Speaker 1: Byron Bay life.

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 2: So last week's episode was a nooser episode because Boss

15
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: and I did a little Valentine's get away to the

16
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 2: Hindland of NUSA or NUSA Hinderland. I was also a

17
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: little bit of an emotional chat because I talked about

18
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: all things Steve Irwin and why he's my hero. And

19
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: we went to Australia Zoo, which becomes when you go

20
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: there's such a visceral experience because there is you know,

21
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: Steve Irwin's faces everywhere, and so you really feel like

22
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: his spirit is kind of there. So I shared all

23
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: that last week, so it was quite an emotional chat.

24
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 2: So thank you if you beard with me and listened

25
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: to last week's Starry episode.

26
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: This week is a Byron diary, even though.

27
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 2: If you've been following me along socials and whatnot, you

28
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: will know that I have spent this week in Melbourne

29
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: and Sydney. But because this week is has been I'm

30
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 2: trying to talk in past tense even though it's I'm

31
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: recording this on Monday. I'm away all week, and so

32
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get ahead so that you've still got

33
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 2: a Friday episode and I am not trying to do

34
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: a mad dash and record an episode while I'm white,

35
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: and I have done heaps of stuff since we got

36
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: back from New so that it's very Byron esque. So

37
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: this is a Byron diary, even though for half of

38
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 2: this week I will have been in Melbourne and Sydney,

39
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: and then your next week's episode will round all of

40
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: that up.

41
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 1: The reason why I'm going.

42
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 2: To Melbs and SIDS is mainly for podcast recording stuff,

43
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: so because I.

44
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 1: Don't really know anyone in LA.

45
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 2: I know like a couple of people, but I don't

46
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: really have a network, and I'm literally stunning at ground zero.

47
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: I want to make sure that you've still got your

48
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: Monday episode. So I'm really trying to get ahead and

49
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: make sure that I've got content so I fly in March.

50
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm.

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,839
Speaker 2: Making sure you've got episodes like covered for a couple

52
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: of months so that I can start going. Okay, you know,

53
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: I've found some people in LA that I really want

54
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 2: to interview because i just want to keep the caliber

55
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 2: so high.

56
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: I'm so.

57
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: I was going to say proud, it's the wrong word.

58
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 2: I'm so devoted to this podcast and I want to

59
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 2: keep it, you know, very awesome hopefully or like very inspiring.

60
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 2: And so I want that caliber of guests. And that's

61
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: why I travel. I record in real life, and that's

62
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 2: why I'm traveling both to Melbourne and Sydney. I've locked

63
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: in eight interviews to do in the next six days,

64
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: which is really exciting. And then yeah, eight interviews, what else.

65
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 2: I've had a couple of cancelations, so I've kind of

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: like rejuggled and rejigged, and also my therapist is in Melbourne,

67
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 2: so I'm trying to get my therapy done. My hairdress

68
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 2: is in Melbourne. I'm trying to get my hair done.

69
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: I'm trying to squeeze in and acting class as well.

70
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: So I'm trying to just like literally hit the ground

71
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 2: running and run at everything because I won't be back

72
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: in Australia for quite a while and I don't know

73
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 2: when i'll next to be back in Melbourne. Sydney is

74
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: a little bit closer to Buyron, so it's a little

75
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 2: bit easier to sneak to Sydney. So this trip I'm

76
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: going I'm flying out of the Goldie. There was just

77
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: more flight options, so I'm going cool and goatter Melbourne.

78
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,679
Speaker 2: Three days in Melbourne and then three days in Sydney.

79
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's how it work.

80
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how it's gonna go. And I'm literally just

81
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: like cramming as much as I can. I've booked a

82
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 2: juice cleans for Melbourne when I get there, because it's

83
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: my favorite juice cleans in the entire world. They're called

84
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 2: Kharmik and I do what's called the Zen clean, so

85
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 2: it's loads of greens. It's a delicious like almond milk

86
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 2: at night, and then you've got like a lemon and

87
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 2: Cayne pepper drink during the day.

88
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 1: So that's all getting again.

