Speaker 1: Is it just me?
Speaker 2: A podcast by a couple of mies.
Speaker 1: This is so exciting. OSSI TV legend Oussie Radio legend guys,
Speaker 1: please welcome our Kiss f fam a colleague and host
Speaker 1: of the three pm.
Speaker 3: Pick up Kate Legards.
Speaker 1: How are you?
Speaker 3: Do you know what? I'm so sated?
Speaker 2: You're so what now?
Speaker 3: Sated?
Speaker 1: Sated?
Speaker 3: I'm full, I'm satisfied.
Speaker 2: Oh do you know what?
Speaker 4: The reason I've actually dragged you in here, Kate, is
Speaker 4: to talk about your vocabulary. So the fact that you've
Speaker 4: already taught me and you were within the first few
Speaker 4: seconds of joining us, is actually incredible.
Speaker 1: This is very exciting because every day, driving into work,
Speaker 1: because I do nights here at Kiss, Kate does the
Speaker 1: three pm pick up, which is the pick up the
Speaker 1: school pickup time three to four pm. I hear your
Speaker 1: show every day and it's the one show that I
Speaker 1: truly listen to every single day because it's sort, it's punchy,
Speaker 1: it's just an hour. It's so much fun. I love it.
Speaker 1: And you're back this year, which is great.
Speaker 3: Yes, I am back.
Speaker 2: I do enjoy it too.
Speaker 3: You don't enjoy it, no, I seriously, you can't just
Speaker 3: chip in on them and hitch your wagon to Mitch's horse.
Speaker 2: Me I would not.
Speaker 4: I'm not hitching myself to that thing. And no, in
Speaker 4: any way am I the horse in this?
Speaker 3: You know, I call the show. They call the show
Speaker 3: Mitch Mitch hitch, or we could go Mitch Mitch bitch.
Speaker 1: That's us. It's great to have you here, Kate. So
Speaker 1: we start the show off the same way every week.
Speaker 1: The show is is It just Me? With two I
Speaker 1: gems as we call them, which is a new word
Speaker 1: we've coined, I I, JM.
Speaker 4: And mine actually does relate to something that I heard
Speaker 4: on the three PM pick up.
Speaker 2: That's that's why I brought you in here. Actually, I
Speaker 2: was like, I've got to bring this up with Kate.
Speaker 2: I did already mention it. I've blome alow. But hey,
Speaker 2: let's get into it.
Speaker 1: All right first, gym, let's go is it just me?
Speaker 4: Does Kate Langluk have the most wonderful vocabulary in the world.
Speaker 3: It's stunning.
Speaker 2: I learn a new word every day listening to Kate.
Speaker 2: I'm like, God, a pull over my car and write
Speaker 2: that down. Don't even know what it means.
Speaker 1: Is this a compliment for you, Kate?
Speaker 3: Or no? Well? I do you know what. I don't
Speaker 3: think that people who invented commercial radio invented it to
Speaker 3: be like the Shakespeare of our time? Do you know
Speaker 3: what I mean? Vanilla most popular flavor? Nobody likes the
Speaker 3: fucking wordy lady in the corner with the singer of thesaurus.
Speaker 3: No one likes that. I don't think any of our
Speaker 3: bosses would be sitting there going, oh, she uses words
Speaker 3: people don't know. Oh, that'll get the ten plus flowing in.
Speaker 2: Have they ever said anything about it?
Speaker 3: No? Do you think they probably will after this?
Speaker 1: Maybe they'll sit you down and may go Kate. I
Speaker 1: take a seat Betty in Penrith, Which is the analogy
Speaker 1: I always get Betty and Penrith doesn't understand the word analogy, but.
Speaker 3: I think Betty does, because I do think that Australians
Speaker 3: speak quite colorfully and beautifully, like do you know what
Speaker 3: we love? You know a bit of rhyming slang or
Speaker 3: a bit of a cleverick expression, aura, you know we
Speaker 3: do that? What didn't you understand?
Speaker 4: Well, I've got the audio here, so this is what
Speaker 4: I heard the other day, Betty.
Speaker 3: I'm going to call you, Betty. Why didn't you understand Betty.
