บทถอดความฉบับเต็มของ ICYMI: Nepo Babies, Nostalgia & C*m Shots

conscious of only ever dating someone on her level financially because she didn't want someone to come in and try and use her for her family's money. But she just said it in a way that was so okay for her to say, whereas I feel like, you know, if a rich influencer was to say I'm not going to date nobody, then like people would be like, how dare. 00:05:29 Speaker 1: You say that? But the way that she says, I don't know. 00:05:32 Speaker 3: Maybe it's because she's so rich he can get away with saying it. But I've just really enjoyed her content popping up in my for you page. She's like a Disney princess, like living in a castle. She's just really intriguing, and I'm like, fuck, imagine just being born into that amount of wealth where wearing a one hundred thousand dollars outfit on a day to day is like the norm for you crazy but also goals. 00:06:01 Speaker 2: And I love that. She was almost my royal flush as well, specifically the try on of the necklace, because I thought she's like she was like humbly out of touch if humbly is a word, yeh, being humble about it. But she was like, I have this Van Cleef one of a kind diamond necklace for my wedding and I haven't even tried it on yet, so let's try it on together. 00:06:21 Speaker 3: She hasn't even tried it on, just sitting at home. 00:06:23 Speaker 2: It's like an exclusive Van Cleef piece that she got off the runway or something. It was like only on the runway and then given to her or something. And I was like, Okay, that is the most out of touch thing I've ever heard. But why is it okay for you to say that that is so interesting? What good points? God? Were good? I know. Why do people listen to other podcasts? 00:06:44 Speaker 3: Like, seriously, everyone needs to listen to high scrollers. 00:06:55 Speaker 1: Tell you what another thing that I used to have when we were kids. 00:06:58 Speaker 3: I had a dolly that you could hold her hand and record something and then she would say it back. But it was just a recording of my voice. And I remember I used to take it into my cupboard. 00:07:11 Speaker 2: It still be good. 00:07:13 Speaker 3: I used to take it into my cupboard and I used to swear into the doll so that I could hear it so fun and I'd be going in my cupboard, gone dick it. 00:07:24 Speaker 1: Going bitch, and then it would say it back. 00:07:28 Speaker 2: Also, can I just say this thought has just come to my brain. Cancel me if this is wrong, But why the fuck do we give little girls babies to play with Why is baby born a thing? Why are we straight away? And you know what, we get the little girls a kitchen cabinet and they in the tension. Oh my god, this is blowing my mind. They've got a baby, they're in the kit Sometimes they play shops and they've got the cash register to be a shop assistant. 00:08:05 Speaker 1: Like we're getting groomed. 00:08:07 Speaker 2: From the get go. You are working and being a mother and getting no pay for it either. Wow, that's just blowing my mind. Why haven't

we had that discussion before the fact that we literally give like two year old girls a baby born and saying, there you go. 00:08:23 Speaker 3: And I remember getting a baby born and being so excited, and I remember like one year, I didn't get it because I think you've got to be. 00:08:30 Speaker 1: Three and above. 00:08:31 Speaker 3: First of all, three you can fairly fucking talk when you're three. 00:08:37 Speaker 1: But I remember like, I mustn't have got it for. 00:08:39 Speaker 3: My third birthday, and I remember being like so upset that I didn't get the baby born. And I remember going to Big w with my mom and going straight to the baby born aisle and looking at them in the big plastic thing and trying to touch it. 00:08:52 Speaker 1: And you could get the ones that you could press their hand and it would like cry. 00:08:56 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:08:57 Speaker 3: I remember I finally got the baby born for it must have been my fourth birthday, and I did a photo shoot with me with the baby born, like because I was so excited. Yeah, like me opening the baby born box. 00:09:09 Speaker 2: I would love to know the psychology behind, like as in the difference between girlies who got a baby born and girlies who didn't. And I wonder if it genuinely not even being funny, I wonder if the girlies who got a baby born are more or less successful, or more or less driven, or more like getting paid. Like imagine if a study came out and if you had baby borns, you were getting paid more or you were getting paid, do you know what I mean? 00:09:35 Speaker 1: Like, I wonder what if it's natural? 00:09:37 Speaker 2: So like I'm also looking up how much a baby born is these days. Oh, they're only sixty nine dollars at target for forty three centimeter pink baby born. 00:09:46 Speaker 3: I wonder as well if it's natural or if we are shown it because I remember being little and wanting a baby born so much because I wanted to look after it, like it's in our nature right for women to be like cares and like nurturing and everything. 