89
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm recalling this on the Monday, so

90
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 2: that'll all arrive at Dad's place tonight. I get in

91
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: tomorrow morning, and then I'm doing a little juice cleans

92
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: when I arrive.

93
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: For a couple of reasons. One, I just love I love.

94
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 2: To give my digestive system a little rest every now

95
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 2: and then. But two, it's actually saves so much time

96
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: when I'm on the run and on the go. And

97
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: one thing that I do when I juice cleanse in

98
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: a scenario like this where I need to be really

99
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: on and working and whatnot, I do keep black coffee

100
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 2: in when I'm like I did a cleanse in Byron

101
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: right before the book launch, and I was at home

102
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: and I could chill and I could nap if I

103
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 2: felt like it, So I did cut caffeine out. But

104
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be doing that this time because

105
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 2: I just want to be able to keep my mind

106
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 2: clear and sharp for interviewing, and I always get caffeine

107
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: withdrawals and headaches.

108
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: If I cut coffee out.

109
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: So anyway, I'll tell you how all of that goes

110
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 2: when I do my diary episode. So next week diary

111
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: episode will be the Melbourne Sydney stuff that you've probably

112
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 2: seen unfold on Insta. But we're here to talk about

113
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: Byron Rue. So okay, Byron, I just counted. I've been

114
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 2: doing a pilates Peaches Pilarates challenge. Peaches is where I

115
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 2: do pilats. That just reminded me, as I said, I

116
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: haven't responded to Peach seat. I've got a respond to

117
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 2: Peach's email. Anyway, I figured today I've done it's a

118
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 2: twenty eight day challenge, I think, or four week challenge.

119
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 2: I've done eighteen classes so far. But I'm obviously gonna

120
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 2: be away for a week, so I'm gonna I did

121
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: a double today and a double yesterday to kind of

122
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 2: like jack my numbers up to cover me for while

123
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: I'm away.

124
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: How full on does that sound when I say doubles.

125
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 2: I'm doing a pilates class and a yoga class because

126
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: they do offer yogs as well there.

127
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: So that's been a lot of fun.

128
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: It's just been nice to kind of like move and

129
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 2: like hold myself accountable and if I don't really feel

130
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: like it, go and do it anyway, because I want to,

131
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: like tick my name off. I'm definitely a list and

132
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: a tick kind of person. Like I feel so good

133
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 2: when you know when you do the little dashes, it's

134
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 2: like one, two, three, four, and then the fifth one

135
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 2: means you get to draw a diagonal line across the

136
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 2: little lines. Oh, that excites me so much. I also

137
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: had a really cool wellness experience last week the Lovely

138
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: gang At Tribe, which is actually next door to Peach.

139
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: They have infrared saunas but they've just launched their treatments

140
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: and they invited me into experience once. So I had

141
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: dry body brushing. Oh my goodness. I have only ever

142
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 2: done this once in my life before, and it was

143
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: part of a massage treatment. I was like, why am

144
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: I not dry body brushing? So that was incredible. I

145
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 2: don't know if you've had that, befod it's so nice,

146
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 2: like your skin kind of tingles and it's warm, but

147
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: you can tell it. It feels like it's very detoxifying.

148
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 2: And I'm presuming it stimulates lymph and all that kind

149
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: of thing. I haven't looked it up, but I'm sure

150
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: there'll be so many health benefits of dry body brushing,

151
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: and I'm sure people listening to it going, well, we've

152
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: been dry body brushing forever and you're just really behind

153
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: the times, which I am. And then that became a massage.

154
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: Then from the massage, you walk into the sauna and

155
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: you drink like a little preiodic drink as well. So

156
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: that was amazing. That was a lot of fun. And

157
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 2: that's yeah, that's just launched at Tribe. So if you environ,

158
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,960

160
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: of thing. So nice. I've had a few food experiences.

161
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: So the Bosso and I on SAT today we figured

162
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 2: out that before I go to La, we're not going

163
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 2: to have that many dates, and so we decided we

164
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: did our Bangalow Farmer's market shop and he was like,

165
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 2: let's just go to Woods and so I got an

166
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 2: oat laste Boss got ice matcher on oat so good,

167
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 2: and then he got a gluten free miso cheesecake with

168
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 2: passion fruit pulp on top. It was insane. And I

169
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 2: obviously got the banana bread because it's the best. It's

170
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,599
Speaker 2: vegan and it's gluten free.

