00:00:12
Speaker 1: Good morning.
00:00:13
Speaker 2: Hello, Amy.
00:00:14
Speaker 3: You're tired.
00:00:15
Speaker 1: I'm a little tired, yeah.
00:00:17
Speaker 2: What'd you do?
00:00:18
Speaker 1: Well, the brekkie thing's a bit new to me, right? Obviously, a few months in.
00:00:23
Speaker 2: Welcome to it.
00:00:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm just trying.
00:00:25
Speaker 4: To test the boundaries, I guess, test the waters, see how late I can stay up.
00:00:30
Speaker 2: Ah, and then still function.
00:00:32
Speaker 4: And still function and not want to cry when my alarm goes off in the morning. I probably pushed it a little too far last night.
00:00:39
Speaker 5: How late?
00:00:40
Speaker 1: It was after 10.
00:00:41
Speaker 2: Oh, no, too late.
00:00:42
Speaker 1: Too late?
00:00:43
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. Mine got to 8.15 and I was freaking out.
00:00:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's huge for you. Aren't you in bed at 7?
00:00:48
Speaker 2: No, 8.
00:00:49
Speaker 1: You're in bed at 8.
00:00:50
Speaker 6: I'm in bed at 8 and I want to be asleep shortly after that.
00:00:54
Speaker 4: Well, I had to take a sleeping aid again last night because I played Nepal on a Wednesday for the Diamonds.
00:01:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's also a Diamonds fan.
00:01:04
Speaker 1: And for Australia, guys. I play netball for Australia.
00:01:06
Speaker 2: Oh, they do that on a Wednesday night at a suburban ground, do they? Yes, they do.
00:01:10
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:01:12
Speaker 4: But our game was at like 7.30. And so then by the time I got home, it was about 8.30. Then I had to have a shower.
00:01:18
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:01:19
Speaker 6: You know what you're going to have to do, Amy, now that you've signed on to do this gig?
00:01:23
Speaker 8: What?
00:01:23
Speaker 2: You're going to have to get rid of your diamonds.
00:01:25
Speaker 7: No, never.
00:01:26
Speaker 2: You can't do things on a weeknight when you do breakfast radio, can you, Sean?
00:01:28
Speaker 7: Never.
00:01:29
Speaker 3: It's impossible.
00:01:31
Speaker 2: It is, right?
00:01:32
Speaker 3: It's impossible.
00:01:32
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:01:33
Speaker 6: I had a dinner last week, I think.
00:01:35
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:01:36
Speaker 6: Even a dinner on a weeknight, I'm usually like, yeah, no.
00:01:38
Speaker 3: You can't do it, hey.
00:01:39
Speaker 2: Well, I did. It was my girlfriend's birthday, so we went out and it was on the Wednesday.
00:01:42
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
00:01:43
Speaker 1: And at nine o'clock, you're like, right, let's go. Let's wrap it up.
00:01:45
Speaker 2: Let's go, people. Yeah. Weeknight dinners, weeknight sporting activities.
00:01:50
Speaker 3: You can do them just real early. You've got to have your weeknight dinner at 4 p.m.
00:01:54
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:01:56
Speaker 4: Sean has an even earlier start than me. I couldn't do Sean's hours.
00:02:00
Speaker 2: Do you have to keep playing for the Diamonds?
00:02:02
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, I play on Friday as well.
00:02:04
Speaker 2: How good is it, by the way, the pub actually thought? He's on the phone. You actually thought she played for the Diamonds, didn't you, buddy?
00:02:12
Speaker 1: I did, yes.
00:02:13
Speaker 4: I didn't realise it was a joke and I was telling people, oh, I work with someone who plays for the Diamonds.
00:02:17
Speaker 3: And my friends were like, no, you don't. You know, that's the national team.
00:02:21
Speaker 4: It's like when I was a paralegal and as a joke, I used to tell, I literally, as a joke, I would say, oh, I'm a lawyer.
00:02:29
Speaker 1: Or on my Instagram posts, I'd hashtag lawyer's life.
00:02:32
Speaker 6: Was it a joke or were you trying to?
00:02:34
Speaker 4: No, it was an actual joke because I was a paralegal. So I was like, well, I'm basically a lawyer. And then all of these people would start contacting my mum and dad. oh, did Amy do a law degree?
00:02:45
Speaker 2: Because what are you going to do to do paralegal?
00:02:47
Speaker 7: Nothing.
00:02:47
Speaker 1: Nothing, no. You can do, well, I didn't go to uni.
00:02:50
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:02:50
Speaker 4: Paralegal is basically like I was, before that I was a TV producer.
00:02:56
Speaker 1: It's just assisting a higher role.
00:02:58
Speaker 4: So I was a producer for my director in TV.
00:03:01
Speaker 6: So you're kind of a lawyer.
00:03:03
Speaker 1: Exactly right. Paralegal, there's legal in there.
00:03:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, legal lawyer.
00:03:09
Speaker 6: Hey, Sean, you're running a story about, Well, young people not moving out.
00:03:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.
00:03:15
Speaker 11: So they reckon half of young Aussies still live with their parents. So 54% of men between the ages of 18 and 29 are still at home right now.
00:03:25
Speaker 3: For women, it's a little lower. That's 45%.
00:03:28
Speaker 2: They move out a bit quicker.
00:03:29
Speaker 6: I think I was at home until I was like, Oh, 27, 28, I finally moved out.
00:03:34
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been surprised if you were still at home.
00:03:36
Speaker 2: I'd go back there now. I mean, no, I wouldn't.
00:03:39
Speaker 6: I spent like a week with him down in our holiday house over Christmas and I was like, that was enough. But there was no, what was the rush? I remember I had a girlfriend at the time.
00:03:48
Speaker 1: Oh, see, I was the opposite.
00:03:49
Speaker 2: She really wanted to move out and I was like, oh. Do we have to?
00:03:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, because you're a boy.
00:03:53
Speaker 1: You've got it so good.
00:03:55
Speaker 4: And your mum was probably washing your clothes and your little undies and cooking your dinner.
00:04:00
Speaker 2: I didn't even want to move out. I'm going back. Mum and dad, I'm coming home.
00:04:04
Speaker 1: I'm coming home. I couldn't get out of there quick enough.
00:04:07
Speaker 2: When did you move out?
00:04:08
Speaker 1: I think I was about... How old would I have been?
00:04:11
Speaker 4: 19?
00:04:11
Speaker 3: Oh, gee.
00:04:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, I moved out with a boyfriend.
00:04:13
Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
00:04:14
Speaker 1: And then I always wanted to be out.
00:04:17
Speaker 4: And then when I was 21, I moved overseas to the UK and lived over there for like two, three years.
00:04:22
Speaker 1: My brothers, though, both, especially my youngest, I don't think he moved out until he was like 29, 30. There you go.
00:04:26
Speaker 2: It's a boy thing.
00:04:27
Speaker 1: I was like, leave mum and dad's home, you freeloader.
00:04:30
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:04:31
Speaker 3: You, Sean? I was 23, I think.
00:04:32
Speaker 8: Oh, okay.
00:04:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're reasonably young, yeah.
00:04:35
Speaker 1: I feel for kids these days, though. Like, cost of living, I get it.
00:04:39
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it's hard.
00:04:39
Speaker 1: I don't know how anyone can move out.
00:04:40
Speaker 6: No, just stay there. Why don't we all still live together? And there's going to be some chaos at Sydney Airport today, which will affect our Melbourne listeners as well. Because it's the biggest airport in the country, so there'll be a flow-on result.
00:04:52
Speaker 3: That's right, yeah. So there's two strikes happening.
00:04:55
Speaker 11: So the ground staff are walking off for the next 24 hours, and then there's security that are walking off for, Two two-hour strikes, 7.30 to 9.30 and then later this afternoon. They reckon that's the one that's going to really impact because obviously they're screening you in and whatnot. But as for delays, right, it depends who you believe at the moment. So the airline's saying, no, there won't be any delays. The airport's saying, yeah, extra travel time. And the unions reckon it'll be chaos.
00:05:20
Speaker 3: Chaos.
00:05:21
Speaker 1: I would love to know if strikes actually work.
00:05:23
Speaker 4: Like, is there a desire?
00:05:26
Speaker 1: Obviously, it's for more pay, right?
00:05:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:05:28
Speaker 1: I'm assuming.
00:05:28
Speaker 2: More pay and conditions or better conditions or whatever.
00:05:30
Speaker 3: Does it ever work?
00:05:31
Speaker 1: Do they ever get their desired outcomes?
00:05:33
Speaker 6: Teachers were doing it for a while there, and they got a pretty good pay rise in New South Wales. Yeah, I think they– 30% or something.
00:05:40
Speaker 1: Oh, that's great.
00:05:40
Speaker 11: I feel like the strike action really starts the movement of like, hey, start paying us, and then usually what I see happening in news and whatnot– is that they might get half.
00:05:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, you meet in the middle.
00:05:51
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:05:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, so like the teachers might have wanted 60%, they ended up getting 30%.
00:05:56
Speaker 4: I'll tell you who should strike. I feel like the people who are the most underpaid are nurses.
00:06:02
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:06:02
Speaker 1: Like they do not.
00:06:03
Speaker 7: Get enough money.
00:06:04
Speaker 2: We'd be in a lot of trouble if they striked.
00:06:06
Speaker 1: Though, wouldn't we? Exactly right. Yeah. We'd be in a lot of trouble if they didn't exist, so why are they so underpaid?
00:06:12
Speaker 2: What about radio announcers, you know? Should we strike? You wake up one morning and all you hear is this.
00:06:20
Speaker 3: Some people might be stoked.
00:06:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, they might enjoy that.
00:06:23
Speaker 1: What an improvement.
00:06:24
Speaker 4: You know, I drove here this morning. Sometimes I listen to my music. Sometimes I talk to my friends. At the moment, I talk to occasionally my parents because they're in the UK. It's their night time. Today I just drove in complete and utter silence.
00:06:37
Speaker 2: Nothing?
00:06:38
Speaker 1: Nothing.
00:06:38
Speaker 2: I can't do that.
00:06:39
Speaker 1: It was actually really nice.
00:06:41
Speaker 4: I normally listen to Sean's news and then I just turn everything off.
00:06:45
Speaker 7: Wow.
00:06:45
Speaker 3: That's nice. Yeah.
00:06:46
Speaker 10: What?
00:06:47
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, the POM's on five to six.
00:06:49
Speaker 6: Don't listen to Alec the POM's Hour of Power.
00:06:52
Speaker 1: What time are you on?
00:06:53
Speaker 3: 5 till 6 a.m.
00:06:55
Speaker 2: Every day.
00:06:55
Speaker 6: Thanks for listening.
00:06:56
Speaker 2: Hey, mate, I heard you this morning.
00:06:59
Speaker 1: I'm going to listen tomorrow for you.
00:07:01
Speaker 6: He did a good little break about a Rubik's Cube.
00:07:04
Speaker 2: Go on, tell everyone you have 10 seconds.
00:07:07
Speaker 3: There's somebody from China. They're six years old.
00:07:09
Speaker 11: They've just broken the world record for the fastest solving of a Rubik's Cube.
00:07:12
Speaker 3: They did it in four and a half seconds. There you go.
00:07:15
Speaker 1: Four and a half seconds, and they're six years old.
00:07:18
Speaker 3: Unbelievable.
00:07:18
Speaker 2: China, if you'd bothered listening, you'd know.
00:07:21
Speaker 6: And you're going to go and see Robbie Williams live for Tradie versus Lady. Still unconfirmed reports that he'll be joining Kylie.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: Don't say it.
00:07:31
Speaker 3: It was somewhere written on Facebook, I believe, Mikey.
00:07:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what we figured out.
00:07:35
Speaker 3: He's taking it and he's running with it.
00:07:36
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like how you drop a joke and then you say the same joke every day.
00:07:42
Speaker 6: For like six months.
00:07:43
Speaker 2: It gets funnier as it goes on, doesn't it?
00:07:44
Speaker 1: Does it? Maybe in your head, yeah.
00:07:48
Speaker 6: You'll all be thanking me when you're watching the AFL Grand Final and Robbie Williams joins Kylie Minogue out there.
00:07:54
Speaker 1: Well, Robbie Williams, if he is joining Kylie, he should just come out and then also do the NRL.
00:07:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, they don't have anyone, do they?
00:08:00
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:08:01
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:08:01
Speaker 2: What's the latest with that, Sean? Still no one?
00:08:04
Speaker 3: Still no one. I'm sure there's plenty of bands ready to go.
00:08:07
Speaker 2: Well, your band. What's your band called again? The Ritzy Kids.
00:08:09
Speaker 1: Why don't we petition to get the Ritzy Kids?
00:08:11
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:08:12
Speaker 2: AFL, NFL.
00:08:13
Speaker 3: We'd do it for a carton of beer.
00:08:15
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:08:15
Speaker 2: You'd do it for nothing. Desperate.
00:08:17
Speaker 1: Have we got contacts at the NRL? Let's get the Ritzy Kids on.
00:08:22
Speaker 6: This company would have some contacts there. Katrina is our lady.
00:08:25
Speaker 10: Good morning.
00:08:27
Speaker 7: Hello, good morning.
00:08:29
Speaker 1: You are a sparky. She's a trainee too.
00:08:32
Speaker 3: I am, yes.
00:08:33
Speaker 2: Oh, so you're the trainee and then James will be the lady.
00:08:36
Speaker 1: No, no.
00:08:37
Speaker 7: Yes, exactly right.
00:08:39
Speaker 4: How is it, are you working, do you work predominantly in quite a male industry, right?
00:08:44
Speaker 1: How's it working with all the dudes?
00:08:46
Speaker 7: Oh, I love it. Like, you know what, they all get around me and help me learn new things, so I love it.
00:08:53
Speaker 2: What are they, are they, they're not creepy or anything?
00:08:56
Speaker 7: For the most part, they're not.
00:08:58
Speaker 6: They're all right.
00:09:00
Speaker 4: I'm sure some of them are, especially if Katrina's a beautiful-looking woman.
00:09:04
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:09:05
Speaker 7: As I am. As you are.
00:09:07
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:09:08
Speaker 1: All right, so you drive a Holden Colorado. Oh, another Holden. Currently single.
00:09:14
Speaker 6: Would you date a guy you met at work, or are you trying to stay away from the tradies?
00:09:19
Speaker 9: Hmm.
00:09:20
Speaker 7: Look, I love a tradie, but maybe not from my work.
00:09:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that's smart. What's that whole thing? You don't shit where you eat?
00:09:27
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:09:28
Speaker 4: Because then if something goes bad, it just makes the whole working environment awkward.
00:09:33
Speaker 2: I haven't always kept to that.
00:09:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. You haven't always kept to that?
00:09:36
Speaker 2: No, not back in the day.
00:09:37
Speaker 1: Well, but that says a lot about you.
00:09:39
Speaker 6: Loved a promo girl from the street team back.
00:09:41
Speaker 1: In the day. Oh, I bet you did.
00:09:43
Speaker 4: And so what happened a few years ago when you were away camping with the girls?
00:09:50
Speaker 7: Yeah, we were camping in New South Wales and it was like 35 degrees. So we were out camping and we were parked next to this water trough. Probably hadn't been used for like five, six years. So it was all like slimy and groggy like you could imagine. But it was so hot. The only way to cool off was literally to just jump in there. And that's what I did. And that's why my friends just love me, because I literally would do anything to cool off.
00:10:21
Speaker 2: Well, you couldn't shower after that, though. There were no showers.
00:10:25
Speaker 7: No, because, yeah, we were just camping, so there was no way to shower, nothing. I literally just, like, for the cows in the paddock.
00:10:35
Speaker 2: For them to drink out of.
00:10:35
Speaker 1: For them to drink, and you've just taken a dip in it.
00:10:39
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:10:40
Speaker 2: Are you a camper, Amy? I can't see you camping.
00:10:43
Speaker 1: I am not a camper.
00:10:45
Speaker 5: No.
00:10:45
Speaker 7: No.
00:10:45
Speaker 4: I actually was playing netball last night. Shout out to Nat if she's listening. She's another girl who plays for the Diamonds. And she was telling me they're going camping for two weeks.
00:10:55
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, like glamping? No, full camping. No, full tents.
00:11:00
Speaker 4: Oh.
00:11:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, full tents.
