11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if it's going to work today here

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 2: with Kylie wife co host Mum to our six kids.

13
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: So we bought a new car a little, oh maybe

14
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: about a year and a half ago, two years ago,

15
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 2: because we've got a big family. It was a brand

16
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: new key a Carnival. First time we've ever bought a

17
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 2: new car in ever ever and not sponsored by the

18
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: way hashtag not sponsored. But gosh, we love that car.

19
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 2: What a fantastic car. If you've got a big family.

20
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 3: You know what I love about it the most?

21
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: In need event, go for it? What do you love

22
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: about it the most?

23
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: It's got all of these senses, so it tells you

24
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: when there's things that are.

25
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 3: In the way you seeing, you can't.

26
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: You can't, like, you can't have an accident in a

27
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: car like that.

28
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: Do you do?

29
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: You know what story I'm going to tell?

30
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 3: What story? Are you going to tell about the accident

31
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 3: that you had? What accident I've had an accident?

32
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, So we had the car for just a couple

33
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 2: of months at most, and so our garage is always

34
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: pretty full of stuff, and therefore when we turn the

35
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: car on, all the sensors go bbbby bip all the time.

36
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: So Kylie gets into the car and the sensors start

37
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: going as you would probably expect. She pops into a

38
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: reverse and begins reversing. The door was open, but there

39
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: was a car parked, a car parked behind the Keya.

40
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: Our Let's face it, it was a small car.

41
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 2: Our teenage daughter drives a sedan, a full sized family sedan.

42
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 3: Now you're making it sound really bad. It's much smaller

43
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: than the Kia.

44
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: Anything's much smaller than the Keya unless it's a semi trailer.

45
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: Kylie reverses the car didn't bother because all the senses

46
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: are going off and they always do.

47
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: Didn't bother?

48
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: To actually check the three hundred and sixty degree camera

49
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: that is displayed on the.

50
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: The care has the best camera ever on Like I

51
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: am incriminating myself here, The care has the best camera

52
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: I've ever seen.

53
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: On this eight inch color display that shows you everything

54
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: that's happening around the car.

55
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: Well, it only works if you look at the camera.

56
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 3: I wasn't looking at the camera.

57
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: Every obstacle that's there reversed tobol first right into the sedan.

58
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: So luckily, luckily your sedan slumper bar it's plastic, and

59
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: it bounce back.

60
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 2: It sustained all of the damage and it still hasn't

61
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 2: been fixed nearly two years later. But I remember you

62
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: came to my office and I was on a call.

63
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: I couldn't be disturbed, but I knew that things weren't good.

64
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: And then you grabbed a piece of paper and wrote, I.

65
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: Crashed the car. Just crashed the car.

66
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 2: And then ran off crying. So I obviously got off

67
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 2: the call as quickly as I could walk into the garage,

68
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 2: saw it and was like, oh gosh. And then I

69
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 2: remembered the lesson that I want to emphasize now. And

70
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 2: we've talked about it on the podcast. Before, but I

71
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: remembered the lesson and it was an important one. People matter, things, don't.

72
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad that I taught you that lesson.

73
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: Well, you gave me an opportunity to practice the lesson.

74
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: And I remember specifically what I said to you. Do

75
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 2: you remember what I said? No? I said two things.

76
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: First of all, I said, I love you. I said, Kylie,

77
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: you're feeling really awful right now, aren't you? And you nodded,

78
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: and I was like, and I love you. And then

79
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: I continued, and I think I was a little bit cheeky.

80
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: I said something along the lines of, isn't it horrible

81
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: when we ignore those warning beeps and forget to look

82
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 2: at the big color screen that show says what's behind us?

83
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: And then you started crying again.

84
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 3: Well, I think there's another lesson that comes out of

85
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 3: that as well.

86
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: We did hug and you took it.

87
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 3: Humor helps. Humor does well, it does.

88
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: So what's the challenge for our families today to help

89
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 2: their families to be happier to crash the car?

90
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: That's definitely a good tip.

91
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: Challenge accepted. Do you have another one?

92
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 3: I do.

93
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: When things go wrong today and inevitably, at some point,

94
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: something will, something will be in our path and it

95
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: will challenge us. Find the opportunity to remember that people matter,

96
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,119
Speaker 1: things don't.

97
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 2: And then give your kids a great big hug and

98
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 2: say I love you more than I love that really

99
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 2: expensive thing that you're smashed, and we can work that out.

100
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: Let's just make sure you're okay first. We really hope

101
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: you enjoyed this tip. Short, sweet, simple, and a bit
