Speaker 1: Flex and Frooms, the Flex and Frooms catch up Podcastle
Speaker 1: and Rooms. Hey, Freak is always Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 2: This is such a sad week to start, but.
Speaker 1: It's the last week with our producer, isn't it Brookie. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's standing there. Brooks have been through thick and thing
Speaker 1: with us, but we'll say about her on Friday.
Speaker 2: Not through thick and thin.
Speaker 3: Posts, ups and downs, through thicken things, but you always be.
Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever had a fight.
Speaker 4: Not yet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've definitely pisched. I've definitely pisched you off.
Speaker 1: Won't say we I'm done and implicating Flex and brook
Speaker 1: I'll okate Brooks just because we're more bush pigs together.
Speaker 1: Brooks said, we're very similar. She didn't say that, Bob. Anyway,
Speaker 1: let's get to the podcast.
Speaker 2: She didn't say that about you.
Speaker 3: See, if we were toddlers, I think we would be
Speaker 3: in physical fights. Oh highercent be pulling hair and they'll
Speaker 3: be playing with blocks afterwards.
Speaker 4: Do you want to share?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Literally, we just fucking would. This is flex and Kata.
Speaker 3: The thing is, when we were in high school and
Speaker 3: we were learning education, we should have been learning about
Speaker 3: friendship group dynamics, because, unlike most things that we were
Speaker 3: forced to remember in that time, this would be the
Speaker 3: most important. If you look back on your high school
Speaker 3: experience and you really start to unpack it, the dynamics
Speaker 3: there were so important for you to understand the way
Speaker 3: that the world works and the way that friendships were.
Speaker 3: You know, like at the time, you don't really think
Speaker 3: about am I cool? Am I the glue of the
Speaker 3: friendship group?
Speaker 1: Do people need me here?
Speaker 2: What is my value? What is my role? You just
Speaker 2: play and have your best friends.
Speaker 1: Are you sure? Are I talking primary or high?
Speaker 2: I'm talking high.
Speaker 1: I think about a lot about that. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe because I wasn't the.
Speaker 4: Cool I.
Speaker 1: Had to like keep from my no because you were
Speaker 1: in the cool group. Yeah, No, it was definitely. I
Speaker 1: think it's always thought about dynamics for sure. Maybe not
Speaker 1: the glue thing.
Speaker 3: I definitely I always thought dynaunced with me and my
Speaker 3: best friends, Like I was always really hyper aware of
Speaker 3: you know, are we still as close?
Speaker 2: Are we still close? Are we still close?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: But with everybody else it's like we're just we're just
Speaker 3: the group groups. We all need to be here. But
Speaker 3: I came across this TikTok video about this guy saying
Speaker 3: in a really unnecessary complex way that the glue in
Speaker 3: a friendship group is more complex than we could have
Speaker 3: ever known.
Speaker 2: Oh do I disagree? I'm not sure yet.
Speaker 6: Have you ever noticed that in every friend group there's
Speaker 6: one permutational hangout that doesn't really work? And what I
Speaker 6: mean by that is, let's say you have a friend
Speaker 6: group with like six guys in it, and they're all
Speaker 6: buddies individually. But if you were to take three of
Speaker 6: those guys, like let's call them Jake, Bill and Bob. Jake,
Speaker 6: Bill and Bob all like each other, but when they
Speaker 6: hang out as a trio, they don't really have like
Speaker 6: a good vibe. And then if you bring everyone else back,
Speaker 6: all the other guys in the vibe, vibe is like restored.
Speaker 6: You're back at equilibrium and things just go well and
Speaker 6: it's not like they're enemies, but it's almost kind of
Speaker 6: like certain individuals within the friend group represent certain periodic elements,
Speaker 6: and if you remove the presence of specific elements, then
Speaker 6: the relationships become unstable.
Speaker 1: He's one of my kings because no, no, no, he's coming
Speaker 1: to He's talking about the periodic table. Have I ever
Speaker 1: looked at a period of tib oh Okay, No, However,
Speaker 1: he's adding in little tiny elements to perd mutation. I said,
Speaker 1: what he's bolstering up this theory. I totally see the
Speaker 1: vision in terms of you take a few people out
Speaker 1: and put them into a room together, the vibes off.