00:11:01
Speaker 4: And then she was like, you know we travelled around Australia just camping everywhere.
00:11:06
Speaker 6: That'd be good tents, though, wouldn't it?
00:11:08
Speaker 1: For seven months.
00:11:09
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:11:10
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, wow. I just.
00:11:12
Speaker 4: I feel like you're either a camper or you're not. Like my brother and his wife, they love camping. They go to places where there's no electricity, no mobile phone service, no toilets, no nothing. They're digging holes, shitting in the ground. And I was like, you're going to get wolf creaked out there. How will anyone know if you go missing?
00:11:34
Speaker 6: I can do it for like a night or two and then I'm over it. One night actually.
00:11:37
Speaker 1: Also, what about wolves?
00:11:39
Speaker 2: We don't have them in Australia.
00:11:41
Speaker 1: Sorry. What's the thing that took the dingo?
00:11:43
Speaker 10: Yes.
00:11:44
Speaker 1: What about– it's a no from me.
00:11:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see. Very passionate no from you.
00:11:48
Speaker 1: Very passionate.
00:11:50
Speaker 4: All right, Katrina, weighing in at 75 kgs, it's Katrina, the Muddy Menace.
00:11:59
Speaker 2: We are meeting our tradie– well, yeah, another tradie, James. Hello.
00:12:04
Speaker 3: Hi, James.
00:12:04
Speaker 9: Hi.
00:12:07
Speaker 2: Oh, no, I hit the wrong button.
00:12:08
Speaker 4: Hello, mate.
00:12:09
Speaker 5: Hey, James.
00:12:10
Speaker 8: How are you?
00:12:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, good.
00:12:12
Speaker 7: That's all?
00:12:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, mate.
00:12:14
Speaker 6: You're a concreter, married with two kids you got.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: What do you got, boy and a girl?
00:12:19
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:12:19
Speaker 3: Boy, boy, girl, girl?
00:12:21
Speaker 1: Boy and a girl.
00:12:23
Speaker 3: Oh, nice.
00:12:23
Speaker 2: You got a Hyundai Tucson.
00:12:25
Speaker 1: Tucson.
00:12:25
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:12:26
Speaker 6: Now, yesterday, so something happened to you at work. A guy was being a smartass. So what did you do to him?
00:12:32
Speaker 10: Well, a guy who's been a smartass, we backed up the truck and he was behind the chute and we poured concrete in his boots.
00:12:38
Speaker 2: As he was wearing them?
00:12:40
Speaker 1: As he was wearing them.
00:12:41
Speaker 6: Isn't that what the mafia do to murder people?
00:12:45
Speaker 7: Oh, well, that's the trick of the trade. You be cheeky, we fill up your boots.
00:12:50
Speaker 4: How quickly does the cement set? Would he have been able to.
00:12:54
Speaker 1: Tip it out? Oh, no, he'll be able to tip it out, but it was just, yeah. Yeah.
00:12:59
Speaker 7: Not a good feeling for him to start the morning.
00:13:02
Speaker 4: Imagine he put his feet in them and then it just sat around his feet.
00:13:05
Speaker 2: Well, that's the idea. And that is how... Oh, hold on.
00:13:08
Speaker 11: Oh.
00:13:08
Speaker 2: That's how they used to murder people in the mafia.
00:13:12
Speaker 1: What was that?
00:13:12
Speaker 2: You're actually going to put concrete in.
00:13:14
Speaker 3: Your boots and then take you out on a boat and see you later.
00:13:16
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:13:17
Speaker 2: See you later.
00:13:18
Speaker 1: And you'd sink to the bottom.
00:13:21
Speaker 2: You'll be sleeping with the fishes.
00:13:23
Speaker 1: Sleeping with the fishes. Oh, wow.
00:13:27
Speaker 6: Yeah. Weighing in at 75 kilos, it's James the Godfather.
00:13:34
Speaker 2: All right, guys. Good luck. Here we go. Amy's got your questions, mate.
00:13:38
Speaker 1: All right, James. In pregnancy, roughly how long is a trimester?
00:13:49
Speaker 7: I should know this.
00:13:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should. You got two.
00:13:53
Speaker 1: There's three trimesters.
00:13:58
Speaker 2: Give it a go, mate.
00:13:59
Speaker 7: Go on.
00:14:02
Speaker 1: No.
00:14:02
Speaker 6: James.
00:14:03
Speaker 1: I really should have knew that. Where were you when your wife was pregnant?
00:14:08
Speaker 6: Putting concrete in people's boots, not paying attention.
00:14:11
Speaker 4: Three trimesters, most pregnancies are nine to ten months.
00:14:15
Speaker 1: So, yeah, the answer is three months.
00:14:16
Speaker 6: James.
00:14:19
Speaker 3: All right.
00:14:20
Speaker 1: What does the brand CookEye sell?
00:14:23
Speaker 6: Female brand.
00:14:26
Speaker 1: What does the brand CookEye sell?
00:14:31
Speaker 8: Jewelry.
00:14:33
Speaker 1: It's clothes, women's clothing.
00:14:35
Speaker 2: Are you wearing some cook eye right now?
00:14:37
Speaker 1: I'm actually not, no. But they do do really nice stuff. Okay, James, you've got to get this one.
00:14:43
Speaker 4: In what sport would you perform a salchow, an axle and a camel spin?
00:14:51
Speaker 10: What?
00:14:53
Speaker 2: What sport, man? Think of a camel spin.
00:14:56
Speaker 1: An axle.
00:14:57
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:14:57
Speaker 8: An axle. Yeah.
00:15:02
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:15:04
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was.
00:15:05
Speaker 1: All right.
00:15:05
Speaker 2: Well, you got nothing.
00:15:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.
00:15:07
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:15:08
Speaker 6: But, you know, the tiebreaker might happen, so hold in there.
00:15:10
Speaker 2: Just didn't even want to have a guess.
00:15:11
Speaker 1: Figure skating.
00:15:12
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:15:13
Speaker 2: That makes sense.
00:15:14
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:15:15
Speaker 2: All right, Katrina, ready to go?
00:15:16
Speaker 3: Yes, ready.
00:15:19
Speaker 6: Excellent. Let's see if you can do better than that. The Hilux, it's a ute made by who?
00:15:28
Speaker 8: Toyota.
00:15:29
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:15:30
Speaker 2: Well, look, you've done it, basically. It's all over.
00:15:33
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:15:33
Speaker 2: The money matters. Good morning.
00:15:38
Speaker 6: It's Mikey, Amy Gerard for Chemist Warehouse and dead on half past six right now.
00:15:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, a podcaster has weighed in on the jobs that she believes are most likely to cheat. Wait, has weighed in on the jobs she believes are most likely to cheat.
00:15:54
Speaker 2: So, Joy. Yeah, like a job and you're a cheater.
00:15:57
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm assuming. Let's have a listen.
00:16:00
Speaker 4: So Joy from the Living in the Comments podcast, she doesn't trust any of these people that do these jobs.
00:16:07
Speaker 2: Here we go.
00:16:08
Speaker 1: DJs, videographers and photographers, 100%. Chefs, the pressure is too high. In the kitchen, they're talking to them like crap. They need an outlet. And that outlet is cheating.
00:16:18
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:16:18
Speaker 3: Bartenders as well.
00:16:20
Speaker 4: Okay, yes.
00:16:20
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: How could I forget the most important one?
00:16:23
Speaker 9: PT's 1,245%.
00:16:24
Speaker 1: And I've just added this one.
00:16:26
Speaker 3: Cab drivers.
00:16:27
Speaker 1: Cab drivers?
00:16:28
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. No, they would.
00:16:32
Speaker 1: How is a cab driver cheating?
00:16:34
Speaker 6: Well, I remember once I knew this chick and she said she would never pay for a cab.
00:16:40
Speaker 2: And I was like, what?
00:16:41
Speaker 1: She does a runner.
00:16:42
Speaker 2: Oh, she was rough as guts. No, no, no, no runner. She goes, yeah, I just pay with my hairy checkbook.
00:16:48
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
00:16:49
Speaker 2: Pointed.
00:16:51
Speaker 1: No, she doesn't.
00:16:52
Speaker 2: I mean, think about it. Yes, she does.
00:16:54
Speaker 6: But cab drivers are out driving around all the time. They'd have opportunities.
00:16:57
Speaker 1: I must live in some completely different world.
00:16:59
Speaker 4: Like, I'm not even having conversations with my cab drivers, let alone propositioning them with my.
00:17:05
Speaker 1: Hair and shit.
00:17:06
Speaker 6: How good is that?
00:17:07
Speaker 1: I don't think, listen, I.
00:17:10
Speaker 4: Know from experience, from friends and friends of friends, the worst industry for infidelity.
00:17:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is it? Other police. Oh, why?
00:17:23
Speaker 2: What, opportunity?
00:17:24
Speaker 4: Well, I just think it's usually when they're with a partner and there's just so much time.
00:17:30
Speaker 2: Like their police partner?
00:17:32
Speaker 4: Not necessarily their partner, but they've got so much time where they're sometimes just sitting around twiddling their thumbs.
00:17:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, cops don't do much.
00:17:38
Speaker 3: I don't know.
00:17:39
Speaker 1: Don't say that. You'll get trolled, Mikey.
00:17:42
Speaker 4: Or they are having it off with other people in protective services like ambulance officers or fireys and stuff like that.
00:17:51
Speaker 2: Isn't it just all about the opportunities?
00:17:53
Speaker 6: I mean, we go through that one that that woman was talking about, like the list, right? Cab drivers, yeah, I probably do disagree, but I have heard of people paying. It's not really cheating, that's more prostitution. But DJs, you're at a nightclub, right?
00:18:08
Speaker 2: Opportunity, videographer.
00:18:10
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:18:10
Speaker 6: I don't know. You might be surrounded by models, photographers, same thing. Or you'd go to a lot of weddings and you meet people, I don't know, chefs.
00:18:18
Speaker 1: Chefs, I'm a bit curious out on that one.
00:18:19
Speaker 6: I don't know.
00:18:20
Speaker 2: They look too busy to me.
00:18:21
Speaker 9: Yep.
00:18:21
Speaker 10: Bartenders.
00:18:22
Speaker 2: Bartenders for sure.
00:18:24
Speaker 4: I feel like it's anybody who is almost in a position of power, not necessarily like a huge position of power, but like somebody who's making something for you. Maybe it's a drink or somebody who's DJing and you think they're cool.
00:18:37
Speaker 1: Men in uniform, they're kind of hot.
00:18:39
Speaker 2: I get what you're saying.
00:18:41
Speaker 1: One of my cousins is a police officer.
00:18:43
Speaker 2: Cheating all the time?
00:18:44
Speaker 4: No, he's actually single, but he was like the amount of women that proposition me, even when he's like out patrolling. He's up in the Gold Coast. And he's like, he's an attractive man as well.
00:18:55
Speaker 8: Right.
00:18:56
Speaker 1: Throw themselves at him.
00:18:57
Speaker 2: Man in uniforms, a thing too.
00:18:58
Speaker 1: That's right.
00:18:59
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:19:00
Speaker 6: So it's a combination of like the power dynamic that you're talking about.
00:19:04
Speaker 2: And I think just opportunity.
00:19:06
Speaker 6: I mean, if you're Craig and you work in accounts and everyone's boring, you don't see. Yeah.
00:19:11
Speaker 2: You don't get the opportunity.
00:19:13
Speaker 4: Well, you still say, I feel like the most affairs happen in the workplace.
00:19:18
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:19:18
Speaker 4: And a lot of the time it is corporate workplaces because you spend more of your time at work than you do at home sometimes.
00:19:25
Speaker 6: So you want to be with a man that isn't surrounded by women?
00:19:29
Speaker 1: It'd be good to be with a tradie, I reckon.
00:19:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:19:31
Speaker 1: Because he's just on the job site with other men.
00:19:33
Speaker 6: Although we've heard stories before of tradies getting it on with the housewife when they go to fix her air con.
00:19:38
Speaker 4: No, we did not hear any stories of that. No, that's another. You might have seen that on Facebook.
00:19:44
Speaker 3: It's a fantasy of mine.
00:19:47
Speaker 2: Should we, oh, what about doctors?
00:19:50
Speaker 1: Oh, never once.
00:19:53
Speaker 6: Dr.
00:19:53
Speaker 2: Kiss is about to come in.
00:19:54
Speaker 1: Never been propositioned by a patient. Oh, yes.
00:19:58
Speaker 9: Wait, wait.
00:19:58
Speaker 2: Come to the mic.
00:19:59
Speaker 3: Come to the mic.
00:20:00
Speaker 6: Just come in.
00:20:01
Speaker 2: Just come in tonight.
00:20:02
Speaker 8: So it was awesome.
00:20:03
Speaker 10: So I'd just been on in Oxford Street at a sexual health clinic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'd just treated a guy's chlamydia and gonorrhea.
00:20:13
Speaker 3: Okay, both of them.
00:20:14
Speaker 10: And then he walks up to get his results and he stood up, gave me his card and said, anytime you'd like a date.
00:20:21
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:20:22
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not gay for one, but two. You're not gay?
00:20:26
Speaker 7: No.
00:20:26
Speaker 6: But if you were, you're probably not going with the guy that you just helped out with his STDs.
00:20:31
Speaker 1: Well, at least you'd know he'd be clean.
00:20:33
Speaker 3: Well, that's true.
00:20:34
Speaker 2: That is true.
00:20:35
Speaker 3: But no, it was just a no.
00:20:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a hard no.
00:20:38
Speaker 6: What about hospitals, like nurses, surgeons, that kind of stuff? Surely there's a lot of infidelity there.
00:20:44
Speaker 10: Look, I think everybody likes to have fun in a hospital system, that's for sure.
00:20:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. But you're a GP. You're well behaved.
00:20:50
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
00:20:51
Speaker 1: And he's a married man, so yes.
00:20:54
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:20:54
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:20:55
Speaker 2: Well, he's here.
00:20:56
Speaker 6: If you have a medical question for him, let's get him on next, all right? All right, here is Dr. Kearse joining us for your medical questions, 131065.
00:21:05
Speaker 3: Morning, mates.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: Good morning.
00:21:06
Speaker 1: How are you going?
00:21:07
Speaker 2: We are good. You all ready to go?
00:21:08
Speaker 5: Pumped.
00:21:09
Speaker 8: Yes, please.
00:21:10
Speaker 2: Let's get it on. Angela, you're through. Hello.
00:21:12
Speaker 9: Hello.
00:21:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it. You're on with Dr.
00:21:17
Speaker 1: Kearse.
00:21:19
Speaker 3: Dr.
00:21:19
Speaker 7: Kearse. Hi, Angela. Save my life.
00:21:22
Speaker 5: Because I am dating a man who sounds like a tractor.
00:21:29
Speaker 8: Sorry, fell off a tractor.
00:21:30
Speaker 1: No, no, he sounds like a tractor.
00:21:32
Speaker 3: Oh, sounds like a tractor.
00:21:35
Speaker 10: Yes, loud as hell.
00:21:36
Speaker 5: People can hear him in the rooms, in the hallway. And he stops breathing when he's soaring. He's got sleep apnea, but he won't wear that machine.
00:21:48
Speaker 2: Ah, gotcha.
00:21:49
Speaker 6: So you're dating a man with sleep apnea and he won't wear the machine.
00:21:53
Speaker 4: And you're saying that he sounds loud. Is he noisy even when he's not asleep, Angela?
00:21:59
Speaker 9: Oh, yes.
00:22:01
Speaker 8: He snores.
00:22:02
Speaker 5: He's had a blocked nose since the day I started dating him.
00:22:06
Speaker 2: It's not normal to just have a blocked nose all the time, is it, Dr.
00:22:09
Speaker 3: Kitts?
00:22:09
Speaker 10: No, so sleep apnea where you get a lot of snoring, but then you get this blockage of your airways, which then causes you to choke and you lose blood supply to the brain. Can you die? No, not specifically. No, but it links to heart attacks and strokes and all those sorts of things. But yes, some blockage through the nasal passages can lead to increased snoring, regardless of whether or not you've got sleep apnea. And that increased blockage could be coming from allergies, just large turbinates, so the parts of the nose or a big polyp. which is like a little mushroom that grows on the side of the nose. So certainly if there's that chronic congestion, difficulty breathing, generally we start with some saline flushing to help get rid of the snot and it just bathes the lining to get it to work better. And then something like a steroid spray, which helps to shrink the lining down.
