1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: The most annoying thing happened to me this morning, Ashton.

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 2: I'm listening.

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: You don't have this issue because you have multiple blue

4
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: bins for the cardboard. Yes, but we've had an influx

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: of cardboard coming into December. The worst we have blue

6
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 1: bins collected this morning. Because I've been stomping down the

7
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: blue bins so much, it's gotten stuck down the bottom

8
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: and so only half of the cardboard has gone out.

9
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: And the garbage men, who were normally pretty good, I'm

10
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: normally no complaints, but I was like, damn it, they

11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: could they not have checked?

12
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: They can shake it with the thing, can't they? And

13
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 2: there's a camera that looks. But also they've probably got

14
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: so many bins They're like, no time, just move on.

15
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I was doing so well of my

16
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: quota of like I've got rid of all the cardboard.

17
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 2: Fucking You've got to chop it up so small to

18
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: actually really get rid of it, I know. And it's Look,

19
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: the best thing about living here is I don't have

20
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: to take it out bring it back because they have

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: someone that does that. It's what Strata's fort But when

22
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 2: we lived at the other place and I had to

23
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 2: do it. Ah, it's a full time it's a I'm

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: not into it.

25
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: That's it's on my mind at the moment.

26
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 3: So well, all the best with the car, Thank you.

00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: and a dick for start, because it's not cold, but

38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,320

80
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: a bit behind, because that happens. It's not a rangling kids,

81

00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: and he well the drama, same beat the whole way through.

86
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: So he had the easiest job. This is because it

87
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: was jazz trumpet to about that these great tours have

88
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,360

90
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: Wow.

91
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,920

00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: it's like great love that.

93
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,360

Speaker 2: They started then each instrument would do a solo.

96
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: Oh that's that's stressful for the kids.

97
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 2: I really felt for them because they were good. No,

98
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: been out of time, but that's all right. They gave

136

Speaker 2: piece of bed instead of a piece of bread. So

137
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: I don't think he's going into Union anytime soon. But

00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 2: he did receive an award. We did receive an email

Speaker 1: Right?

147
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,560

00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: He's like chicken nuggets. Anyways, two awards. First one is

168
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 2: a certificate of merit. Okay, I'll slide it to you

169
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: on the table, but what.

170
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: Does merit stand for? Good?

171
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: Question? A certificate of merit? The certificate is a water

00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 2: to Oscar Wicks SRC, so Student Representative Council.

173
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: The quality of being good or.

174
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 2: Worthy is a part of the demon.

175
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: He's real good.

176
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: So he's really good. He's I've always said that about him.

177
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 2: Certificate of Goodness, of worthiness and goodness?

178
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: Is he pumped?

179
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 2: Oh he was. Yeah. He still wouldn't look at anyone

180
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: when he received it, but afterwards he was pumped.

181
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: So that's playing it off like it's nothing. He's going

182
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: to be the prime minister of this country. This one

183
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: and then this is the second one, and it's a

184
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: it's a platt, it's a crystal, it's been engraved.

185
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: It's like, how how are trophy stores still in operation? Hey,

186
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 2: that's a front school. That's school, well said. This one

187
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:38,199
Speaker 2: is for the twenty twenty five Academic Award, right wow, Wow,

188
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 2: the same kid who said bed instead of bread yesterday.

189
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: There you go. How many kids got the academic one

190
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 2: in every class?

191
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: Ship man? Yeah, that is amazing.

192
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: I don't know how well done to.

00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: You, Well done to April, Well done to Oscar Moore.

194
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 2: Importantly, haven't done a single piece of homework in a

195
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 2: twelve months.

196
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: How books have you read with him? None? And that's

197
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,199
Speaker 1: probably why he's doing so well.

198
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: Ye smart, because I'm justlexing. He's like, what what's that way?

199
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: I'm like, anyway, that's over and done with it.

200
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: We didn't get any awards for kindy. Yeah. I was like,

201
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: we didn't get the tap on the shoulder pre event.

202
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: So I was like, Marley hasn't won anything. And then

203
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: they all got an award. They all got a certificate

204
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: for completing year one. And then the only awkward thing

205
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: was they had the teacher would stand on the stage.

206
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: They were then call out each kid, but we weren't

207
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: sure what to do, like do we clap each child

208
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: or do we clap at the end? Very good first class,

209
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: all the kids, and it felt cruel not cheering on

210
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: these kids, as you know. He would say, and here's

211
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: Timmy Smith. Timmy would be.

212
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: Like, they call out each one individually from every.

213
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: Class, quick, very quick, Timm Smith, who we had three

214
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 1: classes in kindy and then second class people started being

215
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: a little cheer and then I was like, do I

216
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: be that parent? And then caught up Marley May's name

217
00:09:54,920 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: and I was like, whoa you, I don't care, that's

218
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: my I washing at the back. I was like she

219
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: loved I think she loved it.

220
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, shut.

221
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: But no good.

