13
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: I swear I do not normally sweeg like that. I'm

00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: We'll not split it like. I'm going to start by

24
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: a little Melb's recap because I kept a dory, I

25
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: shaped a few diaries of Melbourne. I'm a bit of

26
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: a note taker. I'm a triple virgo, so I love lists.

27
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,480

Speaker 1: Fridays after that. So as far as pod World goes,

34
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 1: you're going to have Monday guests. I've got an amazing

35
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,480

36
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: a sustainable Crimbo. So that's coming out Monday, and then

37
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: the following Monday. After that, Boss and I do a

38
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,359

41
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: I should talk to you first and then search again

42
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: for the notes. I'll put a pen next. I think

43
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: that's so yeah, So you've got a sustainability expert on Monday,

44
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: then of course a Friday diary again. Then you'll have

45
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: I think it's Monday the twentieth, Boss, and I can

46
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: do our final for the year, like a recap and

47
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: a Crimbo episode. And then on Friday, the twenty fourth

48
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: is just Christmas Eve. You will still get a Friday diary.

49
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: It would be a Christmas Eve Friday diary cause I think

50
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: Barroning Christmas in Byron Bay, which is where we're spending

51
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: our Christmas, is a really magical place to be. So

52
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: I want to share a little bit of that with you,

53
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: and you may have plans to come here or around

54
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: here over some months. I'll tell you everything we're doing.

55
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: What else to tell you today? Monday's guest the week

56
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: that was just gone was Chef Campbell, Chef Sam Campbell,

57
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: who is the creator and owner of Woods. We're actually

58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: going to Woods tomorrow night. They're just they're launching a

59
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: Taco night. Oh can of wait? So they do nights

60
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: as well, even though it's like a daytime cafe, so

61
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: they did past nights. I think that switched to Taco

62
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: Nights now, and then I think they've got Peruvia Night

63
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: this Friday and Japanese Friday next Friday. I want to

64

Speaker 1: go to them all. But in exciting news, I am

65
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,440

00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: all sorted. Anyway, let's start with I think I know

72
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,720

73
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: with malbs and I'm just checking my notes again because

74
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: I think I just figured out where they are in

75
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: my head. Sometimes just need a little bit of time away.

76
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: And then your writers, Rain, did you like the Ursula

Speaker 1: very very cool, and I found my Melbourne list. Okay,

82
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: so formata today. I thought I'd be like, really er,

83
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: I had this planned for ages in my head. I'll

84
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, this is what we're gonna do. Anyway,

85
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: I apologize, Let's start malbs all right. So we went

86
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: to Melbourne. We flew in on Thursday. I was so

87
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 1: lucky to be given a Honda, so I did like

88
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: an influencer deal for a Honda. We had an HIV.

89
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: It was really beautiful and it had all the mod cons,

90
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: all the bells and whistles, sunroof, these magic chairs in

91
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: the back that fit extra space and Apple Carblay, which

92
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: is like my favorite thing because I listened to podcasts

93
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: and I love listening to music. And so there was

94
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: a bit of driving around to do in this mail street. Oh,

95
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: I just looked at my levels, so loud bosses going

96
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 1: to be angry. I fixed some boss So yeah, we

97
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: got in Thursday, just after you know, early Avo picked

98
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: the Hondra up. I had acting school that afternoon, so

99
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: I'd prepared a monologue I think I was talking to

100
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: in the diary saying that that's what I was when

101
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: I was telling the stuff I was doing. So I

102
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: had been working with my amazing dialect coach, Matt, and

103
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: then I booked a private with my teacher in Melbourne

104
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: and I put this New York monologue up for him.

105
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: And then because I wanted it to, you know, have

106
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: some props and some they call it doings in the

107
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: school that I trained in LA, I had like in

108
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: my carry on, I'd got all these props and some

109
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: of the props for this monologue were Playboy magazine, so

110
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: I had these but vintage. So I had these like

111
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: eighties Playboy magazines, rock them into school and so yeah, anyway,

112
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: very fun and it was so much fun, so nice

113
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: to train. I haven't done any training since LA other

114
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: than dialect stuff, and I've worked heavily on with my

115
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: dialect coach on the audiobook for Philasy failing as well.

