1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: If you're listening to the Jonesy and Demanda podcast. I'm

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: going to read this story just as I read it,

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: because I think there's a lot in here to be

4
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: charmed by. Brisbane resident Rachel Blaw thought her pet dog

5
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 1: was lying on top of her chest in bed. I

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: need to reach out and discover something sleek and slithering.

7
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: When she put her arm on top of the bed sheet,

8
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: this next sentence Brendan, You're going to love this is

9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: a quote. Babe, don't move. There's a two and a

10
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: half meter carpet python on top of you. Her husband

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: told her how many husbands have tried to tell their

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:39,639
Speaker 1: wives that, yeah, she skink. Her husband told her that

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: after she'd asked him to switch on the bedroom light,

14
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: she first her first thought was to get her two

15
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,919
Speaker 1: dogs as far away from the situation as possible in

16
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,840
Speaker 1: case they tried to attack the python. She said, I thought,

17
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: if my dalmatian realizes there's a snake there, it's going

18
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: to be carnage. Two and a half meter python, I'll

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,959
Speaker 1: read on. After her husband and took her pets out

20
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: of the room, she then faced the even more delicate

21
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 1: task of safely removing herself from the bed without alarming

22
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: the snake. She said, I was trying to shimmy out

23
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 1: from under the covers, in my mind going is this

24
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: really happening? This is bizarre. So she's got how long's

25
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: two and a half meters? Brendan's mad. Oh that's like

26
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: you've got quite it's your wingspan and the big fat python,

27
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: she said. Once freed, she began to tease the python

28
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: through the window shutters. Oh, your fat so, which is

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 1: how she believes it slithered into the house in the

30
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: first place. This is another quote from her. It makes

31
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: me feel queezy. What was this woman doing a press conference?

32
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: It was that big that, even though it had been

33
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: curled up on top of me my bums clenching, part

34
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: of its tail was still out the shutter. I grabbed it,

35
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: and even though he didn't seem overly freaked out, he

36
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: kind of just wobbled in my hand. The snake eventually

37
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: left the bedroom unharmed and moved into the couple's back yard. Wow.

38
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: I would have moved to a thirty six floor penthouse

39
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: in Concrete Town. I cannot this just casually happens. So

40
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: here's the quote, Babe, don't move yep, there's a two

41
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: and a half meter car'tpet python on top of you?

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: And so she thought it was a dog lying on

43
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: top of us. How do people live? Well? Are you

44
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: gotta be careful? This is Australia man, So riggy Ricky Ricky, Ricky,

00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,440

Speaker 1: it was a snake. Yeah, hit it with a rake.

50
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: Now it's only four foot four right, it's quite substantially

51
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: dicky when you think coming through the shutters.
