Speaker 5: Germany? German history, the World War.
Speaker 2: I am trying to learn another language.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to learn German, which I mean I only
Speaker 3: know two languages, English and Australian. But I think German
Speaker 3: is probably the hardest language.
Speaker 2: It's a real guttural type of language. Sexy language. Yes,
Speaker 2: that's exactly what.

Speaker 4: Okay, how how is the learning going so far? Have

Speaker 2: He speaks German, he speaks no. One really knows if
Speaker 2: he even exists.
Speaker 5: He's an AI boy the same.
Speaker 2: I haven't actually made him yet, but I'm pretty sure
Speaker 2: he's real.
Speaker 4: He is going to end up on that TV show Hatfish.
Speaker 3: No, my my boyfriend Ben is Swiss, but they speak German.
Speaker 3: So he's coming here in a few weeks. And I
Speaker 3: thought it would be nice if I made some effort
Speaker 3: and tried to learn German so that he got here
Speaker 3: and I could surprise him.
Speaker 2: But I'm so I'm just doing it on an app.
Speaker 2: I've downloaded app and every time I go for.

Speaker 5: Hallo, you've said yes, hello.
Speaker 2: Hello, dunk shat Sassi's quitsy. What does that mean? That
Speaker 2: said yes? Hello? Thank you sweetheart? That was young? Are
Speaker 2: you using like a duo lingo apple?
Speaker 3: One of those sort of like the babbel app But
Speaker 3: I'm only on a seven day free trial.

Speaker 2: fluent by that time. But listen to okay, listen to this.

Speaker 2: Spin Freddy. My name is the Robinson. I don't think
Speaker 2: you My name is Brittany.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't think that Ben's gonna he may find this endearing,
Speaker 4: but he won't understand you.
Speaker 2: It cooks for me because all I can say so
Speaker 2: far is thank you, sweety. That was young, So he
Speaker 2: better cook something because that's all I got.
Speaker 5: So funny. We'll get that on the German please Bridge.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but let's do an update in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 5: Okay, next time the show.
Speaker 1: Everybody imagine having a kid just to use them for
Speaker 1: their anti aging properties.
Speaker 5: That is what a man overseas has done, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I mean he's going to desperate lengths to
Speaker 4: try and remain youthful, and he is sucked in his
Speaker 4: seventeen year old son to try and do it.
Speaker 1: God, that's next on the Pickup Monday afternoon on the
Speaker 1: Pickup with Britt, Laura and Mitch.
Speaker 5: Here are thanks to Chemi's warehouse head in today. You'll
Speaker 5: love it. It's great savings every day.
Speaker 4: It's not a new thing that people will spend a
Speaker 4: lot of money in order to try and stay young,
Speaker 4: but not as much money as this man in the
Speaker 4: United States in Dallas, Brian Johnson. He's forty five years old.
Speaker 4: He's a tech tycoon, so he's from Silicon Valley, has
Speaker 4: way too much money than since he's been spending two
Speaker 4: million dollars a year to try and retain the youth
Speaker 4: that he would have as a teenager. But the way
Speaker 4: he's going about it, so basically he's been doing blood
Speaker 4: transfusions where they take the plasma out of someone younger
Speaker 4: and inject that back into.
Speaker 2: His own body.
Speaker 5: I've heard about this, which.
Speaker 4: Is very strange. And sounds like it needs to be
Speaker 4: something off the matrix. But the reason why this is
Speaker 4: turned to something that's quite interesting is because he started
Speaker 4: to get blood from his son, who's only seventeen years old.
Speaker 4: His son donated a leter of blood for his dad
Speaker 4: and for also his granddad who's seventy years old. They
Speaker 4: did whatever they did, They got the plasma around of it.
Speaker 4: Then they reinjected that into his dad as a way
Speaker 4: for him to try and stay youthful.
Speaker 2: Now, it's very strange.
Speaker 4: He's gone on to say that he wants to keep
Speaker 4: his internal organs, including his penis and his rectum, very specific,
Speaker 4: youthful and functioning as though they would when he was
Speaker 4: in his early twenties.
Speaker 2: So imagine that.
