's racing to go and stay.
Speaker 1: This is a list of rules that a host in
Speaker 1: Australia has put on their stay, and they are absolutely wild.
Speaker 1: Some of these rules at this airbnb are pretty standard,
Speaker 1: like no smoking in the rooms. Yeah, obviously, you know,
Speaker 1: leave the place as you found it, so be clean.
Speaker 4: But then the owner has added rules. Only toilet paper will.
Speaker 1: Be supplied on the first day, which I'm assuming is
Speaker 1: one role. You cannot work from home. Don't if you
Speaker 1: are renting this airbnb, don't stay home and work. Don't
Speaker 1: use the internet too much. You can only use basic
Speaker 1: amounts of internet. Towels are only supplied on request.
Speaker 4: We're not even going.
Speaker 1: To give you a towel longest days every four days
Speaker 1: can wash.
Speaker 4: That's it. No washing under four days anyway, they may
Speaker 4: as wait.
Speaker 3: Wait, if you've stayed for less than four days, you
Speaker 3: can't wash your clothes, so you can't use the washing machine.
Speaker 4: Absolutely not.
Speaker 1: Wi Fi is only adequate for making video calls or
Speaker 1: light internet use.
Speaker 2: Quote.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean that's open to people's subjective views, isn't it.
Speaker 2: But where is this list? Is it on the front
Speaker 2: door when you enter, or on like the kitchen bench.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's on the front door. I think it's on
Speaker 4: the listing as well.
Speaker 1: I think it's like a double whammy set of rules,
Speaker 1: but it's so extreme that it actually goes against Airbnb's guidelines.
Speaker 3: I mean, to be fair, if they're going to have
Speaker 3: these rules, you need to have them somewhere front and center,
Speaker 3: because you don't want to get to day two and
Speaker 3: then realize you've got no toilet paper levels.
Speaker 1: You also can't look the rules up online on the
Speaker 1: listing because you can't use the Internet's got to be
Speaker 1: in the house anyway.
Speaker 2: How much per night? Bridge? You know how much this
Speaker 2: room is, because if it's expensive, then that's.
Speaker 1: Well, no, it's not expensive. It's fifty seven dollars room
Speaker 1: per night.
Speaker 3: That's so cheap.
Speaker 2: That is cheap.
Speaker 3: No, okay, fifty seven dollars per room per night. I'm
Speaker 3: not expecting to get a towel. I'm not expecting to
Speaker 3: get the toilet paper. I'm just expecting to have a
Speaker 3: bed that's got clean sheets on it.
Speaker 4: I would rather you charge me sixty dollars.
Speaker 1: A night and give me toilet paper. I don't want
Speaker 1: to have to go buy my toilet paper when I've
Speaker 1: gone to an air Charge me three dollars more, you
Speaker 1: know what, go sixty one dollars and let me use
Speaker 1: the internet, sixty two dollars let me wash my clothes.
Speaker 4: I will take it.
Speaker 1: But it started with this big conversation now about is
Speaker 1: Airbnb dead?
Speaker 4: Is it going down the gurgler?
Speaker 1: And are we all moving back to the old days
Speaker 1: of the hotel line?
Speaker 2: Now? I am one hundred percent team Hotel. I will
Speaker 2: pick a hotel over an airb all day, every day.
Speaker 4: Why is that the buffet?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, the buffet's and that's not even at
Speaker 2: the top of my list. The moment I check into
Speaker 2: a hotel and I tap that keey card on the door,
Speaker 2: I am living my life with reckless abandon I will
Speaker 2: flost my ass cheeks with a owl and then whipping
Speaker 2: around the room like I'm in dirty dancing.
Speaker 3: You do know that they have cleaners that have to
Speaker 3: deal with everything that you do in that room, and.
Speaker 2: They're getting paid body well to do it, because I'm
Speaker 2: paying through the room.
Speaker 1: No one's paid enough to get a towel that has
Speaker 1: flost your butt crack.
Speaker 2: Actually, no one people pay for that. You should see
Speaker 2: my gum tree account. There's a lot on there.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 2: But the thing is, they have those industrial washing machines.
Speaker 2: They dip those towels in bleach. Those towels, you rub
Speaker 2: them on your face, you get, you know, scratch marks,
Speaker 2: that's how dry they are because they've been bleached.
