Speaker 1: Hello everyone like girls, Hello, boy, the.
Speaker 3: Only one here?
Speaker 2: Hello man, Hello man, boy, Britt law Britt Laura and
Speaker 2: boy everyone.
Speaker 4: Hey, I learned a very interesting fact today which I
Speaker 4: thought maybe other people might find interesting. Maybe not, but
Speaker 4: I'll get a shot.
Speaker 3: Mount Everest.
Speaker 4: We are all familiar with Mount Everest, the highest mountain
Speaker 4: in the world. Right, So the person who was the
Speaker 4: very first person to climb Mount Everest. You would think
Speaker 4: it was named after him, but actually his name was
Speaker 4: eve Rest. And we've actually just been saying the word wrong.
Speaker 4: That's actually that's incorrect. Mount ever Rest.
Speaker 5: I know that fact, and it's named after him. He
Speaker 5: didn't climb.
Speaker 4: It, didn't he Why did he discover it? So he
Speaker 4: never climbed it. Well, it's not even named after him.
Speaker 4: It's Everest, Laura's facts. Man, everybody know what Laura just
Speaker 4: said every days?
Speaker 2: Good.
Speaker 3: Wait, so then, what's the true story so I can
Speaker 3: tell people the real facts?
Speaker 1: Grace get in here on microphone. Oh God, what is
Speaker 1: the true fact?
Speaker 3: Grace told me? And then I wanted to tell you
Speaker 3: because I thought.
Speaker 2: Sir George Evris was the guy who was running a
Speaker 2: like a program where people measured mountains and this guy
Speaker 2: came to him and was like, you won't believe it.
Speaker 3: I found the highest mountain. He did all these mathematical things. Mathematical.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was after the manager of this team.
Speaker 3: But he got his name wrong. Yeah, I guess we've
Speaker 3: just changed it. But no, he wasn't the first. He
Speaker 3: never climbed it, Laura.
Speaker 4: Ever, he should change the name to the first guy
Speaker 4: whoever climbed it.
Speaker 1: Get in contact with the sherpers and let us know
Speaker 1: how that goes.
Speaker 4: I'm starting one of those what's those signing things? What's
Speaker 4: the Yeah, no, change dot org. That's it, that's signing thing.
Speaker 3: All right, let's move this conversation.
Speaker 2: You change dot org coming, Hey, you two, I will
Speaker 2: give you a fact, a real fact. October is breast
Speaker 2: cancer Awareness month.
Speaker 3: That's a lot more important than money.
Speaker 2: It is a lot and it's the pickup breast check Day.
Speaker 2: And we are speaking to Professor Sarah Lewis. She's a
Speaker 2: researcher from the National Breast Cancer Foundation. She does incredible
Speaker 2: work towards the vision of zero deaths from breast cancer.
Speaker 3: What a wonderful place that would be to be.
Speaker 2: But we're going to speak to her after the break
Speaker 2: about how to actually check your breast because it's easy
Speaker 2: to say, hey, guys, check your breast.
Speaker 3: What does that actually mean. We're going to find out
Speaker 3: after this.
Speaker 1: Hey today, we're doing it on the first of every month, ladies.
Speaker 1: It's the breast check day here at the pickup and
Speaker 1: we want to get.
Speaker 5: People to fill their boobs.
Speaker 1: Feel your boobies, have a little squeeze around, feel if
Speaker 1: anything's abnormal or feeling not right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, listen to this. Three thousand, three hundred Australians will
Speaker 3: die this year. Nine Australians die every day and fifty
Speaker 3: eight Australians are diagnosed every single day.
Speaker 2: Those stats are astronomical. We're lucky enough to be speaking
Speaker 2: to profess Us Sarah Lewis. Sarah is the Dean of
Speaker 2: Health Sciences at Western Sydney University. She's a career academic.
Speaker 2: She's doing some incredible research around breast cancer.
Speaker 3: Sarah, Welcome, Hi, Hi, good afternoon, guys. Hi Sarah.
Speaker 4: Look, I think there's so much information out there for
Speaker 4: people who know that we should check our breasts, like
Speaker 4: check your breast, check your breast in the first of
Speaker 4: the month, but what does that actually look like? And
Speaker 4: for someone who maybe has never done it before, Like,
Speaker 4: how would someone conduct a self examination and know what
Speaker 4: it is that they're feeling for?
