Speaker 1: Pickup with Laura, come on in, Hello Lady Hallo.
Speaker 2: But afternoon Monday.
Speaker 3: Hay Monday. How is everyone's a weekend? Did we go
Speaker 3: see Barbie?
Speaker 2: No, I didn't get to the cinema. I think we were.
Speaker 4: Britta and I are the only people in Australia who
Speaker 4: didn't go to the World My God.
Speaker 3: Well I went and saw Barbie and it's how I imagine
Speaker 3: the Titanic mania was like in the nineties.
Speaker 5: I really want to see it. It is high on
Speaker 5: the list, but I'd rather just like let it die
Speaker 5: down for a week or two and then go, Okay.
Speaker 1: Well, here's my hot hot take review.
Speaker 3: If you're thinking of taking the kids, like you know
Speaker 3: they do mums and bub sessions throughout the week, go
Speaker 3: but be prepared to talk to your child about life
Speaker 3: and death because it gets so existential.
Speaker 4: I don't think Barbie's a movie like even though obviously
Speaker 4: Barbie is for I don't think the movies aimed at kids.
Speaker 2: From what I read, what did you think I liked?
Speaker 1: I'm giving it a six out of ten.
Speaker 5: The hype that's been going around the world for the
Speaker 5: last six months about this movie, I would have thought
Speaker 5: you'd given it an eight or nine. It's like the
Speaker 5: scores Laura Gone Dance, Tom Star.
Speaker 4: It's not good as six, maybe just above average, but
Speaker 4: he's particularly bad.
Speaker 3: I didn't love it. I cried twice, and yeah, it's
Speaker 3: six out of ten. I stand by it. Once you
Speaker 3: watch it, you'll get it. It'll make sense.
Speaker 5: Okay, So did you go and see Oppenheimer as well?
Speaker 5: Because I feel like you can't see one without the other.
Speaker 1: No, I didn't.
Speaker 3: That doesn't interest me at all. I'm more of a
Speaker 3: Barbie bon in the atomic Hiroshima isn't exactly.
Speaker 2: I mean that really shouldn't surprise anyone, should it?
Speaker 4: Would?
Speaker 2: You know who we have joining us today on the show, Barbi.
Speaker 4: No, it's not Barbie, but it is the King of
Speaker 4: Dancing with the Stars, Elvis is.
Speaker 2: No, we had Phil Burton joining us. He was the winner,
Speaker 2: and you know.
Speaker 4: What, it was so awesome to watch it all play
Speaker 4: out last night. He's gonna be joining us telling us
Speaker 4: how he feels. We love feeling that we do. He's
Speaker 4: a friend of the show man.
Speaker 3: At the moment.
Speaker 1: Such a sweet and he'll bring it.
Speaker 2: Do they get a crown extraordinary?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: But he got a mirror ball.

Speaker 4: he surely did. We have him here King of Dancing
Speaker 4: with the Stars.
Speaker 2: It's philbery Fell.
Speaker 4: Well done.
Speaker 6: Thank you guys, thank you, thank you for having me
Speaker 6: on the show again and thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Show us your ball. He's got the mirror ball. Wow,
Speaker 1: it's big.
Speaker 2: It's bigger than your head.
Speaker 1: Pretty close, it's getting there.
Speaker 3: You were here at the start of the season and
Speaker 3: I had a feeling you did well.
Speaker 1: But to win it I mean, was there a little
Speaker 1: bit of you that was shocked?
Speaker 6: Oh, completely shocked. I did know that it was going
Speaker 6: to be either myself or Emily that was going to
Speaker 6: win it, but we didn't know which one of us
Speaker 6: was going to win, and had absolutely no idea. So
Speaker 6: I'd convinced myself all day before watching the finale that
Speaker 6: Emily was going to be the winner. But one of
Speaker 6: the great things was that a bunch of us were
Speaker 6: actually together watching the show last night, so a bunch
Speaker 6: of the cast were there watching, So Emily and I
Speaker 6: were literally arms around each other watching the result together,
Speaker 6: and no matter which name they ran, no matter which
Speaker 6: name they read out, it was always just going to
Speaker 6: be a really amazing moment.
Speaker 5: So do you think your your diva antiques are going
Speaker 5: to increase now? Like human nature is one thing, but
Speaker 5: now you've got the mirror ball, You're going to ask
Speaker 5: for a whole lot more in the dressing rooms, Like
Speaker 5: you've already taken a toilet break in this chat.
Speaker 6: Yeah, completely, I'm solo dressing room from now on. I
Speaker 6: get my own room, I get my own rider.