Speaker 3: No, I feel like the opposite. I feel like if
Speaker 3: you go to a hotel, the standard for which you
Speaker 3: get for what you pay. Like you said, there's a
Speaker 3: cleaner that comes every day. You might get turned down service,
Speaker 3: You're never going to run out of toilet paper. You
Speaker 3: even get your little little cosmetic pack you can take
Speaker 3: the home. I feel like you get so much more
Speaker 3: for staying in a hotel, whereas an airbnb, it's like
Speaker 3: if you don't clean up after yourself, if you don't
Speaker 3: put all the things in the dishwasher, you then get
Speaker 3: stung with a ridiculous cleaning fee. And I think maybe
Speaker 3: we all need to go back to being in hotels.
Speaker 1: I think there's pros and cons for both. I've recently
Speaker 1: heard a rumor of people do in hotel rooms. Do
Speaker 1: you know some people boil they're underpants in the kettle?
Speaker 2: No, they don't in a hotel.
Speaker 3: Okay, who's to say that they aren't boiling their underpants
Speaker 3: in the airbnb?
Speaker 4: Then brute they may be.
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying the rumors are about the hotel,
Speaker 1: and I don't personally need a turn down service.
Speaker 4: I can pull my own blanket down.
Speaker 1: But I appreciate you asking and interrupting my private time
Speaker 1: to ask me if.
Speaker 4: I want to pull my own blanket.
Speaker 2: Sorry, if you guys are lying as if you just
Speaker 2: haven't farted like a like a child in those hotel
Speaker 2: room beds.
Speaker 3: The only thing that I do think is a bonus
Speaker 3: of being in an airbnb over a hotel. If you're
Speaker 3: a family and you've got kids, the ease of being
Speaker 3: able to book something that has multiple rooms is great,
Speaker 3: because that's very hard to do at a hotel.
Speaker 2: Interconnection. We've all been in there.
Speaker 3: Usually we have to stick Lola in the bathroom mid
Speaker 3: of Portacon, the freezing child. Yeah, we just stick her
Speaker 3: in the bathroom, close the door, pretend like that's an
Speaker 3: extra room. It's great works to treat everyone.
Speaker 2: Got all right now, I think I've just admitted mine.
Speaker 2: But I found your red flags Britain, Laura.
Speaker 3: Yeah, your red flag is wiping your butt on.
Speaker 2: Tails blossing, I think, I said, And I know your
Speaker 2: red flags and I don't know if you're aware of
Speaker 2: them or reveal them to your next Here at the pickup,
Speaker 2: it is the pick up around the country for your
Speaker 2: Monday with Britt, Laura and Mitch head into chemist warehouse today.
Speaker 2: Great savings every day. Girls. You often say to me, Mitch,
Speaker 2: you are perfect always.
Speaker 4: That is what I walk in here. It's the first thing.
Speaker 2: I'm say, Mitch. There's nothing wrong with you at all?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, constantly. All we have is admiration for your
Speaker 3: beauty and kindness. Sorry, sorry I couldn't even get the.
Speaker 2: Listen. There's an ad that's going viral on TikTok and
Speaker 2: it identifies your red flags by scanning your face, your
Speaker 2: facial features, your energy, so TikTok says your energy through
Speaker 2: the listen. I did it, and it's pretty bang on.
Speaker 3: I mean you don't have any so it must have
Speaker 3: just glitched.
Speaker 2: That's why it means it's banged on, because it's actually
Speaker 2: found my flaws.
Speaker 4: What did it say?
Speaker 2: So I've got the fields up here, I'm and do
Speaker 2: it on myself one more time. I'm ready.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: It's got three red flags that come up. Minor sings
Speaker 2: off key.
Speaker 4: No, you're a great singer.
Speaker 1: You're rearly opera trained.
Speaker 4: Don't don't, don't make me Yes.
Speaker 2: That was on key h Red flag number two, high maintenance.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's getting closer, getting closer.
Speaker 2: To the course.
Speaker 4: You're one hundred percent high maintenance.
Speaker 2: Number three cancels on plants.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, michturis looking at me because he knows
Speaker 1: you are the biggest flaker I had.
Speaker 3: Be looking at you. Mitch has not turned up to
Speaker 3: a single dinner date, but we have organized.
Speaker 2: That is not true.
Speaker 1: Even get invited to your dinner dates.
Speaker 2: Mitch.