171
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 1: That was really nice.

172
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: And actually the day before that, we caught up with

173
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 2: Monday's podcast guests. So theF that you would have heard

174
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 2: on Monday is with the author and TV presenter Luke Hines.

175
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: I was gonna says he a health coach.

176
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 2: No, he's more of like an author PT health nerd,

177
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 2: and he hosts that wellness show as well. And so

178
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: we caught up with him just to talk about the

179
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: pod because we recorded it quite a long time ago,

180
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 2: like literally a week after I got back from America,

181
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: so that'd be like four months ago now. So I

182
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: just kind of like walked him through what happens when

183
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 2: pod comes out. I'm like, it comes out at like

184
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: seven am in the morning on Mondays. And so we

185
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,559
Speaker 2: had a yummy meal there again at Woods. Matt he

186
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 2: always gets the green eggs and ham. He loves it.

187
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 2: He got note last day, I got a warm magic matcher,

188
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: and I think that that's got missed on mushroom not

189
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 2: magic mushrooms, but like mushrooms for brain health and focus

190
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: and all of that kind of thing in it.

191
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: And then I.

192
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 2: Got a beauty bowl which was like this, like it

193
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 2: had like a whipped collagen coconut yogurt, black sticky rice.

194
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: It had the housemade granola, It had a papaya puree.

195
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 1: It was really yummy.

196
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 2: Luke got the same, and he kind of mixed all

197
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: his togetherhereas I was taking little bits of each. The

198
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 2: granola was probably my babe, and the pure really really yummy,

199
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 2: lots of like flavors and yum, kind of like aliments

200
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: and crunch and textra and what on. Of course, it's

201
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 2: covered in like delicious flowers, so it looks gorge very

202
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 2: good for the gramos.

203
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: So that's called the beauty bowl.

204
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 2: And I think they call it the beauty bowl because

205
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: they've whipped some collagen through the coconut, I think. But

206
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 2: very pretty, and that's kind of quite new on the menu.

207
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: It comes out with.

208
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: All seasonal fruit like plums and mango. Really yummy, really satisfying,

209
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 2: especially if you're like me and you love something sweety.

210
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 2: You don't want to feel guilty after, so it doesn't

211
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 2: feel too treaty. It feels very whole foody. And then

212
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 2: Boss and I went to a coffee shop in Ballina

213
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 2: called Old Quarter. Did I bring my notes on? My

214
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 2: notes are over there, but I can remember it all anyway.

215
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 2: So Old are an amazing delicious local Ballana coffee roastery

216
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: and they've got a cafe as well, and they stock

217
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: some of our favorite local cafes, like the Little General

218
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: in Uriba. You know, they have just bought out a

219
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 2: coffee where they're raising ten thousand dollars to build a

220
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 2: new water water well where that farm, that coffee farm

221
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: is based. And it works out they're giving ten percent

222
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: of every single sale to raising that ten thousand dollars

223
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 2: of that brand of coffee bean.

224
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: So cool, and.

225
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure, like from what I'm aware of, that

226
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 2: Old Quarter is all about that, and it's all about

227
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 2: giving back to the community and having a really like

228
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,440

234
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 2: I have booked myself a I've got a real well

235
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 2: inness stay today, like literally, because I knew I was

236
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 2: going to be on the road and flying and sleeping

237
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: in like different beds and feeling a bit like meh,

238
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: not med but you know, like out of sorts the

239
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: next week or so. So this morning I did a

240
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: double class at Peaches. I did pallates and yoga, and

241
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 2: then I've got a massage at two pm at Comma.

242
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 2: So Comma's a beautiful massage place in the industrial area

243
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 2: at Byron Bay. And if you like, I've always asked

244
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: for this girl called Montana because she does really strong

245
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 2: and I ask for the deeper fibers. That's the type

246
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: of massage I guess it's just like really super medicinal

247
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 2: and strong. And then she's away today, so that I've

248
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 2: got a girl called Natalia, I think. So hopefully they've

249
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 2: said we've deliberately given you in Natalia because you like strong.

