Speaker 1: he is, what he stands for, his songs, how funny
Speaker 1: he is.
Speaker 4: He also is Scottish, lives in Glasgow, where I used
Speaker 4: to live.
Speaker 1: So when I met my partner now Ben, who happens
Speaker 1: to live in Scotland, I told Ben, I said, like,
Speaker 1: one day, somehow you need to make friends with Lewis
Speaker 1: so that you can ask him to play the wedding.
Speaker 1: When I went to Scotland recently, this sounds my stalker.
Speaker 1: I didn't find out where he lives. But Ben was like,
Speaker 1: oh he lives around the corner.
Speaker 6: Sure that's I'm sure that's exactly how it played out.
Speaker 6: Ah play that's Lewis Caparti lives.
Speaker 3: How did you know? How did you find out?
Speaker 5: Ben lives in a nice area around the corner from him?
Speaker 5: So I used to just pray.
Speaker 4: I was like, I hope I will past you one
Speaker 4: day I'll just say hello, that was it.
Speaker 5: I'm not going to stalk him.
Speaker 1: So Ben is a football player for Celtic. They won
Speaker 1: this huge football competition and two nights ago and they
Speaker 1: all went out to celebrate. They're in the bar and
Speaker 1: none other than Lewis Capaldi walks in. Lewis happens to
Speaker 1: be a humongous Celtic football fan, like to the point
Speaker 1: that all Lewis's stories right now are of Celtic, Like
Speaker 1: he's that happy that he's posting about them.
Speaker 2: Okay, but you're not at this event, you're just your boyfriend.
Speaker 1: Just Ben is there with his football team. So Lewis
Speaker 1: comes over and joins them in this private party. And
Speaker 1: now he comes up to Ben and he's like hey,
Speaker 1: big lad, well done, like you know, high five and
Speaker 1: him talking to him, and he's very intoxicated. Lewis has
Speaker 1: been having his own party, his own celebration. He's very intoxicated. Now,
Speaker 1: bless Ben's soul. He took this opportunity and he's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, now's the time.
Speaker 2: Because Ben knows how much you love Lewis and.
Speaker 5: Knows how much I love Lewis.
Speaker 1: So Ben said to him, my partner really wants you
Speaker 1: to sing at our wedding.
Speaker 5: It would mean the world to us.
Speaker 4: Like he threw his in and Lewis said absolutely, Oh.
Speaker 6: My, did he sign any contract because I'm gonna say
Speaker 6: that he's probably gonna wake up on the next day
Speaker 6: and not have any memory of this.
Speaker 7: Yeah, And I feel like I don't think he'd be
Speaker 7: asked to sing it many away on a night out.
Speaker 3: And he just says yes, and then he knows he's
Speaker 3: never going to see them again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he probably said yes. He probably has no memory.
Speaker 1: But now I'm making this a thing.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna hold this. We're gonna hold him to it.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 6: Okay, can you give us a bit of an idea
Speaker 6: when the wedding's going to be britt, just so he
Speaker 6: also can trick you, diary.
Speaker 5: I will get married to suit Lewis.
Speaker 4: If Lewis says that he can play this date.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 1: I will.
Speaker 6: It doesn't matter if it's to ban or whoever has
Speaker 6: ben feel about this since he's yet to propose.
Speaker 3: Watch this space.
Speaker 7: Okay, we'll get you up date and it's a pick
Speaker 7: up Tuesday. On the pick up, it's Britt Laura and
Speaker 7: Mitch here. Thanks to chemist warehouse head in today get
Speaker 7: great savings every day.
Speaker 3: So normally baby reveals are quite the celebration.
Speaker 2: Half gender reveals. Let's just straight off the bat. I
Speaker 2: hate them.
Speaker 3: Why I do hate them?
Speaker 2: Just because crate like grow up. It's too much for me.
Speaker 6: Okay, I understand that there's different people feel differently about it.
