1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Now get after and everyone. It is Will and Woody,

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: one of the great comics on the planet at the moment,

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: is one of our friends have been very lucky to

4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: see at the Melbour Comedy Festival a couple of times.

5
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: The one and only Daniel Slosser joins us right now.

6
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: So much enthusiasm. One thing that's changed, one significant thing

7
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 2: that's changed since we last spoke to you, Daniel, You've

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 2: become a father man I have and.

9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 3: This time to my knowledge, so very exciting. You know,

10
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 3: what a great, great turn of events.

11
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: First question, how'd you go in the delivery suite?

12
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: But like it's it's so hard a bloke to like

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 3: talk about how traumatic it is because what you go

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 3: through is nothing compared to what she goes through. But

15
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 3: like I always I always describe it as like being

16
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: a dad in the room when your partner gives birth

17
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 3: is a lot like losing a leg in a war.

18
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 3: And then when you go you have to spend the

19
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 3: rest of your life living with someone who lost both

20
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 3: legs and both arms in the same war. Like your

21
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 3: life is different and it's changed, But it's impossible to

22
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 3: complain about that. Next to Stumpy because she went through

23
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 3: so much works, so you just have to sit there

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: and hop and pretend to everything's normal.

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 2: And of course then she's breastfeeding as well. Her job

26
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 2: is so much harder. And there you are with your

27
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: one leg going well, I'm going all right.

28
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah yeah. Oh man, you're so as the partner

29
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 3: in the room, you're so pointless. Man. There's nothing you

30
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 3: can do to make any of their suffering less. But

31
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 3: the worst thing you could do is not being there.

32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: There is a moment where your partner goes from trading

33
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: you with the respect and dignity that any adult relationship

34
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: offers into talking to you like a dog, you know,

35
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: where they're just like it's like no, no, that's okay,

36
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: that's okay, I'm okay, darling. And then there's just a

37
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: moment where it's like get off me.

38
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, do not stop.

39
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Why are you looking at me like that? Why you

40
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: look at me like that?

41
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 3: Can you come up here?

42
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: And you're like you just whipped around the room.

43
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 3: And because of the because of the contractions, because of

44
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 3: all the emotions running around, Like there's times in that

45
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: like I love you and I want you to touch

46
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 3: me and we can do this together. And then there's

47
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 3: other times and she's like, are you aware of how

48
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 3: low do you breathe? And I'm like, I'm so sorry,

49
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry. I'll work with it, please start.

50
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 2: I made the terrible mistake of trying to have amusedlyba

51
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: during one of the contractions that did not go down.

52
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: Absolute Mark mat you psycho path, you are there. You

53
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 3: were there to starve so that at least she knows

54
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 3: that you're suffering in some way. He of course you did.

55
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: There was a point where I suffered too much. I

56
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: got told to like to like cheer up. I got

57
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: told lady, yeah, because I've been standing there for twenty

58
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: hours like she labored for like twenty two it. I

59
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: was outrageous and I was just desolate, and she was like,

60
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: can you get pick yourself up?

61
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: I was in a much more situate like she's just

62
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: gone through this picture of real like but she lost

63
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 3: like a liter and a half of blood, which for

64
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 3: a five to two person is all of the blood

65
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 3: in her body. Right, so so afterwards, like she needs

66
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: to go through for surgery and stuff, and I'm just
