<v Speaker 5>bit as we start the show, we're starting on a

0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 5>more somber note. As you would have heard by now,

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 5>the devastating news came through this morning that our former

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 5>one direction Styly and Pain has passed away today at

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 5>age thirty one. So this on behalf of the pickup

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.319
<v Speaker 5>is our tribute to him.

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 4>Ask Uncut, So Ask Uncut is something we do every Thursday.

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 4>We also do it on Life on Cut on our podcast,

0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 4>and it's where you guys call up. We can deep,

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 4>darker burning questions and we do our best to answer them.

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:59.080
<v Speaker 4>And look, today's one might be a little bit controversial.

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.240
<v Speaker 5>Yes, this is going to be a hit, a nerve

0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 5>for those who love to celebrate the holidays. Kathy joins

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 5>us live today. Hi Kathy, what's going on in your life?

0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 6>Hi? Look, I've got this really big problem. So if

0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:15.119
<v Speaker 6>I had my way, I've had my Christmas decorations up tomorrow,

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 6>but my husband doesn't want them up until Christmas Eve.

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 6>And I'm just not too sure how to fix this dilemma,

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:24.239
<v Speaker 6>and more importantly, how I can win Christmas.

0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:25.639
<v Speaker 2>Eve Christmas dilemma.

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:27.239
<v Speaker 6>Honey, I know it's not right.

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:29.560
<v Speaker 3>This is way too soon.

0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm on your husband's side in that sense, but also

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Christmas Eve is way too late.

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:36.960
<v Speaker 3>That's like neither of these work for me. I disagree.

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 3>I think go for it.

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 4>It's not even Halloween more, I know, but you know what,

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 4>it's Halloween very soon, and you know that it's the second,

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 4>the second that Halloween is ended, all of like your

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 4>David Jones, your coals, you came up, everyone's gonna have

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:50.600
<v Speaker 4>the Christmas decorations ready to go.

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.519
<v Speaker 2>They already are. It's happening, little Marshmallow Santas.

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.840
<v Speaker 3>That's happening for consumerism. They want it, they want your money.

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you should be putting Christmas decorations up

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 1>till maybe, like I don't know.

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:05.519
<v Speaker 3>Four weeks before, five weeks before.

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 5>First of December is when my family has traditionally done it,

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 5>and we always take it down on New Year's Day.

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 2>It's a tradition. It's a month.

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but who says Kathy? I'm with you. You live your

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:15.919
<v Speaker 4>Christmas life. If you are that jolly and that joyful

0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.160
<v Speaker 4>and you want to get some decorations up, go for it.

0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:19.359
<v Speaker 7>What is he? What is he?

0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:20.400
<v Speaker 3>What do you put up?

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:20.560
<v Speaker 7>Like?

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 3>How how hard do you go?

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:25.240
<v Speaker 6>Inside outside? I just really go for it. And I've

0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 6>got a special Christmas T shirt I'd really like to

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:30.560
<v Speaker 6>bring out now, but maybe.

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 2>I think that's too money.

0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Now they've got Christmas jump as it came out, now ya.

0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>They're highly flammable those things.

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 3>That's all right, Well, I mean stay away from it.

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be a bit of a psychic. Y.

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm predicting you're one of those people that instead of

0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 5>taking the Christmas tree down, you just cover it in

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 5>a white sheet and leave it up all year round.

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 3>The whole next year.

0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 6>I've got cats and dogs. They bring it down for me.

0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, because that's insane behavior when people do that.

0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I think find the happy medium.

0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>You've got to keep your husband happy as well, So

0:03:57.040 --> 0:03:58.200
<v Speaker 1>let's just find a happy medium.

0:03:58.240 --> 0:03:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Wait, how long you've you been together? Is just a

0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 2>new marriage.

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 6>We've been together twenty years?

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.520
<v Speaker 2>So do you have this fight every business.

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 6>No, I win most years.

