Speaker 1: Is it just really stood by a couple of mitches.
Speaker 2: He's called girl. Bless yourself for the rude shocks of
Speaker 2: young adults.
Speaker 3: No one sister world turn as an adult. Kids would
Speaker 3: be like, can I return? You don't say that she
Speaker 3: as an adult? Can I return? In your car? I
Speaker 3: want to turn.
Speaker 2: It is Michui and michual cous.
Speaker 3: Oh hello you, Helloha.
Speaker 2: You, Oh my god, very true, Aloha you. By the
Speaker 2: time you'll be hearing these people, I will be in
Speaker 2: Waikiki Helloha hello haa. Is that it's not a visit?
Speaker 4: You're not hello ha just helloha? I think I'm just
Speaker 4: I'm going off Laylo and stitch.
Speaker 2: It's aloha, right, I don't know mahalo.
Speaker 4: By the way, what the fuck this just came out
Speaker 4: of nowhere? You just decided, Ah, I'm going to Hawaii
Speaker 4: all of a sudden.
Speaker 2: I know, I know. I'm going for my my mom
Speaker 2: sixtieth Sorry, I did come prepared. By the way, my mum,
Speaker 2: my beautiful ma Michelle is sixty and her dream is
Speaker 2: to go to Hawaii with the family because we went
Speaker 2: ten years ago.
Speaker 3: By the way, I can't.
Speaker 4: Believe she's turning sixty. She does not look a day
Speaker 4: over fifty nine.
Speaker 2: No, she thank you so much. She looks fantastic. And
Speaker 2: we went in twenty ten as a family and she's
Speaker 2: wanted to replicate it ever since. She hasn't even been
Speaker 2: back overseas since twenty ten. Wow, So she is so like,
Speaker 2: she puts things off. She's a massive procrastinator. So we
Speaker 2: had to do it for her. We organized it, We
Speaker 2: surprised her, and we're flying out Saturday. We'll be in
Speaker 2: Waikiki for ten days.
Speaker 3: Far out, I mean, oh nice.
Speaker 4: The obvious needs to be said that the podcast is
Speaker 4: taking a few weeks off because you're on holiday. We're
Speaker 4: having a little bit of an easter break. But we'll
Speaker 4: be back sometime in the next few weeks. And guess
Speaker 4: who is back today?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Price keeper Jenne is here. She's back.
Speaker 2: She's a lie everyone.
Speaker 3: How's the long COVID treating you a.
Speaker 5: You know, fatigue setting in rapidly, But you know, I'm
Speaker 5: getting there.
Speaker 2: I'm getting there, poor thing. They say. COVID sort of
Speaker 2: lingers too, like it can kind of come back and
Speaker 2: kick you back in the butt after a couple of weeks.
Speaker 5: I really don't want that.
Speaker 2: She looks good, don't you think.
Speaker 3: Mitch, Yeah, she does.
Speaker 4: I don't want to scare you or anything, Jenna, but
Speaker 4: I would say that my post COVID fog has only
Speaker 4: just started to get better in the last month.
Speaker 3: And I had it in March of twenty twenty two.
Speaker 6: Good.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was rough for a bit there. Oh no,
Speaker 4: I was also just my mental health in general. But anyway,
Speaker 4: we won't get into that.
Speaker 2: No, but I'm with you. I had it. I've had
Speaker 2: it twice now. I had it in January of this year,
Speaker 2: and like, I still feel like it just has thrown
Speaker 2: me off mentally, but like I've got that crap, I've
Speaker 2: got the brain illness, so, like you know, I've got
Speaker 2: other issues going on. So I think it threw my
Speaker 2: whole central nervous system out.
Speaker 4: But I just find it easier to blame COVID. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 4: is it the depression nap got to be COVID totally.
Speaker 2: I eat a full cheese toasty at midnight and then
Speaker 2: sleep like in tear. I sleep terribly, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: it's COVID from January, and Hayden's like, I think it's
Speaker 2: because your blood sugar was three times the human limit.
Speaker 2: I'm like, nah, it's COVID.
Speaker 5: That's what I like about having official COVID is that
Speaker 5: I can blame stuff on cold.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you live to tell a tale. Congratulations, that's good.
Speaker 2: That's good. Were you're back. How Connie would have loved
Speaker 2: having your home?
Speaker 5: Oh, she absolutely loved it, especially the week before with intruder,
Speaker 5: so that you know, it was nice being there with her.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Mitch, imagine if Jenna was home during
Speaker 2: the intruder break in because she had COVID.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was the man wouldn't have walked away alive.
Speaker 5: No, well, there would be one person dead. It would
Speaker 5: be either me or him either had a heart attack or.
Speaker 2: I would have you've gone into defensive mum.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say in that situation, fight or flight,
Speaker 4: Jenna would fucking fight.
Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, you'd be a fighter. You know when
Speaker 2: someone like that, someone gets attacked and then they're like, oh,
Speaker 2: we knew that it was defensive. There were defensive wounds
Speaker 2: because they were covered in scratches. That would be you. You've
Speaker 2: got those now cause you would shred someone up.
Speaker 5: Yeah. No, I feel like I do have the ability
Speaker 5: to to shred somebody to death.
Speaker 2: That something you should be proud of at the end
Speaker 2: of the day. So I'm going to Hawaii, Mitch, you
Speaker 2: do it for the next two weeks while we take
Speaker 2: a break.
Speaker 4: Well, I'll be going to stay in Rhodes and Maries Airbnb,
Speaker 4: as I spoke to you about last week. Oh yeah,
Speaker 4: and then you know we'll have AESA. I'll be doing
Speaker 4: the Melbourne Comedy Festival quite soon. So yeah, no, not
Speaker 4: really a holiday for me.
Speaker 2: Okay. Well, still nice little break for the three of us,
Speaker 2: and then we'll come back rearing and ready to go.
Speaker 3: Jane's just had a fucking three week break from us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she's been ill.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been ill. Intruders, Well, I'm ill currently.
Speaker 3: Jenna and I've turned up virtually.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mitch's from home today. Everybody's right.
Speaker 4: Doesn't this take you back to the good old days
Speaker 4: of Lockdown when I couldn't come into the studio for
Speaker 4: the podcast.
Speaker 2: God, someone messaged me the other day and was like,
Speaker 2: I'm just started listening. I'm sixty five. I love the shows.
Speaker 2: It's so weird to go back and listen to all
Speaker 2: the COVID episodes because we took it so seriously at
Speaker 2: the start, then we're kind of scared, and then we're like,
Speaker 2: what the fuck's going on? And then we just gave up.
Speaker 2: She's like, it's so funny to listen back because I think,
Speaker 2: like our podcast started in twenty nineteen and then COVID here,
Speaker 2: we've only been on the cloud for a couple of
Speaker 2: weeks before, a couple months before COVID was a thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had to work from home for like, I
Speaker 4: don't know, four or five months, So I'm an old
Speaker 4: hack at this.
Speaker 2: It's fine, Well, it's good to good to all be
Speaker 2: here for our last episode before our mid quarterly entry
Speaker 2: level year break.
Speaker 4: Can it needs to be pointed out why I'm working
Speaker 4: from home though, it's out of the goodness of my heart.
Speaker 3: I would like the praise please.
Speaker 2: Oh yes. So Mitchell was worried that he would infect
Speaker 2: me before I depart on my trip all expenses paid
Speaker 2: to ky Key, and he said, I don't I said,
Speaker 2: you have COVID because I don't want to give Hayden,
Speaker 2: who's allergic to it. I don't want to give him COVID.
Speaker 5: Absolutely not.
Speaker 3: I don't have COVID.
Speaker 4: I've just got a fucked flu. And I was like
Speaker 4: I don't want to ruin your holiday.
Speaker 2: So that is very thoughtful. Mitchell I was shocked to
Speaker 2: actually call Hayden. I'm like, Mitch isn't coming in. He's
Speaker 2: going to do the pod from home because he doesn't
Speaker 2: want to infect me. And he was like wow, he
Speaker 2: was blown away that act of kindness, selfless.
Speaker 3: Why is that so surprising?
Speaker 2: Surprising? It's just nice. So it's just a nice act.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I've got your immune system to contend with.
Speaker 4: You would absolutely catch whatever I've go Oh.
Speaker 2: My god, totally yeah. You could text me and I'd
Speaker 2: catch what you've got. That's how system is.
Speaker 3: It's true sneeze on FaceTime and you're.
Speaker 2: Like, oh god, now, well, let's start the show on
Speaker 2: the way. We're doing a Jenis junk. We've got our
Speaker 2: Jenna back and Mitch and I have built up the
Speaker 2: junk since you've been gone, and we're we're going to
Speaker 2: be emptying out the system. Really a good clear out
Speaker 2: all the gunk.
Speaker 3: Her junk. It's full of all of our shit.
Speaker 4: Is it just my ideas that we think, nah, let's
Speaker 4: not actually bring that up on the podcast, But then
Speaker 4: they end up being brought up anyway, totally.
Speaker 2: Yeah, But if it is your first time listening, this
Speaker 2: is it just me? Every week we start the show
Speaker 2: with two? Is it just me? Something we've noticed, something
Speaker 2: we hate or appreciate. Mitch doesn't know mine. I don't know, mitches.
Speaker 3: These are the good gems, the ones that aren't junk.
Speaker 2: No, these make it to the show. So mine this
Speaker 2: week is something that I was reading about that I
Speaker 2: think is absolute bullshit.
Speaker 3: I think it's horse sh didn't know you could read?
Speaker 2: I know, I've just learned. It's so much fun. I
Speaker 2: have to read with my finger though, And when I read,
Speaker 2: I have one of those book lights, you know when
Speaker 2: you're a kid and you had Harry Potter and you
Speaker 2: had that clip online at the top of the book. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's the only way I.
Speaker 3: Can do it.
Speaker 2: So I'll be reading. I'll be reading from that. That's mine.
Speaker 3: Oh would you want me to go first?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you go first.
