You need 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.000 to decide whether or not we carry on a conversation. 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.480 Shouldn't pick it up? Or we put it down? And 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:03.360 we stopped talking about it this week?

I love a buffet. 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.079 I'm quite sad that there's not more sizzlers in the 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:15.880 world these days. 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.239 So yes, I will say pick it up. But I 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:19.760 don't know what happened. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.400 Well, she was arrested at an Applebee's or you can 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:24.160 eat restaurant for disorderly conduct. Apparently there was an all 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:27.320 you can eat deal advertised and it did not specify 0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:30.280 per person, so she paid one fee and then brought 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:32.480 the whole family, kids and all in to eat for free. 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.720 No, it was promoted in the wrong way. Not fair. 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:37.920 You can't try to get through a loophole. You can't say, oh, 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:38.839 it's all you can eat. 0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:41.280 So I'm going to bring an entire truck and fill 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.000 it up, so I've got takeaway for the next month. 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:44.120 Do you know what I used to do? I'm not 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:45.840 proud of it, but I will admit to it. 0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.360 When I was a very young and poor backpacker, I 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.480 was backpacking around the world and I didn't have a 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:53.520 lot of money, and I was living in a van 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.560 with no windows. It was a removlessvan, not like a 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:57.800 cute van. I had a wooden floor and no I know. 0:03:58.360 --> 0:03:59.200 Yeah, I could picture. 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.960 It was freezing wastingland in Europe, and it was cold 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.960 having your showers at like the local gym, no beach. 0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:07.360 The beach so we used to go to We used 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:09.920 to go to our pizza hut with a container and 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:11.600 would eat as much as we could, and then we 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.520 would feel the container under the table, put a lid 0:04:14.560 --> 0:04:16.480 on it, and that would be either the dinner or 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:17.400 the next day's lunch. 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:19.479 Yeah. But that's the thing everyone has, that one person 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.720 who always tries to like scurry if you away. 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:22.559 That's my mum. 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:22.839 Me. 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:27.360 Yeah, all right, you two are sorry, really really all right? 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:29.480 Moving on?

