0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Now? You guys were at my house the other day.

0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:27.920
<v Speaker 1>We had a very important team meeting. Yes, the three

0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:28.240
<v Speaker 1>of us.

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 2>You finally got toilet paper. I did and could use.

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Toilet paper you. I brought toilet paper over to her

0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 1>house with me. She invited me over and I know

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>joke packed toilet paper.

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I know.

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.600
<v Speaker 1>She never We often run out in our household, and

0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:42.479
<v Speaker 1>that's because there's two kids and a Matthew Johnson who

0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 1>uses a lot of squares.

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 3>But that is not what I was going to update

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:45.519
<v Speaker 3>you on.

0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember when you're at my house I did

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:49.159
<v Speaker 1>that little milky feet treatment.

0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, Laura was walking around the house with two

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 4>glad bags full of sou silic acid on her feet.

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:55.520
<v Speaker 3>It was disgusting. She was trying to melt her feet off.

0:00:55.520 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 1>You know why because someone said she could make some

0:00:57.600 --> 0:00:58.400
<v Speaker 1>cash only.

0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking about starting an only fans my feet so as.

0:01:01.360 --> 0:01:02.320
<v Speaker 3>Trying to like milk milk.

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:04.160
<v Speaker 2>The jewelry business that bad at the moment.

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Look, times are tough in retail. Let me tell you

0:01:06.400 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 1>it has not been a good year.

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:08.480
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I was like gonna make my feet or silky and smooth,

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.200
<v Speaker 1>and I just want it on the record. It was

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:16.280
<v Speaker 1>the worst decision I have ever made. Do not do

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>milky feet, because all it's done is make my feet

0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>so unbelievably dry but not dry enough to peel.

0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 3>Hold hold your feet up, No, I don't.

0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to hold it up. Hold that hook

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:25.840
<v Speaker 2>for it up.

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 3>Even you gotta scab it a band it.

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>No one's paying you to see those feets.

0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.920
<v Speaker 4>It looks like five miniweeds have been taped to the

0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 4>sole of your foot.

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Dry little toy.

0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 3>It actually hurts.

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 2>They've split and now they've been bleeding.

0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:45.200
<v Speaker 3>And I'm so toughed. He She's like, I'm gonna have

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 3>the best feet, not a bundle.

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:49.200
<v Speaker 2>You're a public figure. How can you do this to yourself?

0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to save some money. Like I said,

0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 1>it's been a bad retail year.

0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:54.560
<v Speaker 4>All right, Well, listen, hopefully I can put your feet

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 4>out in misery because I have a tactic to get

0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 4>us to only work four days.

0:01:58.880 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 3>Is it my only feet?

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:02.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we're going to show our boss photos of you're

0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:03.720
<v Speaker 4>on toes and he's going to make us all redundant.

0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>No, no, but the four day work week.

0:02:05.200 --> 0:02:08.240
<v Speaker 4>Science has backed it to a point of it being

0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 4>the best way to increase productivity. And I'm going to

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 4>call our boss next because I've got a picture him.

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:13.960
<v Speaker 4>We'll do it on the way. You're at the pickup. Oh,

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 4>thanks a Chemists warehouse, s head in today, great savings

0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 4>every day. He it's the pickup. Welcome back you, Britt,

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 4>Laura and Mitch here or thanks to Chemists Warehouse. Why

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 4>don't your head in today? You get great savings every

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 4>day now here at the pickup. It's a great, fantastic

0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:29.360
<v Speaker 4>show adored by the nation. I'm just reading the press

0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.000
<v Speaker 4>that's in front of me, my.

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 3>Wee headlines every day.

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:35.519
<v Speaker 4>True. Now we are on air every day. We're on

0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 4>air three to four Monday to Friday. But I think

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.920
<v Speaker 4>that could change because new studies out of Australia are

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.919
<v Speaker 4>saying that companies in Australia that trialed four day work

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:48.720
<v Speaker 4>weeks haven't looked back. So ten Australian businesses who were

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 4>trialing the four day work week, all ten have said

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 4>we love the four day work week.