Speaker 3: Get yours out of the way, all right, let's go.
Speaker 2: Is it just me?
Speaker 3: Should we all be saying no to shit we don't
Speaker 3: really want to do more often?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Deep one, Yeah, I think we should. It's hard to
Speaker 2: say no, though, You've got to unlearn some real habit
Speaker 2: to be able to be comfortable to do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it depends on the person. If you're more of
Speaker 3: a people please or it is harder to say no.
Speaker 4: I reckon, I've gotten pretty good at it. But it's
Speaker 4: not just about pleasing others. It's about saying no to
Speaker 4: shit that you don't really want to do yourself, but
Speaker 4: you still feel like you should.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, what give us an example, what have you
Speaker 2: started saying no to?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 4: The reason I started thinking about this was because I
Speaker 4: listened to a podcast the other day called The Imperfect
Speaker 4: And you know Christy Swan, who I fucking adore.
Speaker 3: I love Christy Swan.
Speaker 2: Yeah she's great. She's made competitor in the afternoon, by
Speaker 2: the way.
Speaker 3: So I, oh, yeah, she's your competition.
Speaker 4: I mean, I also loved the pickup weekdays on the
Speaker 4: Kids we.
Speaker 2: Can love Chrissy Swan. I love Christy Swan. She's gorgeous.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Anyway, I was listening to The Imperfect.
Speaker 4: Chrissy was their guest, and she was talking about starting
Speaker 4: to set boundaries and say no to shit that she
Speaker 4: doesn't really want to do, because at the end of
Speaker 4: the day, all these things were making her quite unhappy
Speaker 4: in the long run, and so I'll play some examples
Speaker 4: of some of the shit that Chrissy is starting to
Speaker 4: say no to.
Speaker 7: I was pretending to like things that mothers should like,
Speaker 7: and I stopped the weekend sports. It made them miserable,
Speaker 7: It made me miserable. None of us were enjoying it.
Speaker 7: We were doing it. All of us were doing it
Speaker 7: because we were told that we should do it. We're
Speaker 7: not those types of people, and that was really freeing.
Speaker 7: So instead, we are currently on the hunt for the
Speaker 7: best butter chicken in Melbourne. That's us. We're on fire
Speaker 7: for that.
Speaker 3: Doesn't that sound like so much fun?
Speaker 2: That's great? I love that so much God, And.
Speaker 4: That, oh, are you joining the fucking soccer team this term?
Speaker 4: Nat mom and I are looking for some sick buttered chicken.
Speaker 2: Amazing, so true, because I feel like half the time
Speaker 2: parents hate the soccer the sports that the kids are
Speaker 2: in as well, they always do totally just feel like
Speaker 2: you've got to do stuff like that. But that's true,
Speaker 2: not even sports specific, Like, there are so many things
Speaker 2: that we do because we're conditioned to just do them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it all comes down to the words should people like, oh,
Speaker 4: I should enjoy this? I should do that, And so
Speaker 4: I need you to to think right now of something
Speaker 4: that you're going to draw a line in the stand
Speaker 4: and say no more. I'll give you a bit of
Speaker 4: time to think in the meantime. Here's another one of
Speaker 4: Chrazy's examples.
Speaker 7: I was running myself ragged to do the school lunches,
Speaker 7: which are shit house boring. So if you just once
Speaker 7: say I'm not feeling that, or what about we do
Speaker 7: this instead, or just little things like one of the
Speaker 7: first things I did was I went on to my
Speaker 7: phone and I looked up the lunch order service at
Speaker 7: my kids primary school, and I ticked every single fucking
Speaker 7: day marguerite, a pit of pizza, chop, chip, cookie, and
Speaker 7: a bottle of milk.
Speaker 8: Done.
Speaker 5: That sounds young?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say, God, I wish I had
Speaker 2: a Mumm like that.
Speaker 4: I feel like that's a win win. The kids are
Speaker 4: like lunch orders every day. Sweet, I've got one, Okay,
Speaker 4: so I've got one.
Speaker 2: I have a problem with saying yes to everything, like
Speaker 2: when it comes to work. I will say yes to
Speaker 2: anything anyone wants me.
Speaker 3: When it comes to work.
Speaker 4: Gotcha, I was gonna say, I have not yet experienced
Speaker 4: this problem of yours saying yes to everything. I get
Speaker 4: a lot of rejection from you when it comes to
Speaker 4: social outings, but that's okay.
Speaker 2: That's different and comfortable saying no in a social outing.
Speaker 2: It's like, I'm a workaholic, but I don't identify as
Speaker 2: a workaholic. And I've only just realized that I work
Speaker 2: a fucking shit tone like far too much, too many
Speaker 2: hours in the day, and I'm exhausting myself.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you put your hand up for a lot as well,
Speaker 4: like taking on extra.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's ridiculous and I haven't even you guys will
Speaker 2: understand this, but it requires context. Where I work at Kiss,
Speaker 2: I used to do a segment called the Cashcock, which
Speaker 2: I've spoken about, where I dressed up as a rooster
Speaker 2: got tackled to the ground and I said yes to
Speaker 2: that because I had nothing else on and it got
Speaker 2: me into the company and it was great. But now
Speaker 2: I've got two national shows on Kiss and it's awesome.
Speaker 2: And Cashcock was back and they said to me, oh,
Speaker 2: we'd love you to do Cashcock, And in my head,
Speaker 2: I'm like, I've got to say yes. I've got to
Speaker 2: say yes, I've got to do it, and it's like, no,
Speaker 2: I don't have to dress up.
Speaker 4: Ye, you can't be running around it's the bloody radio
Speaker 4: station mascot at six in the morning and then still
Speaker 4: be on air at ten o'clock at night.
Speaker 3: That's just free handle both.
Speaker 2: Twenty seven years old with a partner, and also when
Speaker 2: I'm on the network twice in the day trying to
Speaker 2: be taken seriously as an actual hope, I'm like, also,
Speaker 2: that's me in the morning being tackled by a trade,
Speaker 2: which I would enjoy, by the way. But I went
Speaker 2: home and was talking to my mom and she said,
Speaker 2: I heard the cash Cock. They're promoting it on the air.
Speaker 2: So who got the job? And I said, oh, I'm
Speaker 2: not actually sure who got the job? Mum. She went, well,
Speaker 2: that's really disappointing that you said no to that. And
Speaker 2: I said, why I'm on machine because it's good. It's
Speaker 2: a really good opportunity. Great to get you in front
Speaker 2: of the people that matter. Well, I'm like, mom, I've
Speaker 2: got two shows.
Speaker 5: What do you mean all these people want is cash?
Speaker 5: They're not there.
Speaker 2: They're not there for me, but they're not there for cock.
Speaker 4: Now you're gonna be like fuck this, mom, I'm hiding
Speaker 4: your passport, you want to come into.
Speaker 2: Hawaii fucking treading it. It's just and that just I
Speaker 2: don't know that. I'm trying to understand the psyche of
Speaker 2: why I say yes to everything. Maybe it's because I
Speaker 2: want to be you know, I'm going away to Hawaii.
Speaker 2: Like I said, we've been talking about someone's feeling in
Speaker 2: on my show. I'm like, who's feeling and who is it?
Speaker 2: Who's taking over?
Speaker 3: I'm like, why do I not your problem?
Speaker 2: But that's exactly right, doesn't need to be my problem.
Speaker 2: So I need to start saying no to all this
Speaker 2: extra stuff that a won't benefit me and be like
Speaker 2: you said, isn't my problem.
Speaker 4: I didn't intend this dym to be this deep, but
Speaker 4: we're going deep now because I know where your tendency
Speaker 4: to say yes comes from. Your bloody mother just conditioned
Speaker 4: you listen to her.
Speaker 2: Totally, absolutely, one hundred percent. And I think it's because
Speaker 2: I want to impress my parents. The other day, I'm
Speaker 2: hosting some award ceremony coming up, and I was telling me,
Speaker 2: your fucking a know, I know because I said yes, anyway, No,
Speaker 2: it's a good gig. And I and I was telling
Speaker 2: Dad and he's like, oh god, you did you did
Speaker 2: the podcast towards at the start of the year. Are like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think I don't think I'm good at that stuff.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I don't see you was good. I
Speaker 2: don't think you're any good at it. Oh okay, he goes, No,
Speaker 2: it's genterly because i'm your dad, and I'll never see
Speaker 2: how good you are. And I'm like, I don't think
Speaker 2: that's doing what you think it's doing.
Speaker 4: What do you mean you never see how that's the opposite.
Speaker 4: Your parents are supposed to pump up your tides even
Speaker 4: if you're ship.
Speaker 2: Now they're terrified of me, like getting an eger. They
Speaker 2: want humility. Dad's like, it's all about humility. It's all
Speaker 2: about humility. He hates awards, hates praise. So I think
Speaker 2: I'm trying to chase that.
Speaker 4: You know, I can understand that, But they should also
Speaker 4: be a bit They should be your cheerleaders anyway. Fuck,
Speaker 4: I don't want to paint your parents in a bad light.
Speaker 4: Fuck they are adorable.
Speaker 2: My parents are amazing. And you guys know my parents.
Speaker 2: You are very supportive and they celebrate all my wins.
Speaker 2: But there's just little moments that when things like that
Speaker 2: happen and it's like, what are you trying to do?
Speaker 2: Dad listens to a lot of self help podcast so's
Speaker 2: you know, Prianka Chopra or someone's tiling to say whatever
Speaker 2: that done.
Speaker 4: It's such a straight man attitude too. Ah, you're doing great,
Speaker 4: you can steal with doing better. You've got a hassle,
Speaker 4: I know, I know. Fuck Anyway, the thing I'm saying
Speaker 4: no to is far less deep than that.
Speaker 3: I must say.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I've made a decision just this week actually,
Speaker 4: that I'm saying no to fucking pop plants in the house.
Speaker 4: I can't be fucked. I'm not a plant gay, I
Speaker 4: never will be. They all keep dying on me and
Speaker 4: I google how to look after whatever this plant is called.
