00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,000

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: Singapore straight to the top page, but they charge.

27
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,520

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: Gee? I'm easily please. But if you if you ask

29
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 2: me for preference between sort of hinterland, country and coast,

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: I would say coast.

31
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're a beach.

32
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: I'm more beach. I live at Talking now in Melbourne,

33
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 2: which is a beautiful The surf coast is beautiful.

34
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: Well, you've got the Bells Beach surf comb up.

35
00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 2: There, yeah, and all around that area is just beautiful escape.

36
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: But there's beautiful landscape up here around the coast as well.

37
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: So any beachy vibe is going to please me.

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you're a beach bunny. If you could have

39
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: a superpower, what would it be.

40
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: I think it'd be very handed to be able to

41
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 2: mind read helped to predict what others are potentially going

42
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 2: to say or think. That'd be handy, not necessarily in

43
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: a good way, but it probably might alert you to

44
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 2: a few red flags.

45
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: That's fair. Do you have a favorite song, like a

00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: Exactly, And it does pump you up a bit too,

100
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 2: because it's sort of really captivating.

101
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: I have to ask you having a vet on the pod, Yes, favorite.

102
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: Animal, Well, I love my border collie chet. I love dogs.

103
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: I love dogs, But.

104
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: So dogs win over cats in your eyes?

105
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:28,119
Speaker 2: They do for me personally. Yeah, cats, Cats are good

106
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 2: animals for people that are independent, because cats are pretty

107
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: independent and with smaller like.

108
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: Flats and nanimals obsessed with.

109
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, cats have got their place in domestic life. But

110
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: dogs for me, and larger dogs too, I'm not My

111
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: favorites aren't the smaller breeds. The larger breeds. I've had

112
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: German Shepherds, dovemens, Labrador, border colliees now boxer boxer. Yeah,

113
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 2: so I go for the larger brouds. But they seem

114
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 2: to not live quite as long as the smaller breed,

115
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 2: so they break your heart more. I guess.

116
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: I know. Animals do break your heart a lot, don't

117
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: they they do?

118
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:13,679
Speaker 2: But my favorite animal I think of the wild cats,

119
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 2: it's the leopard. I did a South African safari and

120
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: you know, we saw some leopards and it was an

121
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 2: intriguing event. I'm not going to go through it because

122
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 2: I could talk about it for twenty minutes. But leopards

123
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: are my favorite cat over lines and cheetahs.

124
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: I like it. I love a jaguar.

125
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we've spoken horses.

126
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: I find I thought you were going to say horses.

127
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 2: I find horses regal and majestic and beautiful in motion,

128
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 2: not necessarily on a racetrack. They're beautiful in the paddock.

129
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 2: They're beautiful in a three D event. Your wild Wild BRUMBI.

130
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: I just love their movement and they like to run

131
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 2: so River. You would love that movie Snowy River and

132
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: far Up. I like, yes, like them both.

133
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: Okay, And don't they use horses for like equine therapy?

134
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: They do. They used a lot these days for kids

135
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: with autistic kids and kids with disabilities to help them

136
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: with confidence, and they develop a real feeling for these

137
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 2: animals and a little bit of a nice confidence and

138
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: rapport with them.

139
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: I watched a movie and I think it was based

140
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: on a true story, and it was a jail in

141
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: America that was using horses to help with inmates like

142
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: rehabilitation into society because it's a very wild animal that

143
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: they build that bond that you were talking about.

144
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: Sure, but a lot of pets are used for therapy

145
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 2: now really like dogs particularly.

146
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course, you know in one thing and I

147
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: love in La. Dogs are allowed everywhere. They have their

148
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: own seat at the table. At restaurants. You walk into

149
00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: a chemist, dogs everywhek like.

150
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: Oh, that's going to be an unusual experience.

Speaker 1: Oh yeah, dogs are their own they're allowed to fly

152
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,440

00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: I knew that. I knew that, but I didn't know

154
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 2: they were in restaurants.

155
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Yeah, it's its own currency because so much.

156
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: Because La is quite a hot climate like this, you're

157
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: outdoor eating a lot too, so you'll see people just

158
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of people will go to have a

159
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,600