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Can you believe that? Yes?

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's not shocking, No, I can't believe it

0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.760
<v Speaker 1>because so many people And I was guilty of this

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 1>when I worked to you know, it was ninety five.

0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 2>It was an eight until six job.

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 1>But I used to probably work at about thirty percent productivity.

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 3>I reckon i'd walk in.

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.680
<v Speaker 1>There, I would have Facebook minimized down in the corner.

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>And yes, I was in the office, but I was

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 1>working at like half blast.

0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 2>Well here's the thing.

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 4>The interesting part is despite all the reduced working hours,

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:21.680
<v Speaker 4>only four days seventy percent experience and increase in productivity,

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.400
<v Speaker 4>while the other thirty percent said productivity just remained the same.

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 2>So there's no loss at all.

0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>How do we, as a live radio show decrease our productivity?

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 3>Were like, we're tapping out now, fifteen minutes early.

0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:34.160
<v Speaker 2>I've thought about it. Ai.

0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Between the three of us, we have given the world

0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 4>enough words to create a radio show with AA every Friday,

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 4>and people won't even.

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>Know eyes out of a job.

0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 1>No, But I also don't know if that's how this works.

0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's about not doing your job anymore

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 1>and getting robots to do it. I think it's more

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:51.000
<v Speaker 1>about the fact that people work at such a like

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 1>a pathetic capacity.

0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 3>That they could just take a day off and still

0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:55.360
<v Speaker 3>get as much work done.

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:58.320
<v Speaker 1>If everyone else gets to decrease their workload to eighty percent,

0:03:58.400 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe we should try to as well.

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 2>Why don't we call our boss. I'm sure he's gonna

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.920
<v Speaker 2>love this, Tony. He's the boss of the radio station.

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:06.840
<v Speaker 4>And what just the three of us will put our

0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.920
<v Speaker 4>high of mind together and pitch a four day work week,

0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 4>no pick up on Friday.

0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:13.280
<v Speaker 3>It's not gonna go down well. But I also think, look,

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 3>the stats are there.

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's universities who are doing the studies, and if

0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>it's good enough for these ten businesses, it should be

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:20.479
<v Speaker 1>good enough right here.

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:23.080
<v Speaker 4>All right, I'm gonna play good copt your bad cop. Sorry,

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 4>by default I've died, so I've done a bad cop.

0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 5>Wouldn't laugh like that, Tony.

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>It's your favorite show, Tony, the man that mid the legend,

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the best boss that there ever was.

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:39.279
<v Speaker 2>High Afternoon?

0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh God, what do you want?

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:44.800
<v Speaker 4>As you know, it's it's the afternoon, so we are

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 4>on air. We just want to let you know that

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 4>we're on air, but we have a little pitch for

0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 4>you for the show.

0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Look, there has been some studies that have happened across

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 1>the nation. And now have you heard of the four

0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>day work week?

0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:57.920
<v Speaker 5>Of course, yeah, okay.

0:04:57.680 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 1>So it's been proven now that a four day work

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 1>week is just as productive as a five day work week,

0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.279
<v Speaker 1>and we think that it's something that we should trial

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:06.840
<v Speaker 1>to pick up.

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.839
<v Speaker 5>What industries have said that it's productive.

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, look ten Australian businesses. It doesn't exactly specify the industry.

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 5>So are you saying to me, you're gonna give me

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.200
<v Speaker 5>every reason under the sun why you should do a

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:20.320
<v Speaker 5>four day working week.

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, we think what we could do.

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>We could just extend Thursdays to an extra hour and

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 1>take the Friday off. It'd be better for everyone, have

0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:30.720
<v Speaker 1>a little little rest. We'll come in on Monday. We'll

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:32.880
<v Speaker 1>feel great, refreshed and ready for the three pm.

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we'll take over a Will and Woody show on

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 4>a Thursday. Perfect, and then they get a four day

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:36.920
<v Speaker 4>work week.