Speaker 1: Conversation, Sun, come over here, that needs a leader of
Speaker 1: your blood from my penis, Like, I'd love.
Speaker 3: To stay young forever. I get you know why he
Speaker 3: wants to do it, but this is not.
Speaker 2: The right way.
Speaker 3: You can't go and filter out your son's blood.
Speaker 4: But also, your son's only seventeen. They're not even old
Speaker 4: enough to actually consent. And I think when you're putting
Speaker 4: someone who's that age, even though you know obviously it's
Speaker 4: very close to consenting age. You're still their guardian, so
Speaker 4: he would still be able to have control over what
Speaker 4: his son does or doesn't do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently he calls them blood boys. And he screened
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of anonymous donors like young men to
Speaker 1: ensure he was getting blood from a person with an
Speaker 1: ideal BMI And he.
Speaker 2: Is there actually any proof though that this works?
Speaker 1: Well, We've got doctor Zach who's joining is now. We've
Speaker 1: had doctor Zach on the show before. He's a bloody superstar,
Speaker 1: someone who can talk some sense into this.
Speaker 5: Doctor Zach. Is this something that people normally do?
Speaker 6: I normally do?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 6: Depends what should should.
Speaker 5: I do it?
Speaker 3: I think not many people have to spare two million
Speaker 3: dollars a year to drop on blood transfusions.
Speaker 6: No, exactly. I think this is only one part of
Speaker 6: what he's doing. If you have a look at a
Speaker 6: lot of the things he's talking about, If your goal
Speaker 6: is to kind of live longer and live better, what
Speaker 6: are you willing to sacrifice or what are the small
Speaker 6: things you're willing to do now rather than jump straight
Speaker 6: to blood transfusion. Because we've proved this many years ago
Speaker 6: with mice and putting them together that it does help,
Speaker 6: but you shouldn't really get yourself to your son in
Speaker 6: that way, I don't think.
Speaker 4: But so basically he's he's seen it in rodents, Like
Speaker 4: there's some evidence that it works in mice basically where
Speaker 4: this is so gross, but they basically stitched some mice together,
Speaker 4: a young mouse and old mouse, and then there was
Speaker 4: some proof that it kind of helped the old mouse.
Speaker 2: It just sounds truly disgusting.
Speaker 6: It was like thirty years ago in Russia that the
Speaker 6: first it's catchy called parabiosis, and they ended up merging
Speaker 6: some of their small circulation parts together so that it
Speaker 6: would filter. But the idea of this is that it's
Speaker 6: actually filtering through the younger mouse, So the mouse is
Speaker 6: processing and filtering away a lot of the toxins and
Speaker 6: things that you do get as your older So just
Speaker 6: having a random transfusion here and there is not going
Speaker 6: to cut it because you've got leaders of blood.
Speaker 2: I didn't think of that.
Speaker 3: That's a really good point because it's actually been filtered
Speaker 3: through like the kidneys and the liver of the young mouse,
Speaker 3: so it's completely different. Like at surface levels, when you
Speaker 3: look at that, you're like Oh, yeah, that's just the
Speaker 3: blood transfusion.
Speaker 5: But it's not definitely not.
Speaker 6: Another part is that he's got probably five six seven
Speaker 6: liters of blood in him. He's taking one and blood
Speaker 6: only is basically alive for about one hundred and twenty days,
Speaker 6: red blood cells that is, and so he's putting that in.
Speaker 6: It's like one seven. So he's got like say fifteen
Speaker 6: seventeen percent of his blood that's being changed, but it
Speaker 6: could be the older part to the blood cells from
Speaker 6: the sun.
Speaker 4: Do you think that this is dangerous, that what he's
Speaker 4: actually doing could be dangerous to himself or putting his
Speaker 4: son into danger one.
Speaker 6: Hundred percent, yes, very much. So. Look, there are reasons
Speaker 6: for doing dialysis, and I think dialysis is probably an
Speaker 6: easier first step, so it's not actually coming through or
Speaker 6: using another person's blood, where you can go and you
Speaker 6: can have a closed system where your blood can get
Speaker 6: filtered and potentially I think money is better spent looking
Speaker 6: at filtration and ways in which we can remove potentially age.
