Speaker 1: Laura come on.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, hello Laura bad Happy Tuesday, everybody.
Speaker 3: Hello me?
Speaker 4: Do you know I feel gas lip by britt? I do?
Speaker 4: I feel like we've been Who's brit britt Bred? Who
Speaker 4: Brittany she is?
Speaker 5: Actually, if you look at our artwork, there is a
Speaker 5: third person that hosted this show, Brittany Hockley. She came
Speaker 5: back yesterday, she told us all about the jungle and
Speaker 5: now she's gone again to go on safari for a
Speaker 5: few days.
Speaker 2: She goes, I'm you're out of the show. You're going
Speaker 2: to come back on radio. Now I'm going on Safari.
Speaker 2: I'm going to go find ivory, tusks and elephants.
Speaker 4: I don't think people do that anymore.
Speaker 6: If she wanted to do that, she shouldn't do it.
Speaker 4: I'm glad that you put that.
Speaker 5: I know she's gone on Safari with her mum and
Speaker 5: she's having a few days are and r having some
Speaker 5: mental health time, which I can completely understand after coming
Speaker 5: out of the ordeal that she just did in the jungle.
Speaker 2: Okay, can I be honest with you, Laura and level
Speaker 2: with you here? So we had access to Britney's socials
Speaker 2: to run them for the length of her period and
Speaker 2: her stint on I'm a celeb and I the moment
Speaker 2: she got eliminated, I cannot tell you how quickly I
Speaker 2: logged myself out of Britney's Instagram.
Speaker 5: It's nobody who It's a very rare thing right to
Speaker 5: be given access to the back end of somebody else's Instagram,
Speaker 5: especially someone who like Brittany, has a lot of messages.
Speaker 4: Coming in, also has multiple accounts that we discovered.
Speaker 6: She's burner accounts.
Speaker 2: So I didn't really but you want to look out
Speaker 2: of Brittany Hock, I'm like, yes, what about Sam twelve.
Speaker 4: Like the House?
Speaker 5: And I was like, what is using these burner accounts for?
Speaker 5: So I can't wait for her to be back in
Speaker 5: the studio because I think there needs to be a
Speaker 5: little bit more of a deep dive into Britney's social
Speaker 5: media pay Yeah, I completely agree. I think she just
Speaker 5: uses them, maybe to like her own posts.
Speaker 2: I think so I was getting notifications on Britney's fine,
Speaker 2: it would be like Bondai sans ay you just posted
Speaker 2: a reel and it was Britney Hockey's acount.
Speaker 5: I'm like, shut, I don't care, I know, I know,
Speaker 5: did you Okay, I have a question for you. Did
Speaker 5: you go back through any of her messages or did
Speaker 5: you stay above board and behave.
Speaker 6: I did go to her message, fed with you and
Speaker 6: then search my name to.
Speaker 5: You ate you wanted to see we were bitching about you.
Speaker 5: We don't bitch about you on Instagram message. Ok it's stupid,

Speaker 4: Other Sarcasm is not needed, do you know what? It's
Speaker 4: not needed?
Speaker 2: Just laughing's having bands to other shows, have rumors that
Speaker 2: they're all dating other shows at this time slot.
Speaker 6: Everyone's going are they dating? Are they together?
Speaker 4: So you and I are the same. Now we're going
Speaker 4: to compete because that's how you get ratings.
Speaker 6: Totally, you heard it here first. Totally. Don't google my
Speaker 6: dating history because they all have one thing in common.
Speaker 6: They're not women.
Speaker 5: All right, Well, look, speaking of dating history, I want
Speaker 5: to talk to you about something so Taylor Swift, you
Speaker 5: all would be across this. She just released her new albums.
Speaker 5: Everyone's talking about it. It's a tortured poets department.
Speaker 6: Yes, No, the.
Speaker 4: Tortured poets departments. Okay.
Speaker 5: So there's lots of Easter eggs that are in Taylor
Speaker 5: Swift songs.
Speaker 4: It's what she's known for.
Speaker 5: She's known for her storytelling, she's known for her relatability.
Speaker 5: But there's one song on this new album and which
Speaker 5: have you heard it all yet?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 4: Have you listened through the album?
Speaker 6: No? No, I did listen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did when it dropped, and I across the
Speaker 2: Kim Kardashian slant of the hidden Kim Kardashian meanings.