222
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 2: Question about the clapping just quickly because they did say

223
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: clap at the end, but everyone just ignored that and

224
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,839
Speaker 2: clapped during my hands and then I was like, we

225
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: meant to clap after then I felt like the odd

226
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: one out and I felt like like if if I

227
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 2: was looking at me, going so what, you're not clapping

228
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: for my kid? Everyone else's right, there's a fight in

229
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 2: the car park.

230
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: I don't know you're punching your dad's I don't need

231
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: that heat.

232
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: So we just clapped everyone.

233
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: You want to imagine up on stage to not cheer,

234
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: give them a check. Come on.

235
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: I think at one point like a lot of people

236
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 2: just like trying to find different parts of their body

237
00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 2: to clap because their hands are the red ro I

238
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 2: I'm dusting off all the Croissan crumbs. I noticed that

239
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: the you know, the kid come up, shake hands and

240
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 2: then receive the award photo op down off the stage.

241
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 2: There was one teacher who's still sticking with the elbow

242
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 2: from COVID. The elbow greeting. What's was very formal like

243
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 2: this to every.

244
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: Teacher's hugging kids, And I'm all for that, get tact.

245
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:32,119
Speaker 2: Get the fuck off my kids. Anyway. Are we in housekeeping?

246
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: Really quickly, really quickly. We were at the shops recently

247
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: and I bought an advent calendar, a blueie one, and

248
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: I bought one, and you stopped me and said, what

249
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: are you doing, you idiot? And you said you should

250
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: buy two. You have two kids, have three now, but

251
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: two of which are able to open up Advent calendars.

252
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 1: I got two. He thank you me, I'm thanking you.

253
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: Except these two Advent calendars are exactly the same, identical.

254
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I know. I've got the same too.

255
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: And I don't know how the fuck my kids know this.

256
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: But Marley was like, Lola opened my one and I

257
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: was like, they're the same, and she's like, no, I

258
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: had mine and Lola had hers. And I'm like, how

259
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: do you know? I can tell how I opened the

260
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: little things? And I was like, it's they're identical. Like,

261
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: doesn't make it, doesn't many difference whatsoever. Flipped out Also

262
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: Advent calendars. I'm going to say it, they're a bit ship.

263
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 2: They are ship.

264
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 1: They're so they're a bit ship. I stand by that.

265
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 2: It's just another thing like the Bluey one.

266
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to attack Bluey because I love Bluey,

267
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: but like number three was like a sticker, a sticker

268
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: of like a tree. I was like, obviously I only

269
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: paid six.

270
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 2: One of their bars of gold. God, obviously you.

271
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: Get your paid for, but you do. Even the kids

272
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: are like, can I open another one? And I was like,

273
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: you got a sticker, that's what we get for today?

274
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta wait, but we got those ones, but

275
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: my mother in law bought other ones, so they got two.

276
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 2: They're getting chocolate and Bluey every day chocolate. It's just

277
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 2: a cabri one, which is It's just it's just a gimmick.

278
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: I think I can lose the advent calendar. Yeah, that's

279
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: non critical.

280
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 2: Are you doing elf on the shelf too?

281
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: Mate, you're doing it all. I'm jumping in the deep end.

282
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: The biggest problem we're having is Mason wants to know

283
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 2: where the chimney is. I've got air con, babe, just

284
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: coming straight through that flat. I said, I'm gonna have

285
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: to stay up and let him in.

286
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: Literally, what's that one called. It's an inverter.

287
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 2: It's an invertery.

288
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: Santa Claus comes through the inverter, it comes back chilled.

289
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: Becomes a hand. She's still she's it's perplexing to her.

290
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 2: But anyway, I just said, I'll let him in the

291
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: front door. But you've got to be asleep.

292
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 1: Yes, anyway, you guys don't do elf on the shelf.

293
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 2: No, I'm not starting that noise. And Oscar was like,

294
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: some of the kids have elves at home, and I

295
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 2: was like.

296
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: There's fucking elves everywhere. L's in the classroom doing that.

297
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: It's amazing. It's the best thing ever in my life.

298
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 2: I don't have time for that.

299
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: No, it's dude, I'm telling you jump on it. Nope, okay,

300
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: But the look on their faces you can kind of

301
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: see why people would start cults. Like the power you

302
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 1: wheeled with these hands, Like I wrote Merry Christmas in

303
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: flower on the bench two secs wiped it off. I've

304
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: got And the look at my kids. They wake up

305
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: and they're like, where is that little sneaky elf? And

306
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: they're like, holy shit, he's written in flower. And I'm like,

307
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: isn't it crazy? And they're like it's so magical. And

308
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, should I start a cold?

309
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 2: Just an elf? Coult?

310
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: And the rules are great, you can't touch the elf

311
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: otherwise he loses his magic.

312
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: Kids can't touch them.

313
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: No, so if they want to touch the elf, that

314
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: means for that night he won't move. So they can't

315
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: touch them. And so they're like, they want to touch them,

316
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: but they can't.

317
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: I just think it's a bit march.

