<v Speaker 2>Else?

0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 3>When they are stop, I had to stop myself seeing

0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:08.680
<v Speaker 3>that was good media train name.

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Right, your dad Black Christmas. I remember that we had

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 2>black Santa, and my white friends come one day like

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 2>why is the Santa black? And I'm like, what do

0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 2>you mean?

0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.239
<v Speaker 4>I just thought Santa was black. We always have black Sanda.

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 5>We have black Santa at Marowena in Redfern too.

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know Marowena in western Sydney.

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.719
<v Speaker 5>I know there's two marouenas Mount Drewett, Redfern.

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>So we always had black Sanna. It wasn't until I

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.640
<v Speaker 2>had my white friends come at a very young age

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>and I realized that Santa wasn't black.

0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:36.960
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I've only had white unfortunately.

0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 3>Really yeah, so I would have come over to you

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.800
<v Speaker 3>and we like, okay, I.

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Was going to dress up in that ship in four

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.800
<v Speaker 1>degree in Queensland, exactly.

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, Okay, so black fellows knew better, Yeah, but there

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:53.200
<v Speaker 2>fellows doing so Wales.

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:58.119
<v Speaker 6>So any traditions, anything that you do, traditions.

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Look, I'm not really sure I how to start with

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 2>it to be fair, because I don't want to kind.

0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:04.280
<v Speaker 6>Of drag your family.

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 2>We had traditions though, so my nanam my pop blessed

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:09.200
<v Speaker 2>and they try their hardest. We would always go.

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:10.200
<v Speaker 4>To my other pops for Christmas.

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 2>So the fun fact is that every Friday would get

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:15.360
<v Speaker 2>picked up by my nana my pop after school, even

0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 2>though I lived with my moms, my mum and dad divorced,

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.920
<v Speaker 2>got picked up by my grandparents. Would go to Colton

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:22.760
<v Speaker 2>because that's where they lived, so we would always be

0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 2>with them every single weekend and then come Holidays we

0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 2>would just go there and spend weeks at end. So

0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 2>Christmas would always be in my nad's So I always

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.119
<v Speaker 2>just had Christmas with me and my cousins and my family.

0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 2>It was just the biggest mob get together as kids. Yeah,

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 2>but it wasn't like it wasn't I think I look

0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 2>at other people. We never had decorations. We had like

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.960
<v Speaker 2>a tree which sometimes beit gammin. So it wasn't like

0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.880
<v Speaker 2>when I look at Christmas now and what my kids

0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 2>are getting, it's like polar opposite.

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:52.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I had a Christmas. The most fond Christmas

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:57.480
<v Speaker 3>memory I have was living in Mars and Logan. If

0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:02.000
<v Speaker 3>anyone's from Brisbane's South Brisbane Logan the area that's where

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 3>my family have been for the last you know, forty years,

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 3>my grandparents specifically and my parents, but we couldn't afford

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:15.279
<v Speaker 3>a Christmas tree. And so my uncle's went and hacked

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.760
<v Speaker 3>a tree from the Logan reserve and just dragged that

0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 3>no car literally just.

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 2>Like a pine tree.

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was kind of like it did give you

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 3>Christmas e vies.

0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:34.040
<v Speaker 6>I don't think it was like a proper but in

0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:34.800
<v Speaker 6>my memory, and.

0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 5>I saved fifty because they are actually fifty.

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Bucks seed like two hundred dollars now.

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.600
<v Speaker 3>But it was like the trunk was this big. It

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:44.800
<v Speaker 3>was and it was hard. It just kind of leant

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:47.600
<v Speaker 3>into the corner of the house. In that corner of

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 3>the house.

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.760
<v Speaker 2>They did it properly, yes, And then my.

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.960
<v Speaker 6>Step my mum's boyfriend at the time.

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 3>I was so happy. I woke up on Christmas and

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 3>I had a brand new bike and this was like

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:01.440
<v Speaker 3>a major Christmas for us, because you know, we didn't

0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.320
<v Speaker 3>really get lavish gifts, but I was so keen on

0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:08.359
<v Speaker 3>a bike. And then a few days later I found

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:13.120
<v Speaker 3>out that my mum's boyfriend had stolen another kid's bikes,

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:17.240
<v Speaker 3>spray painted it and gave it to me. And because

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 3>three days later this kid was like, that's my bike.