Speaker 6: Is this what you're talking about?
Speaker 4: No, this is something a little bit more subtle.
Speaker 5: But I think we should be talking about it because
Speaker 5: I don't know whether it's problematic or not.
Speaker 4: But I would love to know how you feel about it. Okay.
Speaker 4: So there's this song called the Black Dog.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Now, this song is about Joe Olwen or Allen and
Speaker 5: when they broke up, and these are the lyrics. I
Speaker 5: am someone who until recent events, you shared your secrets
Speaker 5: with and your location.
Speaker 4: You forgot to turn it off.
Speaker 5: And so I watch as you walk into some bar
Speaker 5: called the Black Dog and Pierce new holes in my heart.
Speaker 5: You forgot to turn it off, and it hits me.
Speaker 6: He's the actual song.
Speaker 3: Someone who until we events you shirt your secrets with
Speaker 3: your location, you forgot to turn it. So I watched
Speaker 3: as You walk and Somber called the black Dog pierce
Speaker 3: new holes and my you forgot to.
Speaker 5: Turn Okay, So what she's talking about here is she's
Speaker 5: talking about his actual location services on his phone. So
Speaker 5: she has Find my Friends and they've broken up, they've
Speaker 5: gone through the breakup and well, I don't know who
Speaker 5: knows when she wrote this song, but she's still checking
Speaker 5: where he is and what he's doing, but his Find
Speaker 5: my Friends.
Speaker 4: I just think this is so weird.
Speaker 6: It's very rare.
Speaker 4: It's so weird to sing about it.
Speaker 6: No, yeah, I think you're right, but get that stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 6: but look at us.
Speaker 2: We work in a creative industry. We talk about our
Speaker 2: lives on the radio on our show because we have to.
Speaker 2: She's just doing what she has to do to pay
Speaker 2: the bills.
Speaker 5: Mitch, I can guarantee you that if I went through
Speaker 5: a divorce with my husband and I was still checking
Speaker 5: his location, I would not be talking about.
Speaker 6: That on radio.
Speaker 4: Really, that is embarrassing.
Speaker 6: Now I talk about it. See when was my last breakup?
Speaker 6: My break was about it.
Speaker 2: Sorry, you helped me through my last breakup.
Speaker 4: Okay, I know a Now we're at a point where
Speaker 4: we can laugh about it.
Speaker 2: It's actually a year tomorrow, so it's not like I'm
Speaker 2: thinking about it. Yeah, do you still have him on
Speaker 2: your find my friends? I deleted him on fire my friends.
Speaker 2: Actually I never had it in the first place, which
Speaker 2: probably was big red flag as to what went down
Speaker 2: in that relationship. But I did you know what gut
Speaker 2: a punch when I got the notification. So and so
Speaker 2: has stopped sharing his health with you. So me and
Speaker 2: my ex shared our health with each other, so he's
Speaker 2: too much here. We both had Apple watches, so I
Speaker 2: got all his calories burned, I got his resting heart rate.
Speaker 2: I knew his breaths per minute, such intimate details about someone,
Speaker 2: and he pulled me from that. He also pulled me
Speaker 2: from his emergency contact list.
Speaker 4: Oh that's rough. How did you know though?
Speaker 5: Did you get a notification from New South Wales's health accident?
Speaker 2: Accidentally called me then and we hadn't spoken, And then
Speaker 2: he's like, sorry, I was just removing you from my
Speaker 2: emergency because when you tap it, you tap it calls
Speaker 2: them straight away because it thinks you've been hit by
Speaker 2: a car. But he thought he was going to be
Speaker 2: able to tap and delete. So that was what went
Speaker 2: down that one.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I'm sorry I had to go through that.
Speaker 6: That's right, different song about.
Speaker 4: It, Thank you, mom.
Speaker 5: Man going back to Taylor Swift and not talking about
Speaker 5: you for one second.
Speaker 4: Reach I think you asked me you such a cow?
Speaker 6: You asked me that question, just ask you.
Speaker 4: Then you kept going and going. Is this a two
Speaker 4: piece album?
Speaker 2: I can't want to hear about your Maddy j gen
Speaker 2: X couple. Do you even know how to use fine Mine? No?