Speaker 1: I'll roll the audio.
Speaker 3: Bety, you do it for yourself because my legs look
Speaker 3: so beautiful and smooth, and they're offset by the stunning
Speaker 3: vista behind them. Let me share this with the world,
Speaker 3: who otherwise heaps derision upon me and my body?
Speaker 2: Wow, that's deep much.
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't know what that means, but
Speaker 4: I'm just sitting around waiting for the opportunity to accuse
Speaker 4: someone of heaping derision upon me and my body.
Speaker 3: Betty, nobody would heap derision upon you?
Speaker 2: What could mean?
Speaker 3: You are the archetype. It means they mock me.
Speaker 2: Really, that just means mock.
Speaker 3: Heap derision means they mock me. But but well, derision
Speaker 3: means like in a more negative way.
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, I literally, I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 3: I wrote it down.
Speaker 4: I was like, heaps derision, heaps derision. Funnily enough, it
Speaker 4: hasn't come up once. But I'm waiting for the day
Speaker 4: you waiting for the day.
Speaker 1: You face some derision. Division.
Speaker 3: Mitch heaps derision on you all the time, and vice versa.
Speaker 3: That's Latin.
Speaker 2: Have you heard that it's mostly the other way around?
Speaker 1: Have you heard vice versa?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: I know what you.
Speaker 3: I don't know, Betty, I don't know how your Latin
Speaker 3: studies went.
Speaker 2: No, not good. Did you also have a good vocabulary
Speaker 2: when you were living in Italy for two years? Like?
Speaker 2: How was your vocab there?
Speaker 3: You would have loved me there because I spoke so simply,
Speaker 3: like a toddler, like give food.
Speaker 1: Me barata salami, tummy.
Speaker 3: Exactly, that's all I needed siesta. Yes, I was like
Speaker 3: a two year old.
Speaker 2: Oh that would have killed you, not knowing all the
Speaker 2: words you know here?
Speaker 3: Do you know what? That is so true, even though
Speaker 3: I think you're slightly keeping derision on Betty's a bit anyway,
Speaker 3: because I'm so used to opening my mental drawers and
Speaker 3: the elves when they wake up and I opened, there's
Speaker 3: heaps of words, so many words. And when my mental
Speaker 3: elves open the drawers in Italy there was nothing.
Speaker 1: Moths would fly out, like, oh that's beautiful, that's that
Speaker 1: sounds great, you know what, that's so funny. I watched
Speaker 1: the Joan Rivers documentary a long time ago, and the
Speaker 1: one thing that stuck with me was that she said
Speaker 1: her jokes in her brain works in the same way
Speaker 1: as like a rolodex, Like she will be in a
Speaker 1: situation she will just open the roller DECKX and her
Speaker 1: brain will go to flick through, pull out a joke
Speaker 1: and then she can just you know, slam it out
Speaker 1: there by road. And I think that's such a skill
Speaker 1: to have.
Speaker 3: Well, that happens to me with words. But isn't that everyone?
Speaker 3: That's how talking work.
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm just gonna say that, isn't That's just a
Speaker 4: really fancy way of saying she has a memory?
Speaker 1: All right, to lay off with a derivesion, I can't
Speaker 1: even fucking say it.
Speaker 2: Lay off with the division derision, It'll.
Speaker 3: Be the Derision division. I like Bitch show.
Speaker 1: Now this is poor Jed is going to have the
Speaker 1: fright of her life when she returns to the show
Speaker 1: rebranded as the Mitch, Mitch and Bitch. What did I do?
Speaker 3: That's like Will and Woody when I came back, asked
Speaker 3: if i'd come back to take their job. But I'm like,
Speaker 3: I had your job. If I wanted your job, I
Speaker 3: wouldn't have left your job.
Speaker 2: And you had that job and you couldn't stand it?
Speaker 3: All right, we've done derision. What's next on our learning
Speaker 3: at our learning academy? Or was that that was just.
Speaker 4: The one that I needed clarity on because I heard
Speaker 4: it the other day. But I have taken quite a
Speaker 4: few from you. I remember you used the word repast
Speaker 4: to refer to just like a meal, and I was like,
Speaker 4: she was repasted?
