Speaker 1: Come on hello everyone, Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 2: Hi girls, Hi.
Speaker 3: How exciting, exciting and sad that this is our last
Speaker 3: week of the year, but then we all get to
Speaker 3: go on holiday.
Speaker 4: How cool is this?
Speaker 3: So I myself am jetting off to Romania. That's where
Speaker 3: my fiance Ben lives, So I'm going to spend a
Speaker 3: couple of weeks over there. Guess what I just discovered
Speaker 3: about Romania? And I reckon everyone should introduce this.
Speaker 2: It has a lot of bears.
Speaker 3: I discovered that last time when I booked a hiking
Speaker 3: trip and then Ben told me there's two thousand bears
Speaker 3: that will rip me to shows.
Speaker 5: It's a really interesting place, isn't it. I feel like
Speaker 5: it's a place like Romania. Most people wouldn't have a
Speaker 5: great insight into what Romania is looking, but like Dracula.
Speaker 4: How cool is this? They have implemented something.
Speaker 3: They implemented it as a bit of a trial for
Speaker 3: like a health week, and it went so well that
Speaker 3: they lengthened it out for a couple of months of
Speaker 3: the year, and I think they might keep it. What
Speaker 3: you can do for public transport instead of buying a
Speaker 3: bus ticket, there's a camera in the ticket machine. You
Speaker 3: can do twenty squats and you get a free ticket, So.
Speaker 4: It's encouraging people to exercise.
Speaker 3: So if you don't want your bus ticket, you do
Speaker 3: twenty squats, it records you, then you get you Yeah,
Speaker 3: because it's encouraging people to like live a healthier lifestyle. Cool.
Speaker 5: Okay, what about people who are in wheelchairs will have
Speaker 5: no legs and then they're like, I don't get a
Speaker 5: free ticket or.
Speaker 2: Do they get free tickets? Anyway, they probably get you
Speaker 2: would hope. So otherwise it's very isolated.
Speaker 1: Can you film this for us and send it back
Speaker 1: and we'll put Yeah, you can get fifty squats.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 4: Well, I wonder if it looks at you and it's
Speaker 4: like not.
Speaker 6: Deep enough, like get lower's deep enough.
Speaker 2: Squat's more sense, though, it just takes so much time.
Speaker 5: Imagine peak hour traffic trying to get onto a bus
Speaker 5: and everyone's squatting.
Speaker 3: Well, that's why I think it started off as this
Speaker 3: extra little initiative supposed to be forever, but it's skyrocketed.
Speaker 3: They had like fifty thousand squatting patrons in the first week.
Speaker 5: Squatters squatters but like the Good Current taken on a
Speaker 5: very different name terminology.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is, isn't it? Well? All for two pound?
Speaker 6: Bus fair her one pound? I think one pound? Yeah?
Speaker 6: All right.
Speaker 1: Next on the show, we're kicking off with the controversy
Speaker 1: of the country. A ray Gun the Olympian, the kangaroo nanswer.
Speaker 2: Everyone's talking about it.
Speaker 1: Well, she's kind of shot herself in the Little Kangaroo
Speaker 1: Pao here because she was an Australian icon. Now this
Speaker 1: week one of the most hated people in the country.
Speaker 4: Oh that's tough, big strap, just a grace.
Speaker 5: Would you agree?
Speaker 6: No, I really got met someone internality. Would you agree?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 6: I think he's paid twelve an hour? All right? Next,
Speaker 6: ray Gun? Why is she canceled? Or tell you after this?
Speaker 1: One of the biggest news stories of the last year
Speaker 1: has been a Rachel ray Gun.
Speaker 6: Ray Gun. Yeah, classic r G.
Speaker 1: She was ourations of yeah, a representative at the Paris
Speaker 1: Olympic for breakdancing, and she had that iconic kangaroo hop
Speaker 1: that abysmal performance, which really watching back wasn't that bad,
Speaker 1: but it was one of those viral internet moments that
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: No, it really was that bad. It really was.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean she became she's become like a meme. In
Speaker 5: another self.
Speaker 2: It was just unique.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing though, in recent days people have been
Speaker 1: discussing Raygun and if she's played the whole thing the
Speaker 1: right way, because, as we know, if you have a
Speaker 1: big moment like that, like a viral moment, you can
Speaker 1: really ride that and monetize it and live your life
Speaker 1: off that newfound fame, right, you can be icon status
Speaker 1: like she was on They did parodies of her on
Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon. Everyone in the US were talking about it.