00:10:03 Speaker 2: But I wonder that so, but that young I just. 00:10:07 Speaker 3: Wonder if it's in us naturally to want to put the baby doll in the prem and wheel it around, or if like our moms or arnies or whoever, show us that that's what you do with a baby, or do we naturally know? Surely we don't naturally know how to do that, because you'd feed it the food you got, like the powdered food, and you mix it with water. 00:10:24 Speaker 2: So I'm looking here, so it is three plus? Does say that it's three plus? You've got Hannah? 00:10:30 Speaker 1: Did you have a baby born? 00:10:32 Speaker 2: Nah? Hannah didn't have a baby born? 00:10:35 Speaker 1: Did you want one? 00:10:36 Speaker 2: Though? 00:10:36 Speaker 1: Hannah? 00:10:37 Speaker 2: Nah? Did you even know what a baby born? Was? A farm? And this is the thing. 00:10:43 Speaker 1: Did you even have big w near you on the farm? 00:10:46 Speaker 2: See? 00:10:46 Speaker 3: Nah? See that's how I knew about baby borns because we would always go to big w every week. 00:10:51 Speaker 2: So this has I mean, look at this, this really is a bit of a cult here. So the original baby born that you can get at the moment, they've got a names. This one's name's Emma. So Emma is forty three centimeters. She comes with a baby card which has all of the details on it. She comes with a sticker, a bracelet, a beanie, a onesie, and then a diaper, a potty to go posh, yeah, a dummy, a bib A I can't see a bib. No, she gets a bottle and a plate and a spoon, so that's what comes in. But then you can get a starter set which comes with the bib and a rattle and something else. You can get a baby born trike, so you can buy a forty five dollar bike for the baby. 00:11:41 Speaker 1: And I had a little mini pram that it went in. Did it fit in perfectly? 00:11:44 Speaker 2: Which the trike seems a bit irresponsible because you wouldn't put I mean, how old is a baby born? 00:11:51 Speaker 1: Is it meant to be months? 00:11:52 Speaker 2: Like, it's meant to be three months old, right, and you're putting it on a trike. Well that's not right. 00:11:58 Speaker 3: I've got babies looking after babies, and you're right, Matt. This is a really interesting conversation and I'm surprised we haven't had it yet because it is a strange concept because again, like, okay, I'm sure some little boys get given a baby born doll, but they're not shoved on little boys like they are little girls. 00:12:19 Speaker 2: Well, to be fair, it's not shoved on like I definitely agree babybornes aren't shoved on boys as much. But you think about like I'm looking at the I'm looking at the Target website now, and when you're just typing kids toys and let me type in boys toys, the first thing that comes up is construction stuff to be a tradey. So maybe they're being conditioned to be a trade. 00:12:43 Speaker 1: I wonder how different the world would be. 00:12:46 Speaker 3: I know we're doing this again, like, how do you home would the world be without the internet if little baby toys that are babies didn't exist? 00:12:55 Speaker 2: Now, do you want to know something funny about this Target website? On this team is doing their due diligence, I will say, because I'm looking here wooden Deluxe kitchen. So I've got the kitchen with the sink and the oven and the everything, and there's a child there poor and a little tea or something for the guests. At the kitchen. We've got a we've got a cleaning toy set with a broom and a mop and a duster and a dust pan. There's a child there playing with that, and what else did I see? I saw one more here, Oh, the vacuum, the toy vacuum cleaner. There's a child there with the vacuum cleaner. All three kids boys. Oh, so I thought that was interesting. 00:13:39 Speaker 3: Also, I want to know these child models because how old are these kids? 00:13:43 Speaker 1: And these photos on the Target website. 00:13:45 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm saying two three? 00:13:48

Speaker 3: What are the rules surrounding them being models and getting paid for these photo shoots? 00:13:55 Speaker 2: So there are a lot more rules these days, and it includes Super at all they getting Super and all. Yeah, do you have to. 00:14:04 Speaker 1: You have to be to get Super? 00:14:07 Speaker 2: No, if you're working, you can get and if you do, yeah, And they have actors and models actually have, especially child once. They only brought these in I want to say, four years ago a new thing about Super. And I'm not across it completely, but trust me, there's systems in place now. See when I was a child, I did some modeling and things like that, and I mean, I don't think I ever saw any of the money. And if I did see any of the money, it probably went in med Dolomites account and as we know, got no idea where that is. I think mums spent that in the divorce. I don't know. So you know there's there's mystery after mystery after mystery there. I got no idea, but I know that recently the rules have changed. Also, I'm looking through the Target toys section now and we've gotten to the weird section. 00:15:03 Speaker 1: The weird section. 