Speaker 3: They've all got.
Speaker 4: Different needs and different light exposures, and I just can't
Speaker 4: be fucked. And plus, like I've said before, the cat's
Speaker 4: allergic to half of them. So what it's fake plants
Speaker 4: for me? Yeah, no more pot plants.
Speaker 2: I'm Mitchell, I'm all for it. We definitely took different
Speaker 2: approaches to this, but I'm now emotionally distraught after mine.
Speaker 4: But I'm glad we thought said the tone when I
Speaker 4: played Chriss One's example where she just wasn't going to
Speaker 4: pack the lunch box, like it's.
Speaker 2: Dying my own fault. It's clearly top of mine. I'm
Speaker 2: all for that. If you come to my house, all
Speaker 2: we have is fake plants. They're all from Kmart. The
Speaker 2: only issue you need to be aware of with the
Speaker 2: fakes is you need to dust them because they get
Speaker 2: dusty and you just take.
Speaker 3: An hod no that that is quite disgusting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's to be great. It almost looks like
Speaker 2: they're pollinated, Like you walk past it and bump it
Speaker 2: with your bag and then it's like looks like b movie.
Speaker 2: So just hose them and put them out and give
Speaker 2: them a little shake. But yeah, I'm all for I've
Speaker 2: got common sense.
Speaker 3: Thanks for that.
Speaker 2: No worries Jenna or anything.
Speaker 5: I think mine has to do with work as well,
Speaker 5: and not taking any breaks from work, so like I
Speaker 5: haven't had a holiday in years, because I'm always the
Speaker 5: one to say, oh yeah, I'll take on more responsibility
Speaker 5: for whoever wants to go away for survey breaks for
Speaker 5: those in radio. But you know I don't. I shouldn't
Speaker 5: do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do remember one time saying to you, how
Speaker 4: was your Christmas break, Jenna, and you were like, oh,
Speaker 4: I didn't have one because there was no one to
Speaker 4: fill in for me.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, yes, well then there's no Facebook posts.
Speaker 3: Then I guess because that's the company's fault, not yours.
Speaker 5: Yes, it's true. And like even leading back to that
Speaker 5: last week with COVID, you know, I still worked throughout it,
Speaker 5: and because I felt like I should Why should I
Speaker 5: if I'm sick.
Speaker 3: I see that fucking word. It comes back to should
Speaker 3: every time.
Speaker 5: It's the should.
Speaker 2: What's the should? Well it should? Sorry. I thought that
Speaker 2: was some sort of meditation word that you both knew
Speaker 2: from your years of yoga.
Speaker 4: I thought like, no, I'm saying that people shouldn't be
Speaker 4: driven by the words should, like oh I should do this,
Speaker 4: I should get you.
Speaker 3: It's better if you want to.
Speaker 2: Oh you know you know how people are like, oh,
Speaker 2: there's the ego and then the brogo whatever it's called.
Speaker 2: I thought there should was something else that was like
Speaker 2: that was a book. Okay, s h o u ld
Speaker 2: got it, got it?
Speaker 3: You should know that?
Speaker 2: Yes? Sorry, sorry, it's the should? All right? Well I
Speaker 2: like that the year of saying no, just in this
Speaker 2: next two weeks in Hawaii. Anytime I'm offered some sort
Speaker 2: of food, I'm saying yes, just so everyone knows.
Speaker 3: If you don't actually enjoy something, then don't bother.
Speaker 2: Amen, All right, shall I do my agim?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Go for it?
Speaker 2: Is it just me? Could you not live in a
Speaker 2: world without small talk?
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I could?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I could.
Speaker 3: It's nice occasionally though.
Speaker 2: This is why I bring it to you, guys, because
Speaker 2: I feel like you two could easily live in a
Speaker 2: world without small talk. Me, on the other hand, now
Speaker 2: it's like oxygen to me. I need small talk with
Speaker 2: any person that will listen to me, any of them,
Speaker 2: because it's so imperative. The reason I ask is because
Speaker 2: a new study came out this week that suggests we
Speaker 2: need to stop making small talk with people because it
Speaker 2: makes us dumber.
Speaker 5: Really, yes, what.
Speaker 3: Do they mean by that? Like? How does it achieve that?
Speaker 2: Okay, so, small talk we all know it's very necessary
Speaker 2: in conversations. Also, just like with people that you're not
Speaker 2: very familiar with, small talk just gets you going or
Speaker 2: gets you into a conversation. But apparently this is what
Speaker 2: the paper says. The paper says conversation is a fundamental
Speaker 2: human experience, one that is necessary to pursue interpersonal and
Speaker 2: interpersonal interpersonalized goals. Therefore, making the most out of such
Speaker 2: conversations by asking quality, intro and follow up questions is essential.
Speaker 2: Small Talk is a waste of time, is what this
Speaker 2: expert is saying. So instead of the mundane how are
Speaker 2: you and what do you do? Where there's nice wad
Speaker 2: you have for lunch? You should be asking what excites
Speaker 2: you right now? You should be asking about work and life,
Speaker 2: their upbringing and hobbies.
Speaker 3: To a complete stranger instead.
Speaker 4: I kind of agree with that because I don't have
Speaker 4: much patience for small talk. I couldn't live in a
Speaker 4: world without it. That just sounds sad. But I'll be
Speaker 4: walking around like fucking we're on green theft ordo. No
Speaker 4: one's engageable, totally, it'd be very doing that weird prostitute
Speaker 4: walk with the fact with their.
Speaker 2: Arms are really rigid. Yeah, yeah, it's very good call.
Speaker 4: But also I do feel like I kind of like
Speaker 4: to dive in the deep end a bit, like if
Speaker 4: the small talk isn't getting into the nitty gritty like
Speaker 4: that within fifteen to twenty seconds, I give up. I'm
Speaker 4: happy to sit there in silence. Yes, but if we
Speaker 4: get there, I'm like, I will absolutely fucking dig and dig.
Speaker 4: I'd love just a DNN by accident.
Speaker 2: Yes, me too. Well, this expert has given some options
Speaker 2: as to thought starters. Cut the small talk and start
Speaker 2: with this. Ready, So they want you to start with, Hey,
Speaker 2: what are you looking forward to? I mean, I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna go to Baker's Delight when I'm trying to get
Speaker 2: an Oliven Fetter scroll and go, Hi, what are you
Speaker 2: looking forward to?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: That's nice that it's your grandma's funeral in a month. Listen,
Speaker 2: can I get two Fetter and Olive scrolls?
Speaker 3: You can't open with that? That's fucking weird.
Speaker 2: Totally. What about this option? What's the most important thing
Speaker 2: I should know about you?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 5: That's stalkery.
Speaker 2: I don't care about my butcher.
Speaker 4: I don't know if this is on the list, but
Speaker 4: I remember one time I was at a funeral of
Speaker 4: all places, oh dear, and at the wake I was
Speaker 4: This is when I was a kid. I was outside
Speaker 4: and there was some lady smoking his cigarette and she's like.
Speaker 3: How are you, sweetheart?
Speaker 4: I was like, good, thanks, and the question she asked
Speaker 4: next straight after how you was, what would you be
Speaker 4: doing if you weren't here today?
Speaker 2: Oh, I like that, that's a.
Speaker 4: Really interesting question. And I was like, I can't remember
Speaker 4: the answer. Probably I'd be at school or something. But
Speaker 4: I was like, that's a great question. What would you
Speaker 4: be doing if you weren't here today? No, okay, I understand.
Speaker 4: That's good having those those conversation starters. It's also the
Speaker 4: same when you're interviewing people, and I do all the
Speaker 4: fucking time. When I don't prepare questions. You've seen me,
Speaker 4: I just.
Speaker 2: Flounder and I take about thirty seconds to ask how
Speaker 2: how they are? But those questions like actually lead to
Speaker 2: really interesting conversations. But you also need the small talk
Speaker 2: to get there.
Speaker 4: You know, I've noticed in your interviews when you're when
Speaker 4: you can't think of a question, you just don't really
Speaker 4: ask them a question.
Speaker 3: You kind of just say things at them.
Speaker 2: It's a statement, and I often make statements.
Speaker 4: You make statements. You're like, oh, so good to see
Speaker 4: you've been in the industry so long.
Speaker 2: Yes, I do, I really do. I don't think I've
Speaker 2: ever asked one question in my entire career. I'm not
Speaker 2: really an interesting that. Now I just point things out,
Speaker 2: don't I? So what else is on the list? Well,
Speaker 2: that's what I thought. I've got a list of them.
Speaker 2: Why don't I ring the local business and I see
Speaker 2: if I can call them without any small talk. Just
Speaker 2: see how it goes.
Speaker 3: No, you can't.
Speaker 4: It can't be the first thing you say. It has
Speaker 4: to be the second. Like that lady with the dari
Speaker 4: at the funeral, It was how are you? And the
Speaker 4: second question was deep? The first one has to be normal.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, I think it needs to be like
Speaker 2: a friend or someone that you do like, because if
Speaker 2: I call a news agency and I go, what's your
Speaker 2: dream in life? Doesn't make sense now. But if I
Speaker 2: call someone that we're not a really good friend that
Speaker 2: knows I'm joking, but someone in the periphery that thinks,
Speaker 2: oh well, I wonder why he's asking all this?
Speaker 4: You know, call contraceptive die from Sam. He hasn't been
Speaker 4: around for a while.
Speaker 2: Oh that's brilliant. It's called Sam. Good call. Now, Mitch,
Speaker 2: what did you I just said, good call? Shoot me
Speaker 2: at the fucking thigh.
Speaker 3: You said it like nine times last week.
Speaker 9: Now.
Speaker 2: The first couple were intentional, and I had a brain
Speaker 2: fat and I forgot all right before I hit die
Speaker 2: or Mitchell, I'm gonna what was yours? I really like
Speaker 2: that one?
Speaker 4: You just that, the lady said, I don't think the
Speaker 4: Siggy one will work because the question was what would
Speaker 4: you be doing if you weren't here today and he's
Speaker 4: not here today?