Speaker 5: I just there's no point, Like I don't think I
Speaker 5: only ever wanted to use Find my Friends with an
Speaker 5: ex boyfriend who I didn't trust, And there was a
Speaker 5: reason why I wanted to know where he was because
Speaker 5: he never was where he said.
Speaker 4: He was going to be.
Speaker 5: But there's no part of me that would want to
Speaker 5: know or even like have Find my Friends on for
Speaker 5: my husband. I don't think that when we don't have
Speaker 5: a relationship where I need to know that stuff about him. Yes, yes,
Speaker 5: I do understand why some people do it from like
Speaker 5: a safety aspect. I think that, you know, if you're
Speaker 5: someone who works shift work, or you're getting public transport
Speaker 5: in the middle of the night, whatever it is, there
Speaker 5: are some reasons.
Speaker 4: But I think it's weird. I know Taylor.
Speaker 5: Swift sing songs that are meant to be about storytelling
Speaker 5: and her life, but that is an inside thought.
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't share that with the world.
Speaker 6: Keep that to yourself. No, I agree with you. My God.
Speaker 2: A couple of weeks ago, actually last week on the show,
Speaker 2: we had my dad on the air. You called him,
Speaker 2: Laura because I'm living at home. I've got a partner,
Speaker 2: We're in a new relationship, so we're enjoying each other's company.
Speaker 2: My parents clearly could hear the enjoyment of said company
Speaker 2: via the BedHead. So they went in and they moved
Speaker 2: the bed six inches.
Speaker 6: From the wall.
Speaker 4: Yes, but it turns out that that wasn't even the case.
Speaker 5: You were so begrudging about your dad being called, and
Speaker 5: it had nothing to do with the acoustics.
Speaker 4: It's because you wanted your dad to make the bed.
Speaker 6: You asked Dad, this is what he had to say.
Speaker 1: My wife says to me, Mitchell wants clean sheets, and
Speaker 1: I said, look, darling, you look tired. I'll come down
Speaker 1: and help you. So we actually went down and made
Speaker 1: his bed for him. However, I'm very conscious that there
Speaker 1: is a rumor going around Cronalla that that BedHead was
Speaker 1: working over time.
Speaker 2: But here's the thing, right, Yes, my embarrassment is your
Speaker 2: enjoyment and everyone.
Speaker 5: I have been reveling in this also because it's it's
Speaker 5: so so, so so unfortunate for you. Because nobody wants
Speaker 5: their parents to know or hear that they get down
Speaker 5: to hanky panky town.
Speaker 4: Yours have to listen to it.
Speaker 2: No, But you know, in the same way that Taylor
Speaker 2: Swift has the tor Tortured Poets Department, I feel like
Speaker 2: I have the banging BedHead Society. Thank you. I thought
Speaker 2: of that in my spare time. Yeah, of course, banging
Speaker 2: BedHead broom closet. I wanted another be but it was
Speaker 2: very hard.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I have had so many messages of people going, oh
Speaker 2: my god, the same thing happened to me.
Speaker 6: I live at home. I caught this.
Speaker 5: I caught this with their parents, and so they're all
Speaker 5: it's like into families.
Speaker 6: Was some mixture.
Speaker 2: I had some woman message me and say, hey, Oh
Speaker 2: my god, it's the highlight of my day hearing my kids.
Speaker 6: It reminds me when I was young.
Speaker 4: What, no, she needs therapy.
Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm joining us on the line. Erin had one
Speaker 2: of the best stories. Erin, Now, would you say I
Speaker 2: created a safe space for you to have this conversation?
Speaker 3: Erin?
Speaker 7: Absolutely, I was like listening to your story. I was
Speaker 7: sitting there thinking to myself, Oh my gosh, I feel
Speaker 7: this story, but from the other end, and I was like,
Speaker 7: I need to tell me because this is like too coincidental.
Speaker 5: Wait, so, Aaron, you have kids yourself or was this you? Like,
Speaker 5: how did this all on?
Speaker 7: Tell the Sorry, I do have children, but this was
Speaker 7: my parents. So back when I was like fourteen fifteen innocent,
Speaker 7: I was living at home obviously with my parents, and
Speaker 7: to like give a bit of an idea, my parents
Speaker 7: next to their bed had like these big side tables
Speaker 7: and in them they kept like their unnies and socks
Speaker 7: and whatnot. And I used to go in there and
Speaker 7: like look behind BedHead, and I was like, that's so weird.