Speaker 2: And only agreed Eminem, I don't talk.
Speaker 6: To anyone else any more. I just I take the
Speaker 6: stage off by myself.
Speaker 3: I wish you could see film now. He's on zoom
Speaker 3: and he will not look the webcam in the eye.
Speaker 3: He doesn't want to look at us.
Speaker 2: It's discussed and he prouettes in and out of every meeting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's still in a sequence one piece suit. It's bizarre.
Speaker 4: Phil you and Ashley, you were truly magical to watch.
Speaker 4: It was such a it was so so beautiful and
Speaker 4: something else. When we had our rap party and our
Speaker 4: rap drinks, you said that doing Dancing with the Stars
Speaker 4: felt life changing to you, and and you're really sentimental
Speaker 4: about what an important experience it was for you. Why
Speaker 4: has this been such an important thing for you?
Speaker 6: I think mainly you know, amongst performers and a lot
Speaker 6: of artists and creative people, they have this thing called
Speaker 6: imposter syndrome, where basically you have this feeling that you're
Speaker 6: a bit of a fraud and you're not good enough
Speaker 6: to do your job, and that at some point someone
Speaker 6: is going to tell you that. I think one thing
Speaker 6: with doing Dancing with the Stars is that eliminated that
Speaker 6: feeling a lot for me, and it gave me so
Speaker 6: much more confidence in myself and I think that is
Speaker 6: the life changing thing that I was talking about is
Speaker 6: knowing that anything that I go into in the future,
Speaker 6: I'm gonna have this level of confidence knowing, look, I've
Speaker 6: done something that I never thought i'd be able to do,
Speaker 6: and I've done it well. I can take that feeling
Speaker 6: into the next thing and just go into it with confidence.
Speaker 6: And I think now that you've done it and you
Speaker 6: did it successfully.
Speaker 2: Well, some of us more successful, but you can look.
Speaker 6: Back with pride at what you did and know that
Speaker 6: in the future, if you have to take on some
Speaker 6: other challenge, you're going to be able to give it
Speaker 6: a red hot go and you can do it with confidence.
Speaker 5: Well, it must be good to know, like you probably
Speaker 5: always wanted if you can hip thrust on your own,
Speaker 5: and now you know you can.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can.
Speaker 6: I can hip thrust like no one.
Speaker 2: And that it's a great hip thrust.
Speaker 3: My dream of the day, Philbert, when you and your
Speaker 3: mirror ball you go, you shimmy off to the sunset.
Speaker 1: We love you, buddy, We love you Phil.
Speaker 6: Thank you guys. I love you guys too.
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry, happily, can we all say for the
Speaker 3: very last time, we love you Phil it's Stambay. Next
Speaker 3: on the pickup are your chance at a full row
Speaker 3: of tickets to see Taylor Swift live The Era's World too.
Speaker 1: It's in minutes.
Speaker 3: It's the Pickup Monday Afternoon with Britt, Laura and Mitch.
Speaker 3: Rush into chemist Warehouse today for half price off the
Speaker 3: Bioglan Vitamins range. It excludes bulk items Chemists ware House
Speaker 3: Great savings every day.
Speaker 5: I wanted to talk to you guys about something that
Speaker 5: is absolutely divide in the Internet right now. It's what's
Speaker 5: happening in Malaysia with the band nineteen seventy five. You
Speaker 5: know Matt Heely, he was dating Taylor Swift recently. So
Speaker 5: there's the Good Vibes Music Festival that's happening over there,
Speaker 5: I should say was happening over there. Matt Healy from
Speaker 5: nineteen seventy five got on stage and had this realization
Speaker 5: when he got there that homosexuality is actually illegal in Malaysia,
Speaker 5: so he didn't know that when he booked this gig.
Speaker 5: He gets on stage and he makes this really big
Speaker 5: political statement. He starts to make out with his bass
Speaker 5: player Ross McDonald. This is a big political statement to say,
Speaker 5: I know homosexuality here is illegal and this is a
Speaker 5: bit of a like stuff you moment. I want you
Speaker 5: to hear what he said right before the kiss me
Speaker 5: when we were booking shows, I wasn't looking into it.
Speaker 1: And then I do not see the point inviting to
Speaker 1: a country and then telling us who we can have
Speaker 1: sex with.
Speaker 5: And I'm sorry if that offends you and you're religious.
Speaker 5: So then he makes this statement. Then they start making
Speaker 5: out on stage, and this isn't like a little peck
Speaker 5: on the cheek, a peck on the lips. This is
Speaker 5: a twenty second makeout like you're in the movie session
Speaker 5: make out. And then after the makeout he says this,
Speaker 5: all right, we gotta go.
