00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,599
Speaker 1: Uh, this is like an hour. It's a shout out.

00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: Really please, I want to shout out to the self

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: service check out lady yesterday afternoon because we couldn't scan

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: the barbecue chicken, so she gave it to me for free.

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: What yeah, what, I won't say which supermarket was. I

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: don't want to get her in trouble.

7
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 2: Wow.

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: And she I was with Oscar and she was like,

9
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: you enjoy that chicken?

10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: Did you enjoy it?

11
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it? Again, It's hard to get my kids

12
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: that eat dinner.

13
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 3: So welcome back to doting dads.

14
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: I am Maddie, Jake and I'm Ash and this is

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: a podcast all about parenting.

16
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: It is the good, it is bad, and the relatable.

17
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: And we don't give advice because you're not very smart.

18
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 2: Agreed as we have, we have a lot, a lot

19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 2: to get through in this episode if we can just

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:16,639
Speaker 2: very quickly. Before we started recording, Jess, producer was asking

21
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: a question of a certain water bottle that belonged to

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 2: her was left here at the household. I believe Laura

23
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 2: has thrown it out.

24
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: Let's just collectively blame her.

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 2: I think she's just she's she's so trigger happy to

26
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: throw anything out like canthor is dirty. She's like, put

27
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: it in the bin, check it out, and Jess, I

28
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: think Laura has thrown it out. But there's only one

29
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 2: way to confirm this. I think we should just give

30
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 2: Laura a really quick call. She's not going to.

31
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: Pick up no, I can feel it.

32
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: Laura. Hello, sound you sound different?

33
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: I'm in Zara.

34
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: Oh what are you getting?

35
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 4: Nothing? I'm going to walk out of here though, hold on?

36
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: Sorry about that being very busy question. Cast your mind

37
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: back to a couple of weeks ago.

38
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 4: Oh, here we go.

39
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 2: We were cleaning out the house. There was a specific

40
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: type of water bottle that was here on the kitchen bench.

41
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: I think it was in like the drainage tray. It

42
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:22,559
Speaker 2: was an age.

43
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 4: Water bottle that was in the drainage tree.

44
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 2: It was a g one water bottle. I think it

45
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: was glass, do you yeah?

46
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 4: I vaguely remember it.

47
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: What did we do with that?

48
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 4: I think you threw it that because it had like

49
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 4: green stuff in it?

50
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: Ah you who?

51
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 5: So?

52
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: Who threw it out?

53
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 4: Ma? Wow? Okay, all right, didn't you say? Didn't you say?

54
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 4: What is this? Why is this rotting?

55
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: And I was like, I've got nightety what it is,

56
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: and then you're like, throw it away.

57
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 4: Wow is the fingering bottle?

58
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 2: I think so it was Jess's oh.

59
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 4: Ship, you guys need to buy just in your drink bottle.

60
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: We're right, we're getting on it.

61
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: I been there at the junction, man, don't group me

62
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: in with you.

63
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: Guys, green.

00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 2: Green it was vitamins. It was it had been.

65
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 4: Less in the covered for a really long time, and that.

66
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 1: Is like made a juice or something in it.

67
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 4: Jess.

68
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: I really I appreciate your endeavor to be healthy, and

69
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry that we uh that we yeah, well,

70
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: I actually don't.

71
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 4: We didn't do anything that MAT's right away. I'm very sorry.

72
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: I think everyone was like, what the fuck is this

73
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: doing here?

74
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: Everyone was commused. I don't know who it was. We

75
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 4: also found like three days after your record day. It

76
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 4: wasn't like it was on the record day. We were like,

77
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: where'd this come from?

78
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: Can we back up a little bit there, Laura, you

79
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: said you guys need to buy Jess and new water bottle.

80
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: I don't appreciate being grouped into this debarcle because I

81
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't do something so absurd.

82
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: That house is like your podcasting studio. I feel like

83
00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 4: you can, you can look.

84
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: If that's the case, I would like some sort of ownership.

85
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: I would like a percentage of the house. Please hang on, Laura,

86
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: I would say, Laura.

87
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 5: That that was very quick to blame you, like, oh,

88
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 5: I have no doubt.

89
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 2: I think you were the one that was like, we

90
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: knew this house was so clited, we need to get

91
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: rid of stuff now. And then you were like, get

92
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: rid of it, put it in the bin. And I

93
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: was like, well, Laura, just slow down for a second, relax,

94
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 2: and you're like, too late, it's fucking gone.

