Speaker 2: Hi, Sarah, Hi.
Speaker 5: How's it going?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 5: I love you, guys, love you. I'm just I am
Speaker 5: in a real pickle. My best friend she's actually marrying
Speaker 5: my boyfriend who I was with for like six years,
Speaker 5: and I'm happily married. Yeah, like I'm happily married. I've
Speaker 5: in with my husband now for you know, a really
Speaker 5: long time, like five years now, and we've got two
Speaker 5: beautiful kids. We're so happy. But it's just it's a bit.
Speaker 5: I'm just I'm I'm sure whether or not I should
Speaker 5: go to the wedding. I've been invited, she's even floated
Speaker 5: the idea about me being a bridesmaid and everything. Oh,
Speaker 5: I just do know what to do.
Speaker 3: Please help me Okay, So how long has it been
Speaker 3: since you dated him?
Speaker 5: It's been about like ten years. I would say, do
Speaker 5: you hate me quite a while?
Speaker 4: Do you hang out with them?
Speaker 1: It's like, because she's your best friend, you like family friends,
Speaker 1: like going double dates and stuff regularly, or is this
Speaker 1: a weird like you don't often see them?
Speaker 5: No? See, we kind of like even our conversations are
Speaker 5: very minimal. When we talk about it, we just kind
Speaker 5: of it just gets a bit off and we kind
Speaker 5: of brush over because we know, you tether since we
Speaker 5: were like four or something, you know, so we just
Speaker 5: catch up for our girls drinks and you know that
Speaker 5: kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: What was it like when at the very start, like
Speaker 3: when she started dating, were you already happily in a
Speaker 3: new relationship and did she say, oh hey, i'm dating
Speaker 3: your ex boyfriendly? How did you find out? Was that
Speaker 3: an awkward period? Yes?
Speaker 6: It was.
Speaker 5: She sat me down and everything and kind of said, look,
Speaker 5: I know that you were, you know, with him for
Speaker 5: a really long time, but you know we got to
Speaker 5: talking and you know, they bumped into each other at
Speaker 5: like a work drinks function.
Speaker 1: I just think, Sarah, at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: like you don't have to do anything you're uncomfortable with.
Speaker 1: I'm sure your best friend would understand if you don't
Speaker 1: want to go and watch them get married because it
Speaker 1: will make you feel strange for some reason. I think
Speaker 1: you can explain that to it. I do think that's okay.
Speaker 1: But you you've also moved on and you've got your kids,
Speaker 1: and is it going to impact your friendship with your
Speaker 1: best friend if you don't go? And I think that
Speaker 1: is the really big question here? Can you rise above
Speaker 1: it for just a day to keep that friendship intact?
Speaker 3: I have a bit of a different take than Britt.
Speaker 3: I kind of think you should go. I think as
Speaker 3: her best friend, I think if you don't go, you're
Speaker 3: kind of making the day about yourself rather than it
Speaker 3: being about them. And you're happy if you want, If
Speaker 3: you still pined for him, if you still were thinking
Speaker 3: about the relationship that got away, but you're happily in
Speaker 3: a relationship and you've got two kids, I would just
Speaker 3: say go and support your best friend, but probably wouldn't
Speaker 3: be standing next to him, was the man opinion.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing. Do I go as a bridge?
Speaker 5: Do I say yes to being a bride as well?
Speaker 5: She's asking to be a bride. Beat at everything.
Speaker 6: I think you just.
Speaker 3: Say, you're probably pushing it a bit too far. Let
Speaker 3: me go, Let me go and have my distance and
Speaker 3: watch from afar.
Speaker 2: But I don't know, No, I think, go. But you
Speaker 2: have to have one speech, and you have as long
Speaker 2: as you want. You're allowed to go. But you say,
Speaker 2: I want to be able to have an open mic
Speaker 2: for as long as I need to vent and get
Speaker 2: because you know the parents, use your eggs, you know
Speaker 2: the parents of the family, you know all the brothers, and.
Speaker 5: Can you tell the exactly stay a picture like we
Speaker 5: lost it like we were each other's first we went
Speaker 5: to our formal together. I'm talking like we've known it,
Speaker 5: like we've all known each other for a really long time.
Speaker 5: I mean it ended kind of mutually as well. We
Speaker 5: kind of grew apart, you know when you reach that
Speaker 5: early twenties age as well, like you kind of like
Speaker 5: once we both hit twenty two, were like, I don't
Speaker 5: know buck you know? So anyway, Yeah, I like the
Speaker 5: idea about the speech though, Yeah, you need to make
Speaker 5: the speech.
Speaker 2: And I think you should be able to wear the
Speaker 2: garter and you get to throw the.