Speaker 6: Look, I think chief that day of your month, understand
Speaker 6: that your breaths are going to change a little bit
Speaker 6: according to your hormonal cycle, and so chi's a time
Speaker 6: that's away from your period. And then just do a
Speaker 6: few simple steps, use the palms, the fingertips and work
Speaker 6: around in a sort of clockwise motion. Get a really
Speaker 6: good feel of what is your breast shaped side. There's
Speaker 6: lumps and bumps, a bit different.
Speaker 3: I reckon, everyone's in their car right now, I feel
Speaker 3: a boob. I hope they are men?
Speaker 6: Can do you do it in your car?
Speaker 3: Sure?
Speaker 6: Look at the person next to you. They're probably going
Speaker 6: around in a preformation to you. No, guy, A really good,
Speaker 6: a really good thing to do is to do it
Speaker 6: in the mirror, because, as you know, breaths are a
Speaker 6: mobile organ. They're on the outside of us. Actually looking
Speaker 6: at the way in which your breasts smooth the shape,
Speaker 6: looking for skin textural changes and things like that. Whilst
Speaker 6: doing yourself breast examination in the mirror, you're then you're
Speaker 6: ticking all those boxes.
Speaker 2: So, Sarah, how can you tell the difference between like
Speaker 2: a normal fatty lump or a gland or something that
Speaker 2: we all have, because like when you feel your boobs
Speaker 2: any day, you can feel like little lumps and bumps
Speaker 2: in there, But how do you tell the difference, So,
Speaker 2: for example, if you feel like a little pea or
Speaker 2: something a bit harder, Like, what are the actual characteristics
Speaker 2: we're looking for?
Speaker 6: Yeah, look, it's important to recognize that most breast cancers
Speaker 6: are actually you know there is start off really small
Speaker 6: and they're hard to feel, so you may not actually
Speaker 6: feel them. I think you're quite right. In particular younger women,
Speaker 6: there are lots of lumps and bumps there. What we're
Speaker 6: looking for is things that have changed, So a new lump,
Speaker 6: a thickening of the breast tissue in the case of
Speaker 6: my own breast cancer, a skin discoloration like a permanent
Speaker 6: bruise that won't go around a go away, or anything
Speaker 6: that actually sort of changes the shape and size of
Speaker 6: your breast that wasn't there before. That's when you need
Speaker 6: to be that sort of breast to wear and then
Speaker 6: go and see your health professional.
Speaker 4: Is it something that men need to be conscious of
Speaker 4: as well? Because I know that we usually talk about it.
Speaker 4: Women and women need to check their breast but should
Speaker 4: men be even wary of this?
Speaker 3: Is it something that men can can get?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Look, men have a really important role to play.
Speaker 6: A very small percentage of men that do you get
Speaker 6: breast cancer, so they can also check their breasts in
Speaker 6: a similar way to women understanding you know, obviously it's
Speaker 6: a much smaller area that they're going to be checking,
Speaker 6: but you know, changes in that general breast area. It's
Speaker 6: also important to check your arm pits and up to
Speaker 6: the collar bone as well, because you'll be looking for
Speaker 6: changes in those lymph notes that's where they live. And
Speaker 6: for men, actually, I would also say they have an
Speaker 6: important role to help with their partners and indeed noticing
Speaker 6: that perhaps your partner has a change in their breast appearance.
Speaker 6: You know, I know the tag line is have you
Speaker 6: felt yours lately? And I'm not suggesting that you necessarily
Speaker 6: go and feel someone else's do.
Speaker 1: It with.
Speaker 6: All eyes on where appropriate. Sometimes, you know, we need
Speaker 6: to look after each other.
Speaker 5: You're doing great work.
Speaker 1: The National Breast Cancer Foundation actually, since their inception in
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four, the Breast Cancer Right Ausralia has your.
Speaker 5: Amazing it's an amazing stuff.
Speaker 3: Too high though.
Speaker 4: I know you've got a conversation that can actually change
Speaker 4: and save people's lives.
Speaker 5: Of course.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and October is actually National Breast Cancer a Witness Month,
Speaker 1: so're starting today, Professor Sarah Lewis, thank you for joining
Speaker 1: us on the show.
Speaker 6: Thank you, great breast help.
Speaker 3: Guys, boobies, guys.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 1: Next on the show, Oh my god, the wedding that
Speaker 1: everyone is talking about, Lana del Ray was married with
Speaker 1: all her closest alligators over the weekend. She was married
Speaker 1: in a swamp to her her new husband that she
Speaker 1: met less than a month ago.
