1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,280 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's. 2 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 2: When I hear Cupid and I hear Undies and I 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 2: hear running, I think of Richard Reid. 4 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: O course you do, because you know what for both 5 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,239 Speaker 1: of you. You know, I bring the low Oh I'm 6 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: the Verry white, except I'm white. 7 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 2: You're a white. 8 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what. I usually talk in a high register, 9 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: but today I'm going to talk like. That's right. 10 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 2: Nice to see. Tell us about the you and undies 11 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 2: and running and Cupid? What's going on? 12 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: You know what? I these days because you can see 13 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: these guns. I don't need much of an excuse to 14 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: strip down to my undies. And so when the people 15 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: at the Children's Tumor Foundation approached me and they say, 16 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: we have this Cupid's Undy Run, and I said what's that? 17 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: And they so every year they're major fundraiser, is this 18 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 1: Cupid's Undy Run where people strip down to their undies 19 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 1: and do a run kind of like a city to serve, 20 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: and all their friends sign up and they raise a 21 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: bunch of money. But this year, of course, it's different, 22 00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: so they're doing it virtually this year. 23 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: So you running your own lounge room in your undies. 24 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: Pretty much pretty much, it's all you know, social media 25 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: base this year, and so we'll give out a pair 26 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 1: of really cute undies, a T shirt, that kind of thing, 27 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,559 Speaker 1: and people will take selfies and throughout two weeks there's 28 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: these different challenges like you might go to an Australian 29 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: landmark posing your undies, put it on your socials, have 30 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: that type of thing, or you might have people around 31 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: for some Cupid's cocktails and charge them all twenty bucks. 32 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: We're really just trying to do it a little bit 33 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: differently this year because people really don't know about the 34 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: Children's Tumor Foundation because it's really one of those conditions 35 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: that's under the radar. But I will tell you this, 36 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: every three days a child is born with this condition 37 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: again I'm going to try to pronounce it neurofibromatosis, and 38 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: it is a condition that is genetic, so you just 39 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: don't know if you're going to have it or how 40 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: far back in your family this little condition is. And 41 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: a child can be born with maybe a brain tumor 42 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: tumors on their spine, or maybe a disfigurement, learning challenges, 43 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: that type of thing. So it's really one of those 44 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: things is under the radar and has yet to really 45 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: bubble up into the mainstream consciousness. It's a condition that's 46 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: there for life. And then when I heard the thing 47 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: about three every three days a child's born with it, 48 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: that just, you know, kind of broke my heart, which 49 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: is quite icy, so it's really your heart. How was that? 50 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: I felt like I just did a dramatic monologue, but 51 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: it was. 52 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 3: I always loved listening to you report stuff. And I 53 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 3: remember when you started off in your career. You were 54 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: just a normal reporter, weren't you, So you'd have to 55 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: go on.