Speaker 1: I personally believe if I'm going down my evil route,
Speaker 1: that is because if you have a group of six people,
Speaker 1: there's someone who's getting like, who's the butt of the joke,
Speaker 1: and there's someone who is doing the jokes and everyone's
Speaker 1: laughing along. I think that's typical group dynamics.
Speaker 2: Especially in my school.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So if you get like the bottom three and
Speaker 1: put them together, I'm sorry, then the middle person's starting
Speaker 1: to play the top.
Speaker 3: Person, yeah, because they're like, well, yeah, that's.
Speaker 1: Hitting different because the bottom person's like, no, you don't
Speaker 1: get to be the middle person. You're down in the trenches.
Speaker 2: Exactly one of us. Yeah, be put back.
Speaker 1: In your place. Do these continue as an adult maybe
Speaker 1: in more suther ways?
Speaker 2: I would say definitely.
Speaker 3: I think group dynamics and the way they manifest are
Speaker 3: definitely more subtle in your adulthood because you aren't having
Speaker 3: to clock in sixty hours of friendship group dynamics. So
Speaker 3: maybe you notice that every other birthday party, you know,
Speaker 3: the dynamics start to form, and people want to sit
Speaker 3: at the different end of the table, and groups are
Speaker 3: coming together or arranging an after party or so on
Speaker 3: and so forth. But it's not as offensive because I
Speaker 3: have other friends, I want to hang out with, other
Speaker 3: places I want to go to, et cetera, et cetera,
Speaker 3: et cetera. But I do like thinking about the concept
Speaker 3: because it is both humbling and even eating to think
Speaker 3: about where you.
Speaker 2: Fit in the world. Do you think so, yeah, humbling
Speaker 2: in the.
Speaker 3: Sense that it's really easy to make you It's really
Speaker 3: easy to think that the role you play in the
Speaker 3: places you navigate like bigger or more important than they are.
Speaker 3: And then sometimes it's nice to walk into a space
Speaker 3: and think, damn, you really did.
Speaker 2: Need me here.
Speaker 3: It didn't give it before I came. And I appreciate that,
Speaker 3: you know, I see. But with your nearest and dearest,
Speaker 3: I started saying, maybe about three years ago, that I
Speaker 3: didn't like hanging in groups because I noticed it felt
Speaker 3: like high school and I couldn't figure out why, and
Speaker 3: I said before that my high school experience was quite
Speaker 3: cool because, in addition to having two groups of core
Speaker 3: best friends that were part of bigger groups, I just
Speaker 3: was able to float between heaps of groups, and I
Speaker 3: always like I had a good time. But that didn't
Speaker 3: mean that I wasn't observing other people not having a
Speaker 3: good time, or other people having a bad time, or
Speaker 3: not feeling safe comfortable. And you know, it's not fun
Speaker 3: to be a bystander, but it's also not fun to
Speaker 3: be everybody's warrior. So I see these group dynamics the
Speaker 3: same people fighting to be heard or being cut off
Speaker 3: or being the butt of the joke, And it's funny
Speaker 3: until it's not. And then you find yourself in this
Speaker 3: precarious position where you're like, I can't be bothered doing
Speaker 3: this again. So when I do hang out in a
Speaker 3: group situation, you might notice I break off into a
Speaker 3: little conversation. So I don't have to be across the
Speaker 3: what's the word I'm looking for, I don't have to
Speaker 3: be across the way the dynamics devolve.
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's because you often assume that position
Speaker 1: that like comes naturally too.
Speaker 2: It's not assumed people do it to you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they'll be like, oh, Lexie, you've got a story, right,
Speaker 3: and it's like, no, I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do it.
Speaker 4: Oh, it's just like and it's not.
Speaker 3: I think it's one of those things where people assume
Speaker 3: I'm an extra by circumstance, not by default. I constantly
Speaker 3: go into big rooms and sit in the corner and
Speaker 3: people pull me back in, pull me back in, put
Speaker 3: me back in. I don't want to be there. I
Speaker 3: could choose to be there if I wanted to. And
Speaker 3: there are some instances where I'm like, no, this is fun.