Speaker 7: My poor dad, he's so silly, always losing his socks
Speaker 7: behind his bed head. So forward, like another fourteen years
Speaker 7: and were finally moving out of that home. I'm pregnant
Speaker 7: at this point, and IM goes, hey, Hanky, can you
Speaker 7: help me pull this bed head just a bit forward
Speaker 7: so the rappers, sorry, the movers can wrap it up
Speaker 7: for me. So I go, yeah, sure, no problems. I'm
Speaker 7: just holding it forward and outfall all of these socks.
Speaker 7: And it wasn't until that point that I was like,
Speaker 7: oh my gosh, the socks were not there because you
Speaker 7: lost them. They were there to like stop the BedHead
Speaker 7: from hitting against the wall.
Speaker 4: It was insulation.
Speaker 7: Oh my gosh. As kids, we never heard my parents
Speaker 7: like sanging against the wall anything.
Speaker 4: And it was seventeen Yeah, don't know, more.
Speaker 7: For acoustic reasons than anything.
Speaker 5: Don't we just don't you just move move the pieces
Speaker 5: of furniture like ten centimeters away from the bed head.
Speaker 4: Why is it? Why are we all but against I know, because.
Speaker 6: Think about it. You're in the throes of passion.
Speaker 2: You want to quick fix, you know, you don't want
Speaker 2: to get up and get allen key out and move
Speaker 2: your bed frame.
Speaker 6: No one has time for that.
Speaker 4: That's true.
Speaker 2: You are you gonna will you tell the story that
Speaker 2: Please tell the story that you told me in the songs,
Speaker 2: Laura said.
Speaker 4: No, I'm never telling no, please tell the story.
Speaker 6: No erin Laura told a story in the song.
Speaker 4: I'm still getting therapy for that. That's not that was
Speaker 4: no Laura.
Speaker 2: Laura had the same similar experience with her mum. I've
Speaker 2: already said it, just say tell the story. My okay, no, no,
Speaker 2: my innocent, not name and Shane.
Speaker 6: But you walked in on your mom.
Speaker 4: My mom? Who mom? If you're listening, Kim, I'm very
Speaker 4: sorry for this.
Speaker 5: I love you. I love you so much. We're a
Speaker 5: very close household. And my parents got divorced when I
Speaker 5: was really young and my mom was dating and I
Speaker 5: it was not an acoustic problem. If anything, I wish
Speaker 5: there was more acoustics and I would have heard that
Speaker 5: something was going on in the bedroom.
Speaker 6: How old were you?
Speaker 4: I was about seven and I'd had a bad dream.
Speaker 5: Oh, and I got up and I was like, mom,
Speaker 5: I'll go and get my mom to give me some comfort.
Speaker 4: But she was giving her.
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, okay.
Speaker 5: Right, and I walked in on my mom in bed,
Speaker 5: and it was horrible. I don't even know if she
Speaker 5: would still remember. I don't know if she would still
Speaker 5: remember it, but I remember everything.
Speaker 4: I remember the position. I remember everything, and it was
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 6: Remember when you called my dad last week on the show?
Speaker 4: You dare call my mom? Don't you dare?
Speaker 5: She would she would honestly drop dead from humiliation. I'm
Speaker 5: just hoping she's at work right now.
Speaker 6: I don't have Kim's number.
Speaker 4: Yeah, thank god. All right, anyway, we'll think.
Speaker 2: God, we have a daily show, so tomorrow's it's going
Speaker 2: to be a good show Tomorrow Australia. All right, Banging
Speaker 2: BedHead Society, keep the messages coming in.
Speaker 6: This is safe space to discuss what goes on.
Speaker 5: I would like to know as a parent myself, I
Speaker 5: want to know, like have you walked in on your
Speaker 5: kids or have they walked in on you? I think
Speaker 5: there's going to be hilarious stories out there.
Speaker 2: Listen at Season eighteen of one of my favorite shows
Speaker 2: in Australia's favorite shows premiered last night on Channel ten
Speaker 2: MASTERSHEF Australia is back and this show Laura got me
Speaker 2: into food tech, home economics, Like when it came out,
Speaker 2: I was in high school and it turned me into
Speaker 2: a little baker boy, Like I'll have to bake a
Speaker 2: Victoria sponge because of it.