Speaker 1: If you were a chocolate, I'd be a crunchy, you'd
Speaker 1: be a flake.
Speaker 3: I'll be a picnic you would.
Speaker 2: We're not going to go through these red flags. We're
Speaker 2: going to admit them, and we're going to move on.
Speaker 2: We're going to work for.
Speaker 1: It.
Speaker 2: Really is you or quiet? I'm scanning you? Here we go.
Speaker 2: The red flags are appearing over Laura's head. Number one
Speaker 2: doesn't floss.
Speaker 3: I doos?
Speaker 2: Number two can't cook for ship, Oh my god, can't.
Speaker 2: Number three believes in ghosts, don't.
Speaker 3: That's for it?
Speaker 2: See well, two for two, two for two?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but look, can't cook for shit.
Speaker 3: Most people can cook kids food.
Speaker 2: You're terrible cook chicken nuggets. All right, hit me up,
Speaker 2: all right, I'm doing Britt ready. The filter is on
Speaker 2: for Britta. Red flags are appearing. Number one can't be alone.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean that I live my life alone.
Speaker 2: So number two no sense of direction. Number three hopelessly single.
Speaker 1: That is, actually they're all in two and three. A
Speaker 1: pretty accurate Number one is no.
Speaker 3: Number one is linked to number three.
Speaker 1: I'm always perpetually single, hopelessly single, so I'm always alone.
Speaker 3: I disagree, Britte. You think you can be alone, but
Speaker 3: then you brought a dog, so you never have to
Speaker 3: be alone. You literally are never alone.
Speaker 1: Believe it or not. She has not once spoken back
Speaker 1: to me when I speak to her.
Speaker 2: We've got doctor Nicki Goldstein relationship expert on the line
Speaker 2: because I want to work out who who has the
Speaker 2: worst red flag. So Laura's was can't cook.
Speaker 4: Britt was what was your perpetually alone?
Speaker 2: Perpetually alone single? And mine was can't make plans? Cancels
Speaker 2: on plans? Doctor Nikki, welcome to the pick up. Hello, Like,
Speaker 2: where do you land on this? These bad or these?
Speaker 2: Did you avoid them?
Speaker 5: But these are really hard ones. I'd say the cooking
Speaker 5: is fine, you can get takeaways, agree very much. But
Speaker 5: the loneliness one. Right, So this is really different as
Speaker 5: to whether you're alone because you're single, or one of
Speaker 5: those people that can't be on their own and always
Speaker 5: needs to be with someone else, as in, even when
Speaker 5: you're in a relationship, if you're not with that person
Speaker 5: all the time, you start to fret. So I think
Speaker 5: that's probably out of the red flags, the one that
Speaker 5: starts to become problematic in a relationship, especially if you're
Speaker 5: with someone who likes a bit of independence because they
Speaker 5: might have activities and friends and things that they want
Speaker 5: to do. And if you can't be on your own,
Speaker 5: guess who you're going to be calling them to say,
Speaker 5: what are you doing?
Speaker 2: What are you doing?
Speaker 5: I'm going to come over.
Speaker 1: I'm the inverse of that, though, I'm the one that
Speaker 1: frets when I spend too much time with people like
Speaker 1: I'm one the one that wants to be on my
Speaker 1: You're perfectly panatic for a relationship.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Look, I've got a lot of problems. We don't have
Speaker 1: enough time to dig deep into those.
Speaker 3: Well, I was gonna say, I'm not taking my relationship
Speaker 3: with advice or personal self help help advice from TikTok.
Speaker 3: That's what I learned from that. Thank you. Now, something
Speaker 3: happened to me over the weekend, which I want to
Speaker 3: tell you guys about. I think I might need to
Speaker 3: get myself a pair of glasses.
Speaker 4: Oh no, yea, we are hitting that.
Speaker 3: I'm getting old. I'm getting old. But you know it
Speaker 3: did affect my kids this time. And look, you didn't
Speaker 3: go down exactly as planned.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's next to the pickup. It is the pick
Speaker 2: up for your Monday Britt, Laura and Mitch around the
Speaker 2: country or thanks to Chemist's Warehouse right now, put in
Speaker 2: a little journal or your diary. Half price off cosmetics
Speaker 2: across the Maybe Lene Revlon and nude by Nature's ranges
Speaker 2: at Chemists ware House. Great deals.
Speaker 4: I don't think you need to put in your journal.
