I'm Matty 0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:15.000 Jay and I'm Ash and this is a podcast all 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.479 about parenting. It is the good, it. 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:19.759 Is also the bad and the relatable. 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.800 And if you've come winning any advice, I'm just going 0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:23.959 to warn you right now in case you are new 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:27.360 to the podcast. No advice has ever been given, nor 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.759 will it ever be given in the future. Not real 0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:33.199 advice anyway, just the fake advice, just the funny stuffnetic 0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:36.320 synthetic advice. 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:39.160 How are you, Matthew? How are you look? 0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:42.280 I think we're both in the same boat here, fatigued. 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:45.360 We're fatigued. We're in recovery mode right now. 0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:48.120 I've got two blisters on both of my big toes. 0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.800 You got those blisters very quick. We are, of course 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.480 talking about the city to Surf, which we completed last weekend. 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:56.200 Yes, just the weekend just gone. And yes I did 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.320 get blisters really early on. 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.680 Yeah, we're like, well, walking towards the taxi and you're like, 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:02.440 oh godless. 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.360 Probably got myself to blame. I think maybe it might 0:02:06.400 --> 0:02:09.560 have been my Sox shoe combination. I sort of rushed 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:12.200 out the door of the day before and I grabbed 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.160 some socks that I would usually wear with another pair 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.119 of runners, and I think maybe they didn't agree. Irfe 0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:22.600 were like, what I brang two brands together that didn't agree. 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:26.360 I also like to keep the Puma shoes with the 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:27.160 Puma socks. 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:32.919 It's definitely this is not it's not sponsored anyway, Yes, 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.320 we did do the City of the Circus. Oh, and 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.560 I'm going to say it, I have never been in 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.880 a place with that many people. I mean, probably have 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:42.960 your football stadiums and stuff blah blah blah, but like 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:46.800 that many people on the same level. Yes, it was 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:48.880 like a It was the human sea. 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:52.160 I think, ash. I think I don't have the official 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:56.680 numbers here, so if I'm wrong, I apologize. Ninety thousand gee, 0:02:57.200 --> 0:02:59.359 could be wrong, could be wrong. I heard someone say 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.160 ninety thousand, and I was like, that sounds out right. 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.080 Only thousand people A lot of people. 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.880 A lot. It was like a sea. I've never do 0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:09.440 you know what. I also forgot that because they do 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.080 play it on the news and stuff every year. I 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:15.280 don't really watch much news, mainly because they can't handle 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:17.960 the bad news if it's all good news on there. 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.160 I have seen it before in the news, but then 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:24.240 this in real life. I was like, oh, yeah, it's 0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:25.040 like this is the thing. 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:29.600 And it was like, I think, a fucking thing. And 0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:32.720 it was exciting for the kids because you came to 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:38.760 my house for a sleepover, you brought our scars and 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.119 it was nice. It was nice. The kids were excited 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.760 we did almost have the whole event derail itself. 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:48.800 Well, before we get to the derail, we did traumatize 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.800 a small child with the wildlife that is your house. 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:59.160 Oh you've forgotten. Sorry, So Matt, as we know, Matt 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.960 has a three legged Buster who's quite a big boy. 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:05.720 And for a small child that doesn't know Buster, well, even. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.080 Adults are scared of him. Yeah, and he barks at everyone. 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:12.880 He's got a really really yeah, really girthy bark, like 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:14.120 that comes deep. 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.279 We have many people someone say he's like just like 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:21.720 delivering a parcel. They hear Buster and they're like, yeah, yeah, 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:22.880 they're going the other way. 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.560 And then when he's like hopping, half hop half running 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:25.920 at you. 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:26.920 Yeah, it's like a monster. 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:30.240 Yeah, if it was like really dark, you'd be fucking petrified. 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.240 Oh yeah, this is like bouncing, billowing towards you. 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:37.159 So there was that at first, which I pre warned Oscar. 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:38.760 But I didn't pre warn him until we pulled up 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:40.320 at your house because I wouldn't have got him there. 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:42.520 He would have been like, Nope, we're going where there 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.359 was a three legged animal that has forty kilos. It 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:49.360 could eat you, but it won't, and it's very loud. 0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.839 I said to him his three leaders. Why has he 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.919 got three leagus? I said, oh, he lost he lost 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:56.440 his other league when he was a puppy. And then 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:58.640 he was like thinking about it and he was like 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:05.800 where is it? And I was like, oh no, no, no, no, no, 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:09.680 it's gone. It's long gone. So there was that and 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.640 that straight away, like he didn't want to leave my side. 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.719 I had to hold him the whole time. But then 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.440 he sort of came good. When he was outside. Buster 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.479 was in his bed and you know, busses all bark 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.360 and then he's back to bed pretty much. So there 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.960 was that, and then he came around. There's also the 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:29.279 cat which Osco had been around the cat that afternoon. 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:32.120 The cat's feral. By the way, I'm off the cat. 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.159 I know sometimes Laurel will post a video of me 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:38.240 like sitting with the cat, but overall, I'm not into 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.880 the cat at all. It's also very it's very swipey. 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:43.920 It's a swipy cat, like on the bench stools. 