116
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: So that was unreal. And then it was also Dad's

117
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: birthday that day, so after that we picked I went

118
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: back to Dad's place, picked him up and we took

119
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: him to dinner, and we took him to a place

120
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: called Ascot Food and Wine. And our mate, chef Dave

121
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: is incredible and completely treated Dad like a king a

122
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: birthday king and Dad turned seventy, so it was like

123
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: a big fun celebration. I got a martini Boss Gott

124
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: and the Groans. Dad got a really yummy wine, and

125
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: then we ordered like I don't know, like an entree

126
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: at a main eche, but Dave sent out all this

127
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: extra stuff so we literally rolled out of there. It

128
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: was so delicious. It was real European but real simple

129
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: flavors but really really just light but fresh and so yummy.

130
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: I got this, like my main was like I'm pretty

131
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: sure it's snapper or was it swordfish? And it had

132
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: muscles on top, was all like baked in like paper,

133
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: and it had carrots. I feel like I took photos

134
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: of everything. Let me see. I feel like the mel

135
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: of it had like carrots and celery and then muscles

136
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: on top was really really good. They even brought out

137
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: gluten free desserts. It was delicious. So if you ever

138
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: in Melbourne a scot Food and Wine, they are a

139
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: cafe by day, but like really yummy, delicious food and

140
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: fine dining by night and really like good prices too,

141
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: so really achievable and fun. So Dad was wrapped because

142
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: he lived really close to there, but had never been there,

143
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 1: so that was our first night. Second day, I had

144
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: my hair. I really had been wanting to cut my

145
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 1: hair off for a while now, since been in La.

146
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: I have a massive girl crush on Kerry Mulligan, who

147
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: plays like Daisy Buchanan in Gatsby, not that I want

148
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: so her hair in Gatsby is quite short, whereas this

149
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: is like she usually has this cool like bob kind

150
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: of thing. And I was like, I really want to

151
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: do it, but so many hairdressers have told me I

152
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: couldn't pull it off because my hair is so thick.

153
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: It's so thick anyway, Frank's amazing a guy that cuts

154
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: my hand, and he was like, no, we can definitely

155
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: do it. And then Max, who has done my hair

156
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: and makeup a few times, like on the book cover

157
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: and stuff, he was like, oh, you're gonna love it,

158
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: especially for summer, and he organized me this cool like

159
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: straightening waving wand thing. So I'm set to do my

160
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: own hair now. So I'm all set, so I yeh

161
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: chop them off, which I've been wanting to do for

162
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: like six months. Then that night we went up to

163
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: day Olsford and mumbled on this big crimbo for us,

164
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: which was so lovely and delicious. And she's famous for

165
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 1: doing Christmas pudding and she makes the best brandy cream,

166
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: so we're going to try and recreate that on Christmas Day.

167
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: But she made it for us like while we were there,

168
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: if that makes sense. Oh, I made a note that morning,

169
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,439
Speaker 1: Boss and I went to Terror Twilight before I went

170
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: to my hair because my hair takes hours. And so

171
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: that morning we were like, we better get some food

172
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: because I have no idea like how long we'll be

173
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: in there for. And I saved the menu for you.

174
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: So I got this incredible thing. So it's called eggs

175
00:10:51,840 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: corosso folded eggs, steamed sesame, rice, avocado, bockjoy pickled hinja,

176
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: fried tofu, tiaki sauce, crispy skin salmon. Oh, my goodness, amazing.

177
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: And their coffee is really good. I bought a bag

178
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: of beans to come back to Byron because, as you

179
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: may know, we're fully sold out of Lolla coffee and

180
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: I drink black French press when we're sold out of

181
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: Lolla coffee. So plus, and I've literally got like a

182
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: few saschets between us of like reject packs that we

183
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: don't sell and I'm like, oh God, we're gonna run out,

184
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: so I've bought myself some beans so I can keep

185
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: having delicious coffee at home when we fully run out.

186
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: A little update on that one, so yeah, Lolla Coffee

187
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: is sold out. We've got limited stock of the Pods

188
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: and Hinderland Hot Chocolate, so if you do want to

189
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: get any orders in before Crimbo and stuff, you're still fine,

190
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: but lean into the Hinderland Hot Chockey. That said, there's

191
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: still limited stock. Just having a little sweet as I

192
00:11:52,440 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: talk about it makes me want to drink some so yummy. Okay.