Speaker 4: Just go and go to Chemists Warehouse. Now I'll get
Speaker 4: the sale.
Speaker 2: Price probably better advice. Yeah, don'ty of us have a
Speaker 2: journey there?
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, guys, something happened to me on the weekend
Speaker 3: just passed. Now I think I need to go maybe
Speaker 3: to an outometrist to get myself some glasses. I think
Speaker 3: I'm getting old. Marley May, she's three and a half.
Speaker 3: She is obsessed, and I'm talking obsessed with like fire trucks,
Speaker 3: with policemen, with firemen, like loves a man in uniform.
Speaker 1: Sounds like Brittany, Yes.
Speaker 2: Loves an essential workout.
Speaker 3: No, but it's because they're like police officers and firemen
Speaker 3: are actually so nice to little kids because they get
Speaker 3: so excited, and you know, it's one of those things
Speaker 3: that they kind of aspired to. They learn about them
Speaker 3: in their books. So anytime Marley has seen a fire truck,
Speaker 3: even an ambulance, she gets so excited by the fact
Speaker 3: of seeing, maybe seeing or meeting a fireman. And every
Speaker 3: time we have in the past, the firemen have been
Speaker 3: so nice. Sometimes they've let her into the truck, like
Speaker 3: she's had these really beautiful experiences and she loves it.
Speaker 3: It's like Disneyland for her. So we were walking through
Speaker 3: the city and I spotted a fire truck at at
Speaker 3: the end of the street. It was kind of about
Speaker 3: three blocks away, and I was like, Marley, look, there's
Speaker 3: a fire truck. And she was so excited. She started
Speaker 3: running down the street and I'm chasing after it with
Speaker 3: the pram and there's Matt. Anyway, we get closer and
Speaker 3: there's like four firemen on the side of the road
Speaker 3: and they were obviously like in between, maybe having lunch
Speaker 3: or something. And then there was one fireman and I
Speaker 3: could see him in the front seat and I was like,
Speaker 3: what is he doing? Anyway, he had his shirt off.
Speaker 3: He's getting changed in the midst of putting a different
Speaker 3: shirt on. So anyway, Marley, she gets there first and
Speaker 3: she's chatting to the fireman and I'm like running up behind. Anyway,
Speaker 3: I gat to catch up and I'm like, oh, sorry, Like,
Speaker 3: my daughter's really excited. She really loves firemen, and they're
Speaker 3: being so nice. They're chatting, but they're kind of looking
Speaker 3: between themselves and having a bit of a giggle, and
Speaker 3: I was like, what's going on here? Felt like the
Speaker 3: one that was left out.
Speaker 2: Of a joke.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Marley was in on the joke,
Speaker 1: she's three, but yeah, you're the only one left out
Speaker 1: of the joke.
Speaker 3: Well, then Matt arrives and Matt was like, Laura, what
Speaker 3: are you doing? And he's confused, and then I'm confused.
Speaker 3: And then I saw the fireman, the one that was
Speaker 3: in the front of the truck that wasn't wearing a shirt.
Speaker 3: He comes out from behind the truck carrying a woman.
Speaker 3: It was a truck of strippers.
Speaker 2: It was a fall.
Speaker 3: They were half naked. Nothing about it even looked like
Speaker 3: it was a fake fire truck. There was a group
Speaker 3: of women on the back, and that this man with
Speaker 3: no shirt and was carrying a woman. I then had
Speaker 3: to come up with this elaborate story for Mali, telling
Speaker 3: her her that this man had saved her. The building
Speaker 3: was on.
Speaker 2: And they're kissing because her lips are hot and he's putting.
Speaker 1: The fire out in it because she was getting in
Speaker 1: the shed off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it flows all burnt off.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there is a reason.
Speaker 4: And that blow up doll, Well, we don't know about.
Speaker 3: There was a poll on.
Speaker 2: The back of the truck.
Speaker 3: It took me until I was standing below it, and
Speaker 3: still she was there, like making small talk with these strippers,
Speaker 3: and I was like, Ah, there's a lot more to
Speaker 3: this story that I'm going to have to explain. So
Speaker 3: the moral of the story is strippers are nice too, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Moral story, Strippers great with children. Okay, let's go, let's
Speaker 2: get out of here. Laurie getting your eyes chick, please
Speaker 2: please do well? What are your up nekes to drive