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:47.359 You walk past it and just go yeah, You'll be 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:49.880 walking past and like some chloral latch onto you jump 0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:50.240 and your. 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:53.320 Hair and you're like Ellie, my mom cat. But the 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.080 kids are constantly like coming to me, being like the 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:57.440 cat's come for me again. 0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.320 Yeah, oh my god. But it's sort of the I've 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.479 noticed that the cat's sort of become part of the 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.440 background furniture of the house, like it used to be 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.159 the main focus because it was so small. Now that 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.159 it's grown, it's kind of like, there's the cat. Yeah, 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.880 and then it will do those things for its attention, 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:17.159 I would say, But kids all bath, everyone got ready 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.520 for bed. Oscar and I were in our separate room 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:20.880 obviously everyone else. 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.400 And he was a bit nervous, so you get that 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:25.680 it's a new environment. And he was like I remember 0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:28.080 him saying, hey, daddy, where are you going to sleep? 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:29.960 And You're like, you don't worry, I'm going to come. 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.120 I'm going to be right next to you. Yeah, and 0:06:32.560 --> 0:06:34.120 just a bit of wine downtime, I said, okay, I'll 0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:36.320 be right back, okay, Like well, lights were still on, 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:36.960 like dem. 0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:39.320 When this house is safe, don't worry, Oscar. There's nothing 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.320 here that's going to hurt you. I think that's going 0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:42.840 to jump out in the middle of the night and 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.520 attack you. Work. Let's just yeah, you know, to rest, 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:46.919 put you at ease. Yes. 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:53.320 So after putting him at ease, going Buster's not coming upstairs. 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:55.560 He's got three legs. He can't get upstairs. And I'm like, 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:59.240 where's Raspberry No one said anything about Raspberry Cat anyway. 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:01.680 So I'm down stairs and I think we were I 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:03.800 don't know what we're doing.

And then I'm like, okay, so what 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:10.360 are you gonna do? She goes, I want to drive 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:13.440 up my car and a Rubers coming. Our kids are 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:15.679 old enough to jump on you. Ba. Next thing, Laura goes, 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:17.920 did you get the pram out of the back of 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:18.840 the taxi, back. 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.040 Of the uber, out of the first sup? What do 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.520 I was to back you up? And Laura will still 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:27.360 not believe even though you've got a witness, She's got 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:28.280 zero witnesses. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.640 I will say, my witness is not the most reliable person. 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:31.400 Well on. 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.360 A sketchy pat wouldn't be anyone's first choice. 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:39.479 And we get it. We get it, all right, I'm untrustworthy. 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:43.080 But you were in that I remember she called you 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.760 and we were walking down the hallway and got down 0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:49.880 and she was full panic about it, and Lola was like, 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.520 what's going on, no idea, what's going on? And then 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:56.800 she's also on the phone to the cab company trying 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.200 to book another cab and an old mate in the 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.520 first spoon has taken off to the would have been 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.960 no chance, no opportunity. 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:05.840 For you to retrieve. 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:09.760 Yeah, so said long story short, Matt got blamed for 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:10.760 the loss of a pram. 0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:14.040 We lost. We lost the prem. We lost the prem. 0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.000 Before even leaving the house. 0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:20.480 Like it's like seven fifteen right now, am, and it's 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:21.280 already falling. 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.439 Apart, and I imagine being a fly on the wall. 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:25.560 Oh my god. We were yelling at each other on 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:27.560 the street. The neighbors must have been like someone's been 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:28.160 a tax oscar. 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.440 Was like, I was like, okay, just you be quiet. Now, 0:11:30.600 --> 0:11:32.880 we'll both be quiet. Just let this play out. I 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.160 just don't want to add any fuel to the fight. 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:38.040 I was going to be like when you were and 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.280 Laura were have a little tip about whose fould it was, 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:41.560 I was going to be like, yeah, man, why did 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:46.040 you leave? I was like, if you did it? 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:47.920 Actually self restrained. 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:50.600 Do you know what stopped me from that? The hour 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:51.680 which was lovely. 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:52.400 He was not. 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:53.719 I thought he doesn't need this. 0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:59.280 So luckily we have the other prem, yeah, massive prem 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.680 as well. So Laura grab that somehow she ended up 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.160 in a train. I thought we'd never see her again. 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:06.240 We did see it, we thought she did. She's like, 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.200 I've ended up in Newcastle and this is your fault. 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:11.319 Why are you at the airport? 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.240 Shut up? It was such a frazzled morning. But then 0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:18.079 we get out ourselves and we've got a pram kindly 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:19.760 donated by g WM. 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.280 Can I just say a lot of people have been like, oh, 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.439 must be nice to roll around and that is it full. 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:30.880 We'll get to why we did the city deserve shortly. 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:33.840 But it was donated to us to use, not to keep, 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.600 brow to borrow, I mean, although they probably want us 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.400 to keep it now after the kid's trashed absolutely like 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:43.400 a brothel. It's so bad. But we get out as 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:46.040 all the parents listening, you unfold the pram, which is 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:49.960 an exercise in itself. Kids get in. We realized that 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:51.200 we haven't pumped the tires. 