Speaker 1: Laura and come on in.
Speaker 2: Hello, it's Halloween everyone.
Speaker 3: I'm sure you're aware.
Speaker 4: I would have rather Mitch played some audio of ghosts
Speaker 4: than hear that Laura.
Speaker 5: But that was a pretty good impression, I guess, than
Speaker 5: me trying to be a ghost. I feel like we
Speaker 5: should have worn costumes or something today.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I did think about it.
Speaker 1: That's a girl.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, stop it.
Speaker 4: But you know, I've actually seen ghosts in real life,
Speaker 4: so I believe in all this.
Speaker 5: Again, Brittin constantly says I'm really into ghosts, but what
Speaker 5: she means is that she she literally has seen ghosts,
Speaker 5: and I am, like have normally and in the past,
Speaker 5: been very dubious of this type of stuff. But some
Speaker 5: of BRIT's story is very convincing. And then I had
Speaker 5: an experience where I thought I saw my papa, so
Speaker 5: like I've come around a comforull circle.
Speaker 6: That's beautiful.
Speaker 1: I was attacked by a demon my ex eh.
Speaker 3: See that coming.
Speaker 5: Look, I am actually Look, I want to do the show.
Speaker 5: I'm excited about it, but I'm also very excited about
Speaker 5: when it ends, because it means I get to go
Speaker 5: and do trick or treating with the kids after this
Speaker 5: I'm going straight from here to pick up my kids
Speaker 5: and then we're going door knocking.
Speaker 3: Don't come to my house.
Speaker 2: You've got no treats.
Speaker 3: Don't have a lot of treats.
Speaker 2: Dog treats.
Speaker 3: That's a protein bar.
Speaker 5: Pretty give out hair vitamins to us, out some collagen supplements.
Speaker 3: There's great Elixa for your skin care.
Speaker 6: Do you give out Tony May your house? Like just
Speaker 6: earrings and jewelry.
Speaker 2: We don't give away anything because we're out of the house.
Speaker 5: No one's there, because we've got our own kids and
Speaker 5: we're getting free treats from everybody.
Speaker 2: Else in the street.
Speaker 4: Hey, look, the reason I am super into ghost is
Speaker 4: because I have seen them. Like we said, but I
Speaker 4: am going to convince you guys, Mitch and Laura today
Speaker 4: we are bringing some real life ghostbusters onto the pickup.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 2: I'm actually so excited.
Speaker 6: These guys find and hunt and talk to ghosts here
Speaker 6: in Australia on a podcast YouTube series and apparently they're
Speaker 6: bringing proof that ghosts exist on the show today. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, look, before we get into the show, I do
Speaker 5: want to say one little reminder. There are so many
Speaker 5: people and so many kids that are going to be
Speaker 5: out in the streets this afternoon from right now trick
Speaker 5: or treating. So if you're in your cars driving, just
Speaker 5: keep a really close eye out and drive safe.
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, Ask on cut. Next, We've got a
Speaker 1: very big question.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, what do you want to do? What do
Speaker 3: you want to do? What do you do if you
Speaker 3: want to a lope?
Speaker 4: You have like a huge family that wants to have
Speaker 4: a huge, big Greek wedding.
Speaker 1: Yep, huge, that's next time the pickup. Welcome to a
Speaker 1: Halloween Arodus.
Speaker 2: Ask uncut, Hi.
Speaker 3: I love Ask on cut.
Speaker 4: Ask on cut is where you, guys the listeners call
Speaker 4: up or you're writing with your biggest problems and we
Speaker 4: do our best to help. We have Erin on the
Speaker 4: phone today with a problem that I can relate to myself.
Speaker 4: Aaron is getting married, but she's from a big family.
Speaker 4: She wants to alope and she doesn't know how to
Speaker 4: bring that up with her family. Hate Erin, Hi, guys,
Speaker 4: have you planned your wedding yet?
Speaker 3: Erin?
Speaker 8: So, I've got little bits and pieces like a wedding
Speaker 8: dress and a flower girl dress. But that's that's to
Speaker 8: the extent of it. Because we don't want to lock
Speaker 8: anything in until we confirm, and I guess break the
Speaker 8: news to the wider family.