318
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: We've done, Like it's on the toilet seat with toilet

319
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: paper everywhere. Awkward from Nanna when she had to go

320
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: to the middle of the night and she's like, I

321
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: fucking touch the elk.

322
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: A shit on the elk.

323
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: It was hanging from a light. It's amazing. And the

324
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: best thing is the thing that you're missing out on

325
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: is the fact that's sorry getting aggressive, the fact that

326
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: the elf reports back to Santa Claus every evening. He's

327
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: watching the elves and the elf can't talk, but he's listening.

328
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: So the kids tell the elf what day one for Christmas?

329
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: Because the elf is going to tell Santa Claus. It's

330
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: just it's it's like a security camera for well behaved kids.

331
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: Are you a salesman? Off on the shelf?

332
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: I've got a pallet of them at home.

333
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm not getting into it. You need

334
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 2: another thing. I've got this already and I have to

00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 2: out of the garage. It's my job. It's about two

339
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: hundred years old, that tree. It's been used for so

340
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 2: many Christmases.

341
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: You only you, you're thirty three.

342
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: It's been passed down from generations. But it's shit everywhere

343
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: that's enough for me.

344
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: And this shit on the wall, the glue on the

00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,000

352
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 2: It is not I can't make up news.

00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:05,920

Speaker 2: Fake news? Okay, what do you got for me here? Okay?

355
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 2: Children who were cuddled and hugged grow up to be

356
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: the happiest according to which who's done this Harvard research?

357
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: Fuck off they have.

358
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 2: I feel like if people just write the word Harvard

359
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 2: in there, that like which that's eligible?

360
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: Which Harvard Harvard?

361
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 2: And like Instagram Harvard.

362
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: Sure that's not like people going to study at Harvard

363
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: and like what are we going to learn today? And

364
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: they're like about kids being happy when they get a hug.

365
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 2: It's like duh, no shit, yeah, I mean like, oh,

366
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 2: they are, yeah, cuddled and hugged. Isn't that what you

367
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 2: meant to like? Isn't that what you do with your kid?

368
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 2: Like give mudle, give the my hug, something's wrong. Of

369
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 2: course they're going to be happy on people.

370
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: Some people out the ash of our age put myself

371
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: a bit younger.

372
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm early thirties, your late thirties.

373
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: They never they never heard I Love you from their parents,

374
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: and they never got a cuddle. Really yeah, yeah, it's

375
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: going to be interesting to see, like we're too nice

376
00:16:59,200 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: to our kids.

377
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 2: No me, man, we give them too much luck.

378
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: We do, and like I think time will tell when

379
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 1: they grow up if we've done the right thing or not.

380
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 2: I know. It's that old thing where it's like our

381
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: generation didn't get enough love, so we knee jerk reactions

382
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 2: way too far.

383
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 1: So the pendulum swung both ways, and then for the

384
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: next generation it'll even out in the middle they get

385
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: a cuddle where they still get the wooden spoon.

386
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 2: You get both both worlds. Is that that's where the

387
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: saying comes from. I think, Yeah, anyway, that's breaking news.

388
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: That was great, That was good, one of your best.

389
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 2: Just thought it had Harvard attached to it.

390
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 1: Just quickly. I was snooping around your house when paying attention,

391
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: and I looked in your kid's room. I wanted to

392
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: see this bunk beds there.

393
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:38,800

Speaker 2: Yeah, we did it.

396
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: It looks good.

397
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 2: But this does look good. You get those from marketplace? What? Yeah?

398
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: How much you pay for them?

399
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 2: Two hundred?

400
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: That's very good.

401
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 2: It's good price.

402
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: They look brand new.

403
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're pretty nice. They were pretty well off. I

404
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 2: would say, how did you get them in the car?

405
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 2: We had to disassemble it at the house, reassemble it here.

406
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,479
Speaker 1: You had to go on someone's house the tools and

407
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: disassemble And was that negotiated prior? I just did the

408

Speaker 2: We know that every school's different.

471
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: I'm not being to hell, but I imagine it is just

472
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: like just one big street of like parking pickup and

473
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: drop off.

474
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,439
Speaker 2: You get there and they're like, guess what you're going

475
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: to do for eternity school pickup?

476
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: And it's thirty fucking five degree in it's no air on.

477
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 2: It's crazy, But anyway, I picked the kids up, I

478
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,360
Speaker 2: went down to the main road. I had to pick

479
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 2: it up later than usual because he was doing an

480
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 2: after school care thing. So picked up oscar, headed down

481
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 2: the main road. Three lanes, bus lane, two regular lanes.