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 5>Two Ah, okay, okay, right here we go. Here's a

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.160
<v Speaker 5>question for you. When you do your radio show. Who

0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.279
<v Speaker 5>am giving it three o'clock to four o'clock? Who dominantly listens?

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Mum's in cars really small everyone across the stra.

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.559
<v Speaker 2>They're going to school to pick up the kids. Yeah,

0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 2>to pick up the kids.

0:05:56.800 --> 0:06:01.599
<v Speaker 5>So with that in mind, when are schools on you, I'm.

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Going to stop you in your tracks because I know

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 2>where you're going with this. Yeah, yeah, give him time.

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Listen, Tony, listener, we.

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.239
<v Speaker 1>Knew you were going to say this, so we've we've

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:12.680
<v Speaker 1>thought of a way around this.

0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 3>What we're going to do is.

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.840
<v Speaker 1>An extra fifteen minutes a day at the end of

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.840
<v Speaker 1>the show and on a Friday, we're going to run

0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>a highlights. We would never leave the people without it.

<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I've got a bone to pick with Laura, and I'm

0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 1>going to do it here where it's on a national platform. Okay,

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 1>she stole something from my house and I know.

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 3>I didn't you. I asked you and I took me

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 3>and it was mine.

0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:49.280
<v Speaker 2>Argue with me in the court of law after the break.

0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 2>It is a pick up around Australia, Britt, Laura and Mitch.

0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 4>Thanks to Chemist Warehouse heading today, go and do it

0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:56.320
<v Speaker 4>great savings every day.

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I have a bone to pick with my good friend,

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>my my work wife, Laura Burn.

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 2>God, I that could have gone either way.

0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 3>It was a real fifty to fifty split, wasn't it.

0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.400
<v Speaker 1>No, But I'm gonna need an unbiased opinion from you, Mitch,

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:11.559
<v Speaker 1>to set all this debate.

0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I've done.

0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Now, So is this a criminals? Do we need to

0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:16.240
<v Speaker 2>go full? Yeah?

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 3>What could I have possibly done to you? So to

0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 3>set this.

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Up, I Brittany moved into Laura's old house. So Laura

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 1>and her partner Maddie Jay lived in an apartment. They

0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 1>moved into a bigger house and it was perfect for

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>me because I'm perpetually alone. So I moved into the house.

0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 1>But when Laura moved out, it was all very chaotic.

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 1>She had the two little kids and she had a

0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 1>three legged dog. She was moving herself out and all

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the shit. So there was some stuff that she left behind.

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I had a mural of chalk on all the outside

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>walls that her kids had done. Anyway, irrelevant, she didn't

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>wash the walls, Auntie, Brittany, they drew especially four years

0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:51.520
<v Speaker 1>someone grateful and did not. So there was this one

0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:54.240
<v Speaker 1>particular plant, right, There was quite a lot of plans,

0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 1>but there was one particular plant that was almost dead.

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 3>It was on his last legs.

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Over the last two years, I have been in this

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.679
<v Speaker 1>house for two years, right, and I have nursed this

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:04.560
<v Speaker 1>plant back to life.

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:05.920
<v Speaker 2>I've got a lot of plants in your backyard.

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 3>They're all dead. They are not it's in jungle. I

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:13.199
<v Speaker 3>had bought plant healthcare for it. It's exactly what it

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 3>sounds like.

0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 4>And no embellishing, please in my court, and you hold

0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 4>your Laura.

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:19.560
<v Speaker 1>So I brought it back to life right, and it

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>does look great now. And see this little pot well

0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>do sitting out on the yard. So Laura came over

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:26.120
<v Speaker 1>on the weekend and as she was to do some work,

0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and as she was leaving like a hawk, she spotted

0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the plant for two years and she goes, oh, that

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:32.480
<v Speaker 1>looks good.

0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:33.720
<v Speaker 3>She's like, that's actually mine.

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:34.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to take that.