Speaker 2: Here there you go. And I was like, I was like, Mum,
Speaker 2: when's our repast ready?
Speaker 3: She's like, where the did Mama.
Speaker 2: Look?
Speaker 3: Betty? Because this is the thing about words. There's a
Speaker 3: different one for everything and a repast, and I'm sure
Speaker 3: I would have said a sumptuous repast because there are
Speaker 3: two words that always go together. Yes, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, Like Mitch and Mitch they're inseparable.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's more.
Speaker 3: Stunning than just a meal dinner? Where's me plate? Mum? No,
Speaker 3: why can't we be Why can't we elevate ourselves? That
Speaker 3: means lift up, Betty? Why can't we enjoy being the
Speaker 3: best versions of ourselves? Why do we always have to
Speaker 3: be so basic?
Speaker 2: I agree that Bloody write down all the big words.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 1: I tend to agree. I've got to I've got a
Speaker 1: Kate related im two now that we think of it,
Speaker 1: and it's something that I feel like I do too.
Speaker 1: Are you ready to hear mine Caine.
Speaker 3: Oh, I can't wait. I'm adoring this. Is it just me?
Speaker 1: Is it totally fine to laugh at the jokes that
Speaker 1: you make?
Speaker 3: Oh? Yes, next at.
Speaker 1: The end of the show, Jan we get out of here.
Speaker 1: I completely agree, Kate. It's something that I've noticed that
Speaker 1: you do, is something that I do. Mitch pulls me
Speaker 1: up on it. Sorry, Betty pulls me up on it
Speaker 1: all the time.
Speaker 2: I don't pull you up on it.
Speaker 4: But I just remember at an early age Dad saying, oh,
Speaker 4: it's rude to laugh at your own jokes.
Speaker 3: And you know what, you know what he was doing,
Speaker 3: clipping your wings? Yes, like Icarus, google it, you would
Speaker 3: have flown so close to the sun save for your father.
Speaker 3: I did have to say to my husband once when
Speaker 3: we started dating, there's enough people in this world that
Speaker 3: don't want the best for you. It's a very I
Speaker 3: have to say, prevailing Australian attitude as well. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I've only lived in one other country overseas, but people
Speaker 3: are always like, back in your bark, you got chickens
Speaker 3: on yourself. Oh you love yourself as though that's an
Speaker 3: insult anyway, true, but I just think that's a wing Clipper.
Speaker 3: It is a bit I think, why wouldn't you laugh
Speaker 3: at your own jokes? And of course you're not funny.
Speaker 1: No, it's not.
Speaker 2: I'm fully aware of my being hilarious.
Speaker 4: But the thing is that I think that it's fine
Speaker 4: to laugh at your own jokes if your laugh in
Speaker 4: of itself is hilarious, like you and Mitch have very
Speaker 4: iconic laughs, Like I just laugh because you're laughing sometimes.
Speaker 3: Well, because I've got a cackle, you.
Speaker 4: Do, and I'm fully in support of it. So whether
Speaker 4: you're laughing at your own jokes anyone else's, I don't care.
Speaker 1: I have an example. So this is when your co
Speaker 1: host Monty called through to the show the three pm
Speaker 1: pick up to announce that she had had her own
Speaker 1: little baby, and this was your this was your reaction, came.
Speaker 3: I've seen photos. He looks like his brothers, amazing because
Speaker 3: they don't have the same father.
Speaker 2: I haven't broken.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 3: Can you even believe that I have a daughter who's
Speaker 3: about to turn nineteen? Yes? Yeah, I remember I was
Speaker 3: pregnant on Channel V she was breastfeeding the makeup chair. Wow,
Speaker 3: who was Bruce feeding her? Very funny anyway, So I
Speaker 3: like how she's.
Speaker 2: The first to laugh at her own joke.
Speaker 3: It's the best, totally. Your dad wouldn't like it, Betty,
Speaker 3: I like it.