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 3>I stretched the paint and he was like, that's my bike.

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.160
<v Speaker 3>And I traumatizing for me because we had to give

0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 3>it back.

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 6>And that's not that's a real life story.

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 5>That is the blackest Christmas. Oh my god. You know

0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 5>this is people that have been oppressed.

0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:43.440
<v Speaker 1>I just remember, you know, we're talking about blackfellows that

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 1>have had no intergenerational wealth passed down. We're talking about

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:51.760
<v Speaker 1>our grandmothers and grandfathers being slaves in this country. For

0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>people that are not familiar with Australian history, this is

0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:56.880
<v Speaker 1>our reality.

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.040
<v Speaker 5>No, we don't get all this extra money off the

0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 5>outness because we did. Ginny wouldn't give the bike back.

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 3>I know, it's funny, right because I was just going

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:10.240
<v Speaker 3>to say, I think today like you see these young

0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 3>fellows and my I actually went shopping with my niece

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 3>and my sister yesterday. My niece Charlie, she's four, and

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 3>it's the polarizing, right, that difference. Like when we grew up,

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:24.240
<v Speaker 3>it was like you, I don't even really, I didn't

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.760
<v Speaker 3>count presents. You were just like, oh my god, I

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 3>was so excited to get this bike that was then

0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:29.960
<v Speaker 3>taken away from three days later.

0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:32.199
<v Speaker 6>Anyway, save it for therapists.

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 3>But my niece yesterday we went to Kama and I

0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:38.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, she's out of she's out of day care

0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 3>on a Friday, so we have to take her out.

0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:42.880
<v Speaker 3>So we were, me and my sister went shopping and

0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 3>we were buying stuff for all the other kids for Christmas,

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:48.440
<v Speaker 3>and so she was going, well can I have that?

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:49.480
<v Speaker 6>And I was trying to.

0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 3>Buy presents for her while she was there, pretending that

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:57.240
<v Speaker 3>her yes, for other kids. And anyway, my sister, Paul Darlin,

0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.680
<v Speaker 3>she was in the trolley, just have trolley full of presence.

0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:02.960
<v Speaker 3>None of them are for her, but all of them are,

0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:04.840
<v Speaker 3>but all of them are really for her, and she

0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 3>was crying and she was saying to her, Mum, it's

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:11.439
<v Speaker 3>all right, I don't need anything, don't worry about I'm like, oh, Si, yeah.

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 2>I think it speaks to like the difference though, like

0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's bad that kids nowadays, particularly when

0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 2>we have the ability to be able to provide from

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 2>because we've worked hard, our parents worked hard for us,

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:24.079
<v Speaker 2>so we're able to have the job.

0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:25.839
<v Speaker 6>Do you think that's why you do it? Though you're like,

0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:28.160
<v Speaker 6>I didn't get this, so I'm going to go a

0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 6>bit kind.

0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Of speaks to like any of the reflect growing up,

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.920
<v Speaker 2>like black love to me and my family. Back when

0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:37.679
<v Speaker 2>I was younger, was about being connected and it was

0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:42.400
<v Speaker 2>the small gesses. Now as blackfellows who have done the work,

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 2>our love comes in different kind of presentations now. So

0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:48.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it's really powerful that we're able to say, actually,

0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 2>we have the ability to give our kids that things

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.000
<v Speaker 2>that we never got. And it's just kind of fine

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 2>line of saying, actually, I don't want to kind of

0:09:55.960 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 2>over I guess gift our children or create that I

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.840
<v Speaker 2>want kind of mentality. But I'm like, why can't we though,

0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:05.520
<v Speaker 2>because I've never write with it, but now I have

0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 2>the ability to do it. I don't want to give

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:10.280
<v Speaker 2>a secondhand bike that we stole to my nieces or

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 2>my nephew's right, I give that.

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:19.480
<v Speaker 1>In those days, within those circumstances. Your your mum's boyfriend, right,

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.239
<v Speaker 1>your stip dad. He was trying to show.

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 6>You love, yes, and he wanted to see me happy.