00:15:04 Speaker 2: Yeah see, because now I'm looking at rope. You can just buy rope, and then here's a chainsaw for sixteen dollars and a weed trimmer for twenty dollars. And I think we're getting to the weird part. 00:15:24 Speaker 3: Will. 00:15:25 Speaker 2: I just think there's a difference between like a cup of hammer and a screwdriver and a fucking chainsaw for a three year old? You know what I mean? 00:15:33 Speaker 1: Oh, I thought you were saying that we're out of the kids section. 00:15:36 Speaker 2: No, we're still in the kid section. They're selling a twenty dollar chainsaw. That's what I'm saying, is the trade e's and the babies. Will now that I'm looking at a plastic chainsaw, I mean, and a rope this is just a this is just a mega knotted rope rainbow. You're just playing with rope and chainsaws. Who's on the Target marketing team Jigsaw? 00:16:00 Speaker 3: Like? 00:16:01 Speaker 2: What is going on? 00:16:03 Speaker 1: Anyway, the point is, this is a very interesting topic. 00:16:07 Speaker 2: Is baby born? What the fuck? You know? I never really come up to Newcastle and this I was actually on a phone call and because the phone call had come up on my you know, car play, my maps wasn't on the screen because I was on the phone call and I was gas bagging about a job that I have to do, and I missed my exit, so I had to keep going. And I don't know which way it re routed me, but it rerouted me round around around. I just wanted to say, and I hope you understand this reference, and this is very niche for anyone who lives in Newcastle or Newcastle surrounds. But I had to drive through Hexham. Yeah you know Hexam. I'm familiar. Good. I had to drive through Hexham. Now, if anyone from Newcastle knows Hexham, Yeah, there's a bowling club or something. 00:17:00 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hexham Bowling Class. 00:17:01 Speaker 2: And they have got this mascot out the front like this big. You know sometimes if it's like the Penrith Panthers, they might have a big panther out the front. Hexham. What was the bowling club? Yeah? I know what a mascot? A giant bloody thing out the front of all the animals. It could be it's a fucking mosquito. And I don't know whether you know the backstory, but I need to hear it. 00:17:24 Speaker 3: I don't know the backstory, but its name is Ozzie the Mozzi. Yeah, that's camp and Hexham like isn't really Newcastle. It's like if you're leaving Newcastle, you'll see it. And it's a pretty big main road. So everyone just knows Ozzy the Mozzi, like when we were kids, if we ever drove past that being like Muzzy like just so excited. I don't know the backstory, but I'm going to guess the reason for it is Hexham is in an area that has. 00:17:50 Speaker 1: Lots of swamp land. Okay, So I don't know if it's to do with the fact that there's lots of Mozzi's there. Yeah, probably it's like in that swamp flooding zone. 00:17:58 Speaker 2: That's not a very good point, is it. Like come to our bowling clubbing at bitten By Mosquitoes. 00:18:03 Speaker 1: I've never been there. We should go there one just for a. 00:18:07 Speaker 2: Good r for a live recording, Yes, live recording with Ossi the Mozzi. I wonder if they have a little mascot that people can dress up in. You know, yeah, it is really random. You got to double down on that ship, like I reckon, Like, yeah, if they're gonna go with the mosquito theme, you've got to go all in, like full naff, go for it. 00:18:26 Speaker 3: I feel like now that we're talking about mozzies, I feel like I'm not seeing mozzies that much. 00:18:31 Speaker 2: These days come out in summer, but like it's. 00:18:33 Speaker 3: Warm right now and I don't really I haven't really seen them. But I'm seeing a lot of flies. 00:18:37 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's there's way more flies. And I saw someone on the news talking about why, Well, I don't watch the news, but it came up on my TikTok. They literally did a whole special on is there more flies? Okay, apparently there's no more flies. Like it's not there's not that there's no it's just that it's been so long that this actually apparently happens every year, where people go, oh, there's so many flies. 00:19:00 Speaker 1: Because we just haven't seen them for a while. Yes, but where did the flies go in winter? I need to google this. 00:19:05 Speaker 2: I think like they probably hibernate. Go Google girl. They might hibernate. They might you know, be larvae or something. You know, they're probably in the swamps or something. But you know, cicadas they only you know when they're like screaming. And remember last summer or the summer before, they were so freaking loud, like all you could hear was sicada's. They only mate like every four years or something, and that's when they get real loud because it's like the mating call. Don't quite me on this, everyone, I'm not