Speaker 2: No, it must be a city thing.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you have to, yes, because you might be talking
Speaker 3: to people who are dead insung. Yeah, true, yeah, I
Speaker 3: just really, you've got to be in control of your
Speaker 3: own emotional state, and that includes enjoyment.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it also lends a hand to the other people
Speaker 1: to say, hey, it's okay to laugh too. Here's an
Speaker 1: invitation to laugh. It's all right if a joke was
Speaker 1: a little bit inappropriate or on the nose. Then if
Speaker 1: you laugh and they go.
Speaker 3: Not particularly funny, yes, they miss, they miss.
Speaker 4: Very true fake laugh, Kate, Or is it always genuine?
Speaker 4: Because Mitch has actually nailed a fake laugh, and so I.
Speaker 2: Never know whether to believe him. It is he pitying
Speaker 2: me and just fake laughing, or is he actually laughing?
Speaker 3: Yes, I say that without having hurt the joke. No
Speaker 3: one wants to be mean to Betty.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. I haven't differentiated the two. So
Speaker 1: my genuine laugh is identical to my fake laugh, and
Speaker 1: that's where I've gone wrong. So there's no one can
Speaker 1: ever tell the difference.
Speaker 3: Really, So I sometimes. In fact, in that last one
Speaker 3: I did do a fake laugh. But it's a funny
Speaker 3: fake laugh.
Speaker 1: Oh the that was no. Go Yeah, that's different. That's
Speaker 1: that's high comedy in itself. You're allowed.
Speaker 3: Thank you. I noticed you're not laughing at it.
Speaker 2: That's fake.
Speaker 1: That's fake fake.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: I love it because it's got that wee month.
Speaker 1: That's the wheeze. Our listeners compared it to a little duckling.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it has a little it's in a minute of
Speaker 1: a week.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, do you smoke?
Speaker 1: No, I've had one Marlborough read in my life had
Speaker 1: an instant nosebleed.
Speaker 3: Never, you're a chronic vapor. I mean something's going on there.
Speaker 1: No, I was born three months premature. The neuroformax in
Speaker 1: the lung. And thanks for bringing up but it's lung issues.
Speaker 3: Well I know Mitchell's frequently premature, but he doesn't. We
Speaker 3: very OK.
Speaker 1: That is so, that is so apt. We do a
Speaker 1: segment on this show called We Do O Kate. Kate
Speaker 1: might have some advice.
Speaker 4: She doesn't have to deal with the rectile dysfunction on
Speaker 4: account of her any depressant.
Speaker 3: No, you don't know that.
Speaker 4: I don't you get your own, maybe someone else I
Speaker 4: don't know's true.
Speaker 3: And who's got the bigger problem? It would be me.
Speaker 3: It would because at least you know what's going on
Speaker 3: with the flaccid Latin Google at Betty.
Speaker 4: Mitch likes to mock me because at age twenty four,
Speaker 4: they prescribe me vi AGRAA to counteract to the antidepressants,
Speaker 4: being a bony killer.
Speaker 3: Antidepressants, So shocking for that. But haven't they improved them?
Speaker 2: Nah?
Speaker 1: Not the ones I'm taken, clearly not not the strength.
Speaker 3: How hurtful for the people you with. Let's just let's
Speaker 3: just have a moment to acknowledge them, I know.
Speaker 4: Because it's not like I can fake it as like
Speaker 4: a woman can just be like, oh yeah, I'm really
Speaker 4: into it.
Speaker 3: No, you know, God's right, It don't mean a thing
Speaker 3: if it ain't got that swing.
Speaker 4: Yes, Google, Betty, the problem.
Speaker 1: Down? How do you google? Got an iPad going to? Now?
Speaker 1: The problem was is that he couldn't work out the timings,
Speaker 1: so he pop appeal two minutes before you know, sort
Speaker 1: of copulation two minutes takes a couple of hour. Well,
Speaker 1: they go home and then he get a buddy, you know,
Speaker 1: Stiffy halfway through Friends. So it's not good. But he's
Speaker 1: worked it out. Now, this is all embellished.
Speaker 3: Don't believe you go home to watch Friend? No, no,
Speaker 3: you do. You're sure, Betty? I think Friends is a
Speaker 3: very Betty shot.
Speaker 2: You know what I do? I go home and listen
Speaker 2: to the three pm pickup.
Speaker 1: Oh he's good.
Speaker 3: Know what we are very Betty. We're totally there for Betty.