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>So she picked it up and I was like, Laura,

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:40.719
<v Speaker 1>you gave that to me two yars ago. One was

0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:43.720
<v Speaker 1>dead and now she goes, it's mine, it's meaningful, and

0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>she took it. Absolutely not how this happened. And I

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>feel like I am being framed and it's untrue to

0:09:54.080 --> 0:10:01.120
<v Speaker 1>know it's all incorrect. The plant your side, It was

0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:05.840
<v Speaker 1>into my garden. Okay, Britt doesn't take care of plants.

0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.240
<v Speaker 1>She doesn't know how to take care of a plant.

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Plant in her house is either plastic, if it's alive,

0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:14.920
<v Speaker 1>or it is at several different degrees of decaying and dead.

0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 1>You had your chance to speak their very first birthday.

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.800
<v Speaker 1>That was my husband's birthday when we first started dating.

0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>I bought him this plant. It used to sit in

0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>our bathroom. It's a succulent and it died because it

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't get enough light. It was dead in a plastic

0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.079
<v Speaker 1>pot and it was put into the garden. Anyway, as

0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I was leaving BRIT's house. The plant has not been

0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:37.560
<v Speaker 1>tended to. No one has watered it or taken care

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:39.720
<v Speaker 1>of The thing was still exactly in the spot in

0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:41.559
<v Speaker 1>the plastic pot where I left it when it was

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.440
<v Speaker 1>dead when I moved out, and it has sprung new

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 1>little leaves. I will post a picture of this on

0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the pickup, but it is not a beautiful plant.

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 2>But why did you? Did you take it or did

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 2>you leave?

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>And I said, this is the plant that I bought

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Matt for his birthday seven years ago. Do you mind

0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 1>if I take this? And Britt didn't answer, and I

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:00.959
<v Speaker 1>took that as a yes. So I took it home

0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and I've planted it in the backyard where it rightfully

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 1>belongs and it's family home.

0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Wait, so it's out of the plant and she can't

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:07.000
<v Speaker 2>even get it back.

0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 3>No, the in the garden.

0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:11.600
<v Speaker 1>If it was so important to you, why did you

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:11.959
<v Speaker 1>leave it?

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Because it was dead? Now it's back to life and for.

0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Two years I've nursed your back to Mitch. My question is, yes,

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:21.040
<v Speaker 1>can you take back something you've given someone that was.

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:23.600
<v Speaker 2>In the garden. I don't think that's ever going back.

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:24.720
<v Speaker 3>I judge you have to.

0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:28.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm presiding. I think it is a dog act

0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:32.000
<v Speaker 4>from you, Laura. I think it was a gift given

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 4>to britt and six months after if you had thought, God,

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:40.280
<v Speaker 4>I miss Maddie's little succulent so to speak. Sorry, that's

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 4>that's what I meant. I think with the six months

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.880
<v Speaker 4>you could have. But two years later, Brittain has formed

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.320
<v Speaker 4>a bond and I ruled that plant to be dug up,

0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.440
<v Speaker 4>embalmed and given back to brit in that court.

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:52.959
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I'm going to take a photo of the plant.

0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Please go to the pickup socials so you can see

0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:58.680
<v Speaker 1>the weed that Brittany is saying she knows back to life.

0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:00.679
<v Speaker 1>It is still half dead. Do you even want to

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>It's no part of brit that wants this plant.

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 2>It's a lie.

0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:07.240
<v Speaker 1>It's the principle. I cannot wait to post this photo.

0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Please go and look at it on the pick up right.

0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Also post photos of Mattie ssuculent. All right, well we

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:12.040
<v Speaker 2>are back after this.

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:14.560
<v Speaker 4>I'm a pickup. He hates the pick up right around the country. Britt,

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.319
<v Speaker 4>Laura and Mitch here thanks to Chemists Warehouse.

0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 2>You should head in today. Great savings every day. Guys.