Speaker 4: Bakele and a longer, happier life than we had.
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, I love it. I'm writing this down.
Speaker 2: It's a shame the best sex of your life is
Speaker 2: behind you.
Speaker 3: Make sure you tell everyone exactly how you know the groom.
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, that's good. All right, if you haven't asked,
Speaker 2: gun cut, if you need some help or some advice,
Speaker 2: or we'll just laugh at you really like we just
Speaker 2: did hit us up on the pickup Socials or thirteen
Speaker 2: one oh six five. Now next Australia has a new
Speaker 2: worst neighbor.
Speaker 1: It's absolutely disgusting.
Speaker 4: I'd be moving immediately.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, that's next to the pickup. It's the
Speaker 2: pick up for your Friday afternoon. Britt, Laura and Mitch.
Speaker 2: We are here and of the week vibes or things
Speaker 2: to chemist warehouse running today, great savings every day.
Speaker 1: Last year, do you remember the pooh jogger that was
Speaker 1: going viral? I think it was the Sydney socialite Roxy
Speaker 1: de Senko. She discovered this pood jogger. He was just
Speaker 1: pooing out the front of people's lawns.
Speaker 3: And going for a jog and doing a pool. I
Speaker 3: love that we've we've reduced it down.
Speaker 4: The poo jogs. We've got a new one. We've got
Speaker 4: someone that I think has possibly trumped that.
Speaker 1: He's been named the balcony chunderer.
Speaker 4: What now.
Speaker 1: They are Every time they're going onto their balcony and
Speaker 1: an apartment block, they are.
Speaker 4: Vomiting over the side. And obviously it's a few stories up.
Speaker 1: The chunder is going on people's balconies, it's going on
Speaker 1: people's clothes when they're got their washing out down the bottom.
Speaker 4: It is going everywhere. He's a repeat chunder offender.
Speaker 1: They've started to put out because they can't talk who
Speaker 1: it's from, right, it must be a huge block.
Speaker 4: So it started to put all these public notices.
Speaker 1: Around being like, keep your under to yourself. If you're
Speaker 1: gonna go on your balcony to vomit, don't do it anymore.
Speaker 1: Put a bucket out, just go vomit and the toilet.
Speaker 2: Why are you.
Speaker 4: Vomiting so much?
Speaker 2: This is what the note said. This is what was
Speaker 2: put around in the Strata building. It said, your neighbors
Speaker 2: don't appreciate cleaning your vomit off our balconies, outdoor furniture,
Speaker 2: and our clothes that we're drying outside. Please do not
Speaker 2: vomit over the edge of the balcony.
Speaker 1: Well, it's been going for six months. It's like the
Speaker 1: biggest detective mystery, the balcony chunder.
Speaker 4: They can't figure out who it is.
Speaker 3: Becauld you imagine having somebody vomit off a balcony and like,
Speaker 3: imagine you wanted to they We're out there, what is
Speaker 3: this during the day though exactly like it's the middle
Speaker 3: of summertime. You're sitting out relaxing and all of a
Speaker 3: sudden splic It's like worse than being shot on by
Speaker 3: a pelican.
Speaker 4: Also, if you're the chunder and you're listening, go to
Speaker 4: the doctor. No one vomits that much. Something not something
Speaker 4: I reckon.
Speaker 3: It's a weekend vomit someone who's been having nothing.
Speaker 4: At any time of the day. No, that's not just weekends.
Speaker 2: I know an optimist. I think if you get vomited on,
Speaker 2: that's good luck.
Speaker 4: Mich that's being shipped on by birth.
Speaker 2: Oh is it?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 2: I got my wives crossed upon? All right, we'll keep
Speaker 2: the investigation into the balcony undergoing.
Speaker 3: If if I know anything about it, please slide into
Speaker 3: the dams or to cover this person.
Speaker 2: Next to the pickup. We love doing this we've done
Speaker 2: it before. What white lies have you had to tell
Speaker 2: your kids? Little white lies?
Speaker 3: I lighter my kids all the time. I lighted my children.
Speaker 2: I bribe them.
Speaker 3: It's the only way to get anything done. And anyone
Speaker 3: who says otherwise is a better parent than I am.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Plus, we've got five hundred dollars Chemists ware House
Speaker 2: gift card up for grabs. It's next at the pickup.
Speaker 2: It's the pickup for Laura and Mitch. Thanks to Chemist's Warehouse,
Speaker 2: Black Moore's executive be Stress Formulas two fifties are available
Speaker 2: now at Chemists Warehouse, but just forty seven ninety nine.