Speaker 1: We just got bang from Quala. Okay. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think that's iconic behavior, that's fantastic.
Speaker 5: So they make the statement make out. Then they've literally
Speaker 5: I'm assuming they run off stage, get on a private
Speaker 5: get and get out of there because it is punishable.
Speaker 5: And I don't think Malaysia would care that this is
Speaker 5: a famous band or a famous artist. I think they
Speaker 5: probably would have taken this into the hands. They can
Speaker 5: probably never go back to Malaysia again. The music festival
Speaker 5: was then completely canceled, the rest of the festival was done,
Speaker 5: and it is dividing the internet for two reasons. One
Speaker 5: half of people are saying, good on you for making
Speaker 5: a stand, because this is crazy that this is still
Speaker 5: illegal in these countries. And the other half is saying, well,
Speaker 5: should you have done that? What good has come from that?
Speaker 5: What's going to happen to the rest of the people
Speaker 5: in Malaysia. What's going to happen to homoseexuals in Malaysia
Speaker 5: right now? Are they going to be punished for this?
Speaker 5: What do you think, Mitch, being in the queer community,
Speaker 5: when you look at this from the safety of Australia,
Speaker 5: what do you think, Well, on.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gay and I can only kiss someone
Speaker 3: for thirty five seconds on the pub on the main
Speaker 3: street here in Australia, and that they'd celebrate me.
Speaker 1: They've pop confetti, cannons.
Speaker 2: No one's going to put you in prison.
Speaker 3: No one's going to in prison me. I think the
Speaker 3: important thing here is to actually note the facts of
Speaker 3: how just how bad the anti LGBTQAA plus laws are
Speaker 3: in Malaysia. It's illegal, homosexuality is illegal in Malaysia, and
Speaker 3: they actually have laws that they practice that criminalize it.
Speaker 3: They branded as sodomy and it's punishable by imprisonment, and
Speaker 3: they practice it, which is very different to having those
Speaker 3: laws and turning a blind and exactly they punish it.
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty three, Malaysia was ranked the second worst
Speaker 5: country in the world for transgender rhymes.
Speaker 1: It's awful.
Speaker 3: So my point there is that, yes, this is right,
Speaker 3: This is a good thing to do, because all it
Speaker 3: is is putting a microscope on a really big issue
Speaker 3: in this country.
Speaker 1: We're talking about it, it's bringing attention to it.
Speaker 3: My worry is this famous, really handsome, famous man gets
Speaker 3: to kiss a guy on stage, get on his private jet,
Speaker 3: have a Pepsi max and zooed off.
Speaker 2: That's my thought on this.
Speaker 4: I'm like, what then, Because there's obviously no long term
Speaker 4: implications to Matt Healey. He's never going to go back
Speaker 4: to Kuala Lumpur again. He makes a political statement, he's
Speaker 4: getting a lot of press off the back of it.
Speaker 4: Everyone's like, oh, you're a gay icon, you're a hero.
Speaker 2: But then what does it do for the actual people
Speaker 2: who live in Kuala Lumpur?
Speaker 4: And I think not only that, who are the people
Speaker 4: that then suffer. Is it the event organizers because the
Speaker 4: event's completely canceled? Is it all the people there who
Speaker 4: paid tickets? Like, does it actually make an impact on
Speaker 4: a government level or does it just impact the actual
Speaker 4: citizens and people more so?
Speaker 1: I think that's a fine sacrifice to pay.
Speaker 3: I think people not going to music festival is fine
Speaker 3: for the horrific standards of gay people in Malaysia to
Speaker 3: be spoken about.
Speaker 5: I agree, and I do think that while maybe nothing
Speaker 5: directly happens next week off the back of this, the
Speaker 5: fact that the world is talking about it is baby
Speaker 5: steps for them in the right direction. And I think, yeah,
Speaker 5: losing I would happily lose the price i'd paid for
Speaker 5: a ticket to go to a music festival if I
Speaker 5: knew it was going to help people in a quick community.
Speaker 3: Well, the anger that he's being put towards Matt Healey,
Speaker 3: it doesn't make sense to me that anger should go
Speaker 3: towards the Malaysian government.
Speaker 2: Totally.
Speaker 3: Don't be protesting Matt Heeley's British flat. Go to the
Speaker 3: front steps of the Malaysian government and go we demand change,
Speaker 3: because that's the real issue here. It's not a British
Speaker 3: guy kissing a bloke on stage grow up totally.