Speaker 1: Raygun was everywhere. Now Sydney based comedian Steph Broadbridge, who
Speaker 1: I've seen alive. She's very funny. She put on Raygun
Speaker 1: the Musical, which was meant to be this past weekend.
Speaker 1: Now mind you, it was at a GABA and it
Speaker 1: was to a very small audience.
Speaker 4: This was the seventy seats.
Speaker 6: This is not like a four thousand seat venue. It's
Speaker 6: a small comedian and.
Speaker 5: It's obviously a comedy parody performance, right, Like it's all
Speaker 5: It was meant to be about Raygun's upbringing stuff, wasn't it,
Speaker 5: and her rise to Olympic fame.
Speaker 1: Yes, correct, it was meant to be a bit of fun, right.
Speaker 1: She's had to cancel the show because ray Gun's legal
Speaker 1: team got involved and said, hey, babe, cease and desist.
Speaker 1: This is what Steph has posted to her socials this weekend.
Speaker 6: Hi, I'm comedian Steph broad Rich my Chile show for Raygun.
Speaker 2: The musical has been canceled.
Speaker 5: Ray Gun's lawyers got in touch with the venue and
Speaker 5: threatened legal actions.
Speaker 6: So they were very concerned that people would think that
Speaker 6: Rachel Gunn was affiliated with the musical.
Speaker 5: I want to assure everyone she will not be part
Speaker 5: of the show.
Speaker 6: They also said, I wasn't allowed to do the dance.
Speaker 1: Kangaroo dance.
Speaker 6: What do we think?
Speaker 1: Do we think this is a bit off from Rachel
Speaker 1: Raygun or is she just trying to protect a brand.
Speaker 2: Look, it's a tricky one.
Speaker 5: And when I very first read it, I was also like, oh,
Speaker 5: come on, like, let a comedian have a laugh. And
Speaker 5: also all the money that Steph was raising through the
Speaker 5: show was going towards a woman's.
Speaker 2: Shelter, like it was all for charity as well.
Speaker 5: But the more I thought about it, the more I
Speaker 5: do you feel sorry for Raygun?
Speaker 2: Because I think it would be incredibly.
Speaker 5: Hard to see all of these other people making money
Speaker 5: off your image. And I say this because you can
Speaker 5: buy Halloween costumes of Raygun, you can buy Christmas baubles,
Speaker 5: you can even buy this little thing that you stick
Speaker 5: on the back of your car window so that the
Speaker 5: windscreen wipe. But when it goes like this, it's Raygun's
Speaker 5: legs flick. But so many people work their ass off
Speaker 5: to get to that level of status.
Speaker 2: Totally.
Speaker 5: But the problem is that she's not making any money
Speaker 5: off that. So like all these people and all these
Speaker 5: companies and external sources are making a lot of money
Speaker 5: off the back of her image, but she's not profiting
Speaker 5: from it. So I understand why she's wanting to like
Speaker 5: trademark her image, trademark Raygun, and also trademark the dance
Speaker 5: moves that she did so that other people can't profit
Speaker 5: off her product.
Speaker 3: I think it goes further than that as well, and
Speaker 3: I completely agree Laura. I think that she's just had enough.
Speaker 3: She has been made fun of and been the butt
Speaker 3: of the joke worldwide, not nationally, not locally worldwide, like
Speaker 3: the biggest artists, athletes, comedians in the world have been
Speaker 3: taking the piers. I don't think she went to shut
Speaker 3: down this little production on its own. I don't think
Speaker 3: she pointed it out. I think she set up hard enough.
Speaker 3: Whatever comes up in the next few months shut it down.
Speaker 5: What do you think, Mitch, I feel like you've got
Speaker 5: a different opinion.
Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of do. I just think we're
Speaker 1: taking it so seriously. She's a breakdancer. She's also not
Speaker 1: like a brain surgeon who's being mocked. She's a breakdancer.
Speaker 1: That is the most ridiculous a form of entertainment.
Speaker 5: But also the sports will probably disagree, the breakers will
Speaker 5: feel differently.
Speaker 1: About I know, but no, I'm not putting down break dancing.
Speaker 1: I admire it, but it's it's it's fun, it's entertainment.
Speaker 5: And especially I think it's really the Australian way to
Speaker 5: be like, lean into the joke, be self deprecating, like
Speaker 5: you know, be a part of it.
Speaker 2: And I do think that she probably could.
Speaker 5: Have navigated this a little bit differently, in that if
Speaker 5: she really had leant into the jokes as well, she
Speaker 5: probably would be more of like the Australian's sweetheart than online.
Speaker 5: It seems like people still really have some very mixed
Speaker 5: feelings about the performance and everything else.