Speaker 3: I want to have a group conversation. But then the
Speaker 3: same thing happens, so people are like, this is good,
Speaker 3: less eyes on me, we can talk about you. I
Speaker 3: was like, no, I want to talk about all of
Speaker 3: us and all of our things, you know so, But
Speaker 3: instead I don't like that feeling. And we've spoken about
Speaker 3: it before of having to police the way people do
Speaker 3: their stuff. So I don't want to go into a
Speaker 3: group and be like nobody a minion. I just don't
Speaker 3: want to do group things unless I'm with my nearest
Speaker 3: endearest and they get how it functions. It's interesting because
Speaker 3: it's I feel like, yeah, you don't get it unless
Speaker 3: you get it. And when I think people assume that
Speaker 3: if you're good at being social, you must enjoy it,
Speaker 3: and it's like, no, it's a skill.
Speaker 1: What am I good at that? I don't enjoy cleaning? No,
Speaker 1: that's all. I love cleaning, just not anywhere that you
Speaker 1: can see it.
Speaker 2: You're controlling this now. I good at that.
Speaker 3: I don't enjoy being spotless, being a spotless peed. But yeah,
Speaker 3: I keep thinking about it because I feel we could
Speaker 3: talk about social dynamics forever and ever and ever, because
Speaker 3: they're very subtle in the way that we observe them
Speaker 3: in other people. But obviously from your own experience, everything
Speaker 3: feels really amplified and personal.
Speaker 1: Definitely more where that came from. You always flex and firms.
Speaker 4: Flex and frooms.
Speaker 3: They're the best word on the street is that careers
Speaker 3: don't actually exist anymore. I don't want to say this
Speaker 3: is true or untrue, because realistically I saw half a
Speaker 3: TikTok and said this, this bops. Basically, someone is suggesting
Speaker 3: or inferring that back in the days you used to
Speaker 3: work for equality of life, where you could physically see
Speaker 3: what you'd work so hard to achieve, the car, the house,
Speaker 3: the holiday, et cetera. Now people are working to survive
Speaker 3: and they're barely scraping by. Everything is expensive, everywhere is inaccessible,
Speaker 3: and for that reason, people don't want to work to
Speaker 3: meet bare minimum. They would rather not work and use
Speaker 3: their wiles to get them to where they need to go.
Speaker 4: But little while TikTok.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wiles, what's the whiles? Their abilities?
Speaker 3: Okay, cool, But listen to this TikTok firm Jordan Underschool
Speaker 3: the underscool stallion eight.
Speaker 5: There is no such thing as a career anymore. Come
Speaker 5: here because nobody wants a career anymore. You want to
Speaker 5: know why. Because the new workforce, the new generation of workforce,
Speaker 5: they're not working for the sake of getting promoted to
Speaker 5: have a good, long lasting job. We are all working
Speaker 5: to survive. You cannot have a career if every single
Speaker 5: day you were worried about if you're going to be
Speaker 5: able to keep your job or not. Companies are not
Speaker 5: instilling any trust at all with their workers. The last
Speaker 5: job I had, there was somebody who was working at
Speaker 5: that job for about twenty years. You want to know
Speaker 5: what happened. That company laid him off. They fired him
Speaker 5: via email on his day off. So if companies can
Speaker 5: do that, what's the point of actually wanting a career. Now,
Speaker 5: we're just looking for jobs that can pay good enough
Speaker 5: to keep our groceries in our house.
Speaker 3: After I listened to that, I had to Google what
Speaker 3: a career was because I thought am I confused? Google
Speaker 3: says a career as an occupation undertaken for a significant
Speaker 3: period of a person's life, and with opportunities for progress.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which makes sense.
Speaker 4: This makes sense. Careers don't exist, but it's yours.
Speaker 1: Then what are you doing?
Speaker 3: I think I just work. I work jobs. I don't
Speaker 3: think I've done one thing for a significant you know what,
Speaker 3: I would say, I have a career, but the opportunities
Speaker 3: for progress are due to me having nine jobs, right,
Speaker 3: I'm not working at one thing and going up and
Speaker 3: up and up in the ranks and whatever. I'm a
Speaker 3: contractor jumping around creating opportunities for myself under the guise
Speaker 3: of a career. If this was back in the day,
Speaker 3: you'd be like, she's a bloodger, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: She's just jumped from job to job to hobbyists.
Speaker 4: Yeah, do you.