0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And that's what we want our kids to also

0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:33.640
<v Speaker 1>experience that kind of joy and happiness. In terms of Christmas,

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Christmas is coming up and I've invited all of my

0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>family here. Well why not there's two because he bring

0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:46.600
<v Speaker 1>your own sleeping bags this time. I hope that my

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:49.280
<v Speaker 1>dad's brothers, you know that live in Nimbu and can

0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:53.400
<v Speaker 1>see my sisters come up from Sydney. I want all

0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 1>of my nieces and nephews, my sisters because of all

0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>of the trauma of losing our mum and dad. I

0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:06.000
<v Speaker 1>want to actually bring back that Christmas spirit so that

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.200
<v Speaker 1>our nieces and nephews and my kids get to be together.

0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:12.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and I think we should do it for them.

0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.640
<v Speaker 2>I think that speaks to the festive season, right, I

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:16.640
<v Speaker 2>think the festive season for me because Christmas is kind

0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:17.959
<v Speaker 2>of like it's a bit of a religious thing. I'm

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 2>not really that invested in it, and I've really not

0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:23.640
<v Speaker 2>necessarily I've never really engaged in Christmas. So I got

0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:26.319
<v Speaker 2>my nieces and I had kids. Now I don't have them, though,

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, well, I don't really want to celebrate Christmas.

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 2>I want to acknowledge festive seasons because special seeds when

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 2>mob come together. Right. So I'm now trying to create

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 2>a different relationship with it, which I never had up

0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.320
<v Speaker 2>until I never really acknowledge it exists until I had

0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:39.560
<v Speaker 2>the kids. Now the kids are gone, I'm like, well,

0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:41.680
<v Speaker 2>I need to create some level of connection based on

0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.040
<v Speaker 2>this idea of what family love and how.

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:44.680
<v Speaker 4>We foster that.

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:46.120
<v Speaker 5>So what are you doing?

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. If God knows, I'm probably gonna be

0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:48.120
<v Speaker 2>able to sea.

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:50.599
<v Speaker 6>To be honest, yeah, that's what I want to be.

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, I would love to do that this year. I

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 3>am the grinch in my family. I don't love Christmas,

0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:58.760
<v Speaker 3>although I spend a lot of money at Christmas. But

0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:02.240
<v Speaker 3>again it's like that black guilt of like I don't

0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 3>have kids my own, but I do look at my

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 3>nephews and nieces like I gave birth to them literally,

0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:12.360
<v Speaker 3>and so for me, I overdo it. Like I have

0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:16.000
<v Speaker 3>two younger nieces that in ones in high school and

0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.440
<v Speaker 3>the other ones in grade six not to be in

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:21.520
<v Speaker 3>grade six, and I bought them like four hundred dollars

0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.719
<v Speaker 3>worth of Mecca stuff because they like skincare.

0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.760
<v Speaker 6>And my sister's like, you're doing too much, like, but.

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 3>I just go over and above because for me, Christmas

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.760
<v Speaker 3>wasn't the greatest time either. My mum passed around Christmas time.

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:36.520
<v Speaker 3>I had an uncle who passed around Christmas time, so

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:40.880
<v Speaker 3>I literally was just for me Christmas is not that great.

0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 3>But I acknowledge now and my nun she sort of

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:49.080
<v Speaker 3>held the whole family together, and Christmas to me has

0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 3>always been her thing. And now she's getting old, I

0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:56.160
<v Speaker 3>think we need to probably look at recreating Christmas and

0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:56.840
<v Speaker 3>what that looks like.

0:12:56.840 --> 0:13:03.920
<v Speaker 2>But it's difficult back right after this break.

0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm keen to know though. I know that.

0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:15.559
<v Speaker 2>Jan you're a lovely man, so you're married to what

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:17.760
<v Speaker 2>does like the festive season mean to you and him?

0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Because he's American, right.

0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 3>He is, so Christmas in America is very serious. It's

0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 3>a very like I have a friend who has you know,

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.880
<v Speaker 3>a black family as well. They take Christmas very seriously

0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:34.559
<v Speaker 3>and it's very religious as well.

0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:36.360
<v Speaker 6>It's a very religious time for them.

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 3>So he literally it has a Christmas tree in every room.

