Speaker 2: This is Clearsy and Lisa's podcast.

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 3: Coming up on the podcast today, we asked what did

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 3: you accidentally damage?

6
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 4: We spoke to our coworker Mal who's been going through

7
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 4: the nightmare of trying to build a home that's gone

8
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 4: for years and years.

9
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 3: We asked do opposites really attract? Do they really attract?

10
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 4: And in the shot report you can now officially lick metallica. Oh,

11
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 4: Lasa like that.

12
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 3: Now, China's Great Wall pretty sacred. Yes, it's one of

13
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 3: the Seven Wonders. Oh isn't it?

14
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 2: It is?

15
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,959
Speaker 4: You can see it from space, Yeah, from space, big time.

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 3: Well, it's been damaged by a couple of workers who

17
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 3: are looking for a shortcut.

18
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 4: Unbelievable, Why go over the wall?

19
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: Where do you can go through the wall?

20
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 4: Doing some construction work? And they did their bobcat out.

21
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 3: Yes, a part of the wall has been quite severely

22
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 3: damaged by construction workers who used an excavator to go

23
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 3: straight through it. Two people are suspected of tried to

24
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 3: create a shortcut for their construction work. The two have

25
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 3: been detained and the cases under further investigation, they dug

26
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 3: themselves a big gap by widening an existing cavity of

27
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:12,839
Speaker 3: the Great Wall.

28
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: Their argument is it was really a bit of a.

29
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: Gap so that their excavator could pass through it. Police

30
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 3: say they wanted to reduce the distance they had to travel, right.

31
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 4: So instead of climbing over the top and you're looking

32
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: up for the sacred site that goes through that's nuts.

33
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 4: Do you think it's heritage listed? And they'd have to

34
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 4: do it very special work with the same rocks to

35
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 4: build it again.

36
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: I think it is absolutely heritage listed.

37
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 3: Unbelievable. So they did that on purpose. But we want

38
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: to know what did you accidentally damage? You know, something

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 3: that you know elicited And.

40
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I remember as kids we were playing in

41
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 4: Dad's bar and that was a sacred site that was

42
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 4: heritage fisted as well. You weren't allowed in Dad's bar, but.

43
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: I know think that christ Yeah, my dad did too.

44
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he also had a body shirt with a

45
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 4: rat stabber collar and the medallion. But we were in

46
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 4: the bar fiddling around, the three of us. Oh, my

47
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 4: little brother was a bit too small because you couldn't

48
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 4: you could blame him for stuff and the dad had

49
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 4: this great big wine bottle, like an old fashioned wine

50
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 4: bottle with a long, long neck and a great big,

51
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 4: bulbous bottom bit and it got smashed by the kids. Fool. No,

52
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 4: there was nothing you know it was like, but it

53
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 4: was there as a sort of like an ornament in the.

54
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: Corner of the day. We knocked this off.

55
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: Oh my god, it got smashed. And the only thing

56
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 4: that saved the day was Artie Faye was coming out.

57
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 4: I had rocked up right at the time I got smashed.

58
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 4: He were about to get I don't know what was

59
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 4: going to happen if they don't like to do it. No,

60
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 4: it was World War three, and so the doorbell goes

61
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 4: and we go, oh it's Artie, Thank god. Face over

62

00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 10: Well?

99
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 11: It was a crab, a really big crab or on

100
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 11: our high school sort of mission to do a photography class. Yeah, yeah,

101
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 11: pub is really old memorabilia from the eighteen ninety hundred

102
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 11: sort of thing. And I think this crab might have

103
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 11: been some sort of record holder because it was the

104
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 11: size that was doing well of a cat. Oh well,

105

Speaker 11: well we're taking photos of it.

106
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,960

Speaker 3: in time.

110
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 11: I think I think because it was orange, they must

111
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 11: have spoiled it up.

112
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, someone's Yes, it was just a skeleton. Yeah, I

113
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 4: imagine would shattered quite easily after all that time. Crab

114
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 4: far out. Well, they could have put it in a

115
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 4: personal mixed box for you.

116
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,640

Speaker 2: I damaged my dad's car.

152
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 13: Yes, I borrowed his car to take my mum shopping

153
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 13: because she didn't drive. Pulled up in my car port,

154
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 13: which had poles at the side. His car wasn't automatic,

155
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 13: I didn't put it in park, and I hopped out

156
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 13: of the car the door open, car rolled back and

157
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 13: let the car door right towards the front.