Speaker 6: But a lot of people really care about having gender
Speaker 6: reveal parties, and they really care about the gender reveal.
Speaker 6: It's a big part of some people's pregnancy experience. They
Speaker 6: have a big party. They might do like the balloon
Speaker 6: popping or the cake smashing or something. Normally it's a
Speaker 6: really beautiful celebration. Now there is a mother in the
Speaker 6: US who recently had a gender reveal party and things
Speaker 6: didn't go exactly to plan.
Speaker 7: She really knew, so she's kicking things.
Speaker 3: Yep, some stuff's getting broken.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, she's throwing the cake.
Speaker 3: No, there's a table being flipped.
Speaker 2: What would happen?
Speaker 5: Did she just get some bad news on the phone.
Speaker 6: Okay, this soon to be mother has just gotten the
Speaker 6: news that she is having yet another baby girl, and
Speaker 6: she went on a full blown rampage. She demolished her
Speaker 6: own baby shower because she was so angry and so
Speaker 6: disappointed by the outcome. This is a mass one point
Speaker 6: two million views online and I mean, like nobody's watching
Speaker 6: this video going oh yeah, I understand. I felt a
Speaker 6: bit appointed when I found out I was having another
Speaker 6: girl as well. People are watching this and thinking, what
Speaker 6: is this absolute insanity?
Speaker 1: If you knew you only wanted a boy and you've
Speaker 1: got fifty to fifty chance of having a girl, why
Speaker 1: would you have a big event with people there, like
Speaker 1: find down the privacy of your own home.
Speaker 6: Maybe she was so convinced, like I mean when I
Speaker 6: was having Lola. Weirdly, I had this overwhelming sense in
Speaker 6: my whole body. I was convinced she was a boy,
Speaker 6: but point proven and then she came out as.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they pulled her out she was a girl, and
Speaker 3: I was like, oh check again. They checked again, and
Speaker 3: I was like.
Speaker 2: Still a girl. Wow, Now are you sad?
Speaker 3: No? I wasn't sad.
Speaker 6: I didn't like it's a weird one because I wasn't
Speaker 6: disappointed that she was a girl. I love being a
Speaker 6: mum to girls. But it was like a moment of
Speaker 6: shock because I definitely thought she was going to be
Speaker 6: a boy, because everything about that pregnancy was different. But
Speaker 6: this is a very, very extreme version, more than extreme
Speaker 6: version of gender disappointment.
Speaker 3: Is this something that you've heard about before.
Speaker 6: It's like when you find out the sex of your
Speaker 6: baby and you're so bitterly disappointed, but normally people don't
Speaker 6: express it so publicly.
Speaker 4: But this poor child, Like once something's on the internet's
Speaker 4: on the internet.
Speaker 1: When this child grows up googles its mum, it finds
Speaker 1: out that that was the reaction to its its identity.
Speaker 3: It's so toxic.
Speaker 6: Is that it makes me think though her reaction was
Speaker 6: so severe and it was so it was so toxic
Speaker 6: that it makes me worry that she's not gonna be
Speaker 6: able to be a loving mum to a girl, Like
Speaker 6: she's going to end up bringing this little girl into
Speaker 6: the world and there will be some residual resentment that
Speaker 6: she wasn't a boy.
Speaker 3: It's just so much pressure.
Speaker 2: Wait, Laura, is gender disappointment real? It's an actual thing
Speaker 2: that people go through.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a real thing that some moms go through.
