Speaker 3: you raise your kids. You think you're done when I team,

33
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,840

36
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 3: of staggered for three shows that I'm touring different components,

37
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: and so it never it feels like never ending story.

38
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: You just keep rolling. Are you like the footballer who

39
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: plays in the Grand Final? Every man in his dog,

40
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: every relation wants tickets. Do you have people going get

41
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: a ticket to the show? Everyone wants a freebie?

42
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's how you know who your good friends are.

43
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: The good ones never asked for free tickets. It's the

44
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 3: ones that naggives with three tickets. You go all right,

45
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: never getting a Christmas account from.

46
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: That persons they come out of the woodwork, or you

47
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: don't say is it something you found yourself saying a lot?

48
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: Yes, especially now that I'm in menopause. I tell you,

49
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: when it dawned on maybe I should ride this show.

50
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: I was in Melbourne and I was late for a

51
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: flight because the traffic was terrible, and I ran and

52
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 3: I'm no runner. I would want to be up front

53
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: about want anything, should you exactly exactly? I'm facing me.

54
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 3: So I'm running up to the counter and I get

55
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 3: the internet. I run, I'm talking like fifty meters to

56
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: the counter and when I get there, there's a man

57
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: there with a ponytail and quite oily hair. But I

58
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: mean that is irrelevant. He then to me, He looks

59
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 3: at me and goes, jeez, you're quote sweaty, aren't you.

60
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 3: Because then in that running, in that running, I managed

61
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: to work up myself into a full hot flashy And

62
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 3: you know when you're hot flashing so hard when you go,

63
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 3: am I having a panic attack?

64
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 4: Was a hot flush?

65
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: Yes?

66
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 3: And when yeah, And when that man said that to me,

67
00:02:55,760 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 3: you know, I said to him, you don't say you are.

68
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 3: I can see it. It's just running down your face.

69
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 3: And I thought, you know, we can all see stuff

70
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: on people. I can see the oily hair and his

71
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 3: stand up on his jacket. But I didn't say that.

72
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: So he dug himself a hole and then got the

73
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: shovel out again and kept digging.

74
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right. I know. I was like, oh,

75
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,399
Speaker 3: you don't say it, and then yeah, I can see

76
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 3: it clearly. And I was like, you know what if

77
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 3: I was sort of still in perimnipause, the only thing

78
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 3: that sids this man's life is that I'm already in

79
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 3: menopause and not in perry Pary. You would have meant

80
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 3: I jumped out of that counter and just by them

81
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 3: to the very end, and.

82
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:43,400

116
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 4: it was kind of funny. So I got the text

117
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 4: three o'clock in the morning, and I went to the loo,

118
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 4: and you know, and when I got back in bed,

119
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 4: I just had this voice in my head, sad.

120
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 3: Check his fine, And I never checked my phone in

121
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 3: the night. Yeah, and then but it wouldn't stop, like

122
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 3: the voice just kept going. And eventually the voice and

123
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,679

124
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 3: old check it because I'm awake now. So I checked

127
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,080

00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 3: wait for her to wake up or should I just call?

129
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,120