I'm saying, put it down. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.719 There's one that everyone's talking about. The NFL had. You know, 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.080 they did a kiss cam where they zoom in on 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:44.560 couples that kiss on the be A man proposed to 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:48.119 his girlfriend and his partner immediately started shaking his head. 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:49.680 I was like, no, I don't want to get married. 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.440 Do you think that if you got proposed to in 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.440 public you would feel and a lot of people watching 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:55.160 you would feel a pressure to say yes and then 0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:55.839 say no later? 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:57.119 I asked, one hundred percent. 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:01.000 You always always say yes to save grace, like to 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:03.320 save face for that person I make you say no later. 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.520 I have an opinion that if you're getting married and 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:07.960 engaged in public, it's hiding the fact that your relationship 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:08.800 isn't actually that good. 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:10.200 It's a hot take, But I think if. 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:12.120 You are that sound and happy and confident in your 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.760 own love, you don't need a grand gesture to say, look, 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:15.159 how good. 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:16.440 It's purely for other people. 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:18.960 If Ben proposed to me my fiance, now, if he 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.479 proposed to me at the end of a football match, 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.240 I would have equally have loved that, because he knows 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.200 what I've said. Yes, I couldn't care less if it 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:31.640 was mortified, if it was private like us, one on 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.479 one like he did it, or in a football match. 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:35.360 It doesn't matter to me because at the end of 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:37.480 the day, this is the same end result, right, except 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:38.920 one makes you probably a bit more fair. 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:40.480 If you did it that pizza hut you're talking about, 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:41.560 would you still have loved that? 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:42.599 Negative? 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:43.960 Yeah, that's the difference, all right. 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:46.760 Finally, pick up, put down, remaining alert and awake the 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.120 whole flight. If you are sitting on the aisle seat 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:53.279 of an aeroplane. 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:53.200 Put it down. 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:55.520 I heard about this apparently, if you are on the 0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.320 aisle seat, there's an expectation that you will stay awake, 0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:01.359 And I can't even stay awake in a short drive. 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:04.279 If I'm a passenger I'm like, oh, my baby driving, 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.520 I'm like a baby. Anytime there's motion, I am asleep. 0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:09.839 So I just think it is the most unreasonable request 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:11.760 that if someone's in an aisle seat you should expect 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:12.400 them to stay awake. 0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:13.320 Why is it, do you think? 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.440 Is it in case of emergency or so the people 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.320 in the middle and the window can go to the bathroom. 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:19.640 It's so it's not an emergency. Absolutely not. 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.279 Because the emergency, the person closest to the window needs 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:23.880 to be awake so they can rip the door open. 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:26.560 It's just so that people can get out to the toilet. 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.640 But I I stand up. Oh people's asleep on their 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:31.760 on the aisle. I will stand up over them. But 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:33.960 then the question is do you go Do you step 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.680 over their seat fanny first or butt first in their 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:38.839 face because you've got to get out into the aisle, right, 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:40.000 So do you face them in the. 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:42.360 Grab claw over or do you turn backwards and crab 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.240 claw or you try and climb over the top of 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.520 them whilst they're still sleeping. I've climbed over heaps of people. 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:50.000 I'm very athletic. Wouldn't you just wake them up? Nah? 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.080 I would rather. I think you're asks in their face. 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.400 I can go to the yep, I can go to 0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:56.800 the bathroom without that person knowing I do not disturb 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:57.520 their slumber. 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.680 No, imagine waking up pretty longly, asses in your face, what. 0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:02.039 A day full? 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:06.360 Mister bean Fenny forward, arms back, I would gothom. 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.520 I will go but yeah, but facing them, yeah, I always. 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:12.040 But first, have you guys seen this new trend of 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:17.600 chat GPT absolutely roasting people's Instagram? Yes, it's so good 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:21.640 and we may or may not have been roasted ourselves, all. 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:22.640 Right, snaxt so the pickup. 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:28.000 Hey, Mitch Laurie, you might have seen this chat GPT 0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.920 roasting going viral online.

It just based off the pictures, 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:51.480 so it's not based off like your bio or your 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.080 name or anything. You just have a look at whatever 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:55.840 pictures are on the screen and then. 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:57.119 They they just roast. 0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:00.200 How have we gotten to the place in society where 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.920 we need to be paid out by artificial intelligence, Like 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:04.080 how we gotten there? 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:05.920 I know, But isn't it sad that we don't ask 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.480 our friends for advice? We go, hey, computer, tell me 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:09.280 what you think about me? 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.640 Mitch, tell me what you actually think about me.

But it's just a bit of amusement. People 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:25.040 just don't see what they say. So I organized for 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:29.520 chat GPT to roast all of us, basically, so I 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.760 don't know what I didn't want to know the answer. 0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:33.800 I got to producer Grace to do it.

It's 0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:33.640 like a bizarre mix of look how glamorous my life 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.400 is and I'm just a down to earth girl with 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:40.440 a dog and a smoothie.