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm really holding it against you because I don't
Speaker 5: think I've ever known you to cook anything except toast.
Speaker 4: I'm a baker, you're not.
Speaker 2: I'm a bad I did home economic, Miss Mooreman, if
Speaker 2: you're listening, I know how to make a Victoria sponge
Speaker 2: Wow and cream.
Speaker 4: Bring one into the studio one day. I would love that.
Speaker 6: I just might.
Speaker 2: And you know why, It's a shame that this interview
Speaker 2: was over the phone, because I could have presented it
Speaker 2: to one of the judges himself. This guy is a
Speaker 2: winner of YEV He's very own season and he is back,
Speaker 2: obviously last night, alongside three brand new judges. It's a
Speaker 2: very exciting season. Andy Allen joins us. Hello, Buddy, Hi, Andy, Hi,
Speaker 2: Hey go. I was so okay, but I would love
Speaker 2: to know after last night.
Speaker 5: I mean, the big surprise Jamie Oliver working alongside here
Speaker 5: when you were on the show yourself.
Speaker 4: Wasn't he a guest judge at the time?
Speaker 8: He was? Yeah, season four, he came out the very
Speaker 8: first time. Wow, and I unfortunately I met him briefly.
Speaker 8: Fast forward ten years and I'm actually, really I'm pretty
Speaker 8: tough to say that we're pretty good mad Jamie and I.
Speaker 8: He's been so supportive over the years, and especially with
Speaker 8: Jock's passing last year, he was like he was like
Speaker 8: an older brother to me. So I really appreciate it.
Speaker 8: He's such a good dude.
Speaker 4: Andy.
Speaker 5: What was it like getting back into like back into
Speaker 5: the studio, back into filming. I can only imagine with
Speaker 5: everything that happened last year with Jock that there must
Speaker 5: have been either some hesitation or some feelings around like,
Speaker 5: how are.
Speaker 4: We going to do this without him?
Speaker 6: We're even coming back?
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 8: For me, I I was unsture. Like I was. I
Speaker 8: didn't mean I'll be able to do it like you know,
Speaker 8: Jock and I. It was up in that in that role.
Speaker 8: We loved it so much. We loved being able to
Speaker 8: mentor contestants and bring the best out of them, and
Speaker 8: it just didn't feel right to do it without him.
Speaker 8: But I'm really proud that I gained the courage to
Speaker 8: be able to do it because that's what Jock would
Speaker 8: have wanted. And you know, looking looking forward now to
Speaker 8: what I've been able to achieve with Poe, Sophia, Jean Christophe, Jamie,
Speaker 8: the rest of the crew, we're all so proud of
Speaker 8: what we've done because we did want to continue that
Speaker 8: legacy that Jock left for us to run on with it,
Speaker 8: and we have. It's such a brilliant season. I'm really
Speaker 8: proud of it.
Speaker 2: But at the core of the show, and I think
Speaker 2: it speaks to what you were saying about coming back
Speaker 2: and doing it in memory of John, that the show
Speaker 2: actually has a real life impact and eighteen seasons on,
Speaker 2: I'm sure that's something that you guys are still very
Speaker 2: conscious of.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, only right, Like it's just positive energy in there,
Speaker 8: you know, Like we try and build people up to
Speaker 8: be the best that they possibly can because that's what
Speaker 8: it's all about. Like I mentioned being a mentor, that's
Speaker 8: really what we are. For the five months of filming.
Speaker 8: We are literally trying to get the best out of
Speaker 8: each and every contestant so that they can go out
Speaker 8: into the hospitality industry in some way, shape or form.
Speaker 8: And there are so many brilliant stories, you know. I mean,
Speaker 8: you look at myself, like being a Sparky from Newcastle
Speaker 8: going on the show somehow winning and now being in
Speaker 8: the position that I am. It really does like it's
Speaker 8: totally okay, but it really does it can make your
Speaker 8: dreams come true. And to be honest, I didn't have
Speaker 8: any dreams and look what turned out. It's been such
Speaker 8: a wild ride.
Speaker 5: I have one question around, like technically, how you actually
Speaker 5: are able to judge on the show. So when it
Speaker 5: comes to all of you sitting down and taking a
Speaker 5: bite of the meal that someone's put forward for you,
Speaker 5: the meal is cold, right, Like, it's takes so long
Speaker 5: with all the filming processes that surely by the time
Speaker 5: it gets in front of you is as cold as
Speaker 5: cold can.