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 4>It is the date getting progressively earlier, Like every year

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 4>you kind of creepy forward and for it's gonna be March,

0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:14.520

<v Speaker 2>Baby.

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 6>I think that's the problem.

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Okay, she's too early. Happy medium be first of

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 2>December for the end.

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 3>Of November, so it's a month before. I think middle

0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:24.440
<v Speaker 3>of November.

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Guys, it's okay, he said, Now you've been vetoed.

0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 3>It's too early.

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Do you make him do it? Is that the problem? Kathy? Like?

0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:31.799
<v Speaker 2>Do you force him to get up the step ladder

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:35.679
<v Speaker 2>and nail in the festjournal? Then maybe hire a hobby

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:36.119

<v Speaker 2>Is compulsory?

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.119
<v Speaker 5>I don't think that's gonna work, Kathy.

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 6>I think that's going down another road. But I'm still

0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 6>feeling like I'm hearing the earliest good.

0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:59.279

<v Speaker 1>Problems Merry Christmas, Cathy.

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 2>It's basically Christmas.

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.800
<v Speaker 3>Pretty much is down. It's the downhill run now of

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:12.200
<v Speaker 3>the year.

0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:15.039
<v Speaker 4>It already feels like I've heard Mariah carry a couple

0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.920
<v Speaker 4>of times. People have started talking about her again, and

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 4>that means it's coming.

0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:19.720
<v Speaker 2>She's defrosting.

0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:21.680
<v Speaker 5>If you've got a Christmas related question now until the

0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:23.320
<v Speaker 5>end of the year, we're only doing Christmas related to

0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:23.800
<v Speaker 5>ask gun.

0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Cuts, Welcome back to Christmas, especially the figure.

0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:28.239
<v Speaker 5>That's not true. But you can dms at the pickup.

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.000
<v Speaker 5>We'll get you on the show that held Kathy Fie Kathy.

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:33.720
<v Speaker 3>Hey, I'm going to flip the vibe here a little bit. Guys.

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm so excited.

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>After the break, we're going to be speaking to someone

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.919
<v Speaker 1>that I think has probably one of the most interesting

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:44.040
<v Speaker 1>and unusual jobs in Australia. I didn't even know this existed.

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>He's the coffin whisperer. His job is to go to

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 1>people's deathbeds, get their last confessions or their instructions for

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:56.200
<v Speaker 1>their funeral, and then carry them out after they've passed away.

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 7>Wow.

0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:58.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I can't wait.

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm a sick o honor joining his necks on the

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 2>pickup I'm a bit.

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Of a sicko Mitch and Laura. That's not a surprise

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to anyone, But I cannot tell you how excited I

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 1>am for this chat that we're about to have. We're

0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:13.240
<v Speaker 1>about to speak to Bill Edgar, who I think has

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:20.920
<v Speaker 1>one of the most interesting, creepy, intriguing, disturbing jobs in Australia.

0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.200
<v Speaker 1>So he's a businessman, he's a counselor, he's an author,

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 1>he's a private detective sure, but the best part is

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 1>he's a coffin confessor. This is what he calls himself.

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Bill's job is to go to people's deathbeds. So people

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:37.680
<v Speaker 1>as they know they don't have much time left, or

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe they do whatever it is they He goes to

0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:44.640
<v Speaker 1>their deathbed and he gets their dying wish and their

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 1>dying confession. So maybe it's something that this dying person

0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 1>wants to happen at their own funeral. Maybe it's just

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>something they want to confess. And Bill has to go

0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>and stand up at the funeral or the grave site

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:57.960
<v Speaker 1>and like and say the confession, Hey, I know Johnny's

0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:01.240
<v Speaker 1>passed away, he's employed me to blah blah blah blah.

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:05.120
<v Speaker 1>And then they get all these secrets out. It's actually insane.