482
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 2: School zones are over at this point. The person in

483
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 2: front of me was driving very slowly. Some people think

484
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 2: you got to drive thirty in the forty zone, like

485
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: they're going to get to Merit points back, like, come on, mate,

486
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 2: hit the speed. But it was past that anyway, So

487
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 2: it's seventy usually on that part of the road. Yeah,

488
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: it's decent streaming drop. It's a big stretch too. But

489
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: and I was like, God, this person is infuriated because

490
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 2: they were also not paying attention, so you could tell

491
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: that they were looking at something else as well. And

492
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 2: I had the kid in the car and I thought,

493
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 2: I'm just going to nip into the bus. I had

494
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: to get around him because they were they are clearly

495
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 2: not competent to drive. So and when I went past,

496
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 2: I could see they were looking at BCF for something

497
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 2: on driving pass I like, oh, I could use a

498
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: new new tent. You could use a new driving license

499
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 2: for starters. Anyway, I very thank you, really quick whipped

500
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 2: back into that lane in front of that person undertaking.

501
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: I did the undertake, which in the bus don't we

502
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 2: don't condone. You're allowed on the bus lane for certain things, but.

503
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: If someone's going more than half under the limit, you

504
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: got to undertake.

505
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: Yes. Anyway, the lights pulled up at the lights and

506
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 2: a bus pulls up next to me, and I see

507
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 2: this hand out of the bus window. You can picture this.

508
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 2: I was like, what the fuck is going to doing?

509
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 2: Is he cleaned his window or something. It's trying to get

510
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 2: my attention. Put the window down and let's just say

511
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,360
Speaker 2: I wasn't in the mood. Let's start this with that.

512
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 2: I put the window down and lean over to the

513
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 2: passenger side. I was like, yeah, like what do you

514
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: want And he was like, oh, the bus lane is

515
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 2: not for overtaking, and he did get me when I

516
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 2: was not in the mood, and I said, I said,

517
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,239
Speaker 2: I didn't know you're a police officer as well as

518
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: a bus drip.

519
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: Witch.

520
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 2: Very clever, very good from you, thank you and half

521
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: and it was just and I blank stared at him

522
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 2: like with nothing. I didn't you know reaction. Usually I'm

523
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 2: like I'll hit you with a few different things. I

524
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 2: just thought this is enough. And he looked at me

525
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 2: and he was like it's dangerous. And I said, well,

526
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: your light's gone green. You're holding everyone up, so thanks

527
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 2: for the feedback, and put the window off and he

528
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 2: was just like shuts by, shots by. Anyway, we're going

529
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 2: and Oscars in the car inside, Oscars in the car

530
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: and he goes, what was that? I said, hey, ask you.

531
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 2: I said, oh, do you know how I tell you

532
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: to mind your own business? That's what happens when you

533
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 2: don't mind your own business. And he was like getting

534
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 2: made a food off. He's like, well done, sir. Anyway,

535
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,439
Speaker 2: I kept going and I cheered me right up. I

536
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 2: was just so I was in a bad mood victory.

537
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 2: I just thought it was worth my you know it

538
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 2: was it wasn't illegal. I did chat GTPT see if

539
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 2: it was illegal, and it's legal to driving the bus

540
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 2: lane for a couple hundred meters if you make it

541
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 2: a turn, I'm calling an undertake overtake hill.

542
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: So I think it's great.

543
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 2: So am I in the wrong? Did I do the

544
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 2: right thing?

545
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 1: No? I think I will go into battle for you

546
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: and defend you to my last breath.

547
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I think like I didn't if I impeded the

548
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 2: bus fair but he was hundreds of meters behind, and

549
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,479
Speaker 2: I've just gone whack and moved on with my line.

550
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: If you hopped out of the car and you uppercutted.

551
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 2: Him, that was if he wanted to have a crack.

552
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,640
Speaker 1: But I think, like the harmless joke, it's a war

553
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: of words, which was one.

554
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he would have driven off thinking I'm

555
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 2: going to rethink my whole life.

556
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not driving buses anymore.

557
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not stopping and giving people road rules.

558
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: So shout out to all of those who work in

Speaker 2: you on because Matt was really interrogating me yesterday about

572

Speaker 2: all the situations?

573
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,800

Speaker 1: do it.

576
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 2: No, no, To be fair, it was three messages in

577
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 2: a row and that's what got me going. And I

578
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 2: was like, what if it was like one message, well constructed,

579
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 2: no problems. It felt like an interrogation he got. He

580
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 2: caught me off guard because both kids are really painful

581
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: getting out of the house yesterday after you left, and

582
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,840

585
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 2: That's not how you would have asked that question. I said,

00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 2: you have never asked a question with that time.

587
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,520

00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: You were on TV.

628
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, one time. That's enough.

629
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: That's enough for a start accounts. I think it was

630
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: like three years ago.

631
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 2: We started doing the podcast it'll be it'll be coming

632
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 2: to sorry, but who's counting.

633
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,239
Speaker 1: At the time Ash was working full time and it's

634
00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: nine to five. Yeah, he was then in the middle

635
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: the transition out of that ninety five. Thankfully he got

636
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 1: that redundancy. He is now a full time content creator.

637
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: What is that like for you?

638
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 6: Positive and negative? I want to start with? Which one

639
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 6: should I start with? I'll start with start with the negative. No,

640
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 6: I'll start with the positive. I think positive is like,

641
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 6: it's finally so great to see you thrive in a job.