193
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 1: So then we drove to Dalesford and Mum had made

194
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: this really called Crimbo dinner. She put on her own

195
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: like everything done. The tree had the catrols going, had

196
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: the fairy lights going, and she'd made the main though

197
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: was so different, was like full vegetarian. It was like this,

198
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: it wasn't Christmas here at all. The main meal it

199
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: was cauliflower hallomy chick bee tray bake, which sounds really

200
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: weird but it kind of worked and it was really nice.

201
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: And then the desserts were like super Crimo mode and

202
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: we had like a mold Christmas cider as well that

203
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: was super yummy. So we spent the night there in

204
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: Dalsford on her farm Friday night, and then Saturday morning

205
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: we got up, Mum took us for like a really

206
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: cool hike all around Dalesford which was so fun. And

207
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: she's got farm animals like sheep and guinea fowl and

208
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: had heaps of silkie chickens but the fox got them anyway.

209
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: It's looking beautiful and it was so nice just to

210
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: like break up the Melbourne urbanness with a night at

211
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: the farm as well. And then Mum and I record

212
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: a podcast, so Mum will be on the podcast in

213
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: the new year. I think I'm going to kick the

214
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: new year off with her. She's a psychnist or she's

215
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: just retired as well. Both mum and dad have just retired.

216
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: So her career is awesome, like theater nurse, psychnursts, really

217
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: interesting stories, very very funny. Used to be a campus

218
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: nurse at swim Burner as well, so she was like

219
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: that was so much fun because it was all funded

220
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: by student union so it was like there were no rules,

221
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: which she said it was so fun when you want

222
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 1: to do health campaigns and then oh yeah, Mom like

223
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 1: gave us a big tour of Dales for like. We

224
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: went into town, went for a drive, did a really

225
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: nice like Dales for day, and then she put on

226
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: another lunch for us before we left, which is really yummy.

227
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: It was more like antipasto. Oh I'm knocking, I'm knocking,

228
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: I'm in bosses room and I just nearly knock stuff over.

229
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: I would have gotten a lot of trouble for that,

230
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: but I saved it. I saved it, and then we

231
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: kind of had to jet mid Avo so that we

232
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: could make it back for Matt's family put on a

233
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: dinner for us that night. And Matt's family is Italian,

234
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: so his mum is from Paulia and his dad is

235
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: from Colubria, and so especially around Christmas time, depending on

236
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: what region you're from, you'll make specific meals around Corimbo.

237
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: So that was really cool. So we had a dinner

238
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: with them that night, stayed with his family that night,

239
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: and then I took it up really really early because

240
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: I was meeting my awesome mate Sam Kennedy, who's also

241
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: been on this podcast. But we made friends in LA

242
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: and so it was the first time hanging out not

243
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: in LA and it was very weird because I was like,

244
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: this is so weird to be hanging with you and

245
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: having coffee in Melbourne when we were hanging so much

246
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: in la Anyway, very weird but awesome. And then I

247
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: had a podcast that morning with Shane Dahlia. Oh wow.

248
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: So he's incredible Aussie chef, just a legend. And his

249
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: apple come out early next year as well. So I've

250
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: got a few EPs in the can now that are

251
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: all set to come out next year. Then I I

252
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: took Dad for a coffee because we recorded that at

253
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: Dad's house, and then headed back to Matt's fam to

254
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: do a Christmas lunch with another part of his family.

255
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: Anyone that's like knows Italian families like it's big families.

256
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: It's lots of foodie celebrations. So we just were like

257
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: soaking it all up. And his mom did this delicious

258
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: gluten free lasagna and foot assert does the canalonna with

259
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: like lemon this like lemon cream in one and chocolate

260
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: cream in the other. But for me, she doesn't do

261
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: it in the kind of Lorni show. She just put

262
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: them in a little like ramak and the two different creams.

263
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: The lemon cream is neck level with fresh berries on top,

264
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: so good. And then Monday was literally so my dentist

265
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: is in Melbourne. The only time that could get me

266
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: in was seven thirty am. So I was up early

267
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: Monday straight to my teeth and then found out I'd

268
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: been like grinding my jaw and they were like, look,

269
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: we want to put a sleeping retainer in. I was like, honestly,

270
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: I think it was just when I was in La

271
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: and thought like, you're falling asleep in La. You're falling

272
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: asleep honestly listening to sirens and then either illegal fireworks

273
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: or gunshots literally like I'm not joking, And so I

274
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: just think I was like in a little bit of

275
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: a state of stress and getting used to that and

276
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: being alone as well. I was like probably a little

277
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: bit versus like here in Byron, you fall asleep like

278
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: listening to nature and frogs and birds or bats. So

279
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, It's very super super safe here,

280
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: and so I just said, look, I think my nervous

281
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: system was a little bit heightened six for the last

282
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: six months. I'm going to see if I can kind

283
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: of like calm it down with jaw exercises that my

284
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: dialect coach has given me anyway, I'm really over sharing

285
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: the teething. And then I had four back to back podcasts.