Speaker 6: And I know that there's a lot of shame talking
Speaker 6: about it because I speak on behalf of friends that
Speaker 6: I know, or people who you know from mother's group
Speaker 6: who experienced it. It's this feeling where you maybe you
Speaker 6: already have a boy and you wanted a girl, or
Speaker 6: maybe you always saw yourself as a girl mom or
Speaker 6: a boy mom. As as silly as it might sound,
Speaker 6: it's this coming to terms with the identity of what
Speaker 6: you thought your parenting experience is going to be. It's
Speaker 6: something completely different, and people who have gender disappointment often
Speaker 6: feel so shameful that they can't speak about it because
Speaker 6: for some people, when you think about it, it's like,
Speaker 6: you know, they don't want to speak about it publicly
Speaker 6: because they feel so guilty for experiencing it when they're
Speaker 6: so privileged to have a baby in the first place.
Speaker 6: There's so many people who can't have kids. There's so
Speaker 6: many people who struggle with their fertility. So to think
Speaker 6: that there's some people out there who have been able
Speaker 6: to have the blessing of having a baby and yet
Speaker 6: they're still disappointed.
Speaker 1: You should just be grateful that you've had a child,
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what it is.
Speaker 6: It feels really entitled, But just because it is something
Speaker 6: that maybe feels really entitled or it feels like you're
Speaker 6: not allowed to experience these feelings.
Speaker 3: Doesn't mean that those feelings don't exist.
Speaker 7: Okay, if you're a person that really wants one gender
Speaker 7: or more than the other, don't throw a gender reveal party,
Speaker 7: oh because the odds are fifty to fifty. It's not
Speaker 7: a meat raffle. There's not a one hundred different options.
Speaker 7: It's a or B boy or girl.
Speaker 5: But I do it at home totally.
Speaker 6: I think it hits some people though, and they don't
Speaker 6: expect it safe padded room.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the doctor's office, so you can be you know.
Speaker 3: You can drink.
Speaker 6: I think the more people experience this than then what
Speaker 6: let on, that's for sure. Maybe not to this extreme extent.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 7: Next on the show, Laura, I believe you've had a
Speaker 7: Facebook Marketplace mishap.
Speaker 6: Something went down on Marketplace and I feel like I
Speaker 6: need a bit of a refund.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, it's the wild West out there on Marketplace.
Speaker 3: Certa LEAs well.
Speaker 7: I'm pack it after this at the Pickup Tuesday afternoon
Speaker 7: on the Pickup with Britt, Laura and Mitch or thanks
Speaker 7: to Chemist Warehouse right now, get half price off cosmetics
Speaker 7: across the Maybe Lane, Revlon Rimmel and nude by Nature Rangers,
Speaker 7: all at Chemists, Warehouse guys.
Speaker 6: I am so late to the party, so late which party?
Speaker 6: I have become obsessed with Facebook Marketplace.
Speaker 2: Oh, welcome to the dark side.
Speaker 6: I have been buying so many things. I genuinely love it.
Speaker 2: Like Laura or a city jacket. Marketplace. How much did
Speaker 2: you pack a place? See this Unday's Marketplace, Babey. I
Speaker 2: live on Facebook Marketplace.
Speaker 6: Literally, I have bought so many things recently, and like
Speaker 6: now I'm buying things that I don't need that I
Speaker 6: never wanted that I never even thought I should have
Speaker 6: in my house.
Speaker 3: I have enough crap in my house.
Speaker 6: But the other day I was talking to Matt and
Speaker 6: we're moving soon, and I was like, I think we
Speaker 6: need a new dining table, and ours is like it's
Speaker 6: survived a few children, like it is looking worse for wear.
Speaker 6: It was like kids drawings in it. And I was like,
Speaker 6: do you know where I'm gonna get our table from?
Speaker 5: Marketplace?
Speaker 3: Marketplace?
Speaker 6: So I went online and I was doing some digging
Speaker 6: and I found one that I was like, I reckon,
Speaker 6: this is our this is our table.
Speaker 3: I don't want to read you listing up for sale?
Speaker 6: Is this gorgeous limited edition Ikea cork standing desk dining
Speaker 6: room table.
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's a sit and stand desk for a
Speaker 3: dining table and I work from.
Speaker 2: Home space, I'm going home.