95
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 1: Wow.

96
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 4: I am. I am the clean out queen. I like

97
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 4: to drinking the way, but I'm not not the culprit. No, No,

98
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 4: I didn't do that.

99
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, don't forget to buy yourself a phone cover

100
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 2: when you're at the junction.

101
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why I'm going to do. I only dropped

102
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 4: on the ground. Now I'm scratching that down.

103
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: Okay. I love you.

104
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: Wow, I don't know who to believe around to you go,

105
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: why do wives do this? Why do they just throw

106
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: things out for the sake of a there's two things

107
00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: that irritate.

108
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: What does she do?

109
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: She throws things out? Random? No. Three things. We could

110
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: be here all day. We just add to it. Okay.

111
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: First of all, she'll just throw things out. They just

112
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: think it's Clark. It's in my way in the bin,

113
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, there's no. I don't even own

114
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: a wall anymore.

115
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 5: Do you know why?

116
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: Because it's probably at the tip. I don't think about

117
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: the repercussions of that. Hence the water book. That's one two.

118
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: For some reason. If something is nearly empty and we

119
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: have a new one, finish it off. I have two

120
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: jars of veedgie might rock and rolling around my house

121
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: at the moment, and I'm like, which one do I use?

122
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to get in trouble except gin.

123
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: Okay, in April's defense, we've got about three little jars

124
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 2: of honey at the moment, a little like squeezy tub things,

125
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: because they're really annoying. Once they're empty, there's a little

126
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: bit left. You can't get it out. You gotta wash

127
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 2: it out with hot water. Then it's just it's the admin.

128
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, Honey's maybe the because it's sticky. It's very

129
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: stick but you can scrape the inside of veggimi.

130
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Laura, it's actually me.

131
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: Does this oh, go on.

132
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 2: Sometimes like if it's butter and I finished the butter,

133
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, just put it back in the fridge

134
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 2: and I'll deal with that later.

135
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: It's like a toilet paper roller is hanging like one

136
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: bit over the top of the well. I didn't finish it.

137
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: And the third thing that she does do which I

138
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: know other people do this, Actually there's four, but I'm

139
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: not going to go on. Actually I might just group

140
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: this into one.

141
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 2: Please.

142
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: It's rearranging the house all things, especially in the kitchen.

143
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: It's very kitchen related and not telling me.

144
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 2: So.

145
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: You know how when you're making something to eat for you,

146
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: the kids or whatever, muscle memory takes you to the

147
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: covert or drawer where that thing is. As soon as

148
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: something's moved without you knowing. Your muscle memory is like,

149
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: hang on a.

150
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 2: Minute, dude, that the bin bin's move. Bin's mood was there.

151
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: I used to be in the middle of the room.

152
00:06:58,880 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 2: Now it's in the corner.

153
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: I put amusedly by wrapper on the floor the other

154
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: day here because I was like, this is.

155
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: Laura was like, it's just a fucking eyesaw, isn't it.

156
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: And I think it's a white it's a white bin.

157
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: You lucky it's still out in public, because this is

158
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: the other thing that she would do when she's moving

159
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: things around, she puts things in the cupboard, like the toaster. Yeah,

160
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: where's the toaster gone?

161
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: If it's being used on a daily basis, I think

162
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: it warrants being left out on the bench.

163
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: It's earned, it's earned its place of real estate on

164
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: the bench, I think, especially if it's on a piece

165
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: of bench I'm not going to use anyway.

166
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: It's it's it's more work to put it away. And

167
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 2: also there's bloody crumbs everywhere.

168
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: And you put crumbs from the bench to the floor

169
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: to the cupboard, so you're really dirty in three areas

170
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: of your house instead of the one spot which you

171
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: can lift it, wipe, put it back down. And it's

172
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: a good looking toaster. It's a brevel you get, you get,

173
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: you want to show it up.

174
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 2: It's a sand colored toaster.

175
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: I want to show my appliances off, Thank you much.

176
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 2: It doesn't get any better than that. I mean, it

177
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: was a smag sure maybe that it could stay, but Brebell,

178
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: surely it's up there second tier.

179
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want people to walk in my house and go, oh,

180
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: you got a Berebel, I got the same and you're like,

181
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: it's paying off.