0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I had something so scary happened to me this morning

0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:26.360
<v Speaker 1>and it has rocked me all day. So I was

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:29.640
<v Speaker 1>on my way taking the girls to daycare and I

0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 1>was driving past. It's probably about four hundred meters from

0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 1>where the local primary school is. And as I was

0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:39.319
<v Speaker 1>driving down, it was just before morning drop offs. Now

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.400
<v Speaker 1>this was just before the area where it turned forty,

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>so we were still a little bit from the school,

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:44.920
<v Speaker 1>but not too far. And as I was kind of

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 1>driving in, there's one area where there's a pedestrian crossing

0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.679
<v Speaker 1>and this little boy, he would have only been maybe

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>in year one, maybe year two, he ran out right

0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 1>in front of the car to cross the road and

0:12:56.160 --> 0:13:01.079
<v Speaker 1>it was so close to hitting him. Close you were driving,

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.079
<v Speaker 1>I was driving, I had the two girls in the car.

0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think that this little kid realized how

0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:08.080
<v Speaker 1>dangerous that could have been. And you know, when someone

0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:10.600
<v Speaker 1>crosses the road like fifteen meters in front of where

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:13.400
<v Speaker 1>the pedestrian crossing is, so you're not you're not thinking

0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.680
<v Speaker 1>about slowing down until you get to the pedestrian crossing.

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 1>So it was just this like it could have been

0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:20.000
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, I can't even think about it could

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:20.839
<v Speaker 1>have been so bad.

0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 3>But it got me thinking.

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this little kid was too young, I

0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 1>would say, to be walking to school by himself. And

0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:28.800
<v Speaker 1>maybe he got the bus and he got off or

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:33.040
<v Speaker 1>stop early, who knows exactly. But I'm like, what age

0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:36.280
<v Speaker 1>is it where it becomes appropriate to let your kids

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.040
<v Speaker 1>walk to school? Because I saw this and I was like,

0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.400
<v Speaker 1>surely year one, year two, surely.

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:42.760
<v Speaker 3>He was too young.

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Surely he was too little to be on his own

0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.479
<v Speaker 1>and not have someone escorting.

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:47.320
<v Speaker 2>All the way to the game. I think he won

0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 2>year too.

0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.800
<v Speaker 4>It's way too young to walk to school, not even

0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 4>for it, not even for a car hitting situation, but

0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:54.760
<v Speaker 4>just safety and stranger dangerous.

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Too young.

0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:57.440
<v Speaker 1>What if maybe his parents or they lived up the road,

0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:59.280
<v Speaker 1>like maybe it was only a couple of blocks. You know,

0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I was talking to school from like kindergarten. But that

0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:07.600
<v Speaker 1>was with my older brothers and sisters. Sorry, my sister's younger,

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.080
<v Speaker 1>so my older brothers who are three years older than me, so.

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:10.960
<v Speaker 3>They're still pretty young.

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 1>It was also important Macquarie not the city, which makes

0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:17.200
<v Speaker 1>a big difference. It's not the traffic and the hecticness

0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 1>that the city is. And we didn't live an hour away, like,

0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>we lived quite close to the school, so we I

0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 1>was fine.

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.360
<v Speaker 2>I always walked to them from school.

0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is the same, like I was the same

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:28.800
<v Speaker 1>when I was little, Like you know, we kind of

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:30.400
<v Speaker 1>we walked from where the bus stop stopped, and it

0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 1>stopped quite far from the school. But then I wondered,

0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.120
<v Speaker 1>was that just normal when we were kids and now

0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:37.840
<v Speaker 1>we have to be a lot more protective or like

0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:40.160
<v Speaker 1>where does the line sit now for parents who have

0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 1>young children? And I think it must be such a

0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:45.200
<v Speaker 1>hard thing to make a decision about because on one hand,

0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you've also got to think about safety, like you know,

0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>kids being unsafe as in, like you know, you hear

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.560
<v Speaker 1>horrible things about kids getting abducted and whatnot, and then

0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:55.840
<v Speaker 1>all those thoughts go through your mind. But I'd never

0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>really considered the safety around like just getting hit by

0:14:58.320 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 1>a car.

0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:00.520
<v Speaker 2>Like I kind of think that.

0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Kids that are old enough to walk to school would

0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>have enough road sense about them that they wouldn't be

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:05.240
<v Speaker 1>in danger for that.