00:22:57
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:22:57
Speaker 2: If I do, I do a lot of ocean swimming.
00:23:00
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:23:01
Speaker 6: When I've had a cold before or whatever, I just love jumping in there. Does that help the water clean your nose out?
00:23:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does.
00:23:08
Speaker 10: But you've got to be careful after lots of rain because the water is so dirty. So if you get lots of that in the sinuses, that can be a problem as well.
00:23:15
Speaker 2: Oh, you get an infection.
00:23:17
Speaker 3: All right.
00:23:18
Speaker 2: Jay, you're on with Dr.
00:23:19
Speaker 6: Kearse.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: Hello.
00:23:20
Speaker 8: G'day, guys. Hey, Dr. Kearse. I've been, my eyes have been tested. I still get headaches from watching TV for a while. What can I do to stop those headaches from coming and annoying the crap out of me?
00:23:37
Speaker 10: Yeah, so headaches watching television is relatively common. Vision issues, so getting a lot of eye strain is probably one of the most common ones. If you suffer from migraines, it could be the flicker rate or the bright lights, especially if you're in a dark room, could be triggering things as well. Neck posture, if you sort of slouched on a couch and the neck's in the wrong position. So it's looking at all those sorts of things.
00:24:01
Speaker 2: Okay. What about wearing sunglasses inside?
00:24:04
Speaker 6: Would that help?
00:24:05
Speaker 7: What?
00:24:06
Speaker 2: He's watching TV.
00:24:08
Speaker 1: No. Jay, are you only getting headaches whilst watching TV?
00:24:13
Speaker 8: Yes. So I actually lie down on a couch and watch TV. And, you know, it's been happening to me since I was about 14, 15 years old. And they still cannot figure out what it is. I've had my eyes checked. I don't wear sunglasses to watch TV. But I should be wearing glasses because I've got poor eyesight.
00:24:38
Speaker 2: Oh, there you go. Get your glasses on, mate.
00:24:40
Speaker 10: And it sounds like lying down, you're not in the best posture for your neck as well.
00:24:44
Speaker 2: All right, Declan, you're on with Dr.
00:24:46
Speaker 8: Kiss.
00:24:46
Speaker 2: Hello, Declan.
00:24:48
Speaker 6: How you going, mate?
00:24:49
Speaker 7: Hey, good.
00:24:49
Speaker 2: All right, go for it. What's your question, mate?
00:24:52
Speaker 9: Yeah, my doctor told me I've got microplasia. I'm not actually sure what that means, but I've been sleeping around a bit.
00:25:00
Speaker 2: Okay, so you cut out a bit there.
00:25:03
Speaker 1: Mycoplasma.
00:25:04
Speaker 10: Yep, mycoplasma.
00:25:05
Speaker 3: Do you know what that is?
00:25:07
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:25:07
Speaker 10: Go on, mate. I'm kind of unsure on what it is. Okay, so we've got urethritis, which is where you get an infection of the lining of the old fella or the same issue for the ladies. You can get some burning, stinging of your weed, discharge. Now, the thing is that when you've got these infections, 50% of the time, zero symptoms, which is why they get passed between couple to uncouple. Now, the major ones, chlamydia, gonorrhea... but there's an emerging one called mycoplasma. But a lot of people don't realise that if you've got a cold or a flu, you can give that virus down there with oral sex.
00:25:45
Speaker 7: Yes, okay.
00:25:45
Speaker 4: So is mycoplasma something that can be treated just with antibiotics or.
00:25:49
Speaker 5: Yes.
00:25:50
Speaker 10: One of the challenges, though, is that there is a lot of antibiotic resistance, so you need to hit it hard with a couple of antibiotics and then we need to make sure we do a test of cure a month later because sometimes those antibiotics don't work, so you've got to use another lot.
00:26:04
Speaker 4: And should Declan not sleep with anyone whilst with mycoplasma?
00:26:09
Speaker 10: Certainly shouldn't be sleeping without protection.
00:26:12
Speaker 2: And a dental dam.
00:26:14
Speaker 1: A dental dam, Declan, yep.
00:26:16
Speaker 2: You might need to use a dental dam, Declan.
00:26:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, delightful.
00:26:20
Speaker 2: Have you used one of them?
00:26:22
Speaker 10: Anyone?
00:26:23
Speaker 1: No, I have not. I actually wouldn't even know how to.
00:26:27
Speaker 8: What?
00:26:29
Speaker 1: Use a dental dam.
00:26:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what they are, don't you?
00:26:32
Speaker 1: When you're getting your teeth fixed? So kind of.
00:26:35
Speaker 10: Big bit of latex that you put over the lady and then you have your fun through it.
00:26:41
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:26:41
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:26:42
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:26:42
Speaker 2: They're a thing.
00:26:42
Speaker 3: Oh, they're good.
00:26:43
Speaker 2: But you never heard of them, Sean.
00:26:44
Speaker 3: Never heard of one. Nah.
00:26:46
Speaker 1: So you don't see the lady's face. A dental dam. Yeah, it's for when you get your teeth done.
00:26:51
Speaker 4: No, no, no.
00:26:51
Speaker 10: Yes, but these ones are for down below.
00:26:53
Speaker 3: Oh.
00:26:54
Speaker 7: Dr.
00:26:54
Speaker 2: Kiss and I know what's going on.
00:26:56
Speaker 4: Oh, okay.
00:26:56
Speaker 2: They're not very common, I don't think.
00:26:58
Speaker 10: No. Would they work?
00:26:59
Speaker 3: Why would you use one?
00:27:01
Speaker 1: Why would you use one?
00:27:01
Speaker 2: Well, it'd be like doing safe, well, I'll let the doctor talk.
00:27:04
Speaker 10: Safe oral sex.
00:27:06
Speaker 1: Gotcha.
00:27:07
Speaker 2: Specifically for women.
00:27:09
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:27:09
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:27:10
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:27:10
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah.
00:27:11
Speaker 2: Oh, there we go.
00:27:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I've got some Google. I've got some Google. Oh, look at those curly pubes.
00:27:18
Speaker 2: I wonder who uses them.
00:27:20
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:27:21
Speaker 3: Not sure.
00:27:22
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:27:24
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:27:24
Speaker 2: Well, there you go. Go look that up for yourself. Dr.
00:27:27
Speaker 6: Kiss, thank you, mate.
00:27:29
Speaker 2: You're very welcome.
00:27:29
Speaker 8: Thank you.
00:27:30
Speaker 6: Hey, Amy, you were telling us this silly story about when you were a kid. I need you to explain it on air, okay?
00:27:37
Speaker 4: When I was a young kid, I was picking up blue bottles. And their tentacles are still alive. And me and my brothers were picking them up. Anyway, I must have picked up about 50 and I was popping them with my hands. And their little tentacles had been slapping in between my thighs and all over my stomach.
00:27:55
Speaker 1: Anyway, I was in so much pain. We were camping.
00:27:59
Speaker 4: And then my dad comes over and he's like, right, lay down. He just pulled his old member out. And he's like, this is the best thing for it. And literally did a wee on me. And all I kept thinking was, if somebody was observing this from outside in a car park, this would look so deranged.
00:28:17
Speaker 2: You know, hearing that story is deranged.
00:28:19
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:28:20
Speaker 2: Everyone, can we just look at everyone's face out there?
00:28:23
Speaker 6: You know, it.
00:28:24
Speaker 2: Doesn't work, by the way, Amy.
00:28:26
Speaker 7: Well.
00:28:26
Speaker 2: Because I got done by Blue Bottles about a year ago and I went to the Lifesavers.
00:28:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:28:30
Speaker 6: And no, the Lifesaver didn't just make me lie down and they all weed on me.
00:28:33
Speaker 3: You know what?
00:28:34
Speaker 4: It's an old wives' tale and he thought he was doing the right thing, but I will say it is a memory that has haunted me for my entire life.
00:28:43
Speaker 2: Well, now we're all haunted. Thanks so much, Amy.
00:28:47
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:28:47
Speaker 6: The producers have actually just got Dr Kiss on the phone to confirm urine doesn't actually help the blue bottle sting.
00:28:56
Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
00:28:57
Speaker 7: Hello?
00:28:58
Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning. So, Amy, your dad.
00:29:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, so my dad, when I was about six or seven or something, I was stung by lots and lots of blue bottle tentacles. And back in the day, like this is going back 30 odd years, my dad told me that urine is, it takes the sting out or there's something in urine that helps with the stings.
00:29:24
Speaker 1: And so, yes.
00:29:26
Speaker 2: So he weighed on her?
00:29:28
Speaker 1: So he weed on me. So is there anything in it? Seriously, he weed on you.
00:29:33
Speaker 7: Crikey.
00:29:35
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:29:37
Speaker 5: I'm really sorry, but no.
00:29:38
Speaker 8: Urinating on me.
00:29:40
Speaker 10: Blue bottle thing is not going to do anything for you.
00:29:43
Speaker 4: Just had a golden shower by my dad. I need to go to counselling now.
00:29:46
Speaker 2: I think we all do, yeah? Well, Amy, you're a mum of three.
00:29:54
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:29:54
Speaker 2: You wanted four.
00:29:55
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:29:56
Speaker 2: Maybe good you stopped at three.
00:29:57
Speaker 7: Why?
00:29:58
Speaker 6: New research from the Parenthood have released data. Each kid's costing you $ 37, 000 a year. $ 37, 000 a year.
00:30:06
Speaker 2: I mean, and that's.
00:30:08
Speaker 4: If you're sending them to public schools and stuff. If you're sending them to private schools.
00:30:12
Speaker 6: Well, they're saying this accounts for childcare, food, clothes, education, activities, all of that. So about, let's call it $ 40, 000. Your kids are costing you about $ 40, 000 per child a year.
00:30:24
Speaker 1: And the rest.
00:30:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you reckon you spend the most on when it comes to your kids?
00:30:30
Speaker 4: Um.
00:30:31
Speaker 1: extracurriculum activities, like sports and stuff.
00:30:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not cheap, are they?
00:30:35
Speaker 1: No, like jiu-jitsu, they've just started doing jiu-jitsu.
00:30:39
Speaker 4: And they love it, but it's like $ 70 a week. It's more expensive than a gym membership.
00:30:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, to do that.
00:30:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like some weeks we don't even.
00:30:45
Speaker 4: Get there because there's also soccer and Oztag and netball.
00:30:50
Speaker 1: I spend so much money on food.
00:30:52
Speaker 2: Like my boys are like- What would you spend?
00:30:54
Speaker 6: Because like I can go up to Woolies- Being a single, well, I'm not single, being a man that lives alone, but I can go up to Woolies if I'm not shopping with my girlfriend and it's just me for the week.
00:31:04
Speaker 2: I reckon I can spend like 60 bucks and I'm done.
00:31:06
Speaker 1: In a week?
00:31:07
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:31:08
Speaker 1: A whole week?
00:31:09
Speaker 2: Well, you've seen what I've eaten. Sultanas, almonds, a couple of dinners, done.
00:31:14
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:31:16
Speaker 2: I live alone.
00:31:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I'm just trying to work out how are you making seven dinners a week?
00:31:21
Speaker 3: Lunches.
00:31:22
Speaker 2: That's a lot of takeaway.
00:31:25
Speaker 1: I would spend upwards of $ 500. On groceries?
00:31:27
Speaker 6: Easy.
00:31:29
Speaker 4: Just fruit alone, I'm spending like $ 100 every four days. My kids will power. They're having so much fruit in their lunchboxes. They're crunch and sip. They have fruit for breakfast. They have fruit when they get home.
00:31:42
Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Don't even get started on packets of chips.
00:31:45
Speaker 6: $ 500 a week.
00:31:47
Speaker 1: I think you'll find that's pretty normal.
00:31:49
Speaker 2: I don't know.
00:31:50
Speaker 1: Family of five.
00:31:51
Speaker 2: I've never shopped for a family of five.
00:31:52
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah.
00:31:53
Speaker 2: Hey, I've got a solution for you.
00:31:55
Speaker 1: You know what else as well? Just quickly.
00:31:57
Speaker 2: Close.
00:31:58
Speaker 4: My kids grow so quickly. So like you'll buy them a whole set of, You buy them brand new shoes. Six months later, they need new shoes. You buy them size H t-shirts. All of a sudden, they need size 10.
00:32:08
Speaker 8: Right.
00:32:08
Speaker 6: Well, I got solutions, right? And not just you, all parents listening. I've been thinking about it as you were talking.
00:32:14
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear them.
00:32:16
Speaker 8: Right.
00:32:16
Speaker 2: So this is all the expensive stuff, right?
00:32:18
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:32:18
Speaker 2: Childcare. That should be free. I'm not even being silly.
00:32:22
Speaker 6: Sorry? No, the government should have provided free childcare. Your kid gets to go to school for free from what? $ 5, 000?
00:32:29
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:32:29
Speaker 6: Childcare should be free. They've even talked about it, but I firmly believe. Why don't we have in a public school, have another room where it's childcare? Problem solved.
00:32:39
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
00:32:40
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:32:40
Speaker 2: So I'm going with that.
00:32:41
Speaker 5: Food.
00:32:41
Speaker 3: I don't know.
00:32:42
Speaker 2: Just get some home brand stuff. Leftovers. Whatever the parents eat, they can have leftovers. We'll go with that.
00:32:47
Speaker 5: Clothes.
00:32:48
Speaker 2: Here's a big one.
00:32:49
Speaker 1: Are you going to feed your baby steak?
00:32:51
Speaker 2: Little bits of it, just ground it up or something.
00:32:53
Speaker 1: Oh, here you go, six-month-old, have a chicken snitty.
00:32:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, ground up, mushed up.
00:32:56
Speaker 1: And a Caesar salad.
00:32:58
Speaker 2: So that's good.
00:32:58
Speaker 6: So I've solved your expensive food there.
00:33:00
Speaker 3: Sure.
00:33:01
Speaker 8: Clothes.
00:33:02
Speaker 6: Why don't kids just wear, like, garbage bags and hand-me-downs and stuff? Like, does a three-year-old really need designer clothes?
00:33:08
Speaker 1: Thank God you're not a parent.
00:33:10
Speaker 6: They could just wear a raincoat that you got from Lowe's or something.
00:33:15
Speaker 1: Why don't kids wear garbage bags?
00:33:18
Speaker 3: They could.
00:33:19
Speaker 1: Maybe because they could suffocate in them?
00:33:21
Speaker 6: No.
00:33:21
Speaker 1: Sweat profusely?
00:33:24
Speaker 2: Education. Free public school.
00:33:26
Speaker 6: Don't play those. What are those nominal fees or whatever? Like you've got to pay a fee?
00:33:31
Speaker 2: You don't have to, do you?
00:33:32
Speaker 1: No, you don't in public schools.
00:33:33
Speaker 2: There you go. Education's free. Activities. Here's a stick.
00:33:37
Speaker 4: What?
00:33:38
Speaker 2: Go down the bush.
00:33:39
Speaker 1: Here's a stick.
00:33:40
Speaker 2: Play with a stick.
00:33:42
Speaker 1: Problem solved.
00:33:43
Speaker 4: You can offload those kind of things when they're toddlers. You can give them pots and pans and stuff.
00:33:47
Speaker 6: Yeah, there we go.
00:33:48
Speaker 1: There's shortcuts. But when you've got an eight-year-old.
00:33:51
Speaker 4: And all his friends are doing jiu-jitsu and playing soccer, a stick's not going to cut it, Mikey.
00:33:56
Speaker 6: Well, if every parent got together and it's like, we don't do these activities anymore.
00:34:00
Speaker 2: We do sticks. Problem solved. What do you think, Sean?
00:34:04
Speaker 3: I don't know. My son's 16 months old. If I gave him a sticky poke, he'd poke his eye out.
00:34:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I tried. You were actually giving your son a weapon at that point.
00:34:13
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:34:14
Speaker 2: Hey, Jenny's just called in.
00:34:15
Speaker 6: Morning.
00:34:16
Speaker 1: Hey, Jenny.
00:34:17
Speaker 5: Good morning.
00:34:18
Speaker 1: Hi.
00:34:19
Speaker 7: Where are you guys from?
00:34:21
Speaker 5: Because I've got two boys, both of whom are in daycare. This kid cost me $ 41, 000 in daycare fees.