286
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 1: Really excited to share these with you, so they'll all

287
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 1: come out now in the new year, and I was

288
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: I get really nervous when I do like stacked podcasts

289
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 1: like that because I deep dive I guess, so usually

290
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 1: I spent twelve hours in prep per guess and I

291
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: was just like whoa, whoa, whoa to put four in

292
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: one day, like, So the trick was I just prepped

293
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: them all in Yron before I went. And then Tuesday

294
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: was all book signings. We signed at sixteen different bookstores

295
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: and did over twenty thousand steps I hand full blown

296
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: blisters on my feet. And then in the evening we

297
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: went to Olivia Molly Rodgers beautiful book launch I think

298
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: it's called Find Your Light and that book's just come

299
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: out too. It was just really nice to support her.

300
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: And that was at the beautiful Willow Urban Retreat in

301
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: Melbourne that has an epic cafe. So if every in Melbourne,

302
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 1: that's a really healthy spot to take a meeting or

303
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: go for you can do like yoga class and then

304
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: go down and have breki or lunch, and they've got

305
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 1: saunas and massages. They're so so good. I think they've

306
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: even got a Eubadic practitioners there, which is like traditional

307
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: Indian practitioners. Then and then that night we went to

308
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 1: our favorite Mexican place just around the corner from Dads.

309
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: It's called Lottatoria, and it's so good, like we buy

310
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: their little taco wrap things tortillas or tortillas and make

311
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: our own tacos with them, so so yummy, and that

312
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: was delicious. And then they did a flan at the end.

313
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: That was so good, boss, And I love me. I

Speaker 1: love Japanese for like clean, clean living and clean life.

315
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: And then if I'm gonna like have a blowout, I'll

00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: always go Mexic when I say blow it, like yellow

Speaker 1: I love quawk, I love yeah, everything in Mexicana. And

319
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 1: then Wednesday, so we were meant to fly back Wednesday,

320
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: but the flight got canceled. Well it got kind of

321
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: like left around. I'll explain basically what happened was so

322
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: I was just having a little coffee sip. I was

323
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: meant to record podcast with Pea Miranda amazing if you

324
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: grew up in my ear looking for Ali. Brandy also

325
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: one survivor, so that was like and she so funny.

326
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: She's like, do you want to smart my survivor clothes?

327
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm not going to say no

328
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: to that, and so she has this whole book, big

329
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: bag of survivor clothes and has the bandana and so cool. Anyway,

330
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: an actual legend, like really cool, really grounded, really smart,

331
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: really really cool. Anyway, I was meant to do her

332
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: podcast and then jump straight on a plane home. That

333
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 1: flight they like canceled and then made us reroute through

334
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: Sydney and it would have been like a six hour

335
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: journey home, and it was like no, no, no, no, no no.

336
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: So then we just moved our flight to fly out

337
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: the next morning, which was cool because we got to

338
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: spend another day in Malves effectively. So after PR we

339
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 1: went back to Terror Twilight. I ordered the same thing

340
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: I think boss the day I had all the crazy pods,

341
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: like back to back pods, Boss picked me up a

342
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 1: like you can make your own macro bowls that are

343
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: so delicious, and Boss picked me up one of them

344
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: to kind of like have in between the podcasts, and

345
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: then we had to get like, I got my brows done.

346
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: Then we had to return the Honda, and then it

347
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: was kind of like Melbourne turned to this megastorm and

348
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 1: there was hail storm and all that, and then we

349
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 1: just kind of like made a meal and stayed home

350
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: that night and watched Adele because Adele was on Telly

351
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: that night, and then flew out. And then I've made

352
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: you a Byron Bay list of what I've done since

353
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: I got back. So I landed, had a podcast guestbook

354
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 1: to straight away, keep that a secret because that'll come

355
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 1: out next year. So had a podcast guest so picked

356
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: them up, bought them here and then we recorded the

357
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: pot and then dropped them straight at the airport. So

358
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: it was all very quick, quick, quick, quick, and that

359
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: was the day we landed, so we kind of hit

360
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 1: the ground running a little bit. Why can't I find

361
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: my Byron notes for someone that makes so many notes?