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:06.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:07.520
<v Speaker 1>But then at the end of the day, I guess

0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you can drill something into a kid as much as

0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:11.240
<v Speaker 1>you possibly can.

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 3>They still are.

0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Kids, and their brain functioning is still learning, they're still growing,

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:17.760
<v Speaker 1>so they're still gonna make silly mistakes.

0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:19.800
<v Speaker 4>You know what my mom did grown up. I remember

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.720
<v Speaker 4>it was like year four, year five. You're six, So

0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:24.560
<v Speaker 4>how old would i've been? Eight, seven, seven, eight, nine,

0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:26.680
<v Speaker 4>six twelve? See, okay, so maybe even a bit older

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.560
<v Speaker 4>maybee nine or ten. My mum would walk me to school,

0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 4>and she'd get lot some of the kids that lived

0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:33.120
<v Speaker 4>in the neighborhood to walk with us, and she'd organize

0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:34.600
<v Speaker 4>a group and sometimes some of the other mums that

0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:37.320
<v Speaker 4>lead the group, and then like day by day, she'd

0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:39.440
<v Speaker 4>start leaving and it would just be the kids. But

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 4>we had the group of kids, so we were all together.

0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 4>All the neighbors could walk together. It was never alone.

0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 4>It was never two kids.

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:46.680
<v Speaker 2>That was a pack.

0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:48.760
<v Speaker 4>And then you kind of have that herd mentality you

0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 4>look out for each other and you're bigger, safer in

0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:51.120
<v Speaker 4>a pack.

0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:53.680
<v Speaker 2>I like as well, yeah, yeah, I do like that.

0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Well there.

0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I did do a bit of research into this because

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.040
<v Speaker 1>it's something that kind of rocked me this morning. So

0:15:57.040 --> 0:16:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Patty Fitzgerald, she's a child safety expert, and now she

0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of says, anything under the age of ten is

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:03.400
<v Speaker 1>just too young to be.

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Doing it on their own.

0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:06.640
<v Speaker 1>But also you've got to think about the size of

0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:09.000
<v Speaker 1>your child, like do you have a particularly tall kid,

0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:11.400
<v Speaker 1>because a tall child is going to be far more

0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:14.120
<v Speaker 1>visible to drivers than if your child is really little

0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 1>who might go unseen, you know. And this little boy

0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:18.640
<v Speaker 1>was just in my blind spot. Maybe he was older,

0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:21.800
<v Speaker 1>but he was small. But there is also some research

0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:24.560
<v Speaker 1>that's come out of Finland that says that if you're

0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>able to let your kids walk to school, it builds

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:29.400
<v Speaker 1>this sense of confidence in them and really helps them

0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:31.800
<v Speaker 1>in terms of their academia at school. It makes them

0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>smarter because.

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 3>They because.

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:37.200
<v Speaker 2>That's what makes sense.

0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.720
<v Speaker 1>It makes sense because they had this sense of purpose.

0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I feel like it's a really hard

0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 1>one and I think my kids are too young to

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:48.280
<v Speaker 1>have to worry about this yet to Molly'll be starting

0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>school in a year, and I think, like, when is

0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:52.400
<v Speaker 1>that line? And how does a parent know what feels

0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:53.360
<v Speaker 1>comfortable for their kids?

0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:55.560
<v Speaker 4>I think you made a great point, T Grimshort, Sorry,

0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:59.000
<v Speaker 4>just do you think that was very a current affair?

0:16:59.200 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 5>It was?

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.720
<v Speaker 3>And also all the great research of the world comes

0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:02.280
<v Speaker 3>out of Finland.

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:02.680
<v Speaker 5>Why is that?

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:06.840
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I'm traumatized by this morning. So of course,

0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:08.920
<v Speaker 4>all right, that's us done. You can podcast the show

0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.000
<v Speaker 4>on iHeart. Just search the pickup pretty self explanatory and

0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 4>you'll get all of us and you can catch up

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.320
<v Speaker 4>and well, what are you standing? By Die Tomorrow Bybee