182
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 2: It matches the kettle.

183
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: See, we get it. Yeah, what is it about that

184
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: they don't get? I don't live in a museum, but

185
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: we love our wives so much, very much.

186
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. I wouldn't want it any other way. I have

187
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: to be very very careful, very careful not to criticize

188
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: the lawyer right now, because she's taken the brunt of

189
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,600

Speaker 2: one grandparents allowed her child.

215
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, that's just causing division within families. Yeah.

216
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 2: I was like, surely they can allow, especially.

217
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: All four of them alive. Then what do you do?

218
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: We didn't have any grandparents available today, yes, so we

219
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: didn't want Marley to be there empty handed, or a

220
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: couple of kids there with no one at their desk.

221
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: I'm always I.

222
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 2: Was like, I wanted to go over and be like

223
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: it's okay.

224
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: I know I did that fade interest like a little kids.

225
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 2: There, but I went as her favorite person. And then

226
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 2: Laura Bloody came along as well, and I was like.

227
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: So then she's like, give the badge to her. Now,

228
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: you're my special kind of person.

229
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 2: But it was a very exciting morning, about forty five

230
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 2: minutes just doing a couple of little drawings, A bit

231
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 2: of reading made the badge. I don't want to attack

232
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 2: the older generation here.

233
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: ASH don't want to attack them, but I will go

234
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: for it.

235
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: I was as I was coloring in I was doing

236
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: a drawing with Miley, was sitting at her desk, and

237
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 2: I would pay attention to some of the other grandparents there,

238
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: in particular the grand pas, the older males, and watch

239
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 2: them trying to interact.

240
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: It's really awkward with a young child. He's like, all right, Timmy,

241
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: what did you want to draw?

242
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 2: And Timmy's like, we can draw pictures and he's like okay,

243
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 2: and then he's like, on his phone.

244
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: Why don't you draw a picture from the First World War.

245
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: I'd like to feel some nostalgia.

246
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 2: I have no idea how to interact with the kids.

247
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: They don't. My dad's getting better, like I know, like

248
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: when I first had kids and he was he wasn't

249
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: very hands on, but like he's looked after them on

250
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: his own, like he spent the night, well, you know,

251
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: babysat for us a couple of times on his own

252
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: without Mum. Strategically, Mom's like he needs to get better

253
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: at this, and now he's just flying loves it. So

254
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 1: it is hard for them. But like once they realized

255
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: they if they just get on their level.

256
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, these grandparents were not there anywhere. Yeah, they were

257
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: like it was level twelve. These kids are on ground level. Yeah,

258
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 2: there was there was a massive disconnect and well he's there,

259
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 2: like Dad, I'm like not right now, I'm watching the grandparents.

260
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: Did you get the old g you're a young grandfather?

261
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 4: Yeah?

262
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 2: I had to pretend like.

263
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 1: I was old. I was like, hello, Molly, am.

264
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 2: I old ash. Ellie couldn't be there on Grandparents' Day

265
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: because because she's back in hospital and she's doing good.

266
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 2: She's doing good, but she just can't keep any weight on.

267
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 1: She's still have They got to the back problem.

268
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: Finally, finally it's called seeded Iff, seed Iff Coostril. This

269
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: where do they come up with the name? I know

270
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 2: he told me the name of the phone, and I

271
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 2: was like, can you say that one more time slower?

272
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 2: Can you spell it out for me?

273
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: People struggle to name their kids. How are people out

274
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: there naming fucking infections?

275
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 2: And ship shortened to seed iff.

276
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: And then they shorten what's the point, just make it

277
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: seed iff.

278
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 2: But but Thursday we were together, weren't we know we.

279
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:37,000

Speaker 2: nine kilos, there's not much.

283
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: And she's not a big person to begin with.

284
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: Bag of bones. And I'm going to say this name wrong.

285
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: What a real insensitive way to put that.

286
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's a I know, sorry Ellie, but a gashtrom ontrologist,

Speaker 1: friend of mine they there wider family have a like

470
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: a shack okay, at a place called Swan Bay. It's

471
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: like a row of houses on on a bay obviously,

472
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: but it's not like it's not bustling, if that makes sense.

473
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: It's quite small, quiet north of Sydney North, a couple

474
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: of hours north, and it is quite an old house.