Speaker 6: We call them the sinescent cells, like old cells are
Speaker 6: a little bit senile. That's kind of where the word
Speaker 6: comes from.
Speaker 2: I can definitely think of something better.
Speaker 4: I'd like to spend my two million dollars on if
Speaker 4: I ever had that, that's for sure.
Speaker 5: Thanks doctor Zach, appreciate it.
Speaker 4: Could you imagine having that much money, that much money,
Speaker 4: you could even be bothered to spend two million dollars
Speaker 4: on something that you're that obsessed about.
Speaker 5: I think it's really dangerous, to be perfectly honest with you.
Speaker 2: I just think it's pretty problematic.
Speaker 1: Okay, next time the pickup. We all know cheating can
Speaker 1: really can ruin your day, can't.
Speaker 2: It can ruin your life, but yeah, you can ruin
Speaker 2: your relationship. That's what it can definitely can.
Speaker 1: Cheating is very hard to come back from. But a
Speaker 1: groom in the US has dropped an absolute bombshell on
Speaker 1: his cheating wife. Oh my, it's Game of Thrones worthy.
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you the story next on the pick
Speaker 1: it's the pickup for your Monday afternoon, Britt, Laura and
Speaker 1: Mitch here or thanks to Chemists Warehouse. Right now, this
Speaker 1: is massive. They're doing a half price of cosmetics and
Speaker 1: it's like, not just it's a good one. It's Mabeline
Speaker 1: Revlon Rimmel, Nude by Nature, all those ranges at Chemists Warehouse.
Speaker 2: I use every one of those.
Speaker 4: Actually, well, if you need to go and get yourself
Speaker 4: in your mascara, which I do, is not bad.
Speaker 5: Pat into chmists warehouse.
Speaker 1: Hey, you know how we love a good wedding story
Speaker 1: here at the pickup, we do, I mean love a
Speaker 1: good cheating story.
Speaker 2: Not as much as we love a success story. Geez.
Speaker 5: We love the.
Speaker 1: Positive too, But we also love to shine light on
Speaker 1: those shitty moments that everyone can relate to. Everyone's either
Speaker 1: been raised mans, you've been cheated on. Everyone in the studios.
Speaker 1: It's not a nice scene.
Speaker 2: I'm just disappointing that everyone in here has been cheated on.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: But you know what the best part about cheating is,
Speaker 1: it's the revenge that you get on the X after
Speaker 1: this groom in the US got revenge on his cheating
Speaker 1: wife and a cheating best man in the ultimate way possible,
Speaker 1: getting ready for the wedding. They've been together for years,
Speaker 1: all right, happy couple. So it seems he finds a
Speaker 1: photo of that they've clearly taken together, of the two
Speaker 1: of them having sex. Man, this fiance sleeping with his
Speaker 1: best man.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, Grace.
Speaker 2: Why you're taking photos of that stuff'd.
Speaker 3: Cheating is one thing, but also cheating with the friend,
Speaker 3: the groomsman, the best friend.
Speaker 1: No, I think it's good because what he did was
Speaker 1: he had dropped himself those photos. You were not going
Speaker 1: to sit on these kept those photos. The wedding came around,
Speaker 1: he told all his family, all his side of the
Speaker 1: family knew, his mom, his sisters, his cousins, they all
Speaker 1: knew exactly what was going on, and they came up
Speaker 1: with a plant. The plan was, let's do this wedding,
Speaker 1: you know, because the wife is paying for it. The
Speaker 1: wife's family, she's got just cashed up. She's paying for
Speaker 1: this whole wedding. Let's have the best night of her lives.
Speaker 1: Let's have a brilliant party.
Speaker 5: So they did.
Speaker 1: They had the wedding, They got married, walked down the aisle,
Speaker 1: kiss It was all beautiful. The wife had no idea
Speaker 1: that he knew. The next morning at recovery breakfast, because
Speaker 1: you know, weddings, you invite all the family.
Speaker 5: Yeah in the morning, Yeah, Laura, you did that. The
Speaker 5: next day it was beautiful, lovely.
Speaker 2: Well, time to celebrate.
Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe a time.
Speaker 1: To get that photo of your wife sleeping with your
Speaker 1: best man. Put it in a hundred envelopes, hand it
Speaker 1: to every guest on the wife's side of the family,
Speaker 1: open it and Mike drop walk out.