642
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 6: Thank you, I think, and just like the amazing opportunities

643
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 6: you get we get as a family. I feel very

644
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 6: grateful for like all the experiences and whatnot. The negative

645
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 6: side of it is when you turn around and you say, oh,

646
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 6: I've got to go to Vegas next week.

647
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 5: Sorry, the last minute chaos for me.

648
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 6: I obviously I'm very organized in the last minute trips

649
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 6: and stuff, and he doesn't know where he's going to

650
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 6: be in next next month.

651
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 2: So that I love that part of it.

652
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: I love the being content creator is like perfectly crafted

653
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: for people.

654
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 2: With add ADH. But yeah, it is because the chaos

655
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 2: is I like the thought of I don't know what

656
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 2: today is going to bring you, and like you never

657
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 2: know what he a you're going to get that day,

658
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, he's a paid job. You could

659
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 2: go to Vegas. You're like, oh, I'm going to preak

660
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 2: my word. And then whenever say I've got to go

661
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: somewhere is like getting paid. I'm like, yep, I was

662
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 2: the first question. If I wasn't, It's like it has

663
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: to be the best opportunity I.

664
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 6: Think you've used as well as something like the lines

665
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 6: of it's in the contract.

666
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 5: I've got to go, oh.

667
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's because I've made him in there.

668
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: I'll show the contract I have.

669
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 2: I have pulled that one out too. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

670
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 2: but to be fair, I am way more present when

671
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: I'm here than having a job or I have to

672
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: go to the city and stuff.

673
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 6: That's also a very big positive, like you being around

674
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 6: a lot.

675
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, the drop off you were a little bit nervous about,

676
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: as you would be. I guess like missing the security

677
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: of a nine to five. Was there any point where

678
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 1: you kind of like the nerves went away and you're like, oh, no,

679
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: he's doing really well here.

680
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 6: No, I'm still forever I feel like, well, no, I

681
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 6: feel like you couldn't say something, do something, and then

682
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 6: just amount of time. I know who you are, so

683
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 6: I feel like there's always nurse.

684
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: We've had Ashon muzzled on the podcast for a long time.

685
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: We don't much better for the Restord. He's a good guy, Yeah, one.

686
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 5: Of the top guy. Thank you, only says good things.

687
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 2: Thank you.

688
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: Speaking of Vegas, I I'll be honest, I was a

689
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: little bit judgmental when ash said we're going to go

690
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: to Vegas. We're going to the Formula one. We've got

691
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: these really exciting things planned. It's all for April's birthday.

692
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: How was the trip for you?

693
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 5: It was actually amazing.

694
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: I am very.

695
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 6: Contract I was very impressed obviously, Like I do a

696
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 6: lot of the booking, the planning of trips and whatnot.

697
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 5: As we know, Ashton has dyslexia.

698
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, so this dog has really driving me fucking crazy.

699
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: Tap dancing under the table, showbiz.

700
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 2: Let me dance, guys, I want to be too. Here

701
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 2: we go. Just for everyone that's listening and watching, I

702
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:17,719
Speaker 2: picked the dog up.

703
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: This is panting, is not?

704
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 2: It is alright? Sorry Vegas?

705
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I was. Actually it was great.

706
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 6: It was I think what worked in my favor was

707
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 6: that we stuck on Sydney time because I'm usually like

708
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 6: nine pm I want to go to bed, and I

709
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 6: was worried that.

710
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 5: He'd be like, no, we got to stay out, blah

711
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 5: blah blah.

712
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 6: But it worked in our favor that we said on

713
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 6: Sydney time so I could act like I was a

714
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 6: party girer and stayed up till like three am.

715
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: Did you have any say on the itinery?

716
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 5: No, no, which is kind of nice.

717
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 2: I think sometimes April usually organizers all actually said all

718
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 2: the family holidays, so it was nice for her to

719
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 2: just put a feed up and do a shipload of walk.

720
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

721
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 6: I did ask to like double check what name you

722
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 6: used on my passport.

723
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, like she can't trust me. I was like, I

724
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 2: got offended.

725
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 6: I was like, well you would openly admit you've got dyslexia.

726
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 5: So I was waiting for my name to be spelt wrong.

727
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: I can't do fucking numbers. And I blame Laura for this.

728
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: But we've got a call about Poppy's birth certificate and

729
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: I put the month wrong.

730
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 5: Oh gosh.

731
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 2: And I was like, Laura, what do you meaning of

732
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 2: the month wrong?

733
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: I went too early, put nine instead of ten.

734
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 2: Right, okay, right, right, Well that's easy, especially like the

735
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: passport form is stressful.

736
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: I don't America as well.

737
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I think one wrong stroke of the pen

738
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: and you're out. You did it. She did her own stuff. Yeah,

739
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 2: you won't trust me that.

740
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 6: The questioning got intense when you go through the customs

741
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 6: and the security guys.

742
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: What do you do? What do you do for work?

743
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 5: Are you doing here?

744
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: Yeah? Like what did your husband doing?

