Speaker 1: Laura, come on, we're back.
Speaker 2: We are back. Baby had a little.
Speaker 3: Mini vacate, didn't we did? I want to be in Fiji.
Speaker 3: It was so beautiful. But the honeymoon that wasn't a honeymoon.
Speaker 2: I went on my honeymoon everyround six months after the wedding,
Speaker 2: mind you, but took my kids and took my sister
Speaker 2: and her kids. Four children in the one house. Is
Speaker 2: a little bit less honey happened on that moon than
Speaker 2: what I would have liked.
Speaker 3: All right, did everybody watch the wonderful Laura Burne on
Speaker 3: Dancing with Stars last night?
Speaker 4: Stars Dancing. She was so good we cut a word
Speaker 4: out of the title she danced with stars? I did.
Speaker 2: I danced with stars in my eyes and look I
Speaker 2: did the fox trot. And I'm going to say this,
Speaker 2: I'm going to sound like a soul loser, but I
Speaker 2: think I was robbed. Gave me a six and he
Speaker 2: can kiss my eyes.
Speaker 3: You have said, right since we're starting, you like robbed, robbed, robbed,
Speaker 3: And I was like, oh, I'll just go with it.
Speaker 4: She's not robbed. That wasn't a good performance last night.
Speaker 3: I agree with you. You were robs. That was it was beautiful.
Speaker 3: It was a motive. I could feel what was going
Speaker 3: on between you. I got the storyline a six that
Speaker 3: was not a s.
Speaker 5: I agree, and you're acting Laura. I felt like I
Speaker 5: was watching a year ten drama performance.
Speaker 1: It was so performance.
Speaker 2: It was such a performance that he's lost for if
Speaker 2: you missed it, it was it was like a breakup.
Speaker 2: I had to pretend like I was very in love
Speaker 2: with my dance partner, Danil Matt had said to me,
Speaker 2: my husband, he was like, if I don't feel jealous
Speaker 2: from watching that performance, then you haven't done a good
Speaker 2: enough job. And I asked him how he felt halfway
Speaker 2: through and his response was not jealous, it was aroused.
Speaker 2: There's something else we need to talk about.
Speaker 1: I unpack that for sure.
Speaker 2: I think I just need to unpack that with my therapist.
Speaker 1: That's a thing.
Speaker 2: Do you know what else has just come out in
Speaker 2: the world of reality TV?
Speaker 1: The Bachelor?
Speaker 2: We have just had it announced that there are three
Speaker 2: new Bachelors happening this season filming in Melbourne.
Speaker 4: How do we feel about the lineup?
Speaker 5: We will, Yeah, We'll get to that because I've got
Speaker 5: hard feelings and Britain has a connection with some of them.
Speaker 4: In a way. I do have a bit of a kition.
Speaker 5: All will be revealed next. Let's start the show. Oh
Speaker 5: by the way, of course, Taylor Swift's Air as Well
Speaker 5: tour is coming to Australia. You guys know, we have
Speaker 5: all the free Taylor Swift tickets here.
Speaker 2: We have all the tickets here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's coming up soon.
Speaker 5: We got a whole entire row for you and all
Speaker 5: your friends on the way here at the pickup. It's
Speaker 5: the pickup Monday afternoon with Britt, Laura and Mitch Hi.
Speaker 5: Everyone rushing to Chemists ware House to get half priced
Speaker 5: off the Nature's Own Vitamin range.
Speaker 1: It excludes bulk sizes. You get Chemists ware House, you
Speaker 1: get great savings. It's every day.
Speaker 2: Did you hear the news that did not stop the nation?
Speaker 2: Maybe it paused the nation for all of about a
Speaker 2: second before. Yeah, they saw it and they went and
Speaker 2: then they carried on with their day. But it was
Speaker 2: some news. The new bachelor's and I say bachelors because
Speaker 2: once again there's three of them have just been announced
Speaker 2: over the weekend. Now I have a soft spot for
Speaker 2: the bachelor, as I mean, some of you might know
Speaker 2: I met my husband on the Bachelor. It used to
Speaker 2: be a formula for successful relationships. Fifty percent of the
Speaker 2: relationships that have come out of the Bachelor have been successful. British,
Speaker 2: I have.