158
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:28,840

00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 8: Oh.

160
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 13: So I ended up having to rope the spoken door

161
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 13: to the pole in the middle of between the two

162
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 13: passenger doors so I could drive the car back to

Speaker 2: It's been fun.

166
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 13: And I burst into tears and then he was he

167
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 13: was quiet. He was really good about it. My brother, luckily,

168
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 13: was a panel.

Speaker 3: that door back together.

172
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, be honest with some of the tears bunned

173
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 4: on for dad to soften blow.

174
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: No, I was just so upset. I was such upset.

175
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: It did help.

176
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 4: It never hurts.

177
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you.

178
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 13: Bye.

179
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 3: Sarah in spear Wood. What did you accidentally damage?

180
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 5: Hi, I damaged a teacher's company house. I was about

181
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 5: twelve years old, and back then we didn't have a toaster.

182
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 5: We used to do it under the grill. And I

183
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 5: grilled my toes and burnt it and put it in

184
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 5: the bin, which was a plastic bag hanging behind the door.

185
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 5: And I went back to my room to get ready

186
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 5: for school, and my sister came out, she was sixteen,

187
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 5: and the house was on fire.

188
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 3: Oh I've never been a fan of the plastic bag door.

189
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 5: No, No, I've been told I didn't realize, you know,

190
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 5: the toast was really really burnt. Iruck it in the bin.

191
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't know it was going to combust.

192
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 4: It was embers in. It's going to go off.

193
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 6: Fun.

194
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of fun.

195
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: Thank you, Sarah, No.

196
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 11: Thank you.

197
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: More Crazy more Lisa, more podcasts soon.

198
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 4: We've been talking about the state of the building industry

199
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 4: and it's not great.

200
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 8: It is terrible.

201
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 4: So many delays, so much cost, and so much stress

202
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 4: for people. And someone we work with is in the

203
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 4: thick of going we'll going through that right now. Her

204
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 4: name is mel and she joins us right now.

205
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 2: When did you start building?

206
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 10: So we started the whole process at the end of

207
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 10: twenty twenty. We had our land purchased contract signed by

208
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 10: near twenty one.

209
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 4: Wow, right, my head hurts just thinking about that time.

210
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 4: That is a long long time ago.

211
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 2: And what's happened since? Is it getting trades?

212
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 3: Is it?

213
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 2: What's what's the biggest obstacle?

214
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 10: We keep getting the same kind of answer for everything,

215
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 10: trade delays and material delays.

216
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 4: Okay, right, okay, what does it mean financially? Mal I

217
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 4: mean obviously not numbers, but obviously every time something gets delayed,

218
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 4: it will cost more in various ways you're going to

219
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 4: live somewhere exactly.

220
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 10: We're paying for rent and mortgage, and both have just

221
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 10: been increasing since we started. We now owe more on

222
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 10: our mortgage than our original loan amount. Wow, we're also

223
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 10: paying counsel rates and double bills for everything.

224
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 9: God.

225
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 3: Now with the delays, when they talk about I understand

226
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 3: about trades, there's not enough of them to go around

227
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 3: with materials and so on. I suppose for a while

228
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 3: their COVID was a very good excuse for things. Does

229
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: it still get thrown about as an excuse?

230
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: It does still get thrown about.

231
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 10: They just say trade and material delays in an email.

232
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: And do you find that people are sympathetic when you

233
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 4: talk about it? Do people get it?

234
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 10: Yeah, a lot of people are sympathetic, but they just

235
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 10: don't understand why it's taking so long. I mean, we

236
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 10: had our slab down at the start of twenty two,

237
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 10: twenty twenty two, and bricks didn't go up until the

238
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 10: start of this year. And that's all that's happened on

239
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 10: our house.

240
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 3: The domino effect of how this is affecting people's lives

241
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 3: is incredible, because don't you have a situation where you're

242
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 3: building in one area, you're living in another area, and

243
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 3: there's a big travel distance between the two, And now

244
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 3: you've got a situation with school enrollments.

245
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 10: Yeah, so my daughter's starting full time school next year

246
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 10: and my son is going into KINDI enrollments happen mid year. Yeah,

247
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 10: so we're stuck now having our kids enrolled in the

248
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 10: school where we live the next year, and depending on

249
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 10: when the bill gets completed, they're never giving us a timeline.

250
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 10: We're going to have to try and rip them out

251
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 10: of school and get them enrolled in different school, which

252
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 10: is actually a hard process.