745
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 2: You're like, and.

746
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 5: Then you do the fingerprint thing.

747
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, do you remember like back in the day, I

748
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 6: get really sweaty, palms, nervous. So still they never can

749
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 6: like it doesn't work because my finger.

750
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 5: Is just sweaty and.

751
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, she's nervous.

752
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were saying they're so strict for you to

753
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 2: get in, but when you leave and they're like, yet,

754
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 2: when I was going in because I've got writing on

755
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: me on my hands and stuff, They're like, what's this

756
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 2: thing that I mean? I'm like, Bro says love you, okay,

757
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 2: just chill. Everyone's gang affiliated, and it's like, yeah, I'm

758
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 2: part of the Toddally gang. It's like, for God's sake, anyway.

759
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 1: Reuben wants to know who wears the pants in your relationship.

760
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 6: I think if you asked either of us this would

761
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 6: answer ourselves.

762
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 5: Well, I'm no, I'm going for good books here, we'd

763
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 5: each say ourselves.

764
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 6: Because I feel like there's certain times that you are

765
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 6: very stubborn.

766
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 5: If I want to do something and you're.

767
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: Saying no, I'm not, just proves it, Yes I am.

768
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 6: So I feel like, yeah, stubborn McGee over here like

769
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 6: to have a say, but I yeah, I just.

770
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: Got an nickname for the podcast.

771
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say in different areas of the house

772
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 2: for sure, Like in different you know, I think sometimes

773
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 2: I pull rank and just like I'm pulling rank, it

774
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 2: means nothing, but I think it means something and that's

775
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 2: probably about it, and I just do it anyway. But yeah,

776
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:19,720
Speaker 2: I'm pretty stubborn.

777
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like from an outsider's perspective, and obviously

778
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time with Ash, we don't

779
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: have the pleasure April spending a huge amount of time

780
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 1: with each other. But I feel like the pants are shared.

781
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like there's no like, yeah, look, there's

782
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 2: certain things that I wouldn't cross her for sure, but

783
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 2: there's go on no, But yeah, I would agree with April.

784
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 2: I think I'm pretty stubborn.

785
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

786
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 1: From Charlotte, she wants to know, what is the dumbest

787
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: argument you guys have ever had of a parenting Oh,

788
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: I'm all for an argument.

789
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 6: Well, I feel like we're pretty good these days. We

790
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 6: like to I'll be like, lower your voice, let's talk.

791
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 6: But back in the day, I think like one of

792
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 6: the dumbest things would be with probably like when Oscar

793
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 6: was like brand newborn six weeks old, would blame each

794
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 6: other about his bad traits from you, that's from you.

795
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 5: Six weeks old.

796
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: Vividly, I vividly remember I said once dumb. I said that,

797
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 2: I was like, how many coffees did you have today

798
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 2: because he wouldn't sleep and she was breastfeeding and she had,

799
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 2: like to be fair, she would only have one. But

800
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 2: I said that and she said, no, no, no, this is

801
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 2: it true. Yeah, but she said no, no, no, this is

802
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 2: from your shit genetics. But very mind we were both

803
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 2: very sleep deprived.

804
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,399
Speaker 5: In the post part of Yeah, it was a.

805
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 2: Really tough we know, it's like the trenches, as you

806
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: would say. So I think after that it was pretty

807
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: much like, oh that happened because we were both so tired.

808
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a serious wasn't.

809
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 5: It was an argument? And I think that's the dumbest argument.

810
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's got to be up there. Yeah, is it

811
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 2: like toned?

812
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: Do you guys have you know, like if you asked

813
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: for something and you go, I don't know where it is?

814
00:35:58,880 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 1: Is that that you guys off?

815
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 2: No? I think April whuld she she'll just like overly

816
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: clean the house that she wouldn't thinks that she wouldn't

817
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 2: usually do when she's got the ships, and I can

818
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: pick up on it. I'm like, look at you go

819
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 2: like and I'll point it out. But I think I'm

820
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: pretty I'm pretty moody. I'm pretty Yeah, up and down,

821
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 2: so like, oh, I can tell, So I'll be the

822
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 2: first admit that. Yeah, sometimes my tone and my attitude

823
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 2: can can set April off. But sometimes she'll know and

824
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 2: she'll she'll be like like yesterday when I, yes, I

825
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 2: wasn't in the afternoon, I was not in a good mood.

826
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 2: I think my meds just made me crash yesterday and

827
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 2: April do you want to talk? Like she knew, and

828
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 2: she like, do you want to talk about that? Not really?

829
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 2: And she just left it And that was smart because

830
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: I think there wasn't anything wrong.

831
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: That's a trick question, like when Laura's like, do you

832
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: want to talk about it? And I'm like, it's gonna

833
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: make it more of an argument.

834
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 2: Because there wasn't anything. It was just I could not

835
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 2: get out of this and I didn't know there was

836
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 2: nothing about it, and I think it was it was

837
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 2: just meds.

838
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes I think I'm gonna get picks, obviously, but sometimes

839
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: you just sorry. Sometimes you just getting a grubby mood.

