Speaker 2: A hospital chicken sandwich as And guess what Mad did
Speaker 2: the second my daughter was born, went downstairs and got

Speaker 4: We want to know that's gold. What did your partner

Speaker 2: on the TV.
Speaker 9: Look and here's the fense. I was in way for
Speaker 9: about twenty hours and he knew one.
Speaker 8: I think, so as he got a bit serious, he
Speaker 8: had to put it down.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is going to make you
Speaker 1: this situation better or worse. But I can't tell you
Speaker 1: how many people wrote in saying that their partner put
Speaker 1: the cricket on while they're in labor.
Speaker 3: Really, yeah, you're not alone. I feel like you need
Speaker 3: to redo mankind.
Speaker 6: Also, cricket's a long sport. It's not like an episode
Speaker 6: of SVU or in Order.
Speaker 4: You didn't get out.
Speaker 3: But that's the perfect thing to watch when you're a
Speaker 3: label show.
Speaker 4: There's a point to it. Maybe it is perfect you
Speaker 4: in twenty two.
Speaker 2: Your Saturday Morning read Hockley and Laura Beniss.
Speaker 6: Right now, though you'll know our next guest from the
Speaker 6: Cheap Seats on Channel ten. Have you been paying attention?
Speaker 6: She's about to be part of the Melbourne International Comedy
Speaker 6: Festival that's happening later in the month with Melanie Bracewell
Speaker 6: is here.
Speaker 8: Hello Melanie, Hello guys.
Speaker 2: Now you have spoken before about how you deal with
Speaker 2: being uncomfortable on a first date or dating and the
Speaker 2: trials and tribulations of dating.
Speaker 3: Can you share some of your hot tips with us?
Speaker 8: Well, the thing is is that I did have a
Speaker 8: lot of dating material. There are a lot of weird
Speaker 8: guys online, so there was a lot a lot of
Speaker 8: the material my mind from dating. But now I'm in
Speaker 8: a loving, long term relationship, so it's really killed a
Speaker 8: lot of material that I had. Actually hear dumpingham just
Speaker 8: the more stuff to work with.
Speaker 3: You know, what was it?
Speaker 10: Like?
Speaker 1: I want to know how or what you did before
Speaker 1: you became a stand up comedian, Well, like, what was
Speaker 1: the transition? Have you always just been super funny and
Speaker 1: knew that was what you're to do, or did you
Speaker 1: have like a life before comedy?
Speaker 8: No, straight out the womb, I was cracking gag about
Speaker 8: Lata Room. No, I just I kind of I don't
Speaker 8: even think I knew I would have a career in
Speaker 8: comedy when I started my career in comedy, if that
Speaker 8: makes sense, I just started it as a hobby and
Speaker 8: it was kind of like, I'll just keep doing this
Speaker 8: until I hate it. And I didn't hate it, so
Speaker 8: I kind of started online and had a blog on Tumblr.
Speaker 8: Was my basic sort of foray into writing comedy and
Speaker 8: then I took some of the stuff I wrote for
Speaker 8: Tumblr and set it on stage, and that's kind of
Speaker 8: where it all began.
Speaker 1: I tell us a little bit about what your touring
Speaker 1: show is about.
Speaker 8: I called my show ula Lah because I kind of
Speaker 8: thought this year I was going to be, you know,
Speaker 8: gallivanting through Europe and beautiful sequent gowns and things, and
Speaker 8: I was like, this is going to be the heir
Speaker 8: of my life. And then I was just kind of
Speaker 8: at home writing jokes about my weighted blanket, and I
Speaker 8: thought this might be a different show than what I imagine.
Speaker 8: And so I've basically kind of made my show about
Speaker 8: memories and kind of pre lockdown because I think everyone
Speaker 8: is just sick to death hearing about COVID and hearing
Speaker 8: about all that kind of thing. So my show is
Speaker 8: basically a lot pre COVID of my life, essentially what
Speaker 8: it was like growing up.
Speaker 2: I like that we have nothing to look forward to,
Speaker 2: so we've got to look to the past.
Speaker 3: That's what we're doing about exactly.
Speaker 8: That is the slogan for the show.
Speaker 1: Look, I've just got one question I want to ask
Speaker 1: before we let you go. There's a rumor are you
Speaker 1: appearing on the jungle because you're contracted to Channel ten.