253
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 6: Happy about it.

254
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 3: Like everything, there's only you know, like trade is and

255
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 3: material there's only a certain number of places, so you

256
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 3: could end up doing the roundest school drop off trip

257
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 3: known to man.

258
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 2: It's about an hour distance. So stress.

259
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 10: And we also have to think about daycare and before

260
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 10: school and after school care programs. They have massive waiting lists,

261
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 10: so they can be up to a year long waiting

262
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 10: list to get your child into daycare. But we can't

263
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 10: actually go on a waiting list at the moment because

264
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 10: we've got no end date in site.

265
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 3: Well, how are you keeping yourself calm? I guess might

266
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 3: be I'm not, but I mean sound you sound pretty calm?

267
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 3: Are you going the route of I can't control any

268
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 3: of this? So you know it's no point lose?

269
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 2: My partner gets very angry. Yeah, I've just given up.

270
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 10: Yeah, it feels like now owning a home, even though

271
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 10: we're paying for it. It's apparently being built.

272
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 2: It's more of a pipe dream than before we start this.

273
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 8: Yeah.

274
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's a heartbreak of this because I know

275
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 4: another family in a similar situation they've actually finally got

276
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 4: their house done and they've lost They've fallen out of

277
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 4: love with it.

278
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 9: Now.

279
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 4: You don't want that to happen for you, guys, But

280
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 4: it's quite tragic, really, isn't it from that point of view.

281
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's starting to happen because of the delays in

282
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 10: the actual build. A lot of the stuff we picked

283
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 10: out and prestart is no longer available, they're no longer

284
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 10: making a companies have collapsed, so they're just coming up

285
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 10: with the next kind of closest match solution. Yeah, and

286
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 10: so the house is going to be a lot different

287
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 10: than from what we originally dreamed and chose.

288
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: Do you have any idea when it might be completed? No, no,

289
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 2: no idea.

290
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 10: No one's selling us anything right at all. They just

291
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 10: keep saying it's a six plus month wait for this,

292
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 10: when we've been waiting over six months. Yeah, it's kind

293
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 10: of getting to the point where what if the builder

294
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 10: collapses before our house is built? What if it doesn't

295
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 10: get completed until, you know, ten years from now?

296
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 4: A long time to keep your fingers crossed? And Mel,

297
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 4: we know you're not the only couple in this situation.

298
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 4: Only family, but what about with small talk friends, family,

299
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 4: even acquaintances when you catch up, you don't want to

300
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 4: do you avoid the conversation because you don't want to

301
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 4: be the you know, the couple with the slow house build.

302
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 10: I do kind of avoid the situation because I don't

303
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 10: just want to complain to everyone around me.

304
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, ye so, but.

305
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 2: Yes, in the kitchen at work and yeah, how's the

306
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 2: house going, and it's not. Let's talk about something else.

307
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 3: Well, we really appreciate that you're talking with us about

308
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: it today.

309
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: We know this is really hard.

310
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 3: I don't even know what to say, just a fingers

311
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 3: are cross for you that things, you know, work out.

312
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 4: It's horrible, very stressful.

313
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 10: I'm just hoping something gets done within the next five years.

314
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 3: Nice, nice, here boy, is it going to be the

315
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: house swarming of all housewarming parties?

316
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 2: When you thank you, it's.

317
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 4: All the best.

318
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 3: It sounds like a nightmare, and we know that Meil

319
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 3: isn't the only one experiencing it. If you're in a

320
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 3: similar situation, or if you work for a building company

321
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 3: or you're a tradee and you can shed some further

322
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 3: light on the situation, tell us what your experience is.

323
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 3: Maybe you've got some you know, some little tricks suggestions

324
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 3: that you know of to get things rolling, some assistance.

325
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: But I mean, there is the house on the up

326
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 3: sort of like one blockdown from mine, on my on

327
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: my street. Is has been being built for about three years,

328
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 3: and sometimes I go like a fortnight or so of

329
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 3: driving past it and there's nothing tumbleweeds.

330
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 4: You sometimes think of that building themselves.

331
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: I'm wondering if well, that's what I thought. I thought, Oh,

332
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: this guy.

333
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: Must be building his house himself in his spare time.

334
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 3: But now I'm thinking, no, they're just they're just trying

335
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 3: to get there.

336
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 4: When you're in a situation like this, all you want

337
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 4: is hope. Hope is such a big positivity. I want

338
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 4: some movie you want your route pack, you want your

339
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 4: roof to go up if you just got brick walls

340
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 4: after a year and maybe even more.