840
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: Me like last weekend, I was just in a shitty mood.

841
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 2: You can't be happy all the time. You've got to

842
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 2: balance it out at some point, like you, I mean,

843
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 2: you've got to like, you got to have the loads

844
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 2: to appreciate the highest form that you go. Put it

845
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 2: on T shirt, write it down, Write that down to him.

846
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: No, okay, last time I was grumpy, Laura was like,

847
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: can you just cheer up? Okay, you've been grumpy all day.

848
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, I got like a ship coffee and I

849
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: was like, coffee is not very good.

850
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,959
Speaker 2: Sorry, it's equivalent. It's equivalent to when like we as

851
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 2: men go we relaxed, and it's like, oh fuck, And

852
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 2: look I have said that a bunch of times, and

853
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 2: it's mainly because it's just my personality to be a

854
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 2: cheeky ship and I think like that's the equivalent of that.

855
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, next question, this might start an argument, Oh what

856
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: what would be your pet peeve about Ash?

857
00:37:59,080 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: Don't have one.

858
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 5: Your pet peeve?

859
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: No, you're okay.

860
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 6: I think I've got two. It's very minor, like it's

861
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 6: just annoying things. You're someone who will not replace the

862
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 6: toilet roll?

863
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 5: Is that a pet peeve?

864
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 2: Bullshit? That's a lie.

865
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: Well, there's the stubborness we spoke about earlier.

866
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 2: I feel attacked.

867
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 5: No, okay, do you know what it is? You don't?

868
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,320
Speaker 6: So if you take the last roll out because I

869
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 6: stack fresh ones in the cupboard in the bathroom ready

870
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 6: to quickly. You know, you stuck on toilet. There's no

871
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 6: whip one out. You're very much won't replace the pile.

872
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 2: I won't replace the replacements.

873
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: Yes, I feel like there's always two people in every household,

874
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: like Laura is. I feel like I'm attacking Laura. But

875
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 1: Laura will just put the new one on top of

876
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: the empty one.

877
00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 2: Infuriating, right, Yeah, is that one of those one you

878
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 2: gonna like pinch both sides to get it off or

879
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 2: is it just slide on, slide off that, Laura, Come on.

880
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,880
Speaker 6: And then your other one is, which I appreciate you

881
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 6: taking the garbage out, but then I go to put

882
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 6: garbage back in and the bags.

883
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: I thought it's something sloppy, and you've and you're like,

884
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 1: I've got to fucking clean out the empty bucket.

885
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 2: I'm going to say that I thought that I would

886
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: take it, you would replenish it. That's how I thought.

887
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 5: Maybe just tell me next time, communicate it.

888
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 2: When you don't leave it, it's going to be real heated. No,

889
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,879
Speaker 2: it's not that's fair. I think that if that's all,

890
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 2: that's wrong with me. I'm fine with that.

891
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can ask this question?

892
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 5: Love it, go for it?

893
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: But has I asked bort you and your lingerie?

894
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,280
Speaker 5: No one asks that. You're asking?

895
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 2: How dare I have any interest in a hobby?

896
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: God?

897
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 5: What's considered lately?

898
00:39:59,160 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: Bring it out.

899
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 2: Within the year?

900
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 1: How long ago?

901
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 6: There?

902
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 2: I have to stop myself from buying more, and that's

903
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 2: a problem I've got.

904
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I definitely got more lauderie than days of the week.

905
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 2: Nice, there you go.

906
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,800
Speaker 1: I want to get into that from my relationship, getswer

907
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: the questions. Maybe Christmas.

908
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 2: I'll get it for Christmas.

909
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:20,439
Speaker 1: Yeah?

910
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 2: Is it weird if I bout your wife? Launder?

911
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: Right? It makes it better? Has ashes ADHD diagnosis change

912
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:30,839
Speaker 1: the relationship at all?

913
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:31,919
Speaker 5: Yeah?

914
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 6: I think it's definitely improved it. It's just a more

915
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 6: understanding about how his brain works and what he does.

916
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 6: And then I just feel like you being on meds

917
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 6: has completely changed your productiveness.

918
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: Really.

919
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 5: Yeah?

920
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, the crash is bad, but it's not as often

921
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 2: as what's the crashes in so like, it depends how

922
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 2: quickly my body metabolizes it that day. If my body

923
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 2: metabolizes it faster than usual, and I haven't caught it.

924
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 2: And then it's a like, yes, say I was, like

925
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 2: I just couldn't get out of it, Like I couldn't

926
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 2: get out of the slump, like you think like crack addicts,

927
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 2: they're like, oh, crack, this is amazing, and they're like,

928
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 2: I don't have any crack left in me. And it's

929
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 2: like the plunge, the plummet and a lot of the

930
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 2: time it's not that bad. Yes, it was just I

931
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 2: don't know what it was. It was one of those

932
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 2: days where I was I think I was just physically

933
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,439
Speaker 2: exhausted as well, just from the heat and everything over

934
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 2: that my body metabolized it way quicker than normal, and

935
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 2: it was obvious. And I like, I'm not gonna side

936
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 2: her and say it wasn't. It was definitely obvious. I'm

937
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 2: much better today for now. Nah, but most days sweet,

938
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 2: but the production is like you know when I call

939
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 2: you up and it's like I'm I'm on speed as

940
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 2: it was like around the half.