Speaker 8: That's interesting. Do you know what? Because Cal Wilson the
Speaker 8: Slave Season and they said this key week comedian will
Speaker 8: be a real fush out of water, and I got
Speaker 8: so many people going, You're going to the jungle. Oh wow,
Speaker 8: it's not me. I like my bids. I like the
Speaker 8: luxuries of life. I like my shower. I reckon I'd
Speaker 8: probably be terrible at it. I'm very competitive though, so
Speaker 8: i'd probably I would try very hard, but I don't
Speaker 8: know if i'd be successful.
Speaker 3: So no, no rice beans and lizard guts for you, then.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that's I think that's what gets me
Speaker 8: the gross eating.
Speaker 4: No, thank you, Melanie. Where can people get tickets to
Speaker 4: your show at the Comedy.
Speaker 8: Fest comedyfiestfool dot com dot au if you just search Melanie.
Speaker 8: I think I'm the only Melanie in the festival that
Speaker 8: could be a lie. I could have pave that up, but.
Speaker 4: I'll claim it perfect.
Speaker 6: Go book tickets, Go see Melanie. Great to catch you
Speaker 6: and we'll talk to you soon. Okay, thanks for coming
Speaker 6: on the show.
Speaker 3: Mouth.
Speaker 4: This is the life on count radio show.
Speaker 6: Now at a lot of negativity in the world, at
Speaker 6: the moment, ladies, what's going on. We've got everything with
Speaker 6: the Ukraine and Russia, but you've got some good news,
Speaker 6: something to bright now day.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I feel like there's just so much, so much depression
Speaker 1: coming out of the world right now. But there is
Speaker 1: something that went viral the last couple of days, and
Speaker 1: it warmed my heart. I cried, I felt happy for her,
Speaker 1: and I just thought the world needs to share it
Speaker 1: a little bit more. There's a seven year old Ukrainian girl.
Speaker 1: Her name is Amelia in Nashevich. I probably didn't say
Speaker 1: that right, good good Anishevich Amelia Nishovich. She's seven years old.
Speaker 1: She was filmed in a bomb shelter with her family
Speaker 1: and some just like I don't know how many people
Speaker 1: they went there weren't a lot, but obviously they were
Speaker 1: taking shelter. She was filmed singing let it Go, Frozens,
Speaker 1: let it Go, and she was just singing to the
Speaker 1: other people in the bomb shelter to try and lift
Speaker 1: the mood.
Speaker 3: She's a beautiful singer.
Speaker 1: Someone's filmed it in there, uploaded it to the internet
Speaker 1: and this little girl has gone absolutely viral. Was seen
Speaker 1: by thousands and thousands of people. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you guys saw Poland held a really big concert to
Speaker 1: raise money that had a lot of Polish and you
Speaker 1: Trainian artists. So they had this big concert to raise
Speaker 1: money for the Ukraine. Right, they got her on in
Speaker 1: front of like over ten thousand people.
Speaker 3: Now, this little girl, she's never I mean she's she's
Speaker 3: a normal seven year old little girl.
Speaker 1: And so she got up and sang the national anthem
Speaker 1: and it was the most incredible moving thing. If you
Speaker 1: haven't seen it, you need to see it.
Speaker 4: Here's the original.
Speaker 6: Audio, right, this is the video that really brought her
Speaker 6: to the world's attention.
Speaker 3: Look the wood.
Speaker 4: Saw Lord, I proceed.
Speaker 3: The wood Nor reading and gosh.
Speaker 4: It's beautiful.
Speaker 6: The sact thing is right that your daughters would sing
Speaker 6: this song, but and so would she, but her circumstances
Speaker 6: are so different.
Speaker 3: That's like, oh gosh.
Speaker 1: Well, the most beautiful part about this is she's obviously
Speaker 1: a very big frozen fane. American actress aDNA Menzel, she
Speaker 1: was the voice of the character Elsa in the movie.
Speaker 1: She tweeted to this seven year old girl and she said,
Speaker 1: we really really see you and I'm about to cry.