Speaker 3: That's true, that's more of a face to face one.
Speaker 2: What would be the most important thing I should know
Speaker 2: about you? Is an option?
Speaker 3: I know you already know him, so that's weird. What
Speaker 3: were the others?
Speaker 2: What excites you in life right now?
Speaker 3: That could work? Or maybe you could rephrase it a bit.
Speaker 2: Tell me something I would never guess you'd be into.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do that? That's kind of interesting.
Speaker 5: I never want to know the answer.
Speaker 3: Because Sam is such a chameleon. He can have a
Speaker 3: bitch and a wine with the gays and he can
Speaker 3: have a beer with the boys.
Speaker 2: He's kind of adaptable. What is your biggest accomplishment this week?
Speaker 2: Is good because we kind of do work together.
Speaker 3: Throw a few in there.
Speaker 2: Fuck it all right? Here we go calling contraceptive diaphram, Sam.
Speaker 2: No small talk, just to how are you?
Speaker 9: Hello?
Speaker 2: Hello? Sam? It's Mitch cheery.
Speaker 9: How are you good?
Speaker 2: Listen? What's your biggest accomplishment this week?
Speaker 9: My biggest accomplishment this week? Ah, I cleaned my house.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's the whole thing.
Speaker 9: Yeah, like it did like a proper spring clean. I
Speaker 9: feel very accomplished.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hayden, and I just got one of those four
Speaker 2: mops and I would never consider myself a mopper, but
Speaker 2: now we mop the floors and it's so like satisfying
Speaker 2: to clean.
Speaker 9: And forboard about you, mate, I feel like you've reached
Speaker 9: you know that you've reached a certain age that your
Speaker 9: teen years are far behind you. When you get excited
Speaker 9: about a mob.
Speaker 2: I know, it's actually quite depressing, isn't it. And that
Speaker 2: is your biggest accomplishment this week?
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, I feel very accomplished.
Speaker 2: Tell me something I'd never guess that you'd be into.
Speaker 9: Why why are you asking this?
Speaker 2: I'm just asking what would what would shock me that
Speaker 2: you're into?
Speaker 1: Uh uh?
Speaker 5: There.
Speaker 9: I really really like American.
Speaker 2: Football, but only I only watch it.
Speaker 9: Around Super Bowl time, but I get really into it
Speaker 9: for like a week.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that I actually did know that about you,
Speaker 2: And I also know you love like the commentary and
Speaker 2: the theater of it all.
Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you have to look forward to in
Speaker 2: the near future?
Speaker 9: Why do I feel like I'm on a job interview.
Speaker 2: Now you're on the podcast? Yeah? Generation why?
Speaker 9: Okay, no, no, no, I have to explain the me
Speaker 9: now why.
Speaker 4: Because apparently these are the questions that people should be
Speaker 4: asking in lieu of small talk. And I did worry
Speaker 4: about that that it would catch people off guard. It's
Speaker 4: too deep too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a professor in the US that wants to
Speaker 2: end small talk for good, and these are the suggestions
Speaker 2: that they've provided.
Speaker 9: I feel like it's the way you're phrase it. Though,
Speaker 9: if you were to say, oh, I'm really into this
Speaker 9: kind of thing. What's a random thing that you're into,
Speaker 9: I feel like I wouldn't have clocked it, but it was.
Speaker 9: It was. It was the way that you said it.
Speaker 9: It was a bit like in a therapy session.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yah.
Speaker 4: I feel like that was actually more awkward than small
Speaker 4: talk because every question you asked there was ten to
Speaker 4: twenty seconds of Sam going ah yeah.
Speaker 5: And whenever Sam finished his answer, there was silence.
Speaker 9: I do love a bit of small talk, more of that.
Speaker 2: See you need it. I tried to not do it
Speaker 2: and you need it. No, it's a small talk. Is
Speaker 2: in in? Thank you? Sam?
Speaker 9: Okay, there you go, a bab you're listening to?
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 2: Got something on your mind?
Speaker 5: Hit up at a couple of mitches on Instagram to
Speaker 5: get yourself on the show.
Speaker 2: All right time before and is it just you? Your
Speaker 2: chance to have an iGEM of your own, something you've
Speaker 2: noticed you hate or appreciate. You can dms and get
Speaker 2: on the show a couple of mitches, slide right in or.
Speaker 4: Don't forget the phone number? Oh for one two seven
Speaker 4: one two nine to two, send it the text.
Speaker 2: That is off. The people love that text line, don't
Speaker 2: they mean you get in text twenty four seven?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've had to put the thing on airplane mode
Speaker 4: quite a few fucking time.
Speaker 2: Oh no, have you just to shut them off?
Speaker 4: I mean love them dearly. I absolutely appreciate it. But yeah,
Speaker 4: people must listen at all hours, all different time zones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, true, true, All right, Well today we have joining
Speaker 2: us from Hobart, the wonderful Jack Collo Jack.

Speaker 3: I love fresh Meat.
Speaker 9: No, but I've been going through old episodes in between
Speaker 9: the new upload, which has been good. But honestly, I
Speaker 9: love the show and it's probably the first podcast I've
Speaker 9: actually listened to other than the Australians True Crime one.
Speaker 9: Everyone's first.

Speaker 3: Yeah, we're in the same bite, Jack. I don't fucking
Speaker 3: know what they're talking about either.
Speaker 2: We need you to give us an Is it just

Speaker 3: You brew it on?
Speaker 2: I do, yes?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 2: Hit it Bradley?
Speaker 8: Is it just me?
Speaker 9: Did your parents tell you little white lies as a
Speaker 9: kid that you've grown up as an adult and believed
Speaker 9: and then told to other adults in your life, only
Speaker 9: to be embarrassed that they're not true?
Speaker 2: Fuck?
Speaker 3: Mate?
Speaker 4: Are you that kid on the ad that was told, oh,
Speaker 4: the great Well the China was to keep the rabbits there?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 9: You know, it was funny when I said in my
Speaker 9: gym I was thinking about that ad. I was like,
Speaker 9: actually kind, but it's like literally like that, well, what
Speaker 9: lies have you been told? Okay, Well, a very particular
Speaker 9: incident that has honestly traumatized me. Shout out to Lockie,
Speaker 9: who actually recommended this podcast. That happened Champion. Anyway. I
Speaker 9: was at his house, at his parents' house, and they
Speaker 9: have horses, and we're just sitting there on the verandah,
Speaker 9: you know, very picturesque in the countryside, and I see
Speaker 9: one of the horses like lay down on the ground
Speaker 9: or whatever they do. And I turned to him and
Speaker 9: I'm like, there's something wrong with your horse. Your horse
Speaker 9: like can't get back up. And he's like, what are
Speaker 9: you going on about it? And I'm like, well, no,
Speaker 9: like once a horse sits down, it can't get back
Speaker 9: up easily, like it will die like what he's like thinking.
Speaker 9: And then anyway, the horse, I think, end up getting
Speaker 9: back up and they just like made fun of me.
Speaker 9: Lockie and his parents You're.
Speaker 3: Like, fuck me, Lockie, where's the crane? Yeah?
Speaker 9: They literally I was like so worried. I was like, oh,
Speaker 9: the tall horse, like there's something on the horse. But
Speaker 9: I was told as a kid by my dad because
Speaker 9: I asked him, I go, why do horses sleep standing up?
Speaker 9: Because like that's what they do, and he goes, oh,
Speaker 9: because once they get back down, they can't get back
Speaker 9: up again.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 9: And I've just like I've just been like, oh, okay,
Speaker 9: I've probably like heard that when I was like sticks
Speaker 9: or something, and I've just gone on in my life
Speaker 9: and just believe that.
Speaker 4: Maybe your dad actually believes that to be true. Maybe
Speaker 4: someone else told him that.
Speaker 9: It sounds like I did ask him, and he goes,
Speaker 9: I don't remember telling you that.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 9: I feel like that's a lie.
Speaker 2: Well I have one. I remember that. I've got a few. Actually,
Speaker 2: I was ghastly hard by my parents. Jack, you really
Speaker 2: bring you back. My mum would say that if you
Speaker 2: ate watermelon seeds that you would get pregnant.
Speaker 4: Pregnant, yeah, as a man.
Speaker 2: As a man. They also said if you would remember this,
Speaker 2: maybe this was just my family? Is it just me?
Speaker 2: Or reading in the dark will ruin your eyes? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did we get that?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 9: I got Yeah, I've heard that before.
Speaker 3: What about carrots give you better eyesight?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, ball shit. I eat a lot of carrots,
Speaker 2: but I don't know who's sitting across from me right now.
Speaker 9: What about like crusts, like how cross give me curly hair?
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, Oh my god, I remember. I used to
Speaker 2: love crusts and then when I hit fifteen, I got pubes.
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's true.
Speaker 3: Were there any other things that you're lying? Deceitful? Father
Speaker 3: told you? Jack?
Speaker 9: Well, yeah there is. Actually my dad works at TAFE,
Speaker 9: which is like an education thing. Yeah, we love is
Speaker 9: that like nationwide? Anyway?
Speaker 2: I went to tape.
Speaker 9: Well, there you go. But we're in like one of
Speaker 9: the workshop things and like under fluorescent lights sometimes like
Speaker 9: concrete sparkles have.
Speaker 3: You know aga.
Speaker 4: I know, yeah, I get you, yeah, like in warehouses
Speaker 4: and ship yeah yeah.
Speaker 9: But I vivially remember this. We're walking downstairs and I'm like, okay,
Speaker 9: like why I clearer in the concrete and he's like, oh,
Speaker 9: it's like people's fingernails and tonnails they fall off, and
Speaker 9: then mate, get caught in the life.
Speaker 4: I don't remember the last time my fucking toenail clippings
Speaker 4: were twinkling.
Speaker 2: It's the logic in that I've got.
Speaker 9: Grown up and everything like that is not true.
Speaker 3: See, it's such that one out yourself. You didn't have
Speaker 3: to have.