Speaker 6: The cooke top is no longer available anywhere and was
Speaker 6: a limited run only on Ikea Australia. We installed the
Speaker 6: electric legs on it, so it really is a one
Speaker 6: of a kind piece.
Speaker 3: Well, it works perfectly.
Speaker 6: The cork is lovely to work on and it's not
Speaker 6: harsh or a hard metal, easy to work or sit
Speaker 6: at all day long. Pick up, well, we all know
Speaker 6: where the pickup is.
Speaker 3: It's Mitury House. Now now, now, now, now now.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, do you want to buy it? I'll give
Speaker 2: you a great price.
Speaker 6: I saw this listing five hundred and eighty dollars a
Speaker 6: little bit steep. I saw this listing for this table,
Speaker 6: and I thought, before I saw who's listing it was,
Speaker 6: I was like, that is a great table.
Speaker 3: That's a great table.
Speaker 6: So then the next thing I did is I looked
Speaker 6: at this person's cellar rating on Facebook Marketplace. Now, if
Speaker 6: you listened to last week's shows, you might all remember
Speaker 6: that I got dragged for my uber rating.
Speaker 3: This one is really telling the amount of one stars.
Speaker 2: My god.
Speaker 6: Okay, I may have gotten nineteen one star reviews on
Speaker 6: Uber and that was out of six hundred, six hundred
Speaker 6: and seventy five Uber trips, which when you do the
Speaker 6: mass on that is a it's a point something of
Speaker 6: a percentage. It is so minimal, it is minuscule, and
Speaker 6: you made me suffer for two weeks. Your one star
Speaker 6: rating or Marketplace is fifty percent. No, it's not fifty
Speaker 6: percent of all.
Speaker 3: Of your rating.
Speaker 5: Here it is done.
Speaker 2: That's where are my printouts. I didn't get those papers.
Speaker 3: And here are some of the pinch points.
Speaker 6: Number one communication, number two, pricing, Number three, this is
Speaker 6: from another one punctuality, communication, pricing and item description.
Speaker 3: You got everything wrong.
Speaker 6: Number four punctuality, communication, pricing and item description.
Speaker 3: Again, out of eight things that you've sold four people.
Speaker 2: Here is that? Now? That was she sold me a
Speaker 2: bun kettle. I was serious with that.
Speaker 4: No, you know why everyone's got a problem with the description.
Speaker 5: You've literally written in this description.
Speaker 4: The cook top is no longer available.
Speaker 5: You meant to say cork top.
Speaker 2: Yeah, people think cook top.
Speaker 7: No listen, people on Facebook, Marketplace. I'm embarrassed. People on
Speaker 7: Facebook marketplace are awful and they're the scum of the
Speaker 7: earth and they fight and I'm I fight.
Speaker 4: You are the person on Facebook, mumplayers you are this
Speaker 4: come up?
Speaker 3: I have to tell you this is actually what happened.
Speaker 6: My staff, one of my staff at Tony May was
Speaker 6: gonna buy this table and then she sent.
Speaker 3: Me the screenshots and was like, isn't this your goals?
Speaker 3: Why is his rating so bad?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Fine?
Speaker 2: Does she want it? Because, like I said, I'll give
Speaker 2: her ten months off.
Speaker 3: She's scared to come out and pick it up from
Speaker 3: your house.
Speaker 5: Though very nice, you should be mortified.
Speaker 7: Okay, I will work on my let me get this. Yeah,
Speaker 7: I'll work on my pricing, my communication. This one says
Speaker 7: he needs to work on his hair, get real personal.
Speaker 5: An't that Jesus attitude?
Speaker 7: I'm so embarrassed. Okay, let's go, let's go home. See
Speaker 7: you tomorrow. Everybody will and wood you wrap next. You
Speaker 7: can podcast the whole show this week on the iHeartRadio
Speaker 7: app so it could pick up.
Speaker 3: So bye.
