Speaker 1: Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 2: This is the Flex and Frooms catch up podcast.
Speaker 3: Flex and Frome on Kita. Contrary to popular belief, the
Speaker 3: Flex and Frooms show was not the first time through
Speaker 3: me and I have joined forces Scizzard.
Speaker 2: As she's motioning, right, I mean that, what did you mean?
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty, For those of you who don't know,
Speaker 3: I own a conversation card game company. It's called Reflex,
Speaker 3: and I reached out to miss Frumini and I said,
Speaker 3: we're going to make some expansion packs.
Speaker 2: Do you want to make your own card game?
Speaker 1: Can I just say the honor and the privilege to
Speaker 1: be held in the same esteem as Bobo, Yeah, your
Speaker 1: previous podcast hosts, Yeah and joy Ride. Joy Ride one
Speaker 1: of my favorite Sydney cre icon icon. Don't use that
Speaker 1: term loosely or lightly. No, you really don't we mean that,
Speaker 1: but for me did say yes. And so she made
Speaker 1: a conversation card game. And bring it up though is
Speaker 1: Somebody messaged me a couple weeks ago and said, how
Speaker 1: did you not know I Frumy was a Simpsons person?
Speaker 1: She fully has a Simpsons question in the deck. I said, look,
Speaker 1: having one Simpson's oriented question, does not make one a
Speaker 1: Simpson's person Let's get that straight in the same way.
Speaker 1: I won't even go there, but I thought, let's play
Speaker 1: said game. Let's answer the Simpson question on air. And
Speaker 1: by let I mean you just answer it.
Speaker 2: You had asked, what.
Speaker 3: Was the question?
Speaker 1: If you're a Simpsons character, who would you be? Yes,
Speaker 1: answer it, please, Lisa Simpson.
Speaker 3: Is that by vibe or that's an accurate observation anyone
Speaker 3: would make.
Speaker 1: Definitely vibe, it's an internal vibe. I love that Maggie
Speaker 1: is part of the family, and yet she's on in
Speaker 1: her own little world. She's got quite a cheeky streak
Speaker 1: and from I know, snatched snatched mullet, and she just
Speaker 1: whenever she grows up, she's like the president or she's
Speaker 1: some really cool job. They grow up in the yeah,
Speaker 1: like they have like flash forwards, got it, but they
Speaker 1: never get older than eight.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: I did do some research and based on my personality type,
Speaker 3: i'd apparently be Bart, which I don't know.
Speaker 1: Oh, you have major Bart vibes about you, which means.
Speaker 2: You are a Bart.
Speaker 1: Oh don't you know what that means?
Speaker 2: But is that tongue backed.
Speaker 1: Bart has short, spiky hair.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what he looks like.
Speaker 1: He's yellow, he is pissy, he's culturally ambiguous. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: what they are from Springfield. But is mischievous, naughty, always
Speaker 1: into tention, has a sweet streak, continually pissing off Homer.
Speaker 1: So quite a contrary. And I'd say, do you.
Speaker 3: Know I only became cheeky with age, though, like I
Speaker 3: became more of like a mischievous person with age. You
Speaker 3: are sweeter as a child, for sure, shy, I think so, Yeah,
Speaker 3: not like shy, reserved, really reserved, keep to myself, don't
Speaker 3: want to like draw too much attention. I mean that
Speaker 3: stopped at sixteen, but changed.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I just thought I think it was like a self
Speaker 3: important thing. I'm like, I think that what I'm thinking
Speaker 3: is far more valuable than what I'm hearing, so I
Speaker 3: should contribute.
Speaker 2: I've heard what you've had to say. I'm sat quiet.
Speaker 2: Time to get it back.
Speaker 1: I reckon I was the opposite that Alas. Flex has
Speaker 1: in her hands a conversation card deck that we collaborated
Speaker 1: on in twenty twenty. You can actually still buy it, yeah,
Speaker 1: on the Flex website Flex Factory. We're going to answer
Speaker 1: some of the questions.
Speaker 2: Not the crumbs.
Speaker 1: Is there crumbs in there?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Look it's like glistening, It's like chicken schnitzel of juice.
Speaker 2: I'm sick. I'm sick. I'm sick. I'm sick.
Speaker 3: Well, let's answer the question. Do you just dicuss your
Speaker 3: sexual partner's genitals with your friends?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not?
Speaker 3: No, I don't either, would not do not so wild.