Speaker 9: Definitely one that I probably got my teen.
Speaker 2: One just hit me. One, just hit me. This is true,
Speaker 2: and I'm embarrassed. And I've never said this before. I
Speaker 2: don't even think I've told you, you know, sometimes make
Speaker 2: you tell each other stories, or you've told me that yesterday.
Speaker 3: We'll spit it out. For God's sake. I'll tell you
Speaker 3: if I've heard it.
Speaker 2: Sorry. My dad told me. I asked him point blank
Speaker 2: how a baby's made, and he said, you were but
Speaker 2: a twinkle in my eye, which I now know means
Speaker 2: it's just some fucking Disney rhyme, you know, but I
Speaker 2: thought that man that his come was in his eyes,
Speaker 2: didn't Yep?
Speaker 3: I thought, well, it happens.
Speaker 2: We've all been there, right, Jack. No, I thought like

Speaker 9: The in your eye?
Speaker 4: Yeah, and how would you ejaculate from your eyes?

Speaker 2: All at a time, sadly, all.
Speaker 4: Right, should we do Jenni's junk. We've got to do
Speaker 4: a bit of a cleanse before our Easter break.
Speaker 2: Yes, let's dive on it. Everyone.
Speaker 5: Let's take a peek at Jenner's junk, shall we.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jenne's junk is where all of our shit ideas
Speaker 4: go to die. As you know, we kick off every
Speaker 4: episode of this podcast with and is it just me?
Speaker 4: Each and if we think of one but it's a
Speaker 4: bit boring, we'll go nah, toss it aside, and then
Speaker 4: eventually we will stick a fist in Jenni's junk.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just for fun.
Speaker 2: I feel privileged to be able to see Jenis junk
Speaker 2: up close and personal. It's full, I can imagine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's just how she likes it, isn't it, Jenna?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, nice and full. That's why the house got broken
Speaker 2: into and they were searching for the junk.
Speaker 3: No, we've not entered your junk in quite some time,
Speaker 3: have we.
Speaker 5: No, No, nobody's entered my junk for a while.
Speaker 3: Really.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, so we'll just be We'll take it slow.
Speaker 5: Yeah, just see how it goes.
Speaker 2: Okay, we can.
Speaker 3: When he was out of practice, is oh.
Speaker 2: God, look she was quick to jump in.
Speaker 3: God, that's more deuce than usual in the junk today.
Speaker 2: What's that smell?
Speaker 5: Sorry?
Speaker 2: Someone eating camembert?
Speaker 5: Sorry about that anyway?
Speaker 3: Anyway, Yeah, what are you found in there?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 5: Or do you miss touching the hands of customer service workers?
Speaker 2: Listen?
Speaker 3: What There's no way I put that in the junk?
Speaker 2: No, listen. I know my gyms for the last seventeen
Speaker 2: weeks have been McDonald's drive through related. But this is
Speaker 2: real because in the funny that this didn't make the
Speaker 2: main show, this is I had. I had three customer
Speaker 2: service themed gyms that were good enough to be on
Speaker 2: the mail.
Speaker 4: What was it about this that wasn't worth actually running?
Speaker 4: And it was more junk?
Speaker 2: Okay? So I'm in my one coffee a day Era
Speaker 2: and when I have to go to go to work early,
Speaker 2: I don't have time to make it at home, so
Speaker 2: I go through mac drive through it. I do this
Speaker 2: twice a week. I get along black from macas and
Speaker 2: it's good. I means, such a habit of just like
Speaker 2: pay passing and go. Anyway, when we moved, Hayden and
Speaker 2: I found like a coin jar that we had and
Speaker 2: we like in the old house. We just put away
Speaker 2: and we have, like you know, a couple hundred bucks
Speaker 2: in gold coins. So I just put a handful and
Speaker 2: a zip block and now it's in my car and
Speaker 2: I'm like, God, just use it for macas. So I
Speaker 2: get to the drive through and I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I have coins for once. And the little brittle sixteen
Speaker 2: year old kid put out that paddle popstick with the
Speaker 2: FPOs machine on the end of it, and I just
Speaker 2: pushed it away and something came over me. I had
Speaker 2: the two dollar coin in my fingertips, and you know
Speaker 2: when you hold coins and you've got to like, you know,
Speaker 2: on the drop, so you like kind of doing that
Speaker 2: that machine claw hand thing, and you're kind of like.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, just like this, yeah, and you sort of
Speaker 3: push it into their palm.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, And then she put her hand down and
Speaker 2: it was like that painting in the louver of Jesus
Speaker 2: touching the other finger of I don't know who's doing it,
Speaker 2: but we touched and we shared a connection, very very
Speaker 2: similar to when the avatar things fuck with their tails.
Speaker 2: And I put some money in her hand and it
Speaker 2: was so someone he's never seen an avatar, what, oh,
Speaker 2: you need to watch it, because they fuck with their tails.
Speaker 2: And that is true.
Speaker 3: Jenny, you've seen well, you know how much I love
Speaker 3: fucking with tails.
Speaker 2: Their tails have tentacles in them and their tails have
Speaker 2: you neither of you ever seen James Cameron's Avatar. Oh,
Speaker 2: come on, the tails fuck and that's how they have sex.
Speaker 2: And also that's how they ride animals. It's disgusting. So
Speaker 2: they fuck with their little blue tails. But also they're like,
Speaker 2: why don't we ride this, you know, air horse? And
Speaker 2: then they put their tail in the horse's tail and
Speaker 2: it goes I'm getting it up. Sorry, fuck the drive through.
Speaker 2: I beg, you're.
Speaker 3: Getting it up. You're getting your tail like, well.
Speaker 2: I don't want to search avatar sex.
Speaker 3: Oh I've already done it at home.
Speaker 2: Oh have you?
Speaker 3: Oh that's weird.
Speaker 2: Watch Jenna.
Speaker 5: Oh no, oh wait, is that that their tail or
Speaker 5: the hair?
Speaker 2: Well, it's their hair. It's actually their ponytails, which is
Speaker 2: also their tail. I believe.
Speaker 4: God, imagine if I could fuck with my ponytail. That'd
Speaker 4: be fascinating.
Speaker 2: Oh god, poor Sean. Anyway, if you've got coins, I
Speaker 2: urge you to put them in the palm of a
Speaker 2: retail worker's hands and you'll feel like we're in yesteryear again.
Speaker 4: But don't they get a little bit caught off guard
Speaker 4: when you're not paying with car because now they used
Speaker 4: to ask cash or car, but now they just go yep.
Speaker 3: Ready to tap.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she hated it. She didn't know what was going on.
Speaker 2: She'd bit into it because it's so close to east.
Speaker 2: She thought it was a gold chucky coin. Now you're
Speaker 2: a fucking kid, that's real money.
Speaker 5: Sorry.
Speaker 4: A random side note, did I tell you that Sean
Speaker 4: was in a macas ad when he was a teenager.
Speaker 2: It's the funniest thing. I want to say.
Speaker 5: I need to see this.
Speaker 4: So if you look up on YouTube, it's a sixteen
Speaker 4: second video and it's just love my savings account.
Speaker 3: That's what the video is called.
Speaker 5: Okay, oh my god.
Speaker 2: O my god.
Speaker 4: Looks he's the one that's the first in line.
Speaker 3: At only one dollar ninety five, you won't need to
Speaker 3: dip into.
Speaker 4: The funniest part about that ad is that you hear
Speaker 4: him go thanks heaps, But apparently that was not in
Speaker 4: the script.
Speaker 3: He just can't bring himself to.
Speaker 4: Not use his manners, so it was meant to be
Speaker 4: a non speaking role, and so he's given his change.
Speaker 3: They touch his hand and.
Speaker 4: Only one this is quite a few years old, and
Speaker 4: yet they are, you know, touching hands in the ad.
Speaker 2: Wow, there you go, guys, touch your hand and it'll
Speaker 2: make your day. Yeah, that's a walk away take away
Speaker 2: from that. Now waste time?
Speaker 5: Oh okay, is it just me or cheese?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 5: How good a spare bed?
Speaker 3: That's mine? I put that in there?
Speaker 2: Oh, I agree, elaborate on that.
Speaker 4: Oh well, I just remember when I was house hunting
Speaker 4: not long ago. It was like my dream to have
Speaker 4: a spare room with a spare bed. That, in my
Speaker 4: mind was the definition of I've fucking made it like
Speaker 4: I'm an adult. Now, Mum and Dad can come and
Speaker 4: stay when they please, my friends can crash. Obviously, the
Speaker 4: rental crisis meant that I did not achieve that. However,
Speaker 4: I did buy a blow up mattress, and whenever my
Speaker 4: friend Oscar needs the crash, I'll blow up the mattress.
Speaker 3: Once he goes home.
Speaker 4: I leave that thing up for a good couple of
Speaker 4: days because I just love crashing in front of the
Speaker 4: telly on a spare mattress. And I've had some of
Speaker 4: the best night's sleep of my life on the spare mattress.
Speaker 4: There's this a fun novelty about it not being my
Speaker 4: normal bed.
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm with you. I'm so with you. I love
Speaker 2: in our new house. We have a spare room and
Speaker 2: it's shut up. No no, no, there's two incomes, so
Speaker 2: it's different, you know.
Speaker 3: It's true.
Speaker 2: I couldn't afford it on my own in this fucking
Speaker 2: market anyway, on the back of the house, so it
Speaker 2: gets all the afternoon sun where our bedroom gets the
Speaker 2: morning sun.
Speaker 3: So that's yeah.
Speaker 2: I leave for work sometimes like three in the afternoon,
Speaker 2: and like after I've done some mirrords and I come home,
Speaker 2: I have a shower, then I'll make a coffee before
Speaker 2: I leave for work, and then I'll just sit in
Speaker 2: that back groom in the spare room, and the sun
Speaker 2: is hitting the bed, and there's something about the bed.