475
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's like maybe a half hour past a

476
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: little bit more. And the house is really old, like

477
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: it's been passed down pretty much. There's been minor tweaks

478
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: to it, but it's it's got the authentic authenticity of

479
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: an old house. Okay, it's like that, like old carpet old.

480
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: It's probably a spestos whatever on land sheds in the

481
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: back like a proper old slight lean. Yeah. If it

482
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: gets windy, it runs on the front like not that bad,

483
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 1: not that so anyway, I took the family. My family

484
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: had been there before, but when they were much younger.

485
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: Macy probably was in the picture, and Oscar was quite young,

486
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: so none the wiser, some would say, So I've taken

487
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: them to this house, and we've got there. We got

488
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: there first, and I've gone and I've unlocked the house,

489
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: and my kids get out of the car and the

490
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: first thought is what's this place? And I was like,

491
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: I didn't really preface that it's not going to be

492
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: quite as modern as they used to.

493
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 2: Now they've got the new apartment.

494
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 4: I know.

495
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: And you know what it reminded me of. And I'll

496
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: tell you why it reminded me of. This is, you

497
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 1: know the movie Grown Ups by Adam Sandler, and he's

498
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 1: so he's quite he's like a celebrity in this in

499
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: this movie, and his kids are used to a certain

500
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: type of lifestyle, but they go on holiday to a

501
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: lake house, which is nowhere near the same lifestyle as that.

502
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: For example, they cut from a silver cloth.

503
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: Is that say thank you? Yep?

504
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: I think that's right. I would say this. But for example,

505
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: the TV has a big box on the back of it.

506
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: Why is it so fat form? Yeah? And they're why

507
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: does it not have Netflix? Where's YouTube? Why is there

508
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 1: no Wi Fi? Where's the dishwasher? It's coming now? Literally,

509
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: it's like, can we just order something to eat? I'm like,

510
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 1: who the fuck are these kids?

511
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: Where are the hoverboards?

512
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: Yeah? Exactly right, And they're like, I'm like, the kitchen

513
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 1: is like original kitchen, there's no dishwasher. Who's going to

514
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: wash the dishes. It's like me relaxed, CID, I'm doing it.

515
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:36,719
Speaker 2: It's per usual.

516
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like so all of the modern amenities that they're

517
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: used to, this house has none of them, right, And

518
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,479
Speaker 1: it was like, ekon, no way, They've just installed ceiling vans.

519
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 1: That was the entertainment of the day. The kids were

520
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,159
Speaker 1: just like watching the ceiling fan.

521
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 2: Right.

522
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: But the whole vibe of the place is to get

523
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: away from the model the man. That's the whole charm

524
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: of it.

525
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,959
Speaker 2: But it takes I guess a little while to TRANSI

526
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 2: into a new environment for the kids.

527
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was like I was like, are you

528
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 1: fucking guys for real? Like, but then I thought, ah,

529
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: this is probably my fault that they're like this, because,

530
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: for example, we have a robot vacuum and my kids

531
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: were like, wow, that's been nice. It was free. It

532
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: was like the rice bubbles dry rice bubbles thank god,

533
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: ended up on the old disgusting carpet in this house

534
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: and Oscar was like, oh, the rabot will get it.

535
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,640
Speaker 1: I was like, fuck at hell. And every five minutes

536
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: I would come back to one of the kids trying

537
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 1: to work out why the TV didn't have Netflix and

538
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: I kept saying, we're not here for this. There's yards

539
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: out the back, beauty.

540
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 4: Yeah.

541
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: That like like the difference is right. So the guy

542
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: who owns the hat or the family who owns the house,

543
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: their kid gets there and he's like, come on, Oscar,

544
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: let's go straight out to the bay looking for crabs.

545
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: He knows what's up. He knows what's happening, and it's

546
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: like he's like, okay. So for example, sometimes you know

547
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 1: when you go to a salt water body of salt

548
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: water and it can be the salt can make your

549
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: skin itchy. Ah Jesus, yeah, it's that is.

550
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 2: Then it's a night.

551
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 1: It was like the end of the world when Oscar

552
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: realizes made him itchy.

553
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 2: And also it's not it's like every third, like time

554
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 2: they're in the salt water makes him ITCHI not every time,

555
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 2: So it's like such a roll of the dice. I'm like, well,

556
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: they'd be itchy and then mylet's like, yeah, it's attacking me.

