Speaker 1: Monday afternoon. It is the Pickup with Britt, Laura and
Speaker 1: Mitch rushing to Chemists Warehouse Now to get a half
Speaker 1: price off the Nature's Own Vitamin range. It excludes both sizes. Okay,
Speaker 1: Chemist Warehouse, great savings every day. You know, I'm obsessed
Speaker 1: with the Netflix show The Ultimatum.
Speaker 2: It's all you've been talking about, but it's this. You're
Speaker 2: you're obsessed with the Queen one, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Ultimatum Queen Love. It's for gay couples, and
Speaker 1: it's like perfect and I'm just in it. I'm freshly
Speaker 1: out of a five year monogamous relationship, so this is like,
Speaker 1: it's perfect for me because what it is is they
Speaker 1: get a queer couple and one of them is like
Speaker 1: biting itching to get married and the other is kind
Speaker 1: of not really sold on the fact, dragging their feet
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, a little bit like that. And
Speaker 1: the premise of the show is just that it's an ultimatum.
Speaker 1: It's they spend a couple of weeks together on this
Speaker 1: reality show and either at the end of it they
Speaker 1: decide to get married or they decide to break up.
Speaker 3: I think if you have to give your romantic partner
Speaker 3: an ultimatum about marriage. It's probably not the best decision, and.
Speaker 1: On a reality show, and that's a very difference situation.
Speaker 2: But the craziest thing about this reality show is they
Speaker 2: don't just go away for eight weeks and like work
Speaker 2: on themselves in therapy. They go onto this show and
Speaker 2: swap couples. They go and date someone else.
Speaker 1: The perfect way to figure out if you want to
Speaker 1: marry it. No, it's kind of I kind of back
Speaker 1: it because it's a nice way of going if you're
Speaker 1: the one that really wants to get married, it's a
Speaker 1: nice way of going, let me just see if there's
Speaker 1: anyone else out there. And it's also good for the
Speaker 1: other partner to get some perspective to go. Actually, what
Speaker 1: I've got is amazing. I'm not going to drag my
Speaker 1: feet anymore. I get the mentality.
Speaker 2: They have a trial marriage with a new partner.
Speaker 3: It's why wait, so, how do they have to just
Speaker 3: live with the other partner do like they share a
Speaker 3: bed with them.
Speaker 1: Mobs, it's their big brother house. It's like maps but
Speaker 1: gay on steroids with their.
Speaker 3: Other partner partners and they're all together living in the
Speaker 3: one house, or they go to different houses.
Speaker 1: So they enter a trial a trial marriage with a
Speaker 1: new partner from one of the other pairings. So the
Speaker 1: possibilities really are endless. You can jump and change move around.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 3: I love that they won't even marry their own partners,
Speaker 3: but they'll have a trial marriage with someone they don't know.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day of the day,
Speaker 1: you have to choose either break up or marry your partner.
Speaker 1: They're the only options.
Speaker 2: Have you ever had an ultimatum in your relationship, Mitch
Speaker 2: Things and you're so obsessed with the show?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah. So I gave my partner an
Speaker 1: ultimatum to get his driver's license because I'm the only
Speaker 1: one who can drive, and we're twenty seven and I
Speaker 1: was over driving absolutely everywhere, and I said, you've got
Speaker 1: to get your ls so you can be a man.
Speaker 1: And the ultimatum work and he went and got his ol.
Speaker 3: There is nothing sexier than having your adult male partner
Speaker 3: get their l Oh yeah, in the bedroom, take them
Speaker 3: for a.
Speaker 1: Driving in the bedroom. I'm like, you'd be good, or
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sign your log books.
Speaker 2: What was the ultimatum that you'd break up if you
Speaker 2: didn't get his license?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was over it. It was fine.
Speaker 2: So it wasn't just that you have to get the bus.
Speaker 1: It was pretty extreme.
Speaker 2: It's not like the ultimatum is you don't get your license,
Speaker 2: you get in the bus.
Speaker 1: It's I'm out at all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because Mitch had the absolute dick from having a
Speaker 3: boyfriend who didn't have his license at the rivaled age
Speaker 3: of twenty seven.
Speaker 1: That thing gets me going more than slapping on a
Speaker 1: magnetic l plate to a holden Marina.
Speaker 2: At least the magnetic now, not the paper once to
Speaker 2: go on to the plate, you know.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I feel like ultimatums are bad. I
Speaker 3: say this, and then I realized we just call them
Speaker 3: a bribery in our house, Like we use ultimatums for
Speaker 3: pretty much everything. It's like stop kicking your sister. There's
Speaker 3: an ultimatum, if you don't eat your peas. There's an
Speaker 3: ultimatum if you won't get in the shower. There's an
Speaker 3: ultimatumas just for Matt. Yeah, and then sometimes I do
Speaker 3: it for my children as well. But no, I pretty
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that every single parent out there uses
Speaker 3: ultimatums or bribery as a way to get them to
Speaker 3: do what you need them to do.
Speaker 1: Has anyone given you Brittin, Have you been given one
Speaker 1: or Laura in a relationship?
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I mean, like there was the whole,
Speaker 2: like if you're going to marry the other person, I
Speaker 2: probably won't be here anymore. When my Psycho X was
Speaker 2: married two people at the one time.
Speaker 1: But besides that, it's probably what I mean.
Speaker 3: I I did give on to my ex. I said,
Speaker 3: if you don't stop cheating on me, I'm gonna leave you,
Speaker 3: and then I left him and now I'm married to
Speaker 3: someone else.
Speaker 1: So it turned out. Did you get given an ultimatum?
Speaker 1: Or what was yours? We love to know best ultimatum
Speaker 1: or best story will give five hundred bucks at chemist
Speaker 1: ware House. How about that? You can write into us
