Speaker 4: But he added a on the H.

24
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: I think that makes it more complicated. If any of

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 2: us are honest, who knows how to be spelled jaquin?

26
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,440

Speaker 2: depends who you're talking to.

62
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: So I understand him and Pat's word of a certain age.

63
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: But what about if you're dealing with like a twenty

64
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 3: year old, They're not going to know who Marlon Brando is? Now,

65
00:02:59,120 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 3: do you reckon?

66
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 5: No? No, not really, Like a lot of the time

67
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 5: I get confused with the Fish or Nemo's dade.

68
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: I forgot he was called that as in Neo's dads.

69
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, and look that that spelt differently, but that's generally

70
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 5: what I get away with. And then my last name

71
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 5: is McLoud, so it's in McLeod's daughters, not as in

72
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 5: like mc cloud ye l e O d.

73
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,440

76
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say it's the first world problem, but.

77
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Martin, thank you very much. She called my I

78
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 3: have a good day thanks to killing the show. Cheers, counting,

79
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: good morning, good morning.

80
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: So your name, as in, what do you say to people?

81
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: Well, our last name has two pronunciations, so if you

82
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: say it with the original Italian, you could pronounce it

83
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: like a facial pastor, which is more squetti.

84
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 5: So who.

85
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: Otherwise, if you say it is Aussie Bergan, it's like

86
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: the big knife, Michelle.

87
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 2: That's two wildly different words, aren't they though, Kerm.

88
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: Yes exactly, and people constantly get it mistaken. Otherwise, if

89
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: you take my maiden name, which is German, it's keeeny.

90
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: I just say my grandfather, whose first name was Bert,

91
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: was the person who invented swim with be Keeni.

92
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: That's very clever, theo way you broke it the down

93
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: actually I impressed.

94
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,960

106
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: but with an L, not a B. Also, when I

107
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 3: was three, my sister was carrying me at a caravan park.

108
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: She suddenly saw a frog, freaked out, dropped.

109
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,279

114
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: four three. Laura, Welcome to the show.

115
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 7: Laura, Good morning everybody. My name's Laura, and I'm Itallian.

116
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 7: But it's not spelled La. You are a it's spelled

117
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 7: l O R. And I have to explain to everybody

118
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 7: it's like Dora but with a L. And everyone looks

119
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 7: at me really strange. And then I even get asked,

120
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 7: how do I pronounce your name and how do you

121
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 7: spell it?

122
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 2: So Laura.

123
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 3: I just presume there was only one way I was

124
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,799
Speaker 3: spelling Laura. So there's a different Italian variation.

125
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 7: Well, apparently it's a German. It's the German spelling I

126
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 7: was told by if I work with children and family

127
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 7: told me. The grandmother goes, oh, are you German? And

128
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 7: I said no, I'm actually attaining. She said, We're all

129
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 7: spelling is spelled how the Germans would spell Laura. So

130
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 7: go figure.

131
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 5: I don't know.

132
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 7: I don't know what my parents are thinking, but I

133
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 7: think I've ever only had one person in my whole

134
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 7: entire lifetime when they've set me mail, have not asked

135
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 7: me how to spell my name, and they've actually spelled

136
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 7: to lra. And every time I get anything spelled that way,

137
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 7: I'm in shock. I work, as I said, with children

138
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 7: in the parents. When I get cards, like at Christmas

139
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 7: time or a thank you card or something, it's always

140
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 7: l A U R A spell l everywhere so they

141
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 7: can see it, but no one, no one even knows that.

142
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 7: And I actually worked somewhere with they called me for

143
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 7: six months Laura.

144
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's nowhere near Laura, is it no?

145
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 7: And when I left, they said goodbye Laura. And in

146
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 7: the end, I just I was sick of telling them

147
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 7: that my name calls me Laura.

148
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 2: That's it. I've done out of here.

149
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 3: All right, Laura as in Dora. Correct, We've gotcha, all right,

150
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Laura as in Dora.

151
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: That's you cool, Thank you.

152
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 5: Have a good day, babe.

153
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 3: I thought we're going to get a few more jobs.

154
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: Then I think it's Laura as in once I was

155
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 3: working with.

156
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 2: We got a full CV either. We went through that resume.

157
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,400

00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 3: Good So you've got a story about animals on public transport,

160
00:07:58,880 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: I do.

161
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 8: My parents had an outing of the city and they're

162
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 8: at a tram stop waiting to come home. So they

163
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 8: had been a good Samara and thought I'd give this

164
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 8: lady a hand lifting the pram into the tram and

165
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 8: they said that they got it up there, and Mom

166
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 8: had a look, and then she had to look again

167
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 8: and she starts laughing. It's like you've just given a

168
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 8: lady a hand with a cat inside the pram. That

169
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 8: my dad turned round. He's like just shook his head like.

170
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 2: To do still help somebody out.

171
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, great, he's a good Samaran. But then he's just

172
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 8: like now he's thinking twice when there's a pram when

173
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 8: he heads into the city again. So she's like, you've

174
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 8: never seen.

175
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 3: You know, we call out for me once cat and

176
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 3: the prams. That's how arrogant cats are. If we're going

177
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 3: to town. You got ferry around and would take the tram.

178
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 8: He was brought back by it. But we're still give

188
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 6: to pull over and buy a chicken that I had

189
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 6: to buy. I had to hold the chicken for the

190
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 6: entire journey.