557
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it was like with Oscar. He just

558
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: comes running like I thought something was really wrong, dipped

559
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: in acid. Yeah, and he's like I was like, what's wrong.

560
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 1: But it's like I'm it was shut. I was like

561
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:53,239
Speaker 1: getting the shower robots ye has helped me. I was like,

562
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: I was like, go have a shower, like you have

563
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:56,959
Speaker 1: to wait for the hot water to come on there.

564
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, what a shower. I'm like, it'll stop,

565
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: it's not what anything to do with water. I'm like,

566
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: oh my.

00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,040

00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 2: You think that The other parents were looking at you

572
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 2: being like.

00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: Oh god, I think we got it all out of

00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: the way before everyone got.

Speaker 2: There the first couple hours.

Speaker 1: It was in the first couple of minutes.

Speaker 2: It was like did he come good by the end?

578
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, Once they got used to that there's no modern

00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: amenities in this house.

00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:37,880

00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: me not the special person.

602
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 2: But and that explains your post in the Facebook group

603
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 2: were all.

604
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 1: Like yeah, I wanted to and I did, and I

605
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: mean I'll read something them out next week in housekeeping.

606
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: But it was it just gave the IRG like they

607
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: unappreciate what they've got and they were like so disappointed.

608
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:56,959
Speaker 1: It was like, they're going because that's the thing. They

609
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: were like so excited to go on holidays, right, but

610
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: when they got there they felt like it was more

611
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: of a concentration camp than a holiday anyway. But I

612
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: spent the whole time just being like be more appreciative

613
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: and all this sort of shit. But then we get

614
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: home and it's like back to the normal, back to

615
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: the norm pretty much where it's like the robots, oh

Speaker 1: How's the rest of your recovery going?

673
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 4: Well? It was going really well, so I posted surgery.

674
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 5: It was a really big success, you know, I recovered

675
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 5: really well, and then I was you know, and you

676
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 5: tube out each day and you drain it each day,

677
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 5: and I was in real good spirits and then I

678
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 5: left Tostl after ten days, which was absurd, Like the

679
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 5: surgeon was so stoked with ours recovering and he said

680
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 5: he was happy for me to cover from home. So

681
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 5: it was going really well into this little hiccup. So

682
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 5: hoping this is just a just a little outline.

683
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 4: The timing of it.

684
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 5: Is pretty shit because it's my bloody birthday today actually,

Speaker 5: I've never had birthday breakfast jelly, so I enjoyed that,

691
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 5: and then a minute later the nurse came in and

692
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:45,520

Speaker 2: you want to jump into a socials, give a message

782
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 2: of support because he he loves it and it helps

783
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 2: so much. We really appreciate it.

784
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 4: Ash.

785
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,839
Speaker 2: There's a very quick story. I know you've been you've

786
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 2: been itching to tell a story about about Macy and

787
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: a seal.

788
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 1: Well, now I feel like it's not going to be

789
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 1: that good.

790
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 2: No, sorry, I've just said and you've told us that

791
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 2: it's one of the best stories. We often complain about parenting, Okay,

792
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 2: when I say often every episode, every episode, but it's

793
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 2: also important Ash to say at times that we do

794
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:33,439
Speaker 2: love this job.

795
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, the dad job or the podcast job.

796
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 2: The dad job. Of course we love the podcast. Ever,

797
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 2: everyone knows we never complained about the podcast.

798
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 1: I always do when you're not around.

799
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 2: Sometimes this episode I'm like, Ash, is a nightmare, Like,

800
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 2: don't listen to that one.

801
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: That's not good.

802
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: But something happened to me recently that I was like, obviously,

803
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 2: it's hard work, it's exhausting, it's relentless, it's frustrating at times,

804
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,319
Speaker 2: but then these are moments they just completely remove all

805
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 2: of that frustration and also like numb the frustration that's

806
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:11,720
Speaker 2: to come. So at the moment. Marley loves a little note.

807
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 2: I make her lunch in the morning and in her

808
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 2: lunch box, her little like cooler bag. All write a

809
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 2: note and I'll put it in there. Sometimes are really

810
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 2: dumb notes. For example, why can't eggs tell each other jokes?

811
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 2: Because I crack each other.

812
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: Up very good.