250
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 2: So I was like, great, that sounds perfect. So I've

251
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 2: got that. And then Boss and I are doing a

252
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: joint couples sauna and icepath also in the industrial estate

253
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: at Nimbusco, and I've been writing some articles for them,

254
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 2: so they said, oh, we'll pay you in saunas and

255
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 2: ice baths, and I said, only if I can bring

256
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 2: my boyfriend. And so that's that's what we've got on

257
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: for the r boat.

258
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: Oh I can hear a big truck. I'm sure you

00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: can hear that too. And my phone's ringing.

Speaker 2: and I think it's going to be amazing. But I've

311
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 2: asked like three different mates to come with me to

312
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 2: this premiere and nobody can come, and I'm like, shiver

313
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 2: me timbers, and I don't have bossed with me in

314
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 2: Sydney either, so I'm really hoping I can get a

315
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 2: mate to come with me because I'm so excited to

316
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 2: support Candas, but also like I really really want to

317
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 2: see the show, Like I think it's going to be

318
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: absolutely amazing, shot in Australia, an Australian story, and yeah,

319
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 2: if you don't know Candae Fox. She's an amazing, amazing

320
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 2: crime writer. Crime fiction.

321
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: Hope, I'm saying that right. I'm a writer, and I.

322
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: Get so messed up with saying mixed up with saying

323
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 2: fiction versus nonfiction. So nonfiction is like factual and new

324
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 2: learn something like fearlessly failing the book would be nonfiction.

325
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: Correct. I know I'm talking to myself right now, whereas.

326
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: Fiction is like a beautiful story and you can escape

327
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 2: into that world, but it's not necessarily real. So Candas

328
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 2: is a crime fiction author.

329
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: Oh we got there, Lola.

330
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: So yes, I really want to go to that, but

331
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: I'm in a conundrum because I don't know many people

332
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 2: in Sydney anymore, and.

333
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: I can't get anyone to go with me.

334
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 2: So I'm hoping by the time this pod comes out,

335
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: I've found a mate to come with me to this

336
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 2: premiere because I really want to go and support Candace. Also,

337
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 2: I love getting frocked up. Anyone that knows me knows

338
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 2: that's one of my passions.

339
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's me. That's that's where we are in life.

340
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 2: I haven't booked my flight out to Los Angeles yet,

341
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 2: even though I'm going in less than three weeks. Just

342
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 2: because I'm waiting to find out if I have a

343
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 2: word a trip in Colorado, which I'm gonna be honest

344
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: with you, I don't think it's gonna I think i'd

345
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 2: know by now if that was happening. So it looks

346
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 2: like I'll go straight into Los Angeles and I can't

347
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: move into my rental until the fifth of April, so

348
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 2: I'll probably doing.

349
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: An airbnb somewhere.

350
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,479
Speaker 2: A part of me is like, just go to Hawaii, Lola, Like,

351
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: just go and do a two week holiday holiday in Hawaii.

352
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 2: But I think I'll base myself in Santa Monica. I've

353
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,880
Speaker 2: got some mates there and you know, get to lay

354
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: of the land, get over the jet lag. The jet

355
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 2: lag really ruined me last time, so I'm super aware

356
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: of that, and then yeah, that'll be home for a

357
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 2: fair while. I am in the process of doing all

358
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 2: and this is probably really boring to hear, but a

359
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 2: lot of there's a lot when you've got a green card,

360
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: there's a lot of legal stuff. You've got to do

361
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 2: a lot of tax stuff that is very different to

362
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 2: ATO tax. And so I'm getting all my ducks in

363
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: a row right now so that I'm on top of

364
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: my American tax because it works at different times of

365
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,560
Speaker 2: the year to the Aussie tax. Anyway, I'm sure it's

366
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,959
Speaker 2: a very boring topic for you, but that's what I

367
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 2: am doing behind the scenes. I'm having like early morning

368
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 2: meetings with different accountants in America to start learning American tax,

369
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: which just feels like a whole new language to me.

