Speaker 1: Come on, I know ever reward a Friday Friday, one
Speaker 1: step closer.
Speaker 2: To the weekend.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: We just both got coffees, but we were actually almost
Speaker 1: running lane.
Speaker 3: Almost didn't make it to the show. Britt and we
Speaker 3: get out of there. Well, the only.
Speaker 1: Reason we were delayed is because major Brittany Hockley fans.
Speaker 3: At the cafe underneath the radio station.
Speaker 1: We both order a coffee and they go order for
Speaker 1: for brit because Britt paid for.
Speaker 3: Mine very nice, always standard, and they can.
Speaker 1: Be my coffee. And it had just the coffee just
Speaker 1: that had written on the lead, you know, Armond cappuccino,
Speaker 1: which is my order. Then Britt gets her coffee and
Speaker 1: written on it like it's some sort of manifesto, have
Speaker 1: a great day, Brittany, multiple love hearts.
Speaker 3: And then she had a piece of brownie on top.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I'm a hero down there at the coffee shop.
Speaker 3: I think you're keeping them afloat man with you. I
Speaker 3: do order.
Speaker 2: I think that's all it is.
Speaker 4: It's just that I order so much, and I always
Speaker 4: ordered banana bread with it, so I do spend a
Speaker 4: lot of money.
Speaker 3: They basically thruitted me, like they could not kill it.
Speaker 4: Are you genuinely upset that the coffee shop likes me better? Like?
Speaker 2: Is that bothering you?
Speaker 4: What?
Speaker 3: She then said? She went, your skin is glowing?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, she did say that to Brittain.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I just buy her dinner man.
Speaker 2: And then she said love your hair to me as well.
Speaker 1: Then you got out of their hair, and then I
Speaker 1: tried to throw it. I went, yeah, she's getting bullied
Speaker 1: because now she's a ranger. And she went, oh that's
Speaker 1: not nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you didn't do well down there. It wasn't your phone.
Speaker 1: It's much my coffee shops are they Well, we'll we're caffeinated.
Speaker 1: So it's going to be a good show for a Friday.
Speaker 2: I'm feeling good. You know who else is feeling good?
Speaker 4: The fifty eight year old that he's making absolute waves
Speaker 4: at the Games at the moment in Paris. Oh my god,
Speaker 4: who would think that at fifty eight years old, almost
Speaker 4: sixty years old, you would be at the Games competing?
Speaker 3: Crazy?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy. Wait to hear what she's doing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can't quite pick the sport fifty Yeah, and.
Speaker 2: You know, fifty eighth is not old, that's not what
Speaker 2: it is.
Speaker 4: But it's pretty old to be competing against the best
Speaker 4: in the world at something.
Speaker 2: What do you reckon?
Speaker 3: The sport is crocheting? Making pasta bake?
Speaker 2: That's very cliche. Nah, it's really gonna surprise you, tho.
Speaker 1: Okay, No, good for her. I'm impressed. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to find out. Let's go Friday around the country. Well,
Speaker 1: go to the pickup.
Speaker 5: So I found out yesterday that I threw something in
Speaker 5: the bin that was very very important. Now, the sad
Speaker 5: part of this story is that it went in the
Speaker 5: bin weeks ago and there's no way that I'm going
Speaker 5: to get it back.
Speaker 3: Oh, that's such a bad feeling. What was it?
Speaker 5: Something very sentimental, something that means a lot to me,
Speaker 5: and something that when I found out it was gone,
Speaker 5: I was furious at my husband and furious at my set.
Speaker 3: Did Maddie j throw it out of it?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: I threw it out. But he has something to do
Speaker 2: with it. Okay.
Speaker 5: So my husband, Matt he I mean, you may or
Speaker 5: may not be familiar, but he does a lot of
Speaker 5: work across social media. He does a lot of funny skits,
Speaker 5: He does a lot of funny videos. He sometimes dresses
Speaker 5: up when he does these funny videos as different characters,
Speaker 5: and so actually he's a grown man that has a
Speaker 5: costume box in our house.
Speaker 2: Like we've got wigs, we've got props.
Speaker 5: Now, the problem with Matt is that he'll do a
Speaker 5: skit and then he'll leave the prop just like out
Speaker 5: of the box, floating around the house. We still have
Speaker 5: a spanking whip which he used for a Valentine's Day
Speaker 5: skit video two years ago, just floating around the house
Speaker 5: and I pop over this after you can absolutely, you
Speaker 5: can have it.
Speaker 2: You can have it, okay.