00:34:29
Speaker 6: Well, you might want to spend some of that money getting a new phone because I can barely hear you. But it comes from... The research comes from the parenthood. The poem was deep diving into this this morning.
00:34:40
Speaker 1: It's not.
00:34:41
Speaker 2: It's not bull crap, is it?
00:34:42
Speaker 3: No, they're legit. They're a campaigning organisation. They seem to know their stuff.
00:34:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Jenny's saying what more?
00:34:49
Speaker 1: 100%. I even thought the same thing.
00:34:51
Speaker 4: $ 37, 000 a year per kid.
00:34:55
Speaker 1: That's cheap as chips. It is so much more expensive.
00:34:58
Speaker 2: What do you reckon it would be?
00:35:02
Speaker 5: Oh, as I said, I pay $ 160 a day for each kid.
00:35:07
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:35:07
Speaker 5: And my kids don't get new clothes. They're lucky they have nephews.
00:35:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, hand-me-downs. Yeah.
00:35:13
Speaker 4: So Jenny's paying $ 41, 000 per kid just for daycare.
00:35:16
Speaker 2: Daycare, yeah.
00:35:17
Speaker 4: That's not including food, new clothes, God forbid, birthday presents and.
00:35:22
Speaker 2: Stuff like that. Garbage bags, sticks, yeah. Hey, are you with me then? On a serious note, childcare should be free. Should it not?
00:35:29
Speaker 4: I think everyone would take the piss a little bit.
00:35:33
Speaker 2: Okay, how about this? It should be free if you work.
00:35:36
Speaker 4: It's subsidised accordingly based on your income.
00:35:39
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:35:40
Speaker 4: So people who aren't earning a whole lot of money, they end up paying $ 12 for childcare.
00:35:45
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:35:46
Speaker 6: But why is it okay for it to be free from when they're five, but it's not okay to be free when they're under five?
00:35:52
Speaker 4: But I think a lot of people would just, you'd just find child cares, they'd just be inundated because people would be like, oh, cool, someone to look after my kid for free.
00:36:00
Speaker 9: Right.
00:36:01
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:36:01
Speaker 2: What's the problem with that?
00:36:04
Speaker 1: Think of the child care workers.
00:36:06
Speaker 2: I'll pay him more.
00:36:08
Speaker 6: I don't know.
00:36:08
Speaker 1: Well, there's another, yeah. Pay him more.
00:36:11
Speaker 6: Your tax dollars with all your social media influencing will tax you more.
00:36:15
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:36:16
Speaker 1: And you, Mikey, you professional radio host. Let's tax Mikey.
00:36:19
Speaker 2: Let's not do that.
00:36:20
Speaker 9: Hello.
00:36:20
Speaker 2: Good morning. You are on.
00:36:22
Speaker 3: Hello.
00:36:23
Speaker 2: Mikey, Amy Gerard. Hey, if your husband died.
00:36:27
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:36:28
Speaker 2: How long until you're dating again?
00:36:32
Speaker 1: Oh, not for ages.
00:36:33
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:36:34
Speaker 1: Also, I've got three kids.
00:36:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, true.
00:36:36
Speaker 1: Probably wouldn't bother.
00:36:38
Speaker 6: So there's this podcast, Voices of Brooklyn. They were talking about it. This host, Patrick, he's got a rule. It is morbid, but have a listen.
00:36:45
Speaker 9: You've got to give me at least a year, right?
00:36:48
Speaker 6: At least.
00:36:49
Speaker 9: Because, bro, I'm dead. Like, are you kidding me? Like, give me a... Unless she killed you and that's the case. But if I die on you, girl, you better be.
00:36:59
Speaker 2: You better be so sad.
00:37:01
Speaker 6: If I die on you, girl.
00:37:02
Speaker 2: I'll haunt your ass, I swear to God. And I mean.
00:37:05
Speaker 9: Like, I get it. You got to move on. I don't want you to wear a black veil for your whole life. But you got to give me a year.
00:37:11
Speaker 2: So he reckons a year.
00:37:13
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, look, you'd have some questions if.
00:37:17
Speaker 4: Your partner drops dead, and then a couple of weeks later, you're out on the dating scene again.
00:37:22
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:37:22
Speaker 6: I feel it also depends on the age, right? Like, I'm sure if one of my parents died, they're not going to date again. Yeah. Once you're retired and in your 70s and stuff.
00:37:31
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe.
00:37:32
Speaker 1: Okay, if they did. So, oh, my God.
00:37:35
Speaker 2: What if dad all of a sudden went to Pattaya in Thailand?
00:37:39
Speaker 1: What are you going there for, Dad? Yeah, his next wife.
00:37:42
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:37:42
Speaker 1: My grandma, the dirty dog, my grandpa.
00:37:45
Speaker 3: Well, actually, no.
00:37:46
Speaker 1: So my grandpa had a stroke.
00:37:48
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:37:49
Speaker 4: And then he was like a vegetable, so alive in his own body, which was horrendous.
00:37:53
Speaker 2: Poor thing. Was he in a home or something?
00:37:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was.
00:37:56
Speaker 4: But he had a stroke but lost all mobility, basically. Couldn't even swallow for two years. So he was just like a vegetable.
00:38:02
Speaker 2: Awful.
00:38:03
Speaker 3: Horrendous.
00:38:03
Speaker 1: Anyway.
00:38:05
Speaker 4: He passed away and literally within two months my grandma was on a cruise ship with their family friend, Peter Roth, sharing a room.
00:38:17
Speaker 10: Oh, scandal.
00:38:18
Speaker 1: And I was like, what?
00:38:19
Speaker 7: What?
00:38:20
Speaker 1: And she said, because I was like, what on earth is she doing?
00:38:25
Speaker 4: And my mum was like, oh, no, it's just companionship because his wife had also passed on.
00:38:31
Speaker 7: But.
00:38:32
Speaker 2: Were you judging her?
00:38:33
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. I was rooting for her. I was like, get it, girl. She'd only ever been with my grandpa. So I was like, it's nice, a bit of variety.
00:38:41
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:38:42
Speaker 6: And I know it's awful, but she did have two years in a way without him.
00:38:46
Speaker 4: And even my mum was like, we basically, whilst he was still there, he was gone.
00:38:50
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:38:51
Speaker 1: So, like, we'd lost him two years ago.
00:38:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
00:38:53
Speaker 1: But, yeah, they had the funeral.
00:38:55
Speaker 2: But, yeah. Good on your nan.
00:38:56
Speaker 1: Eight weeks, yeah. She was going out on the cruise getting some.
00:38:58
Speaker 2: You reckon they were doing it?
00:38:59
Speaker 1: Oh, no, they were.
00:39:00
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:39:01
Speaker 1: They came out and stayed with us once, and my mum was like, oh, it's so disgusting.
00:39:05
Speaker 2: Well, you heard them.
00:39:06
Speaker 1: She could hear them. They both had their little Viagra pills. He had his Stiffy pills. I don't know what she took.
00:39:12
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:39:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no female one for that, is there?
00:39:14
Speaker 7: What?
00:39:15
Speaker 1: Surely there would be.
00:39:16
Speaker 7: No?
00:39:17
Speaker 2: No, they haven't come up with one, I don't think.
00:39:18
Speaker 1: Maybe just HRT or something.
00:39:20
Speaker 7: Oh, no.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: Human. H. Human. Nah. It's the hormone replacement therapy.
00:39:26
Speaker 2: Oh, gotcha.
00:39:27
Speaker 1: It's what women get when they're going through menopause.
00:39:28
Speaker 2: Menopause.
00:39:29
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
00:39:30
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:39:30
Speaker 2: Well, good on you, Nan. It's good to think of her sex life.
00:39:32
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:39:33
Speaker 6: Last calls now. 131065. Call in Angie.
00:39:36
Speaker 2: Hello, Angie.
00:39:37
Speaker 4: Hi.
00:39:38
Speaker 9: Hi.
00:39:39
Speaker 2: Welcome. What do you want to chat about?
00:39:43
Speaker 5: I heard earlier that you guys were talking about unloyal people in specific work industry.
00:39:49
Speaker 1: Oh, yes.
00:39:50
Speaker 4: Well, there was a podcaster in the UK and she listed off an array of jobs where she feels like the people are the.
00:39:57
Speaker 6: Most likely to cheat. Yeah, like DJs was on there.
00:40:01
Speaker 1: PTs.
00:40:02
Speaker 3: Taxi drivers.
00:40:03
Speaker 2: Cab drivers.
00:40:04
Speaker 1: Cab drivers is weird.
00:40:05
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:40:06
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:40:07
Speaker 5: Well, I'm a DJ and I'm a very warm person.
00:40:10
Speaker 1: In my opinion. Do you have a partner? I do, yeah. Does he worry about you getting hit up?
00:40:17
Speaker 7: Yes, he does. He does.
00:40:19
Speaker 1: Maybe he's listening to this chick's podcast.
00:40:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, right. How old are you?
00:40:23
Speaker 10: 21.
00:40:24
Speaker 2: You're a 21-year-old DJ.
00:40:25
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.
00:40:26
Speaker 2: I reckon your boyfriend should be worried. I mean, come on. There's a lot of dudes out there in the clubs, yeah?
00:40:32
Speaker 1: In the clubs.
00:40:33
Speaker 7: Yeah, there is.
00:40:33
Speaker 5: Like, I get it, but like... So after I play a set, like, sometimes I'll have, like, guys come up to me and be like, yo, that was like a mad set.
00:40:41
Speaker 1: Oh, my God. And I'm like, okay, thanks.
00:40:42
Speaker 5: And then I just move on.
00:40:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
00:40:45
Speaker 4: But maybe you just haven't been approached by a guy who's super attractive or that.
00:40:50
Speaker 1: You're into yet.
00:40:51
Speaker 5: Well, like, there is attractive guys out there, but my boyfriend's more attractive.
00:40:54
Speaker 1: Oh, that's cute.
00:40:55
Speaker 2: I think the women are just better.
00:40:56
Speaker 6: A male DJ, a male 21-year-old DJ wouldn't be able to help himself.
00:41:01
Speaker 1: No, the amount of.
00:41:02
Speaker 4: opportunity that would present itself because women love a DJ.
00:41:07
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:41:08
Speaker 2: You're a good chick, Angie.
00:41:09
Speaker 1: Good girl, Angie. Stay loyal.
00:41:11
Speaker 2: All right. What about Beck?
00:41:12
Speaker 3: Hello?
00:41:13
Speaker 1: Hey, Beck.
00:41:15
Speaker 8: Hi.
00:41:15
Speaker 5: How are we?
00:41:16
Speaker 3: Good.
00:41:16
Speaker 1: How are you?
00:41:18
Speaker 5: Good. I was actually calling regarding the cost of children.
00:41:21
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
00:41:23
Speaker 6: $ 35, 000 a year according to the Parenthood Institute or something like that.
00:41:26
Speaker 3: That's rubbish.
00:41:26
Speaker 2: You're saying it's way more, Amy.
00:41:28
Speaker 7: Oh, 100%.
00:41:28
Speaker 1: It's more. What about you, Bec? Do you agree?
00:41:31
Speaker 5: Yeah, 100%. It's not just daycare that people are putting in. I've got one in daycare and an older one who.
00:41:37
Speaker 7: Does after-school activities. So there's football and there's guitar and swimming lessons. Yep. And not only that, you have to take time off work. Yep.
00:41:47
Speaker 8: So therefore you're not.
00:41:47
Speaker 7: Bringing in as much money to do these activities.
00:41:51
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:41:51
Speaker 4: I always say like obviously radio is quite good because you get survey breaks roughly around school holidays.
00:41:58
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:41:58
Speaker 4: Like they somewhat line up. And before that I was doing my own thing so I had the flexibility. But how do office workers, like a nine to five traditional job, With two parents working, what do they do for school holidays?
00:42:10
Speaker 1: Like, kids get 10, 11 weeks off school.
00:42:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you handle them?
00:42:13
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you how you handle them. You have to put them in bloody vacation care.
00:42:17
Speaker 2: Which costs more money. And it all costs money. Why don't you just buy them gaming consoles?
00:42:22
Speaker 1: And what, leave them at home?
00:42:23
Speaker 6: They're 6 and 7. CCTV.
00:42:25
Speaker 1: They're 6 and 7.
00:42:26
Speaker 2: CCTV in a room. Lock the room.
00:42:29
Speaker 1: This is, like, I hope to God you actually never have children. Yours are going to be in.
00:42:33
Speaker 4: Garbage bags, poking each other's eyes out with sticks.
00:42:37
Speaker 1: Eating schnitzel at two months old.
00:42:40
Speaker 2: Liza, hello. Hey, Liza.
00:42:41
Speaker 5: Hi, good morning, Marky. Good morning, Amy.
00:42:44
Speaker 6: Hi, good morning.
00:42:45
Speaker 2: What do you want to talk about?
00:42:46
Speaker 5: You were talking about how long should you wait between a partner passing and moving on.
00:42:52
Speaker 3: Oh, yes.
00:42:53
Speaker 6: A year was kind of the rule, but, you know, it depends, right?
00:42:59
Speaker 5: Well, my partner's been gone three years. I started trying to get on the apps. probably the end of last year, currently gave up just so hard.
00:43:08
Speaker 3: I know.
00:43:10
Speaker 5: But also for me, I've lost two partners in six years.
00:43:13
Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Oh, Liza, that's so sad.
00:43:16
Speaker 2: For all different reasons, obviously, Liza.
00:43:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was in a long-distance relationship with a gentleman in America, and I was getting ready to move over to America. And in August 2020, I had a massive heart attack, passed away. So with COVID, I couldn't travel, I couldn't say goodbye, nothing.
00:43:32
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so tragic.
00:43:34
Speaker 5: And then I met, reconnected with a gentleman that I'd known basically all my life, and he then... In 22 was diagnosed with cancer and then caught COVID pneumonia and I lost him in 2023.
00:43:47
Speaker 2: Wow. But you are willing to date again?
00:43:52
Speaker 5: I'm willing to date again, but the thing I find is because I'm a night shift worker and I work weekends, it's another burden. So not only have you got.
00:44:02
Speaker 4: You almost need to find a male who's a night shift worker, right? Because otherwise you've got just completely conflicting job hours.
00:44:13
Speaker 6: Good luck with finding someone. I know you said, Amy, though, if Ryan passed away, you just wouldn't date. You'd date, but you wouldn't remarry.
00:44:19
Speaker 1: I wouldn't remarry, yeah.
00:44:20
Speaker 2: You'd just have a toy boy.
00:44:22
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:44:23
Speaker 2: Real hot one?
00:44:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
00:44:24
Speaker 9: Young?
00:44:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, massage my feet.
00:44:26
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:44:27
Speaker 1: Feed me dinner.
00:44:28
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:44:28
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:44:29
Speaker 2: Do things. But there's no love there.
00:44:31
Speaker 1: Use a dental dam.
00:44:32
Speaker 3: I'm joking.
00:44:35
Speaker 6: Throwback from an earlier comment on the show.
00:44:37
Speaker 1: I just wanted to drop that in there now that I know what it is.
00:44:40
Speaker 2: They're fun, aren't they?
00:44:41
Speaker 10: Are they?
00:44:43
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know.
00:44:44
Speaker 2: Well, no, they're not fun.
00:44:45
Speaker 3: I had to Google them.
00:44:46
Speaker 2: Did you look them up?
00:44:47
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:44:48
Speaker 1: I had to Google them as well. And then, yes, very weird.
00:44:52
Speaker 2: I don't know who uses them, but they're a thing.
00:44:54
Speaker 6: Dr.
00:44:54
Speaker 2: Kiss was talking about them. We're not being inappropriate. It's health. We're talking about women's health. Yes, this is the health advice.
00:45:00
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:45:00
Speaker 1: The dental dams are for the teeth anyway.
00:45:02
Speaker 6: He told one of our callers to use a dental dam. Go back and have a listen to the podcast.
00:45:07
Speaker 1: Did he?
00:45:08
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kiss Breakfast Podcast. Go and search it. You can hear it.
00:45:11
Speaker 2: He did.
00:45:11
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, because they had mycoplasma.
00:45:13
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he said you should use a dental dam.
00:45:15
Speaker 1: No, he did not. He said practice safe sex.

Speaker 1: Good morning.
00:00:13
Speaker 2: Hello, Amy.