Speaker 4: Dreams glamour like getting married in swamp plans. Yeah, No,
Speaker 4: it's swampy marshlands, surrounded by alligators.
Speaker 5: Totally. It's an interesting wedding. We've got the deats. Next, Denbo. Hey,
Speaker 5: you guys know Lana del Ray, Brittain, Laura, she's.
Speaker 4: Absolutely this is a story I am so invested in.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's a bizarre story. Ready, Lana focusing on
Speaker 5: her music career for.
Speaker 1: The last few decades superstar. Oh she's incredible and she's
Speaker 1: arguably thee of her career. She did headline Coachella a
Speaker 1: few months ago. She's everywhere. She was nominated for an Album
Speaker 1: of the Year at the Grammys. Lana is huge now
Speaker 1: after a month of dating. This weekend, Lana del Ray
Speaker 1: married alligator to a guide, Jeremy de Frene. According to
Speaker 1: People magazine, it was a small outdoor ceremony in Louisiana
Speaker 1: in the Bayu where Dunfrein works as an alligator.
Speaker 2: To a guide, So they were alligators at the wedding,
Speaker 2: some regator.
Speaker 4: But I like because I remember when this article or
Speaker 4: the like story first hit the headlines and everyone was
Speaker 4: kind of like trying to figure out whether they were
Speaker 4: or weren't dating, whether it was real, because it sounds
Speaker 4: like fake news. Lana del Ray marrying an alligator like
Speaker 4: tour guide, it sounds like it can't be real. But
Speaker 4: apparently they met in twenty nineteen, so that's when they
Speaker 4: first met. But they've only been publicly dating for one
Speaker 4: month and then they tied the knot in swamp Marshland.
Speaker 3: I wrecked out of alligators.
Speaker 2: She must have had a solid prenup, right, like, if
Speaker 2: you're I don't think alligator tour guides are on par
Speaker 2: with London Ray, like album of the year.
Speaker 3: That's quick. If you've I know, you've known each other
Speaker 3: since twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2: Maybe there was a lot of stuff going on behind
Speaker 2: the scenes for the last couple of years and people
Speaker 2: just didn't.
Speaker 3: Know about it.
Speaker 2: But if you're married after a month and you are
Speaker 2: as loaded as Lenda Delray, I'd be hoping that's a prina.
Speaker 1: I'm also a big Lana fan, and this is very
Speaker 1: Lana Delray, Like all her music is about old Hollywood men.
Speaker 1: She wants a traditional strong.
Speaker 3: Man alligator nom Lanado.
Speaker 4: I disagree. You're kind of like saying that this was relatable.
Speaker 4: We're talking about this earlier and Mitch is like it's
Speaker 4: so relatable, Like she's like the relatable one of the people.
Speaker 4: There is nothing relatable about marrying an alligator tour guy.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, I don't think the wedding itself is
Speaker 5: really normal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but her whole vibe is that she's a celebrity,
Speaker 1: but she's like goes through the normal emotions that we
Speaker 1: all go through.
Speaker 4: I don't know, everyone's been saying it's not going to
Speaker 4: work out because it's such a well first yeah, it's
Speaker 4: such a like shotgun wedding, but also because they're obviously
Speaker 4: from such two different worlds. He was married, well, no,
Speaker 4: so he was engaged before. So he had a fiance.
Speaker 4: Her name was Kelly, and Kelly, well she's been coming
Speaker 4: out and talking all over the tabloids. Yeah, so she
Speaker 4: was engaged for twelve years to this guy and then
Speaker 4: he's gone on to marry Lana Delray after being engaged
Speaker 4: for only one month.
Speaker 3: But of course you're going to one month, want Delray.
Speaker 3: You're gonna speed that, lock it down before she changes
Speaker 3: the mind.
Speaker 1: Want some facts about the wedding picture this mosquitoes. The
Speaker 1: wedding took place under a white tent in swamp plant
Speaker 1: in Louisiana.
Speaker 4: Swamp land. That's that's nothing. Screams romance like swamps.
Speaker 5: They had the fan boats surrounding the sort of archers
Speaker 5: at the end.
Speaker 3: That's a fan.
Speaker 5: That's how you get around on the bike.
Speaker 3: With the fan that pushes. Sorry, I thought you meant
Speaker 3: it was just a boat full of fans.
Speaker 1: No, and apparently no, no, no photos have emerged. But
Speaker 1: apparently the fans were on and they were blowing her veil.
Speaker 3: I've seen the photos.
Speaker 5: We have the photo that's a pixel.