Speaker 5: So recently he was doing the skit and it required
Speaker 5: a clipboard and had some paper. He was obviously writing
Speaker 5: something down, and I said to him because he left
Speaker 5: all of the stuff everywhere after he finished it, and
Speaker 5: I was like, if you don't put that in the
Speaker 5: box where it belongs, I'm going to chuck it in
Speaker 5: the bin because it was a cheap two dollar clipboard
Speaker 5: that he's never going to use again. And we have
Speaker 5: about one hundred of them because every time he does
Speaker 5: a new skit, he buys a new clipboard. So a
Speaker 5: week went past, I mentioned it to him again, nothing happened.
Speaker 5: Two weeks went past, mentioned it to him again, nothing happened,
Speaker 5: and so eventually I came home this one day and
Speaker 5: there the stupid clipboard was sitting on the kitchen bench
Speaker 5: and I picked it up and I walked out to
Speaker 5: the bin and I threw it in.
Speaker 2: So yesterday he.
Speaker 5: Comes home and he says, hey, babe, that clipboard that
Speaker 5: had had the paper on it, which put it? And
Speaker 5: I said, well, like I told you, I put it
Speaker 5: in the bin. And the color literally drained from his
Speaker 5: face and I was like, please don't tell me, please,
Speaker 5: please stop. And he goes, did you the paper that
Speaker 5: was attached to it?
Speaker 6: Did you?
Speaker 2: Did you put that in the bin as well? And
Speaker 2: I said, yeah, I put the whole thing in the bin,
Speaker 2: the paper that you'd scribbled all over.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: So turns out what he'd been using to scribble on
Speaker 5: was the envelope to our wedding certificate. And what was
Speaker 5: inside that envelope was the wedding certificate, the one from
Speaker 5: the day that we signed, that brit that you signed
Speaker 5: as my witness, that our friend from England who flew over,
Speaker 5: who was our other, Our official beautiful wedding certificate that
Speaker 5: people keep for the length of their marriage is somewhere
Speaker 5: in the tip and we're never going to get it back.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Okay, you threw it out.
Speaker 4: Why was he scribbling on your wedding certificate?
Speaker 5: Scribbling on the envelope and he obviously in his like
Speaker 5: moment of just trying to do this skit, he just
Speaker 5: picked up some paperwork with the intention of putting it back.
Speaker 5: Don't get me started. It was a very silly idea.
Speaker 5: But also I could I mean, I'm not taking blame
Speaker 5: for this. I could have checked, but like, no, this
Speaker 5: is all his fault.
Speaker 1: Why was it just sitting on the dining room, psychopath?
Speaker 2: Because we moved recently, We recently moved house.
Speaker 3: Were never the wedding was a year ago. Don't blame me.
Speaker 3: This is Matthew Johnson's fault.
Speaker 2: I will not take responsibility.
Speaker 1: You have so many calls coming through throughout a piece
Speaker 1: of paper through there's nothing compared to the sanctuary, sanctuary, sanctimonium.
Speaker 2: No one knows what I'm saying. Marriage.
Speaker 5: You know what, Some people say that a wedding is
Speaker 5: not worth the paper it's written on. But I reckon
Speaker 5: our wedding and our marriage is gonna last a lot
Speaker 5: longer than the certificate.
Speaker 3: Dude, Oh, that's so funny. Hey.
Speaker 1: Next on the show, we're talking about the Games athlete
Speaker 1: that is over in Europe competing at the moment that
Speaker 1: has your attention, brit you're obsessed with her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, look, with a lot of Games athletes at the moment,
Speaker 4: but this one has my attention for a different reason
Speaker 4: because she's competing at fifty eight years old, and I'm
Speaker 4: all about it, like god smacked.
Speaker 3: I'd love to know. Give us a call quickly. What
Speaker 3: did you pick up late in life?
Speaker 1: Because this is this is sort of the peak, the
Speaker 1: pinnacle of picking up a hobby lading life, going.
Speaker 3: To the game.
Speaker 2: It means we've still got a chance, bitch.
Speaker 1: Final bit would go, yeah, are good, Hey, give us
Speaker 1: a call. We'll take your cause.
Speaker 4: Next on the pickup, Look, it's no surprise that we're
Speaker 4: all absolutely loving the Games. Oh we're sit here waiting
Speaker 4: four years for this moment, and I'm so impressed by
Speaker 4: all the athletes, all the ossies out there absolutely killing it.
Speaker 4: Like it's incredible to watch these people that are just
Speaker 4: the best in the world are what they do.
Speaker 3: That's I so fit.
Speaker 2: They're ripped, they're so talented, you.
Speaker 3: Know, what I love.
Speaker 1: I love going to bed at night with the games on, telling,
Speaker 1: not even necessarily watching, just falling asleep, knowing that there
Speaker 1: are people out there giving their all while I've just
Speaker 1: eaten two meals and gone to bit.