Speaker 2: The bed's always clean because someone's not sleeping in it
Speaker 2: every night, so the sheets are always crisp and fresh,
Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, there's something about this. I love
Speaker 2: it so much. I'm with you, Oh God.
Speaker 4: One of my old apartments a couple of years ago
Speaker 4: had a west facing window, and I had the afternoon
Speaker 4: sun come in.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 4: Me and Isabella had some of the best naps in
Speaker 4: that afternoon sun.
Speaker 3: Oh god, I miss having west facing windows.
Speaker 5: I can imagine I have a west facing windows.
Speaker 2: Wow, now that's the one the criminal came in. So no,
Speaker 2: it actually is. I think you know the lucky ones.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's now got bars on it.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, its riddle good crim save for these days.
Speaker 3: Is it just me?
Speaker 5: Or do you put off making phone calls?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 3: That's also me.
Speaker 4: I'm a bit embarrassed by this because I fucking know
Speaker 4: that it's easier to cut to the chase with a
Speaker 4: phone call rather than waiting for a text reply or
Speaker 4: an email reply whatever. And yet if I have to
Speaker 4: do it, I'll put it off for ages. It'll be
Speaker 4: on my to do list for days now.
Speaker 2: I love making phone calls because I'm the one that
Speaker 2: is deciding to do it, and I'm in the mood
Speaker 2: to do it. But I do not like accepting phone
Speaker 2: calls if I'm not in the head.
Speaker 4: I'm not talking about friends and shit like friends, no worries,
Speaker 4: I'm talking about phone calls you have to make. I
Speaker 4: will literally go to a different medical center if I
Speaker 4: need a GP appointment because they do online bookings, because
Speaker 4: I can't be fucked making the phone call yeah, I'm
Speaker 4: the same.
Speaker 2: I'm all about phone calls. I love it so much.
Speaker 2: I'm immediate, you know, I demand. I'm a ca when
Speaker 2: it comes to a phone call.
Speaker 3: Oh god, I put it off for so long. I
Speaker 3: was so embarrassed.
Speaker 4: The other day I had call hairdresser on my to
Speaker 4: do list for four days.
Speaker 3: I just kept putting it off and off.
Speaker 6: Every day.
Speaker 4: I'm like, no, I don't have the brain real estate
Speaker 4: to make that phone call today. Once I finally musted
Speaker 4: up the courage to make that phone call, I ended
Speaker 4: the call, looked at the phone.
Speaker 3: It was a fucking nineteen second phone call.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: See, And I'd put it off for four days.
Speaker 2: You speaking of jaa good to do list? I need
Speaker 2: a good to do list app? Do people have apps?
Speaker 4: I'd just do it in my phone notes because I
Speaker 4: realized that on the notes you can now do a checklist.
Speaker 4: There's a little icon there with the tick, so I
Speaker 4: still get the thrill of ticking it off.
Speaker 2: You're kidding, I.
Speaker 3: Never kid when to my kid.
Speaker 2: Very true, dus never I really want one. It's probably
Speaker 2: a not off the cloud discussion.
Speaker 4: Hey, if there's a fancier to do list app, fucking
Speaker 4: let us know idiots.
Speaker 2: Yeah please, I need it, guys. Yeah, moving on, No
Speaker 2: time to continue discussing that.
Speaker 5: Really, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Oh you fit your whole fistian A good girl.
Speaker 5: You thank you? Is it just me? Or there's nobody
Speaker 5: care about your wedding hashtag?
Speaker 2: I mean, for fuck's sake, no one uses it, not
Speaker 2: one person. No one puts up a photo on their
Speaker 2: grid of your wedding day. Ilf.
Speaker 3: I've actually been to a wedding that has a hashtag all.
Speaker 2: The weddings I go to. And maybe it's because I'm
Speaker 2: from the Shire, which is a very basic white part
Speaker 2: of Sydney, but these white heterosexual couples love a fucking hashtag.
Speaker 4: I think it's so that if they want to see
Speaker 4: their guest photos, they can look at that hashtag. So
Speaker 4: it's not with the intent of going viral. It's just
Speaker 4: to collate all the photos together. But you're right, I
Speaker 4: don't know who's actually using it.
Speaker 2: All right, Mitchell, give me two random couples and I'm
Speaker 2: going to search that hashtag right now, and we're going
Speaker 2: to see what free get married?
Speaker 4: What about like Jade and Tim hashtag?
Speaker 2: Oh here we go, Jade and Tim's wedding twenty sixteen
Speaker 2: comes up when I search it fewer than one hundred posts.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, guys, we've got Jade and Tim's wedding.
Speaker 2: What is it? Jade? And on Instagram hashtag Jade and
Speaker 2: Tim's Wedding twenty sixteen.
Speaker 3: It says it's fifty eight posts.
Speaker 2: There's Jade, not Jay Jade big day, she looks phenomenal.
Speaker 5: And did Jade's friend post this?
Speaker 2: Tracy forty two posts?
Speaker 3: I see people use it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, you know I'm going to follow that hashtag.
Speaker 2: I've just hit follow. I'm really happy for them, Jade
Speaker 2: and Tim.
Speaker 5: I hope they're doing well.
Speaker 3: Yeah. See, now put yourself.
Speaker 4: If you were fucking Jade or Tim, you would love
Speaker 4: going and looking at this hashtag and seeing what everyone's
Speaker 4: up to.
Speaker 2: Good call, you know what call? Fair call, fair call?
Speaker 5: That is very true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really all right.
Speaker 3: Back in the dunk.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's dirty.
Speaker 3: That's really your fault.
Speaker 2: You say that as if we've done it.
Speaker 5: Sorry, okay, whatever is it just me? Or should everyone
Speaker 5: have a herb garden?
Speaker 2: It's another week?
Speaker 4: Me.
Speaker 3: Well, I've already vowed in this episode to not be
Speaker 3: a pot plant. Gay Son just.
Speaker 2: You so easy to use. I have a herb garden. Now,
Speaker 2: name a herb, Jenna Basil, got it? Mitch, name of herb?
Speaker 2: I don't know, don't have that one, got it? Coriander? Yep,
Speaker 2: Parsley Continental. Really we've got chili plant?
Speaker 4: What about the car? Herbie fully loaded? Now, I don't
Speaker 4: have a fucking herb.
Speaker 2: I don't have the room in the garden.
Speaker 3: For herby to his friends.
Speaker 2: No, yes, I've got a herb garden. And it's just
Speaker 2: so nice. This morning, I'm coffee and I was at
Speaker 2: the back of my pajamas watering my herb garden, drinking
Speaker 2: my coffee. It was beautiful.
Speaker 4: We have spoken about this before, and I said the
Speaker 4: same thing. I can't believe we're having this conversation.
Speaker 3: At this age. Yeah, it's really quite depressed.
Speaker 4: And now that you've got the theater of the mind
Speaker 4: with the pajamas in the backyard, I'm like, oh, wow,
Speaker 4: you in your unit, I'm like, fuck, you really are
Speaker 4: sixty years old, aren't you know?
Speaker 2: I know? Hayden was working from home on the back
Speaker 2: table and I said, are you using a Coster?
Speaker 3: Said, have you got a photo of this bloody herb?
Speaker 3: Garden that I keep hearing it.
Speaker 4: But texted to you Mitchell, h Okay, there's no need
Speaker 4: to raise You've always thatt me mate, anyway. Tell me, though,
Speaker 4: tell me, is it very consistent? Like all the herbs
Speaker 4: need the same amount of water, that same soil, same
Speaker 4: exposure to sun. Like not one of them, one of
Speaker 4: them is not going to die because you did something wrong.
Speaker 2: No, exactly, They'll all live.
Speaker 3: Are they kind of cute to look at?
Speaker 5: Though?
Speaker 3: What does it look like a herb garden?
Speaker 2: It's all very green?
Speaker 5: They look cute.
Speaker 2: But the thing is, I'm not attached to them, and
Speaker 2: I haven't made them my personality. It's more so just.
Speaker 3: Well you've brought it up twice in the podcast.
Speaker 2: Is this the second time?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I did say that.
Speaker 2: What day is it? Next time you come over to
Speaker 2: my house and you enjoy your RIGATONI and you go, god,
Speaker 2: it tastes fresh, I'll go, yeah, because that was growing
Speaker 2: with my own blood, sweat and tears.
Speaker 3: Have you ever actually used your own herbs and cooking?
Speaker 2: Not once? Never?
Speaker 5: Okay? Is it just me? Or do you buy two
Speaker 5: of everything when you're doing groceries?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's me?
Speaker 4: Explain well, I fucking hate running out of stuff, and
Speaker 4: so especially in the bathroom. I've got a storage tub
Speaker 4: under my actual bathroom cabinet, which is the spare of everything.
Speaker 4: So once I have to reach into that and pick
Speaker 4: out the spare, it goes on the shopping list and
Speaker 4: I'll get two toothpastes, two mouthwashed, two of literally everything,
Speaker 4: and it saves my ass because I hate running out
Speaker 4: of shit.
Speaker 2: That's his genius. I have only recently started doing that
Speaker 2: because I've realized how grumpy I get when I'm out
Speaker 2: of something. It really fucks me off. So now I've
Speaker 2: got two I've got and you're right, it changes your life.
Speaker 2: I mean, not everything, you know, not for everything, Like
Speaker 2: I don't have a backup Hayunda just in case. But
Speaker 2: it's like for shampoos and for toothpastes, you know, and rice.
Speaker 4: But I feel like there's there's two types of people
Speaker 4: in the world because Sean's the opposite. He has got
Speaker 4: in his shower so many empty fucking bottles, so he
Speaker 4: runs out. Not only does he not replace it, he
Speaker 4: doesn't even remove it. And so I was having a
Speaker 4: shower at his place and I like came out of
Speaker 4: the shower and I said to him, which one of
Speaker 4: these bottles is soap? Because none of them even said soap.
Speaker 4: It was all really vague shit like body milk and
Speaker 4: all this shit, and it was all empty anyway.
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm so confused. There was no dishwashing liquid,
Speaker 3: no brand.