Speaker 1: Oh do you know I think the reason why this
Speaker 1: is just it's everybody has latched onto this and especially
Speaker 1: like people have kids themselves like this song and let
Speaker 1: It Go is just like it's this movie and this
Speaker 1: song that children are obsessed with, and it has like
Speaker 1: crossed continents, cross the unifross the country, languages and that
Speaker 1: it's just this one little girl and you see your
Speaker 1: own child in that, and it's like, not that you
Speaker 1: need to be able to look at another child who's
Speaker 1: struggling and be like, oh, compared to my children, but
Speaker 1: just you think, God, what if that was my little girl?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: Off the back of that concert overnight they raised about
Speaker 1: six hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 3: Which is absolutely amazed. I've just a bit of good news. Guys,
Speaker 3: that's all. Oh gosh, you we're all running your cars.
Speaker 4: Probably cry, Laura.
Speaker 6: I think you should be worried because all Brittany said
Speaker 6: about this is that we might lose our jobs.
Speaker 3: Oh God, what have you done?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 1: I may or may not have made a pretty big
Speaker 1: mistake with our boss, our very wait, which boss, like
Speaker 1: the boss, the boss, like the big dog boss. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to name names, but the big boss. Look,
Speaker 1: let's I'm waiting for HR to call me.
Speaker 3: They haven't yet. Maybe maybe I've blocked number.
Speaker 1: Look, this isn't the first time I've done this, and
Speaker 1: this is why it's it's unfortunate for me.
Speaker 3: You think I would have let my lesson.
Speaker 2: But if it didn't work out the first time, why
Speaker 2: did you do it a second?
Speaker 3: It was an accident.
Speaker 1: What I was doing was I was texting the Big
Speaker 1: Boss the other day. He was texting me. I was
Speaker 1: being very professional texting back.
Speaker 6: Id you love to text the Big Boss. By the way,
Speaker 6: I would never text the Big Boss, but Britt is
Speaker 6: texting them all the texting.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not on texting. What's going on?

Speaker 1: SIH can read them out and if you want, you
Speaker 1: can reply to the text by voice and they send them.
Speaker 1: Phones are way too smart these days. Well, so I thought,
Speaker 1: so he's just texted me something really serius about this meeting,
Speaker 1: looking forward to the meeting. So I left it because
Speaker 1: I was like, the conversations and you know, no when
Speaker 1: to play it cool?

Speaker 1: got a message that said baby, baby baby.
Speaker 3: Oh. It was written that so much because there's no context. Context.
Speaker 1: So he said he thought that he had said looking
Speaker 1: forward to seeing you, and I said.
Speaker 3: Baby, baby, baby. Oh it was radio silence. He never
Speaker 3: wrote back no, because he's probably on the phone to HR.

Speaker 5: it gets a little harder to meet people. And you know,
Speaker 5: today it's all on these apps Tinder, Bumble, hinge, and
Speaker 5: it's not really my thing. I had tried them previously
Speaker 5: in the past and they hadn't really worked for me.
Speaker 5: And you know, I'd been set up with people who
Speaker 5: tried to set me up with friends and whatnot. But
Speaker 5: again that wasn't sort of clicking. So you know, I thought,
Speaker 5: why not go and see what the experts can find
Speaker 5: for me.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, they didn't do a very good job on setting
Speaker 2: you and Carolina up. I mean, you've been on the
Speaker 2: right side of a cheating scandal in that you haven't
Speaker 2: been embroiled in it. But how is this all unfolded
Speaker 2: when you're in this experiment and you find out that Carolina,
Speaker 2: your wife, has been having an affair. Did you feel
Speaker 2: like you had been cheated on, like in real world
Speaker 2: cheated on?
Speaker 5: Look? I mean I felt that the way was handled
Speaker 5: because throughout the whole experiment, it wasn't like Carolina had
Speaker 5: said to me. You know what, I've actually got feelings
Speaker 5: for another person who has left the experiment, and I
Speaker 5: would prefer to just cut ties now and keep and
Speaker 5: keep pursuing. But Carolina kept each week saying I don't try.
Speaker 5: I'm not putting enough effort in. So it was almost
Speaker 5: like she was baiting me to keep trying, which I was. Yeah,
Speaker 5: there was no it's over. I prefer to go with
Speaker 5: someone else. I would have preferred if she had just
Speaker 5: said to me, you know what, I've met Daniel at
Speaker 5: the first dinner party. I've got a real connection with
Speaker 5: him after five minutes of talking and.
Speaker 3: Oh the little slide did there. I'm here for it.