Speaker 1: Y know, there's no ill ill like you know, thoughts
Speaker 1: towards Raygun. I hope, but it's just the irony of
Speaker 1: all this is that come January or February, she'll be
Speaker 1: in the Army of celebrity jungle.
Speaker 5: And I am convinced she's doing it, absolutely convinced. Well,
Speaker 5: she came out and said she's absolutely not doing it.
Speaker 5: She went so hard on saying that she's not doing it,
Speaker 5: but I think she might. But then more rumors came
Speaker 5: out that she is, that she's back in.
Speaker 6: Just so suitor up and coming comedian. So I don't
Speaker 6: take all, yeah.
Speaker 4: Maybe she's out again.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: We'll say, well, look coming up. I want to know,
Speaker 5: have you ever lied to your children? And if so,
Speaker 5: give us a call and tell us what those lies were,
Speaker 5: because I lied to my kids on the weekend, and
Speaker 5: look it went pretty well actually on the pick up.
Speaker 5: So I discovered a new way.
Speaker 2: Actually it's protainly a new way.
Speaker 5: I don't know how I would describe this, but basically
Speaker 5: I lied to my children on the weekend.
Speaker 4: I don't have to describe this.
Speaker 6: Okay, I'm a new thing.
Speaker 2: I'm a liar.
Speaker 5: The thing is is, I think most parents have told
Speaker 5: their kids a white lie. So either get out of
Speaker 5: doing something that they don't want to do or to try,
Speaker 5: and just like soften the arguments or the debating that
Speaker 5: happens when you've got little kids. If you have lied
Speaker 5: to your children about something, give us call, let us
Speaker 5: know what it is, because I need the affirmation that
Speaker 5: I'm not a terrible parrot. So on the weekend where
Speaker 5: we are, it was torrential rain on Saturday, like it
Speaker 5: was it was absolutely bucketing down and now the kids
Speaker 5: have been desperate to go and see Majana Too at
Speaker 5: the cinema looks very good. And I was like, great, okay, Sunday,
Speaker 5: that's what is going to be our rainy day activity.
Speaker 2: I'll take them to the cinemas. So we booked in.
Speaker 5: We bought tickets to Juana two, had the time slot
Speaker 5: locked in. The kids were so excited, like they were
Speaker 5: absolutely pumped for it. And then Sunday rolled around and
Speaker 5: we woke up and I opened the blinds and it
Speaker 5: was a beautiful day here on Sunday, like it was
Speaker 5: absolutely pristine.
Speaker 2: The sun was out, it was so hot, and Matt.
Speaker 5: And I we had this moment where we were like,
Speaker 5: the last thing I want to do is go and
Speaker 5: sit in a cinema on the only hot day that
Speaker 5: we've had in so long. So we went downstairs and
Speaker 5: we told the kids, guys, we're so sorry, but we
Speaker 5: can't go to the cinema today. Emali and Lawla obviously devastated,
Speaker 5: and we were like, the cinemas are only open when
Speaker 5: it's raining, and they're closed on hot days, so you
Speaker 5: have to do an outside act on a hot day.
Speaker 5: And tears gone instantly. They were like, okay, mom, we
Speaker 5: get that, and we went to the beach. I spent
Speaker 5: the whole day at the beach, and now I need
Speaker 5: to at some point tell my kids that actually, the
Speaker 5: cinemas are open even when it's raining, I mean sunny.
Speaker 4: I think it's an okay lie for now.
Speaker 3: The problem is they're going to go to school and
Speaker 3: they're gonna tell their friends that, and their friends are
Speaker 3: going to go I'm calling bs. I go to the
Speaker 3: cinema all the time when it's sunny, and I'll just
Speaker 3: tell them.
Speaker 2: And you've got to double down, right, friend's wrong.
Speaker 1: Your friend, It's all right, don't stress it. You've got
Speaker 1: to make it through adulthood somehow. Why are your kids?
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean there's got to be a benchmark
Speaker 5: to it, right, there's a limit to how much you
Speaker 5: can lie. We did have a few people right into
Speaker 5: the text line. This one mom said that she told
Speaker 5: her children that the eject button on the CD player
Speaker 5: in the car was actually to eject their seat if
Speaker 5: they were misbehaving.
Speaker 6: Who put used the CDs? I don't believe that. Yeah,
Speaker 6: that a CD.
Speaker 2: They probably don't anymore.
Speaker 5: They might be older and their kids have grown up,
Speaker 5: but it was like what they use. They said, like
Speaker 5: that button if you're misbehaving, that eject is not for
Speaker 5: the CD.