362
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: Here we go got them. A few food experiences we've

363
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: had in Byron since being back. Obviously, we've gone to

364
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 1: Woods and had the incredible gluten free being and banana bread.

365
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: We also tried a really yummy sardine's meal on gluten

366
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: free bread with a poast egg. So good. Their sardines

367
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 1: are so good and so healthy. Oh. In Byron. Recently

368
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: over the weekend, the power and we lost all power,

369
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 1: like there's a massive storm here and we were at

370
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: our Sam and Andy's and they're the Woods Boys, and

371
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: they made us dinner and like we went. We'd all

372
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: been at the beach that day, so it was like hot,

373
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: some baking, swimming in the ocean, and then we went

374
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: back to theirs for a barbie and like at five thirty,

375
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: like basically just went mental storms and stuff went flying

376
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: and stuff was breaking, and we were like, shifts, we

377
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: better go check Woods out, and so we all ran,

378
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: got in the car, went towards Everything was fine, but

379
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: no power. So we went and got all candles from

380
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 1: there and we had a candle at dinner, which was lovely.

381
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, no power all over Bangalore, which is where

382
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: we live. But I think it affected Byron, Balana Suffolk,

383
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: like the whole region. And then our power and internet

384
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: didn't come back for about thirty six hours, so it

385
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: was pretty solid. And then we were kind of like

386
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: we were going to do the movies and stuff on Monday,

387
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: we're like, no, no, no, we've lost a day of work.

388
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: So we just kind of like bunkered down. But the

389
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: one area that kept its power was Brunswick Heads, which

390
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: isn't far from here, and so there's a really cool

391
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: cafe there called Old Maids, and they're really known for

392
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: their burgers. But it was breakfast and I was like,

393
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: oh and Boss got an egg and bacon burger. I

394
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: actually got this delicious fish burger on a gluten free

395
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: bun and it was so so good and it had

396
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 1: like kim chi and it just felt really like fresh

397
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: and the fish was just like a big piece of snapper.

398
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: It was so good. Definitely pop Old Maids on your list.

399
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: It's really really yummy. I've had an asau bowl there

400
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: before as well, and it was so good and all

401
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 1: like everything's locally sourced, really clean, really good. What's next

402
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 1: on my list? Oh, so I've been back teaching, So

403
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: I teach if you're ever environ over krimbo or anything.

404
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: I teach Jog's restored him on Tuesday night and then

405
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: Vinyasa on Wednesday night. Some obviously back teaching. Well, we're

406
00:23:54,840 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: here over Chrissy and oh yeah, we had a really

407
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: ummy coffee. So we did our market day, like every Friday,

408
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: we do markets and we punch and Daisy is a

409
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: really great cafe Mullum that's actually been shot for a

410
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 1: couple months, and we it opened up and I got

411
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: a takeaway coffee on their housemade hemp and cashme milk

412
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: and it was really good. I actually did radio that

413
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: day too, because I got the coffee and took it

414
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: with me to radio and I did radio at this

415
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: local station called PARADISEFM, and I drove to Balana. It

416
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: was really cool, like so many interviews are just done

417
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: on new telephones, it was so nice like going to

418
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 1: an actual studio and we talked to book stuff. We've

419
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: had a few animal sightings since I last spoke to you.

420
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: Baby Bluey. The other night was at our mate's house

421
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: and I got to hold it so black baby blue

422
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: tongue lizard. The Koalas are just out in force at

423
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: the moment. So if you go to the end of

424
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: our street we call it Kohala Lane, they're everywhere. When

425
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 1: I say they're ever, you can spot one every day

426
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: now and sometimes two, and they're a bit more active

427
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: than usual. There was another animal I feel like, oh,

428
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: we got magpies in the backyard. Apparently magpies can recognize

429
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: forty human faces, and so I reckon they a light

430
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: getting to know us now, which is really cool. Back

431
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: in Byron. Therefore, back to therapy as well. So I

432
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: had therapy yesterday, and I've actually booked in a couple