Speaker 4: Less of a soft spot. Okay, I love it, but
Speaker 4: love that for you. You got happy ending.
Speaker 2: Great met my husband, got a couple of kids. Worked
Speaker 2: out well for me. This year, they're doing the whole
Speaker 2: three bachelor thing again, but I feel like it didn't
Speaker 2: go that well last year, so I don't understand why
Speaker 2: they have decided that they will push forward with the format.
Speaker 2: These are the most desirable men that we could find
Speaker 2: in the whole of the country. Luke Bateman, he's a
Speaker 2: former NRL player. He likes to write poems and he
Speaker 2: has known just why. He's a country boy, and he
Speaker 2: used to be a footy head and now he's a softie.
Speaker 3: I love that I'm looking at right now, definite like
Speaker 3: footy player.
Speaker 4: Physique, very stocky's stocky. He looks really nice.
Speaker 2: He's got a smile.
Speaker 1: He does have a nice smile, poetic smile. He's got
Speaker 1: a colieflowery or too. On further inspections.
Speaker 2: His last year he does player, so he hit around
Speaker 2: the head a few to me. That's why he's I reckon,
Speaker 2: he's like, if I was going to go off looks,
Speaker 2: i'd pick him. I think he looks. Okay. Sorry, Number
Speaker 2: two we've got here. His name is Wesley Cortez. He's
Speaker 2: a Brazilian student who's also an influencer. So not only
Speaker 2: could we not find, we've found someone who doesn't even
Speaker 2: have their permanent residency.
Speaker 1: I don't think hold on, hold on, he's doing this
Speaker 1: for a green card, not love.
Speaker 2: No, he needs to stay in Australia. So he's gone
Speaker 2: on a reality TV show.
Speaker 4: That'd be a red flag for me. I don't know
Speaker 4: if you actually want to be here, sort of like
Speaker 4: the Honey Badger.
Speaker 1: Totally yeah, look very same, very well.
Speaker 2: I mean, I've said he's an influencer, but I mean,
Speaker 2: and not to be like he's only got thirty thousand followers,
Speaker 2: but he's only got about thirty thousand followers.
Speaker 1: Who's the influencer?
Speaker 5: Says he has appeared in several short films. He's one
Speaker 5: of those that he's been cast because he's clearly an actor.
Speaker 1: I don't believe any of this.
Speaker 2: I think it's in short films, okay, right, and then
Speaker 2: the third guy that we have, which is once again
Speaker 2: Top of Australia, is a guy named Ben Woodell. Now.
Speaker 2: He is an ex model. He he works in film.
Speaker 2: I don't know, some sort of like maybe he works
Speaker 2: on the producing side of it now but also works
Speaker 2: on the acting side of it. There seems to be
Speaker 2: a common theme here.
Speaker 4: I reckon Ben's hot. Yeah, he's pretty good looking.
Speaker 2: Okay, wait wait wait, wait, Brittany Hockily because we've got
Speaker 2: something to unpack in a moment. The common theme is
Speaker 2: that there's a lot of actors happening in this year's casting. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but Pritt turns out that maybe you have a little
Speaker 2: bit of connection with our Ben Wodell.
Speaker 3: Okay, funny story. I wouldn't say connection. But when they
Speaker 3: announced this just was it just yesterday? Yeah, when they
Speaker 3: announced this, I was like, oh my god, that guy
Speaker 3: looks really familiar. And then I saw the name and
Speaker 3: I was like, hang on a minute. I went into
Speaker 3: my DMS and he and I had He had slid
Speaker 3: into my DMS back in It was in October and
Speaker 3: we were chatting from October to November, and I had
Speaker 3: met my current partner.
Speaker 4: Band in November. So I went back through our DMS.
Speaker 4: He slid in and he.