00:00:14
Speaker 3: You're tired.
00:00:15
Speaker 1: I'm a little tired, yeah.
00:00:17
Speaker 2: What'd you do?
00:00:18
Speaker 1: Well, the brekkie thing's a bit new to me, right? Obviously, a few months in.
00:00:23
Speaker 2: Welcome to it.
00:00:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm just trying.
00:00:25
Speaker 4: To test the boundaries, I guess, test the waters, see how late I can stay up.
00:00:30
Speaker 2: Ah, and then still function.
00:00:32
Speaker 4: And still function and not want to cry when my alarm goes off in the morning. I probably pushed it a little too far last night.
00:00:39
Speaker 5: How late?
00:00:40
Speaker 1: It was after 10.
00:00:41
Speaker 2: Oh, no, too late.
00:00:42
Speaker 1: Too late?
00:00:43
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. Mine got to 8.15 and I was freaking out.
00:00:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's huge for you. Aren't you in bed at 7?
00:00:48
Speaker 2: No, 8.
00:00:49
Speaker 1: You're in bed at 8.
00:00:50
Speaker 6: I'm in bed at 8 and I want to be asleep shortly after that.
00:00:54
Speaker 4: Well, I had to take a sleeping aid again last night because I played Nepal on a Wednesday for the Diamonds.
00:01:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's also a Diamonds fan.
00:01:04
Speaker 1: And for Australia, guys. I play netball for Australia.
00:01:06
Speaker 2: Oh, they do that on a Wednesday night at a suburban ground, do they? Yes, they do.
00:01:10
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:01:12
Speaker 4: But our game was at like 7.30. And so then by the time I got home, it was about 8.30. Then I had to have a shower.
00:01:18
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:01:19
Speaker 6: You know what you're going to have to do, Amy, now that you've signed on to do this gig?
00:01:23
Speaker 8: What?
00:01:23
Speaker 2: You're going to have to get rid of your diamonds.
00:01:25
Speaker 7: No, never.
00:01:26
Speaker 2: You can't do things on a weeknight when you do breakfast radio, can you, Sean?
00:01:28
Speaker 7: Never.
00:01:29
Speaker 3: It's impossible.
00:01:31
Speaker 2: It is, right?
00:01:32
Speaker 3: It's impossible.
00:01:32
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:01:33
Speaker 6: I had a dinner last week, I think.
00:01:35
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:01:36
Speaker 6: Even a dinner on a weeknight, I'm usually like, yeah, no.
00:01:38
Speaker 3: You can't do it, hey.
00:01:39
Speaker 2: Well, I did. It was my girlfriend's birthday, so we went out and it was on the Wednesday.
00:01:42
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
00:01:43
Speaker 1: And at nine o'clock, you're like, right, let's go. Let's wrap it up.
00:01:45
Speaker 2: Let's go, people. Yeah. Weeknight dinners, weeknight sporting activities.
00:01:50
Speaker 3: You can do them just real early. You've got to have your weeknight dinner at 4 p.m.
00:01:54
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:01:56
Speaker 4: Sean has an even earlier start than me. I couldn't do Sean's hours.
00:02:00
Speaker 2: Do you have to keep playing for the Diamonds?
00:02:02
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, I play on Friday as well.
00:02:04
Speaker 2: How good is it, by the way, the pub actually thought? He's on the phone. You actually thought she played for the Diamonds, didn't you, buddy?
00:02:12
Speaker 1: I did, yes.
00:02:13
Speaker 4: I didn't realise it was a joke and I was telling people, oh, I work with someone who plays for the Diamonds.
00:02:17
Speaker 3: And my friends were like, no, you don't. You know, that's the national team.
00:02:21
Speaker 4: It's like when I was a paralegal and as a joke, I used to tell, I literally, as a joke, I would say, oh, I'm a lawyer.
00:02:29
Speaker 1: Or on my Instagram posts, I'd hashtag lawyer's life.
00:02:32
Speaker 6: Was it a joke or were you trying to?
00:02:34
Speaker 4: No, it was an actual joke because I was a paralegal. So I was like, well, I'm basically a lawyer. And then all of these people would start contacting my mum and dad. oh, did Amy do a law degree?
00:02:45
Speaker 2: Because what are you going to do to do paralegal?
00:02:47
Speaker 7: Nothing.
00:02:47
Speaker 1: Nothing, no. You can do, well, I didn't go to uni.
00:02:50
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:02:50
Speaker 4: Paralegal is basically like I was, before that I was a TV producer.
00:02:56
Speaker 1: It's just assisting a higher role.
00:02:58
Speaker 4: So I was a producer for my director in TV.
00:03:01
Speaker 6: So you're kind of a lawyer.
00:03:03
Speaker 1: Exactly right. Paralegal, there's legal in there.
00:03:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, legal lawyer.
00:03:09
Speaker 6: Hey, Sean, you're running a story about, Well, young people not moving out.
00:03:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.
00:03:15
Speaker 11: So they reckon half of young Aussies still live with their parents. So 54% of men between the ages of 18 and 29 are still at home right now.
00:03:25
Speaker 3: For women, it's a little lower. That's 45%.
00:03:28
Speaker 2: They move out a bit quicker.
00:03:29
Speaker 6: I think I was at home until I was like, Oh, 27, 28, I finally moved out.
00:03:34
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been surprised if you were still at home.
00:03:36
Speaker 2: I'd go back there now. I mean, no, I wouldn't.
00:03:39
Speaker 6: I spent like a week with him down in our holiday house over Christmas and I was like, that was enough. But there was no, what was the rush? I remember I had a girlfriend at the time.
00:03:48
Speaker 1: Oh, see, I was the opposite.
00:03:49
Speaker 2: She really wanted to move out and I was like, oh. Do we have to?
00:03:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, because you're a boy.
00:03:53
Speaker 1: You've got it so good.
00:03:55
Speaker 4: And your mum was probably washing your clothes and your little undies and cooking your dinner.
00:04:00
Speaker 2: I didn't even want to move out. I'm going back. Mum and dad, I'm coming home.
00:04:04
Speaker 1: I'm coming home. I couldn't get out of there quick enough.
00:04:07
Speaker 2: When did you move out?
00:04:08
Speaker 1: I think I was about... How old would I have been?
00:04:11
Speaker 4: 19?
00:04:11
Speaker 3: Oh, gee.
00:04:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, I moved out with a boyfriend.
00:04:13
Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
00:04:14
Speaker 1: And then I always wanted to be out.
00:04:17
Speaker 4: And then when I was 21, I moved overseas to the UK and lived over there for like two, three years.
00:04:22
Speaker 1: My brothers, though, both, especially my youngest, I don't think he moved out until he was like 29, 30. There you go.
00:04:26
Speaker 2: It's a boy thing.
00:04:27
Speaker 1: I was like, leave mum and dad's home, you freeloader.
00:04:30
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:04:31
Speaker 3: You, Sean? I was 23, I think.
00:04:32
Speaker 8: Oh, okay.
00:04:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're reasonably young, yeah.
00:04:35
Speaker 1: I feel for kids these days, though. Like, cost of living, I get it.
00:04:39
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it's hard.
00:04:39
Speaker 1: I don't know how anyone can move out.
00:04:40
Speaker 6: No, just stay there. Why don't we all still live together? And there's going to be some chaos at Sydney Airport today, which will affect our Melbourne listeners as well. Because it's the biggest airport in the country, so there'll be a flow-on result.
00:04:52
Speaker 3: That's right, yeah. So there's two strikes happening.
00:04:55
Speaker 11: So the ground staff are walking off for the next 24 hours, and then there's security that are walking off for, Two two-hour strikes, 7.30 to 9.30 and then later this afternoon. They reckon that's the one that's going to really impact because obviously they're screening you in and whatnot. But as for delays, right, it depends who you believe at the moment. So the airline's saying, no, there won't be any delays. The airport's saying, yeah, extra travel time. And the unions reckon it'll be chaos.
00:05:20
Speaker 3: Chaos.
00:05:21
Speaker 1: I would love to know if strikes actually work.
00:05:23
Speaker 4: Like, is there a desire?
00:05:26
Speaker 1: Obviously, it's for more pay, right?
00:05:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:05:28
Speaker 1: I'm assuming.
00:05:28
Speaker 2: More pay and conditions or better conditions or whatever.
00:05:30
Speaker 3: Does it ever work?
00:05:31
Speaker 1: Do they ever get their desired outcomes?
00:05:33
Speaker 6: Teachers were doing it for a while there, and they got a pretty good pay rise in New South Wales. Yeah, I think they– 30% or something.
00:05:40
Speaker 1: Oh, that's great.
00:05:40
Speaker 11: I feel like the strike action really starts the movement of like, hey, start paying us, and then usually what I see happening in news and whatnot– is that they might get half.
00:05:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, you meet in the middle.
00:05:51
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:05:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, so like the teachers might have wanted 60%, they ended up getting 30%.
00:05:56
Speaker 4: I'll tell you who should strike. I feel like the people who are the most underpaid are nurses.
00:06:02
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:06:02
Speaker 1: Like they do not.
00:06:03
Speaker 7: Get enough money.
00:06:04
Speaker 2: We'd be in a lot of trouble if they striked.
00:06:06
Speaker 1: Though, wouldn't we? Exactly right. Yeah. We'd be in a lot of trouble if they didn't exist, so why are they so underpaid?
00:06:12
Speaker 2: What about radio announcers, you know? Should we strike? You wake up one morning and all you hear is this.
00:06:20
Speaker 3: Some people might be stoked.
00:06:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, they might enjoy that.
00:06:23
Speaker 1: What an improvement.
00:06:24
Speaker 4: You know, I drove here this morning. Sometimes I listen to my music. Sometimes I talk to my friends. At the moment, I talk to occasionally my parents because they're in the UK. It's their night time. Today I just drove in complete and utter silence.
00:06:37
Speaker 2: Nothing?
00:06:38
Speaker 1: Nothing.
00:06:38
Speaker 2: I can't do that.
00:06:39
Speaker 1: It was actually really nice.
00:06:41
Speaker 4: I normally listen to Sean's news and then I just turn everything off.
00:06:45
Speaker 7: Wow.
00:06:45
Speaker 3: That's nice. Yeah.
00:06:46
Speaker 10: What?
00:06:47
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, the POM's on five to six.
00:06:49
Speaker 6: Don't listen to Alec the POM's Hour of Power.
00:06:52
Speaker 1: What time are you on?
00:06:53
Speaker 3: 5 till 6 a.m.
00:06:55
Speaker 2: Every day.
00:06:55
Speaker 6: Thanks for listening.
00:06:56
Speaker 2: Hey, mate, I heard you this morning.
00:06:59
Speaker 1: I'm going to listen tomorrow for you.
00:07:01
Speaker 6: He did a good little break about a Rubik's Cube.
00:07:04
Speaker 2: Go on, tell everyone you have 10 seconds.
00:07:07
Speaker 3: There's somebody from China. They're six years old.
00:07:09
Speaker 11: They've just broken the world record for the fastest solving of a Rubik's Cube.
00:07:12
Speaker 3: They did it in four and a half seconds. There you go.
00:07:15
Speaker 1: Four and a half seconds, and they're six years old.
00:07:18
Speaker 3: Unbelievable.
00:07:18
Speaker 2: China, if you'd bothered listening, you'd know.
00:07:21
Speaker 6: And you're going to go and see Robbie Williams live for Tradie versus Lady. Still unconfirmed reports that he'll be joining Kylie.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: Don't say it.
00:07:31
Speaker 3: It was somewhere written on Facebook, I believe, Mikey.
00:07:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what we figured out.
00:07:35
Speaker 3: He's taking it and he's running with it.
00:07:36
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like how you drop a joke and then you say the same joke every day.
00:07:42
Speaker 6: For like six months.
00:07:43
Speaker 2: It gets funnier as it goes on, doesn't it?
00:07:44
Speaker 1: Does it? Maybe in your head, yeah.
00:07:48
Speaker 6: You'll all be thanking me when you're watching the AFL Grand Final and Robbie Williams joins Kylie Minogue out there.
00:07:54
Speaker 1: Well, Robbie Williams, if he is joining Kylie, he should just come out and then also do the NRL.
00:07:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, they don't have anyone, do they?
00:08:00
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:08:01
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:08:01
Speaker 2: What's the latest with that, Sean? Still no one?
00:08:04
Speaker 3: Still no one. I'm sure there's plenty of bands ready to go.
00:08:07
Speaker 2: Well, your band. What's your band called again? The Ritzy Kids.
00:08:09
Speaker 1: Why don't we petition to get the Ritzy Kids?
00:08:11
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:08:12
Speaker 2: AFL, NFL.
00:08:13
Speaker 3: We'd do it for a carton of beer.
00:08:15
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:08:15
Speaker 2: You'd do it for nothing. Desperate.
00:08:17
Speaker 1: Have we got contacts at the NRL? Let's get the Ritzy Kids on.
00:08:22
Speaker 6: This company would have some contacts there. Katrina is our lady.
00:08:25
Speaker 10: Good morning.
00:08:27
Speaker 7: Hello, good morning.
00:08:29
Speaker 1: You are a sparky. She's a trainee too.
00:08:32
Speaker 3: I am, yes.
00:08:33
Speaker 2: Oh, so you're the trainee and then James will be the lady.
00:08:36
Speaker 1: No, no.
00:08:37
Speaker 7: Yes, exactly right.
00:08:39
Speaker 4: How is it, are you working, do you work predominantly in quite a male industry, right?
00:08:44
Speaker 1: How's it working with all the dudes?
00:08:46
Speaker 7: Oh, I love it. Like, you know what, they all get around me and help me learn new things, so I love it.
00:08:53
Speaker 2: What are they, are they, they're not creepy or anything?
00:08:56
Speaker 7: For the most part, they're not.
00:08:58
Speaker 6: They're all right.
00:09:00
Speaker 4: I'm sure some of them are, especially if Katrina's a beautiful-looking woman.
00:09:04
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:09:05
Speaker 7: As I am. As you are.
00:09:07
Speaker 2: Okay.
00:09:08
Speaker 1: All right, so you drive a Holden Colorado. Oh, another Holden. Currently single.
00:09:14
Speaker 6: Would you date a guy you met at work, or are you trying to stay away from the tradies?
00:09:19
Speaker 9: Hmm.
00:09:20
Speaker 7: Look, I love a tradie, but maybe not from my work.
00:09:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that's smart. What's that whole thing? You don't shit where you eat?
00:09:27
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:09:28
Speaker 4: Because then if something goes bad, it just makes the whole working environment awkward.
00:09:33
Speaker 2: I haven't always kept to that.
00:09:34
Speaker 1: Yeah. You haven't always kept to that?
00:09:36
Speaker 2: No, not back in the day.
00:09:37
Speaker 1: Well, but that says a lot about you.
00:09:39
Speaker 6: Loved a promo girl from the street team back.
00:09:41
Speaker 1: In the day. Oh, I bet you did.
00:09:43
Speaker 4: And so what happened a few years ago when you were away camping with the girls?
00:09:50
Speaker 7: Yeah, we were camping in New South Wales and it was like 35 degrees. So we were out camping and we were parked next to this water trough. Probably hadn't been used for like five, six years. So it was all like slimy and groggy like you could imagine. But it was so hot. The only way to cool off was literally to just jump in there. And that's what I did. And that's why my friends just love me, because I literally would do anything to cool off.
00:10:21
Speaker 2: Well, you couldn't shower after that, though. There were no showers.
00:10:25
Speaker 7: No, because, yeah, we were just camping, so there was no way to shower, nothing. I literally just, like, for the cows in the paddock.
00:10:35
Speaker 2: For them to drink out of.
00:10:35
Speaker 1: For them to drink, and you've just taken a dip in it.
00:10:39
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:10:40
Speaker 2: Are you a camper, Amy? I can't see you camping.
00:10:43
Speaker 1: I am not a camper.
00:10:45
Speaker 5: No.
00:10:45
Speaker 7: No.
00:10:45
Speaker 4: I actually was playing netball last night. Shout out to Nat if she's listening. She's another girl who plays for the Diamonds. And she was telling me they're going camping for two weeks.
00:10:55
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, like glamping? No, full camping. No, full tents.
00:11:00
Speaker 4: Oh.
00:11:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, full tents.
00:11:01
Speaker 4: And then she was like, you know we travelled around Australia just camping everywhere.