Speaker 5: Rather than just lead me on. Now, I know she
Speaker 5: said that we didn't have a connection, but she kept saying,
Speaker 5: you know, you don't try, you don't do this, you
Speaker 5: don't do that. And that was me trying to make
Speaker 5: those efforts to try and make it work in the
Speaker 5: hope that, you know what, it could potentially work if
Speaker 5: I do show that.
Speaker 1: I mean, that response from somebody in any type of
Speaker 1: relationship makes you think that, oh, they still want it,
Speaker 1: this is what they.
Speaker 3: Need from me to continue.
Speaker 1: So it feels like they are like lurding, you know,
Speaker 1: a false sense of security.
Speaker 5: And we go on these shows to do the things
Speaker 5: that were not normally used to or you know, try
Speaker 5: and be compatible with people that we're not usstantly normal too,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, Dion, obviously tensions were pretty high at
Speaker 1: the reunion party. Was it better or worse than what
Speaker 1: we saw?
Speaker 5: It was pretty awkward, to be quite honest with you.
Speaker 5: It wasn't far off what you saw.
Speaker 2: We've been seeing quite a lot because obviously Carolina and
Speaker 2: and You'll are still together. And I think anyone who
Speaker 2: does a quick search of the Daily mail has seen
Speaker 2: that there's been quite a few pap shots that have
Speaker 2: been circulating around, maybe staged, you know, who knows. But
Speaker 2: how do you feel seeing that they're still in this,
Speaker 2: you know, seemingly happy relationship.
Speaker 11: Yeah, bond I wasn't allowed to go with it, so yeah, Look,
Speaker 11: I mean, guys, at the end of the day, I'm
Speaker 11: not one the hole grudges or be vindictive in any way.
Speaker 5: If they're still together, and they actually do have a
Speaker 5: connection and they end up together, all the very best
Speaker 5: of both of them. I don't really have much more
Speaker 5: to say other than.
Speaker 1: That, would you go back next year like we saw
Speaker 1: Lizzie do a few years ago?
Speaker 3: Are you just like this is cooked? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think my days are finding love on TV
Speaker 5: are over.
Speaker 3: Look, I went back a second time.
Speaker 5: At the end of the day. Who knows. Look, it's
Speaker 5: definitely out there, it's just when it will come down.
Speaker 2: I have a bit of a sneaky, saucy question for you.
Speaker 2: I've been seeing some rumors that maybe there's been a
Speaker 2: bit of recoupling after the show. What do you think
Speaker 2: of Tamara and Mitch?
Speaker 9: What do I think?
Speaker 5: I mean, they're nice people. I see them a little
Speaker 5: bit up on the Gold Coast. They work in the
Speaker 5: same building. I know that for a fact that she
Speaker 5: used to work in that building as well contry, so
Speaker 5: it's very hard not to be caught the scene together. Okay,
Speaker 5: when you work in the same office building, that sounds.
Speaker 3: Like it's still very suspicious.
Speaker 1: Din Before we let you go, do you have any regret?
Speaker 5: Guys, I have not one regret whatsoever. I had an
Speaker 5: amazing experience, even though I played out the way it did.
Speaker 5: I've made some lifelong friends, you know, cast members, but
Speaker 5: even crewmen, from the cameraman to the sound man. You know,
Speaker 5: I made friends with everybody, and I'm just very grateful
Speaker 5: to have been given such an amazing opportunity to be
Speaker 5: a part of something so special.
Speaker 3: It's funny you say that.
Speaker 1: Laura and I are still very good friends with a
Speaker 1: lot of the cast and crew from our Bachelor seasons
Speaker 1: as well, so we can appreciate you.
Speaker 2: Do you make lifelong friends. You have been a rock
Speaker 2: star on the show. You've been such a gentleman, and
Speaker 2: you have been a joy to watch.
Speaker 11: Thank you, thanks for coming on today.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 6: Berty Masters Sunday seven pm. On Monday Tuesday seven thirty
Speaker 6: on Channel Night and nine.
Speaker 2: Now The Life on Cut Radio Show with and Laura
Speaker 2: Burn And.
Speaker 6: If you're in a relationship, you' struggling a little bit
Speaker 6: at the moment and you need some advice. The girls
Speaker 6: have a very big episode coming up on the Life
Speaker 6: on Cut podcast. We'll talk about that next.