Speaker 3: Was like, I'm not going to go into it right,
Speaker 3: I'm not going to detail it because that's rude. But
Speaker 3: he did say, you know, my friend told me to
Speaker 3: follow you because I think she thought would be a
Speaker 3: good match, and boy was she right. And that was
Speaker 3: how it started. He's really funny. He was very charismatic
Speaker 3: in the DMS.
Speaker 4: I don't have a bad word to say about him.
Speaker 4: We just I just ghosted him for some reason. At
Speaker 4: the end, I don't say you never met up.
Speaker 2: He asked you out you never met up.
Speaker 3: Well, we've bantered back and forth for a while, and
Speaker 3: I seem to have a theme with this. Remember this
Speaker 3: happened with Jimmy from The Bachelor, which Jimmy and I
Speaker 3: have laughed about it now.
Speaker 4: Jimmy and I had.
Speaker 3: Also been talking before he became the Bachelor, and I
Speaker 3: also accidentally ghosted him.
Speaker 4: Ben seems great.
Speaker 3: Obviously there was nothing there because he was supposed to
Speaker 3: go on and be the Bachelor. But he was very charismatic,
Speaker 3: very witty. So I think he's going to go on
Speaker 3: this show and be a bit of a smooth operator.
Speaker 4: That was the vibe I got. But I never met
Speaker 4: the guy.
Speaker 1: No, but it wasn't for you. He just wasn't. He
Speaker 1: didn't didn't really.
Speaker 3: I obviously wasn't in the right place. But two weeks
Speaker 3: later I was because that's when I met Ben.
Speaker 1: But don't take it personally, Ben, but it's very personally.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 2: I did a little bit of diggy and it turns
Speaker 2: out maybe he will be very good at reality TV
Speaker 2: because he's had a bit of experience. He's actually been
Speaker 2: on another reality TV show before in the past, one
Speaker 2: that was in the UK and it was called Taking
Speaker 2: New York.
Speaker 5: See, that is the problem with this stuff. I can't
Speaker 5: stand it when they cast actors and people that just
Speaker 5: want game, they just want to beamers.
Speaker 4: I'm going to disagree with you. I do one hundred
Speaker 4: pcent disagree.
Speaker 3: I think it's okay to be somebody that's out going
Speaker 3: and love's entertainment and still want to find love. So
Speaker 3: I'm going to go against the grain with.
Speaker 4: You on that one.
Speaker 3: Just because they've done shit in the past doesn't mean
Speaker 3: it's they can't go and find love on a show
Speaker 3: as well.
Speaker 4: Doesn't mean that they.
Speaker 2: Can't go on to show fine love and get lots
Speaker 2: of Instagram followers.
Speaker 5: And the Blue Tick Yeah yeah, and get ghosted by
Speaker 5: Brittany Hockey. It's a ride a basket. Excuse me.
Speaker 3: Maddie j was a model before he became the Bachelor,
Speaker 3: so there are people.
Speaker 2: Don't. Don't drag my husband into this catwalk stories.
Speaker 5: We can't wait to see The Bachelor Australia. It's coming
Speaker 5: to Channel ten to ten play very soon.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 5: Next, we've got a full row of tickets for you
Speaker 5: and your friends to see Taylor Swift at the Era's
Speaker 5: World Tour. Like you and your friends, Oh, take them? Yeah,
Speaker 5: and we got them for you coming up in the minutes.
Speaker 5: Here at the pickup Monday on the pick up britt
Speaker 5: Laura and mit Chad in the chemisware house today a
Speaker 5: great savings every day, guys.
Speaker 1: I'm so excited, you know I I'm the take head
Speaker 1: of the show.
Speaker 5: I love proclaimed you social media or please whenever your
Speaker 5: phone's broken, she comes crying to me, help me.
Speaker 2: Knows nothing about technology. She doesn't even know how to
Speaker 2: open up Gmail.
Speaker 4: That's a lie. I've run our entire business for three years.
Speaker 1: Listen, listen.
