Speaker 2: all over socials.
Speaker 4: It is a man who's posted a video and he's
Speaker 4: mispronouncing a word that I'd say is pretty commonplace, especially
Speaker 4: in Australia. It's a word that I know you've said, Laura,
Speaker 4: I've said people listening will know this word.
Speaker 3: It's it's always so embarrassing when you accidentally mispronounced a
Speaker 3: word and then you feel really stupid.
Speaker 2: Definitely.
Speaker 4: So that's why the game show music is playing, because
Speaker 4: I've turned it into a quiz. I've got a bunch
Speaker 4: of mispronunciations. It is your job to tell me what
Speaker 4: they're trying to say. Okay, okay, So this is the first,
Speaker 4: the first video that's going viral. Tell me if you
Speaker 4: noticed the mispronunciation.

Speaker 4: she's enjoyed. So try and and understand and tell me
Speaker 4: what words she's saying.
Speaker 2: Here yon keys go again, yon keys yo key. Well,
Speaker 2: I've officially found one of my new favorite meals. This
Speaker 2: is a creamy lemon chicken with yonkees. Correct. She's trying
Speaker 2: to say, knock you well done, Lauren.
Speaker 3: I can speak idiot, is what I'm getting from this.
Speaker 2: One's tough.
Speaker 4: It's enough food related video. This guy posted this to
Speaker 4: his social media. What is he trying to say?
Speaker 2: Here's okay?
Speaker 3: What what say it again?
Speaker 2: Okay? Zych I would you like the full video? Perhaps?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean a bit more context to the cooking.
Speaker 2: It is so delicious with tika.
Speaker 3: Is that what you say?
Speaker 2: Even?
Speaker 3: I was like nervous and is it thatske? I think
Speaker 3: it's tatsky tatsy key. That's okay, whatever. Now I think
Speaker 3: I brought a public service to the world. I taught
Speaker 3: for so many mums out there. You know, you have
Speaker 3: these horrible situations where your kids get things stuck up
Speaker 3: their nose because kids, it's what they do. Maybe it's
Speaker 3: a piece of lego, maybe it's a button, maybe it's
Speaker 3: some peas.
Speaker 4: It's frightening, and it's a new mum. I could imagine.
Speaker 4: Not everyone knows what to do in that situation.
Speaker 3: Absolutely terrifying. And I experienced it myself. You know, Lola,
Speaker 3: my little girl, she's got a button stuck up her nose.
Speaker 3: And I learn a technique which I wanted to bring
Speaker 3: here to the radio station, and I wanted to show
Speaker 3: Mitch how if he was ever in a point of distress,
Speaker 3: if he ever had something out, if it stuck up
Speaker 3: his nose, this would help him. There's no babies at
Speaker 3: the radio station, though, that's the problem. But I did
Speaker 3: have to try the technique on Mitch. Have a listen
Speaker 3: to this. You block the other nostril, not the nostril
Speaker 3: that has the thing in it, but block the opposite nostril,
Speaker 3: so then your kid will have their mouth open, and
Speaker 3: then you put your mouth over the.
Speaker 2: Do it.
Speaker 3: I didn't get a sealed. I have made out with
Speaker 3: Mitch Dury. He is alive and that was beautiful. Okay,
Speaker 3: so that happened. I've been thinking about this a lot
Speaker 3: over the last couple of days, because I you know,
Speaker 3: we want to do good in the world. We want
Speaker 3: to leave the world a better place than where we
Speaker 3: found them, And there are so many hacks and techniques
Speaker 3: that will make people better parents.
Speaker 2: I know exactly where you're going.
Speaker 3: One thing, one thing I really struggled with with Lola
Speaker 3: was that she had she had wind. And you know,
Speaker 3: if you've got a baby that's got colic, they're up
Speaker 3: all night, they're crying. It takes so much to try
Speaker 3: and settle them. And so I discovered a new hack
Speaker 3: which I wish I had known when Lola was little.
Speaker 3: It would have it would have saved me so many
Speaker 3: sleepless nights. And so I think, Mitch, knowing that you
Speaker 3: are the gassy boy that you are, that we should
Speaker 3: try it on you teach everyone.
Speaker 2: I'm okay, no you're not.