David Attenborough. I'm just recalling what i've heard and it could be wrong. And the other thing is, you know when you like walk under a under a tree and all the sicada's piss on you? No, yeah, you know when you walk under a tree and sicada's are in the tree and you get wet, like got droplets on you? No? 00:19:50 Speaker 1: Oh, just me all right, never experienced. 00:19:53 Speaker 2: It's not Pierce, it's Come. It's Sakata. Come. They're mating above you and they're they're screaming and they're coming everywhere. I am. So if you a tree with skada's on top of it and you get little drops on you, that's the carda cum shots. Sorry on your life. I mean google it, like, don't quote me. 00:20:14 Speaker 1: But I'm never walking on a tree again. 00:20:18 Speaker 2: And we've got our episode title of the day, Sakarta cum Shots. Right, it's time for everyone's favorite theme song to play. Or maybe it has just played already. I don't know. It's time for Matt's Round of the week. Matt's rid of the week. 00:20:48 Speaker 1: Okay, what's your rant about this week? 00:20:49 Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you I love T K Max as most people know. 00:20:57 Speaker 3: See, I've gone a couple of times because I see everyone to talking about it and like it might be just the one in Newcastle, but like I can never find anything good there. 00:21:05 Speaker 2: Oh but where are you looking? Because you've got to go to the homewhere section, Okay, and you'll never find any hidden gems anywhere else. Okay, Home wears Candle aisle, you know, end of the aisles. They've got special special buyers and things. 00:21:20 Speaker 3: Okay, reduced to clean to give it another chance, because I've gone a few times and just walked out and thought, what the fuck is this? 00:21:24 Speaker 2: You'll have to go with me because it is a treasure trove. Like I always walk out with something that you just wouldn't find anywhere else. Okay, it is fantastic. 00:21:33 Speaker 1: Is it a secondhand shop? 00:21:35 Speaker 2: It's kind of like an upmarket reject shop. Okay, yeah, So I do have a bad word to say about them, because every time I go and I get a bunch of things, they ask, do you need a bag for this? Now? I absolutely need a bag for all the things that I'm buying. Do you know what they say? Every single time? They say, sorry, we actually you don't have any bags at the moment. We're out of stock of plastic bags. But we do have those bags just behind you, the tote bags for you know, a dollar, two dollars, three dollars, five dollars, depending on which one you get, which size, and which design, which fabric, whatever. And I go to Tkmax quite often, and so I noticed when he asked me last time that I went, he said, do you need a bag? And said yes, please, I've got I've got ten things in front of me. Of course I need a freaking bag, mate, And I said yes please, and he gave me the same line again. He said, well, we don't have any plastic bags, but you can buy one of those ones behind you. I turned around and looked at them. They're all fugly every time as well. By the way, they. 00:22:45 Speaker 1: Don't need any more tot bags. 00:22:46 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I've bought so many from cotton On over the years. 00:22:49 Speaker 2: Nah. So then it hit me and I thought to myself, he says this every fucking time I'm here. So I turned straight back to him and I looked him dead in the eyes, and I said, you never have any plastic bags, now that I think about it, And he said, oh yeah. I said, do you ever have any plastic bags? Have you ever actually had any plastic bags? He said, oh, yeah, we have. And I said, because I think that it's a head office thing that you need to be selling these tote bags over here, and you're getting your KPIs up. So I don't think it's you either. I think it's your manager isn't even putting the plastic bags on the floor because your store is trying to win the most KPIs, the most bags. Because you know right now that I have to buy a bag. There's no way I'm carrying these ten things that I've had in my shopping basket the whole time in the store. There's no way I'm able to carry these things anywhere. So you know, I need a bag, and that would be the case for most of your shoppers and your customers. But you don't have any plastic bags. You never have any plastic bags, so we're all forced to pay the two dollars for one of the reusable bags, meaning that you look better. It's head office because your store has hundreds of bags being sold. And this motherfucker looked me down in the eye and admitted that that is what they do in their store. So next time you go to TK max and they say we don't have any bags, pull them up on it and go, you never have any bags? Is this just so we have to buy these ones so that your kprs get. 00:24:20 Speaker 1: Up work hard. 00:24:21 Speaker 2: I know, I know. I wasn't mean about it, like it was cheeky, like I was being cheeky with him. I wasn't telling him off. Yeah, but I was like, now I'm gonna pull you up on it and go you never have any bags, So I reckon, it's your kprs, you got to you got to hit your targets. And yeah, he admitted it to me. That's exactly what they're doing. So TK Max you can fuck right off for that. That's my runt. Of the week is fuck you. I will continue to stop shopping the store, though I will come back, but you can get absolutely fucked. I hate you, but I will still continue to shop with you. I just need to remember to take a bag with me, because every time I'm going about twelve two dollars TK Max bags now, and they're all fucking ugly.