Speaker 5: What you guys do, what you guys thrive on is
Speaker 5: social media and there's a new app in the game and.
Speaker 1: It's called Threads. You guys across Threads.
Speaker 2: Oh, look, I've heard of it. I have not downloaded it.
Speaker 2: I've not looked into it.
Speaker 4: I am entirely across it.
Speaker 5: Okay, So Threads is owned by Meta, which is the
Speaker 5: parent company that owns Facebook and Instagram.
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg, essentially.
Speaker 2: He owns everything.
Speaker 5: And it's a Twitter killer. That's what it's been branded
Speaker 5: as a Twitter killer. It's basically it's a ripoff of Twitter.
Speaker 5: All it is is a place for you to start conversations,
Speaker 5: post topical things political with you and your friends, memes, jokes.
Speaker 5: It is purely think of it like threads. Like you
Speaker 5: say something, someone comments and it creates a little thread
Speaker 5: of you don't want to love.
Speaker 2: I love that they've tried to frame it as something different.
Speaker 2: I did read that they were calling it microblogging, and
Speaker 2: it's literally Twitter. Elon Musk was apparently going to sue him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll sue the Zuckerberg is.
Speaker 4: It's called Twitter killer.
Speaker 5: Elon Musk, who owns Twitter, threatened to sue Mark Zuckerberg
Speaker 5: because this app has set new records. It's now sitting
Speaker 5: at one hundred million downloads since Thursday. It launched on Thursday.
Speaker 5: Here are some points of difference. Just because I know
Speaker 5: neither of you are jumping at the thought sign up.
Speaker 2: Also because I know nothing about it, I don't see
Speaker 2: the point in trying to get my thoughts across in
Speaker 2: like twenty words or.
Speaker 1: I message Laura. I'm like, have you heard about Threads?
Speaker 5: She's like, get a pair of sciss and cut it
Speaker 5: off at the base. I'm like, oh, that's an app.
Speaker 5: It's an app, Laura, It's very different.
Speaker 1: So okay.
Speaker 5: The difference is no DMS. It's only Threads. You can
Speaker 5: only post, there's no chat, there's no way to send
Speaker 5: photos on memes to friends, no DMS at all. You
Speaker 5: can set your account to public or private. It mirrors
Speaker 5: your Instagram, so when you create it, because it's owned
Speaker 5: by Meta, you can sing all of your Instagram followers,
Speaker 5: all of your friends, all the people that already follow
Speaker 5: you can automatically follow you. It's pretty incredible. Downside to
Speaker 5: that is if you download Threads and you want to
Speaker 5: delete it, the only way to delete it is to
Speaker 5: delete your Instagram profile.
Speaker 3: No, that's actually true, but there is a way around that.
Speaker 2: Stop posting on threads.
Speaker 1: Take it over here, Britt, you're breaking news.
Speaker 4: I told you.
Speaker 3: Because you think I'm not across it, I downloaded threads. Guys,
Speaker 3: I'm on threads. I've never tweeted in my life. I
Speaker 3: don't even know what a tweet is. But I have threaded,
Speaker 3: I have sown, I have done whatever the threading thing.
Speaker 5: I through the needle really well. Message me and she said, Mitch,
Speaker 5: is this something that I need to be a part of?
Speaker 5: And I said yeah, I think so. And then she
Speaker 5: said can I make money on it? And I said no,
Speaker 5: and she said then I'm not interested.
Speaker 3: Well no, hang on, you exaggerated that. I was curious,
Speaker 3: and I said, is this something you make money on? Like?
Speaker 4: Is this something people are going to post ads on?
Speaker 3: Purely because I wouldn't have done it because you said
Speaker 3: you can't make money and I'm on there.
Speaker 1: There's no ads you can't put out on You.
Speaker 3: Actually can't everyone. This is the crazy thing, right, one
Speaker 3: hundred million people signed up. No one read the terms
Speaker 3: and conditions. It came out once a hundred million people
Speaker 3: were on there that you can't ever deleted it without
Speaker 3: doing your Instagram. You're right, but what you can do
Speaker 3: is just turn off your thread up?