Speaker 3: I've been in a small, confined room with you very often,
Speaker 3: and I've I've witnessed it myself. What do you mean
Speaker 3: do you get sore pains in your belly because you're
Speaker 3: just so so so gassy.
Speaker 2: To do something?
Speaker 3: It'll call it a little bit back dark.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I go to go and go to get a
Speaker 2: fight out and I go, that's more than a fight.
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know if we should go through with this.
Speaker 2: Now? What is it?
Speaker 3: Well, look, I'm going to demonstrate on you it's really important. No,
Speaker 3: you're not I am, You're my test stummy, You're my
Speaker 3: guinea pa. The nation needs this.
Speaker 2: This works once. This isn't MythBusters.
Speaker 3: I'm I'm creating a segment out of this. We're going
Speaker 3: to do it every week. Well, I'm also a host
Speaker 3: on the show, and I need to be across these.
Speaker 3: Just lay down here, come on on the table.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't look at a pediatrician.
Speaker 3: And also put on like your baby, go google Gaga
Speaker 3: for me. Wait, wait, cry about your colleag.
Speaker 2: Wait how does it work? What's the tactic?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to cycle you to help you relieve gas.
Speaker 3: So yeah, this is technique which you do on little
Speaker 3: kids like for you know, and it helps them because
Speaker 3: the kids have their digestive systems move a bit more
Speaker 3: freely than adults. And if you do this, it's very
Speaker 3: specific technique which I'm going to talk you all through.
Speaker 3: It'll help with your kid's colic if you're a parent.
Speaker 2: So I'm going to get on the desk.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't know how going to quite do this,
Speaker 3: and I'm worried about the aftermath, but we're.
Speaker 2: Going to try.
Speaker 4: Say with us, everyone, please hold on hands and knees.
Speaker 3: No, lay on your back. You don't get on your
Speaker 3: hands and knees.
Speaker 2: Is my is my end at your front? My front
Speaker 2: at your end?
Speaker 3: Your end is facing me. I'm in the danger zone. Okay,
Speaker 3: Mitch is currently getting on the desk. You're really making
Speaker 3: a show of this though, you're making now, you're making
Speaker 3: this seem a lot harder than what it really is.
Speaker 3: Oh my, okay, now he's just get your foot off
Speaker 3: my microphone. Okay, so get your child so I just walked.
Speaker 3: Get your child to lay down on their back. Okay,
Speaker 3: they've got a sore little Tommy, Tom Tom. And then
Speaker 3: you're gonna grab their legs. Al on.
Speaker 2: Wait, you've got to give me consent, man.
Speaker 3: Can I do you consent to me touching your feet?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: Okay, thank you? All right, And then you've got to
Speaker 3: first off, I call their legs round like they're riding
Speaker 3: a little bike. Make sure that you push all the
Speaker 3: way up into the diaphragm.
Speaker 2: And then, oh my god, how.
Speaker 3: Are we feeling you're feeling loosening up.
Speaker 2: I feel like the blood's rushing from my skull.
Speaker 3: Okay, then you have to get both feet, put the
Speaker 3: feet together, and then started these Actually we're both in
Speaker 3: it at the same time.
Speaker 4: Okay, ye, any movement I feel like something's coming.
Speaker 3: Please point and then once you've done a little bit
Speaker 3: more cycling, just give it one fine or pushed down
Speaker 3: onto the diaphragm.
Speaker 2: It worked, it work.
Speaker 5: You did not?
Speaker 3: It works?
Speaker 2: That wasn't as far at me?
Speaker 3: Well you you just cycled it out of me.
Speaker 4: You got gaslight me into fighting and it laugh at me.
Speaker 3: It's discussing.
Speaker 2: Did I just do that? We can't. We have to
Speaker 2: go to the ads. I'm normally control the buttons. Go
Speaker 2: the ads. I'm embarrassed, bitch.
Speaker 3: You're pretty fresh in a relationship. You guys have been
Speaker 3: dating for a little bit now, but you have been
Speaker 3: in a long term relationship. And I am curious. When
Speaker 3: it is a same sex couple, how do you decide
Speaker 3: if you ever are to get engaged one day and
Speaker 3: ever to get married, how do you decide who takes
Speaker 3: which name?
Speaker 4: My God's the whole proposals confusing the name taking is confusing.