Speaker 5: How many people do your parents? I guess, because they're
Speaker 5: probably the ones that care the most. How many people
Speaker 5: do they expect you to have at your wedding?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 2: How big is the expectation for it to be.
Speaker 8: I'm from a European background. If it was a European yeah,
Speaker 8: if it was a European wedding all round, it would
Speaker 8: probably be close to like one hundred and fifty people,
Speaker 8: I guess.
Speaker 2: But it's a big wedding.
Speaker 8: I'm fortunate that my partner has a very small family,
Speaker 8: so it's definitely going to be if if we were
Speaker 8: to choose a normal wedding, it would be quite a
Speaker 8: small wedding of eighty people because he sided so small.
Speaker 8: But I just myself, my partner, we just don't really
Speaker 8: want to do that. It's not what we want. We've
Speaker 8: already had the little kids.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, well, Aaron, I think.
Speaker 8: We've got our house, so we don't see the point
Speaker 8: in spending so much money for something like that.
Speaker 4: I think you just said it there yourself. You said,
Speaker 4: my partner and I don't want that. I think that's
Speaker 4: your answer. At the end of the day. I know
Speaker 4: there's a lot of people whose feathers get ruffled when
Speaker 4: you say, hey, I'm not going to have a huge
Speaker 4: wedding or I'm not inviting great Arnie Sharon.
Speaker 3: At the end of the day, you're getting married for
Speaker 3: you guys.
Speaker 4: And if they're not funding the wedding, which they don't
Speaker 4: have to do, it's not the expectation. But they can't
Speaker 4: sit back and say, hey, have a huge wedding with
Speaker 4: two hundred people. But also you pay for it. If
Speaker 4: you don't want it and you don't have the finances
Speaker 4: for it, I'd just be getting a loop and then
Speaker 4: I would tell them I'm just say, hey, it's already happened.
Speaker 5: That's the big question, right Do you ask for permission
Speaker 5: or do you ask for forgiveness afterwards?
Speaker 6: I say, normally in my life my motto is beg
Speaker 6: for forgiveness after I don't see ession. Have you said, oh,
Speaker 6: we're interested in this, we don't want what you and
Speaker 6: dad had like if you had those conversations.
Speaker 8: Absolutely, We've slided it in a few times in conversations
Speaker 8: where we've had dinner over the parents' house and you know,
Speaker 8: it's just sort of like that awkward silence moment after that,
Speaker 8: and then Mum will pull you aside when you're doing
Speaker 8: the dishes after dinner, going well, you know that's not
Speaker 8: you know how we do things and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: Oh, Aaron, who do you want at your wedding?
Speaker 2: If you're going to all lobe?
Speaker 5: Like, ideally, if you could you know, set the scene,
Speaker 5: who's going to be there from the family or is
Speaker 5: it just going to be you and your husband?
Speaker 8: Ideally I would love my parents and my partner's parents
Speaker 8: and my two little kids. That would that would mean
Speaker 8: the world to me. Just a small intimate ceremony and
Speaker 8: then that way we could you know, spend a little
Speaker 8: bit more like depending on where we would elope to,
Speaker 8: then we could spend like a week there and just
Speaker 8: on one before we come back to reality.
Speaker 2: Doesn't it?
Speaker 3: Okay, here's what you're going to do. Strap in what
Speaker 3: you're going to do.
Speaker 4: You've already got your dress, You've got the flower girl
Speaker 4: dress for your daughter. You're gonna go You're gonna organize
Speaker 4: the elopement and you're going to go to respective parents
Speaker 4: and say, hey, I understand you're going to be upset
Speaker 4: by this, but this is the decision we've made. I
Speaker 4: want you there more than anything, and I hope you come,
Speaker 4: but we're not changing our plan. And they're your parents.
Speaker 4: They're gonna come, whether they're unhappy or not. Then you
Speaker 4: do Mitch's thing where you lay on the ground, kiss
Speaker 4: their feet, beg for forgiveness.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Always, Yeah, you've got it.
Speaker 5: You can't, especially when it comes to your wedding. You
Speaker 5: can't bend over backwards to make everyone else happy. You're
Speaker 5: gonna end up with the day that is what you wanted.
Speaker 3: Bloody expensive.
Speaker 4: You don't want to be dropping like weddings like eighty
Speaker 4: to one hundred grand, so many people.