Speaker 2: Can I just say? Is so annoying because all it
Speaker 2: means is that they're going to claim that there's all
Speaker 2: these accounts on threads and so many of them are
Speaker 2: going to be dormant because it's going to be so
Speaker 2: many people who don't have active accounts, which is like
Speaker 2: spam accounts. It just sounds annoying. It sounds like another
Speaker 2: thing that's going to keep me on my phone and
Speaker 2: I don't want it.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're not sold.
Speaker 5: Britain has it, but she like fell on a keyboard
Speaker 5: and she just sent out like four essays it wasn't
Speaker 5: a real thread, and thousands.
Speaker 2: Of responses to those, and you are like, well into
Speaker 2: the thread.
Speaker 1: I've gone thread viral.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've gone thro Producer Tony here on the show.
Speaker 1: Do we have a threads for the pickup?
Speaker 3: Perhaps we don't, but we can get one if everyone
Speaker 3: if we're doing a little vote here, but we'll.
Speaker 2: Never be able to delete it forever.
Speaker 1: All right, I'm voting threads for the pickup, Britt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if I don't have to do anything on there,
Speaker 3: no producing Tony is like, sure, I'll just do another
Speaker 3: job off the show why.
Speaker 4: Alright, I went on there. I threaded three times.
Speaker 3: Everyone was threading and I was like, oh, panicking, So
Speaker 3: I threaded three times.
Speaker 4: Then I went off and I haven't been on there since.
Speaker 2: What was your first thread? Britt?
Speaker 3: My first thread here says literally never tweeted in my life.
Speaker 4: Pray for me. That was what I did.
Speaker 3: I'm not about it as somebody that's been on there.
Speaker 3: Maybe my mind will be changed, but I probably will
Speaker 3: never thread again because I just think there's what's the point, Like,
Speaker 3: I don't have the time to do it, and I
Speaker 3: don't really.
Speaker 1: Think I'm an early adopt.
Speaker 5: I got into only Fans early and I did very
Speaker 5: well on that app, and I'm going to do very
Speaker 5: well on threads.
Speaker 2: Please stop sending mich death threats.
Speaker 5: Please threads, threads, threads all right, pick up threads coming tomorrow.
Speaker 5: We'll have an update then back next. Britt had something
Speaker 5: stolen from her on a most recent trip to BALLEI.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got wildly robbed in Bali.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you about it after on their.
Speaker 1: Way pick up. It's Monday.
Speaker 5: On the pickup with Britt, Laura and Mitch. Thanks to
Speaker 5: Chemists Warehouse running now get half priced off the Nature's
Speaker 5: Own vitamin range. It excludes bulk sizes chemists where house
Speaker 5: got great savings every day.

Speaker 3: pro Barley.
Speaker 4: I love it.
Speaker 3: I've been a hundred times. I like to feel like
Speaker 3: I'm a bit of a pro at Balley. You do
Speaker 3: love a bit of a Barlei trip, don't you share clothes?
Speaker 3: And it's beautiful and it's amazing.
Speaker 5: When we all went together. You rode around on a
Speaker 5: scooter for four days with your helmet on backwards, and
Speaker 5: the locals were laughing at you.
Speaker 1: They all know who I am. I went No, they're
Speaker 1: laughing at you.
Speaker 4: Know if that happened once with you and you filmed it.
Speaker 3: No, I took Ben there. Ben hadn't been there. And
Speaker 3: if you guys been following on for a while, Ben
Speaker 3: is from Switzerland and he's scared of all these animals.
Speaker 3: It's every animal in the world he's got a problem with. Anyway,
Speaker 3: I've told him a lot about the monkeys there, and
Speaker 3: you've got to be careful with them there. Anyway, Barley
Speaker 3: was amazing, But I did get robbed there. Unfortunately, she
Speaker 3: was a very traumatic event. But what I want to
Speaker 3: say is we're going back to the monkeys traumatic.
Speaker 2: Let's move on about the monkeys.