Speaker 4: I was like, if something runs out, aren't you not
Speaker 4: compelled to replace it?
Speaker 3: He's just so unfazed.
Speaker 5: Yeah like that as well.
Speaker 2: Really, now I have to get rid of it. Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2: I can't live like that.
Speaker 5: Now. I've got a lot of shampoo and conditioner.
Speaker 2: Or in your life.
Speaker 4: No I get I'm so excited when I ran out
Speaker 4: of something because I'm like, I've got a spare that's smart.
Speaker 2: Now, I don't. I can't believe Sean, considering he's an
Speaker 2: actor and he's been in he published commercials. That shocks me.
Speaker 3: Well, considering that it's quite meticulous and crisp in every
Speaker 3: other way, I can't believe it's so slack when it
Speaker 3: comes to products and shit.
Speaker 2: Oh shit, what it's tones an eye? What tons and
Speaker 2: eyes here? I'm about to interview tons aday. Oh she's
Speaker 2: running early turns and ice here. Everyone, we're gonna put
Speaker 2: her on now we're gonna have to get out of here. Sorry, guys.
Speaker 3: No, we'll come back, do your interview and we'll.
Speaker 2: Come back FOI tones running early.
Speaker 3: I dare you to.
Speaker 4: Leave my fader up the whole time, and during your interview,
Speaker 4: I'll just randomly laugh.
Speaker 3: Where is that coming from?
Speaker 2: No, we did that with five seconds of Summer and
Speaker 2: that was when Jenna was in a bin and we
Speaker 2: didn't have enough time to get her out, So Jenna
Speaker 2: I interviewed five seconds of summer while Jenna was hiding
Speaker 2: in a wheelie bin.
Speaker 4: Oh you know, because this was a zoom interview and
Speaker 4: the outputs so what they were seeing on their end
Speaker 4: on their laptop was you. And just to fuck with you,
Speaker 4: I went outside and switched the output to Jenna in
Speaker 4: the bin for like five seconds to see for five
Speaker 4: seconds of summer if you like, to see if they'd react.
Speaker 4: And they didn't, which is quite disappointing being there on
Speaker 4: a zoom interview with the radio station and it cuts
Speaker 4: to a woman in a bin.
Speaker 2: You look like a racket. I gotta go. Sorry, Tones
Speaker 2: is here, so when little brac we'll be back. All right, Sorry,
Speaker 2: back everybody? Yep?
Speaker 3: How was the tones?
Speaker 2: And She was actually lovely, so was I. They were
Speaker 2: really they she was very sweet, truly, I'd never met her,
Speaker 2: but really didn't you? No, but that's what she said.
Speaker 2: She said to the car right over. She's like, I'm
Speaker 2: so excited because she feels like like we've had such
Speaker 2: good interviews. And then they're like, you've never met Mitch
Speaker 2: And she was shocked too.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, it's not your first time interviewing her,
Speaker 4: but face to face, first time, face to face.
Speaker 3: You know what she said?
Speaker 2: She said, can you keep up the Hayden content? She
Speaker 2: finds it hilarious.
Speaker 3: What you're just tormenting your gay factor?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, she loves the hating content, so I'll get back
Speaker 2: to ridiculing him. Jess Malboy didn't say that last week
Speaker 2: when I spoke to her homophobic.
Speaker 3: I noticed No, Actually I won't say that. I was saying, no,
Speaker 3: I can't, it's so rude.
Speaker 2: What is it?
Speaker 4: Have you noticed that Jess Malboys says a lot of
Speaker 4: fucking words but doesn't say anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she beats around the bush. She's beautiful.
Speaker 5: Oh, I love her.
Speaker 2: Can I just say that's a great thing for someone
Speaker 2: who is interviewing her to have because sometimes you talk
Speaker 2: to people and they just stop talking. But Jess, you
Speaker 2: ask her the time and you end up on geopolitical
Speaker 2: conflicts in Ukraine.
Speaker 3: What about the listener who were like, what is she?
Speaker 3: Where is she going with this?
Speaker 2: Did you hear my interview with her?
Speaker 3: I saw a little bit.
Speaker 4: On Instagram, but I was more referring to her on
Speaker 4: the Australian Idol finale.
Speaker 2: Okay, what happened?
Speaker 4: She just went round in circles and was saying all
Speaker 4: this vague shit and it made no sense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's passionate. Anyway, back into the juant police.
Speaker 5: No, no, there's no more.
Speaker 2: Oh you're done?
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, Well why do we bother poor thing? The
Speaker 3: whole show that we were out of dunk? Anyway, we
Speaker 3: can move on?
Speaker 6: Sorry?
Speaker 2: Is it just me?
Speaker 5: Make sure you leave a review on your podcast app.
Speaker 2: If you don't, you're a little bitch. Okay. A couple
Speaker 2: of weeks ago on the show, we started something new.
Speaker 2: Mitch and I decided to chat pop culture moments that
Speaker 2: live rent free inside your head.
Speaker 4: I've got many, many, many stow it up in here
Speaker 4: for no good reason. It's wasting good brain real estate exactly.
Speaker 2: That's why We talk about it because these are things
Speaker 2: that take up space in our brain. We really wish
Speaker 2: they didn't, but they're those thoughts that pop into your
Speaker 2: mind when you're driving and you just laugh. Remember Remember
Speaker 2: when Wendy Williams collapsed on set dressed as the Empire
Speaker 2: State Building.
Speaker 4: No, the Statue of Liberty, Liberty, and she just did
Speaker 4: monologue collapse, took about nine minutes to fall to the
Speaker 4: ground and she's okay.
Speaker 2: By the way, I actually think it was faked. But
Speaker 2: that's an example of pop culture moments that live rent
Speaker 2: in my head. I will never forget that moment.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did one a couple of weeks ago. It's
Speaker 3: your turn, Teal, my turn.
Speaker 2: I've got three, I've collated three. They're all kinds of similar,
Speaker 2: But to be honest with you, I'm going to start
Speaker 2: with something that is similar to the Wendy Williams situation.
Speaker 2: Tyra Banks. This was an iconic moment from America's Next
Speaker 2: Top Model. Tyra Banks decides to create the ultimate drama.
Speaker 2: This was at the height of when reality shows were
Speaker 2: really starting to catch on. She's having a conversation with
Speaker 2: some of the contestants and to keep the drama at
Speaker 2: an all time high. She decides to pass out, except
Speaker 2: she fakes.
Speaker 3: It was that fake. I've seen the video of Tyra
Speaker 3: Banks fainting. I think she faked it.
Speaker 2: She pretends it's in season six, episode six, they were
Speaker 2: doing improvo classes at the Gramblings Theater in La which
Speaker 2: is where I've studied by the way, I've been there.
Speaker 2: Of course. Famously, Tyra comes to visit the girls, but
Speaker 2: he's acting exhausted. So she's coming in and she's going, oh,
Speaker 2: I'm so tired ahead of his challenge, and everyone believes her,
Speaker 2: and then she pretends to fall to the ground to
Speaker 2: teach them how to improvise. I've got the audio.
Speaker 3: It's very Oh my god, listen to this.
Speaker 5: I've been working so hard. I'm so tired of you guys.
Speaker 5: So I'm so sorry you guys.
Speaker 3: I don't mean all week in front of you, but
Speaker 3: I'm just so light headed.
Speaker 2: She stands up.
Speaker 3: Oh god, I'm right.
Speaker 5: Today. I love everyone going Tyral.
Speaker 3: Terra, please fuck.
Speaker 4: I was today years old when I found out that
Speaker 4: she was acting. I've seen that in the form of
Speaker 4: a meme many times. I thought it was just over
Speaker 4: the top, like Wendy in a way, yeah, fuck, and
Speaker 4: she was faking it. Have you seen on TikTok that
Speaker 4: a lot of people are saying that, God, America's got
Speaker 4: not America's got talent, America's next time model has not
Speaker 4: aged well, Like it's a really fucking toxic show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, let's move on to number two. Hillary Duff.
Speaker 2: We all know and love Hillary Duff. Of course, Lizzie
Speaker 2: McGuire like a naughty's legend, like she was big in
Speaker 2: the two thousands, and Gordy, God, I wanted them to fuck.
Speaker 2: I wonder if they ever did.
Speaker 3: They would have if Disney had let it go ahead.
Speaker 2: Good call. Actually yeah, they would have fucked. And she
Speaker 2: would have been like, you're gay, Junie. What's his name?
Speaker 2: Rudy cool, Gordy. Sorry.
Speaker 4: Remember they were going to do a reboot and then
Speaker 4: Disney pulled the pin on it. Actually no, Hillary pulled
Speaker 4: the pin on it because she was doing a reboot
Speaker 4: of Lizzie McGuire in her thirties, and basically Hillary Duff
Speaker 4: wanted Lizzy maguire to be a huge slut and Disney
Speaker 4: were like, na, Na, that's that's not family friendly, and
Speaker 4: she goes bro. She's thirty now she's a who it's
Speaker 4: fine and so yeah, no, they clashed and it never
Speaker 4: went ahead.
Speaker 2: Well, listen, Hillary's been in films and TV shows for
Speaker 2: quite a while. But one lesson known gig that Hillary
Speaker 2: did was she ended homophobia.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I know what this is. That's not
Speaker 4: less than known. This is the best thing she's ever done.
Speaker 2: This is her magnum opus. In two thousand and eight,
Speaker 2: Hillary Duff ended homophobia. She teamed up with a campaign
Speaker 2: that was put on by the American government. It was
Speaker 2: called knock it Off. That's what the campaign was called.
Speaker 4: This was at the time when everyone would use oh
Speaker 4: that's so gay, just casually in conversation.
Speaker 3: Everyone in school. I remember it.
Speaker 4: They'd use it to describe a bad thing. And so
Speaker 4: Hillary Duff put a fucking stop to that herself.