Speaker 3: You have to discuss it first. You're like, yeah, well.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, in both my relationships has been discussed, and
Speaker 4: I think it's very personal.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it does come down to I.
Speaker 4: Don't know, it's a very heterosexual thing to the man
Speaker 4: often gets his way and his name is carried on
Speaker 4: and the women have to forego their maiden name.
Speaker 3: Well, I because I kept my last name. So I
Speaker 3: got married to matt my husband a year and a half.
Speaker 3: His surname is Johnson, Maddie j Mattie Johnson. So we
Speaker 3: originally when he first proposed to me, he will fight
Speaker 3: this to the death. He'll say he never said this.
Speaker 3: When we first got engaged, he said how much it
Speaker 3: would have been to him if I was to take
Speaker 3: his name, and how he would find it a bit
Speaker 3: weird if I didn't. And now as times progressed, and
Speaker 3: every time I remind me of that, he's like, I
Speaker 3: never said that, that never happened.
Speaker 2: Barrass bless him.
Speaker 3: But it doesn't sound like that either.
Speaker 2: Just no, he doesn't.
Speaker 4: Not not to mock him on men, but for a
Speaker 4: lot of men, I mean, it's it's drilled into them, right,
Speaker 4: like their last name is a big part of their identity,
Speaker 4: and a lot of men it's very important to them.
Speaker 3: Well also, yeah, and I think for a lot of
Speaker 3: people it comes down to this idea of having a
Speaker 3: family unit where everyone has the same name. But I
Speaker 3: grew up in a family where there was lots of divorce.
Speaker 3: My mum has a different last name to me, My
Speaker 3: brother has a different last name to me, So it
Speaker 3: didn't seem quite as imperative from like a family unit perspective,
Speaker 3: but still, Laura Burn, I'm Laura Burn and the kids
Speaker 3: are the Johnsons. So my kids they've got a different
Speaker 3: last name to me. But we were talking about this recently.
Speaker 3: The discussion we were having is that if we have
Speaker 3: a third what would we name the.
Speaker 2: Third and can't add a third surname, or.
Speaker 3: Do we just give the middle name and make the
Speaker 3: middle name burn or make If it's a boy, maybe
Speaker 3: we can call the kid burn.
Speaker 2: You can't mate Burne Johnson. They're going to be Arsonists
Speaker 2: or Burne Johnson.
Speaker 3: Sounds like it's like they need a cream for that.
Speaker 3: That's something you need a cream.
Speaker 2: The most heavily before you Burne Johnson.
Speaker 3: Well, I came across these I came across an Instagram
Speaker 3: reel which really got me thinking. I think if you
Speaker 3: are in a relationship, if you're getting engaged and you're
Speaker 3: not sure whose last name you should take, I think
Speaker 3: it's okay to buck the trend and maybe we should
Speaker 3: be taking this advice. How to listen to this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the most common questions that I get
Speaker 1: when people find out that I'm a woman who's married
Speaker 1: to a woman is how did you guys decide whose
Speaker 1: last name you were going to choose? And we did
Speaker 1: something that I think every couple should do straight or not,
Speaker 1: and that is pick the coolest last name. When I
Speaker 1: met my wife, her last name was white. You wanted
Speaker 1: us to be the white we already are. We don't
Speaker 1: need to reiterate that my last name is Belairs like
Speaker 1: the fresh Prince off. And some of you guys are
Speaker 1: giving up your last name to marry into a Smith.
Speaker 3: You're giving up your cool last name to be a Johnson,
Speaker 3: and your.
Speaker 5: Father's not even getting a goat, Like, I just feel
Speaker 5: like it's twenty twenty four unless your dad's getting a
Speaker 5: goat in exchange for the marriage, or you're marrying into
Speaker 5: some sort of royal and it's got some generational wealth
Speaker 5: like Kardashian attached to it. We should probably always be
Speaker 5: picking the cooler last name.
Speaker 2: That was straight at the end when he was a
Speaker 2: Johnson nake, Oh Johnson.
Speaker 3: I sent it to madd and he said, this is
Speaker 3: not actually that fight thirteen.
Speaker 4: If you're currently going through this situation, maybe we can
Speaker 4: help you and advise you as to maybe whose name
Speaker 4: you should take. But you're so right, Laurie. It feels
Speaker 4: like a real straight issue, like with the gays. I mean,
Speaker 4: we'll have a discussion. Our producer Grace just got married.