0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:44.760
<v Speaker 3>It's not one Christmas tree, there's a Christmas tree for

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:47.920
<v Speaker 3>every room, so that you feel that throughout the whole house.

0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.440
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, this is a bit much, but

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:51.560
<v Speaker 3>I also.

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 2>From getting stolen but given to and having Christmas tree.

0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:57.840
<v Speaker 3>In every room literally and now you know in our house,

0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:03.000
<v Speaker 3>I I think should put a Christmas troops in our room.

0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:05.680
<v Speaker 3>I could just create the fact, but I'm the Grinch,

0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 3>so I'm trying to I'm trying to transition from someone

0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:11.600
<v Speaker 3>who will enjoy Christmas because eventually I do want to

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 3>have kids and I don't want to be like so

0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:19.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to be that person, but I think, yeah,

0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 3>it is a very it's it's serious business over there,

0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:25.560
<v Speaker 3>but very commercial as well. So I've loved Christmas in

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:29.200
<v Speaker 3>the US. It's very different obviously though, because Christmas in

0:14:29.240 --> 0:14:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Australia is cold meats, potato, salad, prawns, go to the beach,

0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:39.560
<v Speaker 3>play cricket or you know whatever you're into. For my family,

0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:42.480
<v Speaker 3>the orchards, it's like, you know, we get we generally

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 3>they will hire a hall in this country. Musical day Country,

0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Roger Knox, you know, playing Corey Row that's for seven hours.

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:54.360
<v Speaker 6>Charlie Pride, just non stop.

0:14:54.800 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 3>But over there it's very like turkey made it yes,

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:02.480
<v Speaker 3>cold cooking.

0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 1>It's big turkeys and all of the like black American

0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:08.360
<v Speaker 1>poll greens.

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:13.400
<v Speaker 5>Yes, what is that chitlins.

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:14.480
<v Speaker 6>Listen.

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:16.640
<v Speaker 3>This is the other thing I went to when I

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:19.720
<v Speaker 3>first moved to America. They were like, oh, and he's

0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 3>got a huge family. So when I first went, they

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:26.720
<v Speaker 3>was so excited as a as a as an Australian, like, oh,

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:28.280
<v Speaker 3>you have to try this, and you have to do this,

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.280
<v Speaker 3>so they do. Not all black families do this in America,

0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:37.000
<v Speaker 3>by the way, But they made chitlins, which is pig intestines.

0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.760
<v Speaker 2>Wait what yesestines?

0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 3>Yes, And let me tell you they were they was.

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:45.360
<v Speaker 3>They were so excited, they were so.

0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 6>Excited to feed me.

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.040
<v Speaker 5>This just don't know.

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:52.200
<v Speaker 3>It's yeah, I think it's just in Testine wild.

0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:56.840
<v Speaker 2>You couldn't eat the actual inning in testine it eat it.

0:15:56.840 --> 0:15:57.600
<v Speaker 6>It's disgusting.

0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, anyway, Cedric coast meat, you don't have to eat this.

0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.760
<v Speaker 6>But they were all like, eat it, eat it. You know,

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.040
<v Speaker 6>I can't wait for them to come here because I'm

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 6>going to do the same.

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:13.160
<v Speaker 2>Did you try it?

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.240
<v Speaker 6>I did, and it was fucking.

0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 3>But if they're watching, I loved it, every bit of it.

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Love.

0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:21.840
<v Speaker 6>But it's like, you know when you boiled chicken that

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 6>smell in the house.

0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:27.360

<v Speaker 2>nest so growing up? You never had like silver side

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.400
<v Speaker 2>cooked boiled meat with cabbage. Yeah, silver side, it's the

0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 2>same thing.

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 4>No, it's boiled. It's boiled meat.

0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Though.

0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 4>Boiled meat has like a.

0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 2>Smell and it lingers and it's like it's pungent and

<v Speaker 2>it's like this, like it's that what smells.

0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:44.920
<v Speaker 5>I was smelling in my.

0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:47.880
<v Speaker 4>Wake up in.

0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:49.640
<v Speaker 2>The Sunny coast and it's been forty degrees. You've got

0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:51.240
<v Speaker 2>an air cons at your house and you walk out

0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:52.720