Speaker 4: While you're nappy. I think they want to hear that
Speaker 4: you're not watching.
Speaker 3: I'm watching, that I'm in and out.
Speaker 4: This reminds me when Ben says he likes to listen
Speaker 4: to my podcast as he goes to bed, I'm like,
Speaker 4: not what I want.
Speaker 3: Your boyfriend, Ben listens.
Speaker 4: To your podcast sounds like put you to sleep, yeah,
Speaker 4: but also put you to sleep.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The inference there's not good.
Speaker 4: No. But there's one athlete that's really impressed me and
Speaker 4: caught my attention.
Speaker 2: She no longer is in the game. She didn't win, unfortunately,
Speaker 2: but she's out.
Speaker 4: She's fifty eight year old Chileian table tennis player zang Ziying.
Speaker 2: She's nearly sixty years old, and she has made her
Speaker 2: game's debut.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 4: I think that is incredible because she said she played
Speaker 4: like when she was younger with her mum, I think,
Speaker 4: and then she took decades off, didn't do anything for decades.
Speaker 4: Then his later in life retires, She's like, what am
Speaker 4: I going to do? I know I'm going to go
Speaker 4: to the games. I'm going to try and be the
Speaker 4: best in the world. So she picked it back up
Speaker 4: and there she is.
Speaker 1: That is incredible proofs doesn't matter how old you are,
Speaker 1: you can still be a table tennis.
Speaker 4: She did lose to a forty six year old who
Speaker 4: obviously had age and agility on their side.
Speaker 2: But I don't think that's the lesson here.
Speaker 4: I think the lesson is if we can learn anything
Speaker 4: from Zenzing, it's age is just the number, like you
Speaker 4: can do anything you want at any point of.
Speaker 1: Give us a call here at the show. What did
Speaker 1: you pick up late in life? And actually, what did
Speaker 1: your master late in life? I tried to learn the thereman,
Speaker 1: which is an instrument during the pandemic. Learned that kind
Speaker 1: of sounds like it's like for me x files.
Speaker 4: You know, I actually don't know, and you're not doing
Speaker 4: a good job of explaining it.
Speaker 3: It sounds like it's the it's the I don't be
Speaker 3: doing it a third time house.
Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like I picked up being a
Speaker 4: radio host later in life.
Speaker 1: True, but I guess that was only thirty three three
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that.
Speaker 2: Is that late in life?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 1: You picked up you went red lading life? You just
Speaker 1: dyed your hair red. So that's that's the chief lut.
Speaker 2: That wasn't talent. I just someone else did that.
Speaker 3: Teagan's called, Hey, how old are you? What did you
Speaker 3: pick up later in life? Teags?
Speaker 6: Hey, guys, I'm thirty two, so maybe not too old.
Speaker 6: But I just started cheerleading this year. Oh never ever
Speaker 6: done anything.
Speaker 7: Like that before?
Speaker 4: You?
Speaker 2: Did you grow up doing gymnastics or something?
Speaker 6: No, nothing at all. I've learned to Hanson and cartwheel
Speaker 6: and everything in like three months. So do you do
Speaker 6: in the air?
Speaker 7: And it's not?
Speaker 8: Do you?

Speaker 3: Oh wow, I don't mean to laugh.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but I could not control that. I didn't
Speaker 2: know I laughed. I didn't know clog dancing was a thing.
Speaker 2: When I think of clogs, I just think of cheese
Speaker 2: and Amsterdam.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, you know.
Speaker 7: It's like a no, she's not. But it's like a
Speaker 7: combination between like tap dancing and Irish And there's like
Speaker 7: a whole heap of them that go down to the
Speaker 7: community hall once a week and do their little clog dancing.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 2: I think when I'm older, I might take up line dancing. Yeah,
Speaker 2: my boo's good. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 3: I think I want to be a hairdresser late in life.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think i'd just be really good at it.
Speaker 2: I think you too. But I think mainly it's just
Speaker 2: the gossip and the talking. You wouldn't do anything. You
Speaker 2: just wave your hands around with scissors.
Speaker 1: Do my memory be so bad that I'd forget the
Speaker 1: gossip and bring it back up the next day, And
Speaker 1: then you've got an undercut? I had coming into the

Speaker 1: got a down pat man. I had this boiled egg
Speaker 1: in my left hand, driving the steering wheel with my rime.
Speaker 3: I've worked it out.
Speaker 1: I get this egg and I smash it against the
Speaker 1: gearstick nob because it's the hardest surface in the car.
Speaker 1: And I get the most perfect crack in the world,

Speaker 1: straight through the seam. I pull the top off, the
Speaker 1: whole half of the shell comes off. I pull the
Speaker 1: bottom half. The full bottom half comes off. And I