813
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 2: She's like, I didn't get that one, and I'll try

814
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 2: another one. I was like, I read a book about glue.

815
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 2: I couldn't put it down.

816
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 1: Okay, So he just CHATJP hered a bunch of se

817
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: it I like it. I do like her and she

818
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,399
Speaker 1: doesn't know that getting them.

819
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, she doesn't know that. And then I wrote her

820
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 2: a nice letter And how did that go? It went

821
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 2: really well?

822
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: No, what did it say? We got it here?

823
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 2: I said, dear Marley, this is your dad writing this.

00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 2: my daughter.

828
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,319

837
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

838
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: Okay? All right two Dad, Me four. Dad. This is

839
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,120

Speaker 1: also well written from happens to be That is wild.

845
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, sometimes as hard as parenting is, when you

846
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 2: get little moments.

847
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, everything is forgotten and it makes it all worthwhile.

848
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: There is something that your children can give you that

849
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: nothing else in the world can. And that's exactly what

850
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. It's things like that that people that

851
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 1: don't have kids will never understand. That's what I was saying.

852
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: So now I feel like I can't tell you my story.

853
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: You try to beef me up on the story and

854
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: then you get your dish out that sort of stuff.

855
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 2: So when I get that note, I'm like, oh, that's

856
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: beautiful spelling.

857
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 1: We're going to be like spelling mistake. She put a

858
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: seat in that making anyway, we can come back to

859
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: my story in other times, I don't feel it's fitting

860
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: for that.

861
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,359
Speaker 3: Sorry, no, don't know.

862
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: No, I like that much better. That's we can. There's

863
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: no rush on that one. Shall we go into life?

864
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: Tell me loud, tell me little love.

865
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 2: I was at the Halloween party with a foot incident

866
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 2: with Laura.

867
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, and the horrific foot that is Laura.

868
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,439
Speaker 1: I love you.

869
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 2: Oh god, she has beautiful feet. We're at the party

870
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 2: and a couple of parents there were like, oh, what

871
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 2: do you do? And I said, I do a podcast.

872
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 2: My bad just went off. I said, oh, I do

873
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,320
Speaker 2: a podcast and like what do you talk about? And

874
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 2: I'd say, oh, you know, sometimes we talk about parenting lies.

875
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 2: And then one parent was like, oh, she had a

876
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 2: couple of wines and she's like yes, She's.

877
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: Like, I've got to lie.

878
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 2: I can tell you yes, and she was like oh,

879
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 2: it's a bit of a bad one. And I was like, no,

880
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 2: we'd never judge, you know, we will, but.

881
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 1: Maybe on occasion I will.

882
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 2: And she goes, oh, look, you know the story Gruffalo yep.

883
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 2: And I was like yeah, yeh, I know. And she goes, well, look,

884
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 2: my daughter's really afraid of the Gruffalo and I was

885
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 2: like I get that, you know, it's scary, scary, scary character.

886
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 2: And she's like, God, sometimes when you know like she's

887
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 2: being a bit naughty. I pretend like the Gruffalo's coming

888
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 2: and if there's any kind of noise because in an

889
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 2: apartment complex, she's like, that's the gruffalo.

890
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 1: Oh that'll get if you're not a slip, grufflo will come.

891
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: It's the same as saying like, you're not going to

892
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: get anything for Christmas?

893
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 2: Right, She's like, is that causing any long term PTSD?

894
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: The good thing about that is you'll never know until

895
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: later on.

896
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,479
Speaker 2: Here of being abducted by a huge grizzly animal that's

897
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 2: on par with a.

898
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: Bear, unless she gets a grizzly kink that don't makes sense,

899
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: So you won't know it's caused any trauma.

900
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 2: And she'll even go as far as that. She'll say

901
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 2: that she'll go, let me go out and check, and

902
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 2: she's like the hang on, wait there, and she's like, oh,

903
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,439
Speaker 2: she comes, MAK and he's like, quick, go to sleep

904
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: because the gufflo is here and if you're awake, we'll

905
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 2: get you.

906
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 1: Oh that's good. That's good. So make them scared of something.

907
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 2: And she's petrified of the petrified.

908
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 1: And I think that's better than like, I think that's

909
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: better Like that like the other characters in the world,

910
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: like Santa and the Easter Bunny. We just let them in,

911
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 1: Like at least with the Gruffler, you'd be like, oh,

912
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 1: try and keep them out for as long as possible.