Speaker 2: It's for you. You're going out of the car window,
Speaker 2: don't You used.
Speaker 3: To have cars that had the CD player like under
Speaker 3: the seat and you.
Speaker 4: Could have like five stuckers under Yeah. Or Mitch's too young.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're too young.
Speaker 5: My mum always used to tell me that if you
Speaker 5: put the car lights on when you were driving and
Speaker 5: drove for any distance with the internal car lights on
Speaker 5: at night time, it was illegal and we were get
Speaker 5: pulled over by the police.
Speaker 1: Georgie says, when the kids want to watch TV and
Speaker 1: I don't want them to a convince them that the
Speaker 1: Wiggles are asleep.
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair that's good.
Speaker 6: The wiggles are just alive.
Speaker 2: I think this is good.
Speaker 3: Lottie Lotty said, I gas lit my kids into believing
Speaker 3: their noses turned red every time they lie, but only
Speaker 3: adults can see it.
Speaker 4: That's when you wean the pool and it turns back.
Speaker 6: That's fake.
Speaker 1: Rene says, I told my kid that there were ants
Speaker 1: that come out from under his bed when it's dark,
Speaker 1: so he doesn't get out of bed.
Speaker 5: No show me, because you've got to be able to
Speaker 5: get out.
Speaker 4: Of bed if you're scared or need to.
Speaker 2: We Yeah, and you also can't like traumatize your children.
Speaker 6: When Amy's given us a call, Hey, Amy, what light
Speaker 6: do you tell your kids?
Speaker 5: Hi?
Speaker 2: There?
Speaker 3: I tell my kids that if they eat boggers, will
Speaker 3: take them to the hospital and the doctor little have
Speaker 3: to take their bookers out by surgery.
Speaker 2: That's also traumatizing.
Speaker 3: There's something disgusting about thinking about someone eating boggers.
Speaker 4: Isn't there No, it's a little bit of a snatch,
Speaker 4: like they don't They also think it tastes good, like
Speaker 4: it's just what kids some kids do.
Speaker 5: They're like, it's nice. Do you know what what my
Speaker 5: oldest has just started doing? She she came into the
Speaker 5: bedroom the other morning and she was like, hey, Mommy,
Speaker 5: I just put this in the glass. I have a
Speaker 5: glass cup next to the sink. She's like, I'm just
Speaker 5: putting this in the glass cup and I was like,
Speaker 5: what is it? And she goes, Oh, it's my scab.
Speaker 5: I've been collecting that. She got four scabs. There was
Speaker 5: four scabs in the glass cup next to the sink.
Speaker 2: That makes kids a gross.
Speaker 1: And they need to She needs to see someone because
Speaker 1: that's Jeffrey Darma started doing it and he starts collecting scabs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think roadkill.
Speaker 6: Okay, very different, is fine? All right?
Speaker 4: Next on the show, Yeah, next on the show. Speaking
Speaker 4: of disgusting, my fiance Ben has.
Speaker 3: Been encouraged to do a pretty wild thing to help
Speaker 3: treat an injury. I have not heard of this before
Speaker 3: in my life, and I think you're going.
Speaker 4: To be just as shocked.
Speaker 6: All right, after this on the pickup.
Speaker 3: I learned something today. I'm going to make this a
Speaker 3: bit of an education piece because I'm going to assume
Speaker 3: there are a lot of people sitting in the car. Mitch, Laura,
Speaker 3: I'm going to assume you also don't know. So my
Speaker 3: fiancee Ben lives overseas in Romania. What I know. You
Speaker 3: know that that's not the education piece. But last week
Speaker 3: or two weeks ago whatever, he hurt himself. He's a
Speaker 3: professional athlete bace football. He like hurt his calf muscle,
Speaker 3: not seriously back in a week or two anyway to.
Speaker 4: Speed up the recovery.
Speaker 3: They have been told me that they're going to try
Speaker 3: this new lake technique. Now apparently there's this one woman
Speaker 3: that's renowned for it in another European country.
Speaker 4: I don't maybe Poland. I don't know where she is.
Speaker 3: They fly athletes to her, or they'll fly her to athletes,
Speaker 3: and what she does is mass sages plus center into
Speaker 3: the injury. And that is the way that they're treating
Speaker 3: injuries over in Europe.
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you, but I hate it. No thanks, placenter.
Speaker 2: I don't want that on that way.
Speaker 6: So placenter is like after birth.