Speaker 3: Remember that time in the interne where I spoke about
Speaker 3: sex really freely because I'm like, why.
Speaker 2: You bitch just don't talk about this? No, it wasn't.
Speaker 2: It was I think like somewhere around bobon Flex.
Speaker 1: I remember facilitating your own nuts?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I was like, some of you guys just need
Speaker 3: to come respectfully on your own as well.
Speaker 2: Do you know what it was?
Speaker 3: Because it was at time on the Internet where the
Speaker 3: conversations around dating were centered around the orgasm gap, and
Speaker 3: it's like, why do heterosexual women participate in hookup culture if.
Speaker 2: You're not even getting a nut? What is that about?
Speaker 3: And then I was like, the conversation to me is
Speaker 3: really frustrating because your personal experience is so centered around
Speaker 3: what your partner will I won't do for you, and
Speaker 3: so what agency do you have to like facilitate a
Speaker 3: joint experience, because if there's one thing about rooting a
Speaker 3: straight man, he's gonna get his.
Speaker 2: Nut precisely, precisely.
Speaker 3: But yeah, But then I was talking to a friend
Speaker 3: the other day as well, and she was like, oh,
Speaker 3: I was having this conversation with this guy.
Speaker 2: And I was like, how did you go from like.
Speaker 3: A casual conversation to like sexual tension and like rooting.
Speaker 3: You don't even know this guy. And she's like, oh,
Speaker 3: he asked me about my hidden folder. I was like,
Speaker 3: what's a hidden folder? Now? If you're real sheltered, I
Speaker 3: was like, what's a hidden folder? So when I foun
Speaker 3: out what a fins to us.
Speaker 2: I was like, what is this? Anyway?
Speaker 3: She's like a hidden folder, like where you put all
Speaker 3: like your nudes and other people's nudes. I'm like, other
Speaker 3: people's what are.
Speaker 2: You talking about other people's nuds?
Speaker 3: She's like, you just keep it in there, and then
Speaker 3: like only you know it's there, you can access it.
Speaker 2: Uh huh. Anyway, our conservative energies, where were you in Barrah?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, okay, ready for your next question, mister
Speaker 3: A meaning yes, yes, your honor. Do you think it's
Speaker 3: okay to steal from big supermarkets.
Speaker 2: This.
Speaker 1: I really wrote this in twenty twenty, didn't I? Yeah,
Speaker 1: kleptomania is a mental illness.
Speaker 2: We'll stop it there. Thank you.
Speaker 3: Thank you said all you need to say. Are we
Speaker 3: all complicit in Crystal Lily's success? I love this question
Speaker 3: I heard of its time. Honestly, Oh my god, because
Speaker 3: the thing about not even cancel culture broadly, but when
Speaker 3: people point to divert attention away, I'm like, it's a
Speaker 3: tactic as old as time itself.
Speaker 2: When people are pointing too much of the bad thing.
Speaker 2: I'm looking at you.
Speaker 3: Extra because on most days, and I'm not an indifferent person,
Speaker 3: I feel strongly about a few things, But on most
Speaker 3: days I'm looking away from things. I see something I
Speaker 3: don't like, I'm likes it is what it is. Said
Speaker 3: something run me the wrong way?
Speaker 2: It is what it is.
Speaker 3: People who are constantly you're hiding or you're trying to
Speaker 3: divert attentions. Now I'm looking extra close.
Speaker 2: Do you think that often?
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think it's like it's a what do you call it?
Speaker 3: It's not a scare tactic. I think it's a defense mechanism.
Speaker 3: I think that people are just acutely aware of how
Speaker 3: critical they are and how how much they don't want
Speaker 3: to be exposed to the criticism of that degree.
Speaker 1: Yes, he says, it's like when you like, when you
Speaker 1: judge yourself, like when you don't like the way you look,
Speaker 1: for example, that's when you look at other people in
Speaker 1: that way you project the lens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so totally agree.
Speaker 3: And you know, someone like Chris lily Or when we
Speaker 3: were having that conversation about like, you know, the backbone
Speaker 3: of his career is by parodying people of color and minorities,
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, but were you not laughing along like
Speaker 3: you were consuming that content? So not only did you
Speaker 3: platform it like you've invested in it. We're using the
Speaker 3: words now, But that's do you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3: It's like you, how do you not recognize that? And
Speaker 3: then how at this very moment are you able to
Speaker 3: detach from how you felt about it, what you thought
Speaker 3: was humorous about it, and make it about this one
Speaker 3: guy who, for all intents and purposes, we would not
Speaker 3: know his name unless you all watched his show and.