Speaker 3: I adore Betty. The unsung heroes of the world are
Speaker 3: the Beaties.
Speaker 2: I can you know.
Speaker 3: No one's checking out to see what she's wearing on
Speaker 3: in stuff. But let me tell you, if you want
Speaker 3: a passion fruit sponge, you're going straight be No instant
Speaker 3: models ever provided comfort at a funeral. Sandwiches Dunning.
Speaker 1: You know what, I think there's a hole. There's a
Speaker 1: hole in the market there for influencers who are actually
Speaker 1: influencing the right ship. Have you ever been sold anything
Speaker 1: via influencing? Kane, you buying the BB oil that carry
Speaker 1: Big Mare's sprooking.
Speaker 3: Or what's bby oil?
Speaker 1: It's clearly not working.
Speaker 3: The the BB cream? Yeah, I bought baby cream. That's
Speaker 3: quite good.
Speaker 1: There you go, all right?
Speaker 3: So, yeah, but I didn't know Carrie was on to
Speaker 3: it not putting me off it.
Speaker 1: No, you and I had the same We were doing
Speaker 1: the same instant stories for every plate, which is brilliant
Speaker 1: and family friendly.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, do you know what's happened with my
Speaker 3: every plate that I've just realized I've lost weight? Really, yes,
Speaker 3: because I'm not shopping as much right and so I'm
Speaker 3: not there for the milky bar, the King of the bar,
Speaker 3: king of the white chocolate. You can jam your Cadbury
Speaker 3: whatever it's called, Nat Nat bebby, don't come at me
Speaker 3: with it anyway. Yeah, I lost weight from every plate.
Speaker 4: Mitch was very tough to be able to be able
Speaker 4: to be able to brag, Oh, I've got the same
Speaker 4: brand dealers Kate lang Rog. We're both flogging the same
Speaker 4: thing on Instagram. And I'm like, yeah, but you're probably
Speaker 4: doing it for a fraction of the.
Speaker 1: Fee I was.
Speaker 3: He was just happy for the food.
Speaker 1: I was, Now, what the hell happened? We need to
Speaker 1: talk about this. It's the TV show that you did
Speaker 1: on Channel ten a couple of weeks back. It was
Speaker 1: all about reflecting on the year that was with COVID
Speaker 1: nineteen Life in Lockdown on Zoom Interviews and you narrated
Speaker 1: the Great Year.
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm the voiceover person.

Speaker 4: bag of a minute to do that. But did you
Speaker 4: throw in any of your own stories about lockdown in Italy?
Speaker 4: Which was far worse than it was here?
Speaker 3: There was no time, unlike you guys, it was no
Speaker 3: time for Katie. I just had to keep the story
Speaker 3: rattling along because there was a lot to fit in. Yes,
Speaker 3: it was a hell of a year. I don't know
Speaker 3: if you noticed.
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: I was thriving, has a great yf us.
Speaker 3: Well, can I just say I really enjoyed Lockdown?
Speaker 2: Oh that's good. Are you an introvert?
Speaker 3: No? But you know what I am. I was tired.
Speaker 3: I got four kids, I was living on the other
Speaker 3: side of the world. That's a lot of work. Even
Speaker 3: though I was technically not working. It was just nice
Speaker 3: to have the breather.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a brief period right when you were
Speaker 4: actually working out of Italy.
Speaker 2: Didn't you have your own little home story.
Speaker 3: I did for the first six months. Yeah, right, I
Speaker 3: was so tired.
Speaker 2: Did that little home studio just end up gathering dust?
Speaker 3: Like what happened. It wasn't at home. It was like
Speaker 3: two kilometers from my house, but still in the city
Speaker 3: or as we call genter Oh google it, Betty change
Speaker 3: not c h is with a C, but it's pronounced
Speaker 3: because it's in another language.
Speaker 2: Added to the list. The list.
Speaker 3: Anyway, it was about two kilometers from my place and
Speaker 3: it was in a filmmaker's office because they used to
Speaker 3: move big files and Sasha, our producer, found it because
Speaker 3: they had the best internet in blow.
Speaker 4: So now you're back in Australia and you're like, I