0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I find it so fascinating. He charges ten thousand dollars

0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 1>to do this, and I have so many questions around,

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>like the how, the why, the what the deepest secrets?

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:15.920
<v Speaker 1>So I have got Bill on the phone to have

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 1>a chat toy, Hi Bill, Welcome to the pickup.

0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 7>Hey guys, thanks for having me.

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.560
<v Speaker 3>Hi Bill, Bill. How does one end up.

0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Confessing people's dying last wish?

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:30.480
<v Speaker 7>Oh? You know what, It started as a joke. I

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 7>just told a dying man that I crash his funeral

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:34.680
<v Speaker 7>for him, and he took me up on the offer.

0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 4>When you said you're going to crash his funeral, like,

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 4>why were you crashing his funeral?

0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:38.800
<v Speaker 3>What was the like?

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 4>What was the sentiment behind it that he needed his

0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 4>funeral crashed?

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 7>Oh? I got to meet this gentleman probably eight ten

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 7>weeks before his death, and we were talking about death,

0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 7>the afterlife and everything in between, and I suggested he

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 7>do a eulogy and he said that he'd been through

0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 7>enough funerals where the eulogy isn't played out of disrespect

0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.920
<v Speaker 7>or whatever it is. And I just said, yeah, it

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.200
<v Speaker 7>just as a joke, you know what. Graham I can

0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.600
<v Speaker 7>always crash your funeral for you, mate. And a couple

0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:07.920
<v Speaker 7>of weeks later, I get a text and he says, Bill,

0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.000
<v Speaker 7>You're going to crash my funeral for me, and I'm

0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 7>going to pay you ten grand to do it.

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:13.920
<v Speaker 3>Wow, what a what a fee he put on that

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:14.240
<v Speaker 3>for you?

0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.480
<v Speaker 5>And what was what was it that you crashed? Would

0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 5>you mind telling us, like, what happened? What did you

0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 5>have to say?

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 7>Well, his best mate, while performing the eulogy with his

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 7>crocodile tears to two to three minutes into that eulogy,

0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:32.040
<v Speaker 7>I was to stand up, excuse myself and say to

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 7>the crowd, excuse me. My name's phil Epia. S down,

0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:37.320
<v Speaker 7>shove up or buger off. The man in the coffin's

0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 7>got something to say. And this is what it is,

0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:41.880
<v Speaker 7>you know, best made of mine. You've been trying to

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 7>screw my wife while I'm on my deathbed. And if

0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:50.559
<v Speaker 7>my brother, his wife and their daughter at my funeral,

0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:52.680
<v Speaker 7>they can bugger off too. I haven't seen him in

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 7>thirty years. Their vultures get lost.

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, what happened when you said this?

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.719
<v Speaker 7>Well, yeah, you could hear a pin drop. But at

0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.160
<v Speaker 7>the same time, those that truly loved the man. They

0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 7>knew and understood. And the best mate ob looks, he

0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:14.000
<v Speaker 7>just ran out. He left really quickly. The other three

0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:16.200
<v Speaker 7>that were in attendance, they stood up and they left

0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 7>as well, and a few other people left. I think

0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 7>they thought they were going to get targeted. But it

0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:23.560
<v Speaker 7>was his fill and it is his funeral, so why

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:24.840
<v Speaker 7>not he got to have you stay.

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 4>I wann't know what happened with the wife. I mean,

0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:30.120
<v Speaker 4>was the wife was she still there? Was she did

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:31.760
<v Speaker 4>she get up and leave? Or was she was the

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 4>one who was telling him that this was happening.