Speaker 2: Gave him fame. Would you know what I'm sad? Serious?
Speaker 3: He would not we would not know what the name
Speaker 3: Chris Lily meant. How we not have engaged in some capacity.
Speaker 1: Have you heard of the philosophical theory called I think
Speaker 1: it's like presentism. I could be so wrong, but it's
Speaker 1: when you look at things from the past from the
Speaker 1: current lens.
Speaker 3: Ah, this is why I hate a bit. She's like
Speaker 3: Twilight's not even good. Shut up, you weren't there.
Speaker 2: You weren't there. I understand ten years ago she was fresh, unique,
Speaker 2: never been seen.
Speaker 3: We're discussing age relations like listening skin the CGI was
Speaker 3: ahead of its time, like this guy was redefining the
Speaker 3: alpha male archetype.
Speaker 2: So no more, they weren't doing it like that on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's very I agree, there's definitely. Ah,
Speaker 1: it's so hard because I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: there hard is in the right place when I think
Speaker 1: like society changes and a lot of people get understanding
Speaker 1: of what is right and wrong, particularly in Australia. Like
Speaker 1: I don't think we're taught what we see on TV
Speaker 1: as funny and not funny then changes what we think
Speaker 1: is acceptable.
Speaker 3: Of course, that's with anything though, but I feel like
Speaker 3: the vibe goes okay, It's one thing to make an assessment,
Speaker 3: a moral core, a judgment call, preference call, but it
Speaker 3: gets punitive really quickly. It gets like this person needs
Speaker 3: punishment too quickly for my liking, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: Like the punishment often doesn't fit the crime.
Speaker 2: With social commentary, this thing was.
Speaker 4: On the ABC literally, but like you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: for the masses, it was just a different like we
Speaker 4: just didn't I don't.
Speaker 3: Know, but it's the reconciling that people don't do. Like
Speaker 3: two things can be true. You can say like now
Speaker 3: like damn, like I don't know what we were thinking then, and.
Speaker 2: It's not right.
Speaker 3: Great, but it all dubbed it into like this one
Speaker 3: guy and he managed to brainwash all of us and said.
Speaker 2: Be serious, you know what.
Speaker 1: Revisionist theory.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 3: The last question, which is probably why I don't do
Speaker 3: a lot of online discourse.
Speaker 1: These don't put it on me.
Speaker 3: No, No, it's because the conversation doesn't move quickly enough
Speaker 3: to a resolution. What's your opinion on filming people in
Speaker 3: public without their consent? We're still talking about it now
Speaker 3: and it's still not clear. Probably even it's gotten worse.
Speaker 1: I would say now if I see someone film anyone.
Speaker 1: It is a massive, massive red flag, massive red flag.
Speaker 1: I cannot explain how much of a red flag it is.
Speaker 1: I think it's not because I'm paranoid about people filming me.
Speaker 1: I have been filmed. We've all been filmed. I know
Speaker 1: how exposing it is. It's never it's never nice. I
Speaker 1: can't think of a single person that I've seen exposed
Speaker 1: on someone else's Instagram that I thought, yeah, they would
Speaker 1: love that. This complete like this whole community of strange
Speaker 1: that they don't know. I'm making an assessment on something
Speaker 1: they did that is usually unacceptable in that community, or
Speaker 1: we or annoying, or you're drunk, or you have a
Speaker 1: mental illness. Like it's always something that's out of the ordinary,
Speaker 1: never in a good way. So and again it's like
Speaker 1: I think it's something that we've learnt why it's wrong. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in a way, like since having the Internet, Like I
Speaker 1: think like Brown Cardigan, for example, all that kind of
Speaker 1: stuff that was very normal. I love that kind of
Speaker 1: shit up until maybe like three years ago that I
Speaker 1: did I actually start thinking, oh, like I wonder how
Speaker 1: that made people feel. Now that we hear these stories
Speaker 1: that people who for example, have gone viral. Then we think,
Speaker 1: oh shit, people actually like can actually affect someone. They
Speaker 1: don't just think of them like that is them. It's
Speaker 1: not this moment in time that they're removed from. It's
Speaker 1: actually them. What do you think?
Speaker 3: Can't get into it right now, But thank you for
Speaker 3: sharing you With'slex Frooms Love you.