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, It's like you have your baby and then
Speaker 5: you give birth to the placenta. It's the placenta is
Speaker 5: what keeps the baby alive? Yeah, well yeah, it's it's
Speaker 5: life supply. Basically, it's connected to your uterus and it's
Speaker 5: part of the uterus lining.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would like to think there's nothing more nutrient
Speaker 3: dense in the world, Like it is literally responsible for
Speaker 3: growing a human and keeping them alive, Like it's the
Speaker 3: properties in the power of placenta are incredible.
Speaker 2: But surely just.
Speaker 5: Massaging into the skin is not going to fix his muscles, Like,
Speaker 5: surely she's got to inject placenta into him or something
Speaker 5: rather than just like giving him a massage with it.
Speaker 3: I think they might maybe it's like dry needling where
Speaker 3: they put little tiny needles in and then they massage
Speaker 3: the I don't know, no one quote minds, but I
Speaker 3: know it's I know there's after birth been rubbed down
Speaker 3: on him, and that's what's supposed to.
Speaker 5: Like who after birth are we talking about? Like is
Speaker 5: he just going to the like local outpatient clinic for
Speaker 5: the women's hospital or is it a farm animal?
Speaker 2: Like how are you?
Speaker 6: Europe is so weird, man, it's probably some sex kink
Speaker 6: after birth Europeans things.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 3: I did ask this because in my head when he
Speaker 3: told me that's what they're going to do, I just
Speaker 3: pictured some poor woman that's just birthed something and then
Speaker 3: Ben's going to be wheeled in and rubbed down with.
Speaker 2: The after birth. But it's actually a horse, perfect, Yeah,
Speaker 2: the women's horse or the horse.
Speaker 3: A horse has a baby horse and then the horse
Speaker 3: placenta and then a burst of placenta.
Speaker 4: Then they store the placenta from the horse.
Speaker 6: So is it rubbed?
Speaker 1: Is because I'm picturing the placenter wrapped around an ankle,
Speaker 1: almost like an ankle.
Speaker 6: Guard, and it's like shipping.
Speaker 4: Up and down.
Speaker 6: You're like a sham woux kind of thing. But is
Speaker 6: it is it? Is it dehydrated or is it?
Speaker 4: I don't I think it's moist. I imagine it still
Speaker 4: has to be more.
Speaker 6: Can't be moistful.
Speaker 2: It's like.
Speaker 6: You know what it's like, you know, you know what
Speaker 6: I'm picturing.
Speaker 1: You know, when you hurt your back and you get
Speaker 1: a deep heat patch and it kind of is a
Speaker 1: sticky taped heat patch to your back. I'm picturing it's
Speaker 1: just a sticky taped placenta and leave it on.
Speaker 5: It can't be moist. Also, it's gonna be humongous if
Speaker 5: it's a horse. But secondly, it'd be like rubbing a
Speaker 5: minute steak on your leg, Like what's that gonna do?
Speaker 5: Like I said, not to yuck anyone's young, but Obviously,
Speaker 5: people do loads of things with placenta these days. You
Speaker 5: can get it hydrated and put into a peal, you
Speaker 5: eat them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can. Like a lot of women who.
Speaker 5: Have had babies, they then consume their own placenta. It's
Speaker 5: a little bit of a kind of like a new
Speaker 5: age type of thing. But also you can go to
Speaker 5: the chemist and get sheep placenta hair mask. Jokes aside,
Speaker 5: I think you should try that, Laura, Like Laura's got
Speaker 5: his whole hair thinning problem.
Speaker 4: At the moment, I think she's just way.
Speaker 6: Laura at the moment, we're.
Speaker 2: We will talk about it. She's been talking about it
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 4: But maybe that's what you should try. If athletes are
Speaker 4: using placenta to heal quicker, you could grow You can
Speaker 4: grow a mullet. Who knows what your potentially is if
Speaker 4: you put placenta in your hair.
Speaker 6: Are you two being paid by big placenta? What is
Speaker 6: going on?
Speaker 2: Please do not pull me into this.
Speaker 5: I think Brittany has an ambassadorship for placenta coming out.
Speaker 4: I'm not the face of placenter. I don't even have
Speaker 4: my own placenta yet.
Speaker 6: Tired headaches.
Speaker 1: If you thought about placenter now placenter rapid works in
Speaker 1: half the time as average per center.
Speaker 2: Allergic reaction, stomach cramps. Have you tried the center.
Speaker 6: Pretty hotly in a field of horses? Hi, all right,
Speaker 6: let's go out of here. Thanks for listening to the show.
Speaker 6: We are back tomorrow. You can podcast the show on
Speaker 6: the iHeartRadio app search that pick up and we'll see
Speaker 6: you all tomorrow from three.
Speaker 4: See you guys,