0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, she was very grateful for what happened. This this

0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:40.680
<v Speaker 7>so called best mate is no longer in her life

0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 7>or you know, anywhere around them. She was very upset

0:09:45.160 --> 0:09:47.400
<v Speaker 7>about the best mate trying to do what he was

0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:50.079
<v Speaker 7>trying to do. Oh wow. And obviously she didn't want

0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 7>to put too much on her dying husband. But at

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 7>the same time, he could see everything from his bedroom on,

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:57.880
<v Speaker 7>you know. And it was one of those cases that

0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:00.400
<v Speaker 7>when you're lying on your deathbed and you, yeah, you

0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 7>got no energy, you sleep most of the time, you've

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 7>got no confidentation, you've got nothing, and then you needed help.

0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Edgar, is there a line for you? Do you think

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:13.040
<v Speaker 2>to yourself, I want this to be ethical? Is there

0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:15.040
<v Speaker 2>any ethical element to it? Or no? Will you do

0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:16.760
<v Speaker 2>absolutely anything once that, once you've been.

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 7>Paid, I know no, it's definitely ethics and morals and

0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:22.559
<v Speaker 7>my integrity. I mean, look, at the end of the day,

0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 7>I am an investigator. I'd like to investigate everybody's claims.

0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:28.520
<v Speaker 7>I'm very careful. I sit with my clients and we

0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.280
<v Speaker 7>go through everything. I will not act for a third party.

0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:34.320
<v Speaker 7>In other words, if you wanted me to crash your

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 7>mother's or father's here, I can't do that. I can

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:38.080
<v Speaker 7>only crash on behalf of them.

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, hold on, this is very, very exciting.

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 5>Why don't we go to a break you let's get

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.160
<v Speaker 5>some story, some deathbed confession stories.

0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I need more.

0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 2>You're happy to stick around and tell us some after this, Bill,

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 2>absolutely all right, stay there.

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.199
<v Speaker 5>We're back after this with the Coffin Confessor on the

0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:56.120
<v Speaker 5>pickup Britt, Laura and Mitch joined by Bill Edgar. He's

0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:59.000
<v Speaker 5>the Coffin Confessor. He's a counsel as an author, he's

0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:01.840
<v Speaker 5>a businessman, a detective, and he's channeling his work now

0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:04.600
<v Speaker 5>into going to the deathbed of people that are terminally ill,

0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:07.080
<v Speaker 5>getting a secret that they want off their chest, and

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 5>then revealing it to their friends and family.

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 2>In the world.

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Bill, is there ever any requests that someone has

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.040
<v Speaker 1>asked you to do that you've had to put your

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.680
<v Speaker 1>foot down and say I can't do that, that's too far.

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:21.280
<v Speaker 7>It was, but I ended up doing it anyway because

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 7>I am the coffee professor and it was a message.

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:27.400
<v Speaker 7>It was for me to actually be a lady suicide

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:30.800
<v Speaker 7>note and that was confronting. But at the same time,

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.600
<v Speaker 7>there's nothing that was going to stop this lady doing

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:34.160
<v Speaker 7>what she did.

0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 5>Wow, that can be a real tense job. I can

0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.400
<v Speaker 5>only imagine. Tell us one of the craziest confessions that

0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 5>you've ever had to do. Like if you're at a

0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:44.360
<v Speaker 5>pub having a couple of beers and your mates, go,

0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:46.080
<v Speaker 5>tell us us the best story.

0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:46.719
<v Speaker 2>What is it?

0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:49.400
<v Speaker 7>I think I got to say the best story, or

0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:52.000
<v Speaker 7>the most confronting story for me, was going to the

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.160
<v Speaker 7>viewing of the body and pin pricking the body because

0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.080
<v Speaker 7>the person was petrified of being fremated.

0:11:57.120 --> 0:12:00.680
<v Speaker 4>Alight, Oh no, they wanted you to all in check

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:01.760
<v Speaker 4>and make sure they were dead.

0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 3>That's awful.

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 7>Well, that's right. We all have a phobia, we all

0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:08.520
<v Speaker 7>have a fear, and we've all got a skeleton in

0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:10.920
<v Speaker 7>the closet. So it's just one of those jobs that

0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 7>had to be done. So now I'm placing items in coffins,

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:18.760
<v Speaker 7>mobile phone, Soto's jewelry, whatever it is. Plus, I'm delivering

0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 7>gifts from the afterlife, which is a beautiful thing to do.