00:11:06
Speaker 6: That'd be good tents, though, wouldn't it?
00:11:08
Speaker 1: For seven months.
00:11:09
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:11:10
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, wow. I just.
00:11:12
Speaker 4: I feel like you're either a camper or you're not. Like my brother and his wife, they love camping. They go to places where there's no electricity, no mobile phone service, no toilets, no nothing. They're digging holes, shitting in the ground. And I was like, you're going to get wolf creaked out there. How will anyone know if you go missing?
00:11:34
Speaker 6: I can do it for like a night or two and then I'm over it. One night actually.
00:11:37
Speaker 1: Also, what about wolves?
00:11:39
Speaker 2: We don't have them in Australia.
00:11:41
Speaker 1: Sorry. What's the thing that took the dingo?
00:11:43
Speaker 10: Yes.
00:11:44
Speaker 1: What about– it's a no from me.
00:11:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see. Very passionate no from you.
00:11:48
Speaker 1: Very passionate.
00:11:50
Speaker 4: All right, Katrina, weighing in at 75 kgs, it's Katrina, the Muddy Menace.
00:11:59
Speaker 2: We are meeting our tradie– well, yeah, another tradie, James. Hello.
00:12:04
Speaker 3: Hi, James.
00:12:04
Speaker 9: Hi.
00:12:07
Speaker 2: Oh, no, I hit the wrong button.
00:12:08
Speaker 4: Hello, mate.
00:12:09
Speaker 5: Hey, James.
00:12:10
Speaker 8: How are you?
00:12:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, good.
00:12:12
Speaker 7: That's all?
00:12:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, mate.
00:12:14
Speaker 6: You're a concreter, married with two kids you got.
00:12:18
Speaker 2: What do you got, boy and a girl?
00:12:19
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:12:19
Speaker 3: Boy, boy, girl, girl?
00:12:21
Speaker 1: Boy and a girl.
00:12:23
Speaker 3: Oh, nice.
00:12:23
Speaker 2: You got a Hyundai Tucson.
00:12:25
Speaker 1: Tucson.
00:12:25
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:12:26
Speaker 6: Now, yesterday, so something happened to you at work. A guy was being a smartass. So what did you do to him?
00:12:32
Speaker 10: Well, a guy who's been a smartass, we backed up the truck and he was behind the chute and we poured concrete in his boots.
00:12:38
Speaker 2: As he was wearing them?
00:12:40
Speaker 1: As he was wearing them.
00:12:41
Speaker 6: Isn't that what the mafia do to murder people?
00:12:45
Speaker 7: Oh, well, that's the trick of the trade. You be cheeky, we fill up your boots.
00:12:50
Speaker 4: How quickly does the cement set? Would he have been able to.
00:12:54
Speaker 1: Tip it out? Oh, no, he'll be able to tip it out, but it was just, yeah. Yeah.
00:12:59
Speaker 7: Not a good feeling for him to start the morning.
00:13:02
Speaker 4: Imagine he put his feet in them and then it just sat around his feet.
00:13:05
Speaker 2: Well, that's the idea. And that is how... Oh, hold on.
00:13:08
Speaker 11: Oh.
00:13:08
Speaker 2: That's how they used to murder people in the mafia.
00:13:12
Speaker 1: What was that?
00:13:12
Speaker 2: You're actually going to put concrete in.
00:13:14
Speaker 3: Your boots and then take you out on a boat and see you later.
00:13:16
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:13:17
Speaker 2: See you later.
00:13:18
Speaker 1: And you'd sink to the bottom.
00:13:21
Speaker 2: You'll be sleeping with the fishes.
00:13:23
Speaker 1: Sleeping with the fishes. Oh, wow.
00:13:27
Speaker 6: Yeah. Weighing in at 75 kilos, it's James the Godfather.
00:13:34
Speaker 2: All right, guys. Good luck. Here we go. Amy's got your questions, mate.
00:13:38
Speaker 1: All right, James. In pregnancy, roughly how long is a trimester?
00:13:49
Speaker 7: I should know this.
00:13:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should. You got two.
00:13:53
Speaker 1: There's three trimesters.
00:13:58
Speaker 2: Give it a go, mate.
00:13:59
Speaker 7: Go on.
00:14:02
Speaker 1: No.
00:14:02
Speaker 6: James.
00:14:03
Speaker 1: I really should have knew that. Where were you when your wife was pregnant?
00:14:08
Speaker 6: Putting concrete in people's boots, not paying attention.
00:14:11
Speaker 4: Three trimesters, most pregnancies are nine to ten months.
00:14:15
Speaker 1: So, yeah, the answer is three months.
00:14:16
Speaker 6: James.
00:14:19
Speaker 3: All right.
00:14:20
Speaker 1: What does the brand CookEye sell?
00:14:23
Speaker 6: Female brand.
00:14:26
Speaker 1: What does the brand CookEye sell?
00:14:31
Speaker 8: Jewelry.
00:14:33
Speaker 1: It's clothes, women's clothing.
00:14:35
Speaker 2: Are you wearing some cook eye right now?
00:14:37
Speaker 1: I'm actually not, no. But they do do really nice stuff. Okay, James, you've got to get this one.
00:14:43
Speaker 4: In what sport would you perform a salchow, an axle and a camel spin?
00:14:51
Speaker 10: What?
00:14:53
Speaker 2: What sport, man? Think of a camel spin.
00:14:56
Speaker 1: An axle.
00:14:57
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:14:57
Speaker 8: An axle. Yeah.
00:15:02
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:15:04
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was.
00:15:05
Speaker 1: All right.
00:15:05
Speaker 2: Well, you got nothing.
00:15:06
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.
00:15:07
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:15:08
Speaker 6: But, you know, the tiebreaker might happen, so hold in there.
00:15:10
Speaker 2: Just didn't even want to have a guess.
00:15:11
Speaker 1: Figure skating.
00:15:12
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:15:13
Speaker 2: That makes sense.
00:15:14
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:15:15
Speaker 2: All right, Katrina, ready to go?
00:15:16
Speaker 3: Yes, ready.
00:15:19
Speaker 6: Excellent. Let's see if you can do better than that. The Hilux, it's a ute made by who?
00:15:28
Speaker 8: Toyota.
00:15:29
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:15:30
Speaker 2: Well, look, you've done it, basically. It's all over.
00:15:33
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:15:33
Speaker 2: The money matters. Good morning.
00:15:38
Speaker 6: It's Mikey, Amy Gerard for Chemist Warehouse and dead on half past six right now.
00:15:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, a podcaster has weighed in on the jobs that she believes are most likely to cheat. Wait, has weighed in on the jobs she believes are most likely to cheat.
00:15:54
Speaker 2: So, Joy. Yeah, like a job and you're a cheater.
00:15:57
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm assuming. Let's have a listen.
00:16:00
Speaker 4: So Joy from the Living in the Comments podcast, she doesn't trust any of these people that do these jobs.
00:16:07
Speaker 2: Here we go.
00:16:08
Speaker 1: DJs, videographers and photographers, 100%. Chefs, the pressure is too high. In the kitchen, they're talking to them like crap. They need an outlet. And that outlet is cheating.
00:16:18
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:16:18
Speaker 3: Bartenders as well.
00:16:20
Speaker 4: Okay, yes.
00:16:20
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:16:21
Speaker 1: How could I forget the most important one?
00:16:23
Speaker 9: PT's 1,245%.
00:16:24
Speaker 1: And I've just added this one.
00:16:26
Speaker 3: Cab drivers.
00:16:27
Speaker 1: Cab drivers?
00:16:28
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. No, they would.
00:16:32
Speaker 1: How is a cab driver cheating?
00:16:34
Speaker 6: Well, I remember once I knew this chick and she said she would never pay for a cab.
00:16:40
Speaker 2: And I was like, what?
00:16:41
Speaker 1: She does a runner.
00:16:42
Speaker 2: Oh, she was rough as guts. No, no, no, no runner. She goes, yeah, I just pay with my hairy checkbook.
00:16:48
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
00:16:49
Speaker 2: Pointed.
00:16:51
Speaker 1: No, she doesn't.
00:16:52
Speaker 2: I mean, think about it. Yes, she does.
00:16:54
Speaker 6: But cab drivers are out driving around all the time. They'd have opportunities.
00:16:57
Speaker 1: I must live in some completely different world.
00:16:59
Speaker 4: Like, I'm not even having conversations with my cab drivers, let alone propositioning them with my.
00:17:05
Speaker 1: Hair and shit.
00:17:06
Speaker 6: How good is that?
00:17:07
Speaker 1: I don't think, listen, I.
00:17:10
Speaker 4: Know from experience, from friends and friends of friends, the worst industry for infidelity.
00:17:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is it? Other police. Oh, why?
00:17:23
Speaker 2: What, opportunity?
00:17:24
Speaker 4: Well, I just think it's usually when they're with a partner and there's just so much time.
00:17:30
Speaker 2: Like their police partner?
00:17:32
Speaker 4: Not necessarily their partner, but they've got so much time where they're sometimes just sitting around twiddling their thumbs.
00:17:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, cops don't do much.
00:17:38
Speaker 3: I don't know.
00:17:39
Speaker 1: Don't say that. You'll get trolled, Mikey.
00:17:42
Speaker 4: Or they are having it off with other people in protective services like ambulance officers or fireys and stuff like that.
00:17:51
Speaker 2: Isn't it just all about the opportunities?
00:17:53
Speaker 6: I mean, we go through that one that that woman was talking about, like the list, right? Cab drivers, yeah, I probably do disagree, but I have heard of people paying. It's not really cheating, that's more prostitution. But DJs, you're at a nightclub, right?
00:18:08
Speaker 2: Opportunity, videographer.
00:18:10
Speaker 9: Yes.
00:18:10
Speaker 6: I don't know. You might be surrounded by models, photographers, same thing. Or you'd go to a lot of weddings and you meet people, I don't know, chefs.
00:18:18
Speaker 1: Chefs, I'm a bit curious out on that one.
00:18:19
Speaker 6: I don't know.
00:18:20
Speaker 2: They look too busy to me.
00:18:21
Speaker 9: Yep.
00:18:21
Speaker 10: Bartenders.
00:18:22
Speaker 2: Bartenders for sure.
00:18:24
Speaker 4: I feel like it's anybody who is almost in a position of power, not necessarily like a huge position of power, but like somebody who's making something for you. Maybe it's a drink or somebody who's DJing and you think they're cool.
00:18:37
Speaker 1: Men in uniform, they're kind of hot.
00:18:39
Speaker 2: I get what you're saying.
00:18:41
Speaker 1: One of my cousins is a police officer.
00:18:43
Speaker 2: Cheating all the time?
00:18:44
Speaker 4: No, he's actually single, but he was like the amount of women that proposition me, even when he's like out patrolling. He's up in the Gold Coast. And he's like, he's an attractive man as well.
00:18:55
Speaker 8: Right.
00:18:56
Speaker 1: Throw themselves at him.
00:18:57
Speaker 2: Man in uniforms, a thing too.
00:18:58
Speaker 1: That's right.
00:18:59
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:19:00
Speaker 6: So it's a combination of like the power dynamic that you're talking about.
00:19:04
Speaker 2: And I think just opportunity.
00:19:06
Speaker 6: I mean, if you're Craig and you work in accounts and everyone's boring, you don't see. Yeah.
00:19:11
Speaker 2: You don't get the opportunity.
00:19:13
Speaker 4: Well, you still say, I feel like the most affairs happen in the workplace.
00:19:18
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:19:18
Speaker 4: And a lot of the time it is corporate workplaces because you spend more of your time at work than you do at home sometimes.
00:19:25
Speaker 6: So you want to be with a man that isn't surrounded by women?
00:19:29
Speaker 1: It'd be good to be with a tradie, I reckon.
00:19:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:19:31
Speaker 1: Because he's just on the job site with other men.
00:19:33
Speaker 6: Although we've heard stories before of tradies getting it on with the housewife when they go to fix her air con.
00:19:38
Speaker 4: No, we did not hear any stories of that. No, that's another. You might have seen that on Facebook.
00:19:44
Speaker 3: It's a fantasy of mine.
00:19:47
Speaker 2: Should we, oh, what about doctors?
00:19:50
Speaker 1: Oh, never once.
00:19:53
Speaker 6: Dr.
00:19:53
Speaker 2: Kiss is about to come in.
00:19:54
Speaker 1: Never been propositioned by a patient. Oh, yes.
00:19:58
Speaker 9: Wait, wait.
00:19:58
Speaker 2: Come to the mic.
00:19:59
Speaker 3: Come to the mic.
00:20:00
Speaker 6: Just come in.
00:20:01
Speaker 2: Just come in tonight.
00:20:02
Speaker 8: So it was awesome.
00:20:03
Speaker 10: So I'd just been on in Oxford Street at a sexual health clinic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'd just treated a guy's chlamydia and gonorrhea.
00:20:13
Speaker 3: Okay, both of them.
00:20:14
Speaker 10: And then he walks up to get his results and he stood up, gave me his card and said, anytime you'd like a date.
00:20:21
Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh.
00:20:22
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not gay for one, but two. You're not gay?
00:20:26
Speaker 7: No.
00:20:26
Speaker 6: But if you were, you're probably not going with the guy that you just helped out with his STDs.
00:20:31
Speaker 1: Well, at least you'd know he'd be clean.
00:20:33
Speaker 3: Well, that's true.
00:20:34
Speaker 2: That is true.
00:20:35
Speaker 3: But no, it was just a no.
00:20:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a hard no.
00:20:38
Speaker 6: What about hospitals, like nurses, surgeons, that kind of stuff? Surely there's a lot of infidelity there.
00:20:44
Speaker 10: Look, I think everybody likes to have fun in a hospital system, that's for sure.
00:20:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. But you're a GP. You're well behaved.
00:20:50
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
00:20:51
Speaker 1: And he's a married man, so yes.
00:20:54
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:20:54
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:20:55
Speaker 2: Well, he's here.
00:20:56
Speaker 6: If you have a medical question for him, let's get him on next, all right? All right, here is Dr. Kearse joining us for your medical questions, 131065.
00:21:05
Speaker 3: Morning, mates.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: Good morning.
00:21:06
Speaker 1: How are you going?
00:21:07
Speaker 2: We are good. You all ready to go?
00:21:08
Speaker 5: Pumped.
00:21:09
Speaker 8: Yes, please.
00:21:10
Speaker 2: Let's get it on. Angela, you're through. Hello.
00:21:12
Speaker 9: Hello.
00:21:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it. You're on with Dr.
00:21:17
Speaker 1: Kearse.
00:21:19
Speaker 3: Dr.
00:21:19
Speaker 7: Kearse. Hi, Angela. Save my life.
00:21:22
Speaker 5: Because I am dating a man who sounds like a tractor.
00:21:29
Speaker 8: Sorry, fell off a tractor.
00:21:30
Speaker 1: No, no, he sounds like a tractor.
00:21:32
Speaker 3: Oh, sounds like a tractor.
00:21:35
Speaker 10: Yes, loud as hell.
00:21:36
Speaker 5: People can hear him in the rooms, in the hallway. And he stops breathing when he's soaring. He's got sleep apnea, but he won't wear that machine.
00:21:48
Speaker 2: Ah, gotcha.
00:21:49
Speaker 6: So you're dating a man with sleep apnea and he won't wear the machine.
00:21:53
Speaker 4: And you're saying that he sounds loud. Is he noisy even when he's not asleep, Angela?
00:21:59
Speaker 9: Oh, yes.
00:22:01
Speaker 8: He snores.
00:22:02
Speaker 5: He's had a blocked nose since the day I started dating him.
00:22:06
Speaker 2: It's not normal to just have a blocked nose all the time, is it, Dr.
00:22:09
Speaker 3: Kitts?
00:22:09
Speaker 10: No, so sleep apnea where you get a lot of snoring, but then you get this blockage of your airways, which then causes you to choke and you lose blood supply to the brain. Can you die? No, not specifically. No, but it links to heart attacks and strokes and all those sorts of things. But yes, some blockage through the nasal passages can lead to increased snoring, regardless of whether or not you've got sleep apnea. And that increased blockage could be coming from allergies, just large turbinates, so the parts of the nose or a big polyp. which is like a little mushroom that grows on the side of the nose. So certainly if there's that chronic congestion, difficulty breathing, generally we start with some saline flushing to help get rid of the snot and it just bathes the lining to get it to work better. And then something like a steroid spray, which helps to shrink the lining down.