941
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 5: Imagine that, Yeah, get shit done better.

942
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 1: Did Were you surprised with the diagnosis?

943
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 6: Not surprised, No, not at all, shock shocker. Surprised with

944
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 6: like the medication effect.

945
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: And was it instant or did it take a while

946
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: to hard to say.

947
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 5: I kind of remember when you started men's I.

948
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,399
Speaker 2: Don't think it was completely instant. I think you're sort

949
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 2: of like anything, like you've got to start with a dose, right,

950
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 2: and it's going to be there's going to be lower

951
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 2: than what you would need so that it's not dangerous.

952
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 2: And like even this morning, I had to go back

953
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 2: and get my heart checked again today so that I

954
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 2: can continue, because obviously it elevate your heart rate, and

955
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 2: my family's got heart disease, artery disease, anything else to

956
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 2: do with your heart. So I've got to continually be

957
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 2: checked every few months so that I don't kill myself

958
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 2: with medication. So I think the first little while was

959
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 2: sort of like take taking less and then when you

960
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 2: go for another consultant, you can you sort of they

961
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 2: sort of break it down for you, and it's like, well,

962
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 2: you're obviously going to metabolize it quicker, you need a

963
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 2: high dose, and you might need something to top you

964
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,760
Speaker 2: up throughout the day, which I do need just because

965
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,399
Speaker 2: I'm quite highly strong, and you know what I mean,

966
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 2: I'm sort of always on the move a little bit,

967
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,760
Speaker 2: like especially up here, So it was like I definitely

968
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 2: needed to be topped up. But yeah, I would say

969
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 2: it started to get once I'd had that second sort

970
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,879
Speaker 2: of consultation about it started. You could I could feel the.

971
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: Difference and also good when you're busy with work, you

972
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: can just you know, dip into his stash and sash

973
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: any misuse of prescriptions.

Speaker 1: back and he didn't have a full horse tattoos.

982

998
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,920

00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,399
Speaker 2: She deserves that for herself and I'll just buy it

1022
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 2: and she'll be like, oh, I'll be like, well, you

Speaker 1: Coming out tonight? Mine is Ash's been very open and

1038
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 1: honest about some of the struggles that he's had with

1039
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: his parenting in the past. From your perspective, you obviously

1040
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 1: get to see it day and day out. How do

1041
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: you think he's going as a dad?

1042
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 6: I think you're very hard on yourself because I feel

1043
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 6: like you are literally like holding You're the glue for

1044
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 6: the family. You hold us together. You're the backbone, You're

1045
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,760
Speaker 6: the you are the impulse person. So if like stuff

1046
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 6: needs to get done, you do it when you're not around.

1047
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 6: And I'm solo parenting. I'm way more stressed because the

1048
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 6: kids don't listen to me, and listen to you. No,

1049
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 6: I think you're doing amazing and I appreciate everything you do.

1050
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 2: Thank you, I do. I am very hard on myself.

1051
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 2: I'm always thinking of like different ways to do things

1052
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 2: instead of just I'm so sick of yelling at my kids. Man,

1053
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 2: I'm so sick of it, and admit it makes me sad,

1054
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:16,919
Speaker 2: you know. And I've said that to the kids. I said,

1055
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 2: I hate that every time I need something done, I've

1056
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 2: got to yell because then when it's done and you

1057
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 2: guys aren't here, it's sad for me. So yeah, I'm

1058
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 2: pretty hard on myself because I want to be able

1059
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 2: to do things differently. But you know, you know what

1060
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 2: it's like. It's like sometimes you just need to get it.

1061
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 2: It needs to needs to be done, so you've got to,

1062
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 2: you know, pull out the old voice, praise for it,

1063
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 2: and yeah, it does. It does hit me harder than

1064
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 2: people think that.

1065
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 6: I feel like I remind you as well. I'm like,

1066
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,280
Speaker 6: we're not the only ones yelling at our kids. It's fine,

1067
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:44,439
Speaker 6: Like it's fine.

1068
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, And I just I just hate. I

1069
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 2: just hate it, man, like I used to be.

1070
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 1: Like I sometimes it's a bit of a reset for

1071
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: yourself as well. Yeah, Like I like a week of

1072
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: general parenting and I was like doing great then this morning.

1073
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's it. Like I've started to apologize for

1074
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 2: a sort of like yelling, just so that I don't

1075
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,320
Speaker 2: feel as bad about it because I was just feeling horrible.

1076
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, how do you think April is doing?

1077

1078
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 2: The kids a latch onto her. They always bypassed me

1079
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 2: to ask mum for something because they're going to get

1080
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,600