0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:24.600
<v Speaker 7>I rock up at somebody's house. It could be six seven,

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.520
<v Speaker 7>eight months after somebody's died, on an anniversary of birthday,

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:28.480
<v Speaker 7>and I'm delivering a.

0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:29.800
<v Speaker 3>Gift that's really special.

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.760
<v Speaker 4>Do you find that these people because you're spending time

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 4>with people in the most vulnerable last moments? Do many

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:38.719
<v Speaker 4>people who you've spoken to have regrets or are there

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.320
<v Speaker 4>things that they wish they'd done differently about their life?

0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:44.239
<v Speaker 4>And that's the type of thing that you're enacting or taking.

0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:48.760
<v Speaker 7>Out, you know, I believe we all have that moment,

0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:51.920
<v Speaker 7>you know, especially I noticed it more on the people's

0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:54.720
<v Speaker 7>saft beds that they wish they had more time and

0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:58.800
<v Speaker 7>time to one thing we can't buy, we can't there's

0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.439
<v Speaker 7>nothing we can do. Time. It just comes in the name.

0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 7>So it's really one of those things that people wish

0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:07.840
<v Speaker 7>they had time. But I got to say, everybody that

0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:11.640
<v Speaker 7>I've met who's now no longer alive, they've all said

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:15.400
<v Speaker 7>the same thing as in, they're not the fear of

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:17.679
<v Speaker 7>death is nothing. They don't see your death. What they

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 7>see you is leaving their loved ones behind. That's the

0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:21.720
<v Speaker 7>biggest fear. Yeah.

0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Well, if you had to say the juiciest secret

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.080
<v Speaker 1>that you've had to pass on, what is it?

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:32.120
<v Speaker 7>Oh, the juiciest would have to be the lady who

0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 7>passed away and left me a message to tell her

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 7>son that his sister was his mother grandmother.

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh my my, oh wow, and ten thousand dollars you

0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:46.480
<v Speaker 2>could have that experience.

0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 3>To me, that to me sounds horrible.

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 4>Imagine that being how you find out, like you don't

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 4>need to know that after the fact, is they're going

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.040
<v Speaker 4>to die and take that wish with them. I just

0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:57.839
<v Speaker 4>I wouldn't want to know. I think that's so how

0:13:57.880 --> 0:13:58.880
<v Speaker 4>did you respond to it?

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:01.000
<v Speaker 3>She's like, I'm Grandma's sister.

0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:04.320
<v Speaker 7>I think it's one of those things that you know,

0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:08.440
<v Speaker 7>people can't seem to live or let go of things,

0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 7>and so they hire me to do that for them.

0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 7>At the same time, I've asked many a person that

0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 7>why meet, you know, why not do it yourself, or

0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 7>why not get a friend, and they just have no

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:21.400
<v Speaker 7>trust to or or they just can't do it when

0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 7>it's issues of infidelity, and I find that either revenge

0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.800
<v Speaker 7>people doing it as a revenge thing, or they're coming

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 7>clean and going you know what. So recently I crashed

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:37.360
<v Speaker 7>a fear or where the lady said that she knew

0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:41.040
<v Speaker 7>her husband had been sleeping around and that she decided

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:42.960
<v Speaker 7>to do the same, and he had no idea. But

0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:45.200
<v Speaker 7>when he did find out, he broke down terribly. And

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.680
<v Speaker 7>I said, well, you know what, man, she found out

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 7>you were doing it, and she let it go, but

0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 7>you kept doing it. So now she's done it.

0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 5>You're more so the confrontation expert, right than it is

0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:58.720
<v Speaker 5>the Coffin Confessor. I mean people hate confrontation. I guess