Speaker 1: Really think that it's got something to do with people
Speaker 1: like the whole bare minimum wage, most people not being
Speaker 1: able to scrape period. Do you think that's where this
Speaker 1: disillusionment from career comes from, or the fact that like
Speaker 1: certain careers are withheld for certain people.
Speaker 3: I just think that the generation before us, also our parents' generation,
Speaker 3: the approach to working wasn't meant to be so intertwined
Speaker 3: with satisfaction. It was a means to an end, and
Speaker 3: people really understood that. So you know, when you hear
Speaker 3: that someone's getting paid fifty k year but they're supporting
Speaker 3: their family before, it's because they understood that's what's required.
Speaker 5: Me.
Speaker 3: I've got to work a job to support the family
Speaker 3: that I wanted to have. Now you have people in
Speaker 3: our generation who don't really want to work, don't really
Speaker 3: have families, who are allowed to orbit through the world
Speaker 3: in a very different way to their parents, are given
Speaker 3: this illusion of agency, and it contradicts the kind of
Speaker 3: worker you need to be to work in the way
Speaker 3: that our parents have. And so I feel like the industry,
Speaker 3: like the job force, hasn't changed. It's always been exclusionary
Speaker 3: and exploitative and not that fun. But the means to
Speaker 3: the goal isn't appealing for people anymore. So even if
Speaker 3: you could work the same amount of time and get
Speaker 3: the house eventually at sixty like your family did, or
Speaker 3: eventually get the car, it's well, I don't really want that.
Speaker 2: Do I want to go to Ibifa? Now?
Speaker 1: Do you really think that that's how people feel? Now?
Speaker 3: People do feel that way, but I think it's futile.
Speaker 3: I really don't like to think aspirationally about the world anymore.
Speaker 3: I'm like, for the one that we live in now,
Speaker 3: for the time that I'm going to be alive, I
Speaker 3: need to get my bag so I can enjoy. And
Speaker 3: then you know, they're trying to increase the retirement age
Speaker 3: in France from sixty two to sixty four. They're trying
Speaker 3: to increase retirement ages. So even this idea of getting
Speaker 3: being able to opt out of working so you can
Speaker 3: enjoy your life is going to be a thing of
Speaker 3: the past, of meally, I think people need to be
Speaker 3: a bit more serious about this mentality of not wanting
Speaker 3: to work, though, because they don't have the skills to
Speaker 3: look after themselves. Otherwise, you are not people who have
Speaker 3: got your life skills and orders. You don't know how
Speaker 3: to plant your food from scratch. You don't know how
Speaker 3: to make anything with your hand. You don't know how
Speaker 3: to survive. You know, the truck driver's got COVID and
Speaker 3: everyone's like, wait, I'll just get it eats.
Speaker 4: There's no produce food, eats, sapes. That's not how it works.
Speaker 3: I feel like people like the idea of not working,
Speaker 3: but haven't figured out how to live without a source
Speaker 3: of income. And it's possible people live through poverty like easy,
Speaker 3: you know, like I'm surprised how my mum was able
Speaker 3: to raise three, four or five children on a cleaner salary.
Speaker 3: She didn't did it well. But do I have that
Speaker 3: lust for life or those survival skills. No, And so
Speaker 3: I will maintain capitalism in the way that the big
Speaker 3: dogs of the past have.
Speaker 1: I wonder if it changes when your circumstances changed, like
Speaker 1: when you have a kid. It's like when people say
Speaker 1: I didn't know, like their whole outlook on life changes
Speaker 1: when they have a child and everything they do anything
Speaker 1: for the child. I wonder if that kicks will kick
Speaker 1: certain people into gear of taking work as something that
Speaker 1: is a means to an end rather than something that's fun.
Speaker 1: And you can go up and you can go down
Speaker 1: and you can go sideways. I think it will change
Speaker 1: the way that we look at work.
Speaker 3: I hope it's not just when people have kids, though.
Speaker 3: I think they should get to that point on their
Speaker 3: own time. Now you're gotta be pushed flex And I
Speaker 3: got a question for the Melbourne pedigree in the room
Speaker 3: that is frooms. Do men have to pay more money
Speaker 3: to go to festivals in Melbourne?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Now you don't know.
Speaker 1: I've never even heard of this concept.
Speaker 4: Why did you pause for so long?
Speaker 7: Then?
Speaker 1: I was just trying to think if I did know.
