1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Well, hello, fancy sing me here? Right? My name's Art Simone.

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 2: And because you've clearly got such great taste in podcasts,

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: I reckon you'd probably like my show. It's called Concealed

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 2: with Arts, Simone. Want to know what it's all about?

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,319
Speaker 2: Why don't you take a listen? I'll see you at

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 2: the other side.

7
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm back.

8
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: Yes, it is me Art Simone, and I think it

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: has been far too long since I've been in your

10
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 2: e holes. So I have returned, and with me, I

11
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: have brought along more fascinating and peculiar people. So together

12
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 2: we can uncover the weird ways seemingly normal people make money,

13
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 2: spend their spare time, or even the big secrets they kept.

14
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: Hidden until now.

15
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: This is Concealed with Me, Art Simone, let's get to it.

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: Bring me out.

17
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 3: Guess Hi. My name is Emma.

18
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 4: I run a successful remedial massage business. I'm a sole practitioner.

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 4: I also used to be an intensive care cutting your

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 4: thoracic nurse for many years.

21
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 3: I live in the Suburbs. I have two kids.

22
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 4: I'm actually in a blended family, so I make that

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 4: six kids. But Art actually knows me, but would not

24
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 4: recognize me if she saw me.

25
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, hello Emma, how are you going?

26
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 3: Thank you?

27
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: Ark the mystery, the mystery, I may know you. Yes,

28
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 2: So remedial, massage, practition person, practitioner, sole person, all the above,

29
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: all of that. Remedial that means like fixing things with massage, right,

30
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: it does. Yeah, I'm a bit dumb, So I just

31
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 2: like that.

32
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,919
Speaker 3: No, everybody asked, what is remedial? What's the difference.

33
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're not doing, like you know, massage is

34
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: in that dark little venue that I walked past with

35
00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 2: the red light out the front.

36
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: You're doing things in which you can help people.

37
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 3: That's right, and you can claim on your health.

38
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: Oh god, that's good. Actually, that's good. What's your favorite

39
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: thing to massage?

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 4: I would say probably shoulders.

41
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: I'll give you a nice clean.

42
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: Answer there, shoulders. Okay, just thriting that down. This could

43
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: be a clue. This could be a clue, shoulders.

44
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: And you used to be a nurse in at Rasko.

45
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 3: With hearts and those.

46
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 2: So you can nursing with heart's intensive care. What got

47
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 2: you out of it? Too many hearts? Too much love?

48
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 4: Well, the other thing that you'd know me for, I

49
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 4: would dovetail the two of them. So I eventually got

50
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 4: out of nursing because I'd been out of it for

51
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 4: probably about five years, and I had to do a

52
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 4: refresher course and it was going to cost me ten

53
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 4: thousand dollars and I went, Now, hence why I am

54
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 4: now a medial massage therapy?

55
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 2: Yes, speaking of are you and your massage remedial massage uniform?

56
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 2: At the moment, I wasn't sure when you walked in

57
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: because you look like you've come straight from work?

58
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: Is that correct?

59
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: Or do you just wear this? You just go to Cole's?

60
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 2: You like to put it on? Is it part of

61
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 2: your advertising? You put it on to go walk around Coles?

62
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 3: And I came straight from work.

63
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 1: Okay, so it looks like a nursing top.

64
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: It does. It's the hospital scrubs.

65
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 2: Yes, but blue hospital scrubs. Your hair's tied back. You're

66
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: all prim and proper and ready to help remedy some shoulders.

67
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 3: That's right.

68
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: Okay.

69
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: Now, what I'm going to do is ask you three questions,

70
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: and from the answers to those three questions, I have

71
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: to determine what it is you're concealing from me.

72
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 3: May the odds be ever in your favor.

73
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: Okay, with all the information put together, right, we've got

74
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: remedial message, we've got shoulders, we've got six kids, blended family,

75
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: nurse hearts, and apparently I may know you.

76
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, I think you might even love me.

77
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: I might love you. Oh my goodness, adore me.

78
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: I might know you might love This is so it's

79
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 2: so kooky. This is like what I met a meet

80
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: and greet and I meet someone and they're like, we've

81
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 2: met three times before. You don't remember me. I'm like, ma'am,

82
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Okay, You're just another person at the moment. Okay,

83
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 2: I meet a lot of people really lovely, but I don't.

84
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: I don't remember you. I'm sorry.

85
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: Okay. Have I met you at a meet and greet before?

86
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: No, not that I'm aware of.

87
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: All right, let's get that out of that way. Okay,

88
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 2: first question, do you have any pets?

89
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 3: I do. I have two dogs and a cat.

90
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: Okay, what are their names?

91
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 3: Buddy Maker and Ziggy?

92
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: Oh my god, my car was called Ziggy because their

93
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 2: number plate was z HD. But she just went out

94
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 2: to pasture.

95
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 3: I had to upgrade.

96
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: I know, little Blue Yaris is gone. No more.

97
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 2: Question number two, Yes, what vegetable do you most align with?

98
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 3: A vegetable would have to be a carrot.

99
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: A carrot, and what do you like about a carrot?

100
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: What functions?

101
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: Crunchy?

102
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, crunchy. That's so you're more of a raw

103
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: carrot rather than a coo.

104
00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: Okay, well you can eat them cooked.

105
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love a cooked carrot, baked carrot, and it

106
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 4: is full of vitamin CI.

107
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 2: Okay, stop selling me the carrots. It's fine, fine. And

108
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 2: the third question is do you have an alter ego?

109
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: If so, tell me about about them. What's their personality?

110
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 3: Yes?

111
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: Absolutely, Cheeky gets away with anything, completely inclusive of everybody,

112
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 4: loves everybody, and naughty as all get out and non

113
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 4: stop talking.

114
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: This is really hard this week. Okay, I'm going to

115
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 2: talk it out all right. So radial massage used to

116
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: be a nerve's work with the hearts. Likes to touch shoulders,

117
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 2: six kids, two dogs, and a cat, ziggy car.

118
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: That's my thing.

119
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 2: Carrots, crunchy and cheeky gets away inclusive, naughty. Oh Emma,

120
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: this is a hard one. And I may know you somehow,

121
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: do Okay. All that's coming to mind is, so there's

122
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: this man that walks around in Melbourne with a giant carrot.

123
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 2: He's the carrot Man and he has a giant carrot

124
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: and he just shows up all the time and walks

125
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 2: into venues and has his carrot. No one knows why,

126
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: except for the fact that he just says it makes

127
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: people feel good. So maybe, just maybe because you're in Sydney,

128
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: maybe you were the Sydney equivalent of carrot Purson. Is

129
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: it a carrot man, your carrot woman? Maybe that's maybe

130
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: that's who you are. Are you, Emma? Are you a

131
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: carrot woman?

132
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 3: I would love to be, but I'm not. No, I'm not.