Speaker 2: I totally agree.
Speaker 4: I think the thing that's being missed though, is the
Speaker 4: fact that it is a country where sixty four percent
Speaker 4: of people are Islamic, so the majority of the population,
Speaker 4: their religious beliefs are going to be in contrary to
Speaker 4: what the rest of the world is thinking and feeling.
Speaker 5: But a lot of Islaming people are gay one percent.
Speaker 5: The reason that they're not out is because they go
Speaker 5: to prison.
Speaker 3: So also, can I just say, like time and time again,
Speaker 3: throughout history, social change has been brought on by moments
Speaker 3: like this. Social change doesn't happen in political boardrooms. It
Speaker 3: never has, never will. So you have to have these
Speaker 3: moments for actual change to happen. And today I'm announcing
Speaker 3: I'm running for Prime minister.
Speaker 1: Wow, sorry for president President? Where that come from? A
Speaker 1: president in Australia, in Malaysia?
Speaker 2: Qual We can't wait to see it?
Speaker 1: Okay? All right?
Speaker 3: Next on the show, we got a five hundred dollars
Speaker 3: chemist sware House gift card. It's a biggie up for
Speaker 3: grabs if you want that, we'll do it. Next on
Speaker 3: The Pickup Hates the pick Up Monday Afternoon, we've Laura
Speaker 3: and Mitchire. Thanks to Chemist Warehouse heading today, you'll get
Speaker 3: half priced off the Biogland Vitamins range. It excludes bulk sizes.
Speaker 3: Chemist swear House great savings every day.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: If there's ever a time in life where you want
Speaker 4: to feel like you can rely on your partner, like
Speaker 4: you can trust in them and they're going to be
Speaker 4: there for you and have your back, it's during childbirth.
Speaker 4: That is probably the one moment in life where you're like,
Speaker 4: do you know what? I really hope that they come
Speaker 4: through with the goods. And usually by the time you've
Speaker 4: gotten to that point in a relationship, you know whether
Speaker 4: they're going to be okay or not okay.
Speaker 2: You've done a few birth in classes, you know you
Speaker 2: would have.
Speaker 3: A baby in yourself hopefully if you didn't think this
Speaker 3: person haud guide you through it.
Speaker 2: It is relatively decent.
Speaker 4: Well, there was a woman on TikTok recently and she
Speaker 4: shared a list of all the very questionable things her
Speaker 4: husband did when she went into labor and then ultimately
Speaker 4: brought their baby child.
Speaker 2: Into the world.
Speaker 4: Not only is it a list, she's also like itemized
Speaker 4: it by time because there was just so many of them,
Speaker 4: right let's kick it off.
Speaker 2: Have a listen to this six pm.
Speaker 7: I want to brook at two pm. Six pm things
Speaker 7: are happening, and he asked me what was for dinner, Like,
Speaker 7: I'm a little busy, dilating.
Speaker 1: I can't fire up the hide on some men to
Speaker 1: think that she'll still have a roast chick in the oven.
Speaker 4: Also uber eats, like you can take care of yourself, Pal,
Speaker 4: I'm trying to do my like my deep breathing right now.
Speaker 2: I don't cook when I'm not giving birth, So fat
Speaker 2: chance when I'm baby coming out.
Speaker 1: For men bashing, But odd bash that man with my words,
Speaker 1: because that is how stupid you can prove your wife
Speaker 1: isn't your mother. Sorry, that's that's stupid.
Speaker 2: Oh it gets worse. Michturi five am.
Speaker 7: So he's been like taking pictures the whole time and
Speaker 7: sending them to my family and like keeping them update
Speaker 7: what's going on. But later I look at these photos,
Speaker 7: I'm titso like just boo boobies, booby setting for my
Speaker 7: boobies to my dad.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like sending updates throughout the course of the duration
Speaker 4: of the birth to the family group, chat of everything.
Speaker 1: She's done, but not the.
Speaker 4: Titties, but like she yeah, he's just sending them without
Speaker 4: thinking that maybe maybe she wants some privacy, maybe there's
Speaker 4: a reason why her entire family aren't in the room
Speaker 4: with her during labor.
Speaker 7: And finally eight am, Yes, that was only the hospital
Speaker 7: for eight hours.
Speaker 2: I was crazy.
Speaker 7: So it was time to go and they were kind
Speaker 7: of like, can you need something before you leave? And
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, I have a protein bar in
Speaker 7: my in my bag, so grabbed the protein bo and
Speaker 7: he's like, can we split that. I'm hungry?