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:56.160 We pushed it round with no kids in it. Once 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:57.400 we have two kids in it. 0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:00.800 Flat tires, they're not run flat, they're not those European 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.440 run flats. There was like a proper like racing bike 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:03.760 and at. 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:08.320 This point I'm like, I can't take it. You can 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:08.920 do it on your own. 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:10.280 I think I looked at you and I was like, 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:15.959 do we have to do this? Luckily and randomly, Hyde 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.960 Park on the corner has like a bike pump. It 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:24.240 could be confused as an explosive though, a bit that, 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.520 but it saved us. We're just solving problems here. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:30.480 It was they don't make it easy, and then the crowd, 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.560 and then the crowd, and then Marley's like, is it 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.840 over yet, and I'm like, well, strap on in, kid, 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:39.840 because we've got fourteen of the best kilometers in Sydney 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:40.720 to conquer. 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:44.240 Yes. We all lined up on the start line, which 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.599 was so crowded. 0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:50.280 Like to be fair, dad, in our wave there was 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:52.400 it was like the family walking wave. I saw a 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.800 dad with twins newborns. 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:57.079 That's right, because we're sitting there and we're getting a 0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:59.199 photo and I think we were taking the photo and 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:04.360 you were like twins and I was like, just grab one. 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:08.840 Everyone crowded around, but yeah, We'll line up in the 0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:10.839 family of friends section, which this is the first time 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:12.960 I've ever done seated the surf as I said before, 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:16.360 and when we rolled out, I'm like, oh, these prams, 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:18.559 I'm like, these are our people.

Marley ended up having a sleep. Lola, who 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:43.680 was with Laura, also had a sleep, and both of 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:46.600 them woke up and they were like, are we still walking? 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:49.680 I know where are we? Losca Trooper through the whole thing. 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:51.680 He did so well. 0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:57.160 It was really awesome to see how many different variations 0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:59.200 of families are on it because you've got the twins. 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:00.960 Then then was disco Dad. 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.280 Disco dad who had a DJ deck in a pram 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.640 and his kid next to him, so he's made his 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.720 kid give up his seat for DJ and it was 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:10.800 like techno kid. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.280 In favor of like a five foot high speaker and 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:15.600 he was just like and he's like, Dad, can we 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:17.400 just please turn the music down? And can I sit 0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:17.800 in there pram? 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:22.480 And He's like, no, no, dance but you know there 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:26.080 was like slightly older kid, heaps of fans. I was shocked. 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:27.920 You had the old person trying to run through and 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.640 get a PB and us prams. We're like, it's like 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:32.840 on a highway where like the big semi trailer like 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.680 road trains stick together and block people out. We'd like 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.360 block in runners, not today's son. 0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.680 We will slip streaming behind him. But you know, we 0:15:41.720 --> 0:15:44.120 did walk it with the family, and like I said, 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:47.080 there was so many If you had come to me 0:15:47.160 --> 0:15:50.000 and said we're going to run the City Deserve with 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:53.720 our family, I would have been like to work out. 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:55.960 We were lucky enough to team up with gw AM 0:15:56.280 --> 0:16:00.280 who brought us together. They really they said, look, we've 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:01.480 got an idea for you guys. 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:03.880 We want you guys to break the record. And we 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:05.920 were like, we won't do that, but we'll bring the kids. 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:06.960 And they're like done. 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.760 Yeah. They were like, we really want you guys as 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:13.080 a family to show that it can be done by family. Yes, 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:16.160 and we did it. We successfully did it. I think 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.360 we got halfway. There was a billboard of. 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.440 Us oh yeah, which was that set us back about 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:22.040 twenty minute because wouldn' start getting photos. 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.880 They were like, hey, everyone, look over here, and it 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.000 was huge. I thought it was going to be like 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:29.680 the back of a truck or like a b or 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:31.200 like a bus stop, and it was like, look, I'm 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:33.480 on a bus stop. We were as big as a bus. 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:36.680 I was like, holy, And it's weird because halfway I 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.480 was getting quite tired, very fatigued. The feet were saw 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.640 and nothing spurs you on like a picture of yourself 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:47.880 that's twenty foot wide. It really does give you a boost. 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:49.720 It does. And that got us back. That was at 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:51.240 the top of Heartbreak Hill, wasn't it. 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:53.520 Yes, Oh, which is when we needed it. 0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:54.920 So many broken hearts up there. 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:58.040 And do you know what, I think it's harder to 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.720 walk than it is to run. I've woken up this 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:04.159 morning and the body is very sore. My calves are 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:06.800 very sore. Yeah, the front of my calf. 0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:09.320 I am sore everywhere in places I didn't think I 0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:11.399 was going to be sore. I carried Oscar on my 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:14.359 shoulders for like three or four k's just to give 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:17.520 him a break from the race pram in the luxury 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.960 race ramp, and at that angle, he was like, there's 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:22.600 so many people down here. I didn't even really realize. 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:28.119 But oh yeah, today I was like, oh god, why. 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.000 Now I know how the Olympians feel. 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:34.520 Similar.