Speaker 5: That's how he revealed she.
Speaker 3: Wish she did the photo in and gave it to
Speaker 3: everyone at the wedding, at.
Speaker 5: The breakfast, at the breakfast the next day. Why at
Speaker 5: power move?
Speaker 4: Why wouldn't you do it at the wedding, Why have
Speaker 4: the wedding if you got her out her, why.
Speaker 2: Would you go through with actually getting married and then
Speaker 2: doing it at the recovery.
Speaker 5: So Game of thrones.
Speaker 1: The father of the bride does his thing the next day.
Speaker 1: Thank you everyone, becoming what a beautiful night last night.
Speaker 1: He sits down, has no idea. The groom stands up
Speaker 1: and he says, just before i'd properly like to get started.
Speaker 5: With my speech. This is a direct quote.
Speaker 1: There are some envelopes coming around now, and he got
Speaker 1: his sisters and his friends to start handing out these
Speaker 1: envelopes to all of the guests on the girl's side
Speaker 1: of the family. If you could all open them up now,
Speaker 1: they're pictures, yes, as you see, of the bride effing
Speaker 1: the best man.
Speaker 5: So I will be leaving now.
Speaker 1: He drops the microphone him and all his family knew
Speaker 1: about it, all got up choreographed, and they all left
Speaker 1: and the bride had to pay for everything.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I would have had to have opened
Speaker 4: that envelope.
Speaker 2: You'd have to see what's inside, right, Well, I mean
Speaker 2: we know what's inside.
Speaker 3: No, but like he said, he gave the envelope and
Speaker 3: said inside as a photo. But that means people could
Speaker 3: have had the choice to open or not.
Speaker 5: I'm opening it.
Speaker 2: I'm seeing that She's like, no, I'd burn it. Oh no,
Speaker 2: I would, of course I would open it.
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking, like, I know that getting revenge can
Speaker 4: sometimes feel good, But I don't know whether I'd have
Speaker 4: it in me to go through with the wedding, to
Speaker 4: stand there at the altar, to say all these nice,
Speaker 4: lovely things, to sign the wedding page.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of effort just to say, to do
Speaker 2: a big few at the end. But he must have
Speaker 2: felt good with the mic drop walk away. You must
Speaker 2: pretty good.
Speaker 5: But pretend we're not the bride dog groom here. Just
Speaker 5: pretend you're a cousin.
Speaker 1: You know, I'd get that photo and I'd go to
Speaker 1: the buffer and I'd get scrambled eggs.
Speaker 5: I get the hash.
Speaker 3: Browns a story for the for the ages, like you
Speaker 3: repeat that story.
Speaker 1: It's great, so good, said it happened to any of us?
Speaker 5: Has it happened to.
Speaker 1: You, Laura?
Speaker 2: I mean no, I can. I can very much say that.
Speaker 4: At my wedding, I didn't find out that Matt was
Speaker 4: shagging my bridesmaid. But I did find out that my
Speaker 4: ex was cheating on me. And he had a Samsung phone.
Speaker 4: Should have known from having a Samsung it's a red flag. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I was like, who doesn't have a night no Sea
Speaker 4: the Samsung phone And in the messages they display like emails,
Speaker 4: so it's not just like you know, an inbox or
Speaker 4: a scent messages. It has like inbox spam sent messages
Speaker 4: all the different kind of settings. Anyway, I was in
Speaker 4: checking his messages because I didn't trust him when I
Speaker 4: thought he was cheating on me.
Speaker 2: Healthy relationship, I don't know, it was very bad.
Speaker 4: And I was checking through his messages and as I
Speaker 4: was in there, there was a text message that came
Speaker 4: through and it said do you want to take this
Speaker 4: number out of spam? And what he'd done is all
Speaker 4: the girls he'd been you know, bumping uglies with he
Speaker 4: had put their phone number into the spam folder and
Speaker 4: so they.
Speaker 2: Were all hidden in spam on the phone. Then I
Speaker 2: found them all, all the girls.
Speaker 5: I reckon, we can get better stories in that. How
Speaker 5: are you?