00:22:57
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:22:57
Speaker 2: If I do, I do a lot of ocean swimming.
00:23:00
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:23:01
Speaker 6: When I've had a cold before or whatever, I just love jumping in there. Does that help the water clean your nose out?
00:23:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does.
00:23:08
Speaker 10: But you've got to be careful after lots of rain because the water is so dirty. So if you get lots of that in the sinuses, that can be a problem as well.
00:23:15
Speaker 2: Oh, you get an infection.
00:23:17
Speaker 3: All right.
00:23:18
Speaker 2: Jay, you're on with Dr.
00:23:19
Speaker 6: Kearse.
00:23:19
Speaker 2: Hello.
00:23:20
Speaker 8: G'day, guys. Hey, Dr. Kearse. I've been, my eyes have been tested. I still get headaches from watching TV for a while. What can I do to stop those headaches from coming and annoying the crap out of me?
00:23:37
Speaker 10: Yeah, so headaches watching television is relatively common. Vision issues, so getting a lot of eye strain is probably one of the most common ones. If you suffer from migraines, it could be the flicker rate or the bright lights, especially if you're in a dark room, could be triggering things as well. Neck posture, if you sort of slouched on a couch and the neck's in the wrong position. So it's looking at all those sorts of things.
00:24:01
Speaker 2: Okay. What about wearing sunglasses inside?
00:24:04
Speaker 6: Would that help?
00:24:05
Speaker 7: What?
00:24:06
Speaker 2: He's watching TV.
00:24:08
Speaker 1: No. Jay, are you only getting headaches whilst watching TV?
00:24:13
Speaker 8: Yes. So I actually lie down on a couch and watch TV. And, you know, it's been happening to me since I was about 14, 15 years old. And they still cannot figure out what it is. I've had my eyes checked. I don't wear sunglasses to watch TV. But I should be wearing glasses because I've got poor eyesight.
00:24:38
Speaker 2: Oh, there you go. Get your glasses on, mate.
00:24:40
Speaker 10: And it sounds like lying down, you're not in the best posture for your neck as well.
00:24:44
Speaker 2: All right, Declan, you're on with Dr.
00:24:46
Speaker 8: Kiss.
00:24:46
Speaker 2: Hello, Declan.
00:24:48
Speaker 6: How you going, mate?
00:24:49
Speaker 7: Hey, good.
00:24:49
Speaker 2: All right, go for it. What's your question, mate?
00:24:52
Speaker 9: Yeah, my doctor told me I've got microplasia. I'm not actually sure what that means, but I've been sleeping around a bit.
00:25:00
Speaker 2: Okay, so you cut out a bit there.
00:25:03
Speaker 1: Mycoplasma.
00:25:04
Speaker 10: Yep, mycoplasma.
00:25:05
Speaker 3: Do you know what that is?
00:25:07
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:25:07
Speaker 10: Go on, mate. I'm kind of unsure on what it is. Okay, so we've got urethritis, which is where you get an infection of the lining of the old fella or the same issue for the ladies. You can get some burning, stinging of your weed, discharge. Now, the thing is that when you've got these infections, 50% of the time, zero symptoms, which is why they get passed between couple to uncouple. Now, the major ones, chlamydia, gonorrhea... but there's an emerging one called mycoplasma. But a lot of people don't realise that if you've got a cold or a flu, you can give that virus down there with oral sex.
00:25:45
Speaker 7: Yes, okay.
00:25:45
Speaker 4: So is mycoplasma something that can be treated just with antibiotics or.
00:25:49
Speaker 5: Yes.
00:25:50
Speaker 10: One of the challenges, though, is that there is a lot of antibiotic resistance, so you need to hit it hard with a couple of antibiotics and then we need to make sure we do a test of cure a month later because sometimes those antibiotics don't work, so you've got to use another lot.
00:26:04
Speaker 4: And should Declan not sleep with anyone whilst with mycoplasma?
00:26:09
Speaker 10: Certainly shouldn't be sleeping without protection.
00:26:12
Speaker 2: And a dental dam.
00:26:14
Speaker 1: A dental dam, Declan, yep.
00:26:16
Speaker 2: You might need to use a dental dam, Declan.
00:26:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, delightful.
00:26:20
Speaker 2: Have you used one of them?
00:26:22
Speaker 10: Anyone?
00:26:23
Speaker 1: No, I have not. I actually wouldn't even know how to.
00:26:27
Speaker 8: What?
00:26:29
Speaker 1: Use a dental dam.
00:26:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what they are, don't you?
00:26:32
Speaker 1: When you're getting your teeth fixed? So kind of.
00:26:35
Speaker 10: Big bit of latex that you put over the lady and then you have your fun through it.
00:26:41
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:26:41
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:26:42
Speaker 9: Oh.
00:26:42
Speaker 2: They're a thing.
00:26:42
Speaker 3: Oh, they're good.
00:26:43
Speaker 2: But you never heard of them, Sean.
00:26:44
Speaker 3: Never heard of one. Nah.
00:26:46
Speaker 1: So you don't see the lady's face. A dental dam. Yeah, it's for when you get your teeth done.
00:26:51
Speaker 4: No, no, no.
00:26:51
Speaker 10: Yes, but these ones are for down below.
00:26:53
Speaker 3: Oh.
00:26:54
Speaker 7: Dr.
00:26:54
Speaker 2: Kiss and I know what's going on.
00:26:56
Speaker 4: Oh, okay.
00:26:56
Speaker 2: They're not very common, I don't think.
00:26:58
Speaker 10: No. Would they work?
00:26:59
Speaker 3: Why would you use one?
00:27:01
Speaker 1: Why would you use one?
00:27:01
Speaker 2: Well, it'd be like doing safe, well, I'll let the doctor talk.
00:27:04
Speaker 10: Safe oral sex.
00:27:06
Speaker 1: Gotcha.
00:27:07
Speaker 2: Specifically for women.
00:27:09
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:27:09
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:27:10
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:27:10
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah.
00:27:11
Speaker 2: Oh, there we go.
00:27:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I've got some Google. I've got some Google. Oh, look at those curly pubes.
00:27:18
Speaker 2: I wonder who uses them.
00:27:20
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:27:21
Speaker 3: Not sure.
00:27:22
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:27:24
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:27:24
Speaker 2: Well, there you go. Go look that up for yourself. Dr.
00:27:27
Speaker 6: Kiss, thank you, mate.
00:27:29
Speaker 2: You're very welcome.
00:27:29
Speaker 8: Thank you.
00:27:30
Speaker 6: Hey, Amy, you were telling us this silly story about when you were a kid. I need you to explain it on air, okay?
00:27:37
Speaker 4: When I was a young kid, I was picking up blue bottles. And their tentacles are still alive. And me and my brothers were picking them up. Anyway, I must have picked up about 50 and I was popping them with my hands. And their little tentacles had been slapping in between my thighs and all over my stomach.
00:27:55
Speaker 1: Anyway, I was in so much pain. We were camping.
00:27:59
Speaker 4: And then my dad comes over and he's like, right, lay down. He just pulled his old member out. And he's like, this is the best thing for it. And literally did a wee on me. And all I kept thinking was, if somebody was observing this from outside in a car park, this would look so deranged.
00:28:17
Speaker 2: You know, hearing that story is deranged.
00:28:19
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:28:20
Speaker 2: Everyone, can we just look at everyone's face out there?
00:28:23
Speaker 6: You know, it.
00:28:24
Speaker 2: Doesn't work, by the way, Amy.
00:28:26
Speaker 7: Well.
00:28:26
Speaker 2: Because I got done by Blue Bottles about a year ago and I went to the Lifesavers.
00:28:30
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:28:30
Speaker 6: And no, the Lifesaver didn't just make me lie down and they all weed on me.
00:28:33
Speaker 3: You know what?
00:28:34
Speaker 4: It's an old wives' tale and he thought he was doing the right thing, but I will say it is a memory that has haunted me for my entire life.
00:28:43
Speaker 2: Well, now we're all haunted. Thanks so much, Amy.
00:28:47
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:28:47
Speaker 6: The producers have actually just got Dr Kiss on the phone to confirm urine doesn't actually help the blue bottle sting.
00:28:56
Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
00:28:57
Speaker 7: Hello?
00:28:58
Speaker 2: Good morning, good morning. So, Amy, your dad.
00:29:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, so my dad, when I was about six or seven or something, I was stung by lots and lots of blue bottle tentacles. And back in the day, like this is going back 30 odd years, my dad told me that urine is, it takes the sting out or there's something in urine that helps with the stings.
00:29:24
Speaker 1: And so, yes.
00:29:26
Speaker 2: So he weighed on her?
00:29:28
Speaker 1: So he weed on me. So is there anything in it? Seriously, he weed on you.
00:29:33
Speaker 7: Crikey.
00:29:35
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:29:37
Speaker 5: I'm really sorry, but no.
00:29:38
Speaker 8: Urinating on me.
00:29:40
Speaker 10: Blue bottle thing is not going to do anything for you.
00:29:43
Speaker 4: Just had a golden shower by my dad. I need to go to counselling now.
00:29:46
Speaker 2: I think we all do, yeah? Well, Amy, you're a mum of three.
00:29:54
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:29:54
Speaker 2: You wanted four.
00:29:55
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:29:56
Speaker 2: Maybe good you stopped at three.
00:29:57
Speaker 7: Why?
00:29:58
Speaker 6: New research from the Parenthood have released data. Each kid's costing you $ 37, 000 a year. $ 37, 000 a year.
00:30:06
Speaker 2: I mean, and that's.
00:30:08
Speaker 4: If you're sending them to public schools and stuff. If you're sending them to private schools.
00:30:12
Speaker 6: Well, they're saying this accounts for childcare, food, clothes, education, activities, all of that. So about, let's call it $ 40, 000. Your kids are costing you about $ 40, 000 per child a year.
00:30:24
Speaker 1: And the rest.
00:30:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you reckon you spend the most on when it comes to your kids?
00:30:30
Speaker 4: Um.
00:30:31
Speaker 1: extracurriculum activities, like sports and stuff.
00:30:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not cheap, are they?
00:30:35
Speaker 1: No, like jiu-jitsu, they've just started doing jiu-jitsu.
00:30:39
Speaker 4: And they love it, but it's like $ 70 a week. It's more expensive than a gym membership.
00:30:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, to do that.
00:30:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like some weeks we don't even.
00:30:45
Speaker 4: Get there because there's also soccer and Oztag and netball.
00:30:50
Speaker 1: I spend so much money on food.
00:30:52
Speaker 2: Like my boys are like- What would you spend?
00:30:54
Speaker 6: Because like I can go up to Woolies- Being a single, well, I'm not single, being a man that lives alone, but I can go up to Woolies if I'm not shopping with my girlfriend and it's just me for the week.
00:31:04
Speaker 2: I reckon I can spend like 60 bucks and I'm done.
00:31:06
Speaker 1: In a week?
00:31:07
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:31:08
Speaker 1: A whole week?
00:31:09
Speaker 2: Well, you've seen what I've eaten. Sultanas, almonds, a couple of dinners, done.
00:31:14
Speaker 1: Yeah.
00:31:16
Speaker 2: I live alone.
00:31:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I'm just trying to work out how are you making seven dinners a week?
00:31:21
Speaker 3: Lunches.
00:31:22
Speaker 2: That's a lot of takeaway.
00:31:25
Speaker 1: I would spend upwards of $ 500. On groceries?
00:31:27
Speaker 6: Easy.
00:31:29
Speaker 4: Just fruit alone, I'm spending like $ 100 every four days. My kids will power. They're having so much fruit in their lunchboxes. They're crunch and sip. They have fruit for breakfast. They have fruit when they get home.
00:31:42
Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Don't even get started on packets of chips.
00:31:45
Speaker 6: $ 500 a week.
00:31:47
Speaker 1: I think you'll find that's pretty normal.
00:31:49
Speaker 2: I don't know.
00:31:50
Speaker 1: Family of five.
00:31:51
Speaker 2: I've never shopped for a family of five.
00:31:52
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah.
00:31:53
Speaker 2: Hey, I've got a solution for you.
00:31:55
Speaker 1: You know what else as well? Just quickly.
00:31:57
Speaker 2: Close.
00:31:58
Speaker 4: My kids grow so quickly. So like you'll buy them a whole set of, You buy them brand new shoes. Six months later, they need new shoes. You buy them size H t-shirts. All of a sudden, they need size 10.
00:32:08
Speaker 8: Right.
00:32:08
Speaker 6: Well, I got solutions, right? And not just you, all parents listening. I've been thinking about it as you were talking.
00:32:14
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear them.
00:32:16
Speaker 8: Right.
00:32:16
Speaker 2: So this is all the expensive stuff, right?
00:32:18
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:32:18
Speaker 2: Childcare. That should be free. I'm not even being silly.
00:32:22
Speaker 6: Sorry? No, the government should have provided free childcare. Your kid gets to go to school for free from what? $ 5, 000?
00:32:29
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:32:29
Speaker 6: Childcare should be free. They've even talked about it, but I firmly believe. Why don't we have in a public school, have another room where it's childcare? Problem solved.
00:32:39
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
00:32:40
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:32:40
Speaker 2: So I'm going with that.
00:32:41
Speaker 5: Food.
00:32:41
Speaker 3: I don't know.
00:32:42
Speaker 2: Just get some home brand stuff. Leftovers. Whatever the parents eat, they can have leftovers. We'll go with that.
00:32:47
Speaker 5: Clothes.
00:32:48
Speaker 2: Here's a big one.
00:32:49
Speaker 1: Are you going to feed your baby steak?
00:32:51
Speaker 2: Little bits of it, just ground it up or something.
00:32:53
Speaker 1: Oh, here you go, six-month-old, have a chicken snitty.
00:32:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, ground up, mushed up.
00:32:56
Speaker 1: And a Caesar salad.
00:32:58
Speaker 2: So that's good.
00:32:58
Speaker 6: So I've solved your expensive food there.
00:33:00
Speaker 3: Sure.
00:33:01
Speaker 8: Clothes.
00:33:02
Speaker 6: Why don't kids just wear, like, garbage bags and hand-me-downs and stuff? Like, does a three-year-old really need designer clothes?
00:33:08
Speaker 1: Thank God you're not a parent.
00:33:10
Speaker 6: They could just wear a raincoat that you got from Lowe's or something.
00:33:15
Speaker 1: Why don't kids wear garbage bags?
00:33:18
Speaker 3: They could.
00:33:19
Speaker 1: Maybe because they could suffocate in them?
00:33:21
Speaker 6: No.
00:33:21
Speaker 1: Sweat profusely?
00:33:24
Speaker 2: Education. Free public school.
00:33:26
Speaker 6: Don't play those. What are those nominal fees or whatever? Like you've got to pay a fee?
00:33:31
Speaker 2: You don't have to, do you?
00:33:32
Speaker 1: No, you don't in public schools.
00:33:33
Speaker 2: There you go. Education's free. Activities. Here's a stick.
00:33:37
Speaker 4: What?
00:33:38
Speaker 2: Go down the bush.
00:33:39
Speaker 1: Here's a stick.
00:33:40
Speaker 2: Play with a stick.
00:33:42
Speaker 1: Problem solved.
00:33:43
Speaker 4: You can offload those kind of things when they're toddlers. You can give them pots and pans and stuff.
00:33:47
Speaker 6: Yeah, there we go.
00:33:48
Speaker 1: There's shortcuts. But when you've got an eight-year-old.
00:33:51
Speaker 4: And all his friends are doing jiu-jitsu and playing soccer, a stick's not going to cut it, Mikey.
00:33:56
Speaker 6: Well, if every parent got together and it's like, we don't do these activities anymore.
00:34:00
Speaker 2: We do sticks. Problem solved. What do you think, Sean?
00:34:04
Speaker 3: I don't know. My son's 16 months old. If I gave him a sticky poke, he'd poke his eye out.
00:34:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I tried. You were actually giving your son a weapon at that point.
00:34:13
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:34:14
Speaker 2: Hey, Jenny's just called in.
00:34:15
Speaker 6: Morning.
00:34:16
Speaker 1: Hey, Jenny.
00:34:17
Speaker 5: Good morning.
00:34:18
Speaker 1: Hi.