Speaker 4: I don't want to sit on the traumatory.
Speaker 2: I've been traumatized, but monkeys, you'll understand it the endala.
Speaker 2: I've been traumatized by monkeys in bar as well. They're awful.
Speaker 1: Oh I got that monkey. There's a monkey like garden,
Speaker 1: isn't there forest.
Speaker 2: All of them and people go there and pay money.
Speaker 1: It's horrible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's not what I did, but I had
Speaker 3: been you know, I was a bit cocky and confident
Speaker 3: with Ben. I was like, Babe, like stick with me.
Speaker 4: I've got this.
Speaker 3: Like I know, Bali, I come here all the time.
Speaker 3: This is what we're doing, and took him to all
Speaker 3: the places. I was just like, you know, showing off
Speaker 3: a little bit. We're in this beautiful cliff top villa
Speaker 3: and you know, there are a lot of trees around,
Speaker 3: and there were a lot of monkeys around, and I
Speaker 3: had been.
Speaker 4: On his back.
Speaker 3: I was like, Ben, you cannot leave anything around. You
Speaker 3: cannot leave doors open. The monkeys will come in, they'll
Speaker 3: steal your stuff, they'll take stuff, they'll trash the place,
Speaker 3: like I was.
Speaker 4: Hounding him on this point.
Speaker 3: Then one day we're out the back by the pool
Speaker 3: and we were having some lunch and a drink and
Speaker 3: were swimming.
Speaker 4: This is our own little villa.
Speaker 3: And I had taken my hat off because I was
Speaker 3: going to go for a swim, but I was also eating.
Speaker 4: So I took my in visil.
Speaker 3: Line out because you guys know, I wear hi visil
Speaker 3: line like the cue they retain. I was a retain
Speaker 3: that's very sexy.
Speaker 1: So I took my.
Speaker 3: Bizzeline out, put it in my hat, left it on
Speaker 3: the chair.
Speaker 4: We dove in the water.
Speaker 3: We're having this great time, and then it was like
Speaker 3: slow motion. I looked up to the roof and I
Speaker 3: saw that there was this monkey.
Speaker 4: He looked at me. I looked at him. Ben looked
Speaker 4: at him. Ben looked at me.
Speaker 3: He jumped off, ran across, and it was slow motion.
Speaker 3: I was like, no, got my hat, took the inmbizzel
Speaker 3: line out with one hand.
Speaker 1: Monkey my hat straight in.
Speaker 4: Popped that straight in and you should see his teeth
Speaker 4: right now. I was like no. I was like slow
Speaker 4: motion and I it was like a toddler.
Speaker 3: The toddler looks at you, and you know when a
Speaker 3: toddler takes something and you're like, don't drop it, drop
Speaker 3: it now, stop stopping.
Speaker 1: Looked at me.
Speaker 4: Put the inmizeline in his mouth.
Speaker 3: That didn't happen. Put the hat on also didn't happen.
Speaker 3: But he jumped off and ran away with my bizl
Speaker 3: Oh my god. Now if you don't know him, bizzeline,
Speaker 3: this is me ruined.
Speaker 4: It's made specifically for my teeth.
Speaker 3: You cannot replace that in bisilone.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say when you walked in today, the
Speaker 2: teeth have moved and you look a bit button like
Speaker 2: what happened to you on the holiday.
Speaker 3: Anyway, disastrous and now I'm back to square one.
Speaker 5: Well, heading to Barley soon. You look for the monkey
Speaker 5: with the really straight.
Speaker 4: There's one new monkey bachelor that is killing all right.
Speaker 5: Well, I feel like everyone has an animal running story.
Speaker 5: Cocker two once tried to bite me in the face.
Speaker 2: I once got shut on by a pelican.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's horrendous, like having a bucket of fish sauce
Speaker 2: thrown on you.
Speaker 4: I also got bitten by a camel.
Speaker 2: I think we're all trying to one up each other
Speaker 2: now with the worst animal stories.
Speaker 5: Well, you know what if you can top all of