Speaker 2: She did the government. Sorry. The initiative was called Think
Speaker 2: Before you Speak. Wonder Sykes was in it. They were
Speaker 2: trying to champion lgbt QIA awareness around how you talk
Speaker 2: about your queer friends. Anyway, this is the commercial that
Speaker 2: Hillary start in Think before you Speak?
Speaker 3: Do you like this top so gay?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 10: That's to day.
Speaker 6: You know, you really shouldn't see that. See what we'll
Speaker 6: see that something's gay and you mean it's bad.
Speaker 11: It's insulting.
Speaker 6: Every time something was bad, everybody said, ah, that's so
Speaker 6: girl wearing a skirt as a top. Oh those are
Speaker 6: cute Jeansuff when you say that's so gay, do you
Speaker 6: realize what you say?
Speaker 7: Knuck it off?
Speaker 2: Oh what, that's my favorite heart? Knucket half ended homophobia
Speaker 2: in forty six seconds.
Speaker 3: And then she went to bed that night and goes, right,
Speaker 3: what are I end tomorrow?
Speaker 2: I read somewhere that the night before summer bing Laden
Speaker 2: was killed. She actually thought, I'm going to stop him tomorrow. Okay,
Speaker 2: number one. This is some Australian culture that I think
Speaker 2: has gone global. Back to America's Next Top Model. Think
Speaker 2: back to the days when Australia's Next Top Model was
Speaker 2: on our TV.
Speaker 5: Oh I know this one.
Speaker 3: I didn't have a Fox tell so I never actually
Speaker 3: got to watch it.
Speaker 2: Yes, well this was this was massive. People really got
Speaker 2: around this show and it was really big. They'd win
Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars, they got it harp as bizarre
Speaker 2: shoot a modeling contract like they won a lot. And
Speaker 2: Sarah Murdoch was the host of this season. This was
Speaker 2: a live finale in front of an audience of two
Speaker 2: thousand people. There were two people in the finale, two
Speaker 2: people up to win. This was the moment where they'd
Speaker 2: got the final votes and Sarah has an earpiece in
Speaker 2: and she's clearly gone the winner is. Then that they
Speaker 2: feed her who the winner is. She gets it wrong

Speaker 3: Because you told me? Oh god, it was probably a

Speaker 3: Remember that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were bowd and Gate.
Speaker 3: No, it was just.
Speaker 4: COVID and we couldn't go home for ESA, so we
Speaker 4: did an Easter episode where we're all from home, and
Speaker 4: you told me that I would be the best man
Speaker 4: because I'm organized as fuck.
Speaker 2: You are. Actually, yeah, I stand by that. Look, I
Speaker 2: don't I don't rescind that at all. Yeah, you'd be
Speaker 2: in charge of the party. You'd be heading up my
Speaker 2: two sisters. But the thing is now I have to
Speaker 2: invite my brother in law, which I actually like, I
Speaker 2: really like him, but he invited me, so now by
Speaker 2: law I have to invite him.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Also my cousin Drew.
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean he's the best one.
Speaker 2: No, he's not gonna be the best man. He'll be
Speaker 2: a groomsman.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he'll be my bitch.
Speaker 2: If you're he will be your bitch. If you're asked
Speaker 2: to be in someone's party, do you then have to

Speaker 4: I mean, really, it's up to you. Obviously, I've never
Speaker 4: been fucking married.
Speaker 3: I know. Did you wonder? I know?

Speaker 4: in a bucket and then went bargaret. It was so
Speaker 4: sloppy and wet and foul. My beautiful pizza expectation was
Speaker 4: not met.
Speaker 3: I was furious.

Speaker 4: one just felt like a hazard.
Speaker 2: Oh sometimes you eat like Domino's pizza and the oil
Speaker 2: is horrific.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, you know, a good middle ground. It
Speaker 4: doesn't you know, it's a guilty pleasure but doesn't feel

Speaker 4: they've speculated that you, Cheery are going into the jungle.
Speaker 4: You Jenna, are going into the jungle for I'm a celeb.
Speaker 4: Not one person has said I reckon. Mitchell Kombs is
Speaker 4: going in true like that's out of the realm.
Speaker 2: God'd be very offended if I were you too, But
Speaker 2: you know they're called idiots for a reason.
Speaker 4: We love them dearly, but fuck not the sharpest spanner
Speaker 4: in the shed.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Now, I think they just know that I'm dumb enough
Speaker 2: this is Welcome to the Jungle to say yes to it,
Speaker 2: because I say yes to everything. As learned in this podcast,
Speaker 2: true Jenna is peer pressed into anything yes, true, and Mitch,
Speaker 2: you just be like, no, I don't need to go
Speaker 2: to the jungle. I can pose one instant story and
Speaker 2: get as many views as you dicks get on that shot.

Speaker 4: not gagging to do that. No, like swimming with snakes
Speaker 4: and whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, i'd do it. I'd do the jungle.
Speaker 4: I know that it's kind of easier said than done,
Speaker 4: but I actually feel like I could cope just fine
Speaker 4: in those weird situations where they like put you in
Speaker 4: a bloody coffin full of cockroaches and whatever.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty good at disassociating.
Speaker 5: I could do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wouldn't be I wouldn't actually give them the
Speaker 4: reaction they want.
Speaker 3: The producers be furious.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be there going at them.
Speaker 3: I'd just be there like.
Speaker 2: Yeah and you on that. I wouldn't have a real
Speaker 2: I don't Bugs and cretins don't freak me out.
Speaker 3: You know they do if they catch me off guard.
Speaker 4: But if I'm putting a coffin and I'm told you're
Speaker 4: going to be covered in cockroaches, I've got time to
Speaker 4: mentally prepare.
Speaker 2: You said, babe, we do this in season two. Mate,
Speaker 2: Now what are you all doing for our holiday? Like
Speaker 2: deep on a deeper level. I and know I've all
Speaker 2: discussed it, but what are we actually doing. We're gonna

Speaker 2: Jungle is work for you? That is what Jenna runs
Speaker 2: the tweets for the Ugande in African society.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she does the u caan't in African society.
Speaker 3: That's what they called it, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I did see. I thought no wonder. I'm getting so
Speaker 2: many messages ask if I'm going to the jungle.
Speaker 8: They go, Vista, He's bigger, Vaninian all we could fit
Speaker 8: on this continent, best, larger than life entertainer.
Speaker 2: We love the jungle. I do a good impression of that.
Speaker 3: I really do. Hypothetically, if I.
Speaker 4: Was to be cast and I'm a celebrity, get me
Speaker 4: out of here, what would my clue be in that voiceover?
Speaker 10: Oh good, cool, He's gotten more influence than an African elder.
Speaker 10: Social media sensation lands in Uguana July fourteenth.
Speaker 3: What about Jenna?
Speaker 1: Not even the high is interested in body? Vista and
Speaker 1: ky paper thin woman. That's so mean?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, mine was mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, self deprecating is a bit different.
Speaker 2: They yell them, they yell them.
Speaker 8: The giraffes will love our female social media star.
Speaker 2: He's that a clue for Jenna? She's tall?
Speaker 3: I don't think she's that tall?
Speaker 5: Is she not that tall?
Speaker 3: Am I taller than you? Jenna?
Speaker 5: I feel like we're similar.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm just going to bring up one of
Speaker 3: our photos. Okay, yeah, I'm taller than her. Name said, I'm.
Speaker 5: Tall, Jessica man boy.
Speaker 2: Watch out lions. All this pop Princess old chew, you're
Speaker 2: here off.
Speaker 3: Instead of calling her no nonsense, you call her no
Speaker 3: no nonsense.
Speaker 5: Look lover.
Speaker 3: But fuck, she's sweet and she means well. She just
Speaker 3: doesn't make sense.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to watch The Jungle.
Speaker 4: Can you please go to the Instagram account for your
Speaker 4: radio show, The Pickup and look at that video of
Speaker 4: Jess on the show the other day. Another example where
Speaker 4: you didn't actually ask a question, but she also didn't
Speaker 4: answer it. It was just her talking at you about nothing.
Speaker 4: And there's one funny moment where it cuts to your
Speaker 4: co host Britt and she kind of goes hmm to
Speaker 4: agree with what Jess said. But I know Britt was
Speaker 4: thinking h what.
Speaker 6: Quickly.
Speaker 3: It wasn't even deep. She was just saying things.
Speaker 2: I know, we think that's amazing. But you paved the
Speaker 2: way for a young queer indigenous boy to win this show.
Speaker 3: He really did.
Speaker 11: I got to speak to him earlier today. And I've
Speaker 11: always mentioned to youth any kind of when I'm doing
Speaker 11: youth pros, it's really about storytelling and being able to
Speaker 11: turn into yourself. Who are you, you know, where you
Speaker 11: come from, what you've learned. And then there's the bigger
Speaker 11: outside world of that. But he's such a sweet Britain artist,
Speaker 11: and they all are, you know, and I think once
Speaker 11: they leave that, I think it's really up to them
Speaker 11: to create those choices.
Speaker 7: It takes time, you know.
Speaker 11: I'm still discovering where I fit in into my own
Speaker 11: kind of world, particularly with music, and still being okay
Speaker 11: with that and not being too hard on ourselves.
Speaker 4: Okay, so just tell me, Mitchell, very simple question. What
Speaker 4: was that point.
Speaker 2: That she's always been supportive to youth?
Speaker 3: Jenna? Did you pick that up?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 2: She lost me.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry. I love her that, you know.
Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong.
Speaker 4: Bitch can sing, love her music, love her personality. But
Speaker 4: sometimes when I hear interviews, I'm like, what did.
Speaker 3: You just say?
Speaker 2: We've just a break anyway, I've got to go, everybody,
Speaker 2: I've got a fight to catch, love you all.
Speaker 3: I have to run away forty eight hours. What do
Speaker 3: you do?
Speaker 4: We're at that point in the podcast again where he
Speaker 4: just gets distracted on the computer, so actually paying attention
Speaker 4: to us.

Speaker 2: I'm going now. Goodbye to all, Thank you for listening,