Speaker 1: You know, it's cool to go to festivals. I've been
Speaker 1: to the Dorf of Dolph.
Speaker 4: So I was scrolling as ones does.
Speaker 3: I came across a TikTok from someone called danniel Anstey
Speaker 3: who recently moved from Perth to Melbourne and was recalling
Speaker 3: some of the changes that she had seen and experience
Speaker 3: because she'd assumed that it would be.
Speaker 4: A lot similar.
Speaker 3: She said, the one thing that's like really confusing her
Speaker 3: is why do men have to pay more to go
Speaker 3: to festivals?
Speaker 1: So she says, and.
Speaker 3: I don't know which festival she was talking about, but
Speaker 3: when you go to buy your tickets, you have to
Speaker 3: reveal what your gender identity is, and based on your
Speaker 3: gender identity, the tickets will cost more or less.
Speaker 4: And apparently is what Daniel said, Apparently.
Speaker 3: They do it to ensure the ratio between men and
Speaker 3: women is I don't want to say even, because that's
Speaker 3: not a party. But I don't know what the dominant
Speaker 3: gender is meant to be at these festivals.
Speaker 4: How come you don't know this? I don't even know
Speaker 4: if it's true.
Speaker 1: Is a festival like vight car racing or like the
Speaker 1: air show? Because then I can see that there's a
Speaker 1: I feel.
Speaker 3: Like this is a young music festival vine nothing's coming.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't identify it as a man, so I've
Speaker 1: never been on the receiving end of having to pay.
Speaker 3: You had to, You're okay, I don't also pay. I
Speaker 3: don't also pay you to go to festivals either. They
Speaker 3: organize them for me, so I don't really know how
Speaker 3: I was doing it.
Speaker 1: I'm no, I've never even heard of this, but I
Speaker 1: like it for obvious reasons.
Speaker 4: I mean, what reasons?
Speaker 1: Paying less as a woman seems fair? Seventy eight cents
Speaker 1: to the door. Need I remind you? I don't remind you.
Speaker 1: I think it's cool and I fully back it. I
Speaker 1: want to know what festival this is. I could take
Speaker 1: a random guess, but I'm probably gonna make some enemies
Speaker 1: if I didn't, I'll.
Speaker 2: Take a guess.
Speaker 1: Ad Potentially this is due for Jason.
Speaker 4: Oh, you reckon.
Speaker 1: Maybe I can't think of any of the massive, massive
Speaker 1: festivals doing this and getting away with it, because they'd
Speaker 1: be blowback. There definitely be a blowback on the dams.
Speaker 1: Don't you worry about that?
Speaker 4: Do you like it? Don't comment?
Speaker 1: Great? Imagine me I'm ducking all the festivals. I'm saying
Speaker 1: that women are cool and.
Speaker 3: You meant it with your chest, and I want you
Speaker 3: to be comfortable to express yourself.
Speaker 4: This sound.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say it's fake news, because people's personal
Speaker 3: experiences are real. But I need to know which festivals
Speaker 3: and I need to know why, and I need to
Speaker 3: understand what this ratio is.
Speaker 1: I think this is Perth propaganda. I think this chick's
Speaker 1: come over from Perth and thought. You know, it's not
Speaker 1: all that cracked up to be. I'm gonna make sure
Speaker 1: my other Perth diis ins don't get on the plane
Speaker 1: over what I don't know. I say that's the word
Speaker 1: Mark McGown. It's one of your croonies. Is he stilling power? Okay?
Speaker 4: It is Okita Flex and Frooms Flex and froms.
Speaker 1: My name is Frooms Frumi, Fruminda Frumucci, and I am
Speaker 1: otherwise known as Karen self confessed Karen. As we talk
Speaker 1: about sometimes on the show, you need to be careful
Speaker 1: how you describe yourself in life, because that can be
Speaker 1: how you become. However, this segment is just too good
Speaker 1: to refuse, and it is how do I say, chronicling?
Speaker 1: All the ways in which my behavior could be are
Speaker 1: conceived as Karen esque. I went out to a gig
Speaker 1: the other day. I went out to watch the Slingers
Speaker 1: in Melbourne. They are a rock band, like a garage
Speaker 1: rock band, kind of remind me of like the OC
Speaker 1: the bands you'd seen the OC. If you're familiar with
Speaker 1: that show and.