913
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 3: Get the broomstick.

914
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that's good.

915
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 2: She came out and saw us one time and she

916
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 2: was like, gosh, that was a tough battle. They didn't have.

917
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: She just walks in like limps in. That's good. I

918
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: like it. With the fake arm anything, the scary child,

919
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 1: I'm all about well said. I've got one from a

920
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 1: listener here as well, from Danny L. I've caught my

921
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: son swearing sneakily, a softly whispered fuck here and chat

922
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: there like that. I've generally told him that Santa has

923
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,720
Speaker 1: a list in keeps telling you of how many times

924
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 1: kids swear. His face was very worried. I like, I

925
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 1: was like, whispering it. Yeah, he could just be walking

926
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: around down fuck this fuck bad like my kids. But

927
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: that's my fault.

928
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 5: Ship.

929
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, would you say nothing. I was on the phone

930
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 1: to someone in my car. Also, the best place to

931
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:21,719
Speaker 1: take a phone calls in your car. I just can't

932
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,879
Speaker 1: say it. And the guy that was on the other

933
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 1: line was very potty mouthed, very bad and my kid

934
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 1: is so used to that now that we got out

935
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: of the car and I was like, oh, gee, said

00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: doesn't even take any notice anymore. It's perfect. It's worked

950
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 1: a treat. Macy, on the other hand, that's another week

953
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: we'll help the listeners. You never know, let me set

954
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,760
Speaker 1: the scene please. I'm at the park with Macy's, Macey

955
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:33,800
Speaker 1: and I. It's a week day. I have her on Thursdays.

956
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,760
Speaker 1: Macy's my nearly four year old. Two more weeks before

957
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: and immunizations. April wrote that down.

958
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 2: The fucking do the name registry thing for Poppy.

959
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 1: She's still no named got eight weeks, so we're still

960
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: stuck with Poppy. Good because I don't want to do that,

961
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: just to look at the paperwork and I'm like, I

962
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: don't give shit about her name. I just don't want

963
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 1: to do that. Jim last, No, you're safe if thank god.

964
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,479
Speaker 1: So I'm in the park with Macy's. It's a pretty

965
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: quiet day because other kids are a kin do you whatever,

966
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 1: bah blah. Anyway, it's a park with a fence around it.

967
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 1: Safe first, cool to be cautious. So I'm pushing MACI

968
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: on the swing and the gate is right there and

969
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 1: this car backs up to the grass and the kid,

970
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: the toddler, gets out of the car, runs across the

971
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: grass to the gate and I'm there, the mum's getting

972
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 1: things out of the car. There's you know, it's a

973
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,839
Speaker 1: safe spot, safe place the kids right there, and I'm

974
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: looking at this kid who's looking at me thinking open

975
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: the fucking gate, come on, and I'm like it yeah, yeah.

976
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 1: And my question is.

977
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 2: To the listener, if they didn't kids look at us

978
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 2: like we're just servants.

979
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: Most kids do. Yeah. So my question to the listener

980
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: is do I open the gate or do I ignore

981
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 1: the child and wait for the parent to come over

982
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: and open the gate and let them in. The reason

983
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: why I asked this is because I felt bad, because

984
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 1: I'm quite chivalry is not dead with me. I'll open the.

985
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,240
Speaker 2: Gate, very caring, giving person.

986
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm like, what if I

987
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 1: open the gate and that parent comes over and like, hey,

988
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 1: you've just let my kid in. It's not your kid,

989
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 1: it's not your Yeah. Now he's dead and you.

990
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 2: Know, now what do I do?

991
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:10,879
Speaker 3: Yeah?

992
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 1: So my question is do you open the gate at playgrounds?

993
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 1: Are the children of the children that you don't know

994
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: that you don't.

995
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 2: I think if it's coming inside into the enclosure, it's

996
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 2: totally fine.

997
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it is.

998
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 2: Also depends how much think no far out. It's just

999
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,879
Speaker 2: easy just to ignore other children, isn't it.

1000
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, But then I don't want the parent to come

1001
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,360
Speaker 1: over and be like if say what you can't.