Speaker 8: Be, stone cold, stone cold.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's good.
Speaker 8: Basically what happens is, which you don't see on air,
Speaker 8: is we are kind of ferreting around the whole court
Speaker 8: tasting everything as it's being prepared, and then once the
Speaker 8: clock finishes, we get the contestants to kind of have
Speaker 8: all of their beautifully plated up food on this little
Speaker 8: red mat, and then next door to it, we actually
Speaker 8: have all of the get them to have all of
Speaker 8: the components. It doesn't asterally beautifully played or anything like that,
Speaker 8: but that's when we go around and do the hot tasting,
Speaker 8: so we get a really good idea of what's going
Speaker 8: to be good. What's going to be this shit and
Speaker 8: anything in between. So like then we all break for lunch,
Speaker 8: everything goes in the fridge. We come back and we
Speaker 8: do the cold tasting and there is still things that
Speaker 8: you do critique when when the dish is cold. Like
Speaker 8: I said, presentation is a big thing. So yeah, that's
Speaker 8: kind of how we get to the end goal of
Speaker 8: seeing who's got the best iss.
Speaker 4: So you already know that. The trickery that goes on
Speaker 4: totally the end TV magic.
Speaker 6: But I love that. And he just said, we break
Speaker 6: for lunch, then we come back and we eat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we eat it. I wonder if that bunny, we.
Speaker 8: Have twenty two dishes after lunch. There's the reason I
Speaker 8: put on six kilos. Not this year because I learned
Speaker 8: my lesson, but the last year I put on six kilos,
Speaker 8: So I'd say much exercising my offod.
Speaker 2: Well, but we can't wait to watch Season eighteen of
Speaker 2: Mastershire premier last night seven thirty on Channel ten and ten.
Speaker 2: Play continues tonight two hundred and fifty grand as well.
Speaker 2: Up for Grabs is a very very big season. The
Speaker 2: brand new judges are on. Andy Allen, great to have
Speaker 2: you on.
Speaker 6: Buddy, Sandy appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Thanks all right, everyone stand by, we're back after this.
Speaker 2: On the pickup, I have a question for you.
Speaker 5: Do you think it is okay to like bags a park?
Speaker 6: Do you know I like to put bags apart?
Speaker 4: What's what's the word I'm looking for?
Speaker 6: Like, you're forty nine?
Speaker 4: What do you mean bags are part forty nine?
Speaker 2: Bags?
Speaker 4: Doud No? Do you do to like?
Speaker 6: What's the just reserve?
Speaker 5: Yes, that's the word I'm looking for. Sorry, do you
Speaker 5: think it's okay to reserve a park?
Speaker 2: So? Just paint a picture? You see a spot, you
Speaker 2: want it someone, so you get someone to stand in it.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Look, there's many ways that you could cut this mustard,
Speaker 5: but you know, I think that the typical one.
Speaker 6: Is again forty nine, you're not open.
Speaker 4: Here, okay.
Speaker 5: The typical one is that you're driving through like a
Speaker 5: westfield or a car park or somewhere, and then there's
Speaker 5: some random dude standing in the middle of a car
Speaker 5: park stopping you from taking it because their mum or
Speaker 5: their girlfriend has to go and do a lap around. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 5: what are your thoughts on reserving car parks?
Speaker 6: No, you can't reserve a cust So what do.
Speaker 5: You do if somebody is reserving one and then you're
Speaker 5: in that situation, Oh that's tricky.
Speaker 2: You say, hey, you're indicating and you drive in, you
Speaker 2: start to edge in, so you start to run over them. No, God,
Speaker 2: i'd be very carefully because this is a.
Speaker 5: Public Do you wind your window down and yell at
Speaker 5: them like I wind window?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 2: One winds windows again, So sorry, Laura, but someone's not
Speaker 2: going on with you. Just can we clarify as this
Speaker 2: a petrol engine or is this horse and carriage?
Speaker 4: No, it's Look, it could even be an electric car.
Speaker 4: Who knows good.
Speaker 2: I would say, I'd indicate on politely and go, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm going to take this and go no, you can't
Speaker 2: do that.