433
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: of days before Christmas too, because Christmas for me can

434
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 1: be a really triggering time with food and feeling out

435
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 1: of control with food, and in the past I've like

436
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: just binged, eaten or in the lead up to Christmas,

437
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 1: and I just don't want to do that, Like I

438
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: want to feel vital and healthy and have good energy

439
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: and obviously enjoy Christmas like this, no tomorrow, don't worry,

440
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 1: and like I know that, like you know, Chrissy Eve

441
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: Crimbo Day, Boxing Day is just going to be like

442
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,479
Speaker 1: delicious food and leftovers and whatnot. But I just in

443
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: the past, I've kind of like been off the rails

444
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: for all of December because I've felt out of control

445
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: with food, and I just don't want that anymore. So,

446
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: like Melbourne was an amazing foody adventure, but and I

447
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,679
Speaker 1: tried these really good fruit mince pies in Melbourne, the

448
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: brand's called Celtic something or rather so yum. I bought

449
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: a four pack for Dad and just polished him off

450
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: on my own one. Like I literally was just working

451
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: and prepping pods and I had one. Few hours later

452
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 1: I had another, and like Boss wasn't there. He'd gone

453
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: out to this place he loves in Melbourne called Neptune

454
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 1: with his friend and then I Dad had gone out

455
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: to another birthday in it, so it was just me

456
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: and I literally was just like had leftovers from Matt's

457
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: fam and I was just like go and mental on

458
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: the minces anyway, delicious. It's called the Celtic Bakery. I think.

459
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: I think it's only in Melbourne that you can get

460
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,480

Speaker 1: of this summer being in Byron, I have a little

480
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: bit of time on my hands and my goal is

481
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: to read a book every two weeks, which means we

482
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 1: can bring book Club back. Guys, do you remember we

483
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: do book Club on Fridays. I'm making a note because

484
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: I just finished a book two days ago, so I

485
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: will let me just put book club book Club coming,

486
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: So I'm taking notes back so I'm professional doing while

487
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: I'm here. So that means on Fridays when I do

488
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 1: diary apps, I'll bring book Club back. Yeah, I've just

489
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: finished a book and I'm already a third of the

490
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 1: way through another one. It's a really easy read, so

491
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: I can definitely road test them for you. And I

492
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: really want to buy a couple autobiographies today, so yeah,

493
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: I will do some book research for you. And my

494
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: dream is my goal is book every two weeks. I

495
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: think every week is advantageous and I'd love to say

496
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: I can do that. But we're also in the middle

497
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: of watching Succession, which is an incredible show, and of

498
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: course I said boss. After that, we got to switch

499
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: to Crimbo. We got to switch to some Crimbo movies.

500
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: And my favorite Crimbo thing to watch is the Christmas

501
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: episode of Shit's Creek, So makee Bus watch that with

502
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: me a couple of times every Christmas. So we're doing that,

503
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: and we put our tree up. We tried every way

504
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: to find a Christmas tree with no real luck. They

505
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: were all very, very big, and we wanted one in

506
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: a pot so we could keep it and pop it

507
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: in the backyard after. But they were big, real big,

508
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: and then they were tying like mini tiny and like

509
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: cypresses as opposed to like pines, which is like traditional

510
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: Christmas tree, I'm pretty sure. So we just sought stuff.

511
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: So we put all of our plants in one Crimbo

512
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: corner that I made the same with the Halloween corner,

513
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: and then we've just kind of put Boss is really

514
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: into Harry Potter, and so we've put like Harry Potter

515
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: ornaments all over. We've got like a Harry Potter stocking

516
00:29:54,160 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 1: for bosses preses, which I'm starting to plan now, and

517
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: we have got like we've got a headwig like a

518
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 1: little owl ornament. We've got dose which is like Boss

519
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: can tell you all the Harry Potter reasons. We've got

520
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: the Golden stitch snitch golden snitch anyway for Harry Potter nerds,

521
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: I apologize. And we've got even Harry Potter theme details,

522
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: which you can get at Woolies, by the way, they

523
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: do Christmas Harry Potter theme stuff every year. So yeah,

524
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: we've got a bit of a Harry Potter vibe crimbo

525
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: vibe going on here. It is feeling a little bit

526
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: naked at the moment, so I think I'm going to

527
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: add a tiny bit more today and just to like

528
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: pepper it right up and make it feel real crimbowie.