341
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tony and Rockingham Hello Tony, Hey, well what's your situation.

342
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 9: So I've just had handover. It was a three and

343
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 9: a half years build, so started twenty twenty was the

344
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 9: start of everything, so handover hand that was now being done.

345
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 9: I just want to share with people. The building companies,

346
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 9: a lot of them will try to get you sign

347
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 9: the practical completion before the actual house is completed, right

348
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 9: when it's sort of a that seventy percent mark. With me,

349
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 9: they tried to get me to sign practical completion, no

350
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 9: garage store on the walls were up, no fit out

351
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 9: of the inside of the house, et cetera, et cetera.

352
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 9: And I held off. Yeah, because because that practical completion,

353
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 9: of course, she become responsible for all of the loan payments.

354
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 9: And then they just slow up more because you've accepted it,

355
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 9: so they try that. I had a nightmare with my builder.

356
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 9: Of course I won't won't mention a name, but I

357
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 9: absolutely not mean so. Just have a diary specifically for

358
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 9: the build with and make notes of all correspondents all

359
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 9: significant events right through the diary because you will you

360
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 9: will need to go back to it and and challenge

361
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 9: them on a lot of things. But they do try

362
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 9: to They do try to push practical completion before the

363
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 9: place is completed.

364
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 11: Yeah.

365
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 3: I don't like the sound of that term at all,

366
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 3: So I be a little bit pregnant. Practical completion no finished,

367
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 3: or it's not one or the other.

368
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 9: Well, practical completion is part of the process, so you

369
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 9: sign off on the completion of the property. But if

370
00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 9: it's not completed, Moe wasn't even the interior, wasn't even

371
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 9: fit it out in no garage door. So it took

372
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 9: another eighteen months after that original attempt to get practical completion.

373
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 4: Really, okay, so that's slid up.

374
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 8: Anyway, I held on.

375
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 9: I held them to account for all of my expenses

376
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 9: from the date they booked that original practical completion. So

377
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 9: as long as you keep your diary and you keep

378
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 9: a record, you can you can take them.

379
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 4: For it was eighteen months after that point. Imagine if

380
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 4: you had signed it, it would have been have been another

381
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 4: three years or something from that exactly.

382
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, but if you keep records, you take into account

383
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 9: for that plus any out of pocket expenses after that date.

384
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you have your keys in your hand.

385
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 9: I do not all of them. They forgot to give

386
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 9: me one, so I'm still going through.

387
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: That happy moving in daytime. Yeah, you can see you

388
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 3: one of the lucky ones.

389
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 8: Now.

390
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, good luck to everybody.

391
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're cold, it's interesting, and you know it

392
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 3: can be intimidating.

393
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: So just a tiny is saying.

394
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 3: And also if you're just so sick to death of

395
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 3: it being a work site, you might be tempted to go.

396
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'll get to that other stuff.

397
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, but if tiny's right, you've got a standar ground

398
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: and lere's.

399
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 4: So many things about building a house. I've bult a

400
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 4: house in Lansdale a long time ago, and I got

401
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 4: to that almost that practical completion. But I did have

402
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 4: someone come in and do an inspection and the guy says,

403
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 4: there's not enough wood in your roof. Yeah, so I

404
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 4: had to tell them they get some more, and so

405
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 4: they put some more timber and there reavy pilot timber

406
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 4: the next day. So you do have to keep an eye.

407
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 4: And I'm not all builders are bad, but Chinese obviously

408
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 4: had a bad experience as well.

409
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 2: All right, Well, good luck to everyone who's building more.

410
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: Clezy, more Lisa, more podcasts soon, there's sure. Report on

00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 3: three feature films were with budgets in excess of ten

420
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 3: million dollars are on the horizon as well.

421
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:20,560

Speaker 3: The Fraser reboot is set for release on Paramount next month,

423
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,720

424
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 3: no Niles, there's no Daphne, and obviously there's no John

425
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 3: Mahoni playing markin Crane. So a certain group of fans

426
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 3: are doing their own Fraser reboot, except it's animated. Over

427

428
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 3: own takes of episodes in the upcoming season with their

429
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 3: own unique twists, starting with their take on the show's

430
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 3: theme song.

431
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 8: Hey, maybe I.

432
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 4: Hear them blues of College dos Allis and Scramble day

434
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 8: Yeah maybe, but I got you pegged. But that the

435
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 8: world with those dots out inspirable. They're going again, happy

436

Speaker 11: All right?