Speaker 5: This is the thing about European weddings, though, is that
Speaker 5: the money comes back to you because when you go
Speaker 5: to a wedding, you give money. Then they come to
Speaker 5: your wedding, they give money. It kind of is like
Speaker 5: a big circle of life of wedding life.
Speaker 4: Not enough, not enough, No, they don't give enough.
Speaker 1: We hope we helped.
Speaker 8: I love it. I think that's a very good suggestion.
Speaker 8: I think I don't know. I put my big girl
Speaker 8: pants on and have an upfront conversation with them.
Speaker 6: I guess if you've got a question you want to
Speaker 6: help with, you can go to the pickup dot com.
Speaker 6: Don't you write into us on our website now? Next,
Speaker 6: every I don't mean to scare you. We have proof
Speaker 6: that ghosts are real. The Australian Ghost Whisperers are joining
Speaker 6: us on the show.
Speaker 2: How are we feeling very special Halloween?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I think it's now the time. Britney's already all across it.
Speaker 2: She loves a ghost I'm not.
Speaker 3: Worried about it. I feel like I'm going to connect
Speaker 3: with them on another level. I might join them. Actually,
Speaker 3: I might start ghostbusting.
Speaker 6: Sure when I got to stop The Australian Ghost Whispers
Speaker 6: live for a Halloween pick up. Next, it is, of course,
Speaker 6: ladies Halloween.
Speaker 3: I'm not a halloweener.
Speaker 4: I love ghosts, but I'm not that I don't dress up,
Speaker 4: I don't have kids to take trigger treating.
Speaker 5: Every time you say you love ghosts, I feel like
Speaker 5: you need to add context to that.
Speaker 3: Not so, I just like tho.
Speaker 5: Britney sees ghosts. She talked about it before.
Speaker 3: I've seen a few ghosts. Yeah, she talked.
Speaker 1: About a lot of things. That's the problem. So it's
Speaker 1: hard to work about which is important and which isn't.
Speaker 6: Thank God, We've got some specialists, some spooky specialists in
Speaker 6: the studio with us now. You may know them from
Speaker 6: their YouTube series The Australian Ghost Whisper or their podcast
Speaker 6: as well. They are very interesting. Katerina Legato and James
Speaker 6: Jennings join us the ghost Hunters. Welcome you to Hello,
Speaker 6: thank you, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 2: The ghost Hunters. Hello, the Ghostbusters?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, or ghost whispers? Is that what you call yourself?
Speaker 8: Yes?
Speaker 9: It all works though in SAE and in terms of ghostbusting.
Speaker 9: I've always thought that we should wear matching jumpsuits, but
Speaker 9: Katerine is not sold on the idea.
Speaker 4: How does one find themselves with the job title of
Speaker 4: ghost whisperer?
Speaker 7: Oh okay, Well, the work actually found me. From when
Speaker 7: I was very young. I was always able to see
Speaker 7: spirit and communicate with dead people. As I as I
Speaker 7: got older and moved through life, I just found myself
Speaker 7: helping more and more people with my gifts and giving
Speaker 7: them guidance and messages from the other side. And then
Speaker 7: it just became a full time job. I've been doing
Speaker 7: this full time for thirty years. Wow, time for thirty
Speaker 7: thirty years full time.
Speaker 5: A lot of the stuff on your Instagram is around
Speaker 5: like evil spirits. Is it mostly what you encounter evil
Speaker 5: spirits or is it peoples whose loved ones haven't crossed over?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 2: What is your experience a ghosts.
Speaker 7: Yes, it's a lot of people would love to hear
Speaker 7: from the other side, from loved ones from the other side.
Speaker 7: So I do a lot of those readings for people.
Speaker 7: But I have also dealt with lost souls and evil
Speaker 7: spirits when I go into homes to do house clearings.
Speaker 4: James, you are the print editor of Rolling Stone magazine.
Speaker 3: You've been a journalist for twenty years.
Speaker 4: How did you find yourself as also a ghost whisperer.
Speaker 9: Well, look, I have had I guess you could say
Speaker 9: supernatural instances throughout my life. So I have had what
Speaker 9: I would call proof, personal proof. I've had experiences which
Speaker 9: have proved you, on a shadow of doubt that it's real.