Speaker 2: It actually looks so I'm not. I don't want to
Speaker 2: yuck anyone's yarng. It looks so unromantic. But she's walking
Speaker 2: down a swamp. If she's happy, I'm happy.
Speaker 3: We do love Lana.
Speaker 4: But also I don't think it's necessarily the beginning of
Speaker 4: the end, just because it seems a little bit like
Speaker 4: a shotgun wedding.
Speaker 3: And I want to hear the happy stories.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 3: I once worked with the woman who she got engaged
Speaker 3: after dating her partner boyfriend whatever, they met online.
Speaker 4: They were dating for seven days, they went and got married,
Speaker 4: and they've been to fourteen years now.
Speaker 3: Fourteen years.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think there's a textbook for any of this stuff.
Speaker 5: I think your lovers love.
Speaker 2: I think if you feel it, to go forth with
Speaker 2: a printup, yeah, or it will.
Speaker 5: Take your calls. Did it work? How long? What's the
Speaker 5: shortest engagement?
Speaker 3: We can find the shortest one fast, But do we
Speaker 3: want it to be successful? We don't care.
Speaker 4: O gay, he could be unhappily married after seven days
Speaker 4: of dating.
Speaker 3: We want to hear about it.
Speaker 5: That's not the question.
Speaker 1: Happiness we don't care about Here at the pickup, we
Speaker 1: want dates and numbers, calls Here at the show, but
Speaker 1: taking new calls because Lana del Ray was married over
Speaker 1: the weekend to her alligating alligator hunting husband.
Speaker 5: Are they hunter to a guy? He runs too? Guys?
Speaker 3: Yes, he got to text the gators.
Speaker 4: Look, lots of people have been coming out and saying
Speaker 4: that they don't think that the relationship is going to
Speaker 4: work because it feels like a shotgun marriage. We only
Speaker 4: found now the month ago that they were dating. But
Speaker 4: look now they're married, and we here at the pickup
Speaker 4: think that this is a beautiful coming together of two
Speaker 4: very different people.
Speaker 3: That's going to be a relationship filled with love.
Speaker 5: I think it's going to last, and I'm here for it.
Speaker 4: Okay, So what we wanted is we just wanted to
Speaker 4: know if you've been dating your partner for a very
Speaker 4: short period of time and then you rushed to the altar,
Speaker 4: what happens? Yeah, I start together, you get a good idea.
Speaker 4: We want to give her a bit of a just
Speaker 4: you know, a bit of confidence.
Speaker 5: Emily's joining us.
Speaker 1: Emily, firstly, before you tell us if you're still together,
Speaker 1: how long did you know each other before marriage?
Speaker 8: We knew each other for three months before we got married.
Speaker 3: Three months.
Speaker 4: Okay, how long before you got engaged or were you
Speaker 4: just kind of like, oh, we're here, let's get married.
Speaker 3: It all happen that quickly.
Speaker 8: No, we got let's see, we've met each other, and
Speaker 8: then three months later married. So it was about like
Speaker 8: two months after we got engaged and then got married.
Speaker 3: Wow, how long have you been together for? Now?
Speaker 8: If they are all right, we've been together twenty four years?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I got a word.
Speaker 4: Yeah the magic Wait, really important question.
Speaker 3: Are you happy?
Speaker 8: I am? I'm still okay.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 8: I don't recommend it to everyone, but it worked out
Speaker 8: for us.
Speaker 1: Okay, good, happy for your Emily. We're getting a lot
Speaker 1: of calls girls, Tracy, Hey, talk to us. How long
Speaker 1: did it take to get engaged?
Speaker 5: And I still together?

Speaker 9: I have adult children at like twenty seven and twenty nine,
Speaker 9: if they said that at twenty one, I'd be like, what.
Speaker 3: The hell, Tracy.
Speaker 4: This is why I asked because when people say you know,
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, obviously I'm happily married now I
Speaker 4: have a wonderful husband. But I thought I knew when
Speaker 4: I was in my twenties, and I would have married
Speaker 4: someone who was terrible for me.
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, well the ridiculous part is, and I
Speaker 9: don't know, this probably makes me sound lanme, but this
Speaker 9: was my first proper boyfriend.
Speaker 2: Oh it's beautiful. It doesn't make you also a different
Speaker 2: time like.

Speaker 7: cousin got engaged after a forty eight hour first date.
Speaker 3: Oh and my, so it's genetic.
Speaker 4: How many of these were happy relationships all three.