Speaker 3: Live in the past, why can't your references be from
Speaker 3: the late in two thousands everything, it's gotta be from
Speaker 3: the you two thousand and two thousand and four babes.
Speaker 4: Were here, were here?
Speaker 3: Get into this calendar year.
Speaker 1: Listen. I'll try and update the references. But when the
Speaker 1: references are good.
Speaker 3: You know, OC not even Wat's that one that's a girl,
Speaker 3: that new surf one.
Speaker 4: With John b who Outer Banks, Outer Banks never.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen it, but I just know there would
Speaker 3: be some rock dogs in that one.
Speaker 2: I'm obsessed.
Speaker 1: I watching it for the second time over again. Really,
Speaker 1: I mean, i'd watch it, but I don't really like TV.
Speaker 1: I just liked that.
Speaker 3: Oh miss, I've watched sixteen episode sixteen seasons of Sex
Speaker 3: and the City.
Speaker 2: I don't really watch TV, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's just timeless.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but sorry go.
Speaker 1: However, just before you roasted me, there, went to this
Speaker 1: gig and I rock in. I haven't drunk because I
Speaker 1: just come away from doing a gig myself. I rock
Speaker 1: in and I like trip walking into the club and
Speaker 1: the guy's like, hey, hey, hey, hey hey, and I'm
Speaker 1: like listen, I'm sober, like I got my car keys.
Speaker 1: He's like that's a really bad idea, like did you drive?
Speaker 1: And I was like, king, I'm not a drunk driver.
Speaker 1: Please give me some respects.
Speaker 4: I don't even believe you. Now I'm on his side.
Speaker 4: I feel wait a second, but he.
Speaker 1: Was cheeky, he was young, and he was like, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: let me in, but he's like, you be careful, so
Speaker 1: still thinking that I'm drunk. Next minute, well, like at
Speaker 1: the end of the gig, I leave the mosh that
Speaker 1: we'd gotten into. Thank you to our young surfer king
Speaker 1: who like pulled me through the crowds so much easier
Speaker 1: for pushing people to get through the king surfer type king.
Speaker 3: Oh, I heard server, and I was like, what does
Speaker 3: that mean?
Speaker 1: What does it mean? Glassy? I came out to get
Speaker 1: my mates and beers, you know, not considering that it
Speaker 1: would be very difficult for me to get back in
Speaker 1: through the throngs of people. So I go out get
Speaker 1: the beer and I'm meeling around near the door of
Speaker 1: the festival, sorry, near the door of the gig. I
Speaker 1: look to my left as a bouncer looking at.
Speaker 2: Me hold.
Speaker 4: Two pints of freaking.
Speaker 1: Lager, and I just look at him and go oh,
Speaker 1: And I just knew at that point I can't convince
Speaker 1: his king that I'm not drunk. But I have really
Speaker 1: had to like suppress the Karen to not be like, hey, like,
Speaker 1: I'm not drunk. Like it's just so hard when there
Speaker 1: is a lack of when there's a misrepresentation. I just
Speaker 1: felt so like I just couldn't.
Speaker 3: Maybe he'd recognize you from one of your other occasions
Speaker 3: of getting near it, and he thought, you know what,
Speaker 3: I'm not doing this.
Speaker 1: Again, not doing it again, this one, not this chick now.
Speaker 1: I was very respectful that night.
Speaker 4: Good night.
Speaker 1: I didn't have I didn't have a lick to drink.
Speaker 1: I had a full strength lemonade got me through the night.
Speaker 1: But to that bouncer, I'll be coming back to the
Speaker 1: hotel in Richmond, the Corner Hotel. Go to some amazing gigs.
Speaker 1: If you're in Sydney or any other city and you
Speaker 1: go to Melbourne, make sure you go to the Corner
Speaker 1: and watch some live music and listen. I don't condone
Speaker 1: heavy drinking. In fact, I would say I'm a reformed
Speaker 1: sober person, not through knee, just through want of listening
Speaker 1: to some amazing podcasts about I'm serious. I do not
Speaker 1: condone binge drinking.
Speaker 3: But when you say reformed sober, that means you're not
Speaker 3: sober anymore.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, I'm a reformed like casual drinker. I definitely yeah,