Speaker 6: Come on, and I'd etch in.
Speaker 4: So you're gonna etch in while someone's standing in a
Speaker 4: car park.
Speaker 2: That's not the unpopular opinion. I think yes, you'd etch
Speaker 2: in and slowly bump them out of the way.
Speaker 5: So well, I mean, look, I don't think that you
Speaker 5: can reserve car park. So I'm glad that we're at
Speaker 5: least on the same page with this. But people do it,
Speaker 5: especially around where I live, and on a weekend it
Speaker 5: is very busy, and if you live in the area.
Speaker 5: What some people do is they get their bins and
Speaker 5: they're gonna put their bins on the street, or they
Speaker 5: do things to try and they claim as much car
Speaker 5: parking space as they cared, especially on a Friday afternoon.
Speaker 5: So I was driving home it was Friday last week,
Speaker 5: and I get to like there was a person who
Speaker 5: was pulling out of the car park and I was like, cool,
Speaker 5: put my little blinker on. I'm going to pull in
Speaker 5: outside your own house. Well, it's like on my street,
Speaker 5: it's not outside my house.
Speaker 6: Was your street's hard to park in.
Speaker 5: It's terrible, and especially on a weekend. If you get
Speaker 5: a street park like that is golden, you don't go anywhere.
Speaker 5: So put my indicator on, I go to park and
Speaker 5: then I see that the woman who's driving it as
Speaker 5: her son actually just standing on the side of the
Speaker 5: road and so he stands in the middle of the
Speaker 5: car park as she's pulling out, and he goes and
Speaker 5: gets to bollards Like I'm talking like red big bollards
Speaker 5: that you might put there chairs being like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: but like even bigger, you know the ones we had
Speaker 5: the flat base and then the pole.
Speaker 4: So there's two of them. On the side. Well, I
Speaker 4: don't know where they got them from.
Speaker 5: Maybe someone was doing renovations, maybe there were some roadworks.
Speaker 5: That he goes and gets these bollards and he puts
Speaker 5: them in right in the car park, doesn't make eye contact,
Speaker 5: and I like, do a little beep.
Speaker 4: I was like, is this a joke? Anyway?
Speaker 5: He just gets in the car, drives away. Car park
Speaker 5: is empty with two ballards just in the middle of
Speaker 5: the thing.
Speaker 6: He moved the ballots.
Speaker 5: Well, I couldn't because there's a lot of traffic on
Speaker 5: the road at that time of day as well, so
Speaker 5: I can't stop in the middle of the road to
Speaker 5: move the bullets. Anyway, I drive around. I finally find
Speaker 5: another park, but then I was so petty. I walked
Speaker 5: back to the spot and I got the bollards and
Speaker 5: I walked the ballards up the street. Yes, and I
Speaker 5: think that that's the okay, appropriate thing to do, right
Speaker 5: to dare he that little shit?
Speaker 6: That would have been No. If I were you, I
Speaker 6: would have got out of a car.
Speaker 5: I would have wound the window dawn and how old
Speaker 5: was a boy? Abe twelve? Edged my car closer.
Speaker 6: Your public figure. You can't be doing that.
Speaker 4: No, I know.
Speaker 5: Every so often there's things that happen and I'm like,
Speaker 5: could I yell at that person?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 6: The answer is always no, Laura, answer is always no.
Speaker 2: Yet No, don't leave the letter once again, the forty
Speaker 2: nine year old allegations.
Speaker 4: No, I guy that they got to the bomb of
Speaker 4: that boat.
Speaker 6: Me too.
Speaker 2: I think it's a very Australian thing, isn't it? Anger
Speaker 2: over parking? Oh my god, it drives me insane.
Speaker 5: It's not just anger parking though, it's anger over anything
Speaker 5: to do with cars. It's an unreasonable amount of anger
Speaker 5: any situation that you would normally have if you bump
Speaker 5: into someone in a supermarket line, if you bump into
Speaker 5: someone and then you're not in a physical car, the
Speaker 5: exact same situation.
Speaker 4: But when you're inside a car, the anger is tenfold.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you said, maybe it's because we're in the car.
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to think what's happening in the car
Speaker 2: that is different. Is it because they're listening to the
Speaker 2: pickup they're enraged by us? Anyway, Look you can go now.
Speaker 6: Time you were all dismissed