370
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 2: But I feel grateful that I'm learning it and understanding

371
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: it and whatnot. And so Monday's episode you had Luke Hines.

372
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 2: So he's got a brand new book out called Guilt

373
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 2: Free Snacks, and he's really he's really cool, like he's

374
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: quite quirky, and he is a bit of a like

375
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 2: musical theater nerd and a crime nerd. So it kind

376
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: of like, even though you're expecting probably a health episode,

377
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 2: there are a lot of elements to it. And then

378
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: Monday's episode coming out next Monday is with Shane Dahier.

379
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 2: He's amazing. He's a Melbourne restauranteur is that the right word?

380
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 2: And chef and he's also a TV host on Postcards.

381
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 2: Really passionate guy, like really cool, really passionate, also really

382
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 2: into cars and sneakers and cool watchers. So he's got

383
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 2: like a very cool vibe about him. I want to

384
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 2: say something about Shane and that is I record this

385
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 2: my last trip that I was in Melbourne.

386
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 1: He met me at eight.

387
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 2: Am on Sunday morning because that was the only window

388
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 2: of time that he had before he had a day

389
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 2: with his family. And I was just like, well, you

390
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 2: are amazing. You are such a workerholeague, but a good one,

391
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 2: like he gave it his all.

392
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: He was so engaging.

393
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 2: He was like I intoe quite a lot of people

394
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 2: on that trip, and he really blew me away. So

395
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 2: I'm so excited for you to hear the episode with him.

396
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: He's really open, really honest, really hard working and very

397
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: very very passionate too, and he's built so many successful businesses.

398
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 2: If you're a Melbourneite, you'll know Maha restaurant, but also

399
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 2: I think Biggie Small's is food truck, and then he

400
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 2: set up providor during COVID there was like a food

401
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 2: delivery service to bring your favorite restaurants to your homes

402
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 2: while people were going through COVID. So he's just yeah,

403
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: all about the community and giving back and really yeah,

404
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 2: really really cool human that just I loved chatting too,

405
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 2: So I'm really excited for Monday's app for you and

406
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 2: familiar because I haven't heard it in a little while.

407
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 2: I'm recording the intro for it today again. Has always

408
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: let me know if there's anybody that you'd like to

409
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: hear on the pod, especially now for any one you

410
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 2: follow who's based in America or Los Angeles, because I'll

411
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: be there in about three weeks. Oh my goodness, there's

412
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 2: so much to do before that happens. Kind of stressful.

413
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 2: Oh oh my gosh, I keep forgetting to tell you stuff.

414
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: We're also dog and rabbit sitting at the moment, so

415
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 2: where dogs sitting a little I think it's a kavoodle

416
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 2: called oak or but we call him Oak and rabbit

417
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 2: called Luke. And Luke is so cool, like he'll like

418
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: eat his little palettes out of your hand and let

419
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 2: you hold him, and he's really cool, I would say,

420
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: very very cool little rabbit.

421
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: And I think rabbits have got little personalities. I'm learning.

422
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 2: See we've been doing that for the last four days

423
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 2: and it's been cool. But animals wake up so early, guys,

424
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 2: I'm a bet stored. I should know this, but like

425
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 2: I've been going up literally five am, like walking this pooch,

426
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's a lot of fun and means up

427
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 2: super early for pilates, so I haven't missed a pilates

428
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 2: class since we've had the dog out because I've been

429
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 2: awake so early. But it's been fun and it's just

430
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: really it's cool to hang out with animals, like it

431
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 2: makes you feel really present and it grounds you.

432
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: And it's fun to deal it with.

433
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 2: The bosso too, because we've both got different strengths, Like

434
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 2: I'm morning person, so we tagged him I'm mourning and

435
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 2: then he takes over at nighttime when I'm tired and grumpy.

436
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's us.

437
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 2: That's our Byron update for you. I can't wait to

438
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 2: chat to you next week. I will have had a

439
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 2: little bit of an adventure by the time we chat

440
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 2: next week.

441
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: And big, big, big love Bye.