Speaker 1: Yeah, before we give too much away, you can listen
Speaker 1: to Life Uncut for your relationship advice when we do
Speaker 1: have an episode relationship. Sorry not to do to anything.
Speaker 1: We say that every so often we speak to people
Speaker 1: who all qualify. That's exactly what's going on this week. Laura,
Speaker 1: what have you got for us today? You've been holding
Speaker 1: onto a little story.
Speaker 2: Well, I want to know firstly, how do you guys
Speaker 2: both feel about picking up things from the side of
Speaker 2: the road. And what I mean is it's like when
Speaker 2: there's a council cleanup, or like you're driving down the
Speaker 2: street and there might be a nice little side table
Speaker 2: or something. How do you feel about turning somebody else's
Speaker 2: trash into your brand new treasure and literally.
Speaker 1: Did it two weeks I'm about it. So two weeks
Speaker 1: ago you picked up what did you pick up that.
Speaker 3: Whole big table in my backyard?
Speaker 4: You know, the wooden table. Yeah?
Speaker 3: I got yeah, great, fine. I even had to stop
Speaker 3: some people on the side of the road master them
Speaker 3: to bring it into my yard.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm all for it.
Speaker 3: I don't think there's anything.
Speaker 2: If you see something that you think is great and
Speaker 2: it's gonna go to the tip anyway, then you should
Speaker 2: pick it up. And like I over the years, originally
Speaker 2: Matt used to think that it was really weird, and
Speaker 2: now I've got him doing it as well.
Speaker 3: This is absolutely going to end up in the Daily mail.
Speaker 3: Laura and Matt go out scavenging council cleaning and then
Speaker 3: resell it.
Speaker 2: So Matt comes home the other day and he's got
Speaker 2: these two massive beauty like they're obviously a little they've
Speaker 2: seen better days, but they're pretty beautiful. They're these big,
Speaker 2: big baskets and we were like, oh, we can put
Speaker 2: some plants in them. In the meantime, I decided I'd
Speaker 2: put all the kids toys in them and put them
Speaker 2: in the lounge ry and whilst we figured out what
Speaker 2: we're gonna do with them. They're like two big wicker baskets.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I was like, Matt, a good find. I'm
Speaker 3: loving these.
Speaker 2: Anyway, Yesterday, my neighborhood lives directly next door to me.
Speaker 3: She comes over. He didn't tell me that he took
Speaker 3: them from the neighbor. So she walked into.
Speaker 2: The house and she was like, oh my basket.
Speaker 1: Okay, let me just clarify something. Was she actually getting
Speaker 1: rid of them or did he steal like a delivery
Speaker 1: to her house.
Speaker 2: No, they were old and she was throwing them away. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but it's awkward that we've taken our neighbors trash and
Speaker 2: didn't acknowledge it. She was standing in the room for
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes before she was like, is someone going to
Speaker 2: acknowledge that you stole my garbage? You took my garbage
Speaker 2: that was sitting on top of my bin. I think
Speaker 2: it's okay.
Speaker 1: Someone else's trash is another person's treasure.
Speaker 3: I'm glad.
Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's great, But I don't
Speaker 1: think what was he going to do knock on the
Speaker 1: door and say, just so FYI, I'm going to take
Speaker 1: your baskets in case you ever comes to mind.
Speaker 2: I feel like he could have given me a heads
Speaker 2: up so that when I invited them around, I could
Speaker 2: have at least put them in another.
Speaker 4: Room so they won't over them.
Speaker 3: They were literally like front and Glory when you walked in.
Speaker 3: It was the first thing he saw, all piled up
Speaker 3: with the kids, the kids toys in their trash. It
Speaker 3: would have been funnier.
Speaker 1: It would have been funnier if they came over and
Speaker 1: they were like nice baskets, thinking you new, and then
Speaker 1: you panicked because you didn't want to admit it, and
Speaker 1: so I just bought them.
Speaker 3: That would have been funny.
Speaker 4: You just got them from cover project this morning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're great. They're the last two left. Though. She
Speaker 3: would have been like what I Oh god, it's too much,
Speaker 3: too much brass, oh god.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 2: Anyway, we have an awesome episode of the podcast coming
Speaker 2: up this week so you can hear more about the
Speaker 2: trials and tribulations of our life. And we are speaking
Speaker 2: to Mark Groves, who is a relationship expert.
Speaker 3: Yes, not us being the experts.