Speaker 4: What's the craziest thing that comes to mind that you've experienced.
Speaker 1: There's a few.
Speaker 9: The most recent is we did a podcast and YouTube
Speaker 9: episode where we actually caught a demon on cam. So
Speaker 9: a photo of a demonic being it's legit, and we've
Speaker 9: got that photo up on our Instagram and it's in
Speaker 9: the YouTube series.
Speaker 3: And what happened?
Speaker 6: We have the moment actually, James, we got it off
Speaker 6: your YouTube. Okay, so here it is.
Speaker 1: This is the moment James is talking about.
Speaker 9: But the biggest surprise came when another spirit haunting the
Speaker 9: property gave us some very specific instructions.
Speaker 2: Hello, here, did we take a photo? Then we take
Speaker 2: a photo of the room? Said.
Speaker 9: We took the photos and didn't notice anything strange at
Speaker 9: the time, but upon closer inspection a few weeks later,
Speaker 9: we made a terrifying discovery. By zooming in on a mirror,
Speaker 9: we found we'd capture the reflection of a demonic creature
Speaker 9: hiding in another room.
Speaker 2: What do you do when you discover this?
Speaker 3: I've just seen the photo.
Speaker 2: We just saw it before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, before that, how did you get that audio of
Speaker 4: the ghost that said take a photo like that?
Speaker 6: Okay?
Speaker 9: So, in terms of ghost hunting, there is a device
Speaker 9: people use called a spirit box, and essentially it's like
Speaker 9: it's like a frequency scanner, and the theory of it
Speaker 9: is that like spirits can tune into the frequency and
Speaker 9: speak through it. So if you watch any ghost hunting
Speaker 9: TV shows or anything, people use this as a device
Speaker 9: to get messages through.
Speaker 2: What did you do when you saw this?
Speaker 5: And you say that you often go and do clearings
Speaker 5: to clear spirits from a place.
Speaker 2: What does that involve and what does that look like?
Speaker 7: So generally I go to the house that is being
Speaker 7: that has the issues going on, and I have obviously
Speaker 7: my own ritual and way of bringing the spirits together
Speaker 7: and calming them and helping them to understand that I'm
Speaker 7: there to help them, not to kind of scare them
Speaker 7: any further, because they are quite afraid they're lost, They're
Speaker 7: in limbo, so you know, you have to put a
Speaker 7: lot of love into it and generally help them to
Speaker 7: move into the spirit. Well, often there's family members, pets
Speaker 7: waiting for them.
Speaker 1: We're going to go to a break. It is Halloween
Speaker 1: here at the Pickup and.
Speaker 6: Everywhere, not just the pick We celebrate all holidays here
Speaker 6: at the Pickup. We're here with the Australian Ghost whisper
Speaker 6: More with you guys when we come back. You right
Speaker 6: to stick around sure? All right after this on the
Speaker 6: pickup joining us in studio the Australian Ghost Whisperers, psychic
Speaker 6: medium Katerina Legado and James Jennings now I believe, Katerina.
Speaker 6: We wanted to ask if, because you can send spirits
Speaker 6: in any room, can you send spirits.
Speaker 7: In people, Yes, if there's somebody on the other side, Yes, yes,
Speaker 7: I do.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Have you at all in being here felt anything or
Speaker 5: sense anything since you've been here?
Speaker 7: I do feel like there is an older man around you, Mitch,
Speaker 7: like a like a grandfather, like a really maybe great grandfather.
Speaker 7: But I feel that he is holding space for you
Speaker 7: at a very emotional time, and I feel that he's
Speaker 7: wanting me to let you know that things are going
Speaker 7: to be okay for you, that you're moving through a
Speaker 7: really incredibly challenging process this time in your life. He's
Speaker 7: showing me like this pretty rainbow bridge, like things are
Speaker 7: going to be happy, even though right now you're.
Speaker 3: Not feeling that way.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Very sweet, because he's showing me the rainbow for you
Speaker 7: and his way of reassuring you that you are moving
Speaker 7: into happier times.
Speaker 1: This stuff going on in my personal life, and that
Speaker 1: feels really happy.