1002
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 2: The parent coming inside has got full hands full of

1003
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 2: different and sometimes those pop locked doors to get into

1004
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 2: the play, they're hard to open. I think if you're

1005
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:56,720
Speaker 2: opening it for the parents, I think, what you definitely

1006
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,240
Speaker 2: don't want to do? We can we can all agree

1007
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:05,280
Speaker 2: that you don't. Because sometimes when leaving daycare and a parent,

1008
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 2: you know, I'll go to the sign out in the

1009
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 2: iPad and then Marley said, Marley's cool. If Lowelan runs

1010
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,359
Speaker 2: to the gate leaving and a parent goes.

1011
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: Here, you go, oh, yeah, it's gone. Yeah. Yeah. If

1012
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,279
Speaker 1: the kid's trying to get out, then no, that's a

1013
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: definite no note. Yeah. But then again I.

1014
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 2: Reckon, But what would how would? The most important consideration

1015
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 2: here is how's makes he going to react? Because if

1016
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 2: I'm pushing Lola on the swing and I back off

1017
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 2: for two pushes, She's like.

1018
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,880
Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa what the pain force?

1019
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: I pushed me?

1020
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:40,919
Speaker 2: A piece of shit?

1021
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: Like push yourself.

1022
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 2: And so if I walk away, if I leave her,

1023
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 2: if I desert Lola on the swing to then care

1024
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 2: for another child, she's gonna lose it.

1025
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. But also I don't want a parent being like, what,

1026
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:52,720
Speaker 1: you're too good to opening game for us?

1027
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 2: I don't think, I don't know.

1028
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 1: You're looking busy.

1029
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 2: If you're If you're on your phone and you look

1030
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,720
Speaker 2: up at the gate and you see it a child

1031
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 2: there in need, and you go back to the phone,

1032
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 2: you're once you're on the swing and you're pushing. That

1033
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 2: removes you from any type of responsibility to help anybody out.

1034
00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:13,399
Speaker 1: But what if they stopped, they parked there, and their

1035
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 1: intention was to not go to the park, but the

1036
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 1: kids ran to the park. There are so many levels

1037
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 1: imagine that. Thanks man, Yeah, we're actually we're already late.

1038
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 2: We're going we're going to a fucking birthday party down

1039
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,320
Speaker 2: the road, and you've just ruined the whole day.

1040
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,480
Speaker 1: Your piece of ship, exactly right. There's so many differences, man,

1041
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: just safe, just pretended in zem If you don't know.

1042
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,759
Speaker 2: The child or the parent, I just I just I mean,

1043
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,240
Speaker 2: even if I know the parent, I kind.

1044
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 1: Of yeah, I probably could have been like, hey, is

1045
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: it okay if they come in, But but then you're

1046
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 1: like you're trying to hit on me?

1047
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 2: What's going on?

1048
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:53,240
Speaker 1: Yeah? Then there's so many I'm married, right, never stopped

1049
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: a man before they think of the outcomes here, Because

1050
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: but what if I did say that and she's like,

1051
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,760
Speaker 1: you were such a polite man and I and then

1052
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I've got a new best friend.

1053
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,799
Speaker 1: There's so many different I just don't know what to do.

1054
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 1: So what I did do is I was like, all right,

1055
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 1: the kids right here, Okay, the mum's getting her stuff out.

1056
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 1: I just poked my tongue out at him. And then

1057
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: I went back to pushing Macie.

1058
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 2: That's weird, that's so I blew him my kiss.

1059
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 1: I was like, what do you moved on with my

1060
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,919
Speaker 1: Lafe just thought it was funny. I entertained that kid as.

1061
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 2: Well, that's a weird. Please, if you're out there, don't

1062
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 2: be poking your tongue out at random kids that you

1063
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 2: don't know you're.

1064
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: Going to come across. Pull the face and him. Why

1065
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,479
Speaker 1: just not a misgender the child? Oh my god, there's

1066
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: so many elements to this question.

1067
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 2: Anyway, it's a minefield out there.

1068
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: It's a minefield. I think you're right with saying we

1069
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 1: can all agree to not let them out. That sounded bad.

1070
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 1: I think that sounded that sounded more captive, just.

1071
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 2: Focus on the swing. When you're pushing your kid on

1072
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 2: the swing, focus on the one and you.

1073
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 1: Can't see them. Just pretend you're blind, Oh god.

1074
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 2: Were walking? Stick with you the cane and then you

1075
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 2: start tapping smart.

1076
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to do that from now on. If you've