00:34:19
Speaker 7: Where are you guys from?
00:34:21
Speaker 5: Because I've got two boys, both of whom are in daycare. This kid cost me $ 41, 000 in daycare fees.
00:34:29
Speaker 6: Well, you might want to spend some of that money getting a new phone because I can barely hear you. But it comes from... The research comes from the parenthood. The poem was deep diving into this this morning.
00:34:40
Speaker 1: It's not.
00:34:41
Speaker 2: It's not bull crap, is it?
00:34:42
Speaker 3: No, they're legit. They're a campaigning organisation. They seem to know their stuff.
00:34:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Jenny's saying what more?
00:34:49
Speaker 1: 100%. I even thought the same thing.
00:34:51
Speaker 4: $ 37, 000 a year per kid.
00:34:55
Speaker 1: That's cheap as chips. It is so much more expensive.
00:34:58
Speaker 2: What do you reckon it would be?
00:35:02
Speaker 5: Oh, as I said, I pay $ 160 a day for each kid.
00:35:07
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:35:07
Speaker 5: And my kids don't get new clothes. They're lucky they have nephews.
00:35:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, hand-me-downs. Yeah.
00:35:13
Speaker 4: So Jenny's paying $ 41, 000 per kid just for daycare.
00:35:16
Speaker 2: Daycare, yeah.
00:35:17
Speaker 4: That's not including food, new clothes, God forbid, birthday presents and.
00:35:22
Speaker 2: Stuff like that. Garbage bags, sticks, yeah. Hey, are you with me then? On a serious note, childcare should be free. Should it not?
00:35:29
Speaker 4: I think everyone would take the piss a little bit.
00:35:33
Speaker 2: Okay, how about this? It should be free if you work.
00:35:36
Speaker 4: It's subsidised accordingly based on your income.
00:35:39
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:35:40
Speaker 4: So people who aren't earning a whole lot of money, they end up paying $ 12 for childcare.
00:35:45
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:35:46
Speaker 6: But why is it okay for it to be free from when they're five, but it's not okay to be free when they're under five?
00:35:52
Speaker 4: But I think a lot of people would just, you'd just find child cares, they'd just be inundated because people would be like, oh, cool, someone to look after my kid for free.
00:36:00
Speaker 9: Right.
00:36:01
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:36:01
Speaker 2: What's the problem with that?
00:36:04
Speaker 1: Think of the child care workers.
00:36:06
Speaker 2: I'll pay him more.
00:36:08
Speaker 6: I don't know.
00:36:08
Speaker 1: Well, there's another, yeah. Pay him more.
00:36:11
Speaker 6: Your tax dollars with all your social media influencing will tax you more.
00:36:15
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:36:16
Speaker 1: And you, Mikey, you professional radio host. Let's tax Mikey.
00:36:19
Speaker 2: Let's not do that.
00:36:20
Speaker 9: Hello.
00:36:20
Speaker 2: Good morning. You are on.
00:36:22
Speaker 3: Hello.
00:36:23
Speaker 2: Mikey, Amy Gerard. Hey, if your husband died.
00:36:27
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:36:28
Speaker 2: How long until you're dating again?
00:36:32
Speaker 1: Oh, not for ages.
00:36:33
Speaker 8: Okay.
00:36:34
Speaker 1: Also, I've got three kids.
00:36:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, true.
00:36:36
Speaker 1: Probably wouldn't bother.
00:36:38
Speaker 6: So there's this podcast, Voices of Brooklyn. They were talking about it. This host, Patrick, he's got a rule. It is morbid, but have a listen.
00:36:45
Speaker 9: You've got to give me at least a year, right?
00:36:48
Speaker 6: At least.
00:36:49
Speaker 9: Because, bro, I'm dead. Like, are you kidding me? Like, give me a... Unless she killed you and that's the case. But if I die on you, girl, you better be.
00:36:59
Speaker 2: You better be so sad.
00:37:01
Speaker 6: If I die on you, girl.
00:37:02
Speaker 2: I'll haunt your ass, I swear to God. And I mean.
00:37:05
Speaker 9: Like, I get it. You got to move on. I don't want you to wear a black veil for your whole life. But you got to give me a year.
00:37:11
Speaker 2: So he reckons a year.
00:37:13
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, look, you'd have some questions if.
00:37:17
Speaker 4: Your partner drops dead, and then a couple of weeks later, you're out on the dating scene again.
00:37:22
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:37:22
Speaker 6: I feel it also depends on the age, right? Like, I'm sure if one of my parents died, they're not going to date again. Yeah. Once you're retired and in your 70s and stuff.
00:37:31
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe.
00:37:32
Speaker 1: Okay, if they did. So, oh, my God.
00:37:35
Speaker 2: What if dad all of a sudden went to Pattaya in Thailand?
00:37:39
Speaker 1: What are you going there for, Dad? Yeah, his next wife.
00:37:42
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:37:42
Speaker 1: My grandma, the dirty dog, my grandpa.
00:37:45
Speaker 3: Well, actually, no.
00:37:46
Speaker 1: So my grandpa had a stroke.
00:37:48
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:37:49
Speaker 4: And then he was like a vegetable, so alive in his own body, which was horrendous.
00:37:53
Speaker 2: Poor thing. Was he in a home or something?
00:37:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was.
00:37:56
Speaker 4: But he had a stroke but lost all mobility, basically. Couldn't even swallow for two years. So he was just like a vegetable.
00:38:02
Speaker 2: Awful.
00:38:03
Speaker 3: Horrendous.
00:38:03
Speaker 1: Anyway.
00:38:05
Speaker 4: He passed away and literally within two months my grandma was on a cruise ship with their family friend, Peter Roth, sharing a room.
00:38:17
Speaker 10: Oh, scandal.
00:38:18
Speaker 1: And I was like, what?
00:38:19
Speaker 7: What?
00:38:20
Speaker 1: And she said, because I was like, what on earth is she doing?
00:38:25
Speaker 4: And my mum was like, oh, no, it's just companionship because his wife had also passed on.
00:38:31
Speaker 7: But.
00:38:32
Speaker 2: Were you judging her?
00:38:33
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. I was rooting for her. I was like, get it, girl. She'd only ever been with my grandpa. So I was like, it's nice, a bit of variety.
00:38:41
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:38:42
Speaker 6: And I know it's awful, but she did have two years in a way without him.
00:38:46
Speaker 4: And even my mum was like, we basically, whilst he was still there, he was gone.
00:38:50
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:38:51
Speaker 1: So, like, we'd lost him two years ago.
00:38:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
00:38:53
Speaker 1: But, yeah, they had the funeral.
00:38:55
Speaker 2: But, yeah. Good on your nan.
00:38:56
Speaker 1: Eight weeks, yeah. She was going out on the cruise getting some.
00:38:58
Speaker 2: You reckon they were doing it?
00:38:59
Speaker 1: Oh, no, they were.
00:39:00
Speaker 7: Oh.
00:39:01
Speaker 1: They came out and stayed with us once, and my mum was like, oh, it's so disgusting.
00:39:05
Speaker 2: Well, you heard them.
00:39:06
Speaker 1: She could hear them. They both had their little Viagra pills. He had his Stiffy pills. I don't know what she took.
00:39:12
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:39:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no female one for that, is there?
00:39:14
Speaker 7: What?
00:39:15
Speaker 1: Surely there would be.
00:39:16
Speaker 7: No?
00:39:17
Speaker 2: No, they haven't come up with one, I don't think.
00:39:18
Speaker 1: Maybe just HRT or something.
00:39:20
Speaker 7: Oh, no.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: Human. H. Human. Nah. It's the hormone replacement therapy.
00:39:26
Speaker 2: Oh, gotcha.
00:39:27
Speaker 1: It's what women get when they're going through menopause.
00:39:28
Speaker 2: Menopause.
00:39:29
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
00:39:30
Speaker 1: Okay.
00:39:30
Speaker 2: Well, good on you, Nan. It's good to think of her sex life.

Speaker 2: Welcome. What do you want to chat about?
00:39:43
Speaker 5: I heard earlier that you guys were talking about unloyal people in specific work industry.
00:39:49
Speaker 1: Oh, yes.
00:39:50
Speaker 4: Well, there was a podcaster in the UK and she listed off an array of jobs where she feels like the people are the.
00:39:57
Speaker 6: Most likely to cheat. Yeah, like DJs was on there.
00:40:01
Speaker 1: PTs.
00:40:02
Speaker 3: Taxi drivers.
00:40:03
Speaker 2: Cab drivers.
00:40:04
Speaker 1: Cab drivers is weird.
00:40:05
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:40:06
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:40:07
Speaker 5: Well, I'm a DJ and I'm a very warm person.
00:40:10
Speaker 1: In my opinion. Do you have a partner? I do, yeah. Does he worry about you getting hit up?
00:40:17
Speaker 7: Yes, he does. He does.
00:40:19
Speaker 1: Maybe he's listening to this chick's podcast.
00:40:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, right. How old are you?
00:40:23
Speaker 10: 21.
00:40:24
Speaker 2: You're a 21-year-old DJ.
00:40:25
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.
00:40:26
Speaker 2: I reckon your boyfriend should be worried. I mean, come on. There's a lot of dudes out there in the clubs, yeah?
00:40:32
Speaker 1: In the clubs.
00:40:33
Speaker 7: Yeah, there is.
00:40:33
Speaker 5: Like, I get it, but like... So after I play a set, like, sometimes I'll have, like, guys come up to me and be like, yo, that was like a mad set.
00:40:41
Speaker 1: Oh, my God. And I'm like, okay, thanks.
00:40:42
Speaker 5: And then I just move on.
00:40:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
00:40:45
Speaker 4: But maybe you just haven't been approached by a guy who's super attractive or that.
00:40:50
Speaker 1: You're into yet.
00:40:51
Speaker 5: Well, like, there is attractive guys out there, but my boyfriend's more attractive.
00:40:54
Speaker 1: Oh, that's cute.
00:40:55
Speaker 2: I think the women are just better.
00:40:56
Speaker 6: A male DJ, a male 21-year-old DJ wouldn't be able to help himself.
00:41:01
Speaker 1: No, the amount of.
00:41:02
Speaker 4: opportunity that would present itself because women love a DJ.
00:41:07
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:41:08
Speaker 2: You're a good chick, Angie.
00:41:09
Speaker 1: Good girl, Angie. Stay loyal.
00:41:11
Speaker 2: All right. What about Beck?
00:41:12
Speaker 3: Hello?
00:41:13
Speaker 1: Hey, Beck.
00:41:15
Speaker 8: Hi.
00:41:15
Speaker 5: How are we?
00:41:16
Speaker 3: Good.
00:41:16
Speaker 1: How are you?
00:41:18
Speaker 5: Good. I was actually calling regarding the cost of children.
00:41:21
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
00:41:23
Speaker 6: $ 35, 000 a year according to the Parenthood Institute or something like that.
00:41:26
Speaker 3: That's rubbish.
00:41:26
Speaker 2: You're saying it's way more, Amy.
00:41:28
Speaker 7: Oh, 100%.
00:41:28
Speaker 1: It's more. What about you, Bec? Do you agree?
00:41:31
Speaker 5: Yeah, 100%. It's not just daycare that people are putting in. I've got one in daycare and an older one who.
00:41:37
Speaker 7: Does after-school activities. So there's football and there's guitar and swimming lessons. Yep. And not only that, you have to take time off work. Yep.
00:41:47
Speaker 8: So therefore you're not.
00:41:47
Speaker 7: Bringing in as much money to do these activities.
00:41:51
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:41:51
Speaker 4: I always say like obviously radio is quite good because you get survey breaks roughly around school holidays.
00:41:58
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:41:58
Speaker 4: Like they somewhat line up. And before that I was doing my own thing so I had the flexibility. But how do office workers, like a nine to five traditional job, With two parents working, what do they do for school holidays?
00:42:10
Speaker 1: Like, kids get 10, 11 weeks off school.
00:42:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you handle them?
00:42:13
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you how you handle them. You have to put them in bloody vacation care.
00:42:17
Speaker 2: Which costs more money. And it all costs money. Why don't you just buy them gaming consoles?
00:42:22
Speaker 1: And what, leave them at home?
00:42:23
Speaker 6: They're 6 and 7. CCTV.
00:42:25
Speaker 1: They're 6 and 7.
00:42:26
Speaker 2: CCTV in a room. Lock the room.
00:42:29
Speaker 1: This is, like, I hope to God you actually never have children. Yours are going to be in.
00:42:33
Speaker 4: Garbage bags, poking each other's eyes out with sticks.
00:42:37
Speaker 1: Eating schnitzel at two months old.
00:42:40
Speaker 2: Liza, hello. Hey, Liza.
00:42:41
Speaker 5: Hi, good morning, Marky. Good morning, Amy.
00:42:44
Speaker 6: Hi, good morning.
00:42:45
Speaker 2: What do you want to talk about?
00:42:46
Speaker 5: You were talking about how long should you wait between a partner passing and moving on.
00:42:52
Speaker 3: Oh, yes.
00:42:53
Speaker 6: A year was kind of the rule, but, you know, it depends, right?
00:42:59
Speaker 5: Well, my partner's been gone three years. I started trying to get on the apps. probably the end of last year, currently gave up just so hard.
00:43:08
Speaker 3: I know.
00:43:10
Speaker 5: But also for me, I've lost two partners in six years.
00:43:13
Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Oh, Liza, that's so sad.
00:43:16
Speaker 2: For all different reasons, obviously, Liza.
00:43:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was in a long-distance relationship with a gentleman in America, and I was getting ready to move over to America. And in August 2020, I had a massive heart attack, passed away. So with COVID, I couldn't travel, I couldn't say goodbye, nothing.
00:43:32
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so tragic.
00:43:34
Speaker 5: And then I met, reconnected with a gentleman that I'd known basically all my life, and he then... In 22 was diagnosed with cancer and then caught COVID pneumonia and I lost him in 2023.
00:43:47
Speaker 2: Wow. But you are willing to date again?
00:43:52
Speaker 5: I'm willing to date again, but the thing I find is because I'm a night shift worker and I work weekends, it's another burden. So not only have you got.
00:44:02
Speaker 4: You almost need to find a male who's a night shift worker, right? Because otherwise you've got just completely conflicting job hours.
00:44:13
Speaker 6: Good luck with finding someone. I know you said, Amy, though, if Ryan passed away, you just wouldn't date. You'd date, but you wouldn't remarry.
00:44:19
Speaker 1: I wouldn't remarry, yeah.
00:44:20
Speaker 2: You'd just have a toy boy.
00:44:22
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:44:23
Speaker 2: Real hot one?
00:44:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
00:44:24
Speaker 9: Young?
00:44:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, massage my feet.
00:44:26
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:44:27
Speaker 1: Feed me dinner.
00:44:28
Speaker 3: Yeah.
00:44:28
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:44:29
Speaker 2: Do things. But there's no love there.
00:44:31
Speaker 1: Use a dental dam.
00:44:32
Speaker 3: I'm joking.
00:44:35
Speaker 6: Throwback from an earlier comment on the show.
00:44:37
Speaker 1: I just wanted to drop that in there now that I know what it is.
00:44:40
Speaker 2: They're fun, aren't they?
00:44:41
Speaker 10: Are they?
00:44:43
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know.
00:44:44
Speaker 2: Well, no, they're not fun.
00:44:45
Speaker 3: I had to Google them.
00:44:46
Speaker 2: Did you look them up?
00:44:47
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:44:48
Speaker 1: I had to Google them as well. And then, yes, very weird.
00:44:52
Speaker 2: I don't know who uses them, but they're a thing.
00:44:54
Speaker 6: Dr.
00:44:54
Speaker 2: Kiss was talking about them. We're not being inappropriate. It's health. We're talking about women's health. Yes, this is the health advice.
00:45:00
Speaker 7: Yes.
00:45:00
Speaker 1: The dental dams are for the teeth anyway.
00:45:02
Speaker 6: He told one of our callers to use a dental dam. Go back and have a listen to the podcast.
00:45:07
Speaker 1: Did he?
00:45:08
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kiss Breakfast Podcast. Go and search it. You can hear it.
00:45:11
Speaker 2: He did.
00:45:11
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, because they had mycoplasma.
00:45:13
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he said you should use a dental dam.
00:45:15
Speaker 1: No, he did not. He said practice safe sex.