Lord from Red Carpet poses that 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:32.400 scream look at me, I dressed myself to the obligatory 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:36.480 hot girl walk flex. It's a buffet of tryhard content. 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:39.760 Half the posts are just recycled radio bits, and the 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:43.800 other half are shameless plugs disguised as attempts to stay relevant. 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:46.640 Bravo for the effort, though, Oh well done. 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:50.719 Faster, she got a compliment to finish it, Mitch, recycled 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:53.400 radio in a midlife crisis. 0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:54.240 I'm twenty eight. 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:58.160 That's not midlife. At least you didn't attack your age gape. 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:01.000 Oh my god, guys, this is brutal. We're all gonna 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:03.319 go and have therapy after this. Now I'm gonna go 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:04.720 post to smoothie in my dog. 0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:08.679 All right back after this, I would pick up. 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:11.880 Now, guys, I know this is something that you don't 0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:14.560 care about, but it's all that I have thought about 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:18.199 since I've been at home this last week. It's book Week, Laura. 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:20.240 I loved bookwek growing up, Britz, so did you. He's 0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:21.079 talking about this often. 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:23.559 I was a book Week queen. Yeah, that was. 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.240 Captain Underpants you two till seven? 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:28.360 Oh, I was gumnut baby and a Hawaiian dancer. 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:30.800 We need to get into that part because Britz BRIT's 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.720 costumes were actually very questionable and probably not that age 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:34.720 appropriate at the time. 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:36.920 But book Week, and the reason why I have. 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:39.320 An issue with it is because it goes for a 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.720 week and you are expected to come up with a 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:45.199 new outfit for your child every day. The more kids 0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:47.280 you have, the more outfits you've got to come up with. 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.480 And I'm talking like it's craft activities. It's afternoons of 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:53.120 going to kmart or spotlight or buddings, which I know 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:56.160 is kind of part and parcel of the parenting thing. 0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:58.559 But by mid week, like as in, by the time 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:01.840 you get to Wednesday, I'm exhausted and I am done. 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:03.959 And my child doesn't know whether she's a dinosaur or 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:06.360 a cat. She's got no idea, So why do we 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:07.080 have to try so hard? 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.720 On sky News? My kid doesn't know her own gender. 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:11.600 She wakes up and thinks she's a pretty cat. 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:15.720 Come on, it's a book week, everyone. 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:17.840 I have an opinion. 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:18.480 Much. 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:19.720 I have an opinion. 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.200 I think the fact that you have to have ten 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:25.680 costume changes in a week is ludicrous, and I think 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.640 that they should think you yes, they should be teaching 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:33.679 consistency and commitment at these preschools. You go as you 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:36.520 pick your outfit and you commit for the week. It's 0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:38.280 five days that you are that dinosaur. 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:39.080 You don't change. 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.440 This is this is exactly my point. So this morning Monday, 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:43.960 we forgot. So we kind of got off to a 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:45.680 bit of a slow start. The kid's got to daycare. 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:47.680 Everyone was dressed up and I looked around and I 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:50.280 was like, oh my god, it's book week and I 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:52.079 had the costumes at home, So. 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.000 What did you suggest just pretend you for puberty blues, 0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:56.160 like from your school kids, Like you're just normal kids, 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:57.040 just in normal clothes. 0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:59.320 I think it's resilience building, you know, being that one 0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:01.280 kid that goes to school not on mufty day but 0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:03.280 in your school uniform was resilient. 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:06.640 Get that kid sits in the library every day, has 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:07.160 no friends. 0:14:07.440 --> 0:14:09.000 Her kids are fine. My kids are fine. 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:11.520 They are resilient. They actually didn't mind, but when it 0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:14.400 came to Tuesday, they were stoked to get dressed. So 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:17.720 Lola went as a dinosaur. But she's very strong willed. 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.000 Lola three years old, and she was convinced that she 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:21.720 was a rhino. 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.760 Similar not identical ancestors. But last year she dressed as 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:26.280 a penguin. 0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:28.720 She took a book to school that was Vernon the Penguin, 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:30.720 and she was convinced that she was a cat. 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:33.880 Do you have to take the matching book to your outfits? 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:36.040 Yeah, so not only do you buy ten outfits, you 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:37.480 have to buy ten books. 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:39.400 Well, they pick the book that they want to go as, 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.240 and then you have to try and fashion an outfit 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:41.920 to match the book. 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:45.080 Yeah, that's that's why it's unreasonable. There's one moving kids. 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:46.840 I can't deal with bookweek. Britt. 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:48.880 Can you please, now that we've got to this destination, 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.560 please describe what your gumnut baby outfit was. 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.920 Actually made from my mom'said his school. 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:57.040 I loved the gum nut babies, which is if you 0:14:57.080 --> 0:15:00.000 don't know what they are, it's you're like a gumnat 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.320 out of a tree.

She stapled it down the side. 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:23.400 So I was like sewn into that outfit. It was 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:25.560 like I was preparing for the logis.

Then she went to the 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.600 garden and just got loads of leaves and she stapled 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.000 my body with leaves.