Speaker 2: Grace.
Speaker 3: We don't know yet. Are you going to do the
Speaker 3: coolest name? Well, we thought about that, but I'm very
Speaker 3: attached to my name. I think Grace Guard is a
Speaker 3: powerful name. What's Diana's last name? How cool? Also cool?
Speaker 3: But God is better single syllabink But Diana Gard just
Speaker 3: doesn't make sense for.
Speaker 2: Diana Dinah Guard sounds like dinosaur. Grace like dinosaur Dinah
Speaker 2: Guard like Diana.
Speaker 3: All right, let's help the nation out. Let's get some
Speaker 3: people on here who are in the.
Speaker 4: You make it out like we're doing God's work helping
Speaker 4: the nation.
Speaker 2: They're not mother to people don't know.
Speaker 3: It's very it's a very hard thing to navigate.
Speaker 4: Well, Vivian, it's called on thirteen one six five. What's
Speaker 4: going on with you? You're getting married? Are you're torn
Speaker 4: with the name taking situation?
Speaker 6: So I got married. We got married last years and
Speaker 6: then so we both kept our own last name, and
Speaker 6: there was a bit to it. We had a conversation
Speaker 6: about it, and it was an easy conversation anyway. I said,
Speaker 6: I wanted to keep my last name because my my
Speaker 6: dad's always asked me to keep the family's last name.
Speaker 3: As long as I can remember no brothers.
Speaker 6: Then no, it's not so much about a passing the
Speaker 6: last name on. He just wanted to keep like a
Speaker 6: part of family.
Speaker 2: Can I ask what it is? Is it a cool last name?
Speaker 6: I have an ethnic last name, so's twins, and then
Speaker 6: my husband is Caucasian Australian. So you're the Johnson?
Speaker 3: He said Johnson. See every Johnson who is listening to
Speaker 3: this is feeling personally victimized.
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
Speaker 4: In a row threena row that lady on Instagram.
Speaker 3: So I don't want I don't want the paperwork. Were
Speaker 3: you the same? I'm like the paperwork of changing your
Speaker 3: name just seems like it's so arduous.
Speaker 7: Yes, that as well.
Speaker 6: But speaking of paperwork, I'm a dentist, so my last
Speaker 6: name is on my graduations. Oh, yes, me as doctor
Speaker 6: when no one I.
Speaker 4: Don't want to jumps in my mouth, Actually no I do.
Speaker 4: Hey Amy on thirteen one O six five, Hello, what's
Speaker 4: going on with your situation?
Speaker 3: Amy?
Speaker 7: Hello, we're engaged. But it's like, do I change my
Speaker 7: name to his name so it's the same as our daughters,
Speaker 7: or do I keep mine? Because I think it flows?
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's your last name?
Speaker 7: Turner?
Speaker 3: And what's his last name? Luro? Amy? Luro Turner.
Speaker 2: Now Amyl is a good name. Lewis sounds like a magician.
Speaker 2: That would get.
Speaker 3: Sound bad, does it? They're both good names.
Speaker 2: It depends on what you do for work. Amy, she's
Speaker 2: a magician.
Speaker 7: I mean yeah, yeah, yes, that's what I'm going into events.
Speaker 4: Oh, Amy Luro events. That's brilliant. Although Amy Turner events
Speaker 4: will turn those events around.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I like the fun. Also, Amy Turner just sounds more reliable.
Speaker 3: Amy Turner's gonna get the job done.
Speaker 4: Oh, Amy Turner would fix my sink in ten minutes,
Speaker 4: and I pay a full rates plus GST.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: I'm all for I know it's controversial and still people
Speaker 3: feel differently about it, but I'm all for keeping your
Speaker 3: last name. I think it doesn't make you any less
Speaker 3: committed to your family. It makes you no less committed
Speaker 3: to your relationship. I'm sure there's plenty of men out
Speaker 3: there who are going to be like, I'll turn this
Speaker 3: wench off the radio, But I honestly, I just think
Speaker 3: it's It's okay.
Speaker 4: Hey men, women can be powerful. I have access to
Speaker 4: Laura's combank, and women can be powerful