Speaker 2: Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
Speaker 3: So earlier this week, I was talking about some of
Speaker 3: the white lies that I've had to tell my children recently.
Speaker 3: Because Marley May, she's three and a half, she asked
Speaker 3: me how babies get inside tummies.
Speaker 4: She's not there yet, she's not there for the truth.
Speaker 4: She's not.
Speaker 3: I just said, because we love each other so much,
Speaker 3: it's spontaneous. When two people love each other and they
Speaker 3: want a baby, it appears in your belly spontaneously, spontaneo.
Speaker 2: And we're very creative.
Speaker 4: Could have gone with my stork, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Or downloads a USB stick or something. Put the USB
Speaker 2: stick a four year old.
Speaker 3: My part and Matt and I we've been very conscious
Speaker 3: about not wanting to try and lie too much. You know,
Speaker 3: we will to try and give them as close to
Speaker 3: the version as possible. But I just think three and
Speaker 3: a half is a bit too young to talk about
Speaker 3: the birds and the bees.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. It's clearly resonated with the pickup
Speaker 2: audience because there are a bunch of liars too. The
Speaker 2: amount of messages we got on the pick up socials
Speaker 2: about little white lies. They're telling their kids so many and.
Speaker 3: Do you know what, yours are way worse than mine.
Speaker 3: So I feel really good about myself.
Speaker 2: Rachel says. She tells her kids that the police paddy
Speaker 2: wagons that you know the kids see in this in
Speaker 2: the street are sleep police and they come to take
Speaker 2: kids away who don't sleep at bedtime, and they drive
Speaker 2: them around until they sleep and then return them to
Speaker 2: their home.
Speaker 4: That's a pretty hectic lie.
Speaker 3: I think this is terrible because you want to feel
Speaker 3: like a good relationship with your kids and police. You
Speaker 3: don't want your kids to be frightened at the police.
Speaker 3: They're going to come and take them in the nighttime.
Speaker 2: They're going to grow out of it. It's fine they
Speaker 2: or traumatize what they're twenty first, they're going to go.
Speaker 2: We don't want the police to be called. I don't
Speaker 2: want to sleep yet. I don't want to go to
Speaker 2: bed yet. Everyone go to sleep.
Speaker 4: No, they have to go to bed. That's why they
Speaker 4: don't have the party.
Speaker 3: It's brilliant.
Speaker 4: You can't have pie and because the police might come.
Speaker 1: What about the very standard like when you hear the
Speaker 1: ice cream truck coming down the road and they play yeah,
Speaker 1: you know the one who plays the music. Karen called
Speaker 1: in and she just tells the kids that, like, if
Speaker 1: the ice cream truck's playing the music, it means this
Speaker 1: run out of ice cream. Very standard for a lot
Speaker 1: of parents.
Speaker 2: I see.
Speaker 3: I think I'm going to use this one from Jacinta.
Speaker 3: She said, I told my daughter that if she doesn't
Speaker 3: stop drawing on the walls, they're going to open up
Speaker 3: and swallow her.
Speaker 4: The walls are and that's aggressive to you guys are scary?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: Well, we do have a five hundred dollar chemist to
Speaker 1: wear house about you to give away, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to award it today to Erica.
Speaker 2: Hi, Erica, welcome to the pickup. What you like?
Speaker 3: What have you been lying to your kids about?
Speaker 6: So my son found my very special toy. He was
Speaker 6: about five years old, and he was using it as
Speaker 6: a gum going pow pow pow. And then he said, Mommy,
Speaker 6: what is this for? And I said, oh, that's just
Speaker 6: mommy's foot massages. So I had to had to show
Speaker 6: him how I roll it on my on my sheet.
Speaker 1: Oh. I think this is funny because those special toys
Speaker 1: sometimes they sometimes they're just not one. It comes down
Speaker 1: with like a handle, like it looks like you could
Speaker 1: hold it there.
Speaker 3: Just pretending it's a their gun. Eric, make sure you
Speaker 3: hide and don't let him go play guns with it
Speaker 3: all the time.
Speaker 1: But definitely you you've won the five hundred dollars Chemist
Speaker 1: to wear House aboutcher.
Speaker 2: Eric, and make sure that you tell him that when
Speaker 2: he finally gets a partner, he doesn't go, hey, oh,
Speaker 2: let's let let's thank you guys five hundred bucks at
Speaker 2: chemistware House. Enjoy. That's the end of us. Will and
Speaker 2: Woody are up next. The boys are turning over the
Speaker 2: radio show to AI. The computers are in charge.
Speaker 4: That's gonna go.

Speaker 4: Wait, maybe we have a new job next year on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe. All right, we'll see you guys on Monday.