Speaker 7: I feel he was like a father figure almost for you,
Speaker 7: very involved in your life. That's what he's saying to me. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 7: he was funny. I feel he's really funny, and I
Speaker 7: feel like he's been sad to see you moving, you know,
Speaker 7: being so sad, but he's also kind of saying it's okay.
Speaker 7: You know, it's okay to feel sad, and it's okay
Speaker 7: to move through all of this.
Speaker 6: That's beautiful so much that's really has, you know, tugged
Speaker 6: on the heartstrings the girls.
Speaker 7: I'm sensing I'm not sure, are you wanting another child?
Speaker 7: Kept sensing a little Laura, Laura, like a little boy
Speaker 7: around you.
Speaker 5: I would love to have another baby. We talk about
Speaker 5: all the time. Allowed Britti's gonna kill me if I
Speaker 5: have another kids. It's not great for business, but I
Speaker 5: would love to have it.
Speaker 3: I feel you will.
Speaker 7: Ever ever, since I walked in here, I felt this
Speaker 7: little child around you, this really playful little boy, and
Speaker 7: it's like, come on, I just want to come in
Speaker 7: and I want to So this is with my sisters.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 5: I would love the context of this though, because I mean,
Speaker 5: we're talking about spirits that have passed on, so children
Speaker 5: that haven't been born yet are people that you can
Speaker 5: tap into.
Speaker 7: This little boy is part of your soul family. So
Speaker 7: you've perhaps been together in prior lifetime, so we come
Speaker 7: together with our soul groups.
Speaker 3: So I feel like this.
Speaker 7: Little boy is kind of waiting for you to do
Speaker 7: a little slip up with Habby and Laura.
Speaker 4: Laura's already got two kids, so coming over to me.
Speaker 4: Are there any soul families in my in my aura.
Speaker 3: I have any soul kids, Like.
Speaker 7: I feel that you need to let go of whatever
Speaker 7: grief emotions are around children. I just feel that the
Speaker 7: more you let go of whatever it is that you're
Speaker 7: holding on to around that concept of family children, I
Speaker 7: do feel that there will be children in your life,
Speaker 7: even though you feel like somehow, I don't know, I
Speaker 7: feel like you're quite distanced from that feeling of children.
Speaker 7: But I do feel like there's going to be like
Speaker 7: a surprise, it will happen for you.
Speaker 1: Another slipper.
Speaker 5: That is exactly how you feel. You've spoken about it
Speaker 5: a little bit recently around.
Speaker 7: Yeah, have you been given like negative information around fertility
Speaker 7: or have you received negative news? Yeah, it's like, don't
Speaker 7: listen to it. You are the master of your own reality, right.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well I have babies in the freezer. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: you hear from them? Or are they two frozen?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 3: No, I have embryos frozen.
Speaker 7: I don't know, I see, but for that are fertile
Speaker 7: four that are going to be really good.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay, well enough about my frozen children.
Speaker 1: It's incredible.
Speaker 3: Do you ever come across James like, do you ever
Speaker 3: feel like, oh my god.
Speaker 4: These are really bad spirits that we need to like,
Speaker 4: do you ever feel worried or unsafe or you always like, no,
Speaker 4: it's cute, We're here to help.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no no.
Speaker 9: I would say it's more common to pick up on
Speaker 9: the dark, nasty stuff because I feel like maybe they
Speaker 9: want to let you know that they're there, Like they
Speaker 9: want to scare you, they want to freak you out.
Speaker 9: So like, as an example, I lived in a house
Speaker 9: many years ago and I was kept getting worken up
Speaker 9: at night because I was getting shaken. I was literally
Speaker 9: getting shaken awake, and I would see kind of like
Speaker 9: handprints on the duna type situation.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was so terrifying.
Speaker 9: And that's how Caterina and I met because I was like,
Speaker 9: I want to move, a want to move, and someone
Speaker 9: put me in touch with Catarina. She came in, she
Speaker 9: completely cleared the place and we became friends and we've
Speaker 9: been friends and that's how we sort of began our
Speaker 9: journey onto the podcast and YouTube is so cool.
Speaker 4: I have so many questions I know are at a time.
Speaker 6: The Australian goes with Bright they've got a YouTube channel.
Speaker 6: You do a podcast too, Yes, and that's available everywhere.
Speaker 6: It's available everywhere.