438
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 3: Well, I was expecting something completely different, not just the

439
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 3: same song sung by someone else. If that's an indication

440
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 3: of their show, I doubt I will be looking for it.

441
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 4: It was a bit different, but not different.

442
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 3: Even though I do agree. I'm a bit concerned about

443
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 3: the no no Niles, my Daphne.

444
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,159

00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 3: cream company called enlightened to create a guitar shaped vanilla

454
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 3: ice cream.

Speaker 2: Screen slaps it is metal. You can't get anything on

456
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 2: the internet.

457
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 8: Rock it out.

00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: You'll have to make do with the.

465
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 3: Peters drum hardick last joke, love it. A new study

466
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 3: says opposites don't attract. Couples are more likely to be

467
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 3: similar than different. Because it's the age old question. People

468
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 3: like to think that opposites to a track, but deep down,

469
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 3: you may have more in common with that person than

470
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 3: you think. The study on romantic relationships found that for

471
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 3: more than eighty percent of the traits that they analyzed,

472
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 3: from political views, to lifestyle choices to even the age

473
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 3: at which she first had sex, partners were often remarkably similar.

474
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 3: Tanya Horowitz as a PhD student at the University of

475
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 3: Colorado in the US. She says birds of a feather

476
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 3: are indeed more likely to flock together. She found couples

477
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 3: largely matched across a range of traits, including political and

478
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 3: religious views well that's a big one, levels of education,

479
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 3: and some measures of IQ. Heavy smokers, heavy drinkers, or

480
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 3: teetotalers tend to partner up with people who share their habits.

481
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 3: Couples were likely to share a similar birth year and

482
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 3: show similarities in terms of less well studied traits, such

483
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 3: as whether they were breastfed as a baby, because that

484
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 3: doesn't come up usually at the at the junction.

485
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 2: At the getting to know you, maybe not store bottle.

486
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 3: When oppicits did appear to attract, the associations were often

487
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 3: weak and uncertain. This was seen in early rises pairing

488
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 3: with night owls, or those who have a tendency to

489
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 3: worry pairing with those who don't. Horowitz says, even in

490
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 3: situations where we feel like we have a choice about

491
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 3: our relationships, there may be mechanisms happening of which we

492
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 3: aren't fully aware. I guess you're saying that we're drawn

493
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 3: to certain things without even realizing it. I definitely can't

494
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 3: do a big age gap. I may be many things,

495
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: but cougar is not one of the bible to not

496
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:38,479
Speaker 3: think of anything worse than being with someone A bloke

497
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 3: twenty years younger than me, so who did not get

498
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 3: any references, did not watch the same TV shows growing up,

499
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 3: didn't we I mean, listening to music that's okay, but

500
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 3: not getting your cultural references, not understand I could not.

501
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 4: So if you said psychedelic fan, do you care what

502
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 4: he looked like? If you said psychedelic Foo and you

503
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 4: thought you were talking about kind of a new pet

504
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 4: or something, get out, say would you go the other way?

505
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 4: If it's Rupert Murdal, who's your hack?

506
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 2: What's your hurry?

507
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 4: These things are never clear into the sorry throwing the

508
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 4: cash in. These things are want someone old, well, someone

509
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 4: is very close. These things are very very ill. As

510
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 4: much as we like things to be simple and clear

511
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 4: cut and all that, there never really are. And sometimes,

512
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 4: like you say, there's other things going under the surface

513
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 4: with Laurie and I. I mean, one's a navigator and

514
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 4: Laurie's always lost, one's highly intelligent, and then there's me,

515
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 4: you know what I mean? So different in so many

516
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 4: ways and so similar in others.

517
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 3: Yes, it's those I think it's I mean, it's really

518
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 3: no surprises, and it's those fundamental things. It's like you're

519
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:49,360
Speaker 3: your views on what's what's right and what's not so

520
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 3: much as whether you get up early or yeah, because

521
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 3: if crap at you know, navigation.

522
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 4: If there's basic basic things aren't the same, then you're

523
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 4: probably always going to be having a bit of a

524
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 4: ou about the basics.

525
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 2: ACA, I couldn't be bothered, No, I would it not

526
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 2: be bothered.

527
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 4: Then again, when Rupert comes in and he's a bit

528
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 4: messy and you don't agree with his bookkeeping, Sorry about that.

529
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 8: Crazy and Liza