Speaker 1: Is that top?
Speaker 2: It is that post birth? Would you? Yeah? Post birth?
Speaker 5: So she's gone in given hang on what she's gone
Speaker 5: and given birth and then left in eight hours?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean some people do that.
Speaker 1: She's a woman.
Speaker 2: I left.
Speaker 5: I left four hours after How to put the dinner on?
Speaker 2: Yeah, she had to go onto a load of washing,
Speaker 2: wash the floorboards. Okay.
Speaker 4: My thing is, after you have gone through labor and
Speaker 4: you've given birth, you are so hungry. You are so thirsty,
Speaker 4: You're so insatiably hungry. And he was prioritizing himself give
Speaker 4: the woman her damn protein.
Speaker 1: Well, but he didn't get.
Speaker 5: To eat dinner because she didn't cook it in time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's hungry.
Speaker 3: You've had kids, You've got two gorgeous kids with your husband,
Speaker 3: Matty Jay, how is he like during childbirth? Because he
Speaker 3: is such a sweet, considerate, empathetic man. I feel like
Speaker 3: he'd be the perfect partner.
Speaker 4: The reason why I found this list so funny was
Speaker 4: because so I went into I went to labor with
Speaker 4: Marley and we were induced, and Matt was hell bent
Speaker 4: on creating a TikTok about all the things you shouldn't
Speaker 4: say when your partner's in labor. But the thing was
Speaker 4: I was actually in labor, and he was making a
Speaker 4: TikTok about the things you shouldn't like, the irony in
Speaker 4: that whole thing. Anyway, this went on for eight hours,
Speaker 4: because I was in labor for eight hours, and then
Speaker 4: the doctor comes in and goes, you're ten centimeters dilated.
Speaker 4: I'm just going to go and get the nurses and
Speaker 4: everything because it's almost time to start pushing.
Speaker 2: Doctor leave's.
Speaker 4: Matt goes, Oh, I don't know how long it's going
Speaker 4: to take, but I'm really hungry, so I'm just going
Speaker 4: to go down to the cafe and get chicken sandwich.
Speaker 4: Leave what leaves where it goes downstairs. He go time
Speaker 4: and he got a chicken sandwich. But he made it
Speaker 4: back just in time, and he was very good the
Speaker 4: actual pushing.
Speaker 5: Let him go down.
Speaker 4: I think I was delirious by that point in time.
Speaker 4: I don't think I newly knew what was going on. Also,
Speaker 4: his mum was there with us in the room. No what,
Speaker 4: and she's amazing, so she was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was doing all that.
Speaker 3: Were you asked if it was okay if your mother
Speaker 3: in law was there while you were bald eagle.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, I know that sounds very random, but no,
Speaker 4: it was wonderful having Ellie there because it also meant
Speaker 4: that whilst Matt got very hungry and needed many many
Speaker 4: food stops, there was someone there to fill in for him.
Speaker 2: Put it that way. He tagged him out with his mum.
Speaker 2: And then his mum was right.
Speaker 4: There and she she was down there at the business end,
Speaker 4: and he was up top at the party end.
Speaker 2: So he didn't want to see what was going on
Speaker 2: jumping on me.
Speaker 5: When I give birth, They're not leaving my side.
Speaker 2: They are there.
Speaker 5: They'll be feeding me, they'll be watering me, they do
Speaker 5: whatever it is.
Speaker 4: And then the doctor came over and they said Matt
Speaker 4: do the honors. Cut the umbilical cord, and he goes, nah,
Speaker 4: I'm right, And I was like, I'm sorry, no, cut
Speaker 4: your child's ubilical cord.
Speaker 2: He goes, oh, no, I can't.
Speaker 1: I can't do it.
Speaker 2: It'll make me vomit. And I was like, this will
Speaker 2: make you vomit.
Speaker 1: Why just push it out?
Speaker 2: The least you can do is cut the umbillical cord.
Speaker 3: I'm done from the waist down. Oh funny, all right,
Speaker 3: we got five hundred bucks at Chemists Warehouse to go
Speaker 3: and spend up a storm at Chemists Warehouse. And if
Speaker 3: you've got a similar story, what did your hubby do
Speaker 3: during labor?
Speaker 2: What did your partner do? It's not always hubbies, just
Speaker 2: your partner'd be terrible.
Speaker 1: I'm gay. I don't know what I'm going on about.
Speaker 2: Like I'm not man bashing here, but you're like, it's
Speaker 2: only the men.
Speaker 3: Aren't either woke one I don't know. Head to the
